The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is pleased to welcome Govinda Gallery Founder and Director Chris Murray for the FREE monthly program From Songwriters to Soundmen: The People Behind the Hits on Wednesday, September 15 at 7 p.m. in the Rock Hall's Foster Theater. This event is presented in conjunction with the opening of the Rock Hall's latest exhibit ELVIS 1956: Photographs by Alfred Wertheimer, which was organized in cooperation with Govinda Gallery, Washington D.C.
Jim Henke, the Rock Hall's vice president of education exhibitions and curatorial affairs, will moderate the evening, in which Murray will discuss these iconic photographs as well as his curation of the ELVIS 1956 exhibit. Questions will be taken from the audience at the end of the interview.
This event is FREE with a reservation. Please email email@example.com or call (216) 515-8426 to RSVP. This event will not be live streamed on RockHall.com.
Christopher Murray is the founder and director of Govinda Gallery in Washington, DC. Since 1975, Govinda Gallery has established itself as one of the most innovative, contemporary galleries in the United States. Govinda Gallery originally became known for exhibiting many of the nation's leading pop artists. Murray enjoyed a close personal and professional friendship with Andy Warhol for over fifteen years until the time of the artist's death. Through his association with Warhol, Murray came to know and exhibit many of the nation's leading artists during the late 70s and early 80s.
In 1984, Murray hosted the first exhibition of celebrated photographer Annie Leibovitz at Govinda Gallery. That exhibition featured Leibovitz's work as chief photographer for Rolling Stone magazine. Since that time, the Govinda Gallery has developed as the leading gallery in the world representing and exhibiting photographs related to contemporary music. Murray has organized more than 200 major exhibitions of paintings, drawings, and photographs and has received critical accolades in Rolling Stone magazine, The Washington Post, USA Today, The International Herald Tribune, American Photo, and Vanity Fair. Murray also wrote the introduction to the book Elvis 1956 (2009), which was published on the occasion of the Smithsonian traveling exhibition, Elvis at 21.
"From Songwriters to Soundmen: The People Behind the Hits" gives Rock Hall audiences an inside look at aspects of the music business that are often concealed from view.
For those who wonder how songs become recordings, how recordings become hits, or how the show gets on the road, this series offers both answers and anecdotes beyond imagination.
From label executives to producers to guitar techs, the music industry is populated with remarkable characters who have equally remarkable stories to tell. If many of us know a whole lot about the stars, too few among us know about the folks who work alongside the stars, who discover stars, who direct the careers of stars, who produce their songs.

Spotlight for Career Services ProfessionalsSpotlight for Recruiting ProfessionalsNovember 13, 2013
Life insurance, medical insurance,
and 401(k) retirement plans are the benefits and policies most
often offered by employers to Class of 2014 college graduates,
according to results from NACE's Job Outlook
2014 survey.
Nearly all of the employers
responding to the survey indicated they will offer life insurance,
medical insurance, and 401(k) retirement plans to their new hires.
Most respondents also noted they will offer annual salary increases,
dental insurance, and an employee assistance/counseling program.
(See Figure 1.)
While the benefits and policies that
employers offer new college graduates are generally consistent from
year to year, there are two notable changes from last year. Four
out of five respondents to the current survey are offering
bonus/commission plans—up from just under 70 percent—and a larger
percentage are offering flextime.
NACE collected data for the Job
Outlook 2014 survey from its college recruiting
professional members from August 5 through September 13,
2013.A total of 208 surveys were returned for a response rate
of 19.8 percent. The Job Outlook 2014 report is
available at www.naceweb.org/surveys/job-outlook.aspx or through the MyNACE area of NACEWeb.

Yale Clinches Ivy League Volleyball Title With Sweep At Princeton
The Yale women's volleyball team clinched the Ivy League title and automatic bid to the NCAA tournament Saturday night with a 3-0 sweep of Princeton during Senior Night for the Tigers.
Yale moved to 12-0 on the Ivy League season with a 25-20, 25-16, 28-26 victory over the Tigers, who remain alone in second place with a 9-3 league mark.
Senior Lydia Rudnick, the Ivy League leader in kills and points, recorded 11 kills, eight digs and four blocks in her final home match at Dillon Gym, while both sophomore Sarah Hanna and freshman Kendall Peterkin added nine kills apiece. Freshman Sarah Daschbach led the defense with 15 digs, while sophomore Ginny Willis recorded 36 assists to lead the offense.
Princeton is now 12-10 on the season, and it will conclude its season on the road next weekend with matches at Cornell and Columbia.

