LOS ANGELES (AP) — Circus animals and space beasts have lifted Hollywood to a huge weekend.
The cuddly critters of "Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted" led the weekend with a $60.4 million debut domestically, followed by a big opening for Ridley Scott's alien saga "Prometheus" at No. 2 with $50 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.
DreamWorks Animation's "Madagascar 3" was the family favorite for the weekend, reuniting voice stars Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Jada Pinkett Smith and David Schwimmer as the zoo animals continue their travels by joining a circus.
"Madagascar 3" outdid the $47.2 million debut of the 2005 original, though it came in behind the $63.1 million opening of the first sequel, 2008's "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa." "Europe's Most Wanted" had the added benefit of today's higher ticket prices and a bump from fans who caught 3-D shows, which cost a few dollars more than 2-D screenings.
Still, fans remain loyal to the franchise, and "Madagascar 3" received generally better reviews than the previous two installments.
"It's the beloved characters and their comic adventures. And 'Madagascar 3' is critically the best-reviewed of the franchise. Both audiences and critics really love this one the most," said Anne Globe, head of marketing for DreamWorks Animation.
"Madagascar 3" also took in $75.5 million internationally for a worldwide debut of $135.9 million.
"Prometheus," from 20th Century Fox, stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender and Charlize Theron in an offshoot of director's Scott's 1979 sci-fi horror tale "Alien." "Prometheus" did big business despite an R rating, which can limit a movie's audience since fans under 17 must see it with an adult.
Conventional wisdom is that action films should come in with a PG-13 rating to cast the widest net possible for its audience.
"A $50 million weekend disproves that rule, for sure," said Chris Aronson, head of distribution for 20th Century Fox. "This movie is so special. It's visually stunning, great storytelling as Ridley is known for. It's Ridley Scott's vision. I'm an unabashed fan of the movie, and the performance at the box office bears that out."
The movie added $39.2 million overseas, bringing its international total to $91.5 million and its worldwide take to $141.5 million since it began rolling out in some markets a week earlier.
The one-two punch of "Madagascar 3" and "Prometheus" lifted Hollywood out of an early dip in summer-season revenue. After three-straight weekends of declining receipts, domestic business totaled $177 million, up 29 percent from the same weekend last year, when "Super 8" led with $35.5 million, according to box-office tracker Hollywood.com.
"It has to do with the variety of movies in the marketplace," said Hollywood.com analyst Paul Dergarabedian. "This is a perfectly programmed summer weekend with a PG-rated animated family film combined with an R-rated, intense sci-fi movie."
The previous weekend's top draw, Universal's "Snow White & the Huntsman," slipped to third-place with $23 million, raising its domestic total to $98.5 million.
Sony's "Men in Black 3" finished fourth with $13.5 million, putting its domestic receipts at $135.5 million.
The superhero smash "The Avengers," from Disney's Marvel Studios, was No. 5 with $10.8 million, lifting its domestic total to $571.9 million. The year's top-grossing film, "The Avengers" added $7.8 million overseas, raising its international haul to $824.4 million and its worldwide revenue to just under $1.4 billion.
Lionsgate's "The Hunger Games," No. 2 on this year's box-office chart, took in $1.1 million to cross the $400 million mark. Its domestic total stands at $400.3 million, and the film has taken in nearly $650 million worldwide.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com. Where available, latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic figures will be released Monday.
1. "Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted," $60.4 million ($75.5 million).
2. "Prometheus," $50 million ($39.2 million international).
3. "Snow White & the Huntsman," $23 million ($24.6 million international).
4. "Men in Black 3," $13.5 million ($38.3 million international).
5. "The Avengers," $10.8 million ($7.8 million international).
6. "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel," $3.2 million.
7. "What to Expect When You're Expecting," $2.7 million.
8. "Battleship," $2.3 million.
9. "The Dictator," $2.2 million ($4.9 million international).
10. "Moonrise Kingdom," $1.6 million.

Hope you approve of the graphic! Maybe that is worth a stub or submission credit for Guild entrance?
I am working on dwarven submission, but I am torn. I feel like I should write something simple without a lot of prose. Something that will get three votes and hang at about 3.3. Perhaps something a little offensive so it will get some discussion going. The current climate of voting here seems to favor simple items or pieces with an easily accessible structure. For example 30 lists, items, 500 word character descriptions and so. These are thing you can a have quick response to and move on, in that sense they are more interactive. The guild requirements are actually making me think, "How will this play at the Citadel" But I say.............No............I am not going after the guild by writing something about dwarves I would written anyway, I upping the bets here.

(Q) Why use bicarbonate soda media?
(A) Soda will not harm glass, plastics, fiberglass or chrome surfaces. It's used to remove paint coatings from the vehicle surface without etching the surface or warping the metal like more aggressive media would. It's the best way to strip fiberglass Corvettes, boats or aftermarket hoods. Also used to remove paint from urethane and SMC-type bumper fascias.
(Q) Can this unit be used with more aggressive media?
(A) Yes, this unit can be converted to blast standard abrasive medias such as crushed glass, aluminum oxide, etc. by using the abrasive kit included.
Bicarbonate soda blasting is much safer than traditional abrasives, and more gentle to the metal or substrate you're blasting. However, you must still protect yourself from the dust and, more importantly, the particles of paint, corrosion or scale that become airborne during the blasting operation.
Use a properly fitted dust mask or respirator, safety glass or safety shield, plus heavy gloves, long pants and a long-sleeve shirt to protect exposed skin. Use our 50097 Soda-Blasting Protection Kit for complete protection.
Do not aim the nozzle anywhere other than the substrate you are blasting.
Make sure you disconnect the air line and allow the tank to bleed pressure before opening the fill cap.
Check the condition of the nozzle after every hour of blasting and replace once wear is visible or the blast stream becomes ineffective.
Before each use, inspect the tank for any signs of corrosion. Make sure the rubber hoses are not dry-rotted, cracked, split or show any other signs of wear or abrasion from use or storage. Do not use the unit until damage components are repaired. Call Eastwood at 800-544-5118 for replacement components.
Make sure the deadman valve is operating properly by depressing the valve lever and releasing; it must close over the nozzle under its own spring pressure. If not, do not use the deadman valve until the spring or obstruction is repaired.
Only use fresh Eastwood-brand Bicarbonate Soda Media to assure trouble-free blasting and quick paint removal.
1-year mfr's. warranty against defects.
All replacement parts available through Eastwood.

