NEW YORK (Real Money) -- Just ask the kids. I asked five kids Thursday while on my vacation about WhatsApp. They all said the same thing: It's the way to text when you are overseas. They were all proud WhatsApp users. They all told their parents how much money they were saving. They were thrilled that Facebook (FB) will now include it, and they will spend even more time on Facebook as their de facto homepage.
Then I thought about this company as an initial public offering and the reach and excitement it would create. I thought about the eyeballs internationally, thought about the potential to be a disruptive technology company for phone companies worldwide, thought about how it is still one more technology that is social, mobile, cloud and connective.
I realized, right then and there, that Facebook wanted to get on the right page of IPO history, the page that asks when WhatsApp opens on that first day of trading at a $30 billion market cap why Facebook, Google (GOOG), Apple (AAPL) or the pathetic Microsoft (MSFT) didn't buy it. Why didn't these oh-so-smart companies even think about how much of a game-changer WhatsApp would be? Here you have Apple and Microsoft buying back stock. While it has helped a little for both -- and I like Apple's way of being opportunistic and aggressive -- I sure wish Apple had bought Twitter (TWTR). I know Twitter. That was a no-brainer if it could have gotten Twitter at $10 billion. I think this deal, given how much money FB has and a decent valuation of its stock on 2016 earnings, was just as easy to figure out if you are from the subversive, totally linked younger generation that Facebook, and advertisers, want.
But let's give the naysayers their due. First, "I never even heard of it" was all over the place. I was one. Of course, I could have been using this service instead of paying a carrier a lot of money, so the "never even heard of it" reason is about as stupid as it gets when you think about it. Once you did hear of it you then said, "I wish I had used it."
Second objection: It has few employees and doesn't have huge revenue. That's the same as when Gilead (GILD) bought Pharmasset in November 2011. Gilead, a very good pharma company at the time, was transformed immediately into a great one because of the potential success of Pharmasset's hepatitis C formulation, its principal compound. Gilead paid $11 billion, or $137 per share, for Pharmasset, 89% above the previous closing price, even as the stock had risen 240% over the last year and the hep C formulation wasn't even through regulatory hurdles. Gilead was at $19. It is now at $82.

Tina Fey, Amy Poehler Respond to Taylor Swift's 'Special Place in Hell' Comment
Before you go out and buy a Team Taylor or Team Tina/Amy t-shirt, perhaps consider the idea that neither side is in the wrong.
Taylor Swift made arguably startling comments in a recent interview with Vanity Fair magazine in response to Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's jokes about her love life at the Golden Globes. "Katie Couric is one of my favorite people, because she said to me she had heard a quote that she loved, that said, 'There's a special place in hell for women who don't help other women'," Taylor told the magazine, which claims the singer's statement was made in response to both the awards show incident and "mean girls in general."
The Golden Globes hostesses — who, ironically, starred in the blockbuster hit, "Mean Girls" — have responded to the VF article, with Amy expressing remorse and Tina getting a bit defensive.
"I feel bad if she was upset," Amy tells the Hollywood Reporter. "I am a feminist, and she is a young and talented girl. That being said, I do agree I am going to hell. But for other reasons. Mostly boring tax stuff."
But Tina stands by their Taylor tease, telling E! News, "If anyone was going to get mad at us, I thought it would be James Cameron. I did not see that one coming. It was a joke, it was a lighthearted joke."
In Tina's defense, their bit about Taylor dating younger men was indeed a lot more lighthearted than their James Cameron jab, among other roasts of several celebrities that night. During the Globes telecast, Amy admitted she was in the dark about the real-life "Zero Dark Thirty" story, "but when it comes to torture, I trust the woman who spent three years married to James Cameron." (The movie was directed by Kathryn Bigelow, one of Cameron's ex-wives.)
But in Taylor's defense, perhaps her fighting words to Vanity Fair were blown out of proportion. We have a hard time believing she'd use an interview to tell anyone, even in a roundabout way, to go to hell. This is the star who refuses to diss even evil ex-boyfriends in the press! The 23-year-old is absolutely meticulous about what she says in interviews, of which we at The Boot can attest firsthand. And let's face it, aside from her catchy tunes, part of the reason the whole world is in love with Taylor is how sweet and charming she comes across in interviews. So, as much as we respect and adore Vanity Fair, we'd be very curious to see the full transcript of this interview, including the reporter's words. What exactly was her question that prompted this harsh response? Did she bring up Tina's Golden Globes joke earlier on and then ask about "mean girls in general"? Or did Taylor's Katie Couric reference come in direct response to the Globes mention?
We want to give Taylor the benefit of the doubt, as she has proven time and again that she can take a joke. She may have just been giving the funny ladies a taste of their own medicine, as she did with Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood after their CMA Awards jab about her breakup with Conor Kennedy. When asked by the New York Times why viewers didn't see her reaction to that tease, she responded, "They don't pan to you if you're not laughing."
Just listen to any of her albums, and you'll find Taylor is a big believer in karma.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida coach Will Muschamp was extremely pleased at the turnout at the Gators' annual pro scout day early last month, when at least one representative from every NFL team was at Florida Field watching former Gators work out.
It was a much better experience than 2012, when the group of former players who stopped by the event the previous year was more talented than the group working out.
"That's how a pro day is supposed to look at Florida," Muschamp said. "If we continue to do a good job evaluating, recruiting, and developing our players, which we will, our pro days will continue to look that way."

C# An Object Reference is Required
I keep getting the "An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'POLLING_UTILITY.WorkWithRegistry.Read(string)'" error with the code below. I've tried a number of things based on what I can find in other posts, but don't seem to be able to quite get it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
class GatherInformation { public static void GatherInformation() { Console.WriteLine("Gathering Information..."); string windows_version = WorkWithRegistry.Read(@"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion"); } }
Which calls:
public class WorkWithRegistry
public string Read(string KeyName) { // Opening the registry key RegistryKey rk = baseRegistryKey ; // Open a subKey as read-only RegistryKey sk1 = rk.OpenSubKey(subKey); // If the RegistrySubKey doesn't exist -> (null) if ( sk1 == null ) { return null; } else { try { // If the RegistryKey exists I get its value // or null is returned. return (string)sk1.GetValue(KeyName.ToUpper()); } catch (Exception e) { // AAAAAAAAAAARGH, an error! ShowErrorMessage(e, "Reading registry " + KeyName.ToUpper()); return null; } } }

All replies
is POLLING_UTILITY is a function in another class..?
if yes then create a object of this class and then call this function
ClassName cls = new ClassName();
string windows_version = cls.POLLING_UTILITY.WorkWithRegistry.Read(@"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" );
POLLING_UTILITY is the namespace. I had the long reference beauce they were originally in different namespaces, but it can probably be removed now.
The formatting in the original post is a little hard to follow, so I just updated it to try to make it easier. The class is actually WorkWithRegistry for the Read function.
I now am receiving "A field initializer cannot reference the non-static field, method, or property POLLING_UTILITY.GatherInformation.wekReg.
The updated code is below:
class GatherInformation { WorkWithRegistry wrkReg = new WorkWithRegistry(); string windows_version = wrkReg.WorkWithRegistry.Read(@"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion"); public static void GatherInformation() { Console.WriteLine("Gathering Information..."); string image_version = ""; using (StreamReader rdr = File.OpenText(@"%SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\print.dll")) { image_version = rdr.ReadToEnd(); } } }When I included using POLLING_UTILITY, it was invalid...unless I'm putting it in the wrong place.
string windows_version = wrkReg.WorkWithRegistry.Read(@"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion");
Above code block has to be put in some method. you cannot call a method in class like this. This is exactly what the errror messsage says
Try something like
public void Do()
string windows_version = wrkReg.WorkWithRegistry.Read(@"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion");

