One of the main characters on Hostages (9 p.m., CBS/Ch. 2) has to die. Because, at this point, there's less tension in this new series than there is in the sitcom "How I Met Your Mother."
And that's a problem with a show that's supposed to be a thriller.

"Hostages" is about a plot to assassinate the president of the United States (James Naughton). A team led by a rogue FBI agent (Dylan McDermott) takes the family of the doctor (Toni Collette) who's about to operate on the president hostage and orders her to kill the commander in chief during the surgery.
The good doctor give the president a blood thinner, forcing the surgery to be postponed. And now there are all sorts of complications.
Which could be exciting. Except that, up to and including tonight's third episode, it's not. There's no real feeling of tension. No real feeling of danger.
These characters have to be in some sort of danger for this to work. And, to date, it sure hasn't felt that way.
That's a real problem for a show that's supposed to be a thriller.
Frankly, I'm about ready to give up on "Hostages" altogether.

Search continues for couple after boy was beaten
PLAISTOW - Helen Nicholson says she was worried about her 3-year-old grandson's safety long before his mother and her boyfriend took off after he was allegedly severely injured and burned.
"I'm just very, very happy that he's alive," Nicholson said Tuesday as the search for Jessica Linscott and Roland Dow expanded into Massachusetts.
Linscott, 23, and Dow, 27, both of 197 Main St. in Plaistow, remained on the run Tuesday night after police issued warrants for their arrest. The two are facing assault and child endangerment and neglect charges after Linscott's son, James Nicholson, suffered a severe head injury, a visual impairment, bruises over much of his body, and second- and third-degree burns, police said.
He remains hospitalized at Children's Hospital at Dartmouth in Lebanon, but Nicholson said he is now out of the intensive care unit and continues to improve.
"I talked to him and he said, 'Hi Nana. I love you Nana,'" she said.
Plaistow police began investigating the injuries after Linscott and Dow brought James to Exeter Hospital on Nov. 14. The hospital staff became concerned about the extent of the injuries and contacted police.
While she was interviewed by police after James was rushed to Children's Hospital at Dartmouth, Linscott wasn't immediately arrested as police were just beginning their investigation. While investigating the injuries, which police Lt. William Baldwin said appeared to have occurred over the course of two to three days, police obtained arrest warrants and searched the couple's Plaistow apartment.
Authorities from several agencies have been searching for the pair, but so far they haven't turned up. Police said they don't believe the couple has a car and that someone is likely helping them elude capture.
"I don't think they're going to find them," said Helen Nicholson, of Melrose, Mass.
Nicholson said her son, who passed away when James was just 3 months old, is the boy's father.
She said Linscott and Dow have been dating for about a year and that James was often left with her or Linscott's mother.
Nicholson said she became concerned about Dow after her grandson told her over the summer that he was "hitting him in the head and spanking him."
Nicholson said she told Linscott that there would be "an investigation" if she brought him back to their Plaistow apartment.
Nicholson described James as a fun-loving 3-year-old boy who's smart, loves to run around and play with his cars.
"He's a very typical happy-go-lucky child," she said. "He's just an awesome little boy."
The Rockingham County Attorney's Office has scheduled a press conference for today at noon to provide an update on the case.
"I can't comment on the evidence, but anytime a child is alleged to be a victim we all take it seriously," said Rockingham County Attorney James Reams.
He urged Linscott and Dow to surrender and asked the public to contact Plaistow police if they have information.

Google is the most successful social video brand of 2012. The technology giant's video campaigns attracted more shares this year than any other advertiser, according to new data released today by Unruly — the award-winning platform for social video advertising.
Thanks to the global success of such campaigns as Project Glass: One Day, Google increased the number of shares it attracted in 2012 by 196.8% from the previous year, beating Nike to the top spot by 421,359 shares.
This year sees a number of newcomers to the top 10, with TNT Benelux, Coca-Cola, Abercrombie & Fitch, Samsung and P&G replacing last year's front-runners Budweiser, Evian, T-Mobile, Activision and Kia, showing that competition in social video advertising is heating up. Coca-Cola made the biggest leap, growing by 485.4% from last year. The top 10 brands accounted for a mammoth 35 million video shares.
Unruly co-founder Sarah Wood said: "The Unruly 2012 Social Video Share Index is the definitive chart for measuring a commercial brand's social video success as it's based purely on sharing activity rather than views and subjective criteria. This is the content that people are choosing to share. Savvy brands are no longer creating content to merely watch their YouTube view counter tick up, they're measuring who's sharing the content, what they're saying, and how it's impacting brand metrics."
The Unruly 2012 Social Video Share Index includes all shares, tracked regardless of content release date, between January 1, 2012 and November 22, 2012. The 2011 comparison statistics were also from January 1 to November 22.
The 2012 Index, based on data from the Unruly Viral Video Chart, ranks videos by the number of shares they attract across Twitter, Facebook and the blogosphere as opposed to the number of views. As such, it is a measure of the brand's viral success ranking branded content by the volume of active pass-on rather than the more passive metric of video consumption.
The list shows the extent to which some brands have already recognized video's potential for brand advocacy and are successfully leveraging the potential of the social web to increase sales. The top 20 does not include movie or TV trailers.