Giuliana Rancic and Bill Rancic 'Adore' Their Surrogate
"She is giving us the greatest gift we're ever getting in our lives," Giuliana tells PEOPLE
Giuliana and Bill Rancic are thrilled that they are finally going to become parents – and they've bonded with the woman who is making their dreams come true.
The couple, who have documented their struggle to have a child, announced Monday that they're expecting a baby with the help of a gestational carrier.
"She is giving us the greatest gift we're ever getting in our lives," Giuliana, 37, tells PEOPLE of the woman whose identity has not been revealed. "She's so selflessly helping make our dream a reality. We adore her."
Asked if they plan to stay in touch with the woman once their child is born, Bill, 40, says, "That will be up to her, but we are very grateful for what she's done for us and we intend to maintain a relationship with her."
RELATED: Bill and Giuliana: The Moment We Found Out We'd Be Parents
The couple admit they were nervous about picking a surrogate before they met the woman they chose – but they clicked with her immediately.
"Once we met her it was an instinct we had," says Giuliana. "We could tell she was a great person."
And the couple are involved in every step of the pregnancy, including attending regular doctors visits.
"It's important to us to see the development and growth," says Bill. "At the end of the day, it's our baby. Genetically it's ours. It's our embryo. We feel very connected."
For now the parents-to-be are relishing keeping their baby's gender a secret – but they may not be able to keep it for the duration of the pregnancy.
"When you do a reality show and host shows, it's hard to have secrets. Its nice to be able to have something that only the two of us know for now," says Giuliana. "Eventually we may tell."

[[fi:Eärnil II]]
Revision as of 01:01, 24 September 2008
Template:Royalty infobox Eärnil II (Third Age 1928 – 2043, aged 115 years) was elected as the thirty-second King of Gondor after his predecessor, King Ondoher, was slain in battle. In the previous year a two-pronged attack had been launched upon Gondor by the Haradrim and the Wainriders. In response, King Ondoher led the main army north to counter the Easterling invasion at Dagorlad and was defeated. Eärnil was commander of Gondor's southern army and guarded Pelargir. Eärnil led his army to the Crossings of the Poros were he won a astounding victory over the Haradrim. This enabled him to turn his attention to the invading Wainriders. The Wainriders, certain of victory, were celebrating their success before they would enter Minas Anor. They were unaware of Eärnil's victory in the south and were taken by surprise when Eärnil suddenly attacked them. As a result Eärnil won the Battle of the Camp.
After the threat was eliminated Gondor's attention shifted towards Steward Pelendur and the Council of Gondor, for King Ondoher along with his two sons were slain at Dagorlad. Both he and prince Arvedui of Arthedain (sucessor state of Arnor) claimed the throne. Arvedui based his claim on that he was the direct descendant of Isildur (second High King of Arnor and Gondor and uncle to Meneldil first King of Gondor), and as the husband of Fíriel, only surviving child of King Ondoher. but Eärnil was elected king for his deeds, heritage, and because the Steward, Pelendur, claimed that "The crown and royalty of Gondor belongs solely to the heirs of Meneldil, son of Anárion, to whom Isildur relinquished this realm. In Gondor this heritage is reckoned through the sons only; and we have not heard that the law is otherwise in Arnor." He reigned as Eärnil II.
Aside from being a gifted general Eärnil also was a wise ruler. He sent messages to Arvedui announcing that he received the crown of Gondor, according to the laws and theneeds of the South-kingdom, "but I do not forget the royalty of Arnor, nor deny our kinship, nor wish that the realms of Elendil be estranged. I will send to your aid when you have need, so far as I am able." And at last in the autumn of 1973, messages came to Gondor that Arthedain was in great trouble, and that the Witch-king of Angmar was preparing a final stroke against it. Then Eärnil sent his son Eärnur north with a fleet, as swiftly as he coud, and with as great a strength as he could spare to aid Arvedui (now king). Eärnur arrived too late to save Arthedain and Arvedui who had fled north (and was drowned in the Icebay of Forochel) but manage to defeated the witch-kingdom of Angmar in the Battle of Fornostwith the help of Círdan Lord of Lindon and Glorfindel with an army from Rivendell. There Eärnur earned the hatred of the Witch-king.
However, Eärnil was not able to withstand the takeover of Minas Ithil by the Ringwraiths. Minas Anor was renamed Minas Tirith ("Tower of the Guard") and Minas Ithil was called Minas Morgul ("Tower of Sorcery").
Eärnil died in 2043 Third Age and was succeeded by his son Eärnur, who was as good a general as his father but lacked his wisdom.

Kevin Reese (Ronkonkoma, NY) knocked in two runs on a single and then reached home on a passed ball in the fifth. Five hits in the seventh put the lead to 10-1.
In the eighth inning, the Rams were able to bring in one more run as freshman John Anarumo (Levittown, NY/MacArthur) scored off of sophomore Luis Feliciano's (Bronx, NY/Park West) single.

