For me it seems related to the post size. Should I modify something in my squid configuration ? (which is pretty basic).

Long Beach Ends Texas Tech's Winning Streak With 4-1 Victory
Sydni Emanuel went 4-for-4 with two stolen bases Sunday against Long Beach State.
March 16, 2014
SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Texas Tech committed a season-high five errors Sunday afternoon en route to allowing three unearned runs in a 4-1 loss to Long Beach State to open the San Diego State Classic at SDSU Softball Stadium.
The loss snapped Tech's previous 12-game winning streak that was its longest since midway through the 2012 season. The Red Raiders (22-7) close the day against host San Diego State later in the afternoon.
Long Beach (20-8) broke a 1-1 tie in the sixth, taking advantage of two Tech errors on a Darian Tautalafua single that allowed pinch runner Alexie Johnson to score from first base.
The one-run lead was all Erin Jones-Wesley needed as the right-hander retired the Red Raiders in order in the sixth before working out of a jam in the seventh where the first two Tech hitters reached base.
Jones-Wesley (11-4) earned the win in a complete-game effort, holding Tech to just one run off six hits and five walks. She also struck out seven, the most for the Red Raider offense since striking out eight times Friday against DePaul.
The Red Raiders plated their only run in the first off a perfectly executed double steal from Sydni Emanuel and Lea Hopson. It was the second stolen base of the inning for Emanuel, giving her a Big 12-leading 27 already this season.
Emanuel finished 4-for-4 at the plate, marking her second four-hit game this season. It was her team-leading 13th multiple-hit game this year and third in five games this weekend.
The 49ers added two insurance runs in the seventh off a Cya Neal RBI fielder's choice and a Karli Sandoval sacrifice fly. Neal scored leadoff hitter Shayna Kimbrough, who finished 2-for-3 atop the lineup.
Gretchen Aucoin (7-3) garnered the loss for the Red Raiders in the circle after tossing 5.1 innings where she allowed two unearned runs off five hits and four strikeouts. Cara Custer relieved her for the final two outs in the sixth before Chandler Moore came on for the seventh inning.
All six of Tech's hits came from the top of its lineup as Sydnie Tapia went 2-for-3 to extend her career-best hitting streak to 12 games. Tapia also stole her third base of the season to allow Emanuel to score in the first.
The Red Raiders were previously 18-1 this season when scoring before their opponent.

College Hockey:RIT, Elmira Top Picks in ECAC West
CENTERVILLE, Mass. — Defending ECAC West tournament champion, RIT, is the coaches' preseason choice to claim the regular-season men's title based upon results of the 2002-03 preseason poll. Meanwhile, Elmira, the 2002 NCAA Division III National Champion, was picked as the preseason favorite in the ECAC West women's conference.
Coaches could not vote for their own team.
RIT, which posted a 23-2-2 overall and a 9-1 conference record a year ago, amassed 25 points to top the six-team men's poll. A 2002 NCAA Division III championship participant, coach Wayne Wilson's squad garnered five first-place votes.
Manhattanville, which returns 22 varsity players, took the No. 2 slot in the poll. The Valiants went 16-7-3 overall, 5-4-1 within the conference last season, and earned one first-place vote.
Elmira, last year's ECAC West Championship tournament runner-up, was voted third. Tim Ceglarski's team went 18-9 overall, 8-2 in the conference last season.
Utica (10-12-3, 2-7-1) was fourth, Hobart (10-16-0, 5-5-0) was fifth and Neumann was picked last.
On the women's side, Elmira, which posted a 26-1-1 overall and 17-1-1 conference record in 2001-02, received 29 points, including four first-place votes to top the seven-team poll. Coach Jamie Wood's Soaring Eagles enter the season as the defending regular-season champion as well as the champion of the first ECAC West Championship.
Plattsburgh State was picked second, followed by Utica, Buffalo State, Neumann, Cortland State and Chatham.
Plattsburgh (21-4-2, 16-2-2 last season), which finished second to Elmira in double overtime in the conference tournament a year ago, earned two first-place votes in earning the No. 2 spot.
Chatham, in seventh place, is under guidance of head coach Mike Joseph, beginning its first season in the ECAC.

This season is filled with joy—but it's also filled with things to do. One of those is the not so joyous task of taking a look at your family tax situation to ensure everything is in good order by the end of the year. And as if you don't have enough to think about as a parent, now you have more to think about at tax time (congratulations). Just for you, we consulted with Deborah Shure of www.nannytax.ca to remind us of all those taxing tax considerations. The good news is that many of them save us money, and that's worthwhile in these economic times.
New Benefits
The Canada Child Tax Benefit (CCTB) helps eligible families with the cost of raising children under the age of 18 (read: the government gives you money). Your eligibility for the CCTB is largely based on your family income (lower income earners receive it). The Universal Child Care Benefit (UCCB) is designed to assist all families with their childcare expenses for children under the age of 6.
To Do? CCTB and UCCB do not come to you automatically—so if you had a baby in 2008, make sure you apply for them (one application works for both). Also, both spouses need to file an income tax return before the CCTB can be calculated. So, even if one had no income, a return should still be filed every year in order to determine the correct entitlement.
Get (Fiscally) Fit
Parents can claim up to $500 per year per child for children under the age of 16 (or under 18 if the child is eligible for the disability tax credit) through the Fitness Tax Credit, as an incentive to keep children active and in sports. If you have paid an amount that would qualify to be claimed as childcare expenses as well as the children's fitness amount, then you must first claim this amount as a childcare expense. If there is an amount remaining, it can then be claimed for the children's fitness amount as long as the requirements are met.
To Do? Make sure that you have receipts from any institutions that provided the fitness activity or instruction. Ask for a receipt if you do not have one. It is possible that only a portion of the expense qualifies for the credit, so be sure to find this out from the provider.
A Higher Education
Registered Education Savings Plans (RESPs) are a great way to save for your children's post-secondary education, as contributions are held in a tax-free trust and grow tax-free until the child begins to draw from the plan. Also, contributions are supplemented by an additional 20% through the Canada Educational Savings Grant (CESG) so don't miss out on your share.
To Do? Remember that the deadline for RESP contributions is December 31, not the end of February as is the case for RRSPs, so make your contribution today, to ensure you get that CESG top-up (read: free money from the government).
Care for the Childcare
The maximum childcare deduction per child under the age of 7 is $7,000. For children turning 7 to those under the age of 16, the limit is $4,000 per child. For kids with a disability, the limit is up to $10,000. The expense must be deducted from the lower of the partnered parent's income. Childcare expenses can come in the form of daycare, through the services of a nanny, or even from a portion of nursery school fees.
To Do? Your daycare or nursery school must issue a receipt for payments made during the calendar year (don't expect the receipt to be very official looking—they usually come in the form of a letter) so make sure you get yours. If you employ a nanny, you have a few more to-do's:
So keep track of all your receipts, file on time and make sure you are receiving the benefits to which you are entitled. No loopholes required.
Shure Consulting Services specializes in assisting caregiver employers with their "nanny tax frustration relief". You can visit www.nannytax.ca, or call 1-877-626-6982 for more information.

