WOONSOCKET — The state-appointed Budget Commission has hired Smithfield Town Solicitor Edmund L. Alves Jr. as its staff legal counsel. Alves will be paid $175 per hour, minus a 15 percent discount the state has imposed on many of its employees. Though the budget commission was seated by the state, Woonsocket is responsible for Alves' fees.

PAWTUCKET — For Scott Podsednik, the left groin strain he suffered 11 days ago couldn't have come at a worse time. Podsednik, who had returned to the big leagues after a year's absence, was batting .387 in 19 games with the Boston Red Sox and giving them a much- needed boost in the outfield after they lost the likes of Jacoby Ellsbury, Carl Crawford, Darnell McDonald, Cody Ross, and Ryan Sweeney to injuries.
CUMBERLAND — Not quite a year ago, Bruce Stanford and his son, Jordan, video-recorded the first game of the Cumberland American Little League Major Division All-Stars' first foray into the Little League World Series in Williamsport. He did so because he wanted to "do it right." Stanford and son had placed a big screen in the backyard of his Arnold Mills neighborhood home, waited for dusk and projected the taped version for family and friends.
CRANSTON — In many ways, the tenor of these Governor's Cup clashes, pitting the top high school football seniors in Rhode Island and Connecticut, resembles that of a typical "big brother, little brother" exchange.
Rita C. Gouin
BELLINGHAM- Rita C. Gouin, 84, of Bellingham, MA passed away peacefully on Wednesday, June 27, 2012 at Milford Care & Rehabilitation with family by her side. She was the beloved wife of the late Robert J. Gouin. Born in Woonsocket on September 4, 1927, she was the daughter of the late Zephirin and Exilia (Lauzon) Remillard.
Irene E. Belanger
PORT CHARLOTTE, FL-Irene E. (Bulris) Belanger, 91 of Port Charlotte, FL, died Saturday, June 23, 2012 at home after a long illness. She was the wife of the late Leo J. Belanger. Born in Pascoag, she was the daughter of the late Oliver and Blanche (Trinque) Bulris.
PAWTUCKET — The newest member of the Pawtucket Red Sox played a major role in snapping the team's third-longest losing streak in club history on Wednesday night at McCoy Stadium. Starting pitcher Zach Stewart, who was acquired by the Boston Red Sox in Sunday's trade with the Chicago White Sox for Kevin Youkilis, turned in a splendid outing to help the PawSox defeat the Charlotte Knights, 5-1, and grab their first victory after nine straight losses.
PAWTUCKET — Mauro Gomez earned a spot on the International League all-star team last season, the third straight year he earned a midseason honor. Ryan Lavarnway was a Carolina League all-star in 2010, and Pedro Ciriaco picked up his last minor-league all-star honor three years ago in the Southern League. That being said, when was the last time Justin Germano, the fourth member of the Pawtucket Red Sox named to the I.L.'s all-star team early Wednesday afternoon, selected to a squad? "(The) 2002 (season) was my one and only," he said with a smile. "It's been a while."
WOONSOCKET — The Budget Commission last night awarded a Denver, Colo.-based company a contract to build a new $36.6 million wastewater treatment plant designed to comply with more restrictive anti-pollution regulations. CH2M Hill was one of three bidders for the project, including United Water and Veolia Inc., the current operator of the regional plant on Cumberland Hill Road.
Kevin Dubois of Lincoln, a Marine Corps veteran wounded in Afghanistan, throws the ceremonial first pitch at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket Tuesday night during the 33rd annual Armed Services Night, prior to the game between the Pawtucket Red Sox and the Charlotte Knights.

Filtered sunlight can provide major health benefitsJun 22 2010 Filtered sunlight can provide major health benefits Dr Frank Lipman writes that "our bodies use sunlight to help the skin produce the vitamin D it needs to build bones, quell inflammation, bolster the immune system and protect against cancer." He recommends that people expose themselves to the sun at least 15-30 minutes a day, two to four times a week. An easy way to open your home to sunlight is to use solar screen shades, sheer weave roller shades or Silverscreen shades. These shades will filter heat and UV rays from the sun, but still allow the light into the house. They are perfect for people arriving home from work who want to sit on the couch and absorb the sun's rays, but not the humidity. Silverscreen and solar shades also eliminate glare, making it far easier to read, watch TV, or use the computer. If one is really looking to absorb sunlight, try the roller shades. These shades filter the sun and are easily pulled up, allowing the sun in, and are just as easily pulled down when the summer light becomes too much. Related Products

