This is a post by our literacy and sales assistant, Veronica Schneider.
It was no major surprise who the big winners were on Monday evening's 66th Primetime Emmy Awards, with Breaking Bad totaling five awards and Modern Family winning Best Comedy Series for the fifth consecutive year.
More importantly, the 2014 Emmy Awards really shocked us all by showing how progressive and diversified television has become.
We need to look beyond the fashionable red carpet looks and the Hollywood glam and instead discuss what is plainly missing: diversity. Diverse television may pull in viewers with hit shows like Sleepy Hollow, Orange is the New Black, and Scandal, but it isn't necessarily being rewarded. In an interview with KCPP Radio,Darell Hunt, Director of UCLA's Ralph J. Bunche Center for African American Studies, said, "So far we haven't seen a translation where the awards program reflects the increasing variety of things that are actually being made for the small screen."
Not one person of color won in any of the lead or supporting actor/actress categories, with only 6 total African Americans amongst the 54 white nominees. Many were hopeful that Kerry Washington would take the win for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for ABC's Scandal – she would have been the first African American to win in this category. Add to this the troubling fact that, as we reported last year, an African American woman has not been nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series since The Cosby Show (1986). Uzo Aduba, who plays 'Crazy Eyes' on Orange is the New Black, did take home an Emmy for Guest Actress in a Comedy, but that category was not part of the Prime Time Emmys and went largely under the radar.
Although we were certainly applauding Cary Joji Fukunaga's win for Directing in a Drama Series for True Detective, people of color overall held a 22% representation in the directing categories.
Women were also not exempt from underrepresentation at the Emmys. According to the Women's Media Center (WMC), 26% of the nominees were women, highlighting the consistent lack of representation maintained from the 2013 Emmy Awards' 26.5% makeup of women nominees. Out of 62 possible award categories, 16 completely failed to include women. But wait, this isn't the first time this has happened. Yes, according to the WMC, this is the third consecutive year that 16 categories were void of women. Oops.
Maybe that is why many viewers were not laughing as Modern Family actress, Sofia Vergara, slowly spun on a revolving platform while Bruce Rosenblum, CEO and Chairman of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, spoke about the academy being "more diverse than ever before." While some found this play on sexual stereotypes humorous, the attempt at irony may not have been as successful for others who criticized the Academy for the cringe-worthy objectification. Instead, this failed attempt at irony reminded audiences of the still relevant and persistent issue of sexism and gender disparity.
"What a wonderful time for women in television," Julianna Marguiles declared as she accepted her Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for The Good Wife.
We agree. There is more opportunity and diversity in television today, but it isn't reinforced loud enough in what is being rewarded. Here is last year's infographic on the diversity gap in the Emmy Awards:
Since then, the numbers haven't changed. Let's hope 2015 will be the year that moves the needle.
Filed under: Diversity, Race, and Representation, The Diversity Gap Tagged: diversity gap, diversity in Hollywood, Emmy Awards, television
Reblogged this on ConStar Studies TV and commented:
Lee and Low Books put together this article and infographic regarding diversity at the Emmy's. There were few nominations and even fewer people of color who actually won in their category. I love that Kerry Washington was nominated, but there was little hope in my mind that she would win the award (even if Breaking Bad wasn't there to sweep all the major drama categories).
And I really, truly hate the fact that the "Creative Arts" Emmys are a separate ceremony (where they give out the rest of the Emmy's that don't fit in the telecast) and aren't televised. There, Uzo Aduba AND Joe Morton (from Scandal) won awards. I was deprived two very important Emmy acceptance speeches. And we were all deprived of seeing two fantastic black actors take home well-deserved awards. The Emmy's certainly need to do better diversity-wise.

The GBI Crime Lab will be conducting an autopsy on the bodies of a Richmond Hill couple after a shooting Monday night.
Richmond Hill police and first responders were called at about 8:15 p.m. Monday to 62 Mimosa St. in Richmond Hill.
Officers arrived to find Shirley Davis Hiers, 67, and Richard Earl Bates, 55, had been shot. Bates died at the scene and Hiers was taken to Memorial Medical Center by Bryan County EMS, where she died.
The preliminary investigation indicates that Bates shot Hiers and then took his own life, but the investigation continues, according to a news release from Richmond Hill police.
Police have no motive for the shooting and there was no indication of other foul play in the residence. Family members last spoke with the couple at about 6:30 p.m. and told police that nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
Richmond Hill Police Chief Billy Reynolds said she's a well respected and well liked, community oriented woman and that a lot of people knew her.

Guys & Girls:
It's just your typical, run-of-the-mill scene. Very few people stand out in good or bad ways. No one is exceptionally great looking, rich, or well-dressed. This is a college full of people looking to get an education, and maybe make some friends. Status is less important here.
Guys & Girls:
The people at NKU are very interesting. Its fun to sit outside the student union and watch all of the people go by. You never know who you will see and who you will meet. I met quite a few of the people I hang out with by just sitting on a bench and reading or studying for a class
Guys & Girls:
everybody had their own groups. i didnt really have time to socialize with people on campus.
Guys & Girls:
Typical student is late teens/early twenties, but there are plenty of parents and older people who have returned to college to further their education. The majority of the student body commutes, and I only go home on the weekends for work and immediately return to campus.

