Editor's Summary
As demands for knowledge management have broadened the use of taxonomies, taxonomists are finding more applications for their work and seeking ways to ensure the products are implemented well for added value. This special section provides a brief guide to building taxonomies for standardized use by multiple work groups. A case study in taxonomy maintenance traces the process of updating and expanding a vocabulary to serve the burgeoning world of science. One article addresses practical methods for evaluating taxonomy schemes and the decision making involved in applying terms to classify content. Another explores taxonomies as navigational tools and as the basis for automatic classification and ways those specialized uses influence taxonomy design. The importance of integrating and coordinating taxonomy construction in the developmental phase of website architecture is explained as being key to maximizing the taxonomy's value and contribution to user experience. The application of taxonomies and automated indexing in the health domain is presented, discussing their innovative implementation for coding electronic medical records.

Taxonomies in Practice
by Marjorie M. K. Hlava, Special Section Guest Editor
Over the past few decades, taxonomies have grown in importance in the worlds of information technology and knowledge management. As technologies, platforms and uses have developed, information specialists have discovered what works and what doesnt and have developed effective approaches for creating taxonomies that do. The articles in this issue focus on taxonomy development and implementation.
Perhaps you already have a taxonomy or classification scheme. So how do you evaluate it and decide if it does what you want it to do and what still needs to be done to it? This is the subject of Evaluating Classification Schema and Classification Decisions, by Denise Bedford, a well-known taxonomy expert and currently the Goodyear Professor of Knowledge Management at Kent State University. She offers practical methods for evaluating not only the scheme itself, but also how well it supports classification decisions.
Taxonomies, including thesauri, have become important resources in online science publication platforms. For their full potential to be realized, they need to be carefully designed and developed. In Case Study: Developing the PLOS Thesaurus, Jonas Dupuich of the Public Library of Science and Gabe Carr of Access Innovations, Inc., describe the rebuilding of the PLOS thesaurus to increase its usability and better reflect the content of its publications in a wide variety of subjects in medicine, biology and other scientific areas.
Building User Experiences: Synchronizing User Experience Design and the Supporting Metadata and Taxonomy Infrastructure is by Carol Hert and Gary Carlson of Gary Carlson Consulting and Bram Wessel, an experience strategist at Factor. They observe that there is often a disconnect between user experience design work and the development of taxonomy and metadata. The article examines some possibilities for integrating the dual development processes, drawing on examples from the authors recent projects.
One of the most promising areas for applying digital taxonomy-based platforms is health information. In Indexing Electronic Medical Records Using a Taxonomy, John Kuranz, CEO of Access Integrity, and Barbara Gilles of Access Innovations explore some of the challenges involved in achieving indexing accuracy. As the article puts it, Part of the grand mission of rendering order out of chaos is to bring clarity and precision to the language of our deliberations. Some automated and semi-automated methodologies for accomplishing this goal are discussed.
In the not-too-distant past of online taxonomies, they were used largely to provide a basis for online navigation of websites. Wendi Pohs of InfoClear Consulting points out that while taxonomies still fulfill this role, the emphasis has been shifting toward their use in auto-classification. This change calls for a change in the taxonomy building process. In Building a Taxonomy for Auto-classification, Pohs explains how we still work to create high-level categories, but we also work to accurately associate the lower-level entities with the higher-level categories weve created.
Building Controlled Vocabularies for Metadata Harmonization, by Marcia Zaharee, lead information systems engineer at MITRE Corporation, is a use case for metadata harmonization. The article describes MITREs Tactical ISR Integration Metadata Harmonization project for the U.S. Department of Defense. A practical, step-by-step controlled vocabulary or taxonomy development approach is provided, along with the caveat, Taxonomists will tell you there is no right way to create a CV and taxonomies are always evolving. This is true!
My thanks to all the authors for sharing their insight and experience.

1. Generation Enggelmundus
Hemorrhoids, also known as piles, are enlarged veins that occur both in the interior or exterior of the rectum. Veins swell as a result of increased pressure exerted on them by effects of constipation or extreme diarrhea, and during bowel movements in pregnancy. If not properly managed hemorrhoids can progress to other complicated health conditions. One of the best ways to manage this distressing health condition is the use of essential oils for hemorrhoids.
Internal hemorrhoids or hemorrhoids appearing on the inside of the rectum are more intricate to diagnose unless they inhibit pain. The commonest sign of this condition is blood in the stool. However, this sign shows the condition has been present for quite some time. Upon noticing any sign, it is advisable to visit a doctor immediately for specialized diagnosis and treatment.
External hemorrhoids or hemorrhoids appearing on the outside of the rectum are much easier to discover because they are notoriously bigger and cause a lot of discomfort in the anus. They typically manifest themselves as small lumps around the rectum, causing a great deal of itching and painful irritation. With essential oils for hemorrhoids, they can be eliminated in less than a fortnight. On rare occasions, though, when they have developed to the point of obstructing the rectum, they can take up to four weeks to vanish.
Why essential oils for hemorrhoids are the safest option during pregnancy
So that you know, hemorrhoids affect more than 50 percent of pregnant women. Cases are common during the mid-second trimester through to the third. 25 weeks into pregnancy, the uterus enlarges, and more blood starts getting pumped to the pelvic region. This results in the swelling and itching of the rectum muscles. Any form of straining, like having hard stool only aggravates the situation. However, it cannot be that bad, there are essential oils for hemorrhoids that provide an almost instant relief. During pregnancy, chemical-based treatments are known to cause complications for both the mother and the unborn baby, and most of them can only be administered at particular periods only. Essential oils, on the other hand, are known to be safe for use, and they don�t cause any long or short-term side effects.
Signs and symptoms of hemorrhoids
- Bright red bleeding that can be seen right after passing stool.
- Pain or discomfort when touching the anal section.
- Irritation and long lasting itching in the rectum.
- Sometimes visible protrusions from the rectum.
- Small lamps around the rectum.
- Continuous urge to visit the bathroom, even when there is nothing.
Curing hemorrhoids with essential oils (Aromatherapy)
For centuries, people have used natural oils for averting and preventing different ailments. They are not only effective, but they are also known to be safe. They contain no chemical ingredients whatsoever, so there is zero chance of harboring contaminants that cause health hazards. The use of natural essential oils is the commonest and the most effective means of eliminating piles, because of the following reasons:
- They are easy to use as they can be applied directly to the swollen anus devoid of too many complications.
- They are rich in vitamins, anti-inflammatory agents, and enzymes.
- They have been proven to be fast-acting in relieve of piles symptoms, including pain and swelling.
- They are readily absorbed into the swollen hemorrhoid tissues via the anal opening to prevent inflammation.
- By being absorbed into the blood system, these natural oils help in boosting the immune system of the patient.
Advantages of essential oils for
hemorrhoids over other remedies
Research has shown that essential oils are far more concentrated than dry herbs. Thus, only small quantities can be used for maximum effectiveness. They are rich in botanical elements that include vitamins, hormones, and antibiotics. Unlike chemical and herbal treatments, essential oils can be applied topically because they have the natural capability of easily penetrating through the skin and into the blood system. Aromatherapy combines with a diet prescription and a certain discipline to provide quick relief to patients with hemorrhoids.
How essential oils for hemorrhoids work
The essence of aromatherapy is to boost blood circulation, and to sooth resident pain. It also helps in quick healing of tissues, re-establishing all defaults in affected areas.
Aloe Vera
Aloe Vera is undeniably one of the most commonly used medication ingredients for virtually all ailments. Not many people are aware that it is abundant in nature�s oils that are used in curing hemorrhoids. In its natural form, Aloe Vera can be inserted directly into the anus to relieve and cause the inflammations to dry up. You can also use products that are based on the herb, like creams and wipes.
Lavender oil
Lavender oil can be utilized in the treatment of piles in three ways:
- A mixture of both Juniper or Jasper oil and lavender oil can be used to sooth the inflamed bum when applied directly. To serve as a carrier, almond or apricot can be mixed with these oils.
- When mixed with geranium oil, lavender oil forms a soothing balm that can also be applied directly to the bum.
- This oil can also be mixed with warm water for bathing. This is known to reduce or eradicate irritation and itching.
Cypress oil
Cypress oil is mostly used for bleeding hemorrhoids. It can either be mixed with lemon juice and base oil to be applied on the bum, or it can be mixed in bathing water for the same effect.
Tea tree oil
This is famous Australian oil that instantly kills all bacterial, viral, and fungal infections. It is effective when applied directly to absorb into the inflamed butt.
Most severe cases of piles have been as a result of due negligence. While it may be difficult sometimes to detect the condition, early abnormal signs must be taken seriously. It is advisable to book an appointment with the doctor the instance you notice unusual signs. For example, you might experience some pain you�re not used to emanating from your anus. It is not wise to ignore, and immediate action must be taken. Once the diagnosis has been made, you can discuss with the clinicians various treatment options including the essentials oils for hemorrhoids that will entirely cure the condition.
Use of essentials oils for hemorrhoids has over the years been confirmed to be effective compared with other available treatment options. Also, the oils tend to have a high safety margin. Lastly, to avoid recurrence of hemorrhoids after therapy, patients are advised to eat lots of fibers, to take a lot of water and fluids, and to exercise regularly.

