Tim McGraw plans to release a new album this spring. While it's always a possibility that he and wife Faith Hill will record another duet, he won't go into the studio with her just because he happens to be married to an incredible vocalist.
"We don't wanna just go cut a song to be cuttin' a song together," he said. "I think it sort waters down what we do, not as a family or as a couple, but what we do as a singing couple. I don't want to water that down or try to do something that's just for fun or not necessarily for something that means something. I think it's about finding the right song as much as anything. There's other factors, but I think that's the biggest factor."
Tim has released "Lookin' For That Girl," the lead single from his upcoming album, to radio and iTunes. He will launch his Sundown Heaven Town Tour in May.

Daniel Cormier is a great fighter.
With only two fights and wins to his credit in the UFC, the Olympic level wrestler has managed to make his presence felt within the brand and his name known to an ever growing crew of fans.
Since his joining the promotion in 2013, Cormier has forced his name into the title contention status in both the heavyweight and light-heavyweight divisions and now stands to make his debut in the latter.
On February 22, "DC" will square off against number three ranked Rashad Evans, in a fight that may land either in contender status. The duo anchors the co-main event at UFC 170 in Las Vegas and in lead-up to the fight, Cormier (today) spent some time with the media answering questions.
Of the things he said, the most notable was the he believes Rashad Evans to be a bigger threat to beating him, than division champion Jon Jones would be. Although not disrespecting the champ, indeed he feels he's as "dominant" a champion as Cain Velasquez is, he does nonetheless, feel that Evans is a tougher match-up. In short, DC feels that Rashad is more dynamic and has more ways of finishing a fight.
As Cormier put it:
"I've trained with Rashad (Evans) before; you know he's felt me before. He's got a different set of skills than Jones, obviously. I think Rashad is actually a little more difficult to takedown for me, than it would be for a guy with longer limbs. I don't mind wrestling a guy with long limbs. I think it works to my advantage, because I can get to their legs. Rashad doesn't kick as much; kicking actually feeds your opponent the leg. Jon kicks more, so that's easier to grab takedowns. And ah, ah you know, Rashad is just, he's a more dynamic type of fighter, like in terms of one punch knockout power. He has more than Jones does. Explosiveness, he's a little faster in that sense, whereas Jon is more of a, Jon is, he's great, but he works at his pace, he fights at his pace, you know, he doesn't really, I mean I don't know that he's ever put anyone out on his feet. You know, its submissions and he gets on top and he kind of pounds guys out, well that's one tool that goes out the window with me, because he can't score a takedown."
In terms of his move down to light-heavyweight, Cormier stated that his friendship with heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez played a part in the decision, but that he also made the move because he wanted to start living "healthier" and that the move to 205 was the right thing to do for both his size and career.
Regarding the pros and cons of the move, Cormier stated that there are advantages and disadvantages to the move. He feels that he loses in the speed and size categories, but gains in the cardio. However, DC feels that what he gains, which is the ability to fight the way he wants, outweighs any negatives.
As Cormier remarked upon it as such:
"I think I lose the speed advantage that I had at heavyweight, more than anything I think the guys are going to be faster. I'm not going to be any taller, the guys are still going to be taller than I am, there still going to be bigger, I'm just not going to be as fast as the guys that I was fighting before."
"I've gained more cardio; the ability to go harder. And I think that I couldn't really fight the way I wanted to at heavyweight, because the size was so different. Whereas, if you watch Cain (Velasquez) fight he can just get in their face as long as he wants, I think I'll be able to do that against 205 pound guys. I think I lose the speed advantage that I had at heavyweight, more than anything I think the guys are going to be faster. I'm not going to be any taller, the guys are still going to be taller than I am, there still going to be bigger, I'm just not going to be as fast as the guys that I was fighting before.
Regarding the pros and the cons, fans are apt to agree with DC's assessment. Although there will be fighters in the division that are still taller, bigger and faster than he is, his increased cardio and ability to set a pace should offset any downside to the drop in weight.
Either way, it should be an interesting fight and not one that Evans should be written out of. As Cormier said of Evans, he has great hands and KO power, and is a solid grappler. He may well have the tool set to upset Cormier's debut at 205.
For the rest of the interview, hit play.

(Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images)Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, the man who has been publicly identified as being behind the Manti Te'o girlfriend hoax, admitted to deceiving the Heisman Trophy finalist in December, according to a friend in an Outside the Lines report, via ESPN.com.The friend, a woman in her mid-20s who knew Tuiasosopo from church, agreed to be interviewed by Outside the Lines under the condition that she not be identified, saying she was fearful for her family's safety because of the overwhelming publicity the story has generated. She did allow for her voice to be recorded by Outside the Lines.(Click here for a full transcript of Pete Thamel's interview with Manti Te'o.)She said Tuiasosopo told her Te'o was not involved in the hoax, and that he had concocted similar hoaxes on "other people.""He (Ronaiah) told me that Manti was not involved at all, he was a victim. ... The girlfriend was a lie, the accident was a lie, the leukemia was a lie," said the woman. "He was crying, he was literally crying, he's like 'I know, I know what I have to do.'"It's not only Manti, but he was telling me that it's a lot of other people they had done this to."Notre Dame issued a news release and held a press conference Wednesday after Deadspin reported it could find no record of Lennay Kekua -- Te'o's supposed girlfriend mentioned in several stories on the linebacker -- ever existed. Athletic director Jack Swarbrick said a university investigation found that someone using a fictitious name "apparently ingratiated herself" with Te'o, then conspired with others to lead him to believe Kekua had died of leukemia.The woman who spoke to Outside the Lines said she urged Tuiasosopo to take responsibility when he called her as news of the hoax was breaking Wednesday. She is also concerned that Tuiasosopo might harm himself."I (still) am worried for him (Ronaiah), not just him and his family but I know that you can't judge people like that and that's why I continue to just encourage (him) to come out and tell the truth," she said.Questions about Te'o perpetuating the hoax remain after he was quoted discussing details of his relationship with Kekau in a Dec. 8 Web interview and a Dec. 10 newspaper interview after he told Notre Dame officials he learned that she never existed on Dec. 6.In the video below, SI.com's Pete Thamel discusses the information about Manti Te'o that has surfaced since he reported his Sports Illustrated story in October.

