It is an understatement to say that the Quinney family supports Utah State University's College of Natural Resources. Their passion for Utah's educational and cultural endeavors, as well as its natural resources, has helped countless students and faculty pursue opportunities that preserve our state's unique natural resources and improve the quality of life for all Utahns.
Their gifts include undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships and seed grants, as well as program development support in bioregional planning, the Western Aspen Alliance, efforts to restore Utah's rivers and riparian areas, sustainable living education and programming in Utah and Great Basin restoration, distance education programs and technological facilities.
Gifts from the foundation also funded the college's S.J. & Jessie E. Quinney Natural Resources Research Library. Established in 1992, the library houses more than 60,000 items and supports the programs and research of the college's academic departments, institutes and centers.
USU will be forever grateful to the Quinney Foundation for its long-standing, generous and forward-thinking support. On September 26, 2012, President Albrecht honored the foundation's most recent gift of $10 million, and unveiled the college's new name; The S.J. & Jessie E. Quinney College of Natural Resources.
Jon M. and Karen H. Huntsman know how to make a difference in the lives of others. They also understand the importance of higher education. That is why they chose to support Utah State University's College of Business with a $26 million gift.
The Huntsman's generous donation enables the college to expand its role as a professional school of distinction, a career accelerator for students and an engine of growth for the state and region. Their investment and belief in the school will open opportunities for students to become tomorrow's leaders — locally, regionally, nationally and globally.
Utah State University acknowledges the generosity of one of the world's great business leaders and philanthropists and is honored to be associated with the excellence and integrity embodied by the Huntsman name.
In recognition of the gift, the College of Business was renamed The Jon M. Huntsman School of Business.
The Caine College of the Arts was named in recognition of the Marie Eccles Caine Foundation's long-standing support of the arts at Utah State University. The idea for a school of the arts was initiated by then-Dean of the College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences, Stan Albrecht, now president of Utah State University. Albrecht worked closely with sisters Kathryn Caine Wanlass and Manon Caine Russell, founding members of the Marie Eccles Caine Foundation, to translate the vision of a school of the arts into reality.
The activities of the Caine College of the Arts are consonant with the goals of the Marie Eccles Caine Foundation to support visiting artists, provide scholarship support to students and enhance community outreach and partnerships in the arts. Today the Caine College of the Arts continues to raise the visibility and notoriety of the arts at Utah State University, the community and beyond.
Through the Caine College of the Arts, Utah State University confirms its cultural roots and continued support of the arts. The university is honored by the Caine family's unprecedented and exceptional kindness and generosity.
Utah State University celebrated two significant gifts from a long-time supporter and renamed its prestigious college of education The Emma Eccles Jones College of Education and Human Services.
The $25 million gift from the Emma Eccles Jones Foundation supported the design and construction of a new building as well as five endowed faculty chairs in early childhood education. An additional $1 million gift from the George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Foundation supports a new Center for Early Care and Education named for Dolores Doré Eccles.
The gifts allow the already highly ranked college to affirm even further its status as one the nation's leaders in early childhood education, research and service. The college provides a critical training ground for students who will become our nation's best teachers, deaf educators, speech-language pathologists and audiologists. The facilities offer early childhood education, student and parent training, a model research environment and endless opportunities for USU undergraduate and graduate students to observe, tutor and experience hands-on learning internships.
Emma Eccles Jones was a dedicated teacher and a loyal friend to the teaching profession. Utah State University hopes to carry on that great tradition with every teacher who graduates from the college.

We Got Power! A New Book From An Old Zine On Hardcore Punk
In 1981, David Markey and Jordan Schwartz were kids in strip mall Santa Monica. Alienated by their surroundings and inspired by punk rock, they created the zine We Got Power!, writing it with Jennifer Schwartz and Kim Pilkington in the apartment where Markey lived with his Mom. They wrote the zine from 1981-1983, as punk transmogrified into hardcore and spread throughout both Greater Los Angeles and the rest of the country. In doing so, they both documented and added their own voices to the hardcore scene. The new book We Got Power! contains both the full color run of the zine and hundreds of pages of photos and interviews with people who populated the scene. Unlike some other books on hardcore, many of the pictures and interviews feature girls along with boys. Henry Rollins describes these intelligent but troubled kids who populated the scene: "It seemed to me that either they didn't take their lives seriously—that is to say, that they thought they couldn't die—or they in fact were trying to make an early exit and have a great time fanning the flames of their own immolation. I didn't know if it was fearlessness, insanity, or stupidity that made them this way. I had never met anyone like them. They seemed like they had seen so much, like they were veterans of some long-running urban conflict (page 6-8)." The idealism of the 1960's was dead to these kids, but they still wanted something more. Though often violent and destructive to themselves or others, they were also extremely intelligent and had the kind of intensity and courage needed to break through the divisions of modern life, whether architectural, technological or other, and to form a true community in a vacuum. We Got Power! brings their lives alive. To read We Got Power! and other books on punk, graffiti and other subcultures of the West, come to the Western History and Genealogy department.

