it's weird how straight boys will find out that a girl is bisexual and then think that girl wants to fuck them with another girl. And if they find out a guy is gay they think that guy wants to fuck them.
No one wants to have sex with you. You are are not cute. At all.
I know this is a large generalisation but this actually does happen due to a lot of ignorance and lack of education and just plain common sense. I admit there was a time when I had similar attitudes and it disgusts me.

Louise Stanton-Masten named new Washington Tourism Alliance executive director
Send this story to a friend
- Kirsten Johnson
- Staff Writer- Puget Sound Business Journal
The Washington Tourism Alliance (WTA) named Louise Stanton-Masten, former Everett Area Chamber of Commerce CEO, as its new executive director Tuesday.
Stanton-Masten is replacing Suzanne Fletcher, who stepped down in October as the Alliance's first executive director after serving her one-year contract.
Stanton-Masten was president and CEO of the Everett Area Chamber of Commerce from 2001 to 2011 and served on the Washington Chamber of Commerce Executives board of directors for the past six years. She was board chairman between 2011 and 2012.
Since January, Stanton-Masten has resumed management of her own consultancy, Stanton-Masten Consulting.
"Tourism is a $16 billion industry, responsible for more than 150,000 jobs in Washington State," Stanton-Masten said in a statement. "While building upon the successes of the WTA over the past year, we'll be aggressively working to establish a long-term and sustainable funding model for statewide tourism marketing and promotion in the future."
The WTA was formed in March 2011 as an effort to preserve Washington's tourism industry after the Washington State Tourism office announced its closure for June 2011. In July 2011, the WTA became the official tourism marketing organization in the state.
The WTA wants to levy a compulsory assessment on tourism businesses to help fund the promotion of tourism in the state.

The growing weight of the emerging economies in the world economy and governance. The case of the BRICs
AbstractThis paper examines the growing relevance of emerging and developing economies for the global economy, paying special attention to the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China). The paper also reviews the participation of these countries in some key multilateral institutions for global governance, and compares it to its actual economic weight. An enhanced role in the decision making process of these multilateral institutions is indeed one of the primary objectives of the BRIC group. Finally we elaborate on some other global questions in which these countries also have common interests -like international reserves accumulation, international trade and climate change negotiations- and in which their increased participation has to go hand in hand with a greater consideration of collective interests.

The Maine Public Broadcasting Network announces the launch of the Maine Calling Book Club, a new monthly segment on MPBN's noon-day radio program Maine Calling airing Mondays through Thursdays each week from 12:00 to 1:00 pm.
The Maine Public Broadcasting Network announces two additional ways for basketball fans across the state to help support MPBN's coverage and broadcast of the Maine Principals' Association Invitational High School Basketball Tournament. MPBN is bringing back the High 5 initiative where viewers can go online and give MPBN a "High 5" donation of five or ten dollars and once again MPBN is offering fans the opportunity to purchase tournament game DVDs.
The Maine Public Broadcasting Network announces two free screenings of the Season 6 premiere of Doc Martin before the show is broadcast across the state. The first event will be held at the Port City Music Hall in Portland on Wednesday, February 26th and the second screening will take place at The GRAND in Ellsworth on Thursday, March 6th. Fans of the show can go to MPBN.NET for details on how to secure tickets.
The Maine Public Broadcasting Network announces a change in its coverage of the 2014 Maine Principals' Association Invitational High School Basketball Tournament. MPBN has been informed by Time Warner Cable that it has been unable to come to an agreement to continue its partnership with the Cumberland County Civic Center and is therefore unable to install equipment needed to produce the games in Portland. As a result, MPBN will not be provided with the Boys Class A Championship and the Girls Class A Championship signals needed to broadcast these two games state-wide as scheduled on March 1st.
The Maine Public Broadcasting Network announces the selection of Robin Rilette as MPBN"s new Music Director and host of MPBN"s Morning Classical Music program. The result of a comprehensive national search, Rilette was vetted by MPBN staff in Bangor and Portland, community leaders in Maine, and members of arts organizations across the state. Rilette is expected to join MPBN in early February and immediately take over the Morning Classical host position.

