What Plants Talk About
I was wondering if anyone besides myself has seen the program on PBS (the Nature series) by this name "What Plants Talk About?"
This show echoed what an earlier program on another channel had discussed of how plants appear to engage in thought and take actions despite the lack of a brain. In the earlier program, researchers investigated the mysterious death of a large number of deaths of giraffes. They traced this to tannin poisoning. The animals had been browsing on a type of thorny tree that formed part of their natural diet, whose leaves normally contained small, harmless amounts of tannin. However during a severe drought when no other vegetation was available, the trees apparently turned up the tannin supply to kill the giraffes and prevent being killed themselves by overgrazing. Plants/trees unable to move away to escape predation apparently can resort to other means of self-defense.
In the later program cited in this thread, all sorts of plant behaviors were examined. For instance plants of the same family, when planted in pots together, restricted their root growth so as to allow their relatives an equal measure of the available nutrients. Unrelated plants' roots after a time were intermeshed in attempts by each plant to seize as many nutrients as each could grab.
The researchers then mixed carbon based fertilizer with radioactive material and fed it to large trees in a forest. They returned a week later with a Geiger counter and discovered that the plant food had been distributed throughout the "mother trees" and distributed by them to their offspring, the largest proportion of the material going to the smallest and most vulnerable of their seedlings. It is remarkable to learn how the trees take care of their own, and revealing as to why transplanted seedlings do not do as well on their own in new surroundings. It makes me feel badly for the little "orphan" trees I have been planting in recent years as part of my reforestation effort.
Hi Sped - good post. Once I see the program, I'll be back.
Molie, and everyone else who may want to see it, you can - online. Link below should work.
Here is a link that might be useful: PBS: What Plants Talk About
Well, Sped, that was one of the best plant Nature programs! The other one that I recall was about seeds - equally as fascinating. For me, the subject is way too big to absorb and integrate into one's belief and knowledge systems, so I'll keep it at face value and digest it all slowly. I have every confidence that with your love of all-things-green, your 'orphan' trees will become strong mothers.
Thanks so much for bringing this to our attention. Glad I was able to see it.
spedigrees: I hadn't seen the program so I just watched it. It opens up a lot of issues, some of which I've thought about and some I hadn't.
If plants are aware of each other, it may matter which plants are brought together in a community (such as your garden).
Do some plants like certain plant species and dislike others?
Is it better to plant more than one of a certain species (besides the esthetics) to provide a social group? This would relate to your orphan trees which would find a new family.
Is a single specimen tree lonely?
And if plants, and trees in particular, are intelligent, what is our role as gardeners in "managing" them. Are we stewards? How do we justify controlling the lives of intelligent beings? Do we need to determine humane ways of meddling in their lives as we do for animals we farm?
Not easy questions, thanks for raising the issue.
Interesting questions Claire. I've been pondering the same questions myself.
I think one cannot create an artificial family of trees unless you were to plant trees that were all seedlings of a single parent tree, because unrelated trees of the same species do not recognize one another as kin.
I read somewhere that maples create an unfriendly environment for certain types of other trees and plants, and certainly Norway maples are known to be hostile and invasive to other species. So some trees seemingly make life difficult for other species. I had that somewhat in mind when planting maples on the north side of the property. I planted birch in the same area, as one very often sees birch and maple growing together in apparent harmony. But I've planted no other species there.
On the south side I planted one area in evergreens (pine and spruce) and a lower area in apples and crabapples. The latter area has the most likelihood of becoming a true family group soonest because of the apples dropped from an existing mature wild apple tree. The 4 nursery-bought crabapples are thriving there, so probably if conditions are right for one type of apple, every apple planted there will thrive. That spot gets more moisture than other areas that are better drained, and I've found that apple trees will thrive in very wet areas that would drown other tree species.
Then again, in the "wild" woods up on my hillside, all manner of tree species have sprung up and are seemingly coexisting, although who knows what underground root battles, or at least competitions, are taking place. There seem to be enough nutrients for everyone up there, and also all of these young trees are the progeny of parent trees growing further up the hill in the old forest to the other side of our property.
Because I leave the 3 newly (artificially) reforested areas unmowed, the trees within will eventually start to produce their own offspring, but that is a long time in the future, probably long after we are gone. I try not to think about what atrocities a new owner may someday visit upon our trees and land.
The question of a lonely single tree also has occurred to me. My most beloved tree is this lovely flowering crabapple in my front yard in the photo. It's a 'profusion' variety, a semi-weeping tree with gorgeous blossoms in the spring. It's really come into its own from the tiny twig I planed over a decade ago. And yet the poor thing keeps trying to procreate, sending up tiny shoots that are necessarily cut down with each mowing of the lawn around it.
Interesting discussion that has made us see our trees in a new light.
It's a fascinating book! I'm looking forward to seeing the PBS show when I have the time to sit still for an hour or so, so thanks, Sped.
This reminds me of a plant in my garden, Lychnis viscaria (aka German catchfly) that, I once read, produces a compound in the soil that actually benefits other plants. I've always wondered why it would be useful for any perennial to encourage other plants. I have a guess, but I'd really like a better answer - I'm thinking that maybe it has to do with catchfly growing in sandy, barren areas, where having other, maybe more robust, plants would help keep the soil in place. Just a guess - maybe the PBS show will answer this for me.
This is an interesting concept to bring to light. Despite the fact that it's 1130, I plan to watch some of What Plants Talk About before I fall asleep.
Most plants that invigorate the soil with oils or acids (families on the top of my mind are asters and mints) should be classified this way too, with the way that the chemicals repel pests. The idea that plants logically or consciously compete and align via chemical warfare is not farfetched and makes companion planting seem analogous to human culture.
Now to watch this video..

Went to Bass Pro shop at Great Lakes Crossing today, on the way in a sign that said that all firearms must be in a case. I figured: My holster is like a case. So in I go.
Does anyone know if this is intended to prevent CC, or just keep poeple from walking in with a gun in hand to the range. I'm guessing the latter, but does anyone know?
Also, I didn't go into the rest of the mall, but has anyone noticed if the whole mall is posted or not?

