Q. I've had lots of relationships, but I guess my career (I'm an artist) was always my priority. To be honest, I've always wondered what all the fuss was about.
Well, a few months ago I was hit HARD by Cupid in the form of a 50-year-old divorced man with two twentysomething kids. I'm 42, a grown woman, but I feel like a teenager in the throes of puppy love. I'm sitting by the phone desperate for him to call and upset if he wants to spend time with anyone but me. I know he cares but I'm afraid my extreme neediness might eventually turn him off. How can I put things in perspective and calm down?
— Jill
A. The teen years — a time when one is beleaguered by pimples, parents and, ah yes, obsessive passion. Only you missed the last part, having been a high achiever on the career front, and you're now playing a vigorous game of catch-up. But this is one "test" you shouldn't want to ace.
Mary Sise, LCSW and co-author of The Energy of Belief: Psychology's Power Tools to Focus Behavior and Release Blocking says, "There's nothing worse than acting like a pathetic needy teenager, behavior that is fueled by fears of not measuring up." Claire Turner, a 46-year-old Denver podiatrist knows this firsthand: "I fell in love for the first time at 40. Before, I'd always been the one who was pursued. But my neediness and excitement about Bob exploded off the charts."
Here's a flash, and not a hot one: Hormones are the reason "youthful" puppy love sparks such extreme doglike devotion. Dr. LeslieBeth Wish, a specialist in women's love issues explains, "The relationship has activated the reward-pleasure center in your brain that has high levels of dopamine." The psychologist adds, "Chemically your brain cannot distinguish between falling in love and being addicted. In short, your neuro-hormones have hijacked the more sensible front part of your brain." It may have been fun in the beginning to have so much romantic energy but now it's exhausting, like you're chasing your tail.
How to offset the dopamine deluge? Tina Tessina, LMFT, PhD, and author of The Unofficial Guide to Dating Again suggests, "Befriend yourself. Your life has to feel more important to you than his. Codependency will doom the relationship. Be involved and busy, so busy that you miss some of his phone calls."
Claire, the Denver podiatrist, followed this advice. "I purposely stopped being so available all the time," she says. "I took up some engrossing volunteer work. I stopped spending the entire weekend with Bob and made time for my girlfriends. And I asked them about their lives instead of monopolizing the conversation with stories about my boyfriend."
There was some initial anxiety as Claire weaned herself from the high that comes from constantly being around the love object. Dr. Wish offers more suggestions for activating the reasoning part of the brain: "Write down on a piece of paper statements that help reestablish your power like, 'I don't have to act on every feeling;' 'It's always wiser to go slower in the beginning;' and, 'It's easier to speak up than to slow down.' Repeat these statements to yourself several times a day."
Try these tactics and soon you'll stop being a Peter Pan in the relationship sphere. Claire shares, "I'm happy to say I fell down to earth. Bob and I are still together but now the relationship is part of my life, not my whole life."

The halacha is you can only build a city of refuge in Israel. What if someone killed by accident outside of Israel. Can the relative of the guy who was killed go after and try to kill the murderer who killed by accident?

Sifri states that the Cities of Refuge also serve people who live outside of the Land of Israel. According to Kesef Mishneh's first explanation, that means exactly what it sounds like: an accidental murderer from another country would have to run away to the nearest City of Refuge in Israel (or Transjordan), and until he does so he would be subject to attack by the goel hadam (the nearest relative of the victim).

The Texas Alzheimer's Research and Care Consortium (TARCC) is a collaboration between seven of the state's leading medical research institutions, working to improve early diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimer's Facts
1 in 9 people age 65+ has Alzheimer's disease.
About 490,000 Texans are projected to have Alzheimer's by 2025.
Every 66 seconds, someone in the United States develops Alzheimer's.

TARCC Research Updates
TARCC investigators have been involved in a number of new, important research studies. Recently published research is wide ranging, spanning the gamut from clinical trials to new cognitive diagnostics; blood-based biomarkers in Mexican-Americans; identification of additional risk genes; and validation of biomarker algorithms in AD patients and AD animal models.
View all TARCC researcher publications here.
Rachelle Doody, MD, PhD
Dr. Doody was lead author of a recent publication, "Blood-Based Biomarkers, Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, homocysteine, and Alzheimer's disease". The findings add to the evidence of increased risk of AD associated with higher levels of Lp-PLA2 and homocysteine, and suggests that they work through different pathways. (Alzheimer's & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring 1 (2015) 464-471.)
Dr. Doody was lead author on behalf of the Alzheimer's Disease Study Group (ADCS) of a recent publication in the New England Journal of Medicine. The results of that study showed that Solanezumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds amyloid, failed to improve cognition or functional ability in two, phase-3 double blind clinical trials. (N Eng J Med 370:311-321, 2014).
Sid O'Bryant, PhD
Dr. O'Bryant published a study in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, looking at biomarkers of AD among Mexican Americans. This provocative study shows that the biomarker profile for AD among Mexican American cases is significantly different from that previously identified among non-Hispanic cases from many large scale studies. This is the first study to explicitly examine and provide support for blood-based biomarkers of AD among Mexican Americans. (J Alzheimers Dis 34:849-849, 2013).
Robert Barber, PhD
Donald R. Royall, MD
Dr. Royall was lead author on a recent publication in the Journals of Gerontology: "Series B: Psychological Science" (in press). TARCC investigators developed a method of diagnosing dementia from cognitive measures alone, and have validated it in the Hispanic Established Population for Epidemiological Studies in the Elderly (HEPESE). This research opens the door to studying dementia risks or outcomes in HEPESE and similar studies, even when participants cannot be seen by expert clinicians.
Dr. Royall, on behalf of TARCC, published a study in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease where he described a new latent dementia proxy and validated it in several datasets, including well characterized subjects participating in the TARCC study. This type of analysis may make factor scores derived from latent variables a potentially attractive solution for dementia case-finding in rural or minority populations.

