If UCLA has a nemesis in its recent March Madness past, it's got to be the Florida Gators.
Just three years ago, Billy Donovan's Gators dropped Ben Howland's Bruins in the second round by eight points. In 2006 Florida beat UCLA 73-57 to win the National Championship and the following year the re-match was in the national semi-finals with the defending champion Gators beating the defending runners-up Bruins by ten.
Could the fourth time be the charm for UCLA?
We'll know later tonight when the South Region's fourth seeded UCLA Bruins (28-8) take on the overall tournament and region's top-seed Florida Gators (34-2) in a Sweet 16 match-up in Memphis.
Billy Donovan's still on the Gator's bench leading them into tonight's showdown riding a 28-game winning streak.
For UCLA, the Bruins are led by first-year head coach Steve Alford. Taking over for Ben Howland who was fired after last season's opening round loss to Minnesota, Alford's led the Bruins to five straight post-season wins taking the PAC-12 Tournament Championship and the opening two games of the NCAA's in impressive fashion.
He doesn't really pay much attention to the recent history between the two schools because it's just that – history. But he can't get away from it and leading up to tonight's game he addressed the history head on.
"We know we've got a lot of challenges with Florida, so everybody might as well throw in the history too," Alford said during Wednesday's press conference in Memphis. "I don't know if the history's going to play much into the game, but it's just one more challenge that we try to get over."
The challenge for the Bruins will be to do what they do which is score a lot of points (82 ppg average) - against one of the top-rated defensive teams in the country. The Gators allow a paltry 57 points per game.
"We don't want to get into a matchup where it's our good offense versus their very good defense," said UCLA sophomore guard Kyle Anderson. "We want to present ourselves on the defensive end as well, and that's what's going to win this game, which team is better on defensively."
The Bruins have a two-to-one ratio in assists to turnovers – which is really good. ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas said of the Bruins, "A two-to-one ratio in assists to turnovers is excellent for a single player let alone an entire team like the Bruins."
If UCLA can set its fast-paced tempo against the Gators, the Bruins can pull the upset.
That's what a trio of former Bruins who currently play for the Los Angeles Clippers believe.
To hear from center Ryan Hollins and guard Darren Collison – who were part of those Final Four teams that lost to Florida – and forward Matt Barnes – who played in Westwood from 1998 to 2002 – click on the video.
Tonight's UCLA-Florida game is set to tip-off from Memphis at 7:05 PDT. The winner takes on the Dayton-Stanford winner in Saturday's Elite Eight South Regional Title Game for a trip to the Final Four.

Eating to Live on the Outside: Nile Ethiopian Restaurant
It's Saturday. Time for the Eating to Live on the Outside road show. And today we're "off" to Nile Ethiopian Restaurant in Virginia. How does it stack up? I like it. Here's a quick list of stuff I might order.
- Whole lentils cooked and mashed, seasoned lime juice and mustard; lentils are awesome. Just make sure you don't order lentils if you're out on a date. Toot, toot!
Ater Kik Alicha
- Yellow split peas cooked in mildly flavored sauce, seasoned with garlic and ginger; looks good to me. It's hard to go wrong with garlic.
- Finely chopped collard green seasoned with garlic and ginger; collard greens are always a winner for me.
Tekel Gomen
- Green cabbage seasoned with fresh garlic and ginger; cabbage is cool, just watch out for the toot-toots here too.
- String beans and carrots cooked in a mild caramelized onion sauce; string beans are great. I like them when they're a tad undercooked. They're crispier that way.
Now, if I REALLY had to pick something. I'd go with the go with the Gomen. I eat collard greens a lot. So I'll stick with the sure thing. What about you? What would you order? Check out Nile's menu and let know.

Norwegian Pearl Cruise Review by Karen Fohl: Best cruise ever
Overall Member Rating
Best cruise ever
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Miami
This was our first cruise on NCL (3 previous cruises)- our best ever. This line is very efficient. We booked easily on their website. Embarkation debarkation were flawless. We enjoyed not having to get up at the crack of dawn to disembark- they were very flexible. The ship was new and beautiful- although there were over 2,000 passengers, it never felt crowded.
The rooms were spacious and thoughtfully designed. The beds had fresh crisp sheets with down comforters. The service was superb everywhere on the ship. Excellent choice of restaurants-and the food was a delight in all. We appreciated being able to select the restaurant and time we wanted to dine each night. We never had a problem making a reservation. We dined in two restaurants with an additional charge but we found it well worth the extra price. The quality and selection of the food in the buffet was surprising. The entertainment was better than most ships.
Chairs available on the ship during "travel" days More were somewhat limited as many guests "reserved" chairs for hours while not there- this was a bit frustrating. Otherwise it was a very relaxing enjoyable cruise and which we would highly recommend. Less

Kanye West Really Feeling New Sample of Kanye West
By JFKilla
PARIS – While recording for his new album, Kanye West has informed TRI reporters that he is "really feeling the incredible new sample" of himself that he will be including on at least every track on his new album.
West said that all he had done was record a hook for a song, and listen to it again afterwards, before deciding that it was worthy of being sampled.
"Yeah man, like I was in the studio, and uh, I was recording this hook – one fuck of a hook I might add – that went somethin' like 'I'm the king of the universe, fuck you, haah', and I mean once I played that shit back, I immediately knew that I needed to sample it for every song on the album."
While many may view the sampling of oneself as absolutely the stupidest fucking thing they've ever heard of, and completely pointless, West is confident he's discovered a new form of music-making and has revolutionized the rap game yet again.
"This idea may go down as the greatest innovation in the history of rap, since the last time I revolutionized it. I'm just so impressed with myself for coming up with this idea."
West is not without his supporters, either. Former G.O.O.D Music member and fellow maker of "the most incredible music humanity has ever been blessed to listen to, ever," Kid Cudi, supports his friend's "ingenious" plan.
"Son, you don't even understand how fuckin' bad I envy him right now. Here I am ad-libbing my way through songs, and randomly humming off-key and shit, thinking I'm revolutionizing music and art, and out of nowhere my man Yeezy comes and blesses all aspects of sound with the concept of sampling yourself. Sampling your-fucking-self. Why didn't I think of that?"
Cudi later told reporters he plans on sampling Beluga whale mating calls for future albums.

