Shahrukh Khan asks the media to talk to serious people if they want quotes on serious issues
"To be honest, I have stopped commenting on anything religious or political from now on. But generally if you ask me, I do stand for freedom of expression." He added, "I`m an actor. You speak to me about my films. You want to speak about serious issues, you get some serious people – not actor and actresses."

Add polls to wiki pages
The PollMacro lets poll questions be added to Trac pages.
The usage is very basic, arguments are separated by semi-colons, with the first argument being the question and the remainding arguments the choices:
[[Poll(What do you think of the Poll macro?; Cool; Crap)]]
The macro stores the results of the poll, in a pickled form, in /var/state/trac/polls
(this is set in the polldir
variable at the top of the macro source). The 32-bit CRC of the poll name is used as the filename, and is stored under a directory with a name that is the 32-bit CRC of the project name.
Each voters name is displayed to the right of their choice.
PollMacro works for Trac 0.8+ when placed in the same directory as Trac.py

"The Walking Dead" is going well for AMC; the finale drawing in a record 9 million viewers. So it makes sense that the network's decided to double-down with the comic book's co-creator and writer Robert Kirkman.
They've announced they're developing a new series based off of "Thief of Thieves," a series Kirkman created with Image Comics about a master thief trying to reconcile with his estranged ex-wife and child and get his life back together. He tries to deal with his addiction to thievery by only stealing things that have already been stolen. From the press release:
"Much like 'The Walking Dead' brought horror to television in a unique and groundbreaking way, I feel 'Thief of Thieves' can do the same thing for heist stories, showing the humanity of all the characters, including the criminals," explains Kirkman, who created "The Walking Dead" comic in 2003 and still writes each issue, among many other titles.
"AMC recognizes the limitless ideas generated by the comic industry," says Kirkman. "Their dedication to bringing 'The Walking Dead' to life as a TV show has been key to its success and I'm excited about the potential of 'Thief of Thieves' to reach similar levels of success."
While "Mad Men" and "Breaking Bad" continue to be AMC's prestige shows, the network's had more success ratings-wise with genre efforts "The Walking Dead" and "Hell on Wheels." While news that they're also developing a period football drama indicates they're still investing in potentially awardsy dramas, series like Kirkman's, with more commercial potential, are still a part of the network's priorities.

'Nom de plume' tree advocate questioned
Editor: I openly advocate under my real identity for private property rights and freedoms, in this case to own and have control of our trees, part of our rural acreage land that we live and pay taxes on.
Who is the elusive Anna R? She appears before council as a delegate with her video presentations, without revealing her name and address as everyone else must do.
If you are a sincere advocate, you should have the courage to identify yourself rather than hiding behind a nom de plume. This raises questions and suspicions. Is she an imported and paid protest campaigner?
Anti-progress advocate Ann-Michelle DeReus of urban Brookswood claims to be Anna R's friend, defends her points and covers for her identity. Sorry, but this doesn't cut it.
Councillor Bob Long said the images of a logging truck and a bird's nest (from a different area) was convincing enough to flip-flop and vote against private property rights. So now we have a repressive bylaw with government-seized trees based on an elusive Power Point presenter who won't give her full name and address.
I doubt that Long would overreact to PETA images of cows being slaughtered, and limit the number of steaks Bob's Bar N' Grill can serve. I doubt that Councillor David Davis (Davistead Farms) would consent and vote to reduce his milk quota, based on some negative images of mad cow disease, but they have no problem limiting the number of trees we can selectively reduce.
To add insult to confiscation, we now have neighbour pitted against neighbour with a Tree-Cutting Hotline so we can rat each other out every time a chainsaw cuts some firewood. Like we need more tax-wasting heavy-handed bureaucracy. This is the true spirit and harmony of rural Langley, promoted by Councillors Kim Richter and Michelle Sparrow.

2014 Barbera Italy
For centuries now, the beautiful red grapes of the Barbera varietal have been grown in Italy, where they are prized for their unusual high acid content and low tannins, brought about by their thin skins. The Barbera grape varietal thrives in warmer climates, and has had some success overseas in the new world, where its strongly aromatic flavors of intense hedgerow fruits make it a favorite with wineries and wine drinkers looking for a grape which offers plenty of interesting characteristics. Interestingly, the differences between young and aged wines made from this varietal are quite significant, with younger bottles holding a plethora of berry flavors, including blueberry and raspberry notes, and oak aged wines made from the Barbera grape being much loved for their ability to become extremely complex and spicy, and picking up vanilla flavors from the wood they are barreled in.
There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Why Dating Bigger Men is Better
Size does matter
-Emily Porter
I never thought I'd date a "fat" guy. As an athlete (I swim several times a week), I used to only be attracted to svelte, trim men. I was so focused on finding a guy who worshiped his own body that I neglected to look for a guy who worshiped me.
So imagine my surprise when I began dating a chubby, cuddly guy. He didn't compete in triathlons, he never counted calories, he rarely wore fitted clothes. At first I grew nervous that we wouldn't work together. I worried that everywhere we went, people would judge us for being an inter-weight-cial couple.
But after a few weeks, my fears melted away. Instead of staring at his plump tummy, all I could see was how much he cared for me. Despite my initial prejudice against hefty hunks, I realized he pretty much rocked my world. Sometimes bigger is definitely better.
I'm not the only one jumping aboard the junk-in-the-trunk bandwagon.
The New York Times reports that several leading men have packed on pounds as of late. Russell Crowe, Jeff Daniels, John Travolta, Denzel Washington and Hugh Grant have all recently made full-figured film appearances. And Fox is planning a dating reality show called More to Love, which will feature overweight contestants.
Here are four reasons why dating a "Big & Tall" boy will give you the most bang for your buck.
1. He'll never criticize your weight or your food portions. If you want that extra slice of pizza or that extra scoop of ice cream, he's not going to raise an eyebrow.
2. You know how women's magazines always claim that men prefer women with a little meat on their bones, because their bodies feel better to the touch? Turns out the reverse is also true. Heavier men are softer and more squeezable than skinny studs.
3. His belly = your own personal, portable pillow.
4. Weighty guys enjoy life more than thin men. They never stress about diets or workouts – they instead spend their time tasting the pleasures of life. Like you!
How about you Bettys: Have you ever dated an overweight guy? Is bigger really better? Or are heavy men a turn-off?
Send us a photo of your big guy and we'll include it in our Bigger is Better roundup! E-mail it to firstname.lastname@example.com along with your name and your guy's name.

