How to Get Rid of a Cut on Your Face
If you have a cut, scrape, or had light surgery on your face - following the steps outlined below will help your face heal quicker and prevent scarring.
1Wash your face gently! This will get all the germs out of your cutting leaving it clean and ready to heal.Ad
2Immediately afterward. Apply a topical ointment such as Vaseline. Do not use Neosporin for longer than two days. Vaseline is what most Dermatologists will recommend.
3Keep the wound covered with Vaseline and a bandage during week one. Use Q-Tips and apply gently so as not to upset the newly forming skin. Replace the Vaseline and bandage about four times a day the first week.
4Be patient. Try and leave the newly formed skin intact rather than cleaning it out - it may come out when it is ready after about four days, or it may not if you are really careful. If it does by accident, it will replace itself rather quickly. Just be very, very gentle the first four/five days. You can try and "lace" on the Vaseline to avoid scrubbing the healing skin out of the cut (whip the Q-Tip quickly back and forth inside the canister and it will lace across the Q-Tip head.)
5What to expect. Do not worry about what friends, family and co-workers will say about wearing a bandage on your face for a week. Tell them "I could wear this for a week and have no scar, and you will have forgotten all about it in a month . . . or I could have a permanent scar for the rest of my life." (the choice is simple - choose healing over regret)
6Change your diet and personal care! Try and eat protein shakes or take Amino Acid supplements and eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.
- Drink plenty of water, and stay rested.
- Avoid strenuous activity the first week or two.
- Avoid alcohol (it will slow the healing process because it taxes your white blood cells.)
- Have a better sleeping schedule. Before bed, always replace with a fresh Vaseline/bandage coverage.
- Showering. Be very careful in the shower that the water does not blast the wound and wash out the newly forming skin. Also, do not dry the area when exiting the shower, and let the inflammation from the hot water settle down for about 3-5 minutes post-shower before applying Vaseline/bandage. DO NOT use any type of facial mask or exfoliant anywhere near the cut!
7Keep the wound area moist by covering with a small dab of Vaseline in week two. This means carrying around a small container of it with a handful of Q-Tips. Wrap the Q-Tips in a tissue and place a rubber band around it to keep them clean and from unraveling.
- Sleeping - For the second week, keep covering with Vaseline and a bandage before bed to avoid upsetting the area.
8Know that you should be in the clear now during week three. If not, continue the "Week two" instructions until the area is completely healed. When it is, gently massage in the morning and before bed using facial moisturizer. This will prevent further scarring be preventing collagen buildup.
9Know that week four, you have probably forgotten you had a cut, and if you followed these procedures, you will most likely have no trace of the event. This procedure works very well for facial laser treatments, spots, acne scars, sebaceous cyst removal, mole removal, scar removal, and cuts just about anywhere else on the body.Ad

- Make sure your cut is not infected. Apply a topical antiseptic and bandage to avoid this.
- Always keep your hands clean because you don't want any germs from your hands to spread to the cut which will cause it to take longer to heal.
- Don't peel of the scab, there will be a scar.
- Egg whites and lemon made in to a face mask is really good for spotty skin leave in on till it's dry then rinse it off with warm water.
- If you pour water in it it will hurt.
- Cuts can lead to infection, so watch the injury closely until it heals.

