The MTV Awards is known for its casual, zany, and bold red carpet looks - think Lady Gaga, Madonna, Nicki Minaj... But this year, there was more glamour than ostentatiousness. Consider persona extraordinaire Nicki Minaj who tempered her appearance and opted for more traditional attire, you know a dress and pumps, and so went the rest of the music flock... and their followers.
The red carpet made for an interesting and legitimate fashion fare. Consider Kesha (formerly stylized as Ke$ha) who dropped the trashy-classy persona for just classy at Sunday night's awards show dressed in a crystal studded white gown with a plunging neckline. (The rainbow hair still very present.)
Miley Cyrus went demur with an all black leather bandeau top and pants which was quite flattering with her cropped mane. Katy Perry demonstrated business as usual in an all denim Versace gown. If that sounds bad, that is because it is but it is not the worst of this narrative. Perry's beau accompanied her in an equally busy denim outfit. It was all very Country Music Awards.
Speaking of country, the starlet who is quite country but did not come outfitted in all the stereotypes of the genre was Taylor Swift. Swift wore a romper from a very high fashion label, Mary Katrantzou with Elie Saab shoes appearing to be truly all legs, with bangs and beach hair. The youthful look was to be admired as no one else could pull this look off as she did.
Past MTV Music Award shows have boasted the most outrageous ensembles that this year's show seemed tamed. There was no "meat dress" as Lady Gaga brought to fame in 2010. In 2011, Katy Perry's bright geometrical look was one of her more calm get-ups and the teddy bear onsie in which Miley Cyrus pranced about last year is a thing of the past. Miley went demur; Lady Gaga was absent from the show entirely; and Katy Perry was business as usual. But not to overshadow the glamour that did take the red carpet.
It is not only the music crowd who heat things up at the MTV music awards. Rose McGowan bared her bottom at the 1998 awards with then-boyfriend Marilyn Manson but this year, instead, the red carpet saw more model-types and Kardashians solidifying the event.

College Hockey:Holiday Tournament Preview: Florida College Classic
Florida College Classic
Estero, Fla., Tuesday-Wednesday, Dec. 27-28, 2005
Game 1: Northeastern at No. 8 Cornell, 4:05 p.m. ET
Northeastern Huskies (1-9-4, 1-6-4 Hockey East)
Head coach: Greg Cronin
Leading scorers: So. F Jimmy Russo (5-8–13), Jr. D Steve Birnstill (0-10–10)
Leading netminder: Jr. Adam Geragosian (1-7-4, 3.37, .901)
Cornell Big Red (8-3-1, 5-2-1 ECACHL)
Head coach: Mike Schafer
Leading scorers: Sr. F Matt Moulson (7-10–17), So. F Topher Scott (3-7–10), Jr. D Ryan O'Byrne (4-3–7)
Leading netminder: Jr. David McKee (8-3-1, 2.61, .883)
Game 2: Minnesota-Duluth at No. 9 Maine, 7:35 p.m. ET
Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs (7-10-3, 5-6-3 WCHA)
Head coach: Scott Sandelin
Leading scorers: Fr. F Mason Raymond (8-14–22), So. F Matt McKnight (7-13–20), Tim Stapleton (9-8–17)
Leading netminder: Isaac Reichmuth (4-6-3, 3.01, .890)
Maine Black Bears (11-5-0, 5-4-0 Hockey East)
Head coach: Tim Whitehead
Leading scorers: So. F Billy Ryan (4-12–16), So. F Keenan Hopson (3-12–15), Sr. F Greg Moore (10-4–14)
Leading netminders: Fr. Ben Bishop (6-4-0, 2.17, .914), So. Matt Lundin (5-1-0, 0.96, .957)
Tournament outlook: Maine and Cornell are the two powerhouses in this young but well-received tournament — formerly the Everblades Classic — which is the first of the post-Christmas tourneys. The Black Bears and the Big Red should be heavily favored against their first-round opponents: Minnesota-Duluth and Northeastern, respectively. Northeastern, in particular, enters the tournament with nothing to lose and everything to gain for Greg Cronin, whose return to the Hockey East head-coaching ranks has seen just one win as of the holiday break. Matters have been a bit better for UMD, though the Bulldogs reached the season's halfway point with a sub-.500 record overall and in the WCHA despite the offensive contributions of freshman forward Mason Raymond.
The story of Maine's first half, meanwhile, has been the timely arrival of netminders Matt Lundin and Ben Bishop. That sophomore-freshman pair has ably replaced Jimmy Howard, who left early after last season to sign with the Detroit Red Wings. Howard, surprisingly, has scarcely been missed as the Black Bears have rolled to an 11-win first half, helped out by the offensive coming-of-age of sophomores Keenan Hopson and Billy Ryan on offense. Cornell, for its part, has upheld high expectations starting the season despite a statistical comedown for Hobey Baker Hat Trick goaltender David McKee, who has compiled a sub-.900 save percentage during the first half.

Night Golf Winners at Yucca Ridge
After a rain delayed start, competition was heavy for the Yucca Ridge 6th annual night golf tournament played Saturday evening. Tying at 3 over part 38 in the 2-person scramble was the Steve Austin - Jim Darnell team with the Andy Lovato - Art Rivera team. Both teams are from Liberal.
The day had a scheduled start of 6 pm with a planned daylight 9-hole round. Sixteen teams, including four from out of town, were on hand when the wind, rain and small hail hit. Savoring a barbeque cookout waiting for the storm to pass, the skies cleared by 9 pm and the course was set up to play under clear skies, light breezes and a three-quarter moon. It was a great setting for night golf.
The team of Levi Eaton - Derek Fuller shot a four over par 39 for third place followed by Conner Warren - Ryan Brown shooting a 41. Two out of town teams placed 5th and 6th. Matt Jones - Brad Gover turned in a 42 followed by Jim Ochs and Frank Wendler with a 43.
"This was a great turnout for this popular event," said superintendent Trent Kitch in commenting on the numbers playing this year. "This is one of our most popular events and it was worth waiting for the rain to pass. Those playing the first time were really surprised how easy it is to play at night with a lighted ball."
Yucca Ridge Golf Club is a links style public access course 4 ½ miles north of Liberal. For tee times or more information on events and activities at Yucca Ridge call 624-GOLF or Kitch at 482-0243.

