In New Memoir, Chabon Skewers Circumcision
The best-selling, Pulitzer-winning, famously Jewish author, Michael Chabon, is ready to tell us how he really feels about a particular halakhic ritual.
A Cut Above the Rest: In Search of the Perfect Mohel
Sam Apple, author of the delightful "Schlepping Through the Alps: My Search for Austria's Jewish Past With Its Last Wandering Shepherd," has just published a hilarious essay on the Los Angeles Times Web site about his search for a mohel to circumcise his son. The setup:
I did not want just anyone to cut my son's penis. I wanted the best. And so when my wife, Jennifer, neared the end of her pregnancy, I decided to interview mohels. I had good reason to be nervous about ritual circumcisers. In 2004, three New York babies contracted herpes from a mohel, who, in keeping with an ultra-Orthodox Jewish tradition, used his mouth to draw blood from the wound. I had no intention of letting a mohel — or anyone else for that matter — put his mouth on my newborn son's genitals, but the moral of the story was clear enough: If you're going to chop off part of someone's penis without asking permission, you'd better choose your chopper with care.

Anyway, it's a good picture of your son - regardless of the highlight problems.

Hello everybody,
Having to possess a dual nozzle type 3d printer for several weeks and having the following harassments:
>In printing PLA, the made prototype which has small details and thin wall is perfect and now I have confident in using this material to do printing
>however, wanting to have better strength, I start to print it with ABS.
First trial, very poor, a) inside was unfilled, b) filaments and inter-layers not adhered together, c) tall portion broke down during printing..
Second trial, increase temp. from 220 to 250~255 degree C, slow down speed from 90 to 40, infill increase from 30 to 100%. After checking the filament diameter, it is smaller; only 1.66mm. So flow are increase from 100 to 110~115%. However, the outcome of the second trial is still far from satisfactory.
The defect of a)almost improved, b)improved a little, some portion still loosened packed, tall portions still fell down, it is because some areas was still not dense enough and filament are not fully welded together. Some small details also detached during print.
>after trial for three times more, I totally lost confident. As PLA is no problem, I assumed that it is not the machine's mechanical problem,
the only variable is the filament, its appearance looks good. Is that a 0.1mm smaller in diameter has such big issue or something else?
I cannot adjust the feeder roller tension, is there any grinding of filament occurrence?
Hope to have somebody give help! Thanks,

The M35 is quite simply one of the best phones that siemens or any other manufacturer have made. It's easy to use and great value for money. If your looking for an all purpose phone for normal and simple everyday use, you won't do much better for that price. Get One!!

On-loan Fenerbahce striker Emmanuel Emenike scored a brace in his first start for West Ham since joining the club last month.
The Nigerian international striker scored twice in the 5-1 FA Cup 5th Round victory over Blackburn.
Hammers and Nigeria international teammate Victor Moses stated that Emenike deserved the goals after the game and praised his work ethic.
Moses told the official West Ham website: "Emmanuel is happy and I'm happy for him as well. He deserved it – he worked very hard, never stopped running and you can see his ability.
"He's very strong and I'm delighted that he got his two goals."
Moses also scored against Blackburn for his second goal for the east London based club this season.
Emenike scored on 64 minutes and bagged a brace with his second of the game on 85 minutes.
Emenike scored his first goal for the Hammers since joining on a six-month loan from Fenerbahce last month.
The Nigerian international striker had made two appearances prior to the Blackburn game but this was his first actual start.

Shrewsbury, United Kingdom
A talented DJ and producer based in Shropshire.
Back in '98 he started to produce and mix house music before moving onto Drum and Bass, at the height of Tech Step (1st time round!). As a 'Metal Head' this was a natural transition the focus being high energy music. Over time 'Nykto' has played at numerous events both indoor and outdoor, alongside many of the DJ's he grew up admiring! Then came the birth of 'Tremors', a great crew all with the same ambition for promoting Drum and Bass and putting on legendary nights in the Shire. Musically there have been many influences in his life, through various genres of music, but his dedication and passion for Drum and Bass has stayed with him. Many that know him will remember him for the 'Darker side' of Drum and Bass under the name 'Jinjah', but now he leans towards the intelligent sounds, deep and minimal.

text: Teacher absences are a constant topic of conversation — in the media, online and at district board meetings. And maybe rightly so, given that millions of employees serve in K-12 education, and if they're absent, what happens? Sometimes a qualified substitute is in place. And sometimes they're not — and when that happens, student learning can come to a screeching halt. Over the years, different analysts have tried to dig through the data to determine the real scope of the absence issue and potential solutions. But each report has been limited to either a small set of data or to a given point in time. We've set out to change that. And we believe we can because we have access to absence data you won't find anywhere else. For example: All of this aggregate data has been collected in our Aesop substitute and absence management system, used by thousands of K-12 organizations. This data is so comprehensive and diverse that researchers from the Center for Research & Reform in Education at Johns Hopkins University have declared it to be representative of national norms. So what's next? We're excited to begin analyzing this vast amount of data and to share what we learn with the education community. Each month, we'll release an updated report and identify trends that may be meaningful for school districts. This data will eventually provide districts with a consistent benchmark to evaluate their own data. In this first report summary, we've analyzed January 2016 data to lay the foundation for the types of data we'll be presenting each month. Look for even more trends as we have multiple months of data to compare! In this report, you'll learn: The number of absences K-12 employees took in January Which days of the week had the most absences District fill rates, and which days were hardest and easiest to fill The percentage of substitutes who aren't actually working And more!

