So far this *looks* like my most promising cycle, its just a bit weird because I'm on day 15 and it looks like I ovulated on day 10, which seems really early and is way earlier than most of my other charts have shown. Which if thats the case DH and I just caught our window this month because he had to travel out of town for work this entire week, which ended up being cycle days 11-15. I was sure this month was doomed because of last minute travel, now I have to sit and wait for what feels like an eternity to find out for sure.
Also my temp dropped just a bit this morning, I've had odd sharp cramping today and I've just been feeling a bit off for the last few days (again still seems a bit early for showing an implantation dip, etc). I'm really hoping I got pregnant this cycle, but I also realize this could all be me wanting to be pregnant really badly too. I'm not due to start my period until sometime in early November, this wait is the worst!
What do you think would be the earliest I could take a pregnancy test, at least how many days past ovulation should I wait? I know Fertility Friend says 18 days, but I'm not sure I can hold out knowing that long if I don't get my period before then.

What people say about JuliaStern
I love spending time on nude teen webcams with young girls who have small tits! I have some kind of fetish for them since I am 16 when I started watching teenager porn clips frequently, so it really fitted my taste. I don't really like huge silicone juggs, since they don't attract me at all! In my humble opinion it's much better, if teens, like JuliaStern, have smaller titties but instead a tight butt. Now that is when I get really hard!
That honey Julia Stern is the leading cam model on Sex Cam Teen, and if you ask me that has a reason. Compared to those cam girls on some other webcam sites she convinces with a complex personality with whom it never gets boring. Try this livesex experience with her!
This teen sex appeal blonde girl Julia Stern is amazing! She is only 19 year old but this fact doesn't stop the cutie from knowing everything about seduction and teasing! I get mouth water and dong hard every time when I am having interactive cam to cam chat with this goddess!
JuliaStern is only 19 years old but it doesn't stop this one of most beautiful of all naked teens I have ever seen to know for sure what every guy thinks and dreams about! She always looks amazing with seductive make-up, sexual clothes and lingerie. I am really fond of live chat with her.

NASHVILLE Tenn.—Graduating high school seniors will be able to attend a community college tuition-free thanks to a program that's expanding to Davidson County.
Gov. Bill Haslam and Nashville Mayor Karl Dean announced the program at a press conference on Monday.
The public-private partnership is an expansion of a larger initiative that provides scholarships to students in 26 other Tennessee counties.
Officials say the program helps students who may not be able to pay tuition but want to further their education at a community or technical institution.
So far, supporters have raised $1 million to launch the program in all 20 Nashville high schools, and the city is proposing up to $750,000 for the program over the next two years. The program also has a component that provides mentors for students.
Haslam said the program ties in with his "Drive to 55″ initiative that's intended to increase the number of Tennesseans with at least a two-year college degree or certificate.
Currently, 32 percent of Tennesseans have a two-year degree or higher, and Haslam's goal is to raise that number to 55 percent by 2025.
The governor said the new education initiative in Nashville will also help attract businesses to the Music City.
"There's a synergy to it," he told reporters after the press conference. "The better graduates we produce, then the more businesses are going to say we want to be here."Semantic Tags: Academic Degrees � Budget & Budgeting � Business � Courts � Degree Attainment � Distance Learning � Education � Public Agencies � Scholarships � Student Publications � Tuition and Fees