I posted this in the equipment forum and thought it might be better here. I hope no one objects to my posting this twice.I am looking at purchasing an anschutz bolt action pistol in 17hmr. I have read some of the posts about putting rifle scopes on pistols (contenders). I would like to ask for more information on this subject from those who have first hand experience with this. -- Which rifle scope offers the longest eye relief? Is it needed?-- What setup works for you? Im looking at 17 hmr caliber as stated above.-- Once you mount a rifle scope, this would never be shot at arms length in the traditional pistol shooting position. Correct?Any other input would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

I use a Remington XP-100 in 223 occasionally and I have a long eye relief pistol scope on it but if I did it all over again I would go with a scout type scope where the eye relief is 12-18". My pistol scope requires that the scope be over 2 feet from the eye so it is only comfoprtable to shoot off a bench. Even prone with a bipod is uncomfortable because you cannot get back far enough to use it.I've seen the rifle scopes on them but holding the pistol 3-4" from my eye is just as uncomfortable. You may as well be using a rifle then.

I have a 17 HMR barrel on one of my Contender frames. Here's a picture of it with a Burris Short Mag 4-14.5 scope on it.It is a rifle scope and for how the gun is used is what I recommend. If you look back for posts by Bill D. you'll see he uses rifle scopes on his too. This scope gives me over 4 inches of eye relief. Since there is no recoil and you'll be using it off of a rest or shooting sticks you are able to get decent power in a scope. You just don't free hand these guns for any accuracy at distance so you need the extra power scopes. It shoots like a dream I really enjoy the round in this size gun.
Posted 07 September 2006 - 09:55 PM
prvtpyle,Espeically with the rimfires, the rifle scopes work great for me. I do shoot both rifle and pistol scopes on handguns. Up around the the 22-250 caliber most rifle scopes don't have enough eye relief to keep the scope away from my nose. A17Shooter

text: Prepare for polling with some politically-named pets Posted on Nov 05 , 2012 by Bethany, associate producer Print Home > Blog > Adorable adoptables > Prepare for polling with some politically-named pets Tags: politics I don't know about all of you, but my personal Twitter and Facebook feeds have been full of friends' political posts. Some are well-researched and full of serious thought, others are somewhat less so. It's almost enough to make a person never want to hear the names of politicians again. Mr. President is appropriately named. But then, I thought of a way to get over that — cute adoptable Petfinder pets. I've always loved being able to look up pets by species, breed, age, location, size and even behavioral characteristics such as housetraining, special needs and if the pet gets along with other pets. I also recently found that I can look up pets by name. I've already looked up pets with the same name as my brother, sister, mom, dad, best friends and boyfriend. Politicians were a sensible next step at the end of the election season. Feast your eyes on adorable adoptables named for the major presidential candidates! Check out one of the pets named Obama: Obama of the Humane Society of Camden County is adorable! And here is one of the pets named Mitt: Mitts is a sweet cat looking for a home. And not to leave out the third party candidates I also checked out the pets named Jill, We wonder if adoptable Jill is living a "green" life like her candidate. those named Rocky Rocky might be an independent rabbit, but he needs a loving adoptive home. and those named Gary: We hope Gary finds someone free to love him. Finally, the name that unites a diverse crowd of citizens, one of the pets named America: America the beautiful is certainly an apt song for this gorgeous dog. Share this Article: Print

Tis Good to Be a Princess
a new revelationMay 18th 2011 1:23 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 3 people already have ]
Wow I actually kinda like wet food! I now eat almost 1 1/2 oz for breakfast, and the same for dinner. I am still getting a kibble lunch - Merrick BG chicken. But that is pretty darn good for a girl that would only eat about 1/2 tsp of wet at night in total for the day! The funny thing is that the past few days, I have been especially sproingy & even more playful. The Dad even said that maybe it is from eating more wet food. So it can happen, even with a more reluctant girl. I may not get all the way over completely to wet, but Mom says that if it is 3/4 wet that is pretty whiskering good! We are hoping that the weather will cooperate so that the plastic can be removed from the screened porch. Mom had a few of Nana's odds & ends stored out there, so she did not want them to get wet, and it has been rather chilly after our heatwave, but I love to sit out there & watch the outside from the safe side of the screen! Tigger seems to be doing much better. Mom says he needs to eat more, and I know he wants some when I get my lunch. Mom has to close the door while I eat so he is not as tempted. I have also been borrowing Smitty's cardboard scratcher. I love it. You must sit on it & then scratch cause it will slide. Mom only got a cheapie one in case it didn't go over well with us, but we all use it. Poor Tigger has not figured out that he must sit upon it, and he slides all over with it. So I overheard The Dad tell Mom this morning that they must purchase a larger one for us! Meowska!! SO for now I shall go & take my beauty nap, and hope at the next post things will bring even better news. and well, now I just knocked Mom's coffee cup off the desk, and it broke & spilt coffee all over the place - and it just HAD to be one of Nana's cups eek - so my assistant must clean it up as I supervise. purrs, the princess

Hehe I broke a glass the other day too! And it was while my mom was sleeping and she had to get up and clean it up. Haha!
I love my cardboard scratcher too.

The various proposals to establish or re-establish train service between Las Vegas and Los Angeles still seem to be stuck in their respective stations. Ever since Senator Harry Reid withdrew support for the Maglev train concept, the 4 or 5 different proposals have not been able to fulfill their promise of connecting the two major metro areas. The Desert Express derided by some as the train to nowhere is still hoping to connect Las Vegas with Victorville albeit without a clear funding source. The other proposals such as the two conventional rail proposals, X train and Z train and the high speed option Genesis High Speed Rail have run into funding and/or permission to run over Union Pacific tracks. Amtrak has no immediate plans to reinstate rail.
A new funding source could help Nevada, the lead of the effort, California, Arizona and Colorado start to build a new rail system, courtesy of Florida Governor Rick Scott who refused the governments offer of $2.4 billion to build a high speed line between Tampa and Orlando. Scott refused the offer because he believed the state could not afford the long term maintenance costs. The funds sought would be to start a system that would connect Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Denver, Phoenix and Los Angeles. The proposal for a western rail network, is being developed by the Las Vegas-based Western High Speed Rail Alliance.The alliance http://www.whsra.com/ operates within the Nevada transportation department.
"Nevada's proposal will be competing with several states that are further along in their development of high-speed rail systems, including California, Wisconsin and New Mexico. Amtrak's bid to further develop its Northeast Corridor routes will be considered, as well as proposals from Washington, D.C., New York and Massachusetts.
The funding request does not involve the DesertXpress high-speed rail plan to connect Las Vegas with Victorville, Calif., which is being developed privately. DesertXpress has a federal loan application pending to finance the $6 billion project.
The Western High Speed Rail Alliance has asked lawmakers to change current law that prevents qualified consortiums of metropolitan planning organizations, local transportation authorities and local governments to apply directly for federal intercity high-speed rail funding. Until that happens, the organization is working under the umbrella of the Nevada Transportation Department.
The alliance sent letters to key House and Senate committee leaders saying "that permitting MPOs and other entities with substantial transportation planning experience to apply directly for federal high speed rail funds would incentivize cooperation among regions, advance the intensity of high speed rail planning in the U.S., and provide for 'last mile' corridors within our jurisdictions that connect to other modes of transportation." Vegas Inc. April 6 www.vegasinc.com.
Los Angeles, as the western terminus for this system would see an increase in both passengers and trains. LA and California residents would benefit from a high speed rail network that would tie in to the LA - SF high speed rail line. Maybe this new plan can make some headway?

