The red band trailer for Kick-Ass certainly lives up to its name by showcasing Chloe Moretz's foul-mouthed Hit Girl as she kicks every ass in sight. More specifically, she shoots a dude through his cheek, cuts off a Malcom Jamal Warner lookalike's leg, and drops the "C" bomb on a room full of thugs. Now I'm all kinds of homesick. Seeing such a young girl growl the "C" word really makes me miss my nieces.

Connecticut Avenue PRSA
In May of 2011, the Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) conducted a pedestrian road safety audit (PRSA) from Georgia Avenue to Independence Street. Regional partners from the District of Columbia Department of Transportation and the Maryland State Highway Administration (MSHA) also participated in the two-day audit of this ¾-mile stretch of major highway in the Aspen Hill Community.
The Connecticut Avenue (MD 185) study area was identified as one of Montgomery County's High Incidence Areas (HIA) for pedestrian-related collisions, as part of the Montgomery County Executive's Pedestrian Safety Initiative.
Since the audit was conducted, MCDOT and the Maryland State Highway Administration have focused on lighting, signals, pavement markings, sidewalks, and signage improvements.

Bill Medley
The Righteous Brothers were the musical duo of Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley. They recorded from 1963 through 1975 and continued to perform until Hatfield's death in 2003. Their emotive vocal stylings were sometimes dubbed "blue-eyed soul".[1]
Hatfield and Medley both possessed exceptional vocal talent, with range, control and tone that helped them create a strong and distinctive duet sound and also to perform as soloists. Medley sang the low parts with his deep, soulful baritone, with Hatfield taking the higher register vocals with his soaring countertenor.
They adopted their name in 1962 while performing together in the Los Angeles area as part of a five-member group called The Paramours,[2] which featured John Wimber (a founder of the Vineyard Movement) on keyboards and artist and sculptor Nick Turturro on saxophone. At the end of one performance, a U.S. Marine in the audience shouted, "That was righteous, brothers!",[3] prompting the pair to adopt the name as they embarked on their duo career.
Musical career[edit]
John Wimber (then Johnny Wimber) brought Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley together for the band The Paramours in 1962. The Righteous Brothers started their recording career on the small Moonglow label in 1963 with two albums and two moderate hits: "Little Latin Lupe Lu" and "My Babe".
Their first major hit single was "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'",[4] their first release on the Philles label in 1965. Produced by Phil Spector, the record is often cited as one of the peak expressions of Spector's Wall of Sound production techniques. It was one of the most successful pop singles of its time, despite exceeding the then standard length for radio play. Indeed, according to BMI, "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" was the most played song on American radio and television in the 20th century, estimated to have been broadcast more than eight million times.[5] Spector used Cher (of Sonny & Cher fame) as a backing singer on this and other recordings.[citation needed]
The Righteous Brothers had several other Spector-produced hit singles in 1965, including "Just Once in My Life", "Unchained Melody" (originally the B-side of "Hung on You"[6]), and "Ebb Tide", all of them reaching the Billboard Top 10. Medley has consistently said that he produced "Unchained Melody", intended only as an album track, but later copies of the original 45 release credited Spector as producer.
However, the singers did not get along well with Spector personally and their contract was sold to Verve/MGM Records in 1965. Their next release in 1966, "(You're My) Soul and Inspiration" was a Phil Spector sound-alike song, produced by Bill Medley, who was able to fully simulate the Spector style of production. It was written by Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann who had co-written "Lovin' Feelin'" with Spector. Medley used arranger/conductor Bill Baker to provide a similar sound to Jack Nitzsche's arrangement of "Feelin'". It quickly became their second #1 U.S. hit, staying on the top for three weeks, but the song failed to reach the Top 10 in the UK.[7] In 1966, before they went their separate ways, and to capitalize on their previous hits, Verve/MGM issued a "Greatest Hits" compilation which has been modified twice: in 1983 with 10 tracks and in 1990 with two more tracks.
After a few more top 40 hits, including "He" and "Go Ahead And Cry", their popularity began to decline. Even a collaboration with former Motown A&R chief William "Mickey" Stevenson failed to work. They eventually split up in 1968, which lasted more than six years. Medley recorded a few solo recordings on several labels, while Bobby Hatfield teamed up with singer Jimmy Walker (from The Knickerbockers) using the Righteous Brothers name up until 1971. Neither he nor Medley was able to achieve any significant level of success. In 1974, Medley and Hatfield reunited to perform on The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour.
Later career and going solo[edit]
In 1974, they signed with Haven Records, run by producers Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter, and distributed by Capitol Records. They scored another hit with Alan O'Day's "Rock and Roll Heaven", a paean to several deceased rock singers: Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Otis Redding, Jim Croce and Bobby Darin are among the mentioned (Croce and Darin died within three months of each other in late 1973, shortly before the song was released). It peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, but failed to chart in the UK. It was updated in early 1991 to mourn the passing of Elvis Presley, Marvin Gaye, Jackie Wilson, Dennis Wilson, John Lennon, Roy Orbison, Sam Cooke, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Cass Elliot, who died a few months after the original version of the song was released. Several more minor hits on Haven followed, and then the Righteous Brothers found themselves hitless again until 1990, although they toured frequently. After the death of Medley's wife, the duo ceased touring between 1976 and 1981.
Earlier that same year, Medley once again began to record as a solo artist and had some success. In 1984, he scored country hits with "Till Your Memory's Gone" and "I Still Do" (which crossed over to the adult contemporary charts and later became a "cult" hit with the Carolina Beach/Shag dance club circuit); and in late 1987, his duet with Jennifer Warnes, "(I've Had) The Time of My Life", which appeared on the soundtrack for Dirty Dancing, topped the Billboard Hot 100. It won both an Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song for a Motion Picture (for the three songwriters, which did not include Medley), as well as a Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.
He also scored a moderate UK hit in 1988 with a version of "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother."[8] One of Medley's minor entries, "Don't Know Much," was a long running #2 Hot 100 and #1 Adult Contemporary, Grammy-winning smash duet by Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville in 1989-90. "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" is now seen and heard ubiquitously on TV and radio commercials — covered by singers other than Medley and Warnes — usually connected with vacation, cruise, resort, and other such holiday-themed advertisers.
In 1990, the original recording of "Unchained Melody" was featured in the popular feature film Ghost (starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Best Supporting Actress Oscar-winner Whoopi Goldberg). It caused an avalanche of requests to Top 40 radio by fans who had seen the movie to revive the 1965 Righteous Brothers' chestnut. This motivated Polygram (who now owned the Verve/MGM label archives) to re-release the song to Top 40 radio where it became a major hit for a second time (their second UK #1) and a greatest hits CD collection called The Very Best of The Righteous Brothers...Unchained Melody.[9] was reissued. Bobby Hatfield was the only vocal on Unchained Melody, as well as Ebb Tide.
The duo quickly re-recorded a cover version for Curb Records which also made the charts, and the new version appears on the budget priced CD The Best of The Righteous Brothers.[10] The reissue of the original 1965 version of "Unchained Melody" hit #13 on the Hot 100 in 1990 in connection with the film, and the re-recording of the song by The Righteous Brothers hit #19 on the Hot 100 and was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
The Righteous Brothers were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 10, 2003. In 2008, The Righteous Brothers 21st Anniversary television special, filmed at the Roxy on the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles in 1983, aired on numerous Public Television stations throughout the United States. Bill Medley continues to perform including in Branson, Missouri[11] and in 2013, finally made his first-ever stage appearance in London.
Hatfield death[edit]
Bobby Hatfield was found dead in his hotel room in Kalamazoo, Michigan, on November 5, 2003, shortly before he was due to perform at a concert with Bill Medley at Western Michigan University's Miller Auditorium. According to the autopsy report, the cause of his death was attributed to cocaine leading to heart failure.[12]

