Sportsbetting in Upstate Casinos Backed by New York Governor
The Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, is aiming to find new tax revenues for New York. As part of this exercise, he has lent his support to a campaign that is hoping to make land-based sportsbetting legal in four commercial casinos found in upstate New York.
A Boost for Commercial Venues
The Democrat and Chronicle newspaper released a report and suggested that during Tuesday evening's State of the State address, the 61-year-old Cuomo asked the New York State Gaming Commission to begin forging rules which would get the ball rolling. The four casinos in question are the Rivers Casino and Resort Schenectady, Tioga Downs Casino Resort, Del Lago Resort and Casino and Resorts World Catskills Casino Resort.
Provision from Tribes
The casinos were authorized back in 2013 following approval of the Upstate New York Gaming Economic Development Act by state legislators. This measure did, however, contain a provision that meant these venues and their aboriginal counterparts were permitted to offer sportsbetting only so long as the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) federal prohibition was rolled back. This happened in May due to a ruling that came directly from the United State Supreme Court.
Budgetary windfall
In its report, The Democrat and Chronicle suggested that the governor – who is in his third term – is facing a $3.1 billion budget shortfall and hopes that sportsbetting can make up the difference from as early as May.
On a statement Cuomo said:
"We invested in upstate casinos. Let's authorize sportsbetting in the upstate casinos. It's here. It's a reality and it will help generate activity in those casinos."
There are Agreements
The Democrat and Chronicle explained that the New York State Gaming Commission is responsible for creating timely and accurate regulations which outline exactly what can be offered to players and how much those casinos will be responsible for paying in tax. The regulator is not set to convene again until January 28, but the fact that partnerships between sportsbetting firms and the commercial properties already exists means the process could be quicker.

What are SUDS?
SUDS, or Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems are a sequence of water management practices and facilities designed to drain surface water in a manner that will provide a more sustainable approach than what has been the conventional practice of routing run-off through a pipe to a watercourse
Conventional and expensive methods of temporary water storage and stormwater management such as oversized pipes and underground tanks require the use of heavy duty construction plant and are restricted by their shape and size.
The importance of stormwater management is coming more to the fore in the planning and design of all building projects worldwide. The reasons being significant increases in water run-off rates and the legislative requirements for Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) to control stormwater.
The benefits include:
- Reducing flood risk
- Minimising diffuse pollution
- Maintaining or restoring natural flow regimes
- Improving water resources
- Enhancing amenity
The AquaCrate range of stormwater management products offers a simple, rapid and cost effective method for installation of underground water storage and stormwater attenuation. The range offers stormwater management solutions for attenuation, soakaways or rainwater harvesting. Boxes comprise modules which fit together in such a way that almost any shape can be accommodated. These light weight easy to install boxes come in a range of load tolerances making them suitable for pedestrian areas right the way through to heavy load bearing roadways.

According to a report from the Sun Herald, former Baylor head coach Art Briles is on Southern Miss campus to interview for their vacant offensive coordinator job.
The position at Southern Miss came open following Shannon Dawson leaving for an offensive assistant job on Dana Holgorsen's staff at Houston.
We hear that Southern Miss has interviewed some other impressive FBS offensive minds for the offensive coordinator opening as well.
Back in August of 2018, Briles signed a 1-year to coach the Guelfi Firenze American football team in Italy, where he planned to coach the 2019 season.
Briles was let go at Baylor back in June of 2016, as the Baylor scandal unfolded, and he hasn't coached since. He's had some opportunities and been connected to a handful of jobs over the years, but public backlash has ultimately led to places cutting ties with him. One of those more public opportunities was in Canada with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats where the organization offered Briles the job, and then took it off the table amid the public scrutiny.
This off season has been one of second chances for a few coaches, as both former Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez (Ole Miss) and former Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze (Liberty) have landed on their feet with second chance coaching spots.
For what it's worth, last week former Baylor athletic director Ian McCaw (who is now the athletic director at Liberty), shared with CBS Sports that it is his belief that Art Briles will be "largely exonerated" from the wrongdoings at Baylor and available to coach again at the FBS level.
See the full Sun Herald article here.
Stay tuned for the latest on The Scoop.

Excerpt from this article (and there's a cute story at the end about a grandpa who comments LOL on everything because he thinks it means "lots of love"):
…He successfully avoided social media for years. But after returning home to Indiana from my wedding a couple of months ago, he wanted to be better at keeping in touch with family and with the friends he remembers from my childhood. He told me over Facebook chat (naturally) that his curiosity about what others were up to was his main motivator in finally learning to navigate Facebook.
Now, like the rest of us, he's hooked. He's had a ball wishing happy birthday to my friends, commenting on our status updates and sharing his own life's highlights. He still signs comments with his initials, but he's learning. He has even joined a Facebook group for local music enthusiasts, sharing memories about his favorite concert (The Beatles in 1964) and photos of his drum set.
"Initially, I think I viewed it as something 'newfangled' that only the younger computer-generation used," he said. "Then, like probably everybody, I started to become hooked as I saw just how expansive it is, and how much it seems to literally touch so many lives."
The findings might not come as any surprise to countless members of the digital-savvy generations who have watched (and cringed) as their parents fell in love with Facebook, but researchers say the online lives of older adults, who are a part of the fastest-growing demographic on social media, are much more mysterious than the much-scrutinized behaviors of younger generations.

NY Times race-baiting cultural elitist hears conservative speaker at CPAC and mistakes his Brooklyn accent for racial mockery:
By KATE ZERNIKE
How can conservatives win the youth vote that overwhelmingly went for Barack Obama in 2008? At the Conservative Political Action Conference, apparently, some are betting on using racial stereotypes.
In a panel appealing to conservatives under 30, Jason Mattera, author of a forthcoming book called "Obama Zombies: How the Liberal Machine Brainwashed My Generation," likened the gathering to "our Woodstock."
"Except that unlike the last gathering, our women are beautiful, we speak in complete sentences and our notion of freedom doesn't consist of snorting cocaine," he said, "which is certainly one thing that separates us from Barack Obama."
After the laughing died down, he added, "Actually, on the cocaine front, I do believe many people in America viewed Barack as they do drugs: it was a substance to experiment with."
Dramatic pause for more laughter, and then, "But like most narcotics, the hangover afterward has them thinking, What the hell did I just do?"
He then mocked what he described, with a Chris Rock voice, as "diversity," including, he said, college classes on "cyber feminism" and "what it means to be a feminist new black man."
He was talking with a "Chris Rock voice" says the race baiter at the NY Times. White she-Liberal with an over-developed faux sensitivity to racism hears an inner city accent and assumes it's "black." And coming from a conservative it must be "mockery." Of course! It's racial mockery! One little problem– JASON MATTERA IS FROM BROOKLYN. THAT'S HOW HE TALKS. And his reference to cocaine wasn't "racial" mockery either. Barack did do cocaine. Mockery yes, racial NO. Funny thing, that racism. It's EVERYWHERE they tell us! And this– CPAC dude with a Brooklyn accent– is the best they can do?
Here's the Jason Mattera video, at 3:30.
And here the best Breitbart EVAH as he calls out the despicable New York Times race baiter, KATE ZERNIKE:

See also: How to Hide or Show Hidden Pictures in the Gallery app in the Samsung Galaxy S4 with Android 4.4 Kitkat
I've read somewhere out there and found that in the Android 4.4 Kitkat, all hidden files using that method will be moved to the another hidden folder in the internal storage. That's why you can't find them in their default folder. You have to move them to another unhide folder manually to display them back in the Gallery app.
How to find hidden pictures in Android 4.4 Kitkat?
I realize, a picture can be so meaningful for someone therefor I summarize this method here to help those of you who may be experiencing this problem and want to get those hidden-then-lost pictures back. I've tested this method and it worked. So, here they are:
- Open My Files app.
- Tap the Menu key and then select Settings.
- Check the box besides the Show hidden files option to enable this option.
- Tap the Back key.
- Tap All files.
- Tap Device storage.
- Scroll down to find the folder named .hide and then tap it to open it.
- Tap Island (I don't know why Samsung used it as the folder name. I think it may be different in other phones so please let me know if your phone has another folder name).
- Now you should see all pictures you have hidden by using the hide items option in the Gallery app are displayed here.
- Copy/move and then paste the desired hidden pictures to another folder. Use the following steps if you don't know how to do so:
- Select the desired pictures you want to copy/move.
- Tap the three horizontal line icon located at the top right corner of the screen and then tap Copy to copy the selected files or tap Move to cut the selected files.
- Navigate to the required folder you want to paste the files.
- Tap Paste here.
As a note, this method also can be applied to retrieve hidden video files that you have hidden using the same way from the Gallery app. You can also perform this method by using another third-party File Manager app (e.g: ES File explorer, Astro File Manager, etc).

InfoComm 2019: Yamaha's VX Speaker Range Showcases Sound, Design and Quality
Yamaha is committed to delivering the best background music, speech and presentation systems, with optimum quality components throughout the signal chain. InfoComm 2019 sees the full lineup of the company's VX range of speakers on show, including the latest VXC2F and VXC8S ceiling models.
Built on the three foundations of sound, design and quality, the expanding VX series is divided into three types; VXC ceiling speakers, VXS surface mount speakers and VXL slimline, column-type line array speakers. VX models range from miniature full-range units through to subtle-but-powerful subwoofers and a power-over-Ethernet (PoE) VXL unit.
With designs that are unique to Yamaha and many mounting options, VX loudspeakers form a full lineup of aesthetically-pleasing units which deliver superb musicality and natural response, making complete Yamaha audio systems an ideal solution for any space or situation.
Whether it is a busy restaurant, a relaxing hotel lounge or spa, a boardroom, a house of worship or an airport, your customers want to hear the detail in the sound from your system. Yamaha VX loudspeakers range ensures that this happens, whatever the appropriate volume level, from units that fit with any décor.
Along with great sound and appearance, the exceptional reliability and ease of use for installers and end users alike means that the return on investment from Yamaha installed audio systems is always maximised.
At InfoComm, the VX range is complemented by the latest V3.0 update for Yamaha's Commercial Installation Solutions Speaker Calculator (CISSCA) system design software, which helps systems integrators to create optimal Yamaha speaker systems. CISSCA V3 adds extra speaker data* and a new user interface with AUTO and ADVANCED modes, which can be chosen according to the user's needs.
"The benefits of Yamaha's expanding range of VX loudspeakers are being enjoyed by users around the world, in hospitality businesses, education, houses of worship and many other spaces. Examples range from the InterContinental Davos hotel in Switzerland and Cardiff University in the UK, to Volvo Studio Aoyama in Japan, Saint Panteleimon Monastery in Greece, Petit Palace Hotels in Spain, Stone Harbor Municipal Courthouse in the USA, Billund Airport in Denmark and many more," says Senior General Manager of Yamaha Audio Business Division Yoshi Tsugawa.
"As more models are added to the VX range, CISSCA is updated to ensure systems integrators can quickly and easily work out the best loudspeakers to use, delivering optimum audio solutions with minimum visual impact for their clients."
He continues, "Our vision is to empower all business owners to make waves with their creative mindset. We want our sound solutions to enhance their creativity and help them to make a great impression with their businesses."
The full VX range of loudspeakers and CISSCA V3 will be on show at Booth 6461 at InfoComm 2019, which takes place from 12-14 June at Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, USA. Yamaha is also exhibiting on Booth 4961 (Unified Communications) and in demo room W224D.

CNN anchor allows GOP senator to falsely claim Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapon
In fact, Trump, not Iran, violated the JCPOA nuclear deal, which Iran has so far complied with
From the June 25 edition of CNN Newsroom with Poppy Harlow and Jim Sciutto:
POPPY HARLOW (CO-ANCHOR): Foreign Minister Zarif just said Iran "will never pursue a nuclear weapon," this was just in the last 5 minutes. Do you believe that? Should the U.S. believe that?
SEN. JOHN BARRASSO (R-WY): No. We shouldn't believe that. Don't listen to what they say, watch what they do. And what they have been doing has continued to be pursuing a nuclear weapon. It has been a stated goal through the years, but Iran with a nuclear weapon --
HARLOW: So if --
BARRASSO: -- makes the world less safe and less secure and less stable. We cannot allow that to happen.
HARLOW: So if the U.S. should not believe that and not believe what they say, then what is your response to national security adviser John Bolton, who just this morning said, quote, "the combination of sanctions and other pressure will bring Iran to the table." If we shouldn't believe what Iran says, then what good is this diplomacy, right? John Bolton saying we're opening the door to diplomacy, let's see if they walk through it, but it sounds to me like you're saying, Senator, you can't believe a word the Iranian regime says.
BARRASSO: Well, the old "trust but verify." We need to make sure that they're not developing a nuclear weapon. We know in the past they had hidden sites where they were working to develop and use --
HARLOW: Right.
BARRASSO: -- the centrifuges to develop a nuclear weapon. We know what their ballistic capacity is.
Reuters: Iran will never pursue a nuclear weapon, says foreign minister
CNN doesn't tell viewers its analyst who urged a military strike against Iran is a lobbyist for defense contractors
CNN military analyst: No one should dispute location of US drone Iran says it shot down, because the US said it was in international space
Media flirt with disaster in accepting Iran claims from the credibility-challenged Trump administration