Offa, king of the Mercians (757 – 96), son of Thingfrith the son of Eanwulf, was first cousin to Æthelbald 4, king of the Mercians (716 – 757). Offa 7 became king of the Mercians after driving out Æthelbald 4's short-lived successor, Beornred 1. By the end of his reign Offa 7 was the most powerful king in England and, to varying extents, exercised lordship over Sussex, Kent, Essex and East Anglia, although it is unlikely that he exercised any direct lordship over Wessex or Northumbria. His reign has come to be viewed as a period of significant military and urban development in the face of Viking depredations.

Tulane director of volleyball Sinisa Momic has his team at 1-1 in Conference USA play
Sept. 29, 2013
NEW ORLEANS - Sets one and two propelled Tulane volleyball past UTEP on Sunday at Devlin Fieldhouse after the Green Wave posted a .420 hitting percentage during the first two games, giving Tulane their first Conference USA victory of the season in four sets.
Tulane (14-2, 1-1) bested UTEP (7-6, 1-1) by scores of 25-20 in the first two sets before the Miners recorded a 25-16 victory in the third game. Tulane came back in the fourth set after having difficulty in the third to win the match, 25-22.
As a team, the Green Wave hit .312, thanks in part to hitting .368 and .484 in the first and second sets, respectively. Tulane regressed a bit in the third set, hitting only .156, but came back in the fourth game to take the match.
"I think we dominated the first two games," said Tulane director of volleyball Sinisa Momic. "Our goal was to outplay them at the net. We obviously had a height advantage, although they passed very well. They used their best player, Xitlali Herrera, very well. We followed our game strategy pretty well. Some players stepped up, and some didn't play as well. The positive is that after we were outmatched in game three, we came out focused to control the game. We got a victory against a good team today."
Freshman Tea Juric paced Tulane with 14 kills. Senior Cori Martone notched a double-double with 13 kills and 10 digs, while freshman Annie Shurtz also had a double-double with 12 kills and 10 digs.
Junior libero Grace Weaver led Tulane in digs with 21, while also adding a service ace on the afternoon.
Senior setter Mel Mandelbaum was the Tulane pacesetter in assists with 50, while tying Martone for the team lead in service aces with two.
Junior Anna Wruck led the team at the net with four total blocks (one solo), while Martone chipped in three block assists. Freshman Sarah Strasner had two block assists.
Tulane came out strong in the first set, thanks in part to Shurtz's six kills. Martone notched her two service aces during the game. Tulane managed to lead for the entire game. In the second set, Tulane hit even better than their previous set, with Juric notching seven of her 14 kills during the action. UTEP only hit .194 during the game, but led out of the gate. After Tulane tied it at eight, there was only two other ties during the set that was mostly dominated by the Green Wave.
After the break, however, Tulane had their poorest hitting percentage of the match, while only recording nine digs - compared to 17 in both sets one and two - and no blocks. UTEP, on the other hand, hit .400 as a team to earn their lone victory of the match.
However, Tulane was able to put the Miners away in the fourth set that saw Mandelbaum post back-to-back service aces, while Juric added one. Martone led the way in the fourth game with four kills, and the Green Wave had three total blocks at the net.
Sunday's result was much different from last year when the two teams squared off. In El Paso, Texas, on Oct. 28, the Miners won in five sets, despite a double-double from Mandelbaum.
Tulane will play their final non-Conference USA match of the regular season on Tuesday as they play host to Lamar at Devlin Fieldhouse. The match will begin at 7pm CT. Live stats will be made available on TulaneGreenWave.com, while live video will be available to paid members of the All-Access Pass.
Single game tickets will be available for $6 for adults, $5 for seniors and $4 for children.
Season tickets for Tulane volleyball are $55 for adults and $35 for youth, ages three to 14. For single-game ticket information, contact the Tulane Athletics Ticket Office at (504) 861-WAVE (9283). Group discounts are available when ten or more tickets are purchased.
The Tulane Ticket Office is located on the first floor of the James W. Wilson, Jr. Center and is open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. For additional information, log onto the official website at www.TulaneGreenWave.com.
Fans can follow the Green Wave volleyball program on Twitter (GreenWaveVB) or on Facebook at facebook.com/GreenWaveVolleyball.

As part of its regular assessments of the nation's schools, NAEP has reported results for charter schools since 2000. In 2003, extra fourth-grade charter schools were sampled for a special study.
A number of sources were used to construct the final sample of charter schools. Information from local school administrators, follow-up interviews, and field staff was used to update and verify data from the 2003 NAEP school questionnaire. Ultimately, 150 schools were identified as charter schools, including 12 additional schools not originally identified as charter schools on the NAEP website at the time of the 2003 NAEP data release.
View the performance results in the NAEP Data Explorer based on the representative sample of 150 schools that were identified as charter schools for the pilot study. To view charter school data, select "Go to Quick Start" from the NDE start screen. Then, select grade 4, reading or mathematics subject area, and "National Public" as the jurisdiction on the Select Criteria screen. In the section called "Variables," select "School identified as charter" under "Major Reporting Groups."

