Light Reading
A stroll around Hall 1 might just give you a crash course on the Indian legal system. An entire wall is dedicated to peach-coloured pamphlets which include details of different Acts, from The Code of Criminal Procedures Provisions Act, The Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Act to rare ones such as The Insecticides Act. These pamphlets are priced anywhere between Rs 30 to Rs 150. You could also pick up a pocket-sized booklet of the Indian Constitution for Rs 250.
Meet the Folks
Enter Hall 7, and you will be welcomed by a huge reclining figure of a lady reading. The area is called Indigenous Voice: Mapping Indias Folk and Tribal Literature. With bamboo shoots, bricked floors and sand homes, the space achieves a sense of tribal plurality. Miniatures from various states showed instruments, puppets, and paintings in various art forms, such as Kalamkari from Andhra Pradesh, Gond art from Central India, Patwa style of painting from Bihar and West Bengal, and Ravan-Chaya traditional shadow-puppet theatre from Odisha. Folk tales from the Northeast, a cultural history of Thanjavur and the oral epics of Kalahandi are the books you can buy from this pavilion.
Roll Call
Authors, artistes, book launches and discussions have lent an alternative space at the fair. Here you could meet Narcopolis author Jeet Thayil (February 9, 6 pm, Hall 2-5), Shakti Bhatt First Book Prize awardee Naresh Fernandes (February 10, 6 pm, Hall 2-5) and Upinder Singh, the daughter of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and a DU professor (Today at 4 pm, Hall 2-5). Writing workshops are also on, with one conducted by French novelist and journalist Dominique Sigaud at the French Pavilion on February 9 (Hall 7; register at firstname.lastname@example.com)
Paint it Red
An artist is not paid for his labour but for his vision, says Shanti Devi, a National Awardee from Bihar, as her fingers effortlessly work on a Madhubani painting. Spotted at Hall 7, Devi themes her paintings on the news of the day, from a rape incident of a man inserting a rod into a womans mouth to one which is based on CM Sheila Dixits statement on womens safety in Delhi. For someone who started selling her work for Rs 4 at 12, Devi, in her 50s now, sells her work abroad and, at fairs, for more than Rs 4,000 (depending on the intricacy of the work).

Eagles improve to 13-0
February 02, 2012
WALWORTH TOWNSHIP — Nothing has been able to stop the Faith Christian boys basketball team this season.
Not opponents. Not injuries. Not even illness has derailed the Eagles.
Last week was another example of the squad's resiliency.
Faith downed three more teams to improve to 13-0 overall and 6-0 in the Indian Trails Blue Conference. And the Highway 67 boys did it with two starters missing considerable time with flu-like symptoms. Starting center Ben Sass, a 6-foot-5 powerhouse, even had to be taken to the emergency room at one point during his illness. Sass even lost as much as 20 pounds in the process.
Despite not being at full strength, the Eagles took care of business at home against University Lake School.
The Eagles built a 27-10 halftime lead en route to a 49-17 pounding of their conference rivals.
"We were ready to go," Faith coach Brian Pollard said. "We clamped down on defense and took control. We only gave up seven baskets."
Adam Montsma, the area's leading scorer at 20.8 points per game, led the charge Friday with 16 points. His twin brother, Alex, added 14. The brothers combined for five 3-pointers.
The Eagles held the Lakers to single digits in all four quarters.
Sass, who missed a week of school the previous week, played a mere 12 minutes, and starting point guard Jared Mulder, still recovering from the flu, was held to three points.
Sophomore Joe Ingersoll added 10 points. Pollard was impressed with the play of the Montsmas and Ingersoll.
"All three played good games," Pollard said. "Joe did a great job on the boards and defensively. He had some really nice moves inside."
Faith travels to Grayslake, Ill. Thursday to battle Westlake Christian, Ill.
Faith Christian 57, Trinity Academy 28
Playing at home against a regional rival, the Montsmas came out of the gates on fire. They were the only two Eagles to score in the first quarter. Adam scored 14 points in the first period, and Alex added six to build a 20-6 lead.
Faith went up 38-13 by halftime. For the game, the boys knocked down eight triples, led by Alex Montsma's four.
Sass missed the game, and Mulder only played two quarters.
Faith Christian 63, SWCHA 59
In the wildest game of the week, Faith had to rely on its reserves at home Jan. 24. But it was Adam Montsma who nearly single-handedly won it for Faith.
Faith clung to a two-point lead with less than a minute on the clock. A SWCHA player passed up a wide-open 3-pointer and drove the lane. He lost the ball, and Adam Montsma grabbed it for a steal.
With 15 seconds left, Adam Montsma drained two free throws to put the game out of reach at 63-59.
Adam Montsma finished with a career-high 39 points including 14 of 15 from the foul line. He flashed to the high post on many possessions and was able to drive to the hoop and either make layups or get to the line. He finished with 12 field goals including one 3-pointer.
"Adam did a great job," Pollard said. "He found the weakness of the defense and kept exploiting it. We figured out a way to win. It was our closest game this year."
Alex Montsma played point guard with Mulder out most of the game. Also, Sass did not play.
Jake Alldredge and Brandon Valadez started in place of Sass and Mulder.
Faith led, 45-37, after three quarters, but SWCHA came back in the fourth. Caleb Heinritz led the visitors with 22 points.
Ingersoll added 13 points for Faith.

Another great NOLA restaurant.... the oysters were out of this world!! Friendly staff, very helpful with recommendations of what was good to eat/ drink... the only negative aspect was that the recommended gratuity is added on as standard onto the bill, eventhough there were only two of us eating together. We have no objection to paying a gratuity, but we...

Our food was quick hot and delicious! Our server,I don't remember her name"" was awesome. She always had a big smile and was super helpful.

