Mason, Karen Oppenheim. "Determinants of Child Care Ideals among Mothers of Preschool Aged Children." Journal of Marriage and the Family, 51, no.3 (August 1989): 593-603.
The extent to which care by a child's parents is considered ideal at different preschool ages is explored with data collected in 1986 for a probability sample of 1,302 mothers of preschool-aged children living in the greater Detroit metropolitan area. Women's current use of child care, marital and employment status, income, youngest child's age, gender role ideology, religion, religiosity, education, race, proximity to relatives, and place of residence are all hypothesized to affect child care ideals. The data show that a majority view parental care as ideal at all preschool ages, with almost one-third of the women taking this stance even when they are constrained from naming the child's mother as the caregiver. The strongest correlates of preferring parental care are living with a husband or male partner, being out of the labor force, espousing a traditional gender role ideology, and attending religious services frequently. Income, religion, education, and proximity to relatives are unrelated to child care ideals. The results are interpreted to indicate that child care ideals are part of a broader ideology of family and gender that reflects women's adult experiences.

Mental health miscues: Silly comparison in Concord
Earlier this week, some such advocates held a news conference to bemoan the level of health services currently being offered in New Hampshire. Fair enough. Our new governor and Legislature have their hands full with competing demands and only so many squeaky wheels are going to get much grease this year. Stating their case was appropriate.
But in attempting to make the case, a chief spokesman showed amazing insensitivity to those for whom he claimed to speak.
Ken Norton, executive director of the state chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, appeared to be tying all people with mental problems with the Dec. 14 school massacre in Newtown, Conn.
"It should be as easy and as quick to get a mental health appointment as it is to purchase a firearm," pontificated Norton.
Besides being beyond silly, that statement is hurtful to untold individuals who are no more likely to do such a thing than are the rest of us, but whose feelings are often much more fragile. One would think an advocate for them would be particularly careful to differentiate the one from the many.
Comparing a private purchase, be it of a gun or a TV set, to the problems with public funding for low-income mentally ill is ridiculous and counterproductive.
Norton and company would have been better advised to focus on what the state has already promised in terms of critical care and what it has shockingly failed to deliver. It has been months since the Lynch administration promised to add 12 beds to the New Hampshire Hospital. At Monday's news conference, it was revealed that this won't happen until July.
That is not acceptable, said Norton. On that, we can agree.

Xavier, Cincinnati to find home for hoops rivalryBy JOE KAY
the associated press | November 20,2013(AP Photo/Al Behrman)
Cincinnati head coach Mick Cronin reacts to a play in the second half of an NCAA college basketball game against Appalachian State, Saturday, Nov. 16, 2013, in Cincinnati. Cincinnati won 77-49.CINCINNATI Xavier and Cincinnati want to keep their annual basketball rivalry, but school officials havent decided whether to play at a neutral site or return to campus after a brawl nearly sidelined the series.
Cincinnati athletic director Whit Babcock said in an interview Tuesday that the schools want to maintain the annual game, which is one of the citys sports highlights.
There was talk about ending the rivalry two years ago after a brawl erupted with 9.4 seconds left on Xaviers court. Four players from each team were suspended and video replays of the punching and shoving received national attention.
The game had alternated campuses each year, but it was moved to a downtown arena for two seasons after the brawl. Cincinnati won 60-45 last year in a game that was amicable. The schools will see how the game goes on Dec. 14 before deciding the site.
Long-term, what weve talked about is certainly continuing to play the game, Babcock said. Neither one of us has a desire to end that series.
The big question is where the heck are you going to play, and that we havent ironed out. Weve left it at, `Hey, we want to see how this second year goes down there.
Babcock said the schools presidents and trustees will be involved in the decision. The campuses are separated by only 2½ miles, and theyve played each other 80 times.
The 2011 game on Xaviers court was called after the fight erupted with the Musketeers ahead 76-53. Last year, there were no hostilities or technical fouls in the first year at a downtown arena that seats 16,264. The crowd of 14,528 was nearly equally divided between Xavier and Cincinnati fans.
Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin said he liked how the atmosphere at the downtown arena was much less acrimonious on a neutral site. Xavier coach Chris Mack has said hed like to see the game return to the campuses at some point.
At the end of the day its just a game, but its a pretty darn important one for this city, Babcock said. Right now weve just said, `Hey, in general we want to keep playing. We want to see the game this year and then well sit down and talk.

