FSM that uses remote HTTP calls to allow state transitions
FSM that uses remote HTTP calls to allow state transitions.
npm install node-fsm-http
Works as a wrapper node-fsm to allow fsm to use external HTTP requests to check, whether our state transition is valid. Basically, it provides default routerFunc for
In essence, you just provide your machine description the same way as for
node-fsm but now you place optional
request field to you edge objects:
var machine = { "nodes": [ … ], "edges": [ { "name": "AB", "from": "A", "to": "B", "request": { "uri": "http://localhost:8889/ok" // <- THIS } } ], "currentState": "A"} /// then, you create fsm-http instance without `routerFunc`:var FSMHttp = require('node-fsm-http'); var fsm = new FSMHttp(machine);
now, you use same methods as for plain node-fsm, but when you attempt to change machine state, fsm performs http request specified by
request field of edge object you trying to follow. If http request returns HTTP status 200, transition successfull, otherwise it fails.
node-fsm-http uses
request module to perform HTTP request, using
request value as
option value for request (module), so you have many options to pass data from your fsm to external endpoints (see 'request' documentation on 'options' object), for example, you could specify different HTTP verbs to perform request, or provide request payload to pass form data to external HTTP endpoint, etc.
If egge you trying to follow doesn't have
request field, fsm decides that transition is successful by default.

2004 Ford Expedition Q&A
2004 Ford Expedition Question: A/C problems
My A/C works fine when idling or going down hill. But once I accelerate, the pressure stops, it still cools just fine but there is no air blowing out. The back A/C works fine during this. I've had it hooked up to the computer and it says there is nothing wrong with it, but clearly there is. I've also had freon put in it as well. Does anyone know what the problem is? Also, I have a friend that has the same year and model as me and is experiencing the same problem. Factory defect maybe? Oh, my car is Ford Expedition 2004, Eddie Bauer - rgaynor

Wilfley said one group in particular -- those treated with SFM who reported few social problems -- did better than the rest of the youngsters.
The bottom line, said Ludwig, is that overweight and obesity needs to be treated as a chronic health problem that needs long-term treatment.
"Overweight is caused by many factors -- a lack of physical activity, the nature of our diets, emotional factors, family dynamics, what's happening in our schools, and larger socioeconomic factors -- so any intervention that focuses on just one factor, such as a new diet, seems unlikely to succeed, said Ludwig, who is also an author of Ending the Food Fight: Guide Your Child to a Healthy Weight in a Fast Food/Fake Food World. "We really need to be viewing obesity as a chronic condition for which long-term attention will be needed."
Wilfley said she'd like combine the best aspects of both types of maintenance treatment and continue the treatment for a longer period of time to see if the children could be more successful at maintaining their weight loss.

Dalai Lama
1 comment
Sangye Gyatso and China's Long MemoryA week ago, Professor Robert Barnett wrote for the New York Review of Books, explaining some history to those curious why China is so sensitive to news of the 14th Dalai Lama's planned retirement—news that recently upset many Tibetans. He traces the cause back to the Fifth Dalai Lama, the first to hold temporal power, bestowed, as is well known, by the Mongol Khan (who, I think, was a follower of the Sakya school, not the Gelugs.) In the Fifth Dalai Lama's declining years, the new and ambitious Qing Dynasty claimed sovereignty over Tibet (and many other areas thousands of miles from their capital of Shenyang and later Beijing.)

The 100 most spiritually influential People? Guess who's #1...No, it's not the Dalai Lama or Thich Nhat Hanh—they come in second and fourth, respectively—according to the Watkins Review's "100 Spiritual Power List," which appeared earlier this month. The review is put out by Watkins Books, the century-old London book store specializing in esoterica. Their selection criteria? There are several factors that were taken into account when compiling the list. Listed below are the main three: 1) The person has to be alive 2) The person has to have made a unique and spiritual contribution on a global scale 3) The person is frequently googled, appears in Nielsen Data, and highlighted in throughout the blogosphere It's interesting to think about the amount of times that a person is googled; in a sense, being googled is a form of digital voting, and illustrates just how often someone is being sought outMore »

Dalai Lama steps down from position as Tibet's political leaderToday, on the 52nd anniversary of the 1959 Tibetan uprising against Chinese rule, the Dalai Lama announced that he was formally relinquishing his role as political leader of the Tibetan exile government. The announcement, delivered in Dharamshala, India, has been understood as a move to strengthen the democratic structure of the Tibetan political movement as a new generation of Tibetan leaders emerges. From The New York Times: For years, the Tibetan spiritual leader has spoken of his desire to cede political authority, or "retire" as he sometimes put it. But in Thursday's speech, the Dalai Lama made it official, announcing that he would propose the change during the session of the Tibetan parliament-in-exile that begins next week in Dharamsala, India.