MIM-104 Patriot surface-to-air missile
(United States)Notes: A common replacement for the MIM-23 Hawk and MIM-14 Nike-Hercules, the Patriot entered service in 1984, after a protracted development that began with the 1964 "SAM-D" program. The Patriot is the only SAM to have successfully been used in the ABM (anti-ballistic missile) role during actual combat. As of July 2007, more than 12,000 have been produced.
The missile itself is a single-stage Thiokol solid-fueled rocket with a SARH-homing seeker underneath a fused-silica radome. In addition to the rocket, Patriots contain a complete battery-powered electrical system powering hydraulic motors for the control fins. The MIM-104B version adds an anti-radiation backup to home on "Wild Weasel" aircraft. The MIM-104C/D/E have new features to improve performance against ballistic missiles. The "Patriot PAC-3" project is almost a completely new missile; intended solely for the ABM role with very limited anti-aircraft potential. It incorporates a Ka-band active onboard radar.
Patriots are launched from a four-round towed M-901 launcher. (the PAC-3 fits four missiles to a canister, for a total of sixteen per launcher). The missiles are "wooden rounds" meaning the canisters are factory-sealed requiring no maintenance. The M-901 can "ripple" fire a Patriot every 4.2 seconds.
The Patriot's radar is the AN/MPQ-53 G-band phased-array system with IFF subsystem (AN/MPQ-65 for PAC-3). The AN/MPQ-53 has 5000 separate 1 ½" antennas and a range of 60NM. It can track 100 targets simultaneously. The whole system is controlled from a AN/MSQ-104 Engagement Control Station. This NBC-sealed control centre communicates with the other components via fibre-optic cables or a secure UHF datalink. The complete system is powered by a twin 150kW diesel generator with 75gal fuel tanks.
The launchers and power plant are towed by M-983 HEMTT trucks. An additional HEMTT (called "the scorpion tail") has a crane to remove expended canisters and install fresh ones. A Patriot unit can transition from travel mode to firing posture in 45 minutes. All of the battalion's components can be transported by C-5 Galaxy planes.
Each MIM-104 battalion consists of one AN/MSQ-104, one radar, one generator truck, a maintenenace company, and six M-901 launchers. About 600 men are needed for each battalion.
In 2012, the US Army will begin transitioning to the MEADS SAM system, which will incorporate the PAC-3 missile and unspecified other components.
COST: Each individual missile costs between $1-3 million, depending on the version. The radar costs about $48 million. The AN/MSQ-104 costs about $6 million. Each HEMTT in the battalion adds another $150,000.
USERS: United States, Germany, Greece, Israel, Japan, Kuwait, Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan
Operation Desert Storm: The Patriot's debut came during Desert Storm, where 42 Iraqi ballistic missiles were engaged. At the time of the cease-fire, President George HW Bush stated that the MIM-104 had a kill rate of 97%. The US Army shortly thereafter downgraded this to 80% in the Gulf theatre and 50% over Israel. In April 1992, a MIT study stated that the actual overall success rate was "under 10%". However later that year a Harvard study determined that 33% of the targets engaged were struck and 25% destroyed. This study is now generally accepted as the definitive rate.
A reason for the discrepancies is that many "intercepted" missiles were not destroyed, with the Patriot's proximity-fused warhead splitting the SRBM's warhead off but not destroying it. This was compounded by the fact that Iraq's al-Hussein and "Scud" SRBMs tended to disintegrate during their descent, and the AN/MPQ-53 often locked on to the tumbling fuel tank instead of the warhead. The performance over Israel was also affected by that nation's dense population which meant that missed warheads were more likely to hit cities.
A small silver lining was the psychological impact of the MIM-104, especially in Israel where intercepts (actually successful or otherwise) were often carried on live television. Finally, however low the rate may have been, the Patriot is the first weapon in history to have defeated a ballistic missile in battle.
Operation Iraqi Freedom: The MIM-104 deployed again to the Gulf in 2003, keeping pace with US amroured units including the final assault on Baghdad. Patriots were credited with eight confirmed SRBM downings (al-Samoud II and Ababil-100 types) for an unknown number of firings. However, the Patriot was involved in three "friendly fire" tragedies: A RAF Tornado (mistaken for an incoming missile) and a USN F/A-18 Hornet (crew error). Conversely, a USAF F-16 Falcon attacked a 101st Airborne Division MIM-104 battalion (the same one which downed the Hornet) with an AGM-88 HARM after mistaking it for a SA-2 "Guideline" SAM. The battalion's AN/MPQ-53 was destroyed but no soldiers were killed.

Inventors Shawn Frayne and Alex Hornstein are looking to revolutionize the business of small-scale solar panels with The Solar Pocket Factory, a backyard photovoltaic panel printing system. Successfully funded by a Kickstarter campaign, the two have placed themselves at the forefront of the micro solar movement, which aims to cheaply and quickly produce small PV panels.
Enthusiastic about all things solar, inventors Shawn Frayne and Alex Hornstein have built everything from lights to USB distribution grids. Through the process of designing and manufacturing their products, they found that the micro solar panels they used to power their devices were brittle, expensive, and poorly made. Taking matters into their own hands, they traveled the world and spent months researching current models. They found that half of the cost of conventional panels lay in their assembly, as many parts of the body are pieced and soldered by hand. They also observed that 15% of panels contained flaws from imperfect soldering, and in many cases, the materials used were cut-rate and disintegrated over the period of a few years.
They figured that if they could automate the production, they could eliminate 25% of the price tag and reducing the number of defects. By using higher quality materials, they could also create panels that are more efficient, gather more light, and last longer. The result of their labor is The Solar Pocket Factory, a small automated machine that can churn out panels on a smaller scale than a sprawling factory. The device resembles a desktop 3D printer, and the team hopes to have a full working model completed by April. When finished, the Solar Pocket Factory will be able to churn out a panel every 15 seconds – that means that just one machine could potentially power 1 million devices each year! Viva la revolucion!

Best eating can be found... We found the best baguettes & coffee at L'Encas Patiserie, restaurant strip Baie de Citrons. Best dining was to be found at the Brasserie Tanmkauser (?) at 10, rue Jules Garnier, Point Plaisance - dining room open 7 - 11pm. Reasonable prices and tasty food. It's difficut to get something to eat from about 130pm - 3pm as a lot of shops close. We also found that it's best to eat early at night as most places will start to wind down about 830pm.

Latino Health Insurance Program (LHIP)
A Good Idea
In response to the high rate of uninsured among the Latino population of Massachusetts, the Latino Health Insurance Program was developed and implemented in the East Boston area, a region of high Latino population. Trusted local community leaders are enrolled as case managers and culturally specific methods of outreach and education are used. The program is based on other successful models, but is unique for its use of community health workers. Case managers conduct outreach to local Latino community members and enrolled participants attend educational sessions twice a month for five months at trusted community sites. The educational sessions provide information about Massachusetts' new health law and new health insurance plans offered by the state. Case managers conduct one-on-one visits with participants, when necessary, to assist in completing forms and obtaining documentation. The program established communication with the East Boston Community Health Center and the Boston Public Health Commission for referrals and primary care provision for new participants. The program continues to serve the Boston Latino community and was expanded in 2008.
Goal / Mission
To create a health insurance access program that reduces barriers to obtaining insurance to care for Latinos in Boston.
Results / Accomplishments
Case managers were recruited using signs in public housing developments and also through referrals from community agencies. Six case managers were recruited in the year-one pilot phase of the program. Case managers conducted face-to-face outreach through door-to-door canvassing and at community sites such as salons, laudromats and restaurants. All oral and written communication was available in Spanish and English. During the one-year pilot, 104 out of 130 adults and all 100 children were enrolled in state health insurance programs. Retention was near 100% after a year. The groups with highest participation were Dominican and Salvadoran. Case managers also assisted participants in enrolling in food stamps programs, applying for Social Security benefits for disabled children and enrolling in citizenship classes. They also referred them to local agencies providing assistance with home heating. For medical legal issues, participants were referred to Health Law Advocates, pro bono attorneys.

