Warner Bros. has released the first two official images from their upcoming adaptation of the Vertigo comic book "The Losers". The film stars Zoe Saldana, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Chris Evans, Idris Elba, and Jason Patric, with everyone but Patric playing members of a CIA black ops unit that's betrayed and left for dead, only to resurface with a vengeance. Patric, it appears, will play the scummy CIA guy behind the betrayal. And let's face it, Jason Patric just has the face and the disposition for such a role. The film is due out in April 9, 2010 from Sylvain White, the guy who did "Stomp the Yard". Yeah.
Official synopsis:
Action Thriller. An explosive tale of double cross and revenge, "The Losers" centers upon the members of an elite U.S. Special Forces unit sent into the Bolivian jungle on a search and destroy mission. The team-Clay, Jensen, Roque, Pooch and Cougar -find themselves the target of a lethal betrayal instigated from inside by a powerful enemy known only as Max. Presumed dead, the group makes plans to even the score when they're joined by the mysterious Aisha, a beautiful operative with her own agenda. Working together, they must remain deep undercover while tracking the heavily-guarded Max, a ruthless man bent on embroiling the world in a new high-tech global war.

AnnaSophia Robb: I've got into fashion
AnnaSophia Robb "cares more about fashion" since she landed the role of a young Carrie Bradshaw.
The actress portrays fashionista Carrie Bradshaw in the TV series, which is based on the Sex and the City character's younger days.
The 19-year-old says hanging around the wardrobe area on set has proved fruitful for spicing up her own style.
"I've started to care a little more about fashion," AnnaSophia admitted to Us Weekly. "I'm starting to wear a lot more tights now. Carrie wears a lot of tights... and I'm starting to wear more patterns. Carrie doesn't really have a specific colour - it's more layering of different patterns and textures and eras together."
AnnaSophia described her personal style as being more like conservative dresser Miranda from the Sex and the City series.
The pretty blonde does mirror Carrie's eclectic fashion tastes when the occasion requires something special.
"It kinda depends on the day - on how much energy I have to put into it," she explained. "On New Year's I wore a big poufy white skirt, which is very Carrie... but most of the time I just like wearing stuff that's comfortable: boots and patterned jeans and big, comfy sweaters."
AnnaSophia recently admitted the role has also had an effect on her hair. She permed her locks to portray the character and loves having wild tresses.
"I love the curly hair," she gushed last month. "Jen [Johnson, hair stylist] does my hair on the show and I was like, 'Ooh that's a good look for next season.'"

I have a keloid scaring condition which has always prohibited me from taking care of a very embarrassing facial hair problem I have had since I was a teenager. Now 30 with at the time a very noticeable beard, I found myself having to tweeze, shave, epilate and wax my chin area almost weekly. Because of my scaring condition I had always been afraid to get laser hair removal in fear of getting huge raised scars.
So for years I have been completely ashamed of my appearance, until I went to see Dr Lee on a referral of a co-worker of mine. Dr Lee took me in on a consultation. I expressed my fears and after examining my skin and facial hair, as well as my medical history she felt 100% confident that I would not have a reaction and would be a great candidate for the laser hair removal. Still apprehensive, Dr Lee assured me that she would in fact be doing the procedure herself, which made me feel better about going in. I decided to take her advice and started treatment within a month of our consultation. I have to say that after 4 treatments, there is an incredible difference. I no longer have thick coarse stubble resembling a man's beard, but smooth skin with a few areas that still need a retouch.
It has been about 2-3 months since my last treatment, and I have minimal growth. I will be making an appointment for a touch up, but to not have to take 30 minutes out of my week every week and be able to wear my hair up without feeling gawking eyes staring at me is life changing. I wish that I had met Dr Lee years ago during those tough teen years but I am glad I found her now. The price is reasonable, for those of you who spend money on waxing frequently it is worth it. The procedure took in all about 10 minutes, and the pain was very minimal. To explain the pain factor it is comparable to a quick rubberband snap. I had zero irritation, and I commend Dr Lee and her staff for checking in after each procedure. I would recommend Dr Lee to anyone in search of enhancing their look or taking care of a problem in their appearance. She really takes the time to listen to all of your concerns and address them in the treatments.