Three Heads are Better than One
Historians have long pointed to lack of cooperation between state governors and the central government in Richmond as one of the principal reasons for the defeat of the Confederacy. Added to that problem was contention between many of the governors about how best to wage the war. Since bad news sells better than good news, instances of cooperation between Confederate governors or between the governors and Richmond are less well known. One such episode occurred in Florida in November 1862, when the Confederate government agreed to support the creation of a new military department to strengthen the defense of the tri-state region bordered by Alabama, Florida and Georgia.
Florida Governor John Milton conceived the idea of the tri-state military district. In doing so, Milton acted on his long-held belief that the Apalachicola River was the most promising avenue for a Union invasion of Florida. He feared that Union capture of the port of Apalachicola and an advance up the river would allow the Yankees to capture and destroy the rich cotton fields of Gadsden and Jackson counties—Jackson was also Milton's home county—before proceeding to the tri-state border, where the Apalachicola meets the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers flowing down from Georgia and Alabama, respectively. Union forces could then push on to Columbus, Georgia, the Chattahoochee's most important port and one of the Confederacy's few industrial centers. Milton hoped that a tri-state military department providing for the defense of portions of West and Middle Florida, southeast Alabama, and southwest Georgia would enable him to call on the bordering states for troops to help defend Florida, where only a small number of Confederate troops remained after the spring of 1862.
Milton first proposed the tri-state defense department in a letter to Jefferson Davis as early as October 29, 1861, barely more than three weeks after becoming governor. At the same time, he wrote to Governor Joseph E. Brown of Georgia and Governor A. B. Moore of Alabama requesting their support for the idea. At that time, his fellow governors were not enthusiastic—they did not see the need for such a department—and Davis passed on Milton's proposal to the Confederate War Department, which ignored Milton's request. A year later, however, Brown and Alabama's governor John Gill Shorter were more receptive. They realized that with Florida's denuded defenses their states were more vulnerable to attack from the south. In addition, both states had invested heavily in salt production along Florida's Gulf Coast. Thousands of Georgians and Alabamians were producing salt in Florida and their citizens, along with the rest of the Confederacy, depended on the vital supply of salt from Milton's state.
In October 1862, Milton again asked President Davis to support the tri-state department. This time he agreed. Davis may have changed his mind due to Milton's loyal support for the unpopular conscription law, which Davis had pushed the Confederate Congress to pass in April 1862. Assured of Davis' backing, Milton, Brown and Shorter submitted a formal request for the creation of the department to Davis on November 11, 1862. The governors' proposal placed the following counties within the department: Henry, Dale, Barbour, Russell, Covington, Coffee, and Pike in Alabama; Decatur, Thomas, Miller, Early, Baker, Clay, Calhoun, Randolph, Quitman, Stewart, Muscogee, Chattahoochee, Mitchell, and Dougherty in Georgia; and Leon, Gadsden, Wakulla, Jefferson, Madison, Liberty, Washington, Jackson, Calhoun, and Franklin in Florida.
Despite Davis' initial support, Milton again ran into difficulties with the Confederate War Department. They did, however, split the Department of Middle and East Florida into two districts: the District of Middle Florida, covering the area between the Choctawhatchee and Suwannee rivers; and the District of East Florida, which consisted of the rest of Florida east of the Suwannee River. Milton also failed to get Richmond's approval to incorporate the Alabama counties into the new defensive arrangement. The Confederate army's adjutant and inspector general, General Samuel Cooper, informed Milton that since the Alabama counties fell outside the Department of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, those counties could not be part of the new Florida district. Fortunately for Milton, Cooper agreed that the Georgia counties could be under the new District of Middle Florida. Milton had finally gotten Richmond to take notice of the Apalachicola region, even though Florida would remain at the bottom of the Confederate government's defensive priorities.

Restaurant serves soul food
A new restaurant is opening to help revitalize a neighborhood.
Grand Rapids' Madison Square neighborhood will see a new restaurant open on Monday, thanks to the nonprofit LINC Community Revitalization.
Soul food
LINC Up Soul Food Café will open its doors at LINC's Development Center, at 1167 Madison Ave. SE.
Local vendors will provide many of the products for the café's dishes.
The café's menu is being described by LINC as a "healthier ethnic fusion of traditional country staples with urban appeal."
"LINC is always working towards the revitalization of our communities, and buying local is just another way that we can achieve that goal," said Darel Ross, LINC co-executive director.
Hourly wage
As part of LINC's "Buy Local, Hire Local" initiative, the café will be staffed with nine local residents.
"LINC is proud to support our community and neighborhoods by hiring local residents," said Darel Ross, LINC co-executive director. "But what we are even more proud of is that the café will be paying these individuals above the industry standard, at more than $2 over the hourly rate, plus tips. This extra money will give these individuals the opportunity to invest in themselves and their communities."

I'll admit it, it's been nearly a month since I covered the Kisai Optical Illusion watch and I still can't read the damn thing (it's a schooner, I'm told). But Kisai's latest user-submitted design is actually quite easy to interpret—hint: it isn't Morse code.
Dubbed the Stencil LCD Watch, it features a two-color LED display in ten color variations with either a black or white band. The watch offers the standard fare of time, date, alarm and backlight functionality. Kisai has discounted it to $100 for the next 45 hours, then the price bumps up to $140. Just like the Optical Illusion, the Stencil LCD also started as a concept on the Tokyoflash Design Studio Blog. [Tokyoflash via OhGizmo]

