MAYBE ... before you read the details of this long story, I should ask if any of these foster care groups can provide boarding care for a situation like this...
This is a strange story, but maybe someone can help me. I went to visit my friend who works at a local coffee shop on Friday the 30th. As I was getting out of the car my friend yelled out to me "Do you have a leash in your car?, we have to tie this dog up." So I got one and wennt around the front of the store no friend. So I looked around to see if she was down the street. I spotted her an another friend crouched down and walking both holding on and then the pit bulls head pop out. .
So I go over to them and we put the leash on her collar. My friend told me she knows whose dog it is and so she just need a least to tie up while we tried to call her again. She lived in the garage apartment behind the coffee shop and everything including the burglar door was locked up. So we still couldn't get her. So one person knew where she worked. So I said we can't leave a pit bull outside in front. It will get stolen and if it get out again and goes to a shelter it will be put down right away. So I took the dog -- her work doesn't open until 10:00. So my office- design firm-- let me bring it with me until I could reunite them. Very nice.
I can't take it home because I have a female lab/pit and was not sure about this one-- for sure a dominate personality but sweet to people. So as it turns out the girl cut open her chin on the concrete the night before when she lost control of the dog who went after a cat. Her mom took her to get stiches. Then again later that same night they tripped over each other or the do jumped on her or something-- not sure?? She opened up her stiches and had to go again. Then I find out that this girl is watching this dog-- as it turns out named Sadie for a friend who is out of the country. So in other words not her dog. This I find out from her Mom who finds out my cell phone number and tells me all of this. Her mom will not let her keep the dog either. Pretty upset about the stiches.
So finally around 1:30 I hear from the girl and we make arrangemets to meet and return the dog. She explains that her Mom is overreacting. Everything is cool. I gave her the number of a firend who has two pit females for advise and to call to find out where she can take the dog if she becomes overwhelmed or her mom freaks out. (I don't know for fact-- but seeing the door the way it was locked, I kinda think the mom let the dog out.)
So I go in today and one of her friends asks me if I want a dog..... This dog is sweet, but it needs to go somewhere safe and I think an only dog foster situation to be evaluated -- it is 6 months old and still has stiches from being spayed a week ago. She is chocolate and white an looks about 40- 50 pounds. I know based on her personality so far I can't take her and I live in an apartment that only allows one dog. A sherrif in the shop today is going to find the number of a resuce in Porter Texas and leave it for me and the guys at the coffe shop for the dog sitter. I just want to know if anyone else can help!!! Please she is a sweety and a cutie and will sit an lay down but is a puppy and testing her spot a bit. I don't know the girl and the dog and I feel really bad because I am can't imagine what it would feel like to intrust someone with your dog and come back to it gone or put to sleep. I have been told that the girl really loves the dog, but despite the fact that she lives on her own her mother is becoming very difficult about her keeping the dog!!! I just want to help the dog be safe untill her owner comes back and form what I understand so does the girl taking care of her. What can I do? can anyone help?[/b]
HELP!!!!! Pit Bull being dogsat-- girl can't take care of!!!
Why buy from a breeder when there are plenty of homeless pups in shelters???

Hello, Grimmsters! It's been such a long, cold, lonely hiatus for Detective Dublin. There are so many unanswered questions hanging over our heads as we prepare for the return of GRIMM Friday night at 9 on NBC, but probably the biggest question everyone's asking is, "Why the hell has it been FOUR MONTHS since we had a new episode?" If I had a dollar for every time I've been asked that question, I'd have a lot of dollars by now.
My answer is, I don't know why. Back when there was no such thing as a DVR, networks would run a whole season of a TV show without interruption, barring major holidays or a President talking. Sometimes they'd take a break from showing new episodes, but when they did, they would air these things called "repeats", where it would be an episode of the SAME SHOW from earlier that season. CRAZY NUTTY, right? Except not, because it gave people who missed those episodes the first time around a chance to catch up on what they might have missed, because no DVRs. Why they don't do this now is beyond me, because can you remember a single thing the network aired Friday nights during GRIMM's long break? Me neither.
However, we have lived through this barren period and emerged the stronger for it, so we're ready to tackle bigger questions that have been lingering since we last saw our troubled Grimm, Portland Police Detective Nick Burkhardt (David Giuntoli). The buzz on tonight's new episode is excellent, and I can't wait to see how it all comes together.
To bring you up to speed:
Nick's girlfriend, Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) was put under a spell-coma by Hexenbiest Adalind Schade (Claire Coffee), only to be revived with a kiss from Nick's boss, Portland Police Captain Sean Renard (Sasha Roiz), who is half-human, half-Hexebiest and a member of one of the seven royal familes that rule the Wesen World. Juliette woke with zero memory of Nick; even worse, the kiss deepened the spell, making Renard and Juliette all obsessy with each other. She tried to keep her feelings a secret from Nick, since they were trying to work things out, but eventually the spell made it impossible.
Renard, wanting to break the spell, went to the Spice Shop for help and encountered everyone's favorite Blutbad, Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell). Renard was forced to bring Juliette to the Spice Shop to try to reverse the spell, and Monroe caught them kissing. Nick had no idea the other man Juliette had fallen in love with was his boss until Monroe, his best buddy, clued him in.
If all that dramz wasn't enough, there is still the matter of the key that Nick's Aunt Marie left him. Why do all the royals want it? What is it for? Now that the Captain has found Aunt Marie's Trailer of Cool Grimm Stuff and Nick knows his boss is getting it on with his girlfriend, how's that going to play out at work? Nick's partner, Hank Griffin (Russell Hornsby), now wise to the ways of Wesen and Grimms, just might get caught in the middle of all this.
When my fellow detective extras and I returned to the set last month, we had all these questions ourselves. Since we don't get to see the full scripts (although we get occasional glimpses at the sides, which are small printed copies of the day's scenes), we mostly find out what's going on when the rest of the world does.
There are a few clues here and there (Heads up: the episode entitled "Ring of Fire" is going to knock your eyes out. Also, I know why Hank is going 'on a trip' in an upcoming episode but I can't tell you why just yet), and several theories are floated as to how the Nick-Juliette-Renard bizarre love triangle will play out before we wrap for the season in mid-April.
Personally, I think Nick could do better. All he has to do is check out the petite flower sitting at the desk next to his >COUGH COUGH<
That leaves one last, ginormous question: Will GRIMM get a third season? All signs are pointing to yes, but as I write this, nothing has been confirmed. On set last week, everyone seemed to be of the mind that we'll be back, which is a great feeling. I've said it before, but this crew and cast really love working together. There is a sense of family here that extends to every last person.
We have a truly special thing going on. Silly things happen, and we have a lot of fun while also working incredibly hard. I'm such a dork for GRIMM, I brought everyone little kid-type Valentines because we had a precinct shoot on February 14th. That probably doesn't happen with the extras on many shows; I doubt there's going to be another set where I'm going to be embraced and called "beautiful lady" by a cast member (in this case, it was the darling Reggie Lee, who plays Sgt. Wu).
So keep all of the fingers crossed that we're a lock for Season Three. Until then: the second half of the second season of GRIMM kicks off Friday night, with all-new episodes and no huge breaks or repeats until the season finale. There's a bone-crushing fight scene between Nick and Renard, plus Fuchsbau Rosalee (Bree Turner) is finally "back from visiting her aunt" which is TV show plot talk for "had an adorable baby boy in real life".
Most importantly (hee), don't forget to keep your eyes peeled for Detective Dublin in the precinct scenes. She just might strut right behind Nick and Wu and pull her some focus.

