As the unhappy husband in Married Life, Harry (Chris Cooper) is banality curdled at the edges. He's a successful executive in 1940s New York whose life begins to unbutton when he falls out of love with his wife of many years, Pat (Patricia Clarkson), and into a fine, furtive romance with a younger woman, Kay (Rachel McAdams). His best friend, the roguish British expatriate Richard (Pierce Brosnan), serves as the movie's narrator and not disinterested observer. A well-groomed swinger, Richard begins to feel that a beautiful woman like Kay is wasting herself in the arms of the dowdy Harry.

With Kenya, the other cop in town, at the station, Adilyn warns her that the vigilantes are coming to arm up, and together with Wade, they start to hide the department's arsenal... but they're too late. The mob arrives and, in Kenya's words, tries "that NRA hillbilly bulls---." She knows more of them would have been killed last night if they'd been armed, but then, she's asked to think about Andy not promoting her as promised and about him giving less-experienced Jason all the real work. Is it because she's a black woman or just because she's not a lead character on the show? It's a smart card to play. Kenya goes to handcuff Adilyn, who Maxine had pointed out was a newborn the last time they all checked, and Adilyn fairy-zaps her. Adilyn and Wade are led away, and while Jessica can sense it, with it being daylight, there's nothing she can do. (Throwing your cell away was so stupid, Sookie.) Let the mob target practice/party commence. This is why you don't give these people guns, though that shot of Maxine practicing her trash-talk in a computer screen is perfection.
The search party finds Mary Beth's house and through cold pizza forensics, Jason determines that she was one of the last people attacked in the town 2.5 days ago. Everyone spreads out. Andy sees wedding photos and decides he's going to marry Holly because a man is nothing without family. Jason, in one of his tender moments, goes to comfort father-to-be Sam, who's in a baby's nursery. Sookie meanwhile reads some of Mary Beth's diary to Alcide while looking for clues. Mary Beth had also met a vampire, Henry. She fell in love with him, and he took her to Fangtasia. Sound familiar? (Sookie remembers the night she giddily dressed to go to Fangtasia on her "non-date" with Bill.) She reads about Mary Beth's sister and brother-in-law being taken and her wondering why she doesn't just give herself and the baby sleeping pills. Mary Beth hopes someone will still have the decency to not kill a baby. Alcide stops Sookie, but that's where the diary ends anyway.
Lettie Mae accidentally burns her wrist cooking, then purposely fries her hand so Willa can be talked into healing her with her blood. Doesn't part of you wish Willa, startled by being woken up, had killed Lettie Mae when she tossed her? As sudden as Tara's death seemed in the season premiere, how much do you really want this Lettie Mae story line dragged out? High on V, she sees Tara, wearing a white dress and a live snake around her body, hanging on a cross. Tara angrily speaks in tongues as Lettie Mae shouts that she needs answers.
On the drive back to Bon Temps, Alcide proves he really is a good boyfriend by telling Sookie that neither she nor Mary Beth is responsible for bringing vamps to their towns or making H-vamps. All Sookie is guilty of is falling hard and fast for her first love—and that makes her human. When Sookie says she's worried about their town following in the dead footsteps of Saint Alice, Alcide suggests they could just keep driving and save themselves. That's not the answer, Sookie says.

Plagiarism is the most prevalent ethics issue in scientific publishing, followed by research fraud. There's a method for resolving author disputes. And education in ethics and malpractice is critical in light of the massive proliferation of journal titles, some of which receive less oversight.
These were some of the issues discussed by an expert panel at Elsevier's Research and Publication Ethics webinar January 31, which drew 650 participants.
If you missed it, you can still participate by watching the recorded event. [caption id="attachment_17593" align="alignleft" width="120"] David Rew, PhD[/caption]
The first presenter was Dr. David Rew, Medical Subject Chair on the Scopus Content Selection and Advisory Board, former Editor-in-Chief of the European Journal of Surgical Oncology and a member of the COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) Council from 2008 to 2010. In his presentation "Ethics and Malpractice in Research Publications," he said a big problem is that the publishing process is largely built on trust, and education on ethics and malpractice has been weak. Another major issue is the massive expansion of journal titles and lack of oversight of these (illustrated in the slide below). [caption id="attachment_17594" align="alignleft" width="120"] Margaret Rees, PhD[/caption] Next up was Professor Margaret Rees, Secretary of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), Editor-in-Chief of Maturitas and Emeritus Reader in Reproductive Medicine in Oxford. Dr. Rees discussed authorship issues involving contributors, gift authors and ghost authors. (According to COPE, gift authors do not meet the criteria of authorship but are listed as a favor; ghost authors do meet authorship requirements but are not listed.) Rees emphasized that all author disputes must be solved and agreed upon by all authors. There are author flowchats on the COPE Website that helps authors with this process, as she showed in the slide below. [caption id="attachment_17595" align="alignleft" width="120"] T. "Sandy" Florence, PhD[/caption] The final presenter was Professor T. "Sandy" Florence, Editor in Chief of the International Journal of Pharmaceutics, Emeritus Professor of Pharmacy at the University College London Centre for Drug Delivery Research, who discussed " the plague of plagiarism," as he calls it. Dr. Florence demonstrated that better detection methods, more publicity of the issue, and the sheer increase in size in the academic community have made plagiarism the largest ethical issue in publications.