During the Mokan Productions/South Africa days there was an FBI Agent named John H. Meunier Jr. who did the bulk of the investigations. Yes the FBI was on Riggs all those years ago. While these events were many years ago they are important to the story. When you take it bit by bit or look at just a few years span you don't get the true picture of what a life of crime is. But when you look at the totality you begin to get an idea. There is an affidavit that Agent Meunier did that is a very interesting read.
**PLEASE NOTE*** this document is public record and is available if you are willing to make the trip to the National Archives in Kansas and find them**** Nothing being posted here is confidential information or anything that any American Citizen couldn't go get for themselves.
This affidavit was written and signed on March 16, 1989. In it he details all the activities that Riggs was involved in at that time. This includes driver's license numbers, phone numbers, bank accounts,etc.
This agent was also the sole witness who testified when the grand jury indicted Riggs on the 28 counts of fraud and the fake passport charge. A few things catch the attention when reading through this.
For starters, this case ALONE cost innocent people 4.3 MILLION dollars. That is just the money tied up in the Mokan Productions case. ONE scam and he walked away with millions. This isn't penny ante crime.
Agent Meunier states
To date, my investigation has show a pattern of massive fraud by Dave Riggs.
Some silly stuff. When Meunier describes Riggs physically he mentions a "noticeable scar on his forehead". Why is this silly? Because this is the description given to the agent of Riggs by friends, employees, business partners (victims) who knew him BEFORE he went to prison in Hong Kong. And yet it was stated later that he claimed the scar on his forehead and some on his back were caused by the abuse he was subjected to in the prison in Hong Kong. This is minor and doesn't mean much but it just shows again how Riggs will bend reality to suit his needs at any given time.
There are no less than 3 bank accounts listed in this report where all the money was deposited. Riggs was the sole signature on the accounts. Millions of dollars passed through them.
The agent thought that a man by the name of Michael Joseph East from New Zealand was actually Riggs. He was able to prove this by physical description and sending fingerprints to Hong Kong which came back with a match.
The investigation included interviews with both the victims of fraud who were tricked into giving Riggs money using what turned out to be non-existant equipment as collateral as well as the people he used (unwittingly) to commit this fraud. That's two groups of victims there.
The agent established that "National Studio Supply" the company that Riggs used to gain this credit never legally existed. It consisted of a po box, answering service and bank accounts. So pretty much the same thing that is going on NOW with Mach One Aviation, Mach I Aviation, Afterburner Jets, and any other company Riggs claims to own. Property tax records showed nothing owned by the company. It's a good guess the same would be true of Riggs' companies today. The only real difference is that he has registered them as companies with the state this time around.
In June of 1987 he started moving the money to the Cayman Island accounts. At this same time associates told the FBI that he told them he was going to have to run because he was about to get caught.
This includes trying to take his then girlfriend with him because "I'm running for my life." He also threatened the pilot who worked for him at that time that he and his family would suffer physical harm if he ever "turned" on Riggs.
Along with this document we also have the motion to suppress bond paperwork that gives us more details as well.
It is noted at this time that Riggs had THREE prior theft-fraud convictions. One of the arguments is very important to our cause here.
While the earlier convictions were for conduct involving much less money than that charged herein, they represent a pattern of escalating criminal enterprise."
We mentioned fleetingly the insurance scam that Riggs got in trouble for but after review of these documents we see it was much more than we realized. Riggs was an insurance adjustor and set up yet another bogus company. SMT Enterprises was said to be a company that would supply property to people who wanted that instead of cash in insurance claims. In reality it wasn't doing anything but cashing the checks the insurance company gave it and going into Riggs' account. For this he was indicted for seven counts of a Class C felony. He pleaded guilty and was given 5 years probation.
Although his probation was over when he was indicted for the Mokan situation (and fled to South America) the crimes were planned and begun PRIOR to his probation ending.
On May 13, 1987 Riggs was getting ready to flee the states to avoid prosecution. He got a passport in the name of David John Harl. In truth, Mr. Harl had died on April 30, 1987. Not only is it disturbing that Riggs found it okay to impersonate a dead man it's downright disgusting that he did it FOURTEEN DAYS after the man passed. He also had one in the name of Christopher Alan Price which New Zealand authorities eventually found as well as Michael Joseph East and John Nicholas Alleston these were issued in Australia and Great Britain.
All of this goes to prove that even before 30 Riggs had no problem committing any crime necessary to get the money he wanted. Who knows how many things he actually got away with as we are only documenting the ones we know of because he either got caught or someone has spoken out (even if they lost in court since that was CIVIL and not CRIMINAL). People like this do not change.
Here is a copy of the fake passport what was done in the name of a dead man.Share on Facebook

Reconstruction and subgaussian processes
Shahar Mendelson
Australian National University and Technion
In the reconstruction problem one is given a set T \subset \R^d and an unknown t \in T. The goal is to approximate this unknown point using few random linear measurements (< X_i,t >)_{i=1}^k, where (X_i) are selected independently according to a measure \mu on R^d. The question is how to obtain high probability estimates on the degree of approximation possible (depending on the number of measurements k, properties of the set T and the measure \mu).
We will present a survey of recent results concerning the reconstruction problem and explain how it could be analyzed using properties of subgaussian processes.