Bike Pedals Overview
Pedals can generally be broken down into 4 categories. The best type of pedal will depend on the individual and what kind of riding you do. The table below will give you an overview of your options.
Standard/Platform Pedals
- Attach to any bike.
- Can be used with any footwear
- Suitable for beginners because they allow you to quickly place your foot on the ground if needed.
- Ideal for BMX riders because the sport encourages you to take your feet on and off the bike to perform tricks.
Mountain Click-in Pedals
- Best way of securing your feet to the bike.
- Clicking into the bike allows you to pull up as well as push down through your pedal stroke. The result of this extra control is that you can produce more power through each pedal rotation making you fast and more efficient.
- Mountain bike click-in pedals come in two styles. The first style is similar to road bike pedals in that the pedal consists of the clip device only. The other style of mountain bike pedals come with a base around the clip, this means that these pedals can be used as both a platform pedal and click-in pedal, offering the convenience of platform pedals and the performance of click in pedals.
Road Click-in Pedals
- Road/Racer click-in pedals are small as they consist of the clip device only. Bike shoes are required with these pedals which have cleats that attach to the pedals, similar to snow skis.
- Click-in pedals can be intimidating to people who have never used them before. However, the advantages of using click in pedals make it worth while over coming your concerns. Once you have used click in pedals for a period of time clicking in and out of them becomes second nature.
- Highly recommended if you are riding a Road/Racer or regularly.
Toe-Clip Pedals
- Main advantage of using Toe-clip pedals is that they help you to locate your foot in to the correct position on the pedal, which is placing the ball of your foot over the centre of the pedal.
- Quickly becoming old fashion. Prior to click-in pedals, toe-clip pedals were the best way of securing your feet to the bike.
- Cheap way of securing your feet to the bike because toeclips can be used with any shoe and can be attached to most platform pedals.
Why Pay More?
There are a large number of pedal manufactures which all have their own pedal and cleat designs. All of these designs work on similar principles and the choice normally comes down to personal preference.
Spending more on your pedals will provide you with 3 main advantages. Better pedals will be lighter, have a smoother action and superior entry and release. Better pedals are usually more adjustable in terms of entry and release tensions.

