The redshirt freshman guard will not return to Hawaii next fall after being called to serve the next three years in the military in his native Israel. Lev had hoped to be able to delay his military obligation, but his attempt to petition for that was denied.
"The army is very strict and I'm not allowed to leave the country for the next three years," Lev said in a statement released by the school. "I had a great time in Hawai'i and I wish I could come back to play for a great coach and great teammates. Thank you for the wonderful experience and mahalo to everyone."
There is a chance Lev will still one day play for Hawaii should he choose to return once his military service is done in 2015. He will be an open recruit by that time, however, and may also have opportunities to play professionally in Europe.
[Related: Michigan State to play Connecticut on U.S. Air Base in Germany]
The loss of Lev is a damaging blow in the short term to a Hawaii program that has already dealt with its share of attrition this offseason. Hawaii coach Gib Arnold previously called Lev one of the most athletic players on his team and expected him to provide depth at the wing positions while honing his skills until they caught up with his natural ability.
"While we are disappointed that Orel won't be able suit up for us the next three years, we completely respect the military commitment he must fulfill," Arnold said in the statement. "There is no greater sacrifice than serving your country."

Docking marks return of tankers to Workington
Last updated at 20:20, Thursday, 15 March 2012
The return of tanker trade to the Port of Workington was marked with the docking of a vessel carrying bio diesel on Sunday.
The ship transported a cargo from Greenergy, Liverpool, to Cumbrian Storage Ltd's port depot.
The firm, which took over from Simon Storage Ltd three years ago, is the port's biggest tenant.
In recent years it had been using rail and road transport, but it has redeveloped its port depot for larger bulk storage.
A port spokesman said: "It is good to see vessels back in the port.
"It supports our aim to develop different types of business.
"We are a fully integrated port, with road and railway access.
"CSL has been finding its feet and hopefully, as the business develops, we will see more jobs becoming available."
The Vinga Safir tanker was due to dock yesterday to take 2,500 tons of used oil from Cumbrian Storage Ltd to Norway.

Jennifer Lopez Gets Hollywood Star | June 2013
J Lo Goes From "Jenny From the Block" to the Hollywood Walk of Fame
Jennifer Lopez received the 2,500th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame today and was joined by friends and loved ones for the long-anticipated celebration. After her star unveiling, the actress and singer cuddled up for pictures with her parents, David and Guadalupe; her sister, Lynda; and her twin children, Emme and Max. Casper Smart was on hand for his girlfriend's big-time recognition, as was Jennifer's good friend and music collaborator Pitbull. While Jennifer took the stage with Pitbull on Tuesday to perform at the Hollywood Bowl, today he attended the ceremony to speak about his friend's many great accomplishments. Jennifer's Monster-in-Law costar Jane Fonda and former dance buddy Keenen Ivory Wayans also spoke in her honor.
Jennifer's special star unveiling comes a day after she reunited with her ex-husband Marc Anthony to spend family time with their children. Her personal excursion was a breather from a busy month. Jennifer was overseas in early June to perform at the Chime For Change charity benefit in London, nabbed the humanitarian award at an amfAR gala last week, and has officially signed on to costar with Antonio Banderas in the Chilean-miner-inspired film The 33.

First Blog Ever!

Hello everyone, I'd just like to say that I'm glad I made the choice to stick with this account and continue to learn more about Gamespot. I've known the website for some years now, and I finally made an account just last June. Although I didn't spend any time on it, I'm now starting to realize how cool Fuse is and I'm certainly sticking to this profile for quite sometime. Why suddenly jump into Fuse? Well, I actually had just made an account on IGN (also named Emberhawk526, so go ahead if you want to follow since I spend a good amount of time on there as well) and I found it to be pretty sweet. So, I decided to give Gamespot a shot and I'm glad I did. Now enough of this, time to start gaming!

