Casual fans accept that Disney movies take place once upon a time, in a land far, far away. But Tumblr users are not casual fans. And they want it all to Mean Something.
Welcome to the esoteric and frankly mind-boggling world of Disney fan theories, which posits that all of Disney's animated movies take place in the same universe and characters from different films interact - across the decades and centuries! - in ways you have to squint to see. Andy's mom in "Toy Story" is actually the cowgirl-doll Jessie's original owner. Belle, from "Beauty and the Beast," secretly loved Aladdin. The latest fan theory rocking this small-but-vocal corner of the Internet involves "Frozen" and 1989's "The Little Mermaid": What if, fans argue, the sunken ship Ariel explored 24 years ago. . . was actually the ship where Anna and Elsa's parents perished in "Frozen"?!
The evidence for this theory is, of course, scarce, despite the amazing effort that some people have pumped into researching it. Still, the idea isn't so crazy when you consider Disney's penchant for dropping similar Easter eggs over the years. Dogs from "Lady & the Tramp" surface in "101 Dalmations"; so-called "Hidden Mickey's" and subliminal messages, often sexual, show up in most films. At one point in Disney's "Aladdin", the sultan stacks a series of model animals that include the beast, from "Beauty and the Beast" - conclusive proof, fans argue, that Disney's creators intended for both films to live in the same "universe."
What that universe would look like, it's hard to say. It would have to include places as far removed as modern-day Australia and magical medieval kingdoms. (Which has led to another unified theory of Disney movies: They take place in the same universe, but non-chronologically, along a timeline that spans millions of years.) Further complicating things - some Disney movies are explicitly tied to real geographic locations, while others are not. Just try pointing to Atlantis on a map.
Nevertheless, that hasn't stopped many fans from trying to plot the Disney universe. An early effort by Redditor translucentfish controversially put "Aladdin" in Saudi Arabia, and "Tangled" close to Germany. Twenty-six-year-old Eowyn Smith's recent map, which she posted with extensive citations on Deviantart, racked up thousands of comments and dozens of media mentions within days. Smith told the Huffington Post that she re-watched all of the Disney movies, noting wildlife, backgrounds and landscapes, in order to make the map. She was helped by fan blogs like Finding Corona and Finding Arendelle, which exist solely to hypothesize where the movies would take place in real life.
All this begs an obvious question: why? Aren't Disney movies enough as discrete, self-contained little pieces of art? Do we have to seek out further meaning? With their clue-sifting and screen-shotting and arcanely labeled diagrams, die-hard Disney theorists share something with their zanier, more paranoid cousins in the conspiracy world: a belief that some greater power is orchestrating everything, and they are the only ones in on the plot.
Of course, there's a big gap between blogging about the New World Order's political machinations and Disney's creative ones. The latter is, obviously, more fun. (Also saner.) That said, it's pretty absurd to think some god-like creative at Disney is lurking in the wings, anonymously plotting the interacting story arcs of hundreds of films and characters.
Then again, if the Tumblr hordes have time for that . . . why wouldn't Disney?

Recommended for ages 8+.More...Everyone loves a cold, frosty mug of root beer, and let's not forget the root beer float! But where did this historic drink come from?Root Beer HistoryAccording to historical documents, Shakespeare drank something called "small beers." This brew was actually made from an early colonial American recipe and it contained 2 to 12 percent alcohol and was considered a "light, social drink."During American Colonial times, root beer was introduced along with Birch Beer, Sarsparilla Beer, and Ginger Beer. Only root beer would reign as a longtime favorite. Medicinal HistoryMost historians say that an actual root beer recipe happened by pure accident, by an eager pharmacist looking for a miricle drug. Even though people were drinking an herbal home brewed variety of root beer for years, it was mostly an experiment for the creative and inventive. In 1870, a pharmacist came up with a recipe for root beer consisting of juniper, wintergreen, spikenard, pipsissewa, sarsaparilla, vanilla beans, hops, dog grass, birch bark and licorice. The drink was very medicinal and tasted both bitter and sweet. It was offered to the public as a cure-all, however, it was never widely marketed or well-received. No matter what root beer history story you believe, root beer is an original brew that predates colas and other sodas. Brew your own, and relive its historical origins today!