How many idols does it take to change a lightbulb? Er, I mean can fit in a Running Man episode? Apparently 7. It's the 2012 Running Man Olympics where Team Running Man will face off Team Idol. Who will grab the gold and attain the highest honor?
Note: Because of the actual Olympics, Episode 105 will not air today.
EPISODE 104. Broadcast on July 22, 2012.
We open at the 2012 Running Man Olympics as our MC, Jung Jae-hyung mans the stations and switches between three languages (Korean, English, and French), giving a little giggle in between each.
He introduces the cast who enter waving their Running Man flags with pride and then he offers Kwang-soo a redo… so that he can play St. Agnes and the Burning Train, Kwang-soo's theme song, on the piano. HAHAHA. Kwang-soo: "I never knew this song was this sad!"
Erm, Jae-hyung – just because you were able to eliminate Kwang-soo shouldn't make you that confident about taking on Jong-kook. Suk-jin: "You have to go through me first."
Time to introduce Team Idol and the cast throw in the towel at the first three: Eun-hyuk (Super Junior), Nichkhun (2PM), and Jung Yong-hwa (CNBLUE).
Then we have our next group with Lee Joon (MBLAQ) who bounces in without introduction, Yoon Doo-joon (B2ST), Im Shi-wan(ZE:A), and last but not least the lady Eunjung (T-ARA). Phew, that was a lot.
HA – is Jae-hyung going to keep up his multinational MC act and speak in French for everything? Apparently so.
The Olympic torch bearer, Maknae FD dashes in and at Jae-hyung's order he runs faster. Hey, isn't that the same get-up you wore a few weeks ago?
Maknae FD draws a bow and arrow to light the Olympic flame and it flickers on as he coolly releases it. But before you think that was impressive, we're shown another cut of the arrow which veers completely off course and then he grabs the fire extinguisher to put it out. HAHA.
Team Running Man is none too pleased to hear that they'll be competing against Team Idol today. Winning the three mission beforehand will give them an advantage in the final mission. The prize? A real gold medal.
Everyone gapes, then Eun-hyuk cuts in, his eye on the prize: "We just need to win 'em all right?"
A game of rock-paper-scissors (Suk-jin wins) determines where they'll sit on the double-decker bus. And they're off!
First order of business for Team Idol is to figure out the age hierarchy between them. Turns out that Yong-hwa and Doo-joon are the maknaes (as '89ers) and Eun-hyuk comments that it doesn't suit them. Yong-hwa: "I even got a perm to make myself look younger!"
Eun-hyuk's oldest (1986) and they burst laughing that Suk-jin is 20 years older (at 1966) and in pure astonishment, Lee Joon gasps, "My mom was born in 1961!" Totally not getting that the bluster could have embarrassed Mom, he tells Yong-hwa that it's HIS mom so there's no problem that he said it with HIS OWN lips. Pfftt.
Lee Joon starts stumbling over his words and at the others' accusation that he's a spy, he dismisses, "I'm not made to be a spy!" Well if you put it that way…
The first mission is a relay race and given the course, the anchor has it especially tough. Mr. PD warns them of the harsh corners and Jae-suk complains that it's the STAFF who are particularly harsh.
Eun-hyuk's overwhelming desire to win throws Jae-suk for another loop. He compliments Yooruce Willis that he's the fastest and Jae-suk reminds him that's only amongst the Running Man cast. It's Suk-jin he worries about.
Cut to Suk-jin who sighs that he should've been paired with Eunjung instead of Doo-joon. Then Kwang-soo pleads with Yong-hwa not to humiliate him too much 'cause they're like family now.
We cut back to the start where Haha and Nichkhun anxiously wait for the gun to fire. They burst from the start as Nichkhun pulls ahead at the first stop. And then Jong-kook is quick to close that gap between him and Shi-wan. Damn, I'm impressed.
Gary uses that advantage to speed along ahead of Joon and then the ladies race ahead. You don't call her the Ace for nuthin' as she puts a large distance between her and Eunjung. Now if only Suk-jin can use this advantage…
Of course he doesn't because Doo-joon zooms past and despite giving a small advantage to Kwang-soo, Yong-hwa speeds ahead as Kwang-soo cries out, "That's not what we agreed on!"
Now it's the final leg of the race as both anchors start running but then Eun-hyuk starts to pull ahead and puts enough space in between them to win it.
Ji-hyo is absolutely fuming afterwards and when you think she's going for Jae-suk, she marches in and grabs Myuk PD for saying her weight on film.
The cast get an earful about their loss from Coach Jong-kook. On the bus, Jae-suk finally bursts at him… and then apologizes immediately afterwards.
Their second mission is a trampoline volleyball court where hordes of fans circle the set.
Woah looks like those years of ballet training sure came in handy, Lee Joon. The boy looks completely in his element, jumping into splits in the air with effortless grace. Too bad that doesn't quite translate into volleyball, giving the Running Man a 2:0 lead.
His equivalent can be pointed to Suk-jin and with his help, Team Idol gains the lead. That's further cemented by black hole Kwang-soo who misses the ball time after time again.
Was that a layup Kwang-soo? Even his fans who root for him on the top of their lungs grow silent.
Serve after serve they go and finally Jae-suk calls for a time-out with the score 5:11 in favor of Team Idol. Post break fares much better for Team Running Man as Kwang-soo even scores a couple of points for his team with an impressive save.
Soon the score's 12:13 and thanks to Doo-joon's missed spike, it ties the score at 13:13. Then each team flubs at they're tied again at 14:14. Team Running Man is way more coordinated in this second half and then Kwang-soo strikes with his third impressive move by lightly sending the ball over the net.
Lee Joon jumps around the court when the ball comes straight at him mid-air. He flubs, tapping the ball before letting it fall and Team Running Man win the second round.
At their third event, the teams will need to toss a teammate over a number of hurdles in a pool in order to win. The ladies are up first and Coach Kookie gathers his team to have Ji-hyo climb over Kwang-soo's shoulders.
Team Idol is a quick study and pick up on the strategy. And though Ji-hyo stays mostly dry as they practice, Eun-jung nearly goes headfirst into the water.
Despite the practice, Team Running Man slips behind Team Idol as they toss Eun-jung over the first hurdle. Poor Ji-hyo has trouble gaining a foothold on Kwang-soo's shoulders as Team Idol marches on.
Team Running Man finally catch up to Team Idol at the third hurdle and both women pass the final hurdle nearly at the same time. It's a race to to the finish line as the men help the ladies along to grab that flag… and Ji-hyo wins the first round out of three.
The staff raise the height for Round 2 and it's Kwang-soo vs. Shi-wan. Unfortunately Kwang-soo's height works to his disadvantage and Team Running Man struggles at the first hurdle as Shi-wan effortlessly dives into the water and approaches their final hurdle.
HAHAHA – Jong-kook's really the only one who can support Kwang-soo on his shoulders but Kwang-soo can't get a footing and sends both of them into the water. Over and over again while Team Idol oh-so-casually grabs the flag.
It's Jae-suk vs. Eun-hyuk again in the final round and Jae-suk's the first to fly over the hurdle. Both teams seem to speed up sending their teammates flipping over their hurdles.
Okay, what is WITH that final hurdle Mr. PD? It comes up to the men's chests and as expected, both men fail on their first try. And surprisingly, it's Jae-suk who gets pushed off and flies over the hurdle and runs in the water to grab the flag, cinching Team Running Man's victory.
We're at the final mission location where the game is Hide-and-Seek switchoff where each team's roles will change every 15 minutes between a hider and a seeker. The team who remains to the ends, wins.