Fabulous Crusty Italian Loaf
Total Time
3 hrsCook
40 mins'Pane Crostoso'--The Best sandwich bread. Delicious and surprisingly easy to make; just like the crusty loaves that you would purchase at your favorite Italian bakery (in my opinion). Adapted from "Cucina di Calabria" a cookbook of Calabrian recipes by Mary Amabile Palmer. This is also great with pasta (for dipping in the sauce!) or the second day as bruschetta or crostini. For bread machine, simply use machine to mix the dough and bring it through its first rise, then follow instructions for shaping loaves. Variation for making rolls follows at end of recipe. Preparation time includes rise time.
Nutrition- 1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast or 2 1⁄2 teaspoons yeast
- 1 1⁄4 cups warm water (test as with a baby's bottle)
- 3 cups unbleached flour or 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- cornmeal
- 1 egg yolk
- In a small bowl, dissolve yeast with a quarter cup of the lukewarm water. Pour yeast into a large bowl. Mix in flour, sugar, salt, and remaining lukewarm water and mix in until dough starts to form. If too sticky, add a bit more flour.
- Turn out onto flat surface and knead for 6-8 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Put dough into an oiled bowl, turn to coat, cover with a thick towel, and let rise in a warm place, free from draft, until doubled in size, or about 1.5-2 hours.
- For bread machine, just use to mix and do the first rising of the dough, then remove to shape into loaves and do second rise, following instructions below.
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Remove dough onto a floured surface. Punch down and shape into 2 oblong loaves about a foot long each. If you own a baking stone or unglazed ceramic tiles, dust lightly with cornmeal and put into preheated oven. Put loaves on a peel (large wooden spatula), also lightly dusted with cornmeal, or on a cookie sheet sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover and let rise again for 40 minutes. Loaves will about double in width.
- In a small dish, add egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water. Slit tops of risen bread 3 or 4 times, making slits that are a quarter of an inch deep. With a brush, paint tops with egg wash. If on a peel, slide loaves onto stone or tile; otherwise put cookie sheet in oven.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 425°F Then lower heat to 400F and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes, until golden and baked through. To check if it's done, thump the bottom of each loaf; if it sounds hollow, it's done.
- Note: Although the original recipe has you bake it at a higher temperature for the first 10 minutes and then lower the temperature, I was able to bake it continuously at 400F for 40 minutes total and mine turned out perfectly. I am including both here so that you can decide, depending on your oven.
- Don't wait to let it cool; eat it when it's hot! Delicious!
- Tip: For crustier bread, put a shallow baking pan filled with boiling hot water on bottom shelf of oven.
- Variation: To make rolls, preheat oven to 400°F After dough rises, remove to a floured surface. Punch down dough and shape into 12-14 rolls. Place on cookie sheet sprinkled with cornmeal. Let rise for 20 minutes. Slit each roll once and paint tops with egg wash. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden and baked through.

When you think of the working cogs in the creation of a Hollywood movie, your mind inevitably jumps to the big guns, the spotlit actors, esteemed directors, writers, producers, and then a long assortment of crew members — costume designers, the lighting department, stuntmen, stage, art, sound, all the way down to the guy who slams the clapperboard. But there is one component of any movie's production that we are not likely to consider who may be the keystone to the whole industry: craft services.
The everpresent, but underappreciated men and women of the "crafty" world drive one of the most essential elements of any film set — people gotta eat — and jump more hurdles than you might think to do so. According to longtime fixtures of the crafty business like Eat Catering's Danielle Wilson and Joe Facey of Joe's Craft Services, both based in New York, there is a lot more to the field than people think.
Sure, the job may have started out "basically like a stagehand," as Facey puts it. But "it has changed a lot [since he] first started." Facey says, "The term 'craft services' refers to 'servicing the craftsman.' It used to be the guy on the stage who would sweep the stage down, put out some donuts and coffee, and if somebody needed something from the store, you'd go get it for them." These days, however are long gone — the position has evolved to something far more than a glorified gofer.
Today, when you're a craft service worker, you're taking on a slew of other jobs as well:
An obvious element of the food service industry is nutrition, but some figures in the crafty world pay more attention to the idea than others. "I try to keep it super healthy," says Wilson, an experienced chef who worked in restaurants and corporate catering before getting onto craft service in 1999. "My table, I try to keep at least 60% or 70% whole foods or organic foods or healthy foods. There's always going to be people on the job who just want their chips or their candy, but I try to keep it pretty minimal. I try to keep a bigger selection out there."
Wilson is "more intro nutrition" than some of her contemporaries, who might "just throw out Oreos or Ho-Hos on the table." Wilson's goal isn't just to keep people fed, but also "sustain[ing] energy throughout the day with food choices, making sure we have six or eight little hot meals or little hot choices throughout the day, in addition to healthy platters. So it'll be sustained energy, instead of a sugar crash."