"This was ground zero here," said Schneider, adding that "a lot of the big cottages to the north of me -- they were swept right into the marsh."
The Twin Lakes Beach resident was one of a few dozen who attended a town hall in St. Laurent Monday with Premier Brian Pallister. The premier pledged a $540-million outlet to drain Lake Manitoba, to prevent flooding, will get underway. The project is being cost shared by Manitoba and Ottawa.
"It's time for governments to get their act together and it's time to get this thing built," said Pallister.
Construction of an access road will start this year. The long range plan will see two channels dug, one from Lake Manitoba to Lake St. Martin, the second from Lake St. Martin to Lake Winnipeg.
But some here worry the plan is too vague and they've heard promises before.
Farmer David Gall says the outlet is needed.
"90 per cent of our hay fields were flooded," said Gall.
His farm is set to be expropriated for the project. Seven years since the flood, he's still waiting to be bought out. Gall says the uncertainty is stressful.
"We have no closure, we don't know what our futures are going to be like," said Gall.
Premier Pallister says to get shovels in the ground a year earlier, he's asking Ottawa to skip an environmental approval process.
"I've got a billion plus reasons just in the last five years why we shouldn't delay this and that is just in the claim numbers, the uncertainty for people around this basin has been real for decades," said Pallister.
Lilli Schneider agrees sooner is better than later, because she doesn't want a repeat of 2011.
"It wasn't a river flood, it was a lake flood, the water sat here for five months, it was horrible," said Schneider.
Pallister says his goal is to see work on the outlet begin next year.

Weapon Program:
- Nuclear
Related Country:
- Iran
In order to facilitate legitimate trade between Iran and Europe, Germany, France and the UK have established INSTEX, a special purpose vehicle. The measure is intended to underpin the efforts to uphold the Vienna agreement on Iran's nuclear programme.
The special purpose vehicle INSTEX (Instrument for Supporting Trade Exchanges) is intended to facilitate legitimate trade between European companies and other business stakeholders, for instance financial institutions, and Iran. Foreign Minister Maas and his French and British colleagues announced the creation of the vehicle on 31 January on the fringes of the informal meeting of EU Foreign Ministers in Bucharest. Maas emphasised that the establishment of INSTEX is a key part of the European efforts to uphold the Vienna agreement: "It makes it clear that we are able to take action. We believe in the nuclear agreement with Iran because we think that it has an impact on Europe's immediate security interests."
Why INSTEX?
Following its withdrawal from the nuclear agreement, the United States re-imposed sanctions against Iran. These sanctions are hindering legitimate trade between Europe and Iran.
By setting up INSTEX and facilitating legitimate trade, the three countries are complying with the economic provisions contained in the Vienna nuclear agreement. They also expect Iran to comply in full with its obligations under the agreement. Iran's cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency is especially important.
What will INSTEX do?
The focus of the business activities which are to be facilitated by INSTEX will initially be on economic areas of importance to the daily lives of Iranians. This includes the trade in pharmaceuticals and food.
In the long term, INSTEX is also intended to be open to business stakeholders from non-EU states which want to trade with Iran. The three countries will examine on an ongoing basis how this goal can be achieved.
What happens next?
In a next step, Germany, France and the UK will work together with INSTEX to establish how it will proceed. The three countries are working with Iran to create an INSTEX counterpart there. Both steps are necessary if the vehicle is to start work.
Could INSTEX be used to finance terrorism?
INSTEX will comply with the highest international standards on combating money laundering and terrorism financing. Moreover, it will adhere to the sanctions imposed on Iran by the EU and the United Nations.
INSTEX will help to ensure that the JCPOA is complied with and that Iran does not restart uranium enrichment for military purposes. At the same time, the EU and E3 will actively address Iran's problematic role in the region, for example in the Syria conflict, Iran's missile programme as well as the human rights situation in Iran.

Snohomish County sheriff reinstates deputy who was fired after deadly shooting
EVERETT, Wash. -- Newly elected Snohomish County Sheriff Adam Fortney has reinstated a deputy who was fired by the previous sheriff last year after a deadly police shooting.
Prosecutors declined to charge Deputy Arthur Wallin and said he was justified in the October 2018 shooting death of 24-year-old Nickolas Michael Peters. Wallin was terminated even after prosecutors said he was cleared of criminal wrongdoing.
Fortney, a political newcomer who took office Dec. 30 after defeating incumbent Ty Trenary, said he told the former deputy he would review the case, but made no promises that he would be rehired.
"I felt obligated to do so since the facts that I knew at the time of the incident did not seem to warrant termination," Fortney said. "After carefully reviewing the information, I found the termination of Deputy Wallin was not justified and that his actions were reasonable under the circumstances the suspect chose to put him in that night."
When prosecutors declined charges, they said at the time that Peters had engaged in reckless behavior and failed to respond to commands to show his hands.
Authorities say Wallin fired twice through the windshield at Peters after his car crashed. Peters' parents filed a federal lawsuit against Wallin and the sheriff's office. The county settled the lawsuit for $1 million.
According to The Seattle Times, Wallin had previous disciplinary issues, and the department's internal investigation concluded that he used unnecessary force when he shot Peters.
Jeff Campiche, the attorney representing the Peters family, says they are both disappointed and concerned with the decision to reinstate Wallin.
"We're just hoping that it doesn't lead to somebody else's death, but what it does do is it tells every other officer that if they shoot somebody, they'll be protected in that department. That there will be no fair review of their behavior."
There is no date on when Wallin will return to work, but Fortney says he will receive back pay.