A pretty straightforward introduction by Goldberg begins the feature length documentary, which focuses on "Moms" life, born Loretta Mary Aiken, as an entertainer. There is some very amusing footage shown throughout, along with Mabley's punchlines captioned against a black screen in creatively designed text.
I Got Somethin' to Tell You is told through several celebrated comedians and entertainers, including Arsenio Hall, Eddie Murphy, Joan Rivers, Sydney Poitier, Harry Belafonte, Jerry Stiller, Kathy Griffin, Quincy Jones among a few others, who celebrate the late comedic icon and first female comedian pioneer during the Civil Rights Movement.
Mabley inspired and influenced many entertainers through her legacy, which encompassed a unique talent and "subtle" yet resounding political voice. In one key scene, Mabley is shown with Sammy Davis Jr. at a Playboy Mansion TV special with Hugh Hefner and "bunnies". Davis requests Mabley to do an impromptu performance of "Abraham, Martin & John", an emotional tribute song to Lincoln, Dr. King and John and Bobby Kennedy. Mabley's rendition is quite stirring; everyone in that scene was clearly moved.
Other than that, the documentary makes for pretty light-hearted, entertaining and easy viewing. Although, mentioned briefly by Goldberg when she's in conversation with Arsenio Hall, is the fact that Mabley was raped twice in her youth. Both of those instances led to pregnancies, and Mabley gave up both children for adoption. Comedians are said to have gone through much suffering; comedy gives most, if not all, an escape from past traumatic events. Besides stating the aforementioned in their conversation, Goldberg does not elaborate on Mabley's personal life.
Another known and intriguing fact about Mabley is that she came out as a lesbian at the age of 27. Offstage, when she wasn't in "Moms" character, Mabley dressed as a man and called herself Jackie Mabley. Goldberg states this fact in one scene along with a couple of photographs. The director tells us that no one talked about it, because during that time "it was nobody's business." Well, it isn't our business either apparently because the topic isn't broached again.
There is much left unanswered. Upon some research after the screening, I came across a NY Times article, which reported, back in 1989, that late stage actress Clarice Taylor had "traveled all over the country, tracking down and interviewing surviving members of Moms Mabley's family and researching the life of the late black comedienne." The article also mentions that Mabley, who was the great-granddaughter of a slave and a white man, lost both of her parents at a young age: her fireman father died after a fire engine exploded and her mother was run over and killed by a truck on Christmas Day, while on her way home from Church.
However, none of these details are mentioned in Somethin' to Tell You, which would have made for a more compelling documentary overall. Mabley had four surviving children; were any of them consulted? None of them appear in the documentary. Isn't it ironic that her celebrity name is "Moms"?
Mabley was one of the greatest comedians of our time, who provided powerful comic relief during the Civil Rights Movement. Her homely appearance and no-holds- bar, raunchy punchlines, paved the way for many comedians who followed after, which are enough reasons to go watch I Got Somethin' To Tell You. Yet, those same reasons seem to only scratch the surface of who she really was. We remember the entertainer, but who was the clever woman behind the very hilarious "Moms" character in the grandmother house robe?
ALM | April 21, 2013 10:32 PM
My goodness. I had no idea that she went through all of that trauma with her pregnancies and her parents' deaths. It's a miracle that she was able to keep pushing after all of that. Praise the Lord
JMac | April 21, 2013 5:43 PM
I too wonder what else would (or should) have been revealed about Mabley's sexual preferences in any documentary? Do you want to see pictures of her out with other women, excerpts of love letters, estimates of how many women she slept with? Just as with the whole Queen Latifah mess, some people really need to step back and stop expecting a box seat for a nosy exposition into a celebrity's private life, esp. when that celebrity has made a concerted effort to separate stage/public life from their personal life. I still don't understand the fascination because I can completely accept that -whether some like it or not - it really is no one's business unless and until that person makes it our business. Heck, even then it still isn't our business and no one should feel pressure to put information out there that they don't want attention to.
I'll be watching the doc when it reaches HBO. I don't know much about Moms Mabley except from hearing a few of her later routines. What little I do know came from my parents (in their 70s) and watching shows that are no longer on the air and are never chosen to be re-aired for the future generations. It is greatly needed.
TAZ | April 21, 2013 12:53 PM
I agree with Langston that any quality documentary feature about Moms Mabley is very needed.
It seems we are a bit to critical about the work that comes out and I mean that from the standpoint of whether it meets our expectation....what we want to see vice the vision and goal of the film maker. If this documentary is about the career of Moms Mabley, then our expectation should not be beyond that. I am also glad her personal life is not being exploited. Getting into her life, will not and does not, make our lives better....therefore its only purpose is not really kind in spirit in any way.
Langston | April 21, 2013 10:45 AM
Of course most of us have yet to view this film, but for the general public, any quality documentary feature about Moms Mabley is so very needed. And that's not to suggest that Vanessa's review was negative, but there is a narrative thread that Ms. Goldberg was following. If those other "facts" were not included, they probably didn't fit. Whoopi has been developing this for years. At one point, I believe she was looking to star as Moms in a narrative feature. I think that a documentary feature actually serves her legacy the most, however, and I really look forward to seeing it when it airs on HBO.
whoopi | April 21, 2013 9:39 AM
the reason they are not in the doc. is because they are DEAD. Clarice Taylor may have gone to find moms daughters but none of them are still living. the stories of Moms being raped according to moms sister-in law were not true. i guess you think i didnt do my homework, or that i was just gonna put stuff in true or not.
also what else did you want said about Moms being gay? what were you dying to know that you were left so bereft?

"However, none of these details are mentioned in Somethin' to Tell You, which would have made for a more compelling documentary overall."
Yeah, and I want to know who came up with the words "Chitlin' Circuit" and why we still allow that phrase to go unchecked? Surely we all know chitlins, aka SHIT-ter-lings, are the funky bowels of the pig, so who among us believes our early pioneers deserves to be represented in such a deplorable fashion?
Bring me the head of the person or persons who coined that phrase so I can pimp-slap their ass. But wait, I could go to jail for that, or worst, be labeled a racist. I mean, those words had to originate from the mouth of a white person, right? Certainly everyone knows our black pioneers in the entertainment industry were some of the most talented people on this earth, so who would benefit by belittling them in an attempt to stratify themselves above their heads? Hmmmm....

BBC Worldwide Productions' popular show Ek Boond Ishq on Life OK has
changed completely in terms of story line and characters as most
of the character have quit the show except the leads Chhavi Pandey, Viraf Phiroz Patel, Vishwajeet Pradhan. Many new characters have been roped in to play different characters.
Hunar Hali who was seen in the show as Nandini was absent from the show for quite sometime now and people assumed that she has put down her papers.
But there is a good news for all her fans, as Hunar is re-entering the show in a new look.
As seen in the show Nandini was seen in a negative character. She falls in love with Aaditya (Dishank Arora) but unfortunately she couldn't marry him and thus turns negative. Later she marries Rudra Pratap to avenge from Aaditya. Now since the grudges have been resolved, the story has also taken a leap, so are the characters and hence her look will also be changed.
As per our sources, "Hunar will be seen in a
different avatar and her character will turn positive."
We got in touch with Hunar to know about her re-entry for which she said, "I was contemplated whether to do the show again or not. But I am really happy to get associated with the same production and cast because one always feels more comfortable working with those whom you know already. So I am really glad to get back on the show. I started shooting from yesterday."
TellyBuzz wishes Hunar Hali all the best for the future!

