- Johnson's stature growing among closers
- All-Star ballot unveiled; online voting Friday
- Roberts to join Orioles for trip to Anaheim
CHICAGO -- Orioles starter Tsuyoshi Wada struggled in his first rehab start, lasting 2 2/3 innings in Thursday afternoon's outing for Triple-A Norfolk, making it a strong possibility that he will get at least one more rehab start.
Wada, who started the season on the disabled list with left elbow discomfort, made two appearances in extended Spring Training before traveling to Gwinnett, Ga., for what the Orioles hoped to be a 100-pitch outing with Triple-A Norfolk. But Wada allowed three runs in the first inning and following a 1-2-3 second, couldn't make it out of the third, giving up six runs on six hits and four walks.
Wada also struck out one in the start, which was attended by executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette, who signed the 31-year-old lefty to a two-year guaranteed deal out of Japan this winter.
"We were talking to his interpreter and agent, and they are aware that he wasn't ready physically [to end spring] and everybody wants him to start right," manager Buck Showalter said. "If [his time in the Minors on rehab] has to be extended, I think we're comfortable doing that."
Johnson's stature growing among closers
CHICAGO -- Closer Jim Johnson might not be a marquee name, but the right-hander is well known around the American League, a reputation that stands to grow in his first full season as the Orioles' ninth-inning man.
"He's got great stuff," White Sox veteran Paul Konerko said after Johnson notched his fifth save of the season against Chicago on Tuesday night. "Probably some of the most underrated stuff if you ask any hitter in the league. There are a lot of guys you want to face before him. He has a big heavy sinker and a big curveball. You don't usually see those two things together.
"We've known about him. Everybody in the game knows, but my guess is he'll have a good year and you'll hear his name more."
Orioles third-base coach DeMarlo Hale, who spent six seasons in Boston prior to joining Baltimore this season, said Johnson's pitchability is what made him a guy the Red Sox had difficulty facing, with the right-hander's multiple weapons a topic of series meetings.
"I think he's respected among the people you compete with," Hale said of Johnson, who pitched to a 2.22 ERA in his final 56 games last year. "How the media perceives it, he's not the flavor and the name, but he's a guy at the back end of the bullpen that has got stuff to get you out. It's sinking, he's got a power fastball, breaking ball, and he pitches well.
"Hitters know about Johnson; It isn't just the Red Sox."
Slowed with a back injury this spring, Johnson got progressively better as Spring Training moved along and the 28-year-old, who maintained throughout camp he would be ready for the season, has gone 6-for-6 in save opportunities to start the season, extending his streak from last year to 14 straight.It is a far cry from Johnson's performance in the ninth inning in 2009, when he went 10-for-16 in save opportunities, his ERA jumping from 2.55 in the eighth to 6.11 in the ninth. The Orioles signed Michael Gonzalez to a two-year deal that offseason and after Kevin Gregg struggled in his first season closing in Baltimore, Johnson was officially named closer to start the season.
"[Being a] little bit wiser helps," Johnson said when asked what has changed for him since '09. "Little bit of luck never hurts, either. Not anything that's so different, but I think the experience goes a long way. Failure, you learn through failure, better than you do success.
"Also I have good support around me, good pitching coach, good catcher, other pitchers, defense behind me, all that plays a factor into it as well."
The second-longest tenured Oriole -- behind Nick Markakis -- Johnson was selected by the Orioles in the fifth round of the 2001 First-Year Player Draft and made his Major League debut with one start in 2006. He made his first Opening Day roster in 2009 and after missing most of 2010 with injury, Johnson became the Orioles' most dependable reliever last season. He set career highs in games (69), wins (6), innings pitched (91) and strikeouts (58) and ranked among the AL leaders in relief innings, wins and ground-ball percentage.
"If I do what I feel like I'm supposed to be doing, I don't care if anybody really pays too much attention," Johnson said of his under-the-radar status. "You can get lost here, I think, but that doesn't really make too much of a difference to me."
All-Star ballot unveiled; online voting Friday
CHICAGO -- Help reward the Orioles who are off to a hot start this season by sending them to the 2012 All-Star Game, with online voting set to start on Friday and Adam Jones, Matt Wieters, J.J. Hardy, Nolan Reimold, Robert Andino, Mark Reynolds, Wilson Betemit, Nick Markakis and Chris Davis on the ballot.
Wieters was last year's O's rep, while Jones was an All-Star in 2009 and Hardy went in '07 as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers.
Beginning Friday, fans can cast their votes for starters up to 25 times at MLB.com and all 30 club sites -- online or via your mobile device -- using the 2012 All-Star Game MLB.com Ballot until Thursday, June 28, at 11:59 p.m. ET.Fans can also once again participate in the State Farm Home Run Derby Fan Poll. Fans will have the opportunity to select three players in each league who they would most like to see participate in the State Farm Home Run Derby. The 2012 State Farm Home Run Derby -- part of Gatorade All-Star Workout Day -- will be broadcast live on ESPN, ESPN HD, ESPN Deportes and ESPN Radio in the United States beginning at 8 p.m. ET on Monday, July 9.
Roberts to join Orioles for trip to Anaheim
CHICAGO -- Infielder Brian Roberts will be accompanying the Orioles to Anaheim, a positive sign given that the initial plan was for Roberts, who is on the disabled list with a concussion, to return home after the first two legs of the team's three-city road trip.
"I know he was trying to make up his mind [on Wednesday]," manager Buck Showalter said of Roberts, who had to be cleared by his doctors as well. "That's good, nothing bad there."
Roberts did some pregame workouts with special assistant Brady Anderson and has been arriving early to the ballpark to get his work in and not disrupt the 25 guys getting ready for the game. Showalter has said that the team will always make room for Roberts to get his work done, with hitting coach Jim Presley spending time with Roberts early Wednesday afternoon.
Thursday's news that Roberts will travel to Anaheim furthers the growing optimism around that the second baseman, who hasn't played in a Major League game since May, will return at some point this season. Roberts has no timetable, but he is hitting and fielding with the next big step forward to send him out to get some at-bats for a Minor League affiliate.

