Top-notch indie rock pedigree or not, A Thing Called Divine Fits (named for the opening lyrics to most of Sister Nancy's repertoire) is a stellar debut by any measure—from irresistible up-tempo hookfests "Would That Not Be Nice" and "Like Ice Cream" to the cool Motorik pulse of "Baby Get Worse" and "The Salton Sea" to the tender acoustic guitar strains of "Civilian Stripes" and the sublime take on Rowland S. Howard's "Shivers."

George Harrison memorial garden opens to the public
The George Harrison Memorial Garden at the Bhaktivedanta Manor Estate near Watford is now open to the public.
Harrison – who passed away in 2001 – gave the site, formerly known as Piggots Manor, to the International Society for Krishna Consciousness in 1973 after becoming a follower of the Hare Krishna religion. Following Harrison's death, a garden was created in his remembrance. His widow Olivia Harrison said: "I am grateful to the devotees for honouring George in the form of a garden. A manifestation in the material world of which he would be very proud."
Olivia and gardener Monty Don will both attend the garden's official opening. Don commented: "I am delighted and honoured to open the garden commemorating George Harrison at Bhaktivedanta Manor and that the public will be able to share George's great love of gardening and deep spirituality."
Temple leader Gauri Das added: "There is a deep spirituality in the lyrics of George Harrison, some through metaphor and others more direct. The garden reflects his spiritual journey, it is a mystical one and it correlates with some of the oldest sacred texts known to man. For us it is a tremendous honour that garden is opened on the 40th anniversary of Bhaktivedanta Manor, one of Britain's most prominent temples and donated by George."
Earlier this year, George Harrison and John Lennon
received a Blue Plaque in London. The commemoration was at 94 Baker Street - the site of the Apple Boutique clothing shop, which was owned in the 1960s by The Beatles company Apple Corps Ltd. A plaque to Lennon was already on the site, but was replaced with one that also remembers Harrison.

Touted as the "world's largest beverage company", Coca-Cola is about to take social networking to a new level with its up-and-coming Expedition 206. Three lucky people will embark on a 275,000 mile journey through 206 countries and territories where the Coke products are sold. The year-long mission for the three "Happiness Ambassadors," is simple – find out what makes people happy.
Happiness Ambassadors
After getting recommendations from various sources, 60 potential candidates were up for the once-in-a-lifetime gig. The candidate list was then narrowed to 18 and then to nine. The three lucky winners were selected in a world-wide online vote. Antonio Santiago, Kelly Ferris and Tony Martin will kick off their year-long adventure on January 1, 2010, in Madrid.
Between them, the team speaks several languages including English, French, German, Spanish and Dutch. To help prepare for the jaunt around the world, the three took part in a "Happiness Ambassador Training Camp" which included a variety of educational sessions, speed-packing techniques, exotic food tasting and tips to stay mentally and physically healthy on the road. The team will receive per diem for food and local travel.
Social Networking Kicked up a Notch
Armed with laptops, video cameras and smart phones, the trio will document its "search for happiness" throughout the 365-day journey. During the "Open Happiness" campaign, the threesome will be visiting people from other cultures, sharing their stories and adventures via blogs, tweets, videos, and more. Viewers can track the trio's trek on a variety of social networking sites including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr. Viewers can also watch the Expedition 206 in real-time on the official website.
Besides participating in the Winter Olympics, World Expo, FIFA World Cup and other global and local events along the way, fans will be able to get in on the adventure, too. By serving as "virtual travel agents," people from across the globe will get to play a part in where the Happiness Ambassadors go and what they do. Know a fabulous restaurant in Italy or must-see attraction in England? Go ahead and let them in on the secret.
And Coca-Cola will be watching! In the age of social and digital media, combining PR, communications and marketing is one way to expand a brand. While logistical, digital communication and unknown challenges may occur during the trip, contingency plans have been created, just in case.
The last stop of the Expedition 206 will be in Atlanta, on December 31, 2010. I don't know about you, but I'm exhausted just thinking about this!