Posh Dollz Parties' mobile shindigs bring Hollywood glamor to kids living outside of southern California's sun-drenched borders. On-site party experts transform hosts' homes into venues for themed celebrations such as Posh Runway or Posh Spa Parties. During these 90-minute soirees, the party experts brighten faces with kid-friendly facials, oversee karaoke concerts, or polish nails during mini manicures. Glamorous extras round out the proceedings, such as photo shoots with props or chocolate fountains, which are ideal for snacking on or bathing pet pigs in.
Hosted by local artists, classes at Wine & Canvas Toledo are hosted at various restaurants and bars, and are designed to guide students through featured paintings from the monthly calendar. Following the step-by-step instructions of the teacher, pupils re-create the works of Impressionist masters, abstract scenes, and images inspired by nature. At the end of class, students can take their completed masterpieces home to display proudly on the wall or awkwardly on the fridge with industrial-strength magnets.
Instructor Denise Ellis combines her background in education with her training in Hatha, Vinyasa, and Ayurveda practices to offer students a variety of yogic opportunities. Awaken muscles and joints in gentle beginner's sessions designed to teach basic breathing techniques, fundamental poses, and advanced methods for protesting gravity. The postures that encompass the intermediate Hatha classes raise the bar for students' disciplines as the instructor adds more poses while emphasizing proper body alignment and introducing yoga philosophies into the mix. The schedule boasts both morning and evening classes to provide students with varying lifestyles a chance to downward-dog in a socially acceptable manner.
Prism GlassWorks is a full-service silica studio offering a wide range of elegant pre-made glass pieces, as well as hands-on classes and workshops for students of all experience levels. As a sneak peak of their regular fused-glass pendant classes—and with Groupon fun-seekers specifically in mind—the Prism proprietors have put together a special fused pendant-making workshop (many convenient times are available). During the two-hour session, you'll get to carry your innermost designs and aesthetic impulses to fruition, whether they are abstract conglomerations of color or miniature images of a beloved filing cabinet. After hand-selecting and combining glass noodles, stringers, and dichroic thingamabobs, you'll have created a raw pendant that's ready for the finishing flames of the kiln.
The staff members at Sylvan Learning's numerous study facilities understand that each child learns differently. Therefore, they don?t try to implement a uniform tutoring system; instead, they design custom lesson programs based on the results of standardized testing, diagnostic tools, and one-on-one interviews.
Tutors work with students from kindergarten through grade 12, illuminating topics ranging from basic reading and writing to remembering complex algebraic formulas without having them tattooed on your chest. Many of Sylvan?s instructors work in local schools, so they are intimately familiar with common curricula and understand how to gear lessons toward optimal results. After-school and summer classes can ready high-schoolers for the rigors of the ACT or the SAT, or they can help students to wow college-admissions officers with their superior essay-writing skills.
Though its name may conjure fantasies about sprinting down crowded streets or bench-pressing buses stalled in traffic, Urban Active Fitness grants its members abundant space in which to spread out and follow their workout proclivities. At dozens of locations across the Midwest and South, members can sculpt their bodies in whichever manner they choose—from personal training with resistance machines and free weights to group classes in cycling, Zumba, and Pilates. A number of group classes draw on the gym's urban theme for inspiration. Urban Iron, for example, focuses on building muscles that resemble the cast-iron beams of skyscrapers, and Urban Yoga closely imitates the poses necessary to squeeze onto a subway train at rush hour.

Former CFO for Sparks Door Lock Company Sentenced to Seven Years in Prison for $2 Million Embezzlement
Reno, Nev. – A Reno man who worked as the chief financial officer for Securitron Magnalock Corporation, an electronic door lock manufacturer in Sparks, Nevada, was sentenced today to just over seven years in prison for embezzling approximately $2.5 million from the company over a seven-year period, announced Daniel G. Bogden, United States Attorney for the District of Nevada.
Juan Ramon Cabezas, 56, of Reno, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Howard D. McKibben to 87 months in prison, three years of supervised release, and a $50,000 fine. Prior to sentencing, Cabezas also paid a restitution settlement to his former employer for $3.5 million. Cabezas pleaded guilty in October 2011 to mail fraud, tax evasion, aggravated identity theft, money laundering, and bank fraud. He must report to federal prison by June 4, 2012.
"As indicated in this case, if you commit a federal financial crime such as embezzlement or bank fraud, you could go to prison for a very long time," said U.S. Attorney Bogden. "The investigation and prosecution of these crimes are a priority in the District of Nevada."
According to the court records, as chief financial officer, Cabezas had complete control over the financial activities and accounting functions of Securitron Magnalock Corporation. According to Securitron's website, the company is a subsidiary of Assa Abloy, a Swedish door security company with over 30,000 employees worldwide. From about May 2003 to early 2010, Cabezas embezzled approximately $2.5 million from his employer. Cabezas accomplished this by making false entries in the company accounting system and generating checks payable to a personal retirement account, and by forging checks. Some of the funds Cabezas stole were used to purchase a residence in Reno and Assa Abloy, Inc. stock. Between 2004 and 2009, Cabezas also failed to report any of the stolen income on his federal income tax returns. The resulting tax loss to the federal government for those years was approximately $882,532.
This law enforcement action is sponsored by President Barack Obama's Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force. President Obama established the interagency Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force to wage an aggressive, coordinated and proactive effort to investigate and prosecute financial crimes. The task force includes representatives from a broad range of federal agencies, regulatory authorities, inspectors general, and state and local law enforcement who, working together, bring to bear a powerful array of criminal and civil enforcement resources. The task force is working to improve efforts across the federal executive branch, and with state and local partners, to investigate and prosecute significant financial crimes, ensure just and effective punishment for those who perpetrate financial crimes, combat discrimination in the lending and financial markets, and recover proceeds for victims of financial crimes. The case was investigated by the FBI and IRS Criminal Investigation, and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Ronald C. Rachow.

Aviat Networks to Showcase the Future of Backhaul Networks at Mobile World Congress
By Rajani Baburajan, TMCnet Contributor
Aviat Networks, a provider of wireless transmission solutions, announced it will showcase the future of backhaul networks that can support 4G/LTE (News - Alert) broadband services.
The new products, which will be demonstrated at the 2011 Mobile World Congress, will also include the recently announced next-generation hybrid and all-IP wireless transmission products.
Aviat's (News - Alert) new products will assist mobile service providers to address the cost, capacity and complexity involved with the network infrastructure evolution.The company is trying to address several questions involving the future of 4G/LTE deployments. Aviat is showcasing a number of products designed for the future generation networks.
The requirements for 4G/LTE backhaul capacity are overhyped, according to Aviat officials. Because of the over hype, operators are wasting huge money by running fiber to cell sites. Aviat Networks will explain how microwave exceeds the true backhaul capacity needs of 4G/LTE.
Since the evolution of mobile network to all-IP is a risky and complex process, Aviat Networks is developing solutions that will help simplify and lower the cost of this evolution.
Aviat will demonstrate WTM 3000, a fully functional Carrier Ethernet transport node in a true zero-footprint package. Another product from Aviat that will be on display at Mobile World Congress (News - Alert) is Eclipse IDU GE3. It is an ultra-compact indoor unit that combines the latest Carrier Ethernet networking and advanced radio features for hybrid TDM/Ethernet or all-Ethernet/IP wireless transmission.
Aviat will also display Eclipse DAC GE3, its new plug-in interface module for the Eclipse Packet Node platform. Announced in December 2010, DAC GE3 offers the most advanced Carrier Ethernet switch subsystem available in microwave backhaul today, according to company officials.Rajani Baburajan is a contributing editor for TMCnet.

