Kobe Bryant is one the NBA's biggest talents. He is a guard for the Los Angeles Lakers and played a huge role in the Lakers' 2000, 2001 and 2002 NBA Championships. He was also the league's leading scorer in the 2005-06 and 2006-07 seasons, as well as the MVP in 2006-07. Usually I mention that a star athlete needs a championship to really be accomplished. Well, Kobe Bryant has three, and that's good enough for us. He was the leading scorer for several consecutive years and named the MVP of the 2006-07 season. He also took home gold with Team Canada during the 2008 summer olypics in Beijing. Unfortunately for Kobe Bryant, he was accused of raping a 19-year-old hotel employee in Eagle, Colorado. Kobe will always be the best basketball player ever in my eyes and I thought this book was a good biography on the life of Kobe Bryant.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

Norwegian interests in the Arctic and Antarctic, as well as national and international commitments, means that we have a particular responsibility to promote knowledge that is necessary to exercise a sound management and business activity in the polar regions.
Arctic research is demanding. Project leaders have to stay updated on on going research activity while planning for new field activities. The planning phase requires hours of browsing journals, submission of formal documents and booking of facilities. If you are conducting research in Svalbard, the improved version of the RiS Portal (Research in Svalbard) has now made your work a lot easier.
The Research Council of Norway just received applications to two calls. 18 applications were submitted to the call dedicated to enhance cooperation between Norwegian and Russian researchers in Svalbard in 2015-2017. 15 applications were received to Svalbard Strategic Grant for international workshops and cooperation projects in 2015.
The Research Council of Norway has issued a call for proposals for activities to promote research cooperation between Norwegian and Russian researchers in Svalbard. The application deadline is 26 November 2014. A survey shows that research groups find this type of funding helps to strengthen cooperation.

