After watching Duquette's interview with The Sun, I think it's clear what he's going to do with the rotation.
He said he wants to keep the young pitchers in the minors until they are 100% ready. He stated that in past years the young pitchers have been forced to the majors, but that the depth this year is going to allow them to develop properly in the minors.
I believe regardless of what happens in Spring Training, Brian Matusz, Jake Arrieta, Chris Tillman, etc. are going to the minors.
Not that most weren't saying this already, but we're most likely looking at a rotation of Wada, Chen, Hammel, Hunter, Britton.
I do think we'll eventually see Wada and Hunter shifted to the bullpen if they struggle or if/when Matusz and Arrieta earn a promotion.

Midwest Living Review
How best to describe the extreme state of peaceful bliss you'll experience after a weekend at Sweetgrass Cove Guesthouse and Bodywork Studio? Innkeeper Rick Anderson tells of a sporty couple who recently visited with kayaks and mountain bikes strapped to their car. After experiencing the Sweetgrass trifecta -- a full-body therapeutic massage; a toasty sweat in an old-fashioned, wood-fired Finnish sauna; and a soak in a hot tub -- the couple settled into a relaxed state of torpor. "The bikes and kayaks became yard art," Rick said with a smile. Such is the Zen utopia Anderson has created in Sweetgrass Cove, a mind and body retreat that we would declare to be the most romantic spot in Minnesota.The guesthouse ($150 per night for two people) is just 25 yards from Lake Superior and offers prime viewing for bald eagles, loons, and the occasional otter fishing in the water. To truly get the most out of the experience, put on a terrycloth robe and go for the one-hour full-body therapeutic massage ($60 per session). Anderson says his massages go beyond the normal rub-down to facilitate healing, as he uses knowledge of the bodywork arts gleaned from travels through the Orient. Your next stop is the smoking, fired-up traditional Finnish sauna. Finally, it's time for a dip in a 104-degree hot tub, from which you can peer through the evergreen trees down to the rocky shore and watch waves rolling off the greatest of the Great Lakes. When you step out, your legs will be wobbly, your heart rate will be slowed, and you'll be transcendentally conscious of every breath that exits your lungs. Congratulations, you are at peace with the world.

Taylor SwiftCountry Singer
Born: 13 December 1989
Birthplace: Reading, Pennsylvania
Best known as:
The pop superstar who sang the 2009 hit "You Belong With Me"
Country singer Taylor Swift broke through in 2006 with her hit song "Tim McGraw," recorded when she was still 16 years old. A few years later she had become one of country music's most popular stars. Raised just outside of Reading, Pennsylvania, Taylor Swift began singing at local events when she was a kid, and even sang the national anthem at a Philadelphia 76ers basketball game when she was 11. To help Swift pursue her career in country music, her family moved near Nashville, Tennessee when she was 13. Her sparkling blonde beauty-pageant looks and pitch-perfect country vocal style made her a star on Country Music Television, and the video for "Tim McGraw" -- a wistful ballad of romantic longing ("When you think Tim McGraw / I hope you think of me") -- was voted a fan favorite. She released her self-titled debut album in late 2006 and quickly became a star singer and songwriter, nominated for a Grammy Award and by the Academy of Country Music as best new female vocalist. Before she was even 18 Swift was touring nationally with top stars such as Brad Paisley and Rascal Flatts, singing songs about love, heartbreak, and kisses in the rain. Her 2008 album Fearless produced the hit singles "Love Story" and "You Belong With Me." Her third studio album, Speak Now, was released in 2010 and included the singles "Mine," "Back to December" and "Sparks Fly." Her 2012 album Red included the hit single "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together."
Extra credit:
Taylor Swift was stunned by Kanye West at the MTV Music Video Awards on 13 September 2009. Swift was accepting her video for Best Female Video when Kanye grabbed the microphone and announced to the crowd, "I'm sorry, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!"

