Marcial halts foe as Palicte, Bautista pull off victories
WORLD Youth champion Eumir Felix Marcial stopped Turkmenistan's Shamurat Cherkezov in their light welterweight clash last night to cap a perfect start for Team Philippines in the 2013 ASBC Asian Confederation Youth Boxing Championships at Subic gym.
Marcial, who ruled the light bantamweight division of the 2011 World Junior Championships held in Kazakhstan, won by Referee Stopped Contest (RSC) over Cherkesov in 2:02 of the second round as he joined teammates Ian Clark Bautista and James Palicte in the winners' circle.
Bautista prevailed by countback in his 52-kilogram tussle with India's Kavinder Bisht, while Palicte repulsed a rallying Yuuta Akiyama of Japan, 11-9.
Trailing, 10-9, Bautista staggered Bisht with a counter right cross in the closing seconds to force the countback.
Bautista prevailed in the individual score of the five judges, 33-30.
National coach Romeo Brin said Bautista's youth and inexperience got the better of him.
"He (Bautista) is not yet accustomed to these fights," said Brin in Filipino. "He got complacent, but we'll be able to correct that in his next fights."
Jonas Bacho (56kg-bantamweight) and World Junior bronze medalist Jade Bornea (49kg-light fly), who drew byes, will make their debut for Team Philippines today in the event confined to 17- and 18-year-olds.
Bacho faces Sri Lanka's Ruchira Gunasena, while Bornea meets Uzbekistan's Murodjon Akhmadaliev.
"It's not dangerous, but not light either," said national coach Elmer Pamisa in Filipino of the opening day bouts for the hometown bets. "These are good bouts. You'll know where you stand right at the start."
From 26 countries, the field was reduced to 24 following the last-minute withdrawals of Malaysia and Pakistan. Roy Luarca

Cameron Diaz, Sandra Bullock and Jennifer Aniston are searching for "the mother of all chick comedies" to act in together, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
Twenty years after they all became household names, the forty-something actresses are hunting for a funny script that would give them all meaty roles, an insider tells Radar.
"But Sandra is the one who is friends with both Cameron and Jennifer, and would likely get top billing in the project," notes the source.
"It's amazing that this is even being considered by this group — and shows that they're putting aside old rivalries to find ways of staying relevant in recession-racked Hollywood.
"Although there isn't a script or concept in play just yet, the film could do for girl comedies what The Avengers did for superhero movies," the source said.
"The success of The Heat and the movie Bridesmaids has shown that female buddy comedies are the hottest thing going and Cameron, Sandra and Jen would love to work together and rake in box office gold."
According to the insider, the idea has particularly inspired Peter Chernin, the well-heeled producer of Bullock's recent comedy hit, The Heat, as well as Cameron's longtime pal Drew Barrymore, who is currently hunting for a new film to direct after a several-years-long break.
How psyched would you be for a flick with all these women? Sound off in comments below…

A Nation of Makers
Week of Making Intro Text
We are excited to announce that the White House will celebrate a "Week of Making" this summer from June 12-18!
The Week will coincide with the National Maker Faire here in D.C., featuring makers from across the country and will include participation by federal agencies including: the Department of Education, National Science Foundation, U.S. Agency for International Development, U.S. Small Business Administration, Institute of Museum and Library Services, National Institute of Standards and Technology, NASA, Corporation for National and Community Service, Department of Homeland Security and the Smithsonian.
Last year, on June 18, President Obama hosted the first-ever White House Maker Faire and issued a call to action that "every company, every college, every community, every citizen joins us as we lift up makers and builders and doers across the country." At last year's Faire, President Obama welcomed people of all ages who are funneling their ingenuity into amazing projects, developing creative solutions to important problems and bringing their innovations to market.
If you or your organization has plans to support students, inventors, designers, builders and other makers in your community, let us know by completing the form below. We look forward to announcing progress on the President's call to action during the Week of Making.
Democratizing the tools and skills necessary to design and make just about anything is enabling individuals to pursue careers in design, advanced manufacturing, and the related fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and possibly take their creations to the next level and become entrepreneurs.
Last year, the President launched an all-hands on deck effort asking mayors, Federal agencies, schools and educational institutions, companies, foundations, libraries and museums to support Makers and many responded with commitments, which were announced during the White House Maker Faire.
This Summer, the White House will celebrate a "Week of Making" from June 12-18. The Week will coincide with the National Maker Faire here in D.C., featuring makers from across the country and will include participation by federal agencies including: the Department of Education, National Science Foundation, U.S. Agency for International Development, U.S. Small Business Administration, Institute of Museum and Library Services, National Institute of Standards and Technology, NASA, Corporation for National and Community Service, Department of Homeland Security and the Smithsonian.
To continue to create more opportunities for making across the U.S., we need your help. We'd like to hear from you if you or your organization is planning to respond to the President's call to action. Some topics for commitments include:
- Creating hands-on learning opportunities for students to engage in STEM arts and design through making in and outside the classroom
- Broadening participation in making for girls, young women and underrepresented minorities
- Supporting the development of low-cost tools for prototyping
- Developing capabilities that enable maker entrepreneurs to produce their products domestically and scale volume
- Engaging makers in developing solutions to pressing local and global challenges
The fact sheet from last year's White House Maker Faire is a helpful reference. Please complete the form below by May 25th.

