The conch shell – its significance
In India the conch shell represents the five great elements – earth, water, fire, air and space and is known as the panchajanya. The conch is understood as the source of all existence, a cosmic womb. In Indian mythology, when the God Vishnu blew through the conch, the primordial sound Aum emanated taking the form of the Vedas. Today in India the conch shell is blown at the beginning of sacred rituals as its vibrations are said to dispel negative energy and purify the environment. Vishnu's conch is also the symbol of Dharma, the cosmic law behind all creation.

Hi: 14° Lo:1° 7 day
THE BISHOP of Worcester has admitted many people will have been left 'hurt and disappointed' by the decision of the Church of England to reject moves to introduce the first women bishops.
But Dr John Inge said he remained confident it would not be too long before the first women were ordained bishop, despite Tuesday's (November 20) controversial decision by the Church's General Synod.
The legislation needed to secure a two thirds majority in each of the Synod's three houses which it achieved overwhelmingly in the House of Bishops, where 44 of the 49 bishops backed it, and the House of Clergy where 148 voted in favour and just 45 against.
But, its failure to win the support of the House of Laity by just six votes ensures the wait will continue for the first women bishops.
Bishop John - who had been a strong supporter of the legislation - said: "Very many people indeed will be disappointed and hurt by this decision, not least the huge numbers of women whose ministry as priests has enriched the Church of England immeasurably over the past 20 years.
"I want all of them to know, especially those in the Diocese of Worcester, that their ministry is greatly valued by me and many others both inside and outside of the Church and that they are in my thoughts and prayers."
Bishop John said the final decision was particularly disappointing given that the overwhelming majority of the Dioceses of the Church - 42 out of 44 - had signalled their support for it
"I remain confident that, though it will not happen as soon as many of us had hoped, women will be ordained bishop in the Church of England before too long," he added.

Summary (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
At Play in the Fields of the Lord, set in the jungles of South America, has received much critical recognition. An aboriginal tribe of Amazonian Indians—the Niaruna—lives so far up the headwaters of the Amazon that they have never seen "modern" men, except the anthropologist who has been there to observe them. Once discovered, however, they become the focus of a number of groups' attempts to bring civilization to them. The Niaruna will never be the same after foreigners come on the scene, but neither will the Americans who go there. This novel expresses Matthiessen's central concern with the negative impact that modern technology has, not only on the less "advanced" cultures on which it encroaches but also on the people who take their own advantages for granted. The book also describes the tension that arises when the innocent "savages" are confronted by an essentially corrupt civilization—in this case, Catholic and Baptist missionaries and two American mercenaries.
The Niaruna are causing problems for the governor of their state; although they usually live peacefully in their remote villages, they occasionally cause trouble for the civilized South American Indians who are their neighbors. The prefect of Oriente State wants them "pacified" by whatever means is effective. Although he personally favors bombing the Niaruna and driving them across his country's borders, he cannot afford a scandal. Because he holds two American soldiers of fortune as detainees (Wolfie and Moon), he coerces them into taking the job.
Not only does At Play in the Fields of the Lord show readers what can happen to the Indians once...

Summary (Masterplots II: American Fiction Series, Revised Edition)
At Play in the Fields of the Lord has the plot elements of stereotypical nineteenth century colonial novels and twentieth century Hollywood adventure films. The discovery of a savage Indian tribe, living in a remote and dangerous jungle, brings a handful of whites to a decrepit town on the edge of terra incognita. An ambitious and ruthless military commander competes with ne'er-do-well mercenaries and intrepid missionaries to establish first contact with the savages. All must battle the elements—oppressive heat and an unhealthy jungle—as well as resist the temptations of drink, which relieves boredom, and of forbidden passion, which eases loneliness.
The novel is not, however, a typical adventure tale. Matthiessen employs these romantic elements only to invert them. The Indians of this novel, the Niaruna, may be primitive by modern standards, but they are not savage, especially in comparison with the whites who would bring them "civilization." The outcome of the adventure will not be typical: These whites will discover, not some lost treasure, forgotten city, or secret of life, but the dark reality of their own hearts. One fortunate intruder will discover a small light amid the darkness.
Matthiessen constructs the tale around two contrasting protagonists, Martin Quarrier and Lewis Moon. Quarrier is a missionary, Moon a mercenary soldier. Quarrier is a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant, Moon a Cheyenne Indian. Quarrier comes to Oriente to propagate the Gospel, Moon to bomb the inhabitants into submission. Though they start the novel with opposite intentions, the plot leads them to one moment of common purpose and understanding before they discover their destinies.
The first half of the novel prepares the protagonists to meet the Niaruna. When Quarrier arrives at the capital city of Madre de Dios, he is anxious to begin his missionary work. He seems well...