American Music Masters Moments: Fats Domino and Dave Bartholomew is the second installment in a series that shares stories from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's American Music Masters® events through the years. The first post in the series remembered Les Paul. Beginning in 1996 with a tribute to Woody Guthrie, the American Music Masters series has honored artists who've been instrumental in the development of rock and roll with a range of events celebrating their careers. Each AMM brings together musicians from around the world, setting the stage for special, once-in-a-lifetime moments. These are those stories.
For me, the best part of American Music Masters is hearing first-hand stories from the musicians who worked with the honoree. They tell fascinating stories about recording sessions, concerts and late-night card games. When we honored Fats Domino and Dave Bartholomew last year, we were able to bring the surviving members of their original band to town: Billy Diamond (bass), Ernest McLean (guitar), and Herb Hardesty (saxophone). It had been years since they all were together, and listening to them sitting around, reminiscing with Dave Bartholomew and Cosimo Matassa, who recorded them all at J&M Studies in New Orleans, was a highlight of the week.
This week we received the sad news that Billy Diamond had passed away in Los Angeles. In addition to playing bass, Diamond was the road manager for the band. He also gave Antoine Domino the nickname "Fats." He remembered every Cleveland venue that the band played in the 1950s: "I like to take care of the money." It's so important to get these stories on tape for posterity. Rest in peace, Billy Diamond – it was an honor to meet you and your daughter Tracie.
This year, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum pays tribute to Aretha Franklin, including an interview with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Spooner Oldham, who played keyboards on Aretha Franklin's first five albums for Atlantic Records: I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You, Aretha Arrives, Lady Soul, Aretha Now and Soul '69; and interviews with Cissy Houston and Bernard Purdie, both long-time friends and collaborators of Franklin's. For more information about the exciting week of events, click here.

text: This past Sunday, Washington Square was home to the first Urban Flea Market which will be held one Sunday every month through October 2011. Before the market opened, vendors were pulling up to the curb to unload their various treasures from antique kitchenware and vintage scarves to handmade floral headbands and timeless Bettie Page dresses. The market opened to the public at 9 am and the flow of shoppers continued right up until closing at 3 pm. As I strolled around the square listening to KRCL's playlist including classics from Johnny Cash and Van Morrison, I could not help but to people watch. The market brought in an eclectic group of vendors and shoppers from families to older couples, all on the lookout for that hidden gem. After speaking with the local vendors, it was clear that everyone involved felt it was a success and the vendor slots are already filling up for the next one, August 14th. So, if you are looking for a new date idea or just an opportunity for some quality family time, check out the next few Urban Flea markets!

ZF-4924: Zend_Amf_Server setClass ignores additional arguments passed as argv
The method setClass($class, $namespace = '', $argv = null) of Zend_Amf_Server ignores the third argument which should be used to pass additional arguments to the later called method.
Current source code Zend/Amf/Server.php line 394: if (3 < func_num_args()) {
Since the number of arguments is equal 3 if additional arguments are passed as $argv the test should be modified to: if (2 < func_num_args()) {
I was able to recreate this issue. The count is 3 in order to add arguments but it is a base zero count so it needs to be 2. 0-1-2 to check that arguments were passed.
I have checked in this issue to the 1.7.0 trunk to close this bug.

Men's Tennis Wins ECAC Opener, Defeats Dartmouth
The Princeton men's tennis team won its opening match over Dartmouth Friday morning 4-1 to advance in the ECAC Championship hosted by Cornell.
Princeton, the tournament's third seed of eight teams, will face the tournament's second seed, Columbia, at 3 p.m. Saturday.
"For an 8 a.m. match I thought we prepared well and came out ready to play," Princeton coach Billy Pate said. "Dartmouth is a very good team and we knew they would pose a challenge in each spot. As it normally is, the key was getting off to a good start with the doubles. Dan (Richardson) had a good win over a guy he had lost to last year. Zack (McCourt) played well and came through in a tight second set to clinch the fourth point."
Columbia has dominated the series of late with Princeton, as the current Tigers are 1-2 against the Lions, winning in 2011, and Princeton has been without back-to-back wins against Columbia since 2002 and 2003. The 2002 meeting was the last time Princeton defeated Columbia away from the Princeton campus.
"Tomorrow will be another tough challenge with Columbia," Pate said. "They have strong doubles and good balance in each of the their singles positions. We expect a great match and we'll certainly need to be sharp."
Princeton, ranked 64th in the nation on this week's ITA list, picked up its second win over a ranked team in just four matches played this season by defeating the 59th-ranked Big Green.

