There's a great feature in today's NY Daily News on our friend Phil Padwe and his latest children's book, which teaches tattoo acceptance, "Daddy Has a Tattoo."
After the success of his "Mommy Has a Tattoo," many tattooed fathers said, "Hey, what about me?" and so Phil obliged with this new release. As Phil tells the Daily News, the book isn't heavy handed or trying to push a moral lesson, and he's "certainly not preaching that a child should get tattooed!" Instead, it's a lighthearted story with bold and fun illustrations. Here's how it's described:
James is a toddler who loves his daddy's tattoo, and Polly is a little girl who loves parrots! Together they use their imaginations to try to solve a mystery! The story encourages imagination and teaches that you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover... not when it comes to tattoos!You can buy "Daddy Has a Tattoo" on Amazon, but before you do, Phil is giving away two copies to two lucky N+S readers, just as he did with his "Tattoo Coloring Book" this summer.
We'll play it like we usually do: Two winners will be selected randomly from those who comment -- any love note will do -- on this post in our Needles & Sins Syndicate Group on Facebook or hitting up @NeedlesandSins on Twitter. On December 5th, we'll put all the names of the commenters into Randomized.com will pick the winners.
Good luck!

You can always tell what asset is valued most in a society at any given time by what is stolen.
How many of you out there remember watching old movies about the Wild West and seeing the cattle rustling scenes? Waiting for darkness, the gang of outlaws would quietly approach a herd of cattle and stealthily divide some animals from the herd, then stampede them away whooping and yelling and very pleased with themselves. Later in time, in the 20th century art, gold and cash would be the objects of glorified heists. In recent years the value of commodities has soared and we find ourselves full-circle reading not only about cattle rustling once again but nut, corn and even maple syrup rustling. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) cargo thefts cost the U.S. $30 billion per year, and according to a cargo theft monitoring network associated with the National Insurance Crime Bureau the most frequently stolen item is food.
This past year in our neighborhood of New England in the U.S., 50 cows were stolen out of a dairy barn in Dartmouth Massachusetts in the middle of the night. Stealing 50 dairy cows in New England is not easy or quick for that matter. There is not much open space and cows cannot be stampeded off like in days of old. Doing so would cause a lot of angry neighbors and traffic tie ups. It must have involved multiple trucks and trailers and much planning. The cows were recovered two days later over 260 miles away at a large livestock auction facility in Pennsylvania after the owners had a hunch that that was where they would be taken.
In Northern California two truckloads of walnuts worth $300,000 went missing after not arriving at their destinations in Florida and Texas. Pulled right from a Natasha and Boris cartoon, deputies are looking for a heavy set man with a thick Russian accent and believe that the walnuts ended up on the black market in Mexico. Did anyone else not know there was a walnut black market in Mexico? Or that Russians were supplying it? Me either. Even more in demand than walnuts are almonds. According to the Agricultural Crime Technology Information and Operations Network (ACTION) 660,000 pounds of almonds, or $1.5 million worth of almonds were stolen in California in 2012. In one case on April 19th and May 4th two shipments of almonds equaling 88,000 pounds were stolen from Sunny Gem in Wasco, California. The men who came to the facility to pick up and transport the almonds to their destinations had forged paperwork and identifications. Almond rustling in California has gotten so bad that growers and processors are using GPS technology to track their nuts.
Canada is not immune. Cases of thoroughly planned out and sophisticated food theft have been occurring there as well. In the first week of December 465 tons of corn worth $137,000 was stolen out of three silos on a farm in Saint-Léonard-d'Aston. The farm was equipped with an electric security alarm and surveillance cameras which were both deactivated before no less than 12 large container trucks were loaded with corn and driven away.
One of the highest valued thefts occurred this year in Canada as well. Six hundred barrels of maple syrup worth $30 million were stolen from a facility in Saint-Louis-de-Blandford in August. The syrup was transferred from the barrels in which it was being stored into other containers before being stolen in order to cover up the theft for as long as possible. The syrup was not discovered missing until a routine inventory check was done and the barrels were discovered to be empty. In most cases of commodity theft it is very difficult to recover the stolen assets. In this case the maple syrup was tracked to Kenjwick, New Brunswick, Canada to an export company and recovered. The exporter stated that he bought the syrup from the company's usual sources at the usual market price and had no idea it was stolen.
As supplies tighten, demand rises and values increase criminals are realizing that stealing food is much easier, and just as profitable as stealing money - what with its pesky serial numbers, dye packs and bank security. We are entering a time of strange combination of the past and future – we are back in the wild west of cattle rustlers but also a time where nuts are tracked by GPS. You can tell what is held in highest value by what is being stolen. Today, more and more the answer to what is held in highest value is becoming "food".

