All of the non-gawky David Tennant moments in Learners fit within these two gifs. It's amazing to watch: For the rest of the movie he moves like a grocery bag full of coathangers falling off a high table.
That top gif cracks me up! He's all "Chicks dig the new haircut. Makes me look a bit like Russell Crowe they say. Can't...
"… he move like a grocery bag full of coathangers falling off a high table." Brilliant! :)

Stocks to watch: RIM, Constellation Brands
The BlackBerry maker continues to disappoint, and the alcoholic beverage company buys the remaining of Crown Imports.
By Joseph Woelfel, TheStreet.com
Research In Motion (RIMM) disappointed Wall Street Thursday with its fiscal first-quarter results. The BlackBerry maker reported a much wider-than-anticipated loss, pushed back the launch of the BlackBerry 10 until the first calendar quarter of 2013 and announced plans to lay off 5,000 employees, roughly 30% of its work force. Shares of Research in Motion fell 15.12% in premarket trading Friday to $7.72
Nike (NKE) posted fiscal fourth-quarter earnings on Thursday that missed analysts' expectations. The sneaker maker reported a profit of $549 million, or $1.17 a share, on revenue of $6.47 billion for the three months ended in May; analysts were expecting earnings of $1.37 a share on revenue of $6.51 billion.
The company attributed the year-over-year decline in earnings to lower gross margin, higher SG&A spending, a higher effective tax rate and costs related to restructuring operations in western Europe. Shares of Nike fell 11.56% in premarket trading Friday to $85.69.
Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD), the world's largest brewer, confirmed Friday that it would buy the rest of Mexican brewer Grupo Modelo that it doesn't already own for $20.1 billion.
Meanwhile, Constellation Brands (STZ) said it would buy the remaining 50% of Crown Imports that it doesn't already own from Anheuser-Busch for $1.85 billion following Anheuser-Busch's deal to buy Modelo. Constellation and Modelo owned Crown as a joint venture. Constellation Brands' stock was climbing 4.46% in premarket trading Friday to $22.73.
Retailer Finish Line (FINL) reported first-quarter net income Friday of $12.3 million, or 24 cents a share, down from year-earlier earnings of $16.4 million, or 30 cents. Analysts, on average, anticipated earnings of 23 cents a share.
The company forecast an increase in earnings per share for the next fiscal year of about 7; it earned $1.53 a share in fiscal 2012. Previously, Finish Line projected earnings per share growth would be in the mid-single digits.
KB Home (KBH) is expected by analysts Friday to report a second-quarter loss of 35 cents a share on sales of $294.8 million.

Remember that time Farrah Abraham's sex tape bikini went up for sale on eBay -- and bidding got up to almost $15,000? That was cool. But you know what was even cooler? When eBay took the "used" bikini off the site, because it has never been washed.
According to TMZ, eBay sent Vivid Entertainment (who put the swimsuit up for auction on the site) an email, saying: "Due to health and hygiene concerns our policy does not allow used clothing to be listed on the site unless the item has been washed first."
AKA, they didn't want someone catching a nasty case of something on their watch. And who could blame them? And who could want a used bikini? Gross!
If you remember -- or perhaps if you bid -- the description on Farrah's bikini sale boasted signs of "wear and tear" such as self-tanner stains and glitter from Farrah's body lotion. The listing stated: "Farrah's bikini ... straight off Farrah's body and into your hands." That's a health and hygiene concern all right.
Now, I can't say I'm incredibly shocked that some creepo wanted the Teen Mom's bathing suit, ah, unwashed, but when you think about it -- that's really gross and super unsanitary. No thanks on any used bathing suit -- especially one that was worn by someone who recently starred in a sex tape.
eBay did the right thing, taking down the bikini sale. But if I were a betting woman, I'd say that that bad boy will be back up on the site in no time. However, I doubt it will be worth as much washed. I don't think cleanliness is what the people bidding on it are after.
Would you buy a used bathing suit?
Image via Vivid Entertainment
Thats so nasty!
You think she's nasty think about the people whoa re actually bidding for it! They are even nastier. They are probably aware it was unwashed. It may not sell as much now if she washes them and puts them back online.
That is just disgusting!!!!

Blogging Donna Hay: What's Cooking in the Southern Hemisphere
We don't know a lot about Australian cookbook author and writer Donna Hay, but she reminds us a little bit of Ina Garten. Her recipes are simple, fresh, and comforting, and she seems like the kind of woman who'd be fun to hang out with in the kitchen.
But every time we pick up her magazine, we realize something's off. Oh, right, it's winter in Australia...
... which is why the current issue featured on her website has recipes for cozy, cold-weather desserts and mulled wine.
The photography is beautiful, though. And as much as we're looking forward to tomatoes and corn, it's kind of nice to be reminded that chefs on the other side of the world are snuggling under blankets and eating soup. In a couple of months, when the heat of the city has become oppressive and we've eaten our share of berries, these images will get us excited about the season to come.
Also, it's funny to think that Christmas is a warm-weather holiday in Australia. We'll be making egg nog and cooking cinnamon-spice cookies, and Donna will probably be whipping up holiday popsicles.
Are you a fan of Donna Hay's cookbooks? Ever pick up her magazine out of season?