The Prime Time Players are featured in the "Twweet Us" segment in the April 2013 issue of WWE Magazine. Below is one of the odder questions and responses.
Each of you has 10 seconds to name the other one's most annoying habit. Go!
Darren Young: Titus's most annoying habit is that he's very gassy. Any time we eat at a soul food restaurant and we have to drive to the next city, it's like a Dutch oven in our SUV. It makes me sick!
Titus O'Neil: Darren's most annoying habit is taking the longest showers ever and leaving tanner all over the bathroom. He's the only African-American guy I ever met that goes tanning. It's very annoying, because we sometimes have to get up earlier than usual to hit the gym and find somewhere just so he can tan. It's very annoying because I like to get my rest.

"Jesse Moore is a poet-troubadour with the voice of a nightingale."
"Moore's talent is undeniable on the entirety of Live at the Old Point ...no doubt
Moore will enter the Top Ten CD list of the year once again."
"Jesse Moore is a local icon, if I may be permitted to use that overused term. Whether he is performing with a band, a duet (as he did recently with guitarist Chip Wilson), or solo, you know you are going to get your money's worth of great music. On this CD he is performing solo, with the one exception of "You're Not My Baby" that he did with Wilson sitting in during one of the two dates last summer when these tracks were recorded. Until recently, Moore held down the Sunday afternoon slot at the Old Point in Algiers and while there he gathered up a loyal following. All but three of the 14 tracks on this CD are originals with, in most cases, deep, profound lyrics that describe complicated relationships and other introspective musings. "You Won't Be There" and "Better Off Alone" are two of the best examples of this. Apparently recovered from a painful condition that affected one of his hands, Moore has returned to playing his guitar in addition to singing along in a crisp, confident style with full range of both notes and emotions. There is a nice version of the Arlo Guthrie classic "City of New Orleans" here, and the closer, Hank Williams Jr.'s "Family Tradition" is a rousing sing-along that puts the musical performance business into its proper perspective. Moore is currently taking a hiatus from performing to focus on his acting and writing, but more than likely, he'll be back. Let's hope so."
"Reminiscent of Randy Newman's Good Old Boys
(Reprise, 1974) in its ability to capture the culture of a region in both
story and musical sensitivities, Side by Side is an essential listen and
southern Louisiana narrative?this cooperative effort from Wilson & Moore,
neighbors in the (New Orleans) Musicians? Village, serves as a metaphor for
the recovery status of the city, moving beyond survival and toward
New Orleans Musicians Village featuring Jesse
"Wilson is radiating pleasure through the back room."
"A truly wonderful CD. It will sooth your soul. We love "You'll Get Through It."
"Really great! Added immediately to our playlist."
"More Than Life Itself is one of the best albums I've had the pleasure to
listen to in recent times. The mixture of blues, soul and folk make me
think about Jesse as a sort of J.J. Cale but with a more soulful approach
making his music completely original and appealing."
"One of the Top 10 CDs of the Year!"
"An album filled with truly poignant songs of love and
hope. Each track rises with gentle grace, caressing
the listener like afterglow."
"Jesse Moore shows why he is one of the rising stars
of the Crescent
City music scene with a fine new CD that is a grand
collaboration with some of
New Orleans� best songwriters and musicians."
"Jesse Moore's new CD captures the subtlety of the New
Orleans sound. He is a cross between Curtis Mayfield
and Taj Majal."�
"...nuanced arrangements, subtle musicianship and
emotional honesty...resonates especially well in
post-Katrina New Orleans."
"Jesse Moore's "Its Gonna Be OK" from his new CD
"More Than Life Itself"
should be the official post-Katrina anthem."
"The HooDooMan" is a delicious roots rock and rhythm & blues gumbo spiced
with Mardi Gras second line rhythms and funk-fried bayou magic. This ain't
It's true-blue New Awlins Rhythm and Blues, ya'll! There are elements of swamp
blues ("When the Hoodoo Come Down"), New Orleans funk n' fun ("Teenie Weenie
Woman"), reggae ("Peace Of Mind"), alt rock ("Decisions"), R&B ("Wrong Kinda
Woman"), and funky roots rock (the Little Feet-esque "Mendin Ya Wayz").
it all is the New Orleans perspective, the second line sensibility. And of
"Jesse Moore's new CD displays one dizzying array of styles! He wants you at his party and, before long, you'll want to be there. You definitely want to catch his act before fame finally catches up with it."
"Jesse Moore's new CD "The HooDooMan" is a winner!
He is a fine songwriter and the production is excellent."
"Jesse Moore is a consummate performer with a heart of soul, rhythm & blues
gumbo stirring things up on every stage I've ever seen him entertain on. His grooves
are deep and they only get deeper and funkier as the night goes on."