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Too Hot for Swamp Gas' started by 108, Jul 26, 2013.
looks like a voter suppression wet dream, now that they are freed from the bondage of the VRA..
Which elements in particular do you find suppress anyone's ability to vote?
The only one in there that even makes me raise my eyebrows is eliminating "straight ticket voting". Is there like a box you can check that says "I'm voting for only this party" in NC, that they want to get rid of? Straight ticket is something you just... do.
We are secretly trying to reduce the democrat voters in this state, hopefully over the next 10 years we can get rid of them entirely, like Texas did.
This was predicable.
Yes, predictably misguided. Where's the voter suppression? Looks more like what all states should do, except I'd make the early voting period 5 days long instead of 10.
It being required of all voters not just dems, so what's unfair about it?
No suppression at all, unless you think proving who you are is suppression. :no:
For 80 years, the corrupt liberals ran NC like their own personal fiefdom, rewarding their friends and themselves, installing an immoral progressive income tax on the hard working private workers, rewarding the bloated state employee posse with 56% of their income pensions and COLAs, redistricting to guarantee liberal dominance, opening early voting to predominately black precients, etc.
Want fairness? Vote Republican.
Aren't the people of NC debating eliminating their state income tax? Do they have one, or am I thinking of another state?
What other reason is there to pass laws like this?
So that people that are NC resident/citizens vote once and only once.
Laws that ensure folks only vote once or request ID isn't the issue.....you can't deny these laws go a lot further and aren't designed with simply ensuring every citizen only votes once.
Point out one part of that voting bill that suppresses voting?
The last is the scariest one....it permits precinct watchers to roam in the effort to intimidate minority voters.
....it permits precinct watchers to roam in the effort to intimidate minority voters.
You mean like the black panthers have been known to do?
What it allows is for snyone to report someone who is gaming the system, cheating, voting too many times.? Why is that bad? How is that intimidation UNLESS of course you want to cheat....
To suppress voters from voting multiple times. No other reason to pass this law.
Hopefully the Repubs will be able to vote twice. I voted several times last election cycle.
The current rate is 6% and then to 7.75% in three tiers.
In 2015, it will be 5.75% for all. A flat tax.
Fairness has been long overdue.
Don't you think it's possible to analyze voting trends of Democrats and Republicans and come to the conclusion that something like early voting or absentee voting benefits one party more than the other? If you think that is possible, then it isn't a great leap to figure how to craft laws that affect one party more than the other. Once that's done, the question is whether a law designed to result in less people voting, regardless of party, is a good law or not.

From Teach.org:
I have one small edit: MAKE LESS, TEACH
The owner of the car pictured below decided not to pay his parking tickets. So, this car sat around collecting tickets until AutoReturn or something similar came along to tow it away, with extreme prejudice.
(Right? Like why pay the SFMTA more than $1000 for a car that's worth less than $1000…)
But before this car was abandoned forever, its owner made sure to let the SFMTA know what he thought about the situation. To wit:
Oh, that's not nice!
Now, let's check the stinger on the arm:
See? "Moving Forward Together" with the SFMTA:

Too bad Angle Grinder Man doesn't reside in the 415…
In closing, Don't Mess With Texas.
I believe Bagdad By The Bay has the latest on our Bacon Bacon saga at Ashbury Market near the corner of Frederick in not-so-scenic Ashbury Heights.
Well this wacky story just went national today on Saturday Night Live – here's Weekend Update co-host Amy Poehler, via Brock Keeling of SFist:
Perhaps not that funny but at least now more people are mocking attorney Ryan Patterson and his unknown client(s).
At least now there's an upside to this flagrant NIMBYism.
So feel free to add this incident…
…to the time this Kramer-esque sign hung off the back of nearby 1965 Page…
…and, for that matter, Kramer's famous run in:
Cosmo Kramer vs. Kenny Rogers Roasters, Inc.
On It Goes…
I don't know, do you make a half-million dollars per year? Well then you just might be richer than a typical San Francisco Bar Pilot.
I'm telling you, it's the best blue-collar job in the world.
Why do they get paid so much? IDK.
Why do they get paid more than double or triple what other American bar pilots get paid? IDK.
Anyway, this fellow may or may not be an SF bar pilot, but he could be:

Oh well.
This car isn't going to be rescued by its owner. This car is going to sit around collecting tickets until AutoReturn or something similar comes along to tow it away, with extreme prejudice.

So the only way to stick it to the Man is to say, "No toasting for me, please."* (And, of course, get it to-go, as young Akit helpfully points out.) Then, you save like 75 cents every time you get lunch.
This situation really isn't the fault of the California State Board of Equalization, but it just happens to be the agency what has the job of interpreting and enforcing some of the cray-cray laws** passed in Sacramento, so what can you do?
*And no cucumbers. Cucumbers are horrible, IMO.
**You're too young to remember the famous snack tax, but I'm not. It didn't last too long.
You see, the Occupiers put their tents on the bocce court grass last year. So that killed the turf.
This was the scene yesterday as the new turf came in:

All that's left to do is clean up the Bradley Manning stickers and then, once again, San Francisco's at-risk Rich White People will have a place to keep busy and stay out of trouble.
You know, there was talk of putting in a playground here, you know, for kids, but RWP didn't like that idea so much.
Oh well.

