The CBS Television Network today announced that Stephen Colbert, the host, writer and executive producer of the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning "The Colbert Report," will succeed David Letterman as the host of THE LATE SHOW, effective when Mr. Letterman retires from the broadcast. The five-year agreement between CBS and Colbert was announced by Leslie Moonves, President and CEO, CBSCorporation, and Nina Tassler, Chairman of CBSEntertainment.
In a statement released today, David Letterman commented on the news of Colbert's hiring:
"Stephen has always been a real friend to me. I'm very excited for him, and I'm flattered that CBS chose him. I also happen to know they wanted another guy with glasses."
Jimmy Fallon, who recently took over hosting duties of NBC's TONIGHT SHOW from Jay Leno, turned to Twitter to welcome Colbert to his new late show time slot, posting: "I'd like to welcome the great @StephenAtHome to network late night and also congratulate him on his new name: Jimmy Colbert."

It occurs to me that the "we both forgot to use condoms" thing that comes up often enough is a bit like suggesting that a person forgot to wear pants.
For a whole day.
And didn't notice.
At all.
They got home, and after hours of being out in the cold or the sun, at work, getting lunch, taking the bus back and forth, only when they saw their pants laying on the bed did they go, "Whoah! I haven't had pants on ALL DAY! I had NO IDEA WHATSOEVER!"
Just think about it. Seriously. Think about it. If in doubt, try The Great Pantsless Experiment and see how long you go without noticing.
Here's a thing to know: chances are AWFULLY good that at least one person in that situation, and certainly the person who would be WEARING the condom realizes they're not wearing a condom. Probably right from the start, but if not then pretty darn shortly thereafter.
That person is highly unlikely not to feel any difference at all, because even though various kinds of sex can feel just as awesome with condoms
Read more...I truly think I'm ready for sex, I'm comfortable with myself and my partner and am not at all nervous for losing my virginity. I'm only 16 but people say that different people are ready at different times right? and I think I'm ready now, I've ticked off all of the checkpoints on your "am I ready" checklist but there is one problem. I'm worried about if people will judge me for it. My question is should I stop doing what I want out of fear of how others will see my action?
I'm 13 years old and my friend didn't go into detail, but she said she got raped by her dad(or her stepfather). she didn't tell her mom "because she'd get mad" and didn't think it would matter since her parents are getting a divorce and she'll move away with her mom soon. she doesn't want me to tell anyone and refuses to tell anyone. I can't change her mind about that because she's very stubborn.I know I should tell someone, but who should I tell?
Hey! I'm 19, and from a very conservative background-Republic, Christian, the whole shebang. I'm a freshman at a pretty liberal college now, and I admit that I've gone the tiniest bit nuts with my newfound freedom. Before coming to college, I'd only made out with three guys - all of whom were Christian, all of whom I was dating at the time. But last weekend, I went home with a guy I didn't know, and I gave him a blow job and he fingered me. I was very adamant about NOT having sex, because I know I want that to be with someone I love.
I'm feeling pretty guilty now, though. Everyone would be so disappointed back home, because it was made clear to me that EVERYTHING is off limits till marriage. It felt great at the time, but do you think it's bad because I didn't know him at all?
My boyfriend and I have had unprotected sex and my last period was 2 months ago (in 10 more days). I've had a two week delay on my period before, and I'm pretty volatile and feeling cramps every now and then but still....no blood. I'm scared to death I may be pregnant but I absolutely CAN NOT tell my mom. I'd be disowned, without a doubt. So....please help me!! I'm getting desperate enough as to seriously consider an abortion because my body can barely support myself, never mind a baby. I heard Vitamin C helps induce a self-inflicted abortion, too. I'm saving up for a test at Planned Parenthood, but I'm still nervous and scared as all heck. Words of advice??
My girlfriend and I (I'm a chick) are both virgins. Is there any point in us using a dental dam when/if we have oral sex?
I'm 13 and I really need some help. I have been talking to this guy for ages on my phone and texting him. We have Skyped, and I know he might be 'one of those older people who have random children acting for them and they have voice filters' etc, but he has Facebook and I know loads of people who know him, but I just haven't met him. He is really nice and we both wanna meet each other... We decided we were gonna meet and I'm really excited. He says he wants to finger me, and he want me to give him head, that's fine because I have done it before so all's cool. Then when he asked if I wanted to have sex with him, I got creeped. Just need someone to say if I'm doing the right thing or not.
As a sex educator, I don't define sex as only being about penis-in-vagina intercourse, for a whole lot of reasons.
For one, I know that a lot of people (including myself sometimes!) have or have had satisfying, full sexual lives without intercourse, either because they're not at intercourse yet in life or a given relationship, it's off the table for a while for some reason, or because they're in relationships where penis-in-vagina sex just isn't an option or possibility in the first place. I also know, as a sex educator, that some or all of the physical and emotional things that can happen with penis-in-vagina intercourse can and typically do happen with other kinds of sex, whether we're talking about emotional feelings or experiences, the human sexual response cycle, the expression of sexuality in general or possible outcomes like STIs or pregnancy. The way I define sex as a sex educator is like so:

Mode 7's simultaneous turn-based future-sport game, Frozen Cortex [official site], has received an enormous update, adding a lifetime's worth of singleplayer content. Even if you expect your own lifetime to cover an extended period, you should be covered – the update includes randomised seasons, persistent story elements, commentators, a perma-death knockout mode and loads of unique players. I've been looking forward to this as much as almost any other game this year.

Awesome on the lagoon view and great food. Been going there every year for the past many years. Great filet steak best steak in Cancun.
Very romantic setting out on the dock. The food was good and the service was good. They are well known for their pot of mussels...my husband enjoyed his.
Ate there for breakfast all 3 days - didn't think there was much variety. Not large space, average. We never had trouble getting seated. You can order your eggs and pancakes to have it made fresh. Fruit was yummy.
It's an absolute "must" when visiting Cancún !! Delicious food ! Great view! Very intimate restaurant ...It's my third time and the food is amazing !!
This is a place which we had a hard time finding at first but with the help of the Hotel, we found it. A couple of us had ordered the special but I guess they ran out of it? So, we ordered something else. The service and food is pretty good and we have eaten here about 3 times. We... More
The food and the atmosphere... Awesome! Great food with a Belgian flair! Off the beaten path.. Take a cab and arrange the same cab return!
restaurant view looks east in the lagoon toward the hotel strip. Food is authentic Belgian with occasional mex twist. Both food and service were good. Sunset over the water was amazing. Peaceful.
Don't know if this Resturant is under New Ownership or has New Chef but the Food hear now Sucks. Use to be one of our Favorite Restaurant in Cancun a Trip was never complete without a visit to this Resturant. We talked to the Manager and he claims nothing changed.

This turned out to be roughly what's described. We booked for 20 people on the same day and they didn't bat an eyelid. If you're looking for a less touristy alternative to Mexican this might be your place.

Recommend by our hotel. Location is fantastic on the lagoon side. Quaint and quiet; you ca hear the water lapping the side of the structure. Service was great. Food couldnurse some improvement, but my wife glad the fish of the day which was very good

Revealed: How America won Europe the Cup
It was America that won it. Rory McIlroy, who arrived at the course just 10 minutes before his singles match on Sunday because of confusion over US time-zones, had two quick-thinking officials from the PGA of America – and Lombard deputy police chief Pat Rollins – to thank for his role in winning the Ryder Cup. Without them, McIlroy, above, would not have made his tee time and the point he won against Keegan Bradley would have been awarded to America, handing the Ryder Cup back to the hosts.
The alarm was raised by Erica Stoll, a PGA transport official at Medinah, who noticed McIlroy had not arrived. A sweep of the course revealed he was not on site, prompting a call to her colleague.
Elsewhere, Martin Kaymer revealed how a chat with fellow German Bernhard Langer, who missed the vital putt in the tournament in 1991, helped him hold his nerve to hole the crucial putt which ensured Europe retained the trophy. "I sat down with Bernhard and talked to him a little bit about the Ryder Cup because my attitude wasn't the right one," Kaymer said. MORE
Poulter: I proved doubters wrong

In a week already heavy with hip-hop endorsement talk, Snoop Dogg—I mean, Snoop Lion—has publicly voiced his support for a second Obama term. Close one, right? You can watch his oddly compelling testimonial above, and then you can go back to whatever you were doing. But the real question is, will Romney come out with the Minaj defense and claim that Snoop just "likes to play different characters"? Hmm: Snoop Dogg, Snoop Lion, The Doggfather, plain old Calvin Broadus—there may actually be something there...

