In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, John Legend and ?uestlove spilled new details on their forthcoming Wake Up Sessions LP, due out this September. Originally starting off as a collaboration to cover Arcade Fire track, the project took on a life of it's own, maturing into a full length album.
"People tend to frown on the cover album," ?uest told R.S., "so I wanted to choose cover songs that were so under the radar, so uniquely interpreted, that it would take you a second to realize that these are cover songs."
Among these tracks are covers of Marvin Gaye's "Wholy Holy", Roberta Flack's "Compared To What", Nina Simone's "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free", Prince Lincoln & The Royal Rasses "Love (The Way It Should Be)", Donny Hathaway's "Little Ghetto Boy", Baby Huey and the Babysitters' "Hard Times" (featuring Black Thought), Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes' "Wake Up Everybody" (feat. Common), and Ernie Hines "Our Generation", (as sampled by Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth for "Straighten It Out").
"I wanted this to be his worst performance ever," ?uestlove told the magazine. "The side I wanted to expose was very raw, so for every vocal take he did, I tried to choose the one with the cracks."
Meanwhile, Legend will appear on The Roots How I Got Over, appearing on "The Fire", and a remake of "Again", from Legend's Once Again LP. ?uest considers the two albums – How I Got Over and The Wake Up Sessions – companion pieces to one another, The Roots LP representing the "midlife crisis of america", while John's is "the spoonful of sugar that helps the medicine go down."
They were deeper into Legend's album at press time, despite The Roots' LP having a June 22nd street date, as confirmed by Universal.
"We play it very close to the edge," ?uestlove added. "I won't turn in any record before its time, before I get goose bumps and I get that feeling in my stomach. I definitely have it with both albums."

EADS in talks to buy part of French gvt stake
The parent company of European jet maker Airbus says it is in talks to buy back almost half a billion euros worth of its own stock from the French government.
The Associated Press
The parent company of European jet maker Airbus says it is in talks to buy back almost half a billion euros worth of its own stock from the French government.
European aerospace giant EADS says in a statement Monday that the deal would see it buy back 1.56 percent of its shares from the French government's current 14.83 percent stake. The company will pay 37.35 euros per share - about the same as French media group Lagardere was paid when it sold its entire stake last week.
Earlier this month. EADS launched a 3.75 billion euro share buyback program. The French government has also recently indicated its intention to trim its shareholdings.

NORAD Santa Tracker: Stay Up To Date On Santa's Location
Updated On: Dec 24 2012 10:54:43 AM CST
Santa has begun his big flight around the world with the help of his reindeer.
NORAD said it uses four high-tech systems to track Santa –- radar, satellites, Santa Cams and fighter jets.
Tracking Santa starts with the NORAD radar system called the North Warning System, according to its website. This powerful radar system consists of 47 installations strung across the northern border of North America, its website said.
On Christmas Eve, NORAD will continuously monitor the radar systems for Santa Claus' latest position.
NORAD has made available its map for everyone to track Santa. Just remember, Santa knows when you are sleeping and when you are awake.

