As with the first poll, voted no on anybody who already has a figure.
Otherwise voted yes on a few characters I think look cool. Think i have about a dozen yes's between the two.
After just dishing out the cash for non-attendee Beast Man & Kobra Khan....oof.
I actually hope they never do figures again.
No please, save the resources for figures.
Came in to say no but, seeing the image... cool, I'm in!
I certainly would buy a few Sunders to make more Horde Troopers.
20% reduction would be fine with me. i really don't care if a figure fits through the door or not.
I'd like keeping the cost down to be top priority. Stripping the audio features would be great...
I'd only be interested in new characters. No mini-comic variants at all please.
Tuskador, Dare, Anti He-man
Still waiting for:
Dylamug, Bravestarr
If it's the same graphic designer as "Art of He-man" I expect have the comic panels to be cut off :P
Soooo... he-man carries around the symbol of his greatest enemy on his shoulder? Right. Next, Captain America will be redesign with a swastika on his shield :hmtung:
Anyways, MOTU is my favorite...
To me, one of the dullest figures in the line. She might as well be labelled "Generic Villager".
Hope: Filmation Dare
Dread: Filmation variant of anything.
I paid no tax at all on my SDCC order.
Cool, I am happy to get a Dare figure if he looks like the design on the last cover. Would prefer if he was blonde but, what're you gonna do. ;)
Just got my copy.
Man, lots of great art in this book, but I'm so disappointed in the layout. So much art is cut off just for the sake of being "designy". Like the Thunderpunch He-man and BA...
I'll take whatever else they make, but he's the only one I'll miss if he isn't made.
Looking pretty cool. I'll definitely be displaying them in leg mode.
Doh, just saw Pixel Dan's reminder tweet about this. They sold out while I was filling out the Capcha.
Man, too bad it's April Fools. I'd rather have even dull Eternian villagers than any more variants.
200x Prince Adam
I actually don't remember the character from the show, but looks pretty cool!
Standor, Mo-larr
- Hate these joke characters that break the fourth wall
- He might as well be a joke character
Sir Laserlot
- Uninspired concept, lame name, dull design
I'd say mythical is certainly right. At the moment industry estimates put Eternity War #1 at selling only 12,000 copies. (a drop of 6,000 copies after issue #1, which got a boost because of a variant...
As Hawke is a common enough name, I'm guessing someone else already has a trademark on toys. Connor Hawke at DC perhaps.
So I figure either way the figure would be named Delora.
None please.
The DC designs need to be killed. With fire. Lots of it.
Reissues ae fine fore folks who missed figures, and if Mattel thinks it makes financial sense.
Do NOT want any 2.0's of any characters.
Filmation Dare looks petty cool, and not a lot of new parts needed.
I'd definitely like any version of Dare over a variant of an existing character. (Filmation Teela, Despara, 200X-style...
Oof, Filmation Teela. Pretty disappointing waste of a slot for me. We've already had two Teelas, make a new character.
Also nothing wrong with scalpers, they are just as important to the line as the rest of us ;)
DC MOTUC figures would pretty much be my ultimate nightmare for the line. Just awful designs, pretty much at the bottom of all interpretations of MOTU for me.

Orfila Vineyards & WineryRead MoreLike his father, the former governor of the Argentinian state of Mendoza, Alejandro Orfila chose a life of diplomacy. From 1946 until the early 80s, his various public service roles included Argentine Minister Plenipotentiary to the United States and Argentine Ambassador to Japan. But like his grandfather, a winemaker whose 1905-established winery stands to this day, Alejandro harbored a lifelong love of viticulture. In 1994, Alejandro finally pursued that passion by founding Orfila Vineyards & Winery, a 70-acre hillside estate nestled within a 10,000-acre agricultural preserve in the San Pasqual Valley. These days, winemaker Justin Mund oversees production on the estate, where grapes grow only 15 miles from the Pacific Ocean. Using both the estate's grapes and others from the California coast, Justin crafts wines that have earned more than 1,300 medals in national and international competitions since the winery's founding. Guests can sample said wines in a tasting room overlooking the estate, as well as a second location in Downtown Julian. Besides tastings, Orfila hosts events ranging from live concerts to the annual Grape Stomp festival, where folks gather to watch traditional wine-making and grapes gather to hold their annual Shirley Jackson-esque lottery.13455 San Pasqual Rd.Escondido, CA US