This is a common question of a youth coach or parent of a young pitcher. The question is really pretty straight forward, but the answer actually involves many variables that need to be considered. The first thing you must realize is that it's an important issue. We see kids falling and bouncing back up, they rarely seem to pull a muscle or have other aches and pains that we, as adults, have become used to. Kids seem to bounce back quickly from most everything, so does it really matter if their arm is a little sore from pitching? Yes, it does matter! The pitching motion puts a large amount of strain on the throwing arm, particularly on the shoulder and elbow. I personally remember that 3 of the best pitchers from my little league never pitched in high school because they had hurt their arms before they ever reached that level. Now I don't know if it had anything to do with how many pitches they were allowed to throw or not, but the point is that young arms are developing and fragile and need to be taken care of. Kids will do pretty much what they are told, so it's up to parents and coaches to make sure that a pitcher's arm is taken care of.
It's obvious that youth baseball leagues are concerned with reducing injuries for pitchers by placing a limit on the number of innings that can be pitched in a game and in a week. Many parents and coaches wonder if the league guidelines are enough to provide the proper protection for developing players? In my opinion (and many others) the answer is no.
I'll give you an example from a prior season. I showed up at one of my son's little league playoff games in the 4th inning. The opposing team was in the field and my son's team was up by a run. I watched the opposing pitcher start to tire in the 5th inning and was surprised when he trotted back out there in the 6th. He really struggled that inning but managed to finish the game. His team lost and then I found out that not only did he pitch the 3 innings I saw, but he had pitched the whole game! I looked at the score book and estimated that he had thrown between a 130-150 pitches. He was 9. Now the league rules permitted him to throw 6 innings that week, but didn't have a limit on maximum innings per game. Were the league rules enough to protect this young pitcher? It seems clear that in this case the answer was no.
Most youth leagues have a limit based on innings, but many experts think the limit should be based on pitch count. In the previous example the number of innings (although high) was a poor measure as compared to pitch count. The American Sports Medicine Institute (ASMI) was commissioned by the USA Baseball Medical & Safety Advisory Committee to study pitch limits in youth baseball. ASMI sent out surveys to 85 baseball experts (including orthopedic surgeons and coaches) and received 28 responses. Although the number of responses wasn't large, it still provided enough data for ASMI to put together some pitch count guidelines. The results of the survey found that the number of pitches thrown is more important than the number of innings thrown and "Number of pitches is more important than number of innings when determining rest requirements". Some of the results from the survey and a link to the report are listed on page 2.
While this survey provides some good information for coaches to consider, I was left wondering how youth coaches are currently handling their pitchers and if they are provided training opportunities within their leagues. Those questions led to a QCBaseball survey that I posted on the site asking for feedback from youth coaches. The results of this survey can be found on page 3.

