Lady Gaga Rumored to Be the New Face of Versace
It's about time! Lady Gaga is rumored to be the new face of Versace for the brand's spring/summer ad campaign.
Well, the fact that Gaga penned an ode to Donatella Versace, called 'Donatella,' on 'ARTPOP' was our first clue. Plus, Gaga is often seen wearing Versace fashions, as she did here. She also hired the house to do the costumes for her doomed Born This Way Ball tour in the U.S. And she lurves posing topless with Donatella. Don't they look like sisters?
It just makes sense.
Vogue – they would know, as the fashion bible —reports that Mert & Marcus snapped Gaga while she was in London. Remember when she was alternating between Botticelli babe, Mary Poppins and a ghost while across the pond?
The brand's spring and summer collection was different, with a tough, leather-clad biker girl image. Gaga could certainly front a campaign with those stylistic elements.
We hope it's true. Gaga x Versace would be a well-matched pair. Much better than Elizabeth Berkley in 'Showgirls,' who famously mispronounced it as "Ver-sayce."

Fox News reportedly "now expresses regret for booking" Andy Martin -- but what about Hannity?
Research ››› ››› ANDREW WALZER & LILY YAN
The Washington Post's Howard Kurtz reported that Fox News Channel "now expresses regret for booking [Andy] Martin," who has a history of making anti-Semitic and racially charged comments, on Hannity's America. Kurtz wrote: "[Fox News Senior Vice President Bill] Shine says Hannity disagrees with some of Martin's past comments. 'Having that guy on was a mistake,' Shine says. " But Hannity himself defended Martin's appearance on his show and has not expressed regret on either Hannity's America or Hannity & Colmes for having hosted Martin.
In an October 27 article, Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz reported that Fox News Channel "now expresses regret for booking [Andy] Martin" -- who, as Media Matters for America has noted, has, among other things, referred to a judge as a "crooked, slimy Jew" and accused African-Americans of being "willing to corrupt and abuse their public offices" -- on the October 5 edition of Fox News' Hannity's America. As Media Matters documented, Sean Hannity hosted Martin -- identified by Hannity as an "Internet journalist" -- to make what Hannity called "the explosive claim that [Sen. Barack] Obama's role as a community organizer was a political staging ground perpetuated by the unrepentant terrorist William Ayers." Kurtz wrote: "[Fox News Senior Vice President Bill] Shine says Hannity disagrees with some of Martin's past comments. 'Having that guy on was a mistake,' Shine says. 'We obviously didn't do enough research on who the guest was.' " But according to searches of the Nexis and Factiva databases, Hannity himself has not expressed regret or acknowledged having made a mistake regarding Martin on either Hannity's America or Hannity & Colmes, both Fox News shows.
Indeed, when confronted by Robert Gibbs, an adviser to Obama's campaign, on October 7, Hannity defended Martin's appearance on Hannity's America, even though he acknowledged to Gibbs that Martin's comments about Jews are "despicable."
Moreover, as Media Matters noted, at no point during the report featuring Martin did Hannity question any of Martin's assertions or note Martin's history of smears against Obama and his anti-Semitic and racially charged comments.
On the October 7 edition of Fox News' Hannity & Colmes, Gibbs said to Hannity: "On your show on Sunday ... the show that's named after you ... [t]he centerpiece of that show was a guy named Andy Martin." Gibbs added that "Andy Martin called a judge a 'crooked, slimy Jew' " and that "Martin went on to write that he understood better why the Holocaust took place." During the exchange, Hannity said: "When I interviewed Malik Shabazz, when I interviewed Al Sharpton, when I interviewed all these controversial figures -- you see, on Fox, we actually interview people of all points of view, whether we agree or disagree." Gibbs later asked, "Why am I not to believe that you're anti-Semitic? Why am I not to believe that everybody who works for the network is anti-Semitic because Sean Hannity gives a platform to somebody who thinks Jews are 'slimy'?" Hannity, who told Gibbs that Martin's anti-Semitic comments are "despicable," further asserted: "Mr. Gibbs, I'm a journalist who interviews people who I disagree with all the time, that give their opinion. Fox has all points of view. We're allowing you on the program, and I don't agree with hardly anything Obama says." (As Media Matters noted, Hannity has previously said he is not a journalist.)
From Kurtz's October 27 article:
An early October edition of his weekend show, "Hannity's America," was built around Andy Martin, a conservative writer who maintains an anti-Obama Web site. Martin said on the show that Obama's community-organizing work in Chicago was "training for a radical overthrow of the government." The onetime political candidate has a history of making controversial statements. In a 1983 personal bankruptcy case, according to the Chicago Tribune, he referred to a judge as a "crooked, slimy Jew" and described Holocaust survivors in a filing as "operating as a wolf pack." Martin has denied holding anti-Semitic views.
The program drew a blast from [MSNBC's Countdown host, Keith] Olbermann, who called it "Stalinist," "desperate," "panicky" and based on "a transparent nut job."
Fox, which initially defended the show, now expresses regret for booking Martin, who was interviewed by a producer. Shine says Hannity disagrees with some of Martin's past comments. "Having that guy on was a mistake," Shine says. "We obviously didn't do enough research on who the guest was."

