Perhaps you've heard of "revenge porn" -- in which exes post naked pictures of old boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands or wives online. Now, IsAnyoneUp.com is taking that a step further, sharing photos of naked people without their consent -- along with their full names, workplaces, and links to their Facebook pages.
"Even if you search my name in Google, the [IsAnyoneUp.com] link pops up," said Anthony, 20, of Chicago. Naturally, he didn't want us to use his last name. "Thankfully, no has found out yet."
Anthony, who is one of several Chicagoans on the site, calls his pictures "a 2-year-old mistake." He doesn't know who submitted them, and the site won't take them down.
"I've tried to do everything I can to get myself off. Nothing has worked," he said. "It makes me angry."
How can a site like this even exist?
The site's operator believes he's protected by a law called the Communications Decency Act of 1996, which includes a section that says websites aren't necessarily responsible for the content that users submit.
"It's other people who are hurting other people," said IsAnyoneUp.com publicist Paul Cibrano. "We're just creating a forum for it."
We asked Cibrano about a 19-year-old Chicago-area woman we interviewed who said she thought about killing herself after seeing her pictures on the site.
"We don't want to see anyone physically inflict pain and harm on themselves, we totally don't want to be a part of that," Cibrano said. "I'm not the one who posts the photos."
You can imagine how strange it was when that same publicist begged us not to use his interview, after he got a call from a lawyer.
Cibrano: I'm asking you as a favor. Please do not do this.
Chambers: Okay, hold on a second. You are now asking me for a favor. You are a publicist for a website that putting people's naked pictures up, their full names, where they work and people are asking you to take them down and your policy is absolutely freakin' not. And now you're saying to me, as a favor, please don't show the interview that you just shot. Do you find that a bit ironic?
Cibrano: Umm... I know it's a little out there.
Chambers: It's a lot out there. it's a lot out there."
And eventually he backed off that request.
Regardless, Chicago technology attorney Evan Brown said the biggest problem is that the site is violating copyright law. Brown said if you take a picture of yourself, you own the copyright even if you willingly send it to a boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse.
Brown has already had two clients whose pictures were posted on the site.
"Once there are enough people who get angry enough and have enough resources to challenge it, the site operator will realize that it's not worth his while to keep the site up," Brown said.
That's the thing: Many have threatened to sue IsAnyoneup.com, but up to now, no one has actually seen a lawsuit all the way through. If that happens, the question of what is legal and what isn't could be answered by a judge and jury.

i have a background exe which continuously writes some data to the database
now when the exe is writing the data, another application reads some data from the same database.
this application also controls the exe(starts and stops it).
first i get System Error -14(database already in use i suppose) while opening the databse for reading.
then when i actually prepare the database for the sql query, i get DBMS 2 panic which means database parameter
has remained uninitialized.
but if i read the same database when background exe is not writing to it, i am able to read it properly.
i am using the following code to open the database
where iItemsDatabase is RDbNamedDatabase and DBFileName is the path of the .db fileCode:TInt errCode = iItemsDatabase.Open(iFsSession, DBFileName,_L(" "),RDbNamedDatabase::EReadWrite);
what i think of is, do i actually need to open the database from the application while the background exe
is still writing to database? i am saying this because the database is already opened by the background exe
what should i do here?
can u suggest me what might be the problem in here or give a hint or some solution?

Don't let Armatrading play us as supporters of Israeli racism and apartheid
by Women of Color in the Global Women's Strike, Bay Area Campaign to End Israeli Apartheid
Principled musicians and artists are taking their stand with Palestinian people: Gil Scott-Heron, Elvis Costello, Sting, Bono, Snoop Dogg, Carlos Santana, Klaxons, Gorillaz and the Pixies all declined offers by Israel to play there. A growing number of distinguished people, including Archbishop Desmond Tutu and writers and artists such as Arundhati Roy, Alice Walker, John Berger, Adrienne Rich, Ken Loach and Naomi Klein, are publicly supporting the Palestinian-led boycott, divestment and sanctions movement.
Armatrading played just days after Israeli commandos murdered at least nine unarmed human rights activists on the Free Gaza Flotilla and wounded many others. Hundreds of thousands worldwide have been protesting against this shameless brutality.
Those of us who know what it's like to have suffered racism have an even greater responsibility to demonstrate support and compassion for other people of color whose lives are on the line. In 2005, a united call for boycott, divestment and sanctions of Israel was endorsed by over 170 Palestinian civil society organizations (www.bdsmovement.net).
Cultural boycott (www.pacbi.org) is an essential component of that call. As it states on the BDS Movement website: "By refusing to participate in cultural exchange, artists and cultural institutions globally can send a clear message to Israel that their occupation and discrimination against Palestinians is unacceptable."
According to the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI), Joan Armatrading performed in an amphitheatre located in a park that was a 1940s training camp of the Irgun, a Zionist terrorist force that perpetrated the 1948 ethnic cleansing, resulting in the forcible displacement of the overwhelming majority of the indigenous Palestinian population from their own homes, villages, homeland.
Today these refugees, the largest refugee population in the world, are being denied the right to return to the homes from which they were expelled. Ethnic cleansing continues to this day, including in the current expulsions of Palestinian people (Bedouin) from the Negev and from the Galilee and Jerusalem, including last week's destruction of the village of Al Farisyie in the Jordan valley by Israeli armed forces.
We must stand against Israeli apartheid: the bantustanization of Palestine, the brutal pass laws, ID cards and check points, compelling Jewish-Muslim couples and their children to live apart, Jewish-only roads, Jewish-only settlements; the Apartheid Wall tearing families and communities apart and separating farmers from their land; the theft of houses, land, water and other resources; and the denial of legal rights, including the use of torture of those in "administrative detention" and of "extra-judicial killing" – that is, death squads.
And we cannot forget the bombing of Gaza. All of us shared a desperate outrage at Israel's use of F-16s, drones, white phosphorous and depleted uranium; its murder of 1,400 people and the wounding and maiming of thousands more, including hundreds of children and others who were unarmed or holding white flags; its bombing of schools and hospitals; its decimation of animal and bird life; and its poisoning of water and air – poisoning life itself.
We are calling on everyone concerned with justice to write, call, leaflet and otherwise demonstrate to Joan Armatrading, who wrote a tribute to and performed for Nelson Mandela, that she can't play us. Protests have already taken place in Scotland, in Bradford (UK) and in Virginia at her first gigs following her visit to Israel. Help us send a message to Joan Armatrading. Show her and other would-be Israeli apologists that they can't hide.
Write to Joan Armatrading at email@example.com or www.joanarmatrading.com/index.asp?m=misc&n=contactus&p=1. Write to her record label at firstname.lastname@example.com or www.429records.com/sites/429records/contact.asp and phone them at (310) 451-0451 in Santa Monica.