'Wicked Tuna' and' 'Brain Games' score big viewership for Nat Geo
By April Neale Apr 24, 2013, 0:40 GMT
Record Monday Night Follows Highest Rated Wicked Tuna Episode Sunday Scoring a 0.8 P 2554, More Than 1.2 Million Viewers
What's a winning combo for your grey matter?
Tuna and Brain Games, especially for National Geographic Channel as the combo of TV series "Wicked Tuna" and "Brain Games" added up to big ratings for the network.
From NGC:
Brain Games Sets Monday Record with Double Premieres Averaging 0.9 P 2554 and
1.5 Million Total Viewers
Record Monday Night Follows Highest Rated Wicked Tuna Episode Sunday
Scoring a 0.8 P 2554, More Than 1.2 Million Viewers
Official release:
National Geographic Channels ratings momentum springs ahead as the new series Brain Games debuts as the highest rated series premiere in network history Monday, following the highest rated episode of Wicked Tuna Sunday night. This comes after last weeks ratings success of the three-night, six-hour event, The 80s: The Decade That Made Us. (For more information, visit www.ngcpr.com and follow us on Twitter @ngc_pr.)
The Monday night premiere of Brain Games launched with two episodes at 9 and 9:30 p.m. ET/PT averaging a 0.9 P 2554, delivering 1.5 million viewers and setting a record as the highest rated series launch in channel history. The first episode delivered a 0.9 P 2554, 1.2 HH and nearly 1.6 million total viewers with the second one following close behind with 0.9 P 2554, 1.1 HH and nearly 1.5 million total viewers. Brain Games was renewed for a second season even before Monday nights premiere, with production expected to begin this summer.
Wicked Tuna on Sunday night scored a series-high 0.8 P 2554, 1.0 HH and more than 1.2 million viewers. This marks the top-rated episode in the two-season history of the popular franchise-making series, which was already renewed for a third season expected to begin filming later this spring.
This follows last weeks impressive ratings for The 80s: The Decade That Made Us, which scored a 0.8 HH rating and a 0.6 P 2554 from Sunday, April 14, at 8 and 9 p.m. to Tuesday, April 16, at 9 and 10 p.m. ET/PT.
I have stated before that National Geographic Channel intends to run toward smart and we are thrilled the viewers decided to join us, said David Lyle, CEO of the National Geographic Channels. This success continues our momentum driven by a strategy of giving our viewers original, authentic and most importantly entertaining programming that embodies the spirit of this brand.
This incredible 1-2-3 ratings punch is a testament to the work of our dynamic team here at the channel, said Howard T. Owens, president of National Geographic Channel. And the great news is, we still have more to come with the May launches of Ultimate Survival Alaska and Life Below Zero.
The premiere of Brain Games was accompanied by a robust marketing campaign and the launch of an interactive website at www.natgeotv.com/braingames.
Brain Games was hailed by critics as tremendous fun and makes science entertaining, and fans on Twitter joined the chorus, calling the show mind blowing and coolest show on tv. The new series explores a world where time slows down, reality is an illusion and things arent always as they seemthe human brain. Host and wonder junkie Jason Silva (@JasonSilva) and deception specialist Apollo Robbins (@ApolloRobbins) size up the human brain with an intricate series of interactive experiments to see how easily the brain can be fooled, uncovering the surprising nature of how we process information, feel emotions and perceive the world around us. Get ready for lots of mind-blowing illusions, games and challenges that will make you question whether seeing is actually believing.
As the second season of Wicked Tuna draws to a close in a thrilling two-part season finale, only one captain will walk away the winner. Cocky young captain Tyler McLaughlin aboard Pin Wheel (@PinWheelFV) runs neck and neck with last years bluefin champion, Dave Carraro (@TunaDotCom) of FV-Tuna.com, threatening to unceremoniously swipe his title, while new captain Paul Hebert (@PissahTunaPaul) edges closer to his astounding goal of catching $50,000 worth of bluefin as a standalone captain aboard the Lisa and Jake. For more information, www.natgeotv.com/wickedtuna.
Brain Games continues Mondays at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Wicked Tunas two-part season finale begins Sunday, May 5, at 9 p.m. ET/PT and concludes Sunday, May 12, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
Brain Games is produced for National Geographic Channel by National Geographic Television (NGT). For NGT, Jerry Kolber is executive producer. For NGC, Lynn Sadofsky is vice president of production and development, Allan Butler is executive producer, executive vice president of programming is Michael Cascio and president is Howard T. Owens.

The writers of this blog are not music critics, and they don't consider a second (or third, fourth or fifth) mortgage to be a perfectly reasonable course of action to pay for front-row tickets, but despite being a whole lot more middle aged than they were when they first put \x34Born in the U.S.A.\x34 or \x34The River\x34 down on the turntable, still feels like Bruce has something -- OK, a lot of things -- to say about our country and the way we live our lives, things that not a lot of other artists are saying. And whether he's talking about the knife that can cut this pain from your heart, the house that's waiting for you to walk in or what that flag flying over the courthouse means, he's nailing down feelings that are so universal that they can raise your spirits and break your heart at the same time. Plus, let�s face it, the man rocks.

It�s safe to say that those of us turned off by the repetitive sheen of most top 40 pop have welcomed the acoustic revolution spearheaded by the likes of Mumford & Sons and The Lumineers. On the other hand, anyone reared on rock �n� roll can�t help but find himself longing, at least a little bit, for a world beyond the banjos and mandolins. Doesn�t anybody own an amp anymore?
With that as the backdrop, Kingsley Flood�s new LP, �Battles,� arrives with a wild, welcome kick. The Boston group�s 2010 LP �Dust Windows� had more of a traditional Americana feel, but last year�s EP �Colder Still� started to incorporate indie rock elements into their rustic sound.
With �Battles,� they�ve made the full leap into guitar-based rock while holding on to their down-home authenticity. That�s a trick for any band, particularly a young one, and it�s hard to overstate exactly how well Kingsley Flood does it here.
A good portion of the credit has to go to George Hall�s stellar guitar work, which is accomplished without being showy � it jangles through tracks like the Mersey-tinged �Sun�s Gonna Let Me Shine,� while on the driving �Down,� his psychedelic bursts complement Chris Barrett�s trumpet blasts to pull the song squarely into the stratosphere. As for the sort-of title track �Pick Your Battles,� Hall�s hopped-up blues riffs combine with Naseem Khuri�s roiling garage-rock keyboards to searing effect.
But none of this would be half as effective if the songs weren�t actually about something. Kingsley Flood�s secret weapon is Khuri�s pitch-perfect lyrics, which pack an incredible breadth of imagery and emotion into their spare stanzas, delivered in a quirky, urgent rasp that anchors them solidly in the here and now. The songs on �Battles� speak to a modern American dream that�s constantly in danger of being pulled under by forces beyond our control, from inside and out.
In fact, Khuri�s lyrics actually owe a lot to Springsteen, with their references to inner struggles and sullen fathers, not to mention dirty hands and bills unpaid. In that vein, �Waiting On The River To Rise� is a perfectly realized painting of a man struggling to keep afloat despite God�s apparent indifference: �Scratch tickets on my shelf, stains on my knees, pennies in my well,� he sings. �I got faith in faith, because the other choice is no choice at all.�
On other tracks, he grapples with the lure of voices that tell him to �get low� � �I�ll hold up high my chin and welcome sin on in,� he sings on �Sun�s Gonna Let Me Shine,� and among the jaunty piano, strings and horns on �King�s Men,� he seems to accept the inevitability of a great fall: �Look in the broken mirror; it�s only a matter of time.�
Broken mirrors, bent knees and chins raised in the face of inescapable adversity pop up frequently on �Battles,� with some of the most effective imagery coming during the disc�s quieter moments: On �Sigh A While,� Khuri sings of �our eyes on the horizon, but a lollipop stuck to the floor,� his quietly desperate vocals perfectly counter-pointed by Jenee Morgan�s sweetly realized harmonies.
Such ambitious songwriting is always in danger of sliding into the obtuse, and it happens on occasion here. �The sleepwalker never falls down, the wax wing never hits the ground,� Khuri sings cryptically on �Habit,� one of the album�s few meandering tracks.
But for the most part, �Battles� has just the right combination of uncompromising lyrical heft and explosive musicality, and stands to position Kingsley Flood as the ideal rock act for the new millennium: a little kinder than some, perhaps, but by no means gentler.