Our courses make excellent Christmas and birthday presents, with gift vouchers available.
Velotech Accredited courses
Velotech Accredited Training Courses are recognised by the trade as one of the leading standards in professional bike mechanics and are nationally accredited and recognised by the Bicycle Association of Great Britain. We run regular 4-day Gold courses at our dedicated training workshop in Cambridge which are aimed at professionals or keen individuals wanting to gain experience in all maintenance tasks from wheel building to frame preparation. We also run courses at different levels for specific groups such as schools or certain groups who want to gain an accreditation such as the Bike Bank project.
For more information or a full brochure, please get in touch.
One-day home mechanic courses
Our popular one day courses run at the weekend are the perfect way to get to know your bike better. Run in small groups we offer two levels covering everything from the absolute basics to more advanced skills such as changing cables.

For more information, visit our basic and intermediate course pages or have a look below at some of the upcoming courses.
Open Workshop - Fix your own bike!
Are you keen to fix your own bike but short on space or need a few specialist tools? Perhaps you'd just like some advice while you build up your own bike?
Our fully equipped training workshop is now open for you - currently Monday afternoon/evenings and soon also monthly Saturdays!
We offer three levels of annual membership, Bronze (£20), Silver (£40) and Gold (£75), with decreasing hourly fees of £8/h, £6/h and £4/h.

Membership also gives you 10% discount on all workshop supplies, tools and repairs. For more information please go here.
Demonstration sessions
The most common reason we hear people don't cycle to work is the fear of a puncture. Our one-hour Maintenance Demonstration Sessions are designed to give employees the confidence and knowledge to fix a puncture, along with other fundamental repairs, so they can confidently ride to work all year round. We run two different sessions, puncture repair, and adjusting gears and brakes. At an hour each they can work as standalone sessions over a lunch break, or work well together as a pair.
Our qualified mechanics have a wealth of experience teaching maintenance courses and love to get people back out riding on their bikes. We offer discounts for sessions booked alongside Dr Bikes and booked in pairs. For more information please get in touch.
Thank you for the interesting session on the bike maintenance: from now on I will check myself my bike and I will be able to change the wheel if I get a puncture!

I really like this rug for the price. It is soft under foot and will hold up well to lots of foot traffic. The downside is the background color of the rug is a wheat color...not cream (as pictured) and the blue patterned flowers are not aqua/teal blue as pictured and described...more of a mint green with some light blue flecks in it, which is why I didn't give it a 5 star rating. I am keeping the rug even though it's not the blue I was expecting or the cream background.

Ojibwe declared official language of White Earth Nation
WHITE EARTH -- At a special meeting of the White Earth Tribal Council held Monday, Aug. 9, the council voted unanimously to declare Ojibwe as the official language of the White Earth Band of Chippewa Indians.
"To ensure our language will live and thrive in perpetuity, the tribal council has declared Ojibwe as the official language of the White Earth Nation," said Chairwoman Erma J. Vizenor. "It means our Ojibwe language has priority over any other language within the tribe. The Ojibwe language is the foundation to our culture, traditions, history, and spirituality. It is who we are."
The resolution states many indigenous languages have vanished or are in danger of disappearing if they are not preserved or promoted, and the White Earth Reservation Tribal Council strongly supports the preservation of the Ojibwe language for the benefit of future generations. Currently, White Earth Reservation has fewer than 10 first generation speakers of the Ojibwe language.

As more lenders continue to move on rates, one thing is becoming very clear: no lender is prepared to pass on the full rate cut to borrowers. In the last few days, BankSA cut 38 basis points from its standard variable rate to 7.04 per cent, while St George also cut 0.38 per cent from its SVR, taking it to to 7.04 per cent effective from May 14. Bendigo Bank cut its rate by 0.35 per cent and CUA passed on half of the Reserve Bank's 50 basis point cut by slashing 25 basis points from its standard variable rate. One of the biggest interest rate cuts so far is the Bank of Melbourne, which passed on a 0.41 per cent rate cut to borrowers.