Feature Focus
Prospect Tracker
With the minor-league seasons winding down, many are turning their attention more and more to prospects—both those who are likely to get called up and those who are still a ways away. Prospect Tracker was announced early in 2012, and some new features were added last season to make it even more powerful.
First, how to find this feature? Simply pull down the Prospects menu from the main navigation bar, and select "Prospect Tracker", as such:
A popular next step is to click on the "Top 101 Prospects" link, which shows 2014 stats (by default—the stats year can be changed) for all these top 101 luminaries:
The screenshots above are taken from the 2014 top 101 prospect lists. If you go to the Prospect Tracker page, you'll see leaders (across all levels) in various stats (below are shown the 2013 leaders, but both the top 101 season and the year of stats to display can be selected using the menus):
Also available are each team's top 10 list from 2014 (and all previous years). These are pre-season rankings, so Sano's Tommy John surgery isn't taken into account:
Features Introduced in 2013
Further, for those with teams in dynasty league formats (or who just like following a set group of players), Team Tracker teams are now available. Just select them from the dropdown menu when logged in:
The clean-up hitter of Prospect Tracker features, though, has to be the ability to look at any season's stats for any group of prospects. Simply select the year of prospect rankings in one menu, and then the year of stats in the other menu:
That's a quick walkthrough of Prospect Tracker, which really could be called "Prospect Tracker and Team Tracker for Minor-League Stats." Whatever alias it takes, readers have made it popular. If you haven't been aware of it until now, we hope you'll check it out and incorporate it into your regular BP routine. You can access Prospect Tracker through this link and through the dropdown menu accessible by mousing over the "Prospects" navbar button at the top of any BP page.

I notice that traded prospects have not moved organizations. I understand that not happening on the organization lists because that would require slotting them. But why not on the top-100 lists? That requires only changing the organization name.

Thanks for the input. We discussed this in the past, and of course you're right that it would be easy to do. The thought process was that it would be less confusing to keep the listed team, so when people are looking up a player, they don't mistakenly go to the wrong place.
Aug 14, 2014 07:07 AM
I thought maybe you did it because it would confuse minor league stats. After all, the minor league stats are tied to organization, and well, most of the stats so far have come from the old organization, not the new one. It would require organization and team for stats to separate and that won't be nice to do.
Aug 15, 2014 11:17 AM
This is a great feature. I like the 100 prospects list, and I have many team tracker teams - so there is value there too.
Aug 14, 2014 08:38 AM
Can you edit a custom tracker team? I have an old team with prospects that are no longer with my Dynasty squad i.e. traded or dropped, and would like to edit the prospects who I currently are tracking. Is there a way to edit the list of prospects I have or do I need to create a new team? If its the latter how does one add more custom team lists. Thanks for everything BP.
Aug 16, 2014 08:08 AM
Rob McQuown
BP staff
Sure! It uses the same teams you specify in Team Tracker, which you can edit or replace as desired. I ran a two-part Feature Focus on it last year, and will probably freshen it up and re-run this year. In the meantime, here's a link to the latter of the two from last year, and hopefully you'll find your answers within the two articles:

Ryan Leslie ft. Pusha T (of The Clipse) - Something That I Like
My immediate reaction to the title and guest feature of Ryan Leslie's new buzz record: "Huh. I guess Addiction wasn't just a catchy song concept." Surprisingly, the 'something' in Something That I Like refers not to Pusha T's infamously potent nose candy, but to the equally intoxicating charms of a certain female (okay, I was probably the only person surprised by that). Over his own ear-pleasing blend of chopped synth-strings and harpsichord, the NextSelection head honcho pays sung and rapped tribute to a chick so perfect he has to pinch himself to make sure he's not dreaming. The Clipse's Pusha T jumps on board to echo the emcee/singer/songwriter's sentiments on the back end, and his more laconic brand of braggadocio proves a perfect counterpoint to Leslie's starstruck bars. As the first glimpse of Leslie's yet-untitled sophomore album (due out this fall), STIL bodes very well—to my ears, it's easily official-single material. Does R-Lez have something even more appealing up his sleeve? I certainly hope so, but we'll have to wait and see.

Discussion in 'Yellow & Orange Tailgate' started by Kimmy, Jul 18, 2010.
40 more days till the lot opens and tailgating begins!
I am ready for the regular season! We dont really tailgate alot of the preseason games.
I've been ready for this my whole life!
Im dying of Ready!
I can't wait for the pre-season game at this point!!!
My truck is already loaded
Dude im ready for training camp,,,,
Thats there first step lol.
If you are not ready, listen to this podcast by 1560 and Bernard Pollard. Link from Texan's chick blog. Thanks Steph.
Texan Mojo is crazy thirsty ready.
I just acquired my Yellow parking pass for the season!
I am normally a Blue Lot guy....
Who is the "blue-crew" equivalent in the Yeller Lot?(this should start some debate!)
I'm sure I will have to go and see my Bretheren in the Platnium lot but I will need a closer tailgating local! I drive in from Austin and get there early some days and can kick back and enjoy some company and some good food and on time for kick-off on others and I chug a beer on the way to the stadium with the wife in tow...
Looking forward to meeting Y'all
Well, I don't know what "blue-crew" equivalent means, but HERE is a list of some fellow "Yeller Dwellers". This list hasn't been updated in a while but I plan to work on that these next 2 games.
talk to the preacher man he will set you on a 30 minute schedule God Bless
Shotgun 30 is a good one to hang with................

Love the Emergency Vehicle!
I'll get there some time around 4 and meander around, check out the new surroundings, swing by and introduce myself...
Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait!
Im glad someone finally responded, I was getting worried
"Blue-Crew" equivalent is good friends, good food and good football talk...Don't have speakers stacked to the lower atmosphere, can carry a conversation...I dunno how to explain it, just a good place to hang out before the games.
Thank you sir.

A Sporting Viewpoint: Game 7 showed Cavs not there yet
By Jim Horvath
Did you watch Game 7 of the NBA Finals last night? I did, and a big dose of reality hit me like a ton of bricks as the Lakers rallied to top Boston for their second-straight title.
The Cavaliers – LeBron James or no LeBron James – are nowhere near capable of the level of play showed last night in Los Angeles.
With everything on the line, the Lakers and Celtics went each other like their lives depended on it. With everything on the line, players were drawing charges, diving for loose balls, running down long rebounds and taking the ball to the hoop…strong. Yes, there were some 3-pointers going up, but most of the time plays resulted in determined drives and equally determined defensive stands.
I mean, even Rasheed Wallace was posting up low and taking the ball to the rack. When's the last time we saw that in crunch time from a Cavaliers team?
Let's go back in time and remember what we saw from our guys in wine and gold.
With everything on the line, the Cavaliers were content to sit back and chuck up 3-pointers. With everything on the line, the Cavs were allowing uncontested drives to the basket, letting the other team pick up the loose balls and getting mauled on the offensive glass.
Worst than that, with everything on the line, the Cavs were content to run out over a minute of the clock at the end of the game with a deficit of less than 10 points.
With everything on the line, Delonte West was nowhere to be found. With everything on the line, players were disappearing left and right, including you-know-who.
Last night, Kobe Bryant wasn't at his best. But he made up for it with tenacious defense and a strong showing on the boards with 15 rebounds. Those are the two phases of the game a player can control, so Bryant went to those when he was going a disastrous 6-of-24 from the floor.
Other players stepped up. Ron Artest had one of his best games of the playoffs with 20 points, many of those during the Lakers' second-half rally. And Pau Gasol was a madman who was not going to be denied inside: 19 points and 18 rebounds, not to mention a big block on Kevin Garnett in the fourth quarter.
Several Celtic players were putting it all on the line as well. Rajon Rondo showed that he could thrust the dagger into any team, not just the Cavaliers.
With everything on the line last night, players stepped up and gave it their all.
Can the Cavaliers look themselves in the mirror and say the same thing?
I think we all know the answer to that one.