Right on fellas! I agree with you all 100% GEAUX TIGERS!!!!
This would be a pretty good hire!
Did you see the gmae last night? Emeka played well on both ends and scored several baskets.... Over Nene by the way! If you wanna compare everything to last season then stop watching this year! With a new regime things change. I loved TC, but lets be honest... he was a super athletic, oft injured, under achiever who was made relevant by playing with the best PG in the game. He's done nothing since and is now the highest paid "BACK UP" Center in the league. Let's get a few games in before we start bashing our players, because we don't know what they'll look like under the guidance of a new coaching staff and teammates! His career numbers dwarfs TC's!
How exactly did Jarrett Lee drive the ball so easily when only threw one pass???? QB is not the problem, the O-Line is. Watch Bama play and you'll remember what LSU's O-Line use to look like! Bad play calling and no true identity is the problem as well. Blame Jefferson all you want, he wins games! Jarrett Lee had his shot and he threw touchdown passes to every team in the SEC. Jefferson struggled last week yes, but he also has had seven balls dropped on him already this season. Blame the QB all you want, but it's not all his fault. There's no pass protection, neither is there any running game. Compare Jefferson's stats, and winning pct. to the other LSU QB's that you praised over the years and you'll be shocked. And they all had power running games to lean on!
Jefferson isn't the problem, it's the offensive line that's pathetic! Last year you had a very young QB always dodging DE's and LB's 3 steps into a 5 step drop. He had absolutely no running game to rely on, and let's not act like our talented, but yet unproven WR's caught every ball that touched their hands! Every QB LSU has had from the Dinardo era on, had one thing Jefferson hasn't had.... A POWERFUL OFFENSIVE LINE and a POWER RUNNING GAME!!!! I guess you think Charles Scott just lost all his mojo from the year before right? Stop blaming the QB for everything and look at the big picture. Does he make mistakes? Yes. but he has shown signs of improvement, he's won 11 of 16 games, and contrary to what alot of people say he doesn't turn the ball over much (unlike Lee). I actually think Jefferson and Lee are very talented and can both compete at a high level, but it all starts with the boys upfront! I would get into the lousy play calling as well, but that's another story! People are so quick to forget that all the LSU QB's struggled early on in their careers, and none of them were forced into action as early as Jefferson or Lee. Mauck was 24 yrs old, Jamarcus got to red shirt and was very inconsistent until his Jr season, Flynn got to sit and learn for 4 years, and even Perriloux red shirted and couldn't get on the field until what would've been his red shirt Jr. year (And all of these guys had running games to lean on). So calm down and refresh your memories for a second. If the running game we saw in the 2nd half last week carries over, we'll see much improved play from the QB position. Rather it's Jefferson or Lee!
Bring back Rasual Butler!!!!! lol
Uhhhh..... LUTHER HEAD????? compete with Marcus Thornton????? Your kidding right? We're definitely on the Lakers heels now folks..... lol Seriously though... he's a capable back up at best, we need MORE!!!!!
what about Perry Clark??? LOL!!!!
C'mon dude... cut the guy a little slack!!!! LOL
Valid points, but the term "dismal failure" just sounds so bad... LOL!!! Give him one more shot, his next gig will tell it all...