Nutritional Vegetables for Kids -
Nutrition, Vitamins and Health Benefits
Vegetables are health foods for kids. Try introducing vegetables to
your child's diet
when they are young so that they become accustomed
to eating them on a daily basis and vegetables
become a normal part of life to them. Vegetables are an essential part
of any kids diet and this is a fact that is
supported by the government and leading health
experts. Vegetables provide a rich source of
vitamins, nutrients and minerals that are essential
to kids health and development. The health benefits
will significantly increase kids physical and mental
abilities. For example, the benefits of vegetables
can provide your child with more energy, the ability
to concentrate and focus more clearly and for longer
periods of time.
Health Benefits of Vegetables for Kids
- Nutrition, Vitamins and Health Benefits
The vitamins and nutrients
strengthen your kids immune system which will help
them to fight off common colds, flu, illnesses and
disease. This is very important as children are
often very susceptible to illness, particularly at
nursery and school where germs spread very quickly
and are passed from one child to another.
We all want our children
have the best possible chance in life and providing
them with a healthy balanced diet containing lots of
nutritional healthy vegetables and benefits is a significant
step in the right direction. A healthy balanced diet
rich in vitamins, nutrition and health benefits can significantly
change a child's behavior. A diet high in sugar can
result in lack of concentration and hyperactivity.
However, providing a child healthy foods which
include the goodness and health benefits of
vegetables can really increase your kid's ability to
concentrate, learn more, sleep better and improve
overall behavior.
The importance of vegetables for kids and the health
benefits this food group provides really
can't be stressed enough. As we know, the wrong
foods can lead to poor behavior, lack of
concentration, weight gain, obesity and an
unnecessary weakened immune system which can result
in kids catching any cold, bug, virus or illness
that they come into contact with. Therefore, as a
parent, be sure to provide vegetables to your kids
on a daily basis.
about Vegetables for Kids
- Nutrition and Health Benefits
Vegetables are
one of the richest sources of essential vitamins,
minerals and nutrients that can be provided to kids
The benefits
of Vegetables for Kids is endless and includes a
strengthened immune system which helps to combat
illness and disease
The government
and leading health experts recommend that kids eat
vegetables and fruit on a daily basis
Raw vegetables
provide the highest nutritional benefits i.e. try
adding grated carrot or sliced cucumber to your kids lunchbox
Types of Vegetables for Kids
- Nutrition, Vitamins and Health Benefits
All vegetables promote good health
for children, however, there are some that are perhaps more
appealing to children as they are sweeter tasting or
there are varieties that provide more health benefits
and nutritional value than others. The following
information will help to give parents some new ideas
about which vegetables to feed to kids and ways to get
kids to eat vegetables:
Vegetables for Kids - Baby New
Baby new potatoes - this type
of potato is a healthier vegetable for kids as they have
the lowest GL of all potatoes. This is because this
variety of potato is smaller and younger so they have
not developed high sugar levels.
Vegetables for Kids - Sweet
Sweet potatoes - this type of
vegetable is sweet so it's often very appealing to
children. However, it is also very healthy and has lots
of nutritional benefits to offer. Sweet potatoes can be
cooked in ways which will appeal to kids such as mashed
or roasted. Sweet potato fries are also becoming very
popular. This vegetable is good for kids as it is rich
in the antioxidant beta-carotene which the body cleverly
converts to vitamin A and vitamin C. These vitamins help
to strengthen the immune system. Beta-carotene is also
beneficial to bone health, vision and many other areas
of the body. If you can manage to convince your kids to
eat the skin, then do so as the skin holds the most
nutritional content and is rich in fibre.
Vegetables for Kids - Carrots
Carrots - if you are looking
for lunch ideas for kids then this is definitely a vegetable
that is
ideal for children and like sweet potato, it is also
rich in beta-carotene which provides many health
benefits. Try putting a few carrot sticks or some grated
carrot in your child's lunchbox as this will make a
great healthy snack. Raw carrots, or any
vegetable that can be eaten raw, are extremely
beneficial as they contain the most nutritional value.
Raw carrot taste sweet and is often an appealing
vegetable for kids. Carrots are also an excellent source
of potassium, calcium, zinc and iron - nutrients that
will provide your child with many health benefits.
Vegetables for Kids - Shallots,
Red Onion and Spring Onion
Shallots, red onion and spring
onion - onions are extremely healthy and good for
children. This type of vegetable can be added to many
kids recipes or meal. This is a vegetable that can be
eaten raw or cooked in many different ways. Shallots,
red onion and spring onion tend to have a milder flavor
than other varieties of onions, therefore, they are
often more appealing to kids. Onions are excellent for
the health as they help to maintain a healthy heart and
provide vitamin B, vitamin C, calcium, potassium and
Vegetables for Kids - Garlic
Garlic - Try to add a little
garlic to kids recipes where possible as it is very
healthy and beneficial to kids. Garlic is good for
the blood and helps to maintain a healthy heart. Also,
garlic is very therapeutic and has great healing
qualities. If your child has difficulty eating
vegetables then try adding a little bit of garlic as it
will more than likely go unnoticed!
The Best Vegetables for Kids
- Nutrition, Vitamins and Health Benefits
Other healthy vegetables for kids include - rocket,
watercress, spinach, alfalfa sprouts, courgettes
(zucchini), mushrooms, purple or green broccoli,
aubergine and peppers, and green vegetables such as
Vegetables for Kids -
Children refusing to eat vegetables
Kids and vegetables, unfortunately,
do not always go together! Obviously children are not going to
like all vegetables and may point blank refuse to any
vegetables at all. However, parents should be gently
persistent and persuasive, and try feeding their kid
vegetables through different methods. Try talking to
your kids about the importance of eating vegetables and
how this type of food will benefit their health and make
them stronger! Encourage your children to try different
types of vegetables and experiment with their food. Try
blending vegetables into their dinners if they refuse to
eat them. For example, try mashing swede or carrot with
potato. This is a very simple but effective method.
Vegetables for Kids - Nutrition, Vitamins and Health
When buying vegetables for kids, you
must consider health for kids, therefore,
always pick the freshest varieties, organic vegetables
are the best option if they're available. Try to pick
out vegetables for kids that can be eaten raw. The
reasons for this are that fresh vegetables contain more
nutrients and have the highest nutritional value. Older
vegetables that have started to go limp or appear
blemished will have lost of their original nutrition
Vegetables for Kids - Nutrition, Vitamins and Health
Organic vegetables for kids are the
healthiest variety as they are free from chemicals.
Organic means that the vegetables have been grown in
soil that has not been chemically treated. Therefore,
there is no risk of any unwanted chemicals reaching your
kids bloodstream as eating organic simply means they
will not be consumed through the body in the first
Raw Vegetables for Kids
- Nutrition, Vitamins and Health Benefits
Raw vegetables for kids provide the
highest source of vitamins and minerals as the cooking
process causes a large loss of nutrients. Also, the most
vitamins and nutrients are found in the vegetables skin
and the layer directly beneath the skin, so where
possible parents are advised to leave the skin on or
peel as little of the skin off as possible in order to
retain the vegetables goodness for your kids.
experts and nutritionists believe that a well-balanced
diet that includes at least five portions of fruit and
vegetables per day will help to considerably improve our
lifestyles and ultimately extend our lives