Does anyone have any other suggestions before I spend my money.

The men who drafted the Westminster Confession believed, as do I, that a lifetime of celibacy for a man not specially gifted by God for that calling is an impossibility. They said:
"No man may vow to do any thing forbidden in the Word of God, or what would hinder any duty therein commanded, or which is not in his own power, and for the performance whereof he has no promise of ability from God. In which respects, popish monastical vows of perpetual single life, professed poverty, and regular obedience, are so far from being degrees of higher perfection, that they are superstitious and sinful snares, in which no Christian may entangle himself" (WCF 22.7).
Neither may he bind himself with a vow to a sin of omission -- as when men dedicated as Corban the resources needed to take care of parents (Mark 7:11). To vow celibacy outside the will of God is to wrong a future spouse. And last, he may not vow beyond his abilities to fulfill. It is a superstitious snare for a man to believe he can get along without a woman, absent an unusual gift from God.
So as a Protestant, I of course believe that it is long past time for the Roman church to lift the requirement of priestly celibacy, allowing priests to marry, along with other reforms. Unfortunately, in the current chaos, many of the voices calling for this particular reform are also calling for the "reforms" of allowing for expressions of homosexuality, feminism, and so on. We are in an age when Shift the ape has more influence than he ought to have.
In order to address these problems rightly and forthrightly, the next pope will need to be a brawler. It will not be enough for him to exude a saintly demeanor -- the last two popes had that, and the corruptions riddling the Roman church proceeded apace. This outcome is unlikely because this next reforming pope -- let us call him Dirty Harry -- would have to be selected by college of cardinals, among whom the foresaid corruptions are greatly advanced. For one small sample, take the recent resignation of Cardinal O'Brian in the UK.
If serious reforms are attempted, I anticipate the whole thing will blow up. If they are not attempted, I anticipate the whole thing will melt down. So why do I as a Protestant care which way it goes, up or down? For my Roman Catholic friends who are serious about their faith, such an event would present a dogmatic crisis, and for me not at all. But there are more kinds of crisis than crises of faith. The Roman Catholic church is immense, and if they fall to the forces of liberalism, I believe that things will fare badly for all Protestants, starting the following week.
In making the distinctions I am, I am taking the same line offered by J. Gresham Machen in his magnificent book Christianity and Liberalism. He there argues, persuasively to my mind, that liberalism is not a deficient expression of Christianity, but rather is not Christianity at all. It is unbelief simpliciter. He compared this to what he regarded as the sub-par Christianity of Romanism, but still recognizably Christian for all that. The forces of rot within the Roman communion, and the barbarian clamoring without, are not Christian in any foundational sense of the word.
Now I grant that the errors of conservative Romanism (such as the aforementioned requirement of priestly celibacy) opened many doors of opportunity to those looking for the chance to do what they are doing now. Sow the wind, and there will be times you reap the whirlwind. But whatever happens, I don't think we can argue that the results are irrelevant to Protestants. They are doctrinally irrelevant, but an event of great moment can easily be -- as far as doctrine goes -- neither here nor there.

Note: You still have time to enter this weeks Handmade Giveaway . Also, check out the great Happiness interview over at my other blog, iLashGirls and enter to win a free coaching session! Don't miss out on this wonderful opportunity to coach with Susan – you are going to love her!
A month or so ago I was reading some of my favorite food blogs and I came across a post on Fashionably Foodie– one of my favorite blogs and saw that Rachelle had posted a recipe for Pumpkin Pie Milkshakes. I usually love just about everything she posts but my first thought when I saw this post was – Yuck! Athough I love my milkshakes I don't like pumpkin pie and the thought of a piece of pie in a milkshake was just a little too wierd for me – sorry Rachelle.
Well, in October during one of my trips to Utah to see the college kids we had dinner at a little "hole in the wall" hamburger place in downtown Provo, right off Center Street, called Sammy's.
Sammy's had amazing hamburgers and great beer batter fries! Yum!
And also on the menu were Pie Shakes!. There they were again – what's the deal? I had never heard of Pie Shakes and now I had seen them twice within a few weeks!
Well – I couldn't let the opportunity pass me by and I ordered one. A oreo mint pie shake.
The presentation was great and it tasted great too! Pie Shakes – not too bad! And just in case you are wondering as my friend Sherra did – yes, they put the whole piece of pie in the blender with ice cream – crust and all!
So maybe Rachelle's recipe for Pumpkin Pie Milkshakes wasn't so strange after all?!
I decided I didn't want to wait until we had leftover Thanksgiving pumpkin pie to give it a try so – shhh – don't tell anyone, but I bought a frozen Sara Lee Pumpkin Pie! I baked the pie and then cut it into slices and froze it again.
I chopped up the frozen pie and threw it in the blender along with ice cream, milk and a little sugar and blended it up!
Guess what – Rachelle was right – it is awesome!! Remember, I don't even like pumpkin pie but a pumpkin pie milkshake is amazing!
Of course being the cook that she is, Rachelle made her pumpkin pie from scratch – including the crust! I am sure her pumpkin pie milkshakes were better than mine because of that but I have to say – the quick and easy version was pretty great too!
So when you have some leftover pumpkin pie this week – try something new! Pop it in the freezer and then make yourself a Pumpkin Pie Milkshake – you won't regret it!! The possibilities are endless – Banana Cream Pie Shakes, Chocolate Cream, etc….
One Year Ago: Taking Time for You
- 2 C vanilla ice cream
- 1 C milk
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 large slice pumpkin pie chopped and frozen (can be used unfrozen also)
- Whipped cream and nutmeg for serving
- Combine ice cream, milk and sugar in blender.
- Mix.
- Add in pumpkin pie, pulse to blend.
- Put blender in the freezer for a half hour.
- When ready to serve, stir and scoop with a big spoon into mugs. serve with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg

NSC to set up 'seed fund' to encourage innovation: chairman
The China Post news staff Monday, July 30, 2012, 12:39 am TWN
The National Science Council (NSC) plans to set up a "seed fund" of about NT$200 million to NT$300 million to encourage innovation, which is key to raising the nation's competitiveness, said council Chairman Chu Ching-yi in an interview with the Central News Agency.
"The seed fund is currently in its preparatory stage and will be available once the related rules and regulations come up," he said.
According to Chu, Taiwan used to be an "efficiency-oriented" economy, taking a firm foothold in different parts in the world with its ability to raise productivity and lower cost. Yet with the trend of globalization and competition from China and Southeast Asia where cost is lower, the need for Taiwan to transform its economy has gained urgency, he said.
The NSC is now working to help Taiwan transform into an innovation-oriented economy, where "good intellectual property (IP) can translate into good initial public offering," he said.
He said during the initial stage of IP development, however, things can look murky and uncertain, causing venture capitals to be hesitant to provide assistance.
This is where the government comes in, he said.
"Suppose you have some 100 IP projects, each of which carries certain risk," he said. "The government will diversify that risk by putting a few million dollars into each project. This way the investment yield will still be positive."
On concerns specific groups or individuals will profiteer from the fund, Chu said he will devise a mechanism in which winners of the money will be selected through an evaluation process.
He also dismissed the presumption that whenever a fund is set up, it is thought to be a way to benefit specific groups or individuals.
"Let me use Morris Chang, CEO and chairman of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. as an example. Suppose Chang works in a foreign country, and the government asks him to come back to pick an investment project from 100 candidates. Since we can't afford to pay him, we put him as a nominal shareholder in each of the firms. Suppose the project he picks is a cash cow, then Chang gets tons of money. If the project fails, then Chang doesn't lose, since he didn't put any money up front."
"If you call this 'profiteering,' I can't agree with that line of thinking," Chu said. "The salary that Chang gave up when he came back to Taiwan was his loss. If you continue to have the mentality that someone needs to pay first to qualify for not being a profiteer, then you won't find anyone in the world to help you do what you do."

text: When I create a DOM document using Sax2.FromXml, all attributes are created in an empty namespace using setAttributeNS. Since 4DOM maintains 2 dictionnaries (one for namespaceless attributes using the attribute name as a key, and one for the namespaced attributes using (uri,atributename)), this means that I cannot retrieve my attributes using getAttribute, even if no namespace was specified in the XML text (am I clear?). I somehow feel that a setAttributeNS'ed attribute should be accessible with getAttribute if the namespace was empty, but this is not specified in the DOM2 spec. What the spec says is that getAttribute retrieves attribute by name, so I do not see why it should not find an attribute that has no namespace. -- Alexandre Fayolle http://www.logilab.com - "Mais oł est donc Ornicar ?" - LOGILAB, Paris (France).

The annual Breakfast with Santa gathering at the NYA Pavilion is coming up on Dec. 7.
The event, sponsored every year by the NYA West Carver Lions Club, is making some significant changes this time.
One change is that tickets will no longer be required for guests to attend and spend time with Santa and Mrs. Claus, have pictures taken with the beloved North Pole celebrities, or for children to receive a gift bag of holiday treats.
Another change is that the Lions are returning to the tradition of offering a hot meal.
Pat Clark, a charter member of the NYA West Carver Lions and perennial volunteer at the Breakfast since its inception over 15 years ago, feels strongly that the Lions resume focus on the breakfast portion of the event.
"Breakfast with Santa is very near and dear to my heart," said Pat, "and I know that our planning committee wants to emphasize attributes that made it so special years ago to guests who are now adults bringing their own children."
A breakfast consisting of eggs, McDonald's grillers, sausage, applesauce, bananas, orange juice, regular or chocolate milk, and coffee will be available for purchase from 8:30 to 11 a.m.
The breakfast is optional, as some guests may be uninterested in eating due to the excitement associated with the thought of meeting Santa and Mrs. Claus and sharing holiday wish lists.
The fun begins when the doors open at 8:30 a.m. with children greeted by Sugarplum Fairies (our community's Stiftungsfest Princesses).
Santa and Mrs. Claus arrive at 9 a.m. by special escort (a surprise). Children waiting for their turn to talk with Santa can work on holiday art projects.
Drawings for raffle prizes will occur during the event. Once the children finish visiting with Santa and Mrs. Claus, they will receive gift bags as they depart. The event concludes at 11 a.m.
Breakfast with Santa is put on by the NYA West Carver Lions Club for our community. The Lions also receive a great amount of help from local businesses to ensure this event is a success.
As last year, guests able to do so are encouraged to bring a donation for the NYA food shelf. Parents and grandparents, aunts and uncles, please remember to bring your cameras.
Breakfast with Santa scheduled for Dec. 7

Fruit of the Loom, parent company of Russell Athletic, yesterday joined Adidas, Knights Apparel, and Top of the World as the fourth college-logo apparel company to sign the Bangladesh Safety Accord, an agreement between unions and brands that will transform the Bangladesh garment industry from deathtraps to safe workplaces. USAS commends Fruit of the Loom for helping lead the way among major U.S. apparel producers to protect the safety of Bangladeshi garment workers who sew university apparel.
In the last month, Duke University, University of Pennsylvania, New York University, and Temple University have formally required their apparel brands to sign the Accord as a condition of producing university apparel, in response to USAS's "End Deathtraps" campaign. Brands like VF Corporation and MJ Soffe are still refusing to sign the Accord and take responsibility for the safety of garment workers who earn $68/month to generate billions of dollars of profit for these companies.
Fruit of the Loom's decision to sign the Accord also coincides with news of continued strides in Honduras, where Fruit of the Loom is the country's largest private employer. Four years ago, the CGT union federation and Fruit of the Loom negotiated a precedent-setting agreement in which the company agreed to recognize its workers' union at the new Jerzees Nuevo Día factory and to adopt union neutrality at all of its Honduran plants. Building on this agreement, workers at Jerzees Buena Vista signed a union contract in October that will raise workers' wages far above competitors like Gildan and Hanes who also operate in Honduran free trade zones. Meanwhile, workers at Fruit of the Loom's VFI plant are in negotiations for a third union contract.
These victories represent a significant advance for workers rights in a fiercely anti-union garment industry where many large apparel companies insist it's simply not possible or too complicated to respect workers rights. But despite these victories, Bangladeshi garment workers continue to work in deathtrap factories contracted by companies that have refused to sign the Accord. Students are vowing to redouble their campaign efforts this coming semester until every other college-logo brand producing in Bangladesh follows the lead of Fruit of the Loom, Adidas, Top of the World and Knights Apparel by signing the Accord.

I am getting implants for two reasons. One to help lift up my natural breasts and of course to give me breasts again. I am small 32 B, 5'2", 107lbs, small frame. I did breastfeed and had a total hyst-on premarin replacement. I have see several PS MD and all feel that I don't need a breast lift but would great results with implants. My question is -if I have implants placed under the muscle then will my breast/nipple have a great chance that they may still droop? Thanks for your advice.
Will my Natural Breast Still Droop if the Implant is Placed Under the Muscle?
Doctor Answers 5
Implants DO NOT prevent future breast drooping
Your breasts will droop after an implant is placed under the muscle. That is the reason a new technique has been developed called The Augmentation with Ultimate Lift. This technique uses a circumareola approach (around the nipple) that allows placement of the implant retro-pectoral, elevation of your remaining breast tissue and elevation of your nipple. The advantage of this technique is all 3 are elevated to the same level which maximizes projection. The technique was developed specifically for people who have drooping breasts, to improve breast shape and provide long term stability.
Best of Luck,

Breast lift with implants?
Implants will not lift your breasts, they will make them fuller. Without an exam, it is difficult to tell you what would be best for you. Good luck.
Breast droop over implants
With a submuscular augmentation the breast can indeed droop over the surface of the implant. This can be reduced if the implant is large enough to fully fill out the skin envelope so that the implant and breast fit together hand in glove. This way they will feel and move together as one, a more natural result over all.

