I'm currently attempting to create a basic screen layout for gvim that shows up every time it opens. I'm also attempting to open buffers in a certain window. Because of the GUI init timing I'm forced to open the buffers with autocmd.
So my _gvimrc looks like this:
winpos 4 2
set co = 200
set lines = 50
autocmd GUIEnter * vsplit
autocmd GUIEnter * wincmd b
autocmd GUIEnter * split
autocmd GUIEnter * edit /users/user/_gvimrc
The problem is when I do this the gvimrc loses it's highlighting. So I tried VimEnter but that doesn't work either. Perhaps it's loading before the syntax files are sourced but I've no clue how to fix that.

What do you think of this cat?
It may have a lovely coat, but what about its personality? Is it
or trainable?
(You can pick more than one.)
What about this handsome tortoiseshell?
Is it active, aloof, bold, calm, friendly, intolerant, shy, stubborn, tolerant, or trainable?
One more kitty.
Active, aloof, bold, calm, friendly, intolerant, shy, stubborn, tolerant, or trainable?
Psychology researcher Mikel Delgado and her coauthors created a survey to ask people similar questions. They recruited 189 participants, and asked them to rank how much they thought white, tortoiseshell, and orange cats possessed the ten traits above. The study also included black cats and bi-colored cats ("questions about bi-colored cats would show whether the presence of white patches might impact attitudes to cat personality"). The general goal was to find out whether, and how, humans judged cats by their coats.
If you thought the orange cat looked friendly, you're in good company — survey respondents were more likely to attribute friendliness to orange cats than to the other colors (except bi-colored, who are apparently also seen as friendly). The study authors found this a bit surprising, since "depictions of some of the most well-known orange cats in American culture, such as Morris, 'The world's most finicky cat' and Garfield, who is described as lazy and cynical, are not positive." However, it's possible that "the tendency for orange cats to be highly anthropomorphized in advertising and other popular media influences their popularity. For example, both Morris and Garfield are depicted as being able to talk."
White cats, meanwhile, were more likely than others to be seen as aloof, calm, and shy. Tortoiseshell cats were aloof and intolerant. Black cats were just average at everything — no traits stood out as being more commonly applied to them.
Delgado and her coauthors note that these perceptions actually matter to kitties' well-being, since they could influence whether people adopt cats from shelters. They suggest that shelter employees take people's color biases into account and adjust accordingly: for instance, they "may want to promote white and tortoiseshell cats by emphasizing positive personality traits, recognizing that people may hold negative biases about these colors of cats." They could also put up Garfield cartoons to remind people that orange cats can be total jerks.

During summer, the room in which our 3 month old daughter sleeps frequently stays at around 22C (~72F) which is higher than we'd ideally like it to be. We are also swaddling her using a Summer Infant SwaddleMe cotton wrap. How can we tell if she is overheating at night without disturbing her?
The following, taken together, can help indicate overheating. None of these alone fully diagnose overheating, but taken together they can suggest whether you should take further action or not.
Signs of overheating in infants:
It may be that a temporal thermometer, with a light touch on the forehead, will not disturb your child. If so this can also be used to understand if they are overheating.

This is a very tasty dish - nice and hearty! The only change I made was to use a red bell pepper vs.a green one. Bulgur is one of my new favs so I was really glad to find a recipe that uses it. Will definitely make this again! Made for ZWT9-Cajun/Creole, July, 2013.
Having never had jambalaya I found this recipe quick, easy and fun to make. Changes I made - I doubled the recipe and used a red bell pepper and powdered garlic. I had to get Bulgar wheat from the health food store. This is very filling and tasty! I am not used to spicy foods - so next time I will likely use a mild salsa instead. This time I used a medium salsa. Either way - I will make this again! YUM!
Fantastic!! This was so super quick & easy! DH really loved this and I think next time I might add some okra to get even more veggies in there. This was very filling yet low in fat & calories plus it looks & tastes like it took forever to make. Thanks for a keeper SmellyVegetarian!! Made for Veg*n Swap 26!!

Just one question- how do I change to font style of the text?
I've followed the instructions given on:

I've changed the font to Arial but the change doesn't take place. When I use Firebug to look at the code, it's still getting the font from the original code, not the changes that I made in the custom css. The custom css does not seem to be taking precedence.