Sir Paul Smith: 'I lament the decline in craftsmanship'
Small businesses are under too much pressure to turn a profit and achieve status, designer supreme Sir Paul Smith tells Simon Usborne. And the result is that skills are disappearing
Monday 30 August 2010
Sir Paul Smith can't remember if it was even sunny the day he wore the sunglasses that nearly killed him. He didn't care. Aged 17, he just wanted to look good – and his Buddy Holly wayfarers were about as cool as things got in 1960s suburban Nottinghamshire. But they weren't suitable for cycling, which is what Smith was doing at great speed when, his vision of the car ahead obscured by his chunky frames, he slammed into a car.
"I hit the back of it but ended up on the bonnet and then on the ground," Smith says, waving his arms about his top-floor office at his London headquarters. Dazed and bleeding, the promising junior racer dragged himself to his feet only for the shattered end of his thigh bone to tear through his muscle and skin. He spent three months in hospital, his dreams of becoming a professional cyclist smashed on the asphalt along with his leg, nose, collarbone and several ribs.
Of course cycling's loss would be fashion's gain – it was while he was laid up and licking his wounds that Smith would meet the art and fashion students who helped inspire a new ambition. And he's done all right. Smith's snappy suits with their signature flashes of colour cosset the shoulders of footballers, world leaders, and leading men, while a lucrative line in accessories as diverse as snowboards and wash bags have helped him ride out the recession while cannily hanging on to the respect of his peers.
But if success brings with it the opportunity to indulge one's passions then pleasure for Smith, 64, doesn't float on gin palaces or soar on private jets – it rolls on two wheels. The designer's well-known love of cycling is most evident in his office, where half a dozen spotless bikes lean against studied clutter on bookshelves and walls.
"Look at this," he says, bounding across the polished parquet wearing suede loafers with bright blue socks, grey trousers and a white, unbuttoned shirt. Gleaming in the sunlight streaming through the windows sits one of his latest designs, a lovingly crafted fixed-gear Mercian in blue and green.
Smith hoists the bike on to the oak table that dominates his office, and gazes at it longingly. It is a work of art, but for Smith it symbolises more than a deep fondness for the sport. He designed it as a favour to Mercian, one of England's last bespoke cycle makers, to mark its 60th anniversary. It was a Mercian that transformed Smith's upbringing in Beeston near Nottingham; the designer says he has "no memory at all" of life before he was 11, when he got his first bike, a pale blue racer.
"I look at this bike and see something that was handmade in England by a small business," Smith says. "And that's something I mourn – the fact that there are now so few small companies like that. I worry about the pressure young people feel to earn a certain amount of money or to achieve a certain status. To be a stonemason and only to carve as much stone as your hands can manage isn't attractive anymore." It's a curious cry from Britain's most commercially successful fashion designer – a man who commands a global empire spanning 74 countries that racked up sales last year of almost £350m (from which he is thought to have pocketed £4m), and who lends his instantly recognisable autograph and candy-stripe motif to a dizzying array of accessories including, last year, a glass bottle for Evian (the stripes were painted in organic ink, naturally).
Smith admits he has sold out, if not in so many words, but his lament for the craftsman is not without legitimacy. When he started more than 40 years ago, Smith only sold what he could cut and stitch with his own hands. A secondary school drop-out at the age of 15, Smith had developed an eye for design while improvising displays at the clothing warehouse to which his father, Harold, had taken him to find work.
After the bike crash, Smith helped a designer friend, Janet, to open Nottingham's first boutique. Later, his girlfriend and now wife, Pauline, another fashion student, taught him about patterns and fabric, skills he perfected while doing night classes at a tailors specialising in military uniforms.
Smith opened his first store in a Nottingham back alley in 1970, and carefully cultivated a loyal clientele made up of bands such as Led Zeppelin and snappy dressers who wanted the cut of a Savile Row suit but with a modern flash, or "classic with a twist" as Smith called it.
