Excellent blog post (and very entertaining video) by Elizabeth
Bluemle in Publishers Weekly about how overweight characters are described in children's books. She is concerned that writers of children's fiction are casting negative aspersions on overweight characters instead of just describing them...
'Fat issues loom large in our culture, as it were, and kids pick up messages about how they should look that batter their confidence at every turn. Literature for young people should be one place where kids don't find themselves mocked, dismissed, or shamed. I am not talking about books that deal directly with weight; it's the books that don't realize they are reinforcing negative stereotypes that concern me.
While we have all become accustomed to popular culture's celebration of thin, what I didn't expect is that books — the refuge of the chubby kid, the place where people understand the value of what lies beneath the surface, a land of acceptance and tolerance for difference — would come around to betray their readers.' More from PW.
screw it. adults are always imposing their world views on children. why not one which gurarantees a lifetime of health problems.

Jennifer Lawrence's song is catching fire.
As if being the Mockingjay wasn't enough, Katniss Everdeen Lawrence is adding Top 40 recording artist to...
Read Whole Story
Two summers ago, I visited the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. Rihanna's dress was on display, which is sort of like putting Joe Namath's jersey on display at the Baseball Hall of Fame. It doesn't really belong.
For as long as I can remember, I have been a music lover. Mom would break out her John Gary and Nat King Cole records, and although I wasn't crazy about either artist, it was hard to miss how happy she was while listening to them.
Maybe it's the memories of summers gone by, with barbecues and our trusty stereos at our side - or the fact I know a lot of people sorting their album...
Enough already! You are stressed out. Overworked. Underpaid. And buried under your day-to-day life. Sure, you could practice yoga, try to eat healthier and learn to rest more. But how about, for one brief moment, recapturing your youth. For me, these six things do the trick.
This month, I've been going back to my roots and listening to a lot of songs that a girly girl like me would listen to, as well as new singles which have been topping the music charts.
This question originally appeared on Quora.
Answer by Aaron Ellis, Former Music Critic with Artist Farm
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis follow a formu...
No offense to any of these artists (besides Flo-Rida, I fully mean to offend you), but these songs definitely need to be punished and shown to the gates of Hades, where they will have ample time to think about what they've done.
This year was rife with some great and relatively diverse popular music, and it's time we give some artistic cred not just to the capital-A Artistes who care not for the embrace of the masses but to the hit makers who have probably shaped the future of wedding receptions for decades to come.
No one would credit Top 40 for being innovative, but there's a difference between "everything on the radio sounds the same" and "beyotch stole my track." Ryan Tedder's rampant recycling sends a bad message about being successful in the music industry.
Do artists have a responsibility to push their fans into new and exciting territories? Is there anything wrong with giving your public exactly what they know they want, if it remains true to who you are? Does embracing mass popular culture somehow harm your credibility as an artist?
In his boisterous directorial debut, "That Thing You Do!", Tom Hanks's record-executive character Mr. White makes the following request: "I want something peppy, something happy, something up-tempo. I want something snappy." Mr. White would have loved the Wellingtons.

With sincere apologies to Marilyn McCoo, Solid Gold is not just synonymous with an afro-infused flashy top 40 countdown dance show anymore.

We couldn't leave the Oak Hill without messing with at least one grenade launcher. While we waited in line to pose menacingly in front of the MK 19, we spoke with a Marine who has fired the 40-mm automatic grenade launcherand loved every minute of it.

When Ruto talked about his alleged love life with Emmy, Churchill, as if sympathizing with the MP, briefly mentioned how they had also written about him some time back. Though it was all in a single sentence, it is the first time Dan Ndambuki has been heard mentioning about it in public.

