CHICAGO (AP) -- President Barack Obama says the American people have "picked ourselves up" and fought back during tough economic times, declaring after winning re-election that the "best is yet to come."
Obama says he wants to meet with Republican rival Mitt Romney to discuss how they can work together. He says they may have "battled fiercely, but it's only because we love this country deeply."
The president rolled to a second term over Romney, winning more than 300 electoral votes.
Obama was welcomed by thunderous applause as he arrived on stage in his hometown, joined by first lady Michelle Obama and daughters Sasha and Malia.
Romney said earlier he called Obama to congratulate him on his victory, adding that he prays "the president will be successful in guiding our nation."

Shortly before 1 a.m. EST on Wednesday, Mitt Romney appeared at the Boston Convention Center to deliver a concession speech.
He was greeted by cheers and whistles in anticipation of what he'd say. Senior aides filed into the ballroom as Romney prepared to take the stage; visibly emotional, they shared hugs with each other as they watched.
Upon Romney's announcement that he had called President Barack Obama "to congratulate him on his victory," the raucous crowd redoubled its noise.
"This is a time of great challenges for America, and I pray the president will be successful in guiding our nation," Romney said.
He thanked his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, earning big applause.
Referring to his wife, Romney said: "I also want to thank Ann, the love of my life. She would have been a wonderful first lady."

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Republican Mitt Romney has called President Barack Obama to concede the presidential race.
That's according to an Obama aide who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the call was private.
Romney is expected to speak shortly in Boston before supporters.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- President Barack Obama has won Wisconsin, capturing the state's 10 electoral votes for a second time and defeating a Republican ticket that included Wisconsin U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan.
The president defeated Republican Mitt Romney in the state during Tuesday's election.
Obama won the state in 2008 by 14 points. But since then, Wisconsin has shifted hard to the right. Many Republicans were confident that Romney could win the state, given that Republican Gov. Scott Walker defeated a recall effort in June.
But Obama held a lead in the polls all year. In October, Obama attracted 30,000 people to the University of Wisconsin campus in Madison for his largest campaign event up to that point.
The win continues the string of Democratic presidential victories in Wisconsin dating back to 1984.

UPDATED: Tuesday, November 6, 2012 --- 10:53p.m.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama has been re-elected to a second term, defeating Republican Mitt Romney in a hard-fought race in which the economy was the dominant issue.
Voters decided to give Obama another four years of stewardship over an economy that is slowly recovering from the recession.
Obama captured battleground states including Ohio, Iowa and Colorado on his way to the 270 electoral votes he needed.
Romney unsuccessfully campaigned on the theme that his business background gave him the experience needed to guide the nation out of tough economic times.
Obama will again be dealing with a divided Congress. Democrats maintained control of the Senate and Republicans likely will again control the House. Among the most pressing matters is the so-called fiscal cliff of tax hikes and spending cuts scheduled to hit in January. Economists have warned that if they aren't averted, the nation could face another recession.

