You know, there are a lot of reasons why I'm a Disney fan. A lot. Even beyond my 3-year-old child's mesmerized love affair with everything Disney — which, any parent will tell you, is reason alone to back the Mouse Ears. And one often-overlooked reason is that Disney really knows how to do a quality collaboration. (Have you seen their Stride Rite shoes? Or their swaddle blankets? Or their SPIRITHOODS, for crying out loud?)
And their latest collaboration with Sephora, called Reigning Beauties, is a series of limited-edition collections inspired by our favorite Disney princesses. First up is Cinderella — and it's not just the packaging that's beautiful (although, yes, the packaging is beautiful):
Shop the entire DISNEY CINDERELLA COLLECTION.
The bad news: This collection won't last long. (Enter the typical metaphor of "the clock striking midnight.") But the good news: Sephora and Disney will introduce a new princess collection soon. But will it be as elegant as the Cinderella collection? We shall see.

If it wasn't already exciting enough to have eternal "Golden Girl" Betty White host an episode of Saturday Night Live, now comes news that Jay-Z will be performing on the same show.
On May 8th, the two unlikely stars will appear together on SNL, along with former cast members Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Molly Shannon.
So, can we expect Betty to grab the mic and join Hova for a collabo? Probably not, but White at least seems psyched about the rap mogul's appearance. She recently told Zap2It, "Well, that'll be interesting! It'll be great fun."

15 minutes to restart phone!
My 9860 has never been fast to restart after a battery pull or app deletion, but lately it has been excruciatingly (?) slow.
10 to 15 minutes from the first sign of BlackBerry on screen to a useable state.
i have very few apps installed, and i dont use any leaked ROM's, custom themes etc. pretty stock phone, average user.
short of doing a wipe to factory state, any ideas? Thanks. -
same boat.. on a 9900 i always exhaust every single option before im forced to reset... i hate it .. haha but one thing i have found, is running my phone in safe mode has been pretty bug free and is till get to use my 3rd party apps, they just dont run automatically... restart your phone and hold down the back button while it boots up, see if in safe mode you can find the problem

Songs produced by the females of the Drosophila virilis group of species.
Department of Genetics, University of Oulu, Finland.
Behavior Genetics (Impact Factor: 2.84). 06/1994; 24(3):263-72. Source: PubMed
Article: Behavioral Sequence Leading to Sexual Isolation Between Drosophila ananassae and D. pallidosa
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Drosophila ananassae and D. pallidosa are closely related, sympatric species that lack postmating isolation. Sexual isolation has been considered important in maintaining them as independent species. To clarify the behavioral processes leading to sexual isolation, we analyzed behavioral sequences and examined the effect of courtship song on mating success and on behaviors of both sexes by surgically removing male wings (song generators), female aristae (song receivers), or female wings (means of fluttering). We found that heterospecific courtship songs evoked female wing fluttering, whereas conspecific courtship song did not. Furthermore, female wing fluttering made courting males discontinue courtship. These findings suggest that strong sexual isolation is achieved through the following behavioral sequence: heterospecific song→female wing fluttering→courtship discontinuation.Journal of Insect Behavior 06/2008; 21(4):222-239. · 1.11 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Four species of the Drosophila virilis group, D. montana, D. littoralis, D. lummei, and D. ezoana, occur sympatrically in several locations in northern Europe. Courtship interactions between the flies of the three first-mentioned species were observed at malt baits in Kemi, northern Finland, to find out how the flies of different species recognize conspecific individuals and how interspecific courtships differ from intraspecific ones in the wild. Intraspecific courtships (including females of different reproductive stages) and interspecific courtships were also videotaped and analyzed in laboratory. In the wild the males courted both conspecific and allospecific females, even though the species varied in how much the males were attracted to females of different species. Interspecific courtships usually broke off when the male touched the female or when the male and/or the female vibrated his/her wings, producing acoustic cues. In the laboratory males courted conspecific females irrespective of the reproductive stage of the female, even though the courtships directed toward immature and fertilized females usually included only orienting and touching (no licking and singing). D. littoralis, and very rarely D. montana and D. lummei, males courted also allospecific females. In the few interspecific courtships between these three species, where the male proceeded to singing, females responded to male singing by vibrating their wings. This ended the courtship. It is suggested that both the chemical cues affecting female attractivity and the acoustic signals of males and females, which are produced by wing vibration, function in maintaining sexual isolation between these three species.Journal of Insect Behavior 04/1998; 11(3):399-417. · 1.11 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: D. birchii and D. serrata, two endemic Australian Drosophila species, have a copulatory courtship. The males of these species begin to court the female after mounting her and often go on with the courtship after the copulation is over. In the present paper we have described behavioral interactions between the male and the female and analyzed acoustic signals produced by the flies during courtship. Species differences were more pronounced in female than in male behavior. Variation within the species was obvious in the relative proportions of time the flies spent in different behaviors. Even though courtship took place nearly solely during copulation, some remains of precopulatory courtship were observed in both species. It is suggested that copulatory courtship exhibited by D. birchii and D. serrata flies is a derived rather than a primitive character.Journal of Insect Behavior 12/1999; 13(1):71-86. · 1.11 Impact Factor

