Rise to the occasion with men's fashion expert David Yarbrough

'Casual rules' gets buzz for MNF at Reliant
An update from fashion expert David Yarbrough: The response to my Nov. 28 entry on what to wear at Texans home games has drawn surprising reader response hours before the Texans host the Baltimore Ravens on "Monday Night Football" on ESPN. Thank you all for submitting comments. They have prompted a question for all fans:

Got time? Watch this
A well-dressed man likely will carry his own pen, a card case and perhaps even a linen handkerchief to dry another's tears. Most important, he must know what time it is. Like the American Express card, a man's watch is something he doesn't leave home without. David Yarbrough A Rolex is well-suited for the man […]

Hang on to your hats!
Plain and simple: The hats have it. After the holiday season, I always look forward to the annual Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo largely because of the cowboy hats. In general, men in this town wear 'em proudly. Period. Being a man of many hats (no pun intended; I sometimes wish I had more than […]

Dress for holiday cheers, not jeers
Looking festive for the holidays can be tricky.How much red you wear, for example, might be the difference between being the life of the party or a bad Santa. David Yarbrough Combining solid colors with plaid is important. Multiple patterns in one outfit result in a "busy" look. Click here or on the image above […]

Raise the bar, outdress your boss
When you see corporate executives dressing "down" in the workplace, keep your sartorial guard up. Unless you are Steve Jobs, who has made the mock turtleneck and jeans cool attire to wear as the head of Apple, it's not easy to pull off this look in the workplace and be taken seriously as a leader.

The casual elegance of a scarf
On the women's side of fashion, a scarf is a whimsically majestic complement that is worn effortlessly, either wrapped over the shoulders like a shawl or around the neck. For men, the width of the scarf is narrower and is worn around the neck. The color of the scarf can accentuate the tie as well […]

Who stole the sole? Leather vs. rubber
Every once in a while, I'm asked whether the sole of a shoe makes a difference in determining its level of "dressiness" or "casualness." I have observed men who shop for shoes taking no chances in selecting a leather-soled shoe to wear with business attire. Leather soles look better and the sides can be polished. […]

It's cool enough for cashmere to be 'in'
For the most part, Houston has two seasons: Hot and hotter. Except for the rare periods late in the calendar year when a cold front sweeps in and temperatures dip as low as the 30s (Fahrenheit). On Thanksgiving Day, the temperature was a comfortable 70-plus degrees. In the hours leading to Midnight Madness/Black Friday, the […]

Chinese boys beaten to death at school: Report
Published on Mar 29, 2013 4:02 PM
BEIJING (AFP) - Two boys were beaten to death by a staff member at their school in southern China, state media reported on Friday, in the latest violent attack against children in the country.
A male employee of the school in Yulin, in the southeastern Guangxi Zhuang region, allegedly hit and critically injured the boys in their dormitory early on Wednesday, the Xinhua news agency said, citing unnamed local government sources.
The two students - both fifth-graders - died after being taken to hospital, it said.
The report did not mention the boys' ages but fifth-graders in China are normally around 11.

Rob's been out and about since being cheated on by Kristen Stewart and we've got to say, he's never looked better! Do you agree?
When Kristen Stewart cheated on Robert Pattinson, Rob stayed out of the public eye for a while. But, since he's stepped out to promote Cosmopolis and have some fun, he's looked great!
The 26-year-old heartthrob hasn't let his heartache get him down. He's spent time with friends in Ojai, CA, gone to dinner with Katy Perry in Los Angeles, and had guy's nights out in New York. Is it possible he's even more swoon-worthy?
Take a look at the pics and let us know, do you think Rob looks better without Kristen, HollywoodLifers?

Yes he looks good but always has admittedly not so scruffy looking now hoody etc could never understand that for goodness sake he is not 17 but 26.he has to go out and put a brave face on it can't sit indoors all day every day.However nobody has seen either of them for last few days so just hope Rob and Kristen are at last meeting neither will get closure until this happens if they have been together for a few days and the chemistry is still their hope they resolve this mess soon.Most people are fed up with rubbish being printed for the sake of making headlines,as for taking sides fans are making this a no win for either of them.Until a joint statement is issued by them saying its over or not nobody can surmise anything.Just give them both some space and privacy it's two peoples lives here not a fantasy movie.Nobody will know exactly what has gone on as I suspect statement will be very brief and to the point. SO NOT OVER TILL ITS OVER.

Do you know why he looks the way he does in this photo .. it's because he knows as soon he get in the car leaves some moron gossip/ pap is gonna write another ridiculous story about him , and he knows for a fact all of them are gonna be more lies and he seems to be enjoying this whole mayhem , because i'm sure he thinks it's ridiculous and stupid … like a lot of people are saying … everybody thinks they know what's going on but in truth they absolutely no clue …. to me that speak volumes …. as funny and entertaining this crap is i am at this point tired of it , so please can we move on to something new that doesn't involve robert or kristen please ,,, this whole scandal/incident has "jumped the shark" !!!!!!!!!