(Phoenix, Ariz. – July 25, 2007) Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard was elected Chair of the Conference of Western Attorneys General (CWAG) today during the organization's Summer Meeting held in Anaheim, Calif.
"The Western States Attorneys General have an excellent track record of working together for the benefit of our citizens," Goddard said. "CWAG has been a catalyst for new ideas and strategies, and I am honored to lead this outstanding organization."
Goddard will serve as CWAG Chair through July 2008. Goddard today told the membership that one of his top priorities will be to strengthen the relationship between
U.S. Attorneys General with their law enforcement counterparts in Mexico.
"We have made great strides in recent years in addressing issues of mutual concern such as auto theft," Goddard said. "Together we can work more effectively to reduce human trafficking and drug smuggling, crimes that devastate families and neighborhoods on both sides of the border."
Goddard was elected to a second term as Arizona Attorney General in 2006. Since taking office in 2003, he has led the fight against meth use and has focused on consumer protection issues, including identity theft, cyber crime, predatory lending and deceptive advertising.
Earlier in his public service career, Goddard was elected Mayor of Phoenix four times, leading the City from 1984 to 1990. During his time as Mayor, he was named "Municipal Leader of the Year" by City and County Magazine and was elected President of the National League of Cities.
Goddard is an Arizona native, born and raised in Tucson. He served an active duty tour in the Navy and retired as a Commander after 27 years in the Naval Reserves. He and his wife Monica live in Phoenix with their young son.
CWAG is a bipartisan group comprised of the chief legal officers of 15 western states and three Pacific territories. Members include Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The Conference also includes the Pacific jurisdictions of American Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and Guam.

In this podcast, Brad Thomas Parsons, author of "Bitters: A Spirited History of a Classic Cure-All," discusses the history of the elixir from its earliest "snake oil" days to its rise as an essential ingredient in the contemporary bar scene.
The event, "Adventures in the Global Kitchen: Demystifying Bitters," took place at the Museum on February 20, 2013. The talk was presented in conjunction with the exhibition, "Our Global Kitchen: Food, Nature, Culture," which is open through August 11, 2013.

American reported stabbed to death in Egypt during protests
A U.S. citizen, reportedly employed by an American school in Alexandria, was fatally stabbed Friday in that city after being caught in clashes between supporters and opponents of embattled Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi.
Local news accounts gave differing names for the victim. The U.S. Embassy did not respond to requests for comment.
Gen. Amin Ezz al Din, the head of security in Alexandria, said the man, whom he identified as 21 years old, was killed about 3:30 p.m. as he was filming clashes "with a small camera." Din said the victim was swept up in a fight and was stabbed in the chest "with some sort of machete."
Protesters dragged his body to an ambulance where paramedics declared him dead, Din said. A Health Ministry official also confirmed an American death but provided no details.
"Those who killed him and others are suspected thugs," Din told McClatchy.
Reached by phone, Marc J. Sievers, the U.S. deputy chief of mission in Cairo, said questions about a possible dead American at 10 p.m. were "really inappropriate."
"We have a press office for that," he said, before hanging up.
About an hour later, the U.S. Embassy in Cairo tweeted: "We are seeking to confirm report of American death in alexandria. thank you for concern."
There were several versions of the victim's name and the school where he worked. McClatchy could not confirm any of the reports. At one of the schools, an official declined to comment.
Alexandria has been particularly hostile during protests, especially to foreigners taking pictures. But it was not certain whether his filming events played a role in his death.

Let's face facts here. When it comes to picking out the best clothes to wear, men are considered, and rightly so, to be less fashion-conscious of the two sexes. Now for the good news, that is starting to change with more fashion designers showing off all new designs and collections on their runways. It doesn't hurt that men are beginning to realize that looking good doesn't exactly hurt their chances with women or their careers either.
Unfortunately for some guys, fashion is something that happens to other people. Expecting a guy who less than marginable fashion sense to know why a Hawaiian shirt is the best thing to wear to a job interview or a high school reunion is likely to end in disappointment and probably a few more than embarrassing looks and stares.
So, for the benefit of bad dressing guys reading this, here are a few of the most basic of mistakes guys make when entering the frightening sphere of fashion.
- Sandals with socks – Stay away from this fashion no-no at all costs. It is an all together fashion mess. No women will find you attractive. You'll begin to notice that your friends call you less and less and strangers won't even want to stand near you with this foot fashion faux paus. If your love for sandals is this strong then move somewhere warm that you can wear sandals year round.
- Novelty Ties, shirts, or boxers – This is another fashion mess that men just don't seem to notice or maybe not care. Why would you sacrifice your dignity for the sake of making someone laugh from a "funny t-shirt"? It isn't worth it, in my opinion. I would much rather be known for being stylish and a good dresser than the guy who wears shirts with funny sayings on them. So with that, throw out all those clothes with smiley faces, hearts, reindeer, shamrocks, and animal prints and buy something nice.
- Shiny shirts and suits – Come on…for real? Unless you are going to be a backup dancer in a musical then there should be no reason why you should even own a shiny shirt or suit much less wear one out in public. I can think of about a hundred different fashion choices you could go to the club in than a glittery, shiny and REALLY tacky shirt. What's wrong with a simple form fitting black t-shirt or black dress shirt? Pair it up with some nice jeans or trousers and you'll have no problem being noticed in a good way.
- Ugly colors – You can look like Brad Pitt with the fashion sense of a George Clooney but if you're wearing some ugly colored clothes no one will care who you look like. That great looking new suit you bought for you Christmas party this year may have been expensive but if it makes you look like one of the staff or something from the 70's, then I'm sorry but you paid too much. The color of your clothes needs to compliment your best natural features like eye color, skin tone and body shape.
- Overly loose fitting clothes – Clothes that are really loose or baggy make you look sloppy and like a bum. Unless you rap or own your own hip hop label, which you probably don't, then you need to stay away from this fashion mistake. Instead buy clothes that actually fit you. You've been working out so why not buy some clothes that show it off. Try experimenting mixing and matching certain cuts and styles until you comes across the perfect fit and look.

