NBC and FOX presented their programming for 2013 in New York City on Monday evening.
Alexis Bledel: Almost blending into the FOX background, the 'Mad Men' actress wore a scoop-neck Oscar de la Renta dress in a colour that can be best described as Tiffany-blue. Opting for comfort, Alexis styled her look with gold Cynthia Vincent gladiator flats.
Amy Poehler: It's not often we see Amy wearing something so colourful. Her summery Theia dress was styled with electric-blue Jimmy Choo pumps.
Minka Kelly: Adding a bit of spice to the red carpet, the actress opted for a sexy one-shoulder printed frock with simple styling which included black strappy sandals.

A south suburban woman who claimed she accidentally shot her husband in the face as they were "playing" with a new gun in their kitchen faces felony charges for originally lying about the incident, according to police.
Desiree Cook called Calumet City police at 7:42 p.m. Wednesday and said her husband had been shot in the head by someone in the backyard of their home in the 300 block of Paxton Avenue in Calumet City, according to police.
Cook told police that her common law husband, Demetrius M. Marshall, staggered back inside after being shot and then collapsed in the kitchen, a release from police said.
Marshall, 41, was taken to Ingalls Memorial Hospital, where he died at 8:11 p.m., according to the Cook County Medical Examiner's office. His death was ruled a homicide.
Cook, who had an outstanding warrant from Midlothian, originally made several inconsistent statements, but later confessed that it was she who shot Marshall as the two were "playing with a gun he recently purchased," police said.
She said she thought the gun was unloaded but it went off, striking him once in the face, police said. Cook also admitted hiding the gun and then making up the story about her husband being shot in the backyard to avoid getting into trouble.
She was charged with one count of concealment of a homicidal death, and one count of felony obstruction of justice, police said.
Bond was set at $10,000 for Cook Friday. She is next scheduled to appear in court March 6.
Police are investigating the murder of a homeless man who was beaten to death in an alley in Logan Square.

What benefits will I see by upgrading to a dedicated server?
I'm currently on a shared host and see an average bounce rate of 60-63% on about 100kUVs per month. I would like to cut this in half. What sort of benefit would I receive, if any, from upgrading to a dedicated server? Would my site load time even decrease at all?
I'm thinking about going with the basic dedicated plan:
As a separate question, I am thinking about having the site rebuilt in Ruby in order to improve user experience. I've heard that Ruby is a much slower language - would I just be taking step backwards?
I appreciate any advice you fellas can give me.

When looking for a new webhoster offering dedicated solutions, I recommend to ask for a test drive first. So you can see whether or not their services are meeting your requirements.
Regarding your question about Ruby: No language is "slower" than an other. It all depends upon the programming skills of the developer as well as the technical environment, the software later runs on.

Welcome to SitePoint!
I'm sure you're aware of the three general classes of hosting accounts (four if you consider "free hosting" where you're advertising the host): Shared, VPS and dedicated. Each has its own pros and cons with cost being a major determining factor.
Shared: Generally a use as much as you can (within limits imposed by the host for usage constraints), blacklisting for the SPAM sent by others on the shared e-mail system and lack of the ability to alter the Apache or PHP services (because they're affect others on the same server). Lowest cost.
WebHostingBuzz offers what I believe is an unique feature ("Specialized Hosting") in that they tailor some shared accounts to specific CMS packages (which are generally so memory intensive that they fail on shared servers). Check this out if you have problems with a CMS on another host.
VPS: Partitioned to allow changed to your Apache and PHP but the downside is that the dedicated RAM and CPU usage is limited because it's shared by the other VPS accounts on the same server. Moderate cost (adjustable UP depending on the dedicated RAM).
Dedicated: You "own" the server and are free to make any alterations you want. Obviously, the RAM and storage are fixed (but adjustable) on the server but there is no "burst" capability as there is with a VPS (when the shared accounts are relatively inactive). Expensive.
That's a simplistic run-down for you which I trust will help. From your limited information, I'd guess that you're in the nether world of a CMS overstepping your host's imposed limits (to allow other shared accounts to run, too). If that is the case, a look at WHB's Specialized Accounts may be in order. The alternative to that is a CMS with ample resources (far more than the minimum accounts out there) or a reasonably sized (remember, you're running the account management programs, control panel, Apache & PHP, etc., and storage must be monitored else your log files will quickly exceed storage), dedicated server.
I've posted my checklist for selecting a new host (a search of this board should find it - otherwise, ask for it to be repeated ... again) but, with three WebHostingBuzz accounts, I can heartily recommend them for their great hardware, excellent and knowledgeable support staff and very reasonable prices.
I would also echo Tobias' comments above.

