This unique braided hairstyle is lesser known, but it is making the rounds on Pinterest from a few wonderful sites.
What I love most about this braid is how easy it is to do, however the finished product looks so complicated {like you spent an hour on it}! If you know how to French Braid, you can do this hairstyle easily with only a small tweak to the stranding!
When you are finished braiding, you simply grab the center part of the braid about 1-2 inches below the ponytail holder. Then, gently pull that part of the braid up over top of the ponytail holder {secure it there} and the whole braid literally "pops" out into a super-cute 3D braid!
After watching the video, you can clearly see why this hairstyle is called a "cage braid" because the style effect looks very much like a ribcage. My girls and I fully plan on using this braid in a Halloween hairstyle using a red-heart bobby pin stuck in the right side of the cage.
It would also make for a fun Christmas party hairstyle because the braid could easily be decorated as a tree! Many fans will likely use it for Crazy Hair Day because it does have a very unique look to it!
Although I know this hairstyle may not be for everyone, I promise you will receive many compliments from people on it, with most wondering how in the world you were able to do it! Our secret is… that it only took 5 minutes! How neat is that???
Items Needed: Rat-tail comb, spray bottle, two ponytail holders, 4 bobby pins, hairspray and accessory {if desired}
Time Requirement: 5 minutes
Skill Level: Medium

Hello Ladies!!! One of the most frequent requests I receive is for a "basic tutorial" on how to French braid.
Since so many of my braid and twist hairstyles incorporate the basic stranding used in a French Braid, we decided a few months back to film this tutorial. Although we uploaded it to YouTube, we never posted it here.
Many of you may already know how to French braid, but this video is really meant for those who are struggling, or simply do not know how. If you have "tweeners" who are almost teenagers, and you want to help teach your daughter how to do her own hair, this is a good start.
The French braid is a doorway style to pretty much anything you can think of… if you can master it, you can pretty much do any hairstyle. (Click here if you are looking for a cute French braid hairstyle for soccer, be sure to visit the link.)
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, one hair band, water bottle, hairspray, accessory (if desired).
Time Requirement: 5 minutes
Skill Level: Easy
Note from Mindy: I want to thank you all for the wonderful compliments you post here, on Facebook, YouTube or via email! I wish I had the time each day to respond to them all (literally 100's), but I do want you to trust me when I say that we read EVERY single one! Those compliments are what motivates me to keep going on this hairblog!

Comment on this post »Over the past few months I have received a few inquiries asking for hair headband hairstyles . You could say that the hair headbands are somewhat of a trend that is very popular with teens today. This style is a fairly simple one, and can be done in the normal French Braid style, or in the Reverse (Dutch) Braid style, depending on how you want it to look.
Also, you can finish the headband in any number of ways. You can leave the braid hanging on the one side, or you can do what I did and roll it up and bobby pin it into a super cute rosette. The latter is not a new concept and is not something I could claim, but the combination is wonderful.
Time Requirement: 5-7 minutes.
Skill Level: Easy
There you have it! If you like this hairstyle… be sure to let us know!

Comment on this post »About a month ago, a loyal follower emailed me a photo of a braided hairstyle , asking if I could replicate it and possibly do a tutorial. Never having seen it before, I was fascinated with how it looked and spent an hour or so trying to recreate it.
I did figure it out although the braid did take some practice to get the stranding correct, but here is what the hair style looks like…
When I first posted the video on YouTube, a viewer commented that he had seen this braid style used on horse tails in horse competitions, etc. I can only describe this style as a Fishtail Braid that uses three strands (as in a typical braid) rather than two.
I think that this is a beautiful braid… good enough to not only be worn on horse tails! I coupled the style with the Hair-Wrapped Ponytail as a starting point. You could even opposing-curl strands of the remaining ponytail hair to add additional flair to the style! My #2 daugther was stopped time and time again in the hall at church this past Sunday by moms trying to figure out exactly how this hairstyle was done.
Personally, I think that the braid looks more amazing by using even smaller strands from the back.
Items Needed: Rat-tail comb, water bottle, and 2 ponytail holders.
Time Requirement: 10-15 minutes
Skill Level: Hard
If you like this braided hairstyle, be sure to let us know! Happy Hairdoing!

Comment on this post »So during my summer, during what little free time I had, I became hooked on Fox's summer repeat of the "Glee" musical TV series. Although the dramatic content is not suitable for children, I have shown my girls a few of the awesome musical numbers and mashups from albums that we all grew up with!
If you watch the series, you will notice that there are quite a few fun braided hairstyles worn by the girls. In my opinion, Dianna Agron's character Quinn Fabray has the most beautiful styles…
The series shows quite a few messy (loose) braid styles, and Quinn regularly sports a French Front as seen in the above photo. This hairstyle is perfect for teens/tweens, moms, and little girls. You will also notice that hairstyles like this are extremely popular right now, so I can guarantee that you will receive tons of compliments.
Items Needed: Rat-tail comb, spray bottle, one hairband, hairspray, (accessory if desired).
Time Requirement: 3-5 minutes.
Skill Level: Easy
The particular hairstyle I show below is a "double variation" of the style seen in Quinn's photo above, with a tieback to finish it off. If you choose to vary the style a bit for another day, feel free to try a Dutch Braid version!
Happy Hairdoing!

