Deb? Why is my page being deleted?[edit]
I don't understand. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BodyofEvidenceB (talk • contribs) 14:40, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Red Rum page[edit]
I might be wrong (forgive me if so) but it looks like you undid a correction I made to the quotation of Peter O'Sullevan's commentary as Red Rum won his third Grand National. However, my correction - "it's hats off and a tremendous reception..." Is correct. This can be easily verified via YouTube, and also via the reference source I have now added to the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Neilinabbey1 (talk • contribs) 22:38, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
My Tea At Sea post got deleted, I would like to know why?[edit]
I posted 3 sentences about the company. It's just the beginning, I plan to make a full detailed description within the next couple of days. But the 3 sentences already got deleted. I have read the post guidelines and don't feel like I violated anything. Please explain so I can make better posts in the future. Thank youJason blogger (talk) 19:43, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
- Your article was deleted because it was "an article about a real person, individual animal(s), organization, web content or organized event that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant". The article (preferably the first version) should indicate why the topic is sufficiently notable for inclusion in an encyclopaedia (e.g. "the first . . .", "the largest . . ."). As well as this, sources to back this up should be given, indicating that the subject of the article is discussed in reliable sources, such as books, scholarly journals, etc. --Boson (talk) 12:20, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) gives some criteria showing which organizations will generally be considered notable. I have provided some more links to Wikipedia policies and guidelines on your talk page. --Boson (talk) 12:45, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

Can Template:Centralized discussion get collapsed in the same way Template:Signpost-subscription does (collapse=yes)? As far as I can see in documentation, this option is unavailable currently. If I'm correct, can it be made possible? Thanks. Mohamed CJ (talk) 16:44, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Did you know/Good Article RfC[edit]
Should this RFC, which has closed, be archived and removed from {{centralized discussion}}? Chris857 (talk) 02:10, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
How to request a courtesy vanishing [edit]
First, consider whether you really want to vanish, or whether a simple retirement or clean start might be more appropriate. Vanishing is a last resort and should only be used when you wish to stop editing forever and also to hide as much of your past associations as possible.
If you decide to vanish, you may wish to blank or delete your user page and any subpages in your userspace. To request deletion, add the {{db-user}}
tag to the top of each page, and an admin will delete the page for you. Note that your user talk pages will normally not be deleted (see below).
Finally, contact the bureaucrats via e-mail and ask that your account be renamed, giving "request for courtesy vanishing" as the reason. Use the link below to send a secure e-mail from your Wikipedia account, so that the bureaucrats can verify that it is a legitimate request.
You can also send direct email to wikien-bureaucratslists.wikimedia.org. There is a public request page for name change requests, but this is not recommended because it will leave a public record of your request to vanish that cannot itself be hidden.
If you have questions about vanishing, or have concerns that might be addressable by a less permanent method, you may want to contact a Bureaucrat (above) or a Functionary for advice.
You edited out "propaganda" and replaced it with "patriotic literature"[edit]
You edited my change to Wikipedia's "man without a country," article. I changed "patriotic literature" to propaganda. That book is propaganda-- it's one of the biggest pieces of propaganda in American history, and it's been used to manipulate people for generations. Your change was unethical and unwarranted. I am a professional journalist and I know what propaganda is, I'm sure much better than you do.
Wikipedia asked for money all the time, and I will never give Wikipedia a dime, because it will IT IS A WASTE. Any change that is made to an article that isn't status quo with the idea that everything is just hunky-dory here in the United States, and the world over is quickly edited out by a troll like you--who is probably employed by the CIA. Wikipedia claims to be the free encyclopedia--WHAT A LIE. — Preceding unsigned comment by 18.104.22.168 at 17:18, October 19, 2013
- At "The Man Without a Country", you were reverted here by User:Liz. Note that Wikipedia has no centralized editorial board, so it is incongruous to refer to Wikipedia as whole in referring to the revert. If you can provide a wp:reliable source referring to it as propaganda, it could be added back. Chris857 (talk) 21:31, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
- "Propaganda" is an emotionally-laden word, implying falsehood and manipulation, and that doesn't reflect neutrality. But Chris857 is correct, if you can find a critique of the book that labels it as propaganda (and it isn't WP:OR), we can include that in a criticism section. Liz Read! Talk! 22:01, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
Wikipedia Fundraising[edit]
Your headline banner asking for financial support will be limiting your chances of success. You say 'If everyone reading this right now gave £3, our fundraiser would be done in an hour.' The problem is that you will never get everyone to give, and those that will give have been directed by you to consider giving £3. This means that you are bound to fall a long way short of success.
If you plan on securing leading donations from 8% of your constituency and modest (£3 - £30) from 20% of your constituency, you may just achieve your objective. All independent research into donors (certainly in the UK) suggests that you would be unlikely to receive gifts from more than 28% of the audience. This critical information then allows you to present the case for financial support at the right level. Be bold. Do not depress expectation by asking everyone for £3. Publish the vision that you expect a few leading donors to make the running, and everyone else to add some icing. I don't know how much you need, but if you tell me, I will construct a table of giving which will demonstrate to individuals how much they can make a difference.
The core point is that if you set low objectives, you deserve to achieve them!
Very pleased to help, but please feed me some information. I will then draft something that will give you a better chance of success

