Live blogging from the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards
The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards are in the books. Pop music critic Chris Richards was reporting live at the ceremony in Los Angeles while Post staff writer David Malitz watched from the newsroom. Together, they pondered -- and answered -- some bigger questions about the ceremony while offering a running commentary on the evening's events. See how it all unfolded below...
11:39 p.m.: How did Arcade Fire react to its upset win for Album of the Year? "OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. Thank you EVERYONE." the band tweeted. Leave it to Kanye West to say what most people were thinking: "#Arcade fire!!!!!!!!!! There is hope!!! I feel like we all won when something like this happens! [EXPLETIVE] AWESOME!"
Check back later for the full wrap up from L.A. Tomorrow on the blog we'll have a rundown on the best and worst performances of the night.
11:25 p.m.: WOW. It was a night of surprises. Indie wins. Arcade Fire takes home the award for Album of the Year. The coronation of Eminem is a complete non-event. Lady Antebellum can't complete the sweep. The World's Next Huge Rock Band is officially crowned. Arcade Fire plays out the show with "Ready to Start." In predictable Grammy fashion they cut the band off to thank a sponsor. The show ends with the best band winning.
11:18 p.m.: That performance will almost certainly earn Arcade Fire plenty of new fans. They were at their most U2/Springsteen overblown best on "Month of May," with a bit more fury than bombast, and it played especially well on TV. The evening was short on actual rock performances and that was clearly the best. In the extremely unlikely event they take home the night's top prize in a few minutes then they will have "done it the right way" by staying in an independent label and attaining their fame the old-fashioned way. And when they get beat out by Eminem or Lady Antebellum, it lets them keep some indie cred for losing out to the top Billboard star -- all while working to take the honor with their next album.
11:07 p.m.: It turns out members of the Recording Academy like Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" as much as our own Chris Richards. The song just won Record of the Year after taking Song of the Year earlier. Does this make the album of the same name the new favorite for Album of the Year?
11:02 p.m.: Yes, Rihanna is singing again. She does appear on roughly 23% of all songs on radio, so it does make sense. More fire, more hip-swiveling and this time she brought Drake along.
10:52 p.m.: No surprise as Eminem takes home the Grammy for best rap album. Also, if Nicki Minaj could present every award that would make the evening a lot more enjoyable.
10:40 p.m.: Say this for Mick Jagger -- few singers cover more ground when they sing. He skipped and sauntered over every bit of the Staples Center stage during his tribute to the late Solomon Burke. Afterwards, the singer from Train applauds and thinks, "He's like the good version of what I do."
10:25 p.m.: There is a MAJOR UPSET in the Best New Artist category as jazz newcomer Esperanza Spalding -- the category's longshot according to every bookmaker -- beat out Justin Bieber, Drake, Florence + the Machine and Mumford and Sons. This is a legit shocker. Good thing it was past bedtime for most of Bieber's fans so they didn't have to see that happen.
10:08 p.m.: The first major award of the evening goes to Lady Antebellum who win Song of the Year for "Need You Now." This is the songwriting award; Record of the Year is for performance. The country superstars co-wrote their award-winning hit. Before that we were subjected to a lifeless two-song performance by Katy Perry. She can't sing and she can't dance; when she doesn't have fireworks shooting from her chest, it turns out she's just not that interesting.
9:55 p.m.: On Twitter, The Post's J. Freedom du Lac says, "The brilliant Cee Lo Green answers the question of what would happen if the San Diego Chicken got with a Mardi Gras Indian." We get the "Forget You" version of his explicit hit and still don't quite understand why Gwyneth Paltrow was singing with him or why the Muppets were involved, but can't complain about that performance.
9:45 p.m.: Some things that just happened -- Lea Michele said the word "wimmers" and we furrowed our brow. Lady Antebellum performed a tribute to Teddy Pendergrass and we scratched our head. Lady Antebellum performed and we yawned. The country superstars then predictably took home the award for best country album and we nodded our head because so far, perform = win.
9:35 p.m.: His voice may have more in common with the Muppets performing later than any of the evening's other singers, but Bob Dylan is still Bob Dylan. He concludes a tribute to acoustic music with a croaky, hammed-up version of "Maggie's Farm," and it rules. The Avett Bros. turned in a solid performance as well; Mumford & Sons suffered from the same over-sincerity that usual plagues the group.
9:15 p.m.: Muse defeats Neil Young for best rock album. And people wonder why we struggle to take the Grammys seriously year after year.
9:05 p.m.: Janelle Monae, predictably, turns in the first breakout performance of the evening with "Cold War," earning a standing ovation from the Staples Center crowd. She can be opening, headlining, in a club, in a concert hall, in an arena on national TV -- she will kill it every time. Bruno Mars wasn't bad with a bit of old-school soul Sam Cooke throwback. B.o.B. didn't have a pompadour like the other two, but he did have a monocle.
8:45 p.m.: To answer another one of our questions below ... Miranda Lambert burst onto the country scene breathing fire but has slowly embraced her middle-of-the-roadness as she's ascended the country stardom ladder. That performance won't be one that people talk too much about tomorrow. Muse delivered it's usual empty blast of bombastic special-effects rock. We remain unimpressed.
8:30 p.m.: LadyGaga LadyGaga LadyGaga LadyGaga... With her new single landing online on Friday and a "60 Minutes" interview with Anderson Cooper airing before the Grammy telecast, will we be tired of Lady Gaga before the Grammys even start?
We may have hit the Lady Gaga oversaturation point tonight. That red carpet arrival in the giant egg turned out to be a bigger spectacle moment than anything during her performance, which seemed oddly perfunctory for her. And it reminded us that "Born This Way" sure is a blatant rip-off of Madonna's "Express Yourself." We'll see if she can carry momentum up to her album release.
8:20 p.m.: Celebritology runs down the opening tribute to Aretha Franklin.
7:35 p.m.: The Grammys are about ready to kick off but there is already plenty to report. More then 90% of the awards -- that's about 100 -- have already been handed out in a pre-telecast event. It was a lot of bad news for the locals. Godfather of Go-Go Chuck Brown couldn't pull off the upset in best R&B performance by a duo or group with vocals, losing out to Sade. Raheem DeVaughn also came up short, losing to the Roots & John Legend. And newcomer Carolyn Malachi will also go home empty handed, losing to Cee-Lo Green. The only quasi-local winner was Chad Franscoviak, who won for his production work on John Mayer's "Battle Studies."
Some other notable winners from the early portion: A humbled and honored Mavis Staples took home the award for best Americana album for the Jeff Tweedy-produced "You Are Not Alone." Arcade Fire's "The Suburbs" was good enough to be nominated for Album of the Year but not good enough to win Best Alternative Album. That award went to the Black Keys for "Brothers." The Black Keys made it two-for-two over Arcade Fire by besting them in best rock performance by a duo or group. Grammys logic at its finest. Neil Young won his first ever Grammy for music, taking home the award for best rock song. (He previous won for packaging.) Young lost out to Paul McCartney in the best rock solo vocal performance, though. Jay-Z and John Legend each scored three early trophies. Here's a rundown of the early winners.
And in what is clearly the most important pre-show news, Lady Gaga showed up inside a giant egg being carried by shirtless man servants. Of course she did.
1. JustinBieber JustinBieber JustinBieber... With his new 3-D concert film in theaters this week, has America reached Bieberian overload? If he takes home the Grammy for best new artist, will we officially be fed up with him?
2. LadyGagaLadyGagaLadyGagaLadyGaga... With her new single landing online on Friday and a "60 Minutes" interview with Anderson Cooper airing before the Grammy telecast, will we be tired of Lady Gaga before the Grammys even start?
3. Taylor Swift's "Fearless" took home album of the year at last year's Grammys -- a huge win for country music. But at last year's Grammy ceremony, the country music performances were drowned out by bells, whistles and a Black Eyed Peas' laser show. Will tonight's performances by Miranda Lambert and Lady Antebellum make a mark?
4. Up against the likes of Eminem and Lady Gaga, Arcade Fire's "The Suburbs" is a long shot for 2011's album of the year. But despite the group's massive mainstream success, the Canadian troupe is still viewed as an indie rock underdog. Could a Grammy loss actually be better for the band's career than a Grammy win?
5. With ten nominations, Eminem hopes to add to the eleven statuettes already sitting on his mantle. But as he approaches 40, is Eminem the old guard now? Will a big night for Mr. Mathers feel like 2001, when Steely Dan won album of the year?