Preschool Science Curriculum Maps
Where is your school/district in the development of curriculum maps?Various schools in our district are in different stages of development regarding curriculum mapping. Preschool has completed curriculum maps for every content area.
What are your next steps in the development of curriculum maps or after completion of maps?The curriculum maps are based on the Units of Study and actually show the standards that are proposed through the instruction of that unit. Our teachers will use these maps as a self-checking system. They will check or highlight the standards within each month as they are addressed. As they proceed through the year, they will be creating a "diary map" of what was actually taught in their classroom.

Denied changes for clients
Hi folks :)
Would it be possible (short-term) to implement the following:
If a client can not change some values of a website, like the php mode or php version, this input field or select box should be shown but disabled.
I have no clue what I would have to change to achieve this, so maybe someone who known can implement it - or give me some hints.
A client of mine tried to change the php version from default to php 5.4.5 (that I set up as an additional php version) but the setting switches back to default after saving without any message.
If I change the setting then it works.
I first thought it was an error but then I realized that on all other websites of this client he can change the php version without problems.
So I think it is because I created one of this websites as admin and he is not allowed to overwrite the settings, right? But then, there should be an error message or - even better - the fields should be disabled.
You can see the difference in permissions in the sys_perm_group field of the web_domain table. 'riud' indicates that the client can save the changes in the form while 'ru' indicates that he cant save the changes. The variable 'sys_perm_group' is available in the template if I remember correctly, so it should be possible to either show a a message in the template that its read only or to disable the fields with jquery. This message or field disabling should only happen to clients, so it should be combined with a "is_admin" if statement in the template.
Thank you.
What happens if I create a web site using the remoting lib?
Is it created with admin as owner, too?
I need to create all websites for the clients but they should be able to edit settings like php version.
Same with emails and ftp and so on.
The sys_perm_group variable was not available.
I realized that a tab can have a "readonly" setting so I added this to the template as "readonly_tab" via the tform class.
In the default theme the input fields now are disabled using jQuery if a client does not have edit rights (readonly tab).
Changes are online in svn rev 3371

How do you know?
A few nights ago, as I tucked my son in bed, his eyes began to fill with tears. When I asked him what was wrong, he looked at me as if he had done something wrong. Growing more worried I assured him he could talk to me and that everything would be ok. Nervously he looked up at me and asked, "How do you know God is real?"
"How do you know God is real?" A question from my 12-year-old son. I suppose this could be a normal question for a child to have. At this point in their lives they are questioning Santa, the Easter Bunny, and most certainly the Tooth Fairy. So it is no surprise to me that he may be putting God in the same category as these fictional characters. Yet, he asked me with tears in his eyes, a quivering mouth, and a heart that was hurting. He said to me, "I want to believe, but I don't know how, and that scares me."
I was baptized and grew up in the Methodist Church. I attended Sunday school every Sunday and choir practice every Wednesday night. I played bells, was an acolyte, and was confirmed when I was in 6th grade. I was very active in my church because well, it's what I had to do. What I was told to do. I cannot say I ever had a relationship with God, not even enough to question if He was real or not. Believing was just something I did. I think a lot of people do this. They go to church because they think it's what they are supposed to do. They say they believe in God, yet they have never really opened themselves up to Him.
And here is my son, still such a young age, caring so deeply and passionately about a God he does not yet know.
Now typically when our children put us on the spot with such deep questions, we, as parents, tend to stumble over our words. We search for phrases that make sense to them and to us. And if Ian would have come to me a year ago and asked me this question, I'm not sure how I would have answered him. Yes, I prayed when I was younger, and I have always prayed with my children at bedtime. Yet it wasn't until recently I learned how to pray with purpose and to be able to speak the words I feel and hear the words I pray.
We have been saying the same prayer as a family, every night before bed since Ian was born….
"Dear God,
Thank You for mommies and daddies,
brothers and sisters,
grandmas and grandpas,
aunts and uncles,
cousins and friends.
Please watch over us all, protecting us, keeping us safe and healthy.
Thank You God
for blessing our family with good health, love, and happiness.
Please continue to watch over and love our baby,
and please continue to keep us safe and healthy.
We love You God.
A few months ago I asked the kids if we could try something different. I would say the prayer each night in which we would ask God for guidance and help with issues we may be facing at school or at home. My hope was to teach the kids a sense of confidence and trust. Teaching them to pray was a way to help them talk openly with us, or God, about anything they want. Their voice became their pencil and God became their journal. God is someone they can trust and believe will always be there to listen.
What I didn't realize that not only was I teaching my children how to pray, I was teaching myself, as well. Words did not flow very freely at first. Yet when I took time to slow down and speak from my heart, from the very pit of my stomach, I opened myself up to God. And He answered.
"How do you know God is real?" Ian asked.
"Because I feel Him," I answered.
"I have prayed to God and I have opened myself up to Him. I have put my trust and faith in Him in hopes He can show me the way. He has offered me strength, comfort, peace, and confidence. I have prayed to Him and He has answered. I know He loves me without judgment. I do not have to be perfect in order to receive His unconditional love. And when you believe in a love that is so mighty and forgiving, it allows you to give love and receive love just as freely as God loves you."
For now, my son, keep doing what you are doing. It's okay to question your beliefs. They cannot be forced upon you. We all find our way one way or another. Your thoughts and feelings are mature, proving you are wise beyond your years. Your heart is tender and real. Do not be afraid. Tonight we will pray for truth. We will pray with an open heart and an open mind. And with this precious gift of prayer, I can only hope that one day, all of your questions will be answered.
As it is from you, I learned, "God is real."