Security Guard
"You have tons of big name actors, and hundreds of people with their cameras," Wilson says. "We have to put up screens to get them away from us, so that we can actually start the filming day, or we'd get nothing done." Sometimes, however, a screen is not enough. And it's not even the actors that people are after...
"Being in New York, the biggest thing that drives me nuts is people who aren't even affiliated with the film who come by and try to steal and take your craft services," Wilson says. "We have to defend the table. I've worked in L.A., too. And I've worked in Connecticut. All around. But in New York, it's the worst. People seem to think they are entitled to stealing or taking your craft services. You constantly have to defend and get the people off the table."
Wilson continues: "People steal! It's amazing ... You get people with Louis Vitton, driving Mercedes, that act like since you're there, you're serving the whole town. Which is crazy." She says, "I have treasure chests, or big glass jars full of raw nuts, or something like that. I see them trying to take the whole thing. You're like, 'What are you doing?' There's many times I don't go to lunch, if we have a lot of background or we're in a location."
And that's hardly even the worst of it: "I've had random people — like in Chinatown, guy in a suit came up to pee on my tent. Broad daylight, at 8 AM, where there's tons of people. I had to hose down the side of my tent with hot water. A human being peed on my tent. For no reason whatsoever.
But even in the presence of healthy foods, crews can endure their share of aches and pains. "Then there are things like, someone gets a headache," Facey says. "Or they have an upset stomach because they ate something wrong the day before. So you want to carry Pepto Bismol, and Aspirin, and things like that."
And along with internal maladies, you also come across external injuries: "You want to make sure you have ice, in case someone hurts themselves," Facey says. "Sometimes, you have a set medic on set, sometimes you don't. But they don't carry ice. They carry icepacks, but what you need is a real bag of ice." And it's not only the cast and crew that suffers such fates, but the craft services folk themselves...
"People seem to think it's an easy job, but ... it's very physical," Wilson says. "I've been hurt many times ... Both my knees have been injured, both my ankles have been injured. I literally just got out of a walking boot cast — I sprained my foot." It's vexing to wonder what aspects of the craft services job throw their workers into this kind of danger. "You have to move around quickly, heavy stuff needs to be lifted, lots of movement. Sometimes you have to change locations up to five times a day, depending on your shooting schedule.
Local Business Patron
Wilson "like[s] to work with the community" in which her project is shooting, throwing a bone to local restaurants in return for the production's occupation of their neighborhoods. "if I can buy local, I'll buy local. A lot of times, if we're in the neighborhood and taking up a lot of the parking, I'll go to one of the neighborhood restaurants and order a couple of hundred dollars of food — hot food to put on the table." While Wilson "could easily cook it," she's in the mindset that you "want to make sure you're aware of your surroundings," so that you can give back.
She recalls a recent shoot that took place in Schenectady, N.Y.: the upcomong Ryan Gosling drama, The Place Beyond the Pines. "That was a fun one ... I'm really big on dealing with the farmer's market. I wound up meeting all the farmers." This sensibility has earned her a handful of symbiotic relationships over the years. "I would tell them, 'Listen, let's do a deal. If I come here right before it closes at two, any of your leftover produce I'll buy off you for half price.'"
It's not only Wilson and the markets that benefit from this, but the production crews: "I got to meet a lot of local farmers, got a lot of local harvests, and got to use it on the show. Everybody was happy, because we got to do a lot of corn relishes, we made jams. It was great. At the same time, it was kind of fun — like a camping experience, because we were upstate."
RELATED: How Movie Trailers Are Made
In addition to providing pleasure and comfort through food, Facey goes the extra mile, stimulating every sense he can. "My whole idea is to make the experience of visiting the table enjoyable," Facey says.
He plays the librarian: "I, myself, do a magazine rack. It has magazines in it. So if you've got some free time to kill, and you're bored, you grab a magazine or look at a newspaper."
He plays the DJ: "I play music all day. As long as I'm not close enough to the set so that you can hear it, from the moment I open my truck to the moment I leave, I play music at the table all day ... I play some jazz. Nothing really radical. Sometimes, something more upbeat. There are days when I barbecue, and I'll play something upbeat — I like to have something upbeat while I'm cooking."
He plays the toy store: "I've had jobs where we've had a lot of kids. I did three seasons of a TV series, Pete and Pete on Nickelodeon. And I did the movie Scent of a Woman, where we had 600 boys. And on other days, we had 30 or 40, where we just had to show kids walking around on campus. And when they're not eating, and they're waiting in what we call a holding area for the next scene, how do you keep them occupied? And keep them from being bored? I'll bring in a bunch of board games. I'll lay them out in the holding area to keep them busy."
Parent, Therapist, and Captain All In One
Facey and Wilson agree: a film crew is like one big family. Or at least "a cross between a family and a military unit," according to Facey. "You might even say they're like a bunch of guys on a ship. You're stuck together, and you have to learn to get along, and deal with stuff."
"You go through ups and downs. If you're stuck in an 18-and-a-half-hour day, you're exhausted, you have to keep feeding [everybody]," Wilson says. "Everyone's cranky. Just like you would be if you were stuck with your family for 18 hours, at Thanksgiving or something."
Wilson explains that because of these tight relationships, she keeps a good memory of her colleagues' dietary preferences, which always surprises them. "[They'll ask,] 'How did you know I still like Nestlé Quik?' Or, 'How did you know I'm still lactose intolerant?'," Wilson says. "When you work with each other day in and day out for four to six weeks, or possibly eight weeks… it's like if you had a brother that's allergic to nuts."
All in all, Wilson considers a film set like a home, and her station the heart and soul: "A lot of producers come [to the craft services table] to talk about what's going on. Fights take place — verbal fights take place. There's a lot of stuff that happens. Just like at home, with the kitchen. The heart of the house is the kitchen, where people have discussions, and you argue, sometimes it's great…"
Sage Advisor
When asked to supply words of wisdom for any youngsters hoping to get into the craft services business, Facey had a very specific piece of advice: "I know for sure, now, that if you're passing out Italian ices to people in the summer — because it's really hot — that you don't want to let the actors have any cherry." Why, you ask?
"They can only have lemon," Facey says. "I worked on the movie Men In Black, and Tommy Lee Jones took an Italian ice. It was a cherry flavored one, and he ate the whole thing right before he was supposed to do a scene — and his lips were bright red. Which didn't make Barry Sonnenfeld very happy."
He continues: "He saw Tommy's lips and just started screaming, 'Where's Joe?! Where is he? Find him now!' And it was funny, because I was actually right behind him with the tray of ices. I said, 'Barry, I'm right here,' and he turned around, and he went, '…Maybe you shouldn't feed the actors so much.' That was kind of funny. You learn those kinds of things."
So the next time you think of craft services, don't stop at images of 6-feet buffet tables topped with muffins and bottled water. Think of Wilson and Facey — their work keeping their crews healthy, happy, entertained, protected, and free of embarrassing red lips.
And none of these are easy jobs. Actors love cherry.

The wife and I went shopping for a CHL gun for her yesterday and after trying every gun in the case for fit she asked to see the XD 9mm sub-compact and fell in love with it on the spot. We went to the range today to put some rounds down range and I was blown away with the out of the box accuracy the XD has. 2" groups at 3 and 7 yards and about a 4" group at 12 yards. I am sure she will get better at the 12 yard with more practice. The only draw back to the XD I can see is I may have to retire my Glock and get a XD for myself, lol.

