Williams not the only future ex-Cowboy
Much has been made about how Sunday's game against the Eagles might be the final one in WR Roy Williams' disappointing time in Dallas, but he would not be the only one.
Bryant has undergone surgery on his broken left index finger after postponing the procedure for the final three games of the season. The team reported Tuesday's successful surgery on its website. Bryant decided to play through the injury because the Cowboys were still in playoff contention. They lost the finale at Washington 28-18 with the NFC East title at stake.||||||| Bryant broke the finger in the fourth quarter at Cincinnati on Dec. 9 and caught a game-changing touchdown pass after the injury. He had a career-high 224 yards two weeks later against New Orleans. A franchise record-tying touchdown streak of seven games ended against the Redskins. The third-year pro finished with career highs of 1,382 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Bryant showed no ill-effects from a broken finger, finishing with nine catches for a career-high 224 yards and two touchdowns in the Cowboys' loss to New Orleans on Sunday.||||||| Bryant has been one of the top fantasy receivers down the stretch, with 10 touchdowns in his last seven games.
Bryant says he will play with a broken finger Sunday against Pittsburgh. The Dallas Cowboys receiver was listed as a limited participant in practice Thursday, an upgrade from a day earlier, when he sat out. Dallas coach Jason Garrett said he caught some passes in practice after saying before the workout he didn't think Bryant would. Bryant said in the locker room after practice that the "only thing y'all need to know is I'm playing."||||||| The third-year pro fractured his left index finger in last weekend's 20-19 win at Cincinnati. He caught a touchdown after getting injured. Bryant practiced with a padded white glove that had the tip of the finger exposed.
Bryant is seeing another doctor to help determine if he can play the rest of this season with a broken finger on his left hand.||||||| Coach Jason Garrett said Wednesday that the team and the player are getting more medical information to figure out the best way to handle the situation. He says Bryant's health now and going forward are "huge factors" in making a decision. Bryant broke his finger in Sunday's victory at Cincinnati, though he returned a few plays after the injury and caught a touchdown.
Bryant hauled in six receptions for 98 yards and two more TDs in Sunday night's 38-33 win over Philadelphia.||||||| Bryant now has six scores over his last four games and is finally living up to his enormous potential. He should be considered a top-10 option down the stretch.

News: Female Tyga Fan Flees From Cops Singing 'Rack City' Anthem, Stopped & Arrested
Friday, Apr 20, 2012 4:35PM
A female fan of Young Money rapper Tyga is making headlines this weekend for recently getting arrested after fleeing from cops while rapping to Tyga's "Rack City" anthem.
According to recent reports, a 21 year-old female graffiti artist got caught tagging up a college campus.
Tyga's "Rack City" can make people do crazy things. That mischievous bass line alone incites some wild behavior, but it had a lasting effect on one girl. The 21-year-old tagged up her campus and and fled from police all in the name of "Rack City." She eventually got caught and arrested, but it was probably worth it. Check out this story from a local paper. (Complex)
The female tagger reportedly got caught spraying down multiple buildings.
Alyssa Bloechl, 21, Merill, was cited for disorderly conduct after being caught spray painting the words "Rack City B*tch" on several campus buildings. Once spotted by campus police, Bloechl fled the scene while shouting "ten ten ten twenties on ya t*tties b*tch" at the pursuing police men. Bloechl was eventually stopped and arrested. (ItsTheReal)
In February, Hollywood actress Vanessa Hudgens admitted her love for "Rack City."
The conversation turned to music, after Jimmy Fallon asked her what she was listening to. Hudgens named a number of groups, like the Black Keys and Elbow. Jimmy spoofed that he was listening to Sade, and Vanessa countered with Rack City. Jimmy didn't know the song, so Vanessa sang a verse of the, shall we say, bouncy tune. "And 'Rack City?' Rack, rack, rack city chick. Rack, rack, rack city chick," Hudgens recited to Fallon when he said he was unaware of the tune. "Throwin' hundreds, hundreds! Hundreds, hundreds. [laughs] That's my slogan." (The Improper)
Last month, Terror Squad's Fat Joe talked about tagging up Lil Wayne's crib.
"I live down the block, across the street from him and yesterday, the n*gga called me up and said, 'Please, Joe, it would be an honor if you do a TS Joey Crack piece in my house,'" Joe said in an interview. "Never in my life [have I done graffiti in someone's house]. I tried to talk him out of it like, 'Wayne, for real, you have a gazillion dollar mansion -- please don't do this.' He was like, 'Nah, Crack, I got a spot right there for you.' I was like, 'Wayne...why?' He said, 'Crack, we need it.' ... He got ramps on his ceiling and all that sh*t. Yeah, he's doing that to the highest level. I was there and he was building a f*cking skateboard. He was like, 'Yo Crack, you got to put this here.' He found a new love, something he loves to do and that's dope. He's living and drinking and eating the skateboarding sh*t." (XXL Mag)

Illegal dentists' equipment put to good use at Abbotsford dental clinic
Dental equipment and materials seized from illegal dentists will be put to good use at the Abbotsford Food Bank Free Dental Clinic.
The clinic was the recipient of a donation from the College of Dental Surgeons of BC (CDSBC) on Monday, receiving items that had been seized from three illegal dentists operating in the province.
The confiscated equipment and materials will be cleaned and/or sterilized before being used for patient care, while items that are not appropriate for patient use are being destroyed.
Dr. Chris Barlow, an Abbotsford dentist who volunteers at the clinic, said donations are vital to providing dental services to those in need.
The Abbotsford Free Dental Clinic helps residents with low income and little or no dental coverage. It is serviced by local dentists, certified dental assistants, and hygienists who volunteer their time and services.
CDSBC is donating dental chairs, suction and surgical equipment, high- and low-speed dental drills, endodontic (root canal) material, impression material and trays, and restorative material to various clinics.
Barlow said dental health is extremely important to a person's overall well-being, health and self-esteem.
Clinic administrator Lala Khankishi-Zade explained that helping people with dental problems can improve their confidence, allowing them to go out and seek jobs and decrease their dependence on the food bank.
She said everything in the clinic is donated, and it is always in need of donations. Cheques can be made out to the Abbotsford Food Bank, with a note to designate the funds to the dental clinic. The food bank is located at 33914 Essendene Ave. Donations can also be made online at www.abbotsfordfoodbank.com.
CDSBC took action against three illegal dentists last year. To check the registration status of your dentist by checking the online Directory of Dentists at www.cdsbc.org.