Founded in the 15th century, Malacca's a small city and the main city centre, Malacca Town sees the most tourist action. This area of town plays host to the most sightseeing attractions and also houses the only banks, fast food joints, restaurants and bars. Meanwhile, Jonker Street is Malacca's most popular avenue – it used to play host to a strip of antique stores and these days its best known for the famous Jonker Walk Night Market that takes place every Friday and Saturday night.

Meanwhile Jonker Street plays host to a variety of cut-price rumah tumpangan (guesthouses) and beautifully restored, Peranakan-inspired boutique ventures.

of really bright shades, when it seems they ALL look great on you! Whitney Allison: fireball looked really pretty on you!

How about falafel.
Here is a recipe for that:Ingredients
1 cup dried chickpeas or 16 oz. can of chickpeas or garbanzo beans.
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons of fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon coriander
1 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons flour
Oil for frying
Place dried chickpeas in a bowl, covering with cold water. Allow to soak overnight. Omit this step if using canned beans.
Drain chickpeas, and place in pan with fresh water, and bring to a boil.
Allow to boil for 5 minutes, then let simmer on low for about an hour.
Drain and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
Combine chickpeas, garlic, onion, coriander, cumin, salt and pepper (to taste) in medium bowl. Add flour.
Mash chickpeas, ensuring to mix ingredients together. You can also combine ingredients in a food processor. You want the result to be a thick paste.
Form the mixture into small balls, about the size of a ping pong ball. Slightly flatten.
Fry in 2 inches of oil at 350 degrees until golden brown (5-7 minutes).
Serve hot.
Falafel can be served as an appetizer with hummus and tahini, or as a main course. Stuff pita bread with falafel, lettuce, tomatoes, tahini, salt and pepper. As an alternative, falafel can be formed into patties and served like a burger."Ye can lead a man up to the university, but ye can't make him think."

Good choice, Fr33-Mason. Plus the other guests can have them as a side if they like.
Stuffed portobella caps make a nice vegetarian main dish too. I like using other wild mushrooms as the base for the filling, but there are innumerable choices.
Some other possibilities:
Red Bean Loaf
1 lb dried red beans
1 cup cooked bulgar or brown rice
1 cup grated carrots
1 cup finely chopped celery
1 large onion, chopped
4 eggs, slightly beaten
Salt and white pepper to taste
Cook beans until very tender. Drain and mash them---eon't worry about lumps.
In a large bowl combine the mashed beans with remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly. ut mixture in two lightly oiled 9 x 5 loaf pans.
Bake in a preheated 350F oven for 60-70 minutes.
Each loaf serves 4-6 people, so maybe cutting the recipe in half would make sense.
Black Eyed Pea Cakes
4 cups black eyed peas or other cowpeas
1 red onion, sliced
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1 Jalapeno, diced
1 cup grated parmesan
2 large eggs
2 tbls flour
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black peper
1/4 cup parsley
2 1/2 cups bread crumbs
1/3 cup cooking oil
Cook peas. Drain. Divide in half.
Mix half the peas with the onion, red pepper, Jalapeno, parmesan, flour, garlic, oregano, slat and pepper. Run through food processor in batches. Blend in 1 cup bread crumbs and eggs. Fold in reserved whole peas.
Scoop out 1/2 cup of the mixture. Form into cakes about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. Coat with remaining breadcrumbs. Chill finished cakes.

