What we are discovering in the third season of 24 is that if you set up a series in which anything can happen, anything will, whether it makes sense or not. Thus, we now find our hero, Kiefer Sutherland's government agent Jack Bauer -- the epitome of hardheaded discipline -- apparently a junkie trying to shake a drug addiction born of loneliness, torture (both inner and outer), and the soul-sapping realization that he's aligned himself with David Palmer (Dennis Haysbert), the only U.S. president with more personal problems than Bill Clinton. Oh, and I say ''apparently'' to cover my tail, since in any given hour, ticktocked by the minute in each episode, plots and motives are overturned for the sake of unexpectedness. In fact, please consider all speculations in this review as being prefaced by ''apparently.'' For example, as I write this, Jack's smack habit could, for all we know, prove to be a devilish ruse. In any case, it cannot hold much allure for Nina Myers (Sarah Clarke), the former lover who murdered his wife. You got the feeling they recently smooched primarily as an alternative to killing each other.
If the biggest surprises of the current ''24'' scenario are that Jack's cougar-bait daughter, Kim (Elisha Cuthbert), suddenly has enough brains to hold down a sensitive position at the Counter Terrorist Unit and switch to a new hairstylist, its biggest letdown is that the series is locked into yet another foreign-bad-guys blackmail scheme. Set three years after last season's foreign-bad-guys blackmail scheme, the central premise involves some kind of virus that can either kill you or do nothing to you: Within the first three hours this season, a character exposed to a powder thought to contain the virus prompted a ''level 3 hot zone'' alert and forced Jack to wear one of those clumpy, very nonheroic-looking hazmat suits. But, this being a series in which we know there are 24 hours to fill, no third-hour threat can mean much -- the powder wasn't dangerous after all; the virus went elsewhere.
This is now the problem with ''24'': The first season was a giddy novelty; the second season was a guaranteed tune-in to see if the producers could pull off the same trick twice. But now we know the rhythm of the series, and so its anything-can-happen energy has dissipated into a how-can-we-bring-back-fan-favorites waiting game, proved by the simultaneously welcome yet predictable return of Nina and President Palmer's evil ex, Sherry (Penny Johnson Jerald). The series, which initially grappled with terrorism in the wake of Sept. 11, has doggedly stuck to making sure that the main enemy always has an accent (this season, it's a couple of Mexico-based baddies, the Salazar brothers) and an aim to make some big bucks by assaulting America.
Clearly -- or actually, the way ''24'' does it, cloudily -- the virus is what Alfred Hitchcock used to call a MacGuffin: an urgent-sounding item that sets everyone in motion but which is ultimately irrelevant. ''24'' is always about the process of getting Sutherland and one or two supporting players (this season, a buzz-cut side of CTU beef played by James Badge Dale) into some insurmountable trap, preferably one that involves torture and a few gunshot wounds. And there must be at least one scene per season in which Jack kills someone ruthlessly, as when, handcuffed in the Dec. 9 episode, he scissor-locked his legs around a prison guard in a very cool, death-dealing swivel. (Has Fox found the 18 -- 49 S&M market particularly lucrative?) Then we wait a week and the good guys wriggle out of their traps. Some characters disappear -- I'm sorry, where did Andrea Thompson, introduced early on in her first post -- I'm-no-actor-I'm-a-TV- journalist acting role, go to? -- while others begin to loom larger.
So far, my favorite by far is Chloe, the perpetually frowning CTU computer geek played by Mary Lynn Rajskub, formerly a perpetually frowning assistant on ''The Larry Sanders Show.'' Chloe is the kind of humorless drone another character can blithely refer to as ''a pain in the ass'' and who does patently stupid things like bringing a baby into the CTU office in midcrisis time because her nanny had to leave early. Chloe is a wonderful creation who'll turn out to be a stealth villain or a walking MacGuffin. Either way, Jack should, like any good torture-enduring middle manager, be paying less attention to the boss (i.e., the President) and more to his underlings -- the bitter, resentful employees without good day care! But Jack can never learn this lesson, because if he did, the clock would stop on ''24.''

