Young and old: A side-by-side look at Tumblr, Yahoo audiences
The media portal looks like a retirement community when compared with the youthfulness of its acquired friend.
Sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words.
Yahoo has agreed to acquire 6-year-old blogging powerhouse Tumblr for $1.1 billion. The mammoth deal has sent the Internet into a tizzy , especially since most would have pegged the two companies as unlikely bedfellows just a week ago.
The simplest and most obvious reason for Yahoo's interest in Tumblr can be seen in the chart above, which highlights the dramatically differing demographic profiles for the media portal and the blogging network.
It's a tale of two audiences. Tumblr is a fountain of youth. Yahoo is practically a retirement community. Specially, a majority of people, or 61 percent, who visited Tumblr properties from Web or mobile in March are 34 or younger, according to analytics firm ComScore. Conversely, 56 percent of Yahoo visitors in March are over the age of 35.
With the $1.1 billion buy, Yahoo chief Marissa Mayer has purchased some much-needed insurance for Yahoo's future.

Nine Inch Nails Triumphantly Comes Out of Retirement at Chaifetz Arena 10/1/13: Review, Photos, Setlist
Todd Owyoung
Reznor showed another mic stand who's boss during "Piggy." He angrily kicked and stumbled over the stand while the band played a version that had an odd hint of sex appeal, thanks to some stunning bass by Pino Palladino. The band continued with "All Time Low" and "Disappointed," which launched a light show that ranks up there with any of Radiohead's. With multiple LED screens now in front of and behind the group, vertical lights moved in, out and around, sometimes encasing the guys in spinning boxes. As multi-instrumentalist Josh Eustis wailed on the saxophone, the lights picked up speed and changed perspective, giving the illusion that the stage was spinning like a carousel.
Reznor's voice was exceptionally strong during "Came Back Haunted," the lead single from Hesitation Marks. White light blips resembling the screen on the Ghostbusters' P.K.E. meter only reinforced that the song will be on every Halloween party playlist this month. Reznor continued stomping around during "Find My Way" and "Satellite," at some point changing from his black tank top to a black sleeveless shirt. He heightened the crowd's ecstasy with the fist-pumping, tongue-tying "Survivalism," which was accompanied by strobes and foggy green lights that made us fear that we were breathing poison.
The audience didn't seem to appreciate "Running." Despite the RGB light show that went with it, the beep-boop slow burner appeared to be the beer-fetching song of the evening, especially as it fed into the etherial "A Warm Place" from The Downward Spiral with Reznor playing synths and keys solo. But the crowd certainly woke up again during "Somewhat Damaged," a screamo tune with hints of metal from 1999's The Fragile.
This ramped us up for the loudest, most crowd-approved section of the show. Reznor grabbed a guitar again for "Wish," and as a grid of white rectangles flashed behind them, he and guitarist Robin Finck shared their trademark buzzsaw sounds, proving that "Wish" easily would fit into any gory horror movie. "The Hand That Feeds" was just as exciting, slowed down ever so slightly and featuring extra video-game-like bloops that you won't find on the album version. And the entire arena flailed to "Head Like a Hole," a Nails anthem if there ever was one. Reznor bounced around himself and the lower strobe lights spazzed out, making the entire scene feel like a hallucination. With a smile on his face, Reznor ended the song and the lights went down, allowing a fade-in of the letters "NIN" to take center stage on the light board as the band took its encore break.
But wait, there's more! Like, 30 minutes more!
Only a minute after leaving the stage, Reznor returned solo to plunk out "The Frail" on keyboards, standing ever so still until the rest of the band joined him for a hard-hitting version of "The Wretched." As Reznor screamed "Now you know! This is what it feels like!" white lasers shot out over the audience, moving low as if they were cutting right through us.
Continue for a St. Louis debut and the setlist.

wait, seriously? that IS sad…i'm a fan of trees, myself. not a hang-out-in-one-to-keep-it-from-being-cut-down kind of extremist, but a tree lover nonetheless. they're nice and shady and green. either way…you look super chic and awesome here. love the jacket. a lot.
OH! That is a really tragic story! The poor birdies… And you live in the city, where trees aren't so plentiful… and it made for such a nice backdrop…
On another note – really like the flares and am very impressed by your dedication to the 30/30 challenge!
p.s. You have inspired me to re-read my Grandmother's copy of "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn". Thank you.
Reading your post reminded me of my mom.. who would rescue stray kittens and pups in the neigbourhood and any other animal in need. Keep up your love for them as most in our busy world are too busy to bother anymore.
This comment made my day. Thank you! I feel an overwhelming compassion for animals on a daily basis, hence my veganism. I'm happy to share this same compassion with your mother and to have reminded you of this special memory.
the cuff! I love it:) This is a nice outfit I hope the birds are ok!!
Ugh. I hope DoS did check but unfortunately I think it just depends on the workers they happen to send out that day. Hoping for the best!
Hopefully they plant a new tree there.

The Future of Science and Environmental Journalism
Science Journalism's Hope and Despair 'Niche' pubs growing as MSM circles the drain
By Curtis Brainard
(Excerpted with permission from Columbia Journalism Review's The Observatory)
About a year and a half ago, I began reporting on a story about the "state" of science journalism, which may finally see the light of day in an upcoming issue of CJR. But I was flattered to hear it mentioned yesterday by Associated Press science reporter Seth Borenstein during an excellent panel discussion about the future of the field.
I interviewed Borenstein for the story in the summer of 2007, at which time he told me that he disagreed with the notion, shared by many of his colleagues, that science journalism was in a state of crisis. Thursday morning, Borenstein affirmed that he has since changed his mind, citing numerous and seemingly senseless job cuts around the nation over the last year. Among others, he pointed to veteran space writer Craig Covault, recently laid off by Aviation Week & Space Technology when it closed its Cape Canaveral bureau (of all places). "The man covered Apollo!" Borenstein said.
Such dismay was common at the event, which was titled "The Future of Science and Environmental Journalism," and organized and hosted by the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars in Washington, D.C. (I watched via live Webcast.)
Borenstein's co-panelists included former CNN executive producer Peter Dykstra, laid off in December when the network cut its entire science team; Elizabeth Shogren, an environment correspondent for National Public Radio; and Jan Schaffer, the executive director of J-Lab, the successor to the Pew Center for Civic Journalism. Yet the despair applied mostly to the decline of traditional (or "mainstream," if you prefer) newspapers, magazines, and broadcasts. The other half of the conversation involved reasons to be (guardedly) optimistic about the growth of "niche" science publications based primarily online.

