(NBC) -- Adam Andrew and Megan Marrer awoke to the sound of sirens early Friday morning and a bullet inside their apartment after the deadly confrontation between police and the Boston Marathon bombing suspects went down only a block away."We found a hole in the living room wall and a bullet on the floor that clearly had been from the crossfire of the firefight, the gunfight, on the street earlier," Marrer told TODAY's Savannah Guthrie via Skype.The couple have been on edge since witnessing the frenzy surrounding the manhunt for the bombing suspects, one of whom was killed and the other still on the loose. The Boston-area residents have been on lockdown, told to remain inside their homes until further notice. Outside their windows, heavily armed agents patrol the streets.Watch special live coverage from NBC NewsAndrew said he's been up since 2:30 am."It's been unnerving, but having police presence has calmed me down a little bit," Andrew said."It's been a long morning," Marrer said.

NEW YORK (AP) — Adult fans of J.K. Rowling can rejoice: She has a new novel coming, for grownups.
The kids will have to wait and see.
The author of the mega-selling "Harry Potter" series has an agreement with Little, Brown in the United States and Britain to publish her first novel for grownups. The title, release date and details about the novel, long rumored, were not announced Thursday.
Her seventh and final Potter story came out in 2007. Some 450 million copies of the Potter stories are in print, and a billion-dollar movie franchise, starring Daniel Radcliffe as the young wizard, ended last year.
Rowling's Potter books were published by Bloomsbury in Britain and Scholastic in the U.S. Rowling will now share the same publisher with Stephenie Meyer, whose "Twilight" series at least partially filled the gap opened by the conclusion of the Potter stories.
"Although I've enjoyed writing it every bit as much, my next book will be very different to the Harry Potter series, which has been published so brilliantly by Bloomsbury and my other publishers around the world," Rowling said in a statement released by Little, Brown. "The freedom to explore new territory is a gift that Harry's success has brought me, and with that new territory it seemed a logical progression to have a new publisher. I am delighted to have a second publishing home in Little, Brown, and a publishing team that will be a great partner in this new phase of my writing life."
Rowling's agent, Neil Blair, would not disclose financial details of the deal but said Thursday there had been no auction.
"As her new book is for a different audience, and marks a new literary direction for her, it made sense to separate the two and for her new book to be launched by a different publisher," said Blair.
In a statement, Bloomsbury said its 15-year relationship with Rowling "remains stronger than ever" — and new editions of the seven Potter novels were on the way.
In the U.S., Scholastic spokeswoman Kyle Good noted that Scholastic didn't publish adult books.
"We will continue to publish her children's books in the U.S.," Good said Thursday.
Any Rowling book would seem a guaranteed million seller, although it's questionable that her new novel will have the same mass appeal as Potter. Adult authors from E.B. White to Sherman Alexie have nicely managed the transition to writing for young people, but once a writer is defined as a children's author, the transition can be tricky.
Winnie the Pooh creator A.A. Milne, a successful playwright in his early years, once confessed that he was forced to say "goodbye to all that" after his beloved books about the bear and friends. Margaret Wise Brown, author of the classic "Goodnight Moon," tried for years to write stories for The New Yorker.
Daniel Handler of "Lemony Snicket" fame and Ann Brashares, author of the "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" novels, are among the recent popular writers for children who have had limited success writing for adults.
But Rowling does begin with one advantage: The Potter books had an enormous following among readers of all ages, and she is widely credited with revealing to publishers that children's books were no longer just for the young. Meyer's vampire novels and Suzanne Collins' "Hunger Games" trilogy also have caught on with both parents and their kids. Meyer herself wrote an adult book, "The Host," a best-seller in 2008.
Beth Puffer, director of the Manhattan-based children's bookseller Bank Street Bookstore, said she'd have to see the novel before deciding where or whether to stock it.
"I assume if it's written for adults, it's not appropriate for children," said Puffer, who added that she might stock the book in a section for ages 14 and up. "There are a lot of former children and young adults who grew up with Harry Potter and they would likely be an audience for her new book. You also have all the adults who loved the Potter books."
Rowling's novel will be available in both print and electronic formats. The author held out for years on allowing the Potter books to come out digitally but announced in 2011 that Potter e-books would be sold through her own "Pottermore" website. The books were supposed to become available last fall but have been delayed until sometime this year.
Jill Lawless in London contributed to this report.

