Make this a perfect Valentine's Day: Queen's University Professors
Buying the perfect present
Valentine's 2012: Traditional vs. Memorable. If you are looking for a Valentine's gift that makes a lasting impression, School of Business professor John Pliniussen has some advice: skip the roses, French perfume, Danish chocolate, or earrings from Tiffany & Co unless of course you want to be "traditional."
According to Dr. Pliniussen, research shows gifts that makes memories (such as a trip to a spa) make people happier than receiving a product. "Instead of buying chocolates, you should make the chocolates together. Instead of buying flowers, take a trip to a spa. The chocolates will be eaten and the flowers will fade. It's so easy to buy a gift card but the research is clear -- experiences are what truly make you happy," says Dr. Pliniussen. "Receiving a gift provides a moment of happiness, but experiences and memories last forever."
But no matter what, do not forget to do something special for your loved ones .
Dr. Pliniussen is only available for phone interviews.
iLove you (smartphones and romance)
Got love? There's an app for that! Media and film professor and digital trends analyst Sidneyeve Matrix can speak to innovations in digital romance---how we're hooking up, breaking off, and stepping out on our romantic partners through Facebook, Twitter, texting, and online dating sites.
Dr. Matrix is an expert in understanding the impact of social trends in digital and mobile media use. She can also discuss how digital intimacy, family bonds, and virtual friendships grow (and wither) via newer technologies including social gaming, geolocational check-ins, and even smartphone apps.
Love for Sale: Chocolate and the Consumerism of St. Valentine's Day
Although the roots of St. Valentine's Day date back to the Middle Ages, we are indebted to the Victorians for many of our most popular features of the celebration, including greeting cards, chocolate and other confectionary in heart-shaped boxes.
Less about love and more about money, the material history of the holiday, including the packaging and marketing of St. Valentine's Day gifts and accessories, corresponds with social, cultural, economic and technological changes of the past two centuries. Heather Evans is available to speak about the history of chocolate, confectionary, and greeting cards, and their roles in the development of this sweet, modern holiday.
Professor Evans is only available for phone interviews.
How to use Jane Austen to brush up your romance skills
Attention men – do you need help finding a date? Queen's University English professor Robert Morrison says single males looking to attract women should spend a little more time reading Jane Austen novels and less time in the gym.
"Men today can still learn a great deal by reading Jane Austen and what she has to say on love, relationships, the battle of the sexes, hope, promiscuity, courtship, and happiness. Austen wrote some of the most powerful love stories in Western literature, and though 200 years have passed since her novels were published, they still have a remarkable ability to speak to the modern world. Her six novels continue to exert a profound influence on our culture.
Robert Morrison is Queen's National Scholar and an expert in Romanticism and early nineteenth-century literature. His edition of Austen's final novel, Persuasion, was recently published by Harvard University Press: http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?recid=31301.

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Business owners on Gay Street in Downtown Knoxville were caught off guard Saturday when they found out the road and sidewalks in front of their doors were going to be closed.
City officials say a business on Gay Street had acquired the proper permits to have a crane deliver materials to repair the roof. They also say the closure of more than just the northbound lane in the 400 block of Gay Street was not communicated to them, or the business owners.
David Ewan owns Downtown Wine and Spirits and co-owns Sutrees Tavern with his wife. He says the doors at those two businesses had to remain closed Saturday, resulting in thousands of dollars lost.
City of Knoxville officials say they are deeply concerned about the miscommunication that resulted in downtown closures Saturday. They say permits for the project will be reviewed on Monday and they will explore ways to make sure this never happens again.
Ewan says the loss of business on a day when weather brings lots of customers downtown is devastating.