Buddha on the BattlefieldBarack Obama's decision to double down on the war in Afghanistan has its supporters and detractors, but that we are largely insulated from the war's realities is indisputable. Differing from the Vietnam era—and in spite of the glut of information new technologies have made possible—images of the war and detailed and open discussion of its consequences are scarce in the mainstream media. You don't hear our representatives even discussing it much or at all when it comes to stretched budgets. And since the Democrats took power, open opposition has dropped off, as many moderates and liberals are afraid of "hurting Obama." I've discovered that many people are surprised when they learn that the U.S. has used phosphorous and cluster bombs in Afghanistan. We are preoccupied with other things, and the war is weakly reported. That we are poorly informed is understandable, but is it excusable? More »

Whether your food comes from the supermarket, a food pantry or your own farm, one Pennyrile District Health Department supervisor emphasizes the consumer's responsibility to safely prepare and store food. Jacque Day brings us this story.

|Reviews for Fifty Shades Unfaithful
| Guest chapter 21 . 7/1
Never read something so bullshit and ,If you want to savE your precious life a little time and good feeling,pls don't start reading this.
| kfoll chapter 3 . 4/26
Sounds like Claire is already pregnant with someone elses baby (Quin's?) and is going to pass it off as Christians.
He comes across pretty stupid TBH. Claire is a total snob and he 'loves her so much'? Says a lot about him.
| Guest chapter 4 . 2/28
I think Claire knows. I just hate to read about Christian loving another woman and having a child.
| TinaF chapter 21 . 1/25
Wonderful story!
| CG4me chapter 21 . 10/31/2014
Just finished reading this and was soo glad that CG and Ana finally got it together. I'm really not too fond of angst and cheating and it was not enjoyable in the usual sense, it was so different from the usual I found I was enjoying seeing how you brought them together. I hope writing it helped you through a difficult time.
| ilikemnms chapter 21 . 10/6/2014
This was such a beautiful story! I'm so glad that the people who belonged together got together!
| ilikemnms chapter 19 . 10/6/2014
No, Ana can't be dead! Don't let her be dead! Please, that would just make me cry and I couldn't cope. :(
| ilikemnms chapter 12 . 10/6/2014
Thank you for being the author that puts spoilers but then warns people to not read them if they don't want to. I accidentally read the last line while I was typing this out but I didn't read the rest and I'm glad I didn't because I wanted it all to be a surprise. I really do hope Ana's baby is Quinn's, because you can't get pregnant in a week, it's pretty much a two week time period between sex and having a positive pregnancy test.
| Rmoure chapter 21 . 8/26/2014
I will have to say that I do not like Christian and Ana "Cheating Stories" after all its Christian and Ana "Forever & Always." HOWEVER! I Found out that since this a cheating story with "Christian and Ana, Forever & Always." OMG I JUST LOVE IT! Still wish it did not end but it was great.. Thank you
| bex chapter 21 . 8/21/2014
l really enjoyed this, thanx so much for writing it.
| chatterbox33 chapter 21 . 6/16/2014
I guess I was wrong about Claire. You saved it in the end and that was great - Ana stayed true to her morals in a warped way. But I really liked that and it is unlike any other story I've read so kudos to you :)
| chatterbox33 chapter 13 . 6/16/2014
What a conniving witch, Claire is faking amnesia, I just know ot!
| Carol222 chapter 21 . 2/23/2014
Wonderful story. I was iffy about it in the beginning, but you REALLY pulled it out. Nice change from the now tired Trilogy. Many thanks. Carol
| Guest chapter 21 . 2/15/2014
Not what I expected however I'm pleasantly surprised. Thank you.
| sofiadixon chapter 7 . 2/9/2014
Intriguing story. I rarely read reviews, but I must admit one of my favorite aspects of fanfiction is the authors' notes, especially responses to flamers. I particularly enjoy yours in the two stories I've had the pleasure if reading so far.
Thank you