As many longtime readers know, I am not a fan of the Phillies but I love the Phillie Phanatic more than most members of my family. Some combination of Jim Henson, a love of animals on ATVs and a longing for those innocent days of VHS blooper tapes has made me interested in whatever the Phanatic does, to the point that if you read "the Phillie Phanatic went to the Galapagos Islands" and don't care we probably can't be friends.
I'll let the plot synopsis of Tom Burgoyne's 'The Phillie Phanatic's Galapagos Islands Adventure' fill you in on what I assume are the details:
At a Phillies game one night, the Phillie Phanatic notices that he looks a lot different than everyone else. His Mom, Phoebe, explains that before he lived in Philadelphia, the Phanatic lived on the Galapagos Islands. To show the Phanatic that being different is part of the beauty of life, Phoebe sends her son back to the tropical island chain where he was born.
Join the Phillie Phanatic on his long journey back to the Galapagos Islands, where he meets creatures of all shapes and sizes.
The photos you're about to love are courtesy of MLB.com. Amy Cadge should get a Pulitzer for the one of the Phanatic with a baby sea lion.
[h/t Mike Westfall]
Seriously, this is the "Afghan Girl" of mascot photos.
If you don't love this picture, something's wrong with you.
New professional goal: hang out with a baseball mascot in a tropical wilderness.

Build script snippet for plugins DSL for Gradle 2.1 and later:
plugins {
id("com.boxfuse.client") version "220.127.116.117"
Build script snippet for use in older Gradle versions or where dynamic configuration is required:
buildscript {
repositories {
maven {
url = uri("https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/")
dependencies {
apply(plugin = "com.boxfuse.client")
The new way to add plugins to a project is much more than a more convenient syntax. The new DSL is processed very differently to the old one. The new mechanism allows Gradle to determine the plugins in use very early and very quickly. This allows Gradle to do smart things such as:
- Optimize the loading and reuse of plugin classes.
- Allow different plugins to use different versions of dependencies.
- Provide editors detailed information about the potential properties and values in the buildscript for editing assistance.
This requires that plugins be specified in a way that Gradle can easily and quickly extract, before executing the rest of the build script. It also requires that the definition of plugins to use be somewhat static.
There are some key differences between the new plugin mechanism and the "traditional"
apply() method mechanism.
There are also some constraints, some of which are temporary limitations while the mechanism is still being developed and some are inherent to the new approach.
Constrained syntax.
The new
plugins {} block does not support arbitrary Groovy code.
It is constrained, in order to be idempotent (produce the same result every time) and side effect free (safe for Gradle to execute at any time).
The form is:
plugins {
id «plugin id» version «plugin version»
«plugin version» and
«plugin id» must be constant, literal, strings.
No other statements are allowed; their presence will cause a compilation error.
plugins {} block must also be a top level statement in the buildscript.
It cannot be nested inside another construct (e.g. an if-statement or for-loop).
Can only be used in build scripts.
plugins {} block can currently only be used in a project's build script.
It cannot be used in script plugins, the settings.gradle file or init scripts.
Future versions of Gradle will remove this restriction.
Cannot be used in conjunction with subprojects {}, allprojects {} etc.
It is not possible to use the familiar pattern of applying a plugin to multiple projects at once using
subprojects {} etc. at the moment.
There is currently no mechanism for applying a plugin to multiple projects at once.
At the moment, each project that requires a plugin must declare so in the
plugins {} block in its buildscript.
Future versions of Gradle will remove this restriction.
If the current limitations of the new plugin mechanism are problematic for your build, the recommended approach is to use the "traditional" mechanism for the time being.