Robert Booker: Post-Civil War life detailed in paper
Twenty-one years after the Civil War had ended, Knoxville was trying to get back to its routine. Its population of 5,000 during the war (1861-1865) had seen some 25,000 Confederate troops and an equal number of Union troops camping, fighting and marauding all through the area. It had seen its schools, churches and other buildings confiscated for military use. Much of the time, the Knoxville City Council could not meet for lack of a quorum.
But the Knoxville Chronicle of March 26, 1886, reported great jubilation at City Hall with the finding of a huge amount of cash in the office of City Recorder Nelson. City Clerk Henry Moses could not believe his eyes as he stared at the stack of greenbacks that totaled $1,200 they found in the vault. Never before had they seen so much cash in the City Treasury before.
As the word of the great find leaked, city fathers began to make plans for the great surplus. Mayor Peter Kern thought it should go to the school fund. Col. Young wanted it to help pay the police force. Alderman Barry said it should go to a charitable institution. But after the excitement waned and they took a closer look at the crisp new bills, they found them to be Confederate bank notes and greenbacks.
Almost three months earlier, County Physician Dr. W.M. Rutherford made his report to the Knox County Court on the condition of prisoners held by the county. His statement recorded by the Chronicle of Jan. 5, 1886, said, "I found the sanitary condition of your jail reasonably good, having only a few sick within, while that of your workhouse was not so good, being crowded and filthy. Quite a number of the convicts are afflicted with rheumatism and fever. Two females died of consumption.
"I suggested to the workhouse superintendent that he clean up the filth around the prison, which he promptly did. A new method of sewage was instituted by sinking the external cesspools. In about six weeks from the time I took charge of the prisons, I had them clear of the sick. You had in your prisons this past year 728 prisoners; 345 of them were males."
The city schools of 1886 seem to have been doing just fine after 10 years of operation by the city. The June 9, 1886, Chronicle discussed the examinations held for the white students at Peabody, Hampden Sidney, Mechanicsville and Park Street schools. It also described the exams at the two black schools, Austin and Fairview. The examinations were in spelling, reading, arithmetic, geography, calisthenics, etc. Subject matter was similar in all schools with the exception of " 'the drill,' in which wooden clubs are used, and the boys feel proud as they march along or go through the manual of arms."
The Peabody School had 270 students in grades three and four. Hampden Sidney had 480 girls in grades three through five. Mechanicsville (Ninth Ward School) had 368 students in grades one through six. Park Street had 125 students. Fairview School had 71 students in grades one through four. Austin had 440 students in grades one through eight. The principals at Hampden Sidney and Fairview were women.
The reporter of the school activities said, "This report would be incomplete were this reporter to fail in mentioning the fact that there is one mastermind which is entitled more than all others to the credit of placing the public schools of our city in such excellent condition. Knoxville people are indebted to the able and efficient and active Superintendent Prof. Albert Ruth."

A Kochi report "[Union Home Minister Shivraj] Patil warns disruptive forces" (October 20, 2008) incorrectly referred to Mr. V.S. Achuthanandan (in the fourth paragraph) as Minister. Mr. Achuthanandan is the Chief Minister of Kerala. (The error was in some editions.)
A sentence in the sixth paragraph of a report "Medha Patkar on fast in Mumbai" (October 20, 2008) was "Heirs of lands for the Tata dam in Maval and Mulshi talukas, acquired as per the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (LAQ), are awaiting their dues even after a 100 years", leading to queries on the figure 100 years. The staff reporter clarifies that the Tata dam project was constructed during the British Raj. The land acquisition process began somewhere in 1918. Land owners were reportedly displaced. They did not get their dues then, and even now, their heirs are fighting to get compensation/dues.
The caption of a standalone PTI photograph "Experiencing the Taj" ("Newscape", October 20, 2008) was "Lifelike Art: Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden touches appreciatively the frescoes at the Taj Mahal in Agra on Sunday …." A reader points out that according to the OED, frescoes are paintings done rapidly in watercolour on wet plaster on a wall or ceiling so that the colours penetrate the plaster and become fixed as it dries. In this case, the crown princess is examining the marble sculptures on the wall.
A report "UPA government criticised for 'inaction' in Orissa" (October 19, 2008) referred to the Archbishop of Delhi as Archbishop Vincent Concession. It should have been Archbishop Vincent M. Concessao, as given in the caption of the accompanying photograph.

