Chris Brown has been sent to jail after being kicked out of rehab, TMZ.com reports.
When Brown last appeared in court, a judge ruled that he should stay at a treatment facility for substance abuse and anger management because he was doing well and the program gave him an "adequate safety net." However, he was...read more
RiRi showed off her ta-tas in a completely sheer top during Paris Fashion Week.
Check out photos of Rihanna through the years
On Thursday, Rihanna flashed fellow party-goers when she showed up to the afterparty for Balmain's fashion show in a mesh top, sans bra. The outfit fit well with the mantra she recently shared withVogue. "If I'm wearing a top, I don't wear a bra. If I'm wearing a bra, I just wear a bra," she said.
Chris Brown is believed to be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and bipolar disorder, according to legal documents obtained by E! News.
The new information came during a hearing Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court, during which the anger management and drug rehab program Brown entered three months ago said in a letter that Brown's recent aggressive behavior is likely because of his untreated mental disorders.
Chris Brown avoids jail time, told to stay in rehab
"Mr. Brown will also require close supervision by his treating physician in order to ensure his bipolar mental health condition remains stable," the document given to the court states. "It is not uncommon for patients with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Bipolar II to use substances to self-medicate their biomedical mood swings and trauma triggers."

The final three designers create a look inspired by Rihanna's latest fragrance, Rogue. The two designers who make the pull are told that the challenge is not yet over - each designer is tasked with presenting Rihanna with not only their perfume look, but also two of their favorite looks from past challenges and two new editorial looks. The designers go head-to-head in an epic fashion show culminating in Rihanna choosing one of the designers to join her design team and ultimately named the winner of "Styled to Rock." Also Available On Amazon Instant Video and VUDU
The remaining four designers must create complementary looks for power couple Naya Rivera and Big Sean for his record release party. She wants an exposed midriff and asks that Sean's style move beyond his typical white t-shirt and jeans. But how will the designers create two looks in so little time? Help comes in the form of some very special project assistants. Also Available On Amazon Instant Video and VUDU
The cast creates looks inspired by old Hollywood glamour for Khloé Kardashian to wear at a Grammy Awards after-party. For the first time throughout the construction process, the designers receive no direction from the mentors. Instead, they must critique each other's work and use the lessons they've learned so far to guide themselves. Recording artist Ne-Yo is guest mentor. Also Available On Amazon Instant Video and VUDU

The media narrative surrounding Justin Bieber has spiraled out of control. He's this year's Anne Hathaway, the person whom it's vogue to hate. But this turn isn't completely unfounded. Over the past few years, Bieber has undoubtedly become a bit of a jerk.
He was charged for illegal (and seemingly racist) graffiti, pissed in a mop bucket, left his monkey in Germany and could anyone seriously forget this hat? But for non-Beliebers, there has always been something grating about the singer. Everything from his swoopy hair to his sugar-pop love songs seemed designed to annoy all post-pubescents on sight, breeding discontent which lay dormant until his penchant for leather sweatpants and hocking loogies made him impossible to ignore.
Then all hell broke loose.

Good ski pants, with an adjustment in the hem to allow for growth. The waist, however is not adjustable, so my thin 14 year old will have to wear them with a belt. They seem a little thin in the insulation department to me, but he says he often gets hot skiing so he thinks they are perfect.

Plane Turned Into Kindergarten - Georgia
While aircraft manufacturer Boeing forecasts that the number of commercial aircraft flying the world's skies will double in the next two decades, as many as 12,000 aircraft will be decommissioned by 2020, according to the Aircraft Fleet Recycling Association. What happens to these airplanes? Many will be abandoned at the desert lands that usually make up airplane graveyards, but some will be purchased or scrapped for parts to be recycled, sometimes resulting in creative and radical transformations, like the ones featured in this list.
There won't be any turbulence during nap time on this Georgian Airways Yakovlev Yak-42 aircraft. The old -- but fully functional -- plane has been transformed into a kindergarten, complete with school supplies, games and toys for children. Local teacher Gari Chapidze bought and refurbished the airplane, hoping to inspire enthusiasm in children, according to Agence France-Presse.
"The idea was to create a kindergarten where children go with joy," Chapidze, the rector of the Institute of Georgian-Ukrainian Social Relations that runs the kindergarten, told AFP. "Sometimes kids have difficulties in adapting to kindergarten, to a new environment. We decided to help them by making it fun,visitors enjoying the spillway each year."
While the plane cabin has been redecorated, Chapidze decided to leave the cockpit instruments intact so that the kindergarten's 15 children can play with them to imitate real-life pilots taking off, according to AFP.

