Corporations have long complained about hourly billing by the law firms they retain, a practice that seems to reward attorneys for spending as much time as possible on an assignment. The subject comes up from time to time at law firms, too, with some already taking incremental steps away from watching the clock. Yet, especially for litigation, hourly billing has persisted as the primary way big law firms charge for their services. Now, Evan Chesler, the presiding partner at white-shoe firm Cravath, Swaine & Moore, tells BusinessWeek he's on a mission to "make the billable hour irrelevant," even for lawsuits. Chesler's proclamation is significant. Where New York-based Cravath goes, other elite firms often follow. And Cravath, Chesler says, is "trying more and more to come to alternative fee arrangements." Typically, this involves charging a flat fee. The move isn't recession-related, Chesler says, although he acknowledges that the idea "resonates much more now," as clients try to adhere to tighter budgets. Cravath may be a winner, too, he says. "Ultimately it could be more profitable— if we are as good as we think we are."

Stealth Democracy
Americans' Beliefs About How Government Should Work
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreAmericans often complain about the operation of their government, but scholars have never developed a complete picture of people's preferred type of government. In this provocative and timely book, Hibbing and Theiss-Morse, employing an original national survey and focus groups, report the governmental procedures Americans desire. Contrary to the prevailing view that people want greater involvement in politics, most citizens do not care about most policies and therefore are content to turn over decision-making authority to someone else. People's wish for the political system is that decision makers be empathetic and, especially, non-self-interested, not that they be responsive and accountable to the people's largely nonexistent policy preferences or, even worse, that the people be obligated to participate directly in decision making. Hibbing and Theiss-Morse conclude by cautioning communitarians, direct democrats, social capitalists, deliberation theorists, and all those who think that greater citizen involvement is the solution to society's problems. less

Today, cugoldeneagles.com begins its women's soccer feature; "Free Kicks with " Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the season, fans will have an opportunity to get to know the Golden Eagles a bit better through a question-and-answer session. Today, the series starts with sophomore defender Kate Wiegman.
Wiegman, a sophomore, has started all three matches of the 2012 campaign on defense, for head coach Randy Strawser.
For a more personal introduction to Kate Wiegman, read on
The best part about being on the Golden Eagle's Soccer team? Being surrounded by players and coaches that know playing soccer should ultimately glorify God.
My earliest soccer memory is my first grade friends teasing me that my park district team was named the "camels". They thought they (the "prairie dogs") were going to beat us. They didn't.
Other than soccer, my favorite sport to play is volleyball
When I have an hour of free time, I like to hang out with friends or chill in my room with Spanish music.
If I won a million dollars, I would donate half, pay off school loans, and save the rest of it. I am not one to spend money.
If someone would look at the songs on my iPod, I would be embarrassed for them to see I have the Muppet movie soundtrack.
It is not good for you, but I still eat pretty much anything that involves dark chocolate.
A place I would like to visit one day is Spain!
If you could eat dinner with three other people (living or dead), who would they be and why? Steven Curtis Chapman because he is one of my favorite artists since childhood. Agatha Christie because she is my favorite author. Professor Jeanette Banashak, because she is one of the most interesting people I've ever met.
Who is your favorite Bible character and why? Paul because he lived unashamedly for God.
When surfing the Internet, what website do you visit the most frequently? Facebook, Pinterest, and YouTube (the usual). Also a good amount of time on the Food Network.
What is something about you that other people don't know? I won't ever paint my nails any color other than a shade of red. Every other color just looks unnatural to me. Especially blue or green.
Who is your favorite Superhero and why? Quailman, he is one of the greatest cartoons from my childhood.
What cartoon character are you most like and why? I hate to admit it, but I love Phineas and Ferb. I'd be Ferb because he hardly ever talks.
After graduation, I would like to teach in a bilingual elementary classroom and travel to Spanish speaking counties during the summers.