Team Running Man puts it to a vote and they choose to be the seekers first. Giving Team Idol a three minute head start, they dangle the bells off of their sneakers, warning them to be aware of this terrifying noise.
The Team Idol members hurry to secure a hiding place in the vast museum but they can't ignore their growing nervousness and rapid heartbeat.
Jae-suk comments that their uniforms almost make it seem like ripping name tags could be an Olympic sport and then Kwang-soo adds in that this kind of team unity is what the audience has been dying to see. Said the poster boy of betrayal.
They give a team cheer and they're sent off to chase after the other team. Aw, it is nice to see them working together in Hide-and-Seek for once!
Yes, Team Idol – you have every reason to be scared because these guys OWN this game. They've done this Hide-and-Seek game for over 2 years.
What the heck? A couple minutes in and Jong-kook comments that he saw a shadow move in the distance. That shadow is Shi-wan who keeps his distance from the Running Man cast and takes refuge behind a not-so-secret barrier.
So who should find him but Jae-suk and Shi-wan, flustered, contemplates for a moment before making a run for it. Little does he know that Jae-suk is chasing him right into Gary's open arms.
With a long reach, Gary grabs the back of Shi-wan's shirt and while he holds Shi-wan in his arms, Shi-wan pleads: "There's nowhere to hide here! When I saw the show there would be plenty of places to hide! What am I going to do in jail all alone?!" There, there… you're still eliminated.
Oho – it looks like we have a brain on our hands as Nichkhun sets up a perfect hiding spot behind a stairwell. Meanwhile Doo-joon and Yong-hwa sweat as they hear the bells ring.
Ace Ji-hyo spots Yong-hwa who zips down the hallways to evade his captors. He's speedy but not speedy enough as Jong-kook catches him and quickly eliminates him. Team Idol is down to 5 members now.
Everyone pauses as they change the tags off of their hats and either secure or untie their bells. Team Idol's fearful faces quickly turn into ones of determination. Team Idol smirks as the clock counts down, 5…4…3…2..1… Time to run Running Man.
Now that the tables have turned, Lee Joon eyes Jae-suk, chasing him in and out of the auditorium. It feels like less than a minute has passed before he rips off Jae-suk's name tag and then runs to help Doo-joon. Woah, he is ruthless.
Kwang-soo manages to slip away a few feet, still held back by Lee Joon when we hear a rip… and Kwang-soo has ripped off his own name tag in the struggle. Aww. 5:5 it is.
Lee Joon, honey – I think you're on an adrenaline high. He slips into an empty box for cover and even pokes a hole so he can see. He scurries along the wall to look for his prey, starting and stopping. Right around the corner, Nichkhun has this weird, "What the hell? I hear bells somewhere…" expression on his face.
Nichkhun helps him back into the box after his initial surprise and I'm wondering how this is a good idea? If anything, it sure is adorable and hilarious. Caption reads: It'll be hot in there…
Haha's cornered by Doo-joon and Nichkhun who agree to temporarily let him off creating an alliance of Ha-bi-two (Haha, B2ST, 2PM). But you know as well as I do that alliances never last for long and as Haha points to where his teammates are hiding, Doo-joon and Nichkhun send secret signals to each other.
Haha catches on and gets running but Doo-joon tracks him down within seconds and then nonchalantly tears off Haha's nametag.
Another switch is called and now it's Team Running Man's turn to do the seeking again. Out of the box now, Lee Joon runs outside and then runs in the opposite direction as Gary chases his tail.
As Gary rounds the corner, we hear another blood-curling scream and see Lee Joon's face of terror as he runs right into Jong-kook's arms. AHAHA. Needless to say he's quickly eliminated.
The three remaining idol boys step outside to take a break but they're soon joined by a chorus of bells and make a run for it. They run right into Suk-jin's path but that's no big because they all manage to slip past him and they all split.
Unfortunately for Doo-joon, he runs into a dead end and is eliminated. A little later inside, Eun-jung appears. Suk-jin can't bring himself to take her out and so Ji-hyo steps in to eliminate Eun-jung out of the game with a little hug.
Now the count is Team Running Man 4: 2 Team Idol members.
Nichkhun is up on the rooftop as he whispers that he's totally confident to remain hidden. Then he spies Jong-kook walking up the stairs and he runs, all the while, the clock ticking down the last few seconds before another switch.
At the switch, he's a few feet away from Suk-jin, who's already scared for what's to come. Suk-jin freaks out when he sees Nichkhun in a track start position, ready to make his move.
The siren blares and Nichkhun runs… upstairs? Well, looks like the boy's got bigger fish to fry as he runs towards Jong-kook instead. Surprised, he asks, "Hyung, why aren't you running away?" Jong-kook: "It's just you…"
Remember what happened a year ago? Nichkhun is no scrawny idol and Jong-kook is legitimately flustered as he hears a part of his name tag rip. They're soon joined by the sound of bells… and Eun-hyuk rushes to Nichkhun's aid.
Working together, they pin Jong-kook to the ground and overtake him. Jong-kook is eliminated and Eun-hyuk celebrates with glee.
Tee-hee. Eun-hyuk acts totally cool when he discovers Suk-jin in a closet as the latter plays it off with the same manner. But it's no use and soon the speakers announce his elimination. Only two remain on each team.
Gary has taken to Lee Joon's earlier strategy to hide inside the box as the idol boys rack their brains trying to find the ex-Monday Couple. Nichkhun approaches the box that Gary is hiding inside of and gives it a little shake… before he walks away.
Too bad he doesn't investigate any further because the siren sounds again and Gary breathes a sigh of relief. Nichkhun is clearly impressed and readies himself to run. The next round starts and Nichkhun manages to slip out of Ji-hyo's and Gary's grasp.
The jailed munch on ice cream and Haha mentions that Jae-suk bought IU a car to the bewilderment of the idols. They jump on this train and Yong-hwa mentions that his group needs a new fridge…
Jae-suk starts, "Well, okay…" and the boys jump up, chanting his name. Soon Lee Joon's like, "Our house has been without an air conditioner for 10 years…" Okay!
Then Shi-wan: "Our group has 9 members and our place is kinda small." Kwang-soo: "A house?" Add that to the list! Then Jae-suk turns to Kwang-soo that he needs to borrow some money to pay for everything.
Back to the action with two minutes left to seek for Team Running Man. Ji-hyo tells Gary that there's no time to waste and Gary manages to tear off Eun-hyuk's name tag.
With left than 30 seconds to spare, they only need to take out Nichkhun. They've literally got their hands on his name tag when the speakers blare and they all freeze. They initially think it's the call for another switch but it's just for Eun-hyuk's elimination.
Nichkhun uses the momentary distraction to his advantage and the ex-Monday Couple have got him cornered… when the siren sounds again. Drat, so close.
At the start of the switch, Ji-hyo throws herself in between the two men and she tells Gary to run. Nichkhun rips off her name tag with ease and starts to chase Gary, who's got one shoe on.
He's surprisingly still pretty quick but Nichkhun's still on Gary's tail as they run through the museum and Nichkhun reaches for Gary's name tag…
We fade to black and then both men appear in jail, having agreed to be eliminated in everyone's company.
Nichkhun tears off Gary's name tag, securing the victory for Team Idol. Team Running Man present the victors with a shiny gold medal, thus ending the 2012 Running Man Olympics.