Does this qualify for RfC?[edit]
Regards, Lesion 21:02, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
Accessibility and readability[edit]
As discussed above, last year, I propose changing the style of the contents of {{Centralized discussion}} from the current example:
- An RfC on the captitalisation of bird names.
- An RfC about whether or not the opt-in requirement should be removed from the enwiki edit counter.
- A proposal to reimplement the Main Page with an alternative framework.
- An RfC regarding changing the username policy to allow role accounts.
- A discussion on ways to improve the "Today's featured article requests" system.
to, say:
- Captitalisation of bird names (RfC).
- Removal of opt-in requirement from the enwiki edit counter (RfC).
- Main Page - alternative framework (proposal).
- Allow role accounts in username policy (RfC).
- Improving "Today's featured article requests" system (discussion).
This has several advantages:
- Shorter entries
- Redundant verbiage (such as "about", "regarding", "on ways to") removed
- Each link has unique text (no repetition of RfC)
- The proposition is the first item
- The link text includes the proposition
- Type of discussion clearly and consistently identified as last item, in parentheses
- Improved readability
- Satisfies WCAG accessibility guidelines.
I also propose to include an edit notice, requesting that future additions follow this pattern. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:59, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
- That looks a good change, I second using that style. Diego (talk) 17:58, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
- OK, that's done. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:39, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
- I think there's an improvement here. However, we can go further, as we don't need to include RFC in the description. It's not an essential point. What is important is what the discussion is about, and that should be clear in the description. RfC is just a way of advertising a discussion. CENT is another way of advertising a discussion. We shouldn't need to say "discussion" or "RfC" - what is important is what the discussion is about, not how it has been advertised. SilkTork ✔Tea time 22:43, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
- Fine by me. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 23:12, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
Template link[edit]
This comment is about the template {{cent}}. One of the links, "Recurrent proposals", takes you to WP:Village pump (proposals)/Persistent proposals. However, that page has seen no significant activity for many months, and surely does not merit being linked from what seems intended to be an up-to-the-minute signpost to the most vital current discussions. The link could be replaced by one to WP:Village pump (policy): Noyster (talk), 17:21, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
Too wide[edit]
At WP:RFD this is far too wide and knocks the lede text down below it. The specific RFD header ([[Wikipedia::Redirects for discussion/header]]) is much narrower. I am on 1280x768 screen and it is too wide; heaven forbid mobile users. I only noticed this yesterday, has something changed in it? Can you make it as narrow as the RfD "infobox" in the header? Is it just me? I've knocked it out of the RfD heaer for now, but of course it is useful to have it there. Si Trew (talk) 09:48, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
Charts in articles in PDF format don't download[edit]
Hello: I download articles in the PDF format. When I tried to download the "John Ford Filmography", which contains several lengthy charts, they wouldn't download.
Has anyone else noticed this? Is it even possible to do this? Is there a work-around solution?
Thanks very much for any help or solution. Steven — Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 22:01, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
- A better place to ask this would be the Technical Village Pump at WP:VPT. – Philosopher Let us reason together. 18:55, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
Contents have have keywords and a hyperlink takes us to a new page when clicked. It impedes the flow of reading nor we could skip it. So, i suggest to have a call out menu on mouse over option just to give a brief description on it.
- A better place to make this suggestion would be at either WP:VPR (Village Pump - Proposals) or WP:VPT (village Pump - Technical). – Philosopher Let us reason together. 18:58, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
Request for addition of NAC Deletes discussion to CENT[edit]
I'm requesting that a neutral non-involved editor please add a listing for the topic of NAC Deletes to the CENT template with a neutral wording to improve the number of contributors to the discussion. The level of discussion on this topic has been excessively low considering the nature of the topic which would seem to me to be a topic of much more interest as a step towards moving away from a general public consensus that administrators have some kind of additional authority that non-admins do not have and are more than just trusted individuals for using certain tools that could cause a great number of headaches in the hand of a non-experienced or ill-intentioned editor. Thank you for your assistance. — {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) 20:15, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
- Done I've added this to the template myself. Please feel free to revise if you don't think it is neutrally enough worded or inappropriately worded in any way. Thank you. — {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) 01:30, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
Userfication discussion[edit]
At time of writing the {{Centralized discussion}} panel includes a link to a discussion on "Userfication: elevate to guideline status"; but the link only takes you to the top of the Village Pump (policy) page, the discussion itself having been archived. It was a well-attended thread, started less than a month ago, with no conclusion arrived at and the last contribution only 10 days ago, on 24 December. Should we remove the link from Centralized discussion, or pull the discussion itself out of archive? 220.127.116.11 (talk) 23:37, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- I've removed the discussion from CENT and will list at WP:ANRFC for a proper close. — {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) 23:55, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
WP:FLRC has three active listings, not a single one of which has had any action since November. Any idea why the listings are so inactive? FLRC apparently has a history of being even slower than FARC, as one talk page notice pointed out that a listing sat around for 16 months before anything happened.
No process on Wikipedia should be this agonizingly slow or inactive. FARCs usually take a long time, but most of the time, stuff is at least happening in them. Not so on FLRC, where three discussions, one opened in November, have had absolutely no action whatsoever. Any suggestions on how to breathe some life into this seemingly moribund part of the process? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 17:56, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- As the director of the FL process, I have a good idea why things have become static at FLRC: the overall level of reviewing at all of our content processes has declined sharply in the last couple of years. I don't know why this is, but I have to think that the gradual loss of enthusiastic editors from the project as a whole in recent years is filtering down to the content processes. Even the highly trafficked FAC process has been slower than it should be; I've seen articles take longer to promote or archive than was justified by their merits, and many articles now get only a limited review before being archived. And don't get me started on what happened to WP:PR, which is almost moribund unless you actively request reviews from editors. If processes that significant are struggling, you can imagine why the smaller FLRC process would be in the state it is right now. The good news is that a little bit of care does wonders for these processes. If any of you have an eagle eye and would like to offer your skills in reviewing one or more facets of an article/list (prose quality, photo licensing, source formatting/reliability, etc.) we would appreciate your input, at FLRC and elsewhere. You are a rare commodity in the current editing environment, and your services would be highly valued by project directors and by the editors striving to make content better.

