John Travolta set his boogie shoes strolling in Saturday Night Fever at Miami's The Omni 6. Angie Dickinson shared her shower with us as she Dressed to Kill at the Concord on Bird Road and 114th Avenue. The revelation, "Luke, I am your father," had you gripping your plush, gold seat at the Dadeland Twin movie theater as The Empire Strikes Back revealed its shocker.
Plus, who, among people of a certain age, didn't stand in line to see Jaws at Coral Gables' Miracle Theatre in the summer of 1975?
"Apparently the whole world saw Jaws there," recalls Rebecca Smith, head of Special Collections at History Miami. Yes, she saw Jaws at the Miracle, too.
As Hollywood celebrates the best of 2012 with Sunday's Oscars telecast, movies take center stage once again. In Miami-Dade, the best of Hollywood stood out in grand movie palaces, where red velvet curtains parted across wide screens, where marquees lit the night sky, and where crystal chandeliers hung like constellations above the balconies.
Hollywood premieres? We had them, too.
Press agent Charlie Cinnamon remembers the publicity stunts he'd conjure for the Lincoln Road movie theaters he represented on the mall, like the Lincoln, Carib and the Beach. He orchestrated the opening of Elizabeth Taylor's epic Cleopatra in 1963 at the Lincoln and the British comedy Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines two years later at the Carib, a theater whose facade above the marquee displayed a full-scale map of the Caribbean.
"I did the opening of Cleopatra and we had a parade down Washington Avenue with the Miami Beach High School. In those days we had big parades and the Lincoln was the theater," Cinnamon said from his office on Lincoln Road. "For Magnificent Men we had vintage cars and airmen and a parade. Fantastic openings. Hollywood openings right here in Miami. We haven't had that in years and it's so sad that we don't have that kind of premiere anymore where the whole community joined in to have big events and red carpet openings.''
The theaters got into the spirit during the Golden Age of Cinema. The Byron-Carlyle, on 71st Street in Miami Beach, for instance, had its ushers dress up like Dracula when the 1979 remake starring Frank Langella opened. Cobwebs and black velvet curtains lent an air of Transylvania to the theater, which has since become the home to the Miami Beach Stage Door theater company.
Perhaps the reason The Miracle, now home to the Actors' Playhouse, stands out for its screening of Jaws is because the theater decorated the lobby in the style of the seafaring movie — netting on the ceiling, nautical props along the walls. The only thing missing was "Bruce" the mechanical shark, but he revealed plenty of himself on the large screen inside.
"That was the whole point, that movie theater was always great to go to because they always fit the theme when you went there," said Eugene Flinn, the former mayor of Palmetto Bay. "It was a great theater to see things, too. So formal with everything. A throwback theater, even for our age group, and that's why I'm so thrilled it's been properly repurposed and it's a great place to go see plays. What a treasure," said Flinn, 50.
Most of these places are gone, but many of the buildings remain: The Olympia, which became the Gusman Center on Flagler; The Miracle, which is getting its marquee and box office restored; The Shores in Miami Shores, which hosts The Miami Theater Center and O Cinema's presentation of independent, foreign and art films; The Tower in Little Havana is run by Miami Dade College and Overtown's historic Lyric Theater, which showcases live performances in the restored venue.
According to Isador Cohen's Historical Sketches and Sidelights of Miami, Florida (1925), the first proper movie theater in Miami was Kelly's Theater in 1906, which sat on the south side of Flagler near the old Burdines. Kelly's gave way to the more palatial theaters with sloping floors, roomy seats and chandeliers. The 1950s and 1960s saw the birth of the Riviera in Coral Gables, Suniland in what is now Pinecrest and the popular Dadeland Mall theater.
"Those seats at Dadeland were so comfortable, and you could rock in them," recalls landscaper, musician and Miami-native Claude Roatta who, yes, saw Jaws at the Miracle.
By the late 1970s, however, the theaters began to split into double, triple and quadruple screens to compete with newly opened multiplexes, such as the Omni 6 in downtime Miami, which opened in 1977, or Movies at the Falls in 1980. The grander palaces could not compete. By the 1990s places like Suniland, Dadeland, the Omni, Riviera, the Plitt Gables on Coral Way, Loew's 167th Street Twin in North Miami Beach and others disappeared or found new uses.
But the love of film endured locally, even amid the changes.
"For serious movie folks, Miami was a paradise," said Donald Edward Chauncey, who served in the '80s and '90s as the film librarian for the Miami-Dade County Public Library System and started the Alliance for Media Arts, which ran the Alliance Cinema art house on Lincoln Road. "We were able to see most of the films that were playing and being discussed in America. It was an era so far removed from today that it seems almost primitive. Before the Internet, before DVDs, before VHS even, unless you were wealthy enough to have your own in-house theater, the only way anyone could see movies was at a theater. Miami had some serious and dedicated presenters, so we were the envy of the South."
Today, directors aren't as likely to film in massive widescreen because multiplex screens are smaller, aside from specialty IMAX theaters. For fans, movie theaters often aren't the first option, not when Netflix, tablets and smartphones have made movies portable.
And that's a loss, some say.
"Theaters and restaurants, where you develop a lot of strong memories, whether from dates or periods where you go, 'Hey! I saw that movie there!' evoke some strong memories," Flinn said. "And The Miracle is a theater where a lot of our parents even went to."

