CLEVELAND (AP) - No matter how well the Cincinnati Reds have played, they continue to struggle in Cleveland. The Reds look to avoid a sixth consecutive road loss to the Indians when the interleague rivals continue their series Tuesday night. Cincinnati (38-28) outscored Cleveland 24-9 while sweeping the Indians at home last week and had little trouble scoring runs Monday, but its six-game winning streak came to an end with a 10-9 loss at Progressive Field. The NL Central-leading Reds have won eight of 12 on the road overall, but they are mired in a five-game skid at Cleveland. Joey Votto and Jay Bruce homered Monday, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Indians. Reds pitchers have yielded 22 runs and 26 hits in the club's last two games at Progressive Field, including a 12-4 defeat May 22, 2011. "We couldn't stop them," Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker said of Monday's loss. "They couldn't really stop us. They just got one more run. I told somebody early, this is going to be a 10-9 ga...

I was watching TV the other night, but wasn't really paying much attention, and they were reviewing an upcoming movie to be released that trys to do a "psychological" profile of the terrorists and portrays them (whether intentional or unintentional I don't know), in a sympathetic light. Is this the movie by chance?

I think Greengrass is a very good director, and he makes films that aren't emotionally manipulative. I trust it not to be just a 2-dimensional patriotic fest.

Some of you who dont want to see it i really dont understand, Yes its a terrible thing that happened, but does that not mean we shouldn't have things such as movies and documentaries to remind us? Why cant we honor those on flight 93 that saved possibly thousands of others lives? It angers me to feel that some of you have a problem with having a movie like this coming out. Its simple if you dont like it, you dont have to go see it. I'm sure the box office will show other wise when this comes out and will show the American people do want to see it.

For me, the litmus test would be this... Are the victims' families mostly satisfied with the finished product? If the answer is "yes" then IMO, we honor the victims' memories by seeing the film and enlightening ourselves about who they were and what they went through. If the movie is truthful, it will help us understand the situation more than we did before we saw it, and that's a good thing.
How is that possible, though? We already have the transcripts of the cell phone calls from inside the cabin and we already have the transcripts of the cockpit voice recorder. We already "know" everything we can possibly know about what happened in that plane. Everything else is conjecture.Originally Posted by Unassisted
For example, how many passengers will be portrayed as bumrushing the cockpit? Any number larger than three is pure conjecture. Will they be portrayed as succesfully gaining access to the cockpit? Because the voice recorder suggests they didn't get in. What role will the surviving stewardess have in the attempt to retake the plane? Any role at all will be pure conjecture. And so on.

SuitCase Dances
An upcoming show at Charles Smith Wines features three dance pieces.
WALLA WALLA — Charles Smith Wines tasting room will soon see a performance that doesn't usually step into the private venues of downtown businesses.
On April 27, SuitCase Dances will feature several modern dance performances that incorporate a number of theatrical and poetic elements.
But what the dances won't be are the standard community theater performances where the music starts, the dancing begins, someone sings, the dancing and music end and everyone claps.
"We are trying to change people's perceptions here and trying to get them out of the recital format," professional dancer and choreographer Vicki Lloid said.
Modern dance — in this case the type of freeform dancing that's become popular and is still strongly associated with the 1960s and 1970s — is what will be performed at the winery tasting room, 35 S. Spokane St.
Usually, such cutting-edge contemporary dance performances are normally viewed on college campuses or in private venues in larger cities. In Walla Walla, SuitCase Dances will prove quite a change from the regular music scene of blues, rock and jazz.
If you go
An evening of dance performances, will be at Charles Smith Wines downtown tasting room, 35 S. Spokane St.
Performance: April 27 doors open .at 7 p.m., show at 8.
Admission: Adults $7.00, Students is $5.00
The Relatives, a comedy of eccentric relationships. Peter de Grasse and Vicki Lloid team up.
EVEN SO… Vicki Lloid's full-length work of poetry and dance commissioned for the Raymond Carver festival in Port Angeles.
Peter de Grasse solos in a work designed for this event.
Music: By Kristin Vining
About Raymond Carver
Raymond Carver was a celebrated poet and short story writer born May 28, 1938, in Clatskanie, Ore., and raised in Yakima. Carver wrote numerous stories that centered on characters who lived in the Pacific Northwest.
Some literary critics refer to him as America's Chekhov.
He is credited with having been instrumental in the revival of the American short story format.
Carver also lived many years in Port Angeles, Wash, where he died at age 50 and is buried.
This May 9-25, the 75th anniversary of his birth will be celebrated at the Raymond Carver Festival at Peninsula College.
"Mainly, what I am trying to do here is bring in events that haven't been done here, let alone in the greater Walla Walla area," event coordinator Emily Riley said. "I think it is going to be bizarre and totally eccentric and a really good time. And definitely something different."
As different as it may be, there will be some familiar elements.
"It is more theatrical. It is more accessible," Lloid said, noting that the production will include acting, singing, poetry and even a somewhat comical routine that will include cross-dressing.
SuitCase Dances will also feature a 34-year-old professional modern dancer who spent the first half of his life in Walla Walla.
"I left Walla Walla when I was 17 and now I am back where I started," Peter de Grasse said. And he was literally referring to the very studio in the top floor of the old Temple Bookstore building at 40 S. Colville St., where he practiced with Lloid and several other dancers on a Sunday morning.
De Grasse left Walla Walla as a teen to study theater dance in New York City. His studies and career eventually moved into the area of modern dance, where he has worked with professional European dance companies.
This academic year, however, de Grasse is a guest dance instructor at Whitman College. It was a chance to visit his hometown and do some dancing.
"I think modern dance is a thing that is challenging to appreciate because there is no automatic image to approach," de Grasse said. But he also noted that SuitCase Dances will incorporate some theatrical elements.
In additional to featuring performances by de Grasse and Lloid, SuitCase Dances will also give the audience a preview of work commissioned for the Raymond Carver Festival this May in Port Angeles, Wash.
The performances will include a number of Carver's poems, which will be read aloud and danced to in a choreography created by Lloid.
The dances are poignant, graceful, scarce on props, big on movement and accompanied by the musical compositions of Kristin Vining.
Even those that might not think they are fans of modern dance would enjoy SuitCase Dances and may end up asking for more.
"I am really hoping that will happen. Then we can do more of this. And that is what Peter and I are hoping," Lloid said.