This rocker was very difficult for my kids 8 & 10 to stay on. But they didi have a great time falling off!

I love these... not sure what the others are talking about
we've had 3 , yes they do break like all floats but can take a hell of abuse, very stable- two adult can float in one - no problem. We take our in the waves and the kids love it, won't tip and the wave just sweeps it on the beach. I do abuse the heck out of ours while playing with the kids... and they do hold together pretty well. A MUST have if you have jids and a pool!

Only good for young kids!
This item looked amazing, however when i inflated and tried using it, it was very disappointing because it couldn't handle my weight. This item is only good for young kids up to 25lbs. It requires a HUGE pool and can be very dangerous because it can tip very easily and you can get injured by getting hit from the side of the pool. I think the better application for this item would be the ocean.

Toledo Will Host Rocket Invite Friday and Saturday
Toledo, OH - The Toledo men's tennis team will host the Rocket Invitational Friday, Oct. 5 and Saturday, Oct. 6 on the UT Varsity Tennis Courts after not holding the tournament last year due to resurfacing of the facility. The Rockets have played in one fall tournament thus far and hope to build momentum for the ITA Midwest Regionals on Oct. 18.
There are three other teams participating in the Rocket Invite: Ferris State, Wayne State and IUPUI. The format includes doubles play beginning at 9:00 a.m. both days with A Singles and B Singles following.
"This is always fun because we get to play right on center stage of campus," Head Coach Al Wermer said. "I think the guys are making progress with their games through our physical and technical work. We're excited to improve from more real-life situations"
Several players performed well at the Purdue Invite on Sept. 21-23, including sophomore Nick Wong who won the championship match in his singles flight. Wong won five matches while losing just one set en route to his first-career championship.
Fellow sophomore Grant Adams and junior Ben Brocker advanced to the semifinals of their flights, while senior Terence Wiegand played in the semifinal match of his flight's consolation bracket.
Live updates and results will be available through the team's Twitter account (@RocketTennis).

Dehumanizing rhetoric is often used to harm transgender people.
Here's the good news about this week's Uber fiasco: billion dollar corporations actually care what journalists say about them.
In the midst of American media's Ebola panic, from the dark recesses of the far right, Fox News contributor Erick Erickson emerged this week to reveal the villainesses behind the lack of Ebola research funding: fat lesbians.
I remember a simpler time when shopping at a craft store was not a political act. In those hazy golden days of about three years ago, I could simply waltz into a Hobby Lobby, purchase some fabric glue and sequins and not feel like I'd just turned my dollars over to a right-wing cause.
This week, the executives of Hobby Lobby and Conestoga Wood Specialties are at the Supreme Court backing a lawsuit that could gut the new federal requirement that companies' provide insurance coverage for birth control.
If you don't pay attention to the thrilling world of ice hockey, you likely haven't heard about Semyon Varlamov (above), the star goalie for the Colorado Avalanche hockey team. Last Wednesday, Varlamov turned himself in to Denver police for domestic violence. On more sports fans' radars is the news this week about Miami Dolphins' guard Richie Incognito, who is accused of bullying a young teammate so mercilessly with racist and homophobic slurs that the player felt compelled to leave the team.
Both cases highlight the tendency of sports and mainstream media to give athletes a pass for conduct that would be reprehensible in people not worth billions of dollars. But both media and management treated the two cases of abuse very differently. While Incognito's bullying of a teammate has resulted in a tidal wave of bad PR and administrative punishment, Varlamov's alleged harassment of his girlfriend has so far resulted in very little comeuppance.
This week's Douchebag Decree goes to DC Comics.
DC, you know I love your characters. I'm willing to put up with a lot in exchange for stories about the Batfamily and Wonder Woman. But you're getting beyond the realm of acceptability. In case you haven't been keeping track of the stupid things DC has done recently—there's a whole blog for that!—here's a rundown.
This week's Douchebag Decree goes to the judge who coined a new term in the ever-expanding shoulder-shrugging lexicon of "legitimate" rape: "beat-up rape."
"Yes, we believe that a partner-track attorney can be passionate about world affairs and celebrity gossip. On the same day. During the same coffee break. And there is nothing wrong with that. Welcome to the year 2013."
Anthony Weiner definitely has some problems. But his wife Huma Abedin came under fire this week as commentators speculated on why she had stuck by her sext-addict husband.
Clear Channel is a behemoth—the media conglomerate owns 850 radio stations, making them the gatekeeper of mainstream radio airwaves across much of the country. And this week, the company is being a total douchebag.
The crime? Refusing to run ads for the South Wind Women's Center, a full-spectrum reproductive healthcare clinic in Witchita, Kansas that opened this year in the space that was Doctor George Tiller's clinic before he was murdered. Clear Channel says the Kansas clinic's ads violate the company's "decency standards."

