2.68/5 rDev -35.6%
corked and caged 750ml that my roommate got for Xmas and was not keen on trying. Thanks, Matt! You da man!
A- Carefully poured, as this has settled for about 10 months in the fridge. A huge fluffy head that fizzes down, beer is pale pale yellow.
S- Fruity, bready, nice floral notes (lilac).
T- Same as the nose, but with a lot of medicinal notes too. The inside of a pill bottle. Not my favorite. Cloves creep in and cloud out the floral/perfumey sweetness that I like.
M- Body is a bit thin, the finish is pretty clean, nix the medicinal notes and let's talk.
D- Moderate- Easy enough to drink but just not in my wheelhouse. A good beer but not for me. So it goes.

Heard so much about this beer and having been a BA for nearly four years, I cannot believe I am only now trying it for the first time.
The 12oz bottle poured into my pint glass a cloudy yellow orange colour with a snow white head probably three inches thick. Looks nice. Smell was good, but rather off for the style, I thought. Smell was more akin to a tripel than a farmhouse saison. The damp, musty, basement smell present in nearly every saison I have ever had is totally abscent in this one. Taste, too was far from a saison, IMO. Also, likely the worst thing about this is the detectable level of alcohol. To me, a farmhouse saison should be smooth and easy drinking, smell like a mouldy, damp basement, and have a rather pronounced tartness. This is bereft of any of the afore mentioned traits, and again, if I were just given this to drink, not knowing what it was, I'd probably enjoy it and exlaim, "I've had better tripels, but this one's not bad.." I don't know guys, for all the hype surrounding this one, I must admit, I'm quite dis-pleased with it. Perhaps I got a bad bottle.

Aromas are a bunch of upfront floral and spicy notes with pungent citrus. Dry pilsner bready biscuity malts are also detectable. Belgiany yeast is fairly apparent as well.
The taste is fairly aggressive for a saison (or at least what I prefer in my saisons). All kinds of things happening here. Alcohol isn't midden all that well and the esters aren't in balance with the hops, really sharp finish as well; really not a fan. Thick, yet extremely bubbly mouthfeel; carbonation is apparent for sure.
This is a real aggressive saison. I can tell it's extremely well-made, as Ommegang doesn't mess around when it comes to making good Belgian beer. I was a little put off by the rather strong alcoholic character, but perhaps that's how it should be. I admire the complexity and adventurous quality.

Golden and strong, light citrus aroma. This bottle had a heavy ammonia odor also, so my sample and evaluation may be tainted. Otherwise, another failed American attempt at a Belgian ale. However, I will say that this bottle's label is the most artistic and attractive that I've ever seen on a brew.

12 oz bottle. Smells kind of like a hefeweisen to me. I think I smell lemon, but I can't tell whether this is just because so many beers get served with a lemon slice in the US. Nose is a little richer second time around, a little earthier and more cloves.
Taste is a little flatter than I expected. Not that bright, falls more on the bitter side. Carbonation is out-of-control. Makes it hard to swirl around and get the full experience! One of the flavors in the aftertaste reminds me of a flat domestic lager. Little bit of tang on the tongue after a swallow. Tastes like it is high alcohol, and it turns out to be significantly high!
Overall: B-, not a big fan

This beer is full of funk and bubble gum, yeasty, doughy, a little too sour for a saison. definately farmy! but it may be better with food not an easy brew to drink alone unless you want half 3 philosophers and half duvel in the same glass :( sorry hut dissapointed. Tastes better with Food

Was pumped to give this one a go, I generally like Ommegang. Poured nice, tons of bubbles, tall head. Caught me off guard, required a more delicate pour than even most other belgians to moderate head size. Nice hazy gold/yellow color in the glass, appealing looking. Smelled like the real deal, very authentick belgian.
It was only once the beer left the glass and found its way onto my tongue that disappointment set in. Admittedly, for my first sip the beer was way too cold, so i let it sit for some time. Unfortunately i don't like how it opened up. Tart, bubbly, mildly sweet, citrusy, and earthy. It all sounds nice, except the tartness was too strong. Resulted in an extremely unbalanced flavor. Not to say the beer was terrible, it wasn't, however it could use significantly more strength from the earthy/malty notes. Tartness and acidity need to be toned down a bit. Noting the beer's high rating, it looks like i'm in the minority here, but so it goes. I'll stick with the 3 Philosophers next time I hit up Ommegang

12oz to Unibroue tulip, no best by date listed.
Pours a clear golden color with a huge puffy white head, lots of bubbles, highly carbonated it seems. Dusty sediment floats about. Settles at a thick bubbly cap leaving some lacing.
Pale pilsner malts jump from the nose first and foremost. Typical Belgian yeast, some sweet candi sugar, wet grass and lemony hops follow. Just the tiniest hints of funk and hay. The pilsner quality reminds me a little too much of an generic pale Euro lager but the smell really starts to open up nicely after a bit.
Taste has notes of lemon/citrus/grass throughout from the hops, Belgian yeast and some candi sugar. I found the scent to be more enjoyable. Some bready notes in the finish. High alcohol taste dominates (at the finish especially) and is noticeable right from the get-go. Although it does fade over time, it is ever-present giving the beer a bit of a distasteful, soapy medicinal feel. Mouthfeel is not nearly as carbonated as the appearance would hint towards, has a creamy oily feel to it, but the booziness just about kills it.
Kinda reminds me of Duvel in some ways (which makes sense), but I couldn't get into this one much. Feels too boozy and just heavy and uncomfortable when it reaches your guts. Flavors that were present didn't really leave me wanting more.