I concur.... TWO DAT!!!!!
I agree with you on a lot of what you said, but "The guy is a dismal failure as a head coach"???? With a 194-70 record???? True this was with Don Nelson's players, but Donnie never took them to the NBA finals either(even w/Steve Nash). Besides, that's the nature of the sport. Phil Jackson won 10 rings with players that were handed over to him. I agree Avery "might" be a little overrated (which still remains to be seen), and he's definitely the favorite due more so to his local ties. However, a dismal failure as a head coach.... He's not!
I agree with all of you guys. Bower is just as much to blame as Scott was, maybe even more. He's the one that actually signed the 3 P's (Peja, Posey, and Peterson), and was a huge part of the draft process. I say clean house!!!!!!
mlb 20
(Newsflash, Leslie: An egg is what you laid against Ole Miss. And Penn State.) This was the funniest thing I've heard all day.... but so true!
Last night might have been the most impressive game I've seen CP play. He had that "Nobody can guard me" look in his eyes. You could also see that he got stronger, and that he worked overtime on his jump shot. The up tempo pace suits him alot better than the so called "Princeton" offense of old.
Will somebody remind this dumba$$, that we play his beloved Cowboys next month, and that we whip them everytime we play. Can someone also remind him of the Cowboys schedule thus far, which have included a OT win over KANSAS CITY.... What a joke. Your team sucks!
If you look at the other top teams in the league, one of the first things you notice is how much better ball movement they have. CP3 was right, he needs the ball out of hands more. Scott's idea of offense was typically, get CP the ball and let him create. This along with the fact that he hasn't drafted well, nor has he developed younger players led to his undoing. Look for Avery Johnson's name to be thrown around alot over the next several months!
Your right. We would stll have had to drive down and score, but we would have gained possession at the 31 yd line. Even with our offensive struggles, I like our chances in that situation.
This was one of the worst calls I've ever seen!!!!! First it's the no call against Team Tebow, now this. Guess they'll get the Alabama vs. Florida rematch they've been talking up all season. Makes me SICK!!!!
Byron Scott can say what he wants. This team needs Marcus Thornton. It's not like any of the other guards are stellar defenders. Great coaches are able to devise game plans that hide a players' defensive weaknesses. We need scoring, especially at the 2 spot.

Before SLIFF's 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award honoree established his Hollywood career, Joe Dante traipsed around the country with producer Jon Davison, toting the endless number of reels that made up "The Movie Orgy," an epic seven-hour compilation film that the pair screened at colleges and rep houses in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Scavenging the detritus of pop culture, "The Movie Orgy" smartly juxtaposed trailers, B-movie excerpts, old commercials, sex-hygiene films, newscasts, and music clips to create a sly narrative full of wit, humor, and unexpected new meanings. Largely unseen since its original tour, "The Movie Orgy" entered the realm of film legend. Recently, however, Dante transferred his decaying 16mm original to a digital format, and a slimmed-down version – now a mere 270 minutes – is making a welcome return to highly select venues. SLIFF is pleased to offer this Sunday matinee, allowing film fans to have a nooner with "The Movie Orgy."

Jennifer Ainsworth, Horry County Schools Teacher of the Year, was named the South Carolina Teacher of the Year on Wednesday night during a gala in Columbia. Ainsworth, who is from McColl, was one of the top five finalists. Ainsworth has spent her eight year career teaching Special Education at Socastee High School. She was inspired by her mom who was a substitute teacher as well as her volunteer work with the Special Olympics.
When I volunteered for Special Olympics and working with adults with special needs, at that point I changed my major and I knew that special education was what I would want to do, Ainsworth told WBTW last week.
Thanks to her hard work and dedication the difference she has made in her students lives led to her being a finalist for the state teacher of the year.
With the students in our class from day one, they give you unconditional love and anybody that walks into our room will realize that theyre going to take so much more away from our classroom, Ainsworth added.
Her students said they were confident she will be the winner because of the love she shows them everyday and how special she is to the class.
This is an honor for all the teachers and staff that work with special kids everyday and it kind of showcases what we do and Im extremely proud that its brought special education to the forefront. Ainsworth said last week.
All the finalists went through personal interviews with a seven-member state selection committee.
She and other finalists were selected from 81 school districts, the South Carolina School for the Deaf and the Blind, the Department of Juvenile Justice, the Palmetto Unified School District, and the South Carolina Public Charter School District.
South Carolinas Teacher of the Year will receive a $25,000 cash award and a new BMW to use for one year.
During the 2014-15 school year, he or she will also participate in a one-year residency program at the Center for Educator Recruitment, Retention and Advancement (CERRA) and will serve as a statewide ambassador for the profession.
The other four finalists, known as Honor Roll teachers, will each receive $10,000.
There will also be school district teachers of the year, and each of these educators will receive $1,000.
In addition to Ainsworth, other state finalists were: John Jed Dearybury, Woodland Heights Elementary School, Spartanburg School District 6; Rhonda Hudak, Rawlinson Road Middle School, Rock Hill School District 3; Patrick Kelly, Blythewood High School, Richland School District 2; and Vivian Beth Tuten, Swansea High School, Lexington School District 4.