Valuev beat Ruiz by SD. Scores were 116-111, 116-113 for Valuev and 114-113 for Ruiz. It was a contemporary Heavyweight fight which featured a lot of clinching and flailing. Valuev scored with some flush jaberoos in Ruiz's face while Ruiz best attack was to the body and occasional hooks to Valuev's chrome. All Valuev had was a jab and a weak right hand when he kep Ruiz at a distance. When Jawny got inside there was little Valuev could do but hold. This man. meaning Valuev, is too slow and not a big hitter even for a heavyweight. I expect Chagaev to outbox him again, if he can stop pulling Vitalis and finally fight. Maybe Povetkin can beat him too provided he can stick and move.
Ruiz gave a good account of himself. Given Ruiz's inside mauling style, there was no chance he would dart in and out like Chagaev did against Valuev. At least Ruiz tried winging haymakers in an attempt to KO his opponent. Expect him to re-appear in the future probably upsetting a young undefeated heavyweight.
All in all not much has changed here in the division.

From 06/01/13 notes. Had an 8 oz. pour of this on tap at Tørst in Brooklyn, NY.
a - Pours a hazy burnt orange color with one inch of bright white head and moderate carbonation evident.
s - Smells of pale malts, citrus, fruity malts, bready malts, and light floral hops. Some decent hops and fruit in the nose.
t - Tastes of citrus, sorachi ace hops, more bready malts than the nose had, pale malts, biscuit, dough, and pale malts. More bready and more malts than the nose.
m - Medium body and low to moderate carbonation. Body is pretty smooth and easy to drink.
o - Overall a pretty solid APA. Some nice citrus and fruity hops in the nose, and lots of malts in the taste. Very easy to drink, a goo summer APA I'd have again.

On-tap at Craft Beer Co., served in a goblet.
A: Clear light amber body with a fine white head. Ok retention, great lace. Nice.
S: Herbal and fruity hops, with gooseberry and pine standing out. Some melon and blueberry are rather peculiarly present as well. Interesting, and pleasant. New Zealand hops?
T: Hoppy up front, with fruitiness dominating. Some malts combine with the citrus and berry notes midway through, and the finish is cleanly bitter. Good stuff.
M: Lively, creamy medium body. Pleasant.
O: Very good, but a little bit forgettable.

On tap at the Cask, Pimlico
This beer is brewed exclusively for the Cask and its sister pub, the Craft Beer Co (according to the clip on the tap head)
Pours a hazy golden colour with a thin white head of small bubbles
Lots of tropical fruit in the hoppy aroma of this beer and a little pine also
Citrus flavours come into play in the taste, I would say it tastes a little more bitter than it smells and the pine and wood also come in to play more and a little grass comes through
Just the right level of carbonation, good in the mouth and a nice bitter-dry aftertaste
Overall a good all round hoppy/dry APA

There is a cacher (actually there's a good few million of us) who has his blog at Blogspot.
I wanted to comment on one of his posts, one about puztoks and the trashing of a D5T5 cache. The content of the comment was not important, almost a throwaway about a spelling mistake which made the UK's most prolific Geocacher into "Dr Silly".
Whether it's Blogspot itself or a setting made by the Blogger, I was unable to type in my details, instead the comments system wanted me to use a Pre-defined account from Google, wordpress.com, or similar services. I have both a Google and a WordPress ID and trying either of them the accounts were refused.
Sucky Blogspot. I keep trying and living in hope that one day it will work. So far I am constantly disappointed.
Anyway, have a read of the blog at SMS Text Blog.
And, congratulations to SMSText on being the first cacher in the UK (and third in the world) to find 100 D5T5 geocaches.