Poured a hazy yellow body with some carbonation present in the body. Has a white head that disipates quickly to form a film across the surface. The beer's aroma consists of Hops, some spices and yeast. The taste follows the aroma fairly well. However, the hops are more apparent in the taste. The beer has a froathy body that leads to a lingering residual sweetness that I don't like about American breweries takes on Belgian Beers. Slight Alcohol present in the warmth.
Can't say I was overly impressed with this beer. I wouldn't get it again.

Poured on tap, this beer was pale with very white creamy head with lacing that lasted through the entire glass. Very sweet smell with champagne-like odors. Taste was watery and sweet with white grape tastes and an odd perfume taste at the finish. Mouthfeel was light and dry and little aftertaste. I will say that it is very well balanced with the higher ABV. Drinkability was ok for a hot day beer, but not at the top of my list.

Bottled . Not a huge fan of this brewer so far. Yeasty choc/caramel, pretty sweet and a little bit syruppy to be honest, a very flat mouthfeel, with not much interesting happening, definitely on the sweeter side of the scale, i've yet to be won over by this brewer, but this isn't a bad beer though.

3/5 rDev -27.9%
A fairly cloudy, pale blonde pour. Very nice frothy while head with very good head retention, through the whole beer. Noticeable yeast remnants and carbonation.
Not very much working on the nose, a little plum, light malt
Not a ton going on as far as flavor profile notes as well. Light caramel, plum, light malt. Almost a nutty-pumpkin bread like aftertaste
Mouthfeel is pretty good. Good carbonation smooth most of the way with a little bitterness at the end.
Overall I'm a little confused with this beer. It takes like a blonde bock to me. Flavor notes along with the smell are pretty flat. It's not bad and is a decent spring type beer. But I'm just so confused with what it's trying to achieve cuz it's just so simple. It kind of tastes like it's a homebrewers first attempt at the style.

[video] Jim Cramer Quick Take: I'd Buy GE Here
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- General Electric (GE) reported earnings Friday, and TheStreet'sJim Cramer told Debra Borchardt the time to buy is now.
While GE earnings and revenue were essentially in line, industrial margins expanded and orders increased by 19%.
Cramer said the stock is up 10% on the year and pays out a 3% dividend yield. He's optimistic on GE thanks to its shift out of the complex financial services business and into simpler growth businesses such as oil drilling and jet engines.
Because of the switch, General Electric will be able to focus on businesses with expanding margins and increasing leverage and orders, Cramer said. "This one is going to take off," he predicted, noting a rebounding European economy will also help.Cramer concluded the stock is definitely a buy with its aggressive moves into the oil and aerospace markets, two industries with projected multi-year growth. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich.

Lawrence — Irene (Corradina Zuppardi) Salemi, 94, of Lawrence, passed away peacefully on June 18, 2014, at Lawrence General Hospital, surrounded by her beloved family. Irene was born in Lawrence, and was the daughter of the late Corrado and Concetta (Spadaro) Zuppardi.
A graduate of Lawrence High School, she also attended McIntosh Business School. Irene worked at the Lawrence Credit Bureau, Avco in Wilmington, and in later years, at the Turnstyle Department Store in Lawrence.
Irene was a loving wife, a great Mom and a wonderful Grandmother. Among her joys were a love of Italian cooking, reading mystery novels and singing. As a lifetime member of Corpus Christi Parish at Holy Rosary Church of Lawrence, she was a member and a soloist of the choir for many years. She was noted for performing the "Ave Maria" for many local funerals. Her beautiful renditions of "O Holy Night" at midnight Mass on Christmas Eve are among the many special memories that her family will keep forever.
Her greatest joys, however, were centered around her family, especially her grandchildren, Jennifer and Peter. They will long cherish wonderful memories of times spent at Salisbury Beach with Grandma and Grandpa, sleepovers and meals at Grandma's, and all the holidays they shared with them over the years. The devotion, love and generosity of their grandparents will stay with them always.
Irene was predeceased by her loving and devoted husband of 60 years, Louis Salemi; her brother, Louis Zuppardi; and her sisters, Mary Barbagallo and Josephine Cultrera. She is survived and will be sadly missed by her sons, Peter J. Salemi and his wife, Rosemary, of North Andover, and Charles Salemi and Joanne Tilas of Reading; her grandchildren, Jennifer and her husband, Brendan Ferrari of Hudson, Mass., and Peter L. Salemi of Chicago, Ill. She also leaves several loving nieces and nephews.

