Let's deal with the question on everyone's mind right off the top: Would the sequel to 2010's well-regarded horror comedy "Piranha 3D" be able to match the disembodied male sex organ quotient of the original? Happily -- or perhaps unhappily, depending on your feelings -- the answer is yes, sweet lord yes!
Summer movie season is here in all it's popcorn filled glory. Though as fun and indulgent as this time of year is for film fans, it can often leave horror fans wanting. Yet a strong set of films is on the horizon that should keep genre fans relatively happy throughout their summer break. So without further ado here are the 9 Most Anticipated Summer Genre Films.
Date: June 1
Director: John Gulager
Remind me how many D's this movie has again?
No surprise here, "Piranha 3DD" has been slapped with an R rating by the fine people at the MPAA because of it's gore and boobies. Those aren't the words they used but I think you get the idea. Boobies.
Hey remember "The X-Files"? I do too. Man we have so many memories in common. Well despite the lack luster results of 2008's "X-Files: I Want To Believe" film it looks like there's a solid chance writer Frank Spotnitz will be dropping another installment in the never ending series sometime in the next few years. Sorry fans of.... whatever the hell else he's been doing. You'll have to wait.
Vinnie Jones might be a giant man but for some reason to me he seems like a big old sweetheart. Vincent D'Onofrio on the other hand is probably a really nice guy but I always assume he's got woman locked in his basement. I'm not sure what 50 Cent does with his free time. The point here is that all three have joined Sylvester Stallone in "The Tomb", a film about a prison designer who must escape his own creation. I didn't say it was a good point.
If you like Bigfoot and you like "The Blair Witch Project" then you're going to love "Exists" which will officially start filming next week. The movie is a found footage flick by Blair Witch mastermind Eduardo Sanchez and tells the story of a group of campers in Texas who are stalked by the big one. If you're luke warm on one of those things and still like the other you might still be excited. I don't want to speak for you.
Something about saying this Illinois woman is under arrest for "tearing" her boyfriends scrotum off is so much worse then just saying she removed it. Or borrowed it. Tearing is so harsh. It makes my baby making parts hurt.
Remember in "Jackass" when what's his name went into the car wash to get all the doody off his ass? Well apparently that doesn't really work because police in British Columbia discovered a man screaming his head off in the middle of a car wash after he thought it would be funny to run through naked. If you can't trust "Jackass" who can you trust?
Further proof that there is no god, Mr. Tom Six himself has taken to the twitters to announce that "The Human Centipede 3" will feature no less then 500 plus people joined together. Sometimes I wish I was never born.
The words "erotic-thriller" make me really uncomfortable. Probably because the last time I saw a movie that was considered that it had Madonna pouring hot candle wax on Willem Dafoe's nipples. But "Attachment" is apparently a new one starring beaver vet Sharon Stone and today we've learned that Tom Felton has also joined the cast as the college student who has a one night stand with a married woman played by Stone. I pray for no candle wax. Or at least no Willem Dafoe.
"Piranha 3DD" has been a bit up in the air as of late but today we've learned that Dimension Films has given the boob-sploitation romp a June 1st release date. In case you've forgotten the film will be released both in theaters and VOD on the same day. Ya know, in case you can't handle seeing that kind of stuff with an audience. You sicko.
Of the 37 horror shows coming out shortly "666 Park Avenue" is the one that actually sounds kind of interesting. The show will focus on a couple that takes over running an apartment building that houses a number of residents who've sold their souls to the D-man. Matt Miller, the guy who produced "Chuck" has just signed on as executive producer of the show. I have no idea if that's a good thing or not.
Way to think outside the box. A woman in Culver City California is dead after what appears to be suicide by chainsaw. I have no idea how you even go about doing something like that. The planning must have taken days.
"Rare Bunny With No Ears Crushed by Cameraman." It's ok to cry.
To see boobies in 3D or not to see boobies in 3D. That is the question. It's a tough one, and unfortunately we're all going to have to answer it because Dimension films has just dropped that "Piranha 3DD" will be released both theatricality and on VOD at the same time. So will the dirtbag in me who wants to see bouncy things in 3D win over the part of me that hates seeing sunlight. I for one can't wait to see how this turns out.
There's so many genre shows in the works I almost forgot that there's already one I watch and kind of like. It's "American Horror Story". It's fun to learn things about each other isn't it? But the news here is that Evan Peters, Sarah Paulson, and Lily Rabe will all be returning for Season 2 as different characters. The story this season will take place on the East Coast and focus on Jessica Lange's character. I also really enjoy ice cream and Neil Diamond. I love you.
New movie alert! Oh god I love new movie alerts. The project is called "The Occult" and already has Rufus Sewell, Anne Heche, and Alycia Debnam-Carey in the cast. What's more it'll be directed by Christian E. Christiansen who directed "The Roomate" and that movie was terrible! Are you pumped? I was too excited to read the plot, but I did skim it and there's something about the devil's daughter coming to earth and a small town with some girls and some killings. Oh man, it's the best Monday ever.
Good for Julia Stiles. She's landed the lead role in the upcoming NBC series "Midnight Sun" about a FBI agent trying to track down a cult that mysteriously disappeared. I believe we're one step closer to finally seeing a "Save the Last Dance 2".
Rep. Roscoe Bartlett of Maryland has proposed the STACHE Act into his fine state. The act would give anyone with a mustache a 250$ tax break yearly. I believe it's time to move.
I've always though it would be cool to be in the Guinness Book of World Records. So did this guy in Sri Lanka apparently, because he attempted to break the record for longest time buried alive. He died though so I don't think he wins and there's a ton of people who have been buried dead for longer than him, so I think he's kind of f'ed.
The trailer for "Piranha 3DD" is finally here and I can't say there's any surprises in it but there's also everything you could possibly want. Lots of boobs, blood and over the top 3D are here for your viewing pleasure. There's also Ving Rhames with gun-legs and David Hasselhoff being kind of a prick. I feel like those last two things should have been some sort of surprise to me and everyone else. But they aren't. These are strange times we live in my friends.
The Holiday's are over, my friends. Now there is nothing but cold and misery to look forward to for the next 3 months. Sure you've got your New Years resolution, but you probably broke that already. I for one have opted to make mine somewhat reasonable. My promise to you is I will gain 15 pounds by 2013. I should have set it higher to be honest, I think I'm already up 7 from this past Sunday. Wish me luck.
Did you know that Tom Sizemore is still alive? I know I was surprised too, but there he is, popping up in the new trailer for "Human Factor", a new film about two investigators trying to find the reason for a mass disappearance of homeless people. Well alright his name is in the trailer, you don't actually see him. But I have to assume he pops up somewhere. I can't imagine they dug up his corpse or anything.
I have no idea what "Jessa Kill" is about but I'm 99% sure it stars a porn star, or would be porn star, as a some kind ninja cheerleader who kills zombies. It's a web series, I know that much. The porn star thing is what really got me hooked though. Episode 1 recently launched and it kind of made me feel all squishy inside. Ya know what I mean? Me either.
Marco Beltrami, an Oscar nominated composer who has a name that makes me question my sexuality, has been hand picked by the gods to compose the score for the upcoming big screen adaptation of "World War Z". For those of you not in the know that book revolves around a UN employee who races around the world trying to stop the zombie apocalypse. Beltrami... just say it out loud.
Yesterday I guess there was news that "Piranha 3DD" would be going direct to DVD over in the UK. I was sleeping most of the day so I missed this. But today it looks like that news was horse doodie anyway so crisis averted. This morning was a real roller coaster ride of emotions for me.
Pit bulls are adorable and all but make no mistake once they get a taste for blood they will destroy any human they come in contact with. For instance this jogger in Chicago who was attacked for 45 minutes by a blood thirsty duo. 45 minutes... Doing anything for 45 minutes is miserable, especially getting your ass bit by two dogs.
And because you want the holidays to last just a little longer, here's a video of Steven Tyler, Alice Cooper and Weird Al singing "Come Together" on New Years Eve. You're welcome.
Not as sexy as Rose McGowan with a gun leg, but way more awesome.
What the world needs now is more graphic novel adaptations. Now more than ever. So thank the good people at Solipsist Films who are making a big screen adaptation of the GN (let's call them GN's from now on, it sounds hip) "In The Dust". The GN tells the story of a group of families being attacked by vampires in 1930's Chicago. The world also needs more vampire movies but that goes without saying.
There hasn't been a ton of BUZZ around "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D" (see what I did there) but today we've got our first poster from the flick. And while I don't think the poster is going to cause much BUZZ on the tubes I sure am glad I SAW it. Oh man I'm on a roll today. A chainsaw roll! That makes no sense I know but let's just go with it.
If there's been a question on my mind since the announcement of "Piranha 3DD" it's how the hell were they going to bring back Ving Rhames? Well today we've got a teaser for the flick and we find out. I don't want to spoil it but it's pretty awesome. There's also a ton of boobs. It's a good day.
You don't need to know what "Black Butterfly" is about. You just need to know that Nicolas Cage has signed on to the film and that it will be awesome. Alright fine! The movie's about a drunk author who takes in a hobo in the hopes of finding inspiration. Man I can't wait to see how they make this movie awesome because that story sounds terrible.
Did you see "The Town"? Man it was pretty great. Ben Affleck has officially warmed his way back into my heart. I forgive him for all that J-Lo crap. A group of Brooklyn fellas must have liked it too because they've been arrested on suspicion of burglarizing 62 small businesses and using the tactics used in the movie as their inspiration. It's that good!
I'm no one to judge people for their turn-ons but I've always made it a point to ask someone before I go around licking their knees and face. But maybe things are done differently in Arizona. I don't know. I'm old fashioned.
CC's back, Joe's confused, and we hope you enjoy the new sound!
A movie that has the crew conflicted.

