Adam Levine Looks Sexy in Bed For American Horror Story Trailer!
Voice coach Adam Levine once sang, "I'm never gonna leave this bed," and at the time, we didn't want him to.
But in a new, creepy promo for FX's American Horror Story, Adam looks to be in bed against his will. Even more disturbing is the fact that our sexy star is fully clothed in bed! Don't worry, we've already sent a petition to show creator, Ryan Murphy.
To watch Entertainment Weekly's exclusive trailer, click here.
We've already learned some disturbing new details about Adam's AHS character, Leo. Apparently our boy draws the attention of this season's new big bad, which ruins Leo's honeymoon with co-star Jenna Dewan-Tatum.
What do you think of Adam's transition into acting? Will he make a good addition to the AHS cast? Tell us below!

Success and Failure in the World's Most Dynamic RegionIn the 1980s and 1990s many in the West came to believe in the myth of an East-Asian economic miracle. Japan was going to dominate, then China. Countries were called tigers" or mini-dragons," and were seen as not just development prodigies, but as a unified bloc, culturally and economically similar, and inexorably on the rise.Joe Studwell has spent two decades as a reporter in the region, and The
Money and Power in Hong Kong and Southeast AsiaHong Kong and Southeast Asia are home to five hundred million people, yet their economies are dominated by only fifty families whose interests range from banking to real estate, shipping to sugar, gambling to lumber. At their peak, eight of the world's two dozen richest men were Southeast Asian, but their names would not be familiar to most regular readers of The Wall Street Journal. A complex
The Quest for the Last Great Untapped Market on EarthIn The China Dream, acclaimed business journalist Joe Studwell takes to task the predictions that China will become an economic juggernaut on the world stage in the twenty-first century -- and instead foresees an economic crisis. He argues that since the days of Marco Polo, Western nations have seen the vast population of the Middle Kingdom as a fantastic opportunity for expanding trade, investing
Tax Reform in the Baltics, Russia, and Other Countries of the Former Soviet UnionThis paper provides an overview of the recent revenue performance in the Baltics, Russia, and other countries of the former Soviet Union, and a survey of these countries' efforts to modify tax policy in line with the needs of increasingly market-oriented economies and to increase the effectiveness of tax administration. It focuses principally on the 12 countries of the CIS, but refers also to the
Migration and Remittances in MoldovaLabor migration and remittances, which have increasingly become a part of the global landscape, have profound economic and social consequences. Moldova, a small low-income country where an estimated one-third of the economically active population has been working abroad, is an interesting illustration of this trend. Drawing on household survey data, this Special Issues paper explains why Moldovan
Credit and Fiscal Systems in Rural ChinaThe official banking institutions for rural China are Rural Credit Cooperatives (RCCs). Although these co-ops are mandated to support agricultural development among farm households, since 1980 half of RCC loans have gone to small and medium-sized industrial enterprises located in, and managed by, townships and villages. These township and village enterprises have experienced highly uneven levels
The Rise of the Chinese Currency and Its Global FutureThe rise of the renminbi and what it means for forex markets Chinese authorities have ambitious plans to "internationalize" the renminbi, transforming it from a tightly controlled domestic legal tender into a global currency for international trade, held by both private and public sector asset managers. The Offshore Renminbi examines this impending currency revolution, outlining why the emergence
How the West Created and How China Survived the Global Financial CrisisThe 2007-09 financial crisis was predictable and avoidable but American and British regulators chose not to intervene. They failed to enforece legislation or implement their own policies because of an Anglo-American 'regulatory culture' of non-intervention that came to dominate financial regulation worldwide. Hong Kong - the international financial centre of an increasingly prosperous China -
Socialism, Development and DebtThis book, first published in 1990, analyses contemporary Yugoslavian development strategy in its historical and political context, assessing how corruption, negligence, and an emphasis on industry to the detriment of agriculture and trade, have all played a part in bringing Yugoslavia close to financial and political chaos. The book concludes by considering the contemporary prospects for a more
State Dominance in Myanmar: The Political Economy of IndustrializationThe central focus of the book is the state's efforts to industrialize Myanmar, first through direct intervention and planning under a socialist economic framework as interpreted by the state leaders (1948-88) and lately (1989 onwards) through state-managed outward orientation. In examining developments during the 1948-88 period, this study situates the Myanmar case within the developmental state
The Political and Economic Transition in East Asia
Strong Market, Weakening StateThe book examines the political and economic developments in East Asia since the end of the Cold War in an attempt to identify a broad pattern of transition, particularly in terms of the reshaping of the state's relations with forces and institutions in economy, politics and domestic- international interactions.