Cynthia Tipton was having dinner with her family at a restaurant outside St. Louis when her son had a meltdown.
Noland, 10, has high-functioning autism, and his older sister Sophie had been lightly teasing him, Tipton told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
He began to scream and cry as they ate at Bandana's Bar-B-Q in Rock Hill, Missouri. Tipton responded by kneeling beside him, rubbing his back and whispering in his ear until he calmed down, she wrote in a Facebook post.
She was feeling self-conscious, even embarrassed, so when the waitress walked over, she thought perhaps someone had complained and they were going to be asked to leave.
Their server did bring a message from another diner, but it was one that Tipton never expected.
"We were very fortunate that nobody in the restaurant complained or gave us dirty looks," she wrote. "So imagine my overwhelming surprise when our waitress came over and told us another family paid our bill."
Not only had the anonymous family paid for their dinner, but they left a heart-warming note of encouragement on the receipt.
"Hi! We couldn't help but notice what a great mother you are and what a beautiful family you have. God bless," the anonymous good Samaritans had scrawled at the top.
Tipton recently opened an indoor gym for children on the autism spectrum and their families, and wrote that striving for acceptance like this is one of the many reasons she began that venture.
"I am always sensitive to how others judge how I am parenting and what they are thinking about my son's behaviors," she wrote, adding that she will be paying the good deed forward. "I encourage all of us to find even simple ways of acknowledging the hard work of all parents."
"This family didn't even know our circumstances but yet were so compassionate," Tipton told KDSK. "It just really touched us."

Rarely does an odd piece of street furniture capture our imaginations, but the 1979 cast-aluminum streetcar shelter sculpture on the north bank of the Lake Washington Ship Canal known as 'Waiting for the Interurban" is an exception to the rule.
Everyone in Seattle knows the six people waiting with their dog for a train that never ran there, but almost no one pays attention to the authentic shelter on the south bank of the ship canal that may have served as its model.
The Queen Anne Historical Society recently nicknamed the historic shelter "Really Waiting for the Interurban" and is excited that the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) has decided to take on its restoration and preservation.
The project's announcement encouraged figuring out why the pragmatic, little cover was curiously two-sided. We all regularly stare at this odd, triangular structure as we idled, waiting to turn left from Nickerson Street to cross the Fremont Bridge.
Bicyclists headed north careen down the Dexter Avenue North bikeway to stop by the shelter as they eagerly anticipate triggering the counters embedded in bridge's sidewalk. They surely don't realize that they owe Dexter's gentle slope going southeast from Fourth Avenue North and north from Mercer Street to the easy climbs graded for the Nickerson streetcar line.
A history of the streetcar
The shelter sits on the narrow peninsula formed by the intersection of Westlake Avenue North and Dexter, a mind-boggling intersection for those who think the two avenues are parallel to one another. Indeed, parallel they are from downtown around the base of Queen Anne to "kiss" just where Fourth Avenue North comes tumbling down the hill to cross the 1917 bascule bridge over the ship canal.
The shelter is uniquely two-faced with a metal frame, whose brackets hold up a wooden, V-shaped roof protecting two wooden benches.
Before 1939, folks waited here to board the train to Everett on Westlake (the Interurban headed to Seattle did not pick up passengers south of 85th Street), while others waited on the Dexter side for trips west on Nickerson past the Third Avenue North car barn to 14th Avenue West. Today, bus stops located near the intersection still serve on both Dexter and Westlake.
The streetcar line on Westlake was the city's oldest. It first ran from Pike Street to Lake Union and was built between Oct. 15 and 20, 1890 — yes, in five days! The Seattle Electric Railways and Power Co. owned the route.
Later that year, the company extended the line to Fremont on wooden trestles that had only to cross a narrow creek where the Fremont Bridge is now. The trestles on Westlake stood until 1915, when the route was filled and a parallel auto road was completed.
After a number of changes in ownership, the line was taken over by Stone and Webster Seattle Electric Co. (SEC) in 1900, which acquired all 23 miles of streetcar tracks in the city and rebuilt them all with uniform trackage within two years.
Incorporated on May 29, 1902, the Everett and Interurban Railway ran 14 miles north from Market Street and 20th Avenue. In 1909, Stone and Webster took the line over, rerouted it down Phinney Avenue and completed the 29 miles to Everett by 1910.
This Interurban is memorialized by the eponymous sculpture and the pedestrian-and-bicycle trail that follows the line north from 110th Street and Dayton Avenue.
From the Fremont Bridge, the Interurban shared the Seattle Electric Co. rails along Westlake into downtown, terminating after 1927 at the current, soon-to-be-demolished Greyhound Bus station at Stewart Street and Eighth Avenue. The last train to make the one-hour-and-10-minute run left Everett at 11 p.m. on Feb. 20, 1939.
The city, having initiated its own municipal service, completed the streetcar line on Dexter on May 23, 1914. It ran from Third Avenue and Pine Street, past the car barn just north of Third Avenue West and West Nickerson Street — where the No. 13 turns around today — to 14th Avenue West, near the southern terminus of the Ballard Beach line.
A sheltered history
We don't know for sure when our Queen Anne shelter was constructed. It isn't in a 1915 photo of the site, but it appears in photos taken in the late 1920s. A good guess would place construction after the completion of the Dexter line and the 1917 opening of the Fremont Bridge.
Simple as it may be, the shelter tells a marvelous story about the history of street railways in our neighborhood.
SDOT plans to restore the structure to its original glory. We hope they find a way to restore the back-to-back benches and dress up the landscape, as well.