'Star Wars Episode 7' is currently filming at the Pinewood Studios in London, England and over the last week the Hollywood gossip website TMZ has released and leaked over 60 plus photos from the offical 'Star Wars' set. Included in the photos were evidence that the famous ship flown by 'Han Solo' himself, the 'Millennium Falcon' would be part of Episode 7. It's very surprising to see any leaks from a Bad Robot production as JJ Abrams has always been a big proponent of the 'mystery box' style of story-telling. This morning JJ took to the Bad Robot twitter account and reveled a photo as well as a hand written note pleading for people to stop leaking photos.
It reads- 'I wish people would stop leaking photos from Episode VII and making ridiculous claims that the Millennium Falcon is in the movie JJ.'
The note is quite tongue and cheek as it's laying on the infamous holographic chessboard from inside the Falcon. The chess board is actually called a Dejarik table. 'Chewbacca' and 'R2-D2' played a game on Dejarik table in Episode 4 'A New Hope,' and that scene gave us the iconic line, 'Let the Wookiee win'. The jury is still out if in fact the TMZ leak was legit. There are very intelligent people that are members of the brain-trust at 'Lucasfilm', 'Disney' and 'Bad Robot'. We could be witnessing the most elaborate and thought out marketing plan ever conceived. Regardless its seems that Lucasfilm head honcho Kathleen Kennedy was correct when she said they would get JJ to soften on his stance about providing story information. JJ is being devilishly playful with the audience which is why he is the perfect magician to lead us back to the galaxy far far away. What do you think? Sound off below!
Star Wars: Episode VII lands in theaters worldwide on December 18, 2015 Featuring John Boyega, Gwendoline Christie, Daisy Ridley, Lupita Nyong'o, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, and Max von Sydow as they are joined the stars of the original trilogy, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, and Kenny Baker. It's being directed by J.J. Abrams from a screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan and Abrams. Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Bryan Burk are producing, with John Williams returns as the composer.

How to Account for Selling Stock
Original post by Leslie McClintock of Demand Media
At its most basic level, accounting for the sale of a stock is simple. You keep a record of your tax basis in the stock (or your broker will keep a record for you, if the stock is publicly traded). When you sell the stock, however, you should be prepared to pay a tax on any gains you received, either short-term or long-term. The process with non-publicly traded stocks is the same, but the record keeping is more critical. Special circumstances and considerations apply when the stock sale is part of a business acquisition deal.
Step 1
Subtract the value of the stock from the asset column on your balance sheet.
Step 2
Add whatever cash you received for the stock to the asset column on your balance sheet. If you accounted for the stock purchase on your cash flow statement, add the cash received for the purchase as revenue on the same document. But don't spend all the money, if you sold at a gain. Unless you have capital losses to cancel out your gains, you will need to pay either a short-term capital gains tax to the Internal Revenue Service equal to your marginal income tax bracket if you held the security for less than a year, or a lower capital gains rate for longer-term holdings. If you are using the accrual system of accounting, add your estimated capital gains tax on the transaction to the liabilities column on your balance sheet.
Step 3
Subtract the price you received from the price you paid, or your tax basis in the stock. Bear in mind, though, that if you buy the stock in a tax-deductible retirement account, your tax basis is zero, and your sale won't qualify for capital gains tax treatment. If the stock remains in the retirement account, there is no tax consequence whatsoever.
Step 4
Look for a 1099 form from your brokerage company, if applicable. This form will list your tax basis in the stock as well as the sales price. Your broker will send this form to the IRS, which will use it as a check and balance against your tax return. You can use this form to help you with your accounting and record keeping.
Step 5
Carry forward the tax basis on inventory and assets on any company sold, if the sale was structured as a stock sale. When one entity acquires another corporation through the transfer of stock, the buyer inherits the tax basis of the seller. If the sale was structured as an asset purchase rather than a stock purchase, however, the buyer would receive a favorable "step-up" in cost basis, assuming he paid more for the business assets than the original owner.
Tips & Warnings
- Section 338 of the Internal Revenue Code allows businesses to treat some stock sales as asset sales for the purposes of calculating tax basis. This arrangement tends to favor the buyer. These rules are complicated, so consult with an experienced tax adviser or attorney specializing in business acquisitions if this situation applies to you.

Nik Collection by Google has announced a new free upgrade to their Nik Collection, Analog Efex Pro , Version 2. This upgrade to Analog Efex Pro is a pretty significant one. Nik has simplified the interface while making it more robust. They have also made the upgrade process for users much easier. In the past, Nik Software made the attempt to upgrade users "automatically". The idea was that the software would be told of an update at its start up then installs that update automatically. This was a hit or miss procedure at best, with the worst case being the software wouldn't start at all. Many users found the best work around to this situation was to simply download a "trial" version of Nik Collection then the software made the update automatically to current registered users. With this current update, Nik has foregone their past update voodoo and now simply tells users to download and install the trial version. Now, that's progress!
The idea behind the Analog Efex Pro module is to allow the user to emulate the effects of using "analog" photographic tools and processes. You can select the type of camera to use, like a wet plate camera. This will allow the user to emulate all the effects of using the same type of camera used by Mathew Brady or Roger Fenton back in the 19th century. Not only will you get the spectrum wavelength simulation of those black & white images, but you'll also get the effects of wet plate handling like scratched, cracked plates, or smudged emulsions. Very cool. Now, you don't have to go that far back in time however. You can select a "Vintage" or "Classic" camera that emulates using a 1960s SLR camera using Kodachrome slide film or Tri-X black & white film. For photographers that have used film cameras or worked in the darkroom, you'll know what to do. For those who have no experience with that, it will give you the opportunity for exploration and discovery. What's interesting about all of this is? You can mix and match these effects and create "Filter Stacks"allowing you to create a "color wet plate" images or control all of the disasters of using a Holga toy camera creatively. Keep in mind that as a Photoshop plug-in filter, these effects can be place on one or more image layers.
In the interface there's a new feature, the History Stack. Now you can go back through your creative process and make changes. There's also a newly designed Camera Selection Tool that's now more dynamic. It allows you to view previews of camera filters at a glance and allows access to presets without having to go to the Preset Panel. Plus using the Edit Controls with the History controls, you are offered greater creative freedom and flexibility. As with all Nik Collection modules, you can create custom presets for use later, along with using presets when batch processing folders of images.
So, if you already own the Nik Collection go and download the new version. If you don't own it, check out the trial version for 15 days. The entire Nik Collection is $149.00. Any one of its editing modules is worth that alone, so check it out.