Terry Ryan of our Ohio offices offers a concise explanation of our Ohio 2009 Education Report Card Analysis in this video.
Ohio 2009 Education Report Card Analysis from Education Gadfly on Vimeo .
In February, during the heated political debate around Governor Strickland's education reform plan, I wrote an opinion piece for the Columbus Dispatch that argued the governor's attack on for-profit charter schools "would be a blow for needy children and families. For example, the top-performing elementary school in Dayton in 2008 - the Pathway School of Discovery - is a charter school operated by the National Heritage Academies. Does it make sense to toss 570 children out of a school rated effective (the only elementary school in Dayton so designated) solely because it is operated by a for-profit company?"
Fortunately for the families and children in the Pathway School of Discovery, the governor's attacks on charter schools were largely defeated by the Senate. I say fortunate because the school received its state report card this week and it was rated excellent (an A) by the state of Ohio, and it was one of only two schools in the city with a top academic rating (the other being the charter high school DECA).
In Ohio, we simply have too few schools - charters or district - that serve needy children in our urban areas well. Consider just released state achievement data that show of the 648 schools (176 charters and 472 district schools) serving children in Ohio's Big 8 cities (Akron, Canton, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Toledo and Youngstown)???? only eight percent of charters are rated excellent while a meager seven percent of district schools have...
Here in Ohio, the annual report card release from the Ohio Department of Education is like Christmas. We wait a long time for this morning, anticipating what kind of goodies there will be to unwrap in all of the data (and there is a lot of it).In good news, students in Ohio's "Big 8" districts (large urban cities) were just as likely to attend a school rated "A" or "B" by the state in 2008-09 as they were the year before (for the last two years, 20 percent of urban students- both charter and district - attended a school ranked Effective or Excellent). But, as Terry points out in our Special Analysis of Local Report Cards (PDF), there are still over 125,000 children in Big 8 cities who attend a school rated by the state as failing, or on the verge of it.
The good news is that according to Ohio's value-added metric, which measures the amount of growth achieved by schools and districts (in addition to absolute proficiency rates), roughly half of all schools in the Big 8 cities that serve grades four through eight exceeded expected growth in 2008-09.
As Terry is quoted on Catalyst OHIO:
"This data represents both the worst of news and the best of news. Overall, only half of the students in big urban districts are proficient in reading and math. But the good news is that in these schools, whether charter or district, students seem to be...

Students learn the "four times tables" by singing a song with hand movements.