Viewers (myself amongthem) were understandably outraged that this show, a show presumably focused on giving undiscovered talent a chance, was beingused as a relaunching pad to revive the fizzled career of this has-been (or never-was). Sure, there was minor public outrage surrounding Idol finalists like former MaverickRecords rocker Michael Johns and ex-Arista Nashville signing Kristy Lee Cook,too, but since those singers' albumsnever actually came out, Carly caught most of the flak. And rightfully so.
Click HERE for more details on the Carly Smithson American Idol scandal.
Anyway, I honestly can NOT believe the AmIdol producers are upto their old sneaky tricks in season 8. You'dthink after all that Carly hullaballoo, they would steer clear of such blatant favoritismand the inclusion of what are known in the Idolblogosphere as "plants." But...no. Along with an actual (Archuleta-associated!)Osmond and Jason Castro's littlebrother, this season features a particularly poisonous plant: Joanna Pacitti.
Joanna, whoauditioned on Wednesday night's Louisville episode, isbasically Carly 2.0.
Like Carly,Joanna is a former child entertainer--a moderately talented, moderately prettygirl aggressively groomed from an early age to be a big pop star. And likeCarly, who ended up getting dropped from MCA and becoming a waitress, things also didn't work out for Joanna quite as she or her Svengalis(among them Geffen Records honcho and frequent reality-TV figure Ron Fair) hadplanned. Despite appearances on the movie soundtracks for Legally Blonde, Nancy Drew,and Bratz, and having one of her songscovered by Britney Spears, Joanna'sone album for Geffen/A&M, This CrazyLife, was a flop. Just like Carly'sUltimate High. Joanna (as she used to be singularly named) was droppedfrom A&M in 2007.I can't say I'mat all surprised that Joanna'scareer did not take off. This Crazy Life,while capably sung, was a very generic album, hardly a vehicle for the nextsupposed superstar. I actually remember, surprisingly vividly, when some peoplefrom her label came by the Yahoo! Music office a few years ago to play Joanna'smusic video for the staff, in hopes of getting us all pumped up. They talked Joanna up excitedly for about20 minutes, like she was Madonna, Janet, and Mariah all rolled into one, before they finally played us....this:
The silencein the Yahoo! conference room was deafening. I was not impressed, and judging by my co-workers' lack of feedback, I assumed they agreed with me. And I was equally unimpressed with Joanna'saudition on American Idol this week.
Itturns out that Joanna's short-livedtenure with A&M/Geffen wasn'ther first career setback: Her firing from the touring company of Annie, when she was just 12 years old, wasapparently such a psyche-destroying blow, it became the subject of an in-depth Barbara Walters report. Justcheck out this 1996 clip and try not to retch:
Seriously,now. "The sun will come out tomorrow"? Puh-leeze. Cue the violins. Yes, I'm sure getting axed at such a tender age must'vebeen a truly awful experience for little Joanna, but the way Babs goes on andon about this supposed great tragedy here, it'slike all of Joanna's family died ina fiery plane crash or something. There are people auditioning for American Idol this season who are blind,who have ailing mothers to care for, who became unexpectedly widowed whilestill in their twenties. Joanna'sstory is not that heartbreaking. It'snot such a hard-knock life for her,really.
But ofcourse, that's how the Idol producers are trying to spin it. Justlike they made Carly Hennessy-Smithson'svisa troubles on season 7 seem like some horrific tale of injustice and woe, this weekthey ran constant-loop closeups of Joanna'stear-streaked face as she whimpered about her showbiz struggles and then finallytriumphed at her obviously staged audition. Sheesh.To the Idol producers'and Joanna's credit, however, atleast this time they didn't try todeny the (easily-Wikipedia'd) facts. When Carly was on last year, she gushed that she'd "never been in a studio before!!"(this despite recording her million-dollar major-label album with seasonedproducer Gregg Alexander of the New Radicals) and had "never sung in frontof so many people!!" (this despite performing with Bryan Adams at Dublin Castle).And the show never mentioned Carly'sMCA past until the public uproar grew too loud to totally ignore. At least Fox learned from that mistake, so withJoanna this week, the show came clean from the start. "You'reJoanna Pacitti! I know you! You were on A&M," judge Kara DioGuardiblurted out the moment Joanna entered the audition room.
Well, fair enough. But thatstill doesn't make it OK, as far as I'm concerned. Because Joanna'shad her shot already. She's had arecord deal--unlike most, less fortunate Idolhopefuls--so why should she be allowed to compete for a new record contract? Joannahas already tried and failed at the major-label level. Few people bought her music inthe past, so why should she be able to use the Idol platform to try to change that? And what makes the bigwigs at 19/BMG/Fox even think that American Idolwill change that?
The bottom line is, it's just notfair for Joanna to take away a spot from some unknown, unconnected talent who'snever had the opportunity to make a music video, get on a film soundtrack, bementored by Ron Fair, etc. And you can bet she didn't have to stand in line for hours in Louisville with all the plebes to get her spot, either.
It's just not right.
Plus, amusingly,in an interview once, Pacitti was asked if it bothered her that TV shows likeAmerican Idol so rapidlychurn out instant pop stars these days. She answered: "It's handed to peopleway too easily. I'd rather have my experience than overnight success."Well, I guess Joanna got desperate and changed her mind. But she'sgoing to have to really bring it during Hollywood Week for me to change my mind about her.

The good: The Sharp FX Plus is a side-sliding Android smartphone with a decent keyboard, good call quality, and 2GB external memory preloaded.
The bad: Battery life is short on Sharp's FX Plus, and the 600MHz processor slows things down. The keyboard keys are also a tad flat.