A high bounce rate can also be the result of people finding exactly what they were looking for. When you find the information you need, you don't have to go through multiple pages of a site. I don't. I find what I need then I am done with the site and move on. A bounce rate can be very misleading.
At the very least, the original poster should test his load speed using Pingdom and see if the load speed is reasonable or not. A slow load speed can reduce page views. But that isn't the only factor contributing to a high bounce rate.

I have hosted websites on both dedicated and shared hosting. What I can tell you is that the difference is quite considerable.
I calculated that the difference is website load times improved by 6 times better. Also, you don't have other users using the server that might slow you down at peak times.
But a switching to a dedicated server is expensive so check the prices well before you make the leap. Also it depends, if you have a large amount of traffic it makes sense, otherwise, if you are not happy with your shared hosting service, try another one.

As this thread is ten months old, I imagine the OP has long since found a solution, so there's no point in reviving it now.
Thread closed.Don't serve your porridge and then go out for a walk.

The SW face of Mt Hull, along the east side of the northern Okanogan Valley, is a huge open area with many distinct cliffs and potential for thousands of routes. Most of these cliffs are on public lands (BLM and Forest Service), yet all the access is via private lands (except for the public Whistler Canyon trailhead to the north). There are several possible access points - the shorter more direct ones are by permission of landowner, on an individual basis only. Currently the only recommended public access is from the north (from Whistler Canyon Trailhead, turn right off of trail #100 after about 3/4 mile and head through the South Canyon for about a mile), or from the County Gravel pit about a mile south of Whistler Canyon Trailhead.
The established areas include (listed from the south to north);
The Far East - Remote wall east of Big Butte with great rock and the best route at Hull ("Lost World").
The Middle East - On the way to the Far East from Big Butte (undeveloped)
Big Butte - A wide variety of easy to moderate routes, sport, mixed and trad.
Lower Wall - A short pleasant crag with a few great routes on uniquely featured rock.
Bonsai Crag - Easy access, short and a bit crumbly but steep and fun.
West Wall - Moderate sport and mixed climbing, in a great location
The Nose - Easy to moderate climbing, sport, mixed and trad, with a short approach.
OTID Rock - "Oroville Tonasket Irrigation District" parcel just beside and north of the main orchard parking area. Close and fun.
5.13/Weeping Wall - The shortest approach and the hardest routes...
Boundary Wall - (undeveloped)
Hidden Valley - Isolated with great rock and mostly hard sport climbs
Flying Pig Wall - Easy climbs next to Turtle Island. A good shaded beginner crag.
Turtle Island - Beautiful location mostly moderate climbs, sport, mixed and trad.

Dan DiZio admits he wasn't exactly cutting the mustard all the time while attending .
But his time away from the classroom, spent along Roosevelt Boulevard in Philly, led him to making a lot of dough, both figuratively and literally.
DiZio, a 1990 BHS grad, is the president of , the largest Philly-style pretzel bakery with more than 100 franchises and 1,700 employees.
DiZio started selling pretzels for Kensington Soft Pretzel Factory when he was 11 years old.
"It was like an internship," he said. "The owner set me up on the corner of Rhawn and The Boulevard. "Whatever I sold I'd split 50-50. I was on Roosevelt Boulevard every day -- every weekend and after schools.
"In middle school my principal caught me selling pretzels on the corner," he said. "My father had died that year and he thought my mom was hurting for money and put me on the corner."
That wasn't the reason DiZio was out there. He was doing what he wanted and making $100 a day. All the while, he was dreaming of starting his own pretzel company.
Not long after graduating from East Stroudsburg University he and former college roommate Len Lehman were looking to do something different.
"We both hated our jobs," he said, "And I knew a lot about the pretzel business."
The problem was that no one was making pretzel-baking machines.
"I found one online in Florida and we rented a U-Haul and we drove down there," he said. "It was a 1930 model in the garage of a guy's house with a lawnmower on top of it and the price was $20,000."
DiZio said Lehman told him there was no way he was going to spend $10,000, especially since there was no way to check it out with a commercial electrical hookup.
"We actually left and I said, "You know, if we leave, we're going back to our jobs. I bet we can get the price down.' So we went back and started haggling at 11 in the morning and it was midnight and were still in the guy's garage. I think we wore him down. We wound up paying $11,500."
In May 1998, the partners opened up their pretzel factory on Frankford Avenue in the Mayfair section of Philly. DiZio spent $34,000, maxing out all his credit cards.
And right off the bat, there was a surprise for the planned wholesale venture that was selling 100 pretzels for $13.
"We were next to a famous deli (Moe's) and we couldn't keep up with the demand. There was a line that didn't go away until 5 in the afternoon," he said. "We'd drive to Sam's Club every night for flour ... and we were sleeping on flour bags in the store."
"We couldn't keep up, literally. We didn't even have a cash register," Dizio said while adding that they put their money into their aprons.
"We were working 21-hour days. It was a success and nightmare at same time."
So, they decided they needed to go the retail route and soon began to hire college friends to help and eventually run stores at different locations.
The rest, as they say, is history, with 130 stores in eight states now open. Recently, DiZio's success turned into some TV fame as he appeared, with died hair, a retainer and blue contact lenses on Undercover Boss. Not only did he get to return to his business roots, twisting and baking pretzels.
"It was great to see such dedicated employees. ... It was eye-opening. They put their life savings to sort of buy into my dream," he said.
In the end, DiZio gave a franchise to an employee struggling trying to raise two little girls.
The company's current effort is centered on opening Philly Pretzel Factories in amusement parks like Dorney Park along with malls. There will be one open at Franklin Mills Mall in about five weeks.
DiZio says simplicity is the key to the success of Philly Pretzel Factory.
"It's essentially one product, and everybody either loves or like pretzels. There are very few people who don't eat pretzels. Name another product that nobody doesn't like," said the 41-year-old father of two boys. "And the customers are from 2 years old to 100 years old. "