A 25-year-old South Milwaukee man was arrested for robbing TCF Bank, 8995 S. Howell Ave., Oct. 20.
According to the Oak Creek police log:
The man entered the bank about 11 a.m. wearing dark-rimmed glasses with a fake mustache attached to it, and handed a note to an employee that demanded money from her register. The note also stated not to use a dye pack or he would blow up the bank. The man then handed the employee a white plastic bag, which she filled with an undisclosed amount of money before handing it back to him.
He left the bank and was last seen walking west toward Kohl's.
During the investigation, police got a tip from a security guard at Caterpiller Global Mining in South Milwaukee, who said a man matching the description of the robbery suspect was at their facility that day speaking to another employee. A detective spoke to the employee, who said the man was his roommate. Officers went to the apartment in South Milwaukee and arrested the 25-year-old man.

The climate to which it responds the habitational module is a warm-tropical one, where there is a large porcentage of floods catastrophes.
The module proposes to lodge up to 5 people, and which can be adapted to host 10 people, 15 and/or 20 people, which can communicate or not, depending or the nomber of people for family.
The design is in a trapezial shape, which allows a mezzazine in the interior, helping it to not become a light crowded place, with good ventilation.
The inclined ceiling aid to the draining of the rainwater. The ground floor is a free plant where inflatable long cushions are located (beds), which can be moved with facility to give this way a versatility to the space.
The used materials are those naturally found in the area. The module is built by concrete dice which can be made, by rubble pieces leftover by the catastrophe; wooden floors and a wooden structure, petata made walls (made by two electrometallics nets filled with greed and grass), a rubber covering and a dark cloth to reduce the solar exposition.
The areas of toilets, kitchen, dining room, warehouse and informary are proposed on separated modules, in which a sanitary one would hold up to 16 people, one warehouse module, 2 kitchen modules, and 2 dining room ones. These would hold up to 512 people and an infirmary one up to 1024 people.
Stoicking can be done in large warehouses and the transportation in containers, in which one lorry can transport up to 30 housing units.

Apple is reportedly matching the close to $50 discount carriers and retailers have begun offering on the iPhone 4S. While carriers and retailers typically start discounting the current iPhone as it approaches the 1 year mark, and a next generation iPhone looms on the horizon, Apple matching them is somewhat surprising.
More →
Walmart is set to cut the price of the iPhone 4 to $114 on contract and the 8 GB iPhone 4 to $34. These are $54 and $74 price drops respectively, but it doesn't seem like many (if any) Walmarts have pulled the trigger on the new pricetags just yet.
Target and Radio Shack are dropping their prices on the iPhone 4. A lot of retailers typically do this to clear out inventory in anticipation for a new iPhone. We've seen it happen every year thus far.
If you're in the market for a new iPhone and don't care about waiting for the iPhone 5, you can get an iPhone 4 at Target for $149 (16 GB) and $249 (32 GB). Radio Shack also has a promotion this week cutting the prices to $169 and $269. If you trade in an existing iPhone, you can get an additional $100 off at Radio Shack.
As always, these prices will require you to sign a new 2-year agreement. I'd personally hold out for the iPhone 5 but if you aren't willing to shell out over $200 for a new phone, this may be the deal for you.
It appears VZBuzz has gotten their hands on some Verizon marketing material showing the iPhone 4 price dropping to $150.99. The screen also shows a plethora of Android and Blackberry price drops as well. I don't find it hard to believe this is legitimate as many carriers and retailers have been known to drop the price of the iPhone in anticipation of a new hardware announcement -- like iPhone 5 -- in order to clear out inventory.
Verizon currently offers refurbished iPhone 4's for $150, so could wesee a price drop in those as well?
Apple is now selling the 8GB iPhone 3GS for $49, half the price is was just a week ago, matching AT&T's recent price drop.
The Wall Street Journal today posted a comment from an analyst that Apple will remain "nimble" on iPad pricing and could lower it if demand is less than expected.
Um. Yeah. Okay. Did anyone, especially anyone who ever took Intro to Business 101, ever think anything different? Wait... Apple does.
Hudson, maker of a ton of different iPhone games, is offering a limited time free download for three of their most popular games! We already told you about Aqua Forest, but now Catch the Egg and Neo Same Game have also been price dropped to the low, low price of FREE. Act fast and download now because the free trial offer is supposed to end on Oct 12th, which is only a couple hours away!

- Drain the mushrooms, reserving 1 cup of the marinade. Pour the reserved marinade into a medium saucepan and boil until reduced to 1/3 cup, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool to room temperature. Add the minced garlic and season with salt. Stir in the celery and parsley. Spread the celery on a platter, spoon the marinated mushrooms on top and serve.
- Make Ahead: The mushrooms can marinate in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

