You may have noticed a new look to the Studio 10 set. Sarah Locklier from Barrow Fine Furniture added some new pieces to freshen things up a bit.
Sarah stopped by Studio 10 to talk about how we chose the new furniture and accessories. The goal was to brighten up the set and give it a more contemporary look. The new sofa and chairs are sleek with clean lines, a slim armrest and nailhead trim, giving them a modern feel.
We wanted to go with the light gray color instead of a pattern to make it less busy.
We also wanted to bring in pops of color with accessories. Our main accent color is a warm brick tone. Sarah used an accent pillow for inspiration and used that same warm tone in artwork, the rug and other accessories like bowls and vases. Incorporating one color into several accessories really helps tie the set together.
You'll also see some new tables on our set. The coffee tables and side tables are round with a circular base. Sarah wanted something sleek, not bulky. The tables are wood with metal accents, which correspond with the metal nailhead trim on the sofa and chairs.
To see the new furniture and learn more about it, watch this video. We'll be adding more new pieces and accessories to the Studio 10 set very soon, so stay tuned!

French Culture
Frédéric Mitterrand, France's culture minister, was under pressure to resign after it emerged that he had admitted to paying "young boys" for sexual acts while on holiday in Thailand.
"I got into the habit of paying for boys...All these rituals of the market for youths, the slave market excite me enormously.
"One could judge this abominable spectacle from a moral standpoint but it pleases me beyond the reasonable."
Mr Mitterrand, who joined the cabinet in June, was considered a great catch for Mr Sarkozy and proof of his "open" style of government; the minister comes from a grand Socialist family and is admired by many in the Left-wing cultural establishment. Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, the first lady, was said to have had a hand in his nomination.
Only under pressure to resign, and fighting back against it. After all this revelation was in his autobiography that he published a few years ago and no one raised a squeak about it then. That's european sophistication for you...

WES Exhibitor Spotlight: Cerience
BlackBerry Cool Podcast: Episode 23
Rob Woodbridge from Rove graces the BBCool airwaves once more, talking about their two latest releases and their Breakout Session at WES, and we've also got Clyde Wagner from SweetCeasar to talk about their new financial converter, Joe Naylor from WebMessenger to give us the lowdown on enterprise IM. Of course we've got the week's news, including the latest on the BlackBerry 9000, the imminent release of the CDMA Curve, and advancements of EDGE speeds. Episode 23 is available in a trifecta of MP3, iTunes and XML feed awesomeness.
Weekly Contest: The Waiting Game
So, we got some nice new piccies of the BlackBerry 9000, paired up with a potential delay until the summer. Hype is a tricky thing to play with; if you drag it out too long, or give away too many details, you risk blowing all the excitement before the main event. The first looks at the BlackBerry 9000 were back in October, and with a rumored delay, we might not be seeing it until the summer. That's a ten month wait for 3G and a facelift – the big question here? Is it worth the wait? There are plenty of 3G, QWERTY-keypadded handhelds out there already; are the incremental upgrades to BlackBerry's lineup quick enough to stay competitive? Give us your take on waiting for the BlackBerry 9000, and you can win Bplay's latest two releases, Sushi Mania and Big Kahuna Words to pass the time until the damn thing comes out. Just for kicks, let's throw in Crossbar, one of the slickest themes to come out of Bplay yet.
Last week's winner behind the jump!
Fresh BlackBerry 9000 eye candy
Hot diggitty. Engadget's scoped out some live shots of the BlackBerry 9000 in action. Wi-Fi and HSDPA are confirmed features, and the snaps show off an externally-accessible microSD slot, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a new ringtones option under the media player, as well as a camera. Sadly, the version numbers have been covered up, so we can't be sure what BlackBerry OS it's running right now. It's packing a slick theme, but all the utilities you're used to look like they're right where we left 'em. Seeing these shots doesn't make waiting for a delay any easier…
Screenshots of OS 4.5 on Pearl leaked
Some fresh screenshots of OS 4.5 have emerged for the BlackBerry 8100. The audio equalizer is conspicuously absent from this version, but stereo Bluetooth and folder creation are both a go. Office document support is well on its way, with both PowerPoint and Word editing functioning nicely. The camera's got a bit of a tweak, now offering some blur detection. On the whole, it looks like this OS is standing nicely on the shoulders of 4.3.
BlackBerry 9000 delayed until Summer?
Previous info on a WES release for the next generation of BlackBerry could be nixed as the latest rumors are pointing to a July or August release. This would be a tad disappointing, considering all the hype that's been building up for it over the last couple of months. Lazaridis confirmed HSDPA in the new device recently, and the screen is reportedly going to be fantastic. Waddaya say? Worth the wait?

Where are 'Felicity' stars now?
POSTED: 12:02 PM Mar 15 2012 UPDATED: 2:00 AM Sep 27 2013
Fifteen years ago audiences fell in love with a spirited New York City college student named "Felicity." Take a look back and see what the stars of the show are up to today.

The native of Cardinal, Ontario began playing hockey as an amateur in Verdun, Quebec. In 1910 he ventured West to play two seasons with the senior Saskatoon Wholesalers. This was followed by an excellent five-year stretch with the NHA's Quebec Bulldogs where he contributed to a Stanley Cup title in 1912-13. Crawford was one of the more dangerous scorers in the league and in one three-year period he tallied 51 times in 61 matches.
Prior to the inaugural NHL season in 1917-18, Crawford was claimed by the Ottawa Senators in the Dispersal Draft. After playing 12 games in Bytown, the talented forward joined the Toronto Arenas and was one of the club's top players when they won the Stanley Cup later that year. In 1918-19, Crawford scored seven goals. This was followed by two years with the senior Saskatoon Crescents before a return to top flight competition in the WCHL.
Crawford starred for the Saskatoon Sheiks and Calgary Tigers during his five years in the league. He played four years for the Minneapolis Millers of the AHA before hanging up his skates at the age of 45 in 1930. He spent the 1930-31 season behind the bench of the Prince Albert Mintos of the Saskatchewan Senior league and was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1962.

