Norah Jones Gets Revenge in "Miriam" Video
August 2, 2012 2:40 PM
Don't do Norah Jones wrong, or you'll certainly regret it.
When we last left Norah she was trying to forget a cheating lover in "Happy Pills." Now in her latest video for "Miriam," Norah is making his mistress pay.
Going back to the scene of the crime–a forest with a very deep lake–the usually levelheaded Ms. Jones tries to pull of the perfect murder.
As Norah croons, "takes a lot to make me go this mad," we get the gist of just how bad this Miriam lady was.
You might be surprised by the twist at the end of the clip.
Watch the second video off her latest album, Little Broken Hearts, to find out just what Norah is capable of.

Title: Problems with non-native windmill palm in Eden NY
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I have a potted windmill palm, about two weeks after being potted the leaves are turning yellow with brown spots on them. what have I done wrong?
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is dedicated to the care and propagation of plants native not only to North America but to the areas in which the plant is being grown. In this Floridata website, Trachycarpus fortunei you will see that it is native to China, and therefore out of our range of expertise. It is said to be the most cold-hardy palm available, hardy from USDA 7b to 10. Erie County is in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 5a (average annual minimum temperature -20 to -10 deg. F) to Zone 6b (-5 to 0 deg F), so that might be the first clue to the problem. Beyond that, and the Floridata site above, we will refer you to this USDA Forest Service site on Trachycarpus fortunei.

He even invited ME to a few matches, after we got to know each other a little better. THAT's how nice of a guy Edd was, and that's how I choose to remember him!
Thank You, Edd.
may he, may Edd Gould, find eternal peace wherever he is now
That was touching. Well done! Today, and for days to come, we should all raise a can of coke in tribute to Edd.
Rest in peace, Edd :'( We will all miss you.