12 large
potatoes, peeled and halved
2 (10.5 ounce) cans
cream of chicken soup
2 cups
sour cream
2 cups
shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
These were rich and delicious. I only had one can of cream of chicken so I used a can of cream to replace since I had nothing else. I usually shy away from changing anything the first time I try a recipe, but I really wanted these and it was Christmas, I didnt want to run out! I was going to slice them at first but decided to follow the recipe and cube them, so good...this will be a staple for holiday dinners to come!
It was okay. The sour cream seemed to stay to itself. Too much sour cream for me.
19 Ratings
What I like about this recipe is that it is super fast and easy. I did add some dried minced onion and some garlic powder. I did not pre-cook the potatoes. Instead I covered them and cooked them about 55 minutes.
My family and I loved this. I followed the directions exactly but also stirred in leftover ham before putting it in the oven. Very good~thank you!
Simple and Delicious!! I didnt pre cook my potatos first I just sliced them and baked it for about an hour! I added a small onion and some garlic powder These turned out Fantastic! very creamy and oh sooooo yummy!!
I scaled down the recipe to feed just two. I had 1/2 of a can of cream of chicken and mushroom soup to use to I basically quartered the recipe. I also used plain greek yogurt instead of sour cream. I added a healthy bit of dried minced onion. The end result was very good and I would make this again. I made the mistake of starting the boiling of the potatoes too late for dinner so they didn't get quite done and I had to cut them up while still hot but that was my fault. I also did not put cheese on top of the potatoes, just dumped all of it in the mix. I think they would benefit from some bread crumbs, preferably Panko, on top but again that is personal preference. Thanks!
It was easy to put together and smelled delicious! I sliced my potatoes instead of curbing them. However, the taste was not remarkable. It was flat. Missing something, I'm not sure what but I'm definitely going to try them again and play with the ingredients. Super simple recipe!
So good and so easy. I made this to go with our Easter ham and it was a big hit. Everyone loved it. I did add some sauted onion and garlic.

Welsh rugby regions hope to avert fresh crisis
Posted: February 15, 2013|
THE Welsh regions are willing to do all they can to save the body that was set up to secure the future of the professional game in Wales.
The Professional Regional Game Board (PRGB) was flagged up as heralding a new dawn for top-level rugby in Wales when it was launched barely three months ago.
But after just one meeting the body that was supposed to stop the elite game failing in these parts is in grave danger of failing itself amid a dispute over its exact terms of reference.
The Evening Post understands the regions and the union have been at odds over the old issues of control and cash, plus wider matters over the health of the game in Wales, and the body has yet to be formally signed up for.
The regions have become frustrated by the lack of progress and are thought to be deeply concerned about the PRGB's future, but are still anxious to make it work.
However, there are no guarantees that it will survive.
The new body was set up in December, comprising four members of the Welsh Rugby Union and one from each of the four regions, with an independent chair.
There were eight general objectives amid concern over how to keep leading players in Wales, how to deal with the increasing threat of football, how to stave off approaches to junior players in Wales from clubs in England and what to do about the Principality Premiership.
All those problems remain — but the body that was supposed to be tackling them has yet to properly get itself in gear.
If the PRGB does come to nothing the episode will be seen as a debacle and a deep embarrassment.
"The formation of the Professional Regional Game Board is a landmark moment in the history of Welsh rugby," said union group chief executive Roger Lewis when it was launched.
"By working together, we will create a unity of purpose for Welsh professional rugby which will be underpinned by collective management, enhanced with greater central resources and structured to ensure effective decision making.
"The PRGB will play a significant role in helping regional rugby make real progress, both on and off the field, in the years ahead."
In a fresh statement the WRU said: "The establishment of the Professional Regional Game Board was announced just nine weeks ago following discussions between the WRU and all four regional organisations. Mr Justice Wyn Williams has been chosen to chair the PRGB."