Will my Natural Breast Still Droop if the Implant is Placed Under the Muscle?
Yes, breast tissue can still droop over time while the implants remain locked into position by the inner scar bra we call a capsule. It does not matter if the implant is under or over the muscle if your surgeon uses the dual plane submuscular technique as most surgeons do. That does not mean you, in particular, will have that problem. Not everyone does. But it is a possibility.
Will implants work for drooping breasts

DH has booked himself a hooker. Awesome. Help me fast.(270 Posts)
named changed for obvious reasons.
I'm going to sound cold and clinical but thats only because I am trying to hold it together. I have no friends nearby who I can tell this to.
I need advice fast. I have been trying to hold it together for the last few hours but Im not sure how much more I can manage. Just found out DH has booked a high class hooker for Wednesday night. Sounds easy to leave. Not really.
DH and I have been together for a long time and he is currently dealing with depression (on ADs) and a drink problem (just found out it was worse than I thought and that he'd been hiding the extent of it from me). I also knew he watched porn but thought it was within 'normal' behaviour for a male. We've had some fantastic years together but frankly the last few have been pretty difficult and I have been very lonely and worried about our relationship.
Today I was out in the car with DH, the kids and FIL and MIL. I had his phone in the back seat as mine was flat and I don't know what made me do it but I checked his emails. He has booked a hooker for Wednesday night (when he is away on a business trip). I looked the webiste up later and she cost 500-800 pounds. I just saw the request as in .." is so and so available for a hour or two on wednesday night?. Saw no reply but it looks like a lot has been deleted as there were only a few messages in the inbox.
We live overseas and me and the kids will need to be repatriated back to our country. We dont have that much in the way of savings. He earns a good income and I of course gave up my job to come overseas. So the outlook is pretty bleak in the short-term for me.
I have the PILs in the house for another week. What do I say, do? Numb with shock. I can't even look at him I am so disgusted I did take a photo of the email. Do I wait till he's gone on the business and then email that I know? Or have it out tonight and let the PILs hear it all??? I guess a trip to the clinic is in order as I have no idea if he has done this before
Advice please and fast.
re all this booking prostitutes online, along with all these claims by men to make fantasy bookings, surely any business in this area would insist on taking a deposit prior to confirming any booking?
Otherwise you would have prostitutes & porn stars turning up to all these "fantasy addresses" for dates with mythical punters. I can't imagine they wouldn't address time wasters (as they are apparently so very common) in their ^ ahem^ business model.
OP can you see if any payment has gone out of his account around the time of the email? It won't be under an obvious name.
I have no idea what a deposit for a £500-£800 pound booking would be. In my line of business (music) we always ask for 50% up front.
lolly im a woman in a sexless marriage but i would NEVER consider using a male escort. And we had a man on here a couple of months ago who said he was in a sexless marriage but he drip fed that he was having sex with his wife twice a month.
Being as i am in a genuinely sexless marriage with a DH that hasnt touched me for 17 years it fucking winds me up when the term is used so flippantly.
lolly that is dreadful! What a shock!
OP...has he said anything else?
If he hasn't, I don't think you'll ever get the truth without digging for it yourself. He has the chance to come clean and try to rebuild this, but he's keeping the skeletons in his closet, and only reacting to what he thinks that you know.
I'd call his bluff, and pretend to know everything; be very quiet, don't fill silences and don't let on what you know. Just let him talk his way into a hole, and don't react. He'll fill the silence, and then you can walk away (or fight this out) knowing everything.
If he can't give you that, than I don't think you've got anything to save.
For what it's worth, it may well be the case that he's contacted the prostitute about you emailing, or that they are booked that night (with your husband) and therefore want you to call so that they can talk you into using a different prostitute/a different time/etc.
You may be able to get them to talk to you about your husband, but he's the client and they make money from him, so they'll likely refuse to talk to you. It would also become a very sad state of affairs if you have to hear it from the prostitute herself.
Have you checked his bank statements? Searched his email inbox? Is it possible that he has another email/phone?
Oh and btw Approaching just to save you some wear and tear on your fingers... the lack of sex in my situ aint down to me. I had an OM for 4 and a half years.
Sorry for going off on a hijack OP
Message deleted by Mumsnet for breaking our Talk Guidelines. Replies may also be deleted.
I have been 'contacted' before by men online, and had a pretty distressing experience when I was 15 and it turned out the person I was talking to and was pressing me to meet was much much older than me, 57. I got the impression that you were here to 'pick up' darkness, sorry if not.
You say 'I never never wanted to end up having to buy sex'. You dont have to do anything. No one is forcing you. Whilst I have some sympathies for your situation, it still does not justify your actions against your wife, however you may try to skirt responsibility and convince yourself of this. I think you need to talk to your wife more, if I thought that my OH was even considering resorting to paying for sex, I would certainly step up my game! But if she is asexual and simply does not want it, ever, then she needs to know what you would be/are willing to do to get it. That way she can either choose to give her blessing to you or walk away from the relationship. Maybe you werent in therapy long enough, or maybe you werent with the right therapist. Sounds like the subject is the elephant in the room. I bet she feels it too, and starting that conversation wont be half as difficult as the conversation whereby she has found out you pay prostitutes for sex.
I hope you are ok OP and are getting time to think things through. I dont know how much can be gained from finding out whether he made the appointment or not, I have searched online and there do seem to be 'time wasters' who contact these hookers just for sad kicks. But if you did want to know I agree with the person who suggested asking a male to phone and confirm, or checking his bank accounts. If you called though there could be crossed wires and you may end up with the wrong impression. I have a feeling you will end up sticking with H and working through it- if thats what you want then all the best, I hope you are strong enough to know what is right for you and your kids xx
I sort of understand where darkesteyes is coming from as my poor dh doesn't get regular sex as I have mental health issues which have lead to a lack of sex drive . I do worry about the effect this has on him up. However it is not acceptable for him to have sex behind my back . What are they meant to do? I hope you are okay op as we haven't heard from you for a while .
spanky in my case my Dh has disabilities. But hes had those for seven years and hasnt wanted me for 17.
I found a sexless marriage forum recently which discusses whether situations like mine are abusive.
Sorry to hijack so much OP How are things now? Im with Caja on this. You wont get anything like the full truth without digging for it.
Thanks for asking after me. Its been a strange time. i'm not reacting the way I thought I would (ie hardly any crying etc) , I just feel numb. I cant wait to get away this weekend. DH has gone away for work and I will be gone before he gets back. I really need some solitude and some time to think through whats happened. I've just booked into a hotel with a pool where the kids can hang out and i can just sit and think. 17 yr old Ds is staying with a friend, I haven't told her anything, but she knows something is up
I'm shifting constantly in my thinking. Its hard to reconcile whats happened to the man he used to be. I know that depression and alcohol have been a factor and that he is addressing them so part of me dosen't want to blame him completely due to these issues.
Then I'll think 'he's just shitting me" and playing me for a fool and I'll start thinking of leaving again.
Today he emailed the escort agency and bcc me in asking to confirm his booking... to prove that he didn't have one. I don't even know what I think about that yet.
I asked him to think about how being honest he is being with me. He says he is utterly and that I know all his secrets now and that the worst of his secrets were actually around the drinking. I just asked that he think over the next couple of days that the one thing he can give me now is the honest truth and let me decide what to do based on that.
He asked again if I wanted him to come this weekend and I said no. I don't know what I will decide (really don't). I know I need some space to decide that though on my own.
Thanks again guys. With no one here to talk this over with, I have really appreciated hearing your kind and wise words.
nogoingback Its understandable that you feel confused. And i understand the numb thing. You end up emotionally detatching to prevent being hurt any more.
You deserve more.
OP don't put yourself under any pressure to make a quick decision. Its really good that you have the weekend to yourself- but you dont need to have decided by the end of that. Of course you are all over the place with your thoughts and I understand the going backwards and forth. You may need longer than you think/hope to become clearer. Don't let him rush you in any of this, do it in your own time.
OP, I have an idea......feel free to ignore, but i presume there are things you'd rather spend £800 on than him getting his leg over, so rain on his parade. Call the number they gave you in the email and tell them his name and email address and tell them he is being followed by a PI and that if he hooks up with one of their prostitutes the police will be involved. They will run a mile - they don't need the hassle.
Hotel sounds good, just take some time for yourself, but as others have said, don't feel you have to come back with a decision immediately. In my experience sometimes you can't decide what to do, you do one thing, that feels wrong so you end up with the other option- the decision will evolve. You might feel differently in six months. Hope it goes ok, what an awful week for you.
The email tactic though gives him the capacity to lie and say they have not emailed back, again. The bcc doesn't mean you would get any reply, so he could just delete a reply that says something inconvenient.
Agree with the posts telling you to take your time over all this. Don't let him pressure you into having to say it's all fine now if it's not.
What did you decide? Are you okay ?