* FTSE 100 down 1.4 percent
* Italy election vote ends in hung parliament
* Vote potentially disrupts economic reform and Europe recovery
* Financials take most points off the FTSE 100
By David Brett
LONDON, Feb 26 (Reuters) - A tumble for bank shares dragged Britain's stock market sharply lower on Tuesday after election results threatened to leave Italy's economic reforms in tatters, reigniting concerns over the euro zone's debt crisis.
Europe's most indebted state faced a political vacuum after a huge protest vote left no party or likely coalition with enough seats to form a majority in the upper house.
By 0844 GMT, London's blue chip index was down 86.73 points, or 1.4 percent, at 6,268.64. The euro zone is Britain's biggest trade partner and crucial to its own hopes of an economic recovery.
"(This result) raises the prospect of an extended period of uncertainty," says Peel Hunt strategist Ian Williams.
"A more defensive approach seems more likely in the coming days. The recent moves in UK sector and style trends were already hinting at such a shift," he said.
Italy's ten year borrowing costs shot up, while the FTSE volatility index - a crude gauge of investor fear - soared 15 percent early on Tuesday, having gained 30 percent over the last month as concerns grew over the elections.
Financials were the top fallers taking 33 points off the index. They have been at the forefront of the FTSE's 6 percent rise so far this year and are most exposed to the euro zone crisis through corporate and public debt.
Commodity-related stocks tumbled too, taking a combined 24 points off London's blue chip index, as Italy's election results dented the outlook for the global economic recovery.
Consumer-related stocks also fell steeply with Britain's biggest hotel and coffee shop operator Whitbread, directly exposed to the broader economy and fortunes of the consumer, down 3.6 percent after the firm saw a slowdown in fourth-quarter sales.
"There was a slight disappointment in the weather affected restaurant business but the shares have fallen victim to the woes of the wider market," a London-based trader said.
Drugmaker AstraZeneca down 1.3 percent after it announced results from long-term safety trial of Naloxegol in patients with opioid-induced constipation.
BofA Merrill Lynch said it was keeping its "underperform" rating on AstraZeneca, awaiting more detailed efficacy and safety data from the two pivotal studies due towards the end of May.
"At this stage, we remain cautious given headline data published last year was mixed on efficacy (one Phase III study missed primary endpoint at one dose) and prior Phase II safety data suggests an undifferentiated profile vs competitors," it said.
There were just three risers on the FTSE 100. British specialty chemical maker Croda International massively outperformed, rising 3 percent after it reported a 6.6 percent rise in full-year profit.
Fresnillo and Randgold Resources, each barely in positive territory, were the other two gainers as investors turned to the two precious metal mining stocks as a proxy for safe haven gold. (Written by David Brett)

Washing hands after energy healing
Sometimes when you practive energy healing or diagnostics your hands start to accumulate the energy. This can be felt differently but usually it feels like there's some "noisy signal" on the hands, the palm feels tense and it may even ache. At the same time, you become less receptive to signals coming from other person's body. So, if you try to feel an ilnessl spot, you might not feel it because the palms are already "noisy".
Also, when you do energy healing, you manipulate the energy field (aura) of the patient, so you take some of his energy on yourself. You may feel pain in your palm and wrists and may even rise through your hand to the elbow and beyond.
First of all, don't let the pain rise above the elbows. You don't want to hurt yourself. If you feel that the pain or similar signal rises up your hand, try to shake it off or "remove" it with your other hand, like wiping it. If nothing helps, go to the bathroom and wash them up to the elbow.
Actually, washing hands after energy healing and diagnostics is a procedure that I met many times on different energy healing courses and in books, so there's definately an agreement on this between various practitioners. After long work with a patient, some even suggest taking a shower to remove all the energy of another person from yourself.
So, not only for bacterial hygiene but also for the energy cleanness of your aura field, wash your hands up to elblow after energy manipulation with other man's biofield.

I've been going on my very own personal healing journey for the past few months. After my mother passed away, I felt so hurt and empty. Ever since then I've been working on personal health and setting goals to feel better. I got a nice picture of my mom before she died, and I framed it and put it in a place where I will see it often – not to dwell on sadness, but to be reminded of the beautiful woman that raised me. I journal a lot. And I read and watch inspiring stories. I've also been doing some research and looking into energy healing classes in hopes of replacing some of my negative energy and depression with hope and energy.
I now realize that it is imperative to wash my hands right after finding the pain in a person. I've been gliding my hands about 3 inches over a persons clothes for many years. (I don't do that every day or even once a month. I do that whenever someone asks me to.)
I feel the heat from another's pain/blackness in the body. Since this ability has always been natural ,like brushing my teeth in the morning, I've never given the strange pains a second thought .
Now , I am giving a second and third consideration; that the energy that's connected me to others could also be the same energy that could cause illness. After 1 hand surgery and enduring sporatic unexplainable severe pain in both hands;this article makes a great deal of sense to me.
thank you, Jackie
You are completely right. I'm practicing a sort of healing touch, although I am a psychiatrist and psychotherapist myself(certainly not with the same patients)This is a very old practice of a Christian orthodox monks which is, unfortunately unknown largely yet. It is called Issichastic transcendence, but the energy is all the same as in other cultures.
By applying the energy to patients, we are substituting "bad energies" in their own aura and physics, harmonizing it, and certainly taking some of the "bad" energy with us.
A running water is the best neutralizing method. Anyway, as much our skin is clean as much we are getting photons and energy that we direct towards painful and needed parts of a client.
Best regards for Jackie and others Sincerely, dddavid, Belgrade, Serbia
Perhaps I've absorbed too much negative energy? Perhaps I have rare blood disorder because of the negative energy?
I've learned that Jackie Chakouian, who wrote article above, has been correct in finding the area of sickness 100% of the time. I find that amazing. Is she a reiki healer? I would hope so.