So, Robert Pattinson fans, just how devoted are you? Always eager to see him fight for Bella in the "Twilight" franchise, a lot of those same fans seem to disappear when does anything that doesn't involve vampires and werewolves. As long expected, his upcoming literary adaptation "Bel Ami," has been confirmed this morning make its world premiere (out of competition) at the Berlin International Film Festival, and we'll be curious to see if RPatz lovers will tolerate him playing a cad.
Based on the book by Guy de Maupassant and featuring Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas and Christina Ricci, "Bel Ami" will find Pattinson playing George Duroy, a sexy social climber in turn-of-the-century 1890s Paris, who seduces his way to wealth and fame from a poor beginning. Sony has already given the movie a vote of confidence, picking up the rights last fall, and we suppose the reception in Berlin will determine whether it gets a splashy awards season release or...something else.
Also headed to Germany will be Steven Soderbergh's "Haywire," which also opens in U.S. theaters today. You already know all about this one. It stars MMA fighter Gina Carano who spends about 90 minutes making mincemeat out of her co-stars which include Channing Tatum, Ewan McGregor, Antonio Banderas, Michael Douglas, Michael Fassbender and more. Germans will be getting their first taste of the movie with this out-of-competition premiere.
Also of note: James Marsh's "Shadow Dancer" which is making its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, will head to Berlin right after for its European debut. Based on the novel by Tom Bradby, the film will center on The Troubles in Ireland in the 1960s, and tell the story of a young woman -- a former IRA terrorist turned informer for Blighty's MI5 -- whose brothers are both heavily involved with the IRA. When she is arrested over an aborted bombing attempt in London, she is forced to reveal her past if she wishes to see her children again. Clive Owen and Andrea Riseborough star. Meanwhile, Tsui Hark will unveil his 3D "Flying Swords Of Dragon Gate."

The fans of Rob are eagerly waiting for more than a year to see this movie. No teens in the audience this time, Bel ami is R-rated. Of course this is a small art house movie, don't expect big BO numbers. The part Rob is playing is totally different from his previous roles. What is interesting is that Rob dares to take challenging, different roles. This year we'll be able to see him as a 19-century social climber, a 17-year old vampire in love with a human girl and a billionaire New-York yuppie who, in an odysee through the city, risks his whole fortune while contemplating about the meaning of his existence.
Kanerwa | January 20, 2012 1:17 PM
So ,so called ''professional '' jurnalists ,when you stop using this patronizing tone towards Robert Pattinson and his fans?
Ask Ch. Bale fans if they will tolerate him as a priest :D
Rose | January 20, 2012 11:46 AM
Jeez, why the double standard for Pattinson's non-Twilight movies indiewire? I haven't heard a peep from you (unless I miss it) when Johnny Depp's Rum Diary flopped big time when it opened wide. And he's a bigger star and have had way more blockbusters under his belt than Pattinson. Pattinson's Remember Me made 19M domestic on a 16M budget and 36M more overseas. Rum Diary made 13M domestic plus 9M overseas on a 45M budget. Go figure.
Paulina | January 20, 2012 11:33 AM
I'm fans of Rob and I will enjoy this film, like I also love Christina Ricci, Uma and Kristin Scott Thomas.
emma | January 20, 2012 10:54 AM
Robert Pattinson fans will see him in about anything. Your confusion probably stems from thinking Robert Pattinson fans and Twilight fans are the same thing. They are not but they intercept.
maybebaby | January 20, 2012 10:08 AM
RPatz lovers will tolerate him playing a cad, I can assure you! I'm not talking about Edward lovers though.
M | January 20, 2012 10:05 AM
Berlin isn't worth the coverage. Where are the masters? That's right, they're all waiting for Cannes and Venice.
Ian | January 20, 2012 9:04 AM
Bel Ami is being released in March. Sony partnered with IFC on the film (like they did Salvation Boulevard and London Boulevard).

Now I am not calling bust on Donald Brown at this point, to me the jury is still out on him. To me, his blocking is suspect andhe looks like he may have a hard time staying healthy in this league. I love his speed and playmaking ability, but there are some things about him that make me scared he will be a bust.
If Toby Gerhard is availiable in the late 1st or 2nd round, I think we should grab him. He seems like a Brandon Jacobs type to me with a little more speed. Also, his is an excellent student majoring in Management Science and Engineering at Stanford while carrying a 4.0 GPA. Sounds a lot like a certain Colts QB I know.
Bottom line, this guy is a beast and I would love to see him in the Speed Blue and White! Discuss:

Good Afternoon SkedX'ers!
Today I wanted to share with you all how software can foster greater idea sharing about internal processes of your organization. Having a social media profile has become a standard among society, and it is gradually becoming the norm to have it a part of your work network as well. If you are a regular reader here at the SkedCast you know that engagement, social media, and how those two combined to create a online portal is a favourite topic of ours. I want to share with you all how a couple companies are implementing workforce management software and social media to create an engagement solution that generates increased brainstorming among employees.
North Shore Pediatric Therapy, a clinic with 45 employees in three locations successfully implemented an online portal/network that promoted internal collaboration. They introduced an online tool to make it easier and more accessible for front line employees to share their ideas. Ideas ranged from increasing efficiency, quality and client satisfaction directly related to process teams, and how employees can create and continue a self-sustaining cycle of improvement. The teams then take their suggestions and turn them into online projects, aiming to resolve issues. The software was implemented in January 2010 and the teams have completed a combined 46 process projects, 82 smaller improvement assignments, and resolved 63 issues reported by front line employees. By focusing on and engaging the front line, revenue has seen an increase in 15% and costs reduced by 15% as well . As CEO Dr. David Michael puts it, "the greatest benefit has been the creation of an innovative, client-focused, and employee-driven company."
Another company that has also successfully implemented software to increase engagement and idea generation among employees is Chevron. The oil company uses a software application to create and maintain a library of standard work procedures. It is has been published that across the entire organization policies were dispersed to increase internal awareness. In other departments of the organization, the company focuses more on process improvement by introducing a management solution to improve what problems employees communicate on a day-to-day basis.
Software and modern mobile technologies are a great way to make information more accessible to employees, as well as promote internally what the organization is truly about, objectives for the month/year, and where the organizations stands internally in terms of success. We can see that software was a successful implementation in both organizations and those employees seek it as an information tool that helps them to complete tasks to the best of their ability. HR and retail managers should consider how to implement software in the workplace to see bottom line success, the year's hot topics have been engagement and building a rich culture, so shouldn't you be focusing on that as well?