The food was outstanding and new to my wife and I. The waitress Jamie was extremely friendly and encouraged us to try adding fried crayfish to our Mardi gras pasta which made it even more amazing. She even acted as an impromptu tour guide and directed us to less touristy places that felt more authentic. The crab cakes were also to die for. I will definitely be coming back here. 5 stars. If you go be sure to ask for Jamie.

I came here while taking a trip across america from California to New Jersey. Amazingly, we found this place open late at night at 12 am. I was so hungry, but wasn't sure what to get. We ordered the triple platter dish that had Gumbo, etouffee, and something else.

My brother in law told us about this restaurant and it is in a great location in the French Quarter. I really liked it because it had an upscale feel with a casual dress code. I got the shrimp fettucine which had an incredible cream sauce. My husband had the barbeque shrimp (southern style not the usual BBQ shrimp) and he enjoyed it. I would highly recommend!

I happend to stumble upon this place on a hot, humid afternoon last week on my first trip to NOLA. It was the busy, work week lunch hour. I was greeted by friendly faces at the door, promptly seated and immediately served a huge ice cold glass of water. The young waitress was friendly and informative. The decor was cute & cozy and the A/C nice and cool. \r
\r
When I asked her what she recommended she said the Crab Cakes. I told her I had a big breakfast and had a long walk back so I didn't want anything too heavy. She was kind enough to let me know that the appetizer crabcakes were the same size as the meal without all the sides - Perfect! (She also said they were 90% crab and she wasn't kidding. They had the most crab I have ever seen in a crabcake!) I ordered them and a small Greek salad. \r
\r
They came out almost immediately, were HUGE and were smothered in the most wonderful gravy that I ate all of it before ever touching the salad! (Which was big and tasty too) I was stuffed to the gills!!! My water was promptly refilled during my meal and my empty plates promptly removed (all w/o asking). All of the staff was very friendly and accommodating. This is a casual little place, tucked away just off Boubon St that you just have to try if you are there. I will definitely be back.\r
\r
A few notes on past reviews:\r
To Jon: Your food server IS mainly to blame for how your evening went. No restaurant dedicates one server to one party - regardless of the size - EVER. It is up to him to coordinate your drink orders, advise a busboy or another server to check on your party when he cannot. He also has to learn how to coordinate your meals with the kitchen and if there was a bit of a wait, HE should have informed you up front. Seems to me if you were pressed for time then you should have informed him of such. You failed to mention that this is a SMALL place and if it was full or not. This is not a chain restaurant, it's home cooking and real home cooking takes time. \r
\r
Maybe you should stand in your kitchen and set out 10 plates and 6 bowls. Place all the salad fixings into each plate, stop and read your ticket for which dressing they get, apply them and then pour hot liquid into each bowl. Place them on trays and walk through a small obstacle course of tables and people and steps - I bet it takes you ALOT longer than your 23 minute wait. If you're food didn't taste good than you should have sent it back. \r
\r
Seems to me you have no clue how the food & beverage industry works and next time - if you and your friends want a quick meal - Go to Denny's.\r
\r
I am with Sandra and TexasDiablo (I'm from Texas/NY as well and have worked in some of the finest cuisine establishments in both states.) I agree with both of their reviews.

Myself and 12 friends went to Oceana last Friday night. Obviously we were a big group, so I'm happy to give some leeway when it comes to the speed of service. BUT, I made reservations well in advance and even called the day of to confirm.\r
\r
Upon arrival we were seated promptly in the very nice courtyard...from there things went downhill. Justin was our waiter. I don't completely fault him for everything since I know there's a lot more that goes into making things run smoothly (kitchen, busboys, etc). BUT when a party of 13 comes in at 8pm, whoever you assign to that group should not have a lot of other tables to worry about. We began by ordering a few pitchers of beer. Those didn't take TOO long to arrive, but we never received the waters we had also requested AND after dropping off the beer, Justin disappeared for a solid 10 minutes. He then returned to ask us about appetizers, but at that point we were just ready to order dinner. But he told us he'd be right back to take our orders. By ""right back"" he meants a solid 5-10 minutes. \r
\r
So we finally ordered. In addition, we ordered a couple more pitchers since we'd already been there for about 45 minutes (this is when I started timing things). Those pitchers took 16 minutes to arrive. A few of us had ordered gumbo, salads, etc. Those took 23 minutes from the time we ordered to arrive. \r
\r
At 38 minutes past ordering our entrees, I went to go check on things. Apparently there was another ticket in front of ours and then we'd be up. Well that translated into 16 more minutes to our food began to arrived. That's 54 minutes for those of you keeping track. It took 10 minutes for all of the food to arrive. For those of you practicing polite manners, that means watching your food get cold wandering where the heck the rest of the food is.\r
\r
At this point I was out of my chair and hunting for the manager. I didn't catch her name, but she was a short, blonde gal. I politely (really politely) expressed my disappointment with the service, she told me she'd start fixing things ASAP. The rest of the food arrived a couple minutes later.\r
\r
I ordered the ""Taste of New Orleans."" It tasted more like how Bourbon Street smells at 4am. OK...that's a little harsh, but I just wanted to use that analogy. It wasn't BAD, but it definitely wasn't good and it DEFINITELY was not a taste of the delicious food New Orleans really has to offer. \r
\r
My dirty, etouffe-graveyard plate sat in front of me congealing for about 35 minutes. That isn't just cause I ate much faster than everyone else, it's because Justin, with his food delivered, disappeared for a good 20 minutes. That means, no ketchup for those who wanted catchup, no other condiments, no nothing. When Justin finally re-surfaced, he brought beer and nothing else. So we all just through in the towel, finished our meals, watched our empty plates gather dust, and I headed back to talk to the manager.\r
I complained once more to the manager (politley). She then tried to put a band-aid on a gunshot. One pitcher of beer...ONE. That's what we got for our 3 hour, $459 (18% gratuity added...against my wishes) hell-trip through Oceana. \r
\r
I'm not asking for our food to be free or anything like that. We had consumed way too much. BUT the least you could do is offer us a couple pitchers and a few free desserts to split amongst ourselves.\r
\r
I've had some bad service in my life, but this took the cake. Even if my food had been the best thing I'd ever tasted, I still would've left angry. In a town with TONS of great restaraunts, PLEASE avoid this one.