The Maker Movement
America has always been a nation of tinkerers, inventors, and entrepreneurs. In recent years, a growing number of Americans have gained access to technologies such as 3D printers, laser cutters, easy-to-use design software, and desktop machine tools. This, in combination with freely available information about how to use, modify, and build upon these technologies and the availability of crowd funding platforms, is enabling more Americans to design and build almost anything.
Empowering students and adults to create, innovate, tinker, and make their ideas and solutions into reality is at the heart of the Maker Movement. Since the first-ever White House Maker Faire, the White House has continued to support opportunities for students to learn about STEM through making, expand the resources available for maker entrepreneurs, and foster the development of advanced manufacturing in the U.S.
More on the Making
More about how the White House, federal agencies, communities, educational institutions, companies, libraries and museums are coming together to expand opportunities for making:
Making At the White House
President Obama hosted the first-ever Maker Faire on June 18, 2014.
For the holidays this year, the White House featured Bo and Sunny in the holiday decorations as life-size, animated "dog-bots."
The White House announces the winners of it's first-ever 3D-printed ornament challenge.
More Maker Opportunities
The First Lady held a fashion workshop highlighting the growing role of makers and new technologies in the creative economy.
Higher education institutions respond to the President's call to support making on college campuses.
Case Western is providing a makerspace and innovation center to give students, staff, faculty and members of the public the tools they need to create, build and invent.
Young African Leaders joined the US Global Development Lab and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy at Fab Lab DC to discuss the role of making in Africa's economic and community development.
Related Issues & Initiatives
Maker Cities
On the day of the first-ever White House Maker Faire, cities around the country signed on to the Mayors Maker Challenge. These cities committed to taking steps to broaden opportunities for making in their communities. Since then, more than 100 cities have been taking action by doing things such as hosting mayor maker roundtables and town halls, supporting the creation of makers spaces and appointing a liaison or task force to establish collaborations that support local Makers. Using the map below, check out what cities have been doing and send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com if you have an update on what your city has been doing!

Stay Engaged
Want to join in the fun? Here are a few ideas to get you thinking:
- Post photos of a current Maker project you are working on or choose a new project to work on and ask a couple of friends or family members to build it with you. You can find fun and creative projects ideas from a variety of websites for Makers such as MAKE.
- Host an open house at your local makerspace or set up a hangout online to connect and share your inventions with Makers across the country.
- Volunteer to be a mentor for someone who is interested in learning a new skill or find a mentor who would be interested in teaching a new skill you've been wanting to learn for a while.
- Create a project of your own and then share the plans for your project online through Maker platforms so others can also make, modify, or remix your project.
- Organize a maker roundtable to identify and convene maker thought leaders in your community on expanding Making initiatives, programs, and activities in your neighborhood.
- If you're an organization or company, encourage your employees to volunteer as an educator and/or mentor to host maker-oriented workshops or classes in your community.

1712 Wells Map of Greece, the Balkans, Macedonia and Turkey in Europe
Description: This is an attractive 1712 map of Greece, the Balkans, Macedonia and Turkey in Europe by Edward Wells of Oxford. Centered on modern day Greece, it covers from Transylvania and Hungary to Crete and the Mediterranean and from Venice east as far as Cyprus, inclusive of modern day Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Macedonia, Albania, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia and Moldova. The Greek Isles are well represented. It notes towns, islands, rivers, capes, and a host of other topographical features. The map depicts the region when most of Greece and the Balkans were under the control of the Ottoman Turks.
A decorative cartouche appears on the left of the map featuring the coat of arms of the Duke of Gloucester. This, like many other Wells maps, is dedicated to Prince William, Duke of Gloucester and son of Queen Anne, who, when this map was being prepared, was a student at Oxford. Engraved by Smith and published by T. Bonwicke for the 1712 edition of Edward Wells' Atlas, A New Sett of Maps both of Ancient and Present Geography.
Date: 1712 (undated)
Source: Wells, E., A New Sett of Maps both of Ancient and Present Geography, (London, T. w. Bonwicke) c. 1712. A New Sett of Maps both of Ancient and Present Geography was published by Edward Wells in various editions between 1701 and 1730. The publication contained some 40 maps all of which were dedicated to Prince William, Duke of Gloucester. Wells tutored the young prince at Christchurch, Oxford and seems to have developed a close relationship with him. At just 11 years of age, William died in 1700 and never had the opportunity to see the published work that he inspired. The atlas was intended for educational purposes with a focus on school use.
References: New York Public Library, Map Division, OCLC : 7143148 (1700 edition).
Cartographer: Edward Wells (1667 - 1727) was an English mathematician, geographer, and classical scholar based at Christ Church College, Oxford. Well's was trained for the ministry but quickly found himself unsuited to religious life and instead applied for an academic position at Oxford, where he authored numerous well respected works on a wide range of mathematical and scientific topics. He was chosen to tutor the young Prince William, the sickly son of Queen Anne. The two must have been quite close for Well's dedicated nearly all of the maps in his most important atlas, A New Sett of Maps both of Ancient and Present Geography. Sadly, he young prince died in July of 1700 shortly before the atlas was published. Nonetheless, Wells' geography proved popular and was published in number editions well into the 1730s. Click here for a list of rare maps by Edward Wells.
Size: Printed area measures 20 x 15 inches (50.8 x 38.1 centimeters)
Scale: 1 : 4500000
Condition: Very good. Some wear and spotting along original centerfold. Some foxing in top left quadrant. Original platemark visible. Professionally flattened and backed with archival tissue.

