Volleyball Locker Room Photo Gallery
Athletic Training Room Photo Gallery
Student Athlete Lounge Photo Gallery
When McDonald Gymnasium opened its doors in 1958, it immediately became a campus landmark. It was the home of basketball, volleyball and high school sports, as well as the site of commencement ceremonies, concerts and a host of other events. Lamar University Athletics had offices in the facility and entertainment legends from Isaac Hayes to Chuck Mangione performed there.
But the real reason McDonald Gym means so much to Lamar University is Dr. F.L. McDonald, Lamar's fourth president, in whose honor the building was named. Dr. McDonald was a popular and trail-blazing president. He was in the president's office from 1952 until 1967, making him the longest-serving president in Lamar's history.
When it came time to honor the man who held a keen love for athletic competition, it was fitting that the building chosen would be the epicenter of athletic competition on campus. Those who knew Dr. Mac were indeed fortunate.
In 2006, McDonald Gym received a significant renovation as part of the creation of the $6.2 million Sheila Umphrey Recreational Sports Center. Today it is the competition venue for Lamar University Volleyball and features a high performance maple wood floor and retractable spectator seating for 500 fans. The facility also includes:
Coaches offices for Cross Country, Tennis, Track & Field, and Volleyball
Separate locker and shower facilities for Lamar University's Cross Country, Tennis, Track & Field, and Volleyball teams, event officials, coaches, and visiting teams
Athletic Training Suite which includes Athletic Training staff offices, an examination room, evaluation, treatment and rehabilitation areas and hydrotherapy room
Student Athlete Lounge with couches, massage chair, flat-panel television and vending machines
Student Athlete Study Center with four private study rooms, a Computer Lab with 14 computer work stations, and the offices for two Athletic Academic Affairs coordinators

2008 Nissan 350Z Base 3.5L V6 from North America
Nothing at all. Have to be careful because the black "rubber" material that is used on the door panel is subject to scratches (I always look at pre-owned vehicles to identify wear and tear spots before I buy one for myself).
General Comments:
I previously drove a 2003 Ford Mustang GT with the 4.6L 260HP V-8. The car was certainly fast at the time with estimated 0-60 runs around 5.4 seconds. I always enjoyed the low end grunt of the old single cam V-8, so it took me some time to become accustomed to the revvy nature of the dual intake, high output 3.5L V-6.
I think both cars were equally fast with an edge to the 350Z for having 306 HP, shorter wheel base, two seat sports car.
The Z is a blast to drive, and it finally seems that the 2007-2008 cars have addressed all of their reliability shortcomings of previous years. I am slightly over 12k and have had no problems whatsoever.
Drivers be warned that there is absolutely no cargo space, but considering you don't buy a car like this for that reason, I give what space it has as a 2 seater about an 8 on a scale from 1 to 10.
The handling and steering is amazing, taking whatever I throw at it. Some report that the V-6 becomes a bit harsh as you close in on 7,000 RPM, but I haven't experienced this at all. The short throw 6 speed is incredibly easy to row, and snicks into each gear with great precision.
I highly recommend this car to anyone shopping for a now used 350Z, since the introduction of the new 370. 2007-2008 cars feature the VQ35VHR motor, which gets noticeably more power with about 70% new parts versus the 2003-2006 motor.
Xenon HID headlights and 18" rims on the base car are my favorite features, as well as, gorgeous San Marino Blue.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Having won five of their last six games, it seems things are starting to click for the Starkville Academy Volunteers.
On Saturday, the team demonstrated its chemistry as the Volunteers defeated the Raiders of Oak Hill Academy 56-37.
"It feels good to get the win," SA senior Brandon Sharp said. "I'm a senior so everybody kind of looks to me as a leader. It is my job to go out there and make sure we are all OK and doing what we need to do to insure the win."
Starkville Academy coach Mark Alexander echoes his player's thoughts on how good wining feels.
"They did much better (Saturday)," Alexander said. "We gave up 14 points in the first quarter and I wasn't too happy about that, but things turned around in the second. We went small and pressed them full court. We felt like we could extend the lead that way and we did. It was good to see things clicking."
The teams appeared evenly matched during the first 8 minutes of play. As the clock ticked down with Raiders and Volunteers separated by only one point with Starkville Academy leading 15-14.
Alexander did go to a small lineup during the second period allowing the Vols to create some mismatches and provided them the opportunity to extend their lead to 35-20 heading into halftime.
"We knew coming in that we could create matchup problems for people with our speed and quickness and that was our game plan coming in," Alexander said. "We were just looking for whoever had the mismatch and that is what we went with."
Returning to the court following the break, the Volunteers appeared determined to continue their quest for victory. Scoring 14 of its own during the period, Starkville Academy's defense held Oak Hill to 10 points as they carried a 49-30 lead into the final moments of competition.
The fourth period provided the lowest scoring of the entire game as both teams remained in the single digits. The Raiders scored four, while Starkville Academy posted another seven to clinch the victory and move to 10-8 overall.
Seeing his team win meant a great deal to Alexander, but watching them score means even more as the team prepares to move forward in the season.
"I told the guys that it was good to see us score some points," Alexander said. "We have struggled to score lately, so scoring like this gives us some confidence heading forward."
Carnail Minor was the leading Volunteer with 21 points and he also pulled down eight rebounds. Just behind Minor was Sharp who posted 12 points, while providing seven assists.
Oak Hill was led by a pair of Raiders as Riley Pierce and Chance Wilson both scored nine, followed closely by Curt Huffman with seven.
Girls Game
Starkville Academy 57,
Oak Hill 25
With a 26-0 record, Starkville Academy has gotten used to the sweet taste of victory.
On Saturday, the Lady Volunteers got to enjoy the fruits of their labors one more time as they knocked off the the Lady Raiders.
"We intended for this to be a team win (Saturday)," Starkville Academy coach Glenn Schmidt said. "This was serious business to us. We respect them as a team and I think that is why we came so hard at the beginning."
As usual, Starkville Academy jumped out to a fast start dominating on both sides of the ball. With 3:26 remaining in the first quarter, the Lady Vols held an 8-3 lead, and those three points would be the only ones Oak Hill would produce that period.
While holding the Lady Raiders scoreless, Starkville Academy put up 14 additional points before closing the period with a 22-3 lead.
Things did not change much during the second period. Again the Lady Vols held Oak Hill to single-digit scoring, while posting 18 of their own to lead 40-7 heading into the locker rooms for a halftime break.
With the Lady Vols holding a convincing lead, the referees enacted the mercy rule meaning the remainder of the game would be played with a continuously running clock. As the time ticked away, Starkville Academy extended its lead by 30 points to enter the final period ahead 49-19.
The clock continued to run during the fourth making for a short period of action. Oak Hill posted six points, while Starkville Academy tacked on an additional eight to secure their 26th straight victory of the season.
"We just did what it took (Saturday)," Schmidt said. "We followed them up and down the court. We made open shots. We played a complete game and I am so pleased with the effort we gave."
Maggie Proffitt led the Lady Vols with 22 points and grabbed nine rebounds. Tiffany Huddleston and Anna Leigh Little rounded out the top three scorers. Huddleston posted 13 points, five assists and brought down three rebounds, while Little produced 11 points, eight rebounds and two assists.
Shay Atkins led the way for the Lady Raiders with 11 points and seven rebounds.
Starkville Academy returns to action Tuesday when East Rankin comes to town.View more articles in:

The fourth lecture in Dr Rowan Williams' Gifford Lecture series, "Making representations: religious faith and the habits of language", was given on Monday 11 November 2013 at the University of Edinburgh.

As the huge media coverage of internet abuse has made clear (not least the appalling targeting of women on Twitter and other social media platforms), when public conversation is debased, we all suffer - though those at the sharp end suffer most.
Given that the Church of Scotland, like all major Christian denominations, conducts a good chunk of its internal business in public these days (with the boundary between what is 'internal' and what is 'external' increasingly stretched), media and communications can no longer be thought of - if it ever could - as a specialist function alone.
As previously reported on Ekklesia, Professor Jolyon Mitchell from Edinburgh University delivered his inaugural lecture entitled 'How can weapons be turned into art? How can swords be transformed into ploughshares?' back in September last year. It is now available to view here on YouTube, and very well worth watching.
Church leaders have mostly been ducking for cover as the row over Occupy London on the steps of St Paul's has ratcheted up in recent days. The silence from Lambeth Palace until recently has been deafening.

Community order for UKIP's Cambridgeshire county councillor Peter Lagoda over benefit fraud
Posted: March 28, 2014|
A UKIP councillor who admitted benefit fraud has been sentenced to a community order.
Cllr Peter Lagoda, who was elected to Cambridgeshire County Council in May, was made subject to the order for 12 months at Peterborough Crown Court after admitting making a false representation to gain benefits.
Lagoda had claimed he lived in South Beach, Cambridgeshire, when instead he shared a property in Wisbech with then girlfriend and now wife, Maria Lagoda.
She was also sentenced to a 12-month community order after admitting six counts of failing to notify the authorities of a change in circumstances.
It had been alleged the councillor and his wife falsely claimed £11,565 in income support, £2,346 in council tax and £10,949 in housing benefit.
Lagoda was suspended from UKIP when he was charged but remains a councillor, representing Wisbech South.
The pair initially denied all the charges, which related to the period between June 2008 and November 2010, but changed their pleas last month.