Reject Clinton's Dirty Campaign
This clearly was a cheap shot, appealing to the prejudices some white people harbor; that many Blacks are natural born drug dealers and criminals.
[Black Star News Editorial]
Who will be the best president from Day One from the moment the president is sworn in?
Who will be able to handle the Republican attack machine?
Senator Hillary Clinton posed these questions to an audience of supporters in New Hampshire this morning, hours after her defeat to Senator Barack Obama who won 38% to her 29% in the Iowa Caucuses last night.
Sen. Clinton is still continuing her attack campaign rather than focusing on the issues.
Her questions to her audience are misguided. She cannot know who will be the better president on "Day One." No one can.
Americans want to vote for the person who will be the best president for the entire presidential term. Sen. Clinton is still insinuating that she is the more "experienced" candidate relative to Obama, by posing the first question. Voters in Iowa preferred a "change" agent over "experience" which to many suggests "business as usual." Voters in New Hampshire next Tuesday could make a similar statement.
The second question goes back to issues we have discussed in two editorials in this newspaper. We have castigated the Clinton campaign for bringing in Obama's race and his grandmother's Islamic religion into the contest in a dastardly and sneaky manner. A Clinton campaign manager claimed the Republicans, because Obama had admitted to the use of illegal drugs during his youth, would also want to know whether he had been a drug dealer. This clearly was a cheap shot, appealing to the prejudices some white people harbor; that many Blacks are natural born drug dealers and criminals.
Shortly after that calumny, a university president that endorsed Clinton said while she was a better candidate than her rival, Obama could still be useful—reaching out to Black youth and Muslims around the world.
At the time of those early attacks, we wrote that it was hard for us to believe it was the work of Clinton rogue campaign officials without her knowledge. By continuing to bring up the Republican specter Sen. Clinton has answered the question. She was behind the dirty tricks.
Sen. Obama has said: "We are one nation; we are one people; and our time for change has come."
Candidates must compete on the issues and on whether they have the best program or plan. Any one appealing to base instincts must be rejected. We hope that the 60% undecided voters in New Hampshire will come to this same conclusion.

Sully took my breath away. I was rendered speechless by Chesley Sullenberger's humanly impossible act, unbeatable acumen, extraordinary decision making and his unrivalled acuity that saw him through. How humbly does he put it?
"I was just doing my job."
The gargantuan magnitude of the paranoia that engulfed him in those split seconds of life and death, the way he came out of it, a victor, it is something that you can never forget. A feat that is so rare in our mundane that you can't help but call him a real life superhero.
What Chesley Sullenberger accomplished on January 15th 2009 was simply incomprehensible. One could only shudder at the thought of having lived the horror firsthand, that too from the nose of death itself. One wrong move and you are talking head-on with it. Sully managed to land the plane to save every single soul onboard. All 155 of them! That just leaves your jaw wide open.
Clint Eastwood's biopic does in every way justice to Sully's magnanimous nature. Caught between a trillion could-haves and aftermath-thoughts, Sully hasn't even yet recovered from the shocker that shook him up good, that we have dour faces knocking at his door. The unfeeling NTSB board begins pressing up hard trying to prove his human error. Their unvarying attempt is to disprove the choice Sully made when he decided to land US Airways Flight 1549 on Hudson River.
The movie rides to and fro showing us different timelines through Sully's recalling. What it also does is try to depict us the real incident from different vantages. The fact that it is exhilarating to watch every single time even though from different pedestals, makes you marvel at Sully's heroism even more.
If there was an actor who could have done Chesley Sulley Sullenberger justice, it was none other than Tom Hanks himself. The constant apprehension in his eyes as he tries to put meaning into things is havocing.
There is this moment where he is worried about the numbers, the count, whether everybody made it safe, and is asked:
"How are you?"
To that he replies:
"I will answer that question when we have counted 155."
That flicker of doubt or that tumult of incredulity when he gets to know he has saved all 155 souls aboard on the plane, is literally going to melt you. He stays in a perfect aura of agitation as he talks to her wife to tell her he is fine.
There is this expressive impassioned face that he puts on as the world showers him in a tub of adulation, but he is polite enough to refuse. There are so many times that he apologizes at odd hours that you can't overlook how civil and deferential amidst all of it.
Sully's final lines will tell you how modest he stays in reality, not taking the credit of having pulled off the landing. He shares his accolade with the people who were on board and those who rushed to rescue when he hit the waters.
Even though chopping off frames to time-travel us toward memories from the past was a tad baffling, it worked nevertheless. If it weren't for the music that rang up Sully's head, it would have been hard to guess for some which timeline one was in.
Clint Eastwood nevertheless remains one of the most thoughtful directors of our time. The way he glides alongside the plane to show minuscule details about the sojourn that went kaput is worth commendable. He makes even conversations riveting.
Todd Komarnicki's screenplay ices it up with witty one liners, most of them escaping the mouth of Jeff Skiles played by Aaron Eckhart. Talks with Laura Linney are directed to make you feel good. She does a fine Lorraine Sullenberger.
The most satisfying moment in the movie is when Sully proves NTSB wrong. All that colossal turmoil in Sully's eyes vanishes in a jiffy. For the first time you see those clouds of doubt disappear for good. He takes a short break just to talk to Skiles to tell him how proud he feels; how relieved he was of his decision to land 1549 on Hudson.
If we focus on other crucial movie moments, there are many actually. The movie shows how when people are hit by a conundrum they react differently. One of those survivors thought he could swim all the way in the freezing cold towards the land. Whilst there was one lady who thought it was a gas leakage, and that the Jet might explode, and so she jumps into the water panicking.
It goes without saying that those lives he saved will stay indebted to him forever. Whilst there are people who are decimating lives, we have this silent modest hero at one end, who is concerned about saving them all. You can't applaud Chesley Sullenberger enough.
Stories need to be told. I am glad I got to know about Sully through such a beautiful movie.
Check out the trailer of Sully here:

It's time for another Christmas Open House. We've added a few little treasures. Let's start outside. We love how our wreath looks on our new, red door.
Next, let's walk though the entryway. We had too many ornaments for our tree that we had to place them on garland and houseplants throughout the house.
You might be able to tell from my Halloween Open House that we are big Charlie Brown fans here at the Grow house. Introducing our newest "nativity."
Let's make a quick stop in the kitchen. Up until now I hadn't made a bunting for the kitchen window so this is what we have (until tomorrow.)
Of course all of the kitchen cabinets are festive. This is Santa standing in front of our glassware. He is our favorite Santa because he is was my Gramma's. He's actually a piggy bank.
Speaking of gingerbread, this is the new bunting that I created to go over the kitchen window. I designed it myself. There are three boys and three girls.
Now, let's have a little look at the snow village.
Finally, our tree.Have a very Merry Christmas. Thanks for stopping by my blog today.