The debate over God's existence heats up next week as leading physicist and atheist Sean Carroll is pitted against William Lane Craig, a top theologian and philosopher, to discuss their views about philosophy, cosmology, and the role of God and the cosmos.
The two experts will debate on Feb. 21 under the theme "God and Cosmology: The Existence of God in Light of Modern Cosmology." Organizers announced Wednesday that the event will be held at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary as part of a Greer-Heard Point-Counterpoint Forum in Faith and Culture Weekend Conference. Modern cosmology is dominated by the Big Bang theory, which attempts to bring together observational astronomy and particle physics.
"Though Carroll is as fiercely anti-theistic as other cosmologists I have debated, he differs in being philosophically informed and civil in demeanor," Craig wrote in a statement about the event. more >>
LAKE FOREST, Calif. – Pastor Rick Warren encouraged hundreds of local Southern California pastors and ministry leaders attending a pre-release screening of "Son of God" at Saddleback Church Tuesday to use a six-week study the best-selling author created using scenes from the movie.
The "Son of God – The Life of Jesus in You" series (LifeWay publishers) will launch at Saddleback to coincide with the movie's release. Producers Roma Downey and Mark Burnett, who were at the special screening, had asked Warren to create the book study with their movie as a tool.
"This is an incredible opportunity to double the size and number of your small [Bible/book study] groups," said Warren after the screening. He explained that the first time he used a movie to launch a series to be used in small groups was with "The Passion of the Christ." Warren said he offered content that was not available anywhere else, and while members of small groups were first attracted to attend by the nature of the content, they stayed in the study groups because of the formed relationships. more >>
UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. – Faith, family values, and quality entertainment took center stage at the 22nd Annual Movieguide Awards on Friday evening. Celebrities and lesser-known movie, TV, and music industry people shared their appreciation for being able to celebrate the things in life they cherish most.
Joni Eareckson Tada, who was there to perform the title song from "Alone Yet Not Alone," told The Christian Post that although she was out of her element at the splashy event because she is primarily a Christian disabilities advocate, she said she was appreciative of Movieguide and its goals.
"I think we are at a point in our country where people are becoming weary, they're becoming tired of media messages, and movies that degrade the human spirit, that defame the human heart, that weigh people down, that reinforce hopelessness and despair, people are looking for a change from that," Tada explained while participating in the red carpet portion of the evening. "I think that the popularity of the song and its Oscar nomination has underscored that people are looking for a change. more >>
The producers of the hit television miniseries "The Bible" have stated that their new film "Son of God" is meant to be a "love story" for an "under-served" audience.
"By the time you get to His arrest in Gethsemane, you really feel that you know Him and you love Him. And you really feel awful that this could be happening," said Mark Burnett, co-producer of "Son of God."
"Within that sweeping drama and tension there was this intimacy of this love story of Jesus," added Burnett, who hoped viewers of the film "fall in love with Jesus." more >>
Religious liberty advocates have applauded the recent remarks of President Barack Obama regarding the plight of Christians overseas.
At the 62nd annual National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., President Obama spoke about religious intolerance abroad and mentioned figures such as imprisoned Iranian-American pastor Saeed Abedini.
"We pray for Pastor Saeed Abedini. He's been held in Iran for more than 18 months, sentenced to eight years in prison on charges relating to his Christian beliefs," said Obama. more >>
Although Oscar may not want it, the title song for "Alone Yet Not Alone" will be heard by guests at the 22nd Annual Movieguide Awards gala, celebrating faith and values-based entertainment at the Universal Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles Friday evening.
Organizers of the event plan to feature inspirational Christian speaker and quadriplegic Joni Eareckson Tada singing "Alone Yet Not Alone," the song that the Academy first nominated for best song then revoked two weeks later. One of the song's co-writers, Bruce Broughton, was accused of improperly emailing Oscar voters, bringing the song to their attention.
"Many people are saying it was removed because it's Christian and that's not the case because you have the movie 'Frozen' that opens up with 'Fairest, Lord Jesus,' right at the beginning in Danish," Dr. Ted Baehr, co-founder and chairman of Movieguide, told The Christian Post Thursday. He said that although many people don't speak Danish, "you can immediately recognize" the Christian hymn. more >>

Bus driver's bid to avoid hitting a stationary truck caused the accident
A total of 25 people were injured, with one person in a critical condition, as a bus, container lorry and truck containing chickens collided in the wee hours of Sunday morning near the Chetty Nagar Bus stop on the East Coast Road.
The driver of the container lorry has been admitted at the Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research for treatment with head injuries and a fractured femur.
He is now under observation and under the care of a neurosurgeon with a 'Low Glasgow Coma Scale' coma, an official from JIPMER told TheHindu.
There were 24 injured on the bus, including the driver and the conductor, and they were rushed to a nearby private hospital in Puducherry to seek treatment. According to an official from the hospital, 17 men, six women and two children were injured. Of the total, 13 persons suffered from fractures, seven had minor injuries and four were discharged with some minor treatment, the official said.
The driver of the bus had sustained fractures to the radius, but there was no head injury. None of the victims in the private hospital was in critical condition, the official said.
According to the Marakkanam Police, the accident took place at 5 a.m. when the bus collided head-on with the container lorry while trying to avoid the chicken-laden lorry that was stopped on the side of the road on the Puducherry-Chennai highway.
At 4.45 a.m., the truck containing chickens had a puncture and had stopped on the side of the road. At 5 a.m., the Periyar Transport bus swerved to the right on seeing the chicken truck. It scraped the side of the truck and collided with the lorry which was heading towards Puducherry. The bus had been over-speeding.
All three vehicles had been totally damaged, the police said.