Ladies figure skaters have always stolen the spotlight at the Olympics, and this year, it's shining bright on Polina Edmunds, Gracie Gold and Ashley Wagner.
The team has been grabbing headlines ever since they were selected at nationals in Boston last month.
With Ashley's selection was especially contentious because of a disappointing performance at the garden. However, she tells me she is gunning for the medal podium.
"I have worked so hard these past three weeks to really redefine who I am as a skater, and I completely changed the way I approach training. I have put in the work for this medal, and I'm ready to go get it," Ashley said.
Ashley and Gracie already won bronze as part of the team competition earlier in the games, and Gracie said that's not the only highlight.
She also got a shoutout from her celebrity look-alike.
"Taylor Swift tweeted me, so that might be close to number one right there," Gracie said.
15-year-old Polina has also gotten a lot of attention.
After two incredible skates in Boston, which vaulted her from unknown to the talk of the national championships, the young skater arrived in Sochi only this past weekend. She said watching Team USA skate on TV geared her up for her chance.
"While I was in Austria, I did get to see the men perform, and it was just so exciting. And I was just thinking how much I couldn't wait to get on the ice there as well," Polina said.
South Korea's Yuna Kim is the defending gold medalist and it's likely she'll end up at the top of the podium.
But with the Olympics, anything can happen.

An environmental group, community leaders, and educators joined in March to create a mock flood at a California elementary school, demonstrating the effectiveness of the site's watershed management plan.
Members of the Open Charter Elementary School community in Westchester, Calif., joined environmental group TreePeople and various local school and park officials to create a 4000-gallon flash flood using a water tanker and fire hoses. The resulting downpour swept across the campus, collecting trash and pollutants. Instead of flushing the pollutants out to the Santa Monica Bay, the water was diverted through a cleaning unit and into an underground tank where it was stored and used to irrigate trees and grass playing fields.
The demonstration was part of an event celebrating the completion of a five-year infrastructure project at the site.
"This project transformed our school into a beautiful oasis with grass ballfields, trees, and gardens that actually help protect the surrounding neighborhood and the beach," said school principal Robert Burke. "The kids love tending to the trees and plants and watching things grow—it's a great way to teach about caring for the natural world."
The stormwater component of the project was funded by a $500,000 grant from the Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission. The city of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power funded the landscaping and trees through its Cool Schools program. For more information, visit www.treepeople.org.

BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) -- The Boston School Committee is reportedly weighing a measure that would give high school students across the city access to condoms.
Under the policy change, students at any of the city's high schools would be able to get condoms from either a heath service partner, the city's health commission, or a designated school staff member, reports the Boston Globe.
The change was presented as part of a larger health and wellness policy put before the committee Wednesday. The policy further discusses sexual education, as well as other topics such as nutrition and bullying prevention.
Current policy only allows some high schools with health centers to make condoms available for students.
The School Committee is expected to bring the policy change to a vote later this month. No committee member has voiced their disapproval for the policy at this point, reports the Globe.
This is not the first time there has been discussion of making condoms available to Boston students. In 2011, a student group known as the Hyde Square Task Force made a push for the contraceptives to be available in schools, citing a steep rise in STDs and unplanned teen pregnancies.

Behold the arepa pizza.
Some of my fondest memories of living in Colombia as a kid revolve around this dense Latin American corn cake. The most basic varieties in Bogotá are made with starchy white corn flour pressed into 1/4-inch thick cakes, then grilled until cooked through. It's served with butter, local cheese or hogao, a sauce made of sautéed onions, tomato, cumin, salt and pepper.
Then there are the arepas de huevo in Barranquilla, which are deep-fried, split open then stuffed with an egg. There's also the extremely hearty arepa con todo, which, living up to its name, can have everything from chicharrón to salsa verde.
This recipe is an American version of that, I suppose!

Verge readers are easily fooled
Seeing this article:
If the sole reason and motive for Google was EAS licensing fee, I would be on Google's side. Left completely out in the article, and therefore much of the discussion is the issue regarding Youtube.
I would say that dropping EAS-support is a bummer for the consumer. However, I feel the issue of YouTube is the pressing one in this matter. See this blog post for more.
What do you guys think?

Museum On Main feels pinch of economy, but remains optimistic
Original post made on Jan 18, 2009
Executive Director Julia Bussinger, who began as the head of the museum in January 2008, was let go last week, and the position will not be replaced to save costs.

Did Wright have to let go of an important position, Executive Director, because of the lack of projected funds, due to the loss of only one event? Wright says there has NOT been a decline in donations by memberships, so why then should that position be cut? She states:
"Essentially, the executive board is pretty much it..." Isn't the Executive Director part of the Executive Board? What good is a board without it's Director?.... Politics...Roz Wright, who took over last week as interim president of the Livermore-Amador Valley Historical Society, runs the museum here in Pleasanton. Why don't we here in Pleasanton have someone run the Pleasanton Museum? Someone that perhaps, has Pleasanton as their First Priority. Has there been any cuts for Livermore's Museum?
on Jan 18, 2009 at 10:44 pm
By the way the museum here in Pleasanton needs some improvements in upkeep. It's lovely on the outside but the inside needs something....it smells of mold and bothers me when ever I visit. It would be nice if the city could kick in a few bucks to help out this non-profit organization that holds events and bring interest to our city of Pleasanton. Or would it be the building owners responsibility to do that...?

