MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Nick Saban and Brian Kelly dropped strong hints Saturday they would be coaching at Alabama and Notre Dame beyond Monday night's Bowl Championship Series title game.
It's understandable the men leading the top two college football teams into the sport's top game would be considered candidates for several NFL vacancies.
"I don't have any unfinished business in the NFL," Saban said at Saturday's media day at Sun Life Stadium. "It's not even something I want to do."
Saban went 15-17 in two mostly woeful seasons with the Miami Dolphins before taking the Alabama job in 2007 — one of the great career moves in coaching history.
Kelly, who has led the Irish to the title game in his third season at Notre Dame, tried to deflect the NFL rumors.
"It's flattering if there is interest, which I don't know that there is," he said. "But this is such a secondary topic for me right now."
He added, "I think from my perspective I've got the best job in the country, NFL, college, high school, whatever."
Of course, you never say never with these guys. In December 2006, Saban adamantly denied he was leaving the NFL for Tuscaloosa.
"I'm not going to be the Alabama coach," he said less than two weeks before becoming Alabama's coach.
This time, though, Saban might be true to his word. After his misadventures in the NFL, there seems no earthly good reason why he should return to the pros.
"I want to be a college coach," Saban said. "I'm not looking for new challenges."
And Nick
While Saban may seem uptight at times, he said he relaxes in the off-season by running a pickup basketball league. Saban, naturally, is the commissioner.
"I pick the teams, so I have the best players," he said. "I also pick the guys who guard me."
It should not come as a surprise to know Saban is also the director of officiating.
"Every now and then I call a foul on myself," he said.
Tweet count
Remember when a stadium scoreboard provided only the score and kept the game time with an hour-hand clock?
Times have changed. During Saturday's media day, the jumbo video board at Sun Life Stadium was keeping real-time count of the number of "tweets" the schools were receiving.
Before taking a seat at his podium at media day, Notre Dame defensive end Kapron Lewis-Moore snapped a picture of his name plate.
He wanted a keepsake to remind him of his team's incredible 12-0 journey.
"It's basically how far I've personally come," he said. "It's been a long season, now we're here. I just wanted to enjoy the moment and have fun with it."
Lewis-Moore's reaction when he walked into Sun Life Stadium: "Man, that's orange," he said.
History lesson
Alabama and Notre Dame, two of college football's greatest programs, are meeting for only the seventh time.
Isn't it terrific to be a part of something so historically significant?
"I don't know anything about this matchup," Alabama quarterback AJ McCarron said. "I was never an Alabama fan growing up, so I can't answer that. I couldn't tell you one bit."
Monday's game between Notre Dame and Alabama is arguably the most anticipated game in BCS title history. Fans from both schools have overrun South Florida. The Miami Herald reported that Notre Dame boosters have arranged for about 85 buses to transport fans in from as far away as Boca Raton. StubHub.com, a top ticket reselling site, reports the average BCS ticket was going for $1,800 at midweek, up from $1,200 for the last two title games.

HER2 and Topo II Status Affects Response to Anthracycline Chemo
A new study suggests that anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens should be used to treat only HER2-positive breast cancers.
Scientists Report on New Breast Cancer Treatments
A number of studies are looking at new ways to treat breast cancer, including testing the effectiveness of new compounds and new uses for current medicines.
Zometa Seems to Improve Response to Chemotherapy
Research suggests that Zometa, a medicine used to strengthen bones, may slow breast cancer growth.
New Chemo Meds Improve Survival for Women with Advanced-Stage Disease
Newer chemotherapy medicines and regimens, as well as targeted therapy medicines, are helping women with advanced-stage breast cancer live longer.
Xeloda and Avastin Combo Better Than Xeloda Alone for Metastatic Disease
The combination of Xeloda (chemical name: capecitabine) and Avastin (chemical name: bevacizumab) has been shown to stop metastatic breast cancer from growing longer than Xeloda alone.
Cancers Resistant to Anthracyclines May Respond to Taxotere-Xeloda Combo
A new study suggests that breast cancer that is resistant to an anthracycline may respond to a combination of two other chemotherapies, Taxotere (chemical name: docetaxel) and Xeloda (chemical name: capecitabine).
Zometa During and After Chemo Helps Keep Bones Strong
A small study shows that Zometa (chemical name: zoledronic acid) given during and after chemotherapy for early-stage breast cancer maintained bone health in pre-menopausal women.
Actonel Boosts Bone Health After Chemo
Actonel (chemical name: risendronate), a bone-strengthening medicine, can improve bone health after chemotherapy for breast cancer. Actonel can also lessen the bone weakening that sometimes happens when hormonal therapy is used after chemotherapy.
Evista Reduces Risk of Hormone-Receptor-Positive Cancers in Postmenopausal Women
Results of the RUTH (Raloxifene Use for The Heart) study reinforce earlier research showing that Evista (chemical name: raloxifene) can reduce breast cancer risk in post-menopausal women.
Metformin Seems to Enhance Power of Chemotherapy
Women who were taking the medicine metformin to treat diabetes were more likely to respond to breast cancer chemotherapy before surgery than diabetic women not taking metformin.

Hidden Jewel in Staten Island – I was referred to the restaurant by the Hilton Hotel while in search of a location for a baby shower. I went ahead of time to see the location and try the food. I was very impressed by the decor, very classy and the cabaret player added to the great ambiance.
The service was great! I saw an entree that was only on the party menu and I ordered it and they made it for me.
Everything was great. We decided to have our party of 30+ in the Wine room and chose to have it for brunch.
The attention was superb, the food was tasty and taking care of the bill was easy. A lot of attention to detail. Everyone enjoyed the party and have had people ask us about throwing their parties there as well. Would definitely return.
BTW, We live in Edgewater, NJ. Staten Island is one of the last places on our list to go out to dine.
We have went out of our way to go there, and it is definitley worth it. Parking is always available (Free Parking)