Residents of Contaminated Community to be Relocated Away from
Toxic Chemicals Exposure
Many residents have died, are sick from chemicals plant exposures
Mossville, Louisiana – The people of Mossville, Louisiana, living in the shadow of chronic toxic chemicals exposure from 14 petrochemical facilities, will have the opportunity to voluntarily relocate, according to a statement announced Friday by the South African-based energy and chemicals company, Sasol. Mossville is an historic African American community located in southwest Louisiana.
"A Sasol representative announced plans to introduce the Voluntary Property Purchase Program in Mossville," says Mossville resident Dorothy Felix, with Mossville Environmental Action Now (MEAN). "We have been advocating for relocation for years and know that the only way the plan can work is to meet the needs of Mossville residents, who suffer from industrial pollution that make us sick and ruin the value of our homes."
"Our prior work on a successful community relocation offer between the Diamond community of Norco and the Shell Corporation in 2000 provides important lessons on how a community and an industrial company can reach agreement on future industrial operations, the terms for relocation offers, and programs for community improvements," explains Monique Harden, attorney with Advocates for Environmental Human Rights (AEHR), which represents Mossville residents and MEAN in a case before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights that charges the U.S. Government with violating human rights by permitting toxic industrial releases in and around Mossville.
"While we have been clear that many Mossville residents, renters and owners, want to relocate to protect their health, it is important to understand what is motivating Sasol," said Felix.
In December 2012, Sasol announced that it would begin engineering and design work for a world-scale ethane cracker and a plant that converts natural gas from shale rock into diesel fuel, known as a "gas-to-liquids" or GTL facility. Sasol plans to build and operate the industrial facilities on a site near Mossville that takes up three square miles. Sasol boasts that the "estimated cost is between $16 and $21 billion," which represents "the largest single manufacturing investment in the history of Louisiana and one of the largest foreign direct investment manufacturing projects in U.S. history." Sasol has not made public the estimated pollution increase and potential risk of a hazardous accident from the proposed ethane cracker and GTL facility.
A third party contractor, Community Interaction Consulting, Inc. (CIC), will administer the Program, opening an office in the community in early August and they say they will launch a website to provide Program specifics, timelines and contact information. Sasol has said that CIC will host small group information sessions at the Program office for prospective participants around mid-August.
"Environmental health and environmental justice groups from all over the United States and the world are watching what happens in Mossville," declares Michele Roberts, with Environmental Health and Justice Alliance, "And we will stand by the people of Mossville until they are safely out of harms way from toxic chemical contamination. At this moment in time, Louisiana Senator David Vitter has proposed a bill for reforming federal chemical regulations that ignores "hot spots" or "sacrifice zones" like Mossville. We are demanding that Senator Vitter restore the "Hot Spot" provisions to the Chemical Safety Improvement Act to reform the Toxic Substance and Control Act of 1976 to truly protect communities such as Mossville from chemical hazard."

I gave this 3 stars. I liked it but the "bunch of little shits" annoyed me to much to rate it any higher.
I imagine them mugging the nurse again, as soon as the credits roll.

Dark Beauty
Thick clouds of interstellar dust form dark voids in the nebula known as NGC 281 in this recent image from Hubble Space Telescope. The clouds, which are known as Bok globules after the astronomer who first described them, are so thick that they absorb the light from stars or gas clouds behind them. NGC 281 is giving birth to new stars, which form from dense knots of material like these dark globules. [Credit: NASA/ESA/Hubble Heritage Team]