4 short films by international female directors!
August, 30, Venezia, Sala Darsena – Fashion label Miu Miu is not only famous for a great taste and style. Nope. They also support great femal artists. Miu Miu's acclaimed series of short films, the Women's Tales, just screened together for the first time as part of the Venice Film Festival's Giornate degli Autori – Venice Days. We have the pleasure to present all 4 short films to you. Enjoy!
The short films, by four leading international female directors, show how the Miu Miu short film platform has managed to combine credible filmmaking themes and a strong feminine point of view with fashion.
The four films in the series are: The Powder Room, directed by Zoe Cassavetes; Muta, directed by Lucrecia Martel; The Woman Dress, directed by Giada Colagrande and It's Getting Late, directed by Massy Tadjedin.
Some of the leading stars of contemporary cinema including Gemma Arterton, Patricia, Clarkson, Aubrey Plaza, Rinko Kikuchi and Maya Sansa lead the all-female casts, and soundtracks are scored by some of music's finest new talents including Au Revoir Simone and Zola Jesus. The diverse films, set in LA, London, a witches' cavern and a mysterious ship, explore feminine rituals, codes and gestures, each touching on the theme of being a woman. Each director applies their distinctive point of view through their particular filmic style, with elements of melodrama, surrealism and film noir reflecting the world of Miu Miu in multifarious dimensions.
Highlights from the Miu Miu collections take leading roles too – sunglasses, accessories, and key looks from the ready-to-wear collections are all beautifully showcased – but also perform as important plot devices, central to the narratives.
Following the wide success of the first four films, Miu Miu will continue to commission further Women's Tales films into the future, details to be released soon. All four films from the first chapter of the project can be viewed on a dedicated area of the Miu Miu site, alongside exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage, now.
The Powder Room is the first in a series of short films The Miu Miu Women's Tales directed by distinctive female filmmakers with different intellectual background, which explore the femininity by the cinema. Zoe Cassavetes is the filmmaker of The Powder Room, an enchanting and dramatic short film set in London's Claridges hotel. As its name suggests, the piece takes us into an ultra-feminine environment where gestures between women are traded in a ritual of opulent beauty. In this world Cassavetes uses the romantic codes of the powder room to mirror the beauty and luxury of the Miu Miu universe.
"I love the idea of a powder room, the ritual which takes place within them is very important for women," explains Cassavetes. "There's something special about preparing yourself, a moment before the action takes place. I love the sense of intimacy. It's a place away from men, where you can check out other women, and re-glamorize yourself ready to face the world again." Cassavetes brings her eye for capturing the essence of femininity to the film, which layers multiple close ups of subtle glances and abstract details to create a mysterious narrative mosaic. "The story is about women and their private moments", says Cassavetes, "so it's allowed to be free and dreamy… the dreamy part was the most fun. And the glamour."
Audrey Marnay stars as a captivating femme fatale who plays provocatively within the private and reflective environment of the powder room. When other glamorous girls played by models Caroline de Maigret, Line Gost and Sophie Vlaming enter, the powerful unspoken codes of the powder room are unfold within a sensual dream-like tale.
The second in a series of short films The Miu Miu Women's Tales exploring the feminine love affair with Miu Miu is a contemporary film noir with a mysterious transformation at its heart. MUTA, meaning both "mute" and "transformation", is a beautiful and cryptic portrayal of an all female world of symbolism, hidden meaning and intrigue.
Directed by Argentinean Lucrecia Martel, one of the most acclaimed filmmakers in contemporary world cinema, the surreal narrative is set onboard a ship anchored in a tropical sea. As dawn lifts and electrics buzz and flicker to life an elegant crew of beautiful and exquisitely attired female creatures emerge insect-like from portals, their faces obscured from view.
The beings sashay in long-sleeved dresses in coral, black and mink, sequined with birds and flora. The 40s silhouettes recalling Hollywood's legendary femme fatales Jane Greer and Lauren Bacall are cowl-backed, collared or drop-waisted, demurely cut below the knee. Cross-clasped purses in chestnut fur or suede come to life expectantly. Beneath their tortoiseshell shades false lashes flutter, and a new private language is revealed, a morse-code of clicks and vibrations. Entombed aboard this luxury modernist boat, the female chrysalides prepare for their strange metamorphosis.
Martel's singular film is a mesmerizing personal reflection on the transformative power of femininity at the heart of the Miu Miu obsession.
The Woman Dress is the third in a series of short films – The Miu Miu Women's Tales – by distinctive female filmmakers exploring women's love affair with Miu Miu. The film stars Italian actress Maya Sansa and is set to a haunting soundtrack, written especially for the film by electronic pop trio Au Revoir Simone.
Following The Powder Room – Zoe Cassavetes' dreamy story of opulence and glamour, and MUTA – Lucrecia Martel's film noir filled with mutant fashion divas – The Woman Dress is again set in an all female world of glamour and desire. But this time fashion obsession is taken to its most extreme conclusion, in a metaphysical tale of transcendence and ritual.
A coven of elegant witches attends a bubbling cauldron, their shadowy cavern hung with the ghosts of dresses. Maya Sansa is undressed and led to a bath, and her finger pricked to draw blood. The witches – played by Heather D'Angelo, Erika Forster and Annie Hart of Au Revoir Simone – circle, chanting in strange tongues. As the smoke clears we see Maya Sansa has made the ultimate sacrifice, transforming herself into the object of her desire – a beautiful blood red dress.
The film, featuring key dresses from Miu Miu, draws on a surreal cinematic language, with its red velvet curtain, reverse-speak and dreamlike mise-en-scène. "My mother was a feminist, I grew up in an environment of women and I make movies about women" – says Giada Colagrande – "so when I was approached to make this film, all about femininity, it was heaven for me. Cinema is a powerful way to bring fashion to another dimension: you can take a single image, like a dress, and create a whole world around it."
#04 IT'S GETTING LATE DIRECTED BY MASSY TADJEDIN - Premiered in Venice
In the translucent LA dusk we discover four women living very different lives – a high-flying professional in her elegant glass office, a mother bathing her daughter, a chic blogger with her laptop and a film editor working with old movie clips in a screening room. The camera follows each as they wind down their working days, their four stories weaving together as each prepares for their evening.
It's Getting Late is the fourth film in a series of short films, The Miu Miu Women's Tales, by leading female directors. Each film explores the feminine love affair with Miu Miu through the lens of their diverse sensibilities. It's Getting Late is an entrancing study of the ritual of getting ready, shot by Iranian-American screenwriter and director, Massy Tadjedin, with a stellar international cast including Gemma Arterton, Patricia Clarkson, Rinko Kikuchi and Aubrey Plaza, culminating in a gripping cameo performance by rising songstress, Zola Jesus.
Tadjedin, whose directorial debut starred Keira Knightley and Eva Mendes, was inspired by the common passage of physical and spiritual transformation when moving between the spheres of day and night. "Miu Miu is a distinctly feminine brand and one distinctively feminine ritual we all still make time for is getting ready. We make our faces, our suits, our selves just a little more ready for wherever it is we're going. Fashion is never just the clothes. It's our mood, our excitement for something, our expectations, our attitudes, our outlooks. Managing those is often what getting ready is all about and that's what our short tries to capture." Massy Tadjedin
The four women quietly take part in their private acts of preparation, delicately slipping a silk blouse from its tissue, stepping into high heels, applying make up, zipping up a dress. But the transformation is also psychological, as they take stock of the day and mentally prepare for the evening ahead. A fifth woman, Zola Jesus, is the calm counterpoint, sitting quietly in her changing room at a famous club, ironically the only woman not changing at all. She will be the thread that binds the women together, when in the final scenes they arrive one by one, all by different means, at her electrifying performance – suggesting perhaps they have more in common than we might have believed.
On the guest list:
Zoe Cassavetes (in Miu Miu), Lucrecia Martel (in Miu Miu), Giada Colagrande (in Miu Miu), Massy Tadjedin (in Prada), Naomi Watts (in Prada), Liev Schreiber (in Prada), Willem Dafoe (in Prada), Maya Sansa (in Miu Miu), Florence Welch (in Miu Miu), Agnes Varda, Luciana Castellina, Stefano Tonchi, Susanne Bier, Jesper Winge Leisner, Andrea Occhipinti, Enzo D'Alò, Maricla Affatato, Marco Alemanno, Beppe Fiorello, Dorotea Mercuri (in Prada), Franceso Vezzoli, Shala Monroque, Giorgio Gosetti, Liliana Cavani, Lita Stantic, Marina Cicogna, Mira Nair, Rina Zavagni, Lorenzo Mattotti, Germano Celant, Roberto Barzanti, Ryan T and more…