I love the Holidays - seriously love them! Every year I host a "Suggs Family Brunch". We invite over our friends & family and kick off the Holiday Season. This year's theme was The Grinch that Stole Christmas. My kids LOVE the book and so do I.
I turned to the incredible Loralee Lewis for my invitation design & paperie items. I wanted the party to have a more vintage feel rather then whimsical. Loralee took: "vintagey but not whimsical" and turned that into the most beautiful invitations, paper straws, labels & tags! Of course, I had to throw in a little whimsy into the mix with the fun dessert table spread. I hope you enjoy checking out our family brunch!

The Boston Red Sox were not able to sweep the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday night. Starting pitcher Joe Kelly pitched a strong game, but the Blue Jays were able to get to reliever Junichi Tazawa to beat the Red Sox 5-2. Kelly pitched the game despite a minor shoulder twinge that caused the right-hander to be removed from his prior star.
Kelly has still not recorded a victory since being acquired in a trade with the St. Louis Cardinals. On Wednesday night, Kelly pitched well enough for the win, but was pulled from the game after pitching six-plus innings of work. Pitcher Tommy Layne relieved Kelly after he gave up a leadoff double to Edwin Encarnacion in the bottom of the seventh with Sox leading 2-1. Layne gave up a single to Dioner Navarro to put runners on the corners, and that led to Tazawa entering the game.
Tazawa, who has a history of struggles against the Blue Jays, instantly gave up a three-run homer to pitch hitter Danny Valencia to put the Blue Jays up 4-2. Toronto added an insurance run in the inning to secure the victory. Entering the game, Tazawa had a 6.52 ERA in 19 1/3 career innings against the Jays. His struggles continued Wednesday night.
Red Sox manager John Farrell tried to explain Tazawa's struggles against the Blue Jays after the game. He told reporters that Japanese right-hander's past issues against Toronto may have been caused by tipped pitched.
Tazawa said he fixed that problem. He told the press through an interpreter, "That was a fact in the past, it was mentioned in the past when I had some meetings with my coaches, but I think I've already eradicated that. I'm using my breaking balls a little more, sidestepping…those are the things I'm incorporating into my pitching. I think I'm doing a better job, obviously I didn't pitch as well [today] but I'm making some improvements."
Although the Red Sox suffered another loss, it was encouraging to see Joe Kelly fight through a minor injury and pitch the type of game he pitched. He finished the game only allowing two runs on three hits. He walked two batters in the game, which is something he'd like to work on.

Racing Stand.
I just ordered one of these:
The Gamesmen Pty Ltd - Xbox 360 - Accessories - Fanatec RennSport Wheel Stand
Best price I could find in Australia. Posted here in case anyone else was looking for one. :)
Fanatec RennSport Wheel Stand Hangs On Tight While You Drive Like a Maniac
What about the Xlerator Racing Wheel Stand. Not sure on a local seller but it is on Amazon.
I had a look at that one. It was more expensive and as it did not fold up, it did not suit my needs.
This is what my son was looking at. Hyperdrive
I think he liked Bundle 1 with the extra seat padding. $259.95 plus delivery.
The Dominator at $650 plus is pretty good as well but wow baby get a load of the Hyperflight a cool $1100 plus.
Another impressive setup but way out of our league. Playseat. only 319 UK pounds for the basic unit plus delivery. Looks way sweet.
Link to another thread about this topic with some awesome ones!
Thanks for the link Leevers.
Shock_ listed the one I just bought. http://www.theoldergamers.com/forum/...ml#post2893821
The price he listed is the norm $299, which is why I jumped on the one I ordered at $199.
I would love some of those bigger rigs ... But I wish to remain married ;)
It has arrived and I have to say I am happy with it. It is sturdy and stable and has made racing a lot more fun.
Only issue I have is that the XBOX 360 Steering wheel won't fit on the base plate. You need to get the XBOX adapter and this is an issue for Australian customers. They are still available, but I can't find anyone that will ship them to Australia. (US/ Canada and Europe only).
Thankfully an good friend in Finland is helping me source one so hopefully it won't be too long before I am giving Forza 3 a good go. (Have to get ready for Forza 4 after all ;))
I will just have to console myself with GT5 until then :D
Mate, have you considered using someone like Shipito? USA Address & Mail Forwarding
Cool. Thanks Cadder. You ever used this service?
Not personally, but I know of people (on a different forum) who have.

Nokia Lumia 729 for Verizon purportedly pictured in leaked press renders
Verizon apparently can't have enough Windows Phones these days. Specifically, Nokia Windows Phones. The Lumia 729 is said to be the next one on the carrier's list.
The Lumia 729 should be a midrange offering, just like its number implies. What you see below are purportedly a couple of leaked renders depicting this Verizon-exclusive device. That said, Verizon's logo is missing so either these aren't finalized renders, or something fishy's going on (since the alternative, namely that Big Red would agree to not slapping its logo on a handset, seems extremely unlikely).
If it is real, the Nokia Lumia 729 may replace the Lumia 822 in Verizon's portfolio, or it may even be sold alongside it and the Lumia 928. This Lumia 729 features the PureView logo on the back, so it might get a better than average camera, but Nokia has essentially emptied the PureView name of all its meaning (if it ever had any) by putting it on a midranger. Or who knows, maybe this Lumia 729 will have a very impressive camera… but probably not.
Unfortunately no details about specs have been leaked alongside the image, so we can't tell you what will be inside this phone just yet. Stick around though, and we'll let you know when we find out more.