Headline writer: Commonly the word "fired" is reserved for people who lose their jobs for mistakes, malfeasance or incompetence. It usually reflects negatively on the fired person.
The article implies the board decided they couldn't fund or justify the position based on the economy. Sometimes that's called a lay off, a reduction in force or a redundancy. I suspect some will argue that "fired" can be used in this case, but it seems a harsh word for a person who (probably) gave up another position to come here and serve as director.

Digital Innovation
Changing economic conditions, growing brand categories and emerging digital technologies are continually influencing consumer and shopper behavior. To become better informed about their purchasing decisions, today's consumers are relying more on digital sources including online retailers, social media and mobile technologies. This is not only transforming how consumers buy but how consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies can engage with them.
While most CPG companies have basic digital capabilities in place, many struggle to fully integrate them into their innovation and brand/marketing processes. When companies don't take advantage of these innovative new ways to connect with consumers, they miss out on opportunities to increase profit and sales, gain new consumer insights and ultimately deliver a better consumer experience.
As the digital space continues to grow in influence, it is more critical than ever to create a Digital Innovation approach that supports business strategy and goals. Kalypso helps clients fully integrate Digital Innovation into strategy, plans and execution to deliver sustainable results.
Kalypso's Digital Innovation methodology focuses on two key areas:
- Digital Marketing – Interactive marketing via a digital suite of tools - including branded sites, e-commerce, i-media, social media, search, e-crm, mobile and mobile commerce - to engage consumers online to take some form of action. Digital tactics are selected and integrated into an "activation map" that enables the best marketing solution for the intended consumer target.
- Social Product Development – Creating and implementing a comprehensive social strategy that supports business goals for product development and innovation. Social technologies, software and applications are evaluated based on business needs. Social strategy and technology are integrated into product development business processes, from Front End of Innovation through support for in-market products.
Kalypso's deep experience in CPG and systematic view of new product and service development can help move companies from a place of relative uncertainty to a position of competitive advantage, where digital innovation is a proven and measureable "win" internally and externally.

Even WarmerUPDATED 6:24 PM EST Mar 05, 2014
As any left over snow melts temperatures will continue to climb.Video Transcript
(DON'T TALK) High pressure will provide quiet weather the rest of this week. While there will be some clouds from time to time, also anticipate plenty of sunshine. This will melt leftover snow and allow temperatures to really warm the rest of the week. Temperatures will actually climb above average by the end of the week, with nights not nearly as cold by Friday. A weak cool front will bring the threat for a few showers late Saturday night, otherwise the forecast looks tranquil and dry as we climb close to 60 by early next week. No major storms are on the horizon, and a break from the cold is expected the next 5 days. YOU MAY WANT TO STOP... BEFORE YOUR SWIPE.

Seriously, is that all they talk about on that channel? Oh, and I just love the fact the College Football Final barely mentioned the primtime destruction of Iowa Saturday night. I think this is about what it looked like. They show OSU vs Purdue highlight sthen show a screen with some scores on it and Rece Davis says "by the way Penn State wins its 5th game in a row over Iowa" THATS IT!!! I hate to say there is a bias here, but there is a huge bias against PSU. We all know why so I wont mention "IT". I mean c'mon. They are not even ranked in the top 25 AP poll. I know they are not elible for anything so it doesnt matter. OSU is ranked and the cant play for anything either. If PSUplays the way they did for the first 3 quarters of Saturdays game against anybody but the TOP 5 maybe TOP 10 teams in the country I am picking PSU all the way!
Now just for fun I will do impression of the scripts that the hosts read on ESPN
"SEC SEC SEC SEC SEC, BIG 12. B1G sucks, SEC SEC SEC SEC SEC. Geno Smith SEC SEC. Nick Saban is Jesus, SEC SEC SEC. Pac 12, SEC SEC SEC B1G sucks! New BCS Rankings out today and the SEC leads the Way with an unprecedented 7 teams in ther TOP 5. Now let s go to Lou Holtz in the studio. Lou: Notre Dame Notre Dame SEC. SEC SEC Notre Dame South Carolina. Thanks Lou!! Mark May what do you have for us? Mark?...Mark?...... well it seems Mark May shot himself because he remember he went to PITT. B1G sucks, SEC SEC SEC SEC, Matt Barkley, Geno Smith SEC SEC.That wrapped it up here at College Football Final"

