Bruce Willis
Bringing together some heavy hitters, Lionsgate's "Marauders" just rolled out a preview trailer and promotional poster for all to enjoy.
The forthcoming action thriller stars Bruce Willis, Christopher Meloni, Dave Bautista and Adrian Grenier, and is slated to hit theaters on July 1st.
He always seems to assemble an outstanding cast for his films, and for his next untitled flick, Woody Allen has done it again.
According to a press release, the legendary writer/director corralled Parker Posey, Kristen Stewart, Bruce Willis, Blake Lively, Jesse Eisenberg, Corey Stoll and Anna Camp, though further details are scarce.
He's conquered both the television and movie realms, and now Bruce Willis is gearing up for his first foray into the world of Broadway Theater.
The "Die Hard" hunk will star in a stage adaptation of the Stephen King classic "Misery," taking on the role of Sheldon, an author who crashes his car, only to be rescued by an obsessed fan named Annie Wilkes, played by Elizabeth Marvel.
Growing up in a broken celebrity home can definitely saddle kids with serious baggage, and it turns out Tallulah Willis has been struggling with her own demons for years.
According to an insider, the 20-year-old daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore is finally getting treatment in a rehab facility after her family forced her to get better or get out.
With just over a month until the August 22nd release day, anticipation "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" is reaching a fever pitch.
Dimension Films just rolled out a new preview clip featuring the beautiful and talented Jessica Alba in her role as Nancy Callahan.
Releasing its second star-studded trailer, Dimension unveiled a brand new look at "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" on Wednesday (June 11).
The film from Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller is adapted from Miller's neo-noir graphic novels and follows city's thugs, lowlifes, and femme fatales in a big battle against each other.
Adding to their beautiful brood, Emma Heming and Bruce Willis became parents again on Monday (May 5) when their second daughter was born.
Weighing in at 8 pounds and 10 ounces, little Evelyn Penn Willis' delivery went smoothly and both mom and baby are doing well.
Amping up excitement for its summer release, the first trailer for "Sin City: A Dame to Kill" for hit the web this afternoon (March 6).
Boasting an incredibly star-studded cast, the sequel to "Sin City" follows "the town's most hard-boiled citizens cross paths with some of its more reviled inhabitants."
He may be almost 60 years old, but Bruce Willis is still adding members to his family as his wife Emma Heming is pregnant with their second child.
Spotted with a very noticeable baby bump, the 35-year-old model appears to be several months along.
They've been rehearsing all week for their gig at "Saturday Night Live" this weekend, and Bruce Willis and Katy Perry joined forces for a silly promo clip.
The "Story of Us" hunk lead off, "Hi I'm Bruce Willis and I'm hosting 'Saturday Night Live' this week with musical guest Katy Perry."

Three customs buildings have occupied the current site of the Old Customs House, culminating in the existing grand structure. Archaeological digs have revealed the foundations of the earlier buildings, and a detailed restoration project has returned the Customs House to its former glory.
The 1841 Customs House
Source: State Library of Victoria
A structure described as a 'shabby, leaky, comfortless, weatherboard cabin' was shipped in pieces from Sydney and erected here during the 1830s.
As trade increased, a two-storey bluestone Customs House was completed in 1841. Designed by the Government architect in Sydney, it was Melbourne's first stone building. However, by the 1850s critics called it one of the 'ugliest and most inconvenient of all our public buildings'.
With the vast increase in revenue brought by the gold rush, the Victorian Government commissioned immigrant architect Peter Kerr to design a new Customs House. Although the building was occupied by Customs in 1858, a shortage of funds prevented its completion. The building was finally completed in 1876, to a modified design by Kerr and two other government architects.

As Melbourne's trade increased, a bluestone Customs House with a slate roof was completed on this site in 1841. It sat by the Turning Basin, a natural pool on the Yarra River that was the highest point to which ships could navigate up the river.
Convicts were used to row the customs officers out to ships moored in the bay. Although the settlement was not a penal colony, several hundred convicts worked as servants or on government duties.

The present Customs House building is the result of two separate building phases over 20 years, architect Peter Kerr was involved in both.
With vastly expanded trade and soaring revenue from the gold rush, the Victorian colonial government commissioned Peter Kerr to design a new Customs House. Construction of the building commenced in 1855, but halted in 1858 when the economy slowed and government revenue declined.
Completion of a redesigned building recommenced in 1873, to a new design by Kerr and two other government architects, John James Clark and Arthur Ebden Johnson. The final 1876 building incorporated the Long Room from the 1850s building.

The Customs House was built to be one of Melbourne's grand buildings. Its grandeur declared that Melbourne was a thriving and wealthy metropolis, linked by trade to Britain and the other major cities of the British Empire.
Customs was the treasure house of government income. Until the introduction of income tax in 1915, customs duties raised some four-fifths of all government revenue.
The architecture was based on an Italian Renaissance palace. In the Palazzo style, the ground floor is a storage area, and the main activity occurs on the piano nobile (noble level) on the first floor.
Architect Peter Kerr modelled the ionic columns and door architraves on details of the Erechtheion temple in Athens. The plaster decorations may have been manufactured locally by British and Italian modellers, who established a local industry in the 1850s.

When the project to transform the Customs House into the Immigration Museum began in 1998, the building had been empty for six years. It was in a state of disrepair, and decades of alterations obscured many of its original features.
Since its construction in 1876, considerable changes had been made to the building's interior to accommodate a growing Customs Service. After Customs officers moved out in 1965, the building was used as Melbourne offices for the Commonwealth Parliament and its local members. Linoleum tiles had replaced original floors, a rabbit warren of office partitions disguised the original layout, plasterwork was cracked and paintwork peeling.
The challenge was to restore the Customs House to its original design, while adapting it to operate as a modern museum. Many of the twentieth century additions were erased, and architectural features such as tiled floors, moulded ceilings and timber details were restored.

