Zachary Smith spends his day at school completing homework and his evenings attending Stanford University online high school classes. He is taking two math and one physics class online.
Smith, who is a National Merit scholar, gets through it with sleep deprivation, he said, laughing.
"It's been tough to adjust to the time zone," Smith said. "Classes are late Monday and Wednesday. I'm usually in class from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m."
In addition to his academics, Smith is involved in cross country and track.
"There's not much time to socially visit," Smith said. "I do a lot of homework at school."
Caston High School principal, Adam Strasser, said Smith's time management skills are pretty outstanding.
"He has had to give up the normal social life of a senior," Strasser said. "I think it's rare to see that kind of academic drive in a kid. He knows what he wants to do and what it takes to get there and is willing to make it happen."
Katelyn Miller, in addition to academics and volleyball, spends her time in school and community clubs. Miller is involved in Key Club, Habitat for Humanity, FCCLA, FFA, 4-H and Fulton County Farm Bureau. She is the president of Key Club and FCCLA and the vice president of FFA. She said she stays sane by being organized and having a planner to balance the chaos.
"Caston is a smaller school so I figured I would get involved," Miller said. "It's a good way to interact with people."
Strasser said Miller has given up free time to help other people.
"We talk a lot to our students about giving back to the community," Strasser said. "She's a good example of how getting involved can help you. She was awarded several scholarships because of services she did."
Miller, who has an internship in Pulaski County for nursing this summer, said her advice to others is to get involved because serving others is always more important than the grades one gets.
"Sometimes it's stressful, but the satisfaction is great," Miller said. "Helping others is worth it."
Smith's advice is "procrastination is bad and if you're going to commit yourself, make sure you're invested and self-motivated."
Smith will be attending University of Chicago and plans to double major in mathematics and physics. Miller will be attending Purdue University for nursing and wants to either be a nurse practitioner or anatomy teacher.
Strasser said Miller and Smith are two very driven young people who are examples of working hard to get what you want.
"They both got in to their first choice college and received scholarships," Strasser said. "It shows hard work pays off, which is hard to show students sometimes."

Mammoth, with 307cm at the top of its slopes and 195cm at the base, is the most highly placed of five Californian ski areas in the world top 10 for snow depth. Each with 2.4 – 3m (8-10 feet) lying on upper slopes.
Mammoth has received 135cm (4.5 feet) of new snow in the past seven days and other Californian resorts have reported similar falls, the greatest 166cm (5.5 feet) at Sugarbowl.
Conditions are reported to be good across North America with healthy snowfalls in most areas including in the Rockies and New England. Even a resort in southerly Alabama opened this weekend.

A Message From the Grand Master
An Address from the Grand Master
Hello! My name is Paul Pavlich. I am the Grand Master of the Rho-Omega chapter of Kappa Sigma Fraternity. I am proud to serve my undergraduate brothers and have never been more excited about the direction our chapter and international organization is going. Here at Stevens Institute of Technology, we have an outstanding undergraduate student body that Rho-Omega is happy to be part of. Our brothers are dedicated to improving campus life and are developing our community by living the values of Kappa Sigma's founding principles: scholarship, leadership, fellowship and service.
Academic performance is a priority of the brotherhood. The brothers of our chapter have earned the Office of Student Life's highest GPA award each semester since our founding in January of 2012 for obtaining the highest average GPA of any Greek organization and for having a GPA greater than the all-men's average. Last fall, six of our members received Kappa Sigma Scholarship Leadership Awards which are awarded to the top 2% of undergraduate initiates. Brothers hold academic study sessions for all Stevens students with the goal of increasing everyone's academic performance so they can reach their goals. This year Rho-Omega will work hard in the classroom to improve our overall GPA and looks forward to helping our brothers and school succeed academically.
Brothers are not only leaders in the fraternity, but in many organizations on and off campus as well. Kappa Sigma believes that community involvement is critical in developing future leaders. Several brothers are Resident Assistants who assist new students adapt to the college environment while other brothers are varsity athletes who have brought honor to Stevens by winning Conference Championships and earning All-American honors. These roles and a host of others give brothers experience with working in teams to create unity and establish common ground from which to grow into outstanding citizens. The members of this fraternity are chomping at the bit to lead their respective organizations to new heights this year and I am excited to be a part that journey.
Being a part of Kappa Sigma has given me experiences that have changed my life and made me who I am today. The brothers of this fraternity are exceptional in every way. I am referring to all brothers, not just members of the Rho-Omega chapter. Brothers are provided opportunities throughout the year to visit other chapters to network and learn from a different perspective about how to live the values of the fraternity. In addition to networking with chapters, Kappa Sigma brothers attend district conclaves where they participate in workshops on leadership, conduct standards and personal development to name a few. Rho-Omega has truly given me a family away from home. I look forward to a great year where we can provide an even better experience to our new members so they can enjoy the benefits of the brotherhood.
One of the most rewarding aspects of the fraternity is giving back to our campus and community. Brothers actively participate in and coordinate domestic and foreign service projects year-round. Our brothers understand that we are a part of something larger than our organization and believe it is our duty to help others succeed. Rho-Omega has a strong relationship with the City of Hoboken, Hoboken Grace Community Church and many other local organizations. This year is guaranteed to be our best yet and brothers will volunteer even more of their time than in the past years to helping veterans, students and the homeless.
I cannot wait to see where our fraternity goes next. The way I view the upcoming year is how our chapter's first founding father viewed the future. Julian Gallo always said that the days in front of us are an empty canvas and it is in our power to decide what will be on it. With the support of my brothers, I choose to make that canvas one worth showing to others.
Thank you.
Paul Ivo Pavlich