Interleague Preview from The Sports Network
Friday, April 25th (All times eastern)
Cleveland Indians (11-11) at San Francisco Giants (12-10), 10:15 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: Cleveland - Carlos Carrasco (0-2, 7.31) San Francisco - Tim Hudson (2-1, 2.40)
(SportsNetwork.com) - The San Francisco Giants return to AT&T Park Friday night to begin a three-game series with the Cleveland Indians.
San Francisco wrapped up a 2-4 road trip with a 12-10 win at Colorado in 11 innings on Wednesday. The offense came to life by slugging six home runs as the Giants avoided the series sweep.
Michael Morse and Hector Sanchez both went deep twice, and Sanchez sealed the outcome with his first career grand slam in the 11th inning.
"I couldn't be prouder of these guys," said Giants manager Bruce Bochy, who was ejected by home-plate umpire Chris Conroy in the fourth for arguing a called third strike. "We're down, what, 5-1, looking at getting swept here and how hard they fought to find a way to win a game here. It makes for a better flight home and a day off."
It was a much needed outburst considering the Giants offense had produced a collective .166 batting average (and .063 with RISP) through the first five games of the trip. In fact, they had been held to two runs or fewer in six of their previous seven games, and 10 of their last 13 games have been decided by one run.
"We still have to do a little better job with men on base," Bochy said. "We're leaving some guys stranded, not moving guys. And that's got to pick up a little bit. But still, you're seeing better at-bats."
Not only will Friday mark the Giants' first interleague series, it will also be their first game this season against a team outside the NL West.
Cleveland has picked up wins in four of its last five games, including Thursday's 5-1 triumph over Kansas City to clinch a four-game series. Right- hander Corey Kluber was nearly untouchable, as he tossed his first complete game while notching a career-high 11 strikeouts. The Indians offense supported Kluber with a five-run fifth inning.
Toeing the rubber for the Tribe in Friday's series opener is right-hander Carlos Carrasco, who is winless with an 8.25 ERA over his last 16 big league starts dating back to 2011. He got a no-decision against Toronto on Sunday after allowing four earned runs over 5 2/3 innings with three walks and five strikeouts.
For San Francisco, veteran Tim Hudson gets his first crack at Cleveland since he was with Oakland 10 years ago. The right-hander is 2-1 with a 2.40 ERA through his first four starts in 2014 and has lasted at least seven innings each time. He scattered eight hits and only two earned runs over seven frames at San Diego in his last outing.
This marks the first meeting between these two teams since 2011, when the Giants swept a three-game set at home. However, the Giants were among baseball's worst teams in interleague play last year, going 6-14.

About Stren
The complete line of Stren products includes superlines, fluorocarbon lines and monofilament lines to fit any fishing application and need. Anglers know all about Stren's knot strength, abrasion resistance, tensile and shock strength. Amateurs and pros alike count on Stren to present the right type of visibility to the conditions, whether it's line-shy fish or low-light conditions. Factors like line stretch and limpness can make or break your day, which is why Stren line maximizes each for the type of fishing you're doing.
The Stren Timeline, from Nylon to Microbond and Beyond
From the innovation of nylon in 1938 came nothing short of a revolution in fishing line. Stren was created in 1958 and from that day this classic sport fishing line initiated the remarkable science of high-performance fishing line that continues uninterrupted today. The fact that the brand became a household name in fishing circles speaks volumes about the dependable performance Stren has delivered cast after cast, catch after catch.
From the first nylon monofilament, other discoveries and innovations bearing the Stren name quickly caught on: abrasion resistance, co-filament line, Magnathin technology, high-tensile High Impact line, Super Tough, Lumaflex, Easy Cast, Powerbraid, Lo-Vis, Sensor, Stren Extra Strength, Advanced Microbond Technology… and beyond into areas other manufacturers can't match.
All of us at Stren are proud to be a part of the Pure Fishing family of industry-leading brands. Together with Berkley, Abu Garcia, Mitchell, Fenwick, Spiderwire and more, Stren makes fishing more enjoyable for more people, and that's what it's always been about.
Meet the Team
Crayton has worked in fishing line for 12 years. He started his career on the manufacturing floor and has since held positions as value stream leader and production supervisor. His experiences have made him somewhat of a line guru. Today, Crayton manages operations and is a certified lean specialist. He has a focus on driving efficiency and is dedicated to continuous process improvement efforts. In his free time, Crayton spends time with his kids and helps coach a little league softball team.
Derek works hands-on with fishing line every day. As a value stream leader, he not only helps produce Stren, he also works to ensure that only the highest quality products are distributed to customers. Derek is also a skilled angler and has a passion for everything that is fishing. He's confident in his fishing line because he makes it. If you can drag him away from the fishing rod, Derek spends the rest of his free time hunting.
Tim is our in-house Fluorocarbon expert with more than 10 years experience. As the Product Development Manager, Tim spends his days deep in formulations and line performance metrics. He's the scientific mind that created both Stren 100% Fluorocarbon and Stren Fluorocast. Tim is also a knot genius and prides himself in getting the ultimate strength out of each one he ties. Outside of work, Tim has a busy family life and enjoys time outdoors.