You guys are just ruining her name like this. Her name is Hunar Ali. Not Hunar Hali...
Who is de writer yaar..dis much own creation? Well actors didnt quit but the characters r supposed to end n take a leap.
Hunar didnt sign any papers n not in plan to quit..after de leap Nandu cones in a diff luk lately...y u all creating ownstories?
Well hope she actually turns positive and help Tara out, find out that Kalavati killed Taras family including hers and Taras mum and take revenge from Kalavati for killing her mum. I think Tara and Sia are actually twins, hope Sia is alive and not dead. Tara and Sia can't be just look a likes, im sure they are twins. If Nadu turns positive then what was in todays episode, she looked like a thief, she was dressed as a bride and then stole the jewellery, so I think positive with grey shades. Also where is Taras brother that went abroad, he never came back and its been 5 years so should bring him back in the story line uncluding MJs sister who disappeard.
Mujhe tob doubt hai ki positive hogi bhi ya nahi per ye shekhawat mansion gaya kaha ??????

Lib Dems in Government to fix thousands of potholes in Reading
As many as 3,000 potholes will be fixed in Reading in the next year thanks to Liberal Democrats in government.
A total of £163,833funding has been allocated to the area to fix the problem by the Coalition.
The local authority will also have to publish reports on the number of potholes repaired as a condition of receiving the money.
Lib Dem Transport Spokesperson Cllr Ricky Duveen said:
"Potholes are the bane of all our lives and this will help rid our roads of this menace."
"This money, secured by Liberal Democrats in government, will make a real difference to business and the journeys of commuters and families in the area."
The funding is part of a nationwide scheme which sees councils across England allocated £168 million to repair potholes. The money will help fix more than three million potholes across the country and is part of the largest investment in the roads since the 1970s.
Liberal Democrat Transport Minister Susan Kramer said:
"Potholes are a major form of distress for many motorists especially ones that seemingly need refilling every few months."
"That is why I am so pleased that we have announced that more than three million potholes are to be filled."
"Investing in our vital road network helps to build a stronger economy for all of us."
It is the latest in a series of announcements that will see more than £24 billion spent on England's strategic road network between 2010 and 2021.
Work on the potholes must be completed by March of next year. The money must be used on repairing potholes or ensuring they do not appear in the first place.
Councils will have to publish quarterly updates telling local residents how many potholes they have fixed.