Autopsy finds drugs in journalist who died in Los Angeles crash
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A prominent U.S. journalist whose reporting led to the ouster of the senior U.S. military commander in Afghanistan had traces of methamphetamine in his blood when he was killed in June in a fiery Los Angeles car crash, autopsy findings showed on Tuesday.
The drugs in Michael Hastings' system were of an amount unlikely to have contributed to the crash in which the Mercedes-Benz he was driving struck a tree and burst into flames, according to the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office report.
A Los Angeles Police Department spokeswoman said at the time that "there was no evidence of foul play in the accident," but the news stirred Internet conspiracy theories suggesting the journalist had been the victim of government efforts to silence him.
Hastings, 33, was best known for a 2010 Rolling Stone profile of Army General Stanley McChrystal that quoted the military leader making disparaging remarks about President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.
Obama soon relieved McChrystal of his post and replaced him with then-General David Petraeus.
The autopsy found Hastings died of traumatic injuries from a car collision with a fixed object and that he succumbed to his injuries within seconds of impact.
Toxicology results showed a small amount of amphetamine in Hastings' blood consistent with "possible intake of methamphetamine many hours before death" but which would probably not have been "intoxicative" at the time of the crash.
Hastings also had marijuana in his system in the form of its metabolite, indicating possible pot use hours before his death. "Family had just arrived from New York the day prior, attempting to get decedent to go to rehab," the report said.
It also cited the initial Los Angeles police investigation as having found that Hastings had been traveling at a "high rate of speed" when he "apparently lost control of his vehicle."
Hastings' widow, Elise Jordan, in an interview with CNN host Piers Morgan earlier this month, downplayed the conspiracy theories.
"The LAPD still has an active investigation," Jordan told CNN. "I don't really have anything to add. My gut here is that it was just a really tragic accident, and I'm very unlucky and the world was very unlucky."
A June Twitter posting from anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks said the journalist contacted a WikiLeaks attorney hours before his death to tell them the FBI was investigating him. The post fueled online speculation about the nature of his death.
The FBI in a statement in June said "at no time" was Hastings under investigation by the agency.
(Reporting by Alex Dobuzinskis; Editing by Cynthia Johnston and Prudence Crowther)
Here's a 2008 Hastings quote (p. 12): "There was no good excuse for me to be back in Afghanistan or Iraq … Was part of me looking to get killed, too? To even the scales, neatly tie up my love for her, to complete the narrative? Two lovers, both dead. How tragic. … Maybe there was some part of me that didn't want to die just yet, wanting to say, '**** you war, you can't destroy me. I'm going to win this, on my own terms.' A delusion, of course, because war always wins."
This month, Rolling Stone reporter Tim Dickinson wrote (p. 118): "Hastings lived life at full throttle, raced his demons and, at times, took unnecessary risks. … Hasting's younger brother…says he accepts the obvious and, in some ways, more difficult explanation for his brother's death: that Michael simply drove too fast and didn't survive."
The autopsy reports that Hastings had suffered from PSTD. It's sad it appears the wars did "win" in the end. I miss him and his fearless, truthful reporting (Ditto for Carl Prine, sidelined by migraines from IED hits).

Capitol Records celebrated the gold certification of Eric Church's second album, Carolina, Tuesday (July 12) with a late afternoon party at the Whiskey Bent Saloon in Nashville.
Photo Credit: Marilu White
A "gold" designation, which is certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), signifies that 500,000 copies of an album or single have been shipped for retail sales.
As the Church-goers gathered and availed themselves of the full bar, uniformed servers circulated through the crowd offering trays of vegetable "caviar" in crust shells, fried green tomatoes topped with bacon and other such caloric landmines.
"This has been a long time coming, a lot of hard work," said Capitol chief Mike Dungan as he surveyed the crowd from the room's bandstand, "[but] buoyed by the constant comment, 'Wow, that's my favorite record.'"
However, Dungan proclaimed, the current sales total is but "a fraction of what it's going to be before it's done." He then presented Church the first of a series of plaques to mark the occasion. He also noted the singer-songwriter's third album, Chief, will be out July 26.
Troy Tomlinson, Church's publisher at Sony/ATV Music, said the singer-songwriter's artistic virtues can be distilled into three words: "authentic, uncompromising, driven." He also presented a plaque.
"At BMI, we are in the Eric Church business and proud to be there," said Jody Williams, speaking for the organization that collects and pays royalties for the public playing and performances of songs.
Williams announced that Church's 2009 single, "Love Your Love the Most," has garnered 1 million plays at radio, a total that would amount, if done in sequence, he explained, to six years of around-the-clock airplay.
Williams gave awards to Church and his co-writer, Michael Heeney, for the achievement.
It was Church's first such milestone.
"It's not lost on me how special this [occasion] is," said Church, "especially in this day and age. ... This is the epitome of dedication, perseverance and belief."
He thanked his wife and his parents, who stood in the crowd, for being "the people who keep me grounded."
Then, summing it all up, Church said, "I'm not the easiest guy to work with. ... But I promise you, we're going to kick everybody's ass in the end."