Nothing like Christmas in July! It was fun to create with the new Fancy Pants Saint Nick line a couple of weeks ago.
I created a couple of layouts with this new line. The first layout is a collage of a few of my favorite photos crom Christmas last year.
The embellishment cards and design embellishments are printed on kraft colored paper. I love the vintage look of the kraft paper.
As soon as I saw the Naughty and Nice paper I knew that it would be perfect for a page with photos of my kids and Santa.
The new filter embellishments have patterns printed on them and I used one of each of the designs on this layout.
You can check out more Saint Nick creations on the Fancy Pants blog. Thanks for stopping by today!

Scarborough reportedly accused Hannity of "reading off" RNC talking points "for the past four years"
Research ››› ››› JEREMY CLUCHEY
MSNBC host and former U.S. Representative Joe Scarborough accused FOX News Channel host Sean Hannity of "reading off the Republican National Committee's talking points ... for the past four years," according to the November 17 edition of The Washington Post. In an article on the "mixed blessing" for right-wing radio and television hosts of the Election Day "triumph for conservatism," Post staff writer Paul Farhi quoted Scarborough as saying: "I honestly don't know what Sean Hannity is going to be able to talk about. If you've been reading off the Republican National Committee's talking points like he has for the past four years, it's going to be hard to be critical of the status quo."
On the same day that the Post article was published, Scarborough claimed that he was misquoted. In an email to mediabistro.com's TVNewser weblog, which posted Scarborough's purported quote in the Post, Scarborough asserted that "I would not tell a reporter that 'Sean Hannity has been reading off of RNC talking points for the past four years' even if I were on heroin."
Though Scarborough and Hannity have both previously denied using Republican talking points, and Scarborough now denies that he accused Hannity of using them, Media Matters for America has documented numerous instances of both conservative hosts echoing GOP talking points.
Joe Scarborough: "I just don't read the Republican talking points. I just tell the truth." [MSNBC, Hardball with Chris Matthews, 9/9/04]
- Scarborough said, "I just don't read the Republican talking points. I just tell the truth" -- then used a Republican talking point
- Not to be outdone, Scarborough called Edwards second most liberal member of the Senate
- Right-wing chorus echoed Bush-Cheney '04: McCain was Kerry's "first choice"
- Scarborough: "Ralph Reed, as always, is right"
Sean Hannity: "I don't have any party talking points." [FOX News Channel, Hannity & Colmes, 7/7/04]
- Conservatives repeated Bush administration's misleading comparison between explosives, other munitions
- Conservative hosts echoed RNC claim that Kerry blamed troops for missing explosives
- Hannity delivers three more RNC-inspired Kerry distortions
- Hannity echoed GOP claim that Kerry is "out of the mainstream"; facts show otherwise
- Hannity: Kerry "chose the number-four liberal in the Senate" for VP; "Is that why there's no Edwards bounce in the polls?"
- Hannity echoed GOP talking points; denied he has "any party talking points"
As MMFA has also noted, Scarborough appeared on stage behind President George W. Bush at an August 10 campaign rally in Pensacola, Florida, and applauded Bush's remarks.

So, I'm a big ME fan, but I avoided playing this at release due to the crazy backlash around the ending. That said, is it still worth playing?
I know what happens, and meh, but I'd like a good answer on this that isn't "rah rah I hate EA" (which is all I seem to find).
(Note: I know I'm opening Pandora's box...)

A ruling by Pakistan's Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) dismissing DNA as primary evidence in rape cases has received much flak from activists in the country. The ruling has its fair share of supporters though, with some happy that there is a legitimate institution pondering religious issues in Pakistan.
The Council does not have any legislative power in the country, it is an advisory body for the Pakistani government and the Parliament on all legal matters related to Islam. Rape is currently tried under civil law in Pakistan which allows for DNA evidence. Following the ruling, the Sindh assembly unanimously passed a resolution on June 11, 2013 making DNA tests mandatory in all rape cases in the province.
The controversial edict [ur] made public on the council's website, stipulates that Islam has given clear instructions on how to judge and punish rapists, by relying solely on testimony from four witnesses and that DNA could be only used to supplement that primary testimony.
The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP), a leading rights organization in the country called the council's pronouncement 'regressive, exceptionally insensitive and unkind to rape victims' on its own website:
Poor investigation methods and reluctance of witnesses to come forward out of fear mean that the balance is titled in the favour of the rapist as it is. In these circumstances, it would be foolish to not depend on all the evidence that is available, especially something as incontrovertible as DNA test results.
In Pakistan, rape used to be tried under Islamic Sharia or the controversial Hudood laws, which in practice equated the crime of adultery with rape – if a rape victim could not provide four male eyewitnesses to the crime, she could be charged with adultery. In fact, according to Pakistan's National Commission on Status of Women "80% of women" in jail in 2003 were there as because "they had failed to prove rape charges and were consequently convicted of adultery."
But in 2006, the Women's Protection Bill was passed which amended the Hudood laws, bringing rape cases under civil law, which allows for forensic evidence.
Ayesha Tammy Haq (@tammyhaq), a journalist in Pakistan, posted a sarcastic remark on her Twitter account:
@tammyhaq: (Ayesha Tammy Haq) Padded bras are the devils cushions say Pakistan's #CouncilofIslamicIdeology good thing they don't have more important issues to deal with?
Conversely, Umair Rasheed (@umairrasheed1) tweeted:
@Umairrasheed1 (Umair Rasheed): Mullahs convene #Alam-e-IslamConference in #Peshawar. Say they'll start movement to implement #CouncilofIslamicIdeology proposals
Blogger Asif Zaidi wrote on the blog 'Let Us Build Pakistan':
..no amount of evidence in the world can negate the possibility that a woman may be lying in claiming herself to be a rape victim. Hence certain fastidiousness must be summoned to impede justice's way to doubtful decisions against innocent men.
Muhammad Ilyas Haidri commenting on an article at Dawn.com said:
…the CII reservations are justified for not accepting the D N A results out rightly … It is correct that the results of un certified laboratories like Pakistanis and many others in third word, where bribe,fraud ,tempering the results ,and poor judicial system is practiced must not be relied upon…
Rana Gulabi on the same website said :
There is a scientific reasoning behind this because DNA can be extracted from common daily use items such as combs, clothes, etc. with the help of commonly available laboratory equipment and then could be planted anywhere to mislead the medical staff doing the medical report. A woman who wants to seek revenge from an ex-husband could do this to ruin a man's life.
Highlighting the fact that the CII has over two-dozen male clerics, HWG put forward a unique angle in the comments:
The CII should have independently thinking women members to start with. How can a body that entirely consists of male members take decisions affecting women even without listening to their representatives?
Blogger Tazeen Javed quoted a famous Islamic scholar Mr. Tahir Ashrafi:
DNA should be considered – at best – a circumstantial evidence on the basis of which arrests can be made and further investigations should be carried out. However, a suspect must not be punished on the basis of DNA evidence alone, for that evidence of four Muslim male adults is necessary.
On the same blog, Tazeen Javed commented:
If I was a legislator, I would call for making a law that would hand out the harshest punishment for those 4 adult, supposedly pious Muslims men who were silently witnessing a crime as horrible as rape.

The popular Zee TV show has been climbing the TAM charts steadily and has finally hit the number one position
No one predicted the period show Jodha Akbar to do so well, 'coz the show started off rather low in numbers. In fact, people had predicted that the makers will pull the plug on the show sooner than later.
However, Ekta Kapoor and Zee Programming Head Ajay Balwankar said that they have faith in the product and it will eventually pull numbers. And boy they were right. In a press conference a few months back Ajay had said, "We were confident that the show will grow and it is growing. The story is just beginning to take shape as we had to initially see that certain characters get introduced to audiences. Now viewers will get to see Jodha and Akbar getting together."
The romance quotient in Jodha Akbar touched the audience's hearts and melted ours too. The numbers are a proof of that. Jodha Akbar's TRP reached 6.7. Surprisingly they pushed behind Star Plus' popular show, Diya Aur Baati Hum that has been at the numero uno position for the past two years. Diya Aur Baati Hum got 6.0 TRP this week.
Now we have to see how long the soap will sustain this new high and ratings. We believe, if the makers keep at the romantic angle for long enough the numbers will remain steady, which is a big achievement. However, no one can really predict the numbers, for all you know there will be a new show that will take the charts by surprise with its story line.
The others in the race should now take a cue, buck up and show us some interesting and fun content. Don't you agree?