shame you have no clue and lower yourself to anti Semitism.
best to support the controllers of Gaza named Hamas, a known terrorist organisation and ignore the facts.
Vin, can you provide some 'clues' or 'facts' to support your charge, or are you just one of those types that instantly labels anyone who disagrees with the Israeli governments policy, as 'anti-semetic'? Keep playing that card until it no longer has any meaning..↓
shame on joan for supporting israel which as far as their policies towards eradicating the palestian population is like that of the nazis. they drove out the jews from thier homes and hunted them down killing men women and children can vin here say that israel is any different because they seemed to be using those tactics today in palestine and if any body opposes their cruel methods they play the anti-semitic card very time. also what about the orthodox jews who apposed to what israel is doing and who siding with the palestians are they anti-semitic aswell?↓
Lal Sain
Labels of anti-semitism against peace activists are ludicrous and even back-firing against Israel's occupation lobby. People who even oppose BDS on principle are appalled by obscene use of "anti-semitic" card. Israeli writer Bradley Burtson, who opposes BDS in principle, honors Olympia Food Co-Op for showing a balanced approach by including a statement against anti-semitism. Pro-Israel organization Anti-Defamation League (ADL) receives his pointed attack for its "irrational" siege mentality.
"Survivors of the Holocaust are entitled to feelings that are irrational," (ADL National Director Abraham) Foxman, himself a survivor, told The New York Times.
"Referring to the loved ones of Sept. 11 victims, he said, 'Their anguish entitles them to positions that others would categorize as irrational or bigoted.'"
There is something at once refreshing and destructive about Foxman's words. Refreshing, in the sense that this sounds like unfiltered honesty. Destructive, in the sense that this is precisely the rationale under which many on the left have justified or excused non-progressive, at times overtly bigoted, statements and actions by militant Palestinians."↓
the article is just wrong and talk about racism when labeling israel as a different race than palestinians
you just show how shallow and stupid you are they are both semite and within israel people come in all shapes and colors some look arab some look european and some even black and all are jews and by the way the flotilla was a violent provocation israeli soldiers boarded the ship with paintball guns at first and before even communicating with the "travelers" they were attacked with knives and other weapons by mobs of people. youre ignorant and you are the who is racist towards others↓
Jack, you're a flat-out lying pretender when you weren't there and your words are anti-Muslim racist, glorifying Israel's cold-blooded murder of nine innocent Turkish humanitarian workers, one of them an 18-year-old American who had hoped to be a doctor. The Gaza Freedom Flotilla was 700 trained humanitarians and nonviolent human rights workers taking thousands of tons of urgently needed aid materials which Israel has blocked from entry into Gaza. Every human rights organization on Earth, from the International Committee of the Red Cross to Amnesty International has documented how brutal and criminal — inhumane and illegal — Israel's blockade of collective punishment against the e1.5 million people of Gaza is. Israel bombed all Gaza's water treatment facilities — a war crime — as well as dozens of mosques and thousands of civilian homes — more war crimes — and now virtually all the children of Gaza are being slowly poisoned from contaminated water.↓