Lightweight, affordable & great sound quality. Comfortable even after 4-5 hours of constant use.
by d0nbennett on April 13, 2005
Pros: Complete freedom with sound that rivals my aging $300 AT Electrostatics! While not the absolute BEST sound, a great compromise (esp 4 freedom like @ the PC). Found my "refurbished" set for <$60!
Cons: Headband simply won't get tighter. . .On the other hand, unless doing jumping jacks, it's immaterial. . .Probably also what makes them feel so good!

Summary: Just the most comfortable phones I've ever worn. Combination of light weight, no cord and on-the-ear design. Great range [one end of the house to the other] with no degradation in their clean sound. With most phones, pressing the earcups harder to your head is the only way to produce satisfying bass. Not so here. One of the few I've even encountered where doing so yields no improvement. If you can find them refurbished for <$70, don't be scared off. My were perfect in every way. [Most "refurbished" have nothing wrong with them anyway, they are simply overstocks and returns.]

Summary: Excellent sound quality and a very stylish charging cradle. My only gripe is the slight hissing noise during quiet moments but I listen to my pumping music loud anyway so hardly notice it. Also found it a bit tight around the head but maybe that's because I have a big head! Other than that, well worth the money.

Summary: Hands down, you will not be dissapointed by these headphones. They are a bit big, but very comfortable. The weight for its size is relatively light in comparison to other wireless headphones that I tried. The cnet review says that the volume and frequency dials are too close together, but I beg to differ. The dials are next to each other, but you can clearly distinguish one from the other and not accidentally adjust the wrong dial.
Once you have the right frequency set, you're good to go and the sound is crystal clear. Walking around though, you might hit some hisses and cuts in the sound. I was able to walk around my backyard (up to 100 feet away from the base) and still listen to my music. That is an awesome experience to say the least!
The rechargable base is great too. Hanging the headphones on the base is so simple, like hanging your jacket on a hook. This makes the headphones so useful and easy to use. Installation of the cords was simple also. All you have to do is plug the power into the wall and conncect the stereo line to some rca jacks - that simple!
The only thing keeping this from a 10 rating is the hiss and I wish that the ear cups would have been enclosed so that the sound stays isolated around your ears. At high volumes, a person next to you can hear what you're listening to.

Good Value. RS 120 confused with IS 380 by CNET
Pros: Just bought them. Appears to be a good value for the price. The higher models use a propietary rechargable battery. These use normal rechargable AAA batteries, which I view as a plus.
Cons: CNET first look by Steve partially erroneous:FM modulation NOT Infrared. (The IS 380 are infrared.)CNET effort appreciated. Looking forward to full review. BTW, not necessarily a con however, despite the marketing, they are not made in Germany but rather

Summary: This is a great product for those looking to get rid of wires and be able to roam freely in the house, but the occassional hiss or static can be annoying to true audiophiles. Fortunately, I'm not one; I was just looking to get rid of wires and be able to move around in my office with reasonable sound. To my delight, it does just that plus allow me to get chores done around the house with only a minimal loss in sound quality the further I get away from the base. Recommend looking for this product on eBay for better prices (as I did.) The stand is unwieldy but I also have very limited desk space so it's probably ok otherwise. Bulky headpiece with old-fashioned switches is a disadvantage.
Bottomline: Good product for less discriminating listeners.

Outrageous Sound!
Pros: Light-weight. You'll forget that you're wearing them. Sound comes from all over, and not one sound on your TV is unheard! Goes to every room with great sound!
Cons: I would like to purchase another base for other TV instead of another entire unit, but can't find the base alone.

TUCSON, Ariz. -- One of three suspects accused of shooting at a Tucson officer last August has been convicted in the case.
Authorities said 20-year-old Sergio Rojo-Valenzuela was found guilty Tuesday of attempted first-degree murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Police said the shooting occurred Aug. 12 as officers were trying to arrest three armed men. The suspects had been accused of brandishing weapons and pointing them at people at a car wash.
A car chase ensued and police said one of the officers was fired on but escaped injury. Rojo-Valenzuela was arrested in September.
His sentencing date hasn't been set yet. The other two suspects are awaiting trial.

Unions welcome withdrawal from NHS regional pay
Unions who represent staff working at Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust have welcomed the news that the trust board have decided to withdraw from the controversial regional pay cartel.
– Dorothy Fogg, Chair of the Health Officers Forum
This is a very positive move by Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust.
Jac Kelly, Chief Executive, Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust, has issued a strong statement to staff assuring them that whatever the future of the pay cartel that the trust will no longer be a part of it.
We believe that this will be welcomed by staff as it is a first step to re-building trust and confidence.
Joint unions welcome the opportunity this now poses to return to open and transparent partnership working. This can only be good for patient care.
There were widespread protests after 20 health trusts in the region formed a consortium to look at ways of setting local terms in an effort to reduce the wage billl.
Unions have now agreed to some changes, and the consortium says it will abide by national agreements for the time being.