The thing is, you can be a big star anyplace else in the world. That gets you in the door. What you do once you get here is a whole different ballgame. He's no different than anybody else once he walks through the door of the Performance Center." - Triple H on how Kenta Kobayashi will be treated in WWE
July 17, 2014
When LeiD Tapa was released by TNA back in March, there were rumors that she might be a candidate to join the WWE developmental program. However, the company has shown very little interest thus far. In fact, she has not even been invited for a tryout yet. While some are citing her lack of experience, which she is trying to fix by working with OVW, many are pointing out that WWE has had no qualms with signing female performers who have absolutely no experience in the wrestling industry before.
July 8, 2014
While a lot of independent wrestlers are hoping for just a chance to do a tryout with WWE, Cody Hall is on the other side of the fence. The son of Scott Hall has turned down the company several times, stating that he does not want to join their developmental program until he establishes himself on the indies and internationally. Hall wants to achieve things on his own merit.
June 5, 2014
Rumors have it that WWE has been signing some of the best international talent to their developmental program. Names like Kevin Steen, Prince Devitt and Kenta Kobayashi have surfaced as potential candidates to join the company later on this year. Unfortunately, though, WWE will not be bringing in Sarita, long considered one of the best international female performers in the business. She received a tryout with the company back in March but no contract has been offered.
June 4, 2014
While the possibility looked bleak initially, it appears that WWE is set to sign Kevin Steen to a developmental contract. Optimism for his signing was not very high after he received a tryout with the company. However, someone in the WWE front office has convinced management to give the former ROH champion a chance, despite his physical appearance not being up to the company's standards.
May 19, 2014
Earlier this year, the hot rumors were that Kenta Kobayashi was going to be signing with WWE after the Japanese star came to the United States and did a tryout for the company. The industry was a bit shocked recently when it was announced that Kobayashi was leaving Pro Wrestling NOAH, his longtime home. The belief is that he no longer wants to work the physically demanding style in Japan.
May 8, 2014
While a lot of fans in the United States are hoping that he ends up joining WWE, there are rumors floating around that Kenta Kobayashi could be signing with New Japan instead. A lot of speculation has arisen since his contract with Pro Wrestling NOAH expired earlier this week. Kobayashi did do a tryout for WWE earlier in the year.
May 1, 2014
Back in January, a buzz was created when it appears that Kenta Kobayashi was going to be signing with WWE since he worked a tryout for the company. However, the company never gave him a contract, and he Kobayashi returned to Japan. Pro Wrestling NOAH has just announced, however, that their longtime star is leaving the promotion, which has started rumors about Kobayashi finally joining WWE.
April 30, 2014
Tom Latimer recently had a tryout match with TNA, and he feels confident enough to believe that he is going to be receiving a developmental contract with the company. This bit of news is made especially interesting because he is married to Ashley Flair, the daughter of the legendary Ric Flair and a developmental wrestler in WWE NXT.
April 25, 2014
"I had met Jim Ross and Jerry Brisco before I was even in college and they always told me to get your degree first and then we'll give you a shot if you want to come try your hand with the WWE. I graduated in May 2006, flew out to Atlanta for a week to tryout, and by July 2006 I was signed and training in Atlanta. I took a little bit different path than most WWE superstars have taken. I'm one of the few superstars who have gone through all three of the developmental camps." - Jack Swagger reveals his path to the WWE developmental program
April 21, 2014
It has been a couple of weeks now since Kevin Steen was rumored to have done a tryout with WWE, and very little news have surfaced since then in regards to the situation. The belief is that the company will not be signing Steen at the moment. He seems to be doing just fine, however, as Steen continues to consistently be booked by ROH and the independent wrestling circuit.
April 18, 2014
"I never really wanted to go to WWE. The tryout there was awesome. It was really fun and I can't say enough good things and I learned a lot, but I told a few of the guys during the initial tryout with Eddie that this was not for me just because moving down to Orlando is not what I wanted to do and wrestling is not the only thing I want to do with my life. To give up everything and just live in that world is not my idea of a great life or a perfect life. TNA offered me to be able to wrestle with some of the best wrestlers in the world, I could be on television, I could go and entertain crowds but I could still come home and be Wes. I could be Davey, then I could be Wes. It was just better for me and I couldn't be happier in TNA it's been great." - Davey Richards on choosing TNA over WWE
April 14, 2014
Earlier this year, Shanna was given a tryout by TNA and many were under the belief that the independent wrestler was going to be signed by the company. While that has yet to happen, Shanna has let everyone know that she is still interested in showing up on Impact Wrestling some day. Dixie Carter has been signing several performers over the last few months.
March 16, 2014
Over the last couple of months, Joey Ryan has grown increasingly vocal about his tryout and dealings with WWE. While he does harbor some resentment towards Bill DeMott, he showed gratitude and respect towards William Regal, who asked him to move to Florida and work as a trainer in the developmental system for the company.
March 5, 2014
Earlier this year, it was reported that Kevin Steen, the longtime ROH star, would be doing a tryout for WWE, and it has now been confirmed that he will be doing so at the WWE Performance Center from March 24 to March 26. Several other independent wrestling stars are scheduled to be doing tryouts that week as well.
February 28, 2014
Despite having a lot of charisma, Joey Ryan was not signed to a developmental contract by WWE after his tryout match against Great Khali last year. He has now revealed that management informed him that they were not picking him up because he had recently left TNA. It was too soon for them to bring him on board, despite the fact that he would not be on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown for a while.
February 20, 2014
It has been a couple of weeks now since he was at the WWE Performance center, and it looks like a developmental contract will not be offered to Kenta Kobayashi. When he returned to Japan and downplayed the tryout, many were under the impression that the company was not interested in bringing the international star on board.
February 19, 2014
While everyone in the company is fully aware of his reputation as a performer on the independent wrestling circuit, WWE is said to be very curious as to what type of shape Kevin Steen will show up in for his tryout with the company. The belief is that if he does not show up in the best shape of his life, then management will more than likely pass on a contract.
February 15, 2014
Long viewed as one of the more talented performers on the independent wrestling circuit, it now appears that Kevin Steen will be getting his chance at a WWE contract. The former ROH heavyweight champion has been invited to do a tryout for the company. If all goes well, then he will join the developmental program.
February 13, 2014
While most fans have probably never even heard of him, Bobby Fulton did get a brief stint in WWE. It was during the summer of 1997 when he was given tryout matches against Tommy Rogers, whom he teamed with as the Fantastics. He stated that Jim Cornette used them to convince Vince McMahon to start a light heavyweight division.
February 8, 2014
A lot of eyes stay focused on the developmental program in WWE because that is usually where the next star will come from. The latest person to be viewed as the next one to be elevated to the main roster is Alexa Bliss. The diva has impressed management over the last couple of weeks, and some are even saying that she has moved past Ashley Flair in line. She is already ahead of Bayley and Sasha Banks at the moment.
October 29, 2014
Earlier this month, it was revealed that WWE pays their developmental wrestlers approximately $25,000 a year. It has now been discovered that the amount is only for the male performers. The divas in WWE NXT, such as Ashley Flair, Bayley and Sasha Banks, are paid $50,000 a year, which is twice as much. The reasoning behind that is because management feels that the girls have more expenses in maintaining their looks.
September 18, 2014
There are rumors floating around that a title change could be taking place in WWE NXT very soon. Bayley might be given the women's title during the middle part of September. Reports are floating around that Ashley Flair is on the verge of being given a promotion to the main roster in about a month, so she would need to drop the belt to someone else in developmental.
August 28, 2014
When WWE announced a tournament to crown a new Women's Champion in their developmental program, one of the names brought up as a potential champion was Bayley. Management is very high on her, and the belief was that she would be receiving an opportunity to prove herself in a featured role. That will not be happening now since Bayley was eliminated from the tournament by Sasha Banks this week.
May 2, 2014
Since she is gaining some popularity in WWE NXT, Bayley has become a name that wrestling fans are growing familiar with. As is usually the case with attractive females in the industry, fans have been searching for topless pictures of Bayley. While there are plenty of fake topless pictures floating around the internet, Bayley has never done any adult photo shoots.
May 1, 2014
One of the ideas being discussed right now is to have Ric Flair managing Ashley Flair in WWE NXT. With Paige being elevated to the main roster, management can now put more of the spotlight on Ashley, Sasha Banks and Bayley. Having the Nature Boy involved would help to increase interest from the audience, as he is still a beloved performer.
April 15, 2014
Since she is now the WWE Divas Champion, Paige will be dropping the WWE NXT Women's Championship soon. The top candidates at the moment are Ashley Flair and Sasha Banks. While some are pushing for management to put Bayley in the spot, the company feels that it would be better for business if she were to chase the title for a couple of months first.