Huge fan! If only her magazine didn't cost $10...
I love Donna Hay's cookbooks. It is filled with great recipies and the pictures are absolutely beautiful.
Are you kidding - her stuff is FANTASTIC. Who really cares if it is off season. I use her books and buy the magazines. I am not sure I would consider her an Ina as her recipes are definitely more healthy. She could be considered more an "urban" Martha Stewart type maybe.
Regardless, if you have not tried her recipes, not sure what you are waiting for - you will LOVE them, simply, easy, tasty and using the freshest seasonal items. A must in any cooks home, in my opinion.
I love her. Great recipes and wonderful photography. I don't care about the season issue at all.
I wish her magazine wasn't so expensive!
I LOVE her magazine. The recipes are awesome and the photography is pure eye candy. It is an expensive magazine, but it only comes out 6 times a year. When you compare that to the 12 issues of other magazines that cost $4.99, it's about the same.
Yay please do mention more Aussie stuff! Its great to hear you guys know we exist!
Sometimes its hard reading about all the great fresh salads and summer fruit when here we're all wanting mashed potatoes and slow cooked roasts :-D
Donna Hay is great. I don't buy her mags but I have a few of her books.
I love her too! I was introduced to her awesomeness when I studied abroad in Australia about 6 years ago - her recipes were in the food section of the Aussie equivalent of Cosmo back then... I tried each one and was instantly hooked.
The recipes were simple, doable, and ridiculously delicious. I now own 5 o her cookbooks, and love them all!
It's winter here in New Zealand too. I don't buy magazines for articles, but I do enjoy looking at the food porn.
Pictures in her book are absolutely amazing, but the food often disappoints. Not always, but often. I used to have 5 or 6 of her books but as often as I flipped through them, I very rarely cooked from them. I got rid of half of them, keep the rest around for inspiration.
Donna Hay is fantastic. Her book, Flavours, includes the most delicious recipe for breaded chicken that I have ever tasted. An instant classic!

Beauty Etiquetter: How To Call It Quits With Your Trainer
Beauty Etiquetter is a new column on Beauty Counter in which we address your beauty-protocol predicaments with candid advice from industry experts and those in the know. To submit a question, e-mail email@example.com.
The Quandary: How do I break up with my trainer? I feel like I've reached a plateau in my workouts and want to try someone new, but I don't know how to end things with my current pro.
The Expert in Residence: Jessi Kneeland, trainer at Peak Performance in New York City.
The Advice: "The best tactic is to be honest and polite. Typically, people who break up with their trainer want to go in a different direction. So I would say something like, 'I've really enjoyed the kettle-bell work we've done, but I really want to try some barre classes or go back to running.' She might try to convince you to stay, but just be firm about wanting to experiment with a different technique. A good trainer knows their expertise and isn't offended if a client wants to move on. If, for example, someone wanted a boot-camp-like training experience with a drill sergeant to push her, I would not be the right person for her. Just don't lie and say you're moving away, unless you really are or your trainer is a super-pushy type who won't take no for an answer. In that case, do what you have to do. But otherwise, try to be considerate: Give at least two weeks notice before ending your sessions and tell your trainer in person, if possible. The worst thing you can do is just disappear and not show up. We've reserved space in our schedules and not booked other clients for your time slots, so even if it's awkward to do the breakup, your trainer would much rather know what's going on than be left wondering what happened to you."

Fireplace Tray 18 18
Fireplace Tray This is the only similar tray that I've found. My fireplace has an opening in its floor and I need a tray to keep the ashes from falling to the basement. Glad you offer this solution. June 15, 2014
Great product Definitely makes cleaning up the fireplace a lot easier and less messy. April 3, 2014
Almost what I wanted Received fireplace tray quickly. Had only one problem installing in fireplace. I have a gas pipe in the middle of fireplace. Had to cut and bend about 3/4 of an inch off right side of tray to be able to fit under the pipe. No big problem - would not expect manufacturer to make any allowance for this unique kind of situation. Tray now fits perfectly and will be able to empty ashes fairly easily. Cannot comment on durability until I use next winter. March 20, 2014
Try it for Real This item really worked for me. It keeps the ash and ember inside the tray making clean up very easy. I use my ash vacuum to remove the ash. So buy this item and you want be disappointed. March 1, 2014

Answer:The gas isn't hooked up on my wood burning fireplace, but I see no reason why you couldn't utilize the tray. The whole point of the tray is to catch the ash.

N.C. State junior point guard Lorenzo Brown will forego his senior year and declare for the NBA Draft, he announced Thursday afternoon.
Brown averaged 12.4 points, 7.2 assists, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.0 steals per game. He led the ACC in assists and steals.
"I just kind of figured it was my time to leave and just step up to something new," Brown said.
Whether N.C. State faces other losses remains to be seen. Coach Mark Gottfried's name has surfaced as a possible candidate to be the head coach at UCLA, where he was an assistant. The Bruins fired Ben Howland after the season.
Gottfried said Thursday he wouldn't address any job "other than the one I have - which is the one I love."
"I'm excited about being here and my full focus is on the work that we have to do, which I think is a lot right now," he said.
Brown was named a second-team All-ACC selection for the 2012-13 season. Gottfried said Brown has a chance to be a first-round pick.
"I think guys [in the NBA] like the fact that they would potentially get a player that's kind of on the front end of all the growth that may happen for him," Gottfried said. "I know there's a lot of teams that like him a lot. ... I think he's going to have a good future."
Brown, from Roswell, Ga., scored a total 1,167 points during his three years playing for the Wolfpack.The move wasn't a huge surprise considering Brown and junior C.J. Leslie were both mentioned as likely candidates to jump to the NBA all season. The tandem of Brown and Leslie was a big reason why N.C. State was the ACC favorite for the first time since the 1974-75 season, while the Wolfpack's No. 6 preseason ranking was the program's highest in 29 years. Though N.C. State started 3-0 in league play, the Wolfpack struggled with inconsistency all season, particularly on the defensive end. Things got tougher when Brown suffered a sprained left ankle in the first half of a loss at Virginia on Jan. 29, sidelining him for the rest of that game followed by the next two. N.C. State lost all three to essentially end its ACC regular-season title hopes.