Details of Sade and the Ticket Luck value
Sade Tickets
It is her voice, that hits the correct section of your head and heart and everything starts going round and round. We are talking about the ever hit English singer Sade Adu who, along with her band, has bewitched the music listeners from the last 3 decades. This mesmerizing band has released precious 9 albums and the fans remember all of these songs and their lyrics. Bestowed with a melting smooth voice and quite a distinctive one, Adu has the best musicians in her band to complement her serene singing style. Be it the bass, guitar, keyboard, sax or even lyrics, everything seem to be coiled around Adu, accentuating her ability to hypnotize the listeners. There is nothing like an entire session dedicated to listening to Sade band live and diving in and out of their melody, composition, lyrics and vocals. Sade Tickets are available now and of course they are very hot like ever.
Sade's current lineup is consistent since 1984; all of the band members have the songwriting talents and are wonderful at playing their specific instruments. Andrew Hale plays Keyboards, Paul Spencer Denman is on Bass, Stuart Colin Matthewman is on sax and guitar and Sade Adu is the vocalist and lyricist of the band. Their latest album, Soldier of Love was released in February 2010. The cover of this album, with backless Sade staring at a flying bird in distance, is very catchy. Soldier of Love debuted at #1 spot at the U.S Billboard 200, Canadian Albums Chart, European Top 100 Albums, French Albums Charts, Irish Albums Chart, Swiss Albums Charts and Italian Albums Chart and many otherss. It is hard to explain the feeling you get after listening to the "Soldier of Love", "In Another Time", "Bring Me Home" and "The Safest Place". The album has sold over 502,000 copies in the U.S so far
Adu started her professional music career in late 70s when she was a college student. She stayed with a local English band called Pride as the backing vocalist for some years. Adu, together with Matthewman, Cook and Denman left the band and made their own group called Sade in 1982. In Dec 1982, Sade did their debut at Ronnie Scott's Club, London. A few months later, Andrew Hale joined the band and Cook left. Shortly, Adu was offered a deal by Epic Records and together with her band members; Sade released its first album Diamond Life in July 1984. It debuted at # 2 on UK Albums Chary, # 5 in the U.S Billboard 200. Diamond Life was certified 2x platinum in France and Canada and was awarded 4x Platinum in the U.K and the U.S. "Why Can't We Live Together", "Your Love is King", "When Am I Going To Make a Living" and "Smooth Operator" are the notable tracks from this album.
Promise, the second album by Sade was released in November 1985. It earned the # 1 spot at the U.K Albums Chart, U.S Billboard 200, U.S top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Swiss Albums Chart. Promise was certified 2x platinum in Canada and U.K and 4x Platinum in the U.S by RIAA. "Never as Good as the First Time", "You're Not the Man", "The Sweet Taboo", "Is It a Crime" and "War of Hearts" are the beautiful tracks from this album. Their next album in line was Stronger Than Pride and it was released in May 1988. This album could not perform that well on the charts but did earn its fair share of the platinum certification by RIAA and BPI. Sade toured the world in the late 80s and made some serious fan following in Europe, Asia, Africa, Canada, Australia and America. Their fourth studio album Love Deluxe was released in 1992.
Sade released their first compilation album in November 1994. After this Adu went to hibernation for 8 years straight and the other band members started their own bands. The beautiful Nigerian singer Sade Adu came back with a bang in 2000 with her performance in Mobo Awards and her band members were just a call away to get together again. Their enchanting music is again making their fans sing along to it. Since their reunion in 2000, Sade band has released 3 albums and the craving of their fans with ever increased interest in their music is very encouraging. You better grab Sade Tickets as soon as possible and give yourself the luxury to enjoy the music which has already moved the hearts of millions.