For the last few days, I've been seeing the six-minute clip of Louis C.K. railing against the use of smartphones all over my smartphone. Every time I check my email, or read Twitter, or otherwise distract myself from life's essential loneliness, his sermon from the couch appears on my tiny screen, underlined with rapturous agreement. C.K. "nails it" on the "bleak, depressing reality of smartphones," the headlines tell me. His notion that "you need to build an ability to just be yourself and not do anything" is "sad, brilliant," "impressively existential," and "frighteningly on the money."
The fact that so many people in my social network have been so inspired by the comedian's attack on social networks suggests that no one finds his thesis too surprising. That's how social networks work: Likes beget shares, and shares beget likes. We're moved by C.K.'s speech because he's telling us what we know already: that phones distract us from the mindful contemplation of our lives; that they corrupt our souls and make us less compassionate. Nothing could be more in line with the backdoor Buddhism that defines the Louis Liberal.
But C.K.'s rant about smartphones invokes a deep conservatism, too. When he speaks out against the evils of technology, he short-circuits an important debate by appealing to an old anxiety. Do new forms of communication erode the public sphere? Do they degrade the human spirit? Perhaps — but we've been working through these questions since the invention of the printed book, and never found a simple answer. So why has C.K.'s crude and fearful take on texting earned such widespread approbation?
Here is the clip that has generated considerable discussion:

Posted in Dr. Phillips CineDome
From 1975 to 1995 Florida was amongst the only four states that did not have any earthquakes; however, our state has not escaped all seismic shocks. For instance, in 1866, an earthquake in Charleston, South Carolina (two states away!) sent shocks throughout northern Florida and along its east coast. Of course this is nothing compared to the near 10,000 earthquakes of varying magnitudes occuring EACH year in southern California – luckily our state is not located on any hazardous faults or fault zones!

The Bachelor: Episode 7 Recap
I'd like to take this opportunity to award Ben as the worst bachelor out of all the seasons. From Day 1 he started making out with each girl and I think he is not ready to settle down. Seems like he's just trying to find somewhere to keep his lips busy for a few months --- and promote his winery at the same time.
The Bachelor: Episode 6 Recap
What the heck was Jamie doing? I felt so awkward that I started sweating. I'm not sure what she said during "Kissing 101," but it's equivalent to this: "So you close your mouth, I'll open mine, and then close it while you open. OK, keep your mouth shut. Ready? Go." Everyone in America who was watching that is now more dumb. Jamie, I award you no rose, and may god have mercy on your soul.
The Bachelor: Episode 5 Recap
Going to keep it short and sweet this week and prepare for the fireworks that happen next week. A few quick comments: Lindzi and Kacie B. are awesome. For a model, Courtney is not as pretty as she thinks she is. She reminds me of Vienna. Lastly, Ben is just not a good Bachelor.

If the board of directors of a troubled animal shelter has voted to take action in light of an I-Team investigation, no one is saying so yet.Boggs Mountain Humane Shelter in the north Georgia Mountains is under GBI investigation following disturbing evidence uncovered by the FOX 5 I-Team.The shelter closed early Friday as its board of directors held a meeting at an undisclosed location to consider the findings of the investigation and the beginnings of a criminal case. The board began a meeting at 3 p.m., supposedly to decide what to do about their controversial shelter director. But so far, there has been no announcement about the meeting. By all indications, director Lowanda Kilby is still in charge"This is a very emotional moment for a lot of people," said Rabun County Sheriff Frank Andrews.Andrews is not exaggerating. Our undercover investigation touched people across the country. A supposed no-kill animal shelter that offered this extra guarantee: sponsor a "Lucky" dog or cat and, for $100, ensure the animal would not be killed but actually made easier to adopt.Yet we obtained records showing at least a dozen Lucky dogs or cats euthanized since May, including two we actually played with during our undercover visit. A whistleblower says shortly after we left, workers put Sally and Lola to sleep because they needed room for more dogs.The people who donated money for many of those unlucky dogs or cats even got an email from Boggs Mountain, falsely assuring them their sponsored animal had been adopted.Rabun County authorities started investigating allegations of theft by deception and animal cruelty, but because Boggs Mountain also gets $175,000 to enforce the county animal ordinance, the sheriff asked the GBI to take the lead. Once they got the case, GBI agents spent most of Thursday afternoon at the shelter, examining records and obtaining some of the same documents we first revealed in our investigation. The district attorney even came by, underscoring the seriousness of this case."I just ask that people be patient and let this investigation take its course and then once everything's in place, we'll know exactly what's going to happen," said Andrews.The board of directors is made up of several former residents of metro Atlanta who are now part of the Rabun County community.The chairperson is a longtime executive from Macy's; the vice-chair is from IBM.