This is so stupid…maybe if he looked like he gave a sh*t when they were together, she wouldn't have strayed??? She was obviously missing something from this "relationship".. Rob's not completely innocent. there usually is something happening or not happening to cause people to look elsewhere…

To Nik,
And just Rob fans THINK they know him. Just as crazy!!!
Would you still support him IF he decided to stay with her? HE knows her, and the issue more than you.
I am sure Rob loves hearing/reading about how much people hate on Kristen. I bet no matter how mad he got/is with her he would not want people being rude to her. She is/was a part of his life.

The fact that both of them have not been papped since Rob finished his promotional duties hopefully means that they are working things out. Weather they decide to stay together or not is their decision but I am willing to bet that they haven't called it quits yet. The media should stop publishing made up stories quoting so called friends,

I hope Rob gets to do BD2 promos alone or with either Ashley or Nikki. I can't wait to hear his sense of humor and insights into filming. Kristen can take her drama rama elsewhere as it's getting really old after four years. I am not in any mood to hear anymore rape, teacher, bird flipping, yelling or swearing cleanups. Thank you.

If what Rob and Kristen had was blessed, I'd hate to see what the average person has. For an actor, having your gf hump all over her director is probably considered a bad thing. Not sure where all these posters are coming from saying Rob needs to bail her out but good luck on that. I'd tell her to put it where the sun don't shine myself.
I totally agree with what Elena commmented .To salvage a relatinship demands alot of work.What Rob and Kristen had was blessed and it can´t just be thrown away.Dont listen to people, the rumors of the media.Just listen to your heart. She´s desperately asking for forgiveness and a a second chance,give this to her,and to yourself ,Rob.Take her to TIFF so she feels she has you by her side.THIS movie is very important to her, but she´s feeling vulnerable now.You´ve already
been through the promos of your movies and throuh a lot of interviews…so give her a helping hand, show her support, that´s what couples in love do.I`m sure you still love her deeply.

This beautiful man, looks so good……….
his eyes are so transparent,
denotes to be a good person
seems so naive, so free,
he has a big soul,
and this causes that you people
want to be near of Rob
because he Vous avez ce non qui est.
Wow……..I am very impressed with his personality!.

I have to wonder how Mr. Sanders got to the trail where Kristen met up with him? The US Weekly article states that this paparazzo knew she got a phonecall and he followed her to the spot. Yet Rupert is there waiting with no car. And the Pap pics are all taken facing her car which means the pap would of had to drive past her. I say BS. Kristen looked very uncomfortable in those pics and if you put them in a reasonable order you can see him as the aggressor. Maybe she gave in and kissed him, maybe she just didnt feel strong enought to push him off. We will never know. She didn't admit or apologize for having sex with him. She apologized for being in the situation that hurt Robert.
Whatever the case, its sad that the papparazzi preys on these celebrities and creates these public situations that should be handled privately. Most relationships have issues at one time or another. They take work and we should fight for them. Nowadays people are so quick to say dump them, divorce them. That is taking the easy way out. You don't fall out of love because of an issue in your relationship so you should do the work and try to salvage it. If you try and then realize its not working, well then at least you gave it all you had. I say this out of experience. From being married for 16 years and being with my husband since I was 18.

Everyone is looking for someone to blame in all this and she is an easy target, however what about the 41 yr old who entraped kristen by pretending to be devoted to his wife and kids, no doubt kristen was blindsided by this devoted married man, who i believe fully knew what he was doing. If it wasnt her it would have been someone else. look at his history?!
I seriously doubt this was anything more than the kissing in the pictures and of what i can see, is a girl and a powerful man old enough to be her father all over her, ok she should have put up more resistance but this man knew what he was doing.
If Rob loved her he would see this and put his ego aside and accept her desperate apology. YES it hurts, YES its all over the papers, but YES SHES HUMAN. I think they need to stick together through this and support each other not hide away. I seriously believe that the more these two ignore each other the more it will be an issue. Think about it, noones talking about Liberty and Rupert, b/c they are getting on with it.
Male pride is an strong and powerful thing, but Robert needs to see this for what it is and not for the inflated media response. If you love her talk to her, to come out of this unscathed, sort it out! dont let a dirty old man ruin a good thing, rise above it and stick together and move on, heads held high.

I think she really does love Rob. Kind of sad…b/C she is really just a college-aged kid who should be getting ready for her senior year, last carefree year of her life. Don't get me wrong–I don't pity her. She has had a charmed life. But these things will never be her reality–the things that help us to grow into adults, the things that are important to experience. Instead of maturing by getting her heart broken after a one-night stand after a frat party, or cheating on her boyfriend her sophmore year, or having a nightmare college roommate, she is the scandal of the year not just in her town, not just in her region, not just in her country, but worldwide. How awful.
Kristen screwed up. But at the end of the day we all will move on, see BD2, & she will be left with the experience of maturity by fire. He needed to be the adult & not seduce someone who would otherwise be a college kid.
I hope Rob can see all of this & give her another chance. I am willing to bet that after all of this she won't cheat on him, or anyone else, ever again…

