News Corp/Sky merger 'attractive', says IPA
The proposed merger between News Corporation and BSkyB would result in "lots of opportunities" for the media-buying industry, according to agency association the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising (IPA).
Geoff Russell: director of media affairs at the IPA
Earlier this month, culture secretary Jeremy Hunt said he would allow the merger to go through if Sky hived off Sky News into a separate company, under a number of conditions. Interested parties have until Monday to respond to a consultation about the proposals.
Since News Corp made a move to buy the 60.9% of Sky it does not already own in June, opposition has mounted against the deal, but the IPA, which is usually wary of consolidation, believes it could be a good thing for agencies.
Geoff Russell, director of media affairs at the IPA, said the trade body was unsure what extra leverage [News Corp chairman and chief executive] Rupert Murdoch would be able to exert on media agencies through owning 100% of Sky, compared with 39.1%.
Russell said: "While putting News Corp and Sky together would create a huge brand, bringing with it fears of conditional selling – equally, it offers our members major opportunities for attractive cross-media packages on press, TV and online."
The IPA's position is at odds with that of an opposition alliance of BT, Guardian Media Group, Associated Newspapers and Northcliffe Media (both owned by the Daily Mail & General Trust), Trinity Mirror and Telegraph Media Group.
The alliance laid out its arguments against the deal in a letter sent to MPs and peers earlier this week.
The responsibility for media competition law passed from business secretary Vince Cable to Hunt in December, after Cable was recorded saying he had "declared war" on Rupert Murdoch to undercover Daily Telegraph reporters.
Russell said: "Hunt's fervent support for cross-media ownership and deregulation always suggested that he would be prepared to sign off the News Corp takeover.
"The floating off of Sky News – with an undertaking from Sky to meet its costs on a seven-year renewable agreement – has provided the minister with enough cover to bat away the protests of the BBC and the non-Murdoch press."
If the deal goes ahead, the loss-making Sky News will become a separate company, underwritten financially by News Corp and News Corp will not be able to increase its ownership beyond 39.1% for 10 years.

Simply gorgeous
By Nancy
from London
This ring is absolutely beautiful! For those of us with smaller hands, this ring is just the right size to be believable. The look of diamonds without the cost.
Another Winner
By Love Shopping
from Paris Ont
I was not disappointed with this ring. It is very believable and of course the workmanship doesn't get any better than this. What a sparkler!! Tycoon is number one in my books for the quality of the diamonelle. I am a fan for sure.

Nice Design
By Holly
from Vancouver
The design is lovely. It is a solid ring for the price, and not too gody. The only two drawbacks is: the made in china stamp on the undergallery, and after having it just over a month and wearing it out at most 3 times a week, the platinum plating is already wearing off from the band. That does not look very nice. It would have been better being straight silver with no plating to wear off. I was hoping to keep this ring for years.

poured a beautiful copper color with a nice frothy white head. With aromas of toasted malts with hints of citrus. The first drink reveals a soft bitternes with a bit of caramel sweetness. The carbonation is nice and makes this american classic easy to drink. only the price keeps me from drinking this one on a regular basis.

Double Deuce into a standard US pint glass (what a disgrace).
Not going to do the whole rundown on this one. Sorry, just an adequate but unimpressive beer that gets lost among the array of far superior choices at Hi-Time or BevMo. Boring. Pour me a proper pint, e.g., a Fuller's 1845, any day of the week.

Picked up a six on sale for $8 So i figured why not.
Appearance : amber
Smell: Malty with a slight hop aroma
Taste: Malty dry and very little hop in the background, but overall a solid flavor.
Feel: Very smooth not too carbonated
Drinkability: I'm more of an IPA fan so this was a little to big in the malts to takedown but I could have one or two with a meal

12fl oz bottle into pint glass
A: Copper with a finger of slightly offwhite head
S: Quite bitter smell, very hoppy, though offset by a nice level of malts and a bit of fruit.
T: Again, the distinct hops dominate. Floral aftertaste. A bit bready but still fairly light.
M: Medium carbonation. Good, but I didn't think it was too amazing as others state.
D: Great for a specialty beer. Would go well with or without food, any time of day.

I usually skip over this beer when I'm at the liquor store due to the vast over-usage of nautical terms to try and sell beer. (SeaDog, Shipyard, Harpoon, etc.) It's nothing against the beer itself, just parody in general.
It pours a huge creamy head you could float a golf ball on. Very light smell of sweet malts, sorta like corn pops lol.
Theres more alcohol taste than you would expect with a sub 5% abv. A slight bitterness to balance the sweet taste of apple and wheat makes this beer great. I'll definitely buy it again!