John Dean case for War in Iraq
John Dean's analysis of the administrations case for War. "What I found, in critically examining Bush's evidence, is not pretty. The African uranium matter is merely indicative of larger problems, and troubling questions of potential and widespread criminality when taking the nation to war. It appears that not only the Niger uranium hoax, but most everything else that Bush said about Saddam Hussein's weapons was false, fabricated, exaggerated, or phony."
The Cold War
Operation: Air Conditioner
It's about dropping our differences and getting together to support our troops and keep them cool.
Should I feel terribly guilty about giggling at some of the things on this web page? Like: "Together We Are: An Army of One" (Say what?) and "Here are some of the items that I buy and send besides air conditioners: Baby Wipes, Powder... Liquid Soap (I heard the bar melts)... Tiki Torches. Check out the Baghdad Weather Report near the bottom, and... wait a minute... "I've organized people to begin "Operation Christmas" and we need to start planning that in August." (So we aren't leaving anytime soon?)
And, while they seem to have enough power to run the A/C at the Army camp, electricity for the rest of Iraq is still gonna take some more money.

Saddam's Plan?
Did America Walk Into A Trap? In stories reported by Newsweek and Fox News it appears possible that the armed resistance now being encountered by US/British forces was part of Saddam Hussein's plan all along. The documents that have been found essentially say that should Baghdad fall, the Baath party loyalists should fade into society and extract vengeance on the occupying soldiers bit by bit. The nightmare scenario before the war was urban combat, Mogadishu style. But now it appears that Hussein may have upped the ante with this "guerrilla-type campaign".
Rumsfeld made his own intelligence
Rumsfeld's personal spy ring The defense secretary couldn't count on the CIA or the State Department to provide a pretext for war in Iraq. So he created a new agency that would tell him what he wanted to hear. Today, Salon also looks into the role played by John Bolton. Is investigative journalism now just relegated to the web? [you have to look at an ad, I believe]
20 lies about Iraq
20 lies about Iraq. The independent chimes in on the falsehoods and exaggerations both leading up to and after the war.
An American Soldier in Iraq
An American soldier maintains a weblog from Iraq. It contains details about his day to day life as a non-combat (and non-career) soldier during this conflict. Some people think he is an imposter, others think he's a dissident for using his voice in any manner other than as a Stars and Stripes reporter would. Thanks to I thought his weblog was interesting, including his responses to people's assertions that he isn't real or is somehow a dissident for using his voice. Thanks to Sensible Erection for the link.
'No real planning for postwar Iraq'
'No real planning for postwar Iraq' "The officials didn't develop any real postwar plans because they believed that Iraqis would welcome U.S. troops with open arms and Washington could install a favored Iraqi exile leader as the country's leader. The Pentagon civilians ignored CIA and State Department experts who disputed them, resisted White House pressure to back off from their favored exile leader and when their scenario collapsed amid increasing violence and disorder, they had no backup plan. Today, American forces face instability in Iraq, where they are losing soldiers almost daily to escalating guerrilla attacks, the cost of occupation is exploding to almost $4 billion a month and withdrawal appears untold years away." Bring 'Em On!
Journalism in New Iraq
Baghdad Bulletin "The Baghdad Bulletin is Iraq's only English-language newsmagazine and one of the country's only independent publications. The third issue (published Monday, July 7) is now being distributed across Iraq and in Jordan." They have a short bit about how Chemical Ali may have escaped Baghdad.
Al-Qaeda and Iraq: Together at Last?
Judge Finds Documentation Connecting Iraq with Al-Qaeda? Federal appellate Judge Gilbert S. Merritt of Nashville is in Iraq as one of 13 experts selected by the U.S. Justice Department to help rebuild Iraq's judicial system. And in an article from the Tennessean, he claims to have found a newspaper published in the Babylon Daily Political Newspaper, run by Uday Hussein, in which was a "List of Honor" containing the names of 600 men in high esteem by the former ruling regime. Among these was, apparently, ''Abid Al-Karim Muhamed Aswod, intelligence officer responsible for the coordination of activities with the Osama bin Laden group at the Iraqi embassy in Pakistan.''
Iraq civilian toll passes 6000
A very bloody "democracy" is what we've managed in Iraq. Yeah, who counts? Well, some do!
Who's the fall guy gonna be?
White House admits fudging Niger documents. The administration today admitted that forged evidence of Iraq's attempts to buy nuclear material should not have been presented as valid. This came about as a result of an atypically harsh period of questioning from the press following the publication of this editorial over the weekend... [more inside]
The good guys.
U.S. troops looted and vandalized Iraqi airport. More rape and pillage from British troops. Is this standard fare for tired troops?
People of the Peacock Angel
Meet the People of the Peacock Angel, the Yezidi. Theirs is a religion and culture centered near Mosul, Iraq, as well as Syria, the Caucasus, the via the diaspora in Germany. Seclusive and secretive, the Yezidi have often been maligned by outsiders due to misinterpretations of the nature of their primary Deity, Malak Taus (once a rebel angel who recreated the world and doused the fires of hell with his tears). Gurdjieff (pt. I, pt. II) may have been heavily influenced by them. Unlike other middle-eastern religions, the Yezidi have rejected dualism and, therefore, the ideas of sin and evil. Various versions float around of the Black Book of the Yezidi and other works that form their sacred literature. Wars, political pogroms and proselytizing have placed this beautiful, complex and misunderstood tradition in jeopardy.
Is this a high crime?
Bush dares Iraqis to kill U.S. soldiers "There are some who feel like that, you know, the conditions are such that they can attack us there. My answer is bring them on," Bush said. "We got the force necessary to deal with the security situation."
Is it wise to goad Iraqis into killing Americans?
Is it an impeachable offense?