THE DREAMLIFE OF ANGELS Co-written and directed by Erick Zonca
When we first see Isa, the 21-year-old heroine of Erick Zonca's The Dreamlife of Angels, she's trudging under the weight of a huge backpack through the chill dawn of an almost featureless European city. With her close-cropped dark hair and street urchin's sniffle, she seems to be carrying the burden of the world on her shoulders.
Just moments after Zonca's arresting first scene, we start to see how stoic, and resourceful, this lost child has come to be. To raise spare change, Isa cuts photos from dog-eared magazines and hawks them as greeting cards. She sweet-talks strangers, takes warmth where she can find it, and keeps her eyes open. She's got the survival instincts of a stray cat and, even dwarfed by her backpack, the same feline grace.
This time she has landed, it turns out, in Lille, an industrial city in the north of France. You won't find it on the tourist maps, but it is exactly the right locale for Zonca's bleak meditations on loneliness, friendship and powerlessness. Lille sustained grave damage in both world wars, and the city the filmmaker and cinematographer Agnes Godard show us is gray and glum, a pile of anonymous postwar concrete that seems to have lost its soul. Isa, portrayed by a saucer-eyed wonder named Elodie Bouchez, is, despite her street smarts, in danger of suffering the same fate. Rootless and unfocused, she looks to be one lost job short of oblivion.
In Lille, Isa winds up in a mind-numbing dress factory, faced with a sewing machine she doesn't understand and an irritable supervisor. But there she makes a friend. Marie (Natacha Regnier) is as anxiety-ridden as Isa is tranquil, as hostile as Isa is practical. Marie, too, has lost her family and her way and finds herself on the ragged edge. But her brittleness contrasts sharply with Isa's almost fatalistic optimism. Marie has lucked into a bargain, though: She's house-sitting an apartment whose owners, a mother and daughter, have both been badly injured in an auto accident and are lying unconscious in a hospital. Ever the opportunist, Isa quickly becomes Marie's roommate.
Thus does Zonca, who at age 41 makes his feature-film debut with Angels, set the stage for a resolutely unsentimental study of two young women trying to deal with poverty and anomie. In the cold streets of Lille, Isa and Marie playfully accost businessmen; Isa tries to talk their way into a rock concert; eventually, they take up with a pair of nightclub bouncers (Jo Prestia and Patrick Mercado) who turn out to be pretty decent guys underneath their gruff exteriors. Isa and Marie audition, none too enthusiastically, for jobs as waitresses gotten up as celebrities. The irony is stinging: In real life, they are invisible, anonymous figures in a cold landscape.
Eventually, the paths of these two distressed souls must diverge. While embittered Marie grasps at the illusion that she will find happiness with a feckless rich boy (Gregoire Colin) who owns a local nightclub and has taken sexual advantage of her, Isa becomes ever more concerned with the girl whose place she took at the apartment -- the girl in the coma. First she finds the stricken Sandrine's diary, full of adolescent yearning and uncertainty, and is moved by its tender secrets. Isa even composes new entries of her own, as if to keep Sandrine's spirit alive. "You've been in the hospital one month," she writes in a looping schoolgirl's hand. "My name is Isabelle. I live in your flat."
That's not enough, of course. Isa begins visiting the unconscious Sandrine, and her sympathy for the bandaged stranger curled into a ball evolves into uneasy recognition.
"She could stay like that and grow old on her bed," Isa tells the oblivious Marie, her voice edged with wonder and terror. Zonca never puts too fine a point on it, but Isa's life (and Marie's) is also in danger of slipping into the long night.
Compared to most American movies about teen angst or postadolescent confusion -- Larry Clark's Kids, say, or that spate of isn't-young-love-difficult pictures -- The Dreamlife of Angels is curiously quiet and relentlessly contemplative. There are raucous party scenes but not a lot of empty chatter. Heart-wrenching emotion abounds. The two young actresses are so natural that you sometimes feel as though a TV camera has suddenly invaded real life, and Angels' third major character -- the city of Lille itself -- plays its role perfectly: It's a graveyard for dreams.
In French with English subtitles.
Opens May 14 at the Tivoli.

The Mirror is the third top-drawer Iranian film to open in the States this year, following The Children of Heaven and The Apple (the latter, regrettably, has yet to open in St. Louis). All three serve to confirm the vitality of Iranian cinema, despite the restrictions of censorship and tight budgets.
Like its predecessors, The Mirror centers around the world of children -- a theme whose popularity in Iranian films is in some ways a response to the censors and to the dress codes that hamper the filming of adult actresses. Director Jafar Panahi made a splash with his first film, The White Balloon (1995), which was the highest-grossing Iranian film ever in the international arena. It was a simple story, told in real time, of a little girl's desperate efforts to retrieve the money she has dropped through a grate in the sidewalk.

* Abbas will tell Obama 'no' on ending statehood bid
* UN membership bid could face delay in Security Council (Adds quotes, details)
By Louis Charbonneau
UNITED NATIONS, Sept 21 (Reuters) - The Palestinians -- despite firm U.S. and Israeli opposition -- will give the U.N. Security Council "some time" to study their application for full membership in the United Nations, a senior Palestinian official said on Wednesday.
He also said the Palestinian delegation would politely reject U.S. President Barack Obama's demand in his U.N. General Assembly speech on Wednesday that the Palestinians drop their bid for membership in the United Nations, a plan that is doomed to failure if Washington keeps its promise to veto it.
"We will give some time to the Security Council to consider first our full membership request before heading to the General Assembly," Nabil Shaath, a senior official in Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party, told reporters on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly.
Some U.N. diplomats and officials have said that the 15-nation Security Council might buy time by dragging out its review of the Palestinian U.N. membership application, which Abbas has vowed to submit on Friday to the U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon.
That review, they say, could theoretically take months, or even years.
"Any delay will be part of the procedure," Shaath said, adding that if there was an "undue delay," the Palestinians would turn to the General Assembly.
By turning to the General Assembly, Shaath was referring to a second U.N. option the Palestinians have been considering alongside full U.N. membership.
The second possibility is the so-called "Vatican option," under which the Palestinians would seek status as a non-member observer state in the United Nations, which would enable them to join the International Criminal Court and sign other international treaties and covenants.
The Palestinians are currently an observer "entity" at the United Nations.
It would not be difficult for the Palestinians to gain non-member state status, like the Vatican, as it would not need Security Council approval and would require only a simple majority approval in the 193-nation General Assembly. It would also be an indirect recognition of Palestinian statehood.
Full membership requires Security Council approval and a two-thirds majority in the General Assembly.
Shaath said Abbas would make all of this clear to Obama when the two meet in New York at 6 p.m. eastern time (2200 GMT).
"When we meet President Obama we will re-explain our issue, why we have to have United Nations membership," Shaath said.
"We will really cordially and respectfully tell him 'No'. We are insistent," he said. "This is morally, politically, and legally correct what we are trying to: joining the United Nations." (Reporting by Louis Charbonneau; Editing by Bill Trott)