Do you have money in the stock market? Why or why not (and if not, do you invest in some other way?)?
If so, what stocks do you have?
I casually watch the stock market but I'm just a poor student right now (a poor student with a $700 bike, so there's no sympathy) so I don't have any money to invest. Otherwise I'd dabble in the stock market and probably lose all of my money.

Adventurer Bear Grylls takes on extreme survival challenges in some of the world's most hostile and unforgiving environments, from the deserts of Namibia to the skies over Mount Everest
Series 5 Summary
Will Ferrell joins Bear Grylls for a two-day survival mission in the Arctic Circle. Can the actor - who doesn't even like camping - handle the extreme cold and eating deer eyeballs?
Episode 1 - Bear Grylls and Will Ferrell: Born Survivors
Bear Grylls is used to tackling the world's toughest environments and facing wild terrain and animals, but now he's confronted by a new type of challenge - Hollywood actor and comedian Will Ferrell.
Will joins Bear for a special two-day survival mission in the Arctic Circle. He has no clue what to expect, and is more used to helicopters taking him to film premieres. But there's no red carpet waiting this time; he endures a terrifying descent with Bear as they abseil over 150 feet into an icy, rock-strewn gorge in northern Sweden.
As well as for overcoming the freezing temperatures and treacherous landscape, Bear's endurance is put to new use as he leads novice Will through the mission, while the actor offers his own offbeat approach - and comic rather than survival skills - on their journey.
It's a heart-stopping ride for Will. He has to battle the extreme cold and deep snow while Bear cooks up frozen deer eyeballs. Can Will handle the challenge?

How to Care for an Abused Dog
Dogs have fear. Just like humans, they have fear. They can feel pain just like we do. Say, you've got a cute dog that seems happy, but when you take it home you see sadness dropping from the mutt's face. This wikiHow may help you make your dog happy.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Show your affection and love to the dog. If you are grouchy and mean to him/her, then your dog will not change. Take the dog out for walks, hug your dog, and even sleep with him. Treat the dog like the past owner didn't.
2Make sure your dog is healthy and clean. Take the dog to the vet for checkups. Make sure there is no Fleas or ticks in his fur, and make sure he's well-groomed. Teeth care is a must, buy some raw bones at a local butcher (do not cook them, they will splinter in the dogs stomach. After all dogs were meant to eat raw). Buy a brush and clean your dog daily. Also wash him with appropriate dog shampoo that you can get at a pet shop.
3Make sure your dog is up-to date on his shots. Take the dog to the vet and see if your dog is clean enough to take a rabies shot. Most vet's will mail or call you if your dog needs a shot or checkup.
4Feed your dog high-quality dog food. Giving your dog healthy food is important and is a treat. You can also feed raw or seared meat to him with steamed vegetables.
5Contact the shelter or area where you adopted the dog, for tips on where the dog was from.
6Don't get discouraged if the dog has a setback.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Don't do anything that will trigger sadness to your dog.
- Give your dog exercise daily!
- Don't fall for an overnight miracle, if your dog is still sad, you may need to ask a vet for details.

Mayhem # 2905446
About MeMy name is Toni DeRouen. I've been told for the last at least four years, "hey, why don't you try modeling?" So...I'm finally giving it a shot. I reside in the Central Texas area. Currently, I'm looking to do both TFP and paid assignments. I will not shoot nudes, sorry...I will do pinup and lingerie shoots though. I would love to runway model, even though I'm right on the cusp of being too short.
Weekends, usually Sundays, and weekday evenings after 6 pm are the best time to work with me.
Most of the time my boyfriend will be accompanying me to shoots as my escort.
About me...I'm 22 years old, from Gladewater, Texas, currently residing in Killeen, and work full time in retail. I plan on going back to school to get a degree in equine science, and have dreams of starting an equine therapy program for wounded warriors. I also have my own photography business (yes, I love being on both sides of the camera). I love going on adventures, being outdoors...some of my hobbies include running and horseback riding. I have eight tattoos: left ankle, right hip, left shoulder, right ribcage, right shoulder, left thigh, left bicep, and left ribcage.
Please contact me if you would like to know more!