Done deal if you believe this. SPORTSbyBROOKS Sources: 96-Team March Madness Is "Done Deal"
If true, that's complete BS. Don't **** with a perfect system. If you want to **** with something, try football.
Ugh, **** that ****. So stupid.
What about the associated story: "31 Mediocre Coaches Embrace The Change"
I cheer for two teams, Iowa State and whoever is playing the hawkeyes.
Originally Posted by cyclonenum1 What about the associated story: "31 Mediocre Coaches Embrace The Change" LOL...just like the bowl system it's gonna be oversaturated.
You already have teams that don't belong in the tournament with the 64 team field and now you are adding more average teams? Doesn't make much sense
While on live TV, Ford used a vulgar term to describe a private part of the female anatomy, adding that he was happily married and got more than enough to eat at home.
It use to be an incredible honor to be asked to play in the NCAA tournament. Now if you are mediocre, you will be in the tournament. Why fix what isn't broken? Who plays in the NIT now?
I told you, I dont care if youre black or white. I dont care if youre rich or poor. I dont care where you come from, whether its Texas, Florida, California, or right here in the state of Iowa, I dont care about any of that But what I did care about is moving forward from that day on, that we were one team." -Paul Rhoads
well first these rumors and now this?!?!?! NCAA Expands March Madness To Include 4,096 Teams | The Onion - America's Finest News Source
We still wouldn't make it into the tournament. Sorry, had to be said. Please continue.
Yet again, greed rules all.
Imagine the number of coaches who actually win more than one championship under that bracket. You would be considered a legend if you could accomplish that.
The NCAA confirmed that bidders would be interested in 96 teams, so theyre going with it. All you need to know right there. The NCAA, exploiting student athletes since 1905.
The ncaa tournament is still one of the most selective postseasons out there even with the change. NCAA Tourney (asis) 64/347 18.4% NCAA Tourney (new) 96/347 27.6% NCAA Football (I-A) 68/120 56.6% NFL Playoffs 12/32 37.5% MLB playoffs 8/30 26.6 NBA playoffs 16/30 53.3 Making the bottom end of the NCAA tourney will be equivalent to making the NIT today. The real question is, if you're in that 66-96 range, would you rather be in the tourney and be done early, or be in the NIT and have a shot at playing many more games?
I'm not a fan of half the teams getting a bye...So IMO, 64 or 128. Which 128 is probably way too many.

Two employees of a northwest suburban company that sells indoor gardening supplies may have been growing more than flowers and now they face drug charges.
McHenry County authorities, acting on a tip that employees were selling cannabis at Big Grow Hydroponics in Lake in the Hills, executed a search warrant and arrested 22-year-old John E. Czaplicki and 40-year-old Michael J. Singley, according to the McHenry County Sheriff's office.
Big Grow, at 9225 Trinity, sells indoor gardening supplies, soil and fertilizers, according to the company website.
But deputies seized about 1,200 grams of cannabis, a digital scale, packing materials, drug paraphernalia, $1,615 in cash and a Scion Tc vehicle, a release from the sheriff's office said. The drugs had a street value of about $11,000.
Czaplicki, 22, of Gurnee, was charged with unlawful possession of cannabis and unlawful delivery of cannabis, sheriff's police said. He was ordered held on $50,000 bond and will be back in court Nov. 29.
Singley, 40, of Rockton, unlawful possession of cannabis with intent to deliver, unlawful possession of cannabis, unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia, sheriff's police said. He was ordered held on $20,000 bond and will be back in court Nov. 28.