REVIEW SUMMARY: Contemporary era thriller with a preference for over-dramatized responses to tense and dire situations. Good for a quick read if you like that sort of thing, but not for readers looking for characters to sympathize with or prose to remember.
BRIEF SYNOPSIS: Mike Mitchell has a problem. His wife is struggling to fit her old-money roots alongside Mike's blue-collar foundations, and his career plan isn't shaping up to help matters much. Also, the power is out, the water is off, it's New York's worst blizzard since the Ice Age, and the entire city is about to find itself up the Hudson River without so much as a folded paper sailboat.
PROS: Cyberstorm is rich with tension and peril; there's no trouble sympathizing with New Yorkers trying to survive in the midst of a massive systems failure during one of the worst snowstorms on record; national and international response to the crisis feels authentic and believable; pacing is spot-on with breaks in the action and detours into subplots blended seamlessly with the main narrative.
CONS: The characters in Cyberstorm were dull and half-formed, serving only to be placeholders; other than Mike, everyone else seemed to wait in the wings for their moment and otherwise lingered around so Mike had someone to talk to or look at; women, in particular, got very short shrift in this story; Mather overdoes the gore and amplifies people's responses to desperation; the conclusion was also a complete let-down.
BOTTOM LINE: As a thriller-adventure story, Cyberstorm will appeal to readers of mainstream contemporary thrillers. With warnings aplenty about what might happen if we're not careful, Cyberstorm has the pacing, action, technical details, and political intrigue to satisfy readers looking for a story that hints at dangers in our modern computer- and information-dependent landscape. If you're looking for a speculative fiction escape into the realms of possibility with memorable characters and exciting prose, look elsewhere.

British Steam Car project topples century-old record
We've been following the British Steam Car project for a while now, and now it looks like we've got some happy news to report. The steam-powered troupe of British engineers have unofficially toppled the 127 mph record set by Fred Marriott in his Stanley Steamer back in 1906. The Steam Car made two attempts over a measured mile, reaching speeds of 136 mph the first time and 151 mph after that, for an average speed of 139.843 mph.
It's still unofficial as the ruling agency, the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile, hasn't confirmed the record-breaking speeds. If confirmed, the British Steam Car project, after a decade of work on the vehicle, will be the holders of the land speed record for steam-powered vehicles. The Steam Car was driven by one Charles Burnett III.
From CNET:
The British Steam Car, a project 10 years in the making, is no jet, but it does have its share of modern trappings, including carbon-fiber construction. The 3-ton, 25-foot-long vehicle has 12 boilers, and its steam gets superheated to 400 degrees Celsius before being injected into the turbine.