Historically, once the person was attached to the chair, various cycles (differing in voltage and duration) of alternating current would be passed through the condemned's body, in order to fatally damage the internal organs (including the brain). The first jolt of electrical current was designed to cause immediate unconsciousness and brain death; the second one was designed to cause fatal damage to the vital organs. Death was frequently caused by electrical overstimulation of the heart.
The electric chair was first used in 1890. It was used by more than 25 states throughout the 20th century, acquiring nicknames such as Sizzlin' Sally, Old Smokey, Old Sparky, Yellow Mama, and Gruesome Gertie. From 1924 to 1976, the electric chair was used as method of capital punishment in the Philippines. In the late 20th century, the electric chair was removed as a form of execution in many U.S. states, and its use in the 21st century is very infrequent.
Electrocution is currently an optional form of execution in the U.S. states of Alabama, Florida, South Carolina and Virginia, though they allow the prisoner to choose lethal injection as an alternative method. In the states of Kentucky and Tennessee, the electric chair has been retired except for those whose capital crimes were committed prior to legislated dates in 1998 [Kentucky March 31, 1998, Tennessee December 31, 1998] and who choose electrocution. In both states, inmates who do not choose electrocution or inmates who committed their crimes after the designated date are put to death by lethal injection. The electric chair is an alternate form of execution approved for potential use in Illinois and Oklahoma if other forms of execution are found unconstitutional in the state at the time of execution. In Florida, the condemned may choose death by electrocution, but the default is lethal injection.
On February 8, 2008, the Nebraska Supreme Court determined that execution via the electric chair was "cruel and unusual punishment" under the State's constitution. This brought executions of this type to an end in Nebraska, the only remaining state to retain it as its sole method of execution.
Electric-chair is sometimes used in publications by organizations of people with disabilities to mean "electric-powered wheelchair".
Alfred P. Southwick developed the idea of using electric current as a method of execution when he saw an intoxicated man die after touching an exposed terminal on a live generator. As Southwick was a dentist accustomed to performing procedures on subjects in chairs, his electrical device appeared in the form of a chair.
In 1887, after a particularly gruesome and bloody hanging was reported, New York State established a committee to determine a new, more humane system of execution to replace hanging. Neither Thomas Edison nor Nikola Tesla—as part of the War of Currents—wanted their electrical system to be chosen because they feared that consumers would not want in their homes the same ("dangerous") type of electricity used to kill criminals.
The first electric chair was made by Harold P. Brown. Brown was an employee of Thomas Edison, hired for the purpose of researching electrocution and for the development of the electric chair. Since Brown worked for Edison, and Edison promoted Brown's work, the development of the electric chair is often erroneously credited to Edison himself. Brown's design was based on use of Nikola Tesla's alternating current (AC), which was marketed by George Westinghouse and was then just emerging as the rival to Edison's less transport-efficient direct current (DC), which was further along in commercial development. The decision to use AC was partly driven by Edison's claims that AC was more lethal than DC. However, at the very high currents used for the device, which could be as high as ten amperes, the difference in lethality between the two types of currents was approximately a factor of two, which was marginal.
In order to prove that AC electricity was dangerous and therefore better for executions, Brown and Edison, who promoted DC electricity, publicly killed many animals with AC for the press in order to ensure that alternating current was associated with electrical death. It was at these events that the term "electrocution" was coined. The term "electrocution" originally referred only to electrical execution (from which it is a portmanteau word), and not to accidental electrical deaths. However, since no English word was available for the latter process, with the new rise of commercial electricity, the word "electrocution" eventually took over as a description of all circumstances of electrical death. Edison tried to introduce the verb "to Westinghouse" for denoting the art of executing persons with AC current. Most of their experiments were conducted at Edison's West Orange, New Jersey, laboratory in 1888.
The demonstrations on electrocution apparently had their intended effects, and the AC electric chair was adopted by the committee in 1889.
When it came to building the actual state execution device, the Westinghouse company refused to sell an AC generator for the purpose, so Edison and Brown used subterfuge in order to acquire the AC generator. They pretended that the Westinghouse AC generator was for use in a university, and had it dropshipped to New York through a country in South America.
The first person to be executed via the electric chair was William Kemmler in New York's Auburn Prison on August 6, 1890; the 'state electrician' was Edwin Davis. The first 17-second passage of current through Kemmler caused unconsciousness, but failed to stop his heart and breathing. The attending physicians, Dr. Edward Charles Spitzka and Dr. Charles F. Macdonald, came forward to examine Kemmler. After confirming Kemmler was still alive, Spitzka reportedly called out, "Have the current turned on again, quick — no delay."
The generator needed time to re-charge, however. In the second attempt, Kemmler was shocked with 2,000 volts. Blood vessels under the skin ruptured and bled and his body caught fire.
In all, the entire execution took approximately eight minutes. Westinghouse later commented: "They would have done better using an axe." A reporter who witnessed it also said it was "an awful spectacle, far worse than hanging."
The first woman to be executed in the electric chair was Martha M. Place, executed at Sing Sing Prison on March 20, 1899. It was adopted by Ohio (1897), Massachusetts (1900), New Jersey (1906) and Virginia (1908), and soon became the prevalent method of execution in the U.S., replacing hanging (although it saw very little use in the Western states, with the gas chamber the more popular alternative to hanging there). It remained so until the mid-1980s, when lethal injection became widely accepted as an easier method for conducting judicial executions.
In 1900, Charles Justice was a prison inmate at the Ohio State Penitentiary in Columbus. While performing cleaning detail duties in the death chamber, he devised an idea to improve the efficiency of the restraints on the electric chair. Justice designed metal clamps to replace the leather straps, thus allowing for the inmate to be secured more tautly and minimize the problem of burnt flesh. Justice's improvements were implemented and he was subsequently paroled from prison. The ironically-named convict's fortunes took a turn for the worse eleven years later, when he was convicted in a robbery/murder and returned to prison under a death sentence. On November 9, 1911, he died in the same electric chair that he had helped to improve.
A record was set on July 13, 1928 when seven men were executed, one after another, in the electric chair at Kentucky State Penitentiary in Eddyville. In 1942, six Germans convicted of espionage in the Quirin Case were put to death in one day in the District of Columbia jail electric chair.
Notable deaths by electric chair include Leon Czolgosz, Giuseppe Zangara, Sacco and Vanzetti, Hans Schmidt, Bruno Hauptmann, Lepke Buchalter, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, Charles Starkweather, and (post-'Furman') Ted Bundy.
The electrocution of housewife Ruth Snyder at Sing Sing on January 12, 1928, for the murder of her husband was made famous when a newspaper reporter smuggled a hidden camera into the death chamber and photographed her in the electric chair as the current was turned on. The photograph was a front-page sensation the following morning, and remains one of the most famous newspaper photos of all time.
After 1966 electrocutions ceased for a time in the USA, but the method continued in the Philippines. A well-publicized triple execution took place in May 1972, when Jaime Jose, Basilio Pineda and Edgardo Aquino were electrocuted for the 1967 abduction and gang-rape of the young actress Maggie dela Riva.
On May 25, 1979, John Arthur Spenkelink became the first electrocuted person after the Gregg v. Georgia decision by the Supreme Court of the United States in U.S. in 1976. He was the first person to be executed in the USA in this manner since 1966. However, the last person to be involuntarily executed via the electric chair was Lynda Lyon Block on May 10, 2002 in Alabama.
A number of states still allow the condemned person to choose between electrocution and lethal injection. In all, nine inmates nationwide, four in Virginia, three in South Carolina and one in both Arkansas and Tennessee have been executed having opted for electrocution over lethal injection. The last use of the chair was on June 20, 2008, when James Earl Reed was electrocuted in South Carolina. He elected this method. Before that, it had not been used since September 12, 2007, when Daryl Holton was electrocuted in Tennessee. He also elected for execution by electric chair.
Other countries appear to have contemplated using the method, sometimes for special reasons. Minutes of the British War Cabinet released in 2006 show that in December 1942, Winston Churchill proposed that Adolf Hitler — if caught — should be summarily executed in an electric chair, obtained from the USA. 'This man is the mainspring of evil. Instrument — electric chair, for gangsters, no doubt available on lease-lend'.
Skin is inevitably burned and prison workers have to separate the burnt skin from the electrodes. The initial flow of electric current may cause the person to lose control over many bodily functions, including muscle movement, urination and defecation. To mitigate this, alterations to modern electric chairs include padding and an inertia style retractable seat belt.
The use of the electric chair has declined as legislators sought what they believed to be more humane methods of execution. Lethal injection became the most popular method, helped by newspaper accounts of botched electrocutions in the early 1980s.
The electric chair has also been criticized because of several instances in which the subjects were not instantly killed, but had to be subjected to multiple electric shocks. This led to a call for ending of the practice because many see it as cruel and unusual punishment Trying to address such concerns, Nebraska introduced a new electrocution protocol in 2004, which called for administration of a 15-second-long application of 2,450 volts of electricity; after a 15-minute wait, an official then checks for signs of life. New concerns raised regarding the 2004 protocol resulted, in April 2007, in the ushering in of the current Nebraska protocol, calling for a 20-second-long application of 2,450 volts of electricity. (Prior to the 2004 protocol change, an initial eight-second application of 2,450 volts was administered, followed by a one-second pause, then a 22-second application at 480 volts. After a 20-second break, the cycle was repeated three more times.)
There have been incidents of a person's head on fire; or burning transformers, and of a chair breaking down after the initial application and letting the condemned wait in pain on the floor of the execution room while the chair was fixed. In 1946, the electric chair failed to execute Willie Francis, who reportedly shrieked "Stop it! Let me breathe!" as he was being executed. It turned out that the portable electric chair had been improperly set up by an intoxicated trustee. A case was brought before the U.S. Supreme Court (Francis v. Resweber), with lawyers for the condemned arguing that although Francis did not die, he had, in fact, been executed. The argument was rejected on the basis that re-execution did not violate the double jeopardy clause of the 5th Amendment of the US Constitution, and Francis was returned to the electric chair and successfully executed in 1947.
As of 2008, the only places in the world which still reserve the electric chair as an option for execution are the U.S. states of Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia. (Oklahoma and Illinois laws provide for its use should lethal injection ever be held to be unconstitutional.) Inmates in the other states must select it or lethal injection. In the state of Florida, on July 8, 1999, Allen Lee Davis convicted of murder was executed in the Florida electric chair "Old Sparky". Davis' face was bloodied and photographs taken, which were later posted on the internet. The 1997 execution of Pedro Medina created controversy when flames burst from the inmate's head. Lethal injection is now, as of 2008, the primary method of execution in the state of Florida. On February 15, 2008, the Nebraska Supreme Court declared execution by electrocution to be "cruel and unusual punishment" prohibited by the Nebraska Constitution.
In 1996, Georgia state legislator Doug Teper proposed the guillotine as a replacement for the electric chair as the state's method of execution to enable convicts to act as organ donors. The proposal was not adopted.

