Those who've been stuck on the road in the middle of a slow-moving commute probably have wished they could give the highway a piece of their mind.
Thanks to the Twitter phenomenon, now the reverse it true: Roadways are updating the public in real time.
Some state and local transportation departments are launching Twitter accounts not just for the main agency, but also for individual roads and construction projects. While some might argue this is overkill, the agencies see this granular approach to Twitter as a no-lose proposition: It's another way to disseminate traffic updates on a free and popular platform.
But some auto safety experts wonder if they're sending a mixed message about distracted driving.
On Tuesday, the Utah Department of Transportation launched a Twitter account @SR92UDOT for State Route 92, which is being widened beginning this month. Scott Thompson, spokesman for the transportation department's third region, said it's not something the department will necessarily do for every road construction project.

Delicious cookies that can help increase your milk supply
What? I can eat delicious cookies and increase my milk supply at the same time?
"100 percent of the moms called in with positive results in less than a week. Most of the moms were only eating 1 cookie per day. All of the moms were pumping at least once during the day so they could actually see measurable results."
Renee Beebe, M.Ed., IBCLC
"As a dietitian, I am fully supportive of the concept that women and moms can, and should, enjoy eating. So, the fact that Milkmakers is a cookie simply shows women that tasty food, that has sugars and fats, can be nutritious and used in the body for good purpose."
Julie, Registered Dietitian
"The cookies are fantastically delicious. I do think they make a positive difference in my supply. Thank you for great advertising in Parenting magazine, otherwise I'm not sure I would have heard of them."
"Tasty and effective! Milkmakers helped boost my milk supply for pumping when I went back to work. After 6 months of exclusively breastfeeding, it became a point of pride that my son had never had a drop of formula…much thanks to Milkmakers!!"
Commenter on dailycandy.com
"Milkmakers make a welcome and generous gift for nursing moms. They do just what they say they will do – MAKE MILK! And they are beyond delicious."
Francesca, commenter on dailycandy.com
"I had troubles with both my daughters in nursing…I tried medication but that option came with bad side-effects so I was so grateful for a natural way to boost my milk supply."
Kara, commenter on dailycandy.com
What's in Milkmakers cookies and why do they work?
Oats, Brewer's Yeast, and Flax Seed are baked into every Milkmakers Lactation Cookie. These are traditional remedies used to help increase breast milk production.
Oats are eaten by nursing moms worldwide to boost breast milk supply. They are a nutritional powerhouse, providing plenty of whole grains, fiber, iron, and an abundance of healthy vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Brewer's yeast is a traditional remedy used to stimulate and increase the production of breast milk. It is a rich source of the B-vitamins and amino acids essential for nursing moms and their babies.
Flax seed provides an abundance of omega-3 fatty acids necessary for brain development. It can be passed from mother to baby through breast milk.
A Custom Blend of Vitamins and Minerals that mom needs now are added to every cookie.
Seriously Delicious and Nutritious. We pride ourselves on using only premium, all-natural, mostly-organic ingredients – to provide the best for you and your baby. No added preservatives. Three delicious flavors: semi-sweet chocolate, zesty lemon, or plump raisins add the perfect touch of sweetness to every bite.
Convenient. Cookies come individually wrapped in Grab and Go Bakery Boxes or stacked into bags of ten. Quick and Easy Cookie Mixes are also available.
Great For Mom, Good for the Entire Family. Milkmakers Cookies can help moms with their milk production. But, don't worry dads, if you aren't nursing, you can eat them, too.
GO MOM. Milkmakers is committed to helping mom meet her breastfeeding goals.

I've attached the sketch I made for (1)Ceres -- low power (50x to 70x) was sufficient for viewing.
Both asteriods are in the general vicinity east and southeast of Jupiter (Sky & Telescope Dec'12, p50, has a decent finder chart). Ceres is above (N) and between 1 Gem and 3 Gem, moving NW, and it doesn't seem to be very bright (~8th magnitude), but it should brighten over the next few weeks as it reaches opposition (ditto with Vesta). Vesta is WNW of 111 Tau, moving W, and is a little brighter than Ceres (~7th magnitude). I was able to view these objects even with a bright >90% moon, so give it a try in your Questar and post your results and/or tips for others.

john: why do poeple do graffiti
DSK1: 8th Nov 2005 - 20:51 GMT
thats the dumbest question i've ever heard, john. why do people do walk down the street? why do people do the breaking wind? why do people do the wearing of socks under their shoes? sometimes people just do stuff. what you should do is think about how dumb your question is and how its impossibly pointless to try to answer why people tag their names on things. grumble
Catherine Penfold-Waxman: 8th Nov 2005 - 21:23 GMT
I'd just like to point out that my weird out-of-context posting was in reply to someone ranting about graffiti being the work of satan, which has since been expunged.
My feeling is that graffiti is the very definition of what it is to be human, the desire to express yourself, to leave a mark, to tell the world what you're about, to have unity with other people in your tribe, to rebel against the norm, to have freedom of will.