A 911 dispatcher got a call from her fiance for help when the couple's son was choking. According to NBC Bay Area, dispatcher Britney Melchor answered the line when her fiance called in a panic. Melchor learned that her son was choking... and she did what she needed to do to help. The boy's father had been moving some furniture when the baby got into something he shouldn't have: He tried to swallow a metal washer -- but it got lodged in his throat.
Dad Robert Kimball said:
"As it progressed and he started having more trouble breathing, it got to a bright red and then he just went pale in the face."
The 911 dispatcher didn't realize it was her fiance calling for help at first. It wasn't until she was given her home address that she realized that it was her son that was choking. While paramedics were in route to Melchor's house, she stayed on the phone with her fiance and talked him through some procedures. Melchor and Kimball's efforts helped clear the child's airway and ultimately saved his life.
Britney Melchor explained:
"Mommy mode kinda hit. Like, 'That's my son.' I panicked. But then, I was like, 'You know what, I gotta get him the help that he absolutely needs.'"
The 911 dispatcher and fiance managed to help their son by way of a phone call. It's something that 911 dispatchers are often credited with, but usually don't really understand the magnitude of the job first hand. Now that Melchor was sort of on both ends (and at the same time, no less), she says that she has an even better understanding of the importance of her job.

Perfect match

Kendall Ryan Sanders, a 16 year-old veteran child actor, is sneaking through the gates of Hollywood. If you don't know him, you haven't been watching enough television and film. Sanders most prominent guest star appearances to date include Revolution, Navy NCIS, Big Love, Criminal Minds, Nip/Tuck, HBO's 12 Miles of Bad Road, and Passions.
Sanders' career ignited in his hometown of Atlanta, where he went through an acting competition brought about by Actors, Models, & Talent for Christ (AMTC). At the tender age of seven, he took the gold, winning the Overall Main Child Actor award. The Sanders family then headed for Los Angeles to pursue Kendall's acting career, where he now resides part-time. Kendall has two siblings of which he is the youngest.
The talented actor is primarily known for his role as Tony Myers on Nickelodeon's comedy TV show Every Witch Way. He is also the voice of Rod Best in Disney's movie The Odd Life of Timothy Green, and was a featured voice in Warner Bros' animated film The Ant Bully. He has perfected his talent in acting with acting coach Dennis Lavalle, whose motto states, "The harder you work, the luckier you get!" And Kendall persists on pounding the Hollywood pavement to the top.
In my interview with Kendall he revealed his favorite project so far has been Every Witch Way because he enjoyed the union he shared with his cast members. He loves television for the very reason it allows him to create a bond with his cast - almost like family.
When asked who his current influencers are Kendall stated, "The actors I look up to are Liam Neeson and Will Smith. I aspire to be like Will Smith for his ability to play roles in both the comedy and drama genres." He loves both genres, but if he had to stick to one it would certainly be comedy.
Sanders also shared his celebrity crush to be Ms. Ariana Grande!
You can catch Kendall Sanders' recent guest star role on Disney's I Didn't Do It airing June 2014. He is also set to play in another feature film Normal Like Me alongside actor Kevin Sorbow.
To stay connected with Sanders, follow him on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
Kendall Ryan Sanders is represented by one of the most notable PR and marketing firms in Los Angeles, YM & Associates, spearheaded by Yvette Morales.

Fifteen-year old Lizzie Sider has made great gains in her quest to become one of the hottest female country artists. And in the process, she's managed to score HateBraker Hero status for her efforts to combat bullying.
In addition to being honored by the nonprofit HateBrakers, Sider will be the featured entertainer at the second annual HateBraker Heroes Awards on Monday, May 19, at the Hilton Frontenac in St. Louis, Mo. During the ceremony, Sider will be the featured entertainer, her PR rep reported in a May 10 email, where she will perform her original song, "Butterfly," a tune she co-wrote about her own experiences of being teased, ridiculed and excluded by other children and how she overcame the pain.
As for her HateBraker Hero honor, Sider's captured the recognition because of her work to help others overcome the horrors of being bullied, as well as for her own moral courage to become a leader and a role model in the quest to raise awareness of, and to help stop, bullying.
"I am humbled to be a role model for so many young people," Sider told Examiner on May 12. "It is such an honor and a privilege."
As part of her self-initiated campaign to promote bullying prevention, Sider has toured schools in California, Texas and Florida to present assemblies in which she shares her own personal stories of teasing with students. At these assemblies, she shared her message that above all else, "Nobody has the power to ruin your day!" At the end of the 2013-2014 school year, Sider will have met with nearly 100,000 students.
Susan Balk, founding Director of HateBrakers, said via a media release, "Lizzie mustered the courage to rise above bullying and tell her story to the world. Whenever a room full of children hear her sing 'Butterfly,' about how she stopped hiding and learned to fly, they understand that they can do it, too. She's a powerhouse of healing, and she's not even old enough to drive!"
For more info on Sider, who's currently working on her first full-length studio album for release later this year, please visit her official website.

Additional details have been revealed for Sony's E3 2014 plans. According to a report from Cheat Code Central on June 6, the company is holding a press conference at 6 p.m. PST on June 9 although the official live stream will begin 15 minutes beforehand. In addition to other media outlets, fans will be able to watch the event on the official Playstation website, Ustream as well as the Playstation Blog.
Sony is expected to provide some new videos on "Drive Club," "The Last of Us Remastered" and "The Order 1886." Furthermore, the company should further showcase "Project Morpheus," the virtual reality headset of the PS4. "Destiny," which appeared during the same press conference last year, was recently confirmed to be in Sony's E3 2014 media briefing. Finally, "Battlefield Hardline" may also be showcased as Sony is apparently sending out codes for the multiplayer beta of the first-person shooter.
The console manufacturer also provided a list of games for the PS4, PS4 and Vita that will be in the booths on the show floor. Aside from the aforementioned products, the notable titles include "Diablo 3: The Ultimate Evil Edition," "Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number," "Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 Remix" and "Planetside 2." You can find the full list of booth games from the official U.S. Playstation Blog website.
Similar to last year, Sony's press conference is the last one of the day, following Electronic Arts, Microsoft and Ubisoft. As a result, it gives the company the opportunity to react to the main competition. For example, Sony was able to announce the $399.99 price tag for the PS4 hours after Microsoft confirmed that the Xbox One is launching at $499.99.
Sony will most likely update the sale figures of the PS4, which sold 7 million units based on the last report. The new console currently has a healthy lead over the Wii U and Xbox One since launching late last year. An image featuring one of the aforesaid games, "The Order 1886," can be seen near the top of this article (courtesy of the Playstation Facebook page).