Getting To Know... Kirsten Flipkens
Published January 11, 2013 02:48
HOBART, Australia - This time last year, things were not looking all that rosy for Kirsten Flipkens. A miserable 2011 had seen the Belgian slip so far down the rankings that she was forced to qualify for the Australian Open. She didn't make it.
Fast forward 12 months and the picture is an altogether brighter one. A clean bill of health and a sparkling end to the season has seen Flipkens arrive Down Under in buoyant mood. And the results in the last two weeks have done nothing to dampen her spirits.
A quarterfinal in Auckland was followed up this week with a semifinal in Hobart that is likely to see the 27-year-old sneak into the Top 50 just in time for the Australian Open.
But before she gets her Melbourne campaign up and running, she spared a few moments to talk to wtatennis.com about comebacks, Kim and Tina Turner.
How did you get into tennis?
KF: My mum and dad played recreational tennis when I was younger so I wanted to play as well and eventually they let me join in!
Can you tell us about your family?
KF: My dad's name is Marino. He is a car dealer - mostly second-hand German cars like VWs and BMWs. My mum is involved in this a bit too, but for the rest of the time she is a housewife. I have no brothers or sisters, although I do have a dog, Belle, and two cats, Tiger and Billie.
Who is coaching you at the moment?
KF: For the moment, I don't have a full time coach. I am practicing in the KCA (Kim Clijsters Academy) when I am back in Belgium. Of course, Kim always had, and always will have, an influence on me and my tennis - I love to practice with her sometimes when she has time and when she wants to play with me!
How would you describe your playing style and what are your strengths?
KF: I am an all court player. I like to do everything a bit. I would say my serve and all round game is my strength.
Did you have a tennis idol growing up?
KF: I always looked up to Andre Agassi and Marcelo Rios. In the women, Steffi Graf was always my hero - her slice was awesome as well.
What's the best memory of your career so far?
KF: Winning my first WTA title in Québec, Canada last September.
Who has been the toughest opponent you've faced?
KF: For me, the toughest opponent, mentally, was Kim when we had to play each other in the third round of the US Open in 2009. Kim and I already knew each other so long, so it was really tough for us to be focused. We both had the feeling we were going on court to play a doubles match!
What are your goals in tennis?
KF: I love the game. My goals are always to improve, do my best and enjoy as much as I can for as long it will last because I know how hard it feels when you cannot play due to injuries.
Do you have a favorite surface?
KF: For sure my favorite surface is grass. I love to play in 's-Hertogenbosch and Wimbledon.
How far did you go in your education?
KF: Not far! I stopped when I was 17 years old. For me, it was impossible to do tennis and education. I don't regret it so far.
What do you like to do to for fun?
KF: I like to make music sets. Go cycling, enjoy my Vespa, spending time with my friends outside in the summer.
Do you have a favorite book, film or musician?
KF: Not really. I like a lot of movies. I like to listen to all kinds of music - everything from Tina Turner to David Guetta to Live.
If you had to describe yourself in one word, what would it be?
KF: Stubborn. In the positive and negative way!
If you could meet anyone in the world who would you like it to be?
KF: I would choose Tina Turner, I think. For me, she is an unbelievable woman with such a great voice.
If not tennis, what career path would you have chosen?
KF: Actually, I have no idea. My interest now is in cars, because of my father, so I think maybe with him in the car business.

Sanborn Man Arrested On Felony Drug Charges
Date posted - November 6, 2012
A Sanborn man is behind bars on felony drug charges after he was arrested Monday (11/5). 20-year-old Adam Bradley Bonnema Tebben of Sanborn was arrested on a warrant for two counts of Prohibited Acts- Delivery of a Controlled Substance – Vyvanse (Lisdexamfetamine). The counts are both class C felonies, and he faces up to 10 years in prison and a $50,000 fine on each count.
According to online resources, Vyvance is usually prescribed to treat ADHD, but it is abused for a "high".
Authorities say The charges stem from an ongoing narcotics investigation in which Tebben allegedly sold and delivered Vyvanse prescription pills to an individual on two different dates. The first incident occurred on September 18, 2011 and the second occurred on March 28, 2012. Both incidents happened within the Sanborn city limits.
Following Tebben's arrest he was booked into the O'Brien County Jail. Tebben will make an initial appearance before O'Brien County Magistrate Jeff Queck and then will be scheduled to appear in O'Brien County District Court at a later date to answer to the charges.

Bulldog Track Stays Close To Home & Has Success At Georgia Tech
March 29, 2014 ATLANTA --- Georgia's track and field teams recorded five wins to highlight the Yellow Jacket Invitational in Atlanta on a soggy Saturday. Following a two-hour delay to the start the meet, Bulldog head coach Wayne Norton said his team improved during its second outdoor meet weekend of the year. "Weather had an effect because we were hoping it would be a little warmer and dry," Norton said. "The whole men sprints group did a good job today. The effort was good from everyone and that is the biggest thing we are pulling from this meet. If the weather continues to improve and our effort stays like this, good things will happen for us. We have to continue to make a little progress week by week and get better." Sophomore Jamario Calhoun, senior Johnathan Smith and freshmen Brandon Thompson and Reggie Glover combined to win the 4x100-meter relay in the first running event of the day. The quartet ran a 40.64 to edge the Auburn Elite squad (40.71). Another pair of Bulldog sprinters, freshmen Derrick White and Ayrian Evans, went 1-2 in the 400. White cruised to a victory with a 47.37 and Evans finished behind him after recording a 47.89 in his first outdoor collegiate 400 race. Junior Drew Branch won the 400 hurdles by more than three seconds after running his lap in 52.50. Johnathan Smith tied the sixth-best time in school history (20.54) to win the 200 over Georgia Tech's Broderick Snoddy with the nation's fifth-best time this year. Smith was also second in the 100 after running a 10.29 to finish just .01 behind Snoddy. Calhoun (20.97) and sophomore Maurice Freeman (20.98) also broke the 21-second mark for the first time in their careers to take fourth and fifth in the 200. True freshman Tatiana Gusin jump-started her outdoor collegiate career by clearing 5 feet, 8 ¾ inches on her second try in the women's high jump. Gusin took second in the event for the second runner-up finish of her Lady Bulldog career. An 800 specialist, junior Charles Grethen finished second in the 1500 after clocking a 3:52.30. Also in the middle distance, freshman Natalie Bordes was fourth in the 800 with a 2:14.06. Fellow freshman Brian Sullivan finished the men's 800 with a 1:52.18 for seventh place. Freshman Kendell Williams completed her six-throw series in the javelin with a mark of 125-11. This gave the heptathlete a third-place finish in the event. In the men's javelin, junior Garrett Scantling and sophomore Maicel Uibo, who are both decathletes, finished just under their personal best in the javelin to take second and fourth, respectively. Scantling had a mark of 211-2 in his first meet of 2014 after redshirting the indoor season while Uibo reached 196-5 on his sixth throw. Also of note, former Lady Bulldog NCAA champion Nikola Lomnicka competed unattached and won the hammer throw by 36 feet. Lomnicka launched her second toss 223-7 after finishing her Georgia career at the No. 2 spot in the school record books at 219-6. On Friday at Georgia Tech, 11 Georgia women ran in the 5000. Freshman Morgan Ainslie was the top Lady Bulldog finisher in sixth with a time of 18:01.29. The Bulldogs also traveled four men to North Carolina for the Raleigh Relays on Friday. Junior Brandon Lord grabbed the top collegiate finish (second overall) in the 10,000 after clocking the nation's best time (29:10.87) this year. This improves his No. 2 time in school history and is the best time for Georgia since Ian Burrell set the school record in 2007. Nine spots behind Lord in the race was senior Luke Baker. Baker took 11th after running his 25 laps in 29:37.45, which is the sixth-best time in school history. In addition, senior Charlie Sparks finished with the ninth-best time (30:02.78) in the UGA record books and was 24th in the race. Georgia returns to action at the Florida Relays on April 3-5. Results and recaps from the Yellow Jacket Invitational and the Raleigh Relays will be located at georgiadogs.com. Updates about all Bulldog track and field news can be found on Twitter at @UGA_XCTF.