The Informationist
by Taylor Stevens
No current Talk conversations about this book.
On the strength of glowing reviews and publishers' over-the-top PR, I've purchased four debut novels in as many weeks, all of them categorised as 'magnificent, original, outstanding, superb' etc.
Two of those I couldn't finish. Derivative, boring, repetitive. One I did finish but only through sheer willpower.
But _this_ book was the real thing. An amazing debut novel coming out of nowhere. Almost perfect -- just a couple of plot holes, one major, one minor, but both easily overlooked in the adrenaline rush of page-turning action and gut-wrenching characterisation.
What an amazing heroine Ms Stevens has created. Totally convincing and totally unforgettable.
Easily the best thriller I've read this year.
The Informationist is the ideal escapist read. It's exciting and fast-paced with a great mystery at its core. The protagonist is more than a little over the top - she's a brilliant, badass, emotionally damaged adrenaline junkie with ninja-like skills and a tragic past who speaks 22 languages. Ridiculous, I know, but it was so much fun.
A big part of what makes the story interesting is the locale. The author truly brings the setting to life with vivid descriptions and insight into the culture, politics, and socioeconomics of Equatorial Guinea and its neighboring countries. Despite the noticeable (and slightly disturbing) lack of good-guy POC characters, I couldn't help but enjoy myself as I explored a part of the world completely different from what I normally read.
The story gets surprisingly tense and emotional towards the end. Even though I guessed who the villain was early on, there were still plenty of surprises. I could hardly put it down. I definitely recommend The Informationist for mystery and thriller fans, and perhaps some romance readers as well.
I started out thinking I wasn't going to like this novel, but ended up really enjoying it. In the first few pages, there were several bits of language that seemed really clunky and poorly written, and I was about to decide I didn't want to bother trying to read something with such distractingly poor writing,when....the story reached out and grabbed me. I don't know if the technical aspects of the book got better, or whether my mind was just swept away and stopped noticing.
In some ways, the story is the standard spy/suspense plot: Gorgeous/handsome person overcomes tragic background, trains hard, and becomes a super-skilled, super-stealthy, super-deadly, Superhero(ine). It hits all the checkpoints, from genius IQ to physical perfection to incomparable skills at martial arts. Robert Ludlum updated for the 20-teens. And yet, somehow, it captured my fancy, and I was able to overlook all that. I think it was the fact that the author spent considerable time (for this type of book) on letting the reader know how the protagonist got to be the person she had become, and why. Not with pathos - I never really felt sorry for the character despite her having undergone horrific experiences - but with a sense of "Yeah, that happened, and I've dealt with it." Kind of refreshing!
So, not a great book (in my opinion) but an enjoyable read, and I will have an eye out for future entries in the Vanessa Michael Munroe series. I like it -- a solid three-stars.
The protagonist was absolutely unbelievable--really, deliberately dislocating her thumb, twice, to wriggle out of handcuffs?--but even I will suspend disbelief if the plot merits it. In this case, however, I found this "thriller" ultimately to be boring. I will not be continuing this series.
Absolutely brilliant. I was uncertain about whether or not I would be as wrapped up in the first book, The Informationist, considering I started Steven's series with the most recent book, The Doll. I was concerned I would have all the information needed and happily I was very wrong and I am ever so glad I decided to begin with Taylor Steven's first Vanessa Michael Munroe book. I highly recommend The Informationist to anyone who enjoys fast paced, well-written suspense/thriller novels. I am currently reading the second book, The Innocent and hopefully Taylor Steven's is working on the 4th book. I am officially addicted to the series.
The Informationist pushes every one of my buttons: exotic locale, sassy and competent protagonist, crisp dialogue and nonstop action. A fine debut—can't wait for the sequel!
Stevens has penned a fast-paced, gripping, edgy mystery with a heroine whom even Lisbeth Salander would admire. Recommended for all contemporary thriller fiction fans who like thrillers similar to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