Based on statistics, the world title match between WBO titleholder Adrian "The Problem" Broner and number one challenger Eloy "The Prince" Perez should be an extremely close razor's edge type of affair when they meet on Saturday.
Extremely close.
Broner, 22, has that cocky confidence mixed with eye-popping athleticism and well-honed skills that have kept him unbeaten.
Perez, 25, has that street bred hunger to excel against more physically gifted opposition and he excels as the constant underdog.
The next step toward a more lucrative and fulfilling career takes place at St. Louis on Feb. 25, when Broner (22-0, 18 KOs) and Perez (23-0-2, 7 KOs) physically and mentally test each other's abilities. HBO will televise the Golden Boy Promotions event.
Amid the boxing world few outside of the hardcore fan know about Broner or Perez. Among casual sports fans they're even less known. But on Saturday those lucky enough to watch the fight between undefeated pugilists will be witnessing one or the other's real step into stardom.
Cincinnati's Broner has been boxing since he was old enough to attend kindergarten and living in the Midwest city.
"I see Aaron Pryor and Tim Austin all the time. I see these guys a lot, they come around the gym they're good guys," said Broner whose last win was by knockout over Vicente Rodriguez. "I talk to all of them."
The town known as "the Queen City" has produced a number of pro boxing's finest prizefighters in history. Pryor, Austin, Ezzard Charles and a number of others have burned a place in the history books for their exploits.
One major tip Pryor gave to Broner has been etched in the 22-year-old's brain bank.
"Pryor told me stay in shape. 'As long as you're in shape nobody can beat you,' he told me," said Broner.
So far the quick-fisted, agile moving junior lightweight has proven pretty capable of maintaining the status quo.
"To me they're all the same," said Broner about past and future challengers. "Going against me it doesn't matter who they are, they're going to leave with another loss."
Just like the champion Broner, challenger Perez has never tasted defeat in his pro career.
"When he gets in the ring he's going to know what it feels like to fight someone as good as he is. It's not going to be an easy night," said Perez, who has been a prizefighter for more than six years.
Perez began boxing in the Northwest and eventually moved south to California where he found a second home in Salinas. Sports of all kinds were an outlet for the dynamo.
In the ever-growing boxing gyms of Northern California he found another outlet for his boundless energy and quickly became a crowd favorite. It was a reliable asset that he used against supposedly bigger, stronger and faster opponents.
"It don't matter what kind of fight it is," says Perez, whose last win was a knockout over Ira Terry. "I'm not a matchmaker, I'm not a promoter. I'll fight anybody they put in front of me."
Lately, Perez has wielded seemingly new found power as proven by his back-to-back knockout victories.
"It's just my body changing. I'm getting stronger, better, and faster," claims Perez.
Both Perez and Broner are confident of victory. And why not? It's that cockiness in their own abilities that has brought them to this point.
"I don't care what he's packing, how hard he hits, that don't mean nothing if you can't hit nothing," Broner says.
The challenger believes he's the antidote for "the Problem."
"He has problems against Mexican fighters," Perez counters.
Undefeated fighters like these are hard to come by.
"It's going to be an explosive night for boxing," said David Itskowitch, COO of Golden Boy Promotions.
Hum, huh! Holla!
@Radam @TSSU I guess this is as good a place as any to tell you about one of boxing's best kept secrets. Finally, there is a fighter who is a throw back to the men of yesteryear. An undefeated Jr. Lightweight who is young, insanely talented, and literally wants to fight everybody. He already has a belt, but won't consider himself a true world champion until he cleans out his weight division. His name: Bryan Vazquez. He is the mandatory for WBA Champ Takashi Uchiyama.
When I tell you he wants everybody, I literally mean everybody. He has seen all the potential opponents, and wants each and every one of them. Bryan doesn't grasp the concept of fighting twice per year. BV: Every month. Me: Every month? BV: Si, every month. J-Lights, you've been warned.
I'm going to have to get peep at Bryan Vazquez. If he can roll through Takashi Uchiyama without too many road bumps, than he is somebody to keep an eye. Holla!
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

Grand Island Preschooler Asked to Change the Sign for His Name in School
someone need to get over it; I would tell them to "go pound salt".Quote:
He's deaf, and his name sign, they say, is a violation of their weapons policy," explained Hunter's father, Brian Spanjer.
Grand Island's "Weapons in Schools" Board Policy 8470 forbids "any instrument...that looks like a weapon," But a three year-old's hands?
Grand Island Preschooler Asked to Change the Sign for His Name in School
just an FYI; I had to look it up: The phrase "go pound salt" orginated in the early days of commercial salt mine operations in the US. There were a number of specific jobs performed by people who worked in the mine. The lowest paying and most menial job was pounding large rocks into smaller crystals that could be used for cooking and curing of meats. This job was usually given to those deemed less intelligent (the village idiot, if you will) or those who could find no other gainful employment.

Likes: Rei, Chris, The beach, and being a giantess
Dislikes: Anyone who thinks their better then other people.
Skin: Caucasian white skin with a 5% tan in there.
Favorite Place: She loves going to the beaches in Laguna Beach as she loves hanging out there. She loves to get out into the ocean lifting her skirt up and lowering her panties to the ground near the very ocean to touch boats for fun.
Favorite Underwear: She wears the black bra and panties.
Favorite Bikini: She wears a sexier version. Which consists of a tight black bikini top that barely hangs on to her breasts and a black thong that is very sexy and tight as she loves to lay on the ocean and let everything crash into her.
Favorite Giantess Move: When she enters a city she'll occasionally bow down and smile at the people then lifts up her skirt and let the people have fun there.
Voice: She has a voice similar to Rita Mordio from Tales of Vesperia
Powers: Besides being big she has the ability to grow to endless heights. But unlike every other girl in my OC collection she has the ability of reading anyone's mind and actually use that to her advantage. Though their are people who she can't read. One in particular is Chris.
Height: 1 mile to endless
Family Relation: She's the girlfriend of Rei. But in secret she's in love with Chris. Though she hasn't have the guts to tell him.
Favorite Giantess Crush: The panty crotch crush
Backstory: When Chris moved into Laguna Beach. He met a girl named Kakoa. Chris was 14 years old and Kakoa was 11. He and her became good friends. By the time they were good friends she was forced to move into Japan. She told Chris that she'll return soon in about 2 years. Which she does but she came back as a mile tall giantess. Chris was amazed of how his friend gotten so big. She told Chris that due to a purple gas that was spread through the school. Which is how Miyu got so big. Instead she only inhale about 10 seconds of it as Miyu got 1 minute of it. So that's how she got so big. They hung out and have fun. Till Kakoa met Rei they became instantly in love and then dated. After 2 years of dating she is now conflicting between loving Rei or telling Chris she was in love with him. But for now she'll let her life be a happy one.
Here's my 122nd. She was inspired by a friend I have when I moved into Laguna Beach. My friend unfortunate hasn't come back. So here she is in OC form. I hope you like her cause she's the first girl that's not over D cup, not busty at all, and he hair is very short. So yeah difference
Chris you dammit heartbreaker... ^^°
Not my fault. She's to young. Plus she's more of a bestie