20 Game-Changing Twitter Chats
Posted on December 19th 2011
Have you ever participated in a Twitter chat? If yes, then you already know how valuable they are. If you haven't, then hopefully this post can provide some insights into what they offer and why you should get involved with one.
Twitter chats are one of the most underutilized, untapped resources in social media. This year saw the creation of some fantastic new chats and huge growth in others. As their popularity continues to grow, so does the value they offer to participants. Before we start talking individual chats, let's step back and discuss a few of the awesome benefits of joining a twitter chat.
Increase Your Network
If nothing else, twitter chats are a killer way of meeting fantastic new people. Fantastic new people who share similar interests to yourself. Fantastic new people who love nothing more than to chat about being an English teacher in Asia (yes, there's a chat for that #AsiaELT). If 2011 was the year chats took flight, 2012 will be the year individuals and businesses begin leveraging chats for sales leads and increasing conversions.
Establishing Brand Expertise
There has been A LOT of talk about personal branding over the past few years. A great way to springboard your personal brand and begin establishing yourself as a leader in your industry is by participating in twitter chats. Sharing all of your industry expertise during these chats builds brand equity and credibility. Stick with these chats for a few months and you might find yourself speaking at your industriesnext big expo.
Now that we've qualified a few of the benefits of twitter chats its time to get involved. Each chat has its own personality and core group of participants. I'd suggest spending a week trying a new chat each day. Think of it like buying a new car. There are going to be chats similar in theme and topic so take the time to see which feels best to you. Here are 20 chats full of value and great people.
1. Us Guys Chat - 3:00pm ET - #usguyschat - If you're active in the social media space on twitter I have no doubt you've already engaged with someone in the Us Guys community. The chat is only a small part of this vibrant group. I've made a handful of really special friendships with the Us Guys crew.
2. Marketer Monday Chat - 8:00pm ET - #mmchat - Talented group of marketing minds. Chat typically has a featured guest.
3. Money Chat - 8:00pm ET - #moneychat - Awesome place to get financial advice. Have a question about paying off debt or which investment platform to use, check this chat out.
4. Speaker Chat - 9:00pm ET - #speakchat - Discuss everything from learning principals to creating awesome PowerPoint presentations.
5. Social Chat - 9:00pm ET - #socialchat - One of the featured social media chats. Great way to start the week off.
6. Influence Chat - 12:00pm ET - #influencechat - One of my personal favorites. This chat is Moderated by Alan Berkson and Fred McClimans (two of the smartest guys I know). Everything from disruptive technology to klout's algorithm are discussed.
7. Leadership Chat - 8:00pm ET - #leadershipchat - Like the name suggests, this chat touches on leadership tips, tricks, best practices and so much more.
8. Small Business Chat - 8:00pm ET - #smbiz - This hashtag is used for both the small business chat on Tuesday nights and a very popular reference to all things small business.
9. LinkedIn Chat - 8:00pm ET - #linkedinchat - If you want to learn how to really leverage LinkedIn and grow your business spend an hour in this chat. You'll learn tons of "secret" features.
10. Get Real Chat - 9:00pm ET - #getrealchat - One of the most popular chats on twitter. Led by the amazing Pam Moore, this chat attracts the likes of fortune 500 companies to participate. Word on the street is Walgreens will be the featured guest this coming week.
11. Customer Service Chat - 9:00pm ET - #custserv - Similar to the small business hashtag above, the customer service hashtag serves for both the chat and customer service mentions on twitter. You can find fantastic case studies of social media used for customer service.
12. Social Media Manners - 10:00pm ET - #smmanners - Another great chat around social media best practices, social good and the latest trends in social media.
13. Klout Chat - 11:00am ET - #kloutchat (only first Wednesday of every month) - Looking to learn more about social influence and Klout's ever-changing business model, check this chat out.
14. Small Business Chat - 8:00pm ET - #smallbizchat - Another featured small business chat with a strong community.

16. Harvard Business Review Chat - 1:00pm ET - #HBRChat - This chat is hosted by the editors of the HBR Magazine. Chats typically center around recent articles published on the website. Some very smart people run in this circle.
17. Empire Avenue Chat - 7:00pm ET - #eavchat - This chat was originally started by the founders of the stock exchange style social network. It has evolved into mainstream discussions around social media, influence, and more.
18. Business to Business Chat - 8:00pm ET - #b2bchat - Chat covers how social media can best be used in the business to business sector. You will find very informative and helpful posts shared by the members of this chat.
19. Pinterest Chat - 10:00pm ET - #pinchat - Pinterest, so hot right now. Pinterest.
20. Blog Chat - 9:00pm ET - #blogchat - Cream of the crop. Week over week the most popular Twitter chat. Started and moderated by Mack Collier, the chat covers all the things you and your business need in order to create a successful blog. The last Sunday of every month is "open mic night," where the community picks that weeks topic.
Things tend to move pretty quickly during a twitter chat and it's easy to miss handfuls of comments at a time. Tweetchat is a very cool tool that allows you to see all updates in real-time. It also "smart-pauses" while you scroll down the stream, insuring you don't miss anything.
The above list was just meant to be a starting point. To find more chats check out this awesome, crowdsourced google spreadsheet filled with hundreds of chats.
Let me know if I missed a popular chat or which twitter chats you're finding beneficial in the comments.
As a moderator of #Cmgrchat on Wednesdays at 2pm EST (http://thecommunitymanager.com/chat) - slightly disappointed that it's not on this list. Generally between 900-1200 tweets every week with roughly 70-100 people participating who all work in community management for some of the best start ups and biggest brands -- I'd say it's a pretty great place :) I am a little bias though...
#SMChat (Wednesday 1:00 pm ET) is worth checking out.
Thanks for the great resource.
-Your Social Move Team
Thank you so much for mentioning #SocialChat. Alan K'necht and I are so thrilled with how many excellent and influential Tweeps we have been able to connect with this year. We are looking forward to much more in the coming months. Tonight is our last chat for this year. We are going to take a little holiday break. Please join us and our special guest, Eric Swayne, tonight at 9:00 PM EST. http://twebevent.com/SocialChat

Another good chat, esp. for marketers, PR, even SMB types, is the Wed. #soloPR chat. Lots of good advice from independent PR, social media, marketing communicators. FWIW.

Long live Twitter Chats!

