text: ''If you learn anything from the Friedmans, you learn to keep the camera going,'' says Andrew Jarecki. His Oscar-nominated documentary, Capturing the Friedmans, looks at a Long Island family devastated by allegations of pedophilia -- a study made striking with the inclusion of the clan's often explosive home movies. So Jarecki attended early screenings with a camera crew in tow. ''When we premiered in New York, we got a call that the entire Great Neck law-enforcement community was coming,'' he says. ''I knew the Friedmans and the lawyers were going to be there. We wound up having this altercation after the screening.'' That fascinating footage appears on Friedmans' superior DVD (unrated, 107 mins., 2003, HBO), alongside a trove of mini family portraits (Jesse now attends college and fights to clear his name; David is New York's top birthday-party clown). All of which reminds us, Jarecki notes, that unlike fictional features, docs have ''a very deep backstory -- and a forward story, too.''

Rio Rancho mourns loss of Emilie Parker
Updated On: Dec 17 2012 11:43:47 PM MST
The Parker family may no longer live in Rio Rancho but one wouldn't know it from the overwhelming show of support displayed at a vigil for Emilie Parker on Monday evening.
More than 200 friends and strangers showed up to Cabezon Park to remember six-year-old Emilie, who was killed in the Newtown school shooting on Friday.
"She was such a beam of light, she really was," said her former kindergarden teacher at Maggie Cordova Elementary, Lisa Dale.
Family friends of the Parker's organized the vigil. Donations, cards and a guestbook collected at the event will be forwarded to the family.
"We never even met her...but so many people feel like they know her, like it could be their own child," said Les Marmon, who brought his wife and three boys to the park.
Emilie is scheduled to be laid to rest this weekend in Utah.

|Etecoons and Dachoras. I've met these intelligent beings before. They seemed to recognize me, as well. How unusual to meet again here. In the past, they've helped me unleash abilities I didn't know I had. But where did they run to? I hope they're safe...
—Samus Aran
The Dachora (Dachola in Super Metroid Nintendo Player's Guide) are a species of ostrich-like animals. Their homeworld is unknown, but it is possibly Zebes.
A Dachora appeared in Super Metroid, in which it taught Samus how to perform a Shinespark, a technique used with the Speed Booster. A nest with an egg could be seen in the background. Later, in the escape sequence in the end of the game, Samus rescued the trapped Dachora and Etecoons from the explosion. Rescuing the Dachora and Etecoons is an optional part of the escape sequence of Super Metroid. If Samus does so, a tiny white spaceship[1] will be visible leaving the planet along with Samus's gunship during the ending sequence. Yet, although their rescue is optional, the action is considered canon due to the fact that the same Dachora and Etecoons make a reappearance in Metroid Fusion.
The appearance in Fusion shows that the egg from Super Metroid had hatched, with a small Dachora chick as the result. The Dachoras and Etecoons are seen as the sole survivors of the X Parasite infestation aboard the Biologic Space Laboratories research station. They are found on the Habitation Deck, confined in a sealed, tropical themed area with hanging tires for the Etecoons to play on. It is unknown why these creatures were on board, or why the X did not target them as potential hosts. After Samus released them, the Dachoras and Etecoons went to Samus's gunship, and they later saved Samus from the space station's explosion after the defeat of the Omega Metroid by piloting her gunship into the room to rescue her.
- The Dachoras, along with Serris and possibly the Chozo feature abilities similar to the Speed Booster. The Chozo are said to have created their many items based on their physical capabilities.
- The Dachora's name in French is Vertozor. [1]
- Interestingly, the Dachora can be released from its corridor by Shinesparking at the same time and in the same place at which the Dachora does. After this, it will run back and forth in the same usual manner and Shinespark at the ceiling.