AP says President Obama wins Ohio. NBC News projects Obama will be re-elected.
The Associated Press has called Ohio for President Barack Obama. This makes the path to Obama's re-election much easier as no Republican has won the White House without this key swing state. The last president elected despite losing Ohio was Democrat John F. Kennedy in 1960, and the last sitting president to lose Ohio was George H.W. Bush in 1992 to Democrat Bill Clinton.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Mitt Romney is the winner in North Carolina, where both campaigns had worked to wrap up the state's 15 electoral votes.
While President Barack Obama hadn't returned to North Carolina since the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, first lady Michelle Obama was in the state Monday and former President Bill Clinton visited on Sunday.
Obama, meanwhile, has won Minnesota, despite a late Republican push in the state. And a win in California has given Obama an additional 55 electoral votes toward the 270 he needs to win a second term in office.
Mitt Romney has won in Arizona, with 11 electoral votes, and also in Idaho. But Romney earlier lost Pennsylvania and New Hampshire, two states in which his campaign had been hoping for a win. Obama has also picked up the four electoral votes from Hawaii.
Obama now has 229 electoral votes to Romney's 190.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A New England battleground state has gone to President Barack Obama. He won the four electoral votes at stake in New Hampshire.
Mitt Romney, meanwhile, has won in Utah, a state where he has ties. Romney was the organizer of the Salt Lake City Olympics.
Those results left Romney with 159 electoral votes, to Obama's 147.
Utah voters also re-elected veteran Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch to a seventh term. His Democratic rival, Scott Howell, made an issue of Hatch's age of 78.
In Massachusetts, Democrat Elizabeth Warren has defeated Republican Sen. Scott Brown in one of the most expensive races in the country. The two sides spent $68 million, even after banning outside money.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Pennsylvania has turned out to be safe for the Democrats after all. The state's 20 electoral votes are going to President Barack Obama.
Pennsylvania had been considered to be in Obama's column for much of the campaign. But in recent days, as polls appeared to narrow, Mitt Romney's campaign saw an opportunity. There was a late advertising blitz for Romney, and the candidate added visits to Pennsylvania Sunday and again on Election Day.
Voters in Indiana have rejected one of the two Republican Senate candidates whose campaigns ran into trouble because of comments about rape and abortion. Democrat Joe Donnelly defeated Republican Richard Mourdock, who slipped in the polls after saying during a debate that when a woman who is raped becomes pregnant, it's what "God intended."
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is the winner of the 16 electoral votes in Michigan -- the state that benefitted the most from the auto industry bailout. Michigan, where Mitt Romney's father served as governor, wasn't heavily contested by the two campaigns, though it did see some late GOP advertising.
Obama also won in New Jersey, battered last week by Hurricane Sandy.
Romney, meanwhile, has added Alabama's nine electoral votes to his column. Romney also captured the 38 electoral votes at stake in Texas, and added wins in Louisiana, Mississippi, Kansas, South Dakota, North Dakota, Arkansas and Wyoming. He also won at least four of Nebraska's five votes.
Obama won in New York, with 29 electoral votes. At last count, Romney has 153 electoral votes to Obama's 123.
Texans elected Republican Ted Cruz as the state's first Hispanic U.S. senator. Michigan Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow won re-election over former U.S. Rep. Peter Hoekstra. Democrats Kirsten Gillibrand in New York and Amy Klobuchar in Minnesota are also staying in their Senate seats. Republican John Barrasso won re-election in Wyoming.

The kinship of the opening motif (it is just this motif which Liszt labels 'Malédiction', rather than the whole score, which he left untitled) with the later Orage from the first of the Années de pèlerinage (see Vol 39) has often been remarked, as has Liszt's use of the succeeding first theme proper—phrases notable for one long chord followed by a pair of two identical short ones—in the Mephistopheles movement of the Faust Symphony. The strings first accompany this menacing theme with quiet trills, and next build a sinuous chromatic line around it. The opening motif generates the livelier transition material, the last much calmer section of which Liszt marked 'Pleurs, angoisse' ('Tears, anguish'). The tonality has ranged quite widely from the initial E minor by this stage, but a recitative introduced by piano and cello brings us to the second theme proper, in the traditional relative major, and to material which Liszt would recall in as late a work as the Valse oubliée No 3 of 1883. The recitative is fully incorporated into this theme before the livelier tempo Vivo is reached—effectively the codetta, which Liszt marks 'Raillerie'—and a full close in G major is reached. The development immediately moves to E flat, concentrating upon the first theme and leading to a cadential recitative where the introduction is recalled. When the orchestra reappears we are at the recapitulation, but the order of events is somewhat altered. The earlier transition material is first, followed by the opening motif from piano and orchestra. The first theme now appears in E major, and the tempo increases. The cello motif is now incorporated into the first thematic group before a further increase in tempo brings the second subject material, transformed anon into the coda, with just a brief recall of the first theme in the last four bars.