Stilnox (zolpidem) Available From Hospitals In Thailand?
8 replies to this topic
Posted 2009-04-20 15:59:07
NOTE to forum moderators: This is not a thread requesting controlled substances OTC - so please do not delete.
Despite some of the reported side effects of Stilnox (aka Ambien, Zolpidem) I've used it successfully on and off for insomnia for a few years now. No hangover and no memory effects.
However during a recent visit to my GP - I was told there were problems with the current supplier and health ministry license here in Thailand, and that the drug is currently unavailable. Sure enough having called a couple of the better known hospitals here in Bangkok - Stilnox (Zolpidem) is currently unavailable in Thailand.
Does anyone else know anything more about this?
Posted 2009-05-16 05:15:37
Basically, I know only what you already know. Two doctors I talked to thought it would be avaiable at some future date, but were not willing to predict when. I did not ask why it was not available. I am used to things disappearing from grocery shelves for weeks, so I thought this was in the same vein.
Posted 2009-11-12 20:58:02
Was just checking on this for a friend and apparently it is available, with a doctors prescription of course, from Phayathai hospital (I am sure I spelled that wrong).
Posted 2009-11-13 06:53:57
Most hospitals carry this here - as do many Pharmacy's, most of these will sell without prescription at a low price, as it is a "non benzodiazepam" and relatively safe - 30 to 50 baht from memory. You can also see a doctor at many of the clinics and get it there, which is often cheaper than the hospitals and far less drama.
Posted 2009-11-13 09:06:18
Silnox is a controlled substannce in Thailand (as it is in most countries), and (unlike many countries) in the most restructive category, category P2:
"P2 - Psychotropic Substance Schedule 2
Sale restricted to Psychotropic Substance Schedule 2. Only hospitals can purchase directly from FDA - Ministry of Public Health."
Sales by a pharmacy are therefore illegal. In addition, as it is a brand name import, there is no way it is going to be inexpensive unless it is either counterfeit or stolen.
Posted 2010-08-08 14:08:12
It's very difficult to get this drug at a drugstore. It's a very very dangerous rug - stay away from it.
Ambien is a prescription sleep medication used to treat insomnia, or difficulty sleeping. The drug is classified as a federally controlled substance because it has the potential to become habit forming. Ambien's Medication Guide states that the drug is intended for short-term use only and should be taken under doctor supervision because it has several potentially dangerous side effects.
Ambien is only prescribed for the short-term treatment of insomnia because the body can develop a tolerance for the drug's sedative properties. After the body becomes used to the sedative, a person may require a higher quantity of the drug to produce the same results, which can lead to abuse or dependency. According to the Ambien Medication Guide, if a person abuses the medication and takes higher doses than recommended, his body can become physically addicted to the drug.
According to the Ambien Medication Guide, one of the most common side effects of the drug is activity while asleep. A person may do things while still partially asleep and have no recollection the next day. Sleep activity while on Ambien can be dangerous, because people have been found to walk out of their homes while not fully awake. The Ambien Medication Guide reports instances of people driving their cars while on the drug, thus posing a danger to others as well as themselves.
Ambien can potentially alter a user's behaviors and thoughts. The Ambien Medication Guide states that the people taking the drug may become confused or irritable if they wake up while the medication is still effective. In some instances, Ambien may also cause hallucinations. The Ambien Medication Guide warns that the drug is not recommended for people who have suffered from depression because it can possibly worsen depression symptoms and cause suicidal thoughts or behaviors.
Allergic Reactions
The Ambien Medication Guide states that the drug can possibly trigger a fatal allergic reaction. During an allergic reaction to Ambien, a person may have difficulty breathing because the throat and tongue may swell. Nausea and vomiting are not normal side effects of the drug and are considered indicative of an allergic reaction to the drug. If an Ambien allergic reaction is not treated properly, it can result in death; however, the Ambien Medication Guide states that fatal allergic reactions are rare.
Preexisting Conditions
According to the Ambien Medication Guide, the drug can be dangerous if a user has certain preexisting conditions. People who have suffered from substance abuse or addiction are advised not to take the drug due to its high risk for physical dependency. The Ambien Medication Guide warns that those with preexisting lung, liver or kidney diseases shouldn't use the drug because it can worsen the conditions. The drug can also cause sedation in unborn babies and is not safe for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

I understand what the risks are and have heard and seen the bad press it gets. I've been on Stilnox for almost 6 years. 1/2 tablet at night as required. The only side effects I get is a touch of morning sickness if I don't take one. Been on the same dose for all this time so am probably lucky in so far as I'm not addicted or crazy or running around in my sleep.
Posted 2010-08-08 22:13:59
Try not taking it for 3 days and telling us that your not addicted.
Posted 2010-08-09 17:25:24
Sure. Last 1/2 tablet was saturday week ago. That's 7 days. I tossed and turned (as usual) till 2am before taking it.

Reviews for Strawberry-Mallow Cake Roll
"Great recipe!! It was my first time making roll cake, and it turn out just awesome. No cracks !!!"
"I've made this recipe numerous times and everytime it turns out great. Most everyone loves it and it is great with the suggested chocolate syrup. I know it's not for everyone but, I also butterscotch syrup on this too."
"This had a very good taste. I had a problem with my cake cracking though and then a lot of the filling fell out. I sis use a boxed angel food mix though and it was a little thick. That may have been the problem. The strawberries made it a little watery. I will probably make this again but follow the recipe exactly."
"I would definitely make this again. I used the cake mix and my cake cracked. Anyone have any hints so it doesn't crack next time?"