UPDATE: During their session on Tuesday, Memphis City Council passed the municipal schools-county schools three-year-old merger lawsuit settlement.
(from earlier)
Memphis City Council attorney Alan Wade has urged council members to pass a resolution officially withdrawing the city's participation in the three-year-old city-county school merger lawsuit.Wade told the council with all six municipalities having worked out deals with the Shelby County Schools board of education on student assignments and school buildings, the interest of city taxpayers in this case are now protected.There are some experiences in life you just won't miss after they're gone. Like chasing grim-faced, tight-lipped lawyers in the wind, rain, snow and stifling heat around the federal building, year after year, in hopes of securing one crumb of information on the progress in the school merger lawsuit.No, I won't miss that because in our business there's always another story and somebody else to chase.Wade is he silver-haired sage legal eagle who never seems to be wrong with his advice to his employers on city council. So, when council consigliori publicly pronounces the protracted city-county school merger lawsuit is over, then he knows of what he speaks."We believe the objectives of the lawsuit have been concluded and I would strongly recommend that you approve us withdrawing and dismissing the case," Wade said.Just last month, the ever cautious Wade had asked a council committee to hold off passing a similar resolution of withdrawal proposed by an anxious Councilman Lee Harris. Then Wade pointed out only five of the six municipalities had worked out deals on student assignments and school buildings in negotiating with the SCS board.Since that time, Germantown has agreed to terms with the board in being given liens on five of the eight buildings they wanted for their school district. In representing the city's interest Wade has worked in conjunction with Shelby County Commission outside attorneys since legal proceedings began three years ago.Wade said although federal Judge Samuel "Hardy" Mays, Jr., didn't give the plaintiffs all they wanted he did try to give both sides leeway in mediating the issues until he'd be forced to step in to keep the merger on track."He tried to do that, Wade said. "But, I think he realized that people were at such polar opposites that he had to make some decisions."With the angry rhetoric, the various suits, appeals, motions and millions of dollars spent, especially by the municipalities, critics would point to all the litigation as accomplishing nothing at all except to make some law firms richer. "I don't think so," Wade said. "I think, one, you have a unified system. You have individual municipal schools. It's not completely the same. All the students are not there. The school board made a conscious decision, as we proved in the case, that you can't give up all these kids without hurting yourself financially."I think it's the best of all worlds," he added. "I mean it could have been more divisive and a lot worse. So, I think it's a good result."And remember, Wade just never seems to be wrong.

The A's and Angels just started the final game of their 4-game set a little while ago at the O.Co.
But I would just like to say a few words about what may have an impact on any moves the team i.e. Billy Beane may make at the trade deadline coming up on Wednesday.
A lot of talk has centered around the middle infield and in particular upgrading at second base.
I'm saying Eric Sogard, who plays three-quarters of the time there as a lefty hitting against right-handed starters, is probably the most undervalued player on the roster.
Sogard is very much a plus defender at second base, check out the two plays he made in the eighth inning Saturday against the Angels. He also has more than held his on at the plate helped by the way manager Bob Melvin is using him.
If you don't believe me, go to baseballreference.com and check out the WAR (Wins Above Replacement) ratings for American League position players.
In overall WAR, Sogard with his play through 104 games this season, ranks third among A's at No. 46 overall in the league behind only 3B Josh Donaldson (No. 9 overall) and CF Coco Crisp (No. 44).
Sogard has a ranking of 2.0 wins over the average league replacement-level player while Donaldson is in the top 10 with a ranking of 4.1 wins above replacement while Crisp is at 2.1.
Helping Sogard's ranking is his defense, just as it hurts shortstop Jed Lowrie. Check out dWAR, the defensive WAR ratings, while you're at it. Sogard with a 1.1 ranks No. 15 overall in the AL among position players and is one of the top three or four-ranked second basemen.
Bottom line, Billy Beane would be very unlikely to find an upgrade to Sogard on the trade market. There's a better chance he can find more help in the pitching ranks, although the A's are already very strong in that department.

Jeff: It has been reported that BJ Raji failed a drug test at the NFL Combine. What did he test positive for? We do not know. The assumption in the article and logical assumption for now is that he tested positive for marijuana. Raji had already tested positive for marijuana once while at Boston College.
Is this a big story?
This is certainly noteworthy and newsworthy but will testing positive for marijuana drastically effect Raji's draft stock or how BC is perceived? I don't think so. Marijuana is just too common in pro sports and in college for this to be a huge issue for Raji's NFL future.

Rafael Marquez will be suspended two additional games, in addition to Thursday's New York Red Bulls match against the Los Angeles Galaxy, and fined a total of $2,250 for the role he played in the post-match fight on Sunday. Marquez started the incident when he threw a ball at Landon Donovan. At the time, Marquez was shown a red card, along with Galaxy midfielder Juninho. Galaxy forward Adam Cristman and Red Bulls midfielder Teemu Tainio were also fined undisclosed amounts.
MLS Executive Vice President Nelson Rodriguez oversees the Disciplinary Committee and speaks on its behalf had this to say: "After thorough examination of the incident that followed the Oct. 30 game between the New York Red Bulls and the LA Galaxy, the Disciplinary Committee strongly believed Rafa Marquez must be punished above the red card he was issued for throwing the ball after the final whistle because of the following actions: attempting to head butt Adam Cristman, attempting to punch Adam Cristman; striking Cristman, and simulating that he had been struck in the face."
The suspension means that even if the Red Bulls advance beyond Thursday's match, Marquez would have to miss the remainder of the playoffs. If the Red Bulls are eliminated, he would miss the next two games for which he is eligible.