Philips Hue Wi-Fi lightbulbs in Apple stores Oct. 30
Philips announced that Hue, its web-enabled LED smart lighting system, will be exclusively available in Apple Stores Tuesday, Oct. 30. Hue allows a new generation of color-shifting, Wi-Fi-enabled lightbulbs to be controlled wirelessly using an app. An expensive $199 starter pack includes three 50W bulbs that fit in existing light fixtures, plus a bridge for a Wi-Fi router. Each additional individual bulb sells for a staggering $59. Users can set timers, change shades and colors, and save settings so certain "light scenes" can be recalled at any time; the app also enables users to sample colors from their favorite images, and watch as the bulbs match those colors. The bulbs can switch between various white tones and colors — Hue's website claims the bulbs can "recreate any color in the spectrum."
Philips claims Hue is "upgradeable and future-proof" and more features could be available for download in the future. These features could come from other developers; Philips has created an open source platform for the system, available on the Hue website.

This would be cool to have but the $200 setup price plus $59 a bulb is going to kill this for most people.
It would seem smarter to lower the price and sell more of them.

Can't find even basic info about this on the Philips web site, like what is the incandescent bulb wattage equivalent for these damn bulbs huh? 40W? 60W? And do they work with dimmers or not?
Sorry, but LED bulbs in general are LOW power and DON'T work with dimmers so not mentioning this anywhere suggests they're maybe 40W given the profile (which vastly limits their usefulness if true) and NOT compatible with dimmers (ditto for any modern house).

The idea of Hue is alluring to me after all I've enjoyed about the Nest wi-fi learning thermostat, from the app-enabled interfacing to elegant energy-reduction controls. But $250 to control one's furnace efficiently is one thing. It's quite another to pony up thousands of dollars to outfit a home in Hue lighting.
The 28 or so recessed lights in our hearth room-kitchen area alone is enough to remind me this project appears a fail, especially when Philips has made these as 600-lumen devices that don't dim. Most of my fixtures/controls are dimmable and can output around 800-1200 max lumens each.
Posted by Quix on November 1, 2012 at 11:33 AM (CDT)
The Hue is equivalent to a 50W bulb.
They communicate using ZigBee, and you need the ZigBee to Ethernet bridge included in the $199 Starter Pack (connects to your home router).

What is ICD?
Institute for Career Development, headquartered in
ICD is a joint initiative, with labor and management working together to provide educational services to Steelworkers. Today, there are more than 70 Career Development Programs nationwide in the steel, tire and rubber, and glass industries.
What kind of training does the Institute offer?
We have a wide range of classes to meet any interest or skill level. Instruction ranges from basic skills, such as GED preparation or financial investing, to graduate-level college courses. Steelworkers can also take a variety of classes that teach technical skills, such as plumbing, electrical wiring or small engine repair, and a wide array of computer classes are available as well.
The emphasis is on teaching "portable" skills Steelworkers can use to enhance their existing careers or take with them beyond the steel mills, rubber plants and iron mines should they change jobs. Many Steelworkers use the program to prepare for pre-apprenticeship tests.
Approximately 80 percent of the courses are "customized," meaning that instructors are hired to design classes specifically for Steelworkers. Most of these classes are taught in learning centers at or near the plants and are offered twice a day – before and after shift changes – to accommodate workers' schedules. Steelworkers have access to other courses available through a tuition assistance program which provides up to $1,800 annually for tuition, books and fees at accredited institutions.
How is the program funded?
This educational benefit is negotiated by the USW in contracts with participating companies. The companies set aside 15 cents for each hour worked by a Steelworker – or some other contractually agreed-upon amount – to fund the program.
Each site has a Local Joint Committee that oversees spending. The LJC is comprised of both union and company representatives. Depending on the size of the workforce at each plant, budgets range from $10,000 to more than $1 million annually.
What makes the program unique?
Everything is geared toward making learning comfortable and accessible for Steelworkers. Our learning centers are conveniently located, usually on or near work sites or in a union hall. Classes are offered before and after shift changes to accommodate workers' schedules.
Each site offers classes under the direction of the LJC. The LJC decides what courses to offer by documenting workers' needs and interests. They do this through surveys or by sending program Learning Advocates to talk to workers on the shop floor. Each Career Development Program is uniquely tailored for the Steelworkers at that location. It's a "bottom-up" philosophy that enables Steelworkers to drive the program.
Another important aspect of the program is learning confidentiality. Only the Steelworker and the Career Development staff know whether the Steelworker is there to brush up on basic skills or complete a college-level course. Computer-aided instruction supplements traditional classroom settings, small group sessions and one-on-one tutoring.
How can I get more information about the Institute?
Feel free to contact our national office at (219) 738-9029. You can also visit our Facebook page or The Long ... And Short of It.
Our staff can be a valuable resource for anyone who needs information on adult education, workforce training, the future of joint labor/management training programs and the importance of education in the labor movement.