I hope to be up there next year with the soundtrack to GETTYMOVIE the Getty/Hitler trilogy ...!
I earned the Getty Oil Company shareholders A Billion Bucks
On the Reserve acquisition; the way they treat me -- it really sucks!
As the Getty inheritors bask in glee;
All I asked for was that they look after me.
A billion dollars they earned on Reserve
My fee I surely deserve.
It turns out J.P. Getty may have been a Nazi;
His family even goes back to Germany.
With Hitler, Goring & Goebbels he did stand;
While trying to undermine the American land!
For paintings & artifacts he did receive
With his oil he was able to deceive?
Hoover & the FBI and Roosevelt they knew
That J.P. Getty & espionage he drew!
Many a young lad and Jew did die
As planes dropped bombs from the sky.
For years while Getty sat in Berlin
He may have committed many a sin.
The ashes and smoke from the chimneys it rose
While old man Getty sat cozy; he chose.
With artwork held tightly under his arm
Still dripping in blood -- as the real owner met harm.
Into the ovens & on meat-hooks, bullets between the eyes
Listen very carefully you can still hear their cries!
While the Gettys sit in England; at their estate at Wormsley
And Gordon sings in San Francisco
With his 727 in tow.
The Getty museum sits atop Malibu
While the corpses of World War 2 scream -- J.P. Getty -- We know you!

Can someone please tell me, why is Kim Kardashian famous and why is she at the Grammys? The same goes for Snookie.
They both are poor white trash. Kim made a sex tape with Brandy's black brother Ray J.
This woman have no morals and she likes to fornicate. There is a place for both these women in the end and it will be in Satan's house.
The Church Lady could tell you the same.