text: Good afternoon, got a bit of a puzzle here. Got a debian squueze server with an external storage array mounted via escsi. Df -h shows 100% disk usage on one partition. This partition did have the mysql directory, which I've moved to another partition along with at least 200Gb of other data. it still shows 100% usage, even after a number of reboots. Oddly nagios shows some free space now, but nagios still says full. Df -i shows 1% inode usage, I umounted the drive and verified that the directory it was mounted in was empty. I've seen oddness like this before with mysql, but never after a reboot. Any ideas?

The Mitsubishi 3000 GT released new in the 1991 to 1999 model years. During that time, these cars came in a variety of trim levels and could be customized to suit the buyer's desires. Each trim level offers unique features and color palettes.
While the automotive revolution of the early 1900s is often thought of as an American and European phenomenon, plenty of Asian companies chose to experiment in the new industry as well. In 1870, the original incarnation of the Mitsubishi company came about. At the time, the emphasis remained on shipping and industry, but before long, the company produced its first automobile. In 1917, Mitsubishi released its Mitsubishi Model A to good reviews.
In 1970, the automotive division of the company broke away to create the Mitsubishi Motor company. At this time, the company began to produce full lines of cars, trucks, and vans, as well as buses, for use and sale all over the world. The company underwent another chance in 2003, changing its focus to passenger cars.
The Mitsubishi Motor company continues to produce well-received cars designed to meet the consumers' needs. Among the company's many shining accomplishments, the 3000 GT remains one of the most well-known. This car reflects Japanese ingenuity and attention to detail all wrapped up in one exceptional sports car.
In the 1980s, the market saw a reduced interest in muscle or sports cars. In response, through that decade, manufacturers chose to focus on other styles of vehicles. However, the 1990s brought about a change in consumers' interests and the sports car started to make a comeback. The Mitsubishi 3000 GT represents one of the cars to bring the American attitude back to the fun, fast sports cars of the past. This model has an exciting look, fascinating gadgets, and outstanding performance.
Like many Japanese companies, Mitsubishi provides its cars with a variety of electronic devices intended to make life behind the wheel more exciting and convenient. The 3000 GT offers one example. With this model, Mitsubishi offers plenty of fun extras. These features do not always enjoy a grand reception, but for many consumers, the additions contribute to the fun of owning such a precision-inspired car.
In 1999, Mitsubishi decided to offer the 3000 GT new for the last time. Of course, the automaker also decided to supply this edition with as much power and good looks as possible. The 1999 3000 GT comes in three distinct trim levels: the base, SL, and VR-4.
The base and the SL models feature three-liter, V-6 engines. This motor choice pairs up well with the offered transmission styles, including the four-speed automatic and the five-speed manual options. On the SL edition, buyers look forward to the standard anti-lock brakes, a power driver's seat, and a variety of other extras.
Many people feel that to truly appreciate the Mitsubishi 3000 GT, one must experience the VR-4 model. This model offers larger wheels and comes equipped with a larger engine. While having all the bells and whistles drivers expect from a sports car, the 3000 GT VR-4 lacks in the performance arena especially due to its heavy weight. Some test drivers also mention that the 3000 GT lacks a solid steering feel. It offers limited interior space as well with taller-than-average people having a difficult time fitting in the space.
During the 1990s, while Mitsubishi produced the 3000 GT series, it made fairly continuous changes to the car line. In 1993, the 3000 GT received a bit of freshening up with the addition of leather seats offered standard in the VR-4 edition. 1994 saw some improvements as well with Mitsubishi changing the VR-4 engine power from 300 to 320 hp. This model year also marks the addition of another airbag and changes the headlight design for the entire 3000 GT family.
The line saw few changes until the 1997 model year, when many industry leaders felt Mitsubishi made some mistakes with the car's design. The engine changes to a 12-valve, V-6 in the base model of the car, and it only offers a meager 161 hp. This switch does a lot of damage to the model's reputation as a high-performance sports car. This year also marks the appearance of the new St. Louis style arch in the rear spoiler design. Sunroofs became an option on the SL and VR-4 models in 1998, and the company gave the car an entirely new look for its final model year in 1999.