Created in 1925 by station manager George Dewey Hay, the Grand Ole Opry began as a weekly radio program that featured traditional "country" music, including folk songs and classic mountain tunes. In 1939, the show moved to NBC radio where it reached tens of thousands of listeners across the country.
During the 1950s, the Opry was one of the nation's favorite radio programs, and with every song played on the Opry stage broadcast to America, Nashville solidified its spot as the country music capital of the world. Here are a few major stars of the Grand Ole Opry.
Hank Williams
By the mid-1930s, Hank Williams's legendary music career was well underway and would astonish everyone for years to come. Despite 12 number-one songs, including "Hey Good Lookin'," Williams battled alcoholism, which almost cost him a chance at the Opry. Producers couldn't bear not to feature Williams, however, and the country star joined the cast in 1949. He was called back for six encores the first time he performed.
Williams died at age 29, from a heart attack, possibly brought on by drug and alcohol abuse.
Patsy Cline
From humble beginnings came Patsy Cline, one of the most recognizable voices in country music. In 1957, Cline made her first national television appearance on Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts, singing what would become her first hit song, "Walkin' After Midnight." Three years later, Cline achieved a lifelong dream when she became a member of the Opry. Tragically, however, Cline died in a plane crash in 1963, just five years after her popularity snowballed.
Minnie Pearl
An upper-class girl from Tennessee, Sarah Colley decided to skip the debutante balls and formal education to pursue the vaudeville circuit. Colley created the character of Minnie Pearl after witnessing the brassy demeanor of a mountain lady during an amateur comedy show in 1936.
When she joined the Opry in 1940, 28-year-old Colley had no idea she would spend the next 50 years in show business performing as Minnie Pearl and wearing her trademark straw hat with the $1.98 price tag still attached.
Dolly Parton
As a young girl growing up in the heart of Appalachia, Dolly Parton sang like a bird and even wrote her own songs modeled after the folksy tunes she learned from her parents. After appearing on a televised talent show, she was booked at the Opry in 1959 at the tender age of 13.
Parton recorded steadily during the 1960s, but it wasn't until 1967 that her career skyrocketed when she was cast on the Porter Wagoner Show. Parton has recently returned to her roots, recording several critically-acclaimed bluegrass albums.
On the next few pages you will find more notable Grand Ole Opry performers, including Garth Brooks.
Garth Brooks
Not one, not two, not three, but four of Garth Brooks's country records have each exceeded sales of ten million -- he's the only male country star in history to achieve such a feat. Though he's currently retired, Brooks has sold more than 100 million records worldwide, and he even has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his work in movies and television.
Hits such as "Friends in Low Places" have won him 2 Grammys, 11 Country Music Association Awards, and 24 Billboard Music Awards, but he claims that his membership in the Opry is his proudest career accomplishment.
Roy Acuff
In the 1930s and 1940s, no one sold more country music records than Roy Acuff. In 1938, this warbler became a regular performer and emcee on the Grand Ole Opry radio program. Known as the "King of Country Music," his performance of "The Great Speckled Bird" changed the Opry forever -- until then singers usually played second fiddle to the band.
Deford Bailey
When Deford Bailey was growing up in rural Tennessee, his parents gave him a harmonica, and history was made. Bailey's ability with the "harp" was unrivaled, and after he moved to Nashville, a few lucky breaks got him gigs playing on radio shows. In 1927, those breaks helped him land a spot on the Opry -- without a formal audition. Bailey was the first African-American included in the Opry cast and was one of the highest-paid stars of his day.
Loretta Lynn
Everyone's favorite "coal miner's daughter" joined the Opry after getting married, having four kids, and signing a recording contract -- all before age 25. Lynn and her husband, Mooney, distributed (largely by hand) her first single, "I'm a Honky Tonk Girl," and through word of mouth and steady airplay, the single reached number 14 on the country charts in 1960.
That impressive debut got Lynn her first appearance at the Opry that year, which boosted her career to the next level. She would go on to have dozens of megahits by blending her country girl image with some potent subject matter, such as birth control and deadbeat husbands. Coal Miner's Daughter, Lynn's autobiography, was made into an Academy Award-winning movie in 1980.
Johnny Cash
The people on this list are all titans of the country music world, but few are as well known as Johnny Cash, who has a place in both the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The "Man in Black" joined the Opry in 1956 following the success of his hit single "I Walk the Line." But he only stuck around for two years.
Though Cash would battle addiction, a bitter divorce, and several career missteps, his popularity surged in the 1960s and again in the 1990s before his death in 2003.
Willie Nelson
Rabble-rouser, political activist, gifted musician, and chart-topper Willie Nelson is probably one of the more controversial figures to grace the Opry stage and the country music scene. But his outspoken nature doesn't eclipse his musical ambition or talent. Between 1962 and 1993, Nelson racked up 20 number-one hits, and 114 singles made it to the country and/or pop charts.
A tireless advocate for the American farmer, the seventy-something Nelson has performed all over the world and recorded countless songs both on his own and with a dazzling lineup of collaborators, including Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, and Waylon Jennings.
The Carter Family
Known as the First Family of Country Music, the Carter Family recorded more than 300 classic country songs that embodied the simple lyrics and harmonies that continue to define the genre. Various members of the family came and went in several incarnations of the group, and by the time the Carters got to the Opry around 1946, the now all-female group was billed as Mother Maybelle and the Carter Sisters.
June Carter later married Johnny Cash and co-wrote some of his biggest hits, including "Ring of Fire." Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, and Bob Dylan have all cited the Carter Family as influences in their careers and have covered Carter Family tunes.
"Uncle Dave" Macon
One of the first stars of the Opry, David Harrison Macon was one of the major catalysts behind country music's popularity. Southern folk music from the late 1800s and early 1900s might not have made the leap to radio, stage, and television had it not been for the magnetic quality of Uncle Dave and his performances.
Macon played the banjo and sang at the Opry -- which he had a hand in establishing -- for more than 25 years. He was a workhorse of a musician and influenced players for decades to come.
Grandpa Jones
It's a good thing Louis Marshall Jones was a successful country artist for more than seven decades -- it gave him time to grow into the nickname he was given at age 22 after being told he sounded "old and grouchy" on radio shows. The singer and banjo player, who was known as a country music purist, promised fans that he would "keep it country" while other styles influenced the genre.
Jones' witty repartee made him a star on the TV show Hee Haw, and he was one of the few stars to celebrate 50 years on the Opry stage.
Elvis Presley
The most famous and successful name in modern music didn't actually fair very well when he appeared at the Opry in 1954. It was Presley's only performance at the Opry -- the audience wasn't impressed by his raucous rockabilly style.
An angry Presley left after the show, swearing never to return. Who could blame him? The Opry manager at the time told him to leave music forever and go back to driving a truck. Obviously, Elvis didn't take his advice and went on to break every music industry record there was.