Concerned citizens of New Mexico: 12th Jan 2007 - 15:40 GMT
No one is saying that there can't be freedom of expression. But when someone tags on other people's property that just isn't right. If most of the people on this blog consider themselves graffiti artists, then do it in a more positive way. Like free walls or on canvas and make some money off of the talent. Because as far as I know all the unauthorized graffiti is not paying any green. You can hate on me all you want but until taggers own something of value and then have someone tag the shit out of it, only until then will taggers understand. Bottom line taggers need to grow up and be artists in a positive way!
Marty Chavez hates Children: 19th Jan 2007 - 06:15 GMT
First of all, who are the "Concerned citizens of New Mexico" to say Graff Artists don't own anything of Value? Moving on, tagging, is a totally different thing than most of the art above, which all required in-depth knowledge of depth perception, color-coordination, and lines of site, "Tagging" is a quick scrawl by an artist, often compared to asian calligraphy saying "I was here! I exist, I have style, I'm not happy with the current social state, and I am willing to risk being arrested/injured/sleepy tomorrow to show that I have a soul". What people like Marty Chavez and the "Concerned Citizens of New Mexico" seem to not realize is that graffiti has been ever-present on the walls of people as long as human minds have wanted to be remembered. Cave paintings-->"Graffito"(Roman citizens editorial of life in their state)-->Graffiti evolution and enlightenment in New York Subways--> graffiti today. If you want to stop graffiti, you have two alternatives,

What gives you the right to "express" yourself on a building or wall that I own? Is it okay with you if I paint your house or your car?
Pissed off tax paying citizen: 30th Jan 2007 - 21:42 GMT
I totally agree with the previous statement, so far no "taggers" have been able to justify that. How about they somehow buy a house and let all their little homies tag it! Then it would be authorized, oh wait a minute but then that would defeat the rush that they get by tagging illegaly. So that probably wouldn't work, because I think it would snow if they did something positive.
me: 5th Feb 2007 - 03:10 GMT
First off, let me start by saying: not everyone who (as pissed off tax paying citizen said) "tags", is a "homie". That is a poor stereotype. The artists that offer up their beautiful artwork for the world to view, can be called nothing short of inspirational if the work is tactfully done. Granted just scribbling initials somewhere is not "artwork", there are a lot of peices that are worthy of pulling over to the side of the road and admiring. Sure the artwork they put up is done without permission, but I would like to reitterate what a previous poster said and comment on if this artwork were hanging up in some gallery, the masses that pass by it everyday would not have the opportunity to gaze in awe at the constructive use of color, the complex lettering and the skill of the artists at their best. Get a better eye for expression and art. Stifle the artist, spoil the spontinaity. Go fill out a crossword and retire or something.
oneUnit: 9th Feb 2007 - 18:33 GMT
I just saw the acme yard for the first time the other day, every city needs a place like this, people are going to do graffiti, give them a spot (or 2 or 3) and illegal graff will diminish, not totally, but...

Nicolas: 15th Apr 2007 - 03:07 GMT
I am from Montreal, Quebec.
I am not a tagger, but I like graffiti. In my opinion, there's...let's say a "way" to do it. I totally agree with the fact that graffiti is an art. Those at the beginning of the page are MARVELOUS, honest! What I dislike is vandalism. The boundary can be thin, but it's still two different things.
Let's take a look at public transit services. Montreal's subway trains are going to be replaced by 2011. There's a rumor saying that the new cars are gonna be designed so people can do graffiti ON them, like NYC in the 80's. Graf artists could draw and write at will on these surfaces. The true artists, the talented, like you guys, would have a place to freely express your ideas, your magnificent capacities. I'm personnaly very excited, because I love and respect art in all of its forms.
Don't forget that you request a place in society, wich is a perfectly normal thing. But respect others as well.

THIS IS A REVOLUTION!!!!: 5th May 2008 - 18:16 GMT
Well to everyone that feels that this id defacing property, it is. It is also a statement it is freedom of speech, it is speaking out about injustices expressing your right. Would you feel so much anger against say, the Boston Tea Party, of course not but how is this any different. If you hide your voice about what you feel strongly enough about that would risk so much as these artists than you are just as much at fault as those bombing your neighborhood. This is a revolution, this is not for nothing, this is a statement. Keep up the representing of Albuquerque. I've lived here my whole my life there is room for change stand up and speak out be the difference. Feel free to express yourself by any means at any cost this is a revolution!
Yet ANOTHER New Jack (not the ones above): 5th May 2008 - 20:39 GMT

"Risky Business" is a movie about male adolescent guilt. In other words, it's a comedy. It's funny because it deals with subjects that are so touchy, so fraught with emotional pain, that unless we laugh there's hardly any way we can deal with them -- especially if we are now, or ever were, a teenage boy.
The teenager in the movie is named Joel. His family lives in a suburb on Chicago's North Shore. It's the sort of family that has three cars: the family station wagon, Mom's car, and Dad's Porsche. As the movie opens, Mom and Dad are going off on vacation to a sun-drenched consumer paradise and their only son, Joel, is being left alone at home. It's a busy time in Joel's life. He's got college board exams, an interview with a Princeton admissions officer, and finals at high school.
It gets to be an even busier time after his parents leave. Joel gets involved in an ascending pyramid of trouble. He calls a number in one of those sex-contact magazines and meets a young hooker who moves into the house. He runs afoul of the girl's pimp. His mother's expensive Steuben egg is stolen. His dad's Porsche ends up in Lake Michigan. The family home turns into a brothel. He blows two finals. And so on.
This description may make "Risky Business" sound like a predictable sitcom. It is not. It is one of the smartest, funniest, most perceptive satires in a long time. It not only invites comparison with "The Graduate," it earns it. Here is a great comedy about teenage sex.
The very best thing about the movie is its dialogue. Paul Brickman, who wrote and directed, has an ear so good that he knows what to leave out. This is one of those movies where a few words or a single line says everything that needs to be said, implies everything that needs to be implied, and gets a laugh. When the hooker tells the kid, "Oh, Joel, go to school. Learn something," the precise inflection of those words defines their relationship for the next three scenes.
The next best thing about the movie is the casting. Rebecca De Mornay somehow manages to take that thankless role, the hooker with a heart of gold, and turn it into a very specific character. She isn't all good and she isn't all clichés: She's a very complicated young woman with quirks and insecurities and a wayward ability to love. I became quietly astounded when I realized that this movie was going to create an original, interesting relationship involving a teenager and a hooker. The teenage kid, in what will be called the Dustin Hoffman role, is played by Tom Cruise, who also knows how to imply a whole world by what he won't say, can't feel, and doesn't understand.
This is a movie of new faces and inspired insights and genuine laughs. It's hard to make a good movie and harder to make a good comedy and almost impossible to make a satire of such popular but mysterious obsessions as guilt, greed, lust, and secrecy. This movie knows what goes on behind the closed bathroom doors of the American dream.