It took two years of preparation, but Randolph College is now one of just 10 schools in Virginia—and the first in Lynchburg—to earn national accreditation from the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC).
National accreditation, especially from a respected program such as TEAC, gives colleges and their graduates an edge. "The reputation as a college that prepares its students to be highly qualified, caring, and competent teachers is extremely important to our students as they enter today's job market," said Gail Brown, a Randolph education professor.
Founded in 1997, TEAC is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving academic degree programs for professional educators. The organization has accredited more than 100 schools in 21 states. TEAC requires schools to examine goals and student outcomes and to show that graduates meet criteria quantitatively and qualitatively. TEAC then sends an audit team for review.
"I always thought our program was good," said Consuella Woods, a Randolph education professor. "But TEAC gave us an opportunity to make it even better. We have documented proof that our program can be compared, not just with other institutions around the state, but also at the national level."
In the review, TEAC recognized a unique aspect of Randolph's undergraduate and master's programs—the heavy emphasis on practical experiences in the classroom. Students receive classroom experience each year, a requirement hailed by students and graduates as a key element for preparing them for success. For Jamie Steigerwald '10, it meant she was ready to handle her own classroom when she was offered a paid, part-time teaching position as a physical education teacher at a local private school during her senior year.
The classroom placements help students develop and practice teaching strategies with the support and guidance of faculty members.
In Steigerwald's case, she was able to adjust to teaching in both a classroom and a gymnasium.
"The strategies I learned were very helpful, and it was nice to be able to talk to professors about what things could be changed and modified to help," she said. "Without all of the real experience I have received, I would not feel as prepared to teach."
Steigerwald believes the national accreditation will help her in the job market. Others agree.
"For me, there is a great sense of pride in my alma mater as well as the security of knowing that I have been prepared to teach anywhere," said Sandra Goldman '10.
Though the TEAC accreditation process was intense, faculty members said the time and effort was worth it.
"This national recognition is a proud distinction for Randolph College," said Peggy Schimmoeller, an education professor. "TEAC accreditation further validates the quality of Randolph's teacher education program, its comprehensive curriculum, and the committed faculty and highly qualified teacher candidates."