"God told me to strike at al Qaida and I and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did..." does this kind of talk coming from our president and the most powerful man in concern you? - or reassure you?
Nukes Away
Nuke components found in Baghdad back yard. U.S. officials say it is no smoking gun but investigators point out that there is no way they would ever have found these components buried in a barrel in a back yard under a rose garden for 12 years unless someone such as this Iraqi scientist came forward.

Iraq Now: 20 Questions
Iraq Now: 20 Questions An attempt to answer the many questions about the Iraq war--how many troops are now there? Shia "revolt?" How many civilians killed? What is happening to the Kurds? etc etc
Bush Lied, People Died
The First Casualty. The New Republic is one of the few left-leaning political journals who supported the war on Iraq. Now it seems like they've come to their senses and have written a very exhaustive story on how exactly Team Bush manipulated evidence to support the war on Iraq: "Rather, interviews with current and former intelligence officials and other experts reveal that the Bush administration culled from U.S. intelligence those assessments that supported its position and omitted those that did not. The administration ignored, and even suppressed, disagreement within the intelligence agencies and pressured the CIA to reaffirm its preferred version of the Iraqi threat. Similarly, it stonewalled, and sought to discredit, international weapons inspectors when their findings threatened to undermine the case for war."
Mo' betta Green Berets -- more quickly?
"Army recruiting civilians as potential Green Berets" is the story I was thinking about when I wrote this post. Sounds like Rumsfeld wasn't kidding around. I wonder if, as discussed yesterday, there's a manpower shortage anticipated?
Revisionist History
Bush Blasts 'Revisionist Historians' on Iraq
President Bush countered those questioning his justification for the invasion of Iraq on Monday, dismissing "revisionist historians" and saying Washington acted to counter
an imminenta persistent threat. "Now there are some who would like to rewrite history; revisionist historians is what I like to call them," Bush said in a speech to New Jersey business leaders.
War is hell. Call my agent.
The CBS News American Idol Power Hour. Viacom, owner of networks CBS and MTV among many others, is aggresively pushing lucrative
bribes offers for Private Jessica Lynch to get her on CBS News, including the possibility of her own video-hosting program on MTV and special editions of TRL. Corporate consolidation the way it is, are we in an era where synergy allows news-media-owning companies to offer not just material profit but flat-out media iconization in exchange for a good story? To put it another way: have we gone beyond using the news to promote entertainment owned by the same company to using entertainment as the currency to flat-out buy the news?
You report, we kill you
Turning the tanks on the reporters The Observer's Phillip Knightley writes that Iraq will go down as the war when journalists seemed to become a target. Predicted here, discussed "in progress" here. The BBC, Al-Jazeera, and the US Committee to Protect Journalists thought it prudent to find out from the Pentagon what steps they could take to protect their correspondents if war came to Iraq... All three organisations concluded that the Pentagon was determined to deter western correspondents from reporting any war from the 'enemy' side; would view such journalism in Iraq as activity of 'military significance', and might well bomb the area.
You ever see the X-Files?
The real reason we invaded Iraq! The Von Doniken explanation for Iraq Ataq. This is wierd stuff, folks. But it does raise an interesting question: should Earthly politics reflect galactic defense and solar interests?