Nishi to AAA
The Twins mercifully ended Nishi's 2012 MLB campaign by optioning him to Rochester this morning. This leaves Hughes cemented as the utility infielder/bench bat. It also may be a sign that the Twins are rethinking the Plouffe in LF idea. It opens a potential spot for someone. At the moment, I'm speculating that this could be Parmalee's break, as he could move into a 1B/DH role with Justin. Doumit then shifts to a C/1B/DH/RF type role. Either that, or it opens a spot for Burroughs.

I obviously cannot comment on Kyron or the ongoing investigation. However, on behave of Kyron's family we would like to thank you. The incredible support we have received is overwhelming. To the numerous agencies, search and rescue teams and the community there are no words to express the gratitude we feel. You have worked tirelessly on Kyron's behalf and continue you to do so. At this point the most important thing is to get his picture out there. We encourage everyone if you would like to help this is what you can do. Print out his flyer, put it on the counter of every business you go into. Kyron needs to be seen. Above all do not give up hope, as we certainly never will. He is out there and we are going to find him and bring him home safe where he belongs.

Alliances & Joint Ventures
Carrera in pact with Picanol to make shuttle-less looms
Our Bureau
Mr Vivek Jacob (right) Chief Executive Officer, Carrera Holdings Inc, Italy, addressing the media in Chennai on Saturday along with Mr M.S. Mathivanan, Chairman, Organising Committee of the First International Textile Educational Conference. K.V. Srinivasan
Chennai , July 2
CARRERA Holdings Inc of Italy, the second largest jeans manufacturer in the world, has entered into a 50:50 joint venture with Picanol, the Belgian textile machinery major, to manufacture shuttle-less looms, branded Vinci, in Maharashtra.
Mr Vivek Jacob, CEO, Carrera Holdings Inc, said the company was investing about $250 million in India in various textile sectors. It was investing $30 million in a garment-processing unit and $50 million in the textile cluster in Sholapur.
The company planned to set up a futures commodity exchange for yarn and grey fabric. This mechanism would help reduce the risks faced by textile companies due to volatile raw material prices. The exchange would be ready by February 2006, he said.
Carrera would also be entering the retail sector and open a chain of 50 outlets in two years, Mr Jacob said.
In Tamil Nadu, the company planned to develop assembly units for textile engineering at Coimbatore.
Earlier, delivering the keynote address at a textile conference, Mr Jacob highlighted the need for students who fit into businesses to understand the limitations of resources in businesses. He said the big challenges ahead for the textile industry wereconsolidation and the recession in the US and Europe.
At present, there are only 10 companies that retail apparel and these retailers deal only with big suppliers. The question then asked is whether there is room for small and medium businesses. The answer, Mr Jacob said, is in textile clusters where there can be informal exchange of knowledge and resources.
He urged Indian companies to follow the example of Italy, which was the second largest exporter of textiles after China, and export high-value items. Mr Jacob said Indian companies were making the mistake of trying to churn out commodity products instead of high-fashion items.
Mr M.S. Mathivanan, Chairman, SSM School of Textile and National President, Textile Association of India, said the textile industry required a large number of trained human resource. At present, every year, just 2,000 students graduated in textile engineering from the 53 engineering colleges in India. Textile education in the country had to be modernised, he said.

Blazerfan's post got me thinking about who are the most valuable individual Panther contributors of all time. I'm sure this has already been done many times, but... What else am I to do mid-June??? This is not just players, but anyone who has made the team great. How would your list differ?
1. Steve Smith
Smitty is the only Panther I can remember who could not only take over a game, but a whole season! In 2005 and 2006 if teams stopped Smitty, then they stopped the whole team. But despite this, in '05, he still pretty much by himself took the team all the way to the NFC Championship. He was an integral part of the '03 Superbowl run. He made the pro-bowl as a rookie, and has been an all-pro almost every year since.
2. John Fox
Gotta give Foxy some love. Since the teams inception nothing much changed until he came. He took a 1-15 team, that had only one playoff appearance in its existence, and led it to 3 playoff appearances, 2 NFC Championships and a Superbowl. He is the 2nd most tenured coach currently in the NFC. And with the exception of '06 has had success every year the team wasn't overcome by injuries.
Davis is the closest thing I can think of to Smith's '05 performance. In that much of the teams success in '03 was due to him carrying it with consistent running. One difference was that when the running game was shutdown, Jake and company did a good job of moving the ball through the air. However after Davis went down to injury the following year, the team's running game took 4 years to recover.
Pep has the ability to be a Hall of Fame DE. The only thing stopping him is whether or not he has the determination.
5. Sam Mills
We all know the story... #51 is the only retired Panther's number. Even in his absence he has done much for the team.
I cannot comment much because I am still bitter from the Arizona game. But Jake deserves to be up here somewhere. We would not have came so close to a Superbowl win without him.
7. Jerry Richardson
In a city abused by the George Shins and Bob Johnsons of Charlotte Pro Sports, Jerry deserves some credit for creating a great organization.
8. Muhsin Muhammed
The Panthers best all-time receiver until Smith came along. Also one of the best blocking receivers in the league. I don't think it a coincidence that the Panthers running game never recovered until he returned. A skill often over looked.
Ok, maybe this one is a little premature. But what he did last year deserves some props! In his first year as a starter he amassed 1500 yards, 18 TDs and 5.5 yard average! And all while splitting time with JStew! Even if he is traded tomorrow his records will still stand.