If you're totally sick of primaries, TV ads, and constant commentator comments, there are some books you could read instead. Some are by also rans, but no matter. You might get a few laughs, or a good night's sleep.
First, the ones by past presidential hopefuls.
Michele Bachmann — "Core of Convictions" — lots of strong convictions.
Herman Cain — "This Is Herman Cain" — no surprise here.
Rick Perry — "Fed Up" — I bet he is.
Then a few by some still in the fray.
Rick Santorum — "It Takes a Family" — no gays allowed in these families.
Newt Gingrich — "A Country Like No Other" — one of way too many books.
Ron Paul — "The Revolution" and "End The Fed" — predictable.
Mitt Romney — "No Apology" — a very, very long campaign speech.
Of course, we can't leave out the one by our own governor, Nikki Haley. After one year in office, with basically no accomplishments and a plummeting approval rating, her book is ready for your amusement. The title, "Can't Is Not An Option" shows how much she likes slogans, such as "This is a great day in South Carolina, whether they have any truth or not. Perhaps her idol, Joan Jett, could write a song for her. In the article about Nikki in "Marie Claire" she claimed Joan Jett, Hillary Clinton and Margaret Thatcher as role models. An eclectic group. Many years ago, when I saw Joan Jett, she came barreling onto the stage on a motorcycle singing "I Don't Give A Damn About My Bad Reputation." Quite a performer.
Why would you want to spend time reading any of these books? Because of a great Aristotle quote — "The mark of an educated mind is to entertain an idea without accepting it." It's not a bad idea to know the ideas and writing of those you hope are on their way to the forgotten land.
Another interesting political book, soon to be a movie, is "Game Change." It tells the story of the 2008 campaign for president, and is chock full of stories about all the participants.
A few of my favorite political books are not so specific, but more philosophical.
William Irwin Thompson — "Self and Society" — a big view of human nature.
Arnold Mindell — "The Leader As Martial Artist" — an interesting view of a leader.
These two books make one think about the big picture. They are well worth the time it takes to read them.
This winter, I spend long evenings with the book "The Black Swan" by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. It's slow going, and always thought provoking. According to the book jacket, a black swan is an event, positive or negative, that is deemed improbable yet causes massive consequences. He shows how Black Swan events explain almost everything in our world, and yet the experts are blind to them. The Daily Telegraph called it "a rigorous meditation on the modern world."
This modern world desperately needs a rigorous meditation, much more than 30-second sound bites repeated ad nauseum. It's only January, and we have a long, long year ahead. November is nine months away. So I vote for books that might turn your mind on end. As W.B. Yeats wrote "We had fed the heart on fantasies — the heart's grown brutal from the fare." Books could be the cure.

Declension from first love
Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Revelation 2:4
Suggested Further Reading: John 15:9-14
There are some people who always live upon what they have been. I speak very plainly now. There is a brother in this church who may take it to himself; I hope he will. It is not very many years ago since he said to me, when I asked him why he did not do something. Well, I have done my share; I used to do this, and I have done the other; I have done so and so.†Oh, may the Lord deliver him, and all of us, from living on has beens. It will never do to say we have done a thing. Suppose, for a solitary moment, the world should say, I have turned round; I will stand still. Let the sea say, I have been ebbing and flowing these many years; I will ebb and flow no more. Let the sun say, I have been shining, and I have been rising and setting for many days; I have done this enough to earn me a goodly name; I will stand still; and let the moon wrap herself up in veils of darkness, and say, have illuminated many a night, and I have lighted many a weary traveller across the moors; I will shut up my lamp and be dark for ever. Brethren, when you and I cease to labour, let us cease to live. God has no intention to let us live a useless life. But mark this; when we leave our first works, there is no question about our having lost our first love; that is sure. If there be strength remaining, if there be still power mentally and physically, if we cease from our office, if we abstain from our labours, there is no solution of this question which an honest conscience will accept, except this, Thou hast lost thy first love, and, therefore, thou hast neglected thy first works.
For meditation: Past love is no substitute for present expressions of it (Philemon: 5-7,20). Present work is no guarantee that love cannot be lost in the future (Philemon: 24; 2 Timothy 4:10).
Sermon no. 217 29 September (Preached 26 September 1858)