Nice Start For Claggett, Key Doubles For Ciriaco and Noris
MLB's winter meetings begin tomorrow (Monday). Stay tuned for news of trades, moves, shifts, Rule 5 draft, etc.
A few of Sunday's winter league games with Pirates' players and friends participating:
Cardenales de Lara 3, Bravos de Margarita 1 — Anthony Claggett pitched 4 innings in his start for Los Bravos, and allowed one unearned run on a hit and a walk in the night-cap of a double-header. The run came in the bottom of the 1st, when a single and a throwing error at third base put the lead-off runner on second base. A sacrifice bunt and an RBI ground out brought in the unearned run. After a walk, Claggett retired 10 of the 11 remaining batters he faced — he hit one batter with a pitch. Los Bravos scored their run in the top of the 1st, on a double, a bunt, and a sacrifice fly. Claggett left the game with the score tied. He was relieved by Edgar Martinez, who began the bottom of the 5th by allowing a walk, a sacrifice bunt, and a 2-run homer, which gave Lara the win.
Aguilas de Zulia 6, Tigres de Aragua 1 — SS Ronny Cedeno and CF Lastings Milledge each had a single in the 8th inning, and Milledge also walked in the 4th, but neither came around to score in Los Tigres' loss. Aragua's only run was scored in the top of the 9th, on a triple and an RBI single. Zulia scored their 6 runs on 13 hits, scattered over 5 of their 8 at-bats. C Raul Chavez, C Miguel Perez, and pinch-hitter Jorge Cortes were all hitless for Los Tigres.
Leones del Caracas 8, Navegantes del Magallanes 4 — Corey Hamman pitched a scoreless inning for Los Navegantes in their loss. Caracas had already scored 2 runs in each of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th innings, and Los Navegantes had scored a pair of runs on a 2-run homer in the 4th and one more run in the 7th on a double, a single, and an RBI ground out. The first batter in the top of the 8th was hit by a pitch, and Hamman entered the game with that runner on first base. He gave up a walk but retired three batters to get out of the inning without allowing a run to score. Los Navegantes scored one more run in the bottom of the 9th on a hit batter and two singles, but it wasn't enough.
Claggett Wins Again; Singh Reappears
A few signing notes for some former Pirates — LHP Phil Dumatrait has signed a minor league contract with the Twins, and LHP Neal Cotts has signed a minor league contract with the Yankees. OF Rajai Davis was traded from the A's to the Blue Jays.
Sunday's winter league action involving a few Pirates' players and friends:
Aguilas Cibaenas 12, Tigres del Licey 1 — A 6-run 1st inning put the game into Los Aguilas' pocket right from the start. Starling Marte came into the game in the 5th inning as a pinch runner (he didn't score), then remained in the game in left field. He flied out in the 7th, then hit an RBI single in the 8th. Denny Bautista was one of the few Licey pitchers who held Los Aguilas scoreless, as he threw a perfect top of the 9th for Los Tigres. Indy area native Jake Fox went 0-for-4 for Los Tigres.
Tiburones de La Guaira 6, Tigres de Aragua 2 — Los Tiburones scored 5 runs over the first 3 innings, and Los Tigres could only manage 2 runs. In the top of the 1st, SS Ronny Cedeno followed a lead-off single with a sacrifice bunt, then another single brought in the first Aragua run. Their second run came in the 6th inning, when Cedeno led off with a double into left field, and a few minutes later, 1B Hector Gimenez doubled into right field, bringing in Cedeno. C Miguel Perez came in as a defensive replacement behind the plate, but flied out in his only plate appearance. CF Jorge Cortes went 0-for-3 with a walk. Former Pirate pitcher Chris Hernandez pitched the top of the 9th for La Guaira. He gave up a walk, but then got Cortes to bounce into a double play to end the game.
Cardenales de Lara 7, Navegantes del Magallanes 2 — Los Navegantes were also only able to put up 2 runs, one in the 2nd, and one in the 7th. SS Argenis Diaz contributed one of Los Navegantes' 5 hits, but he did not score. Corey Hamman pitched the 7th inning for Magallanes, and he gave up a solo home run.
Bravos de Margarita 2, Aguilas de Zulia 1 — Anthony Claggett won his second game in two days for Los Bravos, this time with one scoreless inning of work (it was 1.1 innings yesterday). Los Bravos scored one run in the bottom of the 4th on a double, a single, and a grounder. Los Aguilas tied the score in the top of the 6th, also with a single and a double. Claggett took the mound to begin the 7th. He gave up a lead-off single, then retired the next three batters he faced. In the bottom of the inning, Los Bravos scored the go-ahead run on a single, a bunt, a wild pitch, and a sacrifice fly. That made Claggett the pitcher of record. Ronald Belisario pitched a perfect 9th inning for Margarita to collect his 10th save of the season.
Claggett Takes A Loss; Homers For Cedeno And Gimenez
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Everyone has probably seen that Zach Duke has been traded to Arizona for a player to be named later.
Also, former Pirate Bryan Bullington, who was removed from the Kansas City Royals' 40-man roster last week, was released by the Royals yesterday. Then Bullington signed a contract to play in Japan for the Hiroshima Toyo Carp for 2011.
Cheering for Pirates' players and friends in the winter leagues on Wednesday…..
Tiburones de La Guaira 4, Bravos de Margarita 1 (Game 1) — This was supposed to be a 7-inning game, but the score was still tied at 1-1 after 7. A bases-loaded walk forced in Los Bravos' run in the bottom of the 1st. Los Tiburones tied the score with a run on a single, a ground out, and another single in the 3rd. Anthony Claggett had pitched a scoreless 7th inning — he gave up a single, but then picked the base runner off first. But he started the top of the 8th with a single and a sacrifice bunt, and was then relieved. The next pitcher loaded the bases with a pair of walks, then he was relieved too. Two singles and a sacrifice fly brought in 3 runs for Los Tiburones, with the first one charged to Claggett, making him responsible for the loss. Margarita won the second game 3-0, holding Los Tiburones to just 3 hits in the 7-inning game. Former Pirate farmhand Ronald Belisario allowed one of the hits along with a walk in the 7th inning, earning his 8th save.
Tigres de Aragua 7, Navegantes del Magallanes 5 — Both SS Ronny Cedeno and 1B Hector Gimenez hit 2-run homers for Los Tigres in this win. Gimenez's blast got Aragua going in their 4-run 1st inning, and Cedeno's homer made the score 6-1 in the 2nd inning. Gimenez also doubled in the game. CF Jorge Cortes walked and scored for Los Tigres, and C Raul Chavez was 0-for-3 at the plate.
Venezuelan League Round-Up
A quick look at what some of the Pirates' players and friends were up to in the Venezuelan League recently:
Anthony Claggett joined Los Bravos de Margarita, and has made two relief appearances. On the 17th, he pitched one inning, giving up only a 2-out double, then finishing the inning with a groundout. On the 21st, Claggett pitched 2 innings and allowed only a single to former Indy Indian Jorge Cortes, who he then erased in a double play.
Los Tigres de Aragua got two hits each from1B Hector Gimenez, SS Ronny Cedeno, and C Raul Chavez on the 17th. Unfortunately their only run in the game was Gimenez's solo home run. Brian Bass made the start for Los Tigres on the 19th. He pitched 5 innings and gave up 4 runs — one run on a pair of singles and his own throwing error in the 1st inning, and 3 runs on a homer then two walks and 3 singles in the 3rd. The score was tied when Bass left the game. Lastings Milledge contributed a 2-run homer for Los Tigres in the 1st. Aragua won the game in the bottom of the 10th on a walk-off RBI single by Cortes.
Also on the 19th, Sean Gallagher suffered his third loss of the season for Los Navegantes. He pitched 4 innings against Los Aguilas del Zulia and gave up 4 runs on 8 hits. In the 3rd inning, he allowed a 2-run homer, then in the 4th, Gallagher gave up 2 more runs on a walk and 3 singles.
Justin Thomas earned the win (his first in Venezuela) for Los Bravos de Margarita on Saturday the 20th. He was first charged with a blown save when he gave up a solo home run in the bottom of the 7th to Los Navegantes del Magallanes. But he was then credited with the win when Margarita hit a 3-run homer in the top of the 7th. Corey Hamman also was charged with a blown save for Magallanes in that same game, when he faced 3 Margarita batters in the 5th inning and gave up a homer, a single, and a double. Jean Machi pitched the top of the 9th for Magallanes and got three ground outs.