It would be nice if someone owning a DE422 card could confirm that this

Both teams shop at ethnic stores. Team Vietnam grabs watermelon and other things. Josie brags, "We got everything -- those lists were so precise."
Over in Koreatown, Team Loser doesn't have as much luck. We see that they will be doing braised pork with kimchi and sticky rice as well as a jasmine tea panna cotta with tapioca. Dudes? Traditional kimchi takes a really long time to make. Like, weeks, sometimes. This is already not a good idea. Also, Bravo slapped the menu graphic right over a shot of lychee cases. Nice and subtle. Marisa tells us that "everything was a bit chaotic" in the Korean grocery store. They scream at each other across store aisles, scramble around looking for stuff, and grapple at other stuff. Marisa screams something unintelligible around something she has stuffed in her mouth. Is she sampling? Because in some stores, sampling is stealing. A grocery worker helps Otto by loading a case of lychees on the bottom of the shopping cart. They get rung up and realize they are over budget and have to take something back. Something is taken out of the bags, and Elia decides they are fine.
Outside, they load up the car and Otto says, "I think we got a case of lychees for free." I want to point out that this is captioned and we hear it, but Otto seems to be off-camera when he delivers this line. Marisa tells us -- just so there's no doubt here -- "As Otto was closing the door, he said something like, 'We got a whole case of lychees for free.' And I was thinking to myself, 'Did I hear this properly? If that is what he said, then this isn't fair.'" This right here is where this scandal is bullshit. Otto tells everyone there about the free lychees. Any one of them could have turned right around and taken the lychees back. None of them do, so, in my opinion, they are all culpable in this. Otto is no more to blame than the rest of his team, he just happens to be the one who said it aloud. What we don't know is if he came to the realization at the checkout counter that the lychees weren't rung up and still left with them. If so, then he's in the wrong. However, he might have only realized the lychees weren't rung up when he unloaded them from the bottom of the carts and it dawned on him that they could have been overlooked.
Now, according to Marisa's blog, she and Elia discussed the situation AT THE STORE with the producers, but the fucking producers wanted them to have the conversation on camera -- um, the cameras were still there, right Producers? -- and made them leave with the purloined lychees in order to have more drama unfold elsewhere. That's manipulation. That's bullshit. That really pisses me off. That and the fact that last year's reunion special was filmed after the finale make me not believe anything I see on this show. And I used to think this show -- along with Project Runway -- didn't have to sink to manufactured drama. I've lost my innocence.

5 Reasons We Will Be Blamed for the Polar Vortex
2014 has already proved to be a good year for LGBT people. So, why aren't there any nutty religious zealots blaming us for the ominous weather that has been paralyzing most of the country? Is Pat Robertson too cold to comment? Is the Westboro Baptist Church on vacation?
Since it seems like no one has gotten around to smiting gays for the Polar Vortex, allow us to make a few predictions. Here are five reasons the LGBT community may have caused this icy mess.
1. We Can Be Boy Scouts
The Boy Scouts of America began officially allowing openly gay youth January 1, and it seemed like there wasn't much backlash until this Polar Vortex showed up in protest. Mother Nature must be a fan of Texas governor (and former Eagle Scout) Rick Perry, who bellowed the loudest in protest of this new policy. It'll be a sunny 70 degrees in Austin this weekend.