Each year the Thomas B. Fordham Institute conducts an analysis of urban school performance in Ohio. We found that in 2008-09, 54 percent of charter students in Ohio Big 8 cities were in a school rated D or F, while 50 percent of traditional district students attended such a school. In Cleveland and Dayton, however, charter students outperformed their district peers in both reading and math proficiency.
In partnership with Public Impact, we analyzed the 2008-09 academic performance data for charter and district schools in Ohio's eight largest urban cities.
Winning the award for pretty much the least surprising news ever is that the National Education Association (NEA) has slammed President Obama's Race to the Top (RttT) initiative, a $4.35 billion competitive grant program for states to support educational reforms and innovation. The NEA has eloquently pared down the program's stipulations into several choice buzzwords and phrases that are sure to make its members' blood boil (whether or not they've actually read RttT's proposed criteria and regulations). Here are the main criticisms extended by the NEA (and other teachers unions, I would venture to guess) as well as the hypothetical response of a Democrat who used to find herself disliking her own party on many education issues, until Obama and Duncan came along:
1) NEA: Obama's school improvement plans are "narrow," "top-down" and not much different from the Bush administration's mandates (hint: include as many references to NCLB as possible; it is education's own "weapons of mass destruction" and it will make everyone very uncomfortable).
Reform-minded Democrat: Obama's reform agenda is based on several components. He wishes for states to develop highly effective teachers, create high standards and assessments, build high-quality data systems, and turn around struggling schools. This doesn't seem narrow to me. Even so, "narrowness " and "wideness" are not the criteria upon which I'll judge his reform plans. "Effectiveness" matters more.
2) NEA: RttT just extends more federal mandates that will "usurp" the rights and responsibilities of state and local...
School-choice foes in the Buckeye State are getting smarter about the strategies they employ to undermine the choice movement.???? Since the birth of charters here in 1998 and vouchers in 2005, opponents--namely Democrats, teacher unions, and the education establishment--have fought a "districts = good, choice = bad" fight.???? But with Democrats, including the President, across the country embracing choice and some of the state's top districts????employing charter schools themselves, that fight can only take local choice opponents so far.???? Rather than accepting school choice as an important component to improving public education, they've now focused their efforts on driving a wedge in the choice movement itself.
We first saw this tactic during the state budget deliberation process last spring, when Ohio House Democrats proposed????different levels of funding for charter schools based on their affiliation with traditional school districts. Charters were pitted against charters in a way they hadn't been in previous budget battles, and the resulting fight wasn't pretty. For example, some school leaders of high performing charters in Cleveland associated with the district were shunned by other charter advocates who saw them as turncoats for urging closer district-charter collaboration at the expense of charters not authorized by school districts. While the House funding plot was ultimately foiled by Senate Republicans, relationships within the charter school community remain bruised.????To be fair, Ohio's charter school community has never marched together the way teacher unions and other education establishment organizations do, but there's no doubt that the...
An editorial in the Dayton Daily News from this Monday argued that Ohio should bring Teach For America (TFA) into the state. The piece rightly outlines the steps necessary to create an Ohio TFA presence--for example, changes to teacher certification rules, funding for TFA training, and buy-in from unions. Not to gloss over the importance of such regulatory changes (TFA's entry here is impossible otherwise), but it is the question of "why TFA?"--rather than "how TFA?"--that I find most compelling and deserving of elaboration.
One commonly-hailed justification for an Ohio-based TFA site is its potential to recruit smart, energetic young people into a state that is suffering from an exodus of talent. Earlier this year, Fordham explored this trend in the Losing Ohio's Future report , which elucidated some of the causes behind Ohio's brain drain. But would the creation of TFA Ohio (say, in Cleveland, Cincinnati or Appalachia) promise to retain young talent? In other words, is Ohio losing talented college graduates to other TFA-friendly states? According to recent data illustrating which national universities and colleges send the most graduating seniors into the 2009 TFA corps, the answer is a resounding "yes."?? Of the top twenty large schools (defined as 10,000 undergraduates or more), two are in the Buckeye State: Ohio State University and Miami University. Although Ohio doesn't make the list for medium-sized schools, three of its colleges are in the top twenty small schools (defined as 2,999 or fewer...
The National Association of Charter School Authorizers (NACSA) recently released a report, Quality, Diversity and Choice: the Value of Multiple Charter Authorizing Options, which outlines various types of charter school authorizers and weighs the advantages and disadvantages associated with each. We're pleased that our sister organization, the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation, is listed in the nonprofit category as an example of a "strong authorizer," alongside organizations (in other categories) that we greatly respect, such as the Massachusetts Board of Education, Central Michigan University and the Mayor's Office in Indianapolis. (Fordham serves as an authorizer of six schools in the Buckeye State).
NACSA says that "good authorizing is about function more than form; there is no one particular authorizing option that works best in all circumstances... Good authorizing requires a relentless focus on quality." We wholeheartedly agree. Fordham has learned much in the last five years as a charter school authorizer (or sponsor, as it is called in Ohio). We've come to appreciate the many challenges facing schools serving the state's neediest children in an often hostile political environment. We believe sponsors must have an unwavering emphasis on school quality-academically, financially, and operationally. For more on Fordham's role as a charter school sponsor, see our annual Fordham Sponsorship Accountability Report, which outlines in detail the status of our sponsorship...
They say the pen is mightier than the sword. In this case, we can only hope. Ohio State Senator Jon Husted (former State Speaker of the House) recently penned a letter to Governor Strickland, the President of the Senate, and the current Speaker detailing Ohio's shortcomings in its personal Race to the Top. He states that he is proposing legislation to correct these deficiencies; namely to lift the various caps Ohio currently has on new charter schools and to revise Ohio's value-added assessments for teachers and principals.
Senator Husted notes that Ohio now has the chance to start making decisive steps towards complying with the Race to the Top guidelines and ultimately to put in place better practice. As our own Terry Ryan says, can we afford to stumble into this federal funding any longer?