Vibrant Scenes of Italy by American Modernist Maurice Prendergast to be Shown in Houston
Maurice Prendergast, (American, 1858-1924), "The Lagoon, Venice", 1898. Watercolor and pencil on paper. Fayez Sarofim Collection.
Prendergast in Italy, the first exhibition devoted entirely to the watercolors, monotypes, and oil paintings by the American modern artist Maurice Prendergast, will open at the
Museum of Fine Arts, Houston
on February 14, 2010. Featuring more than 60 views of Venice, Rome, Siena, and Capri, Prendergast in Italy also includes the artist´s personal sketchbooks, letters, photographs, and guidebooks from his two trips to Italy, in 1898 and 1911. Prendergast was born and raised in Boston but developed his mature style during early trips abroad to France (1891-1895) and Italy (1989-1989). Renowned for his paintings full of joie de vivre, the view of Italy that Prendergast presents was informed by European trends filtered through the eyes of an American artist and tourist encountering Venice for the first time. This exhibition demonstrates the advances of abstract color and form that put Prendergast on the cutting edge of American modernism.
"The Williams College Museum of Art has the largest collection of Prendergast works in the world, and coupled with loans from 50 other institutions, this is an unparalleled opportunity to see such a complete collection of the artist´s output from his trips to Italy on view here in Houston," stated Peter C. Marzio, MFAH director. "Museum guests can traverse the colorful canals of Prendergast´s Venice, complimented by views of the sea presented by John Singer Sargent in Sargent and the Sea."
"Venice provided a spectacle of color and pattern that Prendergast transformed into stunning and bold works, all of which catapulted him into the front ranks of American artists," added Emily Ballew Neff, MFAH curator of American Painting and Sculpture. "Prendergast in Italy will show the enduring place Prendergast holds in American art as a technically superb watercolorist, and one whose buoyant surfaces and rhythmic patterns are are simply a joy to behold."
Since the majority of the works in Prendergast in Italy are of Venice, the armchair traveler will come away from this exhibition with a vivid sense of that unique city, its canals, and famous monuments as seen through the eyes of an American on the forefront of 20th-century modernism. Five paintings are displayed so that both sides of the works are visible. These double-sided watercolors, in addition to many sketches, unfinished works, and archival materials, provide a special glimpse into the artist´s creative process. A large group of color monotypes showcases Prendergast´s daring approach and experimentation with the medium.
Prendergast in Italy highlights a selection of the collection of over 400 works by artist-brothers Maurice and Charles Prendergast in the Williams College Museum of Art, the largest collection in the world. In addition to artworks from WCMA and the Terra Foundation for American Art, the exhibition features loans from over 50 institutions and private collections in the United States, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the National Gallery of Art, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
About the Artist
Maurice Prendergast (American, 18581924) made a name for himself in Boston and New York as a cutting-edge watercolorist who experimented with color monotypes. In his day, he was lauded by the more progressive art critics and attracted the support of modern art collectors. When he first departed for Italy (1898), he was an up-and-coming avant-garde artist who had recently returned to Boston from four years in Paris.
The body of work that Prendergast produced shows his struggle to pay homage to the great art he encountered in Assisi, Siena, Rome, and Venice while he grappled with the new realities of modern, unified Italy and the progressive art of his time. Prendergast´s interpretation of Venice captures a unique blend of old and new. Watercolors from his first trip to Italy are characterized by Prendergast´s interest in the Italian flag and how it symbolized a "new" Italy; he depicted it many times during this first trip. These works were sent home and exhibited in Boston even while he was still abroad. In 1900, shortly after his return to America, they were showcased in his first one-person show. It was the Italian watercolors that catapulted Prendergast to a national reputation and a place among the most advanced artists in New York.
Ten years later, after assimilating the new expressionistic and abstract art theories unveiled in Paris by Matisse, Picasso, and their circle, Prendergast again departed for Italy (1911). On his second trip, Prendergast focused on the bridges of Venice, applying his new style to the emblematic architecture of the canal city. This body of work shows the advances of abstract color and form that put Prendergast at the forefront of American modernism.

There is currently no national action plan that addresses human trafficking. However, since many of the persons trafficked into Japan are women for the sex industry, it is significant that the government enacted a Basic Law for a Gender-equal Society in June 1999. Although the law does not address trafficking or the sex industry it is considered an important part of the efforts to eradicate violence against and sexual harassment of women related to trafficking. Japan is also a financial contributor to the Trust Fund for Eradication of Violence against Women established in 1996 under UNIFEM (United Nations Development Fund for Women).1
The Japanese government takes pride in it's adoption of the Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child. In Japan, the Law for Punishing Acts Related to Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Protecting Children was enacted in November 1999 and action is being taken to enforce it. Japan also hosted the Second World Congress Against Commercial and Other Forms of Sexual Exploitation of Children in Yokohama in December 2001, in cooperation with UNICEF (United Nations Children's Fund) and ECPAT International (End Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Trafficking in Children for Sexual Purposes).
Japan was the host of the G8 Summit of 2000 in Okinawa. During the Summit proceedings, Japan confirmed its support for the adoption of the UN Transnational Organized Crime Convention and three related Protocols on firearms, smuggling of migrants (i.e., human trafficking) and drug trafficking. It also supported the establishment of an effective legal framework against transnational organized crimes including human trafficking by the end of 2000.

When installing the Management service for IIS7+ a self-signed SSL certificate is created and assigned, it has the name 'WMSvc-ComputerName'.
In the GUI version I can change this to a different 'proper' certificate installed on the server, so it is trusted by remote clients.
The GUI module for the Management Service is not available when connecting to the server remotely.
So I need to change it using the command line on the server itself. How do I do this?
Solution in PowerShell:, (thanks to Mathias R. Jessen)
# get the thumbprint for the certificate we want to use:
$thumb = (Get-ChildItem cert:\LocalMachine\MY | where-object { $_.FriendlyName -eq "www.stackoverflow.com" } | Select-Object -First 1).Thumbprint
# get a new guid:
$guid = [guid]::NewGuid()
# remove the self-signed certificate:

Embed system fonts with Flex SDK
Posted on 6th March 2010 in ActionScript | 1 Comment »
This little ActionScript 3 snippet will convert the system font to a SWF font instance that you can use in your AS3 project.
Compared to the bugloaded madness of embedding a font in Flash CS3, Flex SDK (in combination with Eclipse Platform and AXDT for instance) really makes it easy with a following ActionScript snippet:
package { import flash.display.Sprite; public class Impact extends Sprite { [Embed(systemFont='Impact', fontName='Impact', mimeType='application/x-font')] public static var Impact:Class; } }
As can be told from the above ActionScript code, it will embed a font called Impact.