So after perhaps the longest throat-clearing in Olympic history, we come back to the very first question we asked about men's basketball: Is Spain's size enough to cope with Team USA's, well, everything else?
We ask this because we have run out of other questions. With the exception of a 2.0-Richter scare against Lithuania, the US has beaten all comers so thoroughly that the final horn seemed to double as a turkey timer. Bing! They're cooked.
Argentina is the only team in the post-1992 "Dream Team" era to beat the US twice. In a five day span last week, the US beat Argentina twice by an average margin of 27.5 points, the most recent win coming in the semifinal Friday.
The Spain question really is the only one that has not been answered yet, because the US has not played Spain yet, and no one else really plays like Spain.
Spain tries to be David and Goliath at the same time, with two or three unshaven Philistines (the brothers Paul and Marc Gasol, sometimes with the more cleanly groomed Serge Ibaka) beating their chests in the paint, while tiny Davids sling shot from behind the 3-point arc to slay opponents.
With America's top big man, Dwight Howard, out of the Olympics with an injury, size would appear to be a weakness that Spain could exploit – if it can survive.
And that would seem to be the issue. Team USA has won not by playing exceptionally good defense (though it has been good), nor by executing a particularly ingenious game plan. It has won because, at some point in its games – and for seemingly inscrutable reasons – it has simply ignited in a Wagnerian conflagration of 3-pointers.
3-point switch?
In Friday's semifinal, it was Kevin Durant, cold from the field throughout the first half, who suddenly found his eye, hitting four 3-pointers in five minutes. As has been the case throughout the Olympics, the initial outburst seemed to send a palpable ripple through the team, as though Coach Mike Krzyzewski had some secret on-off switch beneath his seat, and his team was suddenly and unstoppably electric.
A 40-17 run ended when Carmelo Anthony, who had also been erratic earlier, hit his third consecutive three from almost 30 feet. The crowd began chanting "Unabrow" – a good-natured call for University of Kentucky standout Anthony Davis to enter the game.
At these Olympics, that is the equivalent of the fat lady singing.
How do you stop Durant, who is 700 feet tall and shoots threes with the accuracy of a Korean archer? How do you prevent Anthony from lobbing 30-foot 3-pointers with the aplomb of a Polish shot-putter? And what in the name of Albus Dumbledore do you do about LeBron James? When he doesn't score, it seems a personal choice, not a defensive success.
Confundus charm? Petrificus totalus?
Maybe it is time to call in J.K. Rowling, because every time someone has tried to answer those questions, they have come away with the strong scent of singed underpants.
Echoes of Stockton-Malone
In truth, Spain's big men are no Shaquille O'Neal. They are as likely to take a 15-foot jumper as they are to lower their shoulder and bump their way to the basket. But their size does present potential matchup problems. The US players are likely to have visions of John Stockton and Karl Malone, because the high pick and roll that the Utah Jazz once ran to perfection is a staple of the Spain playbook.
But there are reasons to think that size might not be a decisive advantage.
The National Basketball Association, for one, has gradually been transitioning away from true centers, instead favoring the versatility and athleticism of smaller "big men" who can shoot and run the floor. Neither the Miami Heat nor the Oklahoma City Thunder, the two NBA finalists, had a prototypical big man.
Moreover, the 3-point line in the international game is closer to the basket, and since defense essentially begins there, that means all the defenders are pushed into a tighter space, making it easier to give help to overmatched defenders.
And since the international game is only 40 minutes long – as opposed to the NBA's 48-minute games – American defenders can foul Spain's big men without as great a worry about fouling out.
From the beginning, people have tried to invent scenarios by which the United States might not win gold. On Sunday, we'll finally see if one of them was right.


text: I was given a nipple shield in the hospital because my nipples were relatively flat, partly from IV fluids. My baby is now 5 weeks old and I am still using it! Everyone keeps saying I will be able to get rid of it. I can get her to latch with out it, but it is usually a shallow latch and she gets frustrated more easily. Additionally, my right breast is really sore, and I get deep pain in the whole breast when she feeds of it. The latch looks exactly the same to me as it does on the other side, but the nipple is flatter on the right and the right breast seems much more full than the other. I don't even try and latch her without the shield on the right, but I actually have the feeling the shield may be part of the problem. Any suggestions? Do I just need to wait for her mouth to get bigger?