Hildegarde (February 1, 1906 - July 29, 2005) was an American cabaret singer, best known for the song "Darling, Je Vous Aime Beaucoup."
She trained at Marquette University's College of Music in the 1920s.
During the peak of her popularity in the 1930s and '40s, she was booked in cabarets and supper clubs at least 45 weeks a year. She appeared on the cover of Life magazine in 1939, and her recordings sold in the hundreds of thousands. Revlon even introduced a Hildegarde shade of lipstick and nail polish.
She was once referred to as a "luscious, hazel-eyed Milwaukee blonde who sings the way Garbo looks".
"Hildegarde was perhaps the most famous supper-club entertainer who ever lived," the entertainer Liberace once said. "I used to absorb all the things she was doing, all the showmanship she created. It was marvelous to watch her, wearing elegant gowns, surrounded with roses and playing with white gloves on. They used to literally roll out the red carpet for her."
Hildegarde's admirers ranged from soldiers during World War II to King Gustaf of Sweden and the Duke of Windsor.
She never married. She was the business partner and good friend of Anna Sosenko. That relationship ended up in litigation over the control of receipts from their joint efforts.
From the 1950s through the 1970s, in addition to her cabaret performances and record albums, she appeared in a number of television specials and toured with the national company of the Stephen Sondheim musical Follies.
Her autobiography, Over 50 .... So What!, was published by Doubleday in 1961.
She died at the age of 99 in a hospital in New York on July 29, 2005, of natural causes.

easily offended. Someone uses "religious right" as a broad term, referring to those in that group as people who generally want to govern from the church.
This "offends" you and makes you feel like a victim of bigotry.
I am not an atheist, I do believe in a higher power. I'm actually baptized catholic.
A candidates religion is the absolute LEAST important thing to me in my decision to vote for them.
Governing from the church is not anything I can vote for.
The church would infringe on my personal behavior excessively.

10 Even MORE Ads to Disturb & Disgust You!
Howdy all! Back for more, eh? Well, it has become very apparent to me that I could write articles about freaky ads at least once per month for the rest of my life and still not run out of material.
I dunno what ad agencies are thinking with some of this stuff. And while I question the efficacy of these campaigns, I can't deny the creativity involved their design. I also feel that these ads are a mirror to modern society... sort of a test. How much can we deal with before we, as consumers, snap?
As with my previous ventures into this territory (11 Ads to Disturb and Disgust You & 10 More Ads to Disgust & Disturb You), I'm gonna start light and move on to the more freaky stuff as we amble toward the bottom of the page. Be warned...
1. Maxim's Chilli Tuna
This is one of those things that you try not to think about when swimming in the ocean (or a river, or a lake). Fish, whales, seals, crabs, et cetera... well, they fart... and poop... in the water that WE swim in. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
2. Lifebouy: You Eat What You Touch
What kind'a disturbs me is imagining how this little guy would walk... It would be... disconcerting.
But I bet he'd purr...

Bernanke says US stimulus also a boon for global growth
Published on Oct 14, 2012 12:29 PM
WASHINGTON (REUTERS/AP) - Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on Sunday denied the US central bank's highly stimulative monetary policy hurts emerging economies, saying stronger growth in the United States bolsters global prospects as well.
Mr Bernanke has often defended Fed actions against domestic critics, who argue the policy of keeping interest rates near zero while ramping up asset purchases hurts savers and risks future inflation.
But, in a speech in Tokyo, Mr Bernanke addressed international critics of the policy who argue that the unorthodox Fed policies weaken the US dollar and boost the value of developing country currencies, hurting their ability to export.
"It is not at all clear that accommodative policies in advanced economies impose net costs on emerging market economies," the Fed chief told an event sponsored by the Bank of Japan and the International Monetary Fund, in prepared remarks made available to reporters in Washington.

fourm member, I agree with you but most of us accept what is presented by the media. Terrorists of course want maximum coverage, so do you give them that or suppress it which will encourage greater atrocities. I don't know the answer.

You make a very good point and, as always, I'm glad I'm just speculating about it on an Internet forum rather than having to make those decisions.
At one end of the scale the attention given to Paul Kevin Curtis this week runs the risk of encouraging other 'crazies' to try the same thing. At the other, as you say, you have the chance of someone committing a major act of terrorism because the media wasn't interested when all they did was a bit of banner waving and flag burning.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
Choose between 'evil corporation' or 'evil mad-scientists' with miniguns, bazookas or laser cannons in a futuristic cyberpunk universe. An interesting idea and it was created by one of my favourite developers 'Peter Molyneux' who had made Dungeon Keeper and Theme Park (now hes known for Black&White and the Fable series). The game was addictive when I started playing it to the point that I miss it today and struggle to try to run my copy of the game on DosBox without the game going too fast. The click and point gameplay makes think this game would be awesome if it was on the NintendoDS as they released the original ThemePark on the DS.