Some of today's most popular technical indicators or trading methods can be traced back to a specific inventor but they are often not given credit by today's traders and analysts. As an "old school technical analyst," I have always felt it was important to give the inventor the proper credit
Some of you may be familiar with what is referred to on most quote systems as the TRIN but should really be called the ARMS Index after its creator, Dick Arms. I fought this battle many years ago on the precursor to CNBC, and they did change it for a while, but it did not last.
That is the same reason that I try to give Joe Granville credit in my articles about on balance volume or Welles Wilder when I talk about the RSI or ADX. I was first exposed to candle charts in 1989 when I was given a copy of The Japanese Chart of Charts by Seiki Shimizu during a speaking trip to Japan.
Though I found this book quite interesting, I did not really start to apply the methods until much later. At the time, candle charts were virtually unknown in the US but over the next few years Steve Nison and Greg Morris both wrote excellent books on candlestick charting. Then I was introduced to a candlestick formation that I have found to be one of the most valuable in identifying market tops or bottoms.
I had always been intrigued by doji formations, which is characterized by the open and close being at approximately the same value. It typically is interpreted as a sign of indecision but then John Person shared with me his high and low close doji triggers, which are in his book Candlestick and Pivot Point Trading Triggers. The HCD is discussed is also discussed in this article by John.
These do not form at many market highs or lows, but when they do, I have found them to be extremely helpful in determining both entries and exits. The low close doji or LCD will be the focus of this week's article, and I will look at the high close doji or HCD in a subsequent article.
As with many technical methods, the longer time frame charts give the most reliable signals. Volume plays an important role in my work, and when volume analysis is added to the LCD signals, it often validates them, making the investor or trader even more confident. Of course, Joe Granville's on balance volume is my favorite volume indicator, and it is particularly insightful when it is analyzed in multiple time frames.
In the upper left of the chart is a typical doji formation. When the close of the next candle is below the low of the doji, then a low close doji signal (LCD) is triggered. In order to be valid, John's method requires that the lower close must occur within three bars after the doji. For those selling short based on this trigger, a stop is placed above the doji or most recent high.
This monthly chart of the Dow Industrials shows that a doji (see circle) was formed in October 2007 as the Dow opened at 13,895, had a low of 13,407, and closed at 13,930. The high for the month was 14,198.
In November, the Dow Industrials closed at 13,371, which was below 13,407 so an LCD was triggered. On the bottom of the chart, it is evident that the volume increased in November, point 1, which indicates there was more selling in November than there was buying in October.
In this second chart, I have included the monthly OBV with its 21-month WMA. I have highlighted the doji at point 1. As I noted, the November close generated an LCD and the Dow also closed lower again in December.
The close in January 2008 at 12,650 (point 2) was also below the prior two month's low. This weakness was confirmed by OBV as it dropped below its WMA (line 4) and its uptrend, line a, was also broken (point 4). The OBV stayed below its WMA until the end of July 2009.
The weekly chart of the Spyder Trust (SPY) covers from early 2011 though October 2012. The week ending May 13, 2011, point 1, a doji was formed. The OBV had peaked in early March and then formed a bearish divergence, line a, as it was forming lower highs while SPY was forming higher highs.
The week the doji formed, SPY closed at $133.39 and the OBV dropped below support (line 2). This confirmed the divergence, point 2. The low of the doji was $133.39 and the next week another doji was formed with a close at $133.61. The following week, SPY closed at $133.51, which was still above the first doji low.
Finally the week ending June 3, 2011, SPY closed at $130.42 triggering a low close doji as it was below the low of both dojis. The stop would have had been above the early May high at $137.18 and $137.86 would be 0.5% above the high.
The SPY eventually made a low of $107.43 in early October 2011. The rally continued until the end of March 2012 and while a doji did form in early 2012, there was never a close below its low. The week ending March 30, another doji did form, point 3, with a low of $139.09.
The following week, the SPY made a new high at $142.21 and then closed a bit lower but well above the doji low. However, the second week after the doji, the SPY gapped lower and closed the week at $137.14, which was well below the doji low.
The Spyder Trust (SPY) moved sideways for the following three weeks before it dropped sharply. The OBV stayed above its WMA until the week ending May 18, and in this instance, was not helpful in confirming the doji. The SPY made a low of $127.14 in early June and by the middle of the month, the OBV was back above its WMA.
One of the dominant stock stories since last September has been the plunge in the stock of Apple, Inc. (AAPL). The weekly OBV of AAPL broke through its resistance (line a) in February 2012 as the stock accelerated to the upside.
As AAPL pushed above the $700 level in September, it formed a doji (point 1) with a high at $705.07, which was very close to the quarterly R2 level at $705.21. The close the following week at $667.10 was well below the doji low of $693.62.
Two weeks after the LCD, the OBV dropped below its WMA and the next week it also broke its uptrend, line b. The OBV did not form any divergences at the highs and oftentimes it will not. The daily OBV also did not form any divergences but a daily doji was formed on September 20 and AAPL closed below the doji low two days later.
Click to EnlargeNext, let's look at a weekly chart of the Vanguard MSCI Emerging Market ETF (VWO), which formed a doji the week ending August 6, 2012, with a high of $43.04 and a low of $42.20 (point 1). The next week, VWO closed at $41.31, triggering the LCD. A stop 0.5% above the high would have been at $43.26. Over the next nine days, VWO hit a low of $40.06 before spurting to the upside with a high of $45, which would have hit the stop.
I included this example to reinforce the reality that nothing works all of the time but also to illustrate that all trades need to be managed when they move in your favor. The fact that the weekly OBV had just moved above its WMA as the doji was forming might have kept you out of the trade.
At the end of April 2011, VWO formed another doji, point 1, and the following week VWO closed at $48.74, which was well below the doji low of $49.95. The formation of the doji was accompanied by the formation of a negative divergence in the OBV, line a, as it made significantly lower highs.
The OBV marginally broke its support, line b, several weeks before the doji was formed. After the LCD was triggered, the OBV dropped below support and its previous low (point 5).
The stop on a short would have been above the high from the week after the doji at $50.92. Seven weeks after the LCD, VWO stabilized in the $46 area and rallied as high as $49.65 before forming a second doji at point 4.VWO plunged the next week and closed at $43.65, which was well below the second doji low of $47.61. By early October, VWO had made a low of $34.21