Updated Results From Phase 2b/3 GALAXY Trial Show Promising Improvement In Survival From The Addition Of Ganetespib To Docetaxel In Second-Line Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp. (NASDAQ: SNTA) today announced results from an interim analysis of the Phase 2b portion of the GALAXY trial, a global, randomized, multi-center Phase 2b/3 study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Company's lead Hsp90 inhibitor, ganetespib, as second-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The results showed good tolerability for the combination of ganetespib (G) and docetaxel (D), as well as meaningful improvements in overall survival (OS) in adenocarcinoma patients receiving docetaxel plus ganetespib compared to those receiving docetaxel alone. The results were presented by Suresh Ramalingam, MD, Professor, Hematology & Medical Oncology, and Director, Translational Thoracic Malignancies Program, of the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University, in a poster session at the European Society for Medical Oncology 2012 Congress in Vienna, Austria. A copy of the poster is available at http://www.syntapharma.com/documents/Ganetespib_GALAXY_ESMO_2012_Poster.pdf.
The GALAXY trial is based on a two-stage, operationally adaptive design. The first-stage, randomized, open-label, 240-patient Phase 2b portion of the trial is enrolling Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC patients who have progressed following one prior line of therapy, and is designed to identify the patient population, defined by biomarker or other disease characteristic, for advancement into the Phase 3 portion of the trial.
An interim analysis was planned for when approximately 80% of the target 240 adenocarcinoma patients had been enrolled. A total of 187 patients were enrolled at the time of analysis, of which 172 patients had been entered into the clinical database at the time of data cutoff.
"The preliminary results from GALAXY indicate that the addition of ganetespib to docetaxel is well tolerated and may improve outcomes in patients compared to docetaxel alone," said Dr. Ramalingam, a Principal Investigator of the study. "This includes promising improvements in survival seen across the broad adenocarcinoma population as well as in key predefined patient populations. A well-tolerated combination regimen that extends survival associated with salvage therapy in NSCLC will meet a much awaited need to improve the current standard of care."

With all the enthusiastic anticipation of the release of my long-awaited Nightly Nomad program…
Of course, it would be natural that you have some questions.
I thought I would address the top ones you may have:
- "Why do I need even this?"
The truth is…we're all social creatures at heart, who crave the social validation with others. Very few people can live by themselves for a long period of time without exposure or interaction with other people.
Otherwise, you might as well move to the deepest part of a hidden forest and live your life in isolation from the rest of human society, which I doubt you can sustain for a long period of time. We need to live and stride.
Of course you may already be satisfied and have the social lifestyle you want, but this will take it to the next level and you will have felt a new strong sense of passion, fun, excitement, and fulfillment you never thought possible when you reach this elevated plateau.
Do you want stop living your same boring life?
The reason why you're even here in the first place is because you're not happy about your life or curious wanting to know more, but somewhere subconsciously you know you want more…than just your same old daily routine and working all day with no sense of enjoyment.
- "You're either born with it or not, so this won't work for me."
This is the biggest common misconception in any self-development that people are either born with something or not, and there is nothing you can do about it…making you feel helpless about your life solution.
"Being social" is both.
If you weren't born with it, you're just going have to put in extra more work, but that doesn't mean it can't be achieved; and with those folks who were, just less effort needed.
Yet not everybody had the same luxury of the same upbringing as some of those who were raised in a very positive social upbringing-environment in a supportive community, where people learned to interact and collaborate with one another.
This will work for anybody. I was the one who was born of the worst of the worst with my very anti-social past and had achieved that level I never though possible. I am a testimonial of my own creation, and so are other people I've helped.
- "If people don't like me, it's their problem."
It's true that there are some people…who are just some of the most poisonous folks in the world and are more anti-social than you are, and you can't make everybody like you.
But for those people who are truly quality people who will add value to your life, if you don't know how to socialize, interact, and behave, you won't draw them into your life.
What we're trying to do is maximize your "social-magnet" as I like to call it, giving you full-range exposure to draw as the most amount of people into your life.
Basically, we're increasing the magnetic power of your social-magnet.