"9:15 p.m.: Muse defeats Neil Young for best rock album. And people wonder why we struggle to take the Grammys seriously year after year."
Speak for yourself hippie. Muse's performance was best of the evening and lots more enjoyable than Neil Young's chronic boring nostalgic whine.

While watching the first episode of FLCL, I couldn't help but interpret Naota's pointy cranial protrusions as being Freudian symbols of his advancing puberty. After this second episode, I'm almost seeing a Kafka-esque quality. I say this because I'm not entirely clear on whether or not Mamimi is an arsonist herself, a frequent victim of arson or the host for some kind of fire-starting bugaboo. It's hard to tell, given the spoken-word, free-association nature of Naota's whole explanation of his town's history of arson. I'm leaning to the last theory (regarding the bugaboo) because Naota seems to perform a sort of exorcism on her while she's performing that cigarette ritual and the super-sized bio-mecha in this instance seems to be the "unclean spirit" he's drawn out of her like venom from a wound. The fact that she keeps referring to the servant mecha as "a god" only furthers that interpretation.
This show elicited a genuine "Ha!" from me when Naota's uncle goes on his whole convoluted metaphysical rant about the nature of their house servant mecha and the kid says something like, "Never mind him. He was the same way when he was talking about the greater meaning of Eva." It's nice to see the series blend the fantasy with the reality here and have the characters actually talking about other anime. I get particular amusement from that reference since I knew a kid in high school who was a huge EVANGELION fan and he'd share these rambling ideas about his own stories inspired by the series and he would just go on, and on, and on, and on.
The bit where the mecha craps Noata out was funny too, and I get a thrill out of seeing them combine earlier into a more powerful entity, as is the conceit of so many sentai shows. Is there some cultural conceit in Japan about robots with halos that I'm missing, though? I remember that androids in that TIME OF EVE show having halos and it seems like too specific an image to be a coincidence. Anyway, look out for my comments on episode #3 tomorrow.

The scandal, uncovered by FBI agents working with an undercover investigator and a cooperating witness, allegedly involved a series of secret meetings in restaurants, hotels and Smith's Senate office in Albany, New York in which bribes were discussed or money exchanged.
Court documents released on Tuesday showed the people alternating between brazen and cautious behavior as they solicited and received bribes.
At a September meeting at a Manhattan restaurant at which he received $7,500 in cash, City Councilman Halloran told a confidential witness working with the FBI, "Money is what greases the wheels – good, bad or indifferent."
At other times they were warier. During a February meeting with an undercover FBI agent he believed to be a real estate developer, Queens Republican official Tabone frisked the agent to check for a recording device. He was unsuccessful and the conversation was recorded anyway.
Prosecutors said that two of the politicians charged in the scheme - Tabone and Savino - received a total of $40,000 in bribes for promising to support Smith. Halloran, the Queens Councilman, was said to have gotten $20,500 for setting up a meeting with people Smith believed were supporters but were in fact the cooperating witness and an undercover FBI agent.
Two of the other politicians arrested on Tuesday, Jasmin and Desmaret, were charged for their role in a related bribery incident involving a proposed real estate project in Spring Valley, a suburban town located about 35 miles (56 km) north of New York City.
Smith's motivation was winning a spot on the ballot as a Republican mayoral contender, since that primary is seen as considerably less competitive than the Democratic contest in liberal New York.
In 2001, billionaire Michael Bloomberg - a lifelong Democrat - won the right to run for mayor as a Republican, though he later abandoned his party affiliation altogether. As Bloomberg prepares to leave City Hall after three terms in office, a handful of Democrats, including Smith, have sought Republican support for their candidacies.
The most prominent contenders for mayor include City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, former Comptroller Bill Thompson, current Comptroller John Liu and former Metropolitan Transportation Authority Chairman Joseph Lhota.
To be listed on the ballot of the other political party, a New York politician must win the approval of the party chairman in at least three of the city's five counties.
In one January meeting, Smith, who has represented his eastern Queens district since 2000, and the unnamed cooperating witness discussed the cost of the bribes, prosecutors said.
"It's worth it as long as they're going to do it," Smith said, according to court papers released on Tuesday. "He can't tell you he's going to do it and then doesn't do it … You know, don't waste a pretty penny."
Halloran helped him in hopes of securing a position as a deputy police commissioner or deputy mayor in a potential Smith administration, U.S. Attorney Bharara, said.
The chairman of the state Republican party, Ed Cox, called the arrests "deeply concerning."
"The integrity of the electoral process for the voters of New York City must be preserved," Cox said in a statement.