KSP Highway Safety Branch News Release
Five Die On Kentucky Roadways Last Week (Feb. 13 through Feb. 19)
Date of News Release: 02/20/12
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- Preliminary statistics* indicate that five people died in five separate crashes on Kentucky roadways from Monday, Feb. 13, through Sunday, Feb. 19, 2012.
All of the fatalities involved motor vehicles and three victims were not wearing seat belts. Single-fatality crashes occurred in Breckinridge, Floyd, Henderson, Madison and Washington counties. The crash in Henderson County involved the suspected use of alcohol.
Through Feb. 19, 2012, preliminary statistics* indicate that 77 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2012. This is 5 less fatalities than reported for the same time period in 2011. There have been 69 motor vehicle fatalities and 38 of those victims were not wearing seat belts. Seven of those crashes involved a commercial motor vehicle. Two crashes involved a motorcycle and one victim was not wearing a helmet. Two crashes involved an ATV and one victim was not wearing a helmet. Four crashes involved a pedestrian. Thirteen deaths have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas. Crash data for this report is generated from the Kentucky Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS).

Amazon cites Perl as a major source of it's success. HTML::Mason is a hiring skill at Amazon. They experiment in Perl and productize in C. Your saying that scripting languages can't handle shopping carts?
Performance NOT EQUALS to Scalable

Amazon has a J2EE architecture. Scripting language is for the presentation layer, so you're question doesn't make sense.. J2EE has scripting language called JSP.
Ok, a load balancer with several Apache web servers can provide scaling for http connections. And I'm sure you can do something with the rest of the layers too. That has nothing to do with PHP.
J2EE specifies how scalability and fail-over can be provided at each layer.. PHP doesn't.. because PHP is not an architecture.
The author is just mixing up performance with scalability.

Amazon does not have a J2EE architecture. They use custom C++ stuff and Perl.
The point of the article is that PHP can scale to handle large sites as well as Java can. The fact that an HTTP load-balancer is separate from PHP looks like a positive thing to many people. Fail-over is typically provided by the load-balancer as well, assuming you are using one of the many approaches for sharing session data with PHP.

No doubt that parts of Amazon still run on Perl but I think they have mentioned several times on conferences that Perl was a dead end for them and that they switched to Java for all new development.
Most, if not all, of their public web services are also written in Java.

maybe, but i think that amazon would be fairly easy to do with a technology like mason on fastcgi. The point is that it isn't so much about the technologies as the way in which they are applied. I'm sure that the J2EE frameworks do a lot of the work for you, but that isn't to say that you can't achieve the same results using other technologies. Thought the article was a bit stooopid ;-)

Can you point to a URL that says that Amazon is on J2EE? I'm sure parts of the service are, but from the hiring page:
I would say that only fragments of the service are. Amazon has been around a lot longer than J2EE.
Producer Note: I've broken the above URL into two lines because it was pushing the page out in some browsers.

STEVEN P. ALPERT v. CUESTA TITLE COMPANY, CV 098220
Due to building and courtroom configuration limitations, media and public seating will be extremely limited. Although the Court anticipates opening a media availability and interview area in the courthouse, creation of an overflow room for public viewing and listening is not possible.
Because there is an overwhelming demand to view this trial, seating is at a premium. Litigants and their counsel must be accommodated which leaves six gallery seats for the media and public.
Accordingly, a media pool reporting system will be in place for the trial. Three seats will be initially allocated to the media as follows: - one seat for print pool reporter, one for broadcast; internet and cable outlets, and one for radio outlets or wire services.
At 9:25 a.m., the Public Information Officer will ask media representatives to identify their respective pool members. If no pool member comes forward, that seat will be reallocated to the public. If seats remain unclaimed after the pool members and litigants to this trial have been accommodated, there will be a drawing for the vacant seats.

The Big Picture
The Taos Picture Show Brings Hollywood back to Northern New Mexico
The demise last year of the Taos Talking Picture Film Festival left many wondering what would happen to the artistic, movie-hungry mecca of Taos, NM. A tricky bankruptcy derailed the homegrown festival in 2003, ending (at least temporarily) any chance of hanging out for a weekend, rubbing elbows with a few stars and watching movies in the cool, pine-lined environment of northern New Mexico. Thanks to some last-minute efforts by a team of dedicated film lovers, though, Taos will once again play host to an annual film festival.
Film Review
Postmen in the Mountains
Less is more in this very special delivery from Asia
Sometimes less is more. The new film Postmen in the Mountains, shot in 1998 but only recently delivered to America from China, is certainly proof of that. This tiny, deceptively simple story concentrates on an aging mail carrier, whose job it is to lug a mail sack through the rugged mountains of China's rural Hunan province. Forced to retire due to increasingly painful arthritis, the postman passes his job onto his son. The entire film takes place over the course of a single journey in which the father (along with a faithful guide dog) teaches his son the ins and outs of the laborious mail route. That's pretty much it for the plot. There are no surprising twists, no giant crises, no big action sequences. And yet, the film carries an emotional weight far heavier than most Hollywood tearjerkers.