I can't believe US Weekly is commenting on how this won't hurt Kirsten's career – as if they care! Kristen Stewart is a 22 year old girl and she is hardly the first girl to have her head turned by an older more experienced man in a position of authority over her. US Weekly isn't talking about that however or about the fact that she didn't have an affair – she shared some kisses. They also aren't mentioning the fact that there could have been other factors involved…like she may have been drinking and as a result lost some inhibitions. Or been pressured by the older married director who should have known better and had more respect for the life he's built and the career that was finally taking off.
I feel sorry for Kristen and Rob and I have nothing but contempt for US Weekly and those invasive and unethical parapazzi. Kristen made a mistake but she's a kid, it happens. I respect her for making such a public apology and I hope Rob gives her another chance. I think these two really love each other and it would be a shame to lose that because of a few ill judged moments on Kristen's part and the greed of a slimey tabloid and some scumbag photographers. I'm sure this is hard for Rob but if he can step outside his ego and focus on the love he has for Kristen I bet they can make it work.

i agree with you he said that he loved her from the first time he saw her in a move call into the wild i heard him say that in an interview and when he got the part for twilight and saw who was playing bella that's when deceided to play the roll of edward. i love them both from thefirst time i saw them together so from the way he is carrying on like she nothing i hate to say this but now that his career is going good for him he don't need her anymore i'm not saying what she did was ok but every body makes mistakes apparently people from england are perfect i hope he stay perfect and never need any to foregive him for anything he don't want to be in the same room with her because of all this stuff well he shouldn't care what the media are writing about her you don't her just tell her instead of ripping heart out everybody and even your friends don't want you to go back with her so for god's sakes just tell her she is going through a lot and no one is on her side kristen keep your head up and ask the lord to help you and he will don't beg him any more he just don't want you he have his career now that's the way i feel i'm just ashame of the hole cast treating her like that

Ironhorse from the tips is 6,889 yards, and 143 slope, and the course plays tough, but there are 4 sets of tees all the way down to 5,300 for the Gold tees.
The course blends in with the land with a creek running through the layout, rock outcroppings, and huge oaks trees bordering the fairways, and good elevation changes. Generous fairways and greens, designed by Hurdzan and Fry in 2008 as part of a residential development. It's located at 154th and Misson Road, in Leawood, and is a muni, owned by the City of Leawood.
Great golf course managed by Troon Golf. Will require a variety of shots. 5 tees to pick from. My favorite in the area. Review by Go14man

U.S. Senator Tom Udall is looking to introduce new laws to improve child welfare in the nation and he is asking New Mexico for suggestions on where to go from here.
The room located in the Youth Development Inc. building in downtown Albuquerque was a giant think tank. Local social service groups, non-profits, and community leaders were the drivers of the ideas.
New national rankings put New Mexico last in child wellbeing. Sobering news for the people in charge of making sure the state's children are safe.
"We're 50th in so many categories, be it income equality, education, and child wellbeing," said Doctor Veronica Garcia with the New Mexico voices for children.
She says "yes, we are in a bad place" but its discussions like these that will help us get out of it.
"We're going to need a bold-bold move, to move New Mexico and not lose a whole generation of children," she said.
Attendees put a big emphasis on the local need for early childhood education and family counseling programs as part of a solution.
Udall says although he operates on the federal level, he wants to introduce legislation that will cater to New Mexico's child wellbeing issues, which he says goes in hand with child abuse and child neglect.
"I'm trying to go to the people who are in the trenches," he said, "who are seeing this every day and brainstorm on what are the things that would make a difference in New Mexico."
On the state level CYFD is also reforming their system...to make sure children don't fall through the cracks.
That includes improving communication with law enforcement.

I also thought since the chart doesn't cover all sizes: Each quart of mash tun capacity can handle: Max grain @ 1.25qt/lb = .6lbs Total strike .1875 gallons Total in tun .2435 gallons
Wow, thank you Bobby! That second explanation you gave helped a ton. So basically I calculated the Max OG, not tun size needed. I think I have just one other question...the 17 you divide by, is that from the max OG calculation? Whereas, a 52 qt at 70% efficiency in 15 gallons would be (767/15 = 51) Meaning max OG of 1.51. I would divide by 15 instead of 17 in this equation: (Desired OG x Batch Size)/17 = mash tun size? Or is the 17 a static number and I'm just over thinking this?
Nice job Professor Bobby!
The 17 is max gravity points per quart of mash tun at 80% efficiency. Another way to say it is that it would be 21 gravity points per quart at 100% efficiency. You can rewrite the formula like (desired OG x Batch Size in gallons) / (21 x estimated efficiency in decimal) = mash tun size in quarts. I think it's safe to assume a 70% efficiency though so just use 15 gravity points per quart of mash tun as an estimate.
I've read and been messing with the numbers now for a little bobby, I get it now. Great write up, hopefully they sticky this, I'm sure it will help many people. Looks like an 80 qt. will be optimal for my needs. Thanks again for helping someone as mathematically challenged as myself!
Has this not been stickied yet? wtf?
Nice post Bobby Cheers Steve
-fidjit Primary: Empty Secondary: Empty Kegged: Kolsh Planned: Witbeer
Thanks for the post. My comments: If you mash looser than 1.5 qt/lb, you will need a bigger tun. A 5 gallon tun isn't a total waste. I use mine for smaller beers and as a HLT. Also, if you decide to move from a 5 gallon to a 10 gallon cooler, you may be able to replace the plastic valve mechanism or plug the hole and turn the cooler back into a cooler again. All of that said, a 10 gallon cooler is only about $20 more than a 5 gallon cooler (if you're buying and not scavenging), and is money well-spent.