Additional Electives
MLLS 600 - Introduction to Social Entrepreneurship
Social Entrepreneurship utilizes business entrepreneurial skills to foster and create significant social benefit or change that has tremendous impact on people and the world. This course introduces students to the dynamics of the field of Social Entrepreneurship. It provides the background of how the field has emerged into its current national and global existence. We clarify the differences between business entrepreneurs and social entrepreneurs. We help to make distinctions between social entrepreneurs and business enterprises, nonprofits, philanthropic organizations and social enterprises. Students are exposed to the major players in the field of Social Entrepreneurship and hear the stories that are changing people's lives and impacting the world. We investigate several global initiatives and discuss the backgrounds of Ashoka, Grameen Bank, Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC), Skoll Foundation, Transparency International, Social Accountability International, Acumen Fund, etc.
MLLS 704 - Leading Teams
In the fast-paced, highly networked environment in which most organizations operate today, teams accomplish much of the work that gets done. In this course, students learn about the make-up of teams: characteristics, structures, culture and dynamics. They consider the role and function of individuals on a team, as well as the contribution teams make in the larger organizational context. A major focus is on the formation and development of teams and on leadership processes that enable high-performing teams. A core feature of this course is experiential learning: students participate on a number of student teams and reflect on and learn from their experience in light of current theoretical and applied perspectives on teaming.
MLLS 705 - Strategic Leadership
Organizational leaders want to have maximum impact using the limited talents, resources and opportunities they have. Yet the world is becoming more complex, the pace of change is increasing, and it is harder to anticipate what the future will be like. The challenge for leaders is to leverage core organizational competencies to gain strategic advantage in an uncertain and ever-changing environment. This course explores strategic thinking and planning as key leader skills and culminates in the creation of an actual strategic plan. Students also learn how organizations can cultivate leadership at multiple levels and become more effective in generating and executing strategy.
MLLS 706 - Leading by Design
Is leadership an art, a science or an integration of the two? This course explores design, seen as a blend of creativity and engineering, and treats design as a rich metaphor for the work leaders actually do. As product designers transform the physical world, leaders serve as architects in a social world, designing and realizing preferred futures. In this course students practice leadership as design and complete multiple mini-design projects. Focusing on key design elements (such as context and environment, design intention, stakeholder interests, collaboration, verbal and graphic communication, the creative process and design patterns), students come to understand organizational leadership as a continual process of intentional co-design and re-design. (Recommended for second-year graduate students.)
MLLS 707 - Leading and Coaching Across Generations
As older workers retire and younger workers enter the workforce, organizations and society are being impacted by major demographic shifts. The implications for leaders and managers are both subtle and profound. Whether young or old, leaders need to understand age as a unique form of diversity that presents special challenges and offers exciting opportunities. Students not only learn about specific aspects of this diversity in today's workforce (e.g., how culture and values, facility with technology, approaches to collaboration, expectations for feedback and mentoring, and leadership styles differ by age group), but consider and develop strategies for effectively managing and leading people belonging to other generations.
MLLS 709 - Leading Mindfully: The Practice of Managing Oneself
Being mindful means paying attention, on purpose and non-judgmentally, to the present moment. A primary premise of this course is that the practice of mindfulness is foundational to the successful practice of leadership. Leading mindfully enables leaders to see more clearly, listen more deeply and respond more effectively through reduced stress, enhanced concentration and creativity, and improved resilience. Leaders who cultivate mindfulness create and sustain work environments which meet followers' four basic needs: trust, compassion, stability and hope. In this course, students gain an experiential understanding of mindfulness through rigorous training in numerous meditation techniques. Students also gain conceptual knowledge about mindfulness through study of the psychology and neuroscience of mindfulness. Finally, students integrate their experiential and conceptual learning through the application of mindfulness to important tasks of leadership.
MLLS 712 - Decision Making and Problem Solving for Leaders
A study of the theories of decision making is combined with case studies that illuminate the techniques and tactics of effective problem solving, with a focus on the role that leaders play in achieving desired results. Special emphasis is placed on effective team building through empowering team members to make decisions and solve problems.
MLLS 713 - Leadership for Turbulent Times
This course examines theories and concepts of organizational leadership as seen through the lens of the so-called "New Sciences": relativity, quantum theory, chaos, complexity and fuzzy set theory. The course focuses on leading change in rapidly evolving organizational environments so characteristic of today's corporate world. Students develop a functional working knowledge of how to operate as a leader in a climate where stability is rare and change, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity are frequently the only constants. Students also examine models for leading and managing change and learn how to leverage collaborative organizational structures through teamwork. They discuss such topics as: virtual leadership and management, participative management, leadership in highly matrixed organizations, boundary-less organizations, empowerment, partnering relationships and alliances, and information networks.
MLLS 718 - Legal Issues for Leaders
This course teaches future leaders how the law impacts the decisions they make and how they may be able to use the law to further their objectives. It examines the relationship between the branches of government, the rights of individuals versus the state, the role of the courts, and the economic and other conflicts between organizations and individuals. Taught by leading attorneys, the course covers matters of current interest, such as sexual harassment in the workplace and lawsuits against gun manufacturers as well as how current issues of public policy in the law arise out of precedents and theory established throughout the history of the country. The attorneys rely extensively on actual cases that have been decided, as well as selected commentary on the law.
MLLS 719 - Leadership in the Virtual Workplace
With the digital age upon us, Leadership in the Virtual Workplace explores how the changes in the workplace (telecommuting, virtual teams, instant access, etc.) affect the ways we need to lead within organizations. Will current leadership models work in the new workplace? What will it take to lead effectively in the future? This course examines future trends, the impact of the Internet (including email), policy issues and leadership in the virtual organization. As a result of participating in this course, students understand the key leadership issues, different ways of leading in the new workplace and how one leads in a virtual organization.
MLLS 722 - Conflicts in Organizations
Building on knowledge and personal skills students gained in Conflict Resolution, this course considers conflict from an organizational perspective. Questions addressed include: What are the costs to employers of failing to address workplace conflict? What are ethical and legal frameworks within which conflict must be handled? What ways have organizations found effective for systematically resolving and preventing conflict? Other advanced topics in conflict resolution may include: violence in the workplace; interdepartmental, intergenerational, and inter-ethnic conflicts; ethical considerations in resolving conflict; and the growing practice of alternate dispute resolution (ADR). (Prerequisite: MLLS 714, Conflict Resolution)
MLLS 727 - Leading Organizational Change
Many view the primary role of a leader as leading organizational change. In this course, students demonstrate an understanding of the human experience of change and identify the likely impacts on people of various approaches to leading planned change and articulate relative advantages and disadvantages of different approaches to change. In this course, students learn to meaningfully discuss basic concepts of change agency (e.g., leadership, diffusion of innovation, participatory leadership strategy execution, etc.) in the broader context of organizational theory (e.g., structure, function, culture, power, goal attainment, life-cycles, etc.). Further, they are able to analyze current practices in leading organizational change (e.g., Business Processing Re-engineering , restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, implementation of 'lean' processes, and/or the practice of large-scale technical implementations such as Customer Relationship Management/Enterprise Resource Planning), identify critical success factors for effective change implementation, and evaluate relative merits of such approaches.
MLLS 734 - Human and Financial Resources
Resources are the lifeblood of an organization. This course explores the importance of human and financial resources within the culture of organizations and the interdependence between the two. The course draws on current literature and student experience to explore resource management and focuses on the effective and efficient use of human resources within the boundaries defined by financial realities.
MLLS 738 - Leadership for Innovation
The ability to innovate and adapt in a world of constant change is key to any nation's thriving and competitive advantage in the twenty-first century global marketplace. Moreover, innovation is essential in all sectors: private, public, nonprofit, education and military. Evidence suggests that leadership is a key factor in enabling people to innovate. This course deepens student understanding of how both effective leadership and management are required to conceive and realize innovations of many types, including new products, work processes, technologies and social relationships.
MLLS 743 - Creating and Maintaining a Healthy Organization
What is organizational health? This course looks at the role that leaders play in creating and sustaining positive workplaces that promote human flourishing. Students begin by considering basic issues in worker safety and conflict prevention then move to the cultivation of employee civility, employee engagement and pro-social behavior. Additional topics may include: valuing diversity and nurturing community, humane personnel practices, organizational justice, servant leadership and spirituality in the workplace.