If there is an expert that deals in performance enhancing drugs that could provide valuable advice and insight to the sport of mixed martial arts, UFC President Dana White said emphatically on Thursday that's it's not former BALCO head Victor Conte. read news >>
Former doping specialist turned anti-doping crusader Victor Conte has a potentially sobering view of mixed martial arts. During a recent appearance on UFC broadcaster Joe Rogan's popular podcast, "The Joe Rogan Experience," Conte said he estimates around half of all current MMA fighters are using some type of performance-enhancing drug. "From total of all performance-enhancing drugs, it's in the neighborhood of 50 percent," Conte told Rogan. read news >>

Law Professor Appointed to NCAA Governing Council
Brian Shannon will begin his new duties at the January 2015 NCAA Convention.
The NCAA Division I Board of Directors on Tuesday approved the appointment of Brian Shannon, the Charles B. "Tex" Thornton Professor of Law at Texas Tech University School of Law, to serve on the new NCAA Division I Council.
The Division I Council is a part of the recently completed overhaul of the NCAA's governance structure. The Council will have primary responsibility for Division I legislation, developing and recommending policies to the Board of Directors and supervising and acting on a wide array of issues, including NCAA championships.
"I am pleased and honored to have the opportunity to serve on the new Council," Shannon said. "The NCAA and its member institutions have a strong historical commitment to the collegiate model. This means as future policy is developed, we must recognize and embrace our student-athletes' opportunities to develop fully not only on the field or court, but also in the classroom and in their pursuit of a college degree; not only as superb athletes, but also as well-rounded students fully integrated into the full range of campus life; and not only for their efforts as members of a collegiate athletic team, but also for their future contributions as citizens."
The new Council is composed of 40 members, including a representative from each of the 32 conferences within NCAA Division I, four conference commissioners, two student-athletes and two faculty athletics representatives.

Julia Roberts in Ryan Murphy's Eat Pray Love
Sylvester Stallone's THE EXPENDABLES Opens with $35m. A Hit?: Box Office
At no. 2, the Julia Roberts-Javier Bardem romance Eat Pray Love, which received about as many negative reviews as Sylvester Stallone's The Expendables, brought in $23.7 million at 3,082 venues, for a good but hardly exceptional $7,690 per-theater average according to studio estimates found at Box Office Mojo.
Much like The Expendables, Eat Pray Love opened at the lower end of expectations, following an estimated 4.1 percent drop on Saturday and another 13.5 percent drop on Sunday. (For comparison's sake: The Expendables tumbled 11 percent on Saturday and 17 percent on Sunday.)
Generally speaking, movies that don't go up on their first Saturday tend to have briefer runs than those that do, as that's a sign the buzz isn't all that strong. (There are exceptions, of course, e.g., Despicable Me.)
The longevity of the Ryan Murphy-directed, $60m production set in Italy, India, and Indonesia will become clearer next weekend, when Eat Pray Love's drop-off rate is announced.
The no. 3 movie this weekend was last weekend's no. 1, the Adam McKay-directed Mark Wahlberg-Will Ferrell action-comedy The Other Guys, which drew $18 million – down 49 percent (not great; not terrible) from a week ago. Total after ten days: $70.54m. Cost: $100m.
There's no chance The Other Guys will be able to recover its production costs at the U.S. and Canada box office (after exhibitors take their 45%-50 percent cut).
Another 50 percent or so drop next weekend, and the Wahlberg-Ferrell flick will be collecting less than $10m.
But there's always the foreign market and ancillary venues.

Imagine a holiday out with your girlfriends and no man around whom you have to compromise your preferences for, or a man who would drag you into his boring macho activities! This would be a dream come true! Girls love to be together because we share the same ideas of fun. When traveling with your spouse, you have to compromise a lot, such that, at times after a visit to one of the best places in the world, you leave with an anti-climax, a feeling that you have not fully absorbed the attractions of the place. You could be touring the beautiful beaches of Turkey and the man is all about swimming, surfing, and all kinds of water sports and at the end of the day, you do not have time enough to lay on the warm sand and enjoy the sun, which is what you would enjoy above all that other men stuff!
If you feel me, you should gather a few of your friends, who love traveling, and plan for one "ladies exclusive" trip. There are destinations around the globe that are more attuned for girls than others are. This is due to the state of security, amenities available, infrastructure, and the fun activities available. Below are some of the best girl trip destinations around the world.
Bali, Indonesia
If you and your girlfriends want to have a taste of Asia, Bali is a good place to visit. Bali is on an island that has very good weather all year round. The waters of the ocean are always warmed by the tropical sun and the landscape is extraordinarily beautiful. In the evenings, one is able to capture the beautiful sunset that decorates the sky. The area has good infrastructure, which has been specifically developed for the purpose of ensuring that visitors who come here have an easy time moving around to get to the attraction sites.
Bali is a good traveling destination for girls as it is a very safe place. The people of Bali are very friendly and the crime rate is low, especially gender related crime. Here, there are no strict religious or customary laws that would restrict the woman in any way. Here you can dress in any way without fear of repercussions from the locals. You can have leisurely walks around the place at any time, including a walk around the place under the moon on a warm tropical Bali night.
Tourist activities around the place are not expensive. There are several affordable exclusive surf and spa retreats that you could visit in Bali, there are many shopping malls, wonderful restaurants with tantalizing delicacies, and several religious Buddhist and Hindu temples that one could visit.
In Europe, Amsterdam is one of the best girl trip destinations in the world. It is very safe and it has all that a girl might want for a holiday. The water canals are a place you will always remember once you visit. You and your girls will definitely love the floating flower shops and a tour around the canals is great fun. The streets are also a marvel with their many dainty gift shops and massive shopping malls. There are several museums that one could visit including the great Van Gogh Museum.
The Van Gogh museum has around 200 paintings and five hundred drawings. There are many ancient letters archived here too. Most of the other museums in Amsterdam are clustered in Plantage district. Here you will find the Scheepvaart Museum, the Jewish Historical Museum, and the Tropical Museum. In Plantage you can also visit the Artis Zoo.
In Amsterdam there are lots of custom foods that visitors can savor. A visit to one of the many awesome restaurants will give you a wide array of delicacies from which to choose. Beer lovers can have a taste of many brands including the famous Heineken.
The Canary Islands
The Canary Islands are a fabulous place to visit with your friends. This is one of the best travel destinations in the world with the weather conditions allowing for year round activities. The warm weather allows people to come all over the world to enjoy activities such as fishing, water sports, swimming, lounging on the warm beaches, bird watching, and visiting many of the inland attraction sites. There are several major resorts in the area that provide incomparable entertainment and food.
When in the Canary Islands, make sure you visit Loro Parque. This loosely translates to Parrot Pak and it was thus named for the numerous parrots in the park amongst lots of other wildlife. When in the park you have the chance of enjoying an entertaining animal show, which could be a dolphin, seal, chimpanzee, or parrot show. Other animals that you can see in the park include jaguars, sharks, flamingoes, alligators, tigers, gorillas, amongst others.
For the best experience of the beach and sea, Greece is the place to visit. The Greek islands of Santorin, Mykonos, Crete, Rhodes, and Kos will provide all the fun you need as you bask in the rolling beaches or take a dive in the warm waters. There are many resorts here where you can get all the entertainment you need. You could also enjoy walks within the ancient streets and admire the beautiful cultural architecture of the historic Greece.