METAIRIE — Six days after playing one of the worst games of his 12-year NFL career, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees made sure that the word cautious wasn't in his vocabulary when he met with reporters.
Even after throwing a career-high five interceptions in a 23-13 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Nov. 29, cautious is the last thing Brees plans to be in Sunday's game with the New York Giants.
Confident was a better word to hang his helmet on, which is what he said he'll be when the Saints go against the reigning Super Bowl champions.
"You stay aggressive … you stay confident," said Brees, who has thrown seven interceptions in the past two games and 16 picks for the season. "If you don't have trust and confidence in this league, you can't play.
"I understand the importance of taking care of the football," he said. "The last two weeks, the amount of turnovers can't happen. It's something I have to fix. I'm doing my best to do that. As far as being cautious or conservative, that's not going to happen."
No decision expected
Saints interim coach Joe Vitt told New York reporters Wednesday he doesn't expect to hear this week from retired NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue after the latest round of bounty hearings.
Tagliabue, a lawyer, was appointed by Commissioner Roger Goodell to hear the appeal of Jonathan Vilma and Will Smith and issue punishment for their alleged roles in the bounty scandal.
Tagliabue wrapped up the hearings in New Orleans on Monday when Vitt and Vilma testified. Since there was no word Wednesday, Vitt is hopeful that Vilma and Smith will be available for Sunday's game.
"The kind of man, the kind of commissioner Paul Tagliabue was and the man he is, I would be shocked if something came this week," Vitt said.
"He truly understands what a (NFL) work week is like. I think any decision that comes from his office would probably come at the conclusion of this game."
Practice report
Vitt turned in his first injury report of the week Wednesday, which was a lot shorter than it has been in recent weeks.
Vitt said the only players who did not participate in practice were tackle Charles Brown (knee), defensive end Martez Wilson (toe) and cornerback Johnny Patrick (illness).
Strong safety Roman Harper (rib) was limited, while defensive end Junior Galette (ankle), tight end David Thomas (knee), safety Isa Abdul-Quddus (concussion), defensive tackle Tom Johnson (back) and wide receiver Courtney Roby (hamstring) all had full participation.
Giants work light
After a Monday night loss to the Washington Redskins, Giants coach Tom Coughlin put his team through a "glorified jog-through" when they got back on the practice field Wednesday.
Not participating were running back Ahmad Bradshaw (foot), safety Kenny Phillips (knee), safety Tyler Sash (hamstring) and tight end Travis Beckum (knee).
Starting linebackers Chase Blackburn (ankle) and Michael Boley (shoulder) were limited, as was backup linebacker Jacquian Williams (knee).
Familiar face
Baker native and former Southern University player Lunda Wells is in his first season as an offensive assistant with the Giants.
Wells spent the past four seasons as a graduate assistant with LSU, where he served as an offensive line assistant in 2008-09.
Wells' administrative duties at LSU included self-scouting, breaking down tape of opponents, and developing scouting reports before being hired last winter shortly after the Giants won Super Bowl XLVI.
By the numbers
127 — Points scored by the Saints in their past three meetings with the Giants, whom they play Sunday. The Saints won 30-7 in 2006, 48-27 in 2009 and 49-24 last season.

I hear what your saying guy's but surely an MMA GB in the UK could be set up to represent the sport properly. Not so much to clean the sport up ( I dont think it needs that) but to assist promoters fighters and gyms in getting what they want. I have said before that not everyone has the same problems.
Dougie your new venture sounds good mate but when you come to Glasgow and a couple of other council areas you will find that its not the cage they have problems with its MMA and as a promoter they are not interested in talking to you.
Councils here want a governing body to shoulder the responsibilty and liabilty and until you can provide that they will not let you use thier venue's. If a governing body is not the answer then what is.

Not So Gleeful: What's Wrong With GQ's Latest Shoot
So, I know this is kind of dated, but please make fun of me, consider my humble excuse of being a senior coming up on college application deadlines, and then attempt to enjoy!
The reaction from feminists to the "Glee" themed photo shoot in the newest issue of GQ – a popular men's magazine – wasn't exactly surprising. The shot, which was done by infamous photographer Terry Richardson (no stranger to overtly sexual photo shoots and even sexual harassment claims) features three of the main stars of the Fox TV show in almost pornographic poses. Of course, there has been plenty of uproar concerning the fact that these overtly sexual images are borderline pedophilic – due to the fact that these actors portray teenaged characters and cater to a …

First of all, I love the site. I find every articles and threads that I get to read here really informative.
My concern is, before pregnancy it is not uncommon for my wife to have a migraine. I can say that she is dependent to headache relievers, Advils and the like. Now that she is pregnant and is not allowed to consume headache pills. Is there a way that she can be relieved when having headaches? Is there an alternative that is allowed to be consumed by a pregnant woman? If there isn't, is there an effective alternative to ease her head pains?
Thank you,

