ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Annapolis police say a store cashier fought off an armed robber, who then ran away.
It happened about 6:40 p.m. Monday at the Fun for All! Toys on West Street. Officers tell The Capital of Annapolis that a masked man approached the front counter, displayed a handgun and demanded money.
The cashier tried to knock the gun from the robber's hand, and a struggle ensued.
The robber eventually ran from the store. The cashier was not hurt.

[WARNING: The following contains spoilers from Hemlock Grove's Season 2 finale. Read at your own risk.]
After three seasons with a fake lawyer roaming the halls of Pearson Specter, Suits has reset itself in Season 4 after Mike (Patrick J. Adams) went legit by joining Sidwell's investment banking firm at the end of Season 3. Get the scoop on your favorite returning showsBefore you could begin to wonder how the show would service both firms, it answered it for us: Sidwell is a Pearson Specter client. And now Mike and Harvey (Gabriel Macht) are embroiled in a nasty, season-long takeover battle for Walter Gillis' (Michael Gross) company involving another one of Harvey's clients, Logan Sanders (Brendan Hines), who just so ...

[Warning: This article contains major spoilers from Season 2 of Orange Is the New Black. Read at your own risk!]
Now that Orange Is the New Black's second season has been out for about a month, we assume everyone has finished watching all 13 episodes at LEAST once. (And if you haven't, what have you been doing with your time?!)
So, for those of you who find yourselves once again in the summer doldrums, going through OITNB withdrawal, we pose a question: Did the show jump the shark in Season 2?
[Warning: This article contains major spoilers about the Season 2 finale of The Following. Read at your own risk!]
Is it time to unfollow The Following? After a promising start, Kevin Williamson's serial killer drama felt unfocused, repetitive and overindulgent for much of its sophomore season.
On Monday's finale, Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon) and Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) came face to face (again), but this time they ended up working towards a common goal.

[WARNING: The following contains spoilers from the Season 4 finale of Downton Abbey. Read at your own risk.] We are grateful to have Downton Abbey in our lives, but our devotion to the show is the very reason we're so irked at how it progressed this season. Although we've come to terms with the loss of Matthew (Dan Stevens) and Sybil (Jessica Brown-Findlay), it doesn't seem like the writers quite know what to do in the wake of those deaths. So much of this season felt either forced or false or just failed miserably. Has Downton Abbey lost its charm?
Before launching into the season as a whole, let's go over the highlights of the finale, shall we?
Scandal, I have some questions for you. Namely, what the hell happened?
The ABC drama used to be believable. Not plausible, but at least somewhat believable. For any show to pull off the over-the-top melodrama Scandal does without becoming completely unhinged, it needs to be grounded by some semblance of reason. Even cartoons exist within a set of limitations. For example, Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote can both run in midair unless Coyote looks down and realizes he's about to fall. Then, by the rules of cartoon physics, he plummets. Recently though, it's felt like Scandal's been running full-speed ahead with no ground beneath it, but when they look down and see they're about to fall, they say, 'F--- it, I'm going higher."
Blow it up and start again. That was the philosophy (literally, not figuratively) going into Season 5 of FX's Archer, which has been dubbed Archer: Vice. The rebooted version of the show finds the agents of the now-defunct ISIS becoming drug dealers in order to get rid of the ton of cocaine they've amassed through their spy work over the years. But of course, the transition hasn't been all smooth sailing. Over the course of the first four episodes, they've found themselves entangled with...

Do you think Ellie Bishop becoming a full-fledged member of the NCIS crew has derailed the show? Did New Girl lose you when Nick and Jess got together? Has Scandal gone bonkers with the introduction of Terrorist Mama Pope?
Get the latest scoop on your favorite TV shows in this week's Mega Buzz
Those are just a few of the questions we've been asking ourselves lately, which means it's time to figure out which shows you think have gone too far. Have NCIS, Scandal and New Girl jumped the shark?
New Girl's Schmidt needs to get his mojo back.
Ever since Schmidt's (Max Greenfield) breakup with both Cece (Hannah Simone) and Elizabeth (Merritt Wever), he's become a neutered character who lacks the spectacular douche-jar worthiness that we all fell in love with from the beginning of the Fox comedy.