D-Mom Action Figure: Master of the ER
(A note to my faithful readers: I apologize for the time between posts at this time of year. In my "real life" I work as a ski and adventure writer [poor me] and I travel quite a bit. I hope you understand, and see it as a example of not letting diabetes stop you from living your life. Come spring, I'll be tired of my turtlenecks and back to more frequent posts.)
The post showed up on my facebook wall last night. And even though it had not an italic or bold face word, I could hear the emotion through it.
"waaah being sick is the worst when i dont have you around to take care of me:("
It was my daughter with diabetes, who, 500 miles away in college, had just suffered through a pretty rough bought of stomach bug. While she's been at college for almost two years now, this was the first time she was really sick, down-and-dirty-should-we-call-the-ER-sick down there and without me around.
And it scared her. Mind you, I was on the phone with her constantly, monitoring blood sugars, making suggestions, urging her to take tiny sips of carb rich drinks and time how long she could hold them down.
And we got through it. But it got me thinking: how does an adult with Type 1 go it alone? I mean: I know I'm always going to be there for Lauren. She asked me once, before heading off to college, what I would do if she had to go to the ER. "I'd hop a flight," I promised her without hesitation. "The shuttles to DC run all the time. I can be there in almost no time."
Because I've always kind of been the Alpha Mom when it came to her and sickness. Lauren went through a phase when she was little when stomach bugs tried to ruin our lives. I am almost not kidding when I say that if someone drove past our house with a stomach bug, Lauren would catch it. And almost immediately get dehydrated, low and have super large ketones on top of it all. Not even purple; I'm talking black on the strip. The first time it happened, it scared the bejesus out of me. But after a few times I began to realize: I had to make these hospital trips not a big deal, as streamlined a possible and really, just another "inconvenience" of diabetes.
I know, I know. It sounds cold; even harsh to talk about a child's hospitalization as a mere "inconvenience." But really, if I freaked out every time she had to go in, she'd be a mess and I'd be on meds. And truly, all she really needed was a series of IV's to balance the intake of fluids, carbs and insulin. Heck, if I could do IV's at home, I probably could take care of it without medical help. (I suggested that to Lauren once and she was horrified. "Mom, I don't even have you do my site changes. You think I'm letting you near me with an IV?" My tiny girl guffawed. Point taken.)
So it got to be a routine. We'd watch the trend and wait for as long as we could. But when my "mom gut" said go, we'd go. Instead of waiting for an endo to suggest it, I'd tell them point blank what she needed, and then head to Children's to get it. One year—when she was in fourth grade – we did something like six trips to the hospital. We knew our way to Boston Children's on instinct. We joked about playing "Candy Land" once we settled in. Sometimes, we could even predict it happening a day before (like the day the
stupid idiot mom brought her puking child to the dance recital because she "didn't want her to miss it." Really? I should have sent her the ER bill. Or the time a mom still held a birthday party with a sick kid without telling me because it "would have been mean to postpone it." Yeah, that ended in an ER trip for us too. But I digress). We just did what we had to do. While it could have been beyond horrid, we did our best to just go with it. Time after time after time.
Thankfully, she outgrew what her medical team liked to call her "glass stomach." But this day, as I helped her over the phone, I realized she was a little bit afraid to face those kind of things without me.
But here's the nice part: in the background and by her side the entire time was her boyfriend Nick. Nick was frightened; he is learning about Type 1 but does not know everything yet. The two of them needed me to say what to do and to pull the "time for the ER trigger" if need be. But still – he was there. She told me the next morning he confessed – after she recovered – to being worried and confused. Just like anyone new to caring about someone would be, right? That gives me hope that Nick – or whomever Lauren is with – will want to learn all I have learned. Please, let that be. But, I want them to always count on me too.
Ironically, a week before as we drove to a wedding, I was talking about Lauren's life and future. I told her that years and years from now, when and if she has a child, I hoped to be in the delivery room. My reason? Thanks to one really fast birth and one surprise C-section, I'd somehow managed to have two children without ever actually seeing one born. Lauren's response was quick: "No way!"
But then, a few moments later, she started backing off on that.
"You know," she said, "I'm going to be pretty busy that day and might not be able to have my mind on all the diabetes stuff. Hmmm….. maybe I should let you be there.
"Because, Mom: No one bosses around doctors like you do!"
And there it was, another silver lining. My ER prowess would pay off one day way down the road when I get to see my grandchild born. Fair trade.

Love this post Moira! It certainly helps demonstrate that even the worst of times can have a silver lining.
Always so spot-on when u describe the relentless vigilance that changes d-moms, and shapes our relationships w/our amazing kids. Cheers, Moira! Here's to a bug-free 2012…
I was not diagnosed until I was 21 and I still think the decision about when to go to the ER is one of the most confusing things about having diabetes. I think we all need a "mom" to pull the trigger at that point.
When Hunter broke his neck last week, so many interesteing things occurred. When they gave him childrens Motrin before he could swallow a pill I asked, how much sugar or carbs in that, nurse replied I have never been asked that before…REALLY, well there was 1600mg per spoon and she had given him 6…okay well MRI with insulin pump, they did not have a clue,,
thne they saiid wow you really are very medically savvy,,,,,the reward of being a D mom….
I remember laying in bed with my very, very sick newly diagnosed (only 41 days) diabetic daughter and wondering if I should take her to the ER. I wondered how I would be treated if I had taken her in the ER and it was unnecessary, (("that crazy mom is such a hypochondriac")) or I wondered what would happen if I didn't take her. I have never felt so alone and helpless. I never did sleep that night, I laid with my hand on her back in the dark listening to and feeling her breathe. I never did take her to the hospital (but we went to the Dr in the AM). Being a D-Mom is hard, being a new D-Mom is even harder, and I thank God I'm not there anymore.

I also loved his book, "Autumn with Darwin," capturing his autumn road trip into the Carolinas with his spunky blue heeler, Darwin. It has some of the most stunning autumn photos I've ever seen. He has other books, too, and if you're a fan of Floridian fossils, you'll have a feast. You can also purchase his fantastic nature photos at the website Florida Time Forgot.
Do yourself a favor and buy books direct from the author—you won't regret it. His books leave the mind and senses feeling kind of like when you tasted your very first creme brulee—or whatever your favorite dessert might be. Pretty sweet.

The Titans confirmed Monday that they formally interviewed OL coach Mike Munchak for their head-coaching vacancy. Munchak is considered one of the top candidates for the job.
The Titans parted ways with Jeff Fisher last Thursday after 16-plus seasons. In addition to Fisher, four other assistants have left the Titans, including defensive coordinator Chuck Cecil (who was fired) and D-line coach Jim Washburn (who went to the Eagles to fill the same role).
Munchak is a Hall of Fame guard who has spent 14 seasons as the team's offensive line coach.
The Titans have to satisfy the Rooney Rule, and according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, they have scheduled an interview with Cowboys wide receivers coach Ray Sherman to do so.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Titans plan to interview the team's offensive coordinator, Mike Heimerdinger, on Tuesday.
The way we see it
All signs point to Munchak, a veteran of the staff, becoming the team's next head coach. The Titans owe Fisher $8 million, and Munchak would likely keep most of what is left of the current staff, saving owner Bud Adams some money. The first thing Munchak likely would be asked to do as head coach is help the team find a new quarterback to replace Vince Young.

Poured into a He'brew pint glass. Pours a light orange-yellow amber with a nice one finger white persistent head and quite a bit of lacing. Pleasant sweet malt aroma with a hint of hops and light fruit. Flavor is somewhat muted compared to the aroma. A hint of malt, citrus fruit and a decent hop kick. Somewhat dry finish with a light hop flavor. Pleasant, but not very assertive in flavor. Wish it had the taste to go with the nice presentation and aroma. Light to medium bodied. A decent, but unassuming golden ale.

"A Friend in Weed is a Friend Indeed!" is written around the outside of the bottlecap.
Then "Try LEGAL Weed" in larger font on the cap.
I've driven through Weed a number or times. Really cool mountain town with stunning views of Mt. Shasta. The bottle label also shows Shasta in the background with the "welcome to Weed" overpass sign you see when driving into town.
Picked this bottle up at Whole Foods actually. 5% abv, no born/freshness date.
Fairly muted head, but the lacing hugs the side of my glass very nicely. Yellow golden with a pale haze.
Mild aroma of yeast and some caramel malt.
Sweet candy flavors and rice. Wheaty white bread. Just a touch cardboardy, but not strong. Great yeast flavor.
Mouthfeel is a bit dusty/chalky with some sticky sweetness. Interesting and complex, nevertheless.
I look forward to more from Mt. Shasta Brewing Co.