Roy "Grizzly Adams" Nelson talks with Ariel Helwani about his epic beard and mullet.
Haha he's pretty hammered
this guy is horrible, i dont know why they keep putting him in main cards. all he has going for him is being able to take a punch, other than that he is boring and slow.
Damn Fariel, where's Rampage when u need him? Someone needs to constantly check this annoying fool. let's see him vs Cyborg!!!!!! I would pay for that:)
Will they seriously allow him in the cage like that?
Nelson in now broke,his wife kicked him out the house,he currently leaves under a bridge,his fighting for a meal this Sat,poor boy Roy!!!!!!!
That really is one ultra extravagant beard!
Ariel Helwani is in love.
Wow his gut is trimmed down alot you can even tell with the shirt on.
I still say pert plus or burger king should sponsor roy.
Did he get fatter? lol or is it just the hideous beard
Ariel normally gives good interviews… this one was awkward. Hopefully all bullshit "looks" aside – I hope this turns out to be a war.
Lord of the rings.
When did Roy go homeless?
Roy nelson interview? I thought it was a CNN clip of Osama Bin Laden !!!
Roy is cool,does things his way,and would kick all your asses.
Hey bruno, thanks again for the great work you do. Quick question, have you or any other users noticed that the ariel helwani aol videos seem to always freeze up or crash my android phone (htc evo 4g), or just dont play properly. just curious and wondering if it was just me or if anyone else has noticed this.
Bruno: They (AOL Vids) play choppy on my android phone but never have crashed it.
Whats with all the hate? Dude just wanted to grow out his beard. IS he not attractive enough for you guys?
I swear i saw a squirrel in there
He looks like he has been living in a cave
Inshape country vs Black Terminator
i like nelson as a fighter. well rounded, AND with a diverse skill set. big is beautiful.
Cro cop going to trash him
that beard is glorious
Another awkward Ariel interview
Ariel was wanting to hook up on Roy's chubbie! f**!
aww come on.. how can you not love roy!!
He would have made a great 80′s WWF superstar… Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Hill Billy Jim and Big Country.
love roy nelson he is the man
Thanks for the reply bruno…….WAR ROY!
Bruno: No problem
God amongst men.
I will hate to see Santa Claus ending Crocop´s carrer
people must have sticks crammed up their asses, i mean how could you not like a guy like roy nelson..I think its awesome to see someone who doesnt look like a carbon copy yolked out to the max fighter with a shaved head and arm band tattoo. I'd bet on Nelson winning…if JDS couldnt put him away I doubt Mirko can.
Fear the beard
That beard is very very well formed Warrrr Nelson
You can't help but like Roy after watching this video he's a cool dude who says it how it is, despite Ariel trying to be a d*** as usual… Na Im just kidding I like them both
All the haters on Roy would probably get destroyed by the guy, yet the keyboard warriors keep on… he does look kind of trim now must have got tiered of being a punching bag like last fight.
Go Big Country the hell with haters!
I like both Roy and Mirko. Both are getting up there in age, but it will be a good fight nonetheless.
Wow, Tank Abbot got a big beard.

Cooperstown Crier
---- — Otsego County Republicans have fielded a candidate to challenge Rep. John Kosmer, D-Fly Creek — Rick Hulse Jr. of Fly Creek, a financial consultant and the president of the Cooperstown Country Club.
Hulse said in a statement that his experience as a businessman will help guide him as he pursues policies that benefit taxpayers. If elected, he said that he will accept no public benefits and will turn over his $10,500 annual salary to a local charity.
"With 20 years as a management consultant helping organizations of all sizes, I believe that I will bring a fresh perspective to tackling important issues such as economic development, financial oversight and easing the burden on small businesses and taxpayers," Hulse said.
Otsego County GOP Chairwoman Sheila Ross said she believes Hulse will be an impressive candidate who will compete aggressively for Kosmer's seat. She said the Democrat "hasn't really done anything" since getting elected two years ago and "flip-flopped" on the decision to privatize the Otsego Manor nursing home.
As a candidate, Kosmer had said he opposed privatization. When the Manor's deficits spiraled, he and most board members opted to try to sell the home. Kosmer later came up with a plan to keep the manor as a public facility. That plan was rejected, however, when he was unable to garner enough support for pushing for union concessions and holding a public referendum on whether a sales tax increase should be considered to plug the Manor's fiscal gap.
Kosmer, an active member of the anti-fracking group Sustainable Otsego, said he sees Hulse as a "blank slate," adding: "I haven't heard that he's had any involvement with civic activities dealing with the welfare of Otsego County."
Hulse, in a statement, said: "My family has been involved in the communities of Cooperstown and the Town of Otsego for well over 100 years. I see my service on the County Board as the ability to give back not only as an experience professional, but as someone who cares deeply about our community."
The board is made up of seven Republicans and seven Democrats, though the GOP holds power under the system of weighted voting. But Democrats have said they believe they can capture control of the board in the November elections. Part of that strategy calls on keeping Kosmer as the District 8 representative and electing New Lisbon Town Board member Ed Lentz to the District 5 seat now held by Rep. Pauline Koren, R-Milford. Koren is not seeking re-election, and the Republican candidate for the seat is Jamie Waters.
Kosmer won his seat in November 2011 when he defeated the then-Republican incumbent, Jim Johnson of Cooperstown.
Hulse and his wife, Christine McBrearty-Hulse have one child, a son named Matthew. Hulse is the managing director of the XONITEK Group of companies where he oversees operations and client relations worldwide, according to a press release from his campaign.

OMG! This is not a good news at all. We do hope that Qtel the #1 leading service provider for Blackberry service here in Qatar will not be affected with this issue. It will be a big loss for the people and a big loss for our current sales as well. Blackberry handheld phone are top of the list and #1 salable item every month and next is iPhone 3Gs. People are so gaga with the Blackberry Messenger features and I'm one of those people. It's one of the cost effective way to communicate with my friends. I don't use text messaging anymore. We all crossed our fingers for this.
Two Gulf states to ban some Blackberry functions
The UAE denies censorship is involved
Two Gulf states have announced bans on some functions of the Blackberry mobile phone, claiming security concerns.
The United Arab Emirates is to block sending e-mails, accessing the internet, and delivering instant messages to other Blackberry handsets.
Saudi Arabia is to prevent the use of the Blackberry-to-Blackberry instant messaging service.
Both nations are unhappy that they are unable to monitor such communications via the handsets.
This is because the Blackberry handsets automatically send the encrypted data to computer servers outside the two countries. – source

