On The Fly: Closing Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were quiet and traded in a fairly narrow range for their sixth straight session, despite a "merger Monday" that saw over $100B in deals announced. The Dow and S&P, which began the week near record levels, passed back and forth across the flat line several times during the day, though the Nasdaq weakened early in the session and never really recovered. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., industrial production fell 0.1% in October, missing expectations for it to have risen 0.2% from the prior month. October capacity utilization came in at 78.9%, which fell short of the expected 79.3% rate. The Empire State manufacturing index, which reflects manufacturing activity in the New York region, rose 4 points to 10.2 in November, which was generally in-line with the consensus forecast. In Asia, Japan's GDP unexpectedly shrank an annualized 1.6% last quarter, missing projections for a 2.2% gain and sinking its economy into a recession. COMPANY NEWS: Actavis (ACT) gained $4.17, or 1.71%, to $247.94 after confirming that it agreed to acquire Allergan (AGN) for a combination of $129.22 in cash and 0.3683 Actavis shares valued at approximately $66B, or $219 per Allergan share. Valeant Pharmaceuticals (VRX), which had been in a contentious fight to buy Allergan, commented that it "cannot justify to its own shareholders" paying a price of $219 or more per share for the Botox maker, whose stock rose $10.55, or 5.31%, to $209.20... Halliburton (HAL), conversely, fell $5.85, or 10.62%, to $49.23 after it agreed to acquire Baker Hughes (BHI) in a stock and cash transaction valued at $78.62 per Baker Hughes share, representing an enterprise value of $38B. When the deal talks were first reported by The Wall Street Journal last week, antitrust concerns were highlighted by analysts, but Halliburton said it had agreed to divest businesses that generate up to $7.5B in revenues, if required by regulators, and agreed to pay a fee of $3.5B if the transaction terminates due to a failure to obtain required approvals. Baker Hughes rose $5.34, or 8.92%, to $65.23 after the deal was announced. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Celldex Therapeutics (CLDX), which advanced $4.09, or 28.88%, to $18.25 after the company reported it saw a statistically significant overall survival benefit, along with an increase in clinically meaningful tumor shrinkage, in a sub-group of its study of a drug to treat a specific type of brain tumor. Also higher was Amicus Therapeutics (FOLD), which rose $1.01, or 17.75%, to $6.70 after the company announced additional data on secondary endpoints from its second Phase 3 study of its treatment for Fabry disease. Among the noteworthy losers was William Lyon Homes (WLH), which fell $3.52, or 15.53%, to $19.14 after the company announced that it intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, 1M tangible equity units, which will consist of a prepaid stock purchase contract and an amortizing note. Also lower were shares of DreamWorks (DWA), which dropped $3.71, or 14.26%, to $22.31 after multiple media outlets reported that talks about a takeover of the company by Hasbro (HAS) had ended. INDEXES: The Dow gained 13.01, or 0.07%, to 17,647.75, the Nasdaq lost 17.54, or 0.37%, to 4,671.00, and the S&P 500 added 1.50, or 0.07%, to 2,041.32.
Amicus Therapeutics files to sell $75M in common stock
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is acting as sole book-running manager for the proposed offering. Cowen and Company, LLC and Leerink Partners are acting as lead managers and Janney Montgomery Scott is acting as co-manager for the offering. The Company expects to use the net proceeds of the offering for investment in the global commercialization infrastructure for migalastat monotherapy for Fabry disease, the continued clinical development of its product candidates and for other general corporate purposes.

Medidata announces collaboration with GlaxoSmithKline
Medidata (MDSO) announced the completion of a method development project conducted in partnership with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) to evaluate the impact of unifying mobile health, or mHealth, devices with cloud-based technologies in a clinical trial setting. The joint initiative assessed the capabilities of mHealth tools and evaluated how they could be used to enable a new model for clinical trial conduct that aligns site and patient needs with faster study execution and reduced costs. The collaborative project, which took place at GSK�s Human Performance Lab, demonstrated that mHealth technologies have the power to comprehensively collect large volumes of objective data that is reliable, secure and analysis-ready, and provides real-time, continuous insight into the well being of patients. All of the data collected was audited and is compliant with FDA regulations. Additionally, the effort indicated that mobile devices can support the long-term goal of lessening the burden on patients participating in studies by streamlining routine procedures, eliminating unnecessary ones and reducing visits to clinical trial sites.

Amicus announces positive data from Fabry monotherapy study
Amicus Therapeutics announced additional positive data on important secondary endpoints from its second Phase 3 study of the oral small molecule chaperone migalastat HCl for Fabry disease. In a poster1 at the American Society of Nephrology Kidney Week 2014, results were presented from Fabry patients with amenable mutations in Study 012 who switched from standard of care enzyme replacement therapy, ERT, to migalastat as their only therapy for Fabry disease. Data from the Fabry Registry indicate that the leading cause of death in patients is from cardiac complications2. In Study 012, patients who switched from ERT to migalastat showed a statistically significant decrease from baseline to month 18 in left ventricular mass index-LVMi. LVMi is a measure of cardiac hypertrophy, an increase in the size of the heart that has been associated with an increased risk of cardiac events in Fabry patients."Cardiac disease represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Fabry patients that is not adequately addressed with currently available treatment," said Professor Ales Linhart, MD, PhD, a leading expert in the cardiac manifestations of Fabry disease from Charles University of Prague. "The data showing further regression of left ventricular mass in patients switched from ERT to migalastat in this study are very promising since in other cardiac conditions a reduction of cardiac mass typically translates to significant improvements in long term outcomes."