Tattoo above by Amanda Wachob.
My morning has gotten off to a great start thanks to BBC Radio 4's "A Mortal Work of Art" -- a wonderfully produced program that explores the intersection of the tattoo and fine art worlds. With the program 28 minutes long, I figured I'd just let in play on my laptop while I busied myself with other tasks; however, the really insightful discussion on the artistry of tattooing stopped me from doing anything else, so I just sat down and learned something.
What makes the program so compelling is that Mary Anne Hobbs, who hosted the piece, talks to the very people who have changed tattooing in the fine art context and who have shared very different ways of viewing tattoo art:
The legendary Spider Webb brought tattooing into galleries, museums, and even Christie's auction house, particularly for his conceptual tattoo projects, which he still continues to innovate today. He also talks to the BBC about fighting NYC's tattoo ban (which wasn't overturned until 1997).
London's Alex Binnie, owner of the famed Into You Tattoo, shares his thoughts on tattooing's impact on pop culture -- an impact greater than any the fine art world has had. The program ends on a strong note with his assertions on why tattooing doesn't need validation from anyone other than those wearing it.
Amanda Wachob discusses what motivated her to experiment with nontraditional tattoo imagery, to offer something different to clients beyond the standard menu, which has made her one of the most sought-after tattooers in New York.
Of course, our good friend Dr. Matt Lodder, art historian, is brilliant when he discusses what tattooing can gain by being accepted as an art form; that is, real critique of what is good, bad, derivative, ethical, new ... rather than looking at tattoos as one homogenous thing. He's currently writing a book on tattooing in the UK from an art historian perspective, which will be an important contribution to our community.
Also in the BBC program are Shelley Jackson, renowned for her "Skin" project, where a story she has written is conveyed through words tattooed on people around the world; artist Sandra Ann Vita Minchin discusses how mortality & legacy inform her own use of tattooing in her performance art -- and how she plans to grow skin through her DNA and tattoo it as an extension of her body project; and Sion Smith, editor of Skin Deep, and Trent Aitken-Smith, editor of Tattoo Master, weigh in on tattoo culture today.
Again, this is a fantastic listen and worth the time. Check it here.
Tomorrow, September 25th, is the US release of "Forever: The New Tattoo" published by Gestalten. The 240-page hardcover distinguishes itself from the many tattoo titles on shelves today with an finely curated group of international artists who are creating innovative works and pushing boundaries with new patterns, approaches and even new ways of thinking about what makes a strong, timeless tattoo.
Insightful profiles on these tattooists are written by Nick Schonberger, one of the writers behind the excellent "Homeward Bound: The Life and Times of Hori Smoku Sailor Jerry."
In an interview with Cool Hunting, Nick talks about some of the artists he interviewed for the new book and their stories:
[...] Curly from Oxford, he tattooed with Alex Binnie--a lot of the people have connections to Into You in London: Alex, Curly, Duncan X and Thomas Hooper. Curly talks about hating tattoos, hating mainstream tattoos, having hated tattoos before he met Alex Binnie and realized there could be something "art directed." Curly started moving into tribal tattoos and became one of the pioneers of what you could call "neo-tribal"--although his style is a little different than that. On a mainstream level, that's the easiest analogy. Amanda Wachob is a tattooer who approached tattooing as a way to begin to think about painting and how to combined those two things together. She paints after her consultations with clients and those consultations form the basis of the tattoos that she ends up doing. Robert Ryan is a musician and his music is all about pattern and his tattoos are all about pattern.Another highlight of the book is the foreword by art historian Dr. Matt Lodder, who always offers an interesting perspective on tattoo culture, from ancient tribal rites to contemporary trends. This past weekend, Matt moderated a discussion on tattooing during the book release event in Berlin. There, Alex Binnie and Duncan X discussed their tattoo experiences and ideology.
For a glimpse into that discussion, check this video (below) in which Alex & Duncan "talk about the current mass appeal of tattoos, its uniqueness as an art form and the "holy trinity" of tattooing styles."
You can pre-order "Forever: The New Tattoo" on Amazon.

Behind the Needle 3 from Papercut Pictures on Vimeo.
Filmed at the London Tattoo Convention this past year, Zeitgeist Magazine's "Behind the Needle" series, produced by Alice Snape, features noted artists talking about their art and inspiration, and musing on the state of tattooing, often while tattooing clients at the show.
In this fourth installment, Alice & Papercut Pictures interviewed Zele of Zagreb Tattoo, Jason Donahue of Idle Hand, and Alex Binnie of IntoYou. These artists, from very different backgrounds, discuss their individual tattoo styles and also address the good and bad of the "tattoo fad." [Zele remarks, "Tattooing has become a victim of its own popularity."]
In all of the interviews, the passion for the craft is most evident. I particularly enjoyed hearing Alex Binnie's thoughts on tattooing being a beautiful private contract between the client and tattooist -- an art that is outside the exploitative nature of the gallery fine art system. No fad can say that.
Watch the full video above or catch it on Zeitgeist. Also check the previous episodes:
Based on the flood of emails we've been getting over this exhibit, it seems London's art circles are amped over the upcoming Pens and Needles show at the London Miles Gallery, opening Friday, February 25th.
Pens and Needles will feature original paintings, stencils and photographs from over 20 highly respected tattoo artists, including Shawn Barber, Claudia Sabe, Nick Baxter, Nick Colella, Alex Binnie, Mike Davis, Xam, Daniel Albrigo, Holy Fox, Jeff Gogue, Shad, Jondix, Jee Sayalero, Lea Nahon, among many others.
More information on the show can be found here. I particularly like this part of the exhibit description:
Attitudes towards tattoo art and tattooed individuals continue to evolve for the better. Nowadays, it's getting harder and harder to draw a distinction between fine art and the best of modern tattooing. Doesn't this then make tattooed individuals the new cultural ambassadors of a truly new and distinctive 'modern art'?Just call me Cultural Ambassador Kakoulas!
The opening will also feature live music and live tattooing in their pop-up tattoo parlour. The party runs from from 7 to 11pm. And all are welcome to show off their own body of art.
A fierce artistic energy emanates from London's illustrious/infamous Into You Tattoo. Owner Alex Binnie opened Into You in 1993, and since that time, the studio has garnered worldwide praise for innovative tattoo work from all members of its tattoo family. While tattoos in a variety of genres are created, Into You has a particular reputation for blackwork, and one of the artists renowned in this style is Tomas Tomas.
When asked about his life in tattoo, Tomas says that the search for his very first was disappointing after visiting many studios and feeling uninspired by the work he saw. He explains that he had his own vision for tattooing and spent the past 18 years unearthing and sharpening the style he yearned for as a child.
After some years, thanks to the rare tattoo publications available at the time, he discovered the work of various artists at Into You and connected with it. He became an avid customer there, spending hundreds of hours getting tattooed entirely from head to toe by the several resident artists. So it was only natural he found his way on the other side of the needle in these walls.
At Into You, Tomas hit upon a version of tribal blackwork that he says is his "attempt to reveal a new tribal graphic vocabulary in tune with the technological world." While still committed to the ancestral essence of this type of tattooing, he looks toward the future in London. He explains:
Further exploration of this practice revealed that, often, tattoos in tribal societies were poetic visual representations of the environments and cultures in which people lived at the time. It was also a celebration of the mysteries of life. I then realized, rather unconsciously, these same desires and values still fuel many to get tattooed today worldwide.
Tomas further discusses his tattoo philosophy, references and new works on his blog. Check it for tattoo inspiration and a great read.