What are blind spots?
A blind spot is a distortion or absence of sight in a small portion of the visual field. Blind spots that completely eradicate vision are called negative scotomas, while spots that look like steady or flashing lights are called positive scotomas. These spots often go unnoticed unless they interfere significantly with vision.
What causes blind spots?
A wide range of medical problems can lead to the development of blind spots.
Among the most common causes are glaucoma, in which abnormally high fluid pressure builds up inside the eye, and diabetic retinopathy, in which blood vessels in the retina overgrow and burst after a long history of diabetes. Macular degeneration, a deterioration of part of the retina, causes blind spots in the central part of the field of vision; distortion of straight lines is an early sign of the disorder. Atherosclerosis (the buildup of fatty deposits inside arteries) in the artery that feeds the retina can cause a blind spot as well. Strokes, also caused by atherosclerosis, sometimes manifest themselves as blind spots, but other stroke symptoms almost always accompany the visual disturbance. Migraine headaches cause temporary blind spots. Alcohol abuse, multiple sclerosis, and pituitary tumors may also result in blind spots.
How are blind spots diagnosed and treated?
Diagnosis is based on an eye examination and other tests. If an eye hemorrhage is the cause of a blind spot, the doctor will be able to see it using an ophthalmoscope — a hand-
held magnifying instrument with a lighted tip. Blind spots resulting from nerve defects may require careful vision testing aimed at locating exactly where the blind spot is situated in the field of vision. By thus locating a blind spot, the doctor will obtain clues about the cause.
Treatment varies widely depending upon the cause. Blind spots themselves are not treated, but when the disease that is responsible for their development is under control, they will usually disappear or stop progressing. Eye drops or oral medications can control glaucoma, for instance, and diabetic retinopathy can often be kept in check with laser treatments to stop the bleeding.
What can I do myself?
Self-treatment of blind spots is not effective.
Atherosclerosis can cause fatty deposits and tiny hemorrhages in the eye.
When should I see my doctor?
If blind spots or other visual disturbances develop, a doctor or eye-care professional should be seen promptly This is especially important for persons with diabetes or glaucoma.
What will the doctor do?
The doctor will take a complete medical history, with special attention to any underlying conditions that might be causing blind spots. The patient may be referred to an ophthalmologist (a physician who specializes in treating eye diseases) for a thorough eye examination. A procedure called tonometry (in which a puff of air is blown into the eyeball) can determine whether glaucoma is present. More sophisticated tests may be necessary to rule out other causes such as a pituitary tumor.
The course of blind spots
Blind spots may disappear on their own. Scotomas due to migraine headaches go away when the headache dissipates. If blind spots are due to other diseases, they may persist and be accompanied by other symptoms.
Are blind spots dangerous?
They may make it unsafe to drive or use machinery, and they can indicate the presence of a more serious medical problem.
What can I do to avoid blind spots?