NicoleMassachusettsHairBlondeNormal HairFine or Thin HairLeaves My Hair Looking Wet And GreasyFolica was sold out of my typical shine spray (Straight Sexy Hair Smooth & Seal Shine spray!) so I decided to try this. I have to say I'm very unimpressed and really don't like it at all. I have naturally light blonde hair which is not "thin" but pretty fine. When I use even more than a half a spray of this stuff my hair looks wet and greasy! When I use my clipless curling iron and put nice waves or curls in my hair, it makes either 1) my waves 'seperate" into small sections rather than stay together as a nice body wave (SSH Smooth and Seal does NOT do that!) or 2) makes the top of my head look wet and straight and weighs the curl down (even though it advetises as a "weightless" formula!). I definitely would never purchase this again and plan to immediately go back to my Straight Sexy Hair Smooth and Seal!!! I'm sure it works fine for those with coarse or thick hair, DEFINITELY not for those with fine or blonde hair!1 out of 1 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Etiquette: Not polite to point especially at President
To Carrie Click of Click...On Etiquette, etiquette is not a quaint set of habits from long ago, it's a social and business tool for effective relationships.
Reporter: Craig Smith
TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - A lot of the uproar over the picture of the Governor pointing her finger at the President boils down to is that polite?
To some that's up to debate, to others it's up to etiquette---the rules of polite behavior that help us get through life with a minimum of friction and ruffled feathers.
Etiquette does not come naturally to a lot of people. That's why there are etiquette coaches.
Back in a more gracious, less in-your-face time, children learned good manners at their mother's knee and polite society put a lot of emphasis on being polite.
But etiquette is not dead or dusty history. Etiquette expert and coach Carrie Click says good etiquette builds respect.
KGUN9 reporter Craig Smith asked Ms. Click: "In the business world, in the social world, how is it taken when someone points a finger at someone; especially at close range?"
Carrie Click: "When you're doing it up closely and in someone's face it can come across as the other person is very angry at you and almost in a way, chiding you as you would do a child."
Carrie Click understands Presidential, even royal etiquette, she served in the George W. Bush White House, though not as an etiquette advisor. She says around Presidents, it is especially not polite to point.
Craig Smith asked her: "When you take it to the case of a President on the receiving end of this, where does that stand in the world of etiquette?"
Carrie Click: "It would be pretty bad. You definitely don't want to be pointing your finger at the President of the United States. Again, I do not know the context of the conversation or what was exactly happening between the two of them but , of course again, I'm talking about the American culture, because pointing in different cultures could mean something entirely different but here it would come across in a very negative viewpoint to everyone."
To Carrie Click, good etiquette is good business because it helps lower the walls and build a spirit of cooperation rudeness and confrontation destroys.

|Two Hurt, One Critically, in Boone Wreck
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 25 March 2013 20:15
A woman was rushed on an emergency transfer to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center last night after a crash with a Town of Boone snow plow on Blowing Rock Road, a crash that closed Blowing Rock Road for the rest of the evening. Boone Police say one person was pinned in the wreckage
of the SUV involved in the 7:30pm crash near the Meadowview Drive intersection, the wreck involving the white Mercury Mountaineer and the town truck being used as a road scraper. Boone Fire and Police were called along with Watauga Medics as one person was pinned in, and a second ambulance responded to deal with another person suffered an arm injury. First arriving emergency crews dealt with the more serious injury, said to involve impairment to the airway, which Boone officers on the scene were desperately trying to keep open as medics were en route. The State Patrol is investigating as a Town of Boone vehicle was involved, and that report is not yet available.

osforlife wrote:You said Mickey Mantle & Willie Mays had to be sent down to the minors. That is what our young pitchers should do. They shouldn't be given rotation spots because they have potential. They should have to earn their spots, like everybody else. All three pitchers were TERRIBLE LAST YEAR. Until they prove they can pitch effectively in the minors, they really should not be given a spot on a major league roster. None of them were good at AAA last year, who knows if they can even dominate AAA hitters? If they can't pitch great in AAA, how in the world are they supposed pitch GOOD against major league hitters. Chris Tillman, his future was all but lost. Fortunately, Rick Petersen worked with him and look at what Tillman did in the majors. Maybe Petersen can work his magic with them too. The majors is not a place to be experimenting & tweaking. The minors is, and all of them have to change something.