Factors to Consider When Purchasing a Grill
You're looking forward to a delicious meal, hot off the grill. Now, all you need is the grill! But which of the many grills available do you choose? To decide on the grill that's right for you, think about things such as your lifestyle, available space, and budget when shopping for a grill. What factors are most important to you? There are a variety of different types of grills you can select, so you're sure to find the grill that meets your needs.
Gas Grills
Perhaps the most popular type of grill, gas grills are likely what you picture when you think of a grill. Natural gas grills require you to run a gas line from your house or liquid propane grills connect a propane tank to fuel the fire. Gas grills are convenient; once you have a source of energy established, you can be cooking in no time. You'll find a wide variety of sizes in gas grills, so you can allow your needs and your space availability to help you choose your new gas grill.
Electric Grills
Electric grills are convenient and can be used in many situations. One of the great things about electric grills is that the only source of energy they require is a standard electrical outlet. For that reason, an electric grill can be the perfect option for you if you are constrained by rules and regulations that prohibit gas grill usage.
Portable Grills
Portable grills are convenient for a variety of purposes. If you love to tailgate, a portable grill might be the one for you, as you can bring it to sporting or other outdoor events. If you have space limitations or will want to move your grill around your outdoor space depending upon your needs, a portable grill may also be the perfect choice.
Charcoal Grills
Often celebrated for the taste they impart to the food they cook, charcoal grills are the favored choice of many cooks. A charcoal, or BBQ, grill helps maintain and add to the flavor of your favorite foods. The distinct, smoke flavor is championed by many of those who enjoy barbeques.

I'm originally from Central America, became a Jew by choice about 20 years ago. I love to cook, travel, a fashionista at heart, I love clothes, reading, listening to music and browse the web. I consider myself well rounded, from jeans to gowns in a heart beat, from intellectual conversations to silly chatter with ease. I love to go on eco tours, having visited Belize, Tikal and hoping to do Machu Pichu some day. I also enjoy the big cities whether in Europe or Latin America. I can be a little scatter brain sometimes but I make it up with my kindness, generosity and good looks!! lol! I have two grown children, one mine, one his but both raised by me. They are married and I'm the proud "grandma" of three blonde blue eyed gorgeous little monkeys!! One more is on the way by my own son. I also have a 17 year old living at home getting ready to go to college this year. Yet, my grandma status does not stop me from engaging in all types of fun filled activities. I I run my own Real Estate firm and I would like to think I'm a popular girl as I keep myself busy with work, friends, events, parties, trips and volunteering. My social calendar is full but I do miss having a partner to share it all with. COULD THAT BE YOU!?? Let's find out, write me a line, I will respond to all emails.

So for my hypothetical sibset I'd love two boys and a girl.
At the moment I'm loving Leo and Finn for the boys.
What would you name the girl?
Leo , Finn and _____
I'm stuck with this because my girl favourites seem too long (Katharine, Sophie) or too plain (Anna).
I quite like Ruby, Lily (popular though), Eva. The name doesn't have to be short, but it does need to work with Leo and Finn.
Thanks for your ideas!My attempt at a blog is here
Sophie Alice Marilla
Ivy ~ Ciara ~ Eleanor ~ Zoe ~ Katharine ~ Eva ~ Cara ~ Elizabeth
Maxwell Arthur James
Vincent ~ Finn ~ Jack ~ Alexander ~ Leo ~ Zachary ~ Theodore

WAITSBURG - Waitsburg-Prescott fought hard, but DeSales was victorious in a five-game volleyball match between the Southeast 2B rivals Thursday.
W-P won the opener 25-18, but fell 25-15 and 25-16 in games two and three. A 25-23 barn-burner in Waitsburg-Prescott's favor forced a fifth game, but the Irish prevailed 15-10 in the tie-breaker.
"We seem to be slow starters, so when you lose the first game its an uphill battle the rest of the way," DeSales coach Lori Blanc said. "(Game four) could have gone either way, it was pretty much a trade off the whole way - we were just lucky there was a fifth game to break the tie."
After losing two games in a row, Waitsburg-Prescott gave all it had to make the comeback in game four.
"They were tough, both teams played hard," W-P coach Angie Potts said. "We had some consistency issues in the three games we lost, but the girls continued to fight.
"They (W-P) came back and played well in the fourth set," Potts said. "We'll keep working on getting our passing to where it needs to be and making sure our girls are reading what the hitters are doing."
Ronnie Hulce had 18 kills in the loss, along with 19 digs and 3 blocks. Kayla Huxoll led the way with 28 assists and 12 digs. Krystal Harris contributed six kills, 11 digs and 3 blocks. Dionna Baker and Rhiannon Chapman tied with five kills and six digs each. Jennifer Nichols had 14 digs.
Waitsburg-Prescott travels to Tri-Cities Prep Tuesday at 6 p.m. DeSales hosts Dayton at 6 p.m. Tuesday.

Planner hitches wants to reality
An unlimited budget would be nice, but that's not what most brides want when it comes to their wedding. "They want that fairy tale, the most magical, most special day in their life," said Steve Kemble, a lifestyle guru and celebrity wedding planner.
Kemble has orchestrated weddings on television for "Extreme Makeover: Wedding Edition," Style Network's "Whose Wedding Is It Anyway?" and "Married Away," and WE's "Platinum Weddings" and "Married by the In-Laws." He works with brides who crave extravagance and others who prefer things understated. He enjoys both. It's their vision, he said, and he's just helping them get their dream wedding. Kemble will host the Wedding Workshop on Oct. 4-5 in Oklahoma City, presented by Dolly Levi's Event Design Studio. The talk-show format will include topics on budget, gowns, transportation, personal finances, video, photography and almost every other subject related to weddings. "So many people think about the glitz and glamour, but you need all the components to put it together. We do it in a very fun way," he said. One topic at the workshop may keep couples from making a common mistake. "Most are not realistic about sitting down and doing a budget," Kemble said. "It is absolutely the most important thing. It's really hard for planners, florists, caterers to give you what you want unless you tell them how much you want to spend. You have to be honest about that." Couples who don't start with a realistic budget get into problems, he said. Planning a wedding is stressful enough without inviting even more frustrations. Another mistake couples make is not making the day about them, about what they want, Kemble said. A wedding isn't about impressing friends or dad's business associates. It shouldn't be the wedding the bride's mother never had. "It amazes me how many couples I talk to and it's almost like they're planning this wedding for all of their friends and all of their family. …They need to step back and think about what they want for their special day." While wedding trends come and go, Kemble said he's excited about several that bring a subtle, interesting aspect.

Adrian Peterson: 'I'm feeling good, and I'll be ready to roll Monday'
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
MANKATO, Minn. -- Adrian Peterson appeared to have a spring in his step on Saturday night, and why not?
It had been a full week since the Minnesota Vikings' All-Pro running back tweaked his left hamstring, which finally felt good enough for Peterson to return to extensive action in competitive drills.
"It was the second practice," Peterson said, speaking about the nature of the injury and how it happened for the first time.
"I basically hit the corner with a nice little sprint, and then I made an abrupt stop. If you know anything about running, that's something you just don't do as a runner.
"I made that one mistake, and it backfired on me. But I'm feeling good, and I'll be ready to roll Monday."
Peterson missed most or all of 10 full-squad practices after sustaining the injury on July 31. Coach Brad Childress had described it vaguely as "tightness," but it became obvious from the types of extra stretching Peterson was doing that the hamstring was the issue.
The Vikings are off on Sunday, giving Peterson's hamstring an extra day of rest after Saturday's extended workload. Prior to Saturday, Peterson had touched the ball only nine times in team (11-on-11) drills in eight days of camp.
"Is it tough?" Peterson said, repeating a reporter's question about the lost reps.
"Well, it's nothing like getting reps out there and being out there and actually going through the motion of making the cuts and different things like that. But I'll be out (on the field) Monday. I'm always full speed, so it really don't take me too long to get into my rhythm."
The one thing Peterson didn't do on Saturday was participate in "live" tackling drills. Coaches may hold him back in that regard until at least the preseason opener next Saturday at St. Louis.
Albert Young had been taking most of the No. 1 reps in Peterson's absence, with rookie Toby Gerhart rotating in.
"(Young) looked good," Peterson said. "All the young guys are looking good. Those guys are getting some opportunities to get some reps in there, and they're taking advantage of it."
Quick hits
• TE Visanthe Shiancoe sat out Saturday's night practice for unknown reasons. He was spotted walking with a trainer after practice, but no update was given on his status.
• RG Anthony Herrera sat out the night practice after dropping out in the morning with what coach Brad Childress believed were back spasms.
• Asher Allen worked extensively ahead of Lito Sheppard at right cornerback with the starting defense, and rookie Chris Cook rotated in some for Antoine Winfield on the left side. QBs Tarvaris Jackson and Sage Rosenfels both seemed to be targeting Sheppard during the red-zone period.
• The night practice ended on a fingertip catch by WR Bernard Berrian on a pass from Jackson, who finished 7-for-14 passing in team drills. Rosenfels was 7-for-13 and rookie Joe Webb 0-for-1.
• Peterson, on whether he's texted QB Brett Favre: "I'm sure he's got a lot of people texting him, so I'm letting him relax right now."

I like the ones by Almay and Neutrogena. I used to LOVE Pond's "Clean Sweep" towelettes. Are they still made?

I've been using the Ponds luminous towelettes, which are ok, but take 2 or 3 to get all the makeup off. Going to try the Olay age defy next, thanks for the list.

"Anything AMG can do, we can do better" seems to be the idea.
The word comes from M's head of product development, Albert Biermann, known in these parts for crushing the hopes and dreams of those who crave an AWD BMW M5 station wagon. "We've discussed it several times but we've never been able to make the business case," he said of his division building its very own automobile. "Everything we do has to make money. [But] from an engineering perspective, we have the skills and we'd love to do it."
What kind of vehicle that might be, he didn't say. Hell, the fuel source isn't even set in stone—for any M cars. "Our job is to sell emotion and fun using the technology that's socially acceptable at the time. Whether that's a combustion engine or an electric motor, we don't care," he said. And yes, there might even be a diesel in the cards—but not just yet. We'd never say never if the technology becomes available," Biermann said, "but right now we don't have the diesel technology to match the responsiveness of the new M5." [via Autocar]

All true for the mids and bass, but still so very far ahead of average among sub-$50 IEMs (except maybe the bass bloat)
I'm not really surprised by that Piston score. I expected it to score somewhere circa mh1 though to put things into perspective my first pairs of mh1c cost me $15 and the mh1 I got months into the hype still cost me like $25, so I can't just say "WOW, I have never heard anything like this for only 20 bucks".
Of course, the Piston's hype got a little bit out of hand with stuff like being the best sub-$100 iem, being better than all vsonics and that probably raised some expectations a bit too high.
I personally wasn't too impressed but I acknowledged that I can imagine someone liking them a lot if that's the type of sound he's looking for. My main issue with them was the bass. which is exactly the opposite of what I like - slow, lacking control and proper attack.
When writing the review that was pretty much my line of thinking - if only the sub-$25 MH1C supply on ebay hadn't run out, I would have been less impressed with the Pistons. I still prefer the MH1C, personally, but I think the Piston has more of a "wow" factor for the average listener.
BTW, the DN-2000 comparison was actually prompted by someone sending a PM asking whether the Piston is better .

Voorhees hosts emergency management exercise
March 18, 2014
By: David Mathis
Voorhees College shows its commitment to training future emergency management leaders by hosting its first emergency management full-scale exercise on Wednesday, March 26 at the Leonard E. Dawson Health and Human Resources Center beginning at 7 a.m.
The purpose of this exercise is to provide Voorhees students and participants with the knowledge, skills and abilities to handle emergency management hands-on ground operations when dealing with disasters. This exercise will also improve preparedness and response capabilities for chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive (CBRNE) hazards, whether accidental or intentional.
"This exercise will provide participants with something tangible to take back to their counties, colleges or schools, to correct any developing adverse trends that may impact resources and operations," said Rodney Boyd, assistant professor of emergency management at Voorhees.
The morning exercise will use a scenario that will result in disruptive and safety concerns based on a train colliding with a parked train in the town of Denmark.
Robert D. Steadman, South Carolina statewide interoperability coordinator for the Division of State Information Technology, will be the guest speaker for the afternoon exercise beginning at 3 p.m.
Participants of this event include the Orangeburg County Emergency Management Department, Lexington County Emergency Management Department, Denmark Police Department, Fort Jackson Emergency Operations Center, Denmark Fire Department, South Carolina State University Police Department and Voorhees faculty, staff and students.
Voorhees College is the only HBCU in South Carolina to offer a major in emergency management. Located not far from the Savannah River, which is a major site that processes and stores nuclear materials, and also other areas such as the Port of Charleston, the geographic location played a big part in Voorhees creating its emergency management program.
"Instead of trying to deal with disasters, emergency management facilitators try to eliminate them," Boyd said.

Marshal Dan Troop: I've been Marshal here a couple of years, but this is the first time I've been ashamed of my badge. Before I leave here one of two things is going to happen. Either I get a jury out of this crowd to try Bob Cawley or I drop my badge in the dirty sawdust where it belongs.

A Mechanicsburg teenager allegedly pistol-whipped a man while an accomplice held down the victim's girlfriend during an early morning robbery in Newberry Township last week, police reported.
Newberry Township Police said Tre Laquan Easter, 18, whose last known address is Garden Drive in Mechanicsburg, drove up to the couple's home in the 2000 block of Red Bank Road around 2 a.m. last Wednesday. The couple — Darren Robinson and Peyton Knopp — was sitting on the front porch, because their house was without power, when they saw Easter exit his vehicle, walk up to the home and pull out a handgun, police said. The man told police he had previously met Easter through a mutual acquaintance.
Easter stated, "Give it to me," and "Where's it at?" referring to a safe inside the home, charging documents state.
After threatening Robinson and hitting him on the head with his gun, Robinson, panicking, went inside to his room, where he opened the safe.
Easter then allegedly took approximately $500 from inside the safe. But before Easter could get away with the cash, Robinson tackled the burglar and brought him to the ground, police said.
When Easter's alleged accomplice heard fighting from outside, he entered the home and pushed Peyton onto the bed, holding her down against her will, police said. The accomplice put his hand over her mouth to keep her from screaming, but Peyton bit him between the thumb and pointer finger. The accomplice then grabbed a pillow and pushed it over her face before she was able to get him off of her, according to charging documents.
After the struggle, Easter and the accomplice left the home.
Easter was charged with robbery, simple assault, burglary, theft by unlawful taking and receiving stolen property. He was being held at Cumberland County Prison in lieu of $10,000 bail.

A couple of weeks ago, there was much celebration of a big day for the Development team here at MOO HQ; we reached the release day of our 100th Sprint. "100th Sprint, what on earth is that?" I hear you ask. Apart from being an online printing company do you also happen to participate in competitive athletics? No, unfortunately not. In the software development method we follow, a Sprint is the basic unit of development. The method is called agile development (ours is called Scrum), which consists of Sprints. The Sprints iteratively and incrementally help us build more and more of the remarkable products and features that in turn help you, the customers of MOO, give life to your remarkable ideas.
The developers at MOO live and breathe the Sprint cycle. Each Sprint lasts for two weeks. Tasks are distributed by our friendly neighbourhood Product Managers at the start of the Sprint, we go back to our caves and type away lines upon lines of code that make up the website and services. It is in fact a rather luxurious cave with lots of cake, a foosball table and the occasional beer.
Once the cake is all eaten up, the foosball scores are tallied (and the code has been finalized, obviously) it's testing time. Our priority here is to ensure that customers won't have any problems using it. This process lasts for three days, and after that, finally; new features for you to use turn up on the website!
This process is like laying a house brick by brick. Sprints help us have clear checkpoints, where we can unload our minds of the previous work, take a big breath, look back with satisfaction and set forward for the new finish line that lies ahead.
And so, with the steadiness of Aesop's Tortoise and the speed of the Hare, (which makes a bit of weird looking hybrid-creature) we've reached this momentous milestone in the journey, which we celebrated in true MOO style – with beer and pizza, of course!
We help our customers print things like Business Cards, MiniCards, and Letterheads, making it easy for them to share information about themselves or their business in the real world.
Don't miss out on special offers and discounts that we share with our subscribers!
We know that lots of you are great ambassadors for MOO and so we've been thinking of a way to say thank you. Which is why you can now actually earn money off your next order when you refer friends to MOO.Find out more

I've long-held that Jesus can not be severed from His words. They are intrinsically inseparable. Any attempt to do so eventually leads to a fractured view of both Jesus and His word(s). I've written a detailed article entitled "The Logos of The Gospel," some time ago. You can read it here.
Leonard Sweet and Frank Viola, in an article entitled "A Magna Carta for Restoring the Supremacy of Jesus Christ, a.k.a. A Jesus Manifesto for the 21st Century Church," said the following:
"Jesus Christ cannot be separated from his teachings. Aristotle says to his disciples, "Follow my teachings." Socrates says to his disciples, "Follow my teachings." Buddha says to his disciples, "Follow my meditations." Confucius says to his disciples, "Follow my sayings." Muhammad says to his disciples, "Follow my noble pillars." Jesus says to his disciples, "Follow me." In all other religions, a follower can follow the teachings of its founder without having a relationship with that founder. Not so with Jesus Christ. The teachings of Jesus cannot be separated from Jesus himself. Jesus Christ is still alive and he embodies his teachings. It is a profound mistake, therefore, to treat Christ as simply the founder of a set of moral, ethical, or social teaching. The Lord Jesus and his teaching are one. The Medium and the Message are One. Christ is the incarnation of the Kingdom of God and the Sermon on the Mount."
I appreciated this paragraph. Primarily because it distinguishes between a follower of Christ and a follower of… well… other things. Secondly, it reiterates my thoughts from the article cited above when it says, "The teachings of Jesus cannot be separated from Jesus himself," and "The Lord Jesus and his teaching are one." Frank and Leonard may mean something other than I do. I'm not sure. Perhaps they'll clarify it for us.
What if Jesus (The Logos) and His words (the logos) are one intrinsically? What if they comprised the same spiritual substance? Jesus and His words are more than one "in purpose." What more? We shall see. Some who deny the trinity say Jesus and the Father are one "in purpose" only, but not one in substance. But, the WESTMINSTER SHORTER CATECHISM puts it this way:
Question #6 – How many persons are there in the Godhead?
Answer – There are three persons in the Godhead: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; and these three are one God, the same in substance, equal in power and glory.
To put it another way, The three persons of the God-Head are co-equal, co-eternal and consubstantial. If I may make a bold proposition, I would take Frank and Leonard's statement just a bit further. I propose that Jesus (The Logos) and His words (the logos) are one intrinsically. They comprise the same spiritual substance. They are of equal Divine origin. They are consubstantial. To put it simply, they are "part" of one another. Before anyone makes the silly accusation that I am, in effect, adding another person to the Trinity, I'm not! I am saying, however, that the second person of the trinity (Jesus the Logos) and His words or teachings (the Logos) are of the same substance and therefore indivisible. It's as simple as this; Take Jesus from His words, and you're left with "another jesus." Take Jesus' words from Jesus and you're still left with "another jesus." As Frank and Leonard say above, "the medium and message are one." Further, when they say "Christ is the incarnation of the Kingdom of God and the Sermon on the Mount," I would, in like manner, extend the scope of that statement and say that "Christ is the incarnation of the Kingdom of God and the totality of the Old and New Covenant, the Scriptures, The Bible, and the Logos.
Is my proposition correct? Why or Why Not?

Help for Heroes Golf Day
• 1 May 2012 •
Heroes Golf Day – Stoke Park
Another gorgeous morning in London…not! After opening the curtains to see the rain pouring down as usual the army shorts had to be hidden under my waterproofs….gutting! A quick cup of coffee and some dutch courage, I loaded the car and headed to the impressive Stoke Park.
En route there was no hold up in the rain, in fact it was getting heavier and heavier. Getting up early to put my hair up in rollers hadn't been the greatest plan! Unfortunately I'm not one of these girls whose hair always looks flawless in fact I'm the opposite and have a tendency to resemble one of the thunder cats if exposed to certain weather.
As I drove down the long and winding entrance something caught my eye…it was the ducks walking around on the greens, which were pretty much underwater, never a good sign, although could provide the perfect excuse for any missed putts!
To be honest I didn't think there was much chance of us actually getting out onto the course, I felt awful for the organisers. They had put so much work into the day! But to my surprise when I walked into the club house, I was signed in and handed a Vpar electronic scorecard….we were going out to battle!!
It was lovely to see all the usual suspects…Anton du Beke Ben Shepherd, Charlotte Jackson, Chris Evans…all us golf nuts seem to stick together!
Unluckily for him, my manager Ashley had been roped into caddying for me which was great seeing as there was a buggy ban and my Wilson tour bag is pretty much the same size as me! Still pouring down, we headed to the 15th tee ready for the shotgun start. I was extremely happy to see that the pasty and beer stand had been setup at the 15th…they must know me too well. A quick beer and stretch and I'm ready to go. The rain firing into my eyes and dripping off my cap doesn't help with my first shot onto the par 3 but it somehow manages to find the green. It's always nice to get the first shot out of the way. You're in your own little world then!
Thankfully I had a very nice team, it makes a massive difference to the game if you're able to have a laugh and some banter along the way, especially in these conditions…all you could do is laugh!
After 4 of 5 holes I started to settle in, I found the greens hard to judge…I'm not used to factoring in the ball crossing water en route to the hole. Unbelievably there was a hint of sunshine and so I decided when we reached the first to get my legs out and put the waterproofs away! Help for Heroes socks and camouflage shorts seemed to be fitting golf attire for this event. After bringing out the shorts, I hit one of my best drives off the first which led to me winning the longest drive of the day…must have been the wind up my shorts
With a new found spring in my step, I finished the round with a respectable 27 points considering the conditions & the fact we were playing off of three quarter handicap. One of the highlights of the day was the Chinook flying over the course….pretty awesome, not something you see everyday!
I have to admit my legs got a little cold by the 18th, but it was worth it! We were all soaking wet and cold but shared a great sense of achievement that we had battled the conditions and played for all the troops!
Next thing was to dry off and transform myself for the evening…not a quick process, but with only 40 mins before dinner I tried for a new Horn record! I got back in good time but just missed the prize giving. I was very excited to have won the longest drive and the best dressed, it always lovely to win something, reminds me of the butterflies I used to get competing in tournaments.
A gorgeous 3 course dinner and an auction followed. The most amazing auction prize was a set of clubs made up from all the legends of the game including Woods, Nicklaus, Palmer, Monty, Player! Its one of those times I really wished I had the money to bid! The whole auction raised over £100k for Help for Heroes…an unbelievable achievement!

Virtual Tissue is modeled from data
The medical IT specialists use the NanoZoomer to evaluate huge quantities of data from tissues for their research. For example, Dr. Niels Grabe and his team used data to model virtual skin tissue. "On a computer model of human skin tissue we can test whether certain substances are toxic, for example," explains Dr. Grabe. "In the future, this could make it easier to develop potential new drugs."
Hamamatsu recognized the many possible applications early on, so that new technological markets have now been opened up for them. "We are happy to have found two partners in the Heidelberg Institute of Pathology and the Institute of Medical Biometry and Informatics with whom we can develop concrete clinical uses and new applications for research," said Hideo Hiruma, Managing Director of Hamamatsu Photonics, Japan.

Jason Lee, Angie Harmon Pilots Picked Up by TNT
That's exactly what TNT did yesterday with the pickup of three new pilots: 'Delta Blues,' 'Rizzoli and Isles' and the still-untitled alien-invasion series from producer Steven Spielberg. Each show received 10-episode orders, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
'Delta Blues,' from producer George Clooney, stars Jason Lee as a Memphis cop who moonlights as a musician and still lives at home with his mother. The Boston-set 'Rizzoli,' based on a series of mystery novels by Tess Gerritsen, stars Angie Harmon and Sasha Alexander as detectives, with Lorraine Bracco playing Harmon's tough, but loyal mother.
TNT picks up more dramas
The cable network has picked up a new science fiction series about aliens overtaking humanity starring Noah Wyle, a detective series starring Angie Harmon and (surprise!) a cop drama starring Jason Lee.
The "untitled alien invasion series" (wouldn't it be a big bowl of hilariousness if that were the actual title?) will star Wyle as the leader of a band of human resisters who aspire to take back the Earth from an alien race that has laid waste to humanity. Since this is being produced by Steven Speilberg, how about calling it Close Encounters of the Ass Kicking Kind?
Alfre Woodard Sings the 'Delta Blues'
From Warner Horizon and Smokehouse, in conjunction with Clooney, 'Delta Blues' will follow the life of Dwight who spends his days on the force and nights as an Elvis impersonator. As we recently reported, Jason Lee has accepted the role of Dwight, while Sam Hennings, Robyn Lively and Leonard Howze will play Dwight's partner, ex-wife and co-worker, respectively. Celia Weston rounds off the cast as Dwight's mother, with whom he lives.
Three Join TNT's 'Delta Blues'
According to the article, DJ Qualls will be joining the series, which follows the life of Memphis police officer Dwight Hendricks (Jason Lee), who moonlights as an Elvis impersonator. Qualls, who has a forged a career in film ('Road Trip,' 'Delta Farce') and television ('Lost,' 'Scrubs') on the strength of his human dandelion looks, will play Dwight's policeman protege. The role should be familiar ground for Qualls, as the two previously worked together on 'My Name Is Earl.'
Three Join Jason Lee in TNT's 'Delta Blues'
According to the Hollywood Reporter, 'Blues' follows Dwight Hendricks (Lee), who who spends his Memphis days on the police force and his nights impersonating Elvis Presley.
Hennings, who will play Whitehead, Dwight's partner on the force, has appeared in numerous movie and television roles, most notably 'CSI,' 'Dollhouse,' 'The Aviator,' 'Havoc,' starring Anne Hathaway, and the Hallmark Channel's 'Elevator Girl.'
Jason Lee to sing the Delta Blues
Well, at least they grabbed someone good for the role. My Name Is Earl's Jason Lee is going to play the lead character, and I can definitely picture that. Now I just wonder if he's going to dress up as younger, thinner Elvis (circa 1959) or older, wider Elvis (circa 1975).
The pilot will be directed by Clark Johnson, who worked on The Shield.
Jason Lee Joins TNT's 'Delta Blues,' Earns Major Karma Points
Lee will star as Dwight Hendricks, a Memphis police officer who lives with his mother and lives a second life as an Elvis impersonator. Clark Johnson ('The Shield,' 'The Wire') will direct the pilot, written by Liz M. Garcia and Joshua Harto.
George Clooney, Elvis, the cops and TNT
But the point is this: he may be a major movie star today, but George knows and appreciates television. That could be why George Clooney's behind Delta Blues, a cop drama that TNT has just picked up.
I use the term drama loosely, because it's something goofier than a straight drama. The lead character is an Elvis Presley impersonator when he's not working for the Memphis Police Department. One more thing: Like Elvis, he honors his mother... and lives with her. Does that make him a mama's boy? I guess we'll have to wait and see.
TNT Orders 'Delta Blues' From George Clooney
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the series, which is set in Presley's home town of Memphis, will be co-executive produced by Clooney and his collaborators at Smokehouse Pictures.
TNT & TBS have big plans for original content
Among many announcements from TNT at upfront week was the stated goal to dramatically increase original content. The network aims to eventually reach 80% original content, with plans for three original nights a week by 2010. How are they going to reach those goals? With cops. Lots and lots of cops.
We've already heard about the new Donnie Wahlberg DEA series, Morse Code. Three other cop shows are in development at the network, including Delta Blues, from executive producer George Clooney, which follows the story of a Memphis cop who does a little Elvis impersonating on the side. 24 co-creator Joel Surnow is also joining the TNT family with an as yet untitled series built around an ATF agent. Finishing off the law enforcement party is Angel City. Written by L.A. cop Will Beall and Barry Schindel, Angel City is being compared to Adam-12. Read on past the jump for the less cuff-heavy goings on over at TNT.

Weir and Behar Rise Above 'Nasty' Talk at the Olympics
Posted on Mar 3, 2010
Joy Behar was all kinds of brassy sympathy on her show Tuesday night as she chatted with U.S. figure skater Johnny Weir about how "two Canadian commentatehs" clearly couldn't get ready for Weir's unique brand of fierceness on ice during a regrettable moment of Olympic reportage. "That's nasty," said Behar after relaying their on-air slurs. Weir, who brought a Marie Antoinette-themed coiffure and his diplomatic attitude about the unfortunate incident to Behar's set, concurred. "That's very nasty," he said. They also agreed on the obvious fact that Weir is "fabulous," as his hairdo only further demonstrated. —KA

Thomas Martinez, 28, arrested following a recent homicide that left local dead
The Roswell Police Department secured an arrest warrant for Thomas Martinez, 28, on charges of second-degree murder for the slaying of Arthur Contreras, 22. The homicide occurred Wednesday around 10 p.m.
Sgt. Ray Sharp first notified dispatch about shots fired in the area around Bland Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. The RPD then received additional calls about shots fired. Police responded. In the affidavit of criminal complaint, lead investigator Detective Robert Scribner's description of the scene in the 200 block of Bland is stark: there was "a body lying across the steps of the front porch, with the head on the porch and feet on the sidewalk."

Get (Almost) All of Your Downloaded PSP Games on Your Vita
Now as anyone who has a Vita right now knows, the PSN Store for it is a bit…well, "lacking". While Sony assures us that more content will be delivered soon, there IS a work around to get pretty much any PSP game that you downloaded through the PSN to work on your Vita NOW!! It's really quite simple, and it's a bit of a wonder that Sony didn't bother to tell people about this on their own. The only caveat to this little work around is that you absolutely need a PlayStation 3 to make it work – you can't use Sony's MediaGo software to the same effect. All you do is simply download the games to your PS3, and then transfer them over to the Vita. While it may not be the prettiest solution, the fact remains that it DOES indeed work, and it will help out those of you that have some good games that aren't "officially" ready for the Vita yet.
Here's the list I have so far, and I'll update it as I go :)

MAC Mineralize Volcanic Ash Exfoliator Review
I thought I'd revisit with MAC Volcanic Ash Exfoliator today considering MAC has now made it permanent. I've been waiting for Mineralize Volcanic Ash Exfoliator to be added to the general catalog for too LONG. Since the original launch, when it was packaged in a tub, I was in love with it.
And here we are several years later with new packaging and an endless supply we can easily get our hands on. Fond farewell to my hoarding away bottles of this stuff.