Debra Reynolds choked back tears as she paid tribute to her best friend and soul mate.
"Never in my life would I think that I had to be the one saying goodbye," she said.
The 27-year-old was killed in Londonderry on Saturday when a stolen 4x4 crashed into her unmarked police car which was on a routine patrol.
Philippa, who was a backseat passenger, died instantly. Two of her colleagues were injured.
"To know that she touched so many lives in such a short time on earth is a real comfort to us all," Debra continued, discussing her younger sister's love of nights out, shopping, movies and books.
"I'll never understand why God chose to take her from us at such a young age - when she had so much to give - and I can't imagine one moment of my life without her.
"The baby of this family is gone - my daddy's little girl," she added.
Parents Mervyn and Dorothy, and sisters Debra and Nicola, led the mourners at Mossley Methodist Church Newtownabbey, Co Antrim after a private service was conducted at the family home. The burial then took place at Carnmoney Cemetery.
The First Minister Peter Robinson, deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness and Justice Minister David Ford were among the hundreds of mourners.
Earlier on Wednesday, the PSNI Chief Constable Matt Baggott described the day as one of "profound sadness and sorrow."
The PSNI chief said she was "a superb police officer" working for the "finest police service in the world," before adding that "Philippa was, undoubtedly, the best of the best."
We will not forget her, and my commitment to her family is that we will work even harder to be the Police Service that she stood for.Chief Constable Matt Baggott
We will not forget her, and my commitment to her family is that we will work even harder to be the Police Service that she stood for.
Chief Constable Matt Baggott
In an emotional interview, Matt Baggott - along with District Commander Chief Superintendent Stephen Cargin - thanked the Reynolds family "for giving her to us."
"She was kind, she was caring, she was courageous when necessary, she was compassionate," he said.
Philippa originally qualified as a teacher before leaving the profession to accept a place in the police training college in February 2011.
The PSNI chief revealed how he had been the convening officer at Constable Reynolds police graduation and said she had sent ripples through people's lives.
He said she was "part of the story of peace building in Derry/Londonderry."
"Peace comes when people show kindness, peace comes when people are caring - and Philippa was part of that story."
He said that it was a "huge privilege" as her Chief Constable to be able to pay tribute to her.
"I know that today there will be huge numbers of people who have the family in their thoughts and prayers and I know they'll take some comfort in that and on behalf of the police service, I thank people for their support."
On Monday, two homeless men appeared in court in Derry in connection with the crash.
Conor Clarence, 23, and Shane Frane, 25, who are both from the Simon Community hostel at Bonds Hill in Derry, stand accused of a total of 14 offences.

One of the woes of the current Wii U virtual console iteration is that many people are reporting lag and frame rate delay, as seen above in the .gif. Seemingly up to 6 to 8 frames pass between the time the button is first pressed to the time that Mario actually jumps. I've only played Super Ghouls n' Ghosts, Super Mario World, and a bit of Super Metroid and while I was able to do well at the first two, the last was nearly impossible to do wall jumps correctly. It seems I wasn't the only one with this problem.
Numerous redditors are reporting laggy games, with Punch-Out! and Super Metroid being cited the most. Have you experienced this type of lag while playing Wii U virtual console games? How about the legacy Wii virtual console? Let us know in the comments below.

(ABC 6 News) -- Over the past four years Rochester grew by 5,000 people and with DMC, we'll be seeing much more of that growth.
More than 20,000, that's how many people moved here to Rochester within the past decade and that was before Destination Medical Center. Now that DMC has passed, we've been assured plenty more growth, meaning a lot more housing has to be made available.
When a historic home on the corner of 5th and 5th downtown was demolished for apartments, it struck a nerve for nearby residents and a similar worry is back on the table. The newest apartment complex proposal would be a 83-unit apartment at the 700 block of West Center Street near downtown.
"The zoning is R4 on the eastern end of the development but it's R3 on the western end," said Dave Edmonson with the Kutzky Park Neighborhood Association. If zoning were to be changed, is that setting the wrong precedent? We asked the mayor. "I particularly don't like it when we have to make modifications to some of our 'rules' that we have," said Rochester Mayor Ardell Brede. Mayor Brede doesn't want it to, but admits some changes along the way may be necessary. "Again, some of those were over 20 years ago, maybe 30 years ago, and things have changed," said Brede.
With DMC for example, there could be up to 40,000 new jobs. "That's probably like 2-3 people each so theoretically, or even arguably, we could double in our size in the next 20 years," said Brede
Growth can certainly be a good thing, the worry is, how to embrace growth while still maintaining what's historically meaningful to this community. "We really embrace the change. We have a lot of properties that need redevelopment," said Edmonson.
"It's exciting times, there's no question. It's challenging for sure but it's exciting as well," said Brede.
That specific project is only in the beginning stages. It must first go in front of the planning commission, then city council would have to approve it.

Poems by Spiritwind Wood : 11 / 236
A Warrior
We were born into this world a Warrior
to always protect and defend
a land that what meant to be free
through time many have lost their way
their pride stripped and taken away
but in the eye's of our Creator
our Spirits blow through the wind
strong we were meant to be
and to die in this world a Warrior
keeping what belongs to you and me

Kraków, Poland
Today I present to you a dress with limes,
the nicest possible to present to the market or greengrocery :)
I made it of black satin cotton, and in contrast I added some patterned fabric at the front.
The upper left part of the dress is made of a bright green cotton fabric.
I used the Burda pattern – 6/2008, model 118 (slightly modifying it).
The dress is very comfortable, just to wear it for every day.