Hi Hans,
The first thing I would do is try to figure out what is causing the migraines, because headaches are not "normal". They can be managed with medications, but the root cause can cause problems in overall health if not addressed and corrected.
So... here's what I would do. The first thing I would do is I would get a gallon of distilled water (or pure water if distilled isn't available) and I would have that on hand so that at the first sign of a headache, I would drink as much of that water as I could possibly get down within 60 minutes. It can be dangerous to drink large amounts of water throughout the day, but it's VERY helpful to drink all you can within an hour.
The benefits of doing this is that it helps to flush the liver and kidneys of toxins. The liver works to separate the toxins (waste) from the nutrients. The nutrients are used to nourish your baby and create bone, skin, blood, hair, etc. The waste is meant to be excreted from the body.
When the liver is overloaded it can cause nausea, sluggishness (tired) and much, much more. When the body can't move toxins out quickly enough, the toxins stay in the body too long and cause lots of problems. Constipation means toxins are not being moved out quickly enough.
Drinking as much water as possible in an hour's time will help to move toxins out through the kidneys/urine and can relieve the body of waste which could be contributing to the headache. It will also help to hydrate the bowels making it easier to have a bowel movement.
Medications like Advil are not only hard on the liver, but they can also cause constipation.
It sounds to me like your wife would benefit from a very gentle cleanse. The problem is, we don't want to do a strong cleanse when we're pregnant, because the baby is then exposed to toxins that are moved out of the tissues and into the blood before it is excreted from the body.
However, there are some very gentle cleansing things you can do to start the process. Drinking plenty of pure water every day is going to be super important to keep the bowels moving (no constipation). Your wife could squeeze 1/2 of a fresh lemon into a glass of water every morning and drink that. Many women who experience nausea enjoy the taste of lemon water. I know that it helped me with my nausea during my first pregnancy. I would sit on the couch and sip on lemon water. I'm sure that my body was happy with the affect of the lemon on my liver. I just wish someone had told me about it earlier because the nausea subsided about a month after I started it.
Drinking water throughout the day is really important. To make it easier your wife can place glasses of water around the house or at her desk so that no matter where she is, when she sees the water she will be reminded to drink - pardon me for a moment while I take a sip of my water... okay, I'm back :-)
Chlorophyll is wonderful at helping to take some stress off the liver, for increasing iron levels, and for keeping those bowels moving well. Towards the end of my last 2 pregnancies, I was anemic so my midwife suggested I start taking liquid chlorophyll. It worked both times! Chlorophyll is gentle on the stomach and has so many benefits. You can even make your own by juicing wheat grass or other kinds of grass, or by juicing deep leafy greens like spinach.
Green smoothies are especially tasty and help you to get lots of good chlorophyll as well. In fact I just put a video on your other thread where you asked about alternatives for the iron supplements your doctor prescribed for your wife. Be sure to take a look at that.
And if your wife really needs a pain killer while she's pregnant, you will probably want to take something like Tylenol rather than Advil.
According to a study published in the August 16, 2003 British Medical Journal, women who take ibuprofen (i.e. Motrin, Advil, etc.), Aspirin or Naproxin (Aleve) during pregnancy may have an 80% increased risk of miscarriage.
The study was conducted at Kaiser Permanente in the San Francisco Bay Area and showed that women who took these painkillers around the time of conception experienced miscarriage 35% of the time, a marked increase. And if that news isn't bad enough, most of the women who took the medication for more than a week lost their babies, having an 810% increased risk or 52% of those pregnancies resulted in miscarriage.
It's important for your wife to talk to her midwife or doctor to see what they recommend. And as I understand it, this changes after giving birth, as I've heard that doctors want mums to take Advil after giving birth, and not Tylenol, but again, checking with your health practitioner is best.
Please let me know if you found any of this helpful or have any further questions.
Warm regards,

One more note I wanted to mention about headaches is that they can also be caused by structural issues and seeing a Chiropractor can help.
You can read more about how my son's headaches were relieved by an Osteopath who did structural work here.
Here's a demonstration of what craniosacral therapy looks like on an adult. Everyone in our family has had craniosacral therapy for various things and it is our therapy of choice for reducing pain in all parts of the body.

I absolutely love Aden Anais muslin cotton swaddle blankets. The work great for a breastfeeding cover up, are easily folded and stuffed into a purse or bag.
I have used them for swaddling baby, great for shading the sun, light cover up on a windy day....windshield blocker...park blanket.
They are so versatile for every thing possible.
They also are easy to handwash and dry quickly in the sunshine.
Hope you are able to find a few...they are well worth it!
Do let me know if you get some.
I found them on sale at Target once...

With my first son I got one like this from amazon. I found it very useful at first when breastfeeding was being established. I then found I was using it less and less as I grew in confidence and with my second son I didn't use one at all.
Warm wishes,