Cop hit by bus while arresting man who swore at mayor
BY ROSEMARY SOBOL Staff Reporter firstname.lastname@example.com May 14, 2011 7:50PM
Updated: August 27, 2011 12:33AM
A Chicago Police officer was struck by a CTA bus while chasing a man who allegedly swore at Mayor Daley as he was leaving City Hall Friday for the last time as mayor.
About 4:45 p.m. Friday, as a crowd gathered to watch Daley say goodbye to City Hall, Janusz Kopycinski, 30, allegedly yelled "F - - - the mayor,'' police said.
Kopycinski ran, followed by police officers. As he was being arrested, a male officer was grazed by a moving CTA bus, police said.
The officer was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital with non life-threatening injuries, police said.
Kopycinski, of the 6500 block of West Wellington, was charged with three counts of resisting arrest, two counts of disorderly conduct and one count of reckless conduct. He was arrested in 2007 for battery to police.

Search Engine Yandex Gets More Personal, And More Semantic, Too
Search engine Yandex this week added personalization capabilities for Eastern European users' search results. It analyses their online behavior including their search history, clicks on search results, and language preferences for its suggestions.
Kaliningrad is the name of the latest edition of Yandex' personalized search engine. It uses that information to make suggestions and rank search results individually tailored for each user, showing book lovers that do a search on Harry Potter links related to the books, while those who prefer movies get film-oriented link fare.
Semantic markup didn't play a role in the development of the technology, Yandex technical product manager and developer advocate Alexander Shubin says. But it can be applied for future enhancements, he notes. The new personalization reportedly leverages Yandex' machine-learning-based query and search results algorithms "Spectrum" and "MatrixNet" to train the results to users' requirements.
That said, Yandex has been diving deeper into semantic web waters. Beyond taking advantage of sites using schema.org markup to improve the display of search results, Shubin provides this update: "We enhanced our markup validator to understand all the markup (Open Graph, schema.org, RDFa, microformats). It is universal now (as Google's or Bing's instruments)."