WXXI Selected to Lead Major Journalism Initiative in Upstate NY
WXXI Selected to Lead Major Journalism Initiative in Upstate NY
Thu, 03/25/2010 - 10:00am - 12:00pm
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting made the announcement this morning at a special meeting in Washington, DC.
WXXI Public Broadcasting today was selected to lead a major journalism initiative in the Upstate New York region. The initiative, funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), will support the operation of a Local Journalism Center, which will provide in-depth news reports on innovative technology and its role in rebuilding Upstate New York's economy.
WXXI, along with WNED (Buffalo), WRVO (Oswego/Syracuse), WSKG (Binghamton) and WMHT (Albany) will partner to create Upstate New York's Local Journalism Center. Together they will hire a total of five additional reporters, one at each station. In addition, the grant will fund an editor and a managing facilitator at WXXI to coordinate feature reports and news spots, as well as an interactive web portal.
"We are extremely pleased that WXXI and our neighboring public broadcasting stations were selected to participate in this CPB initiative," said WXXI President Norm Silverstein. "Our news center will allow us to pool resources with our partners to provide more extensive multi-media news to the communities we serve about innovative technology and efforts to rebuild the Upstate economy."
The Upstate Local Journalism Center will focus on "The Innovation Trail." The Center's extensive multi-media reporting will help the public gain a better understanding of the impact of investment in research and technology projects across the region, the ways that colleges, universities and medical centers are working to create opportunities in emerging technologies, and other industry efforts to transition from a manufacturing base to a knowledge economy. Working across the region, this initiative will allow reporters to move beyond traditional media to provide in-depth coverage with a high-degree of community engagement and involvement.
CPB announced four other Local Journalism Centers, each focused on a particular issue relevant to communities throughout their region. In the Southwest, a bi-lingual reporting team from seven stations will focus on cultural shifts that are transforming the southwest, including Latino, Native American and border issues.~ In The Plains, six stations across four states will focus on agribusiness, including farming practices, food production and fuel usage, looking both at local and national issues.~ In the upper Midwest, stations in three states will focus on reinventing the industrial heartland and in particular the economy in the upper Midwest.~ And in Central Florida, six stations will focus on creating multi-media content related to healthcare issues in their region.~
"The Local Journalism Centers will enhance public media's ability to meet the information needs of local communities at a time when access to high quality, original reporting is declining," Patricia Harrison, the CEO and President of CPB said. "The need for that coverage is even greater today, and we have a responsibility to ensure that journalism can continue to thrive and serve the needs of our democracy. These radio and television stations are locally owned and operated and work in partnership with other community based organizations," Ms. Harrison explained. "Working together with stations across a region, along with emerging new digital journalism organizations, they can make a significant contribution to news gathering and distribution, which is critical to the information health of these communities."

NORTH GREENBUSH, N.Y. – North Greenbush Police Chief Rocco Fragomeni has announced he is retiring after 32 years of service. He's been chief of police for the last 15 years.
Fragomeni says he's happy with the staff he's leaving behind and happy to be retiring when times are good.
Fragomeni said, "You see so many people leave their jobs, I've seen it over the 32 years, when there's controversy because either they've done something or someone in the department has done something and there's just a shadow cast over their retirement. And I couldn't think of a more perfect time, things are running very well here. I've got a great staff I've had a great 32 years and it's time to move on." Fragomeni isn't fading away from police life completely. On Monday, he starts as director of the police academy in Schenectady.

Trayvon Martin community discussion planned at D.C. Armory
WASHINGTON (AP) - A community discussion on the perception of black men inspired by the shooting death of Trayvon Martin is planned at the D.C. Armory.
WTOP reports that the discussion will start at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday. It's hosted by the Commission on Black Men and Boys created by congressional Delegate Eleanor Holmes-Norton.
Among the four panelists will be Charlie Rawlings, whose 14-year-old son was killed in 2007 in a shooting involving two off-duty D.C. police officers.
They were never charged and the family received a settlement from the city. Seventeen-year-old Trayvon Martin was killed Feb. 26 by a neighborhood watch volunteer in Florida.
The case has prompted a nationwide discussion on racial relations.

REVIEW THIS ITEMYou could spend countless hours swiping blades over a tri-hone stone set, laboriously putting an edge back on your favorite cutting tools. Or you could just give your blades a few effortless swipes with this sharpener and get on with your day. The ceramic roller sharpens at a precise 30º so there's no guesswork. And the safety guard means your fingers are never in harm's way.

This sharpener is great. I use it to put a workable edge back onto my Gerber 23 inch cutting axe. This Gerber axe is the same thing as the Fiskers version and does a great job at putting the edge on. Easy in-field sharpener. Only issue is that the edge has a tendency to cut at the plastic as you pull it through. May want to fix that.

