Whitney Houston Not Banned from Prince Concerts [VIDEO]
Recent reports that Whitney Houston has been banned from all future Prince shows are apparently not true.
The AP, TMZ, and other sources said that Houston's bizarre behavior, and constant request for tickets to Prince's shows, led the purple one to permanently ban Whitney from his shows. Prince's camps says it's a lie, and according to the Examiner.com:

Nothing makes me happier than when my colleagues and friends create something amazing and new in our industry. I get excited and like a proud mamma bear. Today's blog post is one of my favorites because I get to introduce a fantastic new app created by two of the most talented and hardest working women in the makeup industry.
Kim Greene and Melissa Street have been makeup artists in the film and television industry for over 20 years, and created the innovative beauty app MyFaceChart. This app not only allows you to customize the face chart to match your clients specific face shape, eye, mouth and nose shape, but also gives you amazing Pro Tips based on the needs of your face chart. Learn how to properly contour a square face or deep set eyes! You can also add the picture of your client, or the inspiration that you want to the makeup to emulate. I was absolutely astounded by all of the different looks I could create, and the ease of continuity.
So, of course I grabbed Melissa and asked her to share some of her secrets with me:
Best tips for busy women: A 3 minute makeup – concealer, powder, liner (smudge into lash line – top), curl lashes, one coat of mascara, use a lip/cheek tint on both cheeks and lips.
What are three of your must have products: 1) Mascara 2)Lip Gloss 3)concealer
Your Holy Grail Product: Jan Marini Transformation Cream
Biggest Makeup/Beauty mistake: Not removing your makeup at night! It is a must! Don't care how tired you are!
Best piece of advice your mother gave you about beauty: take care of your skin always – pamper it, hydrate it, love it!
Beauty tips for mature skin: slather on the moisturizer all year long (at night) and bring it all the way down your neck to the chest – rub left over moisturizer onto the backs of your hands!
If you are interested in trying out the app, and sharing your makeup artistry skills, than you must enter the Halloween Chart Art Contest!

3,500 Herd fans made trip to Morgantown
MORGANTOWN -- An estimated 3,500 Marshall fans made their way to cold and dreary Morgantown, only to travel back to Huntington disappointed after a 24-7 loss to West Virginia at Milan Puskar Stadium in the 2009 Friends of Coal Bowl.
Poor weather conditions -- 41 degrees and rainy -- took a toll on the amount of fans for both teams in the announced crowd of 54,432, but some Thundering Herd fans said conditions and rain could not keep them away from the Mountain State's biggest football game of the year.
"There aren't as many this year as there were last year, partially because of the way we were treated, partially because of the weather -- but I'm glad for the people that did come and support the team in the cold," Huntington's Sheri Knuckles said. "Despite the rain and the cold, I'm having a good time."
Barboursville's Mike Ballard sat in the rain with his family, taking in the contest's final moments despite the outcome being well in hand.
Ballard said the unique atmosphere of taking in a game in Morgantown adds even more fuel to his desire to cheer on the Thundering Herd.
"Even though the fans here aren't as pleasant as we like, they aren't going to keep me from rooting for the Herd," Ballard said. "I think we gave a great defensive stand. I think if we could've gotten the offense going in the second half, we'd have been right with them."
Knuckles and Ballard had plenty to cheer about in the first half as Marshall dominated play and took a 7-3 lead into the locker room.
However, missed opportunities and two second-half turnovers turned into another win for West Virginia, who moved to 9-0 in the all-time series between the teams.
While Ballard and Knuckles had a good time in Morgantown, the mood was different among Herd players who thought that they let Marshall's first win in series history slip through their hands.
Now, Marshall players have to wait until Sept. 11, 2010, to attempt to earn the school's first win in series history when the Mountaineers come to Joan C. Edwards Stadium in Huntington.

It was inevitable for me, having eaten at both Kazu and Kushigin to make comparisons on the offerings by both since the focus is on charcoal grills. After tonight, Kazu remains the undisputed option simply because, it edges Kushigin out a notch in terms of quality, and beats them hands down in variety. Though I must lament the disappointment that I have for being out of the shortneck clams and anglerfish liver which I had originally intended to make home in my stomach tonight. The crab and pumpkin croquette has also been replaced by the crab and corn.
This is a minced chicken in miso sauce over cooked pumpkin. Nothing fancy but if you like pumpkin, you'll probably want to give it a try. I thought it turned out to be quite a good snack. Even the carb fillers here are something to look forward to in the department of taste.
This is basically rice infused with oyster flavor and some bits of vegetables. The portions was actually quite small, so it doesn't fill up very much. Served hot, it turned out rather tasty and felt a lot like yam rice. The only gripe on this is that there is very little oyster that comes with the rice. I counted only one oyster. Would have been good to have a couple more in it. This wasn't featured on the menu since it's seasonal.
Excellent stuff. The scallops and prawns are deceptively juicy as with all the other grills in this place.
Did I say deceptively juicy before? Here's another one that you can pay heed to.
Kazu serves a mean lamb chop. I mean this boned in meat tops the one I had at Kushigin which I thought was pretty damn good already. Sizzling hot meat and fat wrapped with char marked surface with pinkish juicy flesh near the bone, you'll be surprised how many other places that serve lamb don't do lamb chops this good.
These sweet potatoes were nothing short of excellent stuff. Even more so with the butter which you can rub over and let melt into the potato which is exuding fragrance and sweet in it's own right. If you haven't had these Japanese sweet potatoes before, this would be a good place to try them. I ended up eating the whole thing, skin and all. The cooking process was just a grill and what was tasted is essentially just the potato where condiments are really unnecessary and the butter was but a plus.
This seems to be a signature tiramisu of Kazu. The reason as explained by the server, why it is called bbq tiramisu is because the top of the mascarpone is scorched to create a moderately charred fragrance before the cocoa powder is sprinkled on the surface. The result is a smoky fragrance that comes with the bitter (and choke inducing) cocoa with the sweet mascapone cream which actually has texture like a soft pudding rather than cream.