''Laguna Beach'': Stephen and LC's alone time
Following last week's pointless sham of an episode, Laguna Beach came back with one of its strongest and most heartrending chapters to date: the birthday show! Through the eternal irony of God (or the show's producers), it just so happens mortal enemies LC and Kristin celebrate their days of birth at the same time and, consequently, in different places. Thus, this season's narrator had to split screen time with her rival. Finally, we got to see the payoff that the move to San Francisco has failed to deliver: Stephen and LC together, miles away from Kristin.
Meanwhile, with Stephen in another country and incapable of making his awkward advances to Kristin (or so we think), we could enjoy the start of what seems to be this year's dramatic love triangle. Kristin-Taylor-Talan cat-scratch fever has begun, my friends. And Kristin's more feline than ever (let's call her the Cheetah!), excluding Taylor from her party.
But Ms. Taylor wasn't too destroyed by the news, because she actually went out to dinner with Talan. (And let's not forget, during her predate primping, her mother's timeless maternal query: ''Do you think he'll try to kiss you?'' It's one thing for Lo to force-feed plot-driving questions to LC last week, but to hear someone's mother act so intrusively? I mean, I remember every time my mommy asked me when I was next gonna knock boots. Icky.) So long story short: At dinner, Talan professed his love to Taylor. ''Every girl I try to date,'' he said, ''I compare to you wow, it's like a line from a movie but there's no comparison.'' Cue Sinead.
At her party, Kristin whooped it up with everyone (but Taylor) and made drunken, flirty eyes with Talan, who denied to her that he was even dating Taylor. And Kristin later revealed that the ever-elusive Matt's not her boyfriend. As Talan put it, ''Kristin has a penis mentality.''
This is all very intriguing, but fodder for another column, because such affairs no more Matt, private-parts dirty talk all paled in comparison with the night's main event: LC and Stephen. The two of them, along with Dieter and Kaitlyn, headed south of the border for LC's birthday. (Funny, we don't know Kaitlyn too well, but she made the birthday-road-trip cut. Um, where the hell is Lo?) During the drive (and In-n-Out Burgers!), the four quizzed one another on which of several hypothetical pairs they would rather hook up with. Stephen refused to play, while Dieter (who shouldn't wear his hat backward) teased the supposed couple (Stephen and LC) over the supposed inevitable. But given past episodes, it was hard for us to take the possibility seriously. Have we seen definitive evidence of Stephen and LC ever actually getting their swerve on? And yet, with Kristin out of the picture, things did change for the better, and sweatier, and swervier. At least, for a bit.
Between the cherry feedings, stolen kisses, and whipped-cream nose lickings over dinner, tension and affection between Stephen and LC definitely did heat up. But where does one go from here? Well, the next scene found Stephen sitting in his Rosarito motel room calling Kristin, who curtly dismissed his birthday greetings. (''Why can't he just, like, grow up?'' Why can't he just be totally cute like these like earrings?) But it's hard to feel bad for Stephen's telephonic emasculation, given he was kinda betraying LC. She loves the boy so much. And for the first time (for me, at least), I felt an undeniable empathy with her and her devotion to Stephen. It really was warming to see LC believe she was going to get everything she'd ever wanted from the guy of her dreams. And indeed, Stephen and LC kissed, snuggled, and straddled a bull together, and he even told her, ''I love you'' the natural next step after one straddles a bull with another, of course. But given the phone call and the gloomy wistfulness weighing on Stephen's face throughout the trip, it seemed he'd prefer to be somewhere else, with someone else. I hope I'm simply not giving Stephen's feelings for LC enough credibility. Regardless, the nascent relationship (at least the one before our eyes) was short-lived, for Stephen had to return to San Francisco. Alas.
What do you think? Following their honeymoon in Mexico, didn't Stephen seem a bit aloof during his farewell to LC? (It almost looked as if he were giving her a pat-on-the-back buddy hug. Geesh.) Is Kristin slowly being phased out as the season's primary focus and narrator? And finally, a week after the car sing-along by LC and Stephen, ''Don't Stop Believin' '' ascended to the iTunes top 10. Which of you have been juicing the Journey train?

The Stones to keep on Rolling
By Michael Lewittes | 3:31 pm, July 27th, 2010
"Stones to stop Rolling," reads an "exclusive" in The Sun, which goes on to claim, "The Rolling Stones are set to finally bow out after 50 years in music – with a giant farewell tour."
According to the tabloid, a world tour is set to run through 2012 – the band's 50th anniversary – and then Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood, Keith Richards, and Mick Jagger will "call it a day."
The Sun reports, "They are in talks with promoters Live Nation about the tour," and they "realise that age is creeping up on them. They want to bow out on top of their game."
Not on top of its game, however, is The Sun.
An insider tells Gossip Cop that Live Nation is among several promoters that have approached the Stones about hitting the road again.
Regardless of who promotes the tour, a rep for the band assures Gossip Cop, "No, they are not retiring."

Landscaping, Micheladas, and Bonnie 'Prince' Billy: 10 Things You Need to Know About Lawrence
Over the last 12 years, Hamburg, Germany's Peter M. Kersten has quietly built a cult following with a constant string of house-meets-techno-meets-ambient releases under the Lawrence and Sten guises. Teasing out the strands of low-slung Detroit house (think Theo Parrish and Peacefrog Records) and mixing them with Pop Ambient-style abstraction, Kersten weaves aural tapestries that flit between intense headphone listening and subdued dancefloor escapes—often in the course of the same track. His most recent release as Lawrence, A Day in the Life, is a near-beatless excursion—what Kersten refers to as a "buddy record." This week, it's being released on his friend Toshiya Kawasaki's revered Tokyo imprint Mule Musiq, featuring artwork by another friend, Stefan Marx, who does all of the covers for Kersten's Smallville label. To mark the occasion—and help educate anyone who's unaware of Kersten's many past accomplishments—we prodded the producer/DJ on his professional past, his current obsessions, and the many other projects he has on the go.

Fernando Alonso says Ferrari are in the dark about the Korean pecking order as they refused to compare their pace on Friday.
Alonso is in desperate need of a great result this weekend in Korea after watching his lead in the title slashed to just four points when he retired at the previous race in Japan, which was won by his main rival Sebastian Vettel.
Worryingly for Ferrari, the Red Bull racer was again in form at the Yeongam circuit on Friday, setting the pace ahead of his team-mate Mark Webber while Alonso was third, 0.328s down.
The Spaniard, though, did appear to have good race-pace, matching the Bulls and McLarens over long distances.
However, whether he reckons Ferrari are in the pecking order Alonso isn't saying.
"It's hard to say where we are compared to the others, because today, we focused mainly on ourselves, working this morning on a comparison of various ideas relating to car configuration and, in the afternoon on the tyres," said the 31-year-old.
"We must wait til tomorrow to have a more precise picture of the situation."
The drivers also made to contend with a very dirty track on Friday, which steadily improved as lap by lap the drivers cleaned the dust.
"The track improved a great deal from one session to the next: it's a phenomenon that's particularly accentuated here, because there's hardly any racing on this track and this morning, it was particularly dirty.
"Let's hope the situation improves for tomorrow because it's always more fun driving when the track offers at least some grip.
"The most demanding part of this circuit is definitely the third sector, the shortest in terms of time, made up almost entirely of corners.
"The set-up choices are dictated mainly by car behaviour in this third sector, while the other two are definitely easier to deal with."