I had read Mary's short stories before hearing her speak at several writers' conferences. Then, one day about 13 years ago, we met and struck up a friendship. She admired my youth (I was about 48 at the time), and she, who was about 80 years old at the time, said she wished she were younger so she could have more years to write. We talked at length at the conference, and I asked if I could come and visit her. She said please do.
A few months passed, and we set a date. My friend Suzanne Cunningham and I headed to Marion about five hours away and literally drove to a rural section of the Black Belt where sat Mary's ancestral home, a white frame, two-story house that her father had built. Its antique walls were lined with colorful art and many books on multiple shelves.
I am not sure there were peas in the fields near her home, but her house sat in the middle of several cultivated plots of farmland. I had a feeling of familiarity, and it was probably because the environment of the Black Belt area is so well described in all of her stories I had read.
Mary greeted us and led us to her kitchen table where we enjoyed a light lunch. As we ate, we looked out the windows into her grassy yard. She told us about leasing the farmland, a yard sale her church was planning, and about her son Kirksey, who lived nearby with his wife and two daughters. I was a new grandmother myself and identified with her glow as she talked about the two girls.
Mary was a delicate, dark-haired woman with an aristocratic, Southern accent. She had a humble, yet sophisticated personality. After we ate and listened to her describe how she accumulated her artwork, we moved to the front porch and talked about writing. I asked her why she poured so many hours into polishing her stories, as she was known for spending months on each story. "To achieve art," she said, dropping the "r" as if the word was "ot." "To achieve art."
Indeed Mary's stories are artistic. In her first book, "Tongues of Flame," she wrote a short story of the same name. In it, she described Dovey Goodwin, a typical Southern church woman who had a burning passion for a neighbor man and for her church. It is also a story of Dovey's desire to save the man from hell, of her church's fiery preacher and of how a fire damaged the church building wall – a fire caused by the neighbor man who was bad to drink too much alcohol. Here is an excerpt describing how Dovey felt after the fire: "… she felt she had never been through such a night in her life. Her mind still blazed out of control, and there was no one to put it out for her." The story is typical of Mary's work, words infused with layers of meaning.
She told Suzanne and me about giving up her life of writing for several years not only to raise her son but also to prepare for the life of writing she wanted to embrace.
"During those years, I studied," she said.
Because of outstanding writing skills, officials from some place in the Soviet Union once invited Mary there to speak. She had an especially strong following of readers there. It seems that the Soviet citizens who loved literature appreciated Mary's ability to describe to the human connections of individuals living within a community.
Indeed, Mary loved the Black Belt region, in spite of its many economic and racial problems. The area was her late husband's home, and she had loved him and their life together. Mary wrote what she knew, and she preserved stories typical of the lives of her neighbors and family members. Thanks to her, their lifestyles will be preserved for coming generations of fans.
Before Suzanne and I left Mary's home, she said how lucky we were to have each other as friends. "I had a close friend, too," she told us, "and we did so many things together before she died."
Mary's popularity at writing conferences grew, but her health declined through the years. There came a time when she was unable to circulate among those of us attending her sessions, as things changed to the point that she would be ushered in and out of the events in order to save her energy.
Mary died on Tuesday, May 14. Alabama lost a great writer. Her friends lost a great mentor. Those of us who appreciate Alabama literature lost a significant contributor to this state's literary jewels.
For those who may not have read her works, they can likely be found in local libraries. Besides "Tongues of Flame" (1986), Mary wrote "It Wasn't All Dancing and Other Stories" (2002) and "Fanning the Sparks: A Memoir" (2009). Her awards include a PEN/Hemingway Award form PEN New England writing group and an Alabama Author Award from the Alabama Library Association (ALA), both in 1987. In 1991, she won a Lillian Smith Book Award from the Southern Regional Council. She received the Harper Lee Award from the Alabama Writers Forum and another ALA award, both in 2002; and, in 2003, The Fellowship of Southern Writers presented her with the Hillsdale Fiction Award in 2003.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I personalized this by changing the font color to a soft blue and the Mr and Mrs stayed white. The blue is very sutle but brought individuality to the card. I was pleased to see there was font choices. I chose rounded edges and loved the elegant look. The paper finish was pearl which gave the cards a soft shimmer. Loved my engagement party invitations so much!"
"I spent so much time on the internet looking for the "perfect" engagement invitation for my son and future daughter-in-law's fall engagement party. I didn't want typical fall colors and wanted to find a certain look of "blue." I also preferred a casual elegance. This invite was perfect! When they arrived, they were even more gorgeous than online (and they looked beautiful online!) The overall quality was outstanding! Looking back, I'm so glad I did take the time to look and explore other sites which led me to finding Wedding Paper Divas! Who knew I could get so excited over an invitation!"
"I ordered these for a friends engagement party and had them put the "they're tying the knot" in the sea glass color from the customer color chart and they look FANTASTIC against the grey card we selected. Very happy with the purchase and shipping was very fast."
"We ordered these invitations for our engagement party. I loved the simple elegance of "We're Engaged" in cursive. We put our names in a script font as well and the designers helped us pick a font that was close to the font "We're Engaged" is written in. We ordered them in blue since that is one of our wedding colors and they turned out fabulously! We got so many compliments on these invitations!"
"I ordered this as my engagement invites and the process was seamless. I had looked at many other sites as well, but I noticed that Wedding Paper Divas had the most selections to chose from and easy to browse through. The paper quality was excellent and the color matched what was shown on my computer. And above all, everyone I had any sort of communication with has been soo nice, professional and competent!! I am in the process of ordering more stuff from them!!"