Pours a two finger white head that fades to a ring leaving a good lace. Cloudy amber color. Light carbonation and medium bodied. Slight hoppy nose. Starts almost sweet, middle has hints of sour apple cider, finish some hops but clean. Decent golden. $1.55 for a 12oz bottle from Liquid Solutions Tigard, Or.

Pours a bright crystal gold cold with a small white head.
Aromas are sweet, a bit dusty, and biscuit like.
Flavor is of bright crystal malts, bread dough, and some creamy malt sweetness. The finish is a kind of dry, crisp, and with some floral hop flavors.
Mouthfeel is good. For a lighter tasting beer, this has a pretty full mouthfeel.
Drinkability is good. A solid, but not spectacular, sessionable beer.

Appears a light gold chill hazed with a settled ecru spotty head.
Balanced scents with a Tang mix and caramel candy scent.
First swigs: Aroma is reflected in the flavor. Hard candy flavors, some orange hints, nothing fancy, with a fast finish of honey and Tang.
Thin to medium body with a generous carbonation.
Last swigs: No mus no fuss. Just a drinkable golden ale. Some hops and malt balance. Average but glad to try it as a new beer. Thanks to AKSmokedPorter for this as 1 of 24 he sent!
Beer is good. Happy average beering.

Second rifling through the beer fridge for a beer I've never had before brings me to Weed Golden Ale...There's a joke in there somewhere, but not today.
Pretty Golden, maybe closer to darker golden ale pours from a 12 oz bottle. 1 inch white head that leaves little to no lacing.
Lighter scents, some hops, some soft malt, but nothing that is strong or off putting.
Tastes, pretty darn good. Starts a little bit sweet, then the hops come in top the picture. Swallow leaves you a sweet taste that again is followed by a nice slightly hoppy aftertaste. Decent beer. Nice to have on a hot spring day.

Pours a cloudy gold with a thin white head that quickly fades.
Smell is very bready, with yeasty aromas, and a slight orangy citrus.
Taste is tangy citrus with a light hop bitterness, and lots of yeasty flavours. An almost creamy light mouthfeel coats the mouth then quickly fades into a semi-dry bitterness.
Overall this is a fairly drinkable beer, would be refreshing in the summer months.

This is a blonde from, I believe, a relatively new brew company in Weed, CA. Please correct the style if I got it wrong.
Appearance: Very clean in appearance for a bottle conditioned ale (yeast is in the bottle) with little cloudiness to a light honey colored brew. A good two finger head of white foam forms and thins into a veneer of lacing on top. I then pour the remainders of the bottle including the yeast into it to see how it tastes.
Smell: A brown sugar smell is most apparent and somewhat disconcerting for such a light beer. There is some sweetness followed by a hops smell which I am unfamiliar with. Somewhat floral and sweet overall.
Taste: Definitely not a close cousin of the big three as this one packs some flavor to go with a good appearance. The taste of bananas is somewhat present and reminds me of a French amber I reviewed a few days ago. The yeast flavor is not unpleasant and makes me want some fresh baked bread or a good thick stew to enjoy with this beer. There is some spicyness, but it is restrained as are the hops flavors in this beer. Though held back, the hops do make a somewhat crisp impression on the tongue. There is also a slight rosemary taste, but it is both fleeting and light. I think it isn't a bad beer for the style.
Mouthfeel: This beer is well carbonated and if you have had anything sweet lately I think you might regret it. If you had this beer with dinner, you probably wouldn't encounter any problems.
Drinkability: This beer gets a slightly better than average rating from me since it is light in alcohol content and somewhat crisp, making a good session beer.

Staff Report
NewsWest 9
PECOS - A company in Pecos is shutting their doors for good and they are taking dozens of jobs with it.
TransPecos Foods first announced it was shutting down in May and filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy.
It seemed like there was hope when the Great American Appetizers Company stepped up to the plate and agreed to take over control.
But Great American has backed out.
More than 89 people in Pecos are now out of a job.
Within the next two weeks, the facility will be put up for sale.

4Miley Cyrus Is Pissed Off at the Idiots Who Say She's Hanging Out With Nick Jonas
Miley Cyrus is really mad at all you idiots out there suggesting that she's hanging out with ex-boyfriend Nick Jonas again, 'cos she's totally not, OKAY? In the midst of all these "Will she or won't she marry Liam Hemsworth?" reports, she was apparently spotted with Mr. Ball Gag's brother out and about in Los Angeles and felt the need to hit up Twitter and tell everyone off for being wrong.
"I literally haven't seen Nick Jonas in years. Don't believe everything you read folks. Why are magazines allowed to publish straight bullshit. Look at my profile pic [which shows my engagement ring]. Look at my finger. Idiots.
"I couldn't have 'ran' into anyone because I haven't went to eat out in public in weeks because of the amount of paparazzi outside my house #shorthairrepunzel."
She later deleted the messages and just left the following, but here's my question: What the hell kind of hash tag is #shorthairrepunzel and why is she using it? If there's one thing anyone with sense knows, it's that you don't try to give yourself a nickname. And also, Rapunzel is not only spelled incorrectly, but also, she's known for her long hair and by being the "short hair" version of her, you're… not Rapunzel at all. Anything that would have made you Rapunzel is no longer there.
I probably shouldn't think so hard about this.

0Nick Jonas Tries for Relevant, Writes a Song About Miley
HARRUMPH. And the song? It's called 'Wedding Bells'. This is what Nick, himself, had to say about the song:
"We're in the process of recording a new album, which is both good and bad, [the bad being that I had to] dive into subjects that make us uncomfortable and write about them. … You have to write a song and apologize for it later. I don't think I've ever written a song that makes me as uncomfortable as this song does. Some things happened in the last year that affected me in that moment. … This song is called 'Wedding Bells.' "
If that clue right there is a little too vague for your tastes, try this one out for size—a lyric in the song says, "If you recall our anniversary falls/ Eleven nights into June," and you're as obsessed with Nick and Miley as much as
I used to be some people are, then you'll know that their anniversary *also* fell on June 11th. Of 2006. But hey, who's counting, right?
Last, unless Selena Gomez is engaged to Bieber on the DL, and also throw away all of the other clues that allude to Miley, one can only assume that he's talking about Miley, you know?

0Nick Jonas Covers Lady Gaga's "Edge of Glory"
Apparently Nick Jonas can still draw a crowd – his recent performance at a Microsoft store had tons and tons of squeeing, swooning young women, and what trendy trendsetter would be complete without his very own rendition of a popular Lady Gaga song?
What do you guys think?

4For All of You Who Thought Nick Might Have Been the Gay Jonas
Looks like Nick (the youngest Jonas I think?) has latched onto some seriously hot vadge. Delta Goodrem, who I had to Google, is an Australian performer who most famously dated some dude from some band called 'Westlife.' She's apparently pretty big in Australia, and she's really, really hot. Anyway, these two guys are dating, and even though Nick is not even 19 yet and Delta is 26, they seem to have a whole lot in common (mainly that whole 'pretty' thing). You go, Nick!
I don't know a whole lot about the Jonas brothers except that they were all on Camp Rock, which, incidentally, I LOVED, and one of them was close to Demi Lovato for a point in time, but … Wait. You say he's NOT who everyone thought was the gay one? There's one worse than him at trying to hide their true feelings? … Oh I have GOT to see this.

17Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez Unfollowed Each Other on Twitter
I am not going to pretend for a second that I don't care about this. Not for one hot second.
Last night I was getting pretty deep into Twitter (I'm snowed in back east at my parents' house, OK?) and I noticed that the Bieliebers were Tweeting something about how Nick Jonas unfollowed Jasmine V. (Bieber's ex) and then Jasmine unfollowed Selena and then Selena unfollowed Justin and then Justin unfollowed both Selena AND Jasmine (take a minute to let all that sink in if you need to).
Basically, something hella craycray went down with that whole circle of teen royalty and I'm dying to know what it is. I've consulted with my friends and we're thinking it has something to do with the rumors about Justin hooking up with Miley Cyrus, but who knows? There's so much room for deliciously inappropriate speculation here.
For those of you who've had better things to do than worry about this shit, Justin and Selena are almost probably definitely an item. I'm guessing that this massive unfollow party has something to do with them breaking up. One site tried to claim that the unfollows were an attempt to calm the relationship rumors, but all parties involved must have known that unfollowing is way more dramatic and eye-catching to die hard fans than just leaving things the way they are.
The comments, you guys. I know you've got things to say about all of this in the comments.

18Kristen Stewart Is Planning Her Stage Debut While I Plan On Giving Up On Humanity
Kristen Stewart is currently talking to some producers and directors about the possibility of doing some theatre on London's West End after her whole Twilight business is wrapped up. She hasn't decided what play she wants to be in yet, but the producers have given her some plays to peruse. I had trepidations about this whole affair, but then I read this illuminating quote she made to Vogue:
"Unlike movie acting, you have to deliver the whole performance there and then. You live it every night."
And now I'm completely disgusted.
This is the same issue I had with that Jonas Brother in Les Mis. I don't care if someone started doing theatre when he was in the fucking womb and spent his infant years doing small regional theatre gigs before being the Phantom of the Opera on Broadway at the tender age of five, the minute you become someone who makes hoards of preteens obsess over you, stay out of theatre*. You're just going to make people who actually want to see a play pissed off because a large portion of the audience would scream when you try try to heart-wrenchingly sing "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables," Nick Jonas.
But Kristen Stewart in a play is so much worse than Nick Jonas in a play. Because I know that Kristen Stewart can't act. Not even a little bit.
*By the way, it was cool when Daniel Radcliffe did this in Equus because there weren't tons of parents willing to take their impressionable young daughters to see some dude getting all naked and horny over a horse.

Masriera speaks to the delicate nature of beauty. A synonym for quality and art in fine jewelry, Masriera represents the rich universe of the Art Nouveau period and Modernism in its exquisite, handmade creations.
For the past 200 years, Masriera has been a prominent name in the world of fine jewelry. The artist, Lluis Masriera, created designs filled with fantasy and motifs from nature that formed part of the Art Nouveau movement. Founded and still operating in Barcelona, Spain, the House of Masriera is recognized worldwide for its work in enamel, characterized by its great luminosity, color and relief. The original molds created in steel are still used today, by master craftsmen who painstakingly create each piece in a multi-step process requiring repeated layering and firing of enamel in intense heat.
The most recognizable symbol is the female figure, always portrayed in an ethereal manner. Flowers, petals, insects, birds, frogs, dragons and other natural themes are other frequent references. Their look is immediately identifiable as Masriera. Each piece is individually numbered and has its own certificate of guaranty. Elleard Heffern Fine Jewelers is the exclusive purveyor of Masriera fine jewelry in St. Louis.

[Thanks to wjb1492 for today's game preview. -Matt]
I'm guessing everyone remembers the last match-up between the Bulls and Pistons, which resulted in the first W of the season for Chicago. Will tonight be another victory for the Bulls? Well, I'm not an "expert analyst" or statistically driven projection device, just a fan. So, with all the homerism I possess, I say: hell yeah!
For those around here looking for something more solid than unbridled optimism in a game preview, let's start with Tyrus, who has had some of his greatest games against the Pistons. Hopefully, Skiles remembers this and gives the kid more than 6 or 7 minutes of burn. Kirk also had his best assist game (14) of the year by far against the Pistons last time around - in fact, that game alone accounts for a whopping 17% of Kirk's total assists to date. If Skiles does decide against benching him tonight, let's hope for another performance like that. The Bulls overall have been playing a bit better of late, winning 3 of the last 4 after starting 2 and 10, and moving up to 22nd in Hollinger's Power Rankings after spending several days (weeks?) in dead last.
People who don't have a blindspot a mile wide where the Bulls are concerned might point out in rebuttal that Detroit is currently 3rd in the Hollinger Power Rankings, with a 5 game winning streak. (Personally, I wonder why such people would be spending time on a Bulls blog.)
There is also, of course, the never-ending story of Ben Wallace's defection from the Pistons, mixed with his on-going friendship with his former teammates. Quote of the day on Big Ben, courtesy of the Detroit Free Press, comes from Chauncey Billups:Billups said he has talked with Wallace a few times and, not surprisingly, Wallace isn't enjoying himself.
"You know Ben," Billups said.
"He's a sore loser. He's not happy about it at all. But I don't blame him."
I hope I live to see the day that Big Ben's relationship with his former team ceases to be a topic of conversation, but since the game is on everyone's favorite worldwide leader (6 pm start) I'm sure it will receive plenty of coverage.
Meanwhile, for me at least, this is one of those teams that a win against just seems to matter a little bit more - Detroit, New York, any team the Bulls play on TNT when Sir Charles is commenting.... So, Let's Go Bulls! (But said in a much cooler way than the Bobcats' PA guy.)

A Raleigh man died after colliding with a highway sign Saturday evening while running from authorities on his motorcycle.
Ahmad Sharrieff, 34, of Raleigh, was driving a 2011 BMW motorcycle on U.S. 70 around 6:10 p.m. in Johnston County when a North Carolina State Highway Patrol trooper attempted to stop him for speeding, authorities said.

Sharrieff lost control of his motorcycle after crossing into Wayne County and hit a highway sign near Commerce Parkway outside Princeton, authorities said.
Sharrieff died at the scene, the Highway Patrol said.