Assuming we beat Seton Hall on Wednesday, next Saturday's tilt against WVU should be quite the game for a couple reasons.
- UConn will have likely/hopefully/potentially (~60% chance) lost to Pitt earlier in the day and UL will have the chance to lock up its first BE regular season championship. Normally I think of a regular season championship as a completely meaningless achievement in college bball. But winning the BE this year for Louisville would be completely different. Mostly because the selection committee will likely be doling out two automatic #1 seeds to the two best BE teams and winning the conference outright is a pretty good way to enter that conversation.
- Another huge implication then is ULs BE tournament draw as the #1 seed. The #1 seed has a HUGE advantage this year with Dominic James' injury. How great would it be to i) get a 2-day bye ii) take on Cincy/WVU most likely iii) then get to play Marq/Nova instead of Pitt/UConn in the semis to advance to the finals!?!
Scenarios for BE champ. It seems pretty straightforward to me (I think.. and this assumes Pitt beats Marquette at home and assuming we beat SHU at home):
Pitt beats UConn and we beat WVU - UL champs
Pitt beats UConn and we lose to WVU - Pitt champs (winner of three way mini-conference)
UConn beats Pitt and UL/WVU no longer matters - UConn champs (would win any tie-breaker with UL)
Taken together: A #1 seed in the NCAA tourney is much more likely than I originally thought (need to win the conference and advance to the finals of BE tourney)... and WAY more likely than after the ND fiasco two weeks ago.


text: Not sure if anybody has talked about this yet, but I just noticed earlier today on MLBTR that Glaus wanted a corner infield position. I'm sure that he would come quite cheap w/incentives. He has a horrible 2009 because of injury but had a very productive 2008. Has anybody heard anything about the Braves looking at him? With LaRoche apparently wanting 10.5 million per year for 3 years it seems that we are certainly out of the running for his services.

DJ Dangermouse
The Grey Album
Self Released
t took the simultaneous detonation of three micro-cultural supernovas to birth DJ Dangermouse's The Grey Album, an epic mash-up of The Beatles' White Album and Jay-Z's The Black Album. The first is fairly obvious: the emergence of the mash-up as genre, the cross-section between electronic sampling, musique concrete, and out-and-out theft. The second: the newly assertive RIAA acting hysterically vigilant over copyright laws, artist's rights, et. Al., and the subsequent listener rebellion in response to that vigilance. The third is a bit of a stretch, but bear with me: Jay-Z's self-proclaimed "final album" release provoked a thunderclap of skepticism among listeners (That is, is the man who essentially lords over mainstream hip-hop committing an act of massive hubris–is he, in fact done, or is The Black Album just a massive ruse to invoke anticipation for his inevitable return?), imbuing his record with the sort of inviting radioactive glow emanating only out of the most unholy finalities. Dangermouse (nee Brian Burton), is the little man caught in the middle of it all, the talented hip-hop maestro behind last year's fabulous Ghetto Pop Life. In his words, "I intended for[The Grey Album] to be for friends and for people who knew my stuff. I figured it would get passed around, and it would be this little underground thing."
By merit of all the names involved alone, it's unsurprising that The Grey Album is a smash-hit. Instead, what's unexpected about the album is how listeners are using the record to take idealistic stances on the RIAA's highly restrictive policies on who "owns" music. Amid all the fervor surrounding the record, with EMI (Owner of The Beatles' recordings) basically freaking out, and Roc-A-Fella (Jay-Z's label) duly noting that while Dangermouse should have obtained permission to use Jay-Z's recordings, the record is otherwise "hot," the album has in a few short weeks become a substantial footnote in the histories of all artists and companies involved. While the various legal parties prepare to duke it out in some superhuman genre-lapsing slugfest that could potentially have significant ramifications on listener's and artist's rights, it's important for the listener to untangle himself from the political mire surrounding the record, and give notice to the music itself.
With no brilliant single or memorable melodic hook (I.E. the crunked-out tropicalia of "Big Pimpin'," or the Ecstacy-fueled delirium of "I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)," the monotony of Jay-Z's boasts on The Black Album treaded the line of off-putting egregiousness. The Grey Album, however, utilizes the rumble of John Lennon and George Harrison's muscular guitar interplay to transform stale sentiments like "I've got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one" (Taken from "99 Problems") into slightly more legitimate concerns. Tracks like "Allure," previously characterized by bland hip-hop melodies and stale beats, here seem reinvigorated by the freshness of Dangermouse's production and The Beatles' expert pop musicianship. Dangermouse smashes apart classic Beatles songs like "Long, Long, Long," emphasizes the most transmutable elements of those songs in wildly unpredictable ways, and splices them back together in service of Jay-Z's intricate wordplay. The result is at first disorienting, and then quieting. If the timelessness of The Beatles' music can mingle coherently with Jay-Z's modern rap, is genre really such hindrance, or is good music good music, no matter what form it exists in?
Dangermouse seems to subscribe the latter philosophy. Claiming his inspiration for The Grey Album came to him as suddenly and unsolicited as to be an epiphany ("I thought, hey; I can do this!"), the album does indeed contain a revelatory amount of cohesion. "Dirt Off Your Shoulder" flits through a sheaf of pop melodies, utilizing and discarding Beatles riffs' like bottles of Cristal. "Encore"'s use of Lennon/McCartney harmonizing ("Oh yeah!") renders the track more organic, urgent, and menacing that the original. Even the undulating tones of the aforementioned "Long, Long, Long"–as delicate and beautiful song as George Harrison ever wrote–are used here as a lush background for Jay-Z's thuggish rhymes. The record only falters when Dangermouse seems too keen on ameliorating the obviously disparate elements together–in these instances, when he resorts to looping particularly bass-heavy Beatles motif repeatedly, the listener is jerked back to the relative banality of The Black Album's production.
So to preemptively answer your question: No. The Grey Album isn't much more than a well-executed novelty, nor does it illuminate some genius hidden deep within The Black Album. But whatever the outcome of the legal entanglements surrounding it, The Grey Album's influence may irrevocably bridge the underground and mainstream hip-hop communities, allowing their influence to reflect off of–and in turn, influence–each other. If this serves to bring justly deserved fame and publicity to Dangermouse, more of it to The Beatles, and/or legitimize the art of sampling records to create new works, then The Grey Album may one day prove to be an important curio from our modern age: the record that gave the music back to the people.