Interesting article but after weeks of programming visual basic macros in Excel to track OBV and try to use it as a signal, I found it completely worthless. The project extracted data from TOS every minute and correlated it to price action. Having achieved no discernible results, I then captured the most recent ATM call & put strikes on the 38 tickers I was using for this project along with OBV. Once again, no "actionable" signals were conveyed. I concluded that Granville was ahead of his time, but his time was 1970 when computers were in their infancy and were able to do much less than my Iphone today. Chaikin, MACD, and Lin Reg 50 seem to be far more predictive and everyone is looking for divergences. Most people find them after they have occurred and then extol how smart they were for finding Sunday's football results on Monday. Thx.

A 59-year-old man was killed in an early morning house fire in Indiana County on Wednesday morning.
The county coroner said a 911 call was made at 4:44 a.m. about the fire at Terry Pease's home on Buckley Road in Armstrong Township.
Flames quickly took over the home, and it was fully engulfed when firefighters arrived, the coroner said.
Pease was pronounced dead at the scene at 7:11 a.m., the coroner said. An autopsy is scheduled for Thursday.
The state police fire marshal is investigating the cause of the fire.

This dramatization is the best I've ever heard done of any Dicken's books. The characters are perfectly cast, and the story is wonderful. If you want to enjoy David Copperfield at its best, listen to this one!
"Stunning!!! I'll never forget it!"
Phenomenal! From plowhorse destined for the slaughter house to National Jumping Champion against the best, this gentle horse was all heart, and so was his rider, Harry de Leyer. "Nothing is impossible with God," (Luke 1:37)
"Extremely Disappointing!"
What an incredible pity that Shakespeare's beautiful work is polluted by a commentary that is low-minded and without any respect for the upright and God-fearing man that Shakespeare was and communicated through his plays. Shakespeare would be horrified to hear his work inundated with a non-intellectual, disrespectful, and immoral-minded tone. I am deeply disheartened by this audio, and when I have recovered from my shock and dismay, will listen to the pure plays of Shakespeare as they were meant to be in all their beauty and uprightness.
"This book brought profound joy to me."
I never cease to marvel at the genius of Lucy Maud Montgomery. This book, as well as this whole series by her, has brought me so much deep joy and a love for the beauty of life. I'm now in the fifth book in her series, "Anne's House of Dreams," and I continue to absorb the incredible writing of this author. The narrator in this book sounds just like I would imagine Anne's voice to sound. A real winner!
A very powerful book! An allegory of the Christian spiritual life at its best. This book inspires one to reach the "High Places" of the spiritual life with the Shepherd of our souls as our guide. It is also an interesting story and well narrated. I read this book as a youth and have now returned to it after 20 years or so; it is now more powerful than ever.

Kurds Return to Reclaim Property in Kirkuk
For decades, Saddam Hussein's regime confiscated land from ethnic Kurds and Turkmen and gave it to Arab settlers. Now that the regime is gone, many Kurds forced out of the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk return to demand their land back. U.S. commanders warn the dispute could touch off a firestorm in the ethnically charged region. NPR's Ivan Watson reports.

A Sarasota man was seriously injured Sunday night after his motorcycle ran off the road and he was ejected from the vehicle.
Joseph Gaeta Jr., 54, was taken to Blake Medical Center with serious injuries, a Florida Highway Patrol report states.
The report states Gaeta was driving southbound on Interstate 75 in the center travel lane near the University Parkway exit, when he changed from the center travel lane to the left inside travel lane.
Gaeta failed to maintain control of his Suzuki 1000 CC, however, and the motorcycle overturned, the report states.
The motorcycle traveled about 285 feet in a southerly direction before coming to a final rest in the center travel lane.