"Animal Face-Off" on Discovery
Discovery Channel's new series "Animal Face-Off" could be the greatest water cooler show ever invented. That's not to say it's the greatest show ever—there are far too many missed opportunities in the series for it to qualify as essential viewing. But the concept is pure, unadulterated genius. It's guaranteed to spark many a debate at work, at school and on the playground.

Best Kids Parties: Sock Monkeys
My Party
Name: Cameron (2)
Location: Washington, DC
Our daughter Cameron LOVES monkeys and has an impressive collection of sock monkeys, but her favorites are pink and red. So we decided for her second birthday party to do a modern, funky sock monkey brunch focusing on those two colors.
Because, like everyone else, I'm obsessed with chevron right now, we used chevron as our main pattern and mixed in some polka dots. To bring in some funk and whimsy, I settled on circus fonts for the invitation and decorations.
I worked with Tania Peso through her totfulmemories Etsy shop and she came up with a wonderful party package, including the invitation, pendants, and patterned papers. I especially loved the patterned papers, which I used to come up with the circle garlands and signage. I found some great red and white chevron envelopes at Zazzle.com, lined them with the polka dot paper, made some funky labels (inspired by Cakes Likes a Party) and put a sock monkey stamp (also from Zazzle.com) on each one.
I purchased several red and white chevron tablecloths from the Exclusive Elements Etsy shop and wrapped one around a piece of artwork we had. I used that as the focal point for the backdrop and hung on it a custom made hot pink "C" in circus font I purchased from Vintage Shore's Etsy shop. We heart Etsy in our house.
Tissue paper sunbursts (from Pretty Little Party Shop and Shop Sweet Lulu) and handmade hot pink and red poms rounded out the decorations. And of course there were plenty of sock monkeys scattered about.
We made most of the food ourselves -- banana french toast, egg and sausage strata, fruit skewers, and monkey bread. We had strawberry champagne punch, beer, juice, milk and sparkling water. I like using reusable drinking glasses so we went with 8 ounce mason jars for the adults and plastic milk bottles (from Jilly Bean Kids) for the kiddos. And I used pink and red striped paper straws that I decorated with flags.
For sweets, I bought several flavors of cupcakes from my favorite D.C. cupcake shop, Baked & Wired. And the BEAUTIFUL chevron cake was made by Maggie Remudo from The Cake and The Frog -- she literally cut out the fondant over the invitation letter "C" to make it match perfectly. It tasted as good as it looked. I made the little banner hanging from two paper straws. Instead of goody bags, I had a little sweets table set up with red and white and some banana flavored candy (all from Candywarehouse.com).
We had a blast monkeying around!
Thanks Rebecca! Readers, visit Rebecca at her blog, Not-So-SAHM.

