WholeFoods Magazine SourceBook: The Natural Products Directory
If sexual intimacy with your partner isn't as enjoyable as it once was, you're not alone. Many factors such as stress, hormone imbalances and life changes can cause dysfunction in the bedroom, hurting relationships and even egos. You may be tempted to turn to drug store variety lubricants or medications for help, but they may actually cause more harm than good. Let's take a look at some natural intimacy and vitality products that can reignite a flickering flame!
My wife, Barbara, was raised in a magical mushroom land in southeastern Pennsylvania between Kennett Square and Lancaster. I vividly remember the stimulation of my olfactory system as I drove through the lands neighboring Kaolin where mushroom soils and fertilizers were produced.
"It's not what you don't know that kills you, it's what you know for sure that ain't true." How many of us have heard this truism by Mark Twain many a time and nodded our heads in agreement? Well, it certainly applies to business.
This issue of WholeFoods has been on my mind for months. It's WholeFoods Magazine's 30th anniversary of ownership under the Wainer Family, and I wanted to make the coverage special.
If you've read about weight loss recently, chances are you've come across green coffee bean extract. Brought into the spotlight by physician and TV show host Dr. Oz, green coffee bean extract is hailed as one of the better and safer weight-loss supplements on the market today. But did you know research has shown it to be useful in other areas of health, too?
How can parents learn what they need to know about the most common and worrisome issues of infancy and early childhood, including colic, diarrhea, feeding problems, ear infections, colds, flu, fever, allergies and over-the-counter drugs? How can they learn about the nutrients their toddlers need? Much of the information available online and even from "official" sources is questionable. Fortunately, pediatrician Ralph K. Campbell, M.D., and nutritionist/educator Andrew W. Saul, Ph.D., have published a new book that helps address these problems.
A Brief History
In June of 2002, H.J. Heinz Co. introduced the first organic ketchup by a mainstream, mass market food producer. Up until that time, only then-niche organic brands such as Muir Glen, Walnut Acres and the private label line of supernatural retailer, Austin, TX-based Whole Foods Markets, had risked venturing into the small but fast-growing branded organic foods segment. Around this time, conventional supermarkets were in various stages of toe-dipping into the natural and organic waters, expanding and then shrinking shelf space for the products depending on their stomach for risk. By 2003, the U.S. had entered a recession—mild by comparison to the Great Recession of 2007–2009—which caused a slowdown in sales of natural and organic foods within these traditional supermarkets.
The thing I hate most about visiting the doctor is being reduced to a number. In the race to get to the next patient, far too many physicians scan the "high" or "low" column of a lab report, not even caring to look at the numbers within the range or consider other factors that affect a patient's health. Instead, they swiftly move to the prescription pad faster than you can say, "Take two, and call me in the morning."
Savvy shoppers are always looking to get the most "bang for their buck," even when it comes to their dietary supplements. Green foods, with their wide variety of benefits ranging from fighting bad breath to acting as anticarcinogens, are some of nature's best multitaskers.

2014 Portland Swap MeetWritten by on April 30, 2014
Wouldn't it be cool to have something fun to make a run to the parts store, haul stuff home from a swap meet, or go garage hopping on the weekends? Sure, street rods are fun, but they're not exactly utilitarian. Maybe its time to think about a parts chaser—something unique, but useful. At the 2014 Portland Swap Meet we went looking for such vehicles.
We've always thought station wagons were cool, all you have to do is look at an old movie or television show to see how common they were in the '50s, 60s and 70s. Back then station wagons were available in models ranging from plain grocery getters to chrome trim-laden, country club status symbols. Similar in design, but more utilitarian in nature, are sedan deliveries. Less room for passengers, but lots more space for stuff, and thanks to the lack of windows, all your treasures are out of sight.
Another group of parts chasers we've always been intrigued by are those pickups that aren't really trucks, El Caminos and Rancheros. The beauty of these light-duty gems is that they ride and handle like a car, but can still carry a reasonable load. Add to that the fact that just about any aftermarket or performance part that fits the car version of these vehicles is adaptable to the "sort of a pickup" version as well.
We found a number of vehicles that were perfect parts chasers, and judging by the number of sold signs there lots of other street rodders that also think they're pretty cool. Take a look and see what you think.

Wagons are sure hot right now. We thought this '65 Nova wagon was a good buy at $13,500. This should be a great driver as power comes from a 283 backed by a Powerglide.Complete with a roof rack full of vintage camping gear, this '55 Buick Century wagon was up for grabs at $13,750. Looking very original from end to end, it packed a 322 nailhead and a Dynaflow.We've always thought a Ranchero would make a great parts chaser. This extremely clean '65 was priced right at $4,500—which would leave plenty in the budget for a 5.0 swap.Looking for something different? How about a Volvo wagon? What a sleeper this would be with a small-block-something under the hood. This Swedish gem wasn't for sale, a vendor was hauling goodies in it, which is just what we would do.You couldn't haul much with this American Bantam pickup, but you'd have fun doing it, although you'd have to have a skinny passenger if you wanted company. Beautifully restored, the asking price was $35,000.Could this '68 Plymouth be considered a muscle wagon? Said to have gone just 46,000 miles, it had fresh paint and upholstery and a recently built 360 V-8. Lowered and equipped with Road Runner suspension and brakes, the price tag was $16,900.It seemed like 2014 was the year of the Falcon. This wagon had nice paint, a cool roof rack and a $7,600 price tag.Sales were surprisingly good and there were lots of sold signs by Friday, and there were still two days to go. This nice '57 Ford Ranchero went early for an undisclosed amount.
There can't be too many '49 Pontiac sedan deliveries around, but since it's basically a Chevy body with a Poncho front clip, parts availability shouldn't be a problem. We thought this one deserved the full-on GTO running gear swap. Asking price was $2,500 and it included a clean title.This '51 Chevy sedan delivery has frenched headlights, a nosed hood, and nice paint. Under the hood it features a hopped up inline six-cylinder equipped with three single-barrel Rochester carbs, Fenton split cast-iron exhaust manifolds, and an aluminum rocker cover. Asking price was $22,500.