125 Tasting Notes
this one is fairly light for a black tea. the spices are really evident, love those cloves! not very sweet at all, but i suppose since the tea base itself isn't so heavy, that lets what sweetness there is shine through.
not AS incredible as i was hoping – but pumpkin spice and mom's apple pie are always the knockouts for fall, so i'm not really upset :)
still a pretty good cozy autumn tea!
really lovely end of summer blend! i wasn't expecting much from this one as chamomile isn't one of my favourite ingredients, but here it really works.
very nice, light fruit flavour from all that yummy mango, paired with the warm vanilla that makes you want to snuggle up on a chilly september night – perfect.
okay, not a 'summer tea' persay, but i guess i didn't get around to reviewing it in my last batch of samples. isn't this a fairly new tea though? i can't find it on the website… maybe it didn't do well! unfortunate.
mates are tough for me; i used to LOVE honey bee, but now when i smell it i start to feel nauseated – no idea why. anyway…
really mellony at the start, but almost sort of… bland? kind of dusty maybe, at the end. blerg. not a fan. just as well as it's not a keeper with DAVIDs either! ah well
mango mango mango! high hopes for this one, folks…
hmm, oddly tart. probably the citrus fruits in there. it truly does taste like a fruit punch, with kind of an artificial aftertaste though.
i'd try it iced, but not as a hot tea again.
it is something different though, i can see what they were going for and it will definitely work on ice.
this one scares me as a hot tea – it's sooo dark pink. i'm afraid the hibiscus might kill it, but let's dive in!
the smell is sweet, but a touch artificial. definitely tart, but not that sickening lingering kind that sticks on your tongue and won't let go. interesting!
i don't know though, up front it's just all a bit too much. this will probably be killer on ice with some sweetener, but it's not going to double up as a hot tea for me, unfortunately.
after seeing my actual sample of this, i'd say it is a rooibos before a black tea, which is honestly a little off-putting – i'm not really a fan of rooibos and i can't imagine rooibos + black + mint being good. but… we'll see.
i suppose the rooibos is in there to add a touch of natural sweetness, as it DOES smell minty and sweet. surprisingly it's not overpowering on the first sip. i don't know that i'd like this one iced – minty iced teas just don't do it for me, but as a hot tea, it is quite refreshing. the mint lingers and the black tea sort of bullies out the rooibos until the end where there's just a hint of lingering sweetness.
dang! another winner!! this is going to be an expensive summer for teas! hahah
mmm, this one smells and tastes surprisingly coconutty despite the small amount of actual coconut flakes in the sample i got, but that must be all in the wonder of flavouring!
if you like coconut though, it is really… REALLY good! which is damn unfortunate because it's a lovely (expensive!) white tea.
mmm… maybe just a special occasion tea?
i honestly can't say anything else – it's a just a lovely white tea base with a knockout coconut flavour on top, really good!
summer tea tasting day! very exciting.
first off, ALL of these teas look beautiful and just smell delicious. anyway, on to the specifics!
this one smells really fruity, even after it has been steeped, which is always nice.
it's probably the passion fruit flavouring that comes out first, then a nice wave of supportive green tea with mango lingering on the tongue.
i feel like after so many "mango and green tea" variations, DAVIDs has finally come up with this one that's just a touch more complex, more layers making this a standout tea.
i can see the fruit flavours really coming alive once iced and hit with a bit of sweetener.
i wasn't expecting to love this one, but i'd keep it on hand to have hot OR iced throughout the summer. nice one!!
coconut and lemon – i wish i could smell like this tea! (hey davids – a line of tea-themed fragrances??!)
once steeped, it's a little perfumey with the sweetness of the coconut creating a heavy base, but the lemon really lifts it back up. makes me want to bake a lemon laced coconut cake! mmmm…
i'd say this is almost an herbal with the amount of lemongrass in there, and in that case would benefit from a longer steep than my standard white tea go-to (2 min. @ 185F). still, the coconut lingers on the tongue with all that refreshing lemon up front – really nice!
i'll definitely be getting some more before the spring collection is gone :)

Add Your New Review About The Song
.... | Reviewer: Iris Solano | 10/22/07
Beautiful song, terrific lyrics.... and awesome sound, full of feeling and pure love. I've just heard this song, and all I'm thinking about is my beloved Erick, who finished our relationship after tons of love and hapiness.... Anyway, I know we'll always have each other when everything else is gone. XoXo
Inspiring !!! | Reviewer: Jenn A | 10/8/07
I want to thank Incubus for this song, which gave me chills as soon as I heard it on 92.3 K-ROCK in New York (YAY they are back!). The u2-inspired guitar first caught me, then the soaring vocals, finally the lyrics sunk in. I loved Incubus since "Wish You Were Here" years back, what an amazing underrated band that should have more play on Top 40 radion -- and "Dig" proves it all over again.
Now my boyfriend is sadly going through rehab, and this song has inspired us both in so many ways as we try to get through tough times. Thank you Incubus for this brilliant work of art that has touched and helped lives.
purely amazing | Reviewer: nora | 10/1/07
this song is amazing. not only do they talk about love, but they talk about friendship. only incubus could think of it.
We all have a weakness | Reviewer: Danny | 10/1/07
Not many songs will tell you that. You can listen to other bands that talk about themselves or sex or drugs or whatever. When songs like this tell people the reality of the world and things in the world, its a revelation in itself.
we all have a weakness, no doubt about it
I'm moved again | Reviewer: John | 9/30/07
Not since Incubus'song Drive have I made such an effort to learn all a song's lyrics. The song moves me so much that I turn it up really loud and sing it over at least three times.
Sweet | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/19/07
I really like the song Dig from the moment I 1st heard it. It reminds of everything that me and my hubby are going through. We just lost so much with in the last couple of months, but we still have each other. This song is a perfect reflection of what we have gone through.
Oh, yeah. | Reviewer: Jen Vicious | 9/11/07
This song helps me and my fiance get through hard times of fighting. Incubus has no idea how much they helped us =]
to a song with meaning like no other | Reviewer: Michael Burruano | 9/10/07
dig by incubus is my favorite song of all time.PERIOD. just recently i have lost a friend of many years, whom of which i loved and cared for very much. We've had so many expieriences together,both good and bad. and in a matter of moments, it was all gone. after this happend, i was in a state of emotional numbness. i can't begin to describe how horrible it felt. this song hit home so much i couldn't take it though. it was pretty much a description of what i wanted to tell her, to make everything right again. incubus is more than a band, they are a phenomena like no other. they have taken music to a whole new deminsion.and just a word for the band, i would like to say that i can't begin to thank you enough for your songs emotional support. it helped me dearly.
Never knew the lyrics | Reviewer: Djo | 9/10/07
As a guitarist & songwriter, I've always thought these guys were pretty awesome. But now that I read these lyrics, wow. Man- how eloquently put, how eloquently put. This one's a keeper, I think I'll learn it for my next gig. :)
raw and uncut | Reviewer: devious | 9/9/07
I love this song, becuase it is so real. We all suffer from one addiction a another, yet we all have to keep in mind that it is not the end of the world. sometimes you find all the support that you need in the people that you would least expect. My brother dedicated this song to me, I am not ashamed to say that I am an addict. I am very proud to say that it music like this that helps me stay clean and sober, even if it is one day at a time.
Timeless | Reviewer: Jeff | 9/6/07
I've always thought that Incubus was one of the most diverse and talented bands I've heard. There is so much more to these guys than meets the eye. Great composition, lyrics, harmony and vocals on this track!
so good | Reviewer: Jen | 9/6/07
i love this song. i saw them live a few days ago and even in the heat, they still gave me goose bumbs. i can listen to this one over and over again. the words are so meaningful and can be applied to so many different situations. LOVE IT!
this song is amazing! | Reviewer: taylor | 9/3/07
so i love this song and not to long ago i got this idea that when i get married i want to dance a solo...yes iam a dancer and its a big part of my life and my boyfriends we plan on getting married in the next 2 years so i just randomly got this idea and this is going to be the song i dance to! it has such a great meaning and we are always there for eachother!
amazinggg. | Reviewer: meghan | 9/2/07