those invitations are amazing -- even matching stamps!
No offense, but what's up with all these elaborate and no doubt, expensive, toddler and kid parties? I hate this trend and it keeps getting more insane. It's not about the kids, its about the parents. Whatever happened to pin -the-tail on the donkey in the basement w/ a few balloons and cake?
No offense but I hate it when people start a sentence with no offense. who cares. she probably had fun planning it. live and let live.
Yikes....did they mean to put their home address up on here for all to see?
Cute party though! =)
I agree with the first comment on over the top birthdays for kids. I did them for my first born, gorgeous parties, very elaborate and YES, I had fun doing it...BUT the truth of the matter is that kids don't care. The best parties for them are the grocery store cake, pin the tale on the donkey and old fashioned fun!
I'm starting to feel the same way about these parties. As a mom of four, I've been envious of these featured parties for some time, but honestly, they're starting to seem strange to me. I don't know, I guess I'm starting to think it's tired. I don't mean to pick on this particular party, but just decided to voice my opinion. Maybe this family had an amazing time with the party and all its details, but as my daughter's birthday is upon me as of next week, and I haven't planned a grandiose affair, maybe I'm feeling inadequate seeing these posts. I guess part of me thinks I've come to start dreading my kids' birthdays because I haven't come to have one of these storybook celebrations for my kids, really. Maybe it's time for me to think of my kids, celebrate their lives, and not stress about the little things. It makes me long for a time when we just got a cake from the bakery, played pin the tail on the donkey, and opened some gifts. Feeling the pressure to have a massively planned theme party doesn't seem right to me anymore. What are we promoting? If it's truly about the kids, great. But when I see the littlest details coordinated, I can't help but feel that something's lost in it.
thank you RMIN, my feelings exactly. my friend just did a "very hungry caterpillar" party with six green cupcakes, two red ones for the face, and some cut out fruit, adorable but homemade. this is just silly and totally over the top. I would NOT want to go to this party.
Rebecca, I'm so sorry that people have made such jerky comments about your cute party. I think it looks like loads of fun and I'm sure that the little ones loved all the bright colors and patterns. And sock monkeys - you can't go wrong! I'm planning a party for my daughter now and while it's not everybody's cup of tea, I've found that putting together a zany kids' party can be really fun. Whatever, haters!
by all means, you shouldn't do a party like this if you don't enjoy planning it (especially for a 1 year old)! but my husband and I had so much fun planning my daughter's 1 year rock and roll party that was on here earlier this week. truly.
of course our daughter only understood/enjoyed some of the elements (she liked the bean bag toss but could care less about the coordinated food tags) --- but she did enjoy the party overall, and I think that's all that really matters. the rest is just a fun bonus.
who knows if our daughter will be amazed and appreciative when she sees the pics when she's older, or whether she'll think we were crazy and we'll all have a big laugh. either way, it will be nice :)
In respose to SLOPE saying you wouldn't want to go to this party, I just can't understand that. It doesn't look stuffy at all - it's at someone's house, after all! I know from our daughter's party pics that the kids had a GREAT time, and adults were talking about it being fun for days. plus at the party above, they even had champagne punch!! I'll go!
I love sock monkeys. the party is very cute. I like colorful and creative things but I do have to agree that these all cutesy parties are getting old. I guess I am just jealous as I can't figure out who has the time to do all this stuff. I can barely make it through a work day and then clean the house or do minimal chores. Maybe in another life....
Lovely party! There are two things that I learned about planning parties: 1) no matter the budget big or small it is a celebration make sure you and your guests have a great time 2) always you make sure you have enough food ( don't invite a ton of people if you can't feed them). It's your child, your decision, your money end of story.
I only invite people I care about. If you are going to be judgmental enough to not come because of the amount spent/size of the party/etc. you wouldn't be a person who would be invited anyway. Would you teach your child to treat a peer like that?
I'm a fan of simple parties--it's what we usually do for our kids. But if someone wants to throw a big bash, so what? Their money, their child, their business. Saying you wouldn't want to go to a party like this is ridiculous, in my opinion. Big or small, one balloon or deco galore, the kids have fun. I don't know about anyone else, but if my kids are having a good time, it's all good.
And for the record, I'm planning my son's upcoming birthday and I shamelessly admit I'm having way too much fun planning it. It's the first year he has asked for a specific theme, which he's really excited about: a NYC subway system party, more specifically of the R train/line. And it's so easy to find cheap or free stuff since we're NYC dwellers, that it's been nice, knowing it will put a huge smile on his face. And to me, that will make it all worth it.
i would love to get an invitation like that in the mail!
If you have the time, money, and ability to plan a fun party with thoughtful details, why not? It's a creative outlet for some people, leave them alone! I love sock monkeys, and think this is a great, gender-neutral idea that looks like tons of fun! Great job!
Rebecca, your party looked fantastic! I love that you really incorporated your daughters favorite toy - the sock monkey - into every little detail. That's so thoughtful and FUN. I actually didn't think this party seemed over-the-top at all. There are some I've seen on here {and pinterest} that are nuts...but yours wasn't. Don't let the negative comments from grumpy readers get you down! I threw a party very similar to yours for my twin daughters' first birthday and got a really nasty "Anonymous" comment on my blog about how "ridiculous of a party it was for one-year-olds." It made me feel bad! We tried for five years to have children and to finally be able to throw a birthday party was a big deal for me so yeah, my twins couldn't have cared less about the coordinating cakes and invitations, but so what? It's as much a celebration for you as it is for your child when they're young. Toddlerhood is hard and they're only young once! {And just because there aren't pictures of the children playing games and having fun doesn't mean they didn't have that. They could've been playing pin the tail on the sock monkey for all you guys know. Give this talented mama a break!}
I think that the thing about it is that people tend to like the featured parties when they highlight easy, creative ideas. (I'm thinking of stuff like the spy party when she made a 'laser' obstacle course using red string. So creative and easy and cheap!) This party is beautiful but the mom does say on her blog that she spent MONTHS planning it and obviously spent several hundred dollars on etsy, collecting all the cute details. There is nothing wrong with that, if you have the time and money, but I don't think many people need advice about how to spend loads of cash on a kids party. Thats easy. But where is the inspirational idea in this party?
Got some reeeeal jerks in this crowd. It's a 2 year old's birthday party, short of being the birthday grinch how could you find negativity in this? This party looks like it was a glorious affair.
FUUUNNNN. love love love the cake! That is amazing. Will try to pin it later :D
I didn't mean to pick on these people. Of course, they should do whatever they think is appropriate for them. Elaborate kid parties have been a sore subject for me since my daughter first started getting invites to them (she's now 12). Since I had the opportunity to comment, I decided to make a general statement about how things have gotten out of hand and maybe simple is better for children. The children themselves get bored at these things and even start to criticize each others parties as the get older. It becomes a competition among parents to outdo each other year after year. My daughter's very favorite parties that she still talks about were an old fashioned bowling party for 8 and a backyard barbecue with a sprinkler and slip'n'slide. I'm an illustrator and designer, so I like to put my stamp on things as well, when I plan a party...just keep it in perspective and make the kids the priority, not the parents. Now I just have to make it through the future Sweet 16's!

Not just what I expected but beyond
Scenery so appealing there's no word to describe this
No such thing as uncomfortable or timid
Only invitation, simplicity, liberation, amusement, the works!
Each breath makes me feel brand new
Each footstep encourages me to glide, skip and wiggle my toes even
Sounds blended hitting the ear with confidence
Perfection knows no sharps or flats
Life's weight lifted from these bodies revealing immaculately beautiful souls
This land has no hierarchy, no worry, no schedule, no walls, no ceiling
Just foundation
That foundation is God
It's no wonder these souls can fly!
And all of this I've seen as I make my way up the steps
To Heaven's Doorway

Not one but two budding fashionistas were born June 22 via surrogate to "Sex and the City" star Sarah Jessica Parker and Broadway regular Matthew Broderick. The twin girls, Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge, join the family's firstborn, 6-year-old James.
Much speculation has surrounded Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick's epic New York City housing search that has brought the duo downtown, uptown, and everywhere in between (even reportedly to the stroller-laden hood of Park Slope, Brooklyn). According to the Observer, the power couple recently ended their three year hunt and allegedly plunked down $18.995 million for a townhouse at 20 East 10th Street.