Oh, Grey's Anatomy, you had me at hello... and you lost me at Bailey's OCD.
I've stuck with the show that made Shonda Rhimes a household name through Izzie's (Katherine Heigl) ghost sex, the Alex/Ava saga, "Intern Fight Club," and even that god-awful musical episode. When people ask me why I'm still watching Grey's, currently limping through its 10th season, my response has always been: "I'm going down with that ship." But Season 10 has me on the verge of jumping overboard. Here are six reasons why I'm ready to give up on Grey's:

Bond no.9
Izzie, what about you? Are you going to tell us your pick? Or are you just enjoying watching us all squirm?
The nose wants what it wants!
Montale Paris
My first instinct is Frederic Malle, but part is me is saying Dior now. Definitely something with a diverse line.
Well I used to say I would pick ysl, but now I am onto Trumpers, with there matching line of great quality shaving creams body washes etc I would smell great all the time, now if only they had a gourmand!
Chanel. No, Dior. No, Chanel. Or Dior. Impossible, - can't make up my mind.

Hi Guys,
Could you get by with fragrances from only one fragrance house? If yes, which would it be.
I have thought about it, but haven't found a house that has the fragrances to satisfy me all year round.
I wouldn't want to do that, but if I had to, I'd probably choose Guerlain.
Guerlain, easily.
Malle from the more recent houses.
If i was forced: Hermès.
Dior Homme - formal
Dior Homme Intense - casual/dates/comfort scent
Dior Homme Sport - summer
Fahrenheit Absolute - work
Fahrenheit - daring
TOP 3 hot weather:
1. Gucci Pour Homme II
2. Lalique Encre Noire
3. Creed Aventus
TOP 3 cold weather:
1. L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme Extreme
2. Chanel Coromandel
3. Dior Homme
Without question....Creed.
Only if I get forced: Creed
My signature scents:
Current: GREEN IRISH TWEED (since June 2010)
Past: BOIS DU PORTUGAL (Oct. 09 - May 10)
Past Past: EAU SAUVAGE (good 15 years !!!)
Past Past Past: LANVIN L'HOMME (2 years)
Past Past Past Past: EAU SAUVAGE again (3 years or so)
Reviews :: http://www.lemouchoirparfume.blogspot.co.uk :: Reviews
I've chosen to do this, with Bond No. 9
Current Top 5:
1. Frederic Malle L'eau d'Hiver
2. Tom Ford Noir de Noir
3. Dior Homme / Dior Homme Intense
4. Thierry Mugler A*Men Pure Havane / Pure Malt
5. Creed Aventus / Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille
I'd hate to have to do that...but if I didn't have a choice, YSL.
That would stink big time, but if forced it would probably be Mona di Orio.
Current Top Favorites:
1) Portrait of a Lady original formula (EdP Frédéric Malle)
2) Giorgio for Men vintage/V.I.P. for Men (Giorgio Beverly Hills)
3) Dia Man vintage edt (Amouage)
4) Anat Fritz Original Formula and Classical (Anat Fritz) - tie
4) Lalfeorosa (O'driù) - tie
6) Les Nombres d'Or Vetyver (Mona di Orio)
7) Captain vintage (Molyneux)
8) Tzora (Anat Fritz)
9) Javanese Patchouli (Zegna) - tie
9) Monsieur de Givenchy vintage (Givenchy) - tie
9) Coeur de Vetiver Sacré (L'Artisan) - tie
9) X for Men (Clive Christian) - tie
9) Patou pour Homme Privé (Jean Patou) - tie
9) Oud Shamash (The Different Company) - tie
Current Favorites:
1. Le 3me Homme - Caron
2. Yatagan - Caron
3. Van Cleef & Arples Pour Homme
4. Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme
5. Kouros - YSL
6. L'Anarchiste - Caron
7. Xeryus - Givenchy
8. V.I.P. Special Reserve - Giorgio Beverly Hills
9. The Dreamer - Versace
10. Nobile - Gucci
Could never be satisfied with just one fragrance house.
Guerlain. no doubt.
seeking mitsouko 50ml's cap....desperately!!
would never want to, but if I absolutely had to, I'd probably go with Creed. There the only house with 3 fragrances in my top 10. Damn I would sure miss my Tobacco Vanille & LIDGE though...
Very close between Guerlain and Chanel - but Chanel would get it mainly because I love Chanel No.5 so much. Couldn't live without it.
House of Diamondflame.
If I were limited to one house only, it would be:
1. Dior, alternatively,
2. Yves Saint Laurent
Guerlain...with consideration to Vintage YSL and Caron.
Some perfumes are as fragrant as an infants flesh, sweet as an oboes cry, and greener than the spring; While others are triumphant, decadent or rich; Having the expansion of infinite things, like ambergris and musk, benzoin and frankincense, which sing the transports of the mind and every sense.
― Charles Baudelaire, The Flowers of Evil & Paris Spleen
It would have to be Dunhill, so i can continue with my all-time favourite, Blend 30.
ointments and perfume delight the heart....
Another vote for Guerlain.
"No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this." Desert Rose by Sting and Cheb Mami, Album 1999.
Only one house then looking at my current collection I would have to go with the house I own most bottles from, which is Xerjoff
Would miss my Guerlains though...
Creed may not be the most innovative, but their products sure are wearable.
- - - Updated - - -
- - - Updated - - -
I few years ago for me would have been Polo ***embarrassed***
- - - Updated - - -
Favorite notes at this point: Sandal wood, Oud, Frankincense, Rose
This is easy. For their range of fragrances from affordable to very exclusive, and just the sheer variety, it would have to be:
To choose only one would be traumatic, however, in the spirit of the posted question, I would choose Guerlain to be my maison de fragrance.
Ericrico hit the nail on the head with this one.
Vintage YSL.
Chanel or L'Artisan
RHM's Vintage, Rare & Pretty Darn Good items on offer: http://www.basenotes.net/threads/380...old-Pour-Femme
I want to change my answer to Guerlain.
Ooooh! Difficult choice. I could live with Santa Maria Novella. From the best Citrus Colognes....... through the florals...... to the wierd and wonderful tobacco/leather/incense fragrances.
Lutens or Malle.
Facebook group: Perfume Lovers in Singapore, Unite! (You don't have to be in Singapore to join.)
Frederic Malle.
(First runner up, Chanel, then Amouage.)
Since my last response on this thread I've discovered Jicky EdP, which is my number one right now by some margin.
Having said that, I've also discovered Eau Sauvage Extreme and Eau Sauvage Parfum - the former is very good, and the latter is fantastic. So I'd hate to have lose Dior.
But Guerlain has it, if I have to choose one.
I have come to realize that I cannot pick just one without mentioning others that I adore.
Whose idea was this anyway? LOL. I believe variety is the spice of life, especially in olfactory pleasure.
I have to mention, or else I wouldn't be honest - Balenciaga. Their male fragrances literally stop me in my tracks when I smell them - I am mesmerized. A house that is so significant and dear to me.
A more fair thread that was on BN a while back - "Name your Top 5 houses". At least then, we don't feel like Tom Hanks stuck on an island talking to a ball named, "Wilson", losing our sanity. That is the relative effect of having to choose one house for us with a deep passion...