My observation of the "Risk" with these pitchers that are on the proverbial bubble is that several of them are at their last option year. With this being the last year to send them down for seasoning and development it is best IMO to do this early in the year after some spring training success/failure than later in the year after having failed at MLB Level.
Look at Jake Arrieta in 2012. He was by default the opening day starter. He struggled at times until it became obvious he needed help in early July. His replacement was in Norfolk applying his new found mechanics and was called back to the parent club. He performed almost flawlessly until season end. He is now considered on of four starters going forward. Now it would seem the short term training and presumed loss of Tillman now will enhance both the Orioles chances of winning this year and beyond whether by performance or by his overall value if needed as trade bait.
ofahn wrote:
Thank you. That was well considered and carefully explained.
Seaford, I can understand the desire for instant gratification, but in the middle Eighties I worked out at the same gym as Rich Dauer and he told me that when he asked Earl Weaver how he always seemed to know JUST what was going to happen in a big situation, Earl told him that when everyone else was playing CHECKERS, he was playing CHESS. In essence, the game wasn't won with the NEXT move, it was won by being ready with the BEST move when it was needed.
Osforlife eloquently explained that Matusz, Britton, and Arrieta have much higher ceilings than Steve Johnson and T J McFarland, BUT if those two guys can pitch well enough to earn a spot on the team out of ST the organization will benefit from at least two of the former Cavalry developing into reliable and effective SPs. They could contribute this year and be desirable trade bait at the deadline or this coming winter.
We have a real chance of having an extra THREE legitimate young SPs available this winter, and we'll be at the point where we may be ready to spend those chips on the last piece necessary to bring a championship back to Baltimore. IMO THAT'S worth a LOT more than three or four meaningless extra wins this year.

Springfield seeks citizens for walk-bike panel
SPRINGFIELD, Ore --- The City of Springfield is looking for five to nine Springfield residents to serve on a Pedestrian and Bicycle Advisory Committee.
The one-year "pilot" committee will meet four times during the course of the year and provide citizen input on needed pedestrian and bicycle facilities and programs.
David Reesor, Springfield's Senior Transportation Planner, said whether or not the project will be extended will depend on its end of the year evaluation.
"We do have a lot of people that still walk and bike to work, and it's viewed as a practical means of getting around," said Reesor.
Committee members should have an interest in promoting pedestrian and or bicycle interests in Springfield.
"It will help us everywhere from setting new policies, with or transportations system plan to letting us know what they think works and doesn't work when they are out walking with their kids or biking to work," said Reesor.
Applications are being accepted for the advisory committee up until June 24th. They are available in the City Manager's Office at 225 Fifth Street in Downtown Springfield.

