Kate Gosselin and her little ones want to stay on TV.
The mother-of-eight, whose last episode of Kate Plus 8 airs on TLC Monday night, vowed to The Today Show's Matt Lauer that she and her kids will pop up on the small screen again, should the right opportunity come along.
Lauer Monday asked Gosselin why she was acting sad, as opposed to being happy she'd be able to return to a normal life for she and her children.
"There is sadness, because it's the end of an era," Kate said. "I feel sad for my kids because of all of the opportunities that they're now questioning what's gonna happen.
"I feel sad for fans, because they're devastated," she said. "They're saying, you know, you're the neighbor moving far away and we won't see you again."
Kate admitted a part of her sadness stemmed from the loss of income and TV momentum.
"There's also fear because this has been, although maybe not my career, it has been the start essentially of my career and my job and the way I've been providing for my kids for six years. And so you know, it is a little scary."
Asked about our exclusive report in which Jon said he was relieved his little ones would finally be out of the limelight, Kate said she holds herself to higher expectations as a provider than her ex.
"It's a situation where Jon may be accepting of mediocre for his kids, and working a regular job -- I want the best for my kids and the best opportunities, not unlike every parent," the Pennsylvania native said. "I think that to be a good parent is to work as hard as you can and give them the best opportunities in life, and [reality TV] has provided that.
"I think at this point, the best opportunity for all of us would be me continuing on TV as a way to provide for my kids. Something that's exciting and challenging for me has been TV, and I wouldn't be opposed to it."
Lauer asked Kate if she'd be opposed to put her kids back on the boob tube.
"You know, if the right thing came along, I think we are all still in agreement with it," she said, adding, "I'm sure you will see my kids again at some point."
Before leaving, she thanked TLC and plugged the website she launched Monday, kateplusmyeight.com.

(WCAU) - The book "50 Shades of Grey" has exploded as a best seller, and now the sexy story about a sadomasochistic relationship even has hardware stores tapping into the craze.
Bob Wipplinger, the owner of Pendel Hardware, says his wife clued him in on why so many customers were suddenly asking for cotton rope.
"Usually they ask for bungie cords or clothes line or that kind of thing but they said, the guy who came in here kept saying it had to be cotton, it had to be cotton, like he had to please somebody," Wipplinger laughs.
Bob's thinking with rope sales looking up, customers may want other items used for pleasure in the book.
He keeps a checklist behind the counter, and says he's happy to offer "Shades of Grey" readers his professional advice when buying rope.
"Probably get the softer stuff," he advises.
Susan Mannino, owner of Philadelphia's Pleasure Chest adult novelty store, calls the men who come in to buy for their significant others who are reading the book "Grey husbands".
She says her sales are up because the book enticed a new and different group of people into the store.
"That's how we learned about the book from husbands and boyfriends looking for items in the book to use," she says.
Saleswoman Lauren Levin says men and women are buying just about anything used by characters in the book.
"The silver ball, or the crop and other things like the masks pretty standard bondagey stuff," she explains.
Jill McDevitt, owner of Feminique, a store that specializes in sexy lingerie and sex toys, says she can't keep some items used in the book in stock.
McDevitt, who has a masters degree in human sexuality, says she's happy for the sales boost, but is no fan of "50 Shades of Grey".
"The Christian Grey character is very possessive and raises some red flags about potentially abusive relationships," she warns.