Learning More
This section of the website will provide an overview of Bipolar disorder. Since Bipolar disorder is diagnostically broken down into four discrete categories, the following will focus on a single sub-category, Bipolar NOS (Not Otherwise Specified), outlining the basic information that is pertinent to this specific classification. Discussion will include a general summary of Bipolar disorder, followed by a brief overview of the diagnostic criteria for Bipolar NOS, its symptoms, and finally treatment methods.
Bipolar Disorder – Learning about the Condition
Bipolar disorder, formally referred to as manic–depressive disorder, is a clinical diagnosis that describes a class of mood disorders that is distinguished by the presence of recurring episodes of atypically heightened energy levels. In addition to heightened energy levels, individuals also experience elevated levels of thinking and mood, frequently accompanied by episodes of intense depression.
The periods in which one experience heightened moods are referred to as bouts of mania, also known as hypomania. It is not uncommon between phases of depression and mania for individuals to experience relatively stable periods, during which their moods occur on a more normal spectrum. However, it is also common for individuals to experience rapid changes in their moods, an occurrence that is referred to as cycling. Frequently, during extreme manic phases, individuals also experience some form of psychosis, which manifests as delusions or hallucinations. This range of experiences is referred to as the manic spectrum.
What is Bipolar Disorder NOS?
Unlike Bipolar I, Bipolar II, or Cyclothymia, Bipolar NOS lacks the specific criteria necessary for a physician to employ when making a diagnosis. Instead, Bipolar NOS is regarded as an umbrella diagnosis, used by the physician when certain symptoms are present, but fail to lodge the condition within a set sub-group. The diagnosis is used to note that an individual experiences symptoms of Bipolar disorder, without falling into Bipolar I, II, or Cyclothymia. These symptoms include:
- Experiencing either hypomania by itself, or hypomania and depression, but the duration of the cycles does not designate themselves a diagnosis of Cyclothymia.
- Experiencing either mania alone, or mania followed by a depressive episode, where a diagnosis of schizophrenia has been made previously.
- Experiencing mania or hypomania without having experienced a bout of depression.
- Experiencing swings from mania to depression, where the duration of either is too short to qualify as a genuine episode.
- Any situation in which the appearance of Bipolar is symptomatically present, but the prescribing physician suspects that the cause is due to alcohol or drug use, or another medical condition.
It should be noted that the absence of diagnostic specifiers in no way lessens or diminishes the seriousness of the condition. Bipolar NOS is a legitimate class of mood disorder that requires treatment and is amenable to certain therapies. If left unchecked, Bipolar NOS can generate havoc in a person's life and undermine their ability to function.
Signs and Symptoms of Bipolar NOS
This section describes some of the common symptoms associated with the condition. If you would like to speak with a counselor to learn more about Bipolar disorders call 1 877 415 4673 now.
Symptoms of Bipolar NOS Include:
- Rapidly cycling between manic and depressive episodes.
- Experiencing hypomanic or manic episodes with no depressive episodes.
- Experiencing these symptoms when another disorder such as schizophrenia is present.
Treatment for Bipolar NOS
This section describes some of the common treatment methods for Bipolar Disorder NOS. If you would like to learn more about the dual diagnosis treatment approaches offered at the Authentic Recovery Center call us today.
- Data suggests that regiments of physical exercise can assist with regulating moods and fostering emotional stability.
- Employing various medications, which include ant-seizure medications such as Lamictal, and Depakote; and anti-psychotic medications such as Zyprexa, Risperdal, and Seroquel.
In conjunction with medications, psychotherapy is a vital component of treating Bipolar NOS. The most commonly used therapies include:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying negative beliefs and destructive patterns of thinking, and replacing them with healthy ones. The fundamental idea is that individuals unconsciously define themselves through faulty self-images and erroneous conclusions regarding their worth. The goal is to make the person aware of when and how they are undermining themselves or fulfilling a negative self-image that ultimately impairs them.
- Group Therapy, which provides social support and education through shared experiences.
- Social Rhythm Therapy (SRT), which focuses on assisting someone to create, and adhere to, a set schedule of work, play, and sleep. The central principle of SRT is that by keeping volatility that accompanies mood swings when, and if, they recur.
Treatment Goals
There are several treatment goals when attempting to successfully overcome the condition. Some of these are:
- Keeping the condition under consistent observation.
- Using structure to lessen functional disruption.
- Employing medications to prevent the recurrence of cycling moods.
- Providing support for family and loved ones through group therapy and education.
- Establishing routines for sleep and daily itineraries.
- Helping individuals to recognize the warning signs of an onset.
- Identifying stressors that contribute to mood cycling.
No two situations are exactly alike, and thus no two treatment plans will follow exactly the same course. This discussion has only touched on the common denominators common to both Bipolar NOS treatment and its symptoms. Take the time necessary to keep yourself informed about latest practices and current treatment options. Hopefully this article will assist giving you a foundation of knowledge that will make selecting the correct course of treatment easier to determine.