The part I obviously left out is that we don't eat beans of any kind during Passover and this has been the problem with finding recipes. So I am looking for vegetarian main courses with no beans or dairy which is what I should have written in the first place. Thanks for the suggestions though. I think they look good.post #6 of 203/6/10 at 8:07pm- FR33_MASON

Well then....
...How about Baba Ganoush.
Baba ganoush - standard prep1 large eggplant, unpeeled, about 1 pound
Using a fork, poke the eggplant at least a dozen times. Place on a baking sheet and broil on all sides about 4 to 5 inches from the source of heat. Turn often until the eggplant is browned nicely all over. Total time will be about 45 minutes. Remove the eggplant from the broiler and allow to cool for a few minutes.
1 large clove garlic, peeled and crushed
2 tablespoons tahini (sesame paste)
juice of 1/2 lemon or to taste
salt to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
pita bread cut into wedges
chopped parsley
Cut the eggplant in half lengthwise, and scoop out the soft insides, discarding the browned peel. In a bowl mash the eggplant and the remaining ingredients, except the garnishes, with a fork. Do not use a food processor or blender as you do not want too smooth a paste. Serve on a plate with the olive oil and parsley sprinkled over the top. Guests dip the bread wedges into the Baba Ghanoush and go directly to heaven without passing go!
Serves 4-6 as an appetizer.
Baba Ganoush - cooking variations
Char Grill Method
2 pounds eggplant (about 2 large globe eggplants, 5 medium Italian eggplants, or 12 medium Japanese eggplants), each eggplant poked uniformly over entire surface with fork to prevent it from bursting
Ignite about 6 quarts (1 large chimney, or 2 1/2 pounds) hardwood charcoal and burn until completely covered with thin coating of light gray ash, 20 to 30 minutes. Spread coals evenly over grill bottom, then spread additional 6 quarts unlit charcoal over lit coals. Position grill rack and heat until very hot, about 20 minutes.
1 tablespoon juice
1 small clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tahini paste
salt and ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for serving
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Grill eggplants until skins darken and wrinkle on all sides and eggplants are uniformly soft when pressed with tongs, about 25 minutes for large globe eggplants, 20 minutes for Italian eggplants, and 15 minutes for Japanese eggplants, turning every 5 minutes and reversing direction of eggplants on grill with each turn. Transfer eggplants to rimmed baking sheet and cool 5 minutes.
Set small colander over bowl or in sink. Trim top and bottom off each eggplant. Slit eggplants lengthwise and use spoon to scoop hot pulp from skins and place pulp in colander (you should have about 2 cups packed pulp); discard skins. Let pulp drain 3 minutes.
Transfer pulp to workbowl of food processor fitted with steel blade. Add lemon juice, garlic, tahini, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; process until mixture has coarse, choppy texture, about eight 1-second pulses. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper; transfer to serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap flush with surface of dip, and refrigerate 45 to 60 minutes. To serve, use spoon to make trough in center of dip and spoon olive oil into it; sprinkle with parsley and serve.
Baba Ghanoush - Gas-Grill Method
Turn all burners on gas grill to high, close lid, and heat grill until hot, 10 to 15 minutes. Follow recipe for Baba Ghanoush, Charcoal-Grill Method, from step 2.
Baba Ghanoush - Oven Method
Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 500 degrees. Line rimmed baking sheet with foil, set eggplants on baking sheet, and roast, turning every 15 minutes, until eggplants are uniformly soft when pressed with tongs, about 60 minutes for large globe eggplants, 50 minutes for Italian eggplants, and 40 minutes for Japanese eggplants. Cool eggplants on baking sheet 5 minutes, then follow recipe for Baba Ghanoush, Charcoal-Grill Method, from step 3.
Baba Ghanoush with Sautéed Onion
Sautéed onion gives the baba ghanoush a sweet, rich flavor.
Heat 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil in small skillet over low heat until shimmering; add 1 small onion, chopped fine, and cook, stirring occasionally, until edges are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Follow recipe for Baba Ghanoush, Charcoal-Grill, Gas-Grill, or Oven Method, stirring onion into dip after processing.
Makes about 2 cups
I know it's not a main, However, You could make it as a wrap, Roasted red bell pepper wraps might be a good choice.
Or you could serve it with baby potatoes especialy with sauteed onions.