Emily Dickinson: "It was not death, for I stood up,"
Music and adolescent angst in the (18)80s.
Like hair, power ballads were big in my day (the '80s), and Emily Dickinson's were a lot more memorable than Mötley Crüe's. We thumbed our noses at our English teachers by singing "I heard a fly buzz when I died" to the tune of "Gilligan's Island," repeating "between the heaves of storm" in place of "a three-hour tour." This trick works because Dickinson adopted her meter largely from hymns and ballads—the pop songs of her time—with their simple stressed lines and repeating rhymes.
As a child, Dickinson may have sung hymns at the church she regularly attended, but her relationship to organized religion soon became conflicted. She dropped out of Mount Holyoke Female Seminary before the end of her first year. "Instead of tolling the Bell, for Church," Dickinson wrote, "Our little Sexton – sings." Her nonconformist poetic stance appealed to the fledgling goth-girl in me: somewhat shy, slyly irreverent, introspective, and imaginatively dark. Like many teenagers testing their new-wave wings, I had Cyndi Lauper in one ear, singing "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun," and Dickinson in the other, insisting that Girls Just Wanna Think about Their Mortality . . . and Immortality.
With its brooding, melancholic language and surreal images, the Dickinson poem that spoke most directly to my adolescent angst was "It was not Death, for I stood up":
It was not Death, for I stood up,
And all the Dead, lie down –
It was not Night, for all the Bells
Put out their Tongues, for Noon.
It was not Frost, for on my Flesh
I felt Siroccos – crawl –
Nor Fire – for just my Marble feet
Could keep a Chancel, cool –
Those bells, "put[ting] out their Tongues," give the afternoon the Bronx cheer. Dickinson defines her despair by telling us not what it is, but what it's not ("It was not Death"). The more forcefully she negates her metaphors ("It was not Night," "It was not Frost"), the more dire her feelings become. It wasn't death, she insists, but it sure feels like it. Punished by "Siroccos" (those unrelenting hot Saharan winds), she's as cool and aloof as marble statuary. When these comparisons fail to convey just how bad the situation is, she resorts to similes that are even more drastic:
And yet, it tasted, like them all,
The Figures I have seen
Set orderly, for Burial,
Reminded me, of mine –
As if my life were shaven,
And fitted to a frame,
And could not breathe without a key,
And 'twas like Midnight, some –
Stripped to the bone ("as if my life were shaven / And fitted to a frame"), she suffers the rigor mortis of a body awaiting burial. Words fail, becoming unmoored from their sentence:
When everything that ticked – has stopped –
And Space stares all around –
Or Grisly frosts – first Autumn morns,
Repeal the Beating Ground –
But, most, like Chaos – Stopless – cool –
Without a Chance, or Spar –
Or even a Report of Land –
To Justify – Despair.
The "Figures" (such as chaos itself) remain frozen ("Stopless – cool –"), just as the world and space stop around them. Like an explorer lost for months at sea, Dickinson is awash in abstraction, without the grounding that "even a Report of Land" must bring. Her ideas are fractured, incomplete, interrupted by those dashes. Each one is a semaphore, its signal flag raised mid-thought, as if to say I am abandoning my vessel.
Punctuation, usually so helpful in making the meaning clear, isn't here. Instead, the silence that takes its place is meant to warn and make us wary, to pause and parry, so that we lurch and linger—and turn back to the emphatic import of every capitalized noun. When we listen, it's hard not to hear the multiple meanings in a phrase like "first Autumn morns," whose implication of mourning isn't lost on the ear. And it's impossible not to hear the insistent rhythm and rhyme of the ballad, as if Dickinson were tapping her toes under every deliberate line.
If hymn meter (lines of eight syllables alternating with lines of six) was Dickinson's metronome, ballad meter (4/3/4/3)—what she's using here—was her "double time." We can hear in that quickened and hypnotic pace—and in those short, sharp, shocked syllables ("Flesh," "crawl," "feet," "cool") the urgency of her message. As logic and syntax break down, the relentless, marching rhythm of the ballad's sound-sense steps in to drive us onward.
It's here that Dickinson's poem stages a "battle of the bands," as secular and spiritual music duel it out. If despair was a song, wouldn't it sound like this: clipped, repetitive, taut—as imperative as church music, as regular as a ballad's refrain? In the face of internal—and eternal—questions about loneliness and self-loathing, Dickinson's poem is a rebellious music that laments those particular states of adolescence we never quite outgrow.

ST. PETERSBURG, Florida -- Let's face it; golf is difficult. To play at a championship level, it's nearly impossible for the average player. But, never fear. There is hope in Oldsmar this weekend.
The Tampa Bay Downs golf practice facility is hosting Golfest for the third consecutive year. It's a chance for players to test out new equipment from major golf companies like Nike, Cobra, Titleist, Taylor Made, and more.
The new clubs are helping players fine-tune their swings. All of the new 2013 models are on display, and you can even try out a few outside the box golfing gadgets.
Steve McDonald had a large crowd around him at the practice putting green. He was demonstrating how to use the Juan Putt putter. It's a new idea in putting that requires the player to stand alongside the ball at impact. The stance provides you a straight line of sight to the hole.
"If you were going to shoot a free throw (in basketball), you'd face the target. If you were going to shoot pool, you'd face the target. If you were going to draw a bow and arrow, you'd face the target," he said. "It's just a system to putt better, hole more putts and have more fun."
The crowds got to meet 5-time LPGA winner and Seminole native Brittany Lincicome on the driving range, and watch some of the top junior players in the world put on a clinic with the 2012 North Florida PGA Coach of the Year Matt Mitchell.
Golfest continues on Sunday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tickets are $10. Children 16-and-under are admitted for free. For more information, call (813) 854-4946. Raffles and demonstrations are free.