Texas has to adapt to make playoffs without Cruz
With their big boomstick out of the lineup, the Texas Rangers are going to have to adapt to get in the playoffs again.
"This is a club that has never shied away from a challenge before," general manager Jon Daniels said. "It's got a track record of success and we believe in this team, believe in the guys on the club and our pitching staff, our athleticism and the leadership there. We have every expectation that we are going to continue to win and make it to the playoffs, in spite of the situation."
Without Nelson Cruz, the suspended All-Star right fielder and 2011 AL championship series MVP who leads the Rangers with 27 home runs and 76 RBIs.
"The game doesn't stop because one guy is not there," manager Ron Washington said.
Texas will be without Cruz the rest of the regular season after he was suspended 50 games Monday by Major League Baseball following its investigation into the Biogenesis clinic accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs.
While the absence of Cruz will be noticeable, Ian Kinsler and the rest of the Rangers insist that shouldn't affect their playoff chances.
"None. We're missing a guy. Someone is going to have to step up and play right field," Kinsler said. "That's the way this team works. We're not really worried about who's not on the field. We're worried about who's on the field, and winning."
Instead of having another slugger to take over in right field, and more pressing in the middle of the batting order, the Rangers for now have five outfielders that will be in some sort of platoon system.
David Murphy, primarily a left fielder, was in right field for the first game without Cruz while Engel Beltre, recalled from Triple-A, was in left. Leonys Martin started in center, and later moved to right when Craig Gentry came into the game. Joey Butler, called up without ever playing in a major league game, is a right fielder to be used against left-handers.
"Certainly it makes it more challenging on us offensively," said Murphy, whose 12 homers and 34 RBIs top the group that has a combined 19 homers and 70 RBIs.
Even with Cruz, who is eligible for free agency after the season, the Rangers were averaging about 4.3 runs per game and on pace for their fewest runs in a full 162-game season since 1992.
The Rangers went into their game late Tuesday night at the Angels two games behind AL West-leading Oakland. Texas was six games back before winning seven of eight games, including 5-2 in the series opener Monday night at Los Angeles only hours after the discipline against Cruz and 12 other MLB players was announced.
"Does it hurt us more than losing Matt Harrison for all year, Colby Lewis for almost all season? We've lost guys, we've gained guys," catcher A.J. Pierzynski said. "Obviously Nellie's numbers are what they are, and his presence is what it is."
Harrison, the team's opening day starter before two operations on a herniated disk in his lower back, is pitching in rehab games and could be back by the end of the month. The Rangers also had anticipated having Lewis back, but said Tuesday that their most successful postseason pitcher will have surgery to remove bone spurs from his right hip. He had been coming back from elbow surgery last year.
Texas was unable to add a right-handed hitter before last week's non-waiver trade deadline. But right-hander Matt Garza was acquired to join Yu Darvish and Derek Holland in a rotation that is backed by a solid bullpen led by Joe Nathan.

Considering their well-documented dearth of wide receivers, the Carolina Panthers likely will be connected to nearly any halfway decent pass-catcher who pops up on the waiver wire. Not surprisingly, that includes Greg Little, who was released this week by the Cleveland Browns, though they aren't expected to pounce on him until he clears the wire.
WR Little in the mix for Panthers?

Dr. King was a great American hero. We should never forget the peaceful way he encouraged people to challenge deeply-entrenched hatred and fear. We managed a difficult transition without great turmoil and violence. Dr. King should be remembered and honored, and his words treasured.

African American's are again taking a back seat. Now the Dream is being given to Illegal Immigrants. It is time to turn the tide back to African American's. They were here first and their ancestors did not come here freely they were forced here to become slaves. It used to be that most of the stories you would read when it came to race was the African American and their plight in major cites were crime and drugs were constantly being fought. Now the plight is the illegal immigrant. African American's for the last 10 years have now taken a back seat. This is truly sad. It is good to see an article at last about African American's. Keeping the Dream alive needs to be kept in the limelight for our African American citizens. I feel they have been forgotten in the push to allow other nations in.

While we should never ignore the challenges our black American brothers and sisters face, we must also acknowledge that America needs to do better for many, many minorities.
But claiming they were 'here first?'
I agree that decendants of slavery into America had no CHOICE in coming to this country.
But the 'first' people in America...?
Were Native Americans.
My point, is that unless you are over 50% Native American we are ALL 'immigrants.'
While immigration reform is needed, many of our grandparents and great-grandparents came to this country...
from another country.
For example, I, was born in Hawaii.
We, didn't even need to go OVER to America.
They, came to us.

I live on the fringe of a reasonably well-to-do area of town. And yet, it's within 0.5mi of the light-rail transit, and 1.5mi of the highway out of town. Beyond that, there are numerous ways out of the neighborhoods, here ... so, plenty of escape routes.
I feel reasonably secure, when in my own neighborhood and immediately surrounding areas, nice as it is. However, only a fool would doubt there are zero BG's in the area. Within 3mi of my home, there are dozens of neighborhoods on the lower-quarter of the market (value, looks, tenants).
As for BG's ... Being close to light-rail and the highway, it's a good spot for a robbery or other attack. Within 0.5mi of the light-rail, there are 1000 homes in the upper-third of the market in this enclave, but there are also more in the lower-third. BG's are drawn to such opportunities. Several muggings have occurred within a couple/three stops of the light-rail from my home.
Neighborhood -- B+
BG -- Folks hanging around or driving by looking for a mark, though it's a lesser-used road on the fringe of the nicer area. So, low likelihood. Greater risk comes from the darkness on my side streets. Strong risk comes from folks transiting the light-rail who then go cruising within 1mi of it. Low to moderate risk comes from home invasion, after having seen me out at that hour, but it's somewhat lowered because of the fact I'm in a gated area with fairly aware neighbors.