By Merl Reagle
Special to The Washington Post
— On a snowy evening in the early 1900s, a newspaper editor at the New York World was hunched over his desk trying to think of something special for the Christmas issue.
Remembering the small word squares he'd solved as a young Brit in Liverpool, he drew a diamond-shaped grid with numbered squares and numbered clues. It contained 32 words, and his simple instruction read: "Fill in the small squares with words which agree with the following definitions."
The puzzle appeared Dec. 21, 1913, and what 42-year-old Arthur Wynne had created was the first crossword puzzle.
It was an instant success. Mail poured in. Readers didn't mind that the first puzzle contained some very unusual words, such as NEIF, TANE, NEVA and NARD. Or that the word DOVE appeared twice, once clued as"a bird" and once as "a pigeon." Or that the most unusual word was DOH, defined as "the fibre of the gomuti palm," a clue that, if it appeared today, would elicit much the same reaction from solvers as it would from Homer Simpson.
Seeing the crossword's popularity, Wynne pushed for the newspaper to copyright it, but his bosses, who included two of Joseph Pulitzer's sons, considered the crossword a passing trifle. New York Times editorials labeled them a waste of time.
After just a few years, Wynne's interest waned. He still made crosswords, but he also accepted reader submissions, becoming the country's first crossword editor as well. By 1921, after eight years as captain of the crossword, Wynne handed the wheel to someone else.
That someone was a Smith grad named Margaret Petherbridge, a World secretary who had hopes of being a journalist. Like almost everyone on the staff, she was utterly uninterested in the crossword and simply picked the ones that had interesting shapes. She never tried solving one.
However, the paper's most popular columnist, Franklin P. Adams, was an avid fan and began leaving his solved puzzles on Petherbridge's desk, with the mistakes highlighted. Because the grids were a pain to create, the paper's typesetters did their best to kill the crossword, running the clues in ever-decreasing tiny type and omitting some altogether.
After a year, Petherbridge had been shamed enough. She decided to try to solve a puzzle — and couldn't. Rather than feel Adams's glare, she set about organizing the puzzles in her files. Within months she had devised rules for crossword creators — amazingly, a list still followed today. She simplified the numbering system (Wynne had always numbered the ending square of each word as well as the starting square), stressed the use of common English words (obscure foreign terms had crept in), limited the black squares to one-sixth of the grid and, in essence, standardized the crossword puzzle.
From then on, puzzles that had a high degree of craftsmanship were first to be chosen. The crossword finally looked like a feature that was here to stay.
Then, in 1924, two Columbia grads decided they wanted to get into publishing. Crossword puzzles were more popular than ever, yet there had never been a collection in book form. So they enlisted Petherbridge and two colleagues to compile one: "The Cross Word Puzzle Book." It sold 400,000 copies in only a few months.
Two more books followed, selling 2 million copies in two years. The two young publishers were Dick Simon and Max Schuster, and the first crossword book launched their careers.
And Petherbridge's career. With the books, crosswords became a national phenomenon. Petherbridge married in 1926, becoming Margaret P. Farrar, and under that name she would go on to edit the Simon & Schuster crossword series for 60 years.
She called it her "inadvertent profession." When she started in the 1920s she never expected such a seemingly genteel activity to be so controversial. The crossword craze killed mah-jongg virtually overnight. (Mah-jongg dealers put this note in the New Yorker: "Roses are red, violets are blue, we'd like to cut your throats for you.")
There was a crossword-related news story in the New York papers almost every week: A Baptist preacher constructed a crossword for a sermon. A man refused to leave a restaurant until he finished a crossword and had to be escorted out by police. A Cleveland woman was granted a divorce because her husband was obsessed with crosswords. A Budapest waiter explained in a crossword why he was committing suicide; police were unable to solve it.
The Broadway show "Puzzles of 1925" had a skit in which crossword fans were depicted as patients in a sanitarium. Commuter trains started putting dictionaries in every car. The Los Angeles Public Library had to enforce a limit on how long you could use the dictionary. England's Queen Mary became a crossword fan. The Chicago Department of Health declared that crossword solving was beneficial to health and happiness. And thesaurus author Peter Roget was declared "the patron saint of crossworders."
All the while, the Times called crossword solving "a temporary madness," serving "no useful purpose whatsoever," and an "epidemic" that would soon be over.
In 1942 the Times finally gave in and hired Margaret P. Farrar as its first crossword editor.
So whatever happened to Arthur Wynne?
As readers of The Washington Post may know, I make the crossword for the Post magazine every Sunday. I live in Tampa, Fla., but in this age of instant everything, I just attach the puzzle in an email and click "send."
Such technology has made my puzzling life much less puzzling. And it was while surfing the Web in the 1990s that I found Wynne's grainy Associated Press obit from the Jan. 17, 1945, Toronto Daily Star. It was one paragraph:
"Clearwater, Fla. (AP) — Arthur Wynn, credited with inventing the crossword puzzle, died Sunday. . . . Wynn was born in Liverpool, England, and came to the U.S. 50 years ago to enter the newspaper business."
First, I was stunned that the man who had invented a feature that was in nearly every newspaper in the world, even in 1945, was given such short shrift. Second, that they spelled his name wrong. And third, that he died in Clearwater. There I was, a lifelong puzzle guy in Tampa, reading that the man who invented the crossword puzzle had died 25 miles from where I was sitting.
Or, standing, since I had bolted out of the chair. I asked an editor friend at the St. Petersburg Times (now the Tampa Bay Times) to check its archives for articles. There were precious few, with nothing new.
I did know what most of us in the crossword world knew. Excellent books have been written about the crossword's early days: "The Compleat Cruciverbalist," "Creative Cruciverbalists" and "What's Gnu?"
I knew that when Wynne was a boy he loved word games and the violin. He wanted to be a newspaperman, but his father, a newspaperman himself, forbade it. At 19, Arthur packed one bag and his violin, and with $30 in his pocket sailed to the United States. (Strangely, this mirrors my own life: At 20 I was a puzzle fan, played the organ and piano, and worked as a newspaper copy editor.)
Wynne found a newspaper job in Pittsburgh and played the violin in orchestras. Then he got the job at the World. He moved to Cedar Grove, N.J., and commuted every day. After inventing the crossword he became a frequent customer at New York's famous Palm restaurant, where a wall caricature of him remains to this day. He worked for the Hearst papers in the 1930s. In 1941 he moved to Clearwater for health reasons and died four years later.
And that became the puzzle with no answer: Where was he buried? Somewhere in Tampa Bay? If so, is there a gravestone? Or was he transported to a family plot in Liverpool? Fifteen years later I still had no answer.
The break came in July this year. While surfing the Web, my wife, Marie, found the hometown obit of Wynne's oldest daughter, Janet. It mentioned that there was another daughter living in Clearwater. Wynne had married a third time to a much younger woman and had fathered a child at 62. That daughter's name was Catherine Wynne — they called her Kay — and she was 11 when her father died.
Her married name was Kay Wynne Cutler. She had turned 80 in April and was living in Clearwater. It took Marie only minutes to find her number and call. A bright-sounding woman answered. The conversation lasted 15 minutes. We tried not to show that we were giddy as kids in an ice cream parlor. We agreed to meet.
Kay walks with a cane but is sharp. She laughs easily. She brought articles about her father. As far as she knows she is the only one in the family who is a crossword fan.
She had the answer to my "grave" question. There was no burial site because there was no burial. Her father had been cremated. Kay says she was too young to know, but she thinks his ashes were scattered in the Gulf of Mexico. At the time, she was a student at Anona Elementary, a happy accident for the daughter of a puzzle creator — the name of the school is a palindrome.
Kay said her father used to say that he never made a penny off the crossword puzzle. In this, the 100th anniversary of his invention, I hope he can settle for recognition.