Love Is Oh So Sweet (17 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
A few months back I partnered with my sweet and talented friend, Courtney of Dishie Rentals for a styled shoot. The theme for this photo shoot- Love Is Oh So Sweet. The theme was created in part of celebrating my wedding anniversary and our mad love for sweets. This local park, Kraft Azalea Garden of Winter Park was scouted by Courtney and fit our plan perfectly. Working with Courtney is the best, she's wonderful and her dishes are the perfect eye candy. The color palette was inspired by the tablecloth, a rifle pattern via BHLDN. Best. Purchase. Ever.
I had a hard time being selective with the photos to share, they are all so wonderful! Our photograph, Janelle's Photography captured the set up from sunset to dark. It was wonderful seeing the display with sun light and then by candle light. I created a mason jar chandelier by attaching glitter ribbon to the mason jars and hanging them from the tree. Tealights completed the look and a unique glitter filled chandelier was formed. This was everyone's favorite detail.
Working with Alexis June Creative was such a pleasure. Her work has been featured in a bazillion amazing locations and I jumped on the opportunity to collaborate. To add variety to the floral pattern we decided on polka dot invites, place tags and menus. Such beautiful prints.
Most of you know my dear friend, Carrie of A Sweet Spot Home as I chat about her always. Carrie created the lace silverware/napkin wraps and the cloth napkins. Her handmade work is fabulous. These neutral patterned napkins fit any occasion.
Gold and pink spray painted mason jars also added an extra touch of romance to the display. I picked up fresh flowers on the way to the location and quickly put together these arrangments. Simple fresh flowers make for such an impression in my book.
Are these not the most beautiful sweets you've ever seen? I work with Sandy on every project I touch because she is wonderfully wonderful. Firefly Confections created these stunning LOVE cookies made to match our invites. Love & Sugar Kisses is a chocolate covered oreo and truffle making rockstar. Her sweets look too gorgous to eat but you must, they taste so yummy. Crazy About Macarons created these colorful delights and they too were delish. I whipped up some fresh cupcakes the morning of the shoot becuase let's face it, there can never be too many sweets.

The quality of life in West Bank cities like Nablus, Ramallah, and Qaliqilya is on the rise. Culture and leisure activities are increasingly available to West Bank Palestinians who enjoy movies, health clubs, malls, restaurants, and music festivals.
In 2009, the West Bank enjoyed a significant economic recovery, with economic growth reaching an unprecedented 8% - a continuation of positive trends reported in 2008. Macroeconomic conditions in the West Bank improved during 2009, mainly thanks to measures taken by Israel to support economic activity, improvements in the security situation in the West Bank, the continued financial support of the international community to the Palestinian Authority and increased foreign investment. This economic growth is reflected in an improved quality of life for the Palestinian population. There is an increase in new real estate projects, both residential and commercial. Rawabi, the first planned Palestinian city, is being built with the help of Israeli consultants. The West Bank boasts one of the world's strongest stock exchanges, the Palestinian Securities Exchange, (PSE), which grew 12.5% last year. It is ranked 33 among international stock exchanges and second in the region in terms of investor protection.
An Israeli Cabinet Ministerial Committee, chaired by the Prime Minister, was established in May 2009, dedicated to facilitating economic projects for the Palestinian population in the West Bank and removing obstacles to economic growth. The establishment of this Committee reflects the high priority accorded by the government to Palestinian economic development. Its objectives include examining ways to encourage the movement of goods and people, removing impediments to the progress of economic projects in the West Bank, as well as eliminating bureaucratic impediments in this area.
There has been a substantial improvement of access and movement in the West Bank. Major Israeli checkpoints have been reduced from 42 to 14 today, greatly eliminating the restrictions imposed on Palestinians due to security concerns following terrorist attacks. Remaining checkpoints are now open 24 hours a day in most cases. In 2009, Israel issued 54,318 employment permits to Palestinians for work in Israel. Some 1,500 high profile Palestinian business people have open entry permits to Israel (2009).
In 2009, Israel made intensive efforts to upgrade and improve the capacity of the commercial crossings, including the Allenby Bridge Terminal to Jordan and upgrading the commercial crossings between Israel and the West Bank.
A number of infrastructure projects are currently in different stages of implementation in the West Bank. These projects will help improve the standard of living for the local population, including among others the upgrading of water, electriticy and sanitation infrastructures.