CINCINNATI (AP) - The Cincinnati Reds and free-agent infielder Jack Hannahan have finalized a two-year contract, giving the team added depth at third base.
The 32-year old, reunited with former Cleveland teammate Shin-Soo Choo, hit .244 for the Indians last season with 16 doubles, four homers and 29 RBIs in 105 games. His playing time was limited by a minor back injury.
In six big league seasons with Detroit, Oakland, Seattle and Cleveland, Hannahan has made 451 appearances at third base, 39 at first, nine at shortstop and one at second.

ATLANTA -- Dr. Lewis Jackson, 34, of Atlanta, pleaded guilty Monday in federal district court to sexually assaulting three inmates at the United States Penitentiary in Atlanta.
United States Attorney Sally Quillian Yates said, "The inmates Dr. Jackson saw at the United States Penitentiary had a right to humane treatment during their incarceration. Instead, Dr. Jackson used his authority to sexually abuse prisoners. His plea today comes as he continues to face similar sexual abuse allegations in Washington, D.C. relating to his alleged abuse of inmates there."
According to United States Attorney Yates, the charges and other information presented in court, from January 2011 through July 2012, Jackson was a physician at the United States Penitentiary in Atlanta where he provided medical care to inmates in USP's medical ward.
The prison houses medium security male inmates and has a satellite camp for minimum security male inmates.
In October 2011, Jackson molested three inmates who were seeking medical treatment at the USP. In each case, Jackson tried to perform oral sex on the inmates during the course of their medical exams. In one case, Jackson also attempted to engage in anal sex with an inmate.
When confronted by special agents with the Department of Justice, Office of Inspector General, Jackson originally denied engaging in the sex acts. After agents played an undercover recording made by one of the inmates, however, Jackson admitted he had attempted to perform a series of sex acts on the inmates.
Jackson was recently indicted in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia with three counts of sexually abusing another inmate in the District of Columbia Jail in 2008.
According to that indictment, Jackson performed a series of sex acts on the inmate after he sought medical treatment while in jail. Jackson was on bond in that case at the time of his arrest in Atlanta.
Jackson was indicted by a federal grand jury on August 28, 2012, and charged with three counts of sexually abusing a ward and one count of lying to federal agents.
The most serious charges relating to the sexual abuse of the prisoners carries a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. In determining the actual sentence, the Court will consider the United States Sentencing Guidelines, which are not binding, but provide appropriate sentencing ranges for most offenders.
This case is being investigated by Special Agents of the Department of Justice, Office of Inspector General. Assistant United States Attorney Kurt R. Erskine is prosecuting the case. Sentencing is scheduled for February 7, 2013, at 10:00 a.m., before United States District Judge Amy Totenberg.

We of the V.F.C.S.D. have a weakness for lots of things—cocktails, kale, cookies, Downton Abbey, not necessarily in that order—but the thing that we really, really like if ever the opportunity presents itself (and sometimes even when it doesn't) is dancing. And last night's musical throw-down, D.J. Night, at Teddy's at the Hollywood Roosevelt hotel, did not disappoint. Hosted by L'Oréal Paris and the gorgeous actress and L'Oréal Paris spokeswoman Freida Pinto, D.J. Night was the hot-spot-to-be for young Hollywood who came out in support of the global campaign 10 x 10 and its film, Girl Rising, which both seek to educate girls around the world through film and advocacy. Notables such as Dev Patel, Jessica Lowdnes, Jason George, Alex Morgan, Debby Ryan, Zoe Lister Jones, and the cool Chloë Moretz (who also lent her voice to the film) were inspired not only by 10 x 10 but also by the two incredible turntable performances by D.J. Ms. Nix and D.J. AcE, otherwise known as Trey Smith—son of Will "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" Smith—who has clearly inherited his dad's gift for the get-down. When guests weren't cutting it up, they were sipping the L'Oréal Paris French Caresse 75 cocktail (a delish mélange of strawberry, rosemary vodka, lime, agave, and champers); enjoying touch-ups at the L'Oréal Paris beauty bar; mugging in the V.F. photo booth; and drooling over the black Fiat Abarth that was on display. "We want the women to feel amazing tonight, that's what it's all about," D.J. AcE said, and he certainly meant it: the night hit a fever pitch when Mr. Smith joined his son in the D.J. booth and Trey's younger brother, Jaden, and his friends lit up the dance floor. After that, the party was in full swing—and a very long way from stopping.