Feeder Update 6/14/14
June 14, 2014By Timothy Bowdern of Mustang Girls Feeder Basketball Teams
Hello All (6/14/14),
Here is some information about this coming week: June 14-22nd
1. This Sunday (tomorrow) is our drills and skills day. Please bring your practice jerseys. Skills and drills are from 6:30-7:30 at St. Johns Lutheran off of Clarkson and Manchester. We have skills next Sunday too.
2. Because of the number of kids playing, I am trying to get CNR to change the schedule. I want to make sure that just about all of our games are double headers. If we have this many in the winter, I am going to do something different, but for now I want to make sure we don't have single games. Because we bought extra games, I think they might give us a free game too. I will let you know. Continue to check the website for the schedule changes.
3. Please check the new website I created for the feeder teams. It is still under construction, but has all the information you would need: http://www.ihigh.com/mustangfeederteams/index.html
4. The cost of the jerseys if you got one was $25.50. That will be good for as long as it holds up. That jersey will be good for this winter and into high school. You can pay me this Sunday or Tuesday.
5. There are only a few that have not paid. Please do so by Sunday at skills. I will be paying the league fee this week.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Have a great week,
Timothy Bowdern

Snow White Must DieBy: Nele Neuhaus (author)eBook
£4.91 RRP £5.99 You save £1.08 (18%)Buy eBook
DescriptionIn a small town in Germany a boy is accused of murdering his beautiful girlfriend. But this is no fairy story . . . On a September evening eleven years ago, two 17-year-old girls vanished without a trace from the tiny village of Altenhain, just outside Frankfurt. In a trial based on circumstantial evidence 20-year-old Tobias Sartorius was convicted and imprisoned for the murder of his childhood friend Laura and his beautiful girlfriend Stefanie – otherwise known as Snow White. After serving his sentence, Tobias returns home. His presence in the little German village stirs up the events of the past. Events that the locals would prefer to remain hidden. When the Sartorius family is subjected to a number of attacks, Detective Inspector Pia Kirchhoff and DS Oliver von Bodenstein are tasked with monitoring the tense atmosphere in the tight-knit community. As the village inhabitants close ranks it becomes apparent the disappearance of Snow White and her friend was far more complex than imagined. Then history starts to repeat itself in a disastrous manner when another pretty girl goes missing. The police are thrown into a race against time. Can they solve the mystery before it's too late?

Camp Barneo: North Pole's floating ice camp
Camp Barneo, otherwise known as the North Pole Camp, is located just 49km from the top of the world. It is set up every year from scratch, and serves as a base for excursions to the Pole. Here are some other facts about North Pole's floating ice camp:
- By the end of April it starts melting, making Barneo the most temporary runway in the world, open for business less than one month every year.
- This year, work on Barneo will have to wrap up about a week earlier than usual, as the ice melts faster than ever before.
- Barneo is constantly moving as northerly winds push the floating camp towards the southeast at up to 0.5mph.
- Every year in March 50 tons of equipment – everything from food supplies to bulldozers - are dropped onto the camp by parachute.

One might feel compelled to recite the Pledge of Allegiance upon entering All American Cafe, whose exposed brick walls are strewn with stars to represent the United States. Of those 50 states, the café's menu draws most heavily on the proud state of Texas. Sunlight filters in through large windows to illuminate fuchsia tablecloths lined with fried and grilled fish fillets, pork chops, and aged Angus steaks served alongside fried okra and mashed potatoes. After two-handing a juicy half-pound burger, diners can question servers about the all-day breakfast offerings or ask for a napkin made from an authentic piece of the Declaration of Independence.
When one thinks of the perfect location for a date night, one doesn't typically think of a workshop lined with paints, brushes, and ready-to-decorate pottery pieces. Pepe le Potter hopes to change that notion. The contemporary studio helms daily drop-in sessions open to anybody, girls' nights for ladies looking to spice up recreational outings, day camps for kids, and monthly classes for those looking to tackle a more intricate project under the tutelage of an accomplished painter. Brush novices need not worry, as instructors move around the room to provide pointers, tips, and techniques on how to make their masterpieces come to life. Once guests finish projects, staffers will fire and glaze them, preparing them for pick up in a few days. Pepe le Potter is also a sponsor of monthly Empty Bowls events, which benefit the Tarrant Area Food Bank.
A kaleidoscope of colors and patterns bewilders shoppers as they enter either of Quilter's Stash's two locations. Some confused patrons report having found the end of the rainbow, but they are really seeing more than 15,000 bolts of 100% cotton fabrics by Marcus, Henry Glass, and other top designers. Staff members wait at attention to direct customers to the latest threads and patterns, and a few on-hand wizards can resuscitate a range of sewing machines from different brands. The crafty gurus are also enthusiastic about leading quilting and sewing classes that cater to students of all levels, and the shop's shelves are stocked with how-to books that facilitate at-home learning.
With more than 850,000 images, Art.com boasts an immense variety of ready-to-hang wall pieces and decorative artwork along with professional custom framing and mounting services. Choose pieces from a massive selection of media and styles, including photographs, vintage art prints, and abstract pieces, or search by subject matter for items such as iconic album covers and movie prints. An artist search can help perusing patrons snag fine-art prints from Matisse and Munch or one of the pulp pieces by Andy Warhol, best known for his daring depiction of infamous midcentury gunslingers the Elvis triplets.
The site's Photos to Art feature lets shutterbugs upload digital snapshots to the site and select a custom frame using a quick interface that offers more than 25 custom frames, a range of sizes, and more than 80 museum-quality mats. In addition to framing uploaded photos, Art.com can also print them on a canvas stretched across wooden support bars and protected with a gallery-grade UV finish. Patrons can view mockups of their custom portraits to ensure they'll match the walls on which they'll hang. Art aficionados can also choose prints from a moody lot of black-and-white beauties before encasing them in a variety of smart frames. Purchases are protected by Art.com's return policy, which guarantees 100% satisfaction.
For more than a decade, Fort Worth, Texas magazine has given its readers the insider information they need to experience Fort Worth and surrounding counties. Fort Worth's explosive growth has not altered its small-town feel, and the city sustains its identity as the "City of Cowboys and Culture." Fort Worth, Texas magazine serves its readers by acting as a curator for the city's food, fashion, travel, health, homes, sports, and local personalities.
Grapevine Guitar Works' quaint little shop holds more Gibson, Taylor, and Yamaha equipment than Peter Frampton's attic—and the shop's staff does more than just hand people instruments and send them on their way. They equip all skill levels with the knowledge to bring their guitar or bass to life through group and private music lessons. Englishman Robb Kelly handles the bass lessons while Paul Reitz teaches guitar—acoustic, electric, classical, and jazz—going far beyond a few simple chords. Having accumulated vast teaching resources in his long musical career, Reitz shares insight through finger-strengthening exercises, technique drilling, and instruction in general theory. He also helps fledgling performers enhance their stage presence by developing their repertoire and showing them the best way to light their guitar on fire mid-solo.