A big juicy ass like Jay Dee's needs the right approach to break it wide open. She found her boyfriend's XXX history on his computer, and realized how badly he wanted to fuck her ass. She let him take her first anal while filming the whole thing!
Can't go wrong body-painting! We got this homemade tape from a couple that just did their first anal. Dude teased his GF and splattered paint til she stripped down and sucked his cock. Then he pounded her tight, virgin ass til she came on his dick.
The best way to say thank you is with anal! Dude got his GF the concert tix she always wanted, so she flashed and teased him on the roof of their hotel. They raced to their room all hot and lusty to spread her wide open and enjoy her first anal fuck.
Check out the booty on this girl Scarlett! Her boyfriend talked her into letting him fuck that sweet ass, and even filmed the whole thing. Then he went behind her back and posted the proof online, so you can see the super-hot anal sex for yourself!

When Gianna Nicole was out of town, she missed her man so much that she decided to let him fuck her tight amateur ass as soon as she got home. First she gave him a blowjob, and then they made some sweet amateur anal porn with a big facial finish!
No wonder Mimi's boyfriend wants to get in that bubble butt! It's so plump and juicy. He convinced her one day to go hard-core in the sack, starting with letting him film their whole fuck session, then spreading her ass wide to take that fat cock.
What kinda slut starts flashing her sweet latina pussy to complete strangers on the bus, then gets naked in a cab? Valentina even let her BF film it all, from first showing off her bald pussy, to laying back so dude could shove his cock up her ass.
When dude got home his girl Josi Valentine was leaning up on the kitchen island, her huge booty popping out. Bro just had to nuzzle his face in that sweet ass, and rub up and down the crack. Josi got so turned on she gave him her first anal fuck.

Exposure Therapy Turns Off Fear Neurons to Treat AnxietyPsych CentralNovember 4, 2013
Exposure therapy is often used to treat anxiety disorders like post-traumatic stress disorder and phobias; despite its effectiveness, little is known of the biological processes underpinning the therapy. A new study in mice, published in the journal Neuron, reports that exposure therapy remodels an inhibitory junction in the amygdala, a brain region important for fear in mice and humans. The findings improve understanding of how exposure therapy suppresses fear responses and may aid in developing more effective treatments.

Aveo Screwed Up but Its Kidney Cancer Drug Is Real
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. ( TheStreet) -- AVEO Oncology (AVEO) has had a difficult time since its lead cancer compound tivozanib was roundly panned at a May 2 FDA advisory panel. By a 13-1 vote, experts on the FDA's panel concluded tivozanib did not demonstrate a favorable risk/benefit for the treatment of advanced kidney cancer. Despite scathing critiques of the design and conduct of Aveo's phase III trial, a deeper look at the data demonstrates tivozanib's efficacy is actually fairly similar to previously approved kidney cancer drugs. While the phase III trial might not be completely predictive of future success, at the very least, the trial is strong enough to justify an AVEO valuation above cash on hand.
There has been a lot written about the mistakes made by Aveo in designing and conducting the tivozanib study, and how these errors could have -- and should have -- been avoided. Setting aside that debate, I want to look at the tivozanib data in isolation to see what they say about the actual clinical activity of the kidney cancer drug. In particular, the FDA advisory panel compared tivozanib to seven other drugs approved in kidney cancer: Onyx Pharma's (ONXX) Nexavar, Pfizer's (PFE) Sutent, Inlyta and Torisel, Novartis' (NVS) Affinitor, Roche's (RHHBY) Avastin and GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) Votrient. Are the tivozanib data dramatically out of sync with the trials results of the approved drugs?
Chemist and pharmaceutical analyst John Tucker (@JohnTuckerPhD on twitter) conducted an analysis correlating progression free survival (PFS) with overall survival (OS) for all seven drugs to determine the tivozanib results from Aveo's phase III trial were anomalous. If the tivozanib trial produced flaw results in terms of either PFS or OS, then it should appear outside of the correlation seen with the approved drugs.
I've reproduced Tucker's analysis below:One of the first things to note is the relatively strong correlation between PFS and OS among the seven approved drugs. The blue diamonds represents the approved drugs with the regression line superimposed. The only real outlier is Torisel (the blue diamond sitting by itself below the regression line) with a median PFS of 5.5 months but a median OS of only 10.9 months. Based on the regression line, Torisel's median OS should have been closer to 15 months. Now, look at how closely tivozanib (the red square) hews to the regression line. The median OS is slightly longer than one would expect given the median PFS but certainly within the margin of error. It's difficult to argue from these data alone that tivozanib is not an active kidney cancer drug -- perhaps the most effective drug compared to its peers, in fact.