Tina Fey Has All the Answers
Few people leave Tina Fey speechless, unless they happen to be one of her all-time favorite funny ladies. "Years ago I was doing Saturday Night Live's 25th anniversary show," recalls Fey. "The studio was packed with big stars like Tom Hanks, Paul Simon, Sting, Elvis Costello -- everybody who was anybody at the time. But the only person who made me freeze in my tracks was Lily Tomlin. I had watched her on SNL when I was a kid. I walked backstage where she was rehearsing and when I saw her, I literally gasped." Fast-forward 14 years and Fey, who just wrapped the final episode of her Emmy-winning sitcom 30 Rock, is starring in the big-screen comedy Admission as an uptight college admissions officer -- and the daughter of a hippie feminist played by Tomlin. Thankfully, Fey was far less tongue-tied when the two connected -- via FaceTime -- to talk about confidence, getting what you want, and how they both learned to have the last laugh.In your new movie you play an admissions officer for Princeton. What was your own college experience like?
Fey: I went to the University of Virginia, but I applied to Princeton. I was a good student, but I was not quite Princeton material. I remember having an interview with an alum and I wore a long plaid skirt and a blue jacket. I didn't have polish like the private school kids. During the interview it came up that I didn't drive. I was like, "Yeah, I'm just not interested in driving." The person looked at me like, this kid is so lame. They wanted super-adventurous -- I didn't even want to drive a car.
Tomlin: When the people at Princeton find out they rejected Tina Fey, they're going to be gnashing their teeth.Did you have strong female role models growing up?
Fey: I was born in 1970, which was a somewhat lucky time. As a kid the message was all "Free to Be...You and Me" [based on the 1974 Marlo Thomas music video that preached girl power]. There was so much public talk about girls doing anything, girls playing Little League! Then we rolled all that into the Spice Girls. Of course now our empowerment is kind of twisted. It's like, Girls can do anything! You can profit from your own sex tape!
Tomlin: I've been disappointed by role models, but I also have never counted on somebody to be a role model because, politically, I could see people were fallible. They could be noble, and they could also be tragically sad and depressed. It's both liberating and sort of destabilizing because authority begins to not mean very much to you. When I realized my mother had been a baby it was all over for my mother.
Fey: [Laughs] What do you mean?
Tomlin: I found this picture of her when she was a baby. I thought, If my mother was a baby then that means my teacher was a baby. Everybody was a baby! It meant they were just like me.How do you both get what you want? Does humor play a role?
Fey: Humor is a great coping mechanism in real life. I know things are getting stressful if I lose my sense of humor in any situation. Part of being successful is being a good collaborator -- and being smart enough to find the right people to work with.
Tomlin: You have to know your sensibility. When you know what you like or what you want, it makes you appear very strong. It's just like you, Tina. You created your own work and made a place for yourself. All of that is shaped by your intelligence, but also by your sense of what is good.
Fey: It helps to trust your instincts.
Tomlin: That self-confidence also comes from the culture. Like Tina said, she was born in the '70s when there was all this fermentation of girl power. That influenced her generation.
Fey: You know what's interesting. I played the "Free to Be...You and Me" video for my daughter, Alice, who's 7, and it brought up things for her that just aren't issues anymore. The song talks about everything girls can do -- but she was looking at me like, I know, Mom. I know I can be president, so why are we singing a song about this?
Tomlin: I can understand that. She has listened to that song and thought, this is so retro.
Fey: She did go through a Disney princess phase, which I let happen because I figured it would gain too much mystique if I told her she couldn't. Then she went through a period where all she wanted to play was a game she called "Two girls fighting over the prince." Every night in the bathtub she'd have these two dolls do elaborate gymnastics and swimming shows and then the prince -- this plastic little gay prince who'd sit in the nude on the side of the tub -- would judge them, and choose one to be his wife.
Tomlin: Oh my God!
Fey: We don't play that game anymore.So how do you nurture confidence in your daughters? [Fey's second child, Penelope, is 1.]
Fey: One specific thing is I try not to speak badly about my own body or food things in front of them. And I never talk to them about their bodies in terms of anything but being healthy. Last winter Alice wanted to eat more and more holiday candy. I said, "Pace yourself, I don't want you to throw up." I said that because I was a big barfer as a kid. But our babysitter misheard me and she said, "That's right, you don't want to blow up. You don't want to get big and fat!" That's when you realize no matter how much you try to guide your children, they will always encounter other people's weird messages.Is your parenting style at all like your mom's?
Fey: I hope so. My parents did a good job making us feel safe but there were also expectations for us to be good and responsible people. One way I'm like my mom is I hover to see if my daughters eat what I cook. My mom used to always do that. If my brother and I liked something, she kept making it. There was a period in the late '70s when the world discovered ranch dressing. My mom started putting ranch on everything she made. Finally we were like, "Mom, cool it with the ranch!" She said, "But you like it!"Let's talk about criticism. How do you handle it?
Tomlin: When I was younger too much of my self-worth was invested in what other people thought. Mostly I cared what they said about my work -- I didn't care what they said about me personally. Though a critic once reviewed a movie I was in and said I was horse-faced. I didn't like that. Later on I saw him at a restaurant. I felt like walking over to him and saying, "Neighhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Fey: And shooting a strong stream of urine at him.
Tomlin: Exactly!
Fey: I find it unnerving when you come across something on the Internet that's hateful. You have to tell yourself to stop reading it, that it doesn't matter.Are you both natural risk takers or do you have to psych yourself up before you take on a challenge?
Fey: I'm very comfortable with certain kinds of risk that other people have fears about, like speaking in public or getting up on stage to improvise. But I would never bungee jump. I would never ski.
Tomlin: Psychological risk is more exhilarating. But I don't like physical danger, either.
Fey: Would you skydive?
Tomlin: I might, but only when I'm really really old and think, How long do I have anyway? Maybe then I'd be more excited about plummeting to earth.