Insurers wary of upcoming hurricane season
Published: May 17,2010
Tags: hurricanes, insurance, natural disasters
OLDWICK, N.J. — After significant catastrophe losses in first quarter 2010, U.S. property/casualty insurers and global reinsurers are hoping their balance sheets do not face further financial risks, even as conditions appear ripe for the upcoming hurricane season to be potentially as active as 2005, according to A.M. Best Co.
The industry enters the season on the strength of underwriting and financial results that rebounded in 2009 after deteriorating in 2008, a year marked by catastrophe losses from hurricanes Ike and Gustav and poor investment returns associated with the global financial turmoil.
Three forecasters predict four intense hurricanes in the Atlantic Basin, well above the long-term average of two to three intense storms. Warmer sea surface temperatures and a transition to neutral El Niño conditions are expected to enhance hurricane activity.
State wind and beach plans and last-resort insurers saw in-force liabilities grow by double and even triple-digit percentages from 2005 to 2009 in states such as North Carolina, Florida and Texas.
Though still major writers of homeowners' multi-peril, Citizens Property Insurance Corporation in Florida and Louisiana Citizens Property Insurance Corp. have shifted market share to other carriers through takeout programs.
Oldwick, N.J.-based A.M. Best Co. data show insurers' pullback from hurricane prone states accelerated in the 2005-2009 period compared with homeowners' multi-peril business written earlier in the decade.
The top 10 A.M. Best rated writers' market share fell more than eight percentage points from 2005-2009 in Louisiana; about three percentage points in Mississippi; and more than nine percentage points in Texas.

Kirk Herbstreit: The Jim Tressel saga began the night of March 7th, and finally, seven weeks later, ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit – who played QB at OSU and is the most visible alumni from the program because he hosts Gameday – chimed in. "If this would have happened to John Cooper, not only would they have fired him, they would have actually lined it up and had a firing squad and fired him." Herbstreit also engaged in back-and-forth with readers on twitter. He took some heat for saying OSU shouldn't recruit players like Pryor and Clarett, but later clarified that statement. What took Herbstreit so long to weigh in? Well, he did move from Ohio to Tennessee. Tangentially related and unintentionally funny: Tony Barnhart drags the SEC into this.

From: Hempstead, TX
Region: Southwest
Topic: Planting, Privacy Screening, Shrubs
Title: Hankering for a view-blocking hedge in Hempstead, TX.
Answered by: Jimmy Mills
QUESTION:Hempstead is 50 miles west of Houston and I am looking for a fast growing native to provide a block of a view for a fairly large area (about half a block). I would prefer something that is also beneficial for birds.
To look for some possibilities, lets go to our Native Plant Database. After clicking on the link, scroll down to the Combination Search Box, and make the following selections: choose Texas under State, Shrub under Habit, and Perennial under Duration. Check Sun under Light requirement ,and Moist under Soil moisture. Click the "Submit combination Search" button and you will get a list of 51 native species occurring in Texas that meet these parameters. Clicking on the name of each plant will bring up its NPIN database page that describes the plant's characteristics, its growth requirements as well as pictures.
Since this a common query that Mr. Smarty Plants receives, there are previous answers that you can look at. Here are a couple from Texas; one is from Hempstead, and the other is from Magnolia. I think they can help answer your question.

I didn't get much sleep on the bus last night, maybe an hour or two. I was so impressed with the tv system they had that I didn't want to go to sleep. I don't usually have my own tv like that at hostels so I wanted to take advantage of it while I could. We pulled in to Prague's main train station at 6am, and I was happy to see …
Jarmila, Karlov Most and Curdled Yoghurt
... We climbed the gatehouse at the end of Charles Bridge (Karlov Most), which I had wanted to do for several years. Previously, however, I had always had kids in a buggy to deal with. This time, unencumbered, I managed it. We took pictures over the Vlatava, towards the castle and enjoyed the rooftop view of the city.