Interests and Current Work
My work is situated at the intersection of Queer Theory and Postcolonial Studies. Originally, I focused on representations of non-normative sexualities in Maghrebian literature, but increasingly not only has my work moved into other Francophone regions (Caribbean, Sub-Saharan Africa, Québec, Asia, Louisiana), but it has also become more comparative (including Anglophone African literatures and Southern U.S. cultures, for example).
My recently completed project, Queer Roots for the Diaspora, Ghosts in the Family Tree, represents this expansion of my interests. A comparative study in queer disaspora studies, this book takes as its central concern the persistence of a desire for rooted identity. My argument is that, in spite of these conceptual debates around the concept of roots, ultimately the desire for roots contains the "roots" of its own deconstruction. I carry out my own search for alternative roots that offer models of collective identity that are heterogeneous instead of homogeneous, acknowledge their own fictionality, and deploy family trees haunted by the queer others that patrilineal genealogy seems to marginalize. These roots narratives welcome sexual diversity, acknowledge that even a single collective identity can be rooted in multiple ways, and challenge the patrilineal lines of descent implied by roots, in part by disrupting the linear process of storytelling that constitutes identity.
I am also interested in questioning what it means to be American, particularly through the study of non-English cultures within the U.S. itself, which is why I have begun to study Louisiana as a way of queering American identity. My current project, Reading across the Color Line: Racialization in the French Americas, undertakes a comparative study of literary texts from the French Americas (Louisiana and the Caribbean), in which racial difference is less visible as skin color and whose resistance to Anglo-American definitions of race encourages us to understand these definitions as historically contingent. In these texts representations of race become legible only after readers relinquish Anglo-American assumptions about a racial binary based on the "one-drop rule."

"'I Walk the Line' was a hit in November of 1956, that's about a year before I was born, so it really is a part of the world that I know. But that's the way it seems with great songs and great artists. Their impact on people is such that you can't imagine what the world would be like or sound like without them."
That was Lyle Lovett describing the first Johnny Cash song he ever heard, when he inducted Cash at the 1992 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony (watch video of Lyle Lovett inducting Johnny Cash into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame).
"I Walk the Line" hit Number One on the country Billboard charts and crossed over into the pop Top 20. Nearly six decades after "I Walk the Line" – and more than a decade after his passing in 2003 at age 71 – new, never-before-heard material from The Man in Black is scheduled for release in Spring 2014.
Pictured (l-r): 1943 Martin acoustic guitar played by Johnny Cash during his Sun Records recording sessions from 1955 to 1958; c.1955 suit worn by Johnny Cash during his time with Sun Records ...
What happens when two musical giants collide, when two Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees defying genres and generations share the stage? On October 28, 1970 just that happened on Johnny Cash's TV variety show, when he welcomed "the great Louis Armstrong." Cash opened the introduction, remarking: "This country has given the world three original art forms – country music, jazz and Louis Armstrong."
Promoting his 1970 collection of country and western standards (fittingly titled Country & Western) and sporting an oversized cowboy hat, Armstrong sang "Crystal Chandeliers," the country classic originally sung by Charley Pride; and "Ramblin' Rose," a song made popular by Nat King Cole.
With the performance wrapped, Armstrong took a seat beside Cash, both musicians holding their instruments of choice: a trumpet and a guitar, respectively. "You've been at it a long time," Cash said to Armstrong. "I know that. We did a little research on some of your recordings; we find that on July 16, 1930, you played trumpet on a session with the late Jimmie Rodgers, the Father of Country Music. That was in Hollywood, right?"
Armstrong explained the ostensibly unlikely pairing: "We had a meeting one morning and Jimmie said, 'Man, I ...
Although it originated in Ireland, the tune and melody of "Londonderry Air" is known worldwide, its flowing cadence inextricably linked to Irish heritage. When English lawyer and songwriter Frederic Weatherly was introduced to the tune in 1913, he recast lyrics he'd previously penned to match the "Londonderry" melody, giving rise to "Danny Boy,"arguably the most celebrated version of the song.
For more than a century, the stirring folk ballad has been adapted by a diverse cast of performers, including various Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees. Here, we look at versions of "Danny Boy" by Sam Cooke, Johnny Cash, Jackie Wilson, Roy Orbison, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Eric Clapton.
Sam Cooke
Cooke cut a beautifully soul-infused version of "Danny Boy" for his 1958 self-titled debut album, adding a charismatic lilt to the arrangement.
Johnny Cash
Cash recorded a hauntingly solemn version of "Danny Boy" for his 1965 Columbia Records release Orange Blossom Special, an album that included various folk and country standards as interpreted by the incomparable Man in Black.
Jackie Wilson
Wilson, who could effortlessly transition from rock to blues to soul, transformed "Danny Boy" – reportedly one of his mother's favorite songs – in ...
In 1995, Hall of Fame Inductee Johnny Cash's youngest daughter Tara gave her famous father a book – Dad, Share Your Life With Me by Kathleen Lashier – containing 365 questions. One year later, on her birthday, he returned the book to her with answers to all the questions.
"This book helps to really paint a picture of what life was like for my Dad, what his interests were, his family traditions, his feelings about so many things... this book is one of my personal treasures, and it gives me great pleasure to share it with his fans," explains Tara. "I was very proud of my father for not only what he accomplished, but who he was as a person and father."
Those questions and answers form the basis of Recollections, a new book based on the original Tara sent her father, though reformatted with personal notes and photos – a unique story in Cash's own handwriting.
"The main reason I wanted to share this book, is to let my father's fans see a more playful, fun and candid side of him," says Tara.
"I also wanted to give the public an inside look into another facet of my father ...