It's a cold misty morning in the part of London known as "The City". I find myself entering the famed Church of Saint Bartholomew the Great. While you may never have heard of it before, the church has a resume of films enviable by most filmmakers. It has been featured in such films as Four Weddings and a Funeral, Shakespeare in Love, and Elizabeth: The Golden Age. The prestigious church is the perfect location for the opening scene of the much-anticipated Sherlock Holmes.
As I walk into the cold church I feet like I am witness to something unspeakable, a very pale woman, seemingly possessed by demons, convulses while an imposing man stands above her. It is dark and chilling. Instantly I am excited, enchanted and a bit scared. It takes me a bit to realize that I am on a film set and not actually experiencing demonic activity. Afterwards I spot the film's director, Guy Ritchie looking like a dapper Englishman. Dressed in a tailored light suit as if he is a member of the cast, Ritchie oversees the choreography of the upcoming fight scene. He seems very meticulous and focused.
As they begin to shoot the actual scene with Robert Downey Jr. as the titular Sherlock Holmes and Jude law as Dr. Watson I am cautioned by the crew of the upcoming gunfire. Mesmerized, I stand on the right side of the church watching them film this pivotal scene. Forgetting to cover my ears, the loud gunshot brings me back to reality. As Ritchie yells cut, Downey, who seems charming and playful, contemplates different nuances to make the scene better. I place my fingers in my ear as they begin to shoot another take. I don't plan on making the same mistake twice.
Before leaving the set, Joel Silver enthusiastically invites me to take a look at one of the actual scenes from the film. He appears excited and proud. While true to its character and time period, the film feels completely new and modern; a Sherlock Holmes for a new generation.
Continue on in for interviews with Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, and Joel Silver.

Hypertension in Families of African Origin

To investigate familial patterns of hypertension and related cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in the United States and Nigeria.

Study Type: | Observational |
Study Design: | Observational Model: Natural History |
Study Start Date: | August 1995 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | July 2001 |
It has been known for many years that African Americans experience twofold higher rates of hypertension than do whites. The underlying biological mechanisms which lead to this differential are still not understood, however. Despite widespread speculation that persons of African descent are genetically susceptible to hypertension, few direct studies have been carried out. Rates of hypertension remain low in West Africa, and this study will provide a contrast between populations of similar genetic background in a low versus high risk environmental setting
A total of 240 families were identified from completed community surveys in Maywood, Illinois and Ibadan, Nigeria. Probands were ages 45-55 and equally divided between males and females. A minimum of five first-degree relatives were examined in each family to obtain information on the following variables: blood pressure (BP), obesity, urinary sodium and potassium, socioeconomic status and physical activity. In addition, plasma and DNA were collected and stored for future studies of relevant physiologic intermediate phenotypes and candidate genes for hypertension in the two contrasting populations. These data provided the basis for examining familial aggregation of blood pressure/hypertension and related CV risk factors. Three primary goals were addressed: 1) to determine whether the familial aggregation of blood pressure in Black populations was influenced by the overall distribution of environmental factors at the population level, by contrasting the distribution of familial correlations of blood pressure and the familial aggregation of hypertension, in Nigeria and the United States; to determine the significance of measured environmental correlates of blood pressure by comparing the magnitude of variance components for probands and relatives in each setting; and 3) to use path analysis to obtain estimates of genetic and cultural heritability of blood pressure, controlling for clustering environmental factors at the household level. Plasma and DNA samples collected in this study provided additional valuable resources for future molecular research.

You gotta love seeing pictures of Matt Bomer when he isn't on the set of "White Collar." Trust me, it's not that I don't LOVE seeing this man in a suit because I'd be completely mad if I didn't. But its so nice to see him in something a bit more casual.
These new images show Matt at DIRECTV's Fifth Annual Celebrity Beach Bowl held at Victory Park on Saturday, February 5th, 2011 in Dallas, Texas. He is one of the many celebrities participating in the no-holds-barred flag football game being coached this year by Glee's Matthew Morrison and New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez.
Also participating in the game were Josh Duhamel, Chace Crawford, Kellan Lutz, Joe Manganiello, Chord Overstreet, Kevin Dillon, Jerry Ferrara, Hayden Panettiere, Hunter Parrish, Michael B. Jordan, Dominic Fumusa, Brie Larson, and Marisa Miller.