2 weeks 6 days ago | Uniquenames are hit and miss |
People who have worked at Michigan in the past (like Tolbert) but are no longer around still have uniquenames. For example, Hunter Lochmann still has a uniquename even though he is no longer working at Michigan. Ty Wheatley Sr. also has a uniquename, but he's listed as an alum. The interesting one is Fred Jackson, who, if this is accurate, is listed as a retiree. https://mcommunity.umich.edu/#profile:fredjack |

But it's my understanding that Dekers essentially got absorbed by the AD. It still exists, but as a shell of its former self. |

There was a noticeable difference going into the 2012-13 season from the previous year. The whole place just felt different, and not in a good way. And that was before the team tanked |
14 weeks 3 days ago | It shouldn't matter, but it does |
I fully agree that, in the end, his intention shouldn't matter. Unfortuantely, he's driven a wedge so deep in between himself and students/alumni/fans that decisions like this are questioned almost instantly, even though they should be looked upon in a positive light. It's hard for people to overlook being misled/blown off at almost every turn and not question something like this, especially given the timing. Is it right? Not necessarily. Is it understandable? Absolutely. |
14 weeks 3 days ago | I won't shit on him for lowering prices |
Good for him. It's about time. And credit to him for finally getting that part right, even if I don't entirely believe that he did this on his own. I will, however, shit on him for not pursuing this relationship with students in the first place. He never should have waited four years to do stuff like this. He never should have blown them off in the first place. It's too late to call this relationship "important" and not be laughed at. If it were actually important, he shouldn't have destroyed it in the first place. |
14 weeks 4 days ago | 3:00 PM |
It's in Flint. Link. |
14 weeks 6 days ago | I'd add one other thing |
See if they'd be willing to scrap the validation fee required for the student section. That should eliminate a few (or a lot) of the no shows since students can sell their tickets, and those who buy won't have to worry about paying an extra $40 or $50 in addition to the ticket. |
15 weeks 3 days ago | You want an actual rebuttal? |
Fine. Here. The Free Press report was full of holes, misconstrued quotes, and other irregularities (to put it nicely). The entire student body knew it and therefore didn't take it seriously. Perhaps you forgot that the old BOX house put up a sign that said "Rosenberg punches dolphins" in response to the story. Athletics never gave anyone a real reason to protest those games because everyone involved knew the article was crap. Contrast that with the attitude of the athletic department since Brandon has taken over. The students have been treated like crap. Donors feel alienated. The only ones who seem to be happy are the athletes themselves (I don't blame them for that) and those who have an obscene amount of money to donate. |
15 weeks 3 days ago | Except it's not |
I've wanted Brandon gone since 2012. And I know I'm not the only one. |
16 weeks 3 days ago | Hey Dave |
If your relationship with the students was actually "outstanding" then they wouldn't be protesting at the president's house calling for your resignation/firing. |

Yes, but if the band alone is responsible for getting a Weather Channel anchor to show up then I'll be shocked. |
18 weeks 10 hours ago | Yes, because Michigan really |
Yes, because Michigan really needs someone from the Weather Channel to create a wow experience at halftime. That's definitely going to create a good memory for everyone and make them want to come back. |