Coachella's first weekend may have thrown more fabulous Kate Bosworth, Diane Kruger and Rihanna-related outfits our way than a heavy Paris FROW, and we're duly grateful for such vivacious festival inspiration early on a dreary London Monday in April, but waaay before the festival/fashion show began and the celebrities pitched up in their luxe Winnebagos, style bloggers the world over had been furiously documenting the outfits they were planning to wear. And if they weren't attending the big fash-off in the desert, then the anticipation of this legendary event was enough to inspire some good looks.
A Go Go Fashion's Jennifer Humprey and friends definitely do Coachella in style!
Scroll through our top ten above and you'll notice that in line with Coachella's A-list crowd, there are two style routes a girl can take: boho or rock. Middle ground doesn't seem to exist and it's all about going for either look full throttle. Fringing, floppy hats, round sunnies and anything with a '70s vibe falls into the first camp of boho. And as a cheeky 2012 addition we've spotted enough cowboy boots kicking around to warrant rumours of a revival. On the rockers team you'll find micro ripped shorts, bomber jackets, shirts tied around waists, rock tees and lots and lots of denim and more than a nod to the '90s.
So, who gets your vote? Let us know below!

The comedian Ed McMahon once said "God invented whiskey to prevent the Irish from ruling the world". Round these parts, we take that as a compliment
Some drinks are easy to trace. Tea comes from leaves; picked and dried on vast plantations. Wine brings to mind dry, crumbling soil, big fat grapes hanging heavy on the vine, and we're told as children that milk makes its way to breakfast from generous herds that roam grassy plains.
Whiskey, though, is where the mystery lies.
The Water of Life
At the back of most of our minds, there are hints of how uisce beatha (the Water of Life) begins its journey to our glass. There's something vague about oats, a nagging image of big copper vats, and that cosy scene in a dimly lit cellar where wooden casks collect dust and barely balance on each other.
Outside of those snapshots, we're in the dark.
The liquid scientists at a certain Westmeath distillery are the light.
For a distillery that claims to be the oldest of its kind in the country, you'd imagine that history is an important word at Kilbeggan. And you'd be right.
A sip of the past
Some of the "big copper pots" (pot stills) have been working here for 180 years. The mill wheel, brought back to its former glory just last year, is a slow spinning Catherine wheel of red; swooping and sloshing into a foaming Brosna River. In 2017, the drink itself will have been in production for 260 years.
It's rare that you get to taste something that has taken over two-and-a-half centuries to perfect.
A word of advice for that first sip – let it linger.
Taste test
Rachel Quinn at Kilbeggan Distillery has a useful metaphor to describe the drink that has made the town a place of liquid pilgrimage.
"Like most Irish people, Kilbeggan is easygoing and approachable, but with its own distinctive style."
There you have a clue to the charm of whiskey – it has a character.
This isn't a mouthful of mass-produced plonk; hands have felt the barley, noses have been lowered into the pot. Today's Kilbeggan has reached us through years of dedication.
"On the nose, it's clean, fresh, hints of citrus, honey, lemon - a little grainy," explains Rachel. "To taste, it has a traditional smooth Irish whiskey flavour, the smoothness as it goes down the throat and all of the flavours you get on the nose. And the finish... long, smooth and satisfying."
The great debate
Football, the weather, hurling, politics, TV, the weather again – there's plenty to debate at the pub. One particular topic of conversation has endured over generations: Is adding water to whiskey sacrilege or sense?
While we have Rachel's attention, we dare to ask:
"Yes, there's much debate on this. As far as we are concerned, it's a complete personal preference! Our Master Distillery Noel Sweeney enjoys his Kilbeggan with a little water, as he says a little water helps to open the nose of the whiskey."
It will take another 250 years to find an end to that particular debate.
If it does, we reckon Kilbeggan's wheel will still be turning.
Whiskey Chasers
Where else on the island of Ireland can you follow your nose and find whiskey? Here's where:
Bushmills Whiskey Distillery, County Antrim
A home to allied soldiers during WWII and offering accommodation that is the very definition of traditional, a tumbler of whiskey and a turf fire in this place is the perfect way to top off a day on the Causeway Coast. Oh, and the distillery here is over 400 years old.
The Jameson Whiskey experience Midleton, County Cork and Dublin City
Jamseson is a byword for great Irish whiskey and the same is to be said of their distillery tours. The mixing debate gets a make-over in their Dublin home where tours end with a selection of whiskey cocktails, but if it's Cork you get the full package of singers, dancers and late night craic (they make a wicked Irish Coffee in the Malt House there). Also, in the year of The Gathering Ireland 2013, anyone with the surname Jameson is admitted free to both experiences.