You heard a knock at your door and you blushed. You answered the door with a smile. Death the Kid was standing there, smiling sweetly. He suddenly frowned and tidied your fringe. You giggled as he folded his arms and inspected you carefully. You just let him do it ... you didn't want to ruin the one day you had Kid all to yourself. But when he poked your breasts you decided enough was enough
"A-are you ready to go? Because I am" You said, smiling
He nodded and gave a smile, indicating that he was done with his somewhat creepy inspection. You had made sure that your outfit was symmetrical, just so he wouldn't freak out during your date ... he asked you out a little while ago, but the two of you could never find a day that suited both of you, until this day ... you couldn't believe it was actually happening! You had been in love with him for a long time ... and you very rarely got this close to him without Black Star prying you two apart again or completely ruining the moment. You had almost kissed Kid several times, but each time, Black Star came and stopped you ... it was like he was on a mission to stop you and Kid being together. You were just praying that Black Star would stay away today ... this day was important to you
"So ... where should we go?" You asked
"I booked us a table at a restaurant not far from here ..." He said, leading you away
You happily walked with him and you blushed. He had actually planned something romantic ... this certainly wasn't what you were expecting. Suddenly, he began to hum "Greensleeves" and you felt a blush rise to your cheeks. He seemed to notice this and looked at you, full of concern
"Is ... something wrong?" He asked
"N-no, I'm fine" You breathed, a little embarrassed
He eyed you suspiciously with those golden yellow eyes of his and smiled
"Alright ... if you ever feel uncomfortable with anything, just let me know" He said
-Several Hours Later-
You were heading home, hand in hand with Kid. You had just had the most romantic dinner with him at the most expensive restaurant in Death City
"Oh, Kid ... tonight was wonderful" You said as you stood on your porch
"Maybe ... we can get together again sometime" He said, smiling
"I'd like that" You said, fidgeting
He held you close ... and kissed you, sending a shiver up your spine
"I love you" He said, blushing
You stared at him, scarcely believing he was saying it. You smiled and hugged him tightly, kissing him. He let out a muffled yelp and after a while, kissed back. It was absolute bliss ... your first kiss ... was with Lord Death's son ... and for once, Black Star or Soul weren't there to ruin it. You could enjoy your first kiss in peace ... you broke away, both of you going dark red
"I love you, too ..." You said as he played with your hair
He smiled and freed you from his hug and you did the same
"So ... I'll see you around?" He said
"Yeah ..." You breathed
"Just one last thing ... could you go to your bedroom window, you know the one with the balcony? I want to do one last thing for you" He said
You giggled and obeyed. You stood on the balcony, smiling
"Ok, what now?" You asked
He began to sing, which shocked you. You blushed and began to giggle. You never expected someone like him to serenade you ...
"Alas my love you do me wrong ... To cast me off discourteously; And I have loved you oh so long. Delighting in your company" He sang
You smiled
"Oh, Kid ..." You breathed, placing your hand over your racing heart
"Greensleeves was my delight, Greensleeves my heart of gold ... Greensleeves was my heart of joy ... And who but my Lady Greensleeves" He sang
Suddenly, Black Star jumped out of the bushes
"YAHOO!" He cried
"You idiot! That was supposed to be flawless!" Kid shouted
"Whatever, it was way too mushy for my tastes" Black Star said smugly
"You ruined it, you Bastard!" Kid said, with a look of death in his eye
"Uh-oh!" Black Star squeaked, running off
"GET BACK HERE!" Kid shouted, chasing after him
You giggled as you watched the one you loved go
"Oh, Kid ..." You mumbled, blushing
The End

Yemen is facing political collapse following the mass resignations of President Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi, his prime minister and entire cabinet. Thursday's exodus came just hours after Shia Houthi rebels stormed the presidential compound in the capital city of Sana'a. Hadi said he could not continue in office after Houthis allegedly broke a peace deal to retreat from key positions in return for increased political power. The Houthis...January 23, 2015 | Story
As the world focuses on the threat posed by al-Qaeda in Yemen, the Yemeni government is on the verge of collapse. A dispute between Shia Houthi rebels and the government of President Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi has sparked the capital Sana'a's worst violence in months. Houthi fighters have reportedly entered Yemen's presidential palace in a possible coup attempt. This comes days after fighters abducted the president's chief...January 20, 2015 | Story
Fox News has apologized for broadcasting false information about Muslims in the wake of the Paris attacks. Last weekend, self-described terrorism expert Steve Emerson claimed on air that parts of Europe, including the entire English city of Birmingham, were totally Muslim areas where non-Muslims do not go.

The gunmen who attacked Charlie Hebdo staff, Chérif and Said Kouachi, were killed by French police on Friday following a three-day manhunt. Shortly before his death, Chérif Kouachi told a French television station he received financing from the late Islamic cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who was killed by a U.S. drone in Yemen in 2011. Both brothers reportedly traveled to Yemen that same year and had weapons training in the deserts of Marib, an...January 12, 2015 | Story
A new report finds U.S. drone strikes kill 28 unidentified people for every intended target. While the Obama administration has claimed its drone strikes are precise, the group Reprieve found that strikes targeting 41 people in Yemen and Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 other, unnamed people. In its attempts to kill al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri alone, the CIA killed 76 children and 29 adults; al-Zawahiri remains alive. We are joined...December 03, 2014 | Story

There has been yet another violent attack with mass casualties. This was not the act of a lone gunman, or of an armed student rampaging through a school. It was a group of families en route to a wedding that was killed.
The United States was reportedly able to target an alleged al-Qaeda operative named Adnan al-Qadhi for a drone strike after U.S. allies in Yemen convinced an eight-year-old boy to place a tracking chip in the pocket of the man he considered to be his surrogate father. Shortly after the child planted the device, a U.S. drone tracked and killed al-Qadhi with a missile. He was killed last November, less than 24 hours after President Barack...August 16, 2013 | Story