MIDDLEBURG, Pa. — "It goes like heck," said Vern Heimbach of his 6-foot-long model of the Titanic. "I've had it in the pool, and it does not like to stop."
That's right. In the swimming pool.
The model – built on a scale of 1 to 144 of the original ocean liner -- is not just a showboat. With a custom-built rudder, propellers and remote control, it's made to sail, all the while looking like its namesake, down to the tiniest detail.
At least, as much detail as Heimbach, 33, of Middleburg, Pa., could find. The Titanic sank 100 years ago off the coast of Newfoundland only a few days into its transoceanic voyage and photos of the doomed ocean liner are rare.
Heimbach said many pictures of the Titanic are actually of its sister ship, the lesser-known though nearly identical Olympic.
The Titanic, he said, was "just neat" and its stately look caused him to order a model ship kit that included the hull, four funnels and most of the life boats. He made just about everything else on the ship, doing most of the painstakingly detailed work in the past year.
"I tried to stay as close as I could to how it was supposed to be," he said. He consulted reference books and, of course, watched the 1997 James Cameron movie, "The Titanic," starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, no less than 13 times.
The research helped him accurately replicate lights, windows, stairwells, and railings, though when he couldn't find pictures or diagrams, he had to use his own judgment.
With balsa wood and oak tag, he built vents, stairwells, and the many odd-shaped, important-looking but unidentifiable contraptions found on any ship. He used telephone wire and individual strands from metal screens to make poles and railings around the upper decks, working with pliers and tweezers to glue everything into place before painting it.

