Will Renan Barao Get His Due?
Interim Championship belts. Ugh. I cannot stand those words. I understand that it is a necessary evil, especially in a sport where injuries are commonplace like mixed martial arts, but come on! We know this man wearing a belt is not the champion. The UFC sure cannot promote him like the champion because they do not want to forget about their real champion, and fighters know that it is only a guaranteed fight at the real champion when he, or she, returns healthy. I just find it awkward.
Renan Barao finds himself in this exact situation, although it is a bit more complicated. If you do not already know, I do believe that the UFC should force Dominick Cruz to give up his title. It's just my opinion, but since I'm the one writing, you will like that opinion. And like it good!
Anywho, Barao has proven himself time and time again when it comes to the Interim Belt. He won it from the ultra-popular, and talented, Urijah Faber. He defended the belt against the new up-and-comer Michael McDonald, and he now defends again against Eddie Wineland. All three of those fighters are the toughest that the division has to offer. If he does manage to defeat Wineland, will people finally give him his due and see him as the real champion? They better.
Cruz is an amazing fighter, everyone knows that, but a bum knee is not good news for any athlete. Yes, Georges St. Pierre did come back from it, but it was not as serious as Cruz', and his knee was never injured before. Cruz' knee has been battered more than once. If Cruz comes back, how long will he be healthy before injury strikes again? If Barao wins this Saturday, I say he becomes undisputed. Let's put a new face to the Bantamweight division and witness a dynasty in the making.

Glee creator Ryan Murphy becomes a father for the first time

Congratulations to Ryan and Davidglee is a great show with positive role models for Gay kids. It has proved that shows with. Gay bias can be hugely popular and profitable. The Modern Family guys are cliche but funny and likeable.
Obvously nothing happening in the LGBT world in the UK today.
How very fashionable.
The baby with four names starts out his life in a christmas stocking.
His fathers both had "difficult tumultuous upbringings". So they thought it would be a good idea to put a newborn human being inside a christmas stocking. It does not bode well.

Garden Grocer was so convenient for our trip to Disney World. The food was waiting for me when I arrived and the ordering process was easy. Will definitely use next time we go to Florida.
I had never heard of Garden Grocer before, but as I was reading the Unofficial Guide to Disney World it had mentioned of this website. I am so glad that I came across that. Searching items was very easy and to add everything to a cart. It made our trip so much easier knowing that I could plan ahead our grocery items for our room and have them delivered directly there. I didn't have to take time away from our trip (or drag the kids along either) to go grocery shopping. This is my vacation and that is the last thing I want to do. Items were delivered even before we arrived and carefully packaged. This is a must do in planning for Disney World. I will surely be using Garden Grocer again.
I am so glad I discovered this place. Food prices can be so high at hotels and resorts; being able to purchase your own items is fabulous and cost-saving. I will certainly recommend your services to others.