Have you seen fly tipping in your area? Report it now!
We are working alongside the Environment Agency on clamping down to try and reduce the amount of fly tipping in the Swale area.
Fly tipping is a scourge on the Kent countryside. It costs local authorities and the Environment Agency millions of pounds every year in clean up costs - money that could be put to much better use.
Anyone who creates waste has a duty of care to ensure that it is disposed of in an appropriate manner. This is just one example of how key partners are working together to educate, and advise householders and businesses of their responsibilities. By tackling the problem at source we will create a cleaner Kent
Builders and householders need to realise that waste is their responsibility and that they must use registered waste carriers to dispose of waste. If they don't, and their waste is fly tipped, they could face a court appearance and fines of up to £5,000 - just for trusting the wrong person with their waste. If we cut out the waste available to fly tippers, we can put them out of business.
If a waste carrier is legal, they will be registered with the Environment Agency. To check your waste carrier contact 08708 506506 (ask your carrier for their waste-carrier registration number) and request an instant waste carrier validation check. Or you can check on their website: Environment Agency. Tradesman and Waste Carriers who wish to become licensed waste carriers must register with the Environment Agency. The following video created by Recycling for Suffolk provides some useful tips on how to prevent fly tipping.
We has installed the first of two 'roving cameras' in Sheerness in a bid to tackle fly tipping in Sheerness.
The cameras will have the capability to be moved to target areas that have been highlighted as 'hot spots' for fly tipping, littering and dog fouling. Statistics show that a large number of fly tipping incidents take place in the Marine Town area resulting in the cameras being used in this area for the first time. The first camera has been installed at Unity Street (with the Junction of Jefferson Road). It will stay in this area as a deterrent to combat any form of anti-social behaviour.
Swale Borough Council's Cabinet Member for Environment and Rural Affairs, Councillor David Simmons said: "There is no excuse to illegally dump rubbish when there are easy collection options and local dump sites available. These cameras will help to prevent this which type of behaviour which can have a tremendous impact on our communities. We are confident that these cameras will help us to reduce those issues that residents have asked us to tackle. This shows our continuing commitment to help make Swale a better place."
The cameras have been primarily paid for through fixed penalty revenues for littering and fly tipping. Anyone found dumping waste in the alleyways will be investigated and they could receive a heavy fine.
On 19 June 2013, council environment wardens spent 90 minutes clearing dog mess in Sheerness. 314 bags were collected, 75% of which was cleared from the alleyways in Sheerness.
Anyone caught not cleaning up after their dogs, could face a fixed penalty charge of £80.00.
If you would like to report a case of fly tipping within Swale, please call us on 01795 417850.