I was pronouncing it "Core-ee-AHNK-ah" when I talked to her and her mother, and no one corrected me. And I think that's how her mom said it.
I was pronouncing it "Core-ee-AHNK-ah" when I talked to her and her mother, and no one corrected me. And I think that's how her mom said it.
I am looking forward to lots of snarky comments about the Salahis being on RHoDC - I have a bunch, but would rather sit back and read what others think. Bring 'em on Roxanne and Amy.
Let's see... anyone here got any opinions on the upcoming Real Housewives of D.C.? Anyone?
The Real Housewives must be an incredibly boring show, because I even got bored reading deMoraes' review today, and I NEVER get bored reading anything deMoraes writes, until now.
I saw bits and pieces of it yesterday -- constrained only by deadline concerns and the fact that the screener I brought home was all scratchy. I can vouch for the show being rivetingly tedious. I ate it up like candy, but I know that's largely because I've been following the filming for a year now and I feel like I know these characters. But you know, I find the other cities boring as can be, and this looks a lot like those.
Our colleague Neely Tucker went to the Salahi's latest America's Polo Cup (see our blog post on Sunday; will also put out a link)... he counted about 200 people or so. No idea how many of those people actually shelled out $95 for a ticket.
So if George Clooney's job on the Council on Foreign Relations is to sit there and look Gray-Templed Hot, can my job be to sit there and salivate? While contributing to the erudite discourse, I mean.
Can you be erudite while salivating? Just asking.
I cannot WAIT to watch RHODC; however, do you think anyone outside the Beltway will be fooled into believing these women have anything whatsoever to do with "real" D.C. power society? I mean, nobody within 19 circles of someone with real political/social power would get within 100 yards of this production. Still, it will be a delightful romp.
"Television Without Pity" was laughing that we'd even bother debunking the notion that these woman are powerplayers (which they are not) -- the writer said something to the extent of "all they need to be is crazy to entertain me." But the show does prop them up as Players. What do you think, though -- does the average viewer at this point "get" the fact that no reality TV is reality?
Last week you did a bit about the connetions between the Wire and Treme. Not sure if you know but the actress playing Clarke Peters's daughter in Treme is the same actress (Edwina Findley) who played Tosha, the stick-up girl in Omar's crew who is killed in a shootout.
I did not know that. Well done!
Washington filled with social climbers? Ya think? Of course it is. But few are as brash, brazen or colorful as the Salahis.
I am sure you are going to get this comment a lot today, but there is nothing even remotely D.C. about any of the "Real Housewives". It is precisely D.C. culture that precludes participation - an authentic D.C. type would never get in bed with this kind of a production, which means they are left with a bunch of phonies they could find in any city.
Beginning to suspect that "reality TV" isn't so real, huh?
You also have to realize how absolutely staged these shows are. And it's not just the editing: Any scene you see is a scene in which they brought an entire camera crew, which you need to get permission for... These shows are just improv soap operas, starring a cast of non-professional actors.
Bravo says the latest edition of its hit franchise "is set to take on the Hill," with women who are "connected D.C. power players. Really? These women dont even live in D.C., are hardly prominent (I would say they were C-listers), and have ZERO connection to any so-called D..C political power players. The fact that they would put Salahi (a fraud and liar, and potential criminal) on the show proves its not worth watching.
I think the inside joke for Washingtonians is that they are six degrees of separation from real political power. That's part of the extreme weirdness of choosing to film a version of the show here. Then again, maybe real powerbrokers of other cities also declined to be part of the show, so every version is full of wanna-bes.
Maybe only one of The Real Housewives of D.C .actually lives in D.C. That's what bothers me the most as a longtime resident of D.C. If these women want to make idiots of themselves, that's fine, but let's call it The Real Housewives of Fairfax County, or wherever it is that they live. Don't get me wrong...I'm a longtime viewer of the Housewives franchise, but I think that Bravo needs to be more honest about what they are presenting.
Honesty is the least of their concerns.
You still get calls from people who are owed money by the Sahalis? How can you throw that out there and not elaborate? Are they new debts? And if they are, have you asked any of the debtees why they would extend credit to these people after all the exposure regarding their finances and deadbeatness (probably not a word, but should be)?
No, old debts. People who are belatedly coming to us with stories much like the examples the Style section presented in its three-part series in December.
Summer starts next week, right?
I'm just happy to be here.
I found it interesting to learn more about her. I also loved how much fun she had with the NBA draft!
Irene Pollin adjusting to life without Abe; downsizing, she unloads three properties in one week
I have to say she sounded great when I spoke with her. She's a class act, and I wish her nothing but happiness.
This one is going to be the final nail in the cofffin of that franchise. Even if Bravo runs those darn NY and NJ Housewives 24/7 ( which they practically do ), I'm not watching and no one I know ( outside of the Beltway ) gives a hoot about the D.C. gals either.
That's what Lisa argued in her story yesterday. Even though "Real World" hasn't been doing well for years, "Real World: D.C.'s" ratings really dragged it down. I think the average viewer hears "D.C." and thinks a show is going to be earnest and tedious. They don't realize that we're as capable of staged binge-drinking and hair-pulling as the next city.
We'll have to have a Clooney Tie Watch in anticipation of his first CFR meeting.
Well, Lisa was tickled by Mary Amons installing a biometric lock on her closet so her daughter couldn't take her clothes. That's wacky! From what I've seen Catherine Ommanney also looks like she's happily positioning herself as a meanie. Stacie Turner is the only one who comes off as genuinely likeable, and I wonder if that will doom her when it comes time to signing cast up for a second season (if there is one).
Oh, she may have learned EVERYTHING from Lindsay Lohan. Though it sounds like she's pulling more of a Christina Aguilara, with that whole "my skanky clothes are just reflecting where I am as an artist" thing.
That video with Bob Etheridge freaking out kind of scared me. Why didn't the college kid just punch him out ? That's what our generation would have done.
Because the point was to make him freaky and the "students" look innocent. This was an ambush designed to undermine Etheridge and it worked brilliantly---although I'm not sure if he was a target or any Dem who came out of Pelosi's fundraiser would have gotten the same treatment.
Etheridge should have smiled, waved and kept walking if he didn't know who they were. Might have looked rude, but not enough to post a video.
Amidst all the stuff about the Salahis and RHofDC, what a pleasure to read such a nice thing about an apparently nice guy. Also, the "first marriage at 54" thing means there's hope for me yet!
Yes, there is hope for you yet.
"Real Housewives of McLean and Bethesda" -- hey, why not?
I think folks should calm down about Elton playing that wedding gig for Rush because after all Elton has some pretty hefty real estate taxes and big bills for fancy costumes and stuff. A guy's got to do what a guy has to do.
A job's a job. But he probably loves the fact that everyone's talking about this. It puts him on the radar of other rich people looking for wedding singers.
I think you'll get that.
Do they?
What about Al Gore and Mrs. Larry David? Someone said favorite color is beige.
Can we stop that right now? A trashy tabloid using one unnamed source floats this, and suddenly it is a fact. STOP. It's unfair to both families, no matter what you think of Al (you isn't commenting) or Laurie David, who has already said it's not true.
Oh lord, am I going to have to start reading the Bravo blogs? Didn't even know about those.
I hope you all saw the quote we had on Monday from N.J.'s Housewife Teresa Giudice, explaining how it's just a TV show: "You might think, 'Ho bag!' in your head, but in the Real Housewives World, on camera, you are expected to say it out loud."
Real Housewives of Virginia or Maryland wouldn't sell. Many people I meet don't even know the difference between Virginia and West Virginia. And we all know a lot of geographically challenged people watch reality shows. At least most people know something about D.C., you know, like the president lives there.
Cut to shot of White House.
I have been trying to put my finger on what totally irks me that the Salahis are on this show. Especially after watching the trainwrecks from NYC and N.J. Maybe it is that I have always thought of DC as a place of public service and non-profits (and their lawyers) rather than housewivery and McMansions. Then again, none of the cast actually lives in D.C. proper, right?
See? "Real Housewives" is going to help bash all the weary old stereotypes. D.C. is SO MUCH MORE than public service and non-profits and lawyers!
Headlines should really specify which Randy Jackson they're talking about.
I missed it this week, how was the owner of the 9:30 Club? Did he pass for a decent New Orleans bartender?
I haven't seen it yet; think I might be watching tonight.
Is there hope for Bristol and Levi? The idea of these two kids getting along is too much to ask. Them being cordial is the happiest news I have seen in awhile.
I think we're just talking about them not hating each other. And maybe talking without starting a fight, which is good for the baby. I would not put money on them suddenly falling in love/lust again.
Wouldn't it have been easier just to send her to swim offshore in the gulf instead of all that fuss about getting her greased up for the president of Peru ?
But there are always photographers around the White House, which was the point of this little exercise in political theater.
She is a magical combination of all three. (I assume Billy Gibbons was wearing shades, right? So does Lisa.)
Funny, I google-image her, and I come up with Kay Francis, Kathie Lee Gifford, and the girls from Blonde Charity Mafia. Equally accurate.
Why is Charlie Rose nominating people to the Council on Foreign Relations? I know people love them some Charlie Rose, but I aints one of them.
Because he's a legend in his mind? And lots of people buy into it?
That's an awesome quote. She's my favorite based solely on that observation.
Yeah, not that I'm supposed to have opinions here -- but I actually do think he's too boring to cheat on his wife.
Listen, we're open to any evidence or tips you may have to pass on to help corroborate this rumor. But in the meantime, we're only going to present news that we can vouch for -- whether it's based on sources we have determined to be solid, or news from organizations we trust. And we're always going to have a problem -- even with the most trustworthy organizations -- when they're presenting a story based on a single unnamed source whose identity we do not know.
Maybe this is more appropriate for Ms. de Moraes - but I think someone should create a whole Mental Illness Reality Network and with all of these shows on hoarding and addiction. These "real housewives" all clearly suffer from Narcissistic Personality Disorder. The Salahis actually appear delusional. I read through the Web site for their polo event and it was some kind of fantasy.
I'm sure someone in Hollywood is already working on this.
Exactly. I was amused last year to see a spate of stories theorizing about who might star on RHODC, focusing on well-known names. It's like, not only would no well-known person in D.C. want to be part of reality TV... but these shows have NEVER cast well-known people. They only become famous by being on the show.