Axle Swap
Can anyone give me an idea of how much time is involved in an axle swap? I've got a set of G2 D44's sitting in crates, waiting to be installed.
are they a direct replacement? are all the controll arm, shock tabs and coil buckets in the same spot. If so then its not too bad at all, could probaly get it done in 8-10 hours. Is the yolk the same, is the new axle pinion longer/shorter if so you might have to shorten the drive shafts. E brakes cable brackets? basically if its ready to go then 8-10 hours for the average weekend warrior, or possibly 2 or 3 days if you need to do alot of modifications.
A rear axle can be swapped in 90 minutes if you just bolt your existing brakes onto the new axle without disconnecting the brake lines. Less than 90 minutes with air tools, a good floor jack, and a friend to help keep the axle balanced on the jack.
The front is probably an all morning or all afternoon job... but both are doable in a day. |
Seriously if they are direct bolt in, can be easily done in a day. |
As long as your bolts aren't rusty your looking at 4-5 hours on both if you know what your doing. Rear is pretty dang easy.
Thanks for the info, guys. They're NIB, G2 D44's for a TJ....4.56 gears, rear disks, and E-Lockers. I've already got a SYE and new driveshaft installed. I'm wondering if the driveshaft will have to be shortened.....
The driveshafts may need to be shortened an inch, the yoke on a D44 sits about an inch further out. But you may be ok if you have more lift than when you measured for them... or if each driveshaft still has enough of the splined area so they can compress enough. Do a test fit & just see if there is still sufficient spline length left for them to compress enough.
Thanks for th info, Jerry. I'll test-fit it all, and see what happens.

Ohio State holds off Michigan State for Urban eyer's first Big Ten win
Braxton Miller threw for 179 yards and ran for 130, and No. 14 Ohio State held off No. 20 Michigan State, 17-16, Saturday in East Lansing, Mich., giving Urban Meyer a win in his first Big Ten game as Buckeyes coach.
Miller put Ohio State (5-0, 1-0) ahead, 17-13, with a 63-yard touchdown pass to Devin Smith in the third quarter, and the Buckeyes' maligned defense held Le'Veon Bell and the Michigan State running game in check. Meyer becomes the third coach to start 5-0 in his first season at Ohio State. Carol Widdoes and Earle Bruce also did it in 1944 and 1979.
''This was a war. This was two sledgehammers going at each other,'' Meyer said. ''I know the Big Ten has taken some heat. That was a great game. Great atmosphere, a bunch of great players on the field that are going to be playing at the next level, and that was good for college football and good for the Big Ten.''
Michigan State (3-2, 0-1) has lost four home games in a row against Ohio State.
Michigan State took a 13-10 advantage in the third on a terrific individual effort by Keith Mumphery. With the ball on the Ohio State 29 after a personal foul call on the Buckeyes, Mumphery took Andrew Maxwell's short pass and eluded four tacklers before dragging a couple more Buckeyes into the end zone.
The lead didn't last long. Miller barely picked up a first down with a run on third and 1, then lofted a deep pass on the next play to Smith, who beat Johnny Adams to put Ohio State ahead to stay.
Alabama 33, Mississippi 14 — Amari Cooper caught two touchdown passes from AJ McCarron and Christion Jones returned a kickoff 99 yards for another score, leading the No. 1 Crimson Tide (5-0, 2-0 SEC) over to the Rebels (3-2, 0-1) .
The Crimson Tide trailed briefly, 7-6, for the first time in regulation since last year's Tennessee game, a span of nine-plus games. The Rebels put up a fight against a team that had been walloping opponents by nearly 37 points on average, but still lost their ninth straight SEC opener.
LSU 38, Towson 22 — Zach Mettenberger connected with Odell Beckham Jr. five times for 128 yards and two touchdowns, but the No. 3 Tigers (5-0) had to battle to beat overmatched but feisty Towson (2-2) in Baton Rouge, La.
Mettenberger's scoring strikes to Beckham went for 53 and 27 yards. He finished 15 of 26 for 238 yards passing. Still, Mettenberger was sacked four times, missed some open receivers and a fumble he gave up — one of three LSU turnovers — led to the first of two touchdown runs by Towson's Terrance West.
Georgia 51, Tennessee 44 — Todd Gurley ran for three touchdowns and Keith Marshall added two as the No. 5 Bulldogs recovered after blowing a 17-point lead to beat the visiting Vols (3-2, 0-2) in the highest-scoring game ever between the SEC rivals.
Georgia (5-0, 3-0) needed three takeaways in the final six minutes to claim the win. Twice Sanders Commings intercepted Tyler Bray's passes and in between the Tennessee quarterback was stripped from behind and the fumble was recovered by Georgia.
South Carolina 38, Kentucky 17 — Marcus Lattimore ran for two touchdowns and Connor Shaw passed for another in the second half as the No. 6 Gamecocks (5-0, 3-0 SEC) scored 31 straight points to beat the host Wildcats.
Lattimore rushed for 120 yards on 23 carries and Kenny Miles added a 17-yard score for South Carolina, which trailed Kentucky (1-4, 0-2) 17-7 after a ragged first half.
West Virginia 70, Baylor 63 — Geno Smith tied a Big 12 mark with eight touchdown passes and threw for 656 yards to lead the No. 9 Mountaineers (4-0) to a rout of the No. 25 Bears (3-1) in their conference debut at Morgantown, W.V.
Smith outdueled Baylor's Nick Florence, who had a standout game of his own with 581 yards and five TDs. Smith had more TD passes than incompletions (six).
The Bears' Terrance Williams set a Big 12 record with 314 yards receiving. The old mark was set minutes earlier by West Virginia's Stedman Bailey, who had 303 yards and a school-record five TDs.
TCU 24, SMU 16 — Casey Pachall threw two touchdown passes, Jason Verrett had two interceptions, and the No. 15 Horned Frogs (4-0) extended their FBS-best winning streak to 12 games by beating the Mustangs (1-3) in Dallas.
Louisville 21, Southern Miss 17 — Senorise Perry rushed for 118 yards and two TDs, Jeremy Wright added 84 rushing yards, and the No. 19 Cardinals (5-0) rallied to beat the host Golden Eagles (0-4).
Nebraska 30, Wisconsin 27 — Taylor Martinez guided four straight scoring drives in the second half and the No. 22 Cornhuskers (3-1-0, 1-0 Big Ten) came back from a 17-point deficit to defeat the Badgers (3-2, 0-1) in Lincoln, Neb.
Boise State 32, New Mexico 29 — Joe Southwick passed for 311 yards and three touchdowns to help the No. 24 Broncos (3-1, 1-0 Mountain West) beat the host Lobos (2-3, 0-1).