So, how are things looking now???
Still a crazy mess! Drywall dust everywhere, have to were shoes to go the the bathroom so I don't step on a nail. Lol.
I will take some more pics soon.
One kinda good thing out of this...
I had a TON of stuff in boxes all out in the garage and shop, all my personal belongings from the last 20 years of my life.
Well my parents got a huge construction dumpster, rented it for 2 weeks. It holds like 4 regular dumpsters worth of garbage. So this was the perfect time to go through all my boxes and throw stuff away.
It was really sad, because there were all my wedding memories and boxes of love letters all the way from when I was 14 with my ex husband. Just box after box of memories. but we are sorting through, and have almost made our way through everything. I held on to a lot because I secretly hoped we would get back together.... But it has been, wow, almost 5 years I think. And he is engaged... So it is about time I throw all that stuff away.
I thought maybe it would feel good to get rid of it all, but it didn't, it just made me sad. I am thankful it is almost done though.
I hope you kept at least some for your kids to be able to treasure in the future.
**HUGS** Ginger - that has got to be tough!!
I am probably neglecting housework so I can be here... My Gallery

My diarrhea was out of control and I could not go anywhere without taking Pepto Bismo first. I planned my life around where I could find the nearest bathroom! I also felt weak and exhausted after each attack. It had really taken over my life. A friend at work had the same problem, apparently even worse, as she often could not even make it to work. She told me about this product. Now, we both lead normal lives!

I read all the reviews of this product and figured I should try since I have tried many probiotics. I took 5 on the first day (a loading dose) as one reviewer suggested which seemed to reset my stomach by reducing bloating and calming everything down. I have been taking one in the morning and one at night. I have noticed a significant decrease in bloating. I feel better and have more energy overall. Its been 2 weeks so far and I will continue taking it. This seems to be one of the best probiotics I have tried so far. I supplement with Kefir drinks which depending on the brand has 20 billion plus, live cultures in it. You can get this at any healthy markets in the dairy aisle. The also make coconut kefir and juice kefir which are dairy free. I would highly recommend trying that in addition to probiotics. I have been searching for years for products that work.