Businesses can generate more leads using local and mobile SEO strategies designed to boost search engine rankings and drive traffic. With the help of a plastic surgery SEO expert, your business can dominate the competition in Google, Bing and Yahoo! A good example of this a site I am currently working on targeting the search term "tummy tuck Las Vegas". So, how does an SEO expert improve your website's search engine ranking and help generate more leads?
On-Page Optimization
While the bulk of On-Page search engine optimization is often done at the website's design phase, a professional can help by going through your code and cleaning it up where necessary, ensuring that pages are properly indexed. This includes:
Checking the site navigation to ascertain that it is both user friendly and search engine friendly
Checking your content to ensure proper keyword saturation, including meta tag optimization
Off-Page Search Engine Optimization
It is very important that you understand proper keyword, meta tags, article submission and title use, otherwise you should seek the services of a pro. Quality backlinks can help boost your site's ranking on Google. An SEO expert can help submit your site to social networks and directories on your behalf. Since they work with optimization and search engines on a regular basis, they know exactly what needs to be done to get your site to rank on top of search engine results pages (SERPs).
Well Written Content
Whilst link building is essential, you should never forget about the importance of creating useful content. Invest your time researching various subjects related to your site and niche, and in turn deliver quality content that will be indexed by Google (and other popular search engine) spiders. Create content that is not only well researched, but also keyword rich.
While no legit SEO expert can guarantee to bring your site at the top of SERPs, you can increase the possibility of improving your site's ranking by hiring a credible SEO professional.

Republicans looking for any sign of hope for the presidential election - beyond the temporary Obama/Clinton fight - haven't been able to find it in recent special elections for the House of Representatives.
If three strikes and you're out is the rule in both baseball and politics, then Republicans look to be finished this fall. They've lost not one, not two, but three special elections for House seats in recent months.
Although we don't yet know who our next president will be, there is one thing that is certain. Our next president will inherit a profoundly damaged economy when he takes office next year.
Of course, political party hacks will try to blame it on the opposite party. Rick Howell, I'm sure, will tell us how it is all the Republicans' fault and how the "Democrats" are gonna save us all.
Sen. Arlen Specter just doesn't get it.
While he's out running around worrying about whether the New England Patriots stole signals during a football game, the country he supposedly represents is teetering on an economic cliff.
Gas prices are nearing $4 a gallon, homes are being foreclosed on at record numbers and folks are scared about what might be next.
And, in case he forgot, the country's at war.
The honorable Republican from Pennsylvania needs a reality check.
Heartfelt 'Thank you'
This is a thank you to the community of Bedford on behalf of Garth Morck, (regarding the day of April 21, 2008):
Unless you have experienced a near tragedy of such magnitude you can't imagine the thoughts/fears that go through one's mind and there was really only one thing that got me and our family through the entire ordeal, and that was the prayers, love and support from our community of Bedford. We cannot thank everyone enough.
The application from American Electric Power (AEP) for renewal of the operating license for the Smith Mountain Project has been forwarded and accepted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
As many of you know, the Tri-County Re-licensing Committee (TCRC) is not satisfied with the level of detail in each of the management plans submitted with the application for the stewardship of the lakes. TCRC's concerns have been sent to AEP and FERC. It is our understanding that FERC will be asking AEP for additional information to expand the application.
On Friday, April 25, youth in Bedford participated in Global Youth Services Day.
On this international day of community service, more than 75 individuals took part in many worthwhile activities throughout Bedford County. The staff of Bedford Community Resource Center would like to thank all of the groups, businesses, organizations, and individuals who made this such a remarkable day.
It was Alexis de Tocqueville who once said, "The tie of language is perhaps the strongest and the most durable that can unite mankind". It is has never been more critical that we work to teach everyone English. According to the U.S. Census, almost twelve million Americans do not speak English. The number of Americans who do not speak English has increased 176 percent over the last twenty years.
As economic stimulus checks are being sent to Americans the by U. S. Treasury, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is alerting you to three schemes that crooks are trying to work.

TEHRAN – Head of Iran Football Federation (IFF) Ali Kaffashian said that Carlos Queiroz will remain as the country's coach.
Carlos Queiroz announced his retirement following Iran's World Cup exit, however, the Portuguese returned to Iran and said that he is ready to negotiate with the Iranian federation but they should offer him a written request.
"We've offered our suggestions to him on contract renewal and we will have to wait to hear from him," Kaffashian told IRNA.
It has been widely reported the new deal costs four million euros (2.5 million for himself and 1.5 million for his assistants) per year. IFF had already announced it could not afford to pay that.
"We should be able to provide financial resources. We also want the Iranian coaches have a chance to work in the staff," IFF president added.
Iran opened the 2014 World Cup campaign with a goalless draw against Nigeria. The Persians suffered a late painful loss against Argentina and lost to Bosnia and Herzegovina 3-1 in Group F.
Team Melli is preparing itself for the 2015 Asian Cup, which will be held in Australia from January 9 to 31.