Dried Apricots' Health Benefits
By Soon Chai
You can eat apricots raw, cooked, dried, or canned. But dried apricots will benefit you even more.
In making dried apricots, fresh apricots are stripped of their water content without tampering with their nutrient qualities. And do you know that 5 pounds of fresh apricots produce only one pound of dried apricots?
For this reason, dried apricots carry a much higher concentration level of nutrients than any other forms.
But the goodness doesn't stop here.
They are also rich sources of beta carotene (plant form of vitamin A) - a fat-soluble nutrient found in dark green leafy vegetables and fruits like carrots, sweet potatoes, and cantaloupe. However, if you drink canned apricot juice, you'll get less than 50% beta carotene of the dried form.
You can also obtain potassium, iron, calcium, silicon, phosphorus, and vitamin C from apricots.
Despite their high sugar content and calories level over the fresh, they are nonetheless the preferred choice as a compact and convenient source of nutrients.
Organic Dried Apricots
Have you ever come across the brown dried apricots apart from the more commonly seen orange ones?
Their difference in colors can tell you which one is tastier.
You might also wonder why their colors are different. Here's the reason.
Non-organic apricots are treated with sulfur dioxide before drying in order to prevent the fruits from oxidation, thus preserving their rich orange color.
This chemically-processed treatment produces sulfites and may in turn trigger asthma attack in certain people. Therefore, if you are allergic to sulfites, avoid orange dried apricots.
Look out for the brown organic dried apricots, they are the healthy ones without sulfites that also carry a yummy caramel taste.
So now you know the difference. Which would you rather buy, the unpleasant-looking brown or deceptively nice-looking orange? Whatever your choice is, remember to brush or rinse your teeth after eating them because dried apricots are stickier than fresh ones.
Other Benefits of Apricots
Treat Constipation – Apricots can act as gentle laxative due to its cellulose and pectin content. Hence, if you suffer from chronic constipation, consume 6 to 8 apricots per day should help improve your condition.
Ease Indigestion – As they produce an alkaline reaction on the body system, they can help you to digest better if you take some before meal. Just make sure you don't take too much so as not to disturb your proper meal consumption.
Good for Anemia – Anemia is a condition whereby the blood has a lower-than-normal concentration of red blood cells (RBCs) or the RBCs have a below average amount of hemoglobin. This condition is most commonly caused by iron deficiency. Since dried apricots contain high content of iron, they're usually included in the treatment of Anemia.
Fight Fevers – Apricot juice with glucose or honey can help cool your body during fever. It can also quench your thirst, eliminate the waste products from your body, tone up your eyes, stomach, liver, heart and nerves by supplying vitamins and minerals.
Treat Skin Diseases – You can use apricot leaves to treat scabies, eczema, sunburn and itching of your skin due to cold exposure.
Avoid Fat Deposits – As apricots are low in calories and fats, you can purée canned apricots in a blender until smooth and use it as substitute for oil, prunes or applesauce in high-calorie, high-fat recipes.
Despite its vast beneficial contribution to our health, I wanted to bring to your attention that over-consuming apricot seeds raw can fatally poison you. Since 1957, Turkey, a big apricot country, has reported 9 cases of lethal poisoning from apricot seeds. Scary, huh?
If you've been loving the seeds for years, it's time to kick that craving. Preventive measures on how many seeds a person can take before they gets poisoned are still unclear. So, better be safe than be sorry.
Selection & Storage of Apricots
Ripe apricots – Choose ones whose surfaces are smooth, plump, firm but not hard. The color should be nice yellow to orange and exude a sweet fragrance.
As ripe apricots are easily perishable, store them in the fridge and eat them within two days.
If you need to keep them through the year, you should cut the ripe fruits into half, wrap them up in baking sheet and freeze. Only remove the portion you need from the freezer.
As they are soft and easily bruised, handle them with care.
Unripe apricots – They can be kept in a paper bag with an apple in cool place away from sunlight and they will ripen within two to four days.
When they yield to gentle pressure, they are ready to eat.
Wash apricots only when you want to eat them.
Preparing Apricots
Ripe apricots are delicate and soft so be extra gentle when you peel them.
One tactic is to leave them in boiling water for just 15 to 20 seconds, before transferring them to cold/ice water. The skin should slip right off using a knife.
To halve apricots, cut down to the pit around the longitudinal seam and twist the two halves to separate them.
To prevent cut or peeled apricots from browning, dip them into diluted lemon juice.

I am converting my old Specialized frame into an SS and during the sanding/painting stage I came across an issue I wanted to get some feedback on. The frame was originally setup for canti brakes. Well the old brakes are indeed old and need to be replaced. I have a set of Vs that I was going to install and realized that the cable stops are not set up for Vs. So I began to ponder my options. I know that they sell bolt on cable stops so I could install one and go that way. I have also been toying with the idea of running full housing. Are there any other options?

* Glivec found to dramatically reduce the risk of cancer returning after surgery for Kit-positive gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST)
* Patients receiving placebo in this trial will now be offered Glivec
* Global regulatory submissions planned for use of Glivec as adjuvant therapy in GIST patients following surgery to remove primary tumor
* Glivec already approved as effective therapy for patients with advanced metastatic or inoperable Kit-positive GIST
BASEL, Switzerland, April 12, 2007 - Investigators will begin offering Glivec® (imatinib)[*] to patients receiving placebo in a major North American clinical trial after after an interim analysis showed participants with Kit-positive gastrointestinal stromal tumors treated with Glivec following surgery were significantly less likely to experience a return of their cancer compared to those not taking this innovative therapy.
The interim analysis showed no recurrence of cancer in approximately 97% of patients given Glivec for a year after surgery to remove tumors, compared to approximately 83% of those who underwent surgery but received a placebo. The investigators made these results public because the study had met its primary endpoint in terms of the rate of recurrence-free survival.
The study involving more than 600 patients was sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), which is part of the US National Institutes of Health (NIH). It was conducted at multiple cancer centers in the US and Canada, and was led by the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group. Novartis supplied Glivec for use in the study, and also provided partial funding under a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with NCI to support the clinical development of Glivec.
Glivec has already been confirmed as an effective therapy in its
approved use for patients with advanced metastatic or unresectable