"Yoga" is often described "the union of body and breath." Hatha yoga is a wellness practice that uses physical poses coordinated with breathing techniques and calming of the mind through relaxation and meditative techniques. Hatha yoga poses are often linked together into a flowing sequence. A consistent yoga practice improves flexibility and increases functional strength.

From guys who dine-and-ditch to ones who have an obsession with Hello Kitty (no, really!) -- these dates gone wrong will totally crack you up (64 Photos)
World Perspectives/Stone/Getty
One morning on my way to work, a tall, dark-haired guy stopped me, told me he felt an instant connection, and asked me out. I was a little weirded out, but also flattered -- so I gave him my number. The following Friday, we met for sushi. Mid-way through the date, he started telling me strange things, like that he can channel the energy of the moon and depart from his body to float around the room. Unsure how to respond, I asked him if he could fly around the restaurant. He replied that he was actually already doing so and was in the process of looking down my shirt at that very moment. I ended the date shortly thereafter -- but at least I got a funny story out of the whole thing.

I thought this was great. We had lump crab from Trader Joes (the canned kind) and decided to use it for this salad. The only difference I made was to add 1.5 tsp more of the chili powder and more lemon juice, about 1 T more. You can adjust the dressing to your taste while keeping the mayo amount the same. We loved this! Made it twice. Oh and on one occasion, we added a little bit of corn kernals. Another great addition is to add some Old Bay Seasoning. My husband preferred it this way.
I loved the idea of the "Crab Louis" style of this and looked forward to this twist with the orzo. Unfortunately, I was let down. While this was edibible, it certainly wasn't memorable. I tasted too much of the peppers and not enough of the dressing. Overall, the salad was rather nondescript, not exactly bursting with flavor, though it IS pretty and colorful. I used fresh lump crab meat and, since it is expensive, regret that I used it in a dish that was "just okay."
This is a tasty and refreshing salad. Easy to prepare and delicious. When I make this again, I will use slightly less green onion and I will add a pinch of Old Bay seasoning. It is great as is, though!

San Francisco Flower & Garden Show ReportMarch 22, 2013
I've had a fun past few days at the San Francisco Garden Show. I enjoyed visiting with friends & co-horts, speaking to a nearly full room of engaged audience members, and strolling the show floor. And, lucky me, in my spare moments I'd steal away to bask in the the warm California sunshine while my home in Seattle shivered under a dusting of early Spring snow.
Today I'm taking off on a brief NorCal weekend vacation to visit with friends & soak up some more sunshine, but before I do, here are a few shots from the show, which is open through the coming weekend. If you're able, make trip down. They've got the whole world spinning 'round, right on the showroom floor!
Northwest Flower and Garden Show 2013 Photo PeekFebruary 22, 2013
The 2013 Northwest Flower and Garden Show has been my obsession this week. I've been exploring the gardens, shopping, and soaking up great information at seminars over the last several days. While I have a moment to take a breather away from the convention center, I wanted to share a few fun photos from the showroom floor.
Remember: I'm talking on Sunday on gardening for pollinators, with tips to increase your edible crop yields. And, I'll be talking about garden design for attracting & helping wild bees as well as keeping honey and other bees in your own garden. Details here.
Here's our peek to whet your appetite before you head down today through Sunday:
What you'll notice right away: a lot of metal this year. Quite a few more manikins and stuffed animals than were necessary to tell a good story imho. (And no, I didn't spend a lot of time taking pictures of those things.) Too, the show gardens were nearly devoid of food, farming or anything in sync with the trending demand for urban homesteading. (Even though one sells its measly plantings as a food forest. Sure, there's some edible stuff, but barely.) All that being said – from my tired and probably grumpy perspective – there were quite a few great garden ideas, shopping deals and the seminars (as always) continue to be outstanding. Heck, if you want to learn about growing food, plan your seminar schedule right now. Chickens, Bees, edible plants, cocktail gardening & more are all the rage in the seminars!