Definitely an unusual gloss. Thicker and more pigmented than many, but a great color--kind of a bright, yet milky, cool coral frost. Sounds weird, but it fills a certain place in my lip wardrobe when I want to look a bit retro with a color that's both pale and rather bright, and something that will show up a bit more and last a bit longer than most glosses. The scent is noticeable but pretty nice.
More reviews by TheGypsyChicks
Not only did this feel weird on the lips but the color was something ugly... like a medium pepto-bismol pink color, I didn't see any gold in it either.
I am a FFF-cool toned and this gloss looks great on me! A nice shimmery medium pink. Not goopy or sticky but reminded me of a lite lipstick. I also liked the taste--fruity and pleasant. I a, anxious to try some other BeneFit l/g now. It came in a plastic tube packaging for shipping--neat idea!
I've only used this at the BeneFit counter and I'm glad that's all I did. The shade is very, very pink..Barbie-like, even. There's loads of frost and shimmer. I'm a MMM/GGG and it didn't flatter me too well. The consistency is really grainy and thick. I wouldn't buy this.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I don't mind the colour of this gloss: a nice milky barbie pink which can look ok.
But the texture is thin and somehow grainy on my lips, it does not last (even if you do not eat, drink or smoke, this stuff just fades away after about 30 minutes).
There are other glosses i prefer to this one for a lot less money.
I do not recommend Benefit glosses.
Love the girly shimmery pink color but hate the texture. It's way too dry to function as a 'gloss'. I have to put a clear gloss over it to get some shine.Just a little note, the color swatch on benefit official site is kinda misleading: The product itself is a lot pinker than what it is on the color swatch(which appears peachy pink). The price is a little steep for the amount of product you actually get. I received this in a swap and luckily I did, coz I might have splurged $10+ instead.
This golden pinky gloss WAS pretty but not my fave. I liked the texture but the color didn't work that well on me (it seems too warm and fake). What happened? I lost the itty-bitty tube. But I'd repurchase another color!
Finally the perfect bubblegum pink lip gloss!This has a hint of gold in it,so it worked on my warm toned skin.My only complaint,the texture isn't really glossy,but a little goopy and is hard to apply evenly,but looks great with some clear lip gloss on top!
I should've know not to trust those color swatches on Sephora.com. This is a semi bright pink. It's not too bad, though. I'm guessing this would be great for cool toned gals.

Former Montgomery County Police Officer Pleads Guilty to Illegally Accessing a Government Computer to Obtain Information
Used Her Police Powers to Inappropriately Access Law Enforcement Databases
More than 20 Times
Greenbelt, Maryland - Former Montgomery County Police officer Delores Culmer, age 37, of Silver Spring, Maryland pleaded guilty today obtaining unauthorized information from protected government computers for her personal financial gain or commercial advantage.
The guilty plea was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein; Chief J. Thomas Manger of the Montgomery County Police Department; Special Agent in Charge William Winter of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Homeland Security Investigations; and Special Agent in Charge Rebecca Sparkman of the Internal Revenue Service - Criminal Investigation, Washington, D.C. Field Office. The investigation in this case was initiated by the Montgomery County Police Department.
U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein said, "I am grateful to Chief Manger and the Montgomery County Police Department for their assistance."
According to Culmer's guilty plea, on at least 20 occasions from August 2008 to April 2010, Culmer, then a Montgomery County Police officer, used her police powers to access law enforcement databases to obtain unauthorized information. For example Culmer inappropriately accessed the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database, as well as the Maryland Inter-agency Law Enforcement System (MILES) database, to conduct wanted persons checks on her boyfriend, a person with whom her sister was having a dispute, and a friend of Culmer's boyfriend. Culmer also performed unauthorized registered motor vehicle checks on Culmer's boyfriend's brother and a person with whom Culmer's boyfriend was having a dispute.
Culmer faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Chief U.S. District Judge Deborah K. Chasanow has scheduled sentencing for June 13, 2011 at 1:00 p.m.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein praised the Montgomery County Police Department, ICE - Homeland Security Investigations and IRS - Criminal Investigation for their work in the investigation. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant United States Attorney Jonathan Su, who is prosecuting the case.