"A lot of girls are afraid of him -- that was not the first time he did outrageous stuff to me. In a way I was scared to talk about it. One time one of the female officers witnessed him going off on me. Later she called me into her office, and I tried to deny it happened. I said, �What are you talking about?' She said, �Do you want to write him up?' I thought about it and said okay, if he doesn't find out. So I wrote him up. Two days later he threatened me.
"I found out about the investigation after that. One day in the cafeteria [another detainee] witnessed Clark talking very ugly to me. That night she came to the dorm and said, �Do you want to do something about it? We're writing a letter of complaint.' I said no, and she said why not. I said, �Nothing's gonna happen.'"
Ginette eventually did agree to provide a statement to justice department investigators. But that didn't make her or the other women who had complained feel more secure. "Even after all this broke," says Patricia, one of the first detainees to lodge formal complaints against Krome officers, "so much more was taking place [at Krome]." Ginette has told her attorney she received threatening phone calls -- she doesn't know from whom -- after she was paroled.
Several detainees reported officers bragging about their perceived immunity from punishment. "Clark would say he'd been investigated before, but no one could prove anything," recalls Rosana. "He'd say, �I'm still here; the people who accused me, they're the ones who got in trouble.'"
Indeed at least 40 incidents of violence toward detainees, stealing, drug trafficking, and other offenses by Krome employees (separate from the current sexual-abuse complaints) were reported from 1991 to 1997 by two undercover federal officers working for the justice department's Office of the Inspector General. Few of the cases were ever investigated, and few of the accused were punished. Instead the two male undercover officers received death threats. One was forced into retirement; the other, who had moved his family to Orlando out of fear for their lives, was warned this past March he's about to be fired.
Edward Stubbs, the reform-minded officer in charge at Krome who resigned in July 2000 after less than two years on the job, said recently he believes he and his staff were able to make some progress in their efforts to clean up the entrenched corruption at the facility. But when asked about the problems endured by the justice department's undercover informants, Stubbs demurred. "That's the one area I can't comment on," he said, a suggestion of anger in his voice.
If the undercover officers' allegations were shunted aside so readily, imagine the odds of a female detainee being taken seriously if she were accusing a male officer of sexual improprieties. The balance of power is so skewed it's no wonder the women would have found it beneficial to acquiesce in the abuses, no matter how degrading. "You've got people at the end of their ropes in a lot of ways," observes Wendy Young, director of government relations for the Women's Commission for Refugee Women and Children. "They're completely vulnerable to what guards tell them to do. They have nobody there who's a friend." Sooner or later the psychological consequences can be devastating. A huge proportion of women held at Krome, according to the detainees, have been treated at one time or another with antidepressants. More unfortunate ones were regularly rushed off to Palmetto Hospital's psych ward after attempting suicide.
This past November Margaret slit her wrists with a razor in a bathroom at Krome. She did it after learning she was about to be transferred to another county in Florida and her most recent plea for a stay of deportation had been denied. The prospect of not having to cope with Officer Nelson's escalating sexual advances was encouraging, though she knew many women were plagued by continued harassment from officers even after leaving the facility. But the thing Margaret couldn't bear to contemplate was indefinite separation from her children. "I thought there's no way out," she admits. "It was everything weighing down on me at once."
Amid the turmoil she lost her mind. She forgot how she'd been a faithful churchgoer, how she'd always taken the boys to Sunday school at the Baptist church down the block (the pastor later wrote a letter to the INS on her behalf), and how her parents and children still believed she would come back to them. "That night -- I never tried to kill myself before, so before I did it, it may sound silly -- I prayed to God," Margaret recalls. "I said, �I know I shouldn't be doing this, but I can't fight anymore. Please don't let my kids suffer.' And then I closed my eyes and just went for it. Later I learned I wasn't cutting deep enough."

Stereotaxis Receives Regulatory Approval Of Niobe(R) Technology In Japan; Begins Commercialization Efforts
ST. LOUIS, March 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stereotaxis, Inc. (Nasdaq:STXS) announced today that it has received regulatory approval of its Niobe® remote magnetic technology for cardiac ablations in Japan, a critical milestone in securing full market entry into the country. This approval allows the Company to begin marketing efforts, including establishing a local business infrastructure with in-country distributors, while working on obtaining reimbursement approval for full market entry, or the ability to initiate sales. Reimbursement approval is expected by the end of 2013.
Approval by the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency, Japan's equivalent to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, follows a successful three-year clinical trial of the Niobe system at the Tokyo Women's Medical University. The clinical trial was led by Dr. Morio Shoda and supported by the Company's industry collaborators in Japan.
William Mills, Chairman of the Stereotaxis Board of Directors, says the Japanese market, the second largest for medical devices behind the U.S., represents a significant growth opportunity for the Company. "An aging population, prominent cardiovascular institutions that embrace new technologies and favorable, universal health coverage create a very attractive environment for us to leverage our one-of-a-kind robotic navigation system," says Mr. Mills. "Our entry into Japan provides opportunity for meaningful growth in the Asia Pacific region and marks a major step towards our vision of becoming the first choice in the treatment of complex electrophysiology ablations for the global marketplace."
There are currently 570 hospitals in Japan performing approximately 38,000 electrophysiology (EP) procedures annually, 45% of which are atrial fibrillation (AF) cases. With the highest life expectancy among developed nations – 82.9 years – Japan has a rapidly growing senior population, currently at 23% and expected to reach 40% in the next 50 years. As AF and other arrhythmias are typically present in older individuals, the rate of EP ablations is anticipated to rise with the aging population. By 2018, industry analysts expect the country to experience 12% annual growth in EP procedures and a 22% annual increase in AF cases.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Swedish Medical Center Achieves Quality And Patient Experience Improvements After Implementing Tableau Software
In late 2012, Swedish deployed Tableau. It's quickly moving towards using Tableau as its primary enterprise-wide performance analysis and reporting platform.
"I think this simplification at low cost is going to be a really important foundation for Swedish to meet strategic goals. Everyone—operating room surgeons, medical directors, hospital administrators—over time will funnel to this same spot, across the Hospitals and the medical group," says Delafield. "Everyone involved has done a great job."
"While data has always been important to health care, new models are requiring organizations to reprioritize the way they understand and communicate their information," said Elissa Fink, Chief Marketing Officer at Tableau Software. "At the same time, non-profits like Swedish are challenged to be fiscally responsible. Tableau can help to make data more transparent without breaking the bank."
About Swedish
Founded in 1910, Swedish is the largest non-profit health provider in the Greater Seattle area. It is comprised of five hospital campuses (First Hill, Cherry Hill, Ballard, Edmonds and Issaquah); ambulatory care centers in Redmond and Mill Creek; and Swedish Medical Group, a network of more than 100 primary care and specialty clinics located throughout the Greater Puget Sound area. In addition to general medical and surgical care – including robotic-assisted surgery – Swedish is known as a regional referral center, providing specialized treatment in areas such as cardiovascular care, cancer care, neuroscience, orthopedics, high-risk obstetrics, pediatric specialties, organ transplantation and clinical research. For more information, visit www.swedish.org, www.swedishcares.org , www.facebook.com/swedishmedicalcenter, or www.twitter.com/swedish. About Providence Health & Services Providence Health & Services is a not-for-profit Catholic health care ministry committed to providing for the needs of the communities it serves – especially for those who are poor and vulnerable. In 2012, Providence affiliated with Swedish Health Services, expanding both organizations' ability to carry out their individual missions. With this affiliation, the combined scope of services includes 32 hospitals, 350 physician clinics, senior services, supportive housing and many other health and educational services. The health system employs more than 64,000 people across five states – Alaska, California, Montana, Oregon and Washington – with its system office located in Renton, Washington. In 2011, Providence provided more than $651 million in community benefit, including nearly $204 million in free and discounted care for those who could not afford to pay for care. Providence Health & Services continues a tradition of caring that the Sisters of Providence began more than 155 years ago. In 2011, Swedish provided more than $145 million in community benefit in Western Washington. Together, Providence and Swedish are working to improve quality, increase access and reduce the cost of care in all of the communities they serve. For more information, visit www.providence.org.

Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:Very small knife for the smaller work, I have it in my fishing gear box and I have to say this knife size is absolutely perfect for minor usage like cutting lines.
The folding mechanism seems risky but it's surprisingly well-built on all 5 of them.
Sharp enough for my use.
The button which unfolds the knife could(but not likely) be triggered if you have it in your pants, just to point out the risk of this, same if you have it in a fishing box if you start rooting in it, keep it in a separate place as you may cut yourself as the blade is very sharp and it springs up quick and hard.
I would wish for a safer unfolding button to prevent injury, compensate this by using caution as you should with any knife.
Best knife I've ever had for fishing, maybe not to kill or filé the fish but for all the small parts like linecutting where its difficult to have a huge rambo knife :P

MTV Cribs, Colorado style: Welcome to Gessler's, Kopp's and Tancredo's homes
Posted By Lynn Bartels On June 10, 2014 @ 1:32 pm In 2014 Colorado Governor's Race,2014 Election,Colorado Legislature,Colorado Politics,Gov. John Hickenlooper | 6 Comments
A Colorado version of MTV Cribs takes a sneak peak into the homes of three Republican gubernatorial candidates, providing some awesome behind-the-scenes scenes.
The footage includes: Secretary of State Scott Gessler [1] playing a duet with his young daughter; former Congressman Tom Tancredo [2] showing off his dog's "feng shui" water bowl; and former Senate Minority Leader Mike Kopp [3] making Irish stew at his farmhouse in the city where he and the family raise chickens and bees.
Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper [4] didn't respond to reGENERATION Colorado [5]'s request to participate, although there is a shot of the mansion. The campaign for former Congressman Bob Beauprez [6], another Republican running for governor declined to participate.
ReGENERATION Colorado is a nonprofit [7] aimed at engaging young people to talk about opportunity and polices that impact Coloradans in their 20s and 30s.
"It's not surprising that the next generation is totally turned off by politics when all they see of politicians is sound-bites in the media," said Michelle Lyng [8], executive director of reGENERATION colorado. "Our hope is that if we can make candidates from all parties more relatable, we can engage the next generation of Coloradans into public debate."

Volunteer firefighter arrested in connection with arsons
POSTED: Thursday, July 5, 2012 - 4:00am
UPDATED: Thursday, July 5, 2012 - 4:04am
Elk Ridge, UT (KSL) — Police have arrested a volunteer firefighter in connection with a string of arsons in the southern tip of Utah County.
Sgt. Spencer Cannon with the Utah County Sheriff's office said that six suspicious fires were lit in Loafer Canyon between June 25 and July 2 which piqued the interest of authorities.
"The nature of the fires made us a little suspicious of how and who might have been involved in this," Cannon said. "As it turns out, the individual who was arrested was a volunteer firefighter with the Elk Ridge Fire Department."
Kade Johnson, 18, is suspected in the crime and was arrested Tuesday evening. Cannon said that another arrest could be made.
The fires never developed to a life-threatening level, and volunteer firefighters were able to control them quickly, though both thick brush and apartments in the area according to Cannon.
"He's supposed to be on our side," Cannon said, referring to the fact that the man was a firefighter. "This happens occasionally. What's going through their mind we don't know, except that someone who is supposed to be with us in this regard has turned against us."

