• Watch Johnson's Press Conference
MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin women's hockey coach Mark Johnson spoke to the media on Monday at the weekly press conference held at Camp Randall Stadium.Archived video of the media session is available through the link above, and a complete transcript of Johnson's remarks can be found below.
Coach Johnson: Certainly excited to be home. Hopefully with the Thanksgiving weekend, Friday night we'll get a nice crowd at the LaBahn arena and take on St. Cloud. Past weekend, we'd gone six games without losing and then had a setback Saturday afternoon. As I talked to my staff this morning, as we do after every weekend, what did we do well over the course of the six periods in the two games? What didn't we do well? As we get organized and ready for practice this afternoon, what can we do to get better? Friday night's game was interesting. We scored a couple of shorthanded goals, scored on a penalty shot, and ended up doing a real nice job in special teams to win the game. Saturday it was just a little bit of the opposite, where we weren't able to capitalize on our opportunities. We had quite a few of them. It seems, when we have a setback, it usually is we're not able to get the puck in on a regular basis. So look forward to the competition both Friday and Saturday afternoon against St. Cloud.Question 1: Is (Brittany) Ammerman back and playing for you or any time soon? Coach Johnson: Not right now. No, she's not cleared to practice yet. She's still not been able to compete.Question 2: Without her and obviously without your standout defenseman as well I know you don't look for excuses, what have you, but there are a couple of holes there that have been difficult to fill, correct? Coach Johnson: You can't control injuries. You don't know when they're going to come. Usually the teams that get to those final games at the end of the year probably have been generally healthy over the course of the winter. So as we approach this season, obviously, you know, a couple things are thrown at you, and you try to work around them, but if you get into the ifs game and if she was here or she was here and what not you could create some pretty good scenarios, but that's not the case. So you get ready for games, you put lineups together. You put kids in different positions, and you try to move forward. For the most part, as I look back at all our games, I'm proud of the way the team has competed. They're a group that practices hard, and for the most part, have given themselves a chance to win every game. The games that we haven't been successful in is the games we haven't been able to score goals. We went three games without scoring a goal. You look at Saturday's game against Ohio State, a game we could have won. We hit a post. You don't convert on a power play opportunity when you need to. So the little things that maybe those players that you talk about make the difference, but that's not where we're at right now because they're not on our roster and you can't utilize them. So for the most part, I'm pleased with our progress. Obviously, you like to have a few more wins, but we'll look forward to Friday afternoon and try to correct that.Question 3: Mark, people around here aren't used to you guys having four losses already. How much of it is that everybody else is getting better? Coach Johnson: Well, everybody's gotten better. Even four or five years ago where some of the teams maybe weren't as deep as they are right now present problems. So you look around the country. You look at the way the landscape has changed, similar to what you see on the men's side in WCHA we talked about that five or six years ago. That's the direction we needed to go, and we're certainly there. So it provides more grace for us. When expectations are high, obviously, when you lose a game or you lose some games, or we've lost four games up to this point, people get concerned. It's just the landscape that has changed the last couple of years, and certainly when you graduate people that have the magnitude of some of the players that we've had, those are tough kids to replace. As I mentioned, the effort's there. We've got good character kids. We're younger than we've been in the past. So with that, you have some growing pains. But the effort's been there. You give me three goals, and we probably have three more wins. Then all of a sudden, we're not talking about that.Question 4: Seems like Alev Kelter has made the move to forward pretty smoothly, hasn't she? Coach Johnson: She has. You start looking at your roster and that's not available for a good chunk of the season, or maybe the whole year, and you need to move people around. Alev has jumped up playing the forward position, playing a little power play time, and has eight goals right now. Probably could have anywhere from five, six, seven more over the course of the last couple of games, but has filled in well. Scored a great shorthanded goal to get us going Friday afternoon, and hopefully she'll continue to do those things. Question 5: So is LaBahn feeling like home now? You've had a month there. Coach Johnson: Yeah, we started the season with six games on the road. Then we played six at home. Then we go back and forth here over the last four series. Everybody's getting more comfortable. Again, it's Thanksgiving. It's a time to be thankful, and we're certainly thankful for what we have over there. I'm sure Mike can say the same thing. As we continue to practice, as we continue to go there on a daily basis, play more games, it really becomes a place that you're very fortunate to have, a place you get comfortable with, and hopefully we continue to have success there as we play more games.Question 6: Coach, you guys have won your last ten games against St. Cloud State. When you have that kind of success against a team and you're going to play them again, do you add emphasis throughout the week at practice to kind of say, look, I know we've had success, but there are no gimmes? Coach Johnson: No, we generally don't talk about things in those context. We're looking at what we can do to make improvements. Obviously, we'll work this week a little bit on our power play to try to create some more opportunities and some more chances. Again, on the offensive side, try to do some things with some of our players to try to create get some shots, look for some more scoring opportunities, and get the puck in the net. If we're able to do that, whether it's against St. Cloud or the following weekend against Minnesota then North Dakota, that's when we're going to be successful and we become a little bit more consistent with our production.

Brilliant Blackpool photo series by Garry Cook
By Garry Cook in New Photography on Tuesday 23 August 2011
If there's one place in Britain you must visit only because it represents everything this beautiful green and pleasant land is not, it's the jaded seaside resort of Blackpool.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Tennessee Department of Children's Service now says more children it had contact with died in both 2012 and 2011 than the agency earlier reported.
DCS officials said in January that 73 children who were brought to the department's attention died in 2012. The agency has corrected the figure to 105 children.
Likewise, DCS said earlier that 47 children it had contact with died in 2011, but revised that figure to 91 children.
State Sen. Jim Summerville -- a Dickson Republican -- told The Tennessean counting children shouldn't be that hard, but he hopes the latest numbers are reliable.
Newly appointed DCS Deputy Director Scott Modell said the data have been cross-checked and are now accurate.