I had been suffering with uncontrollable UC for several months - constant urgency, diarrhea, bleeding and frequency. Certain foods were just not tolerated and would send things off in a downward spiral. I was a prisoner of my bathroom. I took Dr. Ohirra's probitotics in conjunction with penicillin VK and it cleared up the UC symptoms in a few days (started with 2 in AM, 1 PM first week - now taking just 1 in AM before eating). I can now tolerate the foods, too, that were a problem. Mentioned this miracle to a friend with exact same problem with their UC. They started the probiotics, but no penicillin, and their symptoms are gone, too (not sure what role, if any the penicillin played for me, but need to note its use. BTW, I tested not-positive for parasites, etc, just the week before). For you folks with UC that has become untreatable with conventional drugs (was on Asacol at max dosage in conjunction with Mesalamine) this is a UC miracle! I tried the other, very expensive, refrigerated probiotic to no avail, Dr Ohirra's are the best.

Water restrictions end, focus now on maintaining an old system
Jim Neustadt, WSSC spokesman Friday 6:50 p.m.
WSSC needs to answer outage questions
Rushern Baker, Prince George's County executive, at 8:50 a.m. Thursday.
'Things went really well overnight'
Jerry Irvine, WSSC spokesman, at 6:10 a.m. Thursday
WSSC, county prepared for the worst, hoped for the best
Md. Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday
Outage averted: Businesses thrilled
David Harrington, president and CEO of Prince George's Chamber of Commerce, Wednesday 2:20 p.m.
Water main repairs in the county
Jim Neustadt, head of communications for WSSC at 12:30 p.m. Wednesday.
UPDATE: Friday - 7/19/2013, 6:45pm ET
WASHINGTON - The Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission has lifted the mandatory water restrictions for Prince George's County.
The failing 54-inch pipe has been repaired and normal service has resumed. The restrictions end immediately, the commission announced Friday evening.
The commission says water quality tests came back Friday evening showing the water flowing through the repaired pipe is safe to drink. Crews also had to re-open a problematic valve to get the water flowing again, which took some time, according to the commission.
"People in that area of Prince George's County have a much more secure water supply," says WSSC spokesman Jim Neustadt.
But the commission can't promise that the same pipe or others like it won't burst or come close to failing in the future.
"We will see how it does. But it is an old main," Neustadt says. "Things will happen again no doubt about it whether its here on this location or some place else."
Customer water conservation efforts helped take the strain off the system during the repair work.
"I want to extend a special thank you to everyone involved in making the repair to this pipe happen under some incredibly difficult logistical and weather-related circumstances," said CEO Jerry Johnson in a written statement. "We are fully aware this was an extremely difficult week to be confronted with both water restrictions and a heat wave."
EARLIER: Friday - 7/19/2013, 10:11am ET
WASHINGTON - Repairs on a 54-inch water main in southern Prince George's County are progressing, and the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission says the pipe could be put back into service this weekend.
The utility said Friday a weakened section of the main has been replaced, flushed and sealed. Once a water sample confirms the water is not contaminated, the line can reopen.
"We're saying 'sometime this weekend,' and we're hoping it's a little earlier than that," said WSSC spokesman I.J. Hudson.
Once the test results come back, Hudson said "it'll be a heartbeat and that word will be out."
Residents are being urged to continue conserving water.
"People did an amazing job of conserving water," said WSSC spokesman Jerry Irvine. "We just ask them to continue to do that."
As the utility replaces part of the failing main, Prince George's County Executive Rushern Baker says he wants answers from WSSC.
"We have averted a major disaster," said WSSC General Manager and CEO Jerry Johnson on Wednesday.
Key to averting the outage for roughly 150,000 WSSC residential and commercial customers was the closure of a valve near the failing pipe.
Four WSSC workers are credited with keeping those customers from completely losing their water service.
"We knew if we could get that valve to work, it would save a lot of headaches for the Commission," said technician Tom Ecker.
For hours, the work was down 20 feet under the ground and in 3 feet of water.
Rebuilding the frozen valve was a move that WSSC spokesman Jim Neustadt called a "Hail Mary."
Throughout the process, WSSC and Prince George's urged customers to be patient.
Mandatory water restrictions put in place at 9 p.m. Tuesday remain in place.
Here are some guidelines from WSSC for what to do while the water restrictions are in place:
- Stop using water outside. This includes filling pools, watering gardens or
grass and washing cars.
- Take shorter showers and turn off faucets after washing hands or while
brushing teeth.
- Don't flush after every use.
- Postpone using washing machines and dishwashers.
Some of the areas affected include the following:
- Morningside
- Hillcrest Heights
- Camp Springs
- Forest Heights
- Temple Hills
- Oxon Hills
- Joint Base Andrews
- National Harbor