Mama's Family
- Episode Description
Trying to update the church's phone directory is hard enough, but having to do it with everyone running in and out is impossible. But fortunately for Mama her wishes of a quite house are answered. First Bubba announces that he's pledging a fraternity called "Sigma Alpha Pie" or "SAP" and will be away all weekend. Then Iola asks Mama to watch her goldfish for the weekend while she takes her parents on a trip. Vint gets a call next and he and Naomi are invited to use a friends cabin all weekend. Mama anticipates a few days of peace all alone, but after finishing the update on the phone directory and realizing the Tv is on the blink and not being able to read, she is totally consumed with boredom. So much so that she starts talking to the goldfish, while also over feeding him. Not to mention reorganizing the kitchen is a complete failure as she ends up out on the front Porch "Singing in the Rain" literally. Mama can't wait for the family to get back and she prepares a big turkey to welcome them home. But Vint and Naomi go straight to bed in an attempt to recapture the megic of the weekend. Then Bubba, who has just become a "SAP", comes in and also goes to bed, seems he's tired and full from eating worms and other assorted items. Lastly Iola arrives to pick up her goldfish, but she can't stay cause her mother got a rash and has to be rubbed down every twenty minutes. So Mama's all alone again.moreless

Following the announcement from
Tower Group International, Ltd.
) last week, that it would postpone its second quarter earnings
release date, the rating agency A.M. Best Co. had taken a
negative rating action on the company.
The rating agency has put the ratings of the subsidiaries of
Tower Group under review with negative outlook, This includes the
financial strength ratings (FSR) of A- (Excellent) and issuer
credit ratings (ICR) of "a-" of the pooled and reinsured members
of the Tower US Pool (Tower); bbb-" as well as the debt rating of
"bbb-" on $142.5 million 5.00% senior convertible notes, due 2014
of the intermediate holding company, Tower Group, Inc; the FSR of
A- and ICR of "a-" of CastlePoint Reinsurance Company, Ltd.
The negative rating action also reflects the rating agency's
concern about an anticipated prior-year loss reserve charge of
approximately $60 million to $110 million pre-tax. The company's
results might suffer from reserve leverage and the increased
uncertainty with respect to future reserve charges.
However, the rating agency is confident that despite the
reserve charge, Tower's risk- adjusted capital will remain at
levels supportive of its current investment grade
Tower's ratings will remain under the agency's scanner.
Further rating action will take place after gaining enhanced
clarity about the company's reserve position.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second quarter is currently
pegged at 49 cents per share. In the year-ago quarter Tower Group
had reported loss of 34 cents per share.
Tower Group presently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Property

Jordan Caron and Milan Lucic scored, and Tim Thomas stopped 33 shots on Thursday night to lead the Boston Bruins to a 2-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens. Carey Price made 28 saves for Montreal, which lost to Boston for the third straight time and fell to 3-8 since Randy Cunneyworth took over as coach. Yannick Weber scored for the Canadiens. Montreal won the first two matchups against the defending Stanley Cup champions, winning home-and-home games at the end of October. But since then the Bruins have won 25 of 30 games. The game lacked the usual intensity of a matchup between the Original Six rivals - to the point where the crowd decided to entertain itself in the third period with derogatory chants about Tim Tebow, the Denver Broncos quarterback who will face the New England Patriots on Saturday. But just a few minutes later, P.K. Subban elbowed David Krejci near the benches and Bruins defenseman Andrew Ference quickly came over to intervene. Ference was given four minute...

When I arrived on French soil six years ago, I could order an orange juice in a café and purchase a bus ticket, but that was about it.
Since that time I've had various French tutors, bought miracle courses on CD and forced myself to plough through newspapers and magazines in French. Even so, I would still describe my skills on a good day as veering wildly between reasonable and abysmal.
Stress doesn't help. Chatting with a French friend is fine, but get into a spot of bother and suddenly I can barely string two syllables together.
For someone almost too used to the sound of my own voice (I'm an ex-teacher) and being fairly dextrous in my mother tongue, at
times it's as if someone has lopped off a big part of my identity.
While I do have the language skills required to organise my finances at the bank, arrange a play-date for my children and have a parent-teacher meeting at the school (although my brain often aches after such encounters), it's the subtleties of language that I miss.
For example, if my neighbour comes around when I'm particularly overworked, or have to make a phone call, it's difficult to extract myself without risking offence. Try as I might, when in the moment, I'm faced with a choice of saying something direct such as "I need to go now," or standing and repeating "ouis" of interest as she regales me with information about the state of her nervous system.
Neighbourly niceties aside, it's the ability to argue that I miss the most. I was particularly frustrated last week when, having accidentally parked in the wrong place when attending my daughter's school for a meeting, I was purposefully wedged in by two militant minibus drivers. When I asked the front one (politely, and in French) if he would move forward and let me out (apologising and explaining that I hadn't realised it was bus area) he refused, and I was left in tears of frustration, whereas in the UK I'd have let him have it with both barrels… verbally speaking.
Like many, I've had to accept the fact that, although my French improves week on week, I will probably never be as proficient in my second language.
That said, when I think of some of the angry emails or verbal snipes I used to fire off when I was in a challenging situation in my homeland (often looked back on with much regret), I can at least be sure that here I won't get into any situations on the back of my fiery disposition.
Because although all my self-righteous impulses told me to attack the bus driver over this unfair imprisonment, later reflection led me to conclude that – after all – I had been in the wrong and, despite the drivers' behaviour being a little mean-spirited, I only had to wait a few minutes for the bus to depart anyway.
So perhaps this delay between my brain and my mouth isn't such a bad thing after all. And perhaps sometimes I'm better off censored than incensed.
After all, I moved here for a quiet life.