Heart Healthy Multivitamin for Men
- Cardiologist formulated for heart health and total body wellness
- Replenishes nutrients depleted by heart medications and lifestyle
- Unique ingredients for men's heart and prostate health
Together with…Omega Q Plus
- Superior heart support
- Healthy blood pressure, cholesterol ratios, and triglyceride levels
- Age-defying antioxidant protection
- Astonishing energy for your cells, heart, and body
As a cardiologist, I've discovered that men and women have different nutrient needs.
That's why I formulated my Heart Healthy Multivitamin for Men with powerful heart supporting nutrients that men need each day, plus I developed this men's health supplement to work right alongside Omega Q Plus—my #1 formula for heart health.
Here's how…
My Heart Healthy Multivitamin for Men was developed specifically for the nutritional needs of men. I know great health starts with your heart and that you need to take extraordinary care of the engine that drives every other organ and system in your body. This breakthrough formula delivers powerful vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in the amounts, forms, and combinations proven by research to be the best for your heart and head-to-toe wellness.
I've also taken into account the fact that virtually every type of cardiovascular medicine—including statins, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, calcium channel blockers, diuretics, and vasodilators—depletes your body of numerous vitamins and minerals, like vitamins A, B12, D, and E, as well as calcium, magnesium and zinc, which you need for optimal heart health and wellness.
Common Cardiovascular Drugs Can Deplete Critical Nutrients in Your Body
Ironic, isn't it?
You take these medicines for your heart health, but they rob you of critical heart-healthy nutrients! That's why I've made sure my Heart Healthy Multivitamin for Men included replenishing amounts of these. And you can rest assured that this unique multi is 100% safe to take with your heart medicines, too.
But that's not all…
Targeted nutrient blends for men
Over the years in my medical practice, I've discovered that men can benefit from higher levels of vitamin E, zinc, and selenium, plus specific nutrients like pumpkin seed extract, lycopene, and breakthrough flower pollen for prostate health.
And, although men and women both benefit from certain heart-supporting nutrients, the best combinations are different for each sex. That's why I made sure to include special gender-specific ingredient blends in my Heart Healthy Multivitamin men's health supplement.
A high-potency multivitamin that's easy to take
My Heart Healthy Multivitamin men's health supplement is packed with the essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants you need to thrive with energy, vitality, and strength, including…
- Vitamins A, C, and E to fight free radicals and keep your immune system strong
- Invigorating B vitamins for sharper mental clarity and a boost in mood
- A whopping 1,000 IU of vitamin D3 and calcium carbonate in a highly absorbable form made from eggshells for superior bone support
- Core nutrients for your heart, brain, nerves, joints, eyes, colon, adrenal system, and more.
I know that there are a lot of one-a-day vitamins out there for men, and I've looked at them. They just can't give you the high-potency amounts of nutrients that your heart and whole body need. And, although one-a-day vitamins can be convenient, they often fall short on ingredient quality as well as quantity. So, in the end, you're not only short-changing your health, but also throwing your hard-earned health care dollars down the drain.
Yet, I've heard from customers that it was difficult to take multiple packets of pills in order to get the levels of vitamins and minerals I recommend each day for optimal health. So I worked diligently with my team at Healthy Directions to pack all of these hard-hitting nutrients into only 3 easy-to-swallow tablets, taken once daily!
Omega Q Plus provides proven cardio benefits from several superstar ingredients:
DHA-rich Calamarine® omega-3 oil
This ultra-pure extract from select ocean squid has abundant Calamarine DHA omega-3 oil. And while both EPA and DHA omega-3s support your cardiovascular health, growing research suggests that it's the DHA omega-3s that work the hardest to improve your blood pressure, blood vessel health, and circulation, plus support your brain, nerves, eyes, and colon.
Highly absorbable Hydro Q-Sorb® CoQ10
Supplementing with CoQ10 is especially important if you're taking heart medications like statin drugs, which can deplete your natural stores of this heart-energizing nutrient. And the Hydro Q-Sorb® in Omega Q Plus is unlike any other CoQ10 on the market because it has a premium, 100% natural CoQ10 molecule core with a water-loving coating on top, so it can easily absorb into your bloodstream and cells where it can do its good work.
In fact, scientific studies show that Hydro Q-Sorb® is 8 times better absorbed than ordinary powdered CoQ10. And you get a full 50 mg in every dose of Omega Q Plus. When you do the math, that's like getting 400 mg of ordinary CoQ10 for remarkable cellular energy and antioxidant protection.
And More!
In addition to these two heart-health power-hitters, Omega Q Plus gives you five more potent heart nutrients—vitamin E, L-carnitine fumarate, folic acid, and vitamins B6 and B12—for bonus cardiovascular support and superior protection against free-radical damage throughout your body.
When you combine Omega Q Plus with the replenishing doses of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in my Heart Healthy Multivitamin for Men, you get optimal cardio protection and total body support that can't be beat. As a cardiologist, I believe these two men's health supplements together are the ultimate daily nutrient "dream team"!