Fire trucks to take water to fires
Fire engines were ready to haul water to fire scenes. Neighboring counties also offered water tankers. But additional resources were called off Wednesday night.
#PGwater The reliabilty of maintaining water & pressure within our hydrant system is satisfactory-PGFD will stand down addl resources at 6pm— Mark Brady (@PGFDPIO) July 17, 2013
Police and fire officials in Prince George's County had asked residents to only call 911 for what Mark Brady, Prince George's County Fire and EMS spokesman, called "true emergencies" - life-threatening situations, chest pains, trouble breathing, serious injuries, auto accident injuries.
For non-emergencies, people should call the county's 311 non-emergency line.
News that the water outage had been averted was a welcome one for Prince George's County businesses, said David Harrington, president and CEO of Prince George's Chamber of Commerce.
"This could have been devastating," he said. "Loss into the millions of dollars."
"This is welcome news that allows businesses to remain open."
Many businesses and restaurants shut down Wednesday, including National Harbor.
Business in National Harbor slowly reopened on Thursday, including The Gaylord Resort.
"The other businesses that were going to be booked for the next couple of days, we can give them the assurance that they can still keep to their plans and come," said Kent Digby, spokesman for National Harbor.
With the region under a massive heat wave this week, some people have questioned why WSSC had to make the repairs.
The answer was simple. The agency did not want such a huge water main that serves so many people to burst. On Monday night, WSSC issued its warning that the water would be shut off.
"We explored every option of mitigation due to the weather. It was from WSSC that we got the clear picture that this was a dire situation," said Scott Peterson, spokesman for the county executive.
For several days a warning system attached to the 54-inch pipe alerted WSSC that it may be ready to rupture. The wires that support the pipe burst.
The acoustic cables that signaled there could be a problem were put in service in June. They started pinging -- signaling a problem -- on July 12.
"We wouldn't be doing this if there wasn't an imminent problem with this pipe," said WSSC spokesman Jim Neustadt on WTOP, said earlier in the week.
"Think about River Road when that water main exploded in 2008, and there was a pouring of water going down River Road. We don't want this situation to end up like that," said WSSC spokeswoman Lyn Riggins on Wednesday.
The water main wasn't in an area that is easily accessible.
The utility built a road to where the section of failing pipe is located.
Neustadt said the section is in a wooded area that "is roughly bordered by the Beltway and Suitland Parkway and Forestville Road."
WSSC has 77 miles of acoustic cables that monitor water mains that are 48 inches or larger. This year, Hudson said the utility is adding cable to water mains that are 36 to 42 inches wide.
Overall, WSSC has 5,600 miles of freshwater pipes.

NBA Most Valuable PlayerComments Off
July 30, 2013 by admin
Record shows a number of great players that won the MVP award consecutively, but there are still more room for another record breaking performance for the young and talented LeBron James.
No doubt he will win it again. If not because of his departure at Cleveland (his former team) three years ago in free agency, he might actually get the honor of being the only player ever to win the Most Valuable Player award for five consecutive years.
His playing style is dynamic, very aggressive and well disciplined. The figure will really tells us that undoubtedly he will bring home the trophy again. His staggering statistics will tell us that he ain't done yet by connecting 56.5 percent of his field goal shots, that includes his 40.6 percent 3-point shots. He also averaged 8.0 rebounds, 7.3 assist and 1.7 steals every game.
LeBron James is not playing for numbers sake, all he wants is to win the game every time at all cost thus helping Heat's record franchise to win 27 games in a row. This is the second best mark in the whole NBA history.
Most players doesn't have the attitude like James, his determination is so high that even Miami head coach Spoelstra commented that he makes greatness seems so easy, and Spoelstra is convinced that he is the greatest player as of now that he will continue his reign at the top because of his high motivation and his intense desire to win. Even online sportsbook sbobet agrees with Spoelstra and placed James at $4.50 odds to win the MVP award.
He will surely play for more as he will strive to be on the top of the record on the coming years by joining Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain and Larry Bird as the only players to win the Most Valuable Player award three straight in a row. This records failed to achieve by Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
We hope to see more a lot of action from LeBron James in the coming season, and one thing for sure, he will be an MVP again.