Floyd Mayweather is back. Whether or not it is the Floyd Mayweather we know, the boxer nonpareil, or some new version remains to be seen. But we will see him. And he will be fighting a live opponent. The newly crowned Welterweight Victor Ortiz will be defending a belt at his new weight for the first time. A bit green, the eager, once-written-off kid from Oxnard, will have a second chance to show us whether his 'no mas' moment was an anomaly or a pattern. And man does he have the right opponent in the saaviest veteran possible, FMJ. It should be a good one while it lasts.
Then we have the fight some think should have happened some time ago, Manny Pacquaio vs. Juan Manuel Marquez, two extraordinary fighters and performers meeting for the third time. Yes, they are older and their optimal weight quite different but no one can deny or doubt that bothe men will bring it in November. Anticipate a battle. Both men want to put an 'controversy' over their past two fights to rest.
And then there is Carl Froch, the unoorthodox battler from Nottingham, fighting for the SuperSix title against the Son of God (well, not really) Andre Ward, the former Olympic Gold medal winner and undefeated pro from the Bay Area USA. No one expects a ballet when these two meet and it could get downright uglybut no one doubts either man's desire to win.
My question: Which will be the best of the three....and which has the greatest potential to dissappoint?

Thanks so much!
The synnetry and framing draw the viewer in, beckoning like the scent of chocolate cake. Irresistible, enticing, breathtaking.
Very beautifully poetic.
Thanks…I just love purple and liked the contrast of the yellow.

Elesondra Dermano says, "This is a place where young girls can come and get off the streets and just have somewhere to go."
STARS offers assistance for women aged 18 to 24 who have been victims of human trafficking.
The shelter is asking for donations of blankets, pillows and sleeping bags. Those items can be dropped off at the shelter.

November 1, 2005
Lowndes County - Friends and neighbors gather outside Deidra Miller's home on Mt. Zion Church Road, in shock over her murder.
"As far as I was concerned, it didn't seem like there was a problem or anything, she was in a good mood, she always had a good attitude," said Oliver Finley, Miller's co-worker.
But apparently there were problems between Miller and her ex-boyfriend, Julonda Clayton. Investigators found her shot to death inside her car this morning. They think Clayton pulled the trigger. "They had a nine year history," said Lt. Wanda Edwards.
Investigators think Miller encountered Clayton in her driveway when she was getting ready to take her son to daycare. She then tore through the neighbor's yard trying to get away from him. "It looks like they got into a chase and he chased her," said Edwards.
Miller's car crashed into a tree in her neighbor's back yard, and investigators are trying to figure out if she was shot before or after the wreck. Clayton then took the child from the car and dropped him off at day care. When workers there saw blood on his clothes, they called 9-1-1. "The child was able to tell us that it was him, he called him by his nickname and said he had shot his mom," said Edwards.
Now police are conducting a massive manhunt to find Clayton, whose considered armed and extremely dangerous. "He has family in Jacksonville and Atlanta, so we're notifying everybody and putting out a lookout, we don't want anybody else to get hurt," said Edwards.
Miller's co-workers say she never spoke of her relationship with Clayton, and they don't know why someone would hurt such a wonderful person. "She was real humble, educated, just a real sweet lady, befriended everyone she met," said Edward Denson.
Miller's son was counseled by representatives from the Children's Advocacy Center. He's now safe with his father and grandparents. Investigators think Julonda Clayton is driving a dark blue Chevrolet Avalanche with a Florida license plate number X25BTA. The victim is the sister of N.F.L. star and Valdosta native Randall Godfrey.