How to Prepare for the Unpredictable Weather in the UK
Two of the main things that the United Kingdom is renowned for are amazing locations and unpredictable weather. These two things go together like chalk and cheese, a sudden downpour of rain can quickly dampen spirits when you're taking in a wonderful country trail.
With this in mind, there are some things that everybody should consider to ensure that they are ready for the unpredictability of weather in the United Kingdom. There can't be many things more predictable than this.
Check the forecast
The weather here is much like that seen in the rest of Western Europe – it is fickle and you need to be ready for change. If the weather forecast does do the decent thing and tell you that it will be fine all day still be a little wary as things can be liable to change in the blink of an eye. Hopefully however it will remain fair for the duration of your trip. By being on the ball with the forecast you can ensure that you book your holiday cottages with the best chance of good weather.
Preparing for the worst
In all walks of life, you need a contingency plan, and on a British holiday this is exactly the same. It can be a case of forward thinking and ensuring that there are picturesque views and indoor facilities for you and your family to enjoy. If you do have pets, then there are many dog friendly holiday cottages for you to enjoy where everybody is allowed to huddle around the warm open fire inside if the worst does happen.
Chasing the sun
When it comes to the weather, some people just want to play the percentages and hope that they can head to a place where there is a higher likelihood of sun. In that case, keep away from Scotland and head to the South West and the many coastal retreats and havens that places like Dartmoor or Cornwall have to offer.
Sometimes you just have to get wet
Without sacrifice there can be no victory is how the saying goes, and while it is often used for actions on a bigger scale it can be used for holidays too. The weather is going to be unpredictable regardless of what you want to do, and for this reason, you need to just hit places like the Cotswolds, Peak District, Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District with the appropriate clothing for any weather. For rambling and hiking, you need strong boots and multi-purpose clothing is a given so why not risk the rain and head off anyway?
The fact of the matter is, you're going to meet rain at some point whether you want to or not. There are many things that you can do to lower the risk, but if you carry the appropriate clothing for all weather then you will never struggle with wet and windy days.

This meditation for third eye opening serves as a beginner's guide to safely work with the energy of the third eye. This is just one meditation out of many. Feel free to try the meditation out for a couple weeks and see how you feel. Remember, spiritual undertakings of any kind are a commitment of faith and dedication of focus over a lifetime.
The third eye, associated with the brow chakra and pineal gland, is responsible for all sixth sense abilities. We all have a sixth sense awareness but many people allow the voice of the ego to interfere with messages that we receive on a constant basis. The more you open your third eye and become more aware of what you were previously unaware of, the more conscious you are of all the answers to every question that you have.
What is Meditation?
Meditation is the practice of receiving. This is best done when the conscious mind is "quiet" so you are able to hear the voice of the Spirit Mind (subconscious). Meditation has many different forms and names but the common goal is to quiet the mind chatter. When we meditate, we dip into the alpha brainwave. The alpha state is conducive for opening the third eye.
What is Third Eye Activation?
To be honest, your third eye is activated at birth. Activation simply means to begin. What we are really doing is working with and enhancing the energy of the third eye. There are many levels of spiritual awareness and many paths to reach a state of enlightenment. Here are some abilities that are associated with an active third eye: clairvoyance, remote viewing, lucid dreaming, mediumship, telepathy, channeling, astral projection, psychic reading, telekinesis etc.
More information: What is Third Eye Activation?
Easy Meditation for Third Eye Activation
- Place yourself in a quiet and dark room that is only lit by a candle.
- (Optional) Play relaxing sounds in the background or play a binaural beat with headphones. See Meditation MP3s
- Sit in a comfortable position in front of the candle (2-3 feet away). Make sure your spine is straight and your feet are flat on the floor. You may also substitute with any sitting arrangement you find comfortable (indian style, lotus position etc.).
- Stare loosely (glance) at the flame while consciously imagining that the heat is tingling your third eye. Maintain the glance into the flame and really feel the heat pulsating your third eye.

Outdoor adventures program
The Los Lunas Parks and Recreation Outdoor Adventures program was enjoyed by community youth this week, especially the archery and BB gun program.
The summer event is for children ages 8-12 years old, and is a week-long event similar to a mini summer camp, with a variety of activities planned from 8 a.m. to noon, Monday through Friday.
The Los Lunas Search and Rescue park rangers host the event with assistance from college students, who have been hired as aides by the Village Parks and Recreation Department.
"I think it's a pretty good camp," said Nathaniel Martinez, 12. "So far, (my favorite activity) would have to be archery, because I got to shoot a dinosaur."
"I do a lot (of archery) at home," said Brianna Griego, 12. "My uncle brought me a bow and then he started to teach me. I got really good at it."
The targets included a steer, a deer and a small target in the shape of a mosquito, as well as the large dinosaur target.
Estevan Jaramillo, 7, said the target animals looked real.
"I aimed at the ear, but hit the leaves on the ground," he said. "I didn't hit the target."
He was glad to practice target shooting, because he goes hunting with has dad, he said.
The children learned how to use a compass. Using a map and compass they learned to map unfamiliar terrain, as well as wilderness survival skills, how to make a safe camp fire and tie different types of rope knots.
The bow and arrow and BB gun target shooting also taught them gun safety and hunting skills.
The kids were taught rock repelling basics, and how to make a bird habitat, said Park Ranger Andrew Gutierrez.
Wildlife educator and birds of prey rescuer, Laura Simmons, visited the camp and brought large birds she had rescued that could not be released into the wild. These included an owl, a turkey vulture and a hawk, the kids said.
"That was really cool," said Joshua Sanchez, 12. "But the owl only had one eye."
"The hawk was missing a toe," added Martinez.
"And she can't catch food," his sister, Toni, said.
Friday's activities included a trip to Tingley Beach to fish, and a barbecue.
The camp provided good, wholesome fun and the opportunity to acquire basic, valuable skills.
"It's fun because you get to do a lot of activities," said 11-year-old Justin Clark.
The Los Lunas Parks and Recreation Department began Outdoor Adventures to enhance the quality of life for local youth, said Jason Duran, search and rescue team member.
Pat Jaramillo, the park ranger supervisor, has always enjoyed doing things with his nieces and nephews, he said, and he wanted to get involved in outdoor fun for local youth, something he wished would have been available when he was younger.
Schools have summer sports, so Jaramillo wanted to offer wilderness excursions.
Five years ago, working with former Park Ranger Michael McDaniel, they initiated the Outdoor Adventure program.