Tomorrow morning we will finally have our first tour with Amawaterways and our fellow cruise passengers. We are anxious to meet them and to finally see Old Town Square and Prague Castle! We must be the only tourists who have ever visited Prague and waited until the third day to see the castle and Old Town Square!

Prague Day 2

As we continued our stroll along, Kamil showed us a few buildings that had pictures of animals on it i.e. golden snack or blue fish. These pictures were used as part of the building's address since people were not literate at the time.

Thunder notebook: Nick Collison concerned about ankle; Kevin Durant plagued by foul trouble
Collison concerned about ankle?Sidelined since camp opened more than two weeks ago by a severely sprained ankle, veteran forward Nick Collison was asked if he's concerned with the season opener less than two weeks away.
"I haven't even practiced, yet, so I'm definitely going to be behind," Collison said. "Yeah, I'm concerned. I'll be fine eventually. You never want to be behind. But you also want to be 100 percent. I'm doing pretty good with the pain. It's the explosiveness is what I don't have." Collison hopes to play in the Thunder's next preseason game, Monday night in Houston, but said he will play only if he's assured his ankle has healed.
FOUL TROUBLEKevin Durant scored a game-high 30 points but was plagued by foul trouble. Durant was whistled for four fouls the first half and drew his fifth with 6:35 left in the third quarter. He joked that he needed to play late in the game just to get in his full allotment of minutes. "I've never been in that position, getting five fouls that early," Durant said. "I was guarding guys coming off a lot of screens and running around a lot. It was a challenge but something that will make me better."
HARDEN SITSRookie guard James Harden, the No. 3 overall pick, was told before the game he would not play against the Heat. "It's just part of the rotation," said Thunder coach Scott Brooks. "I wanted to get a look at Shaun (Livingston) and Kyle (Weaver).

Theophilus London - Cold Pillow ft. Jesse Boykins III
Artist: Theophilus London
Featuring: Jesse Boykins III
Producer: Ricci Rucker
Album: This Charming Mixtape
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 14 votes )
Looking to push his music past the industry-standard boundaries that rule radio is Brooklyn's own Theophilus London, who has a potential single in Cold Pillow. Longing for a lost love, London implements a uniquely conversational vocal style that is both earnest and appealing to the senses. Those descriptors apply equally well to guest artist Jesse Boykins III who flanks London on this track off his This Charming Mixtape. Producer/DJ Ricci Rucker provides an ideal mixture of new and old on the production tip. Be on the lookout for the London Wave in '09 – Theophilus has an ear-catching sound that could break today's Top 40.

An Arizona sheriff known for his tough stance on illegal immigration has told a group of nearly 2,000 Kansas Republicans that his state needs its new immigration law because the federal government isn't doing its job.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio spoke Tuesday night at a rally in suburban Kansas City for Republican Kansas secretary of state candidate Kris Kobach.
Kobach helped write the Arizona law that directs officers to question people who have been stopped for another crime about their immigration status if there's a reasonable suspicion they're in the U.S. illegally.
Arpaio says the law will allow his state to protect its residents.
Several hundred protesters lined the sidewalk outside the rally. They say the law will lead to racial profiling.

Charles Arlinghaus: A $400 million hole was just blown in the state budget
Hospitals were content to go along with this because the agency that regulated them, the state HHS department, told them they would be doing the state a favor and the tax would never be real. Then-commissioner Harry Bird assured hospitals that if the federal government ever disallowed the arrangement, the "tax" would go away.

Israel: At least 1 rocket fired from Gaza Strip
The Israeli military says at least one rocket was fired from the Gaza Strip toward Israel but that its missile defense system intercepted the projectile.
The Israeli military says at least one rocket was fired from the Gaza Strip toward Israel but that its missile defense system intercepted the projectile.
The army says the defense battery -- known as the "Iron Dome" -- intercepted one rocket above the city of Ashkelon early on Monday. The army says an additional rocket was likely launched as well. No injuries were reported.
The "Iron Dome" has shot down hundreds of rockets launched by Gaza militants.
The rocket fire comes as Israel released the names of 26 Palestinian prisoners to be freed as part of a U.S.-brokered deal that led to the resumption of Mideast peace talks.
The prisoners to be released were jailed for the killings of Israelis before the beginning of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks in 1993.