A book for young readers. It involves new kids, bullies, alligators, eco-warriors, pancakes, and pint-sized owls. A hilarious
Floridian adventure!
About the Author
Carl Hiaasen (b. 1953) is the "New York Times "bestselling and award-winning author of more than twenty adult and young adult novels and nonfiction titles, including the novels "Strip Tease "(1993) and "Skinny Dip "(2004), as well as the mystery-thrillers "Powder Burn "(1981), "Trap Line" (1982), and "A Death in China "(1984), which were cowritten with fellow "Miami Herald "journalist Bill Montalbano (1941 1998). Hiaasen is best known for his satirical writing and dark humor, much of which is directed at various social and political issues in his home state of Florida. He is an award-winning columnist for the "Miami Herald", and lives in Vero Beach.
Praise For…
"It seems unlikely that the master of noir-tinged, surrealistic black humor would write a novel for young readers. And yet, there has always been something delightfully juvenile about Hiaasen's imagination; beneath the bent cynicism lurks a distinctly 12-year-old cackle. In this thoroughly engaging tale of how middle schooler Roy Eberhardt, new kid in Coconut Cove, learns to love South Florida, Hiaasen lets his inner kid run rampant, both the subversive side that loves to see grown-ups make fools of themselves and the righteously indignant side, appalled at the mess being made of our planet. The story is full of offbeat humor, buffoonish yet charming supporting characters, and genuinely touching scenes of children enjoying the wildness of nature. He deserves a warm welcome into children's publishing."—Booklist
"A wonderful tour-de-force."—The Boston Globe

There are some ASF file that have WMV3 encoded material with me. When I checked it with GSpot then it was showing me the following things:
Codec info:
Codec: WMV3
Name: WMP v9 (VC-1 Simple/Main)
I have Windows Vista on my computer and if I am trying to play the same file then I get a error message that WMP 11 cant play the file since the file type and codec is not supported. If am playing the same file on Windows XP computer then it will just play fine, so it seems that the files are alright. When I checked on the internet for solutions then everywhere it was told that the WMP3 codec comes preinstalled in Windows Vista. So, does anyone know what should I do next. Thanks for any information.

26 May
The brand new Edinburgh City page has been expanded with a dozen new graphics.
25 May 2016 - More Victoriana
Brian Webb has been trawling through more 19th century press cuttings and found definitive evidence of when the short-lived Middlesbrough Ironopolis switched from their original green and maroon tops to cherry and white. He has, in the process, resolved a long standing puzzle about the tops worn in this, the only surviving photograph of the team, taken when they won the Northern League and before they made their ill-fated application to join the Football League. We now know that they adopted striped shirts in January 1891, changing to cherry red tops with a white sash in February the following year.
Brian has also established that Sunderland Albion usually played in dark blue (changing to white when shirts clashed with opponents). Just like the Nops, Albion broke away from their parent club in a dispute over payments. They existed for four seasons before they went bust.
Ian Newell has sent in confirmation of Plymouth Argyle's strip from 1898-99.
23 May 2016 - 2015-16 Update
Saturday's FA Cup final kits have been added.
Portsmouth (shorts detailing corrected): Crewe Alexandra (2nd strip trim ammended): Mansfield Town (socks updated): Brentford (3rd added): Bolton Wanderers (charity strip added): Burnley (charity strip added). My thanks to David King for these.
21 May - 2016-17 First Kits
The new Edinburgh City section is open.
20 May - 2016-17 First Kits
Celtic added. Supporters of Greenock Morton are so incensed by the decision to drop their team's beloved hoops that the club have postponed the planned launch and may withdraw the controversial new strip - full story here.
International Updates
Euro 2016: Belgium 2nd socks corrected. Germany 2nd shorts detailing corrected.
World Cup 1986: Poland's change strip did not have the elaborate shadow stripes seen on their first choice shirt.
Victorian Miscellany
Brian Webb has been scouring press cuttings from the 1890s and has passed on a few gems. Cheltenham Town adopted ruby red shirts for the first time in August 1896. We can also now confirm that Derby County were wearing their unique blue, chocolate and amber shirts in December 1886, a year earlier than previously thought. Richard Collinson has found evidence that Middlesbrough adopted white shirts with blue trimmings and the borough arms in 1886.
19 May - Home International Section
I've been through the Home International pages and removed all the redundant "Buy From" links and added a large number of fresh ones that lead to currently available shirts for England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Most of these are of limited availability so do get cracking if you want to snap one up. The entrance hall has also been spruced up.