More than once I have stopped by the emergency room fearing I am having a heart attack. Symptoms have included tightness or sharp pains in my chest, shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness and/or a pressure sensation in my jaw.
As women, we are told to pay attention to any irregular symptoms like these and get checked out as heart disease is the number one killer of women and can easily go undetected.
The first time I went to the emergency room I was 39 years old experiencing severe chest pains and shortness of breath. I was an active, healthy woman but these symptoms were frightening, and when the doctor asked if in the past few days I had eaten spicy food, consumed any hard liquor, smoked cigarettes, and/or taken ibuprofen... I said yes to all and discovered my weekend of merriment and partying resulted in severe acid indigestion and a burnt esophagus!
Fast-forward 10 years. I quit drinking and smoking but my adoration for beverages of a caffeinated nature led me into new acidic adventures, and once again with all the symptoms in tow, off I went to emergency. They ran all the tests. Negative. I was given a cocktail of gloppy white stuff and instantly the symptoms disappeared. Again, acid indigestion. I was embarrassed but the doctor reassured me I had done the right thing and to always come in if I experienced any new sensations that might suggest a heart attack.
So a couple years later, there I was again. Each time with similar symptoms, and each time a little more embarrassed to find indigestion had once more had it's nasty way with me.
Last week, as I lay under glaring lights at 2 o'clock in the morning, hooked up to monitors and IV's with emergency attendants scurrying about, I was pretty sure this time it was the 'Big One'. For two days I had been experiencing stabbing pains in my upper left chest. So severe I would buckle and lose my breath. I had been eating healthy, cut down on my caffeine intake, getting regular exercise.... but again it was acid. Thankful, but embarrassed, the doctor once again reassured me I had done the right thing. So, I took a look at what could possibly have caused this acidity. What had I added or removed from my diet?
Ever heard of Green Coffee Bean Extract, the miracle cure for weight loss as stated by Dr. Oz? Well, when I learned of it's miracle powers, being I would never need to diet or exercise ever again to lose and/or maintain my weight, I went into a manic pursuit to acquire this product. Just think Snickers with no guilt!
[Link Removed]
Green Coffee Bean Extract contains Chlorongenic Acids, an antioxidant that slows the release of glucose into the bloodstream to support healthy liver. I should have noticed the word 'acid' as a red flag. In high hopes of gaining back my girlish figure, I popped those beans and by the end of day one the chest pains ensued. By the end of day two the Dr. in the ER said, "Welcome back!"
I am sure this supplement works for many people but if your body's ph runs more acidic than alkaline be forewarned. You may be wondering how to test the ph of your body. Check out this video as aired throughout the nation on local and national television:
[Link Removed]
This blog is not to dissuade any from seeking help if symptoms indicate a heart attack. If it happens again, I will be there in a heartbeat. Better to play it safe.
Heart Attack Signs in Women
Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. It lasts more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back.
Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.
As with men, women's most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting and back or jaw pain.
If you have any of these signs, don't wait more than five minutes before calling for help. Call 9-1-1 and get to a hospital right away.