Who won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress last year?
Who was Best Actor two years ago?
Can't remember? Neither could I. Neither could anyone in my family.
Because for all the hoopla that surrounds the Oscars every year, at least in the entertainment press, a collective amnesia descends upon the country about 48 hours after the Oscar ceremony ends.
No one remembers a thing beyond a vague recollection of Joan Rivers making fun of what people wore.
I do recall that Jennifer Lawrence won the Best Actress award last year. That's partly because she tripped and fell on her way to the stage, and partly because I have a huge crush on her.
You're thinking she's far too young for me, and to the small, superficial mind that may be true. But look at it this way — when she's 50 I'll be a mere 89. Not even 90!
It's a match made in heaven.
But back to the Oscars. The march to the awards has become almost as long and convoluted as a presidential election, although the people are far better looking. Like Jennifer.
And the new "weighted" voting process, which was apparently designed by rogue IRS agents, is insanely complicated.
None of that stops folks from "Entertainment Weekly" and "Variety" speculating about the next Oscars almost as soon as the previous ceremony drags to an end.
Then there's a long, long series of awards — The Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild, Director's Guild, British Academy of Film and Television Arts — whose sole purpose appears to be to fuel even more fevered speculation about the Oscars.
"Gravity" is the shoo-in. No, it's "12 Years a Slave!" No, slavery is too much of a downer for Oscar voters, "American Hustle" is the odds-on favorite.
As the Oscars approach, arcane calculations begin to flourish.
Will Woody Allen's ugly family issues hurt Cate Blanchett's chances, just because Woody wrote and directed her movie?
Is it better to lose 40 pounds for a role, like Matthew McConaughey in "Dallas Buyers Club," or gain 40 pounds, like Christian Bale in "American Hustle?"
For another five days the Oscars will generate enough hot air to levitate the Superman building and then — poof! — it all goes away.
Perhaps that's not a bad thing. If all your precious brain cells were occupied remembering who won every Oscar since 1929, there would be no room for truly important information, such as Red Sox batting averages.
I hope the Oscar winners themselves remember winning. I'd hate to think of Meryl Streep looking at all those golden statutes on her mantel and thinking "What the heck are these things? Bookends? Doorstops?"
For the rest of us, it's OK to let go. Think of those Oscar memories like cotton candy — not meant to last.
And, in case you were wondering, Anne Hathaway won Best Supporting Actress in 2013 for "Les Miserables." Jean Dujardin won Best Actor in 2012 for "The Artist."
Now forget about it.

Watch an Honest Trailer for The Notebook
Today is St. Valentine's Day, a day when every spoken sentence ends with a suggestion to watch The Notebook. (If Necco smartened up, they'd make a zillion bucks with "Watch The Notebook With Me" candy hearts.) But what is The Notebook really? Sure, it was the birth of Rychel McGasling, but according to the Honest Trailer folks, otherwise it's just the "Olive Garden of love stories." See what else they took to task. Don't worry: Ryan Gosling takes off his shirt a bunch. Do worry: Rachel McAdams makes a weird slurping sound a bunch.

I am looking for fabric that looks like a quilt. I saw a pair of curtains in a magazine some time ago and the fabric looked like a quilt. Does that make sense? Anyway, I don't know where to look to find fabric with this design. Does anyone have any thoughts on this for me? Thanks for your help. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Are you referring to fabric that has a pattern on it that looks like a quilt or fabric that is sandwiched with batting and backing and quilted together already? Either can be purchased at Joann Fabric stores. Dianne |

Sometimes it is refered to as "cheater quilt" or "cheater fabric" - that might help you in your search. Check quilt shops or fabric stores...also eBay has a lot. |