🌄Friday, May 9th
A new designer, Jesse Lindhorst, took the reins of the 30 Days of Biking aesthetic in 2014, and we're really proud of the creative he created. From a brand_new spoke card to a banner, flyers, handouts, and social squares, he really brought 30 Days of Biking to life! Enjoy his work. We sure did.
🌄Tuesday, May 6th
On May 3, 2014, we staged a flagship 30 Days of Biking wrap party, at Republic Seven Corners in Minneapolis, Minn. More than 200 people attended, Highchair Kings and Estate's DJ Power Mountain performed, and through boffo raffle ticket sales, we raised quite a bit of money for Free Bikes 4 Kidz! The party also included a pre_ride that met at Northeast Minneapolis' Recovery Bike Shop.
These photos of the proceedings are by photographer Mike Beck.
📄Tuesday, May 6th
This was Minneapolitan Jenn Stromberg's first 30 Days of Biking. Here's her comprehensive report on the results! Above photo provided by Freewheel Bike's Ben Hovland.
Well, I managed to bike MOST of the 30 days in April … (five days due to illness, being out of town, and general crappy weather fatigue excepted). AND I HAD A GREAT TIME DOING IT!
Here is some of what I learned/discovered:
The challenge to bike every day got me out on my bike usually for at least a half mile… even when it was snowing, raining, and/or barely above freezing. Days I never would have dreamt of biking before. Now I know that it's not as hard or inconvenient as I thought it would be.
I discovered new trails and further explored ones that I already knew about. I learned how great it is to live just one block off of Bryant Avenue, a bike boulevard, and how easy it is to get to LynLake from my house (I do spend an awful lot of time there, after all).
Biking every day served as a reminder of how much better I feel _ mentally and physically _ when I get outside and exercise.
I got stronger. I'm still not a fan of hills or wind, but I noticed an improvement in how well I'm able to handle them as the month progressed.
Group rides were a fun way to get to know new people and learn more about the Minneapolis biking community _ there were numerous ones planned for those taking part in 30 Days of Biking. I'd never done a group ride before (think 50_100 cyclists), but I learned that I really love them!
Using my bike to actually get places in the city _ instead of just leisurely rides around the lake _ raised my awareness of the challenges bike commuters face. Minneapolis is a relatively bike_friendly city, but being on the *other* side of the whole bikes and cars sharing the road thing was eye_opening. I am more patient and aware as a driver now. (But I still think cyclists should use Bryant instead of Lyndale whenever possible…)
And, while I don't weigh myself, I believe I managed to shed a couple of those inevitable pesky extra winter pounds _ well before summer has begun!
Will I keep riding? Yes! Probably not every day, but much more frequently than I have in the past. It's been an inspiring month!
Miles logged in April: 120 (!!!)
Also _ shout outs and big thank yous to 30 Days of Biking organizer Patrick Stephenson, and to my inspiration for participating in my first ever 30 Days of Biking _ Lincoln Scully!
📄Monday, May 5th
April may be over, and 30 Days of Biking with it, but that doesn't mean the spirit of our community of joyful cyclists is gone.
After all, 30 Days of Biking is bigger than just riding a bike. It's about bringing people together and being joyful — even in weird weather. Many people are continuing their 30 Days journey to see just how far they can go with only a bike. Others will continue to ride when they have time. We encourage you to ride whenever you can, and we love each and every one of you for doing it! Those of you who don't get to ride often, enjoy the heck out of it when you do.
If you're in search of a ride, and you also want a great dinner, we know just the right place to pedal (or drive, no judgment). It's our sponsor, the Red Stag Supperclub. If you've never been, go check it out this month. In 2007, Red Stag opened as the first certified LEED_Cl restaurant in Minnesota, serving contemporized supper club fare, classic cocktails, and an extensive beer & wine list.
They're setting an example for how restaurants can serve good food, support the environment, and brighten their community at the same time. They serve local and organic, if it's possible to find it from our local farmers and growers. In fact, it would be hard to find anything not local on the menu (unless you look at the craft beers we believe some of those come from out of state).
They have your typical drink specials too, Monday – Friday 3 – 6 p.m. and Monday – Thursday, 10 p.m. to close, Sundays 3 p.m. – close. And of course they have delicious late_night happy hour food specials available.
Got a hot date? Come on, we know you do! That bike isn't going to show itself off now, is it? Go visit the Red Stag on Tuesday nights from 5 to 10pm for their cheap date night special: a bottle of wine, 2 entrees, and dessert for only $32 per couple! Also, during May, to celebrate Preservation Month, the Red Stag is featuring a special Heritage Menu each week, highlighting an architectural era and style. Check out their website to learn more about it!
One last thing before we forget: In a perfect match with 30 Days of Biking, the Red Stag has a special that rewards safe riding and biking to their supperclub: "Safety First _ Quench Your Thirst!" Enjoy $2 tallboys when you wear your bike helmet on your next ride to the Red Stag.
📄Friday, May 2nd
Today's must, must, must_read is this 30 Days of Biking report from Eunice Chang.
"Background: My partner of 11 years, Seth Vidal, was killed in a hit and run in July 2013 while biking. Bikes have haunted me since, not just because he was an avid cyclist, but also because we rode a tandem, and it was 'our thing' for a long, long time. I have never really rode by myself, because I was never comfortable riding in traffic and I never learned to ride a bike until I was 27 (Seth taught me). It was time for me to learn how to rediscover joy on a bike."

Hi beatlehead. Careful about adding extra columns or rows as garf suggests a couple posts after yours. That of course would work in most spreadsheets, but the Compiler/Buddy macros may not function as expected if the data is moved around, included add/delete columns or rows.
Two suggestions:
1. Use on the existing stat columns that you don't use, to calculate or input the total bases. Basically overwrite those stats with a formula for total bases and then adjust your setup to point to that scoring category.
2. If you use fantasy points instead of roto, you could just apply the fantasy points scoring option to each of single, double, triple and HR to equate to your total base points.

On the 1's and 2's at the Scratch DJ Academy
Last night I was a DJ. To be fair, I always FEEL like a DJ, but yesterday was my first time actually kickin' it on the 1's and 2's. I paid a visit to Scratch DJ Academy in the East Village, where my new friend DJ Kraff instructed me on the ins and outs of being a good DJ.
Scratch DJ Academy, co-founded by the late Jam Master Jay, was formed in 2002 with the goal of bridging the gap between the art form of DJing and the masses. It is the world's first DJ and music production school, with academies in New York, Miami, Los Angeles, and on several different cruise lines, and teaches over 100,000 people how to DJ every year.
Kraff told me that the first step toward becoming a DJ is creating a good DJ name. Luckily for him, I had a long list of monikers up my sleeve, but to keep things simple, I went with my original nickname (and middle school email address, embarrassingly enough): DJ Andie Fresh. I scratched and danced as I learned what it takes to be one of the best. DJ Kraff even said he was very impressed with my skills. (Thanks, boo.)
You should totally check this place out: they have all kinds of courses available in DJing, beatmaking and mixing. I'm definitely going back to up my DJ game. Which is a good thing, since I still use that DJ Andie Fresh email address.
To check out an open house or schedule a lesson, send an email to email@example.com or give them a call at 212-529-1599 (New York), 888-725-5557 (Los Angeles), or 305-576-3868 (Miami).