Your port is like a trip to Rockland State Hospital.
A lot of it looks alike, and you could patent the expression in about 13 of your 15 photos as the "Kayla199 Official llama Face". Vary up the concepts, shoot with more photographers, and for the Flying Spaghetti Monster's sake try some new facial expressions.
Your port is very much like sneaking down the railroad tracks to Norwich State Hospital. Which is not a bad thing - Norwich has some real gems, and you have more hits than misses. I really dig:
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/32138553 (18+)
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30603278 (18+)
But there's no thematic cohesion, and some dead weight that just doesn't fit in:
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/32410646 (18+)
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/31836240 (18+)
Get some consistency, and you'll be in a Kirkbride-plan asylum for sure!
Sup Garry, scared I'll call you on your misogynistic bullshit? Though no worries, we won't be placed in the same place. My work versus yours, remember?
With 89 photos in your port to wander through, I can't help but feel like I'm in Weston State Hospital. Your port is large and rambling, and there are some beautiful shots in it, but there's also so much junk that it's hard to find the soul. For example, you have this on the second line:
Followed on the next line by these two:
No. Don't. Even two would be too many; choose the best and ditch the rest. You don't need to post a photo from every shoot you go to, and we only need so many close-ups of your face before we really, truly know exactly what it looks like. Just like the repetitive rooms at Weston.
Burn!! Good call, I forgot those were all in there. Thanks!!! Fixed!
And if I posted an image from every shoot I go to, I would add over 300 images images a year.
Deleted 2/3 and an extra one for good measure. Thanks, I'll keep all that in mind.
Nope, you're not like a trip to Weston, you're like a trip to Norwich State Hospital. Your port is all. over. the. place. Which isn't necessarily bad - there are some killer buildings at N'orch, and you have some killer shots:
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/11865200 (18+)
But you also have some albatrosses around your neck:
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/20925753 (18+, I don't care if she was in Playboy, this diptych could be titled "I got to take pictures of this woman's boobs!!!")
And we definitely don't need two super-similar shots of this:
Just like Rockland State Hospital, one can see your potential, but you really have to struggle through your port to find your beauty. Take, for example:
This could be a nice image, but the cheeseball vignetting kills it for me. Kind of like how the latex (as opposed to lead) paint kills the morgue at Rockland for me. And shots like this:
Just don't belong in any model's port. It looks like it was processed on a phone. Don't use photos that look like they were taken and processed with phones. It won't help get you shoots. Which is most of your port. You can see your potential here, but you need to work with real photographers, and get some quality images.
A very nice, brief portfolio of lovely images which leaves me wanting more - much like Middletown State Hospital. Every photograph in your port looks different from every other photograph, which is awesome! You start strong with:
and many photographers here could take a lesson from the way in which you post two photos from the same shoot in a row, and they don't come off as needless duplicates:
A small port with little wrong with it; the only real standout piece of deadweight I saw was this:
No. But otherwise, it leaves me wanting more, so you've done what you needed to do - nice work!
Thank you kindly! I have taken all on board
Yeah, you definitely need a nice long stay at Greystone Park State Hospital. The port is strong with this one! Every photo stands on its own, there's a distinctive style and cohesiveness, strong concepts - very little to complain about here! Some of these almost seem like an indirect nod to Witkin, which ain't a bad thing in my book. Some of the image overlays are a little hit-you-in-the-face-with-symbolism; a little subtlety might benefit some of these, but for the most part you have one of the coolest ports I've seen in a long time, with every image a standout. Lose the slight hint of artifice, and you'll be in Buffalo State Hospital in no time!
No I am not scared of you" calling" me on anything real or imagined by yourself .I do however find your behavior stalkerish , and I will use this space to ask you to desist from sending me any more disengenuous personal messages when you next visit my city ( as you have in the past ) ...that is all , thank you
Mmmmmkay, so you don't post one from EVERY shoot, but you get my point. Cut your 80-something images down to 50 or 40, make sure every one pops, and you'll quickly jump up the asylum echelons.
I think you have raised some good points ..
Walking through your port is definitely like walking through Rockland State Hospital. I stroll down a ward, and see the same exact thing in each room. For example:
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/32365973 (18+)
And the two directly after it are basically the same shot of you nude by the same window, with some slightly different posing / processing. Cut that down to one. You have three in this outfit:
And not even sharp. Work with some better photographers, choose only the best photos (certainly no more than one of any look / situation / wardrobe), cut your port down, and you'll pop more!
Many thanks for both the diagnosis and commitment selection. It's true that I'm a bit of a wit and a poseur, I think you're right that I should try to cut it a bit closer to the bone. Best wishes.
You probably could use some Haldol. Unfortunately, they ran out years ago at Philadelphia State Hospital. Your port is pretty bad and repetitive to begin with - you have the same nude shot twice in a row (?) on the second row. Then we get to this:
A picture of your fucking car? That shit got some TruckNutz on it? 'Cause you're clearly trying to flex nuts. Get that shit outta here. And this shit:
A blurry photo of one of the most cheeseball concepts in the history of ever. No. Getting out of this port while the getting's good; can't wait to see it get torn down.
(And seriously, lose the car - you look like an asshole.)
Hehehe!! Wow!! Someone missed their meds today!!:-))))))
I'm assuming you did, otherwise you'd never think this was a good idea:
I've posted at least 3 threads here asking what should stay and go and been ignored. Guess ill just use the old fashion innie, meanie, minie, mo method
Thank you! I thought I'd leave at least one location shot for now, cause so much of my port is shot in the studio. I'll be shooting much more location stuff this summer, so hopefully there will be some good replacements.
Looking at your portfolio is like looking at a map of Norwich State Hospital. It's all over the place, both in terms of technical execution and conceptual quality. Some super-strong stuff here, like your avi, and this:
(Although I would crop out the greenery at bottom, it's distracting.) And this:
But then, there are some things weighing down your port as well, kinda like the laundry building and the Western Wards at Norwich. For example:
Lovely model, pose, concept - shitty lighting, too much contrast, etc. And this:
Just... awwww HELL no. You really have some great work in there. Separate the wheat from the chaff and you could be in Middletown State Hospital in no time!
Yeah, you got some lunacy going on, enough to get you sent to Greystone Park State Hospital. You have a nice, big, juicy port filled mostly with winners. There are a wide range of styles represented, but they're not disharmonious, but rather show a depth of talent. I'm loving this (I'm assuming) faux ambrotype:
And this looks like a still from a horror movie or a bad dream:
though this is by far my most favorite:
There are really only a few things that HAVE to go, like this one:
WTF? And this one:
Chopped her foot and it's too dark, which is too bad because it looks like a great location. But in general, your big, thick port is just brimming with awesome creativity and inspiration - kinda like good ole' Greystone, home to Woody Guthrie among others. You're in good company!
Sure am! And I hope you enjoy your stay at Norwich State Hospital, a place of varied quality and experience, much like your port. Like Salmon Hall and the Theatre, there are some real jaw-droppers around this abandoned campus, like your avi (WOW!) and these:
But then, like the laundry building and the nurses' cottage, there are some real forehead-slappers:
What the heck is with the goofy MS Paint doodle around your head? This image might be salvageable without, but sheesh!
Stanley Kubrick is spinning in his grave. Even out the quality of your port; delete the weak stuff and get everything up to the level of your avi and many of your other images, and you'll quickly find yourself transferred to Middletown State Hospital!
Like wandering the halls of Rockland State Hospital and seeing the same room over and over again, looking at your port shows the same expression in almost every photograph. You need to learn to emote something other than "I'm pouty and I know it"! This shot is pretty cool (as is the lovely old truck):
But you don't need two more with the same truck in your port! Cut your port down a lot, work on your expressions, shoot with some better photogs, and you'll get transferred to a more upscale abandoned asylum soon enough!