6 Easy Steps To Helping Clients Succeed
Success coach Anthony Robbins often tells the story about a major shopping center that experienced a failure in their elevators. It was costing them thousands of dollars a minute in lost sales. The mall manager was panicking. She had called several service companies, but none of them seemed to be able to fix the problem. Finally, she called someone who was able to fix the problem in 60 seconds flat by simply pressing a few buttons . Then he invoiced her a whopping $10,000 fee for services rendered."
The outraged mall manager asked the service man How can you charge $10,000 for pushing a couple of buttons and one minutes work? The service man replied by re-writing the invoice to say service charge for pressing buttons, $1. Investment for knowing which buttons to press; $9,999. Your clients can purchase quantifiable spots, space, reach and frequency from an ever growing list of cheaper suppliers today. Its the knowledge you bring to the table in your total value bundle that will separate you from your low-price competitors. One of the ways to improve and demonstrate your knowledge for your key accounts and key prospects, is to conduct a marketing audit for them.
The simplest and easiest way to gain credibility for your audit is to examine all of your prospects advertising from their web site to their yellow pages and from their radio script to their newspaper ad or a brochure for inconsistencies. Very often youll quickly reveal the advertiser is using different slogans in different media, or does not use slogans consistently at all. This simple exercise will open the door for you to conduct a more in-depth audit, increasing your knowledge and demonstrating your expertise.
1. Customer Perception Audits
Design and post a survey on your website to measure share of mind levels and customer perceptions of your client. If you uncover a poor perception of a particular aspect of their business discuss whether that perception is a reality or not. If it is reality, encourage the advertiser to make the necessary changes immediately. If the public perception is not in line with reality, develop an advertising and communications plan to change that perception.
2. Mystery Shopper Reports
Construct a list of the ten things your client wants their customers to experience when they do business with them.(i.e.; they might choose staff greeting, product knowledge, cleanliness of store, prompt telephone pick-up etc.) Your mystery shopper then reports how each experience compares to the business owners expectations .Try having a couple of your fellow account executives be the mystery shoppers on an account, then return the favor by serving as the mystery shopper on their accounts.
3. Competitor Audits
Produce a short written overview of your clients competitors marketing. Visit competitors locations, check out their websites and compare their ads to your clients. Look for weaknesses you can exploit, or a competitive strength you can build upon.
4. Supplier Audits and Interviews
Suppliers can make excellent marketing allies and can tell you about successful marketing efforts in other markets they serve. Theyll often have vendor funds above and beyond co-op that they can contribute to your campaign.
5. Communications Audits.
Check out your clients blogs, phone their company with an inquiry, and email a question to them. Report how quickly and accurately their people handle these communications and help them find ways to continually improve every customer touch point.
6. Internal SWOT Analysis
Offer to chair or facilitate a staff SWOT (strengths, weaknesses and opportunities) Analysis for the advertiser. Your facilitation will not only be sincerely appreciated, it will result in a more candid and objective overview than one hosted by the client. If your audit uncovers some unpleasant surprises, have the confidence to present those shortfalls, but do so very tactfully. Make certain that any criticisms are not expressed as your personal criticisms or opinions, but rather, they are presented as the finding of your research and audit.
When you build and establish your knowledge as the go-to expert to help with your clients marketing and planning processes, your stations will play a major role in their advertising campaigns. Your advertisers can buy spots or space from any commodity sales person. Its the knowledge you bring to the party to increase their return on investment that makes what you sell worth more than just your simple spot rates. The knowledge you gain from your marketing audit will help you push the right buttons, and justify stronger spot rates.

Dream Big, READ!Posted by staff in In the Children's Room, Uncategorized, tags: In the Children's Room
This summer's theme, "Dream Big, READ!," will explore all things nocturnal – the nighttime sky and its constellations, dreamers, and nocturnal animals. This year's Children's Summer Reading Club begins June 4th and lasts until August 3rd.
Artwork for this year was created by Brian Lies. His fans will remember his bat books; "Bats at the Beach," "Bats at the Library," and "Bats at the Ballgame." He has also illustrated other authors' books including the Flatfoot Fox books and Finklehopper Frog.
The summer program is open to children from toddlers to those leaving sixth grade. Incentives and activities will make this an inspiring nine weeks for the whole family.
All craft activities will have a nighttime flair. Each arts & crafts program will be divided into two activities – one for younger children and one for older elementary-aged children.
Special programs include the annual pet show on July 7th and a visit with owls and other birds from Tamarack Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center on July 24th.
To participate, a child must be a member of one of Crawford County's libraries. Preschoolers and summer visitors will receive a summer card. A special reading sky chart will be issued to record each reader's and listener's progress through summer reading pleasure and prizes.
For every library book read, children will get a stamp on their sky chart. Preschoolers must listen to two books to get a stamp. For every four stamps, a prize may be selected from the display case. When 12 stamps have been collected, participants qualify for two chances to win one of the Grand Prizes. The drawing for these prizes will be during our Summer Reading Club Party scheduled at 10 a.m., August 4th.

