Why is Desperate Housewives' Mrs. McCluskey such a favorite of Academy voters? Joosten believes it's because "I'm relatable to every family. Everyone has one McCluskey in their family, but not everyone has a gorgeous Housewife." Joosten, who after six years of playing a recurring guest star will finally work this year as a series regular, submitted the episode in which her character received both a marriage proposal — and a cancer diagnosis. A touchy subject for a comedy category, but Joosten says she was purposely trying to show "a juxtaposition between the comedy and the drama." Joosten is happy to report that she, like her character, has been cancer-free now for nine months. "What was very important for me was visualizing my body's little warriors fighting the cancer cells. I do that daily."

Quiz One
You've only dated the guy a few times, and you're wondering
Should I Be Getting Serious -or Getting Out?
Do you spend a disproportionate amount of time before every date trying to think up excuses for canceling? Yes___ No___
Have you ever thought that it would be ridiculous to wash your hair for a date, since, after all, you washed it a mere four days ago? Yes___ No___
Has he ever proudly announced, "Mother is my best friend-I tell her everything"? Yes___No___
When you're out with him, do you feel under no obligation to make your usual, halfhearted, "Oh, let me get this one" lunge for the check? Yes___ No___
Do you-the same woman who has spent many pleasant hours poring over bridal magazines and fantasizing about your own nuptial-find yourself thinking, "I can't believe he's getting so serious so quickly"? Yes___ No___
When he asks if he can come in after a date, do you leap out of the car, saying, "That would really be a problem for my cats-they have terrible allergies"? Yes___ No___
If a friend spots the two of you together, do you phone her the instant you get home to let her know you're not really dating, per se? Yes___ No___
Do you make it a regular practice to bring others-relatives, friends, passing vagrants-along to your romantic rendezvous, declaring, "The more the merrier"? Yes___ No___
Do you urge him not to call, saying, "I'm really not a phone person"? Yes___ No___
Have you, after fooling around with him, announced, "I'm a very private person, and I would feel violated if you told anyone you'd touched me-or even spoken to me"? Yes___ No___
If you answered yes to more than two of these questions, a ditch is in your immediate future.

In Loving Memory of Dawn Elizabeth Hedge Anderson
Opening song: Somewhere Over the Rainbow (Isreal Kamakawiwo'ole)
Welcome & Introduction
Welcome to this service of remembrance and love for Dawn Elizabeth Anderson.
Dawn's passing has no doubt left a void in all your lives but no greater is the loss than to those who were closest to her.
Our thoughts today are with Dawn's husband Sam, her children and their spouses: David and Sharon, Tony and Renee and Jannene and Mark, her grandchildren Shayne, Nicole, Amanda, Emily, Allie, Abby, Georja and Ashlee, great grandson Easton and her brother Alex.
We also remember today Dawn's parents Percy and Gladys, her sister Edna and her brothers Owen and Les who have all predeceased her.
This time you spend together today is to remember Dawn and to allow your sorrow and sadness to surface and be expressed in words, in tears, in reflection or in whatever way is meaningful to each of you.
Whether you are family or caring friends your coming together here is a comfort and support to each other and by sharing your grief and sorrow you will gain strength to help you find closure and eventually move on without the physical presence of your loved one.
When we lose someone dear to us the grief that we feel can be intence, but grief is a great indicator and measure of love and grief does not exist if there has not been love. Grief is an expression of your love.
Nothing can change your love for Dawn or her love for you, and whilst you think of her passing with sadness and regret, you should recall her life with respect and happiness and remember Dawn for the happy times you shared. Family and friends can never be altered by time, circumstances or even by death. The past with all its meaning remains sacred and secure.
Dawn was born on 21st May 1945, in Hamilton New Zealand to parents Percy and Gladys Hedge. She was one of 5 children with siblings Alex, Edna, Owen and Les.
She grew up and went to school in the Hamilton district and after leaving school became a seamstress.
She met a young man by the name of Sam who came from across the "ditch". Sam had been working in the oil fields of Western Australia and being a little "cashed up" decided to go to New Zealand where he met Dawn in Hamilton. Well romance developed, they were married in 1967 and the rest as they say is history. Dawn and Sam have three children; David, Tony and Jannene.
Now Sam always reckoned that Dawn spent all his money so maybe that is why when they decided to leave Hamlton they agreed they would go to wherever the first bus out of town was going. This they did and ended up in Hastings.
For most of their time in Hastings Dawn and Sam owned and ran a convenience store. But then in 1987 they decided to move to Australia where their eldest son David had already ventured. They lived at Alexandra Hills and then Redland Bay and for some 15 years had a "Take Away" shop in Capalaba, retiring in the early 2000's.
One of their most favorite pastimes was going to the Gold Coast which they did on most Sundays. It would be fishing, a picnic or the Casino where Dawn liked a flutter on the tables.
So today you recall the experiences, the relationships, you shared with Dawn. The special moments and memories will always be in your hearts. Your lives are more special because you knew her.
Dawn's son David will now share his thoughts.
I invite Dawn's daughter Jannene to speak in tribute to her mother.
Memories of Dawn
You will all have your own memories of the times you shared with Dawn. But let's for the next few minutes share some memories with a presentation of photographs accompanied by a song Dawn requested for her service, 'Amazing Grace' sung by of course a New Zealander, Hayley Westenra.
Dawn's granddaughter Allie will now lead us in prayer.
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
Your being here today is an expression of love and friendship for Dawn and her family, and on their behalf I thank you for being here with them to say goodbye to her in a loving and meaningful way.
You are invited to join the family for refreshments at Tony and Renee's house, (----) Redland Bay following the service.
I invite another of Dawn's granddaughters, Georja, to read for us a poem she has written especially for her grandmother.
Saying goodbye to someone we love is never easy. But the time has come for us to tenderly and reverently commit the mortal body of dear Dawn to the elements and ultimately to the earth from which all life comes and to which all in the end returns.
Cherish the memory of her words, and deeds of her character. Cherish her love and friendship. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and sister. We leave her in peace and bid her farewell but although she is no longer with you physically, her spirit will remain with you always. She lives on in you and is as much a part of your lives as ever before. Her smile her nature her deeds you will remember always in your hearts.
Like pilgrims we wander, until death takes our hand, And we start on the journey to God's Promised Land - A place where we'll find no suffering or tears, Where time is not counted in days, months, or years -- And in that fair city that God has prepared Are unending joys to be happily shared With all of our loved ones who patiently wait On death's other side to open the gate . (Helen Stiner Rice)
Those we love don't go away
They walk beside us every day
Unseen, unheard, but always near
Still loved, still missed and very dear
So as you leave here today with thoughts of Dawn formost in your minds, may you find strength and support in your love for one another and may you find peace in your hearts.
Farwell Song
Dawn several months before you passed away you asked me to help find where your parents were buried. It took me a long time, but with the help of so many I have fulfilled that request!