Don't like tobacco taxes? Grow your own
New Yorker combats rising 'sin taxes' by growing tobacco in her Brooklyn yard.
Sin taxes have always been a popular way to raise money.
They tend to adversely affect a relatively small group, which makes the legislators enacting the taxes, and the majority of folks who don't have to pay them, more comfortable.
They are usually presented as "it's for everyone's good" campaigns. The catastrophic results of the sin are emphasized and at least part of the new tax money is targeted to programs tied to the specific bad habit.
That's the case with cigarettes. When tobacco taxes are hiked, the health dangers to both smokers and breathing bystanders are regularly cited. And the tax money typically goes to fund some sort of health-related program.
In the short term, a tobacco tax hike can cause state revenue problems. The National Conference of State Legislatures says that such tax increases can result in stockpiling of cigarettes prior to the implementation of the tax, producing a temporary drop in sales immediately following the tax increase.
And at least one New York woman has gone beyond simply stockpiling cartons.
In Audrey Silk's backyard, along with the rose bushes, geraniums and impatiens, are 100 tobacco plants in gardening buckets. She dries the leaves in her Brooklyn home's basement.
Once the process is complete, Silk rolls and enjoys her tax-free homegrown cigarettes.
New York has the highest cigarette tax in the United States. But there are no federal, state or city laws prohibiting New Yorkers from growing tobacco at home for personal consumption, notes The New York Times.
Wanna bet lots of smokers now are looking into their state and local laws?
Silk buys tobacco seeds online for about $2. She expects her 2009 and 2010 crops to produce a total of 45 cartons and estimates that she will have saved more than $5,000.
"It'll make the antismokers apoplectic," Silk told the Times. "They're using the power of taxation to coerce behavior. That's not what taxation is supposed to be for."
Taxes or personal policy?
Silk makes a good point. Tax policy is used at all levels to support some lifestyle choices and discourage others. The debate about whether that's the appropriate use of tax laws has been raging on since the first sin tax was created.
Even when I personally support a sin or other type of tax, I am disgusted by the self-righteousness of many pushing to not only collect revenue, but essentially punish via pocketbook the person who has the offending habit.
But despite the pompous rhetoric and personal predilections of politicians, in the end, it all comes down to how much money a government needs to operate and from which taxpayers the elected officials can most easily get the money.
By most easily, I mean not only the amount of money and the actual act of collecting the tax, but also which group of voters will be least likely to vote out the tax-enacting lawmakers.
Remember, the health care reform funding debates. A tax on plastic surgery was proposed first. Doctors across the county screamed and the less-powerful tanning booth owners took the tax hit instead.
It's that type of public policy making that prompted Silk, a retired police officer, to found the smokers' rights group New York City CLASH (Citizens Lobbying Against Smoker Harassment).
Up in tax smoke
How big is your state's tobacco tax? Since 2002, 47 states, the District of Columbia and several U.S. territories have increased their cigarette tax rates more than 100 times.
But if you live in the South, you're probably not paying that much per pack.
Data from the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids that the overall U.S. tobacco tax
average is $1.45 per pack. But the average tax in the country's major tobacco growing states is just 48.5 cents per pack.
The map here, created by the National Conference of State Legislatures, gives you a colorful overview of U.S. cigarette excise taxes.
If you prefer text, The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids has the cigarette tax info in table format.
The cigarette tax rate map and table are likely to change as cash-strapped states look for ways to raise more money.
Right now, new California Gov. Jerry Brown is pushing his state's legislature to act by March 10 on a measure that would let voters in June decide whether to extend higher sales, income and vehicle tax rates.
The California proposal measure also would increase the Golden State's cigarette tax by $1 a pack. And yes, the money would go to cancer research and smoking prevention programs.
More from Don't Mess with Taxes and MSN Money:
I buy my smokes tax free. Once you know who to talk to, you can buy cigarettes again without all those pesky taxes to pay. I have not bought a pack of cigarettes in a store for at least the past 2 years. I'd rather support the crooks running the tax free smokes than the crooks running politics.
Although I admit smoking anything is'nt the healthiest thing you may do. I have been growing my own tobacco for several years now. And yes it is much cheaper. About 35 cents a pack actually. But the main reasoning is. Do you know what is added to commercial cigarettes?Ever wonder why you can leave a pack on the dashboard of your car for a week and they wont dry out? Whereas mine will dry and the tobacco will fall out. Just one of many additives! I like mine au naturale.
And we just waved at the taxman, Sittin on our bag of seeds.
Greedy, grabby, grubby governments at all levels will use any excuse to extract wealth from the minority in any society by vilifying them in the State-run press, such as the United States has done.
"Sin Taxes" are a perfect example of 'mob rule' also known as 'democracy' where the parasites invent an excuse to extort wealth from 'value producers.' Another example of Liberalism run wild in this article.
Tobacco was a Cash Cow for this country before it even WAS a country. So, naturally, the Liberals must destroy it. Same with alcohol. Without taxes, I could drink all the alcohol I wanted for about $1 a gallon.
Don't forget to blame the Indians...oh, excuse me, Native Americans..oh wait, North American aboriginals--they introduced our European ancestors to tobacco (not to mention, hash, hemp, weed, et. al.) I guess it isn't PC to point out to the revisionists in the American Communist Party (Democrats) to speak of such things....Oh well. I'll enjoy seeing our former REPUBLIC unravel and leave the Liberal holding a certain body part below the waist in his hand when it finally happens....
Oh and nowadays everything is blamed on smoking, I wonder how come all these diseases and health problems existed prior to people using tobacco? Lets face ti the whole thing is about people control, it was a way the government could get something passed that gave them permission to control individuals and they are taking advantage of it.
Easy, they will just pick a new target. Coffee lovers, chocoholics, fast food or whatever is deemed a "health hazard" at the time. Non smokers don't care if smokers are taxed, Non drinkers don't complain when booze is taxed. All will complain loudly when the politicians get around to taxing their particular vice but it will be too late. You should have frowned on the practice of sin taxes when it was somebody else's turn in the barrel.