DeShawn Stevenson and the Best Thing You Will See Today
We linked to this in Smack this morning, but it absolutely deserves its own post on the site so that you can really revel in the wonder that is DeShawn Stevenson. He posted this photo on his Instagram feed with the caption, "Swag out before my dinner @jjmarie92."
While his outfit is clearly amazing, it is the fact that the man has an ATM machine in his kitchen just takes this photo and all things Stevenson to another place.
So many questions that we need answered ASAP, like "Why?" "Are there withdrawal fees?" And, again, "Why?"

BY DR. LAURA BERMAN email@example.com September 25, 2012 9:25AM
FILE - In this Friday, Aug. 24, 2012 file photo, U.S. Rep. Todd Akin, R-Mo., addresses members of the media in Chesterfield, Mo., where he confirmed his plans to remain in Missouri's U.S. Senate race despite a political uproar over remarks he made about rape and pregnancy. The Missouri Farm Bureau reaffirmed its endorsement of Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin on Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2012, after the Republican congressman made remarks about womens bodies being able to avoid pregnancy in cases of what he called legitimate rape. (AP Photo/Sid Hastings, File)
Updated: October 27, 2012 6:04AM
U.S. Rep. Todd Akin recently made headlines when he said rape victims cannot get pregnant because the body has ways of shutting that down.
His exact quote: "If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down."
The Missouri Republican's comments horrified people across the country — myself included. As I scratch my head wondering what the difference is between a "legitimate" and "illegitimate" rape, I also would like to point that around 32,000 pregnancies occur due to rape each year, and to suggest otherwise is both ignorant and offensive.
A pregnancy resulting from rape can be devastating, and the decision to continue or conclude the pregnancy must be the survivor's choice and her decision alone.
Sadly, women's reproductive rights are on the table for discussion once again.
The ruling in Roe vs. Wade might have occurred decades ago, but women are still fighting for autonomy over their own body.
It's bad enough for the average woman to have her reproductive rights threatened, but for it to occur in the case of rape survivor is downright criminal. It can exacerbate her feelings of violation and helplessness and only further impede her healing process.
Todd Akin's comment might seem extreme, but the reality is that they reflect a frightening trend in our country.
Just a few months ago, legislators in Virginia tried to pass a law that would have required every woman seeking an abortion to undergo a transvaginal ultrasound before it was permitted. Only because of public outcry did they back down. This incredibly invasive and unnecessary procedure would have had only one purpose:
To make women feel ashamed of their choice to terminate their pregnancy. Again, it's wrong to do so to any woman, but to force a rape victim to do so is inhuman, as it will make her relive her rape in both an emotional and physical way.
No matter what your opinion is about the issue, we all can agree that we want there to be fewer abortions and fewer unintended pregnancies.
Yet it's crucial to understand that violations against women and rape victims are not the way to accomplish that goal. Why not take the focus off sexual assault survivors and instead put the focus where it needs to be — in our schools.
Shaming rape victims doesn't lower the abortion rate, but studies have clearly demonstrated that comprehensive sex education can and does help prevent unintended pregnancy.
The United States still has the highest teenage pregnancy rate in the developed world, but thanks to comprehensive sex education, that number has been on the decline in recent years.
Thankfully, some politicians have a plan to ensure that the number continues to decline. President Obama has put the focus (and the funding) back on sex ed programs that have proven successful (comprehensive sex education programs) and both he and the First Lady have discussed the importance of starting age-appropriate sex education at a early age.
He also has discussed the role of sex education in helping young children to learn about molestation and to speak up when someone touches them inappropriately.
It's important to note that comprehensive sex education does not give teens "permission" to have sex. Instead, it gives them the tools and resources that they need to protect themselves when and if they finally do have sex.
Sex education empowers teens to say "no," to negotiate for condoms use, to take things slow, to ask questions and to protect their bodies.
Along with comprehensive sex education, I also think that, at the bare minimum, knowledge of basic reproductive anatomy should be a prerequisite for lawmakers in this country. After all, it seems as if Rep. Akin himself could use a refresher course in Sex Ed 101!