He waited nine years before opening his first store in London, but first he needed cash. One bank manager said no, put off by Smith's long hair and garish red scarf, but eventually loans were secured – and the rest is history.
But how would Smith rate his chances now as a talented young designer with half a foot in the fast-revolving door of fashion? With George Osborne pitched in a battle against the banks over the latter's reluctance to lend to the Smiths of today, times have rarely been tighter for fledgling small businesses – particularly those established by the kind of artisans that Smith believes are so important. "I think there is the possibility to do OK in today's world but the sad fact is that very few people are going to succeed," he says. "I don't envy them."
Not that Smith lays the blame entirely at the doors of the bankers or politicians. At the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man (he couldn't be less grumpy and daily swimming and frequent cycling lends him the air and gangling physique of a much younger man) Smith picks out flaws in today's crop of young creatives and entrepreneurs.
"I meet a lot of young designers now and they're so talented but they lack the life skills you need to make money," he says. "When I started my clothes were quite particular and I knew I wouldn't sell a lot, so I only opened on Fridays and Saturdays. For the rest of the week I rolled up my sleeves and did shitty jobs – styling, or just borrowing a mate's Transit van to go selling suits – so I could keep the shop pure. So many people today only want the purity and wonder why they go bankrupt. You've got to have a balance between image-making and rent-paying."
The balance has been hard to strike in the downturn. Christian Lacroix's high-concept, high-price lines had never turned a profit and last year, as rich shoppers tightened their belts, the French label went bust, the most prominent among a host of big brands to flounder in the recession.
Smith's clientele is much broader than Lacroix's. The collections he will show at next month's London Fashion Week represent his Friday and Saturday. The real money comes from the off-the-peg suits, the shoes and the endless accessories. "What people don't know is how much I say no to," Smith says in response to the suggestion he risks harming his name by slapping it on so much stuff. "This year I could have done a couple of hotels, three mobile phones and about five cars. But saying yes has always been about earning money by doing jobs that aren't so appealing to subsidise the purity I dreamed about."
If Smith offers a blueprint for survival during tough times then he says success is built on graft, honesty, humility – and good manners. Back in the early Eighties, when Japan looked like emerging as a lucrative market, several designers were invited to Tokyo, but none seized the opportunity like Smith. "It's all about getting in there, embracing people and hoping that they will embrace you," he says.
Smith's dedication and natural entrepreneurialism has paid off – Japan accounts for almost half his global turnover. His customers sometimes embrace him too enthusiastically – Smith is frequently mobbed on the streets of the country's big cities. "It's like being a pop star," he says. "Sometimes I've had extreme situations where I've had to run up fire escapes because 800 people are chasing me." Smith lopes next-door to retrieve a copy of Men's Non-No, a Japanese fashion magazine.
"Look, there are 16 pages of Paul Smith," he says. "It's just unbelievable. But ultimately all this comes down to effort." The headline on the cover reads: "Paul Smith: Unbeatable." Smith adds: "One of my Japanese staff said it painted a picture of strength and continuity – like a battleship."
London Fashion Week is looming but at no point does Smith seem interested in talking about clothes. He exudes an air of calm – a calm which seems to circulate the building. There is the sense that the empire has become so unsinkable that, to some extent, it pilots itself, leaving its founder to his first love. Cycling dominates Smith's blog, where he writes about such topics as the discovery of rare Italian cycling shoes, or today's stars of the road, many of whom, including Mark Cavendish and Bradley Wiggins, he counts as friends.
Smith recently announced a new range of jerseys and accessories he has designed for Rapha, the premium London bikewear brand. If there's one thing that the leg- shattering crash didn't change about Smith – and it transformed everything else – it's his desire to look good on his bike. "Perhaps I should design some cycling sunglasses," he says, laughing.