All Parr reactors are normally equipped with open type, variable speed motors, electric heaters and controllers intended for use in non-hazardous environments. These standard units can be used in most laboratories without undue hazard, but there will be situations where the installed equipment must be considered explosion proof. Parr offers various optional stirrer drives and heating systems to meet these strict requirements. Monitoring and reporting in hazardous areas can be accomplished using Intrinsically Safe Technology. See the handbookUnderstanding Hazardous Area Sensing - Intrinsic Safetyfrom TURCK Inc. for a definition and enhanced understanding of the technology.
USA and Canadian Codes
Designing electrical equipment to be operated in hazardous location is a complex subject, governed by extensive national electrical codes and supplemented by local regulations which require that all electrical equipment installed in a governed location must be approved for use with the specific gas, vapor or dust that will be present in that location. USA and Canadian electrical codes classify hazardous locations according to the nature and concentration of specific hazardous or flammable materials. These are divided into three classes:
Class I – Flammable liquids, gases or vapors.
Class II – Combustible or electrically conductive dusts.
Class III – Easily ignitable fibers or flying particles.
There are two divisions within each of these classes.
Division 1 – Where the flammable material exists in the atmosphere under normal operating conditions.
Division 2 – Where the hazardous material is confined within a closed system from which it may be released only under abnormal conditions, such as a leak in the system.
Class I locations are further subdivided into four groups, A, B, C and D which identify specific explosive gases and vapors. Explosive dusts and fibers in Class II are subdivided into Groups E, F and G. Most hazardous applications for Parr apparatus will occur in atmospheres identified by Class I, Group A for acetylene, Group B for hydrogen and Groups C and D for most other combustible gases and vapors. Class II, Group F covers coal dust. Most other combustible dusts, such as flour and grain, are in Group G. Minimum ignition temperatures and energy levels are established for specific materials in each group.
The European Community, International Electromechanical Commission (IEC) has corresponding classifications for hazardous locations. Parr will work with all users to provide equipment compatible with their own local codes. The components in Parr reactor systems which may be considered hazardous, and the steps that can be taken to reduce or eliminate the hazards they represent, are described below.
Explosion Proof Motors
Because of sparking from brush contacts, electric motors clearly represent the principal explosion hazard introduced by a stirred reactor. Electric motors approved for Class I, Groups C and D, and Class II, Groups F and G atmospheres are readily available in most sizes and voltages. These sealed motors are suitable for most hazardous applications, and they are sometimes used with hydrogen, but they are not approved for Class B atmospheres. To meet Class B requirements, a motor must be purged by building up a positive pressure of air within the motor to prevent explosive gases or vapors from reaching electrical ignition sources. This requires a special, air purged motor which can be provided when required.
An alternate method of dealing with the explosion hazard is to use an air driven motor. These are powered by compressed air and offer a convenient and satisfactory drive system for use in flammable atmospheres, including hydrogen. They are available in sizes suitable for most Parr reactors.
Explosion Proof Heaters
The easiest way to provide an explosion proof heater is to use a steam or hot oil jacket and ensure that the highest temperature that can be reached in the jacket is well below the minimum ignition temperature for the specific hazardous atmosphere in which it will be installed. An aluminum block heater can be considered explosion proof if it has explosion proof wiring, and if it is operated with an auxiliary controller that will hold the surface temperature below a safe maximum. Electric heaters purged with clean air can also be considered explosion proof, but it is doubtful that seals can be maintained in a purged heater to provide true protection over a long period of time. Please see our Heaters page for additional information on selection.
Explosion Proof Wiring
In an explosion proof system, all electric wiring with significant voltage or current carrying capability must be routed in approved sealed conduit or in specially sealed flexible cables. All terminations and switches must be contained in approved boxes or housing. The user must provide all local wiring and connections to a power supply, and must ensure that the installation meets all requirements of the local electrical code.
Certain sensors, such as thermocouples, pressure transducers and tachometer pickups carry such low electric loads that they are a potential ignition source only in the event of a most unusual failure. In many installations these low hazard components are not seen as a problem. They can, however, be protected with isolation barriers which will make them intrinsically safe even in an unusual failure. These energy limiting electronic barriers can be provided where required.
Explosion Proof Controllers
The most commonly used method for dealing with the ignition hazard introduced by a temperature or process controller is simply to locate the controller outside of the hazardous atmosphere. Another choice is to install the controller in a cabinet which can be purged with clean air within the hazardous location.
Special Systems
Parr can furnish systems approved for use in hazardous locations up through Class I, Division 1, Group B in which specific hazardous gases will be present. Each of these formally approved systems must be designed and built on a custom basis, with all current carrying wiring and fittings installed in accordance with the requirements discussed above.Contact Us