Science and Quality
A high-quality source of heart-healthy DHA
The ability of the body to convert plant-based omega-3s (?-Linolenic acid, or ALA) to EPA, and subsequently DHA, is very low, even in healthy individuals. And DHA is especially difficult to obtain from plant-based omega-3s. Virtually no DHA is converted from ALA: One study showed that only 0.04% is converted to DHA1 and another study showed healthy males converted only 4%.2
You would need to eat about 4 teaspoons of flaxseed oil to get the same amount of DHA in Omega Q Plus…or about 1 cup of walnuts…or about 7 tablespoons of canola oil.
Why is DHA important to heart health?
Blood pressure
Research shows that DHA supplementation has a better effect in promoting normal blood pressure levels than EPA. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, subjects were given purified supplements of EPA or DHA (4 grams) or a placebo for 6 weeks. Researchers found that DHA was superior to EPA for supporting healthy blood pressure levels. DHA (but not EPA) also helped reduce heart rate. It was also found that EPA supplements had no effect on raising blood phospholipid levels of DHA, indicating that the body has a difficult time converting EPA supplements to DHA.3
DHA is also better at improving vasodilation and endothelial function (as measured by forearm blood flow) in these same subjects.4
Blood Lipids
EPA and DHA have been shown to have favorable effects on blood lipids, including triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, and lipid particle size, all important measures of cardiovascular health. While it appears that both EPA and DHA help to lower triglycerides (dosages greater than 2 grams daily), research suggests that DHA is the omega-3 that is responsible for increasing HDL cholesterol levels in the body.
Overall heart health
In a study of postmenopausal women, those with the highest levels of DHA (and not EPA or ALA) showed significantly better coronary artery health over a 3-year period.5 Similarly, in men, research shows that higher levels of DHA (and lower levels of saturated fat) is associated with better coronary artery health.6

Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Chrisopher Hitchens, and Sam Harris, and atheists in general, have a reputation of being arrogant and angry. It is likely that some atheists deserve this reputation, even some mentioned above. However, the evidence for the reputation are often misunderstandings, mischaracterizations of context, and most often "heard it from someone else". For example, one of the most prominent atheists, Richard Dawkins, is often characterized as an angry and inflammatory prick. He may in fact be such a person, but most of the evidence is unfounded, such as out of context quotations, and again, word of mouth. Therefore, any atheist looking forward to an entertaining tongue lashing by purchasing one of his publications may be disappointed, not by the content, but by the lack of "prickishness". The same goes for many atheists. Ask any atheist how people react to him/her saying they do not believe in a god or defending their beliefs, and you will often hear they are accused of being rude or insensitive. All the while, think of how often one hears a religious individual referring to their faith (e.g. thanking God, asking for prayers for the sick, "blessing" people etc.). So why is it that atheists get this reputation and not the religious?
Terror Management Theory (TMT) is a social psychological theory explaining that since humans have awareness of their mortality, they have bouts with existential terror and this is reflected in their behavior. According to Greenberg and Kosloff (2008), when someone has a differing worldview, one may respond with increased prejudice, stereotyping, and anger. They indicate that this is because worldviews (including religion) are vital to managing existential threat, and they must defend them in any way possible. Atheists are a noted minority. They, therefore, challenge widespread worldviews and compound it by challenging a specific worldview (i.e. religion) that is a particularly strong way people deal with existential threat. It is likely that this is the reason atheists have gained their reputation, regardless of if they are. That is, it may be the way the religious deal with perceived threat.
-To Christopher Hitchens: May the science of medicine keep you with us for many more years.

It is absolutly awsome but I did like it more slightly chilled rather than at room temperature as recommended by the book. A little cool the tart does not feel as rich and the peanut-caramel layer gets nice and chewy and a little crunchy. Also I rolled the dough instead of pressing it in the pan which in my experience takes longer and is never even. Rolling it was a breeze between two lightly floured wax papers and took no more than 4 or 5 minutes.
That looks great, Elie! This is one of the first recipes that caught my attention when I first looked through the book, and even though I just made a recipe with the caramel/peanut/chocolate, seeing your tart makes me want more. . .