Parent-child programs to teach purity
By Nissa LaPoint
All programs below are held at Bonfils Hall, 1305 S. Monroe St., Denver
Cost: $20 per family per program
Mothers & Daughters
Fathers & Sons
Today's teenagers are bombarded with influences compromising their purity and sense of modesty. Whether it's social media, texting, peer pressure or the Internet, sexual content is easily presented to teens.
"It enters the home even though parents are really careful about what kids are watching on TV," said Celeste Thomas, a lay consecrated virgin, who has led purity programs for teenagers since 1988.
Due to an ongoing demand, Thomas is bringing a series of mother-daughter and father-son purity programs back to Denver this year to inform teens about the truth of their sexuality and an understanding of true love.
The half-day talks are tailored for girls from 9 to 12 years old and from 13 to 16 years old. Thomas will hold a program in February for each age group with Kathleen Fleming, a mother of six children who works for the Couple to Couple League teaching natural family planning, and Madeleine Paolucci, a mother of eight.
The speakers will address changes in the female body, proper nutrition and hygiene as well as modesty, use of social media and dating for the older teenagers.
Thomas will conclude each program with a one-hour presentation on purity and living a virtuous life, she said. She also shares the life story of St. Maria Goretti, an 11-year-old martyr who fought an attempted rape and was subsequently stabbed to death.
"This is a presentation about virtue and that God created bodies differently," Thomas said. "I bring it from a very realistic perspective."
Thomas said she makes the presentations engaging and fun and that many parents and teens—although at first unwilling to attend—are thankful for the program.
"This is just a springboard," Thomas said. "It's a great way to open up a discussion with a child that may be less likely to ask a question or initiate a conversation."
The program was helpful for Traci Boh of St. Mary Parish in Littleton and her 14-year-old daughter, Jenna, Boh said.
"I'll probably take my daughter again this spring because it's an ongoing battle," Boh said about teaching purity. "I think it's helpful to have someone else talk to your kids saying things you're saying but in different way."
Statistically, the number of sexually active teens has been on a steady decline since 1991, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Yet the pervasiveness of pornography is a constant threat to purity for growing boys, Thomas said.
She will host a program for boys between 10 and 14 years old this March. Jerry Fleming, Kathleen Fleming's husband, will talk about bodily changes during puberty and the meaning of true love, she said. Seminarians will also attend as guest speakers, she said.
"So many burdens in our world are related to the misuse and abuse (of sexuality)," Thomas said. Her programs seek to enlighten youths how "to be free and to be holy as a male or female in the image of God."
"This is just an attempt to (present) the truth," she said.

- Development of the First Force-Controlled Robot for Otoneurosurgery (2003)
- Objective: In some surgical specialties, e.g. orthopedics, robots are already used in the operating room for bony milling work. Oto- and otoneurosurgery may also greatly benefit by robotic enhanced precision. Study Design: Experimental study on robotic milling on oak wood and human temporal bone specimen. Methods: A standard industrial robot with a 6 degrees-of-freedom serial kinematics was used with force feedback to proportionally control the robot speed. Different milling modes and characteristic path parameters were evaluated to generate milling paths based on CAD geometry data of a cochlear implant and an implantable hearing system. Results: The best suited strategy proofed to be the spiral horizontal milling mode with the burr held perpendicularly to the temporal bone surface. In order to avoid high grooves, the distance in between paths should equal half the radius of the cutting burr head. Due to the vibration of the robot's own motors, a rather high oscillation of the standard deviation of forces was encountered. This oscillation dropped drastically to nearly 0 N, when the burr head reached contact with the dura mater due to its damping characteristics. The cutting burr could be moved a long time on the dura without damaging it, because of its rather blunt head. The robot moved the burr very smoothly according to the encountered resistances. Conclusion: This is the first development of an functioning robotic milling procedure for otoneurosurgery with force-based speed control. It is planned to implement ultrasound-based local navigation and to perform robotic mastoidectomy.

- Relationship between Alternating omega-Automata and Symbolically Represented Nondeterministic omega-Automata (2005)
- There is a well known relationship between alternating automata on finite words and symbolically represented nondeterministic automata on finite words. This relationship is of practical relevance because it allows to combine the advantages of alternating and symbolically represented nondeterministic automata on finite words. However, for infinite words the situation is unclear. Therefore, this work investigates the relationship between alternating omega-automata and symbolically represented nondeterministic omega-automata. Thereby, we identify classes of alternating omega-automata that are as expressive as safety, liveness and deterministic prefix automata, respectively. Moreover, some very simple symbolic nondeterminisation procedures are developed for the classes corresponding to safety and liveness properties.
- Simple Loose Ownership Domains (2006)
- Ownership Domains generalize ownership types. They support programming patterns like iterators that are not possible with ordinary ownership types. However, they are still too restrictive for cases in which an object X wants to access the public domains of an arbitrary number of other objects, which often happens in observer scenarios. To overcome this restriction, we developed so-called loose domains which abstract over several precise domains. That is, similar to the relation between supertypes and subtypes we have a relation between loose and precise domains. In addition, we simplified ownership domains by reducing the number of domains per object to two and hard-wiring the access permissions between domains. We formalized the resulting type system for an OO core language and proved type soundness and a fundamental accessibility property.
- Formalisation of the UML Profile for SDL - A Case Study (2006)
- With the UML 2.0 standard, the Unified Modeling Language took a big step towards SDL, incorporating many features of the language. SDL is a mature and complete language with formal semantics. The Z.109 standard defines a UML Profile for SDL, mapping UML constructs to corresponding counterparts in SDL, giving them a precise semantics. In this report, we present a case study for the formalisation of the Z.109 standard. The formal definition makes the mapping precise and can be used to derive tool support.
- Adding Position Structures to Katja (2005)
- This document introduces the extension of Katja to support position structures and explains the subtleties of their application as well as the design decisions made and problems solved with respect to their implementation. The Katja system was first introduced by Jan Schäfer in the context of his project work and is based on the MAX system developed by Arnd Poetzsch-Heffter.
- Redesign and Enhancement of the Katja System (2006)
- Katja is a tool generating order-sorted recursive data types as well as position types for Java, from specifications using an enhanced ML like notation. Katja's main features are its conciseness of specifications, the rich interface provided by the generated code and the Java atypical immutability of types. After several stages of extending and maintaining the Katja project, it became apparent many changes had to be done. The original design of Katja wasn't prepared for the introduction of several backends, the introduction of position sorts and constant feature enhancements and bug fixes. By supplying this report Katja reaches release status for the first time.
- SDL Profiles - Definition and Formal Extraction (2006)
- Over a period of 30 years, ITU-T's Specification and Description Language (SDL) has matured to a sophisticated formal modelling language for distributed systems and communication protocols. The language definition of SDL-2000, the latest version of SDL, is complex and difficult to maintain. Full tool support for SDL is costly to implement. Therefore, only subsets of SDL are currently supported by tools. These SDL subsets - called SDL profiles - already cover a wide range of systems, and are often suffcient in practice. In this report, we present our approach for extracting the formal semantics for SDL profiles from the complete SDL semantics. We then formalise the approach, present our SDL-profile tool, and report on our experiences.
- Phishing in the Wireless: Implementation and Analysis (2006)
- Web-based authentication is a popular mechanism implemented by Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) because it allows a simple registration and authentication of customers, while avoiding the high resource requirements of the new IEEE 802.11i security standard and the backward compatibility issues of legacy devices. In this work we demonstrate two different and novel attacks against web-based authentication. One attack exploits operational anomalies of low- and middle-priced devices in order to hijack wireless clients, while the other exploits an already known vulnerability within wired-networks, which in dynamic wireless environments turns out to be even harder to detect and protect against.