Northwest Flower & Garden Show 2012 – It's a Wrap!February 13, 2012
The 2012 Northwest Flower & Garden Show ranks as one of the best in my book. And, I've been to a lot of them.
I promised myself I would spend much of the show planted in the seminar rooms. This was a rough winter for me, and I felt the need to find inspiration, ideas and wisdom from others in the industry.
And, that's exactly what I got.
Here's a few tasty tidbits selected from all of the amazing information and insights I sampled at the show this year:
Teresa O'Connor of Seasonal Wisdom shared some amazing stories about this history and medicinal uses of many common plants in her Edible Flowers seminar. Even I hadn't known that a species name 'Officinalis' means the plant had medicinal uses way back when.
Rebecca Sweet of Harmony in the Garden reminded me to extract color from my visuals when designing. This really helps see texture, form and big ole gaping holes.
Jessi Bloom, while clucking about gardening harmoniously with chickens, managed to slip in some amazing permiculture gardening tips. How much sense does it make that a plant known historically as "boneset" would be one that's able to extract an amazing amount of beneficial nutrient from the soil and store it in its leaves. Thanks for the comfry Jess and for your great new book Free Range Chicken Gardens!
Willi Galloway dove deep into the growing, harvesting and cooking she shares in her recently released Grow. Cook. Eat. book. I've already seeded favas so I can try out her amazing grilling technique that should really cut down on the labor required to enjoy this healthy crop. Oh, and if you've ever run out of inventive ideas for serving cucumber, know this book has what looks to be a new favorite recipe for me — gotta buy it to get the recipe!
Joe Lamp'l of Growing a Greener World reminded me of all the fantastic stories the show has told over the past two seasons, with another one coming right up. And, generous as always, he gave a great shout-out to everyone he could think of who has helped make the show what it is today — including me! Thanks Joe!
Dan Hinkley's slides before a full room began by reminding me that for the last several years, our local freezes have started earlier and earlier each year. And, many of the plants haven't been ready for it. Still, he shared a number of ultra-hearty, super-gorgeous plants that have not only survived but some, he said, seem to thrive with the extra chill — including a banana of all things. He did say he'd be happy to take audience members on plant explorations — only if they'll volunteer to be the leech bait. Hmmm…not sure how I'd do with that job. (more…)
Join Me at the NW Flower & Garden Show: Learn & Win!February 07, 2012
Whether you're a new gardener or a seasoned green thumb, I'd love to meet you at this year's Northwest Flower & Garden Show. On Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 10am, please join me at the show in the Rainier room for my seminar Mayhem, Murder & Must-Nots: Top 10 Maintenance Mistakes Gardeners Should Avoid.
Although this seminar is geared toward helping those new to gardening start off on the right foot, it's chock full of helpful hints that even the most seasoned gardeners will appreciate.
Plus, wait 'til you see all the "must-nots" photos I've collected for your booing pleasure!
Oh, and did I mention I'll be giving away an array of great tools to help every gardener steer clear of the must-nots? Donated by Fiskars (for whom I am a paid writer & gardening expert) and hand-picked by me, these are some of my favorite devices to enable gardeners of all skill levels work better.
Heck, even if you don't win one of the tools, you'll still come out a winner with lots of ideas to garden better & smarter for years to come!
I'll be covering everything from the soil beneath our feet to the tips of trees high above our heads and everything in between. So, please join me for this fun session.
Snickering, hissing & booing at your favorite images of gardens full of Murder & Mayhem encouraged! Please, leave your rotten tomatoes at home. We don't want to junk up the room before the one & only Galloping Gourmet (aka Graham Kerr) takes the stage right after me!