What are the pros? Super germination
What are the cons? none
This is my first time growing this melon. I planted 18 seeds and had all of them sprout. The majority of them sprouted in just three days. I started them on a heat mat. I am looking forward to tasting this one. I will write an update at the end of the season.

What are the pros? Fast maturity
What are the cons? Nothing
This is a very hardy vine that can survive the New Mexican heat like a champ with a bit of shade. Planted them in starters and the seedling survived a windstorm that toppled my greenhouse. The vine grows fast and the watermelons grow very quickly. Beautiful vine! Definitely going to grow them next year too!
3 out of 3 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? early, sweet
I grew this for the first time this year. It is a pretty watermelon with sweet flavor and it also has a nice texture. It is only July 24th and I am in zone 6 so I would say it is a pretty early melon. I am growing 4 varieties this year and I definitely plan to grow this one again next year.
5 out of 5 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? Great Tasting, Early
What are the cons? Nothing really
This is the first year I've had a garden and the first time, obviously, that I've grown melons. I bought four varieties (Eden's Gem, a honey dew, Orageglo, and the White Sugar Lump) and this one has been my favorite. It was the first one to produce a ripe melon and has the best taste.
I can't really comment on it's ease of growing since I don't have much experience beyond this year. I did have a lot of problem with cucumber beetles and mildew with it being such a wet year. The Eden's Gem and my honey dews were killed completely while the Sugar Lump has hung in there really well. It does seem to be a bit less resilient than the Orangeglo which produced extremely long hardy vines and foliage.
I'm not sure what's happened with the reviewers I've seen here and elsewhere who say that these melons don't have much flavor. I honestly think it's the best melon I've ever tasted and one of the sweetest.
4 out of 4 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros?
What are the cons?
Grew these in a greenhouse last year in the cool Pacific Northwest, was only able to get one vine though, and ended up with one melon that made it to maturity. The melon was very small, and maybe I picked it too soon, but it wasn't too great. It had a refreshing vanilla-like taste, almost like ice-cream, but it was quite mild too. I don't have room in my greenhouse to try it again this year, but maybe next year. Hopefully I will get better results.

Rx drug information, pharmaceutical research, clinical trials, news, and more
Hydroxyzine pamoate is a light yellow, practically odorless powder practically insoluble in water and methanol and freely soluble in dimethylformamide.
Hydoxyzine (hydroxyzine) is indicated for the following:
For symptomatic relief of anxiety and tension associated with psychoneurosis and as an adjunct in organic disease states in which anxiety is manifested.
Useful in the management of pruritus due to allergic conditions such as chronic urticaria and atopic and contact dermatoses and in histamine-mediated pruritus.
As a sedative when used as premedication and following general anesthesia, hydroxyzine may potentiate meperidine (Demerol®) and barbiturates, so their use of these agents in pre-anesthetic adjunctive therapy should be modified on an individual basis. Atropine and other belladonna alkaloids are not affected by the drug. Hydroxyzine is not known to interfere with the action of digitalis in any way and it may be used concurrently with this agent.
The effectiveness of hydroxyzine as an antianxiety agent for long term use, that is, more than 4 months, has not been assessed by systematic clinical studies. The physician should reassess periodically the usefulness of the drug for the individual patient.