NEW YORK — Is Fifth Avenue the next Ginza?
Gucci's new 46,000-square-foot flagship at 725 Fifth Avenue in Trump Tower takes Manhattan's designer retailing to a whole new scale, dwarfing many of its nearby competitors. The opening of the store, and Giorgio Armani's plans to open a 47,000-square-foot retail site on Fifth Avenue this fall, raises speculation as to whether Fifth Avenue is set to experience the luxury brand building boom seen recently in Tokyo's most famous shopping district, where one store is taller than the next.
This story first appeared in the February 5, 2008 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Gucci's launch comes at a time when the difficult economy is putting a crimp in spending, and not just among low- and moderate-income shoppers. Luxury shoppers are being influenced psychologically by the downturn, retail experts said.
"Of course, we are reading the newspapers and following the situation like everyone else," said Gucci president and chief executive officer Mark Lee. "The local business through the fourth quarter was very solid. Our first focus is on the local customer base" as opposed to tourists, he said.
The Gucci flagship, opening Friday, completes creative director Frida Giannini's vision for the brand, and marks a definitive end to vestiges of the Tom Ford era, which were still evident in the previous store concept. The store replaces a 33,000-square-foot unit at 685 Fifth Avenue on the corner of 54th Street, which will close its doors on Thursday. The brand first came to New York in 1953 and has been at that location for almost three decades.
Gucci's new three-level store makes an impressive and imposing brand-building statement across 158 feet of frontage and a four-story facade.
Sources said Gucci hopes to do $100 million in sales in the first year. The company is reported to be paying $16 million in annual rent. Lee declined to discuss the rent or volume projections. "With a profit of 611 million euros in 2006, we have to do a lot of business in Gucci," he said.
Abercrombie & Fitch's 36,000-square-foot flagship at 720 Fifth Avenue is said to do $100 million in annual sales.
Gucci had to completely gut and rebuild the Fifth Avenue space, which was formerly occupied by Asprey. Giannini said she came to New York three times in the process of designing the store and spent much time with her design team in Florence working on the materials and with the architectural drawings. Creating the new retail look offered her a "great opportunity to explore another area of aesthetics and design that is not just about gowns or handbags, but the overall concept of my vision for Gucci," she said. "Also, my second passion after fashion was always architecture. I am the daughter of an architect."
The new store features separate floors for accessories, men's wear and women's wear, with specific areas for ready-to-wear, evening, footwear, accessories and pre-collections. Some of the categories have double exposure in special displays.
Gucci touches abound, from a subtle double-G patterned carpet in the women's footwear area to the iconic "web" stripe, which often features prominently in the collection and is etched into the frames of the glass fixtures. For the furniture pieces sprinkled throughout the store, Giannini sought inspiration from interior and furniture designers of the Thirties and Forties, including Gio Ponti and Jean-Michel Frank. Another inspiration was the Gucci store on Via Condotti in Rome, which just underwent a similar makeover and expansion (see related story on opposite page).
With white marble floors, the Art Deco-style sofas, chaise lounges, smoked glass coffee tables and dark rosewood cabinets, the store has the feel of an expansive Upper East Side townhouse whose owner has a taste for luxury and a penchant for mid-century modernist style. A mix of ribbed glass windows and clear windows reflecting natural light into the space offers views of Fifth Avenue, a departure from the previous concept, which was darker in its execution.
"The idea was also to create a special environment with an emphasis on transparency and light," Giannini said. "The bronze glass, the use of white marble and black marble and the use of gold are new, because, for me, gold is one of the most important colors for Gucci today."
A key feature of the store is the three-level free-floating staircase, delineated by vertical gold and clear Plexiglas rods.
White marble with a stripe of black marble down the center and charcoal carpets cover the main floor, where Heritage, a new department described as part museum and part limited edition product, is located. Samples from Gucci's archives are displayed in glass cases. Newly reissued exclusive products are sold here, such as Leonardo, an accessories collection named after a Fifties print Giannini found, designed for the launch. Leonardo handbags are trimmed in precious skins and have bamboo handles.
"There will be new product every six months," Lee said. "We're thinking of our New York customers and their desire to have something special exclusively. We did tons of different exclusives for New York such as the metallic ostrich bag from the Hysteria collection."
"Gucci [Love] NY" products will be sold while supplies last to mark the flagship opening. Handbags, a briefcase and luggage made of shiny white canvas printed with GGs share a motif of red and royal blue stripes that looks like a baseball uniform. All proceeds from the "Gucci [Loves] NY" products will be donated to Playground Partners of the Central Park Conservancy, Lee said.
Men's takes up the second floor, while women's occupies the third. That 10,000-square-foot floor is divided into a series of rooms, each with a pair of gray or chocolate couches facing opposite sides of a coffee table. Rtw has also been allotted more square footage than in the old store, reflecting the fact that "total rtw sales increased 21 percent in 2007," Lee said. "This store will help us continue that momentum."
The women's fitting rooms, replete with touches of gold and rosewood, feature silk velvet walls, and there is a special VIP room, which can be accessed through a separate elevator and entrance on 56th Street.
Meanwhile, jewelry makes a bold statement with its own three-level shop, accessible through an entrance on Fifth Avenue and a pass through to women's rtw on the third floor. Of the jewelry store, Lee said, "We butt up to the wall of one important competitor," referring to Tiffany.
"There's a big gain and presence for fine jewelry," Lee said. "Fine jewelry in the [54th Street unit] was relegated to a 350-square-foot space tucked in the back of the store. From the space we're investing, we believe we're going to grow the jewelry category. We'll have the complete range and have done some exclusive, very luxurious pieces such as a special necklace and earrings for $500,000."
Giannini admitted that, when she first saw the empty space, she thought, "Oh my God, it's so big, how will I fill it?"
But she soon came to relish the scope of the project. "The old stores are a different mood," she said. "We wanted to begin again."
Giannini herself coined a name for her new retail concept: "At the beginning, I used to refer to it as the 'strategy of diversity,' because it is important that the ideas are the same, but you can have a different emotional approach in each area.
"This store concept will hopefully help take away this idea that we are now a mass-market brand," Giannini added. "This is a new important step that we can bring the brand to a different level."
Lee dismissed the idea of the store as a loss-leader used to market the brand. With 30 percent more space than the old store, there's an opportunity to do strong business. "We'll absolutely be a profitable store," he said. "It should not be seen as a vanity project or marketing tool. Seventy percent of our business comes through our own stores."
Of Gucci's 42 U.S. stores, New York is "the most important store in America," Lee said. "This will be one of the highest-grossing stores in the world." Gucci operates 233 stores worldwide.
And the brand is arriving here with one of the most anticipated parties of fashion week. Gucci on Wednesday will cohost an event with Madonna at the United Nations to benefit UNICEF and Raising Malawi. There will be performances by Alicia Keys, Timbaland and Rihanna, and the co-chair list includes Drew Barrymore, Salma Hayek, Demi Moore, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sarah Jessica Parker, Téa Leoni and Lucy Liu. For the occasion, Giannini has created special dresses for herself and Madonna, having held meetings with the performer at her home in London.
It made sense for her to hold a major event like this in New York. Giannini, a native of Rome, considers herself a big fan of the city, and has a particular fondness for downtown. When in town, she likes to dine at eateries such as Balthazar, Indochine, Pop Burger and Pastis, and Da Silvano and Bar Pitti particularly in the summertime, and favors Michael's for business lunches, especially since it's just a stone's throw from Gucci's headquarters. "I hear so much about Brooklyn," she said. "I have some friends there and would love to visit them if I have some time."
Conceiving the new flagship allowed her to bring some of New York into the store design. "It's mostly in the open space," she said. "I think of New York, and I think of open spaces. When I first came here 20 years ago, I kept looking up at the buildings, and I'm still awed by the skyline."
The Gucci [Loves] New York collection ranges from $360 for a scarf to $6,900 for a suitcase. Handbags are $630 to $770. Leonardo prices range from $5,800 for a hobo to $16,900 for a pop bamboo. Heritage styles start at $3,690 for a python top handle handbag and go to $28,500 for a crocodile top handle.