A large portion of the student body would line up for that, as would most recent alumni. Then add everyone else... |

23 weeks 1 day ago | Last year was the perfect storm |
Dortmund suffered a ton of injuries and slipped up enough to allow Bayern to win a lot earlier than everyone would have expected, even with that long unbeaten run. Given that Martinez is out with a torn ACL and there's no way BVB suffers another injury crisis like that, I expect it to be a lot closer this year. |
23 weeks 1 day ago | Still waiting... |
One more week until Bundesliga starts (at least the Pokal starts this weekend), but for EPL, go Liverpool. |
23 weeks 4 days ago | Found part of it |
I'm not going to track down the rest of it since it's likely the teams in question would be on this list. Obviously Akron, Kansas State, and Rugters are no longer (or shortly won't be) on this list. Link. Edit: Cincinnati also drops off the list come 2017. |
23 weeks 4 days ago | You can forget about Oregon State |
They're on the schedule next year as a one off home game. But your point still stands. |
23 weeks 4 days ago | It's on GolTV |
Good luck finding it anywhere. |
23 weeks 5 days ago | Yes, it's taking a |
"Yes, it's taking a game away but you're ticket is still good. You just have to drive 3 hours." Great! So the money that people spent on tickets just went up a lot more because now, in addition to the ticket they already paid for, they have to pay for gas, food, and quite possibly lodging, instead of having the game at Yost like everyone expected. That's a bait and switch. And that's bullshit. |
23 weeks 5 days ago | Wrong analogy |
Yes the Madrid-United match was a great way to expand the sport in the US but neither one of those teams gave up a home match to play over here. It was part of a pre-season tour and was solely marketing based. This, on the other hand, would be fine if they hadn't ended season ticket renewals five days before announcing it. A bunch of other people have beaten that to death at this point, but that's the main problem. Factor in that you just removed one of the two best games on the home calendar and it's a huge slap in the face to everyone who bought season tickets. |
23 weeks 6 days ago | Here's a student specific one |
4 of those 15 non-exhibition games occur during a break. The Renssalaer series is during Thanksgiving break, while the Wisconsin home series is during the first weekend of spring break. That schedule is beyond pathetic. |

From the first teaser of Bayonetta, the audience already had Devil May Cry in mind. Both game features fast pace and cool battle system.

The recent announcement that Bayonetta 2 would be an WiiU exclusive generated one of the most furious backlashes in recent gaming history. It wasn't exactly a top seller, so one might wonder what the big deal is. Bayonetta is one of the best hack'n'slash games of this generation, and a memorable experience.

1995 GMC Suburban 2500 Problems
The power door lock actuators may become slow to operate or stop working completely and require replacement.
The inside and outside door handles are prone to breaking.
The intake manifold gasket may develop and external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Running the engine with a coolant/oil mix may result in engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct this issue.
1995 GMC Suburban 2500 Questions
I have changed my fuel draw pump and I also replaced the injection pump brand new but my truck still won't start or get fuel any suggestions
My suburban has side by side, rear doors, that open outwards (not the up and down doors). All of a sudden, the left door won't open. When I pull the lever to open it, it seems like it almost grabs something, and then nothing happens. I need to use the bed in the back of the truck to move some...

Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease widespread through sub-tropical regions of the world, including South and Central America and parts of Asia, but predominantly throughout Africa. There are anti-malarial drugs that can (and should) be taken if travelling to sub-tropical regions of the world. However, taking these drugs offers you only part protection - to further substantially reduce the risk of malarial infection it is extremely important to make use of mosquito nets and insect repellents to prevent you from being bitten in the first place. Please also bear in mind that mosquitoes carry other diseases in addition to malaria, and the only way to prevent infection is to use nets and repellents to stop you from being bitten.
These Anti-Insect products are not just about travel - mosquitoes are found throughout the world (including the UK) and our range of nets and repellents also protects you against other insects, including midges and sandflies, and in particular ticks. Ticks are a growing menace throughout Europe and North America and many now carry Lyme bacteria, and can pass on Lyme disease to a human host - all our repellents are effective against ticks and the Care Plus Bugsox offer possibly the best defence available against their threat.

Derby, KS (Wichita) old school riders
I rode back in the mid 80's and luved it and slowly I am getting back into it. Got a few bikes I am working on and started riding again over the weekend.
Wanted to see if I had any other old school riders in my area (30's-40's) that still get out there and make it happen. Just interested in finding people with the common interest of 80's BMX/freestyle to ride with.
Hit me up if you are in the area and interested!