Keker & Van Nest represents plaintiffs and defendants in a broad range of commercial disputes. This representation includes federal and state court litigation, arbitrations, mediations, and appeals.
Google Inc. • Genentech, Inc. • McKesson Corporation • Sutter Health • Impax Laboratories, Inc. • Univision Communications • Intel Corp. • Comcast Cable Communications LLC • Electronic Arts Inc.
Chambers' Commercial Litigation rankings list Keker & Van Nest as a Band 1 firm in California, and John Keker and Robert Van Nest as two of the state's top commercial litigators.
Best Lawyers in America's Commercial Litigation category includes Christa Anderson, Jeffrey Chanin, Susan Harriman, Christopher Kearney, Jan Nielsen Little, and Jon Streeter.
United States v. McKesson Corporation: We defeated the government's six-year False Claims Act case against McKesson Corporation and one of its subsidiaries. The government had sought nearly a billion dollars in penalties and damages based on allegations that a McKesson subsidiary submitted "legally false" Medicare insurance reimbursement claims by violating Medicare supplier standards and charging less than fair-market value for billing services in exchange for product sales. We first secured a dismissal of the Qui Tam Relator who initiated this case, a decision that the Fifth Circuit affirmed on appeal. We then won summary adjudication on all claims relating to alleged violations of Medicare supplier standards. Finally, after a three-week bench trial, we prevailed on all remaining claims at trial.
American Medical Response Inc. et al. v. Paramedics Plus, et al.: We defended Paramedics Plus from American Medical Response's (AMR) claims of anticompetitive unfair business practices. After losing the competitive bidding process for Alameda County's emergency medical services transportation contract to its much smaller rival Paramedics Plus, AMR accused our client of violating California's predatory pricing law, Business & Professions Code Section 17043, in its bid to win the 911 ambulance contract. Despite a minimal amount of precedent, we were able to preserve the statute's intent, which is to safeguard healthy competition by protecting smaller companies from larger rivals. We received a unanimous 12-0 jury verdict in favor of our client.
Revance Therapeutics, Inc. v. Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation: We represented Revance, a biotechnology company which develops next-generation dermatology products and therapeutic medicines, in a Delaware Chancery Court bench trial. The trial determined Revance's worldwide rights to its injectable botulinum toxin product, as well as its ground-breaking topical botox product. Days after the trial, we finalized a settlement which returned all global rights to develop and commercialize both products across all indications to Revance, and resolved all outstanding litigation between the companies.
City and County of San Francisco v. Music Concourse Community Partnership: We successfully defended the Music Concourse Community Partnership from two consolidated actions. The actions sought to halt the creation of a $50 million underground parking facility in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. After two bench trials, the court declined to issue an injunction, which the California Court of Appeal affirmed.
City of Hope National Medical Center v. Genentech, Inc.: We represented Genentech in a breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty action. In the first trial, the jury hung 7-5 in favor of Genentech. In the retrial, the jury awarded compensatory and punitive damages. The California Supreme Court reversed the breach of fiduciary duty verdict, thereby throwing out the $200 million punitive-damages award.
Commercial Property v. Mortgage Corporation: We represented the owners of a Silicon Valley commercial office building in a dispute over unlawful mortgage servicing practices. We won a complete victory at the jury trial, collecting a verdict of $7.5 million in actual damages plus $30 million in punitive damages. The case was favorably settled prior to appeal.
Company Founders v. Majority Shareholder: We represented the founders of a biofuel start-up in an action brought by its majority shareholder and certain board members as a derivative action for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. We won a dismissal of the derivative action on demurrer, and achieved a substantial settlement for our clients of their affirmative claims.
Golden State Warriors v. Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum: We represented the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority in a series of disputes with the coliseum's professional basketball team. These disputes, involving tens of millions of dollars, arose over more than ten years and involved miscellaneous claims and cross-claims. Over the course of four arbitrations, we collected $32.25 million for our client.
Plaintiff v. Jenner Biotherapies, Inc.: We defended Jenner Biotherapies and one of its significant investors from breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud and negligence claims. During a two-week jury trial, the federal court threw out five of the seven claims. The jury split on the remaining two claims, and awarded a fraction of the plaintiff's original demand.
Televisa v. Univision Communications: We represented Univision, the country's leading Spanish language television network, in a breach of contract jury trial. Televisa, a Mexican multimedia conglomerate which supplied Univision with its most popular Spanish language programs, attempted to terminate a long-term exclusive licensing agreement and sought more than $100 million in damages. The case was settled during trial on favorable terms. We also represented Univision in a bench trial which sought declaratory judgment to prevent Televisa from broadcasting over the Internet the same highly popular programs that it exclusively licensed to Univision. We won a complete victory at trial.
San Mateo School Districts v. San Mateo County: We represented San Mateo County and its former treasurer against a $20 million suit brought by a group of San Mateo County school districts. Following the 2008 Lehman Brothers bankruptcy—in the midst of the nationwide financial crisis—plaintiffs filed suit against the County, alleging officials violated their fiduciary duties by investing too heavily in Lehman holdings. However we convinced a San Francisco Superior Court judge to dismiss the case on the grounds that the complaint failed to comply with state and county laws governing lawsuits against public entities.