(Allow me to preface this story with a mention that the Senate's version of the Internet piracy bill is losing momentum and that opposition to SOPA is "surging". Mr. Owens said in the editorial board interview that his position has not changed.)
Rep. William L. Owens said he doesn't believe Congress will get much done in 2012, with political races rather than policy discussions dominating the Washington agenda.
If this week is any indication, his own race won't be any exception to that rule.
His Republican opponent all but accused him of selling his vote on the open market on an anti-piracy measure. That's after a back-and-forth between Mr. Owens, D-Plattsburgh, and Republican Matthew A. Doheny over an oil pipeline that would go from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. And in an editorial board meeting with the Watertown Daily Times, Mr. Owens said the sharp and political tone he takes in fundraising e-mails isn't inconsistent with his calls for civility in Washington.
"It's two different parts of the life of an elected official," said Mr. Owens, who has labeled Mr. Doheny as a "far-right millionaire" and a "Tea Party opponent."
"I understand that that's part of the political process. That doesn't mean that when you're sitting across from somebody, you can't work with someone."
He compared it to his former life as a lawyer.
"I could be very combative with somebody, but that doesn't mean I wasn't friendly with them and couldn't play golf with them on the weekend," Mr. Owens said. "You have to be able to separate them."
After his editorial board interview, Mr. Owens had to put that theory to work. Mr. Doheny's campaign released a statement accusing Mr. Owens of "selling out his constituency" in favor of big-moneyed interests because of his support for the Stop Online Piracy Act.
In broad categories, unions and trial lawyers were among the groups that both donated to Mr. Owens and support SOPA. But unions and trial lawyers typically support Democrats, whether anti-piracy legislation is on the table or not, making the accusation a stretch.
"These allegations are absurd," Sean R. Magers, a spokesman for Mr. Owens, said in an e-mail. "Outrageous claims like these do nothing to promote a civil discussion on the issue of Internet piracy. Congressman Owens has said all along that he is open to changes that improve the bill, while still protecting intellectual property rights and American jobs."
Mr. Doheny urged Mr. Owens to withdraw his support for the bill.
"It's never too late to reconsider," Mr. Doheny said in a news release. "I hope that my opponent wakes up today and remembers he's in office to represent his constituents, not the special interests that plow his campaign coffers with money."
The Stop Online Piracy Act, sponsored in the House by Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, is aimed at curbing foreign websites that host stolen content such as full movies, songs or fake prescriptions. But the bill has been criticized as giving the Department of Justice and private companies too much leeway over whether to shut down those sites. Mr. Owens is a sponsor of the bill and has said he is open to changes, particularly in the way in which a site can appeal the decision to cut off access to it.
Mr. Smith has scheduled public hearings for February, Mr. Owens said.
"It seems like a perfectly reasonable process," said Mr. Owens, whose office, Facebook page and Twitter feed have been clogged with messages from people who oppose SOPA. "What happened yesterday was democracy in action."
Mr. Owens said many of the bill's opponents haven't offered their own solution.
"They were simply objecting, in essence saying … it should all be free," Mr. Owens said. Opponents, including callers to his office, said: " 'We should be able to access content anytime we want,' completely ignoring the other side of this discussion."
The other side, Mr. Owens said, is the harm that pirating content has on the American economy.
But opponents of the measure actually have come forward with an alternative. One bill would give the U.S. International Trade Commission the jurisdiction to decide whether a site is guilty. Mr. Doheny supports this bill, which its supporters describe as less intrusive to Internet providers.
"Rep. Darrell Issa's Online Protection and Enforcement of Digital Trade Act, although still evolving, is a step in the right direction," Mr. Doheny said in an e-mailed news release. "It gives greater enforcement powers to the United States International Trade Commission and limits rogue websites' ability to profit off their illegal activity while ensuring access to legitimate websites."
But Mr. Owens said it wasn't good enough.
"In looking at it, it doesn't seem to me that it's addressing the issue of how you protect those content providers," Mr. Owens said. "This is going to be a very difficult balance to strike, there's no doubt in my mind."
Mr. Owens also defended himself from Mr. Doheny's accusations that he was a "loyal servant" to President Obama on the Keystone XL oil pipeline that would go from Canada to the Gulf Coast.
Mr. Obama's administration nixed the idea this week. And Mr. Owens voted against a bill that would have moved the project along.
Case closed? Not close.
He supports the pipeline, which he said would help keep the price of oil down, and voted for it in other instances. He only voted against it because it was part of a bill that dealt with a number of other subjects — including a Medicare cut to hospitals.
"You're doing this all the time," he said, waving his hands to demonstrate a balance. "You end up saying, this particular situation, I like one, three and five, but I don't like two, four and six."
Mr. Owens portrayed the legislation as a "messaging bill" — whose only purpose was to make Democrats like him look bad by choosing between the lesser of two evils. Had he voted for the bill, he would have voted for a Medicare cut. He'd have been criticized either way.
"From my perspective, that was just a messaging bill that the Republicans were putting out," Mr. Owens said.
There's much more of that to come, Mr. Owens warned.
The only major piece of legislation Mr. Owens expects to get done is an extension of the payroll tax cut, which expires on Feb. 29. He's not sure how long it will be extended or how long the unemployment benefits will last — he's hoping for about 80 weeks with tweaks to the program to help people get back to work.
Mr. Owens said the lame-duck session after the elections will be more productive, and Democratic victories would also help. The Republicans hold a 242-192 edge in the House. The Senate is controlled by Democrats, as is the White House.
"The only way this whole situation changes is if the majority in the House narrows," Mr. Owens said. "And then that will force people to actually have to negotiate, irrespective of which side is in the majority."

Breast Reconstruction Advantages
On November 17, 2006, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approved the availability and use of silicone gel-filled breast implants for breast reconstruction in women of all ages.
While 80 percent of women who undergo breast implant surgery do so for cosmetic reasons, some choose implants because they lost one or both breasts to disease or injury. When a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer, her physicians may recommend that she undergo a mastectomy, or removal of the breast, to remove the cells that caused her breast cancer.
Dealing with cancer is an incredible physical and emotional challenge. Cancer that takes away one's secure feelings about her femininity and sexuality makes the experience even more difficult. Thanks to technological advances in surgery and science, women who undergo a mastectomy can have a new breast made either from an implant or their own (autologous) tissue.
Whether performed immediately following a mastectomy or at a later time, breast reconstruction can dramatically improve a woman's appearance, self-confidence, and quality of life. Studies show that immediate reconstruction does not delay post-operative chemotherapy, prolong recovery, or hinder the diagnosis of local cancer recurrence.