To support the coming price war, PDP makers have been investing in technology improvements that directly reduce cost to manufacture, and leading the way is the move to single scan PDP technology.
Single Scan Cost Savings Should Boost PDP Profits
Steve Sechrist | Insight Media
Single Scan Cost Savings
To support the coming price war, PDP makers have been investing in technology improvements that directly reduce cost to manufacture, and leading the way is the move to single scan PDP technology.
Last month in the PDP Watch section of Projector Monthly, we ran a story looking at how PDP manufacturers plan to boost profitability in preparation for the impending 40+-inch LCD onslaught into the large TV display space (see Projection Monthly, August 2005, p. 44). This month, we delve a bit deeper into the market forces driving the move and the technology side of this strategy as major PDP players, like LG, Samsung and Matsushita, introduce new single scan drive to further reduce costs and boost profits as they ride the price curve down toward consumer nirvana.
On the LCD side, driving the move to larger panel sizes is the continued price decline in the 27 to 37-inch LCD-TV market. For example, we reported last month that the ASP for 37-inch LCD-TV panels dropped $25 to $825 in the first half of July. DisplaySearch said the ASP declined $20 to $810, with the price expected to fall to $700-$730 by year end.
This lower LCD module revenue translates into squeezed profits for manufacturers. Consequently, panel makers look to the larger 40- and 42-inch display sizes in what appears to be a category ripe with profits as consumers make the change to DTV-based displays. Indeed LCD fab planners have been ramping up production at gen 6 plants and investing heavily in new gen 7 facilities that produce an efficient six to eight 40-inch-plus panels from a single motherglass (see Projection Monthly LCD fab investment story, August 2005, p.55). According to conventional thinking, this move will boost efficiencies in LCD production, giving the flat-panel makers higher profits as long as ASPs hold the line.
But, as we mentioned in our Projection Monthly financial analysts report last month, the very large TV space is dangerous territory for LCD players, as it impinges directly on other strong technologies, namely PDP and RPTV, both expected to vie for market share, putting continued pressure on the very large display category.
To support the coming price war, PDP makers have been investing in technology improvements that directly reduce cost to manufacture, and leading the way is the move to single scan PDP technology. We had a conversation with industry veteran, Jim Noeker, Panasonic's sr. digital engineer, to get a sense of the trade-offs of the single scan approach.
Noeker starts off with the obvious cost savings in single scan technology - half the number of drivers are needed to address the plasma cells. "You either mount them on the top or the bottom of the display in a single scan system," Noecker said. "While it's true, the driver count is reduced by half, it doesn't translate into half the BOM cost," Noeker continued. "The drivers in a single scan system require higher current to drive longer electrodes (essentially the full height of the display.) In a dual scan system, drivers on the top and bottom meet in the middle and only need to support current for half the display height. These higher current drivers will probably cost a bit more than their lower current cousins, but there still should be a significant reduction in driver costs."
That brings us to a second cost savings in single scan systems - support for single electrodes simplifies manufacturing. In a dual scan system, top and bottom electrodes need to join together in the middle of the display at sub-pixel tolerances. "Since there is no break in the data electrodes using a single scan system, the manufacturing process is simplified with some probable cost-down effects," said Noeker.
One other potential trade-off in moving to a single scan system may be loss of display time if the address duty cycle remains the same. "A single scan means using half the drivers, which essentially doubles the addressing time," Noeker said. In a dual scan system, having twice as many drivers means the cells are addressed twice as fast, leaving more of the TV frame rate (1/60 second or roughly 16.67ms) to dedicate to the display period. "This extra display time can be used to increase brightness or improve sub-field gradation for better motion rendering," Noeker continued. But, he said, designers can get around this problem by increasing the addressing speed, depending on the panel characteristics and electronics.
On the application side, LG Electronics developed the industry's first 42-inch single scan technology in July 2004 and a 50-inch PDP model in April 2005. The cost-saving effect reduced the driver IC cost by half, with a reported total system cost savings of up to 30%. But based on some industry sources, we think that figure is a bit high.
LG also claims to have increased light emission efficiency by more than 30% through a new discharge cell structure and gas development.
Samsung SDI also adopted a single scan technology and is applying it to nearly 100% of its V4 lines. The company also plans to develop V5 (50-inch HD PDPs embracing single scan technology) and V6 products at year end and next year.
On another technology front, Samsung is shifting the physical structure of its PDP cells from square to octagon, using a home-grown technology, called "HERO Cell," an acronym for High Efficiency Rib and Optimized electrodes. The result is an expansion of light emission areas and advancement in overall discharge efficiency, according to the company. All this, according to the company, translates into a brighter picture with better contrast than LCD - helping to secure the PDP image advantage (see related story, Projection Monthly, July 2005, p. 96).
In what some consider another battlefront between display technologies, the ability to display 1080p native images or "full HD" is heating up in the large display category. To that end, Samsung also claimed that it has developed its own PDP driver IC that allows a reduction in the number of driver ICs used to drive full-HD TVs. According to Samsung, the new driver IC can save 30% of total panel manufacturing costs. This announcement comes on the heels of our report in July that Matsushita, Hitachi and Pioneer all have plans for PDPs with 1080p or full-HD resolution (see Projection Monthly, July 2005, p. 90).
Japan's leading PDP maker, Matsushita, is also driving hard in the PDP category. In May, we reported new plasma TVs, in 37-, 42- and 50-inch screen sizes, all featuring Matsushita's latest PEAKS (Picture Enhancement Accelerator with Kinetic System) technology that uses a newly developed plasma panel, deep black filter, and real black drive system. The deep black filter attached to the front protection glass reduces light transmittance, effectively suppressing external glare and reflection. The real black drive system has realized a high contrast ratio of 3000:1 in the dark environment, creating deeper and richer blacks, says Panasonic. When asked, the company was mum on the issue of moving to a single scan technology.
To further improve efficiencies, Panasonic will open what it claims to be the world's largest manufacturing facility for plasma display panel TVs in September. Matsushita also plans to leverage its strong brand name to extend the sale beyond just the display. "After consumers buy our plasma TVs, we will likely be able to sell them related audiovisual products," said Kunio Nakamura, president of Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. "We aim to launch a major offensive in North America with our audiovisual equipment, and will try to boost our share of the North American plasma TV market to 40% in the current business year, from 30% in fiscal 2004."
Masaaki Fujita, head of Matsushita's plasma TV business, told Reuters News Service he now expects the global market to reach 6M units in the year to March, one million above a prior forecast and more than double the 2.7M units sold in 2004/05. Fujita expressed confidence that Matsushita would be able to secure 35% of the global market.
The Matsushita estimate comes one quarter after an IDC projection of 4.7M plasma display panels to ship worldwide this year (three months shy of the March '06 period covered by Matsushita), as reported in IDC's "Worldwide PDP-TV 2005-2009 Forecast and 2004 Vendor Shares" report (April 2005).
The research company did say plasma technologies will continue to dominate the 42-inch-and-greater flat-panel category in both price and sales volume, and from 2005 through 2009, will increase by a factor of three, to over 14M displays at the end of 2009.
The Koreans are more bullish in their numbers, as Samsung SDI forecasts that PDP module unit shipments worldwide will more than double this year, to 7.2M from last year's 3.5M. The company intends to ship 2.2M (about 31%) of those units. Separately, Samsung Electronics said it is equipping an LCD production line that will cost approximately $975M and will begin production next April. The facility will have the capacity to make 45K sheets per month for 40- and 46-inch LCD panel production.
Samsung SDI is now running three PDP production lines at its facility in Cheonan, South Korea, for a total capacity of 250K units a month. News reports also indicated the company may be considering further expansion of production capacity using a larger glass substrate.
Finally, DisplaySearch reported its 2004 PDP worldwide shipments and market share data, stating global shipments of plasma panels soared 107% to 3.6M units in 2004. South Korea's Samsung SDI Co., which almost doubled its output capacity, became the industry leader for the first time, with its market share rising 5.3 percentage points to 24.4%.
LG Electronics Inc., another South Korean manufacturer, moved up to second place thanks to its vigorous capital investment and increased sales of plasma TVs in North America. Its market share climbed 5.7 percentage points to 22%.
Third-ranked Matsushita Plasma Display Panel Co. saw its market share edge up 1.6 percentage points to 20.1% as it opened a new production plant and sales to its corporate group increased. The plasma TVs made by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. captured the largest share of the domestic market.
Fujitsu Hitachi Plasma Display Ltd. fell from first place to fourth as its modest level of capital investment caused its market share to drop 6.8 percentage points to 18%. Pioneer Corp. moved up to fifth place from sixth after taking over NEC Plasma Display Corp, with its market share rising 4 percentage points to 12.4%.

Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa's five-day shutdown for Hurricane Sandy sent its net revenues and operating profits tumbling by double digits in the fourth quarter, parent company Boyd Gaming Corp. reported Monday.
Analysts noted that the already depressed Atlantic City marketplace was made even weaker by the hurricane's Oct. 29 arrival. Justin Sebastiano, a casino analyst for Brean Capital, said the hurricane caused Borgata to suffer an "abysmal quarter."
Borgata's net revenues were down 16 percent to $147.6 million and gross operating profits slumped 63 percent to $14 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2011, Boyd said. For all of 2012, net revenues fell 6 percent to $686.2 million, while operating profits declined 26 percent to just under $117 million.
Paul Chakmak, Boyd's chief operating officer, told analysts during a conference call that Borgata was "severely impacted" by Hurricane Sandy. He said there were more than 5,000 room-night cancellations in October and November related to the hurricane's lingering effects.
Borgata began to stabilize in December, including rebuilding some of its group business lost to the hurricane, Chamak said. However, he stressed that it is premature to speculate how well Borgata will do heading into the peak summer tourist season.
Like other Atlantic City casinos, Borgata closed down on Oct. 28 when the hurricane was approaching the New Jersey coast. Borgata did not reopen until Gov. Chris Christie lifted the city's mandatory evacuation order five days later.

Montreal's green space worth more than $4B: study
Montreal's green space worth more than $4B: study
MONTREAL – Montreal's forests, rivers, swamps and other natural areas contribute at least $4.3 billion in goods and services to the economy every year, a new study says.
"We wanted to show that protecting nature isn't an expense, it's an investment," said Karel Mayrand, executive director of the David Suzuki Foundation's Quebec office. "Our economy doesn't take into account the benefit of ecological services or the costs of the destruction of natural spaces."

text: Hello to the membership. I'm new hope to visit the site often. I'm starting a new bike on a new springer cruiser, I didn't like the front mounts that are available for the larger front tube bikes, didn't want to drill a hole in the frame so I am working on a bolt on. I will post some pics when I get it started. I want it to look ok so I'm going to powder coat it. I got the metal today and won't have any time this week to work on it. I hope to start it next week. I have enjoyed reading all the post. The ideas that you share are great and very helpful. I'm retired from Fire Rescue, built my first motor bike when I was 13. Now I'm 61 I got interested again. As a kid I started with mini bikes and motors, I had mopeds and a Cushman Silver Eagle and Honda 305 Superhawk. 450 Honda etc. I just got the motor bike fever and scooter bug again. Look forward to seeing the post and all the great bikes and ideas. I am planning to open a small motor bike and Cushman shop in May 08, as a hobby, I have some room at my office on a four lane with a good size garage. Have a Safe Ride, David S.

Lisa Collins who was brought back to life after cardiac arrest backing charity that saved her
A mother-of-three brought back to life after suffering a cardiac arrest is campaigning to raise awareness of heart disease so families don't spend Christmas with an empty seat at the table.
Lisa Collins (44), from Carrickfergus, was on a day out with a friend in August 2014 when she began to feel very unwell, with pains in her chest and right arm.
"It was just a normal day out shopping with my friend when I felt this terrible pain in my right arm that went across my back and down my left arm," she recalled.
Realising that something was seriously wrong, her friend phoned for an ambulance and Lisa was taken to Altnagelvin Hospital.
"In hospital they sent me for a chest x-ray, then wheeled me back to the ward," said Lisa.
"The next thing I can remember is I woke up hearing someone screaming. I didn't realise at that time that person was me.
"I'd had a cardiac arrest and my heart had stopped before I was defibrillated. I didn't realise what had just happened to me.
"Shortly after I heard a doctor close by on the phone talking about a female patient who had a cardiac arrest and could go again at any time, and I can remember thinking to myself 'that poor woman', having no idea he actually meant me."
Her ex-husband and three children rushed to the hospital.
It was only at that stage that she realised what had happened.
"I had actually died and been brought back to life," she added.
A few days later, Lisa was fitted with two stents in one of her coronary arteries before being released from hospital.
Since the cardiac arrest, Lisa has tried to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
"Before this all happened I had never been sick and had always considered myself in good health, though I did smoke," Lisa explained.
"Now I do my best to stay as healthy as I can and am out quite a bit walking the dog. I haven't smoked since the day it happened."
Her family have also played a big role in her recovery.
"My family have been so supportive and it has brought us closer in a way, even though it was a very scary experience for everyone," added Lisa.
"One year exactly after it happened, they held a surprise 'first' birthday party for me with a cake and balloons saying you're one today.
"It was brilliant fun and a bit of a light-hearted way at saying, yes, I did die, but I have survived. It's this that helps me through it.
"It makes every Christmas even more special knowing that we spend it together as a family when I could have been dead."
Lisa is now supporting the British Heart Foundation (BHF) Northern Ireland Christmas campaign to raise awareness of the heart research that is keeping families together this festive season.
Lisa herself owes a lot to the charity.
Her life was saved by a portable defibrillator and surgery to fit two stents - a procedure also developed with the help of BHF research.
BHF specialist heart nurse, Karen McCammon, said: "Every single day, heart disease kills five people in Northern Ireland and the lives of families are shattered.
"Lisa was lucky, but so many families will spend this Christmas with an empty seat around the dinner table."
To support the BHF campaign, text HEART to 70444 to donate £5.

