- frostapillar "Another Round, Episode 11: An Intervi..."
As someone who personally suffers from Resting Bitch Face (RBF) I hate this. Although, I chuckled at #8…lol She is always accused of side eyeing and shading something..or being angry about who and whatever when she is probably just thinking about going to bed, her kids, or whatever boring event she is attending. She is probably one of the most personable and friendly first ladies we've ever had tbh. I also think there is an element of stereotyping here… even with the so called positive comments. Most of these aren't even close to side eyes…except for the fact that she may literally be looking to the side. I realize its just jokes, but there is another element there esp since day 1 the Right has tried to paint her as this super angry person.
I feel like this list is one big humble brag…
I notice a lot of women emphasizing education and deemphasizing rushing to marriage young. I find this refreshing since some people compare women today to those of past generations saying they need to be less career minded and more family minded. Maybe that lifestyle wasn't all it was cracked it up to be… hence the generational shift. Just a thought.
Response to All The Looks From Black Girls Rock 2015:
Its a lot more than an awards show. Its actually an organization that focuses on empowering young African American girls to counter the negative images often fed to them by the media. They do quite bit of role modeling, mentoring, scholarships, camps, sponsored international trips to Africa etc. with the goal of bolstering self esteem and forming a healthy sense of identity. The annual awards show is just the biggest event and gets press because quite a few celebrities are involved. Heres an example of one their camps and what they're all about: https://vimeo.com/82984213
Does this reality make you uncomfortable?
It should.
As I believe is pretty standard in a lot of developing countries… if you see a Nigerian wearing something secondhand, 9 times out of 10 it was brought over by family or friends of family who live abroad. Literally billions of dollars worth of goods are brought in to the country every year from expats and considering there are like 200k Nigerian born individuals in the UK (not even including 2nd/3rd generation immigrants) I'm willing to bet that a distant family member attended Gina's "Hen Do" in 2010 and decided to part with the tank.
While well intentioned these projects basically just focused on the same standard of beauty and then traveled around the world to find women who still fit that exact same standard. Despite being of various ethnicities and skin colors they all had pretty similar features tbh. Its inevitable because the photographer herself is using her own definition of naturally beautiful women with her own subconscious biases. What would be really interesting is to have photographers that are actually from each of these countries find and photograph the women. I'd like to know what it means to be a beautiful woman from Peru, Kenya, China etc. from their own point of view. It may not even be that different from what is presented here since beauty standards have become increasingly globalized, but would be interesting nonetheless.
PSA: Actually, shaving causes skin irritation and in grown hairs for a lot of people… especially people of color. Beware of shaving your face if you are a prone because you will get razor bumps that look like acne.
Response to 17 Times The Ashy Struggle Was Too Real:
lmao Bill Burr has a whole stand up about the epiphany he had one day about being ashy…. Just because you can't see it easily doesn't mean its not there. Lotion up folks. Its winter.
Response to You're Probably Cleaning Your Vagina Wrong:
One thing that was never mentioned here was Bacterial vaginosis… which is actually the most common cause of a bad odor as well as abnormal discharge. Splashing some water on the vulva won't do much in that case. And likely women with recurrent Bv are the ones resorting to douching, "steaming", etc.. Its a chicken vs. the egg conundrum. Which came first? Anyway, my point is Go to your Dr….. If its a recurrent problem there is more that can be done besides antibiotics.
Worst conditions ever. It s takes me 2x as long to get anywhere because I'm so scared of falling….partially thanks to my stint working in an emergency room. Still remember the guy who slipped on a crosswalk and managed to burst his bladder on the curb. Happy winter y'all!
Response to This Year's "Vanity Fair" Hollywood Issue Took A Huge Step Backward In Terms Of Diversity:
I'm Black and I think articles like this do little more than to make accomplishments by POC look like affirmative action…. To accurately assess this issue you'd have to ask who the actors/actresses of color in movies this year were? Were they bigger than any of the White people on that cover? Or maybe the were better but not bigger because they weren't recognized? So who should have replaced whom? I know I would have preferred to see an article highlighting some underrated actors of color and their work instead of this…because it holds no weight.
BTW She took a break because she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder called Graves disease.
Can twerking be a white thing now? That is one appropriation I do not mind lol

Classic Editions' latest, The Girls of The Chorus Line, is a classic example of potentially exciting adult entertainment that looks like its going to be great, but leaves you feeling disappointed! Even Stacey Donovan, who looks and screws better than ever, can't save this shot-on-video featurefrom annoying overused computerized graphics and a storyline that never even bothers to develop!
The "story" is something to the effect of show director Paul Thomas interviewing potential candidates for the cast of a Broadway show, the players' retell past romantic interludes with other dancers, who are conveniently located backstage.
The Girls of The Chorus Line does feature a few good sex scenes—with Donovan, Thomas and Sondra Stillman— that might make this video digestible to their individual fans. Also, The Girls of The Chorus Line has one of the nicest boxes that I ever had the pleasure to open! The packaging is AAAA material; unfortunately the content within the packaging is only half as good!