U.S. Representative Michele Bachmann has formally launched her White House bid, joining a crowded field of Republicans who hope to run against President Barack Obama in 2012.
Bachmann made the announcement in Waterloo, the city of her birth, in the Midwestern state of Iowa. The state is an important campaign destination for presidential hopefuls, as it begins the nominating process with its party caucuses, now set for February.
Bachmann told the crowd that the policies of Obama have not worked, accusing him of trying to spend his way out of the recession.
The 55-year-old Bachmann, who has enjoyed a recent surge in political opinion polls, is a favorite of the Tea Party movement that advocates a smaller government and a repeal of the president's health care law.
Other Republicans who have announced their presidential bid include frontrunner and former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, former House speaker Newt Gingrich, Texas Representative Ron Paul, former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty, and Jon Huntsman, a former Utah governor who recently resigned as Obama's ambassador to China.

An '''exorcist''' is an extinct office within the [[minor orders]] of [[clergy]]. The primary duty of exorcists was as the instructor of [[catechumen]]s
, whose entrance into the catechumenate was accompanied by an [[exorcism]], ridding them of any demonic presence that may affect them. An exorcist may also have been called upon in other instances requiring an exorcism, such as the suspicion of demon possession of a person or location. The exorcism of catechumens has subsequently been conflated into the rite of [[baptism]] and is usually performed by the [[priest]] or [[bishop]] celebrating the baptism. Since the fourth century, the functions and ministry of the exorcist have been subsumed by the presbyter.

Canadian sister act hits Sochi moguls competition
The Canadian sister act has hit Russia with style on the eve of the opening ceremony for the 2014 Winter Olympics.
Not one, not two but all three of the talented Dufour-Lapointe sisters of Quebec qualified for Saturday's final of the women's moguls event with strong runs in Thursday's preliminary round.
Chloe Dufour-Lapointe led the way by finishing second to American Hannah Kearney, who captured gold in Vancouver five years ago, while Justine was third and Maxime eighth.
It was an impressive show all around for the women, who will be joined by another Canadian, Audrey Robichaud, who qualified ninth and also advanced directly to the final.
The Montreal-raised sisters will become just the fifth set of three or more siblings to compete in the same event at a Winter Games.
The family act is clearly focussed on the task at hand as they each declined to speak with the Canadian media following the qualifying run at the Rosa Khutor Extreme Park.
But if they are getting hot at the right time, they're making a strong pitch for one of the top feel-good stories early in these Games, which kick off with Friday's opening ceremonies.
"All four are capable (of winning a medal)," Canadian coach Marc-Andre Moreau said of the group that will be looking to vault Canada off to a strong start on the first official day of Games competition.
"If they do what they have to do then they all have the potential to get on the podium."
Chasing down Kearney won't be done easily as she was the runaway leader of qualifying. But the fact that the Dufour-Lapointes were so competitive adds another layer to what has been a dream come true for the skiing siblings.
"It was really emotional, we were all really stoked," Justine Dufour-Lapointe said earlier this week of the reaction when all three were named to the team. "When we realized we were all going together to the Games, we were just proud and excited.
"But now that we're here, we've calmed down and I think we're just focussing on each of our races. We came here together, but we will ski for ourselves."
And they've been doing it rather well, too. While Kearney has claimed three of the six World Cup moguls events contested so far, the others have gone to the sisters. Justine Dufour-Lapointe has won two while Chloe has one victory.
Chloe, the middle sister at age 22, will be looking to improve on her fifth-place finish at the Vancouver Games where she competed as an 18-year-old. She has steadily improved her standing on the World Cup and captured gold in the dual moguls event at the 2013 world championship.
"It was my first gold at the international level and it proved to me that I was able to be on the top," Chloe said. "I guess I've kept the tempo this year and I trained really hard this summer to be ready for Sochi."
The sister with the biggest upside, though, may be 19-year-old Justine who won bronze at the 2013 world championship and is currently ranked second in the world. She showed Thursday that she should be in the thick of things for the medal portion of the competition.
And then there's Maxime, 24, the oldest sister and the one who was least likely to make it to the Games.
"Honestly, I never had a doubt," Maxime said when she was named to the Canadian team last month. "I planned the entire season – travel, training, racing. I knew exactly what to expect and gave it my all."
While expecting a podium sweep would be asking for the moon, all three have been in the medals at least once this season and at one point were ranked second (Justine), third (Chloe) and fifth (Maxime) in the World Cup rankings.
Whatever happens Saturday, it's been quite the ride from the days learning the sport in the Laurentians to the biggest stage in their sport. And quite a story, too.