4.5 miles, begins across KY 90 at trail 9 (Eagle Falls) parking lot, several branches off of main trail, be sure to follow signage, gradual climb uphill until reaching top of ridge and old logging road, passes through nature preserve gate, descends to river and joins Sheltowee Trace, at junction go left and follow river to Gatliff Bridge
Known as the Niagara of the South, Cumberland Falls attracts outdoor enthusiasts and the curious each year. The reason being is that it offers a phenomenon not found anywhere else in the Western Hemisphere. The 125 ft waterfall displays a moonbow at night during a full moon that is truly a sight to see. While spectacular, the moonbow isn't nearly all that Cumberland Falls has to offer. Horseback riding, 17 miles of hiking trails, and opportunities for paddling and fishing on the Cumberland River.

La Rouret is a classic Provincial village, agricultural in origins and laid back in atmosphere. In recent years, Le Rouret has started to feel the benefits of increased income as discerning travellers begin to look for peaceful, private villa rentals for their holidays on the glorious beaches of the French Riviera. Whilst Le Rouret is still very much off the beaten tourist routes, the village is well loved by everyone that knows it, and every year brings more cultural events that act as a showcase to a very receptive travelling public.
Life in the village is firmly centred around the church Saint Pons in the centre. Here lively games of boules are played long into the evening whilst market stalls trade their wares every Wednesday. There are plenty of atmospheric little pavement cafes in which to sit and watch the world drift by here too, and many hours can be spent sitting around the central square during your stay in Le Rouret villas. The main attractions in the village are the magnificent Caves of Beaume-Robert, just a couple of hundred metres from the village centre. They are incredibly beautiful, and with the guidance of a local guide, you can still explore the caves for yourself.
A holiday rental villa in Le Rouret is a fantastic base for exploration of the French Riviera. Located equidistant from Cannes and Nice, and set to a backdrop of the dramatic Gorges du Loup, the village of Le Rouret couldn't be better connected for a first time visitor to the south coast of France.
In the immediate vicinity of the village are some wonderful monuments too. Artefacts dating back from the Bronze Age can be found, from the Dolmen at Clamarquier to the Roman bridge found in the village. The church Saint-Pierre in Le Rouret is also well worth investigation from a Le Rouret property rental, even if only for the views across the Gorges du Loup.
The Fete de la Truffle in January has become hugely popular since it started in 2004, with visitors coming from around the world to stay in Le Rouret property and enjoy the festival atmosphere.
The proximity of Grasse has had a huge influence on Le Rouret. As the perfume capital of the world, Grasse consumes almost all of the agricultural roses, jasmine and orange blooms grown on the slopes around Le Rouret, although some can still be bought in the shops and market stalls of Le Rouret. A perfumery tour of Grasse is well worth taking, especially when staying in Le Rouret, as you will discover a huge amount about the village too.
During the summer months, it is hard to resist the beaches of the Cote d'Azur as temperatures soar into the mid 30's with staggering regularity daily from June until September. Even during winter, you would be very unlucky to experience temperatures of less than 10˚C during the day.
Nice International Airport (NCE) is just 26km from a holiday rental property in Le Rouret, making your Riviera exploration commence with ease. There are regular flights from across the UK on both 'no frills' airlines and the more comfortable (and expensive) airlines. Although you can reach a Le Rouret property by public transport, taking a hire car from the airport is advised.

Hooksett man charged with first degree assault

Hawaii Beef Comes Home
More of It Is Now Back in Hawaii
(page 1 of 2)
Illustration by Andrew J. Catanzariti
Call it Hawaii's most unusual export.
For years, the vast majority of calves born in Hawaii have been sent to feed lots on the mainland, where they matured, and then were slaughtered and shipped to grocery stores and restaurants around the country. Rarely did the beef return to Hawaii.
But demand for locally grown food and grass-fed beef has prompted a new program aimed at bringing Hawaii-born beef to Island stores and restaurants.
Last December, the Hawaii Cattle Producers Cooperative Association launched the Hawaii Ranchers Hawaii Country Beef program, which would bring Hawaii-born beef products back to the state. It's part of Country Natural Beef, a ranching co-op based in Oregon, with more than 100 member-owners selling more than $50 million worth of beef annually.
In the program, Hawaii-born calves are shipped to feed lots in Oregon, where they are kept separate from cattle from other states. They receive no hormones or antibiotics, and are fed a vegetarian diet that has no animal by-product feeds and, whenever possible, has no genetically modified grains. The cows are processed on the mainland and the meat is shipped to Hawaii.
The beef is being sold as Hawaii Country Beef in select Foodland Farms stores on Oahu and has been distributed to restaurants such as Roy's, Alan Wong's, 3660 on the Rise, Café Laufer, the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel on Hawaii Island and Pineapple Grill on Maui.
While Hawaii ranchers are known for top-quality cattle, advocates say, consumers and restaurateurs most often buy local to support Hawaii's agriculture industry.
"The point is that the local consumer has an opportunity to support Hawaii ranchers by purchasing this product," says Keoki Wood, livestock operations manager for Parker Ranch, which sends most of its calves through Country Natural Beef.
Betty Spence, general manager of the Hawaii Cattle Producers Cooperative Association, says it also "comes down to a personal preference for grass-fed versus grain-fed products."
This is the latest initiative by the HCPCA to provide local consumers with Hawaii meat.
In 2009, it started marketing Hawaiian Red Veal to restaurants and retailers. The veal is produced from Hawaii-born calves that are 20 to 24 weeks old and weigh 500 to 600 pounds. These calves have been weaned off their mothers and grazed on grass in open pastures.
In 2010, the Hawaii co-op began selling ground beef at select Foodland locations on Oahu, made from locally raised, grass-fed cattle. Both the Hawaiian Red Veal and the ground beef, which is branded as "Hawaii Ranchers belonging to Hawaii Cattle Producers Coop," are free of hormones and antibiotics.
In May, the U.S. Department of Agriculture awarded more than $58,000 to HCPCA to market its Hawaiian Red Veal, ground beef and Country Natural Beef programs.
HCPCA is looking at other beef products for Hawaii consumers including hot dogs, beef jerky and frozen, ready-to-eat beef entrees.