Absorptive Capacity: An Empirical Examination of the Phenomenon and Relationships with Firm Capabilities
Date: May 2012
Creator: Daspit, Josh
Description: The field of strategic management addresses challenges that firms encounter in an attempt to remain competitive. The ability to explain variation in firm success through examination of knowledge flows has become a prominent focus of research in the strategic management literature. Specifically, researchers have sought to further examine how firms convert knowledge, a phenomenon conceptualized as absorptive capacity. Absorptive capacity is the firm's ability to acquire, assimilate, transform, and exploit knowledge. Few studies have captured the richness and multi-dimensionality of absorptive capacity, and it remains to be understood how the dimensions of the phenomenon convert knowledge. Furthermore, how absorptive capacity influences the firm remains to be understood. To address these research gaps, this dissertation seeks to (1) determine how absorptive capacity converts knowledge, and (2) determine how absorptive capacity influences firm capabilities. The research questions are investigated using structural modeling techniques to analyze data collected from software-industry firms. The findings offer contributions to the absorptive capacity and capability literatures. For example, absorptive capacity is hypothesized to consist of complex relationships among its internal dimensions. However, findings of this study suggest the relationships among the dimensions are linear in nature. This finding is in line with the theoretical foundations of and ...

Authentic Transformational Leadership and Implicit Leadership Theories.
Date: August 2008
Creator: Nichols, Thomas W.
Description: Transformational leadership describes a leader who motivates followers to performance beyond expectations, but it has often been attacked for its potential to be abused. A newer form of leadership has been proposed, that of authentic leadership. Authentic leadership is an over-arching concept that proposes to include transformational leadership and all positive forms of leadership. At the heart of authentic leadership is the concept of ethicality. The concept of authenticity may contribute to the transformational leadership paradigm, producing an ideal form of leadership. Authentic leadership may not be an over-arching form of leadership, but one suited particularly to transformational leadership. I propose that authentic transformational leadership resides in leaders' and followers' implicit leadership theories. This experiment addresses authentic transformational leadership and the role of implicit leadership theories in directing leader behavior. A model is developed that outlines the relationship between authentic transformational leadership and implicit leadership theories, including the separate implicit theories of leader and follower, leader-member exchange (LMX), and leader effectiveness. Hypotheses concerning these relationships are developed. The study is experimental, using WebCT as a delivery tool. Scenario-based surveys were developed to collect data, using both known measures and measures developed specifically for this experiment. Two pilot studies were conducted ...

Cognitive Complexity in Group Performance and Satisfaction
Date: December 1996
Creator: Mayer, Bradley Wayne
Description: In this study, a comparison was made between the various levels of group cognitive complexity and its relationship to task performance and task satisfaction. The goal of this research is to answer the general question, "Should decision-making groups consist of individuals who are similar in the way they differentiate and/or integrate various stimuli in order to increase performance and satisfaction?" The preceding research problem was analyzed in a laboratory setting using a 2 X 2 factorial design blocked on the variable, cognitive complexity. The Repertory Grid was used to measure the cognitive complexity of 228 student subjects. These subjects were stratified into groups of three based on their cognitive complexity score on the Repertory Grid (Kelly, 1955). Each group was treated randomly with one of two levels of task complexity (complex or not complex). Moreover, the groups received an imposedgroup structure that incorporated centralized or decentralized decision-making. Results indicated that groups consisting of cognitively complex members outperformed groups consisting of noncomplex members. No support was obtained for the two-way interaction between group cognitive complexity and either task complexity or group structure. Support was obtained for the interaction between task complexity and group structure on both task satisfaction measures. The highest ...

Description: Corporate entrepreneurship, its correlates, and its impact on the global presence of firms were examined through 439 United States companies, represented in all geographic realms of the world. Executives responded to a lengthy survey of organizational characteristics which enabled corporate entrepreneurship and its dimensions--innovation, proactiveness, and risk taking--to be examined in firms with varying global presence. Risk factors were assigned to countries and realms from the averaged rankings of three published risk-forecasting services. Maximum risk country, maximum risk geographic realm, average risk of countries, average risk of geographic realms, number of countries, and number of geographic realms, were differentially weighted to equalize scales and combined into a composite global presence scale. Strategy-related variables--competitive aggressiveness and adaptiveness--dominated other organizational attributes in explaining corporate entrepreneurship, and corporate entrepreneurship dominated other variables in explaining global presence, according to correlation and multiple regression analysis. Although no variables correlated strongly with measures of global presence, corporate entrepreneurship consistently had significant positive correlations across all six measures of global presence and the composite global presence scale. In forward stepwise multiple regressions, corporate entrepreneurship was the first variable entered into the prediction equation for five of the six measures of global presence; only when the dependent variable ...

Cultural Diversity and Team Performance: Testing for Social Loafing Effects
Date: May 1997
Creator: Heller, Deanna M. (Deanna Marcell)
Description: The concept of social loafing is important with regard to organizational effectiveness particularly as organizations are relying on teams as a means to drive productivity. The composition of those teams is likely to reflect the current movement of racial and ethnic minorities in the work place. The primary purpose of this research was to determine the role cultural diversity plays in enhancing performance and thereby eliminating social loafing. The research study is significant because 1) it is among the first to use culturally diverse work groups while examining the social loafing phenomenon, and 2) the groups were intact project teams, rather than ad-hoc groups commonly found in social loafing experiments. It was anticipated that the members of culturally homogeneous groups would engage in social loafing when their individual efforts were "buried." However, subjects in both culturally diverse and culturally homogeneous groups resisted social loafing behaviors. Additional statistical analysis revealed that as group orientation increased, performance levels increased as well. Group orientation, then, appears to be a more powerful determinant of performance than group composition. It is expected that the time these groups had together and the performance feedback opportunities provided them, prior to the experiment, contributed significantly to these results. ...