Document Number: 3077Attention Disorder Drugs: Few Incidents of Diversion or Abuse Identified by Schools - At Congressional request, the General Accounting Office has provided information and analysis on (1) the diversion and abuse of attention deficit disorder drugs in public schools, (2) the school environment in which the drugs are administered to students and (3) the state laws or regulations addressing the administration of prescription drugs in schools. Concern has arisen that the increasing use of medications in school might provide additional opportunities for drug abuse, however, middle and high school principals reported little diversion or abuse of attention disorder drugs. Thirty-seven states and the District of Columbia have either statutes, regulations or mandatory policies addressing the administration of medication to students.

Mother charged in January 2011 death of infant son in Stuart
STUART — The mother of a 3-month-old who died in January 2011 from a head injury has been charged in connection with the child's death, according to the Stuart Police Department.
Police on Wednesday charged Skyler French, 20, with being an accessory after the fact to felony murder and child neglect in the Jan. 28, 2011, death of her son, Bryson Guadagno.
French, whose address was not available, was indicted by a grand jury on Wednesday. She is being held without bail at the Martin County Jail, according to a Police Department news release.
Police in July charged French's boyfriend, Charles William Dowell Jr., 24, of the 8700 block of Southeast Jardin Street in Hobe Sound, with first-degree murder and aggravated battery in Bryson's death.
The 13-page police investigative report noted that the child had fatal skull fractures, bruising from the top of his head to the base of his neck, detached retinas, broken legs and hemorrhaging on his right elbow and right ankle.
Exactly how the child was injured is unclear, as Dowell and French gave differing accounts, including a fall from a bed and the child hitting his head during a bath, the report states.
The District 19 Medical Examiner's Office determined the child died from blunt head trauma and ruled the death a homicide, the release states.
On Jan. 26, 2011, according to the report, Dowell was alone with the child for up to an hour when French took her sister to night classes. When French returned from dropping her sister off, she noticed the child was fussy during a bath so she put him down for bed, the report states. Later, when she checked on him, she noticed the child was wheezing and trying to catch his breath.
Instead of taking the child to the hospital, Dowell and French went to pick up her sister from night classes.
French said she wanted to see whether the child's condition would improve, the report states.
Surveillance records show the mother and Dowell entered Martin Medical Center at 8:39 p.m. They did not tell staff they had an emergency, but signed in and waited, the report states.
Hospital records showed the child had a temperature of 101.4 degrees and his legs were extended and stiff, with pupils dilated, sluggish and almost nonreactive.
At 9:50 p.m., the child was flown to St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach, where he died two days later after being removed from life support, the report states.

Karen Gatlin's mother is a breast cancer survivor. So is Patsy Moore's. John Diaz lost an aunt to breast cancer, but his mother and grandmother are both survivors. Darlene Scott is a survivor, too. Jack Forrest's mother is also a survivor, but he lost an aunt and a grandmother to breast cancer.
With more than 207,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer in women occurring in 2010 alone,* many of us at Remington College know someone who has been affected. And it's not just a women's issue – it affects men as well.
The Susan G. Komen Foundation and others are helping to teach us more about how to prevent or reduce the risk of breast cancer, detect it early, manage its effects, and find a cure. And the news is encouraging: Breast cancer death rates are decreasing. As of September 2010, there are more than 2½ million breast cancer survivors in the U.S.*
With October designated as breast cancer awareness (BCA) month, many of us at the corporate offices and campuses took time out to remember those whose lives have been lost to breast cancer, and to celebrate those who are proud survivors.
Here's a sampling of the Remington College BCA events and activities held this past October:
Remington College in Baton Rouge and Cleveland Campus Cosmetology students offered $5 haircuts during different weeks in October as part of their "Cuts for Cause" program, with the proceeds benefitting the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Baton Rouge raised $340.00 from 68 haircuts, while Cleveland raised $353.50 from 19 haircuts and 52 hairstyles.
Remington College of Nursing students and staff in Lake Mary, Florida, participated in "Pink Day @ RCON" with outdoor activities and watched a video related to breast cancer awareness.
Remington College in Colorado Springs designed a bulletin board that included information about breast cancer myths and facts to help increase cancer awareness and survivorship rates.
Remington College's Administrative Offices, in Heathrow, Florida, created a remembrance wall on October 5 that stood through the end of the month so that people could post the names of family members who are breast cancer survivors or who have lost their lives to the disease. Members of every department were also sure to wear pink that day to increase breast cancer awareness and show their support of the cause.
Remington College in Webster, Texas (Houston Southeast) students, faculty and staff wore pink accents with their school or work uniforms on October 27 to support the cause.
Little Rock, Arkansas staffer Donna Satterwhite walked with her two daughters in the 5K "Race for the Cure" in downtown Little Rock on October 16 to support and raise funds for breast cancer research and education.
Remington College in Mobile Medical Assisting students dressed in pink on October 14 to support the breast cancer awareness and education.
Remington College in Memphis collected $2,000 for the "Race for the Cure" through donations, a Blue Jeans Day on Campus, and a "Paint Your Nails Pink" Day. About 78 faculty, staff, and family members also walked in a 5K "Walk for the Cure" on October 30.
Remington College in Nashville organized a bake sale on campus, and students and staff walked or ran in the "Race for the Cure" event in Nashville on October 9. Total funds raised were $550, to benefit the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
Remington College in Tampa had Cosmetology students offer manicures and scalp massages during a "Day of Pampering" on October 2 to increase women's health awareness. This was presented by the Florida Breast and Cervical Cancer early detection program, the Hillsborough County Health Department's Community Health Division, and Moffitt Cancer Center.
Our college in Tampa also held a Zumbathon sponsored by Personal Fitness Trainer students and staff on October 9.
Breast cancer touches so many families that make up the big Remington College family. The events featured here, along with other activities held around our campus communities, represent hope for the future – and hope for a cure for this devastating disease.