The New Sculpture in Fardus Square: "The last thing artists think about is politics. Politicians get paid to talk, that's the opposite of what artists do."
questions are for terrorists
At first, it appeared that the effort to begin a public probe into the manipulation of intelligence that formed the foundation of the case for the Iraq war was shaking out as bipartisan, with John Warner, and eventually John McCain on board. Each day we would hear of another Senator or Representative pushing harder for an open review of exactly who pulled which string. It only took a few minutes this morning for all of that momentum to cease to exist. ...
Rep. Henry Waxman has written an (extensively footntoed and juicy) open letter to President Bush demanding answers about "misrepresenting evidence" against Iraq. Waxman is unique among an ever-growing numer of pitchfork-wielders as a Congressman who had supported the war. He wrote of the use of forged evidence about alleged nuclear transactions between Niger and Iraq:

wolfowitz spills the beans "Let's look at it simply. The most important difference between North Korea and Iraq is that economically, we just had no choice in Iraq. The country swims on a sea of oil." - is telling the truth a new policy of the current administration?
Khaki and Camo
Paul Krugman writes that the Bush administration will fight a "khaki election" next year, taking advantage of the general good feeling after the Iraq war. The original khaki election was the British election of 1900, contested during the Boer War. Our armed forces don't really wear khaki so much anymore and I think we need a new term. I suggest calling 2004 the "Camo Election." Any better suggestions?
I'm not reading this. This is bullshit.
Dissent in the ranks. US Secretary of State Colin Powell was under persistent pressure from the Pentagon and White House to include questionable intelligence in his report on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction he delivered at the United Nations last February, source: US News and World Report Magazine. According to the report, the draft contained such questionable material that Powell lost his temper, throwing several pages in the air and declaring, "I'm not reading this. This is bullshit."
Useful Idiots
U.S. Insiders Say Iraq Intel Deliberately Skewed "Vince Cannistraro, a former chief of Central Intelligence Agency counterterrorist operations, said he knew of serving intelligence officers who blame the Pentagon for playing up "fraudulent" intelligence, "a lot of it sourced from the Iraqi National Congress of Ahmad Chalabi." The marines are looking, but they can't find a damn thing. So... were Bush and company played by the INC, or were the American people played by Team Bush?

Intelligence Community Uncrossing Fingers?
Intelligence expert does new kind of spin (as in the 180 degree kind). Intelligence expert (and former National Security Advisor) Kenneth Pollack appeared on NPR [scroll to 3rd entry for full audio] to retract statements that he made on the same show in November. Pollack seems to be the first major wonk to call change his mind not on a single, tangible intelligence claim, but on the broader rationale for war in Iraq, and on the reliability of American intelligence in general.
U.S. says Iraq may have junked toxic arms
U.S. says Iraq may have junked toxic arms Thus spake Rummy in a speech. We know they have them. If we can not find them it is because they got rid of them. But that still means they had them at one time, right? Question: what are those top scientists and Bath party members telling their captors wherever they are being held for questioning? Or is too important to reveal too.

"The International Committee of the Red Cross so far has been denied access to what the organisation believes could be as many as 3,000 prisoners held in searing heat [near Baghdad airport.] All other requests to inspect conditions under which prisoners are being held have been met with silence or been turned down."
Iraqi newspapers
Al-Muajaha, "The Iraqi Witness," is a new independent newspaper in Baghdad that's also published online. In fact, new newspapers are appearing in Iraq almost every day, though many are mouthpieces for political parties. I find this proliferation of information to be a good sign.
And solitaire's the only game in town.... A topical twist on a typical office timewaster.
Robert Byrd, American Hero
Robert Byrd speaks to the Senate, May 21, 2003 Regarding the situation in Iraq, it appears to this Senator that the American people may have been lured into accepting the unprovoked invasion of a sovereign nation, in violation of long-standing International law, under false premises. There is ample evidence that the horrific events of September 11 have been carefully manipulated to switch public focus from Osama Bin Laden and Al Queda who masterminded the September 11th attacks, to Saddam Hussein who did not...