Customer Induced Uncertainty and Its Impact on Organizational Design
Date: August 1999
Creator: Chowdhury, Sanjib Kumar
Description: How firms facing environmental uncertainty should organize their activities remains an important and challenging question for today's managers and organizational researchers. Proponents of contingency theory have argued that organizations must adjust their activities to fit the level of environmental uncertainty to ensure long-term survival. Although much work has been done on contingency theory, it is clear that our understanding of uncertainty is far from complete. One important aspect of today's organizations is their focus on service, mass customization, and continuous innovation. This focus often results in the customer being brought either into the organization or at least into closer contact with it. Even though the literature provides numerous evidences of the increasing customer focus, it is yet to empirically explain how the complications of customer-organizational interactions might create uncertainty for contemporary organizations. The traditional measure of uncertainty still considers customers as an environmental factor causing demand uncertainty while ignoring the complex nature of customer and organizational encounters. Seeking to further refine the concept of uncertainty and focusing on the contemporary business phenomena, this study develops measures aspects of customer induced uncertainty and examines their relationships with three organizational design variables. Specifically, this study explains the complicated nature of customer - ...

Determinants of Small Firm Performance: the Importance of Selected Managerial Personality Traits, Perceived Environmental Uncertainty, Scanning Activities, and Managerial Goal Setting Activities
Date: May 1988
Creator: Walker, Jim L.
Description: Much of the previous research on organizational performance deals with the larger businesses. As such, the owner/managers of small firms and researchers interested in small businesses have had to work with planning models which were not formulated with small businesses in mind. Therefore, the general purpose of this study is to help correct this deficiency and add to the body of knowledge concerning the contributions specific factors make toward increasing the performance of small firms. Specifically, selected managerial personality traits, managerial perceived environmental uncertainty, managerial scanning habits, and managerial goal setting activities are utilized to develop three models. The three models are used to determine the relationship the factors have to each other and the contribution the variables make toward the performance of the firm. The firms included in this study are located in a South Central metropolitan area. The firms have between 2 and 100 employees, sales of less than 3 million dollars, and have been in operation 2 years or longer. This study utilizes regression analysis and path analysis to determine the effects the factors have on each other and their contribution to the firm's performance. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSSx) is utilized to run ...

Dominant Decision Cues in Labor Arbitration; Standards Used in Alcohol and Drug Cases
Date: August 1989
Creator: Crow, Stephen M. (Stephen Martin)
Description: During the past twenty years, extensive research has been conducted concerning the judgmental processes of labor arbitrators. Previous research, sometimes referred to as policy capturing, attempted to identify the criteria or standards used by arbitrators to support their decisions. Much of the research was qualitative. Due to the categorical nature of the dependent variables, log-linear models such as logit regression have been used to examine decisional relationships in more recent studies. The decision cues used by arbitrators in 249 published alcohol- and drug-related arbitration cases were examined. The justifications for arbitrators' decisions were fitted into Carroll Daugherty's "seven tests" of just cause. The dominant cues were proof of misconduct, the appropriateness of the penalty, and the business necessity of management's action. Foreknowledge of the rule by the grievant and the consequences of a violation, equal treatment of the grievant, and an appropriate investigation by management were also important decision cues. In general, grievants in alcohol and drug arbitration cases fared as well as grievants in any other disciplinary arbitrations. However, when the cases were analyzed based on the legal status of the drug, illicit drug users were at a considerable disadvantage.

Effectiveness in Company-sponsored Foundations : A Utilization of the Competing Values Framework
Date: August 1994
Creator: Bormann, Carol J.

Quinn and Rohrbaugh's Competing Values Approach of organizational effectiveness was used as the theoretical framework for the study. The Competing Values Approach is an integrative effectiveness model which clusters eight criteria of effectiveness into four theoretical models of organizational effectiveness.

One question I havent found an answer to...
Ok, you can save a couple hundred bucks or more if you buy a HD ready TV instead of a built in HD tuner (just a SD). But do you need a HDTV with a built in HD tuner (or a seperate HD tuner with a HD ready-tv) in order to get the 1080i and/or 720p quality out of a 360 or will the 360 deal with the signals and no HD tuner is necessary?
Tuner Ecessary?

HD ready means that the TV has the ability to show an HD signal from an outside source. HD built-in means that you can hook up an antenna and watch High-def signals over the air. I have an HD built in TV and am able to get FOX, ABC, NBC and several other stations in high definition. If you don't care about that/or you are going to get HD TV from your cable/satelite provider then I wouldn't spend the extra money. (All providers I know of make you use their cable box regardless of if your tv has, "HD built in.") Just make sure the TV you are going to buy supports either 720p or 1080i and has component inputs and you should be ready for all the 360 HD goodness you can handle. (So no you don't have to have a tuner)

'Times' Editor Joe Sexton Channels Eminem
A reporter spies on the party mourning the end of the 'Times' Metro Section.
The Observer's John Koblin crashed the saddest media party ever over the weekend, the dance wake for the Times' Metro section (which the paper killed on Monday) at editor Joe Sexton's house. "At a certain point in the living room, Mr. Sexton presided over a dance party — mostly hip-hop," Koblin writes. "He spent a good amount of time dancing," said a staffer present. "He's able to lose himself — for a guy who's under so much pressure, he can lose himself admirably." [NYO]