Crawfish Tomato étouffée in Puff Pastry Shells
- 1 onion, chopped fine
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped fine
- 1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- a 1-pound can whole tomatoes in purée, drained, reserving 2 tablespoons purée, and chopped fine
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, or to taste
- a 1-pound bag frozen crawfish tail meat (preferably Louisiana), thawed
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced scallion greens
- 4 teaspoons white-wine vinegar
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 8 cups mesclun (mixed baby greens, about 3/4 pound), rinsed and spun dry
- 8 puff pastry shells
For puff pastry shells:
- 3 puff pastry sheets (from two 17 1/4-ounce packages frozen puff pastry sheets), thawed
- an egg wash made by beating 1 large egg with 1 teaspoon water
PreparationMake puff pastry shells:
Preheat oven to 400�F.
On a lightly floured surface roll out 1 pastry sheet 1/8 inch thick (about 15 by 11 inches) and with a 4-inch round cutter cut out 6 rounds. Roll out second pastry sheet and cut out 6 more rounds in same manner. Roll out remaining pastry sheet and cut out 4 more rounds in same manner. (There will be a total of 16 rounds.) Transfer 8 rounds to a large baking sheet. With a 2 1/2-inch round cutter cut out and discard centers from remaining 8 rounds to make rings. Prick rounds on baking sheet with a fork and brush lightly with some egg wash, being careful not to let wash run over edges. Center pastry rings on rounds, pressing together lightly to adhere. Brush tops of rings lightly with some egg wash, being careful not to let wash run over edges.
Bake pastry shells in middle of oven until golden, about 9 minutes, and transfer to a rack. With a paring knife carefully cut out and remove pastry centers to form cavities. Pastry shells may be made 2 days ahead and kept in airtight containers. Reheat pastry shells in middle of a 400�F. oven until warm before serving.
Make etouffée:
In a heavy skillet cook onion and bell pepper in butter, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned. Sprinkle flour over onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and reserved pur�e, water, and cayenne and simmer, stirring, until thickened slightly, about 1 minute. Stir in crawfish and heat mixture over moderate heat until just hot. Etouff�e may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead, cooled completely, uncovered, and chilled, covered. Reheat etouff�e before proceeding. Stir in scallions and salt to taste.
In a large bowl whisk together vinegar and salt and pepper to taste and whisk in oil in a stream until emulsified. Add mesclun and toss well.
Spoon etouff�e into warm pastry shells and arrange mesclun around shells.

Food Tracking Rarely Eaten Foods
I have manually entered a food called X which I have ascribed 1 calorie per gram and that way if I know I have eaten 200 calories of a food that I don't plan to eat again or often, I can enter 200 grams of X and it will add 200 calories to my nutrition tracker. Doesn't track the other nutrients of course but right now calories are my main consideration.

In the past year Grammy-nominated pop band, Fall Out Boy has seen their fifth studio album, Save Rock and Roll reach multiplatinum status, thanks to hit singles, "My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up)" and "Alone Together." Getting their start in Copenhagen, New Politics has an international following with hit singles, "Yeah Yeah Yeah" and "Harlem."
The Fall Out Boy and New Politics concert is part of the Washington State Fair's 2014 Columbia Bank Concert Series. Tickets to the Friday, Sept. 12 concert are $55 for Infield general admission seating, and $45 for Grandstand general admission seating, and include Fair gate admission. Tickets will start selling on Saturday, April 5 at 10 a.m. on the Fair website,
http://www.thefair.com/fun/details/jennifer-nettles-that-girl-tour-2014 or by phone (888) 559-FAIR (3247) daily, 7 a.m. – 8 p.m. PST. Tickets can also be purchased in person at the Washington State Fair's Box Office at 9th Ave SW and Meridian Street on Saturdays, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m., and a $1 per ticket service fee will be charged for on-site purchases.
Fall Out Boy
American pop rock band Fall Out Boy got its start in Wilmette, Illinois, just outside Chicago in 2001. The band had originally started as a pop punk band, formed by Pete Wentz and Joe Trohman. After several tries with drummers, they landed on Andy Hurley. The band recorded their debut album, Take This to Your Grave in 2003.
Fall Out Boy's major label breakthrough took place in 2005 with From Under the Cork Tree, which went platinum. The album produced two hit singles, "Sugar, We're Goin Down" and "Dance, Dance." Infinity on High reached #1 on the Billboard 200 in 2007, and produced several hit singles, including "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" and "thnks fr th Mmrs." Another album followed before they took a hiatus from 2009-2012.
The band got back together and recorded Save Rock and Roll in 2013, producing their second career number one and top 20 single, "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (Light 'Em Up)" and "Alone Together." The album debuted at #1 on Billboard's Top 200 and #1 on iTunes in 27 countries when it was released in April 2013.
The band has appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone, and other prestigious magazines. Fall Out Boy has performed on Saturday Night Live, The Voice, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and many other shows. For further information, visit www.falloutboy.com.
New Politics:
If you blend together punk, pop and electronically induced dance rock, you have the Copenhagen, Denmark band, New Politics.
David Boyd and Soren Hansen wrote songs together for three years for their respective solo albums, finally realizing they would work together well as a group. The duo sent two of their songs to the Danish National Radio P3's Karriere Kanonen competition in 2009. Of 973 bands entered, they were one of 42 selected to perform. The challenge was that they were not yet an official band. They hired Poul Amaliel to play drums, and made it official. New Politics was one of the top four winners, and play in a major music festival in Denmark.
In signing with RCA, they took the step and moved to New York. They released their first self-titled album, then toured in the US to promote it. In late 2010 Poul Amaliel left the band to move home, and was replaced by Louis Vecchio. In 2013 they released A Bad Girl in Harlem.
New Politics has opened for several tours, and was the opening act for Pink during their "The Truth About Love Tour" in 2013, as well as Fall Out Yoy's "Save Rock and Roll Tour" that same year. For more information, visit www.newpoliticsrock.com.
Service and handling fees are added to the price of each ticket.