'True Detective' Creator Confirms Season 2 Rumors
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Prime Time, HBO, Gossip, News, Renewals, Rumors,
Although two months have passed since HBO's freshman crime drama True Detective aired its season finale, fans can't let go of the rumors surrounding the next season!
Fortunately for them, creator and showrunner Nic Pizzolatto - who wrote all eight episodes of the first season - took to a podcast interview to confirm some of the season 2 speculation.
As it had already been announced that Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson were not returning for the next season, gossip has it that there will be three leads - two men and a woman - which Pizzolatto did not confirm, but did say that he's "deeply in love with each of them."
Pizzolatto did reveal that the show will take place in California: "Not Los Angeles, but some of the much lesser-known venues of California. And we're going to try to capture a certain psycho-sphere ambiance of the place, much like we did in season one."

Taylor Swift Inspires Lena Dunham When She Writes 'Girls'
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, HBO, Features,
Lena Dunham writes Girls when she's listening to Taylor Swift.
The writer and star of the huge HBO drama always puts her friend's records - famous for their tracks lamenting lost loves - when she's thinking of ideas for the show.
"She writes her own destiny in a way which is very unusual, especially for a young woman in the world of pop music. I wrote half of the first season of Girls listening to her Speak Now album and wrote much of the third season listening to Red," Lena said.
Lena, 27, is proud to call Taylor, 24, a friend and says she is always asking her for advice because she is very wise: "Taylor is a good friend of mine. I call her and text her all time. She helps me be stronger and make better decisions. She has amazing creative instincts. She's really a proponent of not feeling pressure from anybody else and recognizing that you have a better connection to what your 'brand' is than anybody else."
Lena Dunham Eyeing Kendrick Lamar for 'Girls'
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, HBO, Gossip,
Lena Dunham wants Kendrick Lamar to appear on Girls.
The actress and writer is desperate for the "Swimming Pools" rapper to appear on her show and she's already got an idea of an "inappropriate" storyline he could be involved in: "If I could ever get any rapper, right now I'm going to go with Kendrick Lamar. I would want him for something inappropriate. I'd say to him, 'I'm in a relationship, but I want you to know that I connect with you on a visual level.' He would make a nice addition to our cast. He's really busy though."

Idris Elba wants to appear on Girls.
The Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom - actor has made an appeal to the show's creator and star Lena Dunham - who he was a guest alongside on UK talk show The Graham Norton Show earlier this month - to write him a part on the popular program.
"@lenadunham Very funny woman. Can I come do a scene on your show? [sic]," he wrote on Twitter. Joking about a topless photograph of himself which he accidentally posted on the site recently, he added, "i promise, NO selfies... [sic]."
Although Lena is yet to agree to give the British actor a part on her show, she tweeted back, "@idriselba You are a pure pleasure, an honor to share the couch with you #selfiesforever PS thank you for calling me a woman, it made me feel all tingly inside <3 [sic]."

Lena Dunham Wants Jamie Dornan on 'Girls'
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, HBO, Features, Gossip,
Lena Dunham wants Jamie Dornan to star on Girls.
The actress-and-director would have loved the Irish 50 Shades of Grey hunk to share some steamy sex scenes with the cast of her hit TV show, but fears his high profile casting as S&M-loving billionaire Christian Grey has made him off-limits to get up close and personal with any of the characters. "Allison [Williams] wants Zac Efron. [We] requested Jamie Dornan, but the thing is, [we] requested him post-50 Shades of Grey casting. He's amazing, but I just feel it's too late," she said, speaking at a Girls premiere.

Jason Dohring Talks 'Veronica Mars' Movie
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Features,
With just two more months to go before the Veronica Mars movie hits theaters for their Jason Dohring - who plays Neptune's resident OPJ and
possibly probably Veronica's soulmate, Logan Echolls - opened up about the upcoming film and offered some interesting reflections on his three years shooting the series.
For starters, Dohring (who was married during the course of the show, mind you) seems to be a fan of serious method acting when it came to his character's relationship with Kristen Bell's Veronica: "A lot of that emotion was very real for me. I think I was in love with [Kristen] for the three years we made that show. Like, I truly felt like I would die without her, and I think that's what underlined everything people loved about them as a couple."
Although the 31-year-old actor kept a tight lip about the specifics of the film, he did offer a cryptic description of what to expect: "I think they'll be very pleased, but also at the same time, [creator] Rob [Thomas] doesn't tie the story up with a bow. Nothing comes easy in Veronica's world, so there's a very melancholy/noir touch at the end that adds these cool layers."