Oklahoma basketball: Nicole Kornet talks about Whitney Hand
NORMAN — Whitney Hand arrived as an Oklahoma freshman in 2008 from Liberty Christian School in Argyle, Texas.
That same year, Nicole Kornet began her high-school freshman season at Liberty.
Kornet, now an Oklahoma freshman herself, had looked forward to playing at least one season with Hand before her career-ending ACL tear last week.
Kornet, a 6-foot-1 guard, started her first career game Nov. 30 against Northwestern State (La.) and scored 19 points. For the season, she's averaging 6.1 points and 2.7 rebounds.
Kornet chatted with The Oklahoman after Saturday's practice about Hand's legacy and the team's sudden lack of depth.
Sunday, No. 12 Oklahoma (8-1) hosts Vanderbilt inside Lloyd Noble Center at 2 p.m.
Q: Because you come from the same high school, do you feel a responsibility to carry on Whitney's legacy?
A: I wanted to play with her so bad. We had the one year difference, but she did redshirt a year, so I thought it would be awesome to play with her. That made watching her go down hurt even worse.
But I know how much these fans love her. We come from the same background, so I want to just push harder for her.
Did you know Whitney at all growing up?
I met her freshman year (of high school) because everyone talked about Whitney. I finally got to meet her, and just being in her presence ... Whitney is just a great person. I knew her a little bit, but not much.
When you were in middle school, did you ever watch her play?
I didn't go to Liberty in eighth grade, so I really had no idea coming into it. When I got there, people were saying, "Oh, there's another basketball player that's going to be just like Whitney."
I was like, "Who is Whitney? I need to meet her."
How big a deal is Whitney at Liberty Christian?
You walk the halls, and there are Whitney posters. Everyone talked to me, "Oh, you're going to Oklahoma with Whitney?"
Just the person she is, she leaves a mark wherever she goes.
How difficult is practice with only eight healthy players?
We can't do 5-on-5 things, and when we do switch off, there's always two people that have to stay in.
It gets tiring, definitely, but coach knows that and she's been helping us out, and cutting practice a little shorter. It's hard, but we're doing the best with what we've got.
When: 2 p.m. Sunday
Where: Lloyd Noble Center, Norman
TV: Fox Sports Plus (Cox 68/HD 715)
Radio: KOKC-AM 1520, KREF-AM 1400
Three things to know
*Senior Whitney Hand tore her ACL in the Dec. 6 win over North Texas, leaving OU with just eight healthy players.
*Sophomore Sharane Campbell got her first start of the season against North Texas; the former Star Spencer standout scored 11 points.
*The Sooners lost to the Commodores 78-66 during their Thanksgiving weekend tournament last season.

Aquinas contends that we are soul/body composites, and that one's death brings about the dissolution of this union. Although he also contends that our souls will exist during the interim period between our death and the General Resurrection, it is not clear whether he thinks that we will continue exist during this period. While his considered opinion appears to be that as soul/body composites we cannot exist apart from our bodies, in his Commentary on the Apostles' Creed he implies that we will exist for a time as disembodied souls. In this paper I argue that Aquinas can consistently uphold the continued existence of the faithful departed. In particular, I argue that he can consistently affirm both (i) that Peter is not his soul, and (ii) that Peter can exist for a time as a soul.

Free hugs is a real life controversial story of Juan Mann, a man who's sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their life.

Astley, ranked 99th in the world, clinched a final-frame decider against the three-times UK finalist, who had fought back from 4-2 down to lead 5-4.
The 24-year-old Astley was delighted with what he sees as a landmark victory.
"It's the biggest win of my career so far. I was nervous when it came to the decider but I felt I controlled those nerves by taking one shot at a time to make sure I potted everything," he said.
"I've been playing really well in practice over the last month or so and obviously it's a case of doing it on the match table.
"I remember coming down here as a 12 or 13 year-old to watch the UK Championship so to think I've come and won my first match here today, it's quite a special moment."
Jimmy White also booked his place in the second round, but the 1992 UK champion was made to work hard by Michael Wasley in a 6-4 win.
White appeared to be in control at 3-1 up at the interval, but Wasley came back strong to level at 3-3. The Whirlwind then reaffirmed his domination by taking three of the next four frames to book a second-round date with Stuart Bingham, who demolished Ahmed Saif 6-0.
"It wasn't a great game of snooker as there were a lot of balls missed but I'm very pleased to win," White said. "I'm ok in the balls and am scoring well but because of my foot injury, my practising has just been routines and I haven't been playing any matches.
"At 3-1 up I was in control of the match but then it went 3-3 and he touched a ball with his shirt and called a foul which was very honourable of him, and I then went 5-3 up. He won a good game to go 5-4 because he'd missed a couple of balls in that frame.
"I'm pleased to have got through to the next round because obviously I'm struggling to stay on the tour so there's a lot of pressure on me.
"I've got a few days left before my next match. I'm going to stay in York and put a bit of practice in with my coach Patsy Fagan, and hopefully I'll be in a bit more control next time."
Nigel Bond claimed a 6-3 victory over Craig Steadman. The former World Championship runner-up racked up the second-highest break of the tournament so far with a 129 on the way to a comfortable 6-3 win over world number 83 Steadman.
Graeme Dott beat fellow Scot Fraser Patrick 6-2, making two century breaks of 102 and 104, while Ali Carter - a semi-finalist last year - ousted Thai youngster Ratchayothin Yotharuck 6-1.
Judd Trump progressed to the second round with a 6-2 win over Gareth Green, Barry Hawkins whitewashed Alexander Ursenbacher 6-0 and Dave Harold downed Chen Zhe 6-1.
Meanwhile, Zhang Anda won 6-3 against Cao Yupeng in an all-Chinese affair, but Tony Drago's involvement in York was ended by Liu Chuang, who beat the former world number 10 6-1.

its so realistic and cute!!
omg is this clay? u'r super talented ^_^
This looks sooooo realistic! Cool. I bet your mom loved it.
What a beautifully crafted gift. She must have been overwhelmed. The detail is phenomenal.
Wow! I had to do a double take to see which group update this was for because these look so realistic I didn't think they were polymer clay. What a beautifully crafted gift. Great job!
They look beautiful! Your hard work definitely paid off, I'd say.
Oh my goodness <3 I love these so much!
Of course I like it! I can see you made it with great care, it's wonderful! ^_^
Oh wow - amazingly done Mel. I can see why these took longer than forever - but that's how long your Mom will love them too!
That's wonderful
How gorgeous! I bow down to your awesomeness.
Wow, this looks great! Are you going to be making some for 1:12? I've seen flowers sell pretty well at shows.
I might try that. I've been trying to make bigger scale things lately hehe. There are a few other flowers I've been wanting to try too, I've tried making Lilly of the Valley a couple times now (it's my favorite) but it isn't looking right yet haha. Flowers are so hard bah
I know that the people in my guild that make flowers make them out of tissue paper and floral wire. It's amazing what they can come up with, though. I kind of want to try it but the list of new craft stuff I want to do is so long already. :c
wow...just wow...
The paint on the edge of each petal really takes this to the next level! I hope your mom loves this!!
Ahhh~! Very gorgeous attention to detail. She better love it! x3
Oh wow! What a great gift, it looks amazing. So delicate.
Wow I can't believe they're made out of polymer clay!