Why AMD, Nvidia and Seagate Will Benefit From a PC Shipment Rebound
With Nvidia's new Tegra K1 chip powering Google's (GOOGL) Project Tango tablet, the stock should experience a steady upward climb, especially if Gartner's numbers prove to be conservative.
AMD should benefit for some of the same reasons. AMD stock is down almost 50% in the past two years. But new management has transitioned the company away from being a pure-play PC shop to a strong player in video game chip technology.
The transition is going to take time. But with a stabilized PC environment, AMD, which is the No. 2 chip company behind Intel (INTC), should begin to see top-line growth in its PC business as early as the next quarter. Assuming that management can execute its gaming strategy, while (at the same time) growing its PC segment, AMD will accelerate the timeframe of turning cash flow positive.
What's good for chip companies is also good for storage companies like Seagate (STX - Get Report), which has avoided a complete collapse of the hard disk market. All of the big talks about Big Data has done little of rattle Seagate's strong fundamentals. The company has successfully transitioned its business away from HDD (hard disk drive) to the new standard SSD (solid state drive).
As EMC (EMC) and NetApp (NTAP) have proven, growth in enterprise storage can be lucrative. That and Seagate's exposure to the gaming industry which adopted SSD standard have proven to be extremely profitable. Still, a revival of the PC industry will add exponential value to Seagate's long-term business. For the same reason, investors may look to rival Western Digital (WD). Like Seagate, Western Digital has proven there is life beyond the PC. But life and the company's balance sheet is better when PC's are thriving. And for that matter, the expected recovery in PCs is not a surprise. Intel, whose shares have been up by as much as 23% already told us Gartner's news was coming. While boosting its second-quarter and full-year revenue guidance several weeks ago, Intel cited higher PC unit shipments. While also boosting its said full-year gross margin projection, Intel cited "expected improvements in unit cost and volume." But I do need to offer a bit of caution. Tablets and mobile devices, which began the PC decline, are still growing. There is no sign of slowing down. It also shouldn't be ignored that the PC revival comes on the heels of Microsoft ending its support of the Windows XP operating system. This decision likely motivated companies to accelerate their PC purchases with the most recent operating systems. So it remains to be seen to what extent PCs can coexist with mobile devices. While we wait, AMD, Nvidia, Seagate and Intel should be decent buys, if only for short-term trades. At the time of publication, the author held no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

Silver Spring Networks Expands Smart Street Light Offerings Through New Partnership With Sunrise Technologies
Today at the 2013 IES Street Light & Area Lighting Conference, Silver Spring Networks, Inc. (NYSE: SSNI), a leading networking platform and solutions provider for smart energy networks, announced a new partnership with Sunrise Technologies, a manufacturer of high-performance street lighting photocontrols for utilities. Silver Spring's IPv6 networking platform will be integrated into Sunrise Technologies' utility-grade BrownBetty® OpenGrid Light Control™ module. Sunrise Technologies is the world leader in outdoor lighting controls, serving more than 75 percent of the North American utility market.
"Silver Spring and Sunrise Technologies' proven technology and extensive experience with the world's largest utilities makes us natural partners to help utilities, municipalities and other street light operators control costs, improve efficiencies, and create safer cities as they modernize their public lighting systems," said Sterling Hughes, Senior Director of Advanced Technologies, Silver Spring Networks. "The industry is definitively moving toward general purpose IP networks powering multiple applications and we are proud to extend our smart city platform with Sunrise Technologies."
"Silver Spring Networks' secure IP platform, proven at scale across 17 million Silver Spring-connected endpoints, enables our customers to rapidly deploy large street light networks across their service territory," said Vance Spillman, Vice President and General Manager, Sunrise Technologies. "In addition to delivering these advanced control solutions to our Utility customers, we also look forward to extending these innovations to our commercial lighting customers."
The Silver Spring-enabled Sunrise Technologies BrownBetty® OpenGrid Light Control™ provides network-based control in an easy to install external module, with features including on-off, dimming (energy reduction) functionality, luminaire energy measurement, remote lamp failure detection, and revenue grade light metering for LED and HID luminaires.
"The combination of Silver Spring Networks and Sunrise Technologies makes all the sense in the world," said Rich Monsoor, utility lighting consultant, formerly General Manager with the Street and Area Lighting Department of Puget Sound Energy. "Smart street lights are definitely a part of the future – having the lights connected to a utility's existing network is a cost effective way to optimize the technology and comply with current and future lighting ordinances. Both companies are known for their superior performance and I would be highly confident that the combined system will be world class."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Hamilton Standard Address Plaque
Christmas miracle!
I had looked for lawn address plaques for a Christmas gift for my husband, but forgot to actually ORDER one until the very last minute. When I placed the order, I was told the plaque would not be delivered until the first week of January. However, it arrived in time for Christmas, well ahead of schedule, and greatly appreciated!
The plaque is very well made, was easy to put together and install, and looks like it will give us many years of service. Thank you for saving the day!

Hamilton Address Plaque
We were very pleased with the quality of the plaque. It arrived earlier than expected and is a beautiful and stately addition to the courtyard entrance of our new home.
We have purchased from Frontgate before and have
never been disappointed by the quality of their products.

The address plaque looks beautiful in our yard and really adds a touch of elegance.

Hamilton Standard Address Plaque
Arrived when expected. The Plaque is very sturdy and the lettering looks great. Our house sits quite a distance from the street, but it is easy to see the numbers from the street. Am somewhat worried about how the stakes attach and if they will give me a good length of time to use.
May 1, 2014
Great Purchase!
So glad I purchased this particular address plaque. It's simple, yet artful and the quality of the product is super. I purchased the lawn version and it's the perfect addition for my front yard. When placed beneath an up-light, it shows beautiful at night.
April 29, 2014
Great Address Plaque!
Absolutely what we were looking for! Very easy to put together and looks fabulous too! We put our last name under the number rather than the street name!
February 24, 2014
Very Happy!
This plaque is such a classy addition to our home. I am very happy with its looks and quality. It has only been up for a few days, so we'll see how it weathers, but so far it is great and seems to be well worth the money.
February 10, 2014
First time purchase
The Hamilton Standard Address Plaque is perfect. The display of my house numbers can now be displayed in elegance. We love this item.