Eclipse Of The Heart Lyrics
Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit lonely
And you're never coming around
(Yeah, Yo, Huh... small real life man more real love)
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit tired
Of listening to the sound of my tears
(That's all we got man, that's all we need yo straight maintainin)
Yo I must be the most valuable playa in this game of life
The way I claim my name is like yo but I'm just tryin to maintain baby
These people think I'm flaws but for real yo my mind is lost
I could spill my heart out right now but yo would it be worth it cause
I got what I need so I'm giving back I'm not a taker
And no longer to soon cause we gettin paper can ya'll feel that?
Time flys fast but I got to feel my ground
Cause nothin hurts you more than when your best friend is lettin you down
Finally I understand we're from heaven my dogs by my side
When my man got accepted by college I almost cried man
They never lie to me have pictures while I was on the side line
We all had the same dreams of watching each other shine
But it was the ones who knew me as I am when I just needed a hug
Thinkin I would live in a better place if I just spread some more love
Space is not an obstacle I feel you closer when we're apart
My peoples forever in my heart stand by my side when it's getting lost
Turnaround, every now and then I get a
Little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
Little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Ay yo I'm turnin around every f**kin step I take burns to ground
It ain't that hard to see that I'm the one whos hurtin now
I'm to cursed to plow motha f**kas wanna see me underground
But when I'm walkin on the path but I'm searchin for the crown
Bring it to heart this shits complicated ain't no nobody can get the picture
I ain't gettin richer but motha f**kas be playa hatin what's the deal?
4-8 soldier blessed with skills
The rest will fill this f**ked up shit that stresses me when I need to kill a man
Paranoia with the break me break me shit is so crazy crazy
Gotta wake up gotta take some time to takes what's mine I'm first to make it
Everyday runs straight blaze me blazy
Please tell me lord get these feelings off my shoulders
I show you motha f**kas ya'll can't hold us
Two of dogs behind bars I left the scars
Hopin that his soul would not be intoxicated but I'm sayin that in some f**kin laws
I gotta be strong I gotta move on
Losin my backs protected by laws not for share to see one
Note to my family and those who roll with me
Turnaround, every now and then I get a
Little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
Little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
Little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
I knew that it was love at first sight but too forbidden to be right
I saw it in her eyes she needed a man like me in her life
But first you try to hide it as your heart is beatin
You had some thoughts of cheatin but you resisted the temptation
The situation was this girl knew how to treat a man
Soft as sand so slim and so tan sincerely the most perfect body
Everyone told me to touch another mans girl is the biggest sin but I couldn't stop kissin that soft skin
I had to wear this girls hand at the thought my heart would fall in love again
I was a playa in this game heart swellin up with pain
But that all changed I knew you were gone be my soon
Late night callin my cell phone when yo man was sleepin in the other room
You don't deserve to cry I want to be the one to make you smile all the time
But I was too focused on gettin mine
In the end we got lost faith played the biggest trick on us
It was him, me, and you left stuck with three hearts crushed
Turnaround, every now and then I get a
(Yeah, we came a long way man can't break this shit now)
Little bit lonely and you're never coming around
(L.E.O.P.A God bless the child with peaceful eyes)

$theTitle=wp_title(" - ", false); if($theTitle != "") { ?>
This one's for the kids. Earlier this week, I tapped into my inner child and checked out the prescreening of Marmaduke. I'd say the movie was Homeward Bound meets Mean Girls meets Superbad… of course not as "adult" funny as the latter two.
Based on a comic strip of the same name (dating back to the 1950s), Marmaduke the movie is about a suburban family that movies to the O.C. from Kansas, as the man of the house has a great job opportunity there. Speaking of great. Great Dane. That's the kind of dog that Marmaduke is, and he's main character and narrator in the film. He's a big dog and he manages to continually get himself in an equal amount of big trouble. Perhaps the dog version of Dennis the Menace – he means well, but it's just one thing after another.
It's a star studded voiceover cast, with Owen Wilson playing Marmaduke , and George Lopez playing his sidekick cat, Carlos. Moving to a new neighborhood means that Marmaduke has to face a new community of pooches. The "Top Dog" in the neighborhood is Bosco, played by 24's Kiefer Sutherland. He's the bad ass purebred dog you don't want to mess with. In fact, all the purebred's are totally pretentious and rule the dog park. Fergie plays Jezebel, Bosco's girlfriend who is also a purebred. Of the other non purebreds, Emma Stone (House Bunny) plays Mazie, a dog that helps Marmaduke figure out how things work around there. Christopher Mintz-Plasse plays a small dog named Giuseppe, who is essentially the dog version of same character he played in Superbad – McLovin'.
Marmaduke's owner, Phil Winslow (Lee Pace) introduces Marmaduke to his boss.
Marmaduke and four of his new friends in the O.C. dog park.
RATING: 2.5 out of 5 stars. I think if you're a child it'd be higher rating. Hey – it was better than Garfield!

Doctors not backing down against Weis in malpractice suit
Updated: July 20, 2007, 6:05 PM ETAssociated Press
BOSTON -- On the practice field, in a recruit's house, at halftime in the locker room when he is channeling Knute Rockne, Notre Dame football coach Charlie Weis speaks -- growls -- and darn near always gets what he wants.
That take-charge style has not worked in a courtroom, where he is suing two doctors over a gastric bypass surgery that left him so close to death that a clergyman was summoned to administer last rites.
A first trial ended in a mistrial, and the doctors ...