While we didn't make it to the Oscars this weekend, my friend Robin and I did hear author Kelly Corrigan read from her new book, Lift. A benefit for the American Cancer Society, it was an intimate group and Kelly had us laughing and crying as she told personal stories and read excerpts from her original best-seller, The Middle Place, and her likely soon-to-be hit, Lift.
You may have read my blog post back in December 2008 -- I had just seen a very moving video on YouTube, a reading by Kelly from The Middle Place and had a feeling this video would take off. I tracked the "hit" progress. In less than 24 hours, the video climbed from 4,000 views to 16,000. Today, more than 4.5 million people have watched it and The Middle Place is a New York Times best-seller. From the connection Kelly had with her audience – and what I've read so far (the book is in the form of a letter to her young daughters) -- it looks like Lift will also soar.
One marketing strategy I find extremely interesting is her partnership with retailer Talbots. Kelly was featured along with nine other women in a spread in the recent catalogue showcasing how ordinary women integrate one great piece (from Talbots) into their wardrobe for a signature look. Additionally, on her book tour, Kelly is giving a number of readings in Talbots stores. It seems like a win-win for both: driving traffic to the stores and selling books. They pegged the demo -- I know for a fact there were at least a few Talbots shoppers at the reading we attended. And, a little fun fact: Kelly revealed she has a small but "tasteful" tattoo on her ankle which, by intent, you will not see in the Talbot's catalogue.
What cross-marketing initiatives are working for you?
P.S. I have a signed copy of Lift I'd love to share. Interested? Post a comment here with your favorite method for firing up your creative side (some of mine: scanning a paper/magazine, talking to a stranger, taking a walk). Tomorrow morning, we'll randomly pick a winner from those who posted comments here or on the Splash Facebook Fan page (we welcome you to join if you haven't). Good luck!
Here's a shot of Kelly and Kyle at the reading.

Don't mind the photo – it has nothing to do with this post except to place you in Hawaii which we serendipitously left less than 24 hours before the tsunami warning sirens started.
While there, on the island of Maui, we had our fill of delicious fresh fish: Ono, Ahi, Opakapaka, Mahimahi. We ate so much fish in fact, that on our last day, we decided to have a burger. The kids were thrilled.
So, while Cool Cat Café got high marks from the locals, we knew we had to return to Cheeseburger in Paradise. Maybe it was the restaurant's beachside location in Lahaina that drew us there or the siren call of Jack Johnson and Dire Straits coming from the guitar player upstairs (or the fact that we first ate there on our honeymoon).
Or, since we are a family of entrepreneurs, perhaps it was the story. The menu reminds us, "No Guts, No Story," and this is a story we love. In a nutshell: Two restless Southern California girls explore paradise, eat expensive fish every day and one declares, "I sure would like a great big gooey, five napkin Cheeseburger." The first Cheeseburger restaurant opened in 1989 and today there are 8 locations. The Lahaina restaurant serves 1,200 guests per day and 18,000 "cheeseburgers with an attitude" a month.

LaRoche getting closer to baseball activities
First baseman progressing in recovery from torn labrum
WASHINGTON -- Nationals first baseman Adam LaRoche said on Wednesday that his injured left shoulder is getting better, and he is expected to start baseball activities in mid-November.
LaRoche is expected to start Spring Training on time and be ready for the regular season in 2012.
"The shoulder feels great," LaRoche said via telephone. "I've had therapy at home with the local therapist, who has been in close contact with our trainers. They are all getting on the same page
"Physically, I can do baseball activities right now. But there wasn't a huge need to do it as long as the shoulder was feeling good and we didn't have any setbacks."
During Spring Training, LaRoche was diagnosed with a torn labrum. By late May, he began to feel that the shoulder was hurting his swing. In 43 games, LaRoche was hitting .172 with three home runs and 15 RBIs.
While the shoulder didn't hurt when he swung the bat, LaRoche felt it was weak and was the reason he could not generate much power.
The only time his shoulder was in pain was when he threw the baseball. LaRoche was told that he could play the entire season with the injury.
However, before the month of May came to a close, LaRoche wanted to get a second opinion on the shoulder and went to New York. It was then he was given the bad news about his rotator cuff.
During LaRoche's absence, Mike Morse, and later Chris Marrero, emerged at first base. LaRoche said the Nationals didn't promise that he would play every day at the position next season. LaRoche is set to make $8 million in 2012 in the second of a two-year deal. There is a mutual option for '13.
What also has to be taken into consideration is that first basemen Prince Fielder and Albert Pujols will become free agents following the conclusion of the World Series. Do the Nationals plan to compete for their services? It's not known.
"Obviously, anything can happen. That's their decision," LaRoche said. "That's a pretty big investment for someone who is not playing. I don't know what direction they would go. Obviously, anything is possible."
LaRoche made it clear that he wants to stay with the Nationals. He feels they are on the verge of becoming playoff contenders.
"I think this past season proves that we are not that far away. Next year is very realistic," LaRoche said. "I don't think anybody's goal is set on .500. I think everybody's goal is to be playing when the regular season is over."