I remember when Nick Clooney, George's father, ran for the U.S. House of Representatives from Kentucky. It's actually a blue-leaning congressional district but Nick Clooney lost by a small margin. The opponent made a bit "Hollywood versus Heartland" stuff since he is the father of George Clooney. Just curious, is the Council on Foreign Relations a big deal or not so much? Plus there are always rumors about George running for U.S. Senate from either his native state of Kentucky or more likely California when either Barbara Boxer or Dianne Fienstein retire.
It's prestigious and influential. But it has 4,000 members, many of whom you haven't of -- obscure academics, and rich people with a deep interest in foreigh policy. It's a think tank, not a government entity. It's not like he'll be drawing up our foreign policy.
By the looks of it, he was rude and physically hostile, but I doubt it qualifes as assault. Hard to say, though -- I'm no lawyer.
I am looking forward to the 3-D version of the movie about the Salahis and their goat rodeo. This could even be a family-centric film--lead goat escapes and has to be rescued by friendly D.C. stray dog?
Congratulations -- you are the first person in the chat today who made me laugh out loud. There was even a minor nose snort.
I want to hear all about the D.C. househusbands!
You mean, the ones married to the Real Housewives? Or you want a completely different show?
Did you read this article about Maya Soetoro-Ng talking about her experiences both now and as child by being mixed raced. Pretty interesting, right?
Haven't read it, will check it out, thanks.
People don't think D.C. types are just earnest and tedious. They think they have an insular and tenuous grasp on reality, which makes a reality-based show in D.C. an oxymoron
You're right. The most real possible reality show about D.C. would be inherently unreal.
Now, now. Freedom of speech. I'd hate to see "America" come with a (TM) after it.
If I remember the story correctly, you were the one the recognized the Sahalis at the state dinner. Had you met her before? Never heard of her before and she hasn't come accross as anything other than fake and creepy since this happened, but given the circumstances, one might not get a view into her personality with this kind of heat. So, my question is: do you think that there is a side of her that can be protrayed in a flattering light? Does she have a depth that isn't apparent because of the type and tone of the publicity? Could Real Housewives soften or redeem her? Or is she just a creepy fake person?
Yup, I sent this dog-and-pony show into orbit when I recognized them at the state dinner, although I had never met them in person. I knew who they were because of our reporting on the Oasis winery family saga, and had spoken to Michaele on the phone concerning that.
It's been my experience that highly ambitious people with limited talent and a flexible moral code can be very effective at saying or doing anything to get what they want. So is it possible the cameras can find a flattering moment? Sure---she's fooled plenty of people. Depth? A deep well of desire. Real Housewives will make her more famous, which is what she wants. Redemption implies she takes some responsibility for poor behavior---and there's no evidence of that. That's creepy in my book.
Real Houseflies of Washington, D.C.
You too! You also made me laugh out loud. And it's not even that funny!
How about a congratulations to Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, who's getting married this weekend? She looks like Jenna Bush; the fiancee is kind of nerdy-cute.
She's cool and yes---deserves a shout out. Congrats, future queen!
So like the rest of the franchise, 1. Not real 2. Not housewives 3. Not from D.C.
Yes, that sums it up nicely.
Who's still around. Amazing.
How much longer will he be around D.C.? Is he doing anything outside the city? Like, going to visit sites in Virginia or Maryland?
The play is just here through the end of the week, I think. He seems to be getting around a lot to enjoy the region, and good for him. I can't account for everywhere he's been -- we don't yet have the power or authority to attach GPS trackers on our visiting celebrities and have to rely on you, the readers, for these sightings. So remember: email@example.com.
I could tell you, but I think she prefers to retain an aura of mystery.
Eh, people like to vent. It does crack me up, though, that someone who professes not to care will nonetheless bother to click on a story, get all the way to the bottom, and then post a comment saying "who cares?"
I will call this to the attention of the International Ruling Commission on Apostrophe Usage.
There may be some reason for the Gore split and if another person comes to light----with some actual reason to believe it might be true, not wild speculation---then we'll report it. Until then, it's just tabloid fodder.
As for the Clintons: They have crazy schedules and plenty of reasons not to be in the same place because of their jobs, not their marriage. We can talk about them all we want, but they have decided to stay married and it seems to work for them---and they are spotted together enough to fend off rumors of a divorce.
Confession -I spend too much time on the Internet. The reaction to every Real Housewives franchise, with the possible exception of the O.C. because it was first, is the same. So to those of you who live in the affected cities where these shows take place - chill out already. The television audience already knows real power needs no advertisement. You don't have to worry about your city being somehow sullied by the existence of this show. This is empty entertainment, not a documentary.
We will bring you in to quell the August riots.
So in their own indirect way, they are influential.
This basically desribes the plot of "The Hills" as best as I can tell.
They spend their lives showing off. Why would they stop now?
I saw a piece on the Today show this morning about the Princes William and Harry traveling in Africa and it looked like William is balding - or seriously dramatically thinning anyway.
Yes, well, he's getting older. We all are.
Yes! I'd watch that in a heartbeat.
I was talking about Christina Aguilera's get-ups of a few years ago -- and they were skanky! And she proud of them being skanky! That was the whole point! As for Miley, she's the one who brought the word "slutty" into the conversation, and no, her stage get-ups aren't normal teen girl wear. She is, first and foremost, a performer, and I'm not going to criticize what she's wearing -- but it was a very funny quote, and I think she's pretty savvy about turning the conversation around to how she looks/what she wears, knowing it will bring her attention.
It's in the center of every charity ball and dinner, even though you can't see it. You know you've climbed it when you whisper about anyone trying to get to the top.
You sound way too sane to ever be on a reality show.
Although it seems like such a non-issue, I'll ask. Who do you think will get Helen Thomas's front-row seat in the White House Press Briefings. If FOX News gets it and you're expecting them not to make a big deal about it, you've obviously never actually watched FOX News.
Good question. I have no answer, but was grateful to turn the topic away from Housewives for a second.
Ha ha!
So, when my office group breaks for lunch, we've decided to come up with a fantasy team of RHW we'd like to see rep'ing D.C. We've agreed on Ms. Sally Quinn and will be proffering other names over soup/salads. Any thoughts? (Sheila Johnson, Denyce Graves?)
We could only dream that Denyce Graves would be on a Real Housewives series -- that would be amazing.
That's right. He and Elton are on the same page there, as we discussed last week.
Actually, it depends what the WaPo stylebook says is right. For example, Chicago style encourages the use of apostrophes in the "Q&A" situations to clarify that it's letter-A A's, not capitalized preposition As.
Exactly -- this takes higher-level review. I don't think this one is a no-brainer.
Donald is a publicity genius. The SCRAM bracelet will be off by the time it starts filming. The only question is whether Lohan will actually do the show. She'd be so bad it would be riveting---and wouldn't get fired until the very end because of ratings.
This is just a guess, but probably not.
I don't know. One hopes that they've decided to become brilliant deadpan performance artists like Spencer and Heidi, willingly casting themselves as the villains.
YES! Brilliant idea.
I think the national viewership would be roughly equivalent to maybe four times the number of the people in this chat right now, but it would be my favorite reality show ever.
In that photo, he sure seems to be sweating a lot. Is that healthy?
Not for the people standing around him.
How light-handed do you think that Real Housewives will be with the Salahis? If they wanted entertainment, they would show all the crazy (not a real watch! ; she wasn't a cheerleader!) but something tells me they are going to deal with them with kid gloves. Also, do they get paid for this?
I disagree. I predict Bravo will wallow in the humiliation of the state dinner aftermath. They're not particularly kind to any of their Housewives.
If I were with someone I report on, then it wouldn't be a vacation. It would be work.
Seriously, Q'orianka Kilcher hasn't really parlayed her role as Pocahontas in The New World into anything else, so can we please stop calling it a "breakthrough"? She didn't "break through" to anything -- she had a major star turn and couldn't follow through. So, color me a skeptic, but that just pushes me into the "she might believe in the cause, but what a bon-headed publiity stunt" camp.
Whatever. With that movie, she went from unknown to, well, known enough that attaching her name to a cause gets it a lot more attention.
Oh, they had been filming the Salahis and the others for months before the state dinner -- the state dinner actually happened towards the end of filming, which largely wrapped up by the end of the year.
Here's the thing, though -- while it's clear that back in November, all five were already been treated as solid parts of the cast, it just wasn't official yet. Because at any time in the editing process, Bravo could have said, "nah, this one's not working out." So back in November/December, we couldn't accurately describe them as cast members, because, well, who knows? But they were pretty far beyond the preliminary audition phase.... And yes, by the looks of the previews for the show, they will have a LOT of the state dinner stuff.
The backlash happens to everyone...
"Because the point was to make him freaky and the "students" look innocent. This was an ambush designed to undermine Etheridge and it worked brilliantly---although I'm not sure if he was a target or any Dem who came out of Pelosi's fundraiser would have gotten the same treatment. " How do you know this or is this just same kind of unsourced speculation that the Star used regarding Al Gore and Laurie David? Do you have any proof of this vast right-wing conspiracy?
I never said it was ring-wing anything---could be someone from his state or party who doesn't like him much. But we do have some facts to work with: The videographers have not come forward to identify themselves as actual students, that they have not clarified what the "project" is that they were working on, that they questioned Etheridge about the "Obama agenda," that we don't know how the tape was edited, and that they leaked this video to the conservative media----facts that lead a reasonable person to assume all is not quite as it seems at face value.
That being said, Etheridge response was over-the-top idiotic, and the kids deserved an apology, ambush or not.
Even before Hank Steuver's piece, I've been thinking "meh" on the Top Chef franchise. Though plan to watch as cameras catch them going from Georgetown to Tenleytown Whole Foods via Lincoln Memorial!
Ha, always love those D.C. geography shots. "Real World D.C." was priceless for those. A scene of the gang heading out in Adams-Morgan would be interspersed with some random shot of Chinatown or the Tidal Basin.
I've never watched Top Chef before, so this will be my first.. .
I forget. Is it really easy or really hard for non-white actresses in Hollywood? Q'orianka Kilcher had the same skin color as Lindsay Lohan, you'd be seeing in any and all major motion pictures.
That's a complicated question -- complicated by your Lindsay Lohan analogy. I mean, when was the last time she had a role in a major motion picture? I think Hollywood is hard for all actors.
Not a peep. They are keeping details under tight wraps.
Well played.
Ha! Can't promise---never know what we'll post for your enjoyment.