|Adam Phillips.
"Tickle a child, and she peals with laughter. Go on too long, and her laughter is sure to turn to tears. Where is that ticklish line between pleasure and pain? Why do we risk its being crossed? Does psychoanalysis possess the language to talk about such an extraordinary ordinary thing? In a style that is writerly and audacious, Adam Phillips takes up this subject and others largely overlooked by psychoanalysis - kissing, worrying, risk, solitude, and composure. He writes about phobias as a kind of theory, a form of protection against curiosity; about analysis as a patient's way of reconstituting solitude; about "good-enough" mothering as the antithesis of "bad-enough" imperialism; about psychoanalysis as an attempt to cure idolatry through idolatry; and even about farting as it relates to worrying." "Psychoanalysis began as a virtuoso improvisation within the science of medicine, but virtuosity has given way to the dream of science that only the examined life is worth living. Phillips shows that the drive to omniscience has been unfortunate both for psychoanalysis and for life. On Kissing, Tickling, and Being Bored is a set of meditations on underinvestigated themes in psyochoanalysis that shows how much one's psychic health depends on establishing a realm of life that successfully resists examination."--Jacket.

Application filed August 2. 1907. Serial No. 386,754:-
To all ibhom "it mayv concern:
Be it known that I, HARLow R.' COOL, a cltizen of the United States, and a resident 'of Bradford in the county` of McKean and Stateof Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Electro- 'therapeutic Syringes; vand I do hereby declare, that the following is a full, clear,y and exact description of the invention, such as' .will enable others skilled in the art to vu ihich l Vit appertains to make and use the. same.
- My invention relates to improvements' in syringes in which the therapeutic qualities of e ectricity are combined lwith the Acleansing and curative eifects of water or medicinal fluids in the 'treatment of various internal ailments of the body.
objects of my invention are, the ro.14 duction of :ga syringe of the type descri ed,
which is s iinple in construction, positive and effective 1n action, and inexpenswe to manufacture; and 'in the provision of means where.
by an electrical current can be passed vthrough any portion of the body and whereby said syringe may be used independent of the electrical appliance whendesired,
The invention consists in the construction,
viewof he perforated metallic-cap o f the nozzle.
In thedrawings, like numerals of reference refer to like parts in the several figures.
The reference numeral 5 desi ates abattery, for which any other suita le source of electrical energy may be substituted if desire 6 is the nozzle of the syringe, which is preferably made of hard-rubber or other suitable non-conducting material, and whichv is hollowed out for the passageof water or other liquid therethrou h; said nozzle having a flexible hose 7 a 'p ied to'oneend there# of, Vas at 8,'which lea s to a reservoir 9 acting as a supply to the nozzle, such as are commonly used in fountain syringesr A clamp 10 is placed upon the flexible hose so that upon actuation thereof, the liquid supply may be shut-o Entering the nozzle at".
one end is a metallic bushing 11 in which is inserted a removable plug 12 having electrical connection with one.po1e of the battery by means of a conducting wire 13.
14 designates a contact-plate which may be faced with a sponge or other suitable mater-ial, and which is in electrical connection with the other pole of the battery by means of a conducting wire 15. i
Soldered-to the bushing 11 is a Wire 16 whiclipasses' lengthwise through the bore of the nozzle and. is coiled at its outer end to form a substantially conical depressible contact 17 the enlarged inner end of 'said -con-z...
tact bearing against the end of the -nozzle. Fitting over the outer end of the noz'le' is a metallic-cap 18 havingits convex end-wall perforated and bearing against said depressible contact; said cap being held on the nozzle by frictional contact therewith. f
On inserting the nozzle into the body and applying the sponge-faced plate against the same, an electrical current will pass through the body, and4 when it is desired to use the liquid a pliance .in connection therewith, it
.is simp y necessary to release the clamp around the hose 7 after the reservoir is filled with the liquid. By removing the plug 12 fromthe bushing 11'of the nozzle, the ap'-- paratusI is in shape for use as a liquid syringe I consideri" the depressible contact be-v tween the end wall of the cap and the end of the body of the nozzle a very essentialfeature of my invention, as it assures positive electrical connection at this point, which allows a free passage for the esca eof water or other liquid through the pe orations in said cap.