Susi Burnham
Susi is not only a massive Bulls fan but has also given a huge amount back to the local community, particularly around getting young people fit and healthy. She has assisted at many Bradford junior rugby league clubs, as well as educating over 1,000 children about healthy living. Susi is a Junior TLM fitness trainer and delivered the Heart project with the the Bulls Foundation and Heart Research.
Alwyn Dean
Alwyn has frequently shown his dedication to the Bulls. His never wavering optimism and support through even the toughest of times are clear for all to see. For the past 13 years, Alwyn has collected and sold both the club lottery and the matchday draw. He has also given his time to the next generation of Bulls fans by coaching youth rugby in the local community .
Colin Raistrick
Colin is a true Bulls fan, not only has he remained positive during some of the tougher times at Odsal, he does his upmost to rally other fans into sharing his positivity. Colin's enthusiasm has rubbed off on his family, whom he takes on the mammoth drive to every Bulls game, both home and away fixtures, all the way from Morecambe.
Bryan Costello
Bryan is a truly dedicated Cas fan, whose support for the club extends to attendance even when unwell. Each of Bryan's Castleford matchdays are begun with with his pre-match ritual of a cup of tea, before he picks his son and grandson up and takes them to the match. Bryan has followed Castleford through the good and the bad times since the 1940s, and has a proud record of attending to every final involving Cas.
Leanne Hirst
As her nominator says, Leanne loves Castleford with a passion. She attends all matches whether home or away, following the team around the country to add her support. Not only does Leanne attend all and every Cas match, she also supports the club financially in any way she can.
Ronald Kirk
According to his nominator, Ronald is the very definition of a dedicated fan. Having attended his first Castleford game aged 10, a staggering 74 years on Ronald still sits in the stands as excited and as passionate as if it was his first visit all those years ago. Nominated by his daughter, she believes Ronald deserves the recognition for his many years service to his beloved Cas.
Mark Ennis
Mark not only supports the Giants as a year-in, year-out family season ticket holder, he also does all he can to help with the club's charity events. As manager at the local Morrison's, Mark works long hours, but he also organises in-store gift donations that can be used by the club's chaity to raise much needed funds. His work commitments understandably take up a lot of his time, but he always makes the effort to catch the Giants matches.
Fred Haliwell
Fred has worked tirelessly for the last 30 years for his local rugby league club, Hollinwood ARLFC. At the club, Fred is the kit man, groundsman, treasurer, secretary, first aider and all around go to man! He is a true sportsman who, according to his nominator should win the BRUT Fan of Pride award in recognition of his years of dedication and hard work.
Claire Watmough
Despite suffering from fibromyalgia and tendinitis, Claire, her husband and carer, Graham, and their two young boys are Giants season ticket holders who very rarely miss a Huddersfield match. Not only this, Claire and Graham also bring both boys for ball boy duty at first team and academy games, come rain and snow, hale and wind. Claire's philosophy is that the responcibility of being a ball boy for the first team must be earned by working at academy matches and, as her nominator says, the boys do so with 'passion and never complain about the cold, wind and rain!'
Lisa Jewitt
Lisa is not only a massive Hull FC fan – she never misses a match - but she also organises events for fellow fans. As secretary of the Hull FC supporters group Lisa has organised many fundraisers for various groups by walking over 630 miles! She strives to make supporting Hull FC and rugby league in general as enjoyable as possible for everyone. Admirably, Lisa finds time for all of her rugby related work and fundraising despite having a challenging full-time job. Her nominator has described her loyalty to Hull FC as "unquestioned, whilst her dedication to rugby league and the great causes that she supports is unflinching."
Gary Lambert
Gary is a massive Hull FC fan who always makes the effort to get to as many games as he can. This is especially impressive as he travels to Hull all the way from Portsmouth - a 500 mile round trip!
Graham Middleton
Graham is a well recognised fan around not only Hull but amongst rugby league fans across the length and breadth of the country. It was Graham who conceived of the idea to rename the Man of Steel Award after former player Steve Prescott and through his hard work and dedication he has, according to one of his nominators "honoured Steve Prescott eternally". Graham has been a huge Hull FC fan for over 35 years and attends as many games as he can to support the club. Graham has "a heart of gold", working tirelessly behind the scenes for the community and local charities.
Graham Middleton
Graham is a well recognised fan around not only Hull but amongst rugby league fans across the length and breadth of the country. It was Graham who conceived of the idea to rename the Man of Steel Award after former player Steve Prescott and through his hard work and dedication he has, according to one of his nominators "honoured Steve Prescott eternally". Graham is unique amongst this year's nominees in that he has received his nomination for Hull KR despite supporting their bitter rivals.
Alan Parker
Despite retirement, heart attacks & diagnosis of serious illness, Alan dedicates hours of his time to rugby league. Known in and around Hull simply as 'Mr Rugby League', Alan now performs an administrative role for young people in the city. His nominator believes Alan deserves to be recognised for all his time, energy and hardwork. "For these reasons", he says, "he merits the title of BRUT Fan of Pride 2014".
Paul Stephenson
Paul lives and breathes rugby league and Hull KR. An avid fan for 50 years, he has got both his sons hooked on the sport. Furthermore, Paul has volunteered for over ten years and the started East v West youth game, which he encourages to be played in the correct way - he sits on the disciplinary panel for the match afterall!
Russell Fox
Aside from being a huge Leeds Rhinos supporter, Russell puts a great deal of his time and effort into the running of the LS16 Rhinos Supporters Club (Lanswood Arms). Russell is a Rhinos ambassador and keeps himself busy by organising a Leeds line lotto. His nominator tells how Russell "lives and breathes the Rhinos" and does his absolute most to promote the Rhinos in all areas of home and work life.
Cheryl Lyons
Cheryl gives a great deal back to her local community, both for her local club, the Easterhouse Panthers, and for the wider community. Additionally, she voulnteers at Credit Union and runs a food bank collection. Cheryl is always thinking of others and works tirelessly to aid the local community - all this is especially admirable considering she is a single parent with a full time job!
Andrew Playford
Andrew has been nominated by his daughter who describes him as "a hero". Tragically he recently lost his brother to cancer but he has remained positive and strong for others. As a huge Leeds Rhinos fan Andrew can be seen in the Headingley Carnegie stands come sun, rain or snow. The struggles that Andrew has faced combined with his love for the Rhinos means he should be considered for the BRUT Fan of Pride award. "He's the biggest rugby fan I know" another nominator comments.
Paul Cambell
Paul goes further than the ordinary London Broncos fan, using social media to try and increase recognition for the club. He has also done his bit for charity - in 2010 he got a shirt signed by all the Broncos players and donated it to charity. Paul is also set to play a role in the local community as he is due to help at Rainham Touch Rugby when it starts this season.
Aaron Lomax
Aaron is a truly loyal London Broncos fan. He not only sponsors some of the Broncos players but has also remarkabley attended every Broncos home and away game this season! Aaron is a fully dedicated fan who has supported the club through thick and thin this season. His support for his club is absolute and nothing gets in the way of it.
Stuart Nightingale
Stuart is a big London Broncos fan and volunteers to be the club mascot. He also writes for the club match day programme and helps promote the Broncos through the 'Buck and Dusty' Twitter page. As one of his nominator's says, "it's not easy being a mascot for a club which has lost every game this season!". Stuart's contribution to the London Broncos is massive and deserves to be recognised by both London Broncos and Super League fans.
Martin Owens
"Martin is a true inspiration, role model and to us a superhero!", writes Becky Rossall, who nominated Martin Owens. Martin is Chairman and co-founder of the Manchester Canalsiders, the world's first first-ever lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rugby league club. The Canalsiders aim to be a fully inclusive rugby club and enable anyone who wants to take up and continue playing rugby the opportunity and facilities to do so, with teams specifically aimed at the LGBT community. The club have also attracted the interest of a some famous rugby personalities, with stars from both codes, Gareth Thomas and Ben Cohen, praising its work.
Wayne Rimmer
Wayne is a big Salford Red Devils fan who attends all their matches. However, his dedication to rugby league doesn't stop at support for the Red Devils. Any spare minute he has he dedicates his time down at his local club, Langworthy Reds. Not only does he coach the juniors at Langworthy, but he also plays a big hand in the upkeep and running of the club's facilities.
Paul Whiteside
Paul is an exceptionally dedicated Salford Red Devils fan, so much so that he dipped into his own pocket and gave money to the club during its recent financial difficulties. Paul is extremely passioniate about Salford, boasting excellent knowledge on past scores, players and games. And he has decided to turn this knowledge into something tangible – by starting, and currently being in the process of writing a book about rugby. As a mark of his dedication to the club, his nominator even revealed that Paul's first tattoo was a Salford one!
Will Hunter
Will Hunter is not only a huge Saints fan but spends a great deal of time helping his local community by training the Egremont Rangers Under 11 team. Both children and parents alike are in agreement that Will deserves to be the BRUT Fan of Pride as he has built up a great youth team.
Liam Jones
Liam volunteers at Saints every Saturday, as well as during his university holidays, helping young people. He balances his university work with regular coaching in the local community. He loves Saints and attends every match whether home or away. One of his nominators states that, "you will never meet a more dedicated, loyal young fan who goes above and beyond for his beloved club."
Christopher Owen
Nominated by his son, Christopher has been a dedicated St Helens fan for more than 30 years. His son says that he deserves recognition not only for his support of the Saints but also for his role within his family. Astonishly Christopher fosters two young children as well as looking after seven of his own!
Steve Locking
Steve is a true Wakefield supporter doing everything he can to support the players out on the pitch. He has given hundreds of hours to repair barriers, exits and such like to ensure the stadium reaches the required standards and his nominator feels he deserves recognition for putting the game before himself. Steve's work has been instrumental in the upgrading of the capacity of Belle Vue and guaranteeing that it satisfies Health and Safety laws and there are very few who can match the time he spends volunteering for the club.
Gaz Spedding
Gaz volunteers each week at the Wildcats to ensure that pre-match junior games take place and run smoothly, and his commitement to the club extends to support in any form necessary. Gaz also coordinates away matchday travel and is an ever willing volunteer to help the community team.
Ryan Williamson
When the club was suffering financial problems Ryan spearheaded a fans group to come together to raise funds to sponsor a player. While many people had ideas of how they could support the club, Ryan was the driving force in making them happen. To generate the player sponsorship he sold raffle tickets to bring in the funds. Once this happened, he raffled the perks that came with being a player sponsor such as player appearances.
Pam Caley
A huge Wolves fan who attends every game, Pam arranges a supporters coach to all away games, including Catalan, and treats the supporters who travel with her as family, baking cakes and buying sweets for every journey for a small fee, with funds collected being donated to charity. In 2013 Pam was diagnosed with cancer with her resulting treatment unfortunately keeping her away from the Wolves' Grand Final, watching, instead, from her hospital bed. During this time Pam was determined to spend a minimal amount of time away from Wolves games and despite ongoing treatment is now back in the stands.
James Shaw
Nominated by his son, James Shaw has been a season ticket holder for many many years. Despite being aged 74 James still attends all Wolves matches, home and away. His love of rugby league does not stop with Warrington however - he follows his grandson who plays regularly at Woolston Wizards.
Keith Beckett
Keith is not only a massive Widnes Vikings fan but dedicates much of his time to his local community. He unselfishly does a lot of social work around the Halton area, is always extremely friendly and has a permanent smile on his face. Keith has supported the Vikings for many years and his dedication even extends to supporting the club financially.
Marcus Booth
Marcus gives up his own time encouraging others to believe in Widnes in the same way that he does. He is an inspirational fan whose enthusiasm rubs off on others around him. In a display of his commitement to his much loved Vikings team, Marcus travelled from Bangkok to Widnes for the first game back in Super League against Wakefield!
Leam Fox
Leam's love of rugby league goes beyond his beloved Widnes Vikings. He plays a key role at Halton Simms Cross ARLFC, organising many events and frequently taking part in charity work - he is seen by many around the club as a "knight in shining armour". "No-one is more deserving of this award than Leam", his nominator proudly states, "he is a fantasic person to be around our club".
Greg McMillan
Greg displays his love and commitment to the Wigan Warriors by travelling down from Glasgow to watch them play, meaning every game is like an away game for him! He has been a huge rugby league fan since he was introduced to it in the summer of 2004, with 2014 making this year his 10 year anniversary of his love for the sport.
Aaron Moon
Aaron is not only a Warrior hero but a national hero. Having fought for the British Army in Afghanistan, Aaron was tragically forced to have one of his legs amputated. Despite this, he still makes the effort to make it to the DW stadium week in, week out. As his nominator states, Aaron "gave his leg for us" and is therefore deserving of the BRUT Fan of Pride award.
David Morgan
David plays a big role in the local community taking part in a great deal of charity work. He encouarges and helps men change their lives, whilst also doing some important work with children. David is involved with 'Trim Down, Shape Up!' the free fitness and health service to encourage people to get out and healthy.