For the fifth year in a row, Fort Bragg will join schools from around the world to celebrate International Walk and Roll to School Week on Oct. 1-5. The goals of this event are to raise awareness about safe routes for walking and bicycling, and to promote safety, health, physical activity, concern for the environment, and a sense of community. Students and families of the Fort Bragg Unified School District are encouraged to safely walk, bicycle or skateboard to school all week long.
The mayor of Fort Bragg has proclaimed Wednesday, Oct. 3, as Fort Bragg Walk & Roll to School Day. Walking School Buses will travel with students, parents, and community leaders to Fort Bragg schools. Walking School Buses will depart the "Celebration Station" at Harold and Maple streets by 7:30 a.m. for the middle school and at 8 a.m. for Dana Gray and Redwood Schools. A "breakfast-on-the-go" will be available for students at the Celebration Station. Students and families are encouraged to join the Walking School Bus or to form their own neighborhood walking school bus or bike train by linking with friends, neighbors and family. If walking, biking or busing to school is not feasible, families are encouraged to carpool with neighbors and friends.
Over 5,000 schools in all 50 states and over 40 countries around the world are expected to participate in International Walk and Roll to School Day on Oct. 3.
Additional information about Safe Routes to School or International Walk and Roll to School Week is available at the following websites: Fort Bragg Unified School District: http://www.fbusd.us/; National Center for Safe Routes to School www.saferoutesinfo.org; International Walk to School in the USA www.walktoschool.org; and California Walk to School www.cawalktoschool.com.