Military Programs
Founded in 1890, Post University has been a pioneer in providing educational benefits to military personnel since 1976. With the help of faculty and staff who also have served as part of our nation's Armed Forces, the Waterbury, Connecticut-based university has designed its current-day military program to meet the needs of those who have served, are serving or want to serve their country.
We took the time to learn what military personnel need to be successful in this kind of program, and then made sure we could provide it. In fact, the Post University Military Program is directed by a retired Lt. Col. in the Army, who is supported by others who've served our country. Simply put, Post University is deeply committed to honoring the service of our nation's military personnel – past, present and future.
Since Post University is a traditional, accredited University with an excellent online program, we can meet the needs of military personnel in flexible ways. Service men and women who want to earn a college degree from an accredited university have the option of:

Tenant Beats La Crosse Landlord
A La Crosse landlord is probably still a little sore after getting pummeled by his tenant. Cops say the landlord went to collect rent from his tenant Demonz McClain at a place at about 9th and Vine. The two men got into an argument and McClain apparently slugged the landlord pretty good in the face. Broke his nose, fractured his cheekbone, and gave him a black eye. Not the first time the landlord has had a problem with McClain, apparently. He tells cops, earlier this month, McClain threatened to cut him with a knife, sticke him with an ice pick and shove a toilet plunger up his rear-end. McClain faces a couple of felonies.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Additionally, when interpreting a legal document, courts are very often interested in understanding the document as its authors did and their motivations for creating it; as a result, the courts have cited the Preamble for evidence of the history, intent and meaning of the Constitution as it was understood by the Founders. Although revolutionary in some ways, the Constitution maintained many common law concepts (such as habeas corpus, trial by jury, and sovereign immunity) and courts feel that the Founders' perceptions of the legal system that the Constitution created (i.e., the interaction between what it changed and what it kept from the British legal system) are uniquely important because of the authority "the People" invested them with to create it. Along with evidence of the understandings of the men who debated and drafted the Constitution at the Constitutional Convention, the courts are also interested in the way that government officials have put into practice the Constitution's provisions, particularly early government officials, although the courts reserve to themselves the final authority to determine the Constitution's meaning. However, this focus on historical understandings of the Constitution is sometimes in tension with the changed circumstances of modern society from the late 18th-century society that drafted the Constitution; courts have said that the Constitution must be interpreted in light of these changed circumstances. All of these considerations of the political theory behind the Constitution have prompted the Supreme Court to articulate a variety of special rules of construction and principles for interpreting it. For example, the Court's notions of the purposes behind the Constitution have led it to express a preference for broad interpretations of individual freedoms.
On the other hand, courts will not interpret the Preamble to give the government powers that are not articulated elsewhere in the Constitution. One example of the limits of the meaning of the Preamble is United States v. Kinnebrew Motor Co., 8 F. Supp. 535 (W.D. Okla. 1934). There, the defendants were a car manufacturer and dealership indicted for a criminal violation of the National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA). The statute had been passed by Congress to cope with the Great Depression, and one of its provisions purported to give to the President authority to fix "the prices at which new cars may be sold. The dealership, located in Oklahoma City, had sold an automobile to a customer (also from Oklahoma City) for less than the price for new cars fixed pursuant to NIRA. Substantively, the case was about whether the transaction in question constituted "interstate commerce" that Congress could regulate pursuant to the Commerce Clause. Although the government argued that the scope of the Commerce Clause included this transaction, it also argued that the Preamble's statement that the Constitution was created to "promote the general Welfare" should be understood to permit Congress to regulate transactions such as the one in the case, particularly in the face of an obvious national emergency like the Great Depression. The court, however, dismissed this argument as erroneous, instead insisting that the only relevant issue was whether the transaction that prompted the indictment actually constituted "interstate commerce" under the Supreme Court's precedents interpreting that clause of the Constitution.
Domestically, the federal government's sovereignty means that it may perform acts such as entering into contracts or accepting bonds, which are typical of governmental entities but not expressly provided for in the Constitution or laws. Similarly, the federal government, as an attribute of sovereignty, has the power to enforce those powers that are granted to it (e.g., the power to "establish Post Offices and Post Roads includes the power to punish those who interfere with the postal system so established). The Court has recognized the federal government's supreme power over those limited matters entrusted to it. Furthermore, the federal government exercises this supreme power not as a unitary entity, but instead via the three coordinate branches of the government (legislative, executive, and judicial), each of which has its own prescribed powers and limitations under the Constitution.
Since the Preamble declares the Constitution to have been created by the "People of the United States", "there may be places within the jurisdiction of the United States that are no part of the Union. The following examples help demonstrate the meaning of this distinction:

10 Great Tips for Client Events
A well-planned gathering can help your firm develop client relationships and strengthen ties with strategic partners.
Here are 10 tips to think about when hosting client events.
For the full article, click here
Many firms prefer relatively small events, usually up to 50. But remember that you also want to encourage clients to bring guests.
Reston, Va., planner Miye Wire regularly invites clients and their family and friends to a cherry blossom viewing and picnic in nearby Washington. The first time they went, the group took a chartered bus and everyone received Japanese bento boxes for lunch.
"We had no idea if anyone was going to register for the event and were overwhelmed when almost 90 people tried to sign up," Wire says. "We had to close off registration once the bus was full, and pledged to charter two buses for the next year."
To enhance turnout, be sure to send reminder emails beforehand to ensure everyone who RSVP'd shows up.
Seattle-based planning firm Brighton Jones held a sit-down dinner specifically for Microsoft alumni, pouring local wines and featuring food prepared by a famous Seattle chef.
Los Angeles-based Aspiriant decided to host a reunion dinner for a group of clients who had all worked together at a single technology firm several years earlier - and who had, along the way, become the firm's best referral network.
"The event was a huge success," Aspiriant CEO Rob Francais says. "It was an opportunity for the founder to say thanks to the management team."
A shared activity helps clients and guests get to know each other better. RegentAtlantic in Morristown, N.J., has taken groups of clients on community service outings. Other firms have invited clients to spend an evening at a cooking school, learning how to make pasta or ethnic dishes.
Brighton Jones partnered with the Microsoft Alumni Foundation to bring together former employees for its dinner event.
EP Wealth, meanwhile, works with the Distinguished Speakers Series in Manhattan Beach, Calif. The series finds big-name speakers and secures sponsorships from multiple organizations, which take turns hosting the intimate gatherings before the main talk. (After rubbing shoulders with EP Wealth's guests, Kennedy headed downstairs to the auditorium's main stage to speak before 2,000 people.)
Brighton Jones has also held a wine- tasting event with Drew Bledsoe, the former New England Patriots quarterback who now owns the Doubleback Winery in Walla Walla, Wash.
Give guests something to take home. While clients at the Bledsoe event could buy Doubleback wines, other firms have given away bottles of wine or other trinkets to guests.
Hold the event somewhere upscale and comfortable. Brighton Jones held the Bledsoe event at the home of the planning firm's founder, Charles Brighton.
"We wanted to bring our clients and their guests together and provide them with a comfortable way to meet one another," says the firm's marketing manager, Christina Sylvester.
Events can be pricey, so you want to make sure your guests enjoy them. Survey clients before organizing an event to find out what would interest them. Afterward, send out surveys to attendees to gauge an event's success.
Sometimes you can make an event do double duty.
In January, RegentAtlantic invited guests to a talk by Washington analyst Greg Valliere, chief political strategist of the Potomac Research Group.
The large gathering, attended by 300 clients, also gave the firm an opportunity to unveil its new logo and website redesign.
Mainly, the firm wants clients to know "we care about them and appreciate them," says one of RegentAtlantic's partners, Brian Kazanchy, "but also that we are a first-class organization."

For me, the only reason I go to stonemason's store to buy his fantastic buildings….He is truly gifted at making them
But i'm cheap at the moment so I didn't even look. I saw all his stuff during the PA sale Don't even think I've used my forest in a real render yet LOL
Sadly, me too. I didn't bite during the PA sale and wish I had. I really love the realism of his work, but if things aren't on sale, I have a tough time paying full price.

The Premier Blog of the West
For The Home On The Range
Wall to wall and floor to ceiling, these companies can give your home that upscale (or rustic) Western feel.
Starry, Starry Rags
Home furnishings designer Mike Ragan has come a long way from the set of cowboy pillows he made using his grandmother's Singer sewing machine in 1990. The Rags designer now makes everything a homeowner or decorator could want when it comes to Western chic. His textiles are known for their unique patterns, especially his hair-on-hide rugs, which bring the natural textures and colors of the outdoors inside in contemporary designs like Stars Light (above). Rugs such as this have graced the floors of high-end homes and upscale hotels alike, including the Four Seasons Resort in Vail, Colorado. And, at times, Ragan's one-of-a-kind works have even been hung on walls to keep the artistic textiles from being walked on. But like the West, Rags is about more than just leather. "You can't have leather covering everything," says Ragan, who employs the aforementioned hair on hide, as well as shearling and combinations of materials, to create a multi-textural take on the West in hues as diverse as tempered mountain grays and cool night-on-the-range blues. 323.346.0690, www.usarags.com; www.mikeraganhome.com. — José R. Ralat
Patient Exposures
Art photographer Jeff Struthers lassos light like a cowboy ropes cattle: Both employ patience before capturing their targets. "I waited more than a year for the perfect sky to photograph an old car in a ravine," says Struthers. "The colorful sky in that image only lasted moments. I watched weather reports. ... If the desired combination of clouds, weather, and sunlight doesn't materialize at the right time of day, I just keep trying." The waiting game has paid off for the photographer, who now owns his own gallery in Elizabeth, Colorado. Purchasing the restored Denver & New Orleans Railroad Section House, Struthers transformed the space into the D&NO Art Gallery, where he displays his diverse collection of works, all emphasizing meticulous attention to light. Also capturing visually stimulating images to be featured at the prestigious Teal Art Gallery in nearby Breckinridge, Struthers is currently working on a book of photos that capture decades-old ranch shops and their cluttered interiors. 303.646.4116, www.jeffstruthersphotography.com. — José R. Ralat
Buffalo Gold
"It began from being an attorney and looking for tax exemptions for agricultural pursuits," says Cecil Miskin, founder of Buffalo Gold Premium Fibers. "I wanted to buy buffalo, and what started as a hobby became a passion."
After nearly a decade of raising his herd in Texas, the lawyer turned rancher was inspired by a local artisan to take on yet another buffalo venture. He began collecting bison fibers from his pasture for the artist to weave into thermal winter accessories, and Buffalo Gold Premium Fibers was born. "Bison down creates air pockets that insulate the bison and keep them alive," Miskin explains. "Our buffalo yarn has those same air pockets that hold body heat, so it keeps you warmer in cold weather."
Eventually Miskin began seeking out additional weavers, growing the line of "herd wear" to include everything from hats and scarves to saddle blankets and rugs, all hand-woven from buffalo yarn. Then it came time to set up shop. When choosing a location for a storefront, he fittingly decided on Goodnight, Texas, founded in 1887 by Charles Goodnight, who helped preserve American bison from being hunted to extinction. And even though it's considered a ghost town, "the tourist traffic is huge," the store owner says. "People are stopping by day and night."
Why has it become such a hit attraction? Buffalo Gold is more than just a store — it's part museum. In addition to offering a wide array of artwork, clothing, and bison leather and horn accessories, the shop also displays historical items, from coins, currency, and stamps depicting the American bison to original editions of books about bison by Theodore Roosevelt.
Not to be outdone, the buffalo clan on site claims direct descendants of Goodnight's herd. 915.247.6601, www.buffalogold.net. — David Hofstede
Post and Beam
The barn has always been a structure of great importance on the homestead, serving as a place to house livestock and grain, and it has become beloved as a symbol of the American West. Which is why, while modern-day barns are just as likely to store tractors and vehicles as cattle and harvested crops, owners often want to keep designs traditional in tribute to the region's heritage.
Focusing on historic authenticity, Sand Creek Post & Beam uses the same types of wood used to build barns for centuries, and the same post-and-beam construction to handcraft load-bearing timber frames, which offer strength and rustic elegance. Not only each frame, but also the windows, doors, and cupolas are all handcrafted at Sand Creek's workshop in Wayne, Nebraska, before being sent to your home, just like the barn kit companies of the early 1900s.
If you would rather have your barn erected by the experts than try to raise it yourself, Sand Creek also has crews across the country to get the job done right. 888.489.1680, www.sandcreekpostandbeam.com. — Holly Henderson