"I Made A Name For My Own Self Too": Tamar Might Be Done With "Braxton Family Values" Because It's Hurting Relationships With Her Sisters
This hasn't been the best season of "Braxton Family Values" for all the sisters. And even though they've all made strides in their careers, we've watched the tension grow between them. One big issue this time around has been the fact that certain people feel Tamar does not give enough credit to sister Toni for paving the way for her current musical success. On the other side of the fence, Tamar acknowledges that Toni has opened doors for the family, but that she has worked hard on her own to build up her name outside of Toni. That drama spilled over to social media recently, and it was starting to look like the show was creating a rift in the relationships of the Braxton sisters.
In a new interview with Renada Romain of Ear Candy Mornings, Tamar and Vince Herbert talked about all the drama and why "Braxton Family Values" might not be a good fit for her anymore.
Renada: "Do you think you need to leave the show?"
Tamar: "I have not quite made up my mind yet."
Renada: "But it is something you've been thinking about?"
Tamar: "Definitely. I feel like I really work hard for everything I have. Nothing has been handed to me, no matter if people want to contribute that to Toni's success or Vincent's success. At the end of the day, I have to get up early every day and bust my behind just like everybody else. So for me, I don't want to be depicted as a person that I'm completely not. If I signed up for a reality show that's one thing. But if I signed up for a scripted show, that's another thing. I'm not into that."
Vince: "It's not worth Tamar's relationship with her sisters. That's what attracted me to this woman. She loves her family so hard. At the end of the day, Toni Braxton is Toni Braxton. The way they will turn…Tamar also said in that line, 'and so much you have done for our family,' but that line got cut off. It's a little sad for me to watch my wife defend herself when I know how much she loves her family. Each and every one of them, including her mom and her dad. Because I know that 11 years ago, I saw this woman loving her family so hard. And for people to see THAT and make that decision, that's not who they're looking at because that's not her and that's not true."
Tamar: "I don't know if people remember, but last promos, I walked around with a Toni Braxton T-shirt! I'm trying to figure out when did Toni Braxton become a problem in my life? I look up to her!"
Renada: "Tamar, what's the one thing that you think is the biggest misconception about you? Because a lot of people, I don't think they knew that you had four record deals prior to the show. They think it happened overnight! But you've been grinding for a while."
Tamar: "For a while…I think that now, the one that has been created is the saying that I have a big head and that I think I'm the diva. Or I think that I don't owe anything to my sister, Toni Braxton. At the end of the day, yeah, she made the Braxton name very famous because she worked her behind off. I can't take that away from her. But then again, you can't take away from me the fact that, at the end of the day, I made a name for my own self too, and that's okay."
I would have to agree that it might be time for Tamar to move away from this show. Anything that entertains others but hurts the relationships with family that make you happy is simply not worth it. Besides, does Tamar really need to be on this show anymore?
Have You Been Watching? Ratings For The Premiere Of "The Real" Are In And They're Not That Great…
In case you weren't aware, this week marked the premiere of "The Real" on Fox. The show had a four week trial run last summer and though it only premiered in seven Fox markets (including New York, Los Angeles, D.C., Philadelphia, Phoenix, Houston and Tampa), the show did so well that it was given the green light to be broadcast nationally, with reruns playing on BET.
The show premiered on Monday, and according to reports, it's doing so-so. Let's see if I can break this TV numbers talk down so that it makes sense.
Courtesy of Broadcasting & Cable, according to Nielsen Media Research, the talk show premiered on Monday with a 0.9 rating/3 share in primary run metered market averages. The show's numbers were 40% below their lead-in program and had a 10 percent decrease in viewership compared to the show that it replaced (the short-lived "Bethenny" was in the same time-slot last year).
Among women ages 25-54, the show averaged 0.8 and was down 38 percent from its lead-in show, but was up 14 percent from the numbers "Bethenny" was pulling last year. With less than a million viewers in its premiere, the show isn't necessarily tearing the roof off of daytime TV ("Live with Kelly and Michael is doing that with 2.7 in its premiere), but it's doing well among younger viewers. And with all the commentary on Twitter that I saw on Monday about it, the program has a strong social media presence.
I've watched every episode since the program premiered on Monday, and I still think it has potential.
However, the women should probably start talking about things going on in the news or in popular culture (or get some better guests) instead of just taking Twitter challenges to talk with mouths full of marshmallows and pissing Tamar off with too much talk about her man Vince ("Let's talk about somebody else's man"), because sometimes it seems they're talking over one another about a whole lot of nothing.
Aside from that, I like that they're trying to bring something fresh to daytime, and I would encourage everyone to give the show a try if you haven't–at least once.
Have you been tuning in to "The Real"?

"Choosey Lover" And "No, No, No": 9 Songs You You Probably Didn't Know Vince Herbert Wrote And Produced
For many people, when you think of Vince Herbert these days, you think of Tamar Braxton, or a Lady Gaga. He has steered the careers of both women and helped them obtain major success. But before he was doing that, he was a writer and producer for quite a few major talents during the '90s. Here are 9 hits and deep cuts that Vince (then credited as Vincent Herbert or V.H.) has lent his talents to over the years.
"Pastor & Deacon Herbert": Tamar Braxton Posts Adorable Easter Pic Of Baby Logan
While Easter (aka, Resurrection Day) has come and gone, the cute pictures from the holiday are still popping up online, including this image Tamar Braxton shared on her Instagram a few hours ago. In it, Vince holds on to his little guy, baby Logan, who is the freshest toddler out the stroller in his white pants, linen jacket, brown boots and fedora hat. Tamar captioned this adorable picture with, "Pastor & Deacon Herbert #easter2014," because really, that's what Logan is giving us in the image.
I just can't get over how cute this kid is.
This was Logan's first Easter, and the cutie patootie will be ringing in the big 0-1 on June 6. These kids grow up so fast! Check out a few more of Logan's cutest moments so far below (via Tamar's Instagram).