Defeat doesn't dim 49ers' bright future
New Orleans --
The 49ers careened off Bourbon Street on Sunday, took a wrong turn and wound up at Heartbreak Hotel.
The Big Easy came down hard on the boys from the bay.
Ravens 34, 49ers 31.
"It's kind of tough, man, to get this far and let everything slip away," said 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks. "Wasn't our day, man."
The 49ers' glorious dream of adding one last frosty can to the plastic ring, giving the 49ers' a golden six-pack of Super Bowl victories in six tries, died with Baltimore's goal-line stand.
Jim Harbaugh screamed for a holding penalty on the 49ers' last-gasp play, and nobody throws a better tantrum, but it was a night when a lot of stuff didn't get called, for both teams.
In the end, in this town, you must accept your fate. Sometimes the voodoo works for you; sometimes it bites you in the butt.
This will be a hard one for the 49ers and their fans to shake off. For the third straight playoff game, the 49ers staged a furious comeback, and it would have been truly epic, but it didn't quite happen.
Now, with humble hearts and king-hell hangovers, the 49ers stagger home without a trophy.
Thrills and agonies
After the game, an army of joyous Joe Flaccos and rowdy Ray Lewises - middle-aged Baltimore fans wearing their heroes' jerseys - descended on the French Quarter with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind.
"I got two tickets to paradise!" Ravens safety Ed Reed warbled into his postgame interview mike. He was no Eddie Money, but Ed was money.
Meanwhile, unhappy Colin Kaepernicks and disgruntled Frank Gores - 49ers faithful in their team gear - slunk off to eat crow, or gobble leftover jive turkey.
For the 49ers, there simply was no overcoming a disastrous first half. Their first half was, in terms of effort and efficiency, FEMA-like. The 49ers were a streetcar named perspire.
They clawed back, as they had in previous playoff games against the Packers (down 7-0) and Falcons (down 17-0). On Sunday, they spotted the Ravens a 28-6 lead early in the second half. Came roaring back. Lost.
How tragic is it?
Something's happening here
Well, we hereby interrupt the weeping and wailing of 49ers faithful, and the profound gloom of the players, with a reminder that this was one sensational season. If anyone feels cheated, they might be missing the point.
Something special has been happening with the San Francisco professional football team. Sunday was a Mount Everest of a speed bump, but the 49ers are for real. Have been since Jim Harbaugh arrived before last season, and show no sign that will change anytime soon.
Right now, it's a time for players and fans to decide whether to celebrate what was in many ways a miraculous return to the glory of old, and a near-miraculous comeback, or to mourn a squandered platinum opportunity to stake a claim as the NFL's greatest team and franchise.
Take your time. Break up into discussion groups. You've got a few months to stew over this one. BYO Pepto-Bismol.
It was a crusher. The 49ers had the sport's hottest young coach in Harbaugh, and coolest new superstar in Kaepernick, but both of them had a bad-hair half. Harbaugh was outcoached by his older bro, John, and Kaepernick was schooled by the boring old quarterback on the other team, a graying dude named Joe.
Yes, it stings that there is now another Super Joe, another Joe Cool. Joe Flacco didn't erase the memory of Joe Montana and his Super Bowl exploits, but the Ravens' quarterback was Montana-esque in the clutch.
He got better protection than the pope or Paul McCartney, and Flacco was on his superb game, picking apart the 49ers in the first half like a vulture picks apart roadkill.
He was lights-out, until the 34-minute second-half power failure that left the Superdome bathed in romantic mood lighting. I'm betting the power blow will be traced back to San Francisco's PG&E, who turned the lights out in a game last season at "Candlelight Park."
For power, the Superdome folks could have used the 49ers' defense, which was getting lit up.
Kaepernick keeps his cool
Kaepernick struggled early, but you can't call it a choke. He completed a 20-yard laser on the first scrimmage play of the game, only to lose it on a penalty. The Turlock Tornado wasn't a winner, but he is a winner.
Not since Joe Namath guaranteed that his Jets would upset the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III has a young quarterback brought this level of buzz to a Super Bowl. Namath delivered. Kaepernick, in just his 10th NFL start, did, too ... until the end.
The big moment did not get the best of Kaepernick. A long pass on the final drive might have made the difference, but Vernon Davis couldn't handle Kaepernick's on-the-money bomb.
Mistakes were made. The best team won. And now it's time to take stock.
Since Jed York hired Harbaugh, the team has been a brand-new and shiny deal. The 49ers missed the Super Bowl by one game last season, and in two seasons they are 27-9-1, including three ultra-dramatic playoff wins. Sunday's sobering defeat notwithstanding, there is nothing to indicate that this team isn't for real, that it won't continue to be a force.
Step back and look at it as you would view an oil painting, ignoring minor flaws, and ask yourself:
With the momentary exception of the Baltimore Ravens, who's got it better than us? Seriously.

Wabash Mourns Han Jiangby Jim Amidon • March 10, 2006 Share:
Wabash College is sad to report the loss of Han Jiang, who was killed in an automobile accident Thursday afternoon. Jiang, a junior from Beijing, China, was a passenger in the car driven by his Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity brother, Benyam Alemneh. Jiang's countryman and fraternity brother, Feng Mai, was also a passenger in the car.
Benyam Alemneh and Feng Mai sustained head and face injuries, and were treated and released at St. Clare Medical Center.
"All of us at Wabash are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of Han Jiang," said Wabash President Andrew T. Ford. "We extend our sympathies to his family in China and to his classmates and fraternity brothers here at Wabash."
Han Jiang graduated from Beijing Experimental High School, one of the strongest magnet schools in all of Beijing. He later attended the No. 2 Medical University in Shanghai for a year prior to his admission to Wabash in the fall of 2003.
At Wabash, Han was a mathematics and physics double major. He was also a member of the International Student Association and was Scholarship Chairman for his fraternity, Tau Kappa Epsilon.
Han was the son of Bo Jiang, a diplomat formerly stationed at the Chinese Consulate in Chicago, and Ying Huang, who works for the Ministry of Education in China.

Support coordination is critical for finding and coordinating the necessary services, supports and resources within the community that are required by children and adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities1 and their families.
People with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities and their families often have a hard time finding and coordinating the services, supports and resources they need to ensure a high quality of life and full inclusion in the community. Service systems can be complex, challenging to navigate and are often critically underfunded. Determining funding sources for necessary services can be extremely difficult.
In many areas of the country, resources for support coordination, also referred to as service coordination, are limited or have restrictive financial or diagnostic eligibility criteria. Some support coordinators have large "caseloads" with more people than they can fully serve. There may be high staff turnover. Support Coordinators may not be aware of universal and natural support systems that are available to all citizens.
People with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities and their families must have ongoing access to effective, responsive, affordable, reliable, and culturally appropriate individual service coordination as needed.
As support coordinators help design, coordinate, and monitor supports and services, they must:
Support coordination must be funded at a level that supports an appropriate caseload. Support coordinators must be provided with ongoing skills development; opportunities to build capacity through peer networks; and equipped with up to date, unbiased knowledge of community resources.