It has long been known that type 2 diabetes is linked to obesity, particularly fat inside the belly. Now, researchers at the Joslin Diabetes Center have found that fat from other areas of the body can actually reduce insulin resistance and improve insulin sensitivity.
In a study published in the May issue of Cell Metabolism, a team lead by C. Ronald Kahn, M.D., found that subcutaneous fat—fat below the skin (usually in the hips and thighs)—is associated with reduced insulin levels and improved insulin sensitivity.
Kahn says that fat in the belly increases the risk of diabetes and mortality and it has been suggested that obesity in subcutaneous areas, often the hips and thighs, might decrease such risks.
His study concludes that fat under the skin is intrinsically different from visceral fat (belly fat or fat packed in between organs) and may produce substances that can improve glucose metabolism.
"The surprising thing was that it wasn't where the fat was located," Kahn said. "It was the kind of fat that was the most important variable. Even more surprising, it wasn't that belly fat was exerting negative effects, but that fat under the skin was producing a good effect. Animals with more of this kind of fat didn't gain as much weight as they aged, had better insulin sensitivity, lower insulin levels, and were improved all around."
In addition, Kahn noted that a class of diabetes drugs called thiazoladinediones (ACTOS, Avandia) may cause patients to gain weight in the subcutaneous area, yet also improve insulin sensitivity.
Kahn said it is possible that fat underneath the skin may be producing certain hormones, known as adipokines, that produce beneficial effects on metabolism. These effects may offset the negative effects produced by belly fat.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — It's a billion-dollar intellectual property question that has yet to be answered: Will a $1.05 billion damage award against Samsung Electronics Inc. remain intact?
After losing a major copyright case to Apple Inc. over smartphone technology, Samsung asked U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh to reduce the award by as much as $600 million. But Koh was mostly silent on the request in a series of orders issued late Tuesday.
The only mention came in a footnote to her order denying Samsung's request for a new trial. The company's argument for the decrease will be addressed in a separate order to be issued later, she said.
The four orders issued throughout the night dealt with Apple's claims that Samsung infringed some of its technology. Koh largely upheld the jury's finding in favor of Apple — with one distinct exception.
She disagreed with the jury's conclusion that Samsung's patent infringements were willful, a finding that stalled Apple's bid for a tripling of the damages.
She otherwise ruled that the jury got the verdict right and denied both companies' demands for a new trial.
Some legal experts and analysts predicted Koh might trim a few million dollars here or $10 million there while leaving the bulk of the award undisturbed.
"It seems pretty clear that Judge Koh largely supported the jury verdict and isn't planning to second-guess the validity and infringement issues," Stanford University law professor Mark Lemley said. "It also seems clear she thinks $1.05 billion is plenty of money."
He said the damage award could get trimmed a bit in the final order but added that he would be surprised if Koh ordered a new trial or cut the figure dramatically.
Others, however, said Koh's order overturning the jury decision of "willful" infringement suggested she could be ready to depart significantly from its damage award.

Dating back to 1894, Lakemont Park has become the 8th oldest amusement park in the United States. Originally founded as a trolley park, Lakemont now offers both an amusement park and water park for one admission. One of park's signature attractions is the world's oldest roller coaster, Leap-The-Dips. This last of its kind roller coaster was named a National Historic Landmark in 1996. Today, Lakemont Park thrills guests with 30 rides and attractions, including the Island Waterpark, two wooden roller coasters, go-karts, and miniature golf. Lakemont Park & Island Waterpark is located in Altoona off Interstate 99 at the Frankstown Road exit.

Air Jordan 10 "Steel"
September 13th, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 30 comments
The Air Jordan 10 "Steel" will release on October 12th, 2013. The sneaker is one of the more confusing pairs on the horizon from Jordan Brand, as this particular silhouette hasn't been seen anywhere else in 2013 save for some GS pairs. Are you glad to see this rather muted pair of Jordans coming back around? Continue reading for the latest preview of the upcoming pair, one that gets a red Jumpman on bottom this time, and make sure you've got their date of arrival marked on your calender if you're planning to grab them.
Air Jordan X "Steel"
Color: White/Black-Light Steel Grey-Varsity Red
Style Code: 310805-103
Release Date: 10/12/13
Price: $170

Wish they released these in OG form... The extra leather over the toe box makes this shoe, to me.
Gonna cop these, nice clean and looking sharp. For sure a must, don't like anything above the 8s, but these have grown on me so gotta get them. Speeking of which what is going on with aqua 8s? Are those happening or not??????
such a dope 10 tbh i have never had a air jordan 10 these will be my first along with powder blues as my second.
Must haves in my book, but wish they would have did it with all tumbled leather and left off the patent leather, not say it doesn't look good on it; I luv my royal blue 10s. Just was hopefully for the original look to them.
yepp that tumbled leather is a winner. steeles are super, now bring on the city series or cherries or ice blues
These are going to be huge for me! I wanted them as a kid more than anything but my mom told me they look like beetle juice shoes and wouldn't buy them for me. I've wanted them since then and now I'm a grown man and don't give a shit what mom has to say lol. These will be mine!
@LxrdLeon same here. just need some 2's and 14's after these. then anything above 14 still lol
There is no patent leather its an all white smooth leather on the side. Everything is right about this shoe. Only difference is yhe OG's had that funny looking toecap on it.
Mom always makes me pick out my Christmas gift from her. Maybe I should make her buy these! That would be the ultimate win.... Lol