For Immediate Release
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Dr. Rajiv Shah, USAID Administrator, delivered the keynote address at the Annual Meeting of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) this morning in San Francisco. He released the following statement:
"I am truly honored to be present this week at the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) Annual Meeting to celebrate the long and productive relationship that the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) shares with the U.S. university community. Together we have made great progress in supporting research, development and capacity building that benefits those in the U.S. and abroad.
For example, some of our earliest partnerships in food, health care and education in countries such as India, Brazil and South Korea have helped those countries graduate from aid recipients to donor countries. That critical work was carried out in coordination with researchers and experts at universities whose knowledge and skills complemented USAID's outreach and development expertise to make a lasting difference in these countries and elsewhere.
But our work together is far from complete. Nearly one billion of the world's seven billion people suffer from chronic food insecurity, and global food production will need to increase by 70% over the next 40 years to feed the growing population. U.S. universities have helped define the research priorities for Feed the Future, the U.S. government's global hunger and food security initiative, and will play a critical role in implementing USAID's new research programs supporting that effort.
In food security as in health, science and technology, we know that the government cannot do it alone. By working openly and directly with universities and other key partners, we can realize significant new opportunities in development, delivering results more effectively and efficiently than ever before. That is why, this week, we are unveiling a new university engagement hub on the USAID web site to provide our partners in the university community with a single point of contact and a one-stop-shop for information gathering. Interested students, faculty and researchers should visit www.usaid.gov/universities for more information.
There is no easy solution to solving the world's most pressing social challenges. But through partnerships between the government and U.S. universities, faith-based communities, the military and the American people, we have a real chance to provide a brighter tomorrow for millions around the world."

N.M. board postpones hearing on new medical marijuana rules
Wed, 14 Aug 2013 14:20:51 GMT —
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - The New Mexico Medical Board says high public interest is forcing it to postpone a scheduled hearing on proposed new rules for providers who certify patients to use medical marijuana.
The board planned to hold the hearing Friday but says it now must set a new date.
It says that's because the hearing was scheduled in a room that can accommodate only up to 100 people but that it now expects up to 400 people to attend.
The board says it will provide at least 30 days of advance notice of the new hearing date.
The proposed new rules include requiring providers to consult with a patient's other medical providers and requiring a periodic re-diagnosis of conditions warranting medical marijuana use.

Bay Cities history resurfaces along the Saginaw River
Thu, 21 Feb 2013 23:42:29 GMT —
Some hidden treasures are kept deep below earthâ??s surface never to be seen again. However, in Bay City low water levels are revealing a piece of the past once forgotten and as NBC 25's Josh Marshall reports is being remembered.
1870 Bay City, James Davidson is entering the shipbuilding business as an independent builder.
Starting small and eventually creating some of what the Bay City historical society calls the worldâ??s biggest wooden ships.
Davidson used Bay City to connect to the rest of the world.
"You go out the river and you can get out into the bay you can pretty much go anywhere you want to in the world from that destination and that's how Bay City got its name," said Bay City Historical Societies Chief Historian Ron Bloomfield.
But Davidsonâ??s business crumbled before the great depression. Davidson was forced to halt operations and close the yard. Leaving behind what's known as 'Davisonâ??s Graveyard.'
"What happened, it looks like the scene of a big accident or something. I have heard several people say it's one of the only places you can see a ship wreck above ground," said Ron Bloomfield.
In the early 1900's the ships remained untouched for the most part.
"People have talked about having jumped off those ships into the river, it was deeper at the time obviously," said Bloomfield.
Over the years Davidsonâ??s fleet fell into disrepair. His ships were vandalized bulldozed and burned down.
"Up goes the ship obviously it's going to burn. There is a lot of dry wood there so it burns to the waterline," said Bloomfield.
Leaving behind only remnants of what the historical society calls the biggest wooden ships to ever navigate the great lakes.
"You can see the outlines of the hulls and they haven't been dredged. I think that's significant, it shows us that they are being preserved, that nature is actually preserving these ships,â?? said Bloomfield.
Ships that were once dry-docked.
Theyâ??re now entombed seemingly forever at veterans memorial park.
And people still find parts of the past washed up along the Saginaw River.
"With families with people, oh yeah my father, my grandfather, my great grandfather worked for Davidson. May have had an actual hand in putting that spike in or cut that particular piece of wood. That's a really neat connection," said Bloomfield.
Historian Ron Bloomfield says the cost of preserving what's left makes these relics almost impossible to move and restore.
But with a changing tide you can catch a glimpse of history along the Saginaw River.