- Beltre given another start at DH to rest feet
- Young congratulates Jeter on milestone
- Martin moves to Triple-A as Borbon heads to DL
- Blanco's condition revealed as bone bruise
ARLINGTON -- The Rangers officially announced their second big-name international signing of the month, inking Ronald Guzman of the Dominican Republic to a contract.He joined Nomar Mazara, another 16-year-old outfielder from the Dominican, who signed with the Rangers two days ago. Sources say Guzman signed for $3.45 million, and Mazara signed for $4.95 million. Guzman, who stands 6-foot-5 and weighs 205 pounds, was born on Oct. 20, 1994. He bats and throws left-handed. "When I tried out, I saw that they players work hard every day," Guzman said. "I want to be a part of this. I want to work too." Mazara and Guzman will both be teammates at the Rangers' Dominican complex in Boca Chica. They were also teammates on the Dominican Republic team at the RBI World Series in Jupiter, Fla. That team won the division championship.
Beltre given another start at DH to rest feet
ARLINGTON -- Adrian Beltre was given his second consecutive start at designated hitter on Saturday, as Rangers manager Ron Washington said he wanted to make sure the third baseman is healthy for the second half."He and Michael [Young] have been the two guys that have been grinding it since we've come out of Spring Training," Washington said. "I had a chance to give him back-to-back days off his feet, because we need just as much out of him in the second half as we got out of him in the first half." Washington also said that there was no injury to Beltre, who began Saturday with 84 starts at the hot corner this season and had appeared in all of the Rangers' 90 games. Saturday's start at designated hitter was his sixth start there. He will also start for the American League All-Stars after Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez pulled out of the festivities. "The opportunity is here for me to get him off his feet a couple days in a row, and we're on the same page," Washington said. "When I told him, he didn't fight me, so I like that."
Young congratulates Jeter on milestone
ARLINGTON -- A television inside the Rangers' clubhouse showed Derek Jeter collect the 3,000th hit of his career for the New York Yankees.Rangers infielder Michael Young played on the same team as Jeter in five All-Star Games, and both represented the United States in the World Baseball Classic, so he sent Jeter a text message of congratulations. "I think there's a mutual respect," Young said. "We became friends over the years. When it comes to this type of thing right here, you just say, 'Congratulations.'" Young said that knowing the competitor Jeter is, the Yankees' shortstop may not spend too much time celebrating the accomplishment and may already be focused on playing Sunday. "I know he's going to be really focused on the next game, but, hopefully, he takes some time to realize what a special moment this is," Young said. "There are only 28 guys in the history of the game who accomplished this." Jeter was voted to start for the American League All-Stars, but he pulled out because of concerns about his calf muscle, which forced him to the disabled list on June 15. Still, Young, who is headed to his seventh All-Star Game next week, would like to see his friend. "I would really like to see him in Arizona, so I can say it to him in person," he said.
Martin moves to Triple-A as Borbon heads to DL
ARLINGTON -- Outfielder Julio Borbon was placed on the disabled list on Saturday after injuring his left ankle with Triple-A Round Rock, and Rangers prospect Leonys Martin was promoted to take his place.Borbon, who was optioned to Triple-A by the Rangers on June 3, was carted off the field Friday. X-rays were negative, and doctors diagnosed it a sprained ankle. Martin, who was signed by the Rangers when he defected from Cuba earlier this season, tore apart Double-A, hitting .348 with four home runs in 112 at-bats with Frisco. Martin is already on the 40-man roster, and it stands to reason that the 23-year-old keeps performing in Triple-A like he did in Frisco, he could find himself on the Major League roster by September callups.
Blanco's condition revealed as bone bruise
ARLINGTON -- Rangers infielder Andres Blanco elaborated on Saturday about the stress reaction that forced him to the disabled list on Friday, saying that the doctors actually found a bone bruise when they checked up on him.
Blanco said the back pain had been bothering him for roughly a week, but he did not know what he did to instigate it.
"I might have done something wrong. I didn't realize when or how, but it started bothering me so bad," Blanco said. "We checked with the doctor, we took the pictures and saw a bone bruise."
Blanco started three out of four games from June 28 to July 1 and said that is when the pain first started.
Blanco said the DL trip is in order to give him rest, but that only swinging a bat irritates the injury. There was no issue for Blanco fielding, throwing or sprinting.

Deb's Oysters Rockefeller Recipe
Every November, our family and friends gather at our home for our annual "Oyster Party". My sons and some of their friends shuck between 300 and 400 oysters throughout the day and I prep, bake and serve them to our guests. Forks are spread out over the platter and everyone just starts grabbing the baked oysters off the tray. The most important part of this recipe is the Hollandaise Sauce that is put on the top of the Rockefeller—this just makes it taste better than any others out there.Deb Holt, Baltimore, Maryland
- 30 fresh oysters in the shell, washed
- 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1/2 pound bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
- 1/3 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 envelope hollandaise sauce mix
- 4 pounds rock salt
- Shuck oysters, reserving bottom shell; set aside. Spread rock salt into two ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pans. Lightly press the oyster shells down into the salt. Place one oyster in each shell; top each with spinach, bacon and cheese.
- Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 14-16 minutes or until oysters are plump. Meanwhile, prepare hollandaise sauce according to package directions. Drizzle over oysters and serve immediately. Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.