Yazoo City Boy Competes on Food Network
Photo Cutline: Jacob with his mother, Leslie, and sister, Ellie, in front of their family ...
Photo Cutline: Jacob with his mother, Leslie, and sister, Ellie, in front of their family restaurant in Yazoo City.
Mother and son team Leslie Roark Scott and Jacob Scott of Yazoo City are taking the food competition scene by storm. Leslie competed on Food Network's Chopped Grill Masters in 2015, and 12-year-old Jacob recently competed in Food Network's Kids BBQ Championship, with his episode premiering Monday, May 23 at 7 p.m. Central Time.
Co-owner of Ubon's in Yazoo City, Leslie earned the title of "pit master," winning her first episode of Chopped. According to Jacob, she, along with his grandfather, Gary Roark, has inspired him in his pursuit of the culinary arts.
"I've been cooking since I was five or six years old," he said. "It's in my veins. My grandfather and my mom passed the tradition on to me. It's really fun cooking with them – I feel safe and not nervous when they're around."
Kids BBQ Championship will feature eight of the country's finest young barbecuers, taking on the first-ever battle to find the best kid grill master. Hosts Camila Alves and Eddie Jackson lead the young chefs through a series of challenges that will test their barbecue skills as well as their creativity on the grill. Only one will take home the grand prize of $20,000 and a feature in Food Network Magazine. The themed challenges will range from a Hawaiian luau to a cowboy campfire.
Jacob is not new to the competition scene – he has experienced helping his mom and grandfather at competitions like Memphis in May, the Big Apple BBQ in New York City and the Windy City Smokeout in Chicago. During the competitions, he said, he helps with pork shoulder prep and generally helps with anything that needs to be done.
In his first-ever competition, he cooked sausage and made his own barbeque sauce using a secret ingredient – his grandmother's cumquat jam. He was six years old.
"I've always loved cooking because it's peaceful. I can just think and be creative, making whatever I want," said Jacob.
His signature dish is pork chops stuffed with homemade pimiento cheese, served with squash, asparagus and mashed potatoes. His favorite thing to eat from his Ubon's, he said, is a brisket sandwich.
As for future aspirations, Jacob hopes to attend business school, culinary school, and eventually open his own restaurant.
"I want to travel around the world and bring the things I like back here," he said. "I want to mix them with what I already know how to cook to make it even better."
For more information on Jacob's episode of Kids BBQ Championship, visit the Food Network blog.

5. The Manship – Jackson, Miss.
The Manship Wood Fired Kitchen is located in the historic Belhaven neighborhood of Jackson. The creation of Chef Alex Eaton and entrepreneur Steven O'Neill, The Manship transforms the essence of Mediterranean food and southern classics. Eaton and O'Neill strive to capture the cuisine of the countries surrounding the Mediterranean, while maintaining a southern flair. The menu designs are based on the relationship between the chef and farmers, and the food available at the moment. Some items you'll find on the menu include heirloom tomato bisque, farmer's market pizza, duck leg confit, and a long list of fresh, seasonal vegetables.
6. Corks & Cleavers – Gulfport, Miss.
Lead by Chef David Dickensauge, Corks & Cleavers Wine Bistro is a rustic fusion of Mediterrean and Spanish cusine with a Southern flair. Located in the newly restored downtown Gulfport, their menu features dishes sourced from the freshest local products available. Also, enjoy live music on the weekends and a local brew or glass of wine in the downstairs courtyard on the weekends.

