Oh boy! She is 14 weeks old. She is taking breaks from nursing to find the tv, sitting content in her bouncer because she can see it..... oh my!
I know some mamas are hard-core on no tv in baby's day. And when I can I turn it off, but she is the 5th person in this household and the other 4 all enjoy tv so we will have to be spending some time avoiding it, turning it off, and such. For now, it's a novelty for her. So funny that it's been there all along and she just discovered it!
What about your babe's!?

Liverpool hotels map
View mapLiverpool intro. The city of Liverpool may be best known as the birthplace of the Beatles, but this northwest English city's culture extends far beyond its four most famous rock and roll residents. However, one of the most unique Liverpool hotels has a Beatles theme complete with McCartney and Lennon suites. Among the sites visitors will encounter aboard the popular Magical Mystery bus tours are the relocated Cavern Club, Paul McCartney's childhood home and the Beatles Story Experience at the Albert Dock area. This renovated waterfront region also features the Merseyside Maritime Museum, but the city also boasts its own Tate Gallery as well as a museum dedicated to its renowned football club. Two large statues of the Liver birds, after which the city was named, stand at the Royal Liver Building's summit. The circular Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King and the centrally-located Anglican cathedral are the city's most impressive churches. A tall Britannia statue and giant dome tower over the mid-18th century city hall, while Europe's biggest Chinatown is found in the city.

Digital Humanities is an interdisciplinary academic field that brings digital technology to bear on the study of the human record. The Graduate Certificate Program in Digital Humanities at UNL allows graduate and post-baccalaureate students to gain scholarly credentials in Digital Humanities. Work in this area can take a variety of forms, including: digital scholarly editing; the creation of thematic research archives and resources; programmatic analysis of large-scale textual corpora; the use of geo-spatial tools and technologies to study the interaction of people and place; data mining and machine learning techniques using historical data; 3D modeling of historical buildings and artifacts; tool building and software development for humanities research; and the creation of games, interactive environments, and media systems with a humanistic focus.
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is an international leader in the field, with over a dozen faculty in the departments of Anthropology, Art & Art History, Classics & Religious Studies, English, History, Modern Languages, and the University Libraries. We are also home to the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities, and the Center and its Faculty Fellows are involved with dozens of digital projects in a range of humanities fields.
UNL's Digital Humanities faculty are recognized leaders in the field. They teach and conduct research in all areas of the Digital Humanities and participate in a variety of research efforts around the world.
The Graduate Certificate in Digital Humanities is open to graduate students currently enrolled in graduate degree programs at UNL and is also available as a standalone (non-degree) post-baccalaureate certification.
Students take a total of 12 credit hours in the area. Two of the courses are required:
- HIST/ENGL/MODL 946: Interdisciplinary Reading Seminar in Digital Humanities. An in-depth, seminar-style survey of the scholarly literature in digital humanities, theory of new media, computational history, and related topics.
- HIST/ENGL 872: Digital Humanities Practicum. This course provides students with real, in-depth experience in collaboratively building digital humanities projects in response to challenges proposed by local and regional humanities organizations.
The remaining six credit hours may be drawn from courses approved by the Certificate Program's Adviser. Examples of regularly taught courses that may be easily applied toward the certification include:
- ANTH 935: Seminar in Archaeology: Digital Anthropologies
- HIST 970: Seminar in Digital History
- HIST 870: Digital History
- ENGL 878: Digital Archives and Editions
- ENGL 898: Electronic Texts: Development and Design
- ENGL 898: Microanalysis (permanent course number pending)
- ENGL 898: Macroanalysis (permanent course number pending)
Occasionally, students may request that they be allowed to waive a requirement for a course in the Digital Humanities Graduate Certificate program because they have met the requirement through work experience, another course, or the like. If you wish to pursue a waiver for a required course, you must fill out the Digital Humanities Certificate Course Waiver Form and get it approved by the DH Certificate coordinator. It is strongly recommended that students requesting such a waiver be in conversation with the coordinator of the DH Graduate Certificate program before completing this form.