Mini 102 and Mini 210, HP's new consumer Netbooks
We've always been more partial to the Netbooks put out by HP's business side, but budget-conscious buyers can get largely similar systems from HP's consumer side, with lower starting prices.
The line, anchored by the Mini 110 is getting a modest makeover, morphing into the Mini 210. New to this model are optional colors, including Black Crystal, Silver Crystal, Pacific Blue, and Sonoma Red. Most importantly, the awkward side-anchored mouse buttons have been moved to a more traditional spot below the touch pad, fixing one of the major annoyances of the Mini 110.
These 10.1-inch systems … Read more

Overall this is an epic game that deserves praise for changing the series more than the any other call of duty games apart from Call of duty 4.
Nov 13, 2012MP is very,nice choice of differnt weapons and score streaks,f the haters and the people that say its as bad as MOH:WF...because that game is the worst AAA title since Rage
Nov 13, 2012This call of duty has a way better multiplayer than i was expecting. The only thing that did disappoint me was zombies on nuketown. I reckon it was a good deal for $80
Nov 17, 2012I give it a zero for the fact that no major changes were made to the game besides the new killstreak system.There is almost no reason to buy this game other than saying you got the new COD. When in reality if you had MW3 in your collection you don't need this.

Nov 13, 2012Same engine, Same formula, a few new guns... I'm not sold.
How year after year people flock to the new edition of the call of duty franchise I'm not sure. The best Modern Warfare game was the original, since then the franchise has gone slowly downhill with each new installation. I would advise people to stay away from this one and wait for it to hit the sale. -

Nov 13, 2012This crying about COD got me buying COD games. Thanks. Bought BO2 and love it. Do me a favor, complain some more about the next game. I get to buy another great game and listen to you cry with envy.

Nov 14, 2012If you want a to se scores of serious reviewers, and not trolls like these that gives **** rating despite the fact that they haven't even played the game. Watch all the mixed/positive user reviews that is from the score
All the rating below are made by trolls that constantly says that they have played the game but not. -

Nov 14, 2012I believe that Call Of Duty Black ops 2 is the best Call Of Duty to date especially the mechanics. i especially like the new class system and who can forget the zombies. I think zombies is absolute flawless because they have really reinvented the mode and it has worked well

Nov 14, 2012
Nov 14, 2012Decent story and a good multiplayer!!! People just hate cause they don't like the COD franchise . You don't need to give a game 0 cause you are on the hate train!!!!!!!!
Nov 14, 2012
Jan 22, 2013This is not to say it's a bad game, it's just not different enough from previous Call of Duty titles. The story isn't memorable, the maps and weapons aren't any different to what we've previously experienced, the gameplay is near identical to previous games, and when it's not identical it falls flat and fails to impress.
Jan 19, 2013It's fun, and an indication that Treyarch is willing to explore ideas that Infinity Ward has thus far ignored. [Issue#93, p.74]
Jan 7, 2013If the original Black Ops was Treyarch's coming-out party, then Black Ops 2 is the studio's affirmation that their COD expertise was no flash in the pan. If you're one of the 16 people who hasn't played this gem yet, go buy it now. Conversely, if you're among those who bought the game but hasn't ventured into the single-player campaign (yes, it happens), there's a great narrative and divergent gameplay awaiting your experimentation, so check it out.

No. 21 Kentucky has had a week to think about its loss at North Carolina as it returns to action at home against Belmont on Saturday afternoon. With the loss to the Tar Heels in the rearview mirror, the Wildcats have to be careful not to look past the Bruins and onto a showdown with Louisville next week. It shouldn't be difficult for coach John Calipari to convince his players to take Belmont seriously - the Bruins already have done what the Wildcats could not by beating North Carolina earlier in the season.Still, with three losses already on the ledger for the preseason No. 1 team and a recruiting class some called the best of all time, some Kentucky fans are beginning to panic. That's not necessary, according to Jim O'Connell, the Associated Press's National College Basketball writer, who told the Lexington Herald-Leader, ""If you fail a pop quiz in the first week of school, they're going to give you a 'F' for the whole year?" That said, the clock is ticking as Big Blue Nation continues to wait for NBA talent like Julius Randle, James Young, Willie Cauley-Stein and the Harrison twins to jell. TV: Noon ET, ESPNUABOUT BELMONT (8-4): Belmont has had no trouble scoring this season (80.1 points per game), but the biggest hurdle the Bruins will face in Lexington is on the glass. No Belmont player averages more than five rebounds, and Rick Byrd's squad is ranked 308th nationally in rebounding at 32.3. With forces in the middle like the 6-9 Randle and the 7-foot Cauley-Stein for Kentucky, the Bruins could have even more trouble preventing second-chance points than usual.ABOUT KENTUCKY (8-3): It's no secret that Kentucky's biggest question coming into this season was whether its uber-talented roster could figure out how to play together, and so far the jury is still out. Randle has been extraordinary as expected (17.2 points, 11.4 rebounds), while Aaron and Andrew Harrison have averaged 14.4 and 10.9 points, respectively, but the offense still doesn't quite feel like it's running full throttle for Calipari yet. The Wildcats have broken 80 points just once in their last six games.TIP-INS1. Kentucky is 35-0 against the current members of the Ohio Valley Conference.2. Belmont has won six regular-season and six conference tournament titles since 2006, trailing only Kansas in that span.3. Randle is the first Kentucky player to score in double figures 11 times in a row since Brandon Knight in 2011.PREDICTION: Kentucky 88, Belmont 71