Troubling Decisionmaking at Little Moir's Food Shack
Categories: Rants
Photos by Riki Altman |
My best girlfriend and I have always had a long-distance relationship. She lives in the same state, but somehow we always end up at least five counties away. Now she's up in Volusia, but we make excuses to see each other regularly. This time, I had to pick up a new car in Palm Beach, so she schlepped down to meet me in Jupiter. Besides, we had lots to catch up on now that she's recently dumped her man and I'm committed to a guy who I hope will be The One. I used our reunion as the perfect excuse to dine at Little Moir's Food Shack, a restaurant I had heard so much about.
Now LMFS is no shack, but it's no Taj Mahal either. The spot is tucked in a strip mall and, from the outside -- to steal the words of Halle Berry's character Ginger Knowles in Swordfish -- it "sure don't look like much." But inside is near pandemonium. Even on a Tuesday night, it was packed with customers, taking up every table and barstool. From what we could deduce, no one inside this
small space with tomato-colored walls, tropical artwork, and signs
reading things like "What if the hokey pokey is really what it's all
about?" was here to just have a drink either; they were all about the
eating. It's all about the specials. |
As we waited, she and I talked about -- what else? -- men. Her ex-husband, though a perfectly good guy, didn't fill her love tank. He landscaped, cooked, cleaned, and brought home the bacon but was more interested in spending time with his son (from the first marriage) than my buddy. Within months, she had found someone else who seemed his exact opposite. Dude Two had no kids or ex-wife and wanted to spend time with her (and was great in the sack, to boot), but he didn't lift a finger to help, and his lack of assistance left her busy running errands and picking up after him.
Grouper cheeks: A great way to get over a breakup. |
Now, my guy has a lot of desirable qualities for sure -- he is sweet as can be, loves yours truly, and has his priorities in order -- but he also hates helping around the house, often won't eat anything that wouldn't appear on a fast-food menu, and leaves all the bookkeeping to me. (Not a smart move, by the way.) As my girlfriend and I made a verbal wish list of desirable male attributes, we dug into the spicy, creamy, smoky coated pasta and my fried fishy deliciousness with just the right combo of temperatures and flavors. Yep, this was a place we could commit to for a lifetime of return visits. But as we chewed, we wondered aloud whether our men of the moment or future would make us want to do the same with them. Fingers crossed.
What we decided next, as we shoveled down a glorious slice of chocolate Whosiwhatzit?!?, a brownie disguised as cake with dollops of ganache, fresh whipped cream, toasted coconut, and berries, was that perhaps we just have to resign to regularly refresh our wish lists, just like LMFS does with its whopping list of daily specials. After all, there are tons of fish in the sea, we hear, but if they're not going to be top quality and good enough to satiate our desires day after day, it may be tough to keep on throwing out our lines.

Walking and Talking
September 3, 2014 | by Sadie Stein
Growing up around wisecracking old relatives, you learn early how to craft a comeback. It doesn't need to be that witty. It doesn't even need to make sense. It just needs to be kind of sassy and really fast, to show you're wise to the game or something.
"Just who do you think you are?" an elderly uncle might demand, inexplicably. Or, "I bet you think you deserve some candy!" In such situations, you can show no fear. When you're a small child, this kind of obligatory badinage is awful. But it's a skill—if you can call it a skill—that stands you in good stead as an adult.
However, even those of us trained to keep our cool in the face of faux-belligerent idiocy are occasionally stumped. Despite my years of experience and calibration, there are, specifically, three situations that leave me mute and baffled. Read More »
Any Nosegays, You Blockhead?
January 27, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
The British dramatist Samuel Foote was born today in 1720. Foote was a playwright in the snickering, rabble-rousing tradition—a dry wit who was always getting himself into trouble. He performed plays without licensing them, basically the eighteenth-century equivalent of smuggling your camcorder into a movie theater; he went riding and was thrown from his horse, resulting in the loss of one of his legs; he spent some time in debtors' prison; he's rumored to have made passes at a footman or two in his day; and much of his writing features withering, thinly veiled caricatures of wealthy people, which really pissed off those wealthy people, to say nothing of their wealthy coteries. Most important, Foote is responsible for having coined the phrase "the Grand Panjandrum," as refined a piece of nonsense as I can remember having heard. (He did it off the cuff, having faltered in the recitation of a text he'd "memorized.")
What better way to pay tribute to the man than with an excerpt? Two centuries before Spiro Agnew's "nattering nabobs," there was simply The Nabob, Foote's 1772 comedy about an aristocrat newly returned to London from the Orient. You could dip into the play anywhere and come up with comic gold; its brand of buffoonery is never out of fashion. Read More »

D. H. Lawrence's "Pomegranate"
July 11, 2012 | by Eli Mandel
Sometimes in life you get yelled at. No matter your moral fiber, it can't be avoided all the time. It happens in Marine Corps boot camp; it happens in rush-hour subway cars; it happens if your mother catches you reading Lady Chatterly's Lover at an impressionable young age. But one place you don't expect to get harangued, one place where the lid's supposed to stay on the pot, is poetry.
So cracking open D. H. Lawrence's seemingly innocuous Birds, Beasts, Flowers is a bit of a shock. Lawrence is, of course, better known for his novels and short stories; verse can unleash in him an irritating Whitmanesque mania, an exhibitionist verbal autoeroticism. But that's not the case here. You flip past the title page and the index to the first poem, "Pomegranate," and before your eyes can adjust to the typeface, you're in trouble. Big trouble:

As our students grow dependant on Internet being a primary source for their information, it becomes of urgent necessity that we, as teachers and educators, should know how to evaluate web content and decipher credible resources from spam and irrelevant ones. Regrettably enough, some of the teachers who are using technology in their instruction still don't come to grips with the mechanisms used to sift through internet content. There is a crude analogy to this situation . A teacher who does not evaluate the web content he shares with his students is like a person driving a car without having a driver license, he can still drive his car but he does not know the real dangers he is putting himself to in doing so.
Update : This article is available for download in a Slideshare presentation below
Being able to evaluate online content is a skill detrimental to the 21st century education. Our students are digitally focused and they use Internet almost on a daily basis . You give them an assignment or a classroom project, the first thing they do is to check for resources online and if they do not know how to differentiate what is a reliable and credible resource from non credible ones they will simply fall easy prey to content scrapers and misleading information. Therefore, we need to seriously address this issue and try our best to make Internet that illuminating source that our students can comfortably use in their learning development.
Techniques of Web Evaluation
Below is a list of some of the best and most important techniques we can use to teach our students about how to evaluate a web page. Please check the webliography links at the end of this post for further readings.
1- Scan the URL
The URL is the web address of the page you are reading. it has this format :www.name of the website.name of article you are reading.com. This is the first door we need to tap in to get a glimpse of what the article is all about. Read the URL carefully and look for the following :
Does the URL have a domain name and if so is it appropriate for the content ? Students should know that a site that has a domain name ending with .edu is more likely to be relevant for academic and educational content. Other domain names of interest are .com, , .gov, .org. This does not mean that other domain names are spam or would not be irrelevant, we can also find good and credible content in other domains but this should be made clear to students.
2- When you are on a web page, make sure you check for these : " about us", " Philosophy ", " Background", " Bibliography". This will give you an idea about the people behind that content.
3- Look for the name of the author, or the name of the organization or institution, agency or whoever is responsible for the page.
4- Check out if the page is dated and if so , is it current enough ? Undated factual or statistical information is no better than anonymous information. Be cautious when dealing with it.
5- Look for indicators of quality information : are sources documented with footnotes or links ? Do the links work ? Are they reliable ? if the article is reproduced from another source then is it complete, not altered, fake, or forged ?
6- Try to figure out the purpose of the website ? Is it mainly commercial ? is the author trying to generate revenue by recommending things, enticing, or selling products ? Is the website informative and provides data and facts ?
Evaluation Criteria
According to nmsu.edu, There are 5major yardsticks to keep in mind while trying to evaluate a website:
1- Authority :
The authority of a webpage can be established by finding answers to these questions :
- Is there an author ? If so is there a way to contact him/her ?
- Is the page signed ?
- Is the author qualified ? An expert in his domain ? ( you can learn about this from his " about us " page if he has one.
- Is there a link to the information about the author or the sponsor of the website ? If the pages does not include no author name of sponsor, then is there any other way to determine its origin ?
2- Accuracy
To establish accuracy in a web page you need to ask yourself these questions :
- Is the information reliable ?
- Is it error-free ?
- Does it include links to other resources ?
- Is there an editor or someone who verifies and checks information ?
3- Objectivity :
To look for objectivity in a web age you need to ask the following questions :
- Does the information show a minimum of bias ?
- Is the author impartial in his reasoning ?
- Is the page designed to sway opinions ?
- How much advertising on the page ?
4- Currency
To investigate about this feature ask the following :
- Is the page dated ?
- How often is it dated ?
- What is the last time the page updated ?
- How current are the links? Have some expired or moved ?
5- Coverage :
to learn about a web page coverage you need to ask the following questions :
- what topics this website cover ?
- What is it that this page offer to readers ?
- How in-depth is the material ?
- What about the writing style, arguments, data , and facts included ? how are these developed ?
More evaluation tools
I have read several articles about this topic while I was working on this post but I did not find anything better than the neat and clear-cut classification of the web evaluation tools Cornell University Library has provided. Of course some of the things they included have already been mentioned above but there are many more to learn about. Let me summarize what they have written.
Evaluation criteria according to Cornell University Library :
- Author
- Date of publication
- Edition or Revision
- Publisher
- Title of Journal
- Intended Audience
- Objective Reasoning
- Coverage
- Writing Style
- Evaluative reviews
Evaluating Web pages : Questions to ask ? ( always according to Cornell University Library )
- What can the URL tell you /
- Who wrote the page ? is he,she, or the authoring institution a qualified authority ?
- Is it dated ? Current, timely ?
- Is information cited authentic ?
- Does the page have overall integrity and reliability as a source ?
- What the bias ?
- Could the page or site be iconic, like a satire or a spoof ?
- If you have questions or reservations, how can you satisfy them ?
Two Great tools to evaluate websites
I will share with you here two of the web tools I personally use to evaluate a webpage besides what I have already mentioned above:
First off I am a Chrome user and this browser helps me a lot in evaluating internet websites. I have installed some extensions that I can not imagine myself going online without having access to them.:
2- Google Page rank
This is a sophisticated algorithm Google uses to classify websites from 0 to 10 with 10 being the top. Any webpage with a Google Page rank of 3 upwards is a great website and can be ( only can be ) reliable. The first thing I do whenever I land on a page for the first time is to check its Google Page rank. You can install its extension on your browser and will always show the rank number of any web page. Check this page to download the extension for Chrome, Firefox,or Safari
3- Alexa Traffic rank
Alexa traffic rank is another great tool to rank websites. Advertisers use it a lot especially when looking for potential clients. Alexa ranks websites according to their backlinks and pageviews. It starts with 26 million down to 1 with 1 being the top ( Google has 1 in alexa rank ). Any website ranked from 300.000 down can be ( only can be ) a good resource. Again Alexa has an extension for both Chrome and firefox and it can also be used right from their homepage.