Not to get all up in Robin Thicke and his wife Paula Patton's business, but the celebrity reports are that Robin will debut his new song at the 2014 Billboard Music Awards, to beg for Paula back. Thicke has not been quite with his public vows to get Paula back and his new song is no exception.
This title "Get Her Back" has lyrics such as I'll wait for forever for you." "All I wanna do is make it right" as well as some other things he says he should have done.While there was no audio of the new song readily available, TMZ has video of Robin Thicke saying "gotta get her back"! (See video to the left).
As the Billboard Awards show approach on May 18, 2014, Thicke will get confirmation of his seven nominations for entertainment including: Top Hot 100 Song, Top R&B Artist and Top R&B Album.
Robin Thicke may be able to use his celebrity to get back his wife. After all in an interview with Vanity Fair earlier this month Patton said of Thicke, "We've known each other since we were teenagers. All I can tell you is there's a deep love there -- always was, and always will be."
Yahoo will air a live two hour broadcast of the red carpet on its website on May 18, 2014 at 6 pm. You can also catch the BBMA awards on ABC at 8/9c.
Good luck to you Robin! We'll be watching!

No. 15 Lady Raiders Looking To Make History This Weekend
Samantha Adams and Kenna Kilgo look to lead Texas Tech against TCU and Baylor this weekend.
April 18, 2013
FORT WORTH, Texas – When No. 15 Texas Tech (17-4, 7-0) hits the tennis courts on Friday against No. 25 TCU, it is the first step in the last leg of completing history for the Lady Raiders.
The Lady Raiders are looking to become the first school to run the table undefeated since Baylor in 2010, but more importantly, Texas Tech is looking to become the first school other than Texas or Baylor to win back to back Big 12 regular season titles in women's tennis.
But for either of those things to happen, the Lady Raiders will have to get by No. 25 TCU (17-3, 6-1 Big 12) and No. 28 Baylor (13-13, 6-1 Big 12). TCU is 9-1 at home this season, while Baylor handed Texas Tech one of its four losses this season in January.
The Lady Raiders are riding an eight-match winning streak, which is the fourth longest in program history. A win over TCU would be the longest winning streak since winning 10 straight in 1987.
The Lady Raiders are led by No. 93 Samantha Adams, who is 15-17 on the season, but 6-4 in her last 10 matches. Kenna Kilgo (19-10) and Rashmi Teltumbde (13-10) anchor the No. 2 and No. 3 positions for Texas Tech.
The Lady Raiders feature the best 4-5-6 lineup in the Big 12 with Elizabeth Ullathorne (23-8), Nikki Sanders (21-5) and Caroline Starck (20-5).
But the marquee feature of the No. 15 Lady Raiders is their doubles play. Texas Tech has won 20 of 21 doubles points this season and 39 of 46 over the past two seasons. Anchoring doubles is the No. 15 tandem of Adams and Kilgo (20-7), who hold the top spot. No. 2 doubles is solidified by the duo of Teltumbde and Sanders (20-8), while Starck and Ullathorne (17-6) are locked in at No. 3.
TCU is led by No. 45 Stephanie Tan and No. 100 Olivia Smith. Millie Nichols has teamed with Smith to form the No. 54 doubles squad nationally.
The doubles point will be key when the Lady Raiders face Baylor, as Kilgo and Adams will square off against No. 17 Ema Burgic and Victoria Kisialeva. The Texas Tech duo cruised to an 8-3 win in January. Baylor won the top four singles matches, including three-set victories over Kilgo and Ullathorne.
At the Baylor match on Sunday at 2 p.m. at the McLeod Tennis Center, Texas Tech will look to set a new single-match attendance record for the Lady Raiders. Admission is free and there will be free pizza, a drawing for a tennis package, t-shirt giveaway, and a free kids clinic immediately following the match.

One Day At A Time
Tuesday, January 04, 2011
Hi SP,
It's been a long time. I started this process again way back in December of 2009. I was going strong too....logging mins....1.5 hours of cardio with 30 mins of strength training. And then.....I relocated to Charlotte, NC and fell off yet again. While I was staying with friends and job searching like there was no tomorrow....I got my into excercising again. It was serious too because as I'm sure most of you know....Charlotte's transportation system is nothing like Chicago...so I did LOTS of walking. It was serious. Then you know what I did....bought a car. Not because I was lazy but because I needed it to see clients for the job I finally got. And well...I'm sure you know what happened after that. I got lazy like there was no tomorrow. Barely wanted to walk up and down the stairs let alone 10 mins to a bus stop! UGH!
So now I'm back to being committed. Before the new year, I had already started on my goals. Didn't want to be one of those people that talked about making changes "in the new year".
I have gotten my eaten under control. I have weaned myself off a dependence on restaurant. I am cooking more and using my crockpot and trying new recipes. And getting a new found relationship with food. I have a new love for avocados and tomatoes now! :) Can't wait until April when the farmer's markets has good veggies and fruits again. I drink a min of 16 glasses of water a day. I have a 1 liter bottle that I refill twice and well.....there's my 16 glasses. Sometimes I go more than that!
I have resolved to take this weight loss thing one day at a time. I know that I have big goals I want to achieve but the journey of a 1000 miles begins with a single step and everyday I'm taking one step closer. It's kind of daunting at times but I take it one day at a time and one meal at a time. I've taken time to think about what I'm going to eat and plan my meals BEFORE I go to the grocery store so I'll know exactly what to get. I went in Trader Joe's just yesterday and picked up meals for this week AND some awesome snack items like the Laughing Cow Garlic and Herb cheese spread...soo delish! I can't keep think of I have X amount of pounds to loose, I focus on getting through each day and what I can do today to help achieve the results of tomorrow. And you know what SP...I have realized that I can do it. I aim for 30 mins of excercise each day and if I do more....freaking awesome....if I stop after 30...that's ok today. My reality is while I'm overweight....I'm actually in pretty good shape...believe it or not. I'm very active already and I know I have to add some more kick to my everyday routine to be successful.
Right now its still a bit difficult because I have to think about making consistent efforts throughout the day. I know eventually it will be commonplace for me. I am also no longer going to be embarrassed about the fact that I've been on Sparkpeople since 2007 and have not experienced any results. Each time I fall I'm just going to keep getting back up. There are so many people here on Sparkpeople with such awesome amazing and inspiring stories. I just want to be able to say I did it.
Keep it moving SP! Happy 2011 :)