Fresh Air - air conditioning tips for your boat
No boat owner wants to find themselves mid-cruise in 40 degree heat without a functioning air conditioning system so here's a three-point checklist to ensure smooth running of air conditioning systems.
One of the world's leading suppliers of marine air conditioning systems, Dometic Marine, called upon its expert engineers and team members to provide some basic preventative tasks that boat owners can carry out to avoid unforeseen problems mid-cruise and the possibility of large repair bills.
Leisure boaters can enjoy hassle-free family days out on the water if basic maintenance tasks are carried out regularly. Not only will this frequent upkeep prolong the operational life of the A/C unit, but help to avoid a complete system shut-down in the most inconvenient of situations - worst case scenario, but expensive should it occur.
To ensure a pleasantly cool on-board environment as well as mould, dampness and rot reduction, self-contained A/C units needs a little tender loving care from time to time and summer is the most logical time of year to give the system a thorough check.
As owners prepare to use their boat more frequently during the summer, it is important to ensure everything is in good working order to prevent unlikely system failure. The most common cause of an A/C system failure is blocked water and air flow but fortunately, this is easily preventable with our three point checklist.
If the seawater circuit is not properly maintained, the amount of heat transferred will be reduced and this can create the same condition as purchasing a system that is too small to cool the space. To avoid this, the seawater strainer should be checked for debris that may have been brought in by the raw water and removed. On average, the A/C unit should be checked monthly during the summer months, but this will vary depending on the quality of water that a boat sails or cruises in.
Inspect and clean your return air filter which is located on the blower/evaporator assembly. There may also be an air filter built into the return air grill assembly. This will need cleaning as well. Lastly, use fresh water to test that a full condensate pan on the blower/evaporator assembly will drain away within 30 seconds.
All of the systems fixings and electrical connections should be checked and tightened if needed to make sure they are secure. It is also important to check the hoses, coils and other piping for leaks and repair if necessary.

For fans of Tana French and Gillian Flynn, The Gates of Evangeline is the addictive first book in a fantastic new crime series that will have you guessing until the very end.
When grieving mother and New York journalist Charlie Cates begins to experience vivid dreams about children after her only son passes away, she's sure that she's lost her mind. Yet she soon realizes these are not the hallucinations of a bereaved mother. They are messages and warnings that will help Charlie and the children she sees - if she can make sense of them.
The disturbing images lead her from her home in suburban New York City to small-town Louisiana, where she takes a commission to write a true-crime book based on the case of Gabriel Deveau, the young heir to a wealthy and infamous Southern family, whose kidnapping 30 years ago has never been solved.
There she meets the Deveau family, none of whom is telling the full truth about the night Gabriel disappeared. And as she uncovers long-buried secrets of love, money, betrayal and murder, the facts begin to implicate those she most wants to trust, and her visions reveal an evil closer than she could have imagined.

Overly dramatic reading. Central mystery was very easily guessed early on. Most of the peripheral issues were pretty obvious too. That said, there was a certain pull to the story.

With just a few weeks until the start of the Olympic Games in London, disabled spectators are being reminded to make sure they plan their travel to venues as soon as possible.
The Olympic Delivery Authority, the London Organising Committee, Transport for London (TfL), Network Rail and the Association of Train Operating Companies are advising everyone to make sure they book rail travel now as well as any Blue Badge parking.
Peter Hendy, London's transport commissioner, said: "The London 2012 Games will be the most accessible ever held and we've invested to improve accessibility across London's transport network.
"Our staff and travel ambassadors will be on hand to assist people travelling to events and around London, but it is vital that all spectators – particularly those with accessible transport needs – plan their journeys and, if necessary, book their travel in advance."
Anyone enjoying London hotel deals during the Games can use the London 2012 website to work out the best journey between their accommodation and the Olympic venues.
Those lucky enough to be enjoying a stay in Montcalm London hotels and to have tickets for the Games, will be able to take advantage of the free Games Travel card.
The card will be valid on public transport in London's travel zones on the day of the ticketed event and can be used on London Underground, London Overground, Docklands Light Railway, buses, trams and National Rail services as well as the special Javelin service between St. Pancras and Stratford International stations.

It took regulation, overtime and seven rounds of a shootout, but the Rockford IceHogs completed two weekend victories with a 2-1 shootout win over the visiting Lake Erie Monsters. Brad Mills' successful attempt past Calvin Pickard provided the winning margin after Carter Hutton stopped Carl Stollery to end the contest.
It really was a battle of opposing net-minders, with Hutton making 35 saves on 36 Lake Erie attempts. Hutton was named the game's first star.
Pickard stopped 40 of the 41 shots he faced, the lone goal coming via a Kyle Beach power play goal in the final minute of the first period. The tally, which was assisted by Brandon Pirri and Jeremy Morin, tied the score at a goal apiece following Paul Carey's goal midway through the first.
Both teams had a slew of scoring chances throughout the last 40 minutes, though what many folks will be talking about was what happened in the second intermission.
This season, the IceHogs have introduced a third Zamboni, sponsored by Butitta Brothers Automotive, which treats fans who pay for the privilege a cruise around the ice between periods. As the service Zambonis were resurfacing the ice midway through the intermission, the passenger Zamboni came to a stop on the right faceoff circle of the Rockford zone.
The arena staff brought out a can of whatever a Zamboni runs on to no avail. They lowered what appeared to be a battery charger from the catwalk, but still no movement. One of the other Zambonis attempted to tow it's comrade off the ice but it wouldn't budge.
By this time, the start of the third period had been delayed several minutes. The players, who were waiting in the tunnel, were sent back to their respective dressing rooms. At this point, the fans who had been sitting on a stalled out Zamboni were being readied for evacuation. Fans roared as Beach, Pirri, Brandon Svendsen and Ben Youds came onto the BMO Center ice and assisted the fans off the playing surface.
After the game had been delayed for about 20 minutes, someone came out with must have been a full canister of propellant. This time the Zamboni came to life and made its way off the ice.
To summarize, the game was delayed because the Zamboni ran out of gas. A Zamboni sponsored by an automotive shop to boot.
Fortunately, Rockford's skaters still had something in the tank and were able to outlast the Monsters for the fourth time this season. Matched with a 7-2 win over Abbotsford Saturday night, Rockford pulled to within a game of the .500 mark and kept some hope of climbing back into contention for a playoff spot.