Meir Panim Gives the Gift of Camp to Hundreds of Impoverished Children.
There was a moment when Jews might have sought to convert others. (To be sure, there was one instance when they did. The Hasmonean priest-king John Hyrcanus I forcibly converted the Edomites, known as the Idumeneans. Herod was one of their numbers.) The period in question was the Roman Empire in the first century. Jews numbered some 10 percent of the empire, and there were many Romans who admired aspects of their faith and way of life. The pagan deities of the Hellenistic world were losing their appeal and plausibility, and throughout the centers of the Mediterranean, individuals were adopting Jewish practices. Two aspects of Judaism stood in their way: the commandments and circumcision. In the end, Jews chose not to compromise their way of life for the sake of making converts. The Hellenistic people who sympathized with Judaism mostly adopted Pauline Christianity instead. Consistently throughout history, Jews have chosen to be true to themselves and to stay small rather than make concessions for the sake of increasing their numbers.
Why have Divine providence or human choice, or both, eventuated in the sheer smallness of the Jewish people? Could it be, quite simply, that through the Jewish people God is telling humankind that you do not need to be numerous to be great? Nations are not judged by their size but by their contribution to the human heritage. Of this the most compelling proof is that a nation as small as the Jews could produce an ever-renewed flow of prophets, priests, poets, philosophers, sages, saints, halachists, aggadists, codifiers, commentators, rebbes and roshei yeshivot; that they could also yield some of the world's greatest writers, artists, musicians, filmmakers, academics, intellectuals, doctors, lawyers, businesspeople and technological innovators. Out of all proportion to their numbers Jews could and can be found working as lawyers fighting injustice, economists fighting poverty, doctors fighting disease, and teachers fighting ignorance.
You do not need numbers to enlarge the spiritual and moral horizons of humankind. You need other things altogether: a sense of the worth and dignity of the individual, of the power of human possibility to transform the world, of the importance of giving everyone the best education they can have, of making each of us feel part of a collective responsibility to ameliorate the human condition, and a willingness to take high ideals and enact them in the real world, unswayed by disappointments and defeats.
Nowhere is this more in evidence today than among the people of Israel in the State of Israel: traduced in the media and pilloried by much of the world, yet still, year after year, producing human miracles in medicine, agriculture, technology, the arts – as if the word "impossible" did not exist in the Hebrew language. When, therefore, we feel fearful and depressed about Israel's plight, it is worth returning to Moses's words: "The Lord did not set His affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you are the fewest of all peoples."
Small? Yes. Still surrounded, as the Israelites were then, by "nations larger and stronger than you." But that small people, defying the laws of history, outlived all the world's great empires, and still has a message of hope for humanity. You don't have to be large to be great. If you are open to a power greater than yourself, you will become greater than yourself. Israel today still carries that message to the world.

(JNi.media) Tisha B'Av (Heb: 9th of the month of Av) is a fast day according to rabbinic law and tradition, commemorating the destruction of the First Temple in 586 BCE by the army of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and the destruction of the Second Temple in the year 70 CE by the Roman army led […]
Devarim often parallels the stories in Bereishit but in reverse & can be considered as a corrective
'Older' By A Month
'…Until The Beginning Of Adar'
(Nedarim 63a)
We realize how much we miss something only after it's gone.
Because the words of Torah gladden the heart, studying Torah is forbidden when Tisha B'Av is on a weekday, except for passages in Scripture that deal with the destruction of the Temple and other calamities.
On Super Bowl Sunday itself, life seems to stop. Over one hundred million people watch the game. About half of the households in the country show it in their living rooms and dens.
Moses begins Sefer Devarim reviewing much of the 40 years in the desert & why he can't enter Israel
While they are definitely special occurrences, why are they cause for a new holiday?
Torah wasn't given to be kept in Sinai; Brooklyn or Beverly Hills-It was meant to be kept in Israel!
"When a king dies his power ends; when a prophet dies his influence begins" & their words echo today
In addition to the restrictions of Tisha B'Av, there are several restrictions that one may not perform during the week that Tisha B'Av falls in.
The word "shavat" in the first kina of Tisha B'Av morning indicates a sudden suspension and cessation of time that accompanied the Temple's destruction.
The two decided to approach Rabbi Dayan. "What is the halachic status of conquered territory?" asked Shalom.
"When a king dies his power ends; when a prophet dies his influence begins" & their words echo today
Sharing influence is like lighting a candle with another: it doesn't mean having less; you have more
All agree that Jews ARE different. How? Why? The Bible's answer is surprising and profound.
Of Chukkim "Satan and the nations of the world made fun." They may appear irrational & superstitious
Heaven answered Moshe dramatically. He was proved right. End of revolt. End of story- Not at all…
There's no obligation TO wear tzitzit; opting to wear them symbolizes free acceptance of the mitzvot
Sadly, we're no longer an edah; We've fissured and fractured: Orthodox & Reform; religious & secular
The desert, with its unearthly silence & emptiness, is the condition in which the Word can be heard