10 FUNNIEST MOVIES EVER QUOTESApr 23, 2003
Popular Products in Movies
The Bottom Line Happy Gilmore is the funniest movie ever, an unstoppable rebel force among comedies.
These are, in my personal opinion, the 10 funniest movies ever. I should warn you that I have been accused of having a "stupid" sense of humor, as well as a complete lack of respect for the "classics" (which I define as any of the boring movies made before 1990). I believe that to be truly funny, a movie must have at least two quotes that are so hilarious that you recite them every time you hear someone say anything even remotely similar to another line from the movie. It also has to be watchable at least a dozen times before you start to get tired of it. So without further ado... 10) Fight Club - A brilliant satire of our material-driven existence, with Brad Pitt portraying the ultimate anti-hero. Smoothly makes fun of every facet of society. - Oh I get it. It's very clever. - Thank you. - How's that workin' out for you? - What? - Being clever. - Great. - Keep it up then. - Was it ticking? - Actually throwers don't worry about ticking cuz modern bombs don't tick. - Sorry, throwers? - Baggage handlers. 9) Monty Python And The Holy Grail - Fine, one movie made before 1990. King - Please! Please good people! I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? Peasant 1 - No one lives there. K - Then who is your lord? P1 - We don't have a lord. K - What? Peasant 2 - I told you, we're an anarco-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. But all the decisions of that officer must be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting; by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs- K - Be quiet! P2 - but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more serious- K - Be quiet! I order you to be quiet! P1 - Order, eh? Who does he think he is? Ha! K - I am your king! P1 - Well I didn't vote for you. - Where'd you get the coconuts? - We found them. - Found them? In Mercia? The coconut's tropical. - What do you mean? - Well this is a temperate zone. - The swallow may fly south with the sun, or the house marten or plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land. - Are you suggesting coconuts migrate? 8) Friday - Chris Tucker's first big movie, when he was at his best, before he started doing PG-rated blockbusters at $20 million a pop. "Every time I come in the kitchen, you in the kitchen. In the godd@mn refrigerator. Eatin' up all the food. All the chicken. All the pig feet. All the collard greens. All the hog maw. I wanna eat some of them chitlins! I like pig feet!" - My neck! My back! My neck and my back! Oww, I want a hundred and fifty thousand! But we can settle out of court right now for twenty bucks. - Man, get yo' punk @ss up! It ain't even wet over here. D@mn!" - Hey, well look here man. Just gimme ten dollars and I won't say nothin'. - Get out. - Two-fifty and a jawbreaker? - Get out! - A dollar and some envelopes? 7) Money Talks - The second Chris Tucker movie in a row, and the most underappreciated movie on the list. Far better than the black-and-white buddy flicks that have come out recently. - I was there when they shot Baby Bro in MacArthur Park. - Whered they shoot him? - In MacArthur Park you big dumb mutha- - Nah, whered they shoot him? - In the @ss! Everybody knows Baby Bro got shot in the @ss! "Well, you know, I had a lot of friends. Frank Sinatra, Jr., Sammy Davis, Jr., Jr., used to call me all the time." 6) The Original Kings Of Comedy - The funniest standup comedy piece ever, with the possible exception of Chris Rock's HBO specials. "Sh!t, I wish a muthaf*cka would be in my muthaf*ckin' seat" "A black President? Now come on y'all, we got Clinton, that's close. He got negro tendencies." 5) Zoolander - If the whole movie were as funny as the first half hour, it would be number one on the list, hands down. "You can derelict my balls, capi-tan." "Hansel, so hot right now...Hansel." 4) Meet The Parents - The second movie in a row for Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller, who is in three of the top five. Mob boss Robert DeNiro also shows his funny side. The volleyball scene is possibly the funniest in history. You gave me life, you gave me milk, you gave me courage. You name was Angela, an angel from Heaven. But you were also an angel of God, and he needed you too. Selfishly, I tried to keep you here, while the cancel ate away your organs, like an unstoppable rebel force. But I couldnt see you, and I shall see your face, never more never more never more until we meet again in Heaven. Greg Fokker - So what got you in to, uh, carpentering? Kevin - Carpentry? (smug laugh) I guess Id have to say Jesus. He was a carpenter and I just figured if youre gonna follow in someones footsteps, who better than Christ? Jack Gregs Jewish. Kevin Are you? Fokker Yeah. Kevin Well so was J.C. Youre in good company. 3) Austin Powers 2: The Spy Who Shagged Me - Even better than the first. Mike Myers proves his comic genius, playing three of the funniest characters ever created. - Do you remember me Austin Powers? - I don't recall your name, but your...fez...is...familiar. "Number Two, you look so young, vital. Frau, you look so...riiight..." 2) Office Space - By far the most low-budget film on the list, and the most subtle. You have to watch it at least thirty times to catch all the pauses and facial expressions that make this movie so ingenious. "PC lobe letter? What the f*ck does that mean?" "Yeah, hiii. It's Bill Lumberg again. Uhh, I just wanted to make sure you knew that we did start at the, uhh, usual time this morning. Yeah, it isn't a half day, or anything like that." 1) Happy Gilmore - Here it is, the funniest movie ever made! Caddyscak is NOT the funniest golf movie, no matter what the old-timers say. Non-stop laughes the entire way through, from the nursing home orderly to Chubbs' hand to Bob Barker beating up Adam Sandler. The pinnacle of Happy Gilmore's career, and a movie that will never be duplicated. Nursing home orderly (Ben Stiller) - Okay, listen up everybody! Turn up your volumes, announcement. I got good news. We're extending arts and crafts time by four hours today! Old lady - My fingers hurt. Orderly - (softly) What's that? Lady - My fingers hurt. Orderly - Oh, well, now your back's gonna hurt, cuz you just pulled landscapin' duty. Hmm, anybody else's fingers hurt? I didn't think so. Grandma - Sir, um, could I trouble you for a glass of warm milk? It helps put me to sleep. Orderly - You could trouble me for a glass of warm milk. Now you will go to sleep, or I will put you to sleep. Check out the nametag. You're in my world now Grandma. Grandma - Oh dear. |