Johnson City, Tenn. -- The East Tennessee State men's tennis team kicks off their 2001 Spring season on the weekend of January 26 and 27th.
Coming off a perfect 10-0 Southern Conference regular-season in 2000, the Bucs will face William & Mary on January 26 at the Fort Sanders-West Racquet Club and Kentucky on January 27 at the Cedar Bluff Racquet Club in Knoxville, Tennessee.
The Bucs will be led by last year's Southern Conference Player of the Year, senior Gustavo Gomez who finished with a 27-11 overall singles record last season.
All-Southern Conference performers Marcos Palvovich, Juan Yannuzzi and Roberto Fernandez, who all posted at least 24 singles wins last season, will also be returning for the 2001 campaign.

Before he was a thespian, Eric Jensen really wanted to play college ball but says he had the "triple threat."
"I was slow, couldn't jump, and I was white—so I didn't make any college basketball or football teams," he says. Instead, he nailed an audition for an acting scholarship to Utah State University and soon realized he had a love, and knack, for comedy.
Now, Jensen—who started the now not-for-profit Off Broadway Theatre in 1994 with his wife Sandy— writes, directs and plays the comic relief in many of the theater's signature spoof plays and leads the theater's comedy improv team.
Catering to local audiences, Jensen's plays are rife with jokes about Utah culture—like a group of vampire hunters talking about stakes to kill Dracula and calling it a "stake conference." The plays are also filled with current pop culture references, but Jensen says he tries to write them to last. "Our Glee parody is written so you can insert different titles and characters in the future," he says. "It's really about high school kids with problems, and that theme will be around forever."
The theater is also home to Utah's longest-running improv comedy team, Laughing Stock. The troupe has an arsenal of improvisation games to play for audiences and involves the crowd by using people as props and encouraging guests to shout storyline suggestions to the actors.
Jensen lives in Farmington with his wife and 14-year-old son Austinn, who also star in some of his plays. "Austinn's ability to memorize things is sharper than mine," Jensen says. When Jensen isn't working on a production, he teaches drama and plans be become a full-time instructor eventually.
Greece is the Word, Jensen's parody of Grease set in ancient Greece, runs May 18 to June 16. Laughing Stock is held every Friday and Saturday at 10 p.m. The theater is located at 272 S. Main St., SLC. For more info visit theobt.org.

Ainsi la nuit
Malibran String Quartet
The Malibran String Quartet is made up of Belgian violinist Jolente De Maeyer, violinist Tatiana Samouil, viola player Tony Nys and cellist Justus Grimm. Catch them in two ravishing and quintessentially French string quartets, each of which is its composer's only attempt at the genre. The first is Henri Dutilleux' Ainsi la nuit, a seven-part composition from 1977 that feels at once still and oddly animated, recalling the teeming nocturnal worlds of Van Gogh and Baudelaire, two artists who happen to loom large in Dutilleux's personal pantheon. His greatest debt, however, is to impressionistic composers like Debussy and Ravel, whose achingly beautiful Quartet in F major makes up the second part of the concert.