Top 9 Reasons to Come to the 2012 International Sportsmen's Expo
Author: Trouts Staff
The Denver Angling Community is
cursed blessed every January when The Fly Fishing Show and The International Sportmen's Expo (ISE) converge on Denver, all in the same weekend. We're not going to waste time pretending that this is an ideal situation, nor are we going to delve into our personal feelings about two competing consumer fly fishing shows. Instead, we're going to offer a simple list of why you, as a consumer, should plan on spending a day (or two) at this year's 2012 International Sportsmen's Expo.
1. Trou'ts Fly Fishing will be there, Booth R747. We'll be offering amazing daily show specials on a variety of fly fishing goods, but you have to be in attendance. In addition, we're going to refund the $15 entry fee for anybody who purchases $100 or more at our booth!
2. The ISE show offers better savings to those who attend. You can also click here to receive a $2 OFF coupon for all Denver show dates.
The International Sportsmen's Expo: $15/adult, FREE/children under 15, FREE/active military
* Total number of Exhibitors: 398
The Fly Fishing Show: $15/adult, FREE/children under 5, $2/children under 12, FREE/active military, FREE/scouts in uniform
* Total number of Exhibitors: 88
3. More show days and longer show hours at ISE (click here to view The Fly Fishing Show's hours)
Thursday, 1/5/12: 12pm - 9pm
Wednesday, 1/6/12: 12pm - 9pm
Saturday, 1/7/12: 9am - 8pm
Sunday, 1/8/12: 10am - 5pm
4. Unique and one of a kind presentations at ISE in the Fly Fishing Theater, the Aquarium Demonstration Tank and on the main Casting Pond. A variety of fly fishing personalities will also be on hand including: Pat Dorsey, Landon Mayer, Greg Thomas, Kelly Galloup, Kirk Deeter, Kerry Caraghar, Greg Felt, and April Vokey just to name a few.
5. Trout's Fly Fishing will be raffling off a Sage ONE 590-4 Fly Rod during the show, will all proceeds going to the Children's Hospital. This is a great way to get in the running to win the best fly rod of 2012, as well as help kids in need. Tickets will be sold during the show (1/5 - 1/8), with the winner being announced at 4pm on the 8th.
6. Come test your casting skills at the 2012 Best of the West Accuracy Flycasting Tournament. Open to the public, this event is a great way to see how your skills with a fly rod match up to the best anglers in the industry.
7. If you're a bird hunter, the show's Sporting-Dog Arena presents hourly seminars by training experts, including two local vets.
8. If you're passionate about the outdoors and want to pass on the tradition, bring your family to the huge Youth Fair, hosted by Colorado Parks & Wildlife. In addition to archery, shooting safety, catch-and-release fishing and live raptors, this year's Youth Fair includes a huge Nature Trail, created by "Stay the Trail" and "Wildlife Experience Museum." Youth under 16 enter the show for free, and all gear and expert instruction in the Youth Fair is free.
9. 2012 DockDogs Water-Jumping Contest. We're dog lovers and think this is actually pretty cool. Come see the Trout's Shop Dogs (a.k.a Winston and Houser) dominate this years contest (by dominate we mean fail, and by fail we mean have fun)
We at the Fly Fishing Show do not believe there are two competing fly fishing shows in the Denver area. One is a sportsmans show and the other a fly fishing show. We feel there is a need for both shows and wish 100% success to the ISE show and those exhibiting. The Fly Fishing Show is on the same dates it has had since it's start in Denver and ISE had recently moved its dates to the same weekend. That said, if you choose to make your reasons for attending ISE more of a comparison, I would like you to have your facts correct.
The Fly Fishing Show will have over 140 exhibitors covering more than 200 booth spaces. In review of the ISE listing of exhibitors, there are less than 45 fly fishing exhibitors of which several will be at both shows and this includes an large percentage of fishing lodges. Every booth at the Fly Fishing Show is in the fly fishing business.
The Fly Fishing Show has Adventure Theater, Destination Theater, the Catch Room, and the Release Room as well as the Author's Booth and Featured Fly Tier delivering over 175 fly fishing presentations plus over 40 demonstration fly tiers at any given time. Celebrities such as AK Best, Gary Borger, Charlie Craven, Jeff Currier, George Daniel, Bill Edrington, Ed Engle, John Gierach, Rick Hafele, Dave Hughes, Steve Rajeff, Steve Schweitzer, Jim Schollmeyer, Rick Takahashi, Dave Whitlock, and many more will be speaking.
At the Fly Fishing Show, there are chances to win over $30,000.00 in fly fishing door prizes.
Feel free to ask us about any information related to the Fly Fishing Show. We hope the sportsman's show is a success for you.