Common sunflower is a widely branching, stout annual, 1 1/2-8 ft. tall, with coarsely hairy leaves and stems. The terminal flowers heads are large and showy, up to 5 in. across. A tall, coarse leafy plant with a hairy stem commonly branched in the upper half and bearing several or many flower heads, the central maroon disk surrounded by many bright yellow rays. Yellow ray flowers surround brown disk flowers.
The state flower of Kansas. The heads follow the sun each day, facing eastward in the morning, westward at sunset; the name in Spanish means turns toward the sun. The plant has been cultivated in Central North America since pre-Columbian times; yellow dye obtained from the flowers, and a black or dull blue dye from the seeds, were once important in Native American basketry and weaving. Native Americans also ground the seeds for flour and used its oil for cooking and dressing hair. In the 19th century it was believed that plants growing near a home would protect from malaria. In the United States and Eurasia seeds from cultivated strains are now used for cooking oil and livestock feed. Many variants have been developed, some with one huge head topping a stalk 9-16 ft (3-5 m) tall, others with maroon rays. Prairie Sunflower (H. petiolaris), found throughout the Great Plains and similar to the wild forms of Common Sunflower, has scales on the disk in the center of the head tipped by white hairs, easily visible when the central flowers are spread apart. Developed in a single large head variety by Russians.

Cellphone cramming charges filed
The FTC files its first mobile phone cramming case, alerting consumers that this problem continues.
Federal consumer protection officials have filed charges against a company they say collected millions of dollars from consumers through unauthorized charges added to their cellphone bills.
Adding unauthorized charges to cellphone bills is known as cramming -- a longstanding problem that continues, authorities said. The lawsuit filed by the Federal Trade Commission against Wise Media LLC and its owners is the first such case by the agency.
In its case, the FTC asked a U.S. District Court judge in Atlanta to freeze the company's assets, to order the operation to stop "deceptive and unfair practices" and to give back money collected via cramming so consumers can get restitution.
The company is accused by the FTC of seemingly randomly adding charges of $9.99 a month to consumers' cellphone bills for "premium" texting services for such things as horoscopes and dating tips. The consumers didn't sign up for these services, the government said.
"The concept of 'cramming' charges on to phone bills is a not a new one," said FTC Chairwoman Edith Ramirez. "As more and more consumers move to mobile phones, scammers have adapted to this new technology, and the Commission will continue its efforts to protect consumers from their unlawful practices."
Cramming has been a problem that many consumers might not be aware of. One of the biggest problems is that a lot of consumers fail to scrutinize their cellphone bills and don't expect there to be charges from anyone other than their carrier. Plus, the FTC said, the charges from companies like Wise Media often appear with abbreviations, further confusing what they were.
"As a result, many consumers didn't notice or understand the charges and paid the bills," the FTC said.
In addition, consumers who did detect the charges and called Wise Media to request a refund were told one would be on the way. But those promises were often hollow, the FTC said.
Here are some tips from the FTC to help combat cramming:
- Wireless carriers allow third-party charges that can appear on their bills. So, it is important to read your bill line by line to be sure there isn't a charge you don't understand. If you spot something of concern, contact your carrier.
- Most carriers will allow you to block third-party charges. Ask yours about how that would work.
- Crammers often get cellphone numbers by finding them online. Be careful where you post yours.
- The FTC has more information about cramming here, and suggests consumers who have been crammed file a complaint with the agency.