It's no secret the Lehigh Valley Velodrome has a pull for the Reinhart family, but a recent sunny afternoon at the world-class facility included a surprise for both Pam and Timmy Reinhart, mother and son.
Timmy, a senior at Emmaus High, was working -- he helps coach in the Velodrome's Bicyle Racing League.
He didn't expect to see Pam riding one of her daughter Nicole's training bikes.
Not sure how to get into her clipless shoes, Pam yelled to Timmy from outside the oval track. Finally, she walked the bike onto the track to get his attention.

The window of a northeast Jackson home remained boarded Thursday afternoon, after police say two armed men broke in while the homeowners slept Wednesday morning.
A number of items were taken, including the victim's car. It was used as a getaway vehicle.
Neighbors say gunshots were fired inside the St. Andrews Drive home, which is at the Jackson Country Club.
"This was not James Bond 007, super top secret the way that they got in. These people found an easy way to get into the house and they did," said Jackson Police Precinct 4 Commander James McGowan to a group of citizens at a Thursday evening COPS meeting at Redeemer Church.
Crime is rare at the country club but several home invasions have been reported in northeast Jackson in the last several months. Some crooks have even used a doggie door to get inside a home.
"There were some people that were climbing in through bathroom windows and kitchen windows, and it was not the same suspects. I can tell you that. I can tell you, we have a good idea who those suspects were," explained McGowan to the group.
David Swann sells guns and owns Swann's Gun and Repair in north Jackson. He says people are arming themselves with guns and pepper spray.
Swann says a gun buying rush usually only lasts a couple of weeks when home burglaries are reported.
"It's just been picking up here for a couple of months now. So, it's not going away this time," said Swann.
At the COPS meeting, residents were able to ask city departments questions and learn if their concerns are being addressed, including crime. Organizers say it creates a sense of community.
"You don't feel isolated. All to often when someone is a victim of crime or there is an issue that is negative in their community, they feel like they are the only person that's being effected," said Precinct 4 COPS Moderator Bill Wilson.
McGowan told residents at the community meeting to take basic precautions to protect their family and property. He says to make sure your doors are locked, turn on and use your alarm system, turn on your lights and don't leave valuables out in plain sight.
A COPS meeting is held once a month in each police precinct in the city.