Reveal lost images with Thumbcache Viewer
You've accidentally deleted some irreplaceable images. There are no backups; file recovery tools can't find anything; it seems like they've gone forever. But wait: there may still be just a little hope.
Browse a folder in thumbnail view and Explorer generates thumbnails for every supported file, saving them in a local cache. These can live on for a long time, even if the source files are deleted, corrupted or otherwise trashed. And you can recover any or all of them with just a couple of tiny free tools.
Sysinternals releases a brand new tool: Sysmon 1.0
Window Sysinternals has announced a brand new tool, Sysmon, a Windows service and driver which logs process creations, network connections, and changes to a file's creation time.
The service is designed to help users identify malware, but can also be helpful when troubleshooting, or whenever you need to know more about what's happening on a PC.
YUMI creates custom multiboot USB drives
If Windows won't start then there are plenty of standard options you can try: Safe Mode, system restore, "last known good", and now Windows 8′s refresh options.
These technologies have their limits, though, and so it's wise to prepare a few other bootable environments of your own. An antivirus rescue disc, a partition manager, maybe a backup tool or system recovery suite.
DAYU Disk Master Free: image backups and more
At first glance, DAYU Disk Master Free looks like many other simple image backup tools. Select a target drive, a destination, choose a few options (compression, splitting, priority, speed) and you can run a backup at a click. Restoration is possible from the program or a rescue disk, and there's a disk clone feature thrown in.
Browse the program's menus, though, and some relatively unusual bonus features help it stand out from the low-end competition.
Chrome's All Seeing Eye searches the text of every page you've visited
You've been online for hours, Chrome windows and tabs scattered everywhere, and now you need to revisit a particular page. Which would be fine, except you can't remember which one it was, and the standard web history -- just titles and URLs -- doesn't help at all.
Maybe you should have installed All Seeing Eye, a Chrome extension which takes a snapshot of every page you visit, indexes its text, and makes this freely searchable whenever you like.
Access multiple cloud storage accounts with B1 File Manager for Android

recALL displays forgotten email and FTP passwords
Setting up a new email or FTP client can take a while, especially if you've lots of accounts. Not only will you have to look up server names, ports, security and other details, but you'll also have to try and remember all your various passwords.
If you didn't make a note of yours originally (and you don't use exactly the same password for everything), there are a few tools which might be able to help. NirSoft's Mail PassView is one of the best known.
FBackup comes with promise of faster backup performance, improved statistics view
Softland has released FBackup 5.1 and Backup4all 5.1, minor new versions of its free and paid-for Windows backup products.
Both programs, which offer file-based backup and extended functionality via plug-ins, come with the promise of improved backup performance and more detailed statistics view, along with other minor improvements and bug fixes.
Is TEncoder the ultimate video converter?
When we tried it last year, TEncoder impressed us as a powerful video conversion tool with a stack of features: file, folder and folder tree import, video trimming, 800+ output profiles, excellent subtitling support, deinterlace and crop tools, full control over output codec settings, and a whole lot more.
It was an outstanding package, but the developer had only just got started, and major updates have taken the program into whole new areas.
Download Ninja is a fast, flexible and free download manager