The Yamaha SR125 is one of the oldest 125 cruiser type motorcycles on the roads today. It first appeared in the UK way back in 1982, was withdrawn in 1986, then returned in 1991. It's an ideal CBT motorcycle, but beyond a training school car park the Yamaha SR125 feels slow and outdated in almost every way.
1170cc, 105bhp, 130mph, Insurance group 14
It's hard, objectively, to see the point of the BMW HP2. It's a 105bhp, 175kg off-roader that costs almost £11,000. Yes, it does have some clever technology like air suspension, but on the flip side its use as a road bike is limited, which is why the factory now offers free 17-inch rims and tyres with each new HP2.

"This card is a perfect fit for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary invitation. My mom is a photo fanatic, and this clever layout allows for the true feeling of past and present to set the tone for the party. I love paper and printing, so I opted for the Premium Double Thick Matte paper stock, which is wonderful! It creates a very upscale presentation. I am impressed with the print quality. The colors are spot on, not saturated like I've experienced with other vendors. The interface is extremely easy to use. I highly recommend this product."
"I chose the 'Anniversary Vine' for its beautiful, twirling tendrils of a stylish vine entwining the significant age of my son. This design adapted well to being used for a Bar Mitzvah invitation. (While the Bar Mitzvah invitation options are all lovely, Anniversary Vine fits more perfectly to our needs.) Being able to personalize the text, colors & the number made this design the best choice. The service once the order was placed far exceeded my expectations. And the prompt delivery amazing! (Posted May 22; Arrived Melb.Australia May27.) I have no hesitation in using Tiny Prints for all my stationery needs and telling all my friends."
"The invitations are really beautiful, have received many comments from relatives that received the invitation. After the initial error that was made (put the empty box on the front) which was really a terrible mistake, why would someone send out something like that. After I called, the new invites came in two days. I appreciate that. Thank you."
"The invitations were easy to set up and the preview feature made it easy to visualize the finished product. We received the invitations in 3 days and they are absolutely beautiful! I will be a repeat customer. Thank you!"
"I ordered this invitation with the rounded edges and signature matte and it came out perfect! I am so impressed with the quality and the entire look of it. Very nostalgic and authentic. Not only did my order come out perfectly, but I ordered rush delivery and I received it faster than the expected delivery date. I ordered on Saturday night and had them in my hand by Tuesday!!! Definitely worth paying for the rush delivery if you're short on time. I was also contacted within 24 hours to make a couple corrections. So happy and will use tinyprints for everything now! Thank you!"

November 28, 2014
Boulder, Colo. (AP) Freshman applications to the University of Colorado through mid-February are down almost 15 percent from the same point last year, which represented a record-high admissions cycle.
The number of Colorado students applying to CU's flagship Boulder campus through mid-February was down about 6 percent from the same time last year to 7,709. Out-of-state applications were down 19 percent, to 11,456 applications.
Admissions Director Kevin MacLennan says the decline is to be expected amid an economic downturn and the addition of two mandatory essays to the application, which might be weeding out some less-serious applicants.
A record 5,833 freshmen enrolled on the Boulder campus last fall.