The tragically epic proportions of Superstorm Sandy remain fresh in the nation's memory — and its painful impacts are still being felt by many in the region. Congress is inching towards passing a disaster assistance package that can provide some measure of relief. That's welcome news for all those who suffered in Sandy's path — including the region's fishermen.
Last month we urged Congress to act during its lame duck session, to provide funding for fisheries disasters that have been officially declared — not only in states impacted by Sandy, but also certain fisheries in New England, Mississippi and Alaska where a formal disaster declaration has been made by the Secretary of Commerce.
With the Sandy disaster package being prepared, our friends in Congress stepped up and successfully included $150 million in funding to help those devastated by these disasters. In response, a number of media outlets and commentators have condemned such spending, labeling it as 'pork'.
Well. Let's be very clear about one thing: the fishermen and coastal communities who are struggling to survive in the face of these disasters desperately need our help. Fisheries disaster declarations are no arbitrary process: they are made in accordance with statute, specifically the Interjurisdictional Fisheries Act and the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. Among the many hoops that must be cleared to satisfy the National Marine Fisheries Service Disaster Assistance Policy, the causes of any claimed disaster must be beyond the control of fishery managers to mitigate through conservation and management measures. In other words, economic hardship precipitated by overfishing or other poor management practices are not grounds to make a claim.
Sure, let's have a debate about fiscal responsibility and the deficit. It's only proper that lawmakers and interest groups scrutinize government spending and debate the difficult tradeoffs that must be made between revenue and expenditure. But to target emergency funding for fishermen and coastal communities who through no fault of their own find their livelihoods jeopardized, and to characterize it as some kind of new "bridge to nowhere", is deeply insulting.
Just like Sandy's victims, these folks deserve our compassion, not contempt. We'll continue to work with our friends on Capitol Hill, and do everything possible to ensure they receive some measure of relief.

Really stupid I know, but why not live a little ?
No step yet
Really stupid I know, but why not live a little ?
Rachel on Jul 17, 2011
And lose? Does that not mean you get hit by the train. It kind of ruins the idea "live a little" lol
Lauren Smith on Jul 17, 2011
I believe (and don't hold me to this, I've never played before) that winning involves getting the train/car to stop. Losing means you lose your nerve and jump out of the way.
Rachel on Jul 18, 2011
ah right cool :)
Simon on Jul 18, 2011
Just to be safe you should give your bucketlist.org log in to a trusted friend so they can update us when you complete this

Awesome! She doesn't mean killing herself, just pushing re envelope. Sounds exciting!

I thought lose meant.. well... die. Some re-wording perhaps??
Albin M on Oct 21, 2011
no it makes sense guys :P
the game of "playing chicken" is about who chickens out first, or gives in.
Losing in this case is "giving in" to the train and getting out of the way :P
Mike Diamond on Oct 23, 2011
better put that down as last thing on the list just in case you lose lose :P
jennhv7 on May 17, 2012
Ok time for her to have a psych eval
Janaii Davis on Jul 30, 2013
Um... Isn't that like SUICIDE!? I guess that means you completed your bucket's list, eh?!
ZombieGirl on Jul 30, 2013
Who the hell flagged this for attention? Really whoever did get over yourself. Just because you don't like someone elses goal or think it's stupid doesn't mean you need to report it. So if she wants to do this let her do it....its not like she is forcing you to do it or making you add it onto your list.....fucking people these days
CanyonWild on Jul 30, 2013
Okay people, how about using google first before placing a comment? 'Chicken' is a game. It is about who gives up first. The one who gives up first is the chicken. For example: Two cars, they are coming straight towards each other. The car who turns away first to avoid the crash is the chicken, which means YOU LOSE. So if you play chicken with a train and want to lose, that means you step off the train track and not want to get it by the train. If you do get hit by the train, you won... So what ZombieGirl already said, the one who flagged this for attention needs to do a little research (which takes less than seconds) before flagging something.
Emil Classon on Aug 03, 2013
Very exciting and stupid idea!