In several papers (Ames et al., 1987; Ames et al., 1995; Ames et al., 1990a; Gold et al., 1999; Gold et al., 1992), we have emphasized the importance of setting research and regulatory priorities by gaining a broad perspective about the vast number of chemicals to which humans are exposed. A comparison of potential hazards using a simple index can be helpful in efforts to communicate what might be important factors in cancer prevention and when selecting chemicals for chronic bioassay, mechanistic, or epidemiologic studies (Ames et al., 1987; Ames et al., 1990b; Gold et al., 1992; Gold et al., 1997). There is a need to identify what might be the important cancer hazards among the ubiquitous exposures to rodent carcinogens in everyday life.

'Wicked Single': Pahty hahd
I like the way Nikki in "Wicked Single'' says that girls should keep their mouths shut when watching a game with guys. She's right. Look, if you want guys to like you, you've got to be able to sit still, chest forward, and look pretty. And by pretty, I mean having a peanut-butter-colored tan, incandescent hair, and shaved eyebrows that leave a light fossil imprint on the lower forehead.
Nikki is the Snooki figure on VH1's new "Jersey Shore''-like reality show, which premieres on Sunday at 11 p.m (also showing on MTV at the same time). She is the breakout character, and I, for one, am hoping that when "Wicked Single'' hits it big, and becomes the next major TV sensation, Nikki will make it onto the talk-show circuit and into the publishing world. Maybe Rutgers University will pay her $32,000 to speak, just as they did Snooki in 2011. Maybe, if we're lucky, some uber-creative reality producer will give us "Snooki 'n' Nikki: Accent on Fun.''
After all, Nikki and the five other "Wicked Single'' stars are exactly how Boston should be known across the country. Really we couldn't ask for better branding than this show, which provides a glimpse of the kind of nightlife some of us have and all of us secretly want. What fun to hang with Chubs — named after his belly, you dirty mind — and watch him get crazy loaded and gyrate on the dance floor with his shirt off and sweat dripping off his body. When Chubs downs a bunch of RBVs — Red Bull and vodkas — and gets loose with the music like a happy donkey, it's legendary. Lucky are the ladies who end up in his bedroom with green towels tacked onto the windows. You've got to admire a guy who can slap a girl like Chelsi in the butt and leave a mark for three weeks.
But wait, "Wicked Single'' doesn't just portray the joyous side of life, with loud bar conversations and, two times with Nikki, falling down. It's not a superficial show, no matter what the critics may say. There are complex dramatic moments in the premiere, particularly revolving around Nikki's bestest-ever best friend in the world, Rachel, who has been sorely mistreated by her former roommate Jaime. Rachel and Jaime have confrontations in clubs, with Jaime being all, "You are so mean,'' which is so totally not true. Rachel is not a drama queen who likes to create the kinds of big train-wreck scenes that fuel reality shows such as "The Real Housewives'' series, I don't care what people say. She's a sweetheart who just wants to be loved. Is that so wrong?
The romantic lead is Joe, who lives with Chubs in a bachelor pad they call — this is so funny — Club Med. He and Rachel (who looks a little like Elisabeth Hasselbeck, a little like a blond Sandra Bernhard) kind of sort of maybe have chemistry, but Joe still likes to play the field. "I hook up with a lot of girls,'' he admits. Or as Chelsi puts it, "I don't know how he pulls tail like he does, but he kills it.'' At 24, Chelsi is the youngest member of the "Wicked Single'' group, and she is in no rush to get into a relationship. "I'd rather have an awesome time and laugh,'' she says, "and create deplorable behavior.''
So thank you, VH1, for throwing these people together for a few lessons in life, love, and vodka. So what if their Boston accents aren't nearly perfect. Team Boston appreciates your effort.

The paycheck cycle we've talked about before remains extreme. It is our responsibility to figure out how to sell in that environment, adjusting pack sizes, large pack at sizes the beginning of the month, small pack sizes at the end of the month. And to figure out how to deal with what is an ever-increasing amount of transactions being paid for with government assistance.
And you need not go further than one of our stores on midnight at the end of the month. And it's real interesting to watch, about 11 p.m., customers start to come in and shop, fill their grocery basket with basic items, baby formula, milk, bread, eggs,and continue to shop and mill about the store until midnight, when electronic — government electronic benefits cards get activated and then the checkout starts and occurs. And our sales for those first few hours on the first of the month are substantially and significantly higher.
And if you really think about it, the only reason somebody gets out in the middle of the night and buys baby formula is that they need it, and they've been waiting for it. Otherwise, we are open 24 hours — come at 5 a.m., come at 7 a.m., come at 10 a.m. But if you are there at midnight, you are there for a reason.Wal-Mart has made available the presentation and a full transcript of this talk, so you can glean more from the full context. This is a wonderful example--for speakers and speechwriters--on how to take a dry, dismal technical topic and make it relevant to anyone. It's no mistake that these three paragraphs have been widely circulated on the web in less than a week.