Summary: We bought this phone - and literally the day after we started using it, the screen started flickering and looking funny, then it wouldn't even start at all. We took it back to the store where we bought it, and they said it was a bad battery and replaced with a new battery.
No joke, less than TWO WEEKS later, the phone completely died again! This time I have no idea if it's the battery again or something else, but I give up. This crappy phone is not worth buying or using. Never have I experienced such a useless piece of "technology." Save your money and get something else. -

Summary: I bought this phone after the screen went out on my MyTouch 3G Slide. I liked the price for a brand new unlocked one I found on ebay. I compared it to my old phone with geekaphone.com and it was very comparable. It has a 600mhz processor, just like my MyTouch 3G Slide, but this phone is so much slower. Sometimes I get texts but the phone will not "wake-up" for several seconds after pushing the button or trying to unlock the phone with the touchscreen. Sometimes I have to touch the screen several times before it will actually change screens (but phone vibrates every time). Seems like it has the hardware to be a nice phone but it lags big time. I mean, it has gotten me by until I qualify for an upgrade, but it's agonizing to wait on it all the time.
The funky and dashing new sharp fx plus is amazing!
by MoStNeR7 on August 4, 2011
Pros: The funky and dashing new sharp fx plus is greatly attractive to most text-friendly users.
Cons: This is a new competitor with other android phones, and is definitely better than the original Sharp FX because of a not-so-laggy screen.

I think this is an unrealistic target. If someone wants to improve their vocabulary, they have to be prepared to work at it regularly. I tell my students that "little and often" is much better than "10 hours on one Saturday every 2 months!"
Learners should be prepared to read in English every day and try to learn vocabulary from their reading. Learners should be prepared to read from a variety of texts e.g. magazines, websites, newspapers and novels.
There are lots of sites that introduce vocabulary daily or look at the meanings of words. How about suggesting that your student should visit a couple of sites daily?
You could ask your student to read this : Why are words so confusing? | IELTS ONLY
In my experience, there are no shortcuts!!
Hope this helps.

[JURIST] Suspected terrorist Babar Ahmad [advocacy website] announced Wednesday through his political party that he will run for election to the UK parliament on May 5 from his cell in Woodhill Prison [official website] in Buckinghamshire. Ahmad has been indicted in the US [arrest warrant and criminal complaint, PDF] for operating a website that raised funds for Muslim militants in Afghanistan and Chechnya. Ahmad is running on the human rights platform of the tiny Peace and Progress Party [official website], which is also fielding Azmat Begg, father of former Guantanamo Bay detainee Moazzam Begg [JURIST report]. Corin Redgrave, founder of Peace and Progress, said that Ahmad will be a popular candidate because of the deep-seated sense of injustice about what has happened in Guantanamo. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Robert Parton and Miranda Duncan, two investigators from a special panel appointed by the UN to investigate the United Nations Oil-For-Food program [official website], resigned Wednesday in protest over a March report [PDF] that they said was too lax on UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan. Parton and Duncan accused the Independent Inquiry Committee [offical website] headed by former US Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker improperly down-played criticisms of Annan and allegations of impropriety against his son Kojo. Mark Pieth, a Committee spokesman, said the parting was amicable. AP has more. JURIST's Paper Chase has background on the Oil-For-Food program here.
[JURIST] The Italian Supreme Court [Corte Suprema di Cassazione; offical website in Italian] Wednesday confirmed a lower court ruling to keep tube-feeding Eluana Englaro, in a vegetative state since a 1992 car accident. The appeal was brought by Englaro's father, who believes that she would have preferred to die. The court rejected the argument because there was no specific evidence on Englaro's views of life and death. In addition, the court's opinion stated that to remove the tube required, "valuations of life and death that are rooted in concepts of an ethical or religious nature, which are extrajudicial." The ruling comes just weeks after US courts struggled with the analogous case of Terri Schiavo [JURIST news archive], who died March 31. Reuters has more. Agenzia Giornalistica Italia has local coverage.
[JURIST] The Connecticut Senate [official website] Wednesday voted 26-8 to approve legislation that would allow civil unions [SB 963 bill summary] for same-sex couples but specifically defines marriage as the union of a man and a woman. The Connecticut House [official website] has already approved the bill [JURIST report] and the measure will now go to Governor M. Jodi Rell [official website] for her signature. Rell has said she will sign the bill, making Connecticut the second state, after Vermont, to allow civil unions. AP has more.5:48 PM ET - Wire services are reporting that Governor Rell has now signed the bill into law.
[JURIST] The Council on American-Islamic Relations [advocacy website], the New York Civil Liberties Union [advocacy website] and the American Civil Liberties Union [advocacy website] filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday against the Department of Homeland Security [official website], saying DHS unlawfully detained, interrogated, fingerprinted and photographed a group of Muslim-American citizens who were returning from the 2004 Reviving the Islamic Spirit Conference in Canada. According to the complaint [PDF text], the treatment violated the plaintiffs' constitutional rights to practice religion and against unlawful searches. At the time of the incident, a Customs and Border Protection spokesperson said that agents were acting on information that Islamic conferences like the one the plaintiffs attended can be a means for terrorists to promote their cause. Read the NYCLU press release on the lawsuit and more from AP.
[JURIST] AP is reporting that House ethics committee Republicans say they are prepared to open an investigation into allegations against House Majority Leader Tom DeLay [official website].4:02 PM ET - Republican Rep. Doc Hastings [official website], chairman of the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct [official website] said Wednesday that four of the five Republicans on the ethics committee are "prepared to vote at the earliest opportunity to empanel an investigations subcommittee to review various allegations concerning travel and other actions" by Tom DeLay. Hastings' announcement was made in the hopes of breaking a deadlock that has kept the committee from operating since committee Republicans pushed through changes to ethics rules last year. Committee Democrats argued that the rule changes were specifically designed to shield DeLay and so have refused to allow the ethics committee to begin its work this year. Hastings said Wednesday that in order for the investigation against DeLay to proceed, Democrats must end the stalemate over the rules. AP has more.
[JURIST] In a special session Wednesday, the Ecuadorian Congress [official website] voted 62-0 (there are 100 congressional seats) to remove President Lucio Gutierrez from office under a constitutional provision that allows congress to remove a president when there has been "abandonment of the position." Wednesday's vote avoids a lengthy impeachment process and under the constitution, Vice President Alfredo Palacio will now take over the position. AP has more. From Quito, Diario Hoy provides local coverage.Previously on JURIST's Paper Chase...
[JURIST] AP is reporting that President Bush has signed the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 [PDF text, as reported in House], legislation that will make it harder for those in debt to wipe out their obligations.3:53 PM ET - A transcript of the President's remarks on signing the bill is now available. President Bush said:
Under the new law, Americans who have the ability to pay will be required to pay back at least a portion of their debts. Those who fall behind their state's median income will not be required to pay back their debts. This practical reform will help ensure that debtors make a good-faith effort to repay as much as they can afford. This new law will help make credit more affordable, because when bankruptcy is less common, credit can be extended to more people at better rates. The new law will also require credit card companies to let card holders know up front what they are expected to pay, and what the penalties they will face if they are late on a payment. When people get a credit card, they should not be trapped by a provision in the fine print. To make the system more fair, the new law will also make it more difficult for serial filers to abuse the most generous bankruptcy protections. Debtors seeking to erase all debts will now have to wait eight years from their last bankruptcy before they can file again. The law will also allow us to clamp down on bankruptcy mills that make their money by advising abusers on how to game the system. America is a nation of personal responsibility where people are expected to meet their obligations. We're also a nation of fairness and compassion where those who need it most are afforded a fresh start. The act of Congress I sign today will protect those who legitimately need help, stop those who try to commit fraud, and bring greater stability and fairness to our financial system.
[JURIST] The US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia said Wednesday that it will not reconsider its earlier decision [PDF opinion; JURIST report] barring the DOJ from seeking a $280 billion penalty in its racketeering lawsuit against tobacco companies. In February, the court ruled that the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act [text] permits the government to seek only forward-looking remedies and does not allow disgorgement penalties. The appeals court divided 3-3 on whether to grant the DOJ's request for a full court reconsideration of the panel decision, and Associate Attorney General Robert McCallum said Wednesday "In the wake of the tied vote ... the United States will carefully review its options and make a determination in the near future as to what course of action it will pursue." The DOJ provides background on the tobacco litigation, including case documents. AP has more.
[JURIST] The National Education Association [union website] and individual school districts in Texas, Michigan and Vermont filed a lawsuit Wednesday [NEA press release] seeking to force the federal government to pay more of the costs incurred under the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) [PDF text; executive summary; US Dept. Ed. fact sheet]. According to the complaint [PDF, NEA case summary], NCLB requirements force school districts to divert resources or risk being shut down. Wednesday's action is the first-ever national lawsuit to be filed, but individual states are also taking steps to challenge the Education Department's mandate under NCLB. Earlier this month, Connecticut's attorney general announced that state's intention to file a constitutional challenge [JURIST report] to the law and yesterday, Utah's legislature passed a bill [JURIST report] requiring state education officials to comply with the state's goals before considering NCLB provisions. The NEA has set up a NCLB lawsuit website. Bloomberg has more.
[JURIST] The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia [official website] Wednesday charged a defense witness for Slobodan Milosevic [JURIST news archive] with contempt of court for refusing to testify while Milosevic was not in court due to illness. Judge Patrick Robinson charged Kosovo Serb leader Kosta Bulatovic with contempt for "knowingly and willfully interfered with the administration of justice by contumaciously refusing to answer questions asked by the prosecutor." Bulatovic now faces a maximum prison sentence of 7 years or a 100,000 euro fine, or both. The contempt hearing will resume May 5, allowing Bulatovic more time to consult a lawyer. Meanwhile, defense lawyers appointed by the ICTY to help Milosevic conduct his defense have told the court that the tribunal should not continue the trial while Milosevic is ill because it would amount to an impermissible trial in absentia. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Twelve NGOs representing Iraq's minority ethnic groups have promised to work together with the transitional government to ensure that minority rights will be protected under the permanent Iraqi constitution [JURIST news archive] to be drafted by the new National Assembly. The groups concluded a two-day conference in Baghdad Tuesday called "to highlight the fact that Iraqi minorities have the right to be involved in the preparation and writing of the new constitution to ensure our rights are the same as other groups such as the Muslims and Christians." Citing concerns that there has been little follow-through on promises of government participation given by larger parties, conference participants said if they did nothing they were "afraid that we will lose our rights when they write the constitution." IRIN News has more.
[JURIST] Leading Wednesday's corporations and securities law news, KPMG LLP [corporate website], the US unit of accounting firm KPMG International [corporate website], has agreed to pay $22.5 million to settle with the SEC [official website] over charges that it allowed Xerox Corp. [corporate website] to manipulate its accounting practices to close a $3 billion gap between actual operating results and the results reported to the investing public. The settlement resolves the civil suit brought by the agency which implicated KPMG and certain partners in the accounting fraud. KPMG will pay a $10 million civil fine, $9.8 million in restitution, and $2.6 million in interest. KPMG will neither admit nor deny wrongdoing but will make a series of reforms to prevent future violations of securities laws. Read the KPMG LLP press release [PDF]. Read the SEC press release, litigation release, and administrative proceeding [PDF]. AP has more.In other news...
[JURIST] AP is reporting that US District Judge Leonie Brinkema has scheduled a Friday hearing [AP story] to accept the guilty plea [JURIST report] of 9/11 terror suspect Zacarias Moussaoui [JURIST news archive].3:31 PM ET - The order noting that "the court finds that the defendant is fully competent to plead guilty to the indictment" is now online [PDF].
[JURIST] In the latest of several attacks on the federal judiciary, House Majority Leader Tom DeLay [official website] has called the work of Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy [Oyez biography] "incredibly outrageous." In a Tuesday interview with Fox News Radio, DeLay said that it's outrageous that Justice Kennedy is "writing decisions based upon international law, not the Constitution of the United States." DeLay also criticized Kennedy's statement during a Court session that he does his own research on the Internet. Repeating his calls for the US House to find a way to increase the accountability of the federal judiciary, DeLay said that the House Judiciary Committee [official website] should investigate the clause in the Constitution that says "judges can serve as long as they serve with good behavior" and should seek to define "good behavior." Listen to recorded audio of DeLay's remarks on the judiciary. AP has more.
[JURIST] A legal challenge to the UK postal voting system [Royal Mail guide] set for Thursday could delay the scheduled May 5 national elections [10 Downing Street release]. John Hemming, deputy leader of Birmingham city council, is filing the High Court challenge, alleging that the postal voting system fails to protect the right to a secret ballot guaranteed by the Human Rights Act 1998 [official text]. Postal voting became a focus of attention in Birmingham in 2004 after six Labour councillors were accused of abusing the postal ballot system; a judge investigating the matter last month derisively labelled postal voting "an open invitation to fraud" [BBC report]. The UK Royal Mail [official website] estimates that nearly 6.5 million individuals will vote via the postal ballot system, representing nearly 15% of expected voter turnout. If the High Court rules in Hemming's favor, it is unlikely that sufficient steps could be taken by May 5 to ensure the validity of all postal votes, requiring either a delay in the election or a decision to remove postal balloting as a method for voting. AFP has more.
[JURIST] Ecuador President Lucio Gutierrez [Wikipedia profile] says he is not even considering resigning, despite massive civil unrest and threats of impeachment aimed at his administration. Gutierrez has faced increasing civilian protests against his government, especially since his announcement of a state of emergency [JURIST report] Friday and his firing of the Ecuador Supreme Court [official website in Spanish]. Gutierrez said Tuesday he had no fear of a renewed attempt at impeachment [JURIST report]. He said he planned to finish his elected term, scheduled to end in January, 2007. AP has more.
[JURIST] Political parties in Spain [government website] are in an uproar after the ruling Socialist Party [official website] Wednesday initiated a process for officially pardoning victims of former fascist Spanish dictator Generalissimo Francisco Franco Bahamonde [profile]. Franco signed orders for thousands of executions while he ruled Spain between 1938 and 1975, often consigning convicts to death by strangulation with a garrotte. The Socialists have set up a committee of ministers to examine Franco's execution warrants and issue pardons for those where the "minimum standards of a fair trial" were not observed. Right-wing politicians are angered by the refusal of the Socialist party to undertake the same review of individuals executed by the self-proclaimed Republican (anti-Franco rebel) government. Critics from all sides have voiced concern over whether the pardon plan would merely reopen old wounds and violate the unofficial 'pact of silence' currently in place concerning the country's history from the 1930s to the 1970s. Expactica.com has more.
[JURIST] The Iraqi Interim National Assembly [Wikipedia backgrounder] Wednesday demanded prosecution of a US soldier and an apology from the American Embassy [official website] after representative Fattah al-Sheik tearfully described being handcuffed and humiliated at a US checkpoint. Al-Sheik, a Shi'ite, is linked to radical cleric Moqtada al-Sadr [Wikipedia profile], who led several uprisings against the US military in 2004. The Iraqi National Assembly, meeting for only the third day of its session to develop an Iraqi constitution, adjourned for an hour in protest. A US military spokesman said that al-Sheik and a coalition translator had gotten into an 'altercation' at the checkpoint and US soldiers had stepped in and seperated the two men. He said that full investigation into the incident would be conducted and that the US military had nothing but the highest respect for the Transitional National Assembly and its elected members. JURIST's Paper Chase has continuing coverage of Iraq [JURIST news archive]. AP has more.
[JURIST] The Utah Legislature [government website] passed House Bill 1001 [legislation status page] Tuesday directing state education officials to comply with state education goals before they consider the provisions of the federal No Child Left Behind [DOE backgrounder] legislation. Utah is the first of many states unhappy with the federal education law [JURIST report] to pass a legislative challenge to it. Parts of the No Child Left Behind Act require states to fund federal education standards with their own monies. Utah legislators are relying on a small provision of federal education law passed by Republicans in the Clinton administration that holds that states cannot be required to spend their own funds to implement federal education provisions. Utah Governor Jon Huntsman Jr. [official profile] says he will sign the state bill when it is presented to him. US Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings [official profile] has warned Utah Senator Orrin Hatch [official profile] in a letter that if Utah applies the provisions of their legislation in contradiction with federal law, it may forfeit $76 million in federal education monies. The New York Times has more.
[JURIST] Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice [official profile] said Wednesday that Russian needs to increase its democratic development in order for the US-Russia relationship to deepen. In an interview [transcript, in Russian] with Russian radio station Ekho Moskvy, Rice said that there needs to be an independent media and that President Vladimir Putin should not have so much personal power. Rice also said that the US is following the fraud trial of Mikhail Khodorkovksy [trial website; JURIST news archive] to see what the outcome says about the rule of law in Russia. At a press briefing [transcript] Tuesday, Rice said that her agenda while in Russia included talking about "domestic developments in Russia and about continuing concerns about the course of both democratization in Russia and issues concerning the rule of law." Reuters has more. MosNews has local coverage.
[JURIST] Following up on a story reported yesterday afternoon on JURIST's Paper Chase, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee [official website] late Thursday postponed until next month its scheduled confirmation vote on the nomination of John Bolton [official profile] as US ambassador to the United Nations [US Mission to the UN official website] after a Republican senator stunned colleagues by asking for more time to consider the nomination. Senator George Voinovich [official website] of Ohio said that "I don't feel comfortable about voting for Mr. Bolton" because arguments made by Democrats, who oppose the nomination, persuaded him to take more time to consider the matter. During last week's confirmation hearings, allegations [JURIST report] were made that Bolton was a "serial abuser" of lower-level officials who challenged his views, prompting Democrats to argue that Bolton's behavior makes him unsuitable for the UN post. Bolton has also been criticized less aggressively on some of his harsh views of the UN as an institution. Without support from all 10 Republicans, the 18-member committee seems likely to remain deadlocked preventing Bolton's nomination from advancing to the full Senate. Reuters has more.2:55 PM ET - White House spokesman Scott McClellan said Wednesday that Senate Democrats are trumping up "unsubstantiated accusations" against John Bolton as part of their efforts to derail his nomination. McClellan said that the White House is confident that Bolton's nomination will ultimately be confirmed by the Senate. Reuters has more.

Just like Snooki, Jwoww and Pauly D ... Mike Sorrentino has signed a "series development deal" with the network for an unnamed project ... but it's a safe bet it's a reality show.
To mark the occasion, Situation even released an especially douchey statement ... saying, "I'm excited to continue my relationship with MTV ... Hopefully, there will be plenty more situations in the future."
with all that talent why wouldn't he get his own show. I just love cable and what they put out so we can sit in a chair while our brain turns into mush.
Why would anyone watch all these people in their own shows? They are barely entertaining enough to watch as a group. None of them have the ability to carry their own show! I predict none of their shows last longer than one season.
I don't dislike any of them as people, but I think it is a bit of a fad. And diversification of the same theme could backfire by offering more, just as people get bored of the concept. I also hope they're saving.
This is what Television has become. Total crap! I guess there are no intelligent writers anymore. Everything is reality TV. Who wants to see idiots that became infamous from getting drunk flexing their muscles and fighting. Who wants to see teenage parents make fools of themselves, degrade each other and once again more fighting. Reality TV su cks. It's about time for the adults to take back the airwaves.
The Jersey Shore phenomena is a mystery to me. Who are these people, what do they do? MTV from it's conception has been a counter-culture racist outlet, and I do mean COUNTER culture, as in against all morals. First it was the attack on blacks by refusing to feature black music videos-which freaked me out because Jew is the head of the outfit and I've never known a Jew to let anything in the way of exploitation to turn a buck. And now the attack against Italians-Trust me, there'll never be a "Zion Shores" featuring the uglier side of Jews [and it's pretty disgusting].
They're always trying to lay trips on the world regarding the plight in Germany and the admitted atrocities of the holocaust, but you'd think they'd learn a lesson and not repeat the sh*t that alienated them from the Germans.
I guess they need a refresher course.
Would TMZ please retire the word, "Douche" and "Douchey"? It's so 2008...and as it refers to women, sexist in an alarming kind of way.
wow, just look at his forehead!
he has more wrinkles on it than most guys in their 50's
goes to show you what tanning does to the skin. any dermatologist will tell you there is nothing short of a crystal meth addiction that is more harmful to your skin than tanning as it accelerates the skins aging process.
I expect his spin-off show to be similar to his attempted roast of The Donald. Quick, painful, and leaving nobody entertained.

Diner Reviews
If you want a nice romantic
feeling, but still want to go to a bar in DC, this is a great place."
Dined on 10/19/2013
We were visiting DC and staying in
Dupont Circle. We chose the restaurant because it was open late and had outdoor seating. I can't recommend the restaurant unless you're looking for a place to just sit and have drinks. The food was so-so. The service was slow-- we had to wait a while to get water, to get drinks, and to place our food order. Perhaps they were short-staffed but there didn't seem to be a large crowd. With so many wonderful restaurants in the area, it's good to know we have other options."
Dined on 9/8/2013
Maybe our waiter was having an off
night. Who knows? We dined around 7 p.m. on a Tuesday, which was a pretty light night. Our waiter seemed uninterested and a notch above intolerable towards our party of six. The food and drinks were good, but not worth the trip again for that level of service we received."
Dined on 7/24/2013
I made a reservation for 10 to
celebrate my birthday. Before arriving for my reservation, I corresponded with the owners (email/phone) and I was very pleased with how responsive they were! We had no problems getting seated on time and I was even able to seat a couple of surprise guests. While our waitress was friendly, she seemed really busy, although there weren't many other people there. I think she was also helping set up for a later event. Our dinner reservation was @8p: post-dinner crowd, pre-bar crowd, but it started to pick up by the time we left around 10:30/11p. The food was GREAT and the corkage fee and general prices were very reasonable. The music was also good, so I'll have to come back to check out the bar scene!"
Dined on 7/14/2013
They didn't have my Open Table
reservation when I arrived. Thankfully they did have a table that could accommodate us. Then we would wait almost 20 minutes between visits from our server. Some of our orders were wrong. Finally our server refused to split up our bill for us despite being automatically charged 20% gratuity. Once we pointed out that since we were being forced to pay 20% gratuity for terrible service, she finally split up the bill for us. But even that was wrong. Some orders were billed to the wrong people."
Dined on 6/9/2013
I made reservations for 10 and our
table was great, close to the bar, service was quick, and the staff was very accommodating for our friends that arrived late. The food was good and normal price. There isn't anything special about the place, nothing makes it stand out from the other area bars but definitely a nice place for big groups."
Dined on 5/18/2013
Great spot. Small but roomy. Its a
bit dark, but you adjust. The food was fantastic, great choices at different price and size levels - so you could eat light or not. Everything was lovely. Great service and yummy drinks. I will definitely go again."

This is a song about a whale. NO. This is a song about being Eridan.An Eridan Ampora fansong. I recorded this with a sore throat so maybe i'm nuts for posting it, but I sorta liked the outcome even if it isn't perfect. :)
I am a prince and I live in a ship and I aim my rifle and I shoot from the hip
and I have a friend I pity quite a bit
she said "grab your gun let's have some fun, share with me your perigees
I have responsibilities, I cannot run!""I do not wish the death of any living thing, I might be a killer but one day I shall be queen and put an end to slaughter, but until then I'm keen on staking claim to land and sea and everyfin between."
I played a game with eleven fools who told me not to break the rules
but when have angels ever helped me yet?
and magic isn't real and anyway it doesn't matter
cause no matter what I conjure it could not help be me deflectthe angry death of every hopeful thought
that I might be a lover or a fighter that I'm not
in someones spider web or net I could be caught
but I'm too bitter, better off alone, guess I forgotSo what? Do you want me to say sorry?
should I apologize, when you ignore me?
I didn't ask to be right or to be lonely
or to be hatched into an ugly storyI am a prince and I had a pair of princesses in two sharp squares
but then I guess I bored them both to death
And now I think my calling is to break apart and fall to pieces
better yet invent a brand new method of ascensionI'm impressed, you've managed to survive
but rest assured we'd all be better off dead than alive
cause when they get a-hold of us we'll all be batter fried
and I'm surprised that nobody's considered switching sidesSo here I am, respectfully and royally destroying
any chance of getting back on your good gills
And I don't want to be hurtful but if yellows the new purple
well then bleeding's the new breathing, don't you think I will!I used to wish the death of every living thing
I might be your killer but you'd never be my queen
so put away your laughter, pack up your hopes and dreams
I'm done with black back-handing and red pandering, it seemsThat I am just pathetic, I won't be overlooked
I'm past the point of fishing to get back upon your hook
I've made a manifesto, I've been bested by a crook, but never more!
I'm planning on reclaiming what he took…So what? do you want me to say sorry?
should I apologize, when you ignore me?
I didn't ask to be right or to be lonely
or to be hatched into an ugly story
to be hatched into an ugly storyOh my, this pantomime is getting gory
I am a prince and I live in a ship
I am a prince and I live in a ship~

Philippine Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima talks about China's decision to tell tourists to avoid "unnecessary" travel to the Southeast Asian nation.
China's Manila embassy warned of public protests amid rising tensions over a disputed island in the South China Sea. The National Tourism Administration warned Chinese tourists who are already in the Philippines to abide by the local laws and mind their own security, according to a statement posted late on its Website last night. Purisima speaks from Manila with Zeb Eckert on Bloomberg Television's "On the Move Asia." (Source: Bloomberg)

Mar 12, 2014Lots of comedy added with brutal hockey violence turned out to be way better than I expected. I may not be the only one. It was a riot. A big, fat, hilarious, violent, sporty comedy for any fan of sports, even those that are not fans of sports are sure to find the humor Goon carries right in front of itself.
Oct 1, 2013Esta pelicula me gusto, tuvo un buen argumento y buenos personajes."Goon" se destaca por el drama intenso que vive el protagonista en la pelicula.Me gusto la actuacion de Seann William Scott.
Apr 22, 2013A very funny movie that's crude, vulgar, and violent but has a huge heart. They did an excellent job with the casting, Seann William Scott is flawless as the main character and the supporting cast does an outstanding job. Despite all the blood and f-bombs there's a sweet side to this movie that makes it all worth while. So if your a hockey fan or just like a good comedy this is a must watch.
Apr 21, 2013Goon flops out oafish quirk that doesn't really work as its main selling point. Poor characterisation and predictable story doesn't improve the situation. The film improves at the half way mark but not in the spectacular way necessary to make it particularly good.
Mar 2, 2013It's a pretty enjoyable comedy that it definently worth checking out on Netflix. Only bad things I have to say about it is that it's a little predictable at times and Jay Baruchel is incredibly annoying. Aside from that, It's a solid comedy.
Feb 20, 2013Seann William Scott plays a former bar security guard who is enlisted to join a minor league hockey team as someone to beat the living hell out of other opposing team fighters, a 'goon' as the title would state. Definitely something to check out if you have free time. A great sports comedy that isn't a 'Slap Shot', but instead a one-of-a-kind.
Dec 5, 2012Why hadn't I heard of this film before? I absolutely loved it. A perfect sports-comedy full of violence, language, raunch, blood, and heart, the film's most important and resonant feature. The characters are great. I loved the cast; Seann Willian Scott is better than ever. Good script by Jay Baruchel. The surprise comedy of the year for me!
Nov 5, 2012Sean William Scott is nice, passive and likable. The only problem is this is a comedy and he's not funny the way they wrote him. Neither is anyone else for that matter.
Aug 14, 2012
Aug 10, 2012A violent ode to the hockey goon from Apatow writers Evan Goldberg and Jay Baruchel, this film is funny, with some surprising heart for a sports movie.
Jun 22, 2012
Jun 15, 2012
Jun 10, 2012
Jun 8, 2012Maybe it was because I was pretty intoxicated but I really thought this was hilarious at times. Sean William Scott is one of my favorite comedy actors. Worth 1 buck at a redbox!

Mar 31, 2012
Mar 30, 2012Passion for the sport? There is no passion for the sport here, unless that passion is based upon hate and violence. I am not a fan of hockey, and if this movie is what hockey is about, I never will be. The movie is just violence. It never "becomes" anything else.
Mar 30, 2012
Mar 30, 2012Wow, incredible comedy film, really the performance of Sean William Scott is really funny, the trama is cool, the screenplay is funny. Goon is an incredible and funny film.
When a film's clichés are so obvious that its cast points them out for you, you've got to wonder how hard it's really trying.
Goon is a hoot.
Put on your best Southie accent and say it with me: This film is wicked fahwkin' retahded and I loved it.

Apple Opens New Palo Alto Store
Apple's new Palo Alto, California Apple Store opened it's doors to a large crowd Saturday.
The 15,000 square foot store features the trademark all-glass front, while the rest of the single-story building looks like a tech-laden biergarten with tables of Apple products littering the floor instead of delicious hefeweizens and weizeneisbocks. .
The new location at 340 University DRive replaces the old Palo Alto location down the street famous for being Steve Jobs' local Apple Store. Job's would sometimes appear at the store during product launches including the debut of the iPad in 2010. In fact Steve Jobs was at the opening of the original Palo Alto store more than 11 years ago according to Steve Cano, Apple's VP of stores worldwide.
The new store's staff will number close to 150 compared to the 22 employees when Cano opened the old store down the street in 2001. The redesigned 360 degree Genius Bar is the largest out of the 16 Apple Stores in the Bay Area as well.
However, the most impressive aspect of the new store rests in the 250 odd steps it takes to walk from the old store to the new location. In those steps it's easy to see just how far Apple has come in the past decade.

How strange it must be to stock a store with products that will only be current for days when the new products are released. The new iMac, new MacBook Pro 13" Retina, Mac mini, iPad 4th gen, and iPad mini...
Actually, I think some of those are available now, but some are coming around November 2 or some time in December.

CHICAGO (April 1, 2011) – U.S. Soccer's Coaching Education Department will conduct a coaching symposium on May 13-14, 2011, in conjunction with the U.S. Women's National Team's match against Japan on May 14 in Columbus, Ohio.
The game, which will be played at Crew Stadium, home to the Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer, will be the first of two games against Japan in May. The U.S. Women will also play Japan in Cary, N.C. on May 18 for their final tune-up before the 2011 FIFA World Cup in Germany.
"This is an excellent opportunity for coaches to come support our women's national team as they prepare for the 2011 World Cup," said Director of Coaching Education Dave Chesler who will oversee the symposium. "The two-day event will provide an inside look into the final team preparations prior to Germany. We will also examine the tendencies and strengths of Japan, a soccer nation that has one of the most rapidly accelerating programs in the world."