Leading Kiwi golfers are hopeful the New Zealand Open's more casual pro-am format will help take the pressure off breaking an 11-year winless drought.
Mahal Pearce became the 21st and last New Zealand winner of the tournament back in 2003 and each year without a Kiwi winner, the pressure builds.
The professionals this year play alongside amateurs who have paid to play and it's hoped that will keep the fun factor up and the pressure down.
There is also a change of location from Christchurch to Arrowtown where the players play on both The Hills and Millbrook resort courses.
The Hills was the home of the New Zealand PGA Championship where Kiwi No 1 and world No 214 Michael Hendry won in both 2012 and 2013 - another confidence booster for the locals.
And although the title of New Zealand Open champion is up for grabs, the recent NZ PGA tournament at The Hills means there's a feel of familiarity around.
This is the first national open to play under the format made famous by the European Tour's Alfred Dunhill Links played across three courses, including St Andrews in Scotland and the PGA Tour's Pebble Beach pro-am in California.
"I like it. I've played the Dunhill links a couple of times in Scotland. It's always a good fun event and it's good to have the amateurs around to lighten the mood a bit," said Josh Geary, who has been the top Kiwi at four of the last five New Zealand Opens.
Mark Brown wasn't so convinced a tournament of the New Zealand Open's importance and history should be played under the format, though he did enjoy it.
"I love the event. The NZ PGA was a real boutique, unique tournament," he said. "Combining with the open, I'm neutral towards it. Whatever it takes to get a tournament across the line commercially, and the fact is we're playing for more prizemoney now and it's a bigger tournament. For that I'm grateful.
"For your national open, preferably not, but that's what it takes and we do so much of it now I actually really enjoy the format."
He said any worries players had about the format would be shelved on the course.
"You're still playing for the national title."
Ryan Fox also enjoyed playing alongside amateurs, but he has the added advantage of familiarity; he's playing with the same partner he's had for both NZ PGA events at The Hills.
"It makes it a bit more relaxed and fun. It might make it a bit slower but we've all played enough pro-ams to deal with that.
"It still feels like PGA which we enjoyed, but having the New Zealand Open tag to it just makes it more prestigious."
Playing alongside everyday hackers doesn't always make things easier for the pros, though, as 2001 New Zealand Open champion David Smail, one of eight previous winners in the field, found out at the Dunhill Links.
"I played with a guy and decided he liked the way I marked my ball after the first day so he came out the next day with exactly the same mark as I had," he said.
"We hit it down the 10th hole at St Andrews - he was down the left and I was down the right, but it was an undulating fairway and the balls crossed. I ended up hitting his ball and he hit mine. I learnt from that," he added, smiling.
Chances are he might not be smiling if it happens again this week, but all the Kiwi golfers will be smiling if it's one of them with their name on the Brodie Breeze trophy come Sunday night.
Australians are dominating world golf at the moment. Adam Scott is the world No 2, Jason Day just won the WGC Accenture Matchplay and there are 12 Aussies in the top 200. None of them are at the New Zealand Open, but here's a look at the more interesting of our neighbours on show.
RHEIN GIBSON (Victoria)
World No 511
Gibson has a spot in the Guinness Book of Records for shooting the lowest round by a professional golfer - a 16-under par 55 - at Oklahoma's River Oaks Golf Club in 2012. He'd rather not only be known for that and he can play; Gibson is off to the Open Championship this year after qualifying courtesy of his fourth equal at last year's Australian Open.
KURT BARNES (New South Wales)
World No 429
Barnes is a country boy from Muswellbrook, NSW and the 2003 New Zealand Amateur Stroke Play Championship winner. Last year in a search to keep his Japan Tour card he missed most of the Tour of Australasia. So he's now relying on tournament invites to get a start and if he wants to play in Australia's big three tournaments, he's going to need to win.
MICHAEL SIM (Western Australia)
World No 1505
This former world No 1 amateur is a seriously good golfer who earned a spot on the PGA Tour only to lose it through injury. He's played in five majors including the 2009 US Open when he finished tied for 18th and played the final round with Tiger Woods.
DANIEL POPOVIC (Victoria)
World No 546
Went wire to wire to win the 2012 Australasian PGA Championship by four shots and upset a number of more fancied and very talented golfers including Geoff Ogilvy who went on to become his mentor. He's good mates with Ricky Ponting who caddied for him at the Victorian Open. He struggled with form last year, but is fighting fit after training with the North Melbourne AFL team.
JACK WILSON (Victoria)
World No 389
Qualified as a teaching professional and picked up a couple of starts through that only to win the Western Australian PGA tournament last year - becoming the first professional to do so. That qualified him into a number of bigger tournaments and he went on to finish third at last year's Australian PGA behind Adam Scott and Rickie Fowler. Scott then said Wilson could go on to be one of Australia's best.
BRYDEN MACPHERSON (Victoria)
World No 506
Like Gibson, Macpherson has qualified for the Open Championship. It will be his second bid for Claret Jug after playing in that and the Masters as an amateur after he won the British Amateur. Represented Australia in the 2010 Eisenhower Trophy and the year before won both the Australian and New Zealand amateur stroke play events.

A Biosocial Explanation for Running from Police
Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man from Baltimore, made eye contact with a police officer and, at that moment, decided to run.

Walter Scott, an older man from South Carolina, also ran from police officers after a traffic stop. He had a warrant out for his arrest, which might partly explain his fleeing the scene.

New Film BlackFish Causes SeaWorld Stocks to Sink
The documentary centered on SeaWorlds inhumane animal treatment may be the cause of its stocks sudden drop in value.
SeaWorld has experienced a plunge in profits, and the recent downturn in sales may be attributed to the release of 2013's BlackFish, a documentary that exposes the animal suffering behind the theme park's friendly facade. According to MarketWatch, SeaWorld's stocks are down 25 percent from earlier this year, while the Orlando Sentinel reports that the chairman of the amusement park sold $1.3 million of his own company's stocks last week. SeaWorld blamed its bad fortune on the weather, but the risk factors outlined in its public offerings registration seem to forebode what is happening now: "An accident or an injury at any of our theme parks ... that receives media attention, is the topic of a book, film, documentary … may harm our brands or reputation, cause a loss of consumer confidence in the Company, reduce attendance at our theme parks and negatively impact our results of operations," states the company.

Multiple factors—including a call to boycott from One Direction's Harry Styles—is causing the demise of the aquatic park.