groups in a ratio of 1:2... Current
evidence support that hydroxyzine is effective and well tolerated for treating
bruxism in children.
Short-term effects of morning versus evening dose of hydroxyzine 50 mg on cognition in healthy volunteers. [2011.06]It is well known that the sedative properties of antihistamines can differ considerably between individual drugs... It is concluded that hydroxyzine-induced impairment at tmax is more prominent after morning doses compared with evening doses and that the present study could not present direct evidence to substantiate the hypothesis that histamine availability inversely affects the magnitude of antihistamine impairment.
[Effects of hydroxyzine on tolerance of facial mask during induction in children] [2010.01]OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of hydroxyzine as a premedication agent for the acceptance of facial mask during induction of general anaesthesia in children... CONCLUSION: Hydroxyzine provided better acceptance of facial mask than placebo during induction of general anaesthesia in children. Copyright 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
Comparison of peripheral and central effects of single and repeated oral dose administrations of bilastine, a new H1 antihistamine: a dose-range study in healthy volunteers with hydroxyzine and placebo as control treatments. [2008.12]Peripheral anti-H1 and central nervous system (CNS) activities after single (day 1) and repeated (day 7) administrations of increasing doses of bilastine (BIL) were assessed in 20 healthy volunteers throughout a crossover, randomized, double-blind, placebo (PLA)-controlled study... The 40-mg dose of BIL produced subjective report of sedation, whereas unwanted objective CNS side effects were observed only with the 80-mg dose.
Levocetirizine Plus Bed-Time Hydroxyzine in the Management of Corticodependent Chronic Urticaria Versus Both Drugs Alone in High Doses [Recruiting]
Allen Kaplan is a prominent American allergist with the reputation of leader in the field of
chronic urticaria. He advocates treatment with first generation hydroxyzine, which he
considers at least as effective as modern second generation H1-blockers in suppressing the
symptoms of difficult-to-treat / systemic-steroid-dependant cases of chronic urticaria. He
further speculates that hydroxyzine may have the advantage to better suppress itch and
improve nighttime sleep. This has prompted many practitioners around the world to believe
that adding hydroxyzine to the treatment regimen at bed time at night may be beneficial to
patients. At the same time European guidelines indicate modern second generation H1-blockers
in higher than conventional doses as drugs of choice for such cases. However, there is no
evidence from clinical trials addressing this controversy. The investigators' previous
studies suggest that levocetirizine at quadruple doses may be beneficial in difficult to
treat urticaria by reducing lesions and itch, improving quality of life and night time
sleep, while not causing day time somnolence. First generation H1-receptor antagonists and
hydroxyzine among them are known to penetrate the blood / brain barrier and to cause
sedation. The question stays whether this sedation is beneficial to the subjects with
chronic urticaria at night, whether it has any hang-over unwanted effects the following day
and whether this has any influence on the overall urticaria-specific quality of life.
Does Hydroxyzine Decrease Anxiety in Patients With Anorexia Nervosa Study [Not yet recruiting]
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of hydroxyzine in the treatment
of meal-related anxiety in children and adolescents 8 to 17 years of age diagnosed with
anorexia nervosa. The investigators want to find out if hydroxyzine given before meals will
improve meal-related anxiety compared to no hydroxyzine.
Pain and Anxiety Management of Traumatic Emergency in a Pre-hospital Setting [Recruiting]
Unexpected acute pain in an emergency setting causes anxiety, insecurity, and stress that
can diminish perceptions of control over pain and diminish ability to decrease pain. This
may interfere with the opioid treatment and poses the question of whether an anxiolytic drug
added to the morphine titration could relief pain and/or anxiety. This randomized
double-blind group clinical trial is designed to determine the efficacy and safety of
hydroxyzine in addition to a conventional intravenous morphine titration protocol.
Comparative Effects of Rupatadine 10 mg, Hydroxyzine 50 mg and Placebo on Actual Driving Performance [Terminated]
The primary objective of this study is to measure and compare the acute effects of rupatadine
10 mg, relative to placebo and hydroxyzine 50 mg as an active control on healthy volunteersâ
performance on a standard over-the-road driving test and a car-following test.
Effect of Intradialytic Parenteral Nutrition on Morbidity and Mortality of Malnourished Hemodialysis Patients [Terminated]
IDPN is widely used in HD patients without clue of its effectiveness. Study objectives: to

Bill Engvall to appear with Larry the Cable Guy on May 17 at the Big Sandy arena
In a 30-plus-year comedy career, Texas native Bill Engvall has just about done it all -- books, TV, movies, radio, animation and, of course, stand-up comedy.
While the multi-platinum recording artist and Grammy nominee will be voicing an animated character in a new summer show for CMT currently titled "Bounty Hunters," which also stars Larry the Cable Guy and Jeff Foxworthy, and is working on many other projects, he still is in love with the thrill of live stand-up comedy, especially with his fellow Blue Collar Comedy alum Larry the Cable Guy.
Armed with Larry's signature "Git R Done" and Bill's signature "Here's Your Sign" the two are out tag-teaming a tour that sets up shop at 7:30 p.m. May 17, at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena
Tickets are $25, $49.75, $59.75. Very limited Gold Circle seats are also available for $75 (fees may apply) available at Big Sandy Superstore Arena box office, www.ticketmaster.com, all Ticketmaster outlets, and by phone at 800-745-3000.
The comedian, who in addition to his work on the Blue Collar Comedy Tour (whose live DVDs have sold more than 9 million copies) starred in and executive produced his own sitcom for TBS, "The Bill Engvall Show," which ran for three seasons, said that he loves the tour because the two friends work so well together personally and professionally.
"It is two completely different styles of comedy as Larry is the rapid fire joke teller, and I am the story teller," Engvall said. "When we did the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, Jeff and I are very similar, and in fact, there are hints on Wikipedia that we are cousins, but with this show, Larry really is different and I think that works well so it's two headliners who are very strong and who also have two completely different outlooks on life. I think that still makes it more interesting. I've been doing this for 30-plus years and I don't want to become that old grouchy comic. One of my deepest regrets was going to see George Carlin before he went out. George was never happy any way, but at the end, it became awful. I've always said when it stops being fun it's time to go home."
Engvall, who starred in and executive produced his own self-titled sitcom for TBS, which ran for three seasons and who has been in several films, said that moving to L.A. where he has been able to find steady work as an actor in TV and film, has really helped the stand-up routine.
"I think it's important to diversify and for me a prime example is that my acting has made my stand-up a lot better," said Engvall who in 1997, won the 'Best Selling Comedy album' award at the annual NARM convention, outselling albums by Chris Rock and Adam Sandler. "Now I am much more aware of how to create this story and that we have a lot more layers as opposed to oh, my wife griped at me the other day. I've been really lucky and feel blessed to do this for this long and at this level."
In addition to the new animation series, Engvall just shot a pilot for a new comedy called "Home Team," about a bunch of quirky folks working a home improvement store. Other actors with Engvall include Cheech Marin, Ben Rappaport (from "Outsourced") and Melora Hardin from "The Office."
"The story line is neat with all of these people who work in a home improvement store and just dealing with what is going on with the world today," Engvall said.
For Engvall his storyline is one he finds hard to believe that some 30 years after starting his live comedy career he still finds himself alone on stage with a mic, a story and an audience.
"If you would have told me 30 years ago that I would still be doing this now I would be like 'I don't know what you're smoking but I'll have some of it'," Engvall said laughing.
He attributes his longevity in the business to staying steady, staying clean and giving people an escape, a chance to just laugh in a world consumed 24/7 by often bad news scrolling on the TV.
"I've lost a lot of HBO one-night stands and comedy specials because I'm clean but in the long run I have worked twice as long as a lot of those people who had specials," Engvall said. "I want my comedy to be like a release that people feel they can go and not be preached at about Obama and religion, they hear that all day long. What I try to tell young comics is that you can talk about whatever you want but you just don't have to be so graphic about it. I'm not Disney On Ice. I had a lady say 'is your show dirty?' I said 'you go to your kids playground and stand there for 20 minutes and if you hear anything worse than that at my show I will get you your money back.' You don't have to spell it out."