A community says you only have to spend a few minutes with Talaya Haynes to completely brighten your day. Talaya is a senior at Clarksville High, who has cerebral palsy and epilepsy. With her beaming smile, the joy she brings to everyone every day led her student body to elect her their senior homecoming queen.
"I cannot express how exciting it is for her to be senior homecoming queen," said Nita Haynes, Talaya's mother.
"When we found out, I texted her mom and I was like, 'she got it,' " said Clarksville High student Mary Beth Cook. "I posted it online. I posted it on Twitter. I was so excited. I was like, 'yes!' "
"Talaya got down off the couch and tried to do a handstand," laughed Haynes.
Friday afternoon, Talaya joined the homecoming parade marching past Clarksville High with a beaming smile on her face. Friends who have been touched by the constant joy of one girl say they hope they've given some joy back.
"She deserved something to let her know how important she is to us ," said Cook.
"It's just a blessing to be part of her life," added godmother Carisa Webster. "When I got the news, I just got excited and started tearing up because she's not missing out on anything in her life. That smile is priceless. It's timeless."
"I'm so thankful and blessed people have been put in her life to encourage her, and to help her and include her," said Haynes.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
After tendering ashore, board an air-conditioned motor coach for your drive up to the village of Oia. It's known for picturesque views, cobblestone streets and beautiful mansions clinging to the cliffs above. Enjoy free time to stroll the narrow streets filled with quaint shops and cafés.
After about an hour, you will re-board your motor coach and proceed to the Archaeological Museum of Fira to view relics found from various excavations. Perhaps most impressive are those found at Akrotiri, a sophisticated society that disappeared thousands of years ago. Archaeological finds reveal the city at its zenith with plaster casts of furniture, stunning wall paintings, household equipment, bronze vessels, tools and weapons. Could this be the lost city of Atlantis?
Following the museum visit, you may take Santorini's famous cable car down to the old port, where you can re-board the tender and return to your ship.
Please note: As this excursion involves walking over uneven surfaces and inclines at several of the sights visited, it is not recommended for guests with walking difficulties. It is recommended that guests dress in casual clothing and wear flat, comfortable shoes. The excursion ends at Fira Town, where there is an approximately half-mile, uphill walk to reach the cable car station. The order of sights visited may vary.
NOTICE: All Oceania Cruises shore excursion fares are listed per person, and are subject to change and availability. Some tours are capacity controlled and may be withdrawn at any time without prior notice. Tour departure times are subject to change so please reference your actual tour ticket for the correct departure time.

Street-art fanatics and bloggers have been buzzing this week over new paintings that appear to be the work of the mysterious British graffiti master, Banksy.
Banksy's documentary, "Exit Through the Gift Shop" is currently nominated for an Oscar and some are wondering if he is setting the streets abuzz for this occasion. Whatever the reason may be, very few people are complaining.
Banky's first piece of work, dubbed "Crayola Shooter", can be seen in Westwood on the back on an Urban Outfitters building in the UCLA neighborhood.
Check out more of Banksy's work after the jump.