"Threats Or Being Rude 2my Family Will Get U BLOCKED!" Tamar Defends Towanda From "Tamartians"
If you'll recall, people were giving Towanda Braxton quite a bit of hell after she put Vince Herbert's financial issues on blast on Twitter. When explaining her behavior to our sister site, Bossip, she said that her statements about Herbert were out of character, but were brought on by fans of her sister, Tamar, making ugly statements about her children:
I take a lot. I have tough skin and usually I laugh things off. I just have to admit that a lot of the Tamartians, most of them are extremely disrespectful and I didn't care that they were attacking me, I didn't care that they were attacking Andre, what I cared about was when they started attacking my kids. They said 'I wish Towanda's kids got raped and run over by a bus.' See people didn't see that stuff. They just saw what I wrote. So after that I have to say that was 100% out of character for Towanda to respond, but I wasn't thinking about what was right and what was wrong at that moment I was just reacting and responding.
We always have have a sister thread in our messages, so we got on that and I was in trouble because it was totally out of character for me, until I explained, "Hey these children are attacking your niece and your nephew." Then they understood. Like 'Okay, we get it. We wouldn't have done it that way but we get it.'
Tamar never responded to her sister's very rude comments about Vince owing the IRS a few million dollars, but she did take time out of her day recently to let her fans know that whatever issues she has with her sisters have nothing to do with them, so they need to cool it with attacks on Towanda, and all of her sisters in general:
So despite the drama she might have with Towanda that people have seen on Braxton Family Values, Tamar is still quick to stand by her, even against her own fans. Family first!
What do you think of what Tamar had to say to her Tamartians?
"That Was 100% Out Of Character": Towanda Braxton Explains Why She Put Vince Herbert's Finances On Blast
If you'll recall, last week Towanda Braxton had everyone talking when she publicly dissed Tamar's husband, Vince Herbert, on Twitter. Tamar and Towanda have had quite the bumpy relationship this season of Braxton Family Values, with many people saying that Towanda has been jealous of her little sister's success. So some fans of Tamar's took to Twitter last week and blasted Towanda, saying she was jealous that Tamar's man is a multimillionaire, while hers (who she's separated from) is a "bum." That prompted Towanda's response about Vince, which was:
@mslady57 check the web boo! He also owes 3.3 million to the irs…guess I'm jealous of that too huh?
Obviously that didn't sit well with many people. But in an interview with our sister site, BOSSIP, Towanda said that while her statements were out of character, she only made them because Tamartians were making vicious comments about her kids:
I take a lot. I have tough skin and usually I laugh things off. I just have to admit that a lot of the Tamartians, most of them are extremely disrespectful and I didn't care that they were attacking me, I didn't care that they were attacking Andre, what I cared about was when they started attacking my kids. They said 'I wish Towanda's kids got raped and run over by a bus.' See people didn't see that stuff. They just saw what I wrote. So after that I have to say that was 100% out of character for Towanda to respond, but I wasn't thinking about what was right and what was wrong at that moment I was just reacting and responding.
Towanda also shared that Tamar was very hurt by her statements, but did defend her on Twitter:
She was pissed! Rightfully so. We always have have a sister thread in our messages, so we got on that and I was in trouble because it was totally out of character for me, until I explained, "Hey these children are attacking your niece and your nephew." Then they understood. Like 'Okay, we get it. We wouldn't have done it that way but we get it.'
Despite all that, Towanda does say that while what she said was mean-spirited, the news about Vince's finances is not private family business–it's all over the web:
…a lot of people are like 'Towanda, you just blasted the family business!' I didn't tell family business. That was already on the web. This was public knowledge before I said anything ladies and gentlemen. I didn't divulge any secrets of the Braxton family. I don't do that. It's just like with the Traci situation, I didn't say 'Hey y'all this what's going on, Traci told me blah blah blah.' I don't do that. Allegedly Traci's husband had a kid out of wedlock — it was on the web, it wasn't anything I found out from her.
And Towanda did clear up rumors about her relationship with Kordell. She said they are friends…but you never know what the future will hold:
I met Kordell at an event and I thought he was a nice guy. We're just friends. Let me just make it clear. We're definitely friends. Once I met him there, you know when it's like the beginning stages and you're trying to get to know a person, it wasn't a love connection and I think it was partially because of my situation. [Being separated and not divorced.] A lot of guys are like that and that's where he is.
Check out Towanda's full BOSSIP interview (and it's long) here, and share your thoughts on all she had to say.
Towanda Braxton Checks Twitter Fan About Relationship With Tamar
When you have four sisters, there's bound to be drama at some point, and if you're a fan of Braxton Family Values, you may have witnessed some tension between Towanda and Tamar and the sisters as of late.
Well if Towanda wasn't already feeling some type of way, it all came out on Twitter the other night when a fan accused her of being jealous. A fan tweeted:
"And she can't help it that her husband is a multimillionaire and yours is a bum! #bvf @towandabraxton #jealous,"
Well she must have hit a nerve, because Towanda quickly fired back:
"@mslady57 check the web boo! He also owes 3.3 million to the irs…guess I'm jealous of that too huh?"
While we can understand Towanda catching feelings, we'd think she'd be littler more supportive and throw a little less shade at her brother-in-law's financial troubles.
She might be in her feelings since Kordell Stewart, whom she was rumored to be dating, recently shut down those rumors publicly. According to Bossip, on a recent taping of the Tom Joyner Morning Show, Stewart denied any romantic dealings with Towanda:
"Towanda Braxton is a nice lady. I had the opportunity to meet her and no, we're not dating."
Stewart divorced Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams last year.
Reports reveal that Tamar's husband Vince owes over $3 million dollars in back taxes. We don't understand why these celebrities keep playing with Uncle Sam. He finds everyone, celebrity or not. Either way, Towanda's being messy with family matters. We hope the sisters can stop throwing the shade and go back to sharing the love.
Does Eve Owe The IRS $327K In Back Taxes Too!?
New year, new IRS targets.
We told you yesterday that the IRS is allegedly on Vince Herbert's back over unpaid taxes totaling $3,325,107.70. Now, according to Radar Online, newly engaged rapper Eve has the IRS on her back too. Based on newly-filed court documents (which Radar Online has), E-V-E, aka, Eve Jeffers, has two separate tax liens filed against her in the state of New York. The first lien was placed against the 35-year-old in the summer for unpaid taxes from 2007, 2010 and 2011. The total of her unpaid taxes in that lien comes to a total of $224,987.95.
The second lien came in November of 2013, after the rapper was audited a year before for not paying $102,084.30 in 2012. So the tally of her unpaid taxes for all four years rounds out to $327,072.25.
But there should be no need for Eve to fret. Of course, she's engaged to be married to millionaire Maximillion Cooper, the man behind the popular international Gumball 3000 races. So I'm sure he'll be able to lend her a couple hundred thousand to make this whole tax lien thing go away. Either way, it's a rough start to the year for stars and their money. But let's hope Herbert and Eve can fix their lien issues long before the IRS tries to come for them with jail time like they did the likes of Lauryn Hill and Fat Joe last year.
Check out the physical court documents over at Radar Online and share your thoughts.
Lemme Upgrade You: Vince Gives Tamar An Enormous Diamond Ring For Christmas
Apparently Christmas is ring season, even if you're already married. After sharing news that Dwyane Wade put a ring on it, as did Evelyn Lozada's boo Carl Crawford, we've found out Vince Herbert did too — for the second time.
Miss Tamar Braxton just showed off the enormous new wedding ring her hubby Vince bought her on Instagram, writing:
I'll say yes!&yes!&YES Vincent Herbert a zillions years…..cause we will #STAY&FIGHT!! I'll LOVE you forever!!..man of my dreams!!! We're so true.
Vince, being the more private, non-social media participant in the marriage, didn't share his motivation for the new rock, but we know one thing, Tamar's entire left hand is certainly shining bright like a diamond right about now. Must be nice…