ASHLAND, Ore. — While it may be gray and dreary outside, optometrists want to make sure we see January clearly.
January is National Glaucoma Awareness Month. Glaucoma is the second leading cause of vision loss in the U.S. Optometrists are reminding people to make their annual eye appointments and make sure they are screened for glaucoma.
Optometrist Ken Loftus says early signs of glaucoma aren't always detectable right away.
"Most of us hopefully don't wait until we get the toothache to go to the dentist we go and we get regular check ups so that's what we in the eye care profession need to make sure people know just cause you can see pretty well doesn't mean there's nothing going wrong," says Loftus.
Optometrists recommend kids and seniors get their eyes checked once a year and adults get their eyes checked at least once every two years unless there is a vision problem.

Windsor Court Hotel, New Orleans, Louisiana
Editor's Pick
Central Business District
New Orleans , Louisiana
Tel: 888 596 0955 (toll-free)
Tel: 504 523 6000
Concierge.com's insider take:
The much-lauded 324-room Windsor Court Hotel epitomizes New Orleans luxury while playing freely with disparate aesthetics. Completed in 1984, the Windsor Court transports design cues from Windsor Castle and other grand English country manors into a modern architectural space. Prints and paintings of equestrians and wig-wearing 18th-century nobles abound, and original oils by Reynolds and Gainsborough hang in the first- and second-floor lobbies. A traditional afternoon tea is served in the grand lobby area, and the Polo Club Lounge, with its dark wood panels and resident piano player, feels like an old-time gentlemen's club. The majority of the rooms are spacious suites with elegantly appointed sitting areas, wet bar/kitchenette amenities, and commanding views of the river or downtown.—Pableaux Johnson

Older women could protect themselves against osteoporosis in later life by drinking a pint of beer a day, according to new research.
A new study has shown that ale is an ideal source of dietary silicon, which is crucial in the formation of new bone.
Although silicon is contained in some plants and beans, one of the richest and most easily absorbed sources is beer.
In the new study, Professor Jonathan Powell, head of nutrition research at Cambridge University, studied the effects of beer on bone formation and found that ethanol - which is also present in alcohol - helps to prevent bone loss and silicon encourages the growth of new bone.
"Silicon combines with the hormone oestrogen to produce a beneficial effect and as women age, their oestrogen levels fall, and so, as they get older, it is important for women to take in a good daily amount of silicon," the Daily Mail quoted Prof Powell as saying.
"Our research shows that the absorption rate of silicon from beer is the highest of any foodstuff.
A pint of beer contains around 8mg of silicon - around a third of our daily recommended intake.
Pre-menopausal women would benefit from drinking a half-pint a day as a means of absorbing silicon, and post-menopausal women would benefit from a pint of beer a day," he added.

Jim Stump explores the meaning of the Lenten season from the perspective of evolutionary creation.

Jim Stump explores the meaning of the Lenten season from the perspective of evolutionary creation.
When non-believers in France or in Spain read what young-earth creationists are writing about evolution, geology, or astrophysics, they frequently conclude that the Bible is at best an interesting fairy tale.
John Calvin really believed that the sun revolved around the earth, but we shouldn't dismiss the rest of his theology because of this error.
The story of the Genesis Rock reminds us of how biblical and scientific accounts, despite their different purviews and purposes, remain inexorably linked in our understanding of origins.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
At BioLogos, we believe that a serious and faithful reading of Scripture doesn't call for a recent origin to the earth, and we are persuaded that God has shown us through the natural world he created that his creative work began much earlier.
God invites us to understand his power and nature through studying what has been made.
Conflicts occur when people argue one worldview against another. They may be arguing Atheism versus Monotheism, then pull out science as a weapon saying, "science proves I'm right because of this or that..." In my view, science is rather more limited than this. Science has a lot of interesting resonances with the big questions, and can inform them, but I don't believe it can answer them.
We must press beyond the various creation narratives in the Hebrew Bible, including the final chapters of Job, to the picture of God revealed in the New Testament—the Creator who does not rationally explain away the scandal of suffering but who instead enters into it.
There is often a worry that working in or studying science is a threat to faith, but stories of scientists who are Christians in the top ranks of academia show that this is not the case.
How should we interpret the Bible? What is the role of tradition? What is the role of science? Who gets to decide whether traditional interpretations need to change?
"I believe that we must now ask for more than simple avoidance of cognitive dissonance. I believe we should seek for cognitive consonance."
Carl's dramatic lines that opened his Cosmos were repeated in Cosmos II: "The universe is all there is, or was, or ever will be." When I told Haines Stiles that many people took that as a statement of atheism, he responded with surprise. "Really?" he said. "We just put that in because it sounded poetic!"
A deep love for scripture, coupled (ironically) with a lifelong struggle with religious doubt, led Robert Boyle to write several important books relating scientific and religious knowledge. We explore aspects of this fascinating interaction.
Sometimes, out of fear or some sense of being required to defend our position, Church leaders and teachers have hastily set up a boundary marker around some doctrinal theory which they have confused as a core doctrinal issue.