SALEM -- This was the golden era for ocean travel: when ladies wore floor-length ball gowns, sometimes with parasols in hand, and gents donned flared frock-coats that gave them an hour-glass figure, a style inspired by Prince Albert.
Opulence and beauty were paramount for the cruise liner.
Fans can now relive this bygone era through some telltale relics on display at a new exhibit opening Saturday at the Peabody Essex Museum. The museum, in Salem, partnered with London's Victoria and Albert museum for the show.
The exhibit, called "Ocean Liners: Glamor, Speed, and Style," tells a narrative of society's love of ocean travel, and how these ships evolved over the 100 years they ruled the seas.
"Ocean liners conveyed ideas. They were this special place where anything was possible," said Daniel Finamore, a curator for the museum's exhibit.
Indeed, glamour, speed and style were ideas with which ocean liners were associated. The public was most fascinated by speed. "The latest ship had to be the fastest," Finamore said.
There are more than 200 works from the 19th and 20th centuries on display, including textiles, furniture, models, photographs and fashion.
Of course, any visual story about ocean liners wouldn't be complete without some artifacts from the "unsinkable" Titanic, which broke apart and sank in 1912 after the ship's captain ignored warnings and steered the boat into an iceberg at speeds meant to impress passengers.
From the Titanic, there is a framed advertisement for second- and third-class bunks available on the voyage from New York back to London. Tickets started at $36.25 for the voyage on April 20, 1912, a trip that never happened.
There's also a wooden deckchair with broken caning and a piece of hand-carved wooded archway, the largest surviving piece of woodwork from the Titanic. Both the deckchair and archway piece were found floating in the water near the ship.
For ocean liners, luxury was largely on display during meals. Lunch on the sunken Lusitania, a British ocean liner that was torpedoed by a German submarine in 1915, might include green turtle soup and hindquarters of lamb service on fine china with shiny silver cutlery.
In the exhibit, there also is a 1950 photograph of the famous Hollywood actress Marlene Dietrich, wearing a Christian Dior buttoned-up skirt suit waiting to board the Queen Elizabeth, operated by the Cunard Line. Dietrich was an experienced trans-Atlantic tourist; she had a favorite room with a wooden piano that is part of the exhibit.
"Ocean Liners" captures the museum-goer's imagination and highlights a contrast between ocean travel now and yesteryear, said Richard Griffin of Salem.
"It's transporting," he said. "It is a feeling of being rather than doing, then as opposed to now, when people would just be and luxuriate instead of doing so many things."
"Ocean Liners: Glamor, Speed, and Style runs through Oct. 9, 2017, at the Peabody Essex Museum."

The stock market had a weak performance in August with the S&P 500 Index closing with a loss of 3.1%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average similarly lost 4.4%. The Covestor Growth and Momentum portfolio did slightly better but still had a negative performance for the month.
Warren Buffett's 'First Rule of Investing' is never lose money. Rule No. 2 is never forget rule No. 1. The priority of managing a portfolio is to minimize losses and try to avoid exposure to equities as much as possible in a correction.
Continue Reading Below
As many of my holdings that I have had for a longer period of time have gains, my desire to limit losses results in parting company with many new acquisitions that quickly become 'red ink' in a correction.
In particular Cardtronics (CATM), was purchased August and sold soon after. A week later with the market firming up, I decided the CATM 'story' was too compelling for me to stay away from and I put the stock back into my portfolio.
I particularly find intriguing the relationship between Cardtronics and Costco (COST), a company I would like to eventually include in this portfolio, which runs a successful discount membership warehouse store. Cardtronics is a prior holding of mine in this portfolio which was sold on technical weakness yet has now rebounded nicely, as this chart shows.
Similarly both Cisco (CSCO) and Sysco (SYY) showed weakness during the month and I parted company with both stocks.
Cisco, the networking company, was sold at a small loss in August, and Sysco, the food and supply distributor, was also sold at a small loss the same month. We can look at their charts and see the technical weakness that I observed: First Cisco (CSCO) chart from StockCharts.com.
The Cisco (CSCO) chart isn't too bearish, but my own developing loss led me to sell the holding to preserve capital and obey the Warren Buffett Rule No. 1.
Quite frankly, the Sysco (SYY) chart also doesn't look bad, but with the market weak and a loss developing I sold the position.
Other stocks that were sold with small losses included Danaher (DHR), Prestige Brands Holdings (PBH), Tile Shop Holdings (TTS), and Polyone (POL).
Each of these I would consider for inclusion in this portfolio as funds allow. Each were recent purchases and as the market weakened they turned from profitable positions into losing holdings and out they went.
As the market rebounded in the first week of September, I started putting the cash back to work with new positions in Gildan (GIL), CarMax (KMX), Lowe's (LOW), and LKQ (LKQ) as well as my repurchase of Cardtronics (CATM).
When managing this portfolio, especially being aware that on the Covestor platform there are others who are mirroring my own activity, I have become very risk averse.
I do not like to overweight any particular stocks (except as their own performance may grow the position), I do not use margin and I avoid losses like the plague. In some fashion, I intend to win this baseball game of investing my making a lot of singles and not 'swinging for a home run'. In weak markets, I will avoid losses and unload stocks that otherwise may have long-term potential if the short-term means incurring losses.
I continue to search for stocks that have strong charts, good earnings reports and financials, and have a business that makes sense.