Oceana Chief Scientist to Testify on Offshore Drilling
Breaking news this morning: A Coast Guard official says the "top kill" maneuver has stopped the oil leak that has been gushing into the gulf for more than a month, though engineers still have to seal the well permanently with cement before they deem it a success.
And more good news -- President Obama will announce today that he is extending the moratorium on permits to drill new deepwater wells for six more months.
Meanwhile, this morning Oceana Senior Vice President and Chief Scientist Mike Hirshfield will testify about the costs of offshore drilling before the House Committee on Natural Resources.

Discovery Center Severe Wx Weekend
As you may know, LEGO Castle Adventure is on display at the Don Harrington Discovery Center but a lot of fun things are happening during this weekend and Spring Break as well.
Take a glimpse at how the Toons and the humans from 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit?' look today.
Katy Perry is one of my favorite female artist. She not only has the look, but she has an amazing voice! We want to send you to New Orleans to see her in concerts. And here are 5 song that I hope she plays.
$41.25 for poster supplies. That is what I dropped this week at Michael's on poster board, glitter, Sharpies, and various peel and stick shapes.
As you may know, LEGO Castle Adventure is on display at the Don Harrington Discovery Center but a lot of fun things are happening during this weekend and Spring Break as well.
So we are finally to that part of the year where we lose an hour of sleep. It is time to start Day Light Saving time.
There's so much new footage in the new TV trailer for 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier,' there's gotta be at least a spoiler or two in there somewhere. But unlike the last trailer, which almost definitely spoiled something, this one's a bit more up in the air about what it's revealing.
When last we checked in on 'The Simpsons' famous couch gags, the long-running animated series paid tribute to the animated works of Hayao Miyazaki, before that turning in gags from the likes of Guillermo del Toro, and Peter Jackson. Next up, watch America's favorite cartoon family animated in the style of French 'Triplets of Belleville' creator Sylvain Chomet!
Idris Elba has been on the verge of superstardom for a while now, and his latest role might get him in the hearts of young children (or at least frighten them). Elba is in final negotiations to join the cast of Jon Favreau's upcoming live-action version of 'The Jungle Book' as the voice of the dangerous tiger Shere Khan.
There's tons of speculation that the official trailer for 'Sin City: A Dame to Kill For' will make its premiere in theaters tomorrow, when '300: Rise of an Empire' opens. Makes sense, since both works come from the mind of comics genius Frank Miller.
It seems like just yesterday, we were watching a curiously hairy basketball star dominate his (its?) competition.
Katy Perry, meteorologist?
Welcome to another addition of the Mix Pet of the Week. Today we have a set of siblings that need to be adopted together. When they aren't with each other they cry. So if you are looking for the perfect couple of cats, I would like to introduce you to Captain and Tennille.