It was the end of an era yesterday as longtime Devils goalie Martin Brodeur officially announced his retirement. Brodeur spent 21 seasons in New Jersey. He won three Stanley Cups, four Vezina trophies, and five Jennings trophies. He is the all time NHL leader in wins and shutouts. He will assume a role as a special assistant to Blues general manager Doug Armstrong.

As the final horn sounded on Thursday night, the scoreboard showed a 5-2 Flyers victory over the Winnipeg Jets. It marked one of the Flyers more impressive games of the season.
In December, the Flyers showed character with a win over the Jets by rallying for two goals in the third and scoring the game-winning goal 10 seconds into overtime. This time, the Flyers controlled the game against a team that had won five of their last six games.
And they used some very unlikely heroes to do so.

Experienced Corona Mobile Game and App Programmer with Benefits
United States - Portfolio: 7
Hello! I'm an experienced and published mobile app and game developer. I've primarily used the Corona SDK for my cross platform game development. I've worked extensively on: * Box2D physics * Many of the Corona plugins (analytics, Facebook, all Ad platforms, etc.) * Cloud services (AppWave and App42, etc.) * Real-time multiplayer * In-app Purchasing * Push notifications * Advertising monetization (video, banner, interstitial, incentive) * Data storage (SQLite, JSON, cloud) Aside from coding, I also do quite a bit of drawing for basic graphic assets. I've done 100% of the assets for each of my games. I wouldn't call my design abilities a core strength rather a supporting ability where I can draw UI controls, basic sprites, etc. without the need for an artist. I'm available full time or as needed starting any time. No preference for team size or project stage. I work well with small or large teams and don't mind jumping into an existing codebase or starting from scratch. As for the **benefits**, I also have an existing codebase for general services that I don't mind reusing (with no licensing attached). Services include: * Complete In-App purchasing store * Real-time multiplayer framework * Push notifications and deep linking * Cloud based promotional services * Progression features including player profiles, leveling, perks and rewards, etc. * Facebook Login integration * Analytics Prior to the recent time I've spent developing games, I worked as a lead engineer in the mobile telecom world for over 12 years as a server side enterprise Java developer and SDK/tools developer. **Portfolio** I have 15 games published on the Google Play store, and 15 on the App Store as well. These games were all solo projects. I've done all design, development, and publishing.

Succulent Garden
I went to the grocery store to get some cereal and saw a pot of tiny succulents and I already have two teeny weeny succulents but the ones in the store were super cute so I took them in my cart but it was impulsive and I ended up leaving them there and I almost cried because I felt like I was abandoning them and I'm in a really strange place right now emotionally because of a pot of tiny plants. I hope they're ok.
Honestly I just couldn't deal with how beautiful it was at this train station, I wanted to take so many photos but we had to leave.

I was brought into this project somewhat late in the game; originally slated to be a dress fitting, the creative director decided to ask me to be a part of the project and shoot film for the day. In doing so, I was able to direct, choreograph, film and edit this wonderful piece. Thanks to having an amazing team on the project, I was able to create something that I hope captures the essence of the pieces and the emotions that they inspire.