Vacations Boost Pleasure, Expedia Study Finds
While the impact of vacation on overall happiness is clear, Americans' general sense of their own happiness was more mixed. Less than half (45%) of employed Americans report a general level of satisfaction with their job, and a similar number of Americans (47%) report satisfaction with their love life.
Americans often find it difficult to leave their work behind when they head off on vacation.
Those who check in with work once a day or more while on vacation are much more likely to indicate a high stress level than those who check in fewer than once per day, or not at all.
More than half of employed vacationers who take any vacations in a typical year make a habit of checking in with the office. Roughly one third (32%) of these vacationers check in at least once a day. 59% of men make a habit of checking in with the office, versus 49% of women. However, a full 46% of employed Americans who take any vacations in a typical year report that they "never" check in with work while on vacation.
Those employed Americans who have taken a vacation within the past year are more likely to be satisfied with their job than those who have not taken a vacation in five years or more. Survey Methodology This survey was conducted online within the United States between March 19-21, 2013 among 2,076 adults ages 18 and older by Harris Interactive on behalf of Expedia via its Quick Query omnibus product. This online survey is not based on a probability sample and therefore no estimate of theoretical sampling error can be calculated.

Product Details
AKA: Deltron Zero; Sir Dzl Member of: Hieroglyphics; Deltron 3030; Handsome Boy Modeling School; Gorillaz Producers: Boogiemen; Del The Funky Homosapien (of Hieroglyphics); Ice Cube SummaryOne can't talk about classic 90s hip-hop without talking about Del The Funky Homosapien, one of the genre's more eccentric figures. Though he's primarily famous today for his guest appearances with Gorillaz & Handsome Boy Modeling School, Del has inspired new generations of alternative hip-hop artists with his humorous lyrics, and eclectically funky production values. It all began here with his 1991 album, I Wish My Brother George Was Here.Del's debut has been heralded as a benchmark album for alternative hip-hop, bolstered by P-Funk inspired beats produced by Ice Cube, (Del's cousin) and featuring the underground hits "Dr. Bombay" and "Mistadobalina." (#9 on the 1992 Hot Rap Tracks chart.) Equal parts clever, thought-provoking, and goofy, I Wish My Brother George Was Here has been credited with injecting some humor and irreverence into the otherwise dour West Coast hip-hop culture of the 90s. Traffic Entertainment Group is proud to re-issue this classic album from a classic era, so that new generations may be exposed to Del The Funky Homosapien's witty and innovative rhymes. |

No need to check your equipment if you're listening to this record at night: Those are crickets you hear on the recording — or an electronic analog of crickets. Did John Gross and Todd Novosad sample animals for virtually all of the sounds here? Possibly. It's also entirely possible that this single track of ambient sounds — which evokes the sensation of being next to a swamp, replete with the sound of herons and frogs and other "creatures" — is made of electronic constructs. But it might as well be replicants of dragonflies, bats and mosquitoes à la Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? making a virtual appearance. Gross and Novosad have taken a terrestrial environment and created a sonic model of it; the results are darker and more mysterious than the original, simultaneously calming and slightly unnerving.

Jon Wilson helps victims talk with perpetrators - and find closure
When victims go behind bars to talk with those who did them harm, they receive something the legal system doesn't provide: a chance to find real closure, maybe even forgiveness.
Brooklin, Maine
On the night of Jan. 31, 2001, a 19-year-old named Joel Turner was in an apartment in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood when three young men broke in. One of them carried an unusual knife, a foot-and-a-half long. A driver waited in a van outside.
In moments, the lives of these young men were viciously broken. Mr. Turner had been stabbed to death. Three of the men would go to prison for their roles in what happened that night. The crime left Turner's family in confusion and pain.
The thought of being able to face in person someone who has committed a horrible crime against you or a loved one can stir dark instincts. But it also can be a path toward resolution, healing, and, for some, even forgiveness.
Janet Connors, Turner's mother, has met behind bars with two of the men involved in her son's death. It is not the sort of meeting a grieving parent is likely to want to experience alone.
That's where Jon Wilson steps in.
Mr. Wilson owns a business dedicated to boats and boat building, a craft as artful and precise as the taking of a human life is violent and horrid. Wilson was there with Ms. Connors, as he's been with dozens of victims of violent crimes, because he believes such meetings are crucial to the healing process.
This concept, called Victim Offender Dialogue (VOD), lets agonized victims or their surviving loved ones do something the justice system rarely lets them do: talk with the wrongdoer.
"I believe that the process of giving voice is therapeutic," says Wilson, who is not a professional therapist. "When a survivor is able to give full voice to their feelings, they suddenly feel heard in a way they never could have in any other context."

Overcoming Obstacles to Evolution Education: Why Bother Teaching Evolution in High School?
- Louise S. Mead,
- Glenn Branch
- … show all 2 hide
Evolution is a foundational organizing principle of the life sciences, and yet people still argue that it should be taught only in college, urging that it's not necessary, too controversial, or too difficult to teach evolution in high school. Faced with such arguments, teachers and administrators need to have responses. Moreover, they need to teach evolution so that the coverage of evolution in the K-12 curriculum reflects its central place in biology.