A purple Chevy Caprice. Not Venoy Overton's.
Former University of Washington basketball player and convicted pimp Venoy Overton is back in the news, this time because his car was at the center of an incident involving a known gang member, a stolen pistol, and shots fired at Seattle police.
A purple Chevy Caprice. Not Venoy Overton's.
The cops called for backup and set out in search of the shooter. When they arrived near the area where they figured the gunfire originated, they found a familiar purple Chevy Caprice. The officers note in their report that it was "immediately obvious" the car belonged to Overton, whom they had encountered during "past contacts."
Most infamously, last June the ride was described by Kent vice detectives as a "UW purple colored Chevy Caprice with rims and tinted windows." Overton used it to transport a woman to a stretch of Pacific Highway South, where he convinced her to sell herself for $200 and give him half of the proceeds. Overton eventually pleaded guilty to a felony charge of promoting prostitution in that case.
This time around, however, Overton was nowhere to be found. Instead, police encountered 19-year-old Drevonn A. Kelly, and two females. Kelly, described by King County prosecutors as "a known Valley Hood Piru gang member," was sitting in the front passenger seat.
Citing safety concerns -- including the possibility that a fourth suspect could be armed and hiding in the woods nearby -- the officers searched the car without a warrant. Beneath Kelly's seat, they found a Glock-17 9mm pistol. Nearby, they discovered four spent 9mm shell casings, situated, court documents say, "directly downrange" from where the officers were standing earlier when the bullets were flying.
A subsequent search of the Caprice turned up a 9mm Glock 31-round extended magazine, loaded with 19 bullets. And, when police investigated the origin of the pistol, they learned that it had previously been reported stolen by a King County Corrections Officer whose home was burglarized.
Kelly has a lengthy rap sheet that includes felony convictions for unlawful possession of a firearm, assault with a deadly weapon, and residential burglary, among other charges. As such, he's not allowed to own or possess any gun, let alone one stolen from a prison guard.
Kelly is now charged with first-degree unlawful possession of a firearm, and is being held in lieu of $100,000 bail.
As for Overton, it's unclear where he was when the incident unfolded, and how Kelly ended up with his car. An SPD spokesman declined to answer both of those questions, citing an ongoing investigation.
If it turns out Overton was in any way involved in the shooting, or had knowledge of the stolen pistol, he could face a lengthy prison sentence (up to five years) for violating the terms of his plea agreement in the pimping case.
The purple Caprice, meanwhile, was reportedly towed from Seward Park to SPD's evidence processing room, and released on July 5. Court documents don't specify who picked up the car, or where it ended up when all was said and done.
It's also worth noting that this isn't Kelly's first police encounter involving a Chevy Caprice and an illegal 9 mm. According to court records, he was arrested last August for unlawful possession of a firearm, a Luger model C9. In that incident, Kelly was driving a '93 Caprice in South Seattle when officers pulled him over for making an illegal turn.
In addition to the pistol, the cops found a roach in the ashtray, and an unusual note in the glove compartment. Written on lined notebook paper was a message signed by Jose Alvarad that said the car given to Kelly "as a gift" ten days prior.
Whether Overton bestowed a similar present remains to be seen.

(karaoke version here)
In the 50s and 60s, there were the various Mood Kayo bands and their music filling the bars and izakayas as much as the sake and whiskey were filling up the glasses there. On the one side, there were the Latin-based MK groups such as Los Indios and Los Primos, but on the other side, other such groups decided to go Hawaiian. The Mahina Stars were one such band. They started up in 1953 originally under the leadership of Ginji Yamaguchi(山口銀次)until the following year when Yamaguchi retired, leaving steel guitarist Hiroshi Wada(和田弘)as the new man in charge. As usual for such bands, suits were often the sartorial norm.
In June 1965, one of their most popular songs was released, "Aishite, Aishite, Aishichattanoyo"(Love, Love, I've Ended Up Falling In Love). Partnering up with Miyoko Tashiro(田代美代子), this cute little ditty has become a standard for a number of singers. I used to hear it from time to time on the stereo, and remember watching one of the singalong segments on the 1981 Kohaku Utagassen when a mix of aidoru and enka singers took turns at it, with Seiko Matsuda(松田聖子) being one of them.
And as a bit of a Merry Xmas, here is Seiko Matsuda's(松田聖子) very brief version of it at the 1981 Kohaku Utagassen.