Does anybody really think we can change big government without talking about the human attitudes and values that produced it?
Here's an excerpt from a letter I received the other day from a college professor:
"Throughout this election I discussed with students the differences between ideologies. The majority of them are on federal financial aid. They are fine with more taxes as long as they will be taken care of. It is disturbing to hear that they are willing to spend their own money on tattoos and cellphones but cannot buy the book for class until the financial aid comes in."
For those who see social conservatism as an annoyance and argue that Republicans must purge this agenda from their party to survive, I say: "Think again."
If Republicans want revival, we need an honest focus on what's really wrong in America and what must be done to assure that a great nation will be standing for our grandchildren and great grandchildren.
This kind of thinking is different from polls and focus groups and clever schemes to manage media and voter turnout.
Leadership is about identifying the truth, believing it and telling it in a way that people can grasp. Then they will respond and follow.
The professor's letter provides a snapshot, a hint, of what America's most basic problem is today. It's a problem of character and values.
Having lectured on more than 180 college campuses over the last 20 years, I have seen exactly what the professor is talking about.
Of course, government is too big. But how did it get this way? Americans vote every two years. They voted every two years during the whole period over which government grew to its current unwieldy size.
With the majority of the country now on one kind of government program or another, does anybody really think we can change this without talking about the human attitudes and values that produced it?
Democrats have a much easier problem than Republicans. They are not trying to change America. The trends and attitudes that got the whole country on welfare, that produced the moral relativism that is destroying our families and character, is the platform of the Democratic Party.
Democratic politicians have just one job: Deny the patient is sick.
Republicans, if they are going to be a real opposition party, have a much tougher job.
With all the talk about this last election being driven by demographics and turnout, the most basic point is the party and its candidate did not step up as a serious, principled opposition party.
We can't save Medicare and Social Security. They are bankrupt. Did we hear this from the Republican candidate? We heard wishy-washy words about reforming these systems so we can save them.
Did we hear anything about how our public schools -- controlled by unions whose agenda is growing their benefits and promoting moral relativism among our youth -- are destroying our children and our future? No.
When Ronald Reagan was first elected in November 1980, 18 percent of our babies were born to unwed mothers. Today 42 percent are. Anyone who thinks this is not a crisis of the first order can just as easily vote for a Democrat as a Republican.
Americans just re-elected a president who opposed the Supreme Court decision banning partial birth abortion. The leader of our nation thinks it should be legal in America to kill a live, fully formed infant. What does this say about America today and our future?
There may be Republicans who think that we can ignore the crisis in character and values that underlie our fiscal crisis. There may be Republicans that think if we have a better tax system it doesn't matter if we have a country of single mothers, sexually ambiguous and confused men, and abortion and euthanasia on demand.
Ignoring these things would mean not just the end of the Republican Party but also the end of our country.

Watch trailer: Brad Pitt movie on Ghana's OilSource: Daily Guide|Youtube
Date: 14-03-2014 Time: 06:03:24:am
Hollywood Superstar, Brad Pitt has produced a non-fictional documentary exposing what he terms "greed and exploitation" of Ghana and Nigeria by Texas-based oil exploration companies.
The documentary, which was written and directed by Rachel Boynton, an international filmmaker, takes viewers behind the scenes and gives them exclusive access to boardroom discussions as oil company officials show how much they are interested in making maximum profits from Ghana's newly discovered crude oil resources at the expense of Ghanaians.
The documentary titled, 'Big Men' shows the grand schemes inspired by Wall-Street investors to fleece Ghanaians.
The 99-minute documentary, which will be given a global exposure, would be released today in New York City at the IFC Center.
According to online movie review website, movievbox.net, the documentary, which is currently receiving media raves, "follows the step-by- step process of how they (the multinational oil companies) conduct business after untapped oil fields are discovered off the coast of Ghana. It took Rachel Boynton seven years to painstakingly track these big players unawares to complete 'Big Men' which has been described as a thriller.
In an interview with movie reviewer, Dorri Olds on March 10,2014, Rahel Boynton stated, "The film is of a deep philosophical nature. It* s about greed and desperation and wanting to be big. That's what connects everybody in the movie. When I was asking the questions it got turned around on me at one point when I was asked, "Don't you want to be big?"
He explained why his company won a hugely favorable deal with the government of Ghana around 2007.

The CEO justified why his company should see greater rewards than the industry standard, as they benefitted from the political administration at the time. The deal with Ghana was that the company would keep a vast percentage of the oil revenue being drilled out of the Jubilee oil fields, 64 nautical miles off the coast of Ghana.
Over 70 percent of the total revenue is shared by the foreign companies. They justify the huge cut by arguing that they had taken all the risk.
"What did the Ghanaians know?" asked David D'Arcy, an internationally known film critic and art reviewer, writing for The National and Screen International online, The Art Newspaper, among others.
"Ghana (which we don't see by way of the landscape, as we do Nigeria) presents a sad dilemma...Now Ghanaians are watching as an American company gets rich on its resources. Will Ghana become a mini-Nigeria, or will it prosper as a result? There's not much hope for any country that lacks the institutions to make prosperity possible."
The documentary also showed the difficulties faced by the company when the John Agyekum- led administration finished its term and the administration was taken over by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) led by the now late John Evans Atta Mills.
"The previous government (the NPP government) was nice to the oil company. Certain things will have to change," the former Minister of Energy Dr. Joe Oteng Agyei was heard saying in the documentary.
Ghana is currently drilling about 100,000 barrels of crude oil off the Jubilee Fields and barely earns US$1 billion from its oil export annually.