Life can be a beautiful song...
Well, what to say? I am a journalist and writer on staff at a major magazine. Best part about my job is meeting fascinating people and traveling to interesting places. I also love the arts--particularly music, which I play a little--theatre and literature. But, more than anything else, I love friendship and spending time with my friends--talking, sharing some wine and much laughter. I am often quiet in social situations, but open up when one-on-one. Recently, I have taken up songwriting, which has become an interesting adventure. I am looking for someone who enjoys life and values friendship and family. I am an open and accepting individual of other people and like getting to know those with different life experiences than mine. What else am I looking for? Someone to spend time with, to share what is good in life, to discover new and mutual enjoyments.

Forsberg sent to AHL
Nov 7, 2013, 2:23 PM EDT
Predators rookie forward Filip Forsberg (a.k.a. the kid the Caps traded for Martin Erat) has apparently been assigned to AHL Milwaukee, with 22-year-old winger Taylor Beck getting the call up to the big club.
Forsberg, 19, has one goal and four assists in 11 games for Nashville this season; however, he's seen his ice time decrease dramatically in his past few outings. Last night, he played just 6:42 in the Preds' 6-4 win over the Avs.
Preds blog On The Forecheck notes that head coach Barry Trotz said earlier this week he'd like Forsberg to get more ice time, and that's exactly what he should get with Milwaukee. The Admirals play Friday, Saturday and Sunday on the road versus Texas, Texas (again), and San Antonio.
Nashville plays Friday in Winnipeg and Sunday in New Jersey.

text: Weird Wide Web Weird Wide WebLivingMoneyScienceEuropeSouth Africa News Desk on Dec 15, 2011 @ 12:52 PMDec 15, 2011 @ 12:52 PM PublishedMission underway to rescue Ukraine's "vodka bears"Angel Angelv, center, with his colleague Todor and dancing bear 'Gosho' perform on the streets of Sofia, Bulgaria for small change. The bear is pierced through his nose and led on a metal pole, a tether that keeps him from attacking humans.An animal welfare group is on a mission to rescue dozens of "vodka bears" in Ukraine. The brown bears are so named because they are forced to drink vodka and then perform in hotels and restaurants for money."Bears can also be found with their owners performing to passers by at petrol stations throughout the country," the animal rescue group Four Paws International said.South Africa-based vet Dr. Amir Khalil, who has also helped rescue "dancing bears" in Bulgaria, said the animals are locked in tiny cages.South Africa's Eyewitness News reported:Khalil said it was barbaric to keep brown bears who roam up to 40 km [25 miles] a day in the wild in tiny cages and to turn them into alcoholics.The group Four Paws announced this week it has signed cooperation agreements to create a new nature reserve for brown bears near Ukraine's border with Hungary.The plan is to rescue around 80 bears and move them to the new reserve, called the Brown Bear Rehabilitation Center, located in the National Nature Park Synevyr. Some bear owners have agreed to release their bears, while others will be forced to do so, the group said.The nature reserve will be provided with a "bear ambulance" to rescue and transfer the vodka-drinking bears in the coming months.

Picture: Justin Bieber appears on NBC's 'The Ellen Degeneres Show' showing off his new haircut USA - 23.02.11 This is a PR photo.
Justin Bieber was left starstruck on daytime TV on Wednesday (23Feb11) when the singer's ice hockey hero, Wayne Gretzky, paid him a surprise visit on the set of U.S. chat show THE TALK.
The Baby hitmaker, 17, was playing a game of air hockey on air with co-host Holly Robinson Peete when she called for some help - and introduced the Canadian great onstage.
The retired sportsman, who was accompanied by his young daughter Emma, took over from the actress and the game ended in a 1-1 draw.
Gretzky then presented Bieber with his very own replica jersey, bearing the sporting legend's name on the back with his number 99, complete with an autographed message.
A stunned Bieber gasped, "No way", before shaking hands with Gretzy.
He later joked with The Talk presenters, including Sharon Osbourne and Leah Remini, "Why'd you do that to me? You made me look like a huge groupie or something! No, I'm a huge fan. It was great and that was awesome."
But it wasn't Bieber's first time meeting Gretzky - he came face-to-face with the sports great at the age of six, when the singer was playing in a local hockey competition: "I played in Bradford, where he's from, and he was there at the tournament."