Do you wanna drive Twitter traffic to your blog like it's 5pm in Los Angeles?
Okay, I understand this post is not for everybody. I wanted to write it anyway because I've had a few people ask about my own experience, so I decided to share some of the things I do.
Twitter can become your blog's best friend when it comes to traffic. I'm not suggesting that you use it for that purpose only but, if you run a blog and feel like you could be getting a little more love from it, perhaps you should adjust your strategy and integrate some of these tips.
There are some basics that we are going to skip, like having a good descriptive bio, link to your blog, take advantage of the real estate on the background, etc.
I promise you two things with this post:
- While I can't promise specific results, I can tell you that if you follow this advice, you should be able to at least start moving the needle
- And I will not use the word "Viral" =)

Bobby Lee
At 18 years of age Lee moved out of his parents' home and took jobs in restaurants and coffee shops in the San Diego area, while also attending Palomar College for a brief period. In 1994 the coffee shop for which he was working closed. "I just went next door to get a job," he said, "which was The Comedy Store in San Diego" (also known as the La Jolla Comedy Store).After a few months of working odd jobs at the club he decided to try stand-up during one of their amateur nights. Within a year of doing regular comedy sets he got offers to open for both Pauly Shore and Carlos Mencia. Lee also went on to work regularly at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles, a comedy club owned by Pauly Shore's mother Mitzi.
Lee has admitted in several interviews that his parents had hoped he would continue on with the family business and were less-than supportive of his comedic pursuits at first. During a podcast interview conducted by fellow actor and comedian Joe Rogan on February 1, 2011, Lee stated that during the first few years he did stand-up his parents barely spoke to him, however after his appearance on the The Tonight Show with Jay Leno his father called him and apologized for not supporting his comedy career. Lee's parents currently live in Phoenix, Arizona. Lee is known to have included his family in some of his work: His younger brother has appeared in several non-speaking roles on MADtv and his entire family has appeared in a skit on the show. Lee also pitched a sitcom to Comedy Central in 2007 about a Korean family which was to star his very own family. -
Brian Moses
Brian Moses is a comedian who has performed at comedy clubs and colleges across the country. He was a finalist in the Orange County's Funniest Person Competition a few years ago, and he has opened for several amazing comedians including Cheech & Chong, Sarah Silverman, and Bill Burr. Brian's parents worked for the Navy and the Department of Defense while he was growing up. As a military brat, he moved around a lot as a kid and needed to be funny in order to make new friends. He has since turned that skill into his career. One of his goals is to become friends with more black people so he can get his hair braided for free. Brian lives in Los Angeles and regularly performs at The Comedy Store.
Cort McCown
Cort McCown is an American actor and comedian.
McCown debuted on the 1985 hit film Teen Wolf with a role as one of Michael J. Fox's basketball teammates. He followed that with a supporting role as Quint on the 1987 hit teen film Can't Buy Me Love. In 1989 he had roles in the films Beverly Hills Brats and One Man Force. And 1992 comedy/horror film Auntie Lee's Meat Pies, with Pat Morita.
McCown has also appeared on television shows like Hunter, JAG, Beverly Hills, 90210, and on the soap opera's Passions and The Young and Restless. In 2010, he returned to TV with a role on the FX sitcom The League. He recently completed a Feature Film with the Sundance Award
Winning Barnes Brothers.
In 2001 McCown began touring as a Stand Up Comedian, opening for acts like Andrew Dice Clay and Harland Williams. He is a regular at Los Angeles clubs The World Famous Comedy Store and Laugh Factory.
In 2003 McCown created The Playboy Comedy Tour that was at The Palms Hotel in Las Vegas for 9 years, winning "Best of Las Vegas" several times. He was also the Morning Show host for Playboy Radio when it debuted on Sirius Satellite Radio.
McCown was recently featured in Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Festival in Nashville.
In 2014 McCown performed at the prestigious Edinburgh Fringe Festival in the show American…ish, and The Amsterdam International Comedy Festival, as well as a Tour in England.
Currently McCown has a Podcast with fellow Comedian Joe Bartnick titled "Insensitivity Training" on All Things Comedy Network. He can also be seen touring clubs across the country performing Standup Comedy.