Legendary filmmaker [[Performer~P116407~Wim Wenders~wimwenders]] returns to the screen with this loosely structured murder mystery. The Million Dollar Hotel unites Wender's obsession with cool music, lost souls, and American trash culture. Set in 2001, the film opens with Tom Tom ([[Performer~P195669~Jeremy Davies~jeremydavies]]) taking a flying leap off the roof of the Million Dollar Hotel, an ironically titled dive in the seedy section of L.A. Told in an extended flashback, Tom Tom recounts the murder...more

Under the Skin 2013
I can easily see why some would dislike Under the Skin. I admit that even I have to be in the right mood for these types of films, otherwise I just find them extremely dull.
While it wasn't a "fun" watch, I found it to be very mesmerising and beautifully shot. The score was perfect too. And as for Scarlett... incredible!
I think it definitely needs multiple viewings before I fully understand it though. Overall, this is one blind-buy I wasn't at all disappointed with.
RoboCop 2014
Surprised to say I actually found this to be quite entertaining. Thankfully it wasn't a straight up remake, so it wasn't as predictable as I'd expected. The action was pretty well done and therefore a lot of fun, although a sprinting RoboCop did look somewhat ridiculous. An enjoyable ride overall.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World 2010

The Wolf of Wall Street 2013
As expected, The Wolf of Wall Street is an incredible film. Dare I say, it's possibly Scorsese's most entertaining (and without a doubt funniest) film to date. As usual, DiCaprio gives it his all and delivers a stellar performance, as do the rest of the cast. So, you may ask, why didn't I give it the full 5 stars? And the answer would be: continuity errors! There's one at every turn, and they're quite noticeable, too. From a broken glass…

Photo Credit: MTV
There's no place like home. Like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, the beloved miscreants of MTV's Jersey Shore learned that lesson last season, when the cast relocated to Italy. "There was a lot of tension in [Italy], because we were away from our friends, away from our family, so all we had was each other -- that's it," Pauly D told MTV news last month.
And that's made their season 5 return to Seaside Heights, N.J., all the more sweet. This season's shenanigans, which begin Thursday, Jan. 5, at 10 p.m. ET, will feature less fighting and more partying. "You'll actually see how much we miss Jersey," said Pauly in a later MTV News interview. "Stuff you take for granted on a day-to-day basis, that's what we wanted to do. Haircut, gym, tanning." And according to Vinny, "We wanted easy girls."
Clearly, the group of friends will continue on as usual, making no apologies for who they are. It's already earned them tons of cash, from speaking engagements to record deals and TV guest spots to product endorsements.
So what can we expect this season from Snooki, Vinny, Deena, Pauly D, The Situation, J-Woww, Ronnie and Sammi? Here are a few tidbits.
Sammi and Ronnie have finally broken up. "You're not going to see too much drama with us," Sammi told the Chicago Sun-Times.
As for Snooki, she's ready to show off her hot, slimmed-down bod. "She looks great and she knows it," Vinny told the paper. "She's lost a lot of weight and she's looking like a little glamour model lately. That's definitely different from the Snooki we're used to."
The Situation will threaten to break up Snooki's relationship with boyfriend Jionni by revealing their pre-Italy hook-up. "Mike has always been that character -- kind of an egomaniac, kind of mischievous, a snake in the grass," dished Vinny to the Sun-Times. "Do I think it's 100 percent real? No, but that's the character he has on the show. It's who he is in that scenario. He's actually a good kid deep down."
Pauly D will hook up with Snooki's best friend, Ryder, who has made guest appearances throughout the show's run. As Vinny helpfully points out, Ryder is now just one roommate away from "guido bingo." (That is, sleeping with four guys in one house.) Eww.
Vinny himself will bow out from the season briefly, though he hasn't left the show. "I was just exhausted and needed a break," he said. "There's only so much partying I can do before I start to need different things."
Luckily for Jersey Shore fans, this doesn't seem to be a problem for the rest of the gang.
In case you haven't seen this yet, here's the trailer for the upcoming season, just to get you excited for tonight!