It is a parent that my invention can be embodied) in a bulb or other form of syringe,
and I thereforedo not wish to be limited tol the construction and arrangement of parts herein shown and described;
Having thus describedmy invention, what 1. The combination with a syringe having a hollow nozzle and a metallic perforated cap applied to the outer end of said hozzle, of a contact-plate, aconducting-wire within said nozzle having yielding contact with said cap,
a source of electrical energy, and electrical connections from the latter to said conductingwire and to saidc'ontact-plate.
2. The combination with la syringe havingfl applied to the outer en'd of said nozzle, of a conducting-wire passing through said nozzle and having its outer end coiled and in contact withsaid metallic-cap, a contact-plate, .a source of electrical energy, and electrical' connections from the latter to said conducting wire and to said contact-plate.
3.

text: The Night Shift wiki last edited by Blue_Shield on 05/18/14 09:15AM View full history OriginThe Night Shift team up with Captain America.Night Shift is a group of supernaturally oriented villains originally organized by the Shroud. The Shroud's true purpose for the group is to combat evil that occurs during the night hours, sleazy underworld crime figures in particular. The Shroud was an actual crime-fighter who wanted the public and the criminal underworld to think he was a crime-lord. This was an elaborated charade so he could attack the underworld from within. The Shroud organized the Night Shift as his allies in pursuit of this strategy.The original group consisted of the Shroud, Dansen Macabre, Tatterdemalion, Tick-Tock, Gypsy Moth, Digger, Needle, Brothers Grimm and the Werewolf, Jack Russel. The Misfit would later join the group. None of the members knew that the Shroud was an actual crimefighter except Jack Russel. Two of the more important actions came when they assisted Captain America against Dr. Malus and the Power Broker, whose experiments flooded the sewers in Los Angeles with rejected mutations from the Unlimited Class Wrestling Federation.CreationThe Night Shift was created by Mark Gruenwald and Tom Morgan in 1987 and first appeared in Captain America # 330.Story ArcsMoon Knight meets the Night Shift.Moon Knight was advised to come to the Tower of Shadows in Santa Monica by Jack Russel to get information he wanted on the Zodiac member, Van Lunt. Moon Knight encountered various booby traps before he engaged the Shroud in battle. This was a test, an initiation rite for Moon Knight and the Shroud wanted him to join the Night Shift. The Shroud wanted Moon Knight to take his place as leader but he declined because he recently joined the Avengers.Night Shift vs The West Coast Avengers.The second occurred when the Shroud was absent, and Dansen Macabre ordered an attack against the West Coast Avengers in retaliation for the arrest of Digger, a Night Shift member. The attack was unsuccessful but Night Shift escaped with the Shroud's assistance. Their headquarters is a haunted estate in the Santa Monica Mountains called the Tower of Shadows.The Night Shift members discovered that the Shroud was an actual crimefighter and dumped him from the group. A new Hangman would take over as leader of the Night Shift and all the current members were supernaturally augmented by the powerful demon, Satannish in exchange for their souls. Satannish was conjured up during a national televised fight between the West Coast Avengers and the Night Shift. All the Night Shift members were getting stronger after Satannish appeared. The Scarlet Witch and Dr. Strange told the Night Shift that the Hangman offered their souls to the demon so he can become a movie star. The Night Shift members agreed to give up their demon-given energies to power up the West Coast Avengers. The Night Shift decided to help the Avengers and they attacked Satannish together. Satannish was forced to leave the earthly plane and all members of the Night Shift lost their augmented abilities.Needle, Brothers Grimm & Misfit.The Blazing Skull confronts a Night Shift member named Digger and wanted him to answer some questions. A fight ensues and the Blazing Skull knocks out Digger. Captain America intervenes and wants to talk to the Blazing Skull because he thinks he is connected to the Red Skull. Some Night Shift members arrived which included Needle, Misfit and the Brothers Grimm. They interrupt their fight and take on both men for messing with Digger. However, the Shifties are taken down by Captain America and the Blazing Skull. Blazing Skull revealed to Captain America that he was an occult investigator and was working for Dr. Druid. He was sent to check out the Night Shiftcharacters after Druid heard they had some recent supernatural dealings.Marvel ZombiesThe Hood & the Night Shift.The Night shift reappeared again but working under the rule of the Hood. They join the Hood in getting the zombie virus from Black Talon. This time the group consist of the Needle, Digger, Tatterdemalion, Dansen Macabre. They end up attacking the Midnight Sons in a ferocious battle. They at one point have the upper hand but they later get defeated by the Midnight Sons but also get violently infected by the zombie virus. They attack the Midnight Sons and the Hood but they are later freed of the virus and are teleported back to the Hood's hide out.Snapdragon would hire the NIght Shift to eliminate Moon Knight and Echo in Los Angeles but they fail their assignment which would lead to their ultimate demise. Tick-Tock, Tatterdemalion, Digger, Misfit, Needle and Dansen Macabre are taken to a warehouse where they are confronted by Count Nefaria, the new West Coast kingpin. Count Nefaria proceeds to incinerate the Night Shift until nothing but a pile of ashes is left for being moronically stupid and incompetent.