Use an invisible ink to leave a message. Reveal the message by touching a flame to the edge of the writing, causing it to burn away in smoldering flame. The paper is left untouched, except for the fire writing.
Fire Writing Materials
- potassium nitrate (available in stores or make it)
- water
- paper (heavy, relatively absorbent paper works best, like parchment paper)
Prepare Your Message
- Mix potassium nitrate into a very small amount of warm water to make a saturated potassium nitrate solution. It is fine if there is undissolved potassium nitrate.
- Dip a paintbrush, cotton swab, toothpick, fingernail, etc. into the solution and use it to write a message. You want to start the message or design at the edge of the paper. The lines of the message must be continuous since the fire will travel from the edge of the paper along the writing. You may wish to re-trace the message to make sure there is potassium nitrate on all parts of it.
- Allow the paper to dry completely. Your message will be invisible, so I hope you know where it started!
- Touch the edge of the paper, where the invisible message started, with the tip of a lit cigarette or with the flame of a lighter. The message will ignite and burn in smoldering fire until it is completely revealed. If you were careful only to light the edge of the message, the rest of the paper will remain intact.

River Glen has been a hot bed for crime in recent years. But the cloud of crime may be lifting and residents are giving credit to one woman who's using a bible, scripture and sermons as her weapons of choice. Dee Griffin has the story.
Known as the "church lady".. most of the residents in River Glen apartments don't know her real name. But they are feeling the affects of Pastor Angela Harden. She has taken her ministry from the pulpit to the pavement of one of Augusta's most troubled areas. Pastor Angela Harden leads the Church Without Walls. She explains, "we do it under the heavens outside of the building. We're doing what God has commanded us to do as the church. Go yea therefore."
She's doing it in an area that saw significant crime last year. Flashing blue lights and crime tape became common sights in River Glen as gun shots killed nearly half a dozen people in the complex during 2012 alone. Now, bullet holes are common reminders of the crime that plagued a place hundreds call home. LaShannon Cunningham has lived in River Glen for six years. She says, "we had a memorial on the ground over in the corner and before we could even get that one up there was a murder in the front. That was within a week's span."
Even Pastor Harden's family has been touched by crime here. Pastor Harden says, "three years ago my nephew was shot and killed out here. So I'm very passionate about River Glen."
So much so, she holds worship service on this open space in the complex every Wednesday night. Her ministry is just one weapon in the complex's fight to end crime. Management has also cut tree limbs and installed better lighting to reveal crimes that often hide in darkness. The complex has also given the ministry an apartment to hold service in case it rains. "When you have people in management that can help and they want to see a difference and they invest in making that difference, it does that, it makes a difference," she adds.
Step by step, Pastor Harden and her ministry are using their faith to shoot down crime and build up a safe community one person at a time. "We're doing what God has called us to do. Not only has he called us but he has equip us and he has given us a heart for the people," says Pastor Harden.
Each Sunday, Pastor Sam Davis and Beulah Grove Baptist send a van to pick up River Glen residents and take them to church. Also, Pastor Harden has a mentoring group at River Glen. All of these components have been credited with the decrease in crime there.

