UPDATE: It's rented!:-)
ASK MY KIDS, they'll tell you: Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, is a great place to grow up. Especially on Verandah Place, the most coveted block in perhaps the most charming neighborhood in brownstone Brooklyn. It's a row of mid-19th century brick carriage and mews houses, with a vest-pocket park right across the street and a highly regarded public elementary school two blocks away. Never was there a better street for skateboarding or jumping rope; car traffic is minimal. The river, the harbor and Brooklyn Bridge Park are a few blocks away; so are the best Middle Eastern and Italian groceries you'll find in NYC.
And how often does a four-story, five bedroom, three bath townhouse with a great garden come up for rent on Verandah Place, especially one that's just undergone a two-month spiffing up from top to bottom? Not often, let me tell you. If I could afford it, I'd live there myself (and did, for 20 years), but right now, it's for rent, with a long lease possible.
Our 1850s townhouse is bright and ridiculously charming, full of simple details that characterize its classic architecture: original cove moldings, four-panel doors, rare black marble fireplaces (two working) and harmonious, perfectly square rooms.
Live there, work there — the garden level would lend itself beautifully to use as a studio or professional office, or as a guest suite, play or media room.
The entire house is freshly painted, with newly refinished floors. The kitchen has custom cabinets, honed granite countertop, Sub-Zero fridge and Viking stove next to a large dining room with wood-burning fireplace.
But why take my word for it? Have a look at my many photos, below. The official listing is here. Check out the professional photos on the realtor's site (especially if you want to see the park across the street), or contact me at caramia447 (at) gmail (dot) com for further details.
P.S. Scroll all the way down to read some quirky factoids I've pulled together about Six Verandah Place and its location.
Parlor floor entry. Stairs go down to studio/garden level. Library/den to left, formal parlor ahead to left, beyond classical columns.
Library, den, media room, what have you. 15'x15′. Closet to right, double entry doors.
Come on in to parlor/living room. Door straight ahead leads to wrought iron balcony down to garden.
Major gap here: The photos above show just two angles on a 15'x22′ room with a marble mantel and two six-over-six windows overlooking the garden. Now up we go to the second floor…
Room straight ahead can be used as study or small bedroom. Overlooks garden. I wrote many a magazine article there.
View from dining room into hallway. Staircase, of course, original.
Dining room. About 15'x18′. Marble fireplace burns wood. Knoll credenza stays.
Bathroom on second floor has stall shower, washer/dryer, window overlooking street.
Coming up to top floor landing…
Master bedroom has skylight, arched windows, two closets, overlooks garden, rooftops.
2nd top floor bedroom.
3rd top floor bedroom.
Top floor bathroom with deep soaking tub.
Oh, wait! There's another whole floor downstairs, on the garden level… and a full storage basement below that.
Two room studio can be used for myriad purposes. Guest suite, playroom, teen hangout, professional office. Another access to garden.
Garden-level bathroom has full tub, 1940s green tile.
Private garden with slate patio.
- The house is pre-Civil War, built in the mid-1850s.
- It has more original interior detail than any other on the block (and I've been in most of them). That includes 4 marble mantels, cove moldings on the parlor floor, and the staircase/balusters. The ornate fixture in the front entry hall was once a gas fixture and is original to the house.
- Legend has it that the house is part of a row of five, all built by one gentleman on Warren Street for his five daughters and their families. These were not carriage houses, though there are several on the block; they were always one-family houses.
- The house is backwards! (That may be true of the whole row of five.) What is now the front facade of the house was originally the rear facade. If you stand in the garden and look up, you see its full size.
- The house is backwards probably because access was from Warren or Henry Street. There must have been an opening or possibly a road that ran through what is now the back garden in the 19th century.
- The rear parlor (living room) was originally the front parlor. We opened up the hallway and inserted the columns (which are salvaged porch columns) in the late 1980s, shortly after we bought the house.
- We also raised the ceilings on the top floor in the two back bedrooms (when we bought the house, those two rooms were an attic you couldn't stand up in) and added the three arched windows.
- The kitchen dates from 2000. Cabinetry is custom maple, and the appliances (Viking, Bosch, Sub-Zero, etc.) have all been professionally refurbished.
- Cobble Hill Park became a park in the 1950s. Prior to that there was a church there, and Verandah Place was gated. The church was torn down, and a supermarket was set to go up in its place. The community objected, and the park was created. The sandbox is centered on a unique concrete dolphin that has been there since the '50s and was preserved in a 1989 park renovation.