How they've fared Afghanistan have played only one T20 WC before this and their performance wasn't much to write home about. They were clubbed alongside India and South Africa and lost both their matches in comprehensive fashion. Hamid Hasan was their star performer with 4 wickets in total and 28 runs to his name in the tournament. What's in store Afghanistan could not have been placed in a tougher group. They have the World T20 Champions, England and the World ODI Champions, India for company. Not many would place their bets on Afghanistan but this could perhaps work in their favour as they have nothing to lose. Why you should back them Just for the joy of seeing a cricketing minnow give the big boys a run for their money. Afghanistan have their work cut out in the tournament having been drawn alongside two tough teams, but if T20 cricket has taught us one thing, it is that the weaker team cannot be taken for granted and that there are many surprises. Afghanistan will hope their opponents do just that and they will be keen on capitalizing. Their main strength lies in their bowling. Their pacers Hamid Hasan, Shapoor Zadran and Dawlat Zadran have already proved to be a handful while their spinners too have shown that they can compete at the top level. Why you shouldn't back them The team is the weakest in the tournament and everyone's favourite to get a thrashing at the hands of India and England. The team will be up against 2 of the best in the world and will need to punch above their weight if they are to stand a chance of upsetting anyone. Their main weakness will be their lack of experience in playing big teams. There will also be a huge gulf in class and quality when they taken on the bigger sides. Watch out for Hamid Hassan: The Afghan pacer has already made people sit up and take notice with his ability to make the ball swing. He is one of the best bowlers among the associate nations and will be keen to use this tournament to show his worth and win admirers around the world. Stats Afghanistan have a winning percentage of more than 50 in T20Is. In a total of XI games they have won 6 and lost 5. Mohd. Shahzad is the highest run-getter for Afghanistan in T20Is. He's scored 312 runs at an average of 31.20 in 11 T20Is. Hamid Hassan is the highest wicket-taker for Afghanistan in T20I. He's taken 14 wickets in 8 matches at an average of 12.14. His economy(5.82) also is excellent.

ALFA is undertaking important industry research in collaboration with both Victoria University, UniSA and Sport and Recreation Victoria. The project is investigating and attempting to quantify, through interviews with management and data collected from the six pilot centres, both the economic and health and well-being benefits associated with the significance of the local government aquatic and recreation industry.
Victoria University's School of Sport and Exercise Science chief investigator Dr John Tower said there was little understanding of the economic contribution made by local aquatic and recreation centres to date.
"There is a wealth of information on the economic impact of events but little that explores the economic significance of local aquatic and recreation centres," Dr Tower said. "Victoria has pools and indoor recreation centres in most metropolitan suburbs and country towns but we know very little about the impact of their business operations or their economic significance."
It is anticipated that some preliminary results will be available next year. The project will also be submitted to the Australian Research Council (ARC) for grant funding to expand its scope and ability to provide more in-depth investigation. The Victorian YMCA and City of Greater Geelong are also partnering ALFA in this valuable project, which is being led by an industry steering committee coordinated by ARV.