Sfouf: Lebanese yellow cake
This is not one of those fancy cakes.
This is not the sort of cake you'd make to a birthday or an anniversary or that sort of events (although no one says you can't).
It's the sort of cake you'd eat in the middle of the week, with a cup of teas (or coffee) after lunch, in an afternoon while sitting on z balcony while empty lunch plates await unwashed but you don't care about all of that. Because you have this cake to enjoy.
Once you take the first bite, you'll quickly forget the hardships you probably had all day so far, you take a second bite then sip a little tea, you take a deep breath and close your eyes.. You are now relaxing. Albeit for 10 seconds buts ok.. One bite after another, when you finish your serve yourself a second piece, perhaps its because this cake was a breeze to make so you are not subconsciously outraged with how difficult the cake was to make.
No this was an easy one. A break from all things difficult life threw at you because at the end of the day, a good day is measured by how good dessert was.
Sfouf is a Lebanese yellow cake, its made using semolina and turmeric powder. This recipe is my mom's easy peasy fool proof way to make it. My mom always says if a Lebanese lady can't make sfouf, then she can't cook anything. It's not that my mom has super high standards, its just that making sfouf is very simple than no one can mess it up. Even me.
In some parts of Lebanon, some like to add anise to their sfouf. I grew up with a mom who didn't add it, but if you prefer, add a teaspoon anise to the batter.
The pan must be coated in tahini. Traditionally tahini is spread to coat the baking dish, but if you're out of tahini or can't get your hands on some, go ahead and use butter / flour. It will not taste the same (you'll loose the nutty sesame aftertaste) but hey, its still cake even without the tahini.
A few notes about the recipe:
- The recipe call for two kinds of semolina, coarse and fine (or superfine), if you can't find the coarse, substitute it for cornmeal
- I've used this individual brownie pan to bake the sfouf. I got it from lakeland. Although the tahini was pain to clean afterwards, I loved that I did not have to bother with slicing this dessert into the perfect diamond shape. Am a perfectionist, so not having to worry about the slicing made things much easier for me.
- If you prefer, these can be baked in a cupcake pan. They'll make an excellent grab and go muffin. Baking time is 25 minutes. Yields 24 cupcakes.
This is my mom's recipe for making sfouf. Its basically so easy and fool proof that even I can do it.
- 2 tbsp tahini (for the pan)
- 2 cup (300g) fine semolina flour
- 1 cup (150g) coarse semolina flour
- 1 cup (130g) all purpose flour
- 3 tbsp dry milk powder (not liquid)
- 3 tsp turmeric powder
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 2 cups (500 ml) water
- 1 cup (250ml) sunflower oil
- 2 cups (400g) white sugar
- sliced almond (or pinenuts / walnuts) to garnish
- Preheat oven to 180C / 350 F / Gas mark 4. Spread the tanini paste on a large oven proof pyrex dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the two kinds of semolina, flour, milk powder, turmeric, and baking powder.
- In another bowl, combine the water, sugar and oil. Mix until the sugar has dissolved.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry. Mix with a spoon or a whisk until combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Arrange the almonds (or other nuts) in rows, or if using a cupcake pan, place one almond on each cupcake.
- Bake for 35 min, or until a skewer inserted in the center come out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack. Once cold, cut into diamond shapes and serve. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
Even if you've practically never set foot in the kitchen before, let alone bake a cake, this recipe is for your. This is the easiest, most basic, fool proof dessert that you'll ever make. I know you think am being biased because am Lebanese, and this is a Lebanese cake, but you'll just have to take my word for it and then you'll thank me for being right.
This post is part of my cake of the month project.
Previous cakes I've made in the cake of the month project:
- January, Swedish Saffron Cake.
- February, Mexican chocolate cakes.
- March, Kuwaiti Cardamom & Saffron Cake.
- April, Tunisian Citrus Almond Cake
- May, Coconut Basbosa
Voila, we've reached the end of this post for sfouf. I hope you get the chance to bake it and more importantly enjoy it.

Available costumes! Yay! Shot Meg with this silly kimono because the silly pink boots didn't fit. Got some over-exposure and cross over in this set, in addition to some scratches.

Okay that link that Beck60 gave us... that looks A LOT easier than the way I did it! Are the eggs still easy to separate, the yolk from the white? Has anyone tried it this way? I'll have to try that next time instead (if I don't have the pasturized egg whites on hand).Thanks!

CALHOUN, Ga.–Satya Tiwari, president of Surya, was recently named to the 2012 Atlanta Business Chronicle's "40 Under 40" list.
The publication's "40 Under 40" honors the accomplishments of Atlanta's most successful young professionals. Honorees must demonstrate leadership, professional achievement and community service. This year more than 500 nominations were received for the award and winners were selected by a committee of former 40 Under 40 alumni.
Since joining his father's company, Surya in 2004, "Tiwari has grown the business twenty-fourfold and made the brand a recognized leader in the rug and home accessories industry," Surya said in a statement. The company has achieved double-digit growth in seven of the last eight years, Surya added, and is also deeply dedicated to community stewardship. Today the brand is partnering with nonprofits East Meets West and the Akshaya Patra Foundation—which provide food and other life-changing resources for impoverished youth at schools across Vietnam and India.
"I am thrilled to be a recipient of this year's 40 Under 40 awards—and finding myself in the company of so many other successful young professionals here in the Atlanta area," Tiwari said.
Tiwari and all other 40 Under 40 recipients were recognized at an awards dinner held last month at the Atlanta History Center.

Patch 3.3.3 PTR: Updated patch notes {WoW}
Mar 11th 2010 4:19PM Warriors are the weakest class in PvP atm. Each class has its own defining ability that make it unique in pvp. Hunters get double deterrence and disengage, DK's will have uncleansable diseases, AMS, DG, pally's get bubbles or instant full heal, rogues have vanish, cloak, killing spree, etc. What do warriors have in pvp that another class cant come in and do better? Mortal Strike, get a hunter for that. The warriors mobility? Easily countered by disengaging hunters, dg from a dk, blink and frost nova from a mage. With a bladestorm, an arms warriors defining skill becoming useless, there is no reason to have a warrior in arenas over other classes.
Patch 3.3.3 PTR: Updated patch notes {WoW}
Mar 11th 2010 10:14AM Bladestorm has a 1.5 minute cooldown. Both warriors and rogues have a disarm with a 1 min cooldown. Which means that every bladestorm can be disarmed, leaving the warrior with no damage dealing cooldown. This nerf will destroy any viability of a warrior in arenas. Prot was viable in arenas and immediately got nerfed. Now TSG is the flavor of the month and they nerf warriors? While DKs get a HUGE buff by getting uncleansable diseases. Where is the counter to those diseases?
Dual specs at low levels {WoW}
Feb 16th 2009 5:20PM "if a player uses only one spec for 80 levels and then gets the dual spec feature, he/she may not have enough experience with different specs to have any clue about how to choose another one."
First, having the option to have a new spec at 80 is not going to be very difficult for the average player to cope with. By the time a player is 80 they should have rudimentary knowledge of how each spec/role plays. Back in BC I leveled by first character, a warrior, to 70 as fury, and then dove into tanking for the first time in heriocs. It was not very difficult to adjust to the different spec.
Second, during leveling the first 5-6 respecs are relatively cheap, so the need to have free spec changing is not really present. It only becomes necessary at level 80 where you might need to respec 2-3 times a week at 50g a pop.
So I agree with having dual-spec limited to level 80.