Running Java Jersey with JDO 3.0 on Google App Engine
Why such a horrendous title?
Ha! The title I was gonna use originally was sort of a "spoiler" that gave away endings. :) So, there you go.
I've been struggling with JDO 3.0 upgrade for some time. I use Google App Engine as a main platform for most of my (Web application) development. It is PaaS, and it provides lots of benefits in terms of significant reduction in the overall development and operations cost. (Just to be clear, the "hardware" cost of PaaS is generally comparable to that of IaaS such as Amazon Web Services or RackSpace, etc. The real cost saving comes from the "ops", pat in my view.) This cost reduction comes at a price, however. Google App Engine (GAE) is a platform currently being developed (with new features being added constantly), and on the flipside, there are currently a lot of limitations. If GAE does not provide certain functionality (which you could have relatively easily accomplished if you had a full control over the platform), then in many cases, you have to live with it. There may be a workaround. Then again, there may not be. For example, you cannot create a thread on GAE, and if you are a Java programmer, you'll realize that this is really a fundamental limitation. You cannot access file system, which will be another big surprise if you are using GAE for the first time.
Google App Engine now supports SQL-based database. But, when I started using GAE a couple of years ago, the only choice I had was Google's proprietary data storage called, aptly, Data Store (or, Big Table, which is the underlying technology of Data Store). Google Data Store is a No-SQL database. There is some learning curve. I use JDO interface on top of Data Store, which provides at least two benefits for me. The first is portability. If we have to move/migrate the data into SQL based database in the future, using an abstraction layer such as JDO API instead of using the low level Data Store API directly has a big benefit. The second reason is JDO nicely maps to the object layer (whereas JPA, for instance, is closer to SQL-based RDBM), which is a big plus for me. Google Data Store is an object-oriented database (unlike table-based RDBM). In theory, at least conceptually, you can map a Java object to the database entity very easily. There is no need for ORM, etc. (BTW, in case you are not familiar with Google Data Store, it does not allow joins. What?, you might ask. Yes. No joins! This, which some might consider a deal breaker, is more than compensated by this object-orientedness, at least for me.)
In any case, I had been using JDO API for some time, whose version was 2.0, on Google App Engine. As I mentioned, these are all "under-construction" type of technologies. GAE supports certain features of JDO, and it does not, and cannot, support certain other features. Some are due to the limitations of the underlying technology (e.g., no joins!). The newest version of JDO is 3.0. One feature I was looking forward to in JDO 3.0 was "unowned one-to-many relationship". Although I said GAE Data Store was OO-based, due to so many limitations, the benefit was very limited. This "unowned one-to-many relationship" could potentially open up so many possibilities for me.
The GAE DataNucleus enhancer/plugin for JDO 3.0 has been around for a few months as "beta". I tried it a few times, and I just couldn't make it work on my development environment. I thought, maybe because it was beta? I was getting so many different kinds of errors, which I wasn't willing to spend time debugging.
A few days ago, the new version of GAE SDK, version 1.7.1, was released, which included JDO 3.0 support, among other things. The first thing I did when I installed the new SDK was trying out the JDO 3.0 features. Here's the doc: https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/datastore/jdo/overview-dn2
The doc is somewhat outdated (as of this writing). I spent much time trying to debug the ant task and Datanucleus enhancer tools using various docs, but I just couldn't make it work. As it turned out, the GAE Eclipse plugin already had JDO3 support (as of today, at least). So, this was cool. After resolving some issues, I was finally getting ready to try out JDO 3.0, only to get stuck with one last problem. This one appeared to be "un-solvable".
The DataNucleus library (which implements JDO, etc.) uses an external library called ASM. In case you are not familiar with this, it is a Java bytecode manipulation tool. It is often used, among other things, to support "annotations" in Java code to do post-compilation tasks. The new DataNucleus plugin relies on asm version 4.0. The problem was, I was using Java Jersey library for JAX-RS, and the current version of Jersey relies on asm version 3.1. ASM does not provide backward compatibility. These two versions of asm were in conflict, and there appeared to be no way to resolve this. Note that asm is a very "low level" library, which is needed both at compile time and run time. I cannot deploy only one because neither JDO3.0 nor Jersey can be used with a different version of asm which it was originally compiled against. Clearly, building these libraries from source (with a lot of dependencies on their own) was out of the question, even utilizing Maven, etc. Deploying both versions of asm at the same time would not work either unless you could implement some custom class loader which intelligently picks the "proper" version of asm depending on context. Again, I couldn't come up with a solution that can solve this jar version conflict problem.
I was totally stuck!
I spent many hours googling. Often it is hard to figure out what you are looking for, until you know what you are looking for. It seemed hopeless. But, I inched ahead, and finally found a solution! (Well, you call it a workaround. I call it a solution. :)) BTW, version conflict is a fact of life in software development (until we have a "real" solution). There was an expression like "DLL Hell" in old times. Android now insists that we cannot use shared libraries at all (which I think is like throwing a baby with the bathwater, however), as a "solution" to this problem. Unfortunately, this is the way it is (at least, for now). In many cases, (good) developers tend to be conscious of backward compatibility (and, even "forward compatibility", if you know what I mean), and minor version differences do not cause major problems in general. The problem with ASM is that its incompatibility appears to be intentional, for whatever reason. Java bycode format changes from time to time (every so slightly). A particular version of ASM works with a particular format and no others. That is it. The libraries complied against a particular version of asm are not compatible with the libraries built with a different version of asm, due to this artificial dichotomy, although in practice the bytecode format difference is so minor that the chances of ending up with different bytecodes for any particular class or library are very small. (BTW, all newer versions of "java" can read and run all Java bytecodes in any then-current or older formats. That's how we are supposed to write software. BACKWARD-COMPATIBLE! Or, you are supposed to use some internal versioning scheme, etc. Merely using different file names, such as asm-3.1 vs asm-4.0, without real versioning/compatibility considerations is really an anti-pattern.)
Anyways, did I say I found a solution?
It's called "JarJar". You can rebuild an existing jar file with different source package or class names. This is an amazing tool, which I wasn't aware of until today. (Search for "Java repackaging", etc.) So, here's the solution. Rename the asm package name in one library (with one asm version) so that they are no longer in conflict with another library with a different version of asm. I chose to repackage Jersey. As it turns out, only one jar file in the Jersey distribution has a dependency on asm.
java -jar jarjar-1.3.jar find class jersey-server-1.12.jar asm-3.1.jar
.../AnnotationScannerListener$AnnotatedClassVisitor -> org/objectweb/asm/ClassVisitor .../AnnotationScannerListener$AnnotatedClassVisitor -> org/objectweb/asm/AnnotationVisitor .../AnnotationScannerListener$AnnotatedClassVisitor -> org/objectweb/asm/FieldVisitor .../AnnotationScannerListener$AnnotatedClassVisitor -> org/objectweb/asm/Attribute .../AnnotationScannerListener$AnnotatedClassVisitor -> org/objectweb/asm/MethodVisitor
So, here's what I did:
java -jar jarjar-1.3.jar process testrules.txt asm-3.1.jar asm-3.1r.jar
java -jar jarjar-1.3.jar process testrules.txt jersey-server-1.12.jar jersey-server-1.12r.jar
where the testrules file include this one line:
rule org.objectweb.asm.** org.objectweb.asm3.@1
That's it.
I deployed the repacked Jersey jar files including the modified asm-3.1 along with asm-4.0 and JDO DataNucleus library to Google App Engine, and Voila! Now I have an app that can support "unowned one-to-many relationships"! Tested and verified!
So, the original title I was thinking of using for this post was
"Jar Jar (Binks) to the Rescue!"
(Corny? Yes. :) BTW, JarJar uses/depends on ASM, Ironic? Yes. :))