Le fils de l'épicier (The Grocer's Son)
For 30-year-old Antoine Sforza, it isn't that "you can't go home again" as much as it's "you shouldn't go home again." In the film Le fils de l'épicier (The Grocer's Son), Sforza is living a meager life in the city when his father falls ill. Sforza's forced to return home to his rural village to take over his dad's duties as a traveling grocer. The only bright spot in the situation is Claire, an attractive neighbor who has tagged along for the trip. Sforza is out of step with his neighbors (his city ways are offensive to their rural sensibilities), at odds with his family and losing his connection to Claire. And just when he thinks things can't get any worse, they do. 7 p.m. University of Houston, Clear Lake, 2700 Bay Area Boulevard. For information, call 281-283-7600 or visit www.uhcl.edu/movies. $3.75.

What were the signs and symptoms you saw in your child if they have it?
Auditory Processing Disorder
Posted 10/11/2012
alisonmul, I came upon this board by random wandering, but I was wondering if your ABR tested for something called Auditory Neuropathy? It is different from APD. It can have weird audiogram and ABR results, but normal OAEs. The people who have it don't hear things the same way that we do. The risk factors that come to mind first are hyperbilirubinemia (jaundice) and premature birth. If your speech/audiology team is still not sure what is going on, ask them to do an ABR to specifically evaluate for Auditory Neuropathy, not hearing levels. I am an audiologist, so that is why your post caught my attention.
We know what the fox says....

Jordan Lynch is 24-3 as the NIU Huskies' starting quarterback in two seasons, including a 12-1 mark in 2013. He has one game remaining as he will lead NIU into the 2013 San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl against Utah State on December 26, 2013.
But first, it's off to New York City for the bright lights and big stage of the Heisman trophy presentation. Yes, Jordan Lynch has brought Mid-Major Northern Illinois to the national media stage twice. The first time was last year when he quarterbacked the Huskies to a MAC Championship and a BCS Bowl appearance. Where they were utterly destroyed by Florida State in the Orange Bowl. FSU should win over NIU by a healthy margin again on Saturday night, as Seminoles QB Jameis Winston will slaughter everyone. Jordan Lynch is the first Huskie player to be selected as a finalist for the trophy, but he won't win. He might not even finish second either.
Florida State QB Jameis Winston (how has no one has created a Jameis Winston parody song set to Rihanna's "I'll drink to that"? That one line "Let the Jameson sink in" in the tune just writes itself) win it, but Lynch for 6 is only the third player from the Mid-American Conference to be named a finalist along with Randy Moss (1997) and Chad Pennington (1999), both from Marshall.
No MAC player has ever won the Heisman.
The other finalists are Alabama QB AJ McCarron, Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel (under-the-radar guy, he's very obscure, THINK OF THE BRAND JOHNNY!), Boston College running back Andre Williams and Auburn RB Tre Mason. Manziel won the award last year, if he wins this year, which he won't, he would be just the second two-time Heisman winner in college football history. Archie Griffin of Ohio State is the first and only.
The only FBS player in the country who is his team's first option both as a passer and as a runner, Jordan Lynch was named MAC West Offensive Player of the Week a record eight times this year while compiling 4,557 yards of total offense on 1,881 rushing and 2,676 passing yards. He gained over 300 yards of total offense in 11 of the Huskies' 13 games in 2013 (all except blowout wins over Purdue and UMass when he did not play fourth quarter).
"If you can play football, you can play, it doesn't matter what level it is," Lynch said on the media conference call yesterday previewing his Heisman trip. "
"No matter where you go, you can be a contender for the Heisman, if you can play football, they'll look at you," Jordan Lynch said. I asked him who has most looking forward to meeting in the NYC and what he thinks the highlight of his first visit to New York City will be.
It should be really exciting for the Chicago product and Mt. Carmel graduate. All trips to the media capital of the world, well the just plain capital of the world always are.
"His body of work speaks for itself. That's the first thing, this is for him. We're super proud of him," said NIU Coach Rod Carey.
"It gets us on the stage where we haven't been and that's a good thing for the university, and when we can have that stage we like it. It gets our name out there and puts us on the map" NIU Coach Rod Carey
Former NIU Coach Jerry Kill (now with Minnesota) was the only one to give Jordan Lynch a chance ot play qb coming out of high school. Even the NIU staff had thoughts of moving him to safety. Good thing they didn't!
Back in August I did a post here reporting on NIU is marketing Jordan Lynch as a Heisman Trophy candidate. And using a unique piece of swag to do it. And here he is.
Of course, the biggest obstacle for Jordan Lynch winning the trophy is the lack of name brand recognition. Best exemplified by this incident at MAC Media Day.
If Jordan Lynch had played for a big traditional national power with a lot of media coverage, instead of a mid-major with low publicity, he wouldn't have this problem. The Heisman is first about "can you play?" Which Jordan Lynch obviously can. But second, it's about the glory and star power.