No beans means it will be difficult, at best, to make any sort of vegetarian loaf. They're almost all based on beans.
Of course there's tofu. And TVP. But I assume you like these people, so wouldn't suggest it.
I don't think things like baba gannouj, and hummus (which is out anyway because of the chickpeas), and similar dishes work as main courses, any more than I think of, say, polenta that way.
Polenta can be used as the base of a main dish, though. Pour it into a baking dish, cool it, cut it in shapes, and pan-fry it. Then construct the rest of the dish on top of it. Off the top of my head, I could see a circle of fried polenta topped with caponata and garnished with deep-fried herbs as a possibility.
I had suggested stuffed mushrooms above, and still think that's a good choice. But you could go with other stuffed veggies as well: eggplant, and zucchini, and green peppers, and so on. The trick is to make them as festive as you can, so the vegetarian's don't feel out of place at the table. For instance, most people make stuffed peppers by cutting off the crown. An alternative is to cut them in half, pole-to-pole (cutting through the stem, so part is attached to each half as a handle). Then use three different, but complimentary, fillings to create stripes in the pepper bowl. You could, for instance, have a couscous/veggie filling on one side, a rice/veggie on the other, with the two separted by roasted red peppers for contrast, all sitting in a yellow bell pepper.
Another possibility are what I call pillows, for lack of a better name. These are oversized ravioli, with whatever filling you prefer. I make these 4-5 inches across to give you the idea of what I mean. One version that's been popular has a pumpkin filling and is lightly sauteed in a sage/brown butter sauce. A sprinkle of matzoh meal for crunch, if you want, and you'd be good to go. Of course, there's no reason why regular vegetarian raviolis wouldn't work, either.
A variation of arancini could work. Leave the cheese out. But for textural variety I think there should be something in the middle. Maybe carrot cubes, cooked until just tender? Or a hard-cooked quail egg? Or just a pitted olive.
BTW, if you're interested I have an incredible recipe for a vegetarian chopped liver---even dyed-in-the-fang carnivores have trouble telling them apart. Be glad to post the recipe for you.They have taken the oath of the brother in blood, in leavened bread and salt. Rudyard KiplingThey have taken the oath of the brother in blood, in leavened bread and salt. Rudyard Kiplingpost #8 of 203/7/10 at 1:27pmThere are nut loaves that you can try that do not use beans - try spinach nut loaf or zucchini nut loaf. I recently made these and although I used cheese it's not essential. Kugels are also a good option - try butternut squash, sweep potato, cauliflower etc. Stuffed vegetables are also great - I love stuffed mushrooms, but zucchini and peppers also work well.
I would be happy to post recipes for any of these ideas if you want.
Good luck - cooking for Passover is a challenge without added restrictions!post #9 of 203/7/10 at 2:06pm- FR33_MASON

Fr33-Mason, the dough used to make knishes has leavening, which would make them a no-no for Passover. But for any other time of year---umm, umm, good!
Although there are exceptions. I was looking at one recipe, which the author's identify as being a "real taste of New York," in which the filling is wrapped in phyllo pastry.
Say what? Which New York are they tasting, I wonder?They have taken the oath of the brother in blood, in leavened bread and salt. Rudyard KiplingThey have taken the oath of the brother in blood, in leavened bread and salt. Rudyard Kiplingpost #12 of 203/7/10 at 7:57pm- FR33_MASON

It is extremely difficult to cook any traditional seder dishes without eggs..Noodle Kugel, Latkas,Potato Puddding, Matzoh Balls,Giffilte Fish , most of your loaf type dishes all are bound with egg. You cant even use any form of food starches to substitute except potato starch and or matzoh meal to bind. Carrot Simmis is ok, as is green beans with mushroom and onion.Nothing with flour as you know.Sweet potato and orange is ok as. is roasted baby beets. It is difficult Good Luck.
SORRY" I read wrong and thought you said no eggs , you can use all of the ones I mentionedCHEFEDCHEFEDpost #16 of 203/8/10 at 3:55pm- chefguy

post #19 of 203/9/10 at 11:12amNo, you can't mix cheese and meat. You can omit the cheese though making the spinach nut loaf parve.post #20 of 203/9/10 at 11:15amYou could definitely add mushrooms and/or make it with a mushroom sauce - I think mushrooms and spinach go really well together.
If you look at my website there are a few other parve vegetarian recipes you could try.
Good luck- Passover vegetarian recipes