Whew! Week one is done and in the record books. And what did we all learn? We learned that it's a damn shame that you can't vote someone OFF this show instead of voting to keep someone on. We learned that bitchface never goes out of style. We learned that while people will tune in to see Pam shake her boobies, they won't vote to keep them around for another week. And we learned that America loves the space program, even if we don't really want to pay for it anymore. So let's move on to week two and learn some all new lessons this week, shall we? LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!
I think the opening stair walk segment is boring as hell and a waste of time, but it does have the advantage of giving us a sneak preview of the weird outfits people are wearing. You don't get to look very long. Just enough time to go, "What the...what?" and then you have to wait until the couple comes out to perform to get the full deal. Like for example Chelsie is wearing some sort of black Cleopatra style wig and I think her blonde hair is sticking out underneath it or maybe that's intentional but we won't know! Until she comes out to dance for real! Also do you ever notice that they put Kate and Pamela last? It's because those are the two that everyone is tuning in to see. I have friends who used to make fun of me for watching this show and this season, they are watching for those two.
Remember last week when Len told the couples to tell a story through their dance? So now they have to do that. Aren't they kind of always supposed to be telling a story through their dance? In a clip package, each couple gives a little preview of their story, but let's save it for the actual dance, okay?
To show us what the judges will be looking for, some of the pros who aren't on this season (I recognize Jonathan, Dmitri, and Lacey right off the top) came out and perform the waltz, the paso doble, and the quickstep. I appreciate the effort and all, but this doesn't really tell me what the judges are looking for. It would be more useful if the judges (well, really just Len) did a voiceover explaining what we were looking at. Like in the waltz, it should be smooth and in the paso, they should be assertive or whatever. Anyway, it's nice to see those guys getting some work.
Evan is the first to dance tonight. In his clip package, he wants Anna to talk in a Russian accent. Is he making fun of Johnny Weir? Anyway, they have the quickstep this week. And Evan almost has a sense of humor! It's very deadpan, but it's there. Their story is that they're married and his wife is late. Wow. What a thriller. Can I buy the movie rights? They start out with some business where Evan is pacing around and Len is going to hate that. But the dance itself is really, really good. Evan is tall and lanky, which is perfect for the quickstep. Very Jimmy Stewart in It's a Wonderful Life. And he's graceful! And he keeps up with the fast footwork; so often in this dance, it seems like the pro is just dragging the star along, but Evan is leading. I don't really get the story other than that business at the beginning, but Evan performed it as well as danced it, so we'll see what the judges think.
Len liked the story and says it cheered him up, but advises Evan to work on his feet a bit. Bruno liked that Evan "dumped" Anna at the end (on the floor) and tells Evan that he agrees about the foot issue. Carrie Ann calls it twinkling and energetic, which is a great description. Backstage, Evan admits that he has a couple of broken toes, but you really couldn't tell. Scores: Carrie Ann 9, Len 8, and Bruno 9.
Let's get Buzz's routine over with. Although he is doing the waltz this week, and if there were any dance he might do well with, this is it. I mean, seriously. Can you imagine him doing the quickstep? Or the paso doble? I'm almost starting to believe that the fix is in with Buzz because he really did get the one dance this week that he can reasonably do. Anyway, their story is that Buzz is a returning war hero and Ashly is his daughter. Glad they didn't pretend that she's his sweetheart because...gross. In rehearsals, Ashly tells Buzz that he's overthinking it and he needs to just move to the music, but he doesn't get that, because he's basically an engineer and thinks like one. So how does the final product come out? Well, it's better than either routine last week. He mostly remembers the steps and his stiff posture is actually an asset. The thing is, it's not just that he's old, and his body isn't flexible. It's also that he has no musicality or sense of rhythm. You can see him thinking through the steps and it's robotic -- "Extend left arm for two beats and then step forward with right foot at a 45 degree angle" or whatever, instead of feeling the emotion of the music. That said, I think that was probably the best routine Buzz will do on this show.
Bruno says that there were "problems with the movement" but Buzz looked regal. Carrie Ann thought the story was great even if the dancing wasn't great. Len liked the innocent charm but they're judging the dancing, and it was too simple and underperformed. The audience boos. Really, audience? You thought that was good? Simmer down. Scores: Carrie Ann 5, Len 4, and Bruno 4. Hmm. I thought it was a little bit better than that. Like a few points better.
Jake seems to have powder all over the lapels of his suit. What's up with that? Is it part of his costume or a mistake? They have the quickstep and Chelsie decides that Jake will be an archeologist and she's going to be Cleopatra. In rehearsal, they get frustrated with each other and Jake has to leave and get a hold of himself. He thinks Chelsie is being disrespectful. Yes, how dare she tell him what to do! Was he like this when he was The Bachelor? He kind of comes off as a dick with control and anger issues. So how's their dance? Surprisingly, it's not bad. Jake keeps up well with the footwork and what's more impressive to me is that he acts out his role well, seeming surprised when Chelsie/Cleopatra emerges etc. I mean, it's corny, but have you seen this show? There's a lot of faux-Egyptian moves and I'm not sure how traditional Len will like that, but it's entertaining, at least.
Carrie Ann points out that Jake's legs were soft. Len advises Jake to straighten his legs sometimes, but adds that it was entertaining with high production values. Bruno loved the story, but the dancing technique could have been a bit better. Backstage, Brooke once again keeps the mike on them too long during the interview and it's awkward. Scores: Carrie Ann 7, Len 7, and Bruno 7.
Niecy and Louis have decided to tell the story of a cross-racial couple in the '60s who weren't allowed to be together due to the laws of the time. Niecy really gets into the emotion of not being able to be with the one you love due to laws or social norms and Louis cries too. Then he admits, "I'm still in that boat." Did he just come out on the show? Have they admitted before that he's gay? That's awesome. I'm totally voting for them now. There's a lot of coded language in this clip package. So how is their actual waltz? Niecy bungles a few of the steps, but she's graceful throughout and doesn't drop the character. The choreography is really beautiful, and at the end Niecy and Louis are both clearly very touched.
Len loved that they created a story just through acting with no props, and they nailed the emotion, but not the technique. Bruno thought it was acted well, but Niecy needs to work on her feet. Carrie Ann didn't get the ending of their dance, but she's glad they chose the story they did. As Carrie Ann speaks, a single tear drops down Niecy's face. OSCAR! Backstage, Niecy admits that she stumbled in the dance because she's not used to being so emotionally vulnerable in front of people. Louis concludes, "Everybody should be able to get married!" I totally agree but I'm kind of surprised that the producers let them get so political. Good for them, especially given how many people affected by the ban on gay marriage probably work on the show.

With a few discarded mailing tubes, construction paper, and Fiskars Squeeze Punches you can craft these characters in under 20 minutes.
The AdvantEdge™ Punch System features slide-and-lock technology that makes punching perfectly aligned borders easier than ever.
When we began planning how we would paint wood birdhouses, I worried he would be disappointed with his work when we were finished. With Fiskars stamps and a solvent based permanent stamping ink we were able to create simple images, akin to a coloring book, that he was easily able to fill in with a small paintbrush. The end result? Little "paintings" that he was excited about!
Begin with unfinished wooden birdhouses.
Have the child begin painting!
My son wanted a circle with a frame around it on the back of his first birdhouse. We punched circles from paper using the Fiskars Round and Round Squeeze punches to create stencils and drew them directly onto the wood with a pencil.
After the base of the birdhouse was painted to my son's satisfaction, we began stamping. We used the Fiskars Outdoor Fun and Flower Garden Repositionable Stamps.
If your birdhouse will be displayed outdoors, be sure to use a permanent stamping ink. If you're trying to stamp in an area that is too small to lie the acrylic block flat, adhere the stamp to the edge of the block rather than the flat surface.
Continue stamping and painting in the open areas of the images until the child is content.
Here is how the back of the house with the circle stencils turned out.
And here are the fronts of all the houses.
We even stamped, stenciled, and painted on the roofs.
When we were finished, I had a boy who was very pleased with his paintings!
Finished birdhouses can be attached to a wooden fence using screws and a power drill.