Pretty Little Liars
Pretty Little Liars Producer: Maya Is in Season Finale, Bianca Lawson Says She's Not – What?!
Wait a second! Will Maya (Bianca Lawson) be in the Pretty Little Liars Season 2 finale (Season 2, Episode 25: "UnmAsked") or not?
A few weeks ago, Bianca said in an interview, "I'm not in the finale."
But today, producer Lisa Cochran-Neilan told E! that "viewers can expect to see Alison DiLaurentis (Sasha Pieterse) and Maya in the finale."
Either one of them is lying (which is unlikely at this point), or maybe Bianca is confused about certain scenes she filmed. Could she have shot scenes without knowing that they would be in the last episode of Season 2? If those scenes include Maya being "A," then she had to have known they were in the finale. Possible conclusion: Maya is NOT "A"?
Tell us what you think!
Find out who "A" is on the Pretty Little Liars Season 2 finale on Monday at 8 pm ET/PT on ABC Family.

press release
The MEC for Department of CoGHSTA, Clifford Motsepe would like to warn the people who are residing within the banks of the Limpopo River to be on the lookout for crocodiles and report to the nearest police station or to the Disaster management center toll free line on 0800222111.
This warning follows reports that thousands of crocodiles escaped from the Rakwena Crocodile Farm into the northern parts of Limpopo River during flooding in the past week. A few thousands crocodiles have been recaptured in the dense bush next to the river and in the adjacent areas. Due to mud slides experience after the water level have subsided these crocodiles would camouflage in the mud and are therefore conspicuous during the night because of their red lit eyes.
2013 Limpopo preliminary flood statistics are as follows:
- More than 12 role-players in the Joint Operations Committee (JOC)
- More than 4 NGOs involved
- More than 200 officials from different sectors involved
- 12 deaths recorded
- 2 missing
- 4 rescue choppers
- 877 trapped and rescued
- 19 schools affected
- More than 42 bridges damaged
- More than 1125 households/families affected
- More than 14 roads eroded
- More than 100 villages affected
- More than 22 house collapsed
- More than 240 food parcels and hygiene packs.
Disaster Management is everybody's business. In case of any Disaster, members of the public should report incidents to their district offices or Provincial Disaster Management Centre on the toll free number 0800 222 111.
For missing persons during disaster, members of the public should report the incident to their nearest police stations.

The men beneath the mustaches, stunt artists Christian Russell and Ronnie Shalvis, snag coins, hit bricks, and torch Goombas as they flip off walls and run amuck to the strains of a metal version of the Super Mario Bros. theme song. With over a million and a half views in less than a week, the pair may well be collecting a few real-world coins, too.
It's impressive stuff, though you've got to pity those poor hats. How in the world does the real Mario keep his on his head ?

Customer Reviews of LaCie CloudBox 100GB Network Attached Storage Hard Drive
Safe and Easy1/1/2012
CloudBox is a excellent way to have a safe automated backup. I've been using it for a bit more than two months now and I'm very impressed with the ease of use and the security it offers. The data is automatically backed up on the local drive, then it's encrypted and sent to the cloud. So far, I am most happy with this product.
Very pleased12/18/2011
This is a hybrid of local storage and cloud back up. I've set it up to back up my projects. The device has been working flawlessly so far. I think it's worth the money and is perfect for my needs.
Great Backup Solution11/29/2011
I purchased the CloudBox only recently and I'm already very pleased with it. The most important feature of this device is its ability to connect to the cloud. Backing up data on the cloud is currently the most failsafe solution I'm aware of. So CloudBox in that respect is very convenient. It automatically backs everything up to the cloud, and keeps a local copy. All data is encrypted and password-protected, and can be restored at any time.
Excellent device! Worth it!11/1/2011
So far, I've had an excellent experience with the CloudBox. The setup was very easy and the device pretty much takes care of everything else. The capacity is more than enough for my work archive and the security you get with this device is just hard to beat. The data is backed up in two places simultaneously. One copy is stored and safely encrypted on the local drive and up to ten last versions are stored one on the cloud. Lacie has done a great job designing this amazing storage solution!
Double Backup9/29/2011
I was looking for a reliable storage solution suitable for my business data, that is easy to use and reliable in terms of security. CloudBox came high on my list of possible options. The user interface is very easy to manage. The setup and the backup software is included with the drive. The files can be easily restored from the cloud, which automatically saves up to 10 versions. All that comes at a very affordable price compared to alternative cloud storage solutions.
Impressive storage solution!8/26/2011
I'm impressed with the CloudBox. It offers a super secure backup, which is exactly what I needed. It encrypts and saves my data on the local hard drive and then sends an encrypted copy to the cloud. I simply cannot loose my data with CloudBox. The performance is awesome. Transfer speed on the local network is good. The cloud works well too. The setup was easy. The documentation that comes with the drive is well written. LaCie did a great job with this CloudBox!

It's springtime, and that means bicyclists and pedestrians in Ohio are out enjoying the warm weather. To ensure that a healthy pastime or a two-wheeled commute to or from work doesn't lead to an accident, cyclists and drivers must keep an eye out for each other and follow the rules of the road.
A bill being considered by Ohio legislators would make two important changes in the state's traffic laws, specifically as they relate to bicycles. House Bill 154 would establish a statewide requirement that all cars and trucks keep at least three feet away when passing a bicycle. The bill would also change the law to allow all vehicles, bicycles included, to pass through an intersection if the traffic light is malfunctioning and doesn't detect the stopped bike or motor vehicle.