Actor Morgan Freeman's 33 Year Old Granddaugter E'Dena Hines Stabbed to Death in Manhattan, NY
The grand daughter of Oscar award winning actor Morgan Freeman was murdered in New York City early Sunday morning. 33 year old E'Dena Hines was stabbed to death on the Manhattan sidewalks by her ranting and crazed boyfriend. Reports state Hines was stabbed 16 times.According to accounts, Hines' 30 year old live-in boyfriend, Lamar Davenport, was in a drug-induced psychosis when he continuously stabbed her ranting, "Get out, devils! I cast you out, devils! In the name of Jesus Christ, I cast you out!" She was transported to Harlem Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
The granddaughter of acclaimed actor Morgan Freeman was stabbed to death on a Manhattan sidewalk early Sunday during what law-enforcement sources and witnesses described as an "exorcism" at the hands of her ranting boyfriend.
"Get out, devils! I cast you out, devils! In the name of Jesus Christ, I cast you out!" the killer yelled as he plunged a hunting knife into 33-year-old E'Dena Hines' chest, according to George Hudacko, who witnessed the 3 a.m. attack from his apartment window in Washington Heights.
Hines, an actress who had appeared on Broadway and on red carpets at Freeman's side, was stabbed 16 times, officials said.
"The girl was making a lot of noise, screaming," Hudacko said, adding. "I called 911 — I was begging them to come."
Davenport — an actor and rapper wannabe whose nickname is "Lyric" — abuses cocaine, pot and booze, and has two young children, according to law-enforcement sources. Hines was not their mother
He has six prior arrests, including for marijuana and petty larceny, the sources added.
Mr Freeman released a statement:
"The world will never know her artistry, and how much she had to offer".
"Her friends and family were fortunate enough to have known what she meant as a person," he said. "Her star will continue to shine bright in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. May she rest in peace."

Cornell Haynes, aka Rapper Nelly, Arrested on Felony Drug Charges in Tennessee Saturday after Hwy Patrol Found Drugs & Handguns on Tour Bus
40 year old Cornell Haynes, better known as the rapper Nelly, was arrested in Tennessee Saturday morning on felony drug charges. According to reports, Tennessee Highway patrol pulled the bus over that Nelly was traveling in around 9:20 AM in Putnam County on Saturday because a U.S. Department of Transportation International Fuel Tax Association sticker wasn't displayed on the vehicle. Upon inspection, a highway trooper smelled marijuana coming from the vehicle and the bus was searched where upon authorities found five crystalline rocks that tested positive for methamphetamine, a small amount of marijuana and three handguns. At the time of the arrests, six people in total were on the bus. Nelly's lawyer said that "there had been 15-20 people that had access to the bus prior to the stop." The rapper had on Friday performed at the North Carolina Azalea Festival in Wilmington. Nelly and Brian Jones, were detained at Putnam County Jail and released later that day after posting 10,000 bail.
Nelly – mugshot, Putnam County Sheriff's Dept
The rapper known as Nelly was arrested on felony drug charges in Tennessee on Saturday after highway patrol troopers said they found drugs and handguns in the bus he was riding in.
A Highway Patrol trooper pulled over the bus at around 9:20 a.m. in Putnam County Saturday because a U.S. Department of Transportation International Fuel Tax Association sticker wasn't displayed, the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security said in a statement.
The trooper said he smelled marijuana coming from the vehicle and the bus was searched, the department said. Troopers found five crystalline rocks that tested positive for methamphetamine, a small amount of marijuana and three handguns, the department said. The department said the drugs were found inside a plastic bag in the sleeping area of the bus.
Nelly, 40, is charged with felony possession of drugs and lesser charges of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, authorities said. Another man, Brian Jones, was arrested for allegedly having a handgun as a convicted felon, the department said.
Nelly and Jones were booked and taken to the Putnam County Jail, and both men posted $10,000 bail and were released at 5:45 p.m. local time (6:45 p.m. ET), jail officials said.
Nelly Arrested on Felony Drug Charges in Tennessee.
TDOS said in the statement that a state trooper stopped a Prevost motor coach bus the two were riding in on Interstate 40, a highway that connects Nashville and Knoxville, for "failure to display a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and International Fuel Tax Association (IFTA) sticker on the vehicle." He smelled pot emitting from the bus, the statement said. The trooper, assisted by another one, then "conducted a probable cause search" of the vehicle.
"The troopers discovered in the sleeper area a plastic bag that contained five colored crystal-type rocks that tested positive for methamphetamine, as well as a small amount of marijuana and other drug paraphernalia," police said.
"Allegedly, a small quantity of contraband (MDMA aka Molly or Ecstasy) was discovered during the routine search," Nelly's lawyer said in his statement.
Authorities also said that "further investigation revealed approximately 100 small Ziploc bags that are commonly associated with the sale of narcotics and numerous handguns, including a gold-plated 50-caliber Desert Eagle pistol, a 45-caliber Taurus pistol, and a 500 magnum Smith and Wesson."