MONTEBELLO, Calif. (AP) - Los Angeles County sheriff's officials are seeking a suspect who they say shot his estranged wife outside the restaurant where she works.
A sheriff's statement says 29-year-old Arthur Andrew Andrade of Tustin ambushed his wife Soria Esperanza in the parking lot of the Mexican diner in Montebello, arguing with her before shooting her several times in the upper body. The statement says Andrade, a 6-foot-tall Hispanic man with black hair and hazel eyes, fled in a dark-colored vehicle.
Esperanza was pronounced dead at the scene.
Sheriff's Lt. John Corina tells the San Gabriel Valley Tribune the couple was in the process of getting divorced, and she had gotten a restraining order against him.

Note to self: Never fall in love without seeing the price tag first.
I'm looking for something similar, without the border and white bits, for a guest bath. If you haven't seen Gnosis tile, take a look, it's unique and gorgeous, but also expensive. This one is $100 sq.ft. The look I'm after is small mosaic, not necessarily a pattern. Medium grayish color. Marble or stone, something slightly rustic looking. Price range, under $30 sq.ft. Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I really can't see the detail all that well, but see if this works for you. I'm planning on it for my upstairs bath, but go ahead - buy it all ;-) |
Here is a link that might be useful: Close, maybe?
I did a Google image search for 1x1 marble tile... |
Here is a link that might be useful: Silverado gray marble
Look for 1"x1" or 3/4"x3/4" bardiglio. Here's an example: |
Here is a link that might be useful: Bardiglio Mosaic
Thanks everyone, I think what I'm after is a really rustic tumbled look with 1"x1" tiles. I'm off to Colombia for a few weeks, the search will continue when I return, or who knows, maybe I will find something in South America. |

What is Child Protection?
Most children in our society grow up in a safe and protected environment.
Sometimes, however, a child may be harmed or mistreated in a way that is abusive.
All children have a right to be protected from harm and all adults have a role to play in ensuring that our children are protected and safe.
Safeguarding the welfare of children and young people and protecting them from harm from others is everyone's responsibility: therefore families, neighbours, professionals and members of communities all play a vital role in protecting children.

Richard Dawson known best for hosting the "Family Feud" and starring in "Hogan's Heroes" has died, ABC News has confirmed.
He was 79. He died Saturday due to complications from cancer. Dawson was born Colin Lionel Emm in Gosport, Hampshire England on Nov. 30, 1932.
"It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my father passed away this evening from complications due to esophageal cancer. He was surrounded by his family. He was an amazing talent, a loving husband, a great dad, and a doting grandfather. He will be missed but always remembered…," wrote Dawson's son Gary in a posting on Facebook early this morning.
Dawson had a small role in the "Dick Van Dyke Show," but his U.S. TV breakthrough came with "Hogan's Heroes," the highly-rated sitcom set in a German POW camp during World War II. It ran from 1965 to 1971.
After Hogan's Heroes was canceled, Dawson became a regular on "Laugh-In," and the "New Dick Van Dyke Show." He was also a panelist on the game show "I've Got a Secret," and subsequently on Gene Rayburn's "Match Game '73," alongside Brett Somers and Charles Nelson Reilly. But Dawson really hit game show gold when he was tapped to host "Family Feud," which he hosted from 1976 to 1985. After the show went into syndication, he returned to host the final 1995 season.
"Family Feud" became one of the most iconic game shows in TV history and Dawson himself became a household name, and earned the nickname "The Kissing Bandit" for his habit of kissing all the female contestants.
He ended up marrying one of those female contestants, Gretchen Johnson, who he met when she competed on the show in 1981. Together they had a daughter named Shannon Nicole Dawson. When he hosted the second run of "Family Feud" Dawson made a promise to Johnson not kiss anyone.
"I kissed them for luck and love, that's all," Dawson told The Associated Press at the time.
Dawson was also previously married to actress Diana Dors and the couple had two sons, Mark Dawson and Gary Dawson.
ABC News Radio and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Heck Of A Guy posts rarely feature a single photo unless it's a Lord Of Leisure Photo Gallery entry, and Heck Of A Guy rarely posts the same shots that appear on its sibling site, DrHGuy. This photo of Leonard Cohen in concert in 1970, however, is so striking and evocative that it warrants breaking both those shibboleths.1 Click on image to enlarge.
Credit Due Department: This image is adapted from a photo illustrating "Un Certain Sourire" by Hervé Muller, published in Rock & Folk, No. 92, September 1974. Found at Maarten Massa. Also, thanks are due Patyou, who identified this photo as being taken in 1970.
- OK, the image also required so much time in the Heck Of A Guy photo lab to render it blog-worthy that it became the post du jour by default. [↩]

Christopher Ranch now carries spring garlic
Gilroy, Calif.-based garlic producer/distributor Christopher Ranch has added spring garlic, also called green garlic, to its portfolio, said Patsy Ross, vice president of marketing.
Spring garlic is harvested before it can bulb, Ross said.
"It's pulled while the stems are green. It's similar-looking to a green onion," she said.
"It's very, very popular at the farmers markets and trendy restaurants."
Volume of the product is limited, but there should be enough to go around, Ross said.
"We're nowhere close to the 60 million pounds of fresh garlic we typically produce each year, but we do have good availability to where we'd handle all our existing customers," she said.
Spring garlic has no waste, which is a major appeal, Ross said.
"You can use the whole thing," she said.
"We've worked with chefs who have literally worked with the roots. It's completely edible, top to bottom. It's another way to get another interesting flavor. It's a super mild, fresh garlic flavor."
Coosemans Worldwide adds bag for herbs
Miami-based specialty produce distributor Coosemans Worldwide Inc. has introduced a new "micro-perf" bag for fresh herbs, said Lolo Mengel, co-owner and general manager of Jessup, Md.-based Coosemans D.C. Inc.
"We're beginning to find interest in it," Mengel said.
"It's still being researched, but the preliminary findings is the gas exchange is improved over certain clamshells, so we're hoping to extend the shelf life of the herbs at retail."
The breathable pack is offered in single-serve, quarter-ounce or 1-ounce units for any herb that Coosemans offers, Mengel said.
Californians celebrate Gilroy Garlic Festival
More than 100,000 people were expected to attend the 32nd annual 2010 Garlic Festival on July 23-25 in Gilroy, Calif., said Peter Ciccarelli, spokesman for the event.
The event had cooking competitions, live music, children's entertainment and food enhanced by 4,500 pounds of fresh California garlic.
Greg Bozzo served as the volunteer president.
"First and foremost, our primary sustainable resource is this community and the 4,000 volunteers who comprise the work force," Bozzo said in a news release.
The event raised $8.5 million for local nonprofit organizations.
Don Christopher of garlic producer Christopher Ranch co-founded the festival in 1979 to highlight local agricultural products.
The Great Garlic Cook-Off featured eight amateur finalists from across the U.S. preparing their submitted recipes.