CIti Consumer & Retail Group Overview

This movie, saddle sores and all, is a lot of fun.
A simple entertainment in a summer of overcomplicated disappointments. Also much harder-edged than you may have expected.
The key to its success lies in the determination by everyone involved to play the damn thing straight. Even the slightest goofiness, the tiniest touch of camp, and the whole thing would blow sky high. But it doesn't.
Jul 24, 2011While Cowboys & Aliens offers little in the way of sociological insight (except perhaps giving the white man a taste of his own resource-stealing medicine), it's still a ripping good ride.
This midsummer crowd-pleaser from the ateliers of Steven Spielberg and Ron Howard is still a great deal more rip-roaring fun than, say, the campy movie version of "The Wild Wild West."
The movie is plainly entertaining, with a terrific cast and a fast-moving story helping you overlook the dialogue's frequent failure to crackle.
Take a cowboy movie, add space aliens. That's a gimmick that could easily have exhausted itself after 20 minutes, but director Favreau, a team of screenwriters and some well-cast actors keep it alive, and the result is a crowd-pleasing summer movie with more wit than most.
Director Jon Favreau keeps the tone light but, aside from the occasional low-key gag or one-liner, the humor is never allowed to upstage the more serious elements.
The component genre parts coexist, excitingly, without veering into camp or facetious desperation. Alien-invasion aficionados should be pleased. Western nostalgists may be pleasantly surprised. Fans of cowboys-versus-aliens movies, well, it's been a long wait and here's your movie.
Cowboys & Aliens has without any doubt the most cockamamie plot I've witnessed in many a moon.
A hell-for-leather action film with a healthy serving of scares. It really is "Aliens" on the open plains, "Independence Day" for the nation's centennial, and what the movie lacks in originality and stick-to-your-ribs Western authenticity, it makes up for in pell-mell multiplex entertainment.
Exactly what it sounds like: a cowboy movie and an alien movie thrown together, a genre mash-up that's more fun than good, but pretty good nonetheless.
A film that is neither great nor horrible. Favreau does enough things right in Cowboys & Aliens to churn out a mostly enjoyable bit of mindless summertime action, just not enough to come close to rivaling his 2008 crowd-pleaser "Iron Man."
A loving throwback to the classic westerns and sci-fi adventures of yore, this celebration of two of cinema's most revered genres doesn't stint in lavishing their most cherished conventions with even-handed affection and respect.
Neither fish nor fowl (nor extraterrestrial), and that's a problem. Craig, handsomely craggy, plays it straight, and like Eastwood's Man With No Name, he doesn't have much to say.
That it lacks the snap, crackle and kapow of the summer's better comic book blockbusters isn't surprising. With all this effort riding on a big, expensive and rushed studio summer picture, the real miracle is that any of them come to life.
Like the Inuit and their many words for "snow," Jake has a thousand squinty faces and they all mean "Bugger off."
Director Jon Favreau's experiment in genre crossbreeding - a Western-sci-fi mashup pumped full of inspirational all-in-this-together spirit - is a cute, crowd-pleasing idea, though more decadent than a revitalization of either genre.
Cowboys & Aliens has fun moments, but it's a plodding entertainment because it mostly tastes like leftovers.
That is what kids will come away with, together with a dose of wishful thinking: the vague belief that, with good will and a foe from far away, all those feuding parties of the Wild West - the cowboys, the Indians, and the no-good rogues - could have settled their differences and got along just fine. Go tell it to Gary Cooper.
Instead of merging the Western and the sci-fi genre to form some new, transcendent class of popcorn fare, Cowboys & Aliens just regurgitates the conventions of both genres. Double the high concept, quadruple the clichés.
Gradually, though, the movie sinks into ordinariness, serving up too many Spielbergian reaction shots of each cast member gawking or gulping at an alien encounter, and too many moral lessons that must be learned or taught.
Jul 28, 2011Playing a variation on John Wayne's character from "Red River," Harrison Ford gives an understandably bewildered performance, often appearing uncertain if he should take his lines seriously.
It looks slick, pricey and starry – Indiana Jones teams up with James Bond for a gunfight with space demons. But even Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig can't save a movie that's all concept, no content.
For better or worse (and I'd argue the latter), the aliens are as monolithically evil, unformed, and un-individuated as characters as Native Americans once were in the earliest of Westerns.
The movie never makes much of a case for its own existence; it's a mediocre western clumsily welded to a mediocre alien shoot-'em-up, and if you allow yourself to think about its treatment of history for as long as one second, you'll feel insulted.
It would have been nice if Cowboys & Aliens had come come up with the right equation to balance originality and homage. But in the end, it all turned into trigonometry.
You want cowboys and aliens in the same movie? This one's for you. If you want anything beyond what the title promises, look elsewhere. And that means even anything resembling a clever mash-up of established genres.
Dialogue is terse and predictable, and the sci-fi thriller portion is even less compelling than the Western saga.
Cowboys & Aliens is one of the silliest movies ever made, but so many otherwise serious people have attached their names to it that, as Arthur Miller wrote in Death of a Salesman, attention must be paid.
Based on a graphic novel, Cowboys & Aliens never quite transcends the flat dimensions of its source material.
An agreeable time-killer, but I'll bet a couple of clever kids could make a livelier movie with a Woody puppet and a Predator doll.
Favreau wavers uncertainly between goofy pastiche and seriousness in a movie that wastes its title and misses the opportunity to play with, you know, ideas about the western and science-fiction horror.
The sole treasure of Cowboys & Aliens is that director Jon Favreau ("Iron Man") has fashioned an actual rawhide ride from a graphic novel (that took six writers to wrangle to the screen).
Favreau's direction is so boulder-heavy-the action sequences, especially the climactic assault on the alien mothership, are an eye-and-ear-shattering mess-that the small moments of poetry...are lost amid too much digital sound and fury.
Jul 24, 2011It's easy to like the cast - thanks as much to their previous work as anything on screen here - but with such a convoluted, illogical and dull story, no one fares particularly well.
Over on the aliens side, it's hard to make out faces, but there's no doubt about their place of origin: These slimy, growling, bug-eyed and distinctly non-scary things are straight from central casting.
A leaden mash-up of western and science-fiction elements that ends up noisy, grotesque and unappealing.
Cowboys versus aliens is a concept that may make you smile in anticipation, but wipe that smile off your face before buying your ticket.
Every summer movie season usually has at least one spectacular, disastrous flame-out, and although the dog days of August still loom, I doubt there will come a big-budget blockbuster worse than Cowboys and Aliens.
Brandishing a literal-minded title as laughable as the rest of its action, Cowboys & Aliens mashes up genres with a staunch dedication to getting everything wrong, making sure that each scene is more inane than the one that preceded it.