Arizona Diamondbacks recall Mike Bolsinger, option Will Harris to Triple-A
The first domino in the aftermath of Bronson Arroyo being placed on the disabled list has fallen.
The Arizona Diamondbacks announced Tuesday the team had recalled starting pitcher Mike Bolsinger from Triple-A Reno.
Bolsinger, who went 1-2 with a 6.08 ERA in five appearances (four starts) earlier in the season, will get the first shot at filling in for the veteran right-hander, taking the mound Tuesday night against the Brewers.
Bolsinger's regular turn in the rotation would have had him pitch Monday, and instead of making him wait an exceptionally long time between starts the team decided to push Wade Miley and Chase Anderson's starts back.
"He's been throwing good," D-backs manager Kirk Gibson told Burns and Gambo on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM about Bolsinger. "He's had one game maybe that wasn't very good, that happens from time to time, but overall we just felt that the way it fit in and the best way for our benefit was to bring him in tonight."
To make room for Bolsinger the team sent relief pitcher Will Harris to Reno. The 29-year-old has posted a 0-2 record with a 9.24 ERA in 12.2 innings of work over two stints with the D-backs this season.

I picked up my Arsenal SGL 21 this afternoon. Right out of the box: And two hours later, (and a little swearing..) Kudos to the furniture maker...everything fits snug and tight. I don't think I'm going to do anything else to it, I like the classic look. Got the Brown Bear in today too, so next week it's off to the range.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Home Team Gets The Calls
by Paul on 06/03/09 at 09:50 AM ET
Comments (0)
from David Staples of The Cult Of Hockey,
In Detroit, the referees favoured the Red Wings with a few crucial calls. But in the NHL, turnabout is fairplay and it's expected. Pittsburgh would get its turn.
You see, there was no conspiracy at the NHL head office to favour the Red Wings. No, all there was at play was the very real human emotions of NHL referees, not wanting to incite the wrath of the most rabid of all fans, hometown fans during a Stanley Cup final….
There's no doubt in my mind that the Pittsburgh Penguins got away with a few in the third period against the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night, in Pittsburgh's 4-2 win.
Most outrageous was a late elbow by agitator Matt Cooke to the head of Red Wings hustler Darren Helm. It was a typical Matt Cooke nasty, sneaky late hit special, the kind of late hit that the NHL should outlaw.
Right now, of course, the lateness of this hit wouldn't get Cooke a penalty, though that elbow certainly should have.
read on with picture evidence of the Cooke hit…

Really good old school pub. Staff friendly and good choice of Cider and Ales. Not far from the clubs and town centre well worth a walk up
We stumbled on The Cider Press, whilst looking for decent shopping in Torquay and needing a light refreshment made our way to a busy bar, to be greeted with a warm good afternoon by the gentleman behind the bar, enquiring about the range of ciders available we were given an in depth review on all brands, there locality, there strength...