If you're looking for printable coloring pages for kids, the following collection should help you pinpoint the type of picture you're looking for.

potential special needs diagnoses for our Zoe girl
(No, not Autism Spectrum Disorder... the other ASD: Atrial Septal Defect. And PVL? That's periventricular leukomalacia. Mad props to me for being able to spell that without help this time!)
So what does that mean? Well, in simplest terms, she has small hole-like areas of damage in her brain and a hole in her heart, if her medical records from Taiwan are accurate (and we have no reason to question them at this point). Neither seem to be causing any immediate medical problems, but we may be looking at therapies and surgeries and more specialist appointments to give her the best outcomes possible, and we'll keep y'all posted as we walk that path.
A sweet woman at church on Sunday - a woman who I had seen before but never spoken to in length - oohed and aahed over Zoe. She asked her name, and her county, and the number of days we had been home. Every question was genuine and well-intentioned, if not always tactful.
And then the big question came: And she's healthy?
We've had Zoe for less than a week, but it's been long enough for me to catch on that this sweet woman thought she knew the answer. Zoe is breathtakingly beautiful and loves watching the world around her. People have actually said, "Are you sure she has special needs? She looks too pretty," as if disability and beauty can't coexist. I could have just said, "yes, she's healthy," like she expected, and that answer would have been partially honest, because she is so much healthier now than she was when we met her in the cramped Taiwanese hospital prayer room exact one week ago.
I forced the full truth, as we know it, out instead: "Well, she was a preemie, and MRIs shows areas of brain injury, and her heart might have a defect. We're sorting through all of that."
She kept saying, "WOW," over and over, and then added, "and you took all that on?"
I didn't know what to say, so I just nodded.
To us, we're getting Zoe. I guess that means we're taking all that - ASD and PVL and any other alphabet soup that comes our way - on. We do, after all, have a cardiology appointment on the books (August 2) and a neurology one a'coming (update: it's August 2 as well), but that's just the reality of getting to parent our precious baby girl.
Getting to. It's a privilege.
We're not superheroes or martyrs or saviors in doing this. We may have been obedient in responding to God's call for us to adopt, but we are disobedient in a hundred different ways each day. The rough day we had a couple days ago was more the result of our sin than the challenges of transition. Yesterday, I ate the remnants of a bag of Doritos for breakfast and washed it down with a Diet Coke. I've been opting to watch Dawson's Creek on Netflix instead of unpacking, so most of our bags are still piled on the floor of our bedroom. We returned home last Thursday morning, and I've only had two showers - maybe three? - since then. (It's even grosser when you consider that our big kids have had a stomach bug this week, so try not to think about that.) Earlier today, I considered going to Wal-Mart to buy more underwear so that I could put off the laundry for another day. Later today, as I rest in bed with my turn with the stomach bug, I'll be catching up on my trashy TV by watching The Bachelorette: The Men Tell All on Hulu (and still not unpacking).
In other words, we're not perfect.
We're just riding this wild ride God set us on in parenting our two homegrown kiddos and our one Taiwanese treasure. Thanks for continuing to pray for us.

Again you just sound like a mom with a new baby - don't beat yourself up about that :)ReplyDelete
as for "taking it all on" its what you would have done for your biological children had you known before they were born something was going to be "wrong." But you do deserve props for following what you believe to be your path even if it includes lots of doctor visits and whatever else could come your way.Replies
It regularly amazes me how much of this transition is just new-baby-added-to-the-family and not adoption-related.Delete
Just gotta say it...she REALLY is BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL!! :o) God has special plans for her and I know he will bless you and guide you as her Mommy.ReplyDeleteReplies
She is gorgeous, isn't she? :)Delete
As they say here in Taiwan, "Jia-you." Literal translation -- "add more oil/gas." I have no idea why that particular expression, but it is a useful phrase to have on hand which is used for general encouragement and cheering on. If it helps any, you're not nearly behind on getting things done as I am. I seriously did my first post-maternity assessment of my wardrobe (instead of throwing on the first thing I could find to complement whatever part of yesterday's wardrobe I slept in) just recently and I feel lucky if I get in more than two showers a week, among other things (though my TV shows of choice tend more towards the crime-solving ones -- most recently it was the British show MI-5 downloaded from iTunes).ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm usually a crime show junkie too, but my husband loves those as well, so I save those to watch with him and gravitate toward the girlie fluff TV when it's just me. :) NCIS is my first choice.Delete
NCIS is way up there for me, too. I even got my mom into it. My husband and brother, however, I think would both classify it as girlie fluff, though. Tony, in particular, bugs my husband, but then again, my husband's British so I think it's in part too American for him. (My brother despises their technological talk as being ridiculous, but I don't know enough about technology to care.)Delete
Ok... as your friend, I have to tell you that while this post is sweet and wonderful and adorable and I love it... I am also sniggering at you for admitting to watching Dawson's Creek. (Yep, note that I'm not laughing at you for watching the Bachelorette... that's because I already knew you watched that one). Because that's just the kind of friend I am.ReplyDeleteReplies
Girl, I judged DC as awful when I was in college, leaving my dorm room every time the girls on the hall gathered there to watch. But now? Well, consider my occasional foray into Christian fiction... sometimes something awful hits the spot. Yes, I'm weird like that. :)Delete
I love how honest you are in your post and about your experience so far. Keep that up! The best response to any people, especially people with good intentions, is an honest response...gentle, loving and honest responses. They might not always understand, but at least they'll know you're honest. I've learned that over the 8 years I've been in the special needs community as a parent. I also wanted to mention that Aria, my 8 year old daughter, lives with a diagnosis of PVL as a result of her micro-preemie birth. That, in turn, has helped to cause a lot of other issues/diagnosis that also contributed to all of her multiple special needs. It has affected Aria in all areas with the exception of intellect & personality, but she is doing well considering. Hope you and yours continue to adjust comfortably and I hope you get to feeling better really soon! Thank you for sharing yourself & your family with us! :)ReplyDeleteReplies
I agree. So many special needs and adoptive parents recommend snarky comments in response to the weird questions and comments you get with both. Truth is most people aren't meaning to be rude, so it doesn't help to respond with rudeness.Delete
Such a beautiful picture! And, you may not feel like a hero - you are certainly Zoe's hero. And you handle it with such grace - keep being honest!ReplyDelete
She's my little hero too. Even though the feeding battles have been hard, they show what a fighter she is. That's how she has managed to thrive despite her circumstances before now!Delete
I love the way you are...so simple, just like you should be and something I can learn to be at times (I sometimes can go on and on about stuff, which makes no difference).Being a Mom is a privilege that God has granted us.Your doing great, keep up the good work friend!ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh, I do my fair share of going on and on about stuff! :) Thanks for the encouragement.Delete
I LOVE DAWSON'S CREEK!ReplyDeleteReplies
This is my first time watching it, though I'm loving sweet memories associated with various songs from that time period. Right now, I'm about halfway through season two... Jen and Dawson are casting roles for their movie, Dawson's mom just told Joey that she's like a daughter to her, we just found out that Andi has some degree of mental illness as well, and Pacey just got his first A on a project.Delete
Hi, I just stumbled across your blog and was wondering if you could share what adoption agency you used? My husband and I are prayerfully trying to figure out which country and agency we should look at, and Taiwan is one of three countries we've been considering right now. If you could post it, or email me, I'd really appreciate it! email@example.com
Hi. I found your blog through Grafted In. I'm also a fellow adoptive and bio mom, 12 years into our journey. Great blessings, great heartache. I also live in NC, calling Greensboro. My son is actually in seminary in Wake Forest, NC. I blog at http://www.martysmusings.net if you ever have a moment to look around. God bless!ReplyDelete