A picture of Bayley, a WWE developmental diva, with Seiya Sanada, the current TNA X Division Champion, has surfaced on Twitter.
March 18, 2014
Scotty 2 Hotty spent some town down in WWE NXT this weekend, where the veteran performer made an appearance and helped to train some of the developmental wrestlers at the WWE Performance Center. He also posed for this picture with Bayley and posted it on Twitter.

Thus far, measurements and estimations of actual evapotranspiration (ET) from high-altitude grassland ecosystems in remote areas like the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau are still insufficient. To address these issues, a comparison between the results of the eddy covariance (EC) measurements and the estimates, considering the Katerji and Perrier (KP), the Todorovic (TD) and the Priestley–Taylor (PT) models, was carried out over an alpine grassland (38o03'1.7'' N, 100o 27' 26'' E; 3032 m a.s.l.) during the growing seasons in 2008 and 2009. The results indicated that the KP model after a particularly simple calibration gave the most effective ET values in different time scales, the PT model slightly underestimate ET at night and the TD model significantly overestimated ET at noon. In addition, the canopy resistance calculated by the TD model was completely different from that calculated using the inverted EC-measured data and the KP model, which may be due to some unrealistic assumptions made by the TD model. The KP parameters were a = 0.17 and b = 1.50 for the alpine grassland and appeared to be interannually stable. However, the PT parameter showed some interannual variations (α = 0.83 and 0.74 for 2008 and 2009, respectively). Therefore, the KP model was preferred to estimate the actual ET at both hourly and daily time scales. The PT model, being the simplest approach and field condition dependent, was recommended when available weather data were rare. On the contrary, the TD model always overestimated the actual ET and should be avoided in case of the alpine grassland ecosystems. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Sex Pistols Drop 'Holidays in the Sun' Video 35 Years Late
Only 35 years after the song was released, there's a genuine music video for the Sex Pistols' 1977 Never Mind the Bollocks single "Holidays in the Sun." According to Band Weblogs, the group's longtime documentarian Julien Temple edited the clip together using footage of their March 1977 trip to Berlin, "where the band had decamped for a few days to help escape media glare after their infamous sacking" from their label of nearly seven days, A&M Records.The song was, in fact, inspired by that same trip. Said John Lydon, via the "Track By Track" feature on the Pistols' site, "I loved Berlin. I loved the Wall and the insanity of the place. The communists looked in on the circus atmosphere of West Berlin, which never went to sleep, and that would be their impression of the West.
Watch Two Gallants' Triumphant 'My Love Won't Wait' Video
It's been five years since their last album, but Two Gallants make a triumphant return with the song and accompanying clip for "My Love Won't Wait." This fuzzed up delight of a folk-blues clanger hails from the San Fran duo's new long-player for ATO, The Bloom and the Blight, which dropped September 4 and is the group's first since parting ways with their longtime home, Saddle Creek.On the rise Los Angeles director Vice Cooler (Deerhoof, Peaches, Feistodon) is at the helm, Tyson Vogel in flannel and Adam Stephens rocking a G-Unit shirt as they do battle with a bunch of cloaked warlock types who seem intent on burying them in trash. Things begin to look bleak just as Stephens howls, "There's no escape!" but his partner has a trick up his sleeve. Two Gallants are currently on a headlining tour across North America.
Killers Livestream Snared by Bad Weather
As of this post, the Killers' American Express "Unstaged" performance is supposed to be live-streaming and in full swing, but the Werner Herzog-directed event isn't working so well. "Apologies, we're currently experiencing tech difficulties due to tornado warnings. Pls stay tuned for updates," AmEx tweeted as many viewers got a still image reading "Stay Tuned: Due to inclement weather, this camera is currently unavailable." There are major storms currently rolling through New York City, where the show is taking place.Before the stream went dead, we saw no signs of wild donkeys or bighorn sheep, but with Herzog behind the lens, you never know what'll happen. The camera strapped to drummer Ronnie Vannucci, Jr. is kinda nifty, and the LED panels lining the stage at New York's Paradise Theater are projecting images submitted by fans online.
Based (Rock) God? Lil B Goes Surf Pop for 'California Boy'
It's long been evident that Lil B is bigger than hip-hop, so it should come as no surprise that the Based God has blessed rock'n'roll with his presence at last. He's released a brand new song and accompanying video, dubbed "California Boy," and it's a garage surf-pop single that hails from an untitled upcoming rock album.The clip alternates between shots of B jamming with a three-piece and roaming the UC Berkeley campus with a young blonde who could have been the song's inspiration: "Every time I see those light blue eyes/ I start to think about you and I... Yeah, I look kinda strange but it's okay." Because at the end of the day, even the Based God is still "just a California Boy." One who doesn't use Auto Tune, as he proclaimed on Facebook.