PASADENA – Oregon linebacker Kick Alonso was named defensive player of the game in the Rose Bowl on Monday, a bright on-the-field moment in a career clouded by off-the-field trouble.
Alonso, a redshirt junior from Los Gatos, missed Oregon's season opener and all of 2010 because of separate suspensions.
Alonso was arrested in May 2011 on charges of burglary, criminal trespass and criminal mischief, according to reports. Coach Chip Kelly reinstated Alonso after Oregon's season-opening loss to LSU.
Kelly suspended Alonso for the previous season after he was arrested and cited for DUI in February 2010.
Alonso appeared in 11 games this season, recording 41 tackles, a sack and an interception. His second interception came in the third quarter Monday and led to the go-ahead score in Oregon's 45-38 victory over Wisconsin. He finished with tackles, including 2.5 for losses.
"It means a lot," Alonso said. "At one point it was a dark moment, but we got by that. I don't even think about that anymore. I just go to work, and stuff like this will happen if you work hard."
Kelly said he was unusually emotional after the game because of "how far Kiko has come."
Alonso's diving interception at the Wisconsin 39-yard line was only the fourth thrown by Wisconsin quarterback Russell Wilson this season. The Badgers' Aaron Henry had picked off the Ducks' Darron Thomas on the previous possession.
Two of the nation's premier running backs might have played their final college games Monday.
Wisconsin's Montee Ball, who tied Barry Sanders' single-season NCAA record by scoring his 39th touchdown in the second quarter, said he would decide "within the next couple of days" whether to enter the NFL draft.
"I have a big decision to make," said the junior, who rushed for a game-high 164 yards. "I'll make sure to let you guys know and let my teammates know."
Oregon junior LaMichael James, who rushed for a team-high 159 yards, told ESPN.com: "I really don't know (about the draft). I've never been so happy in my life. I can't put money in front of my happiness."
The Oregonian reported last month that James would enter the draft, a story James subsequently refuted.
Oregon guard Carson York left the field on a cart after injuring his right leg in the third quarter. ... Oregon and Wisconsin combined for 56 points in the first half, the most in any half in a Rose Bowl game. ... The 83 total points topped the Rose Bowl record of 80 set by Washington and Iowa in 1991. ... The teams' 1,129 yards fell one shy of the Rose Bowl record set by USC and Texas in 2006.

I may be a spriting newb, but I'd like to find out what people think of my sprites.
I've mostly done recolors of Trainer sprites, but I've more recently gotten into splicing and other things.
But now that I have Paint.NET, I'll no longer be having the problem that occurred with Bellpharosmander. See, I was intending the skirt to be its original colors, but the colors were indexed or something, and GIMP kept changing it.
I'm considering opening a sprite shop, but I'm afraid I might not be motivated enough to actually do people's requests. Feel free to suggest something, though, because I could really use the practice.