The smelly, white, racist zombies of Occupy Wall Street are getting the attention they crave (and deserve).
David Duke, former Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan agrees with the antisemitic, hate-the-Jews mob that Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi love.
Hatred breeds more hate. These spoiled crybabies of the Occupy ______________ group (you can fill in the blanks) are attracting in kind followings of hate groups and those who want to see America fail. How long will it be before #OWS adopts the white robes and hoods favored by other hate groups like the KKK?
And one of the most ironic things I have heard to date is the woman whining because someone stole her $5,500. What did she expect? The entire group wants what someone else has. They didn't steal her laptop, it was "redistributed" to someone who thought she had more then they did – and they took it from her. The really sad part is that she fails to see the connection. These people are advocating the same thing from the "rich" on Wall Street. (Or Cleveland, or wherever.) To the thief, she was rich. But to her, it was theft.
There's a lesson here. Pity these people are too dense to see that.
And they are apparently redistributing coats, tents, food, coolers and the other necessities from those who have more than someone else.
And judging by the rapes, even women's bodies are something to be taken by others who want them. These people are getting exactly what they are demanding. A total forced sharing of everything. While they would all steal from the "wealthy" Wall Street workers, it seems that the obvious lesson is that wealth is relative. Unless you are the most impoverished person in the world, you are always more wealthy than someone else.
But the sheer stupidity of these imbeciles aside, when people like David Duke jump onto your bandwagon, you have a serious problem. And the "Occupy" movement has a serious problem.
Unfortunately, the Obama infatuated media is not reporting the truth when it comes to #OWS. They are waiting to see if the movement can somehow work to Obama's advantage. After all, they both have the same goals – take from others. Redistribute.
But given the reality of what it is like to be on the negative side of the redistribution by having their own property stolen should give these moochers a clue.
But it won't.
So, enjoy the company of hatemonger David Duke. You are all peas in the same hate-filled pod.

DALLAS -- For a team trying to secure home-court advantage for the first two rounds of the playoffs, the Dallas Mavericks still aren't doing a good job of winning at home.
For anyone who thought the eight straight wins they ran off at the American Airlines Center during the 13-game win streak had turned that trend, think again. The Mavs are just 3-3 at home since, and that includes a 34-point whipping by the New York Knicks, a late collapse against the Boston Celtics and now Thursday's cold-shooting 97-82 defeat to the Orlando Magic.
The damage included a slip to the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference standings behind the Utah Jazz, who have the same record but own the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Phoenix Suns can move into a dead heat in the standings with a win at Detroit on Friday night. The Mavs own that tiebreaker, but clearly the No. 2 seed -- which provides home-court advantage through the first two playoff rounds -- is wide open in the final two weeks of the season.
"The No. 2 seed is up for grabs," Jason Kidd said. "For us, it's not the 2-seed. It's to try to win every game. We'd like to win them all and see what happens. If not, championship teams find a way to win on the road, it's been proven."
The Mavs on Thursday couldn't crack the defense of the defending Eastern Conference champs and finished with their lowest point total in more than two months and their poorest shooting percentage (38.3) in nearly two months. At the other end, Orlando dialed up 14 3-pointers as reserve Mickael Pietrus hit 6 of 6, matched Dirk Nowitzki's 24 points and outscored the Mavs' other four starters combined.
"It happens. It's not that we didn't try," said Kidd, who finished with seven points and two of the Mavs' season-low seven assists. "We were in a dogfight last night and it was a quick turnaround, and they were a fresh team that hadn't played and they were prepared."
Yes, the scheduling gods did the Mavs no favors. This was the tail end of a back-to-back, while the Magic had not played since beating Denver at home Sunday. Still, the Mavs have to take some of the blame for requiring the energy to pull off a near-miraculous overtime comeback at Memphis.
That slim victory prevented the Mavs from taking a losing record (they're 5-5) since the big win streak into Saturday's home game against the rolling Oklahoma City Thunder.
"I don't believe in schedule losses. It's just we were a little flat, unfortunately," Nowitzki said of the Magic loss. "We're obviously not the youngest team anymore, so definitely an overtime game didn't help."
Mavs players wouldn't admit to being gassed, although their statistics would suggest otherwise. Rick Carlisle said he didn't fault his team's effort. Shots simply didn't go down, he said, and they allowed too many 3s. Add 17 points and 20 rebounds from Dwight Howard, and the Mavs were cooked early in the third quarter when Orlando extended a seven-point halftime lead to 10, and eventually 18.
"We've got to continue to work to get better," Carlisle said. "We are trying to get [the] No. 2 seed, or No. 1 if something happened and the Lakers completely fell off the face of the earth, but playing your best at the right time is the real critical thing."
The Mavs are a riddle this season, a markedly improved road team from a year ago with 24 wins, the most in the West. Yet they've often appeared passionless at home at 26-12, the most losses among West playoff teams other than a young Oklahoma City squad (13) and depleted Portland (13).
"Do I have a great answer for it? I don't," Carlisle said. "We're a much better road team than we were last year; that's a real positive. We're not as good at home as we were last year, and that's been a challenge."
It will be more of the same when the Thunder visit Saturday. Oklahoma City will have had two days off since sweeping a two-game road trip at Philadelphia and Boston. The Thunder have won four of five and continue to battle for playoff seeding.
The Mavs won't practice Friday, seeking a little rest for their weary bones with six games left -- three at home and three on the road -- and the No. 2 seed up for grabs.
"The good thing is," Nowitzki said, "there is no back-to-backs in the playoffs."