How about some good news heading into the weekend Sooner fans! As you can tell from the picture above, Coach Stoops just confirmed this afternoon that stud freshman DT Jordan Phillipshas finally been cleared by the NCAA.

Looking at the Memphis Grizzlies pay roll this next year, I really find it hard to believe that they can offer Marc Gasol a competitive contract.
Currently they are at $37,363,810 with out Zach Randolph's mistake of a contract which is a 4 year $71 million dollar contract. Total that will put Memphis at $55,113,810. If they sign Marc Gasol at the rumored estimate of 5 yrs 60 million they would have a total salary $67,113,810... I don't see that happening because that would take them out of getting that shared revenue check that most small market teams use as their life blood.
With that said I hope GSW over pays for DeAndre Jordan... What they Didn't lear their lesson with Corey Maggette?
any thoughts?
You never know, maybe Marc Gasol can just take over the mortgage on his brothers house

hurrdurr breaking news derrrr iTunes update ! herrrrr
Let's make fun of a Mac blog site for you know, blogging about Mac stuff. Right....
I'm surprised so many people still use iTunes. I became fed up with it last year when I realized that Spotify could find and start playing my local music faster than iTunes, and then, not only that, it could even find and play songs that weren't on my machine faster than iTunes could for songs that were!
Spotify doesn't even come close to what iTunes offers in terms of library organization and flexible Metadata-based editing, sorting and presentation of your music files. Especially if your collection also contains a lot of classical music. Even though it's far from perfect, iTunes is still the best that's out there.
It available for PC version as well.
Apple has issued a version update for iTunes which addresses a number of bugs:The update is available through OS X's Software Update.
I like how this is news. As if it's more likely we'd open MacRumors than open iTunes and have it tell us to update....
My iTunes runs on an HTPC machine. I check it every couple of days, so yes, I found out about the update from MacRumors. Still, probably more of a sidebar article, given they never actually posted a story on the out of order tv seasons. Regardless, I'm glad they posted it. Not everyone constantly checks iTunes or Apple Software Update... :)

Former Dover music teacher facing child porn charge dies
No cause of death was given. Robertson formerly lived in Greenland and Eliot, Maine, but his obituary said he was a resident of Barrington.
The former St. Thomas Aquinas music teacher was arrested in January on child pornography charges, the result of a federal investigation into a foreign movie production company that sold DVDs and streaming videos of young boys engaged in sexually explicit acts.
The business sold its illegal movies and photos over the web, had a shipping facility in New York State, and maintained a customer database, according to investigators.
The customer information eventually led Greenland police and U.S. Postal Inspectors on Jan. 31 to Robertson's home, then in Greenland.
Robertson was charged by Greenland police with seven counts of possession of child sexual abuse images after a search warrant was executed at his home.
He was a music teacher from 2002 to 2008 at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Dover.
In 2009, Robertson was acquitted of misdemeanor charges alleging he groped the genitals of a former student while swimming out behind his house.
He was prosecuted at two separate trials in Strafford County. After the verdict, Robertson filed to have his record annulled and applied for a teaching position as recently as last summer in Massachusetts, according to prosecutors.
In his obituary, Robertson is described as a loving husband, son, and brother. He was born in Portsmouth, raised in Greenland and graduated from Portsmouth High School. He earned a bachelor's degree in agronomy form the University of New Hampshire and took graduate courses toward a master's in music education.
According to the obituary, he taught music in several communities, including Barrington, Laconia, Allenstown, Epsom an Dover, and was an excellent musician (percussionist) and had a wonderful tenor voice. He was active in several musical groups.
Raised in Greenland, Robertson graduated Portsmouth High School, and went on to teach music in several communities, including Barrington, Laconia, Dover, Allenstown, and Epsom.
He also had his own landscaping business, which was primarily a summer occupation.

I have come to the conclusion that the blogger comment counter works similarly to our Electoral College.
I have decided that each blog is allocated x-number of comment numbers. For our discussion let's say there are only 435 comment numbers allowed. As a new post is made a comment number is taken from an older post and is used on a newer one. Similar to how our electoral college redistributes the electoral votes after a census. The actual comments never disappear, but the comment counter slowly counts down until it reaches zero.
I believe this theory on the disappearance of the blogger counter numbers holds more water than my old theory – thieving gnomes.