Hear Bat For Lashes' Gotye-Channeling 'All Your Gold'
After making us wait three years to hear her third album, Bat for Lashes now has three new songs from next month's The Haunted Man in circulation. You've heard the dramatic "Laura" and the dreamy "Marilyn." Now it's time to meet "All Your Gold," the poppiest one of the bunch which, as Stereogum noticed as well, seems borrow a little bit of its bounce from Gotye's megahit "Somebody That I Used to Know." The spare electric plucking that opens the track eventually breaks into throbbing dance beat as Natasha Khan sings about wanting to be set free from a claustrophobic relationship with a good man. In fact, it could be a prequel to the hit that launched Kimbra's career. That's not to, ahem, paint Bat for Lashes into a corner — Khan has got her own thing going. See for yourself via the clip below, which pits the songs' ebb and flow against that of the actual ocean.
Is the Jeff Buckley Movie Starring Penn Badgley a Rom-Com?
At long last, thanks to The Hollywood Reporter, there's a full trailer for the upcoming Greetings From Tim Buckley, a biopic and (as we can now glean) indie rom-com starring Gossip Girl's Penn Badgley as the titular folk star's troubled singing son, Jeff Buckley. Yes, there's a lot to unpack in that last sentence, but the preview clip itself is pretty cut and dry.Musician living under his famous father's shadow is called upon to perform at a tribute to "the father he never knew." Along the way to "the concert that changed his life," he falls in love with a peppy girl who challenges his introvert tendencies. He eventually, as in real life, plays the hell out of that tribute and winds up with a career for himself, almost overnight. You pretty much get the entire movie in about three and a half minutes.
Watch Werner Herzog Grill the Killers About Vegas, Wild Donkeys
For a credit company, American Express has a shockingly reciprocal relationship with brilliant film folks. They've commissioned ads from Wes Anderson and Martin Scorsese, they've backed contests for the Tribeca film fest, and via current live-streaming concert series "Unstaged," they've been pairing bands with idiosyncratic directors. Thanks to this, we can now see a thing we never could've imagined: Werner Herzog interviewing the Killers about wild donkeys.Tonight, the Killers play New York's Paradise Theater for "Unstaged," and camera duties will be handled by Herzog, the strange mind behind Grizzly Man, Into the Abyss, and the unfortunately literal Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe. In honor of that, the man and the band teamed up for a seven-minute mini-doc which finds them touring the surreal landscapes of Las Vegas.
7,000 People Being Sued for Sharing Lacuna Coil Songs
Perhaps inspired by the final verse in the Ballad of Jammie Rasset, in which it was deemed fair to charge a mother of four $222,000 for allegedly sharing 24 songs, record label Century Media is going after more than 7,000 BitTorrent users for downloading and sharing music by pop-oriented metal groups Lacuna Coil and Iced Earth.According to the A.V. Club, the suit was filed by New Jersey lawyer Jay R. McDaniel, who hopes to change infringement precedent by charging groups of violators as collective "swarms" instead of going after individuals. His efforts so far have been thwarted as his actions risk sweeping up BitTorrent users who never traded Century's songs.But McDaniel is hedging. He's got 17 suits filed concurrently, and has plans to charge over 14,000 people when all's said and done. And he's not alone.
Stream Jason Collett's Folksy, Occupy-Inspired 'Reckon'
Don't let Jason Collett's soft touch fool you — the Toronto-based Broken Social Scene player is a powerful songwriter with a voice that cuts through whatever murk the week's piled about your head. His seventh album, Reckon, is plenty proof of what this man can do with his pipes, a guitar, and a little help from his friends (BSS's Kevin Drew stops by, as do Zeus, Basia Bulat, and Bahamas). Loss is the dominant theme, but these songs don't sulk — they're still transcendent, even though their politics are informed by the current economy and the love songs are, as Collett has said, "emotive reflections" of that same debt.
Watch Baron Von Luxxury's Sci-Fi 'Glass Candy' Video
Two days in California's arid and aptly named Death Valley is two days too long, but Baron Von Luxxury isn't the type to take half measures. The Los Angeles-based electro-pop lothario embodies the sort of character that Beck only took an album-length stab at circa Midnight Vultures, and his act, while playful, isn't exactly irreverent. The Baron's new LP The Last Seduction pays tribute to his dear, departed friend Theresa Duncan (she of the Scientology-related "Golden Suicides") and his new single "Glass Candy" is a sincere dedication to the Portland disco revisionists of the same name. We'll let BVL tell it: "I first heard Glass Candy's "I Always Say Yes," one of the very first songs of their (at the time) newly reinvented Italo disco sound, in 2005 on the blog 20jazzfunkgreats.