Several analysts expect a deficit in aluminium this year due to output cuts by producers and robust demand after many years of oversupply.
The move is likely to help major aluminium producers such as Nalco, Hindalco and Vedanta by improving the availability of the raw material and discourage exports.
Steel has the capability to remain the preferred material for the automotive industry, ArcelorMittal chairman and CEO Lakshmi Mittal has said.
Another proposal in the budget this year is to reduce duty on ship breaking scrap from 5% to 2.5%. This will be useful for the domestic steel industry.
As western carmakers such as Audi AG lead the way in using aluminium, their Asian rivals are reluctant to invest in the costly retooling.
Sesa Sterlite recently got villagers' approval to expand capacity of Vedanta Aluminium's refinery in Lanjigarh to produce 6 MT of alumina from the present capacity of just 1 MT.
Hike in export duty will constraint bauxite exports and improve raw material availability for these companies.
The project is contemplated in Joint Venture mode for which feasibility study and technology selection would be carried out very soon, release said.

Selena Gomez Went to Rehab With Demi Lovato
Selena Gomez is a really good friend. How do we know this, since we're not personally BFFs with her? Well, she went to rehab with her pal Demi Lovato!
Selena Gomez is a really good friend. How do we know this, since we're not personally BFFs with her? Well, she went to rehab with her pal Demi Lovato!
Demi Lovato is a hair and style chameleon, but she always manages to look like herself -- she's never forcing anything. Aside from her multitude of looks, she also has multiple talents ... and multiple issues that eventually led to rehab. She opened up about everything to Nylon.
Considering Demi Lovato is closer with the Jonas Brothers than any of their fellow Disney alumni, it's only natural that the 'Neon Lights' singer would be asked about their split. Does she have any inside details or insight onto the sudden breakup that shook the boy band's world?
When Carrie Underwood poked fun at celebrity feuds during the CMA Awards recently, little did she know that she'd be the subject of one just a week later: Carrie vs. Demi Lovato!
The always-gorgeous Demi Lovato covers the December/January issue of Latina, her face framed by a shock of buttery, golden hair.
Add Demi Lovato to the list of people thrilled about the impending nuptials of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West!
Are you ready for more Demi Lovato, Lovatics?
Demi Lovato arguably has the best set of pipes in the entire Disney alumni set, and she showed them off in a big way. The 'X Factor' judge and hair color chameleon performed three tracks in an acoustic set for the Grammys Headquarters, and she showed that she doesn't need big bands, dancers or background singers to sound fantastic.
It was another edition of Mean Tweets on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' last night (Oct. 9). In honor of Kanye West's monumental visit, after his Twitter battle with Kimmel, the show launched the music edition of the Mean Tweets skit, which found plenty of pop stars -- Kesha, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato and more -- reading mean tweets about themselves, dished out by regular ol' Twitter users.