When the police can't help you and the press will destroy you, when you need maximum force and maximum discretion, there's only one place to go—Private, the detective agency that will get the job done, even if they have to break a few rules to do it.
Private Agency Profiles
Seymour Kloppenberg, aka "Dr. Sci": Chief Criminologist
Seymour, also known as "Dr. Sci," is Private's chief criminologist. He loves technology and always has the most advanced new gadgets in his state-of-the-art lab. When not running analyses in his lab, he likes to video chat with his girlfriend, Kit-Kat. He also loves horror movies.
Timeline of Cases Solved
Private Jack Morgan investigates the disappearance of the biggest superstar couple in Hollywood.
When his former lover is found murdered in Jack Morgan's bed, he is instantly the number one suspect. While Jack is under police investigation, the mob strong-arms him into recovering $30 million in stolen pharmaceuticals for them. And the beautiful manager of a luxury hotel chain persuades him to quietly investigate a string of murders at her properties.
Former CIA agent Jack Morgan runs Private, a renowned investigation company with branches around the globe. It is where you go when you need maximum force and maximum discretion. The secrets of the most influential men and women on the planet come to Jack daily—and his staff of investigators use the world's most advanced forensic tools to make and break their cases.
Other Private Offices
At Private Berlin, agent Chris Schneider has disappeared. Chris had taken a secretive personal leave and hadn't spoken to anyone from the office in days. The Private team retraces his footsteps to the cases he was investigating before his disappearance: a billionaire suspected of cheating on his wife, a world-famous soccer player accused of throwing games, and the owner of a seedy nightclub. They were the last people to see Chris—and they're all suspects. And someone is lying.
For Hannah Shapiro, a beautiful young American student, this particular nightmare began eight years ago in Los Angeles, when Jack Morgan, owner of Private—the world's most exclusive detective agency—saved her from a horrific death. She has fled her country, but can't flee her past. The terror has followed her to London, and now it is down to former Royal Military Police Sergeant Dan Carter, head of Private London, to save her all over again.
Private, the world's most renowned investigation firm, has been commissioned to provide security for the 2012 Olympic games in London. Its agents are the smartest, fastest, and most technologically advanced in the world, and 400 of them have been transferred to London to protect over 10,000 competitors who represent more than 200 countries.

As long as you're dragging that smart phone everywhere you go, you may as well put it to work. We've rounded up nine must-have apps for meeting professionals (and a few more just for fun). All are built for the iPhone, but BlackBerry users take heart: some comparable applications are out there.
The great thing about an app is the low cost. The most expensive on our list is $9.99 and several are free. If you bought the most expensive app in each category below, the most you'd be out is about $41—a small investment in productivity.
Check out our list, but more important, tell us what app you can't live without as a meeting professional.
1. Track Your Boxes
While shippers including the U.S. Postal Service all have free apps that let you track the status of your conference T-shirt and other meeting essentials, apps such as Package Tracker ($.99) and Delivery Status ($2.99) support tracking from multiple services, including UPS, FedEx, DHL, and the USPS.
2. Track Your Flight
While a number of apps compete in the flight-tracking space, Flight Track ($4.99) allows users to track flights worldwide; check gate numbers, delays, and cancellations; and view live flight maps with weather radar, among other features. The pro version ($9.99) automatically sends users delay information and other updates on the flights they're following. (BlackBerry users: try FlightView)
3. Better Photos of Big Spaces
When you need a photo of the ballroom or reception space you're checking out but the view is wider than what your iPhone camera will capture, Auto Stitch ($2.99) can merge up to 20 overlapping pictures to create the effect of a wide-angle camera.
4. Dictate, Don't Type
If your thumb-typing skills aren't up to par, Dragon Dictation (free) is a voice-recognition app that creates voice-to-text transcriptions that can be sent via e-mail or text message, or pasted into any iPhone app. In the words of The New York Times technology columnist, David Pogue, "I'm finding Dragon to be a much faster, more efficient way to spit out e-mail messages, notes, text messages and Twitter updates. It's really, really cool." (BlackBerry users: try MyCaption)
5. Web Conferencing
Don't miss a Web meeting just because you're on the road. The Cisco WebEx Meeting Center app (free) allows users to see the shared-screen content on their phones in addition to listening to the audio. Users can also see a list of participants and initiate text chats with them. Another popular app in the Web conferencing space is Fuze Meeting (free). (BlackBerry users: try Fuze Meeting)
6. Track Your Expenses
Whether traveling on a site inspection or to a meeting, receipts pile up. XpenseTracker ($4.99) makes it easier to track expenses as well as mileage. The expenses can be sorted by date, category, payment type, or client, and exported via Wi-Fi. Using the iPhone camera, users can take pictures of receipts and tag them with location information before exporting.
7. Find a Business
What do you need on the road? A gas station? Movie theater? ATM? Restaurant? The AroundMe app (free) identifies your position on a map, shows you the nearby businesses in any of those categories (and more), and tells you how far away each one is. Super cool: For iPhone 3GS users, the new augmented-reality mode in version 3.5.1 opens your camera and superimposes labels of local businesses on the live image you see on the screen.
8. Get Some Work Done
Let's be realistic, nobody wants to deal with an Excel spreadsheet on a little phone screen, but if you're stuck, it's undoubtedly better than nothing. Quickoffice Mobile Office Suite ($7.99) and Documents to Go ($9.99) are among the apps that allow users to create and edit MicrosoftWord and Excel documents, as well as view other popular file formats, including pdf and PowerPoint. Both were among Apple's best-selling apps for 2009.
9. Get Organized
There are many, many apps to help iPhone users stay organized. My Lists ($1.99) is a good choice among the lightweight solutions for creating and organizing to-do lists. A more robust choice, Todo ($9.99), earns kudos for its ability to sync with iCal and Outlook, manage multiple tasks, and allow phone numbers and URLs within notes to be clickable.
Just for Fun
MeetDifferent (free): A must-have if you're attending Meeting Professionals International's MeetDifferent conference in February.
MultiBS Bingo (free): When the folks on the podium are speaking in clichés and buzz words, don't get aggravated, play bingo.
Shazam ($4.99): When you want to know what song is playing on the radio, click this app to find out.
Doodle Jump ($.99): A cute, fun, and addictive game that you'll like as much as your nine-year-old does.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Federal authorities say a Kenmore man robbed a bank in Kenmore.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, 57-year-old Robert Stevenson walked into a First Niagara Bank on Delaware Avenue back on June 11th and handed a bank teller a note demanding 100 and 50 dollar bills.
The teller said Stevenson tapped his waistband, inferring he had a weapon. Stevenson then allegedly made off with more than $3,500 in cash.
He has since been arrested and charged with bank robbery.