Breeders' Cup Classic (gr. I) contender Last Gunfighter and grade I winner Alpha head a competitive Nov. 30 edition of the $350,000 Hawthorne Gold Cup Handicap Presented by Xpressbet (gr. II).
Mordi's Miracle posted an upset in the $150,000 Sunshine Millions Classic Preview at Gulfstream Park Nov. 9, but his three-length triumph could hardly be termed a miracle.
Game On Dude, making his third start in the Classic, is the morning line favorite.
Seven-year-old faces Cross Traffic and star 3-year-olds Orb and Palace Malice in $1 million event at 1 1/4 miles Sept. 28 at Belmont Park.
At Belmont, Todd Pletcher worked Cross Traffic and Palace Malice while Chad Brown breezed Last Gunfighter, and at Saratoga Kiaran McLaughlin sent Alpha through his final paces for the Sept. 28 event.
Scratches took the field for the $148,500 Philip H. Iselin Stakes (gr. III) from eight to five, but they didn't derail a thrilling race down the lane between victorious odds-on choice Last Gunfighter and San Pablo.
Last Gunfighter, who had his six-race winning streak stopped by Flat Out in the Suburban Handicap (gr. II), looks to start another one when he takes on seven rivals in the 1 1/8-mile Philip H. Iselin Stakes at Monmouth Park.
The well-traveled Taptowne made a stop in West Virginia Aug. 3 and made off with the cash with a victory in the $200,000 West Virginia Governor's Stakes at Mountaineer Casino, Racetrack & Resort.
Nearly unbeatable at Belmont Park, Flat Out collected his fifth win from six starts at the New York oval while finishing much the best for his second victory in the $350,000 Suburban Handicap (gr. II) July 6.
Last Gunfighter has won six in a row, including the Pimlico Special (gr. III) last time out. On July 6 he looks to make it seven when he takes on a compact field including multi-millionare Flat Out.
Godolphin Racing's Alpha, who dead-heated for first in last year's Travers Stakes (gr. I), is set to make his next start July 6 in the $350,000 Suburban Handicap (gr. II) at Belmont Park.
On the day before the 145th running of the Belmont Stakes (gr. I), horsemen were primarily trying to make the best of things as steady showers dampened conditions--if not spirits--around New York's Belmont Park.
Two years after winning the Belmont Stakes, George and Lori Hall's Ruler On Ice will again travel the full circuit of the Belmont Park main track oval June 7 when he starts in the 1 1/2-mile Brooklyn Handicap.
Odds-on choice Last Gunfighter collared pacesetter Eighttofasttocatch in the final furlong and drew off by 4 1/4 lengths for his sixth consecutive victory May 17 in the $300,000 Pimlico Special (gr. III) in Baltimore, Md.
A full field of 13, including four graded stakes winners, will clash in the May 18 Red Bank Stakes (gr. IIIT) at Monmouth Park.
John Gunther's Last Gunfighter, who has won five in a row since his maiden victory last October, will invade Maryland and face mostly locally based horses in the $300,000 Pimlico Special (gr. III) May 1.
New Jersey-based trainer Kelly Breen and jockey 'Jersey' Joe Bravo have Black Onyx ready for a longshot run at the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I).

Game On Dude and Ron the Greek, two of the top older horses in training, are among the seven horses entered in the $1.5 million Charles Town Classic (gr. II) April 20.
Won the Excelsior Stakes on March 23 for his 5th straight win. More
Last Gunfighter overcame a troubled start and came through on the rail to win the $150,000 Excelsior Stakes (gr. III) March 23 at Aqueduct, while 2011 Belmont Stakes (gr. I) winner Ruler On Ice finished fifth.
The 3-1 second choice on the morning line for the $150,000 Excelsior Stakes (gr. III) March 23 at Aqueduct Racetrack is 2011 Belmont Stakes winner Ruler On Ice, who won an Aqueduct optional claimer Jan. 30.
Classic winner Ruler On Ice created some buzz at Aqueduct on a Wednesday afternoon when the 2011 Belmont Stakes (gr. I) winner unleashed a powerful stretch run to win an allowance optional claiming race Jan. 30.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Two Providence neighborhoods have been picked to participate in a pilot initiative that promotes children's health and well-being.
South Providence/Elmwood and the West End will be the first two neighborhoods to participate in the Evidence2Success initiative. Evidence2Success aims to improve young people's well-being in the areas of behavior, education, emotional and physical health, and positive relationships.
Each community with put together a group of leaders that will work with the Providence Children and Youth Cabinet to help select and implement youth programs in those areas.
Providence was the first city to collaborate with the Annie E. Casey Foundation on Evidence2Success.
City officials say a third community, Hartford/Olneyville, will join the initiative after its pilot phase.

I was looking up some stats and comparing players time spent in Charlotte. I found per game averages for players careers with the Bobcats. The top 4 point guards at this point in our history are in order, Felton, Walker, Knight, Augustin. This was based on PPG and APG
I stumbled across these stats when comparing Felton/Kemba
For Kemba
the stats are mpg, ppg, rpg, and apg
For Felton
I know it's only been one season and it was a horrible season with not so great talent surrounding Kemba but look at his stats.
He played almost 8 less minutes than Felton averaged for his career here and nearly equaled his scoring output a game, topped his rebounds per game, and came up 2 assists short of Felton's average. If Kemba was to average the same amount of minutes he'd get those 2 extra assists/gm(maybe not last year because of our horrible shooting and inability to score).
I know there's been alot of questions about whether or not he can be our point guard of the future or if he even is a point guard. He shot horrible last year, almost worst in the league for a starter but he was only a rookie. I think he has a chance to be the best point guard we've ever had. DJ only averaged 10 and 4 in his time here.
Brevin Knight averaged 10.8 and 8 fwiw.
I'm interested in seeing what type of numbers Kemba can put up with actual talent around him, i think with mkg running the break with him he'll see more assists this season. I don't know how many minutes Sessions will get and how that will be divided up but I think Kemba is our guy and can provide even better production than Felton did here.
What's your feedback? I used basketball-reference for the stats. Link below

Great work. you should do good here.
Looks like an Obey shirt, pretty tight.
Yea this is pretty intence. Great work.
Thanks for the input melanies & Intrepid. I was really into this drawing when I did it, I guess I let my fondness of it take presidence over the compasition.
This is a dope illustration. Good luck.
Classy low key mystreious design, I really hope this makes it to print.
Sick Illustration, Id have to agree with Intrepid on the character though. It draws you away from all the other great elements like the figure reflected in t...
Cleaver as hell. great work.
Great style!
Can easily see alot of time went into that peice. Great work.
That stencil graphic is just dope, and the texture of the background is sick too. All in all this shirt looks expensive but worth it.