Kristen Bell Admits to Using a Body DoubleHallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity2 days ago
Kristen Bell may be one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood but even she calls for backup sometimes. "I have definitely and happily used a body double," the new mama says in the May issue of Allure magazine, where she appears in a stripped down photo shoot. "It's a very nice thing to be able to rely on." [Related: The 13 Prettiest Date-Night Hairstyles]
As for why the 33-year-old chose now to shirk her stand-in and pose in the buff, she admits, "I talk a big game about being comfortable no matter my size. I wanted to put my money where my mouth was."

Neil Patrick Harris vs. 'Hedwig' Fan: What Really Happened?Hallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity3 days ago
Neil Patrick Harris made headlines over the weekend when he cursed at a fan in the audience during his Broadway performance of "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," but now the 40-year-old is setting the record straight. NPH had some bad words for a female theatergoer who yelled out mid-performance, "I love you, Neil." Reports claimed that the star shot back, "I'm doing something up here, mother------."
But the "How I Met Your Mother" star took to Twitter to address the reports that took the response out of context. "It seems my Hedwig improvs are making news, but one should have the full story/context," he wrote.
As it turns out, the musical, about a transgender German punk rocker, is highly improvisational and actually embraces audience interaction. A rep for the actor told Gossip Cop, "The response to the fan yelling was actually done in character — Neil as Hedwig, not as though Neil stopped the show to respond out of character."
The '90s Are Back! Hollywood Rocks the Babydoll DressHallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity6 days ago
Few things say the '90s like the babydoll dress, and it's back and bigger than ever! Some of Hollywood's hottest stars have been spotted sporting the style. Lana Del Rey rocked out on stage at Coachella in a bright orange-and-pink babydoll dress, while Lea Michele wore one in pale pink at the Lacoste party. Chrissy Teigen posed on red carpet at the MTV Movie Awards in her Ulyana Sergeenko babydoll. Also revisiting the '90s fashion statement in 2014: Sienna Miller, Taylor Swift, and Jessica Alba!
"The Insider" correspondent Keltie Knight caught up with celebrity stylist Daniel Musto, who dished about why this trend is being styled in its revival mode. "In the '90s, it was seen in solid colors, super innocent on Courtney Love with some clunky Doc Martens," Daniel says. "But now you're seeing florals, plaids, and stripes with heels. And heels actually make it better, because it's all about the leg."

See Lady Gaga's Versace Ad Without PhotoshopHallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity7 days ago
Late last year, Lady Gaga was announced as the new face of Versace's spring/summer 2014 campaign, and in the images, the "Do What U Want" singer looked absolutely flawless.
But now, images of the untouched ads have surfaced online, and while Mama Monster still looks beautiful, the before shots are completely different than the digitally altered snapshots. The leaked pics feature the singer wearing little to no makeup and, sporting bruises on her legs, and her hair (while still blond) is a much darker shade than it appears to be in the completed campaign.
But this isn't the only controversy Gaga's faced this week. Check out the video to hear about the drama, and be sure to tune into "The Insider" on TV tonight for the latest in entertainment news.
Kelly Osbourne on Her Purple 'Do: 'My Color Has Become Me'Hallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity8 days ago
Kelly Osbourne credits her famous lavender locks for helping amp up her self-confidence. "Basically my color has become me," she told People magazine. "The first time I dyed it and looked in the mirror, I saw myself and I felt like me."
And we shouldn't expect Kelly to opt for a more natural look anytime soon. "I'll never be a natural girl," she explained. "I'll never be normal or simple. The most insulting thing someone said to me was to call me 'beige.'"
Kelly has rocked the lilac look for four years now and has proven to be quite the hair trailblazer, paving the way for stars like Nicole Richie and Ireland Baldwin who've recently given the purple 'do a whirl. And the TV personality is 100 percent supportive of others following in her footsteps.
"They don't get that I'm not that kind of girl that will sit there and be like, 'You have the same hair as me,'" she dished. "I don't own this color; it's just become a part of me."
Taylor Swift Surprises Fan at Bridal ShowerHallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity9 days ago
"It's a love story," as the Taylor Swift hopped on a flight from New York to Columbus, Ohio, to surprise her superfan, Gena Gabrielle, at her bridal shower on Sunday. The 24-year-old singer had promised the bride-to-be, whom she first got to know at a meet-and-greet in 2007, that she would attend the party, because she isn't going to be able to attend her wedding in May.
But Gena was still surprised when the superstar actually walked through the doors. "I had no idea it was going to happen," Gena told "Today." "[Taylor] said she planned it with her management and her mom. She said it was all worth it because my face was 'priceless.'"
The "Speak Now" singer posed for pics with the lady of the hour and her guests and after arriving with a basket chockfull of kitchen goodies that included a KitchenAid stand mixer and Le Creuset pots. Taylor even added a personal touch with a hand-painted piece of art, a batch of homemade chocolate chip cookies, and a handwritten recipe!
"I will never forget she did this for me," Gena told "Today." "She is truly an incredible, special person."
Vanessa Hudgens Flies High With Aerial WorkoutHallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity14 days ago
Vanessa Hudgens is soaring high in the sky! The 25-year-old is the latest celeb to try out the aerial workout trend, and she looks like a pro. The brunette beauty posted a video of her silk rope skills to Instagram on Tuesday with the caption "You spin me right round baby right round." But this wasn't her first time flying high. The former Disney darling recently shared an Instagram pic of herself hanging from the silks, writing, "Tadaaa."
Vanessa isn't the only Hollywood star to embrace the aerial craze. Pink was one of the first celebs to master the workout. In 2010 the singer soared above the audience at the Grammy Awards during her performance of "Glitter in the Air," and in 2014 she wowed again, showing off her aerial skills while singing "Try" at the award show.
[Related Link: High-Flying Celeb Social Snaps]
In January Kourtney and Khloé Kardashian took a spin on the silk ropes, and "Pretty Little Liars" star Troian Bellisario is also an avid fan of the trend.
Jennifer Lawrence Is Still Sometimes a BridesmaidHallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity16 days ago
The latest issue of Martha Stewart Weddings features one of Hollywood's biggest stars, but she isn't the girl all dressed in white. Jennifer Lawrence took a break from her bustling film schedule to serve as one of 11 bridesmaids at the wedding of her brother, Blaine Lawrence, to Carson Massler.
The ceremony took place back in October 2013 in J.Law's home state of Kentucky and while she donned an ivory, floor-length, strapless dress with a heart-shaped neckline from J.Crew, her sister-in-law stunned in a lace gown by Monique Lhuillier.
While the magazine has no mention of whether or not tripped going down the aisle, the day didn't go off without a hitch. "It was crazy, epic, and very wet," Carson explained of her special day. "It set a state record for the third-highest rainfall ever! … All the things you worry about on your big day happened to us. But that's what we loved about it: It was real."