Sources, Belief, and Credibility
So there has been some "leaked" information from "reliable sources close to the subject" running around the WoW community lately. Matticus has an excellent post on why it is that sometimes you just can't name your source – whether that's because they will lose their job if it gets back to them or because they've simply asked you not to squawk.
Heck, I follow the same guidelines here, more or less. If you email me with a question, and ask me not to mention your name and server – I won't. You've asked, and your privacy as a gamer is important to me.
Of course, it's a little different when you're dealing with news and not Ask Anna's Advice Column, but hey – the basic premise is the same.
That said, regardless of the ethics of preserving source confidentiality – nobody is /required/ to buy in to what is posted until it is posted with a defined source. Nor is a blogger /required/ to post that information until it can be decidedly sourced.
Now, I know that things are different for those folks that actually try to break the news. I don't (and that's no surprise to those of you that've stuck with me for… what, nearly a year and a half now? eesh…) and so I don't run into this problem very often. If the Warcraft Head Developer were to email me this week and say "Anna, in the next expansion, Paladins are going to have summonable angel pets as their form of raid healing, but you're not allowed to use my name or credentials at this time" I'd do a tiny little happydance… and shut up about it. It's not my blog's business to break news.
However – it /is/ the business of other sites to break news.
And if they so choose, they have – like every other journalistic source – the right to publish news with unnamed sources. It's a standard practice in journalism.
I, as Jane Peon the Site Visitor, have a different right. And it's a right I exercise on major world news sources, gaming news sources, craft news sources, and whatever other sites I frequent. And that is what I call the Right of Disbelief.
The Right of Disbelief doesn't entitle me to bash, hate on, flame, or otherwise be an asshat to the person that posted the potentially un-believable subject matter. What it entitles me to is simply this – I can choose to say "that's nice, and I'll wait to form an opinion on the subject until we have a qualified source close to the subject that's willing to pony up the accountability for this".
Well it's simple. If the Blizzard lead developer sends me that email about Angel Aoe Pets, and then sometime between now and whatever the heck the next expansion is the entire Dev team shoots that developer down, and the plan changes to giving Paladins little cherub babies as mana regen instead… nobody's ass is on the line… except mine. My choosing to report on that (with an anonymous source) only gets MY ass grilled if it's wrong.
However, if that same developer allows me the privilege of using their name and title, THEIR ass is now on the line as well. This is why in the early stages of these "releases", an accredited source is very rare.
And so, I maintain my Right of Disbelief for many many things about WoW. I don't freak out about early, leaked Patch Notes, or pre-Blizzcon special "mined" releases. I'll believe it when I see it. When, as Matt's E1-E5 rating would suggest, I have at least an E4, if not an E5 rating on the source.
That doesn't make a site that is willing to publish E1 information any less valid. It simply means they're willing to take the grilling if the source data falls through – a risk I (and my tiny little insignificant website) am not willing to take just yet.

MANILA, Philippines- The country's most eligible bachelor is finally enjoying the presidency.
President Benigno S. Aquino III admits that halfway through his six-year term, he is now enjoying being the Chief Executive, contrary to the last three years of his term.
It was no secret that Aquino was reluctant in the May 2010 presidential candidacy, pushed by the public's cry, following the death of his mother, democracy icon and former President Corazon Aquino.
"All jokes aside, this is a role I have come to enjoy," Aquino said in the inauguration of Brother Industries Philippines Inc. in Tanauan, Batangas.
This is contrary to what he had been griping since he took over Malacañan in the year 2010 that he has a 24/7 job with no overtime pay, no entitled leaves of absence, compared his Php 95,000 gross monthly salary to a chief executive officer or chief operating officer in a multinational company that earns hundreds of thousands of pesos, and complained about his privacy since all the girls he dated always ended up in the front pages.
Aside from being the "salesman-in-chief", Aquino is tasked to endorse the Philippines to foreign investors and tourists and be a head inaugurator, ground-breaker, ribbon-cutter and disaster relief worker.
But the aside from these unofficial titles, Aquino is the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the chairman of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) board.