Town of Ontario plow destroyed by flames while clearing roads
On Wednesday (1/1) at 3:30 a.m., Gary Kotvis was working his plow/salt route on Walworth Ontario Road near Paddy Lane Town. The Town of Ontario truck driver heard a noise. Within seconds, a flame erupted in the cab of the 2001 Sterling 10-wheel truck.
Kotvis immediately pulled over, out of the roadway, away from houses and power lines, and leaped from the burning cab. The truck became fully engulfed and the truck was deemed a total loss within minutes.
According to newly elected Town Supervisor John Smith, the Town of Marion Highway is helping Ontario out, lending a hand keeping the roadways clear until a replacement truck is purchased.
Smith said the cause of the fire could have been mechanical or electrical. They are uncertain at this time.
The Ontario Fire Department rushed to the scene to extinguish the flames and the destroyed truck was towed to the Highway barns. The truck was fully insured.

Tony Lokko to step down as Berekum Chelsea coach
Berekum Chelsea head coach Tony Lokko is on the verge of resigning from his post over poor working conditions.
Reports says the former Amidaus Professionals coach is owed salaries and really fed up with life in Berekum.
"Coach Tony Lokko is about to move on from Berekum Chelsea and you should not be surprised if that happens as early as this week," MTNFootball.com understands.
"They promised him some players to help the team do well in the league this time around but so far it has not happened.
"Even his salary is a problem and a host of problems that is making him wanting to quit the club.
"There have been several meetings but they keep going back and front.
"Chelsea are not matching his ambitions and he is seriously thinking of calling it a day."
Lokko led Berekum Chelsea to a disappointing 12th place finish last season.

SueLower-priced, But High-quality With A Soft Scent - Not Over-poweringI've used Argan Oil Body Butter made by another manufacturer that is over 4 times the cost of this Body Drench brand. I took a chance on this and I'm very pleased. It soaks in and doesn't stay greasy very long. It doesn't feel "heavy" but moisturizers well. I also prefer this brand's softer scent so it doesn't clash with my perfume!

RachelNycMoisturizing And Amazing Smell!I was unsure how this 'argan oil' lotion would fare but gave it a shot and was so pleasantly surprised. The lotion is really luxurious and moisturizing but isn't overly heavy and absorbs quickly. The smell is delicate but still nice without being overpowering. It has been a long time since I found a lotion (accidentally!) that I loved so much.8 out of 8 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Remember the days when phone booths stood on every street corner? If you had to make a call, you'd step inside the little booth, lift the phone off the hook, put a coin in the slot, listen for the click, push the buttons, and hear it ring? And for only 25 cents, in the quiet of the booth, you could call your grandmother, or let the office know you were running late, or get directions for a birthday party. . . This is the story of one of the last remaining phone booths in New York City, the Phone Booth on the corner of West End Avenue and 100th. Everyone used it — from ballerinas and girl scouts, zookeepers and birthday clowns, to cellists and even secret agents! The Phone Booth was so beloved that people would sometimes wait in line to use it. Kept clean and polished, the Phone Booth was proud and happy . . . until, the day a businessman strode by and shouted into a shiny silver object, "I'll be there in ten minutes!" Soon everyone was talking into these shiny silver things, and the Phone Booth stood alone and empty, unused and dejected.How the Phone Booth saved the day and united the neighborhood to rally around its revival is the heart of this soulful story. In a world in which objects we love and recognize as part of the integral fabric of our lives are disappearing at a rapid rate, here is a story about the value of the analog, the power of the people's voice, and the care and respect due to those things that have served us well over time.With his delightful, witty, and boldly colored illustrations that evoke Miroslav Sasek's mid-century modern aesthetic, Max Dalton simply and elegantly captures the energy and diversity of New York City and its inhabitants. A beauty to behold and a pleasure to read, The Lonely Phone Booth is sure to be a favorite among children and parents alike, and the real Phone Booth, which is still standing at West End Avenue and 100th Street, is worth a field trip! Praise for The Lonely Phone BoothThe Lonely Phone Booth, the first children's book by Peter Ackerman, a screenwriter and playwright, takes a more intimate look at a slice of life in a New York City neighborhood. In a happenstance befitting this warm, quirky story, it turns out that the author and I reside in the same building just a few blocks from the real phone booth, at 100th Street and West End Avenue, that inspired his book. Scene-stealing illustrations by Max Dalton convey the story's nostalgic sensibility. His saturated colors and cartoonish faces suggest Miroslav Sasek's 1960 tribute "This Is New York," and other books in that series . . . a [cozy] story celebrating the fabric of a neighborhood, that intangible quality New Yorkers treasure.—The New York Times Book ReviewEvoking the same kind of New York charm as favorites like The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge and The House on East 88th Street, screenwriter Ackerman celebrates a humble phone booth (still standing at 100th Street and West End Avenue) that saves the Upper West Side—and vice versa. Fellow newcomer Dalton's retro vignettes set the scene with square-jawed men in skinny ties, Girl Scouts in braids, and assorted neighborhood clowns, ballerinas, and secret agents while Ackerman explains how things used to be. "Each week, phone company workers came to clean and polish the Phone Booth, to collect the deposited coins, and to make sure that its buttons were working properly." The booth has plenty of customers until people start holding "shiny silver objects" to their ears, puzzling the phone booth and eradicating the long lines of callers waiting "just to wish their grandmas a happy birthday." An electrical storm reveals the vulnerability of the cellphone network ("Hey, does this old thing work?" a construction foreman asks, eyeing the dilapidated booth), causing the locals to reevaluate its worth. Cultural history of the best sort.—Publishers WeeklyThis endearing little book straddles two technological eras in its tale of the life and times of a public phone booth on the corner of West End Avenue and 100th Street in New York City. The story and artwork introduce children to all the life and varied people of the big city, from secret agents to ballerinas to grandmas. Just when the last of the phone booths is to be carted away, a cell phone disaster reminds everyone that some parts of the good old days are worth keeping around. For ages 4-8. (July)—ForeWord MagazinePeter Ackerman's winning text is wonderfully complimented by Max Dalton's retro style artwork. The art not only tells a splendid story in and of itself, but it also celebrates the colorful and diverse people who live in New York City.—Through the Looking Glass Children's Book ReviewThe Lonely Phone Booth is filled with nostalgic, colorful illustrations that bring back the era of '60's children's book illustrations, which harmonizes well with the story. The Lonely Phone Booth is perfect for children age 4 and up, and will help preserve some history of communication technology while amusing and entertaining a young audience.—Midwest Book Review/Children's BookshelfThis title is now available as an eBook through Ganxy, Amazon Kindle, Barnes & Noble, and the Apple iBookstore.