Ellis Boyd, Smash (2012)
For the love of sweater vests, please kick Terrible Ellis (Jaime Cepero) off Broadway! This pathologically opportunistic, eavesdropping assistant hasn't met a door he doesn't like pressing his ear against. It'd be one thing if he were deliciously evil — or better yet, if he could sing — but this blank-faced lurker is one of the biggest flaws in a hugely flawed (yet weirdly addictive) series. —Stephan Lee
Kim Bauer, 24 (2001–10)
They called her ''Cougar Trap.'' The hapless teenage daughter of terrorist fighter Jack Bauer on 24, Kim Bauer (Elisha Cuthbert) had a never-ending series of misadventures that kept distracting our hero from saving Los Angeles. Most infamously, a season 2 nature trek resulted in Kim getting caught in, yes, a cougar trap, then nearly eaten by the very animal the trap was meant to catch. Apparently the cougar was smarter than she was. —James Hibberd
Nikki and Paulo, Lost (2006–07)
There's a reason some characters are relegated to the background. When Lost writers decided to bring two of the also-crasheds to the forefront, no one could have predicted how grating the pair's whiny inanity would become. Only 11 episodes after their debut, Nikki and Paulo (played by Kiele Sanchez and Rodrigo Santoro) were unceremoniously buried alive in a particularly gruesome (and satisfying) bit of fan service. —Keith Staskiewicz
Janice Litman, Friends (1994–2004)
If irritation could be tapped as a fuel source, our reaction to Janice's laugh could power a midsize city. The curly-haired cackler (Maggie Wheeler) ruined any number of events in the Friends' lives, popping up throughout Chandler's courtship of and marriage to Monica, and even crowding into Rachel's hospital room when they went into labor at the same time. —Lanford Beard
Sam McKinney, Diff'rent Strokes (1984–86)
Most people point to The Brady Bunch's Cousin Oliver as the ultimate horrifying example of a newer, supposedly cuter little kid brought in to boost ratings, but give me Diff'rent Strokes' Sam. Wait... no, that's not what I mean. I mean don't give him to me. Because he's super annoying! Truth be told, I can't remember what exactly made that little scamp (Danny Cooksey) so irritating, but every so often I wake up in a cold sweat with the words ''Hey, Mr. D!'' running through my head. And it's that kid's fault. —Dalton Ross
Oliver Trask, The O.C. (2003–04)
Oliver (Taylor Handley) was around for only six episodes, but it seemed like much longer. During his time in Newport Beach, the Marissa-obsessed poor little rich boy faked a girlfriend and a suicide attempt, before sealing his TV-villain fate when he held Marissa hostage. Just the mention of Oliver's name still makes us brood, Ryan Atwood style. —Breia Brissey
Kimmy Gibbler, Full House (1987-1995)
The Tanners' wacky next door neighbor and DJ's best friend was definitely the Urkel of Full House. Danny Tanner (Bob Saget) and Uncle Jesse (John Stamos) always wanted Kimmy (Andrea Barber) to go home, and her outfits — she was fond of neon, patterns, and horizontal stripes — were as loud as her blaring voice. One of her most defining traits: her especially stinky feet. Gibbler, go home! —Stephan Lee
Arnold Horshack, Welcome Back Kotter (1975-1979)
Sounding a bit like a vacuum cleaner trying to suck up a billiard ball, or the cachinnations of a gravely ill hyena, Arnold Horshack's laugh was one of the most grating sounds in television history, possibly beaten only by some unholy Jean Stapleton/Fran Drescher hybrid. Sure, he was the lovable weirdo of the Sweat Hogs, but every time he raised his hand and yelled, ''Oohhh, oohh, oohh, Mr. Kotter!'' you wanted to send him straight to detention. —Keith Staskiewicz
Lutz, 30 Rock (2006–present)
He's not funny, he's not likable and perhaps most importantly, he's not Alec Baldwin. On a show where no character has any real redeemable qualities to begin with, it must say a lot that Lutz is considered the worst. Lazy and unlovable Lutz is the butt of far too many jokes, transcending pity, and passing into cringe-worthy territory. It's oddly self-serving that the characters on 30 Rock can't stand Lutz, because frankly, we can't either. —Marc Snetiker
Will Schuester, Glee (2009–present)
Despite essentially being Glee's main character, the ever-drippy Will Schuester has the intrigue of a blank chalkboard and the personality of a pair of pleated khakis. It's not entirely Matthew Morrison's fault that Will is a needy, whiny, sad sack of a teacher whose body runs on complaints and Activia. But whenever Will is peeving about something or getting in the way of the kids' fun, things just seem a little less gleeful. —Marc Snetiker
April Kepner, Grey's Anatomy (2009-2012)
I will admit, April's lightened up a little this season, but a few episodes of sympathetic behavior can't erase the painful memories of Seattle Grace-Mercy West's most irritating doctor being, well, Seattle Grace-Mercy West's most irritating doctor. Becoming chief resident hasn't made her any less insecure or shrill; instead, she's risen to new heights of boring. Nauseatingly innocent and a self-righteous killjoy, April seems to have existed solely for the purpose of making everyone else on Grey's Anatomy look worlds more interesting. —Marc Snetiker
Susan Mayer-Delfino, Desperate Housewives (2004–2012)
To get to the core of why Susan (Teri Hatcher) is a nuisance, one need look no further than the helpless shrubbery of Wisteria Lane. Susan found herself there — naked — way back in season 1. It was ''zany and adorable'' at the time. And then, while people were dying left and right, Susan continued to find herself in similarly ludicrous approximation of that character-defining stunt for seven more seasons. It's not always about you, sweetie. —Lanford Beard
Screech, Saved by the Bell, Saved by the Bell: The College Years, Saved by the Bell: The New Class (1989-2000)
Brillo-haired Samuel ''Screech'' Powers (Dustin Diamond) was a scrawny misfit whose squeaky voice, nerdy interests, and talent for bungling things made him unbearable — Steve Urkel, but not as smart. Most annoyingly of all, Screech (and Diamond) just didn't know when to quit: The grating character appeared in not one, not two, but all three incarnations of Saved by the Bell. No wonder Lisa Turtle wanted nothing to do with him. —Hillary Busis
Henry Mills, Once Upon a Time (2011-present)
To be fair, Henry's (Jared S. Gilmore) screen time has drastically decreased as Once's freshman year has progressed — and absence makes the heart grow fonder. But throughout the first half of the season, the precocious kid drove viewers up a wall with his exposition-heavy dialogue and penchant for stating the obvious. Sure, the kid is only supposed to be 10 years old — but hasn't he learned what happens to obnoxious children in fairy tales? —Hillary Busis
Dawn Summers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (2000-2003)
Dawn (Michelle Trachtenberg) had issues, and with good reason: The people she loved kept abandoning her, her sister was an ultra-enviable superhero, and, oh yeah, at age 14, she found out that everything she thought she knew was a lie. Still, it was tough to feel sympathy for Dawn as she sulked, complained, and developed an irritating shoplifting problem. Maybe if the teen had whined less, viewers wouldn't have yearned to see her get eaten by some Hellmouth beast. —Hillary Busis
Dr. Peter Benton, ER (1994-2009)
Why did it always seem like there was a bug up the butt of Dr. Peter Benton? We get it — an emergency room isn't the place for a whole lot of Tra La La — but LaSalle's brooding depiction of a talented but rarely satisfied surgeon was a total downer, man. —Lynette Rice
Janice Soprano, Sopranos (1999–2007)
No one in this Mob family could be said to make good choices, but Tony's sister Janice (Aida Turturro) seemed to delight in her selfishness in a way that was just crazymaking. Yes, a mother like hers would have created a monster in anyone, but between that shrill voice, her conniving ways, and her awful choices in men (Ralphie Cifaretto and Richie Aprile, anyone?), I couldn't stand to see Janice onscreen. —Abby West
Meg, Supernatural (2005-2007; 2009-present)
Once upon a time, demon Meg was a formidable foe for the Winchesters. Whether she was infiltrating Sam's life, setting traps for the boys and their father, or possessing Sam's body, her presence meant trouble. But after her first vessel (played by Nicki Aycox) bit the big one, she debuted a new body (Rachel Miner) in season 5. But gone is the deceivingly sweet exterior that made the character a hit. The result? She's gone from sinister to sinfully unnecessary. —EW Staff
Georgina Sparks, Gossip Girl (2008-present)
In season 1, Georgina was a welcomed challenger to Queen B Blair Waldorf. Frankly, it was fun to watch Blair and Co. squirm upon her arrival. But these days, Georgina doesn't seem to have gotten the memo that her once-foes have moved on to adulthood — and so should she. —EW Staff
Kennedy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (2002-03)
Granted, Kennedy (Iyari Limon) had some serious shoes to fill, replacing the dearly departed Tara (Amber Benson) as the new girlfriend for sapphic witch Willow (Alyson Hannigan). But did she have to be such a brat? The Hamptons-bred potential slayer aggressively pushed her way into Willow's heart whether Willow herself was ready for it or not, and stridently called into question Buffy's leadership at the moment when her leadership was most needed. Her one redeeming virtue: Kennedy herself even seemed to know how annoying she really was: ''This might have escaped your keen notice,'' she once told Willow, ''but I'm kind of a brat.'' —Adam B. Vary