John Logan: 'We've been expecting you, Mr Pan'
Bond's scriptwriter tells Holly Williams about the people who inspired two children's classics
Holly Williams
Holly Williams is an arts and features writer for The Independent on Sunday.
Saturday 16 March 2013
On the surface, screenwriter and playwright John Logan's latest characters couldn't be more different. There was his Bond, James Bond, a damaged, Martini-swilling, villain-chasing, girl-getting Bond – and the highest grossing 007 ever in Skyfall. Now there are Peter and Alice, in his play of the same name – the real people on whom J M Barrie's Peter Pan and Lewis Carroll's Alice were based, and who did actually meet once. You're thinking children's books and youthful innocence, Neverland and Wonderland ….
But Logan is convinced that the trick to making both Skyfall and Peter and Alice, starring Judi Dench and Ben Whishaw, work for an audience, be they popcorn-munchers or sauvignon-sippers, is taking the characters seriously.
"I have no interest in light plays. I'm only interested in ..." – he pauses – "... plumbing something serious." And the 51-year-old American chalks up Skyfall's huge success to a similar approach. Although happiest in the theatre, he insists he's also "deadly serious" about film work (which includes scripts for Hugo, Sweeney Todd, The Aviator and Gladiator).
Logan is quick and sharp, as swift to laugh impishly as he is to make these unembarrassed statements of solemn sincerity. It clearly pays off; while Skyfall was stylish and stuffed with thrilling setpieces, it also gave Bond a new gravity. "We took the character seriously, we took the world seriously, there were consequences to the action. People liked seeing that behind the Martini and the Aston Martin and the tuxedo, there's a very flawed man. We always talked about this as Bond re-appraising his life. It was a movie about resurrection."
I ask if being a gay man might have affected his version of Bond. Logan, now signed up for the next two Bond movies, suggests it was more that he was one of many "first-timers" working on it, bringing a fresh approach to the franchise. Although, he adds with a twinkle, it may have helped in that interrogation scene between Daniel Craig and Javier Bardem.
He quickly adds that, actually, a "homoerotic undertone" is present in Ian Fleming's books (all of which Logan had, coincidentally, read the year before director Sam Mendes got him on board.) "We thought it was time to really embrace it .... It was a juicy scene to write."
There's nothing quite so camply arch in Peter and Alice; the script is very moving. Dench plays the 80-year-old Alice Liddell Hargreaves, who meets the 30-year-old Peter Llewelyn Davies in 1932. It explores the impact of their fictional counterparts on their lives, as a burden or a solace. For both, as adults, experienced significant personal losses, largely due to the First World War.
There are also uncanny thematic parallels: both Peter and Alice were charming children who entranced brilliant, older men, who immortalised them in children's books. But both these men had a particular interest in these children as symbols of innocence. And both books (though particularly Peter Pan) have within them "a somewhat sentimental and somewhat deeply moving awareness of time passing, that children grow up," explains Logan, adding that "that's what Peter and Alice is really about."
The fictional central characters of Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland also appear onstage, interacting with their older counterparts, and bringing their memories to life. Of course, Logan also had to tackle the issue – particularly sensitive in the current climate – of where exactly Barrie's and Carroll's interest in children lay.
"Nothing in the evidence suggests that [they] were actually paedophiles, or abused the children in any physical way," says Logan. "However, the more significant point is that their single-minded intensity and love for these children was unhealthy."
When he first read about the real-life encounter, did it get the synapses firing straight away?
"It did. It was 20 years ago .... I really couldn't forget about it." But then Logan established a working relationship with director Michael Grandage – on his last play Red, which premiered at the Donmar Warehouse in London, and transferred to New York, where it swept the Tony awards. In Grandage, Logan felt he had found the man to tackle this story with. They have an extremely close working relationship; like brothers, Logan suggests.
"I knew [Peter and Alice] was going to be a tragedy, and I would never have gone there without a friend."
The pair are also working on Grandage's first film-directing project, Genius, about Max Perkins, the editor for Ernest Hemingway and F Scott Fitzgerald. It's another script 20 years in the planning: "... all screenwriters have one project that's their bear cub, that they protect like a grizzly bear, and Genius is mine," says Logan. "Working with Michael, I realised I had another grizzly."
Logan is also a passionate advocate for the Michael Grandage Company's approach to widening access: for the five plays in this first 12-month season at the Noel Coward theatre, there will be 100,000 tickets at £10.
"The great fear that all theatre people have is that we'll become grand opera. We'll be so over-priced, we'll become a museum thing .... So the commitment to just make less money but bring in younger people is absolutely vital and every working person in the theatre has got to make the sacrifice."
The pair have still managed to attract starry names (Daniel Radcliffe, Jude Law, David Walliams), and Dench and Whishaw seem perfect for this play. "They were our dream cast, and they thankfully said yes," says Logan, adding with a chuckle that "it helped that we were all doing Skyfall at the time – we could have the odd discussion over the catering table!"
He's tight-lipped about the next two Bond films, although it has been announced that Mendes won't be involved. I can't winkle a single plot detail out of him; he apologises, saying that work on Bond is "like you work for MI6 – you say nothing."
He speaks briefly about other projects: a big-screen version of the musical Jersey Boys (stuck in "budget hell"), and a film of American punk pioneer and poet Patti Smith's brilliant memoir Just Kids, which he is writing "very privately" with her. "Patti is just the best. She's one of those great human beings, and just to be in her world is a wonderful thing," he says.
Then there's Penny Dreadful, his first TV series, with Mendes again. It takes "iconic characters of Gothic literature" – think Frankenstein and Dracula – and "turns them inside out, treats them as complex people".
Bond will keep Logan coming back to London which, although he has houses in New York and Los Angeles, "feels more like home than anywhere". He loves our audiences, too, admitting the clichés are true: "British audiences are more reserved ... but people take theatre very seriously. It truly is a religion in London, which is why I hope all my plays premiere here. [But] the joy in America is that if they think it's funny, they laugh loud; if it's sad, they're bawling their eyes out."
Logan still finds watching his own plays, with an audience, terrifying. "People say, 'You must have nerves of steel to walk into these rooms, [with] Martin Scorsese, Sam Mendes, Ridley Scott ....' Not compared with sitting through the previews of one of your own plays: that takes nerves of steel."
'Peter and Alice' is at the Noel Coward Theatre, London, until 1 June (michaelgrandagecompany.com)

