Aqua Magna
Shortcut: AM
"But the ocean remembers. Like history, the water holds many mysteries within its forbidden depths. It surrounds Mata Nui and covers it; it watches the island as it sleeps, and remembers."

Aqua Magna, or Great Sea, also known as the Endless Ocean by the former inhabitants of Mata Nui, is a giant ocean located on Spherus Magna.
The Great Sea was a location on Spherus Magna, and was ruled by the Element Lord of Water.
Over 100,000 years ago, the planet Spherus Magna shattered due to structural damage caused by Energized Protodermis. A portion of the planet, containing water, eventually developed into a natural satellite and began to orbit around the largest fragment of Spherus Magna. A small moon came to orbit around Aqua Magna.
Approximately one thousand years ago, the Great Spirit Mata Nui was passing by this moon when he was cast into sleep by the Brotherhood of Makuta, making him fall down from space. Mata Nui's impact from hitting Aqua Magna caused huge tremors throughout his body, an event referred to by his inhabitants as the Great Cataclysm. This also triggered and damaged his Energized Protodermis camouflage system, causing the creation of an island later named after him. The cataclysm also caused the island of Voya Nui to burst out of Mata Nui's body and land on the oceanic surface of the moon. Another result was the shattering of the Pit beneath the surface of the moon, resulting in the deaths of several prisoners and its guard, Hydraxon.
Mata Nui stayed on Aqua Magna, comatose, for around one thousand years. The city of Mahri Nui on Voya Nui broke off and sank into the sea, where it stayed for the next three hundred years. Various inhabitants escaped to the ocean surrounding his body, though most were later captured and brought back. Voya Nui was eventually sent back to the Southern Continent by the Toa Mahri, destroying Mahri Nui on the way. Shortly before Voya Nui's return, Mata Nui died, and his spirit was replaced by the essence of the Makuta Teridax. Mata Nui was soon resurrected by Toa Mahri Matoro, but remained asleep.
Soon after, the Great Spirit Robot was awakened and stood up, causing the destruction of the island of Mata Nui. Teridax, now in control, contemplated vaporizing the entirety of the moon's ocean.
After becoming familiar with his new powers, Teridax departed from Aqua Magna for Bara Magna. During this time, Mata Nui's consciousness entered the Prototype Robot and began pulling Aqua Magna towards Bara Magna to reform Spherus Magna. However, this task was interrupted when Teridax arrived on the desert planet and engaged Mata Nui in combat. Mata Nui was able to redirect one of Teridax's gravity attacks at Aqua Magna as well as Bota Magna, pulling the planets further into Bara Magna's gravitational field until they fell irreversibly. The Aqua Magna satellite went through the atmosphere, and a fragment of it broke off. This fragment impacted the head of Makuta Teridax, killing him. The rest of Aqua Magna collided with Bara Magna along with Bota Magna and reformed Spherus Magna.
Immediately afterwards, Mata Nui revitalized the entire planet, in the process causing a mass proliferation of underwater flora and curing the mutated beings within the ocean.
After migrating from the damaged Great Spirit Robot, several Toa of Water, including Gaaki, worked to bring the aquatic Rahi in the Matoran Universe into the ocean of Aqua Magna. The gold-skinned fusion created a fortress in the cliffs on the Aqua Magna shore for the Skakdi. Annona later teleported to the fortress in search of dreams to feed on, followed by Sahmad, Telluris and Metus. The gold-skinned fusion emerged from the fortress and began fighting Annona.
The surface of the satellite is completely covered by an ocean, devoid of any land mass. Two islands formerly existed on the surface: Mata Nui and Voya Nui. The ocean dominated the moon for its entire history prior to the arrival of Mata Nui.
The Red Star and smaller rock fragments orbited the moon along with a larger satellite. Lehvak-Kal and a small horde of Tahnok were also once in a low orbit around it.

In 2008, Lipscomb hosted the Atlantic Sun Conference Basketball Championships, the first combined men's and women's postseason tournament in conference history. Several major improvements to the athletics facilities came under his watch, including the multi-purpose, 5,000-seat Allen Arena, which was completed in October 2001. The baseball and soccer complexes were improved and a new weight room and a softball field were also constructed. Before his time at Lipscomb, Potts spent 17 years at Pepperdine. He began teaching in Pepperdine's law school in 1983 and from 1990-99 he served as the Associate Dean of Administration and an Assistant Professor of Law.

Cheesy Turkey Soup
User Submitted Recipe
This is a great recipe to use with your leftover Thanksgiving turkey. I often add more of the vegetables and all of our Thanksgiving turkey to make an even hardier soup. It is good served with yeast rolls."
3-4 cups cooked shredded turkey
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 stick margarine
1/2 cup flour
4 cups hot chicken broth
2 cups hot milk
3-4 cups grated cheddar cheese
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Sauté carrots, celery, and onions in butter until tender. (To sauté add in this order because carrots take much longer than onions.) Add flour, stir, and cook until thickened. Slowly add chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumping. When mixture is thick, add cheese a little at a time. Simmer until cheese is melted. Add shredded turkey. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Experience the superior quality and elegance of our cloisonne beads! Cloisonne beads are created by affixing a metal wire to the base bead to act as a color seperater. A powdered colored glass enamel is then painted between the partitions. After a firing and polishing process, the bead is electroplated in a gold or silver film and a beautiful new bead is born. The art of cloisonne was first developed in the near east. The art form soon spread into China where many production facilities are operated today. Combine cloisonne drops with our precious metal earring parts to create a subtly sophisticated pair of earrings that will be the envy of all your friends.

Friday Poll: What brought the heat at CES 2014?
CES 2014 is winding down, and it's been full of strange moments, celebrity appearances, and an unrelenting march of new Ultra HD and/or curved televisions.
Over the course of the week, some clear trends emerged at this annual tech takeover of Las Vegas -- some we expected, while others were a bit more surprising. Wearable technologies like new smartwatches and activity trackers dominated the show (they must be able to multiply as quickly as rabbits... or Bluetooth speakers, which appeared this year with a level of ubiquity previously met only by iPhone cases).

After years clouded by diminished service and high seat prices, the Caribbean airlift forecast calls for sunnier skies.
Much of the bad weather arose because the islands have relied so heavily on service from a single carrier, American Airlines. "Having all our eggs in one basket has always been a problem for the Caribbean," explains John Bell, director general, CEO, of the Caribbean Hotel Association.
Recently, however, service has broadened, led by an increase in flights by Caribbean-based Air Jamaica, as well as BWIA and LIAT. Air Jamaica is now offering more than 340 flights per week from across the United States, including Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and Phoenix. "We are spreading our market access deeper into the heartland of America," notes Bell. At the same time, broader access across the Caribbean is being achieved through expanded regional service by carriers such as the newly launched EC Xpress, a subsidiary of Air Jamaica.
"When it comes right down to it, the North American carriers will do what is right for their stockholders, and that may not be good for the Caribbean," Bell says. "They may move their planes to another area to meet demand, and you can't argue with that. The Caribbean airlines have no place else to fly but the Caribbean, so the stronger they get, the better."
The increase in Caribbean-based airline service has been answered by corresponding expansion by U.S.-based carriers, including Delta, USAirways, TWA, Northwest, United, and American. "Several air carriers are increasing flights to the Caribbean this fall and have either introduced new services or added to their existing schedules this past year," says Michael Youngman, director of marketing, Caribbean Tourism Organization. "These significant developments reflect a renewed interest in the region, and we expect that this trend will continue over the next year."

Health & Safety: The Health Services are great. However, when campus is closed there isn't a nurse practitioner there which bothers me a little bit because I feel like they know what they are talking about more.
Health & Safety: On-campus police are very good at patrolling and health center is very efficient
Health & Safety: Cameras are everywhere and officers are around when needed.
Health & Safety: The one time I used Health Services was when I'd cut my foot while walking, and needed a bandage. I had to dig through my bag for my ID card for them to swipe before they'd even look at my bloody foot. Other than that it was fine, but I was irritated that they made me wait without so much as a tissue to wipe off my foot.
Health & Safety: Well the only time I see security is when they give out parking tickets.

Aging Paper
Paper to be aged / molded, preferably a cotton rag, linen, or other natural fiber paperNote:Copier paper and inkjet bonds tend to not hold up as well to the washing process. The author suggests testing a strip of the paper before attempting to age your life's work.
Walnut ink crystals (the author prefers 7gypsies brand)
Spray bottle filled with water (a cheap from the travel section of your favorite pharmacy will do)
A few blank sheets of the paper to be aged (cut into strips)
Empty (and clean) jam or jelly jar
A container that can accommodate (flat) the sheet to be aged
If replicating an already aged piece of paper, a photograph of that piece nearby just for reference
Plenty of paper towels
A flat plastic board or pan the size of the paper to be aged. I use a flexible plastic placemat (not pictured)
Fill the jelly jar with some warm water and add a bunch of the crystals to it. Most inks have a recommended water-to-ink ratio, but the author prefers to guess. Shake until it's well-mixed and then empty into the dip pan. Test a strip of paper in it to see if it is dark enough. If it's not, just dump a few more crystals in and swish around until mixed. Save your aging fluid in the jar, so you can age many more sheets of paper without going through this step each time.After getting the appropriate color of dye, submerge the paper in it. Swish the liquid around. Sometimes the author agitates it with her hand, which seems to work especially well on cotton rag paper.
Once it's soaked for a bit (about a minute or two) remove the sheet onto some paper towels.
There are two things you can do once removing the sheet: let it dry a bit so that the ink is darker in some places or blot it immediately so it is more consistently dyed.
The author wanted this sheet to be more consistent, so she blotted immediately. Her blotting procedure just consists of laying paper towels on top and soaking up the excess water.
Now for the molding. Spray the sheet with clean water and dump some of the walnut crystals onto an extra sheet of paper.
Shake the paper over the sheet to be aged to distribute the walnut crystals in a semi-random pattern.
Spray the sheet with clean water again. The crystals will begin to "melt" and stain the paper around them.
Blot the ink crystals and "walk" around the paper blotting as you go. This puts lighter stains on the paper in different places. The key is to blot — not rub. Rubbing causes streaks which make your paper look like someone threw walnut ink crystals on it.
After you have achieved the look you want, transfer the sheet to a plastic mat and rinse the ink crystals off under hot water. If at this point you want more stain, the process can be repeated.

The authors alone hold the copyrights and licences to these patterns and tutorials, which means you CANNOT use their patterns to make something that you will sell to others afterwards. You can use them to make things for yourself. You can make some for your friends and ask them to pay for supplies. You CANNOT, however, ask them to pay you to do it as though you had created this pattern by yourself, or try to sell you crafts to a local store.
Think about it. Would you take a Prisoner of Azkaban book, photocopy it, put your name in big red letters on the front cover and try to sell it in your local library? The answer is, obviously, no. Well, selling crafts you have made but not designed would be just as bad!

Gabrielle Davis, a 19-year-old West Liberty volleyball player from Ohio, was rushing toward the officers with her arms outstretched while they were trying to arrest Tucci, the lieutenant said.
An officer grabbed her before she could reach the other officers, believing she would have put herself in the struggle between the officers and Tucci, the complaint said.
Both Tucci and Davis were charged with obstruction.
The crowd surrounded officers at one point and surged at them multiple times, Cooper said. At one point, he said, an officer was pinned down by several people in a pile.
He said the report from the scene didn't indicate anyone was injured. No officers were injured.
Jordan Stacey, a West Liberty's women's basketball player, apparently was injured in the fracas and posted to her Twitter account that she went to a local emergency room. She tweeted that doctors told her she had a cracked rib and pulled muscles.
She did not respond to requests for comment.
The four arrested were taken by paddy wagon to South Central Regional Jail. All were released on bond Sunday.
Calls to West Liberty's Sports Information Director Matt Watson, who is the son of James Watson, were not returned.
West Liberty President Robin C. Capeheart released at statement Sunday to WTOV, a Stuebenville, Ohio, television station, about the incident.
"West Liberty University has complete confidence in its administrators and respects their privacy in matters like this. We have no further comment at this time," Capeheart said.

Want to become a FrogWatcher? Find out more here.
Learn more about the national FrogWatch USA program.
A Citizen Science Program for Ages 7 & Up
We're looking for volunteer "citizen scientists" to participate in our FrogWatch USA program.
What does a FrogWatcher do?
Program volunteers attend just one training session that discusses the importance of amphibians in the environment, how to tell frog species apart by their calls, and how monitoring our local population helps to protect them. Volunteers commit to monitoring a local amphibian habitat (such as a pond or lake) and collecting data on what they hear, approximately once a week for about 15 minutes.
Why is this important?
Amphibian species are disappearing at an alarming rate across the globe due to a number of factors such as habitat loss, pollution, and disease. This has led to what many conservationists call a "global amphibian crisis," with one third to one half of all amphibian species facing possible extinction.
Though there don't appear to be any immediate threats to the species found locally in New England, the monitoring and data collected through the FrogWatch program will help conservationists to keep tabs on these populations and react to any decline much more quickly.
"Amphibians act as an important indicator species for healthy environments and are a vital part of the food chain, making up the diet of many other species; some that rely on amphibians as a sole source of food. Without amphibians, insect populations could grow out of control and potentially spread disease that could threaten human populations and agriculture.
The loss of the entire class of amphibians would have a catastrophic effect on the ecosystem. FrogWatch is an easy, enjoyable way for people who have an interest in amphibians and the environment to help."
Lou Perrotti,
RWPZ Conservation Programs Coordinator
What happens to the data collected?
Data collected in Rhode Island will be added to a national FrogWatch USA database (there are 30 FrogWatch USA chapters in 22 states), and will also be shared with the Rhode Island Natural History Survey. In 2011 alone we trained over 200 volunteers, and in April we were recognized by the AZA as the state with the most registered frog watchers that had already submitted data by the end of April. Since 2008 we have trained over 500 volunteers to monitor frog and toad populations in all 5 counties in RI.

I'm a writer. And a journalist. And a broadcaster (radio and tv). Also a voice-over artist. And some other stuff too. I've had a wide-ranging career both here in Canada and in England, Italy and France.All written down like that it seems like a lot, but of course (like it does for everyone else) it just happened as it happened; one day led into the next and major changes - from career to career, or country to country - didn't seem so dramatic at the time. Looking back now, it seems exhausting. And weirdly random. But that's how I like it; like Forrest Gump - a feather blown hither and thither on the wind, with life summed up as being much like a box of chocklits: you never know what you're gonna get.I'd like to choose this though: I'd love to have this children's book published. I love children and books. Also dogs, high heels and deep-fried soft-shelled crabs - but you can more or less buy those things. Except for children. For a book to be published takes a little bit more help and hope and luck and magic.I'm interested to read what others have written and hear voices I haven't heard before. There's a lot of talent and passion and hope here. It's an exciting place to be.

Mollie and George have very different reactions to watching their humans leave the house. Mollie plays or naps. But George... George worries. A lot.
George and Mollie are two happy dogs living a wonderful life in a loving home with their two humans. At least, they're mostly happy. George can't stop wondering where the humans go every day and decides to look for clues to explain the mystery."But George wouldn't think of fond memories just now,"With his tail in the air, through the cushions he plowed. "No nick-knack was safe - he was like a dervish a-whirl!"And the shambles he made would make your hair curl."Mollie is horrified as George turns the house upside down in his dogged hunt for for the truth. Waiting in the window for the humans to return, the dogs are sure they're in big trouble.With warm humour and in comical verse, 'The Other Side of the Window' is a beautifully illustrated children's storybook that explores the ways in which nameless fears can sometimes look like bad behaviour, and how we may need to dig a little deeper to discover what's really underneath what may look like just a great big mess.Inspired by the real George and Mollie, everything in the story really happened. The dialogue, well... that's probably true.

Anyone else paying attention to the World Cup? The draws were today.
The U.S. got one hell of a lucky draw. South Africa sure didn't, they will probably be the first host team in decades to not make it out of their first-round group. You can see the full draws right here. |

I personally hope the US does extremely well, only because it would be funny for a team from a country that really doesn't care to eliminate countries who really care. |

I can see the draw venue and the Cape Town stadium from the control tower, but i didn't get to see the results of the draw. I'm working tonight.
Great fun organizing Gripen and Hawks flying CAPs over the city. Sucks to see who we drew, but we haven't been doing too well recently anyway. Doubt it will make much of a difference. KBK |

Closing Thoughts
Then you have the power consumption levels, which is what this platform is all about with its efficient use of power. A regular desktop processor like any of the Intel Core 2s or AMD Phenoms are built with the opposite thinking, putting performance ahead and relegating efficiency or power consumption levels to a second set of priorities.
For general office type use the Gigabyte GC230D was surprisingly good. With 2GB of memory running Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit), which is our current preferred platform for testing, the system was quite snappy. Honestly I would have no problem using the GC230D on a daily basis as my work horse. When jumping from my e-mail client to Microsoft Word or Excel, there was no noticeable lag, working just as well as the more expensive quad-core systems.
Those wanting to use more complex multimedia programs, video editing or graphics work, will definitely prefer the power hungry quad-core systems. But for the general user that spends a majority of time reading and sending email, browsing the web, writing the odd document, and waste away the day on Youtube, they need nothing more than a single core 1.6GHz Atom processor.
Although all current Atom desktop mainboards are using the same 945GC chipset, we hope something better can be paired with this processor in the near future. Intel really needs to work on their integrated graphics solutions, which is hardly news as everyone has been saying it for as long as I can remember. In our eyes, the 945GC chipset heavily cripples the platform potential, making it almost useless as a modern HTPC.
When we tried reproducing HD movies, we found that 720p movies would play, but the frame rate was far too low, producing a choppy and unwatchable playback, while 1080p failed to work at all. At the other side of the fence, VIA claims that their competing Nano L2100 platform can handle 1080p content, which unfortunately is also a lie. Though the Nano L2100 does handle 720p playback quite well from what we have seen so far.
The Gigabyte GC230D also lacks a few other essential HTPC features, such as HDMI or even DVI for that matter. Considering we have seen other manufacturers being a little more creative with their Mini-ITX boards in the past, we hope Gigabyte will extend their Atom desktop motherboard line with something more exciting shortly.
Overall the Gigabyte GC230D is an impressive piece of hardware that has a few disappointing flaws that are not limited to this motherboard. Priced at less than $100, it makes for one cheap build, and also makes it hard for us to be as nitpicky as we have been throughout the evaluation. Sooner or later, we reiterate the GMA graphics must go.

Bellamy To Run For Congress
Updated: Friday, March 1 2013, 07:04 AM EST
Asheville Mayor Terry Bellamy says she will not run for a third term as mayor. Instead, she will throw her name in the ring for Congress. Bellamy will run against Rep. Patrick McHenry for his 10th district Congressional seat.
Mayor Bellamy made the announcement during Thursday night's State of the City Address. Bellamy says she's leaving the city in good shape and it's time to move on.
Bellamy has been on the Asheville City Council since 1999 and served as mayor since 2005. She was defeated in the Democratic primary for Congress last May.

It's the return of our adopted native son as Greg Warren comes back to town for a set of shows at The Funny Bone on the Levee. The St. Louis native started his comedy career here while working for P&G and left the company shortly after being transferred to Houston. He's been doing a stand-up ever since. Fans of Internet comedy may know his Wes Wesley character, which is based on Warren's real-life experience as a wrestler in college
. Those can be seen on YouTube as well as Flowrestling.com. The latter he describes as "ESPN for wrestling fans." Those videos have been a lot of fun. Every city I go to I get some wrestling fans that come out to the shows; it's really cool." In addition to wrestling and sports, Warren continues to make jokes about his family, friends and the foibles of growing older. His travels around the country inspired a popular bit called "One-Star People." He and fellow comic Henry Phillips produced a song and video based on the bit. "I noticed when I was staying in these three and four-star hotels," he explains, "they were filled with one-star people." $15-$17. Through Sunday, Dec. 2.

Reviews for Spaghetti with Bacon(11)
Sort By :
My mom made this spaghetti for me as a child 50 years ago with a few alterations. Diced green onions were sauteed with the onion using about 1 tbs of the bacon grease and then the tomato sauce and diced tomatoes and 1/2 tbs of celery salt was added (with the cooked bacon), The sauce simmered on the stove top while the spaghetti was cooked (spaghetti strands are broken into thirds. Add cooked spaghetti to sauce and leave for about 15 minutes for the spaghetti to soak up some of the sauce. Stir occasionally. Just made a it today.
My grandmother made this when I was a child and now I make it. The only thing is that in stead of spaghetti noodles we use elbow macaroni, and we do not bake it, we just cook it on the stove stop.
Living in Chicago over 70 years ago my mother made only this recipe for spaghetti supposedly given to her by Mrs O'Reilly,but when I went to Rome, Italy I was given this spaghetti in an Italian restaurant using exactly the same recipe( checked with the chef). My children, grandchildren and friends all love it.
I have made this twice and although I love spaghetti and bacon, I didn't really care for it. It's just ok to me but I could do without.
I'm not a huge pasta fan and don't like the typical marinara sauce, but I enjoyed this recipe. It has a smoky flavor from the bacon.

Winona Ryder Gossip
Winona Ryder gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Winona's light reading
Winona Ryder continues to work on Homefront in New Orleans. Here she is smoking out of her trailer and then heading to set with a copy of Meth & Method and a New Yorker. The film is about Jason Statham not getting on with a meth dealer played by James Franco. Bless the girl, she's doing her research which means, um, she must not be familiar with Jason Statham movies. Full Story
Winona & Jason
All I really want to say here, again, after yesterday's post, is that I still can't believe Winona Ryder is in a movie with Jason Statham that was written by Sylvester Stallone. Full Story
WOAH Winona!
I prefer my Winona Ryder with very short hair...but WOAH. She looks pretty hot with those extensions in. And of course, forever, it's that face. That face is 40 now. But to me, she'll always be 23. Here she is on the set of Homefront in New Orleans. Homefront was written by Sylvester Stallone (?!?) starring Jason Statham and James Franco. Full Story
Winona & Sparky

Here's Winona Ryder at the Frankenweenie premiere last night and at the premiere last week in Texas (black dress white collar). I can't tell you, and I know I have already, how happy I am that she's working with Tim Burton again because in my mind that brings her closer to Johnny Depp and I feel like if he could just see her now, you know?, see how fragile and beautiful she (still) is (again), it would be like .

Kristen Stewart's steeze is back

This is not, thanks God, the girl who, as Lorella described it, I love him I love himmed all over the place in your face a few weeks ago. Here's Kristen Stewart in New York last night at a screening for On The Road with Garrett Hedlund and Walter Salles. Full Story

Two Winona Ryder posts in one day! This makes me so happy. Here she is at the gala premiere of The Iceman tonight in Venice wearing Dolce & Gabbana. In black of course, always. And so beautiful, of course. And so... delicate and vulnerable, again, of course. I am addicted to her face. Have been forever. Full Story
Winona in Venice
Pascal Le Segretain/ TIZIANA FABI / Getty
I know I'm not alone in saying I will always care about Winona Ryder. Winona Forever. But for a while there, well, we thought it might never happen again, right? That Winona's time had passed. There was something that was faded in her eyes, almost as though she'd given up. Check out Winona in Venice for The Iceman (which I am afraid to see because Michael Shannon is already terrifying to begin with and adding "serial killer role" to that energy makes it even worse) still looking awkward as f-ck after all these years but .

What's your TIFF 2012 wish for the Gossip Genie?

Crazy Notebook fans will hope for a Rachel and Ryan reconciliation as both have films there. Twi-Hards might hope that Kristen Stewart will show up with Robert Pattinson by her side, forgiven. But, but, but... Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder are both expected ... It's been 20 years. Like, almost exactly. Full Story
The breaking of Johnny & Vanessa
Some more insight into the confirmation yesterday that Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis are over but first, the timing of the announcement was not an accident. They waited for all magazines to close on Monday before releasing their statement yesterday so that they'd be able to avoid the supermarket checkout this weekend. Full Story
Winona Ryder's Oscar History
Splash, David McNew/Vince Bucci/Fotos International/Getty
I am really into doing these Oscar retrospectives. It's been the best part of my day the last couple of weeks - Gossip Nostalgia! Click here to review all the previous ones. We're down to our final two. And since there are new photos of Winona Ryder, I wanted to give her some love. Full Story
SAG Possessed Bride: Winona Ryder
Why is my girl so crazy? Half the time she looks, like, stunned to be there. And it's not like Winona Ryder is a stranger to these occasions. Quite the opposite, in fact. Winona should be very familiar with an awards season. But it's still like a caged animal on display, big brown eyes darting around, ready to flee at a moment's notice. Full Story
Winona's stripes and bad hair
Winona Ryder, Ron Howard, and Kevin James were in Berlin today to promote The Dilemma. Vince Vaughn is not with them. At least there are no pictures of him with them. And I'm pretty sure, at the movie's photocall, I'd be able to find a picture or two if he was there. Probably didn't want to travel as he and his wife just had a baby. Full Story
Johnny Vanity Fair & Winona at 18
Finally. Something to do with Johnny Depp and The Tourist and he doesn't look like a bloated loser, the way he's presented in the trailer. You don't think I want to enjoy Johnny and the Jolie, together for the first time, the way we all expect it? Don't be ridiculous. I'm just saying that trailer scares me. Full Story
Black Swan is coming
It began in Venice, Black Swan being declared one of the best of the year and expected to contend at the Oscars. Then they went underground with the hype for a while, smartly I think, to make sure it didn't buzz out before the release date on December 3rd. So we're close now, a month away from the Golden Globe nominations and then it's balls out from there. Full Story

Miller Park, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
MILWAUKEE -- Jordan Zimmermann's family and friends made the short trip from his hometown of Auburndale, Wis., and did what most fans do before games at Miller Park.
"They were out in the parking lot tailgating since 3 o'clock today, so I'm sure they're all feeling pretty good right now," Zimmermann said.That's because the Nationals right-hander pitched his first game against Milwaukee, riding three Washington home runs to a 4-1 victory over the Brewers on Saturday night."It was definitely awesome," said Zimmermann, who once pitched a Legion All-Star game at Miller Park. "A dream come true to pitch in front of my family and friends, and everyone who came out to watch. I'm just glad I gave them a good showing. I didn't want to go out there and have a terrible outing. I thought I threw the ball well and got some quick outs. They've got a pretty good lineup and I was able to do pretty well."Zimmermann (8-6) struck out six and gave up five hits in six innings. The right-hander, who also played at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, has not allowed more than one earned run in each of his last seven starts.Afterward, Washington manager Davey Johnson was asked if he noticed any nervousness or changes in Zimmermann's demeanor."Nope. He's always the same," Johnson said. "He's got great composure out there. He was throwing the heck out of the ball from the get-go."Drew Storen and Sean Burnett each threw an inning of relief and Tyler Clippard pitched the ninth for his 19th save.Washington center fielder Bryce Harper was a late scratch because of a stomach virus and was replaced by Corey Brown.Brown led off the fourth by homering to left field, his first career hit giving the Nationals a 1-0 lead. It was the start of a six-hit inning off Milwaukee starter Randy Wolf (3-7).With one out, Michael Morse singled and took second on a balk, but was easily thrown out at home by right fielder Norichika Aoki on Adam LaRoche's single. The next batter, Tyler Moore, hit his sixth homer to left for a 3-0 lead."It was one of those games where Zimmermann was on," Wolf said. "I would have had to have thrown a shutout (to give the team a chance to win). Zimmermann is probably the most underrated pitcher. He has great numbers. I would have had to be near perfect just to get a no-decision."Milwaukee's run came in the fifth on Rickie Weeks' 11th homer of the season.Wolf gave up four earned runs on nine hits in seven innings, as the Brewers lost for the eighth time in nine games."It's a lack of the whole team getting together offensively and defensively," Milwaukee manager Ron Roenicke said. "When you are not consistent in those two parts for a long time, it is hard to get on that winning streak. Sometimes we're pitching well and we are not scoring runs."Game notes
Johnson, who is now 100-83 with Washington, said Harper will "more than likely" play Sunday. ... Brown was 0 for 10 entering the game. He was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday and played in his 11th game for the Nationals in the last two years. ... Milwaukee backup catcher George Kottaras, who was designated for assignment on Thursday, could be traded to Oakland as soon as Sunday. Despite a rumor a deal was finalized Saturday afternoon, Brewers' general manager Doug Melvin said before the game that "nothing is finalized." ... Weeks is 9 for 14 (.642) in his last 14 at-bats. ... The Brewers are 4-11 against the NL East. ... Johnson indicated infielder Chad Tracy might return Tuesday. He's been on the disabled list with a right groin tear since late May.Copyright by STATS LLC and The Associated Press

Sure, these days have almost every game sporting the newfangled 3D, but way back when, everyone had to live with plain old 2D. 2D, or two dimensions, limit the game to scrolling backgrounds, but some games even now make use of this basic concept.
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
Side-scrolling games present the world as viewed perpendicular to the direction the characters are facing on screen. With a heavy focus on lateral movement, objectives are often met by moving from one end of a stage to the other.

Demons are generally creatures of evil, usually from Hell, who are often totally untrustworthy even when they're not murdering everyone and destroying everything in their path.
Dragons were originally messengers from heaven, according to early Buddhist texts. In video games, they are mostly adversaries to be overcome, but there are some exceptions.

In the last 20 years, Virginia's manufacturing sector has declined by 46%.
Given the fierce competition worldwide to attract businesses, state lawmakers are examining whether it makes sense to restructure the Commonwealth's state and local tax system to remove financial hurdles to doing business here.
Every five years, Virginia requires cities and counties to update plans for development – how and where they'll grow.
Many communities assume growth is good – and some even offer tax breaks to attract new industries and businesses, but a new report by Charlottesville economist David Shreve and planning consultant Craig Evans suggests that's not the case if new companies hire people from elsewhere.
A huge, new, high tech greenhouse operation is coming to the New River Valley.
When the average tourist thinks about historic Virginia cities to visit, one of the most popular destinations is Colonial Williamsburg.
Officials in Virginia are bracing for the impact of the federal budget cuts that start trickling down. Lawmakers in the commonwealth disagree about what should be done with the sequestration.
So now they're dealing with the fallout: cuts to education, housing, healthcare, conservation programs – the list is seemingly endless. Virginia Democratic Senator Tim Kaine says many federal workers and contractors in the commonwealth will feel those cuts directly.

Michelle Obama Travels In High Style
Mar 6, 2014 @ 1:30 pmNever one to miss out on a style opportunity, First Lady Michelle Obama was spotted traveling in style on a recent trip to Miami. Obama opted for a black jersey dress with multi-colored kaleidoscope print by Etro, completing her look with a pair of black pointed-toe pumps. We wish we looked that good after a plane trip! During her visit to promote the Let's Move initiative, Obama went straight from her flight to a sit down with Robin Roberts where she discussed the importance of eating healthy and staying active. She has made multiple appearances in the last few weeks in support of the program, debuting on-trend style choices along the way. The First Lady always hits the style mark, and this look certainly gave her another sartorial win.

From LSU Sports
BATON ROUGE, La. – Catcher Kade Scivicque and right-handed pitcher Troy Whitty have joined the LSU baseball program and will begin attending classes next month, Coach Paul Mainieri announced on Monday.
Scivicque, a native of Maurepas, La., and Whitty, a product of Easton, Mass., are part of a 19-man baseball signing class that begins the fall semester at LSU on August 26.
The newcomers and returning players will engage in conditioning drills and individual workouts beginning on September 3.
The Tigers begin their six-week, full-squad fall practice session on September 29. The 2014 season starts on February 14 when LSU plays host to the University of New Orleans in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field.
Scivicque has played the past two seasons at Southwest Mississippi Community College, where he batted .321 in 2013 with four homers, 12 doubles, 37 RBI and a .991 fielding percentgage. He was named the Mississippi Junior College Defensive Player of the Year.
"Kade may end up being the 'sleeper' of this class," Mainieri said. "He is a catcher by trade and the kind of kid who is not very vocal but just puts his head down, goes to work, and plays his heart out. He's the first LSU player to ever come out of Maurepas, Louisiana. He sort of emerged as a late bloomer after his first year in junior college.
"Kade will add competition to our young catching corps for this season. He had an exceptional summer in the Northwoods League, where he racked up a lot of extra-base hits."
Whitty will enter LSU as a freshman after graduating from the The Dexter School in Easton, Mass. He posted a 15-1 record in high school, firing both a perfect game and a no-hitter during his prep career.
"Troy is a big right-hander with tidy mechanics and he knows what he's doing when he's on the hill," Mainieri said. "He has above average arm strength, topping out at 91-92 mph, and we think he will only get better in the next couple of years.
"We see him as a person with tremendous potential who with proper coaching and experience can develop into something special. Troy is the kind of guy that could end up looking like former great Anthony Ranaudo by the time he's finished at LSU."

By Manolo Serapio Jr
SINGAPORE, Jan 24 (Reuters) - Spot iron ore prices rose to
one-week highs as some Chinese steel mills continued to restock
ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday, although buying interest
was lean.
Data showing activity in China's factory sector quickened to
its fastest in two years should back further gains in iron ore,
but steelmakers may only aggressively boost their inventories of
the raw material again if steel demand picks up pace.
The HSBC flash purchasing managers' index for China rose to
51.9 in January, the highest since January 2011, as
manufacturers received more local and foreign orders.
Shanghai steel rebar futures climbed to a seven-month high
on Thursday after the data, but soon surrendered gains to trade
lower. The most active rebar contract for May delivery on the
Shanghai Futures Exchange was down 0.8 percent at 4,020
yuan ($650) a tonne, after rising to 4,067 yuan, its loftiest
since June 26.
Benchmark iron ore with 62 percent iron content climbed 1.2 percent to $147.70 a tonne on
Wednesday, according to Steel Index. It was the highest level
since Jan. 15.
'Some mills are still replenishing, they still want cargo,
but they don't want the price to move up so much. That's why we
are seeing limited deals,' said an iron ore trader in Singapore.
Price offers for imported iron ore in China, the world's
biggest importer, were steady on Thursday.
'We have not bought any new cargoes. We're still clearing
all our stocks before Chinese New Year,' said a trader in
Shanghai, adding his company hopes to sell its remaining
40,000-50,000 tonnes of iron ore inventories at higher prices to
recoup losses from previous cargoes.
The reopening of Australian ports after a brief shutdown due
to a tropical storm will ease worries about supply in the spot
market, and could make this week's price gains fleeting.
Iron ore hit a 15-month top of $158.50 a tonne on Jan. 8 in
a rally that began in December as Chinese mills rebuilt
stockpiles. The price fell more than 8 percent before regaining
some ground this week.
More iron ore restocking by Chinese steelmakers just ahead
of the Lunar New Year holiday in mid-February could boost prices
further, although a sustained rise will hinge on the strength of
China's steel demand.
China's steel demand is expected to rise 3.1 percent in
2013, 0.6 percentage points higher than last year as the economy
recovers, the country's steel industry association said on
Shanghai rebar futures and iron ore indexes at 0401 GMT

Google recipe search makes dinner easier
My bookshelves hold tons of cookbooks, but I've always used Google to search for recipes. It's been helpful to compare multiple recipes and see how they line up with the ingredients I already have in my pantry. I could take a bit of one recipe and add it to another and create a meal.
But now Google has introduced Recipe View, which allows you to filter out the non-recipe content from your results. In the past I've always just typed in "recipe" in the search box, and it filtered out most of the unwanted content. … Read more