Here's another fine excuse for indulging in candy: three days before Halloween, National Chocolate Day on Sunday October 28 encourages all chocoholics to savor this confection in all shapes and forms! Here at Bigelow Tea, we also appreciate chocolaty goodness … and even make a White Chocolate Obsession Tea to drink when chocolate cravings strike! So, In honor of this cocoa-inspired day and Halloween, we suggest these three yummy recipes that would satisfy any sweet tooth!
Adults can prepare a cup of Spicy Chocolate Chai Tea, which gets its zest from our Spiced Chai Tea. For children of all ages, our Chewy Chocolate Mint Brownies are baked with Plantation Mint Tea. And our Chocolate SweeTEA Pie blends in cinnamon by incorporating our Sweetheart Cinnamon Herb Tea. Ah, how sweet this day is!
¾ cups (180mL) boiling water
6 Bigelow® Spiced Chai Tea Bags
1½ tablespoons (22.5mL) unsweetened cocoa
2 tablespoons (30mL) sugar

3 cinnamon sticks
Whipping cream, optional
Pour boiling water over Bigelow® Spiced Chai tea bags and let steep 5 minutes. Remove tea bags, squeeze out excess tea from tea bags.
Place tea in saucepan, stir in cocoa, sugar and cook until dissolved or just until mixture comes to a boil. Stir in milk and continue to heat until mixture is thoroughly heated. Pour into cups and garnish with cinnamon sticks and whipping cream, if desired.
5 Bigelow® Plantation Mint Tea Bags (or Bigelow Mint Medley Herb Tea Bags)
½ cup water
1 3/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
¾ cup (1-1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
4 large eggs, room temperature
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
9×13 inch baking pan, greased and floured
Yield: Yields one 9″ x 13″ pan.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set the rack on the middle setting.
Place tea bags in ½ cup of hot water. Set aside to cool, and then remove tea bags, squeezing out liquid from bags.
Meanwhile, place 1-¼ cups of the chocolate chips and butter in a metal bowl. Set over a saucepan filled with about 2 inches of water, to create a double-boiler. Heat on low and let chocolate and butter melt, stirring frequently.
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together eggs and sugars until well blended. Add the cooled tea mixture and whisk to combine. Add a few tablespoons of the melted chocolate/butter combination to the egg mixture and stir to combine. Add the remaining chocolate and incorporate. Lastly, add the flour and remaining ½ cup of chocolate chips, mixing until smooth.
Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake approximately 25 minutes. Center will feel firm but still moist. Bake 5-10 minutes longer for a drier brownie. Place pan on a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into 20 squares.