|April 11, 2012
SPRINGFIELD April is Autism Awareness month and No Small Victories invites the public to participate in the No Small Victories Autism Awareness Fair on April 21.
The event will take place at the Martin Luther King Jr. Family Services Youth Center, 3 Rutland St., on April 21 from noon to 4 p.m.
Jacqueline Williams-Hines, founder of No Small Victories, is a local author who writes children's books about autism. As the mother of a child living with autism, Williams-Hines was motivated to self-publish her first book in 2006. "Joshua and The Startabulous Dream Maker" gave a brief general overview of what autism is.
Through a community grant and fund-raising in the form of her No Small Victories Autism Awareness Event/Walk-a-thon, she went on to publish the second book in her then aptly named No Small Victories book series.
"The Adventures of Suther Joshua from Planet Yethican," released in early 2008, dealt with the preoccupation that children with autism often experience with certain objects or ideas, and how Joshua turned what is often looked at as a negative into a positive.
The most recently released third book entitled, "Joshua That's Sooo Slimming!" deals with a phenomenon known as stimming, or auto-stimulation, which is often characterized by repetitive movements or sounds such as rocking back and forth, throat clearing or repetition of a certain word or phrase.
Autism is the largest growing developmental disability affecting our children today with autism birth rates in America currently standing at 1:110, with boys being affected 4:1 to females at 1:70.
For families on the autism spectrum, life can feel like a game of hot potato when dealing with insurance companies, schools, social service providers and the very communities in which they live. Finding and maintaining supports for families on the autism spectrum can often resembles a game of tag with everyone crying, "Not It!" Educational advocates and respite services providers often players, if available at all, to families to "tag-in" when requiring a time out. No Small Victories' goal is to bring about autism awareness knowledge in the greater Springfield area, to empower parents in seeking a diagnosis and supports, and to promote community inclusion.

Saya ini orangnya demanding banget, really!
Suami dech paham banget tentang kelakuan saya kalau lagi minta sesuatu tapi gak bisa dapat. Cemberut, pastinya.
Sedangkan Suami saya ini ya ampun…kelakuan baik banget. Jarang marah, cemberut, dan malah senyum mulu kerjaannya. Paling kalau memang lagi capek banget, dia akan milih untuk tidur. Tapi dodolnya saya, iya dodol banget, sering saya ganggu tidurnya. *ampun*
Nah, di siang bolong ini saya nemu satu artikel di Zen Habits yang bagus banget. Judulnya: Smile in Each Moment.
There's a tendency to get caught up in the tasks of our day, the urgency of what's coming up, the distractions of being online.
And we forget to smile.
In the rush of the day, the stress of wanting things to happen a certain way, we lose the enjoyment of each moment.
In every moment, there's the capacity for happiness. It's not that we need to be ecstatic, full of pleasure, excited or even joyous each and every second of the day. Who needs that kind of pressure? And it's not that we can never feel sadness or anger or stress. It's that we can feel happiness, in some form, any moment we like, even in the midst of stress or sadness.
And it's exceedingly simple. We just need to remember to smile.
You can smile in each and every moment.
OK, maybe you don't need a smile on your face all day long — your cheeks will feel tired. But we can smile more, and in between physical smiles, we can have an internal smile.
Try an internal smile now: have a calm, unsmiling face, but think of the miracle of this moment, and find a thought to smile about. Feel the smiling feeling inside. Isn't that amazing?
What do you have to smile about in this moment?
Some ideas:
- You have someone in your life who cares about you.
- There is beauty all around you, in many forms.
- You are generous, compassionate, and good-hearted.
- You have someone you can help.
- You have eaten today.
- You can move.
- You can see the sun shining.
- You can appreciate the leaves of a tree, rain falling, wind blowing.
- You can taste chocolate.
- You get to spend time with someone you love.
- You have music in your life.
- You get to create something.
And so on. You probably don't have all of these, but you might have one or two, and if so, that's a more than good enough cause to smile.
You'll forget to smile in some moments, because your mind gets caught up in stories about the past, stresses about what might happen in the future. None of this is happening right now — it's just movies playing in our heads.
Instead, remind yourself of what's happening right now, and see the beauty in it, see the reason to smile. And then smile, externally and internally.