9 May - 2016-17 First Kits
Historical Updates
I found this image on the onevalefan website, a very useful photographic archive of Port Vale's kits down the years. The point of interest is the Staffordshire knot crest incorporating the club's initials. This is the earliest evidence I have seen of Vale wearing a badge.
This is a photograph of Clydebank wearing their distinctive sash shirts in 1970-71. This shows that they wore red socks rather than the white ones I had previously shown. Incidentally the current Clydebank FC, which plays at junior level, wear a very similar strip.
While we are on the subject, I came across this photograph of the original Clydebank FC from 1920-21. Formed in 1914, the club played in the Scottish League until 1931 when they resigned and went out of business, a victim of the recession that hit the Clyde shipyards in the late 1920s.
Lee Gauntlett has found a cutting in the Manchester Athletic News from March 1882 that describes Scotland wearing red and white "stripes" (almost certainly hoops) against Wales at Hampden Park. This suggests that the blue and white jerseys (which I believe were provided by Edinburgh Academicals RFC) already recorded were only worn against England earlier in March.
Barry Gayton has been in touch with a family story that suggests a link between Blackburn Rovers and the fledgling Norwich City which explains why the Citizens (as Norwich were known at the time) started out wearing tops that were identical to those of the Lancashire side.
2015-16 Update
Huddersfield Town's charity strip has been added.
7 May - 2016-17 First Kits
Barnet, Grimsby Town, Falkirk, Rochdale, Chelsea, Cardiff City, Queens Park Rangers (new crest), Ipswich Town, Stoke City.
2015-16 Update
Norwich City charity strip added.
29 April - 2016-17 First Kits
Manchester City (new crest), Bristol City, Sunderland, Chesterfield, Republic of Ireland (change) added.
2015-16 Updates
Tottenham Hotspur charity kit.
18 April
Crawley Town and Plymouth Argyle have released details of their 2016-17 strips.
12 April - 2015-16 Update
Bolton Wanderers (new shirt sponsor), Barnsley (charity strip), Aston Villa (new crest added).
6 April
On the left is an interesting photograph of West Bromwich Albion taken in 1882 when they briefly wore red and white jerseys. I've taken this opportunity to refresh Albion's crest history.
On the right is James Iremonger (1876-1956) an all-rounder who played for Nottinghamshire Cricket Club and Nottingham Forest at the turn of the 19th century. Iremonger made three appearances at full back for England in 1901-02. For copyright reasons I am not able to publish a photograph that appears to show him wearing a dark England shirt (although you can view it here on the Getty Images website.) I had speculated that this may have been worn when England played a German XI in September 1901 but several photographs have come to light that show England wore their regular strip while the Germans were in quartered shirts. Iremonger won full caps against Scotland and Ireland but there was no reason for England to change their shirts in these games. I have now concluded that he removed the FA crest from his international shirt and had it sewn onto his club top before posing for a portrait to celebrate his international debut.
Next we have an image of Josh Johnson (1884-?) who made 276 appearances for Crystal Palace between 1907 and 1919. This is the first photographic evidence I have seen for the unique shirts worn by Palace in 1912-13. (Photograph courtesy of the Gottfried Fuchs Blogspot.)
From the same website comes this very early advertisement for Football Kit, dating from 1876 which boasts that the advertiser has the colours of every club in Scotland in stock. There were probably fewer than 50 association football clubs in Scotland at the time and more than half of these wore plain navy jerseys, so the claim is not as impressive as it initially sounds.
29 March
Queen of the South (1996-97, 1997-98 corrected).
1958 World Cup: Scotland wore all-red socks in their Group Two match against Yugoslavia to avoid a colour clash. New evidence indicates that Paraguay wore black shorts rather than blue (see left) in this tournament.
2015-16 Update
Northampton Town 3rd strip updated: Annan Athletic's new 3rd strip added.
Following on from the major overhaul of this section (17 January) I have made a few final tweaks to five graphics 1986-2002.
22 March - Euro 2016 Update
Nike's new "Vapor" design for England's Euro 2016 kits has not met with general approval. In fact the most positive comment in HFK's inbox describes them as "odd:" most correspondents were considerably more scathing. In HFK's opinion, these strips are a disgrace, placing the Nike brand above the traditions of the England team and the FA. For more insight have a look at David Squires' amusing piece in The Guardian.
Also added today, Poland (1st, 2nd), Croatia (1st, 2nd), Portugal (1st, 2nd), Turkey (1st, 2nd), France (1st, 2nd). These are all variants on the Vapor design. The USA and Brazil are also to wear this template, a sad reflection on Nike's growing impact on the game.
15 March
Sheffield Wednesday have announced that their original badge, designed in 1956, is to be revived next season and will feature regularly on the teams' shirts for the first time.
Scottish Miscellany
Detailing on these 2003-04 graphics has been updated: Dundee United, Livingston, Hibernian, Dundee, Rangers (1st, 2nd, 3rd).
2004-05: Rangers (3rd), Livingston, Kilmarnock, Dunfermline Athletic, Dundee, Heart of Midlothian, Motherwell, Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Dundee United.
Ross County (1976-77, 1980-81, 1981-82 added): Queen of the South (1995-96 added): Rangers (1997-98 3rd detailing amended).
14 March
Here are two interesting early snippets recently found by regular contributors. Paul Nagel has found a contemporary reference to Newton Heath LYR (Manchester United) wearing "white with blue cord" in 1879. White tops were quite common at the time, being cheap and widely available: coloured caps, socks and/or strips of coloured fabric were worn to distinguish one team from another. This is the first time I have seen a reference to "cord."
Lee Gauntlett has found a press cutting from 1911 that describes Crewe Alexandra's first colours as "blue and white." Although the arrangement is not recorded I think it likely that this refers to the one-inch hooped jerseys that were widely available at the time. Knickers were rarely described as players provided their own in whatever colour they had to hand.
10 March
The MLS 2016 section is now complete.
Euro 2016: The new kits for Ireland and Iceland have been added.
20 February
MLS: DC United's new crest added.