I have been a contractor for the past 10 years which I have been so lucky to win and execute many contracts both locally and internationally. I got involved in a contract in Germany sometimes ago and after successfully executing this contract, my payment was refused, I was not paid. I was down and almost lost hope.
Three years after this contract, I prayed to God for the release of my contract payment. I also made a vow to GOD to give and benefit someone with the sum of Four Hundred and Fifty Thousand United States (USD $450,000.00) if my payment could be approved. To my surprise, I was called upon by the Germany Government last month that my contract file has been looked into and it has finally been approved for payment. I never believed it until I was advised by my Pastor and later moved down to Australia and to my, surprise I was paid this money.
As a strong believer of GOD and who strongly believes in pledges and vows, I never forgot my pledge to give out the sum of USD $450,000.00 to somebody. With the help of some Computer Engineering associates, I did email ballot to get the beneficiary of this money and luckily for you, your email address was chosen which automatically makes you the winner and beneficiary of my pledge which is Four Hundred and Fifty Thousand United States (USD$450,000.00).
I want to use this medium to congratulate you and I will like you to contact my secetary, Mr. Idris Cheriton on how to receive your money ($450,000.00) as I am still presently in Germany.

My principle project at the Edinburgh Fringe this year is an exciting new collaboration between myself & social gaming legends Hide and Seek. It's supported by Escalator East to Edinburgh, Arts Council England and the Jerwood Foundation. We've been putting on the finishing touches over the last month, and finally it's ready to LAUNCH.
Hinterland is a long poem, hidden in four locations across the city of Edinburgh. Anyone that goes looking for the poem will have a different experience. The poem responds to your actions, changing every time.
In order to hear the first canto of the poem, you must collect a free booklet of instructions from the Forest Fringe (Bristo Place, Edinburgh).
These instructions will ask you to find a particular kind of stranger; a random person, somewhere in Edinburgh, with a particular skill. Maybe you'll bump into someone that can help straight away. Maybe you wont meet them for days. Either way is fine. There's no rush.
Once you've found them, you and the stranger must work together to answer a couple of simple questions about yourselves. When the awkward conversation is finally over, you phone up our special phone number and leave your answers with our operator.
A few minutes later, we send you back the first canto of Hinterland, which you can listen to on your phone. Once complete, you can return to the Forest Fringe for Canto 2.
The poem responds to the answers you collect, using your experience in exciting, unexpected ways. The more Cantos you collect, the more the Hinterland seems to know you. Each new canto leads to new jeopardy, leading you deeper into the world of the Hinterland: a landscape built from misunderstandings, invisible borders, crossed lines and untranslatable sayings.
COME VISIT US AT THE FOREST FRINGE, BRISTO PLACE, 12-6pm, 15-27 August.

Name of snowboarder killed in avalanche near Cameron Pass released by authorities
March 4, 2013
An avalanche that took place Saturday, March 2, in the Paradise Bowl near Nokhu Crags on the west side of Cameron Pass resulted in a fatality after catching and burying two skiers. The deceased has been identified by the Jackson County Sheriff's Office as Joe Philpott, 26, of Fort Collins. This is the fourth avalanche related death in Colorado for the 2012 to 2013 winter season.
The surviving man was identified as Alex White, 24, who was airlifted to the Medical Center of the Rockies for injuries sustained during the incident. White was fully buried for approximately three hours until Jackson County Search and Rescue recovered the man. He is reportedly making a good recovery after the incident.
The Jackson County Sheriff's Office received the report of the incident at 1:15 p.m., said Jackson County Sheriff Scott Fischer, and White was recovered at 4:13 p.m. White was reported as wearing an Avalung, a device used to aid backcountry skiers in delaying asphyxiation after being buried in an avalanche, though it was unclear if he had the device in his mouth during the full time he was buried, said Scott Toepfer a mountain weather and avalanche forecaster for the Colorado Avalanche Information Center.
Colorado Avalanche Information Center investigators visited the avalanche site on Sunday and will release a full report of the incident after the completion of the investigation.
Preliminary reports of the incident indicate the slide was very large and could have been triggered by one of the skier's dog, which was following them while they were skiing, according to Toepfer. The avalanche was triggered after both skiers were reported as making it to what is considered the bottom of the run.
The avalanche occurred near treeline on a east/southeast facing slope. The crown of the avalanche was reported to be from one to six feet in spots with the avalanche being an estimated 1,200 feet wide. The avalanche ran approximately 400 to 500 feet vertically, breaking trees in its path.
Recommended Stories For You
Bad avalanche conditions are statewide, according to Toepfer. The Front Range zone has seen a continuing cycle of snow and wind with weather breaks in-between that have not allowed the weak layers near the bottom of the snowpack to strengthen. This makes avalanches dangerous as they can step down to old weak layers to create large and destructive avalanches.
"The snowpack is becoming touchier and more reactive with no indication that things will improve in the near future," Toepfer said. "It is a good winter to be cautious in the backcountry."