By Kevin Murphy
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct 10 (Reuters) - U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri released new ads on Wednesday attacking Republican challenger Todd Akin's views on emergency contraception and his comments that women can naturally fend off pregnancies caused by "legitimate rape."
The commercials, featuring interviews with two rape victims and one survivor of a violent sexual assault, were posted on McCaskill's campaign website and began airing on television on Wednesday.
The ads mark McCaskill's most aggressive effort to highlight the comments Akin made in August about "legitimate rape," which thrust their pivotal U.S. Senate race into the national spotlight. At the time, Akin said women have a biological defense against pregnancies that might be caused by such rapes. He later retracted the comment and apologized, but refused to leave the race.
Akin, a six-term congressman, said earlier in August he opposed the so-called morning-after contraception pill, calling it a form of abortion. He made no exception for rape victims.
In the new commercials, a woman who was violently sexually assaulted said Akin "showed his true colors" in alluding to "legitimate rapes." She said that as a woman of faith she could forgive Akin, but as a voter could not forget what he said.
Another woman raped during a home invasion said she took emergency contraception, which Akin "would criminalize." She said "at the worst moment of her life, no woman should be denied that choice."
Another woman, who identified herself as a pro-life Republican and a rape victim, said she declined to take the emergency contraception pill but that the decision should remain hers, not anyone else's.
Akin spokesman Ryan Hite said on Wednesday that Akin was on record opposing the morning-after pill. But Hite said he had not "delved into" Akin's position in the case of rape and could not comment further.
McCaskill spokeswoman Caitlin Legacki said opposing emergency contraception for rape victims "is so far to the extreme and is really troubling for Missouri."
On Wednesday, Akin took the offensive against McCaskill on the subject of tax returns. He called for the release of the past five years of tax returns filed by her and her husband. So far McCaskill has released only her own, most recent tax return.
Akin has not released any returns, but would do so if McCaskill released the past five years of tax returns, Hite said.

Being someone who loves winter, but is stubborn to change from my uniform of shorts and skirts to winter clothing, finding a gem like Simons brand clothing for winter is awesome!
Below I have shared some of my favourite trends for the winter season, all from Simons!
You can never go wrong with a hooded parka--it's basically a staple! I'm also really loving the interesting lines on the all black coat--simple colour, but the design really makes it stand out!
Baggy drop-crotch pants are a huge obsession I have right now--I don't know who loves them more: Me, or my boyfriend! Tartan has also always been a winter favourite of mine.
Well, what about you? What are you favourite winter trends? What do you think you'll be purchasing, this season?
Thanks as always for reading!

Madonna for Interview Magazine
Madonna Is Ready to Come Back Strong
Madonna looks ready to kick some ass in April's Interview! The almost 50-year-old pop icon is showing off her super-toned body while sporting some sexy boxing gear. She is about to hit the promo road for her new album, Hard Candy, and we can't wait to get our hands on it. In the article, M talks about her kids, working with JT, and her thoughts on freedom. Here are highlights:
- On working with Justin: "I really enjoy writing with Justin . . . We had psychoanalytic sessions whenever we wrote songs first. We'd sit down and we'd start talking about situations. And then we'd start talking about issues or problems or relationships with people. That was the only way, because you know, writing together with somebody is very intimate . . . that was fun, because he's open and he's got talent. He's a songwriter. I haven't worked with a lot of songwriters where I'm instantly connected and start riffing and playing with the rhythm of the words. He's as interested in the rhythm of the words as the meaning of the words."
- On freedom: "Freedom is a funny word because when we think we're free, we're not really. I think freedom is quite illusory . . . When I stop thinking about myself all the time and put other people before me on a regular basis, that's real freedom. When I can love unconditionally . . . then that's real freedom. So it's something to strive for, but I'm not free."
To see what she had to say about her kids, just read more
- On bringing Lourdes to Malawi: "She spent several weeks working in the orphanages, particularly one with newborn children, and most of them were HIV-positive. She so came into her own and was so responsible and stayed for eight hours every day and worked tirelessly. I thought, why am I babying her so much? She's capable of so much more. We don't let kids do anything. We think, Oh, they're kids — they can't take care of other kids; they can't do this; they can't do that. And after you go to Africa, you drop all that silliness."
- On adopting David: "He wouldn't have lived if I hadn't taken him. It's not even a possibility."
Sometimes it's still hard to believe that Madonna is both a pop legend and a full-time super-mom. This is one woman who continues to impress us year after year.