CATEGORIES Action, Drama, Scripts, War, CinematicalThere aren't a whole lot of WWI veterans left (I think there's less than a handful of Americans), which is a shame with Memorial Day coming up since many people aren't familiar with the significance of that Great War. It certainly hasn't helped that Hollywood -- the history textbook writer for many young Americans -- hasn't been interested in the first World War as a subject for a long time. The studios used to produce great WWI films like Wings, All Quiet on the Western Front and Sergeant York. Then WWII came along and became the more popular war, with its definite villain, Adolph Hitler. Meanwhile the best WWI movie we've gotten in awhile (from the U.S., anyway) is the terribly cartoon-like Flyboys, which actually had to be made independently.
There's hope on the horizon, though, as a new WWI epic is being written by Christopher McQuarrie. The screenwriter of The Usual Suspects and the upcoming WWII movie Valkyrie, McQuarrie is interested in making a film that not only depicts the Great War, but also explains it. His script, titled No Man's Land (not to be confused with the German WWI film Niemandsland or the recent foreign Oscar-winner No Man's Land) focuses on the stories of three soldiers who stand in to illustrate the reasons for their nation's involvement in the war. One is an American who fights first for the French Legion and then for the U.S.; one is a Brit who is wrongly accused of being a coward; and the third is a German trench dweller.
Of course, the movie will also be filled with grand fight sequences, including a staging of the tragic Battle of the Somme, in which 19,000 British soldiers died. McQuarrie will not just be using that event for spectacle, however; the battle will be a part of the writer's attempts to show the significance of new technology like machine guns and tanks, which completely changed the ways wars are fought. There is still no real Hollywood involvement with No Man's Land, which is being co-produced independently by Spitfire Pictures and 2929 Productions (Good Night, and Good Luck), but McQuarrie hopes the film will join the rank of All Quiet on the Western Front, as well as non-Hollywood classics The Paths of Glory and Gallipoli. Hey, if No Man's Land is even half as good as any of those films, I will be first in line.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg called composting the "final recycling frontier" and with that the NYC Organics Collection Program was born.
Good Day NY asked Ron Gonen, Deputy Commissioner of Recycling and Sustainability, to explain how composting works.
In high-rise buildings, every apartment gets one of these (a counter-top bin.) You can put your food waste into a container, when it gets full, you go to the room on your floor where your recycling goes and put the waste into a container. From there, it is taken to a compost facility," said Gonen.
"It can be turned into compost—an organic fertilizer—or it can go to an anaerobic digestor that can convert food waste into clear, renewable electricity," said Gonen.
New York City spends $100M exporting food waste to other states.
"We have an opportunity to save money and the environment."
The pilot program is in place in several buildings. It will be expanded to all five boroughs over the next two years.
"At that point, we'll do an analysis for the next phase of expansion," said Gonen.

Murua top, Lady Luck shorts by Alice McCall, Wego shoes
These Lady Luck shorts by Alice McCall are one of the most perfect items in my closet. The fit is awesome and the fabric is unexplainable! Hope I get to buy more items from them soon!
This Murua top is one of those pieces I could go to on a whim. It's white, it's boxy, it's unconventional. What more could you ask for, for a white tee?
Currently in Haneda airport, 20 days flew so fast! I'm not sure if I'm ready to zap back to reality but we are never ready anyway! I had the best time even if it's summer and raining because of my family. Sometimes I fell that I'm too strong. I'm independent. I live on my own. I have a career. I take control of my life. It's overwhelming, sometimes, to be thrown out of your comfort zone. But, it's for the best. I'm sure! I've never been so mature about my decisions in life. Cheers!
How was your summer break so far? I would love to know! I went to Universal Studios Japan twice, met up with friends in Osaka, hangout with my family at home and in Kobe. That's basically it but I feel so relaxed and energized now. I'm going to have interview on Friday and pull outs on Saturday until the 4th of September until I fly to the Philippines for Kawaii in Manila 2! I'm so excited to be busy!

State regulations require horses, mules and donkeys being transported interstate (from one state to another) must have a current Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (health certificate) and negative Coggin's test (EIA). This paperwork must accompany the animal into the State of Iowa. Please refer to Iowa Dept of Agriculture Admissions Regulations for more information.
For example, a person from Missouri who wishes to bring their horses, mules or donkeys into Iowa must provide a current Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (health paper) which lists the description of the animals, date of a negative Coggin's test (tested within the last twelve months), date of the test, the lab that performed the test and the accession number of the Coggin's test.
Persons transporting horses, mules or donkeys intrastate (within the same state) do not need to carry this paperwork.
Again, a person from out of state who wishes to bring their horses, mules or donkeys into Iowa must bring their paperwork, but a person from Iowa who is taking their horses to another part of Iowa does not need to bring their paperwork.
This applies to equestrian camping, day-use and trail riding in any Iowa State Parks, State Recreation Areas or State Forests.
The following parks have designated equestrian campgrounds:
Campground amenities and campsite features vary from park to park. The state park reservation system (http://iowastateparks.reserveamerica.com/ provides information on campsites and campground amenities available. Please review the information PRIOR to making a reservation. Fifty-percent of the equestrian campsites are available for reservations. The remaining 50% are available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Non-equestrian campers (campers without horses/mules) may camp in designated campgrounds but they must pay the equestrian fee that is charged in equestrian campgrounds.
Equestrian Trails
You will find a number of parks and forests suited to your needs, including some with equestrian campgrounds. See the trail mileage chart below to find parks and forests to explore.
Guide to State and County Managed Equestrian Trails
Equestrian Trail Closures
Please be aware that equestrian trails may be temporarily closed at any time when trail use or any natural event (such as rain, flooding, snow, thaws) creates conditions that will cause the trail(s) to degrade if further use is allowed. When flooding and consistent rainfall occur, trails could remain closed for an extended period of time until trail conditions improve. Equestrian trails are normally closed during the winter months.
Park staff will update their answering machines when equestrian trails are closed. It is advised to check the reservation website or call the park to check on equestrian trail closures before heading to the park.
NOTE: Brushy Creek State Recreation Area has nearly 15 miles of rocked all-weather trails which rarely close.
Equestrian Campsite Reservation Information
Because the campground does not close when equestrian trails are closed, the standard reservation cancellation and change policies apply. See the policies below.
EXCEPTION: If your reservation begins on the same day the trails are closed or the following day, you will be allowed to change the reservation (per the change policy below). This is an exception to the change policy. It was adopted because reservations in this situation are automatically subject to forfeiture of camping fees if the reservation cancelled. However, if you do not want to change the reservation and decide to go ahead and cancel the reservation, the cancellation policy applies, including forfeiture of fees. The exception applies only to equestrian campsites.
When park staff close equestrian trails, an e-mail regarding the closure is automatically sent to all customers/reservees (whose account has an active e-mail address) whose reservation is scheduled to begin that day or the following day. If the reservee/customer does not have an active e-mail address, park staff will attempt to contact you over the phone only once to let you know of the trail closure. The e-mail contains information about the change/cancellation policies and what to do. PLEASE NOTE: The e-mails and phone calls go ONLY to the reservee and not to the campsite occupants. Therefore, if you made a reservation for multiple sites, only you will get the notification and you will need to contact the occupants of the other sites.
Changing Equestrian Campsite Reservations - POLICY
The last day to change a reservation is 4 days prior to arrival. EXCEPTION: If your reservation arrival date is the same date as the trail closing date or the following day, you may change your reservation by calling the call center ONLY (877-427-2757). A $5 change fee applies for each campsite reservation which is changed.
Cancelling Equestrian Campsite Reservations - POLICY
Campers can cancel a reservation up to the day of arrival. All cancellations must be cancelled by calling the call center ONLY (877-427-2757). A $5 cancellation fee applies for each campsite which is cancelled. If a camper cancels one day prior to the arrival date, a forfeiture of one night's camping fee applies in addition to the $5 cancellation fee. If a camper cancels the day of arrival, the $5 cancellation fee applies and forfeiture of two night's camping fees.
Changes and cancellations must be handled through the call center. Call center hours are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (CST) Monday through Friday and closed on state holidays.
All reservation transaction fees are nonrefundable.