The Patenting Behavior of Academic Founders
AbstractThis study explores why academic entrepreneurs patent their inventions before and after creating a firm. Drawing on start-up data combined with patent data, we specifically examine the impact of five, relatively under-researched factors (scientific field, pace of technological development, technological uncertainty, entrepreneurial orientation, and patent effectiveness. The study shows that some scientific fields, technological uncertainty, and patent effectiveness are positively related to patent propensity, both before and after founding. The effects of pace of technological development and entrepreneurial orientation were timespecific. Our study suggests that patenting by academic entrepreneurs is driven by special rationales and that prior research on full-time scientists and established firms does not necessarily generalize to them. We discuss the implications of our findings both in terms of contribution to the current literature and technology transfer policies. --

The Lake District Sights
Mapu Lahual
Mapu Lahual Review
One of Osorno's main attractions is this network of indigenous parks spread over nine Huilluiche Indian communities on the Pacific coast, amid 50,000 hectares of temperate rainforest. The communities offer four tour programs, from one to seven days in duration. However you choose to see these parks, you will find some of the most spectacular nature areas in Chile. In addition, you will get a firsthand look at indigenous culture and have the opportunity to buy native handicrafts.

TEAMS: Golden State Warriors, Oklahoma City Thunder
OKLAHOMA CITY -- Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson has no problem admitting the Thunder provide the blueprint for what he wants his team to become. "This is certainly a model," Jackson said. "They had a tough time early on, winning 20-something games and going through the process. But give this front office, ownership, coaching staff a lot of credit. They stayed through to the process. They didn't become impatient. Now they have a team that is going to be in the hunt for a long time to come." The problem for the Warriors is that they don't have a Kevin Durant or a Russell Westbrook to build around just yet, and that difference was apparent Sunday when Oklahoma City beat Golden State 119-109 at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. Durant finished with 25 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists for the first triple-double of his career. "They have two home run hitters in their lineup," Jackson said. "Two of the best in the business at any ...

A family statue monument will soon be among the many tributes to veterans at the Howard County Veterans Memorial at Darrough Chapel Park.
Jerry Paul, president of the Howard County Veterans Memorial Corp., said the monument will feature a bronze sculpture of several family members reaching out to a service member.
"I want you to feel that family," he said of his design. "I want you to feel that anguish. I want it to be as real as possible."
The veterans' memorial, located at 600 S. Goyer Road, features the names of men and women from Howard County who died in the Civil War, Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II, Korea and Vietnam as well as the war on terrorism.
Well-known sculptor, Benjamin Victor of California, is expected to begin sculpting the new statue this week.
The HCVC raised $100,000 through area veterans' organizations, fundraisers and donations for the landscaping and foundation for the monument, but more is needed to complete the final phase, which he estimated at $128,000.
History of the Howard County Veterans Memorial
In 1997, Vietnam Veteran Roger Roe had a dream of having a memorial dedicated to all Howard County veterans. His dream became a reality in 1998 with the help of his friends from UAW Local 292. In partnership with local government and business leaders the Howard County Veterans Memorial Corporation was formed in 1999.
Drawing the Kokomo Parks Department into the endeavor, Darrough Chapel Park was chosen as the site for the new monument. Funds for the memorial were generated by sending out flyers to the community and selling T-shirts, jackets and bricks; the memorial was completed Sept. 17, 2000.
On May 28, 2007, the HCVMC board of directors dedicated a new addition to the memorial in honor of the brave young men from Howard County who lost their lives helping to fight the war on terrorism .
Phase III of the memorial, Allegiance Rock, was dedicated May 26, 2008. The rock and new walkway called POW/MIA walk was created by graphic designer Chad McCarter.
FOR MORE INFORMATION: Donations can be made by check or money order to the Howard County Veteran's Memorial, P.O. Box 3037, Kokomo, IN. 46904-3037.For more information about the Howard County Veterans Memorial Corp. log on to www.hcvm.com

Executive Summary: The National Mediation Board (NMB) has published an updated Strategic Plan. This follows a December 2013 report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) faulting the previous 2012 Plan. Of particular interest to air carriers, the NMB's Plan highlights Board objectives in representation cases and collective bargaining mediation.
Representation Cases
In the area of representation or "R" cases, the Board identified the efficient investigation and resolution of disputes as its primary goal. In furtherance of this goal, the Board states that it will:
In addition, the Board will consider the use of voice recognition software and "other cost and time saving" measures for taking employee statements during interference investigations.
Collective Bargaining Mediation
While the Board cites statistical analysis indicating that, on average, mediation cases are completed within 18 months and with 50 days of work "at the table," it acknowledges that the reality for many parties does not fit this statistical average.
The Plan acknowledges the on-going issue with tentative agreement ratification failures, and identifies social media campaigns as a particular challenge. To that end, the Board states that it will be working with labor and management to establish "Best Practices For Contract Ratification" that include advice on handling social media.
On the issue of Board resources, the Strategic Plan notes the challenges that increasing travel costs place on traditional "face to face" interaction and states that the Board will continue to examine the integration of "on-line meetings" and related avenues to deliver services. Indeed, one of the annual goals will be for at least 50 percent of mediators to use "online dispute resolution" technology in one or more cases.
With respect to day-to-day case management, the Board highlights the following measures:
A full copy of the NMB's FY 2014 – FY 2019 Strategic Plan may be found at the Board's recently refurbished website: www.nmb.gov.