Heart disease is a general term that refers to a variety of acute and chronic medical conditions that affect one or more of the components of the heart. The heart is a muscular, fist-sized organ that is located in the centre of the chest cavity. It continuously pumps blood, beating as many as 100,000 times a day. The blood that the heart moves carries oxygen and nutrients throughout the body and transports carbon dioxide and other wastes to the lungs, kidneys and liver for removal. The heart ensures its own blood supply through a set of coronary arteries and veins. The heart is also an endocrine organ that produces the hormones atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and B-natriuretic peptide (BNP) which coordinate heart function with blood vessel and kidney function.
The heart is hollow. It is divided vertically into two halves by a septum, and each side of the heart has two internal chambers – an atrium on top and a ventricle on the bottom. Venous blood enters the right side of the heart through the right atrium and is pumped by the right ventricle to the lungs, where carbon dioxide is released and oxygen acquired. Oxygenated blood from the lungs is transported to the left atrium and is pumped by the left ventricle into arteries that carry it throughout the body. Four heart valves regulate the direction and flow of blood through the chambers of the heart. It is their opening and shutting that gives the heart beat its characteristic "lub-dub" sound. The heart muscle itself is called the myocardium. Lining the chambers of the heart and the valves is a membrane called the endocardium. Encasing the outside of the heart is the pericardium – a layered membrane that is fibrous on the outside and serous (fluid-secreting) on the inside. The pericardium forms a protective barrier around the heart and allows it to beat in a virtually friction free environment.
Diseases affecting the heart may be structural or functional. Anything that damages the heart or decreases the heart's supply of oxygen makes it less efficient, reduces its ability to fill and pump, and disrupts its coordinating relationship with blood vessels and the kidneys, so harming not only the heart but the rest of the body as well.

Nadal wins and Court honoured at Australian Open
At the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Iranian judoka Arash Miresmaeili was disqualified for weighing in at nearly four pounds above the limit for his weight class of his under-66 kilograms match against an Israeli opponent Ehud Vaks in the first round. It was claimed Miresmaeili had gone on an eating binge to protest the International Olympic Committee's recognition of the state of Israel. Iran does not recognise the state of Israel, and Miresmaeili's actions won praise from high-ranking Iranian officials. Mohammad Khatami, the country's President at the time, was quoted as saying Miresmaili's actions would be "recorded in the history of Iranian glories". He was later awarded $125,000 by the Government - the same amount given to Olympic gold medallists.

Harvard at St. Lawrence Highlights (Oct. 28, 2011)
Harvard at Clarkson Highlights (Oct. 29, 2011)
The Particulars
After a weekend off from action, the Harvard women's hockey team takes to the road for a pair of conference contests against Colgate and Cornell. This weekend marks the second consecutive trip to New York for the Crimson.
Series History
The Crimson has had the Raiders' number in the all-time series, as Harvard has captured 18 wins in the 21 games between the two teams for an 18-1-2 overall mark. Colgate's lone win in the series game during the 2006-07 season, and Harvard has won the last five meetings between the squads.
Harvard faced Colgate on the Raiders' home ice in just its second road game of the 2010-11 season, skating to a convincing 3-1 win. Colgate took a 1-0 lead thanks to a Jenna Klynstra goal at 12:33 of the first period, but Kate Buesser '11 responded with the tying tally at 12:30 of the second. Third-period goals from Kalley Armstrong and Leanna Coskren '11 went unanswered as the Crimson picked up its first road win of the season. The second meeting of the season was a landslide victory for the Crimson, as Harvard shut out the Raiders in a 7-0 pounding at Bright Hockey Center. Coskren had a pair of goals and Jillian Dempsey (Winthrop, Mass.) handed out four assists in the win.
Against Cornell, one of Harvard's longest-tenured rivals, the Crimson holds the lead in the all-time series with a 50-21-3 career mark. The Big Red has been tallying up marks in the win column in recent history, however, as the Crimson is winless against Cornell in its last five games, dating back to the 2008-09 season.