Perhaps you have spent the last few months squinting into your phone's screen, swiping at colorful dots or candy shapes with your fingertips to varying degrees of frustration. And while games like Dots and Candy Crush Saga are perfectly fine time-wasters in their own right, both lack the imaginative and addictive thrill of Send Me to Heaven, which could have gone down as one of the best iPhone games of all time…if only Apple hadn't rejected it.
Its premise is simple. You throw your phone in the air as high as you can. Your phone's gyroscopes and doo-dads calculate how high you threw it, and record your score on SMTH's leader boards. (The current top score is 40 meters, apparently.)
Then, hopefully you catch it. That's it.
Apparently, the App Store's gatekeepers thought this was a bad idea, and didn't want a bunch of Apple's butter-fingered customers smashing their iPhones to bits, as is their prerogative.
Android users, on the other hand, can still download the game at the Google Play store, where it currently has a respectable ranking of 4 1/2 stars.*
As for helpful hints? SMTH's creators got you covered (emphasis added):
Be careful not to injure yourself or others. Be always aware that there is enough space above you and around you. Do some training to learn right skills to get best results. Switch on GPS on your phone and allow the App to use location to be able to take part in local competition. [Google Play]
Good to know! And in case you're wondering: No, a PC version does not appear to be imminent.
*The Week, of course, endorses that you catch your phone should you throw it in the air, and is not liable for any damages that may be incurred from playing this insane game.

Iowa State guard Chris Babb suspended three games for violation of team rules
Nov 1, 2012, 4:00 PM EST
With Royce White now in the NBA, Iowa State needs veterans such as senior guard Chris Babb to step if the Cyclones are to return to the NCAA tournament.
Unfortunately for Babb his senior campaign isn't off to the best start, as the school announced that head coach Fred Hoiberg has suspended for three games for a violation of team rules.
Babb will miss the Cyclones' exhibition against Minnesota State and the regular season games against Southern and Alabama A&M.
Coach Hoiberg announced today that Chris Babb will miss the exhibition and the first 2 regular season games for a violation of team rules.—
Cyclone Basketball (@CycloneMBB) November 01, 2012
No comment from Hoiberg thus far on what triggered the move, but something like this can serve as a wake-up call to make sure things don't get worse down the line.
Babb averaged 7.8 points and 4.1 rebounds per game last season, starting all 34 contests that he played in.
Iowa State lost their top three scorers from last season, and the hope is that players such as Babb and Tyrus McGee can step up alongside transfers Korie Lucious (Michigan State) and Will Clyburn (Utah) to make up for the loss of Scott Christopherson and Chris Allen on the perimeter.
The Cyclones also add freshmen Sherron Dorsey-Walker, Naz Long and Kerwin Okoro to the mix on the perimeter.
Iowa State will be fine in those two regular season games without Babb, and he'll have a couple games under his belt before the Cyclones hit Las Vegas for the Global Vision Classic November 23 and 24 (Cincinnati, followed by either UNLV or Oregon).