Whether it's John Deere green, International red, or another color that sparks your enthusiasm, the Championship Tractor Pull is the place to show your machinery pride. The 45th Championship Tractor Pull at the National Farm Machinery Show, sponsored by Syngenta, is expected to draw sell-out crowds as more than 70,000 fans flock to Freedom Hall in the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center during each day's "pull." The invitation-only contest runs from Wed., Feb. 13 through Saturday, Feb. 16 and draws powerful and innovative machines from both inside and outside of the U.S.
The first Championship Tractor Pull was held in 1969 at the fourth National Farm Machinery Show, making it the oldest large-scale indoor pull in North America. The basketball court in Freedom Hall is converted into the dirt track for the week. Drivers are transformed from mere truck and tractor enthusiasts into something akin to rocket riders wearing fireproof suits and racing helmets. Many competitors are families and friends who work together on their vehicles, performing mechanic duties and serving as the driver in the competitions. Yes, they are attached to their work too—each vehicle in the competition has its own meaningful, frequently humorous, name.
Weight classes
Competitors are divided into weight classes based on the weight and type of vehicle they are driving. The classes include 8,200-lb. Super Stock Tractors, 7,500-lb. Modified Tractors, 10,200-lb. Pro Stock Tractors, 9,300-lb. Super Farm Tractors, 6,200-lb. two-wheel-drive Super Modified Trucks, 8,000-lb. Super Stock Alcohol Tractors, 6,400-lb. Lightweight Super Stock Alcohol Tractors and a new category in 2011 featuring 7,500-lb. 4x4 Super Stock Diesel Trucks.
The driver's objective is to pull a weighted sled the farthest distance down the track. Pulling the full length of the track constitutes a "Full Pull." If two or more drivers in a weight class achieve a Full Pull, additional weight is placed on their sleds. The driver who then pulls the farthest wins. Saturday night finals were added to the National Farm Machinery Show Championship Tractor Pull in 1993. Drivers in many of the categories are required to compete in a semi-final round to earn the right to advance. Drivers say that a strong semi-final showing doesn't mean the championship round will be easy to win. Two categories taking place on Saturday, the 6,400-lb. Lightweight Super Stock Alcohol Tractors, and the 7,500-lb. 4x4 Super Stock Diesel Trucks only compete in one final round.
Even though this may be a "tractor pull," the machinery in Freedom Hall will not look like what you see on the National Farm Machinery Show floor. The vehicles are modified, often with racing parts, to create an extremely powerful (and loud) pulling machine, sometimes utilizing modified airplane engines for extra power.
Championship Tractor Pull attendees are guided by a familiar voice as they follow competitors' progress throughout the event. Walter "Butch" Krieger will be serving his 34th year as the main announcer for the Championship Tractor Pull in 2013. He says the popular event is like a big family homecoming celebration each year. "This is one of the most prestigious tractor pulls in the country. It includes both new, up-and-coming competitors along with guys who have been on the tractor pull circuit for some time. It's a perfect opportunity to see some quality competition. Syngenta does a great job as the sponsor of the event and the facilities are just wonderful," Krieger says.
Exclusive event
It's not easy to get into the Championship Tractor Pull. A selection committee considers many factors as they sort through the elite competitors from around the country who have been accumulating points on the tractor pull circuit. "Most of the guys that compete here have good equipment, but it can be intimidating the first time you compete indoors in this arena. The 250-ft. track and sand pile at the end surprises people sometimes and it can take a while to adjust," Krieger explains.
Krieger says his job is to keep the audience fired up and make sure the spectators have a clear idea how drivers are ranked throughout the event. "I have to do my homework so I can share the information with the audience and tell the competitors' stories," he relates. "I have to inform people about what's going on in the arena, who's winning and the type of tractor and name of the tractor. And I better have the guy's name right and know who is driving the tractor too," he adds.
Tractor pull history
Apparently Krieger is pretty good at keeping the details on-track when it comes to his job. In 2012 he was inducted into the Kentucky Motorsports Hall of Fame. He was one of 13 people, including Fox and Speed Channel NASCAR broadcaster Darrell Waltrip, making up the 2012 Kentucky Motorsports Hall of Fame class.
Krieger started his announcing career in 1974, and has been announcing tractor pulls and drag races throughout the country ever since. He says one nice thing about the National Farm Machinery Show Championship Tractor Pull is that it provides fans with lots of opportunities to talk to the pullers.
Tractor pull fans will have the chance to walk beside the trucks and tractors, meet the drivers, get autographs and take pictures of the vehicles that will compete in the Championship Tractor Pull by visiting The Pit. Open to the public from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. inside Broadbent Arena each day, The Pit gives fans a chance to get a first-hand glimpse of the hard work that goes into preparing the machines for competition. Admission to The Pit is free. The Pit closes at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 16.
When asked what advice he would give to first-time Championship Tractor Pull fans, Krieger encourages people to show their true colors and jump into the excitement of the event. "If you are a John Deere or International fan, get a souvenir t-shirt and don't be afraid to root for your favorite-color tractor," he says.