Cort was recently on SIRIUS SATELLITE RADIO where he Co-Hosted "THE PLAYBOY MORNING SHOW" for PLAYBOY RADIO CHANNEL 198. He was also featured on "The Girls Next Door" when Hef came to Vegas to see "Playboy Comedy".
Mike Young
Mike is the creator and host of the "Young American Comedy Tour," an international tour showcasing stand-up comedians. After performing at the Montreal Comedy Festival, Mike developed sitcoms with Warner Bros. and ABC. As a writer, Young has written a one-hour for HBO, the feature film "Right Angle," with Aaron Paul, Marcia Gay Harden and James Woods and is currently developing with Anthony Zuiker. Mike has been seen on "Last Call with Carson Daly," "Live Nude Comedy" on Showtime and "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson."
Steve Simeone
Steve Simeone grew up in Suburban Philadelphia, the middle of three brothers. He developed his unique high energy style of storytelling around the family dinner table competing for laughs on a nightly basis. Whether in the classroom or at home, Steve always seemed happiest making people laugh, even if it meant he sometimes got into trouble.
After graduating from Loyola College in Maryland as a member of the National Marketing Honor Society, Steve accepted a job in banking. This was not a good fit and didn't last long. His brief stint of being a real grown up, gave way to a dream job with the Philadelphia Eagles. Now this was way more fun than banking. But those who are destined for the stage, are destined for the stage. After a few Open Mics, came the title of "Funniest Comic in Philly". Some things are simply meant to be. Celebrity judge Pauly Shore invited Steve to Hollywood and The World Famous Comedy Store. He was now making $25 a night working the door. Steve always seemed happiest making people laugh, even if it meant he sometimes starved.
Steve has spent the last ten years slowly honing the craft of Stand Up Comedy. He is a regular performer at Hollywood's most prestigious Comedy Clubs, The Comedy Store, The Improv, and The Laugh Factory. When he's not headlining clubs on his own he can be seen on the road with The Playboy Comedy Tour, Pauly Shore, and Andrew Dice Clay. A proud member of "Comics On Duty", Steve has entertained our troops around the globe on four continents. And yes, Steve has been on television (NBC's "Spy TV", on Current TV's "The Schmoes Know" and TBS's "Minding The Store") but as they say, the best is yet to come. Steve always seemed happiest making people laugh, even if it meant he got to tour with his childhood hero "Rowdy" Roddy Piper. Be on the lookout for Steve and this professional wrestling Icon at a Comedy Club near you.

Walk the Moon Have Arrived
January 28th, 2013Walk the Moon – Music Hall of Williamsburg – January 25, 2013
If Friday's show was any indication, the time to hype Walk the Moon as becoming "the next big thing" has since past—because there were signs it's already true. First, many in the audience brought their own face paint, which the band used to do as a way to engage with fans. Second, the first few rows of kids practically pulled muscles trying to Instagram the set list the second it was taped to the floor prior to the show's start. Third, the band had a small army helping set up their stage and equipment. (Who says major labels are useless these days?) Fourth, and perhaps the biggest sign of all, was that the packed-to-the-brim Music Hall of Williamsburg was teeming with excitement, energy and joy throughout the four-piece's energetic set—the first of three sold-out weekend shows.
With all that considered, it's easy to imagine a flashy band, but the Ohio natives proved to be anything but. They focused on strong, multipart vocals, catchy songwriting as viral as the videos they make, and phenomenal stage presence. As lead singer Nicholas Petricca rotated between his two keyboards and a neon-painted floor tom drum throughout the night, guitarist Eli Maiman and bassist Kevin Ray bounced around their sides of the stage while drummer Sean Waugaman loudly crashed his skins and cymbals. This all came together perfectly on each of Walk the Moon's songs, especially the vocally strong opener, "The Liftaway," and during their biggest hit so far, "Anna Sun." But picking favorites would be foolish, because there were no dull moments. For those observing the band from a distance, their rise inspired a feeling of: I hope they can keep this up on the next record. But Walk the Moon have rewritten the script to: I can't wait to see what they do next. —Sean O'Kane

Really Fun to Watch
June 20th, 2012Walk the Moon – Mercury Lounge – June 19, 2012
On one of the biggest days in their still-short tenure as a buzz band in the indie-rock scene, Walk the Moon came to Mercury Lounge last night to celebrate the debut of their self-titled release on the heels of a Late Show with David Letterman taping earlier in the day. The Ohio dance-rockers filled the venue to its limits for an hour-long set that showcased all the reasons why they're earning that lusted-after title of the next big thing.
Most of the show was spent belting out tracks from the new album—which is mostly a rerecorded version of their original full-length, I Want! I Want!—as the band started with the staggered vocals of "The Liftaway" and then matched plenty of quick drumming with fluttery keyboard lines during "Quesadilla." From the beginning of the Panic! at the Disco–tinged "Jenny," it was clear the face-painted crowd (a staple of the group's shows) was filled with already dedicated fans, as they screamed out the sing-along part lead singer Nicholas Petricca was trying to teach before he could even finish. The few breaks in the dance party came in the form of "Iscariot," a slower-paced, vocal-driven track that sounds like it could be a Bon Iver B-side, and "Fixin'," a newer song that shed some light on where the band's musical maturation is likely headed.
Before the set finished, the audience went wild for another newer track, "Shiver Shiver," which cranked up the energy just in time for the infectious song the band owes its sudden rise to, "Anna Sun." But Walk the Moon didn't need to prove anything last night: They've already showed that they're more than just one song. And while the group celebrated a major step with their excellent set at Mercury Lounge, from here on out, they'll be performing in bigger New York City venues. —Sean O'Kane