Passenger transportation is the core business of the Lufthansa Group. This business segment includes Lufthansa passenger airlines (incl. Lufthansa Regional and Lufthansa Italia), Austrian Airlines, British Midland (bmi), SWISS and Germanwings as well as the equity stakes in Brussels Airlines, JetBlue and SunExpress.
The objective in this business segment is to strengthen Lufthansa's position as a leading European premium carrier offering services in a global network. Lufthansa serves all major traffic flows into, out of and across Europe. To realize its goal, Lufthansa rests its growth strategy on three pillars. For one, Lufthansa is expanding its short and long-haul network in the medium term through organic growth. In the interest of cost efficiency, that expansion is achieved primarily through the hubs in Frankfurt, Munich, Zurich, Vienna and Brussels. Together, Lufthansa, SWISS, AUA, bmi und Brussels Airlines operate a wide variety of flights in serving 274 destinations in 104 countries on four continents. For another, Lufthansa is expanding cooperation with partners. Star Alliance, above all, is playing a major role in opening up new markets. The 26 member airlines in the airline grouping currently serve a total of 1077 destinations in 175 countries. Star Alliance will further strengthen its position, worldwide, with the forthcoming admission of TAM, Aegean and Air India. Airlines in the Lufthansa airline group operate additionally with an array of services in other markets on the basis of bilateral (e.g. regional) partnerships. Thirdly, Lufthansa actively participates in the ongoing consolidation of the airline business in Europe by acquiring stakes in Brussels Airlines, for example, or taking over other carriers – latterly Austrian Airlines – wherever that makes economic and strategic sense. The Group is accordingly evolving into a multi-hub-/multi-brand-airline system.

We know that risk when we step on the ice so you go along with it, so everybody just shut up!Panthers forward Krys Barch, on concussion-related wrangling at the GM Meetings in Boca Raton.

MP Drax condemns defence cuts
6:00pm Friday 25th January 2013 in News
SOUTH Dorset MP and former Coldstream Guards officer Richard Drax, inset, has criticised the government's latest round of defence cuts.
A third round of cuts, announced yesterday, will see 5,300 soldiers lose their jobs and the British Army reduced to 82,000 personnel – its lowest level since the 1700s.
Defence Secretary Phillip Hammond blamed the cuts on "the defence deficit this Government inherited and the consequent scale of downsizing required in the army".
However, many critics argue downsizing the armed forces while the UK still faces real or potential threats around the globe is a huge error.
Mr Drax, pictured, told the Daily Echo: "My view is that the defence of our country should be our top priority.
"We live in increasingly unstable times, as this latest outrage in Algeria has proved.
"The Prime Minister has not ruled out putting boots on the ground in North Africa and our generals and other senior officers are saying we are stretched to the limit.
"The armed services will always do what they are told, that is what is so wonderful about our armed services.
"But if they give us this loyalty, we owe them a loyalty and duty to ensure they have the right kit and the right amount of manpower."

The problem is the enourmous costs of running the military, for example to replace a broken part on a vehicle or aircraft in Afghanistan costs so much because
1 procuring it in the first place
2 storing it in the UK until needed
3 shipping it by air
4 the number of people actually involved may be up to 10 including accounts, stores, transport, aircrew and groundcrew, delivery and accounts at the other end plus the guy to fit it.
Much of this cost CAN be easily reduced.
Firstly the government(s) of the day should figure the cost of starting a war, how long they expect it to last, what the human costs will be and then triple that amount and tell the country what THEY are going to do and WHY it is so important.
The New Labour got the UK into Iraq and then Afghanistan many years ago with no real idea of why or how long or how much and now the whole country is paying for it and will be for generations yet.
The country will also pay in the future for the current cost cutting of the military as you cannot simple double the size of the mitary overnight without being able to properly equip it, train it, find somewhere for them to live and be with their families.
In fact you may not even be able to get enough people to join up after they see the way the military are treated now.
The military will always do their best with what they have.
Blame the politicians of all sides most of whom couldn't even find a military boot if it kicked them in the ***e.