AC/DC Drummer Phil Rudd Arrested in New Zealand for Attempting to Arrange a Murder, Threatening to Murder and Drug Possession (Update: Tauranga Crown Solicitor Withdraws Attempt to Procure Murder Charge)
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap …
60 year old Phil Rudd, the longtime drummer of AC/DC, has been arrested in New Zealand for allegedly trying to have two men killed and charged with attempting to "procure" a murder. Rudd was also charged with possession of methamphetamine and cannabis and threatening to kill. According to the charges by police, Rudd had tried to get two men killed, their names and that of the intended hitman were all suppressed by the judge. Rudd has yet to enter a plea and is due back in court again on November 27.
AC/DC – Guns For Hire
AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd was arrested in New Zealand on Thursday morning local time and charged with attempting to procure a murder, as first reported by Stuff.co.nz. A member of the Tauranga Central division of New Zealand Police confirmed Rudd's arrest to Rolling Stone, but did not provide any additional details. According to Stuff, Rudd allegedly tried to have two as-yet-unidentified men killed and was also charged with possession of methamphetamine, possession of cannabis and threatening to kill.
The longtime drummer appeared in Tauranga District Court on Thursday afternoon local time and was released on bail. He is due back for his next hearing on November 27th and faces up to 10 years in prison on the murder-for-hire charge if convicted. New Zealand police have yet to reveal any details behind Rudd's arrest or who were the intended victims. According to New Zealand news outlet The Sun, Rudd was "accused of procuring murder" between September 25th and 26th.
The drug charges pertain to a raid on the 60-year-old drummer's house conducted by police on Thursday.
AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd on New Zealand murder plot charge, Band comments:
AC/DC are due to release a new album later this year.
A statement on the band's website said: "We've only become aware of Phil's arrest as the news was breaking. We have no further comment.
"Phil's absence will not affect the release of our new album Rock or Bust and upcoming tour next year."
UPDATE I: Phil Rudd, AC/DC drummer, has most serious charge in alleged New Zealand murder-for-hire plot withdrawn.
A New Zealand crown solicitor withdrew the most serious charge against AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd on Thursday, dropping the attempting to procure murder charge in an alleged murder plot involving "working girls."
A disheveled Rudd, 60, appeared "thunderstruck" in Tauranga District Court on Wednesday, hours after his waterfront mansion was raided by police and faced several charges, including threatening to kill as well as possession of methamphetamine and cannabis.
Paul Mabey, Rudd's attorney, said in a statement that an overzealous New Zealand police investigation pushed their case without consulting Tauranga Crown Solicitor Greg Hollister-Jones, who agreed Thursday to strike the attempting to procure murder charge.
"The charge alleging an Attempt to Procure Murder should never have been laid," Mabey said. "The Crown Solicitors opinion was not sought. The charge is now withdrawn — within 24 hours of Mr. Rudd's first appearance in court."

Obama White House Going to Pot … Snoop Dogg Says He Got High in the Bathroom of the White House
And the powers that be think its okay to legalize pot …
On Snoop Dog's Internet show titled "Double G News Network," guest Jimmy Kimmel asked Snoop if he had lit up a joint at the White House. Snoop Dog says, while toking on a joint, that he smoked pot in the bathroom at the White House. UNREAL.
To here Snoop Dogg tell it, the White House has gone to pot. At least once when he was there.
While on his internet talk show "Double G News Network" with Jimmy Kimmel, Snoop told about the time he got high at the White House.
Kimmel: "Have you ever smoked at the White House?"
Snoop: "In the bathroom. Not in the White House, but in the bathroom."
We're pretty sure that qualifies as being in the White House.