CyberLink Media Suite 12 Ultimate: A great value-for-money bundle [Review]
After almost 20 years developing multimedia software, it's no surprise that CyberLink has some impressive products. But they can seem expensive. PowerDVD is definitely a versatile and feature-packed media player, but if you're used to freeware then its $99.95 list price might send you elsewhere.
Fortunately CyberLink's Media Suite 12 Ultimate offers a more value-for-money option, providing a big chunk of the CyberLink range -- a total of fifteen products -- for as little as $139.95.

Group out to grow 3-on-3 hoopsJoe Paisley, The Gazette (Colorado Springs, Colo.)
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- It was easy for player Jimmy Velten to see the possibilities for 3-on-3 basketball in the United States.
Velten and three teammates competed in the recent Under-18 national championships at the Colorado Springs Olympic Training Center. Although there were only 57 players, including 15 girls, combined in the men's and women's tournaments, he didn't expect that small turnout to remain the norm.
"It's a fun, fast-paced game where you get to play a lot and are forced to make quick decisions," the incoming high school senior said. "Once you play it, you love it. I expect a lot more players my age and younger will like this and take it more seriously, especially when you hear that there are national teams to play for."
National youth program director Jay Demings is confident that will be the case, especially after the Colorado Springs-based organization develops U18, U14 and U12 age divisions for its national 3-on-3 program.
The 21/2-year-old initiative began after FIBA began pushing for its inclusion in the Olympics by 2020.
The international federation hopes 3-on-3 will grow the sport worldwide with smaller countries able to produce four top-end players instead of the 12 to 14 needed in 5-on-5.
USA Basketball sees 3-on-3 as a way to reach more youth players. It started its U18 division last year and will add U14 and U12 next year or 2016 at the latest.
"There is a lot of growth potential in the middle and high school ranks," Demings said.
The hope is regionals will attract more players and jump-start a new national ranking system overseen by USA Basketball. That system would provide the foundation for a national team program.
"Having more regionals will generate more interest from players willing to drive an hour to play, especially in the Northeast where there is a lot of talent," said 3-on-3 program director Travis Johnson.
The U18 division will have East and West regionals next year instead of a single national tournament.
Demings and Johnson say 3-on-3 appeals to children and parents. It also retains players who lose interest in 5-on-5 as they enter high school.
"Instead of having a team of 12 with players sitting on the bench, you have three teams of four," Demings said. "The younger age groups are very excited about the chance to wear Team USA gear. Parents like seeing their kids play."
The different rules help players perform in the traditional 5-on-5 game. A 12-second shot clock encourages players to make quick decisions.
"It's a fast-paced game that forces you to be aggressive," said Alex Greenly, a high school senior who played in that tournament. "Everyone has to step up. It's good for you in 5-on-5 because it gets you more time on the court."
All four players are active participants even with one on the sideline, Johnson said. The substitute calls out time left on the shot clock and steps in for a tiring teammate.
Sand Creek senior Bryce Glaser enjoys the free-form nature of the game.
"It's an exciting game to play," he said. "It emphasizes quick shooting and decisions."
The rules reward long-range shooting. Baskets from beyond the arc count for two points while others, including free throws, are worth one.
"You have to pass and work quickly to find an open shot," Johnson said. "We are really excited about the possibilities both for retaining players longer but getting more kids playing at a young age."

Shout Outs
This week I made these yummy Black Bean Burgers from The Cottage Sisters. As soon as they posted it last Friday I knew it was what I would be making that night. I did make a couple of changes to the recipe. Mine were eggless (because I had no eggs, not because I was doing the vegan-thing) and I used a little bit of extra oil and some oats in addition to the other ingredients. They were very delicious and I was able to freeze about 6 patties for future use.
I also made this Light Eggless Banana Cake from Treat & Trick (again because we had no eggs and also because we had a bowl full of over ripe bananas). Since the recipe made two cakes we added chocolate chips to one of them and pecans to the other. Both cakes disappeared in no time.
Hey! While you are here why don't you enter to win a Wild Mother Arts Celtic Fire Nursing Necklace. Follow the link to see this gorgeous handmade necklace. Breastfeeding as well as non-breastfeeding moms will love it!