THE BRITISH UPPER CLASSES and Russian aristocracy, in search of sun, made the city of Nice, on France's Mediterranean coast, their winter playground in the late 19th century. Most of the city's pale or pastel-colored buildings date from that Belle Époque and from the Art Deco era, and there are few contemporary ones, giving its boulevards and squares a historic grandeur that distinguishes Nice from other beach resorts.
I came to Nice primarily to revisit a city I had fond memories of from thirty years ago. That's proving a tough act to follow. Nice has 300 days a year of sunshine, so they say, but the past couple have not been among them. I arrived in a downpour late Sunday, by train from Arles, and checked into the two-star B&B-type lodging I'd booked months ago, based on rave reviews on Trip Advisor. Don't believe them, and don't go by the pictures, which make it look more charming than it is. The Nice Garden Hotel is dreary, depressing and threadbare. After an uncomfortable night, I spent Monday morning looking for an alternative.
That took me in and out of several faded grand dames, above, along the Promenade des Anglais, which had rooms available but which were either too expensive (Negresco, Westminster) or too embalmed-feeling (Le Royal, which was great from the outside, stuffy within), or both. I ended up at the New York Times-recommended four-star Villa Victoria, below, on Boulevard Victor Hugo, and made the switch.
Ensconced now in much greater luxury (still for a reasonable 90 euros — only 15 more per night than the other — including breakfast and every possibly amenity, even female-sized terry cloth slippers and a pencil with a red rhinestone on it), I took in my first Nice museum, the Villa Massena, below, an over-the-top gilded private palace built in 1898, which the city has recently restored.
The second floor galleries, with costumes and paintings of the city in its Belle Époque heyday (below, an amusement pier that extended into sea but no longer exists) interested me more than the sumptuous decor.
Monday is the antiques market in Nice's Vieux Ville (Old City), below. It's a serious market, akin to Paris', but I'm so over all that. There isn't a poster or a piece of costume jewelry or a Quimper plate that I could rouse myself to buy these days. But it was fun to look at objects, people and, of course, buildings.
Matisse lived in the yellow house, above.
For lunch, of all the many cafes lining both sides of Vieux Ville's main drag, Cours Saleya, I chose Le Safari, below. It was bustling, warm (outdoor heaters), and smelled pleasantly of mussels and the other seafood for which Nice is known.
While my first salad Niçoise in Nice, above, was 'meh' (unripe tomatoes), the people at the next table more than made up for it. An amusing British couple who come to Nice often and know its environs intimately, from the best patisserie to which buses to take to get to which gardens, I thoroughly enjoyed my first extended conversation in days. It continued when they invited me for drinks at the apartment they're renting in a classic Niçoise building not far from my hotel. Drinks turned into a dinner spread, below (smoked salmon, quail eggs, exquisite cheeses) and I now have personal travel consultants for the rest of my stay.
All of Nice's twenty famous museums, including the Matisse and Chagall Museums in the Cimiez neighborhood, are closed on Tuesday, and the weather, though drier, is still gray. I'm heading to Ephrussi de Rothschild's quirky garden in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, a half-hour bus ride away.
EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE LOVED The Outsider last Sunday (41 comments!) It's one a member of the Brownstoner community sent in — simple, family-friendly, and on a shoestring budget. To take a look at the befores and afters, go here.
THIS PRACTICALLY ZERO-BUDGET vegetable garden was created in a neglected Brooklyn lot this spring by resourceful architect Andrea Solk and friends.
Everything was salvaged and improvised; most veggies were started from seed.

This was absolutely delicious and so easy to cook! I don't normally like wine based sauces but this one was so yummy. The almonds are key and so are the raisins. I also added dried cherries and they blended very nicely! Definitely one I'll be cooking again!
Chicken with Honey-Orange Sauce
From EatingWell: March/April 2009
Here we combine raisins, cinnamon, honey and almonds with orange juice, zest, wine and broth to make a rich, savory pan sauce for chicken. There's plenty of the gorgeous sauce, so be sure to serve whole-wheat egg noodles, couscous or rice on the side.
12 Reviews for Chicken with Honey-Orange Sauce
I thought this tasted really, really good, but it took me like an hour to make. It may have taken longer for me because I am not super savvy in the kitchen, but still, it took longer than it was listed (35 minutes).
I made this tonight, and it is one of the BEST chicken recipe finds!
I used salt substiture, and boneless chicken thighs. This will be on my list of regulars! Hubby and I love the orange, honey sauce and the chicken was so tender. Cooking times listed in the recipe were right on target. We served it with fresh string beans and baked sweet potato.
Used Steph's version and added a little soy sause, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes, also cheated and added about two table spoons clear/fied butter and a drizzle of EVOO, man take about good...PS. You might also swap the white for one cup of red, I used a cheap sarrah
Big Dave, Steinhatchee, fl
Delicious! The toasted almonds really made the dish.

If you've ever been to Germany, you may have noticed housewives scrubbing away at their front steps or paving-stone walkways. It almost seems to be an obsession for them. Why do they work so hard to clean the outside of their homes? It's because they care about what people think of the appearance of their dwellings. They take great pride in this slice of their identity that is presented to the world. Shouldn't we also care about the outside of our homes? I'm not saying that you need to scrub your front steps weekly, but you probably should clean your front door a couple times a year. If you're not sure how to clean your exterior doors properly, you'll find some helpful tips to follow.
Now that your door is sparkling clean, you'll doubtless be eager to get that front stoop clean to match. But, unless you live in Europe, you probably won't need to scrub it on your hands and knees.

Don't worry, I understand You. When I read the chapter I felt angry because Sakura worked too hard for be as strong as Her teamates just for ending as a housewife. She was transforming in a strong character that it disapointed me her development in this new manga.
| EAnIL chapter 8 . 4/28/2015
Thank you for sharing this story. And I for one feel your pain. The ending of Naruto feels like a sell out. But if it have been NaruSaku endgame it could have been reedeem... All those chracter growth that been noticesable all of it wasted. And with the new spin-off with Sarada with mother confusion just twist the knife further... Still I'm one of the lucky ones that stop watching the anime after the first fight in Valley of Death and never touch the manga but still know what's going. It leasen the blow... Such a shame really.