This is what the Burrows looked like today. Looks quite tranquil, but I can tell you, it was bitterly cold, with a ferocious gale blowing.
I managed to find shelter in a hollow among the stones, before braving the full blast of the Atlantic wind on the open beach.
I tried to measure out a labyrinth site, but got tangled up in my cord, lashing fiercely around my legs. A couple of dog walkers pretended not to notice me. I am an artist, I wanted to shout out to them, but the words couldn't get out of my mouth.
They are playing golf out there. They must be mad!
I have admitted temporary defeat. It is far too cold. Also, I found out yesterday that to make a classical 7-ring labyrinth would take about 3 tons of stone…. I think my slaves (family) might be a little rebellious.

20 Minute Red Thai Curry With Extra Vegetables
An easy and tasty curry – perfect for a quick after-work dinner. Thai food has to be one of my absolute favorites. It's generally quick, packed with flavor and easily modified to include lots veggies.
This makes it a great option for getting a quick dinner on the table without having to reach for the take-out menu.
This recipe uses store-bought Thai paste to speed things up.
If you want to make your own simply whizz up 2 or 3 red chillies, a peeled and chopped small onion, 1 tsp minced ginger, 2 cloves of garlic, 2 tsp lemongrass paste, a small bunch of cilantro, ½ tsp turmeric and a couple of kaffir lime leaves (optional). Then add this paste to the dish in place of the store-bought paste.
Whether using homemade or store-bought paste – this curry is delicious!
I love to serve mine with regular boiled rice or sticky rice, plus lots of cilantro and wedges of lime.
You could also top with a few slices of freshly chopped chillies – watch out though, this curry is already on the fiery side!!
Here's what you'll need:
Serves 4
- 1 tbsp oil
- 3 chicken breasts, cut into bite-size chunks
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- 1 tsp minced ginger
- 1 tsp lemongrass paste
- 4tbsp red Thai curry paste
- 1 cup snowpeas, roughly chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, deseeded and sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, deseeded and sliced
- 2 tsp fish sauce
- 14oz can full-fat coconut milk
- Juice of half a lime
- 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp cold water
To Serve:
- Boiled rice
- Lime wedges
- Small bunch of cilantro, roughly torn
- 1 red chili, sliced
1. Heat the oil in a large skillet, add the chicken and fry for 6-7 minutes until nearly cooked through. Add the garlic, ginger, lemon grass paste and curry paste.
2. Cook for 1 minute until the paste starts to release its fragrance, then add in the snow peas, red and yellow peppers. Stir then add in the fish sauce and coconut milk. Bring to a gentle bubble and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes.
3. Add the lime juice and serve as is, or if you like it a little thicker you can stir in the cornstarch slurry.
4. Serve over rice topped with lime wedges, fresh cilantro and sliced red chillies.

Fitton – Judicial Watch Frustrated By SESSIONS DOJ, FBI Engaging In COVER UP
Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton is frustrated that the DOJ and FBI cover up continues under Trump AG Sessions.They withhold documents and fight in court against open
Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton gives America an update on the difficulties they are having in getting to the truth in matters of FBI and DOJ corruption under the Obama regime that now extends to include the current obstructionist Justice Department under Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Fitton says, "We want information on that dossier that was used by the FBI and Justice Department under 'president' Obama and funded with, perhaps taxpayer money and certainly Hillary Clinton's campaign cash."
He asks, "Why was that document used to target the Trump team with spying? We also want information on that FBI special agent who was sending out anti-Trump and pro-Hillary text messages. he was involved in both the Hillary Clinton email investigation and the Trump Russia collusion investigation."
Fitton declares, "There's a cover up on both issues. We're getting the run-around from this Justice Department and this FBI in our Freedom of Information Act lawsuits. The cover up and secrecy must end. We want the documents now."
Are you listening, Attorney General Sessions and Director Wray? Have you got your fingers stuck in your ears? The American people know you're covering up for criminal activity in your agencies under the Obama regime by Clinton, Obama and the entire leadership team.
What's are Sessions and Wray getting out of this or is it just dirty cops taking care of their fellow "good old boys" cronies? The nation and the American people should come before abusing your offices to protect friends or like-minded partisans engaged in an attack on our nation. Your jobs are to act on behalf of Americans, not the crooks you've been associated with to the point that you have also strayed onto the dark side.
Provide the documents and cooperate – Both FBI Director Wray and AG Sessions were revealed in recent Congressional testimony to be covering up and obfuscating for their dirty cop subordinates and the corrupt globalist hierarchy.
It's time to clean house – drain the swamp means the corrupt leadership as well as the holdovers. Get busy, Mr. President. You're creating your own nightmare by refusing to act.

Extremely slow performance in distant clinic operations has led the research team to experiment with remote temporal operation. The use of ARD's sliding temporal shifts has allowed substantial performance increases at satellite clinic stations. Undoubtedly, temporal memory plays a significant role in every aspect of this study.
Our fastest results were achieved in the 1988 timeframe, but the lack of detail distinction, for all intent and purposes, made the data unusable.
Test with a 1995 referent yielded acceptable performance results with high detail acuity.
Data gathered using the 2001 and 2002 settings were very good, but the temporal friction was substantial.
Although synchronous time presets yielded the highest quality data, flaccid performance led the researchers to rule this approach out.

Whether you consider yourself a pro or novice in the makeup department, beauty blunders happen to the best of us. From too dark and too heavy eyebrows to going crazy with the bronzer, these tiny flubs can have a big effect on your final look! And with more daytime outings taking place over the summer months, it's hard to disguise even the smallest of makeup mishaps.
The good news is that you don't actually have to redo your entire face! There are quick and simple ways to reverse these makeup woes, we promise. We did the groundwork and came up with these damage-control hacks for the 5 most common makeup mistakes.
A wobbly cat-eye can happen to the best of us, even if we've spent countless hours practicing with liquid liner. To quickly correct a heavy hand without having to completely start over, use a pointed cotton swab dipped in makeup remover, swabbing over the uneven area that you want to erase.
Shimmering Bronzer VS Contour
Think again if you believe these products are the same thing! Contour is all about creating shadows in the hollows of the face, while bronzing is meant to mimic the sun's kiss, wherever the sun would naturally hit the face. Use contour powder under the cheekbones, near the temples, along the sides of the nose and right by the hairline. Save shimmering bronzer for the tops of the cheeks, along the forehead and on the tip of the nose and chin to achieve a naturally sun-kissed look.
Overfilling Eyebrows
A pretty pair of eyebrows is a great way to frame your face and help your eyes pop, but when they're too dark or just plain over-the-top, they can distract more than complement. To avoid a harsh and overfilled brow, make sure to stick to a gel or powder that is one to two shades lighter than your hair. After applying your brow filler, use a brow wand to gently comb your brows into place, lightly blending it into your natural brow.
Foundation Faux Pas
Knowing how to pick out and apply your foundation properly is a crucial step in your daily makeup routine. You don't want to be that girl whose neck is a different color from her face! Luckily, there tons of skin-matching technology and foundation guides – so no more excuses for picking up the wrong shade! To avoid the dreaded foundation line on your jaw, properly buff out your makeup with either a sponge or a foundation brush and blend, blend, blend!
Over Powdering
Many women think they can't use enough translucent powder – wrong! Not only will too much translucent powder leave you looking dry and cakey, but it will also settle in all of your fine lines and wrinkles. While it is vital to "set" your makeup, it is equally important not to overdo it on the powder. Start with using blotting papers over your T-zone, then apply powder with a loosely bristled powder brush, then blend it in with a stiff kabuki brush. This method prevents caking and leaves your face looking flawless!