The e-commerce software provider blames maintenance and a data storage network for the outage.
Volusion Inc. reported problems in loading its clients' web sites today, blaming a delay in maintenance preparing for the holiday season and difficulty in rebooting a data storage area network. The outage comes two months after the company released a new version of its e-commerce platform, and after the company's CEO Clay Olivier said in July that Volusion was upgrading its data center to avoid further outages.
It could not be determined how many of the more than 40,000 online stores that the company says use its hosted e-commerce technology were effected. But more than 30 postings on the company's Facebook page today complained of site problems, including one by Laurie McConnell, CEO and founder of web design firm Bad Dog Design Inc., who wrote: "Ah, a systemic problem. Thought so—590 people ahead of me on chat." By chat McConnell meant the customer service online chat feature that Volusion provides its customers.
Several web sites Volusion.com features on its coporate site as clients today either failed to load or produced an error message informing users to contact customer service with a given reference number. The message did not provide phone or e-mail contact information or clarify if it was referring to the customer service staff of Volusion itself or the client.
On Volusion's technology status page at Status.Volusion.com, the company blamed the outages on two "unrelated issues." It said one stemmed from a "delay in completing last night's session readiness maintenance" and that the other was related to an "automatic reboot of a portion of the Storage Area Network." It added, "Currently the SAN has been stabilized and engineers have started returning functionality to impacted databases and web application servers. Once these last two steps have been completed, full functionality will be restored for all stores."
The company also issued a statement later in the day after Internet Retailer requested a comment. It noted that the problem with the SAN "caused a delay in completing one of our final steps in the overall season readiness maintenance that was scheduled on October 11."
It added: "Over the past eight weeks, Volusion engineers have been preparing the infrastructure for this year's holiday selling season. During this week's scheduled maintenance window, our routine maintenance involved balancing sites and databases across the infrastructure. Towards the end of the maintenance, there was a cluster of servers which engineers were unable to bring back online. After extensive troubleshooting, our engineers determined that there was an issue with part of the SAN. We worked with representatives from EMC to further troubleshoot the hardware issue.
"Once the issue was resolved, our team began the process of bringing servers back online. During that process, a portion of the SAN returned an error that initiated a reboot, which in turn impacted additional customers. Volusion engineers then stabilized the SAN and returned functionality to impacted databases and web application servers. At this time, full functionality is being restored to all stores."

WIMMERA Hockey Association began its 2014 season in warm conditions with all nine first round matches held on lush green grass fields at Davis Park in Nhill on Saturday.
In the open competition, Dimboola claimed top spot on the ladder after its 6-0 win over Horsham Hurricanes.
Dimboola has secured the services of female goalie Ellie Woods, who has transferred from Warrack and is also playing on the field for the Dimboola women.
The former junior state championships goalie has boosted the mostly men's side and with a steady line-up, the Dimboola side ran away in the second half to claim the four points.
Both teams had been fairly evenly matched early in the game with several short corners, although while Horsham was hitting the ball hard, it was not passing as efficiently as Dimboola.
Nathan Jorgensen scored four times, while last year's open best and fairest Tim Jorgensen shone for Dimboola and Paul Mackereth was a steady contributor for the Hurricanes.
Kaniva Cobras and Warrack Hoops shared the points after a 2-2 draw.
Both sides spent time in the lead - Kaniva was just in front at half-time, before Warrack evened the score three minutes into the second half.
Paul Slater contributed well for the Hoops while Braden Clark shone for Kaniva.
Despite being at risk of not fielding a team this season, Nhill Rangers have recruited well and put in a worthy performance against back-to-back open premiers Yanac Tigers.
The Tigers dominated in attack in the first half, although Nhill's defence held them to two goals.
Nhill played good passing hockey at the start of the second half but Yanac's on-field talk and skills kept it pushing in front and to a 4-0 win.
Yanac women's centre half-back Erin Alexander changed her name after getting married in the off-season, but the three-time consecutive association women's best and fairest player has not changed her style, scoring a winning goal while shining against the Nhill Thunderbirds.
Despite a couple of blows to the Yanac side including a nose injury and utilising several juniors, it scored twice in the second half to win 2-0.
Wendy Crowhurst was named best for the Thunderbirds at centre half-back.
Back-to-back women's premier Dimboola has changed its line-up slightly but still showed plenty of strength in its 4-1 win against Horsham Highlanders.
Ashlee Crowhurst shone for Dimboola while Launa Schilling starred for the Highlanders.
Kaniva has jumped out of the gates early this season with a couple of handy recruits and with good passing, plays and teamwork held on for a 0-0 draw despite a late surge from Warrack.
Full-backs Tiffany Bull,Warrack, and Rachel Clark, Kaniva, influenced the final score, or 'non-score'.
In the juniors, the Kaniva Raiders won 10-0 against Horsham Bombers, Nhill Leopards and Dimboola Kookaburras drew 1-1 and Yanac Warriors proved too strong for Dimboola Kangaroos, winning 18-0.
Round two matches will be held at Brim Recreation Reserve, hosted by Warracknabeal Hockey Club, next Saturday.
This venue is a first for Wimmera hockey.

State says video shows Hill holding murder weapon
A police report of the investigation released in May said Houghton - despite severe blood loss - was still able to stand and answer questions when investigators arrived. She said she was attacked by someone she didn't know. The trustee of The White Mountain School in nearby Bethlehem told police she was feeling nauseated and dizzy before she was taken to Littleton Regional Hospital, where she died.
He had not been seen publicly since a brief Jan. 29 hearing in Littleton District Court, and has been held at the Grafton County jail since then.
Hornick, of the Public Defender's Office in Littleton, told the judge the issue of Hill's competency to stand trial has not yet been determined. Hornick declined comment after the hearing, adding she had advised Hill's family members not to talk to reporters.