Our own Monthly Comedy Shows in Hartford, CT
Sea Tea Improv at
Sea Tea Improv's
Sea Tea Improv at
|One Sunday per month
|One Friday per month
|One weekend per month
| Our shortform improv show!
Similar to "Whose Line is it Anyway?", we take tons of suggestions from the audience and use them (and a few audience volunteers here and there) in a variety of scenes, songs, and competitive games made up right on the spot!
Come see the show and have dinner, drinks & dessert while you watch — City Steam brews their own beers right on the premises.
This is our first and longest-running show — we've performed over 50 monthly shows at City Steam since 2009.
| Our longform improv show!
We bring the big-city style improv of New York, Chicago, Boston & LA to life in Hartford!
We'll take a single suggestion of a word, phrase, or title, get inspired by improvised stories from celebrity guests, or interview audience members to create a 25-40 minute improvised comedy with different scenes, themes & characters!
The showcase features Sea Tea Improv's show AND other performances by invited groups & mixed improvisers from all over, for a big fun festival-style show!
| In this newest addition to our monthly shows, we put on special one-time or experimental comedy shows that may not even be improv!
We've done improvised musicals, a special show for kids & families, a sketch comedy show with live music similar to SNL, a show where the improv groups swapped members, and a show with new one-off groups that were no bigger than 3 members each!
These shows are where we do something truly unique — don't miss a once in a lifetime opportunity!

Sea Tea Improv Presents an ImprovBoston Workshop with Will Luera
Sea Tea Improv is bringing Will Luera, the artistic director of ImprovBoston, to Hartford to teach a workshop on a longform improv style known as "Close Quarters" at TheaterWorks (233 Pearl Street, Hartford, CT) on Saturday, July 28th from 11AM to 2PM.
The members of Sea Tea Improv are taking this workshop, and we've got just 9 additional spots to fill, so we're telling Hartford-area improvisers about this great opportunity to join Sea Tea Improv for a workshop with this great instructor!
The cost of this workshop is $47 per person. For reference, a 3-hour workshop at ImprovBoston is $65 per person, but Sea Tea is using part of a grant from the City of Hartford that we got to bring outside improv instruction to Hartford to help cover some of the cost for CT improvisers!
There are only 9 spots, and since this is coming up very soon, the only fast and fair way we can think to offer these spots is first-come-first-served via a PayPal payment. (Note: you do not need PayPal account to pay via PayPal: you will see an option that says "Don't have a PayPal account? Pay with your debit or credit card as a PayPal guest.")
Here's the link!
We hope to take this workshop with you!

Physical Improv (Summer Improv Workshop Series)
Instructor: Kate Sidley
Cost: $35, $30 for college students
Say goodbye to talking heads! This workshop is designed to get improvisers relaxed and comfortable with being physically active on stage. Create a realistic subway car, dive off Niagra Falls, be a gnarled tree, and get swept up in a tornado. This class will give you the tools you need to create dynamic and active environments on stage while working physically and safely with other improvisers. You don't need to be an athlete or contortionist to be physical in improv, but with the support of your team and some basic skills, you'll have an audience applauding your every feat. Students should come prepared to move.

Build-A-Character (SOLD OUT!) (Summer Improv Workshop Series)
Instructor: Julia Pistell
Cost: $35, $30 for college students
Southern belles, sarcastic bellhops, and suspicious busboys-- we all know a well-drawn character when we see one. But how do you build them in the heat of the improv moment?
Veteran Sea Tea Improviser Julia Pistell will guide you through the process of creating a character within an improv scene without undermining the integrity of your story. Using your particular strengths, you'll create at least three characters that you can play with for the rest of your improv days. We'll work with point of view, philosophy, and physicality to create characters that last for much longer than a single laugh. We promise: a character is a lot more than a silly voice or an impression. Come and meet your other selves!

TheaterWorks, 233 Pearl Street, Hartford, CT 06103

As south Texas braces for yet another hurricane making its way through the Caribbean and Gulf, many wonder: are these storms going to keep coming one after another?
Some say it is the price you pay to live in paradise, but coastal residents have been paying earlier than usual this year.
Emily is already the fifth major tropical storm to hit so far this season, which started June 1, but does not typically peak until August.
"2005 is one of only four years in which we have had five named storms (that is storms that have reached tropical storm strength or higher), by August 1," said State Climatologist Jerry Stenger.
Stenger said he knew this year would be active, with a prediction of four intense hurricanes this season, but he did not know they would hit so early.
Still, he said this does not mean there is going to be more storms than first thought.
"When we look at the relationship between the total number of storms in the season and the number of storms that occurred through the month of July, we do not see a statistically significant relationship," he said.
Stenger blames unusually warm waters which feed hurricanes for the early storms, but each time a storm passes through, it stirs up cool water, weakening the storm.
Stenger says this is what happened to Emily.
"Part of the reason why Emily weakened so much over the past couple of days is because of this passing over cooler waters that had been stirred up," he explained.
Emily might gain back her strength, but she could very well be the storm before the calm.
Emily is supposed to gain strength back to a Category 3 hurricane, and is expected to reach more land by tomorrow.

Game plan keeps tailgate food safe
MISSISSIPPI STATE – A successful tailgate party requires a winning game plan for the food, not just for the football game that follows.
Food safety experts say one in six people gets a food-borne illness each year. While most of these incidents do not require hospitalization and are even blamed on a stomach bug or 24-hour virus, these illnesses are avoidable.

I know we're all excited with the upcoming PTR patch, especially us T4/T5 tanks who will be able to get a large amount of upgrades from the new Zul'Aman instance and new Heroic Badge rewards.
I've already started farming gold, gems and enchants and looking at gear to see what possible stats I could expect. I've already made a list on my guild forums concerning my calculations. So here is what I got:
Now the gear is excellent, I don't think anybody will doubt that. The main problem I see is the extremely low amount of defense rating on the tanking gear. Usually I'd stack up +12 Stamina gems in everything, like my live character, but I had to resort to Defense gems and try to work with gems colors and socket bonuses to maintain a high amount of hit points while trying to stay above 490 Defense.Quote:

574 Block Value
84.45% Total Avoidance
158 Strength
106 Agility
16604 Hit Points

469.58 Defense
Does anyone have any ideas to work around this? One solution would be to stack defense rating gems, possibly +4 Defense Rating and +6 Stamina with the +8 Defense Rating gems.