Are these terminal or GUI programs?Originally Posted by shaun680
Are these programs executable only by the root user?
Did you add the menu entries yourself? Have you tried using the full path to the executable when you add the menu entry. Maybe the programs are not being installed in your path.
This only creates a binary rpm. It does not install it. You still need to install the binary rpm that is created by using rpm --rebuild.while logged in as root. Also the same thing happened when I installed a src.rpm by rpm --rebuild file.rpm. Any help would be much appreciated.
P.S. rpm --rebuild is depreciated use: rpmbuild --rebuild.

The ride of a lifetime
View all trips »
Your basket is empty.
Classic routes and inspiring journeys
Inspired by the classic brevets of Europe, Randonnées are point-to-point rides run over seven days. This season we will be journeying through Europe, the US and Japan. Averaging 130km of mountainous riding per day, our Randonnées are fully supported by soigneurs, mechanics, guides and drivers. Rapha Randonneurs will explore the landscape and culture of their host region, ride challenging terrain and experience the ca- maraderie of these exceptional adventures.
Unpack, ride, escape
We have chosen some of the world's most spectacular riding locations for our Rapha Retreats. These are not training camps: discussions of VO2 max tests and lactate thresholds will be left to others. Rather, we focus on riding as hard as your ability allows and immersing yourself in the landscape, with handpicked accommodation, routes crafted by experienced guides, and just the right helping of food, wine and culture.
100 cols in 10 days
Created and run in association with endurance rider Phil Deeker, the Cent Cols Challenge sees riders average 200km daily, with approximately 4,500m of climbing each day. Held variously in the Alps, Pyrenees, Cantabrico and Corsica, each Challenge combines routes and climbs from the grand tours with lesser-known gems to deliver an incredibly tough but unforgettable experience.
Ultimate custom cycling experience
Rapha Travel's bespoke departures are tailored to the needs and tastes of riders. Each trip is unique, and so could be a re-imagined classic in one of Europe's iconic destinations, or a new adventure on unknown roads. On a bespoke trip, riders will experience Rapha Travel's signature support, including a professional-level mechanic, soigneur and follow car. Off the bike, guests will experience the finest food and accommodation their chosen region has to offer.

The Price River Water Improvement District won't be paying workers at its water plant extra money for working night and graveyard shifts.
Employees had asked the board to consider their suggestion for a shift differential for the late work and the board did discuss it at some length before denying the request.
Board members were reluctant to complicate the pay structure. Plant workers rotate shifts, which means they all work all three shifts on a scheduled basis. That would mean their pay would vary depending on what time they worked rather than what they did.
"I don't mind paying for skills, but not this. It would open a can of worms to create a differential," commented board member Ben Blackburn, mayor of Wellington.
In other discussion points, the board noted that the workers signed on with the understanding that they would be working rotating shifts.
There was also a question of increasing the complexity of accounting for different pay at different hours.
Chairman Richard Tatton noted that it has taken some time for the district to come up with an acceptable pay scale for the different skills and qualifications district-wide, and that tampering with the system might cause more problems that it would solve.
The vote was unanimous.