5 Songs About The Devil – #3 The Rolling Stones' Sympathy for the Devil [VIDEO]
This devilish song presents the misunderstood Beelzebub as a mere bystander in tragic world events and horrors.
This devilish song presents the misunderstood Beelzebub as a mere bystander in tragic world events and horrors.
Ginger Baker recently told a reporter, among other things, that the Rolling Stones are "not good musicians." He also had some disparaging words to say about fellow classic rockers the Who and Bob Dylan.
The Rolling Stones will release a DVD and Blu-ray of their July 6 and July 13 concerts at London's Hyde Park. The set, 'The Rolling Stones Sweet Summer Sun – Hyde Park Live,' will come out on Nov. 11.
It took just one bid in a recent eBay auction to secure a barely used rock collectible, when a fan dropped $3,750 on a Rolling Stones pinball machine. The 2011 game, featuring the pared-down current four-piece edition of the band, includes a ramp styled after the Stones' famous tongue logo.
The Rolling Stones' June 29 appearance at the Glastonbury Festival this summer will headline a weeklong slate of special concert programs on the Palladia cable network. The Glastonbury special will also include performances by other artists, like Elvis Costello.
The Rolling Stones are suing a German clothing company over its use of the band's famous logo. According to NME, the manufacturer has appropriated the Stones' popular mouth logo on posters and other promotional items found in its stores.
Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese and the Mafia. Every movie buff knows they're ingredients that have been mixed together more than a few times, but it's (almost) always a worthwhile combination.
The Rolling Stones' "50 and Counting" tour has resulted in yet another milestone for the legendary rock group. In an interesting bit of symmetry, their 'Hyde Park Live' album is their 50th album to reach the Billboard 200 chart.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) killed more than three dozen Canadians in 2003 and prompted the country's biggest-ever rock concert. The Rolling Stones led the way in organizing what was unofficially known as SARSstock and SARSapalooza. AC/DC, the Guess Who and Rush were among the rock bands signed on for the event, which happened 10 years ago today.
A little more than a week after the Rolling Stones wrapped up a pair of weekend concerts at Hyde Park, an album documenting the events is now available on iTunes.
Every Rolling Stones show comes with a certain amount of expected drama, but even by the band's elevated standards, their 1972 tour was especially crazy.
In addition to barbecues, vacations and oppressive humidity, July always brings with it a spell of best-of-the-year-so-far lists. The newest one of interest to classic rock fans reveals that Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen and the Rolling Stones have taken win, place and show in the list of the Top Grossing Concert Acts for the first half of 2013.

Racist attitudes in Australia threaten to scuttle much-needed foreign investment, a former senior Australian minister told a conference in New Zealand.
"We are seeing some very unsavory aspects and frankly nonsense critique about the impact of foreign investment," said Nick Sherry, a former financial services minister and assistant treasurer who in over two decades in politics helped oversee foreign investment and stock market reforms.
Attitudes toward investment from.China and the Middle East are particularly dire, he said. "It's irrational, it's xenophobic and in some cases it's frankly racist," Mr. Sherry told participants at the Institute of Finance Professionals conference in Auckland.

• Machine Learning, from the University of Washington.7
More recently, Harvard and MIT announced a joint partnership called edX "to offer online learning to millions of people around the world. EdX will offer Harvard and MIT classes online for free."8 The press release9 accompanying that announcement notes that online students may receive "certificates of mastery" if they demonstrate adequate knowledge of the course material. It also states that "edX will release its learning platform as open-source software so it can be used by other universities and organizations that wish to host the platform themselves." The press release goes on to say that Harvard and MIT faculty will use data from edX "to research how students learn and how technologies can facilitate effective teaching both on-campus and online . . . [to study] which teaching methods and tools are most successful."
At the same time that mathematics and statistics departments are feeling these pressures, there is also the challenge noted at the beginning of Chapter 5: the belief in some circles that more lower-division mathematics should be taught by other departments. The 2012 report of the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology on STEM education at the undergraduate level recommended that this hypothesis be actively explored through a set of perhaps 200 experiments across the nation. As stated in Chapter 5, the committee agrees that the existing mathematics curriculum would benefit from a significant updating of both content and teaching techniques. There is a real chance that if mathematicians do not do this, others will, and that could exacerbate the erosion in mathematics service teaching that is likely to occur due to cost pressures.
Another important trend of concern to all STEM disciplines is that graduate enrollments from overseas are likely to go down over time as the quality of overseas universities improves, because employment opportunities now exist worldwide for mathematical sciences talent. Over half (52 percent in the 2009-2010 academic year) of the Ph.D. degrees awarded annually in the mathematical sciences by U.S. universities are to non-U.S. citizens.10 Until now, a large fraction of them have continued their careers in the United States, and the nation has benefited greatly in recent decades

Gene Weingarten writes a weekly humor column, Below the Beltway, for The Washington Post's Sunday Magazine. This piece is adapted from his online chat this past week.
I was waiting in line at a CVS on Monday, which is how I ended up leafing through a sleazy gossip tabloid (the Globe), which is how I learned that PAUL ANKA BEDDED A TEEN ANNETTE FUNICELLO RIGHT UNDER HER MOM'S NOSE.
This tantalizing if fossilized disclosure was excerpted from a new autobiography by Anka, the 1950s teenage-heartthrob-turned-21st-century-Vegas-lounge lizard. Minutes later, when I got home, I learned that Funicello, the perky 1950s Mousketeer, had just died after a decades-long battle with multiple sclerosis.