Embarrassment for the Dodgers used to be so rare, it was "Nightline" news. Now, they hit an embarrassing new low every week.
The baseball franchise that once epitomized "family" is torn by the owners' bitter divorce. The ballpark touted as "Blue Heaven on Earth" is rocked by the near-fatal beating of a fan on opening day. As attendance plummets, Frank McCourt has to take out a $30 million personal loan to make April payroll.
All of those dark headlines turn out to be mere preludes to what happened Wednesday: Major League Baseball announced it is taking control of the Dodgers' operations and investigating the club's finances.
It's hard to see how things can get any worse. Then again, the season is young.
There was a time when wise guys accused the Dodgers of running the sport, saying team owner Walter O'Malley worked its commissioners like puppets.
Now, in a complete turnaround, Commissioner Bud Selig is putting the Dodgers in the hands of a trustee. Selig says he is acting "to ensure that this club is being operated properly now and will be guided appropriately in the future." He refers ominously to "deep concerns regarding ... finances."
Seven years after Frank and Jamie McCourt bought the club from the Fox Corp. - a husband and wife from Boston talking about restoring the Dodgers' winning ways and eventually handing off the franchise to their four sons - the McCourts have been declared the baseball-management equivalent of unfit parents.
When you think back on the 53 seasons since the Dodgers moved to Los Angeles from Brooklyn, you think of transcendent highs: The move itself, along with the New York-to-San Francisco Giants, bringing the major leagues to the West Coast. Five World Series championships from 1959 to 1988, making them the New York Yankees of the National League in that stretch. Magical stars like Sandy Koufax, Fernando Valenzuela and Kirk Gibson. The Santa Claus figure of Tommy Lasorda. A four-man infield that stuck together for eight years at the start of the era of carpetbagging athletes.
Has there been a point this low?
There was the Al Campanis scandal. Campanis, the general manager who built their powerhouse teams of the 1970s and early '80s, was fired at the start of the 1987 season for remarks denigrating the executive abilities of blacks. He spoke on a "Nightline" TV show about the legacy of Jackie Robinson, who broke the major-league color line 40 years earlier as a member of the Brooklyn Dodgers, in what will always be the proudest of the club's proud moments.
But the Dodgers shook off the Campanis shame, at least on the field of play, winning the World Series the next year.
It's hard to see them bouncing back as quickly from Tuesday's jolt and the slide that led to it. Sports franchises, like fish, rot from the head. It takes dollars - tens of millions of them - to buy a winning roster; the Dodgers, in baseball's second-richest media market, have the 12th-highest player payroll among the 30 teams.
Fred Claire. the former Dodgers executive who succeeded Campanis as GM and won the '88 championship, said he was "shocked" by Wednesday's development.
"It's certainly a very sad chapter in the history of the Dodgers," Claire said. "We're not just talking about any franchise - we're talking about the Dodgers."
It happened to the Montreal Expos, right before the Expos packed up their empty trophy case and moved to Washington, D.C.
In basketball, the New Orleans Hornets - the Lakers' playoff opponents - have been owned by the league since a sale fell through.
Expos, Hornets ... Dodgers. Nice company.
"Obviously the commissioner and his office have great concerns, and they've privy to all of the things that are happening with the club," Claire said.
Claire noted that a franchise is best judged by its fans. On that score, the assessment is fairly scathing these days. Most of the faithful doubted McCourt's financial chops even before this, many are shaken by the opening-day violence at Dodger Stadium, and attendance is down more sharply than can be explained by the Dodgers' 8-10 start.
Spoiled by success, Los Angeles sports fans used to be the nation's biggest optimists, seeing a championship around every corner.
In character, some Dodgers fans will pretend to rejoice at Wednesday's news, hoping this is the beginning of the end of the McCourt era.
Not so fast. This might be the lowest low. That doesn't mean it's the last.

Create beautiful emails
When we created our email tools we were driven by the fact that what was available already was just too difficult to use, or far too limited in capability.
Existing tools were made for people who knew how to add display:blockto an image in order to get it to align correctly in Hotmail. No-one should need to know that just to create an email newsletter.
So we set out to build the best email design tools available, ones that would allow anyone to create a great email without having to care about the technicalities. We think you'll like the results.

Beginning Oct. 1, police can stop any driver they see holding a cellphone in their hand while driving. The law, which was signed Thursday by Gov. Peter Shumlin, requires drivers to use hands-free devices, such as Bluetooth, when talking on their cellphones while driving.
VTDigger videographer Cory Dawson and assignment editor Tom Brown produced this short video to explain what the law will mean to Vermont drivers. Special thanks to Lt. Garry Scott of the Vermont State Police for explaining the new rules.
The law is the same as an existing one that bans the use of hand-held cellphones in work zones. Beginning Oct. 1, drivers can be stopped and fined up to $200 for a first offense. No points are assessed against one's driver's license for a first offense. Steeper fines and points are assessed for subsequent offense within a two-year period.

'"We didn't have the energy they had, and that was obvious. We knew that we were gonna have to play a pretty smart game with the amount of games we've been playing. I think they had four days off, and we knew they'd be a fresher team. It's disappointing to have it 1-1 at almost 50 minutes and make the mistake we made. We didn't get a puck to the net and it turned out to be a breakaway going the other way. What should have been an offensive chance for us turned into the game winner for them."'

Cooperating with Religious Groups & Other Ideological Incompatibles
- Approach
- Gettin' Along
- Sharing Responsibility & Credit
- Dealing with Potential Conflicts
- Regular Collaboration
There are a number of activities on which you'll want to cooperate with religious or other non-aligned groups. It's challenging enough to work with other groups who are generally allied with you; working with "the other side" brings unique problems and misconceptions to the fore. For this reason, consider some ideas for working with religious groups on campus:
- Figure out your purpose in working with them. Is this for service, discussion, understanding, or even just for variety?
- Don't have plans to (de)convert the other side. Don't expect to change lives.
- Try to begin through a personal connection - speak to a friend or friend of a friend in the other group, someone who can vouch for your trustworthiness. You can also approach them in person at an activities fair or other event. Cold emails may work, but are less personable.
- Come at them as an ambassador, with an open mind. Focus on the positive reasons for working together, and let them (honestly) know what your positions are.
- Keep in mind that not all groups are approachable. Don't let this discourage you from others!
- Find common ground on which to collaborate. A sit-down meeting with members of both sides may help foster this. From this discussion, create a list of things to work on together. Along with this, let them know why you're doing this; this will clear the air and get everyone's priorities in line.
- How is as important as why - if you want to have a shocking or combative debate, and they think it will be friendly, that disconnect can lead to confusion and anger later on.
- Your biggest initial challenge will be hesitance from both sides. If things are working, the inter-group dynamic will shift as you work together. Get things moving by attending each other's meetings, as well as arranging pre-event get-togethers at planning meetings and social events.
- There are some activities which make for great collaboration. Generally, these are events which either depend on the contrast between your positions (debates, interfaith discussions), or which focus on your common goals in spite of your differences (service projects, religious tolerance panels, peace protests, actions on religious freedom and separation of church & state).
- One unusual but effective activity is atheist bible study, where people from both sides read and examine bible passages.
- Never mock or make personal judgements about those you disagree with; you can make your points respectfully and dispassionately.
- Try to split tasks and work down the middle, within reason and each group's capabilities (i.e., don't expect a small group to contribute more members or funds than they have).
- On the other hand, there are other situations where responsibilities need to be divided based on other criteria. The group that comes first with the idea may pay more to get a speaker and rent the hall, with the other group working more on promotion and advertising.
- At the event itself, make sure all groups are in the spotlight - after all, that's why they want to cooperate! This can mean sharing a table outside the event, as well as sharing or splitting introductions.
- Be sure to thank people from both groups publicly before major events or speakers.
- A good leader should identify conflict early, and head it off where possible.The best way to avoid conflict is open communication and sharing of knowledge. If you're making a poster or flyer, let them see it and comment on it before printing hundreds of copies.
- If members of the other group are hostile, but realize that you can't do much about them unless their behavior is outright illegal. Rely on their leaders and other members to self-discipline, but be honest if you feel unwelcome or discriminated against.
- Within your own group, there may well be opposition and uncooperativeness. Some of this may be inescapable. Nonetheless, motivate your members by emphasizing the benefits of interaction, such as improved image, or accomplishment of particular goals.
- If someone within your group is disruptive, they don't have to participate. As a leader, don't be reticent to stick up for the "other side" where necessary; this may mean making one of your members to apologize to someone they've offended.
- Keep in mind what your group's priorities and needs are; if collaboration isn't working because of misaligned or conflicting priorities, there may be another group that will work.
- Good interactions lead to good interactions. Don't necessarily go into it with the intention of building coalitions, but small relationships can grow!
- Meet the new leaders of the other group before the year is up, and give them your contact info. Try to maintain relationships with the officers of the other group from year to year.