Very Fast Shipment. Very prompt communication. Prices were also reasonable. Highly recommended.
I HATE working on cars but in these tough economic times I LOVE saving $700. I finally got my courage up after reading a bunch of internet pointers on how to replace the brakes myself. My local autopart place did not carry all the required parts so I went hunting on the internet. I spent several evenings going from site to site. In the end not only was PartsGeek one of the simplest websites to use, PartsGeek also had the lowest price. I was very impressed with the quality of service I got on the phone and the thoughtfull answers to my questions. In the end I ended up actually placing the order over the internet but the service representive would have just been just as happy to take my order via the phone. I hate overpaying for shipping and I loved the $14 dollars 2 day shipping of PartsGeek. My guess is that since brake rotors are rather heavy and it took 2 different boxes to send my complete order that PartsGeek lost money on the shipping charges. I have placed 2 orders with them now.

Since ICS whenever I select a text or email from the notification screen it wants me to enter my lock pattern even when the lock screen is off. I use the No Lock app to turn off my lock screen easier. I've tried using a different app it doesn't seem to matter. I've tried different lock screens and I believe it does it for all the lock screens except the slide lock. Anyone have any suggestions to fix this? Right now I clear the notification and go to the texts or whatever through the icon or app on the home screen but thats annoying something. So if anyone has this problem or has fixed this problem please let me know. thanks.
Have the same issue, I just put the Gmail widget up and go there to open it up. Or if I forget power off and power back on (double click) and no pattern. But I would like to cure it once and for all too.
Before the update went over the air did you try and install it manually a week early? I did so i'm wondering if that might have something to do with it.
If you put the lock to engage 30 minute after sleep at least it gives you 30 without a PIN, of course you still have to enter it the first time.
But that wouldn't effect my issue. Even when I turn off the lock screen it asks for it when I select something from the notification bar. I wouldn't want to let it wait that long anyways. I have it set to two minutes I think. It doesn't make any sense to have to enter the patter in the notification bar anyways.
Can anyone say if this is a known issue or is it just a few of us experiencing it? I'm actually a little suprised more people haven't commented on this. Maybe i'll go try the motorola forums as well. Another thing my phone is doing now is sometimes when I turn the screen back on it brings up the sliding lock screen even though I have pattern selected.
So I asked this in the motorola forums and the guy said it was because of the no lock widget I use and he was right. It doesn't make sense to me that it would make it so when you select something in the notification bar and ask you for the password or pattern but it did. I deleted that widget and it works like it should. So for everyone else having this issue disable a app or widget that can turn the lock screen on and off and it should resolve the problem.
Aah, I thought you wanted to retain a lock widget, in your OP you stated you tried different apps. I like my lock so I can double tap to lock my phone, but usually it just sits around unlocked. Yeah I removed my No Lock app and reinstalled it right after ICS and knew that was the cause but tried unsuccessfully to find a cure with it on my phone. Glad your happy.
Do you currently use a lock widget with out the problem I described? I tried the auto lock from widgetzoid but that gave me the same problem.
I still have no lock, still have to "PIN" to access once I pull down the notification bar. But got my Gmail and text widgets on the home screen so I don't have to pull. Still do it quite a bit out of habit though, then I just double tap the power button.
Hi - I am confused. I used to use a lock screen delayer but thought that with ICS I would not need it. Upgraded today and find that if I set a delayed pattern lock screen then if I switch off and straight back on I have the normal swipe screen where I thought I should just have an open screen. If I set the lock to None then there is no swipe screen. So why when I have chosen to have a patern lock but delayed it, should there also be a swipe lock (which lock nothing but does get in the way). Is this the way it is designed to work? Is there anything I can do to get rid of the swipe screen and still keep a delayed pattern or PIN lock?