¾ cups hot whole milk
10 graham crackers, broken into pieces
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
4 large egg yolks

Pour mixture into the pie plate and press firmly onto the bottom and sides.
Bake for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Cool completely on a wire rack.
Meanwhile, place tea bags in the hot milk. Allow to steep for 5-7 minutes, and then remove tea bags, gently squeezing out liquid from bags.
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks, 2/3 cup of sugar, cornstarch and salt. Place pan on stovetop and turn heat to medium-high. While whisking, add tea infused milk. Bring mixture to a low simmer while whisking vigorously. While continuing to whisk, add chocolate chips. Continue to whisk mixture at a low simmer until thickened into a custard, about 5-7 minutes total.
Pour chocolate custard into cooled crust. Allow to cool completely before topping with whipped cream (*recipe below). Place entire pie into refrigerator to chill approximately 3 hours. Serve chilled.
*Whipped Cream
1 cup cold whipping cream or heavy cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Place all ingredients in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat until stiff peaks are formed. Spoon or pipe onto the cooled chocolate pie.

If you want to raise dysfunctional children, these are the six things you should never talk with them about.
"As a Calvinistic Southern Baptist, I respectfully disagree with the soteriological convictions held by my Traditionalist brothers and sisters in Christ" — Dr. Nathan Finn.
The issue is whether or not Christianity is compatible with hard determinism, or whether God exercises His sovereignty in such a way that allows for meaningful human freedom.
Beginning with a false premise leads to a wrong conclusion.
"This betrays a serious misunderstanding on Hicks' part concerning the nature of freedom as I explained it in my article" — Dr. B. Hunter.

Lemonade by the Glass
I'm looking for the perfect lemonade-by-the-glass recipe. I have simple syrup and lemons. What proportion of lemon juice to simple syrup (2 parts sugar/one part water) to water should I use?
re: Texchef
Agreed - perfection is in the tastebuds of the beholder. Mrs. ricepad prefers lemonade much sweeter than I do, which is odd, because she has a much higher tolerance for tartness in general.
Start with a shot of simple syrup, juice of half a lemon, ice and top off with water. Add syrup or more juice to taste. Keep in mind, that lemons vary in their tartness, so you may have to adjust as you go along.
Now that you have your syrup you can play with limeade and orangade as well.
A straw is mandatory, for me --makes it taste better :)
I have to agree that sweetness is a personal taste- I like mine really tart so i ad a lot less sugar- One thing i really do love is topping it with ice and club soda instead of water- that sparkle is really nice! :)
Thanks, everybody. I do like the sparkling water idea - now, why did I never come up with that. An inexpensive prosecco is probably not too bad either.

The large halls had been quite impressive, just like my first visit here with my sister Rose, who had wanted so badly to leave our homeless life behind and live in a grand castle such as this one. I had stepped back into the only place in Albion that I dreaded the most, thanks to that Lucien, and it still held the same coldness within its walls. Reaver and I entered quietly as we held our pistols within tight grips, my trigger finger steady but at the ready in case anything decided to pop out at us. The dark haired deviant was right behind me, probably looking at my bum more than focusing on bandits, but I heard him cock his Dragonstomper .48 as soon as the door closed.
"Didn't that butler say something about the library?" He asked in a low whisper.
I turned back to look at him, keeping my weapon raised slightly. "I think so, but there are so many bloody rooms, I can't even tell where we are." I faced forward again, looking around and

The man stood in the doorway with his usual scowl, though despite his angry demeanor that he had most of his days, his face continued to look angelic nonetheless. His arms were crossed against his chest as his eyes narrowed at the blonde woman and her eyes widened at the sight of him. She slightly backed away from the Hero and laughed nervously as she waved her hands, dismissing what he was thinking.
"I was uh, just telling Miss Sophie about the renovations." She muttered nervously as she stood backed against the wall.
"Well," Reaver cracked his neck and huffed, "it's passed your time, so you're relieved of your duties for the day. You can go and begin your week off." The dark haired man forced a fake smile to the woman and gestured with his hand for her to leave.
Terri bowed her head slightly with a nervous smile, and she sighed. "Thank you, Master Reaver. Sophie, please take care alright? I'll be around if you need me." She gave th

Chapter 9
In a deep cave located secretly among the rocks and overgrown moss just mere miles away from Reaver's hidden mansion, a meeting had begun to take place between the high class people of Albion. Many noblemen and women had left in secrecy as they ran throughout the woods as they banished their posh clothing, throwing on dark cloaks to blend in with the forest and to hide their forms. Soundless through the trees, more had crept into the cave as they found the hidden entrance, only returning guests would know exactly where to go. They had entered the small corridor that lead into a large open area of the cave, chairs and tables lining it, and in the middle sat an altar with three large stone tables, and the guests quickly morphed into their true forms of the balverine.
"Welcome brothers and sisters." A deep, guttural voice greeted the small crowd.
The members bowed their heads in return and made their way to their usual seats around the altar. S