Great iPad mini w/ Retina Display Cover,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Anker® Ultra Slim Synthetic leather Case for Apple New iPad Mini / iPad Mini 2 - Multi Angle Stand - Smart Cover - Automatic Sleep / Wake function (Blue) (Personal Computers)
I received the cover a couple of months back, along with another one from a different brand but just as inexpensive. I wanted to wait a couple of months to be able to review the item properly, and so far it has surpassed my expectations, though with a couple of qualms.
It is really good quality (having handled quite well a couple of falls and my iPad has not a scratch on it), but very "plasticy" so for those of you who would prefer more of a leather feel, maybe you should look at more expensive cases. It is made of PU leather and that basically means plastic, the part of the case that holds the iPad is smooth to the touch and feels very nice; also it hasn't once let my iPad drop out which leads me to believe that its a snug enough fit.
My qualms with it are small, one is the fact that when you use the case as a stand in landscape mode, the iPad slips easily forward (the cover has no grooves like others do) unless its at a very steep angle with the table which puts it in danger of falling backwards. I don't use it much as a stand so it doesn't bother me that much. The second is that its a tad on the heavy side, but then again any case seems heavy compared to the iPad except for the tiny shells that don't do much in the way of protection. Also the cover leaves a layer of dust on the screen every time i close it.
It a good buy especially for the price (I paid 8Ł). I definitely recommend it.

Judit's Reviews > Bloodlines
Bloodlines (Bloodlines, #1)
by Lindsay Anne Kendal (Goodreads Author)
by Lindsay Anne Kendal (Goodreads Author)
Judit's review
Jan 30, 11
Read in January, 2011
I really loved this story from the start till the end; there were some slow chapters but others were so full of action that the balance was just right. The characters are great; they all have different yet in some ways similar personalities. You can never know what the next happening will be; in most of the books I can predict the outcome, villain etc. but in this story everything was a surprise or I thought something else was gonna happen. It's so good that when you reach the end of the book; you would like to scream out in frustration that you have to wait for the second book.

I would get out ,they are headed to bankruptcy. Thats why amr is pushing for a strike.
The trend value of AMR is 0.89 on 05-24-2010, showing downward trend in near future. Software & data available @ www.twitter.com/simonindex
Get the story correct noone even the F/A wants to see bankruptcy thats a giant no no. If you read the companies responce they want to sit down and negotiate and get it done. Sorry but theres no bankruptcy talk even rumors so try harder next time.
good on you for setting the story straight!!
No one "talks" about bankruptcy until the lawyers are sitting in the board room. AMR can't lose half a billion dollars a year forever. The music eventually stops.