Keeping track of ex-'s ?
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 01-12-2009 - 3:57pm
Hey there,
how many of you have links to ex-boyfriends or ex-girlfriends on facebook or myspace profiles? And if so, does your wife/husband know about them?
On my Facebook profile, I am linked to my wife but also to two ex-girlfriends who I hadn't been in contact with for years till I saw them on the site. I'm sure my wife recognized at least one of them, but hasn't said anything.
Has this caused any friction with anyone else ?
Both of my ex-'s are now married with kids, though one of them has started posting pictures of herself from her recent family vacation. Certainly brings back good memories of what's underneath that bikini top ;-)
|Mon, 01-12-2009 - 4:58pm
I don't use facebook or myspace. i was on myspace a few years ago but now i have it blocked on all the computers so it can't be accessed at all. I do sometimes talk to an ex bf, but he was my Dh's best friend and room mate too so they talk more than me.
I guess my feeling is that contact with an ex is like most other things in marriage. If it's something that is a secret from your spouse because it will hurt them or cause arguments or friction, then it's probably a bad idea.
What if she told you it made her feel uncomfortable or hurt her feelings that you are in contact with either of these women? Would you delete them and end contact?
|Mon, 01-12-2009 - 5:09pm
If it was making my wife uncomfortable then yes, I probably would delete them; but its out in the open as it is, on FB my wife can see if I've been in contact with anyone or sent them a message. I'm not trying to keep it hidden.
btw, she also has a couple of her ex-boyfriends in her list, but they live overseas now so there's unlikely to be any physical contact, though I can see that she has emailed them a couple of times.
That said, if my ex- keeps posting more of her busty bikini pics, I may get some stern glances !!
|Mon, 01-12-2009 - 9:49pm
Hello jmacn, welcome to SMS, I m MEME one of the CLs here along with Nenu!
The only "exs" on my FB or myspace are from high school almost 30yrs ago! so who cares! as it is my DH is soo much better than them anyways! Plus my DH is on both myspace and FB we are each others 'friends' on them so I can see his boards and he can see mine. nothing hiden but nothing to hide either! After 29yrs together...Im not worried and neither is him.
I agree with LM...if its hiden then its bad. if its out in the open and she/he knows. then that is good.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Compost program given $300K
THE province will spend $300,000 over two years to support Brandon's composting program, Premier Greg Selinger said in Brandon Friday.
The money will go toward the expansion of Brandon's automated organic waste collection system to 6,000 households.
It's expected to divert an additional 2,600 tonnes of organic waste from the Eastview Landfill every year, extending the estimated life of the landfill by six years to 2048.
More information on Brandon's program is available at www.brandon.ca/departments/operations/sanitation/composting .