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The East Tennessee State men's tennis team ended its tenure in the Atlantic Sun Conference in familiar fashion Sunday — with a tournament title. The top-seeded Bucs captured their eighth consecutive A-Sun championship with a 4-0 victory over host school North Florida.
ETSU's final A-Sun match — the Bucs will rejoin the Southern Conference next season — saw the league's top two squads go toe-to-toe in the tournament final for the third straight season. And for the third straight season, the Bucs (14-8) prevailed.
"It's going to be sad to leave a conference where we've seen such growth," ETSU head coach Yaser Zaatini said. "However, if we had to pick a way to leave, we could not have written the script any better."
The ETSU women also won the tournament with a 4-0 victory over Stetson in the final.
Freshman Ismael Merino was voted the tournament's MVP, while teammates David Biosca and Diego Nunez joined him on the all-tournament team.
During its nine seasons in the Atlantic Sun, ETSU captured eight tournament championships and seven regular season titles.
"We began A-Sun play with a regular season win in 2006, and to go out as tournament champions eight years later is quite impressive," Zaatini said. "To have several generations be a part of putting this run together—a dynasty that will forever live in the history books of the A-Sun—is unexplainable."
Sunday's victory extended the Bucs' season-best win streak to 11 matches. ETSU has not suffered a setback since Feb. 23—a span of 57 days—making it the longest win streak since the Bucs won 18 straight matches in 2008 (84 days) en route to advancing to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
ETSU has earned a spot in the NCAA tournament 11 times in the last 13 years. In 2008, the Bucs knocked off No. 26 Notre Dame, 4-2. Two years later, ETSU defeated No. 32 Alabama, 4-2.
The Bucs' lone senior, Roger Ordeig, won the match-clinching point, holding off Pablo Tellez at No. 6 singles, 6-0, 7-5,.
"To have Roger clinch the win and put his stamp on this tournament is glorious," Zaatini said.

[Reporter's note: This is the second in a series of profiles on profitable clean tech companies you're probably never heard of. The first featured Pro Aqua, an Austrian company that sells diamond-based electrodes for water purification.]
THiNKnrg CEO Zachary Rubin was helping to sell a new energy-efficient heating and cooling technology in South America, when he came to a realization: One energy-efficiency technology just wasn't enough.
The former director at Newmark Knight Frank, a commercial real estate firm in New York City, had been traveling around South America after making a large commission on a 300,000-square-foot lease in Brooklyn, New York, for Christie's auction house. There, he had met some Wharton researchers who had developed a heating, ventilation and air conditioning technology that he wanted to help bring to market. But as he spoke with building owners and facility managers, it became clear that it was difficult for them to evaluate the new technology without looking at all the different technologies that could work for their facilities.
A platform that would show customers a broader swath of possible technologies – and their potential impact – would make it easier for facilities to make better choices and also would help increase cleantech sales, he thought.
So Rubin began developing the platform, which he describes as very similar to the models that he'd used for evaluating real estate deals. The platform connects to software from third-party sources, like the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and also pulls in technology data sets and information about project-financing options to help evaluate various technologies' expected ROI (return on investment) for specific buildings, he says. It then spits out a simplified breakdown that non-energy-experts can understand.
The platform includes a variety of technologies, including energy-efficiency and water-efficiency products, solar-power, solar water heating and waste-to-energy technologies, and also includes competing products within those categories. "Many [installers] are still working with specific technologies; not a lot of them are technology agnostic even when they say they are," Rubin claims. THiNKnrg is careful to remain truly technology agnostic, he says, identifying the technology set that makes the most sense for each individual property.
In January of 2010, THiNKnrg officially launched. Aside from assessing properties and recommending technologies to save them money, THiNKnrg handles all the rebates, financing and installation for its customers.
Rubin snagged the company's first client, Boyer's Food Markets in Pennsylvania, through a friend who was the landlord of a supermarket building. "So much of what we've done has been through relationships, through knowing someone who can put us in front of a CEO," he says, adding that his real-estate relationships have served him well. "You can make cold calls, you can talk passionately about what you're doing, you can be genuine and honest, but in the end, it's about relationships. And I have a lot of friends."
He used his platform to identify a range of lighting, heating and cooling products that would reduce the market's energy bill, and then got the go ahead to install them. (Since then, THiNKnrg has installed projects in an additional nine Boyer's Food Markets.) The project yielded $492,967 in net savings, delivering a 43 percent internal rate of return. That first year, THiNKnrg also completed projects for Newman Paperboard, a paperboard mill, and real-estate firm Urban Innovations. By the end of 2010, the startup had become (barely) profitable.
THiNKnrg's client list has grown quickly since then, and so have its revenue and profit. In 2011, it made between $150,000 and $200,000 in profit on revenue of nearly $500,000, Rubin says. The company didn't disclose profit projections for 2012, but estimates its 2012 revenue will come to approximately $2.28 million. It also plans to reinvest $50,000 of its income in business and project development. If THiNKnrg retains a profit margin of 30 percent ($150,000 is 30 percent of $500,000), it would expect to see 2012 profit of $684,000.
Last year, it added solar heat and electricity to its playlist when it installed Cogenra's combined heat and electricity technology in the Hotel Real InterContinental in San Salvador, making it the world's first hotel with solar cogeneration technology. In August, it started developing its first mining project near Bakersfield, Calif. All together, THiNKnrg has completed more than 20 energy-efficiency and renewable-energy projects in supermarkets, hotels and other commercial and industrial buildings. It now has at least 30 qualified projects in its pipeline, including a 10-megawatt project in El Salvador and a 2 megawatt project in Guatamala.
THiNKnrg has done all of this without raising any venture financing. Rubin bootstrapped the company with money he earned during his real-estate days and quickly made his investment back, he says. "We never really wanted to get any kind of outside investment," he says. "We've been talking about it recently, but it's a lot of time and energy to go and focus on that. Our time is better spent on developing projects."