The skills are presented as "I" statements accompanied by descriptions of behaviours that demonstrate the possession of such skills. The Framework is intended to assist the design and development of resources to support the development of such skills in a variety of learning settings (school to adult), and to provide a common language in Scotland for all organisations involved in the delivery of careers information, advice and guidance. The publication gives advice on ways to implement the Framework.
Career Guidance in Germany
This brochure, published by the National Guidance Forum of Germany, gives an overview of the basic structure of the German guidance system especially for our partners in the European Union and beyond. In general, the German system provides access to educational and career guidance services for all citizens at any stage of their lives – whether they are in education or training, employed, unemployed or looking for continuing education. The structure of guidance provision reflects the German education and employment system with its shared responsibilities between the Federation, the Lander and the municipalities. Hence, the provision of career guidance is traditionally based on the distinction between educational guidance (Bildungsberatung) in the educational sector and vocational guidance (Berufsberatung) in the vocational training and employment sector. Cooperation across the sectors is in this context crucial. Beginning with an introduction into the German educational system, the brochure follows the life course describing guidance provisions in schools, vocational education, higher education, and for employment, unemployment and continuing education. Additional sections deal with guidance for special target groups and guidance through the internet. With chapters on quality and professionalism in guidance and on European cooperation, the brochure also considers systemic issues of professional development. Social and economic changes remain a permanent challenge for further developing lifelong guidance in the context of lifelong learning needs.
Bildungs- und Berufsberatung in Deutschland
Diese Broschüre gibt den ausländischen Partnern in der Europäischen Union und darüber hinaus einen Überblick über die Grundstruktur des Systems der Bildungs- und Berufsberatung in Deutschland. Für jeden Lebensabschnitt – sei es in Schule, Studium, Aus- und Weiterbildung, im Beruf oder bei Arbeitslosigkeit – bietet das deutsche Beratungssystem grundsätzlich allen Bürgerinnen und Bürgern Zugang zu Beratungsdiensten. Charakterisiert durch die geteilten Zuständigkeiten zwischen Bund, Ländern und Kommunen, die das deutsche Bildungs- und Beschäftigungssystem prägen, beruht das Beratungssystem traditionell auf der Unterscheidung zwischen Bildungs- und Weiterbildungsberatung im Bildungsbereich auf der einen und Berufsberatung für den Ausbildungs- und Beschäftigungssektor auf der anderen Seite. Bereichsübergreifende Kooperation und Vernetzung sind deshalb wesentlich. Nach einer kurzen Einführung in das deutsche Bildungssystem beschreibt die Broschüre die Beratungsangebote in Schule, Ausbildung und Hochschule, im Arbeitsleben und bei Weiterbildungsbedarf. Beratung für besondere Zielgruppen sowie Beratung über das Internet werden in eigenen Abschnitten näher betrachtet. Kapitel über Qualität und Professionalität und die europäische Kooperation in diesem Bereich berichten über die permanenten Bemühungen um die professionelle Weiterentwicklung des Beratungssystems. Denn der gesellschaftliche Wandel stellt eine kontinuierliche Herausforderung für die Verbesserung lebensbegleitender Beratungsangebote im Kontext lebenslangen Lernens dar.
This report produced for the UK Commission for Employment and Skills addresses how technology is reshaping the career support market and the implications of this for policy makers and for the funding and delivery of services. The career support market is defined as the conceptual space within which individuals who desire career support transact with those who provide it. Technology contributes not only to increasing consumer choice and to improving the cost-effectiveness of services; it has also led to the development of new service paradigms, especially through social media applications. It has changed how career support is being experienced by individuals and how the support services are managed, delivered and taken up.
The report describes different styles of government intervention in the career support market involving the use of technology, including some international comparisons, and the business models that underpin the market. It provides some conclusions on the role of the government in the market in general, and its roles in ensuring more creative and strategic use of the opportunities provided by technology.
This publication (2008) written for the CfBT by Dr Deirdre Hughes is situated in UK policy aims of increasing the participation of young people in further education and training in the UK with specific targeted increases for years 2013 and 2015. In particular the publication examines how the impact of information, advice and guidance services can be assessed in assisting the achievement of such targets. This is an important question facing policy-makers, service delivery managers, practitioners and as well as the concerned public.
While written for a UK audience, the text is an excellent source of knowledge and information on general issues concerning evidence, its nature and collection, and on possible policy performance indicators. Its chapters cover:
A very useful glossary of terms is provided in Appendix 2. Highly recommended.
This paper produced by Helmut Zelloth of the European Training Foundation (ETF) traces the history of career guidance provision in the education, training and employment sectors in Kosovo particularly since 2001. Based on field visit observations and relevant documentation, the paper sets out the strengths, weaknesses, and policy and other recommendations for career guidance provision in Kosovo.
Kosovo is a landlocked country with boundaries of 702 kms and a population of 1.8m people. Its population is aged mainly under 28 years.
This paper is a useful description of one country's experience in charting the way forward to developing a policy and system for guidance provision where none existed previously.

STORRS, Conn. (AP) -- Fab Melo's follow-up dunk with 31 seconds left lifted No. 2 Syracuse to a 71-69 win over Connecticut on Saturday night and clinched the Big East regular season title for the Orange.
C.J. Fair blocked a shot by Roscoe Smith just before the buzzer to preserve the victory for Syracuse (29-1, 16-1) which has won nine in a row since its only loss of the season. Kris Joseph had 21 points to lead the Orange.
Jeremy Lamb had 19 points and Andre Drummond added 15 points and 13 rebounds for UConn (17-11, 7-9), which overcame a 17-point second-half deficit to tie the game with 47 seconds to go.
The win was the first for Syracuse at Gampel Pavilion, where the Orange had been 0-4.

Mayor Carolyn Kirk's "bridge plan" for modernizing and retooling America's oldest fishing port was never presented for comment or criticism to the city's own Fisheries Commission she created to advise her on fisheries issues, or to the Gloucester-based Northeast Seafood Coalition, the region's largest and most influential industry group.
"Individual elements were distributed," said Harbor Planning Director Sarah Garcia in a telephone interview Thursday. "The final one was not sent out."
The plan was cobbled together and released in a five-point proposal last Friday by harbor and waterfront activist Valerie Nelson and Garcia from ideas generated from a workshop they organized in April, attended by a cross section of industry stakeholders.
Nelson has also traveled to Washington to lobby for support for the plan which is a work in progress, according to the mayor.
With more than 250 members, the seafood coalition, founded in 2002, represents more than half the boats in the Northeast . And, through its registered lobbyist Glenn Delaney, has for many years been active in lobbying Congress, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and its science policy advisory arm, the New England Fishery Management Council.
The recent organization of the Nelson-Garcia solutions workshop and subsequent lobbying effort behind the evolving proposal has befuddled and in some cases angered fishermen, the coalition and political leaders.
Among the ideas cited in the "bridge plan" that struck the industry and its allies as especially troublesome were these two:
To "retool the industry through investments in sustainable, innovative businesses"; and, to "shift from a high volume, low-value fisheries to a high-value, low-volume fisheries with a lighter economic footprint."
Gloucester has been the primary port for landings of groundfish from the Northwest Atlantic since the 17th century, and due to the volume of fish landed by boats working Georges Bank and the Gulf of Maine, it remains the only port in the region that has refused to diversify and continues to process the bulk of landings from boats home ported in Maine and along Massachusetts Bay.