Paavali Jumppanen
Finnish pianist Paavali Jumppanen's New York debut in 2001 at the 92nd Street Y, presented by Young Concert Artists, garnered reviews of "fresh and exciting" playing and "immense power and an extraordinary range of colors." Mr. Jumppanen has since toured extensively in the U.S. performing at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC and at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, where he has performed frequently since his debut concert in 2001. His New York appearances have included performances at the Metropolitan Museum, Morgan Library and at Carnegie's Weill Recital Hall. In 2002, he made his New York concerto debut with the New York Chamber Symphony conducted by Gerard Schwarz at Alice Tully Hall.
In recent years, Mr. Jumppanen has dedicated much of his time to exploring music of the Viennese Classical Period. He has often performed the complete Beethoven Piano Sonatas cycle and, following one of his Beethoven recitals, the Boston Globe reported how "the sheer, overflowing energy of his musicianship held one's attention throughout this impressive performance and the result was a bracing and enjoyable reminder of how path-breaking Beethoven's music was." Mr. Jumppanen has recently completed a multi-year project of recording the Sonatas cycle. The first part of the recording was released in 2014 (Ondine) to critical acclaim. The remaining volumes of the recording will appear in 2015 and 2016.
Recent performances have included a rendering of the five Piano Concertos by Beethoven with the Lahti Symphony Orchestra and an Australian tour with the Australian Chamber Orchestra, performing piano quintets by Dvorak and Shostakovich. During the 2014-15 season Mr. Jumppanen will return to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston to continue a two-year project focusing on works by Schumann and Stockhausen begun in the spring 2014. He will also perform as a soloist in the Fourth Piano Concerto of Beethoven on a national tour with the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra as well as perform recitals in Switzerland and Australia.
The year 2015 marks anniversaries of two composers with particular attachment to Mr. Jumppanen, the 150th anniversary of his countryman Jean Sibelius as well as the 90th anniversary of the French composer Pierre Boulez, whose music Mr. Jumppanen has championed since recording the three Piano Sonatas by Boulez upon the composer's request. The two composers' music will be featured in Mr. Jumppanen's recital programs in 2015.
Mr. Jumppanen spent the 2011-12 season in residence at the Music Department of Harvard University where, in addition to deepening his understanding of Viennese 18th century music, he was able to realize his longtime aspiration to study musicology and music theory. During the 2010-11 season Mr. Jumppanen performed the complete Piano Sonatas by Mozart at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. The recording of complete Sonatas for Piano & Violin by Beethoven (Claves) performed by Mr. Jumppanen and violinist Corey Cerovsek received the Midem Prize of Cannes in February 2008 for best chamber music disc of the year.
Paavali Jumppanen was born in 1974 in Espoo, where at the age of five, began piano lessons at the Music Institute. In 1992 he entered the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, and from 1997 to 2000 studied with Krystian Zimerman at the Basel Music Academy in Switzerland. In Basel Mr. Jumppanen also studied the organ, fortepiano, and clavichord. In addition to his institutional studies, Russian born pianist Konstantin Bogino has been an important mentor for Mr. Jumppanen throughout his studies and career.
After winning first prize at Helsinki's Maj Lind Competition in 1994, Mr. Jumppanen has become regular soloist of many of Finland's leading orchestras. He frequently appears with the Helsinki Philharmonic, Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and Lahti Symphony Orchestra. He has performed extensively in Europe, Japan, and Australia, appearing with the Melbourne Symphony, Oslo Philharmonic, Stuttgart Philharmonic and the BBC Symphony Orchestra as well as appearances at numerous festivals including the Kuhmo Chamber Music Festival in Finland and the La Roque d'Anthéron Festival in France. In 2015 Mr. Jumppanen will begin serving as the artistic director to PianoEspoo festival, the most prominent international piano festival in his native Finland.
Mr. Jumppanen frequently performs the classics of the avant-garde as well as contemporary works and regularly commissions works from Finnish composers. His recording of the complete Piano Sonatas by Pierre Boulez (DGG 2005) earned the praise of London's Guardian, calling it "the best recorded disc of Boulez's piano music so far." His repertoire also includes the large cycle for solo piano, Vingt Regards Sur l'Enfant Jėsus by Olivier Messiaen. His performance of the work at the Gardner Museum in Boston in 2010, subsequently selected as one of the top ten performances of the year by the Boston Globe, was reported by the Boston Globe to be "a rare wedding of intellectual penetration, coloristic imagination, and sheer virtuoso firepower."