In the months since the Canadian government introduced its proposal for new legislation around sex work, Justice Minister Peter MacKay has been touring the country, holding closed-door meetings with what his department calls "criminal justice system stakeholders." While the exact identity of those consulted remains unclear, one thing is likely: none of them were sex workers, the very people the government's roundly criticised proposal will effect.
Canada's CBC news network says that it has repeatedly requested a list of attendees at MacKay's C-36 roundtables but was rebuffed with only a statement from his spokeswoman, Clarissa Lamb, saying that the minister "has met with a variety of individuals across many different sectors on justice issues of concern to Canadians across the country." "One central theme was clear throughout," she added. "That Canadians want safe communities in which to live and raise their families."
CBC noticed and linked to a Twitter post showing a selfie of MacKay with sex work abolitionists and vocal advocates of the bill, which gives us a clear indication of which "variety of individuals" was invited to discuss the bill.
Pivot Legal Society, which was an intervener in Canada vs. Bedfordand, in June, released a study on the human rights impact of criminalising sex workers' clients, observed an interesting parallel in a blog post this week.
Two months ago, Pivot wrote, the Downtown Eastside organization Sex Workers United Against Violence (SWUAV) sent invitationsto each and every Member of Parliament and Senator to come to the DTES community, meet with them, listen to their stories, and see what their lives are like; to understand how the legislation they draft directly impacts their lives. Out of 412 invitations, only one accepted. That MP (who requested anonymity) met with SWUAV members in the DTES last week; heard their stories and toured the neighbourhood, seeing where they work and where they live. "She heard stories about the importance of screening clients", Pivot wrote, "working closely with other women and having full access to the police. She heard how these safety measures are impossible under Canada's existing prostitution laws, and will continue to be impossible under Bill C-36". This happened at the same time MacKay was in Vancouver, consulting with everyone except the people his proposed legislation impacts.
From Pivot:
"That MacKay and the federal Conservatives failed to adequately consult with sex workers when they drafted this legislation is no surprise. This out-of-touch lawmaking has typified their approach since they formed government.
That no Member of Parliament, save for one, accepted an invitation to speak with the women whose lives will be most affected by this legislation is beyond disappointing. It's a violation of the contract between those that govern and the people they represent.
Despite the disappointment, the women of SWUAV remain steadfast in their resolve to fight bad laws that endanger them. It meant so much to the women to be heard this one time, and they will continue to demand to be heard by the government that claims to want to protect them. As one member of SWUAV said in the meeting:
"If one person can listen to us, that might lead to change in the world.""

MOORHEAD, Minn. (10/26/13)—Concordia used 27 straight points in the first half and a near perfect passing day from quarterback Griffin Neal to beat Augsburg 47-20 and become only the fourth Minnesota college to reach 500 career wins as a program.
The Cobbers join the select company of the University of Minnesota, St. John's and St. Thomas as Minnesota programs to reach the prestigious 500-win plateau. Concordia is now 500-287-38 in their 96th season of play. CC is now 6-1 in 2013 and 4-1 in league play. The Cobbers are currently tied for second place in the league standings.
The game against Augsburg deviated from the first six games of the season. In the previous six games, whichever team scored first, went on to win the game. That storyline came to an end on Saturday as the Auggies scored the first touchdown of the game before Concordia seized control by scoring 27 consecutive points from the final minute of the first quarter to the 4:31 mark of the second quarter.
The catalyst behind Concordia's 27-point rally and eventual 27-point victory was Neal. He was 19-for-21 for 281 passing yards and had four TD tosses. It is the second time this season he has thrown for over 250 yards.
Neal completed passes to six different receivers and three CC players came away with at least one touchdown catch and five overall receptions. Brandon Zylstra caught a 47-yard TD pass at the start of the second quarter and finished with five catches for 86 yards. Mark Whiting started slow but then had five catches for 86 yards and hauled in a pair of TD strikes. Jon Baune was the third member of the five-catch trio. He caught a 26-yard TD pass in the fourth quarter and had 69 receiving yards.
In addition to his 281 yards through the air, Neal also ran the ball a game-high 19 times for 43 yards. He was a part of a Cobber ground game that ran the ball 39 times and gained 149 yards. Junior fullback Domenic Fraboni rambled 36 yards for a score in the second quarter and had a team-high 60 rushing yards. It is the second straight week that Fraboni has had a long TD run.
The Cobber defense came up with many big plays in the game and limited the Auggies to just 20 points on the day. That is the second lowest point total of the year for Augsburg. The CC "Blackshirt" defense also contained the Auggie offense to 380 total yards. Augsburg entered the game averaging 463.0 yards per game.
The biggest impact from the Cobber defense came in forcing turnovers. Concordia forced four turnovers on the day including three interceptions. The three picks were a combination effort. The CC secondary blanketed the Auggie receivers while the Concordia defensive front 7 was able to get pressure on Augsburg quarterback Ayrton Scott. CC sacked Scott on one occasion but chased the sophomore signal caller all over the field. The Cobbers were also able to tip several passes around the line of scrimmage and had seven pass breakups in the game.
Nate Adams recorded his league-leading sixth sack of the season. Kenyon O' Brien, Tyler Hanson and Mitch Tauer had the three Concordia interceptions. O'Brien now has four "picks" on the season which is second best in the MIAC.
Cobber senior linebacker Tyler Berling had a team-high 11 tackles on the day. He also forced a fumble and had a tackle for a loss. Erik Bye had eight total tackles and had one pass break up.
Concordia kicker Ben Wagner had 11 total points on the day and now leads the team in scoring with 47 points. He was 2-for-3 in field goal attempts and 5-for-5 in extra point tries. Wagner has now connected on 73 straight extra point attempts which is just 11 shy of the MIAC record.
The Cobbers will now head out on the road for two straight weeks. Concordia will play at Carleton on the first Saturday in November and then play at defending MIAC champion St. Thomas on Saturday, Nov. 9 at 1:10 p.m.