The White House is getting attention recently for its efforts at X Prize style competitions—which makes sense since its 'assistant director for grand challenges' is a former X-Prizer. One of the challenges at the heart of that approach is its i6 Challenge—a $6 million competition that "seeks to develop Proof of Concept Centers and create a network of experts to support innovators and researchers; spur sustainable startups, small businesses, and new ventures; expand access to capital to fuel growth; connect mentors and education to entrepreneurs; and spark job creation."
The i6 Challenge is a multi-agency collaboration led by the U.S. Commerce Department Economic Development Administration's Office of Innovation and Entrepreneurship along with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF). Earlier this year, a handful of i6 winners visited Capitol Hill to share their progress.
Six winning teams will be announced in September, each awarded up to $1 million each to create and expand Proof of Concept Centers. In promoting the Challenge, EDA is holding up several existing proof-of-concept centers as shining examples: the Deshpande Center for Technological Innovation at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts; the William J. von Liebig Center at the University of California, San Diego; and the Stevens Institute for Innovation at the University of Southern California.
The application deadline is July 20, 2012—additional details are available at Grants.gov.

<Forlorn Legacy> Top Ranked US Guild LF Retribution Paladin
Moderators: Fridmarr, Worldie, Aergis, honorshammer

• Page 1 of 1
<Forlorn Legacy> Top Ranked US Guild LF Retribution Paladin
Forlorn Legacy of Windrunner (US-PVE) is a hardcore endgame raiding guild with strong roots dating back to Vanilla WoW. We exist and outlast other guilds due to a common bond and idealism we share, how we feel about playing this game. Our goal in this game is simple, "Attain US top 5 ranks, and have fun doing so". We currently raid six nights a week from 6-10pm PST during progression, and approximately 5 hours a week during farm content. As of now, we are ranked World 10th, followed by a US 13th ranking for ICC, with top 10-20 world kills on almost all fights this entire expansion. This level of ranking is not new to us, we have been scoring respectable kills since 2005, ever seeking to improve; that's five years of consistency and we don't plan on slowing down anytime soon.
Currently Seeking: An exceptionally talented Retribution Paladin
Applications from ALL exceptional players are also seriously considered.
We currently hold the US 1st Time Attack ranking on WMO for Icecrown Citadel http://www.wowmeteronline.com/rank/timeattack/9/0/3. Our roster is composed of top parsing players with regard to their respective classes and raid roles, this includes healing output, tank threat, and damage output. Each member on our roster has an average of 5 top 20 parses at any given time, with a lot of us maintaining top world parses. In short, we are extremely competitive and we expect you to challenge not only our players, but players all over the world. If you are not capable of achieving this level of play, this is not the guild for you. Attitude, determination, dedication, teamwork, and old-fashioned hard work are all expected of any applicant. If you are willing to put forth effort, fitting in will come naturally.
Forlorn Legacy has maintained realm first kills since our inception in early Vanilla WoW on the Windrunner realm (server first titles, anyone?). However, we gauge ourselves according to world ranked kills and playing as a team across the world level, the scope of this game for us falls upon that benchmark. We strive to achieve perfect play for the newest tier of content, while staying on top of our game farming the previous tier. We pride ourselves upon playing our respective raid roles to their maximum potential, and we perform them well. The feeling of downing an encounter as a team is what keeps us coming back, and is what motivates us to put in work outside of raids, as well as play to the best of our ability in raids. Our members know their respective classes as well as any player in any guild in the world, and we make damn sure that it doesn't change. When applying here, you sign up to raid with us going into Cataclysm and all future World of Warcraft Expansions, this will be your home.
When you apply with us, you will immerse yourself into our idealism of what raiding should consist of, simply put, to down the newest and hardest encounters first. We will point out your flaws, solely for the sake of improving not only our own, but your end game experience. Yes, we will critique you if you are not up to what the encounter demands. This critique is in your best interest; you will have no fun playing here if you perceive dedication to this game as a chore! You can expect to test all PTR content with us, see the hardest encounters first, raid with players of your skill caliber, and compete in a competitive atmosphere which breeds excellence. You will not feel like you are the only dedicated player in this guild. We have fun in this game and are very active outside of raid times; we want the same from you. If you don't enjoy this game as much as we do, are considering quitting, or if this is your "last shot" at raiding to see if you still enjoy it, then get the hell out and apply elsewhere. Waste their time, not ours. Forlorn Legacy is a community of players dedicated to yours and our own end game experience, and through this idealism, we are a community, still want to be a part of that?
In order for your application to receive an honest and fair assessment, it MUST have the following:
- Combat Logs
- Viable Raid Professions
- Maxed Raiding Reputations (Shoulder/Helm Enchants)
- Correct Gemming & Enchanting
- Correct Glyphing & Talent Specialization for your role in the raid
- Experience with hard mode encounters, and/or the most difficult encounters the current tier offers
- If you have all of the above, then gear should not be an issue
- We spend time to read applications that you spend time to write; we are truly excited and dedicated in the pursuit to find that perfect fit to our roster, you should be just as dedicated to writing your application.
Assuming you meet the above requirements, or submit an application at the website below. Please contact Balrouge, Thaelias, or Riggnaros on the Windrunner realm if you have any questions regarding the guild or our recruitment process.