With several current and former NFL players in attendance, San Jose State held their on-campus Pro Day last week. Del Oro graduate Ryan Otten was the main attraction as he was able to work out for the 23 NFL teams in attendance.
Otten was one of the top tight ends in the nation this past season, but was unable to participate at the recent NFL combine due to an illness.
On Pro Day, Otten ran his 40-yard dashes in the mid-4.6 range with a 33-inch vertical and 4.45 short shuttle time. He is expected to be a mid-round draft pick in April.
Otten battled a painful illness over the last six weeks after a staph infection developed from a cut he suffered at the Senior Bowl. His weight plummeted to the 220-pound range, but Otten worked his way back and looked at near 100 percent health at Pro Day. He was able to do 17 reps on the bench press and weighed in at 242 pounds.
The Spartans all-time leader in catches among tight ends also looked good receiving as Otten caught passes from former San Jose State and NFL quarterback Jeff Garcia. Green Bay Packers wide receiver and Spartans alum James Jones was also in attendance, along with San Francisco 49ers left tackle Joe Staley.
Otten will likely compete with offensive lineman David Quessenberry for the distinction to be the first San Jose State player drafted in the 2013 NFL Draft.

Our Opinion: Domestic violence affects people and communities
Saturday, October 12, 2013
Domestic violence threatens individuals and ravages a community.
A yarn bombing last week in the downtown area of Jefferson City was designed to call attention to the scourge of domestic violence.
The creative and whimsical yarn wrappings to raise awareness about a serious problem were conducted by volunteers from the Rape and Abuse Crisis Service (RACS), which provides shelter and resources to victims of domestic violence.
In a series of editorials, we intend to share information provided by RACS professionals that addresses the magnitude of the problem, what people can do individually and collectively to break the cycle and the need to share awareness and understanding of this complex issue.
First, the problem is pervasive — probably more pervasive than many people believe.
Last year, more than 1,873 incidents of domestic violence were reported in the RACS' nine-county service area. We are alarmed by that number, particular since it represents only a fraction of the problem. Statistically, domestic violence reports represent between one in five to one in seven incidents.
In terms of reported incidents in 2012, Cole County's 540 reports ranked 14th highest among the state's 114 counties, according to the Missouri Crime Reporting Supplemental Domestic Violence Incident Report.
Also last year, RACS sheltered 226 victims of domestic violence, counseled more than 600 people and fielded 1,100 hotline calls.
In terms of gender, 85 percent of domestic violence victims are women.
In addition, between 30 and 60 percent of offenders also abuse children in the household.
The cycle of abuse snares not only young victims of violence, but children who witness abuse. Professionals cite witnessing violent behavior by parents or caretakers as the strongest risk factor for continuing the cycle through generations.
Next: What can be done, individually and collectively, to break the cycle of domestic violence.

Many students at Creekside Elementary school in New Bern have relatives in the armed forces. And Friday they got a gift from those relatives overseas.
An American flag flown in an Operation Iraqi Freedom mission was given to the school and its students. The flag was flown on August 31st by Marines stationed at Cherry Point.
Military personnel spent the afternoon sharing with students the meaning of the red, white and blue. Lieutenant Colonel Dave Krebbs says the flag is a symbol of hope for those military children.
Approximately a third of the squadron at Cherry Point is currently fighting in Iraq.

Bacon is the back and sides of a hog that is salted and dried or smoked; usually sliced thin and fried.
Petunia Dursley used to cook bacon and Harry Potter was often made to fry it. Bacon sandwiches were a comfort food of Ron Weasley's when he was particularly hungry.[1] Bacon is also a flavour of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans.