Jorge Bolet – His earliest recordings
APR6009 for the price of 1 — Download only
Prokofiev: Piano Concertos Nos 2 & 3
CDA66858 To be superseded by CDH55440
Movement 1: Andantino Allegretto
Movement 2: Scherzo: Vivace
Movement 3: Intermezzo: Allegro moderato
Movement 4: Finale: Allegro tempestoso
Prokofiev's use of tonality was individual. It may have sprung from Scriabin, in that Prokofiev used it in the manner of synaesthesia, finding relationships between colour and sound. In this Prokofiev was not alone, certainly in the first fifteen years of the twentieth century, but his was not a neurasthenic, sensual art: his music could be vigorous and resolute, as in the concluding movements of the Second Concerto.
Now follows a brilliantly virtuosic Scherzo, marked 'Vivace': a brief, yet hectic, 187-bar eruption in which the soloist plays throughout in octaves without a moment's respite (music which clearly influenced, and not for the only time in Prokofiev's output, the young William Walton). This Scherzo may be the first appearance of such a demand on a soloist—playing a movement from first note to last, without a single rest—in the history of concerto writing, yet tonally, being in D minor, the movement reinforces the home key of the work in traditional terms. In other ways there is an almost Mahlerian intensity to this music, and even more so in the Intermezzo, which inhabits a similar world to the Nachtstücken in Mahler's Seventh Symphony as the same time as seeming to be, in its solo writing, a descendant of Schumann's 'Prophet Bird', and additionally, in its grotesqueries, looking towards the ferocity of Prokofiev's own Scythian Suite of 1914/5.
The Finale is echt Prokofiev, a power-house of brilliant ideas, transfigured by a haunting tune (from his childhood?), which are combined, after another glance at Rachmaninov's Third Concerto, in virtuosic cascades to bring to a close a distinctive and magnificent concerto which could have been written by no other composer.
The concerto was first performed in Pavlovsk on 5 September 1913 with the composer as soloist. The reception was mixed, as Prokofiev recalled: 'Half the audience hissed and the other half applauded'. These views were echoed in the press.

This is such a moving story. The photos and docs are incredible. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome photo of the tombstone. I think that is the only tombstone I've seen with a statue on it.

Category: Sightseeing
Season 3 starts April 15, 2013
Toronto's newest and tallest attraction has adventure lovers taking a walk OUTSIDE – around the circumference of the roof! So, do you dare to test your limits and experience the thrill of a lifetime?
EdgeWalk is CN Tower's most thrilling attraction in its 35 year history, and the first of its kind in North America. It is the world's highest full circle hands-free walk on a 5 ft (1.5 m) wide ledge encircling the top of the Tower's main pod, 356m/1168ft (116 storeys) above the ground. Visitors walk in groups of six, while attached to an overhead safety rail via a trolley and harness system. Trained EdgeWalk guides will encourage participants to push their personal limits, allowing them to lean back over Toronto with nothing but air and breathtaking views of Lake Ontario beneath them.
Visit the EdgeWalk site for more information and to book your adventure today!
ROM Walks
One of the greatest ways to explore the city is walking at street level through Toronto's neighbourhoods. Guided walking tours are offered for free by ROMwalks every Wednesday evening and Sunday afternoon from May through October. Tour leaders from the Royal Ontario Museum's (ROM) Department of Museum Volunteers present thoroughly researched guided tours through some of the city's most distinctive neighbourhoods, visit historic landmarks and illuminate the architectural and historical significance of Toronto's building.
All ROMwalks are free and no reservations are needed, with the exception for ROMwalk Plus walks.