A DAMN lie? Wednesday, Aug 22 2012
1 7:00 am
Kyle Plotkin
Since shortly after Bobby Jindal took over the governor's office, I have been on the list for press releases from his office. Also, unlike, Lt. Gov. Jay Dardenne, I also receive notices of when Jindal is leaving the state.
During those four and a half years, I was only dropped from the list once, last month. Read about it here.
Tuesday, I realized that once again I was not getting the notices. Here is a chronological listing of what transpired.
I wrote the following email to Kyle Plotkin, Communications Direction for Bobby Jindal and his deputy Aaron Baer:
I haven't been getting press releases of late. No mention of Bobby campaigning in Iowa today.
It is difficult to determine who is the governor of my state each day.
If I don't get a response by 1 PM today it will mean that I've been removed from the distribution list in retaliation for complaining about Bobby's DHH hire who refuses ro pay her LA taxes and abide by other state laws.
I received the following response from Plotkin:
Once again. You haven't been removed.
(The "once again" reference is to the last time he removed me and denied it.)
My response:
We won't quibble over semantics; just put me back on the list.
Plotkin's response:
CB. You are on the list.
Thereafter, two Capitol reporters Tweeted that Jindal was going to Iowa today to campaign for Mitt Romney.
The reporters received notifications of Jindal's trip from Plotkin's office.
A couple of hours later, I still had not received the notification and am, obviously, not back on the list.
I don't know how to describe Plotkin's statements, but a DAMN lie!
This is another example of how little Jindal thinks of citizens of Louisiana.

Here's a nice Pesach tale from Rabbi Mark Winer, of West London Synagogue, who told it in a sermon given to the recent World Union of Progressive Judaism conference in Israel:
"One of my favourite stories of our Progressive Jewish impact on the world around us comes from Michael Farbman. During the three years that he was our Progressive rabbi in Sha'arei Shalom in St Petersburg, Michael and Olga sent their son Samuel to a regular state-supported school.
"Invariably, Samuel was the only Jewish child in the class. One year just before Pesach, Michael and Olga paid a special visit to Samuel's teacher in school, to explain that during the week of Pesach, Samuel would be eating only matzah. The teacher requested that Michael and Olga bring in a box of matzah a week before Pesach, so that all of the children in Samuel's class could sample matzah.
"After tasting our "bread of affliction," the children in Samuel's class voted unanimously that in solidarity with their friend and classmate Samuel, they would all eat only matzah during Pesach. That is not the Russia any of us imagine... The next time you wonder what we are doing sponsoring Progressive synagogues in the former Soviet Union, think of that story."

HP Solution Center problem
i have an c8180 installed on a windows 7 64-bit operating system. Until a couple of days ago the HP solution center worked well. Now when i open it get this message:" Center can not run because device installation is incomplete"
i have unistalled and re-installed twice without success. Does anyone know what has happened and how to fix it?
cheers, krauelly
Re: HP Solution Center problem
I have the exact same problem. This just started about 4 days ago. When I first install the software, solutions center pops up and works fine, but after a reboot, I get teh same error meesage that the software cannot run due to "device installation is incomplete"
Is there a fix out there?
Re: HP Solution Center problem
My problem was my HP Solution Center face was went blank. I know your problem may not be the same as mine, but how I sloved my problem was I just went to the control panel and uninstall only the "Solution Center" software. Then i went to the HP website and downloaded <http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategor
Everything else failed, my CD didn't either. I uninstalled the whole package and then re-installed it. It still didn't work until I did what I wrote above. I think the HP.COM home page has the latest downlods and updates going. Just try it, it just might work!
Re: HP Solution Center problem
I tried updating, downloading from the web, and reinstalling from the CD, I had the same problem with Windows Vista and each time I get the response from updates or reinstalls that a newer version is already installed. I now have NO versions of Solution Center and Support is nonexistent unless you want to pay for it. Without Solution Center, the printer is worthless. Guess I will be shopping for ANOTHER printer, NOT HP
Re: HP Solution Center problem
I uninstalled then reinstalled my 4315 all in one and the solution center response is no devices are connected even though I got another message saying your device is ready for use. So how can I repair or reestablish it.
Re: HP Solution Center problem
I am having the same problem with my printer C4400 series. Have been trying for days to download solution center so that I can scan from my printer....Does any one know the solution to this problem?