Richmond Strip
The Richmond Avenue Entertainment District, commonly known as the Richmond Strip, is an entertainment district[disambiguation needed] along Richmond Avenue along in western/southwestern Houston, Texas. It was especially popular in the 1990s, but it later declined as a partygoing destination in favor of other areas of town, such as Washington Avenue.
Marty Racine of the Houston Chronicle said "At the dawn of the '90s, geographically dysfunctional Houston lacked anything resembling an "entertainment district."."[disambiguation needed][1] Originally the Richmond Strip housed a few pickup joints and pool halls. After large chain establishments such as Billy Blues, Dave & Buster's, and Fat Tuesday moved into the area, bars began to appear in the area.[2] In 1993 Brad Tyer of the Houston Press said "The Richmond Strip has developed over the course of the past decade into a true entertainment district, a place to be and be seen, Houston's urban-sprawl equivalent of Sixth Street in Austin or Beale Street in Memphis or New Orleans' Latin Quarter -- part local destination and part tourist trap, offering sensory overload in exchange for dollars."[3] In 1995 Racine said "Elsewhere, Kirby Drive and especially Richmond Avenue are examples of strips where a bandwagon effect has spurred the proliferation of restaurants and clubs."[1] In 1994 Greg Hassell of the Houston Chronicle said that the Richmond Strip was "the city's party strip."[4] By 1997, the Richmond Strip became well known as a party destination in smaller communities outside of the Houston area. Jene Harper, the president of the Larchmont Civic Association, said "But I'll go out of town and people say, `oh, the Richmond Strip. I know where that is. It's where all the bars are.' In the small towns, El Campo, Sealy and all that, it's, `Oh, you're from Houston. You ever go to City Streets? Yeah.' They drive in all the way to go to City Streets."[5]
By 1995 residents of some surrounding residential communities, such as Glenhaven Estates, Lamar Terrace, and Larchmont, began asking for improved noise ordinances; the noise ordinances had been revamped two years before then. The clubs opposed the proposed noise ordinances.[2] In 1997 Hobart Rowland of the Houston Press said that the Richmond Strip was "the city's most successful and flashy entertainment drag."[6] At that time, the company Dennis Lange Promotions had an overwhelming majority of the live music setup business in the Richmond Strip; the company had exclusive arrangements with 45 Richmond Strip clubs, and the company gave occasional business to an additional 50 to 100 businesses.[6] By November 1997, residents of surrounding neighborhoods continued protesting the strip. Some of the major businesses of the strip had gone out of business. The Richmond Area Management District had been created during the final Texas Legislature session before November 16, 1997. The Richmond Avenue Merchants Association (RAMA) had promoted the creation of the management district.[5] Harper argued that the existence of the Richmond Strip was necessary. She said "As far as bringing conventions and other things, there needs to be an entertainment district and, right now, Richmond is the district. There's not one downtown like Dallas. You don't have a West End. There's no Deep Ellum."[5]
Decline and change[edit]
Mike McGuff of KIAH-TV said "But things cooled off by the late 1990s. You probably also heard reports of shootings and other crime in the area that didn't help matters."[7] By 2003, crime had been increasing in the Richmond Strip.[8] By 2008, the party scene had declined, with the new areas of the Greater Houston club scene being Downtown Houston, Midtown Houston, and Washington Avenue. As of 2008, 1990s music plays in many area clubs, and many establishments use "z"s in place of "s"s, such as "Dreamz" instead of "Dreams." John Nova Lomax of the Houston Press said "It's a life of, as Wash Allen from KCOH would put it, "dealing with" strippers, or dealing with the kind of guys who are attracted to dealing with that sort of thing. As a philosophy. It's full of apartment poolside parties, bad cocaine, the occasional dose of clap, tanning bedz [sic], jello shotz [sic], big ass beerz [sic], and cold Jager machinez [sic]."[9] Lomax concluded "And it seems that Houston no longer really wants the Richmond Strip. Sure, a few holdovers from the glory days remain, such as the Sam's Boat empire, Centerfolds, La Bare (where "Cannon" from New Orleans is scheduled to appear), Dave and Buster's and so on, but you think that all of these place would leap at any favorable lease they could get inside the loop."[9] In 2010 Craig Hlavaty, Shea Serrano, and Mike Giglio of the Houston Press said that the Richmond Strip was "Houston's last real nightclub row" before the emergence of Washington Avenue.[10]
In 2010 some club owners in the area said that the Richmond Strip is rising as an entertainment destination; they cited the opening of Scott Gertner's Sports Bar Live.[7] David Gertner, the father of Scott Gertner, owner of Sports Bar Live, said that geography was favorable.[7] McGuff also said that many Houstonians had a nostalgia for the Richmond Strip.[7]
The Richmond Strip is located in western Houston/[2] southwestern Houston.[11] Residential areas are not located directly on the strip.[12]
Brad Tyer of the Houston Press said in 1993 that the Richmond Strip is bordered by Hillcroft Street to the west and Chimney Rock Road to the east.[3] John Nova Lomax said in 2003 that it extends "from Sage or Chimney Rock to Hillcroft, or Fondren, or Gessner, or wherever it finally peters out into a ramshackle succession of car repair shops and tire barns out by Beltway 8."[8] The district has very large bars and clubs; some have over 50,000 square feet (4,600 m2) of space each. Lomax said that Richmond Strip establishments were "spread out and huge," while most entertainment districts were "cozy and pedestrian," therefore "The Richmond Strip is a very Houstonian take on the concept of an entertainment district."[8] The Richmond Strip was not designed as a walkable environment; bars and clubs may be separated by long distances ranging from hundreds and thousand feet, to even 1 mile (1.6 km). Instead patrons were expected to travel to the area by automobile and use automobiles to travel to all area accommodations. Lomax said "The strip is designed so that you park and get out at one bar, or get the valet to do it for you, and do so again and again as the night wears on."[8] In 1994 Greg Hassell of the Houston Chronicle said that there were few old buildings in the Richmond Strip area.[4]
John Nova Lomax of the Houston Press, as paraphrased by Mike McGuff of KIAH-TV, said that "a major problem with the area was the fact clubs were scattered down a long stretch of road and mixed in with non-entertainment businesses. That made it hard for folks to walk, especially after a few cold ones. It's also clear that having fun and traffic don't mix."[7] David Gertner, the father of Scott Gertner, owner of Scott Gertner's Sports Bar Live, expressed a belief that the geography of the Richmond Strip was favorable for the area coming back; he said "Don't forget it is very convenient for all parts of the city and it's right off the freeway which makes it very good."[7]
Demographics of business patrons[edit]
This section requires expansion. (May 2012) |
As of 2001 the majority of clubgoers in the Richmond Strip were white.[12]
This section requires expansion. (May 2012) |
As of 1997 each year the St. Patrick's Day parade and the "Hou-Dah" parade occurred at the Richmond Strip and RAMA sponsored them.[5] The Hou-Dah parade had moved its street celebration to the Richmond Strip in 1995.[13] Previously the Hou-Dah parade was held during the Mardi Gras parade in Galveston.[14]
In the 1990s, on Spring Break about 40 to 50 police officers patrolled the Richmond Strip as part of the Joint Richmond Club District Spring Break Initiative.[15] The police also organized the Richmond Avenue traffic initiative, a patrol which occurred on Saturday nights.[16]
Lt. Doug Perry of the Houston Police Department (HPD) said that after 1996, crime on the Richmond Strip had decreased 90% after he installed a program to increase the presence of police officers and divert trafifc.[17] In 2000 Sgt. Michael P. Kelly of the HPD Westside Division said in 2000 that every Saturday night on the Richmond strip, one shooting, stabbing, or killing occurred.[16] In 2001 Lt. S.K. Boyce of the Houston Police Department said that there were more arrests occurring along the Richmond Strip than along Martin Luther King Boulevard in South Park, where a 10-block cruising scene occurred habitually on Sunday evenings. Boyce said that of those arrested on the Richmond Strip, most were White.[12]
By 2003, crime had been increasing along the Richmond Strip. From January 2003 to May 2003, 107 robberies, 73 aggravated assaults, 10 shootings, five rapes, several attempted vehicular homicides, and several successful vehicular homicides. In almost all of the violent crimes reported on the Richmond Strip, automobiles were a key aspect, while guns were not always a key aspect in violent crimes. John Nova Lomax of the Houston Press said "In other words, guns don't kill people, but people who keep guns in their cars kill people."[8] William Martin, a sociologist from Rice University, said that he suspected that many of the perpetrators had consumed alcohol.[8] By June 2003 multiple violent crimes had occurred in the Richmond Strip.[18] Around July 2003, shootings occurred in three weekends in a row. This caused the HPD Westside Division to more strictly enforce laws against illegal U-turns at the intersection of Hillcroft Road and the 6300 and 6400 blocks of Richmond.[17] In the year leading up to July 28, 2003, nine people were injured and five people were killed in violent attacks in the Richmond Strip.[19] In 2011 Richard Connelly of the Houston Press said that the Richmond Strip was "not generally known for outright murder."[20]