Miami Dolphins: A talk with Tim Dobbins
Tim Dobbins hasn't practiced since injuring his right ankle on Monday night, and that probably means we won't see the inside linebacker make his Miami Dolphins debut until the second preseason game at the earliest.
That leaves a window of opportunity for a pair of seventh-round picks at inside linebacker: J.D. Folsom (2009) and Austin Spitler (2010).
Considering the Dolphins only kept three inside linebackers out of training camp last year — Channing Crowder, Akin Ayodele and Reggie Torbor — guys like Folsom and Spitler, barring injury, are probably only competing for a crack at the practice squad.
But with the season-ending knee injury to fourth-rounder A.J. Edds, the need for a coverage specialist in third-down passing situations becomes more acute. Can a healthy Dobbins handle the role as he begins a new chapter in his career after spending his first four years with the Chargers?
Here's what Dolphins coach Tony Sparano said this week about the post-Edds situation at ILB: "I think what we were trying to do was get down the road with [Tim] Dobbins a little bit. Now this is a mini-setback but it will get better here shortly. Getting [Austin] Spitler back helps us because Spitler and Edds were kind of doing some of the same jobs … and now really gives him the opportunity to get some reps.
"I've kind of liked what Spitler has done out here right now; he's still kind of trying to get over this whole thing [salmonella] that knocked him down for a little while. To his credit, he's moved around pretty good out here, and he's fighting through it pretty good."


text: Jan 18, 2013 18:27 Liam Catchings plays the Spanish Moon Liam Catchings plays the Spanish Moon Liam Catchings of Liam Catchings and the Jolly Racket Liam Catchings of Liam Catchings and the Jolly Racket Michael Farrar| Special to theadvocate.com Dec. 12, 2012; 2:46 p.m. Comments Liam Catchings believes in second chances. After he and his brother Ben lost $50,000 worth of stage equipment in the New Year's Day fire at the Caterie bar in 2010 and their old band Barisal Guns broke up, the duo decided to rebound from their losses with a new endeavor, Liam Catchings and the Jolly Racket. "I think it's absolutely great," Liam Catchings said. "You spent time learning things and none of that goes away, so now you have a little bit more perspective. You have a better idea of how you're going to market yourself. Everything is fresh. It's like having a second lease on life." During the Catchings brothers' five-year run in the Barisal Guns, Ben (age 31) was the lead singer while Liam (age 27) played bass, but now it's Ben who supports Liam as the new group's front man. The current lineup of Liam Catchings and The Jolly Racket is Ben Catchings (rhythm guitar, keyboards), Brian Blanco (bass), Paul Emden (lead guitar) and Liam Catchings (guitar, lead vocals, keyboards). The band does not have a permanent drummer. Keeping things like the drumming spot flexible helps the Catchings brothers, who had to rebuild their previously uninsured music gear collection and find a new rehearsal space, which they customized for sound on a budget. "We have a little storage shed over off of Burbank. It's got pretty high ceilings, and we have access to lot of foam we can put up on the walls, so we were able to make this metal room into a relatively good recording space," Liam Catchings said. Some of those revamped recordings by the Catchings brothers can be heard online (http://liamcatchingsandthejollyracket.bandcamp.com), including a retro sounding song called "Oh No!" for which Liam was partially inspired by David Bowie's earlier recordings. "I love David Bowie, especially his mid-'70s stuff," Catchings said. "When I wrote "Oh No!" I wanted to tap into something he did and make my own version of the 'have no cares, tear it up' kind of melody. That's definitely me trying to go for the whole Ziggy Stardust-era kind of thing." The brothers were inspired by artists like Bowie and The Kinks from their dad's record collection. Even though the collection fired up the Catchings brothers' ears, their time in their mother's church youth choir balanced out their musical education. "We grew up in the church on my mom's side, and on my dad's side there was a whole lot of rock and roll. The music was good. Growing up in the South, that was kind of the grass roots of it all," Catchings said. Drawing on his Southern family's religious roots and love of rock music, Catchings feels ready to restart his music career with Liam Catchings and the Jolly Racket as a good-natured act of defiance of the odds. "I consider it to be a little act of rebellion to be a musician. We're going out there for the sole purpose of making connections with people," Catchings said. "We're definitely having a good time. The thing is just to hang on, keep playing and keep doing the best that you can." Liam Catchings and the Jolly Racket open for The Preservation at Spanish Moon on Dec. 15.

Kagame: "What about implants make you uneasy?"
Sonya: "They nudge you. They change how you think, what you accept. You record instead of bear witness, store up data not remember feelings."
"Waning Minutes" is the May 16 episode of "Continuum." Warning: this article does contain spoilers for tonight's episode. Be sure to check out the slideshow for more quotes from the episode. "Continuum" airs Friday nights at 9 p.m. CT on Syfy.
This episode reverses the typical "Continuum" set up – the present scenes bookend an episode that takes place primarily in the future. It's a little weird. I kept waiting for the switch back to the present. It's great to mix things up a bit. We don't spend a lot of time in the future, and so it is a little difficult to remember things. For instance, I can't remember Kiera's husband's name for the life of me. Still, it is great to see another side of how people lived in 2077. The background on the gleaners and how they operate is interesting.
As far as the timeline goes, this episode takes place before any of our Liber8 people that we know and kinda love/tolerate have joined Liber8. Sonya is recruited in this episode. It is fantastic to spend an episode learning what she was like before becoming the Sonya we know. We get a glimpse of her views, but it would have been nice to show more of her and Kagame debating or more of her and Kiera. Would you have liked to spend more time with Sonya?
It's been awhile since we saw Kagame. I had forgotten how persuasive he is. He manages to recruit Sonya, and then, decades earlier, his words are having an effect on Kiera. I can't decide on Kiera's change. She talks about how she is finally waking up. It's a very poetic thing to say, but as of right now, we don't know what that means for her. She says she is going home, but what exactly will that accomplish other than reuniting her with her son? Perhaps this means she is giving up her duty as a protector to focus on herself for once. What are your Kiera theories?
You know what would have been great? Learning why Curtis killed Kiera. No one seems to be interested in that. We don't even talk about it. Instead, the focus is on Kiera's trip down memory lane. At some point, the writers need to have Curtis explain his actions. They don't have to be to Kiera, although you would think that she would be curious about that. What are your theories?
What did you think of the episode? Leave me your thoughts in a comment below.

Mother wants a printer for Christmas to print things from her ipad.
Nothing fancy, she only prints documents, don't need high quality photos or anything like that.