Originally written on Fox Sports Detroit | Last updated 1/25/13
DETROIT Tigers manager Jim Leyland is going to talk about his rookie closer, Bruce Rondon, and his need to turn the page so often in the months ahead that Leyland will either lead to a revival in reading or of an old Bob Seger song. You remember Turn the Page by Ann Arbors Rockin Robert Seger, right? Well, anyway, Rondon, 22, is getting a shot at replacing Jose Valverde, who collapsed in the 2012 playoffs after saving 110 games over three seasons with Detroit. Im going to spend a lot of time with him, Leyland said. He dont know that yet. I have to find out if he is he callused enough to do this or to turn the page. Turning the page after a blown save was something Valverde, who has 277 career saves and remains unsigned on the free agent market, did exceedingly well until the very end. He has been a very good but not great closer, saving 83 percent of the games entered in save situations. I never once saw Valverde floored about losing a save after a game until 2012, and he sail...

Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I center text in an Excel cell?-- MV
Hey, MV. You know, every now and then we get asked a question and we think to ourselves, "Wow, how many times do you suppose we've answered this question?" And, of course, when we go to double-check we find out that we've never answered that question; instead, it just seems like we should have answered the question somewhere along the line. We just didn't remember.
Before you ask, this has nothing to do with the Scripting Guys getting old; in fact, thanks to hard work and clean living none of the Scripting Guys are getting old. And those are not grey hairs; they've just been bleached out by the sun.
Note. Sure it's tough, but if you're going to make your home in sun-drenched Seattle then having your hair bleached out - so much so that your hair begins to look grey - is just one of those things you have to learn to live with.
At any rate, it turns out that we've never told people how to center text in an Excel cell. Well, until now, that is:
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objExcel.Visible = True
Set objWorkbook = objExcel.Workbooks.Add
Set objWorksheet = objWorkbook.Worksheets(1)
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 1) = "A"
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 2) = "B"
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 3) = "C"
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 2).HorizontalAlignment = -4108
At the risk of spoiling the suspense, we'll tell you that the only line of code you really need to worry about is the last one; the rest of the script simply creates an Excel spreadsheet and adds some data to it. To do that, the script first creates an instance of the Excel.Application object and then sets the Visible property to True; that gives us a running instance of Excel that's visible on screen. We use the Add method to add a new workbook to our instance of Excel, then use this line of code to bind to the first worksheet in that workbook:
Set objWorksheet = objWorkbook.Worksheets(1)
Of course, a script that centers text in a cell isn't all that impressive unless you actually have some text in that cell. Therefore, we use these three lines of code to put the letters A, B, and C into cells A1, B1, and C1, respectively:
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 1) = "A"
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 2) = "B"
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 3) = "C"
In case you're wondering, that gives us a spreadsheet that looks like this:
Now how do we center the text in one of the cells? Well, this line of code centers the text for cell B1 (that is, cell row 1, column 2):
objWorksheet.Cells(1, 2).HorizontalAlignment = -4108
As you can see, all we have to do is set the value of the HorizontalAlignment property of the cell to -4108; that will center the text in the cell. If we wanted the cell to be right-aligned, we'd set HorizontalValue to -4152; set the value to -4131 to left-align the text.
Run the script, and the finished spreadsheet will look like this, with the text in cell B1 centered:
Another day, another question answered. Speaking of which, how many times have we answered a question about centering text in Excel?
Oh, right: once. The sun appears to be bleaching out our brains as well as our hair ….
How can I center complete row in excel?
Try something like this first you center all the cell range you want.
then you put the value on the left most cell.
then you look at it centered. here is the code:
$Sheet.Range("A1", "B1").MergeCells = $True
$Sheet.Range("A1", "B1").horizontalalignment = -4108
$Sheet.Cells.Item(1,1) = "november"
Let me know if useful.