At its IMPACT 2012 conference today, Bernie Clark, executive vice president and head of Schwab Advisor Services announced the development and enhancement of two separate state-of-the-art learning facilities at UC Irvine and Texas Tech, which offer students the ability to receive high-quality training and educational tools in the areas of investment and wealth management. The development of these hands-on learning environments at both universities was made possible by Charles Schwab and the Charles Schwab Foundation through contributions of resources, technology and funds to build a new facility and enhance an existing one.

"We are honored to have the opportunity to help support such widely respected academic institutions as UCI and Texas Tech, with whom we share the vision and goal of cultivating innovative and highly-skilled future business leaders," said Bernie Clark. "We look forward to taking new steps to help further their work and to support those who are seeking to enter the financial services industry with the skills and know-how necessary to hit the ground running."
At UCI, plans are in place within the university's Paul Merage School of Business to create the Charles Schwab Trading and Technology Lab, a new, dynamic trading floor and technology facility. Scheduled to break ground in 2013, this new facility will mimic the environment and layout found at a securities-trading floor and allow students to access the latest financial market data, along with real-world tools and technology such as interactive trade stations featuring Bloomberg, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Thomson/Reuters, Matlab, Factset, eSignal, TV monitors streaming global financial news and tickertape.
In addition, Schwab has donated a technology package, which includes license seats to Schwab Performance Technologies' PortfolioCenter® - one of the most widely used portfolio management applications available in the financial services industry and SchwabAdvisorCenter.com, the website used by RIAs who custody assets with Schwab Advisor Services. Schwab is also including the Schwab OpenView Gateway and the Schwab OpenView Workflow Library from Schwab Intelligent Technologies -- recently developed solutions focused on helping advisors scale their firms and better serve their clients by integrating technology and best practices workflows. Schwab will provide a tutorial environment, complete with demo data, so that students can receive hands-on experience in using the technology and role playing a wide range of advisor activities from business development and client service to investment management and back office operations.
"For a business school at the forefront of innovation, collaboration, research and technology, we want our students to receive the highest quality education through a practical and hands-on learning experience. This donation will make the Charles Schwab Trading Lab a reality, providing the leading concepts in a practical training ground for future leaders in the financial services industry," said Andy Policano, dean of the Merage School.
Schwab will continue to support Texas Tech by working with the university to upgrade its Charles Schwab Personal Financial Planning Complex, originally constructed in 2009, following a donation from the company. The facility, which is used by more than 300 undergraduate and graduate students in the University's Personal Financial Planning Department, is comprised of four rooms that house a 40-workstation technology classroom, a 16-unit technology work lab, and resource workspace, including conference and recording rooms. Designed to offer hands-on financial planning experience in client portfolio management, reporting and customer relationship management, students receive training and access to Schwab PortfolioCenter®, as well as a SchwabAdvisorCenter.com. Schwab will also include the Schwab OpenView Gateway and the Schwab OpenView Workflow Library. The donation from Schwab will be used for enhancements to the Charles Schwab Personal Financial Planning Complex including replacement computers, printers and recording equipment, as well as additional printers and data storage to accommodate the growing appetite for real-world money management experience among the student body.
In addition to direct donations, Schwab is hosting students from seven universities to gain industry education and networking opportunities at the 21st annual IMPACT conference, one of the largest gatherings for independent investment advisors in the financial services industry. Schwab announced its continued investments in UCI and Texas Tech at a special student luncheon and panel discussion on Thursday, November 15, which served as a meeting ground for both students and advisors. The luncheon also provided an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the educational initiatives, the value they have provided to students to date, and the impact these types of programs will have on shaping future business leaders within the industry going forward. Schwab's Bernie Clark provided opening remarks to the panel discussion, with featured panelists including: Christine Daminco, Financial Planning Resident, Cornerstone Wealth Advisors, Inc.; Elissa Buie, CFP®, President and CEO, Yeske Buie and Adjunct Professor, Golden Gate University; and Barry Glassman, CFP®, CFS, President, Glassman Wealth Services.

Comments about 'Cougars renew old rivalry on Islands'

Hmmm. As a long time Cougar fan, I never sensed much of a "rivalry" with Hawaii. Perhaps it was a one-way rivalry. Sure, they beat us a few times in spectacular fashion, but those always seemed liked flukes... not the stuff of true rivalries. A number of teams in the MWC also talked about a "rivalry" with BYU but really, our rival has always been Utah. Whether that will change now who knows? But Hawaii was never a rival, IMHO.