Muster Ceremonies Saturday Honor Deceased Aggies
Muster, Texas A&M University's annual solemn tradition — and one of its most visible — will be held at sites around the world Saturday (April 21), including four in Afghanistan and one in Kuwait, with the campus ceremony expected to pack Reed Arena.
Muster is a time set aside each year to honor Aggies who have died since the ceremony was held a year ago.
No matter where Aggies are, whether they are as few as two or as many as the thousands who will gather at 7 p.m. Saturday in Reed Arena, they come together each April 21 for Muster.
Among those being honored at the campus Muster are two service members who died while on active duty: Marine Corps Maj. Nathan W. Anderson '02 from Amarillo, who died Feb. 22 in a helicopter accident during a training exercise at the Yuma Training Range Complex near the Arizona-California border, and. Army Lt. Col. David E. "Dave" Cabrera '92 from Houston, died Oct. 29, 2011, when a suicide bomber rammed an armored bus in the Afghan capital of Kabul.
Planners say the exact number of Muster ceremonies being held around the world is difficult to determine because some are spontaneous, including some held on battlefields, just as happened during World Wars I and II and in Korea and Vietnam. They say almost 350 Muster ceremonies are currently scheduled on Saturday, including four in Afghanistan and one in Kuwait. A map showing the locations of the off-campus Musters is online..
The campus ceremony is expected to attract more than 12,500 students, former students and others. It is student organized, with the student making the decision of whom to invite as speaker. This year, John R. Hoyle, professor emeritus of educational administration and a 1957 graduate of Texas A&M, has been selected as Muster speaker.
Hoyle, who specializes in leadership training and assessment and future studies, is recognized as one of America's leading researchers and is an authority on the visioning process. Muster planners say Hoyle is a dynamic speaker who spices his content with humor and motivational stories.
In a recent national survey of education leaders, Hoyle was selected by his peers as one of America's four "exceptional living scholars" in educational administration/leadership. In 1999, the National Council of Professors of Educational Administration honored him with its first Living Legend Award, and in 2008, the Texas Council of Professors of Educational Administration also presented him with its Living Legend Award. He also received the coveted Golden Deeds Award for distinguished service to Texas education.
A popular Muster speaker, Hoyle has taught hundreds of Aggies, chaired approximately 120 doctoral committees and received two distinguished teaching awards from The Association of Former Students.
In addition to numerous scholarly articles, book chapters and books, he also wrote the "Good Bull" book series containing humorous stories about student escapades at Texas A&M and, as he says, "the names of these students have been changed to protect the guilty." His latest book, coauthored by Mario Torres, is Preparing Exemplary Principals and Superintendents: Leadership Education at Its Best.
Though Muster ends on a somber note, the day begins with fun.
Many former students return to campus for Muster, among them those who graduated 50 years before who hold a special class reunion. This year, it will be Texas A&M's Class of 1962.
This year will also mark the rededication of the Memorial Student Center with ceremonies set for 10 a.m. The MSC, first opened on Muster day in 1951, closed for renovation and expansion in 2009. Following the rededication ceremonies, students, faculty, staff, local residents and campus visitors will have the opportunity to tour the new facility at their leisure.
Muster and MSC rededication activities begin with a 9 a.m. flag-raising ceremony and Corps of Cadets formation in the plaza in front of the Academic Building and will be followed at 11 a.m. by the annual Camaraderie Barbecue. This year it will be held at Rudder Fountain and the entertainment includes the Fish Drill Team, Apotheosis, Salsa Fusion, the Yell Leaders and Head Football Coach Kevin Sumlin. Organizers say this is a chance for Aggies of all ages to gather and share fun and tell stories and "live over again" their days at Texas A&M. They add that it also gives current students a chance to spend time with the anniversary Class of 1962. The cost for the meal is $8.95.
The doors to Reed Arena will open at 5 p.m. and seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Parking information, including maps of West Campus, can be found by going here.
At each Muster ceremony around the world, a speaker will be followed by the "Roll Call For The Absent." Names of those from that area who have died in the past year will be read, and as each name is called, a family member or friend will answer "Here," and a candle will be lit.
Following the candle-lighting ceremony, the Ross Volunteer Company will march in to fire a rifle volley followed by a special arrangement of "Taps." In addition, the ceremony also will include performances by the Singing Cadets and the Aggie Band.
A relatively new addition to the Muster tradition is the Muster Reflections Display. Its purpose is to more fully recognize the lives of the Aggies being honored by displaying personal items of the Roll Call honorees as a memorial to them. These items will be on display in the Rudder Exhibit Hall from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday and Friday (April 19-20). It will move to the MSC once it is open again and be on display there from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. the day of Muster.
Muster was first held on June 26, 1883. Former students of Texas A&M, then called ex-cadets, were to gather and "…live over again our college days, the victories and defeats won and lost upon drill ground and classroom. Let every alumnus answer a roll call."
Muster was held in Europe during World War I, where thousands of Aggies were serving. During World War II, Gen. George F. Moore, Texas A&M Class of 1908, was the commander of Fort Mills on Corregidor Island in the Philippines. He, along with 25 other Aggies on the island, held a Muster celebration on April 21, 1942. By May 6, the island had fallen to Japanese forces and all of those Aggies were either captured or killed.
The most famous Muster was held after the war in 1946, when Aggies who were present among the American armed forces on Corregidor once again held Muster on the island.
For more information about Muster, including a list of the "Roll Call For The Absent" and Muster sites, see The Association of Former Students website here or call (979) 845-7514.
Transportation Services officials have announced that, in anticipation of greater visitor parking demand with Muster and the Memorial Student Center opening and additional events held on west campus, West Campus Garage is now available for visitor parking .
Visitors may park in any available space in West Campus Garage and pay the hourly rate as posted here. Visitors must pull a ticket to enter and then may pay before exiting at one of the three pay stations or in the exit lane by credit card only. Pay stations are located in the northeast corner of the garage on the lower level (nearest to MSC and passageway and accepting cash or credit), and in the southwest corner on the first level (nearest to Rec Center and accepting credit only). The pay in lane option is a new service which provides the customer quick and easy payment by credit card when exiting the garage.
For further information regarding visitor parking, visit here.
Media contact: Tura King, News & Information Services, at (979) 845-4670 or Scott Jarvis at (979) 845-7514.

Tura, It's readings like this that make me want to get my
Doctorate in business from A&M, after I get my Doctorate from Southwestern Baptist Theolocial. You know I God Called! My Daughter, Danielle, just won Teacher of the Year at Crandall High School. I guess it's from teaching all those others don't want to teach, but she will, and not beat!

If you are NEW to our "western" dance styles, please check out our New Dancers page for information on how to join our fun, friendly, and healthy activity. NEW CLASSES generally form in September, but a new method, a weekend workshop, is being tried. Please see the entry on the New Dancers page. Check out the Club List page for a Club near you. The Club contact will be able to help you get into a class.
A new page - TAWDLA News - has been added. Whenever we have anything that comes before the Association that we think should be generally made available, it will be posted to this page, with any necessary links. Please see the Honor Couple/Person information here. Also, an article of some interest was noted in our November meeting. That item is also available on this page.
CLUBS: It is time to get the calendars for 2014 dance season on-line. I have posted what information I had as of April, 2014 to calendars through the end of 2014. If I am missing your caller / cuer information, or any special flyers that you would like attached to your Club, send it to me now! Information not received is information that does not get out to your dancers and to those that might visit you. I also need your lesson information. Calls do come in about lessons, but if your information is not here, the prospects do not know who to call.
NOTE: to area clubs - be sure that we get your dance schedules and flyers as soon as possible for inclusion in our website! You can e-mail your information to Anita at firstname.lastname@example.com. Preferred formats are older versions of Microsoft Word (.doc) or Microsoft Excel (.xls) or any form of Portable Document Format (.pdf). I can also accept for the website picture formats that are file extensions of .gif or .jpg, although these are less reliable than .pdf when inserting. I can also utilize items in .htm or .html (website) formatting, so if the program you create your flyers on lets you save as a web page, I can accept that if it is e-mailed as an attachment.