Death, death laid in torturous wake
As sunbeams lower find horrors wait
Fear looms o'er star lit skies
But will the moon light ever rise?
Let destroyers of courage reign?
And let dark fire take for gain?
But unsilenced freedom is not lost
For unshaken light has pierced the deep forest
One rises from dragons nest
Bearing mark of evil upon his chest
But low, the dead emblem glows
Moon's silver light and sunbeam gold
Hardened by hell yet blessed by the light
A legend rises in the untamed night
From flying gleams of iron bars
Blessed light of moon lit shards
To shining blade of crescent shape
Destroyed the hope of demons sate
And when arise the shadows screams
The Hunter fulfills the darkest of darkness' dreams

HoopsHype Darren Collison rumors
Marc Stein: With no sign-and-trade workable between Mavs and Clips, Collison opting to take portion of Clippers' MLE for chance to go back to LA area Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
Sam Amick: That Darren Collison salary with Clips is $1.9 million, I'm told, for the coming season. Great value & great fit. Clips keep loading up. Twitter @sam_amick
Bill Ingram: Darren Collison's camp is getting tons of calls . . .Spurs, Clippers, Cavs, Warriors, Kings - everyone waiting for Howard decision to commit Twitter @TheRocketGuy
Free agent point guard Darren Collison is intrigued by four teams as a possible landing spot and hasn't yet ruled out a return to the Dallas Mavericks, a league source told RealGM. Like so many across NBA free agency, Collison's future has been placed on hold by the decision Dwight Howard will make about the team he'll sign with. As an unrestricted free agent, Collison knows the importance of utilizing his options and "really wants to get his choice right," a source said. The Mavericks didn't extend Collison a qualifying offer. RealGM
If the Warriors lose Jack, a couple sources said Darren Collison is on the list of possible replacements. The former New Orleans Hornets stud has been on the decline the last few years with Indiana and Dallas. But he's still considered a formidable back-up guard and has some of the skills the Warriors would be losing in Jack. Contra Costa Times
If the Warriors lose Jarrett Jack, a couple sources said Darren Collison is on the list of possible replacements. Contra Costa Times
Dwain Price: The #Mavs did not tender qualifying offers to point guards Darren Collison and Rodrigue Beaubois, thus they are unrestricted free agents. Twitter @DwainPrice
Marc J. Spears: Point guard Darren Collison becomes an unrestricted free agent after Mavericks decline to make a qualifying offer, source tells Y! Sports. Twitter @SpearsNBAYahoo
Donnie Nelson: "We've been spoiled with Jason Kidd and Steve Nash before, and I think the point guard position is just a really important one. I'd say that that's up there. That's no disrespect to anyone. Darren Collison did a terrific job with a tough situation, and we would certainly be open to the conversation of him coming back." Dallas Morning News
Darren Collison believed he would be a full-time starter but wound up starting 47 games. Would he mind returning to Dallas in a reserve role? "I'm not going to say no, because I definitely experienced it, and I'm capable of playing off the bench," Collison said. "At the same time, I just know who I am as a person and as a player. I know I'm capable of playing for any team as a starter." Dallas Morning News
Darren Collison entered the season as the Dallas Mavericks starting point guard. During the final 23 games of the year, the 25-year-old came off the bench. Playing in the final year of his contract, some might think Collison and his agent have discussed a departure from Dallas. "To be honest, we haven't had too many discussions about anything, as of yet," Collison said during Thursday's end- of-season interviews at American Airlines Center. "I'm sure we are in the next few days or so, but as of right now, we haven't." Dallas Morning News
It was about a month ago when Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle told Darren Collison he was going to bring him off the bench instead of keeping him as his starting point guard. The news was not what Collison wanted to hear. "I think everybody knows how I took it," Collison said. "If anybody demoted you guys at your job I don't think you guys will be too happy about it. "That's just the competitor that I am. But at the same time I've always been a team player." Collison tried to take the demotion in stride. "At the end of the day you've just got to try to handle it classy and don't try to put yourself in front of the team," Collison said. "This is about the team. "Whatever Coach says, that's Coach's decision. I've got to be professional about it and go out there on the court and try to play." Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Meanwhile, Carlisle has always considered Collison as one of his starters, even if he doesn't start. "He's a virtual starter for us," Carlisle said. "And we've got two or three of them off the bench with him and Vince [Carter], and Brandan Wright now is kind of in that category. "But right now, for point guards coming off the bench, he's as good as anybody in this league. He's taking pride in it, he's working at it to help the team, so I'm really impressed with how his approach hasn't changed this year." Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Me: What offensive adjustments has Rick made this year? Dirk Nowitzki: I think honestly, he's been hard on (Darren) Collison and (O.J.) Mayo all year. He's challenged them to be better decision-makers on pick and rolls, on the fastbreak. I think both of them have made tremendous strides from earlier in the season. I think with Coach (Jim) O'Brien implementing his offense, we're playing a lot more movement. We're one of the fastest-paced teams in the league. I think we were number one for a while; I'm not sure if we still are. But we really like to push it now with our guards. If we don't have the break, we like to move it. Five guys touching it, swing it, pick and roll. If it's nothing on the first side, move it, get another pick and roll. It's a fun way to play. Everybody's sharing it, less pounding, less iso. We all know that at the end of the game, when the game slows down, there will be some pick and rolls and some isos. But in the course of the game we're trying to keep the pace up and it's been working for us. NBA.com
The reaction in the Mavericks' locker room was mixed about the play former teammate Dahntay Jones had against Kobe Bryant on Wednesday night. Jones, who was traded to Atlanta for Anthony Morrow last month, stepped under Bryant at the end of the Hawks' win. Bryant said it was a dangerous and dirty play. Jones said it was good defense. "It was a 50-50 play," said Brandan Wright. Added Darren Collison: "Tough play. That's all I can say about it." Dallas Morning News
As Collison laid on the floor writhing in pain, play continued and the Milwaukee Bucks scored. The Mavs subsequently called timeout, and Collison received some medical attention and stayed in the game after he got poked in his left eye. Some two hours later in the locker room -- after the Mavs defeated the Bucks, 115-108 -- Collison said: "I can barely see right now. They said it's going to be like that for awhile. "I tried to play through it, but when I was guarding Monta (Ellis) I saw two Monta's. One Monta is already a problem, but not two.'' Fort Worth Star-Telegram
The Mavericks will face tough decisions after this season with Collison and O.J. Mayo. In Collison's case, he's shooting better than ever with career-best percentages across the board. It's been an enlightening year for him on the court. And it wouldn't bother Collison a bit if he got a chance to do it again. While it will be up to management to make the ultimate decision for the free-agent-to-be, Collison feels like this is home. "I hope so," he said when asked if he wanted to stick around long term. "I love Dallas. I love the fans. The fans have been good to me, and the organization has been real good to me. Coach has worked with me and helped me be a better player every day. I haven't had that in a long time." Dallas Morning News
ben ... Three years from now is Darren Collison still starting at point guard for the Mavs? Eddie Sefko: Nope. I'm not even sure he's starting three games from now. If any of you believe the trade talk coming out of Mark Cuban, Rick Carlisle and Donnie Nelson, you don't know the decision-makers at the top of the organization. Anybody and everybody, save for Nowitzki and Brand, is available for the right price. But I don't blame the Mavericks a bit for playing hardball and demanding a hefty return for some of their best veterans. And if they don't get it, move along. Dallas Morning News
Hard coaching. It's something that fits Rick Carlisle better than his favorite sweatpants. When he had Jason Kidd and Jason Terry and the rest of a mostly veteran team, Carlisle didn't have to pull out the hard-coaching card very often. This season, it's different, with O.J. Mayo and Darren Collison as prime exhibits. "Me and O.J., we've had a lot of tough love from Coach," Collison said Wednesday. "He's been in our face since Day One. And it's all about learning. He just wants us to get better. Some coaches let young guards get their way. Rick is tough. But he's not tough to the point where you can't handle situations. "Then again, you got to have tough skin to play under a guy like Rick Carlisle. Most NBA players, they don't like to hear criticism. They don't like to hear the truth. But if you're trying to get better, that's what you got to hear." Dallas Morning News