As we enter March Madness once again, I'm reposting an entry I wrote last year about the implications of gambling on college basketball. Even among America's religious, gambling has almost completely lost its stigma as sinful, but continues to be regulated by governments and in the workplace.
magerleagues / Flickr
Ethics violation: all it takes is a printout and a pen.
That $5 March Madness bracket could cost a lot more… exposing participants to ethical violations at work and encouraging more serious gambling habits.
The NCAA basketball tournament is among the most popular sporting events to bet on; the association estimates 1 in 10 Americans will fill out a bracket.
In 2010, the government has blocked employees from online bracket sites, reminding them that gambling at a federal workplace is illegal, even if it's just spending a few bucks on a friendly office bracket.
It's also illegal in most states, including Texas. Here's what the Texas District & County Attorneys Association had to say:
Technically, all office pools are illegal in Texas because you're wagering on the final result of a game or contest, a clear violation of §47.02(a)(1). The real issue is whether the exception applies, specifically whether your office is a private place. Office pools that don't involve the outcome of a game or contest are usually not illegal under the statute. For instance, wagering on how many smoke breaks a coworker in your office will take in the next four hours is perfectly legal and at times, entertaining. However, unless you shut your doors to the public in March for college basketball… you will almost certainly run afoul of Texas gambling law.
Even with regulations in place, it's hard to discourage a behavior that a growing number (more than 70 percent) of Americans don't see as a moral no-no. Religious opposition to the practice–be it on printout brackets or in casinos–has struggled to change their minds.
Researchers say participation leads to a drop in workplace productivity and, for younger betters, a pattern of more serious and more expensive gambling.
The March Madness tournament is often the first time teens and college-aged adults start gambling, often with full knowledge that it's illegal. As a result, the rates of gambling addiction are two to four times greater among adolescents than older adults, according to a 2009 U.S. News and World Report article.

Many people with advanced cancer have treatments that can successfully control their cancer. For some people, this may be for a long time and for others it may be a shorter time.
When a person's cancer can no longer be controlled, they may start to feel weaker and need more help with tasks such as bathing, dressing and cooking meals.
There are a number of things you might need to help them with.

A plane called a Super Cub crashed into Devil's Thumb. The pilot is the father of the two main characters, Jessie and Sean. They are determined to find their father alive even though they were told that he did not survive the crash. In their efforts, they challenged the wildest peaks on earth. In spite of all the difficulties, Jessie and Sean never gave up the hope of finding their father.
Ahaaa! I thought the book was excellent. It has tons of surprising moments. My favorite part is when Jessie and Seanmet a baby polar bear, and he eats their macaroni. The baby polar bear had cheese all over his face. Sean named him Chubby. Sean reminds me of myself because I have always been a determined climber and like challenges.
I recommend this book to any reader who enjoys thrilling books because it's full of action and adventure. True adventurers will grab this book and not put it down until the end. Ahaaa!

To Canada From Jamaica, With Love
I speak as an expat Jamaican who has made her home here for the past forty-nine years, more than twice the years I spent in my birthplace. Canada is home to many Jamaicans, expats who came here for many reasons ... perhaps they went to school or university here and decided to stay; they may have married a Canadian, as I did, and thus made it their home. Many Jamaicans came here in the seventies, the unhappy times in Jamaica, when Canada seemed to offer a safe place, a better place to live and raise our children.
Whatever the reasons, many of us have lived here for a long time ... we have adapted, well sort of. I'll never get used to winter. Mon pays, ce n'est pas l'hiver ... give me spring, summer and fall ... but we survive. Sure, we miss the tropical weather, the sea breezes, the easy-going laid-back life ... soon come, mon! We miss the bright colours of the bouganvillea, the poinciana, the flame of the forest. We miss the food ... oh, we can replicate it, but is isn't quite the same. We miss the salt air of the sea, the soft white sand between our toes ...
But we're here, Canada is our home, and we are happy and safe and living in the best possible country on earth. So, Happy Birthday, Canada! And many more of them!

Hi Dorothy,
Great post as usual. Canada is a great place, no doubt. Sadly, there are some things left behind that I will always miss.
Most of all I miss the loss of my extended family, now spread to the 4 corners of the globe.
I miss my sense of place.
I miss those family friendships of generations that can never be replaced.

Thanks, Cathy. I agree with your comments. I left Jamaica when I was 22 years old ... my extended family is pretty well all gone, and I have few friends left in Jamaica. Many have left there as well and are scattered all over the world. But, we still have the memories!
- 2 July 2009 at 07:53
Hear! Hear!
That's right, Dorothy; if nothing else, Canada Day is the time to remind ourselves of how fortunate we really are as Canadians...

I left Jamaica in 1955 and missed it for the first two decades or so. But the Jamaica I knew exists no more, except in books, old newspapers and in the memories of thousands in virtually every country in the world.
The food and the (older) music is still something I enjoy. And I enjoy the people who shared similar experiences to mine growing up in the land of wood and water.
Thanks for your post.