WICHITA, Kan. - (KAKE) Wichita police wound up handling two serious motorcycle crashes in about seven hours Sunday. The second one left two people dead.
The crash happened shortly before midnight on Seneca at Kellogg.
Police say they were called to check a burglary on Elizabeth Street, several blocks southwest of the crash site. A sheriff's deputy tracking a reported getaway bike came upon a motorcycle, which had collided with a car.
"There was a male and female on the motorcycle," Police Sgt. Ben Jonker told reporters. "Both were transported to the hospital in extremely critical condition, and both have since passed away."
Killed were Matthew Tanges and Angela Watson. Both were 26 years old. Police said the motorcycle was stolen.
South Seneca and a westbound ramp exiting Kellogg were closed for more than six hours, while police searched for evidence.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- If you're going to go about the business of exorcising playoff demons, what better way to start than by getting a monster goal from the ghost himself?
Just when the Washington Capitals seemed determined to work from last season's playoff script, Alexander Semin rescued them by ripping a Jason Arnott pass past New York Rangers netminder Henrik Lundqvist at 18:24 of the first overtime to give the Caps a 2-1 victory in the opening game of their Eastern Conference quarterfinals series.
Wildly gifted, maddeningly streaky, occasionally invisible, Semin had not scored a playoff goal since Game 7 of the Capitals' quarterfinals series against the Rangers in 2009. He did not score a goal in seven games against Pittsburgh in the next round that year. He did not score a goal in last spring's seven-game crash and burn against the eighth-seeded Montreal Canadiens.
On Wednesday night, though, he scored perhaps the biggest goal of his career, a goal that reinforced the Caps' pre-series mantra that they are a different team and this spring will be different.
Capitals coach Bruce Boudreau said he thought Semin showed he was into it from the start of Game 1. By the end of the night, he had scored the game winner and added an assist on the tying goal by Alex Ovechkin.
"I know he hadn't scored in the playoffs in a while," Boudreau said. "To come in and get a goal and an assist in a 2-1 game, that is a [sign] of how bad you want it. I thought it was fitting that he scored the overtime goal."
Washington veteran forward Mike Knuble put it more succinctly: "We're not going anywhere if he's not scoring. He's a humongous offensive threat."
What impressed Knuble more than the victory itself was how it was achieved.
Trailing late in the third period, the Capitals tied it on a goal that required a video review with Ovechkin and Semin crashing the net with five Rangers skaters and Lundqvist all within a few feet of the Capitals players.
"Those are our skilled guys in there, mucking in front of the net and jamming one in. Probably the last guys you'd think would be doing that," Knuble said. "It was great to see. The ones where they have to call upstairs and find out what actually happened are the best goals, I think."
The first game of a playoff series is like driving by a half-built house. You think you have an idea of what it might look like or how it will turn out, but it's really just guesswork. You never know when what you think is the living room will turn out to be a toilet.
What is indisputable is the demolition job the Capitals did over the last three games against Montreal last April. After leading the first-round series 3-1, they managed to score just three times in losing three straight to the plucky Canadiens. Leading up to Wednesday's opener against the Rangers, the story was about how this Capitals team had learned a lesson from a year ago, how they were built to prevail in those low-scoring games that had been their demise in the past.
But for much of Game 1 on Wednesday night, there were ominous signs that this was more deja vu than building a new foundation.
Semin and Arnott both hit crossbars within a minute of each other.
Lundqvist was sensational in turning aside 24 of 25 shots, at one point saving a sure goal on a Nicklas Backstrom breakaway with a deft flick of his right pad as the puck trickled through his legs.
The Capitals' power play, so flaccid in last year's series against Montreal, was shut out on two attempts in Game 1.
When Rangers defenseman Matt Gilroy broke a scoreless draw less than two minutes into the third period after some nice forechecking work by Brandon Prust, the gauntlet was thrown down for the hometown Capitals. Was this talk of a new mindset just that, or was it something more?
"This is the game we've been preparing for. We've done it a lot throughout the course of the year, and I think it's given us some experience. It paid off tonight," said defenseman Mike Green, who was in the lineup for the first time since being sidelined with a concussion Feb. 25. "We expect to be in these games throughout the rest of the series and as we move on."
Not that the Caps were completely unflappable.
"We were a little flappable," Boudreau said. "We weren't getting anywhere, and it wasn't until the last 10 minutes where we said on the bench, 'OK, let's start sending the defensemen and taking more chances and going after them.'"
This was a terrific hockey game -- hard-hitting on both sides of the puck, terrific goaltending from Lundqvist and rookie Michal Neuvirth, who was playing in his first Stanley Cup playoff game. But there are no moral victories in the playoffs, and so the Rangers will be the ones who must dust themselves off and scramble to get even in Friday's Game 2.
"We played the game we wanted to for the most part," Rangers forward Brian Boyle said.
But even Lundqvist noted the subtle changes from the last time the two teams met in the postseason.
"This is probably what [the series] is going to look like. They are a different team; they play a little bit tighter now," Lundqvist said. "I think the key for us is to be patient and wait for our chances."
On Friday, the structure of what this series will become will continue to come into focus. So far, though, it is a building that shows no signs of being haunted, at least as far as the Capitals are concerned.