When Dan Brown's blockbuster novel "The Lost Symbol" hit stores in September, it may have offered a peek at the future of bookselling.
The DaVinci Code author's latest book, The Lost Symbol, may have benefited from the reduced electronic price
CNN's Phil Black explains why publishers and bookstores expect Dan Brown's latest book to be a success.
Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" has spawned a raft of imitators, most of which pale in comparison; the latest, "The Lost Symbol," is by Brown himself.
Dan Brown could not have written a more suspenseful plot if he'd tried.

The sequel to "The Da Vinci Code" has inspired more shrugs than shouts, as CNN's Kara Finnstrom reports.
It's been three years to the month since Dan Brown's book "The Da Vinci Code" hit theater screens, becoming a worldwide blockbuster.
Tom Hanks and Ron Howard describe what it was like to film their new film on the ancient streets of Rome.
"The Da Vinci Code," a film based on a novel from Dan Brown, opened three years ago amid controversy and protests. Now, a new film based on another Brown novel, "Angels and Demons," opened on Friday.
Critics and Catholics were quick to denounce Ron Howard's faithfully irreligious film of Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" when it was released almost exactly three years ago.
CNN's Larry King talks Catholic controversy with Tom Hanks and Ron Howard of "Angels and Demons."
Tom Hanks dashes through a graceful Roman piazza, past an ancient Egyptian obelisk surrounded by fountains of water-spouting lions, his eyes focused on a church tucked into the corner of the square.
Three years ago, the film based on Dan Brown's novel "The Da Vinci Code" was the focus of protest and controversy, with a Vatican archbishop calling for a boycott and Catholics at many levels refuting plot points.

Colin Bonnett (11) of Benet Academy accelerates past Jack Barry of Marist. | Jon Cunningham~For Sun-Times Media
With the likes of senior forward Pat McInerney and junior center Sean O'Mara controlling the inside, punching it inside is certainly always an option for Benet.
But in cruising to a 50-28 victory over Marist on Friday in Lisle, No. 7 Benet continued to show its offensive versatility extends beyond the paint.
McInerney was his usual stout self in pacing everyone with a game-high 17 points but it was the Redwings' prowess from the perimeter that proved pivotal for the second time this week.
Coming off a performance on Tuesday at Wheaton Academy where the Redwings convert on nine three-pointers as a team, Benet converted nine three-pointers collectively for the second time in as many games.
"I feel like our shooting ability outside is really attributed to our inside game because [opponents] have to focus so much attention in on Sean and [McInerney], that we're getting open looks on the edge," said senior guard Jack Toner, who chipped in with three three-pointers on his way towards11 points. "If we keep shooting like that, it'll be tough to guard both inside and outside."
With the victory, the Redwings clinched at least a piece of their third East Suburban Catholic Conference title in the last four years.
"To win in this conference [is tough]. This conference is awesome," Benet coach Gene Heidkamp said. "There are so many great teams this year. To have a piece of it, I think, is something that we feel good about. We still have one game left and, obviously, we'd like to play well in that last game. So it's nice to have a piece of it, but if we're able to do so, we'd like to do our best to win on Wednesday."
Benet (23-4, 6-1) can win the title outright with a win at home on Wednesday against Nazareth.
Serving as a microcosm for the entire night, McInerney isolated the rest of the floor as time was expiring in the third quarter and hit on the Redwings' ninth, and final, three-pointer on the night to give the Redwings a 43-25 lead entering the fourth.
"We had a ball screen for me at the top [of the key] and they switched and the big guy was on me. So [I] kind of stepped back, used my length and luckily it went in," said McInerney, who hit three three-pointers. "Probably more luck than skill, but I'll take it."
The Redwings hit on six three-pointers collectively in the first half as Toner and senior Jack Euritt hit two threes apiece as part of a 24-10 Benet run to end the first half.
McInerney tallied nine points in the first half, including converting a pair of conventional three-point plays, during the Redwings' surge, which turned a quick 8-4 deficit into a 28-18 halftime lead.
Senior guard L.J. McIntosh had a team-high 12 points for Marist (16-9, 3-4), which was held to a season-low 28 points on the night.

The Denver Nuggets are an NBA team, a very good one in fact. They are just a small NBA team, and that proved to be a problem against Andrew Bynum and the Los Angeles Lakers. Bynum blocked 10 shots, tying an NBA Playoffs record set by Hakeem Olajuwon and Mark Eaton. He added a triple-double -- the first points/rebounds/blocks triple-double in the playoffs since 1990 -- for good measure in the Lakers' blowout win.
Here's video of the first nine of Bynum's 10 blocks in the game.
The tenth block came against Timofey Mozgov, one of three Nuggets centers who was powerless to stop Bynum from dominating the paint. Size is such a huge factor in the playoffs, and the Lakers have a huge size advantage over the Nuggets that they will continue to exploit until the Nuggets find some magic growing beans. Unless that happens, Denver is in a lot of trouble in this series.
For updates and analysis of these two teams, make sure to check out Lakers blog Silver Screen and Roll, SB Nation Los Angeles, Nuggets blog Denver Stiffs and SB Nation Denver.