The Perfect Jeans for Your Plus-Size Figure
Where to Buy
Not sure where to find the best styles? Here's a brief list of a few retailers who carry jeans for the full-figured woman.
Levi's (www.levisstore.com)
Levi's interactive tool JeanFinder helps you select the best jeans for you in a few easy steps. Plus-size jeans are available in sizes 14-28, and you can find trendier versions in the Juniors Plus section, up to a size 24.
Newport News (www.newport-news.com)
This site's Jeanology tool helps you find different types of jeans based on trends or size (14W to 26W) and what's on sale. There's even a fit guide, a color palette (over 23 colors to chose from), and a denim dictionary that explains each wash and finish offered in detail.
Avenue (www.avenue.com)
Over 30 pairs of moderately priced jeans are available in sizes 14-32. Choose from several different cuts: trousers, bootcut, capri, straight, and classic. Shop by category, collection and extended sizes (28-32). Returns are fast and simple if you'd prefer to shop from home.
If you've been searching for premium jeans to fit your curvaceous figure, look no further. Finally, chic designer jeans are available for you -- in all different styles.Svoboda
Fed up with the lack of stylish apparel for curvaceous women, Jessica Svoboda started her very own plus-size premium apparel line, Svoboda (pictured on the previous page). "I couldn't find any jeans that were stylish and fit well," says Jessica. "We offer styles that are popular for the misses' size, but modified for the plus-size body."
Svoboda's jeans are generally mid-curved rise, and have a European fitted cut, which means they're cut lower in the front and higher in the back to fit generously across your backside. The waistbands are thicker and higher (2 to 4 inches) to minimize gaping in the waist area and offer extra stability for your tummy. Another great feature? Extra large pockets, which balance out a thicker body.
Shop by size (14-28) and height class (petite, average, tall). Available at www.svobodastyle.com and www.nordstrom.com, as well as select Lord & Taylor stores nationwide.Seven7
A pricier alternative to their Venezia brand, Seven7 is Lane Bryant's version of couture jeans.
Designed for the ultimate sexy fit, Seven7 features flattering denim capris, gauchos, and trousers that sit lower along the waist with a longer inseam (perfect for wearing with heels). All jeans are made with premium stretch denim, so they'll fit nicely on all plus-size frames. They're available in an array of washes and finishes, and are faded and distressed by hand. The Seven7 logo is embroidered or stitched onto all back pockets, and the legs are fitted and flared slightly below the knee for a more shapely appearance.
Visit the Denim Rules guide online, which breaks down the difference between Lane Bryant's three denim lines, Venezia, Venezia Supreme, and Seven7. Available at www.lanebryant.com and Lane Bryant stores nationwide.

This isn't about what you think will happen and not even what you want to happen. Obviously there are other alternatives but I was curious if these were your only two choices for how things play out at the BoG the next two days, which of the two would you pick?
Option A: The Maloofs cannot convince a majority of owners to let them file for relocation and the NBA and the Maloofs figure a way to resolve the pre-development issues; however, that's it, the status quo is kept and the ESC project moves along. The Maloofs keep ownership, the ESC project moves along with the pre-development costs issues dealt with but that's it. The only assurances we get from the Maloofs are a few interviews that they are "100% behind the project" but no special contract being signed guaranting the rest of the money, merely the league thinks the plan is fair and it will move along so long as everyone gets along. Please note, under this option we are assuming there are no assurances either way as to whether the Maloofs will hold up this project further down the road.
Option B: Again, the Maloofs cannot convince a majority of owners to let them file for relocation but the league has also called into question the Maloofs and their fiability as NBA franchise owners and the Maloofs begin to threaten an anti-trust suit against the league, arguing that the league's rules prohibiting relocation are an unlawful restrain on trade under Article 1 of the Sherman Act and also make a few other claims such as the Commissioner's Office has breached it's fiduciary duty with the Maloofs in its conduct and communications with the City and AEG. In the process, the current ESC plan is completely off schedule and all parties back out until the issue between the NBA and the Maloofs are resolved. Please note, under this option we are assuming there is no smoking gun either way, it's a toss up for all we know.
So, as a Kings fan, which option do you pick if you are stuck having to pick only between these two options?