Stoke City: New third strip added.
Historical material
George Chilvers and his Facebook chums have spotted that the shirts worn by Leeds United in the early 1950s had oversized shoulders, as can be seen on this team photograph from 1953-54.
The famous sketch on the right shows Blackburn Rovers playing Old Etonians in the 1882 FA Cup final. Because of a colour clash, Rovers had to buy a set of hooped jerseys for the match. Brian Webb has found a report in the Athletic News (29 March 1882) that confirms these were blue and white. Although the sketch doesn't show it very well, the public school old boys played in their regular "harlequin" (ie quartered) tops of Eton blue and white.
Birmingham City (1996-97 socks corrected): Newcastle United (1981-82, October 1982-83 added): East Stirlingshire (detailing on 1998-99 & 1999-2000 shirts updated).
18 February
The 2016 MLS section is now open.
The Euro 2016 has been updated with the latest releases (Slovakia 2nd, Switzerland 2nd, Czech Republic 2nd, Austria 2nd, Hungary 1st & 2nd, Ukraine 2nd). I've also added a note about the petition raised by Iceland's supporters about the names that will be worn on the back of their players' shirts in June. (Icelanders generally don't have surnames so fans want forenames instead.)
8 February
Stranraer's crest history has been added. This completes a project that was started in 2011!
I've added the all-green kit worn by the Republic of Ireland in Paris in 1976.
The detailing on Exeter City's current third kit have been updated.
I now have confirmation that when Fulham adopted black and white striped shirts in 1889 they were worn with navy knickers. On the left is the team photographed around 1894.
5 February
Crest history additions: Peterhead, Raith Rovers, Stenhousemuir.
4 February - International Updates
Euro 2016: Albania's kits added.
Euro 1980: Belgium wore pinstriped shirts against Italy rather than in the final. Netherlands' collar altered. (Thanks to Franc Forjan.)
Euro 1984: The Adidas trim on the Yugoslavia and Portugal strips has been corrected. (Thanks again to Franc Forjan.)
Euro 1992: Netherlands shirt detailing modified.
Scotland 1882: Gabriele Tossani has established the details of the crest worn on the hooped shirts worn in the Home Internationals (left). Full story on scottishleague.net.
World Cup 1930: Belgium's crest and Chile's socks revised.
World Cup 1994: The detailing on Brazil's change shirts has been made more apparent.
Republic of Ireland: Cuffs on the 1969 strip worn against Hungary have been altered and the strip worn in the 1970 return match added thanks to Giampaolo Tardivo. Barry Rojack has supplied new details on the shirts worn in 2001 against Estonia.
3 February
Two undated and rather grainy photographs of the Highland League side Inverness Thistle have come to light. The one on the left is from around 1950 and shows the team wearing a thistle crest. the second image (right) I have provisionally dated as being from 1968-69. If you can corroborate dates for either please get in touch. In 1994 Thistle merged with their local rivals Caledonian to form Inverness Caledonian Thistle and were elected to the Scottish Football League. The third Inverness team, Clachnacuddin were going to be part of the merger but could not agree terms and opted out.
Thanks to Simeon Ayton I have been able to draw more accurate versions of the Cambridge United "book and ball" crest worn in the mid 70s.
17 January - The Mariners Updated
I've spent the last four days working my way through an enormous file of photographs and detailed notes sent to me by Grimsby Town supporter and collector, Dave Wherry. Thanks to Dave, the Mariners' page has been substantially updated with many missing kits added, corrections made and several mid-season changes now recorded. Grimsby's early kit history is fascinating. Featured on the left, for example is the 1910-11 squad wearing chocolate and light blue jumpers: these were replaced by the now familiar black and white striped shirts at the start of the season. On the right is the 1905-06 squad wearing deep salmon pink tops.
12 January - Historical Miscellany
Halifax Town (1970-71 - see left, 1971-72 corrected).
I've updated the Chester City crest history.
Crewe Alexandra's current third kit added and we have the answer to the question, "Why did the Posh wear black at Blackpool?"
With help from Tony Sealey and the minute books that can now be searched on The Everton Collection, I have reviewed the history of Everton's change kits between 1952 and 1964. The minutes, for example, record that the team wore old gold and black in an FA Cup tie against Ipswich Town in January 1953 and this strip made several more appearances over the next seven seasons. They also tell us that all white was adopted as a change kit in 1958-59. This is seen here during a pitch invasion at Stamford Bridge when supporters seem less than pleased with the new look. (Photograph courtesy of corbychelsea.com)
8 January
The computer glitch that affected HFK last month has finally been resolved and we are back in business. Thank you for your patience and special thanks to everyone who has submitted new historical material, which I will now start to publish.
Mark Andrews and Andy Kelly continue to delve into primary source material and shed light onto the early history of Arsenal. Their latest coup is a cutting from the London Evening News dated 17 December 1892 which confirms that the puzzling striped shirts (worn here by Caesar Jenkins) were blue and white. These appear to have been worn just once in a home game against Nottingham Forest because a week later, against Burslem Port Vale (who wore red at this time) they turned out in white tops. Read the full story on The Arsenal History.
Romania 1930s Colours Finally Confirmed
In the course of his research into the colours of South American national teams between 1910 and 1967, Esteban Catalán has finally found the corroboration needed to confirm the colours of Romania's shirts in the 1930 World Cup. In its coverage of the tournament, Chilean magazine Los Sports describes the Romanian team wearing red "uniformes" with yellow collars against Peru.
Brian Webb has completed his research into the early history of the Plaiters (as they were known at the time) and made some fresh discoveries about their colours during this period. Read the full story on Brian's website, The Straw Plaiters.
Variant kits worn against Scotland (1974), Yugoslavia (1976) and Scotland (1977) added, change strip 1958-1962 updated.
Paul Nagel has established that the Reds' change strips between 1910 and 1922 were blue and white.
2015-16 Update
Nottingham Forest (3rd), Preston North End (3rd), Peterborough United (3rd).