Former prosecutor says Tawana Brawley still owes him $429,000, including interest, after falsely calling him a 'gang-raping, kidnapping racist'
- Steven Pagones, a former assistant district attorney, says Brawley 'never told the truth about this hoax or paid me a cent'
- Brawley, 40, has been found living a relatively normal life in Hopewell, Virginia
- She is a nurse and has a young daughter but said 'I don't want to talk to anyone about that' when questioned about her former life
- At 15, she claimed she was raped by a gang of white men, one of which had a badge
- Three men were accused in the 1987 attack
- In 1988, a grand jury found the incredible story of brutality was all a hoax
A former prosecutor who says Tawana Brawley, now known as Tawana Gutierrez, falsely dragged his name through the mud in a defamation judgment from 1987 is looking to collect this year.
Steven Pagones, a former Dutchess County prosecutor, says Brawley still owes him $429,000, including interest, after falsely calling him a 'gang-raping, kidnapping racist.'
'In all these years, she's never told the truth about this hoax or paid me a cent,' Pagones told the New York Post on Christmas Eve.
'Now I'm going to seek anything I'm entitled to under the law,' he said.
'In all these years, she's never told the truth about this hoax or paid me a cent,' says former assistant district attorney Steven Pagones
That could well cost Brawley, a single mom working as a nurse in Virginia, up to a couple of hundred dollars a week, according to the Post.
Twenty-five years after Brawley's claims of being raped by a gang of white men polarised New York City, the woman has been tracked down living in hiding in Virginia.
On November 28, 1987, the then-15-year-old was found in a trash bag, dazed, smeared with feces with the word n****r scrawled on her body.
She told police she had been abducted by two white men and driven to the woods where they and four others ravaged her for four days - one of which had a badge.
Here to collect: Pagones says he would consider dropping his demand for money if Brawley admits she made up her story against him
The case was catapulted onto the national stage by attorneys Alton H. Maddox and C. Vernon Mason, and the then-little-known Rev. Al Sharpton, who claimed she was raped 33 times.
Celebrities weighed in, with Bill Cosby posting a $25,000 reward for information on the case, Don King promised $100,000 for Brawley's education and boxer Mike Tyson gave her a $30,000 watch to ease her pain.
Fishkill Police Officer Harry Crist Jr. was implicated after being found dead in his apartment a week after Brawley was discovered, and Pagones was also accused when he stepped in with an alibi for the 28-year-old.
But in 1988 a grand jury found the whole shocking story was a hoax, and Brawley was never raped.
Now 40 years old, The New York Post tracked her down working as a nurse in Virginia.
'I don't want to talk to anyone about that,' Brawley told the newspaper recently as she emerged from her apartment in Hopewell, Virginia, wearing scrubs.
Racial tensions: Rev Al Sharpton catapulted the case of Tawana Brawley, center, onto the main stage and made him a household name across the country
Historic case: Reverend Al Sharpton, pictured in 1988, picketed outside the hotel of New York governor Mario Cuomo
She lives what appears to be a relatively normal life in a neatly kept brick apartment complex with signs warning of video surveillance cameras.
To avoid detection, Brawley goes by the aliases of Thompson and Gutierrez and has a young daughter, a neighbor told the Post.
She reportedly works as a licensed practical nurse at The Laurels of Bon Air in Richmond. But her co-workers have been in the dark about the incredible story of brutality, which turned out to be false.
'Are you serious? We don't know her by that name. Isn't that a trip?' one staffer said, adding that the woman who they call Tawana Gutierrez was 'a good worker.'
According to a neighbor, Brawley has lived in Hopewell - Virginia's most crime-laden town - for at least a year.
'Tawana V. Gutierrez' and 'Tawana V. Thompson' have held the same nursing license since 2006, state records show. The Virginia Board of Nursing confirmed issuing it to a 'Tawana Vacenia Thompson Gutierrez.'
False claims: Brawley, pictured in 1988, claimed she was gang raped by a group of white men, one of whom had a badge
Rally: Tawana Brawley, left in 1988, of Wappinger Falls, N.Y., was the center of the legal controversy over her rape charges
Brawley maintains a PO box in Claremont, Va., under the name Gutierrez, according to The Post's sources.
The grand jury panel, which heard from 180 witnesses over its seven-month investigation, found that Brawley made up the story to avoid being punished for staying out late and missing school.
They found evidence she had ran away from home and was hiding out in her parents' former apartment after they got evicted.
Many believed that Brawley feared her stepdad Ralph King's and needed an alibi for her absence. King spent seven years in prison in the 1970s for killing his first wife.
Traces of the charcoal-like material used to scrawl the hateful word on her body were found under her fingernails, and she showed no signs of genital trauma or exposure, the jury found. One witness said Brawley was spotted climbing into the bin bag.
We believe you: The case polarised New York City in the late 1980s
Lawsuit: Brawley, pictured in 1997, spoke at a rally in support of Alton Maddox who lost a lawsuit for defamation of character by Steven Pagones
'It is probable that in the history of this state, never has a teenager turned the prosecutorial and judicial systems literally upside down with such false claims,' state Supreme Court Justice S. Barrett Hickman wrote at the time.
Pagones has tried to forget the sorry affair but says he can't.
'It'll come up randomly. It'll come up when something happens with Sharpton,' he told The Post.
Pagones won a defamation lawsuit against Sharpton, Brawley and her lawyers in 1998.
Maddox was found liable for $97,000, Mason for $188,000, and Sharpton was ordered to pay $66,000. Brawley was ordered to pay $190,000 at 9 per cent annual interest but hasn't paid any of that bill. In total, she owes $429,000.
He continues to look for her.
'Through her silence, she's as guilty of libel as Maddox, Mason and Sharpton,' he told the newspaper. 'The only way to hold her accountable — at least at this stage — is financially.'