Appearance is a rusty orange with a half inch fluffy white head which drops quickly to a ring around the edge of the glass.
Aroma is grassy and malty
Taste is very malty and grainy with hints of hops and citrus .
Goes down smooth and well carbonated, could easily drink a few of these
Overall this is a good beer and is a great "go to". It is very unique, but tastes great, is priced well, and not hard to find.

This beer drinking alone is aggressively both hoppy and malty at the same time. If feels like drinking an ESB at times but pairing it with rich foods cut the hoppiness out.
The aroma of caramel malts hits you right away thinking that this beer will be smooth but trying the first sip you get nailed with both the hops and the malts.
This is something I would drink again and recommend to others and have with rich fatty foods to cut the hoppiness down.

A - One finger head with very little lacing. The head was dense and the liquid was an amber brown.
S - Faint citrusy smell with a touch of butter.
T - Ripe citrus taste was balanced well with rich hops and left a slightly bitter aftertaste.

Anchor Steam Beer
7B - California Common Beer
Pour on 1/18/14 from a bottle.
Aroma 10/12
Woody hops aroma supported by a toasted malt. As it warms a light fruitiness becomes pronounced with a hint of caramel. The pear fruitiness starts to become the dominant aroma with the toasted malt and woody hops taking a back seat.
Appearance 3/3
Medium amber color. Carbonation bubbles. Clear. White frothy head that builds surprisingly quickly with excellent retention.
A thick white foamy layer sticks to the sides of the glass and stays there.
Flavor 17/20
An immediate toasted biscuit malt with a noticeable woody hop bitterness and a distinct salt from the water profile hits you on the first taste. As you drink notes of caramel and pear comes through.
The finish is dry and very crisp. Very clean flavor. Grainy malt aftertaste with a lingering woody hop bitterness.
As it warms a pear fruitiness starts to dominate a tad too much and a grainy malt flavor comes through. The woody hop bitterness dominates the aftertaste.
Mouthfeel 4/5
Medium bodied with a high carbonation. Crisp, dry, clean feeling on the tongue as it washes over. There is a mild astringency.
Overall 10/10
Overall Impression
This is exactly what a California Commons/Steam beer should be. It highlights everything that one looks for in this style of beer. The balance of the woody Northern Brewer hops is well balanced with the toasted grainy malt. There is a hint of fruitiness that comes out as it warms. The beer is crisp, clean, and refreshing.

Wow. A very tasty beer. Malt sweetness and mild hop bitterness are present. All flavors blend in well to make this a unique brew. Worth the 7 bones for a sixer. Hard to find in this small town so I have to grab it whenever I see it.
Earns at least 4 out of 5 swills in my opinion.

Pours an amber with an orange-ish hue. There is a thick, slightly creamy looking head present. After the beer settled a bit, there was a small amount of lacing. This beverage smelled of caramel, with a slight citrus aroma as well.
This beer has a certain maltiness throughout, with a very light citrus flavor. There is a small amount of hoppiness in the aftertaste.
This is a tasty beer, with a good flavor. For me though, it has a bit too much maltiness to really be viable for sessionability. However, as previously suggested by others, this is a great beer for summertime, so drink up!

A- a nice dark amber, nice carbonation decent lacing, and a good foamy headwith some retention.
S-Smells nice and malty with some toffee and biscuit, and a little bitter hops.
T- Nice toffee biscuit again, with the hops bittering, as well as some citrus on the end. on the dry side. a good bubly beer that doesnt lack substance.
M- The cabonation is balanced perfectly with the body, giving it a nice girthy mouthfeel while maitinaning superior drinkability.
D-Can be drank on a hot summers day, or enjoyed by the fire in the dead of winter. Give me a six pack to go

Anchor Steam Beer
A - Orange-Amber, 1 1/2 fingers of bubbly head, goes away quick. No lacing to speak of.
S - Hops, sweet fruity smell, hints of cherries.
T - Smell carries into taste, full of hop bitterness, which lingers to the back of the throat. Cherry-Fruit taste apparent in aftertaste. Taste seems to mellow out and get better as you drink it, possibly due to warming up.
M - Watery, little carbonation.
D - This is a good beer for a Lager. I'm not a huge Lager fan, but after seeing a raving review on Youtube, decided to pick it up on my last trip to Nova Scotia. It's not my cup of tea (or beer) but it's much better than most Macro-swill lagers on the market.