Mother wants a printer for Christmas to print things from her ipad.
Nothing fancy, she only prints documents, don't need high quality photos or anything like that.
For printing from an iPad, make sure it has an AirPrint logo - this will mean you will be able to print wirelessly from any iOS device that's connected to the same network as the printer.
I'd also recommend buying an all-in-one, so it can scan & copy too. You never know how useful these are until you have one around!
As for brands, HP tend to have pretty well-specced products. I also quite like Epson but my Epson printers (purchased over a decade ago) used to drink ink! For running costs, try the HP Officejet range - they are designed to be used in offices, so the print quality may not be photographic, but they are economical on ink and fast.
Ive just gone for this one for mum for exactly the same reason
Canon PIXMA MX455 All-In-One Colour Printer (Print, Copy, Scan, Fax, Apple AirPrint, Scan to Cloud and Wi-Fi)</a>
Leave it to Keith to find a Canon model...hehe

A range of issues through basic just "broken" through "noisy rollers" and so on. I even had one where the ink cartridges had expired even without being used! HP had put an expiry date on the ink even though it hadn't been used.
Anyway I asked around and a friend is IT director for a large bank and said they'd just finished doing a long study into which had performed best, been most reliable etc so they could decide on a make to go forward with. Ended up being Canon by a mile. There are some funny stories in there about epson and some other makes too but basically canon were most reliable (though not QUITE the cheapest ink wise).
So I've been recommending canons ever since and everyone has been really happy with them. Hoping the same will be true of this one!
we bought an HP at the start of the year and it's been the best and cheapest printer we've had :lol: we did compare for the cost of black and white prints though as i knew i would be printing out lots of things.
in fairness, there'll always be a range of experiences depending on type of use and luck! So as much as I say I can't really recommend hp these days, there'll be loads of people happy with them and hating canonQuote:

Benefits of The Dual Admission Program
- EIU will notify the community college of the student's acceptance into the program.
- The community college will send an official transcript, at no cost, to EIU at the end of each semester upon receipt of a list of dual admission students from EIU.
- EIU will complete a degree audit each semester for students in the DAP based on the major selected on the EIU application for admission.
- EIU will make available the degree audit to students through Panther Access to Web Services (PAWS).
- Students will receive academic advising from community college staff who have been assigned to coordinate with the EIU liaison for the DAP.
- Students will have access to financial aid planning and academic assistance at EIU.
How To Apply

When Bellamy Young auditioned for the role of Mellie Grant, the beautiful, revenge-obsessed first lady on ABC's hit political thriller Scandal, one of her two scenes was set at Camp David. Young didn't need anyone to tell her what the appropriate attire would be for a day at the president's country retreat. "Mellie and I both firmly have Southern roots," says the Asheville, North Carolina, native, who waltzed into the audition wearing navy-blue pedal pushers, an oxford shirt and flats—topped off with a pair of pearl earrings—and won the part.
Her character was originally scripted for only three episodes, but Young turned her fiercely intelligent, smiling steel magnolia into the scariest person in the room. Scandal creator Shonda Rhimes "decided Mellie was a delicious obstacle," the actress says. Now, four seasons and many deranged plot twists later, Young, 44, turns giddy when pedestrians stop her. "I've been working forever to have someone say, 'I love to hate your character,' " she says, referring to her 17 years of roles, some of them recurring, on TV shows like Dirty Sexy Money and Criminal Minds. "That's actor catnip."
As a kid, Amy Young (she became Bellamy when she registered for the Screen Actors Guild and discovered that her name was already taken) took singing and tap-dancing lessons, became a pageant-circuit regular and appeared in local summer theater. She later graduated from Yale and spent 10 years in the theater in productions such as the revival of Stephen Sondheim's Merrily We Roll Along.
These days Young lives in Los Angeles, the perfect place for a meditation, ashtanga yoga and hiking enthusiast. In the morning she walks her dog, then drives to the Scandal set. She says it's easier than you might think to flip the switch from calm, centered Angeleno to uptight, raging first lady. "The wig I wear is like a Vegas-showgirl hairpiece—it's leonine," says Young. "They braid my hair down and put that wig on my head, and I am transformed."

Mommar here.
When I started making gold it was mostly out of the need to repair my gear. This was long before repairs could be charged to the guild bank, automatic deposits into a guild fund, etc. After it was obvious that I could earn much more than what was necessary for basic needs I was able to look at toys and items that I thought were neat.
Fast forward to the current gameplay where if you combine the black market auction house, regular auction house and even buying heroic mount runs just about every mount in the game is available to you if you have enough gold. Selling gold mount runs is a hefty income maker for many hardcore raiding guilds. Spend 20k+ in gold and you get a mount. Oprah would be proud.
This isn't a condemnation of this practice. You earn the gold, you should spend it how you like. It is a personal choice on whether you want to 'earn' the mount with your guild or just buy it. I decided a long time ago that I would prefer to earn it or not have it. Buying it would always be a reminder to myself that I wasn't good enough to be a part of a group that could finish the entire requirements for the mount.
The farther that we get away from many of these old world raids and instances the more apt that people will be buying and selling these mounts. And it still will be a money maker with the next expansion. Selling level 100 runs into Seige of Orgrimmar. Even older raids will be able to be soloed quickly for cash and prizes. Bringing along someone who isn't as geared but wants an awesome mount for 5k will add that much into your pockets.
Mount/achievements runs and selling them have always been the area of heavy guilds. But picking up the lower level raids and selling spots can add some into your guild and personal coffers. Even enough to buy your way into a nice mount run of your very own.
Good Luck and Good Profit Hunting

Tutorial on Database Schema - Slide 10
- Overview
Business Rules
Buying from Amazon.com and Starbucks
Take Delivery
Here we are, back where we started.
We are looking at an overview Schema, which shows only the names of the Tables and the relationships.
It's very useful when you want to discuss the Schema with the users, developers or managers.
It shows that Products have Suppliers, and can be ordered by Customers and delivered to Addresses.
In this Tutorial, we have looked at the design of a typical Database Schema.
I hope that next time you look at a Schema you should be comfortable understanding it and using it.
I hope I have been able to explain some of the theory behind this Database Schema.
In particular, I hope that you will be more comfortable the next time you see one.