Northwest Flower & Garden Show – Seminars Galore!January 27, 2012
My last Garden Show post hinted at all the great seminars coming to this year's show. This post will drill down on my top ten must-see speakers. Coming up with just ten was near impossible given all the talent speaking at the show this year. Really, you won't go wrong plopping yourself down for any of the talks. If I could be in three places at once, I'd hit them all. That being said, in no particular order, here's my "I gotta hear'm" speaker list for the Northwest Flower & Garden Show 2012 Seminar Series:
- Rosalind Creasy: The grande dame of edible gardening will be speaking twice at this year's show. Both of her seminars focus on beautiful edible gardening, and both should be visually stunning and highly educational for garden-to-fork gardeners.
- Edible Landscaping: The New American Garden: Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 11:30am (Rainier Room)
- The Heirloom Garden: Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 11:30am (Rainier Room)
- Jayme Jenkins: Two things intrigue me about Jayme's hands-on learning session at the show: cocktails and an edible table. That's all I know, and I hope to make it to her session to learn how to create this living table. I'm guessing it'll grow edibles to put into cocktails, but I won't know for sure until I hit her seminar.
- Edibles Cubed: Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 5:15pm (DIY Stage)
- Teresa O'Connor:
I love flowers in my food. I don't think I've ever actually cooked a flower — except maybe an artichoke. I'm looking forward to learning more about edible flowers in this alluring session.
- The Allure of Edible Flowers: Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 9:30am (Hood Room)
- Willi Galloway: I've been waiting years for Willi's new book on growing, cooking and eating fresh from the garden. It's just been released, and what better way to get an intro (and a signed copy) than to let the author introduce it?
- Grow. Cook. Eat.: Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 1:30pm (Hood Room)
- Dan Hinkley: To be honest, I'd rather get out in the field with this intrepid plant explorer than sit in a room and listen to him talk. That being said, I'll take what I can get: Two seminars that should help us keep our gardens growing strong.
- Myths, Fables, Fantasies or Facts?: Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 4:00pm (Rainier Room)
- Survivors: Indianola: Friday, February 10, 2012 at 11:30am (Rainier Room)
- Jeff Lowenfels: A scientific look at why we should garden with less chemical inputs? Why yes. I'll take that!
- No More Chemicals in Your Garden!: Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 6pm (Hood Room)
- Joe Lamp'l: I've been behind the scenes of Growing a Greener World. I've been a guest, and I've written episodes. But, I'm certainly no Joe Gardener! Get Joe's unique take as the creator, star and producer of this ground-breaking show that goes beyond the garden. He's got some great tales to tell!
- Subaru Presents: Growing a Greener World: Friday, February 10, 2012 at 1pm (Rainier Room) & again on Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 12:45pm (Rainier Room) – also, just found out his book signing will happen on the sky bridge — look for the Subaru & you'll find him.
- Jessi Bloom: Chickens. Everybody wants chickens these days, but too often the dream becomes a nightmare. Fortunately, Jessi's experience with poultry has been compiled into a newly released book, which she'll be introducing in this seminar. Think you want chickens? Be sure in this seminar — before you order up a dozen cute little chicks!
- What the Cluck?: Part 1: Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 3:15pm (Hood Room) & Part 2: Sunday, February 12, 2012 at 1:30pm (Hood Room)
Fiskars tools as well? The Right tool really can make all the difference in getting the job done right!
Robin Haglund: Yes, I will plug my seminar. I've worked hard to build a presentation that will help beginners (and even some pro's) to be better gardeners. Expect lots of photos and an information-filled, fast-paced talk looking at ways to avoid huge, costly gardening mistakes BEFORE they happen. Oh, and did I mention, I'll be giving away generously donated
- Mayhem, Murder & Must-Nots: Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 10am (Rainier Room)
- Richard Bitner: In the last year or so, I've been falling back in love with conifers. My hope is that this seminar will introduce some great selections for disease resistance as well as smaller spaces.