Hoffman making tracks with a near-record round at TravelersBy PAT EATON-ROBB
The Associated Press | June 21,2013
AP PHOTO Charley Hoffman watches his drive on the 18th hole during the first round of the Travelers Championship in Cromwell, Conn., on Thursday. Hoffman birdied the hole to finish at 9-under par 61.CROMWELL, Conn. Charley Hoffman missed the course record by a stroke, but shot 61 Thursday to take the lead after the first round of the Travelers Championship, a year after he blew a two-stroke advantage on the tournaments final two holes.
In his latest round, Hoffman hit a 126-yard approach shot within 3-feet of the pin to help him birdie 18 and separate himself by a stroke from Hunter Mahan, who posted an early 62. Bubba Watson was two strokes back.
Hoffman said he thought he might have a chance to go even lower, and was flirting with 59 after making eagle on 10 and 12, and going to 8-under par with a birdie on 16. His 28 on the back nine was the lowest 9-hole score on Tour this year.
I knew I had some chances coming in, he said. But when its said and done, as I displayed last year, 16, 17 and 18 arent an easy test. So I was just trying to make some pars coming in.
Hoffman, Mahan and Watson all have interesting histories in Connecticut.
Hoffman finished tied with Watson for second last year after it seemed he had the tournament sewed up. He made double bogey on 17, then bogeyed the 18th after failing to get up and down from a greenside bunker, handing Marc Leishman the title.
Its nice to come back after that finish last year, and come back and shoot 61 and put myself back in the lead, Hoffman said.
Mahan is the 2007 champion and has two second-place finishes in his 11 previous starts at the TPC River Highlands.
I think this is the most comfortable course on tour for me, he said.
Coming off a fourth-place finish after being in the final pair at the U.S. Open, Mahan kept it rolling here, opening the day by making the first of eight birdies during a bogey-free round. He was also at 8-under with three holes to play before shooting par on the final three holes.
This is a golf course where you can be aggressive off the tee if you want to be, but you can also play it safe, he said. I choose to be mostly aggressive, and it gives me some short irons. Im happy to take on pins with my short irons. So its a combo of things, but all I know is when I step on that tee, I feel like I can hit any shot out here.
Watson finds himself in contention again after winning in 2010 and tying Hoffman as the runner up a year ago. He said there is a reason so many familiar names are at the top of the leaderboard.
These are guys that love this course, that love this tournament, they love Travelers and how theyve treated us here, he said. And so, youre always going to see pretty much some of the same guys up there because they enjoy this area and this golf course.
A group of six golfers was four strokes back.
The biggest ovation of the day came when Justin Rose was introduced on the first tee as the U.S. Open champion. Rose went on to shoot a 67, leaving him in good shape heading into Friday.
Obviously, Im playing well, he said. I just knew I had to get through today without too much damage. If you manage to keep it in the mid-60s for most of the week, you should do pretty well.
Rose also announced that he is changing management companies, leaving British-based 4Sports & Entertainment for Excel Sports, the same company that represents Tiger Woods.
I just felt with me playing so much here in the states and where I felt my game was going, I just felt it was a decision I wanted to make, he said.
The round marked the pro debut Chris Williams, the top-ranked amateur in the world the past season. He shot a 1-over 7, with two bogies and a single birdie.
The first tee, I was a little nervous, he said. But then it was the same old, same old. I didnt play very well, so that was pretty frustrating, but I got it out of the way.MORE IN Wire SportsBOSTON The Boston Red Sox will have to wait a little longer to start rebuilding their team.

Following a postponement of close to thirty years I revisited a series of simple pencil studies I had worked on soon after leaving school. From these studies I launched a delayed but renewed creative effort of colored pencil drawings and acrylic paintings.
For the last few years most of what I have done has been generated by an experience with my grandson. He had put together an airplane using popular children's building bricks and asked me to draw it. Their geometric forms, their pure colors along with the creative vision of a child embodied in these toys captured my adult attention and spurred much of my work for the last few years.

It appears that Fox Searchlight has discovered a new way to churn out remakes – start remaking documentaries. The studio has purchased the remake rights to the Sundance documentary The Bengali Detective, which is described as follows:
In response to police corruption, the private detective business has become increasingly common in India. The Bengali Detective follows the life of detective Rajesh Ji, who, along with his ragtag team of assistants, investigates cases ranging from counterfeit hair products to a brutal triple murder. When Rajesh is not sleuthing, he has big dreams of competing on a televised national talent show, so he and his detective gang form a dance troupe—which must be seen to be believed—and rehearse for their big audition.
So it's a musical documentary about a dance troupe in India who solve mysteries. That sounds really cool! I'd love to watch– oh, a remake. Well, that sounds OK too, I guess. No details yet on whether the remake is going to be another documentary (unlikely), or a fictional treatment of the same material. (SlashFilm)