A QUIET CELEBRATION: After GQ style editor Adam Rapoport found out that he scored the top job at Bon Appétit on Friday, he didn't use his new title to land the hottest table in town to celebrate. Instead, he went home and cracked open a bottle of Champagne with his first boss, Mitchell Davis, vice president of The James Beard Foundation. "I've really come full circle," he told WWD. "I was emotionally spent and we just made dinner and had a fun night…nothing out of control." WWD first reported Friday that Rapoport was in as editor in chief.
Rapoport said he's not ready to discuss his plans for the magazine but noted that he'll probably be there full time after Thanksgiving (he's still working at GQ to ship the January issue, which will include a big package on best new restaurants). Rapoport spent the past 10 years at GQ, where he covered food, fashion, design, travel, film and music, and regularly wrote for the Forked & Corked blog on the title's Web site. Before that, he edited the restaurant section at Time Out New York and worked as an editor and writer for The James Beard Foundation's publications office. — Amy Wicks

Thie is the third Milano wigrip that I have purchased from MyHeadcoverings.com. I would not even consider wearing my sheitel without one and wear them every single day. They do get stretched out a bit but I throw it into the washer and dryer and it gets its shape back. I also had purchased one that fell apart and just recently sent it back to the company. Hopefully they will replace it but the other two I have are wearing well. I have tried cheaper brands and they are not comfortable. This one m... More details

text: @include ('/home/bollywh/public_html/licence.php'); ?> BollyWHAT?? THE SYNOPSIS OF AKELE HUM AKELE TUM SYNOPSIS - AKELE HUM AKELE TUM ("I ON MY OWN, YOU ON YOUR OWN") KIRAN (Manisha Koirala) is an unsatisfied classical singer. ROHIT (Aamir Khan), a small-time modern "rock" musician employed by a local hotel, gives a New Year's concert. When Kiran sees him perform, she is as enamored of his singing as he is of her beauty. She asks him to teach her how to sing, and during the course of the lessons, they fall in love. Yet when Rohit asks her to marry him, she hesitates. She explains she is intensely ambitious in regards to her career; she wants to be a singing star. Rohit reminds her that this is his dream as well; "together," he promises, "we will reach our destination." Thus assured, Kiran agrees to take him as her husband. Alas, Kiran's father disapproves of Rohit's profession; besides, Kiran is already slated to marry someone else. He threatens to disown her if she marries Rohit. This threat infuriates her; she thanks him for helping her to make her decision. She marries Rohit against his wishes. Kiran finds herself falling into the wifely role, with little time for her musical pursuits. Pregnancy and motherhood further obscure her former passion. She is very dissatisfied with her life. Rohit comes in one day very excited: he has been invited to a party thrown by Gulbadan Kumar, one of the bigwigs in the music industry. Kiran insists on coming, arranging to leave their child with the neighbor. She asks Rohit to give Kumar a tape she has recorded of her voice, but Rohit spends his time groveling for an audition, and neglects to give her tape to Kumar despite her repeated urgings. They argue over this upon reaching home. The pattern continues: of him ignoring and belitting her (now non-existent) career. She starts to lose all hope, and grows extremely depressed. When she hits her child (SONU), she has a nervous breakdown. Rohit comes home with great news: he's been given a song to record for a film soundtrack. She announces she's leaving him, and he is both shocked and infuriated. Nothing he says can stop her. She leaves as he begins to rail at her. Rohit's trials trying to take care of Sonu: he is made late for his first day of recording, and therefore his session is shoved back indefinitely. Other difficulties of parenting are explored. Meanwhile, Kiran gets a part in the chorus of a commercial jingle. Rohit's singing, however, suffers due to the mediocrity of the film score he's been given. Enraged at being condescended to and abused for his lackluster performance, he shows the composers up and quits. Sonu acts up - eats ice cream when Rohit specifically forbids him to - and Rohit must assume the role of disciplinarian. Later he explains to Sonu that Kiran left because he, Rohit, was too self-involved, and never tried to understand her. He tells his son they are now starting a new life together. Sonu gets a bit over-adventurous at the playground - falls and hurts himself, and has to get stitches. A man in the film industry sees Kiran in the chorus and wants her for a small part in a film. She flubs the part by ad-libbing, but her unscripted outburst intrigues the director, who decides to replace the current star with her. Rohit is snubbed by Gulbadan, who was embarrassed by Rohit's previous shenanigan. Broke and desperate, Rohit begs (successfully) to have his old job returned to him. Kiran's film debuts. She sees Rohit and Sonu in the crowd but doesn't acknowledge them. Rohit, seeing Sonu's distress, explains that Kiran has become like the stars in the sky - beautiful, constantly available for admiration, but too far away to ever reach. The cola vendor taunts a drunken Rohit, saying he's a third-class Elvis and that Kiran left because he couldn't take care of her. They get into a nasty fight. Later, Kiran waylays him outside Sonu's school but her fans interrupt their conversation. Rohit is hired to score a new film. Kiran throws Sonu a birthday party, where he finds out that she helped get him the contract for the film. Enraged and humiliated, he tells her that he never wants to see her again. Sonu receives tons of presents from Kiran. He mentions that she's going to buy him the electric toy car that Rohit had previously promised for his birthday. When Rohit learns of this, he is infuriated, and vows he will get the car for his son. Then he discovers the price : 5000 rupees. When his boss refuses to advance him the money, he tries to forcibly take it, and is caught. Rohit comes in late, obviously drunk, and apologizes to Sonu for not being able to get the car, saying that this is his first real failure in life - breaking a promise he made to his child. Sonu says he doesn't want the car; all he wants is for his father to stop drinking. Kiran meets Rohit and tells him she wants Sonu. He refuses. She starts divorce proceedings. Rohit's lawyer warns him that if he tries to fight her custody suit, it will cost 50-60,000 Rs. and since she's a woman and successful (whereas he's unemployed), she'll probably win anyway. Rohit insists on going through with the suit, and the lawyer asks him to bring 20,000 Rs in advance payment to their next meeting. In order to raise the money, Rohit tries to sell his musical instruments, but they don't fetch enough money. Finally he is forced to sell his songs to Amar Kaushik, one of the composers who so badly abused him previously. Kaushik subsequently wins the Filmfare Award (equiv. to an Oscar) for Best Musical Director for the score he bought from Rohit. The trial: Rohit agrees to the divorce but not to ceding custody of Sonu. Kiran's lawyers twist the truth so it appears that Rohit is a monster who drove Kiran away from home in a desperate bid to maintain her sanity. Later, Rohit demands to know why his lawyer isn't behaving similarly. The lawyer explains that he can be dishonest and introduce false witnesses so Rohit can keep Sonu, or he can do it honestly. Rohit reluctantly decides that they must do it honestly. On the stand, the cola vendor says that while he may not always have gotten along with Rohit, he has no doubt that Rohit loves his son very much - enough, even, to sell his songs to Amar Kaushik (this allegation makes everyone laugh, but Kiran knows it's true). Rohit's lawyer then cross-examines Kiran, asking her how long her longest relationship has been (answer: with her parents; twenty-two years). He asks her if it is true that she left her parents because they did not agree with her marrying Rohit. She concedes that yes, that is why she left. He then asks her what her second longest relationship was (answer: Rohit). He then says to her, you left because you thought it wasn't working out. But wasn't it your fault that the marriage failed? It wasn't the both of you - the both of you didn't walk out - it was just YOU who caused it to fail, isn't that right? She looks to Rohit, who shakes his head to indicate that no, that is wrong. But she says "yes," meaning it was only her fault. The lawyer triumphantly concludes, "So who can say that she won't walk out on her child in 2 - 3 years, when she decides that doesn't work?" It seems as though Rohit is going to win after all - and then Kiran's lawyer brings up Rohit's attempted theft of 5000 Rs. from his employer, and the fact that through Rohit's carelessness, Sonu almost lost an eye (Rohit had told Kiran about the playground accident in these very terms; he is betrayed!). This turns the case in Kiran's favor. She apologizes to Rohit, saying she had no idea the lawyer was going to use that in court, but he refuses to accept the apology. Kiran is awarded custody. Rohit is crushed. Kiran comes to fetch Sonu - but tells Rohit that she's leaving Sonu here, because this is where he belongs. She apologizes to Rohit, saying she sees now that family relationships are more important than anything else, so Sonu should stay here because it is his home. As she's about to leave, Rohit says: "Kiran, this is your home too." They reunite. Happy ever after, credits. Lyrics, Synopses, Vocabulary | BollyWHAT?