Parents of Montevallo Elementary students voice concerns over mold
Parents with children that attend Montevallo Elementary want to know their children are safe. They packed the cafeteria Tuesday night with concerns about mold. Some students were moved to portables in September after black mold was found in some classrooms.
Parents are worried about the safety of their children at Montevallo Elementary. "I can't promise them I'm sending them to a school that's safe and clean. That's what I'm supposed to do." PTO President Michele Gallagher wants specific information from the Shelby County School System on how clean-up is going in areas where black mold was found primarily in the 5th grade wing. 5th graders are now learning out here.
"K through 4th grade are in the building and that's what we're concerned about. We don't know if its in the air ducts, we don't know what's going on."{} Parent Yolanda Inabinette says "I'm not being updated as I feel like I should be. I feel likes we should be updated every week on anything done in the school."
Many parents say their children now have asthma. Those parents{} believe mold could be to blame,{} there are even concerns about asbestos. That's why the PTO wants to get their own environmental team in to investigate.
Principal, Dr. Annie McClain understands parents are fearful but says the school system is addressing the matter. "There have been two air quality tests done. I haven't got the report on the second one, but in all fairness, the board is working to clean up the mold."
The PTO has hired an attorney because members say teachers have never been notified about asbestos in the building. We could not reach the superintendent for an interview.