POSTED: Monday, December 17, 2012 - 6:56pm
UPDATED: Monday, January 14, 2013 - 10:21am
Tyler, Tx — The first part of what I'm about to say came from a guy on Facebook this past weekend.
I don't even know the guy, but he summed up how I felt about Friday's horror.
And I paraphrase, "people look for some kind of fix-all solution whether it be gun control or mental illness treatment. I'm reminded by a quote from Barbara Bush who said 'your success as a family, our success as a society depends not on what happens at the White House, but what happens inside your house."
For most of my life, I've seen us take God or any morality of out the school and substitute it with so called "reason." If it feels good do it was the cry back in the 70s. We did it and now look.
I've seen Hollywood mock family values and what so many of us used to stand for. A lot of good people didn't want to be made fun of or called out, so they shut their mouths and took it.
You look at the violence in games and on the screen and TV and we have been desensitized.
But now, when the mess we've made is coming back to haunt us, what do our leaders do? They once again stand up
like kids wanting to ask a question in class and want to ban guns or have hearings or just be seen.
What happened Friday is just not a gun issue. This is a heart issue.
And until we change that, we'll see much more of what we've seen the past few days.
That's my point, of view what's yours?
You can email me at email@example.com [2] or Facebook me at KETK Neal Barton [3].

Hi there!
As the thread name states, I downloaded the Auction House application for android (from the android market, from the same developer that has the authenticator, Blizzard, that is). I used it last night, checked my auctions, things worked fine. When I woke up the following moring, my account was hacked. Right now, everything ingame is fixed and I was told that I probably have a keylogger on my computer. I seached the computer now with malware/spyware and antivirus/internet security programs such as Kaspersky and spybot S&D, found nothing. Later I was browsing through the comments on this perticular application, apperently more players has had their accounts hacked right after using this application. I'm fully aware of that phones can have keyloggers aswell, but my phone is a brand new Nexus S that just met it's first internet connection, last night. So I highly doubt that is the case. This is the android developer of Blizzard, is it not? http://www.androlib.com/android.developer.blizzard-entertainment-inc-jFzj.aspx Released applications: Battle.net Authenticator - Version 1.0.1 (The one I'm using right now, after being hacked. Works like a charm) WoW Remote Auction House - Version 1.0.3 (The one I just threw out of the window) What gives, Blizzard?

Oprah Winfrey is having a fangirl moment, you guys!
The TV host interviewed Hugh Jackman for an upcoming episode of her hit show Next Chapter and found herself in a tizzy over the actor's toned bod!
"Having lunch convo with @HughJackman…omg those abs are Real!" she posted on her Instagram account.
PHOTOS: Take a look at Oprah's year after the Oprah show
Winfrey's been a longtime fan of the Aussie hunk and never hides her true feelings…can you say, schoolgirl crush!? Usually O is so calm, cool and collected!
Ever since she first interviewed him in 2006 for O, The Oprah Magazine, the media mogul has been positively smitten with the X-Men star.
I mean, can you blame her?