People's Most Beautiful: Taylor Swift, Tim McGraw, Carrie Underwood Make the List
People magazine's latest issue reveals their picks for the Most Beautiful Celebrities in 2013, and a few of country music's biggest stars made the cut. Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood and Tim McGraw were each recognized for their stunning good looks, but like everyone else, they admit they haven't always felt secure with their own appearance.
"I'm pretty pale," Taylor confesses to People (quote via Lancaster, Pa. radio station WIOV). "In high school, I was insecure and thought it'd be cool to go to a tanning bed. Now, I just let it look the way it looks."
Carrie admits that even though she has graced magazine covers and often appears on best-dressed lists, it took finding her soul mate to accept her true beauty. "I've spent a fair share of money on creams and makeup to help minimize my scars," the songstress reveals. "Then I met [husband] Mike Fisher. He made me feel loved and beautiful … scars and all."
Tim, the husband of beautiful Faith Hill, credits keeping up a rigorous workout regime and abstaining from alcohol with helping him look his best, and still downplays his rugged good looks. "Thank God for country music," he jokes. "That's my reaction, because I sure wouldn't be picked standing on the street corner. It's a good thing I've got a guitar in my hand up under the lights."
Reba McEntire, who at age 58 still turns heads, is also named in a special Beautiful at Every Age feature. Other celebs on the Most Beautiful list include Gwyneth Paltrow, Zooey Deschanel, Jane Fonda, Jennifer Lawrence and Halle Berry.
People's Most Beautiful issue will be on newsstands Friday (April 26). See a sneak peek of the magazine here.

Proposed farm brewery stirs concerns of trucks in Hollow

David Birnbaum submitted his application for a farm brewery on his property at 33 Camps Road. It is now allowed by special permit, after a regulation change approved last month by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

The heart is a large muscular organ which constantly pushes oxygen-rich blood to the brain and extremities and transports oxygen-poor blood from the brain and extremities to the lungs to gain oxygen. Blood comes into the right atrium from the body, moves into the right ventricle and is pushed into the pulmonary arteries in the lungs. After picking up oxygen, the blood travels back to the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium, to the left ventricle and out to the body's tissues through the aorta.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently released the long-awaited proposed rule for implementing the unique device identifier (UDI). The proposed UDI rule has been the subject of much frustration for industry and consumer advocates, given the extended review of the proposed rule required by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) before it would allow the FDA to release it. The UDI, upon full implementation, will allow the FDA to track individual devices in the event of a recall or safety concern.
The proposed rule would require device packaging and labeling to include a UDI in plain-text and in a form that uses automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) technology. Certain categories of devices, such as implantables and those intended for reuse will also need to have the UDI imprinted upon them directly.
The FDA is expected to phase-in implementation of the UDI requirements. The FDA Safety and Innovation Act, anticipated to be signed into law by the President within the next week, requires the FDA to release a final rule within six months of the close of the notice and comment period and to implement the UDI for implantable, life-saving and life-sustaining devices within two years from the release of the final regulations. Public comments are due to the Agency within 120 days from the official date of publication (July 10) and can be submitted at www.regulations.gov.

Does the state of Minnesota need a law aimed at reducing bullying in schools?
You wouldn't feel the need unless you or your kids ever got bullied. It causes permanent harm to that person for the rest of their life. They never ever forget it.

It's been going on forever, the success of some is because they rose above it, dealt with it and overcame. Some use it for motivation their entire live. New laws are a waste. Real parenting is what's needed.

The law will not work it will falsely accuse others. Bullying *****. As any one with ounce of intelligence knows our government can not fix this. This is all because of guy rights agenda they are pushing this. I was bullyed and it sucked but laws will not change it.

UTICA, N.Y. (WKTV) - The Utica City Republican Committee will screen two additional candidates for nomination of the Council at Large seat. In an announcement Saturday, the Committee says they want to fill the ticket with a "dream team."
According to Republican Chairman Joseph Hobika, they Committee will screen Tim Doyle, the city's former City Commissioner of Urban and Economic Development. Additionally, they will screen David Caruso, a local corrections officer.
"We're putting together a qualified team of professionals who will be able to work to positively transform Utica," said Hobika. "This is a critical time in our history and we really need the right people from top to bottom making smart decisions that will stop this economic decline. When we're done, we'll have a slate of candidates starting with Bob Cardillo at the top who have the knowledge and ability to turn things around in Utica," he said.
Hobika also urged any other city residents with a desire to serve and significantly improve the way Utica operates, to contact his office at 315-724-1600.
"We're actively seeking qualified candidates who can help us deliver real progress in Utica and throughout every neighborhood," he said.
Hobika said the committee screening of both Doyle and Caruso, and any other potential candidates, will occur within the next 10 days.