Brad talks about falling in love with Angelina, but fails to mention the fact that he was still married to Jen at the time! What's wrong with this guy?
It's really not a great week to be Brad Pitt. In the new issue of Entertainment Weekly – which arrived just one day after his controversial remarks about Jennifer Aniston in Parade came out — he has some interesting things to say about his marriage to Angelina Jolie. He refers to working together on Mr. and Mrs. Smith as "a great collaboration that turned into a greater collaboration."
That sounds like a perfectly nice thing to say — on the surface, at least — but do you really think it's wise for Brad to talk about falling in love Angelina while he was still married to Jen? We sure don't!
Brad also doesn't dismiss the possibility of working with Angie on a movie again. In fact, he jokes that they should only work together!
"We should be doing everything together," he says, while discussing his and Angie's rule about only one of them working at a time in order to be there for their kids. "Then we could work less. We could have more time off."
Click here to read Brad's original comments about his 'pathetic' marriage to Jen!
And click here to read his follow-up apology statement!

I would bet that all of you losers are probably still in high school or barely started college judging by the less than intelligent or life experienced commentaries. The man can SAY whatever he wants about his life because it is his LIFE to talk about. Anyone who sees digs toward Ansiton are just simpletons. People don't always work in a marriage and that does not mean there are good guys or bad guys. It ain't that simple. They grew apart and he moved on first. So sad too bad!
Posted at 7:09 AM on September 28, 2011
I love Angie and Brad being together and that Jen has moved on. But seriously,Brad Pitt just like insulted Jen ttm. I mean like seriously,it hurts. And I'm getting tired of the Jen and Angie war cos its getting old. I think we should just move on with our lives and let them be!!

Brad Pitt dont have personality ,no man talk like that about hi ex, he has been photos all over the world after the brake up, and Jennifer was so polite with that, so leave her alone,Brad Pitt just feel old man and he knows he not so interesting for Angelina Jolie like before, grow up

Pitt is blabbering about adoption of Zahara and his involvement. WHAT? Zahara was brought to the US in July 2004, which means Pitt's involvement with the adoption process that obviously happened before July 2004, while he was… yes… very much married to Jen. Pitt should explain to us how he was so involved with the adoption of Zahara when he were married to Jennifer?? That had to be awkward.

Wow, you really know how to manipulate a nothing comment into something it not. His comment does not in any way say that he fell in love with Ang or cheated while making the movie….. and none of us can know what really happened because we werent there. Leave them alone – theyve moved on, Jens moved on – get over it people.. and get your won life!

You need your feathers plucked if you think what Brad said or did was okay. I guess you forgot he was MARRRIED to Jennifer and CHEATED!! You can't help falling out of love or who you fall in love with but you can help your actions. As his wife, Jennifer deserved the respect of him closing that chapter in his life before taking up with angie or anyone else.
Posted at 3:35 PM on September 16, 2011
what a jerk! it is so fun that he says angie is a great mother! yeah right! he called her own girl a blob and now she is dressing her like a boy!!! what a great mother! the kids are so going to be screwed up…this will be hilarious to watch when they grow up…they will all be junkies just like their sick mother! Brad pitt you are a jerk and a puppet for the mentally sick angelina !

I got a $829.99 iPad2 for only $103.37 and my mom got a $1499.99 HDTV for only $251.92, they are both coming with USPS tomorrow. I would be an idiot to ever pay full retail prices at places like Walmart or Bestbuy. I sold a 37″ HDTV to my boss for $600 that I only paid $78.24 for.I use.
Posted at 11:37 AM on September 16, 2011
I can honestly say that I have lost all respect for Brad Pitt. As it was I thought he was a typical man thinking with his little head instead of his big head. Lets see, Angie has been open about her sexual lovin, whether it was with men or women, she loves to cut herself, looks like she does drugs. Brad looks like he loves booze and drugs. Were not the idiots you think we are Brad. Sure Ang goes to Africa or whatever looking all pathetic for "the kids". But seriously, we know it's because she is the kinky's woman you've ever known. That's how she controls you.
Posted at 11:10 AM on September 16, 2011
Just because he didn't know who he was at 30 when married to Jen doesn't make it her fault. We are all bumbling around trying to figure out who we are. Some get there sooner than others, but the only gage we have to go by comes from within. Yay for him for finally feeling like he has it figured out. Moving on. Moved on.