Kings' Stanley Cup Dominance Stalls Ratings Growth
Pulling just 2.9 million viewers to NBC Sports Network on Monday night, the shutout averaged a fraction of NBC's audience during Game 1 and Game 2.
With no overtime and a decisive early lead for the Los Angeles Kings, Monday's 3-0 victory over the New York Rangers predictably saw the most modest ratings yet for the 2014 Stanley Cup Finals.
The first game of the championship series to air on cable net NBC Sports Network, Game 3 averaged 2.9 million viewers on Monday night. That's down from the first two matchups in Los Angeles, which pulled in a respective 4.8 million and 6.4 million viewers on NBC -- the latter being an all-time Game 2 record.
It's the smallest haul for a Stanley Cup Final game since Game 4 in 2012. NBCSN, available in roughly 85 million homes, typically brings in fewer viewers than its broadcast sibling.
PHOTOS: Hollywood's Biggest Hockey Fans
One place where interest has not flagged is Los Angeles. The nation's No. 2 market seems considerably more interested in hockey than it was the last time its hometown team made it to the Stanley Cup Final in 2012. After pulling a 7.1 rating with households during the first game, L.A.-area ratings jumped to an 8.9 in Game 2. Aside from Game 6 in the 2012 final, in which the Kings secured the championship, that's the highest NHL rating the market has ever produced. (Game 3's East Coast venue, and the considerable early lead for the Kings, saw local ratings drop to a 6.4.)
Still, interest is greater in New York, where the Rangers now face the daunting task of winning four straight games to take home the Stanley Cup. Monday's game averaged an 8.0 rating with households in the city.
Wednesday finds the Kings facing the Rangers again at Madison Square Garden. And with the outcome potentially securing a second Stanley Cup in three years (and ever) for Los Angeles, ratings will no doubt tick back up.
NBC Sports is likely hoping for a little more steam in the series. The 2013 final, which went to Game 6, brought in 8.2 million viewers with the hockey-loving towns Chicago and Boston vying for the title. And with no scheduling conflict between the NHL and the ongoing NBA Finals, no other sports in the upcoming week threaten to cannibalize the hockey audience.

great sentimental lake home
December 7, 2014
this home brings back old time memories of lake cottages .it feels like a cottage from the movies that could also be a home. pretty, comfortable. homey. lovingly decorated. the only problem we had was it was very cold at that time of year as only one space heater in the central living room... though the bathroom was heated so very comfy. it needs a lock on the front lakeside door unless it was just that we couldn't find it? especially for women staying alone, as we all were. the owners live next door and are very helpful and nice.

FDA Approves Aptiom to Treat Seizures in Adults »
"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved Aptiom (eslicarbazepine acetate) as an add-on medication to treat seizures associated with epilepsy.
Epilepsy is a brain disorder caused by abnormal or excessive activity in the brain"...
Read the FDA Approves Aptiom to Treat Seizures in Adults article »
Celontin (methsuximide) is indicated for the control of absence (petit mal) seizures that are refractory to other drugs.
Optimum dosage of Celontin (methsuximide) must be determined by trial. A suggested dosage schedule is 300 mg per day for the first week. If required, dosage may be increased thereafter at weekly intervals by 300 mg per day for the three weeks following to a daily dosage of 1.2 g. Because therapeutic effect and tolerance vary among patients, therapy with Celontin (methsuximide) must be individualized according to the response of each patient. Optimal dosage is that amount of Celontin (methsuximide) which is barely sufficient to control seizures so that side effects may be kept to a minimum. The smaller capsule (150 mg) facilitates administration to small children.
Celontin (methsuximide) may be administered in combination with other anticonvulsants when other forms of epilepsy coexist with absence (petit mal).
N 0071-0525-24 (P-D 525) – Celontin Capsules, #1 capsule each containing 300 mg methsuximide; bottles of 100.
N 0071-0537-24 (P-D 537) – Celontin (methsuximide) Capsules, Half-Strength, #3 capsule each containing 150 mg methsuximide; bottles of 100.
Store at 25°C (77°F); excursions permitted to 15–30°C (59–86°F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature].
Protect from light and moisture. Protect from excessive heat 40°C (104°F).

Hello there.
I'm a huge goofball. You should be, too. I say wildly inappropriate things after one glass of wine. You should not. I'd prefer it if you drive -- every time.