The Crimson traveled to Ithaca, N.Y. to kick off its 2010-11 road schedule and came away from Lynah Rink empty-handed, dropping a 3-0 decision to the Big Red. Cornell capitalized on two of its seven power-play chances and outshot the Crimson, 29-24, to remain perfect in ECAC action. It looked like more of the same in the teams' second meeting as a trio of first-period goals by the Big Red gave the visitors a commanding 3-0 lead after one. Josephine Pucci got the Crimson on the board in the second period, and Kate Buesser helped Harvard pull within one with another second-period score. A third-period power-play goal from Catherine White proved to be the game-winner as a late power-play tally from Jillian Dempsey wasn't enough and the Crimson dropped the 4-3 decision in its final game of the regular season.
Last Time Out
Harvard stormed out of the gate to start the 2011-12 campaign, completing its second sweep of St. Lawrence and Clarkson in its last three attempts.
The Crimson put on an offensive display in its season-opener against the Saints, netting seven unanswered goals after falling behind early to notch a 7-1 road win. Classmates Lyndsey Fry (Chandler, Ariz.) and Marissa Gedman (Framingham, Mass.) tallied three points each on the day, with Fry netting a pair of goals and Gedman dishing out a pair of assists. Jillian Dempsey also scored twice in the game, while Samantha Reber (Edina, Minn.) posted her first collegiate points with a goal and an assist.
Against Clarkson the following afternoon, a Josephine Pucci power-play goal gave Harvard the lead early in the second, but the Golden Knights tied it with just 35 seconds left in the middle stanza. A scoreless third pushed the game into overtime, and it was Gedman to the rescue, as the sophomore received a pass from rookie Michelle Picard (Taunton, Mass.) and fired true just 1:32 into the extra frame to seal the dramatic 2-1 victory.
COOP Athlete of the Week
For her efforts in the opening weekend, Marissa Gedman was named Harvard COOP Athlete of the Week for Oct. 31. She finished the weekend with 2-3-5 points and a +4 rating and backboned a Crimson defensive effort that only allowed two goals in the two games.
Pucci Please
With a pair of assists in the St. Lawrence game and a goal and an assist against Clarkson, Josephine Pucci extends her team-leading point streak to seven games, dating back to last season. The streak started with a goal in Harvard's 7-0 win over Colgate Feb. 18, 2011, and was highlighted by her three-assist night in an 8-3 blowout of St. Lawrence in the ECAC Quarterfinals Feb. 26. Pucci has goals in five of the seven games during the scoring stretch.
On The Road Again
Harvard begins its season with four-straight road contests for the first time since the 2002-03 season. That season got off to a hot start as well, as the Crimson went 3-1-0 in its first four games. Harvard topped Vermont (13-0), Dartmouth (9-2) and Minnesota Duluth (2-1) before dropping a 4-3 decision at Minnesota.
After downing St. Lawrence and Clarkson, two teams that were receiving votes in both major polls, the Crimson jumped up to No. 10 in both the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine and the USCHO.com polls.
Who's Missing?
Harvard will be without its head coach and a trio of players for the Colgate/Cornell weekend, due to the Four Nations Cup taking place in Nykoping, Sweden Nov. 9-13. Head coach Katey Stone, along with blueliners Josphine Pucci and Michelle Picard and forward Jillian Dempsey, will be with Team USA for the tournament.
Crimson, White and Blue
Aside from having Katey Stone as its coach, the U.S. Women's National Team has a number of familiar Harvard faces within its ranks. Three current members and two formers members of the Crimson are on the U.S. roster for the 2011 Four Nations Cup in Nykoping, Sweden in early November.
Pucci will be playing in her fourth tournament with the team, having earned a spot on the roster prior to the 2010 Four Nations Tournament. Dempsey will be making her second appearance with the team after debuting at the Twelve Nations Tournament this summer, and Picard will be making her debut with the U.S. National team. Veterans Julie Chu '06-07 and Caitlin Cahow '07-08 are also on the roster for the 2011 Four Nations Cup.
Fresh Faces
The 2011-12 Crimson boasts five freshmen on its roster: two forwards, two defensemen and a goalie. Hillary Crowe and Samantha Reber bolster the crew of Harvard forwards while Sarah Edney and Michelle Picard join the roster as blueliners. Tiana Press gives the Crimson a solid option in goal.
Harvard Coach Katey Stone
Katey Stone, the Landry Family Head Coach for Harvard Women's Hockey, is in her 18th season as Harvard's head coach, and she holds a 358-155-31 career record, the most all-time victories in Division I women's hockey. Stone has led Harvard to all eight of its NCAA tournament appearances and is the head coach of the U.S. Women's National Team.
Preseason Prognostications
The ECAC Hockey coaches picked Harvard second in their preseason poll, behind defending league champion Cornell.
Team (first-place votes) Points
1. Cornell (11) 121
2. Harvard 105
3. Quinnipiac (1) 93
4. Dartmouth 91