Tibetan / Vajrayana
Vajrayana Buddhism is most closely associated with Tibet and can be characterized by the figure of the siddha, the master whose spiritual realization is so profound that he or she has power over the phenomenal world, and in whom the profundity and vastness of absolute truth is fully and completely manifested. Many of our most well-known authors come from this tradition of Tibetan Buddhism .
[Note: The tags for the various schools are not definitive as many books span multiple traditions, etc. They are meant to use as a starting point for exploring this collection.]
Opening the Treasure of the Profound
Teachings on the Songs of Jigten Sumgon and Milarepa
Spiritual teachings in the form of songs—spontaneous expressions of deep wisdom and understanding that reveal the nature of reality—have been treasured since the dawn of Buddhism in India. In Opening the Treasure of the Profound, Khenchen Konchog Gyaltshen translates nine such songs, by Milarepa and Jigten Sumgön, and then explains them in contemporary terms. His insights take the Buddha's ancient wisdom out of the realm of the intellectual and directly… Read More

Confusion Arises as Wisdom
Gampopa's Heart Advice on the Path of MahamudraHow could confusion arise as wisdom? According to the Mahamudra view, confusion arises as wisdom when we realize that everything we experience is the radiance of the mind's own nature. And what is the nature of our mind? And how do we come to recognize that? These are the questions Gampopa answers for his students in the text commented upon here, known as the Great Community Talks. He shows… Read More

The Odyssey of the Tibetan Masters with the Black Crown
Masters of esoteric knowledge and miraculous practices, the lineage of the Karmapas is the earliest of all the recognized incarnate lineages and is said to descend from the great Indian tantric master Tilopa through a chain that includes Naropa, Marpa, and Milarepa.

Teachings on the Ninth Karmapa's Text
At the heart of successful Mahamudra practice is the ability to understand the nature of mind. The Ninth Karmapa Wangchuk Dorje (1556–1603) was the acknowledged master of this approach. No more authoritative or useful instructions exist than in his three definitive texts on Mahamudra, of which this easy-to-use manual is the shortest and most practical.