Version 2.8 Released
We have released the new version of IfByPhone. It hasn't been that long since we did a dot release, but, frankly, our developers are incredible. Full release details can be found on our support page. Here are a couple highlights:
* Scheduled & Emailed Reports: You can now schedule a report to run on any frequency you choose and select from reporting periods of previous day, week, month or year.
Tying things together
I'm a big fan of Social Media in general. Anything that can bring people together and help create interesting conversations has a great deal of value.
Time Entry Demo using IfByPhone IVR Survo technology
Our vision, stated here time and again, is that the phone is the best technology that small and medium businesses have at their disposal. Normally it is in the context of using our technology to drive more conversations (using Click-to-call, IVR applications, Virtual Receptionist, Voice Broadcast, etc).
Customer Service is a community
I was reading this excellent post by Paul Sweeney today. One of the things he touches on regularly is customer service. Today he mentions a couple websites I frequent: Summize and GetSatisfaction. Summize is a search tool for Twitter, and GetSatisfaction is a website that shows conversations surrounding particular companies and products.
With so many ways to publish information (Twitter, blogs, websites, Facebook, etc), it is becoming increasingly easy for consumers to let people know they're unhappy with a company. You've heard the expression that word of mouth is the best advertising? How powerful is word of mouth when you can press a few keys and complain about poor customer service to hundreds of your friends on the internet? How much damage can one unhappy customer do?
This can be a little scary for companies. But it shouldn't be. View it for what it is: an opportunity. Pay attention to your customers. You have all kinds of information about what they think about you and your competitors. Find it. Read it. But more importantly, act on it.
Call them. I recently had an experience with DirecTv, where I was close to canceling my account after being a vocal proponent for 10 years. When they found out about my unhappiness (via searching Summize), they called me. That phone call was more important than anything else they could have done. Someone with the ability to help me took a proactive step and called one of their millions of customers and had a conversation about how to make it right. Now that negative press I was giving them turned into a positive customer service experience and positive press.
As we like to say, the phone is the Rodney Dangerfield of technology. It gets no respect. But really, it's still the most powerful and productive technology that most business have at their disposal. So use social media and the internet to find out what your customers think. But follow up by the phone. Your customers want to hear from you.
A Better Tool Box
Recently in this space we've talked about the lack of interesting VOIP Applications. It seems that people all over are asking where the apps are. No less than Jeff Pulver has decried the lack of innovation in this space. At first, I objected to Jeff's post, saying that there were several companies doing interesting things (us being one of them!).
What is Voice 2.0?
In the last couple days, there has been bad news for a couple Voice 2.0 startups, Jangl and TalkPlus. There are people commenting on what this means for Voice 2.0: has the bubble burst? What does the future hold for Voice 2.0 companies?
I feel bad for the people at Jangl and TalkPlus. More or less, I've been in their shoes before. I know how it feels, and it's not pleasant.
But second, Voice 2.0 is poorly defined. I consider IfByPhone to be a Voice 2.0 company in at least some ways. But we are vastly different than both of these companies above and many other companies under the Voice 2.0 umbrella. IfByPhone is sitting in the middle of a convergence of several different marketplaces, Click-to-call, Call routing, call tracking, voice broadcast, and IVR being just a few of them.
So, I for one, am going to suggest that we stop calling every new telephony feature or company or widget Voice 2.0. Just becuase AT&T doesn't offer it to their residential customers doesn't make it part of the next wave.
For IfByPhone, I think the most appropriate term is Telephony Application Provider or TAP (I didn't come up with the term, but I think it fits). I think it's pretty clear that there will be a huge marketplace for companies large and small to integrate voice into business processes and existing business applications. And IfByPhone will be there at the forefront of that marketplace.
Version 2.7 Released
We released Version 2.7 last night. Below are highlights of the new features.
Some of the new features in Ifbyphone Version 2.7 include:
- The availability of local telephone numbers in all major US metropolitan areas. Customers will be able to select either toll free or local numbers for use with our Virtual Receptionist, Find Me, Survo and other inbound call routing applications.
- The Publish SurVo feature has been improved to allow for multiple logins for a single SurVo, as well as the deletion of SurVos that have already been published. The ability to edit the top portions of an active SurVo - e.g. everything above the questions, such as the email addresses, play beep at end of question and announce question count.
- The addition of a SurVo question type that allows a transfer to a Virtual Receptionist, Find Me, or Voice Mail.
- We will begin offering a new Audio Only Voice Broadcast with the ability to send out 25 simultaneous calls at no additional port usage cost.
- The ability to schedule Voice Broadcasts to run only on certain days of the week.
- The audio file maintenance tool now includes the approximate length of the recording in minutes.
- The ability to delete multiple audio recordings at once.
- Feature to automatically remove the beeps at the end of recorded Virtual Receptionist and SurVo prompts.
- The speed of many reports has been significantly enhanced.
- The addition of confirmation emails/receipts when signing up and adding additional items.
Some enhanced features for developers include:
- A new API for retrieving SurVo recordings as a streamed MP3.
- The ability to create Find Me's using the Administrative API.
- The ability to retrieve the Call Detail report via the API.
- The use of a click-to key or API key will be required on new accounts to increase security. Current accounts won't require this key, but we recommend you add it for additional security.
- Some additional parameters for Net Gets including dialed number and SurVo ID.

IfByPhone around the web
I wrote a guest post on VOIPSupply's blog. The post is about the Voice 2.0 market, how TAPs (Telephony Applicaiton Providers) are changing the market, and how VOIP companies in particular are able to take advantage of the functionality we provide.
Also, our Facebook app was reviewed:
And both Start Henshall and Andy Abramson weigh in on Irv's post about AOL + Jajah.

As previously mentioned in this space, we recently announced our PhoneMashup initiative aimed at getting developers involved with our product. Every day we're getting more developers signing up and doing interesting things with our services.
Squawk Box PodCast
Our CEO was the guest on the SquawkBox podcast hosted by Alec Saunders and Dan York.

Publish Survo results in Real Time
We recently released a new feature that I wanted to mention here. Now you can publish the results of your IfByPhone Survo calls on the web. The entire process takes about 3 minutes to set up. This feature will allow you to give a URL to your clients so they can log in and see how their campaign is working in real time.