McAuley Hall
Having served the University as both residence hall and library, McAuley Hall now houses classrooms, academic departments and offices, including the Office of Academic Affairs. Salve Regina acquired the property in 1955 and named it in honor of Catherine McAuley, founder of the Sisters of Mercy.
Designed by the famed architectural firm of Peabody & Stearns, McAuley Hall is a rambling red sandstone mansion built in the Richardsonian Romanesque style and characterized by heavy rustication and rounded arches. Completed in 1883, it is the former centerpiece of tobacco heiress Catherine Lorillard Wolfe's sprawling Vinland estate.
The grounds of the estate, planned by noted landscape architect Ernest Bowditch, feature a large dolium near the main entrance that was excavated from an Italian garden and dates to 200 B.C. A rose garden near the southern wing was planted by the University to serve as a place for quiet reflection.

Group: App development contributes $632M to Pa. economy
The development of applications for mobile devices is becoming an important job creator and contributes more than $632 million annually to Pennsylvania's economy, ranking the state among the top in the nation for the industry, according to the trade group Application Developers Alliance.
The study, titled "The Geography of the App Economy," places Pennsylvania 11th in the nation for app-development jobs, with about 12,900 in the state. The state's economic impact of app development makes it 10th in the nation, according to the study.
However, Pennsylvania falls to 19th when measured by "app intensity," or the number of app jobs as a percentage of total employment, according to the study.
The alliance highlighted two Pennsylvania companies in its promotion of the study, Scranton-based Appek and Lancaster-based appMobi, as examples of the growing impact on jobs and the economy.
"While many people think that technical innovation only happens in Silicon Valley, there is a surprising depth of quality engineering talent in Pennsylvania, and appMobi has been fortunate to hire from this pool of skilled developers," appMobi CEO David Kennedy said in a statement. Kennedy also is a member of the alliance's board of directors.
Nationally, app development is responsible for about 519,000 jobs and billions in economic impact, according to the study.
Technology jobs are increasing but there's a shortage of qualified workers, midstate companies said earlier this year.
The Washington, D.C.-based alliance partnered with CTIA-The Wireless Association, a trade group representing the wireless communications industry, to conduct the study. D.C.-based research and consulting firm South Mountain Economics completed the study for the organizations.

The Washington Post features a story on page one today, "As Crisis Loomed, Geithner Pressed But Fell Short" written by Robert O'Harrow Jr. and Jeff Gerth. The Post employs O'Harrow and Jeff Gerth, a former New York Times reporter, now works for ProPublica.
Pro-Publica is a non-profit journalism outfit founded with money from Herb Sandler, the former owner of Golden West, the California savings and loan he and his wife, Marion, sold to Wachovia in 2006. Herb Sandler now chairs Propublica. The Sandlers are also big backers of left-wing groups like ACORN and Moveon.org, as well as major contributors to the Democratic Party and candidates. (See this Pittsburgh Times column by Ed Lasky. UPDATE: And this follow-up column, "Will Herb & Marion Sandler pay a price?")
ProPublica's credo is this:
ProPublica is an independent, non-profit newsroom that produces investigative journalism in the public interest. Our work focuses exclusively on truly important stories, stories with "moral force." We do this by producing journalism that shines a light on exploitation of the weak by the strong and on the failures of those with power to vindicate the trust placed in them.
That's as clear of a statement of activist, left-liberal political sentiment as any we've seen, and yet The Washington Post finds it acceptable to partner with ProPublica in its journalism. It's as if the Post were working on bylined stories with Public Citizen or OMBWatch or Americans for Prosperity or the NAM. Our organizations all have some pretty good researchers and writers, but come at news from a clear and honestly stated perspective. So what would be the difference?
ProPublica first caught our attention last year when it embarked on a series of stories attacking the natural gas industry for its use of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling in development of the Marcellus Shale gas deposits in the Eastern United States. The stories were biased and one-sided, uniformly anti-business, and yet given great play by the Albany Times Union and public radio station and co-reporter, WNYC. (See Shopfloor,"'Public Interest' Reports: Energy Development is Bad," and "So That's What 'Public Interest' Journalism Means".) The stories showed a clear bias toward influencing public policy with the goal of limiting natural gas production.
Dave Kopel at the now-defunct Rocky Mountain News wrote on ProPublica's further poor reporting of the natural gas issue (in the Denver Post) in his media column, "ProPublica's shaky facts." As Kopel observed at the VolokhWatch legal blog: "The one article which I examined in depth is not necessarily representative of the overall quality of ProPublica's work. Nevertheless, the quality control failure on that article would make me very cautious about using ProPublica's work, if I were a MSM editor. Before using the article, I would probably assign one of my own staffers to fact-check the ProPublica article."
Seems like good advice, still. From "Disaster Preparedness Pays Off in North Dakota": "But just hours earlier, the predicted height of the river's crest had jumped, and Pitts received word that a nearby dyke looked vulnerable." They've since fixed that misspelling, but the word "busses" remains.
ProPublica stories have appeared in many major media outlets — a Los Angeles Times package on psychiatric care, with the Chicago Tribune on a psychiatric hospital — and the Post's Page One story demonstrates the trend is now-well established, that resources-strapped newspapers are happy to let other people do their reporting for them, especially when it's free.
This week the news appeared, "Huffington Post to bankroll investigative reporting." How soon before we see a front page Washington Post story with the byline, "By Robert O'Harrow Jr. and Sam Stein?" Stein's a good reporter, so no problem.