It's always harder to wire your home for audio/video or automation systems if the walls are already up and sealed. And the way new construction is these days, chances are your home falls under the category of "existing" and its walls aren't open to the studs for convenient wiring runs.
If you're a multimedia hound who wants to access PC-stored or web music, videos and more throughout your house, you could go the wireless way and keep your fingers crossed that everything keeps working without skipping a beat. You can also take advantage of the electrical wiring that's already been established in your home and turn traditional outlets into part of a network.
The latter is what Plaster Networks has been working to develop solutions for (and lately we've seen multiroom audio companies such as Russound and NuVo leaning to as well in "no new wires" solutions). The manufacturer offers its PLN3 Ethernet powerline adapters to deliver reliable and cost-effective networking—and Plaster also mixed in the capability for you to remotely manage and configure the home network.
These PLN3 bricks serve up some zippy broadband, with up to 200Mbps PHY rates (and equivalent Ethernet rates up to 100Mbps) via powerline, based on the HomePlug AV standard to network your Ethernet-capable media devices. Based on the review by We Got Served (see unbox photo below), the dual Ethernet port units are pretty easy to install, connect and use.
The Plaster Networks solution also features IX2 powerline isolators to optimize performance by filtering noise and boosting network reliability. You can also use the Plaster Networks Service with the PLN3 adapters to tap into the throughput capacity of your powerline network instantly through a standard browser and see just how speedy things are working.
Look for the PLN3 adapters on the company's website, at $149.95 for a set of two ($96.95 apiece). The IX2 isolators are $24.95.

FINALIST: Best Kitchen
Careful attention was paid to integrating A/V into this kitchen remodel, as both homeowners were passionate about cooking, and used this space for a main gathering and social area.
So custom electronics pro Sensory Environment Design cooked up some nifty solutions to keep A/V out of the way while delivering impact and everyday conveniences.
"The original design had located the TV in the corner above the desk area on an articulating mount," says SED's Shane Seira. "After some on-site analysis and meetings with both the designer and homeowners, we suggested to move the TV above the espresso machine to maximize the line of sight to the TV from all parts of the kitchen and dining room. [Builder] Authentic Construction had the cabinet designed so the only thing you see is the screen, which makes for a very clean and polished look."
Sound for the space is powered by an Audio Control Architect 861 multi-channel amp and sent through Jamo 6.5K4 speakers in the kitchen and James 31-CS speakers in the adjacent dining room.
Multiple video sources are available in the kitchen including his and her cable boxes, music and video from an AppleTV (all of which are located in the main rack in the basement), and a Denon DVD-3800BDCI Blu-ray player (located in the adjacent hallway closet).
An AMX 5200i touchpanel that docks in an in-wall docking station conveniently provides all the control functions. From this touchpanel the homeowners have the ability to control all of their home technology, including audio and video, lights, temperature, and security.
"Or they can simply use it to create the perfect mood for all of there entertaining needs," says Seira.

In perhaps one of the most Bidenesque moments ever, the Corvette-loving real Vice President of the United States Joe Biden called out the fake Trans-Am-loving version of himself from The Onion, who at this moment is giving a real fake iAMA on Reddit. If you're from 1990 and are browsing Jalopnik through a wormhole on your Gateway computer that last sentence makes no sense to you.
Where to begin?
Vice President Joe Biden is hilarious in that he has a sense of humor and that he has, on the relative scale of Vice Presidents, an irregular sense of propriety.
Satirical news empire The Onion created their own, slightly exaggerated version of Joe Biden who is just like your black sheep uncle in that he gets kicked out of Dave & Buster's and drives a Bitchin' Trans-Am.
That satirical Biden is doing an Ask Me Anything on reddit to promote his Amazon single.
In response to the fake Joe Biden once again insisting that he loves Trans-Ams, the real VP reminded everyone that he actually prefers Corvettes.
Q for @reddit AMA with my @theonion pal: A Trans-Am? Ever look under the hood of a Corvette? #imavetteguy –VP twitter.com/VP/status/2923…— Office of VP Biden (@VP) January 18, 2013