Keno Basics: Making a Top/Bottom Ticket
There are many kinds of keno tickets that you may choose to play. The most obvious and simplest ones are the straight tickets and 20 spot tickets. That is simply because all you have to do is mark your desired numbers to bet on. These tickets are the ones that really resemble a lottery. However, there are other tickets you can play to add variety and opportunity while you play.
One of the other variants of these tickets is called the top/bottom ticket. We'll go over how to make a top/bottom ticket and the conditions that go with it for you to win. During your next keno session, you may try making this ticket to add a certain twist in the game and see how lucky can you get with it.
Let's go over the steps to make a top/bottom ticket. You'll notice that your keno ticket will have its numbers in two grids or boxes. These grids or boxes actually divide your keno ticket into two parts. You'll find the first 40 numbers on your keno ticket on the upper half and the next 40 numbers on the lower half of the ticket.
Of course, this arrangement of the numbers on your ticket has a purpose to it. You can bet on either half of the group of numbers for a particular draw. Since the numbers are arranged on either the top or bottom of the keno ticket, marking either half of the ticket will make your top/bottom ticket. You're actually betting that the numbers drawn will be on either the top half or bottom half of the ticket.
The first step in making a top/bottom ticket is to write down how much of a wager you're making. Write it down on the space provided for it, usually on the upper right corner. Notice that you will find a space in between the two boxes that envelop the groups of numbers. Draw a straight line along that space thus dividing your keno ticket. Write a huge 'T' on the first group of 40 numbers, the top half, if you are betting on them. If you are placing your bet on the bottom 40 then write a huge 'B' on the numbers at the bottom half.
You then take your ticket to the keno booth and pay out your bet. If you hit at least 11 numbers in that particular draw your top/bottom ticket wins and it pays you two to one. Each number exceeding the first 11 hits adds to your winnings for this keno ticket. That's how simple a top/bottom ticket is made. You can make this ticket every now and then when you play keno just to spice up you game and tempt lady luck.

The Asus Fonepad is coming to the UK in April
Carphone Warehouse reveals
TAIWANESE HARDWARE MAKER Asus will release its massive 7in Fonepad smartphone in the UK next month, Carphone Warehouse has revealed.
The UK retailer has given us our first glimpse of a release date for the Fonepad, having added a placeholder for the device on its Coming Soon webpage alongside an April release date. Carphone Warehouse has also revealed that it also be stocking the Asus Memo Pad next month as well as the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0.
There's no word on pricing for the Asus Fonepad yet, although a quick search on Google Shopping found that it will probably fetch around £250.
The Asus Fonepad was announced at this year's Mobile World Congress alongside the Asus Padfone Infinity. Like Samsung's Galaxy Note 8.0, the device takes the term 'phablet' to a whole new level, as despite measuring 7in, the Fonepad is capable of making phone calls - potentially eliminating the need for separate smartphone and tablet devices.
The Fonepad is fairly similar to the Google Nexus 7. Its 7in screen boasts 1280x800 resolution and it comes powered by a 1.2GHz Intel Atom processor. The device also runs Google's Android 4.1 Jelly Bean mobile operating system skinned with Asus' light custom skin.
The Fonepad also features 3MP and 1.2MP cameras, either 8GB or 16GB of internal storage with the ability to expand via microSD card, HSDPA and WiFi connectivity and a 4,270mAh battery.
Check back soon for our full Asus Fonepad review. µ

|Vortices and two-dimensional fluid motion
|Department of Mathematics Colloquium
|Eugene Wayne, Department of Mathematics, Boston University
|The study of fluid motions is of obvious importance for a host of applications ranging in scale from the microscopic to the atmospheric. Since we live in a three-dimensional world it may be less obvious why the understanding of two-dimensional fluid flows is of interest. However, in many applications, like the atmosphere or the ocean, the fluid domain is much smaller in one direction than in the other two -- and also smaller than the typical size of features of interest in the fluid. In such circumstances, a two-dimensional approximation to the fluid motion can provide very accurate insights into the behavior of the physical system.

The survival of patients with HIV infection who have access to highly active antiretroviral therapy has dramatically increased. In HIV-infected persons, cardiovascular disease can be associated with HIV infection, opportunistic infections or neoplasias, use of antiretroviral drugs or treatment of opportunistic complications, mode of HIV acquisition (such as intravenous drug use), or with the classic non-HIV-related cardiovascular risk factors (such as smoking or age). Diseases of the heart associated with HIV infection or its opportunistic complications include pericarditis and myocarditis. Pericarditis may lead to pericardial effusion rarely causing tamponade. Cardiomyopathy is often clinically silent with asymptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Endocarditis is mainly the consequence of intravenous drug abuse, possibly leading to life-threatening valvular insufficiency with the need for cardiac surgery. A further serious condition associated with HIV infection is pulmonary hypertension potentially leading to right heart failure. The cardiovascular complications of HIV infection such as cardiomyopathy and pericarditis have been reduced by highly active antiretroviral therapy, but premature coronary atherosclerosis is now a growing problem because antiretroviral drugs can lead to serious metabolic disturbances resembling those in the metabolic syndrome. Lipodystrophy, a clinical syndrome of peripheral fat wasting, central adiposity, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, is most prevalent among patients treated with protease inhibitors. These patients should thus be screened for hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hypertension, and they may be candidates for lipid-lowering therapies. When initiating lipid-lowering therapy, interactions between statins and HIV protease inhibitors affecting cytochrome P450 function must be considered. Restenosis rate after percutaneous coronary intervention may be unexpectedly high.