Davis homers in fifth straight game
Brewers prospect is one short of Southern League record
By Sam Dykstra / Special to MLB.com | July 27, 2012 9:26 PM ET
The Brewers' No. 15 prospect homered in his fifth straight game on Friday night but could not keep Double-A Huntsville from falling at Pensacola, 7-5.
Davis, who's also riding an 11-game hitting streak, doubled and walked twice to go with his solo blast in the fourth inning. He's one game away from tying the Southern League record for most consecutive games with a home run set by Derrek Lee, who homered in six straight for the Memphis Chicks from June 2-8, 1996.
Davis missed time from May 6-June 3 with a pulled calf muscle, only to aggravate the injury in his second game back. He returned for a six-game rehab stint in the Rookie-level Arizona League, but by the time he rejoined the Stars on July 9, he'd missed 56 games.
The 24-year-old outfielder said the calf "feels great."
"I try not to think about my numbers," he added. "I'm just working on getting better and, on a personal level, I'm looking at improving my skills. If I feel like I'm doing that, then I'm happy. Otherwise, I don't have to put up numbers for that to happen necessarily."
Still, Davis' statistics are stellar for someone who missed a good chunk of the season. Through 42 games with Huntsville, he's hitting .355 with a 1.082 OPS. He'd lead the league in both categories if he had the plate appearances to qualify.
Even in that admittedly small sample, the Arizona native's power is more of a recent phenomenon. Before starting the streak in the second game of a doubleheader on July 21, Davis had homered three times in his previous 37 contests. That's not lost on the Cal State-Fullerton product.
"I would describe myself as a good hitter with power, but I wouldn't necessarily say I'm a power hitter," he explained. "I'll put together a run like this every now and again. It just happens, but it's not something I do often."
As for the streak, Davis has a favorite homer. In Tuesday's series opener against Pensacola, he launched a two-run shot to right field off Reds' No. 10 prospect Tony Cingrani.
Davis could take pride in the fact the blast came off one of the Minor Leagues' ERA leaders. Instead, he was happier about the direction the ball traveled.
"I love to hit home runs the opposite way," he said. "It's always a good indicator that my swing is working well and that I'm doing the right things when I'm at the plate."
With a share of the Southern League record on the line Saturday, Davis admitted it'll be on his mind. But he won't be too worried about the outcome.
"Yeah, I think about it," he said. "But every time I step up for an at-bat, I just try to do the little things: Get a good pitch, put a decent swing on it. If it happens to go over the wall, that's great."
Davis also could be joined by three new teammates on Saturday. Infielder Jean Segura and pitchers Johnny Hellweg and Ariel Pena will join the Stars after the Brewers acquired them as part of the trade that sent Zack Greinke to the Angels..
Davis knows Segura from 2010, when the two were teammates at the Midwest All-Star Game.
"He's an amazing player," Davis said. "He's always been a tough out at the plate and he can definitely pick it on the ground, too. ... He'll bring leadership [to the infield]. Anytime the ball is hit his way, he'll make it look routine, no matter how hard it's hit. Adding someone like that is always exciting."

Mines "biggest bargain" in BusinessWeek's return-on-college-investment report
GOLDEN, Colo., July 7, 2010 – In its feature "What's Your College Degree Worth?" Bloomberg BusinessWeek magazine called Colorado School of Mines the "biggest bargain" when examining Payscale.com data regarding the return on investment (ROI) that graduates of U.S. universities realized over the past 30 years of income.
The BusinessWeek feature profiles universities with "below average costs and above average return on investment." According to Payscale.com's methodology, the company calculated the current 30-year median pay for a 2009 bachelor's degree graduate from a specific school by summing up the median pay for graduates of that school between 1980 and 2009.
Mines ranks third for in-state students and fifth for out-of-state students in Payscale.com's "10 best public colleges worth your investment" category. Overall, Mines is the highest ranked university in Colorado at 27th out of 852 universities in the study with a 13.6 percent annual ROI.
Last year, Payscale.com ranked Mines No. 1 in the nation among public institutions for starting salaries of graduates with bachelors's degrees, with a starting median salary of $60,000.