December 15, 2012 - Southern California had its first winter storms of the season during the past two days, which gave the San Gabriel and San Bernardino mountains their first dusting of snow. Of course for us this is just perfect since we can see the snow but it is at least twenty miles away.
University of Redlands students periodically climb this mountain to clear the "R" of brush. The Redlands Airport lies in the valley just beyond the trees.

Jackson Browne at the Paramount, 11/15/12
Eric Gruneisen Jackson Browne last night at the Paramount Theatre.
Very early into his set at the Paramount last night, Jackson Browne thanked the capacity crowd for putting up with the video cameras stationed in the balcony, at the exits and on the stage. A live concert special for AXS TV was being filmed, Browne explained, adding that the band had put together a rare set list for the occasion. "This whole tour we haven't had much of a set list," he said before promising that the show wouldn't feel too stiff or formal as a result. He didn't disappoint -- the two-hour performance boasted a spur-of-the-moment spirit. Browne and his band played obscure B-sides along with well-known hits; several times, he veered from the set list to play requests from vocal audience members. The casual approach made for a completely compelling evening of music.

Eric Gruneisen Sara Watkins last night at the Paramount Theatre.
Browne didn't waste any time in doing away with the normal formalities of a typical Paramount show. Before Sara Watkins, Sean Watkins and Tyler Chester kicked off the opening set, Browne emerged on stage, wearing an easy grin and offering early thanks to the milling crowd for their attendance. He set the mood before he played a note, and it was a genuine and heartfelt tone that would mark the entire evening. That's not to say Browne's performance was sloppy or understudied. The twenty-song performance included selections from all phases of the musician's forty-year career.
Eric Gruneisen Jackson Browne (and all his guitars) at the Paramount Theatre last night.
Switching between piano and a selection of about fifteen acoustic guitars (all arrayed in neat rows on stage), Browne drew support from a revolving cadre of five musicians. Along with Sara and Sean Watkins and Tyler Chester, guitarist Val McCullum and drummer Fritz Lewak added different degrees of instrumentation and contours to classic Browne tunes. At its heart, however, the performance stayed pretty well rooted in Browne's signature sound elements. His tenor voice was as calm and implacable as ever. His approach on the guitar was rooted in alternate tunings and his measured piano style was steady and straightforward. The elements were all there from the first strains of the opening songs, "Black and White," "I'm Alive" and "Call It a Loan," a song written with David Lindley.
Eric Gruneisen Jackson Browne last night at the Paramount Theatre.
It only took Browne a short time to take a break from the set boundaries of the prearranged song list. As he picked up one of his many acoustic guitars and prepared to launch into the song after "Call It a Loan," an audience member called for "Farther On." Browne stopped, brought the guitar back to the stand and took up a seat behind the piano to accommodate the request. "I'm drawn to doing songs we haven't been doing, just to see if I get through them," Browne explained after the spot-on rendition.
A mix of familiar and obscure followed. Browne referenced the recent presidential election before launching into "Looking East," the title song from his 1996 album that demands, "How long have I left my mind to the powers that be? How long will it take to find the higher power moving in me?" Browne broke out a nylon string guitar for "Live Nude Cabaret," a tune that benefited from Sara Watkins' consummate skill on the fiddle.

I have a silly question. If the new SLDR woods are cut through to the inside of the head, does that mean tiny rocks can get inside the head and rattle around? That would drive me effin' crazy.
- The club face controls ball flight (and your swing, too)Posted 7 hours ago