The Lying Game
The Lying Game Spoilers: Season 2, Episode 7 – Twins Working Together?
What's coming up in The Lying Game spoilers for Season 2, Episode 7? Last week's episode of The Lying Game left a lot hanging in the balance, especially the relationship between Sutton and Emma (Alexandra Chando). Even though Emma double-crossed her twin, Sutton is having a hard time trusting Rebecca (Charisma Carpenter) and her devious plans.
So will the twins start working together in the upcoming episodes? The Lying Game showrunner Chuck Pratt spilled some details about Season 2, Episode 7, saying that Sutton is warming to the idea of joining forces.
"Sutton once said, 'When our embryos split, you got all the heart,'" Chuck told Alloy Entertainment. "How surprised will Sutton be if she finds out she has a little heart of her own?"
And what about Emma's suspicion that Ted (Andy Buckley) is both the father of the twins and Derek's murderer?
"This knowledge will ultimately bring Emma and Sutton closer, and Sutton begins to turn on Rebecca," said Chuck. "There is a new suspect in this murder, and it's Ted — their own father! OMG! Since Rebecca remains a strong suspect, and don't forget Alec, are the pieces finally fitting together? Someone is protecting the secret, and someone is protecting Ted… or many someones…"
The plot thickens!

Hill, the Youth Program Manager of Bike Recycle came together with Veronica Wheeler, Old Spokes Home's apprentice mechanic and decided a class like this was necessary for women cyclists' safety. Repair shops are normally male dominated so their vision is that a class like this will give women a chance to learn the basics of repaid in a comfortable environment.
The class lasts three days and you will learn the bike anatomy, how to fix flats, brakes and gears. The next set of classes is August 18, 25 and 27 from 6:30pm to 9:30pm at Bike Recycle. If you can't make this set of classes there will be more offered until winter.
"It addresses those emergency fixes, something's broke, my shifting isn't right and I don't know why. And it removes, sometimes, the frustration that comes with riding and also removes the intimidation with coming into a bike shop and being able to speak on par by saying, 'Actually my brakes aren't working,' rather than, 'Something's rubbing," said Wheeler.
The class ranges in cost depending on your income and is considered a donation to the nonprofit, Bike Recycle. Contact Veronica Wheeler, email@example.com, to sign up.

Fermented & cultured foods: the surprising health benefits
by Cynthia Lair
Some call them bacteria or bugs but the nice name for this lively population is "flora." More than 500 different species make up the flora in our bodies, weighing in at between 2 and 5 pounds.
Get cultured
Probiotics are good bacteria found in fermented and cultured foods that find a home in our digestive system. These beneficial microorganisms assist with normal digestion and benefit our immune system, even warding off colds.
Recipes from the March 2013 issue
Fermented & flavorful
If you've shied away from sauerkraut, miso, kefir and other seemingly exotic (and probiotic-rich) foods in your cooking because you're not sure how to use them, these recipes offer a great place to start.

Is nutritious delicious?
by Nick Rose, M.S.
When foods are described as "healthy," they often are perceived as the opposite of delicious. Researchers have found that if the exact same food is given to a taste panel with two different names, the panel almost always prefers the plate of "homemade cookies" over the plate of "whole-grain cookies."
Search PCC nutrition facts databases

Pups Strut Their Stuff for the SF SPCA Fashion Show
In true SF SPCA fashion, we're throwing a cocktail party that will make heads turn. You are invited to Dogs on the Catwalk, a fashion show for pets and people, on Friday, May 29.
Whistle Makes a Wireless Device That Monitors Your Dog's Health
Anyone who's been through the agony of losing a pet to a disease that, had it been diagnosed sooner, might have been treatable, may want to take a close look at Whistle.
Rub-A-Dub Your Dog at Green Pawz
Dogs get dirty. That's what they do. And that's eco-friendly pet boutique, pet wash and full service pet salon Green Pawz' mantra. Located in the Haight and conveniently near dog friendly Golden Gate Park, owner Julianne Morales Walsh keeps things local by formulating her own grooming products in Marin and sourcing homegrown organic pet food and treats.
The Modern Canine: Reused Fashion For The Dogs (And Cats)
The term eco-friendly is commonplace, but let's not forget about it's predecessor "reuse." It may not be as buzzy, but it's just as smart. Reuse is the premise of The Modern Canine, a local petwear company delivering distinguished outerwear and accessories for dogs, and a few fun things for cats, all made from discarded fabrics from the fashion industry.
Yoda, a Two Pound Chihuahua, Crowned The World's Ugliest Dog
They say beauty's on the inside. That's never been more true than at the 23rd annual World's Ugliest Dog Contest, which took place last night at the Sonoma-Marin County Fair in Petaluma. 29 dogs, mostly from Northern California, competed for the distinction.
But the winner last night was Yoda, a two-pound Chinese crested-Chihuahua cross, whose owners originally thought she was a rat. Yoda won $1,000 and the 2011 crown as the World's Ugliest Dog.
Check out photos of some of the other uglies above.

Art for Little Whiskers
Think of it as fine art china for your cat. The Whisker-Wide Bowl for cats is handcrafted in the USA, using 100 percent recycled glass. The bowls are shallow and wide, so they won't disrupt your kitty's whiskers while she is eating, and they are attractive enough that they won't disturb your décor when she isn't (if that is your look).

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Sara Kimberley, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 07 June 2012 11:57AM
With the four-day Jubilee celebrations out of the way, Quisma has set up a betting site, www.kicktipp.de/quismacup, for the media industry, for what it considers an "continent-wide orgy of betting, football and patriotism", to mark the start of Euro 2012 tomorrow (8 June).
Players from across Europe can sign up to bet on the scores of each game, which team will score the most goals, and who the eventual champions will be.
The aim is to get the most bets right and beat the hundreds of players who have signed up from across Europe.
Players are able to bet on group stages, although the quarter-finals, semi-finals and the final cannot be bet on until the teams are decided. Betting closes an hour before each match starts.