Lake Forest earns spot in sectional final
Mar 11, 2015 11:07 PM - Rebounding is a pride thing for Evan Boudreaux. The 6-foot-8 Lake Forest senior expects himself to get every defensive rebound there is, and as many offensive rebounds as humanly possible. In leading the Scouts to a 54-47 victory over Evanston in a Class 4A sectional semifinal Wednesday at Waukegan, Boudreaux did pretty much that. He finished with 22 rebounds, to go along with a game-high 22 points.

While most Hollywood celebrities bring a small army along to any appearance or event, Kim Kardashian prefers to fly solo.
"I travel alone," the reality beauty, 32, said in a behind-the-scenes video of her photoshoot for ELLE magazine's March issue, explaining why she arrived to the high fashion shoot by herself. "I don't have an entourage… I'm sick of my family right now and they're my only entourage!"
Kim, who is expecting a baby with boyfriend Kanye West, said she finds having a group with her can be distracting on shoots.
"I like to vibe out by ourselves and sometimes when you have lots of other people there, it gets in the way," she explained.
Kim worked with stylist Nicola Formichetti for the ELLE photos – a "dream come true" for the curvy starlet.
"I love being transformed and I love your vision of who you think I am - that's always so inspiring for me and so interesting seeing someone's take on me," she told Nicola in the video. "When I work with someone I really respect, I work with trust. Even if I'm not comfortable in something, I trust your vision to push me a little bit."
Check out Kim's photos in ELLE's March issue – on newsstands Tuesday.

There has to be a spark
I just recently moved back to Colorado from Pennsylvania. When I'm not working I like to spend my free time working out, watching movies, golfing, and grabbing drinks with friends. I am originally from Boulder so naturally I love the great outdoors and snowboarding. I am a pretty laid back guy who likes to go out and have a good time. I am not at home in a big club but am always willing to give things a try. Going to sporting events is a pleasure of mine, especially Broncos games. I am a medical resident so I work a lot and have to take advantage of the precious free time that I am afforded. It would be great to find a lady that enjoys getting dressed up for a night on the town just as much as staying in and watching a good movie. I enjoy eating well and staying active so ideally she would too. I would really like to find a lady who is looking for a relationship with long term potential.