The Weekender features the best work, the most brilliant arts writing and some of the more, ahem, irreverent things that dance across our desktops in any given week. All hail the weekend!
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you, it's strange what desire will make foolish people do. I'd never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you, I'd never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you. No I don't want to fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart) No I don't want to fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart) With you. With you (this girl is only gonna break your heart) What a wicked game you played to make me feel this way, what a wicked thing to do to let me dream of you, what a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way, what a wicked thing to do to make me dream of you. And I don't want to fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart) No I don't want to fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart) With you…
What's been your best ever weekend? Mine was only a few months back when I had pizza on Friday night, then pizza for lunch on Saturday and then pizza again on Saturday evening! Hat trick! We don't know what the Weekender gets up to on his days off, I imagine his weekend smells of petrol and feels like cheap lace or bananas. Best to leave that stone unturned.
Ever go on one of those ancestry websites where they track down your long lost relatives? You always go in believing that you're a descendent of Christopher Columbus or a second cousin of Cher and then end up a bit upset at the realisation your descendants were so poor and stupid that they couldn't even afford to get to the census office. The Weekender descended from a long line of slightly crude, slapdash TV shows and magazines over the years, yes it's true. The Weekender is actually the lovechild of Viz Magazine and Fun House. What a night of loving that was. Always wear a condom.
The Weekender is much like a party bag you may receive at the end of a birthday gathering. The thing is with this party bag however is that the slice of chocolate gateau is a urinal cake, the lollipop is a bloodied handgun, the necklace is a string of chipolatas and the yo-yo is a wooden box of anonymous teeth. You can only imagine what the party was like.
Alrighty then you gorgeous lot. It's time to unclog your peepers, show off the capitalist shackles and go bask in two blissful days of cultural, gastronomic and, sure, dancey goodness. We won't judge you. Heck The Weekender's your pal, lining up the shots at the bar while you get freaky on the floor. So bottoms up one and all; let's live, love and laugh like it's our last weekend on earth!
"Ahoy ye thar Weekenders!" Shouted the withered old man from the top of the lighthouse, pipe dangling from his fishy beard. The good ship Weekender tumbled over the waves and rolled towards the bay. The Weekenders on board this barnacled vessel were busy inside the entertainment hall, gambling, boozing and pinching the bottoms of the caterers. One man said it was the best trip he'd ever had, but he probably had one too many.
It always seems to be Friday, doesn't it? What's that sound? Hm? Oh, that's just the sound of your life rushing past before your eyes. No you can't have another one. Why not, you ask? Because life isn't fair. It isn't long either, this train ride's going to be up before you know it. So sit back, buy an overpriced coffee and put your feet on the seat in front (naughty). We've got some things we want to show you…
Picture this. It's Friday afternoon, you're buried beneath the mountain of shredding and photocopying and proofreading and accounts that you have yet to get through before you can officially crack open the Bacardi Breezers and get the party started. The end of the week is the troubled water. Let the Weekender be your bridge. We'll carry you through, just like Simon and Garfunkel, if Simon and Garfunkel spoke nonsense and sung all their songs through a mouthful of hula hoops and were obsessed with Youtube clips of animals falling off things. Are you ready?
Hello Weekenders! Now is the time that you pack up your bags, jump into your nice red cars and drive grinning into the distance for a wholesome weekend of smiles, laughs and love. Just kidding, no one does that anymore. You'll probably be sitting in a sh*tty Corsa at a service station somewhere outside of Watford, hating your families and chewing morosely on a pastie whilst the seatbelt chafes against your crotch, which will result in a rash. Ah well.
Would you rather be a potato or an apple? I ask this because I am currently looking at one of each. Apples are shiny, sweet and get on with everyone really well, but potatoes have got this kind of subterranean edge. Different shapes and sizes, a bit rough, a bit hairy, go well with meat and booze. I'm a potato. 100% potato. Welcome to The Weekender.
There's something in the water at It's Nice That towers (it's more of a bunker actually) at the moment. Everyone's gyrating and that to a whole bunch of smooth tunes. There's a party afoot and it seems like this is where it's at. So let's get a party going, let's get a party going, now it's time to party and we'll party hard. Let's get a party going, let's get a party going, when it's time to party we will always party hard. Anyway, probably time to head home before someone loses an eye.
HELLO! It's a Friday and we're spending our time reminiscing about the time Daphne and Celeste got bottles of sh*t and p*ss thrown at them at Reading Festival in the year 2000. There's only one video of it online, and luckily it gives you exactly what you want and more. Despite being absolutely pelted with anything any grubby festival-goer could get their mitts on, Celeste (or Daphne, I don't know which one's which) still grinned and said it was "cool that they were throwing stuff!" Good on yer, girls. That's just the attitude we're looking for here at The Weekender. Onwards…
I'm doing a dance but you can't see it so you'll need to imagine it. It's a special friday Weekender celebratory dance. Imagine a cross between a dirty Tango and a stadium-tour-choreographed pop medley. That's the one! It's fun, no? So why not join in with your own little fandango, and believe (TESTIFY!) that we are so ruddy ready for a Friday. Let's do this.
Remember when you used to get left home alone as a treat and you'd do things like ride a mattress down the stairs or spray squirty cream straight into your mouth? Our editor Rob's been away this week. So far on the site in his absence we've had retro food, saucy embroidery, video games and sausage art. Well, when the cat's away…
In this crazy gameshow we call life, it's time to take that gamble that makes the host double-take and the audience gasp. Who is this maverick? I came with nothing. I'll take my chances. The wheel spins/box opens/answer flashes up. There's a pause. Drums provide staccato heartbeat mimicry. Your significant other in the front row covers his or her face. It's tense. It's impossible. It's crazy. It's… The Weekender!
This week two healthy and quite well-off young people gave birth to a baby boy – and the WHOLE WORLD lost their sh*t! Nah we're not trying to be edgy good on them – producing a king is pretty cool. But quick thing Twitter, ALL the jokes have now been done. Yep that one. And that one. That one is days old now. That one doesn't make sense. Oh wait because heir sounds a bit like hair? Yeah done. So at ease online wags, let's all just look ahead to two glorious days of revelry…
Alright you rowdy bunch, pipe down. You there, at the front, sit down and stop pushing the guy next to you. There's room for everyone. And you there, hovering at the back, come in or get the hell out. This is a serious business. And YOU, yeah you. You seem cool for a naked chick in a booth. Let's be pals some day. Anyway, don't get a nosebleed, don't get upset, we can't be naked and famous just yet. Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin.
This week The Weekender's got beef. It's spent an awful lot of time recently listening to the radio and has been plagued by the lack of heavyweight intellectual lyricism in modern music. For example: "(Look) I'm betting you like people, and I'm betting you love freak mode, and I'm betting you like girls that give love to girls and stroke your little ego. I bet you I'm guilty your honour, that's just how we live in my genre. Who in the hell done paved the road wider? There's only one flo, and one rida. I'm a damn shame, order more champagne, pull a damn hamstring tryna put it on ya. Bet your lips spin back around corner, slow it down baby take a little longer."
Friday's usually a fun day at It's Nice That that sees us frolicking about the studio like a small flock of sprightly lambs cavorting in a lush, green field, fresh from suckling the teats of our happy-go-lucky sheep mums (we've grossed ourselves out). But today it's swelteringly hot and all that youthful energy has drained right away. We'd like to say that this hasn't changed the tone of The Weekender, but even The Weekender is susceptible to the heat. So you'll find this week's instalment riddled with lethargy, cynicism and more than a dash of heat-induced ennui. You've been warned.
Friday has rolled across our hearts like a silky jazz vocal on a hackneyed-yet-tearjerking love song. Know what i mean? Well you shouldn't do – I'm talking utter nonsense. It was a trick! Hahahahahaha….hey wait! Come back, I'm sorry! Ok let's start over. Pray silence, for The Weekender…
Tragedy! When the feeling's gone and you can't go on it's tragedy! When you live in ancient Greece and your dad murders your sister for betraying the family and then you have a weird moment with your mum, it's tragedy! Where were we? Oh yeah, great news folks, it's the weekend and thus, like night follows day, it's The Weekender. Climb aboard, you're one of us now!
Hark my liege! Word reaches us from our scouts in the western valley that The Weekender and its forces advances apace. No sire, there's no time to send for the heralds we must flee this very night! You know what they say about The Weekender! It takes no prisoners. Now have your squire pack only what you need, we ride for safer ground immediately!
WELCOME! Welcome to the most fun you'll have this week. Now sit down and shut up. The Weekender is here to commandeer the awkward situation, to nibble the outside of the Kit Kat, to squeeze the cow's teat, to unhinge the hinges, to peel the rind from the fruit of life. Are you ready? Gloves on…
Are you getting used to the new Weekender design? We hope so. It's good to have a little switch-around sometimes, like when your mum moves the sofas around in the living room and you feel all dislocated for a while. But you know that when that feeling subsides you'll feel all at home again. So welcome home, here you are, in the warm, chubby, flour-brushed arms of The Weekender. Nuzzle in, reader, nuzzle in.
Finding it hard to care much about life these days? Let this round-up selection of life-affirmingly creative links and projects bring you back to your old, happy self. Okay, so "life-affirmingly creative" is maybe an exaggeration, but it's Friday and everyone exaggerates on Friday! Like your mate Craig who said he had fifteen pints that time. He didn't, Craig's a liar. Sort your shit life out, Craig.
Still not accustomed to the new-look Weekender? Finding it hard to navigate the choppy waters of loosely art and design-related nonsense? What's wrong with you? It's really quite simple! You see we start with six articles you DEFINITELY SHOULD NOT MISS THIS WEEK, follow it up with a look at the week's physical, through-the-letterbox post and then launch ourselves whole-heartedly into the novelty dregs of the beautiful internet. Think of it as the weekend supplement of your favourite newspaper except without any recipes for celeriac and kale breakfast bars or sentimental adverts for expensive watches. It's the cat's pyjamas! (If you still don't get it there's really no hope for you).
….and lo, Friday afternoon arrives and we crest it together like a well-built schooner cutting through the waves on a rolling (but NOT stormy) ocean. Back slaps all round gang! And our gift to you is the new look Weekender with Things, the usual nonsense and six articles you really should have read this week.
The weekend, eh? It's pretty darn perfect what with its social engagements and its long lazy mornings and its flagrant disregard for the mores of the working world (wear shoes? Don't think so mate). But here at It's Nice That we wondered whether there was a way to improve the weekend even just a little bit,. And so we are thrilled to introduce to you to our new Weekender section. It takesThe Weekender's rakish sense of web-based nonsense and merges it with our popular weekly look at the lovely lovely things we get sent to the studio each and every day. Then we add in some top content from the site over the past seven days, plus a few extras to boot.
Why you got to play that song so loud? Cos we want to! Cos we want to! Why you always hanging 'round in crowds? Cos we want to! Cos we want to! Why have you got to build a terrifyingly unstable nuclear reactor at exorbitant financial cost and devastating environmental ramifications putting us in mortal economic, ecological and existential danger? Cos we want to! Cos we want to! Oh, and that's ok is it mid-1990s Billie Piper? Is it? Sheesh. Let's do this.
This week The Weekender has spent most of its time 'a la Flashdance', in a skin-tight leotard and leg warmers gyrating provocatively at a floor-length mirror and mouthing sexy lyrics to itself. And why has this been the primary activity in The Weekender's week? Because of Daft Punk and Pharrell's new single of course; The Weekender can't resist that gorgeous man with his sensual lyrics, beautiful face and winning smile, nor the effortlessly catchy tunes of its favourite French electro pioneers. Sing it with me now: "We're up all night to get lucky, we're up all night to get lucky, we're up all night to get lucky!"
Ciao bello/bella! This week the Weekender has been in Milan feasting on cured meats, cheeses, pizzas and pasta. It saw some design too. Not once did it manage to get its hands on a gelato though, which was enormously frustrating as frozen cream is The Weekender's favourite thing, except for maybe endless diatribes about the nature of its own existence and the incessant pursuit of loosely design-related junk with which to fatten the minds of its followers. Anyway, apart from all the food there was a lot of heavy boozing, some chairs, canapés (pronounced kahnaypes), a tent, loads more chairs and an outdoor swimming pool in a villa. So yeah, that about sums it up. But what was going on outside of Italy's design capital? Let's take a look shall we…..
People of Friday afternoon, chill your boots. Yeah we know The Weekender was nowhere to be seen last week and we can only imagine you were devastated, stranded in the post-lunch daze with nothing to do; no refreshing nuggets of web-guff to entertain you in your hour of need. But The Weekender celebrates Easter just like anyone else and we'll be damned if we'll deny it the opportunity to ram its face full of chocolate eggs, go bowling in Woking (don't ask) and roast an entire flock of lambs to satisfy its meaty lust. So yes, perhaps we did desert you for a whole Friday, but don't expect an apology. The Weekender makes no apologies.
Since copy and pasting the lyrics to The Spice Girls' Mama a few weeks back, I kind of can't resist doing it again. Instead of writing some quirky intro using my BRAIN i'm just going to copy and paste a quirky intro using my INTERNET. Without further ado, here's a snippet of the lyrics to The Sugababes' 2005 hit, Push The Button (they are back together, after all)
If The Weekender had a hammer, he'd hammer in the morning, he'd hammer in the evening, he'd hammer out danger, he'd hammer out a warning, between his brothers and his sisters all over this land. But The Weekender has made some questionable financial investments at the recommendation of some shady mobsters and now he doesn't have a hammer at all. In fact The Weekender doesn't have anything anymore (thanks bailiffs!) except an internet connection and a knackered Dell laptop that he uses to scour the web for all sorts of hilarious jollity. Want to see what he's found this week? Yeah you do. Course you do. There's literally nothing else better to spend your time on right now…
It's Mothering Sunday this weekend (yes, it's too late to send a card, you'll have to send a text again like last year) so the intro to this Weekender is Mother's day themed. What could possibly sum up the tender, relentless love of a mother and child relationship than the fascinating lyrics of The Spice Girls' 1996 club banger Mama:
Lately, I have become fascinated by provocative US pop sensation Ke$ha. After some careful study of her lyrics, I feel she may be a genius. You know how surprising it is to find out Shakespeare coined so many common phrases? Well I think Ke$ha has similarly lofty linguistic ambitions. Take her name for example – this isn't a typo SHE ACTUALLY SPELLS IT LIKE THIS. Maverick. She also uses phrases like "sick and sexified." In centuries to come we'll all be saying that the whole time and someone smug will say: "You know it was Ke$ha who coined that." You heard it hear first. Where was I? Oh right, The Weekender…
It's a tough old world we live in right? Every day it seems we're teetering on the brink of destruction from forces both internal and external. The government doesn't seem to give two hoots about our wellbeing, our mums won't return our calls, and how about that asteroid that almost destroyed Russia? All this crap is starting to make us feel a little bit paranoid. But that's not even the half of it, what about those guys on Youtube that dislike the World of Warcraft video tutorials we uploaded, and don't even get us started on the Twitter backlash we have to deal with when we're not quite as funny as we'd like to think. Still thank the lord we've got The Weekender to ease away the stresses and strains of modern living and let us know that everything's going to be alright…
I know what you're thinking, you're thinking "Where does The Weekender go from Monday morning through to Friday afternoon?" and you know what, you're right to wonder. It's quite the conundrum! But in the same way that you ponder as a child where babies come from, only to be reviled by the answer when your poor hounded father finally reveals the secrets of procreation, discovering the day-to-day habits of the world's favourite weekly, whimsical culture roundup will only leave you feeling sad, hollow and ultimately disappointed. So call off that private investigator, put down your binoculars and stop following The Weekender around like a creep (don't think we won't issue a restraining order). That's better. Now let's get on with dishing out the good stuff….
The best baddie in cinematic history is not Darth Vader or Blofeld, oh no, it's Shooter McGavin from Happy Gilmore. Just as you're about ready to mentally kill the actor that plays Shooter purely because of his character, this bit of dialogue happens that suddenly makes you realise he's not worth your time. Happy and Shooter are arguing and Shooter goes "Just stay out of my way… or you'll pay! Listen to what I say!" only for Happy to reply "Hey, why don't I just go eat some hay, make things out of clay, lay by the bay? I just may! Whaddya say?" which is basically the best comeback line in history. Take the feeling of that triumphant moment, times it by eleven, and that's how good The Weekender is.
Hold on to your hats kids, we're coming to the end of a MASSIVE week and The Weekender's gearing up for a proper bender. There's a birthday going on at Weekender HQ and the party rings and punch are in full swing. But what's that, you wish there was some way you could be more involved? Well let me tell you something, you can! Come on in, there's no guest list on the door of this friendly shindig – but there is a massive bouncer ready to nut you one in the face if you misbehave. Don't misbehave.