Lena Dunham Wants Sex in 'Girls' to Help Women
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, HBO, Features,
Lena Dunham wants the sex in Girls to reflect real life.
The show's creator and star has revealed one of her motivations when wrote the series was to show the love lives of normal looking women in more realistic settings than some programs that have preceded Girls.
If her series can make women feel more comfortable with sex, even its more embarrassing aspects, then Golden Globe nominee Lena will be happy. Speaking in the February 2014 issue of Vogue magazine - on which she appears on the cover - Lena said, "There was a sense that I and many women I knew had been led astray by Hollywood and television depictions of sexuality. Seeing somebody who looks like you having sex on television is a less comfortable experience than seeing somebody who looks like nobody you've ever met. Critics said, 'That guy wouldn't date that girl!' It's like, 'Have you been out on the street lately?' Everyone dates everyone, for lots of reasons we can't understand. Sexuality isn't a perfect puzzle... It's a complicated thing. I want people ultimately, even if they're disturbed by certain moments, to feel bolstered and normalized by the sex that's on the show."

Charlie Sheen to Make Amends with Chuck Lorre
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, CBS, Gossip, Internet, News,
Charlie Sheen wants to make amends with Two And A Half Men co-creator Chuck Lorre.
The 48-year-old star has offered an olive branch to his former friend - whom he fell out with after he was famously fired him from the program in 2011 - and promised to reach out to him in person following an appeal on Twitter: "Hey Chuck. I have an idea that u need to hear [sic] after I make amends to you and yours. Which I will do in person. xox C [sic]."
The post included an image of the a People's Choice Award the American series won in 2007 for favorite TV Comedy, where Charlie played Charlie Harper.
The decision to sack the Anger Management star was made following comments broadcast during a radio interview, in which he referenced Chuck's real name Charles Levine, calling him "Chaim Levine," adding that he was a "stupid little man." Charlie also slammed a number of Warner Bros. executives before the show's network, CBS, suspended the final four episodes of the season and fired him. He then filed a $100 million lawsuit against Chuck however the pair later settled out of court.

Exactly! If you look at it hard enough, you can tell it's the helmet of the solider behind her. Thats why SE needs to stop being so vague with this game. . . people will take the information and create stuff out of the top of their head.
I loved the scene when she was helping the Moogles. I've never laughed so much while playing a FF game.
I hated the first game. Thought the second was soso, but I'm really excited for this one. They overhauled everything and from what I've read so far, the game is amazing.
I thought I was the only one with this problem. Good to see that others were experiencing the same thing and that they finally fixed it.
You do know those egg cartons are there to protect the console from damage during shipping, right?
I'm black, and I never use any version of the N word. Its all the same no matter how you spell. . . a word used to put black people down. Only the ignorant use it.
Why risk it, when you can use Pokemon bank?
Gardevoir is so awesome. I have a lvl 100 in one of my old teams. So now she is fairy and has a mega evolution!
I would have thought the one on the far right was the strong independent one. . .
The Iphone 5 is the best selling phone of 2013!
Molynuex - That's not impressive. Tomatoes make so much more money. . . now that's impressive.
Yes, but you don't get many mobile games that can push numbers like that. Mobile games can be played anywhere at any time and are very addicting. It doesn't help that most of them are "play to win" games. Mobile games target anyone with a Facebook account and a smart phone and take little to no effort to start up and play. Console games are only played on one system . . . a TV and time are required. Why is he even comparing the two when they are a part of two completely...
No FF:15? Guess we have to wait another 5 years for more info.
If you get it at midnight it will still be 8 days. 12am is always the first hour of a new day.
@Abriael: Actually it does, and I remember doing the same thing in Tony Hawk's Underground with the EyeToy on the PS2.
@Colzer01: Good luck.
Now that's a great idea. This would be awesome for games like Mass Effect and other RPGs.
You can do this on the 3DS
Never understood why anyone would like Cloud. He spent the entire game pretending to be a bad ass else, yet at the beginning of the game He dresses in drag.
@Kingnichendrix: Americans buy more imported goods than anything else. As a whole, we consider Japanese brands like Samsung and Honda to be superior in quality. Even South Korean brands like LG are starting to become popular here. I work in an electronics department and I can tell you that most of my customers would rather go with well established brands like Samsung and Sony than the cheaper American made RCA and ProScan brands.
I would think they would release it mid to late November. K-mart has the release date at December 30th. I dont know if its a leak or a place holder date. December 30th seems like a odd time to release a console, so I'm just going to guess its a place holder date.
I'm a console gamer and I know that aiming with a mouse is a lot more accurate and faster than aiming with a game pad. I remember playing Unreal 3 online for the PS3 and you could always tell which players were playing from a PC because they were super fast.