TaylorMade SLDR Fairway Woods and Hybrids
Like TaylorMade's SLDR driver, the company's new SLDR fairway woods and hybrids promise golfers more distance from a lower, more forward center of gravity.
The SLDR fairway woods and hybrids have a new version TaylorMade's "Speed Pocket," which is no longer indented into the front of the sole like previous models. While it's smaller than the Speed Pocket featured on the company's RBZ Stage 2 fairway woods and hybrids, it now slices completely through the sole, creating a gap that is filled with the same polymer the company used in the design of its RocketBladez and SpeedBlade irons.
Mike Ferris, vice president of product marketing for TaylorMade, said that the new Speed Pocket makes the SLDR fairway woods even lower spinning and higher launching than previous models. The 1 mm more forward CG creates an estimated 200-to-300 rpm reduction in spin and a 1-degree increase in launch angle, giving golfers two options to improve their fairway wood and hybrid play. They can use the additional ball speed created from the clubs' lower, more forward center of gravity to hit their fairway woods and hybrids farther, or they can choose to play higher-lofted models, which will allow them to raise their trajectory.
The draw back of moving weight lower and more forward in a club head is that it lowers a club's moment of inertia (MOI), or its resistance to twisting on off-center hits, which decreases a club's forgiveness. But Ferris stressed that the revamped Speed Pocket more than makes up for the loss of forgiveness, because it adds additional spring-like effect that improves the ball speed of shots struck off-center.
SLDR 3 Wood at address
SLDR 3 Hybrid at address
Note: The small alignment line positioned behind TaylorMade's "T" logo will not be added to the retail versions of fairway woods and hybrids.
In 2013, 15 percent of the fairway woods TaylorMade sold were its "high launch" models, which have the shape of a 3 wood or 5 wood, but are designed with more loft to help boost launch angle. In 2014, Ferris said he expects that number to grow to 25 percent of TaylorMade's fairway woods sales, as more golfers realize the benefit of hitting higher-launching, lower-spinning shots.
"The loft of fairway woods has been evolving," Ferris said. "We think it's good to be able to play a 4 wood instead of a 3 wood."
Many tour players, including 2013 U.S. Open champion Justin Rose, have embraced higher-lofted fairway woods, which they are able to hit the same distance as their older, lower-lofted fairway woods but with a higher trajectory. And for golfers such as Rose, having more loft on a fairway wood has a visual benefit as well.
"It gives me more confidence to look down at a fairway wood and see more loft, especially if I know that it's going to fly just as far," Rose said.
The SLDR fairway woods and hybrids have a 3-degree range of adjustability (+/- 1.5 degrees), which is adjustable in 0.5-degree increments. They are made to be "visually square" at address, which means that in the neutral setting they will have a face angle that measures 2 degrees open.
The fairway woods are smaller in size than their predecessor, TaylorMade's RBZ Stage 2 Tour, with the SLDR 3 wood measuring 20 cubic centimeters smaller (155cc versus 175cc), while the hybrids are about the same size as last year's models. The combination of the shallower fairway wood heads and slightly shorter shaft lengths (both the fairway woods and hybrids are 0.25 inches shorter than TaylorMade's RBZ Stage 2 Tour models) should make the clubs more playable for the majority of golfers.
The SLDR fairway woods and hybrids will be available starting Nov. 15. The fairway woods will sell for $249 ($349 with TaylorMade's TP shafts), and the hybrids will cost $219 ($289 with a TP shaft).