Earlier, it was reported that former Chicago Bears head coach Lovie Smith had interviewed for the vacant USC coaching job. However, it looks like that may not be the case.
Smith told Jay Glazer of FOX Sports, via Pro Football Talk, that he was taken aback by CBS's Jason La Canfora's report that he had interviewed for the job. Smith reportedly told Glazer that he absolutely did not interview for the job, and that he has no interest in the job.
The USC Trojans head coaching position is considered one of the best jobs in all of college football, and it is believed USC wants a big-name head coach. The position was previously held by Lane Kiffin, who was fired after the Trojans opened the season at 3-2. Ed Orgeron is currently USC's interim coach.
It was also previously reported that former NFL head coaches Tony Dungy and Jack Del Rio were interviewed for the position. However, it was later revealed that both had been contacted by an imposter posing to be a USC representative.
At this point, any USC head coaching news should probably be taken with a grain of salt.

Celebrating culture in the Circle
Published: Thursday, October 11, 2012 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 9, 2012 at 10:17 a.m.
After eight years of bringing diversity to Ocala's downtown square, the annual Ocala Cultural Festival this year moves to new digs a couple of blocks away: Citizens' Circle at City Hall.
Ocala Cultural Festival
When: From 1 to 8 p.m. Saturday
Where: Citizens' Circle at City Hall, Fort King Street and Osceola Avenue
Admission: Free
Information: 368-5517
"We're trying to make good use of a new place to host this," says Stan Creel, coordinator of special events for Ocala. "And it's pretty, and it's big."
Not to mention, with the festivities in City Hall's backyard, there's no need to block off the streets around the downtown square during the festival's hours, 1 to 8 p.m. Saturday.
The Cultural Festival caps the annual One Ocala, One America week. Tonight is the free Kids Involved in Diversity social starting at 6 p.m. at the E.D. Croskey Recreation Center, 1510 NW Fourth St.
And at dusk — about 8 p.m. — Friday is the free Movie in Tuscawilla Park, "Guess Who?"
Popcorn and beverages are provided, but anyone coming is encouraged to bring their own chairs or blankets.
As in its previous years, Saturday's Cultural Festival is a day for the community to revel in the community's various cultures, Creel says.
"We try to pull in unique and diverse groups in our community," he continues. "This is who is a part of our community, what we're made up from."
The party will represent many cultures, including African, Polynesian, Asian, Indian and American Indian.
Millie Blonder originally is from New York but long has studied the dance and culture of Egypt and the Middle East. Students from her classes at the Community Technical & Adult Education center plan to present dances from Egypt.
Though colloquially referred to in the United States as "belly dance," these are classical folkloric and Oriental dances from Arabic lands, she says.
"The folkloric are peasant dances," Blonder adds. "They bring in all of their culture." Many of the movements are symbolic, much like the hand movements in Hawaiian hulas.
She says she spent several weeks living in Egypt in 1980 to learn the Arabic dances and soak up some culture that she now passes along to her students. "Knowing the culture explains why we make certain movements," explains the one-time protégé of renowned Middle Eastern dance instructor Ibrahim Farrah.
Her students have performed at several of the cultural festivals over the years. New this year is the dance team from Beth Judah Ephraim and Companions, a Messianic Jewish group in Belleview.
Messianic Judaism embraces the religion's roots and heritage while recognizing "the completeness of the new promise through Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah," notes the group's website.
"We perform Israeli folk dances, traditional Jewish folk dances and worship music," says Arely Martinez with the dance group. "This is the first time we're participating in the festival in Ocala, though we've performed in Belleview."
Many participating groups are old favorites such as the youths from the India Association of North Central Florida. The group has participated in the festival from the beginning.
These teens — called "Diyas" or "lamplights," says Dr. Tina Chandra — sell Indian foods and crafts as well as perform various Indian dances in traditional clothing. It's a way, she adds, "to promote our culture, our pride in it, to raise awareness and to do things to give back to Ocala.
"This is their baby."
Moreover, sharing their culture with others helps them keep in touch with their own cultural roots, Chandra says. The association membership boasts about 250 active families.
India falls into the Census Bureau's Asian category, and, according to the Census Bureau, 1.4 percent of Marion County's population is Asian. The sub-continent of India has a population of 1.2 billion, according to World Bank figures, the second largest nation in the world.
At least half of the money raised by the Diyas at the festival is given to various charities; this year the kids selected cancer research for children, Chandra says.
"It's important to do what we can to give back," she adds, "and to show how supportive we are to each other and to others. We don't have to be asked, we're just there, a very giving group to humankind."