Supported Layouts and Capacities
When we began our search for a wedding venue we had a few things listed on our ""must have list"". Because it was planned for the fall in the South we knew we wanted both an outdoor and indoor option. We knew we wanted the setting to be elegant, but not pretentious, classy, warm, inviting and memorable. We wanted to feel like we were in a castle far away, yet stay in our own home town. We wanted our guests to have great food, comfortable seating and to dance the night away. We wanted to celebrate in a setting that felt like a great home, not a stuffy, overdecorated venue. We found all of this at Longview. We had our ceremony outside on the back lawn. Even though this is a golf course, the backyard is landscaped so beautifully, it masks the course. The entrance was dramatic and stunning as I was able to come down a long flight of stone stairs with my parents to my groom. This also made a great setting for pictures. The cocktail hour was filled with amazing treats, and lots of them, and the drinks and service were above par. The club was able to comfortably seat all of our 100 guests in a manner that allowed for maximum socialization, without anyone feeling they were seated in the ""after-thought"" table. I barely needed to decorate or plan for anything as the assistant took care of most of my needs with great recommendations and a professional eye and and hand. We have heard from most of our guest that our wedding was by far the most beautiful wedding they have ever attended. We have also heard our food was top notch and our dessert room at the end of the party was a huge hit. I have recommended this venue to anyone who asks ""what's a good place to have a wedding?"".

HONOLULU (AP) - Conservative talk radio show host Rush Limbaugh plans to hold a press conference at the Hawaii hospital where he was admitted after experiencing chest pains.
Limbaugh will be speaking at The Queen's Medical Center at 1 p.m. PST.
Limbaugh was rushed to the hospital Wednesday from the Hawaii resort where he's vacationing. A statement Thursday from Queen's said he was resting comfortably in "good spirits."
George Mason University economics professor Walter E. Williams, who did vacation relief for Limbaugh on the three-hour show, said the chest pains could be an indicator of a cardiac event, although the cause hasn't been determined.

LONDON (May 1, 2013)--A British police force hopes to save time and money by giving some dementia patients GPS tracking devices in a move that some campaigners condemned as "barbaric."
Last week, Sussex police announced a plan to buy GPS devices for 15 people with dementia who are at high risk of getting lost.
The devices, which can be worn around the neck or attached to keychains, send GPS locations to a website every four minutes.
Chief Inspector Tanya Jones described it as a "cost-effective" strategy, which would save police time and money by not having to search frequently for lost patients.
The National Pensioners Convention on Wednesday slammed the idea as inhumane and said patients could be stigmatized and made to feel like criminals.

Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
Every week you'll get a brand-new comic cover theme game! The game works like this: I'll show you three covers. They all have something in common, whether it be a character, a trait all three characters share, a connection between all three characters, a locale, a creator, a trait all three creators share, SOMEthing. And it isn't something obvious like "They all have prices!" "They all have logos!" "They all feature a man!" "They are all Avengers (who ISN'T?)!" "They're all dead (who HASN'T been killed off?)!" "They've all been cloned (who HASN'T been cloned?)!" "They're all mutants! (who ISN'T a mutant?)" "They're all legacy heroes (who ISN'T a legacy hero nowadays?)!" etc.
In addition, please note that you must have some familiarity with comic book history to correctly guess these comics. You cannot guess the connective theme just by looking at the covers solely, you must have some knowledge beyond just the covers. The connections will ONLY have to do with connections in the actual comic books (so no incidental connections like "they share the same last names of Vice Presidents," etc. Now, if the three characters were each named Gerald Ford, that'd be another story, as that'd no longer be incidental).
If you come up with an answer that works outside of what I intended, I'll give you credit (well, provided I think it fits, of course).
One more thing – if there are floating heads on the cover, ignore them! They don't mean anything! Same thing with corner boxes!
If you think you know the answer, e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Don't answer in the comments. This way, people who check in at different times of the day can still get credit for answering it correctly!
Here is an archive of all the past cover theme games, plus their answers. Before each new installment, I'll post the answers to the previous week's game.
Good luck and enjoy!
Reader Cully tells me that this is the 100th one of these that I've done at Comics Should Be Good. In honor of that, I'm going to re-use the first Cover Theme Game from 2005 (it wasn't at CSBG)! If you were around back then, then you'll recognize it. If not, well, here ya go! Either way you can answer the theme, even if you remember the answer from back in '05!
HINTS: Since there are so many characters on the covers, I'll eliminate one from each of the cover. On the first cover, Hal Jordan is not part of the theme. On the second, Tempest is not part of the theme. And on the third, Blue Beetle is not part of the theme.
Wow, 100 Cover Theme Games! And I've loved every damn one of them, even the ones I had no hope of guessing. Here's to many more!
Oh god. You used DC covers. My (through admitted neglect) kryptonite! This is also one of my favorite features. Let's keep it rolling!
That's a lot of characters. I'm thinking there could be multiple possible themes here.
Very possibly!
My OCD kicked in to make me count the ones on the archive page, and I come up with this one being 95 (the 31 from Jan '11, another in '11, and the weekly ones from the start of '12, which should be about right).
Still, this is like, the 90th time I've typed some variation on "I just don't know!"
I just don't know!!!
There was one entry in 2008 not on the archive that had five games in it.
But really, this would only be 100 as far as having their own entry just on Comics Should Be Good. They appeared elsewhere on CSBG for a year or two before they got their own feature and they appeared elsewhere before that.
That's true, didn't you do some as Snark Blockers?
But anyway, I'm perfectly fine in calling it 100. Yay!
Even though I rarely know 'em, I do like this feature.
That's a lot of characters. I'm thinking there could be multiple possible themes here.
In fact, since there are so many characters, I threw in some extra hints by eliminating one character from each cover.
Ah, so the theme is NOT characters who were killed off during a giant crossover. (Final Night, Infinite Crisis [Tempest died in that, didn't he?] and Infinite Crisis…again, I guess)
Man, had I thought of that BEFORE you eliminated them, I could have gotten a good guess in. Dang!
Congrats on the 100th game!
Most of the time I'm getting stuck and only once in a while get an answer. Yet, it's one of my favorite features on CSBG.
Luckily, this time I got the answer (mostly thanks to Brian's clue…)
I'm just trusting the count in the Categories listing to the right! Provided you've tagged all the entries correctly, this is the 100th.
D'oh! Yeah, forgot about that. At least one of those would be the archive, though. Then I see "Comic Theme Time" too, and wonder if that's the same thing.
With Brian eliminating those three characters, I've identified A theme (no idea if it's the right one or not).
Comics Should Be Good accepts review copies. Anything sent to us will (for better or for worse) end up reviewed on the blog. See where to send the review copies.