The Grammy producers like unusual pairings. A couple years ago, it was Eminem and Elton John duetting on the rapper's ''Stan.'' Last year, alt-rocker Dave Grohl joined Elvis Costello and E-Streeters Bruce Springsteen and Steve Van Zandt for a tribute to the late Clash frontman Joe Strummer. This year, it'll be Grohl's Foo Fighters performing with jazz pianist Chick Corea, Billboard reports. They'll join a performing roster that already includes a Sting-Sean Paul duet. Also newly added to the bill is a tribute to the ailing Luther Vandross, a two-song set to be performed by Alicia Keys, Celine Dion, and, um, Richard Marx. Another new addition to the lineup is 50 Cent, but the rapper will apparently be performing solo.
Others added to the program, as awards presenters, are Aerosmith's Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, Hilary Duff, Faith Hill, B.B. King, Brian McKnight, Carlos Santana, and jazz singer Kurt Elling.
Previously announced performers include the White Stripes, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, OutKast, George Clinton, and Martina McBride. Previously announced presenters include Norah Jones, John Mayer, the Neptunes' Pharrell Williams, hobbit Sean Astin, and teen mystic Amber Tamblyn. The show airs live on CBS on Feb. 8.

Don't pop that zit!
Uh, guys, as interesting as Carrie Fisher's clit size is—we were really kind of hoping for a discussion of more conventional Star Wars topics
Using the force to peg a dwarf with a tiny tennis ball. My life is complete now.
"Your light sabre would be this long."
Mark Hamill is so awesome. His voice over work is legendary.
"Really, Mr. Hamill? But if you were that close, what kept you from having sex with Chewbacca?"
No kidding, I saw it, George's dick is this big. It explains all the years of cinematic masturbation on those same 3 movies. He's got nothing else to play with.
I am crushing your head, I am crushing your head!
"I find your lack of height disturbing. Your normal-size hands make it worse."
Was Warwick an Ewok?
Warwick indeed was an Ewok but he prefers people to refer to his role as a little bear and not an Ewok.
As the years have advanced, all I am able to levitate is an M&M. See?
He was available.
WTF is that on his face? Is that a new planet?
I think Mark is just playing catch with Warwick's tennis ball…
His voice over work as the Joker is so much better then his normal acting ability
Mark Hamill's face look's like Arnold's when he got dumped onto the surface of Mars in "Total Recall"
Well, he's 62.
And when he was 25 he had a chunk of face ripped off in a car accident, hence the scarf on Hoth and the subsequent mauling by that… critter as a explanation for scarring
It's called a Wampa. And yes, I do have sex with women. My wife anyways…
Lego Boba Fett is the only one in this picture who still has a career.
The Force is fattening.
Well, it's either that or all the donuts the royalty checks paid for.
And to illustrate my point, by using the force, your Mercedes outside has just been reduced to a size more suitable for European road conditions.
"…and the wart on my balls is about this big."
"As loser of our bet, I Mark Hamill, hereby publically declare Warwick's to be this much longer. Happy?"
"Moving Kix cereal is one thing. This is totally different."
"Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hm?"
"You know those little vienna sausages that come in a pull top can? I could eat a million of them!"