Located in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Tishomingo State Park is steeped in history and scenic beauty. Archaeological excavations confirm the presence of Paleo Indians in the area now encompassed by the park as early as 7000 B.C.! The park takes its name from the leader of the Chickasaw nation, Chief Tishomingo. The famous Natchez Trace Parkway, the premier highway of the early 1800s and a modern scenic parkway, runs directly through the park. Today's visitors to Tishomingo State Park discover the same timeless natural beauty that enchanted the Indians centuries ago. Tishomingo offers a unique landscape of massive rock formations and fern-filled crevices found nowhere else in Mississippi. Massive boulders blanketed in moss dot the hillsides, and colorful wildflowers border trails once walked by Native Americans.
Whether you stay in a tent, RV, or cabin, you'll have an affordable adventure for the whole family. Congratulations to Tishomingo State Park on the 2016 title!

Every day is a día de fiesta in Mexico! Here is a list of official Mexican holidays and important local festivals you may want to keep in mind as you plan ahead for your paradise vacation.
(Please visit our Upcoming Events page to learn about other important events that may be taking place during your visit!)
1 - New Year's Day (Año Nuevo): National holiday, banks and public government offices closed. This is the most laid-back holiday, people taking it easy after the night before, perhaps walking on the Malecon or going to the beach.
6 - Day of the Kings (Día de Reyes): The traditional gift-giving day when children receive toys and gifts in honor of the Three King' visit to baby Jesus. Some restaurants, hotels and The International Friendship Club, one of Puerto Vallarta's largest charities, annually visits local hospitals and rural communities bringing truckloads of toys to local children.
5 - Constitution Day (Día de la Constitución Mexicana): National holiday and parade, banks and public government offices closed. This day recognizes the implementation of the national Constitution into law.
14 - Friendship Day (Día de la Amistad): In Mexico, not just love, but friendship as well, is celebrated on February 14. Special menus in fine restaurants and live music in nightclubs.
24 - Mexican Flag Day (Día de la Bandera): Mexican celebration when the military, citizens and officials parade with the green, white and red to show their patriotism.
23 - Carnaval Day: Party with masks, kids parade in the streets.
24 - Ash Wednesday (Miércoles de Ceniza). This Wednesday is recognized by Protestants and Roman Catholics everywhere. Here the devout go to church and get their foreheads marked with ashes in the shape of a cross.
21 - Benito Juarez Day (Natalicio de Benito Juárez): A national holiday honoring the renowned former president who is known as "The Lincoln of Mexico." Also the First Day of Spring and the beginning of the spring break season.
5 - 12 Semana Santa: Puerto Vallarta is at its peak during this pre-Easter holy week, a time of national vacations and "spring break" from school.
1 - Labor Day (Día del Trabajo): National holiday, banks and public government offices closed. Labor day has unions parading in the streets.
5 - Puebla Battle Day (Día de la Batalla de Puebla): in 1862, national holiday, Banks and public government offices remain closed. Commemorating the defeat of the French at Puebla in 1862, is a big deal in parts of the USA, but not here. In fact, since 2001 it is no longer a national holiday, merely a banking one.
10 - Mother's Day (Día de las Madres): National holiday. Mother's Day is a huge deal, families gathering around the Queen for a Day to sing Las Mañanitas at midnight the night before. No problem that the kids are up late, because school's out the next day.
31 - In 1918, Puerto Vallarta became a municipality and in 1968 it was officially promoted from town to city. Today the city commemorates both celebrations with outdoor art and culture festivals.
1 - Navy Day (Día de la Marina): brings a colorful, morning parade of all the navy ships in port, followed by tour boats and fishing boats flying their nautical flags.
Fiestas Patrias: Mexico's independence is celebrated throughout the month of September.
1 - President's State of the Nation Address (Informe Presidencial) The president of Mexico delivers a hard copy of his State of the Nation Address to the Mexican Congress.
13 - Niños Heroes de Chapultepec - This day honors six teenage military cadets who died defending Mexico City's Chapultapec Castle from invading US forces, on September 13, 1847.
14 - Charro Day (Día del Charro): Mexican horsemen/women parade through town wearing beautifully decorated jackets, pants and sombreros on finely brushed horses decked with their best equipment. Festivities continue throughout the day and evening at various charro rings, including bullfights, calf roping, food and dancing.
15 - Independence Eve: On this night, the central plaza is filled with revelers participating in the traditional "grito", or cry for independence. Led by the mayor from the balcony in City Hall, it is preceded by the lighting of the flame of independence and a parade through the center of town. At 11:00 p.m., the cry "Viva Mexico" is made, followed by an impressive fireworks display. Food stands, music and folkloric dance performances are also part of the festivities.
16 - Independence Day (Día de la Independencia): The festivities continue with more brilliant fireworks and a parade that winds through the center of town, national holiday, banks and public government offices closed. Independence Day marks Mexico's liberation from the Spanish in 1810.
12 - Columbus Day (Día de la Raza) commemorates the discovery of America in 1492.
31- Halloween: In Mexico you'll also find costume parties, treats and tricks. Local custom dictates that costumes be on the ghoulish side, and local discos offer cash prizes up into the thousand-dollar range. The real bewitching hour, however, comes a couple of days later.
1 - All Soul's Day (Día de Todos los Santos): On this day, Mexicans pay homage to the souls of the children who have passed on. Tradition states that the departed descend from the heavens on this day, so family members prepare by leaving sugar skeletons, skulls and treats on altars custom-designed for the occasion. Each year City Hall offers a special altar exhibition, as does the Cultural Center on Rio Cuale Island. Restaurants, nightclubs and stores also create altars.
2 - Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos): Families hold a graveside vigil on this night, or at least leave their favorite food and drink (usually tequila) on a special altar constructed in their home or on the tomb of their departed ancestor. Bakeries are filled with sweets shaped in the symbols of death, and flowers and memorials fill the cemetery. Particularly popular are marigolds, the sacred Aztec flower that represents death.
20 - Mexican Revolution (Día de la Revolución Mexicana): Banks and public government offices closed. A parade through the center of town marks the anniversary celebration of the Revolution of 1910-1917.
1-12 "Guadalupe" Processions (Peregrinaciones): During these twelve days, processions to the downtown cathedral that bears the name of the patron saint of both Puerto Vallarta and of Mexico take place. Almost every business, hotel, restaurant, neighborhood and civic association makes a procession to the church for a special mass they have devoted to the Virgin. For the larger groups, these processions resemble a small parade, with folkloric dancers, floats, singing and even fireworks following their brief mass.
12 - Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe (Día de la Virgen de Guadalupe): This important religious and social holiday marks the day the Virgin Guadalupe made her miraculous appearance to a peasant in Mexico. The processions (see above) culminate on this day, when fireworks abound and the central plaza is filled with street vendors selling fruits and other local specialties.
12 - Anniversary of the founding of Puerto Vallarta (Aniversario de Puerto Vallarta): This date also marks Puerto Vallarta's "birthday." In 1851, don Guadalupe Sánchez Torres founded Puerto Vallarta, when he brought his family and a few friends to settle in an area alongside the Cuale River.
16-24 - Posadas: All over Mexico, families, businesses and neighborhoods celebrate the holidays with parties known as "posadas." This tradition is a re-enactment of Joseph and Mary's search for lodging in Bethlehem. Candlelit processions are formed to designated houses where the participants ask for lodging through a melodic song. The host will refuse several times before finally opening wide the door, signifying the start of the party. The main Christmas celebration is a traditional family dinner on Christmas Eve, followed by Midnight Mass.
25 - Christmas Day (Navidad): A quiet religious celebration and national holiday. Banks and public government offices remain closed.
28 - Holy Innocent's Day is the Mexican April Fool's Day, so don't believe a word you hear or read, local newspapers traditionally making up phony headlines.
31 - New Year's Eve: Vibrant fiestas throughout Puerto Vallarta at hotels, nightclubs and homes. Special dinners are served in hotels and fine restaurants. The traditional 12 grapes are eaten at midnight, a wish made before downing each one.