Leadership Style is related to our personality
test results. While our personality test results help define "who
we are", we also possess a Leadership Style that defines "how
we best fit" within a leadership team. God did not call His
people to be spiritual "Lone Rangers". He called us to be a "body"...more
specifically, the "Body of Christ". The Bible is very clear that
God positions people within the Body, exactly as He wants them to be.
The Bible is also clear that we who make up the Body of Christ comprise
"many members"...we are not all hands or feet…in today's terms,
we serve a part of a team.
The LEADERSHIP
STYLE assessment plots the individual on a continuum consisting
of six team building roles unique to ministry leadership. The left side
of the continuum consists of highly task-oriented, entrepreneurial leaders.
The right side of the continuum consists of highly relational and
non-task oriented leaders. When team building, a healthy "Three-Cord-Team"
(Ecclesiastes 4:12) will consist of at least three key team members:
· A Team Administrator
(Ensures the details are properly addressed)
· A Team Leader (Leads and motivates the team to accomplish
the mission)
· A Shepherding Leader (Pastors/Encourages the team as they
accomplish the mission)
Sample Report....
Pioneering Leader
Entrepreneurial individuals who need to be involved leading new ministry development
Highly motivated by a noble vision and driven to make the vision a reality
Very task oriented, but view the necessary tasks as steps in a grand mission that will result in a positive impact upon many people
Bring to the team vision, direction, passion and motivation
Value high risk/high reward ministry ventures and will likely be a dominant change agents within the life of an organization
Pioneering Leaders are willing to push themselves and take appropriate risks, striving to discover and reach long term goals: "forgetting what is behind, and straining for what lies ahead" (Philippians 3:12). Pioneering leaders are passionate and are wholly committed to a vision. Paul is a great example of a leader who was focused on pushing out the boundaries of the church, despite the personal risk.
Pioneering Leaders are at their strongest in the early stages of a vision or project, excited by seeking out where God is calling. However, as time passes they may lose interest in the implementation of a vision, eager to be looking ahead to the next challenge. Pioneers are very entrepreneurial. They must be involved in new ministry development. They may also excel in areas of strategic planning, administration or team leadership. However, if Pioneers are asked to serve in such roles without being able to develop new and better ways of accomplishing the work of ministry, they will likely become frustrated.
Pioneers are very task oriented. Pioneers typically claim that they care deeply about people...and will likely cite their passion to reach others for Christ as their justification for developing new ministry systems, programs, and organizations. Because they are naturally vision and task oriented, they may unfortunately be perceived by others as "pushy" or lacking in sensitivity. The Pioneer is typically unaware of how other people may be feeling in this regard. The Pioneer is so motivated by the noble nature of the vision, and the exciting process of creating new and better ministry systems, that they may assume all people are motivated by these same criteria. In fact, most people types are not risk takers like the Pioneer, and are motivated by a sense of stability and security. The values of the Pioneer threaten the values of most people who prefer to move slowly when implementing any change from the status quo. When non-pioneers, who value slow incremental change, are empowered to dictate the pace of an entrepreneurial venture and try to reignin or control the Pioneer, the consequences are typically devastating to all involved as well as to the project. The Pioneer must be empowered to lead. Appropriate support and accountability structures for the Pioneer should be built into the team dynamics of the Pioneer's team.
In a team context, the Pioneer will bring vision, direction, passion and motivation to the team. The Pioneer should be given full responsibility for leading and implementing the various tasks associated with the project. Since the Pioneer is uniquely capable in their ability to grasp a vision, they may find themselves speaking of the future as though it already exists. For them, it does. Their mind already sees themselves in that future state. Pioneers can already sense and feel what it will be like when the new program, system or organization is fully established. This unique ability to "live in the future" may frustrate team members who can only clearly perceive the present. These team members see all the obstacles that must be overcome in the present and may feel overwhelmed by the enormity of it all. Team members may accuse the Pioneer of being a "dreamer". The Pioneer is not blind to such obstacles. The Pioneer, however, is able to envision their way through the obstacles in ways that others cannot. A negative consequence of this special insight ability can be that the Pioneer may not adequately affirm nor address the emotional, conceptual and practical needs of other team members. In such cases, team members may feel that the Pioneer simply disregards their concerns and devalues them as individuals. From the Pioneer's perspective, the more team members raise objections to completing the mission, the more frustrated the Pioneer will become. In his or her frustration, the Pioneer will typically become more forceful in appealing to the vision. The Pioneer may begin to feel that team members are not truly committed to the mission or may spiritually lack the necessary faith to complete the mission.
Because of the relational challenges typically experienced within a team environment, Pioneers should have responsibility over the task elements of a project, while the human elements of the project should be addressed by a Team Leader. Similarly, the Pioneer typically prefers to stay in the "Big Picture" of the project and may become frustrated when having to deal with the fine details associated with a task. Operational details should be addressed by an Administrator. Many Pioneers are excellent Strategic Planners and can create elaborate road map strategies that enable Administrators and Team Leaders to properly fulfill their duties. However, some Pioneers may lack such strategic planning skills. In such cases, a Strategic Planner should be added to the team. And finally, developing new systems, programs and organizations are high risk ventures. Often high risk creates high stress within a team, especially as the project proceeds over many months. The Pioneer is generally ill-equipped to pastor and encourage the team through stress related issues. Every entrepreneurial team should have one team member whose primary responsibility is to pastor and encourage the team members emotionally, spiritually and relationally.
It is important that Pioneering Leaders realize that they cannot accomplish the vision alone...they need their team members and the team members need the Pioneer. 1 Corinthians 12 affirms that the Body of Christ is comprised of many different members who all need one another. It also affirms that God positions the members of the body, just as He has determined. God created the Pioneer and positioned him or her strategically in this world, at this particular time, and within specific churches because God intends for them to create new ministries, systems and organizations that will propel the Kingdom of Christ forward within a world that desperately needs to know the power and love of their Creator God.
The Pioneer typically functions as the Team Leader during the early phases of new ministry development. As the new ministry matures, the Pioneer will need to hand off the ministry to a gifted Team Leader.