This past Saturday night's Strikeforce was a pretty good way to round out a solid week of MMA. Nate Marquardt turned in a surefire entry to knockout of the year, Keith Jardine showed what being tough really looks like, and Jason High subbed Nate Moore in a mere 26 seconds of the first round. Wait a minute. Something isn't right here. Oh yeah. We didn't actually get to see Jason High's lightning quick guillotine until late yesterday, and at the time of this interview (Monday afternoon), Jason had not even seen his fight. We didn't even get to hear about it on the broadcast. So, what was going on there? In an effort to get to the bottom of this mystery, Jason recently did an interview with TapouT Radio to give his thoughts on the fight that nobody talked about.
*Note: Interviewer is either my co-host, Evan Shoman of TapouT Radio, or myself. When I don't conduct these interviews by myself, I just put "Interviewer" to eliminate having to bounce back and forth between three different names.
Interviewer: Is there a back story as to why your fight was not show or even discussed on the Strikeforce broadcast?
Jason High: Um, I don't know. I guess I must have sh*t in the wrong sunroof or something. I really don't know.
Interviewer: Have you asked around to see if you could get the video? Who do you even go to in a situation like this?
Jason High: My manager is looking into it right now. I'm sure they recorded it, so I don't really know what the delay is about. It's not a huge video, so I'm sure it will be up in the next week. Everybody has been asking me about it, but I'm in the same situation you guys are in.
Interviewer: Do you feel that Twitter has helped you or hurt you, career-wise?
Jason High: I love Twitter. I don't know if it's done either, but it's a nice outlet to talk to the fans. I don't think it's necessarily helped or hurt. If I had to lean towards one, I'd say it's helped me.
Interviewer: Have you thought to maybe tweet to Dana White directly?
Jason High: I saw somebody tweet to Dana and ask if he'd seen the card, and he said he didn't even watch it, so that pretty much tells you all you need to know about how Dana feels about Strikeforce. No, I haven't tweeted him.
Interviewer: Do you kind of feel like the red headed step child here? You've got Lorenz Larkin falling to his knees begging for bonuses and you with a dark match that seems to be relegated to stay that way, so you've got to be wondering what's going on, right?
Jason High: I don't think anybody knows what's going on. It's hard to say. There's a lot of good fighters in Strikeforce and they have good fights, but it's just not clicking with somebody. I'm clueless, just like everybody else.
Interviewer: Is the overall situation at Strikeforce frustrating, and if so, do you have your management actively working to get you into the UFC?
Jason High: I like Strikeforce, and honestly, I just want to stay busy. I'm hoping that they get some of their issues resolved because I like the organization. All the people are cool, so I hope they can resolve whatever is going on, and do what they say they're going to do.
Interviewer: In your opinion, what direction would you like to see Strikeforce go?
Jason High: If they're going to keep it around, I'd like to see more promotion, more shows, all the fighters staying busier, and bonus money.
Interviewer: What did you think of UFC 148, especially considering all the marketing and promotion that went into it.?
Jason High: It looked really good on paper, but then it kind of sucked. I actually fell asleep during that card. I don't remember which fight it was, but I was up for the main event, though. Sometimes that happens. It's not really anybody's fault. When fighters are really well matched, sometimes you're going to get decisions, and people don't always like that.

Jeanne Meadows,Spelman College Model U.N.,International Studies Major Requirements
The international studies major at Spelman is rigorous and focused. The structural integrity is maintained by an oversight committee composed of the major adviser, the study abroad adviser, chairs of the departments with core courses in the major, and the chair of world languages and literature. The charge of the committee is to ensure that major courses meet stated goals and objectives.
Students are required to select courses in a specific issue area or country area, designated as a "track." Track selection ensures that students acquire a specialized core of knowledge. The first two courses in the major are interdisciplinary.
Students should begin the major in the sophomore year. Courses The major consists of 40 credit hours - 20 hours of core courses designed to introduce the concepts and organizing frameworks and 20 hours of elective courses designed to provide competence in a specific geographic or issue area.
The elective courses must all be at the 300 level or above. Courses must be selected from two departments at minimum.
These courses must be chosen from the following issue or geographic area:
International Development, Cultural Studies, Latin America, Africa, or Asia.
Economics 241 and Economics 242, Principles of Macroeconomics and Principles of Microeconomics must be taken as a pre-requisite to Economics 324.
Students who take Economics 241 only should take Economics 424. Economics 241 is therefore a cognate course for the major. The course may be used to satisfy the Social Science requirement for the College core.
Students interested in admission to upper tier graduate or professional schools in International Studies should take both Economics 241 and Economics 242.
The International Studies major should successfully complete at least two courses in a foreign language at or above the 300 level.
One semester of Study Abroad is required. It is suggested that International Studies majors go abroad during the first semester of the junior year. Students will receive major credit for two electives taken during Study Abroad. International students may be exempt from the Study Abroad requirement.
A grade of C or better is required for the successful completion of major courses.

Last weekend, Rebecca Knop opened the doors on Lovers Lane Olive Oil Company in the former Consignment Galleries space. The store features 40 flavors of extra virgin olive oils and balsamic vinegars from Modena, Italy on tap, in flavors such as Persian lime and spicy harissa extra virgin olive oil, and dark chocolate and espresso balsamic vinegars. Go in for a tasting and walk out with a kitchen essential. This is the second location for the Grapevine Olive Oil Company. Within the same building, Baked Spice specializes in hard to find chili peppers, sugars, salts, as well as cooking and baking accessories.
5 comments on "Lovers Lane Olive Oil Opens Doors"
I wish them well. Speaking from experience, that's a terrible area for retail of almost any sort let alone something so specialized.
Thanks Twinwillow! We hope to be there just as long as Consignment Gallery was (Over 10 years!) as well as Beading Dreams and Mountain Hideout. We hope to be an asset to the area offering Gourmet Foods as well as gifts and home accents.
They'll probably do well, but parking can be a nightmare. There should be enough walking traffic to be okay, but many times I just drive on, when I can't get a spot quickly.
Parking during lunch is usually the only time I cannot find parking; other than that, we do have designated parking for our store, 4 spots right in front! If you can't find a spot, call the store at 214 352 5263 and we will move one of our cars for you.
I went today. Super store.