Hey, just as a friendly bump, FL needs TANKS, since their current ones suck ding dong.
Thought I'd throw that out there, for anyone looking at getting into the hardcore competitive scene.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway pose half-naked for Entertainment Weekly to promote their new film, 'Love and Other Drugs.' The talented twosome simply ooze natural chemistry, with coverage on sex scenes, romance and their new movie in the accompanying article.
The racy feature shows Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway topless; however, the two are tastefully covered. Much speculation has risen since the release of the article as to whether or not the pair is an actual couple. Though they do look cozy together, both parties deny any actual romantic connection.

Couples celebrate Valentine's Day with "I Do's" in Fountain Hills
FOUNTAIN HILLS, AZ - If you're married and looking for something more romantic this Valentine's Day, Fountain Hills may have what you're looking for.
More than 700 married couples are expected to renew their vows at a ceremony in Fountain Park on Friday.
Greg and Bonita Jenkins are one of those couples. Greg said he surprised his wife of 5 years with the idea because of what she asks him nearly everyday.
"You can ask him. I ask him all the time. Will you marry me? Will you marry me again? He says yeah hahaha," said Bonita Jenkins.
Greg and Bonita originally met in Chicago in 2005. They met at a business meeting, but it wasn't really love at first sight.
Greg had another date at the party and Greg said Bonita put him in the dreaded friend zone.
"It ended up not working out with the other young lady and like Chris Rock says, once you're in the friend zone it's very, very hard to get out," said Greg Jenkins.
Jenkins said it took around a year but he eventually convinced his now wife.
Greg and Bonita got married in 2008 and have 2 daughters.
Love in the Hills is free to attend. On-site registration starts at 4 p.m. with the renewal ceremony itself starting at 5 p.m.
You can pre-register here: http://loveinthehills.com/register.html
Fountain Park is located at 12925 N. Saguaro Blvd in Fountain Hills

Distance Masters Program
Welcome to the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry!
John Stobaugh
We are very excited to offer a distance Masters program at the University of Kansas. This program features the same high-quality lectures and courses offered in our Ph.D. program.
This program will allow the industrial scientist, or the student at a collaborating institution, to remain at their respective venues, and earn the M.S. degree under a collaborative academic environment. I believe that you have made a great initial step in considering our Department for graduate studies.
The quality and impact of the Masters thesis project is something we take very seriously. We certainly expect and emphasize excellent performance in a rigorous set of core coursework offered by our program. If you are a highly motivated student, this will not be a significant obstacle to the successful completion of the program. In a distance Masters degree program, we would anticipate that industrial students normally would undertake one course per semester, while students in collaborating academic institutions may find it desirable to take several courses.
Once you have prepared a research proposal that is approved by on-site and distance learning advisors, students can conduct thesis research during the regular semesters and/or during the summer period. Students who complete the program will receive a Masters degree from the University of Kansas, but more importantly, will have developed those skills to help them become an independent research scientist possessing a solid scientific thought process and the confidence to handle new problems that they will encounter in their independent research careers.
I hope that you find our program appealing, and please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.
Director of Distance Masters Program

Shangri-La Hotel, Guilin
Guilin, Guangxi, 541004, China
With its dramatic landscape of winding rivers and limestone karsts, Guilin has inspired painters and travelers for centuries. But until Shangri-La unveiled this sleek property four years ago, there weren't a lot of hotel options. Thanks to its prime location along the Li River, all 449 rooms—kitted out with neutral-toned silks, dark woods, and classical Chinese murals—have stunning views of the surrounding countryside. It's the perfect base to explore the area. Ask the concierge about bicycle rentals or sign up for a 90-minute river cruise of some of the region's most famous sights, including Nine Horse Hill, and then cap the day with a hot stone massage at the spa. Need a break from sightseeing? The hotel's two swimming pools, state-of-the-art gym, and outdoor tennis courts provide plenty of diversion. Another highlight: Guilin specialties—including stir-fried river shrimp with leek and braised wild mushrooms with chile—at the hotel's Shang Palace restaurant. Some ingredients come straight from the chef's organic garden.
Room to Book:
The Horizon River View rooms on the sixth floor feature sweeping panoramas and club access.
Insider Tip:
Arrange a day trip to the dramatic Dragon's Back rice terraces, a two-hour drive from Guilin. Once there, be sure to pick up some pieces of elaborate embroidery by the Miao ethnic group.