continued Shawna Armstrong is one of the center's newest additions, having assumed the role of Gallery and Graphics Coordinator in September.
She said big things are happening at the NCCCA, starting with a members exhibition opening Friday, Dec. 7 from 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Anyone who is a member of the NCCCA can submit work, which will be on display through Jan. 12.
The exhibition will also mark the first time the public can set foot on the gallery's new floor, which will be a dark woodgrain replacing the previous carpet.
The small gift store is also being transformed into a library and will be used as an artist's market four times a year.
Armstrong added that the center has been making a concerted effort to get the word out about upcoming events sooner, which will give people more time to work those things into their schedules.
She is optimistic that the changes will result in an increased interest in the NCCCA, and that more exhibits and workshops will be offered in the months to come.
The center is important for the community, and especially important for the children, she said.
"This is a place for them to meet other kids; it's a social place," Armstrong said. "And anything they can do to build something with their hands is beneficial."
The hands-on approach is something Armstrong said can carry over into their future endeavors.
And as she stood by, watching the children's little hands as they eagerly created snow-globe worthy scenes out of the clay cut-outs, the smile that stretched across her lips said it all.
"This gets their imaginations going," Armstrong said. "You need to be creative in any field you go into, and this is where that starts."
The next two holiday workshops will be held Saturday, Dec. 8. Create a Personalized Calendar will run from 10:30am – 12:30pm and is for ages 7-12. Children under 7 can participate with an adult.
Kids' Clay Ornaments will run from 2:30 – 3:30 p.m. for ages 5 – 7 and 4 – 5 p.m. for ages 8 – 13.
The workshops cost $25 for non-members and $20 for members, with all materials included.
Second Sunday Family Arts will make holiday ornaments Sunday, Dec. 9 from 1 – 3 p.m. The cost is $5 per child or $12 for a family of 3 or more. All materials are included.

Effective time management is an indispensable skill. In Time Management Fundamentals, Dave Crenshaw explains how to sensibly allocate time in order to achieve greater productivity. Dave details a set of principles for staying organized, consolidating the workspace, keeping a clear mind, and developing a time budget. Also covered are techniques for managing a full inbox, processing email, and reserving time for the most important activities.
This course qualifies for 2.75 Category A professional development units (PDUs) through lynda.com, PMI Registered Education Provider #4101.
Before I walk you through how to process email, I need to take a moment and show you how to set up email rules-- sometimes referred to also as filters. Email rules, or filters, are automatic rules on how to deal with certain emails when they come in. The most basic example of this is a coupon email from your favorite business. Many people are afraid to sign up for coupons because they're worried that it's going to clog up their email inbox. I'll show you what I do and why I sign up for every coupon site for vendors that I frequent regularly, and why it doesn't affect my inbox at all.
Here we have a coupon from a local pizza place. I like to order pizza from them, and I'd like to be able to get coupons that I use regularly. So what I'll do on this email is I'll right-click on the email, and then you'll see an option that says create a rule. I can also create rules at Home, the Move section, the Rules button, and clicking on Manage Rules and Alerts, and set them up manually, but it's easiest to do with an existing email. So I'm going to right-click, go to Create Rule.
You'll see this window where you can create a wide variety of different rules for an email. If I get an email from a certain email address, if it has certain words in the subject, is sent to certain email accounts, and so on. There are more advanced options too, but really all we need is the most simple kind of rule: what email address did it come from? I'll select the rule if I get an email from this pizza place and I'm going to automatically move the item to a folder. Now it asks me to select a folder.
Remember that Resource folder that I had you create? Here it's okay to create a new folder under Resource. I can do this for one reason; this is automatic filing. It requires no future effort on my part. Also, using a separate presorted folder saves time by making it easy for me to find these rule-based emails when I need them again. So I'm going to create a folder called Coupons, and then I click OK. Then I'll make sure that I check the mark where it says Apply to all emails in this folder, and then click OK.
Now you'll notice that it searches the email inbox and throws the email into the Coupons folder I created. This makes it very, very easy for me in the future if I ever need to buy something. I can just go to the Coupons folder, or I can search for the email and find it very quickly to get the discounts or the best deals. You can apply these same kinds of rules for all sorts of informational emails that you get, such as newsletters and software updates. I once worked with a mortgage company that would get rate updates multiple times through the day, and then we put them all into that folder.
That way it didn't clog up the inbox, but they could still access it at any time once they needed the newest information. Now an important caution: avoid setting a rule for an email where you may have to process it manually. Doing so would create more than one email gathering point. The only place you should even need to check email is your inbox. Let me give you an example. Let's say your favorite aunt has the habit of sending you funny pictures and stories a lot.
Be careful about creating a rule for her because if she does send you something it does have critical information, then you may miss out on it. Remember, when you set a rule for an email you're telling the computer to automatically answer all of the "what, when, where: processing questions for you. What's the next step? Store the email. When will it be done? Right now. Where is its home? The folder. It handles all of that automatically for you, so make sure that you don't set a rule for any email account where you might have to check the email and process it.
Rules and filters, when used properly, can save you valuable time and make processing even easier.

The Sailors and Soldiers Fathers' Association was established during World War I and apparently had branches in most states. In Victoria, the Association was formed in May 1918. It aimed to promote the interests of all sailors and soldiers who had been on active service. By March 1921, it had 11,393 members and 84 branches across the state. It ran the journal 'Our Empire'. It worked for preference to returned men, better payments to war widows, attention to war graves, and forms of repatriation. Flags such as this were waved by members of the Association to welcome home returning men, in 1918-1920.
The Sailors and Soldiers Fathers' Association protested against foreign, particularly Southern European, immigration in the 1920s.

Despite 2011's poor results, Otto says 2012 should be better because the financial markets were stronger.