Great Value. The quality of this rug is very good for the price. I bought three, sage color. The color is more of an olive color than sage but I still like them. I'll be back for more!
I ordered this for a long hallway and I am very pleased. The pattern is distinct and I think the rug looks like a more expensive wool rug. It also is thicker than I thought it would be. I did put a rug gripper underneath so it wouldn't slide. My hallway looks much better!
The rug runner was exactly as described. The quality and workmanship is terrific - the rug looks great. Would recommend it to buy.
I've had this rug and the same 3x5 rug for a year. They wear really well, vaccuum great......The only thing was is that I ordered sage, and the color is really a deep olive green. Great color, but did not match my decor. So if you're looking at the green.....it's Dark OLIVE
I ordered this rug for my entranceway. I am used to ordering wool rugs of a higher quality but this rug will get a lot of wear and tear so I didn't want to invest in a more expensive rug that will just get ruined after a year or two. The rug is a bit thinner than I expected and the backing is very rough.I bought a high quality pad (cost almost as much as the rug!) to protect the hardwood flooring underneath the rug. The rug is, however, very attractive and looks great on the floor. I have even received a few compliments.
I bought the sage runner to place in front of our fireplace and I'm very pleased with the look, the feel, and the price of the rug.
The Caroline Sarouk Emerien runner brightens the entryway in the three-year-old apartment house where I live on the top floor. The runner has a rich feel and look. It fits the space just about perfectly.
Longer than I thought but looks great in my hall. Really quick delivery
Bought some runners for my sons bedroom, to protect the wood floor from getting scraped up from the bed. Rug is thick, and a little long for the purpose of putting underneath the bed frame wheels. Rolled up the end near the headboard to keep it from sliding up to the wall. Rug looks high quality, from the looks of it I would think it was wool without seeing the label.
This runner met our needs. It is excellent quality and has help up very well in a high traffic area of our home. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another. The colors are rich and the pattern looks like a high quality carpet.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
After a scenic drive along the Bay of Naples, you will arrive at the remarkable ruins of Pompeii at the foot of Mt. Vesuvius. The excavated ruins of Pompeii are considered one the finest representations of an Italian city at the height of the Roman Empire. Walking through the city, which was buried in ash from the devastating volcanic eruption in 79 A.D., you will gain great insight into what ancient life must have been like here. Time seems frozen, as you observe the eerie plaster casts of numerous victims, who are caught in their final moment of life. Now a World Heritage Site, Pompeii is filled with aristocratic villas, temples and a forum, which was the heart of the city. This coastal area has thrived for centuries, and much of its lure is natural beauty, which you will see on the return trip, which passes the seaside resorts of Castellamare and Sorrento. On the way, you will have a short stop at the inlaid woodwork demonstration.
Please note: Mini-buses will be used to transfer guests from the pier to the motor coach parking lot and vice versa. The drive between Sorrento and Pompeii is approximately 1 hour in each direction. In the event of heavy highway traffic, the overall length of the tour may be extended. This tour involves considerable amount of walking (approximately 2 hours) on cobblestone streets, therefore this tour is not considered suitable for wheelchair guests or those with mobility concerns.
NOTICE: All Oceania Cruises shore excursion fares are listed per person, and are subject to change and availability. Some tours are capacity controlled and may be withdrawn at any time without prior notice. Tour departure times are subject to change so please reference your actual tour ticket for the correct departure time.