R.I.P. Randy "Macho Man" Savage — The Baseball Slugger
As I'm sure a lot people were, I was a huge fan of The "Macho Man" Randy Savage, the pro wrestler, growing up as a kid, especially during his time in WCW. Even when the umm...sport? reached new lows in the late 90s, Savage made it entertaining with his larger than live personality and his outlandish Slim Jim commercials. Unfortunately as many of you have probably already heard, Savage passed away this morning at the age of 58 after crashing his vehicle into a tree following a heart attack.
So where does this all fit in? In his past life, well before the squared circle, Savage (real name Randy Poffo) was a baseball player with dreams of making it to the big leagues. While he never quite got there, he sure did get close.
In 1971, at the ripe age of 18 Poffo made his debut as an outfielder with the Gulf Coast League Cardinals (the Rookie League affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals). In 63 at-bats Poffo hit .286 with two home runs. The Macho Man returned to the GCL Cardinals for a second go around in 1972 and put up similar numbers. In 168 at-bats Poffo hit .274 with four home runs and even flashed a little speed with four stolen bases which matched his career-high.
His best season in affiliated ball by far came in 1973 when he tore up Rookie level pitching with the GCL Red Birds by hitting .344 in 61 at-bats before getting called up to Single-A for the first time as a 20 year-old. I'm sure his reaction was something along the lines of "Ohhh....Yeah!".
Unfortunately, Poffo's production dropped off upon being promoted to the Orangeburg Cardinals and was cut loose by the team.
In 1974, Poffo latched onto the Tampa Tarpons, the Rookie league affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds. However, he struggled hitting just .232 before hanging up his cleats and ultimately leaving the game. The rest...well the rest is history. Who would have thought that a little known minor leaguer would go on one day to headline sold-out arenas alongside the likes of Hulk Hogan and Sting?
Those wishing to share thoughts with Randy's family can send a message to the following email address: email@example.com

I would like to be able to do the following when posting links on Twitter:
"25 Excellent Typography Tools for the Serious Designer http://bit.ly/2RexZP @rtm #typo #fonts #tools #design"
I love RTM's ability to tag my notes by adding the "#" symbol but currently, you could only add notes via Twitter by DMing the tweet.
It's a bit tedious because in order to give the tweet to my followers and myself, I would have to tweet it TWICE.
This means I'd have to post "25 Excellent Typography Tools for the Serious Designer http://bit.ly/2RexZP" to my public timeline.
Then DMing it to myself again, example, "d rtm 25 Excellent Typography Tools for the Serious Designer http://bit.ly/2RexZP #typo #fonts #tools #design" to be able to add it to RTM.
Sorry for bringing up Evernote again into the RTM Forums but Evernote already supports this and it helps keeping notes a lot faster to my Evernote account.
However, there's one flaw in Evernote's connection with Twitter, it does not allow hash-tagging to add tags to your Evernote Notebook.
This is why I prefer RTM, it ALLOWS HASH-TAGGING and saves me time from adding tags later on like in Evernote's desktop client for Mac or Windows.

I'm not thinking "OMG, gotta prove that DW tanking is inferior!" I find the idea of emotional attachment to a particular way of holding weapons kind of silly. If tanking with a fishing pole were ideal, you'd find me out dutifully grinding Kalu'ak rep. But until it is superior, you're not going to see me zoning into raids ready to fish (unless we're slumming it in SSC or ZG, I guess).
We need to clearly quantify the advantages and disadvantages of dual-wield tanking.
The disadvantages and opportunity costs are clear: you will generate more parry-hasted incoming attacks until you are fully expertise capped, you need to be frost, you need to sink at least three talent points into propping it up, and you'll need two tanking weapons at least one of which is slow. (If you're about to reply to say either "Nuh uh!" or "Those don't matter!" stop and keep reading, because we've got about a page and a half of that already.)
The advantages are [?]. Please fill in this blank, with math preferably.
Nobody here (well, not me anyway) is yet saying "DW tanking isn't viable" or "DW tanking is just plain dumb." I am saying that DW tanking has a clearly identified cost in increased incoming damage, as well as a handful of other costs. What does that currency buy?
Also, parting shot:
Using my own math, we can show that DW tanking results in ~2.7 extra parried attacks per minute, assuming no expertise and a post-3.0.8 rotation. (That's the 18.2 extra parryable attacks multiplied by the 15% parry rate everyone figures bosses have.) The one extra attack per minute assumes a reasonable amount (I forget exactly how much) of expertise and the "Each parry is a 40% speed-up" number, and is Sartorri's estimate. It's a reasonable one, assuming my math is good and the tank has two slow weapons.Using his own math, we can show that DW tanking results in 1 extra parry per minute.