How the Stars of 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' Get Into Superhero ShapeHallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity19 days ago
"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" hit theaters on Friday, and fans were anxious to see Chris Evans's hot body on the big screen. But how did the Hollywood hunk get fit for the role of a superhero? "The Insider" correspondent Keltie Knight sat down with the 32-year-old at the film's junket, and he dished about getting in tip-top shape. "I'm very skinny naturally. I'm kind of a little bony kid, so getting big is tough, you know. It's hard to keep the weight on," he revealed. "The second you stop filming, you pull the plug, and I don't even think about the gym for months. It's a really daunting task gearing back up, We start 'Avengers' in a month, so that's what I've been doing."
Olivia Newton-John Slips Into Black Leather Pants 36 Years After 'Grease'Hallie Stephens at Yahoo Celebrity21 days ago
Back in 1978, Olivia Newton-John's black leather pants in the carnival scene at the end of "Grease" put her on the map. Now, 36 year later, she's proving she's still got it!
The 65-year-old Aussie slipped into a similar pair of slacks on Wednesday in Las Vegas as she rode around in the same Ford Mercury Cadillac from the famous drag-racing scene and marked the beginning of her 45-show residency at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino. She was even presented with a key to the Las Vegas Strip.
And while she looked hotter than ever, these pants aren't the same ones she sported in the hit musical. Back in 2012 she told Fox News that she keeps the original pair in the closet and she plans to auction them off one day for her cancer and wellness center.

|ESPNsoccernet: Euro 2012
The Greek Football Federation have extended the contract of national team coach Fernando Santos by two years to coincide with the 2014 World Cup.
Santos, 57, was previously contracted until the end of the EURO 2012 campaign and has agreed terms on a deal that will offer security for the next two years.
The Portuguese manager replaced EURO 2004-winning coach Otto Rehhagel after the 2010 World Cup and has reinvigorated an ailing side.
The Greeks are currently unbeaten in 16 international games and qualified for EURO 2012 by finishing at the head of their qualifying group.
Greece were drawn in Group A for this summer's tournament, alongside Poland, Russia and Czech Republic.

The Kansas City Star (Missouri) - St. Louis-Chicago high-speed rail work to begin in September
Track upgrades needed to increase passenger train speeds and cut travel time between St. Louis and Chicago will begin in early September, Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn announced Tuesday.
Funded by federal stimulus dollars, the $98 million project will include new rails and concrete ties along 90 miles of Union Pacific track from just north of Alton to just south of Springfield, and another segment just north of Springfield to south of Lincoln. The work could be completed by year's end, state officials said.
Quinn said the project would put an estimated 900 people to work and would be a major step toward faster Amtrak service between St. Louis and Chicago.
President Obama's administration announced in January that Illinois would get $1.8 billion for high-speed passenger rail projects through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The allocation included $1.1 billion for the St. Louis-Chicago corridor. [7/21/10]

Federal stimulus money has funded a plan in San Jose to buy and rehab foreclosed properties. The city has purchased 12 homes so far and the first buyers are finally moving in.
There are two grants totaling $30 million. The immediate impact is a much needed boost to the construction industry.
'With the program, we have 12 homes right now, about five under construction so we are able to get a lot of folks back to work,' says Don Gross, a city building rehab inspector.
Over the next three years, the neighborhood stabilization program hopes to rehab 200 foreclosed properties in four target zip codes. [7/23/10]
The Press-Telegram (California) - Youth program has funding for summer positions
Merchants and business owners needing some summer help can still take advantage of the Pacific Gateway Workforce Investment Network's Summer Youth Employment Training Program.
The network has funding to fill an additional 400 positions this summer.
The Summer Youth Employment program is made possible through American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds and provides salaries and workers' comp for 1,500 eligible youth living in the Network's service areas of Lomita, Long Beach, Signal Hill and Torrance. [7/21/10]
The Daily Sentinel (Ohio) - ODOT updates 'Capital Corridor' project
Since breaking ground in October, workers have logged more than 70,000 hours building the new 8.5-mile realignment of U.S. 33 at Nelsonville. The project, funded by the federal stimulus program, has employed 250 Ohio workers.
Phase II and III of the U.S. 33 Nelsonville Bypass have been funded from American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, allowing the project to be completed nearly six years ahead of Ohio Department of Transportation's construction schedule. It will likely be completed and open to traffic in 2013.
"This historic investment has been decades in the making," said ODOT District 10 Deputy Director, Karen Pawloski. "Not only is this project going to make travel safer for motorists, but has already put more than two hundred fifty Ohioans to work in only nine months." [7/22/10]
The Durango Herald (Colorado) - Corps puts kids, veterans to work
The Southwest Conservation Corps has doubled its workload as a result of a $4.2 million windfall from the stimulus package.
Chris Nesset, director of the Corps' Durango office, called the stimulus money a 'boon' to the nonprofit. She said the group has hired 219 people this summer as of Thursday.
…the corps puts people 12 to 30 years old to work on preservation and conservation projects across the Four Corners. [7/3/10]

During my trip to Mexico, I got very inspired by the Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) art I saw. I drew this in the resort lobby on a rainy afternoon. I thought it would be funny to do a hotrod bandito. I may have to turn this into a finished piece at some point in time. The guys working at the resort seemed to like it and said it was "¡Mas Macho!".