Our Classrooms are designed to offer educational experiences that reflect the developmental needs of each child. We value the opportunity to foster development and encourage fun and laughter. We work hard to ensure a positive and interactive learning environment everyday. We have a team of passionate and dedicated care givers who create a warm and positive environment for each child. Children have the opportunity for rich social play and child-initiated discovery. We believe that each day we provide a positive roll in a child's life. We are excited to show you how everything in our center is designed for learning!
Amy Deleskey, Center Director
Babies grow and learn every day. Our goal is to provide a safe and nurturing "home away from home" where babies can explore and make new discoveries. We know that learning through play is extremely valuable at this age and our Early Foundations® Infant program is designed to give babies the skills that will serve as the building blocks for a lifetime of learning.
As toddlers develop friendships, self-esteem, and curiosity, our Early Foundations® Toddler program will help them explore their world in a safe and nurturing environment. Our unique curriculum is based on the philosophy that children learn best through experiences. So each day is filled with fun activities that excite and develop toddlers, giving them the comfort and confidence to speak those first few important words, as well as make their first friends.
At this age, children are making new discoveries daily. And as two-year olds begin to exert their independence, our Early Foundations® Discovery Preschool program is prepared to open their eyes to a world of learning, sharing, and exploring. Our holistic approach in the classroom engages young minds with a blend of music, art, and movement, as well as the early education fundamentals they'll need as they continue on to preschool.
As preschoolers gain more self-esteem, they may feel ready to take on the world. Our Early Foundations® Preschool program enhances that confidence by providing activities to help children become problem solvers and lifelong learners. Through independent exploration, structured activities, and hands-on learning, children will work on early literacy, math, science, and social studies concepts. A healthy dose of running, jumping, and dancing keeps them active too.
Prekindergartners are preparing for the adventure of a lifetime – school. And our Early Foundations Prekindergarten® program is designed to get them ready by teaching letters and words, math concepts, and valuable social skills. With small group instruction, independent play in an organized atmosphere, and whole-group activities, children will have all the right skills to hop, skip, and jump right into kindergarten.
Even after school's out for the day, children need to be engaged in a comfortable, yet stimulating environment. That's where our Catch the Wave® program comes in. This innovative before – and after-school program allows school-age children to balance learning and fun through a variety of experiences. From homework help to fun physical activities, our program is designed so that everyone goes home happy.
The Cooking Adventures program gives children opportunities to participate in fun, developmentally appropriate cooking experiences. They will learn about recipes, ingredients, cooking vocabulary, and the importance of a healthy diet. The curriculum includes lessons on picnics, pizza, and heart-healthy meals.
The Math Adventures enrichment program is designed to teach important mathematics concepts such as geometry, numbers, measurement, and probability. Your child will learn about length, height, and weight. He will learn about shapes and solids. He will learn how to add, subtract, multiply, and count money. Math is everywhere and giving your child every advantage now will add up to success later in life.
Ongoing research proves that early exposure to music helps children think, reason, create, and express themselves. Children will laugh and learn about rhythm, vocal melodies, and a variety of musical genres and instruments, which can lower stress and advance memory. Learning never sounded so good.
Set your child up for advanced success with literacy through phonics, the study of letters and sounds. Reader books, games, and activity cards help your child understand the basics of vowels and blending syllables, giving him confidence and command of language.
At the Framingham KinderCare, our number one priority is the care and education of children. All the teachers work together as a team to provide a safe and positive learning experience every day. Our staff strives to encourage every child's unique learning style as well as nurture their social and emotional development, while academics also play a role in a child development.
Every day at KinderCare is a new adventure filled with love and surprises!

I have learned so much from the children that I have taught. I am so excited each day to be a part of their accomplishments and discoveries of the world around them. It is a good feeling to know that I have a part in their education as they move on to Kindergarten.

Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer says her priorities are 'God, family and Yahoo, in that order'
Evan Agostini, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Motherhood and taking the helm of a very large corporate ship have delivered some surprises, but Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer told women execs recently that having good priorities has made her life both doable and happy.
Those priorities? God, family and work.
During an invite-only "Most Powerful Women" event sponsored by Fortune, Mayer said her new baby, Macallister, has been "easy" and her job has been "fun."
As Today's Ben Popken put it: "It turns out the former Google executive, known for her planning skills and extensive use of spreadsheets to make major life decisions (and determine the perfect cupcake recipe), can still be surprised when it comes to both motherhood and corporate leadership."
She told the mostly female audience that she knew leading Yahoo would be hard and the baby would be fun. She was surprised and pleased to find that the job is fun and the baby is easy.
Today aired the television exclusive, which Popken said could be her "last public interview for some time."
Before Macallister was born, Mayer was the subject of a wide discussion on whether women can "have it all," prompted by a piece by Anne-Marie Slaughter in The Atlantic. Slaughter, the first woman director of policy planning at the State Department, had found that at some point she had to choose between career advancement and what role she wanted in her family.
Mayer, 37, accepted the position of CEO at Yahoo while she was pregnant with the baby. And she received some criticism after his birth because she took very short leave when he was born.
Popken noted that when asked what she had to do to get everything done, Mayer replied, "You have to ruthlessly prioritize.
"And that's one of the reasons I haven't been talking and I will go back to not talking after tonight."
As for those priorities, she quoted the legendary Green Bay Packers coach. "And you know Vince Lombardi says, in my life there are three things: God, family and the Green Bay Packers. For me, it's God, family and Yahoo, in that order."
Not everyone believed the cheerful CEO's assertion that a new baby is easy. Wrote Bonnie Fuller of HollywoodLife.com, "Marissa — I think you're an amazing trooper, but I'm sorry, I don't believe you for one second when you say that 'the baby's been way easier than everyone made it out to be.'
"When you just say that it's been easier than you expected, most working moms simply respond 'of course it is for her — she's worth a fortune, she can afford 24 hours, 7 days a week babysitters, a cook, a housekeeper, a chauffeur, personal shoppers, assistants at the office, etc.' — you get my drift."
Working moms, Fuller said, know about being up all night with sick babies and then facing bosses who need work done. "Most working moms may love their careers and babies," she wrote, but mostly they just feel EXHAUSTED and overwhelmed."