Marion Oaks man accused of photographing boy at urinal
Published: Friday, May 24, 2013 at 12:33 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, May 24, 2013 at 10:52 p.m.
A 63-year-old Marion Oaks man was arrested Thursday after sheriff's officials say he used a cellphone to photograph a 10-year-old boy using the urinal in a store restroom.
Maximo Deherrera charged with video voyeurism, according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office. The crime was reported at the Walmart Supercenter on Southwest State Road 200 shortly after 3 p.m.
Deherrera and a friend went to the store to get groceries. The friend said Deherrera left, then came back and said he was being accused of taking pictures of a boy in the bathroom. She said he admitted taking a picture of the juvenile, but said it was an accident.
According to a Sheriff's Office report, Detective Clint Smith reviewed store surveillance video, which showed that when Deherrera left his friend, he walked to an aisle in front of the toy section. He then followed the boy from the aisle to the bathroom.
A witness, Peter Farley, was behind Deherrera as he walked in the restroom and saw that the camera/video was activated on his smartphone. Farley told authorities he saw Deherrera slide the phone down the side of the urinal divider and snap a picture of the boy using the urinal next to him. Farley said he saw the flash go off and immediately knew what the man was doing, reports note.
Farley said he confronted Deherrera, who started to delete photos from his phone.
Farley alerted Walmart staff and followed Deherrera out of the store.
Deherrera told Smith he accidentally took a photograph with his cellphone while standing next to the boy in the bathroom. He said he deleted the picture after he was confronted by the witness.
Deherrera's friend Margarita Robles said, "I'm shocked. I've known him for many years through the church, and I don't believe he would do something like that. He has grandchildren." She said if it was an accident, then "no problem." She also said Deherrera's daughter is arranging his bail, which is set at $20,000.
MCSO spokesperson Jimmy Pogue urged parents to think twice before leaving their children alone in public places.
Detectives said they plan to request a search warrant for Deherrera's phone as the investigation continues.

this will be both of ours first elk, and with the bow none the less!
just getting the positivity started early!

how awesome is it going to be to have a father and son both take their first elk in the same season both with bows!
willing to share a lil elk meat for any positive karma passed this way
wishing everyone else success this fall, be it elk, or other... good luck, shoot a big one!

Congrats! That's definitely awesome! and good luck!
Best of luck to your hunting party HuskyMusky. I hope you will have a positive, successful and fun trip ahead.
Good luck Husky.
It feels like your year to me.
Best of Luck Bro!!! I feel your pain. This season will be my 6th!!! And if lucky will be my first elk. I have drawn on only a few...only to not have the shot. Yet its so addictive I keep going back every year to try again!!
Good luck and may the biggest bull fall from your arrow!
I hunt because......
Keep up with the positive attitude. Last year I kept joking around that I was going to shoot a 5x4 buck, and everyone kept telling me that I was full of crap. 10 min. into opening morning a 5x4 steps out and dropped him with one shot.
Best of luck to you, I'm also shooting for my first elk!
Go for it man! You can do it!!
Good luck man!! Living the dream!!!
Shoot a monster and keep the positive attitude! I said the next muley we would see was a big 4 point last year and no one believed and 20 minutes later a giant 4 point showed up but missed him.

Gael Monfils took the "scenic" route to Kuala Lumpur but still managed to grab an opening round win.
The Frenchie, who won his first title in four years at Metz last weekend, defeated Denis Istomin 7-6(3), 7-6(2) after arriving at his hotel at 9am in the morning. After winning the title on Sunday he had rented a car in Metz to get to his home in Geneva since there were no flights available and arrived at 3am. Then, he took a flight to Paris on Tuesday to catch another flight leaving for Kuala Lumpur arriving this morning. He only had an hour at the hotel before leaving for his 10am practice. Phew.
Great effort La Monf, but a thumbs WAY down on the hairy situation. Seriously, when did you find the time to get your hair done?
Anyway, I hope you don't think you can hide that mess - unless it came with the hat. Then, you're excused.

Hey Rich, you don't think it's better than the troll situation he's had going on for the past couple of years? I mean, sure, this looks horrible, but the way it's been now for a while has been ridiculous!ReplyDelete
No, no, no! Like someone said on Twitter he looks like a Milli Vanilli reject. Bring me the troll!!! LOLReplyDelete
Finally, a Monfils post! I got to DANCE WITH HIM!!! :)ReplyDelete
It was only a minute or two, but I can't tell you how thrilled I was. Then embarrassed, because there is no way this old body should be dancing with him. It was a disgrace and disservice to America. Thank God the only people who saw it were the hotel staff setting up for the next event and his coach.
The song playing was Morris Day and The Time's "Jungle Love." Can anyone blame me for dancing???
I remember I saw an interview on French TV with Gael a few years ago and he had the braid thing going (sans hat) and he looked effing hot. I hope that underneath the cap it looks like it did back then because I want to tap that. Not going to lie though, I'd tap that either way.ReplyDelete
natch: Guuurl, be careful. All of La Monf's dances should come with a warning: "These moves may throw your back out. Proceed with caution. Or else. Just sayin'."ReplyDelete

Readers say Murray makes Aussie Open final, loses support (in a good way)
Thanks to everyone who participated in the DtL's first weekly poll featuring Aussie Open fave Andy Murray.
Based on your votes, an overwhelming 42% of readers think the Brit baller will at least make the finals while 28% believed he'll get that much-needed suntan while still longing for Ross Hutchins sightings (get in line). That result was closely followed by 22% of readers who think his results will mimic last year's when he was knocked out of the first round by Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Only 7% believe Andy has this major sign, sealed, and delivered.
Well good news for Team Murray today: the 21-year old, who was spotted with some questionable support on the practice courts yesterday, was seen without any taping in practice today. Phew!
Let's just hope that (most likely) tired knee holds up this entire fortnight.
*fingers crossed, now toes*
PS - Look out for this week's poll which I'll post later today!

I have been bombarding my BFF with pics of Murray. I tell her "I'm so sorry babe but I gotta give you more pics of ginge hotness."ReplyDelete
He's totally hot. His talent makes him hot. His smart play on court makes him hot. His visible hard work off season makes him hot. The fact that he's not bad looking makes him hot too. And he's having some photo-op fun, good for him. All work and no play will kill anyone.
So stuff it, anon haters.