Battle of Runs Goes in DePaul's Favor, Women's Basketball Falls 86-75
In a gritty battle of runs, it was DePaul that managed to outlast the Princeton women's basketball team, 86-75, Friday evening in Chicago, Ill. The loss sends the Tigers home riding a 7-5 record.
Three players scored in double figures, with Niveen Rasheed leading the way with her fourth double-double of the year and second in as many games. The senior guard led the squad with 21 points, going 6-for-9 from the stripe, and 12 rebounds. She also had team-highs in assists (6) and steals (3) in 32 minutes of work.
Down 8-2 to open the game, Princeton responded with a 10-7 rally to come within a possession, 15-12, at 14:59.
Despite their efforts, the Tigers were unable to further contain the Blue Demons to find their first advantage. DePaul employed four of its seven three-pointers over the opening six minutes to maintain a multi-possession advantage.
A Rasheed jumper at 11:23 made it a three-point game, 20-17, but DePaul countered with an 8-0 run to again hold off the Tigers.
With 4:14 to play, DePaul earned its first double figure advantage, 35-24, before an Alex Wheatley jumper and a Kate Miller triple countered to make it a six-point game. Princeton's 5-0 rally was short lived, as the Tigers were unable to parlay it into further points and DePaul went into halftime holding a 41-30 lead.
Like the first half, the Blue Demons maintained control, expanding their lead to as high as 13 at three different points.
Megan Bowen managed to cut down DPU's lead to eight, 48-40, at 17:05, but the Tigers again were unable to extend their stride and the Blue Demons jutted back to a 13-point differential.
At 8:58, Kristen Helmstetter opened up an 8-0 run and the Tigers cut DPU's lead to seven, 64-57.
Helmstetter tallied 12 points, going 5-for-7 from the field.
Their efforts again went unrewarded, as DePaul went on a 5-0 run of its own to reestablish its double-digit advantage, 71-59 with less than six to play.
Blake Dietrick provided eight consecutive points to pull Princeton within six, 75-67, and from that point forward the Tigers' battled unsuccessfully to claw their way back into the game.
In her third career start, the point guard finished with a career-high 16 points, going 4-for-6 from beyond the arc.
The Tigers held a 51.8 percent (29-for-56) field goal percentage to DePaul's 40.8 percent (29-for-71); however the Blue Demons shot 91.3 percent (21-for-23) from the stripe.
Princeton concludes 2012 with a New Year's Eve contest versus Drexel at 2 p.m. at Jadwin Gym.