Can Obama Pull a Reagan?
Democrats inside and outside the White House are looking for a comeback strategy for President Obama, and their model is Ronald Reagan.
Democrats inside and outside the White House are looking for a comeback strategy for President Obama, and their model is Ronald Reagan.
The Gipper's approval ratings were in the tank at the end of his second year in office, but he roared back to win 49 states against Democrat Walter Mondale. And Reagan's polling numbers at this stage of his presidency were not much better than Mr. Obama's are now.
However, a new analysis from Laffer and Associates suggests that it will be very difficult for Team Obama to replicate Reagan. Reagan's numbers bottomed out in January 1983, right after the trough of the 1982 recession, at about 35%. But for the rest of 1983, Reagan's numbers steadily climbed and eventually surpassed 50% by the end of that year. For Mr. Obama, the trend line this year has been in the opposite direction.
"Reagan's numbers really began to soar by late '83," says Arthur Laffer, who was an economic adviser to Reagan. "The numbers really tracked the economic recovery."
That kind of political resurrection could happen for Mr. Obama if the economy heals. But right now unemployment exceeds 9%, and presidents typically don't get re-elected when unemployment is more than 8%. And then there are the "confidence" and "competence" factors, according to the Laffer report. These are measures of whether people feel that things are getting better and the president is doing the right thing, even if the economy isn't so good at that point in time. In 1984, the unemployment rate was still above 7.5 % and Reagan won big.
The Laffer report on the two presidents is aptly entitled "The Odd Couple." In this case Reagan would be Felix, because he cleaned up the mess; and Mr. Obama is more like Oscar, who leaves a bigger mess behind.