The Yankees and Red Sox, forever linked, came into the 2013 season in similar ways.
Both were looking at the prospect of a bridge year. For the Red Sox, it was rebuilding after shipping away Adrian Gonzalez, Carl Crawford and Josh Beckett, with few good choices on the free-agent market and the upcoming players not quite there. For the Yankees, it was finding a way to produce the same amount of wins with a smaller payroll, as the team tries to get itself under the luxury tax threshold.
Both were coming off down years. For the Red Sox, it was really down — 69 wins down. For the Yankees, it was wilting in the playoffs at historic levels. Both teams had marquee players and high expectations. Both teams failed to perform.
But a little over a week into the season, with just a few games separating them and so much still to be determined, the similar storylines are starting to take different trajectories. While a week can't tell much more about how this baseball season will turn out than the heavy speculation throughout spring training could, a few trends have arisen. If they continue, they could mark some real separation between the Red Sox and the Yankees, with the Red Sox headed up and challenging in the American League East.
While the Yankees (4-4) are playing with a short deck due to injuries and the Red Sox (5-2) have seen many of their preseason hopes realized so far, the early success of Boston while New York middles isn't luck. The Red Sox are using a strategy that has traditionally been hard to beat, while the Yankees are relying on — well, being the Yankees.
That's why Boston has a good chance to skip its bridge year, while New York is facing one of those intermittently bad seasons that every team save the Yankees seems to get.
The separation starts with the two teams' strategies, whether their areas of emphasis are intentional or not. The Red Sox are betting heavily on pitching this year. Former pitching coach John Farrell was brought in as the new manager, and he's being counted on to help Jon Lester, Clay Buchholz and John Lackey rediscover their mojo and also get Felix Doubront's career off on the right foot.
The common refrain on the Sox' rotation is that it can be the best in the bigs when it's clicking. A cycle and a half through so far, Boston's starters have shown just that. The team's 2.95 ERA is fifth best in Major League Baseball and second in the American League, with the team seventh in strikeouts at 82 (third in the AL) and ninth in WHIP (1.21, fourth in the AL). That includes a shaky first start by Ryan Dempster and an injury-stalled beginning for Lackey.
By themselves, the Red Sox' starters' numbers are hard to argue with. Lester is 2-0 with a 1.50 ERA and 13 strikeouts, and Buchholz is 2-0 with a 0.64 ERA and 12 strikeouts. Even Dempster (0-1, 5.40 ERA, 8 Ks), Doubront (0-0, 5.40 ERA, 6 Ks) and Lackey (0-1, 4.15 ERA, 8 Ks) are nowhere near the messy lines that Sox pitchers put up for months last year. The 2012 Red Sox were second-worst in the American League in both runs allowed (4.98) and ERA (4.70), with just Cleveland and Minnesota more horrendous at shutting teams down.
The stat lines of Boston's starting pitchers may flatten somewhat, but the Red Sox' strategy of sticking with their talent and making it sing again is already showing that it can stake Boston to success. A rested, effective bullpen has only bolstered that effort, with the Sox having yet to give up a lead in the late innings, as they did in about a third of their losses last year.
Contrast the Red Sox' pitching situation with that of the Yankees. New York's problem is less that it doesn't have the talent and more that it is hoping to stretch that talent past its expiration date. The Yankees have the big guns of pitching, but they differ from the Red Sox in this area in that their pitching slumps cannot be as easily dismissed. When the Boston rotation falters, it has been attributed to a fixable quality like mental focus or chemistry. When the New York rotation falters, the concerns are much deeper.
CC Sabathia (1-1, 3.00 ERA, 9 Ks) has been the definition of an ace, but injuries are starting to creep up with age. Andy Pettitte (2-0, 1.20 ERA, 7 Ks) is unreal in starting games after a Yankees loss, but at 40, he doesn't provide much hope beyond this season, and flukes like last year's broken ankle show how quickly the team can come apart without him in the rotation. Hiroki Kuroda (1-1, 6.75 ERA, 7 Ks) continues to be one of the best options for New York, but he's also not a long-term solution (and, as another fluke injury showed, also a huge part of what's holding the Yankees together). Phil Hughes (6.75 ERA, 0-1, 4 Ks) and Ivan Nova (0-1, 7.71 ERA, 5 Ks) have oscillated between brilliance, injury and ineffectiveness.
The Yankees are 22nd in MLB in ERA (4.89) and dead last in WHIP (1.71), coming off a year when they were fourth-best in runs allowed per game (4.12) and second in the American League in strikeouts. When their bats croaked in their playoff series against the Orioles last fall, their pitching dug them out. This year, however, that same mix of pitching is one year older and several stray balls more injured.
It can be said that the Red Sox and Yankees are both relying heavily on their pitching to carry them this year, but the difference is that the Red Sox are leaning on an adjustable foundation, while the Yankees are going all or nothing, and merely hoping for the all.
What the Yankees are depending on — and what the Sox have somewhat eschewed this year — is power hitting. What's strange about this is that the Yankees have lost most of their power hitters, with Nick Swisher (24 home runs), Russell Martin (21), Raul Ibanez (19) and Andruw Jones (13) all gone in the offseason. Furthermore, New York's biggest current bats are on the disabled list: Curtis Granderson (43), Mark Teixeira (24), Alex Rodriguez (18) and Derek Jeter (15). As every New York beat writer with a calculator has noted, that's 72 percent of last year's total home runs.
But the Yankees still have Robinson Cano, and they've added curious pieces like Travis Hafner, Kevin Youkilis and Lyle Overbay — players who are supposed to be washed up but have donned the pinstripes and started driving in runs instead. The Yankees have 15 home runs in eight games — tops in MLB — as well as 49 runs scored and 46 runs batted in, both second only to the Reds.
Their home runs have bailed them out in all their wins this year, and the Yankees have eight home runs over their last two games (coincidentally or not, both against Terry Francona's Indians).
This Yankees lineup brings memories of the famous line from Catch Me If You Can, where the question is why the Yankees always win. "It's because they have Mickey Mantle." "No, it's because everyone's looking at their pinstripes." A new wardrobe has instantly produced power for the players filling the stray holes in this lineup.
But that's exactly why the Red Sox, and their meager nine home runs so far (six of them on Sunday, and three of those thanks to Will Middlebrooks), should not be worried. The Red Sox scored tons of runs last season (4.53 a game, fifth in the American League), and it didn't help much thanks to the poor pitching. Even if the Yankees somehow repeat their 245 home runs from last year — improbable with this lineup — what happened in the playoffs shows the source of true power.
Pitching. Pitching. Pitching.
If the Red Sox finally have the rotation figured out, this could be a fun year. Whether it's enough to hold off other American League teams and go somewhere is still a question.
But at least this much is certain: As the two perennial American League East powers come into this season with similar struggles and needs to achieve, the way they've won so far has been very different. And the one-week-in statistics are favoring the team that's not staring at the pinstripes.