New PPT Video: "When We Was Kool"
Pikahsso, Picnic and Tahiti of PPT just posted their latest music video onto YouTube, and the Hal Samples-shot video version of the track "When We Was Kool" is flat-out phenomenal. Check it out:
(It helps that it's a killer song, too.)
The timing of this video's release is a bit weird, considering that the track is off PPT's 2006 debut release, Tres Mondos In Love and that the band's about to drop it's next disc, Denglish, on April 15. But hey, we're not complaining--we like this track and video too much. Nice job, fellas.
(Interesting note: According to Erv Karwelis of Idol Records, the final touches to video were still being applied last night. Hours later, it's up on YouTube with over 100 views already--without any promotion. Talk about a quick turnaround.
Oh, and if you're interested in seeing the behind-the-scenes clip about shooting this video, we've got that, too, after the jump.) -- Pete Freedman

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
05 Nov 2013 16:14 GMT | Humanitarian crises, Europe, Norway
Norwegian police say that a knife-wielding man who allegedly stabbed three people to death during a bus hijacking in rural Norway was a failed asylum seeker who was about to be deported.
The 30-year-old man from South Sudan, who is being treated for knife wounds in hospital, was due to fly to the capital, Oslo, on Tuesday before leaving the country, police officer Aage Loeseth told AFP news agency.
The man, whose name has not been disclosed, is suspected of hijacking a bus and stabbing to death a , 19-year-old woman and two men in their 50s, one of whom was the bus driver.
Police spokeswoman, Eli Anne Tvergrov, said the suspect had been living at a reception centre for asylum seekers in nearby Aardal, a small town in western Norway near the scene of the attack.
He was due to be sent to Spain to have his application for asylum reviewed there, Tvergrov said
Completely unexpected
The deputy director of the organisation managing the reception centre, Tor Brekke, told AFP that the attack had been "completely unexpected".
"There was nothing to indicate any imbalance, or that he could do this," he said.
The suspect arrived in Norway in April and had been living in the Aardal centre since August 26.
The attacker was overpowered by firefighters who were attending what they initially believed was a traffic accident, police said.
The long-distance bus was on the route between the mountainous Valdres region, a popular area for skiing, and the Norwegian capital.

Burlington baseball coach Jim Curtin retires after 52 years on the job | High School Insider | with Danny Ventura & Jim Clark
High School Insider with Danny Ventura & Jim Clark
Burlington baseball coach Jim Curtin retires after 52 years on the job
Burlington baseball coach Jim Curtin has officially announced his retirement. Curtin spent 52 years at the school and is just one of a handful of coaches with more than 600 wins (612) to his credit.
Below is a statement from Curtin:
It has been a true honor and privilege to have coached so many remarkable student-athletes. Throughout my career I have done my best to be a successful baseball coach, but more importantly serve as a role model for the young men entrusted to me. I have been truly blessed to perform a job I love in a community as great as Burlington. Over the course of six decades, I have made coaching baseball a key priority in my life. During that time, I never lost my enthusiasm for working with young people and my love of the game has never wavered. The decision to retire at this time was ultimately about my family and staying healthy for my 17 grandchildren.

"Bask in Swain's Las Vegas without having to set foot in the place and risk being skinned alive."
–The Washington Post Book World
A blind poker player named Skip DeMarco is scamming the world's largest poker tournament in Las Vegas, and cheating-expert Tony Valentine and his son, Gerry, have been hired to find out how. DeMarco is tied to some dangerously desperate characters who will go to extremes–even cold-blooded murder–to ensure that the obnoxious DeMarco wins big.
While Gerry flies to Atlantic City to suss out DeMarco's secret, Valentine stays in Vegas and teams up with an aging grifter named Rufus Steele, who has his own score to settle with DeMarco. On opposite sides of a deadly game, father and son work their way through a colorful landscape of conmen and hitmen. Together, they will have to prove there's more to any game of chance than meets the eye.
Featuring insider tips for catching poker cheats, as well as a glossary of card hustler terms!