Tim Eyman showed up at the state Capitol to announce plans for an initiative that would require a two-thirds majority of the Legislature — or a public vote — for all tax increases.
OLYMPIA — Another year. Another Tim Eyman initiative.
The Mukilteo initiative promoter showed up at the state Capitol on Monday to announce plans for an initiative this year that would require a two-thirds majority of the Legislature — or a public vote — for all tax increases.
If that sounds familiar, it's because the new proposal would restore a key provision of I-960, the 2007 initiative that put the two-thirds tax-vote requirement in place.
Majority Democrats say they plan to suspend I-960 to make way for tax increases to help close a $2.6 billion state budget gap and stave off severe cuts to state services.

- Trump, Clinton win Washington state primary
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Boeing plans hundreds of layoffs in local IT unit
Most Read Stories
Because two years have elapsed since voters approved I-960, lawmakers can suspend or modify it with a simple majority vote.
Eyman's return on the first day of the 60-day legislative session sparked a debate about how democracy is supposed to function.
Gov. Chris Gregoire and other Democratic leaders say Eyman's meddling interferes with the work of elected officials.
"For those like him who want to have a say constantly, come on down and run for election. Otherwise, leave it to us," Gregoire said.
Gregoire made the remarks after accepting thousands of petitions delivered by social-services, health-care and education advocates. Those groups are part of a coalition urging Gregoire and lawmakers to consider tax increases to avoid drastic budget cuts.
Senate Majority Leader Lisa Brown, D-Spokane, expressed similar sentiments last week, saying I-960 has had "ludicrous" consequences and that suspending it would "stay true to the principle of majority rule."
Eyman and his supporters scoffed at such comments, noting that voters have endorsed the two-thirds requirement three times.
"You'd think that a fourth time shouldn't be necessary," Eyman said.
Whether the initiative is really needed may be in the hands of the Legislature, Eyman said.
"The more they restrain themselves and the more they can actually hold back from raising taxes, it actually kills our signature drive," Eyman said during a news conference in Secretary of State Sam Reed's office. "But that wouldn't make us very sad at all. That would actually be a good outcome."
While Gregoire and others have broached the topic of tax increases, they haven't gotten specific yet.
And matters won't get much clearer today when Gregoire delivers additional budget details to a legislative panel. At a Senate Ways and Means Committee hearing, Gregoire is expected to offer her "buyback" list of at least $700 million in state services she wants to preserve from cuts.
But Gregoire said she won't specify how to pay for that. The state's budget picture will be better known once Congress decides how much federal money will be sent to states.
To qualify for the November ballot, Eyman's latest initiative must receive valid signatures from 241,153 registered voters.

I had hoped to find this mystery about murders based on Dante's Inferno to be enthralling and engrossing, and at times it was, but mostly it wasn't. All the elements are there - horrifying murders, a literary connection, characters based on the greats from nineteenth-century America, and a deep psychological background for the murderer. I found the man eventually revealed as the murderer fascinating, and many of the main and supporting characters are interesting in their own right, but for some reason, I struggled to get through this book.
Good, but slightly long and hard to read
'The Dante Club' - novel, or plot to get people to read Dante's Inferno? Well, both! And quite effective as both, apparently!
I was a bit loath to read this book, because it sounded a little too similar to Arturo Perez-Reverte's 'The Club Dumas'. I can't say that the one does not owe a debt to the other, but I did very much enjoy this book, which is a well-researched, well-written historical mystery of the sort that leaves the reader wanting to do more research to find out more about the characters, the time period and the books mentioned - always a good thing! The plot concerns a group of poets - including the historical figures of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., and James Russell Lowell, who are devoted to, against university bureaucracy, translating Dante and bringing his works to an American audience for the first time. But, when some vicious and bizarre murders of highly-placed society figures occur in Boston, they are the only ones who notice that the men have been killed in ways which correspond to the tortures of hell described in the Inferno. Can they bring this information to the police without throwing suspicion upon themselves and their work? Or can they solve the crimes themselves?
So disappointing. This book takes forever to get where it's going- and it's not really all that great once you finally get there.
Good characters and plot but a bit wordy when it comes to descriptions for my taste

Movie review: 'The Raven'
What would Edgar Allan Poe be doing if he were alive today? Clawing at the inside of his coffin, desperate to get at the people who used and abused his ingenious, diabolical tales as the basis for the pile of cinematic bird poo that is "The Raven."
Like carrion feeders themselves, the filmmakers peck and gnash at Poe's stories to fill out a plot that sounds sort of cool in concept — a serial killer using the author's fiction as a blueprint for ghastly murders — but is featherheaded in execution.
John Cusack makes a terrible Poe, the somber role as one of literature's great tortured souls spotlighting his limitations as an actor. With his little goatee and his black cape, Cusack vaguely looks the part, but he's a lightweight — voice too whiny, mannerisms too exaggerated, cadence too reedy to bring alive the movie's frequent passages of Poe's lyrical writing.
Other than some stylishly gothic visuals crafted by director James McTeigue ("V for Vendetta"), "The Raven" is an unimaginative mess whose superficial appropriations of Poe's devilish yarns are deeply
An introductory sequence establishes Cusack's Poe as a garden-
Screenwriters Hannah Shakespeare and Ben Livingston then pull a "Saw" on Poe, taking that modern torture-porn franchise's idea of savage gamesmanship by a serial killer and imposing it on poor Edgar.
Baltimore police detective Emmett Fields (Luke Evans) enlists Poe to consult on a double homicide after recognizing it as a copycat of the
"The Raven" reinforces how fiendishly clever Poe was. The premises of his stories still resonate as a source of our modern collective nightmares — and as an endless source for Hollywood to plagiarize in contemporary horror tales.
However, rather than taking Poe's ideas and running wild, the filmmakers wring nothing more than a few moments of gore from them. They add no suspense or scares to Poe's images, apply no originality to his plot devices.
This is just a bore; quoth the raven, "Go see something else."
— David Germain, AP Movie Writer
'The Raven'
Starring: John Cusack, Alice Eve, Luke Evans, Brendan Gleeson. (Bloody violence and grisly images)