Haunting images of dozens of dead children in Syria, among 90 killed in new regime attack
BEIRUT (AP) -- Gruesome video Saturday showed rows of dead Syrian children lying in a mosque in bloody shorts and T-shirts with gaping head wounds, haunting images of what activists called one of the deadliest regime attacks yet in Syria's 14-month-old uprising.
The shelling attack on Houla, a group of villages northwest of the central city of Homs, killed more than 90 people, including at least 32 children under the age of 10, the head of the U.N. observer team in Syria said.
The attacks sparked outrage from U.S. and other international leaders, and large protests in the suburbs of Syria's capital of Damascus and its largest city, Aleppo. It also renewed fears of the relevance of a month-old international peace plan that has not stopped almost daily violence.
The U.N. denounced the attacks in a statement that appeared to hold President Bashar Assad's regime responsible, and the White House called the violence acts of "unspeakable and inhuman brutality."
"This appalling and brutal crime involving indiscriminate and disproportionate use of force is a flagrant violation of international law and of the commitments of the Syrian government to cease the use of heavy weapons in population centers and violence in all its forms," said U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon and international envoy Kofi Annan. "Those responsible for perpetrating this crime must be held to account."
Vatican in chaos after pope's butler arrested for leaks, bank president ousted for negligence
VATICAN CITY (AP) -- An already sordid scandal over leaked Vatican documents took a Hollywood-like turn Saturday with confirmation that the pope's own butler had been arrested after documents he had no business having were found in his Vatican City apartment.
The detention of butler Paolo Gabriele, one of the few members of the papal household, capped one of the most convulsive weeks in recent Vatican history and threw the Holy See into chaos as it enters a critical phase in its efforts to show the world it's serious about complying with international norms on financial transparency.
The tumult began with the publication last weekend of a book of leaked Vatican documents detailing power struggles, political intrigue and corruption in the highest levels of Catholic Church governance. It peaked with the inglorious ouster on Thursday of the president of the Vatican bank. And it concluded with confirmation Saturday that Pope Benedict XVI's own butler was the alleged mole feeding documents to Italian journalists in an apparent bid to discredit the pontiff's No. 2.
"If you wrote this in fiction you wouldn't believe it," said Carl Anderson, a member of the board of the Vatican bank which contributed to the tumult with its no-confidence vote in its president, Ettore Gotti Tedeschi. "No editor would let you put it in a novel."
The bank, known as the Institute for Religious Works, issued a scathing denunciation of Gotti Tedeschi in a memorandum obtained Saturday by The Associated Press. In it the bank, or IOR by its Italian initials, explained its reasons for ousting Gotti Tedeschi: he routinely missed board meetings, failed to do his job, failed to defend the bank, polarized its personnel and displayed "progressively erratic personal behavior."
Egypt's top 2 candidates in presidential race reach out to critics to broaden support
CAIRO (AP) -- The two surviving candidates in Egypt's presidential election appealed Saturday for support from voters who rejected them as polarizing extremists in the first round even as they faced a new challenge from the third runner-up who contested the preliminary results.
Hosni Mubarak's last prime minister, Ahmed Shafiq, vowed he won't revive the old authoritarian regime as he sought to cast off his image as an anti-revolution figure, while the Muslim Brotherhood's candidate, Mohammed Morsi, reached out to those fearful of hardline Islamic rule and the rise of a religious state.
Many votes are up for grabs, but the two candidates will have a tough battle wooing the middle ground voters amid calls from activists for a boycott of the divisive vote.
Adding to the uncertainty, Hamdeen Sabahi called for a partial vote recount, citing violations that he claimed could change the outcome, a prospect that may further enflame an already explosive race. Sabahi, a socialist and a champion of the poor, came in third by a margin of some 700,000 votes, leaving him out of the next round to be held on June 16-17.
Many Egyptians were dismayed by the early results, which opened a contest that looked like a throwback to Mubarak's era -- a rivalry between a military-rooted strongman promising a firm hand to ensure stability and Islamists who were repressed under the old regime but have become the most powerful political force in post-revolutionary Egypt.
Residents of Cairo's City of the Dead hope new president will help them find new home
CAIRO (AP) -- As Egyptians took part in the country's first free presidential election, residents of one of Cairo's poorest quarters expressed hope that a new leader would help them with a simple request -- finding a new home.
Thousands of Cairo's poor live in the City of the Dead, a centuries-old necropolis replete with tombs and mausoleums that spreads out in a vast patchwork at the foot of the Mokattam Hills.
The conditions are cramped among the tombs. Children play with toys alongside gravestones that double as makeshift tables and shelves. Residents have sealed over graves to make kitchen or bedroom floors. Laundry hangs from clotheslines stretched between two tombstones.
"I have spent 25 years in cemeteries. No one checks on us and I live on only 200 pounds ($30) a month," said local resident Nadera Samir.
For some, living among the dead is a source of anxiety and nightmares.

Romney with narrower path than Obama to electoral goal, but NC, Midwest brightening for GOP
President Barack Obama faces new warning signs in a once-promising Southern state and typically Democratic-voting Midwestern states roughly five months before the election even as he benefits nationally from encouraging economic news.
Obama's new worries about North Carolina and Wisconsin offer opportunities for Republican Mitt Romney, who must peel off states Obama won in 2008 if he's to cobble together the 270 electoral votes needed to oust the incumbent in November.
Iowa, which kicked off the campaign in January, is now expected to be tight to the finish, while New Mexico, thought early to be pivotal, seems to be drifting into Democratic territory.
If the election were today, Obama would likely win 247 electoral votes to Romney's 206, according to an Associated Press analysis of polls, ad spending and key developments in states, along with interviews with more than a dozen Republican and Democratic strategists both inside and outside of the two campaigns.
Seven states, offering a combined 85 electoral votes, are viewed as too close to give either candidate a meaningful advantage: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, Ohio and Virginia.
Beryl approaching southeast US coast; rain, winds forecast for Memorial Day
SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) -- A cluster of thunderstorms that stalled off the southeastern U.S. coast on Saturday is expected to make for a sloppy, rainy Memorial Day on beaches and in tourist towns from Florida to South Carolina.
Tropical storm warnings were in effect for the entire Georgia coastline, as well as parts of Florida and South Carolina, according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami. A tropical storm watch for the South Carolina coast north of Edisto Beach was discontinued late Saturday night.
Beryl was technically still considered a "subtropical storm," but the system is expected to bring winds and rain to the area regardless of its official classification.
Tropical storm conditions -- meaning maximum sustained winds of 45 mph (72 kph) -- were expected to reach the coast Sunday. Three to six inches of rain are forecast for the area. Some coastal flooding is forecast, as the rain could cause high tides.
As of 11 p.m. EDT Saturday, Beryl was centered about 215 miles (346 kilometers) southeast of Charleston, S.C. It had maximum sustained winds of 50 mph (80 kph). It was moving toward the southwest at 7 mph (11 kph), with its center expected to be near the U.S. coast on Sunday. The storm was expected to make landfall Sunday night or Monday.
NJ family in shock over arrest of relative in NYC boy's 1979 disappearance
NEW YORK (AP) -- When police dug up a Manhattan basement last month in a fruitless search for the remains of Etan Patz, a 6-year-old boy who disappeared in 1979, Lucy Suarez saw the news on TV and wished that the family of the missing child would finally get some peace.
"My sister and I prayed about it. We prayed and we said, 'Let justice be done,'" Suarez said. "Never did we think it was going to be done with our family."
On Friday, her older brother was charged with Etan's murder.
Police said Pedro Hernandez, a 51-year-old, churchgoing father described by some friends as quiet and timid, had given an emotional confession earlier in the week to luring the little boy away from his school bus stop with a promise of a soft drink, and then strangling him in the basement of a convenience store where he had been working as a stock clerk.
The admission surprised investigators, who had been confounded by the disappearance for three decades and never considered Hernandez a suspect until this month. Just weeks ago, they had focused their attention on another man, and even ripped up a basement he had once used as a workshop in the hope of finding clues.
Sweden's Loreen wins Eurovision song contest with dance hit, pushing aside elderly rivals
BAKU, Azerbaijan (AP) -- Sweden's Loreen clinched the top spot at this year's Eurovision Song Contest with her dance hit "Euphoria," pushing aside competition from a sextet of Russian grannies and a Serbian balladeer.
Juries and television viewers from across Europe awarded Loreen a total of 372 points, handing her an easy win in an event that ended in the early hours Sunday in host country Azerbaijan. Sweden will take over hosting duties next year.
Softly spoken Loreen, a 28-year-old of Moroccan-Berber descent, thanked her fans for their support.
"I wouldn't have been able to do this without you. Thank you so much," she said after her victory was announced.
Russia's Buranovskiye Babushki garnered much public affection for their cute onstage presence, but their folksy dance ditty "Party for Everybody" couldn't quite match Sweden's more contemporary offering and ended up second on 259 points.
Rondo, Garnett lead Celtics to 85-75 Game 7 win over 76ers and into East finals vs. Miami
BOSTON (AP) -- Rajon Rondo had 18 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds and the Boston Celtics beat the Philadelphia 76ers 85-75 in Game 7 on Saturday night to advance to the Eastern Conference finals.
The Celtics will open the third round of the NBA playoffs in Miami against the Heat on Monday night.
Rondo scored nine straight Boston points, helping the Celtics turn a three-point edge into a double-digit lead after Paul Pierce fouled out with 4:16 left in the game.
Andre Iguodala scored 18 points, and Elton Brand and Jrue Holiday had 15 apiece for the 76ers, who eliminated the top-seeded Chicago Bulls in the first round but couldn't do the same with the Celtics.
Kevin Garnett had 18 points and 13 rebounds, and Ray Allen hit a pair of fourth-quarter 3-pointers after missing his first five attempts. Pierce had 15 points and nine rebounds before fouling out.