4.21/5 rDev +9.4%
Pours a crystal-like shade of copper and orange, thin, wispy, white head that settles quick but leaves some decent lacing all the way down the glass. The nose on this beer is GREAT. Some fruit/vegetable beers suffer from having aromatics that are oft too artificial; impure, contrived, forced - this beer, however, hits the mark. The peach aroma hits the nose like a fresh peach, picked straight from the tree. No medicinal or chalky tones - very pure and welcomed, but not overpowering or cloying. Some bread-like aromas go hand in hand from the yeast, balancing the nose perfectly.
The taste IS the aroma in flavor form - the mouth follows the nose perfectly, making for a nice hand-in-hand combination from the senses that really makes the beer come alive. Sweet, ripe peaches, crisp carbonation, bread and biscuity yeast, plentiful malts and barley, and balancing woody-earth tones. Some slight warmth from the alcohol, gives the "fruit" beer some meatiness and an extra leg to stand on (as if it needed one). Slightly syrupy, silky feel with a medium body.
I normally do not care for fruit beers, oftentimes because the "fruit" element isn't done properly. But this beer hits a homerun as far as fruit beer goes. This is the benchmark for how this style should be done. Powerful, but not dominant; smooth and pure. Watch out, at an almost unnoticeable 9.5% ABV, this beer will kick your ass.

750ml bottle. #13 of 820.
Pours into my glass a hazy amber orange with a half inch of light tan creamy head on top. Spotty lacing works over the glass as well. Aromas start out with big peach puree that's really vibrant. Creamy, light grainy malts are in there as well. Sort of tart with a mild earthy hop underneath. The real peach aroma here is wonderful though.
First sip brings a peachy, somewhat grainy malt upfront. Tastes like real peach juice and puree. The creamy, lactose notes move in midway through as the beer does a good balancing act between sweetness and bitterness. It flows down with a kiss of hops and spice and finishes off with lingering peach notes. Definitely the most vibrant peach brew I have ever experienced. Alcohol is non-existent in the flavor as well.
Mouthfeel is smooth and medium bodied. Quite a refreshing brew that is on the sweeter side but never becomes too cloying. Overall, an amazing fruit beer that really shows how much using real fruit makes a difference. Shared this with a few friends. Another treat from the Imperial Series.

3.73/5 rDev -3.1%
2012 bottle
A - Pours golden orange with half a finger of short-lives white head.
S - Sweet malts, some peaches that smell a bit like peach cobbler (a bit syrupy) and some alcohol in the nose. Also a faint earthy bitterness.
T - Initially very sweet, almost syrupy. After the initial sweetness, peaches flavors emerge, along with some faint hops, a slight aspirin taste and quite a bit of booze. The finish reminds me of the taste of a peach pit. The lactose presence is noticeable but modest.
M - Fuller mouthfeel than I was expecting. Initially sticky sweet, but finishes bitter and slightly astringent with a considerable booziness.
O - Seems like a beer with a lot of potential, but falling short in the execution. Still good, but too much booze and aspirin taste. Thinning this out with a bit less malt to give a lighter mouthfeel could also improve this.

750mL bottle.
Darker than expected brandishing a tarnished golden color with a stunning clarity. Good frothing and the lacing is amazing. Smells of fresh picked peaches from stem to meat to pit. Light lactose and biscuity malt aroma. Exceptionally smooth with a rolling crispness that feigns a full body, solid medium body is unwavering. Big orchard flavor of macerated peaches with the earthy woodiness of the pits. Slight hop bitterness and peppery warming alcohol help to balance the sweetness of the semi-tart peach flavor and malt character. Toasted biscuit and and earthy yeast trail in the drying finish.
Wow, look at Short's ... bringing the fruit beer to a god like level. A bottle of chaotic goodness. This is a beautiful beer, a strong ale at that and drinkable too boot ... lovey yet dangerous.

Clear amber color with a white head that had decent lacing and some retention. Peaches, oranges, various tropical aromas, and a little bit of earthy hops in the aroma. Peaches jump out at the tongue first, but hops come into play shortly thereafter. Also had some other citrus/tropical flavors (mango), with a slightly tart finish. Medium carbonation and body, but something just seemed a little missing. Good beer, glad I tried it, but not worth the price tag.

750ml bottle poured into a wine glass.
Pours a nice dark amber color with a nice thick deep amber color. Nose is fruity and fresh, lots of peaches.
Taste is well, peaches and cream. It's really sweet so you don't want to drink a whole bottle but it's great to split. It's got a nice full mouthfeel easy drinking.

Bottled poured into FFF Teku
A - Copper with golden hues. Off-white head formed but slowly receded to only be on the sides
S - Peaches are the main component as it smells like biting into a fresh, juicy peach. I get a light cream sweetness but not much. Also, a slight pepper spice seems to come through
T - This is a sweet beer initially as I get a lot of sugar and sweet cream. The peach comes in the middle to give it a slight peach fruitiness that makes it taste like those sugar coated peach rings you can buy at a gas station. There is a alcohol bite, a slight metallic flavor, and some bittering hops that comes in near the finish that prevent it from being cloying.
M - Thick, syrupy beer that is slightly astringent in the finish
O - Like many Short's beers, this is interesting. It has good peach flavor too it but it is soo sweet that it's hard to drink too much of this. Worth the try but wish it wasn't so sugary.

Thanks again to FtownThrowDown for sharing this.
A: Murky dark amber. Good head with some decent retention. Nice lacing.
S: Peaches and cream, big time and amazing. Pleasant sweetness but not over done.
T/M: Peaches and cream, obviously. Delicious. Sweet, juicy peaches at first with a rich cream coming in at the back. More of the pleasant sweetness. A bit of richer malts in the back. Body is medium full and smoothand creamy as he'll.
D: Too damn smooth for 9.5%. Awesome.