Iraqi aims to write world's longest copy of Quran
Al Kharsan says the scroll is to be between 5,500 and 6,000 metres long, or 3.4 and 3.7 miles
- Image Credit: AFP
- Iraqi calligrapher Hussain Al Kharsan writes verses from the Quran. Kharsan hopes to break a new Guinness record by writing the world's longest copy of the Quran.
Najaf, Iraq: Hussain Al Kharsan kneels, bent over a giant sheet of paper, laboriously writing the words of Islam's holy book, the Quran, in beautiful Arabic script with a traditional wood and feather pen.
The 25-year-old Iraqi aims to take an unusual path to fame: writing the longest copy of the Quran in the world. Al Kharsan says the scroll is to be between 5,500 and 6,000 metres long, or 3.4 and 3.7 miles.
His aim, he says, is to set a Guinness World Record.
The copy of the Quran was supposed to be shown this year, when Najaf was to be the Islamic Capital of Culture, but that project has been postponed indefinitely amid serial delays and allegations of corruption.
It has not however stopped Al Kharsan, who graduated from Baghdad University's college of fine arts, from continuing his work inside a religious school in Najaf, despite pains in his neck and back from long hours of carefully writing out one verse after another.
"At the beginning, the agreement was to finish the work in six months, on the basis of writing three pages out of 503 pages of the Quran every day," Al Kharsan said.
"I succeeded at the beginning and worked for 16 hours a day for more than two weeks until I started suffering pains," he said.
"The doctor asked me to stop working for about a month but I refused and told him that I work with the blessings of the Quran. Now I take pain-killing pills and work for five hours a day, which means I need about a year to finish."
Al Kharsan, who began participating in Arabic calligraphy competitions when he was just nine years old, writes on four pieces of white paper that are each 1,500 metres long.
He has succeeded in copying 13 pages of the Quran since he started his work about a month ago.
Arabic calligraphy is one of the most prominent forms of Arab and Islamic art.
"We are the people of Arabic calligraphy," said Shaikh Ali Merza, the principal of the school where Al Kharsan is working on the Quran.
"Kufi calligraphy [named after Najaf's twin city of Kufa] is well known, and when we want to do calligraphy, it is not something new for us because we practised this kind of art historically," Merza said.
He added that Al Kharsan's work will be displayed in Najaf, even if the Capital of Islamic Culture project does not go ahead.
Guinness World Records does not have any entries for the longest Quran, but the largest printed copy measures two metres (6.5 feet) high and 1.52 metres (4 feet, 11 inches) wide, and was unveiled in Russia last November.
The smallest copy, printed in Cairo in 1982 and owned by a Pakistani man, is 1.7 by 1.3 centimetres (0.66 by 0.5 of an inch), but still 571 pages long.
The biggest book in the world, meanwhile, measures five by 8.06 metres (16.4 by 26.44 feet) and weighs some 1,500 kilogrammes (3,306 pounds). It is on the life and achievements of the Prophet Mohammad [PBUH], and was unveiled in Dubai in February.
"It is very nice to do work that is related to the Quran or [holy] shrines," Al Kharsan said. "This is a blessed work. But at the same time, my name will be part of history, because we compete on an international level."
"I do not take any salary for my work, although there is an agreement that I get a percentage of the budget of the project, which is about 100 million dinars ($83,300)."
"I feel proud of what I am accomplishing, and all I want is to leave my mark."

Hot. One word to describe the atmosphere of the Gexa Energy Pavilion last night in Dallas. Before Matchbox Twenty and the Goo Goo Dolls, Kate Earl was the first to take the stage.
I'm at a loss and need some help! After listening to Matchbox Twenty's latest song called 'Our Song', I'm left feeling like I've heard this song before but I can't place it. It reminds me of a song from the 80's (especially the beginning) but I can't place it.

My disdain of the 'Scary Movie' franchise came early. I distinctly recall seeing the 'Scary Movie 2' poster, which featured Kathleen Robertson wearing a t-shirt that says "I See Dead People." This isn't a joke. It's just a reference. It isn't clever, it isn't witty - it's just saying a thing from another movie. It's not funny.
Almost 10 years later, 'Scary Movie 5' still suffers from this debilitating problem. There is absolutely nothing funny about going 'Inception'-style into Christian Grey's S&M room and having Mike Tyson show up. Yet, if you are somehow able to ignore the lowest common denominator pop culture appearances (I hesitate to even call them jokes) there are a great number of truly amusing gags and examples of rapid fire dialogue zings. Put bluntly: when the film is freed from the shackles of its referencing mandate, there's some good, dopey humor in here. Much to my surprise, I laughed out loud a good half-dozen times.

I don't do hair but I do nails and work in a beauty salon!┬Ā I am not on my feet as much so I don't have to deal with as much as you but with my last pregnancy I did have a major prob with carpal tunnel and have noticed it acting up a lil already.┬Ā My back does hurt close to the end of my day!┬Ā I cut back to 3 days a week after I had DS...but someweeks I put as many as 30 to 32 hours in...some weeks not that much but it's nice to get to be home 4 days with him!┬Ā I work tues wed and thurs mainly...and an occasional fri!┬Ā Goodluck and I just started telling most of my clients about 2 weeks ago after my 1st appt..still haven't told all yet tho!
Home & it's been so great and I only work 2 days a week. I'm not doing that again! Make sure your hydrated. I got dizzy a lot and started having vision problems & had to be induced bc I got preclampsia. If I was you I would cut back once you start to get bigger if you don't feel good. But hopefully you will have a better experience I just had a not so good experience.
I'm currently doing my teacher's program, so I don't really work in the field right now, but doing all the demos and lecturing in class is KILLER on my feet. I haven't noticed a big change in my wrists, but my hands do cramp much easier now. Hand cramps in the middle of demoing a haircut, not the best. lol

I don't actually belong to this group, i'm due in january, don't hate me! Haha. But I work full time in a salon doing hair too. I haven't cut back any hours yet, but I sometimes do ask the receptionists to block out a little extra time for my appointments so if I need to take a "bathroom break" or get some water (more like going into the backroom to stretch and melt down a little...) then I don't run behind. I know in the industry they drill into us time=money, so that part sucks. I think as I get bigger i'll cut down my hours as needed. I already have horrible tennis elbow and bad shoulders from round brushing all those heads of hair. The advice I got from girls at my salon told me to invest in a good pair of shoes, take breaks when needed and pray your client is understanding, and try not to schedule back to back to back colors/foils/perms. I have told my long time/standing appt. clients already that i'm pregnant, and they kind of know what to expect, and i'm going to try to get them on a good schedule when it gets closer so I can squeeze most in before I pop.┬ĀA friend I work with worked in the salon until the day her water broke in the middle of a full highlight! I will probably work up until the week before my due date if I feel well enough, and I plan to take an extended maternity leave, which will obviously not be paid since i'm in an independent salon :(┬ĀDo you work with someone that could be your 'back up' if you miss a day or have to take off early? It sucks to give away clients but it is what it is!