LAS VEGAS -- The Boston Marathon bombings last week are a tragic reminder of the damage enemies of the United States can cause on the nation's soil.
An industry considered a soft target for terrorism in Las Vegas is the growing number of data centers in the valley. The data centers are considered soft targets because the loss of life would most likely be on a smaller scale.
Cobalt Data Centers in the northwest valley opened for business just three months ago and boasts customers from five states already.
The data center uses high-tech security features to restrict access, such as using an approved person's iris to enter into a secured area.
Cobalt is a security stronghold, from computerized firewall protection against cyberattacks to protection of the actual building.
The safety protocols are intense – cameras and man-traps are just two – and include thorough employee background checks and other secret measures.
Clark County Commission Chair Steve Sisolak agreed the data center's security is sophisticated, but it is still a potential target.
"There is a concern that data center is a soft target," he said. "I mean, any place that has the potential for compromising information that's collected or one of our resources is a potential soft target."
He said the data centers need homeland security.
"You need both sides," Sisolak said. "You need the intelligence side in order to make the other side effective. If you don't have the intelligence side ... when you have the intelligence, you can prevent a lot of the second things from happening."

Statement from the Carl Junction Police Department:
ON 2-20-2013, a white male who said he worked for a local electric company approached a residence in Carl Junction and told the resident that they were doing some "testing" in the area and noticed that she had some "hot" wires at her residence. That subject left and a short time later a crew of workers came and told her they would check out the problem. One of the workers went into the attic to check out the "problem", afterwards one of the crew told her that he could take care of the problem for $3,300. She made a call to the electrical company and they advised to call the Carl Junction Police Department. The subjects left before officer arrival. The subject parked around the corner from the residence and no vehicle description was obtained.
Legitimate home repair people do not sell their services door to door. If you are approached, before talking to the people contact your local enforcement authorities to check the people out. Never let an unsolicited sales person of any type in your home without verifying their businesses with your local authorities.

Performs three major routines: 1) significantly facilitates the task of optimizing the grid dimensions of the raster that divides digital landscape images into contiguous quadrats with optimal spatial resolution of foreground objects by avoiding their over- or under-sampling of points; 2) produces and saves an indexed image of the original landscape overlaid with the optimized grid-lattice that is annotation to indicate each quadrat's location; and 3) produces individual image files of each quadrat sample saved with column-row location that are now ready for plot-based spatial pattern analysis of the landscape domain. Input images can be 8-bit grayscale or 24-bit RGB color in tiff, bmp, jpg or png format. Grid specifications, quadrat size in pixels, and percentage of the landscape area represented by each quadrat are automatically displayed in the GUI as the grid optimization procedure is interactively performed, and are also provided as a saved, output txt table.

After ranking in the Monta Ellis level (#40) at the start of the season, Stephen Curry has risen all the way to near-superstar level on ESPN's season-ending top-30 players. After failing to be named a top-12 player in the western conference alone, he now nearly makes the top-12 NBA total (and, if you ignore positions, sits as the first man out for All-NBA). His spot is decently above the two men who stole his all-star spot (Aldridge @ #25, Randolph @ #29), and also above illustrious PGs Rose (#23), Rondo (#22), Wall (#21), and Williams (#17), which, by my account, has him as ESPN's #4 PG, behind CP3, Westbrook, and Parker. Pointless in a sense, but good to see both the national recognition, and some affirmation that it's not our biases that think Steph Curry is joining the NBA's elite.

I can't live without bacon!
Without pigs, life would be nothing. Without pork, there is no point in life. Without bacon... This comment is too sad. Can I get a tissue? Please?
You can never have too much bacon. If you were drowing in a vat of bacon in a container made of bacon on a planet made of bacon in a facility made of bacon that produces bacon, you still wouldn't have enough bacon.More comments about Bacon
Bacon... Bacon is a wonderful gift from heaven above. When He dropped pigs from the sky, we all bowed down to praise him for the magnificent gift he gave. Pork, ribs, ham, bacon...
Only my deepest, darkest nightmares confront me with no bacon.
The best death would be death by bacon.