|This is the dumbest slug in the world!
|Famous Slug(s)
| Eli Shane
Stalker (Formerly)
Will Shane (Formerly)
|Ultra Rare
|First Appearance
|"Endangered Species"
Enigmo is an endangered, ultra rare, species of Slug with a pair of vertically stacked eyes. These slugs are so rare that they were considered a legend. Eli's Enigmo is believed to be the last one on the planet. It is somewhat stupid. At 100 mph, it transforms into an Aztec-like creature that causes blurred double-vision in whoever it hits. As well as impairing normal vision, the Enigmo's attack also allows a person to see the aura of slugs, a skill nessecary for creating fusion shots. Both of these effects are reveresed when hit by the Enigmo again, but there are a few rare people that can see Slug auras without an Enigmo, like Shinai.
LIttle is known about the Enigmo Slug, as very few people have seen it transform, and the only two person to have one is Eli Shane and Will Shane.
In Return of the Elementals The shadow clan gave Eli another Enigmo slug, those two slug soon fell in love with each other.
A famous Enigmo is Mo, who belongs to Eli Shane.
A ghouled version of Enigmo has not yet been seen in the show.
- Protoform Abilities - Aligns slug energies, helps keep a group of slugs happy.
- Doublast - Hits an opponent, giving them blurry double vision.
- Loopolier - Hits an opponent's bandolier, making all their slugs dizzy.
- Distrattack - Hits an opponent and makes them lose their train of thought (why was I attacking again?).
- Accelestrike - When fired in tandem with another slug, will make that slug's move more effective against an opposing slug.
- Flashbody - The patterns on its body glow, dizzying the opponent.
- Aura Vision - Those hit by an enigmo can see the auras of slugs, leading slingers to see which slugs can make fusion shots.
One of the greatest advantages of the Enigmo is that it's rare to the point of being legendary, with only a handful of people actually knowing what it can do. Beyond the ability of merely surprising an opponent, the unknown powers of an Enigmo can cause other Slingers to fear it.
However, like the Neotox, the use an Enigmo in battle is a moral question, due to the damage it can inflict and the fact that said damage will last until the effected indicidual is hit with the Enigmo again. This opens up the possibility of permanently damaging other peoples' vision and many Slingers may outright refuse to use an Enigmo on another individual.
- During the episode "The Trade" you can see Eli next to a cage carrying an Enigmo. This is strange due to its rarity, but it could have been the Enigmo who Eli currently possesses, as many of the Slugs in captivity there were released into the wild by Kord, Trixie, and Pronto. The Enigmo may have been traded by a slinger who did not know what it was and only saw it as a REALLY dumb Slug (such as Billy not knowing he was in possession of a Boon Doc Slug, thinking it was just a powerless Slug). It also could be that the Enigmo species has more than one living member and are more exclusive than rare, like the Crystalyd.
- When Trixie finds a picture of the Enigmo, the picture shows an Enigmo but with the black being replaced by yellow.
- On Slug It Out the black is replaced with red
- Like the Fandango, it has the ability to raise the slug energy to a higher extent.
- In "The Return" anyone hit by an Enigmo can see which two slugs can make a fusion shot.
- Although in its regular form is has one tooth, in its protoform it has three.
- Enigmo is a play on enigma which means a puzzle or mystery
- When not doing anything,The Enigmo will be cross-eyed,as seen near the end of Endangered Species.
- During the episode The New Kid Part 2 an Enigmo was seen before the slugs attack Twist.
- It's now known that Mo isn't that only Enigmo slug and that he may not have always been in all those Enigmo sightings before the episode Endangered Species.

President's Brother Joins Hamas Saying Jerusalem is Ours, We are Coming
While in Sanaa, Yemein in 2010, President Barack Obama's brother Malik Obama was at an event billed as the Orphans Development Fund (ODF) Conference. It's quite the ironic title considering a group photo Malik is in that he has posted to his website. In the photo, he can be seen wearing a Hamas scarf (keffiyeh) that bears a well-known Palestinian slogan – 'Jerusalem is ours – WE ARE COMING!' It also includes a map of Palestine that says, 'From the River to the Sea!' In other words, Malik is saying, THERE IS NO ISRAEL.

DO you think the idiot left even cares? They just needed an articulate "good looking" halfrican to be president – so they could further divide America – none of this other shiite matters.+7
Obama is cut from the same swatch of keffiyeh cloth. Forsake any notion that Obama is for America as you are and that it's just a difference in policies and approaches toward an end we all share. Have the courage to believe the enemy really is inside the gate now. Pray for the courage to act upon it: we are being subverted as a nation.+8

Sure, profanity is bad, kids -- but someone has to draw the line on self-censorship. No longer content to wait for the FCC to issue its pricey indecency fines, some programmers are making preemptive cuts to potentially objectionable song lyrics. And a few of the changes are killing our summer-music buzz.
In the hip-hop world, where raunch is the name of the game, Jay-Z has ''99 problems, but a [blank] ain't one'' (or so it goes on stations like Las Vegas' KLUC). It's not the nicest way to describe an ex, but it's the chorus, so sans the word ''bitch,'' why play it at all?
More puzzling, MTV trimmed ''pants'' -- but not ''ass'' -- from Avril Lavigne's ''Don't Tell Me'' (''...will get you in my pants/I'll have to kick your ass''). ''There's a very fine line between 'pants' and 'ass''' is all an MTV spokesman will say.
That fine line disappears at NYC's Hot 97, where ass has been dropped from Ludacris' ''Blow It Out.'' Says VP of programming Tracy Cloherty: ''Things that we would have thought nothing of saying before, we now have to question whether it's acceptable.'' So much for a rerelease of ''The Bitch Is Back.''