I don't say this lightly, by the way. Having watched every week of the live "Idol" competition carefully and having written about the show almost daily for over a month now, I have given this plenty of thought. For awhile now, it's been obvious that there were only four possibilities to win this season of "American Idol": Kree, Angie Miller, Candice Glover and Amber Holcomb.
They were always the likely Top 4. Now, America has to make the tough choice of when to send each of the girls home. It will be close, whatever happens.
So why do I think Kree should come out on top?
It's not personal (except that it always is in music)
I feel like I should make it clear that my pick of Kree is not based on a personal like or dislike of anyone. Even though Kree is — as her competitors and all production packages make clear — pretty much an angel sent straight from heaven, she deserves to win because of her performances.
Obviously, Kree can sing. That's a given for the Top 4 this season. They are all incredible singers. What makes Kree stand out in that group?
First of all, she has the experience to face winning "Idol" like a pro and not like a kid thrust directly into the spotlight. Kree has been singing in Nashville for several years now and is not exactly an amateur on the country-music scene.
Then, there's the performance. Alone among the Top 4, only Kree connects directly to her audience and gives the impression that she's always up there for our entertainment, not to gain praise of her own.
Kree also, alone of all the singers in Season 12, performs successfully across genres. While a country singer in her roots, you'd hardly be able to tell that with the vast swath of pop, blues, rock and more we've heard.
Finally, back to the point I slipped past at the beginning, Kree is a sweetheart. Audiences can tell that, and it helps Kree to connect. A successful performer needs to get the audience to believe she is singing directly to them. It's a hard thing to do, but Kree makes it look easy.
What about the others?
Despite my rather definitive statement about who should win "American Idol" Season 12, there isn't a wholly wrong choice available at this point. Each of the Top 4 girls has a shot at really making this crazy music thing work.
But …
The judges seem to think Amber is the most "marketable" of the girls. If you think of marketable as being young and pretty and easily molded into whatever form of pop princess might sell some records, then yes. Amber is very marketable. Unfortunately, she also has the least presence when performing. The good looks and the nice voice are great, but there isn't that undefined "something" that the great performers have.
Give her another couple of years and Amber might find her "something," but I don't think it's there yet.
Candice has the best voice of "American Idol" Season 12. Seriously, the girl has a set of lungs that most of us would kill for. She sings beautifully and makes interesting choices in her performances.
Still, Candice never seems to command the stage the way some of the others do. When she sings, you don't see her as a dominant voice, standing front and center. Instead, Candice could be a talented backup singer. Add to that the fact that no one really knows where to place her in the music world (Blues? Soul? Gospel? Pop?), and Candice is a tough choice for the top spot on "Idol."
Then there's Angie. It's hard to come up with anything to say against Angie. She's pretty, she connects to people, her voice is great … Oh, and let's not forget that Angie writes and performs original music that audiences already like! That's no small feat.
In all honesty, my only issue with Angie is that she doesn't feel as connected to the audience as Kree. That probably doesn't matter on an album or on TV, but it would hurt on a live-music stage.
What it all comes down to
As I mentioned right at the beginning of this piece, the choice of Season 12's "Idol" winner is quite personal. You either like someone and her music, or you don't.
That's why my final pick for who I think should win this season of "American Idol" comes down to one simple question: Whose music do I want to keep listening to? The answer, for me anyway, is Kree. Forget the fact that I'm neither a country nor a blues fan (Kree's two most-preferred genres), I want to listen to her.
And in the end, that's what makes a singer a star.
Who do you think should win "American Idol"? What makes someone the best on this show? Give your opinions in the comments!

Charlotte updated: Aug 16, 2014, 9:00 AM

"Charlotte" - a calico cat with a story!
Charlotte survived a fire at her home in Orcutt when it burned down. She gave birth to kittens on that day in June. The sad part is that her owners had no idea she was even pregnant. They knew they couldn't care for her kittens while rebuilding and didn't want her either.
Charlotte only weighed a little over five pounds when she arrived at a RESQCATS foster home with kittens to nurse. But she quickly learned how to pack in the groceries and although she is still very petite, she is looking mighty fine!
I can say that Charlotte was loved as she is very people friendly and loves attention. She is the kind of kitty that puts her front paws on your knee when you are sitting or stooping to ask for love in her very gentle way. She is sweet has an out-going disposition. She is the kind of kitty who will adjust to a new home quickly. She will be grateful to have her own bed and people who will protect her and care for her, things I am sure she never had. And she has missed out on kitten-hood by raising a family at such a young age (she is just about a year) and has some catching up to do! So expect her to play with her mylar toys, and fake fur mice!
Her calico markings are laced with some tabby markings and while that is unique, her eyes are what will capture your heart. Big, clear light green just full of expression and hopes for a forever home, soon.
Charlotte is available for adoption through RESQCATS

I've said it in a previous post but he and his contemporaries defined UK comedy in the 80s. He will be missed.
ReplyCancelDrop Dead Fred, really dropped dead 🙁
RIP he was so good in the Young Ones remember it being on MTV when I was a kid and how crazy it was for the time.
ReplyCancel@Dingle, more like since Enty steals all his blinds from the Daily Mail, it would only be proper to give the Brits a shout out…;-)
ReplyCancelOooooooo, Violet has some serious pull with Enty. And then look at that sassy comeback to Dingle. Our little ginger Brit is all fired up today.
ReplyCancelSo sad. Rik never really recovered from the quad bike accident.
My fave character of his was Alain B'stard, the New Statesman.
ReplyCancelGutted. I loved him growing up.
Who's gonna look after Snot Face now??
ReplyCancelToo young.
I credit The Young Ones (and MTV for airing it) for introducing this small-town American to British humor.
ReplyCancelVery sad, very young. RIP.
Am I ghoulish to want to know cause of death? :-((
ReplyCancelI'm distraught about this. Far far too young. I grew up watching him. The young ones, bottom (TV and live shows) Blackadder, king arthurs disasters…drop dead fred, the new statesman (my fave). He will be sooooo missed xxxxxxxx
ReplyCancelI never saw The Young Ones but if it's British you can bet it's good. Adore British humor. They are some funny mo fos!
RIP Rik!
ReplyCancelI just now ordered "The Young Ones" from my library, as I only know him from "Blackadder." I needed a good classic new-to-me British comedy anyway. 🙁
ReplyCancelAKM – You will LOVE The Young Ones. It's amazing!
This makes me so sad. My thoughts to his family and friends.
ReplyCancelWe would sit around (smoking hash) and watching The Young Ones, Bennie Hill, Monty Python and Dr. Who (Tom Baker!). In the very early 80's there was quite a bit of British TV available in the states. There was nothing like it at the time and quite frankly there's been nothing like it since (nothing like that hash either). RIP Rik.
ReplyCancelDeath 'not suspicious' say police. Very sudden. His wife found him this morning. Dreadful for her and children.
ReplyCancelHe introduced me to some great humor that no one in my house understood in the 80s. Thank you MTV for bringing me The Young Ones and Rik.
ReplyCancelThat B'stard thing was the first comedy series I ever watched (local and foreign).
ReplyCancelI was about 15 when my friends and and I used to sit around laughing at him and the anarchic humour of The Young Ones.
This is such sad news. Rest in Peace x
ReplyCancelThe Young Ones were the best ever!!!
There was always a weird "blip" on the screen-every episode. If you slowed the VHS tape down, you would see that a random picture had been inserted.
Every one.
ReplyCancelOhhhh I so many sads about this…..The Young Ones defined my teen years and I saved up all my money to see him live with Ben Elton in 1986. Such a genius….
ReplyCancelAlso try and find 'Bottom' his show with Ade Edmonson….it was like Rik and Vyvyan from The Young Ones grown up.
I never really watched The New Statesman but I've heard it's great too.
Enty, how could you not mention "Drop Dead Fred"?? It came out when I was about 10 and everybody I knew around my age *loved* it.
Sometimes when I'm annoyed at someone I still think of Drop Dead Fred's solution for Lizzie's ex-boyfriend. "I know! We'll harpoon him through the head!" LOL.
ReplyCancelIt's like a piece of my rebellious teenager has gone. So sad.
The young ones was on at 11.30pm! You had to be REALLY HARD to stay up & watch it. Or wasted. (Not so much at 14!)
May the seed of your loin be fruitful in the belly of your womaaaan!