Expecting baby #1 January 21st, 2012!
Im due in December, I am a licensed cosmetologist. Just graduated from Paul Mitchell the School. But Ive been doing hair for years and have worked in salons unlicensed & for cosmetique companys in retail stores. Im not working right now, I didnt want to accept a position knowing I was preggo because of the long hours and having to be on your feet all day..I tip my hat off to you its not easy working a job like that preggo...Good luck !┬Ā
I'm a hairdresser and I actually quit the salon to do hair at home before I knew I was pregnant.Tons of girls got pregnant when we were in cosmo school together and missed alot of hrs due to m/s and other preg related issues. We did have a few go into labor as well.I guess it all┬Ā depends on how you can deal with it. Good luck to you! I don't think I would be able to do the salon while pregnant and I can control the fumes at home or decide which services not to perform. You cant control if the stylist next to you does a stinky perm. I would probably hurl right there!

Movoto, a real estate website, has published a list of the ten best places to live in Missouri and they are all St. Louis suburbs. I'm surprised at this because national lists of the best places for families often has Columbia on them, but whatever.
Number one from Movoto is Glendale, a town the Riverfront Times calls, "the city so small and quaint it's more of a Webster Groves suburb than a St. Louis suburb -- tops the list with high scores in employment and high school diploma attainment." Interestingly, our grandson went to preschool in Glendale and it never occurred to me that this could be a sought after place to live.
The criteria used: The top 10 cities stood out from the rest for a variety of reasons, but they all had some things in common: high median income, low crime, great high school diploma rates, low unemployment, and high home values/rent prices, an indicator of desirability.
So of course Clayton and Ladue are on the list as is Town and Country and Chesterfield. The photo accompanying Clayton's blurb is of the annual Hillcrest neighborhood 4th of July parade which we always participate in since the neighborhood abutts the seminary.

Back in June stories appeared announcing the future opening of The Fresh Market grocery store in the old and long abandoned Schnucks building at Clayton and Hanley. Whatever happened with this? Nothing seems to be moving at that location except brown paper covering the windows. There has been no other talk about this company's plans.
I'd really love to see The Fresh Market come to town.
Ok, a little research and here is the latest. The company has hired an engineering firm to study traffic impact. But, Clayton officials said they have not received any plans for the proposed development. So who knows.

Maryland School on Maryland Ave east of Hanley in Clayton was closed in 1980 and used occasionally for educational groups which needed temporary classroom space. But for the most part, the school has sat empty for 33 years. There have been multiple offers for the building and grounds, one of which is a proposal to the Clayton School Board from a developer who wants to turn the property into high density luxury condos and at a meeting the other night nearby neighbors came to protest. Many of the neighbors are part of a group called Keep Clayton Green which has a goal of preserving green space in their neighborhood. However...
"They wanted to preserve green space in their quiet neighborhood of single-family homes. They and others tend a community garden on the school property and said they hoped for more green space in the already tree-filled neighborhood, not less."
What this means is the surrounding neighbors have been using the property for their own purposes, community gardens, and seem to have planned for more private usage. This opposition goes beyond the usual unhappiness with the possibility of more traffic and fewer trees when development is proposed. They want to keep using property which is not theirs.
Not sure this is the best argument.

Every year another local municipality takes up the issue of whether or not to allow residents to keep chickens in their yards. Most end up coming up with an ordinance setting out guidelines, but otherwise agreeing to it. In the Rockford Illinois area officials in the town of Poplar Grove has sent the backyard fowl issue to its planning and zoning committee to come up with a set of rules.
Clayton has had no real ordinance forbidding chickens but has recently voted to change their "Possession of Domestic Fowl- Maintaining an Enclosed Pen" portion of its zoning regulations Section 210.280 "animals running at large" and section 220.020 "nuisances affecting health".
The meeting minutes for September 24th where this came to a vote are not yet online and as far as I was able to determine, some of the zoning change has to do with secondary structures (coop) and distance from property lines. But the minutes should be approved this week so we'll know more then.