TK421 - Except that rarely do political attack ads tell the real truth. They use a badly twisted, hyperbolic, vicious mangling of the truth, that only carries just enough reality so that the senders can't be sued.
Never mind the fact that we should be paying more attention to what people actually stand for and what they think on important issues.

Source Naturals Hoodia Concentrate -- 250 mg - 120 Capsules
Very helpful!
Definitely, noticeably helps allay hunger. Also seems to re-balance blood sugar when spiking due to overindulgence.
February 21, 2013
No difference seen
Perhaps I am writing this review prematurely, as I've only taken it a few times, but each time I took it I never felt any difference in my hunger and still ate the same. Plus it is difficult for me to time when to take it an hour before my meal as I usually only eat when I'm hungry on no real set schedule. May work for some, but not me.

Made it easier to eat less
I was not sure what to expect when trying this product- I had never taken an appetite suppressant before. I was pleasantly surprised. I did not feel jittery at all and my hunger was diminished. I was not all of a sudden no longer hungry, but the Hoodia made it easier to eat less. Made me noticeably more thirsty as well, which also may have helped with the hunger. It is interesting to read about how this plant was originally used.

The psychology of healthcare reform
The House has passed the first comprehensive reform package of the health insurance industry in decades, which is now up for debate in the Senate. This is a highly complex issue, but there are some quite basic reasons why it's so difficult to accomplish significant reform, and in part these have to do with psychological responses to change and uncertainty.
A few years ago I was fortunate to work with a couple of organizational consultants, and they introduced me to the concept of NICs and PUFs. These funny sounding acronyms give insight into why health care reform is … Read more