The Dilemma of Charlotte Farrow is the second novel in Olivia Newport's "Avenue of Dream Series." The book is a delightful read. It ties to the first book in the series, The Pursuit of Lucy Banning, but is completely able to stand alone if you haven't read the first.
With Lucy Banning married to Will Edwards and off to Europe on her honeymoon, Charlotte Farrow settles in for a summer of serving the Banning family. Charlotte's secret has been well kept and her son, Henry, has been well cared for by Mrs. Given.
Just days before the Banning family is to return to Chicago from their lake house, Mrs. Given shows up unexpectedly at the mansion when a family emergency prevents her from continuing to care for the boy. Charlotte is desperate to find a solution since the knowledge that she has a child can cause her to lose her position. As the rest of Chicago is caught up in the glamour and excitement of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, Charlotte searches for a way to care for Henry.
Olivia Newport weaves an intriguing tale of a mother's love and devotion in this book. Her writing will transport the reader back to the 19th century. Her story comes alive with characters that are well developed and realistic.
Newport does a good job of defining the tension of the time between the staff and the wealthy families they served. She has done her homework, and it is evident as she skillfully melds history and fiction throughout her book. I found the details of the exposition and Mr. Ferris's famous wheel added depth and entertainment to the story. The wheel itself acts as a nonhuman character that plays a role in the resolution of this story. **Disclaimer: This book was provided to me free of charge by the publisher for my honest review.

Charlotte Farrow is a wonderful sequel to The Pursuit of Lucy Banning though it's about Charlotte! I became entirely wrapped up in the
hopes, fears and dreams of Charlotte right there on Prairie Avenue in Chicago as the story takes her through familiar streets, neighboring
famous Chicagoans and set during the Colombian Expo World's Fair - it was great and easy to read. Easy to follow and yet some surprises
along the way. I hope there is a sequel with the next chapters about Charlotte's life and more about her interaction with Lucy Banning!

Once I read The Pursuit of Lucy Banning last year, I knew I had to get my hands on the next book in the series as soon as it was available! While Lucy's story gives readers insight about life "above stairs," Charlotte's story delves into life "below stairs." As different as the stories were, they were both outstanding, and I think I loved The Dilemma of Charlotte Farrow even more!
The historical aspects of this novel were fascinating, and I was impressed by the amount of research that must have gone into writing this novel. All the talk of workers' rights and how it affected the wealthy as well as the servants in their homes cast a new light onto that issue for me—much different than my history and business classes in college did.
While the romantic aspects weren't as strong as I expected, I still loved watching how Charlotte and Archie's relationship progressed and matured. The other characters were interesting as well, and my fingers are crossed that we'll get to know Sarah better in the next book in the series.
Fans of historical fiction are sure to enjoy this novel (though I would recommend reading the series in order). [5 stars]

REVIEWED BY: AprilR, My Book Addiction and More/My Book Addiction Reviews
Posted January 24, 2013
What a fascinating book! Set in Chicago at the same time as Chicago's World Fair (or the Columbian Exposition) in 1893, this book has the fair as a theme, though it's not really the main point. I love learning fascinating history through fascinating historical fiction books! This book had a riveting dash of suspense. If you haven't read The Pursuit of Lucy Banning, book one in the Avenue of Dreams series, don't worry – this one can be read and enjoyed as a stand-alone, which is exactly what I did. Charlotte is a delightful heroine, and Archie a touching hero in this sweet story.

Olivia Newport in her new book, "The Dilemma of Charlotte Farrow" Book Two in the Avenue of Dreams series published by Revell gives us a romance set in 1893 Chicago.
From the Back Cover: The whole world is coming to Chicago. Charlotte's whole world is coming down around her.
While the rest of Chicago focuses on the enormous spectacle of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, Charlotte Farrow's attentions are entirely on one small boy-her boy-whom she has kept a secret from her wealthy employers for nearly a year.
When the woman who has been caring for her son abruptly returns him to the opulent Banning home, Charlotte must decide whether to come clean and face dismissal or keep her secret while the Bannings decide the child's fate. Can she face the truth of her past and open her heart to a future of her own? Or will life's struggles determine her path?
This compelling story of courage, strength, and tender romance captures the tension between the glittering wealthy class and the hardworking servants who made their lives comfortable.
History comes alive as Ms. Newport opens up the world of 1893 Chicago. Charlotte Farrow works for Lucy Banning, from the first book in this series, and she has a number of secrets from her past, primary of which is an infant son who is suddenly returned to her. Now, as her past is threatening to expose her Charlotte is struggling to keep her child. "The Dilemma of Charlotte Farrow" is a story of secrets and a past that has not been fully dealt with and how God has to deal with it to bring about healing and moving forward all set against the backdrop of the World's Fair in Chicago. Ms. Newport has an amazing way with her characters as she breathes life into them. We get so caught up with the them and their stories that we want there to be more even as we see the book coming to an end. "The Dilemma of Charlotte Farrow" is even better than the first book. I recommend it highly and I am looking forward to Ms. Newport's next book.