Jason Eaton and Julien Bonnaire fight as La Rochelle claims famous win
Out of character for Bonnaire, definitely. Then again I always thought Bryan Habana was a tough and honest competitor. And Heinrich Brussow. And even Huget, come to think of it.
Nothing to do with French clichés - you know me better than that. :)
Although, I admit the thought probably wouldn't have occurred to me a couple of weeks ago...
My initial reaction was wow what a punch, but on second viewing and especially in slow motion, he looked like he rolled with the punch - actually absorbed it quite well, then as a secondary thought went down to the ground. But yeah, maybe he was just taking cover, then got wrestled to the ground by Eaton.

Of course, there is the possibility that Eaton started it all by "giving Bonnaire a Hopoate"* in the middle of that maul.........

I'm not saying I could have taken that punch, but I do think Bonnaire went down more easily than a Brummie girl in a community centre car park.

Jason Eaton and Julien Bonnaire fight as La Rochelle claims famous win
@DanKnapp, no mate, not just one of those things, he's clearly got his fingers all over the blokes eyes - or as the commentator quite decisively notes around 1:08 "ah oui, il a la main dans les yeux".

Jason Eaton and Julien Bonnaire fight as La Rochelle claims famous win
Pretty clear fingers in contact with the eye area.
A thoroughly deserved slap and I hope Bonnaire gets a lengthy ban.
The second half of Bonnaire's comment "I'll have to see the video" is "before I decide how much bullshit I reckon I can get away with at the disciplinary hearing".
To cap it all off, it rather looked like Bonnaire "did a Huget" too! I mean the punch would have smarted for sure, but it wasn't a "knock-you-to-the-floor" punch. Definitely milked it.
The only mitigation I can think of is it did look like there might have been some gooly-grabbing going on to, but I'm not entirely sure who was doing the grabbing!

Slade and Wade score as England Saxons defeat Irish Wolfhounds in Cork
Well the 15% higher gate receipts would definitely help a club, but England sell out Twickenham without breaking sweat so that's a moot point at international level.
I completely agree with you in principle.
What I would say though, is someone like Burgess can demonstrate a few things that many of the other hard-working young centres perhaps can't. Chiefly, ability to handle pressure at the highest level; ability to withstand the higher physical intensity required.
Cross-code switches can and have worked well in the past. Yeah, for every SBW there's a Vainikolo, but I would make one crucial distinction here: age.
Israel Folau has migrated seamlessly through Aussie Rules, league and union - surely one of the best fullbacks in the world. (Should Folau have had to wait his turn on the "slow-track" because it's unfair on the other existing union players vying for the 15 shirt?).
Andy Farrell moved to Union with a knackered back. One of my favourite things about Andy Farrell is that (at least this is what I read) he gave back the majority of his salary for his season at Saracens (co-funded by RFU), after spending seven months not able to play.
Lesley Vainikolo came to union five years too old, a stone or two too heavy and with two rodgered knees.
Feels like Sonny Bill's been around forever, yet he's still only 29.
Big Sam still has time on his side, but at 26 I don't think he has time to get in via the slow track.
Jason Robinson made his rugby union debut (at the same age 26) in November 2000 and for England only three months later in February 2001 - now that is "fast-tracking". Would we have this awesome moment otherwise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNdSX3j6TcE

DrG:Yours truly was put out on the wing to cover because "you're younger and quicker than us lot"
That was very kind / tactful of them! ;)

Six Of The Best Tries from the 2014 Six Nations Championship
An absolute legend. I think I'd be more over-awed meeting him than Richie McCaw.
Hopefully he'll do some six nations commentary...

Six Of The Best Tries from the 2014 Six Nations Championship
Personally I think the Scottish wing's at fault. My rule of thumb is smash the bastard and worry about an overlap later. If the git gets the ball away, well at least you've smashed him.
I find nothing more frustrating when I play than when I think I'm being clever and anticipating a pass and trying to cover both players, then failing to stop either, when a straightforward rib-tickler on the ball-carrier would probably have done the job.

We loved our 2 night stay at the Westerton with Mike and Lesley. I note from their current webpage that they are currently totally booked for the remainder of 2014. I do hope all is well with them as they were absolutely delightful hosts. We stayed in the Gold Room. I did have a peek into the other 2 rooms... More

FYI: Just got it with an OU-D out here on the west coast. Restaurant Depot.
Where? My friend looked today and it was still kd. Not LA.
I noticed that their string cheeses, even the flavored ones, also with OU D
Noticed the "egg size" fresh mozzarella with an OU at Costco (Brooklyn)
Also seen at the Hackensack, NJ Costco.
Did you try it?
I likes the idea of the jalapeno string cheese - but honestly - found it slightly rubbery tasting
It didn't taste rubbery. The texture was rubbery.
Great, great news.