John Cena revealed in a recent interview with Times-Picayune that he wasn't sure that he would be involved in this year's WrestleMania event.
"Had you asked me three months ago would I even be involved in WrestleMania, the answer was probably no," said Cena. "So I literally just had to, uh, stop being a boo-boo face, you know? [I had to] get off my horse of pouting and get back in the mix, and that's just what I did… There is nobody more excited than me because very rarely do you get that first chance, you almost never get that second chance. So, I'm very happy to be there."
Here is footage from the said interview with John Cena.

A coloring book full of abstract patterns to get the creative juices flowin'. Read more
A coloring book full of abstract patterns to get the creative juices flowin'.
About this project
You know how you work all day and then come home and want to do something awesome and creative but are super-exhausted from working all day? OMG us too!
Then we remembered that coloring is pretty much the best. After 15 minutes of zoned-out coloring, you're left with something tangible: proof of your creativity in the form of a piece of art! That you just made! Yourself! (Like us, you may also be left with proof of your inability to color within the lines. But that's ok because you are a creative force that cannot be contained!)
Our coloring book contains patterns created by Free Period Press, a group of four Cleveland-based artists and friends. We each developed patterns to stimulate your right brain. We hope each page of the book turns into a collaborative artwork between you and us.
We want to make it really easy for you to squeeze in a creative activity every day. Just like having a free period when you were in school, you can use this coloring book however you want! Zone out, meditate, or get inspired for a creative project of your own.
We have dozens of patterns waiting to be colored by your brilliant self. We just need some help getting the book into your hands. Funds from Kickstarter will go towards funding the printing, binding, and shipping of the coloring book to your door.
These aren't quite like the coloring books you remember from when you were a kid: our books look and feel like low-profile, high quality sketchbooks and contain paper that can withstand markers and watercolor without bleeding. The paper for the cover will be
provided by French Paper, which runs on a 100-year old hydro-powered
generator. Wow!
The books themselves will be printed and assembled right here in beautiful Cleveland, Ohio.
We're offering two versions of the book-- take your pick:
The Big (8.5"x11") Coloring Book
This feels more like your traditional coloring book. It is perfect for a craft night or alone-time when you really want to get into some serious coloring. Each page is perforated, so you can color like crazy and then take out a page to hang on your wall or give to a friend!
The Small (3.5"x5") Notebook
This guy is our take on the traditional sketchbook. Patterns are
printed in a lighter gray ink. This way, you can choose to
color the patterns, build your own designs based on our starting point,
or use the book as a notebook with background texture.
Thank you SO much for taking the time to check out this project. You're the best.
P.S. Attention teachers! Looking to use Free Period in your classroom? Shoot us an e-mail (freeperiodpress [at] gmail [dot] com) with your name and the name of your school and we'll send you the PDF of the coloring book for free! We heart teachers.
P.P.S. You can also stay in touch with us on Tumblr and Twitter!
Risks and challenges
Printing the perfect coloring book will involved lots of proofs with the printer to make sure everything looks perfect. This might take some extra time, but we'll do our best to make sure everything gets out the door on schedule.

RAWR. I've been meaning to post a journal entry, but (clearly) I haven't gotten around to it. I haven't been making anything lately, it's more of just studying and getting by. School ends for me in a month, and things will definitely be picking up then! Hopefully I'll have my new Etsy shop set up. I miss dA and Etsy too much. T_T
Also, I applied to a summer/seasonal job at...c'mon, what's the most wonderful craft store in the US....
Now, apparently my friend and I have this job in the bag. But they told us to call back in the middle of May...
Ah well. I have a friend that works there, and she said we had it. And the manager acted like I was going to be working there (telling me about the new uniform, "Oh yeah, by the time you start working we'll have them!")...so hopefully. I really want this job. It would be my first real job, plus a 20%-25% discount on everything not on sale? HECK YEAH.
*sigh* time to get back to cramming.

Another fun idea would be to do away with primaries and conventions, take every person that can garner enough support to launch a national campaign and place their names on the ballot, and let the people vote for whomever they like. Again require the winner to receive at least 51%. That would mean a runnoff in some cases.
Regardless of anything else we should have a week to vote. That would increase the turnout.

AT&T Center
Attendance: 16,913
San Antonio, TX (Sports Network) - Tony Parker scored 19 points and dished out nine assists, leading the San Antonio Spurs to yet another home victory over the Golden State Warriors, 111-94, at AT&T Center.
DeJuan Blair was a factor down low with 15 points and a season-high 13 rebounds for the Spurs, who have beaten Golden State 25 straight times at home and 10 consecutive times overall. At 18-3, San Antonio is off to its best 21- game start in franchise history.
"I thought everyone did a really good job of finding the open man," said Spurs head coach Gregg Popvich. "Being aggressive but understanding that teammates were open and making the easy pass to the next guy. I thought everybody did that very well."
For some historical perspective, the last time the Warriors won in the Alamo City -- during the 1996-97 season -- superstar Tim Duncan was a rookie. Duncan, who has since won three NBA titles and two NBA MVPs, scored only eight points in limited action in this contest.
Reggie Williams exploded for a season-high 31 points on a career-best eight three-point shots made for the Warriors, who have lost five straight and 10 of 11. Monta Ellis added 19 points, while David Lee had 16 with 13 rebounds in defeat.
"We played a very good team on the road here," Lee said. "We made our runs and we never stopped playing hard. But overall, too many turnovers and not enough good defense."
In some worse news for Golden State, sharpshooter Stephen Curry left after spraining his ankle in the second quarter. He finished with zero points.
The Warriors held a 9-4 lead early, but it was all Spurs from there.
From there, the Spurs scored 16 straight points to take the lead for good. Parker had seven points during the surge, and Blair's bucket with 6 1/2 minutes left in the period made it 20-9.
The margin stood at 29-19 after the first quarter, though the Warriors pulled to within 48-45 on a Lee driving layup with 1:23 left until halftime.
San Antonio, though, scored nine of the final 11 points, and Manu Ginobili's three made it 57-47 at the break. The Spurs opened the second half on another 9-2 run to grab a 66-49 lead on back-to-back Duncan layups, and the home team held the lead throughout the third to take an 86-74 lead to the fourth.
The outcome was never in doubt in the fourth, as the Spurs led by double digits the entire way.