One of the best gifts I ever got from my mom....1963.....I made a deal with Mom to be good and to help her clean the house. I helped her clean our house for what seemed like forever but in reality was about two weeks. I do not know how she got it for me but she got it for me. She purchased my race track from the JC Penneys, downtown on Main Street, Houston. Thanks Mom, RIP.

Trolls- Mine had hot pink hair
Troll dolls, originally known as Leprocauns and also known as Dam dolls, Wishniks, Treasure Trolls, and Norfins, became one of America's biggest toy fads beginning in the autumn of 1963, and lasting through 1965. With their brightly colored hair and cute faces, they were featured in both Life magazine and Time magazine in articles which commented on the good luck they would bring to their owners (I still have mine, it has Orange Hair )
These sometimes creepy little troll dolls became widely popular around the early 1960's in the United States. My favorites had the little stone in the middle. #doll #1960s #toy

"Amazing location right on a beautiful sandy beach. We watched the sunrise every morning from the spacious lanai. Always a cooling breeze, never a need for AC. Loved that! It was a fully stocked condo with ALL amends including laundry and ceiling fans, dishwasher, coffee maker, towels, snorkelling equipment, parking spot, cable, long distance and wifi. Unbelievably quite and clean ++++ Walking distance to restaurants, a five mile, uninhabited, sandy beach Central to all points on Maui, super easy to find and only 20 minutes drive from the airport. The owner, Ron, is AWESOME! Always answered his phone and answered any questions we had. Great guy to deal with from day one. Made our stay in Maui easy and enjoyable.

"We just stayed at this very lovely condo for a couple of days while we were working. The place was very clean and comfortable. Fully stocked for a stay after a busy work day. We would stay there again for sure."Guest: Sandy W. Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: June 13, 2015View listing
"We stayed in this unit for the first week of our two week Maui holiday. I loved that the condo complex was right on the beach, which made for nice sunset walks, turtle and whale watching, plus some nifty snorkelling when the waves aren't too rough. The area is one of the quieter neighbourhoods; No big resorts or clubs are nearby to cause noise or traffic, and the public park right beside the unit was quiet as well. Being centrally located in Maalaea is handy for those who want to explore; you can head west to Lahaina for shopping/museums, take the road to Hana, drive up to Haleakala, or head south to La Perouse Bay. Close by the condo, within walking distance, is the Maalaea harbour, which features the Maui Ocean center, and where several snorkelling, whale watching and fishing tours depart daily. A short drive north will take you to the Maui Tropical plantation/zip line, Iao Valley, or into Kahului/Wailuku for grocery shopping. The condo is well appointed, with pretty much every kitchen item you'll need. The fridge freezer has a built in icemaker, which saves having to buy bagged ice. The main floor closet has beach items like an umbrella and boogie boards, and portable coolers for going on adventures around the island. We also found hand soap, shampoo, and a hair dryer in the bathrooms, which not all condos provide. I love the tropical décor, and the unit was just a nice size for us four travelling as two couples. The bedroom upstairs has its own bath, which is convenient and gave more privacy. About the only nitpicks/traveller's warnings I can think of are rather minor: - the kitchen is so well stocked, that there is limited dry goods storage. You may have to do some creative shuffling if you don't want to leave stuff on the counter tops. - as it's centrally located, the airport flyways can be directly overhead depending on the wind direction - there WILL be ants. This is a tropical island, so this is unavoidable. (other than a penthouse condo, I've found them in ALL my tropical accommodations.) Keep all your open goods in the fridge and make sure to IMMEDIATELY clean up anything you drop/spill. ***A special shout out goes to our property owner and manager; Lynn was very accommodating with our booking arrangements, and Cindy made special provision for our group's chemical sensitivities, going so far as to purchase/launder the linens in the detergent I use at home. Thank you for your help, ladies, and we hope to return to Maui someday soon!"Guest: Snnagfashtalli Date of Stay: March 2015 Review Submitted: March 22, 2015View listing