Citrus is believed to have originated in the part of Southeast Asia bordered by Northeastern India, Myanmar (Burma) and the Yunnan province of China. Citrus fruit has been cultivated in an ever-widening area since ancient times; the most well known examples are the oranges, lemons, grapefruit and limes. These plants are large shrubs or small trees, reaching 5–15 m tall, with spiny shoots and alternately arranged evergreen leaves with an entire margin. The flowers are solitary or in small corymbs, each flower 2–4 cm diameter, with five (rarely four) white petals and numerous stamens; they are often very strongly scented. The fruit is a hesperidium, a specialised berry, globose to elongated, 4–30 cm long and 4–20 cm diameter, with a leathery rind surrounding segments or "liths" filled with pulp vesicles. The genus is commercially important as many species are cultivated for their fruit, which is eaten fresh, pressed for juice, or preserved in marmalades. Citrus fruits are notable for their fragrance, partly due to flavonoids and limonoids (which in turn are terpenes) contained in the rind, and most are juice-laden. The juice contains a high quantity of citric acid giving them their characteristic sharp flavour. They are also good sources of vitamin C and flavonoids. The pomelo (Citrus maxima or Citrus grandis) is a citrus fruit native to Southeast Asia. It is usually pale green to yellow when ripe, with sweet white (or, more rarely, pink or red) flesh and very thick pudgy rind. It is the largest citrus fruit, 15–25 cm in diameter, and usually weighing 1–2 kg. Other spellings for pomelo include pummelo, and pommelo, and other names include Chinese grapefruit, jabong, lusho fruit & pompelmous. The Chandler is a Californian variety of pomelo, with a smoother skin . The pomelo tastes like a sweet, mild grapefruit, though the typical pomelo is much larger in size than the grapefruit. Lime is a term referring to a number of different fruits, both species and hybrids, citruses, which are typically round, green to yellow in color, 3–6 cm in diameter, and containing sour and acidic pulp. Limes are a small citrus fruit, Citrus aurantifolia, whose skin and flesh are green in color and which have an oval or round shape with a diameter between one to two inches. In order to prevent scurvy during the 19th century, British sailors were issued a daily allowance of citrus such as lemon, and later switched to lime, which was not as effective at preventing scurvy but led over time to the nickname "limey" for all Britons. It was later discovered that the greater effectiveness of lemons derived from the 4-fold higher quantities of Vitamin C lemon juice contains compared to the West Indian limes used by the British. buy as high resolution stock royalty free images of travel images to download on line or buy as photo art prints.« less

MJ's Former Backup Singer Judith Hill Sends Thoughts to Paris Jackson
Judith Hill may have been eliminated from The Voice, but the former backup singer's career has only just begun.
Last week, Judith debuted her original song "Desperation" off the 20 Feet from Stardom soundtrack on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and proved with a voice like that, she's not going anywhere!
The former Team Adam singer's career first kicked off as a backup singer for the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson, and with the recent news about his daughter Paris Jackson's suicide attempt, Judith feels for the teen.
"It broke my heart," she told On Air with Ryan Seacrest. "I just really hope she's okay. I can't imagine what she's going through. I mean, losing a father and the build up. My heart goes out to her."

Tierce Dry Riesling, a collaboration of three winemakers from three different Finger Lakes wineries, will be served at the Inauguration luncheon after the swearing in of President Barack Obama and Vice-President Joe Biden later this month.
This was announced yesterday by U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer, Chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies.
Sure, it is exciting for any winery to have one of their wines selected to be poured at a special event such as this, but what I especially love about this choice, aside from the delicious wine, is that it is a collaboration of three excellent winemakers. What a beautiful example to be displayed in Washington.
Fox Run Vineyards, Red Newt Cellars and Anthony Road Winery could all be fierce competitors, but instead they choose to work together on joint projects such as this Tierce Riesling.
Their collaboration is a perfect example of what I have seen in the Finger Lakes region during my five visits to the area in 2012 alone, after our first visit to the Finger Lakes in 2011 where one of the winery owners invited my family (kids and all) to Thanksgiving dinner with his family. (So, in case you cannot tell, and in the spirit of full disclosure, I must confess I've met two of the winemakers featured in that photo, and all but one of the Tierce collaborative team. I have found them to be great people, as well as exceptional winemakers.)
What I have seen in the Finger Lakes region of New York is that the winemakers and winery owners truly work together for the benefit of the region. They support each other and stand up for each other and absolutely want to make the best wine they can possibly make. They experiment and take suggestions from each other and are constantly working to improve their wines and grow their businesses.
And they all seem to shy away from the limelight.
When I called Peter Bell of Fox Run to congratulate him, he wanted to be sure I knew that there were many others who were not in the press photo who had a lot to do with the winemaking and blending of Tierce. He mentioned Tricia Renshaw, who works with him at Fox Run, Kelby Russell who was at Fox Run but now who is at Red Newt, Brandon Seager, who was previously at Red Newt, Peter Becraft of Anthony Road and Sara Gummoe of Fox Run who didn't work in this particular Tierce, but has worked on others since. The team has been collaborating on Tierce since 2004, with a Riesling created each year except for one, when they decided to release a red wine instead.
What better wine to pour to show America not only a fantastic wine, but also a collaborative spirit.
Perhaps the Republicans and Democrats and anyone else who wants to argue can take their example. When you combine the best, you only get better.