Igarashi Shummei, Lao Zi, a hanging scroll painting
Edo period, 18th century AD
The 'aged child'
Lao Zi (Japanese: Rōshi) was one of the greatest philosophers of ancient China, and appeared frequently in Chinese and Japanese paintings. This is the most popular depiction: Lao Zi is seated on the blue ox that will carry him through the official border, out of the country and into Central Asia so that he can spread his philosophical teachings. Strange descriptions abounded regarding Lao Zi's physical appearance: he was supposed to have emerged from his mother's side after eighty-one years in the womb, already an old man with white hair (hence his name, literally 'aged child'). He was also said to have extraordinarily large ears. Both these characteristics can be seen here.
Igarashi Shummei (1700-1781) was from Echigo province (modern Niigata prefecture) on Japan's north coast, but moved first to Edo (modern Tokyo) where he trained as a painter under Kanō Ryōshin (1704-85). He also studied Tosa school works and the styles of Chinese ink painting of the Song dynasty (960-1278). For most of his career, however, he was active in Kyoto, where he studied Confucianism with Yamazaki Ansai (1618-82).
This work features bold, sharp brushwork on the figure of Lao Zi, with softer ink washes for the body of the ox, as well as a delicate use of colour on the robes and harnesses. The signature reads 'Hōgen Go Shummei' ('Go Shummei of hōgen rank'). The seals read 'Echi(?)' and 'Shummei'.

Charlie Sheen 'Goddesses' Speak Out on GMA (VIDEO)
"We all love and care about each other, so we all have our own connections with one another," said Oberlin.
"It works well for us," added Kenly, referring to their communal living arrangement. "It's unconventional and it seems crazy to everybody else, but for us it works well, and we all love and respect each other and respect each other's boundaries."
Then, Sheen walks on camera and kisses both women on the lips. "Look at these two. Wow! Who's got it better than me?" he said, joking that Hugh Hefner is an "amateur" compared to him.