A truck negotiates a curve on the dusty Seep Ridge Road, formerly referred to as the Book Cliffs Highway.
Bureau of Land Management officials have approved the paving of Seep Ridge Road from Uintah County to the Grand County line, leaving some Grand County Council members concerned about the possible impacts to the county.
There are also potential effects for Carbon County.
Currently a two-lane road surfaced with gravel in the north end and shale in the south, Seep Ridge Road stretches from the eastern edge of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation boundary, approximately nine miles south of Ouray, Utah, to Interstate 70. The BLM decision will enable Uintah County to pave 44.5 miles of the road, beginning at the Uintah/Grand County line and moving north, officials said.
In the late 1980s, an effort on the part of local officials to pave Seep Ridge Road - referred to then as the Book Cliffs Highway - was one of several issues that sparked public backlash and led to the dissolution of the county's then-commission form of government and the creation of the council form of government.
Grand County Council members this week discussed the possible fiscal impact of the project for Grand County. Specifically, council members voiced concern that possible increased traffic coming from the paved portion of the road into the unpaved section in Grand County might require additional funding for road maintenance, law enforcement, and search and rescue/Emergency Medical Services.
Council member Audrey Graham presented a proposed letter to Uintah County officials requesting the development of a memorandum of understanding between the two counties to establish an agreement to safeguard Grand County against future impact.
Bill Jackson, Grand County Road Department supervisor, told council members he has reviewed the BLM's environmental assessment (EA) for the project and believes paving the road in Uintah will likely have minimal impact to Grand County.
"The EA finding is that the impact for Grand County would not be significant," he said. "I think, eventually, there might be some impact, but who knows how much. The road is already impacted by oil and gas vehicles, and I don't see that traffic would increase that much to change that impact."
According to the environmental assessment, the project would improve conditions for oil and gas wells and other energy-related facility operators in the Book Cliffs area and reduce the costs of maintenance and support services for the vehicles and equipment used in those operations. The document also stated that more than 100,000 acres of the Book Cliffs area would be managed to continue to afford visitors and citizens the "same level of solitude and primitive recreation use" as they enjoy now.
The EA does note the possible need for increased law enforcement in the Book Cliffs area to minimize vandalism, risks to human health and safety, and traffic violations that may result from the road being paved.
BLM officials addressed the possible maintenance costs to Grand County, stating that the additional maintenance work could cause Grand County to shift its limited resources to their portion of Seep Ridge Road from more populated areas of the county. The EA also notes concerns that Grand County will receive pressure from the public to pave its portion of the road connecting with Interstate 70. That idea was revived in 2007 but dismissed because it was estimated to cost $6 million per mile.
Jackson said that neither he nor other road department workers feel any pressure to change the current conditions of Grand's portion of the road.
"I don't think there's much to do now," he said. "It's too early to really tell what the impact could be."
Council member Jim Nyland agreed with Jackson, saying that he wants to avoid having a knee-jerk reaction to the project.
"I don't want to get into the habit of sending letters to other counties about what they are doing in their own jurisdictions," he said.
Graham said she still believes an agreement with Uintah County would give Grand County options concerning any potential financial impact, but she agreed with the council to take no action at this time.
The paving of the road, if that action eventually leads to Grand County improving and even paving its section of the roadway to I-70, could be of concern to Carbon and Emery County residents as well. If fully paved from U.S. 40 to the freeway Seep Ridge Road could cut the travel route to the Uintah Basin from the interstate from and through both counties. Westbound I-70 traffice could cut directly north on that route toward Vernal, Roosevelt and into Wyoming without passing through either Green River, Wellington, Price or Helper. Eastbound traffic could still be seen to stop in Green River, but would miss coming through the towns in western Emery County as well as Price and Helper to head in the same direction.
While it has not been estimated how much traffic (and consequently the economic impact results) that passes through the two county area goes on to the Uintah Basin, the loss in revenues could be considerable.

ELMO - Our loving, wonderful and kind father James Leroy Wright, age 76, was carried away by the angels peacefully on Sept. 28, 2012 at the Beehive Homes in Elmo.
He was born Nov. 13, 1935 in Scofield to John "Boone" and Agnes Milliam Wright.
He met the love of his life Jane McKendrick and they were married on Feb. 2, 1962. They had one daughter Cora "Cory" Lynne Wright. They enjoyed 48 wonderful years together until the angels took Jane away on Jan. 12, 2010. James was a very happy man, a friend to all and always willing to help anyone. He loved to tease people especially his wife and daughter. James loved the outdoors especially fishing and swimming. He greatly enjoyed country music.

Lighthouse Project: Chapter Two
Sunshine and warm weather were always the driving factor. But not everyone who came to Southwest Florida was looking for fun in the sun. Some were looking to start a new life; others were on the lam. It was the first period of growth. Homes started popping up. So did trading posts and thatched-roof schoolhouses. And by the beginning of the 20th century, Naples was becoming a bona fide tourist town with a hotel and a pier to collect visitors. Naples — and much of Southwest Florida as we now know it — had been born.

|The National Institutes of Health has decided to cancel a large-scale test of an experimental AIDS vaccine, saying that more focused research was needed on the way such vaccines interact with the immune system before the trial, known as PAVE 100, could proceed. The PAVE trial was designed to include over 8500 people. The vaccine to be tested was similar in some regards to a vaccine developed by pharmaceutical company Merck that failed in a study last fall. Both vaccines, rather than preventing infection, were designed to stimulate an immune response that would help infected individuals to keep HIV levels in check within the bloodstream. In this segment, Ira talks with Dr Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute on Allergy and Infectious Diseases, about the decision not to proceed with the large PAVE 100 study. What challenges do researchers need to work out to be able to produce and effective AIDS vaccine?

slkinsey, you're pretty much my hero. But..
One main difference, to my taste, between Rose's and anything with fresh lime juice is that the fresh citruc juice is much more acidic. Like most people here, I use fresh in any cocktail other than a gin gimlet. I'm inclined to use fresh lime juice in gimlet-like cocktails, but they don't strike me as gimlets then so much as gimlet-inspired drinks. So, I guess that means that I usually drink gimlet knockoffs (I like gin, simple syrup, fresh lime juice and a whisper of Ricard).
I gotta say, I *always* use Rose's lime in a gimlet. It's the only place where the stuff isn't foul, and in fact I don't LIKE a gimlet made with fresh lime juice. My wife and I are cocktail lovers, and always have fresh limes in the fridge, so it's not a convenience thing. I'll gladly pull out the lemons to make a proper Aviation or the limes to make a delicious Margarita, but for a gimlet I think Rose's lime really hits the spot. No, it's not lime-y except in a "Live Saver's" kind of way. To me, it tastes like lime Jell-O.
Off topic, I also think Rose's lime makes a really great addition to salsa verde. Try it sometime. I promise.