Last week, I did a presentation about storytelling that was, frankly, flat.
At first, I thought maybe a presentation at a conference on a Friday afternoon isn't the best idea given people are looking forward to socializing after a long day. Maybe I was tired after a long week, or perhaps the content simply didn't resonate with the audience.
But in reflecting more on it, I realized the problem was the presentation. After taking a closer look, I decided the presentation is based on a good idea but the material didn't have the best elements, content or flow.
What do you do?
If you're honest about any product, you reload. It doesn't mean scrapping the entire thing but, instead, only keeping the parts that work – even if it's only a small amount. What I'm doing is taking a completely fresh approach that, hopefully will lead to a better product.
Given the marketing work I do with startups, it struck me there are key lessons from the "failure" of my presentation given many startups discover their original idea isn't working. It could be timing, the economy or bad product-market fit.
One of the most difficult things for startups to do is accept is their current product isn't working. They spend so much time, effort and money to create a product that it seems ridiculous to think the market isn't interested.
This is a big mistake because it means startups refuse to accept reality. Startups that insist on banging away are destined to flail and probably fail.
When faced with the distinct prospect of failing, startups have to take a hard look at their product, market and the competitive landscape. Is what they're selling sell-able? Are their marketing and sales efforts capturing enough attention? Do potential customers take the leap from interest to purchase?
If the answer aren't clear or negative, a startup may have no choice but to reload. It could mean scrapping the product entirely or, more likely, finding something within their current offering they can leverage to head in a new and better direction.
Lesson: When a product isn't working for whatever reason, you need to think long and hard about doing something different. Otherwise, you'll start to spin your wheels.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - The number of requests for pardons that Governor Scott Walker has refused to consider has exceeded 1,400.
The AP said almost half the applications have been submitted in the two-plus years Walker has been governor, and rest were left over from former Governor Jim Doyle.
The Republican Walker refused to create a Pardon Advisory Board, and he suspended the state's pardon system in late 2011.
Milwaukee Senate Democrat Lena Taylor has proposed a bill forcing the governor to create the Advisory Council. It would meet every three months, and at least recommend pardons for Walker to consider.
Walker has said he doesn't want to interfere with the criminal justice system.
Pardons do not erase convictions, but they allow recipients to regain such privileges as possessing guns and voting.

The meanings in your sentences can be covered by two specific meanings of the verb 'see':
1. escort or conduct someone to a specified place
May I see you home?
b)to walk (someone to a place)
I'll walk you to the theater.
d)to accompany (which is more literary word)
The guide accompanied the tourist to the museum.
2. experience or witness an event or situation
to see (someone) off means to go to the railway station, to the aerodrome, etc. with someone who is starting on a journey, e.g.
I'm going to see my friend off. He is leaving for the Crimea.

Falmouth Farmers Market to Remain at Peg Noonan Park
By: CHRISTOPHER KAZARIAN, January 29, 2014
After several meetings, many of them emotional, selectmen kept with the status quo, voting to keep the weekly Falmouth Farmers Market at Margaret (Peg) E. Noonan Park for the entire year.
Although the market has been tied to that location since 2008 when it started, in recent years there have been complaints about the event's impact on traffic and parking in the downtown area.
Those complaints led selectmen to shift the operating hours of last year's market from noon to 6 PM to 11 AM to 5 PM as a way to reduce any conflict it had with the evening dinner crowd.
And during the fall the board began working on a special events policy that market organizers and supporters believed was targeted at them. The original policy would have required that any special events that charge participants for goods and services be allowed for an initial three years at Peg Noonan Park before being asked to relocate elsewhere in town.
After public input, selectmen decided to adopt a modified special events policy earlier this month that looked at an impact an event has on traffic and parking only during the months of July and August. Along with that the policy tasked town manager Julian M. Suso to seek input from appropriate town departments on all special events and make a recommendation to selectmen on whether they should be approved.
Quite candidly I think we are kicking the can down the road.
Selectman Kevin Murphy
While Mr. Suso's working group asked the farmers market to seek an alternative location for the months of July and August, last night selectmen voted to keep the event on Main Street with the goal of obtaining data over the summer to determine exactly what are the negative and positive impacts of the weekly event.
Selectman Mary (Pat) Flynn proposed the idea of not moving the market this year. During the summer she suggested the town do some actual planning as to alternative locations for the market as well as research, including traffic and parking studies, that would give the board real data on which to base any permanent decision it eventually makes. Her comments lead to clapping in the audience, which she shrugged off. "I know a lot of you have e-mailed me and I know this is what you want," she said. "I think we should make a more rational decision about this."
When the board kicked off the agenda item, Katherine A. Mahoney, the market's manager, asked that the event, held every Thursday from May to October, remain at Peg Noonan Park.
This past weekend, she said, market organizers polled 47 merchants on Main Street asking whether they were opposed to the event being at its normal location. She said a majority, 67 percent, had no issues with the market at Peg Noonan Park.
Push For Alternate Location
But selectmen, particularly Rebecca Moffitt and Kevin E. Murphy, did. The pair stressed that their concern with the market was over the location.
Ms. Moffitt lobbied for the market to be moved to in front of Gus Canty Community Center as a way to expand Main Street's presence farther east. The location, she said, would be ideal for the event with bathrooms, a place for children to play and easy access via Dillingham Avenue. And the Department of Public Works, she said, is willing to modify the green space there to make it flattering for vendors to sell their products.
Meanwhile Mr. Murphy asked about Bigelow Marine Park on Scranton Avenue, overlooking Falmouth Harbor. He noted there is plenty of shade there as well as the utilities, from electricity to water, organizers would need.
Despite these proposals Ms. Mahoney asked for the market to remain at Peg Noonan Park.
"If we say no to Peg Noonan park, do you have a second alternative?" Mr. Murphy asked.
"We do," Ms. Mahoney said.
"Because we were obligated to," said Patricia S. Gadsby, a board member of the market. Seconds later she remarked that it was odd that Mr. Suso's working group supported other weekly events during the summer in Peg Noonan, including the Falmouth Village Association's weekly movie and concert series, but were against the farmers market going there.
Related Content
Mr. Murphy pointed out those events were free while the farmers market was selling goods. "If you were giving away your product," he said, he would look at the market differently.
Among those to come to the market's defense was Elizabeth H. Gladfelter of Hidden Village Road, West Falmouth, who called the event one of the best things to happen to Falmouth in her 17 years of living in town. "I think it's a good idea to let the fair stay where it is and let's get some real data from this summer," she said.
James B. Robertson II of Main Street, Falmouth, asked the board to equate this to other hypothetical scenarios. What if the Memorial Day ceremony was moved to Falmouth Harbor or the 4th of July fireworks was moved to Falmouth High School, he asked, suggesting there would be a public outcry if this were to happen. The same is occurring now, he said, with the proposal to move the farmers market.
Others asked the board to consider the benefits the market brings to the downtown area and to look at it as an asset instead of a hindrance.
Selectmen ultimately sided with those supporting the market as Ms. Flynn, Douglas H. Jones and chairman Brent V.W. Putnam voted in favor of keeping it at Peg Noonan Park this year while collecting data and looking at alternatives for the future.
Prior to the vote Mr. Murphy complained that the board had wasted roughly seven to nine meetings on this issue and coming up with a policy related to special events that it was not even following. "Quite candidly I think we are kicking the can down the road," he said. "We spent nine meetings coming up with a policy and direction and now we're not even going to listen to it in any form or fashion."