Released on my 19th birthday!!! Thanks for the b-day present of a lifetime Lu. Im more excited for the Album than my actual birthday lol. Dont worry ill be sure to buy the CD, none of that iTunes, Limewire nonsense. Generation Lasers!!!!!!!!
As much as we'd all love to have this album this year, I am glad that it truly is official this time. Hail to the greatest rapper of our generation.
Lupe you needa leave Atlantic Records ASAP............ IM F*CKING PISSED THEY DELAYED UR ALBUM ANOTHER F*CKING YEAR.......WTF MAN!!! alot of my friends and im sure ur fans around the world are pissed too!!
YYYEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i cant wait!!! hopefully the date will be moved up but at least its comin out for sure :DDD
Ridiculous date, seeing how it was suppose to be released December last year. Are the stillbdoing the protest? They should just to show we're still pissed at Atlantic.
I haven't logged on this site in a WHILE...smh. Yay! I'm happy to hear that there's an actual date, but I'm not completely sold on the fact that it's gonna come out on that date. I still think that people should show up to these protests just to show support for Lupe and show Atlantic that we want Lupe's album. Even though I won't be there physically, I'll be there in spirit :-) let's gooooo!
copy jay-z make your fingers a piramid, and add some cool lyrics like the friends you ars-lick all teh time ''Diamonds bluish, biz manager's Jewish And if I get sued, my lawyers Jews'' add some of that and like the jay-z said your was good ''Flow tight like I was born Jewish'' put some of those lines, than you don't have to worry about your money whether 'atlantic' is going to make 25% out of every deal you have (aka selling yourself) 'If Money Is Nothing Why Is It An Issue When You Rhyme? MONEY IS NOTHING, can't take it with you when your DIE' ?????
I am very glad to hear this, I was going to protest in downtown Chicago, and cause a mass riot for Atlantic records for not supporting Lupe Fiasco, or releasing his record. I love music and this is what I live for, I took personally offense when my music i need to build myself up from is not being released.
Im not the only one who thinks a march release is bs for an album thats already done. Follow lasersb4march and we can continue making noise towards atlantic because I think WE ALL KNOW come march they will just delay it AGAIN and hope we forget. THE TIME IS NOW! I want to listen to the great american rap album or food and liquior by july next year so we need lasers out ASAP!
HELL YEAH!!!! BOUT FREAKIN TIME!!!! Aye, like the Lasers manifesto says: "we will not lose because we are not losers, we are lasers." Lupe wins...for now, but Atlantic betta not pull this again with The Great American Rap Album.
SUCH A LONG TIME AWAY.... finally those money hungry bastards released it after 2 years. Drop friend of the people so we dont die of anticipation!

Use Web of Science Databases to Find Highly Cited Articles
Run time: 05:17 | Requires Flash Player. | Transcript
(object placeholder)
Welcome to this Information and Library Services tutorial on using Web of Science databases to find highly cited articles on a topic. This tutorial will take about five minutes to review.
The three Web of Science databases that the UMUC library subscribes to are Arts & Humanities Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded, and Social Sciences Citation Index. These databases can be used to find highly cited articles about a given topic.
This can be a useful step in identifying seminal works -- that is, works of historical importance that have influenced other researchers.
You may access the library's Web of Science databases by going to the library's home page and then clicking on the "Research Databases" link.
On the Research Databases page, click on the "W" link and then click on "Web of Science."
As with other UMUC library databases, you will need to log in with your last name and either your 7-digit EMPL ID or your 14-digit library barcode number.
From the main Web of Science page, you may then select the database or databases that you wish to search. As you may suspect from their names, Arts & Humanities Citation Index contains citation information for journals in the arts and humanities. Science Citation Index Expanded contains citation information for journals in the hard sciences, such as biology, chemistry, computer science, and math. And Social Sciences Citation Index contains citation information for journals in the social and behavioral sciences, such as education, management, psychology, and sociology.
You may also go straight to the particular Web of Science database that you want to search by clicking on the appropriate link on the library's "Research Databases" page.
For the purposes of this demonstration, we will be searching in Social Sciences Citation Index for articles about strategic management. Note that the words "strategic management" have been put between quotation marks so that the database will search for these words as a phrase -- that is, the database will search for articles in which these words appear together, and in the order specified.
As you can see, our search retrieved thousands of articles that have been written about this broad topic. Search results are sorted by default by latest date, which means that the articles that were entered into the database most recently will show up first in your search results list.
But note that you can re-sort your search results by a variety of criteria, including times cited. Re-sorting your search results by times cited will show you the most highly cited articles on your topic.
In this case, the most highly cited article, "Dynamic capabilities and strategic management," has been cited over 2000 times, which indicates that this article has had an influence on researchers writing on the topic of strategic management.
You can click on the title of an article to find more information about it.
Note that you will see both a times cited link and a references link. You can click on these links to see a list of all of the articles that cited this article as well as a list of all the articles that were cited in this article. You may be able to find additional relevant articles on your topic this way.
Because the Web of Science databases are citation databases rather than full-text databases, you will never find PDF links in these databases. But you may use the "find it" button to see whether a full-text version of an article is available from another UMUC library database.
In this case, full text of this article is available from several UMUC library databases. You may click on the link for any of the databases to be taken to that database, where you may access the full text of the article.
Back on the search results page, notice that another option that's available to you is "Analyze Results." You can use this link to see the author who's published the most articles on your topic or the journal that's published the most articles on your topic, etc.
For example, to see which author has published the most articles on the topic of strategic management, we can select to rank search results by author. We'll analyze up to 5000 records since this will analyze all of our search results. We'll leave the other settings as is -- we'll look at the top 10 results, and we'll say that an author has to have written at least 2 articles to be included in our results. We'll sort our results by the number of articles written.
After clicking on "Analyze," we can see that the author who's written the most articles about strategic management has written 28 articles on this topic.
We can then take a look at the articles that this author has written by checking the box next to his name and then clicking on view records.
Going back to the search results page, note that you can also create a citation report for your search results.
This shows you how many articles were published on the topic of strategic management in the last 20 years, as well as how many times the articles were cited. This information can give you an idea of the popularity of this topic over time.
If you have any questions about how to use the Web of Science databases, please visit the library's Web site and use the "Ask a Librarian" options to contact us.
Thank you for viewing this tutorial!