Itachi is the man and literally, I mean every time he talks people around him listen, and I mean everytime. Most of his quotes are just words of a genious, after reading the manga so many times I have noticed that everytime he talks even arrogant and stubborn people like Sasuke listens.... Itachi could change people with just words and that is fact.
Example: Persuading Naruto not to over exert himself, his friendship quote to Kabuto and many more!!!!

With the excitement building ahead of 2013's visit to Australia, we decided to pump up the volume by bringing you our second British & Irish Lions watch!
Every three weeks or so Planet Rugby will update its leaderboard for who should pack their bags, who should keep the diary open and who should stock the fridge with a few beers, pizzas and ice creams for soaking up the tour on the couch, as the most coveted of selections fast approaches.
We must stress that long-term injuries have been taken into account for our calls. However, those nearing a return to action are accommodated.
Here we go - make sure to give your feedback.
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: Alex Goode appears to have won the 15 shirt for England ahead of Mike Brown, putting him in the frame for the trip to Australia this summer. Starting all four games this November could prove to be the making of him. Wales full-back Leigh Halfpenny has continued to dazzle with both hands and feet, making him a certainty.
On standby: Rob Kearney, Mike Brown, Lee Byrne
Best make other plans next June: Ben Foden, Stuart Hogg, Rob Miller, Delon Armitage
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: Alex Cuthbert and Tim Visser continue to cross the whitewash with enough consistency to warrant starting spots. Wales wing George North has work to do but should travel, along with Tommy Bowe. Class is permanent as they say.
On standby: Chris Ashton, Andrew Trimble, Ugo Monye
Best make other plans next June: Simon Zebo, Keith Earls, Charlie Sharples, Christian Wade, David Strettle
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: The area of both greatest depth and intense debate. Brian O'Driscoll's absence from the November Internationals is a setback. Manu Tuilagi is a must, whilst Brad Barritt gets a chance due to Jonathan Joseph's injury. Welsh double act Jonathan Davies and Jamie Roberts will travel with Scott Williams a possible centre/wing.
On standby: Scott Williams, James Hook, Anthony Allen, Ashley Beck, Jonathan Joseph, Matt Scott, Owen Farrell
Best make other plans next June: James Downey, Dom Waldouck, Paddy Wallace, Gordon D'Arcy, Jordan Turner-Hall, Fergus McFadden, Billy Twelvetrees
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: The number one contender? Still Jonathan Sexton, but there is competition. Toby Flood has responded to the form of Freddie Burns with some excellent play of his own. The Welsh battle continues but for the moment, Rhys Priestland holds the slightest of edges. Despite returning to Gloucester, Burns joins our third tier.
On standby: Dan Biggar, Jonny Wilkinson
Best make other plans next June: Ruaridh Jackson, Ronan O'Gara, Danny Cipriani, Charlie Hodgson, Freddie Burns
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: Mike Phillips is battling for his Wales shirt with Tavis Knoyle but should travel. Danny Care has been excellent for Harlequins with Ben Youngs doing enough to also make the plane. That leaves Greig Laidlaw as the final traveller.
On standby: Conor Murray , Lee Dickson, Tavis Knoyle
Best make other plans next June: Eoin Reddan, Richard Wigglesworth, Lloyd Williams
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: We have a new contender who slipped through our radar last time out. Kelly Brown has been consistently good for Saracens and a big November could make him a shoo-in due to his ability to play six and eight. Nick Easter drops out due to his non call-up while Jamie Heaslip remains. Toby Faletau's start means he moves up.
On standby: Thomas Waldrom, David Denton, Ben Morgan, Toby Faletau
Best make other plans next June: Peter O'Mahony, Jordan Crane, Nick Easter, Andy Powell, Richard Baxter
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: The Lions' strongest area over the past 12 months but suddenly there are injury concerns at flank. Three key players, Stephen Ferris, Dan Lydiate and Sean O'Brien are currently on the sideline so at the moment we have Chris Robshaw and Sam Warburton, with Ferris and O'Brien still making the list due to their obvious class.
On standby: Justin Tipuric, Ross Rennie, Tom Croft, Dan Lydiate
Best make other plans next June: Phil Dowson, John Barclay, Alasdair Strokosch, Chris Henry, Rob McCusker, Tom Wood, Ryan Jones, Iain Henderson
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: We stick with the experienced Paul O'Connell and Alun-Wyn Jones while we expect Courtney Lawes to recover and be peaking in the New Year. Geoff Parling remains in the mix while Jim Hamilton busts his way onto our standby list.
On standby: Donnacha Ryan, Richie Gray, Nathan Hines, Mouritz Botha, Jim Hamilton
Best make other plans next June: Bradley Davies, Al Kellock, Donncha O'Callaghan, Joe Launchbury
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: Luck is most definitely on young Tom Youngs' side after Dylan Hartley's injury sees the Leicester Tiger become England's first choice. If he can make a statement this month then maybe he will be a bolter. Rory Best is also currently on the treatment table so Leinster's Richardt Strauss has a chance to shine in green/black.
On standby: Tom Youngs, Richard Hibbard, Ross Ford
Best make other plans next June: Sean Cronin, Matthew Rees
Kiss the wife and kids goodbye: Much like the Ferris situation, we look past the month-long injury of Adam Jones and keep him in the squad due to his quality. Dan Cole is his rival for the three jersey while Cian Healy and Gethin Jenkins are our looseheads. Keep an eye on England's new loosehead Mako Vunipola this month as we feel five props will be taken.
On standby: Tom Court, Alex Corbisiero, Mike Ross
Best make other plans next June: Euan Murray, Andrew Sheridan, Allan Jacobsen, Geoff Cross