Egypt: A dark day for press freedom #FreeAJStaff
14 Nov 2013 15:18 GMT | Environment, Humanitarian crises, Asia Pacific, Philippines
Aid and supplies have begun to arrive in the Philippinnes devastated Tacloban as the airport opened, giving a boost to relief efforts, but UN humanitarian chief Valerie Amos said distribution is still a challenge.
The first C-130 transport planes arrived at 3am on Thursday, six days after Typhoon Haiyan rampaged through the city, destroying almost everything in its path.
Emergency supplies of food, water and medical kits are ready to be delivered but they remain frustratingly out of survivors' reach.
The choice is to use the same truck either to distribute food or collect bodies.
Alfred Romualdez, Tacloban mayor
Much of the aid, and the staff needed to distribute it, has been stuck in Manila and the nearby airport of Cebu, a 45-minute flight away.
Philippine Special Forces on Wednesday night held back hundreds of people, many of whom had walked for hours to reach the airport and then waited for days with little or no food or water.
Amos admitted the UN had let people down because they had not been able to get aid to people more quickly.
She told Al Jazeera that the roads in the country had proved impassable because of debris over the past few days.
"We're also challenged when the supplies get there, because there is no fuel, there are very few trucks on the ground. So we need to find a way to get those good into Tacloban," she said.
Many petrol station owners whose businesses were spared have refused to reopen, leaving little fuel for trucks needed to move supplies and medical teams around the devastated areas nearly a week after the typhoon struck.
"There are still bodies on the road," said Alfred Romualdez, mayor of Tacloban. "It's scary. There is a request from a community to come and collect bodies, they say it's five or 10. When we get there it's 40."
"The choice is to use the same truck either to distribute food or collect bodies," he added, outlining a grim choice.
Power cut
Outside Taclaban, burials began for about 300 bodies in a mass grave on Thursday. A larger grave will be dug for 1,000, city administrator Tecson John Lim told the Reuters news agency. The city government remains paralysed, with just 70 workers compared to 2,500 normally, he said. Many were killed or injured, had lost family or were simply too overcome with grief to work.
The government was distributing 50,000 "food packs" containing 6kg of rice and canned goods each day, but that covers just three percent of the 1.73 million families affected by the typhoon.
Anger and frustration has been boiling over as essential supplies failed to reach many of those in need.
Widespread looting of rice stocks and other supplies broke out across hardest-hit Leyte province on Wednesday despite the deployment of soldiers to maintain law and order in the wake of the typhoon.
Jericho Petilla, Philippine energy secretary, has said it may take six weeks before the first typhoon-hit towns get power back.

Filipinos abroad have sought to trace relatives living in affected areas, and raise funds for their benefit.

Imagine sitting amid garden flowers and greenery high above Athens next summer sampling a tasty fare as the drama of human triumph and tragedy unfolds on the fields of athletic battle below. Imagine having the godlike power to see each athletic venue at will, experience the spectacle and relay the pageant to the entire world.
Well, hold the ambrosia and nectar, because this isn't Mount Olympus. It's the garden restaurant atop the new International Broadcast Center. No Zeus to be found anywhere, just the pantheon of broadcast gods who will deliver next summer's Olympics to an estimated 3.7 billion television viewers worldwide.
Work was recently completed on the 130,000-square-meter International Broadcast Center building where principal television rights holders, including NBC, Channel 7 and the Japan Consortium, will originate coverage of the games. Athens Olympic Broadcasting now has the responsibility of setting up the interior of the building to satisfy those rights holders.
The IBC building is far more than studios, editing bays, offices and parking. It will be the focal point of activity for about 10,000 producers, directors, editors, managers and volunteers from around the globe who are responsible for putting the games on the air. Perhaps the building's most striking feature is adjacent to the rooftop café –50,000 square meters of rooftop studios set amid a lush garden.
Athens Olympic Broadcasting, which is jointly owned by International Sports Broadcasting and the Athens Olympic Committee, will scout and establish 1,795 commentator positions and 2,580 observer spots. It also will provide some of the gear the expected 12,000 accredited broadcasters will need to do their jobs.
Athens Olympic Broadcasting will provide rights holders at the International Broadcast Center with about 3,500 hours of footage during the Olympics, which they will transmit to their home audiences via satellite and fiber optic cable.