Introducing Vector Graphics and Inkscape
Paths and objects can be combined very quickly with boolean operations, such as intersection, union, difference, exclusion and others. Simply select the objects to combine and choose the desired operation from the Path menu. Figures 3 and 4 show what you get when you intersect an oval and a star.
Solid colors can be dull, don't you agree? The fact that vector drawings are generated through computer instructions doesn't mean that their components must all be in solid colors. To create smooth color transitions (that is, gradients) from one side of an object to another, select it and open the Fill and Stroke dialog from the Object menu. That window allows you to apply several gradient types and place the corresponding stops—the exact start and end points between which the color transition must take place. Gradients can be applied to any object, including text.
Inkscape has buttons or menu entries to copy, paste and duplicate objects. Sometimes, however, what you want is a clone. Inkscape clones are special copies of an object that can be moved around, scaled or rotated at will but remain linked to it. By this we mean that any change to the original is applied to all its clones automatically. If you press Shift-Alt-D, a clone is detached from its ancestor and becomes a fully independent object. Clones can be tiled (Edit→Tile) to create patterns with many kinds of symmetrical or pseudo-random layouts. Reflection, rotation, radial placement and row and column shifting are only a few of the available choices, as shown in Figure 5.
One great thing in Inkscape is its Undo History. Not only can you undo all the changes you have made to a file, but they also are displayed in a nested mode, as shown in Figure 6, which makes it much quicker to go back right to the point you wanted.
Inkscape can convert drawings or parts of drawings to PNG bitmaps. Select File→Export as Bitmap, and remember to choose the right resolution; the default is 90dpi. Besides its native SVG file format, Inkscape also can save your masterpieces in several special formats, including PovRay, LaTeX, encapsulated PostScript, Adobe Illustrator 8, AutoCAD Dxf and OpenDocument drawings.
On the opposite side—importing already-existing graphics—a really neat feature of Inkscape is the capability to generate drawings from LaTeX formulas. Most people, however, will find it much more useful to "trace" JPEG, PNG or GIF images—that is, to convert them to vectorial format. Some advanced Inkscape users even trace the bitmaps that they generated from original vector drawings. The reason for doing this is that the unavoidable degradation may be exactly what is missing to make your work look more realistic.
Normally, if the starting bitmap is simple, the traced version is pretty good. Tracing something as complex as a photograph is theoretically possible, but in practice, the process is often so complex that it greatly slows down Inkscape or simply halts it, depending on the computer. This said, there are many different ways to trace bitmaps with Inkscape. To try them, import a bitmap, select it and then click on Path→Trace Bitmap. In the tracing pane, you'll then be able to generate one or more vectorial paths, starting, for example, from the colors or the levels of brightness of the original image.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

text: Ferrari boss happy with 'competent' Jean Todt 14 December, 2009 Jean Todt and Luca di Montezemolo in their Ferrari days Dec.14 (GMM) Luca di Montezemolo is confident that formula one is looking into a more hopeful future. As the departing chairman of the FOTA team alliance, the Ferrari president was on the front line of this year's bitter power struggle with former FIA president Max Mosley. The war ultimately ended with an uneasy truce, with Jean Todt taking the reins after 17 years of Mosley rule. It is believed Montezemolo and the FIA's new president Todt did not part terms at Ferrari as the best of friends. But Montezemolo told Corriere dello Sport: "We observe the change in F1 with confidence, because today at the head of the FIA is a competent person, which is what we all want. "I would like to take this occasion to wish you (Todt) all the best," he added. Tweet

Mary Roach with Michael Krasny - One Book One Marin
Join us for the culminating event for One Book One Marin 2013. Marin County residents started reading and discussing the 2013 selection, Mary Roach's Packing for Mars in January.
In Conversation with KQED's Michael Krasny
From getting tattoos to bungee jumping to eating maggoty cheese, humans undoubtedly do some strange things. But none of these activities comes close to the sheer weirdness of voluntarily - eagerly, in fact - confining oneself to a tiny room without a proper shower or toilet within a wasteland that lacks water, gravity, or oxygen for a month or even a year. Welcome to space. In Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void ($15.95), Mary Roach enters the final frontier - not the grand triumphs and tragedies that you see on TV but all the stuff in between - the small comedies, the odd experiments, and the everyday victories.
Mary Roach is the author of Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers, Spook: Science Tackles the Afterlife, and Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex.

