Talk about reeling one in.
Hilary Swank stopped by the Pure Food Fish Market – a fourth generation fish market out of Seattle's world-famous Pike Place Market – on Monday to stock up on seafood and pose with quite the catch.
The Million Dollar Baby star – who divulged she was having a dinner party – purchased fresh king salmon, scallops, king crab, oysters and mussels.
"She was absolutely delightful," fishmonger Tom Sackville-West told PEOPLE.
Later, Swank posed for a photograph – with a big thumbs up – beside Sean Lakeside, Sr., who has been working at Pure Food Fish Market for 30 years.

Sit on it! Here's your chance to win Fonzie's motorcycle
Henry Winkler coming to town
Aaayyy! Seminole Casino Coconut Creek is giving you a chance to win a slice of Americana: Fonzie's 1949 Triumph Trophy TRS from '70s sitcom Happy Days. On Aug. 25. Henry Winkler, a.k.a. "The Fonz," will be on-hand from 9 p.m. – 11 p.m. for a meet and greet and help award his iconic bike to one grand prize winner.
A little background for Generation Y: Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli was a charismatic greaser and auto mechanic. Originally he was a secondary character but eventually became the lead after becoming an instant fan favorite. In 1999, TV Guide ranked him number four on its 50 Greatest TV Characters of All Time list. It's hard to forget catch phrases like "Aaayyy," and "Sit on it!"
As for the bike, it was provided by stuntman and Triumph dealer Bud Ekins, who removed the front fender, painted the fuel tank silver and changed the handlebars.
How to win it: Players can swipe their player's card daily for a chance to win, and receive one free entry for every 50 slot points earned or every $200 wagered on tables, excluding Stax Poker Lounge, beginning Aug. 1 at 7 a.m. On Aug. 25, 10 winners will be randomly selected and given an envelope each hour from 9 p.m. – 11 p.m. Two "finalist" envelopes will be given every hour, which will give that player a chance to return for the final drawing at 11 p.m. Each finalist will receive a leather jacket with a key attached, and only one will open the lock to win Fonzie's motorcycle. Finalists whose keys do not open the lock will receive $1,000 in free play.

Gut Microbes Help Immune Cells Develop, Battle Infection Study Finds
The human relationship with microbial life is complicated. At almost any supermarket, you can pick up both antibacterial soap and probiotic yogurt during the same shopping trip.

Research Supports Anti-Aging Benefits of "Elite Class" of Tonic Herbs
By Jim English Tonic Herbalism is the practice of combining traditional 'tonic herbs' to achieve a synergistic effect that far greater than what can be obtained by taking individual herbs. The basis for tonic herbalism is the belief that, through regular consumption, tonic herbs help the body maintain its self-regulatory capacity, assuring optimal functioning. Tonic herbs, referred to in Asia as "superior herbs," comprise an "elite class" of about 60 >> Read Article

I am relatively new to web development and web applications. I have heard about JSON but am not sure exactly what its uses are.
It is a kind of language for encoding information. For example, if you want to send information about person from one place to another, then it JSON it may look like this:
Taken from wiki. :) See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON for more details.
First, it's an acronym for JavaScript Object Notation.
It is often used in places where applications deal with object data structures (often seen in languages such as Java, C#, etc.), and associative arrays (key-value pairs seen in many languages such as Python, PHP, etc.)
To answer your question, it's a simple and efficient way to encode objects into strings, transfer them, and recreate the objects on the other end.

Midwestern Ice Storm - D004825
Daniel Dempster
Photograph - Photography
In February of 2009 we had a huge ice storm that knocked out our power for a week. My wife and I slept in the basement where it was a bit warmer and during the day we drove around and shot photos as there wasn't much else we could do. This farm belongs to a friend of mine and we often hunt quail here during the season.