Earlier this week, Seattle Mariners closer David Aardsma was diagnosed with a grade 2 sprain of the UCL in his elbow. He was immediately shipped off to Los Angeles to meet with a certain Dr. Yocum, who would give him a second opinion and help decide where Aardsma will go from here. Would Aardsma need surgery, or would he try for rest and rehabilitation instead?
I'll let Aardsma give you the answer:
It was a good trip down to LA. Gonna rehab for a month and start throwing again after :)
So Aardsma will try to strengthen his elbow and get back on a throwing schedule in a month. There's no guarantee that he'll be able to avoid ligament replacement surgery in the future, but he's avoiding it for now, and may not need it at all. I don't know how effective the rehab route usually is, but it wouldn't be an option if it didn't work.
Aardsma's still out indefinitely and might not pitch this season, but given today's report, there is at least a chance. In the meantime, Brandon League will continue to serve as the Mariners' closer, despite his recent hiccups. Or recent projectile vomits, I guess, since hiccups are gentle and only mildly unpleasant.

Nature's Plus Ultra Garlite Sustained Release 1000 mg. - 90 Tablets
Nature's Plus Ultra Garlite Sustained Release is the most potent garlic supplement ever developed. Each Nature's Plus Ultra Garlite tablet supplies 1,000 mg of non-GMO aged garlic, the only choice for those seeking the finest odorless garlic. Nature's Plus Ultra Garlite is the ultimate garlic supplement! Nature's Plus is committed to offering the best supplements available anywhere.
Nature's Plus Ultra Garlite Highlights:
Free from artificial colors and preservatives. Free from the common allergens yeast, wheat, corn, soy, and milk.GarlicParts used and where grownGarlic has been used since time immemorial as a culinary spice and medicinal herb. Garlic has been cultivated in the Middle East for more than 5,000 years and has been an important part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The region with the largest commercial garlic production is central California. China is also a supplier of commercial garlic. The bulb is used medicinally.
Historical or Traditional Use Garlic is mentioned in the Bible and the Talmud. Hippocrates, Galen, Pliny the Elder, and Dioscorides all mention the use of garlic for many conditions, including parasites, respiratory problems, poor digestion, and low energy. Its use in China was first mentioned in A.D. 510. Louis Pasteur studied the antibacterial action of garlic in 1858.
Active constituentsThe sulfur compound allicin, produced by crushing or chewing fresh garlic or by taking powdered garlic products with allicin potential, in turn produces other sulfur compounds: ajoene, allyl sulfides, and vinyldithiins. Aged garlic products lack allicin, but may have activity due to the presence of S-allylcysteine.
Many publications have shown that garlic supports the cardiovascular system. While earlier trials suggest it may mildly lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood, more recent trials found garlic to have minimal success in lowering cholesterol and triglycerides. Garlic also inhibits platelet stickiness (aggregation) and increases fibrinolysis, which results in a slowing of blood coagulation. It is mildly antihypertensive and has antioxidant activity.
Garlic's cardiovascular protective effects were illustrated in a four-year clinical trial on people 50–80 years old with atherosclerosis. It was found that consumption of 900 mg of a standardized garlic supplement reduced arterial plaque formation by 5–18%. The benefits were most notable in women.
In test tube studies garlic has been found to have antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal activity. However, these actions are less clear in humans and do not suggest that garlic is a substitute for antibiotics or antifungal medications.
Human population studies suggest that eating garlic regularly reduces the risk of esophageal, stomach, and colon cancer. This may be partly due to garlic's ability to reduce the formation of carcinogenic compounds.
How much is usually taken?People who wish to consume garlic and have no aversion to its odor can chew from one to two whole cloves of raw garlic daily. For those who prefer it with less odor, enteric-coated tablets or capsules with approximately 1.3% allin are available. Clinical trials have used 600–900 mg (delivering approximately 5,000–6,000 mcg of allicin potential) per day in two or three divided amounts. Aged-garlic extracts have been studied in amounts ranging from 2.4–7.2 grams per day.
Are there any side effects or interactions?Many people enjoy eating garlic. However, some people who are sensitive to it may experience heartburn and flatulence. Because of garlic's anti-clotting properties, people taking anticoagulant drugs should check with their doctor before taking garlic. Those scheduled for surgery should inform their surgeon if they are taking garlic supplements. Garlic appears to be safe during pregnancy and breast-feeding. In fact, two studies have shown that babies like breast milk better from mothers who eat garlic.
Manufactured with Non-GMO aged garlic and guaranteed to leave no after-odor, either through the mouth or pores, after consumption. ULTRA GARLITE is manufactured with a unique, quick cool-drying process which guarantees the allicin and other phytonutrient content to be the same as that which is present in fresh garlic.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