The range is to be made, a spokesperson said, but not brought onto sale until after the birth of the royal baby in July.
The Royal Collection usually brings out time-specific royal memorabilia. Last year, it began selling goods relating to the Diamond Jubilee (for which, sales figures are due to be released within the next few weeks). On the occasion of the Royal Wedding in 2011, they sold wedding memorabilia.
The Royal Collection Trust has never produced any commemorative baby items, because it was not established until 1993, nine years after the birth of Prince Harry.
The charity's website 'royalcollection.org.uk' lists all the products they have available on sale at the royal residences' gift shops.
They range from crown pencils for £2.50 to a limited edition celebration bowl costing £595.00 (the Celebration Bowl commemorates the 65th Wedding Anniversary of HM Queen Elizabeth II and HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh on 20th November 2012).

Two dropdead gorgeous girls have fun with a man dominating him with first their knockout beauty and later -more fun to them- getting more physical. They practice ballbusting on him, on his balls more explicitly, with a series of kicks to the balls. They have so much fun every time their powerful knees strike home right into his groin that these crazy girls take turns to knee and kick him to oblivion. He tries to take it, to please these gorgeous beauties, but their pointy high heels boots strike home once, twice, again and again, smashing his tender testicles with the pointy toes of their boots as much as their sexy legs knees, delivering an excrutiating pain into him that no man can avoid going dizzy after such hard blows to the berries.

America's real estate market has had a rough ride over the past two years, with home valuations dropping and foreclosure rates on the rise, but how big can these drops really be?
Recently, Trulia.com released their "October Price Reduction Report," which highlights some of their high-end listings that have dropped significantly in price, in excess of $1 million. The report also found that 25.6% of all homes on the market as of Oct 1 have experienced at least one price cut, with the total amount of prices slashed reaching a shocking $28.4 billion. Of the houses with price reductions, the luxury market represents only 2% of the listings on Trulia, but represents 25% of the value in total home price reductions.
So, what are some of the country's biggest real estate markdowns? Click ahead to see 10 examples of million dollar price reductions!

One of the things I love about the Christmas season in SL is the glitz. You won't see me wearing gold or silver with black in my real life. But Anorak can be as glam as she wants to be in her new skinny jeans, a classy take on a 21st-century trend from Bela Tolsen of TuttiFrutti.
We finally get a look at Dorothy, and she's not ugly at all. Sopha Portal's latest skin focuses on softly glimmering eye makeups and orange and pink lip colours.
For Dorothy, there are three caucasian skintones to choose from and eight makeups in each pack. All makeups come with teeth versions, and the pack includes a pretty shape not shown here. Cleavage is sold separately.
The Plastik has a ton of Xmas-themed clothing on offer this season, as well as a number of gift-givers for group members. The Daunting Fate corset worn here is a regular item, available all year round for ever and ever and ever.