Read an Excerpt
"I win," Rufus Steele said. Tony Valentine could not believe his eyes. Steele, a seventy-year-old, whiskey-drinking Texas gambler, had just outrun a racehorse named Greased Lightning in the hundred-yard dash. The race had taken place on the manicured football field of the University of Nevada, the pulsating neon of the Las Vegas strip electrifying the night sky.
Valentine stood in the end zone with a mob of gamblers, many of whom had bet against Rufus. The gamblers were competing in the World Poker Showdown, the world's richest poker tournament. Valentine was there for a different reason. He'd been hired by the Nevada Gaming Control Board to figure out how a seeing- impaired player could be cheating the tournament, and he was trying to help his son avenge the murder of a childhood friend. The fact that he'd solved neither case to his satisfaction had made for a long four days, and watching Rufus fleece some suckers had provided a welcome distraction.
"I want to see the tape," declared a man known as the Greek.
The Greek had lost a half million bucks on the horse. He fancied himself a gambler, but had never swam with sharks as big as Rufus. The old cowboy sauntered over to where the Greek stood.
"Want to bet on the outcome again?" Rufus asked.
"Shut up!" the Greek roared.
Zack, the cameraman who'd filmed the event, rewound the tape, and the Greek and Rufus huddled behind him, staring at the camera's tiny screen. Valentine wanted to see the race again as well, and stared over the two men's shoulders.
Gloria Curtis brushed up beside him. In Vegas covering the poker tournament for a cable sports network, Gloria had filmed the race to be shown on her talk show. "Did you know Rufus was going to swindle the Greek like that?" she whispered to Valentine.
"Rufus didn't swindle him," he whispered back.
"He didn't?"
"No. Rufus tricked him."
"And how is that different?"
"Rufus told the Greek he could beat a horse in the hundred-yard dash. He never said the race would be run in a straight line."
She chewed her lower lip, thinking it over. "But Rufus put a plastic cone on the fifty-yard line, so the horse had to stop, turn around, and run back."
"It was a hundred-yard race, fair and square," Valentine said.
She smiled at him with her eyes, which were the prettiest Valentine had seen in a long time. She'd interviewed him about the cheating at the tournament, and they'd immediately hit it off. He had no idea where the relationship was going, or even if it was going anywhere, but the ride so far was enjoyable.
"I know it looks like Rufus swindled the Greek," he explained, "but the Greek went into the race with a gigantic edge, and he knew it."
"An edge?"
"An advantage. The Greek's advantage was that no human being can outrun a horse. The Greek had to know that Rufus would level the playing field to make the race competitive. And that's exactly what Rufus did."
"You still didn't answer my question. Did you know what Rufus was up to?"
"No." Valentine sensed Gloria didn't quite believe him. Normally it wouldn't have mattered, only she'd been in his thoughts these last few days. So he added, "Scout's honor."
She kissed him on the cheek. "Good."
"Here we go," said Zack.
The tiny screen on Zack's camera showed Rufus and Greased Lightning about to start their race. The horse's jockey stood in his saddle, clutching his crop. Valentine had been the starter, and the audio on the camera played back his voice intoning, "Take your marks . . . Get ready—go!" and the shot of the starter pistol.
Greased Lightning bolted, the jockey gripping the reins for dear life. The horse was out of control, and by the time the jockey managed to stop and turn around, he was ninety yards down the field. By then, Rufus had reached the cone, spun around, and was heading for the finish line.
"For the love of Christ," Valentine now said under his breath.
"What's wrong?" Gloria asked.
"Rufus tricked me."
"But I didn't think anyone could trick you," Gloria said.
Valentine shook his head, realizing what Rufus had done. The sound of the starter pistol had put Greased Lightning into a frenzy, and prevented the jockey from trotting to the cone, turning around, and galloping back.
"It happens," he said.
On the tiny screen, Rufus was huffing and puffing, his arms and legs working in unison, the horse coming up from behind like a runaway train. The ending was decided by inches, with Rufus throwing himself over the finish line as Greased Lightning thundered past. Zack froze the frame, and everyone leaned forward to see Rufus's hand break the plane of the end zone before the horse's nose did.
Rufus pounded the Greek on the back.
"I win," Rufus said.
Professional gamblers did not take IOUs or personal checks. They dealt in cold hard cash, and the Greek had brought an enormous bag of money with him to the football field. As the Greek paid Rufus off, he looked at him pleadingly.
"I want another chance," the Greek said.
There was weakness in his voice. Rufus glanced up from his counting.
"Want to win your money back, huh?"
The Greek nodded.
"I didn't bust you, did I?"
The Greek shook his head. "I have more," he said.
Rufus pulled the drawstring tight on the bag and gave it some thought. Sweat had started pouring off his body right after the race had ended. Valentine had tried to get him to drink water, but he'd refused.
"Well, I used to be pretty good at Ping-Pong," Rufus said. "How about this. I'll challenge anyone still playing in the tournament to a game of Ping-Pong, winner to reach twenty-one."
"How much money are we talking about?" the Greek asked.
Rufus pointed at the sack of money lying on the grass. "That much. Interested?"
The Greek smiled like he'd found sunken treasure. "Yeah, I'm interested."
"I've got one stipulation," Rufus said. "I supply the paddles. Your man can choose either one. If he wants to switch during the match, he can. I just don't want some guy showing up with one of those crazy rubber paddles that put so much spin on the ball that it's impossible to hit back."
"I'm agreeable to that," the Greek said.
"Tell Rufus not to go through with this," Gloria whispered in Valentine's ear.
"Why not?"
"Takarama is still playing in the tournament. I profiled him for my show the other day. He still practices table tennis three hours a day."
Shiego Takarama was a world table tennis champion who'd retired to play tournament poker. He was still in tremendous shape, and Valentine envisioned him wiping up the floor with Rufus. He went over to Rufus and pulled him aside.
"You don't want to go through with this," Valentine said.
"Of course I do," Rufus replied.
"But you're going to lose."
"Tony, I can play Ping-Pong as good as the next fellow. I've got a table in my basement that I play my granddaughters on."
"But . . ."
"Did you hear what the Greek said? He has money. That's my money, Tony. The Greek is just holding it for me. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some business to take care of."
There was no stopping a man when he wanted to gamble. Rufus went up to the Greek and shook hands, sealing the deal. Shaking his head, Valentine returned to where Gloria stood with her cameraman. "He'll never beat Takarama," he said.
A twinkle appeared in Gloria's eye. "So, you want to make a bet on that?"
"You mean bet against Rufus?"
Betting against a grifter was like betting against the sun rising. No matter how outlandish the proposition, the grifter was going to come out ahead.
"Never," he said.