Into sweet, sensible geeks... looking for the 'one'. In this game of love, two negatives does not make a positive, sir &;)
Check back after a few days & see if she has added more details to her profile.
Active within 3 days
35 year old woman
West University Place, Texas, United States
I am just a down-to-earth gal in search of a true relationship to last a life time. I am fun, loving, caring, bright, honest, bold (yeah)... I enjoy simple things and I do not sweat the small stuff. I like to please people but do not see myself as a doormat. I believe in people and that most are kind. I believe in changes by example, also one can adapt. I am a hard worker and high achiever. Love the pressure. Very passionate with a relationship. Family is important, so are friends. I strongly believe in God family values.I have a 7 yr old who is the sweetest, brighest child you shall ever meet... ;) true! - We have no drama in our lives and we are not searching for any. If your life should be currently 'complicated' (past relationships, exes etc)... I pass, pass, pasS! I enjoy music - I cannot sing really - but we will have a good time singing them along on the road ... ok ... perhaps just listening. :) I have a bohemic, nostalgic heart... enjoy the old movies... classics... the "old" times. I love soccer matches, especially if Brasil is playing! :) I consider myselff into sports, F1 too. Love playing volleyball.. I keep an open mind to new things. I like animals and absolutely love and cherish nature and "get out there" activities. I am sweet, got a wicked sense of humor and will be the first to stick myheals in the mud for good fun. I also have a good head on my shoulders. I was born and raised in the jungles of Brasil... in the Amazon... yes! The stereotype is totally true.. well... I actually grew up on the beach and have lived in America for a decade now.I can cook some awesome Brazilian style bbq-churrasco. And I ve been told I am quite 'the cook'! Ha...you will be the judge. I am very caring and tolerant. I tend to focus on qualities rather than flaws. I am looking for 'same'. I just love living and would love to have someone whom to share with my life, goals, ambitions, passions, soul, love, affection, intimacy, respect... What you see is what you get. Here is what I am looking for, check mark as you go, these are a must: among a few well defined qualities I shall not mention, I am searching for someone who I can basically "connect"; someone who enjoys my company and like-wise. I do not believe in anything by 'convenience'. Someone who is clever, not arrogant-opinionated will be considered and is rather welcome than someone who doesn't stand his ground. There is a fine line though-a FINE line. If you are somewhat argumentative in nature most likely, we are not a match. I am laid back and although truly enjoy engaging in conversations/discussions, I like to keep my well-defined opinions as I respect the view of others. Being genuinely 'keen' to children is a given. We are a pretty 'darn' good package I may add. Please don't bother if children was never in your 'life' list. Yes, I d like to have at least 1 more child of my own. I d rather meet someone who was never married, widowed(w children ok) or divorced w/o children or with FULL custody of children. No 'EX-drama"!! Not willing to deal w all the bs.Don't go breaking my heart! There is not a fix to that! Sweet, genuine, kind-hearted,funny,witty,humble,optimistic,passionate about a few things in life; someone who is content and rather appreciates the simplest things. Confidence, honesty, good character, loyalty...and then it all comes down to chemistry and connection in a more complex, personal level, which is really the simplest of all: since it is either there or not.
Not looking to 'hook-up'.Whatever that means. Please save yourself (and me) the time trouble and hit 'next' if you know in your heart we are not looking for 'the same' in relationship here. Yes, I am easy-going, considerate, genuine and non-demanding. But I am not dumb. Don't take advantage of my kindness, generosity. If not appreciated, you will for certain, soon lose it all. Once lost - there is nothing you can do to earn it back. I basically treat others as I would like to be treated
We have a yorkie (cocoa - or coconut)...a mental pom (we love Gwendalin) and a salt water tank ... rip* hamsters Elephante' "Elly" and "Apple". We absolutely love animals.
We love Summer and on weekends we try to be outdoors as much as possible. I enjoy movies, bbq with friends, I appreciate music, art and expositions etc.. We love to travel! Bags are always packed!
I enjoy being outdoors if the weather is permissive of that. At home, I enjoy spending time with my seven year old... Love to travel -anywhere, anytime.Tropical, warm preferred. Europe, Caribbean, Southeast Asian islands, FL and France/Italy-fancy.
Brown s the color...Target s the store for typical necessities. BBQ w friends. Hanging out w son. Window shopping. Tropical slurpies. Fresh manga. Boating, fishing in Bay or salt water. Music: pretty eclectic... enjoy anything especially oldies.
James Redfield - Celestine Prophecy - Enlightining Adventure/fiction in Machu Picchu, Peru. I am not really into reading like I used to before. I read literature and textbooks related to RN and children's first grade books &:)

" Nokia 6681 - Cellular phone with digital camera / digital player - GSM - white "
* Prices may differ from that shown
After owning this phone for around a year now i can safely say i am glad I bought it. Its features and applications are very extensive, particularly the ability to open word and excel documents on it. The bluetooth multiplayer on the Snake EX application is always good for a bit of fun as well. The 1.3 megapixel camera is reasonable, the flash certainly works well in very dark rooms making pictures as bright as day. The camera cover unlocks and locks the phone when opened which is useful for quick snappy pictures, but not so much when it slides open in your pocket and unlocks your phone to my own personal experiences, resulting in a couple of blank phone calls to my boss. The only other problem as mentioned is the operating system, I had the firmware upgraded to the most recent version as soon as i got it, but still it does have the urge to freeze occasionally. If too many applications are opened as well, an annoying popup is displayed saying the memory is full until you remove and replace the battery. But overall generally a neat phone which does all the basic features such as battery time and reception perfectly, my battery lasts generally a week with the amount I use it. Top notch.
The Nokia 6681 imaging smartphone is designed to put more multimedia power in your hands. View your images and video clips on the large 262,144-color screen; then edit, print, and share them with friends and family using email, Bluetooth wireless technology, or at an online blog. Listen to your favorite songs in stereo audio with the integrated music player, plus stream or download video and other multimedia content and store it on the removable MultiMediaCard (MMC).