Glory's lair. The minions make excuses. Cut to the hallway. Fake, fake, incredibly fake, the aural equivalent of Fake the Snake fake, minion screams come from off-screen.
Der Zauber Kasten. The Buffybot is slumped over the table while Willow tries to repair her. Because that's what you do when a fuck bunny built in your graven image by your former archenemy who has a frightening obsession with you breaks. Not. In other words, another stupid plot contrivance. One that makes me think that the Buffybot is going to show up again. Xander and Giles enter, and Buffy wants to know if they dusted Spike. I want to know how they got him out of there without it turning into combustion junction. Good thing we had all those oh-so-necessary extended remixes of Spike/'bot pillow talk. Anyway, Xander and Giles had an attack of conscience, because he was too badly beaten for them to find out what he told Glory. Buffy worries that Glory could be on her way right now. Giles notices Dawn's frightened look and assures her that everyone is perfectly safe. "We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with," Dawn dryly observes. Tara offers, "It sounded convincing when I thought it." Heh. Willow calls their attention to the 'bot, showing them a couple of fried wires and commenting, "It's an easy fix." Yet again making me think that we're going to see the Buffybot again. Xander (Xander! Is nothing sacred?) actually expresses a bit of sympathy for Spike. Buffy reacts with anger at first, but then looks contemplative when Xander tells her how "thrashed" Spike looked.
Spike crypt. Buffy enters, pretending to be Buffybot. At Buffy's greeting, Spike sits up, and he does look pretty damn awful what with his eye all swelled shut. "Buffybot" wants to know why he let Glory beat the everlasting crap out of him, and he tells her that it was because Glory wanted to know who the Key is. Buffy cheerily offers to tell Glory, but Spike interrupts her with a forceful "NO!" Because, you see, if Glory finds out about the key, that would destroy the "other, not so pleasant" Buffy, and Spike would rather die than have that happen. So Buffy kisses him. And I understand that she's trying to show her gratitude here; we're probably all grateful that he didn't rat Dawn out. (Well, except for me, because I was hoping to see Spike return from his Snackwell brand of evil ways.) But Buffy? Damn, girl. Say it with Hallmark like the rest of us. After a moment, Spike pulls back, realizing that these are not robot lips. He starts to explain about the 'bot, but Buffy cuts him off, saying, "That thing. It wasn't even real." She starts to leave, but pauses and, with her back turned to Spike, says, "What you did for me and Dawn. That was real." She promises that she won't forget it, then walks out, leaving half the audience cheering and doing little dances and the other half fuming and getting out their voodoo dolls.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota (WXOW) - The Minnesota Vikings are warning fans to be on the lookout for counterfeit tickets.
The team expects a lot of fake tickets will be sold online and scalped near the stadium for this Sunday's (12/30) game against the Green Bay Packers.
If you get caught selling one, you could be arrested. Fans are being asked to look closely at the fine print on the back of the ticket to make sure it hasn't been photo-copied. And to be safe, only buy tickets from a seller you trust.
Kickoff is at 3:25 Sunday afternoon. It is the last game at Mall of America Field.

The portions in the resturant were too small and either consisted of mushroom sauce or spinach, you were left hungry by nine o clock and the eve buffet was the left overs from that day menu.yac yac .
the life boat drill was excerlently done , until it was spolit with the ships photographers which is a major distraction and shold not be done at a boring drill,its dangerous as no one was paying attention to the announcements being made.
the staff were excerllent.
the photoraphs were poorly taken and well over priced,we never saw the dvd in our cabins once so we never bought it.
I was refused a change off drink as it was mainly water and rum , no cream so i asked the waiter in the club that there was a problem with my drink and he refused to exchanged it , so i left it on the table.
The entertainment was very amaturish , some off the young ones had great voices, all being over shadowed via the ageing cruise director steve guy, move over guy ya voice is to course.
My main concern is the food in the orion resturant is very poor in taste and choice.well
The sights made up forall the cruise ships smell and sick and shitts. i have sent a letter too both parties but i feel i must warn people to what is truley going on aboard the tomson dreams flag ship ship, if you go pack plenty off sickness treatments and tum tablets and also lem sips due to poor air circulation i caught a bad cold during my first three days.

21st Century Wedding Trends
Trends don't always become traditions, but the following current wedding customs seem to have real staying power.
Personalized Weddings
Today's marriage ceremonies often blend elements that have special meaning for couples, especially multi-cultural or inter-faith weddings. Intimate and individualized, today's couples look to signature colors, monograms (their first initials), and motifs to set their theme, starting with their save the dates and invitations, and carrying through to their programs and seating cards.
Sharing the Costs
Wedding expenses are no longer the exclusive responsibility of the bride's parents but frequently are shared by the couple, and even the groom's parents. Understanding the financing is one key to defining who the hosts are -- an essential piece of any wedding invitation.
High Tech Weddings
The internet plays a growing role in registries, vendor selection, and even invitations. Wedding websites are the perfect place for photos of the couple, travel information for the wedding, and registry links. For some events, such as bachelor/ette parties or showers, an e-mailed invitation among close friends who all use e-mail regularly could be convenient and appropriate, but e-mailing wedding invitations and thank-you notes is still an etiquette faux pas -- paper please!
Save the Dates
Save the date cards are fast turning from a trend into a tradition. It's not necessary for save the dates to match the other wedding stationery themes, making them the perfect place for couples to get as creative as they like. Mail to guests as soon as the wedding date is known (the location may also be included), but know that any guest who receives a save the date must receive a wedding invitation.
Variations in Color
Traditional white or ecru still reign, but color is blooming not only in bouquets and floral arrangements but also in brides' and grooms' attire, reception decorations, and invitations and announcements. Once taboo, black-bordered wedding invitations can be quite chic -- just keep the typeface jaunty to avoid somber references.
Involved Grooms
Grooms are now as likely as brides to be active participants in wedding planning and decision making. Couples often take mutual responsibility for everything from choosing the guest list to financing to writing thank-you notes.
New Invitation Wording
Invitation wording is no longer bound to the confines of tradition. Any wording that a couple deems to be respectful of their guests and true to themselves will be fine. As a practical matter, invitations should read as a correct grammatical statement, and should include all information guests will need to know, such as who is hosting, the date, time, and location, and how to reply. To see examples of non-traditional invitation wording, click here.
Encore and Family Weddings
Nearly forty-five percent of today's weddings are "encore" events, meaning that the bride, groom, or both have been married before. More remarrying couples with children actively involve them in the ceremony. This can be reflected beautifully in the invitation and program wording, setting the family tone for guests. Click here to read more about encore weddings.
Reply Cards and E-mail RSVPs
Once unheard of, reply cards are a convenient way to encourage guests to respond, and to keep track of their responses. Be sure to stamp and address the reply envelopes. Requesting wedding replies via e-mail or phone is fine. Add this information below the RSVP on an invitation. Providing an alternate method to e-mail (snail mail or phone) is considerate of those who aren't comfortable with or don't use email. Read more about reply cards here.
Timeless Traditions
Some traditions never go out of style. A few that hold true: No mention of gifts, even "no gifts, please," is made on a wedding invitation (sharing a wedding website on an enclosure is fine, and that site may offer registry information). While attire information such as "black tie" may appear on a reception invitation, it is not printed on a wedding invitation -- the style of the invitation and the time of the ceremony should tell guests what they need to know.