Appearance: Dark copper with half finger of head. Settles quickly to a thin coating of bubbling foam and almost no lacing.
Aroma: Very subtle smell. Hints of malts and fruits.
Taste: The subtle smells come through in the taste giving you a colorful blend of malts (almost sweet like caramel), grains, and a touch of hops. Slightly bitter and yeasty as it warms and finishes.
Palette: High carbonation (this one had me burping). Not too heavy making it an easy beer to drink. Somewhat dry.
Overall: A great simple beer. Crisp, clean, and easy to enjoy…just like us Californians.

after drinking lots of this in college, got away from it for several years and had again for the first time in recent memory at a backyard BBQ. Maybe some nostalgia involved but really enjoyed having this again!
nice light copper color
smell - good malt, not too complex
taste very even and smooth; mostly one note
feels rich and well carbonated but still good for regular drinking, don't need to sip
very enjoyable overall, maybe not enough here to be a destination beer but a great companion to a meal or for an afternoon break from the golf course, etc.

A light red/amber color. It has a thick head with big bubbles that disperse after a few short minutes into a thin white film.
Some fruity scents-- sometimes citrus, sometimes grape. One more aroma I can't put my finger on-- vanilla, maybe?
Initially more malty, with a not-too-bitter hop finish
Feels substantial, partly due to carbonation, partly to flavors.
Very nice, easy to drink beer. Not overwhelmingly strong, but it has plenty of flavor to keep you interested. I could drink this one often and seem to like it better from the bottle than from the tap.

What else can be said about this beer that hasnt been said.
Pours a nice light amber orange with a large white head that fades fairly quickly.
Biscuity aroma wrapped in Northern Brewer hops.
Tastes of biscuit and bread with some caramel. Fairly strong hop bitterness.

Pretty much the standard for the style. A classic.

Taste is malt, grain & fruity hops, firm & crisp, some bittereness but not too much. Well balanced and refreshing.
Medium bodied, fairly high carbonation, just right for the taste.
I just tipped up the bottle & was disappointed to find it empty already. This was nice, I want another one. Nothing extreme (thankfully), but faultless. Looks like beer, smells like beer, tastes like beer, had no faults. What mmore can you ask? I'm off to buy some more right now.

Decided to buy this beer after months of equivocating (poor college student - have to spend limited beer-money wisely), and boy am I glad that I did. Here's my review of Anchor Steam Beer.
A: Copper-colored with a thick, creamy head. The beer, although somewhat dark for a pale ale, is still very clear. I particularly liked the thick, creamy head (which was supported with lots of carbonation).
S: Very herbal and citrusy. However, I have to add a slight caveat for all the Advocates who like the over-hopped, Californian IPA's: This is not one of those over-hopped, overpowering IPA's that's loaded with northwestern Cascade hops. The citrusy and piney smells, while apparent, do not dominate the beer in a manner reminiscent of West Coast IPA's. The hops are perfectly balanced with the malt, much like imported English Pale Ales (this is great if you like British ales). It reminds me of Fuller's ESB.
T: Loved it. Very rich and creamy, however not overwhelmingly malty. No, in fact, the malt is balanced quite well with a leveled addition of piney, citrusy Cascade hops. This beer is a very well-balanced pale ale. There's also a lingering hop taste
M: Like the taste (i.e., very rich and creamy).
O: I liked this beer a lot. It's very reminiscent of Fuller's ESB. Try it with fish and chips (excess carbonation is good at cutting through oils and fats).

A - Served from 12 oz bottle into standard pint. pours a dark golden color. Little to no head when poured with a medium/heavy amount of carbonation, and a light amount of lacing.
S - Smells of fruit, maybe melon? Not to strong of a smell so it's tough to tell. Hops/malt come through as well.
T - Tastes of malt and some burnt caramel. Has a slight bitterness to it as well.
M - Has a nice tingle from the carbonation. Medium bodied beer that stays crisp the whole way through.
O - Solid beer that really embodies what a pilsner should be. I would say with this beer there is nothing 'new' about it. They set out to make a really solid beer and they did just that.

Poured a transparent burnt orange. A nice white head on top.
There was a nice malty aroma. Smells like bread, but more complex than that.
Taste like a sweet malt. A faint citrus flavor at the end.
A nice and light body with ample carbonation.
All considered, I would say its an above average beer. Quite drinkable. Would be nice to sip sitting on the porch on a warm day.

A: Poured an autumnal orange-golden hue. Less than a finger of a head but the carbonation was lively and discreetly sent bubbles up the glass the whole drink time.
S: Apricot, pine, barley (?)
T: This is such a well balanced beer. Bit of fruit (again, apricot) at the beginning with a palate cleansing dash of bitterness at the finish. It's well-hopped, but not overwhelmingly so.
M: Clean, crisp, medium to light bodied.
O: Anchor Steam has not failed to deliver on any of their beers I've had so far and this is no exception. Excellent pairer with medium to lighter fare (I had it with rice and chicken just fine) or on its own as a refreshing drink.