Tessa, you find him attractive, I don't. Period. It's his pastiness and his face. And I didn't know you knew my boyfriend. If you like him, fine. Feel comfortable with that and get over it.ReplyDelete

ATLANTA -- Most passengers get the required snack of a bottle of water and a granola bar when their stuck on an airport tarmac for more than two hours, it's required by the Department of Transportation (DOT).
But for a group of Delta passengers diverted away from Atlanta during Monday night's severe hail, rain and windstorm and forced to land in Knoxville, it was a different story.
MORE | Delta passengers surprised by pizza delivery on tarmac
A Knoxville police officer delivered 60 hot pizzas to the diverted plane.
"They put the pizzas on the back seat of a cop car," said one surprised Delta passenger from inside the plane.
"People were taking photos left and right and the flight attendants couldn't stop laughing over it," he added.
Michele Carson-Vaughn, Delta Director of Field Services for the Southeast says the pizza was the idea of the airline's Knoxville station manager.
"He called the pizza place and said I need 60 pizzas as soon as possible and brought them in," she said.
"We got the TSA to work with us to clear them through security, then we had the police show up and say--let us go and deliver them and by the way--we will put our lights on," Carson-Vaughn added.
And that's just what they did.
With federal rules now requiring snacks for passengers stuck on the tarmac for more than 2 hours, getting a pizza is still a big surprise.
"I think it's awesome, especially if people have kids on the plane. You can imagine kids going hungry and screaming," said Shellandra Schrader, an airline passenger.
And Knoxville wasn't the only place for surprised Delta passengers.
With 12 flights diverted to Savannah, Delta rustled up 160 pizzas for hundreds of passengers waiting it out for the weather to clear in Atlanta.
"It was still hot too. That was the best part," said a passenger opening up a pizza box on the grounded Delta flight in Knoxville.

Competitive Cyclist Short Sleeve Boy's T-Shirt $0.00
Football, soccer, and video games are all great fun, but nothing befits childhood more than pedaling away on a bike. Kids, by virtue of their kidhood, are competitive cyclists. Most common, of course, is the race vs. bro/sis. But the intensity is just the same for solo rides -- making believe they're toe-to-toe vs. Lance in the Tour or imagining they're at light speed in the spacecraft of their favorite sci-fi film.
Whether it's going up and down the street 100 times on a blue sky Saturday or cruising with the parents, pedaling like mad is an essential virtue of the single-digit years. We celebrate that here, with our kids version of the Competitive Cyclist T-shirt. It comes in four sizes, for kids aged 2 to 8+. It's made by American Apparel in soft 100% cotton, so they'll out-grow it before they'll wear it out.

I had a look to the API to build a web-service to Zimbra in order to display the number of unread mails and a short view of the calendars on a website by using a CMS.
The CMS know the login of the user but does not know the password.
Is there a way to do an authentication as a trusted application?
Otherwise, can we use the admin login/password to get these informations from any users?
Otherwise how to do it?

I am watching. Two Cyclone jerseys right up front but the blasted annoucners are only talking the leader and FSU FSU FSU FSU FSU. Oh, they just mentioned Betsy!

Are team results available yet?
I think I saw "unofficial" at 10th for us.

"@rlhaaland: @khaal53 Team results???" Looks like 10th.
Ouch. Had my hopes up for a team national championship. Oh well, Betsy really did her part!
Pollard congratulating our champion!
Well done ladies!
Great win by Betsy. Congratulations. We have an NCAA Champion. Wish the 3-4-5 runners could have had better days, but it is what it is. It will be nice to not have to hear about a certain Oregon runner, anymore. At least where cross country is concerned.
I AM SO PROUD TO BE AN IOWA STATE ALUM!!! I couldn't start to name all the Iowa State athletes, coaches, and administrators that are making a positive contribution to collegiate sports under the Iowa State banner. Living 15-20 miles outside of Ann Arbor makes it seem as if there is no other Universities in the world other than Michigan and whoever they are about to vanquish next. Recently the women and men of Iowa State have been punching holes in this wall of noise and are making their personal marks while wearing Cardinal and Gold on their chests or their hearts. I love it and I AM SO PROUD OF IOWA STATE ATHLETICS!!!
Will will win!
Does anyone know where I can find the results?
Congratulations to Betsy and the rest of the team!
Betsy ran an awesome race! Meaghan was with the lead pack for quite a while; the course didn't favor her (the Indiana course is better for her and maybe ISU in general), but she went for it anyway with a gutsy race. Congrats to both of them for stellar seasons. The rest of the team hit a big road bump, a learning experience for sure. Regardless, a superb season overall for women's xc.

ATLANTA-- Atlanta Police may have new clues in their investigation of a deadly early morning shooting outside a Midtown nightclub.
Rick Day, the owner of QUAD, has turned over surveillance video from area security cameras, still pictures and license plate numbers gathered from the time of the crime.
24-year-old Morrie Brooks of Peachtree City was shot and killed in a parking lot just south of the QUAD. It happened when the club closed around 4 a.m.
Day said Brooks and friends got into an argument with another group inside the club after a comment to a female.
"Both groups went outside where shouts and threats continued. Security cameras clearly show the perpetrator flashing gag sings and making gestures of hostility," said Day.
The club owner also turned over the names of potential suspects because the staff runs all patrons' IDs through a scanner to determine if they are real.

Map (Click to enlarge)
Created in: Flash/Photoshop
Redstar's map Fogdown is what I consider a classic 'old-school' map in a new digital world. It has all the elements you want in a map as well as being a work of art in its own right. A great color pallete that is subtle and pleasing to the eye. You can immediately see that a certain amount of detail went into every part of the map, from individual city buildings to the map title, from the water to the lighting effects. All of these aspects are what make this a map of the month.
Artist's Notes
The City of Fogdown is a floating city-state metropolis and a common and way point between several major cities along the Sword Coast. Its two arcane-clockwork lighthouses are lit day and night, and are a bitter-sweet site for the hundreds of merchant ships making their way through the fog-haunted area. The majority of the islands inhabitants share a common story of generations as rogues and thieves living in desperate tenements and slums in a rigid, class divided society. It is a place where corrupt merchant princes, deranged City Senators, mad cultists and cruel guildmasters all vie for wealth, influence and above all: power.
I started Fogdown as a homebrew campaign loosely based in Forgotten Realms over eight years ago during college. After a few years on hiatus, some old friends and I decided to make a return to the old campaign, this time with the help of the internet (thanks MapTools!). I took the opportunity to recreate the map in a digital format. If you're interested in reading more about the campaign, check out our wiki/blog: http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/fogdown
When I first started the map, I was going for more of an old school Greyhawk/Forgotten Realms style. As the map progressed, I decided to incorporate more semi-realistic features such as shadows, gradients, and textures. The result, I hope, takes a little of both: simple, clean basic mapping, with semi- realistic texturing and shading for depth. I drew the entire map free-style in Flash (to get clean vector shapes) which I then imported to Photoshop for coloring, layering, texturing, etc.

Hey everyone!
Maybe you guys or girls know the answer?
HSM is based on policies. Is it possible to create a policy that only implies to a specific account/email?
Full explenation with possible answer:
A copy of every mail is being sent to the "backup user" account with email address: email@example.com. Email is kept for 6 months.
If for some reason needed, we can search that account.
Now we use several HSM policies,
but I would like to add an aditional policy:
- account: firstname.lastname@example.com older than 5 days.
is following correct?
zmprov mcf +zimbraHSMPolicy 'message:before:-5day EMAIL_ADDR:firstname.lastname@example.com'
I could not find much about EMAIL_ADDR: and finding out what has been transfered? No idea how to find out.
the search querry cannot filter on account. The EMAIL_ADDR stated in the query.txt is to be filled in, but not an option on itself.
I solved it by creating a rule in the email@example.com account to forwardall incomming email to a folder "backup-456411383".
From thereon you can create an additional HSMpolicy to search in that folder:
zmprov mcf +zimbraHSMPolicy 'message:before:-5day in:zmprov mcf +zimbraHSMPolicy 'message:before:-5day EMAIL_ADDR:backup-456411383'

A headline stating that Mitt Romney was dropping out of the presidential race and endorsing Rick Santorum appeared at the top of Google News on Sunday. It was clearly false. How did this happen?
It starts with the bloggers posting on news sites. Len Burman blogs for the Forbes site as "The Impertinent Economist." Len is no joker. He is the Daniel Patrick Moynihan professor of public affairs at the Maxwell School of Syracuse University, and was a senior official in the Clinton Treasury Department. Until yesterday, his blog mostly focused on pointedly skewering much of the partisan tax debate with both fact and well considered opinion. (I also know this guy a little more than most of the bloggers out there, since he's my smartest cousin.)
Does Len Burman belong on the Forbes site? Sure. Serious news sites feature bloggers, and with this kind of pedigree, he's the kind of guy we want to hear from. He's not a reporter, but these are shades of grey.
On Sunday April 1, Len posted a piece on his Forbes blog called "Romney Drops Out of Race, Endorses Santorum." It's pretty funny -- it makes an entirely believable case that Romney took credit for the Massachusetts health care law he presided over, decided Santorum would lose anyway, and wanted to wait four years to have a better chance. Of course, it would never actually happen, which makes it just a clever April Fool's joke. It's amusing -- go ahead and read it.
Like many Web sites, Forbes doesn't police its bloggers ahead of time. So the piece went up on Sunday when Len posted it, and an email went out to everyone following his blog. Should Forbes police every post its bloggers put up? Shades of grey.
Should Forbes allow April Fools jokes on its site? A lot of sites do. They know we can tell the diference. Shades of grey again.
The post ended up at the top of Google news. Why? Google News is an algorithm. It knows there were lots of stories about Romney and Santorum so this must be important news. And it knows Forbes is a respected news site. So Forbes articles about Romney and Santorum go on Google news. For a short moment, my cousin was in the most coveted spot in the news business. (The screen shot you see here was taken by Gawker.)
Should Google News have shown this article? Good question. But how would you stop it? Should human editors vet stories on Google News? That undermines the whole algorithm. Should it censure Forbes for hosting bloggers? Most other news organizations would be banned, too. Should it learn to identify jokes? That's would a fun artificial intelligence project. A little more vigilance would be a good idea on April Fool's Day, perhaps. Shades of grey again.
Or maybe the story belongs there, and we should learn to tell the difference between news and satire. It's the headline, though, that many would read and perhaps even believe -- and the headline looks like news.
What happened next is instructive. Forbes yanked the blog post (Len tied to repost it, it disappeared again) and also yanked a subsequent post in which Len explained himself. Why yank it? There are a number of possible explanations, but in my opinion, it was Google News that got in the way. This satirical post would probably have stayed there, but I think Forbes didn't want to look bad on Google News. All those people clicking on the seductive title on Google News, Facebook, and everywhere else it was shared then got a broken link on Forbes' site.
But you can't get things off the Internet. Len's post lives on a blog he set up for it. And in a classic example of the Streisand Effect, yanking the post led to other stories about the joke and the reaction in the sites of the Washington Post's, the San Francisco Chronicle, the New York Daily News, and Mashable. Not only that, it became a trending topic on Twitter. The story lives on. Shades of grey indeed.
You can imagine ways that Forbes or Google could fix this. Or you could see this as part of a trend that ranges from Fox News to This American Life. There is no longer a way to restore the black and white distinction between truth and the mass of opinion on the Internet. We must all become skeptics. Especially on April Fool's Day.

Ron Burgundy Scoffs At 24-Hour News In New Anchorman 2 Clip
In this clip for Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues, Dylan Baker plays a pitchman trying to sign Ron to his wild news channel. Of course, Ron is initially dubious ("News going twenty-four hours around the clock? A channel that's never off in other words?...No offense, but you are stupid.") but a fat paycheck is enough for this anchorman with salon quality hair to give it a go.

Watch Will Ferrell Anchor A North Dakota Newscast As Ron Burgundy
Ferrell actually plays it straight, reporting on a fire at a neighborhood Sams Club and tossing it to a puff piece about holiday travel.

Ron Burgundy Getting A Journalism School Named After Him
When Ron Burgundy promised "I'm kind of a big deal" in the original Anchorman, he was being a pompous jackass.

Ron Burgundy Releasing Tell-All Memoir One Month Before Anchorman 2
After nearly a decade of being quoted endlessly by fans, Ron Burgundy's many bits of wisdom -- "Milk was a bad choice," "I'm kind of a big deal," etc.-- have become legend. The arrival of Anchorman: The Legend Continues this Christmas promises to give us more where that came from, but Ron Burgundy wouldn't be a classy newsman if he didn't know how to take advantage of an opportunity. So in November, a month before the Anchorman' sequel's debut, we'll see the arrival of Let Me Off at the Top!, a.k.a. Ron Burgundy's memoir.

Ron Burgundy Meets The 80s In Anchorman: The Legend Continues Trailer
When Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy was released in 2004 it became an almost instant cult phenomenon. That summer it was hard to find a regular movie-goer who couldn't quote all of the movie's best lines verbatim, and thanks to the staying power of Will Ferrell and Adam McKay's comedy it never got old. But while fans pleaded for a sequel, for years it seemed like an impossible dream.

text: Home Culture Hollywood's Black Movers and Shakers Very few folks have the power to green-light a picture in Hollywood. None of them are black. But these power players are finding a way to make films on their own terms. By: Nsenga K. Burton, Ph.D. Posted: May 31 2011 12:02 AM 0 Tracey Edmonds (Getty Images Entertainment) Blacks and film have been in the news quite a bit as of late. You've got the feud between Tyler Perry and Spike Lee, and the romantic comedy Jumping the Broom not only beating out mainstream romantic comedies but also coming in third behind monster hits Thor and Fast Five during opening weekend. One might wonder how a rom-com could become controversial, but Jumping the Broom did just that when CBS's The Early Show left the "movie that could" out of its summer preview of movies about weddings. Thor courted its share of controversy, with the filmmakers and Idris Elba -- who was cast as Heimdall, a Norse god -- being pummeled by right-wing zealots for "cross-casting." And the complexity of being black and Muslim was examined, finally, in Sultan Sharrief's Bilal's Stand and Qasim Basir's Mooz-lum. Can we say that Ava DuVernay is "winning," in our best Charlie Sheen voice, by using black film festivals to distribute her film I Will Follow? And did we mention that black and brown films took over Sundance this year, showcasing gems like Rashaad Ernesto Green's Gun Hill Road, Dee Rees' Pariah and Alrick Brown's Kinyarwanda, which explores Christianity and Islam against the backdrop of 1994 Rwanda? Sundance 2011 had no fewer than 30 black filmmakers and films, prompting journalist Julie Walker to wonder aloud, "Is Sundance Becoming Blackdance?" Can You Be Black and Green-Light a Film? By hook or by crook, black films are getting made, mostly outside the Hollywood film industry. It is pretty much common knowledge that it is nearly impossible for anyone to green-light a film in Hollywood except for a handful of folks. Can you say "Brian Grazer"? Being able to green-light a film means that one has the ability to concretely say, "This movie will be made." For all the folks thinking "Tyler Perry" right now, the fact remains that even he, with all of his power, isn't able to green-light a film at Lionsgate. Yes, he has a lot of control over his material, but ultimately it is an executive that gives the film the go-ahead. If you're confused, you should be. Green-lighting a film is a complicated process. What's even more complicated is that there are no black folks in Hollywood who can green-light a film, except possibly Broderick Johnson, who is a partner in Alcon Entertainment. Johnson recently extended his production deal with Warner Bros. You may not have heard of Johnson, but his films include the Academy Award-winning The Blind Side and, most recently, Something Borrowed. The moviegoing public often thinks that those who get the most mainstream press are the playmakers in Hollywood, when in fact, there are those, like Johnson, who go about the business of moving films forward with little to no fanfare outside of Hollywood. Meet a Black Hollywood Heavy Hitter Despite the uphill battle to get films made in Hollywood, black folks continue to face the challenge head on, choosing different paths and ultimately getting film projects to where they need to be so that they can make it to the big screen. We like to call the people who navigate the complicated and precarious Hollywood system to making-it-happen land "heavy hitters." Like The Root on Facebook. Follow us on Twitter. One such person is Tracey Edmonds, president and COO of Our Stories Films. The Stanford University graduate and Edmonds Entertainment founder is a 15-year veteran of film. Edmonds' 1997 film, Soul Food, brought the complexity of black families to the big screen. The success of that movie resulted in a television series of the same name for Showtime Networks. The series, which was on the air for five years, won several NAACP Image Awards. Most recently, Edmonds' film Jumping the Broom, a romantic comedy about the blending of two families with different class backgrounds during a wedding weekend, has grossed more than $25 million since it opened Mother's Day weekend. Edmonds, who grew up watching films and going to drive-ins with her close-knit family, believes that the biggest obstacle to getting films made in Hollywood is the shortage of outlets for "urban" (i.e., black) projects. "When I started out in the industry, we had a plethora of distribution options for urban films and an assortment of studios to choose from," Edmonds says. "Now we're pretty much limited to only two distributors, so it's very, very difficult. It's extremely competitive because you have all the filmmakers of color in the industry competing for only a couple of slots a year." (Unfortunately, the same can be said of television. Original programs featuring urban casts are primarily shown on BET and TBS.) Success Through Diversification -- and Networking All too often, blacks filmmakers find themselves confined to making black films, making it is nearly impossible for them to produce mainstream projects that make it to the big screen. Edmonds adds, "It's a shame that Hollywood expects African-American producers to only be able to produce African-American content, whereas white producers can make urban and nonurban projects. I don't think as producers we should limit ourselves to making urban projects. We enjoy watching mainstream films, so we should also be able to produce mainstream films." One way that Edmonds tackles the challenge of getting a film made in Hollywood is by diversifying her projects and maintaining a strong professional network. Producer Will Packer of Atlanta-based Rainforest Films echoes this sentiment. Like Edmonds, Packer has been able to get films made inside and outside the Hollywood film industry. Packer, who got his start with the cult film Trois (which grossed more than $1 million), has made the hits Stomp the Yard, This Christmas, Obsessed and, most recently, Takers. Packer -- who is currently working on Think Like a Man, an adaptation of Steve Harvey's mega-successful relationship book, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man -- says there is no sure-fire way to get a film made in Hollywood. "You make your own rules," he says. "Even with the success I've had, still with each step of the way, it looks like this particular film may not be able to go, and I have to push it over the hump." When Packer talks about pushing it over the hump, he means pulling out all the stops to help get it done -- including tapping into his sizable network. "You have to have relationships; you have to know how to sell it to talent, financiers and distributors; and you also have to keep the motor running as the producer." Key: Learning the Business Part of keeping the "motor running" is being thick-skinned -- and resilient enough to keep it moving, despite seemingly endless obstacles. Observes DeVon Franklin, vice president of production for Columbia Pictures, "I try to stay clear on what story I'm telling and why I'm telling it. Understanding from a business perspective which ideas are most commercial is also important, so I have to prioritize and make decisions about which projects to help push through the system." Franklin -- whose films include The Pursuit of Happyness, Hancock, the remake of The Karate Kid and Jumping the Broom -- is currently working on a remake of the film classic Sparkle. Decisive decision making is a skill that Edmonds and Packer also had to learn. Says Packer, "I had to learn the art of independent filmmaking, including raising money and getting distribution. I worked as a music supervisor before making a feature film, so I was constantly engaged in the process of learning and adapting, which helped me to figure out which film projects to make." For Packer, this was strictly a learn-as-you-go proposition. An electrical-engineering major at Florida A&M University, he had no experience in entertainment or film. "At the beginning, it was all about just getting the film Chocolate City made. We had no expertise," he says. "Then it was about making a film that could make money, which is what Trois represented for us," he continues. "Every film since then has been about honing our craft and telling a variety of stories that speak to our audiences and Hollywood." Packer is also taking what he has learned from film into television; he is co-owner of Bounce TV, a digital network launching this fall. Learning the craft of filmmaking cannot be undervalued, says Franklin, who refers to himself as a constant student of film. "I want to become a better studio executive, a better storyteller, so there are a lot of books that I read in order to stay sharp and fresh," says the University of Southern California graduate. The Rewards of Pleasing Your Audience Having a passion for film, building and maintaining a strong network of inspired and influential people, telling compelling stories and even tackling the challenge of getting a film made all keep executives inspired. But given all the obstacles, why do producers like Johnson, Debra Martin Chase (Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants) and a handful of others even bother to try and make Hollywood films? Franklin, who is also an ordained preacher and recently published the self-help book Produced by Faith: Enjoy Real Success Without Losing Your True Self, says that nothing compares to going to the movies and hearing audiences, laugh, cry and respond to a film in which you have invested every ounce of your being. "There's nothing better than when audiences really get [a film] the way that you intended for them to get it, and they connect to the story the way that you hope they would," he says. "That's why we do what we do." Edmonds, who planned to become a doctor before her life changed drastically after meeting and falling in love with Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, now her ex-husband, echoes that sentiment. "As a child, I loved films, but coming from a working-class family, it was expected that I would go to college and become a doctor or lawyer. "I was on that path until God and fate stepped in and put me on the course that I've been on for many years now," she adds. "I love making films and giving audiences quality programming that they deserve. It's truly a blessing." These heavy hitters have been at bat a long time, paving the way for others to follow.

That's pretty funny. Just this morning a guy that lets me hunt his property asked if caught any deers. It drives me crazy. He asks me the same thing every time I stop at the house.
haha the " caught" comment allways has bugged me to. it doesnt even sound right. or when some one says.... i seen 5 deers???? i dont know why but that sounds wierd too. elks deers. sounds better to me as elk, deer.
That's pretty funny. Just this morning a guy that lets me hunt his property asked if caught any deers. It drives me crazy. He asks me the same thing every time I stop at the house.
I always go cross-eyed when someone writes.... "I was stocking this buck".
"Stocking" is something a woman wears on her feet and legs.
"Stalking" is when a hunter sneaks up on an animal to "harvest" it.
how about people referring to elk as "stags"
I saw a stag when I was out west in Colorado... really? aren't stags in europe? haha.
or how about when people are clueless to what a deer is, vs. an elk, vs. a moose, vs a caribou...
I remember in college some girl at a party was like "oh oh look at the moose! on tv.... it was a caribou or elk... not a moose!
at least call it a reindeer... but don't call a caribou a moose or elk... lol.
or... i seen a herd of moose
This thread is awesome! I love it!!
A lot of people call pronghorn antelope "goats". And even their scientific name is antelocapra americana, not capra anything, so they are NOT goats. But I don't really get upset about that either.
And reindeer and caribou are the same sub species of deer, both are rangifer tarandus.
Of course the stag thing really isn't that big either. Red deer are cervus elaphus and American elk are cervus canadus. So that's not that much of a difference. As European moose (elch, Alg, elk, in the native language) are alces alces, and ours are alces shirasi, alces gigas, alces andersoni or alces americana.
Calling a elk a stag isn't taxanomically as wrong as calling a pronghorn a goat.
Either way I think it's kind of silly to get worked up over. Then again I hate the term harvest, with a passion so to each his own.
Ivory tip what do you call a herd of moose anyway? A flight? A bundle? A sack? A muster of moose?
haha, have you ever seen a herd of moose? a large grouop of moose just chilling? and geezedel, you hurt my brain with all of that biological crap. im a redneck here give me some slack
i belive they call it "yarding" not common to see large groups of moose together, however, i have seen a bachelor herd of 5 bulls together once and that was wierd.
I don't watch many huniting shows, simply because I don't think like many of them. One word that has made into the hunting world that I cannot stand is, "ATHLETE". Since when do you have to be an athelete to be a hunter?? When I was in high school all the "athletes" were at practice while I was out killing deer, now they all sit on their azz and watch football while I'm out hunting. You don't have to be an athlete to be an excellant hunter.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- I thought long and hard about the impending free agency of Nick Young, and I've come to the following conclusion: The Wizards should let Nick Young pretend he's an all-star shooting guard like Atlanta's Joe Johnson or Golden State's Monta Ellis and see how it pans out.
This strategy is so obvious, it almost sickens me that the Wizards aren't employing it yet. What's the worst that can happen? Nick Young fails miserably and the Wizards don't make a mistake in re-signing him.
As dreadful as the Wizards situation is here in DC, there's one positive. Because the team is so bad, the Wizards aren't expected to win games every night, meaning they can alter their offensive strategy in adopting Young as their "tryout big-time scoring guard" with relative ease.
What were the two best Wizards offensive performances this season? The OKC game and the Denver game, in which Young scored 24 and 25 points respectively. Young clearly can take over games, when he's given the proper chances. Getting the rock to Nick Young needs to be Randy Wittman's number one offensive strategy in the halfcourt.
It's time to stop wondering how good the 26-year-old Nick Young could be. Wizards fans don't want to see him excel in a Chicago Bulls uniform next season. I want to see what it looks like if Nick Young carries a serious load on his shoulders NOW. John Wall is the type of point guard that is going to need a near elite shooting guard to lean on. It would also be interesting to see how Wall would play not being the number one option too.
Contrary to popular belief, the Wizards problem all year has been almost exclusively on offense. Drafting a defensive specialist like Anthony Davis from Kentucky isn't the wisest move at this point for the Wizards. Unless the Wizards realize Young could become the answer to their offensive problems.
Giving Young a surefire 35 minutes a game and 17 shots may stunt the growth of Jordan Crawford, but that seems like a better option than committing to Young this offseason without truly ever letting him become the player he's capable of being.
The free agent guards in the 2012 offseason aren't filled with glamorous names. By giving this test run to Nick Young, Washington can further evaluate if he is necessary to the future of the organization.
The last time the Houston Rockets faced the Washington Wizards, John Wall had the best game of his entire career, scoring 38 points, eight assists and six rebounds in a 114-106 loss on January 16th.
The Rockets are 10-8 on the season and are somewhere in the middle stages of the rebuilding process. In a semi-surprising move, the Rockets declined their team option on Jordan Hill, Hasheem Thabeet, Johnny Flynn and Terrence Williams, meaning all will become unrestricted free agents following the season. The Rockets now have $42 million dollars in cap room and certainly would like to be a heavy hitter in free agency.
Here's the lowdown on what the Rockets have been up to since then:
Key matchup
JaVale McGee vs. Samuel Dalembert
McGee hasn't had a double-double since his career day (23 points, 18 boards) against the 76ers, seven games ago. There is little doubting the media firestorm following his off-the-backboard dunk against the Rockets is bothering the 24-year-old. McGee has seven single-digit scoring games this season, and four of those have come in the last six games.
The last time these two teams played it was Samuel Dalembert who unequivocally led the Rockets to victory with 20 points on 9-of-11 shooting. The "Haitian Sensation" has plucked 33 combined rebounds in his last two games. He's an efficient player on offense and possesses a high basketball-IQ.
If McGee can't limit Dalembert, the Wizards will have zero chance to top Houston on the road.