Eddie Izzard Tells 'The Green Room' That He Wants to Be a Politician (VIDEO)
Izzard stunned his fellow comics by announcing that he's going to run for political office.
He said that the comedy environment that's been fostered in the US and the UK means that "you can be comic philosophers where you just put out your idea of where things should go or what things should be or whatever. I think people want to listen to a voice."
As such, he explained his decision to enter politics. He said that in 2020 he'll either run for Mayor of London, or stand for election as an MP either in the UK or the European Parliament. While most of his fellow guests agreed he could win, and might even do well at it, Jimmy Carr couldn't understand it at all.
A Husband's Wine-Drenched Dreams Dashed on 'The Marriage Ref' (VIDEO)
Robert didn't have the qualifications to run a vineyard, but he did have two other guys who also knew nothing about vineyards who he could hire to work the place. Robert figured he was fine, and Stephanie obviously disagreed. "He started a garden this year in our backyard and we wound up reaping six jalapeno peppers and a three hundred dollar water bill because he kept on forgetting to turn off the sprinkler," she lamented.
Judah Friedlander on '30 Rock' and 'How To Beat Up Anybody'
"I was hoping we were going to get a 1:30AM slot, but I'll settle for the 10PM slot," he said. "I think they should just keep moving us around, keep Americal guessing. Why settle in on one timeslot that works?
"Yeah, (the timeslot) sounds stupid," he continued. "But it's not an issue because everyone acts like, 'This is the new schedule and its set in stone.' No, the schedule was 8:30 and they changed it; they'll change it again. If the new lineup ain't working, they'll just shuffle the timeslots. That's the way TV is. That stuff is out of your hands."
After a few rounds of e-mail and phone tag, and a perusal of his very funny book, I was able to get Friedlander back on the phone to talk more about the show and his book, where his "World Champion" persona shows the reader how to beat up everyone from roving gangs to Bigfoot.
Judah Friedlander Explains Karate on 'Daily Show' (VIDEO)
When Stewart pronounced the martial art as "ka-ra-TAY", the '30 Rock' actor countered, "This is America. It's KU-ra-dy." Stewart played along, saying, "I meant no disrespect ... I know that [karate is] about controlling physicality and emotion, and I don't want to get you riled up."
Friedlander replied, "Actually, it's about beating people up." The "World Champion of the World" then explained how he "learned" his karate skills -- in a Chinese prison at the tender age of 12.
Jimmy Fallon Celebrates His First Anniversary Tonight
Tonight he celebrates his first anniversary, and his guests will be Robert Pattinson (I'm sure they'll talk about this regular segment), '30 Rock's' Judah Friedlander, and chef Mario Batali. Note: Hall & Oates were supposed to perform on the show tonight, but they had to cancel due to the sudden death of their bassist T-Bone Wolk. Wolk was also the bassist for 'Saturday Night Live' over the years. Mario Batali will take their place, though I doubt he will be playing "Kiss On My List."
Review: 30 Rock - Secret Santa
(S04E08) "Those sites are for horny married chicks with kids who want to exchange pervy e-mails with their old high school boyfriends." - Liz, about YouFace
I'm glad to see Danny back on the show. He hasn't been on that much (if at all) since being hired as the new cast member, and I thought it was going to be another one of those things where we don't see him again even though he's supposed to be on TGS still. But didn't you want to hear him sing normally during the TGS Christmas show? I didn't back Pete's plan to try to make Jenna angry (really, who wants that?) and it would have been a nice, Christmas-y ending for Danny and Jenna to sing well at the end and Jenna be OK with it. Instead, we got Jenna placated yet again and Pete going crazy. Eh.
Still, it was great that they got Cheyenne Jackson's singing in the show in a couple of scenes. Maybe in a later episode fans will find out that he's actually good.
Review: 30 Rock - Dealbreakers Talk Show #0001
(S04E07) "It still counts!" - Whoopi Goldberg, on her Daytime Emmy
I wonder how 30 Rock will handle today's deal with Comcast. I'm sure Tina Fey and the rest of the writers are already working on an episode or two about the takeover. They've already had a plot this season about budget cuts and other network moves, and I think this could be one of those weird times where a real-life event is closely tied into a fictional TV show and can actually re-energize the show in some way. That's going to be an interesting plot to watch.
Of course, the real question is, how will all of this affect the Sheinhardt Wig Company?
30 Rock: Season 4 (season premiere)
(S04E01) "We'll trick those race-car loving wide-loads into watching your lefty homoerotic propaganda hour yet!" - Jack
One of the many, many reasons 30 Rock is one of my favorite shows is because it's well aware of its own world. For example, one of the running jokes tonight was about Josh (Lonny Ross). I spent most of the last two seasons wondering where Josh was. He'd make a cameo here and there, but he's been pretty much missing since the first season. Liz and Jack talked about this tonight when Jack revealed that TGS needed a new cast member and Liz wondered about Josh's popularity on the show. Jack said "Oh, that's right, Josh. I forgot about that guy. You think that's a good sign?"
For the record, Josh was indeed in this episode, for a few seconds. He quit and then attempted to tip over the table when he found out a new person was coming on to the show.
30 Rock: Goodbye, My Friend
Holy crap, Josh was in this episode! Sure, he only had one line and wasn't on screen for too long, but Josh was in this episode! It's good to see that he's still a writer on this show (and that Lonny Ross is still a member of the cast).
It's also good to see a TV show whose plot is based around the 1987 film Harry and the Hendersons. There aren't enough TV shows based on the 1987 film Harry and the Hendersons.
The hat making process on 30 Rock revealed
The baseball caps that Judah wears in every show -- and you never see him sans-hat -- are his own creation. It's a shtick that he began nearly two decades ago. "I've been making my own hats for years. I've been doing stand-up for 19 years and my hats have always said world champion in some language." See, the joke is that he's not the world champion of anything. Now, as one of the writers on TGS, Judah tailors his hats to the individual episode. Some are obvious jokes, some are in-jokes, nothing is accidental or unplanned.
Dr. Phil is not a sexy man
Every year, The Boston Phoenix publishes a list of the 100 Unsexiest Men of the Year, where they judge 100 males involved in everything from sports to politics to the internet. They always include several TV faces (and other body parts), and this year they've included a cartoon character.
No, not Dr. Phil, though he is a bit of a cartoon. The "doctor" is on the list, but the cartoon character I'm talking about is Quagmire, from Family Guy. The Phoenix sends a note to creator Seth MacFarlane that "nothing screams hilarity like jokes about date rape!" Giggity.
30 Rock: Cougars
(S02E07) "Where did you two meet, an Amber Alert?" - Jack, to Liz
On a night when almost everything else I watch is a repeat, it's great - comforting even - to see that there's a new 30 Rock. It's truly one of the very few shows that I look forward to so much that I actually get slightly bummed out when it's a repeat. It has become "that sitcom from the woman who used to be on Saturday Night Live and will probably be canceled" to a new classic. It's monumentally funny and is still running on all cylinders. It's the best comedy on TV right now. And that's my review. The end.
No, just kidding. There's more...
30 Rock live at the UCB Theatre
According to accounts of the show -- most notably, from Rachel Sklar at the Huffington Post and Dan Hopper at the Best Week Ever blog -- every major member of the cast, including Alec Baldwin, was at the reading. An upcoming episode was read for the audience, and Tina Fey asked that the audience members not divulge the plot of that episode because "this show is like Heroes and we don't want to ruin it for everyone else."
30 Rock season two -- An early look - VIDEO
First the apology, then the early look.
Dear Tina,
I've always liked 30 Rock, but I've never loved it. Maybe it was because my concentration was on Studio 60 or maybe it was because I wasn't in the right frame of mind when I watched the pilot. Or maybe I just didn't try to get into it because Thursday nights are really jam-packed (would it upset you to tell you that I watch Ugly Betty too?). I just never gave the show a chance to grow on me, though I did enjoy Alec Baldwin's performance as Jack.