- Gardening with Conifers: Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 11am (Hood Room)
- Rosalind Creasy: The grande dame of edible gardening will be speaking twice at this year's show. Both of her seminars focus on beautiful edible gardening, and both should be visually stunning and highly educational for garden-to-fork gardeners.
Northwest Flower & Garden Show 2012 – What Not to Miss!January 25, 2012
We're just a few days away from the 2012 Northwest Flower & Garden Show. This is my must-not-miss timeline list for the 2012 show, which runs from February 8-12, 2012:
Next »
- Tuesday, February 7th, 5-9:30pm: Yep, starting the night before the show opens to the general public is the Gala Preview Opening, which benefits the Seattle Arboretum Foundation. For as little as $65/person, you can sip wine while getting up-close & personal with the gardens and garden creators. Hob-nob with the best-of-the-best in the international horty world, and bid on some pretty amazing silent auction deals.
- Everyday at the show: Okay, so the timeline idea doesn't work perfectly for this post, so let's talk about what to see everyday — in addition to the amazing show gardens & shopping:
- PlayGarden: This area isn't just for kids! Get in there and touch some soil. Dance around. Sing a song. And have a blast. In years past, when speakers and entertainers were only available on the weekends in the kids area, I enjoyed doing hands-0n teaching with kids here. Now kids can learn hands-on all day long everyday in this space. Last year's Charlotte's Web theme kicked off a new way for kids to experience the show, and it was a hit — packed to the gills with kids, parents & learning all day long. This year they're continuing in that vein with a Rockin' Robin theme — a song after this Robin's heart!
- Great Plant Picks: If you're struggling with finding rock-solid plant performers in the Pacific Northwest, a great place to start is with a few bits of flora from this ever-evolving list of greats. A new list comes out every year just in time for the Northwest Flower & Garden Show, so stop by their booth to get the word on the latest & greatest!
- Container Show: When you cross the skybridge, be sure to take the time to look closely at all of the amazing container designs lining the glass walls. Last year, our fabulously talented client Mari put together a stellar design, which took the Best Re-Characterization award. I can't wait to see who does what in 2012!
- Seminars: Let's just say that this is where you'll find me during most of the show. I'm making it a personal mission to learn by sitting down and listing to others. Within a few days, I'll post my list of I gotta hear'm speakers. For now, I'll shamelessly remind you that I will be speaking on Saturday morning at the show. I'll be addressing Mayhem, Murder & Must-nots: Top 10 Maintenance Mistakes Gardeners Should Avoid. You'll get lots of photos, ideas and may even win some free tool giveaways to help you garden to the best of your potential! (We'll talk more about those giveaway goodies in a forthcoming post specific to the amazing seminar lineup.)

RegExr v2: Build, Test, & Learn RegEx
Posted on March 26, 2014 by Grant Skinner, 24 Comments
RegExr is exactly six years old today. Built in Flex and AS3, it was a largely accidental outcome of exploring a few technical concepts I was interested in at the time (tokenizers/lexers, advanced text interactions, regular expressions).
I thought the end result might be useful to others struggling to learn or work with RegEx, so I released it online. Its popularity took me by surprise, with around 10M hits and 150K patterns saved to date. This is despite being essentially abandoned since 2008.
I'm happy to announce that the neglect is finally ending, with today's release of RegExr v2. Rebuilt from scratch in HTML/JS, and (hopefully) improved in every way. I'd like to believe that RegExr v2 is the best way to learn, build and test RegEx online today.
Key features:
I also dug through over 240 comments on the original blog post, and implemented a ton of suggestions:
Now that it's released, we're going to try not to let it stagnate again. The first order of business is to clean up the code and commit it to the RegExr GitHub repo, so that it becomes a living project with community support.
We're also going to try to clean up the existing community patterns – likely scrubbing any that now have errors (due to differences in AS3 and JS for example).