Actually Governor Romney, what you just said is completely incorrect… This is NPR.
NPR has a new ethics handbook, which came out February 24th. Here's the key part:
We report for our readers and listeners, not our sources. So our primary consideration when presenting the news is that we are fair to the truth. If our sources try to mislead us or put a false spin on the information they give us, we tell our audience. If the balance of evidence in a matter of controversy weighs heavily on one side, we acknowledge it in our reports.
Fair to the truth. Pretty cool. It's already started to have an effect. This is from an NPR report on Feb. 27th about auto bailouts and the Republican candidates.
NPR REPORTER: Mitt Romney, son of former American Motors CEO George Romney, criticized President Barack Obama's handling of the bailout.
MITT ROMNEY: Instead of going through the normal managed bankruptcy process, he made sure the bankruptcy process ended up with the UAW taking the lion's share of the equity in the business.
NPR REPORTER: Actually, the U.S. Treasury got most of GM's equity.
Such a simple word: "Actually…." And now it has a chance to become standard practice at NPR.

Introducing our new game called:
"Don't Be A Di*k During Meals With Friends."
The first person to crack and look at their phone picks up the check.
Our (initial) purpose of the game was to get everyone off the phones free from twitter/fb/texting and to encourage conversations.
1) The game starts after everyone has ordered.
2) Everybody places their phone on the table face down.
3) The first person to flip over their phone loses the game.
4) Loser of the game pays for the bill.
5) If the bill comes before anyone has flipped over their phone everybody is declared a winner and pays for their own meal.
Variations/house rules:
-Starting the game after everyone is seated.
-In the rare event that multiple people flip their phones simultaneously, the bill is split between said players.
- Feel free to invoke penalties/strikes systems.
- No touching or messing with anybody else's phones.
- You don't have to stack the phones. This was done for picture taking purposes.
- I realize I should perhaps think of a different name for this awesome game. Because I don't mean to imply that everyone who checks their phone during meals is a di*k.
- I recommend not being such a stickler or hardass on people about the rules and even initiation of the game. Basic premise is to just get people open to the idea of staying active and attentive to one another. But if someone has to take a call; they have to take a call =).
- Have fun! It's really more of a fun concept in this new age high tech life of ours. Conversation is the spice of life.
Toola, the "Most Important Animal" in the History of the Aquarium's Sea Otter Program, Dies
The Monterey Bay Aquarium regrets to announce the death of Toola, a female sea otter who was arguably the most important animal in the 28-year history of the Aquarium's pioneering Sea Otter Research and Conservation program. Toola died early March 3 in the Aquarium's veterinary care center, of natural causes and infirmities of age.
She was the first rescued sea otter ever to raise pups that were successfully returned to the wild; and was the inspiration for state legislation that better protects sea otters.
Toola was about 15 or 16 years old when she died. She was rescued as a mature adult (5+ years of age) when she was found stranded on Pismo Beach on July 21, 2001. She suffered from neurological disorders, likely caused by infection of her brain by the protozoan parasite, Toxoplasma gondii. The resulting seizure disorder required twice-daily anticonvulsant medication and prevented her release back into the wild.
But she quickly became a pioneer for the Aquarium – on exhibit and behind the scenes. Toola was the first otter ever to serve as a surrogate mother for stranded pups. She raised 13 pups over the years, including one that was weaned from her on Friday as her health declined. Of the 11 pups already released to the wild, at least 5 are still surviving – including the first animal she reared in 2001. Her pups have matured in the wild and gone on to give birth to 7 pups of their own, 5 of which have weaned successfully. Two more of her pups are still behind the scenes, on track for release later this year.
Toola's most famous pup is the subject of a new feature film, Otter 501, which debuted in February at the Santa Barbara Film Festival.
On exhibit, Toola's story of exposure to the toxoplasmosis parasite that can be carried by cats inspired then-California State Assemblymember (now Insurance Commissioner) Dave Jones to introduce legislation to better protect California's threatened sea otter population. His bill, co-authored with current California Resources Secretary John Laird, became law in 2006. Among other provisions, it created the California Sea Otter Fund that has generated more than $1 million in voluntary taxpayer contributions to support research into disease and other threats facing sea otters in the wild.
"Toola was without question the most important animal in the history of our program," said Andrew Johnson, manager of the Aquarium's Sea Otter Research and Conservation program. "She showed us that captive otters could successfully raise orphaned pups for return to the wild. She inspired a critical piece of legislation that is helping protect sea otters. And she inspired millions of visitors to care more about sea otters. We will miss her."
"I will argue that there is no other single sea otter that had a greater impact upon the sea otter species, the sea otter programs worldwide, and upon the interface between the sea otters' scientific community and the public," said Aquarium veterinarian Dr. Mike Murray.
Although she was at the Aquarium for more than a decade, she remained a wild animal at heart, said Associate Curator of Mammals Christine DeAngelo – and a strong-willed one, too.
"It was clear to everyone on the sea otter exhibit team that Toola, not me, was really in charge," DeAngelo said. "When she wanted to work on something in a training session, she'd give me a 'look' or vocalize and I'd immediately cave in and do whatever she wanted. Now that she's passed, we're in need of another 'head trainer' to run the place."
The Monterey Bay Aquarium's Sea Otter Research and Conservation program has been studying and trying to save the threatened southern sea otter since 1984. With the support of its research, exhibit and policy teams, and the backing of donors and members, the Aquarium has rescued nearly 600 ill and injured otters, raises and releases stranded pups, and has placed non-releasable animals on exhibit in Monterey and at other accredited Aquariums across North America.
The research team plays a key role in field studies of sea otters in California, Alaska and Russia. The Aquarium also works on behalf of policies at the state and federal level that will advance the recovery of sea otter populations.