Itanium trademark dispute rumbles on
The ongoing trademark dispute between local channel player Itanium Computers and chip giant Intel rumbles on. Naief Alami, CEO and president at Itanium Computers, which operates as a reseller in the UAE and also has a retail presence at DIC, recently received a letter from Intel suggesting a settlement.
The ongoing trademark dispute between local channel player Itanium Computers and chip giant Intel rumbles on. Naief Alami, CEO and president at Itanium Computers, which operates as a reseller in the UAE and also has a retail presence at DIC, is still negotiating with Intel to change the company name and prevent any further confusion with the chip giant's Itanium processor range.
According to Alami, Intel's proposed settlement — detailed in a recent letter from the vendor's legal team — would only cover the cost of physically rebranding stores and marketing material and would not compensate Itanium Computers for the intangible value attached to the brand name among its existing customer base.
"For a long time Intel did not reply to our response to the original letter we received from their lawyers," said Alami. "Then a few days ago a letter arrived offering a settlement with Itanium Computers. The terms are not favourable and we plan to hold out for a much fairer settlement."
Itanium's original response to Intel's first letter requested a specific sum to change its name. Intel's response, which included the compromise deal, did not indicate a specific amount that the vendor was prepared to pay to achieve a settlement.
According to Alami, one of Intel's suggestions is that Itanium (the reseller) changes its name to Titanium — possibly so that the cost of physically rebranding the retail presence would only involve the purchase of a few 'Ts' to stick in front of the original signs. Alternatively, the suggestion could be simply because of the similarity to the existing brand name.
Itanium (the reseller) registered the name four years ago and will be reluctant to change a name that its customers now know well. Alami explained earlier this year: "Intel lawyers sent threatening letters trying to force us to change our name. We have shown them that we registered the Itanium name both inside and outside the free zone back in 2001."
"It is important to understand that we are not selling any products under the Itanium brand; it is just the name of the company. We are reluctant to change the name because it creates confusion for customers both inside and outside the UAE, as well as with suppliers," he added.
Trademark law is a complex area at the best of times and this case is probably no exception. This situation looks set to rumble on for some time to come. Intel has so far failed to comment on the latest developments in its ongoing dispute with Itanium (the reseller).

MELBOURNE, Australia -- Serena Williams joked she had an out-of-body experience playing in the oppressive Melbourne heat this week.
"Like I felt I was watching someone play in a blue dress, and it wasn't me," she said following a quarterfinal win over Svetlana Kuznetsova.
The outer being must have liked what she saw Thursday as Williams dispatched another Russian, the surging Elena Dementieva, 6-3, 6-4 to reach a fourth Australian Open final in yet another odd-numbered year. A 10th major title beckons.
Probably a little less important to Williams, she can reclaim the No. 1 ranking from the disappointing Jelena Jankovic with a win over Dinara Safina in the final. Safina overcame in-form Vera Zvonareva in the second semifinal Thursday, an all-Russian clash, 6-3, 7-6 (4). If Safina prevails, she ascends to the top spot and emulates big brother Marat Safin, twice a Grand Slam champ.
"I'm just really excited to be in the final," Williams said in an exuberant on-court interview, her blue bag, matching her blue dress, in tow. "I don't care who I play. All my hard work is paying off."
How relieved must the beleaguered organizers be? Taking much flak for the scheduling of men's matches and initially deciding not to close the roof at Rod Laver Arena on Wednesday amid South Australia's worst heat wave in about a century -- they later changed their minds -- the thought of Dementieva facing a countrywoman Saturday would probably have enticed only those in Russia.
Starlets Jankovic, Ana Ivanovic and Williams' sister, Venus, didn't reach the quarterfinals. The elder sibling and doubles partner gleefully looked on from the player's box. Mom and coach Oracene Price appeared as laid-back as ever.
It remains to be seen whether Dementieva, riding a 15-match winning streak and an easy winner over Williams two weeks ago in the semifinals of a warm-up tournament in Sydney, gets close to Grand Slam glory again. Only one other woman has made more Grand Slam appearances before winning a first major, Czech Jana Novotna at Wimbledon 11 years ago. Dementieva's lone two appearances in Grand Slam finals came a while back, in 2004.
"I had a good run from the beginning of the year," said Dementieva. "I played a lot of matches, and I won all of them. I feel like today I was not quick enough. I was not maybe aggressive enough against her.''
The current fortnight is beginning to resemble Williams' run in 2007, when, unseeded, she rallied against Nadia Petrova in the third round and Shahar Peer in the quarterfinals before proceeding to ease past Nicole Vaidisova in the semifinals. In the final, Williams crushed Maria Sharapova for a third crown Down Under.
This time, Williams struggled against Argentinean journeywoman Gisela Dulko in the second round and up-and-coming Victoria Azarenka in the fourth, getting help from the latter when she retired, leading by a set.
"Oh, I definitely wanted to play better than I did the last few times I played Elena," Williams said. "And just wanted to do some different things. The last few times I played her, I didn't play that well and I was stuck, so to say."
Williams' Sydney encounter with Dementieva lasted a paltry 72 minutes, but there was little chance of that happening after the first two games under the roof, which was closed due to the 110-degree heat, making conditions faster. They lasted a combined 16 minutes, both going to four deuces. By that time, Williams had already chalked up 10 unforced errors. Crucially, she saved two break points. So did Dementieva, though she wasn't playing as poorly. The lone break came in the seventh game.
Williams' first-serve percentage has been a constant source of concern for the 27-year-old. Thursday's stats made for interesting perusing: In the first set, it stood at 45. The good news is that when it landed in, Williams won 94 percent of points. In the second, the percentage increased to 63 percent. Ten aces overall helped.
Dementieva broke early in the second to take a 3-0 lead, but the double-fault demons, who apparently had gone, revisited. Flooring Williams by wrong-footing her foe with a cross-court forehand proved scant consolation.
"I usually don't feel tumbles [until] like four days later because of the adrenaline," Williams said. "I'll be home on Tuesday and I'll be like, 'Oh, my God, my leg hurts.' I'll realize, 'Oh, that's why.'"
Dementieva served back-to-back double faults, three total in the fifth game, as Williams pulled to 3-2. More deflating, after breaking Williams from 40-15 down to level at 4-4, Dementieva uncorked two more doubles in the ensuing game, leading to an almost inevitable break.
And what a final point of the ninth game it was. Both ran side to side on the baseline as part of an enthralling 25-plus shot rally, with Williams setting up the knockout blow with a blistering cross-court forehand of her own.
Williams closed out the encounter with a thunderous overhead and then proceeded to bob up and down in a celebration.
There should be more joy Saturday.
Safina produced 42 unforced errors, the result of doing the dictating, mind you, and five more double faults to add to the dubious tally. Her ball toss is so high, the heavens probably awake. Still, the 22-year-old defeated Zvonareva for the first time in four tries in landing in a second Grand Slam final.
Just like in Paris last spring, Safina saved match points along the way; France's clever baseliner, Alize Cornet, wasted both her chances in the fourth round. Safina lost to Ivanovic in the French capital.
She trails Williams 5-1 head-to-head. Further, in their two hard-court encounters in 2008, at the U.S. Open and year-end championships, Safina salvaged only five games each time.
Safina had an explanation.
"Playing in the U.S. Open and [year-end championships], I was just not ready to play at all,'' Safina said. "There was nothing inside of me anymore. I was dead, completely.''
Out-of-body dead?