While shopping at the Consumer Square WalMart, these two well dressed individuals appeared. I probably disappointed them when I wasn't surprised by their costumes; but, hey! I've seen just about everything living in this area.
I think that I made up for my lack of bewilderment at their appearance when I asked them to pose for this picture.

Ebert Gives Limbaugh Health Scare Two Thumbs Up
Posted By Chris Yogerst On January 5, 2010 @ 10:30 am In NewsReal Blog | No Comments
When I first read that Rush Limbaugh was in the hospital, I did a quick look at "tweets" with his name as keywords. What I found was a disgusting collection of death wishes. Of course, anytime a major figure might be staring death in the face there will always be a soulless group who wish the worst. No political pool has a monopoly on heartlessness, but I would hope that public personalities that disagree with him would leave him alone in his time of need.
It turns out that for the most part this is true, that is, unless you took at look at leftist film critic Roger Ebert's twitter page. People of Ebert's status should not be diving into the gutters of political discourse for a laugh.
Take a look at the following tweets from Ebert:
"Rush: Hawaii is the only country where the Hawaiian shirts come in S, M, L, XL, Rush, and Sumo."
"Rush says docs found nothing wrong. They're obviously not listeners."
"Surgeons: 'Rush doesn't require a heart transplant, but an installation.'"
"Tests find nothing wrong with Rush Limbaugh's heart. Physically."
There is nothing wrong with Ebert disagreeing with Limbaugh, but this is simply not acceptable. There is no reason to poke at someone when they are dealing with serious health issues. I would expect this type of garbage from ignorant and arrogant college-aged liberals, but not from people of Ebert's status. For someone who questions the intellectual level of this country, Ebert has only proven that he is not any better than those he criticizes.
While I am not a huge Limbaugh fan, it's doubtful he was laughing and joking when Ebert was fighting thyroid cancer. Why? Because it's not funny!
Ebert has long been a very astute film critic and while I do not share his political opinions I have respected him for quite some time. Over the years, however, he has managed to put more of his anger into his writing. Over the summer NewsReal Editor David Swindle and I wrote a piece regarding Ebert's unjust attack on Fox News host Bill O'Reilly by comparing him to fascist, pro-Hitler, anti-Semitic radio broadcaster Father Charles Coughlin:
"In making the comparison Ebert becomes what he seeks to condemn. He seeks to slap one of his ideological enemies with an intolerable image – that of a fascist radio broadcaster of the 1930s. This is something that O'Reilly and Olbermann do all the time – compare their ideological rivals to Nazis. Ebert's principle subject in college was English. Surely he can recognize when a metaphor overpowers its subject and distracts more than it helps."
There is an obvious pattern with Ebert these days. He likes to criticize people he disagrees with for using stupid argumentative tactics but then uses them himself. As we argued in our above article, if Ebert cannot raise himself to a respectable level of intellectual discipline for political commentary maybe he needs to stick with film criticism.

When you think of Austin events like SXSW and ACL probably come to mind. A lesser known gem happens right down the road from Austin that blows both of those festivals away. I'm talking about the Buda Weenie Dog Races. To commemorate Tallulah's first visit to the races I made her a weenie dog pull toy that she can race any day of the year.
Aleene's Tacky Glue
Wooden Dowel
Wooden Wheels
Small Wooden Bead
1" thick piece of wood
Crafty Chica Little Chica Paint Pack
Household Drill
Cardboard Box
Paint Brush
Celluclay Paper Mache
Dremel Tool
4 Screws
Draw a profile of a weenie dog onto a piece of cardboard. You can find applique pictures online if your freehand skills are not up to par. Also remember you can make your pull toy any animal your little heart desires. Next cut out 2 ears, 4 legs and 18 quarter sized circles.
ARMS, LEGS and EARS
One side at a time you need to glue stacks of 3 circles on the two leg spots and ear spot. Use Aleene's Tacky Glue between each disc and limb.
Allow to dry completely and then flip over and do the same thing.
Once the glue has dried completely mix up a batch of Celluclay Paper Mache.
I worked in small batches and put my dog on a cookie sheet in the oven at 200 degrees to speed up the drying process. I did a section at a time to build up his body.
Let your paper mache weenie dog dry completely. For me this meant overnight and a few hours in the oven. When the dog is dry lightly sand him with sandpaper to smooth out any rough spots.
Once your puppy is smooth to the touch paint him brown. For a little added bonus I tied a pink ribbon around his neck that I glued in place with a little Aleene's Tacky Glue. He was the belle of the ball at the Weenie Dog Races.
This is where the husband comes in handy, not that I could not have done this by myself. My fabulously handy husband Chris offered to do the "heavy lifting" in the project. You will need a rectangular piece of wood for your base thick enough to run a dowel through. Depending on what size dowel you have drill two holes that size through your wood. What size wheels you get will also depend on the size dowel you have. We used a Dremel tool to sand the tips of the dowel so they fit into our wheels a little better. We also used another dab of Aleene's Tacky Glue to make sure the wheels stayed in place.
Plain wood will just not do. Gather up your Crafty Chica Little Chica Paint Packs and get to adorning. I mixed my red and white to get pink. I used a trick the Crafty Chica herself taught me on an episode of Craft Lab which is to use the end of a pencil to create a polka dot effect with your paint.
Once your paint has dried go back with your Dremel and drill a small hole in the front center of your wooden base. Using 1ft of yarn or thread tie a small wooden bead to one end of your string and attach the other end to the base of your toy. This is how you will pull the toy.
Getting the legs on your paper mache wiener dog even is tricky business. Using small screws I attached the legs to the wooden base. I also added more Aleene's Tacky Glue under each paw.
Lucky for me when I started looking for instructions on pull toys good ole' Martha Stewart pulled through with advice. I tweaked the original design a bit and love the daschund I ended up with. I'm pretty smitten with the little guy and more importantly Tallulah is too.