Dollar General's Extraordinary Results
Himanshu is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Every company has various phases in its existence. There are a number of ups and downs that make the path of success even more interesting. The most wonderful aspect in any business is competition. It makes companies become better and enables customers to get the best products at the best price along with best possible service. Every industry undergoes this challenge, and discount retail is no exception.
Intense competition amongst discount retailers has benefited consumers, as they get the lowest prices for their daily needs. Players such as Family Dollar Stores (NYSE: FDO) and Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT) have resorted to the marketing strategy of pricing goods for as low as $1, which lures many customers to their stores. In an environment where every penny is spent judiciously by customers, these stores make a lot of difference to their budget.
Another prominent player is Dollar General (NYSE: DG), which has been quite active on all strategic fronts and is making the most out of the current economic situation. Its recent third quarter results highlight its popularity among consumers, making investors pretty delighted that it beat market expectations.
Exploring the Quarter…
A host of factors such as strong promotions, a better product portfolio, and inclusion of better brands led to a jump of 10% in revenue, clocking $3.96 billion. Indeed, it was a solid quarter for Dollar General as it expanded its presence by adding new stores. It also increased its promotional activities, which led to increased footfall in its stores, with higher transaction size on each visit.
The retailer's consumable items segment was the star performer this time as consumers flocked to stores for products such as perishable items. Demand for such products led to a growth of 11% in the segment and was the key driver for top line growth, since it is the largest segment for Dollar General.
Dollar General's strategy of remodeling its stores to larger ones seemed to work well as it lured more customers as compared to last year. This is in contrast to what rival Wal-Mart has been doing. Wal-Mart has been shifting to smaller sized stores, which help in easy navigation and lower costs for the retailer.
Key Segment…
Dollar General has been eying the toy segment for quite some time now. It has made a number of efforts to outperform its competitors, such as offering discounts when toys above a certain value are bought. Additionally, it is trying to get a wide range of branded toys onto its shelves in order to provide an increased variety of products.
A very important driver in the segment is price. The discount retailer has kept its price low, adapting to the current economic situation where customers are price sensitive. Given the initiatives taken, the toy segment looks reasonably attractive and has the potential to grow in the future.
The retailer is also on the verge of diversifying into a new product line. It is planning to add cigarettes to its product portfolio. Though this will bring higher revenue, margins might get hurt due to lower margins in the product. Moreover, Dollar General is not the first dollar store to add tobacco products. Even Family Dollar Stores, an arch rival, has already started offering cigarettes. In fact, Family Dollar has been performing quite well, with a higher same store sales growth than Dollar General.
The Bottom Line
However, the retailer might be able to outperform its rival through enhancement of its product portfolio and expansionary moves. Even though the peak holiday season is knocking at the door, Dollar General is cautious about the coming months, which is reflected in its outlook. But its initiatives of increased advertising and lower prices seem to be enticing. Addition of well-known brands will also play a major role. These efforts and an exceptional quarter make me think positively about the company. The retailer seems to have huge potential, and can prove to be an exceptional performer in the long term.

Less than two weeks after announcing the departure of bassist Kim Deal , the Pixies have returned with their first new single in nine years, " Bagboy ." The group posted a video for the track on Friday, which follows the exploits of a teenage boy as he goes shopping and then comes home to trash his house.
"The lyrics, coincidentally, were composed at a Starbucks Coffee in Harvard Square in Cambridge, about a hundred feet from where, 25 years ago, I composed some of the lyrics to an old Pixies song called 'Break My Body,'" said frontman Black Francis in a statement. "The music for the song has been around for a few years."
In addition to watching the video, you can score a free download of "Bagboy" at the Pixies official website.

Most kids love fruit-filled bars. But not only are they an expensive snack, they are sometimes filled with less-than-healthy ingredients (like high-fructose corn syrup). This wholesome version, made with oatmeal and whole wheat flour, not only tastes better than the store-bought variety, but is better for you too. Wrap each bar in plastic, seal in a zip-top bag, and freeze; since it only takes an hour or so to thaw, when you pack it in your child's snack or lunch bag, it will be ready to eat when they are.
Makes 15 bars
Variations: If blueberries aren't your thing, feel free to experiment with other flavors of preserves. Just be sure to use jam (which contains both fruit juice and flesh) rather than jelly (which is just juice).
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with 2-inch sides with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together oatmeal, flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt and brown sugar. Using the large holes on a box grater, grate the butter and add it to the oatmeal mixture.
Using your fingers or two knives, combine the oatmeal mixture with the butter until it forms pea-size chunks.
Pour the milk into a small bowl. Add the lemon juice to the milk and stir to combine. Add the vanilla and mix well.
Pour the milk mixture into the oatmeal mixture and stir with a fork until all the dough is evenly moistened. It will have the consistency of cookie dough.
Press just over half of the dough evenly over the bottom of the prepared pan, using a sheet of plastic wrap so it doesn't stick to your hands. Spread the blueberry preserves evenly over that, then crumble the remaining dough over the blueberry preserves. Some of the jam will be visible through the topping.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until topping is golden brown. Cool completely in the pan, and then cut into 2x3-inch bars. Wrap bars in plastic, seal in a zip-top bag and freeze for longer storage. Otherwise, eat within 2-3 days.

A Glitter Wall for A Kid's Room?
Personally, I'm not a big fan of glitter; I tend towards Demetri Martin's sentiment. But used judiciously, I've seen it work well as a design element. How about a whole wall of glitter? Would you consider it in a child's room?
There's an internet rumor going around that HGTV claims mixing glitter and glue and painting it on your wall will produce the above results. We have been unable to verify that rumor, and in fact, the image above is a glitter wallpaper.
So, wallpaper or glue: would you glitter your kid's wall? Do you like the look but fear the mess? Or is the look not for you?