MINNEAPOLIS - A great year for outdoor ice has taken a precipitous turn, thanks to steady rain and temperatures above freezing.
On Friday the city of Minneapolis announced that all the outdoor city ice rinks are now closed, at least temporarily, due to the unseasonable conditions.
The rinks will be reopened as soon as weather allows. Those wishing to check on the status of their rink or park can log on to a special page on the city's website.

We investigated natural populations of three Japanese native bumblebee species to determine the status of infestation by a tracheal mite, Locustacarus buchneri, which we had earlier detected in introduced commercial colonies of the European bumblebee, Bombus terrestris. We also investigated mite infestation in commercial colonies of a Japanese native species, B. ignitus, which are mass-produced in the Netherlands and reimported into Japan. We detected the mite in both natural and commercial colonies of the Japanese species. Comparison of 555 bp sequences of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome oxidase 1 (CO1) gene from the mite showed that there were seven haplotypes, on the basis of combinations of substitutions at eight sites in the gene. The haplotypes of the mites in the Japanese native bumblebees and the haplotypes of the mites in B. terrestris did not overlap; however, mtDNA of mites detected in the commercial colonies of B. ignitus possessed the same sequence as a European haplotype. These results indicate that transportation of bumblebee colonies will cause overseas migration of parasitic mites of different origins.

When did we stop trying?
I get so many comments on this blog and on other social platforms in response to projects I share that go a little something like this: "I wish I could do that too", or "If I (insert excuse here) I could do that". I just have one question... When did so many of us stop trying??
People often wonder how I do so many things... and believe me, I know I do such a variety of things! The thing is though, I love to try to do new things. I love the challenge of learning how to do something. I am always eager to jump into the next project or pull up a YouTube tutorial if I'm curious about how to create something. It's not like I was born with magical powers that allow me to tackle anything you place in front of me or something, it's just that I TRY. I see things, and I wonder how they are made. If somebody else could make it, what's stopping me from learning how to as well?
I learned how to crochet a couple of weeks ago. This idea came from the simple thought that I wanted to make my own cute little amigurumi creature. Why? I don't know, I just wanted to. I got myself some hooks and yarn, and pulled up Google and YouTube. Which, by the way, is pretty much all you need if you want to learn how to do something. A couple weeks later, here I am with a new skill, four amigurumi animals, a slouchy hat, and fingerless gloves. All because I TRIED.
This got me thinking about everybody who doesn't try to learn new things... and it makes me sad. If you're curious about something, you should teach yourself about it. Our brains need to stay active, they yearn to be filled up with new knowledge every day. Most importantly though, the feeling of accomplishment that comes with mastering a task is by far one of the best ways to stay motivated and keep your spirits up.
I get emails from people sometimes asking me how to do things that could have easily been answered if they took the time and did a quick Google search. While I like to help people out when I have the time, sometimes I can't help but wonder why they aren't just looking for this information on their own. I mean, that's what I would do regardless. Asking me to share information that I spent the time to learn myself would be unnecessary if they actually had the desire to become educated on the topic.
So why are people afraid to try? Is it a fear of failure? Are they too busy? Being busy never stopped me... (quite frankly that is the oldest excuse in the book)... and failure? There is no such thing if you try. What could be more important than your own pride? Than the new education you instilled in yourself from completing a new project?
I guess all I'm saying here is that people shouldn't be so quick to deny a task or to say that there is no way they would be able to do something. There is no way you would ever know that you could do something if you don't even give it a shot. It's not like looking for information is a special talent! Just like I said in the image above, anyone can do anything if they try, and I truly believe that, and you should too.
I encourage you all to try to learn more things in the new year. What is something you've been wanting to learn how to do?