Game of the Day: Reading 0 SAFC 2
by Ashley Houghton
Reading 0 Sunderland 2
20th March 2004
Sunderland extended their unbeaten run to five with a 2-0 victory over Reading at the Madejski Stadium.
The Black Cats scored twice in a minute through Tommy Smith and Darren Byfield as the Royals' play-off hopes took a huge dent.
Few chances were created in the first half and when the chances did come it was Jamie Ashdown in the Reading goal that was called into action more often.
The second half saw Sunderland gradually get a better grip on the game and Reading begin to simply hoof it upfield.
Byfield put Sunderland ahead after nipping in between Reading defenders to head past Ashdown.
And almost immediately the Black Cats scored again, Smith cut inside and fired in a shot which Ashdown saved well, however, the ball ricocheted around the six yard box, was cleared off the line by Brown, and finally tucked away by Smith with Ashdown stranded.
The visitors were reduced to ten men after a second yellow card for Jeff Whitley with seven minutes still left but Reading failed to pile on the pressure and Mick McCarthy's side held out for the points.
Sunderland: Poom, Wright, Babb, Breen, McCartney, Thornton (Piper, 73), Oster, Whitley, Thirlwell, Kyle (Smith, 69), Byfield (Cooper, 86).
Subs not used: Williams, Myhre.

Heart of Darkness
by Joseph Conrad
Heart of Darkness Chapter 3 Quotes
How we cite the quotes:
Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote 103
"She walked with measured steps, draped in striped and fringed cloths, treading the earth proudly, with a slight jingle and flash of barbarous ornaments. She carried her head high; her hair was done in the shape of a helmet; she had brass leggings to the knee, brass wire gauntlets to the elbow, a crimson spot on her tawny cheek, innumerable necklaces of glass beads on her neck; bizarre things, charms, gifts of witch-men, that hung about her, glittered and trembled at every step. She must have had the value of several elephant tusks upon her." (3.14)
Notice how Marlow describes this warrior woman's magnificent brass ornaments in terms of their value? We did, too, and we're thinking this isn't much different from judging European women based on the value of their ornaments.
Quote 104
"She was savage and superb, wild-eyed and magnificent; there was something ominous and stately in her deliberate progress. And in the hush that had fallen suddenly upon the whole sorrowful land, the immense wilderness, the colossal body of the fecund and mysterious life seemed to look at her, pensive, as though it had been looking at the image of its own tenebrous and passionate soul." (3.14)
Just like the Intended is a symbol of civilization, with its fires and its tea and its couches, the warrior woman is a symbol of the wilderness—elephant tusks and all.
Quote 105
"Her face had a tragic and fierce aspect of wild sorrow and of dumb pain mingled with the fear of some struggling, half-shaped resolve. She stood looking at us without a stir, and like the wilderness itself, with an air of brooding over an inscrutable purpose." (3.15)
Is this just an individual woman who's worried about Kurtz—or is this really the wilderness, ticked off that these white men are ripping through the jungle?

Can't express how thankful I am that the Boogaloo Assassins came into our studios here at KPFK. The band performed 6 songs, at the start, "Para Mi," "Do You Wanna Dance," and their blistering cover of Dawn Penn's "No No No" and then after the interview you hear their version of Eddie Palmieri's "Ay Que Rico" (one of my all-time favorite Boogaloo tracks), "Mi Heva" and the finale is a soul-clap-tastic cover of Joe Bataan's "Magic Rose". During the interview I talk with the band about how they found their way to this sound, the benefits and pitfalls of playing a retro style without a scene and their plans for the future, which thankfully and finally include some recordings (on vinyl no less!!!). Only unfortunate thing was that I didn't have my camera to take some pictures, but perhaps next time. What we do have is an amazing performance from a dynamite band with the best yet to come.