Seems like it would be a bitch to paint over if you change your mind.
I think it could be lovely and magical in a nursery or child's room.
Painted-over wallpaper is one of the biggest pains... it's always ugly. Resist painting, and steam it off instead.
I'd more likely go for stenciled glittery stars. They're bigger and not as overbearing.
Will it shed glitter? If so, no.
I wasn't sure about the idea of glitter wallpaper in a kid's room, but it looks really magical. I would definitely consider it (by "it", I mean the wallpaper... I would not mess around with glitter and glue on a wall).
I would use a wallpaper. When I've seen glitter glued/painted onto walls, like in nail salons, it always looks blotchy. Also, when the glitter flakes stick flat to the wall, they don't reflect like you see in your photo - they're all in the same plane.
The only way I would ever consider such a thing is if it were:
* guaranteed no mess! (The glitter + paint combo sounds like a nightmare) and
* easy to clean (What kid wouldn't want to scribble all over it?)
I find that I rely a great deal on those "magic sponges" to remove the occasional this or that from a wall. I'm not sure wall paper would hold up so well to the abrasion. Anyone know?
Glitter is the herpes of the craft world.
I think glitter only works in large doses. I think a little glitter looks cheesy, but a lot of glitter looks rock star!
Bahahaha @dustinstruckmeyer, I was JUST considering posting that, but was afraid it would be too crude for the AT crowd. My sister has been saying that for years and I always think to myself "glitter = craft herpes" before I add glitter (I still love glitter, but it's true, it never really goes away).
I think this looks amazing for a girl's room. That said, I would never do it in my house.
I like it. Anything bright or exciting is good for children. It actually annoys me a bit when I see these dull or subtle color choices chosen by parents for their children. Kids need to be stimulated -- their rooms are their spaces, it should be about them.
This is awesome! I love it! I think with in a monochromatic room with a lot of masculine decor it could even look awesome in an adult's space. Though it might look cheesier in person since the photo isn't very sharp and blurs the wall a little...
I love it!
Even better was this with the floor:
If my husband wouldn't kill me, I'd do it!
I knew someone who did it. It was fun, but wow was it a pain to paint over!!! So no, I wouldn't.
I really want a chalkboard wall, but live in a rental, so am thinking of painting a huge piece of plywood, and hanging it. might try it with glitter on the other side now! also You dont have to worry about painting over it!
I LOVE glitter.
While I think the look could work in the room, I would NEVER try the glue/glitter mix. I've seen it floating around Pinterest and everytime I see it I think "dear god... how would you ever get rid of it???" Even though I have a general dislike of wallpaper (removing room after room of bad 70's non-peelable wallpaper will do that do you) this is one of the time when I think it is hands down the better choice.
I found glitter topcoat paint at girly me.com, but you could easily make it yourself much cheaper with superfine glitter and clear glaze paint. That would work a lot better than glue. It makes your color options endless, since it tops any wall color. I definitely want to paint an accent wall in my art studio eventually. It would be so magical with Christmas lights reflected off of it!
OMG! I'm considering this for MY room! So cool!
I've secretly coveted glitter walls ever since I saw that photo by Aaron Ruell (this one: http://g-ec2.apartmenttherapy.com/2528330/02ruell_rect540.jpg)
Oh wow, that IS amazing!
Why just for kids? I think it would be fun in any small room -- the back wall of a foyer, a lavatory (not a full bath where steam would be a problem, though), some hallways...
But I would definitely use the wallpaper. Reversibility of something this "extreme" is definitely a factor to keep in mind!
As for glitter stars, scrapbook paper is the answer for that!
And as for the "herpes" comment -- Martha Stewart sells glitter. Tell HER that it's the herpes of the craft world! (There are good taste and bad taste versions of any craft...)
FYI, that is a quotation from Demetri Martin, which I referenced in the article... check out the link to see a fun graphic of it.
That's the Demetri Martin quotation I linked to above... check out the link for a fun graphic of the sentiment.
If you would click the link in the text, you would see that Demitri Martin is the one who coined the phrase "Glitter is the Herpes of Craft Supplies". Since it was linked in the post, I'm sure it's cool to say it in the comments.
I would consider the wallpaper option in the back of a bookcase, display case, alcove, or niche - large small doses. I don't think I could handle a large wall of it. However, the article's picture looks nice - but having a four year old - I can't image it in a child's room. Oiy!
Ugh! No!
I can't get enough of it! This post just lead to me losing two hours of my life searching the internet for glitter wallpaper on the cheap (non existant) or a DIY/Tutorial that actually showed the outcome (also non-existant).
I am an art teacher and I've done this before, but not with glue! You can use a gloss, varnish, or polyurethane. Pour glitter in and mix well. It dried lovely and hasnt peeled in 7 years. If you are painting for a long period of time, remix because the glitter might settle at the bottom. I like to do a few coats for overlapping shine.

Fifteen Die On Kentucky Roadways Last Week
May 16 through May 22
Date of Release: 05/24/05
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - Preliminary statistics* indicate that 15 people died in 13 separate crashes on Kentucky's roadways from Monday, May 16 through Sunday, May 22.
Of the 13 fatal crashes, preliminary data* indicates alcohol was a suspected factor in four of the crashes and five of the victims were not wearing seat belts. The seat belt status of one of the fatalities is unknown at this time. One of the fatalities was riding a bicycle and one was a pedestrian.
Allen and Grant counties each reported one double-fatality crash. Single fatality crashes occurred in Edmonson, Jefferson, Kenton, Knox, Laurel, Lincoln, Meade, Perry, Pike, Todd and Wolfe counties.
As of May 22, 2005, a total of 326* people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways. This is an increase of 11 over the same time period in 2004. One hundred and ninety-one of these 326 fatalities were not wearing seat belts.
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.

The most portable, but potentially the least comfortable(depending on your preferences), the in ear headphone has become widely popular with the on-the-go crowd. Earphones incorporate an eartip (typically made of silicone or foam) which creates a seal with the ear canal, blocking out an incredible amount of ambient noise and yielding fantastic sonic results.
Most commonly used when exercising, playing sports or on-the-go; earphones are also widely used by musicians for monitoring purposes in professional applications. Some brands which specialize in quality earphones include Shure, Westone, Sennheiser, Etymotic Research, Klipsch and Yurbuds.