Natchezian walks in honor of others
My name is Tiffany Plummer Williams. I used to live in Natchez, but I currently reside in Covington, Ga. I recently participated in the Susan G. Komen 60-mile, three-day Breast Cancer Walk Oct. 18-20 in Atlanta. Participation in the Komen 3-Day experience becomes one of the defining achievements in one's life.
The experience can also be a meaningful way to celebrate surviving, honor someone lost or build hope for a future world without breast cancer.
Susan G. Komen is the world's largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. Because of events like the Komen Race for the Cure and the Komen 3-Day, the organization has invested more than $2.2 billion to fulfill its promise, becoming the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world.
Each year, thousands of women and men come together in different cities across the United States, with one common goal — finding a cure for breast cancer. The three-day event route covers approximately 15-22 miles each day for three days in a row, totaling approximately 60 miles. All walkers must agree to raise a minimum of $2,300 to participate in the three-day walk.
I walked with more than 1,000 other participants in the Atlanta three-day event, and together we raised $2.9 million in search for the cure. Seventy-five percent of the net proceeds raised help support national research and large public health outreach programs. The remaining 25 percent supports local community and affiliate outreach programs. Virtually every major advance in the fight against breast cancer in the last 30 years has been impacted by a Susan G. Komen grant.
Participants of the Atlanta 3-Day started Friday morning at Stone Mountain, Ga., and ended the 60-mile journey at Turner Field, home of the Atlanta Braves, on Sunday.
I walked in honor of several local women that had an impact on my life, Mrs. Irma Woods and Ms. Valeria Johnson. I also walked in memory of Ms. Kendra Jones, a 1999 graduate of Natchez High School who recently lost her battle with cancer and had a great impact on a lot of people. I walked 20 miles a day for three days and, to top it off, exceeded my goal of $2,300, raising $2,685 to donate towards breast cancer research and community outreach programs.
Tiffany Plummer Williams is married to Vernon Williams, a native of Orlando, Fla., and they have two young sons, Noah and Nigel. She is the daughter of Robert and Pamela Plummer of Natchez.

Miyazato moved into position for her third victory of the season, shooting a 2-under 71 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead over Michelle Wie and Brittany Lincicome in the Tres Marias Championship.
"I like to play in the wind because I grew up in a windy place," said Miyazato, raised in the small village of Higashison on the Japanese island of Okinawa. "It's still ...

California has been home to human beings for at least 12,000 years, with the period of European-American settlement representing only a tiny fraction of this time.
This summer I was honored to speak before the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights regarding American Indian Treaty and consu
The squall of outrage that has erupted in the 72 hours since footage of Massachusetts GOP Senate campaign staffers pantomiming the "tomahawk chop" and issuing war whoops initially emerged confounds logic and strains credulity.
In another column, I was mean to Willard Mitt Romney of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Michigan, Utah, and California.
Let me be crystal clear: The anti-Indian, federal Indian law idea-system has no legitimacy when viewed from the perspective of our original existence as the free and independent nations and peoples of this part of the world.
Recently, the California Governor, Jerry Brown, authorized the Class III gaming compacts of two landless tribes, the North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians and Estom Yumeka Maidu (Enterprise Rancheria), who had petitioned the state to operate tribal gaming facilities outside of their traditional re
The senatorial race in Massachusetts is too close to call—between incumbent Senator Scott Brown, Republican, and Harvard Law Professor Elizabeth Warren, Democrat—and could decide which party controls the U.S. Senate.
Michael Kinsley, writing in The New York Times, famously defined a gaffe as "when a politician tells the truth—some obvious truth he isn't supposed to say." I leave it to others whether Kinsley nailed it, but I'm here to suggest that all gaffes are not equal, or even equally interesting
For a man who prides himself on being a great businessman, Mitt Romney now carries the ignoble distinction of CEO of the most disastrous, chaotic and self-imploding campaign in modern history.
It was with great interest that I read Harold Monteau's editorial, "Regarding Gaming Compacts and Their 'Illusory Exclusivity,'" in
Digesting the broadcast of this month's Democratic National Convention, one was reminded of an expertly polished minstrel show.
The tribal-state gaming compact between the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe of Massachusetts and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, recently submitted to the Department of Interior (DOI or Secretary) appears to have bumped Montana (tribes treated like tavern owners) out of 1st place for the distinction f
It has recently been announced that land theft charges against Kanaretiio, the Bear Clan representative from the Kanienkehaka Akwesasne Territory (aka Mohawk), have been dismissed due to technicalities, after a judicial review by New York State Supreme Court Justice Robert Main.
This fall, most of us will suffer from nothing worse than hay fever. However, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) has issued several warnings recently about rising numbers of more serious illnesses. The bad news is that these serious ailments can cause death.