We're only sorry that we don't have a rating lower than Poor. What a disastrous mess this product is! These powder eyeshadows come packed in a dual-ended wand with a darker shade on one side and a highlighting shade on the other. If you tip the wand upside down when you have it open (which most people will instinctively do), guess what happens? Powder shadow comes pouring out all over the place. While visiting Target, we spoke with the cosmetic area manager and she pointed out where this product had been spilled all over the floor and display. She noted that it was nearly impossible to clean up and even the NP Set display was smeared with these shadows. Now, picture this mess all over your vanity counter. If this risk is not enough to steer you away, then know that the shadows themselves are messy to apply with the sponge applicators and that they do flake and smear on application. Each of the duos has lots of shimmer accompanied by glitter flakes, most of which will end up all over your face. Avoid this product, it's a loser.
NP Set At-A-Glance
Strengths: In-store testers; one very good concealer; some good lip products; great cream blush.
Weaknesses: Overpriced for what you get; no sunscreen in the foundation products; no good eyeshadow options; Lip Plumper contains several potent irritants; healing claims about certain product ingredients are nonsense; one really messy loose-powder eyeshadow.
NP Set brings us another mass-marketed cosmetic line created by a well-known makeup artist whose celebrity following is touted as an enticement for you to buy his products. This line is the creation of Australian-born makeup artist Napoleon Perdis, a man whose views on makeup and whose alleged skills have basically made him the Kevyn Aucoin of Australia (although so far without the countless celebrity accolades Aucoin earned). We say "alleged" because we haven't yet seen evidence that Perdis's makeup artistry skills compare with those of the late, great Aucoin (who styled his work based on the teachings of famous and brilliant 1970s makeup artist Way Bandy), although Perdis is certainly well-known in his native country.
Perdis created his first namesake line, a prestige-priced group of products, in the mid-90s. That line is still distributed in Australia, but a few years back NP Set was launched for mainstream distribution. You're supposed to make the association that buying Perdis's less expensive line of products will still help you achieve the celebrity style that his prestige line does. Well, that is no more possible with NP Set than buying a designer dress will help you look like a runway model.
Target is the exclusive brick-and-mortar retailer for the NP Set line, and given the pricing it appears that Target wants to change the image of its cosmetics aisles to compete with department store counters. It will be interesting to see if consumers buy into this pricing increase because truly there is nothing about cost that necessarily reflects quality, not at the drugstore and not at the cosmetic counter, and definitely not with NP Set products. Rimmel, Sonia Kashuk, L'Oreal, Revlon, Cover Girl, and Maybelline all have brilliant options that put NP Set's selections to shame.
Along with NP Set, Target launched two other small makeup lines from other international makeup artists—Jemma Kidd from England and Pixi, which is from Swedish makeup artist Petra Strand (although her line began in London)—and from any perspective, that's three new lines too many. None offers anything worthy of your special attention, but all three are priced to make you think they must be a head above the rest (but, as you might suspect, they aren't).
Perdis peddles his line as being 98% paraben-free (which obviously means it's not 100% free, which is an odd way to state that indeed some of his products do contain parabens so don't buy those if you're concerned about these preservatives). He also highlights the organic ingredients in his products with beguiling descriptions, but his products are neither natural nor organic in the least, and they are neither superior nor specially formulated when compared with any competing products on the shelves nearby.
The best feature of the NP Set collection is the tester units in the Target stores. Considering the ups and downs of the products in this line, you definitely need to test the products before purchasing! When all is said and done, we wouldn't suggest you be too quick to open your pocketbook for Perdis—at least not before you explore similarly priced items at Target or at the drugstore, many of which have more favorable qualities than NP Set.

but I can't stop crying! I've been putting off getting a hair cut for forever. Mainly because we moved and I don't know anyone who can give me a heads up on a decent place to go. So my cousin's wedding is tomorrow and I wanted to cut my hair beforehand because my hair is getting so long and curly it's impossible to maintain and it's officially to the point where no matter what I do to it ten minutes later it does whatever it wants. So I called around to hair salons around here and apparently it's impossible to find some place to cut your hair unless you want to pay fifty dollars. Literally, every single one. One place I called I asked how much it was and she told me fifty eight dollars. So I asked her how much it was for just a cut, no wash or blow dry or styling. She said, "Well, we don't do hair cuts without the wash, blow dry, and flat iron because it won't look good."
I don't even remember the last time I paid for a wash and cut or more than twenty dollars for a hair cut. I'm a very low maintenance person and my hair, when not as long as a stretched out infant, is also very low maintenance. I don't use product unless it's a tiny bit or argan or coconut oil. It really does not take much to make my hair look good. All I need is for someone to freakin' cut it. I'd do it myself but not the day before a wedding where I have to see three hundred relatives, half of whom I've never met, and I'm already pregnant so I really don't want to give them any more reason to judge. So now I'm crying hysterically because not only did I have my heart set on getting a hair cut before the wedding but I feel pathetic because now I can't even afford one. I miss my hometown where it was rare to find a place who would charge you more than thirty dollars for a cut that included a wash and style. I feel like an idiot for crying over something so stupid but I can't stoppp.