Habibiby Craig Thompson
Staff Pick
In Habibi, Craig Thompson strides into a minefield and emerges with an abundance of love, presenting a graphic novel of such dazzling scope, it took nearly seven years to create.
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
From the internationally acclaimed author of Blankets ("A triumph for the genre." —Library Journal), a highly anticipated new graphic novel.
Sprawling across an epic landscape of deserts, harems, and modern industrial clutter, Habibi tells the tale of Dodola and Zam, refugee child slaves bound to each other by chance, by circumstance, and by the love that grows between them. We follow them as their lives unfold together and apart; as they struggle to make a place for themselves in a world (not unlike our own) fueled by fear, lust, and greed; and as they discover the extraordinary depth — and frailty — of their connection.
At once contemporary and timeless, Habibi gives us a love story of astounding resonance: a parable about our relationship to the natural world, the cultural divide between the first and third worlds, the common heritage of Christianity and Islam, and, most potently, the magic of storytelling.
"Thompson's (Blankets) first graphic novel in seven years is a lushly epic love story that's both inspiring and heartbreaking, intertwined with parables from both Islam and Christianity. Sold into marriage as a young girl, Dodola endures life as the wife of a scribe until she's captured by slave traders and brought to Wanatolia to be auctioned off. But before she can be sold again, she escapes, taking with her an abandoned toddler named Habibi. The pair runaway to the desert, taking refuge in an abandoned boat, where they survive for nine years, with Dodola teaching Zam the ways of the world through stories from the Qur'an and the Bible. When Zam is 12, he secretly follows Dodola and realizes that she has been prostituting herself to passing caravans in order to acquire food. They are separated when Dodola is taken against her will to become part of a sultan's harem, leaving Zam alone in the desert. Six long years pass as the two struggle to find their way back to each other and, overcoming enormous odds, eventually end up far from the ancient desert landscape in a contemporary metropolis that underscores Thompson's subtle ability to blend the timeless and the current. In addition to richly detailed story panels, the gorgeous Arabic ornamental calligraphy makes each page an individual work of art. (Sept.)" Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
"This is not just an epic that sprawls from desert to harem to modern urban waste…it's a look at how the first and third worlds are divided, Islam and Christianity united, and humanity too separated from the natural world. Ambitious." Library Journal
"A dense, swirling dervish of a tale…this will be the most talked about graphic novel of the fall." Publisher Weekly
"The character depth, plot complexity, and storytelling in this lyrical, sexual, and scholarly epic would make any novelist proud...Thompson strings compositions that are often more tapestry than comics and that balance graphic design, illumination, calligraphy, and cartooning in steady alignment. It is unfair to expect two masterpieces in a row from anyone, but here Thompson sits securely in that rarefied air." Booklist (Starred Review)
"Habibi lifts the bar of graphic storytelling to new heights, both by the intricate, dramatic density and breathtaking scholarship of Thompson's panels and by the sheer scale and decorative beauty of his flowing, roiling, protean style. Thompson is the Charles Dickens of the genre, able to capture all the scary, heartbreaking, brave, uplifting details of his characters' fates while orchestrating the big-picture machinations that connect them to the lives and times of his readers...Habibi is a masterpiece that surely is one of a kind." Elle Magazine
"A graphic novel that is sure to attract attention...A mature—in all its meanings—glimpse into a world few Westerners are at home with, and Thompson is respectful throughout." Kirkus
"Exquisite...Habibi is a remarkable feat of research, care, and black ink, and a reminder that all 'People of the book,' despite the division of their individual traditions, share a mosaic of stories." Harper's Magazine
"Habibi has classic written all over it. It's a modern literary triumph, a book so broad and magical in its scope, only a master could pull it off. This is no ordinary comic, it is a complete work of art. Beautiful, thought provoking, both timeless and of its time...An awe-inspiring read you can't afford to miss." Grovel
"Easily the best graphic novel of the year, and probably the decade...Thompson's line work here is beyond brilliant, combining myriad styles and capturing the rich historical legacy of the cultural and religious volumes that inspired it. This is a work that truly changes the game and sets a new standard for all the graphic novels that follow it." GraphicNovelReporter.com
"Craig Thompson's new graphic novel, Habibi, is a masterpiece. This isn't an opinion. This book is a gorgeous object; to make it, Thompson apparently covered himself in honey and rolled around in a thousand years of Arabic calligraphy and Islamic art, and the result is breathtaking." The Boston Phoenix
"Erotic, grotesque, and profoundly moving...I don't think I've ever read a book quite like this, and I expect I'll be thinking about it for a long, long time." Boing Boing
About the Author
Craig Thompson's previous graphic novels include Blankets (for which he received three Harvey Awards for Best Artist, Best Graphic Album of Original Work, and Best Cartoonist; and two Eisner Awards for Best Graphic Album and Best Writer/Artist); Goodbye, Chunky Rice; and Carnet de Voyage. He lives in Portland, Oregon.