Via Gamedayr:
The United States Hockey League, the top junior ice hockey league in the country, held their annual draft on Monday and Tuesday.
For the most part, it proceeded as it typically would in any given year. That is, until, one of the very last picks.
Prior to the draft, a young man by the name of Jack Jablonski took to Twitter to let USHL teams know that he was eligible for this year's draft:
Dear USHL teams, Just thought I'd let u know I am eligible for tomorrow's draft. Sincerely Jack Jablonski— Jack Jablonski (@Jabs_13) May 7, 2013
If you aren't familiar with Jablonski, he suffered a horrendous injury during a Minnesota high school hockey game that left him paralyzed.
He's received tons of support since, even from hockey legend Wayne Gretzky and all-world running back Adrian Peterson.
It was on Tuesday night, however, that his dreams came true. The Chicago Steel stepped up to the plate and drafted Jablonski with their last pick of the draft.
With the final pick the Steel draft Jack Jablonski. Congrats @jabs_13 on becoming a member of the Steel!— Chicago Steel (@ChicagoSteel) May 8, 2013
For a kid who once had the world ahead of him on the ice, yet had it ripped away in a mere second, this moment will never be forgotten.
Best night ever. #steel— Jack Jablonski (@Jabs_13) May 8, 2013
Sports have an ability to lift people up and take away the pain, if only for a second.
A fantastic display by the Chicago Steel.

Nas in Nike Air Force 180 "Olympic"
August 13th, 2012 by Brendan Dunne | 4 comments
Nas is no stranger to grabbing the gold, actually surpassing that 500,000 units landmark pretty consistently in his discography with a whopping eight out of ten solo albums hitting platinum (Who said anything about a one hot album every ten year average?). Nonetheless he seemed pretty stoked on Team USA's ability to do so, showing up for a wild night out in London courtesy of Swizz Beatz to cap off the gold medal performance on the last night of Olympic festivities. Nasty even got on the mic for a bit apparently, pictured here with appropriately patriotic sneaks the Nike Air Force 180 'Dream Team' from the recent Olympic styled pack, flanked by gold bottles of course. Hit the jump to get the photos of Nas in this Nike Basketball classic.

Equal parts dearly departed television show Reaper and the film Sky High, Gina Damico, a local girl (at least to me) begins what is likely a series following Lexington (Lex) as she begins a career as a "Killer" (grim reaper, really). She has a scythe, a partner (Driggs, a Culler), a twin sister (Concord — get it? Lexington and Concord), parents who don't know what to do with her, and something of a conscience (when "killing" — taking away the soul of someone who is dead — a murder victim, especially when the murderer is there, why not go all grim repeat on the murderer's ass?). She's also a legacy, following in the footsteps of her uncle, Mort, mayor of Croak, the town where grim reapers live, at least those reaping in the eastern part of the country.
When unscheduled deaths begin occurring, Lex and the other "junior" reapers decide to take matters into their hands and investigate, not knowing that the mystery will soon deepen and begin hitting much closer to home.
A slew of dead historical celebrities, a well-developed world in which souls are harvested and contained, and a slow-simmering romance round out what you'll find when you scythe into Croak. Just be prepared to want to stay a while.