No Winter 'Brake' For Boulder B-cycle
Submitted by 303admin on
No Winter 'Brake' For Boulder B-cycle!
The Red Bikes will be rolling this winter - Ride on!
In its second winter of bike-sharing, Boulder B-cycle has decided to stay open for its users all winter. This is in contrast to last year's first winter in which they closed from mid-December through mid-March.
"We were given a lot of encouragement to stay open," says interim Executive Director, Bob Koenig. "There was a chorus of support from all types of users: workers and students who use our bikes for their 'last mile' commute, the downtown errand-runners and lunch-hour recreational riders, locals who enjoy rides with their out-of-town guests, and of course our wonderful sponsors and City/County supporters."
Boulder B-cycle kept 2 UCAR B-Stations open last winter to test the docks and bikes against winter weather conditions; many of the B-Stations are solar-power operated. "We passed the test with flying colors," says Koenig, "neither the cold temperatures nor cloudy days interrupted our service."
UCAR's Sustainability Outreach Coordinator, Kay Gazaway, said "Last winter worked really well for us having 2 B-Stations operating for our 2 campus locations; our employees used the red bikes all winter long without a glitch. And now that all B-Stations will be open throughout the area, we have an alternative transportation system for wherever we want to go in the City; we're thrilled!"
Two New B-stations
Boulder B-cycle will open two new B-stations in November: Broadway & Iris and 33rd & Fisher (next to the Boulder County Clerk and Recorder's Office). These stations are supported by Boulder County for their employees and visitors and bring the total Station count to 21. Boulder B-cycle launched in May 2011 with 12 Stations.
"We are very excited and proud to be opening new B-Cycle stations at two of our busiest public service locations," Boulder County Commissioner Will Toor said. "Thousands of residents and county employees travel to these locations every week, and thanks to an excellent partnership with B-Cycle, we are able to provide a fun, healthy and efficient way to get there."
Since B-cycle's launch in May of 2011, the Boulder Community and Visitors have experienced:
- Over 40,000 total trips
- 64,000 miles ridden
- Nearly 4 million calories burned
- 47 tons of carbon emission saved
- 3,100 gallons of gasoline saved
About Boulder B-cycle:
Boulder B-cycle is our community's nonprofit bike share system; we provide day users and annual members with bikes where and when they need them. B-cyclists can pick up, ride and drop off shared bikes at stations all over town. The program launched on May 20, 2011, and has become part of a growing national trend in active transportation. Boulder B-cycle believes that bicycles should be a vehicle for positive health and environmental change and an important part of a community's transportation system.