I saw them live with Static-X and Powerman5K back when they put their first disc out. They were incredible live. I wasn't digging the Marilyn Manson outfits, but the music was solid. I bought all of the albums in between the first and No Regrets, and I wouldn't even spend time writing a review for those albums… utterly forgettable stuff. This album, to me, represents a huge change in production quality and musicality. The guitar riffs are not as simple as you would expect having listened to previous Dope albums. Without knowing what is going on in the band, whether there was a guitarist line changeup or an attitude adjustment, I can still say that the guitar playing is eons better than what I would have expected from Dope. Riffage is unforgettable and the vocals lock in tight with the instruments. If you are a metal fan, I can't see how you would dislike this record. If I had to recommend a single song for downloading, I would say "No Regrets" is my fav track.
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
Tons of great heavy metal bands have realesed CDs this year but…
…No Regrets is the only CD released in 2009 that has not only met my expectations but exceeded them as well. Ive listened to Dope since their first CD (which is perhabs their best CD next to this) and I have to say I wasnt expecting a CD of this magnitude.
The music is harder, heavier, and faster while still providing an extraordinary amount of variety. No Regrets with getting this CD!
Since I've listened to this album for the first time, I've cranked it countless times. With "No Regrets", Dope step it up in a few areas. Firstly is in the musicianship; the songs are more technical and complex than before, but they still contain that signature Dope swagger and attitude to them. In addition, lots of guitar solos and sick drum fills to keep the listener paying attention.
The songwriting also improves the songs even more, on such great tracks as "No Regrets", "My Funeral" and "Nothing For Me Here". The way the songs build up and have twists and turns, even in the three minutes that they run, make them interesting and show that Dope has matured as songwriters. This is a definite plus.
Thirdly and probably most obviously is that there's a lot of variety on this album. We have fast-paced, energetic numbers such as the rebellious "6-6-Sick", the moshpit-ready "Violence", the addictive riff-rocker "Nothing For Me Here" and the seductive strutter "Addiction". We also have slower, darker songs such as the stomping "Dirty World" and the poetic, almost ballad-styled "My Funeral". There are also some nice surprises, such as a cover of Billy Idol's "Rebel Yell". This one is played in B-flat minor, as opposed to the original being played in B-minor. This makes for a fresh spin to the song while still maintaining the energy and sexiness of it. There's also the hilarious "I Don't Give A…", which is one of my new favorites off the album.
Overall, this is an all-around excellent album full of great hooks, riffs, solos, and just about anything you can think of. Dope is really able to combine a rock-star attitude, quality musicianship, seductive sleaze and moshing, headbanging attitude into one great bundle. Whether you're a fan of Dope or new to the band, this will be an addictive album, so be sure to get it soon! Thanks for the time, and peace.
Dope is one of the remnants of the nu-metal apocalyptic ruins, managing to survive with their sleaze-rock swagger/industrial thunderstorm hybrid and an overdose of attitude, and that never goes out of style. Their sonic dream was refined with "American Apathy" but that release had too many throwaway tracks amongst the standouts. With "No Regrets," the sound and fury is catastrophic and there is not a trace of filler to be found.
This is an angry album, at times approaching the rabid foam-flecked savagery of Lamb of God, and sometimes it's f&%$ you punk ala SUM 41. Plenty of sex, booze, and profanity- classic Dope. But the technical aspects are also amped up. The trademark descending/ascending scales and thrashy/double-bass onslaught drum style are still getting heavy use, as are synthesized vocal and instrumental effects, but there are plenty of riffs, chops, and solos that would raise eyebrows even if found on today's neo-shredding metal champion's albums. There is a solo at the end of "My Funeral" that is brief but very very sweet.
"No Regrets" is the realization of the sound Dope has always strived for. There isn't any nu-metal left, all that remains is straight DOPE.
No Regrets, Dope's fifth studio release, marks a decade since the band released their debut, Felons & Revolutionaries. They're one of the few bands classified as "nu metal" that I've been proud to diligently follow all these years. While most bands of the genre are popular, mainstream, and full of teenage angst, Dope really aren't any of these things. It's a shame they aren't as popular as they could be, for they haven't strayed from the sound which makes them who they are… unlike a lot of other artists who have altered their's in the same ten-year span. If you don't want changes from album to album, Dope are your men.
Disclaimer: No Regrets may contradict aforementioned statement as it's more intense than ever before.
I remember anxiously awaiting the release of this album, only to be frustrated with delay. Any potential release date may have strictly been rumored, but held my breath I did. Having a taste of the "Violence" snippet long ago had me itching for more. Now several months later, No Regrets has been unleashed. Excited bias aside, this is the most intensity I've heard from the Chicago rockers. If they're looking for their dark side, they've certainly found it, and were actually on the right track with their last album, American Apathy. Upon its release four years ago, I wondered if the darkness and energy would heighten and carry over to the next album (and would later wonder if there would even be another), and here we are.
The first single is "Addiction" which features a guitar solo from legendary shredder Zakk Wylde. Dope and Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society performed together some time ago, so that likely led to the camaraderie. It's actually a fairly cookie-cutter song for the band's standards, but with Wylde's solo in the mix the song is instantly better. "No Regrets" and "Violence" are more of the same – they exemplify the sound you'd expect. For a darker change of pace, "My Funeral" and "Dirty World" are mirthless about being alone, fading to black, addiction, and aren't that full of adrenaline.
At an even more extreme change of pace, songs like "6 6 Sick," "We Are," and "Scorn" take the album up a notch with squealing guitars, pounding rhythm, and Edsel Dope's relentless and vigorous vocals. This all comes as a welcomed gesture for those wanting Dope to get out of the "nu metal" rut and into the darker world of metal. Overall, No Regrets is like that unrestrained, vicious Doberman bearing its teeth. Don't be afraid now.

Brooklyn Decker attended Spike TV's 2011 Video Game Awards, which were held at Sony Studios in LA this weekend.
The blonde beauty wore a black Nha Khanh dress from the Black Velvet collection.
She opted to wear her mini skater black lace dress with a nude underlay without the black ribbon as worn by the model.
Once again, she adds a pop of colour to her look via yellow Jimmy Choo pointed pumps and bright pink fuchsia lips.
With so much colour and detail, the actress just opted for a beautiful tousled updo, a gold Jimmy Choo 'Cameo' box clutch and House of Lavande earrings to complete her look.