Some cities find it difficult to enact strict ordinances dealing with personal home maintenance, but not Clayton. Where other cities may have many opponents at council meetings speaking against more strinent rules, most people in Clayton are supportive unless there is an issue which comes across as overreach.
Here is a link to Clayton's residential property maintenance rules and violations along with a check list homeowners can use to walk around their property to assess the needed repairs or clean-up. The video at the link on Clayton's enforcement is interesting too.
The City has adopted the 2006 International Property Maintenance Code
with amendments. The 2006 International Property Maintenance Code
establishes minimum standards for the maintenance of properties and also
contains provisions for the protection of tenants residing in rental
units and commercial offices. To determine that all properties meet
these standards, annual inspections of the exterior and common areas are
conducted. The goal of this inspection program is to assist in
preserving the quality of living in Clayton by ensuring reasonable
maintenance and safe occupancy.

Now that is a headline which stopped me in my tracks! We lived outside Okawville (in Venedy) back in the day when Dale was the pastor at St. Salvator and the headline had me mentally ticking off places where this man could have been a chef. I couldn't come up with any place except maybe the Original Mineral Springs Hotel, but that didn't seem likely. Now that we're in Clayton I find this doubly interesting. So maybe read the actual story?
Executive Chef, Josh Galliano is cheffing at the new Clayton restaurant, The Libertine (7927 Forsyth Blvd), but he lives in Okawville and makes the drive each day. Now that's a drive. He is orginally from New Orleans, got hit by Hurricane Katrina which had him leaving there and moving to his wife's hometown-Okawville.
The Libertine proprietors Nick and Audra Luedde wanted to create a menu that
Josh calls "accessible for people who are interested in food ... and
doesn't break everybody's budget." "A Neighborhood Eatery". He came up with a number of unusual meals, the Diner Burger, with molasses bacon, caramelized onions, house-made
"Cheese Whiz," served on a bacon-studded bun with french fries ($10).
Or, go for the Coffee Brined Pork Chop, with roasted broccoli, "smashed"
new potatoes and stout pan jus for $12.
Plus he's having some fun with pigs' tails. Eh hem. He orders The LIbertine's meat from Wennemans in St. Libory. Nice to know Clayton can have some good Southern Illinois menu items. And, if you make a reservation with a 618 area code, he'll come out to meet you because he likes Illinois people.
The Libertine has a website with a gallery of photos so you can take a look before you go.

A Clayton police report states that a person was arrested for stealing a bicycle from someone on our campus. Each year the neighborhood around us has spates of car break-ins and thefts but we rarely hear of anyone being caught much less arrested. The same is true in downtown St. Louis and in Forest Park and other places. Theft and broken car glass time after time.
So now what? They arrested whoever it was but most likely he was out in minutes and back doing the same things in another area.

Clayton Schools begin today and following tradition, seminary families with kids in public school walked together down to Captain elementary.

So excited she didn't even need a bike, she outran them.

Jay Beretta - The Set Up
Artist: Jay Beretta
Featuring: Masspike Miles
Producer: Write Time
Album: A Rough Road 2 the Stars
Avg Rating: 3.2 ( 13 votes )
When it comes to music, I like my tracks like most women like their intimate encounters: I don't want a two minute song, and if I do come across one, it better be pretty damn good. With that in mind, Jay Beretta's new single, The Setup, is here to make sure I don't have to choose, leaving my ears satisfied with over five minutes of good music from beginning to end. This time around the Detroit native joins forces with Masspike Miles to spit his creative flow on the subject of grinding to success: "Ain't no alarm clock/ cause I don't ever snooze/ I reach my arms out/ and probably grab the moon." The head-nodding, echoing production, supplied by Write Time, shines on the track, complimenting both Beretta's high-caliber bars and Miles' hypnotic hook. If you liked this track, be sure to check out Jay Beretta's A Rough Road 2 the Stars project, dropping in March and guaranteed to please.

One in every five wearable wireless devices set for healthcare deployment by 2017
June 25, 2012 // Julien Happich
A new wave of wearable devices is being launched that will help track and share data from a range of activities and conditions, taking a large share of the wearable wireless devices market, according to ABI Research.
These devices will track the pace of someone's daily run, recognize a fall that might have injured a senior, report the blood sugar level in a diabetic, and monitor the heart rate of a patient in hospital. "The breadth of the potential for this market is not just drawing in consumer giants like Nike and Adidas and established healthcare players such as GE Healthcare and Philips, but a wealth of start-ups and specialist players looking to wearable wireless devices to enable a wide range of networked health applications and services," says Jonathan Collins, principal analyst, navigation, telematics & M2M.
Over the next five years, the market for wearable wireless devices will grow to 169.5 million devices in 2017, up from 20.77 million in 2011, a CAGR of 41%. While the bulk of the device shipments will be in the consumer-oriented sports, fitness, and wellness market, wearable devices will increasingly be adopted across home monitoring and healthcare service applications as well.
"Remote patient monitoring and on-site professional healthcare use will represent just over 20 percent of the wearable wireless device market by 2017, up from less than half that in 2011. "As the devices can be worn and can upload collected data to the network automatically, collected data can not only be more regularly collected but also shared, analyzed, and acted on quicker and more efficiently that existing wired or manpower-laden techniques," says Collins.
ABI Research's report, "Body Area Networks for Sports and Healthcare," examines the potential for devices and applications across a range of sports and healthcare applications, including analysis of a range of embedded technology options including short-range wireless and M2M connectivity.