Welcome to MAGNOLIA, the Mississippi Alliance for Gaining New Opportunities Through Library Information Access.
MAGNOLIA provides Mississippi residents with access to electronic databases through their local public, school, community college, or university libraries.
MAGNOLIA is funded by the Mississippi Legislature and partially funded by the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) administered by the Mississippi Library Commission.
July 9, 2015
The Mississippi Legislature has again provided $1 million in support of MAGNOLIA. It is great to have this continued funding, but it doesn't cover the entire cost of the databases MAGNOLIA provides. While many libraries throughout the state provide funds in support of the MAGNOLIA project, it is clear that we will be unable to raise enough funds to maintain subscriptions with all of our vendors (EBSCO and OCLC).
After reviewing the subscription costs and usage statistics of each database, the MAGNOLIA Steering Committee has made the difficult decision to discontinue its subscription to Credo Reference. This subscription will end on July 31, 2015, and will be removed from the MAGNOLIA website at that time.

President Obama unloaded a leftist laundry list of new federal spending and high-handed executive decrees in his February 12 State of the Union address, while at the same time supporting no year-over-year spending cuts to federal programs. He announced plans to implement gun control, a national minimum wage of $9 per hour, environmental executive order decrees on carbon emissions, more education spending, federal pre-school care, and many other programs.
Obama claimed during the address, "Let me repeat — nothing I'm proposing tonight should increase our deficit by a single dime. It's not a bigger government we need, but a smarter government that sets priorities and invests in broad-based growth." But in reality, the president made no provision for how all these new and expanded government programs would be funded. Moreover, he even campaigned against the spending cuts Congress has already passed, specifically the looming "sequester" spending cuts, which he labeled "a really bad idea."
The lack of numbers behind Obama's claims caused open scorn in the CNN newsroom among all but Democratic Party functionaries, and Cincinnati television investigative journalist Ben Swann posted on Facebook page, "He just explained he doesn't want sequestration cuts, so where does this $ come from?"
The president definitely opposed additional spending cuts in any government programs:
Most Americans — Democrats, Republicans and Independents — understand that we can't just cut our way to prosperity. They know that broad-based economic growth requires a balanced approach to deficit reduction, with spending cuts and revenue, and with everybody doing their fair share.

LEWISTON, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Because many of the Lewiston fire victims did not have a car before the apartment fires last week, many need transportation to get to the donations and services scattered throughout the city.
Hudson Bus Lines in Lewiston has stepped in to help, with several bus drivers volunteering to take people to and from shelters, the YWCA, and move in to new housing.
Terminal Manager Peter Ouellette estimates some of his drivers have worked an extra 20 hours in the last week, driving Lewiston fire victims around the city.
One driver, Bonnie LeClair, has even gone to other parts of the state to pick up donated items.
The Red Cross estimates 29 people are still staying in the emergency shelter location at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee.

Is 'love' continuous or not?
A TV ad about a food company uses the phrase: I'm loving it! how can I explain the use of the verb 'I love' in the Present Continuous? According to the British English Grammar, some verbs such as 'I love' have no continuous form.
Sort by
As is usualy the case, grammar might just not keep up with the actual language spoken by people today. On the other hand: one of the basic usages for present continuous is 'an ongoing action around now'. If I'm eating at that food company at a certain time, I'm loving it at that time. That feeling goes away after a while though, that's for sure. So it fits perfectly. One other possible explaination is that the copywriter was aiming for an other possble usage: gradual development (like in 'It's getting dark'). In this case one may say that the loving gradualy develops and then goes away. Then again, chances are the copywriter in question didn't care about the grammar of it at all...
You are right that 'to love' does not have a continuous form in English. I teach grammar, and I discussed this ad with my students. Even if you are in the act of eating a gigantic hamburger and it is very pleasing to you, it would be grammatically correct to say, "I love this hamburger!"
It is really a question of register. On the most informal, spoken level of any language, it is acceptable to use language that contains what would be grammatical, syntactical, or even pronunciation errors on another register. This company likes to make an attempt to connect with its perceived customer base by talking to them in what it perceives to be their language. I'm sure hundreds of hours of market research told them that grammar nerds aren't exactly their base.
The same company that that mounted the "I'm lovin' it" ad is super invested in talking down to the level of the people, even if it ends up looking really stupid in the process. About three or four years ago they mounted a breakfast campaign in 'urban' areas that used the phrase "get up wit' me," which was a faux phonetic transcription of the way many African American people pronounce the word 'with.' Such racist pandering is just one example of the way they lower the quality of their ads to match the quality of their food.

Remember "I'd hit it?" They should've just stuck with that one.
I believe when it comes to ads, grammar is not necessary to be effective, whether it's spoken or written. They do not even have to be logical.
So long as they "catch" someone's attention, they do their job!
LowB's explanation is excellent, it's applicable only to the "non advertising world" though.
First of all, I'm digging this topic. Secondly, the flexibility of English verb tense makes such a advertising quip so darn "hip." Although English certainly has its drawbacks in other grammatical respects, its specificity in this example cannot be matched in translations into other languages. In a McDonald's in Germany the slogan simply reads "Ich liebe es, " which could be translated as "I'm loving it" OR "I love it" OR the (in English) emphatic "I do love it." I guess that does cover the gammit, though. If your friend asks you "Are loving that shake?" OR "Love you that shake?" OR "Do you love that shake?", you've covered all the bases.
I am believing that the slogan "I'm loving it" was being invented by a person from India. ;-)