Comedian David Brenner died today at his home in New York, NY. He was 78. A favorite of Tonight Show host, Johnny Carson, Brenner made over 150 appearances as a guest and substitute host on the NBC latenight show, starting in the '70s. A contemporary of such stand-up legends as Andy Kaufman, Freddie Prinze and Gabe Kaplan, Brenner made a name for his observational comedic styling accentuated by his toothy grin, wavy hair and lanky demeanor. Brenner was born on Feb. 4, 1936 in Philadelphia, the son of a vaudeville singer and comedian who went under the stage name "Lou Murphy". Brenner served two years in the Army and after majoring in mass communications at Temple University, he went on to write, direct and produce socially-conscious TV documentaries as the head of the doc department at Westinghouse Broadcasting and Multimedia Broadcasting. Cutting his teeth on the stand-up circuit in New York, in the late '60s, Brenner was spotted by a Tonight Show talent scout. Several auditions later, Brenner made his debut on the latenight show on January 8, 1971. In 1976, Brenner starred in the short-lived comedy series Snip opposite Lesley Ann Warren, which was a take-off on Warren Beatty's 1975 film Shampoo. He also played a charity ball auctioneer in the 1989 romantic comedy Worth Winning starring Mark Harmon and Madeleine Stowe. The comedian also made appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show, The David Frost Show, The Mike Douglas Show, Real Time With Bill Maher, The Late Show With David Letterman, The Daily Show and was a frequent guest on Howard Stern. Brenner was one of the comedians featured seen in the 2005 cult documentary The Aristocrats. Brenner died in New York City at his home. Enjoy this clip of Brenner guest-hosting The Tonight Show:
David Brenner, a prominent stand-up comedian and regular guest of Johnny Carson's on "The Tonight Show," died of cancer Saturday afternoon in his New York City home surrounded by his family, according to spokesperson Jeff Abraham. He was 78.
Brenner began his career as a writer, producer and director of documentaries, putting more than 100 on the air. Yet he eventually realized "you don't change the world by doing documentaries," according to a recent "CBS This Morning" profile.
He decided to try comedy for a year, and, shortly before that year was up, his agent brought the top booker for "The Tonight Show" to see Brenner in Greenwich Village.
"He saw me and what he said was 'David Brenner does vomit material," Brenner recalled. "'Not only won't he be on 'Tonight Show,' we won't let him in the building at 30 Rockefeller.'"

That lit a fire under Brenner, who prepared a monologue better suited to Carson's show and auditioned. He booked a gig, and his appearance elicited immediate requests for more. He appeared more than 150 times on "Tonight Show" as a guest and substitute host. He also appeared on other talk shows and game shows before hosting his own show for a year.
"In David's final request he asked that one hundred dollars in small bills be placed in his left sock "just in case tipping is recommended where I'm going," according to a statement issued by Abraham. "His final resting spot will read "If this is supposed to be a joke – then I don't get it!"

Brenner is survived by his wife Ruth; his three sons, Cole, Wyatt and Slade; his grandson, Wesley.

Josh Brolin belonged to a surfer gang called the Cito Rats and dabbled in hard drugs when he was a teenager, he said in a recent interview with The Guardian. Brolin opened up about his childhood, telling the British newspaper the Rats were a group of "children of rich, neglectful parents or children of poor, neglectful parents."
"I tried heroin," Brolin said. "That sounds so horrible when you put it like that. But yeah, I tried heroin."
Brolin never took to the drug, but many of his friends did.
"I've had 19 friends who died," Brolin said. "Most of those guys I grew up with, they're all dead now."
Also see: WrapChat: Philip Seymour Hoffman and Hollywood's Link Between Drugs and Creativity (Video)
Brolin sat down for the interview to discuss "Labor Day," Jason Reitman's latest movie in which Brolin plays Frank, an escaped convict who lands in suburbia.
The question of sobriety has hung over Brolin since he was arrested for public intoxication on New Year's Eve of 2012. Despite media repots that he entered a rehab facility last November, Brolin swears he is clean and focused on his upcoming projects.
The actor appeared in "Gangster Squad," "Oldboy" and "Labor Day" last year, three movies viewers received poorly. He will appear in two movies this year that should fare better, "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For," a sequel to Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's hit film, and "Inherent Vice," the latest movie from Paul Thomas Anderson.

The first hour is more preoccupied with immersing viewers into the action and getting a couple of major twists out of the way than delving into the depths of its major players.
But here's what we do know: A bus of children is taken hostage by a group of highly trained criminals while on a field trip. What do the bad guys want? It's unclear. But the children's parents all hold positions of power in Washington, D.C., ranging from the CEO of a major corporation (Gillian Anderson) to the president of the United States. There's also a nearly unrecognizable Dermot Mulroney playing a shlubby parent chaperone who's an embarrassment to his daughter, but who defies expectations when it comes to the events that unfold. And in a made-for-TV coincidence, the no-nonsense FBI agent in charge of the case, Susie Dunn (Rachael Taylor), is the estranged sister of Anderson's character, Meg Fitch.