Salvador Guardiola is an experienced boat builder and creator of the reproductions of two of the caravels that accompanied Columbus on his voyage to America, and for the last nineteen years has been in charge of the carpentry workshop in the Sagrada Família. "We chose BIESSE for the quality of the machine and the technical service on offer," notes Guardiola. "The machine cannot stop. There are days when it works for 24 hours. Therefore we need an immediate response to any incident". And the technical assistance provided by BIESSE to the carpentry workshop of the Sagrada Família will be punctual, precise and efficient. It will be provided via the online assistance the prestigious Italian firm offers its clients.
The machine cannot stop. There are days when it works for 24 hours. Therefore we need an immediate response to any incident
The new machining centre measures 2500 x 1250 mm and is the solution to a growing space problem in the workshop headed by Salvador Guardiola: an unusual workshop, with an area of 80 square metres, operating at a height of 30 metres above ground level. At present, the workshop employs 20 people out of the 200+ personnel working on the construction of the Sagrada Família. Two machine operators specializing in numerical control, one IT technician and Guardiola himself will be in charge of the new machining centre, which will work to maximum output. "Patterns arrive in the carpentry shop from the design office at a frenetic pace. Nearly all pieces are curved and irregular in shape," adds Salvador Guardiola. "These are the famous paraboloids which are the elements of a huge and intricate structure that's gradually taking shape. By 2026 the church of the Sagrada Família will be complete."
The machine was supplied by MAQUINARIA VIDAL, an agent of BIESSE IBERICA, which is also in charge of the maintenance of the other equipment on the Sagrada Família site. The KLEVER G FT is the ideal machine for nesting applications on wood and wood derivatives, and for producing non-ferrous plastic materials. With an average monthly capacity of five hundred panels, the KLEVER 1224 G FT has widia and diamond cutting heads and can produce 2,500 wooden pieces every month. And it does so with maximum optimization of the panel, working on materials such as okume, plywood, PVC, methacrylate, and plaster – of different qualities, and all in phenolic, as the pieces produced are destined for external application. To summarize: a solid, reliable, agile, versatile and compact machine for small mobile carpentry shops with constant but highly variable workloads.
A new way to discover the company, the thought of the driver, the technological innovation that gives prestige, the testimonies of those who choose to grow, the events that animate it and the stories of those who make it every day with competence and dedication.

Eating a grapefruit or drinking its juice can be a great way to get vitamin C, but it can also be dangerous when taking certain prescription drugs, researchers warn.
Grapefruit juice can interact with more than 85 oral medications, with about half of them potentially leading to severe — even deadly — consequences, finds a comprehensive review by a research team affiliated with Western University in London, Ont.
"Many of the drugs that interact with grapefruit are highly prescribed and are essential for the treatment of important or common medical conditions," authors of the review write in Monday's issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
Lead researcher David Bailey, a clinical pharmacologist at the Lawson Health Research Institute, said that in the last four years, the number of medications with the potential to interact with grapefruit and cause severe adverse effects has increased from 17 to at least 43.
"Half of these drugs actually can cause sudden death," Bailey said from London, Ont., noting that interactions can result in acute kidney or respiratory failure, gastrointestinal bleeding, or other serious effects.
Medications altered by grapefruit include highly prescribed cholesterol-lowering statins, some key heart drugs, and certain anti-psychotic and pain medicines.
That's because grapefruit contains a chemical that interferes with an enzyme that controls how drugs are absorbed through the intestines, resulting in a potentially toxic dose of medication.
"We know it boosts drug levels in blood," Bailey said.
"Now you're seeing so many drugs where the levels get boosted that the consequences are really quite dire."
Other citrus fruits that contain the chemical, at least to some degree, include limes, pomelos and Seville oranges, an ingredient frequently used in marmalades.
Commonly prescribed statins like atorvastatin (Lipitor), simvastatin (Zocor) and lovastatin (Mevacor, Altoprev) have a high to very-high risk of interacting with grapefruit and causing rhabdomyolysis, a breakdown of muscle fibres that can lead to acute kidney failure.
"Your urine looks like wine," said Bailey. "You can be in such extreme pain that you literally can't walk across the room and your kidneys have totally shut down.
"You don't have to take an awful lot of grapefruit. You can be taking one grapefruit a day or just drinking 250 millilitres. But the magnitude of the increase (of the drug) in some individuals can be so large that you can precipitate this adverse event."
The anti-clotting agent clopidogrel (Plavix), taken to prevent a heart attack or stroke, "doesn't work at all if grapefruit is eaten," he said, pointing out another medication often taken by older Canadians.
Bailey was part of a research group that first raised a red flag about a handful of grapefruit-drug interactions more than 20 years ago, and since then the number of affected medications coming to market has jumped significantly.
"But the biggest problem that we have facing us is that the science is there, but it sits on the shelf; it's not being applied, which is very frustrating," he said.
"It's gone from this curiosity — 'It's interesting, but what does it mean in real practice?' — to the point where everybody needs to know about this."
Bailey hopes that by alerting doctors through the CMAJ article, they will make sure patients prescribed an affected drug will be told not to ingest grapefruit or its juice.
As well, the information could help physicians trying to diagnose a serious health event in a patient without knowing grapefruit is part of their diet, he said, and where the person hasn't thought to mention the fact.
"That's why we wrote the paper. If you're not aware of the possibility, it's very unlikely you'll think of it."

Fascinated by shoes from an early age, Zanotti embarked upon a career in fashion and women's footwear after spending the 1980s as a club DJ. After gaining experience at Missoni, Dior and other top fashion houses, Zanotti bought his own shoe factory in the 1990s and began producing the sexy stiletto heels, bejeweled booties, silvery sneakers, and strappy sandals that have made him a favorite among celebs (guess who makes Lady Gaga's mile-high, heel-less platform wedges) and trendsetters worldwide. In addition to women's shoes, Zanotti also designs the men's label Giuseppe Homme and accessories ranging from precious-metal jewelry and studded purses to crystal-accented iPhone covers and leather iPad cases.