The cellulosome concept as an efficient microbial strategy for the degradation of insoluble polysaccharides
Trends in Microbiology, Volume 7, Issue 7, 1 July 1999, Pages 275-281
Yuval Shoham, Raphael Lamed and Edward A. Bayer
AbstractThe cellulosome is an extracellular supramolecular machine that can efficiently degrade crystalline cellulosic substrates and associated plant cell wall polysaccharides. The cellulosome arrangement can also promote adhesion to the insoluble substrate, thus providing individual microbial cells with a direct competitive advantage in the utilization of the soluble hydrolysis products.

The pharmacology of curcumin: is it the degradation products?
Trends in Molecular Medicine, Volume 18, Issue 3, 1 March 2012, Pages 138-144
Liang Shen and Hong-Fang Ji
AbstractThe natural product curcumin has gained considerable attention in recent years for its multiple pharmacological activities, but more efforts are needed to understand how curcumin can have these pharmacological effects considering its low bioavailability. In addition, it is unclear how curcumin exerts inhibitory effects against numerous enzymes, especially those that cannot accommodate curcumin within recognized binding pockets. By analyzing the similarities between the biological activities of curcumin and its degradation products against diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and cancer, as well as the preferential inhibition of some enzymes by degradation products, it appears that the bioactive degradation products may contribute to the pharmacological effects of curcumin. This possibility should be given full attention when elucidating the pharmacology of this promising natural product for various diseases.

The Structure of the Feruloyl Esterase Module of Xylanase 10B from Clostridium thermocellum Provides Insights into Substrate Recognition

- Background: Degradation of the plant cell wall requires the synergistic action of a consortium of predominantly modular enzymes. In Clostridiae, these biocatalysts are organized into a supramolecular assembly termed a "cellulosome." This multienzyme complex possesses, in addition to its well-described cellulolytic activity, an apparatus specific for xylan degradation. Cinnamic acid esterases hydrolyze the ferulate groups involved in the crosslinking of arabinoxylans to lignin and thus play a key role in the degradation of the plant cell wall in addition to having promising industrial and medical applications.Results: We have cloned and overexpressed the feruloyl esterase module from a 5 domain xylanase, Xyn10B from Clostridium thermocellum. The native structure at 1.6 Å resolution has been solved with selenomethionine multiple wavelength anomalous dispersion and refined to a final Rfree of 17.8%. The structure of a hydrolytically inactive mutant, S954A, in complex with the reaction product ferulic acid has been refined at a resolution of 1.4 Å with an Rfree of 16.0%.Conclusions: The C. thermocellum Xyn10B ferulic acid esterase displays the α/β-hydrolase fold and possesses a classical Ser-His-Asp catalytic triad. Ferulate esterases are characterized by their specificity, and the active center reveals the binding site for ferulic acid and related compounds. Ferulate binds in a small surface depression that possesses specificity determinants for both the methoxy and hydroxyl ring substituents of the substrate. There appears to be a lack of specificity for the xylan backbone, which may reflect the intrinsic chemical heterogeneity of the natural substrate.

Obama Says in Retrospect he Shouldn't Have Put Kids on TV — And Wouldn't Do it Again
Sometimes media outlets play fast and loose with the term "exclusive," especially the entertainment news shows. But Maria Menounos' interview last week with Sen. Barack Obama's family, including his two daughters, appears to be just that.
Sen. Obama confirmed on all three network morning shows today that the Access Hollywood sit-down would be his family's one and only.
In interviews with Diane Sawyer on ABC, Russ Mitchell on CBS and Matt Lauer on NBC he echoed the same sentiment: "We wouldn't do it again."
Obama said he got caught up in the "unique situation" of his daughter Malia's birthday.
But don't fret, America — Access Hollywood cranked out four parts from the interview, with the first airing last night, and continuing throughout the week.
Get ready to learn what foods the presumptive nominee likes and hates.