Is there actually any difference between the words? I feel like I am perfectly capable of installing a healthy fear in someone.
Elobarating on @Eldros answer.
You install a quantifiable object and it can be counted. (Installed one software, installed the President, installed two chairs etc.)
You instill a quality (fear, confidence) which cannot be counted
From Collins Cobuild English Dictionary:
So, definitely a difference.
To install can only be used on physical object (The excpetion would be piece of software, where it could be compared to a piece of equipment for the computer system). Thus fear, an emotion, can't be installed.
In can be instilled, as could idea and feelings. And when one instill fear, it is quite frightening, as it imply the feeling slowling creeping and taking hold on ones mind...

Video: Trigger cuts will impact programs to help disabled
SACRAMENTO, CA - On Tuesday, Sacramento found out how much the state will automatically cut from public schools, higher education and a range of state services.
School districts throughout California are breathing a sigh of relief. Enough tax revenue came in to avoid much of the $1.5 billion cut to education that could have meant 7 fewer days of school.
But the mid-year trigger cuts will happen at a smaller scale. They automatically take effect next month as part of the state budget Gov. Jerry Brown authorized in June.
Among the cuts, school bus service is eliminated, saving the state $248 million dollars. The Cal State and UC systems are losing a total of $200 million dollars. Services for the disabled are being slashed $100 million.
Tuition for community college students will go up $10 a unit this summer. This is on top of a similar hike this fall to absorb $30 million in cuts.
"California has very sound finances. We're on the road to recovery, and the trigger cuts which are pulled today are a part of that process of fiscal discipline," Brown said.
Republican budget leaders say the trigger cuts were necessary and show the temporary tax hikes did not need to be extended.
But critics say the price of cuts over more taxes is too high and that the elimination of bus service unfairly hits poor urban and rural kids.
"In many of those communities, they have no other choice; the parents cannot afford another car to take the kids to school," said Steve Henderson of the California School Employees Association.
Trigger cuts also mean another 7,500 fewer slots in subsidized childcare. Clarissa Doutherd warns a similar cut hurt her last summer.
"Because my son is unable to attend pre-school and there are no other options for us, I was unable to work. I was forced to resign," said Oakland mom Clarissa Doutherd. "More families are going to be in my position."
Brown used this opportunity to tout his plan to tax the rich and increase the sales tax by half-percent to avoid deeper cuts. Voters will get a say next November.
"Strategies to Empower People" or STEP is one of the programs that will feel the impact from the trigger cuts.
Training and advocacy manager Stacy Sisson said STEP is the largest supportive living agency in the state.
"We support developmentally disabled people by teaching them skills to live independently," Sisson said.
It provides people with disabilities with in-home support and job training.
Donna Wymer is learning valuable transferable skills while working at the All Shook Up Cafe. Wymer is deaf and receives services from STEP.
Through an interpreter, Wymer signed, "I love to work. I like to make my own money."
Wymer has received help from the program for the past 12 years. She doesn't not want to see anymore cuts to the services.
"I don't want the program cut. I don't want stuff to change. I want to work," Wymer signed.
Alex Nigero also receives services. He works in shipping and receiving at Pride Industries. Prior to living on his own, Nigero lived in a group home where he said he was isolated because no one knew sign language.
"Cuts are bad. I don't want to go back to a group home," Nigero signed.
The average cost of a developmental center is $340,000 a year per client. Sisson said it's more cost effective to teach people with disabilities to live independently with the services STEP provides.
Since 2009, the state has cut more than a billion dollars from the Department of Developmental Services budget.

I am having trouble with my tire thats has quick release. Everytime I go off a 1 foot drop, the tire moves out of place and starts rubbing against the frame even when i tighten it to the mac. Any suggestions?

Maybe get a new QR? I think the locking ring on your skewer may be worn out. :confused:
I had a similar problem on my 99 Rockhopper comp. The QR had a small metal 'nut' covered by plastic to make it look normal size. The metal part would slip into the recess for the deraileur hanger and the wheel would sit crooked. I just replaced the 'nut' with a full size metal one, as it has more surface area on the dropout and can't fit in the recess.
Where could i find a bigger nut and how much would it cost?
25 cents at any hardware store, just bring in the nut and they can match it.Originally posted by 01hardrockcomp

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

wicked....thx everyone.....problem solved
Chances are, you are not tightening the QR sufficiently.
Cycling Addict
(techinical questions gladly answered via AIM)
Although not one of the above mentioned, I suggest that you examine the outside surface of the dropout and the mating surface on the QR to see if either is worn smooth. You can scuff the dropout a bit with a fine metal file or replace the QR or both depending on which appears to be deficient.
2003 Iceman Challenge - 2:34:55 - 897 / 2,000*
2002 Iceman Challenge - 2:39:23 - 1093 / 2,186
2000 Iceman Challenge - 2:49:18 - 1516 / 2,153
you can see on the pic the nut on the left is the original Specialized one and the one on the right is the replacement one. The original has the black plastic around the outside, so the metal part (now a bit rusty) has a very small clamping area. This would slide into the recess where the tag lines the dropout, as it is only marginally bigger than the recess.
I had a look at my Deore front QR and it has the same design as the Specialized, although it doesn't cause problems on the front. The nut I used was off a cheap skewer that I had lying around.
On Specialized with replaceable hangers if the wheel slips out even once it will often "wipe" the hanger where the axle nut contacts it and from then on the wheel will tend to pop out til you replace the hanger(Get a cheap, beefy QR at the same time.)