A Quick Look At The Leading MVP CandidatesComments Off
February 10, 2013 by admin
Let us take a look at who made the cut for the top 10 candidates for the coveted Most Valuable Player title… so far.
Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat
A left knee surgery prior to the start of the season did not stop D-Wade from proving that he could still hold his own, and even fully take over, in a game. Currently, he ranks eighth overall in the league in scoring. With a 50.9% shooting average per game, he is definitely at the peak of his game.
Averages per game: 21.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.7 assists
Russell Westbrook, Oklahoma City Thunder
He is arguably the most athletic point guard around, probably even in all of NBA history. Westbrook may not have been the best at shooting this season, but if the last five games are any indication, he can get the shots in when the situation calls for it (and when does it not?). If he manages to keep his shooting average above 50%, he will be a shoo-in for a nod.
Averages per game: 22.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, 8.1 assists
Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors
This season saw the Warriors coming on really strong in the standings, and much of that is credited to Curry, who has shown vast improvement on the court. His 3-poiner skills had shooting up to second place in the league as to the number of 3-point shots made, and third in 3-point percentage and attempts.
Averages per game: 20.9 points, 6.6 assists, 44.8 3-point percentage
Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers
There is no denying that the Lakers wouldn't be where they are this season if not for their shooting guard Kobe. The holder of the most All-Star Game MVP awards won (at 4, tied with Bob Pettit) still has what it takes.
Averages per game: 27.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.4 assists
James Harden, Houston Rockets
Many people claimed that the Rockets' offense has shown great improvement the moment Harden entered the picture. This is still his first season with Houston, but already he is seen to be the one to lead the Rockets' charge into the playoffs.
Averages per game: 26.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.7 assists
Chris Paul, Los Angeles Clippers
A knee injury kept Chris Paul from playing at his best for a while. However, he is back in top form, trouncing the New York Knicks and the Philadelphia 76ers. His impressive 19-of-28 shooting assured him a spot in the top contenders for the MVP award.
Averages per game: 16.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, 9.5 assists
Carmelo Anthony, New York Knicks
Melo is currently leading in scoring, effectively shoving Kevin Durant from the top spot after making 109 points in three games. We're still not sure whether the fact that they lost two of those games despite the high scoring on his part would affect his bid. For now, though, he is still one of the m 88 top contenders.
Averages per game: 29.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 41.1 field goal %
Tony Parker, San Antonio Spurs
Winning 13 out of 14 straight games is no mean feat for a basketball team, and the NBA is quick to recognize this accomplishment by the San Antonio Spurs. Without Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili on the lineup, there were fears that the Spurs would be relegated to the back. But Tony Parker stepped up to the plate, and he deserves all the recognition being given to him right now. In just four games, he has averaged 27.5 points and an impressive 9.8 assists.
Averages per game: 20.7 points, 7.7 assists, 53.5 field goal %
Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder
Another OKC Thunder MVP shoo-in is Kevin Durant, who has been having a great season so far. True, LeBron James may be playing on an entirely higher plane than everyone else, but he Durant could either cower in fear before James or take it as a challenge and up the ante of his game even more. We will see which route he chooses when he goes toe-to-toe with LeBron and the rest of the Heat on Thursday.
Averages per game: 28.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, 90.4 free throw %
LeBron James, Miami Heat
After breaking a franchise record of scoring over 30 points in six straight games, LeBron Raymone James seems all set to get another NBA Most Valuable Player title. He already has three, from 2009, 2010 and 2012. He is having such a sensational season that already his name is being compared to the likes of legends Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Oscar Robertson. As things stand right now, he's already won the award.
Averages per game: 27.0 points, 8.1 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 56.2 field goal %