So I bought some of this a few weeks ago and I've been procrastinating over what to make with it - until tonight.
I've been wanting to try making mini-pies for a while and since I finally remembered to snag some Cream of Tomato at the grocery, I figured tonight would be a good night to try it out.
Here's what I ended up with:
The first 3 clock-wise are "meat pies". The filling is the Morningstar "meat", some mixed veg and Cream O' Tomato thrown in, simmered for about 10 minutes in medium-high. The dough is really plain pie dough, just flour, water and butter (actually I used margarine o_o). The 'C' is cut for my boyfriend :3
The top left one (the ugly one) is actually some left over anko I wanted to use up. I haven't tried it yet but I'll let you know how that one came out. I also had some of the 'meat' filling left, which I'm going to stuff into onigiri tomorrow when I'm replenishing my freezer stash.
In case you were wondering, yes most of my improvised recipes involve me seeing what I have and throwing what seems like a reasonable portion into a pot and turn the heat up. I'm not that creative...
That is generally the way I operate as well. What I cook always depends on what is in the fridge/cabinets and what sounds good to me (or sometimes my husband).

Cullen Wife Swap
Alice gets bored one day and decides to have some fun with the girls. They decide to do Wife Swap, cullen style! Slightly noncanon couples but NO THEY DON'T LOVE EACH OTHER! THEY ARE JUST HAVING A LITTLE BIT OF FUN! I set it as Teen because it has slightly mature theme. I figured i couldn't stick it in Adult, because i'm NOT an adult. So, teen is as good as i get.
Okay, may get slightly rude in places. But i won't go into details. You see, Alice gets rid of one of the key rules of Wife Swap (read the first chapter and see)
1. Introduction into Wife Swap
Rating 5/5 Word Count 745 Review this Chapter
"I am so BORED!" declared Alice "The boys are out hunting! I wish I'd asked Jazz to stay. Why didn't I?"
"You said you had plans," I reminded her.
"I did! There's a shop that does great shoes and they decided to have a sale! Seventy-five percent off all shoes"
"So why aren't we there?" asked Rosalie, stretching out on the cream sofa.
"They decided not to open today," groaned Alice. She picked up the TV remote and began flicking through the vast thousands of channels, barely staying on one channel for a second before swapping. Then it stopped. Alice growled.
"I think it needs new batteries," I said. Alice threw it across the room, where it hit the wall and promptly, shattered.
"That won't help," commented Rose. Alice scowled and went to gather the pieces.
"Oh dear. I just replaced the last one! Which of the boys broke it this time? I'm sure it wasn't Edward. Who was it? Emmett? Jacob? Jasper?" said Esme, coming in from the garden.
"None of them. It was me," said Alice.
"Oh Alice! I'll have to get a new one again" she sighed and left. Alice plopped herself onto the sofa and scowled at the screen resolutely, unable to flick any longer. Music started playing loudly and Alice jolted upright.
"What is this?" I glanced at the screen.
"Wife Swap. Jessica and Lauren watched it when I knew them. It is pretty good, I must admit. Two wives swap lives"
Alice watched three episodes of Wife Swap and then looked at me. She had her scary, I-just-had-a-great-idea look on her face.
"What?" I asked suspiciously.
"We should do Wife Swap!"
"Apply for the show?" Asked Rose, her eyebrow raised.
"No! We should totally do our own version! Who's with me?" I thought she was insane.
"I'll do it," said Rose.
"Great. So we have you, me and Bella"
"What! I never volunteered! I think you're mad," I said, but I knew I'd never win the argument.
"Do you think we need anyone else?" mused Rose. Nessie entered the room with an air of someone who'd been listening at the key hole.
"I'll do it!"
"NO!" we all said at the same time.
"Why?" she pouted.
"One, you are not married" I said.
"Two, if we all swap so we end up with each husband, you'll end up with your dad at some point and that would be so wrong" said Rosalie.
"And three, we're changing the rules" said Alice with a grin on her face.
"What? Are we?"
"Yes! In the program, they have like an anti-sex rule. So, since that will be a major part of your first week with Emmett, we are abolishing that rule," said Alice. Nessie scowled and left, disgruntled.
"Let's write out the rules to show the guys so we can get them to agree," suggested Rose.
Rules for Cullen Wife Swap as approved by Rosalie, Alice and Bella.
The rules for Cullen Wife Swap are as follows. Each wife is to spend two weeks with an alternate husband. During the first week they are to follow the rules and routine of the original wife but during the second week they are in charge, though rules such as, I am allowed to come home and have sex with my real husband are strictly forbidden (Bella...). There is to be no contact made with the original husband unless it says so in the first week's instructions. Each husband will be given for all of his house occupants to record their feelings. That is a video diary. Not a let's film what we spent the evening doing (Emmett...). After the two weeks are up, the wives will move on to a new husband or their original husband.
We showed the boys when they got back.
"You want to do a Wife Swap?" Edward asked in disbelief.
"No" I muttered.
"Yes" said Alice and Rosalie.
"So, this means I get to do it with Alice AND Bella?" asked Emmett. Edward growled.
"Come on! It's just a bit of fun Edward. Don't be a prude. Okay, how about we make it interesting. The boy that has the best review from the wives can take the girl of his choice on a holiday and the others will pay. And the girl with the best review from the husbands can also go on a holiday of choice"
"So we might have to pay for two holidays?" protested Jasper.
"You might win," said Rosalie.
"Okay" Said Jasper.
"Hell yeah!" Said Emmett.
"If we must," said Edward.
"Let's do it!" said Alice.