Dana, that amigurumi is so cute! Are you going to be selling those in your shop at some point?ReplyDelete
I also want to say that you have been a huge inspiration to me and I want to thank you for it! For those of us who are skittish and afraid it's really amazing to see someone who is so creative, not afraid to put herself out there and who likes to learn and tackle new things. It truly is an inspiration. I even wrote about it on my blog...not sure if you had seen it! So thank you, because I would have been too afraid to pursue my dreams without your excellent example. Now I realize that life is short and we only get one, why waste it being afraid?
Aw, that is so cute! I'm going to learn how to crochet in the New Year, am super excited as it is something I've always wanted to do.ReplyDelete
People def should not be afraid to try new things just because they worry they won't be that great at it. Because can you imagine what would happen if we all did that? Ohmy.
You are so right! I used to think certain things were out of my skillset, but that doesn't mean I'm not allowed to try and see where it takes me. I've been thinking lately about projects I want to set goals for in 2013, mainly learning Photoshop, learning to cross stitch, and turn some of my photography into recycled notebooks.ReplyDelete
I just started reading you recently and love your blog!
Well put, Dana.ReplyDelete
I think part of the issue is somewhere along the line (for me this happened in high school), many of us were taught that pursing the arts was a waste of time because we weren't inherently skilled in those areas... so at some point along the line, people start saying "I wish I could do that..." instead of saying "I am going to try that!" because they've internalized that message that it's a waste of their time because they might not be good at it right off the bat.
This made me smile. :)ReplyDelete
It's so true. Google is probably my best friend; when I get frustrated with a piece of HTML or I want go learn a new word, I end up on there for hours. There's no reason not to give something a shot (unless its day trading or gambling which could seriously dent your wallet!) I just reviewd my new year's resolution list from last year and I managed to finish most of it with a little patience, effort, and budgeting.

I sometimes have people say the same thing to me when I share my crochet projects. I had so many people say "I wish I could crochet" that I actually put together a huge list of links to youtube videos so they could teach themselves with the same videos I found helpful. There's only so much you can do for someone. It's all on them.ReplyDelete
But I have to add that for learning a few weeks ago, your amigurumi guy looks amazing! My first few amigurumis looked like something a 3 year old made lol!
Trying new things is one of my favorite things to do too. But don;t discredit yourself! That crocheted little guy is so well done! You tried, and you pretty much mastered crocheting in such a short time!ReplyDelete
I think the biggest stumbling block to many people is thinking they don't have the time to invest in learning a new skill, or just assuming that they won't be good and don't have the time to practice and practice until they're "good" at it. I'm planning to learn how to knit (for real). I sort of learned to make a scarf for my daughter with Sashay yarn/fabric, but I kind of just muddled my way through it. I want to be able to know that I can pick up some needles, yarn and a pattern and go to town. Considering that it really wasn't that long ago I was just learning to crochet and now I can pretty much follow any pattern, I'm very hopeful for success.ReplyDelete
Your bear is adorable. Great job!
Dana you are exactly right about this! I think some people aren't curious about how things are made, or whether they can do it themselves. I don't know where it came from, but I grew up believing I could do anything, and that's what I encourage in my children. This year I'm going to become a runner so I can run through Paris in May, an anniversary/family vacation we've been saving for. I can't imagine a better way to see Paris, so that's what I'm going to do! And I'm going to finally master Photoshop.ReplyDelete
Amen. Your really hit this sorry subject right on the head. I started selling stuff on etsy about a year ago and no one was there to guide me through it. I have had such a successful year and the most annoying thing I get from people is... how did you do it, is it worth it. One girl had told me, I know I could look up all this on google but I figured I would ask you instead. I mean I am always down to help people out but goodness... do people think it's just handed to you. I worked my butt off night and day trying to figure out what I know just to hand it off to someone else? I'm so glad you posted this. It's not about not wanting to share knowledge with people it's about people trying!ReplyDelete
Anyway I currently got a handful of business books on growing my biz off of amazon and that's what I am trying to learn now. I love learning but most importantly teaching myself.
You are very talented though! I think it takes a strong will and a good spirit to tackle anything you want to and some people just don't have that. That doesn't mean there aren't other things that they are great at though. :)
I love this post, Dana. Thank you so much for the challenge and the encouragement to pursue what we want to learn! This is awesome. xo also I think the problem is that we are a generation of instant satisfaction, so we want to know how to do things NOW and if we don't know how, we find someone who can.ReplyDelete
cute little creatures! I want to take up knitting again, this post has pushed me to stop procrastinating and go and do it!ReplyDelete
People are full of excuses, I know I am. But I think Nikkiana makes a very valid point...from childhood we are told we can do anything but really it means to do what you are good at and forgo the rest. And when you do take the plunge to try something new? You want to truly be good at it before you show and share it with the world. That being said this was a great piece and has given me food for thought with what I would like to try for 2013!ReplyDelete
I feel the same way when people ask me how I lost weight. Yes, I did ask another friend if he had any tips, but after he passed on a really great website to me, I did the rest of the work and figured out what would work best for me, and I also had a cheerleader through my friend. The people that ask me about my weight loss can say they're too busy to work out or figure out a plan, but the truth is, they just don't want to do it, or they're not ready to do it.ReplyDelete
This post was so inspiring. I'm definitely one of those people who has trouble motivating them-self to learn new things because I hate the feelings of failure. Thank you for giving me that little kick in the butt to try harder ;)ReplyDelete
xo TJ
I get a bit sick of people saying to me "you're so talented!" when really it's not talent but determination to teach myself a new craft! So many people say "I wish I could do that!" but don't actually give it a shot! The world would be a brighter, happier place if everyone gave up on the defeatist attitude (yes, I get the irony of that sentence)and had a go at something they long to master! Life's too short for wishing instead of doing!ReplyDelete
I think some people who say "I wish I could do that" are admiring a skill set, but don't necessarily want to invest the time/money/energy into it. In a perfect world, I wish I could do woodwork and metal stamping, but I've tried both of those, like seriously put in effort, and neither of those have worked out for me; so I admire other people's work and wish I could do that but understand that I am talented in other things. Not saying that I wouldn't try either woodworking or stamping again, it's just not my forte. Personally, I would email a blogger for more information about a project because they've done it and would be able to point me in the right direction or share some insider tips but mostly to create a rapport with that person - blogging is all about connecting with other people.ReplyDelete
That being said, I do agree with you that people shouldn't be so defeatist and underestimate themselves, because by trying they could discover a talent and a passion they never knew they had. Here's to 2013 and trying new things :)
What a great post. It really struck a cord with me as this week I learnt to snowboard on a trip to Canda and I never thought I could ever do something like that! What an awesome feeling it was. I am not an 'extreme sports' or adventure kinda girl, so for me to do something like that (on the slopes at Whistler) made me feel pretty proud and gave me a confidence to feel like I can achieve anything if I have a good mindset. I told myself I wouldn't give up if I found it hard and I would not get frustrated. When I was stuck on my butt for 20 mins trying to get up on my board (and my bf thought I was lost in the snow!!) I kept telling myself "I can do this". In my mind, there is no such word as can't.ReplyDelete
And we looked at youtube videos before we went! :)
Congrats on your new crochet skills. I learnt this year too and it is so fantastic to see others catching the crochet bug.