If these perform as good as the driver I may have to get one of these too. Recently got the SLDR driver in 10.5 with the Speeder 57g stiff shaft. WOW! Long and straight. Even drives I didn't think I'd hit very well get out there. I hit one low off the face on our par 5 18th and was amazed to see it had gone past 300 yards. I'd say I've gained at least 15 yards on my Nike VRS driver
TP will be back next year for TMade. New TP ball and TP forged blades out soon. RBZ stage 2 replacement also on the way. The SLDR woods look good but hang around for the new product……
Another failure…face is about all that's going for it….insider info from a tm rep/pro…..waste
Already reduced price at Dick's
Oh Boy!!!! More distance promised by TaylorMade.
Since I've upgraded to their latest, longest club faithfully for the last four years, I consistently drive 400 yards within 5 yards of the center of the fairway and hit my fairways 350 and hybids 300. I routinely shoot in the low 50′s since I never have more than a wedge to any par 4 or 5.
I CANNOT WAIT to add 15% more distance. Even if I get worse dispersion. I'll be putting for more eagles and probably start shooting in the high 40′s.
When is the FTC going to put a stop to manufacturers' BS claims?
Yeah man I so want the SLDR 3 wood!
How are you supposed to get the dirt out from the inside, if the pocket is cut-through?
Its filled with a polymer so no dirt can get in
The shallow face looks a lot like an Titleist F2 wood. If its just as good and longer, I will buy it!!
Looks nice. Shorter shafts and charcoal grey color should make the purists happy. As long as it performs great that is all that matters to me. I look forward to trying it out.
Major problem I have with the SLDR line of clubs (got the driver) is the rather soft nameplate. Got a ding on it within one round. At the local pro shop the nameplate was already coming off on the demo driver, so I can only imagine that it will come off in a hurry on the woods and hybrids.
Our Club has a demo driver… The screw that holds the sliding piece in place had the threads stripped the first day. Cheaply done
If you want SWAG get a Kick-X SRT hybrid.
I hear they have higher bounce options coming out for DIGR and DRVR swings out there…..Rumor is for an extra $250 in an underground garage Vokey will come and custom grind a fairway wood or hybrid for your needs! HAHAHA
The most important thing for me is lookin' fresh on the course. I want a bag full o' swag. And, these T-Made SLDR's aren't fresh, and won't help me look good. These are about the whackest clubs Ive seen TM make in a long minute.
Remember, TM, we want SWAG, not the WACKNESS.
Don't bet on it. They'll definitely have them marked down in time for Christmas shopping.
Release date Nov. 15th….. half price by May 2014?
Does it come with a toaster oven?
SLDR is just a name, doesn't mean there are sliders on the woods. Guess it's just replacing the RBZs. Wonder what the R1 replacement will look like.
sldr is the new r1. rbz 2 was just released. the tour versions should be available later this year.
where is the sldr weight aspect?
Kinda funny they say the increased ball speed more than makes up for lower MOI i.e. forgiveness. So your ball will fly farther offline on a miss hit. Hmmmm. That's better than shorter and in play? Guess I don't follow that "logic".
On the other hand, it may not be that far off line. Gotta try it.
Lol I thought the same thing. "Instead if missing the fairway by a few yards, you can now miss DEEP into the woods!"
Pretty sure a low MOI head that helps by hitting it further offline is why every golfer needs.
BUT! It creates higher launch and lower spin and gives extra yards, so it has to be good.
I think you are all confused between MOI and forgiveness…MOI is so 2000 anyway!
When will ladies clubs be available in SA?
Any word on whether or not Taylormade is going to continue its tradition of Tour and TP models? This one could be going in the bag..
Yes they have TP models for both. The TP version of the Fwy wood is $100 more that the standard version.
Do you know what the difference is between the regular and TP model is?
The TP is has exactly the same head. 460cc. The only difference is the stock shaft is comes with. The SLDR comes with a Fujikura Speeder 57g shaft while the TP comes with a Fujikura Motore Speeder 63g shaft. So its just a shaft upgrade
Thats for the driver by the way, not the fairway woods
Date of release?
Wow read the whole article and missed that it already said November 15. Oops

This iReport is part of an assignment:
Take a stand to end slavery
My sister can be evasive and she does not mention anything that she herself has done nor any of the girls that she and I were in care with. My sister will only mention things that the boys did and also some members of staff.
Police in an investigation into abuses at these homes did not conduct a thorough investigation and they were criticised by a panel of Judges at a Tribunal on the 3rd of May 2012 when they presented their meagre results.
The Police claimed that they had done a thorough investigation and that they could not locate any witness' that were in care with me.
They did question my sister though and as you can hear she knows a lot. The Police claimed only to have found Helen Crawford. Although I am allowed copies of all statements the CICA has not provided me with Helen Crawford's statement whom they interviewed over the phone for an amazing few minutes.
How long did it take me to get what I needed in each of these conversations with my sister.
I wonder if Helen or her relatives are working in the public services i.e. the Police, Customs a Council Authority? It would not surprise me if there was a connection.
Here is an recent email from James Moir concerning his time in care and knowledge of the evnts which took place.