Mindi Henderson with "Bella's truck" in Forks, Washington
Henderson is a Twihard, a nickname given to Twilight's biggest fans. It's not an easy path.
"People act like it's something to be embarrassed about," she says. "It's become this shameful thing." Friends have told her Twilight author Stephenie Meyer is a bad writer; that her favorite character, Bella, is weak. They have criticized the series for not following "vampire rules" about sunlight, crosses and mirrors. But one of the most common criticisms older fanatics of Twilight, The Hunger Games and Harry Potter hear is that they are just too old for it.
"Some people are just button pushers," Henderson says. "I have a friend that's 72, and she comes to midnight releases with us."
But, says Anne Jamison, a University of Utah English professor, there's no such thing as too old, even when the books are targeted at tweens. "People like reading stories about things they can relate to, and these adult readers have been teenagers," she says.
The question is: Why are older Utahns in particular so crazy about young adult fiction?
According to the 2010 Census, Utah has the youngest median age and the largest households in the nation. At The King's English bookstore, Neville says parents buy books their kids are reading to make sure they're age appropriate, then often get interested in the stories themselves. On top of that, Neville says a lot of the authors of these books are from Utah. "And a lot of them are on the national stage," she notes.
Shannon Hale was the first Utah author to be recognized by the Newbery Committee for her book Princess Academy, and Utah is home to bestselling authors like James Dashner, who wrote The Maze Runner, and Jessica Day George, who wrote the Dragon Slippers trilogy and Princess of the Midnight Ball. Local author Ally Condie was a featured author at BYU's Symposium on Books for Young Readers last July, alongside well-known novelists Nic Bishop and Jack Gantos. Meanwhile BYU, the University of Utah and Westminster College all offer courses for English majors on young adult fiction, encouraging more local authors to enter the fray.
But it was Twilight, Neville says, that put Utah's young adult fiction scene on the map. And much of its popularity here can be traced to author Stephenie Meyer's Mormon roots. Deseret Book, a bookstore chain owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, carried the series for a time, and even after the fourth book came out with mixed reviews about Edward and Bella consummating their marriage, customers could special order the book.
Some readers say they see parallels between the Twilight series and Mormon doctrine.
"I totally notice it," says Henderson. "I know it's not supposed to be a religious book, but the way Bella becomes perfect in the end [of the fourth book, Breaking Dawn], how her capacity to see and feel and all her senses are expanded—that seems like it's based on Mormon doctrine. We're taught that we're celestial beings, and I think that's what it would be like reaching our full potential."
While Henderson says it might just be a coincidence, Christine Seifert, author of the young adult book The Predicteds and an English professor at Westminster College, also sees hints of Meyer's Mormon faith in Twilight. "It's not a completely LDS notion, but the idea in Twilight of a true love and finding that person against all odds speaks to people here," she says, equating the idea to the Church's doctrine of eternal marriage. About three years ago, Seifert wrote an article for feminist pop culture magazine Bitch on Twilight's soaring popularity and the new genre in young adult fiction she says it started, which she dubs "abstinence porn," or the lack of sex in an intense romance story. "I never meant for it to be a critique of readers or the books," she says. "But the books set up this idea that relationships revolve around sex."
Online, the article has more than 400 comments, many in protest of Seifert's claim. "This book is not about social issues today," says one commenter. "It's about a male vampire and a human girl who fall in love. It's not realistic, no one is going to go home and be like 'Oh, well, when I fall in love with a vampire…' It's not real. Period."
Seifert wrote the article when Breaking Dawn had just hit shelves, and she noticed the number one talking point among fans was whether Bella and Edward would have sex. "Edward and Bella really don't have a deeper connection with each other," she says. "Largely, the books focus on their physical attraction and that can be dangerous for young readers."
She says her focus is on the idea that abstinence becomes a turning point in the book—whether or not Bella will lose her virginity to Edward is contingent on her later becoming a vampire. "And once she becomes a vampire, there's the point of no return," she says. "That's a really dangerous place to put girls, where your identity hinges on your virginity."
And in Utah, Seifert says it's no wonder so many female fans relate to Bella. Women in the state tend to marry an average of three and a half years earlier than the rest of the nation and have limited sexual experience, often a reflection of the Mormon faith.
"The popular culture around them is so sexualized, and they are trying to resist that," Seifert says. "Likewise, Bella is tempted by Edward, but she has to resist. He reminds her of that, which also sets him up as the guardian of her chastity."

A couple BIG guys that are gonna fight hard. A lifeguard that looks stupid as all hell (He will be the next Frank)
I'm in. I am sure I will end up rooting for another person that loses :(
I didn't even know this show was still on.

Love the show, but glad they are changing it up a bit with nominating 3 instead of just 2.
I've never seen BB. I used to work with a guy who salivated over it. Should I give it a shot?

It's a good show. Give it a shot if it's something you think you'd like.
I watched the first season. for about 3 shows. I was in high school then and reality TV was still new. From what i've seen online, the euro versions are better anyway.