Ding! Ding! Ding! It's round two
hundred for Real Housewives of New York frenemies Jill Zarin and Ramona Singer.
Season four of the show has finished airing, capped off by three hours worth of hateful and hostile reunion footage. While these two ladies are schooled in the art of cat fighting, especially with each other, things got even more heated during the reunion when Ramona's love affair with Pinot Grigio was addressed. In the aftermath of both ladies' allegations of alcoholism, the women continue to speak about their feelings. And speak about their feelings. And speak about their feelings.
In an interview with People, Jill says she was hoping to help her friend (sure, we all buy that) by accusing Ramona of having a problem. "During the reunion, [Ramona was] hitting below the belt. I tried to be a friend to Ramona. And I thought that she was acting a little bit erratic, more so than before. I was trying to help her and point it out. A lot of times people who have problems don't see it themselves. That's why there are interventions … I really wanted to try to help her. And instead she tried to turn it around on me." Cue the violins.
Jill is, of course, referring to the fact that Ramona called her out for being an alcoholic and going to AA. Jill contends, "Whether it is true or not, is irrelevant." She reiterates that she went to the meeting with a friend to show support, but is appalled that Ramona would out anyone for attending something that is supposed to be anonymous for a reason.
Jill hopes that Ramona's irresponsible statements won't deter others from getting help through Alcoholics Anonymous. Ironically enough, Jill has since seen an example of her worries on the subject. A fan of Jill's has reached out to her. Jill reveals, "The mother tells me the daughter is scared to go in the program because she's worried that a friend of hers might out her. It's destructive to people and the damage that [Ramona] caused is going to prevent people from getting help."
As for Ramona, she stated in her Bravo blog that she was embarrassed by the reunion show. "To say I was embarrassed by everyone's behavior on the reunion, including my own, would be an understatement," wrote Ramona. "Who would ever think that we are a group of educated, sophisticated, polished, New York women? This was not evident in what I watched. The reunion was mostly negative energy. I, myself, made a few comments that I am not proud of."
Jill however wants Ramona to make things right. Jill asserts, "She should really retract that and try to figure out how to go back out there and say, 'I'm sorry.' So will this deter Jill from
famewhoring filming another season of the show? She admits, "The damage is done. I don't know if I can film with these girls."
She may not have to, if recasting reports are true (oh please let them be true!). According to the Huffington Post, season five of New York is scheduled to begin filming around Labor Day, meaning that cast members must be secured ASAP. An unidentified Bravo housewife reveals, "No one knows at the moment who is in or out, but the second the contracts go to our representatives we all email and call each other immediately. So if someone does not get a letter we know within hours. All the cast will now be glued to their iPhones as they wait for the call from Bravo on whether they are being invited back."
Another housewife chimes in, adding, "What's happened with other casts in the franchise is offers go out to the women they want and those [they] don't do not hear a word. Technically no one gets fired they are just not invited back." Sounds a lot like sorority rush…no wonder the ladies seem so catty!
If the show is recast, the bigger question is whether it will be able to hold the viewers' attention. Former fans seem turned off by the ladies' negativity and mean girls mentalities. Ratings for the show took a nosedive from the first half of the reunion to the second half, plummeting from 2,325,000 viewers to 1,781,000 in a mere week. Numbers don't lie…and that can't be good.
And finally, Bravo's own Andy Cohen posted the following cryptic message on his facebook page yesterday morning: " " Wonder what that means?

Roger Brown's First & 10: Blue Hawks perched at the top of Power PollBY ROGER BROWN
New Hampshire Union Leader
November 19. 2012 10:49PM
WHO'S No. 1? Exeter, that's who.
Exeter received all eight first-place votes and finished first in the final Union Leader/WGIR/WMUR Power Poll, which was released Monday.
The Blue Hawks completed an 11-1 season by beating Pinkerton Academy, 31-21, in Saturday's Division I championship game. Pinkerton (10-2) entered that game ranked No. 2, behind Exeter.
"We worked hard all year and it paid off with a state championship," Exeter halfback/defensive back Tyler Grant said. "Then to be voted No. 1 in the poll - it's pretty amazing."
Exeter also beat Pinkerton in last year's Division I championship game, which was played in Derry. Saturday's contest was held at Exeter's Eustis Field.
"This one might have been sweeter because as seniors it was our last time playing on this field," Exeter linebacker/halfback Jamie Vogt said. "It's the ultimate feeling to go out on top, and it's obviously a big honor that people think we're the No. 1 team in the state and that we deserve to be on top of the Power Poll."
Ten of Exeter's 11 victories came by at least 10 points. The Blue Hawks scored more than 30 points in their final seven games, and outscored their opponents, 421-143.
The most impressive thing about this year's Exeter team may be how well it protected the football, however. The Blue Hawks had five turnovers (three fumbles) in 12 games.
"That truly is amazing," Pinkerton coach Brian O'Reilly said after Saturday's game. "Give them credit."
"That's our No. 1 goal here," added Exeter quarterback Ethan Joyce. "You can't score without the ball."
Winnacunnet, which beat Bedford 21-13 in Saturday's Division II championship game, finished No. 2 in the poll, even though it posted an 11-1 record and handed Exeter its only loss (24-21).
Winnacunnet's only setback came at Keene. The Warriors played without head coach Ron Auffant that night. Auffant was serving a one-game suspension for violating the NHIAA rule about commenting on game officials.
"We both won state championships and they did beat us, so I could see where they're coming from if they think they deserve to be No. 1," Vogt added. "I think they have an argument."
Bedford, which moved from Division III to Division II after the 2011 season, remained No. 4 despite Saturday's loss.
Portsmouth moved up from eighth to sixth after it beat Goffstown, 54-27, in the Division III championship game. It's the second consecutive year the Clippers have won the Division III title as the No. 4 seed.
Goffstown dropped from No. 9 to No. 10 following the loss.
Division IV champion Plymouth (12-0) finished No. 7. The Bobcats completed the year as the only unbeaten team in the state, and are the only team in the top 10 that doesn't compete in Division I, Division II or Division III.
Three teams in the poll will play on Thanksgiving: No. 6 Portsmouth will meet Dover in Portsmouth; No. 8 Nashua South will face Nashua North at Stellos Stadium; and No. 9 Souhegan will play at Merrimack.
Bishop Guertin was the only team that fell out of the poll. Souhegan replaced BG, even though neither team played last weekend. BG's season ended with a loss to Winnacunnet in the Division II semifinals, and Souhegan was eliminated following a loss to Goffstown in the Division III semifinals.

But, in other words no.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=127048\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
The 'problem' is often the user, not LR.'s curves.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=127598\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
Well what I wasn't liking was the method of altering the curves - the interface itself. I don't know how that makes me the problem.In any case it's pretty lame to blame the user when they're having trouble with a piece of software.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=127603\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
Are you seriously telling me I'm wrong for preferring an interface I've used for years? That it's my problem for not understanding the LR workflow and the role of curves in it?For fuck's sake, this conversation was already over before you decided to jump in with this bullshit.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=127614\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
Adobe spends what, the last 10 years having us do curves one way in Photoshop? We learn it and get accustomed and proficient with one way, then all of a sudden they expect us all to fall in love with parametric sliders? Sorry, I like the old way, the ability to ctrl/cmd-click a point onto the curve and adjust it. IMO, many improvements aren't...