On Level 5 Leadership: I'd Rather Be Beck Than Kanye
Author's Disclaimer: I love music, and love musicians. And I love both Beck and Kanye's music. But Beck for me goes way back to the very first time I heard his "one-hit-wonder" Loser, to the incredible mash-up of It's All Over Baby Blue by Them (originally by Dylan) in his song Jack-Ass, and now 16 albums later, with Morning Phase, he is still producing great songs like the wonderful, and soulful Heart is a Drum.
Many of you already know about Kanye's fourth attempt to discredit an artist during the 2015 Grammy's award show last Sunday night. Although his most famous incident is during the 2009 MTV Video Awards, when he grabbed the mic away from Taylor Swift to declare Beyonce's "All the Single Ladies" the true winner, this time he took on Beck, a long standing and critically acclaimed artist with 16 nominations and 5 Grammys to his name.
If you look at the tale of the tape, you could easily argue that Kanye has had much more success than Beck. He has sold more records with fewer albums, he has made more money. And despite the fact that many believe it is Kanye who is disrespecting artistry (like in Shirley Manson's open letter), I think there is another lesson in this situation. It's about leadership.
Level 5 Leadership: The Triumph of Humility and Fierce Resolve
Chapter 5 of Jim Collin's iconic management book "Good to Great", talks about the traits of great leaders after examining 1,435 companies and their performance over a period of 40 years.
What he found was that in all cases where a company was taken from good-to-great, they had a Level 5 Leader at the helm. What is a Level 5 Leader? This is how Collins defines the hierarchy.
The Level 5 leader sits on top of a hierarchy of capabilities and is, according to our research, a necessary requirement for transforming an organization from good to great. But what lies beneath? Four other layers, each one appropriate in its own right but none with the power of Level 5. Individuals do not need to proceed sequentially through each level of the hierarchy to reach the top, but to be a full-fledged Level 5 requires the capabilities of all the lower levels, plus the special characteristics of Level 5.
Level 5 – Executive
Builds enduring greatness through a paradoxical combination of personal humility plus professional will.
Level 4 – Effective Leader
Catalyzes commitment to and vigorous pursuit of a clear and compelling vision; stimulates the group to high performance standards.
Level 3 – Competent Manager
Organizes people and resources toward the effective and efficient pursuit of predetermined objectives.
Level 2 – Contributing Team Member
Contributes to the achievement of group objectives; works effectively with others in a group setting.
Level 1 – Highly Capable Individual
Makes productive contributions through talent, knowledge, skills, and good work habits.
Collins then gives specific examples of how this style of leadership, humble, yet a determined, almost stoic resolve to succeed is the most important quality in great leaders. And this is counterintuitive to what people assume you need in a top CEO or leader. They need to be brash, have bigger than life personalities. But can this bold style work? Maybe, but the research shows more often than not, it is the Level 5 Leader who ultimately is more successful.
When I think about Beck and Kanye, both are very successful musicians, and have certainly showed leadership in many different ways. But I do believe Kanye is the classic example of what many expect in great leaders – that strong, big personality, that needs to be the center of attention. While Beck is the opposite, (not-so) quietly plugging away for 21 years with a (stoic) determination to be the best musician he can be, all the while being humble.
No question in my mind, as I think about what type of leader I want to be, it's Beck not Kanye.
And what did Beck have to say about the whole Kanye incident?
"I was just so excited he was coming up," he told US Weekly during the Universal Music Group after-party. "[West] deserves to be onstage as much as anybody. How many great records has he put out in the last five years, right?"

I had so much fun writing Chasing the Dollar. Action! Adventure! Romance! Travel to exotic places! What's not to love? It wasn't until I was nearly finished that my critique partner suggested (ahem, demanded) that this book be a series. But I had an ending in mind that would have left my heroine, Miranda, with a happily ever after. And after everything she'd been through, I wanted to her to have that HEA. She deserved it. And I just really liked her.
But, I also really liked her. It would be fun to hang out with her again. Then I started thinking about what happens after a huge, life-altering experience. Sometimes those events push you in a whole new direction. This is why I love reading series, so I can see the characters growing over the course of many books.
So Miranda's story will continue.
I jumped at the chance to write a holiday-themed novella for a winter anthology because I could revisit my friend Miranda and see what trouble she's getting herself into. Chasing Tinsel, a Miranda Vaughn Mystery, will be part of Cozy Christmas Capers, available December 1. The anthology includes 19 short stories from Gemma Halliday Publishing. It's a stocking full of mystery, mayhem, and holiday cheer!
The collection will be available for pre-order at Kobo, Smashwords, iBook, and Barnes & Noble. Available everywhere on December 1st!
Then, at some undetermined date in the future, look for Dropping the Dime, Miranda's next mystery. She's got a new job, where she's trying to find her footing. At the same time, she's struggling to recover her reputation in a community that still views her as a criminal defendant. And then there's the matter of Jake… Things aren't remotely finished for her.