Comedian Gaffigan savors New Year's in Milwaukee
Pasty comedian Jim Gaffigan has become such a New Year's tradition in Milwaukee that Point Brewery in Stevens Point bottles a special beer in his honor for the shows - aptly titled "Jim Gaffigan Pale Ale."
This will be the sixth year that Gaffigan, 46, performs at the Pabst Theater around New Year's. Beside the fact that tickets continue to sell well (he's playing three shows from Saturday through Monday this year) there's another important reason why he keeps coming back. »Read Full Article

'Things Being What They Are' transcends male stereotypes
I'll admit I wasn't doing cartwheels upon learning the Milwaukee Chamber Theatre's holiday play, Wendy MacLeod's "Things Being What They Are," involves two middle-aged, avowedly heterosexual men bonding over brewskis. One of the many reasons I go to the theater is to escape such conversations, which are frequently slathered in cliché when they're not conducted in guttural utterances.
But as MacLeod's smartly written, warm and funny play makes clear, such stereotyping isn't fair to men, and it certainly isn't fair to this moving and entertaining production, which marks the talented Michael Cotey's Chamber directorial debut and features winning performances from actors Dan Katula and Ryan Schabach. »Read Full Article

The news that Jack Wilshere is taking longer than expected to recover from his ankle injury will have Arsenal fans feeling an icy sensation of dread, as the last time we heard that sort of thing, it was 17 months on the sidelines for the Gunners star.
Tag Archives: Lennon
Celtic admit they will struggle to keep Arsenal target Wanyama
Victor Wanyama is one of the players linked with a summer transfer to Arsenal to fill the troublesome position of defensive midfielder, and his manager at Celtic, Neil Lennon, admitted that they are not too confident of being able to keep the 21-year old at Parkhead for another season. The manager was speaking after Celtic went out of the Champions League following defeat by Juventus last night.
Don't blame the Arsenal Defenders!
Defensive Frailties by PW
As you have invited thoughts from Gooners these are mine.
Sunday's result was our local derby and means far more to them than us so I tend to dismiss it as another defeat and much less serious than defeats to Norwich (who were on the crest of a slump when we played them), Bradford and Blackburn which were morale sapping.
Wenger – Arsenal were the much better team
Arsenal suffered their third defeat in four games yesterday to leave them seven points behind Tottenham with just ten games remaining in the Premier League, and the Gunners now face an uphill battle to get back into the Top Four and qualify for the Champions League.
Tottenham vs. Arsenal review Gunners lose a close encounter!
Abou Diaby did not recover to make the Arsenal squad, so Arsene Wenger chose to start Aaron Ramsey alongside Arteta with Wilshere in his more advanced role. It was clear from the start that Ramsey would play his normal game and not just try to stop Bale from influencing the game.
Will Wenger set Arsenal up right to beat Bale and Tottenham?
How Arsenal can beat Tottenham, but will Wenger act? by JG
Following a huge disappointment last night, when West Ham ran out of steam in the last 20 minutes, and Sam did not bring on the subs quickly enough, our manager must see that the one man team we play this weekend can be stopped. Lennon was hardly in the game and our traitor of a striker was again very poor. However, Bale is on fire.
Arsenal need to move fast to beat United to Wanyama
Arsenal are workinh hard to bring at least two quality players to the Emirates before the transfer window closes in just over a week. Most people seem to think that one of these will be a striker, with David Villa and Stevan Jovetic two possible transfer targets. The other is likely to be a defensive midfielder, possibly a player in the same mould as Abou Diaby. With the club also short on centre backs, Arsene Wenger may well opt for a player who can also fill that position in an emergency.
Celtic brace for Arsenal bid for Wanyama?
After Arsene Wenger declared that the club are ready to spend some serious money in the January transfer window, some clubs will be dreading the phone ringing as they may be about to lose one of their best players to the Gunners. One of these clubs is Celtic, the Scottish champions, and the manager Neil Lennon is going to try to persuade his Kenyan midfielder Victor Wanyama to sign a new contract with the club in order to keep clubs like Arsenal at bay.