Archive for the 'comic book' tag
Four-Links – Batmobile through the years, early wind tunnel testing, EV drag racer, First or Nothing
* Complex magazine this week provided the most comprehensive run-down of Batmobile designs through the years we've yet seen.
* David Greenlees over at The Old Motor this week showed us an early approach to wind tunnel testing, using scales to measure the various forces on the car.
* The latest entry in the list of oddball electric car projects is this Enfield 8000, an anemic British electric car that Jonny Smith of Fifth Gear is turning into an electric drag racer. (via)
* Shorpy this week dug up this photo of the start of a race in 1915 Washington, D.C. Anybody know the details of the race? Looks like it attracted a good variety of competitors.
* Finally, Popular Science dug through its archives for some homebuilt cars, including Chicago high school student Mylio Ozuk's, above, projected to reach 130 MPH.
Four-Links – the cars of Tintin, beach cars, dream garages, 1962 slot car champ Henry Harnish
* Dr. Hypercube (via BibliOdyssey) shot this one over to us: François de Dardel has gone through a number of Tintin volumes, picked out the cars and trucks shown in them, and tried his hand at identifying them all. For a comic style, Hergé sure seemed intent on reproducing vehicles fairly accurately.
* Thought the Fiat Jolly was the only type of beach car built over the years? CoolBeachCars.com can fill you in on some of the rest that have been built in that style.
* Over on Marque1.com, Philip reviews "Traumgaragen," a book of German dream garages.
* Over on the H.A.M.B., Deuce3wCpe presented the excellent story of Henry Harnish, the 15-year-old boy who would meet Stirling Moss on his way to becoming the 1962 Aurora slot car champion and winning a new 1962 Ford Thunderbird.
* Finally, if you've been digging the March Military Campaign so far, then clear your afternoon schedule and page through the Military Automobiles Pics post over on MilitaryPhotos.net. Above, the Belarus-built MKZT-79221 16×16 vehicle. What does it do? Exudes pure awesomeness, that's what.
Four-Links – How to build the ultimate Cobra, FC Rolligon, GM diesel comix, something's not right with these photos
* Much ado has been made on the 'net these past couple weeks about Larry Ellison's ultimate Cobra, built by Kirkham Motorsports, and Kirkham hasn't been shy about letting the world see how it was done, producing a book on the topic that is now available in PDF. (via)
* We've explored the Rolligon concept before on a Power Wagon, now we see, thanks to the FC Connection, that somebody affixed some Rolligon bags to a Jeep FC-170. (via)
* Contributor diskojoe recently sent us this link to a scan of a 1955 comic book that GM produced to educate kids about the roles diesels play. Who really thought, "Hey, don't you think kids need to learn about this?"
* There's something a little off about Michael Paul Smith's photographs, as presented over on Carros Antigos. Scroll through them, and you start to wonder: Why are the cars so well-colored? Are these colorized black-and-white photos? It's not until you get to the last photo in the series that you realize what's really going on here.
* Finally, Performance Therapy, a contest for those of you who wrench, show and drive your collector cars. The winner will be announced at SEMA early next month. I don't see a single AMC in there, folks; somebody enter one and give those Camaros a run for their money!

Seven years since the onset of the global financial crisis, we are still assessing how the crisis should change our views about macroeconomic policy. To take stock, the IMF organized two conferences, the first in 2011, the second in 2013, and published the proceedings in two books, titled "In the Wake of the Crisis" and "What Have We Learned?".
The time seems right for a third assessment. Research has continued, policies have been tried, and the debates have been intense. But have we truly made much progress? Are we closer to a new framework? To address these questions, Raghuram Rajan, Ken Rogoff, Larry Summers and I are organizing a third conference, "Rethinking Macro Policy III: Progress or Confusion?" that will take place on April 15-16 at the IMF.

- Dr. Stan Clark, professor in The University of Southern Mississippi
School of Accountancy and Information Systems, has received the
Jerold J. Morgan Distinguished Professorship.
The two-year
appointment begins immediately and carries a stipend of approximately
$12,500 a year. The $250,000 endowment honoring its namesake was
established by the Jerold J. Morgan Foundation in 1994 and is administered
by the Southern Miss Foundation.
It is intended
to give Southern Miss faculty members a chance to advance professional
research and service efforts. Stipulations free the recipient from
summer full-time teaching assignments to provide an uninterrupted
time for research and service projects.
Clark received
his doctorate in accounting from the University of Kentucky. He
has a master's of professional accountancy and a bachelor's degree
in accounting, both from Southern Miss.
Clark's primary
teaching areas are financial accounting and individual income taxes.
He has published articles in Journal of Accountancy, Ohio CPA Journal,
Journal of Corporate Accounting and Finance, and Strategic Finance,
among others.
An active supporter
of continuing professional education, Clark has developed and taught
numerous courses for the Mississippi Society of CPAs, the Mississippi
Association of Public Accountants and other local CPA firms. In
1998, he was recognized as the Outstanding CPE Instructor by the
Mississippi Society of CPAs.
Clark's papers
have garnered a Certificate of Merit from the Institute of Management
Accountants, and have twice won outstanding manuscript awards at
the annual meeting of the Academy of Accounting and Financial Studies.
In 2000, he won the Southern Miss Excellence in Teaching Award.
The professorship
is named in honor of Dr. Jerold J. Morgan, who retired from the
Southern Miss faculty in July 1992 after 23 years of service that
included serving as the first director of the School of Accountancy,
and being named Distinguished Professor in 1986 and educator of
the Year in 1990. He died in 1994.

The Meaning of Memorial Day…..
To many Americans, Memorial Day remains a day of stories.
Stories about heroes. Stories about valor. Stories about
sacrifice. But to a veteran, Memorial Day is about men, women
and friends no longer with us, feelings of emptiness.
It's about heroism, the incredible things the medics did to
keep men and women alive, and about those who gave the
ultimate sacrifice for your freedom and the security of your
great Nation!
To a veteran, Memorial Day is about people;
· It
is about people who gave their all
People who gave of themselves
People who loved their country and their friends more than
It is about those who died, those who suffer from horrific
wounds, and those who have serious psychological
wounds that we cannot see by just looking at them.
It is about people who will never be exactly like they were
before they went to war.
A Brief History of Memorial Day ….
Originally called Decoration Day, Memorial Day is a day of
remembrance for those who have died in service to our
country. It was first widely observed on May 30, 1868, to
commemorate the sacrifices of Civil War soldiers, by
a proclamation of General John A. Logan of the Grand Army of
the Republic, an organization of former sailors and
During the first national celebration, General James
Garfield made a speech at Arlington National Cemetery, after
which 5,000 participants helped to decorate the graves of
the more than 20,000 Union and Confederate soldiers who were
buried there. This event was inspired by local observances
of the day that had taken place in several towns throughout
America during the three years following the Civil War. By the late
1800s, many more cities and communities had begun to observe
Memorial Day, and after World War I, it became an occasion
for honoring those who had died in all America's wars.
Memorial Day is celebrated at Arlington National Cemetery
each year with a ceremony in which a small American flag is
placed on each grave. Traditionally, the President or Vice
President lays a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
About 5,000 people attend the ceremony annually.
In 1971, Congress declared
Memorial Day a national holiday to be celebrated on the last
Monday of May. Several southern states, however, have an
additional, separate day for honoring the Confederate war
dead: January 19 in Texas; April 26 in Alabama, Florida,
Georgia and Mississippi; May 10 in South Carolina; and June
3 in Louisiana and Tennessee.