47 Mind-Blowing Psychology-Proven Facts You Should Know About Yourself; The Office Gift Guide; Saving the euro.
November 26, 2010 1:36 by Rasha Reslan
47 Mind-Blowing Psychology-Proven Facts You Should Know About Yourself
The mind is a crazy thing, and there is plenty we don't know about it. Take for instance the pure subjectivity of one's attention span. Remember the opening lines of that Madonna single Frozen, "You only see what your eyes want to see"? Well, it is a proven fact in psychology. Want proof? Check out the first video on this article. We guarantee you will be amazed by (and Kipp never uses the word 'amazed' lightly) just how selective your mind really is.
The Office Gift Guide
With Christmas round the corner, the promise of holidays, parties and new clothes might just be enough to get you through the mind numbing boredom of this 9-5 grind. But, wait: with Christmas parties come Christmas office parties, and then the obligation of Christmas gifts. Figuring out what to give your cold, unreadable boss may be a major challenge for some, but this article gives you a good number of suggestions for getting gifts for your office mates, whether it is your assistant, your boss, your cube-mate or your clients. The ideas are versatile, so if your firm doesn't do the whole Christmas thing (and obviously there are plenty here in the sand pit that don't), you can always use these ideas for leaving parties or birthdays.
Saving the euro
As another European country enters the limelight for its financial woes, it casts the future of the entire continent's economical well being in a gloomy light. But The Economist doesn't think everything is as bad as it seems. In this article it says of "all the talk of the euro failing to survive this sovereign-debt crisis, it should struggle through. Despite the troubles on its periphery, the public debt of the euro zone as a whole is not notably high by rich-country standards." Reassuring. Sort of.
A Website for the World's Materialists
You know we have reached the age of elitist internet snobbery when you read of an invitation-only blog for "5,000 tastemakers and celebrities [to] upload and tag images of their possessions." That is what The Fancy is, anyway. As far innovation in the world of cyber space go, The Fancy is pretty much ahead of the game. It's a product of recently started Thingd (pronounced Thing D), and it seems pretty vacuous to Kipp. But it turns out that Thingd is on the brink of something other companies want in on. Roger Ehrenberg, a New York City-based venture capitalist says "The field of entity tagging is exploding (…) Other startups are also working to categorize real-world objects." See what you think.
The Benefits of Weight Training for Children
One for the wall of weird. Though the headline sounds like something out of Soviet Russia, apparently researchers have found that weight training is beneficial for children; both physiologically and philosophically. According to Dr. Faigenbaum, when children weight train they do not pack on bulk in the way men and some women generally do but develop neurologically; "Their nervous systems and muscles start interacting more efficiently. A few small studies have shown that children develop a significant increase in motor-unit activation within their muscles after weight training. (…) So, in essence, strength training in children seems to liberate the innate strength of the muscle, to activate the power that has been in abeyance, unused." That's all we need, super strong rugrats running around…

The Serpentine Gallery Pavilion 2013 by Sou Fujimoto
"It is a really fundamental question how architecture is different from nature, or how architecture could be part of nature, or how they could be merged… what the boundaries between nature and artificial things." Sou Fujimoto.
Adding a novel twist to one of London's best-loved gallery, every year an artist is chosen to design and build a temporary structure outside the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens.
The artist commissioned for making the 2013 building is the award-winning Japanese architect, Sou Fujimoto. The iconic Japanese designer is the thirteenth architect to be selected for the Serpentine Gallery structure honour. At 41-years-old, Fujimoto is also the youngest architect to accept the Serpentine Gallery Pavilion project.
This year's pavilion is made from a lattice of steel poles, which have been put together in a similar way that a scaffolder would erect scaffolding around a building.
The poles of Sou Fujimoto are however of a much more delicate appearance than that of common scaffold. The structure looks incredibly elusive and pristine, the sort of formation you might find in the Ice Palace at Superman's parents' abode. Or even outside a Walt Disney-style castle, whilst temporary repairs are quietly taking place so that the Sleeping Beauty is not disturbed from her slumbers.
So impressive is this construction that it looks like a building fit for virgins to marry in or a place where the world's great peace leaders might meet to decide the fate of us all. Zeus, Thor, Mithras and Oden would look impeccable; each dressed in dazzling white as they hold council till dawn, sat at a glass table entwined by the Serpentine Pavilion.
Sou Fujimoto is the mastermind behind this sparse and heavenly structure.
In a description of his creation, Fujimoto said:
"It will form a semi-transparent, irregular ring, simultaneously protecting visitors from the elements while allowing them to become part of the landscape."
It has to be said that in speaking of this wonderful pavilion in such an understated way, Mr Fujimoto has to be a modest man.
A series of different events will take place at Serpentine Gallery throughout the year, including the Rock on Top of Another Rock structure by the Swiss artists, Fischli and Weiss. Located near the entrance to the Serpentine Gallery, this eye-catching monument comprises of two large boulders that look like they are balanced on top of one another.
As for the delicate, transparent and latticed structure of Serpentine Gallery Pavilion, you will have the chance to visit it throughout the summer and early autumn until it is finally dismantled on October 20, 2013.