Did Gap Strike a Deal with the Devil Ben Silverman?
Did Gap Strike a Deal with the
Devil Ben Silverman?
You noticed those semi-less-annoying-than-last-year's Holiday Gap ads that are all around the place? Sure, nothing can beat Amy Poehler and her comedy hubby Will Arnett wrapped around a scarf together, but they definitely laid it on thick with the jokesters. There are a couple sincere pics, like Jon Hamm and Jennifer Westfeldt, and Jason Bateman with his daughter Francesca Nora, but the rest are all SNL cast members, Rainn Wilson, and Selma Blair.
Wait a minute. Aren't those all NBC prime-time comedies? Luckily, Jeff Bercovici is getting to the bottom of the case and finding out who's dick Ben Silverman had to suck to get all his stars plastered around Manhattan wearing flannel and argyle.
Alas, none of my suppositions proved correct. "Total coincidence!" says Trey Laird, president and executive creative director of Laird + Partners, Gap's ad agency, when asked about the profusion of peacock personnel. "I just cast who I liked. Nothing to do with NBC."
Hmm, that answer may satisfy Berovici, but not us. It's just too convienent for both sides that the ads would feature the money-makers like the SNL cast along with the struggling Kath and Kim, which NBC would have loved to get more exposure on. And you can't tell us there is someone out there who likes Kath and Kim.
Ben Silverman's team of "ruthless" Private Investigators???these guys make Anthony Pellicano look like Mother Teresa???they got so much dirt on Jeff Zucker that Ben has "El Baldie" Zucker by the balls. Zucker is now Ben's bitch???if Governor Elliot Spitzer was "client number 9" as per that whore house he frequented???well Zucker was "client 1 thru 6"???all paid on General Electric's dime???.and thats just the tip of the iceberg???so Ben stays???Zucker stays???that hot sexy shicksa Katherine Pope goes, Teri "the leather face jew spinster" Weinberg stays. If this crap was all based on merit???Bonnie Hammer would be running NBC Universal. PS- Ben thought the Rosie Variety Show was a sure fire hit…that's why he greenlit the show…got shitcanned after one airing.
bastards, corporate whores, a soul for the GAP!

Patching with Drush Make
Patching software is a common practice in open source software that enables developers to fix bugs and implement features within their projects, independent of the upstream software's development cycle. The offset of this approach is that it can become cumbersome to maintain and re-apply patches as the upstream software continues to fix bugs, implement features and fix security vulnerabilities.
With Drupal, patches can be better managed with an automated tool called Drush Make. This tool allows you to define a list of patched upstream (contrib) software and can aid the automated... More