Second thoughts on Caps' preseason win
Already comfortable, Caps preparing for season
Sudden thoughts and second thoughts as the Caps reflect on their 4-3 shootout victory over the Winnipeg Jets in their first of eight preseason games Saturday night at Yardmen Arena in Belleville, Ontario:
Ovi OK: It looked far worse than it was, but Alex Ovechkin got clipped in the face by a careless high stick by Ben Chiarot early in the first period. When the Capitals' captain pulled himself off the ice he had a bloodied lip and Chiarot had himself four minutes in the penalty box.
Ovechkin required stitches [see his post-game Twitter photo here] but returned to the game and took a regular shift the remainder of the game.
Olympic speed: Yardmen Arena is an Olympic-sized sheet of ice and the pace of the game was a reflection the wider ice surface. Capitals coach Adam Oates told reporters that goaltending coach Olie Kolzig returned to the coaches' room after the first period and "couldn't believe" the pace of the first 20 minutes.
"The speed of the first period was incredible," Oates said. "I was very shocked."
Return of the wraparound: Saturday marked the Caps' first look at the shallow nets being introduced by the NHL this season. The new nets are 4 inches more shallow than the ones used last season.
While four inches may be hard to discern from the stands or on TV, it means a lot to players like Nicklas Backstrom, who likes to operate from behind the net, and Marcus Johansson, who like to attempt wraparounds.
The Jets' Scott Kosmachuk used the extra space to beat Caps goalie Braden Holtby on a wraparound in the second period.
Backstrom said the extra space behind the net will "absolutely" increase scoring chances.
"If you have more space like that, that's almost like a second extra you have," he said. "It will be an advantage to us."
Holtby called the change "very subtle" and wondered if the extra space might give goaltenders even more room to handle the puck behind the net.
The new nets have not yet arrived at Kettler Capitals Iceplex but Oates said he's anxious to see how the shallower nets alters the angles of shooters.
"I'm more curious to see the bounces off the boards on dump-ins," Oates said. "Does it hit the back of the net and stop? Does it ricochet out on an angle?"
Goalie shuffle: Holtby allowed two goals in his preseason debut and Philipp Grubauer allowed one.
The Caps will hit the ice for three practice sessions again at Kettler today before embarking to Philadelphia Monday for a preseason game against the Flyers. Goaltender Michal Neuvirth is expected to get the start, with David Leggio expected to replace him midway through the game.