Following that, I'm going to be taking a look at different options for wrapping it in a desktop installer, so you can run it offline and save your favourites locally (input on this is welcome). I'd also love to make it usable on mobile devices, not because I think there's a huge demand for testing regular expressions on mobile phones, but as a challenge to see if it can be done well – I think the "click to insert" feature of the reference library could work really well.
I'm also planning to write up a blog post exploring some of the technical challenges and decisions that we made while building this.
If you enjoy using RegExr, you can help out by tweeting, facebooking, gPlussing, blogging, or otherwise sharing/linking to it so others can find it. Version 1 disappeared almost completely from Google a few months ago (I believe they downgraded pages with only Flash content), and I'd really like it to recover in the rankings.
As always, I'd love to hear what you think of the new version of RegExr, and any feedback on how to make it even better.

WebGL Support in EaselJS + Mozilla Sponsors CreateJS
Posted on January 16, 2014 by Grant Skinner, 1 Comment
We're absolutely thrilled to welcome Mozilla in joining Adobe, Microsoft, and AOL to the roster of CreateJS sponsors!
We've been working with the Firefox OS team to ensure our libraries are well-supported and valuable tools for app and game creation on Firefox OS.
The first big announcement as a result of this collaboration, is WebGL Support for EaselJS (currently in public beta on GitHub), which is supported in both the browser and application contexts of Firefox OS (as well as other WebGL-enabled browsers). In our tests, we've managed to to draw a subset of 2D content up to 50x faster than is currently possible on the Canvas 2D Context. You can learn more about our WebGL implementation on the Mozilla Hacks or CreateJS blogs.
Be sure to let us know what you think in the EaselJS Community forum.
Welcome Mozilla, and a huge thank-you to all our amazing sponsors!

Embedding JS Script Tags in WordPress Posts
Posted on April 2, 2013 by Grant Skinner, 6 Comments
When you include javascript in a WordPress post, WP automatically applies formatting to the script tag's contents, causing script errors. This has led to a large number of workarounds, including: plugins, using custom fields, including every script as a separate JS file, and stripping empty lines from the script (to prevent WP from injecting paragraph tags).
I wanted a solution that would let me quickly inject JS directly into my post content, and wouldn't require any special prep or have dependencies on third party plugins. After unsuccessfully hunting the web for an answer, I came up with a simple approach that uses a pre tag to prevent WordPress from formatting my code:
Then just add the following to your site styles to prevent the pre tag from displaying:
It's crazy simple and the script executes properly. I'm kind of shocked that I didn't run into this approach at all in my search. It makes me worry a bit that there's some glaring flaw with it, but so far it seems to be working great.
Hopefully this saves someone else some time and frustration.
Note: there's a chance you may need to disable "Settings > Writing > WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically" to prevent WP from encoding characters in your code. I have it disabled normally, but in limited testing I didn't see any problems with it enabled.

Spelling Plus Library Open Sourced
Posted on March 5, 2013 by Lanny McNie, 4 Comments
We would like to let everyone know that Spelling Plus Library (aka SPL), our Flash/Flex spell-checking library has been released open source.
We first released SPL as a commercial component over 6 years ago, with a major overhaul to support the Text Layout Framework almost 4 years later. It was always our goal to provide a high quality, performant, and feature rich product, backed by great support. As the requirements of the industry have shifted, and the demand for Flash components has dropped, we felt it was a great time to release it to the community at large.
The entire SPL repository is now available under an MIT license, meaning it is free to use for everyone, including on commercial projects. This includes:
Thanks to our supporters over the years, we are super proud of what SPL has accomplished, and hope that it will continue to see life moving forward.
New versions of CreateJS released!
Posted on February 13, 2013 by sebastian.derossi, 2 Comments
Wow. What a difference of couple of years makes. Most of you have noticed a shift in the industry over the last two years towards HTML5 — instead of running away from this change, we've embraced it. Our response was CreateJS: a collection of Javascript libraries that allow us to create the same high quality experience and quick turnaround that we are known for.