Lord Byron the Derpda is a stuffed panda I found and bought. His face is lopsided, making him look somewhat angry, very intense, and very derpy. I hope you like me design!
OMG!!! This is soooo cute :D
In scrolling down, I thought that there whould be a whole panda, but there is only those small legs. I know from reading the description that that's because it's stuffed, but... whould you ever consider maybe taking out the legs?
Help me out? Anyone?
Hmm. Perhaps. I'm not sure a disembodied head would work better though. Maybe I can make the body more obvious? Or maybe put him in more of a sitting position...
I think a sitting position could work quite well. I like the handdrawn feeling of this, and the expression on his face is just great! I'm not too sure about the grass(?) though. I can't really put my finger on it, but something about it seems a bit off. Maybe you could try making the panda look more like a stuffed animal (since it's supposed to be one)? And add something that makes it unique, a little twist or something? Now it's just a panda, and we've all seen pandas before.
I like the design! Really good hand drawn effect. My only suggestion would be to try to give it a more plush, stuffed animal type body. But great design though!
Alright, now he is sitting, and he looks a bit furrier. Not exactly like a plushie, per se, but much better I think! What do you guys think? Critique is still greatly appreciated! ^_^
Awww! Panda! I like this a lot. I would say just tweak the front two arms like give it a lil paw touch and its good to go!
Good idea!
Victoria Bevington
I think the blurriness in the lines right underneath the panda's belly is a little bit distracting, but aside from that the design is adorable! And like Avanis said, maybe make the front paws a little more solid, but great job otherwise.
Front paws more solid? I don't really want to make them defined with claws and such, but do you mean less flat? They do look a bit flat... And will do on the blurriness. I was thinking that myself!
Victoria Bevington
Well, I don't think they need to be super defined, but I think maybe a little cleaner on the white lines. They look kind of hasty, though I understand if you're deliberately trying to keep that loose, sketchy look. That's just a little thing though; if I recommended you fix one thing, it would be the blurriness, definitely.
the colours are perfect, maybe adding texture would help and adding shading below him to add depth.
I defined the paws a bit more with the white lines and got rid of the blurriness (perhaps too much on that part). So...what do you think? ^_^
I would place the panda more according to the rule of thirds (moving the panda either up and left or up and right) to give it a bit more of an asymmetrical composition...then you can add more grass lines sweeping off the bottom toward the side to give everything a bit more movement and make the design less contained within a square shape. Very cute, I like it!
I extended the grass. I'm not sure about making him more asymmetrical. I sort of like him in the middle where he is. Thoughts?
Thanks! I was thinking that myself. I'm not sure what else I could add that would help, rather than just change the design.
you like pandas?
I like what you did with the grass much better =)
i like it as is! i cant really think of things to critique. its a very wonderful shirt and i would totally buy it!
awww cool idea, i like this latest version, especially what you did with the grass, much better than in the beginning. I also like the panda centred and wouldn't place him/her asymmetrical. Looks like you are done wishaway? really nice work!
Zotos Design
Very nice to see how you got here from the beginning, I think it is ready. Would look nice on a kids T too.
If you have time..? :D Tigy-wigy
i think its cool :D
Take a look at mines:
http://www.threadless.com/critique/103731/Angel_or_demon http://www.threadless.com/critique/103730/Don_t_shut_me_down
I think that the background is unnecessary . . The panda is cool, but you could take away the circles on the front to look like he is standing with his foot down. You could make it more cute too. Mess around a little bit, to see how it works.
James McKechnie
nice :) I agree with the foot thing though. ^^^
cute. i would many of andre's comments. the background makes it too busy for my taste. that said, it has been vastly improved from v1.
i would "echo" many of andre's comments. :)
great! it looks much better now :)
i would get rid of the background and make the feet look like real panda paws because the feet looks like suction cups.
i love it!
Okay, so now his front feet are touching the ground. Is this better? I also touched up the face a bit, defined the mouth a bit more. I'm not sure I like this one completely. I submitted the version before this and it got rejected, though, so it still needs some work. I'm not so crazy about making the paws more real for a couple reasons: It changes the whole idea of the panda being plush, I can't draw real paws very well (I attempted this already on Lord Byron), and I just don't think it would mesh with the rest of the panda looking so much like a stuffed animal. Thoughts?
this is so cool, i like the progression :)
This is awesome and I love it on the green. I like it being a plush; I would maybe use some gray to highlight the black fur a little in the lower legs. I would totally wear this though.
I think this is really cool (but then I am a hairy animal myself!) Have you thought about making the belly hairy to match the rest of it? Did they say why it was rejected?
If you get a chance please vote for my design here. Thanks!
Alright, make the hairyness more pronounced is what I'm getting so far. I can do that. Before I make the change, though, anything else I should change? They didn't give me a real reason for declining. They only said that I should go get it critiqued (headdesk). Maybe I need to clean up the lines a bit.
its pretty cOOl, and i love the detailings, ( and dont worry one of my design also got rejected ) , i dont know ho your design look'd first so, i think you should go for it and submit it now :))
Hmm, okay, smoother. It was sort of intended to be shaggy. But I suppose that isn't appealing? And I totally see how you mean on the grass background.
Okay,I changed the fur to make it neater and more furry in some places. I made the back legs slightly larger to accommodate for the larger front paws. They were starting to look disproportionate. I changed the background so that it is only green and yellow. What do? Better now?
I think I may like the darker background more...
you have been doing a lot of editing here. That's good. real hardwork. i think... for me... it's better if it's in a white shirt, then the grass is solid green. or why not change the background into bamboos cause pandas really love bamboo. although they eat it. :)
thanks for your critique. it's now up for scoring. i humbly ask for your support.. http://atrium.threadless.com/CBTF/subs/#/submission/grip/
its cool.. but maybe changing the tee color would make it nicer..
i actually liked the last version to be honest...maybe try putting it on some different colored tees
if any of you would be so kind... http://www.threadless.com/critique/103976/Aren_t_we_on_the_same_side
For me, all of the markings going on behind him is very distracting. I think if you added some subtle and muted bamboo stalks in the background it would make it so that he is more clearly the focal point. Since he is already on a bright colored shirt, it might even work to just take all the background out and just add shadows under him?
The panda is cute the only thing I would say is consider another color not that theres anything wrong with the one you got but I would like to see how it looks with another color scheme and find a way to make the panda more of focal point maybe a some shadow or more of a glow in the background
Ok I don't mean to be rude... here .. but I've read all these comments and it seems a large chunk are suggesting a change in tee colour or re=work the grass.. but I think what you need to do is either straighten the nose to balance his face... or bring down his left eye. adjust the ear towards the left.. try and make the panda face look like how dog tilts it's head to the side when it sees something unusual.
if you have time
Oh, perhaps you haven't seen the very first version. he's supposed to be derpy and unbalanced. I suppose that is the "charm." His face is supposed to be like that. It's intentional.
Aaaand, here he is on a lighter shirt, keeping the lighter background. He definitely seems to stand out more on this one...
unique character
I'd darken the belly fur a bit, and add more texture to the front arms. It took me a second to understand the forms of the body. I hate to go backwards, but I liked the green one better. I don't mind the green grass shapes, but maybe change your brush size and add some variation.
Looks great! Maybe a litte contrats between teh white of teh panda and teh black fur would accentuate it better? ;)
This looks great!