Well speaking of jokesters and pranks, so far the best April Fool's joke comes from BMW with their new M3 - the world's fastest pickup. A prototype was "caught testing" recently and BMW couldn't even hold out until April 1st before they confirmed that it was indeed just a prank. But staying true to their powers of pranking, the German automaker still released full details on their new M3 pick-up.
The M3 Pick-up is powered by a V8 engine and features a generously sized load area in the back and a removable Targa roof. The pick-up, which is only 110 lbs heavier than the convertible M3, offers a maximum load capacity of 992 lbs. The best part? The M3 pickup can hit a top speed of 186 mph (as a reminder, all of the other M3 models are limited to 155 mph).
The official BMW statement states: "the BMW M3 Pickup will not be heading for the golf course or series development, but will retain its status as an exclusive one-off. It is earmarked for use as a workshop transport vehicle for BMW M GmbH. With this in mind, the current BMW M3 Pickup – unlike a similar predecessor built back in the 1980s – has gone through the requisite procedures to earn its road certification. Which makes it officially a truck – but one that puts a whole new spin on the meaning of the word."
The idea behind this is absolutely fascinating and just the sheer curiosity of it all would have made this the best April Fool's joke ever, had BMW lasted long enough to make it to April 1st.

Ann Arbor, Mich. • The University of Michigan's 10-year dissociation from Chris Webber, Maurice Taylor and Louis Bullock is over.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
The former Wolverines can formally reconnect with the school after one of the biggest scandals in NCAA history. Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon insisted the door is open.
"I've never met any of those guys and I am looking forward to meeting them," Brandon said Tuesday night in an interview with The Associated Press. "If any of those guys are interested in meeting with me that would be great."
The NCAA forced Michigan to dissociate from Webber, Taylor, Bullock and the late Robert Traylor for a decade — until May 8, 2013 — because a federal investigation revealed now-deceased booster Ed Martin gave them more than $600,000 when they were student athletes.
As of Wednesday, Webber, Taylor and Bullock have the option of renewing their relationship with the school — if they choose. Brandon declined to say whether each would have to apologize for what they were accused of doing.
"I wasn't around when all of this happened," he said. "I've never had an opportunity to interact with them to talk about anything and I am hopeful that opportunity will present itself."
Taylor hopes so, too.
"This morning, I felt really good about the dissociation being over and having the opportunity to reunite with the University of Michigan," Taylor told The AP on Wednesday. "I'm excited to talk to Mr. Brandon and coach [John] Beilein. While I had some success in the NBA, there was a void in my life because of the circumstances. I had three of the best years of my life there and I love that school and all that it stands for."
Martin pleaded guilty to conspiracy to launder money, saying he took gambling money and combined it with other funds in loans to Webber, other players and their families.
Martin died in February 2003 on the same day Michigan officials met with the NCAA infractions committee.
"Ed was made out to be something he wasn't, he wasn't a booster who steered you to a school or guy who preyed on kids," said Taylor, a retired NBA player, who lives in Houston and works for a private equity business. "He was just a great guy in Detroit, who helped out anybody playing ball of any kind in the city. When each one of us took money or gifts from Ed, long before we were in college, we were looking through innocent eyes. We weren't trying to hurt Michigan.Next Page >

A Buckeye man attempted to stab his mom with a kitchen fork during an argument over his prescribed medication, Buckeye police said.
David Childers, 25, faces a number of charges, including aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, resisting arrest and inflicting injury to an animal.
Officers said Childers turned his anger on two dogs inside the home and struck them repeatedly with his hands.
The woman suffered swelling after Childers slapped her on the face and body. He then grabbed the fork and intentionally tried to stab her multiple times, according to a probable cause statement.
The woman was able to get the fork out of his hands and ran to the phone to call 911. She said her son continued to hit her as she called emergency dispatchers. The woman was able to escape the home as police arrived.
Childers ignored police commands to emerge from the house. A short time later, Childers surrendered but not without a small fight.
Childers was handcuffed and booked into the Fourth Avenue Jail.
His mother is expected to be OK.

Disparaging comments made in person and on Facebook may have led a woman to stab her brother's teenage girlfriend eight times on Valentine's Day at her Southwest Side home, a family member said.
Erika Bedolla, 26, is charged with attempted murder in the stabbing of the 17-year-old, a Kelly High School student.
Before being ordered held on $900,000 bail, Bedolla hung her head as Cook County prosecutors offered details in court Saturday of the violent argument they say led the petite woman to stab the teenager at the Bedolla's home in the 4200 block of South Fairfield.
Bedolla's brother saw it happen and called the police, who got there in time to see her still holding a "lethal cutting instrument," according to her arrest warrant.
Bedolla didn't get along with the teenager, her sister, Marlene Bedolla, said Saturday.
The animosity had been building, she said, but she added, "I would have never known that she was going to do this, ever. I just know that she was a little bit different. But I never thought I was going to be in danger being with her. Never."
Marlene Bedolla, 20, said her parents let the teenage girl move in last year because of family problems she was experiencing.
But soon after, the teen, originally from Guatemala, began putting up Facebook wall posts targeting the family and Erika Bedolla specifically, Marlene Bedolla said.
"She was saying things like, 'These people have nothing on me,' " she said. "We all just thought: We're letting you live with us, and you shouldn't be saying that."
After being confronted about the Facebook postings, the teen deleted them but soon put up similar posts, Marlene Bedolla said — about Erika Bedolla's appearance, poking fun of her nose after surgery. A day later at a family dinner, the teen again criticized Erika Bedolla's appearance.
"She was bullied on Facebook," Marlene Bedolla said of her sister. "And she wasn't one to not confront someone."
The wounded girl was in critical condition Saturday at Mount Sinai Hospital with six stab wounds to the abdomen and two to the upper back, prosecutors said.