Sure not in the classic sense of the Utah Vs. BYU
rivalry. The Hawaii game is truly a "Local Boy" rivalry. Many of the
Polynesian players of Hawaiian, Samoan and Tongan heritage either are from prep
schools on Oahu or from some of the other Hawaiian islands.
Also, you
have the LDS connection with these boy's now you have the making of a good old
fashion " church basketball " grudge match.
So yes you
are sorta right it is not the Utah thing, but to the " Local Boy's "
dis is dakine beef brutha !

I would have to say that the average BYU fan would say that there is no rivalry between UH and BYU. Yes, BYU vs UTAH is the biggest for the state. You have to factor in location proximity, recruiting war, fan base. For UH who has no other in state state college team, BYU is their rival. They only had to look across the field to see all the their highly touted local boys playing for BYU. I know that the BYU players once understood the intensity of the game. When was the last time a BYU tight end flipped the double bird on a opposing crowd. That would be Byron Rex after he scored a touchdown against UH!

I was shocked at how small this bounce house inflated to. The photo made is seem big enough for at LEAST two people to bounce in. Wrong. The ball pit is so shallow and can only hold my 4 year old sitting in it. Not something they can really jump in.

A year ago, I posted a list of things I looked forward to and hoped to see in the Oklahoma City food scene in 2012 food scene. So now it's time to review.
Food Dude looks back at 2012's success list
First up was the opening of Local, which turned out to be one of the coolest things that happened in 2012. Chef Ryan Parrott left the kitchen at Iguana Mexican Grill to help open this ambitious Norman concept with sisters Melissa Scaramucci, Heather Steele and Abby Clark. The fledgling restaurant has endured typical growing pains and Normancentric growing pains, but the future looks bright for this farm-to-form restaurant that features a seasonal menu, lots of square-footage, an area just for kids and an approachable, affordable menu.
Staying in Norman, there was the arrival of the Austin, Texas-based chain Chuy's Tex-Mex Cafe. The place has been a resounding success, and units for Oklahoma City proper and Edmond can't be far behind. When this growth occurs, current Tex-Mex purveyors will be on notice to elevate or be eliminated.
I wrote that I wished to see the locavore movement spread beyond the true believers: Thanks to the foundation of champions for local and the Whole Foods effect, more people are using local than they have since they had no other choice. That's refreshing. The next step is for our local producers to fortify distribution. Currently, we have the Oklahoma Food Cooperative and a string of county-by-county farmers markets, which have served us well. Growth and cooperation will make things even better for both vendor and customer.
I was also hoping street food growth would expand, and it has. Once upon a time, Bobo's Chicken and a fleet of nearly anonymous taco trucks south of downtown were your best options for late-night street food. The H&8th get-togethers during warm months have succeeded in developing demand for an organized effort to gather and sup after hours. Waffle Champion has been so successful that a bricks-and-mortar location is now in the works. Heo's Kitchen and Taste of Soul Egg Roll have fortified the work of Big Truck Tacos. So, there's a little growth, but I would love to see even more.

Today's Tarot for Antonio Banderas
One Card
spread is the most concise of all spreads, intended to provide a quick take on a situation, or to reduce it to a single point of meditation. The
Curious Tarot
is the rarest and most unusual of modern decks. The cards form a surreal collage of American consumer imagery, eerily capturing the archetypes of the atomic age. It is the deck of those who seek to harness the ancient tribal energy that courses through the modern urban world. There are only 100 Curious Tarot decks in existence - if you want one,

The card represents the critical factor for the issue at hand.
Page of Wands
: The essence of fire behaving as earth, such as wood or coal: The surprising appearance of a new passion. An adventurer who blazes through life, acting as a catalyst that others may harness. The intense enthusiasm and childlike imagination that fuels any new venture, needing only the application of mind and material to make it a success. Inner fire that can drive away fear and replace it with fury. Can represent a person of some timidity, but whose innate passion can be easily ignited. May indicate the birth of a child.

Robin Wood Tarot
A very highly regarded deck with strong Wiccan overtones and a striking illustrated visual style.
Ukiyoe Tarot
The familiar imagery of Rider-Waite rendered in floral motifs and woodblock print, and the other conventions of traditional Japan. A stunning marriage of East and West.
Tarot History, Mystery, and Lore
A carefully researched volume full of information on the true origins and influence of Tarot through history. Excellent reading and a solid counterpoint to the odd distortions of Tarot in the popular media.