Although his career stretches back half a century and includes over 100 films and countless TV programs, Leslie Nielsen gained true fame late in his career, when he starred in a series of comic spoofs beginning with 1980's Airplane!.
The son of a Canadian Mountie and the brother of Canada's future Deputy Prime Minister, Nielsen was born in Regina, Saskatchewan, on February 11, 1926. He developed an early knack for acting when he was forced to lie to his disciplinarian father in order to avoid punishment, and he went on to become a radio announcer after serving in the Royal Canadian Air Force during WWII (despite being legally deaf, the result of a childhood illness). To prepare himself for his future career, Nielsen studied at Toronto's Academy of Radio Arts, which was run by CBC commentator and future Bonanza star Lorne Greene. After several years in radio, he won a scholarship to New York's Neighborhood Playhouse, where he studied acting under Sanford Meisner and dance under Martha Graham. He then spent five years appearing on such live television programs as Tales From Tomorrow before making his film bow in Ransom! (1956). With the exception of his starring roles in the sci-fi classic Forbidden Planet (1956) and the popular Debbie Reynolds-vehicle Tammy and the Bachelor (1957), much of Nielsen's early work was undistinguished; he was merely a handsome leading man in an industry overstocked with handsome leading men. An attempt to do a "Davy Crockett" by starring as Francis Marion in the Disney TV saga The Swamp Fox resulted in a nifty title tune but little else. Nielsen went on to star in such series as The New Breed, Bracken's World, and Hawaii Five-O (1968), but found he was more in demand as a heavy than as a hero.
A notorious offscreen practical joker and cut-up, Nielsen was not given an onscreen conduit for this trait until he was cast in the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker spoof Airplane (1980). This led to his deadpan characterization of monumentally inept police lieutenant Frank Drebin on Z.A.Z.'s cult TV series Police Squad, which in turn spawned the 1988 hit The Naked Gun and two sequels. Nielsen also found success in a number of other film spoofs, so much, in fact, that those familiar only with his loopy comedy roles are invariably surprised that, once upon a time, he took himself deadly seriously in films like Harlow (1965) and The Poseidon Adventure (1972). Nielsen died at the age of 84, of pneumonia, in late November 2010.

Please don't use your email address as your user name it could mean you getting lots more spam etc.
Not only do you need a VGA cable but I think you will find that you will need an audio connection.
But a few more details as to what exactly is happening would help.

Janet Yellen Confirmed by Narrowest Margin Ever
Janet Yellen will be by some margin the best qualified Federal Reserve chair we've ever had. She'll also be the first woman to hold the post, and I believe the most important female policymaker in American history. Fairly remarkably, the vote on her confirmation was just 56–26 with a whole bunch of senators stuck out of town due to weather problems.
I understand of course that these are days of high polarization and lots of partisanship. But this really is a dismaying quantity of "no" votes, especially as the nays were hardly offering much in the way of compelling arguments. Rand Paul, for example, doesn't seem to understand that the Fed can't run out of money since they make the money.

Times were if you wanted to meet up with friends for a game of cards or to play a game of scrabble, you had to arrange a time and place, travel and such. But now, thanks to online gaming, you can now socialise with your friends without ever having to leave your living room. Some critics believe there are negative repercussions of such a lifestyle, and they may be right, but the truth is for some people this is a great way to meet new friends and have fun. Read More »