Dr. Nancy Snyderman once again tried apologizing for breaking her Ebola quarantine ... but again, there were asterisks and excuses.
Snyderman sat down Wednesday morning with Matt Lauer and in her own way tried apologizing for breaking her Ebola quarantine.
She said she was sorry, but then made excuses ... she and her crew had taken their temps for days and they were fine ... somehow justifying her decision to break the quarantine for a restaurant run.
She said she was sorry for "adding to the confusion" about Ebola ... though we're pretty sure Nancy is the only person confused about the meaning of the word "quarantine."
This is probably as good as it's gonna get.
Matt Lauer Janay Rice Interview 'Was Fantastic'
EXCLUSIVEMatt Lauer says his sitdown with Ray Rice's wife was "great" -- but it's clear he doesn't want to give too much away ... because he just bobbed and weaved like Muhammad Ali!
Matt was heading over to 30 Rock in NYC this morning when he acknowledged the interview was in the can.
But watch the deflection technique ... Matt knows the golden rule when it comes to promoting a big interview -- no one's gonna buy the cow if he gives away the milk for free.
Ray Rice's Wife Lights. Camera. Lauer.
EXCLUSIVERay Rice's wife Janay is ready for her close-up ... meeting up with beauty specialists before her big "Today" show interview with Matt Lauer.
With cameras setup in her Maryland home, Janay Palmer -- the woman Ray KO'd in the elevator back in February -- invited over a local company that specializes in photo shoots to gussy her up.
The company is called Franchon Parlour -- and it does everything from wardrobe selection to hair extensions.
It's clear that Janay and Ray want it to look like the interview is all about Janay -- but our NBC sources tell us Ray is the main reason they want this interview. And, our sources say Ray WILL be participating in some way even though his people say he is not yet committed.
We're told Ray was at the home when Janay went on camera.
Matt Lauer I'm Not Saying There's a Ray Rice Interview, But ...
EXCLUSIVEMatt Lauer had every opportunity to say he does not have an interview lined up with disgraced NFL star Ray Rice, but he didn't.
As TMZ Sports first reported ... NBC sources told us Lauer snagged an interview with Rice and wife Janay. Our Rice sources say nothing is set in stone for him ... that "Today" is more interested in Janay, but our NBC sources say that's not true -- Rice is the prize.
So when our photog spotted Lauer in NYC Wednesday morning and mentioned the Ray interview, Lauer said repeatedly no "announcement" had been made. Interesting.
BTW ... how cool is Matt?
Ray Rice Breaking Silence to Matt Lauer On 'Today' Show Sit-Down
Matt Lauer has won the war for Ray Rice -- booking the disgraced NFL star to appear on the "Today" show for an exclusive sit-down interview during sweeps ... TMZ Sports has learned.
It's unclear if Ray's wife Janay Rice will participate in the interview.
We're told the interview is expected to air sometime between now and Nov. 26th.
It's a huge score for NBC ... especially since Rice and Janay have been radio silent with the media ever since we published the elevator footage showing Ray KOing Janay in an Atlantic City casino.
A source connected with Rice just contacted us and said Rice has made no commitment to sit-down with "Today" and will not do anything until after the arbitration decision on his suspension is made. The source says "Today" was really only interested in Janay, not Ray. Our NBC sources dispute that and say Rice is the prize. The Rice source says they will consider the interview but only after arbitration.
Matt Lauer Hunt Is On For 1st Ray Rice Interview
Matt Lauer knows ... the first morning show to interview Ray Rice WINS -- and that's why the "Today" show ... and everyone else in morning TV is officially in on the chase to lock down the NFL star.
Matt played coy when we asked if he had already reached out to Rice -- but the answer was written all over his face.
He also explained, "Ray Rice has a story to tell that he wants to get out there." It's clear, Lauer wants to be the one to help him tell that story.
"I think anybody who does what I do for a living would wanna sit down with either of them [Ray and Roger Goodell] and Janay as well."
Ray has texted back and forth with some ESPN reporters over the past few days -- but it's unclear if he's committed to an on-camera interview ... yet.
Stay tuned.
Matt Lauer Flood Watch for Savannah's Uterus
Dave Chappelle 'Crashes' 'Today' Show
Breaking NewsDave Chappelle was banging on the window at the "Today" show this morning -- but the stunt was just as transparent as the glass.
Matt Lauer feigned surprise when he just happened to notice the comedian hyping his show from outside.
Lauer took a break so he could walk outside and interview Chappelle about his upcoming shows at Radio City Music Hall ... and it was just plain weird. Lauer happened to know the first 5 shows sold out immediately, so Dave is there trying to sell tickets to 4 additional shows.
The way to sell ... be funny. And it really wasn't.
Maybe Dave isn't a morning guy.
Matt Lauer Here 'Today' Here Tomorrow
Breaking News
Matt Lauer places silver in the morning show ratings, but he's gold at NBC ... because the network has just re-signed him for multiple years.
Lauer has been through a rough few years, playing the role of scapegoat for NBC's botched firing of Ann Curry. And the show slipped from ratings dominance.
But the criticism has subsided and the show's rating have gone up some ... so NBC just re-signed Lauer with just a few months to go before his contract expired.
Lauer was earning around $30 million in his last contract, and it's a safe bet he got a raise.
This could be an interesting summer for the show. Savannah Guthrie is on maternity leave, and the plan was for Katie Couric to temporarily re-team with Matt.
Another good lesson ... you can never take a snapshot of someone in troubled times and assume things won't get better.
Katie Couric NBC Mulling over Return to 'Today'
Execs at "Today" are talking about filling a pregnant pause -- with Katie Couric ... TMZ has confirmed.
Co-host Savannah Guthrie is 5 months pregnant and headed for maternity leave ... we're told NBC honchos are seriously considering bringing Katie back while Savannah is on maternity leave.
The reasons -- Katie is still hugely identified with the "Today" brand, she gets along great with Matt Lauer and she's friends with Savannah.
The NY Post reported and we've confirmed ... it's just in the talking stages, but we're hearing it's being seriously considered.
As for Katie, sources say her exclusive deal with ABC is up mid-summer, so the timing would work out.
One final thing ... the execs are saying Katie makes sense because she's not a "threat" to Savannah. Hmmmm.
Joan Rivers The 2 Chicks Held Hostage in Ohio Should Lighten Up
Joan Rivers is scoffing at the 2 women who were held hostage in a Cleveland, Ohio basement ... telling TMZ they shouldn't complain -- "They got to live rent free for more than a decade."
The women are pissed at Joan's comments on the "Today" show this week ... when she talked about her daughter's guest room, saying "Those women in the basement in Cleveland had more space."
The women -- Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus -- came out swinging, saying they were shocked and disappointed at the "hurtful" comment.
Joan tells us she WON'T apologize, telling them to lighten up, adding, "One of them has a book deal. Neither are in a psych ward. They're ok. I bet you within 3 years one of them will be on Dancing with the Stars."
And Joan says, plenty of comedians have done schtick about tragic events like Hitler's terror and the sinking of the Titanic. Joan says, "The TV the guy gave them must not have had SNL."
Josh Elliott I Wanted Out of "GMA" So Bad I Took a Pay Cut!
Josh Elliott was so disgusted with ABC ... he took a pay cut of more than a million dollars ... multiple sources connected with both ABC and NBC tell TMZ.
Our sources say ABC offered Josh between $4 and $5 million to stay, but he chose NBC despite the fact that they offered him just over $3 million.
We're told Josh was at the point of no return when Robin Roberts signed a $14 million a year contract to anchor GMA. He felt slighted by the ABC offer and just wanted out.
Sources say the feeling is mutual. As one source put it, "He's definitely an abrasive guy." Another source says, "People hated him. He was always just rude."
And get this ... we're told just weeks ago Sr. VP of ABC News James Goldston confronted Amy Robach -- Josh's replacement on GMA -- and called her "toxic" because she created tension on the set. Indeed, we're told Amy and Lara Spencer "hate" each other and can't hide their contempt.
Another source says Robin Roberts hasn't helped matters -- one person saying she acts like a "diva" on the set.
As for Josh's future ... our network sources say NBC did NOT promise Josh any role on "Today," but we're told there's no doubt he's got to the top of the heap as the likely successor to Matt Lauer.
Morning TV ... it's just like grade school, only all the students are really rich.
'Today' Show Stunt Al Roker Faux Filthy Rant on Billy Bush
EXCLUSIVEThe "Today" show has an interesting new strategy for regaining its king-of-the-morning title ... do a phony, f***-laced meltdown with Al Roker ... but the show needs some pointers ... which TMZ will gladly offer.
We just got this video of Al going off on Billy Bush, who was interviewing Johnny Weir during the Sochi Olympics. The clip has a whispery set-up, where Al seems to be schooling Billy who just doesn't know his place on the broadcasting food chain.
And then Al rants ... and it's dirty. And NBC clearly wanted us and everyone else to run it ... which we will gladly do.
Advice to NBC: Lose the crew from the shot. The camera guy can barely focus he's laughing so hard. Also, use a lavalier mic (clip-on), rather than a boom. The boom is in Al's face so there's no way anyone would believe it's authentic. And, get Al an acting lesson or 2. The overacting is felonious.
Nonetheless .... it's an interesting new strategy. We'll see if foul-mouth stunts actually work.