In Photoshop CS6 for Photographers, author, photographer, and teacher Chris Orwig explores Photoshop from the perspective of the photographer.
The course details the features and techniques behind enhancing and retouching photos, preparing them for print and online publishing, and much more. Chris demonstrates how to make basic edits in Camera Raw, develop and save color profiles, work with layers and selections, tone and sharpen, and retouch images while retaining their natural character.
Chris also shares some creative tips and project ideas, such as converting a photo to black-and-white and enhancing a portrait with hand-painted masks. The course also covers workflow details, such as organizing images in Bridge and Mini Bridge, optimizing Photoshop preferences, and calibrating your monitor.
Now that we've worked on a lot of the small details in the photograph and we've cleaned those up, the next thing that I want to take a look at is how we can brighten the shadows that we can see under the eyes. There are number of different techniques that we can do in order to accomplish this. Let me show you one. We'll go ahead and click in our topmost layer, and than create a new layer by pressing Shift+Command+N on Mac or Shift+Ctrl+N on Windows and let's name this layer shadows. Next, we'll select the Clone Stamp tool by pressing the S key and with the Clone Stamp tool what I want to do is I want to change my overall layer Opacity.
Here we're going to go ahead and decrease this significantly. We want to bring this way down, say something even less than 20% there. Maybe about 18 might work well. We'll turn Aligned and Sample All layers on and then I want you to Option+Click or Alt+Click on a nice bright area. Next, here with the Soft Edge brush you want to make sure you don't have any hardness there. Go ahead and just start to clone in some of this. Let me close that Preset panel there. We're just going to start to slowly paint over this area. You want to Option+Click or Alt+Click, nice bright tones.
So you want to make sure you're choosing that, and you want to be really fluid with your brushstrokes. Because here what we're trying to do is essentially paint away some of these shadows that we're seeing. As you're working with these shadows, what you should ideally be seeing is that it's not really dramatic. It's not like some huge difference here. It's almost like you don't notice the difference until you actually look at the before and after. Because when it comes to people retouching, well, you want it to be subtle and smooth and most importantly, you want it to be believable. That's especially important when it comes to work that you're doing around the eyes, because you want someone to be drawn into the eyes.
So here basically what I'm doing is I'm Option+Clicking or Alt+Clicking, I'm painting on different areas. I'll go back to the other side here, work on a couple of other shadows I'm noticing, change my brush size, and again just try to diminish or decrease the shadows that I'm noticing that I think are detracting a little bit from this photograph. I'm looking just to take out anything that's not quite even, and now after having done that with the Clone Stamp tool, we of course want to evaluate our progress. To do so we can click on the eye icon to see that before and after, and really what this is about is just trying to bring in some light into those shadow areas.
Now after having done that, you may want to decrease the Opacity of this so that you still have a little bit of shape there. Here it looks like with this image perhaps down around 80% that looks pretty nice. So our overall retouching so far is this before and then now after. Another way that we can work with shadows under eyes is with the Patch tool. This is a technique that a lot of people like to use. So here I'm going to turn off the layer which we just created in order to show you another technique.
This other technique, it requires that we merge some layers together. In order to do that we have to learn a kind of a complicated shortcut. It's Shift+Option+Command+N+E on a Mac, Shift+Alt+Ctrl+N+E on Windows. What that will do is it will merge your underlying layers to the topmost layer and here I'm going to go ahead and name this shadows as well. Next, we can select our Patch tool and what the Patch tool we need to use this on Normal, because Content-Aware just won't work well with this type of a technique and then you want to go ahead and make a selection around the shadow area.
Now in doing this what we're looking to do is to try to brighten this up, and initially, it's just going to look kind of strange. Click-and-drag down, and it will then remove a lot of the content from this area. You can deselect and then you can start to see that. You may also want to do this multiple times in a few different ways to try to brighten up these shadows. Let's go ahead and work on this side as well. One of the things you may notice is that it maybe a little bit say, smudgy. Well, that's okay, because we're using this layer to try to diminish those shadows and what we'll do is drop our Opacity way down.
So it's almost like it's just barely softens them. Here you can see we have that kind of taking those shadows out and softening that area of the skin. So it's another technique. That's real common when it comes to retouching. Yet perhaps most importantly is that whether you're retouching a portrait or something else. You can use these different types of techniques to deal with blemishes, because sometimes what you want to do with blemishes is remove them altogether. Other times you may just want to soften them or scale them back as we've done with these different layers here, and we've done that as a way to try to improve the overall focus on the most important, say, part of our image, whatever that is.
Alright. Well, let's go ahead and zoom back in and look at one final glance of this one. Here we have that with our one technique. Here is our before and then now our after.

Friday, March 22, 2013
The man who was mistakenly released from a South Carolina prison Friday remained on the run late Saturday morning, according to Clark Newsome of the Department of Corrections.
Dwaine Johnson Jr., 19 was detained in prison as he awaits trial for two shootings that occurred in Georgetown in 2011.
Newsome said Johnson was being detained at the Georgetown County Detention Center but was moved to a prison after being charged with assault for allegedly throwing urine on a jail officer.
Johnson is accused of being involved in the shooting of the two owners of Szechuan Restaurant on Highmarket Street in Georgetown in August, 2011.
Georgetown Police Capt. Nelson Brown said the two victims of the shooting Kwok Daniel Chung and Rui Mei Dong were immediately notified of Johnson's release.
Robbery was believed to be the motive of the Szechuan Restaurant shooting. Brown, at the time of the arrest, said Johnson was the triggerman. One shot struck Chung in the chest area. He allegedly shot Dong in the back as she was trying to run out of the room where the robbery was taking place.
The trial date for that incident has not yet been set.
Newsome said he could not comment on the circumstances that led to Johnsons release because it is under investigation.
Officials say Johnson may be armed and dangerous.
Brown said local authorities and the state are working together to find Johnson. He said a reward is being offered for information leading to his arrest.
Anyone with information should call 911.

Video:How to Install a Wireless Keyboard and Mousewith Bulk Item
If you need to reduce clutter on your desk, a wireless keyboard and mouse is a great way to get rid of any additional wires. In this video, learn how to set up a mouse and keyboard.See Transcript
Transcript:How to Install a Wireless Keyboard and Mouse
A wireless keyboard and mouse can be a great way to reduce clutter around your computer desk. This video will show you how to set them up.
Find USB Port on Computer
Let's get started. As you open up the box, you'll notice that you should have a mouse, keyboard, instructions/warranty information, and a usb wireless receiver. The wireless receiver is what sends the keyboard and mouse signal from the computer itself. Since it's small and easy to lose, it's probably a good idea to go ahead and install it as soon as you take it out of the box. To do this, simply find an available usb port on your computer and plug it in.
Insert Batteries in Mouse and Keyboard
Now back to the mouse and keyboard. Since they are wireless, they don't receive power from the computer and therefore run on battery power. At this time you should insert the batteries into both the mouse and the keyboard. Some mouse and keyboard sets come with batteries already preinstalled. Make sure you check if yours does before leaving the store to insure that you have the batteries you need.
You may also want to consider investing in some rechargeable batteries, as one of the most common complaints with wireless keyboards and mouses is the short battery life. With the batteries installed, you can now move the mouse and keyboard into place in front of your computer. Once you have everything set up the way you like it, you'll need to push the connect button located on the bottom of both your mouse and keyboard.
How to Troubleshoot Mouse and Keyboard
Your mouse and keyboard should now be working. If not, double check to ensure the batteries are properly inserted and that they are both turned on. If they weren't, you may need to re-press the connect button (in fact, you'll probably need to do this every time you change the batteries).
If you are still having issues, check the surrounding area for possible sources of interference. These may include: wireless routers (WiFi), cordless phones, microwave ovens, metal surfaces, electronic devices, or of course a different wireless keyboard or mouse.
Most of these problems are fairly rare though, as usually this installation is a very straightforward process. For more information, check out computing.about.com.