Why are you even here? Did I insult your favorite new toy or something?[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=127621\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
I don't take kindly to self-important assholes telling me my *opinion* is wrong and implying I'm somehow stupid or ignorant for having it. I'll not be editing my posts or apologizing to anyone.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=127629\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]

Marvel Comics has always been home to some of the most famous villains in recent movie history, from Magneto to Doctor Doom to Loki. But as we've moved deeply into the next phase of comic book movies, the lesser and more obscure bad guys are starting to come out of the woodwork. In the past year alone, the big screen has seen the likes of Coldblood, the Collector and Malekith The Accursed, and this Friday's Captain America: The Winter Soldier opens with the early menace of Batroc The Leaper. These are some serious deep cut characters, ones that not even nerds could spot in a lineup.
But Marvel still has a bevy of great baddies that haven't popped up in movie form quite yet. And with the multi-tiered Avengers mythology, the growing Spider-Man universe and the worlds of X-Men and Fantastic Four, there's reason to believe some of Marvel's evil heavy hitters are coming right up. Neglecting the villains who have already been announced for future Marvel films (including the likes of Ultron), we've assembled a group of ten of Marvel's most beloved baddies that have yet to hit the screen.
Fin Fang FoomWho Is He? Fin Fang Foom is an ancient alien dragon from before mankind's era, one who wakes ready to destroy. And sometimes, he talks.
Where Would He Fit? Imagery featuring the character was shown in both the first and third Iron Man movies, and Tony Stark did battle with the beast in the animated The Invincible Iron Man, fulfilling his common association with the villainous Mandarin. But as a mystical being, he could easily throw down with the God of Thunder in a third Thor, perhaps requiring the Asgardian legend to re-team with Avengers cohort the Hulk.

AstroDay Festival celebrates 12th anniversary in HiloUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
Media Contact, Institute for Astronomy
Gary Fujihara (IfA Hilo), 1-808-640-9161
Science Education and Public Outreach Officer, Institute for Astronomy
The 12th Annual AstroDay Festival will return to the Prince Kuhio Plaza in Hilo on Saturday, May 4, 2013, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The event will showcase interactive exhibits and displays featuring astronomy/space science, geology, volcanology, invasive species, and robotics throughout the mall. Live Hawaiian contemporary music will be performed by notable local talents Keoki Kahumoku, John Keawe, Rupert Tripp, Jr, UHH Jazz Ensemble, and the Puna Taiko Drum group.
AstroDay Festival is Hilo, Hawaiʻi's version of the National Astronomy Day event. Created in 2002, it has grown to become one of the largest events of its kind in the world and has earned national recognition each year, including the Astronomy Day of the Year award in 2002 and 2007.
AstroDay Festival is a celebration of astronomy and Hawaiian culture, with a mission to educate the public on the cultural significance and scientific importance of Mauna Kea — and to help bridge the two through commonality such as Polynesian wayfinding.
"Wayfinders were explorers of their day, discovering new islands in the midst of a vast ocean using their eyes as instruments," said event coordinators. "Today's astronomers are explorers, too, discovering new vistas in the universe using telescopes and detectors as instruments."
AstroDay is supported by the UH Mānoa Institute for Astronomy, Subaru Telescope and the Mauna Kea Astronomy Outreach Committee.
The AstroDay Festival is a great opportunity for a shared learning experience for the whole 'ʻohana. Admission is free and open to the public. For more information, call (808) 640-9161 (Hilo), email firstname.lastname@example.com or visit http://www.astroday.net.

Gregory S. Hospodor: The Battle of Shiloh
In April 1862 a Union force under Ulysses S. Grant and a Confederate army led by Albert Sidney Johnston clashed in southwestern Tennessee in the Battle of Shiloh. Precisely 150 years later, military historian Gregory S. Hospodor discusses what was to that point the bloodiest fighting of the Civil War and explains how it brought home to both sides the grim reality of the conflict.
Hospodor is an associate professor of military history at the United States Army Command and General Staff College, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, where he was named teacher of the year for 2011.

West Alabama Narcotics agents have arrested nearly 30 University of Alabama students for marijuana and drug possession charges today. According to jail records, 29 young men who appear to be in their early 20s were charged with marijuana possession, distribution of a controlled substance or possession of drug paraphernalia on Tuesday.
Authorities have arrested 99 people in what they say is the biggest drug bust in the city's history.
A two-month undercover operation centered on the University of Alabama campus netted dozens of students and others who face 183 charges. Seventy-four people were arrested in a massive sweep that began at 4 a.m. this morning. The other 25 were arrested earlier this year.
Confidential informants helped investigators with the West Alabama Narcotics Task Force, said Tuscaloosa Police Chief Steve Anderson.
The vast majority of arrests involved the sale or possession of marijuana.
"I know a lot of people consider it to be a harmless drug," Anderson said. "It's still illegal to possess it, distribute and traffic it in the state of Alabama. Therefore, it's against the law and we're going to enforce the law no matter how harmless people think it is."
Small amounts of cocaine, LSD, prescription pills and ecstasy were also bought and sold. Officers seized three guns and thousands of dollars during their round-up of arrests.
The majority of those arrested are college students, Anderson said. According to jail logs, most were between 18 and 20 years old and lived on or near the University of Alabama campus.
The UA students who were arrested will be referred to Judicial Affairs, said university spokeswoman Cathy Andreen.
"Once judicial reviews are completed, students will receive sanctions up to and including expulsion," she said.
Anderson said that the confidential informants made buys at different areas on campus, including residence halls.
Most of the bail bondsman who work in Tuscaloosa County were at the jail today, conducting business in the parking lot after the lobby became full.