I have an Asus Aspire One D250 that's out of warranty and whose hard drive is giving the click of death. I'm trying to use a spare SATA HDD I have but am having some difficulty.
I have a USB CD drive that I plugged into the computer but when I tried to boot off of a Windows XP SP3 install CD the hard drive wasn't recognized.
I tried to format the hard drive in another computer and then plug the hard drive into the Asus Aspire and although this gets me to the Windows XP loading screen it crashes before it gets into Windows, itself. Even in Safe Mode.
I also tried to install Windows XP off of a USB stick but it seemed to hang during the install process. As in the next day it was still in the blue screen installer.
Any ideas?

Burned My Hair And Didn't Straighten It At All.Okay, so my hair is really really tough to straighten since it's wavy and dry, but this didn't even give me results close to straight. It stayed almost the same, and since it has no temperate settings, I couldn't the temperature up or anything. It felt really hot at the touch and the outer plates were burning my hand as I was flat ironing.. ouch! And it made a "burning" sound when I got it to my ends. Wtf?! The only thing I liked about this is that it's so cute. I'm sending it back though.May 21, 2012Amika Giraffe Go-Go Travel SetHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Dry Hair / Curly Hair

Awesome Products!I bought this for my daughter for Christmas. It's very hard for me to find products for her very thick hair, but although the straightner is very mini, it works like a charm! It does the same job as a full one would and the blow dryer is also mini but powerful! I am ready to buy one for myself! I definitely recommend this to everyone! :)))Jan 2, 2012Amika Pink Snake Go-Go Travel SetHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Normal Hair

(r to l) Danny Ruscillo, President of the 100th Precinct Community Council, Phil Cicia of Beer House Beverages, and Neil Bress, proprietor of the Rockaway Beach Pawnbrokers pose by the recently installed bus stop sign on Rockaway Beach Blvd between Beach 87 and Beach 88 street that marks the end of the bus stop that begins on the corner of Rockaway Beach Blvd and Beach 88 street. The missing sign had been a bane to motorists who have been repeatedly ticketed for parking in a bus stop that, lacking the sign, ran the entire length of the block. Ruscillo had been working with the Department of Transportation since September of 2008 to correct the problem. As a result of the new signage, motorists will now be able to tell where the bus stop ends and avoid being unnecessarily ticketed.

Standard Configurations Lead to Cost Savings
In January 2011, Information Technology Services announced the availability of improved desktop and laptop configurations as the result of a cross-campus group defining more relevant hardware configurations that resulted in lower pricing from Dell.
In the past nine months, 60% of the 1,836 DELL desktops purchased on campus have used the standard configuration, saving the University over $220,000. This is great news and shows how campus collaboration generates savings for the entire University community. During the same time period only 33% of 722 new laptops took advantage of the standard configurations and lower pricing. To address this, the same cross-campus group is analyzing the standard configuration for laptops to better meet campus needs - including factory installed encryption - to drive more savings.
Those interested in gaining access to these configurations via the Dell Premier website for UT Austin, can email the UT Austin Dell contact, Jonathan Negrey at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Average Cost for Rotating Item PUMP100 should have been updated.
Actual Results:
The Inventory Cost for Asset 11430 doesn't get updated.
The Average Cost for Rotating Item PUMP100 doesn't get updated.
1. The Inventory Cost for Asset 11430 does not get updated in assets
application, the Inventory field (ASSET.INVCOST) in costs section displays zero. 2. Go to Inventory application, bring up item PUMP100
The Average Cost (INVCOST.AVGCOST) for Rotating Item PUMP100.
Resolving the problem
1. In the Assets application, the Inventory field (ASSET.INVCOST) the costs section shows zero.
NOTE: invcost should only be updated when the work order is closed, not when the material has been received:
i.e. If the work order has been closed, the asset.invcost should now show $1,000.00.
2. The Average Cost (INVCOST.AVGCOST) for Rotating Item PUMP100 in the Inventory application.
NOTE: The Inventory application has a rotating asset tab, since this rotating asset is no longer in a storeroom:
i.e. the rotating asset has already been moved to the repair location, the cost of the asset the asset cost will not show until the rotating asset have been moved back to the storeroom.
Then the cost will show up in the inventory cost field (ASSET.INVCOST) on rotating assets tab in the Inventory application.
Also the cost will show up in the last receipt cost (INVCOST.LASTCOST) in the inventory tab in the Inventory application.
NOTE: It is not necessary to have a work order for this transaction, if you create the PR/PO line directly charged to the Asset, and manually check the "Charge to Store" flag. With this scenario, the Average Cost gets updated as soon as the asset is moved.