Face Off 4 Review: Premiere Delivers Solid Start With Royal BattleJanuary 14, 2013 08:00:43 by Ryan Haidet
I was lucky enough to be given a press preview disc of Face Off season four's upcoming premiere — and what a treat it is. The upcoming edition, which has a 90-minute debut on Tuesday, features 14 all-new aspiring special effects makeup artists in one of television's best reality shows that features absolute talent. While this season's premiere episode isn't as exciting as last season's unpredictable turn of events in which Joe quit the competition, it is still a fun example of reality television at its finest. Within minutes of the 14 newbies gathering together, the competition begins with a big battle of royalty.

For the first time ever, the Face Off winner was crowned based on America's vote during a live one-hour finale on Halloween night. The entire cast, well, all of them but quitter Joe who voluntarily left in the first episode, reunited together to watch either Derek, Laura or Nicole rewarded with the title of Face Off champion along with $100,000, a new Toyota and the opportunity to be a guest lecturer at the Makeup Forever academies in New York and Paris.

The final three Face Off contestants squared off in their last challenge of the season battling for the $100,000 grand prize and title of champion.

VIDEO Exclusive Interview! Face Off's Beki Ingram Dishes On Season 3, Halloween PassionOctober 31, 2012 07:00:31 by Ryan Haidet
Every Halloween season, one former reality star likes to lurk inside the Bloodview Haunted House in Broadview Heights, Ohio (just south of Cleveland). The night we stopped by Bloodview to chat with Beki Ingram from Face Off season two, she was dressed in a black costume portraying a "shadow demon." During our exclusive interview with Beki, she offered behind-the-scenes details about different elements of Face Off. With the third season about to crown a winner, it's the perfect time to check in with Beki. Dive inside this story to watch our exclusive interview to hear everything Beki has to say, including why watching season three makes her "anxiety ridden."

Face Off 3 Recap: Crime Scene Creature Challenge Determines Final 3October 24, 2012 01:16:47 by Ryan Haidet
Roy, Nicole, Laura and Derek: The final four Face Off season 3 contestants. This week's episode sent one more packing and left us with the final three who will compete for the grand prize in next week's finale. For this week's challenge, the aspiring special effects makeup artists found themselves in Griffith Park face to face with four different over-the-top, bloody crime scenes — each with a murder victim who "died" in a not-so-normal way. Each contestant had to choose one of the death scenarios as their motivation to create the creature that likely caused the gruesome death. For a show based on special effects makeup, this was a really cool concept.

Face Off 3 Recap: Calling All Cyborgs!October 17, 2012 10:57:57 by Ryan Haidet
Face Off took a robotic twist this week as the final five aspiring makeup artists worked to create an original cyborg character. To help get them each motivated for the project, the contestants were taken to a junkyard where they gathered various parts to include in their final product. While I didn't think this task would interest me very much since cyborgs aren't my thing, I was extremely impressed by some of the finished makeups.

Face Off 3 Recap: Exploring The World Of Dr. SeussOctober 10, 2012 12:48:34 by Ryan Haidet
Being on a reality show, they say, might make you famous some day.
The Face Off contents aspiring for success, found themselves in Seussian stress.
After stopping by the home of the Grinch, the contestants once again found themselves in a time pinch.
While battling to survive another round, one's lackluster makeup sent them homeward bound.
Hey, at least it actually rhymes.
While I am definitely no Dr. Seuss, his masterful mix of words and crazy creations were used as the motivation for this week's spotlight challenge. Standing on the Universal Studios backlot in a snowy scene ripped straight from Dr. Seuss's "How The Grinch Stole Christmas," the remaining makeup artists met with host McKenzie Westmore who revealed the next spotlight challenge: To create a human-hybrid creation inspired by a character from Dr. Seuss's "Sleep Book." Awesome! I love Dr. Seuss! Naturally, I loved the way the finished makeups came out. Jump inside the rest of the story to see close-up photos of every Seuss makeup.

Face Off 3 Recap: One Contestant Rises From The Dead In Monster TwistOctober 3, 2012 10:49:33 by Ryan Haidet
With only six contestants left in the competition, Face Off welcomed a monster twist to the competition. "Today's challenge could potentially change someone's life," host McKenzie Westmore said before revealing that all of the formerly eliminated makeup artists — except for quitter Joe — were back to compete for a shot back in the game. Ah, ripping a twist right from Survivor. Appropriately, the theme for the redemption-style Foundation Challenge was based on Day of the Dead since one of the five ousted artists would rise from the grave and be given new life in the competition. Which ousted artist resurrected their life and returned to the battle? Dive inside to find out more and to see close-up shots of all the finished makeups!