Remembering the affair to rememberApril 05,2013Its kind of nice to have Mark Sanford back.
Perhaps not if youre from South Carolina. It is my strong impression that many South Carolinians are tired of their former governor, who so famously snuck off to Argentina for some extramarital recreation while his aides claimed he was camping on a national hiking path. A resident of Columbia, the state capital, told me that he had been in Peru, on a train to the legendary ruins of Machu Picchu, when a local resident asked him where he hailed from.
At the mention of the words South Carolina, the Peruvian nodded happily. Appalachian Trail! he cried.
After skulking around in political exile for several years, Sanford staged a sort of a comeback on Tuesday, winning the Republican nomination for his old House seat. It was a triumph of sorts, although one that only required defeating a former county legislator who did not live in the district, in a race that attracted the excited participation of about 10 percent of eligible citizens.
At his victory party, Sanford said the campaign had been an amazing journey. Since the great disaster of 2009, Sanford has taken to mentioning this journey called life rather frequently. Perhaps, in a perfect world, a guy who got in trouble for jetting off to assignations on the taxpayers dime would not focus quite so much on travel metaphors.
Sanford will now run against Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch, a local businesswoman and sister of the comedian Stephen Colbert. She seems to be planning a deeply noncomedic campaign. But, still, hosting this race would be way more fun than being in Texas, wondering whether Rick Perry is going to run for a fourth or is it fifth? term.
Or in Tennessee, where lawmakers have just introduced bills to eliminate U.S. Senate primaries and let the state legislators pick the nominees. These new decision-makers would presumably include the members who recently expressed concern that the mop sink in a newly renovated Capitol mens lavatory might actually be a special foot-washing facility for Muslims.
Or New York City, where a Democratic state senator has just been indicted on a charge of trying to bribe his way into the Republican nomination for mayor. Through the alleged services of a Republican city councilman, who has represented himself as a member of both the Tea Party and a tribe of Theodish pagans, making him what The Village Voice called the first openly elected heathen in the nation.
OK, the heathen part was pretty good. However, dwelling on this story will only cause New Yorkers to revisit the fact that three of the last four full-time majority leaders of the New York state Senate have wound up under felony indictment.
Id rather keep track of Mark Sanfords evolution. So far, his spin strategy has been all about empathy and forgiveness. (Its only really in our brokenness that we really begin to understand each other.) By the end of the primary, you had the impression that the key to a new bipartisan spirit in Washington would be having all the members of Congress tell each other about their affairs.
There are too many people in politics who think that they know it all. And I think that they project this whole image of perfection, he told Jake Tapper on CNN.
Not a problem here.
Since we last had Sanford to kick around, hes been divorced and gotten engaged to the Argentinian squeeze. He virtually never mentions her and she barely got a shout-out on primary victory night. (She completely surprised me, claimed Sanford, who told Tapper that he just turned the corner on his way into the ballroom and there she was.)
His ex-wife, Jenny, has written a book about her marriage, and now South Carolinians know that Sanford is not just fiscally conservative; hes also so personally cheap that he once gave his spouse a $25 used bicycle as a combined birthday-Christmas present. Also, theres the revelation that he excused some of his mysterious absences from home by saying he needed to go off and relieve the stress he felt due to thinning hair.
Sanford has always had a terrible case of chronic self-absorption. Now that hes talking about his feelings so much, its turned into a creepy New Age egomania. It began with his post-Appalachian-Trail press conference, when he rambled on and on about his love life as if the assembled reporters were best pals whod invited him out for a drink. (It was interesting how this thing has gone down.) More recently, according to New York magazine, he went to visit Jenny, who used to run his campaigns, and asked his still deeply estranged ex-spouse if shed do another. I could pay you this time, he added empathetically.
Her refusal was probably a surprise. Like the victory night fiancee.