I really am curious about something and this question is directed at the responders that did test ride for a while (off the shop property)....did you buy the exact bike you rode? Had it been test ridden before?
I really am curious about something and this question is directed at the responders that did test ride for a while (off the shop property)....did you buy the exact bike you rode? Had it been test ridden before?
In the Bike Business, I am!!!
At the end of the day, I don't really care, but we won't sell a demo bike as new. We had three Serotta demos which is basically what you ar buying unless the shop just does not sell many bikes. When we sold one it was discounted because while the groupset was brand new the frame had mileage on it and we wanted the customer to know.
If I am dropping several grand on a bike, order me a new one that has never been ridden.
We don't even sell seats that someone wanted to switch off a new bike at retail. They are not new even if they never had a butt on them.
I guess our customers are not that forgiving. We had road bikes that had a little dirt on the tires from a trip around the lot, and got all kinds of challenges on the "newness" of the bikes. Or if it is a little wet out and the bike gets dirty, back into the shop for a cleaning.

It's always good to get a discount on a floor model. However, I could definitely envision circumstances where the floor model is enough demand that you don't need to discount it, especially if it's a barely ridden model. Of course, it's easy enough to offer the customer the option to order a brand new one once they've test ridden, exactly as car dealers do.
Not sure what the confusion is here - if the car dealers can pull off regular test rides, from cheap to cars to luxury mobiles, all of which cost much, much more than bikes and experience much more wear on a test ride, there's no reason a properly run LBS can't do it. And while I agree that often hi-end customers don't really need a test ride, be it bike or car because they know EXACTLY what they want, I'd venture that the vast majority of other customers would feel much better with at least a ride. And yes, I know the bike fit issue is a real one that is a difference from cars - but you can still work with that without going crazy.
I'd want a fresh new one. But that is just me.

I'd also want a fresh new one, but that's a cinch for the LBS - just order the thing for the customer. No issue there whatsoever - customer knows they've got to wait for it to arrive, or take the floor model.
Climbs like a stone, descends like two...
It's not as bad as it seems - even with test rides, unless they're long 30+ mile jaunts which most LBSes will understandably NOT let you do with that shiny floor model, you really don't know what you'll ultimately think of the ride. Taking a short spin around the block is very different from how you'll feel at mile 100 of a hilly century. You just gotta go with it. I try to at least get a basic ride so I know if things are egregiously off, but other than that, it's a crapshoot.
I will say I ordered a caadx without a test ride but I did spin one around the parking lot to be sure of the size.
Climbs like a stone, descends like two...
I "test rode" on a trainer in the shop and had the bike fitted to me during that process, mirror, good fitter, all that. That was easy and very successful. I didn't need to take the bike onto the street. It was a fairly high end bike, 2nd from top. They had several sizes. The fitting was free and didn't take that long - I went with the stock bars.

I'm sure my next purchase will be different, but I'm glad both shops I dealt with were really cool about test rides. The Specialized shop knew me at this point and offered to let me take the Roubaix with me to the Trek shop so that I could ride both bikes over the same course. They were fine with it - i was uncomfortable with the idea.
But then again, as when I bought my last car, I'm told I'm different. I do so much online research and reading that by the time time I'm in your shop I know what questions I'm trying to answer and what information I need to make up my mind. I wouldn't wanna go take an S-Works Roubaix for a spin just to try out Di2 (although my shop wants me to do it) because I know it won't do what I need.
Test rides.....a luxury for the consumer I suppose...but I doubt you'd really find out anything unless you ride a bike for at least a few days. After all, especially with high end bikes, it's not like they are going to suck. The question is how you live with the bike; I find it takes living with a bike for a while to notice these finer points.
As a sales tool? I actually have come to appreciate stores with no test rides/no return policies. As a Canadian who moved to Taiwan, I was initially shocked by this. I plunked down $100K on a BMW...no test ride. A bike? Not even a question if one was available. The upside of this is that I actually do more research to make sure the item is exactly the one I really want/need because there is no going back. In addition, when I buy something here, it's new. Twice in the past six months my sister in Toronto has purchased fairly high-end home products (e.g. home espresso machine) only to find out that item had been used by a customer, returned to the store, repackaged and sold as new. I watched my Foil come together from a pile of parts; after the tech, I was the second person to ride my bike.
The other thing I would add....test rides for LBS are suicide. So a guy takes out a bike and absolutely loves it. Says thanks for the test ride, let me think about it. Goes home and orders the exact bike from the internet. So the LBS provides the service, the web gets the money.