Gene Michalski, president and CEO of Beaumont Health System and Nancy Schlichting, CEO of Henry Ford Health System applaud after announcing that the systems have signed a letter of intent to merge. / Kimberly P. Mitchell/Detroit Free Press
The planned merger of Henry Ford and Beaumont health systems into a single, $6.4-billion nonprofit entity -- a deal to combine 10 hospitals, 200 patient care sites and 41,000 employees -- would mean better patient care, a financially stable employer and even more research money and clinical trials, leaders from the hospital systems said Wednesday.
But the main reason behind the planned merger, at its heart, is simple economics: Combined, the two hospital systems would become more efficient and better positioned to face sweeping changes in health care reform, threatened budget cuts to Medicaid and Medicare, and an aging demographic that promises older, sicker patients as Medicare reimbursements shrink.
"I don't think it's any secret to anyone that there are rapid changes in the health care landscape today across the country, at the statewide level and, certainly, in southeast Michigan," said Gene Michalski, CEO of Royal Oak-based Beaumont. "There's a monumental shift from inpatient care to outpatient care that is in part spurred by health reform, but it's also enabled by technology. And there's a demand for greater value in health care today, that is to say higher quality and lower cost."
Hospital system leaders Wednesday said consumers and employees need not worry: Insurance coverage won't change, they'll have access to regular doctors, there won't be sweeping layoffs and no facilities will close, "certainly not in the short term," said Nancy Schlichting, CEO of Detroit-based Henry Ford.
• MERGER: Tom Walsh: Blockbuster hospital merger is all about survival
• CONSUMERS: What the merger means for consumers
But consumer advocates said they would need to see more details of the merger plan before buying into it.
And at least one hospital industry academic contacted by the Free Press said his research shows hospital system consolidations, which usually mean less competition, often result in higher prices and declining care for consumers over time.
"Unfortunately, the record isn't real positive," said Martin Gaynor, a professor of economics and health policy at Carnegie Mellon University and co-author of a report on hospital consolidations.
• EFFICIENCY: Larger hospital system could enjoy greater efficiency
• ADVOCATES: Consumer advocates react with caution
Not a surprise to observers
The announcement was "certainly big news," but not surprising to those who have watched the evolving health care landscape, said Brian Peters, executive vice president of the Michigan Health & Hospital Association.
He said patient costs -- prescription drugs that are given in the hospital setting, for example -- have grown faster than reimbursements from the federal government and commercial insurance, putting pressure on systems to forge partnerships.
"As we look at the landscape here in Michigan, over the last 30 years, there has been a very clear, accelerating trend toward integration, where small, independent hospitals have linked up with multi-hospital systems."
• LEADERS: Who will lead the new mega-hospital system?
Now, he said, Michigan's health care is on "the leading edge of system-to-system integration" that is already happening elsewhere in the U.S.
The deal is far from certain. Meetings that began more than a year ago grew more formal in April and continue this week to hash out details.
The letter of intent for the deal was signed Tuesday, but officials "anticipate a 120-day timetable to get to a tentative agreement," Michalski said.
The two CEOs said talks were friendly and that the deadline was soft.
They said it was still unclear who would run the new merged system. Schlichting said Wednesday she had been planning to retire in 2015, at Henry Ford's 100th anniversary, but the merger has caused her to reconsider.
At a morning news conference Wednesday, the two CEOs and other leaders from the systems sought to calm fears that the merger would mean layoffs, the closure of facilities or downsizing of affiliated medical schools.
Among details announced at the Wednesday news conference:
Ģ The new entity will be led by a single board with equal representation from the two systems. It's unclear who will lead the board.
Ģ The two organizations for now will continue to use their brand names. A name for the new entity, used to link the two brands, will be developed by the partnership.
Ģ Medical staffs will stay independent.
Ģ The two systems will collaborate on research efforts, hoping to strengthen the current ability to attract researchers and research funding and to conduct clinical trials.
The state might need to sign off on parts of the deal, depending on how it's structured.
The Michigan Department of Community Health, for example, reviews certificates of need, the approval process for everything from the number of beds in a hospital to the services it provides to the equipment it buys.
Additionally, the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs oversees the federal certification for hospitals on behalf of the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, which is responsible for dispersing Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements.
'A rare opportunity'
Schlichting called the merger a "rare opportunity in health care."
In addition to pending changes from health care reform, she and others noted the shifting focus on health care -- from treating the sick to keeping healthy people well.
The merger would not only blunt losses from possibly shrinking federal reimbursements, but it also would reduce costly competition between the two systems, the two CEOs said. Plus, a larger, single system would be better able to leverage the best deals on the supply side of the operations -- everything from equipment and medication purchases to service contracts, Schlichting said.
"Beaumont was shrewd to make this move early instead of later," said Mike Duggan, CEO of the Detroit Medical Center, the eight-hospital group bought two years ago by Vanguard Health Systems of Nashville, Tenn.
"It's a logical step," Duggan said. "The Affordable Care Act will require systems to develop skills to keep patients well, instead of recycling sick people. Paying hospitals to keep doing things to sick people is what's bankrupting the system."
Bret Jackson, president of the Economic Alliance of Michigan, a nonprofit business-labor coalition, said the merger will be positive "as long as southeast Michigan has a number of competitive hospitals and health systems."
"Health care purchasers will be looking to see if this merger leads to the consolidation of high-cost health care services, rather than the continuation of the medical arms race," he said.
Business writers John Gallagher and Katherine Yung contributed to this report.