Ride, Rise, Roar
Thumb to 'polymath' in the dictionary and you'll find the definition: "a person of great learning in several fields of study." In a just world, you'd also be met with an image of David Byrne's silver-topped countenance. In the past five years, the output of the former Talking Heads frontman has included (though has certainly not been limited to): penning a regular cycling column for The New York Times ; inaugurating his own internet radio station; authoring the cycling book, Bicycle Diaries ; collaborating with Fatboy Slim on Here Lies Love , a dual-disc 'disco opera' mined from the life of former Filipino First Lady/shoe fetishist Imelda Marcos; designing an artistic series of bicycle racks which were scattered throughout New York City; and reuniting with über producer Brian Eno for the album Everything That Happens Will Happen Today .
It's the elaborate world tour that Byrne embarked upon in support of that album which is chronicled in Ride, Rise, Roar. Shot on the RED digital camera—favoured by the likes of David Fincher and Steven Soderbergh—the film shifts between full-colour and black-and-white imagery, splicing live performance with rehearsal footage and on-camera interviews with Byrne, Eno and the touring talent. (After all, what Byrne documentary would be complete without at least a few 'talking heads'?)
The man Byrne entrusted with documenting proceedings is Brooklyn-based filmmaker David Hillman-Curtis, a quick skim of whose CV reveals him to be every inch Byrne's polymathic equal.
As if founding the renowned digital design firm hillmancurtis.com, inc wasn't enough, he's published four highly regarded books on new media design and served as design director for Macromedia (where his work moved French tech journal Canoë to crown him "le pape du Flash" [the Pope Of Flash] in 2000). It was his online Artist Series of short documentary portraits that first brought the director to Byrne's attention. On the strength of these thinkspace snapshots—of Milton Glaser, Mark Romanek and Paula Scher, among others—Hillman-Curtis was commissioned to direct a short documentary for the deluxe release of Everything Happens.
"The whole thing with him and Brian was fascinating," the filmmaker tells Beat down the line from his NYC home. "They were passing MP3s back and forth. Occasionally they'd show up at each other's studios. But not that often. It was mostly MP3s.
"After that was done [Byrne] was jumping out on the tour, and I asked him if we could come and shoot," he continues. "I thought it would be another short film [but] a year and a half later, we were looking at a feature."
Hillman-Curtis commenced the project with no set rationale in mind. "We started shooting the rehearsals, getting really rich footage because the rehearsals were not typical. It wasn't a four-piece band jumping around. There were choreographers. It was pretty neat stuff."
Byrne himself had choreographed The Talking Heads' 1984 tour that was filmed by Jonathan Demme for the concert film Stop Making Sense. This time, however, Byrne tendered choreographic control to a quartet of modern dance specialists whose avant-garde methods inspired him. "David said 'I want the film to show what it's like to be on stage with your dancers – how physical and kind of sexy it is'," Hillman-Curtis explains. "I edited the film. I had a complete version and I presented it to David and he said, 'It's good, but the live performances you're just not getting.'"
"I was a little threatened," he confesses. But he took the assessment quickly in his stride. And so, with what he'd thought to be a finished film on his hands, Hillman-Curtis swallowed his pride, and, on the advice of his collaborator, employed a specialist editor to readdress the concert footage. "That kind of made the movie," he admits. "I would put songs back in [the edit] and suddenly it just got real exciting, real fast."
As a performance documentary of the 'putting on a show' persuasion, Ride, Rise, Roar was inspired in part by Hillman-Curtis' enduring love for the work of Bob Fosse. "The films I referenced were All That Jazz and Cabaret. I tried to get into that a little bit." Demme's Stop Making Sense, meanwhile, wasn't revered so much as an influence, but rather a benchmark of quality. "We felt like if we could just touch the hem of that film, we'd be in good shape," the filmmaker tells. "[But] I didn't really immerse myself in documentaries or study up."
When discussing influences, one name crops up which strikes Beat as intriguing coming from a documentarian native to the US: Peter Weir. The mere mention of the revered Australian filmmaker—director of such diverse narrative pictures as The Cars That Ate Paris, The Truman Show, Dead Poets Society and Master And Commander—ignites a palpable passion in the soft-spoken New Yorker. "What I love about his stuff… He's not afraid to slow things down," Hillman-Curtis enthuses with a smile Beat can hear down the line. "In The Year of Living Dangerously, the way he uses the camera… It can be a little spooky and dreamy and ethereal. I don't think as much of that made it into [Ride, Rise, Roar] as maybe I'd have liked. But all that stuff, it's just in the back of my mind whenever I'm cutting, or whenever I'm shooting. I love his work. I've got all of his films and I watch them constantly. If you watch any of my short films, I hope some of it comes out, because he's kind of a hero."
Aside from his documentary work, Hillman-Curtis has a respectable catalogue of short fiction films to his name. Along with the Artist Series, these shorts are streamable for free at hillmancurtis.com. "I keep the short films free and basically available to anyone," he tells. "I originally got into Flash 'cause I always wanted to make movies. I still like web design, but I'm just really happy right now doing film work."
With Rise, Ride, Roar touring the festival circuit and playing exclusive engagements worldwide, Hillman-Curtis is parting ways—for the time being, at least—with David Byrne for his next feature film, a project he calls "a weird documentary."
"It's dealing with a designer/artist named Stefan Sagmeister." Sagmeister is already the subject of an Artist Series short and clearly an individual who fascinates the filmmaker almost as much as Byrne, Eno and Weir. "It's tentatively titled The Happy Film. He's been exploring ways to train his mind the way you would train your body. To basically be happier, I guess." For Hillman-Curtis, it's an occasion to follow a few of his pet creative impulses at once. "We're at about 15 minutes [of a complete cut] on that one, and it's going to sound weird, but it seems like it's half narrative, half documentary." And what about that Weir influence—will anything point to it this time around? "Yes!," he beams. "A lot more of that has come into play."
Ride, Rise, Roar plays as part of ACMI's First Look program and screens from January 14-17 2011. For session times and to book tickets, visit acmi.net.au.

Safari in iOS 8 uses camera to scan and enter credit card info
In iOS 8, Apple has a new feature in Safari that allows users to scan a credit card with the device's camera rather than manually entering the number when making a purchase online.
This is a nice evolution of their current gift card code scanning implementation.
Apple integrates LLVM compiler to boost WebKit JavaScript performance
Since compilers already make fast code, why not take advantage?
The result is a healthy performance boost. FTL produces code that is more than 40 times faster than the interpreter, with benchmarks taking about a third less time to run than the old three-tier system.
A very interesting solution

I don't want another a big screen watch thing on my wrist. Maybe Apple will prove me wrong, I just want something that combines the the concept of a FitBit/FuelBand with an iPod Shuffle and Bluetooth audio.

Patent Touch ID Patent Shows How Apple Secures Fingerprint Information
Brilliant! This sounds pretty well designed.
The patent describes a system that not only siloes data on the Touch ID "enclave" section of the A7 processor, but that also encrypts the fingerprint maps registered on the device to make it that much more difficult for any thieves to even attempt to pull the data off in any kind of usable form. The enclave is a one-way street, too: the system can check new fingerprints against the stored ones, but there's no way to check or call up the stored fingerprints at all for external examination once they're registered.
It is simply amazing to see the process and automation in place to assemble the new Mac Pro.

It's the year of Robert Griffin III in college football and we're all along for the ride. The Baylor junior continued his outstanding season on Saturday as the Bears easily put away Rice, 56-31. But it was Griffin's stats that, once again, deserve attention.
Griffin completed 28 of 32 passes for 332 yards and five touchdowns against the Owls while also rushing for 51 yards and a score. His ability to shred a secondary with his arm has been almost mind-boggling, and certainly entertaining to watch. While we're just three games in, Griffin III is compiling stats at an impressive pace.
Just how good has he been? Let Stewart Mandel explain:
Three games in, Robert Griffin III now has MORE touchdown passes (13) than incompletions (12)
Of all the stats, this one stands out above the crowd. To have more touchdown passes than balls that hit the turf, even if it's just in three games, shows how well Griffin has played.
If you haven't been already, it's time to pay attention to Griffin. You won't regret it.