Deeplinks Blog posts about DMCA
When state officials seek to censor online speech, they're going to use the quickest and easiest method available. For many, copyright takedown notices do the trick. After years of lobbying and increasing pressure from content industries on policymakers and tech companies, sending copyright notices to take media offline is easier than ever.
When you buy a book, a record, or a movie, you can expect to be able to enjoy it, on your own terms, for as long as you want. But the same cannot always be said about video games. Over the past several years, video game publishers have increasingly required connection with one of their own servers in order to "unlock" core functionality for gameplay. Publishers often take those servers offline once they stop being economical to run, leaving a typical gamer unable to play her lawfully purchased games. And this affects not just video game players, but archivists and researchers who want to preserve and study the history of games as cultural artifacts.
If you own a phone or a tablet, you should be able to run whatever software you want on it. It seems like a simple truth, but there are a surprising number of hurdles in the way. Most pressingly, if the manufacturer of that phone or tablet wants to, they can misuse the law to limit your control over the device long after your purchase. This week, EFF has filed a petition with the Librarian of Congress and the Copyright Office to extend and expand the exemption that allows you to "jailbreak" your phone from those restrictions, without running afoul of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).
We at EFF think remix art is an important part of modern culture, one that helps ordinary people critique mass media and create new art that builds on media they love. This week we teamed up with the Organization for Transformative Works to help make sure remix continues to thrive.
The reach of copyright law has expanded so far that it now threatens people's ability to repair their own cars and protect them against malware. Yesterday, EFF launched a legal campaign to fend off that threat.

Michael Schuman
A replica of Anne Frank's roll-top desk is here, supporting a plaid diary. Also here are twin beds, one covered with a pair of haphazardly tossed magazines; Anne loved reading about all topics, including her day's pop culture. Magazine cutout photos of movie stars and royalty — representing those she had displayed of Greta Garbo, Sonja Henie and Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret of England — are posted on the bedroom walls. Some feet away, a trick bookcase protects the hideaway from the outside world. Turn it sideways and it opens into an entrance, just like the one in Frank's preserved hideout in Amsterdam.
But this isn't Holland. This is "Anne Frank in the World: 1929-1945." Formally called an exhibit, it's sort of a small museum in the Atlanta suburb of Sandy Springs, Ga. Anne's bedroom is a reproduction of the original on Prinsengracht in the Dutch city. The bookcase here is built similarly to the one in Anne's Amsterdam annex. Between the trick door and Anne's reproduced room are rows and rows of more than 800 photographs, reproduced historic newspaper front pages and a scale model of the annex where the Jewish family hid from the Nazis during World War II.
The story of Anne Frank is very familiar to those of a certain age. But to young people, to whom the Vietnam War is ancient history, the true story of Anne Frank is often lost in a hazy cloud of events and names associated with the war of their great-grandparents, World War II: D-Day, Pearl Harbor, Germany, the atomic bomb, Hiroshima, the Holocaust, the Battle of the Bulge, Anne Frank, the Nanking Massacre, Yalta, the Third Reich.
In an introductory 28-minute film, "The Short Life of Anne Frank," narrator and Academy Award-winning actor Jeremy Irons explains that as a Jewish family living in Germany, the Franks saw the proverbial writing on the wall after Hitler came to power in 1933. They packed their belongings, said goodbye to friends and co-workers and moved to safety in Amsterdam. An oddity in the film is the only moving footage of Anne Frank known to exist. It lasts roughly eight seconds and shows Anne looking out a window at a wedding party on the sidewalk below.
Irons informs us that Anne planned to be a writer after the war was over, and she wrote her diary in hopes it would be published. In an O. Henry-style twist, it was published after her death, becoming one of the best-selling books of all time.
Exhibits explain that the Franks had been model German citizens. Displayed is a photograph of Anne's father Otto and his brother Herbert decked out in World War I uniforms, loyal German soldiers fighting for their country. And from 1933 until 1942, the Franks lived a normal life in Amsterdam. But in 1940 Germany overran Holland and on July 5, 1942, Anne's sister, Margot, received a report-to-work notice from the Nazi government. The next day, the Franks went into hiding.
Unlike other Holocaust-related museums, this exhibit tells the Holocaust story but with an emphasis on Anne. The reason, said exhibit coordinator Sandra Craine, is to put a human face on the Holocaust, examining it through the lens of one person's point of view.
Because photography was one of Otto Frank's hobbies, more family photos exist than one might think, and several depict the Franks at leisure, living a life no different than other Amsterdam residents did in the 1930s. Visitors see the Frank family relaxing at the beach; Anne sitting in the sun, reading; the Franks gathered at the family kitchen table; proud father Otto holding Anne and Margot.
Then there is an ominous photo: Jewish forced laborers building a fallout shelter in 1940. It signals the beginning of the time when life would never again be normal for the Franks and millions of other European Jews.
In a vintage photograph a small boy is dressed in a Nazi uniform. At an age where he should be playing soccer with his friends, he is obediently saluting Hitler, representing Hitler's power to exploit children. Craine offers the old but respected adage that one has to be taught to hate.

If you are going to attempt grammar smack, which is the weakest of all smack, shouldn't you at least make sure all of your grammar is correct?
Also you utah "fans" are killing me with this "our articles" stuff. Just being a utah "fan" doesn't make articles "yours". They are for everyone. I learned that from chris b and naval vet.

This will be one of if not the toughest schedule the Utes have had in the
programs history.
They should be able to win all of their non conference games so hopefully the amount of home games will help get them bowl eligible. I would be nice for the program to start another bowl game winning streak again this year. The extra practices that the NCAA allows makes it so important to qualify.
It's kind of funny the regular coug fans are on here once again pounding their chest. What they must not understand is that it only makes a sound of irrelevance. Your program wasn't even able to get their signature 10 wins against the low level WAC teams they play. It's sad that you can't recognize how in trouble your own program is.
As for the Utes, the future looks pretty bright, each year we receive more and more of our share of the PAC12 money and they keep investing that money into all the programs which will pay off with better recruits and more wins down the road.
Go Utes!

You do realize it is utah that keeps winning less and less games each year don't you? It is utah that didn't even qualify for a bowl.

Irrelevance is defined as rushing the field three times against the team U define as "irrelevant".
You're only fooling yourself if you think that more money is ever going to allow U to keep pace with the big boys of the PAC 12.
No, you're destined to be a perennial conference bottom dweller, fighting Colorado and WSU to stay out of the conference basement.

@ducky & sportsfan
Keep telling yourself whatever you need to in order to make yourselves feel better. Your mighty cougs barely made a bowl game this year even with the cupcakes they played in November.
It's crazy to not believe that a putting millions of dollars into the facilities won't make a difference in recruiting. The fact is that is what draws good athletic 17 and 18 year olds to your program in the first place. The Utes have only had two years of recruiting within the PAC12 obviously it has made them good enough to beat mediocre programs consistently such as your mighty cougs, but they still need to get better to compete with the higher level of competition found in a power conference. Any realistic Utah fan knew this would take time.
It's great to be a Ute!

LOL at the frantic and emotion chest pounding by another BYU-obsessed Ute.
Keep telling yourself that being a bottom dweller in any conference makes you special. The millions Utah is investing in new facilities won't even come to close to matching what other PAC 12 schools have already invested and will continue to invest.
Any realistic Ute should have realized by now that Utah was destined to be the next Arizona in the PAC 12; THIRTY years in the conference and still looking for its first Rose Bowl.
It's nice that you're proud of being a Ute, but that's not going to help U climb out of the PAC 12 basement.

|Why Not Anybody-But-Bush?
|<Back | Next>
I was surfing around the blogosphere one day when I found an interesting challenge from one Bush supporter:
Like the Swift Boat Veterans for Revenge, here's another attempt from the Right to run away from Bush's record. Why is the repudiation of a president's failed policies not enough of a reason to vote for his opponent? I'm not falling for the bait. Agreeing to those rules is ridiculous.
If we had a parliamentarian system or viable third parties, then there might be some merit to this line of reasoning. We might have more than two choices, so we'd need to focus on which one was better, not which one isn't worse. But in America, you get Republican choice vs. Democratic choice. Some call it "the lesser of two evils". So be it. I'll pick John "the lesser" Kerry.
If Adolf Hitler was running against Richard Nixon, would it be unreasonable to point out the Holocaust, the police-state, the empire-building, the war, and implore people to vote for the guy who is not Hitler? Or would I have to come up with the positive reasons I'd be voting for Nixon? (Note: before you flame me, I'm not equating Bush to Hitler. Hitler was legally elected and won the popular vote. Bush is no Hitler. But Bush does give me new appreciation for Nixon -- I can name a few good things Nixon did.)
I don't look at elections as a choice about which candidate I think will do a better job, except when both the candidates are not incumbents. When the race includes an incumbent, the election is a referendum on the policies and performance of the incumbent. This incumbent president is a miserable failure on the issues of diplomacy, war planning, intelligence gathering, job creation, economic revival, public health, social issues, and much more.
Maybe I should just flip this logic back at the Bush supporters: Explain why Bush should be preferred in terms of how much worse Kerry would be. How would Kerry lose more than one million jobs? How would Kerry take us into deeper levels of federal deficit than Bush? How would Kerry lead our nation into war against some other brutal dictator who was not behind 9/11? How would Kerry go farther in justifying regime change by misrepresenting flawed intelligence on WMD's? How would Kerry make an even better sweetheart deal to pharmaceutical companies with respect to Medicare coverage of prescription drugs? How many more covert CIA operatives and al Qaeda double-agents would Kerry expose?
What is it that John Kerry's going to do that will be so much worse than Bush?

American Airlines Says Storms Cut First-Quarter Revenue
American Airlines, the world's largest carrier, said winter storms that grounded flights reduced first-quarter revenue by about $115 million and operating profit by about $60 million.
Operating margin for the three months that ended March 31 will be 5 percent to 7 percent, below the airline's January forecast of 6 percent to 8 percent, the Fort Worth, Texas-based carrier said in a statement today.
Harsh snow, ice and frigid weather that battered large swaths of the country, especially American's hubs in Charlotte, North Carolina, Chicago, Dallas and New York, forced the airline to cancel more than 34,000 flights, it said. The four biggest U.S. airlines in total were forced to cancel more than 74,000 flights in the first two months of this year.
Passenger unit revenue, or revenue from each seat flown a mile, will rise 2.5 percent to 3.5 percent, within a forecast of 2 percent to 4 percent provided by American on March 10.

Lufthansa Finance Chief Quits After 22 Years for Haniel
Deutsche Lufthansa AG Chief Financial Officer Stephan Gemkow will leave the airline to take over as chief executive officer of Franz Haniel & Cie GmbH, ending a 22-year career at Europe's second-biggest airline.
Gemkow's appointment at Haniel must still be approved by the company's supervisory board, Haniel spokesman Dietmar Bochert said by telephone. Lufthansa's supervisory board will meet May 7 to discuss Gemkow's departure and consider potential replacements, the Cologne, Germany-based carrier said in a separate statement today.
Since becoming CFO in June 2006, Gemkow administered a cost-saving program between 2008 and 2011 that eliminated 1 billion euros ($1.3 billion) in expenses. Another 1.5 billion-euro profit improvement plan was announced in February.
"It's clearly a loss, he's a very good manager," said Juergen Pieper, a Frankfurt-based Bankhaus Metzler analyst. "Conversely, the big theme at the moment is the restructuring program, and we all know that it's the chief executive officer who's in the driving seat there."
After spells as area sales chief in the U.S., head of investor relations and senior vice president of corporate finance, the 52 year old served as finance head at the cargo unit for two years before assuming his current role.
Making Decisions
Current Haniel CEO Juergen Kluge said in November that he will not extend his contract at the company when it expires in December. It is as yet undecided when Gemkow will leave Lufthansa, Claudia Lange, a Frankfurt-based spokeswoman for the carrier, said by telephone.
"He might not always have made the right decisions, but many of them were good," said Frankfurt-based Equinet analyst Jochen Rothenbacher, who has a "hold" rating on Lufthansa shares. "When the CFO leaves a DAX company because he has found something better, it clearly demonstrates that something is not going quite right with the development of the business."
Haniel is a holding company whose investments include 50.01 percent of Metro AG, Germany's biggest retailer, and 54.6 percent of Celesio AG, Europe's largest drug wholesaler, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Pokémon Auburn started off as a little FRLG styled game I started right after I finished school, around late June, to kill time. Since then the game has gone through major changes. I managed to get a few amazing team members to help me out in changing the game to a Gen IV style and the game had lots of progress being made at that point.
Pokémon Auburn lets you take control of a young trainer in the Lamore Region, a beautiful and lush region filled with many different Pokémon. As your father is one of the strongest trainers in Lamore, you try and follow in their footsteps by receiving a starter Pokémon from Professor Holly, the regional professor who is located in Persimmon Town. After receiving your starter, you meet up with Professor Holly's son Cedric and engage in a friendly battle with him, this will be the first of many great bouts you fight as a Pokémon trainer. Your next destination lies in Sinopia City, which is slightly larger than Persimmon Town, and a great place for healing your starters battle wounds and buying some nice merchandise at the PokéMart.
Your journey continues on to Bellow Town, where your task is to fight your first Gym Battle against the town's Poison-Type expert Lason, however your quest is momentarily interrupted. Some grunts claiming to be from Team Direct are trying to force a kid to give up his Pokémon, and despite your inexperience, you're the only one up to stopping them. Luckily enough, you're able to fend them off, but those grunts were just a taste of Team Direct's power. The organization's influence has been growing steadily as they cause more mischief throughout the region. Team Direct's grunts may be weak, but the organization's true power lies at the top.
Team Direct's leader, a mysterious man by the name of Nonu seeks to become the most powerful man in the world and rule with Team Direct by his side. After years of toiling in search of it, Nonu has supposedly found the Omega Unown, a forme of Pokémon exclusive to the Lamore region, and one that's powers are far beyond that of all the other Unown. Not much is known about this Pokémon, or if Nonu has it like he is rumored to, but it's supposedly able to bend anyone's will and can act as a means for mass mind control, truly a threat if it ends up in the wrong hands. Nonetheless, it's up to you as the protagonist to win battles, fight evil and write your own story as a Pokemon master.
- Complete certain achievements throughout the game to earn PokéPoints.
- A different type of currency. Earn PokéPoints from trainer battles, completing quests, and completing achievements.
PokéPoint Shop
- Buy things such as EXP Gems, Rare Candybars, Pokémon Eggs that will hatch into any random Pokémon, and much more!
- There will be plenty of quests in Auburn for you to complete and earn rewards from.
Move Combos
(May not be in the game) - Combine two of your Pokémon's moves to make a new one. (example: Ember + Rapid Spin = Fire Spin, Thunderbolt + Quick Attack = Volt Tackle)
Explore Lamore
- Travel around a brand new region!
And much more!