108 Eaton to Evatt
Ministerial Dispatch 6/1948 BATAVIA, 19 March 1948
I have the honour to refer to my previous Despatch. [1] I saw Dr.
Hatta privately on 13th March, and he informed me confidentially that his talks with the Lieutenant Governor-General were confined to matters concerning a joint new currency, the future of the Republican armed forces, Republican overseas representation and sovereignty. Memoranda on these subjects will be submitted through the Dutch Delegation at the forthcoming talks with the Republicans. Participation of the Republic in the new Provisional Federal Government was not discussed. Dr. Hatta appears determined that the Committee of Good Offices will not be bypassed in any settlement move by the Dutch. This information was more or less covered by a cabled report by Critchley. [2]
2. The American representative on the Committee of Good Offices, Mr. Coert Dubois, told me privately that he had done all he could to persuade Dr. Hatta to have the Republican Government join up with the Provisional Federal Government. Mr. Dubois, I think, is inclined to lean towards the Dutch point of view.
3. The Representative Council of East Sumatra was inaugurated at Medan on 15th March, 1948, in the presence of the Lieutenant Governor-General and military and civil officials from various parts of the archipelago. From well-informed sources I have the information that all 'is not too good' in East Sumatra and that the 'Republican feeling' is still very strong. I hope in the near future to obtain sufficient details for a full report.
4. It seems quite probable that East Sumatra in the future will coincide with developments in East Indonesia and West Java and that Republican sympathy will bubble to the surface. With regard to East Java and South Sumatra, Republican sympathy appears at the present time too strong for firm endeavours to be made by the Dutch to establish new States in these areas.
5. In spite of the previous paragraph the Dutch, backed by their +100,000 army, are in a strong position compared to the Republic, who on their side have only a weakly empowered Committee of Good Offices. There is no doubt of the hatred of the Dutch towards the Republic for having forced the present political issue or the antagonistic feelings of the Dutch towards Republican sympathisers. From this can be seen how difficult the future talks will be.
6. The Dutch seem determined to remain, if they can, in control, and to get what they can out of Indonesia for an X number of years, and at the same time to give some measure of self- Government and independence to Indonesia, and will go to great lengths to obtain American and British backing for this policy.
7. In connection with the previous paragraph it is of interest to note the following press release:
'BATAVIA, March 15. According to the N.E.I. Foreign Exchange Institute, it is possible to transfer, after deducting the necessary taxes, profits made by estates or concerns working in this country to the country of origin of the invested capital.
It should be remarked that profits which can be considered as not being made under normal conditions, do not fall under this category. Furthermore, transfers are permitted only to those estates or concerns which had made such transfers before 1st January 1940.
Applications for the transfer of profits made in the book years opened on or after 1st August 1946 can be submitted to the Institute, together with a copy of the Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account and all supporting documents.'
8. With regard to the future political negotiations in Indonesia, a fact which should not be lost sight of is the alteration of the Dutch Constitution to enable ratification of any agreement reached on the 'Renville' principles. Schuurman, the Head of the Far Eastern Office, told me recently before he left for The Hague that the alteration of the Dutch Constitution would prove most difficult and required a two-thirds majority of Parliament. He seemed to think that the only solution would be the formation of a National Coalition Government after the elections in Holland in June. A bitter fight is expected over the Indonesian question.
9. The position regarding Raden Abdulkadir, the Deputy Lieutenant Governor-General, is interesting and it may be a fact that he has now outlived his usefulness to the Dutch. His appointment as Head of the Dutch Delegation has been obviously nominal only.
Abdulkadir informed me a few days ago that he needed a rest but that of course it would not be possible for him to take a long holiday as it was most important for him, an Indonesian, to be part of the Dutch Delegation for language and general understanding of the Indonesian problem.
10. Without any prompting, Abdulkadir also told me that he had come to an understanding with Dr. Hatta, but during my conversation with Dr. Hatta. he did not confirm this, except to state that any understanding may have been with regard to a minor matter.
11. There are strong rumours that the Deputy Lieutenant Governor- General may be packed off to Bangkok as Dutch Ambassador.
12. The Doyen of the Consular Corps in Batavia, Mr. Tsiang the Chinese Consul-General, at the request of the Consular Corps interviewed the Head of the Far Eastern Office to ask the reason for the Consular Corps not being invited to the inauguration function of the Provisional Federal Government. Schuurman informed our Doyen that when the matter first came to his notice he, with Dr. van Vredenburch, went to see the Lieutenant Governor-General and after an hour's argument in favour of the Consular Corps being invited, Dr. van Mook's opinion that the occasion was not significant enough still remained, and he proved too obstinate to change his mind.
13. Last night I dined with the British Consul-General and Mr.
Scrivener, who is to be the Political Advisor to the Governor- General in Malaya. Scrivener, who is on a short visit to Batavia, seems to be an open minded type of man, is looking forward to his task in Singapore and hopes to visit Australia at an early date.
He seems very keen for trade to be opened between Malaya and the Netherlands East Indies but said he was not yet in possession of the details of the progress of trade negotiations.

Breakfast Topic: Unpopular classes {WoW}
Jan 9th 2009 2:54PM It may have been said already, but from looking at the stats, it seems players are gravitating towards the more over-powered classes since the release of WotLK. Something else to consider, though.
Warlocks, Priests, Druids, and Mages got shafted when it comes to new abilities and talents. Their new abilities are anything but spectacular. Consider though, that when BC was released all these classes got amazing new abilities, while Rogues, Warriors, and Hunters all got the shaft.
There's also a nerf-bat coming to most of those overpowered classes (except Deathknights, sadly, who definitely deserve it).
In the end it all balanced out before, and it will again.
Ask WoW Insider: Instance running 101 {WoW}
Dec 2nd 2008 12:06PM A quick tip for healers:
use the smallest heal that's able to get the job done. Know how much each of your different heals is capable of, and don't over heal. Extra healing is just wasted, and adds to your aggro. For example, save your big, long cast heals for the tank. A simple flash heal or HoT should be sufficient for clothies. Something in the middle is likely needed for melee dps. Also, if a boss has a particularly hard-hitting attack, be prepared for it. If a tank gets really low on health, use your HoT, then a quick-cast heal, then a really big heal. This is guaranteed to keep your tank up longer. Remember...if the tank dies, 99% of the time, so does everyone else. Lastly, avoid using any sort of AoE heal unless it's absolutely necessary, as these draw enormous amounts of aggro.

State of the River Conference
The HooRWA' s 2012 State of the River Conference:
"Irene + 1″
What actually happened when Tropical Storm Irene hit our area, August 28, 2011? What relationship did the encounter have with Global Climate Change? How can we prepare for future storms? These are questions the Hoosic River Watershed Association's 2012 State of the River Conference addressed. The Hoosic is a three-state watershed, as the river flows through northwestern Massachusetts, southwestern Vermont and eastern upstate New York before joining the Hudson River at Stillwater. The river rose quickly to record heights and, with its tributaries, damaged roads, bridges and homes. The conference can be seen in three segments. Simply click on the titles of the segments to view the videos at Willinet.
"The Effects of Climate Change."Jerry Jenkins of the Wildlife Conservation Society and author of Climate Change in the Adirondacks: The Path to Sustainability," speaks on Climate Change and what happened in the Hoosic watershed. Although it is not possible to tie Irene directly to a warming climate, it is part of a pattern of unusual weather events that warming will continue to influence.
"The Aftermath of Tropical Storm Irene."A panel describes local effects. HooRWA's aquatic biologist, Kelly Nolan documents loss of biological life in the river. Carol Zingarelli relates a personal experience of losing a home in The Spruces Mobile Home Park. Rev. Carrie Bail considers the community's effort to respond though organizing Higher Ground. Bill Botzow gives the perspective of a Vermont state legislator.
"River Restoration Strategies"James G. MacBroom, a leader in the field of water resources engineering involved in post-Irene reconstruction in eastern New York and southern Vermont, and consultant on the proposed improvements to the flood control chutes in North Adams, addresses mistakes made and corrections needed.