In my experience, the ground rules for test rides are dry road conditions.I guess our customers are not that forgiving. We had road bikes that had a little dirt on the tires from a trip around the lot, and got all kinds of challenges on the "newness" of the bikes. Or if it is a little wet out and the bike gets dirty, back into the shop for a cleaning.
I appreciate your respect for your customers in wanting to sell new bikes that are truly new. But at least for where I am as a customer, I'd be unlikely to buy from your shop. Maybe at some later point I'd be the type who valued a pristine tire over the experience of a test ride. High end and mid-range (>$4k is what I'm thinking about, but choose your threshold) bikes are not all alike - they have different stiffnesses. Their chain stays are different lengths, their forks have more or less trail and so they handle differently and I don't think I'm alone in wanting that information before I take out my credit card.
It sounds like you know your business and your clientelle, but people like me maybe wouldn't be so well-served. I'm middle aged and comparatively new to cycling, so I can't rely on 30 years of experience around great machines and I haven't bought many expensive bikes before. But I'm serious about my riding, doing about 4000-7000 road miles/year. I can feel differences in how bikes handle without someone telling me, and I want to have that information before I purchase a bike that I will likely ride for 15000 miles or more.
And I'm glad you're eager to work with bike dealers and not show up for test rides in the middle of a big sale. It never fails, in the middle of our biggest sale of the season when we're sending a dozen bikes out the door per hour, some customers will insist we diagnose their creaky bottom bracket NOW.
Working for a bike dealer, my main job is making you happy with your purchase, regardless of where you buy it. And if you show up for the Saturday ride on a Giant you bought up the street, I'm going to say something like, "Giant makes very fine bikes. I'm sure you'll love it."

Plus most major brands can't be bought online anyway.
Climbs like a stone, descends like two...
Most of our customers walk in with a target price point and a margin. We'll show them bikes in the target zone and test the margin. If they're buyin' and not just kickin' tires, they don't want to waste their time and our time gawking at, talking about, and riding bikes that they know they can't afford.
Does that mean we hide our nice stuff? No, the Madone and Domane 6s are out front where you can see them, but we know there's a good chance we'll be ordering a couple more before the end of the season. Our road customers are usually looking for something to make their Ride the Rockies more enjoyable, so what's going to bring them in and sell them is the service agreement and a Scott CR1 or Bianchi Infinito that's in their size. Or, he'll take out a Madone 5 with Di2, say he loves it, and surprise us by asking us build him a Project One 6.
If they're looking for a Pinarello Dogma or a custom Pegoretti, they know who has them. The guy who wants to drop $8000 on one of these is not going to do it at a shop whose bread and butter is Trek 7.2 FXs.

I have been thinking about getting clip-ins. I ride to and from the gym almost every day and around town and although its convenient to wear normal shoes, I'm anxious to try clip-in pedals. It just seems like it's the natural thing to do eventually. Plus I'm planing to take an intro course at the LA velodrome very soon. What are some nice pedal brands out there? I have been looking at crank brothers.. those look really nice. What kind do you have? Any pros & cons? I'm not too concerened with cost if I'm getting a great product.
Thanks in advance

If you're all too willing to do something that could easily end in death...are you suicidal in a way?
It's not really suicidal, but it's like taking drugs.. it shows a careless disregard for life and health.
rarely does anyone think that it will apply to them (willing to play the odds) . . . like taking a medicine to relieve arthritis (that has been know to cause dearth) or sky-diving or race car driving . . . or just lack the fortitude to change a lifestyle of addiction like smoking, overeating, etc..
no, it's not suicidal. Maybe, he/she just would like to have something exciting than he/ she usually do.. or maybe he/she would just like to test physical/ emotional strength towards that stuff..
Its not really....Death is inevitable, sooner or later...but if what ever the cause of you doing what you say might end in death is a decision that makes you happy and fills you ....
Just stupid.

OU football: Box family establishes Austin Box '12' Foundation
Austin Box is far from forgotten in his family's home, as well as in his hometown of Enid.
The former Oklahoma linebacker died in May after ingesting a lethal amount of prescription drugs. Box's death has no doubt received a great deal of attention; his family would like to see that his life does, as well.
In the past month, the Boxes set up the Austin Box "12" Foundation. Its first function will be to award an annual college scholarship to an Enid High School senior.
Naturally, the grief of losing an only son and only brother has been staggering for the Boxes. But a sense of purpose is breaking through the pain, emerging through the foundation.
"There are times when you just don't want to do anything, but there are other times — most of the time, really — that you want to do things," said Craig, Austin's father. "I want his memory to stay alive, because I think he deserves that.
"It is, for the most part, very cathartic to talk about him and do things like this. It's difficult at times, but overall it's very positive."
Applications for the scholarship are due to the foundation by March 29. The recipient will receive $1,500 per semester for a total of $3,000. It will go to an Enid student-athlete with at least a 3.0 grade-point average.
There is one curious portion of the scholarship form: "Favorite Movie Quote & Movie."
See, that would have been right up Box's alley, considering he started rattling off movie quotes when he was a youngster. It is an illustration of an outgoing personality that often had his parents and siblings cracking up.
Adding that blank to the application was his old sister Whitney's idea. She often exchanged texts with Austin, speaking only in movie quotes.
She still does that with some of his former OU teammates.
"We didn't just want the same old form answers," said Whitney, a 27-year-old OU graduate who works in Enid's city planning department. "We wanted to really get to know a person."
Finalists for the scholarship will be interviewed by Whitney, as well as two of Austin's best friends, Matthew Athey and John Dillingham.
"They're going to have to bring their humor," Whitney said, laughing.
The family is hopeful the scholarship is only the beginning for the foundation. Whitney mentioned an eight-man football tournament and a 5K or marathon as possibilities for the coming months and years.
"This scholarship is one of the many things we want to do," Whitney said. "This is just the first step."
Austin is being remembered in other ways, as well. The community soon plans to unveil a granite bench in his honor at the entrance to Selby Stadium, where the Plainsmen football team plays. A memorial to his No. 7 will be erected there, as well as at David Allen Ballpark, where Austin starred on several American Legion baseball teams.
The family also wants to use the foundation as a vehicle for honest discussions with kids about the dangers of drug abuse. It's a difficult but necessary purpose due to their unique position, the Boxes said.
They plan to speak in classrooms and at various events in the community.
"It's important to us," Whitney said. "None of us believe Austin did anything knowingly to hurt himself. When you're 18-22, around that age, you feel invincible. You don't even realize the consequence of things. Even the slightest mistake can end really tragically.
"No one wants that to happen again. If our speaking to people can save a life, that would be amazing."