CATEGORIES MoviesRemember when American Pie first came out, and people couldn't get enough of "It" girls Mena Suvari, Shannon Elizabeth and Tara Reid? Thirteen years later, those three lovely ladies have largely fallen off the map (unless you count Reid's frequent mentions in gossip mags for her, um, unusual antics). Meanwhile, endearing nerd Alyson Hannigan has been steadily building a rather impressive career to become, arguably, the most successful of all the American Pie alum.
Hannigan had already built up a loyal fan base when Pie came out in 1999, thanks to her role as Buffy's trusty sidekick Willow on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She showed fans a completely different side of her as the sex-crazed band geek Michelle in American Pie. (Shy Willow would never throw herself at Jason Biggs like that!)
Since Pie (and Buffy), Hannigan has had memorable guest spots on shows like the cult classic Veronica Mars and That '70s Show before landing the role of lovable Lily Aldrin on the hugely popular How I Met Your Mother. She may not have decorated countless covers of men's mags like Elizabeth, or starred in one of the most memorable scenes in contemporary movie history like Suvari's sultry rose fantasy sequence in American Beauty, but Hannigan has proven that sometimes slow and steady does win the race.
While Elizabeth, Suvari and Reid may have all sizzled then quickly fizzled, Hannigan isn't the only Pie alum to go on to enjoy a long and steady acting career. With that in mind, we've compiled a completely unscientific ranking of the most successful American Pie alumni. (Assuming that success is measured by actually working, and not just getting media exposure that may or may not be related to acting. Based on pure exposure, Reid would win, no contest.)
1. Alyson Hannigan. As outlined above, Hannigan's ability to bring memorable characters to life has served her well over the years, from Buffy to Pie to How I Met Your Mother.
2. John Cho. Even after finding huge success as Harold Lee in the Harold & Kumar movies, Cho made the time to reprise his role of "MILF Guy #2" (not even #1!) in American Reunion. With roles in Star Trek, Kitchen Confidential and Total Recall also under his belt, Cho should probably rank higher than Hannigan on this list. He was bumped to the #2 spot only because his role, while memorable, was so fleeting in the original American Pie.
3. Eddie Kaye Thomas. Since bedding Stifler's mom in American Pie, the suave Mr. Finch has been popping up everywhere from the Harold & Kumar movies to 'Til Death to How to Make it in America. (Bonus points for playing Steve's nerdy pal Barry for eight seasons and counting on American Dad.)
4. Seann William Scott. Ah, Stifler. When Pie first came out, Scott probably got the most buzz out of all the male co-stars. Since then, he's gone on to have some pretty memorable roles in flicks like Old School, Role Models, and, most recently, the critically revered Goon. His brief stint in rehab was just a bump in the road.
5. Chris Klein. Klein's role in the cult classic Election helped him narrowly edge out Jason Biggs. His recent role as the meathead boyfriend on hilarious Tv show Wilfred didn't hurt, either.