Signs and Symptoms
Symptoms of inherited and endocrine myopathies
Some of the congenital inheritable myopathies cause severe, general muscle weakness that creates problems with basic activities like swallowing and breathing.
Other inheritable myopathies cause episodes of muscle weakness or stiffness that are milder and more localized, and temporary in nature.
Unlike muscular dystrophies, myopathies usually don't cause muscles to die but just keep them from working properly. Also, myopathies are usually nonprogressive — that is, a myopathy usually doesn't grow worse over a person's lifetime. In fact, some children with myopathies gain strength as they grow older.
Finally, some myopathies can give people a listless facial expression, caused by weakness of muscles in the face. Myopathies have no effect on intelligence.
Symptoms of endocrine myopathies include weakness and atrophy (shrinking) of the muscles around the shoulders and hips, muscle stiffness, cramps, slowed reflexes, and in severe cases, muscle breakdown.
For more on the specific signs and symptoms of each type of myopathy, please see the individual disease pages.
Breathing difficulties
Nemaline myopathy and congenital (X-linked) myotubular myopathy may cause weakening of the respiratory muscles (those that control the lungs). This can increase the risk of lung infections.
Heart difficulties
With the exception of Andersen-Tawil syndrome, the myopathies almost never affect heart muscles directly. However, sometimes they can cause indirect damage to the heart.
In nemaline myopathy and congenital myotubular myopathy, an inadequate oxygen supply to the body during severe bouts of respiratory weakness can lead to heart problems.
In one form of periodic paralysis (the hypokalemic form), attacks of weakness are associated with a decrease in blood potassium level, whereas another type of periodic paralysis (the hyperkalemic form) causes an increase. Either change can indirectly cause an irregularity in the rhythmic contraction of the heart.
Andersen-Tawil syndrome, in contrast, can directly damage the heart, since it results from an inherited defect in a potassium channel (see Causes/Inheritance) that is found in both heart and skeletal muscle. People with Andersen-Tawil may have heart rhythm disturbances, even if their blood potassium level is normal.
Malignant hyperthermia
People with myopathies can experience a range of adverse reactions to certain anesthetic drugs used during surgery. Although these drugs sometimes just aggravate the myopathy, they also can produce potentially fatal reactions, such as malignant hyperthermia, which refers to a dangerously high increase in body temperature.
People with central core disease are especially at risk for malignant hyperthermia because the two conditions are sometimes caused by the same ion channel defects (see Causes/Inheritance).
Malignant hyperthermia is triggered by certain inhaled anesthetics (like halothane) and certain muscle relaxants (like succinylcholine). These drugs can intensify ion channel defects and boost muscle metabolism — the set of chemical reactions that provides energy to muscle. The increased metabolism raises body temperature and causes excessive contraction and rhabdomyolysis — a process of acute muscle breakdown. The resulting leakage of ions and muscle proteins into the circulatory system can cause life-threatening damage to the heart, lungs and kidneys.
People with central core disease aren't always susceptible to malignant hyperthermia. Those who are susceptible won't experience malignant hyperthermia unless they're exposed to triggering anesthetics. See Medical Management.

I proposed to my partner in Sumatra and the hotel manager made us a cake and delivered to room. That was a very nice and personal touch. The 24 hour resturant is exceptional overlooking Bandung. Class!
The view of green forest, the luxury of the facilities, and the staffs is very nice. The bed need more cleaning. I found bugs or insects bitten me so my skin is irritated.
I like the design and facilities for the hotel the location is far from the center of Bandung
It has a fascinating view, facing forest.
Padma Hotel is one of the wonderful Places you can stay with luxurious service
Nice, clean model hotel with good location. Very courteous staff. Hope can maintain the cleanliness of the hotel. Value for money.
The breakfast spread. The hip design of the hotel. The view from the hotel. Close proximity to shopping malls/ restaurants. The spa could be more organised, we made a booking for 8 persons the night before. On the day of our spa appt, which we were out for the whole day to the volcano + shopping. When we came back for the spa appt at night, we found out it was cancelled without our knowledge. Hotel staff explained that they couldn't get us to confirm the booking by trying to call our room.. and of cos we were out, who would pick it?!
The fact that it connected to the Ciwalk Mall. The water spills from the shower if you used the bigger rain shower head because it only has half glass cover. No mirror in the room, only in bathroom got mirrors.The Cihampelas Rd that leads to the hotel really crampped up, pretty bad traffic jam especially in the evening, to move 500 meters might take more than half hour! The breakfast area rather big, but they are really particular about charging kids above 4 yrs old even though the kids just had one bite of croissant or 2-3 spoons of cereals, you still have to pay IDR54000. Other hotel like Sheraton & Grand Seriti just waived kids fee, after all how much can they eat!
We have requested for adjoining rooms, but due to unavailability, the hotel staff had upgraded one of our rooms to Deluxe room (with king sized bed) during check-in. And the twin beds in the superior room are super single size which are wide and comfortable. Also love the welcome drink and food for room service, we ordered the Sensa Fried rice and the triple decker sandwich and all tasted good! It is very near to shopping mall, Cihampelas Walk (Ciwalk), just about 150 metres & it is a good mall. Just within walking distance are also lots of shops/factory outlets. Hotel is located on Cihampelas Road which is full of shops/factory outlets so the the road/journey to and fro the hotel is a bit jam, even in the late evenings. And another thing, the flat screen television in the deluxe room should be placed a little lower, say about 1/2 meter or 1 meter lower. Our necks were a little strained to look up to watch the TV.
First entered e hotel,all e staff gives a warmth welcome throughout e stay..Very courteous n would really go on extra mile for e guests..Housekeeping was giving excellent service as when we left e room in a mess,with all our make-ups,shoes n clothes lying all over e place,they indeed clean up e place,make up our room,n stack our items nicely!! Food is nice,Spas treatment is very affordable n city area? Very convenient..TRULY Recommended!! :)
The hotel is new, just started operation early this year. We occupied 2 adjoining superior rooms and I would consider them spacious. Beds(either 1 king or 2 queens)are comfortable and furniture well arranged. The staff are courteous and always put up a smiling face. They are efficient and prompt in attending to customers' needs. On the 1st nite, my adjoining room was locked from inside with the door latch on, within minutes 2 maintenance staff arrived and in less than 15 minutes the door was open.Another area I want to specially mention is the coffee house where we had our breakfast daily.All the waiters/waitresses and the even the F&B Manager were giving us excellent service.I will definitely stay in this hotel again when visiting Bandung. The shower cubicle in the bathroom should have a door installed so that water would not spray into the bathroom floor. Noticed some ants in the room. Since swimming pool is just outsite the coffee house,I noticed some children wearing wet swimming costumes entered the coffee house to take food from the food counters and this should not be encouraged as water may drip onto the food. This may also make the tiled floor slippery and thus cause accident to other guests. Hope management would look into these.
Good place. Nothing
I enjoyed the stay there and the convenience interms of the strategic location. Everywhere is near and the service is good..the staff are very helpful and friendly.
Housekeeping is not consistent. toilet roll is not refilled
delicious food at cafe exspecielly friedrice(seafood) staff at cafe also friendly
very clean and good modern minimalis hotel,good quality and taste of F&B espesially for breakfast,friendly and good staff,and very good location in the heart of the city none
We like the interior of the hotel (hotel lobby, room, restaurant). We enjoyed the swimming pool and fitness facilities. The amenities in bathroom were not so complete. There was no shower cap.
The staffs are very friendly & helpful. Breakfast was ok but could be better. We stayed in the two bedroom and it's cosy. Location is not too bad though we need taxi to get to everywhere. Pasar baru is about 15-20 mins walk from the hotel. The floor gets flooded after a shower. Would be better if the intenet in room is wireless.
The three bedroom apartment was spacious and comfortable and perfect for my family of 5. It is also located very near to Pasar Baru and there's a cinema at Braga City Walk adjoining the hotel at level 2.. Cracks and crevices in bathtub causes water to leak out and wet the bathroom floor.
Facilities for cooking is enough for simple meal and also the sattee that can be turn into bed. In the beginning the service is very good but during the week-end the service is slow.
Space of the apartment First we had a smoking room, we changed it to non smoking
a lot of choices for breakfast
Last time for me in this hotel
Close to restaurants, supermarket, atm machines, highway They need to upgrade their standard of cleanliness in the room and their restaurant. We had to move twice until we found the clean room. Directory of services need to be more informative, we didn't know the hotel has sauna facility.