"She Comes For Everybody": K. Michelle On Tamar, Having A #1 Album, And Splitting From Her Ex Lance
K. Michelle sat down for a very interesting interview with Kevin and Makael of the Skorpion Show to talk about her music success, her struggles in the love department (who doesn't have them?) and the real behind her issues with Tamar Braxton. We've got the low-down for you:
How It Felt To Have Her Album Go Number 1 On The R&B Charts:
"It felt great. I waited so long to put an album out. And you know I fought so hard for it. I went from city to city, kissing babies, touching hands, everybody, and it was straight hard real numbers. And it was people out there who bought my album and it was amazing…It made me feel amazing. I call myself the People's Champ because so many people try to come for me all the time and they try to talk about me. But nothing is better than being successful. That's the best revenge you can have for anybody. And to outsell, you know, artists, you know I look up to, it's nothing short of a miracle. I'm just excited about it. Sorry, girls, but it's my time now [laughs]."
Why She Couldn't Stick Around With Ex-Boo Lance:
"He's cool, he's a sweetheart. It's good, it's whatever. When you mentally have other issues going on, I'm talking about me, it's very hard to get into a new relationship. I just feel like there was a big age gap in that situation and um….I'm just a handful. I know I'm a lot. And to ask a 23-year-old to understand this job too, and being 23, trying to date somebody you never dated, an artist or things like that. Then you're in the NBA and you want to sling d*ck and be 23 and I'm not having it, I jump gates. It's just a lot going on. I'm not with all that. So, he needs to go be 23 and sling pen*s cause I can't…."
What She Wants In A Man:
"I would say tatted up, look like he got out of jail, but got a job. Oh, like just got out, you know, fresh out of jail. Tattoos, all of that, just se*y but a real job. Everybody is on this mission. I'm a science project, everybody's determined to get the prize. I'm just praying that God delivers him, like UPS, soon!"
And Of Course, Tamar:
"Well, all I want to say about the situation is, people are gonna always look at K like a bully. I always win arguments. Just because I win them doesn't mean I start them. I win them, okay? The thing with this situation is, I have never come for this lady first, ever. Never have come for her first. But every time she has commented, I have come back. But I'm the bully? I think this recent time people have started to see: 'K isn't saying anything to you.' For you to be half of a 100, there's no reason that you still should be coming for me. I'm a newbie. You've had five records deals. This is your second album. Your first album debuted at 127. There's no reason that you should be coming for me. I'm sitting back, I'm minding my business. Everybody know…that my mouth is slick. But I'm gonna cut it to you and tell you like it is. I have done nothing to this woman. I even bought her album, I've been very supportive. Tamar is very quick to go and throw shade at people then run and hide her hands. Excuses for everything. She can go and pick on Nicki. She had the nerve to say that Beyoncé wasn't pregnant. You never come for the queen. You don't come for Beyoncé like that. But she did. She comes for everybody, but then when you attack her or defend yourself, you're a bully. That's not how it goes in America. I don't need Vince. I'm not scared of nobody. I'mma say what the f**k I feel. And if you come for me–you're one big joke, its easy for me to tell you about yourself. Did I like her album? It was cute. Some songs. I have songs I listen to when I wake up. I like the "Pieces" record, I think that's a great record. I'm not a hater when it comes to music. But you won't get on there and throw shade at me because you think you're high and mighty. Then when I defend myself, I'm the big bad wolf. Until you get your vocal chords in order, don't come for me. We have NEVER met, that's whats so crazy! No one will come for me. The only person that will come for me, is Jesus to take me home to glory. No one will come for me and think I'm not gonna say anything. As long as you stop, I stop. I told everybody to support you and buy your album because it's R&B. Who continued it? Who continued this fight? Shut up and sing!"
Well, there you have it. Watch K's full interview on the next page and let us know what you think of her comments.