Infrastructure Must Reads: Boston Gives Bike Helmets a Try
Helmet dispensing machines will debut in Boston over the next few weeks. Plus, more news you should know about transportation and infrastructure.
Bike-share programs are popping up in big cities across the country at a rapid pace, and most are missing a key safety item: the helmet. To up the number of riders on congested city streets with head protection, HelmetHub, the brainchild of recent MIT graduates, will start dispensing helmets for rent at several bike-share stations in the Boston area within the next few weeks. I spoke with co-founder and CFO Breanna Berry about the program in this edited and condensed transcript.
What's the launch going to look like?
We'll be releasing our pilot program soon in Boston. It will start off with four machines at four locations. Those will be directly attached to the bike-sharing docks. It will expand around October or November to 14 machines.
How did you come to work with the city?
The city of Boston's bike director, Nicole Freedman, presented at MIT our senior year in our capstone design class. She came in and said that the city has this great bike-sharing program [and that] the only problem is it doesn't have helmets available for users. The city views it as a huge liability, and it's something the city wants for its citizens. That drove our initial interest; we thought there was a substantial market for it. We presented a prototype -- both to the city of Boston and to our class -- and the city of Boston followed through.

Record: 10 – 9 – 3
Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Good to see some defensive mettle
In the face of adversity, the Winnipeg Jets did something different than last season.
Friday night at the MTS Centre, rocked by a pair of first-period goals by Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, the Jets did not start looking ahead to their next game.
Jets Scores
Powered by Sports Direct Inc.
Instead they came out for the second period and returned fire against a quality opponent. The rally carried to a 4-2 victory, continuing a very good week that began on the road.
Certainly, you can call Friday night's win a measuring-stick game. But never, ever make too much of one game.
Still, it's safe to say that you don't build foundations from the top. And so the signs are there that the Jets are at least interested in turning the corner on last season's dismal defensive record.
Friday, there was plenty of eye-candy action. Goals by stars and big saves at both ends.
But what the Jets did so differently, and behaviour that will translate into progress if it continues, is that they defended better, supported the various situations that always come up in a game.
There weren't a boat-load of odd-man rushes against. The puck was managed better -- not perfectly, but better -- creating a higher percentage of success.
This, rather than offensive stats, will mark the advances the Jets may or may not make this season.
And so, there was no reason to think that old habits had returned with a wave. It's not like the Jets just paved the way for Crosby in the game's first period. Crosby can often turn little or nothing into ink on a scoresheet, or even gold. Hello Ryan Miller.
His first goal didn't appear to be that dangerous a chance coming off the left-wing boards, but a well-placed shot found an opening.
Late in the period, it was a two-on-two, which isn't that precarious in most circumstances. But this is Crosby, and he found the opening again, leaving the Jets and their fans a little on the stunned side.
But just temporarily.
Winnipeg seemed to just play on. There was certainly no wilt or tentativeness for the second and helped by a couple of large saves by Ondrej Pavelec, the team responded by not playing afraid, but with a some confidence.
The Penguins generated chances again, but the Jets had some quick answers and were as or more dangerous in the middle frame.
And with that came some confidence, so much that really, the only trouble the Jets faced was the desperation of the final few minutes.
And survived it. Not because they barely hung on, but because very little was all they really gave a very good team in the game's critical period.

Hi: 7° Lo:0°
By Carl Jackson Wednesday 19 December 2012 Updated: 19/12 13:00
A CHARITY single produced by Bromsgrove NEW College Students has amassed almost 5,000 YouTube hits and been given the same odds to land Christmas number one as Adele.
William Hill have put a price of 50-1 on 'All the Broken Toys at Christmas' topping favourites such as X Factor's James Arthur and The Justice Collective's charity single in honour of the Hillsborough tragedy for the December 25 top spot.
Incidentally the odds are better than those for the likes of Cheryl Cole.
Momentum has gained steadily for the quirky record which has been available for download on iTunes since the start of December.
It has got plenty of play on local radio across the West Midlands and even a mention on Chris Evans Radio 2 show.
At its peak it reached number 47 on the Amazon MP3 Christmas download chart ahead of festive classic 'Driving home for Christmas' by Chris Rea.
The five minute track is inspired by the childhood heartbreaks of faulty toys on Christmas day and not getting everything on the wish list sent to Santa.
Students and tutors from the Bromsgrove college have combined their efforts on the project and are eagerly anticipating sales figures from iTunes due to be released in January.
They are hoping to raise more than £3,000 which will be donated to Sense, a charity which supports deaf blind people.
Sean Macreavy, NEW College media tutor and lead singer on 'All the Broken Toys...' said: "We are really pleased by the response so far. Its being getting interest far and wide.
"We certainly need more, it would be lovely to tickle the lower reaches of the charts on Christmas day."
Sean who placed the bet himself, said it was unbelievable to be given the same odds as Adele and said he was holding onto the betting slip just in case.
A William Hill spokesman said: "We can confirm we gave the track the price ahead of some of the luminaries of the music world and traditional favourites.
"With all the focus been on James Arthur and The Justice Collection, it might be time for a real outsider to sneak up on the Christmas rail and steal the crown."
Type in 'All the Broken Toys at Christmas' on YouTube to watch the video or download the track on iTunes or Amazon.