3 Troubled Lives, a $1 Theft, And a 13-Year-Old Boy Slain
By ANDY NEWMAN and AL BAKER
Published: July 12, 2002
It is perhaps a measure of the bleakness of Patrick Bhola's brief, chaotic life that its quality was only somewhat diminished by his family's eviction from their Brooklyn apartment a month before his death.
Patrick, 13, went from staying with four relatives in a one-bedroom apartment in Bedford-Stuyvesant to living with two in a one-room apartment in Brownsville.
But after a few weeks of commuting to Bedford-Stuyvesant every day to run the streets and take part in his favorite activities, which apparently included stealing bicycles and shoplifting, Patrick, the police said, crossed paths with a pair of more accomplished criminals: Delon Lucas, 18, and his girlfriend, Clarine Jones, 21, whom a neighbor described as ''natural born killers.''
On Monday afternoon, the police said, Mr. Lucas placed a dollar coin on the counter of the Super Grocery and Deli on Van Buren Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant to pay for a loose cigarette and walked away for a moment.
Patrick, a pudgy boy, took the dollar, a clerk at the deli said. A few hours later and a few blocks away, the police said, in the third floor of an abandoned house on Greene Avenue, where Mr. Lucas and Ms. Jones often stayed, the couple took Patrick's life.
On Monday night, the police said, Mr. Lucas invited Patrick, an acquaintance from the neighborhood, up to what he called his penthouse with an offer of marijuana.
Upstairs Mr. Lucas confronted Patrick about the dollar, the police said. Then the couple tied him up and took turns beating him with a baseball bat, the authorities said. Then, they said, Mr. Lucas stabbed him and stuffed him into a closet, where he was later found dead.
The couple were arraigned early today on charges of second-degree murder and second-degree kidnapping. An assistant Brooklyn district attorney, Janet McDonnell, left open the possibility that her office would pursue charges of first degree murder, thus making it a capital crime.
The police said the couple freely shared details of the crime.
The value of a dollar being what it is these days, the real motive for Patrick's killing is unclear.
Ms. Jones's 22-year-old sister, Bell Jones, recalled a conversation she once had with Mr. Lucas. ''He said to me, 'Bell, my mother didn't care about me,' '' she remembered. '' 'My father didn't care about me. That's why I don't care about anybody else. I'll kill anybody. I don't care.' ''
Mr. Lucas was arrested on a burglary charge in 1998 and has a sealed juvenile record, a law enforcement official said. Clarine Jones was arrested in January on a robbery charge.
Clarine, her sister said, was once a sweet girl who had descended into rage and mental illness years ago. ''There's something that's in her that's not in other people,'' Bell Jones said. When asked what, she paused and then replied softly: ''Mister, the Devil. The Devil himself.''
Clarine Jones had been accused of robbing stores with knives. She was finally accepted into the Bloods street gang, her sister said, after months of getting into fights with anyone who questioned her claim that she belonged to the gang.
Together, neighbors said, Mr. Lucas and Clarine Jones skulked the streets, cursing out anyone they encountered. People learned to stay out of their way.
''These two were violent,'' Inspector Michael Gabriel said of the pair. ''We are also looking at an assault that these two were involved with where an individual was stabbed. These two were a violent pair.''
Patrick's body was discovered when Mr. Lucas showed the body to an acquaintance, Michael Rogers, who also frequented the abandoned house, Mr. Rogers said. ''He said, 'You'll look out for me, right?' '' Mr. Rogers said. ''I said, 'I got you.' ''
Instead, Mr. Rogers notified the police. By the time they responded, Mr. Lucas and Ms. Jones had fled.
''They're natural born killers,'' Mr. Rogers said on Wednesday in front of the house where Patrick died. ''They killed Patrick to see what it felt like. Delon just picked Patrick because he's a weaker target.''
Mr. Rogers said he once saw Mr. Lucas pull a man out of a car, slam his head on the hood and return a short while later to stab another man in the car.
Sometime after the killing, Bell Jones said, Mr. Lucas came to her house and told her, ''We did something bad.'' She said he told her he picked up a dresser and smashed Patrick in the head, then beat him and cut him. ''He was happy.''
On Wednesday morning they were captured, found hiding on the roof of 680 Ralph Avenue, where a relative of Mr. Lucas's lives.
In statements to detectives, the couple incriminated both themselves and each other, the police said.
Ms. Jones's lawyer, Jesse A. Young, said early today that ''not only is my client presumed innocent, she in fact is innocent.'' A lawyer for Mr. Lucas, Margaret Martin, of the Legal Aid Society's Capital Division, said only ''this case is still in the early stages.''
As for Patrick, for all his misbehavior, he was in several respects a decent, if misguided, or, more accurately, unguided youth, some of his neighbors said.
''He was the type of person who said what he felt and adults around here didn't like that,'' said Londean Parker, 31.