Liquor sales up despite high sales taxon October 8, 2012 @ 11:06 am (Updated: 2:53 pm - 10/8/12 )
"We need to look at the next two or three months to see what that looks like over time. At least in the first three months compared to the previous fiscal year, 10.2 percent overall," says Rick Garza, deputy director of the Washington State Liquor Control Board.
He says Washington is losing sales to Idaho and Oregon, and most of that can be attributed to the high taxes on liquor.
In fact, Oregon's liquor control board says June and July sales at stores near the border were up $1.5 million compared to the same time last year.
The Wall Street Journal says since Initiative 1183 went into effect on June 1, the state Department of Revenue reported the price of liquor rose 17 percent from a year earlier.
The Tax Foundation, a nonpartisan, nonprofit group that tracks tax rates including sales taxes in states across the U.S., says that Washington liquor taxes were the highest in the country.
Consumers currently pay $13.50 per gallon in federal excise taxes and $3.77 per liter in state taxes, which were present under the old state-owned system. As of June 1, individuals must also pay a new 20.5 percent liquor tax on all purchases.
Chris loves the rush of covering breaking news and works hard to try to make sense of it all while telling stories about real people in extraordinary circumstances.

GameCrib Extras: Cooking with Dan Dinh
Dan Dinh shows Travis how he prepares food for the guys at the house.
I would love to watch more of these, Alex Penn needs to stand up Travis more often.
So did anyone else notice that in the very last pane of the video that Chaox was in the team picture and not Turtle?
inb4 Reginald steps down, Turtle moves to mid, Chaox back on TSM as ADC. 10/10 will happen. :D <3
Being somebody who cooks and enjoys cooking often since i havent lived with my parents in a decade, i found this kind of dumb. Comments like "smells like shit" and "i think this is thyme, i dont know what it tastes like..." are just like, Wtf... Also he has no idea how to cook a steak....
I miss Cooking With Dave.
Mommy Dinh
Would definitely watch more of Dan's cooking!
Hey...uhh...Dan.. ;)
Food definitely looks delicious though. 10/10, would stuff my face.
13:44 Chaox :D
Can someone please tell me what is the sauce he was using with cucumbers?
I actually really enjoyed that and would 100% watch another clip revolving around Travis and Dan Dinh cooking.
@AzureBaron too bad Chaox officially retired from competitive LoL
@hockeygod9912 Get off your high horse. He isn't a professional chef, nor does he claim to be one. You don't like it? Fine! Leave the page. Why do you feel the need to lead a childish comment? This is meant as a bit of fun to entertain, it isn't "how to cook a steak". Personally I enjoyed this as did many others. You lived away from mummy for a decade and you still have the attitude of a 12 year old. Take a good look at yourself I implore you.
@ml5150 and he's pro at cooking! :D glad i wasn't the only one thinking the same thing hahaha!
@busyfilip Sriracha
@Pheonix158 He could come out of retirement if given the right offer.
@cammy5000 @hockeygod9912 Oh no a TSM Fanboi. Sry only read first sentence and replied, didnt read anything else. Pcenrd
@cammy5000 @hockeygod9912 K, im 28. Keep making pointless responses.

Posted: Thu Mar 15 2012
King Baby Jim Gaffigan is a populist comic who proves, in his career and in his comedy, that you don't have to hate something just because it's popular. His material is both creative and accessible, winding into laudably weird places without ever losing the crowd. So he digs McDonald's and avoids the gym; you do too—you'd just prefer not to confess it in front of a crowd.

Welcome to The Source of the Nile
The Nile is the longest River in the world traveling 6696km (4184 miles) from the source of the White Nile in Uganda to the Nile Delta in Egypt. The English name NILE is thought to originate from the semitic "Nahal" meaning river.
The Niles majestic waters flow at an average volume of 300 million cubic meters per day passing through four countries (Uganda, South Sudan, Sudan and Egypt) in the course of a 3 month journey. This is the White Nile Tributary.
Another tributary, the Blue Nile emerges from Lake Tana in Ethiopia and joins the White Nile in Khartoum, Sudan.
The Nile has for long captured the imagination of countless travelers throughout the ages. Since biblical times the Nile has provided water and therefore life to the millions of people that live along it banks.
The Nile formed the economic foundation of the ancient civilizations of Egypt and Sudan which almost 3000 years BC built the most astounding Architectural masterpieces