I think that there clearly IS a difference in meaning between 'I love it' and 'I'm lovin' it', and I doubt many native speakers of English have any difficulty noticing and understanding it. If so, then it's useful for us to be able to exploit the language in order to express that difference in meaning.
P.S. See the discussion on 'Live or Living', and note the word 'temporary'.
How about the great hit by the Scorpions "I'm still loving you" ? Is it correct or it is so because they themselves are non-English like me ? Or could it mean "I love you now and will probally continue to love you for another while" ?. :-))
When the great Scottish restaurant chain came up with this grammatical inaccuracy, I also associated it immediately with the Scorpions' hit. Never having been an expert in written or spoken English, let alone English grammar, Klaus Meine (the Scorps' vocalist and lyricist) certainly wasn't aware of this problem when he penned the words to the song. If he was, which I doubt, he must have been referring to a much more physical way of 'love' than most of us thought at the time...
However, as every language is subject to a slow metamorphosis in certain areas, we will have to accept the fact that 'love' now does have a continuous form. And finally, a mere 20-odd years later, Klaus Meine's (who infamously once proclaimed at a 'Rock-against-right' concert: Let's fight FOR racism!) faux-pas is put right by history.
What are the publishers of grammar books going to do about this? Personally, I refuse to accept this form, because I don't love it...
Using stative verbs like "love" in the progressive is common in some kinds of English, for instance Indian English.
You are all idiots who are very wrong
just guessing.......... isnt it the meaning of making love to someone........ just as robbie williams is "loving angels instead"...
Personally, I'd give McD's a little more credit. Do you really think that they were unaware of the nonstandard nature of "I'm lovin' it"? Quite the contrary, I think they RELIED on it. If their slogan was, "I love it", there would be no response at all to the ho-hum phrase. But, "I'm lovin' it", that's a little unsettling. The listeners' ears really perk up when they hear that: "gee did I hear that right? Let me listen more carefully. Aha, yes, they're trying to be clever" and, voila, a memorable ad is born.
Also, what about the country song, "I cain't stop lovin' you"?
Porsche has got a very good point here. I would say that the ingenuity of the copy-writer lies in turning 'to love', a state verb, into a dynamic verb. As a dynamic verb it can be used in a continuous (progressive) tense. It then means something like 'I'm enjoying it.' But to a much higher degree: 'I'm really, really enjoying this, albeit temporarily.'
By the way: In 'I can't stop lovin' you', the word 'lovin' is not a present participle as used in a continuous tense. It's a gerund following the verb 'to stop'. The statement itself is in the present simple, not the continuous (I can't stop.) Hope that helps.

In my humble opinion, you're barking up the wrong tree. The 'problem' is lexical, not grammatical.
"I'm lovin' it" means nothing else than "I'm ENJOYIN' it very much".
Which works just fine in the progressive. This doesn't break a grammatical rule, it's a new meaning for the word 'love'.
Whoops. Let me reformulate my post:
I completely agree with Caroline Bauer.
As an English teacher I can tell you it is not a progressive verb unless it is referring to sexual content
And as another English teacher, I beg to differ. From Swan's Practical English Usage - 'Note that many non-progressive verbs are occasionally used in progressive forms in order to emphasise the idea of change or development - "These days, more and more people are preferring to take early retirement" "The water's tasting better today."'
I think love is at least a borderline case. Yes, when we are talking about the emotion of love, we don't usually say 'I'm loving her so much' or 'I have been loving her ever since we first met', apart from in the meaning that eddy mentioned. But as someone has already mentioned, when we use 'love' to mean 'enjoy' (a dynamic verb), then I think we can sometimes use continuous forms to describe a temporary situation and not sound unnatural (the only criterion, as far as I'm concerned) - 'I'm really loving my job at the moment'. And from the web, 'He's loving his swimming lessons'.
I imagine that even the greatest Big Mac fans tend to enjoy the place rather than have deep emotions towards it. I think this is why McDonald's slogan, while being edgy enough to gain the attention of the traditionalists, didn't actually sound that unnatural to many of us, so we accepted it quite easily. They were playing with the language, sure, but we accepted it as possible .
In contrast, during the 2012 Euro championships, Warsaw put up banners saying (in English) - 'Feel Like At Home'. When it was pointed out that no native speaker would ever say such a thing, their publicity agency said they were simply following McDonald's example and playing with the language. But unlike the McDonald's slogan, this one was so unnatural that it was just met with mirth by expats here, and in the British press. As porsche said, McDonalds knew just what they were doing - different enough to get publicity, but not so different that the bulk of native speakers would find it particularly unnatural.

The beheading of an Indian soldier may have sparked a war of words between Delhi and Islamabad but the two nuclear rivals are both determined to prevent it from wrecking a fragile peace process. Two Indian soldiers died after a firefight erupted in disputed Kashmir on Tuesday as a patrol moving in fog discovered Pakistani troops about 500 metres (yards) inside Indian territory, according to the Indian army.

What's wrong with this picture?
At 11 a.m. this morning I went to the store to have a prescription filled. When I got home I used the bathroom and when I went to flush there was no water. The next time I needed to go the bathroom I walked a block to my friend's house. This kept up all day.
I walked up the street to the park at 4:45 p.m. and asked the workers how long it was going to be and I mentioned how upset that I was that we had been given no notice of the shut off.
One of the men told me that they would have the water turned on as soon as possible. Another man told me that they had put notices on all the doors and that they may have been blown off by the wind. I checked with all of my neighbors and the only one who had a notice did not get it until the mail was delivered to his house this afternoon. He told me the water was off at 8 a.m. I actually do not remember turning my water before I went to the store.
I just feel that a little more courtesy could be shown to citizens who pay their utility bills. Not too long ago time was taken to at least tape the notices to the doors so they stay put. The neighbor who found his notice in the mail told me his notice said the water would be back on by 6 p.m. When I checked my water tap at 6:39 p.m. to see if the water was back on it was not. It would have been nice to have a notice so that we could have made sure we had extra water for such emergencies as this.
Unfortunately most of the containers I had water in started to leak and I had to throw them away and so I had nothing for today's emergency. So I'm going to the store tomorrow to purchase more. This time I'll keep a closer eye on them so if they leak I will replace them.
I hope another episode like today's does not happen in Price again and, if it does, I hope the time is taken to tape the notices to the doors of the people who will be affected.