If you're of a similar age to me you will no doubt recall that one of the best investments you could make with your weekly pocket money was a tube of Toffos. I don't think they still make them but they were individually wrapped round toffees. The connoisseurs' choice was, of course, the assorted tube as it contained the holy grail of toffos – the banana toffo.
'Now this is all very interesting and we'd love to hear more of your reminiscences of sweets past, but what's it got to do with cake?', I hear you ask...good question. The answer is that one bite of this cake dredged up all that dormant Toffo love. This cake tastes of banana toffos!
This is real comfort food cake – the soft sponge is moistened by mashed bananas and to add some bite there is a centre layer of sliced banana and chopped walnuts. I chose to serve it with clotted cream but was very tempted to make some custard cream in homage to the old nursery food favourite of bananas and custard. In the end the clotted cream won out – it seemed to call to me from the supermarket shelf much in the same way that San Francisco did to Tony Bennett.
It's not a light cake – you know you've eaten it. The best way to describe the texture is to say it's like banana bread pudding. It's not dense or heavy but is pleasingly substantial.
3 ripe bananas
150g soft brown sugar
75g unsalted butter
250g self raising flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 eggs
50g walnuts, chopped
To sprinkle on top, once baked: 1 teaspoon each of cinnamon and caster sugar
How to make:
- Preheat the oven to 190°C/fan oven 170°C/375°F/Gas mark 5.
- Line a 20cm round cake tin with baking paper.
- Mash two of the bananas in a small bowl and stir in one tablespoon of the soft brown sugar. Put to one side.
- Gently heat the remaining soft brown sugar and the butter in a saucepan until the butter has melted. The mixture will be gritty but that's fine – you're not looking to melt the sugar. Put to one side to cool slightly.
- Place the flour and cinnamon in a large bowl and make a well in the centre.
- Beat the eggs into the slightly cooled butter/sugar mix and then pour into the flour mixing all the time.
- Stir in the mashed banana and spoon half of the batter into the prepared cake tin.
- Slice the remaining banana and arrange over the batter. Sprinkle the walnuts on top.
- Spoon the rest of the cake batter on top and level the surface.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes of until a skewer comes out cleanly. Mine took 50 minutes.
- Leave to cool in the tin on a wire rack.
- Sprinkle with one teaspoon each of cinnamon and sugar.
- Serve with either clotted cream or custard cream.
- Bask in glory at the wonderful thing you have made.
- Eat.

Ever heard of Crabtown?
I hadn't, but now I have because there's a geocache there (GC195FC). It's one of several submitted in the area by plumberbutt. If you're a FTF hound who feels compelled to rush out tonight, be careful out there in the snow.

Never heard of Crabtown either. I'm going to try and take a day off for caching in pb's area on my way up to the Woodpecker Picnic event on the 16th. I met Plumberbutt recently at an event at Wickiup, and he's a nice guy, and I look forward to his caches in an area that has lacked a good cache population. I think these kinds of placements actually increase attendance at events, because more and new caches that can be done before and after an event, work to increase the attractiveness of the journey! Looking forward to doing these in a week!

In the ongoing battle for smartphone domination in the US, Apple has faced the launch of several supposed "iPhone killers" out to steal its thunder courtesy of manufacturers like LG, HTC, Palm, and others. Now Motorola has entered into the fray, pulling out all the stops with its new Android-powered Motorola Droid smartphone and supporting "Droid Does" campaign, designed to highlight features the handset offers which the iPhone 3G S doesn't.
Not since the debut of the Moto RAZR has the Schaumburg, IL-based company captured the imagination of the American public – or, more specifically, that of the Twitter- and Facebook-savvy Gen Y crowd. It's no small feat, considering that this is the generation who grew up with Web 2.0 and accordingly expect the ability to create, edit, share, and modify pictures, music playlists, and mash-ups of their favorite artists on-demand as part of a shared, "always-on" global community.
While President Obama effectively became a media star with his campaign's use of blogs as an open forum to fuel political debate and engage crowds, the pop culture equivalent of social awareness involves connecting musicians with their fans through electrifying live performances, creating a ripple effect from concert images shared with associates. In other words, today, sending a video clip from a live music concert is a digital postcard from the edge, saying "this is who I am, what I believe in, and what I think is important to me" – right here, right now. And, of course, can translate into millions of SMS and MMS messages sent around the world, a key way for communications and networking companies to grow. Motorola and Verizon Wireless attempted to seize the moment recently by channeling the emotional impact of a live music concert for its "Droid Does" launch on Friday, November 6, supported by promotions on its vCast music service, Twitter and other digital platforms.
You cannot get hipper than a Friday-night event on Manhattan's Lower East Side. This is the location where Madonna , Keith Haring, and Jean-Michel Basquiat gained their notoriety amongst a thriving art scene. It was where New Wave artists like Blondie and the Ramones had their humble beginnings at the now-defunct CBGB's, and where alternative rock bands like Joan Jett, The Killers, The Strokes, and Lady Gaga played the Mercury Lounge. On any given night, you'll find up-and-coming musicians performing in tiny, crowded, sweaty performance spaces at Pianos, the Living Room, Cake Shop, and Arlene's Grocery. The concert venue itself chosen for the Droid's launch, the Angel Orensanz Foundation for the Arts, was a former Jewish synagogue, and restored church from the 19th century German Reform Movement. The modern-day center was founded in the early 90's as an artistic and cultural resource open to artists, writers, thinkers and leaders, and has hosted luminaries such as Philip Glass and Spike Lee, Arthur Miller, Alexander McQueen, Salman Rushdie, and Maya Angelou.
The Motorola/Verizon Wireless Droid launch Red Carpet featured appearances from a wide swath of celebrities including Adrian Grenier from HBO's Entourage, Kim Delaney from ABC's Desperate Housewives, Katrina Bowden from NBC's 30 Rock, Ian Somerhalder from CW's The Vampire Diaries, and model-turned-R&B pop singer Eric West (a nephew of Smokey Robinson, who has performed with the Black Eyed Peas member, Fergie). The highlight of the evening was the live performance by indie rock band, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, featuring lead singer Karen O, drummer Brian Chase, and guitarist Nick Zinner, who gained fame supporting acts like The Strokes and The White Stripes with their avant-punk sound, based on art college bands from their roots at Oberlin College in Ohio. The band's song "Maps" is a playable track in the music video game Rock Band, their song "Zero" was also used in the first trailer of Tony Hawk: Ride at the Microsoft E3 Gaming Press conference, and their song "Heads Will Roll" was featured in TV commercials for MTV's The Hills, which aired during the 2009 Video Music Awards.