Not one, but two McCormick & Schmick's restaurants closed yesterday, AZ Central just reported. The two were voted off the McCormick's ship after the company changed hands this week to become part of the Landry's restaurant chain. The report states, "A Landry's spokeswoman said the company would attempt to find positions at other Phoenix-area Landry's restaurants for the employees who lost their jobs. Locally, Landry's operates Claim Jumper restaurants in Phoenix, Tempe and Avondale; the Chart House in Scottsdale; and the Rainforest Café at Arizona Mills in Tempe." No Arizona locations are showing on the company website as of today. You'll still be able to get your hands on those crab legs in over 80 restaurants nationwide though. Click here for the full story.

Predictions that holiday sales might not live up to e-retailers' expectations this year are being re-evaluated as online sales in some categories are already starting to climb, according to online census data aggregated by OneChannel.net, which tracks online hardware sales. For the period from Oct. 21 through Nov. 17, online hardware sales are down slightly overall (3%) at the retail level, but the PC audio category shot up 36% on sales of approximately $2.7 million. Specifically, MP3 players increased 55% to achieve about $1.5 million in sales, while PC speakers jumped about 21% to hit $860,000 for the four-week period. E-retail sales of headphones enjoyed an increase, too, rising 7% to achieve sales of about $110,000. In contrast to PC audio products, PDA sales online were down more than 29% during the same four-week period. Flash memory for PDAs and cameras was up about 11.5% on revenues of about $1.6 million, and PDA accessories were up 56%, achieving sales of $376,000. OneChannel.net uses actual transaction data as reported by its retail partners. Due to retailer differences in reporting and shipping time frames, there may be up to a 3% understatement of sales in this report. These anomalies are self-correcting over time as latencies in data are normalized.