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate associate editor
Facing a slash of $800,000 in next year's budget caused by slumping enrollments, USU Eastern is taking steps to ease the pain of inevitable reductions in personnel and programs.
The college is offering eligible employees an option to resign voluntarily and is offering a cash incentive to make separation worth considering.
In a mass-email to the Price and Blanding campuses, Chancellor Joe Peterson stated that employees aged 56 to 59 and 60 to 65 who are eligible for early retirement will receive a one-time cash incentive of 25 percent of annual salary in addition to the full early retirement benefits. The payout could be in cash - making it taxable - or it could be put in into a tax-advantaged retiree health savings plan. There are some technical differences in the treatments of the two age groups.
The other option in the Voluntary Separation Incentive Program is for any benefit-eligible college employee to quit and be paid a one-time cash payout of one week's salary for each full year of service. There's a minimum of $5,000 and a maximum of $22,000 or 20 weeks' salary, whichever is less.
USU Eastern's Cabinet has to approve all VSIP participants.
Also, this is is a one-time deal with a short deadline. Those who wish to apply must do so before March 1.
"After the VSIP deadline, the College will identify other positions and programs for elimination in order to make the required budget reductions," the chancellor's letter stated.
The college has lost tuition revenue as result of its enrollment decline. The 2011-12 school year enrollment was only 89 percent of the previous year. This year's enrollment was 85 percent of 2011-12. That's equivalent to 400 full-time students, with a drop in tuition revenue of about $3,000 per full-time equivalent.
The $800,000 reduction will mean $500,000 less to spend in Price and a $300,000 hit at Blanding.
The projected cuts come as no surprise. The drop in enrollments was apparent last fall, when the first figures came out. In an interview last October, Chancellor Joe Peterson and Vice Chancellor Brad King said the college and the university are aware they're facing a big challenge to reverse the trend.
This is especially true since the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has lowered the age for male missionaries to 18 from 19 years old. Young Mormon men will not attend a year of community college before departing for their missions.
Nevertheless, the college is embarking on what the chancellor had called a "big, audacious goal" of boosting enrollments to 4,000 students in four years.
Peterson will introduce details of the "Four in Four" campaign at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon next Thursday.

A close friend of mine recently hired me to paint some furniture in her child's room. I did a cute whimsical floral thing in bright colors on a piece she already had. It was a fun and easy way to revive furniture that needed a new life.
A lot of times parents go out and buy new furniture for their kids after they grow out of their crib set. Or the youngest gets the hand-me-downs from the older siblings and they get new stuff. Anyway, there's not a great selection of children's furniture out there. Most of it is plastic coated particle board that's made to look like wood. It's not sturdy and there's definitely no character in the piece.
So, think about it: kids are tough and they're usually hard on furniture. Why not use a solid wood piece you already have or buy an antique / vintage piece that's not too expensive and have it painted? Let your child have some input as well! And if you go shabby or distressed that makes it even easier to keep their furniture looking fresh because the dings and scratches will add to the patina! Cindy

Saybrook University Instructor Ruthann Russo: New Research Reveals that 86% of Patients Can be Treated with Integrative Medicine03/24/2015
Ruthann Russo, PhD, MPH, LAc, is an integrative health practitioner, consultant, and policy expert in integrative health and wellness. She teaches on an adjunct basis at Saybrook University's School of Mind-Body Medicine, where she is also earning her second PhD. This blog posting will cover Integrative Population Health Management and is Part 1 of a four-part series.
Integrative population health management is the use of integrative health modalities (IHM) to adjunctively manage chronic conditions for all patient populations. Under the Affordable Care Act, the phrase "population health management" has become the new buzzword for administering the health of the public. With this new phraseology comes a shift in responsibility – from governmental agencies to private sector healthcare systems and providers. Population health management requires that each healthcare organization step back from its current position and view its geography and the people who give life to that geography from a different perspective. It requires identifying patterns in the population – not just disease patterns – life patterns. Patterns that if managed more effectively will reduce the escalating costs and decreasing quality associated with common chronic conditions such as increased blood glucose, depression, high blood pressure, obesity, tobacco use, obesity, chronic pain, and stress.
Saybrook University Doctoral Student Applies Breath Training, Imagery, and Stretching to Life-Threatening Blood Clots03/18/2015
Introduction: Arielle Denise Dance, with an MA in Women's Health, is a PhD student in Mind-Body Medicine at Saybrook University. Diagnosed with endometriosis at 15 years old, Arielle has spent the majority of her academic career being an advocate in the women's health community focusing on topics of chronic pain, disability, and minority groups.
The Story: She couldn't breathe. " Just breathe … Deep breaths should help." She could not manage even a shallow breath without sharp pains ripping through her body. That is how Arielle Dance, second year PhD student in the MBM program, felt when she was hit with a Pulmonary Embolism for the second time in her twenties. In August 2014, after a cross country trip back to New Jersey following the Fall Residential Conference, Arielle began feeling short of breath, and experiencing severe chest and back pain. Convinced that these were signs of an asthma attack, Arielle was not prepared for all that she would endure.
Saybrook Doctoral Student Jana Downum Presents Case Report on Biofeedback for Stroke Survivors at Austin Conference03/18/2015
Jana Downum is a doctoral student in the Saybrook University School of Mind-Body Medicine. Jana presented a case report at the Association for Applied Psychophysiology amd Biofeedback annual conference in Austin, Texas on March 11 to 14 (see http://www.aapb.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=1).
Jana's Case Report, which was presented in poster form, demonstrated her effective use of heart rate variability biofeedback with one of her patients, a stroke survivor. Within the field of biofeedback, Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback is a promising new intervention technique. Jana introduced the techniques to the patient during their first session. In subsequent sessions, the patient practiced and regularly applied mindful breathing, and used HRV strategies outside of sessions in all settings. The poster presents the data, progress, and how the patient successfully achieved higher levels of difficulty within the HRV program.
Jana has been a member of the Biofeedback Society of Texas (BST) for several years and has presented at prior Annual BST Conferences. She is a biofeedback therapist at Pate Rehabilitation, in the Dallas, Texas area.