Overkill's second live record was recorded in their native New Jersey turf, and featured a more compact set on one disc that was released alongside a DVD version. By this point the band had an entirely new pair of guitarists, Dave Linsk who had come aboard a few years prior, and Derek 'The Skull' Tailer, a more recent addition, so they've still got that extra rhythm guitar as with the previous live released in 1995. All told, the better selections here are superior in sound to Wrecking Your Neck Live, but that's also the catch: to get there, you've gotta ford a number of lame bounce metal tracks from some of the band's mediocre records, and the general quality of chosen material throughout the 13 cuts cycles back and forth between classic and nearly intolerable.
"Necroshine" (from the 1999 album of the same name) and "Thunderhead" (off Bloodletting) are a pretty poor choice to kick off this order, and to be honest with you they sound even more like lame examples of throwaway 90s groove metal in the live setting than their studio counterparts. Boasting some of the most uninteresting chord progressions in the band's entire catalog, which belong more to any random Machine Head/Pantera jump da fuc up bar band than the black and green, they hardly breed much anticipation for what follows. Thankfully, Blitz' presence is cutting and focused enough that you can, with some level of perseverance, make it nearer the middle of the disc where songs like "I Hate", "Shred" and "Deny the" fuckin' "Cross" await your attention. Hilarious to me that these oldies sound so much tighter and driven than the newer material here; it's almost like the band just knows those are the money shots, and are shoveling the crap out of the way just to push a few records they're actually touring on at the merchandise table.
Still, not all the classics get a great treatment here. "E.vil N.ever D.ies" seems a little limp, "In Union We Stand" a bit dry and repetitious despite the fans' love and involvement, and every time I listen to this I almost blank out by the time the eponymous closer "Overkill" arrives. There's another sequence of newer material with a few From the Underground and Below Tracks ("Long Time Dyin'", "It Lives") which has its moments, and the rare performance of "The Years of Decay" is not too shabby (if you like the original), but ultimately "Deny the Cross" and "Shred" destroy every other song on this several times over, even the rest of the oldies, and it makes me wonder if placing "Electro-Violence", "Rotten to the Core", "Wrecking Crew" and a handful of other goodies in the set in place of....fucking "Battle" or the lamentable "Necroshine" would not have improved it?
Despite my disdain at a few of the set choices, though, Wrecking Everything Live at least sounds decent. You get all of Blitz' great banter between the performances, and the guy sounds great singing. The backing vocals are pathetic, from the overbearing grunts to the flimsier single lines, but the bass is incredibly full sounding and the guitars juicy and thick, a double-edged sword as it makes some of the banal grooves on the newer tunes sound even more goofy. I'm just faced, once again, with the plain fact that my fallout of interest in Overkill throughout the 90s renders another of their live albums 'not really for me', while I'm sure some dude in a wifebeater and who crushes beer cans on his forehead while hailing W.F.O. and Necroshine as the greatest thrash albums of the 20th century will get his money's worth. You win some, you lose some, I just wish I hadn't bought the season pass.
Overkill latest live album is one of "those" recordings. You know which ones. You put in the cd for the first time, listen to a few songs. Then take out the disk. Clean your room of any breakables. Put on a metal shirt, if you weren't wearing one. Then crank the son of a bitch and go into a metal frenzy!! I pity a person who has to listen to this and to sit still, this was meant for moshing and for self-inflicted injuries. Overkill is basically the thrash metal equivalent of Motorhead. Their live albums force you to stop what you are doing, tell your neighbours to stick it and start yelling together with the band and the crowd.
Overkill perform some of their best songs in front of a home crowd in NJ.
"Shall we continue with this madness?" Overkill know their audience. We want the sweetest kind of pain – the pain of being torn apart by riffs! Not every song tears into your body like a pride of starving lions, there is a ballad here too, "The Years of Decay". This how metal ballads should be done - genuine, that lull you into a sentimental daze and then ….decapitates you with a vicious fury!! Every song has something different and memorable. The common thread – metal of the catchy, genuine, pain-inflicting kind. I will just end up listing them all. By the time "Overkill" starts playing you will feel the meaning of "overkill seals your fate". Fuck everything else, there is nothing else I want to be doing right now, nothing else I want to hear right now, and if someone interferes with my frenzy of metal they are gonna feel the same pain that I do now!!
In closing, buy this right now – it is one of "those" albums after all.
I have seen overkill play live three times and this is not what they sound like at all. This album almost sounds like they took songs off their albums and put screaming fans over them. The place this was recorded at probally had better sound quality than the shit holes in nj I saw them at, so I will take that into consideration.
What I do Like about this album is it starts off strong with great tracks, which do sound a little better live on this album....but not by much. And the album ends strong. The last four songs are the best on this live record, because it has the most involvement with the audience, it actually sounds like the band is playing live, if the whole album were like this it would be amazing. The highlight of this album is The Years of Decay because is has a raw live sound to it. Also some other good moments are when blitz makes fun of nj and Tim.
What I don't like I kinda mentioned allready, the quality just seems to good, at times it does sounds like overkill albums on a stereo being played to a large room of fans. And my dislike for this sound comes only from me seeing them play live much better. So if you have seen them live don't expect to much from this album. Another Thing about this album is it seems to go into a slump between tracks 6-9. I usually skip those when listening to them.
If you haven't seen them live this album is very good, also its good for fans getting into overkill, because it has a nice selcetion of new and old.
Best songs on this album
-Years Of Decay
By it if your an overkill fan or want to know what are over kills best songs.
I have said it many times before and I will continue to say it many more times! Live albums make or break bands! And for this live album Over Kill definetly makes! Why is Over Kill one of the most popular bands to play live? This album is why. The sound quality on this album is excellent! Almost as good as a studio album! The musicianship is just excellent; no instrument over powers another. The riffs up to the drum beats are copied as if they came right off the real albums. Another reason why this live album kicks ass! Let me explain a bit: to many times have I seen bands come out with live albums and or compilations, only to throw all their new songs on them, rejecting the past stuff. This album does not do that at all. In fact Over Kill manages to take something from Bloodletting (there newest album) and something from their debut (Feel the Fire). This is awsome for two types of fans! This is great for the old fans because they get Over Kill blasting the new stuff and the old classics. This is also great for new fans becuase not only do they get the new stuff, but they get a feel for Over Kill's 80 years, which might lead them to listen and purchase all there other stuff. One more great thing about this album is the word "fuck". I started counting but lost count after 20. Blitz says fuck so many fucking times it is fucking unbelievable! Fuck I can't even say fuck that many fucking times without fucking up. FUCK! In conclusion, you won't be dissapointed with this album! It is a must for all metal heads!!!!
I actually saw Overkill live two days before they recorded this album. That was my 2nd time seeing the band, and I had always thought that they were the absolute best live band I've ever seen. Their first few live albums had done a decent job of capturing that sound, but somehow not quite as well as, say "Priest in the East" or "No Sleep 'til Hammersmith".
This is the album that gets it right. The production is absolutely impeccable - the mix a bit unusual, but very nicely done. The track selection is solid, though the DVD version does have Fuck You, among other things. Sorry, there goes 2 points right there. I love the official version, but I listen to the mp3s that I got ripped from the DVD more ;-) That one's got 23 tracks, which matches the setlist from when I saw them (except Feel the Fucken Fire and Hammerhead - I think they only played those two in Boston!), so that one I am guessing is complete (sort of, though the DVD also has Hello from the Gutter). Ah well, if you wanted the ultimate Overkill concert, it would be about 58 songs, at least.
Oh yeah, back to the album at hand. The official Overkill site has a sample (www.wreckingcrew.com) - it's "Evil Never Dies", and pretty much is a good representative of the whole album, so if you like that, you will definitely like the rest. Highlights: Deny the Cross (where did they pull that from???), Gasoline Dream (DVD only), Overkill, Bleed Me, oh the whole fucking thing.
Plain and simple, this is the best Overkill release yet. They join Slayer, Judas Priest, and others, in the big list of bands whose live albums are better than their studio efforts.

NEW YORK (AP) - Channing Tatum is People magazine's "sexiest man alive" for 2012.
The 32-year-old actor says his first thought on hearing the news was: "'Y'all are messing with me.'"
Tatum's film roles include "Magic Mike" and the upcoming "Foxcatcher."
Other actors who have received the "sexiest" label include George Clooney, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp and Ryan Reynolds. Last year's "sexiest man" was Bradley Cooper.