Wage and Hour Division (WHD)
Opinion Letters - Fair Labor Standards Act
December 19, 2008
Dear Name*:
This is in response to your request for an opinion regarding whether section 3(m) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)* permits employer-mandated tip pools to include employees who work in restaurants as itamae-sushi chefs and teppanyaki chefs. It is our opinion that itamae-sushi and teppanyaki chefs may participate in tip pools and be considered tipped employees under the FLSA.
Your letter states that itamae-sushi and teppanyaki chefs have direct contact and interact with customers. Itamae-sushi chefs prepare and serve sushi to customers in the bar area. Teppanyaki chefs, on the other hand, prepare meals on the teppan table located at customer tables and serve meals to customers. Servers assist itamae-sushi and teppanyaki chefs by taking orders for meals and drinks, and bussers remove plates and serve water.
Your letter states further that itamae-sushi and teppanyaki chefs participate in a tip pool with servers, bussers, bartenders, and counter persons. All tip pool participants receive more than $30 per month in tips. Back-of-the-house employees such as cooks and dishwashers do not participate in the tip pool.
Section 3(t) of the FLSA describes a tipped employee as "any employee engaged in an occupation in which he customarily and regularly receives more than $30 a month in tips." 29 U.S.C. § 203(t). Section 3(m) of the FLSA allows a valid tip-pooling arrangement among employees who customarily and regularly receive tips. 29 U.S.C. § 203(m); see 29 C.F.R. § 531.54. The legislative history of the 1974 Amendments to the FLSA discussing tip pooling states that servers, bellhops, bussers, counter persons, and service bartenders are among those who may participate in a tip pool. It also states that janitors, dishwashers, chefs, and laundry room attendants are not tipped employees and, therefore, may not participate in a tip pool. See S. Rep. No. 93-690, at 42-3 (1974) (copy enclosed).
It has been our longstanding position that counter persons who serve customers may participate in tip pools. See Field Operations Handbook § 30d04(a). Itamae-sushi and teppanyaki chefs provide customer service similar to counter persons. See Wage and Hour Opinion Letter January 25, 1983 (waiter chef who brings food order from kitchen to table and cooks it on hibachi grill in front of customers may share in tip pooling) (copy enclosed). Therefore, it is our opinion that itamae-sushi and teppanyaki chefs may also participate in tip pooling.
This opinion is based exclusively on the facts and circumstances described in your request and is given based on your representation, express or implied, that you have provided a full and fair description of all the facts and circumstances that would be pertinent to our consideration of the question presented. Existence of any other factual or historical background not contained in your letter might require a conclusion different from the one expressed herein. You have represented that this opinion is not sought by a party to pending private litigation concerning the issues addressed herein. You have also represented that this opinion is not sought in connection with an investigation or litigation between a client or firm and the Wage and Hour Division or the Department of Labor.
We trust that this letter is responsive to your inquiry.
Alexander J. Passantino
Acting Administrator

Lilli Gordon's long career in the beauty industry brought her to one conclusion: the skin care products available on the market were all doing just one or two things right. The formulas that she encountered seemed to smell beautiful, work well, had few side effects or took a simple approach to skin care, but nobody did all four of these well. With the help of dermatologist Dr. Robert Buka, Lilli developed the First Aid Beauty skin care collection, a range of products that are well-rounded and of the finest quality.
The First Aid Beauty collection features formulas that are straightforward and very effective. The products are all tested to ensure that they are simple to use and have beautiful scents. The range features formulas tailored to specific skin care concerns, so that each product from cleansers to moisturizers does double-duty as a treatment as well.
Whether it's the all-purpose First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Concentrate --a hydrating balm crafted with natural ingredients such as colloidal oatmeal--or the tone-boosting First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Serum, you're sure to find a First Aid Beauty offering or two to anchor your skin and body care routine. These products can help restore some of the dermatological elasticity and smoothness diminished by aging, tend to skin that's been damaged by environmental exposure such as excess sunlight, and remove the dirt, oils, and other impurities that can gunk up pores and sour skin tone.
First Aid Beauty Products also allow you to tackle specific problem areas, whether you are noticing fine lines and wrinkles or puffy eyes complete with dark under-eye circles. You can transform dry, dehydrated skin into soft, supple skin or reduce redness and balance skin tone.
No matter your skin care need, you can find First Aid Beauty Products that work for you. These products are free of parabens, harsh chemicals, and artificial colorants, making these products ideal for even sensitive skin types. Treating your skin does not have to be a harsh, even irritating process. You can create beautiful, healthy skin the natural way with First Aid Beauty.
Caffeine makes First Aid Beauty Detox Eye Roller an effective treatment for dark under-eye circles. As a potent vascoconstrictor, caffeine constricts the fine blood vessels that can lead to those irksome under-eye circles. This formula also features sodium hyaluronate and peptides to improve skin volume and increase collagen production. The area around your eyes will be smoother, less puffy, and brighter, with fewer fine lines and wrinkles. Add this easy-to-use product to your skin care routine today.