Deadbolt Door Locks
If you're looking for a grade 2 deadbolt, then you are probably looking for a viable commercial lock without opting for necessarily the highest strength standards that the industry offers. Grade 2 deadbolts will still provide a large level of protection, even more so than a standard residential lock, working well for businesses, homes and many other applications.
While it's advised that these deadbolt door locks are primarily designed for commercial use, our inventory reflects that these have multiple uses, and it is up to the lock's owner to decide exactly how it should be used. Our recommendation is first that you determine which grade is the optimal fit for your current system, and then decide which pieces would fit best with the equipment you are currently employing.
If you are looking to implement a new system, then we recommend that you first determine your building's needs, and purchase accordingly. These locks, such as the Arrow E50-03 indicator deadbolt, have a myriad of uses, though some are more distinctly for commercial purposes. In the case of the E50-03, the indicator deadbolt is clearly designed for restaurant or public-space use on an individual facility, such as a bathroom or stall.
It allows for an emergency key to override the mechanism in case of a problem, and provides a large window to see the "in use" message. Made from bright brass, it provides a durable option for a simple, straightforward application.
Another example of a keyless deadbolt that we offer is the Arrow V2-51, which also features a keyed option in the case of an emergency or forgotten passcode. This standalone electronic deadbolt lock features a simple touchpad with a capacity for up to 25 individual users—making it a great option not just for a residence, but also a small business that might have a dynamic staff, or the need to keep codes disposable.
As always, our goal is to create a supply of products that is not only one of the largest of its kind, but also that appeals to our customers needs. We recognize that the majority of our customers already know exactly what they want and need from our inventory, and so we want to make those products easily available to you.
We encourage you to take advantage of our search tool to find the exact products you're looking for—and again, if you cannot seem to locate your desired product, please contact one of our customer service representatives immediately and we'll help you get what you need. Thanks for choosing Buy Access!

I've met several of the folks from the board in person at games (Asian, costanza, SN1, Jiga, MJG, stlrz_d, Iron Shiek, NCSteelerfan, SanAntonioSteelerFan, AkronSteel, Columbussteelerfan, among others)...all are respectful on the board, and are good people in person. I've even met some Sirius NFL Radio guys like the Commish (Brandon from Missouri) and the Big Fella (Adrian from the Burgh) at games. I always wondered what it would be like if someone who is known for douchebaggery on the board just randomly showed up to one of our tailgates in person.

I thought the guy in the Deebo jersey was ColumbusSteelerFan (not the guy in the Silverback throwback...that's cos2k1). His wife is next to him in the gold sweatshirt. What was his name on the board...it had to be something close to ColumbusSteelerFan, no?
BuckeyeHoppy, or as my friend like to call him, "Chris Farley"
Alright give us the rundown of who is who. I feel like we need a caption...."From Right to Left: Front row-...."

This thread is dedicated to the "what ifs" when it comes to a fighter and a characteristic that they may lack. It could be fighters from the past or present. Basically like this...
What if the Diaz brothers were strong wrestlers, too?
What if GSP had one shot KO power?
What if BJ Penn was big and strong with endless cardio?
What if Jon Jones had pinpoint accuracy and speed in his strikes?
What if Sonnen had top knotch submission defense?
What if Sonnen had KO power in his GNP?
What if Lesnar had elite level striking and never became ill?
What if Fitch had lightning fast submissions from all over the place?
What if JDS had explosive takedowns?
I could go on but you get the picture. Hopefully you guys will think of some better ones.

the 11Mp5/ 3% crit gem seems to be the best meta. the int / mana on cast gem has no use as we never lose any mana.
Also, most flash pallies I talk to seem to agree that socket bonuses should only be matched if the bonus is spell power, or haste if you're under the 676 haste soft cap.

Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps are large scale street plans produced by the Sanborn Fire Insurance company from 1867 to 1970. Sanborn maps show the outline of each building including the location of windows and doors together with street names, street and sidewalk widths, property boundaries, building use, and house and block numbers. These maps are used by a wide range of researchers including local historians to locate and identify buildings and neighborhoods, urban historians to study the growth of towns and cities, and environmentalists concerned about impact of new developments.
When the administration of the Western College for Women – now a part of Miami University – opened its campus to civil rights activists in 1964, the institution followed its long tradition of independence and innovation. An estimated 700 young, idealistic college students from across the north arrived in Oxford, Ohio for voter registration training before leaving to serve in Mississippi to register African-Americans to vote and assist with local community projects, like Freedom schools and the building of community centers.
Today, the story of Freedom Summer has the power to evoke important questions about American identity, public life, engagement, and commitment. This exhibit will focus on local resident Roland Duerksen and former student volunteers Carole Colca and Mark Levy. They have left the legacy of their work in the Western College Memorial Archives. This exhibit, which includes photographs, letters, audio recordings, and an interactive map of Mississippi, will serve as a narrative of their dedication to civil rights and social justice.