Hate crime alleged in attack on Latino man
A 42-year-old Kent man was charged Monday with second-degree assault and malicious harassment for allegedly beating a Latino man last week in what prosecutors allege was a racially motivated attack.
Seattle Times staff reporter
A 42-year-old Kent man was charged Monday with second-degree assault and malicious harassment for allegedly beating a Latino man last week in what prosecutors allege was a racially motivated attack. Kurt Randall Madsen was arrested early Thursday and is being held in the King County Jail in lieu of $250,000 bail, according to jail records. He is to be arraigned Oct. 10.
Madsen and the Latino man were drinking together behind the Applebee's restaurant at 25442 104th Ave. S.E. and argued after Madsen began making racial slurs, according to charging documents. A co-worker of the Latino man — both worked in the restaurant — separated the men.
Madsen, who was intoxicated, was denied service in the restaurant and went out to the parking lot, where he confronted the Latino man and accused him of being "an illegal immigrant." Madsen is accused of punching the man repeatedly in the face until he fell to the ground, then straddling the man and slamming his head into some rocks, the papers say.
It took four people to pull Madsen off the man, the papers allege.
Madsen continued shouting racial slurs as he unlocked his bike and began to walk away. The slurs further provoked the alleged victim, who was able to get past his co-worker to approach Madsen.
Madsen swung his bike lock, which was attached to a metal chain, striking the man on the left side of his face and knocking him to the ground, charging papers say.
Madsen repeatedly asked the victim for his "papers," leading the investigating detective to believe "that Madsen's perception of [the alleged victim's] race and citizenship status was a factor" in the attack, according to charging papers. Malicious harassment is the state's hate-crime law.
The victim, whose citizenship status isn't indicated in court papers, suffered significant facial injuries, including a fractured orbital bone, according to charging documents.

I can wear out a pair of boots but artists are tough and comfy. Guy at the shoe store said six months to a year is about average for a pair of work boots, but for me six months was tops on any other brand but ariats last me about a year I put them through water mud dust gravel and they are great! Very satisfied! October 2, 2014

With co2 forced carbonations do i still need to add the priming sugar?
What are the basic steps to complete this process? Thanks for your help.
do you leave the co2 conected at 30psi or just get the pressure up to 30?
Anyone ever use one of those "carbonating stones"? Does that go more toward the crank and go method or the slow and low technique?
You can set the pressure at 12 PSI or whatever the tables say *and* shake if you want to speed things up a bit. It'll help the CO2 absorb more quickly without the guesswork of the 30 PSI method.

Aaron Cruden banned for two matches after missing team flight
Aaron Cruden has said he's deeply embarrassed after a drunken night out has resulted in him missing the All Blacks' team flight to Argentina. He has been suspended for two matches, so will miss Tests against Los Pumas and the Springboks.
A few members of the New Zealand squad were at a bar for a meal and drinks ahead of the flight to Argentina for the next round of the Rugby Championship. As Cruden explained in his statement:
"On Saturday night, whilst out for an informal dinner in Auckland, I made a poor decision regarding the limits of my alcohol intake," the talented number ten said.
"This has resulted in the unacceptable action of me being absent from the All Blacks assembly on Sunday morning and thus missing the team flight to Argentina.
"I am deeply embarrassed by this lack of judgement and have never been more disappointed in myself. I have not only let myself down, but most importantly, I have let the team down. I carry the burden of shame and disappointment and I am deeply apologetic to my team, to my family, and also the New Zealand rugby public.
"I have no excuses. I have been working really hard over the past few years at gaining the respect on the field as well as off the field and am devastated I have dropped my own high personal standards, as well as the standards set by New Zealand rugby.
"I accept full responsibility for my actions and the penalty of missing the next two games, and will work with New Zealand rugby to undertake any other disciplinary action to work through this situation."
As well as missing the matches and the fees that he would have received, he'll no doubt face a disciplinary hearing of some sort in a few week's time. Unlike other past cases of high profile rugby players with drinking problems, this appears to be a once off, and to his credit, he's handled it well.
"It's certainly out of character for him and he's extremely disappointed, as are we," said coach Steve Hansen. "It's not what we stand for and it's not what he stands for. I guess we all make mistakes. Like our children, we love our children but sometimes we don't like their behaviour."