Jacksonville American Legion Post 265 may have lost more than a baseball game Wednesday night.
Jacksonville American Legion Post 265 may have lost more than a baseball game Wednesday night.
To be sure, Post 265 suffered a heart-breaking loss, falling 7-4 to Jones County Post 154 in 10 innings after rallying to tie it in the ninth and missing out on several chances to add to their tally on the scoreboard in this Area II East showdown.
As if the loss wasn�t bad enough, there were moments for Jacksonville (5-7, 1-1) that didn�t live up to the American Legion code of sportsmanship recited before every game � along with a prayer and the national anthem.
After the game, right fielder Spencer Howard walked off the field after a confrontation with coach Mike Daley that could be heard across the field while the rest of the team was doing its normal postgame running.
Howard complained Daley wasn�t �fighting for us� and the rest of the team had asked him to talk with Daley about it. Daley replied Howard had �issues� he needed to resolve as Howard walked off the field.
Earlier, second baseman Joe Curran said something to the on-field umpire as he walked off the field after the ump had ruled he had dropped the ball in the top of the 10th inning on a force out at second. A teammate had to get between Curran and the umpire, and Daley ordered Curran to get into the dugout and yelled, �What�s wrong with you guys?�
After the game, an assistant coach told The Daily News that Daley didn�t want to talk with the newspaper.
The game itself was a taunt battle most of the way, with pitchers on both sides having the upper hand. Post 265 was hurt when starting right-hander J.P. Padgett had to leave with an injured right elbow with an 0-2 count on Christian Heisey with two outs in the fifth inning.
Padgett struck out five of the first 10 batters he faced and finished with six K�s along with three walks. As a team, Post 265 walked nine, with three of the first five players given free passes coming around to score.
Adam Daley came on for Padgett and held Post 265 close until the locals rallied against Jones County (3-5, 1-1) after being held to just one hit through 5 2/3 innings by Sean Garbarino, who threw 130 pitches (90 strikes) before being lifted in the eighth.
Down 4-2, Post 265 scratched a run out in the eighth when Andrew Hartness reached on an infield single, went to second on Howard�s one-out walk and scored on Hunter Henry�s bloop single down the right-field line.
Post 265 then tied it in the 10th. Dawnoven Smith drilled a triple to right-center field and scored on Ryan Murphy�s single to shallow center field. Murphy went to second on the throw home and third on Curran�s sacrifice. But Hartness flew out to right field and Corey Case struck out to send the game into extra innings.
It wasn�t the first time Post 265 lost out on a scoring chance.
In the seventh, Henry singled and Heath Scurlock was hit by a pitch with no outs. But two strikeouts sandwiched around a foul pop-up on an attempted bunt by Murphy on the first pitch he saw ended the threat.
Post 265 stranded nine.
Jones County scored three in the top of the ninth for the win.
Heisey, a junior who plays for Jacksonville High School, led off with a double and stole third with one out. Then with two outs he tried to steal home but was sent back to third when Henry was charged with catcher�s interference, putting Kyle Gaskins on first.
Logan Nobles singled home Heisey, and Brian Bell walked to load the bases, prompting coach Daley to replace his son with Daniel Moran on the mound. Morgan got Steve Wendt to ground to Hartness at shortstop.
Hartness threw to Curran for the force at second. The umpire initially ruled an out but then switched his call when Curran dropped the ball, ruling the drop happened while he was making the catch and not on the exchange, meaning Bell was safe at second.
Meanwhile, Gaskins scored on the grounder and then as the ball lay on the turf Nobles scooted home for the third run of the inning before Post 265 retrieved the ball.
Post 265 went in order in the bottom of the 10th on two strikeouts and a ground out.

This antibiotic treats only bacterial infections. It will not work for virus infections (such as common cold, flu). Unnecessary use or overuse of any antibiotic can lead to its decreased effectiveness.
Read the Medication Guide and, if available, the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start taking ciprofloxacin and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Shake the container well for 15 seconds before pouring each dose. Carefully measure the dose using a special measuring device/spoon. Do not use a household spoon because you may not get the correct dose. Do not chew the contents of the suspension.

Del Negro out as Clippers coach after 1st-round playoff exit; team won't offer him new deal
LOS ANGELES – Vinny Del Negro is out as coach of the Los Angeles Clippers after their first-round playoff exit.
The team said Tuesday he won't be offered a new contract when his current one expires at the end of June.
Del Negro had a 128-102 regular-season record in three years with the team. The Clippers made the playoffs the last two seasons, including last year when they advanced to the second round for only the second time since the franchise moved to Los Angeles in 1984.
This season, the Clippers won a franchise-record 56 games, had a 17-game winning streak and won the club's first Pacific Division title before their early playoff exit. They led Memphis 2-0 before losing in six games.
All-Star guard Chris Paul becomes a free agent July 1, and the Clippers have said their top priority is to re-sign him.

Dimitar Berbatov inspired Fulham to a 2-1 win at West Brom in the Premier League
Fulham enjoyed the perfect start to 2013 as Alex Kacaniklic's goal secured a 2-1 win over West Bromwich Albion.
Last Updated: 01/01/13 5:19pm
The impressive Dimitar Berbatov had given Fulham a first-half lead, but the muscular presence of Romelu Lukaku drew the hosts level early in the second period.
However, Kacaniklic rolled home the decisive goal just before the hour mark to hand Fulham only a second win in 13 games to lift Martin Jol's side away from the relegation places.
A New Year hangover seemed to be affecting both teams for much of the first half, with a lack of fluency to the game and neither goalkeeper troubled.
Gareth McAuley and Gabriel Tamas headed set-pieces wide for West Brom, while at the opposite end Berbatov and Giorgos Karagounis both fired over from outside the penalty area.
A rare moment of class produced Fulham's opener six minutes before half-time as Berbatov sent Ashkan Dejagah scampering down the right before the Bulgarian ambled into the box to sweep home his team-mate's return pass.
After a lacklustre first half, West Brom were a different team in the second period and were level within four minutes when Lukaku was left alone inside the six-yard box to turn home Billy Jones' low pass following clever work by the full-back.
Lukaku, who has impressed during his loan spell from Chelsea, almost gave West Brom the lead three minutes later when his thumping volley came back off the upright.
The Belgium international was in the thick of things again on 55 minutes as his shot was kept out by David Stockdale before James Morrison struck the rebound against the post and Chris Brunt saw his goalbound effort diverted clear by Aaron Hughes.
Yet the Baggies were floored by a sucker-punch on 58 minutes as the recalled Kacaniklic superbly controlled Bryan Ruiz's pass on the edge of the box before slotting a low shot past the stranded Ben Foster.
Steve Clarke's side took time to recover from that setback and turned to Peter Odemwingie and Shane Long for inspiration, with the latter's cross 15 minutes from time headed wide by Lukaku.
Fulham were still a threat on the counter and could have had a penalty with 10 minutes to go when Ruiz was caught by Youssouf Mulumbu, but it mattered little as only a late Jones cross threatened to deny Jol a win against the club he represented during his playing career.