"Sorako" is a slice of life manga by Takayuki Fujimura. Sorako is an ordinary girl trying to live her life as best as she can. She and her friends deal with interesting situations like a missing pet, seeing a concert that inspires one of them to play a guitar and the tediousness of finding a good paying job. There's also an interesting take on an old riddle.
The main problem with Sorako is that the author doesn't really get the hang of writing an interesting slice of life story. It probably would have worked better if she had used the slice of life framework as a vehicle for exploring philosophical questions or deep moral issues. The artwork is pretty good, giving the manga a nice quirky feel. Hopefully, the writer will improve in the future. Honolulu manga fans should just borrow this one from the library or get it from a used bookstore.

Piggy banks are great and all, but we're more prone to the junk drawer as a change receptacle, because who has the patience to stuff all those coins in that little slot? Not us. (Perhaps this is why piggy banks are good for kids - keep those little hands occupied!) The Coink Piggy Bank ($36) is a good solution for those of us who want the piggy without the pesky, since we can toss change in a handful at a time.
I love my Coink! I get a lot of compliments on it. I've also just carried him to the Coinstar machines and have had people stop in Safeway asking where I got it!

"Toy Soldiers" is the April 24 episode of "Reign." Be sure to check out the slideshow for more quotes from tonight's episode. "Reign" airs Thursday nights at 8 p.m. central on the CW.
Mary is apparently no longer in the tower since she is having a snowball fight with her ladies. It's been at least a month since the tower incident, and sadly we don't really get to see Mary and Francis deal with that. However, Scotland is still in peril. Marie's castle is surrounded, and Mary has to go to her last resort for help: contacting her uncle. What could be so bad about her uncle? Well, he likes power a bit too much, and he is not opposed to screwing people over to get it.
Greer's father is coming to visit. Things are not well in the family. Sometime recently, her family went broke, and so her father is here to negotiate the dowry with Lord Castleroy. Is anyone else waiting for him to suddenly turn evil or have this horrible dark secret? He is just too nice. Castleroy tells Greer's father that he doesn't want a dowry, only her father's blessing. Then, he gives $10,000 to each of Greer's sisters for their dowry, and makes it so that Greer approves their weddings to make sure that her sisters marry for love.
Peasant Penelope is back. Yay – said no one ever. This time she is here to declare that she is pregnant. Catherine is so far done with Penelope, it's rather amusing. Henry offers to send Penelope to an estate where she and her child can bond with all his former mistresses and his other bastards. Catherine opts for sticking her in the tower. It seems to be a thing with this family, locking people up in the tower. Surprisingly, Catherine offers Penelope a chance to be part of her flying squad of ladies – the ones who sleep with men for information. It's a win-win.
Even before Henry was mad, he was mad about England. He wants it, and so the news that Elizabeth has been declared England's next queen does not make him happy. Henry informs Francis that he has sent troops to invade. Thankfully, Catherine is on top of everything, and has already taken the generals into her confidence. She thinks of everything, really. It is times like these where her conniving ways are useful. Except for the fact that she underestimates Henry.
Mary's uncle comes to court, and he is a no nonsense kind of guy. I kind of like that about him. He is aware what everyone thinks of him, and so he cuts to the chase. In order for him to agree to help Marie and Scotland, he wants to become Francis' left lieutenant when he becomes king. Mary's uncle is a very ambitious man. Even despite the tales of horror Francis knows to be true about Mary's uncle, he agrees to the terms. Francis even wants to go on a trip to Scotland with him. There will be bonding.
Bash and Kenna are in bed the entire episode. This is not an exaggeration. Bash comes back from hunting the darkness, and Kenna decides they should have sex. However, Bash wants to take it slow. It's amusing watching Kenna try to rush things along. Bash holds steady in his position that Kenna needs to experience a lot to make her forget about all other men. Well, Bash felt this way until he saw Mary and Francis making out, and then Bash decided it was time to actually have sex. Do you ship Bash and Kenna?
Henry knows all about Catherine's plans to control him, and so he fires all the generals and tells the men to go siege. Henry wants to conquer the world. Now, Francis must save France, even though it means going back on what he told Mary. He decides that her uncle's army would be best served fighting alongside of France. Talk about rude. Yeah, yeah, France would lose and be invaded and yada yada yada, but Scotland is not in good shape.
Poor Mary, time and time again Francis says that he is going to help Scotland. Then, he changes his mind. Francis puts France first once again, causing Mary to state that their marriage was a mistake. Don't get her wrong, she does love him. However, she realizes that Francis will never be able not to protect and serve France. Their marriage is not in a good place. Any thoughts on how Francis could make things right?

Known for her naïve, but iconic role as Rose Nyland on the "The Golden Girls," 92-year-old TV legend Betty White recently defended the gay community in an interview with Larry King on "Larry King Now." As Gay Star News reports on April 24, the "Hot In Cleveland" star doesn't understand homophobes or why they care so much about what people do behind closed doors.
White is the latest celebrity to speak out on the issue. Responding to a question from a viewer who asked what White thought about the influence of the gay community on her career and the advancement of gay rights, the actress answered that she doesn't understand the motivation of those opposed to marriage equality and told King, "I don't care whom you sleep with. It's what kind of a human being are you?' I don't understand (why people are anti-gay). It's such a personal private business and it's none of mine."
Known as a gay icon, "The Golden Girls" star first voiced her support for issues like same-sex marriage back in 2010. In an interview with Parade, the actress expressed her thoughts on the issue and why everyone should have the right to say "I Do."
"If a couple has been together all that time – and there are gay relationships that are more solid than some heterosexual ones – I think it's fine if they want to get married. I don't know how people can get so anti-something. Mind your own business, take care of your affairs, and don't worry about other people so much."
The six-time Emmy winner also said that her character on "The Golden Girls" is a role she would like to be remembered by. The show, which also starred the late Bea Arthur, Rue McClanahan and Estelle Getty, had a huge gay following during its seven years on the air and continues to have a huge following years later on syndication. As the only living actress from the iconic cast, White has never let her stardom get to her head.
She mentions in the interview how lucky she is to have worked so long in the industry and have three iconic roles in her career. Not only is she know for her role in "The Golden Girls", she is also know for her role in "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" as the man hungry Sue Ann Nivens and for her ole in the 1951 television series "Life With Elizabeth."