The 87th annual Portage County Fair will be held Thursday to Monday, Aug. 30 to Sept. 2, in Rosholt with animal judging, games, rides and entertainment for the entire family.
The fairground gates will open Friday, Aug. 30 at 5 p.m. with wristbands available for $15 from 6 to 10 p.m. Aug. 30 to Sept. 1 and from noon to 4 p.m. Sept. 2.
"A new change this year is that we added another day for ride wristbands," Chris Martin, Rosholt Fair coordinator said.
Saturday's annual parade will start at noon at Rosholt High School. Road access for commuters will not be available during the time of the parade.
"Highway 66 will be closed through Rosholt for the parade," said parade director, Deb Morgan.
The road closure is relatively new to the fair, starting in 2010, to give participants and spectators along the route the opportunity to "equally enjoy the parade without an active lane of traffic sharing the roadway" said a press release from the Rosholt Fair Association.
"People will have to arrive before noon if they want to watch the parade; otherwise they will have to come in through the Maple Street entrance," said Martin. "As soon as noon comes Highway 66 will be shut down from Highway A to Highway I."
Participants in the 2013 parade are returning veterans such as the Rosholt American Legion and Honor Guards. This year's parade marshal will be Kate Zdroik, who runs the Rosholt Record and Wisconsin Territories.
"She was influential in getting the Rosholt Library expanded," Morgan said. "Her name came up more than any other name.
"After the parade we will have nonstop entertainment until the band starts in the evening," Morgan said.
This year's fair entertainment will include magic shows, WithoutExcuse, B. Andrews Band, Johnny Wad, Tuscan Road and Polka County Drifters. There will also be a market animal sale, pony rides, softball and horseshoe games, sawmill and blacksmith, bingo, games and demolition derby. The Malcolm Rosholt Pioneer Museum will also be open for tours.
"Even though it is advertised there will be no helicopter rides this year," Martin said. "We have new food and a bigger variety to choose from; the dinner stand has expanded their menu to include BBQ chicken.
"We've repainted the inside of the exhibit barn, put in a new road, made plenty of handicap parking and shuttle services available, leveled the ground and put in new electrical services and drainage," Martin said. "I don't know if people will notice a lot of these things but we've been working."
Parking is free; and handicap parking and shuttle services will be available. Admission for Friday, Saturday and Sunday is $3 each day, weekend passes are available for $8 and 12 and younger may enter for free. There is no admission charge Monday. The fair will be held rain or shine. No carry-ins are allowed.
This year's sponsors include Wellers Auto Salvage, Community First Bank, Schierl Tires and Service, Subway, The Store, Trigs, LCK Transport LLC., Rosholt Fire and Rescue Department, Betro Floorings, Y106.5, Hot 96.7, 103.3 WGLX, Big Cheese 107.9, 101.9 WDEZ and WSAW.
"We're a fair that has been growing consecutively for the last three years and we're hoping for a fourth year this year," Martin said. "Jim Christman of Christman Amusements said our fair is one of the few fairs in the state that has grown each year."

Israel Consumer Prices Fall for First Time in More Than Year
Israeli monthly consumer prices declined in July for the first time in more than a year as food and clothing costs fell amid mass protests against the high cost of living.
Consumer prices declined 0.3 percent from June, the first drop since February 2010, the Central Bureau of Statistics in Jerusalem said today. The median estimate in a survey of 14 economists by Bloomberg was for an increase of 0.3 percent. The annual inflation rate was 3.4 percent compared with 4.2 percent in the previous month.
"The major contributor to the decrease was clothing and footwear, which decreased over 8 percent mainly due to seasonal factors, while the price of dairy and other food products went down by nearly 2 percent," said Yoel Finkel, deputy director- general of the bureau. "This shows that the 'cottage cheese revolution' had impact."
More than 100,000 Israelis joined a Facebook group boycott of cottage cheese to protest its rising price, prompting dairy companies including Strauss Group Ltd. (STRS) to lower the cost and the government to set up a committee to examine food prices.
Strauss Group Ltd. has declined about 9 percent since the beginning of July. The country's largest food retailer, Shufersal Ltd. (SAE), has fallen about 11 percent during the same period.
Export Growth
Israeli export growth slowed in July to 0.6 percent amid signs that the economic expansion is slowing in the U.S. and the European Union, its two biggest trading partners. The Bank of Israel on Aug. 2 cut its forecast for economic growth this year to 4.8 percent in 2011 from 5.2 percent. Exports make up about 40 percent of Israel's gross domestic product.
Economists' 12-month inflation expectations declined to 2.9 percent from 3 percent a month ago, the central bank reported July 18, the first time this year that they have dropped below the upper limit of the target range. DS Securities & Investments Ltd., which is based in Tel Aviv, cut its 12-month inflation forecast to 2.4 percent from 2.7 percent on Aug. 7, citing expectations that the wave of demonstrations will lead to a moderation of price increases.
The breakeven rate, the average yearly inflation rate traders bet by 2013, fell to 2.4 today from 2.9 percent on July 28.
Inflation has exceeded the government's 1 percent to 3 percent target range every month this year.
Bank of Israel Governor Stanley Fischer has increased the benchmark interest rate four times this year, leaving it at 3.25 percent for the past two months.
Two-year interest-rate swaps, an indicator of investor expectations for the benchmark rate, declined to 3.2 percent, from a high this year of 4.2 percent in April.