No. 23 Fresno State held off a charging Utah State 24-17 to win the 2013 Mountain West title game, and this is the Bulldogs first outright conference title since 1991. Offense is normally the key for Fresno State but in Saturday night's game it was the defense that made plays, plus there were plenty of mistakes in this game.
The game started off with some great defense which saw Fresno State score just three points and Derek Carr was harassed all quarter long with the downfield passing game non-existent due to the Utah State pressure. Fresno State's defense was not to be overlooked either as they held Darell Garretson in check by being sacked three times in the first quarter, and nine times overall.
After that slow start, the Fresno State offense rattled of 14 straight points in the second quarter as offensive coordinator David Schramm changed the play calling and started to stretch the field from sideline-to-sideline with quick wide receiver passes to Isaiah Burse. That worked as the offense started clicking with those two second quarter touchdowns. The first was a 2-yard pass to an extremely wide open tight end Marcel Jensen, and the second was a 9-yard quick pass to Burse who dove to cross the plane.
Fresno State looked to roll Utah State as they were marching toward a 24-0 lead at the half, but an option play was called and Utah State's Jake Doughty picked up a fumble to return it 87-yards to make it a 17-7 game.
The momentum was on Utah State's side and it continued in the second half as the Aggies defense revved up again as Brian Suite picked off Carr on their first two possessions in the second half. However, Utah State could not take advantage and score any points.
The third possession in the second half is where Fresno State drove down the field and Devante Adams capped off the drive with a 3-yard touchdown reception. That would give Fresno State a 24-7 lead and it looked like the Bulldogs were going to roll, but that score would be the last points that the Bulldogs would score.
Utah State started to drive down the field late in the third quarter but starting quarterback Garretson was hit hard when sacked by Dalen Jones. That hit gave Garretson a concussion and he did not return in that game. In came Craig Harrison and he just handed the ball off on his first play and Bruce Natson scored from 10 yards out to make it a 24-14 game.
The Aggies then elected to do a pooch onside kick that actually worked. On the very first play of scrimmage Harrison threw a deep ball but there was pass interference which immediately put the Aggies in field goal range, and they ended up kicking the ball to make it a 24-17 game with over 10 minutes left in the quarter to make this a game.
Fresno State went on a prolonged drive that seemed to end the game, but the Utah State defense forced the Bulldogs into a tough spot with a 4th-and-2 that would have been a 46-yard field goal attempt. Up seven points, instead of kicking the field goal, or even trying a pooch kick, Fresno State was in shotgun and handed the ball off to Josh Quezada who was stuffed. That was a very interesting play call for Fresno State, and that was nearly universal.
Utah State had a chance to tie the game but they went on a quick three-and-out, but Fresno State gave the ball back just as quickly to give the Aggies one last final chance. The Aggies ended up coming up short when Harrison threw his only interception of the game when Dalen Jones picked him off to seal the win for Fresno State.
While the defenses showed up for a big game in this low scoring affair, but Carr still complete 36 of 53 passes for 404 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions. Burse caught 17 receptions for 132 yards, and Adams caught another nine for 168 yards and a touchdown.
- Mountain West title game halftime score update: Fresno State in control over Utah State
- North Dakota State's Craig Bohl to be named Wyoming coach, per report
- Wyoming to have press conference Sunday night, possibly name head coach
- Northern Illinois losing MAC title game could help MWC bowl chances

Traffic Control Permit Process
When construction interrupts the normal function of a roadway, temporary traffic control is necessary to avoid confusion and to ensure the smooth passage of traffic. It is the responsibility of those performing work on or adjacent to a public road in the unincorporated area of the County to install and maintain appropriate traffic control in accordance with an approved traffic control plan. An approved traffic control plan is necessary to provide the motoring public safe passage through the construction zone, as well as to safeguard construction workers.
A traffic control permit is necessary for any work on a County-maintained roadway or in the County right-of-way, contact person: Yosmia Johnson at (858) 694-3863.

CATEGORIES Movies, News/Reactions, HorrorBy Monika Bartyzel
In May we got the creepiest Mother's Day news ever -- Darren Lynn Bousman was prepping a remake of Charles Kaufman's Mother's Day -- a film where a few boys rape and murder some girls to please their sadistic mother. It was just the sort of thing for the mom who already has enough flowers. But now the flick's got a more socially palatable plot, and our favorite evil caregiver. The Hollywood Reporter posts that Rebecca De Mornay has signed on to play Mom.
This incarnation zeroes in on a "wicked family" who decides to return to the house they grew up in and "terrorize the new owners and their guests." But it won't just be about the grown-up kids tapping into their murderous tendencies. De Mornay comes in as "Mother," who "will go to any length to protect her children." Bring on the De Mornay evil! If intent means anything for the final product, her involvement should be viciously sweet. Bousman says: "Every time you look at (Rebecca), she is on fire and to take her to this level, which is like her role in Hand That Rocks the Cradle times a thousand, is exciting. She is not some Freddy Krueger or Jason, so it was important for me to get a real actress."
De Mornay has had some horror fare since her classic stint as Mrs. Mott/Peyton Flanders, but nothing has rang as sweetly as Cradle. Would anyone have imagined that a Troma remake would possibly bring her back to that chill-worthy world? Production begins this month in Winnipeg with a cast that includes Jaime King, Shawn Ashmore, Briana Evigan, Alexa Vega, Matt O'Leary and Deborah Ann Woll. Are you ready for De Mornay's return to caretaker creeps?

(WMC-TV) - Shelby County Schools leaders say they will do whatever they have to do in order to keep their schools clean because the health and safety of their students is top priority.
They say their message is clear: Dirty schools are not acceptable.
GCA Services is the company that signed a $22 million contract to keep the schools clean. Now, Shelby County Schools says GCA needs to clean up its act.
"We've heard from our constituents, our principals, our teachers, our students, and our community that basically said they're not happy with the level of service with GCA right now," said SCS Chief of Staff Reginald Porter, Jr.
Porter says, at this point, school administration is only reviewing GCA's one year contract with the school system.
The review comes after school board members heard from virtually every school in the district about uncleanliness inside the schools.
"The contract we approved had certain benchmarks for performance that GCA had to meet," added Shelby County Schools Board Vice-Chair Chris Caldwell.
GCA tells Action News 5 that it is responding earnestly to feedback from Shelby County Schools.
The company says its management team is conducting thorough inspections of each school building to ensure that all facilities meet or exceed Shelby County Schools' expectations.
School leaders say it may be too little, too late.
"Right now, we are not happy and we are looking at options," added Porter.
The contract with GCA is up next June.
Shelby County Schools can terminate its contract with the company by giving a 30-day notice.
Here is GCA's entire response to Action News 5 about the issue:
"GCA Education Services is responding earnestly to feedback from the Shelby County Schools administration, including principals. Our management team is currently conducting thorough inspections of each school building to ensure that all facilities meet or exceed Shelby County Schools' expectations."
Shelby County Schools Superintendent Dorsey Hopson is expected to report on some of the concerns during his report at Tuesday's school board meeting.