Jessica Alba: Brunch With Honor & Haven!
Jessica Alba and hubby Cash Warren take their two daughters, Honor and Haven, to brunch at Dominick's on Saturday (October 8) in West Hollywood, Calif.
The 30-year-old actress pushed a stroller, while Cash carried baby Haven in a car seat.
"She just started smiling," Jess recently told People about the newborn. "[The other] morning Cash was talking in her ear, whispering and kissing her and she was smiling the whole time. It's an amazing connection."
On Thursday, Jessica attended a birthday bash for pal Darren

Baked White Fish with Pine Nut, Parmesan, and Basil Pesto Crust
This Baked White Fish with Pine Nut, Parmesan, and Basil Pesto Crust produces results so spectacular that no one would possibly imagine it's diet food. Serve this with a lovely salad of baby spinach and some type of roasted vegetable and it would be a perfect low-carb or South Beach Diet friendly dinner for any special occasion.
I love hanging out in the kitchen, and I don't mind spending time on projects like making homemade chicken stock, making slow roasted tomatoes, or roasting bell peppers, but I'm not the kind of cook who wants to spend hours on a fussy recipe. I especially love recipes that are easy to prepare but have interesting ingredients with lots of flavor, and this recipe for baked white fish with a crust made of chopped pine nuts, Parmesan, garlic, pesto, and mayo certainly fits that description.
I made this with fillets of halibut, but you can use cod, tilapia, grouper, or any type of mild white fish. This is easy enough to make for dinner after work, but if you make it for dinner guests, they'll probably never guess how easy it was to throw together.
Finely chop the pine nuts, using a large chef's knife, and finely mince one clove of garlic.
Spread the crust evenly over each piece of fish, then bake for 10-15 minutes, or until fish is done and the crust is starting to get lightly browned.
Baked White Fish with Pine Nut, Parmesan, and Basil Pesto Crust
(Makes 2 servings, but recipe can be doubled or tripled. Inspired by a fish recipe from Cooking New American.)
2 white fish fillets, about 6 oz. each (I used halibut but you could use cod, tilapia, grouper, or any mild white fish)
3 T pine nuts
2 T Parmesan Cheese
1/4 tsp. finely minced garlic (1 garlic clove)
1 tsp. basil pesto (I used purchased pesto)
1 1/2 T mayo (use regular or light mayo, not fat-free)
Use a rubber scraper to spread the crust mixture evenly over the surface of each fish fillet. Pile it on so all the crust mixture is used.
Bake fish 10-15 minutes, until fish is firm to the touch and crust mixture is starting to lightly brown. (I baked the fish pieces in the photo for 13 minutes.) Serve hot.

Three Leavenworth United Soccer Club (LUSC) players from the U10 girls team were selected to attend the Wolves North American Academy National Camp in Rome, Ga.
Three Leavenworth United Soccer Club (LUSC) players from the U10 girls team were selected to attend the Wolves North American Academy National Camp in Rome, Ga.
Caitlin Bishop, Brooke Collins and Mia Kensinger attended the regional level camp in June where they earned invitations to the highly-selective national soccer camp at the end of this month.
The upcoming four-day camp is focused on technical instruction and skill development.
The players that attend the national camp can then be selected to attend the Wolves Academy in the United Kingdom.
The Wolves Academy is an 8–10 day soccer identification experience for serious soccer players.
The girl's LUSC coach, Greg Ruff, is thrilled for his developing players.
"Any time you get a chance to play against other players from around the country and Canada, that is a big deal," Ruff said. "You are no longer a big fish in a small pond, you are now a little fish in a big lake."
Ruff knows these kind of opportunities are rare and these young ladies will gather a plethora of new techniques from their global coaches.
"These young ladies just started playing this game around two years ago and to be honored with an invite to a national camp by professional youth soccer coaches from England is a fantastic opportunity to showcase their talents."
And this could be just the start. These sort of opportunities can build upon each other and open other doors to bigger and better things.
"I love soccer so much I could marry the sport," Collins said. "My future plans are that I can be a player in the Women's National League."
Teammate Kensinger, "likes the teams we face up against and meeting new people. And I want to play soccer in college."
Bishop's goal is to be a professional soccer player like Alex Morgan. All three girls met and exceeded the Wolves requirements to be selected for this honor.
"They are the ones that decided to do all the hard work, listen, commit themselves, love the game, and play hard at every opportunity, at every practice," Ruff said. "That is a testament to their desire and fortitude as talented young players. I am proud to be associated with them."

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Twitter is cracking down on images of the execution of journalist James Foley, announcing that it is suspending accounts related to "graphic imagery" from the gruesome killing.
A video showing Foley being beheaded by an ISIS militant has been spreading on social media. Images from the beheading have also been posted on Twitter and other platforms.
The reaction to the images was so strong that Twitter TWTR, -3.07% Chief Executive Dick Costolo tweeted a New York Times account of the killing, announcing, "We have been and are actively suspending accounts as we discover them related to this graphic imagery."
A Twitter campaign using the hashtag #ISISmediaBlackout urged users not to re-post images or video clips of Foley's execution.
"When terrorists or war criminals deliberately advertise their crimes, don't help them," one Twitter image said. "When social media shares gruesome photos widely to report the events, journalists and observers are doing their PR for them and this social media just encourages more of the same brutal behavior."
Twitter's move comes after the San Francisco-based company's decision to remove images of dead people at the request of family members or authorized individuals.
The new policy, which was published last week, came in the wake of highly insensitive posts, including fake images, related to the death of actor Robin Williams. The posts prompted William's daughter, Zelda Williams, to suspend her social media participation.
"In order to respect the wishes of loved ones, Twitter will remove imagery of deceased individuals in certain circumstances," the Twitter policy said.
"Immediate family members and other authorized individuals may request the removal of images or video of deceased individuals, from when critical injury occurs to the moments before or after death, by sending an e-mail to email@example.com," the company said. "When reviewing such media removal requests, Twitter considers public interest factors such as the newsworthiness of the content and may not be able to honor every request."

Parenthood clearly agrees with Wayne Rooney and his wife Coleen.
The couple looked happier than ever as they attended a charity bash for Manchester United at the weekend.
Stunning in a classic LBD, Coleen - who welcomed baby Kai just two weeks ago - was showing no signs of sleepless nights or extra baby weight as she supported her husband and his team-mates.
Joining them at the star-studded bash was a host of Manchester United footie hunks, including Ryan Giggs and his wife, Michael Owen, and big boss Alex Ferguson.
This was the tenth annual event for Unicef's HIV prevention campaign, which the players have helped raised more than two million pounds for.

Catalog Spotlight! Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam ~ !Post Reply
On a personal note I think Gundam Wing was still my favorite series.
Zeta Gundam was pretty amazing though. It continued shortly after the 1 year war of the original Gundam series but was still had it's own story to tell without dragging out TOO much of the original series. The darker turn Zeta took compared to the original was pretty notable. Kamile Bidan went through two models of Gundam through the whole series which I think was neat since it helps illustrate the evolution of MS technology that was going on during that point. Things were changing so fast you would almost think that these MSs were PCs as far as how relatively quick they became outdated. Towards the end of the series even the Gundam MK 2(Kamile's starting MS) needed a serious upgrade to stand a chance.
Hopefully these friday Gundam deals will be some cool model kits. I would love a good excuse to expand my MS collection!