PHOENIX (AP) - Lottery winners in Arizona would be able to keep their anonymity under a bill passed by the state House of Representatives by a wide margin.
Republican Rep. John Kavanagh of Fountain Hills sponsored the bill and says players shouldn't face safety risks just because they're lucky enough to win big.
Kavanagh's proposal comes after a recent Powerball jackpot win by a Fountain Hills man whose name was released under Arizona's public records laws.
The bill still requires a prizewinners' hometown and county to be released and allows the Arizona Lottery to name winners who don't object.
The House passed the bill by a vote of 51-8 with one member not voting on Tuesday. It now goes to the Senate.

Read: Where We Are At Today With The Labor Talks
Last night, Bob McKenzie sent out a tweet saying that he "never felt as discouraged about the state of the NHL as today."
In response that there were no plans for a bargaining session, Kevin Allen tweeted yesterday that it wasn't the kind of thing the wanted to hear.
In the Ottawa Sun, Bruce Garrioch writes that time is running out to get a 60 game season going and that "at this juncture, any agreement looks like wishful thinking."
He also notes that the NHL wants to save the season but they may have to start canceling games in December.
In a tweet this morning, Darren Dreger said "players keep telling me they're optimistic a deal will get done, while owners tell me they have no confidence in that."
I know of GMs telling people there will be hockey Jan. 1. I know of another GM telling people there will be no season. No one knows.—
Nick Cotsonika (@cotsonika) November 14, 2012
Cotsonika adds 'The facts: The sides have inched closer, and there is a deal to be made. But there are still fundamental differences, and this is chicken.'
11:33AM: Gord Miller of TSN tweets "I spoke with an NHL exec who thinks that this dispute will wipe out this season, and continue into the start of next season."
In response, Dreger said to Miller "Yes. I've been told the same. However, players don't buy it."
Dreger sent out two other tweets:
- People asking whether CBA talks are in a deep freeze. Well, NHL won't meet for sake of meeting. Need something from players.
- Conversely, the players insist they need the league to show some flexibility on contractual issues. Both sides need more trust to show flex.

We stand by idly as you bat your eyelashes, cast possible suitors aside between conventions and debates and eventually you set your sights on the two most viable contestants for the position of... boyfriend. Oh, and you talk about it day and night, like we have nothing going on in our lives that you care about, but that's a story for another day.
Back in the day, it wasn't that hard to watch. You had plenty of good men to pick from. You didn't seem to care about superficial things like teeth and hair and swarthy good looks. Heck, you didn't even seem to care about the way they dressed. It was all about what they had going on. You were so cool back then. Those first few boyfriends were all that.
For years, you had your pick. Oh sure, you had ups and downs, just like any gal playing the field. When you were in a bad relationship, you got out and started over. It was like the world was your match.com and you could just log on and get a new boyfriend - every four years, like that.
We're not sure when it happened, but at some point, you lost your mojo:
Sister, we say this because we lurrve you. Sometimes you have lousy taste in boyfriends. And because you can't be on your own, you always have rebounds... and rebounds can be good guys, but clumsy and oafish and even though they mean well they always feel like a rebound and maybe it just doesn't gel for some reason:
And sometimes, you pick real good-ol'boy types, and that's fine with us... we don't care as long as you are happy. But if you're not happy, we're not happy. We want you to be happy.
We understand, everyone falls in love with a movie star hero-type at some point. And whether or not he is good to you at the time, you will always hold him up on a pedestal because of his charm, his looks, his communication skills. And while we agree that all good boyfriends should have these traits, we still just want you to be happy.
Because, ultimately, we know you really haven't been truly happy since...
It seemed like you got pretty close for a while. We actually got busy with our own stuff and stopped obsessing about your relationships for a while. We're sort of like Jan Brady that way... it's always "Marsha, Marsha, Marsha"... and even if you have a boyfriend that is a little smarmy and Greg thinks he's up to no good, he generally treated you well and we wanted you to get on with your life and make the best of it.
We talked to our therapist about your self-sabotage. We worried about you. It was like you'd changed, from back in the old days on the playground when you could have any guy you wanted and you picked the best of the best and let's just say they didn't have "daddy issues" and now, here we are, you are in such a bad relationship and you can make another choice that will change your life forever. And maybe ours, too.
We just have to ask, what did you ever see in him in the first place? We never liked him. Now you're just stuck in this crappy relationship until it comes to its anticlimactic finale and we can hardly wait for you to break free and find someone new. Someone who will respect you and treat you like the great gal that you are and not just show you a good time but take care of you and help you get on your feet again.