Now that we've arrived at the end of the century, one can glance back over the decades and pinpoint the influential titans who shaped the music we hear in our heads, homes, and Walkmans: Robert Johnson. Hank Williams. Muddy Waters. The Beatles. Bob Dylan. And New Kids on the Block.
Yes, that's a joke — or is it? The current invasion of dance-happy, earnestly harmonizing boy bands owes a huge debt (or at least an extra large tube of Oxy) to the New Kids, five Boston teens who were transformed by producer-songwriter-Svengali Maurice Starr into an adenoidal money machine in the '80s. All the ingredients that constitute a typical Backstreet Boys or 'N Sync hit can be glimpsed in the New Kids' Greatest Hits, the first-ever overview of their recorded oeuvre. The contemporary style of reedy, lover-boy ballads like Backstreet Boys' "I'll Never Break Your Heart" is rooted in "I'll Be Loving You (Forever)," just as the concept of injecting black-music rhythms into white-bread teen pop (think: 'N Sync's "Tearin' Up My Heart") is heard in the tinny-machine electro-funk of "You Got It (The Right Stuff)." (Greatest Hits makes clear that Starr merely updated the Pat Boone formula — co-opting black music for white audiences — for a new generation.) When the current boy bands try to show off their hardened side, they rap; the New Kids, operating in the days before hip-hop was mainstream, preferred flaunting ersatz metal guitars ("Hangin' Tough"). What cargoes are to parachute pants, the Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees, 'N Sync, and Boyzone are to New Kids.
Besides an inevitably short shelf life, New Kids (who collapsed after one last album in 1994) share one other element with their late-'90s heirs: Their success had more to do with the marketing of a teen-dream fantasy than the music itself. As Greatest Hits repeatedly demonstrates, Starr had about, oh, two memorable moments in him: "Step by Step," whose propulsive chorus makes you forget the song's lame "step one…step two…" midsection, and "Let's Try It Again," a well-crafted homage to '70s upscale harmonizers the Stylistics. Otherwise, the Kids were saddled with a string of cliched, mall-bland pop (and, in the genuinely strange "Tonight," their own slice of psychedelic pop — call it Sgt. Pimple's Lonely Hearts Club Band). Their legend stands tall, but their music still doesn't.
Slipped inside the Greatest Hits CD is a card promoting the first solo work by a New Kid — the artist formerly known as Joe (now Joey) McIntyre's Stay the Same. McIntyre may have added an extra letter to his first name to shave off a few years (he's 26), but he works overtime to convince us that he's beyond Kid stuff. One moment he's a Babyface-style balladeer ("I Cried," "Stay the Same"); the next, he makes like a grown-up new-jack love man cruising with his posse ("Give It Up," "Let Me Take You for a Ride"). Whatever it takes for a comeback, McIntyre's ready and willing. Want the retro-soul moves of Jamiroquai ("Because of You")? No problem! Need to hear pallid rap shout-outs in the songs? You got it! Crave the overemoting of a male diva ("Without Your Love") or a rewrite of the disco-era Frankie Valli/Bee Gees hit "Grease" ("We Can Get Down")? Comin' up!
In that sense, McIntyre — who just a few years ago forsook teen pop and was filming the starring role in an unreleased movie adaptation of the Off Broadway show The Fantasticks — is still a New Kid at heart, shamelessly plundering any number of soul styles. There's no doubt he's a pro: His singing and the overall presentation are effortless and assured. But even coming from a former New Kid, Stay the Same is an oddly hollow project. McIntyre may be in sync with the charts and the trends, but it appears as if he's still a stranger to himself.

By now you've surly heard of the Kickstarter to fund a Veronica Mars movie, organized by the cast (including star Kristen Bell) and creator Rob Thomas. The campaign launched yesterday and by last night, had broken records at the fundraising service, reaching its $2 million goal in a matter of hours. As of this writing it's currently amassed around $2.6 million, with 29 days left to go.
Of course, with a move like this, there are bound to be widely differing opinions. Critics and fans began the merits of the Kickstarter plan since the moment it launched, and with good reason. The near-immediate success of the campaign raises fascinating questions about contemporary TV/movie production, fandom, and the relationship between the two.
I love me some VM, but I'm wary of the precedent of this Kickstarter.If you like it, then you fund it.....twice!— Anne Helen Petersen(@annehelen) March 13, 2013
There are a number of possible positives to come from this. The first being, well, there's going to be a Veronica Mars movie. The rumors and rumblings about a potential film have been out there since The CW canceled the show and as the video on the Kickstarter page suggests, the cast (or at least a good chunk of the "important" ones) are totally committed to making the film work. The unbelievable speed at which Rob Thomas and company received donations suggests that there's still a big—or at least dedicated—fan base out there for the show, so even though I tend to wish that "There will be a movie!" and "We're doing another season on Netflix!" stories would just go away, I'm happy to know such fans exist for this good show.
To me: finding ways to leverage intense interest=more possibilities for creators. But totally get choice not to kick in for a studio movie— James Poniewozik (@poniewozik) March 13, 2013
Furthermore, if the produced film ends up being successful (and it has to be the film, too, not just the Kickstarter campaign), it's very likely that this presents a model for future canceled shows with diehard fan bases with disposable income. Fans and critics have knocked around the idea of fan-funded continuations of dead shows before, but a successful Veronica Mars film would lend major credence to that model. The success of the Veronica Mars crowd-sourcing campaign tells us (and Hollywood) that productions can come together in new ways based on what audiences already know that they want—not some property adaptation that's test-marketed and workshopped dozens of times until it's lifeless. We've already seen independent projects like Jane Espenson's Husbands web series funded through Kickstarter, and while I hope this Veronica Mars situation inspires more independent television, it's a different animal altogether. It could open the floodgates for other canceled shows to get movies, shorter web series, or who knows, full seasons of television-length content. It's a big moment for fan empowerment and intervention in traditional Hollywood production processes.
I don't see the downside of using Kickstarter for major-studio project. It helps support KS, which should help indies as well. (1/2)— Jason Mittell (@jmittell) March 13, 2013
As for fans as funders, we're basically just pre-buying merch, DVDs, or experiences. How is that unethical? (2/2) #VeronicaMarsMovie— Jason Mittell (@jmittell) March 13, 2013
However, there are other ways to look at this development and fan involvement within it. First, while VMars is a great test case for whether or not something like this can work financially (and we now know that it can), it's also probably an exceptional example of how it would work production-wise. Not only is the cast already on-board and working together to figure out scheduling barriers, but the story is dominated by one character/actor. With Bell on-board, Thomas can alter the story and his use of other performers depending on finances and scheduling to fit any budgetary concerns. Conversely, it'd be tougher to make a similar project happen for a show like, say, Community: bigger, busier cast and a story that kind of needs them all (well, not Chang or Pierce, but you know what I mean). There are similar challenges for shows with higher concepts or budgets (imagine a Kickstarter-funded extension of Terra Nova).
@admiralchristy Except it's not for the fans' sake...? It's to help offset risk of return for the media conglom that didn't see $$$ upside— Noel Kirkpatrick (@noelrk) March 13, 2013
And as Noel and others have pointed out on Twitter, asking fans to partially fund a production that is under the purview of Warner Bros., a massive media conglomerate, is complicated. Rob Thomas doesn't own Veronica Mars and as the Kickstarter page notes, Warner Bros. is still involved, at least in distribution. It's unclear at the moment how much money WB is going to kick in to help this thing get off the ground, but the campaign obviously exists to both secure more money that Warner Bros. doesn't want to pony up and to show Warner Bros. how much fan interest there is in the project once it's actually done. So fans probably aren't footing the whole bill, but rather a good portion of it. That makes some people uncomfortable, and I see that, but I guess if you want to give them money to get something you love, it's their right to ask you for it and your right to give it to them.
So basically I'm an asshole for questioning the motivation of the same system that canceled the show that's going to be a movie now.— Richard Lawson (@rilaws) March 14, 2013
But I want to turn it over to you folks. Did you donate to the campaign, and if so, why? What other projects (web series, spin-offs, movies, etc.) would you be willing to help fund? And which other canceled shows do you think have devoted enough fans to make another, similar Kickstarter'd project work?

have a 2008 chevrolet express. the left blinker flashes rapidly inside truck...no blinkers working on left side. no hazard lights . no reverse lights..checked fuses under hood didnt find any blow ..found #15 fuse under drivers seat blown.replaced it 3 times.(keeps blowing out).what can I try next.
Hello and welcome to Just Answer. Sorry about the delay in getting to your question. I will try and assist you.
Fuse 15 if for the reverse lights. It must be shorted out causing the fuse to blow. Since you also have not left turn signal I would suspect that the problem is in the left rear tail light area. I would start at the tail light following the wires forward looking for anything unusual. Where ever you come across a plug such as the tail light harness try unplugging it to help isolate the system.
Checked wiring... didn't find anything there. Could it be any kind of relay or somthing else? I have running lights on left side but nothing else.