Miguel Angel Jiménez, an aficionado of fast cars, fine wine and the odd cigar, is a Spaniard who knows how to live life to the full. David Howell, by contrast, is committed to 12 hour days and other sacrifices in his relentless quest to become the best golfer he can be. But whatever the contrasts in style, the contest for the BMW Championship 2006 – The Players' Flagship at Wentworth Club has an irresistible appeal.
Jiménez describes the potential shoot-out as a "gentleman's battle", while the tabloid scribe looking for a snappy football headline insisted it was a day for two great Galacticos to slug it out head to head. The truth is somewhere in the middle – for it should be a truly inspiring final day to a wonderful Championship.
Going into 'Super Sunday', Howell leads the field by three shots with a 14 under par total of 202 following a third round of 69, while Jiménez deliver a rapier thrust with a 65 – the best of the day – to climb within striking distance of the halfway leader on 205. Neither will take it for granted that it is now a two horse race, for lying ready to ambush the leading pair on eight under par are the Englishmen Paul Casey and Simon Khan, who shot 69 and 70 respectively.
Howell and Jiménez are two of the most gracious men in the game and deeply respectful of each other's abilities. Jiménez insists Howell is a great golfer and a 'super guy'. The Englishman batted back the compliment by describing his pony-tailed Spanish adversary as a 'lovely guy and a great competitor'.
Out on the West Course today, however, there will be no such exchange of pleasantries until the final round is over and the BMW Championship title has been earmarked for England, Spain or – just possibly – France after Jean Van de Velde reeled off a 66 and his compatriot, Francois Delamontagne, joined him on six under par along with England's Nick Dougherty and Ireland's Padraig Harrington.
Howell began the third round three strokes clear of Dougherty, who experienced a less than satisfactory day with a round of 74. A pair of birdies at the sixth and seventh sent a message of intent and although he dropped a shot at the short tenth, it was a short-lived glitch.
Despite the damp weather which made the course play every yard of its 7308 length, Howell stuck rigidly to his game plan and birdied the 17th to 18th at a time when the resolute Spaniard had found a hot putter and used it to great effect with seven birdies and no dropped shots.
If Howell was concerned that his lead had been trimmed to one shot, it didn't show. That pair of birdies to close his round simply confirmed that this is a young man riding a wave of confidence borne from winning last year's BMW International Open in
Howell could move into the world's top ten for the first time in his life if he triumphs and he will certainly clinch his second Ryder Cup appearance. He said: "A 69 was a good effort in the conditions but Miguel has obviously played fantastically well to shoot 65.
"If I shoot 66 now I can take it out of most people's hands, but if Miguel plays well then I'll have to as well. But I'm in a strong position - there's a fair chance it's between the two of us. I fancied it wouldn't be as plain sailing as yesterday and it wasn't, but I managed to stay patient."
On his ascent of the World Ranking, Howell added: "When I turned pro my hopes were just to play golf for a living. My mates were turning, so I thought I would. I remember being delighted making the cut at the tour school and knew I could play the Challenge Tour. I thought that was a fantastic achievement - and obviously things have gone slightly better!"
Out in 31, 42 year old Jiménez set off in pursuit of Howell and added further birdies on the 11th and 16th and even with the rain at its hardest his pitch to the last skidded to a halt just a foot from the flag. It was the shot of a magician and, temporarily at least, reduced Howell's lead to just one.
"It rains so little in
"It will be a gentlemens' battle tomorrow. David is a great player, there's no doubt, and a nice guy. A super guy."
Jiménez also knows a thing or two about BMWs, as his trophy collection already includes the BMW Asian Open and the BMW International Open during a glorious 2004 season on The European Tour. Now he aims to make a bold showing in his attempt to become the first player to capture all three BMW titles on the Tour's International Schedule.
Casey, who has contended with impressive regularity over the past three weeks in The Quinn Direct British Masters, the Nissan Irish Open, and now the BMW Championship, kept up the good work with a 69 which included only one error at the first hole.
Defending champion Angel Cabera looks unlikely to be transporting the familiar BMW Championship trophy back to

Oneok Inc.'s OKE, -0.85% first-quarter profit fell 5.6% as weak natural gas demand led to a surprise revenue drop, while its Oneok Partners LP OKS, -0.82% unit posted a 58% earnings jump due to favorable prices for natural gas liquids.
Oneok posted improving earnings last year as expanding natural-gas processing capacity added to its top line. The company, which distributes natural gas through utilities in Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas, has also benefited from growing business in its gas-gathering and transportation affiliate.
Oneok's earnings suffered in the latest quarter, however, as warmer-than-normal weather in Kansas and Oklahoma reduced demand in its natural-gas distribution segment. Weak natural gas prices also prompted the company's energy services segment to incur writedowns.
Earnings surged at Oneok Partners, which continues to benefit from natural gas liquids price differentials and stronger volume.
The partnership has been investing heavily in pipeline and fuel-gathering infrastructure as demand for its services builds. Oneok Partners last month said it will spend between $1.5 billion and $1.8 billion to build a 1,300-mile crude-oil pipeline between the Bakken Shale in North Dakota and the Cushing, Okla. crude-oil market hub, marking the company's entry into the crude-oil transportation business,.
New drilling techniques used on shale-rock formations have upended the North American energy market in recent years, leading to a natural-gas glut that has pushed down prices. At the same time, prices for oil and natural-gas liquids have remained relatively high, prompting new investment in regions that yield both.
Oneok Inc. reported a profit of $122.9 million, or $1.16 a share, down from $130.1 million, or $1.19 a share, a year earlier. The latest quarter included a $29.9 million charge reflecting reclassified losses on financial contracts and $10.3 million write down of goodwill. Revenue slid 9.2% to $3.41 billion.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected a $1.30 per-share profit with $4.69 billion of revenue.
Oneok Partners, the company's gas-gathering and transportation affiliate, reported a profit of $238.8 million, or 91 cents a unit, up from $150.9 million, or 58 cents a unit, a year earlier. Wall Street expected 79 cents a unit.

OH YEAH! Level 85!
16 comments:
Grats! I've been playing what seems like for ever and only have one 85 :/ My druid is 77 though and I'm working on others too. Like you, I'm a slow leveler and get distracted by other things easily. That picture looks like something from Burning Man! If there ever is an apocalypse of any kind IRL I think I will be "farming" that outfit up myself, haha. Grats again and that wasps colors are very pretty indeed!
ReplyDeleteRepliesThanks Ruby! :) getting distracted while leveling has a fun upside as well. I get a lot of other stuff done that way. Other friends end up with alt 85's with no professions or pets or mounts, while mine work on all those things slowly as I move along. By the time I'm 85 I got it goin' ONNNNN. XD haha.
I think you're Frikky and I like you a lot... at least that's what popped into my head when I saw your name. Weird looking band on Letterman the other night but the amount of times he repeated that line over the next few nights, I just had to include it here.
You're new pet looks great. I always go for the rare hunter pets :PTell Frikky Grats! That is the absolute best looking hunter I've ever seen. I wish someone at Blizzard could see that image and come up with an appropriate outfit.