The annual Cherry Days 5K run is scheduled for Saturday, July 7. This year's race is also a fundraiser for the Paonia High School class of 2014 — the upcoming junior class.
Class co-president Jason Sturgis and William Austin are organizing the race, and class members will be volunteering for and competing in the race.
Pete Heck has organized the race for the past three years. Due to conflicts in his schedule, Heck says he was considering either postponing or cancelling this year's race, but when contacted by the junior class to take on the challenge, he was more than happy to hand it over to them. Heck will still be involved and will be helping with times and course management.
Sturgis said that proceeds from the race will mostly go toward next spring's junior-senior prom, which is put on each year by the junior class.
Any extra funds will go toward the class senior trip in 2014.
The course remains unchanged from the 2011 race. It begins at Apple Valley Park and winds through the east end of Paonia to Minnesota Creek Road and back. Heck describes the course as "pretty flat and fast." Medals will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers.
Last year, 86 runners competed in the race. Sturgis said he'd like to see that number topped this year.
Registration begins at 7 a.m. at Apple Valley Park. Registration fee is $20 and will include a Cherry Days cinch sack. Start time is at 8:30 a.m.
As always, the Cherry Days race will include a 1-mile fun run for children ages 10 and under, which will begin at about 9 a.m.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The Elon University men's basketball team has added another George Washington High School point guard to its arsenal.
Patriots senior Luke Eddy gave a verbal commitment on Thursday to play his college basketball for the Phoenix.
The 2011-12 Kanawha Valley Player of the Year will play at the same school that featured former GW All-State guard Chris Long.
"That's the school I visited the most and Chris Long went there," Eddy said. "That was a big influence on me.
"Elon runs a lot of pick and rolls. It also gave Chris a chance to play overseas. Elon kind of took him to that level."
Long played four years at Elon (2007-11), where he scored 1,237 career points and added 528 assists. Long is playing professionally in Europe for Siarka Jezioro (Poland).
Eddy received offers from several Division II schools and from Division I Stetson University in DeLand, Fla.
However, he also was sold on what Elon had to offer outside of basketball.
"It was voted the seventh prettiest campus in America and voted the best-run college in America (by the Princeton Review)," Eddy said. "They showed a lot of interest in me. The early signing period is coming up and I felt comfortable enough with the coaches and players they already have.

Kaempfer's Moshcowitz Model waist lining and Metalic Whalebone Stays", "Moshcowitz Model waist lining on exhibition free", "Lewando's French Dying and Cleansing Estab." This Metallic Whalebone Stay is an entirely new article designed as a substitute for whalebone It is firm at the girdle and becomes gradually more flexible and elastic toward the ends thus preventing any bulging appearance and securing exact adjustment to the figure Its ends are provided with an eyelet through which they are sewn in and to the casing and effectively hindered from forcing themselves through the garment In other respects its construction is unique combining all the essential qualities conducive to comfort ease and that graceful pliability of figure necessary to perfection in dress fitting Heretofore these results were vainly sought by using various materials such as cane horn but chiefly whalebone which had to pass through the laborious processes of measuring cutting scraping and tapering off at the ends before being inserted into the casing to which the ends had to be sewn. This operation frequently split the whalebone broke the needle and occasionally pierced the fingers of the sewer In addition to these tedious and expensive modes in the cutting and fitting of whalebone experience has proved that as a material it is poorly adapted to the purposes of a perfect stay Under different temperatures it loses its flexibility and continuing bent its sharp ends will pierce the garment This new Metallic Stay has triumphantly conquered all these difficulties with their attendant discomforts and inconveniences which hitherto had to be tolerated for want of a successful substitute Dress makers will immediately recognize its many advantages over all other stays not only from an economical and practical standpoint but also because they will find it in the saving of labor a boon which they have long desired and which will greatly assist them in securing to their customers case elegance and comfort in dress fitting They are produced in lengths from 6 to 14 inches corresponding with the length of scams in any garment. SECURED BY SPECIAL PATENTS Manufactured by M KAEMPFER Office and Salesroom No 82 Fifth Avenue Corner of 14th Street New York City NY." "Printed Directions for cutting basting fitting and making will be found on the face of every Moschcowitz Model Pattern this being one of the exclusive advantages of all the patterns patented by us It is therefore almost impossible with ordinary care to make any serious mistake. It is now superseding all those false methods of cutting by the use of one size tissue paper patterns which have failed to meet the requirements of even a satisfactory much less of a perfect fit. On each part will be found a dash line for cutting and a dotted line for sewing Particular attention is invited to these lines because this is the only lining upon which lines marking the exact direction where the operation of sewing is to be conducted can be printed. The linings which are cut to the one size have no printed indications whatever directing the purchaser how and where the several parts are to be sewn together and therefore in the absence of these printed lines a practiced dress maker is required to mark accurately the line for sewing especially on the darts and where it is necessary to sew in a sloping or an oblique direction upon the precision of which a perfect fit chiefly depends. All necessary requirements of this character are found plainly printed upon the Model Waist Lining the dash line for cutting and within this the still more important dotted line drawn mathematically the required distance from and along the cutting line with corresponding printed figures where the parts should meet and by the help of which the most inexperienced needle woman can correctly join and sew together the connecting parts fitting to a nicety the angles slopes and dart points of every portion of the waist This is an invaluable peculiarity and feature which is not found on any other dress lining in the world and which belongs exclusively to The Moschcowitz Model Waist Lining." Moschcowitz Brothers, printed by M KAEMPFER."