"The card was a THANK YOU sent to folks who contributed to a fund raising walk for a fatal disease. My friend, who suffers from this disease, was pictured on the front with her husband. The card captured her positive spirit and in a bright color which matched the t-shirts color for our team, the words THANK YOU, were written. A personal message from me was on the back. I heard rave reviews from those who received them and many said they would frame the card."
"Everyone LOVED this announcement. Our baby was wearing pale pink so it matched the flowers on the card perfectly. Also received the printed cards a week earlier than the confirmed date - wow!"
"We used different fonts and changed the ink color to green for the details, and the card looked great! The cardstock is a nice weight, and the product arrived exactly on time looking just like the online preview. Our friends and family loved them, we are very pleased with this purchase."
"This card has a beautiful and simple design to show off the photo! Many other card designs are a distraction to the actual photo. Also love that you can put 2 smaller pics on the back!"
"The cards were the vintage style I was hoping for and arrived much sooner than the email said they would. I have received many compliments on the quality."

DISCLAIMER – I only own what is mine. I'm so sorry! It's been almost a month since my last update. Can't explain how sorry I am, I've been super swamped with school and practice(dance practice I have recital coming up) but I'll try and update every weekend if possible.
Chapter 8 (Jack's POV)
We got to the club pretty quick. I parked and we walked towards the building like nothing had happened, but the thing is I'm not sure anything did happen. I mean Kim just put her arms around me so she wouldn't fall off and she was pretty tired, I bet that's why she rested against me.
Or maybe she likes you Or maybe your over thinking this because you like her Or maybe both!
Seriously, is there any possible way to kill this voice?
"Yo!" I turn my head to see Jerry signaling us to come to the table.
"What took you guys so long?" he asks
"Traffic." Kim and I say simultaneously
We share a look before turning back to the menus.
"Oh look hot wings." Eddie says in attempt to stop the awkward silence
"I'm gonna get a drink." Kim says before going over to the bar
"So what happened back there?" Grace asks
"What are you talking about?" I shoot back
"Don't give me that, you guys took way to long for there to have been nothing." She says leaning back into her chair
At that moment, as Kim would say, the witch approaches our table and sits in Kim's seat which is next to mine.
"Hey there handsome." Donna says
I can't smell alcohol in her breath so she's not drunk, but by the way she's talking she might as well be.
"Um, excuse me but someone's already sitting there." Julie says as innocently as possible
"Well I don't see that someone." Donna says sounding quite annoyed
"Turn around." I hear a familiar voice
We all turn attention to a certain blonde standing behind Donna holding what looks like a Shirley Temple.
"Now you see." Kim says taking a sip of her drink
"I don't see much." Donna responds
Kim brings the cup down from her lips and shoots Donna one of her death glares.
"Get your butt, out of my seat." Kim says
I'm pretty sure everyone scooted away from them and as I look around I can see that our table is now the center of attention.
"I can place my butt wherever I want Kim, it is a free country. What are you and your loser friends doing here?" Donna questions standing up to come face-to-face with a pissed Kim.
"As you have just stated," Kim says setting her glass on the table "it's a free country, we can go anywhere we want and I'm the only one that can call them losers so back off."
Donna gives her a smug smirk and crosses her arms.
"So, are you going to sing?" the witch asks
"Well didn't come for the hot wings." Kim states crossing her arms
"But we are getting hot wings, right?" Eddie asks
"Sit down." Kelsey murmurs while pulling Eddie back down into his chair
"Great," Donna says you can see the sarcasm in her voice "We're singing to." She snaps her fingers and the Sheffield twins appear behind Kim
"See you." Donna whispers before walking away and she doesn't forget to purposely bump into Kim on her way to the stage.
"That was fun." Kim says while taking her chair and placing it at an empty table and exchanging it for one of its chairs
"There's no 100 percent chance that Donna hasn't sat in that chair." Milton says taking a sip from his coke, he was the designated driver.
"True, but at least I haven't seen her sit in this one." Kim says