"Mora, a little town in East Central Minnesota" Mora by Kerana5
Mora Travel Guide: 10 reviews and 32 photos
Mora is a small town in East Central Minnesota, located on Hwy 65. It is the halfway point between the Twin Cities and Duluth.
Mora is the County Seat for Kannabec County and was founded in 1882.
It is a sister city to Mora, Sweden and one can see evidence of the strong bonds between the two places by things such as the huge Dalla horse or the Swedish clock on Main Street in Mora, MN.
- Pros:Good location for crosscountry skiing, hunting deer, fishing. Hinkley Grand Casino is nearby.
- Cons:So small that there is not much in the way of night life, and there is almost no accomodations in town.

When the Lone Tree Arts Center kicks off its annual "Home for the Holidays" extravaganza Dec. 12, audience members will find themselves dazzled by athletic dancing, lively music and a thrilling drumline.
Something for everyone, right?
Not quite. For audience members on the autism spectrum, or with other disabilities that involve sensory challenges, the show can be overwhelming.
So this year, on Dec. 17, LTAC will mount a special, "sensory-friendly" performance of "Home for the Holidays."
According to marketing director Katie Maltais, the show, and the theater itself, will be modified to make the show more accessible.
"The lights will only go down halfway," said Maltais. "The sound is brought down. There's no clapping. We'll have a 'safe room' set up so audience members can leave and regroup if necessary. The entire thing is designed to make the show enjoyable for people with special needs."
But perhaps the biggest difference? "We're creating a safe environment for people with special needs and their families and friends," Maltais said. "No judgment."
LTAC consulted with Developmental Pathways, a Denver agency that serves people with developmental and intellectual disabilities, when designing the performance and training their staff. Developmental Pathways, Charles Schwab and Starkey Theatrix helped underwrite the program, so all tickets are just $25.
"It's always been on our radar but we've never done a full production this way," Maltais said. " 'Home for the Holidays' should be something for all ages and the whole family, and this felt like a hole we wanted to fill."
For more information and tickets to the Dec. 17 show, visit lonetreeartscenter.org or call 720-509-1000.

Ferran Adrià is the most influential chef, living or dead, period. He's also likely the most controversial. At his Catalonia restaurant El Bulli, Adrià has spent the last few decades turning the culinary world on its head, breaking rules, toying with emotions, and inventing never-before-conceived ways of imagining food.
Unfortunately, you may know Adrià best by his most extreme techniques, which are often implemented poorly by far lesser chefs (yep, I've been guilty of that). His most recognizable methods include making foams and turning liquids into encapsulated spheres, both of which quickly deteriorate rather quickly from masterful haute techniques into party gags. However, in the hands of (by all accounts) a master/genius/sorcerer/+5000 Mana Food Priest, these methods can contribute to a transformative, even transcendent dining experience.
Through author Colman Andrews' unprecedented access to Adrià, we learn about his fascinating and serendipitous career progression from military dishwasher to short-order beach bum, eventually becoming the most renowned chef in the world.We also learn much of the history of El Bulli and how the location, landscape, and struggling seasonality of the restaurant ultimately contributed to its unlikely success.
What we don't learn, though, is much about Adrià personally. Although he dispenses a bevy of prolific statements throughout the chapters, nearly nothing is written about his life outside the kitchen, his wife, or his relationships with friends. In fact, reading about his many simultaneous projects and ventures, I began to wonder if there was any off-duty time to discuss at all!
Skeptics of "molecular gastronomy," a term which Adrià and others abhor, may find this book less than satisfying--the brief chapter on the opposition to Adrià 's food only lightly grazes the surface of the common knee-jerk responses to modernist cooking, and regrettably does very little to dispel the pervasive untruths frequently held against Adrià and his disciples. However, for a geek like me wishing to emulate the patterns and unbounded thinking that made Ferran Adria such a powerful force in the modernist food movement, this book was a fantastic glimpse into the mind of a genius.

Host: What are women looking for in a man before they will have sex?
Gloria Macdonald: Women are far more complex than men in all kinds, it varies. But when we did focus groups and did surveys on a woman's definition of chemistry and what they were looking for in a man before they will have sex. There are four main things and in each one these is somewhat complex. So, the first one they are looking for is that the man is acceptable to them. So, acceptable means that he has got some level of self confidence and self respect, that he is kind, that he is generous, that he is chivalrous, a whole long laundry list of things. But the man has to acceptable to the woman. The next thing that women are looking for is that there is some future to this relationship that there is some possibility of a long term relationship here. With no possibility of a long term relationship most women are not really interested in a one night stand. It does not mean that women won't do it, but it is not what they are looking, it is not their heart's desire, it is not where they really want to go.
The third thing women are looking for is that the man is willing to be monogamous which is different from a long term relationship. You could have a long term relationship with someone that's not monogamous, but in this case, women are looking for the fact that the man does not have his emotions spread too thin, that his emotions and his emotional ability to commit is strictly to her, that he does not have some leftover feelings for an Ex girlfriend or an Ex wife or something like that, but that she will be the soul place where his emotions are committed.
The fourth thing women are looking for is that there is at least some level of physical attractiveness. So, for men physical attractiveness is number one in chemistry and for women, that's the lowest thing on the total poll, believe it or not. Now, women might not be able to articulate this if you told women that the last thing they are looking for is physical attractiveness, they might say, "Oh! No, that's not true.
" But through lots and lots of research and study with professional psychologist and asking very specific questions in different ways, we actually found that the physical attractiveness for the most part is the lowest thing on the woman's total poll of a variety of things she is looking for before she will actually have sex with a man.

The Medo-Persian empire is considered the most powerful of the ancient empires. At the height of its power, during the reign of Darius I the Great, the empire controlled more than 2.9 million square miles (7.5 million square kilometers) of land and spanned three continents (Asia, Africa and Europe). Its control extending eastward into India and reached westward to Greece. Its capitals were Persepolis and Susa, with its kings sometimes residing in Babylon.
It is estimated that in 480 B.C. the empire had 50 million people living until its control. This hugh amount was roughly 44% of the world's population at the time, making Persia the largest empire ever in terms by population percentage.

Seven activists in Astana who protested against Kazakhstan's entry into the Eurasian Economic Union (EES) have been sentenced to jail terms of up to four days.
In addition, three journalists who covered the May 27 protest in the town of Ilyinka, near Astana, were sentenced to four days of administrative arrest, including RFE/RL correspondent Orken Zhoyamergen.
Zhoyamergen was found guilty of minor hooliganism late on May 27.
In a statement, RFE/RL's Editor In Chief Nenad Pejic condemned Zhoyamergen's arrest as a violation of media freedom. "He should be released immediately together with the other journalists," Pejic said.
Police initially detained 20 activists who had gathered in Ilyinka to plan a protest action scheduled for May 29, the day when Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbaev is expected to host his Russian and Belarusian counterparts — Vladimir Putin and Alyaksandr Lukashenka — and sign an agreement on the creation of the EES.
Half of the detained men and women were later released.

Creativity across the Domains
In the preceding chapters, I have related the stories of seven remarkable human beings, each of whom made an indelible mark in one or more domains while also contributing uniquely to the shape of the modern era. Their stories are, I trust, of interest in their own right. Yet, given my focus on the conceptualization of creativity, I need to step back and discuss which lessons hold for the study of creativity in general.
In chapter 2, I introduced a framework for treating the complex issues of creativity. Explicitly developmental, that framework features a concern with the creators' childhoods, as related to their adult creativity; an interest in phases of development across the fife span; and a focus on the finer-grained steps that characterize moments of breakthrough. I posited a dynamic that appears to characterize all creative activity: an ongoing dialectic among talented individuals, domains of expertise, and fields charged with judging the quality of creations. According to my formulation, this dynamic is often characterized by various kinds of tensions and asynchronies: provided that the asynchronies are not overwhelming, they should prove conducive to the fostering of creative individuals, processes, and products. Finally, I suggested a set of guiding themes, most of which provided background for the study, but two of which emerged, unexpectedly, from the study itself
That framework has now been put to work, implicitly in the case studies and more explicitly in the three interludes. In this concluding chapter, I examine explicitly a number, but certainly not all, of the issues raised thus far. I touch on the major questions that motivated the study, providing,

text: 000 FXUS63 KPAH 270003 AFDPAH Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Paducah KY 703 PM CDT TUE APR 26 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Thursday night) Issued at 241 PM CDT Tue Apr 26 2016 Isolated to scattered showers have started to develop across our northern counties in the warm unstable air south of a warm front. Thunderstorm complex in east central Missouri will continue to move east southeast, reaching our northwest counties around 20z, and sliding across our northern counties through 00z. Models indicate the warm front will continue to meander near the Interstate 64 corridor into tonight. Locations near the front will be the better focus for showers and storms, though isolated to scattered showers and storms will be possible area wide through the overnight. By late tonight, the eastward progression of a cold front will bring a surge of moisture/showers and thunderstorms into our western counties. The approach and passage of the cold front will keep widespread showers and storms across our entire region through the day Wednesday and into Wednesday evening. Showers and storms will taper off from west to east late Wednesday night into Thursday. Models show the cold front east of our area by midday Thursday, so just a few showers and storms may linger in our far eastern counties mainly early in the day. South winds across the region will keep us unseasonably warm tonight into Wednesday night. Low temperatures tonight will be in the lower to middle 60s, and just couple of degrees cooler for Wednesday night in the upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs on Wednesday will be in the upper 70s to around 80 degrees. A weak upper level ridge will briefly build into our region late Thursday into Thursday night. This will help give a brief break in our stormy weather pattern. Temperatures will remain warm on Thursday with highs in the upper 70s to around 80 degrees, but winds will shift to the northwest by Thursday night. This will drop lows back into the middle to upper 50s, which is actually still above seasonal normals. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Tuesday) Issued at 241 PM CDT Tue Apr 26 2016 The forecast for the long term period continues to indicate a rather wet period. Average confidence in the first half of the long term period, then below average in the second half due to greater model differences. A closed H5 low moving northeast out of the four corners region on Friday will induce a surface low over the panhandle of Texas on a frontal boundary extending from the low to the south of our area. This will generate an overrunning rain event that is forecast to push showers and thunderstorms into our far western counties by Friday afternoon. As the system slowly approaches, precipitation chances continue to ramp up Friday into Friday night, with the highest chances area wide being Saturday and Saturday night with the passage of the system. In its wake, precipitation chances are expected to taper off from the west but will linger from Sunday into Monday due to the presence of upstream upper level energy and decent moisture. Monday night into Tuesday the latest GFS and ECMWF deterministic models are showing weak H5 ridging, little to no deep layer moisture, and high pressure at the surface, therefore no QPF forecast. However the Superblend and GEFS ensembles thinks there`s a chance for showers, albeit small, in those periods so will keep pops low. Temperatures remain at or above normal through the period. && .AVIATION... Issued at 703 PM CDT Tue Apr 26 2016 One complex has moved through all of the WFO PAH TAF sites, except KOWB. Another around will be expected between 06z-14z time frame over the forecast area. Reintroduced MVFR ceilings and briefly IFRs/LIFR with greatest threat period for thunderstorms overnight. Another round of showers are expected in the 21z-24z Wednesday time frame, but visibilities should remain in VFR category. && .PAH Watches/Warnings/Advisories... IL...None. MO...None. IN...None. KY...None. && $$ SHORT TERM...RST LONG TERM...JP AVIATION...Smith

Almost every government bond market – across both developed and emerging economies – is experiencing rising yields as U.S. Treasuries get cheaper, yield more, and thus become more attractive to global investors.
At the same time, fears that the Federal Reserve may begin to taper back monetary stimulus – which have been driving the rise in Treasury yields – are now seeping into equity markets as well, and stocks are selling off.
In a note to clients this afternoon, Miller Tabak Chief Economic Strategist Andrew Wilkinson asks, "Which domino are you watching?"
" There are simply too many (ugly) charts we could stick inside [of this note] and so we stopped short of doing so," says Wilkinson. " It is hard not to feel as though we are watching out for the lead domino to topple – the one that could set off a chain reaction."
Here's Wilkinson's take:
The pain continues across the Emerging Globe. Having fallen to a two-year low earlier in the week, Brazil's benchmark Ibov index is lower again today. Mexico's stocks slid by 2.00% in the face of rising volatility in US stocks. The CBOE Vix index is fast-approaching last week's peak and the highest since mid-April.
And then there is the little matter of the yen, whose vacillations continue to trip-up US equity prices. As we noted late on Tuesday the Japanese unit was closing stronger than when it snapped the dollar's grip last week. And more problematic was a broadening of the yen's advance against the euro currency, British pound and the Aussie dollar. The dollar index just snapped to a two-month low midweek indicating a decidedly risk-off mood and one that hardly supports the earlier return for risk-appetite signaled by a move higher for equity prices.
Finally, the S&P 500 has slowly returned to beneath Friday's low – the low supported by an above consensus payroll reading. Failure to hold that level could arguably cause stocks to have a stab at the fear-inspired lows of last week at 1598.
There are so many dominoes just waiting to topple that we're no longer sure what to watch.
Wilkinson flags the unwind in the short-yen trade as a source of weakness in U.S. stock prices. Click here to read why the dollar-yen exchange rate has become so important >

Editorial - Before seeking money, ensure current buildings used to full potential
Published: Saturday, December 15, 2012 at 3:39 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, December 15, 2012 at 3:39 p.m.
The two newest members have barely had time to find their seats, but the New Hanover County school board already is preparing to decide whether to ask for $284 million to build new schools, replace two aging schools and make overdue renovations to many others. While they are pondering that multimillion-dollar question, however, the new members and their more experienced counterparts also should actively commit to ensuring that racially and socioeconomically disadvantaged schools get the resources, excellent teachers, and energetic, creative administrators they need to close the unacceptable achievement gap between the county's high-poverty and low-poverty schools.
While the school district could and should make better use of existing school buildings – and at least one that was converted to a preschool center to avoid angering some white residents who did not want their children in a downtown school – there is no question that population growth in the Porters Neck area may require construction of a new elementary school.
Likewise, several older schools need either extensive renovation or outright replacement, and school administrators believe the board should focus on two older elementary schools: Blair, which is currently overcrowded and needs work, and College Park. Both schools would have larger capacities after being torn down and rebuilt, a wise move.
New Hanover County voters approved $123 million for school construction and renovation in 2005. Almost as soon as it had passed, school officials speculated that another bond issue would be necessary in just a few years. Seven years later, that time apparently has come.
But before the county commissioners approve going to the voters with a $284 million request, they should demand that the school board provide an inventory of existing buildings owned by the school system, including those that have been closed as elementary schools and used for other purposes. The list should outline the condition of those buildings as well as capacity and their current use.
The board also should draft a policy stating assurances that redistricting would not leave half-empty schools, as was the case when Holly Shelter Middle School opened. New Hanover County taxpayers have been very generous when it comes to meeting the capital needs of the school system, but the schools owe it to the taxpayers to make the best use of all the available resources.
In addition, the school board should adopt a policy that, when possible, new school buildings be built where they can easily draw from diverse racial and socioeconomic areas. If this board is committed to the misnamed "neighborhood schools" concept – most neighborhoods in this county do not have a school within safe walking distance – then it should make a concerted effort to put schools where the "neighborhood" is not homogenous.
Study after study after study shows that schools with high percentages of students from low-income households and/or troubled neighborhoods have a substantial disadvantage from the beginning. They are far more likely to be labeled "failing" schools because their students begin their educations several steps behind students from well-educated, comfortably middle class families.
The school board is not responsible only for the happiness and academic success of students in the latter category; its members represent the entire student body and their parents. That means they need to listen to all the parents, and to take it personally when individual New Hanover County Schools perform below what state and national standards dictate.
Although four members have served several terms and one is entering his second, the two new members, Lisa Estep and Tammy Covil, have the opportunity to bring new ideas to the table. However, the entire board has an obligation to the nearly 25,000 students in the New Hanover County schools to do what is necessary to close an income- and race-based achievement gap that threatens the future economy of an increasingly diverse state.
If the theory is that so-called "neighborhood schools" provide the best opportunity for parent involvement and student achievement, let's see the school board come up with policies to make that happen – and to be actively involved in accomplishing that important goal.
Students need a safe, uncramped space in which to learn. But schools are more than buildings; it's what's inside them that counts most.