Natalia has confirmed via her Facebook page that herself and Jonathan are traveling to Moscow on Wednesday for the Belle Du Seigneur World Premiere. She has also said that it will be released in France in March 2013 and I have added some of the article containing that information below. Please note I can't read Russian so had to use a translator and have re worded it so hopefully everyone will understand.
Me and Jonathan are going to Moscow. Next Thursday will be the premiere of the film "Lovers" (Belle Du Seigneur)
For me it was essential that the world premiere was in Maine. I am at home. Exactly a week later it will be released in Russia on the 29th of November and then in March in France. This is my first experience in film and was the female role. I gave the project all I could. I think the movie was beautiful, complex and very stressful but in a good way. I can not wait until you can see it. – Natalia Vodianova

Unfortunately we don't. Last I heard the company was in talks with British distributors for a release but never heard anymore. Fingers crossed we won't have to wait much longer :]
Nov 09, 12 estelle says:
yes I hope so for you it will come out one day in England, but I do not see why it will not, except when he is on free download sites in France, I would send if I can even if it will be in French lol

A good man died this past weekend. A friend. Actually, he did not just die – he was killed. Murdered, in fact. The death of multiple award-winning producer-director Bennett "Ben" Bradley, 59, of The Fountain Theatre in Hollywood, was horrible, stunning news that dulled the shine of a new year.
What's known from media coverage is that Bradley's body was found in his Koreatown apartment in the 100 block of South New Hampshire around 6pm on Saturday, Jan. 2. He had been stabbed multiple times by an unknown assailant. According to an ABC news report, the condition of his home suggested a possible robbery and his death has being designated by LAPD as a homicide. The exact cause of death has yet to be determined.
Ben Bradley had been part of the intimate Fountain Theatre for over 16 years. Among his many accomplishments were two acclaimed productions of August Wilson plays: Gem of the Ocean, which garnered him 2008 LA Drama Critics Circle Awards for Best Director and Production of the Year, and Joe Turner's Come and Gone, which brought him a 2006 Ovation Award and a 2007 NAACP Award, both for his direction. He also directed Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill and Direct From Death Row: The Scottsboro Boys, which won his cast an LADCC award for Best Ensemble. His producing credits included Photograph 51, Yellowman, Master Class and Central Avenue; he was co-producer for The Darker Face of the Earth, I Am a Man and Four by Tennessee.
In addition to directing and producing, Bradley also served as the Fountain's Director of Audience Development. He had been readying Ifa Bayeza's The Ballad of Emmett Till for a February opening when he failed to show up for a scheduled rehearsal. A stage manager who went to his home to check on him made the gruesome discovery.
Bayeza's play is based on the true story of Emmett Till's 1955 abduction and murder, and the subsequent acquittal of his killers – events which were instrumental in activating the Civil Rights Movement. The show is described on the Fountain's website as "part history, part ghost story," lending a now terrible irony to this west coast premiere production. In honor of Bradley, the Fountain has decided to continue with the show, although a new director has not yet been named and the opening date may change.
So there you have what has been reported thus far about the crime. But what is known about Bradley by the patrons of the Fountain theatre who basked in his warm and friendly greetings; by Fountain co-founders and co-artistic directors Stephen Sachs and Deborah Lawlor, by producing director and dramaturge Simon Levy, and by other staff with whom he had worked for so many years; by actors and critics, fellow directors and producers, and others in the Los Angeles theatre community, was that Ben Bradley was a kind and caring man. He loved to cook and to share his kitchen creations. He had a great laugh and a generous spirit. Levy was quoted in the Sunday, Jan. 3rd L.A. Times as saying, "…There is hardly anybody in this theater community who does not know Ben in one way or another. He was just this big, loving personality."
In other words, Ben Bradley was a friend. And one whose friendship will be deeply missed.
An email sent to Fountain Theatre supporters Monday afternoon reporting Bradley's death said, in part, "We're reeling, in shock and grief and anger. Ben was a sweet soul, a passionate artist, someone who only wanted to do good; that he should die the way he did is horrifying to all of us. He was an integral part of our Fountain Family and we've no idea what it will be like without him."
The Fountain Theatre has also established the Ben Bradley Memorial Fund. For more information or to make a donation, visit www.fountaintheatre.com or call Diana at 323/663-1098.
PLEASE NOTE: The police are seeking the public's help in solving Bradley's murder. If you have any information, you are urged to call the LAPD at 1-877-LAPD-24-7.

Bow Rack Small Recipe: 15 Wood, 2 Iron Bar Bow Rack Recipe: 15 Wood, 2 Iron Bar Weapon Rack Axes Recipe: 15 Wood, 10 Iron Bar Weapon Rack Polearms Recipe: 15 Wood, 10 Iron Bar Weapon Rack Swords Recipe: 15 Wood, 10 Iron Bar Weapon Rack Recipe: 15 Wood, 10 Iron Bar Source: source is attached as .zip file to this post Obj: Functional (like chests) - has multiplayer issues; see post below http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1833841/Arkoth's Terraria Mods/Weapon Racks.obj Obj: Decorative only - no issues http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1833841/Arkoth's Terraria Mods/Weapon Racks Decorative.obj Copy the .obj into your ModPacks folder in \My Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModPacks I've seen lots of requests for this so I went ahead and made them. They function like chest, not like mannequins, so... sorry to get hopes up for those that want that feature (above me atm). I made these because I'm making a map that I wanted to use these in to have it look more 'authentic'. All the sprites are reworks of original Terraria sprites with the exception of the Polearms Rack. The Iron Polearm sprite used comes from Omnirs Melee Weapons mod http://www.terrariaonline.com/threads/released-omnirs-modpacks.61543/. I am not a coder or a spriter, I'm a sound guy. So if you don't like the sprites, please let me know what I could do to make them better, or take it in your own hands and post some sprites and I can add them to the mod. Variations are always welcome. Special thanks to Surfpup for tConfig. Thanks all, enjoy the mod. -Arkoth http://enriquevarelastudios.com

RE: Re: Freeda Stanley White
Go to this link:
You're showing Freeda as a child of Edward Stanley, and his parents as Daniel Boone Stanley, but Edward's father should be Harrison Stanley. That would make Daniel Boone Stanley the great-grandfather for Freeda. :-)
Daniel Boone Stanley - great-grandparent
Harrison Benjamin Stanley - grandparent
Edward Howard Stanley - parent

Stanley vs Wood cemeteries
I've seen the William M. Stanley cemetery (for William M. Stanley & Nancy Kyle) on Findagrave and have several folks in my db buried there. But, am wondering of this is the same one that's also called W. R. Wood Cemetery (is in the same area in Stoney Knoll) since Margaret Peggy Stanley married William Riley Wood. There is someone who has posted a cemetery as W. R. Wood in Surry County with a few burials, and just didn't know if they were separate, or were the same but had two different names.