Striking Kitchen Ceiling

Customer Testimonial
See the pictures of my kitchen that I used your tiles in. What a transformation!!! The product was very very easy to use and very easy to cut and install. I just traced out the old tiles onto the new and took my scissors and cut to fit. The whole kitchen took me about 2 hours. I had looked into doing a tin ceiling but the cost was about 4 times as much as these tiles. That's not really cost effective for a single home owner. My realtor is a good friend of mine and thinks changing out the tiles was a great idea and a beautiful option. All my neighbors have drop ceilings as well and I'm sure will be ordering some for their houses. I have an office that I'm remodeling and need to keep the drop ceiling so I'll be placing another order shortly. Thanks again for helping me with the kitchen and giving me an option other than having the expense of dry walling my ceiling for $4000. Thanks again!

Customer Testimonial
My project turned out wonderfully. I installed the medallion tiles and for the perimeter I used a textured wall paper right over the old primed drop ceiling tiles. Like I said, it looks really great. In fact, company that's never seen our ceiling before thought the ceiling was a plaster cast that was actually original to the home (we live in an older house). I left the old existing drop ceiling tiles in place along the outside edge. Where possible, I removed metal brackets that were not part of the ceiling support structure. Then to smooth things out, I used joint compound where metal brackets of the grid touched the old tiles. This way when I put up the wall paper it would not be so obvious where I still had metal brackets. When I feathered out the joint compound between brackets and tiles to my satisfaction, I used a high quality sealer primer (Bin 1-2-3) over all of that. The wall paper was a heavier paper, designed to go over paneling or cracked plaster walls and hide what was beneath it. I don't remember the brand off hand, but I bought that at Menards. For some of my seams, I had to touch things up with a little white caulk, which blended in very nicely. If I look hard or if the lighting is just so, I can see where I have metal brackets behind the wall paper, but it really isn't too noticeable for sure. It might just appear to be a ceiling joist behind plaster to someone who doesn't know - if they can see it at all.

It may be derived from the "three yards and a cloud of dust" attitude dominating football decades ago, but the "Wedge" play is a vital part of the run-oriented Double Wing offense.
Why the Double Wing 'Wedge' Play Works
It is difficult for opposing teams to defend. Two tight ends book end the offensive line. This creates a tightly formed seven-man blocking front. The fullback is closely aligned behind the quarterback in a three-point stance. This makes it difficult for defenders to see the quarterback hand him the ball when running the play. To beat a Double Wing opponent, the defense must stop the wedge play.
Origin of the 'Wedge' Play
The play is derived from the "Flying Wedge," the outlawed arm-interlocking kickoff return formation made illegal over a century ago. Instead of the banned interlocking arms, the offensive line steps inward in concert to form a tightly formed 'V' formation, with the center in lead and the head of each lineman aligning to the hip of the line mate to his inside.
Much like a rugby scrum, the mass of humanity plows forward to allow the fullback to follow neatly behind until an opening occurs and POW! It's off to the end zone. Not every wedge play results in an 80-yard touchdown scamper. Double Wing teams are grateful if they are churning out three, four yards at a time. There are other plays run by the offense, but it is the Wedge, which defines the essence of a true Double Wing team.
The Defensive Answer
The Cougar formation is specifically designed to stop the Wedge play. The formation can be adjusted to fit any defensive system. Its strength is to take away the wedge play by basically imploding the wedge-blocking concept from the snap of the ball.
The scheme is borrowed from the tilt-nose defense. Instead of one player aligned at a 45-degree angle in the gap to one side of the center, Cougar adds a second tilt-nose defensive lineman to the other side of the snapper. The two players are in a four-point stance, and get as close to the line of scrimmage as possible. When the ball is snapped, the two defenders drive off the ball and into the shoulders of the center with their inside shoulders.
Causing Offensive Line Problems
The center now faces a double team, and the charging defenders also make it difficult for the offensive guards to step into proper position for the wedge block. The angle of the tilt-nosed linemen creates a pile-up with the three interior offensive linemen.
The fullback has no other alternative than to stop and attempt to bounce the play outside. The hesitation/change of direction allows for other defenders to be in position to make the tackle.

Well.....what do you say? Possibly the craziest freakiest game I've ever seen. Were we lucky, or unlucky? Who the hell knows, all I know is that we have a crucial W. Now, who ya gonna vote for? Everyone knows the drill by now.
3 points - Calvin Johnson. He fumbled, he also dropped a pass that led to a pick. But, he also had over 300 yards and was a pure and utter beast. It seemed like after those mistakes he just went into focus and dominated. 2nd most yards in a game by a receiver...EVER. How do you not give him the points.
2 points - Matthew Stafford. I came this close to giving Staff the top spot. He was the leader, he had the stats, and he made the gutsy play to win us the game. His passes at times were just phenomenal. He made a few mistakes as well, but he did a fantastic job, especially considering the adversity during most of the game.
1 point - DeAndre Levy. This last point was hard. I couldn't really think of anyone who didn't play particularly well. I could've given it to Bush, but he had a bad fumble. The pressure was solid at times, but not crazy. I think I'll give it to Levy because I think he did a good job in coverage and in a way, represents my respect for the defence as a whole who kept us in the game during the first three quarters.
Leaderboard after seven weeks:
1. Stafford (200)
2. Levy (183)
3. Bush (180)
4. Johnson (171)
5. Suh (130)
6. Bell (77)
7. Ansah (68)
8. Fauria (56)
9. Delmas (50)
10. Martin (38)
Top vote getters from week 7: Johnson (72, first time one player received every 3 point vote), Stafford (32), Suh (12), Waddle (11), Bell (4).

(02/01/14) - The city of Flint is getting a helping hand from the Genesee County Road Commission.
For the first time, the road commission will make sure Dort Highway and Corunna Road are plowed and salted. The Michigan Department of Transportation offered to maintain those state highways in the city after the big snow storm in January.
MDOT contacted Genesee County on Friday. "We were asked by the Michigan Department of Transportation if we could take over the snow removal responsibilities inside the city of Flint on the state trunk lines for the next four to five days. And we told them we would be able to do that," said John Daly, of the Genesee County Road Commission.
MDOT will reimburse the Genesee County Road Commission for working on M-54 and M-21. The move will make it a little easier for Flint road crews to maintain other city streets.