All the King's Men
It seems like every fall there's another movie that exudes grandeur. The kind of movie that's just screaming Oscar. It's got an incredibly talented cast and spews rage and fury while making critics stand up and applaud when the credits roll. Everyone around the office talks about it and how it was sooooo good.
But who really gives a shit? Really? It just made me think of a party that everyone is talking about going to for about a week before it goes down. You going to so and so's party? You going to so and so's party? What's His Face is going, What's Her Face is going. I heard Whosits is going. And you don't really want to go. You just know you're not going to be in the mood. You don't feel like it, man. You can think of something better to do, after all. And then you decide not to go and that's it. You feel better and you go on about your day.
Then the day of the party comes. You didn't work and you sat around your place all day. You're bored to tears. You might get a few phone calls asking if you're going and you're not so sure you don't want to go. But you don't let on that you're probably going to show up because you've made it abundantly clear that you're probably not going to be there. You're told several times it's going to be a good time, dude. Gonna be a blast, man.
After a few episodes of "Sanford and Son" you realize that you're going to kill someone if you sit in front of the TV any longer and what the hell else are you going to do? You decide to go. But you don't go too early because you just don't do that. Everyone's getting together around 9 so you show at 10:30. And what's happening when you get there? Sean Penn's giving another trying too hard performance and everyone's drinking cheap beer and playing cards. No chicks are around except for Kate Winslet, who looks really bored in a grossly underused role. Oh, and because it's the one guy's house, Anthony Hopkins the divorced dad is hanging out, telling bad jokes from the lumber yard and trying to get everyone to do a dozen shots with him. Of course when they kick in he gets ornery. "When's the poon showing up?" he asks. No, we haven't been here before.
From there it's all downhill, as if it ever led up to anything. That's what you get with All the King's Men. Same shit, different year. Sure, it probably would've been better if you decided to hunker down with The Old Man. But we all know where the night will end if you go down that path—closing some old man dive bar. All The Old Man wants is some tail and no one's going home until he gets it. And he's not getting it.

haha, thanks guys! ummm, i'm expecting to be getting a 55 gallon tank soon. i wanted to have oscars, (1 albino and 1 tiger) is it ok to have 2? and any tips about keeping them?
Moderator's edit: this post was copied from another thread to start a new thread in the more appropriate "Cichlid" section.
You can have two oscars, sure, but I wouldn't attempt to have even one in a 55g tank. I would suggest 75g minimum for a single oscar, 90g+ for two.
Yeah you definitely can't have 2 in a 55 gallon.
I am presently keeping a single oscar and nothing else in a 55 but I have major filtration going and really keep up on my water changes (I also have no gravel nor sand so it's easier to eliminate wastes plus adds some more total water to the system). My oscar is at this writing 6 months old, I raised him/her in the 55 from a couple inches long. In general a 55 is the bare minimum for a lone oscar (no pleco no nuthin' else) unless the oscar grows to be a real tank buster. Should mine turn out to be so long s/he can't turn around in the tank without a nose up or down I'll have to get at least a 75.
IMO 1 oscar is too big for a 55 gallon. For a fish that can potentially reach 14" they wouldn't even be able to turn around. I think it would be a good growout tank but no for the long run. SOme people say even a 10" jack dempsey would be too much for a 55. A 75 is much better for a single oscar and maybe some very small tankmates. For two I would aim for a 6ft tank or atleast 120 gallons. These guys have a heavy bioload and need water to swim.
I actually wouldn't put anything in a 75 with a single oscar. Especially not a pleco as I've seen many do, a pleco and an oscar are two fish with horrendous bioloads.
I would agree if one is starting out with plans to get an oscar just save money until at least a 75 gallon with stand and adequate filtration for same is affordable. Don't get a smaller tank for a baby oscar thinking "I'll get a bigger tank when he grows up" because a 75 gallon set up isn't much more expensive than a 55 gallon one. I've been looking for a 75 gallon or larger used set up (I haven't had a 75 gallon for some time now). I already have appropriate filtration for a 75 gallon though I might need to dig into a few more of my old filters to get a 95 going. We'll see what comes about.
I've had 4 oscars; Buzz, Stella, Sully and now Betelgeuse. Sully only lived a few years, succumbing to HITH which I believe was the result of stresses caused by my local water utility switching to the use of cloramines without my knowledge causing ammonia and nitrite spikes in my water before I realized what was going on and changed to Prime and zeolite treatment in a replacement water holding tank. Sully may still be alive I don't know, had to trade her in when we moved a few years back to cut down on my tank numbers.
thanks for all the advice guys! i purchased a 55 gallon with dual aqua tech 30-60 power filters, an air pump/air stone, a 300 watt heater, gravel, TONS of decorations, and all the other essentials for $100.00!!!! when he out grows the tank i'll sell it and get a 75 or 95 gallon tank. but thanks alot!
-NoaDon12 :D
Yeah there's always selling the 55 to step up. Should I end up getting a 75 or 95 I'll sell my 55 and stand, my stand is one of those old classic metal 'L' brace frames you can't find anymore.
Actually a standard 75 is no longer than a standard 55, just wider, so it only affords more turning room for a larger oscar. My not using substrate (the bottom glass of my tank I painted a sand copper color) gives the tank system a good deal more water (by whatever volume the substrate would have displaced) and makes it a lot easier to keep the solid wastes an oscar invariably produces under control.
NoaDon I really would strongly suggest though you get quite a bit more filtration, looks like you got the same 55 gallon kit I got a few months back including that Aquatech 30-60. I started a thread discussing the bio-pads used in that filter
I promise you they won't be enough biological filtration (or for that matter mechanical filtration) for an oscar. It will be impossible for you to keep up on your water parameters and your oscar will develop HITH (hole in the head) disease.
I don't want to discourage you or bum you out, oscars are wonderful fish to keep and well worth the extra work required to keep them healthy. Good luck.