I realized that there was no way I could get around the chore of cleaning our dogs' ears when Rodrigo's ears kept getting that yeasty smell; especially after rainy days. He has ears that flop over, holding in the moisture and allowing the yeast to grow. Awesome!
Changing his diet to raw dog food helped; a lot. But cleaning our dogs' ears is just something that I can't get around. I was squirting ear cleaner into their ears, which they so don't love, squishing their ear around, and then wiping out the gook.
I was recently introduced to a product by Natural Paws; they also make a product for paw care that I tried last year. EARoma thEARapy has become part of our weekly regime and and love it. It's quick and easy to use, it works, and our dogs haven't had that yeasty ear smell since we started using it weekly.
This is a product that contains essential oils, something that dog owners can create at home so why buy it?
- Many times when dog owners start mixing essential oils, they're using perfume grade oils instead of oils meant for medicinal purposes.
- Essential oils need to be diluted and it's not easy to get the mix right unless you're familiar with the process.
- Mixing some oils with other homeopathic remedies (tempting, because if we use both, it'll work faster, right?) may cancel out the effective properties.
Natural Paws uses "essentials and herbs known to not only clean ears and pull moisture out, but also keep the skin itself from getting TOO dried out so it's not becoming flaky. The benefits of lemongrass range from being a natural anti-inflammatory to lymphatic system detox. It is a great insect repellent too, which we always love as a secondary use. The health benefits of eucalyptus oil (well, there's a ton, but the ones we use it for) are its anti-inflammatory, deodorant, antiseptic, antibacterial, and stimulating properties. If you're looking for what specifically cleanses the ear wax, that's mostly the soapwort. Slippery Elm helps a bit too." ~ an explanation from the owner of Natural Paws
A push towards natural…
This year, I'm going to continue transitioning towards more natural dog care. We started with their diet and we've become more choosy about the treats that we feed them. We give them natural pain killers (that actually work). We found cleaning products that are perfect for dog homes and now something that cleans our dogs ears quickly and easily.
- I spray each of the dogs in their ears, massage their ears and then wipe them clean. It's as easy as that.
- Their ears remain clean for a couple weeks and Rodrigo's ears (which get yeasty) look great.
- This is helping me acclimate the puppies to the ear cleaning routine a lot easier.
I still get the betrayed looks, but I think this is just out of habit. Since the cleaning process is so much faster, we're off to "treat time" a lot faster and then I'm forgiven.
Have you found any natural products that are better for your dogs?

Great Seasonal Menu
Was at Shin Kushiya Vivo with my buddies and was really happy to see their new Hokkaido snow crab menu. Something different.. I decided to try something from the seasonal menu, the kani kimuchi nabe udon. It was mouth-watering. The kani was sweet and juicy and the broth was appetizing and delicious. Will definitely be back to try the other Kani dishes. Other than that, we also ordered some kushiyaki for sharing. The meats were good as usual. The entire experience was fulfilling and wholesome.
Service was wonderful and friendly. GREAT!

Okay, so my fluffy great-great-uncle Scooby had a run-in with calcium oxalate bladder stones last fall. It's a weird problem where your body can't process it's calcium correctly which leads to these tiny flower looking stones forming and if you don't pass them in time they get bigger and bigger until they are too big and you need surgery to remove them.
It's meant to be fairly rare. But guess what I'm doing today? Going in for surgery for my bladder stones which appear to also be calcium oxalate!
The vet asked if we were related since there could be a genetic metabolic defect but she was not impressed by the great-great-uncle/great-grand niece genetic relationship. So what are the odds? Sure, with 14 cats in the family we're bound to get more of these little run-ins with the vet than a family with just a few cats; but 2 out of the 14 and within half a year of each other? So we tried to think of what else Scooby and I have in common besides distant relation and I think I've discovered a major cause for these darn stones...
Exhibit A- Scooby is the only fluffy cat in the house, therefore he was rightly dubbed "Fluff Muffin" as an embarrassing nickname.
Exhibit B- When Nat and I were born there was no Hillary or Dominic around to compete with our fuzziness. We fuzzed supreme. Nat was promptly dubbed "Fuzz Nugget" for his uniquely coarse fuzzy fur and I became known as the "Fuzz Muffin" for my soft thin fuzzy fur.
Do you see where this is going?
The number 1 cause of calcium bladder stones is-
So all you other fuzz muffins, love muffins, stud muffins, and just cats named "Muffin" had better get your humans to come up with new nicknames. Being a muffin is really great, but not if you have to have bloody urine and major surgery and get kept in the bathroom while you recover! Something about the surgery costing $500, too, but mostly it's not fun!
Wish me luck with my surgery and the resulting solitary confinement; and stay safe- don't be a Muffin!
Love and fuzziness,
*Disclaimer- Heidi is not qualified to give medical advice. Broader scientific studies must be done to prove any link between 'Muffinism' and bladder stones and currently diet and genetics are still thought to play a more important role. Have your human speak with your vet if you are concerned about your own risks for bladder stones. If you have been diagnosed with these pesky calcium oxalate stones changing your name from "Muffin" is not a substitute for surgical treatment and ongoing veterinary care!

This is an inexpensive way of keeping any number of brushes wet while painting with water based paints or between sessions. It can also be used for hanging brushes to dry tip downward.
Step 1: Materials needed
You will need:
1) A fairly deep square or rectangular water holder. I bought surplus motel 'ice buckets' at a kitchen supply store.
2) Pipe insulation - approximately 1.75 inch diameter with a 1 inch center hole. (From any hardware store) Other sizes will probably work.
3) Something for marking where to cut the insulation - chalk, pastel, paint, sharpie - you just have to be able to see the marks
4) An Exacto knife... this will need a fresh blade!
Step 3: Mark the area for cuts
Mark on the end of the foam where the brushes will fit without hitting the top rim of the container... You must leave enough room at the bottom (next to the tube opening) so that there is enough material to hold it all together.
Mark along the length of the insulation at those two points. You will not want to cut slits beyond these lines.
Step 4: Mark slits for brushes
Mark out slits for the brushes.
Bigger brushes need wider slits, so you'll probably want a variety of widths. The length of the slits will all be the same.
Important....The ends of the slits need to be bigger so that the foam doesn't just 'spit out' the brush when you push it in.
Step 5: Cut the slits
Use an exacto knife with a NEW blade to cut your slits.
When done, put the holder on your water container and try it out. You may find that you want to do more trimming.