The Good
Avengers Arena's Boss Level has almost come and gone and Dennis Hopeless' tale of teen hero desperation isn't letting up. Arcade seems cornered, but he's already demonstrated a keen ability for evasion and contingencies, and while a few survivors try to find a way to save everyone, there might not be much of an everyone to save. Hopeless has given us a situation in which the darkest aspects of some of the most troubled characters in the Marvel U can seep through, and while he's been criticized for not writing the characters faithfully, actually going back and looking at the histories of the Runaways and the Avengers Academy kids (to say nothing of the characters he created whole cloth), they've always had a lot of edge and they've often been teetering on the precipice, especially where other young heroes are concerned. Arcade didn't so much nudge them off as he drove a semi-truck at them, forcing them to jump and that's why I don't think anything that goes on in this book is out of character.
Kev Walker hops onto pencils and joins Jason Gorder on inks with Jean-Francois Beaulieu supplying the alternately sterile, muted darkness of the underground base and the bright, messy palette of the island. This is a book full of grimacing faces, but everyone grimaces a little differently and no one (but Arcade) has much reason to smile anyway. But Arcade's face is rendered in all of its smarmy, punchable glory and I can't wait to see how this winds up for him.
The Bad
There's very little not to like about this book if you're alright seeing characters you love in impossibly difficult, painful situations and not always handling them as well as they could. But that's all part of crafting psychologically realistic characters: they don't always make the right choices. If I had a real complaint, it would be about the pacing of the issue. There's a very intense battle raging on the surface, but it seems to be put on hold every time we focus on things underground.
The Verdict
Now that we know where this book is headed, I'm excited to see how we get there. I'm still not entirely sure who lives and who dies, and that's part of the fun. We seem to complain about how predictable and samey everything is and this book absolutely blows that notion out of the water by being unpredictable, but never untrue. The art matches the desperate, messed-up tone of the writing to a tee and there's even a little time for a quip or two to make sure it's not ALL doom and gloom ALL the time.