KINGSTON, N.Y. -- ĀResidents along the Washington Avenue corridor and other parts of Uptown Kingston are the latest to be given large blue recycling containers by the city.Ā
Some 3,000 of the bins were distributed in the latest round, which wrapped up on Friday
Michael Schupp, the city's public works superintendent, said the Uptown distribution means about three-quarters of city residents now have the containers. Among the recent recipients of the 64- and 96-gallon units, which are on wheels, were residents of Fair, Main and St. James streets, the Boulevard, Lucas Avenue and Millers Lane.
The containers can be filled with commingled recyclables, including paper, plastic, cardboard, metal and glass.Ā
They are part of a so-called "single-stream" recycling effort begun in March 2011 by then-Mayor James Sottile.Ā
Under the old system, paper and cardboard had to be separated from the other items.
The recyclables are collected every other week by one of two recently purchased city trucks that have mechanical arms. The move to mechanical pickups means less manpower is needed on collection trucks than before, freeing up some public works employees for other tasks.Ā
Also, all recyclables on a route now can be picked up by one truck, rather than two under the old system.
ĀSchupp said the move to single-stream recycling not only has eased and sped up the collection process but probably will reduce the per-ton fee Kingston pays the Ulster County Resource Recovery Agency to take the city's trash.Ā
The reason, he said, is Kingston residents will be less likely to mix their recyclables in with their regular garbage.
Also, Schupp said, because the new containers have lids, rain and snow won't get inside and increase the weight.
The distribution of the new containers started in the summer of 2011 in the city's Roosevelt Park neighborhood, off Albany Avenue, and the number given out has reached about 7,000, Schupp said.
Schupp has said the city is using a $273,000 grant from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority to pay for the containers and educate the community about their use.

The planning application will seek approval for the expansion of both the South and the North Stands.
In the event of planning permission being granted, it is the Club's current intention to first proceed with the development of the South Stand. However, the extension of the North Stand either at the same time or as a separate phase of work at a later time remains a possibility.
Phase 1: South Stand
The expanded stand would mean:
- A total of 6,750 additional seats with ticket prices to cater for all budgets
- The scope to relocate visiting supporters
- Up to 2,400 premium seats located in the southern end of the Colin Bell and East Stand Level 2 with an enhanced concourse and access to a private bar
- An extension of the Legends lounge hospitality facility from 230 to circa 500 places
Phase 2: North Stand
The expanded stand would mean:
- A total of 6,750 additional seats with ticket prices to cater for all budgets
- Up to a further 2,400 premium seats located in the northern end of the Colin Bell and East Stand Level 2 with an enhanced concourse and access to a private bar
Expanding the South Stand alone will increase matchday seating capacity to around 54,500.
If both the South and North Stands are expanded, matchday seating capacity would rise to around 61,000.
A study is also underway to establish the feasibility of bringing seats closer to the pitch, which could result in the inclusion of additional rows of seating .
Depending on the outcome of the feasibility study we may seek to include the additional rows of seating within our planning application . The impact of any additional seats closer to the pitch would likely be minimal given that they would be accommodated within the existing stadium footprint. Depending on the outcome of the feasibility study, any further work required to assess the impact, including how these could be accommodated within the transport strategy, would be submitted with the planning application
The final number of seats which we will apply for, and whether this will include any new seats closer to the pitch, will be confirmed within the planning application.

2007 vintage on tap at Kickbacks in Jax. Poured into a snifter. Golden body, very slight haze. Very little head with no retention and hardly any lacing. Aroma includes pineapple, tangerine, candi sugar, peach, caramel, and maybe a hint of brett. Taste also has a little brett, faint. Some sweetness in the form of tropical fruit and some coming from the residual sugars and from the aged flavor of the beer. Could be disappointing to someone looking to pucker up. Other than that, the beer is certainly interesting and quite tasty.

750ml into a snifter. The brew appears a clear orange with white cap that is quick to fade. Some spotty lace sticks to the wall of the glass and a swirl revives a finger back to the surface.
The smell is earthy with some fruity esters of funk and alcohol with earthy brett leather quality. Some oak and cheese is present. A nice mild aromatic mix of what you expect brett to smell like.
The taste is tart with fruity alcohol hints that blend into a bit of tropical rindy elements that is somewhat reminescent of hops but not really. Oak and earth strike the palate about mid way through with the finish being tropical and tart.
This is a light bodied brew with a moderate amount of carbonation. This was a very mild and easily approachable brew. I could have tanked the entire 750 myself but friends were around to share in the experience.

On tap tonight at the River Road Tavern Tap Takeover.
Came to my stool a fairly clear golden color without much of a head. The aroma is quite fruity and tart with lots of sour cherries apricots and lemons as a well as a hint of bready malt and a slightly earthy aroma. The flavor follows the aroma quite well. Tart fruit mixed with a bit of bread and caramel and a hint of funk. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation and a tart almost puckering mouthfeel. This is a very nice sour ale, I quite enjoyed it, its too bad its taken me this long to find it.