Ukraine said today three soldiers had been killed, the first fatalities in several days in the war-torn east, as a shaky truce with pro-Russian rebels appeared to gain some traction with an apparent weapons pull-back.

I didn't mean passing chopstick to chopstick (I doubt I have that much skill to pull it off without dropping something ). I mean like giving something from your plate to another person (i.e mum passing something to children and vice versa. It's kinda normal with my family. Like my mum doesn't like raw fish so she gives it to me and I don't like spring onions so I give it to her by putting it on her plate and stuff )
It's more like something "part of your personal space" is not to be err.. for lack of better words, 'invaded' by others. Hence hugging and such is like err 'encroaching on your personal space'?

And the 15 minute thing doesn't apply to Miley because she has been big for years and shows no sign of fading anytime soon. She sells millions of CDs and boosts the ratings of every TV show she appears on. She is in the top 10 concert performers every year. She already has another film in the works. Miley Rules!

Italy priest says women bring domestic violence on themselves
Published on Dec 27, 2012 11:57 PM
ROME, (AFP) - A Catholic priest has sparked outrage in Italy by claiming that women bring domestic violence on themselves by dressing provocatively and neglecting housework, Italian media reported on Thursday.
"How often do we see girls and mature women going around scantily dressed and in provocative clothes?" Piero Corsi said in a Christmas message posted on the door of his church in the small town of San Terenzio in northwest Italy.
"They provoke the worst instincts, which end in violence or sexual abuse.
"They should search their consciences and ask: did we bring this on ourselves?" it read.