Poison Ivy
No one would knowingly touch a toxic plant, yet generations of even sharp-eyed outdoors people, not to mention kids wandering in the woods, have picked up the itch. If you know you've been exposed, you may be able to wash off the allergy-inducing urushiol before it's too late. And there are many ways to ease the itching and dry the blisters if you do get poison ivy. But avoidance is by far the best approach — especially if you're one of those people driven nuts by itching.
What's Wrong?
Seven out of ten people are allergic to poison ivy, making this the world's most common allergy. People who have the allergy are sensitive to urushiol, an irritating resin that's found in poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. If you so much as brush one of these plants, urushiol can get on your skin. Within as little as two hours, you'll develop an itchy rash that will have you scratching for three weeks or more. You can also get the rash by touching clothes or other items that have been contaminated with urushiol. And if there's urushiol on your fingers, you'll be spreading the rash around your body every time you scratch.
Rush to Wash
Run for the shower — or the nearest creek, if you're hiking — and wash away the resin before the allergic reaction takes hold. Once you come into contact with poison ivy, the clock starts ticking: You have about 15 minutes to get rid of the urushiol. Use soap and warm water, if they're available. If you have a choice of soaps, use one that does not contain moisturizers. Skip the washcloth, since it can spread the oil around your body.
If it's impossible to wash right away, clean your skin with rubbing alcohol to dissolve the urushiol. If none is handy, you can use any product (or beverage) that contains alcohol.
Alternatively, you can clean off the urushiol with Tecnu, an over-the-counter solvent that's designed especially to remove urushiol from the skin. Tecnu is very effective at removing the resin, but be sure to rinse it off immediately or you risk skin irritation.
A Gem of a Cure
If you know what the jewelweed plant looks like (it has tall, translucent stems and hanging, trumpet-shaped yellow or orange flowers) and there's one growing nearby, crush a handful of the leaves and stems and smear the juice on the affected area. Also known as impatiens and touch-me-not, this plant sometimes grows near poison ivy. There is some research to support the old folk notion that it works against poison ivy rash.
Other Plant Remedies
- Slice a leaf of a fresh aloe vera plant, scoop out the gel, and apply to the affected areas. Aloe is not only for sunburn; its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties make it great for poison ivy as well. Commercial aloe vera gel products are fine if they are made mostly from pure gel from the plant.
- Pick a few leaves from the common lawn weed plantain, wash them, mash them, and apply as a poultice to the affected skin. Plantain contains a chemical (called allantoin) that is anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial.
Stop the Spread
- Wash the clothes you were wearing when you touched poison ivy in the washing machine with warm water. This should get out all the urushiol so the rash won't spread.
- Rinse off your shoes. If you were wearing washable sneakers when you came into contact with the plant, put them through a separate cycle after washing your clothes.
- Dogs and cats don't get poison ivy, but their fur can become coated with urushiol. So if Fido followed you into the woods, you can either avoid him for the next few days or give him a bath in soapy water. The bath is a real chore, however, since you'll have to wear rubber gloves and a raincoat to avoid getting urushiol on your skin.
Attack the Itch
- Use a vinegar compress to dry the rash and relieve itching. Mix a half-cup white vinegar with 1½cups water. Chill in the refrigerator. When you need cool relief, moisten a cloth in the solution and press it onto the rash.
- Dab calamine lotion onto the rash. This classic poison ivy remedy relieves itch and will help dry up blisters. If you find the lotion too runny, just mix in a little cornstarch.
- Soak a cloth in cold milk and hold it against your skin. Cold milk is more soothing to itchy skin than cold water. Exactly why milk relieves itching is unknown, but perhaps it's the milk fat.
- Using a cotton ball, treat your rash with witch hazel, which has a great reputation as a skin soother. The kind that comes in an alcohol solution cools your skin as it evaporates.
- Moisten a plain old tea bag (black or green, it doesn't matter) and apply it to the itchy skin. The tannic acid in tea, which is astringent, helps contract inflamed tissue and relieve the itching.
- Take a warm bath to which you've added a few tablespoons of colloidal oatmeal (like Aveeno) or plain oatmeal ground in a blender. The oatmeal will help dry a rash that has started to blister, and also relieves the itch. Be careful when getting out — oatmeal makes the tub very slippery.
- To dry out the rash, relax in a bath containing Epsom salt. Follow the label directions.
Should I Call the Doctor?
If you're in extreme discomfort, or if you have severe blistering, swelling, or redness, call your doctor. You should also alert the doctor if you might have inhaled the smoke of burning poison ivy plants, particularly if you become short of breath. Seek medical attention at once if the rash is on your eyes, nose, mouth, throat, or genitals.
The Power of Prevention
- Whenever venturing out into the wilds where you may come into contact with poisonous plants, wear long pants and a long-sleeved shirt.
- Get a plant-identification book, and learn to recognize poison ivy, oak, and sumac. Many people recognize poison ivy for its "leaves of three." But they may fail to recognize that poison ivy can grow as a shrub or tree-clinging vine as well as a ground cover. In the spring, its leaves are reddish. Late in the season, it bears pale white berries.
- Before going out, rub some IvyBlock or Stokogard outdoor cream on exposed skin. These claylike lotions, which are available over the counter, form a protective barrier that guards skin against urushiol.
- Don't go near any burning brush pile. If there's poison ivy in the pile, the oil takes to the air and can get into your lungs. You can develop a serious lung infection, as well as a rash over your entire body.

Maybe shallow is deeper than me, or maybe Cartoon Network's decision to honor National Adoption Month by ramping up Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is pure brilliance. (Yes, I'm aware there's more to this issue than a cartoon about abandoned imaginary friends. I encourage you to click that link back there for resources about National Adoption Month, absolutely, but when you're done being a grown-up and want to talk cartoons, come on back over here.)
So. Let's talk Foster's. There's a new episode premiering every Friday night at 7:00 in November. We missed it, last Friday, but happened to catch "Bloo's the Boss" (last week's episode) last night.
It never fails to amaze me how hard Foster's makes me laugh. Seriously. My kids stop laughing at the show to laugh at me, because I can't stop laughing. And I can't. I love this show. I may need professional help. But if this is wrong, I don't want to be right.
Mid-episode, Cartoon Network ran an ad for their upcoming Thanksgiving Fosterpalooza (my word; though if they want to borrow it, it's okay with me). Thanksgiving will bring a marathon of Foster's all day long, culminating in the premiere of the new hour-long Foster's movie, Good Wilt Hunting:
After once again having no visitor at the Foster's Creator Reunion Picnic, a lonely Wilt sets out across the country in hopes of reuniting with his long lost creator, in "Good Wilt Hunting." Uncertain as to why Wilt left, Bloo and the Foster's gang set out on a road trip to find him. Hindered by Bloo's far-out theories and Wilt's overly good nature, the chase takes many unexpected twists and turns and all the while we come to learn about Wilt's mysterious past.
Word is that the movie will also introduce us to Eduardo's creator and the scientist who first studied Coco.
I can't wait. Er, I mean, my kids can't wait. Ahem.

More from Fiennes on Voldemort
Aug 30, 2005
Posted by Melissa AnelliUncategorized
Ralph Fiennes gave another interview promoting The Constant Gardener, and again spoke about playing Lord Voldemort:
I'm not a psychiatrist," he says. "But I do think childhood is the answer. And thank God, J.K. Rowling has done the work for us. Lord Voldemort is a rejected child. Once I understood that, I could locate the rage.