Crimson Captain
Leading the way for the Crimson as captain this season is the lone member of the class of 2012, Alisa Baumgartner. Josephine Pucci and Laura Bellamy have donned 'A's' on their jerseys as assistant captains this season.
First Things First
Over the past three seasons, Harvard is a combined 31-3-2 when scoring first and 8-15-7 when conceding the first goal. Harvard picked up wins against St. Lawrence and Clarkson Oct. 28-29, scoring first against the Golden Knights and conceding the first goal against the Saints. The Crimson was 13-1-0 last season when netting the first goal of the game.

During the worst economy since the Great Depression, credit unions did what banks wouldn't: They stood by their members and extended financial lifelines to those in need. They went the extra mile to help members in financial turmoil.
The worst of economic times tends to bring out the best in credit unions. The not-for-profit, cooperative business model was born in times of economic hardship. It still shines bright during dark days.
Credit unions returned nearly $6 billion to their communities in the form of lower interest rates, higher savings rates, and lower or fewer fees during the 12 months preceding Sept. 30, 2012, CUNA reports ("The benefits of membership," p. 30).
Their efforts reinforced what most in the industry already knew: What's good for members is also good for the bottom line. And what's good for members and credit unions is good for the entire community.
Difficult days
E.J. Donaghey, president/CEO of $270 million asset University of Illinois Employees Credit Union (UIECU) in Champaign, knew difficult days were coming to his community when the university announced sweeping furloughs in 2010 to address a budget shortfall.
"Unemployment was going up, banks weren't lending, and members were talking about it all in our lobby," Donaghey says. He knew the credit union had to respond to the pervasive media coverage about the poor economy and the university's financial woes and layoffs.
The first step was to compile a menu of existing products and services for members experiencing financial hardship. UIECU created a page on its website titled "Financial Relief" for these resources. It told members about these resources in emails, on its website (uiecu.org), and through newsletters and advertisements.
"Members don't always know where to look for this information," says Keon Conerly, assistant vice president of marketing and public relations. That's exactly why the credit union communicates its offerings in terms of problems and solutions rather than products and services.
Beyond the Financial Relief menu of products and services on its website, Donaghey says a critical component of its financial assistance is its willingness to align lending standards with its membership. In other words, the credit union accepts a higher level of risk to continue lending even as members' credit ratings declined.
"We felt the credit union needed to follow members' credit needs," he says.
"There was a time when banks weren't lending at all, or you had to have A or B credit to get a loan," adds Greg Anderson, chief operating officer. "We have different pricing for credit scores under 680, but we'll make the loan." Otherwise, members in dire straits might turn to predatory lenders or run up credit cards to pay bills, Anderson says.
Some financial institutions won't finance vehicles that are more than four years old or offer small, short-term loans to repair water heaters or furnaces. But UIECU will make those loans.
"It's important to help people when and where they need help," Anderson says. The credit union does so on a case-by-case basis, sometimes taking a loss. But most of the time, members work through their difficulties and emerge stronger—and more loyal—than before.
It all boils down to credit union philosophy, Anderson maintains. "We want to give members the opportunity to right their ships. I don't know that there's a business model on how to get rich doing this, but it's how we want to treat members."
In a testimonial collected by the credit union, new members Kevin and Emily Little recall how they came to UIECU with damaged credit aft er their bank refused to help them. "We applied for a small loan with a bank we'd been using for five years. We needed to fix our car and start to rebuild our credit history. We were denied and didn't know what else to do. UIECU was willing to help us rebuild both our lives and our credit."
That's exactly what Donaghey wants to achieve. "We can't just be there in good times," he says. Donaghey believes members like the Littles who are steered through a crisis will remain grateful—and loyal—to the credit union. "We're taking a longerterm view, and I wouldn't change a thing."
A community-wide response
"As a community credit union, it isn't possible to focus on our bottom line without considering how the broader community is faring," says Jill Nowacki, vice president of development for $454 million asset Maps Credit Union, Salem, Ore.
"It's similar to how some select employee group [SEG]-based credit unions struggled along with their sponsors," she says. "When sponsors struggle, credit unions and members also struggle. In the same way, when our community is more stable and prosperous, that's good for our credit union."
That's why, when the market bottomed out in 2008, Maps set out to address the financial crisis on a community-wide level.
One of the first things the credit union did was train a core group of employees to be financial educators. These employees helped members improve their financial literacy and product knowledge.
But credit union leadership knew early on it had to reach beyond the institution's branches to help foster a true financial recovery, says Nowacki.
The next step was to forge strategic partnerships with community organizations through which trained Maps employees would provide financial education. These partnerships were essential to the credit union's outreach, Nowacki says, because the nonprofits were wellaware of the financial issues their constituents were facing.
This enabled Maps educators to offer timely, relevant educational programming without having to conduct costly market research to identify the issues.
"We didn't have to spend a lot of time identifying their needs because our nonprofit partners let us know," says Nowacki. "We just find the curriculum that targets a certain group and teach that class."
This approach helps the credit union reach people, particularly nonmembers, at the early stages of financial hardship when more options are available to them. Increased activity at food-sharing programs, for example, can be an indicator of broader economic distress, she says.
A smart strategy This community-based approach is a smart strategy, says Mark Lynch, a consultant with the National Credit Union Foundation's Real Solutions program. Lynch works with state credit union leagues to help credit unions develop products and services geared toward people of modest means.
"Partnering with community organizations is important because people with financial problems oft en see financial institutions as part of the problem, not part of the solution," says Lynch. And many consumers simply aren't aware of credit union products and services that could help them improve their situations.
"Credit unions need to go to workplaces and churches and say, 'Just because you don't have money doesn't mean we can't help you,' " Lynch says. Maps works with several local organizations, including the Polk Community Development Corp., Mid-Valley Literacy Center, and Mid-Valley Prosperity Network. The credit union also established new products to help members ward offfinancial distress.
Its credit-builder loan, for example, is designed for members without credit, not members with damaged credit. But the product can help members avoid high-cost payday lenders that trap people in vicious debt cycles.
Maps also offers loan modifications and skip-apayment options on many credit products. Two years ago, the credit union created a position for a community development officer, and last year it created the Maps Community Foundation to promote financial education and outreach.
Nowacki says the efforts are paying off. Membership grew steadily during the recession, rising 6.6% last year. Assets and loan volume also rose, increasing 8.5% and 12.3%, respectively.

If you ask Dud
Campbell, it's all right to take a break from the arts now and then.
Well ... since the arts are a part of a person, that's not quite
right. All right, it's OK to switch arts now and then. Dud had
pretty much beaten himself to death trying to fathom what to do in
the novel about the duchess and truck driver, and it had left him
gasping for ideas.
From the early lessons
of squeaking and squawking and driving most of the cockroaches out
of the neighborhood, Dud's playing had progressed to the point that
people actually smiled when they discussed it.
When the cold weather hit, Dud would hurry home from work and
pick up the squeeze box and work diligently on it. Polkas and
waltzes, primarily. A few of the easier Cajun tunes, too. He
concentrated on those left-hand exercises, of course, where hitting
the exact right little black bass button every time is a challenge
known by all stomach Steinway artistes.
He had told the guys down at the world dilemma think tank (aka
the philosophy counter at the Mule Barn truck stop) that he was
ready to go out that weekend and squeeze out some money at a local
night spot with his music.
Monday morning, Dud pulled in to the counter and flipped his cup
back to the upright and fillable position.
"Well?" said Doc.
"Well what?"
[to top of second
"How did it go? The music. The accordion. Lady of Spain out on
the town. You know?"
Dud just shrugged and threw some sugar into the coffee.
"Did you make money playing your accordion?" Steve asked.
"Yes," Dud said, glumly.
"So it was a success, right?"
"Well, not ... entirely."
"Why not?"
"Went down to the Covered Wagon Saturday night. They had a good
crowd in there. Played some waltzes and a few polkas to get the
crowd warmed up. You know Bill? The owner?"
We nodded.
"He gave me $20 to go play somewhere else."

31 HORROR STORIES -- "The Horror of the Heights" (1913)@ 1:00 PM
Arthur Conan Doyle writing a horror story?! And what's more, it's a big, honking, flying MONSTER story?
Well, yeah. And it works. The creator of Sherlock Holmes is channeling Lovecraft here. But where Lovecraft suggests, Doyle likes to be plausible...but explicit. Gahan Wilson, in his introduction to this story, says you'll think about this on your next transatlantic flight and look up. So many times when I've been on an airplane, and we entered one of those huge-but-enclosed canyons of clouds, I thought of this. Long before I ever read this story. And Doyle brought my suspicions to life. To horrible, bloated life.