Homemade Queso Blanco
Greetings Naughty Secretary Clubbers! It's Chris, Jen's ball 'n chain, and I wrote today's blog. It's a little recipe for making queso blanco. Enjoy!
After whipping up a couple of batches of beer with my friend Jeff, I thought it would be cool to try my hand at something else that rots: cheese. Unlike the beer, I did this on my own. Cheese doesn't really seem to lend itself to the buddy environment that beer does.
Since I don't own any cheesemaking equipment or have any experience, I started out small by making queso blanco. It seems weird to call this cheese because I made it in about an hour and there was no fermentation necessary. It also doesn't melt when it's heated, so keep that in mind.
4 Cups Whole Milk
1 Tablespoon White Vinegar
Cheese cloth
Wire whisk
Line the colander with cheese cloth and set aside. I don't have a proper colander, so I used the steamer basket that sits in a large pot, which worked nice as a drip bucket.
Heat the milk in the saucepan on the stove at medium-low heat (3). Get that thermometer in there and keep stirring with the whisk because you don't want to burn it. Slowly heat it to 180 F (82 C if you're fancy).
After it's heated to 180 F, continue stirring with the whisk while slowly adding the white vinegar. The milk will curdle right away. Keep stirring at that temperature for another 10-15 minutes.
Pour the milk mixture slowly into your cheese cloth lined colander.
Let it sit there for about 20 minutes so that it can cool.
Next, tie the corners of the cheese cloth together with one end of your your string. Tie the other end to something and in which you can hang your cheese bag from, like a cupboard knob or faucet, above a pot or the sink. I didn't have any string either so I used a phone charger cord. I'm resourceful like that. Leave it hanging until it stops dripping. Maybe 30 minutes to an hour.
You can put in the fridge or use it right away. I put this in the fridge because I made it in the morning and because I wanted to give it a chance to solidify.
Queso blanco can be used on a variety of dishes. Anything you might put cheese on. We put it on black beans with a little fresh cilantro. It doesn't have a strong taste, so you can be liberal with the portions, and it's just an easy way to brighten up a dish.

Catch a Tiger Collection by the Tail
I promised to slowly, but surely reveal all of my collections to you. Today is all about my love of all things tiger. Heck I have a hot pink and green tiger tattoo on my arm, you know I'm a fan.
I know you guys all think my rubber faced dolls are creepy, but I love them. This one was my mom's when she was a teenager. Her high School team was the Troup Tigers.
I'm trying to start Tallulah out on the love of tigers early with this picture above her bed. Check out the rest of her nursery here.
Right you when you walk in my front door not only are you greeted by poodles in bow-ties, but also by a smiling tiger.
I even have tiger themed items in my wardrobe, lot's of them actually. Check out how to make your own El Tigre Hoodie here.
When I saw MIA wearing these tiger striped Converse in the video for "Paper Planes" I too had to own a pair.
A pair of bootyliscious saber tooth tigers stand guard on the north wall of my living room.
One of my favorite necklaces I have made in forever was adorned in tiger art by my sister Hope Perkins. Check out how to make your own here.
If a donkey and a tiger had a baby.
I have not one, but two tiger pillows in my possession. This cutie lives on the bed in my spare bedroom.
Pillow number two is an embroidered fellow from Vietnam that lives in my game room.
Also in my living room hangs a picture that used to be in my grandmother's dining room. My dad sent it to her from Hawaii when he was stationed in the army there.
I heart tigers so much I even burned a screen with one on my Yudu.
The south wall of my living room has a couple of tigers high up on a book shelf.
There you have it, a glimpse inside my tiger world. I leave you with a fcouple past blog posts that I think are pretty grrrreat!
Animals in the Army.
Go Fly a Kite.
Know of any other fabulous tiger goodies out there I need to add to my collection?