My name is Shantanu Jakhete, and I am in seventh grade at Murray Middle School in Stuart, Fla. I applied for the Tiger Woods Learning Center because I like science, and forensic science is cool.
After we finished the course, we taught the eighth graders how to fingerprint. First, they learned the background and history of fingerprinting and then we separated into small groups. Each student taught the eighth graders how to fingerprint and then once they got the hang of it, we put our fingerprints on a paper and identified which type of fingerprint we have. It felt different teaching the eighth graders, because usually they are the ones who teach us, but for a change, we were the teachers.
When Tiger Woods walked into the lab, nobody recognized him at first, but somebody said, "Hey, that's Tiger Woods!" and everyone became excited. The people in my group started asking, "We actually get to meet him? Can I shake hands with him?" Tiger Woods walked around, talked to everyone and saw their work. The closer he got to our table, the more excited everyone got.
At last, when he came to our group, he asked us what fingerprint we all have. We showed him our fingerprints and how they matched. Then he asked, "I wonder what fingerprint I have?
"It looks like this one," he said, pointing to one of the types on the identification paper, and everyone agreed on that.
It was nice of him to visit and take his time to see his learning center. It felt cool to meet the same person who goes on the golf course and wins prizes and championships.
I really enjoyed the program, and now every time I see NCIS or CSI, I don't wonder what exactly they're doing, how they're doing it, or why they do some of the stuff they do. It was a good learning experience. I would definitely recommend the program to someone, but it takes a commitment to come every day and keep up with it. Tiger Woods not only taught us forensics but also to work in a group together, to get along and just to have fun.
Most of the activities we took notes on, so we knew the history and background behind it, and then we got directions of how to do it properly. Most of the activities were the same ones you would find on CSI or NCIS. My favorite activities were the wanted posters that we did on the FACES program on the laptops, fingerprinting and the break-in of the TWLC bandit. Overall, Tiger Woods Forensics is a very nice program that is fun and educational.

Thanks for the updates too!

Estamos en Xela or Quetzaltenango
Trip Start
Feb 10, 2006
Trip End
We made it safely to Quetzaltenango, or better known as Xela at about 5pm today. It took a 5 hour bus ride to get here. This morning we got up really early so we could go take the Gandala ride. As it turns out, the ride was really short and probably not worth our time, but it's all good. We had to rush to the bus station afterwards. Gustavo is a crazy driver! We literally almost got in 3 recks on the way, the driving is SUPER aggresive here! Luckily we made it safe to the bus station. Once on the bus, Jenna and I pretty much slept the whole way. After arriveing in Xela we took a taxi to our school, and about another 45 minutes later our family came to pick us up. We are staying literally around the corner from the school , which will be very convenient. We both have our own rooms with big beds. The famly speaks no english, which may be hard at first but also very good for our studies. We start school at 8am monday morning, and we are being taught one on one with a teacher, who will also speak no english. There is no way that we won't be speaking good spanish by the time we leave here!

St. Mary's National School in Croom, Co. Limerick has received a donation of €12,000 from AIB Croom. This funding, which was awarded under the AIB Better Ireland Programme, will go towards the cost of providing music and art therapy as part of a new programme for a number of children attending the school. The project will be run by the Blue Box Creative Learning Centre, which has previously received funding from the AIB Better Ireland Programme.
St. Mary's National School currently has 190 pupils. With the help of this funding, the school will be able to provide music and art therapists for one day a week through the Limerick based Blue Box Creative Learning Centre. Some of the funding will also be used to renovate a suitable room and provide equipment needed, which will greatly benefit all those involved in the programme.
Sr. Helen O'Connor, Home School Community Liaison, said: "We are delighted that AIB Croom have made this donation to us, under the AIB Better Ireland Programme, as it will allow us to empower the children involved in the programme and encourage them to grow in confidence and self esteem, which will enable them to reach their full potential."
Mary Roche, AIB Better Ireland Programme Co-ordinator, AIB High Street, Croom, commented: "Since the AIB Better Ireland Programme began in 2001 almost €260,000 has been donated to nearly 40 children's projects in Limerick. We at AIB Croom are delighted that this project is receiving this funding as it will allow the school to improve their facilities and better meet the needs of the children who attend the programme."