Rattlerettes Fall To Jacksonville In Five Games
Oct. 26, 1999
Tallahassee, Fla. - A stunned FAMU crowd of 81 witnessed the first real "dog fight" in Gaither Gym for the Rattlerettes this season. FAMU entered the match undefeated at home and had easily put the last four competitors away, but they lost to the Jacksonville Dolphins 3-2 (15-3, 8-15, 15-9, 11-15, 15-10) on Tuesday night.
This was a huge upset for the Rattlerettes who had defeated the Dolphins earlier in the season in a three set match. After taking the Dolphins for granted in the first game, the Rattlerettes received the first real wake-up call of the year as they lost 15-3 and posted a team -.045 kill percentage. Re-focused and seemingly ready to play, the Rattlerettes posted 19 kills in 40 attacks (.345) in game two, while forcing the Dolphins to commit 12 attack errors in 38 attempts (-.026). Unfortunately that would be the best game for the Rattlerettes in the match as the Dolphins "out-killed," "out-digged," "out-served" and "out-blocked" FAMU.
Freshman outside hitter Anisha Nicholson posted her fourth double-double on the season with 17 kills and 18 digs. Jessica Sattler, sophomore outside hitter, chipped in her own double-double with 10 kills and 10 digs. Reneeka Gause, senior middle blocker, continued to wow the crowd as she slammed 13 kills in 39 attempts (.231) with four digs and three blocks.
The Dolphins provided tough competition for the Rattlerettes as they posted a team .210 attack percentage with 68 kills (13.6 per game), 62 digs (12.2 per game) and 10 blocks. The team was paced by sophomore outside hitter Carrie Arago who lead all players with 21 kills in 45 attempts (.267) and 16 digs. She was aided by senior outside hitter Kelly Hickman who had 19 kills in 36 attempts (.361), 11 digs and five blocks. Sophomore setter Carrie Bosworth also guided the team's win with 38 assists and 14 digs.
Jacksonville will return to action Saturday, October 30th at 7:00 when they host UCF in a showdown of conference undefeated teams.

Iowa City Hip Hop on the RISE
When you go out to the bars in Iowa City you mostly hear, classic rock, top 40 pop, commercial rap, or pop infused rap mixes. Most of the shows at the Iowa City performance venues like Blue Moose, Gabes', and Yacht Club mostly have local electronic dub step Djs or alternative rock acts, if not a big name underground act is in town. Within the past two years, the Iowa City Hip Hop scene has emerged. Five years ago there were only a few local hip hop acts that had shows and a following, for example Mike Page and Zeaphy. However, since those two artists have moved away from Iowa City and occasionally visit to do a show, a new list of Iowa City hip-hop artists have been emerging.
Hip Hop acts like V.O marley, Bam Musik, Shakes, EmDuBai, WDGAF Music, Marq Divine, J Bizzle, and the list goes on. All these artists have been releasing mixtapes, videos on YouTube, doing their own shows and opening for big rap acts like Big Sean, Big Krit, Kid Ink, DJ Unk, Twista, Wiz Khalifa, Machine Gun Kelly, and more. Most of these are solo rappers who collaborate on tracks and embrace that it is a new hip hop scene in Iowa City. When artists Shakes was asked how do he stand out from other artists in the city, he said, " It's 9 billion people in the world right? If everyone be themselves, they'll be unique…that's what I do be myself". "Even though there are a list of artists in Iowa City and Cedar Rapids, each act literally has it own sound, and brand behind it," said James the Barber, founder of Chop Shop Music.
The Hip Hop scene in Iowa City has got so big that music producer and promoter Tyrell Thornton opened up Elite Sound and Design Studios (ESD studios) downtown Iowa city in the heart of the pedmall. According the Thornton, He saw it as a good opportunity to also attract local artists and big name acts on the road to come get great quality studio sessions while traveling or touring through Midwest. Thornton and partner Andre Wright, owner of Tailgate Bar, opened the studio about three months ago and have been thriving with artists studio sessions everyday starting at $25 a hour. Wright is over the design part, which design and sell clothes, hats cards, websites, flyers, and more.
Another person behind the scenes involved with Iowa City Hip Hop is concert promoter Brandon Miller. Miller brought big names like Dj Unk, and Kid Ink, and managed acts like Bam, Zeaphy, and Mike Page who led them to open for Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean, Machine Gun Kelly, and more. Recently, he had a through the 1st Annual Iowa City Talent show, which had a list of performers and a huge freestyle cypher. "Its unreal like 5 years ago it wasn't 20 rappers in the whole state, today its like 20 rappers in one show…" which he's referring to the Talent showcase at Gabes in Iowa City. Miller who also partners with (ESD studios) stated that's he working on bringing Twista in the spring and plan to start having Wasted Wednesdays' at Gabes starting in January to allow more hip-hop and R&B to heard and seen in Iowa City. Its not just the new list of artists that adds to the hip hop scene, other contributors like DJ Pat and DJ Commando keep the state of Iowa fusing with good Hip Hop and & R&B in the club, Parties, concerts, mixtapes, and radio.
Today Iowa City can be taken seriously when it comes down to hip-hop, also becoming an official stop for several mainstream artists to visit. According to Miller 'I can't wait to see what happens next" For more info on the Iowa City Hip hop scene check out artists videos and music at www.xklradio.com and get a recording session started today at esdstudios.com

Jay-Z pays debt to Brooklyn
Jay-Z Comes Home to repay a debt to Brooklyn" is an article found on nytimes.com that cover the first concert from Hip Hop Mogul Jay-Z on the opening night of brand new Barclay Center in Brooklyn. The Barclay Center is the new home to the NBA's Brooklyn Nets formally the New Jersey Nets. Brooklyn native Jay-Z is the perfect candidate to open the Barclay Center giving that he's a small owner of the team who adds to the branding of the team.
The concert is the first out of eight shows for Jay-Z at the Barclay center. The article describes the energy, activities, and details to the show including the constant tribute theme to Brooklyn. In addition to the article are map graphs of the Barclay arena inclu"ding the floor plans of the arena via the event. For example, a map if it was a concert, basketball game, or hockey. Its give an inside look including where special places of the arena. The article also has a slideshow of the opening night of the arena. The photos including outside view of arena with fans, protestors, police, a picture of the new team merchandise, a look at the sweets sold at the famous Brooklyn Junior's restaurant, and of course of Jay-Z on stage.
This seems like a human interest piece, but also timely only because the Barclay center has recently opened and the NBA season has started with The Brooklyn Nets in full stride with a new team roster. The proximity is relevant to New Yorkers especially Brooklynites. This article effectively relevant to hip-hop fans that is inspire by Jay-Z. Who came from crime growing up to better himself and capitalize on what he learned in the past, in the streets, and become financially successful enough to add to his brand by help bring a team and arena to his home city.