750ml bottle poured into a snifter. Shared with DonFrap.
A- Pours a translucent slightly reddish orange with not much head- maybe a quarter finger of white head that dissipates fairly fast and doesn't leave too much head.
S- Brett and grassy funk mixed with a little bit of vinegar acidity, and some alcohol. The sour funk brett smell is definitely the most predominant. Average aroma strength, not the best smelling sour I've had though- a little bit too much of a vinegar acidity.
T- Sour brett with some lemon, hay, grass, etc.. It has a nice sour brett flavor balanced with the rest of the flavors.
M- Decent carbonation, refreshing, easy to drink, fairly light, abv decently well hidden.
O- This was a decent sour. I feel like Smuttynose is really a hit or miss and I felt like this was one of their better beers that I've had. Nice level of brett funk that balanced well with the other flavors and went down very easily, just a little bit too much vinegar acidity. I would try this again, but definitely not go out of my way to obtain it.

Poured into a chalice. This one pours a clear orange color with a small cap of white head.
Brett right up front with a bit of a citrus background. Seems to have a bit of a tart character in the background. A little bit of citrus on the pallet with a bit a good brett overtone. A little tart in the finish.
The body is light with good carbonation. Overall this one is enjoyable for sure. Nice and light and easy to drink.

Poured into a chalice. The color is clear and golden. There is a fluffy off-white head.
The aroma has some apple and grape fruit notes with some tart lemon rind and even a dose of autumnal spice.
The taste is mixes sweet malt with some vanilla and caramel notes with a slightly tart vinegary finish. This is a well balanced taste.
This is medium bodied with a nice full effervescent mouthfeel. This has really nice components, but altogether it's not in the upper echelon. It is delicious in its own right.

Controlling AutoCAD selections with PICKSTYLE
When making entity selections in AutoCAD, sometimes the results can be unexpected. You may select a hatch object and move it its associative boundary stays put, or you may erase a line and other geometry disappears with it. Situations like this can be controlled by a system varible named PICKSTYLE.
PICKSTYLE controls two things, how associative hatches and their boundaries behave and how grouped objects behave. Let's take a look.
PICKSTYLE = 1. The green and red circles, together with the blue star are part of an AutoCAD Group. When I select the green circle, notice that Properties says all 16 entities are selected.
Below is the same green circle selected while PICKSTYLE = 0. Notice that Properties confirms only the single object selected. No change was made to the grouped objects, they are still a group.
With associative hatches, notice what happens when I pick the magenta hatch while PICKSTYLE = 2, both the hatch and the green boundary are selected.
Now I'll pick the same magenta hatch with PICKSTYLE = 0, only the hatch is selected.
Hopefully that helps explain the various PICKSTYLE settings. To recap, PICKSTYLE = 1 allows for group selection. PICKSTYLE = 2 allows for associative hatch selection. PICKSTYLE = 0 disables both. There is one more setting of PICKSTYLE = 3, which allows for both group and hatch selections. It is basically combining the setting of 1 and 2.
You can toggle group selection on and off from the keyboard with either Ctrl+Shift+A, or Ctrl+H. This shortcut will toggle PICKSTYLE between 0 and 1 or between 2 and 3, depending on the initial value. PICKSTYLE is saved in the registry, so it won't change from drawing to drawing unless you have some external program changing it.
One last note. Whenever you have more than one object selected such as the hatch and boundary above, you can use the drop down box in the properties dialog to filter your list down to one or more items as shown below.
Pickstyle variable
Edit your .pgp gile so that P = Pickstyle instead of Pan (who uses 'pan' any more now that we have the mouse wheel?).
I use it a lot to control group selection.

The month before each Content Marketing World event has always been an interesting time for me.
The first reason is because I stay in one place for a large chunk of time. That's a big deal for me, as throughout the fall, winter, and spring I'm almost always on the road, traveling to all parts of the world. Second, it's when I work on particular items for the show, like the Content Marketing Awards, the music sequencing, the video intros, or (most likely) keeping our exhibitors happy. And, last but not least, it's when I get more family time — more time to ponder what's truly important in life (and more time to question whether or not I'm doing this whole "parenting" thing right).
Long story short, I'm more sentimental during this time of the year. I'm less caught up in the day-to-day and more focused on the big picture.Continue Reading

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.
Psalms 127:3
Children are considered a blessing, especially in Israel and predominantly religious Jerusalem. Parents speak favorably about their offspring and on Shabbat we traditionally see fathers bless their children. Unfortunately many fathers are unable to fulfil their obligations.
The statistics on poverty in Israel speak volumes. There is an alarming rise in the number of children in the poverty figures in Israel. Particularly among religious families, which in turn makes Jerusalem the city with the highest number of children living under the poverty line.
Israel Today has been committed for many years to ensuring a quality of life for all Israeli children.
Together we will be able to step up to the plate and help poor children.
In a few short days, Jewish families will gather around the Passover Seder table with family, friends and neighbors.

Authorities say a mother concocted a frightening story in which she claimed masked men held her and her autistic daughter at gunpoint.According to police, 23-year-old Jordan Davis told investigators that four masked men broke into her home on Seabass Road in south DeKalb County.Davis told police that the men threw a cinder block threw her home's window and then pointed a gun at her head while a knife was held to her 6-year-old daughter's throat. She said the men ransacked the house and stole items including Christmas presents.DeKalb County Police Chief Cedric Alexander said that none of that story is true, the child was never harmed and the woman is going to face charges, including a charge of making a false report to police.Authorities believe Davis made the story up to solicit sympathy from the public.