''Daredevil'''s four fatal flaws
The nation's No. 1 movie got one thing right: Daredevil's pec-hugging bodysuit, helpfully inscribed with the telltale initials ''DD,'' is unsightly enough to have been designed by a blind man.
But that's about it for realism in ''Daredevil.'' Even graded on a generous comic-book-movie curve, the film exhibits an uncommon disregard for the dictates of logic, common sense, and physics (Jennifer Garner's sturdy leather sportsbra excluded). Sure, the movie's $70 million-plus take suggests its lapses didn't faze many moviegoers. But even the most ardent Marvel Comics worshippers shouldn't have to put up with the level of silliness we've uncovered [warning: spoilers ahead].
LEGAL PROBLEMS Justice may be blind, but ''Daredevil'''s sloppy take on the legal system is just jaw-droppingly dumb. Ben Affleck's Matt Murdock must be the ditsiest lawyer since Ally McBeal; he, and the moviemakers, don't know whether he's a private attorney or a government prosecutor. The film establishes Murdock as a partner in a law firm, only to cut to a scene of him as a finger-pointing, speech-making prosecutor in a rapist's criminal trial. Then, when the rapist gets off (the jury must have been as confused as the audience), Murdock puts on his S&M outfit and pushes him in front of the C train. Now that's due process.
MOURNING BECOMES ELEKTRA ''Daredevil'' offers the most miraculous resurrection since Paula Abdul found a TV gig. In the film's climactic fight, Colin Farrell's Bullseye shreds Elektra's throat and impales her on her own sword; we see her heart stop. So how does she come back to life at the end? When Elektra croaked in the '80s ''Daredevil'' comics, a group of helpful ninjas revived her in a magical ritual. But there's nary a ninja to be found here. More puzzling: Instead of expressing bewilderment at his girlfriend's miraculous return from the grave, Affleck simply murmurs something about ''hope.'' Our hope? No ''Daredevil 2.''
POWER OF ATTORNEY ''Daredevil'''s makers touted their star as an all-too-human superhero who combats the aches and pains of crime-fighting by gulping Slim-Shady-worthy doses of Vicodin. So why do they betray their concept by showing Daredevil floating around Manhattan like a cross between Spider-Man and Mighty Mouse? Daredevil, whose only superhuman abilities are enhanced senses, is shown dodging bullets with a Neo-like ease, casually hurling himself from the top of skyscrapers, and making absurd 300-foot leaps from rooftop to rooftop. Forget Vicodin -- what this guy needs is a coffin.
OPEN SECRET Matt Murdock seems to have trouble understanding the ''secret'' part of ''secret identity.'' Sure, being a blind dude helps keep people from figuring out that you're a costumed crusader by night -- as long as you don't blow your cover by flaunting your abilities in broad daylight. But that's exactly what Murdock does in front of dozens of strangers in his cutesy first meeting with Elektra, engaging in an elaborate martial arts brawl that no blind man could ever attempt. Meanwhile, Elektra adds to the scene's foolishness with her alarming comfort about pummelling a cane-toting, shades-wearing sightless guy -- in public, no less. Talk about a bad blind date.
What did you think of ''Daredevil''?

Friday, January 31 11:38:47
The trend less credit and more debt pay-down continued throughout last year, latest figures from the Central Bank showed today.
Loans to households fell 4.1pc in the year, the figures show.
But Irish private sector deposits continued to rise, mainly driven by an increase in deposits from Non-Financial Corporations, it said. Household loan repayments exceeded drawdowns by E139 million during December 2013, following a net monthly decrease of E403 million in November. Developments in December reflect the decline in loans for house purchase, which fell by E167 million. Meanwhile, consumption related loans increased by E40 million over the month.
On an annual basis, lending to Irish households continued to fall, decreasing by 4.1pc in December, compared to an annual decline of 4.3pc in November. Loans for house purchase continued to be the main category driving the change, declining at an annual rate of 3pc. Lending for consumption and other purposes which accounts for approximately 23pc of total household lending, declined by 7.6pc over the year.
Looking at trends in business, on a monthly basis, NFC (non-financial corporations) loan repayments continued to exceed drawdowns.
Loans to non-financial corporations (NFCs) declined by E1.3 billion (1.6pc) in December 2013, compared to a monthly decline of E238 million (0.3pc) in November. Developments in December reflect decline across all maturity categories of NFC loans; short-term loans up to one year fell by E519 million (1.9pc), medium-term loans between one and five years fell by E490 million (2.4pc) and long-term loans over 5 years fell by E418 million (1.3pc).
Lending to Irish resident NFCs reported a year-on-year decline of 6pc in December 2013, following an annual decrease of 4.9pc in November.
There was an increase of E570 million in Irish resident private-sector deposits during December 2013. This was mainly owing to a rise in deposits from NFCs of E1.4 billion; household deposits also increased by E28 million over the month.
Credit institutions' borrowings from the Central Bank as part of Eurosystem monetary policy operations fell by E605 million in December 2013, the Central Bank said.