Produced by: Gary Hughes / Mixed by: Tommy Newton
Released: December 10 / Website
Closest Relative:
There are not many bands in this scene that can get to album number seven these days. And as a band, Ten do have their detractors. But those that haven't given the band a chance or have failed to give the songs the time they deserve may just be missing out on some classic melodic rock.
I loved the band's debut and then had a period of time when I wasn't for or against the band. Their Spellbound album caught my attention early on and I have been a devoted fan ever since. Their last album matched the heavy rock of Spellbound with the more melodic tone of their debut. Far Beyond The World is different again.
After seven albums' it is also harder to nail which release is exactly their best. That job is made easier with Far Beyond The World, as we have an album that takes in the best power riffs the band offers, with a more commercial and hook friendly list of songs and easily the best sounding Ten album to date, thanks to the additional mixing of Tommy Newton.
Ten have moved through a few different sounds, while retaining the trademark sound of Gary Hughes' vocals and Vinny Burns' guitar playing. This album takes from the debut, from Name Of The Rose, from Babylon and from Gary's own solo album.
Collectively, I rank this album up there with the band's best ever, as I really like the songs and style the guys have chosen this time around.
Importantly, as I have said - there is something for everyone, but simply put, it is packed with great hooks and melodies. This album rocks, but it's not heavy. This album is more about songs and melodies and I like that a lot.
The first sing that things are a little different on Far Beyond The World is the first song Glimmer Of Evil. Gone is the long winded intro, rather a subtler and more laid back intro that heads straight into the song, even if the vocals still take a little while to appear. When they do, it's immediate to the listener that this is the sharpest sounding Ten album to date, with a great tone set, especially with the rhythm section.
The song features a great guitar riff, which is intense without being dominant and the chorus and vocals are both fairly subdued. I especially like the changing drum beat through the song.
The guitar riff on Strange Land is a little heavier again, but the song itself is not. Gary's vocals are very smooth and the chorus is memorable, without being an anthem. Vinny shines with a great solo mid song.
High Tide caught my ear immediately. This is the heaviest song of the album and comes straight out of the Ozzy Osbourne / Zakk Wylde song book. The guitar riff is awesome and the beat a little more frantic. Still, Gary's vocals and the added harmony vocals keep it melodic and hook filled. A typical big Ten chorus is kept short and the song remains one for those fans of the Spellbound album.
Track 4 and it's time for a ballad, which one must admit, this band do particularly well. What About Me? is the first of two power ballads on the album and should keep all fans of Gary Hughes and Ten's ballads happy.
Next up, Last Of The Lovers gets heavy again, but Gary's vocals remain soft, but firm, leading a short verse into a strong bridge and an extended vocal lead chorus.
Another fabulous melodic rocker is Outlawed And Notorious. This is Ten doing what they do best - a hard hitting guitar driven riff-fest, overtaken come chorus time by a great wave of harmonies, all while maintaining the fist pumping tempo.
Scarlet And The Grey caught my attention especially. With some very strong lead vocals, the song's verse is again guitar dominated, only to recede to a big melodic anthem chorus, filled with layers of harmony vocals. A particularly strong melodic chorus.
A change in tempo sees a style that I haven't heard from ten previously. Heart Like A Lion is a moody keyboard / synth dominated track with a soft Journey style guitar riff. This very laid back and atmospheric track bursts to life with a much heavier chorus and back, again. It's a very strong tarck and breaks the pace of the album nicely. A track that probably wouldn't be out of place on a Gary Hughes solo album.
Time to rock again! Black Shadows sees the band rocking hard again, with Vinny playing his heart out over a rock track that still features a very melodic hook friendly lead vocal. Another strong chorus and another album high point.
Who Do You Want To Love? features another unusual keyboard sound, layered several times over into an anthem feel and combined with Vinny's guitar work to take it completely over the top. The verse hollows out again to leave the vocal and keyboards, then it's bang into a big melodic anthem chorus, straight out of the Ten handbook. A different track that breaks the mould, while retaining familiar elements of the band's sound. Very cool.
Far Beyond The World rounds out the album, finishing with a big sentimental and powerful power ballad.
Special mention to new member Paul Hodson (Hard Rain), who's keyboard playing on this album is major league. It's throughout every song, adding to the tapestry of the album, yet with Tommy's mixing of the album, it is perfectly placed.
|ESSENTIAL FOR: All fans of Ten and Gary Hughes and Vinny Burns. Fans of good melodic European style hard rock.

Sure, there are some great hooks, but listening to the songs, you have the feeling that they are drawn out much too long: after 2 or 3 minutes each of them gets a little boring. Also, I wasn't exactly amazed by Gary's voice - maybe it's just me, but it sounds weak and flat to my ears.
Rating: 94
This one was the first album (by Ten) I purchased. I have doubts as for this title. When I listened to this... Hummmnn... Once again Mr. Hughes and Mr. Burns did a great album! There is a climax, as for the sound, between the future and the space. It seems that we are at the sideral space with the flying discs etc...So far, It is the Ten's best album!
Rating: 95
The first time I played this I was a little unsure,but I can tell you that after a few plays it all comes together.Its a great album just like all of Tens previous efforts and perhaps the only difference is the production(which is slightly meaty).If you like your 80's rock like myself , you won't get much better than Ten.My favourite tracks would have to be'High Tide','Heart like a Lion' and 'Black Shadows' as I feel the rockers are much stronger than the ballads(and the ballads are good!!!).So to conclude my review I must insist that you buy this album and support Ten because they never fail to deliver the goods.

My God we're in the end of 2003 and only now I discovered TEN.
What a great musician Gary Hughes is.
This is by far one of the best cds I bought in my life.
The only down side is "Who do you want to love".
"Strange Land" is so good that it brings tears to my eyes!
Yes, it is a little bit comercial but WTF. We like it!