This Thing REALLY works - 08/09/2010
by Janet from Cottage Grove

The 48th annual Christmas in Odessa rung in the holiday season Saturday with hundreds of people flocking to the historic down town area of the small town.
Several of the historic houses, including the Davis Store and the Wilson Warner House were open for tours.
There were Christmas greens for sale and other holiday décor at the Christmas re-sale shop.
Boy Scouts from Troop 123 in St. Georges helped Teresa Baker sell Christmas greens as a part of a service project.
"The boys carried stuff to cars, helped with the historic houses, and were basically free labor for the stay," said Hunter Nicholas, assistant scoutmaster. "It teaches the boys service."

ZF-6680: Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach(), getopt.php line 609
This is extremely minor, but Zend_Console_Getopt throws a warning if you pass a null as the first argument of the constructor (indicating your command line script doesn't take any flags), and then call parse():
Code Sample:
$opts = new Zend_Console_Getopt(null); $opts->parse();
If you call it without arguments (e.g. 'myscript.php') it works fine, but with an invalid argument (e.g. 'myscript.php -x') it will print a warning:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in Zend/Console/Getopt.php on line 609
Fixed with the issue ZF-9756.

How would you rank Olivia Munn?
What other guys thought:
Watch the video
Why is Olivia Munn desirable?
Straight out of a nerd's wet dream comes Olivia Munn. The devoted gamer and former Attack of the Show host has an indisputably banging bod and has been known to dabble in cosplay. But you don't have to be a nerd to appreciate her roles in The Newsroom and shows like New Girl.

There's something silly about feeling that women aren't allowed to feel sexy, or to play it up.

Pin, Gagarin Head
Pins or znachki have a long and established Russian tradition. During the 19th century, workers received these pins as a reward for work done. It was during the Soviet period that the emphasis on the use of znachki shifted from rewarding work done to acting as souvenirs of national celebrations. By the late 1960s, schoolchildren began to collect and exchange the pins with foreigners. Today, space-themed znachki are popular among collectors worldwide. People of all ages wear the pins to celebrate and acknowledge anniversaries, programs and individuals of the space program.
This pin recognizes Cosmonautics Day, April 12, the anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's flight in 1961.
Found in collection. Donor unknown at this time. Found on NASM premises.

text: I really hate when people say, "Oh, okay, we'll meet and such and such time. Be there." And then they don't show up, or they're there but busy and you can't interrupt to tell them that it's time. I was supposed to meet the school counselor and one of the teachers to talk about the problems I was having with the school, but it's been ten minutes past the time she specified and they're in the middle of a meeting. I can't very well barge in but it really pisses me off that they told me to meet at 2:15 for a meeting that THEY SUGGESTED, not ME, and then they blow me off. Fucking morons.

Tonight was the inaugural community pep rally for the Apopka-Wekiva high schools' football game. What a hoot!
The event was the idea of the events committee of the Apopka Area Chamber of Commerce. The group wanted to do something to celebrate our two high schools and create an annual event that brings groups from both schools together.
The city donated the use of Kit Land Nelson Park and both schools promoted the event. All told probably a couple hundred people came to show their team spirit. Students from each school participated in a series of potato-themed contests, such as "Toss a greasy potato," "Roll a potato with your nose," and "Dunking for potatoes." There were also cheerleader displays and the drum lines from each band performed.
It was a fantastic start to what will be an annual tradition. Enjoy the photos below of the event.

Dr. Phillips athletic director John Magrino said via e-mail the school's standout wide receiver Chris Gallon will not compete this Friday in a Class 6A region semifinal against Oak Ridge at home.
No specific reason was given as to why or how long Gallon would not play. Magrino said he could not comment further on the matter. It is unclear whether or not Gallon will attend the game.
Gallon, 18, was ruled eligible to compete for the Dr. Phillips football team (11-0) before the season, but his playing status was again questioned after court documents showed a Seminole County address. The state attorney's office filed charges against Gallon and prosecutors also filed charges against five unnamed underage teammates with two misdemeanor charges of battery and hazing after a freshman player was hospitalized shortly after a locker room altercation.
Gallon has been ordered to appear in court Dec. 21. State semifinals for Class 6A begin Dec. 10.
Gallon has no prior record so it is possible, should a deal be worked out, the case could be dropped by prosecutors.
It's a really sad situation for all these young people involved, the victim and defendants. To think this is what they're dealing with around the holidays just makes it all the more unsettling.
Stay tuned for more details on orlandosentinel.com/sports and Sentinel Sports Now.