CLEVELAND (AP) -- Jerome Harrison came to the NFL with a simple,
modest plan.
"I just practice hard, line up where the coaches tell me to
line up and make plays," he said.
In a short time, the little running back has made a bunch of
The 5-foot-9 rookie caught a 31-yard touchdown pass in the
fourth quarter and finished with 107 total yards Friday night as
the Cleveland Browns rallied for a 20-16 win over the Detroit Lions.
With the Browns down 16-10, third-string quarterback Derek Anderson hit Harrison in stride over the middle for the go-ahead
score. Harrison, who rushed for 1,900 yards at Washington State in
2005, ran for 53 yards on nine carries and had six receptions for
Browns coach Romeo Crennel has been impressed with Harrison's
fast start.
"The Harrison kid caught the ball and ran with it," Crennel
said. "He looked pretty good. He has quickness and change of pace.
If he continues to improve, we'll all feel good."
The Browns are also feeling better about tight end Kellen Winslow, the former first-round pick who missed most of the past
two seasons with leg injuries. He had three catches for 37 yards --
all in the first half.
"I'm not nervous. I'm not pressing and I'm out there having
fun," said Winslow, who believes he'll have a big season. "Oh
yeah. I'm looking to dominate."
Harrison has emerged as a multipurpose threat for the Browns
(1-1), who looked much better on both side of the ball than they
did a week ago in a listless 20-7 loss at Philadelphia. Harrison
scored Cleveland's lone TD against the Eagles.
Taken in the fifth round (145th overall) by the Browns, Harrison
has shown speed, agility and toughness. Although he's the shortest
Browns player, Harrison hasn't been intimidated about running
"He's looked great, I knew he would," said Anderson, who
played against Harrison in college.
Matt Prater kicked three field goals -- 22, 44 and 48 yards -- for
the Lions (1-1).
An undrafted rookie from Central Florida, Prater has no chance
of beating out Jason Hanson, Detroit's all-time scoring leader and
one of the NFL's most consistent kickers for the past 14 seasons.
However, Prater's strong kicking could land him a job elsewhere, or
force the Lions to keep him around.
Lions coach Rod Marinelli said he's considering keeping two
"He was a beast," Marinelli said. "He did a great job
Browns starting quarterback Charlie Frye finished 8-of-11 for 41
yards with one touchdown, one interception and one fumble in four
Except for throwing the pick to cornerback Dre Bly on his fourth
attempt, Frye showed nice poise and pocket presence. His
performance had to be reassuring to Crennel, who handed the
starting job to the second-year quarterback when he traded veteran
Trent Dilfer to San Francisco.
The Browns also got big plays from rookie linebackers Kamerion Wimbley, D'Qwell Jackson and nose tackle Babatunde Oshinowo.
Wimbley had a sack, Jackson made an interception and Oshinowo had a
late sack as Detroit was driving.
Lions starter Jon Kitna played the entire first half, completing
seven of 12 passes for 94 yards and one TD. Kitna's passing was one of
the few bright spots as the Lions first-team offense managed just 3
yards rushing on nine attempts against Cleveland's defensive
Frye bounced back from throwing an interception on Cleveland's
first possession by hitting Dennis Northcutt for a 5-yard TD pass
in the first quarter to put the Browns ahead 7-0.
After taking a low snap from new center Ross Tucker, Frye
scrambled to buy himself time before zipping his pass over the
middle to Northcutt, who has been his favorite target during camp.
Frye's next attempt didn't go as well. Detroit defensive end
James Hall beat tackle Jeff Shaffer on an outside rush and stripped
the ball from Frye deep in Cleveland territory.
Three plays later, Kitna hit Kevin Jones for a 2-yard TD to tie
Game notes
Browns backup quarterback Ken Dorsey, who hasn't looked
sharp in camp, finished 11-of-16 for 75 yards. ... Cleveland was
missing several injured starters: CBs Gary Baxter (strained chest
muscle) and Daylon McCutcheon (knee surgery), RT Ryan Tucker (knee
surgery) and LB Willie McGinest, who is nursing a tender elbow
following surgery to remove bone chips this spring. ... WR Charles
Rogers (knee) and defensive end Shaun Rogers (shoulder) didn't
dress for the Lions.

Refers to the base-16 number system, which consists of 16 unique symbols: the numbers 0 to 9 and the letters A to F. For example, the decimal number 15 is represented as F in the hexadecimal numbering system. The hexadecimal system is useful because it can represent every byte (8 bits) as two consecutive hexadecimal digits. It is easier for humans to read hexadecimal numbers than binary numbers.
To convert a value from hexadecimal to binary, you merely translate each hexadecimal digit into its 4-bit binary equivalent. Hexadecimal numbers have either an 0x prefix or an hsuffix. For example, the hexadecimal number
translates to the following binary number:
0011 1111 0111 1010