"Ahem." We hear over the speakers and turn to the stage to see Donna, Lindsay, and Leila taking positions.
"Alright what song would you ladies like?" asks the DJ
"Dance Again by JLo solo version." Donna responds
"Alright let's some pop blasting in here." Yells the man
The song started and let me say that Donna doesn't exactly have the voice. I mean its ok, it's just kind of average. Not that I would ever in a trillion years consider dating Donna, I just like girls with stronger voices like Kelly Clarkson, Beyoncé, or Alicia Keys you know? The song ends and you can hear a few claps in the audience. Donna walks off the stage and back to her seat giving Kim a 'top that' look.
"She's just messing with your brain girl." Kelsey says
"Yeah, don't you have to go up there." Continues Grace
"I know, but I want to." Kim says and stands up "You girls backing me up or what?"
"Hell yeah!" screams Grace as she gets up with Julie
"I would go to, but then again I can't sing to save my life." Says Kelsey
"Good luck." I tell Kim
"Thanks." She replies with a smile before making her way to the DJ station with the girls.
Jerry gives me a wink.
"What?" I ask lifting my hands in defense
"Alright, seems like we got another girl group up here. What song would you like?" says the man
"Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis." Says Grace
"Whoa, that's a hard one." Replies the DJ
"Yeah, just play it." Says Kim
The guy mutters something under his breath and starts the song.
(Kim-Bold Grace-Italics Julie-Underline *combinations mean either those two or all three are singing together)
Closed off from love I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough and it was all in vain
Time starts to pass before you know it you're frozen Oh
But something happened for the very first time with you
My heart melted into the ground found something true
And everyone's looking round thinking I'm going crazy Oh
But I don't care what they say I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away but they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
Trying hard not to hear but they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal is to keep me from falling
Hey Yeah
But nothing's greater than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness I see your face
Yet everyone around me thinks that I'm going crazy
Maybe, maybe
But I don't care what they say I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away but they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars for everyone to see
I don't care what they say I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away but they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
(back to normal, still Jack's POV)
Everyone is up one their feet and clapping, minus Donna and her hench girls. I'm clapping so hard I swear my arms might fall off. Kim was amazing! Along with Grace and Julie, yet her voice as so angelic, hypnotizing, etc.
And he says he doesn't like her.
That's it as soon as I get back to the dorm I'm going on Google and looking up 'ways to kill your conscious.'
They walk off the stage and back to the table. I don't think I've ever seen Kim so satisfied with herself.
"Whoo!" Yells Jerry "Now that's a performance."
"Why thank you." Says Grace giving him a peck on the lips.
"Table #5?" says the waiter
"Better believe it." Says Eddie "Now hand me those hot wings."
We all laugh and the girls sit back in their original spots. The night went by pretty fast. Before I knew it I was walking back to my bike with Kim. An awkward silence fills the sir between us. I see her shiver slightly, it is pretty chilly.
"You cold?" I ask
"Not really." She responds
Suddenly a breeze blows by us and Kim really shakes. I take off my leather jacket and put it over her.
"What are you doing?" Kim asks
"Keeping you from being cold." I say with a smile
"I told you I'm not cold." She's about to take off the jacket when another gust of wind blows by and she hugs it. I let out a chuckle. She slips her arms through the holes to keep it from falling off. I drive her back to her dorm.
"Thanks for the ride," she started as she hops of my bike "and the jacket."
She's about to take it off when I signal her to stop.
"Keep it." I say and she raises a brow "Now you have something to remember me when you miss me."
Kim laughs "Good night Jack."
"Sweet dreams Kim."
She smiles and walks into the building. I ride to my building which is only about 5 blocks away. I walk into my room to find Jerry already asleep. I brush my teeth, strip down to my boxers, and fall onto my bed drifting into a blissful sleep.
This is my longest chapter ever! I'll try to update later today if I have time. PLEASE REVIEW it gives my life! Peace, Love, and give a monkey a shower ~A