While physical developmental milestones are often some of the easiest to observe, the early years of a child's life are also marked by other developmental milestones, including social and emotional ones. In many cases, these achievements can be difficult or even impossible to identify directly since they often involve such things as increased self-awareness. Such skills can be tough to see, but they are just as important as the physical milestones, especially since social and emotional skills become so important once a child enters school.
From Birth to 3 Months
During the first three months, babies are actively learning about themselves and the people around them. Part of this skill-building involves:
- Looking at their own hands and sucking on fingers
- Looking at the part of their body that a parents or caregiver is touching
- Understanding how the legs and arms are attached
- Realizing that they are separate beings from those around them
- Learning to be comforted and soothed by adults
- Enjoying social stimulation and smiling at people
- Responding to touch
From 3 to 6 Months
Social interaction becomes increasingly important. During this period of development, most babies begin to:
- Respond when their name is said
- Smile
- Laugh
- Play peek-a-boo
From 6 to 9 Months
As babies get older, they may begin to show a preference for familiar people. Between the ages of six to nine months, most children can:
- Express a number of emotions including happiness, sadness, fear, and anger
- Distinguish between familiar family and friends and strangers
- Show frustration when a toy is taken away
- Respond to spoken words and gestures
From 9 to 12 Months
As children become more social, they often begin to mimic the actions of others. Self-regulation also becomes increasingly important at the child approaches one year of age. Most kids can:
- Hold a cup and drink with help
- Imitate simple actions
- Feed themselves small bites of food
- Express anxiety when separated from parents or caregivers
From 1 to 2 Years
From the age of one to two years, kids often spend more time interacting with a wider range of people. They also start to gain a greater sense of self-awareness. At this stage, most can:
- Recognize their own image in the mirror
- Initiate play activities
- Play independently, often imitating adult actions
- Act pleased when the accomplish something
- Start trying to help, often by putting toys away
- Express negative emotions including anger and frustration
- Become more self-assertive and may try to direct the actions of others
From 2 to 3 Years
During the toddler years, kids become more and more creative and confident. At two years old, most kids begin to:
- Become aware that they are a boy or girl
- Begin to dress and undress themselves
- Demonstrate personal preferences about toys, food, and activities
- Start saying "No" to adults
- Enjoy watching and playing with other children
- Become defensive about their own possessions
- Use objects symbolically during play
- Often have rapid changes in mood
From 3 to 4 Years
Because three-year-olds are becoming increasingly able to perform physical actions, their sense of confidence and independence becomes more pronounced at this age. During the third year, most children begin to:
- Follow directions
- Perform some tasks with little or no assistance
- Share toys with other kids
- Make up games and ask other children to join in
- Begin engaging in pretend play
From 4 to 5 Years
During the fourth year, children gain a greater awareness of their own individuality. As their physical skills increase, they are more capable of exploring their own abilities which can help lead to great confidence and personal pride. At this age, most kids begin to:
- Understand basic differences between good and bad behavior
- Develop friendships with other kids
- Compare themselves to other children and adults
- Become more aware of other people's feelings
- Enjoy dramatic, imaginative play with other children
- Enjoy competitive games
How Can Parents Help Kids Develop Social and Emotional Skills?
During the first few years of life, it is essential for children to learn that they can trust and rely on their caregivers. By being responsive and consistent, parents help children learn that they can depend on the people they are close to. A big part of this also involves providing consistent rules and discipline as a child get older. If a child knows what is expected and what will happen when the rules are broken, they will learn that the world is orderly. Doing this also help kids develop a greater sense of self-control.
In order to develop social and emotional skills, parents need to give their children the opportunity to play with others, explore their own abilities and express their feelings. While maintaining limits, it is always a good idea to offer children choices so that they can begin asserting their own preferences. "Do you want peas or corn for dinner?" or "Do you want to wear the red shirt or the green shirt?" are examples of questions that parents should pose to help kids make their own decisions.
In social situations, help you child learn how to express their emotions in appropriate ways. When strong emotions like anger or jealousy rear their heads, encourage your child to talk about how he is feeling without acting out inappropriately. When unsuitable emotional responses do occur, such as hitting or yelling, make it clear that the actions are not acceptable, but always offer an alternative response. Model the type of behavior you expect to see.