Japan Looking To Replace Lost Nuclear Power With Fossil Fuels
CREDIT: Shutterstock
In the wake of the Fukushima disaster, Japan shut down a good deal of its nuclear reactors — and it looks like coal may be replacing them.
Before the 2011 accident, in which a tidal wave caused three of the six nuclear reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi plant to go into meltdown, Japan only got 62 percent of its electricity from fossil fuels. Nuclear power made up the vast majority of the rest.
Since then, environmentalists' hopes that the Japanese government would use the incident as an opportunity to move to renewables have not panned out. According to Bloomberg, coal and liquified natural gas rose in fiscal year 2012 to make up 90 percent of Japan's electricity generation. And on April 11, the Japanese cabinet approved a new energy plan that designates coal as an important long-term energy source, giving it the same prominence as nuclear in Japan's energy strategy. The new plan sets no specific goals for electricity from renewable sources such as wind, solar and geothermal.
"You cannot exclude coal when you think about the best energy mix for Japan to keep energy costs stable," Naoya Domoto, the president of energy and plant operations at coal energy technology developer IHI Corp., told Bloomberg. "One way to do that is to use coal efficiently."
Japan's coal consumption jumped 19.3 percent to 59.93 million metric tons in the country's fiscal year for 2013, which just ended in March. Liquified natural gas, the other big component of the country's new energy mix, only rose 0.5 percent to hit 56.09 million metric tons.
There is some good news from a climate perspective, however. Coal and liquified natural gas only made up about half the lost nuclear power. The need for the remaining power was actually eliminated by a domestic campaign — called "setsuden" (power saving) — to ramp up energy conservation and efficiency. By encouraging companies and individuals to allow slightly higher temperatures in homes and offices, pushing more flexible dress codes at businesses to accommodate the increases, thinning interior lighting, reducing exterior lighting, and shutting down big screens, Japan was able to cut some of its demand for electricity rather than merely bulk up new supplies to replace the lost nuclear power.
Bloomberg also reported that Japanese officials hope the increase in coal burning will give the country the chance to demonstrate technologies that allow coal to be burned more cleanly and efficiently. Japan's Nakoso Power Station was originally set up as a testing ground for integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC), a methodology that turns coal into gas to be burned, removing impurities and lowering carbon emissions in the process. Once the Fukushima disaster began driving a shutdown in nuclear power, the plant and its 250 megawatt capacity was fully commercialized.
The Japanese hope is that such technologies could then be exported to places like the United States, where cleaner and more efficient technologies could help new and existing coal plants stay under the carbon emission rate targets the federal government is setting up.
Those exports could at least help mitigate another problem Japan's increased fossil fuel use is causing: a trade deficit. The country is poor in natural resources, so coal and natural gas have to imported. As a result, at this point, Japan has run 20 consecutive months of trade deficits. That means 20 straight months of Japanese dollars leaving the country and being spent abroad, which means a decrease in domestic demand. Countries usually have to plug the hole caused by trade deficits with increased borrowing by individuals, businesses, and the government.
Of course, if cutting the trade deficit is the goal, Japan could also reduce its fossil fuel consumption by taking advantage of the country's considerable potential for renewable energy generation.

Typically, we don't dedicate full posts to reviewing just one beer, but this one is a unique craft beer that everyone should try.
What makes this beer so cool? Well, first, it includes herbs like thyme, rosemary, parsley and sage as ingredients. Second, three of the country's best craft breweries joined up to collaborate on one beer. Dogfish Head, Stone, and Victory created a brew that I believe will satisfy all, and can be paired to just about anything. In fact, I challenge you to find a meal that this delicious beer does not sit well with.
Often times I have trouble describing a beer as "delicious" because most people associate that word with food. You call beers "strong" or "hoppy" or "full," but not delicious. However, after drinking this brew, I'm hoping most will change their minds (especially those people who think it's civilized to drink beer the color of piss).Read More›

An identity crisis has a Dunedin artist putting down roots in
the University of Otago College of Education and Otago
Polytechnic's Robertson Library this week.
''I'm appropriating the Pania of the Reef sculpture,
to examine my cultural dislocation from being and feeling
Maori,'' Dunedin artist Hana Aoake said yesterday.
''I'm interested in both sides of my family and I have a
complicated post-colonial identity. It's an ethnography based
on me feeling like a plastic Maori.''
The work features Aoake (24) draped in her grandmother's
blanket, surrounded by rocks her father got from mines he
worked in and botanic samples collected from places around
New Zealand where the artist has lived.
''I'm interested in ecological imperialism and the complexity
of post-colonial identities and how the settlers unsettled
the equilibrium everywhere they went,'' she said.
''I've been working as a florist and gardener for the last
two years and have been learning a lot about weeds and
natives. I have pieces of plants from each of the cities I've
been spending time in: Christchurch, Dunedin, Wellington and
The performance also features a video of Aoake humming
Pokarekare Ana in the Dunedin Botanic Garden.
Pania;;;Parahitiki is on at the Robertson Library
V-Space from 1pm to 3pm until Friday.
Aoake and V-Space curator Ted Whitaker will give a talk at
3.30pm tomorrow.

Could Leighton signing close door on Thomas?
|06.30.10 at 4:50 pm ET
Though we've been hearing all along that the Tim Thomas-to-Philadelphia rumors have been overblown, maybe today's news that the Flyers have re-signed Michael Leighton will make such chatter a little less believable — for now, at least.
TSN's Bob McKenzie reported the Flyers gave Leighton a two-year deal for $3.1 million total, and while that isn't a lot, McKenzie tweeted that, "Whatever happens with [Flyers] goaltending, the next guy in won't be making more than $2M per year." Evgeni Nabokov whom the Flyers recently traded for the rights of, is likely their No. 1 option, but all indications are he will test free agency on Thursday.
Brian Boucher is also under contract for next season and carries a cap hit of less than $1 million. Thomas is owed $5 million for each of the next three seasons.
Don't expect much in free agency
|06.30.10 at 3:33 pm ET
The Bruins have been incredibly busy this offseason, hogging the transactions log with their re-signings (Shawn Thornton, Dennis Seidenberg, Johnny Boychuk, Mark Recchi), a major trade for Nathan Horton, and making the second overall pick in last week's NHL draft.
In the process, they've tacked on more money to an already tight salary cap situation. The inflator clause to raise the cap to $59.4 million helped some, but when considering the raises to Seidenberg ($1 million) and Boychuk ($1.375 million), potential arbitration cases for Blake Wheeler and Mark Stuart, and a deal to be done for Tyler Seguin, it's no wonder general manager Peter Chiarelli has been speaking like someone who doesn't seem set on being a player when free agency opens on Thursday.
"We're going to work the trade market," Chiarelli said Tuesday. "We're not going out and signing anyone unless 1. We have someone we really want and/or we have the cap space. Right now we don't really have the cap space to go out and sign a big deal, but that could happen.
"We could make a trade and there could be cap space, but that doesn't mean we have someone in mind. We've got a list. The list is small and in the event we do enter it, unlikely."
Everyone has heard the rumors involving Marc Savard and Tim Thomas, but as is the team has just $5.40 million in cap space, with the aforementioned players (Wheeler, Stuart, Seguin), Daniel Paille, and Gregory Campbell still to be accounted for. It would appear that they would be pressed for cash even when trying to hold onto their own guys, let alone bring in outside help. They already moved Vladimir Sobotka rather than paying the restricted free agent, but could Wheeler be next?
Many speculated that Wheeler could have been moved to the Oilers in a deal that could have secured the Bruins Taylor Hall, but those rumors were debunked when the fact that the Oilers' plan was to get both Hall and Seguin came to light last Friday.
If the Bruins try to shed one of their current players' deals, they might not be able to do so without getting very little talent in return, which could be counterproductive to their chase for a Cup. With the exception of perhaps Savard, none of their bigger contracts are completely desirable for other teams to take on. If they move Thomas' $5 million, they run a big risk with whichever player they try to sign with the freed money, as history suggests Tuukka Rask hasn't been a No. 1 goalie long enough for the team to feel completely comfortable without another big-time netminder.
As for moving Savard, you'd have to think the Bruins have seen enough of a shakeup in their offense without potentially offsetting whatever upgrade it got with the addition of Horton. The "he's not a Neely type of player" talk might quiet down once the two play together.
Chiarelli said Wednesday that the team could look for another defenseman and a third goaltender, both of which would likely be low-cost options (especially the latter). He hinted on Thursday when appearing on Dennis & Callahan that "you might see a couple trades," but once again downplayed them doing much else.
The Bruins are by no means done when it comes to building the '10-'11 team. They may even steal a some more headlines in the next few days. Just don't expect them to be with free agent signings.
Chiarelli on D&C: team has 'flexibility' with Seguin
|06.30.10 at 12:03 pm ET
Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli joined the Dennis & Callahan show Wednesday morning to discuss free agent moves, the future for Tim Thomas and Marc Savard, as well as his expectations for draft pick Tyler Seguin.
Said Chiarelli: "I don't want to put too much pressure on Tyler, but he's a terrific talent, and he should be ready to play and contribute at some point next year."
Following is a transcript. To listen to the entire interview visit the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
What are we looking for in terms of free agent moves?
I don't know if you'll see us go after any premier, in fact I do know that we won't go after any premier guys. We feel that we have added two premier players in Nathan Horton and Tyler Seguin in the last week or so. What you might see from us though is another trade or two. '¦ These trades are around the free agency period, they happen because teams are deciding how to spend their money. I have had a couple of conversations with teams, you might see a couple trades on our part.
What's the biggest impetus on your end when making a trade?
It goes back to the end of the year when we said we wanted to change part of the composition of the team; I'm all ears. I've got a lot of discussions going on a number of different fronts. I don't want to change things too much, I've already changed them a little bit. I don't quite think I'm done yet, so that may mean a defensemen, that may mean a forward. I know getting Tyler Seguin we have more centers now; he can play the wing, his first year in juniors he played wing the whole year. We've got a lot of options. '¦ There's a couple of things we're looking at, and if they come true I think they'll be good for the team.
What are the odds of you trading Tim Thomas?
First, let me say that Tim Thomas does not want to be traded. Second, I know that he wants to be the number one goalie on the Bruins. Having said that. '¦ If we keep all things as is, we'll be tight but we'll be fine. The [salary] cap went up to [$59.6 million], with the union electing the escalator. There's a performance cushion that the union elected also, so we're fine that way. Again, looking at all these options, I said last week about Tim, if something comes up I'll discuss with Tim and his family. We're not overtly looking; there are teams looking for goalies so we'll see how that unfolds. Read the rest of this entry »

Seguin on Dale & Holley: 'No idea' where I would be drafted
|06.29.10 at 6:06 pm ET
Tyler Seguin, the recent No. 2 overall draft pick by the Boston Bruins, joined Dale & Holley on Tuesday afternoon to talk about his relationship with Taylor Hall, how he's improved his game, and what position he prefers to play.
'My improvement level has always been really good,' Seguin said. 'I just think it's the little things, the sacrifices off the ice, the commitment that you need to go to the next level. I've had my family and supporting cast to teach me along the way and I think I've just been maturing as a player and a person off the ice and I really just want to stay as consistent here as I can throughout.'
Seguin also spoke about his idol growing up and comparisons in his game to Steve Yzerman.
Below is the transcript of the interview. Visit the Dale & Holley audio on demand page to hear the interview.
Did you know on draft night that you were going to be the No. 2 pick?
No, I had absolutely no idea. It was definitely a very exciting day for my family and I, and we kind of took it all in. It was phenomenal being there in Los Angeles and the hospitality they gave us. I had no idea where I was going but I was very excited when it was announced.
What's your relationship like with Taylor Hall?
Well I met him a couple times just through the events at the draft here. Whether it was the top prospect game or the world junior camp, stuff like that. At the end of the year, we kind of got together to go to Philadelphia for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup playoffs and I guess we bonded a bit more. At the draft we had a lot of events together as well. In the end, we were rivals and I guess we had more of a healthy competition on the ice. That's as far as it's gone, and now that it's all said and done, I doubt we're going to keep contact.

Busy day continues as Seguin and Horton take to the streets
|06.29.10 at 5:30 pm ET
BOSTON — Street hockey, that is. After meeting the press at the Garden less than four hours earlier, new Bruins Tyler Seguin and Nathan Horton played some outdoor puck with local youths at Puopolo Park in the North End.
"It's not too bad," Seguin said of a day that has already seen an airplane and two media events. "The flight this morning was an hour long and then the press conference, then this. I think when Fenway Park kind of hits I think it's going to be a long day, but it should be lots of fun."
Seguin and Horton continued the fun by teaming with the local youths as part of the Bruins Street Brigade. The two seemed to enjoy the entire event (with the exception of Seguin getting hit with multiple balls that he jokingly wrote off as "blocked shots").
"Back in Plymouth in the OHL we always tried to give back to the fans for all the support they'd given us, and this is a nice event to start off my experience here in Boston," Seguin said. "Just to meet some of the fans and play a little hockey."
The event got off to an interesting start, as the first two shots Tyler Seguin took as a member of the Boston Bruins were saved by an 11 year-old named Chris. Seguin continued to take warmup shots with the kids while advising them on basics, such as how to curve a stick.
Once the game kicked off, it was fairly apparent Seguin and Horton appear to have developed quite the rapport as they spend the entire day together. After Horton's team scored their fourth goal, former Bruin Tommy Songin shouted , "Horton with the assist!" Seguin immediately responded with "Horton with his first point of the game! He finally decides to get out there and do something."
Based on what Horton told the media before the game, he could have taken offense. Asked if he played street hockey as a child, he responded, "All the time."
"That's the thing to do when you're little: play street hockey and play it all day long," Horton said. "I did it all the time and still continue to play."
Meanwhile, Seguin, who didn't shy away from talking to his fans (he even sarcastically called a kid out for cherry-picking), used the game to shake the rust off for developmental camp, which will take place July 6-10.
"I haven't played hockey in about two weeks, so this is getting me ready for next week's development camp," Seguin said.
There were a few laughable points of the event, with perhaps none being funnier than the awkward encounter that occured when a youth told Seguin that acquaintance and OHL/draft stock rival Taylor Hall "is not even that good." Seguin didn't respond but smirked as he looked down.
On the contrary, however, Horton and Seguin actually contributed quite a bit to the game, with Seguin adding a valuable defensive presence to the black team (a.k.a the "Bruins) and Horton setting up gold team ("Better Bruins") youngsters. The Bruins won the game, as a local named Huey notched a hat trick and recieved a Bruins gift bag from Seguin and Horton for his hard work.

ALBERTVILLE, Ala. (AP) - The shooting death of a former Marshall County investigator is under scrutiny by the Alabama Bureau of Investigation.
Authorities said 51-year-old David Lowe was shot dead late Tuesday night in the backyard of his house in Albertville. It happened around 11 p.m.
Lowe is a former investigator with the sheriff's department and the district attorney's office. He retired 4 years ago.
The ABI isn't saying much about the investigation, but a law enforcement source said the shooting might be connected to domestic

<?php if (get_field('blog_description')) { ?>

<?php the_field('blog_heading') ?>

<?php } ?>
<?php if (get_field('blog_description')) { ?>

<?php the_field('blog_description') ?>
<?php } ?>
I've used the same code on other template files for other pages, and they work fine, but I can't seem to get it working on the index.php file. Is there a specific way to post on the index.php file?
For an example, see the following pages:
Working page (same code, different field names): http://prodynamo.ca/wordpress/services/
Non working page (triple checked field names): http://prodynamo.ca/wordpress/blog/
Thanks in advance

All-American Nate Burleson is one of six former student-athletes being inducted in the Nevada Athletics Hall of Fame this year.
Oct. 2, 2012
RENO, Nev. - Former Wolf Pack star Nate Burleson will attend Saturday's football game vs. Wyoming to accept his Nevada Athletics Hall of Fame plaque.
An All-America selection for the Wolf Pack in 2002, Burleson will act as an honorary team captain for the pregame coin toss and be recognized for his induction into the Hall of Fame during an on-field presentation during the first quarter at Mackay Stadium.
Currently a wide receiver with the Detroit Lions, Burleson will be unable to attend Nevada's Hall of Fame Weekend Oct. 19-20 due to the Lions' game with the Chicago Bears that week.
Burleson starred for the Wolf Pack at wide receiver from 1999-2002. He earned first-team All-WAC honors and won Nevada's Golden Helmet Award as team MVP in 2002 after setting the school record with 138 receptions. The Wolf Pack's Offensive Player of the Year in 2000, he ranks third in career receptions with 248 and fourth in career receiving yards with 3,287 and also checks in at third in single-season receiving yards with 1,629 in 2002 and sixth in career receiving touchdowns with 22 in the Nevada record book.
He was drafted in the third round of the 2003 NFL Draft and has gone on to have a standout career in the NFL with Minnesota, Seattle and Detroit. He also founded the Nate BurlesonC.A.T.C.H Foundation to reach and teach children and their families by providing them with educational tools to succeed as well as enriching their lives by showing them how to care for others, themselves and their future.
Burleson as well as fellow 2012 Hall of Fame inductees Jennifer Ashcroft (track and field), Tracey King (women's tennis), Mike Maxwell (football), Don Price (baseball) and Angie Yoon Adams (women's golf) will be formally inducted into the University of Nevada Athletics Hall of Fame on Friday, Oct. 19 at the Hall of Fame Dinner at the Reno Ballroom. They will also be recognized at halftime of the Hall of Fame game against San Diego State on Saturday, Oct. 20.

For a long time, another blog (someone we know, not too much of an issue) were automatically reposting our content on their blog.
We've recently rebuilt the site under a .co.uk domain name rather than the .com we had, and now redirected the .com to the .co.uk. I thought this would also stop the reposting to this other site, but is still happening - we are not credited for the posts, and we imagine it is stealing a good amount of traffic.
Is there a way to block it from happening? I've scanned the forums here but havn't been able to find anything.
Any help on this would be much appreciated!
Thanks, Rob.

Re-enactors at Plimoth Plantation resurrect Plymouth Colony in its infancy
The spin came in the 1840s when an English poetess named Felicia Hermans wrote "The Landing of the Pilgrim Fathers in New England." Though wildly inaccurate, it spawned shoals of books and illustrations that permanently dipped the Pilgrims in prim Victorian black.
The purpose of Plimoth Plantation, a nonprofit launched in 1947, is to strip away the myths — including those about the fall harvest feast with the locals that we have come to venerate as Thanksgiving.
The sheer volume of original writings and meticulous records helps set the record straight — but also complicates matters.
Plymouth is home to the Mayflower Society, whose members are descendants of the 29 adult Mayflower passengers known to have had children. Besides validating Pilgrim descendants' genealogy, the society researches the colony's early days.
As a result, re-creating the Pilgrim experience at Plimoth Plantation is a bit like owning a restaurant where food inspectors eat.
But its cast and "stage" get high marks from both venerable organizations.
"They're interested in getting the facts as right as they can," says Carolyn Travers, the librarian of the Mayflower Society. "We have done programs in conjunction with them; their staff can use our library for free."
Travers is also aware of the hurdles character-specific re-enactors face down on the Plantation: "We at the Society can say, "Person X's parents are unknown. That's a fact. We can fudge or later change our minds." But that inconvenient reality doesn't play out at Plimoth Plantation, she says: "The person being depicted would, of course, know who his or her parents are, and if asked simply have to say, 'My father's name is... John,' or whatever."
Re-enactors learn to sidestep unanswerable questions when possible — and to know their real-life character intimately enough to stay convincingly in character.
Travers knows the drill quite well: She is a former cast member herself.
"It is like theater, in that you're always learning about the person you play."
Even on a summer afternoon, visitors outnumber settlers. If, say, Miles Standish or Gov. Bradford is absent, you may be told he's out farming, or absent on a visit to the Indians. And in truth, the Pilgrims didn't loiter around the stockade to greet curious tourists.
Plimoth Plantation is set in 1627 because it was when the Pilgrims gave up on communal economics.
If thou goest …
Plimoth Plantation, 137 Warren Ave., Plymouth, Mass. (use Exit 4 off Mass. 3), is open 9 a.m.-5 or 5:30 p.m. daily through Nov. 25, then closed until March.
Admission: $29.50; $26.50 for 62 and older; $19 for ages 6-12; 5 and younger, free — includes the 1627 English Village, Wampanoag Homesite, visitor center (introductory film and exhibits), craft center (artisans make settler/Indian artifacts the time-honored way) and Nye Barn (live animals in breeds similar to what the Pilgrims had). All are at the main Plimoth site. Included is admission to the Mayflower II, downtown in Plymouth Harbor. A wide array of special programs is offered throughout the year; check the schedule posted online.

The Orioles announced Monday that three players have been removed from their 40-man roster, leaving them at 37 during the first official day of the winter meetings.
Left-hander Scott Barnes, who was acquired by the Orioles last month from the Cleveland Indians for cash, was claimed off waivers by the Texas Rangers, while infielder Steve Lombardozzi (Atholton) and left-hander Pat McCoy cleared waivers and were outrighted to Triple-A Norfolk.
Barnes and McCoy had both been added to the Orioles' 40-man roster this offseason to improve depth in the bullpen.
Barnes, 27, was acquired two weeks ago after he was designated for assignment by Cleveland. He didn't...

TALLAHASSEE -- Some were the victims of clear crimes of brutality: a 3-month-old hit repeatedly in the stomach by her father until she was dead. A 10-month old girl killed after being shaken furiously by her mother.
Others were the victims of their parents' carelessness: two children left alone in a house played with a lighter and died in the ensuing fire.
Two kids were shot by siblings in cases where guns were left unlocked.
They were the children who died in Florida as a result of child abuse or neglect in 2004, 111 of them in all, state officials said last week.
Each year, the Florida Child Abuse Death Review Team releases data about the children.
Neglect, abuse deaths in 2004
Causes of death in 108 abuse and neglect cases in Florida in 2004 that were reviewed by a state review team. Three other deaths remain under review. Not all deaths are listed and the identities of the children weren't released.
NEGLECT (66 deaths)
22 children drowned, most commonly in swimming pools, where 11 unsupervised children died.
10 children died from hyperthermia -- overheating in a car.
10 children died by sleeping with a parent or other adult, or otherwise asphyxiated because of improper sleeping position.
5 children died in car crashes or were hit by cars in cases where inadequate supervision was found to contribute to the death.
2 children died from medical neglect. One was in a detention facility where staff didn't provide proper medical care, the other child was denied medical care by the child's father.
2 children died after being accidentally shot by siblings who found unlocked guns.
2 children died from undernourishment or dehydration.
2 teens died from overdosing or poisoning by drugs in cases where their parents allowed them to abuse drugs.
Other causes of death included accidental strangulation with a mini-blind, improper medication given by parents, death in house fires set by children, drug use by the mother during pregnancy.
ABUSE (42 deaths)
23 children died from trauma.
5 children died from shaking or impact, such as being dropped.
5 children died in a house fire intentionally set by parents.
Other causes of death included murder by gunshot, stabbing, or suffocation.
The review takes about a year, which is why the data released last week are for 2004 cases.
The 111 children who died in 2004 from abuse or neglect was up from 95 in 2003.
The 2004 review only included 108 of those cases, however, because officials still didn't have key information in three of the cases.
But of those 108 cases, most -- 66 -- were victims of neglect.
The most common type of neglect death was drowning.
The review found that 22 children drowned in 2004 -- 11 in swimming pools.
Three children drowned in a bathtub and one in a bucket.
The rest drowned in canals, ponds or other water bodies.
"Drowning deaths are often called 'tragic accidents,' while they should be called 'tragic deaths that could have been prevented,' " the review team said in recommending more public awareness on the risk of children drowning in backyard pools.
The panel noted that all the 22 children who drowned were unsupervised at the time.
Drowning is listed as the top cause of death for children in many Southern states each year.
Ten children died in Florida in 2004 from being left in overheated cars, or getting into an unlocked car they couldn't get out of.
The review team recommended public service announcements that would remind parents that children should never be left unattended in a car, and that if they have young kids, they should lock their car and keep keys out of kids' reach.
"Parents and caretakers need to get the word out that a car is not a baby sitter, but can easily become an oven," the panel said.
Ten children died in their sleep from unsafe conditions, such as some who were asphyxiated by loose bedding or a parent sleeping with them.
Another five died in vehicle accidents where their death was considered the result of inadequate supervision.
In one case, a child died in a crash in which the child's mother was driving drunk.
Forty-two children died as a direct result of abuse, the majority from physical trauma, such as a beating. Five died from being shaken, dropped or thrown against something.
Five children died in house fires intentionally started by their parents.
The team reviewed all child abuse and neglect deaths in Florida in 2004 -- the first time it has done that.In previous years, it has looked at only some deaths.
Still, the panel said that the data it has, even going back the six years it has researched abuse deaths, doesn't provide a large enough sample to identify many conclusive trends or patterns.
The panel did note some broad trends over the six years it has collected data.
For example, neglect deaths have been more common than abuse deaths, and over the period, male children have been more likely to be the victims than female children.
From 1999 to 2004, the data also show that 60 percent of child victims have been white and 38 percent black.
Fathers or mothers' boyfriends were responsible in 26 percent of deaths, while mothers were responsible in 40 percent of the deaths.
Many of the children were in homes where several risk factors for abuse were found, including a pattern of past abuse or neglect, a parent's criminal history, domestic violence, and alcohol or other substance abuse.

Abstract: Biological indicators, particularly benthic macroinvertebrates, are widely used and effective measures of the impact of urbanization on stream ecosystems. A multimetric biological index of urbanization was developed using a large benthic macroinvertebrate dataset (n = 1,835) from the Baltimore, Maryland, metropolitan area and then validated with datasets from Cleveland, Ohio (n = 79); San Jose, California (n = 85); and a different subset of the Baltimore data (n = 85). The biological metrics used to develop the multimetric index were selected using several criteria and were required to represent ecological attributes of macroinvertebrate assemblages including taxonomic composition and richness (number of taxa in the insect orders of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera), functional feeding group (number of taxa designated as filterers), and habit (percent of individuals which cling to the substrate). Quantile regression was used to select metrics and characterize the relationship between the final biological index and an urban gradient (composed of population density, road density, and urban land use). Although more complex biological indices exist, this simplified multimetric index showed a consistent relationship between biological indicators and urban conditions (as measured by quantile regression) in three climatic regions of the United States and can serve as an assessment tool for environmental managers to prioritize urban stream sites for restoration and protection.

An electrical short sparked a house fire in north Amarillo and caused $8,000 in damages Friday.
About 6:25 p.m., firefighters saw light smoke coming from the eaves of a home at 4611 Angelus Dr., acting district chief Brent Clark said. Firefighters tore off two roofs and found fire inside the wall, he said.
The fire spread to the attic, and two rooms were damaged to gain access to the fire, officials said.
Clark said firefighters had a hard time finding the fire because of the two roofs. Firefighters controlled the blaze at 7:07 p.m., fire officials said.
No one was injured in the fire, officials said.
The home is owned by Julian and Lillie Cordova and is valued at $100,052, according to the Potter-Randall Appraisal District website.

Funding Ralph Nader
A piece I did on Ralph Nader and the PIRG groups a while back is getting some love around the blogosphere. On the way home last night, I was listening to"The Chris Core Show" on D.C.'s WMAL, and Core too was bashing Nader, but said the man at least"walked the walk." Not true. In his own organizations, Nader routinely breaks all the rules he insists corporate America follow, particularly when it comes to labor.
Of course, he's not alone. The"do as we say, not as we do" credo seems to be pretty common among leftist labor activist groups.
Even more disappointing, I learned after I wrote the Nader piece that Craig Rucker and C-FACT -- the conservative group that's been mounting legal challenges against the PIRGS all over the country -- themselves resorted to the same kind of funding scams they built a reputation criticizing the PIRGS for.