If a TV show in Windows Media Center doesn't record, and the show has already finished airing, there's no way to go back and record it again. However, you might be able to change your settings or your hardware configuration to prevent recording failures from happening in the future.
If the program that didn't record is on at another time, you can reschedule the recording. For more information about scheduling TV shows to record, see Record TV in Windows Media Center.
The following are reasons why a TV show might fail to record:
If you have more scheduled recordings than available TV tuners on your computer for any given time, Media Center will notify you that a recording conflict is about to happen, and you can follow the instructions to resolve it.
If you're not using your computer when the recording conflict is about to occur, Media Center will try to resolve the conflict on its own. If possible, Media Center will locate an alternate date and time for one of the shows, and then adjust the recording schedule to record both shows. Otherwise, it will select which show to record, based on the following priority (in order):
A one-time recording (not part of a series)
Series priority ranking
The show that was scheduled first
If there's a recording conflict between two episodes from different series recording requests, Media Center will use the series priority settings to decide which show to record. You can change the series priority settings to help ensure that your favorite series gets recorded if there's a conflict.
On the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to TV, click Recorded TV, click View scheduled, click Series, and then click Change Priorities.
When you schedule a new series, it's automatically added to the bottom of the list with the lowest priority.
For more information about recording conflicts, see Resolve recording conflicts in Windows Media Center.
If you have frequent recording conflicts, consider adding an additional TV tuner to your computer so you can record two TV programs on different channels at the same time.
Media Center can't record a scheduled program if there isn't enough space on the hard disk to store it. You can delete some previously recorded shows to make more room. You can also increase the limit for recorded TV in Media Center; or, if you have multiple hard drives, you can change the drive that Media Center saves your recorded TV shows to when one gets full.
On the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to Tasks, click Settings, click TV, click Recorder, and then click Recorder Storage.
Do one of the following:
Under Maximum TV limit, click the plus (+) or minus (-) button to increase or decrease the limit for recorded TV on the drive.
Under Record on drive, click the plus (+) or minus (-) button to choose a new drive for Media Center to save recorded TV shows to.
Click Save.
Media Center can monitor multiple drives for recorded TV shows, but it can only save recorded TV shows to the drive specified in Recorder Storage.
High-definition TV shows take up much more hard disk space than standard-definition recordings and will fill up your drive faster.
If hard disk space is low, sometimes a show will record, but then it will be automatically deleted to free up space for the next recording. To change these and other settings, on the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to Tasks, click Settings, click TV, click Recorder, and then click Recording Defaults.
If you're not getting a TV signal in Media Center, first check your TV signal cable to make sure it's properly connected to your TV tuner. If everything is connected properly, but you still can't get a signal, it might be because of one of the following:
Your TV signal isn't working correctly. This might be because the signal from your TV service provider is temporarily unavailable, in which case you'll likely need to cancel or reschedule the recording until the signal is working again. If you're having other issues with your TV signal, see Watching TV in Windows Media Center: frequently asked questions.
Your TV tuner isn't working correctly. Make sure that you have the most up-to-date driver for your TV tuner installed on your computer. For more information, see Update a driver for hardware that isn't working properly.
Media Center is having technical problems. If Media Center can't detect a TV signal to record but everything else is working properly, try restarting your computer.
Media Center can still record a TV show even if your computer is in sleep, hybrid sleep, or hibernate mode. But if your computer is turned off during the time of a scheduled recording, then the show won't be recorded.
If you're recording a TV show on a laptop, a scheduled recording will continue to record even if the laptop is in sleep, hybrid sleep, or hibernate mode, and it's running on battery power. If the battery power runs out, the recording will stop.
Media Center might encounter an error when changing channels to begin recording a show, or it might simply record the wrong channel. These problems are more common if your TV signal comes through a set-top box. A channel-changing error on a set-top box could be due to one of the following reasons:
The IR (infrared) control cable on your set-top box is positioned incorrectly. If the IR control cable on the front of the set-top box is positioned incorrectly or is not connected at all, Media Center can't send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.
The set-top box TV channel-changing speed is too fast or too slow. If an incorrect channel-changing speed is selected, the set-top box might get the signal for only two out of three channel numbers transmitted by Media Center and, as a result, change a two-digit channel instead of a three-digit channel. You can set up your TV signal again and select a different channel-changing speed.
On the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to Tasks, click Settings, click TV, click Set Up TV Signal, and then follow the instructions.
Media Center tries to change to a channel that's not part of your TV service package. If you're using a set-top box, it can get out of sync with Media Center, causing Media Center to record the wrong channel. You can hide unwanted channels in Media Center to prevent it from recording channels that you don't receive. You can also show hidden channels that you do receive so that Media Center can access them.
On the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to Tasks, click Settings, click TV, click Guide, and then click Edit Channels.
Scroll through the list and locate the channels that you want to show or hide.
Select the check box next to each channel to change its setting, and then click Save.
When a check box is selected, the channel appears in the Guide; when a check box is cleared, the channel does not appear.
If you're using a set-top box and you get an on-screen message, you'll need to use your set-top box remote control to take action before you can change channels in Media Center.
The Guide is out of date. Media Center automatically updates the Guide, but you can also download the latest Guide information manually.
On the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to Tasks, click Settings, click TV, click Guide, click Get Latest Guide Listings, and then click OK.
You'll be notified when the Guide listings are up to date. For more information about the Guide, see Use the Guide in Windows Media Center.
There are restrictions for a specific show. If a broadcaster sets restrictions that prohibit a show from being recorded, Media Center can't record the show.
You reached the limit for how many shows in a series are kept. By default, Media Center will keep as many shows as possible for a TV series that's being recorded. However, if shows from a specific series are failing to record, try checking your settings for the series.
On the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to TV, click Recorded TV, click View scheduled, and then click Series.
Click the name of the series, and then click Series settings to view and adjust the settings for a specific series.
If you're still not sure why a show didn't record, you can check the recording history.
On the Windows Media Center start screen, scroll to TV, click Recorded TV, click View scheduled, and then click History.
Click Sort By Date, Sort By Status, or Sort By Title to organize the list.
The status for each show is listed next to the title.
Click the title of the show for more details on the recording status.
An analog or digital TV tuner is required to play and record live TV in Windows Media Center. If your computer didn't come with a TV tuner, you might be able to add one. For more information about obtaining a TV tuner, see Get help for your TV tuner or contact your computer manufacturer.