The race for Texas governor moves on to November, as Rick Perry and Bill White emerged from their respective primaries without a runoff. Each used his victory speech as springboards for the coming slugfest. Ben Philpott, covering the 2010 elections for KUT News and the Tribune, filed this report.Full Story
Gov. Rick Perry and former Houston Mayor Bill White claimed their parties' gubernatorial nominations Tuesday night. U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison conceded the GOP primary, congratulating Perry on his 11th consecutive statewide victory. White, meanwhile, had enough votes to call an early victory over Farouk Shami and five other Democrats, declaring, "We're gonna have some fun, and Texans are going to come together." Later, he sent a message about a conversation with Shami: "Just spoke to Farouk Shami. Very gracious. He'll help me. I do like his idea of building solar panel factories in Texas."Full Story
If you believe the pollsters, the outcomes of today's Democratic and Republican gubernatorial primaries are all but set, as Rick Perry and Bill White have big leads in their respective races.

Will gubernatorial contests that have already cost more than $51 million last another six weeks? Will there be runoffs in judicial, legislative, or other down-ballot races? Will Texas voters go for the smart ones, the rich ones, the kooks, the old pros, the kids, or the insurgents? We'll soon know the answers to these and other pressing primary questions.Full Story
Facebook is opening up a satellite office in Austin — the first one in Texas for the California-based social media giant. The move, which will create 200 jobs, was sealed with $1.4 million from Gov. Rick Perry's Texas Enterprise Fund. The governor on Thursday also announced 100 new jobs for the small town of Cuero, thanks again to the TEF. Ben Philpott, who's covering the 2010 elections for KUT News and the Tribune and KUT News, reports on how the job-creating fund can be a pretty effective campaign tool as well.Full Story

Al Maldonado always had a love for food and little did he know what a hit Chilitos was going to be. His food has the latin flavor from countries such as Cuba, Puerto Rican and all of Latin America. He wanted to being a latin flavor to Boerne without scaring them away so by naming his mobile restaurant "Chilitos", people can associate it with what is most popular in South Texas and that is Tex-Mex. So with that said you will find tacos at Chilitos but it will lead to much more and thats what Al Maldonado has created with Chilitos.
I have been conversing with Al on his Facebook and finally I went out to Boerne to see if his food lived up to the high scores on Urbanspoon. Al is a very personable person who loves to talk about his business. He also visits his Urbanspoon page quite often because he wants to know what people think about his food. If I had a restaurant I would probably do the same thing!
Boerne is starving for a good restaurant. The most popular is a Chili's?? I can't remember the last time I went to a Chili's. Do yourself a favor and check out Chilitos because you wont be disappointed. Not only is Al's Cuban sandwich good...its one of the best tasting sandwiches of any kind I ever had...PERIOD. I don't know where he gets his bread from but WOW! Al's special sauce was amped up a little cause I told him to bring the heat. But if I had to tell you to only get this I would be lying...There are two things you must try when at Chilitos. I had an opportunity to also try what Al said was the best tamales around...and what can I say...he can back those words up too. His tamales make places like Delicious Tamales look like the "McDonalds of Tamales" I will make that trip in December to get my tamales at Chilitos. If you are interested in the best tamales in South Texas, then give Al a call.

Most IT organizations are taking IT resources such as servers, applications and storage out of branch offices and placing them in centralized data centers. This raises some critical questions: How can IT organizations overcome the impediments to the broad deployment of virtual desktops? Should the next generation branch office be serverless? What type of device(s) needs to still be in the branch office and how is it managed? What techniques can be used to overcome the performance issues? The speakers on this panel will answer those questions and will present alternative designs for your next generation branch office.
One impact of the movement to use more private and public cloud computing solutions is that it increases the likelihood that IT resources will be accessed over a relatively low capacity, high latency WAN. Even worse, in some cases these IT resources will be accessed over multiple WAN links. The panelists on this session will identify both the performance challenges associated with cloud computing as well as myriad technologies and services that IT organizations can use to mitigate the impact of those challenges.

But this persimmon and bourbon pie is something else. It's enchanting. I've made two different versions now - a muted, sweeter version, and a spicy and slightly more alcoholic version. Both were amazing. :D
Plus, the vanilla crumble on top is really tasty and dead easy. I think you could put it on top of any fruit and have a masterpiece on your hands.
This recipe was inspired by this pear and persimmon one - though I tweaked and modified quite a bit, because I can never just follow a recipe.
Step 1: Ingredients
- a pie crust (I used a store bought one to save time)
- 10-15 fuyu persimmons
- shot of bourbon (1-2 tablespoons)
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup sugar (taste your persimmons before adding so you don't go too sweet!)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of cloves
- pinch of salt
for the vanilla crumble:
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup butter (half a stick)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
The version listed here is the smoother, mellower pie. The boy enjoyed that one much more, so I figure that one is best to present here. If you love cinnamon and cloves, feel free to add more! It's yummy regardless. :D
You'll also want a nice pie pan. I like these glass Pyrex ones!
Step 2: Prep the persimmons
The way I do this is to cut off the top and bottom of the persimmon, and then make small angled cuts from the top and bottom to the middle. This trims off the most skin with the least effort. Once you've done that, take the knife and trim around the middle - there may be some pieces of skin left!
Then cut the persimmons in half and into thin slices.
Try cutting the persimmon in half and scoop out the centre with a spoon.