This is not just a humanitarian imperative; it is in all our interests to act. In the globalised 21st Century conflicts are not easily contained by borders. As the Stern Review made clear, tackling climate change will ultimately be cheaper than allowing it to proceed unchecked. But it is the human cost of these crises, the children of Gaza, the homeless Philippines and the South Sudanese families who do not know where their next meal is coming from that really demand our action. The UK public have shown they are up to the task; it is time for world leaders to do likewise.
This week, the British Red Cross is launching a long-term recovery programme in the Philippines as the disaster-prone country continues to recover from super-storm Haiyan and braces itself for the onslaught of this year's typhoon season. But as we mark six months since the typhoon hit, many organisations specialising in emergency response are leaving and the levels of support have dwindled, even though the needs remain immense.
Taking full advantage of the opportunity for peace in the Philippines will require a sustained effort on the part of central and local governments, by the rebel movements, as well as in civil society and the business community, over many years. Some of the factors they will need to take into account were identified at by our taxi driver last night.
Right this second all around the world, millions of children are in danger. Huge numbers of children are caught up in emergencies, like conflicts in Syria and South Sudan and natural disasters like Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. In the Philippines 1.7million children were forced from their homes when the Typhoon swept through their communities. I saw myself how children's lives have been destroyed and how they are slowly recovering with the help of UNICEF. As a father, it was a moving experience and the memories of the children I met will stay with me for the rest of my life.
With typhoon Haiyan but a distant memory for most people outside the Philippines, reports emerged this week of a stand-off on one of the islands most seriously affected, which is keeping thousands from being re-housed. There are still 50,000 people in Tacloban whose homes were destroyed or are unsafe to live in. Despite a pledge from the mayor to re-house everyone by December, the necessary funds to make that happen have not been forthcoming from the Philippine government. Why? A decades-old feud between two political families
As a young woman living with a disability in a disaster-affected community Mavie faces even more challenges than most - Plan works hard to ensure that the rights and needs of children like Mavie are taken into account when planning for, and responding to, disasters like Typhoon Haiyan.As a young woman living with a disability in a disaster-affected community Mavie faces even more challenges than most - Plan works hard to ensure that the rights and needs of children like Mavie are taken into account when planning for, and responding to, disasters like Typhoon Haiyan.
While the world focused on the Geneva II Conference on Syria, worried about the apparent intractability of that conflict, a very different sort of development has taken place in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. On Saturday the Government of the Philippines and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front concluded sixteen years of negotiations seeking to putting an end to an armed conflict, which originated in 1968.
So, do we write off countries like the Philippines as simply 'disaster-prone', and ready our emergency relief teams for the next Haiyan? Absolutely not. We must act now on the knowledge that climate change is driving an increase in extreme weather, and provide better protection against the impact of climate-related disasters.
The tragedy and loss brought on by the devastating Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines has triggered an overflow of generosity from the British public along with acres of media coverage. However quietly fading away from the daily headlines, Syria is also watching its children's futures cruelly slip away from them.

- Suits Midseason Finale: Where Does Louis Go From Here?
By Rebecca Silverstein, with reporting by Paris Hampton
As a correspondent for E!'s red carpet and co-host of "Fashion Police," Kelly Osbourne knows a thing or two about fashion. So it's no surprise that we caught her sitting front and center at Badgley Mischka's show during Fashion Week. Read on as Kelly chats about what it's like to critique other celebs' style, how she decided to go gray and more.
RELATED: See more celebs at Fashion Week
Wonderwall: What brings you to Fashion Week?
Kelly Osbourne: I'm definitely not here as a critic. I'm here as an admirer of all fashion. Just to sit at in the front row at Fashion Week is so much fun.
WW: Is it hard for you to talk about other celebrities' fashion?
KO: I would never say something [about] anybody that I wouldn't say to their face. That is something I live by, or else I'd be a hypocrite. What I do on E!'s red carpet is completely different from what I do on "Fashion Police." I'm not there to try and assassinate anybody.
RELATED: Check out the Grammys' biggest fashion hits and misses
WW: How do you deal with being mean on "Fashion Police"?
KO: Joan is a comedian, and I want to make sure that we make fun of ourselves. I am not there to make jokes; Joan is.
WW: Have you seen Joan yet?
KO: No. Where is that b----? She said she'd be with me today, and I can't find her anywhere.
RELATED: Kelly and Miley, plus more odd Hollywood friendships
WW: Who are you excited to see at the Oscars?
KO: Everybody. That's the whole fun of awards season for me, and it's also the hardest part of my job because I never like to call someone out for looking bad, but it is my job. But it's one of those things where, when someone is on a red carpet and they feel great, if I don't like the dress, that's not what matters. It creates an atmosphere, and it's just amazing. And to be a part of all of that is so much fun for me. I can't even believe it's work!
WW: Who do you think will dress well, and who won't?
KO: You never know. Sometimes people kind of dress down, and then the Oscars hit and they pull out all the stops.

WW: How do you feel in this dress?
KO: I love this dress! I added the sleeves. [Badgley Mischka] sent me three dresses, and I got to pick which ones, which was even more of an honor. I don't like not having a sleeve because then you get that weird thing under your armpit, and it is really not attractive. So I took these sleeves off another dress and sewed them on. I hope they don't get made at me!
WW: You wore Badgley Mischka to the SAG Awards too, right?
KO: When I got into my hotel room, Badgley Mischka had framed a sketch of the dress they made me for the SAG Awards and signed it. I cried and had a full-on fashion moment.
WW: Who are your shoes by?
KO: They're Giuseppe Zanotti. I'm really lacking in the height department, so anything with a platform is good.

WW: Your hair looks great! What inspired you to do this color?
KO: Well, I've done different shades of gray before. But basically, when I was about 12 years old and I first moved to America, my sister had loads of fashion magazines. I would go and sneak into her room and find them. Because I really didn't understand it, I was such a tomboy. But I found this one fashion spread and it was of six supermodels with six [old] ladies, and each model had the same gray rinse as the old lady that sat next to her, and they were all drinking tea. I still have the clipping so my mission is to go through every single one of them. So there are more to come.
WW: What's the next one?
KO: I don't know!
RELATED: 'DWTS' body transformations
WW: How do you stay fit?
KO: It's not dieting, it's life changing. You eat right, you work out, and that is all you have to do. It's long, and it's boring, and it sucks, but that is the only way to do it.
WW: What is the best diet advice you've ever gotten?
KO: Never deprive yourself of anything because then you get angry about it. And that's why I think the fashion world is miserable because they are all bloody hungry.