ZF-10162: Zend_Rest_Client
An existing API is based on Zend_Rest_Controller and a separate zend application (1.10.6) connects to it using Zend_Rest_Client.
When an array is passed as a second argument to Zend_Rest_Client::restPut($path, $data) I get this exception instead of the expected response from my server app.
Message: Cannot handle content type '' automatically. Please use Zend_Http_Client::setRawData to send this kind of content.
Stack trace:
0 /web/b2c_bank/library/Zend/Http/Client.php(957): Zend_Http_Client->_prepareBody()
1 /web/b2c_bank/library/Zend/Rest/Client.php(159): Zend_Http_Client->request('PUT')
2 /web/b2c_bank/library/Zend/Rest/Client.php(187): Zend_Rest_Client->_performPost('PUT', Array)
3 /web/b2c_bank/library/My/Service/Rest/ClientCore.php(48): Zend_Rest_Client->restPut('/api/', Array)
p.s. all other REST methods (GET, DELETE, POST) work fine in the same configuration
exactly what data is in $path, and $data? You need to provide enough data to be able to reproduce this in order that it can be fix, if there is indeed a bug.
If this is a support request, please close this and direct your support requests to either the mailing list, or #zftalk on Freenode IRC.
Here is what happens:
$data = array('var' => 'text', 'num' => 1);
// path to rest controller with a putAction(){}
$path = '/core/public/rest';
$client = new Zend_Rest_Client('http://localhost:8888');
return = $client->restPut($path,$data);
this also produces the exception I'm talking about. Like I said, exactly the same setting works for me fine on POST for example..
I'm having the same problem as Nikola. Attempting to PUT via Zend_Rest_Client.
I have the same issue
$rest = new Zend_Rest_Client('http://localhost'); $rest->getHttpClient()->setHeaders('apikey','0274895'); $result = $rest->restPut('/angeldesk-web-service/public/V1/topics/19', array('user_id' => 1)); var_dump($result->getBody());
Stack trace:
0 C:\Program Files (x86)\Zend\ZendServer\share\ZendFramework\library\Zend\Http\Client.php(961): Zend_Http_Client->_prepareBody()
1 C:\Program Files (x86)\Zend\ZendServer\share\ZendFramework\library\Zend\Rest\Client.php(159): Zend_Http_Client->request('PUT')
2 C:\Program Files (x86)\Zend\ZendServer\share\ZendFramework\library\Zend\Rest\Client.php(187): Zend_Rest_Client->_performPost('PUT', Array)
If i do not put array to restPut() it works. But how am i going to path aditional params?
This is a duplicate of ZF-11030, which I have patched.