McConnell seeks to capitalize on attacks on wife
FRANKFORT, Ky. It isn't Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell who comes out swinging in his first TV ad of his 2014 re-election campaign. It's his wife, former U.S. Labor Secretary Elaine Chao.
"You've seen the ads attacking my husband," Chao, speaking directly into the camera, says in a spot that's set to begin airing across Kentucky on Thursday. "As Mitch McConnell's wife, I've learned to expect them. Now, far left special interests are also attacking my ethnicity, even attacking Mitch's patriotism because he's married to me. That's how low some people will stoop."
The ad is the McConnell campaign's response to what it calls "racial slurs" made against Chao and to a series of TV spots aired in recent weeks by the liberal group Progress Kentucky, which has attacked McConnell for his pro-gun position.
It's an example of how the 71-year-old McConnell, facing a prospective challenge from actress Ashley Judd, is taking no chances even though the general election is more than 18 months away.
The early ad buy - a TV spot and an accompanying radio ad - has caught the attention of Kentucky Democrats, who say McConnell must be worried about his chances.
Kentucky Democratic Party Chairman Dan Logsdon charged that beginning an ad campaign so early "is an unprecedented admission of fear."
"Kentuckians would prefer to see our leaders working to solve the nation's problems instead of spending all their energy campaigning in non-election years," Logsdon said in a statement.
University of Louisville political scientist Laurie Rhodebeck said she doubts McConnell is scared.
"Concerned might be a better way to put it," Rhodebeck said. "Given some of the commentary that's been in the media the last couple of months, he'd sound foolish if he said he wasn't concerned. He's a good politician. He wants people to think he's taking his job seriously."
Chao makes that point in the ad.
"Mitch works his heart out to protect Kentucky from Washington's bad ideas because Mitch loves Kentucky. We love Kentucky. The meanest personal attacks can never change that," says Chao, who was labor secretary under President George W. Bush.
Rhodebeck said the rationale for the early ad also could be "to frighten the opposition, to perhaps convince supporters, especially financial backers, that McConnell's still got what it takes and that's where their money should go."
McConnell can easily afford the ad buy that his campaign manager, Jesse Benton, said runs into "the six figures." McConnell has a hefty campaign bank account, having already raised more than $10 million. In his last campaign finance report, he reported having $7.4 million on hand. That financial cushion gives McConnell the option to define himself early in TV spots or to respond to opponents.
In this case, McConnell is seeking to capitalize on a liberal group's recent mocking reference to his wife's Asian heritage.
"This woman has the ear of (at)McConnellPress - she's his (hash)wife," the group Progress Kentucky tweeted on Feb. 14. "May explain why your job moved to (hash)China!"
McConnell called the tweets "racial slurs" and "the ultimate outrage."

Keywords: Cabin
Beautiful mountain setting. Cabin with charm and convenience to area attractions, shopping, hiking, skiing, snow tubing.
Rushing creek (120 creek front) and beautiful yard.
I am a native of Maggie Valley. I have always loved riding by your cabin dreaming that I would someday have a 'Rock' cabin to call my own. We were so excited to find your cabin available. We had a great time relaxing in your very cozy cabin. The kitchen is fabulous, all the comforts of home - you thought of every detail. Thanks for phone & wireless service. My son loved the creek, red bridge and throwing stones in the water. We enjoyed the peacefullness of Eagles Rest. Thank you, again.
What can we say except we absolutely love this place! It is so close to so much adventure and sightseeing, yet each time we entered that driveway it seemed we were in our own little world. Lovely decor, inviting, warm, peaceful and relaxing! This wonderful home was roomy and had all the amenities we needed, and more. It was spotless and very cozy and comfortable. We enjoyed it all - the barbecue house, rocking on the front porch, the beautiful landscape and flowers in bloom, the fire pit, the hot tub, and of course the constant sound of the rushing creek just soothes the soul. For two sisters and our husbands this was a little corner of heaven that made it a perfect getaway! Pat & Jim, we thank you, and we hope we can come back soon!
I wish I could sleep to the sound of trickling water and the birds tweet in a quiet and beautiful weather
I've achieved my wish when I lived in this cottage week
Everything was just fine, the kitchen is clean and full kitchenware
Very clean bathrooms, as well as placemats ...
I wish I could re-experience again
Sorry to thinness language, I do not speak English well, here I am enlisted to translate Google
This is really an idyllic rental. The elevation and the creek proximity kept us cool. Jacket and pants weather in the mornings. The barbecue shelter was great. We grilled some burgers and ate dinner in the midst of a nice thunderstorm in the late evening. Far enough away from everything, but just a couple of minutes to get to whatever you need.
The stone cottage is so inviting, warm and cozy. We were 2 couples celebrating our anniversaries and it was perfect! Both the king and queen size beds were very comfortable, the bathrooms are newly renovated, but most of all the outside ambiance was inviting and serene with a creek, red bridge and a hammock. It is a location that is close to many places, so we had time for shopping, dining, a musical concert, hiking and just enjoying the beauty. We will return again!
Very nice place to stay. Clean and cozy.
I was very pleased with our stay at the Eagles Rest! It snowed while we were there and just made the whole yard look like a Winter Wonderland. The river in the yard is beautiful, the house is very clean and charming, it just felt like home. The Gazebo with the hot tub were perfect for the cold nights, and was especially nice for us to be in while the snow was falling around us. Mr. & Mrs. Ferguson were very nice and helpful during our entire stay! I would highly recommend this property to anyone staying in the Maggie Valley area! The ski slopes are just a short drive up the mountain. I hope to make a trip back in the Spring or Summer because the kids would really enjoy playing in the creek on warm days :)
On Cataloochee mountain between skiing and tubing. Beautiful Setting with Rustic Elegance, 120' of Rushing Creek, Mountain View, Ski Slope, Snow Tubing, Shopping, Hiking, Biking, Screened Barbeque House, Lounge in the Hammock, Make S'Mores in Fire Pit, easy drive on I-40 to Asheville (Biltmore Estate), Cherokee, Blue Ridge Parkway, Smoky Mountain Railway.