Celebrity Burnley fans hoping to break derby curse
8:00pm Saturday 8th March 2014 in News
CELEBRITY Clarets fans will be glued to their TVs tomorrow as Burnley bid to break their derby hoodoo.
It is almost 35 years since the Clarets last tasted victory in an East Lancashire derby, but a win tomorrow will move them a step closer to a return to the Premier League.
Dave Fishwick, local businessman and star of Channel 4 series Bank of Dave, said: "I have been invited to watch the game but instead I'm going to be watching it at home with a mate with a couple of drinks.
"Had it not been on TV I would have gone in the box, but I can have just as much fun at home.
"I've got Burnley and Blackburn fans that work for me and there is a lot of banter and fun flying across the desk.
"It just shows that the two sets of fans can have a laugh about it without there being any trouble."
TV weatherman and keen Claret John Kettley said he will be watching the game at home in Lincolnshire.
"I'll be keeping a safe distance and watching it on TV," he said.
"I was at the Derby game last week but I can't make this one. I would take a draw. Blackburn will be like a wounded animal after last week's result at Bolton.
"Our home form is excellent and if we can keep drawing away and winning at home then we will be promoted."
Former Emmerdale star Richard Moore, who was born in Burnley but now lives in Cornwall, said: "I will be glued to the TV at home.
"It's a great chance to end that run without a win. It is always a big game against Blackburn but we are having a great season.
"I know a few Burnley fans in Cornwall, my local post office in run by a Burnley fan from Accrington."
Meanwhile Burnley fans will be tuning in from around the world.
A group of Clarets fans based in Melbourne, Australia, will be watching the game in the Charles Dickens Tavern, a popular haunt for live football, with several Rovers fans also likely to watch the match, which will kick off at 11.30pm local time, in the bar.
Several fans are also making long-distance treks to get back for the crucial Ewood Park derby.
Clarets fans in Gutersloh, in Germany, Murcia, in Spain, and Burgas, in Bulgaria, will be jetting in for the occasion.
Slightly closer to home fans are also making a special effort to be at the match from the Isle of Man and Belfast.

MPG is not that great but to be expected....it's a box!
Love This Car And Will Never Get Rid Of It! — Very versitle and can do everything that I need with it. Lots of room on the inside and easy to clean because there are no carpets. Perfect for those who have pets. Rear seats can be removed and you can put just about anything in the back! It does have some road noise and the MPG is not great but overall the best vehicle I have owned.

I had cruised before on the NCL Epic last year, from Miami to Barcelona, and although that cruise was great, travelling on Celebrity was even better!
The food on Celebrity was wonderful. Looked good and tasted good too, even the Oceanview buffet had a great variety of fresh food.
Silk Harvest, the oriental themed restaurant was so good we ate there twice. The orange chicken and green tea ginger parfait will be missed!
For something lighter, we dined at the Bistro on Five twice, the Tuscan Sun, Indian Summer and French crepes were delicious.
We also dined at the Murano on the last night of the cruise. The food was a treat. I had the Wellington style scallop and sea bass, my dining companions enjoyed the risotto and rack of lamb. Elan was our waiter, who made our dinner more special with his attentive service and fun stories.
Entertainment was fine, but the Epic offered more variety.
I also missed the water slides the Epic offered, and felt that the Spice H2O adults only section at the back of that ship worked better than the Equinox's glass enclosed solarium.
The Hot Glass show was interesting, I also enjoyed relaxing on the real lawn outside and, although the ship was full, the only time we felt crowded was during the muster drill.
Service was exemplary, pleasant and prompt, no matter where we went or who we spoke to.
I am already planning my next cruise and will definitely keep Celebrity high on my list!

Roanoke County leaders are talking trash -- trucks, that is. They say there's a real need to replace their aging fleet of garbage trucks with new ones. However, budget constraints have prevented that from happening -- until now.
Roanoke County currently has $6.4 million in bond debt. Since those bonds were first issued, interest rates have dropped almost 2 percent. That's why county leaders want to refinance those bonds -- a move they say would save about $508,000.
They would then use that money to purchase two new garbage trucks.
The county currently has 12 trucks, though General Services Director Anne Marie Green says it's rare that all 12 are up and running on any given day. She says most days, nine or fewer are out providing daily pickup service because they're constantly breaking down and having to go in for maintenance.
Based on the amount of work they do, she says ideally the trucks should be replaced every seven years.
"These trucks pick up trash on top of Twelve O'Clock Knob," said Green. "It's not like Virginia Beach or Alexandria where it's nice and flat. So they chug up and down the mountains, they stop in subdivisions every 50 feet to pick up cans."
Because of budget constraints, they've been forced to make them last longer. The oldest truck in the fleet is from 2001. Most are from 2004 - 2006, nearing that retirement age.
Green says new trucks would help ensure they can continue to provide the highest level of service possible.
"We're really thrilled," said Green. "I was so happy when the County Administrator, the Finance Director, and the Board talked about over the last several months. And everybody agreed yes, we needed some new trucks and this was a really good way to make it happen."
The Board of Supervisors will still have to give its final stamp of approval on the plan before the trucks could be purchased. That vote will take place on July 23.
County leaders say they're also developing a long-term plan to help finance fleet replacement.