6 New Haircuts for Long Hair
Sick of your hairstylist offering "long layers" as the only option for your "I love my long hair" hair? These are the best long haircuts that are happening now
Which is why I literally jumped up and down when hairstylists started telling me that the super-long hair trend is O-V-E-R. Instead, they universally declared that the best long haircuts range from clavicle-length to mid-back.
Skip ahead to see the best long haircuts.
And here's the best part: Not once did they utter the phrase "long layers," which has essentially been the only option for long hair up until now.
"Finally, there are so many interesting ways to wear your hair long," says Sebastian Professional Lead Stylist Design Team Member Janine Jarman. "And I'm so happy that too-long hair is going away." There are new trends in long hair -- and the best long haircuts are fresh and even more flattering.
So if you're ready for a change, but you're not quite convinced a pixie or a bob is for you, try one of these. They're the best long haircuts that are happening now -- at a length that anyone -- even me -- can achieve.

Thank you for mentioning the donation of hair. I try to mention it when I can, but never knew the different lengths asked for. Also, some area hairdressers will actually sometimes be able to do it too.

I finally cut my hair shorter (medium length) and couldn't stand it. Make sure you go in stages if you've had long hair for awhile!

I've wanted to have "mermaid hair" for years. My hair is super thick but never grows past mid-back. I finally got over the super long hair and wear mine a couple inches below the collarbone. It really does look better on me and it looks thicker. Great article!

It'll be a tough go for people traveling south on Interstate 95 in northern Virginia this weekend.
The Virginia Department of Transportation is planning a full shutdown of the highway in order to lift steel beams in place near exit 148 in Triangle. The beams will form part of a new bridge that's part of an extension of the high-occupancy vehicle lanes.
Lane closures will begin at 9:30 p.m. Friday, and all southbound lanes will be closed by 1 a.m. Saturday. The southbound lanes will also close at 1 a.m. Sunday and 1 a.m. Monday.
The lanes will be closed for a few hours each night and reopen one at a time. All lanes will be open by 10 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday and by 5 a.m. on Monday.

MUMBAI: Stock markets rose initially after RBI cut the cash reserve ratio (CRR) in a surprise move along with a repo rate reduction, but fell as traders booked profits after the apex bank's policy stance indicated further interest rate cuts would be incumbent upon a moderation of inflation and current account deficit.
The Sensex, which has risen by close to 3% this year largely on expectations of a rate cut, declined by 0.56%, or 112.45 points, to 19990.9 on Tuesday, after the policy statement was released. The broader, Nifty index corrected by 0.41% to 6049.9 points. Bank Nifty fell by almost half a percent on profit-taking.

Chris Anderson named Collegiate Baseball Freshman All-America
Freshman Chris Anderson arrived on the First Coast as a starting pitcher out of Minnesota but a move to the closer role has paid dividends for him after being named Freshman All-America by Collegiate Baseball.
Anderson, who also earned A-Sun second team and all-freshman honors, gives JU a freshman All-America for the second straight season after outfielder Dan Gulbransen and first baseman Adam Brett Walker received the accolade from three separate outlets (NCBWA, Louisville Slugger, PING!Baseball.com) in 2010.
"The amount of freshmen that we had on our squad in 2010 was the most since I have been coaching," said JU head coach Terry Alexander. "Chris is an example of the talent that came out of that freshman group. He did a tremendous job of adjusting his role to help the program and he flourished. We are looking for more great things from Chris as his career continues."
Anderson, who was forced to move to the closer role after injuries plagued the pitching staff, proved one of the top closers in the conference by ranking second with 11 saves. He also was the workhorse of staff by setting a program single-season record with 36 appearances. Anderson finished third on the JU staff with a 4-2 record while ranking second with a .229 opponent batting average.
He earned A-Sun "Player of the Week" honors on April 11 after saving games one and two before earning the win in extra innings in a series sweep over Mercer at Claude Smith Field.

The Fresh Choice in San Antonio Center appears to have closed down?
Any news on that one?
My family of hungry teenagers will miss it and no doubt they will not eat as healthy when they eat out in future.
on Dec 3, 2012 at 9:15 am
Healthier Faster Food,
Fresh Choice seems to have filed for bankruptcy (Web Link) and have closed down a lot of their locations. I believe the Cupertino and Milpitas ones are still open, though.
We're sorry to see them as well :(
on Dec 3, 2012 at 9:23 am
Since this is a better choice for a drive thru, perhaps we will get a Chik Fil A (according to my teenagers it is the healthiest fast food).

Yes, let's cheer for moderately priced clothing stores leaving Stanford Shopping Center. Very soon only rich tourists will be able to shop there.

Anyone know what happened to Pasta ? on University Ave?
on Dec 3, 2012 at 4:59 pm
I think there was an article about a month ago about pasta?. Search the archives. I think it's morphed into a different sort of Italian place with same owner.
on Dec 3, 2012 at 6:15 pm
Pasta Is being re-done into a new italian place, forget the name, but main thing is that they are adding a brick oven for classical pizza's

Heavy rains and flooding are making for treacherous driving in the mid-Atlantic region.
The National Weather Service says two to five inches of rain fell in some areas of the greater Washington D.C. area and more showers and chances of thunderstorms are possible Friday in the already saturated region. Flash flood watches and flood warnings are in effect for much of the area.
The rain kept officials from setting two-way traffic on the westbound span of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge to ease Friday afternoon beach traffic congestion and highway officials warned of an eight mile delay approaching the bridge. In Ocean City, police officers helped people whose cars had stalled in standing water.
In Delaware, officials reported flooded roads in Kent and Sussex counties, with water on many other roads.