For our final four days in the UK, and our final road trip in Gazpacho, we left London on Monday morning and headed out to Cornwall – the south-western most county of England. We're staying here until Thursday, when we'll zoom back to London to drop off the car to it's new owner, before making our way to Heathrow for our final departure!
The drive out here is long – in the region of five hours – so we took a number of breaks along the way. When we saw signs to Cheddar, we knew that Sister Susan would never forgive us if we didn't stop to pay homage to the birthplace of her beloved cheese, so we made a quick detour to check out it.
The area's main drawcard is in fact not a bunch of cheesey attractions (see what I did there?), but instead the gorge, and the caves where it's thought that the cheese was originally made. But at £17.50 a pop for a tour of the caves ("The ticket is valid for 10 years!" says the ticket lady), and with two-and-a-half more hours of driving ahead of us, we gave them a skip.
We finally arrived in Newquay at around 5 PM. Kristy had read about a funky cafe called Cafe Irie which apparently made a delicious afternoon tea, and even though it was a bit late in the day for it, we decided to give it a whirl anyway. Funky, it most certainly was!
Their food was excellent; Kristy especially can verify this, as she received two servings of pancakes instead of the two pancakes that she thought she had ordered. That'll pay her for being indecisive with her toppings! Funniest of all though, the waitress didn't even bat an eyelid at how much food it was – she must have thought Kristy was taking the whole "eating for two" thing very literally!
This turned out to be more than enough food to see us through the evening, so after a very quick walk around the town, we checked in to our hotel and had ourselves an early night.

Firemen from the Ramona Fire Department will take to the streets on Friday, Aug. 28, with their boots in hand, to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA).
Last year Ramona firefighters raised almost $5,000 in their first effort with the "Fill the Boot for Jerry's Kids" campaign. All funds raised stay in the area to benefit local families served by the MDA, said association spokesman Angel Chanchea.
Firefighters will be accepting donations from passing motorists at three intersections: San Vicente Road and Gunn Stage Road, 10th Street and Main Street, and Highway 67 and Dye Road. They will be there from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. and again from noon to 3 p.m.
"They will be impossible to miss as there will be at least 10 firefighters dressed in uniform blues at each location," said Chanchea. "And they will be joined by many MDA families who will be coming out to show their support and to thank firefighters for their incredible efforts."
Last year firefighters with CalFire raised $25,000 as part of a total of $104,000 for San Diego and Imperial counties. The donations allowed MDA to provide free patient services to 1,050 families in the area, Chanchea said. Items covered included a clinic at Children's Hospital, a weeklong summer camp for kids at Camp Cuyamaca, support groups and assistance in purchasing wheelchairs and leg braces.
The campaign has been sponsored nationally for 55 years by the International Association of Fire Fighters. It was started in 1954 by two firemen, one of whom had a daughter with muscular dystrophy. The union's leaders always appear on the annual Jerry Lewis MDA telethon to announce the total amount raised nationally. Last year it was $27,530,000.
This year's Labor Day telethon, on Sept. 7, will have "a local firefighter's hour" where area fire chiefs will present the money raised in this year's boot drive, Chanchea said.

Auto Zone robbed at knifepoint
Police are looking for a suspect who robbed the Auto Zone auto-parts store at 2848 North Ave. shortly before 9 p.m. Tuesday.
According to Grand Junction Police Department spokeswoman Kate Porras, a man walked into the Auto Zone as the store neared closing time, brandished a knife, took some money, then left the store.
Two employees and one customer were in the store at the time of the robbery, and none of them were hurt, Porras said.
The suspect was described to police as being about 5 feet 8 inches tall, approximately 150 pounds and wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, Porras said.
A police radio report mentioned the suspect might be a former employee of the store, but Porras said officers had not determined whether the man had any relationship with the store.