Three years ago, at age 62, Roger Kuecker of Denver started working out at the Cedar Falls Recreation Center. That's where he met trainer Ryan Downs.
When Downs opened his own gym, Next Level Extreme Fitness, Kuecker joined. However, he admits he had reservations about keeping up because of his age.
"My wife even thought I was too old. I kidded Ryan to have a body bag for me because I wasn't sure I'd come out alive," said Roger Kuecker.
Three years later, Roger Kuecker has stuck with it. He gets up before 4 a.m. every weekday for a 5 a.m. kickboxing or bootcamp class.
"His work ethic is insane. He's here even on the snowiest days. He's in Denver, so he's driving 20-30 minutes," said Ryan Downs.
Kuecker said people often comment on how fit he looks, but for him it's more about how he feels. He has more energy and feels decades younger. He even recently went skydiving!
"More like a 45, 40-year-old. He feels that way and he looks that way, too. He used to weigh about 220 pounds," said Downs.
Kuecker did lose weight, but then began building his weight back up in a healthy way as he gained more muscle. He said he wasn't sure he could do it, but he did, and so can you.
His advice to anyone else hoping to get fit in the new year is don't be afraid to take that first step.
"If you don't get out and do it once, you'll never do it," he said.
A self-proclaimed ice cream addict, the 65-year-old said it isn't easy but the results are worth it.
"You gotta do it. Nobody can do it for you. You won't lose weight by wishing it off," said Roger Kuecker.
Roger Kuecker hopes his fitness journey inspires someone else to take that first step in 2014.
Kuecker said keeping a food diary has really helped him keep on track with his fitness goals. Next Level Extreme Fitness has locations in Cedar Falls and Waverly with new sessions starting the beginning January 6th. A new location in Mason City is set to open January 20th.

Krashing Down Survivor: Episode 13
Episode 13: "Too Close For Comfort"
Episode 13 was pretty big transition episode heading into the finale on Sunday. There was plenty of stupidity, and with season 22 I've just come to expect that. Going into this episode we knew one thing it is either going to be Ashley or Grant getting the boot. However only one of them has common sense apparently.
How Do You Like Those Marbles Andrea?
Andrea participated on blindsiding Matty to redemption, the second time he was sent there. Andrea had one close ally in this game and she turned on him. Part of me does not blame her, heck I guess she still made it far. The majority of me however, plays to win the game. Andrea played a game with Ometepe where all she was, was a vote. She symbolized nothing more than numbers and would be cut on the first chance. It was pretty simple thinking, how she didn't understand that I don't know. Matty and Andrea dropped the ball. They could have attempted to turn this game around when they had the chance. The thing about the Zapatera's at the time is that they HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO VOTE WITH THEM. If they wanted to gain power in this game, you have to make a big move. This is what I like to call a million dollar move. Anyhow, Andrea arrived to redemption where she was laughed at, scorned by Matty, and forced to sleep on the ground. AWESOME guys! I could not stand Ralph all season, but when he made Andrea sleep on the sand it made me happy. They all treated Zapatera like trolls, and when the million dollar vote comes around I won't be upset if they get screwed because of that. If Mike or Matty get back in this game at the final 3 they have won it already. During the duel Ralph got off to a huge lead and it looked like Andrea was done. Fortunately for her the country boy could not keep it alive and she got the last position. Mike and Matty both advanced fairly easily. Mike, Matty, and Andrea will all make it to the finale, congrats to them. Now on to who will be joining them. Yet another dummy who not only deserves to be there, but deserves to be out of the game with their poor gameplay.
Dangerous Alliance's
Castaways always throw the term, "alliance" around on Survivor. Lets be straight with it, usually it's always an alliance of two. The rest are numbers to get the individual to the end. A power debate ensued this past week with Natalie and Rob or Natalie and Ashley. Who is she closest to? Look even though she may be leaning towards Rob, I hope the teenager has SOME common sense. I know that might just be asking a little too much for the competitors this season though. Ashley finally started to play the game it appeared some 34-35 days into it. She was shown planting ideas into the younger Natalie's head about how they have to stay strong and vote off Grant. After the vote they would hope for the redemption competitor to return to the game, and then use their vote to blindside Rob. I get it, it's a possible move that may win you a million dollars. Chances of that working? MINIMAL. The play is right for this time in the game, but they had so many other chances. Rob should not have made it passed day 25-28ish if this game was played right. However with this Ashley put herself on the chopping block. Rob knows when people are schemers he's a smart guy. However with a HUGE twist Ashley made her play of the season by winning a balancing puzzle immunity. This put Grant as the odd guy out. However Grant didn't see it that way. According to Grant, "when I shake Rob's hand I know he's someone I can trust." COME ON. Have you not seen, Survivor Marquesas, Survivor All-Stars, Survivor Heroes Vs. Villains? What tribe was Boston Rob on in that last season? VILLAINS. There is a reason Granty boy! Grant had to make a move, he had to know he was going to be cast off. Why would Rob not want to vote out his biggest physical threat near the end of the game? Horrible game foundation, Grant should have won this season outright. He had a power position under the guy making all the moves. The best way to play Survivor is to be a great physical player under a great mastermind. Let the mastermind do the dirty work and cut him when he isn't necessary any longer. Grant you failed at this. As expected he was voted off and Ashley for once decided to play Survivor. I guess I cannot say she's worthless anymore. Last season we saw Fabio put together a famous run at the end of the game. Can somebody else do it? With the redemption twist we have a whopping eight competitors going into the finale. Rob is the pick everyone will make but I think different. I sense a bitter jury, and I suspect a Survivor travesty. Matty the guy who was voted out not once, but twice will win the game. Will I be right? Is this destiny? Can Grant use his physical presence to eliminate the feel good stories? We will see Sunday!
Player Of The Week: Ashley Underwood
Player Of The Week Standings:
1. Rob – 5 Wins
2. Grant – 2 Wins
3. Matty – 1 Win
4. Natalie – 1 Win
5. Ashley – 1 Win
6. Julie – 1 Win (Eliminated)
7. Russell – 1 Win (Eliminated)

Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually add the 1-1/3 cups extra-fine sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until stiff peaks form (tips stand straight).
2. Sprinkle orange peel over beaten egg whites. Sift about one-fourth of the flour over beaten egg whites; fold in gently. Repeat, folding in the remaining flour by fourths. Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. Gently cut through batter to remove any large air pockets.
3. Bake on the lowest rack in a 350 degrees oven about 40 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. Immediately invert cake (leave in pan); cool thoroughly. Loosen sides of cake from pan; remove cake.