Martha Jane Murray: Working on Solutions to Climate Change
by Bill Paddack
Posted 3/29/2010 12:00 am
Updated 2 years ago
Artist. Architect. Designer. Teacher. Environmentalist. Wife. Mother. Advocate. Business leader. Communicator. Activist. Mentor.
Martha Jane Murray has worn - and continues to wear - a number of hats throughout her career, and, in each phase, she has made it a priority to shake things up a little, to ask, "What if?"
Perhaps her former boss and colleague at The Wilcox Group, Steve Kinzler, who is now president and COO of Polk Stanley Wilcox Architects in Little Rock, puts it best when he simply says, "She gets involved. She doesn't just take other people's information; she puts it to the test. That gives her a lot of clout that she really does walk the talk."
That walk and that talk have certainly taken her down interesting paths through the years, from working as an architect to teaching architecture at Tulane University to her current position with the William J. Clinton Foundation Climate Initiative as the Arkansas liaison and program manager with the Arkansas governor's office.
Along the way, she became the first LEED-accredited professional in Arkansas, was the founding chair of the U.S. Green Building Council's Arkansas Chapter and was one of five national core committee members who organized the national U.S. GBC GreenBuild 2005 response for the Katrina sustainable rebuilding effort.
"What I am doing is not about me," Murray said. "Problem solving is most effective when you bring motivated, passionate and bright people together in an integrated team process. I love meeting people and finding out what makes them tick, then connecting them to other like-minded groups where I believe they can make a contribution.
"Over the last 10 years since I became focused on energy and environmental design, I have made friends all over the United States that have inspired and motivated me to do my part for environmental justice in the built environment. It is pure joy to encounter soul mates and to work together to improve the lives of people and the planet. Many of these mentors reside here in Arkansas and have been soldiering on since the '70s."
Stephanie S. Streett, executive director of the Clinton Foundation, said Murray's work with the Clinton Climate Initiative in Arkansas "is an exciting addition" to the work of the foundation.
"Martha Jane brings a wealth of experience from her work in New Orleans for the Clinton Climate Initiative to this work in Arkansas," Streett said. "Under Martha Jane's leadership, the foundation's climate initiative is working to assist the state in its efforts to retrofit state-owned buildings with the goal of reducing carbon emissions and energy costs.
"Through the initiative's Home Energy Assistance Loan [HEAL] project, Martha Jane and her team assist businesses in retrofitting their facilities to realize energy savings and then use some of those savings to assist the employees of these companies to make energy-saving improvements in their own homes," Streett said. "We are proud that the Clinton Foundation has this unique opportunity to bring some of the resources of one of our major global initiatives, the Clinton Climate Initiative, here to Arkansas."
Marc Harrison, a policy adviser to Gov. Mike Beebe, said, "She's been a great resource to bounce ideas off of, to bring in her expertise in both her previous work with the restoration of New Orleans post-Katrina as well as work that she's done with energy-efficient buildings and beyond that her program of HEAL. ... She truly gives. It's not for herself, but for others that need it. We've had a great working relationship. We're excited about the future and some of the projects that she's doing. She's a wonderful resource. It's amazing to me that she can switch gears so quickly; she can be talking buildings one moment and switch over to something totally different the next and never miss a beat."
Murray said she had found that "the integrated design process, promoted by green building design, is equally effective and rewarding" in program design.
"Once I conceived the HEAL program ... I began to engage many of my colleagues to help me expand this vision," she said. "It has been, and continues to be, a collaborative process and everyone on our team has an opportunity to be creative and offer alternative solutions to achieve our goals of energy efficiency, greenhouse gas emissions reductions and job creation, particularly for lower income working families. CCI was created to advance solutions to the core issues driving climate change. The HEAL pilot program specifically is about demonstrating a scalable and replicable energy benefit program offered through places of business."
'She Gets Things Done'
Murray's visions and goals and her ability to accomplish them don't go unnoticed.
"Not only is Martha Jane smart, talented and passionate, she gets things done," state Rep. Kathy Webb of Little Rock said. "She thinks 'outside the box' and asks 'how can we do this?' rather than 'we can't do this.' I was lucky to see some of the work she has done in the Ninth Ward in New Orleans and to work with her on the Sustainable Building Design & Practices Task Force, as well as on a number of issues during the last session of the Legislature. ... When you want something done, she is the person I go to."
Murray and her husband, Neil Munro, are co-owners of NMF Inc. a shoe manufacturing business located in Wynne. They live in Hot Springs with their two children, Sarah and Evan.
"What continues to drive me," she said, "is the belief that we can't do enough fast enough to avert the consequences of climate change for our children and future generations. My goal is to open people's minds to other possibilities for solving some of our most serious challenges: energy independence and national security, economic development and, most importantly, connecting us to each other and the planet. If I can persevere this year, I hope to demonstrate through CCI the employer-assisted energy-benefit program as an effective, scalable financing tool for residential energy-efficiency retrofits.
"I have a great team," she said, "and I love working with young people. They're very inspiring and energizing. This whole thing for me is a faith journey. It's very much a part of my spiritual being. It's a calling.
"Ultimately, I believe that Scripture 'to whom much is given much is required,' and I have been very fortunate in this life to have been blessed with wonderful parents, family and friends that have nurtured and believed in me. My work is an attempt to answer to that love. I can never do enough to pay it all back."

ATLANTA (NBC News) - There's an all-points bulletin and amber alert in suburban Atlanta after a home invasion in the middle of the night turned into a kidnapping of a 14 year old girl.
Police in Clayton County Georgia are desperately searching for 14-year-old Ayvani Hope Perez.
She's a victim, they say, of a home invasion that turned into a kidnapping.
"We do believe the young lady is in harm's way. We are actively and diligently investigating this situation to make sure she is returned safely," said Clayton County Police Lieutenant Marc Richards.
Two home invaders burst into the suburban Atlanta home of the 14 year old shortly after two Tuesday morning.
Police say they demanded money and jewelry from the girl's mother.
When she didn't deliver, they shot the dog and kidnapped the teen girl.
"They possibly fled in a vehicle perhaps a gray Chevy impala or a gray or dark blue Dodge," Richards said.
Ayvani Hope Perez is 4 feet, 9 inches tall and 93 pounds.
She was still in her pajamas when abducted.
"I've prayed for the safe return of this child because it shouldn't happen," said a neighbor.
Police say the two men who kidnapped Ayvani are believed to be armed and definitely dangerous.