ATHENS, Ala. — A colonel in the U.S. Army said he believes President Obama's re-election may have spurred vandals to topple and smash more than 70 gravesites at a predominantly black cemetery.
"We are not going to let this deter us," said Col. James Walker, who stopped by the cemetery in Limestone County recently to plant flags at two burial plots honoring his cousins who fought in World War II. More than 200 people are buried in marked and unmarked graves in the private cemetery that is affiliated with Little Ezekiel Church.
Among them is the headstone of one of the Montford Point Marines, who was one of more than 19,000 black men who trained at segregated Montford Point, N.C., between 1942-49. Those marines collectively received the Congressional Gold Medal in June, the highest civilian honor bestowed by the U.S. Congress. Officials said the damage occurred between Nov. 5 and 7. Election Day was Nov. 6.

Even hitting just three home runs and getting knocked out after the first round couldn't diminish the experience for Ortiz, who, after his exit, turned into Miguel Tejada's personal cheering section.
Tejada, who won the contest with a record-setting 27 homers, credited his fellow Dominican from the Red Sox with an assist.
"He's great," Tejada said of Ortiz. "You see him, he's [patting my face with a towel]. I'm sweating and I love that. I think he's part of the win, too."
If you asked Ortiz what his favorite highlight was from this derby, he would be positively stumped.
Maybe it was running up to home plate and coaching Tejada to breathe in the exact same fashion Ortiz coached his wife, Tiffany, through labor just 48 hours earlier. Or perhaps it was watching in pure awe as Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Reggie Jackson and Co. greeted the participants in the pre-derby ceremony that celebrated the 500-homer club. Come to think of it, maybe it was watching the jaw-dropping show put on by hometown hero Lance Berkman in the second round.
"How about Berkman, dude. He was awesome," Ortiz said. "He's great. I was expecting him to go lefty, and he was ... 'I'm going to put on a show here.' He put so much into it that one round that he got a little tired. The home run derby, dude, you get tired."
Which is exactly why he thought Tejada needed a little cool-down during his record-setting second round of 15 homers.
"When Tejada was getting tired, I was like, breathe, dude," said Ortiz. "It was great. That guy was unbelievable. This guy, you know what we call him back home, we call him The Bus, because whenever anyone's on the bag, he picks them up."
Before the contest had even started, Ortiz was already relishing the moment. One by one, Hall of Fame sluggers came by and greeted him on their way to the field.
Ortiz plans on continuing this tradition every July.
"You know, from now on I'm going to [do well] in the first half, because I want to be in every All-Star Game," said Ortiz.
While he didn't seem nervous, he got the sense his batting practice pitcher Ino Guerrerro was.
Ortiz looked at the first four pitches he saw and didn't hit a home run until he had already used up five of his 10 outs.
"He got a little nervous, but I don't blame him," Ortiz said. "He told me, 'I won't get nervous.' I was like, 'Wait until you have 50,000 people looking at you. No cage, no nothing.'"
Teammate Manny Ramirez did his best to urge Ortiz on to victory, even walking to home plate during the middle of his round and rubbing his neck.
"He was trying to program me," laughed Ortiz.
As it turns out, Ortiz was right with the program. He was just there to soak in one of the most memorable nights of his baseball life.

Believers in U.S. decline will be disappointed
But to believe that capitalism and its most visible face — the United States — are in an inexorable decline as Venezuela's ruling party states and a surprising number of Venezuelans, Argentines, Bolivians and other Latin Americans still believe, flies in the face of reality. In fact, the opposite is true.
Latin America's Talent for Tolerance
Before every World Cup match in Brazil, the players lined up in front of a banner that read, "Say No to Racism." The message was particularly directed toward the soccer stadiums of Europe, where there have been many instances of racial taunting and physical aggression by hostile fans against African and other black players.

|Gluten-free coconut chocolate layer bars.
Now get ready to party.
Coconut Chocolate Nirvana Layers Bar Recipe
Originally published January 2006.These easy layered cookie bars are based on those yummy retro-vintage Hello Dolly bars. I've made them gluten and dairy free using sweetened condensed coconut milk. Dairy options are given as well.
1/2 cup butter or vegan margarine, such as Smart Balance
1 1/2 cups gluten-free Pamela's Chocolate Cookies, processed into crumbs*
1 cup (heaping) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup chopped roasted almonds (I used salted because I like a sweet & salt combo)
1 14-oz. can sweetened condensed coconut milk- see below- or condensed milk
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the butter or vegan buttery spread in a 9x13-inch baking pan and set it in the oven until the butter is melted. Tilt the pan to coat the bottom evenly.
Sprinkle the gluten-free cookie crumbs in the prepared pan and toss them to coat; press them into a layer.
Pour the condensed coconut milk/dairy milk in the pan.
Add a layer of chocolate chips, then a layer of coconut, then almonds. Using the back of a spatula, press the mixture firmly into the pan. I usually sprinkle a few extra chips on the top, and gently press them in.
Bake at 350ºF for about 20 to 25 minutes, until set.
Cool completely on a wire rack before cutting.
Makes 24 bars.
Karina's Notes:
Try ginger snaps or lemon cookies for a change of pace.

CLEVELAND -- The Indians added to their depth chart on Wednesday, signing pitcher Joe Martinez and catcher Brian Jeroloman to Minor League contracts. Both players were extended invitations to attend Spring Training with the big league club.
Given the composition of Cleveland's roster, both Martinez and Jeroloman project as Minor League depth, with both players likely ticketed for Triple-A Columbus. Martinez boasts a limited amount of big league experience and Jeroloman has spent a large portion of his professional career in the upper tier of the Minors.
The 29-year-old Martinez returns for his second stint in the Tribe's system. He also spent the 2011 season with Columbus and earned postseason Most Valuable Players honors during the Clippers' run to the Triple-A championship that season.
Dating back to 2009, Martinez has gone 3-3 with a 6.22 ERA in 19 big league games between brief tours with the Giants (2009-10), Pirates ('11) and D-backs ('12). Last year, the right-hander appeared in one game for Arizona, and also went 10-11 with a 5.39 ERA over 27 starts for Triple-A Reno (Arizona), compiling 99 strikeouts against 49 walks in 155 1/3 innings.
In 2011 with Columbus, Martinez went 8-9 with a 4.04 ERA in 35 appearances, including 16 starts.
Jeroloman, 27, has appeared in 559 games over seven seasons -- all spent within Toronto's Minor League system. The right-handed hitter has hit .240 with a .371 on-base percentage and a .335 slugging percentage over his professional career. Jeroloman is most lauded for his on-base ability and defensive skills behind the plate.
Jeroloman threw out 44 percent (18-of-41) of would-be basestealers in 2012 and was named the collegiate Defensive Player of the Year by Louisville Slugger in 2006, when he was with University of Florida.
Last season, Jeroloman hit just .183 in 43 games across three levels (Gulf Coast League Blue Jays, Class A Dunedin and Double-A New Hampshire), but he was limited by a right knee injury. In August 2011, the catcher was promoted to the Blue Jays, but he spent his 37 days in the Majors without appearing in a game due to a sprained right wrist.