The 32nd Feast of Santa Rosalia – a ten-day street festival through the heart of Bensonhurst – begins this Thursday. It runs down 18th Avenue, starting at 68th Street and running down to 75th Street. 6:00-10:00pm every night. Here are a few quick notes before you go:
- Santa Rosalia: The patron saint of Palermo.
- Lucy's: The patron saint of pork sausage.
- Zeppole: An Italian pastry with an inverse relationship between cost and calories. If you're like me and trying to shed a pound or forty, I recommend sharing an order with a friend or two What the hell, it's only ten days.

|Look up fisting, handballing, brachioproctic insertion, brachiovaginal insertion, or fist-fucking in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Fisting, handballing, fist-fucking, brachiovaginal, or brachioproctic insertion[1] is a sexual activity that involves inserting a hand into the vagina or rectum. Once insertion is complete, the fingers are either clenched into a fist or kept straight. Fisting may be performed with or without a partner.
The "Silent Duck", also called "Duck-Billing", is the technique often used in which the person engaging in hand insertion shapes the hand to resemble a duck's beak. Typically, fisting does not involve forcing the clenched fist into the vagina or rectum; this is a practice called "punching". Instead, all five fingers are kept straight and held as close together as possible (forming the beak-like "duck"), then slowly inserted into a well lubricated vagina or rectum.[1]
In more vigorous forms of fisting, such as "punching" or "punchfisting", a fully clenched fist may be inserted and withdrawn slowly.
Fistees who are more experienced may take two fists (double-fisting). In the case of double-fisting, pleasure is derived more from the stretching of the anus or vagina than from the thrusting (in-and-out) movement of hands.[1]
Fisting can cause laceration or perforation of the vagina, perineum, rectum, and/or colon, resulting in serious injury[2] and even death.[3][4][5][6] In general, sexual activities that cause air to enter the vagina can lead to a fatal air embolism, and the risk is probably even higher during pregnancy.[7]
Anal fisting carries risks of colorectal perforation; participants are advised to use latex gloves and lubricant,[8] and designate a safeword, the utterance of which will call an immediate halt to the activity. The practice, along with the insertion of hard objects into the anus, has been significantly related to the traumatization of the rectal mucosa in increasing the likelihood of infection, including Hepatitis B.[9]

Barack Obama should watch this video on the Falklands before knifing Britain in the back (again)
As readers of this blog will know, the Obama administration has a long track record of knifing Britain in the back over the Falklands issue. It has consistently sided with Cristina Kirchner's calls for negotiations between London and Buenos Aires over the sovereignty of the Falklands, and will not recognise the right to self-determination of the Falkland Islanders. The Obama White House and State Department have refused to condemn the Kirchner regime's campaign of intimidation against the Falklands, a self-governing British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic, including the boarding of fishing vessels bearing the Falklands flag, and threats to mount a naval blockade.
The U.S. administration has also declined to recognise the upcoming Falklands referendum, to be held on March 10 and 11. As Secretary of State John Kerry reiterated last week in a press conference in London outside the Foreign Office:
SECRETARY KERRY: Well, let me be very clear about our position with respect to the Falklands, which I believe is clear. First of all, I'm not going to comment, nor is the President, on a referendum that has yet to take place and hasn't taken place.
Our position on the Falklands has not changed. The United States recognizes de facto UK administration of the islands, but takes no position on the question of the parties' sovereignty claims thereto. And we support cooperation between UK and Argentina on practical matters, and we continue to urge a peaceful resolution of that critical issue. And I think that's exactly what our position has been, that's what it remains, and we look forward to the future.
This is not a position of neutrality. It is an endorsement of the Argentine government's belief that the future of the Falkland Islanders should be a matter of negotiation, not self-determination. Secretary Kerry and President Obama would do well to watch this video produced by the Heritage Foundation in Washington (where I direct the Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom), which offers a useful history lesson about the Falkland Islands, and why Washington should respect the right of the Falkland Islanders to decide their own future, without intimidation and harassment from Buenos Aires. They might also learn something about the meaning of the Special Relationship.

Dr. Mel Chen, an assistant professor in the Department of Gender and Womens' Studies at UC- Berkley, spoke on campus on Jan. 19. Håer lecture "Masks and the Line Between Security and Disability" dealt with the importance and effects of masks in society.
The inspiration to study masks came from a personal experience in which Chen herself had to wear one.
"It was brought on the urge to study reigning western hierarchies by which this stuff gets radicalized, conceptualized and made non-disabled or disabled," Chen said.
Chen used photos to present her analysis. The presentation opened with an image featuring a surgical mask and ended with images of the movie "Dexter", displaying the variety of her research.
"Masks can be seen as good things, they can be seen as bad things. Sometimes whether they are a threat or malevolent has to do with the issue of race, nation and place," Chen said.
The presentation closed with a brief question and answer session that sparked a variety of conversation topics, such as the use of make-up as a mask.