Previously on America's Next Top Model, Ann began her inevitable crash and burn as the the wannabes took on a commercial for some water no one's ever heard of. They roller skated in cute little summer outfits and tried to deliver some lines. Several of the girls experienced a serious case of Tragicitis. Ann was heinous and ended up in the bottom two for the first time. Esther was awkward and flat. Liz didn't seem to five a shit. Kayla was too afraid of her male model to do anything. The only two who really delivered were Jane and Chris. Esther and her giant boobs got the boot. Can Ann bounce back after two disappointing weeks? Will Kayla overcome her fear of men? Will Tyrant try some ridiculous Italian accent? Who will get eliminated tonight?
Before we get to ANTM, let me talk to you about VFW. That's Vancouver Fashion Week. I just got home from a couple runway shows… Jacqueline Conoir and some men's wear line that is not worth mentioning. It had the feel of trying to be something it's not, but it was cute. A couple of the girls were fierce and a few of them even slipped. Loved it.
We're heading into the final stretch for this cycle of ANTM, which means the TOP 6 girls are heading overseas. It should come as no surprise that the remaining models are flown to Italy, since this is the "high fashion" season. Judging by the pictures, their first stop is Venice. Overall, I'm happy with the girls left in the running. The only one I'd swap out is Liz and I'd replace her with Kendal. Damn, that girl was stunning.
Joining the panel this week is designer Margherita Missoni. The guest judges this season keep getting better and better. Hopefully Tyra and Andre Leon Talley can keep this momentum going for Cycle 16. If you want a sneak peek at next week's episode of ANTM Cycle 15, check out the pictures below.
As previously speculated, "America's Next Top Model" is trying to go all legit for Cycle 15. Tyra Banks is attempting to make ANTM go high fashion this go around. Sure, she's made that claim before, but this time she has Andre Leon Talley in her corner. Sources say, he was instrumental in getting Italian Vogue and a group of well-respected fashion designers on board.
Instead of randoms on the judging panel, they've bagged some fashion heavyweights to take turns dwindling down the 14 model wannabes. Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port, I love you both, but you have no business on that panel. Signing on to judge and critique the ladies are Roberto Cavalli, Zac Posen, Diane Von Furstenberg, Margherita Missoni and Italian Vogue editor-in-chief, Franca Sozzani. Ann Shoket, you and your nose will be missed.. NOT.
I'm pleasantly surprised the CW released video interviews of the models instead of their heinous cast shots first. I think you're able to better grasp their personalities and model potential this way. Remember last cycle, that awful 80s aerobic styling. Great for a theme party but not flattering at all.
Height: 6'2″
Age: 19
Hometown: Dallas, Texas
She may look like Gollum's long-lost sister, but that's actually a good thing for this cycle. Ann's tried to book an agency numerous times, but has been turned down for being too tall. Standing at a behemoth 6'2″, Ann also has the smallest waist in the world, according to the ANTM promos. Someone give this Gothic Lolita an In-N-Out burger immediately.