Love this post.ReplyDelete
I think that as artists, we tend to have what I call ADHD. I find myself starting, stopping, getting into multiple thing. I think that this is good in a sense and makes life very interesting to allow yourself to be free to do whatever!
I am not sure if people really do believe that they 'can't' do something. I think most people really just DONT think about it. I have learned over the years that not everyone aspires to do great things or even has the mind capacity to imagine these things. For people like you and others, and I included, I think its our imagination that constantly leads us to great things. I guess that's why there are those who are really successful and out there for a reason. Take it as a blessing. Some people I think mentally have that block and really cant do what you do which is why people say, "how did you...?"
xo, N
Amen ! :DReplyDelete
When I do something interesting, and people are like "how do you do that?" (as though I'm some sort of otherworldly being), I'm just like, "um, I put time and effort into learning how." I'm not magic.
I think people have this inaccurate notion about talent. They think it exists in some individuals, who can effortlessly spin straw into gold like Rumpelstiltskin. They don't realize that, while some people do pick up new skills quickly, talent is developed through hard work and patience.
I wish more people would see the diligence behind the great-artist-slash-seamstress-slash-whoever-makes-cool-stuff. Cause then maybe they wouldn't give up so easily, and realize that with determination you can learn to do way more than you think. :)
Anyway, love the post, Dana.
So true Dana!!ReplyDelete
Perhaps its something to do with the fact we're living in an instant culture, people want everything now and have zero patience to learn what it takes to make, x,y,z or whatever it is they want.
My mother calls me all the time and if I say something like "Oh I made this the other day!" Her response is always "How?" and my answer is always "Google it, GOOGLE IT!" - Like you its how I learn many things or source information, so I can never understand when people don't empower themselves to learn more via this method or hey, even a good ole booky wooky!!!
This is a great motivational post xxxReplyDelete
I normally am not afraid to try, it is just I am enamored with trying to figure out all of my other things at the same time and don't focus on one thing. I have embroidered projects, sewing projects, paintings, etc all waiting for me to finish. I start something, and then start something new!ReplyDelete
I love reading this post. It make me think about my resolutions for the new year and I think at some point we began to be so focus on the result that we lost the confidence to just try. Because we are creatures afraid of failure, but the truth is we definetely wont be anything if we dont try.ReplyDelete
Thank you for this post! It covers what's been bothering me when people say "you've obviously got too much time on your hands," when I create something awesome. When did it become ok to spend absolutely no time devoted to anything beyond TV or the internet?! People are crazy - but it makes me happy to know that there are those of us who still want to create and explore!ReplyDelete
1. I don't know how to put on eyes like that nd generally just embroider or sew on felt eyes. I'm jealous!ReplyDelete
2. You should consider making a little monster for Sandy Hook. I blogged about it here: http://sharylovesyou.blogspot.com/2012/12/600-monsters-strong-for-connecticut.html
a perfect new year's lesson. i resolve to try!ReplyDelete
I'm so with you! I think part of the issue is that people aren't committed to enjoying the process, they're too obsessed with having a perfect product, and so by default they will not enjoy learning, because you never start with a perfect product. I wonder if they all had helicopter parents or what?ReplyDelete

I started collecting beautiful silver from Mexico a few years back, as I find it makes a stunning table setting any time of year. When we were introduced to Beatriz Ball's brilliant designs, I was smitten. Each exquisite piece is made completely by hand (in fact 12 pairs of hands are needed to create one) using ancient sand-casting techniques. The aluminum never needs polishing and can go from oven to table. When I entertain, I like to dazzle my guests, so I always include an item from Beatriz Ball's elegant collection when setting the table. -JG
Handmade and carefully handpolished, this aluminum oval tray from Mexico is both decorative and practical. Ideal to chill foods, or warm up to 325 degrees. Easy care, never tarnish. Handwash, no dishwasher. Do not store food, or leave in standing water. Avoid cutting on surface. 21" x 9 1/2" x 2".
Other sizes and shapes available by special order, please contact customer service for assistance.

"In a world of mass production, handmade is the true luxury," says Beatriz Ball, creator of the Beatriz Ball Collection. She began working hand-in-hand with talented metal ware artisans on the outskirts of Mexico City in 1991. Together they created innovative designs using the ancient art of sand casting and incorporating a premium quality alloy of molten aluminum. Each handmade piece goes through four levels of polishing and reflects the creativity of the artist who designed it and the skill of the craftsmen who manufacture it.