Update Notes

Update Notes
Updated on: 06/30/2015
Since we last visited LoveThePink...
Love The Pink is a nonexclusive solo site that lets you spy on spectacularly sexy babes who take a vibrator or dildo to their slits and go to town. Some are slender, others are curvier. There are brunettes working hot-pink vibrators in their vags, sultry blondes plowing their slits with big, black dongs and a few don't shy away from plunging the depths of their butts. (Would you still consider that the "pink?")
LoveThePink has 119 videos that come in Windows Media and MP4 files and offer mostly good-quality playback. You can download clips and full-length scenes for the WMVs. One thing I appreciate about the videos is their length. Sure, some of the earliest updates only give you about 12 minutes of action, but many are over 20. Whatever you get now might be all you can count on, though - nothing has been added since June 2014.
Often masturbation sites only give you scenes that are more like extended clips rather than actual movies, but you won't feel shortchanged by the footage on this site. Besides, with hot pornstars (like Silvia Saint) getting themselves off in multiple scenes, how can you really go wrong? And if you were going wrong, would you want to be right?
There are also 105 sets of pics that you can download in Zip files. You also have the option of viewing them in a hands-free slideshow, so you can join in on the girls' masturbating. These gals are truly gorgeous and the spreads showing them posing in sexy outfits and then slowly stripping and playing with their pussies are definitely enjoyable.
You get access to a ton of extra sites, like Big Tit Queens, Sex Toys Porno and Blowjobs Babes. They're all part of the All Porn Sites Pass network and feature a wide variety of niches. Just keep in mind that the sites overlap a lot, so often two sites with the same theme will simply be duplicates of each other.
Love The Pink has enough content to make it worth joining for a little while, even if you're not down with the bonuses. If you can look past the lack of exclusive content and the fact that updating has seemingly stopped, you'll have a good time watching these lovely ladies take themselves to orgasm - that's a lot of "ifs" though.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

- $89 for one Brazilian blowout treatment ($250 value)
- $169 for two Brazilian blowout treatments ($500 value)
Treatments are available from stylists Gladys Olmedo or Noy Olmedo at Hairsculptor.com
Learn more about what's going on beneath the surface of your strands during this treatment with Groupon's examination of keratin treatments.
Keratin Treatments: Microscopic Mane Maintenance
Keratin is the molecular building block of human beauty—without this fibrous protein, humans wouldn't have nails hard enough to polish, tooth enamel sturdy enough to withstand weekly brushings, or hair lush enough to style. Within each strand of hair, chains of keratin can be arranged in different molecular patterns, and this variation is what gives each head of hair its unique texture. For those who find their hair's unique texture a pain to deal with every morning, those keratin bonds can be chemically rearranged with popular salon treatments such as Brazilian Blowout or Keratin Complex.
Stylists apply a keratin-rich solution that finds its way into each hair's second layer, where it can chemically reprogram hair from an unruly, cigarette-smoking strand into a well-behaved member of the scalp's society. The heat of a flatiron straightens hair after the serum's application so that as the keratin molecules fuse to each strand, they'll do so in the right position. Methylene glycol or formalin—which release formaldehyde under heat—typically function as the glue bonding the molecules during and after treatment. The result of all this chemistry is a straighter and smoother look that can last for two months or longer, and, although any heat-based treatment can be taxing on hair, its fortifying effects tend to leave hair glossier and more voluminous than other relaxers do. So although frizz disappears, waves or loose curls can continue to cascade across the shoulders.
Hairsculptor.com's salon team may be smaller than most—only four stylists—but among them, they boast nearly a century and a half of experience. They've narrowed their expertise primarily to two services: hair extensions and Brazilian Blowouts. For extensions, they use ventilated wefts with a half-inch thickness that allow them to use less overall pieces. These pieces are braided in by hand, which generally results in less damage to natural hair than glued or bonded extensions. And because they're 100% human hair, they can be dyed to match any color.
The stylists are also certified in Brazilian Blowouts, a smoothing treatment that reduces frizz for up to 12 weeks or until you move to the Sun. The results can be better maintained with the salon's collection of branded shampoos, conditioners, and styling products.

Man nabbed in drug sweep sentencedSeptember 05,2013Man sentenced
after drug sweep
SPRINGFIELD The first of three dozen suspected drug dealers arrested in Junes Operation Precision Valley sweep was sentenced Tuesday.
Joseph Morin, 30, of Springfield received a series of concurrent sentences of one to two years after pleading guilty to three felony counts of selling a narcotic and a misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct.
Detectives from the Vermont Drug Task Force said that on three separate occasions in April they arranged sting operations in which a police informant bought methadone tablets or prescription Tylenol 3 pills from Morin.
Speaking after the sentencing, Deputy States Attorney David Cahill said Morins sentence is likely to be relatively light compared to the other suspects because most of them are accused of selling harder drugs such as heroin and crack cocaine.
The disorderly conduct charge stemmed from an incident in the middle of South Street on May 10. Witnesses told police that Morin and another man showed knives during a heated argument.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON Many of Americas young adults appear to be in no hurry to move out of their old...