More than 150 Wasps supporters joined Serge Betsen last week to help him celebrate his Benefit Year at the fourth London Wasps Supporters Club "It's Not Just a Question of Sport" evening. It was an England v France battle with LWSC President Dave Walder leading the English team of Josh Lewsey and Fraser Waters and Serge leading the French team of Olivier Azam and Ben Broster (who became French for the night!).
The highlight of the evening was definitely the Towersey Morris Dancers putting both teams through their paces – Serge took to this traditional English pastime scarily well and Dave's look of totally concentration was a sight to behold!
Other golden moments included Josh arguing about the scoring (the French team were in the lead at the time!), Ben's too rude to publish winning "What Happened Next" quote, Olivier's wonderful command of English when coming up with a (losing but highly amusing) answer in the "To Tweet or Not to Tweet" round and Fraser arguing about everything with the compere, Paul Farris!
The French team won and Serge led a rendition of "La Marseillaise" with Olivier and the French supporters in the room joining in – Ben surprisingly didn't seem to know the words!
The LWSC would like to thank Paul Farris Entertainment (www.paulfarris.tv) for putting on another superb event ably assisted by the audio visual company Hot AV. Also thanks should go to Simon, Sue and the team from Adams Park for all their help and hard work on the night. Thanks also to our very generous sponsors – Quantum Colour, Hazelvine, Grundon Waste Management Limited, Momentous Moving, Risborough Rugby Club and The Whiteleaf Cross Public House in Princes Risborough – and to the providers of raffle prizes – London Wasps, Bollinger, Hazelvine and the London Wasps Community Foundation.
The biggest thank you goes to the supporters who attended – their generosity means that over £2,000 was raised which will be split between Serge's Benefit Year charities – Fight for Sight (www.fightforsight.org.uk) and the Serge Betsen Academy – and the London Wasps Community Foundation.
Look out for a full report (with lots of photos!) in the Supporters Club pages of the Sale programme on 6th March.

Reviews for The Subtle Arts Of Murder And Persuasion LyricsPerformed by Lamb Of God
Add Your New Review About The Song
Hmm | Reviewer: Alabaster | 5/1/09
Like most songs on New American Gospel, these lyrics are only partially correct, due to the admitted heavy inebriation of front man Randy Blythe during the recording process. He has also admitted to not knowing, himself, what the true recorded lyrics to each song is, but these are the written lyrics on the inside of the album. It is also recommended that any reviewer who should decide to constructively criticize the official posted album lyrics should learn proper grammar and spelling before attempting to behave derisively to anyone, lest they come off as a moron.
07/15/2008 | Reviewer: sean | 7/16/08

By Sandra Birungi
Residents of Nebbi district have proposed that to reduce the increasing cases of violence against women, women should start paying bride price.
In African tradition, the man pays bride price as a gift or thanksgiving to the girl's parents for taking care of their daughter until adulthood. However, it has contributed greatly to domestic violence in Uganda with women unable to go back to their homes because the men want their bride price returned if the woman goes back.
With this background, residents of Nebbi sub-county have urged parliament to come up with laws to make women pay dowry. Peter Owachgiu, a resident of Koch Central said men paying bride price has rendered women vulnerable. "If things do not change, women will continue being punching bags for men because after paying bride price, men assume absolute authority," Owachgiu said.
Project officer with Gender Based Violence Shelter, Immaculate Awor said the violence can only end if men learnt to communicate effectively to their partners. "For example, in India, women pay dowry for their husbands and yet they continue to be abused by men," she said.
Baifa Wanican, the officer in charge of child and family protection at Nebbi Police Station, said they receive at least 20 cases of gender-based violence every week. "This is a worrying figure and most of the cases arise from property wrangles and women claiming to have been abandoned by their husbands," she said.

Marte Marie Forsberg is a food and lifestyle photographer from Oslo, Norway. Encouraged by her parents to explore and value other cultures, Marie grew up with a love for travel. Living in and visiting many countries over the years, Marie's passion for food was also kindled, and she began documenting her adventures and eats regularly.
Today, Marie's photography is marked by a sense of refinement and minimalism. Just as gifted in her styling skills as she is in photography, the two abilities allow her to create a scene, notice the mood and nuances of the set, & capture an image that tells a story to it's viewer. To aid her in this process, Marie edited the following images with VSCO Cam™.
I grew up in a very creative family, where from an early age I played around with my dad's old cameras. It was all film, and so I signed up for a photography developing class at 15. My beloved mother is such a wonderfully creative being. It feels like I spent most of my early childhood years on the kitchen counter next to her, observing and helping out as she cooked up fun and adventurous dishes. Summers were spent in her herb garden. There breakfast was served, eating mouthwatering strawberries with thick cream, in a hammock underneath the big maple tree. But it wasn't until my college years, when I signed up for an introductory photography class, that my love and passion for photography was reignited again. I knew I wanted to use this as my creative medium, but I was not sure what I most enjoyed seeing through the lens. So, I started photographing what I was surrounded by. Being an above average food lover, that's what I began photographing, my childhood love for food.
What was your favorite home cooked meal growing up?
Oh, it must be Brun lapskaus. It's a slow cooked stew with beef, potatoes and different vegetables one has at hand. After hours of cooking, it is a delicious comfort food, served with flatbread, butter and red lemonade. I used to love snuggling up by the open fireplace in the kitchen with a bowl of this stew.
The guide is being created as a direct response to all the emails and comments I get through social media, asking me about the images I post of food, cafes and restaurants. So, as I moved back to Norway, I began exploring my own hometown of Oslo again and thought I´d make a guide with a very strong sense of aesthetics, quality in interior design and overall experience in the places I am choosing to include. It's by no means a full guide to the city, covering every angle and pleasing every need a non-local may have. Rather, it is a personal afternoon wander through my Oslo. I hope the reader will feel like the guide is an intimate adventure of this charming Norwegian capital and that even if they never go, they will have a feeling of the city through my guide filled with images, little notes, addresses and comments from my black book of travel.
Scandinavian minimalism, nostalgic, quiet, soft and with a dash of melancholy.
You credit your travels with reigniting your passion for food. Is there a certain culture's food that resonates most with you?
Oh, that's tricky. Having spent the last 15 years living on and off in different countries around the world, my food taste is very much flavored by all the lovely places I've lived in and visited. So, I think if I could choose a country for each meal of the day, it would look something like this:
- Breakfast in France with croissants and jam - Afternoon tea with scones and clotted cream in England - Lunch in Tokyo with delicious light and fresh sushi - Dinner in Norway indulging in a Christmas meal feast - Aperitivo in Italy nibbling away at all kinds of fun and tasty dishes - Dessert in Scandinavia with fresh strawberries from the garden & whipping cream - Evening snack in Denmark indulging lustfully in delicious Danish pastries
All these places and their food hold a special place in my heart. Although culturally very different, what the above-mentioned meals have in common is that these meals are all about the people, the flavors and the conversations around the table. That is what I love most about a good meal, sharing the experience and bringing people together over a well-cooked meal.
To me, styling and photography revolves around one big factor, the light.The light source really is what I think makes it or breaks it. Light is what makes a still life come alive, and it's what allows you to put one lonely cup of tea on a table edge and create a scene that can move people, all because of how the light creates a story by the way it falls upon the subject. I know it's a well used phrase, but less is more.
To me, it's all about creating a story when I style; so, I'll spend a long while sourcing props that alone or together have something in them that adds to the scene. I often end up working with props that are used, cracked, chipped and look like they have lived a long life, even it's subtle. To me, that adds a bit of soul to the scene. Having said all that, I love the challenge of breathing life into new things. Working with modern and new props is really fun and creates a completely different atmosphere.