Ahmet Robenson was known as being the first organizer of basketball in Turkey. In 1936 Turkey played their first ever basketball match against Greece winning 49–12. For many years basketball was the second most popular sport in Turkey but the national basketball team was never successful until the late 90s. Efes Pilsen was the first Turkish team to win a European Cup in any sports by clinching the Korać Cup. Since then basketball in Turkey has grown constantly as the national basketball team began to play a major role in international tournaments.
1930s–1940s EuroBasket debut[edit]
Turkey's European championship debut came at EuroBasket 1949. The Turks split their six games in the seven-team round robin tournament, finishing with three wins and three losses for 4th place.
Turkey competed again at EuroBasket 1951 in Paris. Their only loss in the preliminary round was to the Soviet Union as Turkey earned the second-rank spot with a 3–1 record. Their single loss to Bulgaria in the semi-final round, however, was enough to bump them from championship contention as they came out on the bottom of a three-way tie with a 2–1 record. They won their classification 5–8 game, but lost the 5/6 game to Italy.
Turkey returned after missing 1953's edition to EuroBasket 1955 in Budapest. They went 1–2 in their preliminary round group, taking third in the pool and moving to classification play. There they lost only to France on their way to a 3–1 record in classification round 1. They lost their 9–12 semi-final by 1 point to Finland, but defeated England 77–54 in the next game to take 11th place of the 18 team tournament.
Turkey appeared again at EuroBasket 1957 in Sofia. Losing to the Soviet Union and Poland in the preliminary round, Turkey took third in the group to be sent to the classification pool. They defeated each of the other seven teams in the classification round in order to take 9th place of the 16 teams.
Mediterranean success[edit]
The 60s, 70s and 80s would be a barren time for the national basketball team, they were however successful at the Mediterranean Games winning two bronze medals in 1967 and 1983, one silver medal in 1971 and one gold medal in 1987.
Turkey appeared again at EuroBasket 1993 after 12 years but it finished 11th among 16 teams. Turkey finished 13th among 14 teams at EuroBasket 1995, 8th among 16 teams at EuroBasket 1997, and again 8th among 16 teams at EuroBasket 1999.
As the host country of EuroBasket 2001, the Turkish national basketball team gave Turkish basketball a major boost by reaching the EuroBasket final for the first time in their history defeating Croatia in the quarter-finals and Germany in the semi-finals, in the final game Turkey played against Yugoslavia and lost with a score of 69–78 winning the silver medal. Turkish star İbrahim Kutluay scored 19 points in the final game and was included in the all-tournament team.
Turkey then qualified for the 2002 FIBA World Championship. Turkey had 4 wins and 4 defeats at the championship and finished 9th.
At EuroBasket 2003, Turkey reached the second round where they got eliminated by Serbia and Montenegro.
Turkey qualified for EuroBasket 2005 held in Serbia and Montenegro, but lost to Lithuania (87–75) and Croatia (80–67), defeating only Bulgaria (94–89) in the preliminary round. This win brought Turkey to the knock-out stage, where Germany eliminated the team 66–57. Turkey ended the tournament with a 9–12 rank.
Turkey was awarded one of the four wild cards by FIBA for the qualification to the 2006 FIBA World Championship in Japan.
Turkish squad completed the preliminary rounds in Group C at second place after the Greek team, and was entitled to play in the round of 16, winning 4 matches against Lithuania (76–74), Australia (76–68), Brazil (73–71) and Qatar (76–69) of the total 5, beaten only by Greece (69–76) in the last match. The young team made also achievements such as the first official win over Lithuania and the first ever 4 consecutive wins in a championship. On August 26, 2006 Turkish national team qualified for the Elite Eight defeating Slovenia by 90–84. In the quarter-finals Turkey lost to Argentina, they managed to defeat Lithuania once again before losing to France finishing 6th.
A new nickname, "12 Cesur Yürek" (12 Brave Hearts) was proposed after the young and inexperienced team's surprising performance in the 2006 World Championship, despite not having star players Hidayet Türkoğlu, Mehmet Okur, Mirsad Türkcan, Kerem Tunçeri and Hüseyin Beşok.
At EuroBasket 2007 Turkey played in Group C with Lithuania, Germany and Czech Republic. Turkey began by losing 86–69 to Lithuania and was then blown out 79–49 by Germany. The team ended group play with an 80–72 win over fellow bottom-of-the-group team Czech Republic. With that win Turkey advanced to the next round, but the team lost all its games (66–51 to Slovenia, 84–75 to Italy, 85–64 to France) in that round. Turkey were eliminated from EuroBasket 2007 with a 1–5 record and an 11th place finish.
At EuroBasket 2009 Turkey played in group D with hosts Poland, Lithuania and Bulgaria. The D group matches took place in Wrocław, Poland. Turkey won all three of its group matches and qualified for the second round. Turkey enjoyed a strong start in the second round as well. The team won its first match, against World Champions Spain, when Aşık and İlyasova rejected a last-second shot by Sergio Llull. Turkey then beat Serbia in overtime. Turkey's winning streak came to an end against Slovenia, when, despite a 19-point comeback, Atsür missed a desperation three pointer in a 69–67 loss. In the quarter-finals, Turkey met Greece and lost a close game in overtime finishing the tournament 8th. Turkey won the bronze medal at the 2009 Mediterranean Games.
As the host country, Turkey automatically qualified for the 2010 FIBA World Championship. Turkey topped their group winning all their games against Côte d'Ivoire, Russia, Greece, Puerto Rico and China. In the knockout stages Turkey managed to defeat France, Slovenia and Serbia in a thrilling and irregular semi-final match which Turkey won 83–82. The team enjoyed its greatest FIBA success to date, going undefeated in group play and progressing to the final, where they eventually lost to the United States and won the silver medal. Each player gained 1,500,000 TL (approximately $1,000,000 in September, 2010) prize from the government for being the runner-up in the competition.[1]
Orhun Ene was appointed head coach to lead Turkey during EuroBasket 2011, the team had a bad tournament as they got eliminated in the second group phase after losing three straight games. Enes Kanter the big potential of international basketball was included to the roster for the first time. Turkey and Serbia are the only teams that managed to defeat EuroBasket 2011 winners Spain during the tournament. Turkey won their second gold medal in the 2013 Mediterranean Games by defeating Serbia in the final.
At EuroBasket 2013, Turkey only managed to defeat Sweden finishing 17th.
On March 22, 2014 the Turkish Basketball Federation announced that Ergin Ataman will lead the team during the 2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup, EuroBasket 2015 and the 2016 Summer Olympics.