Moadim l'Simcha! Dinner 4/1

Last night's dinner was the first non-festive meal (as in after services) since Monday night, but I wasn't in the mood to fuss so we went out to a kosher-style deli in town and picked and chose as close as we come to our level of keeping Pesach.
However, tonight I will go dairy, and make my matzah lasagna. I use my own home made pasta sauce and am trying the home made ricotta for the first time. I think I will skip experimenting with bechamel this time, as I am unsure if it will work with cake meal, but a layer of grilled veggies will go nicely.
Talk is closed, but that doesn't mean the conversations have to stop!

Teaser and preview images for final issue of 'Fantastic Four'
Marvel calls next month's Fantastic Four No. 588 "the FINAL issue of the long-standing series."

This is my first smooth top range. I love everything about this product! The various sizes of the burners and the warming burner make cooking large meals super easy! I purchased this product on Christmas Eve and just in time to cook my annual Christmas breakfast for the whole family. I didn't even have to read the manual to figure out how to use it. The knobs and buttons are clearly marked and very easy to use! I love having 3 racks in the oven! I put several things in the oven at once and used the convection and the biscuits cooked evenly, and everything else was perfect, too! The warming drawer is one of my favorite features. It is very roomy and holds 2, 13X9 pans, with room to spare. It keeps food at the perfect temperature and even has various temperature settings for the warming drawer, also. Not only does this range meet every need, it looks awesome, too! It has a large window for viewing the food in the oven, the shiny smooth top is easy to clean, and the large, curved door handles are easy to grasp. I would recommend this product to anyone! It's well worth the money!

I bought this unit Aug 2012. I absolutely hate the oven. The temp is not accurate at all whether I am using the convection or regular oven. Am I the only one whose temp is inaccurate? I have used an inside temp gauge to verify the temps are off. I know it is accurate. My old oven never wavered when set on 350 deg and I miss it. This unit cyles off and rarely cycles back on to maintain the temp. So when I do check it, I find the range if off by 30-40 degs lower than set temp. My internal thermometer confirms this. Sometimes when it's set at high temps like 425, its actually 475. It is NOT consistent and I hate it. Unfortunately I can't aford to buy another one or I would. The top burners work well and I like them but I just can't get over the oven temps. And I love to cook!

Love this oven! Why would you want SS?
By pwdubhudson
from Hudson, WI
Love this range. First convection oven we've owned. pre-heats more quickly, even temps--can bake cookies on two racks at the same time. Never could with our old oven. Easy to use, like the warming zone, and the control to adjust heat to size of pane.
Great Purchase!
By hpat2013

We bought this range about 6 months ago and has been working great. It heats up food quickly and and easy to keep clean.
Great features - Easy to Use
By Rhody
from Everett, WA, USA
I am extremely impressed by this range! Easy to use. Love the convection cooking - amazing results and a very quiet fan. My one regret is that I didn't buy this appliance sooner!
Great stove for the price
By CookingMomto3
from Richmond, Virginia
We have had the stove approximately 8 months and we couldn't be happier. Beautiful appearance, great cooking. Love the different size burners on the range and they heat up super fast and cool down even faster. The convection oven takes a little longer to heat up than the last stove I had, but it does cook a tad quicker. I have been satisfied with all the features. The warming drawer was used several times during the holidays when we had large family gatherings, nice feature to have. I highly recommend this stove.
By vicki63
from Georgia, USA
Have just had this range a few weeks, but burners heat up very quickly. Makes me realize how ineffective my old stove was! We opted for the convection for quicker cooking. Have only used it a couple of times for regular cooking, so have not had an opportunity to try a big roast or cake, but looking forward to that. Like the fact that there are knobs and not all push button.
Overall, very satisfied.
By DRMK
from Wilmington, NC, USA
Love the ceramic cook top and the steam clean feature. Oven seem so much bigger with the bottom element concealed. Wish the timer feature would use seconds, not just whole minutes.

Right out of the box I have a problem with the stove oven light. It will not turn off using the pad control switch. I must disconnect power to turn it off. Now I wonder if this unit will be reliable or not.