REDWOOD CITY, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/10/13 -- Bunchball Founder and Chief Product Officer Rajat Paharia is helping companies win the battle for loyalty with "Loyalty 3.0: How to Revolutionize Customer and Employee Engagement with Big Data and Gamification," a new book available June 18 from McGraw-Hill.
Paharia, recognized worldwide as the father of gamification, has been an evangelist for the industry since he started Bunchball in 2005. His new book encapsulates nearly a decade of insights learned from helping Fortune 1,000 companies implement successful gamification strategies. Loyalty 3.0 explores the concepts Paharia has spent his career defining, including how today's leading companies can use big data, the latest science on human motivation and gamification to cultivate loyalty that is meaningful and sustainable.
Loyalty 3.0 also discusses the converging market trends that are transforming the notion of loyalty and making it critically important for companies to evolve their thinking about what "loyalty" actually means. Paharia explains how the loyalty programs of the past have become outdated and ineffective, as digitally adept consumers have grown savvier about how companies market to them, and as a result have become less loyal to specific brands. From there, Paharia delves into a discussion about how companies can use big data to implement gamification strategies that add tangible value to their businesses. He explains how everyone who comes into contact with businesses -- customers, employees and partners -- generates data from each behavior and interaction. By capturing and understanding this data and pairing it with the latest research on human motivation and gamification, companies can drive increased engagement and enduring loyalty, Loyalty 3.0.
Paharia goes on to explain that companies who embrace and implement Loyalty 3.0 fundamentals will be able to cut through the noise of daily deals, tweets and other distractions to inspire customers, employees and partners to join, participate, perform, share, learn and collaborate more.
"Loyalty 3.0 is about marshaling the very technologies that are helping to defeat current loyalty programs and turning them into a secret weapon for creating loyalty that lasts," said Paharia. "Loyalty 3.0 is a guide to help companies understand how to do this through gamification, an approach to motivating behavior so crucial to business success that someday it will just be called 'good design.' I wrote this book to help innovators see how they can harness the motivational power of gamification and loyalty to drive meaningful results and a competitive advantage for their business."
Real-world case studies from numerous globally known brands, including Ford, Kraft and Adobe are detailed in Loyalty 3.0, offering readers an industry-first look at gamification best practices and successful strategies. Loyalty 3.0 outlines the techniques companies can use to increase engagement with customers, as well as motivate employees to become more highly trained, make more frequent use of social collaboration networks and achieve personal or departmental goals. By offering a roadmap to gamification best practices, Paharia opens the door to companies everywhere, inviting them to discover how they can use Loyalty 3.0 techniques to create productive employees, motivated partners and dedicated customers.
"Loyalty 3.0 is filled with major insights and does a brilliant job of grounding the reader in fundamental concepts around motivation, big data and gamification -- building on these concepts through real-world case studies that bring the combinations to life -- and finishing with actionable ideas and next steps that enable you to test and operationalize these ideas in your own workplace and personal life," said Brad Smith, president and CEO of Intuit.
Loyalty 3.0 readers will learn:
- Why current loyalty programs are failing to generate the loyalty businesses really want.
- The five intrinsic motivators that organizations can use to shape the behaviors of customers, employees, partners and social communities.
- Specific ways companies are using big data to drive business results -- from encouraging customers to buy more, to motivating employees to perform better, to encouraging community members contribute quality content and share their expertise.
- How gamification serves as the Loyalty 3.0 engine, fueled by motivational science and big data.