If anime had an award show here in America like the VGAs and they did a anime hall of fame I believe Gundam should be the first to be put in if not the first I still believe it should still be put in seeing as how it defined the real robot series and how a war story is suppose to be like. I also like how it brought in issues that we still deal with today like political, race, and religion it also showed that war is very traumatizing because if you look at the characters in the series you cant say that the war they were in did not leave some kind of scar which in my opinion Gundam 00 showed that quiet well.
What I most loved about Zeta is that they designed all sorts of cool mechanisms. They took the "anatomy"(?) of ALL the mecha even more seriously than they did in the original Gundam.
Zeta is only preceded by the original 1979 Mobile Suit Gundam Series. There are a few that were released years afterward that shine light on some of the interwar period. I haven't watched those, however. The 79' Gundam series is very similar to the 2004-2009 Battlestar Galactica series, if you like Battlestar. As far the alternate universes, they are great and enjoyable but not necessary.
I will add that Season 1 of Gundam 00 mirrors Gundam Wing very well while Season 2 falls in line with Zeta Gundam.
Cruchyroll you should also try and get the other Gundams too like ZZ Gundam, Turn A, After War Gundam X, Victory, and AGE since those are the only ones that are not available legally well AGE is, but only to like two regions. -___-
Come on Sunrise please let this happen. Please add the classics! T^T
Life is a bitch, so if its easy you're doing it wrong
this is awesome!!!
IG: chubbyasianlover :)
Zeta Gundam is awesome. Now get Double-Zeta, its the only one I haven't seen.
I can't completely say you're wrong, as most of the UC gundam series correlate with each other; but if you watch any of the alternate universe gundam, (Seed Wing,00, G, Turn A, X and... I think there's one more I'm forgetting) These can be watched individually and still enjoyed. If you're into anime where mecha are the key point of battle, then the Gundam franchise is definitely a great part of that experience!
Gundam X was the only gundam series to be cancelled. I don't know if Sunrise considers that one the red headed step gundam or not... I think since it made it into Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3 that it might be ok though.

I agree! I would also like to add that you should not be confused about whether ZZ Gundam is an anime or not. Despite it's misleading theme song, I have it on good authority that it actually IS an anime. An anime that you should pick up and put in the anime section of your website, and definitely not the drama one. I don't pay for the drama membership anymore, so I would hate to see ZZ Gundam picked up and put in that category because someone on the staff watched the first episode and then was like "Uh oh, this opening song says that this show is NOT an anime, I'd better not put it in that section."
Zeta gundam was good actually really good. I only wish that series such has ms igloo would get more shine. But nonetheless im happy for how far gundam has come. zeig zeon!
Move forward for the ideals of zeon!

If you're looking for a traditional Gundam series that you can just jump into I'd recommend the original(simply titled Mobile Suit Gundam), Gundam Seed, or Gundam 00. All three are available legally online, though Seed is only available on Youtube and not Crunchyroll.
I'd second watching SEED. The original isn't all that bad, all things considered aside from maybe that STUPID STUPID plot twist regarding Kira and Cagalli (Those two had by far, the most natural chemistry in the show. Yes, I'm STILL ticked about what could have been an interesting relationship.)
Just don't watch Destiny. If you absolutely, positively have to watch Destiny, watch the compilation movies or better yet, go play the original Super Robot Taisen Z! (Even Shinn's VA, Kenichi Suzumura, admitted that the game's portrayal of Shinn is much better and closer to what he pictured Shinn being like when he was voicing him!)

That's incorrect, the original was also cancelled as well. Both luckily were able to come up with an ending in the time allotted, but it really hurt Gundam X, since what was supposed to be about a 13 episode arc was squeezed into 3. Gundam X doesn't get a whole lot of love, despite for me being the best AU gundam series. However, I think the show that Bandai/Sunrise has snubbed the most would be Victory Gundam.
Rejoice Emiya Shirou, your anime has come true.
First saw this series dubbed on Youtube and despite the aged animation, it is better than most of the stuff being aired now and a great plot making one my favorites of the UC continuity. Would be more happy if they could get the original OP & EDs but nevertheless happy its up.

Zeta is older than me and it is still my favorite MSG seires period.

1) Is there a difference between A and B when it comes to stuff like:
Battle Continuation
Madness Enhancement
They look like they are saying the same thing.
2) Is it my imagination or the Archer class Noble Phantasm is exceptional?

On the Archer class I think is because so far we haven't seen an actual archer. We see people who fire lots of things at the same time and only one of them has been actually using a bow. Even so EMIYA does use two swords as his main weapons. So really will be more like the Archer Class Servant is meant to be never summoning a proper archer. I mean Lancer has a spear, Saber a sword but an Archer with a bow? That is just silly

Because archers are summoned with physical optimization to be a ranged combatant. Caster is a similar case where they only fire ranged. The only difference is the manner in which they create these ranged attacks. The Archers use their noble phantasms and the casters use their magic.
Asking an Archer to be purely reliant on their physical capabilities to win in the holy grail war is like asking a gunfighter to win in a martial arts tournament featuring the world champs of every other hand to hand discipline in the world.
Even if hercules were to be summoned as archer, I doubt he'd be as strong as his berserker form. His physical strength would probably drop to B instead of A and his other parameters would get similar modifications.
At least that is my impression of the grail's servant class system.

Not just nine lives either, archer Herc got given some NP by Nasu that let him beat the Hydra pretty easily, it was something like shooting so many arows at once that it destroyed (yes destroyed not just hit, like as in "Kaboom") all of it's 100 heads at once killing it, the common opinion is that Herc just sits in the Einzbern Castle and uses that on anyone walking by and wins the war with ease.
And yeah max we get the Archer in extra that everyone would expect to be an Archer so he's a proper one alright

Herc would probably be worse as a Saber as he's keep his Legendary strength.
Archer Herc might get a nasty anti-army NP (detroying 100 heads would probably count as anti-army than anything else), but Saber Herc? Ouch.

That chain Gilgamesh uses is actually really bad. It only works with divine blood. So Servants like Hercules, Lancer or Iskandar will never be able to break free because they have some level of divinity. But for the other Servants the chain will be just a normal chain, not a super awesome antigod device. Or so I hear.

Miley Cyrus Hosts the CMT Music Awards 2008
Miley Cyrus (in Roberto Cavalli) rocks a very mature look at the 2008 CMT Music Awards at the Curb Events Center at Belmont University on Monday in Nashville, Tennessee.
The 15-year-old Hannah Montana star hosted the awards ceremony with her country superstar father Billy Ray Cyrus.
WHAT DO YOU THINK of Smiley's floor-grazing gown? Too womanly? Or just right?