Jail staff use fundraiser to practice procedures
Visitors become 'test subjects'
Sunday, July 17, 2011
Cole County Sheriff Greg White's "Bed, Breakfast and Bar" event — where around 90 people each night volunteered to stay in the new jail overnight, getting tours and sharing dinner and breakfast — also was a "practice run" for White and his staff.
"I think it went very well," White said Saturday morning. "They were doing security electronics checks all night, and we found a few things that needed to be tweaked."
The two nights of visitors also helped his staff learn ....

It's a good thing fires never kill people.
Oh, wait — they do?
Even, sometimes, blazes that weren't set by cretins bent on murder?
I'm feigning ignorance about the lethality of fires to illustrate what seems to me the absurdity of an argument proffered in print by a couple of professors from Linfield College. They imply, among other things in an op-ed published Saturday in The Oregonian, that people who burn ski resorts and torch SUVs have much more in common with Martin Luther King Jr. than with Timothy McVeigh.
The op-ed was written by David Sumner, an associate professor of English at the McMinnville college, and Lisa Weidman, an assistant professor of mass communication.
Their subject is Rebecca Rubin, a member of a group that caused $40 million in property damage in several incidents from 1996 to 2001, including the 1998 attempt to destroy a Colorado ski area.
Rubin, who fled to her native Canada after the crimes but later returned to the U.S., recently pleaded guilty to several charges. She has not been sentenced.
The professors acknowledge that Rubin is a criminal who deserves to be punished.
(Which is no great concession, considering she admitted as much herself, in court.)
But these educators devote most of their words to arguing that Rubin, and some of her fellow fire bugs, are getting a raw deal in two ways:
• They are routinely branded by prosecutors and the media as "eco-terrorists."
• Some of these criminals have been given longer prison terms under the "terrorism enhancement" provision in the federal Patriot Act.
The professors contend that Rubin is a saboteur, but not a terrorist, because her crimes didn't harm anybody and because they were committed "in defense of the natural world," but not intended to hurt people.
I don't doubt the latter is true.
But it doesn't matter.
Rubin and her confederates knew, as any lucid adult knows, that when fires get started people will show up to try to put them out.
Sometimes those people get hurt.
Or killed.
Indeed, a couple of firefighters were injured while extinguishing a fire that Rubin's group started.
The flames don't care that your goal was to protect lynx from a ski lodge or to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from gas-guzzlers.
Flames are as apolitical as a hurricane or a tornado.
They just burn, whatever and whoever happens to be within combustible range.
The notion, as the professors put it, that people such as Rubin are less culpable than actual terrorists because they're "philosophically opposed to hurting or injuring other living things" is the sort of flimsy, "but I didn't mean to" excuse most commonly employed by boys who bust one of their mom's antique crystal goblets during an impromptu game of catch in the backyard.
Once you've lit the match you've potentially endangered others' lives, and your philosophy, your intent, become worthless drivel.
It's not as if Rubin and her pals waited around to make sure nobody got close enough to scorch an eyebrow. They scurried away, as criminals are wont to do.
The one minor aspect about which I might agree, in one sense, with the professors is on the question of whether or not Rubin ought to be punished more severely because the word "terrorism" is attached to her crimes.
The difference is that they believe some arsonists deserve lesser punishment.
But I think all arsonists should be treated just as harshly as Rubin and her friends have been, whether the goal is to destroy a fleet of Hummers or to collect a big insurance check.
The truly appalling part of the professors' argument, though, is their attempt to cast Rubin as a First Amendment warrior whose actions, though technically criminal, were prompted by noble causes.
The gist of their case is that America, by treating "eco-terrorists" as a special sort of criminal, infringes on our freedoms.
"Rubin should be punished for her property crimes, but to call what she did terrorism is to misuse the word," the professors wrote. "And to misuse the word is to threaten our First Amendment rights."
Notwithstanding that the professors are on shaky semantic ground with regard to the word terrorism, they leap from that questionable claim to one that seems to me preposterous.
"The cost," they wrote, "is to our freedom to protest the actions of other people that we feel are wrong. Where does that leave Henry David Thoreau, Martin Luther King and the long American tradition of civil disobedience?"
The professors also refer to "Libertarian activist Ron Arnold," who came up with the word "eco-terrorist" in 1983.
"If Arnold had his way," they wrote, "sitting in at a lunch counter or blocking a factory gate would not be merely illegal, but would be terrorism."
The obvious response here is "so what?"
Arnold has not had his way, nor is he ever likely to. He's irrelevant.
If Rubin and her friends had merely blocked a factory gate — or in their case, say, chained themselves to heavy equipment at the ski resort site — they probably wouldn't be in prison, and they certainly wouldn't have been prosecuted as terrorists.
But they didn't block things they don't like.
They burned them.
The difference between these two tactics seems not to be a significant one for the two professors.
But then I didn't detect much in the way of clarity or consistency elsewhere in their op-ed, either.
The professors start by arguing that Rubin is guilty of sabotage but not of terrorism.
Yet in later paragraphs the professors replace, as if by magic, "sabotage" with "protest," as though these are synonymous in the context of Rubin's crimes.
Then the authors stray even further down this path by implying that "vandalism" and "arson" are forms of protest — but again, neither act constitutes terrorism so long as the arsonists and vandals are "careful not to injury or kill anyone."
In the case of fires this can be more a matter of good luck than of careful planning.
Which brings me back to Thoreau and King, who seem to have been brought in, against their will, from some wholly different discussion.
King's career has been researched in exhaustive detail yet I don't recall that he ever employed fires — even carefully ignited ones — to forward his righteous cause.
He marched from Selma to Montgomery, but he didn't torch either place, nor any town between.
(Although a certain hood-wearing group that didn't think much of Mr. King certainly didn't hesitate to break out the lighter fluid to try to make its point.)
King did, however, possess the courage to stage his protests in the illuminated public square, to defy the unjust and to accept, with dignity, the punishment that came with his defiance.
He didn't slink around under cover of night, lugging cans full of nasty, polluting petroleum products.
As for Thoreau, I'm sure he sparked quite a few blazes in his time.
But he can hardly be blamed for that. I imagine it got pretty cold, living in a cabin in Massachusetts before central heating.

@Ron......I had the same thoughts. I posted earlier along the lines that the days of 'Yamaha track's' may well be over. ( at least for the time being )
They have a new frame but doesn't seem to offer an improvement, since one rider is going to use it and the other isn't.
The Honda riders have a win each so confidence is high for them.
Jorge? we'll see whether Marc's move on him last race will inspire him to get revenge........ or not.
I wouldn't mind seeing Rossi as the 4th winner though.
PS. I don't mean revenge as in barging him, simply that Jorge may be fired up and out to beat him.

Using jquery: Implemenitng Infinite Scrolling with jquery on newest questions tagged jquery – Stack Overflow
I am working on a project that uses the jQuery Masonry and Infinite Scroll plugins to load "n" amount of pictures from instagram using their API. Looking at this short example my understanding is that I need to have before hand the html pages to be rendered:

The problem is, I dont really know how many pictures will be retrieved. Here is for example how I retrieve 20 pics at a time.
var access_token = location.hash.split('=')[1];
if (location.hash) {
type: "GET",
dataType: "jsonp",
cache: false,
url: "https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/MY_USER_ID/media/recent/?access_token=MY_ACCESS_TOKEN",
success: function(data) {
for (var i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
$("#instafeed").append("

");
} else {
I guess I will need a pagination mechanism but based on the tutorial mentioned above I believe I will first need to pre-define the html pages to be loaded. So now here my questions
- Does that mean this plugin (Infinite Scroll) requires to have "n" amount of html files in a directory to achieve infinite scrolling?
- Is it possible to implement infinite scrolling with the same plugin if I dont know how many pages I will have. Even better without even having to create physical html files?
- How can this kind of pagination is implemented? (i.e loading chunks of 20 pics as long as the user keeps scrolling down) there is not that much documentation online, could you provide a short step through demo or description?
With kind regards

By: Hillary Crosley Posted: May 26 2013 12:30 PM 0 Kanye West performs in New York on May 15, 2013. (Dimitrios Kambouris/WireImage/Getty Images) On Friday, Kanye West's Houston screenings for the visual companion to the new single from his upcoming album, Yeezus, "New Slaves," were a bust, according to the Houston Chronicle. It's unclear why the screenings didn't proceed as planned. Houston police shut down the Yeezus revival at Rothko. Despite an upbeat, respectful crowd, they pulled several cars onto the grass, flashed lights and sirens and demanded everyone leave or be arrested for trespassing. Folks slowly dispersed when it was clear this wasn't part of the show. Houston singer Dominique attended the library screening and said it was shut down due to "technical difficulties." It was rescheduled for later that night/morning, but police eventually shuttered that screening, too, after a tense back and forth. The Bush Memorial screening was also a "no show" according to fan Janet Quiroa. Read more at the Houston Chronicle. Like The Root on Facebook. Follow us on Twitter.

Howard Schnellenberger's bittersweet season drags on
Obviously this is a rough season for Howard Schnellenberger.
It is his final season of a 52-year career littered with honors, national titles and a Super Bowl, his team is 0-7 and in a tailspin that seems to be irreversible.
He has been using a lot of metaphors to describe what has been going on, and it involves highs and lows, bitterness and sweetness – the stadium finally opens and his team is not just losing, but is not competitive.
Here is what he had to say on Monday during the Sun Belt coaches' conference call: "To have such a wonderful thing happen to you, the stadium we struggled to build, and to finally get that thing put into place…For all the things that are so magnificent about this stadium, then for us to go out and get beat by a member of our conference, and the losses to continue, is a terrible amount of vinegar right beside a large amount of honey. It is hard to digest."
Even the DT appears to have hard time digesting what they have seen on the field…
The Voice was referring to the Oct. 15 loss to Western Kentucky that opened the new stadium. That loss was on his mind Tuesday, when he said this: "Do you think those kids aren't heartbroken that they couldn't come in here and win the opening game? It tore their heart out. It was the greatest moment of my coaching career, and then suddenly it was the worst."
The Voice's has his own version of my "This Is The Year Of The Stadium" theme.
And it is this: "It takes people of vision to understand that no matter how bad it gets now it cannot offset the greatness that has happened before this."
So, big picture. This season is a washout on the field, but the field now sits on campus and is surrounded by 30,000 seats.
And FAU will have its first true homecoming on campus Saturday.
The weekly Wednesday live chat returns for Game Week 8. Tune in at 11 a.m.

Not voting this year (Updated)
(SATURDAY MORNING UPDATE: The Devils PHWA chapter has announced it has voted 5-0 to also boycott the NHL awards voting. In light of that, the PHWA has announced it will have no further comment until the NHL comments/reacts, which may happen as soon as Monday. Below is the original post.)
Received my annual post-season awards ballot from the NHL yesterday and, once again, I have been asked to cast my votes for the Hart (MVP), Norris (top defenseman), Calder (top rookie), Lady Byng (most gentlemanly) and Selke (top defensive forward) Trophies. Also, I've been asked to vote on the NHL All-Star team and the NHL All-Rookie Team.
It's with great sadness that I will not be filling out the ballot this season.
I've always taken great pride and care in my voting and have always considered it a privilege to be included in the process.
But that is not why I am sad. I'm sad that it came to this in the first place, that the NHL and the Professional Hockey Writers' Association, of which I am a dues-paying member, forced this action.
It stems from the Islanders' brainless decision earlier this season to revoke the credential of Chris Botta, then working for AOL Fanhouse, because the organization did not like what Botta was writing. There is some history as Botta is a former team executive and head of its public relations department. But he wasn't this season. He was a credentialed media member, just like any of us dues-paying members of the PHWA.
Despite requests, the Islanders would not reverse their decision. The Rangers' chapter of the PHWA, of which Botta is a member, made a preliminary in-season decision to withhold its awards votes if the Islanders did not reverse course. It was discussed, to some extent, at a national level, but the PHWA decided not to support the protest. Earlier this week, the Rangers' chapter took a final vote to boycott the awards voting. The vote was 7-3. I was among the seven. Earlier today, the Islanders' chapter, by a 5-0 vote, decided to join the boycott.
As our chapter chairman, Larry Brooks of the New York Post, has said on several occasions this season, what is the point of paying dues if the national organization is not willing to protect its own.
The NHL, too, has turned a blind eye, essentially indicating they had no jurisdiction over the Islanders' decision. I don't expect the NHL to be the media's protector. But the Botta decision sets such a bad precedent the NHL should have exerted whatever pressure it could.
Before the Islanders' vote was announced this afternoon, Kevin Allen of USA Today, the PHWA president, issued this statement:
"The idea of a national boycott was discussed briefly, but my sense was that the majority of our members opposed the disruption of the voting process. But no motion was ever made to boycott. In talking to members, it's clear to me that they consider the voting process to be highly important.
"Although the Rangers' chapter doesn't reflect the sentiment of the other 30 chapters, I'm respectful of its decision. In America, the idea of using one's vote as a means of protest is as old as the country itself. And the issue here is important. The PHWA doesn't believe that a NHL team should be able to deny access to one of our members. Chris Botta is one of our members. And he was denied access by the New York Islanders.
"I'm satisfied that the New York Rangers chapter conducted its vote in a democratic, professional manner. I have been informed that it was a 7-3 decision. There will be no effort made to change anyone's mind. As president, I am willing to say who is eligible to vote, but I'm not going to suggest how someone should vote, or say whether he or she should vote at all.
"I'm confident that the integrity of the voting procedure will not be compromised by the loss of one chapter. Every year, we have some voters who don't exercise their right to vote for a variety of reasons. Even without the New York Rangers chapter, there will be 160 eligible voters. At some points during my 25 years in the organization fewer than 60 voters decided trophy winners. I believe we have more than enough voters to get the job done."
Job No. 1 of the PHWA should have been to have Botta's back, not to have been so concerned about possibly losing the right to vote in the future.
And so I am sad today. But I know I have done the right thing.

The interim order (the Bench calls it final order insofar as the move to deprive the OBCs the benefits this academic year) indicated two hurdles before the Act could be approved: the validity of data and the exclusion of creamy layer. In today's hearing, surprisingly, the Bench appeared to have agreed with the Solicitor General that Indra Sawhney Bench had approved the 27 per cent reservations for the OBCs, and therefore, the question on data for a similar quota for admissions in CEIs does not make sense. But the Bench immediately linked this issue with that of creamy layer exclusion, and asked the SG that the Government has not excluded it, even though Indra Sawhney made it mandatory. It appears to be reasonably clear that it is the creamy layer exclusion that is bothering the Bench, rather than the absence of a fresh survey to identify the OBCs for the purposes of the Act. It is in this context, the Bench observed that the Government wanted to play the game first, and frame the rules (regarding creamy layer) later. But the Bench did not admit that the creamy layer exclusion rules are already available, but the Government had taken a deliberate stand to include creamy layer, in view of the peculiar problems facing the OBC students seeking admission in CEIs. This has been explained at length twice – in the counter affidavits of the Government and in the application to vacate the stay. But the Bench has chosen to ignore the Government's arguments for the present, rather than give it due consideration.
Now, is there a way out? The Government, it appears, can certainly work on this option, and build all-party consensus, with the next Parliament session beginning on April 26. The power of the legislature to validate matters which have been found by judgments or orders of competent courts and Tribunals to be invalid or illegal is a well-known pattern. The legislature validates acts and things done by which the basis of Judgments or orders of competent courts and Tribunal is changed and the judgments and orders are made ineffective.
The effect of validation is to change the law so as to alter the basis of any judgment, which might have been given on the basis of old law and thus make the judgment ineffective. A formal declaration that the judgment rendered under the old Act is void, is not necessary. If the matter is pending in appeal, the appellate court has to give effect to the altered law and reverse the judgment. The rendering of a judgment ineffective by changing its basis by legislative enactment is not an encroachment on judicial power but a legislation within the competence of the Legislature rendering the basis of the judgment non est. The strategy is to cure the defects in the old law so as to make the new law consistent with Judicial expectations.

text: If the name Black Ph03nix isn't immediately ringing a bell, perhaps its because it is the alter ego of Larry Achiampong — and if you're not familiar by now, we'll help you out anyway. Achiampong is the London-based producer behind the excellent Meh Mogya and More Mogya series of LPs that drew upon the Ghanaian rhythms of Achiampong's parents music growing up, chopping up the vintage highlife records of his youth to dope effect. The music being released under Achiampong's Black Ph03nix moniker represents the next phase of the project, this time finding Larry cooking up tracks from the other various sounds that shaped his childhood, including the news, video games, and films that have seeped into his subconsciousness over time. Entitled Phoenix Rising: Unfinished Business, this continuation of Achiampong's exploration of his personal musical sound scape is commissioned by basic.fm, where you can find a deeper explanation of the whole project. "News of a World" is one of the Phoenix Rising tracks, and features audio samples from recently passed Margaret "Megatron" Thatcher and Neil "Optimus Prime" Kinnock (nicknames conferred by the Black Ph03nix himself) and is giving us a Madlib feel that's straight dopeness. Check out "News of a World" below and stay tuned for more on the Phoenix Rising project.