Writing in the Wall Street Journal, Ryan Smith, a retired Marine infantryman who fought in the 2003 invasion of Iraq, urges caution about the Pentagon's new directive to allow woment to fight as combat infantry. Smith describes his experience in 2003:

In a post yesterday waxing enthusiastic about Chuck Hagel as defense secretary, Michael Moore called attention to a statement of Hagel that I don't believe had been previously much noted. Here it is, from September 2007:
The death of Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf recalls a moment in history that now seems far more distant than the actual twenty-one years.
Pete Hegseth, an Iraq war veteran and the CEO of Concerned Veterans for America, explains that Chuck Hagel is the "wrong pick at the wrong time" to lead the Defense Department:
Tom Cotton, the congressman-elect from Arkansas's Fourth Congressional District, writes in today's Wall Street Journal that President Barack Obamam should not pick Chuck Hagel to be the next secretary of defense:
Earlier this week, the State Department designated the al Nusrah Front in Syria as an "alias" for al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI). The head of AQI, Abu Bakr al Baghdadi al Husseini al Qurshi (a.k.a. Abu Du'a), "is in control of both AQI and al Nusrah." The designation says a lot about our knowledge, or lack thereof, of al Qaeda's clandestine international network.
Twenty-nine years ago yesterday, December 12, 1983, Hezbollah and operatives of the Iranian-backed Iraqi Shiite group Da'wa carried out a series of seven coordinated bombings in Kuwait, killing six people and wounding nearly ninety more. The targets included the American and French embassies, the Kuwait airport, the grounds of the Raytheon Corporation, a Kuwait National Petroleum Company oil rig, and a government-owned power station. An attack outside a post office was thwarted.
The Spirit of America announces the launch of the 68,000 Remember campaign:
Yesterday, the Treasury Department designated Ali Musa Daqduq, "a senior Hizballah commander responsible for numerous attacks against Coalition Forces in Iraq, including planning an attack on the Karbala Joint Provincial Coordination Center (JPCC) on January 20, 2007, which resulted in the deaths of five U.S. soldiers."
The New York Times corrects President Barack Obama:
"President Obama suggested that Mr. Romney was mistaken in seeking to keep 10,000 American troops in Iraq. But the Obama administration initially sought to do just that — and ultimately never managed to negotiate an agreement to allow any American troops in Iraq.
In Barack Obama's latest ad, the president's campaign claims, "A decade of war that cost us dearly and now for president a clear choice. President Obama ended the Iraq war. Mitt Romney would have left 30,000 troops in Iraq and called bringing them home tragic. Obama's brought 30,000 soldiers back from Afghanistan and has a responsible plan to end the war. Romney calls it Obama's 'biggest mistake.' It's time to stop fighting over there and start rebuilding here."
It's worth recalling President Barack Obama's foreign policy instincts before tonight's presidential debate on that topic.
In the Thursday night vice presidential debate, Vice President Joe Biden criticized Congressman Paul Ryan for voting to "put two wars"--those in Afghanistan and Iraq--"on a credit card." But as the Washington Free Beacon points out, Biden's suggestion that he didn't vote for those wars is simply false:
Yesterday, speaking at a campaign event in Florida, Vice President Joe Biden said, "I ask every day, what's the exact number of the fallen angels -- not generally, not an estimate, the exact number -- because for every one of those women or men, it has transformed a family, a family we owe. And thus far, as of today, there are 6,437 fallen heroes, 49,871 visibly wounded, and tens of thousands of invisible wounds -- posttraumatic stress, traumati

text: Coffee Tech to Jump-Start Your Java Americans drink about 587 millions cups of coffee every day, and that number is predicted to grow as coffee shops, home brewing equipment and news about coffee's health benefits become ubiquitous. Here's some new coffee tech to keep your inner barista happy.

It's made when Asian palm civets eat coffee beans for the beans' pulp, and then the rest of the bean comes out the other end, post-digestion. If you're gong to spend that kind of dough on your beans, you'll want to know they're the real thing. Good news: A team of Japanese and Indonesian scientists have developed a method to identify the discriminate markers of Kopi Luwak, aiming to prevent food fraud and ensure buyers that they've got the right animal poo in their coffee.

In a Jan. 19 editorial, titled "Kyoto's Big Con," the Wall Street Journal declared:
"The U.S. dropped its signature from Kyoto because arbitrary emissions targets are both pointless and economically damaging. No proof exists that lower emissions reduce global warming. The idea that human activity influences climate change one way or another is far from proven, given the overwhelming role nature itself plays in atmospheric changes. And if the warming trend of recent decades continues -- by no means a certainty -- it might well be a boon to humanity."
One might be misled into believing the Wall Street Journal's position on climate change mirrors the opinion of Conservatives and business leaders in the United States.
Fortunately, this kind of tripe has long ago been contradicted by, among others, Jim Woolsey (former head of the CIA), Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Indiana), Margaret Thatcher, William F. Buckley, Jr. (neither one exactly a closet liberal), and, more recently, former Bush Administration Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neil, who has likened the coming impacts of climate change to a "nuclear holocaust."
It has also been contradicted by such corporations as Alcoa, American Electric Power, Baxter International Inc., Boeing, BP, DuPont, Entergy, General Electric, IBM, Intel, Royal Dutch Shell, Sunoco, Toyota, United Technologies, Weyerhayser and Whirlpool Corporation -- to name a few.
No matter. It seems clear that Dow Jones (the parent company of the WSJ) places more faith in the pronouncements of the paper's editorial board than in the findings of more than 2,000 scientists from 100 countries reporting to the United Nations in what is the largest and most rigorously peer-reviewed scientific collaboration in history.
The Journal used to be known affectionately as "the handmaiden of American capitalism."
Today it is fast becoming one of capitalism's biggest buffoons.