Not only has the framework been a major part of our development, but some great tools have been created to improve user workflow, such as ToolKit for CreateJS and Zoë.
We are happy to announce new versions of the CreateJS Libraries, available now on the CreateJS CDN and GitHub.
This update includes a new common event model, vastly improved documentation, and a ton of new features and fixes for each library. For specific information on the changes, please review the VERSIONS.txt file in the relative GitHub repositories.
We have also introduced a minified CreateJS library to the CDN, containing all the latest libraries in one handy file.
With this release, we are happy to announce the launch of the CreateJS blog, which will provide a centralized location for announcements and articles about the libraries. Read more about the update to the CreateJS libraries here.
Thank you all for testing, feedback, contributions, and bug reports…keep them coming!

Cristiano Ronaldo
Professional football player Cristiano Ronaldo was born on Feb. 5, 1985, in Funcahl, Madeira, Portugal, and is named after former president Ronald Reagan because he was his father's favorite actor. As an amateur, Cristiano was first spotted by former Liverpool F.C. manger Gerard Houllier at age 16 and was signed by Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon in August 2003 for 12,240,000 pounds. Ronaldo made his Manchester United debut against the Bolton Wanderers and scored his first goal against Portsmouth F.C. at Old Trafford.

SoLost: Bo Bartlett's Magic World
Bo Bartlett is an American original. A realist painter with a deliciously surreal touch, the Columbus, Georgia-born artist was a protégé and life-long friend of Andrew Wyeth. His haunting and epic tableaux evoke a Hopper-like sense of longing and mystery combined with a Lynchian-cocktail of menace, beauty, and stranger-than-fiction reality.
A natural traveler with an entire planet of subject matter to pick from, it might surprise some to learn that Bartlett chooses to spend several months each year painting in the modest Columbus, Georgia, home he grew up in—to paint, no less, in the very bedroom that was his as a child. But it is in fact the place where Bartlett goes each winter, and where some of his most vital work is born.
"It's a magic world," says Bo, and indeed it is. Come see where some of it is born....

(CNN) -- A U.S. Navy training jet crashed while approaching a runway in Pensacola, Florida, on Monday morning, according to a Navy statement.
"The two crew members are being treated at local hospitals right now," Navy spokewoman Lt. Lauryn Dempsey said. "Both are stable."
The two-seater T-45C Goshawk jet, assigned to Training Squadron 86, was on a training flight when it crashed near the end of a runway at Naval Air Station Pensacola at 10:30 a.m., the Navy statement said.
The Navy has not released the names of the pilots.

John Krasinski's time on NBC's comedy The Office is almost over, and the handsome actor is already keeping busy with film projects. But Kransinski will forever be grateful for the opportunity to play Jim Halpert.
After nine seasons as Dunder Mifflin's resident prankster and voice of reason, Krasinski admits that he nearly quit acting altogether before landing the pivotal role in 2005. He was ready to give up performing until his mother convinced him to keep going, Krasinski told the Today show on Dec. 3.
Seven years later, Krasinski, 33, is not only acting, he's also directed and written screenplays -- and he's married to a fellow actor, British beauty Emily Blunt, whom he wed in July 2010.
"It's a little bit of an existential crisis after a while, because I wouldn't have met my wife, I wouldn't have been out in L.A.," he told Matt Lauer. "Truly, when I say the show has given me everything, it's given me everything."
Although this is the final season for The Office, Krasinski's future in Hollywood includes collaborations with Academy Award winner Matt Damon and his Good Will Hunting director Gus Van Sant.
Krasinski, who co-wrote the script for Van Sant's new drama Promised Land with Damon, explained to Lauer that the two acting pals had to write around Damon's full house.
"I just drove to his house every weekend. He wins by default with four little girls, and so that's a very busy house that I have to go to him," Krasinski explained of working with the star. "We actually wrote with children climbing all over him, and he was doing bath time and dinner and everything, and we still got it done."