Dear Liz: What are your thoughts on charitable giving? I hear about tithing (giving 10% of income) but would have real problems trying to maintain that commitment. That said, I'd like to become a regular donor to a reputable charity.
Answer: Most U.S. households give to charity, according to the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University, but the average contribution rate for those who give is closer to 3% than 10%.
If you want to step up your charitable giving, take the time to plan and prioritize as you would any other part of your financial life.
Making larger donations to a few charities is typically better than scattershot donations to a bunch of causes, said Ken Berger, the president and chief executive of nonprofit watchdog Charity Navigator. Charities spend money to process donations, and those costs tend to eat up more of small donations, he said. A $100 donation to a single charity might incur $2 in processing costs, leaving $98 for good works, Berger noted. The same $100, spread among 10 charities, would require each to spend $2 for processing — leaving just $80.
Because smaller donations don't benefit charities as much, some are tempted to increase their "yield" by selling your information to other charities or repeatedly hitting you up for additional contributions, Berger said. Giving more allows you more leverage to ask that your information not be sold and that the charity limit its appeals.
You can research charities at websites such as Charity Navigator and GuideStar to make sure you understand their finances and how effective they are in reaching their goals.
Finally, consider setting up automatic donations rather than rushing to make contributions at year's end. Some companies have payroll deductions for charities, or you can set up a recurring charge on a credit or debit card. Making your contributions automatic helps ensure you can achieve your charitable giving goals. It's like saving or "paying yourself first" — when you don't have to constantly remind yourself to do it, it's more likely to get done.
Pros and cons of a reverse mortgage
Dear Liz: All my friends have said I should get a reverse mortgage to be able to live more comfortably and still stay in my house. I would think our greedy banking system would give you only 50% of value and have a high interest rate that would chew up the remaining value. What is your advice on the merits of this option?
Answer: A reverse mortgage program that lets you tap too much of your home equity wouldn't be in business very long.
Reverse mortgages allow people 62 and older to borrow against the value of their homes without having to make payments on the debt. Instead, the amount they owe typically increases over time because interest is charged on the loan, and that adds up. Lenders get paid back when the owner moves out, sells the house or dies. If the house is worth less than the debt, the lender (or more often the insurer) suffers a loss.
Too-generous lending standards have already caused trouble for previous iterations of the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage, the federally insured option most often used by borrowers. Too many borrowers grabbed big lump sums up front, straining the program's reserves and leaving the borrowers with few options if they ran into hard times later. Defaults rose as borrowers failed to pay their property taxes and insurance premiums as required.
The Federal Housing Administration, which insures HECMs, has tightened the rules so that borrowers can access less of their equity upfront. Fees also have increased.
How much you can borrow using a HECM depends on your age, the home's value and current interest rates. Interest rates for lump-sum withdrawals are fixed, while those for lines of credit you can tap over time are variable.
You'll certainly get a better (or at least less expensive) deal if you borrow 60% or less of your home's value. The mortgage insurance premium for loans below that level is 0.5% of the home's appraised worth under the new federal government rules that go into effect Monday. Those borrowing more than 60% face a premium equal to 2.5% of the home's value. That's in addition to a 1.25% annual mortgage insurance premium.
There's no getting around the fact that these are expensive and complex loans. They're usually not a great choice for people who have other assets to tap. They also can prove a land mine for people who drain their home equity too early and wind up with no resources later in life. On the other hand, they can provide a more comfortable retirement for those who would otherwise be strapped for cash, particularly if the borrowers opt for a steady stream of monthly payments rather than the upfront lump sum.
If you are considering a reverse mortgage, you should talk to a fee-only financial planner who is familiar with the program and who can review your other alternatives.

A council has announced plans to slash its planning committee by nearly half in response to advice from the Local Government Association.
North East Derbyshire District Council's planning committee will see members – who get no extra allowance – reduced from 33 to 18, to bring it in line with other similar-sized authorities.
North East Derbyshire District Council Leader, councillor Graham Baxter MBE said:
"We are doing everything we can to make the council as efficient and streamlined as possible and this is the latest idea that we will be implementing. We took and listened to advice and decided that this was the best option and way forward for the Committee.
"Planning committees are apolitical and need to focus on the needs of the district as a whole, but we are still keen for ward members to play their part and represent their communities and they will be allowed to speak at the committee for three minutes on a specific application."