Alexa Chung's wardrobe is the envy of girls the world over, but as she told the Telegraph this week her fashion rules are really kind of simple. Renowned for her to ability to mix classic pieces with the latest trends off the runway and make the look fresh with a retro twist, it seems that like the rest of us Chung needs a little assistance to decide what to wear. From following a fashion hero to going solo, discover the star's style advice...
1. Pick your fashion icon wisely
Alexa has long been known as a fan of sixties star Jane Birkin, with whom she shares in common not only an off-beat sense of style, but the fact that she's had a designer handbag named after her. It turns out that current red carpet favourite Diane Kruger also peaks Chung's interest and we can see that the three women share a brave and at times unconventional approach to getting all dressed up.
2. Experiment with your 'do
When Alexa's bob became more famous than Anna Wintour's, she could easily have got stuck in a hair rut. However, ruts are not the brunette beauty's style. She's been dark chocolate, ombre, with fringe, without a fringe, straight, curly, wispy, tousled and just about every other style in between and for that effort we salute her (and her hairstylist George Northwood). Find out how to recreate Alexa's hair looks here.
3. Don't wear the same outfit twice!
That's not to say you can't wear the same item twice - that would be wasteful and go against Alexa's ethical principles - but try not to wear it in the same arrangement. Chung says "I never revisit the same item in the same outfit twice, as even swapping a shirt under your jumper can update the look."
4. Shop alone
Very wise advice indeed. You avoid having to traipse around shops that you don't like and you wont get cajoled into buying something that doesn't suit you by an overzealous companion. You wouldn't want to go shopping with Alexa either as she confessed: "I always go shopping alone, as I don't like getting tied down by someone um-ing and ah-ing over a shoe. I'll start off being polite but soon run out of patience, and say things like, 'They make your feet look massive.'" Harsh!
5. Experiment with your staple items
While not averse to wearing the latest runway creations by the likes of Erdem and Christopher, Alexa knows what she likes and she knows what suits her. Take dungarees for example, a total Chung staple, but never boring because she'll wear them in different ways from long and rolled up to micro mini, with heels to without heels and over a jumper to under a cardigan.