After Charlotte escaped a bad marriage and an even worse husband, she found employment with the Banning family in Chicago. Her employer and confidante, Lucy, helped her find a place to keep her infant son and kept her secret from the rest of the household. But while Lucy is in Paris on her honeymoon, her son is abruptly returned to her. Charlotte knows that if she can wait until Lucy returns, the problem will be solved. She struggles to keep the infant near her while trying to keep his identity secret. But just when she thinks she may have everything under near-control, a man returns from her past. He has the power to ruin Charlotte's young life.
On rare occasions, the sequel is better. This is one of those rare occasions. I read and reviewed The Pursuit of Lucy Banning last year, and liked it (4 stars). Somehow, this novel surpasses the first one. Ms. Newport continues to paint a vivid picture of 1893 Chicago and the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition; she knows her subject well. But her understanding and depiction of servants of that time sets this work apart. Women of Charlotte's social class did not have many rights or prospects at that time, and the discovery of an infant would have diminished even those. The author has created such a realistic portrayal of the household that the reader will feel as if they know the characters. Of course, being a fan of the BBC's Downton Abbey, I could not help but project their faces and voices onto some of Ms. Newport's characters. In my head, Mr. Penard sounded like Carson, Sarah looked and sounded like Daisy, and Archie bears a striking resemblance to Tom Branson, Lord Grantham's chauffeur and son-in-law. I share this not to change the subject, but to support my recommendation of this novel for Downton Abbey fans.
Recommended for mature adolescents and up, along with the aforementioned Downton Abbey fans.
5 stars

This book started with The Pursuit of Lucy Banning, when Charlotte Farrow arrived in Chicago with her infant son. With the help of Lucy, who found a woman to care for "Henry", she was able to go into Service at the Mansion.
This book opens with the woman who was caring for Henry, literally dropping him off, as she had to leave home. Now Charlotte has a big dilemma, she is not allowed to be married or have a child and keep her job. Lucy would have helped her, but she is in Paris on her honeymoon.
To top all things the evil man who is her husband has discovered her, and she is worried about the safety of her baby.
Staying with the family at the mansion is a relative of the family, there for a visit to find a husband, who takes a real shine to the baby. Will Charlotte tell who the baby is or do as Moses mother did years ago to save him?
There is also a sweet love story here, but will Charlotte be able to open her heart, or will her husband find her? Travel along with Charlotte as we visit 1890's Chicago, and the closing days of World's Columbia Exposition. Delightful, and a real page turning fast read.

VIDEO: Brad Pitt's Chanel No. 5 Director Just as Confused as Us
Apparently director Joe Wright was just as confused as the rest of us regarding Brad Pitt's Chanel No. 5 ads.
Taran Killam has been brilliantly spoofing the ads on Saturday Night Live. Killam recently spoke to Vulture and when asked about it said:
"When [Wright and I] spoke, he had yet to see the spoofs, but I think he had been surrounded by enough people who were like, 'They're good, they're good, they're good,' so he was a good sport. He was very gracious, and he said, 'I didn't actually know what they were about either,' because it's just his job to show up, and he's given the copy."
Watch one of Killam's spoofs below!

function predClass = Credit_Rating(newData) % This function uses the previously constructed classification ensemble to % assign credit ratings to new customers. % We start by loading the classifier. load('CreditRatingClassifier.mat') % Next, we trim the |newData| so that only the three significant variables % are passed to the classifier: newData = newData(:, [2 4 6]); % To predit the credit rating for this new data, we call the |predict| % method on the classifier. The method returns two arguments, the predicted % class and the classification score. We certainly want to get both output % arguments, since the classification scores contain information on how % certain the predicted ratings seem to be. predClass = predict(b, newData); %#function TreeBagger

Salmonella Undermines Hedgehogs' Cuteness Overload
Originally published on Fri February 1, 2013 2:19 pm
Salmonella is one of the most common illnesses people get from food. Undercooked ground beef is risky. And some of the biggest recalls ever involved eggs potentially contaminated by the bacteria.
Now the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is warning that pet hedgehogs can transmit salmonella, too. Hedgehogs? Were the pet turtles carrying salmonella not cute enough?
Evidently not.
Since January 2012, there have been 20 reports of infections with a "historically rare" strain of salmonella that appears linked to hedgehogs, according to an account in the latest Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
Four people were hospitalized. A Washington man in his 90s died. Almost half the people who got sick were kids 10 or younger.
Public health officials advise that hedgehog owners wash their hands well after handling hedgehogs or anything the critters may have touched. Adults should make sure kids and their pals do too.
Hedgehogs carrying salmonella don't necessarily look or act sick. The bacteria are transmitted in hedgehog poop.
For that reason it's probably obvious, but don't let hedgehogs run around in the kitchen or anywhere else where food is prepared or eaten. And that includes bathing hedgehogs in the kitchen sink.
Though the advice is quite sensible overall, there's one piece that could be very difficult to stick with because the animals are just so darn cute. "Do not snuggle or kiss hedgehogs," the CDC says.