Thanks to Sawyer for this one!
A: Pours a slightly hazy orange with a very small amount of white head that dissipates very quickly and leaves behind no lacing whatsoever.
S: A little bit of peach juice and fruitness, light malt, and some alcohol right at the end.
T: Again, some peach up front, a bit of pineapple as well. Not as exciting as I was hoping, heard it tasted like peach rings, but sadly it did not.
M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Slight alcohol at the end.
O: A let down. Typically the strange Short's beer have been enjoyable, but I wanted more from this one. Maybe next time.

Beautiful golden-amber color with a slight head. When held up to the light, its translucent. Some sediment in the bottom of the glass, but that would be expected. Smells grainy, slightly yeasty and of course peachy. I do get a sense of sweetness on the nose, which I assume is from the lactose used in the brewing process. Taste is loaded with peach followed by sweetness. I do pick up a bit of graininess from the malt and the taste finishes with a bite of bitterness. This is a full bodied beer and well carbonated. Overall, I really like this beer. I am a big fan of peach flavor in beer and this ones got it. It could be a little overwhelming with the flavor and sweetness though, so I think one will do for now.

12 oz. bottle poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Deep hazy copper. Very leggy. Nice lacing and a lopsided head.
Smell - Peach aroma is nice. Smells sweet with some pale malt.
Taste - Sweet right up front. Peach blends in nicely. Creamy is an apt descriptor from the lactose. Slight grain and a mild tang from the fruit.
Mouthfeel - Creamy and kinda heavy. Pretty sweet too. Medium carbonation.
Overall - No idea how fresh this us, but it has no signs of Short's usual off flavors. Tastes pretty good and fits the title.

Studying abroad is a selection welcomed by lots of excitement, enjoyment and gratitude. Yet, planning your instruction in foreign nations needs lots of attempt. Actually, you should start the preparation well ahead of time so as to avoid making any errors. From figuring out the plan to getting your instruction manual in order that interests you, you've got to pass through several processes before finalizing your entry. After all, only when you get the basics right are you going to have the capacity to appreciate a profitable study abroad experience.
Before you begin with abiding to the long list of necessities each university needs stressing yourself, there are five things you want to consider. The first thing you should do would be to determine whether studying abroad is best for you. You must determine whether you're really prepared for the idea of studying abroad, although it seems like a great experience. Remember you will be encircled with new culture and characters and that being abroad means being far from your nearest and dearest. Above all, learn the reason you would like to study abroad. More than the stature, check if the chance will have the ability to shape you into a better man.
The next thing you need before you run out registering to an entry consulting firm to do will be to determine when and where you would like to study. There are several excellent universities, business schools and MBA schools across the world for you to select from. It's a good idea to narrow your selections down by answering a couple of easy questions such as whether you'd favor a foreign language or an English speaking community. Additionally, figure out if you prefer a rural or urban setting. You might also check reviews and do a few Google searches to have an initial idea of the kind of environment you would like to immerse yourself with.
For aspirants who intend to head towards foreign nations to be able to pursue their academic interest, here's a fundamental guideline of key elements which should be contemplated.
Get as many details as possible!
This is the period that is first and foremost when planning your study abroad you have to clear. During this period procure details on all significant variables like entry deadlines, kinds of applications, edges of pursuing specific classes, etc. university evaluations,
Speak with an academic advisor
The study abroad choices, spend time once you've figured out. Nevertheless, do not run into taking choices. You should seek the guidance of an expert academic advisor. Being well versed with the several standards included in the domain of foreign schooling, they are going to ensure that you simply select a plan of your liking.
Compare applications
This is the phase where you may have to do a little research that is advanced. Begin by comparing the same system being offered by different universities on the basis of your interests and future strategies or the various systems. You may also speak to relatives and friends to be able to get a clearer image.
Plan your finances
Studying abroad will come with a price tag. Thus, you'll have to plan your finances ahead of time. From the tuition fees to the accommodation, food along with cost that is travelling, you may have to make many payments. For those who have the cash, we'd advocate arranging the financing to make sure that the payments are made at regular times. In the event you do not have the cash, you could consistently apply for loans. Additionally, many universities offer scholarships to eligible pupils. This facility may also assist you to look after your finances to an extent.
Use punctually!
Once you're clear about your tastes, begin working on completing your application form. Fill in the details that are required and attach the supporting documents to ensure everything is in order. Lastly, do not forget to submit your application on time!

Karie & Chuck: Should Chris Christie get serious about his weight?
By Karie & Chuck
Originally published: Feb 5, 2013 - 12:07 pm
Originally published: Feb 5, 2013 - 12:07 pm
Let's face it: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is not a small guy.
While some criticize Christie for failing to control his weight, he appeared on David Letterman this week and joked about his weight (Video below).
Christie went as far as to bring a jelly doughnut as a snack, saying he was the "healthiest fat guy you've seen in your life." A bit later, he got into a more serious conversation with Letterman.
The governor said both his cholesterol and blood sugar were fine ("startlingly good"), but said he thinks about going on a diet "every day." "But I just turned 50, and so the doctor ... (said) things are going to fall off of me if I don't get it together, but up to this point it's been pretty good."
What do you think of Christie's comments and weight? Should he be joking about it or taking it more seriously? Let us know in the comments.