Same Book, New Chapter
Hi stranger, it's been a while… 4 months to be exact. I've given the blog a facelift and thought a life update post was due to accessorize the new look. But this is also a checkpoint for myself, to see where life is at the moment:
- January – May 2012 was a lot of hard work; average 4 hours of sleep, 2 jobs and keeping up with school.
- The hard work paid off and I graduated May 12, 2012 with a bachelor's degree in public relations and marketing communications!
- I celebrated my 21st birthday. Note to self: I might not remember the night too well, but don't forget I really loved the dresses I wore.
- I accepted an awesome marketing job with a great company, who flew me on a private plane to Montreal on my first day (surreal). I'm thrilled to be starting my career.
- I've met really interesting and inspiring people and hope to keep this trend going.
- I had to say some 'goodbye for now's to my international friends. Sad to see them go but can't wait to reunite.
- I'm the maid of honor for my sister, who's getting married in four months! Let's hope all those wedding blogs I obsessed over in 2010 come to good use.
- The first bullet has kept me from living as healthy as I would like. But being done with school should help me get back to a better lifestyle.
- Even after all my determination to leave Ohio, I'll be here for a few more years. Luckily, that awesome job I landed tends to take me to different places. I think this is for the best.
All in all, I love the place I am in life right now. I've grown up a lot in the last year, and can't wait to keep growing. I'm purposefully living to enjoy and to contribute. My mind has hit the refresh button and is ready to go!
The more exciting part of feeling refreshed is having the new perspective. I see things differently now than 8 months ago. I'm inspired by more real things, and less of the artificial. I'm understanding the impacts of actions and really wanting to find my place to act in good will.
Let's keep this good life going.

Elvis Presley News: delivered by email News Feed SMS
Elvis Presley : Fair & Expo Centers Freedom Hall : Louisville, Kentucky : June 26, 1974
Courier Journal, by Billy Reed (taken from the book 'Elvis, The Concert Years', by Stein Erik Skar)
A middle-aged ex-truck driver from Memphis, Tenn., last night drew a throbbing, screaming mob of some 20.000 to Louisville's Freedom Hall, which - of course - was the largest mob to inhabit that spacious edifice since the last time he was in town. When he finally came on stage, with his hand playing the theme from '2001: A Space Odyssey', his familiar wide shouldered, slim-hipped body was draped with this incredible outfit.
The style was sort of what you might call 'Early Aztec Buck Rogers' - with blue sequined peacocks on front and back and peacock feathers on the flared trousers.

Elvis was in town to perform at Freedom Hall and the WHAS11 TV clip shows the original news coverage, plus that unique footage of Elvis leaving the hotel for Freedom Hall. As an introduction there is footage of Elvis' appearance on November 25, 1956 at the Armory. For more of the 1956 film click the clink below ...

The news feature from WHAS11 TV shows Elvis playing at the Armory, Louisville, Kentucky on November 25, 1956. Although silent, it shows the impact of his show and the arena packed with people. Pure magic!

Elvis Presley: Louisville, Kentucky, June 26, 1974
Elvis introducing Glen D. Hardin (Elvis On Stage, by Keith Alverson)
And then, for some 45 minutes with flashbulbs popping like fireflies in the darkened auditorium, while strobe lights flashed with machine-gun rapidity, while graying grandmothers and halter-topped teeny boppers stood side-by-side and screamed out their ever-livin' lungs, Elvis Presley took everyone on a trip through time and space, a journey from reality to yesterday to fantasyland and back home again. He stood up there wiggled and waggled, postured and pouted, snarled and snapped. Alternately cruel and caressing, and always laughing - at himself, at his band, mostly at the audience - Elvis proved once again that he still is the only man alive who can bring thousands of women to their knees by standing on his right foot and wiggling his left foot in the air.
The Presley show last night was superb, if you like Presley, although perhaps not worth the $100-$175 that some scalpers reportedly were asking for tickets. The crowd got what it came for - especially the lucky women who latched onto the the multi-colored autographed scarfs that Elvis continually wrapped around his sweaty neck before bestowing them on members of the audience. Everybody on leaving, seemed to be in a happy, contented mood. The entertainment was so captivating, in fact, that it almost made you forget the slick, high-pressure hard-sell that proceeded it. On the way into the auditorium, before the show, at intermission and after it was all over, hawkers were all over the place, pushing everything from the Giant Elvis Photo Album ($3) to Elvis opera glasses ($9) to Elvis buttons ($1). And for the unfortunate majority unable to get close enough to the stage, management thoughtfully provided Super-Sized Elvis Autographed Scarves for a mere $5. Presumably, these scarves were not pre-dipped in Elvis sweat. But, then, who's to know the difference?