News: Nas Says It Ain't Hard To Tell He Hearts Kanye West, "He's Entertaining All Audiences & Keeping It Hip-Hop"
Wednesday, Jan 12, 2011 11:15AM
New York rap veteran Nas recently shared his admiration toward Kanye West and detailed what positive contributions he feels the G.O.O.D. Music leader has injected into hip-hop.
Speaking on rap stars like Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross, Nas stated West has been able to push the bar for urban music while still representing hip-hop.
"Nicki Minaj, Drake, [Rick] Ross and Kanye just came to just kill it off," Nas said in an interview. "You know, they did they thing. They kept this thing alive. Man, you know, if [my music didn't inspire other artists] then I didn't do what I was supposed to do. I know what I did. People like Kanye is brilliant, so when Kanye is out there doing his thing, he's entertaining all audiences and he's keeping it hip-hop at the same time. Nobody does that but him." (Rap Fix)
Last month, Nicki Minaj discussed the influence West has had on her music.
"When it came to me putting my [Pink Friday] album out, I was like 'I can't have an album without Kanye. He has to be a part of it.' He's become my mentor, he gives me advice, he hits me, takes random pictures off-line and says 'Oh this is a good picture of you.' He's really into fashion so he's a good person to have a well-rounded conversation with." (RWD Mag)
In summer 2010, Drake discussed his admiration for Mr. West as well.
"I'm very much looking forward to the Kanye West [My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy] album because I need to be scared and inspired for my second joint," Drake to radio personality Funkmaster Flex. "That ['Power'] record just had to happen. Kanye's a genius and I'm super excited for the rest of the album because I've heard some things that people haven't heard." ("Sucker Free")
Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy solo album is currently maintains a prominent slot on the sales chart.
Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy received a 14-slot boost to No. 5 with 58,400. Heading into his seventh week, Yeezy's comeback LP has moved 882,200 units. (SOHH Sales Wrap)

Manchester man killed in Auburn snowmobile accident
Officials confirmed the victim was Keith Ryan Jr., 41.<br/<br/>
Auburn Fire Chief Bruce Phillips said emergency responders were on the scene within minutes after the accident and performed CPR on the man. He was taken by ambulance to Elliot Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, the chief said.
The boy was seriously injured and also taken to the Manchester hospital.
The man and the boy were both wearing helmets, but sustained serious injuries to other parts of their bodies, according to Fish and Game.
Fish and Game officials said the pair were riding together on a single snowmobile around 3:30 p.m. in Front Park. According to witnesses, the two hit a bump causing the machine to accelerate rapidly. Both were ejected from the machine and thrown onto rocks. The machine also continued into a rock, launching it about 72 feet through the air and into a small brook, authorities said.
The father and son were riding with another friend who was behind them on a separate snowmobile when the accident occurred. The friend called 911. Two nearby fishermen also witnessed the accident and ran over to help and stood by until rescuers arrived on scene.
Auburn police and fire departments, Derry Fire and Rescue, Manchester Water Works and NH Fish and Game Conservation Officers responded.
"This incident serves as a reminder for all riders to use due care and caution at all times when operating snowmobiles and" off highway recreational vehicles, said Conservation Officer Geoffrey Pushee.