Author has written 1 story for Summon Night.
Busy student who procrastinates. A lot. (Probably why I never get around to writing a proper fic.) I'm still facepalming at 'Chaos in Wystern', but I'm just keeping it there for the laffs. I do not plan to continue it.
Favourite series' would include: Naruto, One Piece, D.Gray-man, Magi (Labyrinth of Magic), Harry Potter and Fullmetal Alchemist.
Planning to get started on writing asap, but who knows?

The Washington Capitals were on ice for an intense practice bag skate Wednesday following their pathetic showing against the Dallas Stars Tuesday night. Some notes from Arlington:
The team participated in about 90 minutes worth of suicides, one-on-one battle drills, group conditioning, and overall Miracle-ish drills that left the entire team, shall we say, gassed. Think Bruce Boudreau was trying to send a message?
All 22 Caps on the active roster were on the ice, including Mike Green, as the defenseman continues to work his way back from an ankle injury.

Ryanair's gross cash position reached €3.93 billion ($5.04 billion) at the end of the second quarter to 30 September, an €800 million increase from last year's corresponding period.
"The financial strength of the business is evidenced by our recent aircraft bond issue, which carried an interest cost of just under 1.7%. Ryanair has availed of historically low interest rates to secure almost 70% of our fleet financing at an all-in rate of just over 3%," says the carrier in a statement.
Gross debt since the year-earlier period increased by €190 million to €3.68 billion.
Ryanair recorded €1.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period, down from €1 billion at 30 September, 2011.
The Irish budget carrier generated €607 million in net cash from operating activities during the six months to 30 September, which funded net capital expenditure of €179.1 million, debt repayments, and a €67.5 million share buy-back programme.
Ryanair used €2.1 billion of cash for investing in the first six-months, up from €1.2 billion in the year-earlier period. First half capital expenditures totalled €179 million, says the carrier.