Handmade in Hollywood
Here we are with our second installment of Handmade in Hollywood, where we do craft spotting on the big screen. You might recall my fascination with suitcase conversions. There was my laptop case made from a suitcase, my suitcase craft room storage - heck I even did a round-up of my favorite suitcase conversions from the blogosphere.
That being the case when I saw suitcase shrines being made in the movie White Oleander I was pretty giddy with excitement.

I Love to Create - Polka Dotted Mushroom Stool
With spring in the air everyone needs a toadstool in their garden or on their patio. You could buy one from your local garden center or you could easily make one like I did.
White Felt
White Crafty Chica Paint
Red Felt
Concrete Pier Form
Liquid Fusion Glue
Staple Gun
Fabric Fusion Glue
Paint Brush
Wooden Disc (several inches larger in diameter than your stool base)
Actually I didn't do any dumpster diving. What I did do was cruise my neighborhood during bulk trash week. On a nearby street I found several large cardboard tubes which I was later informed are concrete pier forms. They were also filled with lots of wooden dowels that I snagged.
I covered the cardboard in 2 coats of white Crafty Chica paint.
Using a mug as my template I traced 12 circles onto white felt. I then cut the circles out and used Liquid Fusion Glue to attach them to a piece of red felt.
I traced my wooden disc onto foam and cut it out with scissors. If your foam is super thick you may need to use an electric knife.
I glued my foam to the wood using Liquid Fusion Glue. I also padded my stool with some extra batting.
Once the glue dried on my foam I sat it face down on the non-polka dotted side of my red felt. Using my staple gun and scissors I pulled, tucked, stapled and trimmed the felt. I tried to make sure the felt did not pucker and was nice and taunt on the top of the cushion.
I used a heaping helping of Liquid Fusion glue to attach my stool top to it's base.
Though my stool is not water proof on a sunny day it looks pretty dang cute sitting on my back porch just waiting for someone to pop a squat.
When someone is not sitting on my new polka dotted mushroom stool Tallulah enjoys playing with it. Next I need to make a giant paper mache garden gnome.

Murphy's State Fair concert to benefit food banks
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- "America's Got Talent" 2011 winner Landau Eugene Murphy Jr. will perform in a benefit concert at 7 p.m. Aug. 12 at the State Fair of West Virginia.

The "Landau Buy One Get One Free" promotion encourages concertgoers to purchase one concert ticket and receive a second ticket for free by donating five or more nonperishable food items.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin recently praised Murphy and the state fair for the benefit.
Ticket prices range from $12 to $18 each. The "Landau Buy One Get One Free" promotion continues while supplies last. Concertgoers can bring nonperishable food items to the state fair box office in Fairlea from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Local bluegrass band The Fort Hillbillies will play in the Clay Center garden, where guests can take a few turns around the dance floor and nibble on Southern-style snacks prepared by Charleston Embassy Suites. Smooth Ambler Spirits will also be onsite to pass out samples of their signature white whiskey drinks.

Design submitted by Rachid from Switzerland.
After reading different comments on Rachid's previous design, Always 10:10 LED Analog Watch Design, he decided to redesign the concept with a different approach.
There are 3 different case designs to interpret time. Left square on all designs indicate hours and right square for the minutes.
V1 is a version with apparent mechanism and a minimalist pseudo-hands. V2 also has an apparent mechanism but the p-h are inspired by 80′s sunglasses. V3 has a minimally hidden mechanism using a linear color marking system.

He plans to be a surgeon of some sort. 6 years later, my mom became unexpectedly pregnant. To even out the genders, we wanted a girl, and so another girl is what we got. Her name is Faith Olivia. She hates the name Faith and goes by Libby. She is 11 and in 6th grade. Libby doesn't have a clue on what she "wants to be when she grows up" and rarely thinks about it.

My Story:
My name is Eleanor Sage Woodley. You can call me Nell. I was born on August 1st 1990 in Santa Barbara CA to Margaret Alice Banks. You can call her Mags. My dad was there when I was born, changed a few diapers, then left. We haven't heard from him since. My mom worked hard to provide for me though, and she ended up saving enough to get us a beautiful house: http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-7665...ice-house.html
When I was 17, I graduated with honors and was named Valedectorian. My mom was so proud, she threw a party and invited everyone we had ever met. I went to King's College in Wilkes-Barre, PA and majored in Biology, and I hoped to become a doctor.Hannah, 15.