Planned Parenthood is being forced to close four of its clinics in Wisconsin after the state enacted legislation to defund businesses that perform or refer for abortions. The "family planning" group — whose affiliates nationwide performed 333,964 abortions and reported $87.4 million in profits during 2010-11 — announced that it would shutter facilities in Beaver Dam, Johnson Creek, Chippewa Falls, and Shawano over the next several months, citing a loss of $1.1 million in state funding. Wisconsin is at least the fourth state over the past two years to successfully defund Planned Parenthood and other businesses that perform abortions.
The state legislature enacted a budget for 2011-2013 that eliminates funding to family planning clinics that provide abortions or refer women to a clinic that performs the procedure. In a press conference, Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin complained that some 2,000 low-income women whom they say rely on the clinics for cancer screening, breast exams, pregnancy testing, and other services would now be left out in the cold. "They are small centers in small communities and they needed the state funding to make them financially viable," said Planned Parenthood spokesperson Teri Huyck. "It's terribly unfortunate for the women who live in these areas. Without the state support, we didn't have a choice."
Nicole Safar, director of public policy for Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin, insisted that the funding her employer lost was never used for abortions, since it is against the law to use either state or federal funds for the murderous procedure. "They weren't reimbursements for patient services directly," she said. "None of these centers provided abortion services...." She said that in the communities where the clinics closed, "there is nowhere else for low-income women to get these services. These centers focused on preventing unplanned pregnancies and reducing the need for abortions."

BRUINS 6, ISLANDERS 3 Isles Mathematically Eliminated from Playoffs
After a week of wins, and victories in five-of-six, the Islanders finally lost their 34th regulation game of the year, which was enough to put an official end to any playoff hopes. The blow came via the defending Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins, who looked the part during the third period. The teams traded goals during the first two periods but it would be an ugly third period where the Bruins scored four times — almost at will during some points — to take a 6-3 win and put them one step closer to a Northeast Division title.
Specifically, the line of Brad Marchard, Tyler Seguin and Patrice Bergeron wreaked havoc in the Islanders' zone in the third. That trio was responsible for the first three of four third period Bruins goals, a couple of which were slam dunks past Al Montoya, who has struggled lately and is being asked to close out the season in the wake of Evgeni Nabokov's injury.
For the Islanders, the first line got going again and specifically PA Parenteau continued his stellar season (insert cash register sound here). Parenteau added two goals today, both assisted by John Tavares and Matt Moulson. The third goal came from Kyle Okposo who continued to pad a career-high goal total.
The Islanders are back in action tomorrow against the Panthers at 3pm at the Coliseum. Prior to the game, Charles Wang will be interviewed on MSG during the pre-game show (full video of that on the blog as soon as we can get our hands on it).
Your highlight of the day; Micheal Haley's bout with
Colin Campbell's son Boston's Gregory Campbell.

OGDENSBURG The state Office of Mental Health missed its target date to release a plan for how it will revamp mental health care services and the role the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center will play in that plan.
OMH had originally expected by Monday to release its plan to decrease the number of inpatient psychiatric beds in the state. A statement posted on OMHs website said the plan would be released sometime the week of July 8.
OMH spokesman Benjamin Rosen said Monday afternoon that OMH still expected to release the plan this week, but he could not specifically say when. He said he could not comment on the reason for the delay.
North country officials have feared that the states reworking of its mental health delivery system could result in the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Centers closure, putting hundreds of state employees out of work and forcing patients to travel long distances for treatment.
The state is looking to change care delivery from a system OMH officials say has been too reliant on inpatient care to a model that relies heavily on community-based supports for the mentally ill. As part of the changes, OMH is looking to designate some hospitals as regional centers of excellence that will partner with hospitals, colleges and universities and community-based agencies for research and to provide care.
A task force formed to try to save the psychiatric center from closure has urged OMH officials to consider the citys hospital for a center of excellence designation.