My Life in France
From Library Staff
A truly revealing glimpse at the woman who won our hearts, her history, her triumphs, and her loves.
Join the discussion on Aug. 11, 2015. Upon first arriving in France with her husband Paul in 1948, Child spoke no French and knew nothing about the country itself. But as she dove into French culture, her life changed forever.
Here is the captivating story of Julia Child's years in France, where she fell in love with French food and "found her true calling."
Here is the captivating story of Julia Child's years in France, where she fell in love with French food and found "her true calling." This will make you wish Julia was still alive and that you were friends with her.
Julia's husband Paul Child took the photographs for this wonderful memoir that is part love story and part search for identity fulfillment. Julia Child weaves a savory tale about her life with food and her love with her husband.
From the critics
Community Activity
Add a CommentThis is the book the Meryl Streep half of the Julie and Julia movie is based on, and it is a delight. It's a truly personal account of her marriage, her discovery of Food, the dawning realization of her calling, and the problems of the diplomatic life (her husband, Paul Child, worked for the American embassy in Paris). It's so easy to hear her voice as you read about her adventures in post-war France; she was an amazing woman. And don't get me started on the food she describes...
If you ever have the chance to go to Paris, and adore food, this is a must read before you go, or at least begin on the plane. But, if you've never been to Paris, but adore food, and know of Julia Child its still an exceptional read. It's one tablespoon a love story, a cup of adventure and a bowl full of passion. I'll take seconds.
Julia's husband Paul Child took the photographs for this wonderful memoir that is part love story and part search for identity fulfillment. Julia Child weaves a savory tale about her life with food and her love with her husband.
Originally checked out to read only the section(s) about French bread, but kept running into other interesting tidbits so ended up reading the whole book.
A little bit long on "we went here, and ate this food with this wine", but the sections about her culinary education are often delightful.
I really enjoyed this book and loved the description of the restaurants that she and Paul went to when they first arrived and how she, a self admitted non-cook in her late 30s, became a cook by diving into French culture by learning the language, the customs of buying food at a local market and by taking classes at the famed Le Cordon Bleu in Paris (which was also attended by the author of Kitchen Counter School) in the late 1940s. While I am not a cook myself (as you probably all know by know), I could really appreciate the chance that Julia took to learn to become an accomplished cook (she came across as the sort of person that has the expectations to become an accomplished cook; I think also the fact that she was trying to get to the same sort of level as Paul's mother had a large effect on her) and even though I probably will never get to the level of Julia herself (somehow we always compare ourselves to her), I think even taking the chance to cook or bake something is a step in the right direction.
I did appreciate her frankness about her frustration in writing the first cookbook and even though there was great success with the second one as well, she didn't bow into pressure into writing a third book. I also appreciate that the book felt personal, even though it was only a glance into her private life, and that not everything was perfect and how she worried about things just like we all worry about things and how concerns about what was going on in Paul's work in the 1950s was of equal concern for her and probably didn't make things any easier when living abroad in Europe, far away from family and friends in the States.
Also, I appreciated that she didn't constantly talk about food in the book and that you felt like you got to know Julia and her husband, albeit on a surface level, and the fun little facts that she passed along in the book (did you know that Judith Jones, the editor for Mastering Vol.1 & 2, was the person that got The Diary of Anne Frank into the hands of American readers in the 1950s, when it was just sitting on "the pile" of manuscripts that had been submitted to her while she was working for Random House in Paris?) that made the book enjoyable to read.
a wonderfuly and honest memoir; the voice is the voice i remember from television
OPL has DVD's of Julia's television programs
Having first seen the Movie Julie & Julia I enjoyed the book even though I knew some of the stories that were chosen for the book. For non-fiction it was a good read and the title explains the plot well. To learn about the process of writing her iconic cookbook was quite interesting.
An endearing romance, vivid depictions of life in Paris, and luscious descriptions of food and wine make this a marvelous story.

Jackson, a four-star DB committed to Florida, could be in the mix, as could Grant Haley - a three-star defender who is currently committed to Vanderbilt. Rumors swirl around that Vandy coach James Franklin is headed for the vacant Penn State job, which could in turn cause Haley to rethink his collegiate decision.

Cerenord - a three-star DT - took an unofficial visit to Winston-Salem over the summer, and left rather impressed. The Deacs had a shot at landing Cerenord, but after the recent coaching change - Jim Grobe out, Dave Clawson in - he has yet to hear from the new staff. He hasn't ruled Wake Forest out, but chances of him ending up in the Triad look slim. Miami appears to be his favorite.

A lot goes into creating a level playing field
When the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles battle in Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville, Fla., this Sunday, they will have the pleasure of chasing and pummeling each other on the most meticulously nurtured turf in the world.
Every day since it was installed, an all-star crew of 25 groundskeepers from the National Football League, Major League Baseball, and Japan has tended the field with as much care as a coterie of nurses gives an aristocratic infant in an incubator. The slightest discoloration has been patched with pregerminated rye grass and fertilizer.
"The Super Bowl sod is designed to be both durable and look good to the millions of people watching the game," says George Toma, the NFL's turf consultant.
That is another way of saying the league wants its Super Bowl field to look like the front lawn of one of Jacksonville's posh oceanside estates.
Since the inaugural Super Bowl in 1967, Mr. Toma has been the man behind ensuring that NFL's premier event is played on a field as green as a freshly minted dollar bill. The grass - a hybrid Bermuda grass sod overseeded with an exclusive bluegrass/ryegrass mix - started growing a year and a half ago in southern Georgia, Toma says, and is cultivated to be strong enough to stand up to the 60 minutes of wear and tear from NFL behemoths.
Last month, nearly 100,000 square feet of the pampered sod was delivered in refrigerated trucks to Jacksonville's Alltel Stadium.
"About 10 acres of the sod is grown and we use the best of the crop while the remaining sod is 'on the bench' if we need it," Toma says. The groundskeeping crew installed it in three days.
Although the NFL has its own financial arrangement with the grower, West Coast Turf, in Palm Springs, Calif., a company spokesperson says the retail value of the grass is about $100,000.
"To showcase a great field, you have to get good sod," says Toma, whom Sports Illustrated called the "Nitty Gritty Dirt Man" because of his magic touch in producing championship playing fields. "In the early days we seeded, but since Super Bowl III, we have used sod."