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer focused on the future in his annual State of the City address, and called for Kentucky's legislature to help out with two initiatives to aid the city's budget woes.
Fischer touched on three key areas in his State of the City Address Thursday afternoon -- jobs and economic development, city government, and how city leaders are planning for the future. He called for the state legislature to amend Kentucky's constitution to allow cities and counties to impose a sales tax of up to one percent to pay for local projects for a specific period of time, and asked for reform of pension costs that have been taking larger bites out of the city's budget.
Regarding jobs and economic development, the mayor said, "We're particularly focused on attracting higher-paying jobs, jobs that are going to keep our best and brightest people here in Louisville."
He said workers have to have the technical skills to compete in the 21st Century. He mentioned computer coding and sales training programs that have been developed within the last six months.
Fischer said the city and the state are also developing large tracts of land in west Louisville, hoping to attract businesses there.
The city's summer jobs program is another priority.
"You've got to give the kid a chance!" Fischer said.
He also asked local businesses to hire young people for the summer or to make a donation -- $2,500, he said, will sponsor a young person in a summer job. The goal is to hire 800 young people over the summer.
[Previous story: City working on summer jobs program]
When it comes to city government, Fischer pointed out that it has reduced unscheduled overtime by about 18 percent, and has placed workers who cannot do their regular jobs because of injuries into lighter duty, allowing them to return to work. That has saved nearly 9,000 lost hours and nearly $125,000 since the program began in August.
The mayor also mentioned his push to reclaim abandoned properties and get them back on the market, and to move as many services to the Internet as quickly as possible. "We want to be easy to do business with," he said, pointing out the introduction of a new mobile app for 311 service requests, online applications to file taxes, get permits, and track crime.
Louisville's website was recently named the best metro website.
[Previous story: New Louisville Metro website designed for easier access to info]
Looking ahead, Mayor Fischer said the city's strategic plan is to build around five major objectives -- delivering excellent city services, dealing with budget issues, taking job creation to the next level, investing in people and neighborhoods, and creating plans for a "vibrant future."
Working to achieve those goals, the mayor said, means tackling such projects as establishing at least 1500 new and rehabilitated affordable housing units by 2018, diverting 90 percent of the waste from landfills within 30 years, and increasing recycling by 25 percent in three years.
"I've turned into a city government nerd," the mayor said. "I never thought I would be excited about sewer systems and water supplies, and now I am!"
The mayor also called for Louisville to become one of the nation's safer large cities, announcing a goal of reducing crimes such as assault, murder, rape, and theft by three percent a year. He praised Louisville Metro Police Chief Steve Conrad for his accomplishments in his first year on the job.
In considering the longer view of how the community should advance, the mayor touted his Vision Louisville initiative. It's looking at issues such as using Louisville strong medical resources to position the city as a leader in aging care and health research, how the NuLu concept could spread to other neighborhoods, encouraging an expansion of tourism, and continuing cooperation with the city of Lexington to promote economic development.
[Previous story: NuLu festival honors East Market St. revitalization]
Mayor Fischer said the local option sales tax -- which would only take effect if voters approve it -- would generate $90 million a year. He said that money could fund a project on the scale of Waterfront Park every year. Any such project, the mayor said, would be detailed and subject to community debate before it was voted upon. He mentioned roads, infrastructure, parks, and public transportation as possible projects the money would go for.
"This is the ultimate Democracy-driven tool," the mayor said, "to help us compete with cities like Austin, Denver, Oklahoma City, and other places that already have this option and are investing more nimbly and more often than we are in their quality of place."
Yesterday, Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear endorsed the local option sales tax, but it's not yet clear whether the legislature will take up the issue this year.
Fischer also called for reform of the state pension system, saying pensions are taking an ever-increasing percentage of the city budget. When Metro Government was formed, he says, six percent of the general budget was spent on pensions. Today it's 15 percent.
"Please, talk to your state senators, state representatives, and give them the courage to have fundamental reform of our pension problem." He says it's become more difficult to provide city services because of the pension problem.
[Previous story: Mayor Fischer asks state lawmakers for pension reform]
The mayor says the city has made great progress on its budget deficit, bringing it down from $25 million to about $13 million to $14 million. It's a problem he says didn't come about in two years and won't be solved in that time, either.
The mayor also says the city is "getting things done and taking care of business," mentioning the upcoming construction of the Ohio River Bridges as just one example.
He also praised the adding of three new regional libraries, including the Southwest Regional library, which he said will be a grand addition to that part of town.
Fischer said he's enjoying his capacity to make proclamations about Louisville, whether it's a day to wear red to honor U of L or how compassionate the city is. The mayor closed his address by encouraging people to talk up the city and its advantages at any opportunity.
Mayor Fischer has continued to make use of social media. A staff member tweeted the address live on Twitter, and the full address was to be posted on Facebook afterward.
The State of the City was held at the African American Heritage Center, which Fischer praised as an excellent venue for business meetings and other gatherings.

Obama isn't just fiddling while Rome burns - he's pouring gas on the fire.
The country has a SPENDING problem.

Yet all this poor excuse for an incompetent Amateur-in-Chief has delivered in his time is office are demagoguing campaign speeches and MORE SPENDING.
$1 TRILLION in additional ObamaScare costs lumbered on the back of the American middle class.
Worse, now we have Obama's "balanced" plan actually counting hundreds of billions of new revenues from taxes, fees and rebates as "spending reductions."
The man is a pathological LIAR - worse than Nixon. And he's destroying the country.

November's economic indicators show slight improvement
By City News Service
After three flat months, San Diego's Index of Leading Economic Indicators climbed slightly last month, it was announced Tuesday.
The 0.3-point uptick was the first climb since July, led by a sharp decrease in the number of initial claims for unemployment insurance, which fell below 20,000 in a month for the first time since September 2008, according to University of San Diego professor Alan Gin. There was also a slight increase in the number of non-farm jobs, he said.
The other trend that pushed up the San Diego index was an improvement in the national economy for the fifth straight month, according to Gin, with USD's Burnham-Moores Center for Real Estate.
He said small national gains should continue into the new year but won't lead to major increases in the number of jobs.
There were also slight increases in prices for San Diego stocks and consumer confidence.
"Most of those increases have been relatively small, indicating that consumers are optimistic, but only cautiously so," Gin said. "It will take significant improvement in the labor market and the unemployment rate before consumer confidence really begins to surge."
A sector that continues to be slow is residential construction, he said. The number of permits taken out for residential real estate fell sharply and is on pace for the second-lowest level since 1973, which is how far back his
records go, according to Gin.
While the gain for the San Diego index was small, the indicators have not fallen in 20 straight months, Gin said.