You are my last hope... I have a listing for John Thomas Potter. He is listed at ancestry.com and in the Lenoir county cemeteries as the son of Drewy Potter and Mary Jane Deaver. He is buried near his mother. BUT he was born in 1874, 10 years after you have Drewy's death. There was also another son, Martin Luther, born in 1877. The other 3 children:
Mary Jane Potter Hill (1854 - 1912)
John T. Potter (1860 - 1861)
Daniel E. Potter (1864 - 1905)
were all born prior to the 1864 death date.
Ancestry.com has Drewy's death as prior to 1880 in Craven County, NC. , as does another web site.
Can you tell me where you got his death date of Aug. 25, 1864? Is there a chance that he did not die with his unit and fathered the last two children? Or did Mary re-marry to a brother of Drewy which was a common thing back then? I am trying to be accurate, but sometimes family history should be re-named as family MYSTERY! Many thanks. I look forward to hearing from you.
Robin in alabama - yes, I am kin to the Potter's, too.

Game two saw the Wildcats record another 3-1 victory, thanks to a fine pitching performance by Heather Gruber (6-5). Gruber pitched a complete game giving up one earned run on eight hits. Kayla Morse and Heather Gruber each led the way offensively going 2-for-3 at the plate with one RBI.
"We've got one more tune-up on Tuesday before we head into the HAAC playoffs next weekend," said head coach Matt Windle.
The Wildcats will face Kansas Wesleyan University on Tuesday afternoon in Salina, Kan. at 3:00 p.m.

Councilmember Carl DeMaio released a memo today showing the major impact the new Downtown Library project will have on the city's General Fund which faces a staggering $200 million deficit.
By shelving a new downtown library, the city could save as much as $63 million over the next five years, according to a fiscal analysis by City Councilman Carl DeMaio.
DeMaio, who is opposed to the project, issued a memo Monday to his council colleagues and Mayor Jerry Sanders that outlines how much the city would save if it abandons the project.
As the City of San Diego confronts a staggering $200 Million-plus budget deficit, Councilmembers Carl DeMaio and Donna Frye have teamed up to propose a process to analyze and negotiate significant reforms in pension benefits that have been awarded to city employees over the years and are now contributing to the city's financial problems.
Below is a great editorial by Michael Rosen detailing the deficit and the bipartisan plan to begin the reform process.
San Diegans have known for years that our city is in trouble, but the extent of that trouble came sharply into focus days ago with the release of the latest alarming budget deficit numbers.
Today the City disclosed a budget deficit of $180 million — confirming concerns that the city's financial problems are worsening.
Councilmember DeMaio believes it is imperative that we educate and engage the public on the city's financial problems — and seek their ideas on solutions. That's why he's convening an eight-week long series of "Town Halls on City Finances." (See release below)
We're ready to go on a "fiscal reality road show" around the city seeking public engagement and ideas for solutions.
In Wake of $180 Million Budget Deficit, DeMaio Launches Series of Public "Town Halls" on City Finances
Forums to Offer the Public a Candid Look at City's Finances

Back to school fashion is quickly becoming a reality for many of us whether it's for ourselves or our kids.

That's why this Forzieri Solid Light Blue Oxford Classic Blouse ($95) is the first item on our must-have shopping list. The top is an all-time classic piece (heck, the name says it all) and the fit is just about as flattering as they come. Let's just hope that there aren't any crazy lines to grab this one, we hate all the crowded stores!

On the "Once Upon a Time" season 3 finale, Emma made the mistake of bringing Marian back from the past with her. Thinking she was doing a good deed, it was finally revealed that Marian just wasn't any ordinary woman. She was in a romantic relationship with Robin Hood. Having the two reunite right in front of Regina was heartbreaking. So what will happen in season 4 between Emma and Regina? On May 14, Carter Matt posted some information on the dilemma between the characters.
Just as fans suspected, Emma would never intentionally do something to hurt Regina or anyone else. She sincerely thought she was doing a good thing. However, no matter how good her intentions were, Regina and Robin Hood are now in a complicated spot.
Morrison told TV Line that Emma wants Regina and Robin Hood to be together. But at the same time, she could not allow Marian to die. She did a good deed, but it is going to have terrible repercussions. Morrison also said that she thinks the dilemma is good for the show. She added,
"We should have conflict between Regina and Emma, because that's where the show got its feet in the first place."
Many fans are wondering why Regina was redeemed if her heart was going to be broken all over again. Co-creators Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis told TV Line that over the past few years Regina's character has grown, changed and evolved. Even though Marian appearing is a blow to her, Regina isn't going to go back to the way she was in the first season. Instead they are giving Regina a challenge and seeing how the "new" Regina deals with adversity.
There was some confusion over Marian appearing because many fans thought that she was already dead before Regina was going to execute her. To clear things up, Horowitz explained that in the second season, viewers saw a very sick Marian. Her illness was the reason why Robin Hood was trying to steal the wand from Rumple. But then she was healed and gave birth to Roland.
In season 3, Robin Hood talked about losing his wife, but he wasn't referring to losing her through sickness. He lost her in another way. Horowitz said that storyline will be explored in "Once Upon a Time" season 4. How they were separated and her death is a story that is going to be told.
What do you think of Emma and Regina's storyline? What do you think will happen with Marian and Robin Hood? How will Regina deal with this in "Once Upon a Time" season 4? Will this be one heartbreak too many for her to bother opening up ever again?