Hollywood's A-listers brought vivacious color, embroidery, and sequins to the 2011 Oscar red carpet — perfectly in step with last September's spring fashion shows. And from Jennifer Lawrence's hot-cherry Calvin Klein to Sandra Bullock's vine-ripe Vera Wang, the color trend was clear: It was a red-hot night. But it was a classic presentation, at that. Gone were last year's ruffles and metallics, and back were clean cuts, linear shapes, and body-conscious luxury. It was a night for old-Hollywood glamour — although some pulled it off better than others.

Nicole Kidman donned a beautiful Christian Dior spring 2009 couture gown. But something wasn't quite right. Although stunning, silver-embroidered details covered the dress, I think Nicole's skin tone washed out the look. She makes so much of a better impact when she wears deep, rich colors. Nevertheless, there is something about the dress that keeps the designer in me looking a second and third time — although I attribute that to creativity and clear craftsmanship, and not how it looked on Nicole.


text: As much as the corporate world turns me off, the Disney Princesses and rom-coms of my childhood have left a lasting impression and my brain is wired to find men in suits extremely attractive. Artist Sam Shuter has created a vibrant series of larger than life paintings showcasing the strength of a suit in our society. While women's fashions change as often as the weather, the shape of a well-tailored suit is timeless, but Sam's color choices bring the suits to life in a fun way. She says, "[The suit] has represented something for decades; power, productivity, strength, economic prosperity, and hard work." As an artist, Sam embodies everything that she believes the suit represents. [Read more…]

I really like it. Zesty and fruity but subtle. I bought 2 bottles and since they are glass the scent stays well for a long time.
More reviews by takemyhusbandplz
Joyful bliss (yellow bottle) is an aura of sparkling orange and lychee blended with soft azalea blossoms. This one in the Collection is very nice, but it's just not me (azalea on my skin just doesn't mesh). This would be great on someone else.


text: I'm thrilled that someone is finally taking up this issue of Biblical interpretation in how faith is wielded as a sword in political elections. I hope that Barack Obama does not back down from this fight. The Sermon on the Mount is, indeed, a telling example of how folks will fight to post the Ten Commandments on courtroom walls but not the reinterpretation of said commandments by the Son of God in this sermon. Dobson is pulling back the curtain on his operation here... it's really all about money and power not Scripture. Dr. D will use this kerfuffle to send out more letters demanding more money in the name of Jesus Christ.

Wednesday, August 2, 2006 - Page updated at 12:00 AM Raise a goblet of blood wine: Klingon-centric DVD set is hereNewhouse News Service The Klingons have not yet vanquished the Vulcans, Andorians or Romulans, but they conquered "Star Trek" fans long ago. And if any man knows the alien warrior race, it is Michael Dorn — the Texas-born actor who portrayed Klingon Cmdr. Worf for 13 years on "Star Trek: The Next Generation," its spinoff "Deep Space Nine" and co-starred in five big-screen epics. Worf's bone-ridged visage dominates the cover of "Star Trek: Fan Collective — Klingon," a four-DVD set from Paramount Home Entertainment ($38.99) that was released yesterday. It contains 11 Klingon-themed episodes selected by online fans from the five live-action "Star Trek" series that aired between 1966 and 2005. Speaking from his home in Southern California, Dorn, 53, said he understands the appeal of Klingons. "As people, we like swashbucklers, the soldiers who are devil-may-care," Dorn said. "They have a real joy of life ... live fast and die hard." Dorn's own life changed when he first donned 3 � hours' worth of makeup in 1987 to play Worf. He credits the writers with much of Worf's appeal, saying they built upon the stoicism and simmering anger he brought to the character. "I was a fan of the original series. I knew the Klingons," he said. "Klingons are no-nonsense. There is not a 'How are the wife and kids?' [banter]. It's 'What do you want?' " Dorn is close with his former "Trek" castmates. He considers Marina Sirtis (Counselor Deanna Troi) to be his best friend, adding he went to the movies a few days earlier with Gates McFadden (Dr. Beverly Crusher) and was having lunch that day with Brent Spiner (Lt. Commander Data). Without his Klingon makeup, most fans fail to recognize Dorn when he is out in public.
It is a long shot, Dorn said, that there will be further adventures of the cast of "Star Trek: The Next Generation." Paramount has announced plans for a new film, which is expected to focus on other characters. "My gut reaction is that Worf is done," Dorn said. "Maybe they might do another TV series, but that is a very far-fetched idea." In recent years, Dorn has been busy as a voice actor in several cartoon series ("It's easy work. You come in your jeans and a T-shirt"). He will co-star this fall in "The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause" with Tim Allen. Still, he is proudest of his work on "Star Trek." "It's the most important, and best work, I've done," he said. The DVD set "Star Trek: Fan Collective — Klingon" is the latest in a series of fan-selected compilations. The box set includes the first appearance of the Klingons from the 1967 episode "Errand of Mercy." Dorn is featured in seven of the 11 episodes. Some fans may quibble over the choices, including Dorn. The DVD set contains a "Deep Space Nine" episode, "Trials and Tribble-ations," that Dorn dislikes. "It had Worf wearing a scarf over his head and it was 'cute,' " said Dorn, adding in a tone reminiscent of his Klingon alter ego, "I don't like 'cute.' " Copyright © 2006 The Seattle Times Company