Video Preview: Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD
Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD + 16 page booklet. Never before have we seen an Elvis concert from the 50's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered Unreleased Film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. This is an excellent release no fan should be without it. The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people.
We love Elvis Presley !!!!!!!! : So ... Stop, look and listen baby that's our philosophy ... First thing in the morning, last thing at night ... look, stare everywhere and see everything inside ... Stop, look and listen!

If you're like the Watcher, you probably groaned when you first heard about Tony Danza teaching high school English for a reality series. Turns out we were wrong.
"Teach: Tony Danza" (A&E, Fridays) achieves what so few reality series manage: a sense that we're watching real life.
Noted sitcom star Danza tries out the career he thought he would pursue when he was in college: teaching high school English. Real-life Tony Danza turns out to be a lot like the guy we saw in "Taxi" and "Who's the Boss?": more enthusiasm than execution, alternately self-effacing and clueless, yet always well meaning and likeable.
He makes a great protagonist for a subject very much in the public consciousness: how schools are teaching our children.
Danza's foil is his classroom. Anyone who watched the absurdity of "Laguna Beach" will be shocked to see these kids, without makeup, talking about subjects that actually matter.
Grade: A
And rounding up a few leftovers from September ...
"Law & Order: Los Angeles" (NBC) - The first West Coast version of the franchise reminds us of the early days of the original "Law & Order," when the case was king. If anything, it's too spare. B+
"No Ordinary Family" (ABC) - This attempt to weld an action comic book with a family comedy succeeds for the most part, although it doesn't exceed our expectations at either. The larger concern is what happens after the first couple of episodes, once the characters are familiar with their new-new found superpowers? B
"Blue Bloods" (CBS) - A great cast provides the main reason to watch this series, which otherwise doesn't stand out from the CBS-police-drama crowd. B-
"Sister Wives" (TLC) - This series sidesteps any of the many controversies surrounding polygamy, which is unfortunate, because the family members don't make for much of a TV show on their own. What could have been an interesting documentary gets boring fast. D+

I went ahead and installed The Perfect Server Ubuntu/Postfix/Dovecot ISPConfig on another server and the Email works fine. I'm not sure what happened to the previous server but it was just nothing but trouble and months of nonsense.
Everything is working as it should since I did the install from beginning to end on the new server. Thanks for all the help.
I'm not sure how to feel about this as, I didn't resolve the problem, I just did a work-around.

The Rules of Red Lipstick
Sporting red lipstick is more than just a way to channel your inner screen siren. Wear the classic hue, and your teeth may instantly appear whiter. Here, makeup artist Susan Posnick's tips on how to find your ideal shade
Consider Your Skin Tone
"A red that's too blue can make dark skin look ashy, so women with darker or more olive-toned complexions should look for a red with a neutral base."
Try: L'Oréal Paris Colour Riche Lipcolour in British Red ($9, drugstores).

Alright, so even with the flash new website I've still been too damn busy with work to organize anything... UNTIL NOW!
Behold, the first LAN party of 2014!
For the newcomers, these are not what you'd consider 'formal' events. $20 gets you in for the whole weekend, including accommodation. A further $20 gets you cooked hot meals courtesy of our main man phatputer too - $40 for cooked dinners, a place to sleep and video games with like minded folk for a whole weekend? It's a goddamn steal!
And who knows? Perhaps we'll have come up with the evil master plan and have some bangin' good internet out there by then too!
Expressions of interest via Facebook and we'll see you there!