TEN – Far Beyond the World (2001, Now and Then/Frontiers Records)
I approached this album with more than a little trepidation. TEN have been my favourite melodic rock band ever since their second album – The Name of the Rose, and although initial reports promised a return to the sound of that release, there were a number of other factors that left a distinctly sour taste in my mouth: the absence of Don Airey, the mention of a turn to the sound of Gary Hughes' solo material, the lacklustre cover art, and the departure of co-founder and lead guitarist Vinny Burns. It's clear from the outset that drastic changes are taking place in the TEN camp. I'm glad to be able to say that, for the most part, I needn't have worried, although there are some notable exceptions which I shall detail below.
I should say firstly that the interior art was much, much better than the cover, and I would have preferred to have seen the double-page centre spread used on the front of the album.
'Glimmer of Evil' is a great opener with a memorable hookline and chorus. The mix has been vastly improved by Tommy Newton: the drums are crisp and sharp, and the rhythm section thunders along with a clarity we haven't really heard before. This track clicked with me straight away, and is sure to become a fan favourite.
'Strange Land' is a natural progression from 'Glimmer of Evil'. They share the same territory – catchy, driven anthems full of mood and desperation. A perfect pairing of songs.
'High Tide' kicks in with a sassy, aggressive guitar riff and it's clear we're back in Spellbound territory. The verse has similarities with 'Into the Pyramid of Light', but the chorus rises into an anthem that will sound intensely familiar to fans of TEN's past work.
'What About Me' is the first of two ballads on the album, and while (on the first listen) it doesn't reach the heights of tracks such as 'You're In My Heart' or 'Standing In Your Light', it has a wonderfully singable chorus that will stay with you. This manages to be commercial while just retaining the edge that gives TEN their own identity. Coming across as somewhat schmaltzy on the first spin, this song is a real grower once you're in the right mood.
'Last of the Lovers' opens up, and within the first few bars it's apparent that the song comes from the same mould as the title track of Spellbound or 'Barricade' from the band's last album. I found it difficult to appreciate the track on its own merits because of the similarity to those songs, which (let's face it) were already fairly derivative.
'Outlawed and Notorious' is what we've been waiting for. A frantic, galloping shred-fest in the style of 'Red'. The drum sound is particularly sharp and crisp on this track, and rhythm guitarist John Halliwell gets to let loose. It took me a while to identify why the chorus sounded familiar, but I finally realised that it sounds a little like a variation on the guitar-introduction to 'Dreams' from Bob Catley's first solo album. Vinny Burns' guitar playing on this track is brilliant, and makes you realise how much he contributes to the TEN sound, and therefore how much he's going to be missed.
'Scarlet and the Grey' is the opener on the Japanese release of the album, but I think it makes much more sense to have it in the middle of the album. It's an upbeat, sunny track rather than the epic, dark rocker I was expecting given the lyrical content. Once again, my only problem is that the chorus sounds derivative – this time it's 'Already Gone' from Vinny Burns' solo album I keep hearing. I was a little disappointed that the track wasn't more grandiose and pompous, and stuck to a standard structure, but nevertheless it's a strong number which is sure to delight the fans.
'Heart Like a Lion' shifts the pace of the album. As many reviewers have already mentioned, this could well be a Bob Catley song (which is no bad thing in my book!). Gary's singing in a low, deep register which some fans have criticised, but which I really like. It makes a nice contrast with the high pitched tones of the rest of the album, and allows the listener to appreciate the rich, velvetly texture of his voice in the lower octaves. The imagery, style, and delivery make this track stand out from the others, and offers a nice example of experimentation in an album which has played it comparatively safe until this point. One of the highlights.
'Black Shadows' is a classic TEN rocker, following a familiar structure. It does sound a little similar to the other songs on the album, but remains a solid track in its own right. It's a song that takes repeated listens to fully appreciate, surrounded as it is by so many other high quality offerings. The chorus, in particular, is very immediate.
And now the low point! 'Who Do You Want to Love' is, in my opinion, one of the worst songs TEN have recorded as a band. The cheesy, outdated keyboard sound that it opens with is positively cringeworthy, and the lyrics are clichéd and substandard for a writer of Gary's obvious talent. This should have been a Gary Hughes solo song – it doesn't belong on a TEN album. This is just what I was afraid of hearing! It doesn't work in the context of the surrounding songs, and the 80s production (which reminds me of Then and Now-era Asia) is jarring when compared with the harder, more modern sound of the rest of the CD.
As a huge fan of TEN's ballads, I found the closer – 'Far Beyond the World', ever-so slightly disappointing on its first spin. It may have simply been its grouping with 'Who Do You Want to Love' that coloured my listening, but I thought that it was in serious danger of crossing the line from commerciality to boy-band schmaltz. Nevertheless, subsequent listens reveals it as a good Gary Hughes ballad that lacks the extra special element that might put it in the same league as "Silent Rain" or "Standing In Your Light".
This is a very, very good album indeed. My only criticism is that it plays it just a little too safe for my liking. Babylon wavered between extremes, and was a work of great diversity, whereas the songs on Far Beyond the World arguably occupy quite similar territory. As a result, a few of tracks fail to become the standout songs they might be if included on an album of different material. The quality of the production, songwriting, and performance is very, very high, and were this coming from any other melodic rock band I would be very satisfied indeed. But this is TEN, and we've all come to expect something surprising from them. This album satisfies, but doesn't surprise.
Generally, this album is too commercial for my tastes – the structures a little too simple, the tracks a little too similar to previous works. I like to see bands stretching themselves more, whereas TEN seem to be treading water on this release. Another key problem is maintaining a distinction between Gary's simpler, laid-back solo material and the heavy yet melodic TEN material. The majority of the tracks here are distinctly TEN, although the last two sound rather awkward when placed with the other songs. What's missing are the qualities that made me fall in love with the band in the first place: the sense of experimentation, the storytelling, the epic and pompous side to their sound, the complex and mysterious lyrical content that communicated majesty while remaining tied to the emotive and the personal. My hunch is that Gary is purposely saving these qualities for use on his Once and Future King project, or for future Bob Catley material, which is a shame as that's what I was constantly wanting to hear on this album. The songs are all very strong, but two or three of them sound a little too polished and faceless, lacking the sense of sheer atmosphere that graced the songs on previous releases.
My lasting impression is that this is a very strong album that fans of the debut and Gary Hughes solo release will adore, but that somehow falls a short of the reach displayed previously. The album is certainly more consistent than Babylon, but lacks the epic, atmospheric qualities that drew fans like me to the band. Even so, it's a great piece of work, lyrically and musically, and I suspect that the commercial approach may well be a prelude to a progressive or un-commercial sound on the next album (which would make this album a shrewd, considered move on Gary's part). My concern is that some of the band's audience will feel excluded by such intense concentration on a single style. Nevertheless, Gary and company have fully achieved what they set out to do with this album, and it will find a place among the top 10 albums of the year.
BOTTOM LINE: A very worthy addition to the TEN back catalogue that targets fans of their debut and Gary Hughes' solo albums rather than fans of the band's epic and progressive sides.