Battlefield V Firestorm was finally released across all platforms on March 25 and after taking some time away from Apex Legends to try it, Michael 'Shroud' Grzesiek got stuck in the craziest glitch yet.
The popular Twitch streamer was trying to escape the spreading fire around him before he was taken down by artillery in the new battle royale game.
After waiting for his teammate to come over to his character's body and revive him, Shroud noticed that things weren't really looking as they should.
Battlefield V Firestorm is a first-person shooter game that brings players together in a huge deathmatch situation, similar to Call of Duty Blackout and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - but this new glitch made things a little more third person than it should be.

"No! Artillery got me!" Shroud shouted after he was knocked down. "No, I'm stuck in third person bro, what the fuck? What is this?"
Shroud might have been revived, but his character stayed in a lying down animation. Laughing about his new-found situation, he was unable to shoot straight or navigate the map as normal after the artillery strike. "I can't play. I can't play. I can't play," he shouted repeatedly.
It wasn't a typical third person camera view, though, as his character's legs were spread out in front of him, hovering around the map in a downed position.
Shroud walked around with a lopsided weapon view for a few moments before being advised by his Twitch chat to jump inside a vehicle to fix the problem - and it worked!

It's unknown if developers DICE and Criterion are aware of this issue in Battlefield V Firestorm, but this is one of the most ridiculous - and hilarious - bugs found yet.
On a remarkable sidenote, after all of that suffering he still won the game.

@Starr Yes, true, money for warfare can backfire. Better to to get things on more solid footing by building relations, gaining momentum in that respect.
@Emily Yes he had a ticket but how does he get on an international flight without a passport, if that happened? Does anyone at an airport have that discretion? If that actually happened that's a whole story in itself.
Thank you Erica and Dr. Sanjay Gupta for that look at this years medical headlines. Very thoughtful.
Must be a tremendous amt of work to combine all those songs.
Good night Isabel, good night everyone
Glad to see you on the blog tonight Martina 🙂
Have a great night Erica, 360 Team, Megan and Bloggers!
My family is one of those dysfunctional ones.
Father travels for work and has a bad temper when things don't go his way, yet he acts nice to strangers.
Mother is a control freak because she was raised in the middle of 8 and "didn't/doesn't have anything that is hers alone."
She was often gone to be in the hospital with my sister for her club feet.
I learned to avoid them and they like to pull guilt trips.
Charlie Sheen is no different than them.
You have to not give in to their manipulations and the tone, hiding in her room "safe zone", and walking on egg shells to appease were common in my youth....No more.
I refuse to pass that dysfunction on to my daughter. I have her away from it for that reason.
Xmas was a pain with them. The table didn't need to be set up 2hrs early in the living room. The salad didn't need to be prepped 1 hr ahead of time either.
Everything got to the table except her yams...oven got turned off so that was a delay.
People who are like that don't know how to let go of control and that is why they get so angry over everything and strike out at others.
God controls the world not anyone else.....let it go....time reveals all....don't hide the truth...it will find you.
Goodnight Erica, CNN Staff, fellow bloggers!
Thank you Erica, Randi-Kaye & entire Team 360 for another great news program! Good night too.
Good night fellow bloggers too. Megan Dresslar, David, Indiana, Emily too.
Eric, your earrings are stunning! Christmas present?
Wow, that's your job Jack?
to surf YouTube like that?
that's a tough job!
Great song, a teaser also!
Good night Anderson, Erica, Randi, Ed Henry, David Gergen, Martina Ilstad, Emily and my friends Twitter/Facebook Bloggers!!!!!
See you tomorrow night!
Have a great night and sleep tight everyone!!!! 😀
Day of the shot with mixed videos my favorite rap song I love!!!!!
Don't forget watch Happy New Year Eve with Anderson and Kathy on Thursday night!
Hope see you tomorrow night,........
No one is saying anything bad about this terrorist father!
In fact, I only hear praise for what he did, in going into the CIA and talking to them about his own son!
I think that many are concerned about them...wondering what when wrong...I don't hear anything neg. about his family, esp. his father!
@Emily, I agree, Jimmy Hendrix beats Lady Gaga any time.
Hi Erica, Anderon, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year..
Sad to hear about Sheen...what a way to remember new year.
thanks for putting up the 1st n 2nd songs:)
I love Lady Gaga and the way she plays with fame
lady gaga?
Give me Jimi Hendrix! They just don't make music like they use to!
The concern about carry on luggage and after the recent attempt to bomb a plane, the requirement to conduct a security check on all carry on luggage would be minimized if airlines would stop charging for checking in luggage. What we have experienced are more and more travelers carrying luggage to avoid additional charges. Consider the TSA agents that have to not only check the person but also check luggage-after awhile, it becomes a routine rather than an important task -and they may miss something important.
@ Mike formerly from Syracuse,
it's a good possibility!
not everyone, and many don't report Domestic Violence for they don't feel that anything is going to happen to their abuser. They can be re-victimized when he/she is released!
Emotional abuse is even worse and they usually go hand-in-hand!
someone telling you that you are useless, a no-go, and wear down you self-esteem!
Good question Erica! Once a wife beater, likely to remain a wife abuser!
And the children in such a home are really cast into the emotional tornado which are often swept up in the toxic cloud that erupts from spousal fights.
If there have been more than one report on violence against women by Charlie Sheen, then something definitive needs to be done to stop him.
Domestic violence does cause loss of life and is dangerous!
I would say, based on all the statements of the women Sheen has been involved with, that he has a serious problem. Maybe he should retire from acting for a while and try to go live a normal life somehow.
So blogging family,Megan,Emily,at leat Anderson (where are you?)
i have to try to sleeping again,its midnight here in Germany. Have a good night and a very Happy New Year 2010.
Innocent – sure. No one has that much bad luck. I'm willing to jump to the conclusion that he's a jerk.
I am not an American, but I just want to say that I am proud of the sometimes thankless job you guys do to bring peace around the world, by assisting those nations that cant protect themselves from terrorists. May God continue to bless the United States of America and all those who fight for freedom... I am also saddened to see the extraordinary efforts Americans have to go to just to secure themselves against terrorism. Keep up the good work. Anderson, I love your show!
I remember my favorite the year of 2009 is 2 pilots saved all many people on the plane, when bird hit the engine cause to shut down to land in Hudson River..... Pilots are my heroes! and my favorite is the shot of Anderson's clip!!!!!! I do love 5 things from Anderson's clip.
Denise Richards is probably privately going, yep, been there and done that.