Haiti earthquake: Island nation marks 4th anniversary of devastating quake
Trenton Daniel, The Associated Press
Published Sunday, January 12, 2014 5:10PM EST
Last Updated Sunday, January 12, 2014 6:41PM EST
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti -- Haitians paused Sunday to remember the tens of thousands of people who died in a catastrophic earthquake four years ago, holding sombre low-key commemorations on a national day of reflection.
President Michel Martelly and first lady Sophia Martelly placed a bouquet of white flowers at a potter's field north of the capital of Port-au-Prince that is being turned into an official memorial for those killed.
The pair observed a minute of silence facing a plaque placed at a large piece of rubble, with the inscription: "Jan. 12, 2010. We will never forget you."
Martelly said much had been accomplished since the disaster.
"Four years later, I think we have moved forward tremendously," Martelly told The Associated Press, noting a decline in the number of people still without housing and the number of hotels being built. "Of course, a lot remains to be done."
The 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck outside Haiti's capital on Jan. 12, 2010, and thousands of buildings toppled in Port-au-Prince and surrounding cities. Officials say more than 300,000 died, but no one knows for certain how many people lost their lives.
An estimated 1.5 million people were left living in gloomy tent camps that became symbols of the devastation and desperation heaped upon this already deeply poor nation. The number of displaced people has since fallen to 146,000 in a decline attributed to a combination of voluntary departures, rental subsidies and violent evictions.
The day in the capital began like any other Sunday with churchgoers dressed in their best skirts and slacks wending their way through streets noticeably clear of the rubble that clogged them long after the quake.
Haiti's radio and television stations played sombre programs and music. Martelly's government declared a day of remembrance and reflection, with the Haitian flag flown at half-staff and clubs ordered closed.
"We need this, we need to remember our family members and friends who died," Peterson Lebours said as he visited a memorial at the national cemetery, which was a dumping ground for bodies after the quake. The 35-year-old teacher lost a cousin, several friends and co-workers.
Almost all the rubble in the capital has finally been carted off and many of the tent encampments are less visible, replaced by construction sites.
Still, the reconstruction effort has been piecemeal, with promised aid money slow to come because of worries about Haiti's political infighting and corruption as well as the reluctance of donors to provide funds amid the global economic downturn.
The precarious existence for those still living in settlements was underscored as people scavenged through the charred remains of a camp that caught fire Saturday and killed four people, including three children. Camp dwellers wouldn't say if the blaze was an arson attack aimed at expelling them, as many such fires are.
"I'm shaken up, clearly bothered, but I've turned everything over to God," said Gary Leon, a 36-year-old security guard whose three-year-old daughter, Sabine, died from her burns. "I was very close to her. She took off my shoes at night. I'm beginning to miss her."
The foundation of former President Bill Clinton, the onetime UN special envoy to Haiti, sought to cast the day in a positive light.
"As we remember this solemn anniversary, we also recognize that Haiti has the opportunity for a bright and prosperous future, one that its people and children deeply deserve," it said in a statement.

DR. WALLACE: Why are our public schools like a war zone? The teachers and administrators are not in control; the "rough-neck" students are. What is it going to take for our schools to once again become a place where students receive a quality education?
I realize that this is a difficult question to answer, but I will be pleased if you will give it a try. — Mother, Merrillville, Ind.
MOTHER: Any time you place hundreds of younger children or teens on a 10- to 40-acre campus, strong discipline must be the rule. That's why some schools have allowed the students to be in control.
A strong student discipline program is mandatory for students to receive a quality education. The school rules should be reviewed and explained at the beginning of each school year and strictly enforced from the beginning. Both students and parents need to be made aware of the consequences for breaking the rules.
It is not easy to maintain control, but it can, and is, being done by many school districts. Also, remember that society today is more out of control than it was generations ago and schools are a reflection of the way our society acts as a whole.
If all parents would have excellent control of their children, inspired by love, compassion, and fair discipline, our schools would present a much better atmosphere for learning!
DR. WALLACE: How important is it for a family to have smoke detectors in the home? Our family has two parents and five children, and we don't have any smoke detectors. The reason is that my stepdad thinks that we all could escape if a fire broke out because we have evacuation routes and practice them every month. My stepdad thinks that the noise from a smoke detector only causes panic. He says that Nellie, our dog, would bark and wake him up.

Third baseman Frank Potts finished the year as the Warriors' top hitter, batting .452 with 16 RBIs and 12 runs scored.
Tommy John surgery may have prevented Alex Brickman from pitching, but it sure didn't stop him from hitting. He finished with a .428 batting average and 15 RBIs. Despite spending most of the year in the leadoff spot, Tim Awiszus drove in a team-high 20 runs to go with his .400 average, while freshman E.J. Perry IV matched that batting average while scoring and driving in 18 runs.
On the mound, Bryant finished with a miniscule 0.67 ERA and Colin Flynn led the team in wins (5) and strikeouts (49).
Hurdle heroics
Ask just about anyone involved in track, and they will tell you the hurdles are the most grueling events to take on.
As a freshman, Sebastian Silveira was jokingly told to stay as far away as possible from the hurdles. So who could have guessed what would happen this season.
Picking up the event out of curiosity — and necessity for the team — Silveira wasted no time becoming a star.
After taking second in the 400 hurdles at the Haverhill Invitational and Andover Boosters, Silveira won the MVC Meet title and was third at the EMass. Division 1 Meet. Finally, at New Balance Nationals, he took seventh in the 110 hurdles emerging elite division in 14.85, on the heels of the Andover (automatic-timed) school record of 14.62 run by Jason McCue in 1991.
It was also a huge year for junior Hamza Naveed, who won the 400 crown at Andover Boosters and the MVC Meet and was fifth at the Division 1 meet.
He then earned gold at Nationals, as he teamed with Dylan Epstein, Kevin Chen and Ray Gorzela to win the 800 sprint medley relay emerging elite crown.
It was a successful return to the track for girls star Courtney Comeau after missing her junior season with a back injury. She took second at MVCs, then was seventh at EMass. Division 1 states in the 100 hurdles.

Sun's debut is highly imaginative and action packed; it's definitely a great way to kick off her new series. It's not perfect by any means but the imperfections — the amped-up relationship drama and some hyperbolized dialogue — lends to its overall charm.
After Katie's mom dies, she is forced to move to Japan to live with her aunt, Diane. A fish out of water, she meets the dangerous-seeming Tomohiro, and her life changes forever. Tomohiro has special skills — his drawings come to life. For some reason, Katie is an ink magnet and whatever power Tomohiro has is amplified whenever Katie is near. However, he's involved with some dicey characters who look to use his talent for nefarious purposes. (HARLEQUIN TEEN, Jul., 384 pp., $9.99, ISBN: 9780373210718, PB, 14 & Up)