Bum Kon – Drunken Sex Sucks (Smooch Records) 2008. As someone who moved to Denver later in life, I was not around for the hardcore zeitgeist of the early 1980s. I mentioned a long time ago in a write-up on Ultraman, that "I'm sure every town had a band like Ultraman in the 1980′s. Local heroes who were head and shoulders above all the rest." I always assumed that Denver's version of this band (and every smaller town had at least one) was The Frantix. Apparently, I was a little off. The band that ruled the Denver hardcore scene was according to the liner notes of this new CD, Bum Kon.
Bum Kon recorded two albums and a single in between 1983 and 1986. The single is called 'Drunken Sex Sucks' (an opinion I have been known to disagree with) and was released by Local Anesthetic in 1983. You can hear that monster of a 7inch on the new Local Anesthetic comp I wrote up a few weeks back. Everything else was unreleased and sat in a top secret bunker in the heart of the Rockies until this year when Andrew Smooch and his rag-tag band of misfits raided the compound and unearthed 25 tracks of pure, un-distilled, hardcore noize onto an unsuspecting, record-buying public. So what we have here is the entire recorded output of the kings of Rocky Mountain hardcore, recorded in the early eighties. How does that sound?
It sounds good, mi amigo. Real good.
Actually the sound quality of the disk is a little hot. I mean, it's like they miked everything at 11. But this is obscure hardcore from the 1980s. Expecting high production values from this is like expecting CGI effects in a Ted V Mikels movie. So you gotta get past the sound quality (which is no worse than the sound quality of the 7inch by the way) and listen to the songs. First thing I gotta say is that Bum Kon were fucking fast. I'm talking Husker Du "Bricklayer" fast here folks. Bum Kon were definitely a hardcore band. Don't let the first track "Giving In" fool ya. That one has an almost SoCal feel to it, kinda like something off the first TSOL EP stripped of all the Posh Boy production value. Nope….after "Giving In" it's all flailing bodies, swinging fists, hostility, political incorrectness and booze fuelled madness.
I give this disk a 10. I think it is better than the Local Anesthetic comp. I admire a band like Bum Kon. They played kick-ass hardcore in the middle of nowhere at a time when doing it made you a complete social outcast. They recorded an entire of album purely for the hell of it because they had zero commercial potential. I mean, do you know what the name Bum Kon means?

KLAS' determination of Children's Hospital's leadership position was based upon a number of factors including the percentage of possible physicians doing CPOE, the percentage of possible orders submitted via CPOE (inpatient and ambulatory), the percentage of physicians entering notes and documenting using an electronic health record (inpatient and ambulatory), a fully shared record between inpatient and ambulatory, the percentage of hospital beds where barcode technology is used for medication administration and the percentage of nurses charting and documenting electronically (inpatient and ambulatory).
During the presentation, Gale said the future of health care information technology is to use the systems to mine data to improve safety and quality, as Children's Hospital is now starting to do. "You are one of the pioneers," he said.

"Seems Like Old Times": Democracy = No God
Roughly 208 years ago this month you could open many a Federalist newspaper — the mainstream commercial press of the time – and find the following notice regarding that year's hotly contested presidential election:
This was the first case of a U.S. party in power trying to save itself by juicing up the atavistic fears of Christian voters. In 1800, it was the supporters of John Adams who tried to paint challenger Thomas Jefferson as an alien infidel out to destroy traditional values and shut down the churches, even though there were almost no federal policy issues related to religion or the sanctity of the family being debated. (Jefferson was also accused of palling around with terrorists, in the Reign of Terror sense anyway.)
These 1800 attacks on Jefferson were what Joe Biden was referring to the other day in a comparison that made headlines a few places, "Biden compares Obama attacks to past presidents":
Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden on Monday cast White House hopeful Barack Obama with presidential giants, likening attacks against his running mate to criticisms lobbed against Thomas Jefferson's Christianity, Abraham Lincoln's commitment to individual rights and John F. Kennedy, for being a "dangerous choice in difficult times."
"Sound familiar?" Biden asked the crowd. "The defenders of the status quo have always tried to tear down those who would change our nation for the better."
That comparison seemed a trifle strained (only a trifle) when Biden uttered it, but apparently the Elizabeth Dole campaign down in North Carolina looked up the 1800 race and decided that the Federalists' "No God" line needed to be echoed even more literally:
The Trail – washingtonpost.com
North Carolina's U.S. Senate race erupted this week after Sen. Elizabeth Dole (R-N.C.) launched an ad accusing her Democratic challenger of supporting the agenda of a political committee devoted to atheists.
State Sen. Kay Hagan (D), who polls show is narrowly leading Dole, filed suit in a North Carolina court Thursday accusing the incumbent of defaming her in the advertisement, which ends with an image of Hagan on the screen and a female voice saying, "There is no God."
Here's the commercial itself, for the comparative record:
