True story: on a stormy night not too long ago, a man—we'll call him Jake—met up with friends for a few rounds at 2 J's Cocktail Lounge. Upon arriving, he learned he had just missed an incredible bar fight between the bar staff and a well-sauced jerk. The bouncers had thrown the drunk out in the rain. Ten minutes into Jake's first beer, a rain-soaked patron ran inside the bar, shouting for everyone to go outside. The tires on every car in the parking lot were slashed, not to mention a few smashed windows. Every car had been vandalized except Jake's—he had parked across the street. Next thing he knew, he was behind the wheel of his car, with an enormous—and wasted—man by his side, who demanded they hunt down the culprit. As they ran through red lights and ignored stop signs—the passenger's orders—Jake grew worried. But then the man pulled out a gun and said, "If shots are fired, just take off, man." There was now an enormous, pissed-off drunk man next to him, and he had a gun. As they headed south on Harbor, just past Orangethorpe, they spotted the tire-slasher ordering a cheeseburger at an In-N-Out. They illegally zoomed across an empty intersection, and the man rushed in, gun in the air, and forced the burger bandit to the ground. Soon after, the cops arrived, and Jake learned that the drunk goon who forced him to break about a dozen moving violations at gunpoint in the pouring rain was an off-duty cop. 120 W. Houston Ave., Fullerton, (714) 871-9665.THE HUB CAFE
If you can snag a seat on their outdoor patio where the bands play, then this is perhaps the sweetest OC spot to just kick back and savor live music. The outdoor thing is a big lure, but the Hub is also eclectic enough to book everything from punk rock to coffeehouse folkies to bands who do that "emo" stuff. A major player in downtown Fullerton's recent club explosion and conveniently located behind the Reagan Years, OC's coolest video arcade, which is also the perfect way to wait out band set changes. 124 E. Commonwealth Ave., Fullerton, (714) 871-2233.BOOK SMARTS
One of the best Latino bookstores en los Estados Unidos is now going national. Librería Martínez, the downtown Santa Ana intellectual inn run by the gregarious-to-a-fault bookkeeper/barber/cultural ambassador Rueben Martínez, is expanding to Latino suburbs across the nation. The first branch opened in Lynwood this month; the two-story building is the country's largest Spanish-language bookstore. The original Santa Ana location will remain open, but Sr. Martínez (please, call him Rueben) probably won't be in every day now that he's running his mini-empire—plans are to expand to at least 10 locations. While happy that Martínez will finally find the financial success he deserves, we cannot also help but feel a little bit blue: Orange County will no longer be privy to Martínez engaging in conversation like a long-lost uncle with customers, partly trying to make a sale but mostly intent on instilling in them and everyone within a one-mile radius a passion for knowledge. Buena suerte, Sr. Martínez, and here's hoping that other cities will appreciate you with the same love we always will. 1110 N. Main St., Santa Ana, (714) 973-7900.STUDS
Downtown Huntington is a teeming petri dish of idiocy and boardshorts, but buried in the middle is the Electric Chair, seemingly a teenage wasteland designed to equip chests with studded bras and butt pomaded heads with Hot Topic. Still, whoever buys the records there has some finely tuned taste: enough to know what's good, but not quite enough to catch every bargain that leaks through. Pick up something lacey and something spiky on the way out. 410 Main St., Huntington Beach, (714) 536-0784.BAR FIGHT
The Little Knight, a.k.a. "The Little Fight," in Costa Mesa features a possessive clientele—"This is my bar, buddy! Go on back to the 909!" is always a crowd-pleaser. The Little Knight is home to OC's toughest testosterone mofos. Still, that shouldn't prevent you from pulling up a chair and letting Tony—one of OC's most prominent bartenders gone wild, known for jumping on the bar and screaming indecipherable proclamations—serve you Jack and Cokes that put other bars' Cokes with a drip of Jack to shame. And if you still haven't seen enough of the macho, ex-jock, dude-my-car-is-bigger-than-yours brotherhood, then head over to Cassidy's in Newport, better known as "Smashiddy's" or "Catch a Disease" and glimpse tattoos of the finest flames, sparrows, spider webs and Gothic lettering in the county. 436 E. 17th, Costa Mesa, (949) 646-6650.WHAT GOES AROUND BASICALLY JUST GOES AROUND
Isn't vinyl just the best petrochemical? Take vinyl records, for instance: not only do they often sound better and warmer than their CD counterparts and come in large colorful jackets, the artwork of which is actually large enough to appreciate, but vinyl is also an insulator against atomic radiation, which could be good news in the event of nuclear attack for Tom Harris, the owner of Goat Hill Records. He's surrounded by so much vinyl in his packed shop that you can barely find him most days. And we're not talking thrift-shop vinyl here, but prime stuff—cool jazz, obscure rock, gritty country, sultry soundtracks and so much more—in eat-off-it clean shape and for remarkably fair prices. For those who aren't turntable-enabled, Tom also stocks stacks of quality used CDs. Goat Hill Records, 1920 Harbor Blvd., Costa Mesa, (949) 646-8551.CHAIN REACTION

The playoffs loomed in April 2006, yet Carmelo Anthony was benched for a game because his coach, George Karl, said Anthony "didn't deserve to be out there."
Anthony had gone 17 consecutive games with five rebounds or less. "Anybody that knows basketball knows that Melo's got to develop the other aspects of his game," Karl said at the time.
That season, Anthony averaged 4.9 rebounds per game.
This season, Anthony is averaging a career-high 8.4 rebounds entering tonight's home game against Toronto. Anthony reiterated Monday he will try to play, after receiving a half-hour of treatment on his bruised right elbow.
Anthony leads all NBA small forwards in rebounding and is tied for 21st overall.
"I think it's focus," Anthony said.
"I know I can average double-digit rebounds."
His 8.4 average is skewed a bit because he had only three rebounds Sunday before leaving in the second quarter because of the elbow injury. Six times this season, Anthony has logged a double-double — also tops for NBA small forwards — and Denver is 5-1 in those games. Included is a win four days ago, when Anthony grabbed 10 rebounds at Minnesota — with five offensive boards, a season high.
"He's aggressive," teammate Chauncey Billups said. "I've been seeing him down there on the offensive glass, grinding, playing so hard.
Anthony has improved annually since the woeful 4.9 total, but he's making his biggest move yet this season after averaging a career-high 7.4 boards last season. Much of Anthony's evolution occurred overseas, when he seemed to fully embrace the importance of rebounding and defense while playing power forward on the U.S. Olympic team this past summer.
In Beijing, Team USA assistant coach Jim Boeheim, Anthony's coach at Syracuse, said, "The international game is so physical, and he's probably our most physical guy, him and Dwyane Wade."
And the day he won the gold, Anthony said, "I've got to take this momentum, this confidence, into the season."
He has been a man of his word.
Nuggets assistant coach Adrian Dantley said Anthony has been more adept at utilizing his "quick first hop," which gets him to the offensive boards much, well, quicker. Anthony also has embraced the basketball fundamental of putting a body on an opponent, which sounds simple, but during the fray of a rebound — and with the enticement of starting the fast break — that's not always the case.
"The thing our guys sometimes don't understand is — when we rebound, we run," said Karl, whose 12-6 team is tied for first place in the Northwest Division. "It's when we don't rebound, that's when we don't run. They think leaking, cheating out, trying to get ahead of the ball — without fundamentally ending the play — helps us run. It doesn't. There are moments in the game that you can leak, but we've all abused that privilege way too often in the past, and at times this year too."
Any analysis of the Nuggets' rebounding must include the fact that Marcus Camby is no longer a Nugget. Anthony had been a teammate of the current Clippers center since 2003-04, and Camby annually averaged double-digit rebounds.
With a smile, Anthony said: "Oh yeah, he was stealing my rebounds, man. I told him that in preseason — 'Now I don't have to worry about you stealing my rebounds anymore.' (This season), I just had to pick up the slack."
And Nene, Camby's replacement in the starting lineup, speaks highly of Anthony's dedication but also feels that he and Kenyon Martin should sometimes get an "assist" on an Anthony rebound.
"(Anthony) reads the big men — we do the dirty job, hold the big men, push those guys out and Carmelo has open rebounds," Nene said, also with a smile. "That's what happens. We do the dirty work, he gets the clean rebounds."
The comments showcase a newfound commitment to teamwork among the Nuggets, which was the theme of training camp, and then magnified when Billups came to town.
In recent seasons, the Nuggets treated defense like a kid treats asparagus on the dinner plate. Now, the Nuggets are a much better defensive team — and one of the Nuggets' most-improved defenders has become a weapon on the boards.

Toronto at Denver
7 p.m. tonight, ALT, KCKK 1510 AM
Spotlight on Jose Calderon: The Spaniard is the marquee point guard in Toronto after the team traded T.J. Ford in the offseason. Calderon is second in the league in assists (9.6) and first in assists-per-turnover (5.0). Only twice all season has he made three or more turnovers in a game. And he has yet to miss a free throw (43-for-43).
Nuggets: Forward Carmelo Anthony received treatment Monday for a right elbow contusion and is probable. Of the injury to the elbow on his shooting arm, Anthony said, "Some days are better than ever — so you never know what you're going to get." . . . The Nuggets have won six of the past seven meetings with the Raptors in Denver, including four in a row since the 2004-05 season. . . . Forward Kenyon Martin blocked four shots Sunday vs. Houston. In the past five games, he has averaged 2.6 blocks.
Raptors: Forward Chris Bosh is third in the NBA with 26.8 points per game. No Raptor has finished a season higher than fourth (Vince Carter with 25.7 in 1999-2000). . . . Raptors coach Sam Mitchell was an assistant under Nuggets coach George Karl with the Milwaukee Bucks in 2002-03.

Update on Juan JoséJuan is 36 years old, married and has three children. He and his brothers have been doing agricultural work and raising cattle since they were children. In his free time he used to help his father in his carpentry workshop. At 15 years of age Juan decided to devote himself completely to carpentry.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

When a ball gets tossed around… You must whippet!
It will hardly touch the ground… With this whippet!
It will never get away… From this whippet!
Now whippet good!
When a ball gets tossed around… You must whippet!
It will hardly touch the ground… With this whippet!
It will never get away… From this whippet!
Now whippet good!
Huge yard, huge ball, small dog.
He may be small (?) but he 's big enough to get the job done !!!
Best volleyball player I've seen in a long time! :)
What a talent!
Love the bank shot off the tree.
yeh, totally!!
aaaaggghh!! I love eet!!
What a smart pup!
Happy, happy goggie. I loff eet.
Another FANTASTIC pet name to file away for a future pup … or, heh-heh, a horse!
Simply awesome!
I bet the pup gets quite upset if the ball goes over the fence. I can just picture it waiting impatiently while its owner retrieves the ball: "Come on, what's taking you so long?!"
I was thinking of this too – I can just imagine a barooing whippet staring at the green ball on the other side of the fence…
Go forward.
Move ahead.
Try to deflect it.
It's not too late
for this whippet.
Whippet good.
(Shouldn't that be a red ball, though?)
P.S. If I ever get a whippet, I'd have to name her Devo.
I HAVE a whippet, but we didn't she was one when we got her or that would have been her name. Or Deva, since she's a girl… :)
I have a T-shirt with a picture of a whippet, wearing one of those red flower-pot hats that the Devo boys used to wear, with the slogan "Whippet Good". Even though at the time I got it, my brother's young whippet was anything *but* good. More of a "whippet of mass destruction" sort of puppy.
I love the different games that dogs play. I was working with one of our shelter dogs last week and tried to teach him fetch. His version of the game was that I threw the tennis ball. He ran over to where the ball landed, stood over it and barked. Apparently he thinks the game is "help the stupid human find the ball."
I'm pretty sure that "fetch" is just a dog's way of saying "Human! You dropped this! I am bringing it back to you!" until they're tired and then it's like "This is the last time. Don't drop it again or I am not going to go get it!"
I think you're right. But it was so funny to see him running over and then just standing there and barking. At one point I heard laughter and saw that a group of kids on a field trip were watching the game.
Strange! I got an awesome Maru vid instead of a whippet!
Always wanted a whippet named Devo :)
He doesn't need anybody he can have fun all by himself.
Just him and his ball.
His name is RADISH?? :lol:
Dun dun dun dun DA
(to the melody of The Song)
I LOVE WHIPPETS! Including my beautiful Meggie.
Awesome game of ball there
Thats not a full bred whippet though- its gotta be half whippet half german shepard.
We have a whippet and have been around lots of them.
Ours doesn't quite play like that- if it doesnt squeak she couldn't care less.
Don't let the fact that her ears stand up confuse you. Not all whippets have "perfect" ears. In fact, Radish thinks hers are perfect the way they are!
Sorry to disappoint, but Radish certainly is a pure bred whippet., and very accomplished is other sports too. She just likes to play ball.
I love whippets! More whippets please.
Also, awesome use of the tree at one point in there.
If only my dog could do that with a ball, and I had a yard that big, a lot of my problems would be solved!!!

women in orient
Seen by Christian Lacroix
The exhibition catalogue: "Women in Orient seen by Christian Lacroix', is an invitation to discover the ancient art of fashion of the women of the Near East.
"It is an anthem to women, a tribute to those who over the centuries have sought to create ways to beautify themselves or simply to exist within a society that has long marginalised them. By their hands, their actions, their tastes and talents, they have given a part of themselves to fabrics and silk or cotton threads, by designing each piece as a work of art." Hana Al-Banna Chidiac, exhibition curator

Sideboard, ca. 1795–1805
Philadelphia or Baltimore
Mahogany, satinwood, silver, copper, verre églomisé with yellow poplar, white pine, mahogany; 65 1/2 x 89 x 31 in. (166.4 x 226.1 x 78.7 cm)
Purchase, Joseph Pulitzer Bequest and Mitchel Taradash Gift, 1945 (45.77)
Many of the motifs found in the sideboard's panels of marquetry and verre églomisé were taken directly from Thomas Sheraton's Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer's Drawing-Book (1793). Sheraton (1751–1806), an English cabinetmaker and drawing instructor, influenced numerous American furniture manufacturers through this publication, which was imported all along the eastern seaboard.
Although sometimes imported from England, these small marquetry panels were also made locally and conveyed a sense of patriotism during the early decades of American independence.

Dayton International Airport recorded 1 inch of snow yesterday, said Storm Center 7 Meteorologist McCall Vrydaghs. This breaks the previous record of 0.2 inches set in 1917.
However, this is not the earliest snowfall of an inch or more, she said. That record was set Oct. 19, 1989, with a total of 4.8 inches.

There are several treatment options for Stage I ductal carcinoma of the breast. Which particular option is available to you depends on certain factors – your age, tumor size and other characteristics, your breast size and shape, and your personal goals of treatment.

Dear All,
The first orders MULTIGRADE ART 300 from distributors around the world leave the factory this week. So it now depends on shipping times and reseller orders and shipments. Second week in May is my guess in North America, this week in the UK, next week to most of Europe, late May into Australia.

I was very pleased with the hotel.
It was chosen as I wanted somewhere near the train station and the city centre, and somewhere cheap as we would not be spending a lot of time there. The best bit was the staff who were all amazing - they were friendly and professional, nothing was too much trouble. One of us left something in the room after check out, and the reception staff member kindly went to have a look in the room for us.

Great location budget stay
Staff were really friendly.
Great location over the road from the main shopping centre and the train station. Just 20 mins walk from the Royal armouries and the University. Bed was really comfortable and room was quite homely considering it is a basic accommodation. Bedroom was spotlessly clean. My only problem was that I could see under the toilet rim really needed proper cleaning and there was a very loud buzzing noise from the bathroom light but this was a minor thing that didn't bother me too much. Have stayed in 5 star hotels with the same problems so fine considering the price. Was surprisingly quiet too.

State Championship Basketball
FORT COLLINS — Contrary to popular belief, there is a girls basketball team at Faith Christian.
The Lady Eagles have been overshadowed by the boys team at their school. But not on Saturday night.
Playing before the Faith Christian boys team took to the court in search of a fifth consecutive Class 3A championship, the Lady Eagles captured their second state title (first since 2000) with a 49-44 victory over Eaton at Colorado State's Moby Arena.
"We were eager to get out there and prove it," said senior Abby Chapman, whose 17-point performance earned her The Denver Post's tournament MVP citation. "We were eager to prove to ourselves that we were a good team and that we could do this."
It was the second straight title-game defeat for the Reds (25-2), who earlier this season beat Faith Christian 60-50.
Saturday's meeting produced few runs by either team. The 33-29 lead the No. 9-seeded Lady Eagles (20-7) carried into the fourth quarter set up for a dramatic finish. But just two minutes into the fourth quarter, Eaton lost a vital offensive cog in Leah Cheney.
"I think that frustrated them a little bit," Chapman said.
The Lady Eagles' lead grew to 42-34, but they knew the inevitable run by Eaton was coming. With 2:30 left, Eaton received back-to-back baskets from Kailey Kaiser and Shelby Edens. Momentum was going the Reds' way moments later, when Faith Christian's Brooklyn Long was called for traveling on a brekaway after the Lady Eagles had broken the Reds' full-court press.
But any momentum the Reds had was squandered because of their struggles at the free-throw line. The Reds had ample opportunities to shine at the line, but they made only 20-of-39 free throws.
That was the difference.
"We missed 19 and out of that, we only needed six," said Eaton coach Todd Hernandez. "Of those 19 we missed, if we make 33 percent of those, we are state champions right now."
In addition to Chapman's 17 points for Faith Christian, senior Abigail Hegarty contributed 11 points before fouling out. Long added nine points for the Lady Eagles.
"Probably 'ugly' could define a lot of our season," said Faith Christian coach Rick Long, who used a full-court press the second time around against the Reds. "The truth is, we went back and looked at the film of our first game (with Eaton) until the early hours and realized how badly we actually played at their gym.
"I told the girls we are a different team. We are a better team."

Robbery goes flakyComment on this story
Cape Town - Four men were arrested on Friday after an attempted armed robbery at a pie shop in Woodstock, Cape Town police said.
Warrant Officer November Filander said the men were spotted acting suspiciously outside the shop, on the corner of Victoria road and Roodebloem street.
When a police patrol approached the men, one of them fired several shots. Officers returned fire, wounding one of the men.
Two of the men were arrested outside. The other two were found hiding in the shop and also arrested.
A 9mm pistol was confiscated. A white VW Golf, believed to be the getaway vehicle, was left at the scene.
No money was taken from the shop and no officers or bystanders were wounded.
The gang would be charged with attempted armed robbery, attempted murder and illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.
They would appear in the Cape Town Magistrate's Court on Monday. - Sapa

I want to strongly encourage you to make a call today – in the next hour – it takes two minutes. I have already made my call. Check out the link below.
Even if you don't live in Kansas. The Governor needs to hear that eliminating the KAC is not a good move. The state will lose an additional 1.2 M in matching funds and thousands of folks, including those in our region will be affected. The creation of a private agency to fund the arts in Kansas will only compete with the dollars already being raised in the state for the arts organizations. Please make the call.
Thank you.

19th February
At the Brit Awards in London, Michael's first ever live TV performance in England for over 20 years, is interrupted by Pulp lead singer, Jarvis Cocker, who runs across the stage while Michael sings 'Earth Song' with over 60 children.
Cocker was, it later emerged, protesting at the supposed 'quasireligious' nature of Michael's performance. Michael later expressed his discontent over the incident, however, the controversy created by the performance led to another rise in the 'History' album sales, putting the album back in the top 10 in Europe.
Then, as Michael disappeared into a corridor of glowing white light, Irish singer, songwriter, author and political activist Bob Geldof appears to present Michael with a special Artist of a Generation Award for which he reads the following introductory speech:
"Any words one speaks or writes are sort of redundant in the face of what we've just seen and heard. He is probably the most famous person in the planet, God help him. He has also sold more records than anybody in the planet. And he has also written, recorded and performed some of the most glorious music in the pop canon. So, along with all the goff written about him, it is probably one such justification that he's continually referred to as the King of Pop. […] They came up with the Artist Of A Generation award to give to him. But Michael Jackson has been making music literally since he was a baby. So, what generation? At least three had been listening to him already. And who will they give it to next year? Or is it the award in itself a one-off like the man himself? Because childhood prodigy to adult genius, when Michael Jackson sings, it is with the voice of angels, and when his feet move, you can see God dancing. So, tonight, the BRITs Artist Of A Generation is: Michael Jackson."
On receiving the special award, Michael declares the following:
"I love you. Thank you – thank you BRITs Awards and Sir Bob Geldof. I'm humbled by this award. It is especially important coming from my wonderful family in the United Kingdom. You provided me with so much love and you've given me your loyalty and your support throughout my entire career, and a special thanks to Paul Russell… [To chanting fans] I love you.. I love you.. I love you all and especially, I love all my fans very much. Thank you."

This article is taken from The Visual Documentary Facebook page, which publishes facts from one of the most comprehensive books on the King of Pop and the only book to be authorised by Michael himself.
It's written by the founder of MJWN and friend of Michael's, Adrian Grant and we thank him for helping us remember the special moments in Michael's life. We encourage everyone to follow The Visual Documentary on Facebook.

© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY — The second wave of a multi-agency crime sweep through Dougherty County has been successful, said Capt. Michael Persely with the Albany Police Department, adding 26 arrests to Wednesday's tally of 31.
Persely said the arrests stemmed from widely varied charges including probation violations, weapons offenses, drug charges and aggravated assault warrants.
Law enforcement agents from the city and county, as well as from around the state, collaborated in the two-day FACT or Facing Albany Crime Together operation, Persely said.
According to officials, the agencies included the Albany-Dougherty Drug Unit, the Albany Police Department, Dougherty County Police, Dougherty County Sheriff's Office, Georgia Department of Corrections probation, the Albany Gang Task Force, the State Board of Pardons & Parole, Albany State University Police, Department of Juvenile Justice and the U.S. Marshall's Fugitive Task Force.
"Coming back on the second day at a different time caught a lot of people off guard," Persely said. "We're not always routine, but we will change out our strategy."
Persely said the second wave of FACT concentrated on sex offenders and their compliance with stringent parole conditions, as well as individuals classified by the Georgia Department of Corrections as "high risk subjects" presenting a possible security threat. According to Persely, high risk could apply to anyone associated with violent street gangs, motorcycle gangs or any other segment of organized crime.
"Increased police presence does have a significant impact upon crime," Persely said. "We really don't believe in doing quantity work. We want to do quality work, so if we make quality arrests, we can have an increased impact against crime."

Amazing Horsewoman!
Has anyone seen this video? It is amazing! Makes me want a horse to ride backback through a field...ok...my dreams aside, here's the link to the video!
awwwww!! That was beyond sweet :)) I'm simply amazed, that horse is wonderful!! Thank you for sharing!
Yeah. It made me tear up a bit!
Unfortunately Roxy became cast in her stall while late in her pregnancy and couldn't be saved, not could the foal. Wonderful video though.
I think that mare just died recently, didn't she?
Here's the details of Roxy's untimely demise.
Just watched it again for like the 10th time! That mare is just so happy to do what Stacy says, she is so relaxed , so confident that none of the noise means anything to her. Stacy is so fair and so kind , man , it's a joy to watch that kind of teamwork.
I LOVE that clip!! She was in town a couple years ago, but I missed her clinic (had to work) :( I regret it every time I watch this video.

"Land of the Lost" Premiere Red-Carpet Report
- Photo: Invision/AP1 of 9
By Corey Podell and Saryn Chorney
Time to get lost! Will Ferrell and a few ferocious pals have been travelling the globe to promote his new movie "Land of the Lost." The soon-to-be blockbuster hits theaters on June 5, but Wonderwall caught up with the cast and some familiar fans at the Los Angeles premiere last week.
Is Will Ferrell the funniest leading man throughout all of space and time? Perhaps. But more importantly, the actor claims, "The scariest creature in 'Land of the Lost' is ... me."
And the scariest thing he ever ate? "The cornea of a reindeer. After filming that, I immediately got lost for a week and a half," said Ferrell, in reference to his recent stint on "Man Vs. Wild."

I would guess that the issue with your Sonnensheins was, as you suggested, that they sat too long on the shelf without being charged. From what I've read, the design life for SLA batteries is much longer when used with a float charger.
Here's an example of a DIY LiPo conversion: http://andycaus.wordpress.com/2013/0...po-conversion/ With LiPo batteries, you can specify discharge rate. But it might be best (for the life of the flash) to keep the discharge rate within the SLA spec.
In the end, a lot depends on how you plan to use the flash. LiPo batteries might be best for infrequent use or if you walk around with the power pack. But if, like me, you're planning to use this as a portable monolight for amateur use, it's tough to beat the inexpensive SLA batteries.

PPP's newest national poll finds Mitt Romney leading the Republican candidate field, although not by a particularly substantial amount. He's at 21% to 17% for Jeb Bush, 15% for Ben Carson, 11% for Scott Walker, 9% each for Ted Cruz and Mike Huckabee, 7% for Chris Christie, 4% for Rand Paul, and 2% for Rick Perry.
Romney's leading based on a formula that sounds pretty similar to a lot of 2012 polls. He isn't the top choice among 'very conservative' voters, getting 16% to Cruz's 19% and Carson's 18%. And he isn't the top choice among moderates either, getting 22% to Bush's 28%. But where he does have a substantial advantage is with 'somewhat conservative' voters, the center of the Republican primary electorate, where he gets 27% to 18% each for Bush and Carson.
If Romney doesn't run for President and his supporters are reallocated to their second choices, Bush leads with 21% to 16% for Carson, 14% for Walker, 12% for Huckabee, and 10% for Cruz.
Here are the winners, losers, and in betweeners from this poll:
-The biggest winner has to be Scott Walker. His 11% standing appears to be the first time he's registered at double digits in a national poll. He's reached that level of support despite having the lowest name recognition of any candidate we tested, which is a pretty good indication that when voters get to know him they're coming to like him. Walker's near 3:1 favorability rating among those who have heard of him is second only to Carson. Things are headed in the right direction for Walker.
-The other big winner is Ben Carson. Despite being the only person in this mix never to have served in a major office before, he's outpacing other hopefuls with Tea Party credentials like Ted Cruz and Rick Perry. Carson's +38 net favorability rating at 49/11 matches Romney for the best among any of the GOP hopefuls. Carson has consistently been hitting double digits in our state polling as well.
-The biggest loser in this poll is Rand Paul. In addition to being in 8th place for people's first choice, he's also tied for 8th place as people's second choice. Only 10% of respondents list him as either their first or second choice, the lowest of any of the candidates we tested. Paul's net favorability with GOP primary voters has dropped by 10 points in the last year from +37 at 58/21 to now +27 at 50/23.
-Republican primary voters simply don't like Chris Christie. His net favorability rating with them is -8 at 35/43. Among voters describing themselves as 'very conservative,' it's 24/51- they just don't trust him at all. Last January Christie was polling at 14% for the nomination and now he has just half that level of support.
-The other loser is Rick Perry. Republicans actually like him fine- his +29 favorability rating at 50/21 is equal to Walker's and better than Bush's. But he's still in last place at just 2% suggesting that even among voters who like him, few of them want him to be the nominee in 2016. His last best chance may have passed.
-Last January Mike Huckabee was leading our national Republican polling at 16%. Now he's fallen back to the middle of the pack at 9%. Huckabee's 58% favorability rating trails only Romney among Republican voters, but that too is down from 64% a year ago. Huckabee's still in the mix but his stock isn't what it was a year ago.

Just love Jet Li movies. Had this movie on VHS but somehow, the movie wouldn't play any longer & I was lucky to be able to purchase it through Amazon. Read morePublished on May 28 2013 by Rachelle Doucet
Not for kids, but a really great movie, good story, good action. Jet Li is a decent actor! 8 out of 10Published on Dec 4 2012 by Corey
This move was packed with action, includiing must see fight scenes. I watched it two or three times. Read morePublished on Feb. 2 2008 by Philneia Timmons
This movie is probably Li's best. The movie zips along after the scene where a Chinese drug dealer gets zapped by a whore, who gouges him with long knitting needles. Read morePublished on June 22 2004 by N. Singer
Bad movie, bad story. If it were not for the few good action scenes, I would have given this a 1 star rating.Published on June 5 2004 by Taddese Zicke
3 stars for the movie and one for the plentiful extras. Jet Li's extraordinary martial arts fight scenes combined with a standard Luc Besson plot. Read morePublished on May 7 2004 by J
I don`t know if this movie is just bad or plain terrible, but it surely is far from good. The plot is predictable and lacks originality, the acting is unconvincing, the characters... Read morePublished on May 4 2004 by gonn1000

My first thought when I hear the word "dumplings" is dim sum. Delicious little and filled pockets of dough that are either steamed or pan fried. I guess it depends on where you come from and what your cultural heritage is as to what dumplings mean to you. Not that I'm Asian, but that's where my mind went. Perhaps because, interestingly, while most cultures have dumplings, they're called by different names like pierogi or tortellini, etc.
The Creative Cooking Crew is kicking the new year off with a dumpling challenge. Continue Reading
I've been to Chile twice. I loved the country and I loved the food! So, I was delighted to be invited by Kitchen Play to participate in a blogging event with Foods from Chile. The #CookChilean challenge went like this … they sent me a mystery box of food … I offered readers the opportunity to suggest what I should make with the ingredients … and now I'm happy to reveal that the winner is Erica of My Colombian Recipes who suggested 'seafood tapas'.
Those 2 words gave me the idea (and excuse) to make a tapas party so I invited a couple of wine-toting friends over for a fiesta. "Tapas" are universal these days and the food ingredients I received lent themselves perfectly to the "little dish" theme.
I made two versions of this recipe in one week. Once for a small dinner party on Wednesday and 2 different versions for our Father's Day bbq. Continue Reading

Cortical deafness
|Cortical deafness
Location of the primary auditory cortex in the brain
|Classification and external resources
Cortical deafness is a form of sensorineural hearing loss caused by damage to the primary auditory cortex. Cortical deafness is an auditory disorder where the patient is unable to hear sounds but has no apparent damage to the anatomy of the human ear (see auditory system), which can be thought of as the combination of auditory verbal agnosia and auditory agnosia.
Cortical deafness is caused by bilateral cortical lesions in the primary auditory cortex located in the temporal lobes of the brain.[1] In most instances, the cause is bilateral embolic stroke to the area of Heschl's gyri. Cortical deafness is extremely rare, with only twelve reported cases.
Patients with cortical deafness cannot hear any sounds, that is, they are not aware of sounds including non-speech, voices, and speech sounds.[2]
It is thought that cortical deafness could be a part of a spectrum of an overall cortical hearing disorder.[1] In some cases, patients with cortical deafness have had recovery of some hearing functions, resulting in partial auditory deficits such as auditory verbal agnosia.[1][3] Auditory verbal agnosia is the inability to recognize speech while hearing remains intact.[2] This syndrome might be difficult to distinguish from a bilateral temporal lesion such as described above.