Penn Game Notes (PDF) / Dartmouth Game Notes (PDF) / Harvard Game Notes (PDF)
The Dartmouth-Harvard Home Weekend
Penn has hosted the Ivy League's Northern New England members in the same weekend 55 times. The Quakers have swept this weekend 43 times, split it 11 times-including each of the last three years-and been swept once (in 2009).
The Dartmouth Series
*The Quakers and the Big Green have met 204 times, with Penn holding a 148-56 series lead.
*Overall, the Quakers have won seven in a row in the series and 30 of the last 32 meetings (the lone exceptions being both games in the 2008-09 season); they have lost to Dartmouth just three times here at The Palestra since 1959 (1984, 1997, 2009).
*Two weeks ago, Penn was down 30-18 at the half and 33-20 early in the second half, but outscored Dartmouth 47-24 the rest of the way for a 67-57 win. Jamal Lewis and Henry Brooks led Penn in scoring with 14 points apiece. For the Big Green, Gabas Maldunas had a double-double (19 points, 10 rebounds) while Alex Mitola scored 14 points.
The Harvard Series
*The Quakers and the Crimson have met 163 times, with Penn holding a 128-35 series lead.
*In contrast to Dartmouth's lack of success at The Palestra, Harvard has walked out of here with a win each of the last four years; since the start of Ivy League play in the 1950s, no other program has had such a run of success against Penn in this building (not even Princeton).
*Two weeks ago, Harvard jumped out early and never looked back in taking a 73-54 decision in Boston. Wesley Saunders had 23 points to lead the Crimson, while Kenyatta Smith nearly had a triple-double with 20 points, nine rebounds and 10 blocked shots. For Penn, Darien Nelson-Henry had 14 points while Cameron Gunter recorded 10 points and a career-high nine rebounds.
It Could Happen...
If Harvard defeats Princeton at Jadwin Gym on Friday night...
*A Harvard win at Penn OR a Princeton loss to Dartmouth on Saturday would give the Crimson a share of the Ivy League title, as they will be two up on the Tigers in the standings with two games to play.
*If Harvard wins AND Princeton loses on Saturday, then the title (and the league's automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament) is the Crimson's.
Ivy Honors For Hicks
Freshman Tony Hicks was named Ivy League Rookie of the Week on Monday, becoming the third different Penn player to earn the honor this sseason (after Jamal Lewis and Darien Nelson-Henry). Hicks was simply outstanding on Penn's road trip to Cornell and Columbia. On Friday night in Ithaca, he scored 29 points -- the most by a Penn freshman in a game since March 7, 1992, when current head coach Jerome Allen was playing for the Quakers and dropped 31 on Cornell. Hicks scored Penn's first eight points in the game and 15 of its first 17, and in the second half he had a personal nine-point run that turned a four-point Penn deficit into a five-point lead. On Saturday night, Hicks not only led all scorers in Penn's game with Columbia, he scored almost half of the Quakers' point in the game (19 of their 41).
The Latest to 1,000
Junior guard Miles Cartwright scored 15 points at Cornell last Friday, and in the process he moved past the 1,000-point mark for his career. He is the 38th player in Penn history to reach the milestone, and the first since Tyler Bernardini did it during the 2010-11 season.
One More Thing About Youth...
Yeah, yeah, we've harped on it all year, but we swear this one is cool. The Penn men's basketball team has not started a senior this season; coincidentally, neither has the Penn women's basketball team. In an informal survey of the other NCAA Division I SID's, it was discovered that only three other schools share this distinction. One of them is the Quakers' Friday opponent, Dartmouth; the other two are Navy (Patriot League) and Wright State (Horizon League).
Other Things Worth Noting...
*Penn has had nine different players lead it in scoring in a game this season, and eight different players have led the team in rebounding in a game.
*Eleven different players have had a double-figure scoring game for Penn this season.
*Penn is 6-0 in the Jerome Allen era when holding an opponent below 50 points, and 23-6 when holding its opponent below 60.
*Penn has had more assists than turnovers five times in the last 10 games, after accomplishing that feat just twice in the first 16 contests.
*Penn has outrebounded its opponent in three straight games, four of the last five and eight of the last 14 contests, after doing it just twice in the first 12 contests this season.
*Five of Penn's last eight opponents have shot below 36 percent from the field; the Quakers lead the Ivy League in conference field-goal percentage (39.6 percent).
*Freshman Tony Hicks had hit 16 free throws in a row dating back to Columbia on February 1, before he missed two of his five attempts last Saturday at Columbia.
*Freshman Jamal Lewis scored 14 points the last time Penn played Dartmouth, matching his point output from the last 11 games combined; he hit his first three-pointer since January 2 (at Butler) and made three free throws, one less than he had made for the entire season to that point.
*Freshman Darien Nelson-Henry has scored at least eight points in 10 of Penn's last 13 games, with eight double-figure scoring performances during that period.
*Nelson-Henry also has averaged 6.2 rebounds per game the last 10 contests, after averaging 2.5 rpg in his first 14 appearances; he had nine rebounds in both games last weekend, at Cornell and Columbia.
*Junior Dau Jok entered this season with nine career points and seven rebounds; he entered the January 5 game at La Salle with 37 career points and 29 career boards; in the last 14 games, he has scored 61 points and snared 38 rebounds.
*Junior Cameron Gunter entered the Harvard/Dartmouth road trip two weeks ago with 10 points and 10 rebounds for the season; he then recorded a combined 13 points and 12 boards against Harvard (10, 9) and Dartmouth (3, 3).
*Gunter made three free throws at Dartmouth; amazingly, they were his first made free throws in almost exactly a year, as the last time he made one was Feb. 17, 2012 against Cornell.