I have a secret:I am a hoarder.Not in the gross house full of junk sense, but I have kept every single piece of clothing, shoe, sock, and bib that has ever graced Charlie's tiny body.Now at 14 months I'm beginning to realize that this can't go on forever.
Storage is hard to come by at my house and I'm not planning to have another child anytime soon.Luckily, this week a friend sent me a link with some darling framed baby clothes.What a fun idea!I began searching for more unique ways to save Charlie's little treasures and have been really surprised and excited by what I have found!
I love this trio of framed heirloom baby pieces.What a fun way to decorate a nursery!
This super chic idea is from Martha Stewart.I love this project because it is a simple DIY art project which I always love!Simply lay your baby's treasures on this inexpensive light sensitive paper to create these bright-blue sun prints.So fun and easy, and the baby clothes remain intact for future little ones.
I have always been a huge fan of collage and am absolutely in love with this fun craft project by Alexa Alett.She had her daughter choose her favorite dresses, pajamas and shirts, and created this adorable collage of mini-dresses.This would be adorable in a children's room, nursery or powder room.
I've always loved the idea of using my son's clothes to create a custom baby quilt.Unfortunately sewing is not one of my strong-points, so I was excited to find the baby quilt kit by Ticche and Bea.The best part of this quilt is that you don't have to know how to sew.Simply order the kit, cut out the squares, and send it back to have the quilt pieced by a pro.
This beautiful activity book was very lovingly created by a mother for her little one.What a wonderful way to recycle clothing and create something beautiful and meaningful to enjoy with your child.I can imagine that the memories created while enjoying this book will be as special as the memories of the clothes used to make it.
Who would think that this adorable pillow was made from baby clothes!I've seen several pillows and stuffed animals that mommies have crafted for their little darlings, but this one is by far the sweetest.This pillow is so lovely and is such a great way to preserve those special tiny duds.

"I loved this drink. I made my own chocolate milk with nonfat milk and that worked very well because I could put as little or as much chocolate as I wanted in it!"
Reviewed Dec. 9, 2013
"I called this drink chocolate milk on steroids. For me personally, way too much chocolate flavor. Almost to the point where it overpowered the coffee flavor."
Reviewed Aug. 27, 2013
"Great refreshing drink! So easy to make, but make sure you have something to put it in!"
Reviewed Aug. 19, 2012
"Haven't made the recipe yet, but it sounds good. I am diabetic and 41 g of carbs equals almost 3 carbs. I am allowed 4 carbs for lunch and dinner so 3 carbs is a lot for diabetics who count carbs. However I am going to try this and perhaps serve myself just half, if i can."

Reviews for White Chocolate Pumpkin Cheesecake with Almond Topping
"I thought this cake lacked a distinct flavor. I know that pumpkin is a subtle flavor but I expected to have it more defined. I liked the almond topping. It was tasty and added a nice touch."
"Can this be made in a 9 by 13 pan instead?"
"This cheesecake was super yummy! I chilled it in the fridge overnight before freezing, to ensure the crust didn't go soggy when I thawed it. Also I didn't use gingersnaps cuz didn't have any, did a graham cracker crust instead and it was fine. The taste was so yummy - the pumpkin flavour wasn't too strong and you could really taste the spices."
"I make this cheesecake at least 2 to 3 times a year!! My family loves it!!!!"
"We made two alterations to this recipe. First, we don't like gingersnaps, so we replaced the gingersnap cookies with crushed Newton's Fruit Thins in the Cranberry Citrus Oats flavor. (They are this new crispy cookie from the Fruit Newtons company and they are SO good in this recipe!!) Then, we wanted a touch of color in the topping, so we added a little bit of strawberry jam, (we used Smuckers), it made the topping look pretty and it added just a bit of flavor. Sounds like it would clash with the pumpkin, but it was amazingly good. With these changed, this was HANDS DOWN the best pumpkin cheesecake I have ever had. Better than than, it was one of the best CHHESECAKES I have ever had!!!"

Rated 1 out of 5 by nativeco Wouldn't order food online again after this. Ordered and returned item to store. They did not have any in stock, so I haven't actually tried the product. When I received the product I just ordered, the expiration date was September 2014. Not Cool! September 3, 2014