Friday Funnies - Kick it like Wilko
With the Rugby World Cup now exactly a year out, and ticket sales taking place this month, the IRB are aiming to encourage fans to make sure that they 'buy official', and don't get caught out by the apparent droves of illegal ticketing sources available. This video, just released, is part of that effort.
By visiting www.rugbyworldcup.com/buyofficial fans can access a dedicated official checker that will enable them to verify whether their Rugby World Cup 2015 tickets, supporter tours or hospitality source are official, a first for Rugby World Cup.

The Top 5 Schoolboy Prodigies, then and now
Schoolboy rugby regularly produces hugely entertaining clashes, as well as youngsters that make a name for themselves early on. There have been some great talents that first get noticed when they are just teenagers, so here's a look at just five of them.
Sean Maloney trawled through footage of some of today's biggest stars, coming up with a Top 5 that include players who have gone on to be stars at the highest level.
Johan Goosen of South Africa famously kicked a huge penalty when still at junior level. It wasn't that long ago, and the video went viral at the time as it was quite hard to believe. Since then he's played for the Cheetahs in Super Rugby, and been capped by the Springboks.
Injury problems have hampered his chances of being a regular fixture, so for now he's plying his trade where another big-booted Freestate boy played for a while, with Racing Metro in France.
Manu Tuilagi's story is well known. The Samoan with famous rugby playing brothers, he's the youngest son and also the only to have played for another country, England. He visited the UK, stayed, and went on to become a beast of a player at schoolboy level. Higher honours followed and today he remains one of England's most lethal attacking weapons.
A mesmeric talent who could turn on a sixpence, Kurtley Beale's path is also fairly well known. He was an absolute stand out at St Joseph College, playing 1st XV from a young age after arriving there with his brother on an indigenous scholarship.
He was a Waratah when he was still a teenager, and despite some way too public troubles, Beale has gone on to represent the Wallabies 46 times. And he's still just 25 years old.
The Ella Brothers, Mark, Glenn and Gary, are probably lesser known for younger fans, but at their peak were a dominant force for Matraville High, Randwick Rugby Club and later, the Wallabies. They loved free flowing rugby, and delighted fans with their sublime skills for many years.
All Black Julian Savea, the latest of a long line of massive New Zealand wingers, has cemented his place in the World Champion side not only through prolific try-scoring, but clearly due to the way that he has worked on his game.
As a schoolboy he was untouchable, as he was at U20 level, but at times his hands left him down. He's put a lot of work into that since, and it shows, with him now looking very solid under the high ball. That's usually followed by a big thigh to the face of a would-be tackler.
There are other players that could have been included in this compilation but it's a Top 5 so these are the picks of the guys at Rugby HQ, who say that to make the video the player had to represent their country. Also, Jonah Lomu isn't included because he's been in many other Top 5's already.
Who else could be on this list? Feel free to discuss and share links in the comments below. It's best to Register your account to comment, or Login here.

One Year to Go until Rugby World Cup 2015 Kickoff
Today mark's one year to go until Rugby World Cup 2015 kicks off, so to celebrate the upcoming tournament, Land Rover caught up with a number of stars from the sporting and rugby worlds to find out what they plan to achieve in the next twelve months.
Players invovled were Mike Tindall, Andrea Masi, Clive Woodward, Jonny Wilkinson and George Gregan, to name a few. "This time next year" is the line they led with, and it produced some interesting answers, and a few that fans will be pleased to hear.
Wilkinson, renowned for the discipline that he put into his training regimes, declares he "will not be so obsessive", while former England teammate Mike Tindall "might have a straight nose."
Moody, already boasting a head of golden flowing locks, vows "to have grown one of the world's most horrendous mullets!" by the time the tournament kicks off on 18th September 2015.
Also featuring in the video are Olympic Gold medallist Denise Lewis, who wishes to learn a sentence of Mandarin, long distance runner Ashley Varley and George Gregan, himself a RWC winner with Australia in 1999, who simply vows to be in London for the tournament (while quoting Snatch).
As a Worldwide Partner of Rugby World Cup 2015, Land Rover is building on its long term commitment to the Game both in the UK and around the world which includes Premiership Rugby in England, as well as sponsorship of the Super 14 in France, the ACT Brumbies in Australia and the Stormers and Western Province in South Africa.

If you have perfectly good wooden kitchen cabinets, LEAVE THEM ALONE!!!!

Kitchens are a LOT of work but well worth it when you are done! I can't wait to redo mine, but my DH is not very handy and my Dad refuses to do any of that stuff anymore, so I have to save my pennies so I can hire someone to do it all! LOL! It'll be YEARS before I can do it!