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan on Friday released his 2010 and 2011 tax returns, backing up his running mate in a fight with Democrats who have called for Mitt Romney to be more transparent about his personal finances.
Ryan and his wife, Janna, paid an effective tax rate of 20 percent last year. They paid $64,764 in total federal tax on adjusted gross income of $323,416 in 2011, when they filed an amended return. Their effective 2010 rate was about 16 percent.
Ryan's release of his most recent two years of tax returns was an attempt to back up Romney's position that giving out two years of tax information was enough.
Romney, who has released his 2010 return and an estimate for 2011, has come under fire for not making public details of his prior income taxes. Earlier this week he said he paid at least a 13 percent tax rate every year for the past 10 years.
In January, Romney released information showing he had paid an effective tax rate of 13.9 percent in 2010, mostly from capital gains on investments. The top tax rate for wages is 35 percent, while capital gains are taxed at a lower rate.
Romney's campaign posted the Ryans' returns on its website. "It's time to focus on the real issues in this campaign - turning around the economy and getting America back to work again," the campaign said.
Romney has drawn criticism from Democrats who say presidential candidates typically release financial information going back many years.
President Barack Obama's re-election campaign said on Friday that if Romney releases five years of tax returns, it would not press the former private equity executive to release more - a proposal quickly rejected by Romney's campaign.
Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, is one of the richest men ever to run for U.S. president. He has an estimated net worth of up to $250 million.
Obama's re-election campaign and its Democratic allies have featured Romney's wealth and refusal to release more tax returns in ads painting him as out of touch with the majority of voters.
Polls show the strategy is working. Independent voters in swing states have a lower opinion of Romney after hearing about his business record and personal finances.

A Whiter Shade of Pale
Summary: One-shot – Seimei sees the world in colors and his favorite shade is the one of his little brother.
Pairings: Seimei/Ritsuka.
Warnings: This story contains incest and Seimei who, as far as I'm concerned, deserves a warning of his own. Beware.
Disclaimer: I do not own any characters featured in this story. They all belong to the ingenious Yun Kouga.
A Whiter Shade of Pale
Seimei sees the world in colors.
Mostly he sees drab and plain colors. These are the everyday people he is forced to interact with and pass on the streets. People who don't deserve a first glance let alone a second one. They are no better than roaches in his view.
Occasionally though he will encounter someone who is a bright or unusual color. His mother, for example, is apple red while his father is dark purple. Worth some acknowledgment because they did have a few useful traits, but not enough to really stand out in his eyes.
Soubi is another. Soubi is a mix of blue and green. A tainted color unsure of its own identity as it is stuck between two different shades. It matches Soubi perfectly.
Seimei knows what color he is. Black, black, black an endless, perfect, midnight black. Beautiful, brilliant black. It fits him wonderfully. Black swallows everything and strikes fear and awe in people. Just like Seimei.
But there is another color that he loves even more. A shade he could gaze upon all day if he could. It was the color of his baby brother.
Ritsuka is white.
Pure, perfect, unsoiled white. He is the definition of innocence. He is clean and clear regardless of the red that woman makes him spill with her dirty little hands. Not even the tears he cries can stain his perfection. He is always white.
Seimei finds this fitting. He is black and Ritsuka is white; opposites but at the same time the same. Two startling colors that match so wonderfully against each other. It is all the proof he needs that Ritsuka and he belong together.
Seimei sees the world in colors and Ritsuka is his favorite shade of them all.

NCBA Encouraged by Administration's Newfound Commitment to Eliminating Growth-Killing Regulations
WASHINGTON – The National Cattlemen's Beef Association welcomed news that President Obama today, Jan. 18, 2011, signed an Executive Order titled "Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review" that seeks to review all federal regulations and eliminate job and growth-killing regulations.
"If there were one word to describe the first two years of President Obama's Administration, it would be regulation," NCBA President Steve Foglesong said. "From the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration's (GIPSA) proposed livestock and poultry marketing rule to the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) regulatory rampage – this Administration's regulatory agenda to-date won't just stymie growth in the U.S. beef cattle industry, it could kill the industry as we know it."
Foglesong said this action from the President is reassuring but needs to happen immediately. Specifically, Foglesong said EPA's dust regulation would essentially make it illegal to drive a truck down a dirt road. He said USDA's rule on livestock marketing is a perfect example of government overreach into the private marketplace.
"This Executive Order is a step in the right direction for this Administration. NCBA supports common sense regulation based on sound-science that will encourage growth in the industry," Foglesong said. "Unfortunately, many of the regulations that have been proposed over the past two years will have detrimental impacts on cattle producers' ability to do their jobs. We look forward to working with the Administration on this new initiative to eliminate job and growth-killing regulations and to move the U.S. economy and the cattle industry in the right direction forward."