The Vampire Diaries
The Vampire Diaries' Charlie Bewley: I Did Not Call Elena a Slut — Exclusive
From playing a vampire in the Twilight franchise to a hunter on The Vampire Diaries, Charlie Bewley is familiar with the supernatural — and the series' rabid fan bases. In a recent interview, Charlie upset some TVD fans with comments about the center of the show's love triangle, Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev).
When Wetpaint Entertainment caught up with the actor, we had to ask about that little incident, as well as get some more info on Vaughn — such as what makes the Scot tick and who Charlie thinks he should hook up with. We're pretty sure he lived up to his goal of not saying anything that will get him fired!
Wetpaint Entertainment: So how did Vaughn end up being Scottish?
Charlie Bewley: I think it was a nod from Jose Molina who was the writer of the episode. He's a big fan of Craig Ferguson, and he said that it was a nod to him and where he comes from. So they told me this literally like three days before I was going out. I've done a Scottish accent before. I mean, everyone's got a stereotypical one, but I took the challenge on. It's interesting. It's always good to get out of your own voice. So I think it's a great way to commit to a character. So I just put the effort into it.
You put the effort in for those three days.
Right. (Laughs) The interesting thing with the Scottish accent is I could have gone all the way, but it would have needed subtitles because you wouldn't have been able to understand what I was saying. So I had to really enunciate the words which gave it a sort of, little bit more of a cosmopolitan Scottish accent, slightly more modern-day, easy-to-understand accent when really what I wanted to do was go full-on Trainspotting and really confuse the hell out of everyone. There's some places in Scotland and in England that you just cannot understand what people are saying. But even in ADR, they were like, "Okay. We need that crisper."
How much did you know about Vampire Diaries and the mythology?
Not really that much to be honest. I'm not a TV watcher. I'm not big on vampires. I have an affinity with them, but I never really plunge into TV. By the way, I've realized very, very quickly in this fandom, you say anything that might be slightly, slightly risqué, they're going to come down on you like a ton of bricks and take it out of context and put words in your mouth.
Like calling Elena a slut?
Those words never breached my lips. Never, ever once, did I say those words.
No, it was anyone who was offended by the fact that she was bouncing back and forth between two men.
Exactly. (Laughs)
You're part of the Twilight franchise as well. Aren't they equally rabid?
I've got to tell you. It was a huge, huge backlash from that comment, and I observed with much amusement and confusion. But I think that the Twilight [fans] are maybe a little bit more passive aggressive.
A character like Vaughn doesn't really fit into the grand scheme of things. How much did you really need to catch up on who's related to whom and how many times have they died?
Not really at all to be honest. I caught up on this season. I watched the 12 episodes before I got introduced, and it gave me a good understanding as to the pace of the whole thing and where I could fit in without being too much. And obviously, you don't want to go too small. It was all about pacing really, from an acting standpoint. It was like, what's the show about? What's the action like? What's the style of it? And how can I cause as much trouble as possible without getting fired?
So tell me about the character. What did you know, and what should we know about him?
Well, the character, aside from what's on the Vampire's wiki, I just tried to just have some fun with this guy really. With any character, I just try to relate him to myself and a lot of that is to sort of play things off and not be too serious and have fun with things — with the underlying stakes very, very clear still. So I think Vaughn is that. He's very powerful, I think, as a character. He's quite charming, with a degree of charisma, but he's clearly well trained. And I think when you get to a certain point in your training it becomes so ingrained and subconscious, that you actually can be very creative with it and natural and charming with that underlying threat of danger. So, yeah, I'm after the cure, I'm not sure why. Oh, I know why I'm getting the cure. Because I'm a hunter, and it's my job. I have the map, and that is it. I have to fulfill the mission.
I think that's what the German soldiers said during the second World War?
Right. But the German soldiers didn't have tattoos. I had a calling and obviously, I had a rough upbringing. Everyone was dying around me. And I became very passionate in the wilderness, and then these tattoos started growing on me and obviously chose me because I'm so hard and badass. And I just followed it. I followed it and found out what it was all about.
How long is this arc that we speak of?
I don't know. I would not object at all to going back. I think there's a lot to discover with this guy. I would like to work with the rest of the cast, specifically Joseph [Morgan], because I think we're two very similar actors. I think he's done great with that role. I mean, to turn up as a guest star and then suddenly, just manipulate the whole theory into a spin-off is just credence to him. He's really done something clever with that character, and it's paid off.
Who would be a good person for Vaughn to hook up with?
Anyone really, because I think there's no wrong answer here. But because Vaughn is there really to disrupt the apple cart as much as possible, I think Rebekah would probably be the lowest stakes hook-up there. Whether that be one that Vaughn would even entertain, I don't know. It would be more of a gratuitous hook-up or 'ship, apparently it's called. And I think I probably have to go for the ultimate prize and just tear the triangle up.
And then please tweet about it.
It's hilarious what you can say, and the ripples just reverberate around the kingdom. And everybody gets so angry.
These were obviously Steven R. McQueen's last episodes on the show. Was there a strange dynamic on set?
I don't know really because I have no real frame of reference on that. I think that ultimately everyone realizes that on a supernatural show, all things are possible. So therefore, nothing is finished. So that really is like the idea that I got. And when it came to talk of more episodes, they're like, "No one can be killed off."
Did you have fun with Ian?
Yeah, Ian's awesome. Ian's the ringleader of the whole thing. He's the glue that binds everyone, really. I thought he was going to be this reserved, too cool for school kind of guy, but honestly, he is brilliant, for a star. And he is very giving, a real motor mouth and just has a story to trump everyone's story, which he should have. To have the life that he's had. I'm all about life experience, and when I hear people who've just gone out and done stuff, I really tip my hat off to them.

Missouri Ban of Synthetic Marijuana -- K2 -- Could Come Soon
Categories: Politics, Puff, Puff, Pass
|Don't worry, dude. There still may be a way to get a quasi-legal high despite a statewide ban.
Now legislators plan to reconcile "minor differences" in the two bills before sending final legislation to Gov. Jay Nixon, reports the Post-Dispatch this morning. The ban carries an "emergency clause" that would outlaw products such as K2 once the governor signs final bill into law.
But will this ban really stop people from achieving a (quasi-) legal high? Not necessarily as St. Charles has recently found out...
There a bait store (yes, bait store) and a head shop (more predictable) have begun selling other brands of fake marijuana that don't have the chemical makeup of K2 and other brands targeted by the impending Missouri ban.
One of those products is called Sky Tsunami.

Mr. Cinnante joins Virginia Opera with the assignment of expanding the Education Program, both increasing its impact and outreach, and shaping the touring arm to ensure a broader visibility and understanding of the art form.
April 29, 2015 - The Virginia Opera took a gamble by staging its landmark production of Stephen Sondheim's musical theater blockbuster Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street as the opening show for its 40th anniversary season, which began last fall. Happily, the gamble paid off--big time.
By John Shulson
Verdi's "La Traviata" ranks among the top 10 most done and seen operas in the repertoire. Based on "The Lady of the Camellias" by Alexandre Dumas, "Traviata" is the typical tale of the power and pain of love. Violetta is the high society courtesan who enjoys attention but fears giving up freedom, ultimately having it both ways, but not without emotional and physical turmoil and, of course, a last minute surge of hope before death.