She was, perhaps, the most beautiful woman to have ever lived.
There are some who think that about Grace Kelly, the exquisite actress who became a Hollywood legend on the basis of just 11 motion pictures in which she appeared before abandoning Tinseltown for the palaces of Monaco. There can certainly be no doubt that Grace Kelly was a gorgeous woman. And, by most accounts, the beauty of her face and form was mirrored by the beauty of her heart and personality. You'll find few negative stories about the woman who broke Alfred Hitchcock's heart and stole Prince Rainier's.
Now, you may be wondering what Grace Kelly's beauty has to do with America's early black music stars, which was the topic Craven promised to continue addressing in this space two weeks ago. To answer that, you have to know a little more about Grace Kelly's family - specifically, her uncle, Walter C. Kelly, one of two relatives who preceded Grace in a showbiz career. Y'see, as beautiful as Grace Kelly was, that's how ugly Walter C. Kelly was.
When I talk about him being ugly, I don't mean on the outside. Walter C. Kelly was no Cary Grant or even Jimmy Stewart, to name two of his niece's future co-stars, but he wasn't painful to look at. If you'd caught his vaudeville act back in the early days of the 20th century, you'd have seen a broad-shouldered Irishman with a thick neck, a pugnacious face and a simple haircut, sometimes parted on the left, sometimes parted down the center like a schoolboy.
Kelly billed himself as "the Virginia Judge," and wearing a heavy, alpaca coat, the "comic" enacted a hateful parody of a court proceeding, drawing his "humor" at the expense of - mostly - black folks. Copiously peppering his routine with the N-word, Kelly's act was as terribly racist as they came, even then. Nor was it "just" an act; racism coursed through Kelly's veins like charm did through his niece's.
We know this because in 1905, Kelly was scheduled to appear at Hammerstein's Victoria Theatre, one of the leading vaudeville houses in New York City. But he refused to go onstage when he learned that Williams and Walker, the then extremely popular comedy-and-song duo who had broken records as black performers, were also on the bill.
What especially got Kelly's goat was that Williams and Walker were allowed to occupy the theater's star dressing room. Williams and Walker were sanguine about the incident; Walker famously said, "The man is foolish. The day is past for that sort of thing. Both white men and black men have a right to earn a living in whatever manner they find most convenient, providing they injure no one else."
But Kelly guarded his grudge like it was a precious thing, and a couple years later, tried to organize a boycott against a charity event hosted by George M. Cohan - an event that once again was to feature Williams and Walker. Although Kelly succeeded in convincing a couple other white acts to pull out of the charity event, the show went on to huge success. Next week, we'll learn about another important early black American performer - and the incident that proved Grace Kelly didn't share her ugly uncle's racist ways.

The Watchers
I wrote this book just after graduating from a university in Wales. I had studied theology and my head was full of creation myths and tales.
In particular, one line in the Old Testament intrigued me: "That the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful: and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose." (Genesis 6:2-4)
With that line, the idea for The Watchers grew. I researched the countless myths and legends wondering just how humanity came to live on this earth. I read about Terry Pratchett who had asked this, by now famous, question: "Are we fallen angels or rising apes?
The story concentrates on the downfall of humanity and the celestial angelic beings known as angels. It expands on the Genesis tale of the creation of humanity and its fall from favour.
It recounts the fall of the angels, the seduction of the women and the human race being expelled from Eden.
The story begins with the creation of the universe, which was designed by the Divine but actually constructed by the angels.
The angels are a single species, all male, all beautiful. They first create the Earth and all its habitats and are then commissioned to build a paradise on Earth. Here all beasts are supposed to live in peace beside each other.
The Divine then commands the next creation--humans. The Archangels lead the way in creating these humans from the soil of the earth. The humans are unlike anything created before, they are earthly creatures that come in pairs, a male and a female. On the otehr hand, the angels, being only male, cannot procreate within its species, although they are immortal.
A selected group of angels is appointed to watch over the humans, to care for them and educate them. It is a joyous time for the humans; they live freely and peacefully in the garden while the Watchers do all the work for them.
Yet there are grievance felt by some of the angelic Watchers. They begin to favour the women, finding them attractive and soon enough they long for them. They feel it is unfair that they do not have a partner, like the humans and the animals.
So the watchers attempt to seduce the women. To their joy, they find the women responsive to their feelings. The attention these magnificent angels give to them flatters the female humans.
Affairs begin, secretly at first, but the birds and the bees notice and soon a confrontation between the men and the angels occurs, continuing the corruption within Paradise.
The Watchers is available from at www.amazon.com and www.bookforce.co.uk