Had a nice drink in the Cider Press - Thatcher's Gold was lovely. Small pub, but friendly, and welcomes dogs.
I read on a website somewhere that they allowed dogs inside and stumbled upon it by chance. We went in and were greeted by a very friendly bar lady who, without asking, brought water for our thirsty dog and gave him a fuss. She was very friendly and the service was good. She even remembered what we were drinking when... More
Interesting and varied franchises. Some nice collection pieces and a fab kitchen shop. Good for plants and food. Median stuff a tad expensive.
Visited here recently - was very busy, good friendly atmosphere, and as you'd expect a good choice of ciders. The prices were OK, about average, and service was quick despite the plae being so busy. Would happily return. Didn't see any food being served.

Chef floWer's Note:
Kofte's is a meatball which is native to Cyprus, Turkey and some middle east regions. They came in all shapes, sizes and different flavours. This recipe is my mothers recipe, she normally uses beef but since I don't eat beef she use chicken if I'm coming over. We serve them with Turkish Cacik (We make the exact recipe) and a green salad or parsley salad. The cinnamon, mint, salt and black pepper are not the exact measurements as mum uses her hand to measure anything, feel free to add more but only to your taste.
My Private Note
Units: US | Metric
- 1 kg ground chicken or 1 kg minced chicken or 1 kg minced beef or 1 kg ground beef
- 1 1/2 kg potatoes, peeled and finely grated
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 egg, whisked (optional)
- 150 g flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
- 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 teaspoons dried mint, grounded
- 1 1/8 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, to taste
- vegetable oil, for frying
- 1Peel and finely grate potatoes, place them in a bowl and sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon salt, set aside.
- 2In a separate large bowl, place ground/minced chicken or beef, onion, parsley, egg, cinnamon, mint, salt and black pepper.
- 3Potatoes have excess liquids and with this recipe you need to remove all the excess liquids. In a large strainer, kneed all liquids out of the grated potatoes with only leaving the potatoes flesh.
- 4Then add the potato with the rest of the ingredients and mix them together. If the mixture is a little sticky you may need to add more potatoes.
- 5With your hand mould the kofte into a small long patty about 5cm x 2cm (2 inch x 1/2 inch) then place them on a tray, repeat this until all the mixture is finish. When placing the kofte's on a tray do not allow them to touch each other as they may stick together.
- 6Heat oil in a frying pan or deep fryer add kofte one by one in the pan without touching each other. Flip them over once they are brown and then let the other side brown. Remove onto serving platter, then repeat this step until all kofte's are finished, then serve.
- 7Could be served as finger food, entree or a main dish with Turkish Cacik (yoghurt sauce) and garden salad.

It looks like New Line Cinema may be forging ahead with the production of "The Hobbit" without Peter Jackson at the helm.
In a letter that Jackson and his producing partner Fran Walsh sent to fan-site TheOneRing.net on Sunday, New Line is looking to pull the trigger on the movie, but Jackson's lawsuit with them over revenues from "The Fellowship of the Ring" has soured the relationship to the point where Jackson won't do the movie without the earlier matter being settled (understandable, since the sum in question is in the many millions of dollars) and New Line needs to get going as their production rights have a time limit.
This news has rankled fans of the "Lord of the Rings" series, to say the least. Since "The Return of the King" was finished, everyone has pretty much assumed that once Jackson finished his pet project ("King Kong"), he'd be working on "The Hobbit" once all the details were worked out. His work on the trilogy cemented his reputation with movie fans, and doing the story that started it all would just seem like a sure-thing.
New Line has the production rights to "The Hobbit," but MGM has the distribution rights, and Variety is reporting that MGM is none too pleased to hear that Jackson won't be doing the movie.
Special effects house Weta Digital is not necessarily out of the game when it comes to doing the effects work, however. A mention on TheOneRing.net says that Weta chief Richard Taylor has said that Jackson would not bar Weta from working on the movie if he were not the director. However, it doesn't sound like they have been contacted in any concrete way about doing the movie at this point.
It will be interesting to see what happens with this. There's too much money at stake for someone to be stupid enough to let rights to "The Hobbit" lapse. New Line has to tread carefully with the project, though, as the movie's success depends almost completely upon the fervor of the fan base that made the trilogy the success that it was. Giving Jackson the cold shoulder is the first step in the wrong direction, and it's very difficult to think of another director that could bring "The Hobbit" to the big screen in a satisfactory manner.
My advice to New Line: Go to arbitration with Peter Jackson and get the lawsuit settled. Put the matter behind you and concentrate on the future. The franchise is too important to everyone involved to screw it up, and there's no compelling reason that Jackson and his team shouldn't be doing the movie.