- The steps every company must take to implement a successful "Loyalty 3.0" program.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Principal Barcelona
Spent one night here and found the hotel to be nice and clean. It is located just off Las Ramblas yet we found it to be very quiet. Rooms are a decent size and we had balconies in both rooms. Shower was excellent and staff was friendly.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Principal Barcelona
Nice decent hotel
My boyfriend and I stayed from Sep 14-17. The hotel is in a good location. We asked for a new room and we got a decent basic new room, it was clean and nice, we had no problems. I found the staff friendly and helpful, they showed us exactly where to go. What I liked was the all vegetarian restaurant "Organic" accross the street since we love vegetarian food.
Wouldn't stay again
Location was good, but I hated the hotel. I asked for room in the new section, as suggested, but the got a small, loud room that had a small window into the elevator shaft. I asked to switch the next night and the room was slightly better, but still not good. Not worth the money.
Good Location
We have stayed in this hotel from September 17-23 2003. We were very fortunate as we were allocated the "new" (going to be worn out pretty soon) rooms. The new rooms are bigger than the old ones.However, the hotel is not very well maintained and very clean (3/5 only). The floors and toilet were not mopped or even vacuum every day. You will need to request for it if you are going to stay there for many days. Anyway, the whole city is very dirty and lots of flies and dog **** around. Got to be careful where you step.The best thing about the hotel is the location. The Hotel is in La Ramblas and away from the noisy crowd. Some of the hotel is along the street and can be very noisy especially during the weekend.
Don't go
We stayed at hotel principal for one night and it was a terrible night!
The bathroom was dirty. the airco didn't work and the hotel was quite noisy, we could hear our neighbours fight! Positive: friendly staff, in the center of Barcelona I would reccomand: Hostal opera, just around the corner: cheap, fresh and friendly
Good base
Stayed in a new room 27th April. Good size bedroom with nice bathroom. Bar and dining area basic. Excellent quiet location just of the Ramblas. Well worth considering
Hotel Principal
An inexpensive, clean and very nice place to stay. Easy walking to museums, restaurants, Gothic Quarter, Gaudi and the Metro. On a quiet street. Breakfast buffet, while not elegant, was filling and friendly. Ask for the "new section" or a "quiet room" as the hotel also caters to school-age tour groups.
Well Placed. February 15/03
Well placed to tour the city with buses and metro just a few hundred yards away or within easy walking distance to a lot of attractions. The Hotel is in a side street just off the Rambla, our room was very clean, comfortable and quiet of a night, the dining room was also clean and bright and gave you a good start to the day. Couple of tips: get the bus from the airport (3.45) to the top of the Rambla then 10 mins walk, ask for a 'New Room' when you book.
We did have a few problems: the window was small, and looked into a disused and smelly lift-shaft; it was dirty in places; our shower didn't work; the bathroom didn't have a lock. It would be unfair not to write about its positive points: the small balcony was a pleasant addition; the seating area was pleasant; and there was a nice lady on reception a couple of times.
Clean, Central and Cheap!
This hotel is excellent value for money. The rooms and bathrooms are clean and well equipped, and rooms at the back are quiet. You can walk to Rambla, Plau Gruelle and the Gothic Quatre. Location is very convenient. There are good Japanese and organic restaurants on the same street. Also offer free internet service which was extremely useful. Highly recommended.

... palm trees and peacock feathers, etc etc - as the photos will attest. We walked from there up to Gaudi's Casa Batllo ( pronounced Bat- eo).This was an existing apartment building which Gaudi remodelled for the Batllo Family, with exquisite and intricate attention to detail (and not a straight wall to be found anywhere). The exterior is fanciful and fantasy-like (even a little creepy) whilst the colourful humped tiled roof is suggestive of St George's dragon. ...

Yes folks, after 22 hours in the air and about 6 sitting at airports waiting to get into the air, we're in Barcelona.

A Roane County man is in stable condition after being shot Monday morning.
The victim was Joshua Brown, according to authorities.
Bobby Lee Murray Jr., 53, of Old Elverton Road, in Harriman, is accused of shooting Brown with a shotgun.
"We are trying to determine what happened. We have conflicting stories," said Sheriff Jack Stockton.
Stockton said Brown had injuries to the back and right side, but they weren't life-threatening.
Murray was still in custody Tuesday, listed as being charged with two counts of aggravated assault.
Stockton said Brown is the young man who lost his family, including wife, Stephanie, and their three children, Gage, Jackson and infant, Grayson, in a crash on Hwy. 61 on Aug. 30, 2011.
The shooting occurred on Old Elverton Road, Stockton said.