Unless speed at the expense of IQ and control is your only priority, jpeg on a DSLR is a pointless option.
I usually put it like this: if you shoot jpeg you start with as much image "information" as you end up with if you shoot Raw and convert the files yourself.
I'll say this too: there's not an in-camera jpeg engine in existence that can process a Raw file as well as I can, and there never will be.
Not necessarily, a few wedding photogs mentioned with the 5d3, they shot jpeg to sd and raw to cf, and took out the sd and plugged it into a monitor/laptop/etc to display ceremony pictures during the reception... One of my clients whom I shoot product photography, their catalog photos get saved at 1200x900 pixels and then resized down the 640x480 for web from there and usually they expect a few hour turnaround per batch of photos... jpeg for that is more information than they can even use for those applications. Every month we do printed publications in which Raw+jpeg are used for print and web purposes... I also have other clients that are nationally known companies, their photos are resized once again down to 640x480... I can shoot raw but in the end, photos are not going to be any better than a jpeg shot correctly in those applications, and quicker and for what it is, the companies couldn't be happier. In the professional arena we got to weigh time spent shooting, time spent post production, money charged per shoot and gauging how much work is needed to pull each shoot off... Ideally RAW is the best medium for everything, but business wise, sometimes it is, sometimes it's not. Doesn't make it right or wrong, it is what it is.

MONMOUTH, Ill. – Like the characters in Alexandre Dumas' classic novel "The Three Musketeers," four Morton High School graduates have banded together at Monmouth College to help the Fighting Scots' men's soccer team to their most successful season in nearly 10 years.
Andy Sheller, Matt Schmidt, Logan Simpson and Devin Freitag went their separate ways after graduating from Morton High School in 2009, but eventually came back together to lead the Fighting Scots to a school-record tying eight match unbeaten streak. Sheller was the first to wear the "Red and White," and that started the ball rolling.
"I saw Monmouth as an opportunity to help build a program capable of competing for a conference title," said Sheller, a biology major. "Aside from the athletics, Monmouth provided a good education with a small campus atmosphere. I knew I wouldn't be a number. I know all my professors on a first-name basis."
Schmidt joined Sheller the following fall. After a semester at the University of Iowa, the accounting major transferred to Illinois Central College before ultimately joining his former teammate, just before fall registration ended.
"It was a spur-of-the-moment decision," explained Schmidt on his decision to attend Monmouth. "I ended up not liking Iowa because it was too big. Don Sheller (Andy's father) got me to talk to Coach (George) Perry about playing soccer and I enrolled two days before the end of registration. Andy has been a life-long friend and convinced me it was the right move. I'm glad he did."
It took Simpson and Freitag a little longer to be convinced to join their longtime friends. Simpson, an accounting major, spent two years playing soccer at national contender Dominican University. Freitag, meanwhile, was honing his skills at ICC and earning an associate's degree in arts and science before transferring to Monmouth and majoring in biology.
At Monmouth, the "Four Musketeers" fell into the same roles as they had for the Potters. Schmidt has been solid in goal, Sheller at defender, Simpson in the midfield and Freitag up top as the Scots have rolled to a 7-4-2 record, the team's highest win total since 2002. With three, and perhaps more, games yet to play, the Morton connection is anxious to show what they can do, although it did take some adjustment.
"The level of technical skill required for college and the speed of play that you must have has been the biggest difference from high school," said Freitag. "College is a completely different style of play from high school. It's more competitive and more physical with more pace on and off the ball."
Simpson, the Scots' leading scorer (Freitag is No. 2), is pleased with his decision to join the friends he had played with since grade school. Like Dumas' d'Artagnan, Athos, Porthos and Aramis, the Morton foursome has become nearly inseparable on the pitch.
"I knew that Matt and Andy had a good time at Monmouth, so I figured I'd transfer to Monmouth to play soccer with two of my best friends," said Simpson. "The addition of Devin made me feel like I had made the right choice."
Coach Perry couldn't be happier with his Morton quartet.
"I knew Morton had an excellent program," said Perry, now in his sixth year at Monmouth. "We were fortunate to land Andy. His older brother Scott was here on the track and cross country team, so we had that connection. Logan, Devin and Matt came in and filled the voids. Logan and Devin are true scoring threats."
Not only have the former high school mates filled some the Scots' needs, they've also raised their level of play, and more importantly, made those around them better.
"Playing together for so long, they know what each other can do and they hold each other accountable," said Perry. "They've also pulled their teammates along and the result is the entire team is playing much better. We're certainly glad the Morton kids are here."
While each of Perry's Morton recruits took different routes to become a Fighting Scot, they all agreed it was the right move.
"Overall, Monmouth has been an amazing experience," summed up Simpson. "The classes are very challenging and the professors work with you in order to get help in a specific class. Monmouth is a great school, and I'm very happy I transferred here."
Much like d'Artagnan's quest to become a Musketeer, the Scots have faced many challenges this season, going 1-4 through the first five games. That "rough" start makes them appreciate what they can accomplish through teamwork.
"The success that we've had this season doesn't fall simply upon one player," said Simpson. "Every member of our team, including Coach Perry, has believed that this program can be successful, and we work hard as a team to get the job done."
Simpson's sentiment brings to mind the Three Musketeers' motto: "All for one, one for all."