I bought this because I've heard that it's a dupe for Chanel's vitalumiere aqua (apparently Bourjois owns Chanel and not the other way around) and every beauty girl on Youtube talked about it. The only place where I can get my hands on Bourjois is Shoppers Drug Mart. This foundation comes in the standard 1 oz with a pump (yay!) and retails for $28 CAD. I'm NC30 and use shade 53. I put one pump of foundation on the back of my hand and with the Real Techniques buffing brush buff it into my skin for medium coverage. Then I set it with Laura Mercier translucent loose setting powder (best one I've tried!) and apply blush. On my combination oily skin, this stuff rocks. During the summer, everything stayed in place. I've worn this combination up to 18 hours before - yes I looked shiny but that's nothing a little napkin won't fix. Previously, I've used Make Up For Ever face and body in 32 but I wanted something with more coverage, I always needed a concealer with MUFE. But with Bourjois, I can skip the concealer step unless I have a new zit. I even use a little bit of the foundation to conceal my undereye bags. I've had my bottle since May and because of the frosted glass, I can't tell how much is left unless I open it. The only cons I can think of for this product is that there's a slight fruity scent but it disappears after the foundation is applied, it's made of glass so it may not be travel friendly and limited shade selection. Overall, for the price, results and longevity, I love this little baby. HG status! :)

I've had this foundation for over an year now. To be completely honest, it's an ok foundation if your skin is not super oily. My skin is combination, it gets insanely oily after about 3-4 hours of going out. This foundation hasn't really helped me to escape from the oily face that I've always had. After I finish my second bottle of this, I'm definitely going to try and find a foundation to replace this one. Plus, it's way too pricey for such a "finish".

I absolutely love this product! It's almost empty Ok so it's really great for flaky skin as long as you moisturise if you want a matte finish, although it is still glowy it finishes quite matte. It's amazing for any skin type really but I have more dry flaky skin and it works well. The only reason I wouldn't buy again is because I prefer dewy finishes with a high amount of glow.

I really wanted to love this foundation for I have heard nothing but good things about this. It IS a wonderful foundation! BUT I am so yellow+tan that it is hard to find anything to match my Asian mixed skin. And this is supposed to be one of the few brands that actually has good options for yellow undertones. I guess Im too yellow. In MAC I am NC40-42, I bought the Bourjouis foundation in 56LightBronze. 57(darkbronze) would be a good shade for summer. I truly blame the lighting in the store, it was yellowish lightening and the foundation matched seamlessly on my skin. So for 26Swiss Francs I bought it, went home, applied it, went outside on my balcony to see my face in a hideous pink cast. Even my boyfriend commented on my "off" face.
Ok, not good shades/coloring for super yellow people, rant aside. Now good things! because this is nearly perfect.This applies, blends and covers like a high end foudnation. If you put this in a Chanel bottle, I would believe it and throw out my cash for this. Medium-full coverage(minimal amount needed), Did not accentuate pores, so smooth and creamy, not drying(yay!), natural finish(not matte and not dewy). I cant say too much about the wear time because I didnt wear this for too long but on the bottle it says "16 hour radiance". There is no SPF, which is a good thing for me, I will put on my own SPF thank you very much.
I wish I didnt shell out 26CHF for this, in my country all the prices are jacked up to a ridiculous amount. Go to Germany, France, UK, any other country(or online) not Switzerland to find this at a normal price.
This is a super foundation and for a drugstore brand! I love the performance, just not that shades. I wish it worked out for me! This is worth the hype. Check it out.

I use the shade 'light beige' 53. It has a warm/yellow undertone and it's perfect for me when I have a summer tan. I'm normally a NC20 in MAC, so in the winter this shade will definitely be too dark for me. This foundation looks extremely natural. It's probably the most natural looking foundation I've ever tried. It doesn't set to a matte finish, and yet it's not super dewy either. It just looks and feels like your natural skin. One problem I have with this foundation is that it won't last very long on the more oily areas of my face, and even in areas that aren't super oily the staying power is not great. That being said, I always set this with a translucent powder (I use nyx's HD loose setting powder), and that improves the wear time. The coverage is light-medium, though I always build it up to medium and it NEVER looks cakey. You'll definitely need a concealer though if you have broken capillaries, hyper pigmentation etc. that you want to cover. I'm not a fan of perfume in foundations, but this has not irritated my skin. While I really like this foundation, I probably won't repurchase because it contains alcohol as an ingredient. Also, the shade range is very limited.

I have been using Liquid Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation for 2 years. Last year, I purchased #52 Vanilla and was very happy with the product. Great coverage, love the pump, easy to travel with, solid color, and fresh scent. This year I purchased #53 light beige for the summer. Same comments above and loved that it gave me a slightly darker tanned color. I also added a bronzer and it was perfect. I'm trying a new product but I think I will go back to this product because it gave me better coverage. Thanks for reading!

The only reason I said I would not repurchase is because I got pustules or a blemish somewhere after I used the product! :-(
This product glides on beautifully, and for me, its shade, 52 (Vanilla) is perfect for my skin, so when applied, it's like a "second skin". The drawback is, unfortunately, if you don't use powder, your face will become quite oily after just a few hours so you either wash your face and reapply or use oil blotting papers.
I really wish I wasn't allergic to it. I got it as a gift from my close friend because 52 is a shade darker than her skin color, but sadly my skin is incompatible, probably with one of the ingredients inside it.

So i just purchased this foundation yesterday and wore it for the first time today. So far so good! I really like the coverage, and the building abilities of it. I use my karma brush from urban decay to apply all of my foundations, and i found that it works perfect for the consistency of this product. My foundation stayed put all day, and i'm excited to continue wearing this product to get my over all feel of it. But as of now, i think i made a good purchase!