I was in a gym the other day.. not Titan...
and this uber chav came in while i was sat talking to someone.. and there was a copy of the Sun on the desk, he then goes to one of the trainers, in a droany, mono tone, I smoke too much crack voice "uh huhuhu, my cousin was the one who bashed him up, uhuhuhuhuh" the guy he was speaking to, bless him. was a little bit awkward and replied with a simple, "oh right"
he Chav then decides to tell us all what happened, "yeah, he was getting well lairy coz my cousin was chatting to jordan, and he came over and said to go away, and my cousin wasnt doin anythin wrong, he was just chattin to here you know, so he tell that Alex to fuck off right, and Alex goes to for him, but he moves and bangs him in the eye, and drops him, then all his mates come over and they all get in a fight uhuhuhuhuhuh"
A particular fighter was stood by when this happened, and said, "why dont people just fucking leave him alone?" and the chav replys "coz he thinks he is well ard init"
and I was left amazed, by the blatent fucking lie this prick said... it wasnt, oh someone I know heard, or, did you hear what was suppose to have really happened.. no, his cousin, his cousin was the guy who suppose to have dropped Alex..
So I say, "dude, from what I hear from many people at the show, Alex was long gone before the fight, and no one even got close to him to even hit him, and as far as im aware, if it was your cousin who was fighting and his mates, they all got a kicking and left in the street for the police, not only that, not 1 news report says Alex actually got hit, they bent the truth a little with what happend, but not 1 paper sad he got hit, nor has anyone at the show said it.. maybe your cousin got in a fight with someone else"
he then spent 5 mins trying to promise me he did and I had to go.. I couldnt handle it

Gram-negative meningitis is a bacterial infection of the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord (meninges). The bacteria turn pink when exposed to a special stain (Gram-negative bacteria).
Gram-negative meningitis
Acute bacterial meningitis can be caused by Gram-negative bacteria.
Meningococcal and H. influenzae meningitis are caused by Gram-negative bacteria and are covered in detail in other articles. This article covers Gram-negative meningitis caused by the following bacteria:
Gram-negative meningitis is more common in infants than adults. But it is also important in adults, especially those with one or more risk factors. Risk factors in adults and children include:
Other symptoms that can occur with this disease:
The doctor or nurse will examine you. This will usually show:
If the health care provider thinks you may have meningitis, a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) should be done to remove a sample of spinal fluid (cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF) for testing.
Other tests that may be done include:
This list is not all-inclusive.
Antibiotics should be started as soon as possible. Ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, and cefepime are the most commonly used antibiotics for this type of meningitis. Other antibiotics may be used, depending on the type of bacteria.
If you have a spinal shunt, it may be removed.
The earlier treatment is started, the better the outcome.
Many people recover completely, but a large number of people have permanent brain damage or die from this type of meningitis. Young children and adults over age 50 have the highest risk of death. How well you do depends on:
Call the local emergency number (such as 911) or go to an emergency room if you suspect meningitis in a young child who has the following symptoms:
Call the local emergency number if you develop any of the serious symptoms listed above. Meningitis can quickly become a life-threatening illness.
Prompt treatment of related infections may reduce the risk of meningitis.

Lily Allen announces 'Sheezus' album, a 'homage' to Kanye West's 'Yeezus'
Listen to Lilly Allen on iHeartRadio | Listen to Kanye West on iHeartRadio
Lily Allen is calling her next album Sheezus.
The title was inspired by Kanye West's latest offering, Yeezus.
Allen, no stranger to mocking the music industry, revealed the news during an interview on the U.K.'s "The Graham Norton Show."
"It's a confident title choice – and a little nod to Kanye West," she told Norton.
On Twitter, she added:
