South OKC metro notebook: Excitement increasing at Capitol Hill
Third-year head coach Jason Webster noticed a lot more excitement around Capitol Hill football than there was this time last year.
The Redskins will primarily be fueled by a pair of two-way players, tight end-defensive end Marcus Williams and wide receiver-cornerback Denny Do.
Look to running back-linebacker Travaughn Jones to receive a majority of the carries.
"We'll look to those three skill guys in as many different sets and different ways as we can," Webster said.
Newcastle coach Keith Bolles has been impressed with how his players have adjusted to an entirely new system.
The Racers have switched to a 4-3 defense and with new offensive coordinator Scott O'Hare have embraced the multiple spread formation.
"I think it's progressing real well," Bolles said. "The kids have really bought into to what we're doing and have shown a great growth in the last couple of months."
Newcastle went 4-7 last season, but played most of the season without quarterback Casey Freeman. Bolles said Freeman, now a junior, is healthy entering the season.
Pauls Valley is keyed on stopping the run with three returning starters on the defensive line under first-year coach Bill Green.
The Panthers return seniors Braedon Carter and Colten Wimberly along with junior Ty Jordan up front.
Carter recorded 31 tackles and three sacks last season. Wimberly, a three-year starter, had 26 tackles and two sacks last season.
Lead by senior running back Louden Johnson, Wayne will rely on its power running game offensively.
"Louden is a kid that people love to be around," said coach Brandon Sharp. "For as talented as he is, he's extremely humble. I think that helps our team with the younger guys looking up to him and enjoying being around him."
Johnson, who rushed for over 1,500 yards last season, will share the backfield with returning starter Nathan Breuhl at fullback. The tandem will be running behind an experienced offensive line, lead by seniors Caleb Osborne and Alex Cheatwood.
The Bulldogs are coming off an 11-2 season, and enter the season as the coaches' pick to finish second behind Wynnewood in District A-5.
"We know we have to get a lot better to be able to compete in our district," Sharp said. "But we feel good about it. We're looking forward to getting our there, and getting it going."
Dibble coach J.R. Conrad doesn't mince words when he talks about running back/linebacker Tazden Jevons, calling him the best player in school history.
Hard to argue his point, with Jevons coming off a season in which he rushed for over 2,000 yards and 33 touchdowns.
The 220-pound senior also anchors the defense at linebacker, while Braeden James picked off seven passes at free safety.
James, a junior, will be under center for Dibble, and Nick Hearon returns at fullback, where he pounded his way in for seven touchdowns last season.
This would be Jerry Wallis' 10th year as Bridge Creek's football coach.
Instead, after nine years watching from the sideline, Greg Wallis will take over the position for his father.
This is Greg Wallis' first head coaching gig. He was previously the Bobcats' defensive coordinator. Jerry Wallis is now the athletic director for Bridge Creek.
Yet the younger Wallis is definitely planning on implementing what he learned from his father into his new program.
"Hard work, perseverance, staying the course," Greg Wallis said. "He taught me there are no shortcuts to running a successful program."
* Noble must replace running back Jimmy Wood, one of the top backs in 5A last year, who led the Bears to a 5-5 season.
* Lexington coach Jeff Hall has high expectations for Jeron Hamm this season. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound receiver/defensive back has been a highly productive two-year starter who averaged 16 yards per touch last season.
*Jake Sheppard might only be a sophomore, but he'll be the focal point of the Little Axe offense this fall after starting as a freshman. The speedster qualified for the state track meet in the 200 meters last spring.
*Community Christian will lean heavily on 6-foot-3, 205-pound senior receiver Matt Borgerding in the passing game this season while sorting through a quarterback battle between junior JJ Cortez and sophomore Haddon McIntosh. Borgerding caught 22 passes for 381 yards and four TDs last season.

Unfortunately, it appears that success has come at a price as PlayJam has announced they have delayed delivery of the Gamestick until June. PlayJam opened their Kickstarter project in January with a goal of $100,000 to be able to start delivering devices in April. However, they ended up pulling in $650,000 via pledges from around 5,700 backers.

"All the changes we are making will help our students succeed," said President D. Merrill Ewert. "We are improving our access to entering students, our affordability for continuing students and the value of the degree our graduates receive."
The cost of traditional undergraduate tuition will rise 3.7 percent to $24,520 for 2011-2012. In 2009-2010 FPU was one of six universities nationwide that froze tuition. Other independent colleges have raised tuition an average of 4.5 percent, bringing the average to $27,293 for 2010-2011, and are expected to do the same for 2011-2012, according to Stephen Varvis, vice president of enrollment management at FPU. (Average hikes for public schools were 7.9 percent for 2010-2011 and 6.5 percent in 2009-2010.) "Right now we're 13.5 percent below average for private universities," he said.
At FPU, president's and dean's scholarships for new students will go up $1,000 each to $11,000 and $8,500, respectively. Faculty, founders and transfer awards ranging from $8,500 to $3,000 will increase $500 each. A new grant, the Transfer Partnership Award, was established at $1,500. The Mennonite Brethren guarantee package will rise $3,000 to $11,000. In addition, more funds will be available for student work-study positions.
"By keeping our focus on providing challenging academics that lead to ethical and professional development and supporting faculty who are mentors as well as experts, we make every dollar count," Varvis said.
Tuition for bachelor's degree completion programs will also go up 3.7 percent for 2011-2012, except for Christian ministries, which will increase 2.15 percent. For graduate students, teacher education and Global MBA rates will stay the same, while other programs will increase 1 percent.
FPU will also increase:
- Faculty—Professors will be added in business, both in degree completion and traditional undergraduate programs.
- Educational technology—The number of "smart" classrooms, incorporating computers, DVD and other media, will increase, as campus wireless connections. The Steven R. Brandt Research Learning Lab in Hiebert Library is also being expanded. The center features computers, wireless connections, podcasting equipment and study areas.
- Student services—Academic Support Center hours will be expanded. Campus security will be augmented to include the seminary campus.
It's all about keeping an FPU education an affordable investment. "We have the highest four-year graduation rate in the Valley, and our graduates are sought by businesses, school districts and top graduate schools. Our students represent this region's wonderful ethnic and cultural diversity and many are the first in their families to attend college," Varvis said. "Not only do they attend FPU, they graduate and succeed."

MJ butter sculpture: The backlash begins
We blogged last week on the Iowa State Fair's decision to commemorate Michael Jackson in butter this year. Apparently, the news didn't go over so well with everyone. "We've had a lot of feedback, mostly negative," the fair's general manager reportedly told AFP.
So they're putting it to a vote. AFP writes:
"[T]hose whose blood is curdling over the idea and those who think Jackson should feature in the refrigerated room in Iowa alongside an astronaut, an American flag, 'a buttery rendition of the surface of the moon' and this year's featured cow, a Jersey, can vote online at iowastatefair.org."
Meanwhile, protestors persist. Facebook has at least four groups against Jackson's buttery likeness, one of which is a petition -- with close to 1,000 "members" -- behind the idea of trading Jackson for a recently slain Iowa high school football coach.
You can vote until 3 p.m. this Thursday, July 16.

There is entertaining, and there is entertaining. I hosted a formal cocktail party this past weekend for over 40 of my friends, with my event proving to be the latter.

In keeping with a retro theme, I pulled out all of the stops, including a traditional Southern menu served in my mom's best silver. Here's a look at one of the hit recipes of the night — a cocktail meatball that needs no improvement.

My fiancé and I usually host some sort of holiday party each year, but usually it is more of an excuse to wear a tacky sweater and plastic reindeer antlers than to create a truly memorable affair.

Swisher Wants to Be Taken Seriously
Nick Swisher is tired of being known as just the Yankees' good-time guy.
The outfielder has one of the biggest personalities in pro sports, and he's milked that for television guest appearances, national ad campaigns and more than a million Twitter followers. But at a certain point, Swisher has begun to suspect that his personality has overshadowed his performance on the field.
"I've always been known as a great clubhouse guy, a fun guy. I want to be known as a great ballplayer," Swisher lamented.
"I've always had that rap of being a fun guy, having a good time. And I still have my fun on the field, but I don't just want to be just known for being that good guy in the locker room. I want to be known as a good guy in the locker room, and a bada-- on the field," Swisher said.
He may have a point. Over the past three years, only 11 players have averaged an OPS higher than .850 and played more than 450 games. Swisher is on that list, alongside Miguel Cabrera, Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder, Matt Kemp and other stars.
Yet few think of Swisher in that company, and he knows he's running out of time to change outside perceptions. After a generally down year in 2011, he rededicated himself to his offseason workouts. He showed up ripped, and said he's quicker, stronger, and faster than ever before—something manager Joe Girardi couldn't help but notice.
"He's all three of those—quicker, stronger, and faster. I think he gets around the bases better, I watch him in the outfield, I watched him play first base the other day—he's swung the bat well," Girardi said.
But the physical is only half the battle with the mercurial Swisher, known for getting overly amped up in big moments. He said he also worked on his personality, and on keeping a more even keel.
"I'm more of a focused, toned-down version of myself this year. I think everyone's noticed that," Swisher said. "It's something I've worked on. I want to keep getting better, and I think in my mind, that's one thing that's holding me back from reaching the next level."
He has enough distractions to worry about, being in the final season of the six-year, $37-million deal he signed when still with Oakland in 2007. He desperately wants to be back with the Yankees, where he is an integral part of the team, and his personality (and his television star wife, JoAnna Garcia) can play to the media and marketing worlds.
But the Yankees are in cost-cutting mode, and two weeks ago, Hal Steinbrenner said the team wants to get younger and cheaper. With Curtis Granderson and Robinson Cano in line ahead of him for contract extensions, that doesn't bode well for the 31-year-old Swisher.
"If it was up to me, and I could write a script, I'd be here for the rest of my career. But that's not how the game works," Swisher shrugged.
He refuses to say how big a contract he's looking for—but says he's confident he'll get a good deal somewhere.
"You'll never hear me give a number. You'll never hear me give years. I've got a great life, I've done well for myself, and look, if I keep playing the way I am, I'm going to be somewhere for a good amount of time. I want it to be here, but you never know how that's going to work out," Swisher said.
So he is investing himself in spring training like never before, trying to treat each at-bat like it's the regular season, and actually trying to improve, rather than simply maintain.
In the end, it may not matter. Swisher could be a casualty of Yankee market dynamics. But a calmer, quieter Swisher is doing everything he can to make that decision as hard as possible on his employers.
"I think everyone knows how much I love being here, and how much I want to be part of this organization. And at the end of this season we'll figure out how it works out," Swisher said.

I'm curious what the plot is. What does OKNYTT stand for? How are you gonna do the game? Also this is awesome. =u=
Oknytt is the Swedish word for (usually bad) creatures from folklore, such as trolls, elfs, fairies, wights, the huldra etc. You play as Jesper who is a troll changeling (meaning his troll parents switched him with a human child so he has grown up with humans) and you basically run around in the city interacting with other changelings or magical creatures dwelling in the same town. Depending on what you decide to do you get different tasks and endings. It's a quite modern setting but based on old folklore. c:
i'm already so in love with both of these characters

Unlike most of the other nearby CGs (which are between the highway and the train tracks), this is quiet and peaceful. It can get very windy, though. Sites 6-8 good for big rigs. Price reflects out-of-state residency and reservation fee. Be sure to check out the pictographs. - TheRollingJones
Sep 2009 - $25.00
Park has fairly level, gravel sites. Big rigs use site 7 or 8 for easy backing. Self pay at the kiosk in the campground. Has beautiful views of the mountains and river/lake. It's close to City of the Dalles, Oregon. There's no shower facilities and a port-a-potty for bathrooms. - Merryann
Aug 2009 - $26.00
Horse Thief Lake is a pleasant but modest state campground near the edge of the Columbia River. Campsites are gravel and the spaces are adequate. Water and electric are available at the premium sites. As it sits in the Columbia River gorge in an area popular with wind surfers you're likely to have windy days and breezy nights. We think $26.00 per night rate is high for what you get. We likely would not stay here again, primarily because the cost is not competitive with other campgrounds in the area. - happyflyer

Mark Twain and Male Friendship The Twichell, Howells, and Rogers Friendships

Biographies of America's greatest humorist abound, but none have charted the overall influence of the key male friendships that profoundly informed his life and work. Combining biography, literary history, and gender studies,Mark Twain and Male Friendshippresents a welcome new perspective as it examines three vastly different friendships and the stamp they left on Samuel Clemens's life. With accessible prose informed by impressive research, the study provides an illuminating history of the friendships it explores, and the personal and cultural dynamic of the relationships. In the case of Twain and his pastor, Joseph Twichell, emphasis is put on the latter's role as mentor and spiritual advisor and on Twain's own waning sense of religious belonging. Messent then shifts gears to consider Twain's friendship with fellow author and collaborator William Dean Howells. Fascinating in its own right, this relationship also serves as a prism through which to view the literary marketplace of nineteenth-century America. A third, seemingly unlikely friendship between Twain and Standard Oil executive H.H. Rogers focuses on Twain's attitude toward business and shows how Rogers and his wife served as a surrogate family for the novelist after the death of his own wife. As he charts these relationships, Messent uses existing work on male friendship, gender roles, and cultural change as a framework in which to situate altered conceptions of masculinity and of men's roles, not just in marriage but in the larger social networks of their time. In sum,Mark Twain andMale Friendshipis not only a valuable new resource on the great novelist but also a lively cultural history of male friendship in nineteenth-century America.

Legislators agree to Apollo plan; new conditions in the deal
Legislator Kathy LaBuda said she agreed with Dollard and the others about the non-for-profit, but said, "I have to tell you, in the big picture, I couldn't let that be the deal-breaker, I'm not going to stop the project from going forward because of that little piece." She added, "As a legislator who represents the entire county, it's not about one business or one group, but it's about the entire county, and that facility will bring us sale tax money that we lack."
To address lawmakers concerns about the matter, however, an amendment was added to the resolution saying that any nonprofit that becomes part of the deal will have to sign a community benefits agreement, which according to Edwards, "holds organizations accountable for pubic subsidies received in the form of government grants and tax exemptions or other concessions."
The process of addressing some concerns took a few months and was the cause of frustration for some of the people involved, but in the end was beneficial according to legislator Alan Sorenson. He said "This was a very good example of how people on the legislature, who all come with different skill sets, had the opportunity to contribute to the process, and I do think that the final agreement is much better as a result of that."
Reading about agreements
Reading about agreements being reached is always good news. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out and how these changes will affect the surrounding community in the future.

I think Weiland is going to be a better pitcher than Buchtolz within the next two years. Right now Weiland is pitching his second year in the major league level, and he just need to continue pitching to keep building up his confidence. That is what most young pitchers do for a small market team like Tampa, Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Detriot, etc. They keep letting these young pitchers to keep pitching until they finally give up on him and send him down to minor league.
Plus Wakefield is going to be whispering around the clubhouse saying "I want to break the freakin Roger Clemens record"!!! That is bad cancer to the club!!!
He is gone!! he had a chance to break Roger's record three years ago, then two years ago, one year ago and this year. Still he couldnt do it!!

U.S. vaccination programs appear to have become a victim of their own success. Because many parents have never experienced the effects of childhood diseases such as mumps or measles — let alone polio — they don't always appreciate the health risks the diseases pose and the continuing need for vaccinations.
By the time children are 2 years old, they are recommended to have 10 different vaccinations to protect them from diseases such as chicken pox, polio, mumps and flu. But some parents who can't afford vaccinations for their infants or are concerned about possible side effects from the shots are choosing not to have them vaccinated.
In Johnson County in 2011, one study showed that nearly 30 percent of infants were not vaccinated for diseases, such as hepatitis A or the measles, according to data from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
A separate study by Johnson Memorial Hospital, based on data from the Children and Hoosiers Immunization Registry Program, showed an infant immunization rate in the county of 42 percent, seven points below the state average. The low immunization rate was identified as one of the top health issues in the county by Johnson Memorial Hospital's community health needs assessment.
While most vaccinations prevent diseases that have been eradicated from the U.S., getting them for children — whose immune systems are weaker than adults' — is important because some illness, such as polio, are just a plane ride away, Vaccinate Indiana executive director Lisa Robertson said.
In today's mobile, global business environment, it's highly likely that a person will regularly come in contact with someone who has traveled overseas. Some of those areas could be centers where a disease is more common, and an unvaccinated person could bring it back home.
Some parents are concerned about possible side effects from vaccines and decide not to have their children immunized. But not vaccinating infants is dangerous not just for the health of the child but for the community. If a child who hasn't been immunized is exposed to a disease and then comes in contact with someone whose immune system is weak, such as an elderly person, the child could spread the disease to that person as well.
In order to protect the child and the wider community,
it is vital that parents vaccinate their children. Just
because the parents have never known someone with polio, for example, doesn't mean they should leave their children unprotected.

Health and Well-being is our birthright and yet when we lose it, we often don't know why or how to get it back. In many cases, illness begins slowly, as it gradually and silently takes away our joy, energy, concentration, and cognition.
This leaves us suffering with anxiety, pain, depression, fatigue, confusion and, frequently, the inability to concentrate and perform even simple daily tasks.
Disorders such as: ADHD/ADD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Anxiety, Depression and other Mood Disorders are often misdiagnosed and treated with drugs that frequently produce side effects more dangers than the original symptoms.
Same goes for People suffering from: Parkinsonism and Parkinson's Disease (PD). Lack of access to solid research based information leaves them dependent on the marginal results and side effects of prescription drugs and/or Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) which comes with its own risks and complications.
There is a long, well documented, history of a successful use of Amino Acids for alleviating symptoms of ADHD, Autism, Depression, Anxiety and other issues related to brain chemistry imbalances.
Use of Amino Acids for Parkinson's Disease is not a new therapy! It is a nutritional improvement in effectiveness and side effects management of the most effective therapy available, L-dopa."
Amino Acids are powerful alternative to pharmaceutical drugs.
The Amino Acids program that we have been successfully implementing for over 16 years is FDA compliant, straightforward medical science. Developed by medical doctors and scientists, and clinically proven to be effective for alleviating symptoms of brain chemistry imbalances.
By using personalized protocols of Amino Acids, in form of nutrients, we get results without the side effects of pharmaceutical drugs.

EDMONTON - The removal of Fort McMurray MLA Guy Boutilier from the provincial cabinet was met with shock and disappointment in the northern boomtown Wednesday, with one business leader saying he felt "duped" by Premier Ed Stelmach.
Considering the vital importance of the oilsands to the Alberta economy, it doesn't make sense to exclude the region's elected representative from the government's inner circle, said Dan Sorensen, chairman of the Community Futures Wood Buffalo business development agency in Fort McMurray.
"This does feel a little like the mat has been pulled out from under us," he said. "It's a bit of a slap that we don't have somebody representing us in a ministry position."
Sorensen said Fort McMurray residents voted for the Conservatives last week, in part because there was no indication from Stelmach that he would end Boutilier's participation in cabinet. He said the premier should have been upfront with voters that he was contemplating such a move.
"Ed did take time to come up during the campaign and visit with our community, and it seemed like he was in support of Guy," Sorensen said.
"That's the reason I feel duped. It seems a little unfair that people might have put their vote down for Ed, but then we end up not getting the (cabinet position) that was assumed. Had we known, it may have changed who we supported."
Boutilier, who has served in three different posts -- municipal affairs, environment and intergovernmental affairs -- was the only cabinet minister not invited back to the table for Stelmach's second term.
Even though the premier decided to increase his stable of ministers, there was still no room for the Fort McMurray representative, said Paul Stanway, the premier's director of communications.
"You can't please everybody. I don't think there was a specific reason," Stanway said, adding that northern residents shouldn't take the move personally.
"It's not as if we're not going to pay attention to Fort McMurray. It's going to loom very large over the next several years."
The mood was glum Wednesday among Boutilier's office staff, but he put on a brave face in an interview.
"I only share my personal feelings with my family and my 10-month-old son," he said over the phone. "It's been an honour to serve ... I'm very proud of my work in the three ministries."
Fort McMurray business leaders suggested the government owes them an explanation for their MLA's ouster.
"The announcement came as a complete surprise. We couldn't believe it," said Jack Bonville, president of the Fort McMurray Chamber of Commerce.
"This place is the economic driver of the province and maybe the country, so to not be represented in cabinet is very surprising."
He said residents may start to wonder if the city's lack of cabinet representation will make it harder to secure necessary funding for important infrastructure, such as housing and roads.
"I only hope that Guy will continue to keep things on the table for us, but I'm sure it's taken the wind out of the sails a bit," added Sorensen.

Among those that will stir up ire among cinephiles are plans for NBC to produce a 4-hour miniseries of "Rosemary's Baby," based on the novel by Ira Levin. Of course, Roman Polanski directed the 1968 adaptation starring Mia Farrow, which is still considered one of the greatest horror movies of all time. Not many details were available as to the creative talent behind this reboot, though it's been promised that it will be an "edge-of-your-seat thriller" with the setting switched from Manhattan to Paris. Maybe there's more Satanists there? Either way, good luck...
Meanwhile, the network also wants to get in on the action with Stephen King, particularly with rivals CBS doing well this summer with "Under The Dome." And so, NBC will dust off "The Tommyknockers" for a brand new mini-series, even though ABC did one 20 years ago (though it was pretty crap by all accounts), in a version starring Jimmy Smits, Marg Helgenberger, and Traci Lords. No word yet who NBC will get to star in their account of the residents of Haven, Maine who discover a flying saucer buried in their town, which leads to everyday objects coming to life and killing many of them (yes, really), but Yves Simoneau ("Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee") will direct.
Well, "Rosemary's Baby" aside, we will say this about NBC— they're getting ambitious. Between all these projects and next year's Alfonso Cuarón/J.J. Abrams joint "Believe" (watch the trailer here), they have an interesting slate brewing, one that could possibly see the network rise back to primetime glory. [Inquisitr/EW]

Sotomayor: why can't we just admit diversity is a good thing?
As Washington gears up for its standard three ring circus that is a Supreme Court confirmation hearing, there is one subject that will no doubt come up, but will also, no doubt, be tip-toed around in the name of PC politics: is Sotomayor going to rule on issues differently because she is a woman, and a Latina woman?
The most cutting edge research suggests that she will indeed operate differently on both of those things, but that that fact may well be a good thing. In the Washington Post this weekend we wrote an op-ed about much of this research, that suggests, among other things, that having more women in the senior ranks of corporations is good for profits, and the economy. Precisely because women bring something different to the table–a different perspective and a different management style. We tend to build consensus instead of competing, and tend toward caution, instead of risk. But there is one bit of research that I find particularly compelling. An economist at the University of Michigan has come up with a mathematical model, something he calls a diversity theorem. He's used it to study corporate decision making, and especially complicated corporate decision making. What he's found is that the diverse group, when given a tough decision to make, always reaches a better conclusion. Even if the homogeneous group happens to be "better qualified," the diverse group makes a better judgment.
That got me thinking about the mix on the Supreme Court. Can we extrapolate? Isn't it therefore arguable that diversity will benefit that group as well? Moreover, won't the different management and judicial style that Sotomayor might bring also be helpful in moving decisions along toward more broadly-supported rulings?
It struck me as odd, during uproar about wise Latina comments, (which were overstated on her part, I admit,) that suddenly we all had to retreat to the standard notion that good judges do everything in exactly the same way. Of course that is nonsense. But maybe politics just isn't ready yet for the revolutionary thought that differences exist–and, in fact, can be beneficial?

It begins with the skip tracer collecting as much information as possible about the 'subject' who has to be traced down to his/her current inhabitation. The information that has been made available with the government agencies and family members is analyzed, reduced and then verified for its credibility.
CCTV technology has an integral role to pay in securing general welfare. The question for policy makers is how can we better integrate CCTV into national security policies without losing the individual's rights to privacy, determining who should have access to the footage and how long it can be kept on file for. This is a discussion which is only beginning and which merits serious discussion at all levels of society.

Please accept that i want her History to be mysterious...
Name: Sakura Miyuki Kimura
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Job: White Mage
Side: Rosadia
This is the face under her white hood, her face can't be seen. She wears a short white ninja dress with white pants under it, she also wears high white sock with ninja shoes, alot people expect her to be a ninja while she's actually a white mage.
Personality: Sakura is a very myserious girl. Since she always wears her hood no one really knows her age. Though everyone thinks of her as an adult. Sakura is very charming but also hard to get, it takes a while before she starts to like someone, however this only happened once. She won't tell with who and why though, she won't tell anything about her past.
History: there's not much known about Sakura's past. No one knows why she wears a hood all day and even at night. Some are telling stories about her though. They say that she's a girl born in a poor family and her parents selled her for money, some say that she's raised by wolves, because her company is kiba, the white wolf. There are many stories, but no one knows which one is true, or the real story.
Sakura has a company, a white wolf called Kiba, weird enough she can understand him and talk to him. The white wolf is always by her side. Some villagers are scared for him while kids like to pat him. However, Kiba never really pays attention to what people say about him are react on him.

Nintendo's Wii consoles, with its unique motion-sensing controller and simpler games, can now be found in select Marriott and Westin Hotels and on board many cruise liners with games like "Wii Sports" and "Endless Ocean" part of daily itineraries.
"We always have had PlayStations aboard our ships but we've upgraded recently to Wiis and integrated them throughout our ships for kids, teenagers and adults to play," said Jim Urry, vice president of entertainment for Disney Cruise Line.
Urry said next year, Disney will introduce a new videogame experience to passengers using motion-sensor technology designed by Walt Disney Imagineering (WDI).
A "Pirates of the Caribbean" game, which can be played by large groups on the ship's deck, lets players steer a course for Captain Jack Sparrow's ship by leaning in different directions.
The virtual characters and ship will be displayed on a giant outdoor screen used by the cruise line for some Wii tournaments.

Several years ago I was lucky enough to visit Hangzhou, one of the most beautiful cities in China, home of the legendary West Lake, and a place I've been wanting to revisit ever since. So you can understand how excited I was to discover Amanfayun, a new Áman resort on the outskirts of the ancient city. In the spirit of a traditional Chinese village, the resort boasts 47 dwellings with stone floors, camphor-wood walls, and clay-tiled roofs. With breathtaking views of thirteenth-century bodhisattvas and Buddhas carved into the nearby cliff, Amanfayun seems like the perfect place to appreciate the serenity of what Marco Polo once described as "the city of heaven."
The Romantic
Australian brand We Are Handsome is dipping into floral for the first time in their fifth collection, which is appropriately titled The Romantic. My favorite is the Secret Garden suit, splashed with blooming wildflowers and sassily dotted with tiny puppy heads throughout. The pets pictured on the prints actually belong to the staff of We Are Handsome, which makes their designs so darn likable and charming. I can't wait until the collection hits stores next month as I've been searching for a one piece that doesn't remind me of something my mother could own.
DIY Sugar Lip Scrub
This week we're turning to our friend and beauty expert Sarah Howard, of Beauty Banter, who is indulging us with her delectable brown sugar lip scrub tutorial. Inspired by one of her favorite lip polishes, Sarah recently discovered how simple it was to make her own organic version at home. The timing couldn't be more ideal as winter's typically unforgiving weather has us yearning for soft and smooth lips! (PS Be sure to head over to Beauty Banter for our favorite beauty products & tips!)

DSquared² Pre-Fall 2012
DSquared2's pre-fall collection is all about combining preppy refinement with rebellious fun. The brilliant twin designers, Dean and Dan Caten, take us back to the swinging 60s where cropped cigarette pants, argyle cardigans, body hugging dresses, pencil skirts, tweed miniskirts, velvet tuxedo jackets, and incredible beehives were aplenty. I'm loving the masculine ensembles just as much as the polished ones and inspired to start cranking out bow ties!
Malibu Wearstler
Not your average beach house, Kelly Wearstler's Malibu getaway is the epitome of sophisticated glamour. The subdued color palette, myriad of textures, vintage furniture, organic sculptures, and textural details just go to show that not a single facet was overlooked by the über talented designer. I've officially added an enormous nautilus sculpture and a chic metal kaleidoscope to my dream-home wish list.

Suffolk County police warned that they will begin enforcing a curfew from dusk to dawn south of Montauk Highway in Babylon village, Lindenhurst and Copiague–three communities badly ravaged by Hurricane Sandy.
Police announced the curfew shortly before sundown Friday and threatened to arrest drivers and pedestrians who violate the rule. First Precinct officers will be patrolling the South Shore areas.

The City of Long Beach, which saw some of the worst damage from Sandy, also has been under a 7 p.m. nightly curfew since the storm surge knocked out power, water and sewage to the barrier island community.