Pretty good! A step up from their last album but still not as good as Back Into Your System or Survival Of The Sickest.
Saliva Biography - Saliva Discography - All Heavy Metal Bands
Multi-platinum Island Records' five-man band Saliva has completed its aptly-titled fifth album, CINCO DIABLO, set to arrive in the physical and digital marketplace on December 16th – the ultimate alt-metal post-grunge must-have CD this twisted holiday season! The new album's first single pick, "Family Reunion," was #1 Most Added at Active Rock and Modern Rock radio and is already on over 75 stations at both formats. In advance support of CINCO DIABLO, Memphis favorites Saliva continue their never-ending headlining tour schedule with Jet Black Stare, Drowning Pool, and Tantric through Nov. 11th (Veteran's Day) in Texas. Saliva will play a halftime NBA homecoming gig at FedEx Forum in Memphis on Halloween, when the Grizzlies host the Magic. CINCO DIABLO is the long-awaited followed to Blood Stained Love Story, Saliva's fourth album, released nearly two years ago in January 2007. It gave the band the highest Soundscan debut of their career – #19-bullet on combined first week sales of 30,000 copies. The album also spun off one of Saliva's highest-charting singles, "Ladies and Gentlemen," which rose to #1 at Active Rock and #2 at Mainstream Rock. "Ladies and Gentlemen" was heard in a Sony Playstation commercial last year, and was also used in Wrestlemania and Ultimate Fighting show Wired. The song matched the success of their biggest single to date, "Always," which hit #1 at Active and Modern Rock back in 2002 (from the Back Into Your System album). Saliva – singer and lyricist Josey Scott, guitarists Wayne Swinny and Jon Montoya, bassist Dave Novotny, and drummer Paul Crosby – was formed in Memphis in 1996, and issued their eponymously titled indie debut the next year. Their major label debut arrived on Island's Uptown/Universal imprint in 2001, Every Six Seconds. It included their first charted rock single "Click Click Boom" and the Grammy-nominated #3 Mainstream Rock track, "Your Disease" (featured on the Dracula 2000 movie soundtrack). (Every Six Seconds, now available via the newly-relaunched Mercury Records label, received RIAA double-platinum certification in July 2008.)

The boys here are getting back into form from last disc, more rock for one, some may say they cheesed few same relabeled tunes from few other discs ,but they hold their own and are still fresh and there is a lil piece off each cd in my book , but to say the closest to form is the 3 previous to this cd, or like "survival" and the rockerz off "blood stained" overall this is more a solid disc like "survival" good disc and not overkill on the lovey mellow tunes altho there is a couple here, and i tunes has a killer bonus track called "hit me" ,only ten tunes is kinda a let down why i got off i tunes for the bonus track , overall better than last, "judgement day " solid rocker & "hunt you down" also, family reunion has similar to" ladies & gents" but still rocks in a new light..
Saliva is one of the best rock band around at the moment. This album maintains there dominance. If you like there old stuff you will like this. Has some familiar sounds, new stuff, and some just good ole fashion rock.
I was hoping this album would make up for their last album, Bloob Stained Love Story (which quite frankly, was slow, poppish, and sounded like they were selling out). I was not disappointed.
Family Reunion – I liked this song, but its not a song I'd listen to on repeat
My Own Worst Enemy – Good guitar rips, this song I'd put in an action movie
Best of Me – This song is a little too repitive to listen to over and over, but its GREAT to listen to when you want to hear it.
How Could You – Softer rock, a good song nevertheless
Hunt You Down – One of my favorite saliva songs in years, up there with their early stuff.
Judgement Day – My favorite song on this CD, amazing guitar rips, great to rock out to.
Forever And A Day – Has the same sort of feel as Rest In Pieces, which i liked a lot, i love this song too even though it's still slower than i usually like.
I'm Coming Back – Has a SERIOUS flashback to their old sound. This is a good song.
Southern Girls – This song has a little classic rock feel to it, This is a great song if you like the ACDC style.
So Long – Just like a a good movie that has a bad ending, this song kils the album, its the reason i couldnt give it 5 stars.
With the exception of the last track, and "How Could You", this is a great album.
Lets set the record straight (pun intended….sorry). If you're a Saliva fan you won't be disappointed. Cinco Diablo has something from every prior album in every song. It's a collectively good album, with higher and lower points. Some songs have simpler yet good structure with guitar tone similar to Every Six Seconds, some are more melodic and have Back in Your System-like guitar fills. You get the heaviness of Survival of the Sickest toned down just a bit in spots, and at other times you get the lighter, more produced sound of Blood Stained Love Story. None of the songs really strike me as filler.
You'll see others saying the album doesn't bring anything different. While it does bring something different, its still Saliva. That's why I bought it. Love Story was a step in a different direction, and probably the least favorite of any fan. What happened when Metallica brought something new to the table?
You'll see others complaining about Josey saying BOOM in his songs. It's a trademark. Anyone that's ever seen them live cannot disagree that Family Reunion will be a great live song, and I promise you the entire crowd will be yelling BOOM along with him. It's a crowd interaction song the same as Click or Ladies and Gentlemen, or Always, and it was the correct choice for the first single.
The songs:
Family Reunion: First single. Classic Saliva sound.
My Own Worst Enemy: Heavier verse, Back in Your System-like chorus.
Best of Me: Heavier Blood Stained Love Story style song.
How Could You: You got me here. A good song-yes. Could it be titled Always II, absolutely. Same song structure.
Hunt You Down: Good `n heavy.
Judgment Day: You can't find fault in a song thanking a soldier.
Forever and a Day: Slow song. Back in Your System style guitar fills.
I'm coming Back: Every Six Seconds sound, more refined.
Southern Girls: Very bluesy. Driving bassline, but guitar is written a couple octaves high for my liking. Probably least favorite of all the songs. Its ok.
So Long: Another slow song. No comparison here really. A decent slow song. Second least favorite, but still not complaining.
From a musician's standpoint most of these songs should be fun to learn. Knowing about 75% of the first 3 albums, I only cared to learn 3 songs off Love Story. This one is different. I'm looking forward to learning most of these songs, you can sink you teeth into them just like the first 3 albums. That should say something about it. If you're a fan, buy this CD, turn it up until the speakers start to crackle and turn it down a hair, you shouldn't be disappointed.

Katrina Kaif's latest item number from Agneepath was spicy hot. Now it also got cheesy. Quite literally!
A popular pizza chain has named one of its pizzas after the 'Chikni Chameli' item babe. So after a milkshake was named after Mallika Sherawat in Hollywood, a pizza is named after Katrina Kaif in our very own Bollywood.

Art for a New Paradigm
The Art of Paradox at Play
De Jay Taylor
British artist Jay Taylor opens her portfolio to share some of her best loved original artworks. A visual feast containing 60 pages of inspirational full colour images, enhanced by accompanying text providing insight into the inner workings of both the creative process and the artist herself...
Acerca del autor
A self-taught, independent artist, I create without restraint or intent. I am a passionate advocate of natural learning, and this organic approach informs all of my work, giving my creations their vibrancy and spontaneity. An abiding love of nature keeps me going when my rather warped sense of humour fails. Above all, I reject the dysfunction and pain our culture perpetuates. More of the same is of no interest to me. I say "YES" to that which is life-serving: let a new paradigm emerge! :o)