Ten have let it all hang out here, and it shows. This is their best effort yet, by far. From the spine tingling "Glimmer Of Evil" which sounds like it came from a rocky movie.. (I get the chills when I hear it) to the heartwrenching ballads "What About Me?" and "Far Beyond The World" This cd has it all. The ballad "What About Me?" could be No. 1 on the charts anywhere in the world if it was advertised/marketed aggressively. The catchy melody and chorus of this song will be burned into your brain and you will find yourself singing it in your head all day long. Immediately, as soon as the music starts, the production smacks you right in the face. The music is crystal clear and crisp. The vocals are perfectly placed in the mix as well as every other instrument. Not a bad thing I can say about this release. Do yourself a favor and add this one to your collection. This is a must have.
Rating: 96
"Far Beyond the World" is definitely the most melodic sounding Ten release as compared to "Babylon" and "Spellbound", the two releases that got me hooked on Ten to begin with. It sounds more in vein of they're earlier releases, which I'm only a casual fan of. But unlike the Ten of old, I can't really pick out a song that stands out in "Far Beyond the World". The album as a whole just flat out rocks! I'm not sure if I'd rank it ahead of "Babylon", my fav Ten release (I'd have to give it a few more listens), but it's pretty damn close!
Rating: 100
Ten rocks. A heavy album, not as heavier as Spellbound, but more melodic. Gary Hughes vocal and production chops are flawless. Vinny Burns is a truly way underrated guitar player. Full on musicianship and excellent songwriting. Love the ballads on the album, as well as the opener three tracks, but the whole album is brilliant.
Rating: 100
WOW!!! I have to say that this is only the 2nd cd that i have purchased and felt was a "must have". (The of other was D2-Cockroach) This 6th studio release from Ten, I believe, is their best work. I think it is marginally better than "Babylon" and much better than "Spellbound". The opening track "Glimmer of Evil" is exceptional. My personal fav is "High Tide". Holy crap I am tired of reviewing this cd--I need to listen again, again, and again. In conclusion, buy this cd or die!!!!!
Rating: 95
After the first few bars of the intro to Glimmer of Evil, it is clear that Ten have at last recorded an album to rank alongside The Name of the Rose. Track by track, this initial feeling is consolidated by the strength and depth of tracks like Strange Land, Scarlet and Grey and the brooding brilliance of Heart Like a Lion. Ten's last three releases have been patchy affairs which I have constantly cited as being due to Gary's strongest writing efforts going on Bob Catley's solo albums. With Middle Earth behind him and Catley preparing to breathe new life into Magnum, Far Beyond the World could be a glorious new beginning for Ten. Very sad news for all fans that Vinny Burns has chosen this time to leave the band.

Hy everyone
Fist of all i wanna say that i bought this album a week ago!!!
The release date is 10 december(europe) but i think they made a fault down at the distribution because i wanted to place an order to get it at the exact date of release but then a day after they called to say it was there so (i happy) i jumped over there an bought it.
The albums really great because it is so different that the last one (babylon) The songs are not so dramatic and you can feel the songs, you know
Glimmer of evil is good but the only song i least like because it's like a song from the other albums.
Then comes Strange land and wow ( i've heard it earlier at the gods and it stayed in my head) this really great.
High tide is good but it doesn't stay.
What about me rules really, i fell in love with this song the first time i heard it, the chorus is so packed with gary's emotions great
Last of the lovers, Outlaw, Scarlet, are really great to and that's it.
Heart like a lion rules again, The second best song on the album fist it begins with an relaxed mood and then burst into this atmospheric chorus that captured my attention and that of a few friends and they diddn't ten at first but now they they are able to listen to it :)
black shadows good and then comes the The best and most commercial song ten made WHO DO YOU WANT TO LOVE really ****ing great man i love it but i was very suprised really, first a intro 1.15 minutes and then the vocals it begins with one and end up with 100 Listen to it yourself
and the album ends like any other TEN album with a ballad and this one is great like no other song far beyond the world

Rocky Votolato
"Little Spring"
Playing on Wednesday at Webster Hall (125 E. 11th St., East Village)
Get: Tickets ($15) | Directions
Seattle guitarist and singer-songwriter Rocky Votolato pens earnest folk-rock that recalls Simon & Garfunkel and is rooted in the folk and country melodies that he grew up listening to in Texas and the Pacific Northwest.
Before he released his debut solo album -- Makers in 2006 -- Votolato performed in rock outfits — most notably in the quartet Waxwing in the mid-1990s. In 2007, he followed up his first effort with The Brag & Cuss and then True Devotion in 2011. Votolato's loyal fans stepped in and successfully backed the self-release of his newest record, Television of Saints, which came out this past April. The opening song to the album, "Little Spring," is available for download above.

Hi all. Hope this is the right place to post
A couple of days ago I got an 8Gb iPhone with a "no SIM" error.
It seems it has been unlocked with Ziphone since a Z icon was on Springboard.
Tried a 1.1.4 restore (even in DFU mode), Ziphone, iLiberty+, erase baseband, downgrade baseband, no wifi/bt fix, Bootneuter, update bootloader to 4.6 and a custom ipsw with Winpwn.
Still no SIM and no ICCID. Everything else works like a charm, wifi, ipod, youtube etc.
Could someone give me a hint plz?
The model is MA712LL, serial # 867487xxxxx.