Q&A: A guide to negotiating your second contract
Since you're on ProSal, you shouldn't have to renegotiate your percentage as long as the total compensation package comes out to something close to 25 percent of your production, says Veterinary Economics Editorial Advisory Board member Mark Opperman, owner of VMC Inc. in Evergreen, Colo. You should be getting a "raise" by your increased productivity and an increase in your practice's fee schedule. Ask the practice owner to complete a total compensation statement (download one at http://dvm360.com/tcs) to make sure you're in that 25 percent range.
When it comes to benefits, you can probably expect an increase in time off—in personal days or vacation days—and an increase in time off and money allocated for CE. Unfortunately there are no rules here to determine exactly what you deserve—that's up to you and the practice owner to decide.

hey peeps has any1 got or had a colostomy bag i have just been told my cancer is curable but i will need a permanent colostomy bag, i am a bit apprehensive about this wud any1 be willing to share their experiences pls xxx
Hi Emmy
Great news that your cancer is curable!! Sorry I don't know much about the colostomy bag side of things. I am sure one of the ladies will be along to offer their advice as soon as. xx
Hi Emmy,
I have a colostomy following my surgery in January. Mine isnt permanent. Colostomy is supposed to be getting reversed in 6-9months. Like you I was very apprehensive beforehand. I met the stoma nurse once before I went into hospital and she had a long chat with me. She also tried to arrange for me to have a chat with someone who already had a stoma but this didnt happen as I was admitted within 4 days of seeing her. Stoma nurse gave me a dummy stoma to take home with me and i wore this for 3 days and practised attaching bags etc. Whilst in hospital she came in once a day to see me and taught me how to change bags etc. Since coming home I have regular phone contact with her & see her every 2 weeks meantime. I wont pretend having the colostomy is easy. At first I was very embarressed at the wind/noises passed through it as I had no warning or control over this. Glad to say that has settled down a bit!! I have had a few mishaps with leaking which has made me less confident to go anywhere but stoma nurse is working with me just now to rectify this. Fortunately I havnt been mobile enough to get out much so this hasnt been that big a problem. I am still a bit paranoid that others can see bulge of the bag. This is despite my daughters & husband telling me that you cant. I tend to wear a cardigan all the time now. Its only been 4 weeks since I had surgery and despite what I have said above I have surprised myself with how well I am coping and learning to live with colostomy. Before surgery I said I wouldnt tell anyone I had colostomy but on a few occassions I have found it easier for me to say " I have a colostomy and still gettin used to it ". It puts me more at ease & if others have prolems with it then they need to deal with it. My grandaughter who is 2 kept trying to pull my bag of one day she was visiting so I showed her it. Now when she visits she has to have one stuck to her clothes so she can be just like me. Wee things like that help me adjust to life with my "new friend" and I am sure you will find ways to cope/adjust to. Anything you want to ask just contact me. Do you know when operation is.
Take care
Fi :-)

Re: [rootsradicals] Re: why doesn't 700C fit well?
Expand Messages
- I have toured extensively with my 700c Xtracycle and love it dearly. 37c is the widest tire that will work. 38c might if you shave it a bit. There are risers for the V racks that come with the kit to elevate the SnapDeck. Must be pounded into the V rack tubes with a mallet. It limits the weight you carry somewhat but mine has carried to adults at the same time. Fat tires are overrated.On Mon, Jun 17, 2013 at 9:00 AM, rdstreet <rdstreet@...> wrote:

Adele 'would make great Britain's Got Talent judge', say presenters
Adele has emerged as a contender to replace
David Hasselhoff as a judge on Britain's Got Talent after receiving a thumbs-up from the show's presenters.
Both Stephen Mulhern – who presents Britain's Got More Talent on ITV2 – and main show hosts Ant and Dec said they thought the 23-year-old would be an asset to the panel.
'She'd add something completely different,' Mulhern said, while Ant and Dec added: 'She'd be good. She's been there and is down to earth.'
However the pair also said they would be keen to see Cheryl Cole – who's rumoured to be Hasselhoff's replacement – take on the job.
'We'd be able to understand her,' they said of the former X Factor judge. 'And she'd be able to understand us!'
According to reports last week, Simon Cowell has lined up Cole to join the panel of the show following the news that Hasselhoff would not be returning next series.
She had originally been lined up to be a judge on the show but dropped out at the last moment, to be replaced by Amanda Holden.
Adele – whose hits include Rolling In The Deep and Someone Like You – was previously tipped to become a judge on BBC One's forthcoming talent show The Voice.