Lady Antebellum Debut Dramatic 'Wanted You More' Music Video
Ever since Lady Antebellum released a behind-the-scenes clip of their 'Wanted You More' music video, we've been anxious to see the finished product. And here it is!
Ever since Lady Antebellum released a behind-the-scenes clip of their 'Wanted You More' music video, we've been anxious to see the finished product. And here it is!
One lucky fan has just over two weeks to clear a space on his wall for a picture of himself hanging out with Lady Antebellum. Phillip Lawrence of Kansas City, Mo. was chosen as the winner of last month's flyaway to see the band. He and a guest will fly to St. Louis for the once in a lifetime event later this month.
Lady Antebellum picked up the buckle for Group Video of the Year for 'We Owned the Night' at the 2012 CMT Music Awards. First, they open the show with a mashup and then they nab an award at the midpoint! It turned out to be a good night for Lady A.
For 15 years, Tricia Van Auken has been carrying the same sign to every concert she attends. It reads: "Can I Come Sing w/ You?" — and believe it or not, it has actually worked! Ten months ago, Jake Owen invited Van Auken on stage during a performance at the New York State Fair. Then on Sunday night (June 3), Van Auken's lucky sign worked again, when Lady Antebellum called her up to sing with them during a show in Canandaigua, N.Y.
Lady Antebellum was Lookin' For A Good Time on this date in 2008, Shania Twain said Come On Over in 1999, Alan Jackson said It's Five O'Clock Somewhere in 2003 and more.
When Charles Kelley, Dave Haywood and Hillary Scott — who make up the mega-talented country music trio Lady Antebellum — say that they love their fans, they really mean it.
The power behind the punch of Lady Antebellum's sophomore album has withered away to little more than a slap to the cheek with the group's fourth single 'Wanted You More.' The best songs from 'Own the Night' have already been issued as singles, and while hope remains for a late surge ('Cold as Stone' or 'Friday Night' perhaps), this new offering is more style than substance.
We want to fly you and a guest to see and meet Lady Antebellum in St. Louis, Missouri! Click for details + enter to win!
Even those who haven't been watching 'The Voice' this season will want to tune into the Season 2 finale. A star-studded line-up — including Lady Antebellum, Justin Bieber, Daryl Hall and John Oates, and Flo Rida — is on the slate for the May 8 final episode.
Lady Antebellum know a thing or two about experiencing the perfect day. That's not to say that everything always works out for them, but they've had some pretty stellar days in the past couple of years, what with Grammy Awards, sold out tours and even a couple weddings within the band. In honor of those larger-than-life days, the band just released a new music video to their song 'Perfect Day' from 2010′s 'Need You Now.'
Lady Antebellum picked up a triple-platinum single on this date in 2010, Shania Twain went all Diva on us in 1998 and Don Gibson was feeling Lonesome at the top of the country charts in 1958.
Three weeks ago, we reported that Lady Antebellum had opened up a competition, agreeing to come perform for 45 minutes at the prom of the high school who submitted the best video via their website. They invited YouTube submissions and promised to review them and choose their favorite, selecting that school as the lucky high school who got to have an 'Own the Night'-themed prom, complete with a Lady A concert.

You have my sympathy. Now that we have the large single stream garbage containers more and more people are too lazy to take them to their back yards. In fact in my neighborhood which has a lot of rentals they leave them on the sidewalk or the front lawn.

Safety Corner: How you can work together with your neighbors on safetyPublished 11:29pm Tuesday, March 1, 2011
Dowagiac Department of Public Safety professionals work diligently to create a safe community in which families can live, businesses can open their doors to guests and visitors can enjoy a pleasant experience.
However, it truly takes the entire community working together to make this a reality.
Director Thomas A. Atkinson offers the following helpful tips from the National Crime Prevention Council in an effort to keep our families and neighborhoods safe.
Although the suggestions are specifically geared toward parents, we are all the "parents and guardians" of our community and can find benefit by reviewing the tips.
• Know where your children are. Have your children tell you or ask permission before leaving the house and give them a time to check in or be home. When possible, have them leave a phone number of where they will be.
• Help children learn important phone numbers. Have your children practice reciting their home phone number and address and your work and cell phone numbers.
If they have trouble memorizing these, write them down on a card and have them carry it at all times. Tell your children where you will be and the best way to reach you.
• Set limits on where your children can go in your neighborhood. Do you want them crossing busy roads? Playing in alleys or abandoned buildings? Are there certain homes in your neighborhood that you don't want your children to go?
• Get to know your children's friends. Meet their parents before letting your children to go to their home and keep a list of their phone numbers. If you can't meet their parents, call and talk to them. Ask what your children might do at their house and if they will be supervised.
• Choose a safe house in your neighborhood. Pick a neighbor's house where your children can go if they need help. Point out other places they can go for help, like stores, libraries and police stations.
• Teach children to settle arguments with words, not fists. Role-play talking out problems, walking away from fist fights and what to do when confronted with bullies. Remind them that taunting and teasing can hurt friends and make enemies.
• Work together with your neighbors. Watch out for suspicious and unusual behavior in your neighborhood. Get to know your neighbors and their children so you can look out for one another.
Additional resources can be found on the National Crime Prevention Council Web site @ www.ncpc.org.

Fais Gaffe!
Everybody knows the expression to make a gaffe – to make a mistake. This word is also used in French with the same meaning.

Expression Primitive
My mother-in-law has been taking dance classes called "expression primitive" for years now, which is a sort of natural freedom animal-y movement, accompanied by a tambourine and the occasional grunt. Her passion for this class has always been met with fond indulgence and hidden smirks by her five sons. However, when she offered to take six of the grandchildren for… Read More

Sofia: Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (ISBN 954-84952-8-7/pbk). 246-265 (2004). Willmore surfaces, namely the extremals of the functional $W(S)=\int_S H^2 \,dA$, obey the Euler-Lagrange equation $$\Delta H+ 2(H^2- K)H= 0,\tag1$$ $H$, $K$ respectively denoting the mean and the Gaussian curvatures of $S$. The authors show that, in Mongé representation, equation (1), also called Willmore equation, can be regarded as a nonlinear fourth-order partial differential equation. This allows to prove that the symmetry group of the functional $W$ is the largest group of geometric transformations admitted by the Willmore equation. The authors explicitely determine the conserved currents of ten linearly independent generators of the considered group. Then a special class of Willmore surfaces is studied, namely the rotationally-invariant solutions of (1). The authors also point out some applications of the theory of Willmore surfaces in different areas, such as biophysics and 2D string theory.

Beckham's Bod and Clint's Politics
Slate staffers chat with readers about this year's Super Bowl commercials.
Seth Stevenson: My least favorite thing about the Skechers ad was the last-second, utterly pointless appearance of Mark Cuban. What value could he possibly bring? Is he an appealing figure you want to associate with your brand?
Nora Merhar: You know, I completely forgot about Mark Cuban in my general annoyance at the ad. Though I'm obviously not their target audience. My dog friends all preferred the Bud ad with Weego.
Roman Strakovsky: Did anyone else find the "Euroness" of the Fiat Abarth commercial refreshing in a sea of Bud Light/Doritos/Coke ads?
John Swansburg: I did some research: Bud Light Platinum has higher alcohol content (and slightly more calories) than pre-alchemy Bud Light.
Seth Stevenson: I saw that. 6%! That's microbrew territory!
John Swansburg: Seth, what did you think of Twinkies showing up in the Chevy apocalypse ad? a) Hostess is bankrupt and b) doesn't it sort of suggest that Twinkies are so far from being actual food that they just might make it through the end of days?
Seth Stevenson: I'm fascinated by multi-brand ads. Like GE prominently showing people drinking Buds. I think at this point everyone knows that the only items to survive the apocalypse will be Twinkies, cockroaches, the Chevy Silverado, and Joan Rivers.
Kevin Dohner: The commercials were lousy this year. A few that were kinda' funny, but it wasn't that much different than a playoff game commercial.
Tonie Lamar-Osborne: My main event was the great game with Eli winning.
Jeffrey Rickett: I liked the boy in the pool who had to go to the bathroom, all can definitely relate. But after some moments later we all forgot who the commercial was for until a bunch of us finally figured it out. But even now I forget the name of the Free Income Tax service.
Sophie Tesch: This one was my favorite.
John Swansburg: A subtle but really funny moment from last night: The Alec Baldwin joke slipped into the Best Buy ad starring all those wireless innovators.
Amanda Wada: I was wondering about the local commercials. The likes of Central New York's locals would normally be expected during day-time TV, not during the Super Bowl. I thought the average cost was something like $3.5 million—there's no way our local pizzeria coughed up that much dough for the commercials we watched last night. So how'd they do it? Is there some sort of local/bulk discount?
Seth Stevenson: The local pods are definitely not selling for $3.5 million a pop. But I have to imagine they cost more than they would during Wheel of Fortune. Wish I had some hard info for you, might be able to report it out for a future article.
John Swansburg: Big night for Friday Night Lights fans: Peter Berg directed the ad about NFL safety. Peter Berg is also inexplicably directing the inexplicable Battleship. Which stars Taylor Kitsch, who also stars in John Carter. CEFHCL!
Seth Stevenson: And the Wall Street Journal had Michael B. Jordan commenting on the game and the ads all night.
John Swansburg: When the aliens from Battleship complete their conquest of planet earth and begin to do some anthropology on the people they conquered, they will learn from Super Bowl ads that man's greatest ambition, other than a moon base, was a dog who could fetch a beer.
Seth Stevenson: If only Newt Gingrich had promised beer-fetching dogs, he might have won Florida.
John Swansburg: What did people think of the VW ad? Was the Star Wars kicker fun, or was it trying too hard to relive last year's glory?
John Swansburg: I also liked another ad out of Detroit, though one with a totally different tone: The Camaro ad. As you noted, Seth, the product was front and center, and I enjoyed the kid's extended celebration.
Seth Stevenson: I liked that the girl accepts his marriage proposal on the basis of him owning a Camaro. I almost think that could happen. If the Camaro had just been through a car wash and was looking super hottt.
John Swansburg: Totally: I mean, we saw that other lady accept a proposal in a Camry. Camry may be reliable, but those new Camaros are seriously badass.
Seth Stevenson: Any thoughts on the Ferris ad? I felt the truncated version that was aired was not that great, but the extended version that's viewable online was chock full of fun Buellerania for folks like me. (The kind of folks who watched the movie in excess of 100 times when they were 12.)
John Swansburg: I agreed with your assessment that it needed more Ruck. And more Mia Sara!
Seth Stevenson: The world needs more Mia Sara. Remind me to lend you my Time Cop DVD.
Seth Stevenson: Okay gang, I'm going to duck out—I've scheduled the next 30 mins for crying into my hoodie sleeve about the Patriots loss. Thanks to everyone for chatting!
John Swansburg: And I need to go bury the "confident me" who was hovering behind my head all afternoon yesterday going on about how the Pats had this one sewn up. Bye all!

A guide to brainstorming web projects
We often find that some project teams take brainstorming far too lightly, either not taking it seriously enough or by using in-effective methods, or in some cases skipping the process altogether. Effective brainstorming not only kicks a project into action, but it also helps to get everyone on the team involved and in the right frame of mind. Done correctly, it can set a project out on the right foot, bringing ideas to life, setting solid targets … Read More

what is the respected waiting time to start dating after your spouse dies

When my husband died I told the children I would never get married again. I felt this way until approximately 18 months and when I met the right one I started dating again and married him. I guess it is different for everyone, most people would say a year. Life does go on. You will never forget them, but you will learn to live again with God's help and grace. My children are grown now and they are one of the lucky ones, they have a great stepfather.

I think from all I have read that after the death of a spouse it is wise to wait for at least a year to make any decisions.
You are really vulnerable right after losing your mate and your decisions are naturally a little shaky to say the least. Anyone so insensitive to ask you out or want to go out with you while the coffin is till warm is probably not the best choice for a date.

I think that a person should deal with the loss of there loved one instead of replacing it.
Well said.
#12 Dec 1, 2008
I am dating a man who lost his wife to cancer over four years ago. We get along great. we have been a couple for over a year now. It bothers me that he still celebrates holidays, birthdays etc with his in-laws. Am I beeing to sensitive or is he being to didicated?
#13 Dec 1, 2008
I have not been in this situation myself, but my cousin has. She lost her husband to cancer also and is now dating again seriously. She also still celebrates all these occasions with in laws. I have asked her and she says that after 17 years of marriage that they became her family also. She was close to them during the marriage and still is. She says it has nothing to do really with memories or keeping the "ties" that bind...she just loves them like her own family. This may be the case in your situation or it may not be. However, if it bothers you that much, then I would take into consideration what you are willing to deal with to be with him.

Tonight is a good time to start
no you need to wate 27 more days
so you can say you went a hole
year with out any. I couldnt doit
#15 Dec 1, 2008
I would say that if there are young kids involved, maybe you should try and give them time to see how they feel about it. Give them time to come to the realization that mom or dad needs someone. I would never tell my kids that I would never date anyone again, simply because that may be a statement or promise that has become an image in their minds, and hurt them when broken. Other than that, you kept to your vows. It is now up to you to decide when. If words fly around town about how people feel to your decision, let it go, smile and live your life.

if you really in love with your spouse,i would say three month. there is nothing wrong with going out to eat with someone of the opposite sex anytime if you feel like you need other people to talk to. .

i would say a year but thats just me

my mother started dating someone only 6 months after my fathers death they were married 39 years. As far as i am concered she was probably interested in this guy all along. I am 37 years old and I loved my father deeply I still have great respect for him even if she does not. She used to be my best friend but not any longer I will hate her forever for this and refuse to meet this man as long as i am alive. This post is for all of the widows and widowers that think your the only ones affected. This is the result
#19 Jun 8, 2009
Your mother may have been your best friend but she never had a best friend in you from your answer. Your mother is a real person too with real feelings. You are a disrespectful, spoiled BRAT for feeling like you have the right to intervene in her PERSONAL life. What gives you the right to decide the appropriate way for her to act? I am in my fourties and have been married since 17. I DARE my children to tell me how to live if something happens to their father. I also love both my parents and although I know it would be hard to see them with someone else I would never wish them to be lonely in the time they have left. GROW UP and love your Mother because one day your "best friend" will be gone as well and you will be sorry.
#20 Jun 8, 2009
This is the most selfish attitude I have ever seen. This woman stood by somoene for 39 years and you want to critisize something that she done 6 months after he died! You need to go apologize to her immediately
#21 Jun 8, 2009
There is nothing selfish about my attitude. She is not the only one affected by my fathers death. If anything i think she is selfish for not thinking of him who loved and supported her all of her life. For her to try to replace him with the next sap in that short amount of time is disrepectful and if that makes her happy fine. I dont have to live with it. She just has to deal with that just like she is trying to force me to deal with it. For the record I've known quite of few people in this same situation that reacted the same way. Until your faced with that situation you can't relate.
#22 Jun 8, 2009
I agree thats more respectable.
#23 Jun 8, 2009
To say there is nothing selfish about your reaction is just, well, selfish. Think you should take your own advice..until you have been faced with lonely days and nights without the person you've been with your whole life maybe you can't relate,,or maybe you are just miserable and want your mother to be as well? Either way, face it or not, you are being VERY selfish

i think the night of the funeral is a good time lmao or meet them at the funeral and go get married lmao
#25 Jun 8, 2009
First of everyone has opinions. My opinion however, is stated from an actual situation that you have not gone through. Lucky for you, you have both of your parents. I am not saying she should never date again but she has to realize she is not the only person suffering.(I could have delt with it if she waited a respectable time)Im still in morning and just when I was not crying myself to sleep every night she springs this on me.(Oh yeah by the way this happens when you lose a parent, I know you haven't gone through that grieving process to fully understand. Having an opinion and feelings does not make someone a selfish spoiled brat. I hope you never have to walk in my shoes for your childrens sake. Obviously their opinions and feelings would not matter to you. Hmmm... that sounds kind of selfish to me. By the way your commenting on this forum for what reason.( you cant relate)

Russia Protest
Russian Police officers stand facing an opposition protest to block the road in the center of Moscow during a rally, Sunday, May 6, 2012. Thousands of protesters are gathering at a Moscow square for a march on the eve of Vladimir Putin's inauguration as president.The protest has been boldly billed by opposition leaders as the "March of a Million," but the early turnout indicates the numbers won't be anywhere close to that. About 5,000 had gathered an hour before the planned start of the Sunday march.(AP Photo/Alexander Zemlianichenko)

Synta Pharmaceuticals achieved an operational milestone triggering a $10 million payment from GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) under its collaboration for elesclomol. The drug is currently being studied in combination with paclitaxel in a Phase III trial in metastatic melanoma.
In October 2007, Synta and GSK inked a deal covering elesclomol that was worth $965 million. Synta has earned a total of $130 million to date, including $80 million up front and $25 million for milestones achieved in October and $15 million for milestones achieved in December 2008.
The company is eligible for a total of $585 million in precommercial milestone payments: $150 related to development in melanoma and the remainder related to other cancer indications. Synta is also eligible to $300 million in sales milestones, 40-50% share of operating profits in the U.S., and double-digit royalties on ex-U.S. sales.
Elesclomol is an investigational first-in-class oxidative stress inducer that triggers apoptosis in cancer cells. Enrollment for the Phase III study was completed earlier this month.

One theory for explaining "success," put forward by Amy Chua Jed Rubenfeld, posits cultural traits such as a superiority complex, personal insecurity and impulse control. Union College professors Joshua Hart and Christopher Chabris counter that intelligence, conscientiousness, and economic advantage are the most likely elements of success, regardless of ethnicity. Do you think that Hart-Chabris make a better argument for achieving success than the Chua-Rubenfeld theory?

Note: I realize now that this is extremely long. I've successfully landed my first job in the gaming industry as a Production Intern, and wanted to share my experiences, successes, failures, and lessons learned for any college undergraduates who might be in a similar spot in the future.
About 20 months ago, I was sitting in at work in a web-software summer internship wondering what I was going to do with my life. The internship was pretty good, and the work environment was pretty awesome, but I had absolutely no passion for what I was doing. I was very appreciative of the opportunity to do real work and start learning real skills, but it was obvious that the web-software industry wasn't for me.
After realizing that I really disliked my job, I started focusing on post-graduation. I'm a senior at Northwestern University graduating with a degree in Industrial Engineering this June (minors in Computer Science and Marketing). Going into my Junior year, I started asking "Well, what am I passionate about?" I came up with a list of skills - programming, computers, statistics - things I thought that were relevant to the "real business world." It was only until consulting my girlfriend (now fiance) that I was turned onto gaming.
After 20 months of hard work, I finally got into the games industry as a production intern at fairly well known studio in LA. I'll be starting as a Production Intern this coming June, and I wanted to write this so that college students who were in my spot (and I'm sure there are many) can learn from my mistakes and successes.
The first bit of advice I can give is be resilient. It took me 18 months from the time I started working to get into the gaming industry to get my first interview. In fact, it was 17 months until I got my first ounce of humanity out of the industry. I sent in resumes. I posted on forums. I marketed myself. I did everything I possibly could think of. I blindly followed huge stretches. I cold-called several studios. I applied to every position I could think of. It was painful. For 17 months, everything I did seemed to go into some meaningless black hole in which no human would ever see it. Sometimes I would get an email response from a "do not reply" email saying I was denied. All of this for simple internships. The industry seemed so insular - to get in the games industry, you already needed to be in the industry. If you weren't in the industry, no one paid any attention to you.
There were a few points where I thought it was hopeless or where I was getting desperate. During the winter of my Junior year, I felt that if I didn't get an internship, I was doomed to get into the industry for the positions I wanted. I started looking at gaming colleges and gaming graduate schools, thinking those would be the magical solution. I started lamenting my university, if that's even believable. Northwestern University - an elite college - seemed to leave me leaps and bounds behind other colleges for the only industry I wanted.
But each time I met failure, I kept going. I'd buy a new book to read on game development, or start some new programming project to add to my portfolio. Despite my failures at getting into the industry, I started having huge success for the projects I had taken on. I made 2 stand-alone PC games, which while not that impressive, could be sent out as finished projects. I made a World of Warcraft add-on that was featured on numerous fan sites and became #1 in its category with over 4,000 downloads in the first month.
And this leads me into my second bit of advice: you don't need a job to work in the industry. There was actually a definitive point in January last year where I suddenly realized that I was a producer without a job. I had finished the first major iteration of my add-on and was doing user testing, conducting interviews, and organizing feedback. I started coordinating a few of my gaming friends to help me with each task, such as creating a demo video, structuring the exact text I wanted on the add-on page, etc. I convinced one of them to start making some artwork for the add-on. And suddenly, I realized that I was doing the job of a producer. The programming was done, and now I was coordinating 3-4 people to wrap up everything else and get a solid initial release.
A lot of people come to these forums asking "how can I get into the industry" - and to be honest, it extremely easy. There's a reason that there are so many independent studios out there - there aren't any barriers to entry to the games industry. Start making your own projects. Start doing the job you want to do. If you want to be a game programmer, get C++ and OpenGL and get to work. If you want to be a QA tester, start compiling bug lists and reproduction methods in various games that you play. If you want to be an artist, start making art for a game (either new or current). If you want to be a level designer, pick up Starcraft 2 or Valve's Hammer and start making levels. If you want to be a producer, start finding people to coordinate a project with (you can find people at your University or gaming circles). Several people never even get hired into the industry at all - some people get a group of friends, make an iPhone or Droid game, throw it on the app store for 99 cents, and make thousands. Point is, you don't need someone to give you a job to start doing the work, and the work should come first.
In mid-February, I still hadn't received any response from the 30+ studios I'd applied for an internship with. I started wondering "what am I missing?" - I had an awesome add-on, a great personal website (http://www.MatthewEnthoven.com), a pretty good portfolio. But still, I wasn't having any luck. I started doing research on other candidates - my competitors - and what they had that I didn't. Through my research, I found what I was really good at: I had an awesome personal website. Aesthetically, it kicked ass, which would win me a few points here and there. I had a great University, which despite my failures, I still found as an advantage. I had finished projects that had several hundred downloads compared to broken, unfinished, and untested ones. But the one thing I was missing was a blog.
So I started my gaming blog. Initially, I wrote about 10 articles and started releasing them ever week. After 10 articles, I completely stopped. No one was reading it, and I lost all motivation to continue writing. Between guild leadership, my various programming projects, and my schoolwork, I just didn't seem to have time to write. My blog went down as an unfinished project, going 3 months or more without a single entry.

Drills buying guide
The drill is the most popular and versatile of all power tools and has become an essential in every DIY tool kit. Not only useful for drilling holes into a variety of materials, they can also be used to drive home screws (with the correct bit attached).
Consider whether you will be looking for a drill with a 'hammer' action - Not only can these drills rotate a drill bit, but they can also apply a 'hammering' action. Switch to hammer (or impact) mode, and the drill bit is vibrated and shunted forwards rapidly as it turns. This makes for quick work, especially through harder wall surfaces or materials. Fit a specialist chisel bit, and you can use your hammer drill for 'chasing' - making a channel in walls to hide wires and cables.
This guide will help you to choose the right drill for your needs - and explain the function of some of the most popular accessories.

Mainstream media ignoring Geithner
Published: Wednesday, February 4, 2009 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, February 3, 2009 at 10:49 p.m.
Dear Editor: From 2003 until this year, Timothy Geithner was the president of the New York regional Federal Reserve Bank, presiding over the failure of several large financial institutions. Now, Barack Obama and the Democrat Senate want to reward Geithner with the top job in the U.S. Treasury Department. But as Obama harshly criticizes and threatens those same Wall Street businesses for paying bonuses to their employees, he turns a blind eye to the failure of his 'financial wizard' to pay years of taxes. So how many mainstream media organizations are reporting on this hypocrisy? Go to the head of the class if you answered, 'None!'
I hope you're looking forward to three years and 51 weeks of this.
David Colpo

Can you please describe your problem with more details. Otherwise, if the problem is that iTunes will not let you update your iDevice, follow the steps below.
1. Make sure your iDevice is charged before continuing to the next step.
2. Connect your iDevice to your computer.
3. Open iTunes. (If it doesn't open automatically.)
4. Your iDevice should appear in the iTunes windows.
5. Click on your device.
6. Click "Restore" on the device page in iTunes.
7. Download the iOS firmware file.
8. After the download finishes, a dialog bog will come up. Click "Restore and Update".
9. Wait for the restore to complete.

I spent the day trying to figure this out and Windows managed to fix it with the Troubleshoot Compatability. You can access it by right clicking on the Apple Update icon in the programs section of the start menu.