Face Off 3 Recap: Selling Out To A Video GameSeptember 26, 2012 09:55:52 by Ryan Haidet
Thankfully, this week's episode of Face Off included two challenges, which this season has mostly been lacking. Sadly, neither challenge was based on anything very compelling — the spotlight challenge was actually just a giant commercial for a video game. It was sad to see the main motivation for the competition basically being used as an additional way to make some cash from the company promoting the new game. Whether you believe it or not, this was totally selling out. Despite the disappointing premise for the competition, the final makeups turned out pretty cool. Head inside the article to see close-up pictures of the complete makeups and to find out who was eliminated!

I'm in the same boat you are. I have resorted on sewing my cheapy cheap cloth diapers in diaper covers in the 0-3 month or the 3-6 month range. When dd will let me work on that project. Or my sewing machine isn't messing up.... They will slow down a pee but will need to be changed immediately after it happens. Encourages me to make sure there is plenty of potty time for her.

On Princess Diana's Birthday, Everything She Touched is Still Gold
Princess Diana would have turned 52 yesterday. In her short life, she left behind a legacy of aspiration, taste, and philanthropy. But in tangible terms, she passed on a wealth of possessions. In the years since her tragic death in 1997, everything she touched became a relic of her reign as the People's Princess. From the blue sapphire ring Prince William passed from his mother to his bride to the iconic dresses that serve as artifacts on display around the world, Diana's belongings hold tremendous value for her family, friends, and for collectors. To this day, her possessions are still coveted as important pieces of history, selling for record prices to the highest bidder. Here's a look at Lady Di's recent items up for auction, or on display. They serve as testament to the undying interest in a life cut short. — Piper Weiss, Shine Staff

World's Best German Pancakes
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 25 mins
It's the first thing I learned how to cook and is still my favorite.

- Preheat oven at 400°F.
- Put margarine in a 9x13-inch pan and put in oven.
- In a medium bowl mix milk, flour, salt, and eggs.
- When oven is at 400°F take out pan and pour in mixture.
- Cook for 20-25 minutes or until fluffy.
Most Helpful
These really are the best. So fast to mix up and quick to bake. I cooked it in my cast iron skillet and it was done in 20 min. I didn't leave the butter in the pan while preheating, just let it melt for a few minutes in the oven or it will burn. My 5 little kids raved over this! Thanks for an easy breakfast recipe.
Delicious! Tip for beginners: don't leave the margarine/butter in the oven the whole time that the oven is preheating or it will burn; just leave it in until the butter is melted and also beware that the butter might splatter a bit as you pull it out. I used 2 round metal pans (I think 8") and had to take mine out after 16 minutes because the tops (which had puffed upward out of the confines of the pan, which is normal and always happens regardless of the pan I use) were getting really brown. The pancakes were cooked through. I think maybe it took less time because I used metal pans & maybe because I split the recipe into two pans instead of just one big one (my oven runs a normal temp and does not run hot, which would have been the only other explanation that I could think of). I love these with lemon squeezed all over it and then a good dusting of powdered sugar.
This was a nice German Pancake. Very easy to make and it was great with a squeeze of lime and some powdered sugar. Thanks, Wynd, for posting!

The success of the Renault Duster and Mahindra Quanto in 2012 proves again that we are an SUV-crazy people. This comes on top of the success of BMW X1 and Audi Q3the entry-luxury SUVs. Here are a few SUVs that will come your way in 2013. But, mind you, all are not true sport utility vehicles
Ford EcoSport
Engine: 1.0-litre turbo-petrol, 1.5-litre diesel
Price: Rs.7-9 lakh
Expected: June 2013
Sharing a lot of its underpinnings with the new Ford Fiesta, the EcoSport, like most Fords before it, promises fantastic driver appeal and an accomplished ride. Powered by the 1.5-litre 89bhp diesel engine from the Fiesta and a new 123bhp, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol that offers the performance of a 1.6-litre engine with the efficiency of a smaller motor, theres a lot to look forward to when the new Ford is launched. And, despite its sub-four-metre length, theres decent space on the inside. The best part? It qualifies as a small car in the eyes of the Indian government and therefore will be priced very competitively.
VW Polo variants
Engine: 1.2-litre petrol, 1.6-litre diesel
Price: Rs.6-8 lakh Expected: March-December 2013
Volkswagen is keen to cash in on Indians craze for SUVs with a rugged version of its Polo hatchback. To be called the Cross Polo, the car will come with restyled bumpers, a matte plastic band along the lower portion of the body and roof rails. An SUV-like tailgate-mounted spare wheel is a possibility too. The Cross Polo wont, however, come with any off-road hardware, though it will receive a new 1.5-litre diesel engine. A CNG version for the Cross Polos new turbocharged 1.2 petrol engine is on the cards as well. This TSI engine will debut on the regular Polo in March and will be offered with a sophisticated twin-clutch automatic gearbox. Volkswagen will also launch the Polo with the 1.6-litre diesel engine from the Vento. It will be considerably more expensive than the smaller 1.2 diesel version, but could set a new benchmark for performance among hatchbacks.
Jeep Wrangler & Grand Cherokee
Engine: 2.8-litre and 3.0-litre diesel
Price: Rs.35 lakh and R40 lakh Expected: End-2013
You dont really need an introduction to Jeep thanks to Mahindra, but now the original Jeep is coming in. Initial offerings will be the Grand Cherokee, a luxury SUV with dimensions somewhat similar to the Mercedes-Benz M-Class, and the go-anywhere, hardy Wrangler. Under the hood of the Grand Cherokee is a 3.0-litre V6 diesel designed by Fiat that
