Twelve years after she rocked the music world with her smash hit single "A Thousand Miles," singer-songwriter Vanessa Carlton is on the cusp of releasing her fifth album, a 10-song collection entitled "Liberman." The talented musician and newlywed has also partnered with the Surfrider Foundation and Barefoot Wine and Bubbly to spread the word about the eighth annual Barefoot Wine Beach Rescue, which kicked off in Myrtle Beach, S.C. on May 10 and will conclude Aug. 23 in San Diego.
The Beach Rescue Project is a 15-city campaign aimed at keeping beaches across America barefoot-friendly. In celebration of the project, Carlton, 33, will perform for fans aged 21 and over who take part in the June 14 clean-up of Beach 67 in Rockaway Beach, N.Y. Interested parties can get more information on scheduled clean-up dates and locations by visiting BeachRescue2014.com.
During an exclusive June 5 interview with Examiner, Carlton covered a variety of topics. The discussion meandered from her involvement with the Beach Rescue Project to how the legendary Stevie Nicks wound up officiating her marriage to Deer Tick's John McCauley and beyond.
How did you first get involved with the Barefoot Wine Beach Rescue Project?
To be honest, I didn't know that they had this beach cleanup, which is so cool. They asked me to be a part of it, and that's when I found out more about it.... We got the email [to help out] four months ago.
What is it about organizations like Surfrider that appeal to you?
The whole idea... of being a beach champion is just so wonderful. Who doesn't love the beach? I think organizations like that are some of the most important environmental organizations out there. They do really honorable work.
You said back in April that your new album, "Liberman," was in the process of being mastered. How close are we to a release date now?
Well, we don't have a release date yet, but the album is totally complete. We're working on the visual art to go along with the record.... I'm really excited to get it out there, but I don't have any more info yet for you, sorry.
Do you have a favorite track from your new album?
I think my favorite is a song called "Take it Easy."
I know this is kind of hard, but if someone made you pick three or four words to describe the overall tone or feeling of the new work, what would they be?
I would say it's lush. The songs are lush and they feel... very calm and meditative, but at the same time, I think the melodies are really strong so it goes down really easy. The sonics of the record are really amazing. I worked with Steve Osborne who's the sound engineer, and he comes up with these incredible sounds that are like you feel like you're in a dream or something... so I'd call it dreamy, and seance-y, meditative. It's great music for just walking and getting lost in music in your head, you know? Lyrically, it's not very personal, it's just more philosophical.
I know you're getting ready to so a mini tour in the northeast. What does the hour or so before you go on stage look like for you?
I usually go over things on the backstage keyboard the show is carried mainly by the piano... if I mess up on the piano, I'm like, screwed.... And then about an hour before I do hair and make-up.... For any woman, as you know, it can be a really nice ritual to just focus on doing that and kind of just tune everything out.
How do you think you've changed personally since you burst onto the music scene?
I think the most important thing is to really stay, like, level-headed and connected to what inspires you. To be ready to explore anything that you want to, and not bogged down by any kind of previous success or worried about how people view you. Being like a kid in terms of curiosity makes my career feel so fulfilling no matter what.
On your next-next release, if you could collaborate with any artist to make something really unique, who would you want to work with?
I'd love to apprentice with Howard Shore the composer. I particularly love his horn arrangements.
What are a couple of things that you would like to get done within the next year or so?
My husband and I just moved out of New York --I still have my place there, I'm just renting it out-- and we bought a bungalow in Nashville. We're here now, actually, just like, you know, putting up fences, well, watching people put up fences, getting the house ready, painting, it's just been awesome. I just got married in December. We want to start a family, create a home that we both really crave, you know what I mean?
So your wedding: I know that Stevie Nicks was your officiant. How did that end up happening, because that is so cool.
Yeah, it was so cool that she did it.... John and I were talking about what we wanted to do. We didn't want to have a wedding but we wanted to have a friend marry us in a beautiful place, and we were going to visit Stevie and her family anyway, which I've been doing for the past several years, and I thought gosh, she would be the perfect woman to marry someone. She just knows about love... So I asked her and she said yeah and it was really cool.
It looked beautiful. Congratulations!
Thank you.
I like to kind of wrap up my interviews by asking a couple of short-response questions. The best song of 2014 to date by anyone at all?
Oh... I need time to think about that. Can you give me the next one?
Sure. Where's your favorite place for down-time?
Now it's become Nashville. It's either Nashville or Walker Lake in Shohola.
Favorite flower?
To be honest, my favorite is not really a flower. I really love succulents.
Best movie ever made?
Gosh. Honestly, "The Money Pit." No one knows it, I think, but it's really good.
Have a song pick yet?
Yeah. There's a song called "Big House" that I really loved when it came out. It's the last song on the Deer Tick record ["Negativity"].

"Divergent" devoured the competition, as expected, at the box office. Shailene Woodley and Theo James take over in fine fashion as plenty of factions showed up to see them.
"Divergent" took in a hefty $56 million. It built on the big Friday with a super Saturday and left the others in its wake, primarily the other newcomer, "Muppets Most Wanted." Seems like the Muppets were not wanted as it came in lower than projected. Hey, it's not animated. With "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" still strong, it took a bite out of the same Muppet crowd.
"Divergent" was not going to equal the openers of other franchise films such as "Twilight" and "Hunger Games." It really did not have to to launch its trilogy. But, because it did not, there will be those detractors.
1. "Divergent" - $56 million
2. "Muppets Most Wanted" - $16.4 million
3. "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" - $11.7 million
4. "300: Rise of an Empire" - $8.66 million
5. "God's Not Dead" - $8.5 million
If one wants to hate on movies like "Divergent" and even "Twilight" and "Hunger Games," try saving some for the over-abundance of superhero flicks. If movies for the young adults tend to ruffle some feathers, so should that. One cannot get though the day without talk of another one in production or hitting the big screen. When will that reach its saturation point?
The next installment, "Insurgent" has been green-lighted and should arrive in March 2015.
Plus, never-mind "Muppets Most Wanted" in the second spot, the other story of the weekend box office is "God's Not Dead." One more film that surprised or will do so to many in Hollywood. It is about a college student (Shane Harper) who sets out to prove God's existence. It grossed $2.8 million in just 780 theaters on Friday. Kevin Sorbo, David A.R. White and Willie Robertson of TV's "Duck Dynasty" co-star in the film. The surprise is that because of its theme, it did well. Oh well, another Hollywood miscue.
Hollywood would rather tout "Nymphomaniac: Volume 1" than "God's Not Dead." The first movie, in only 24 theaters, was able to grab more headlines than "God's Not Dead," which landed in 780. Maybe that will change now.
"God's Not Dead" is not "Noah," which opens March 28, which plays loosely with the Biblical figure. It plays him as more of an environmentalist and less of a God-fearing man. It also uses Creator and not the actual word God. "Noah" will surely drown out "God's Not Dead" next weekend, but because of the tone of the two, tracking the pros and cons will be interesting. It will most likely fall down the typical political party lines.
"The Grand Budapest Hotel" continues to impress with its per screen averages, too.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (AP) -- Adrian Meeks and D.J. McDuffie scored 12 points each to lead East Tennessee to a 66-47 victory over Furman on Saturday afternoon.

The Buccaneers never trailed, jumping out to a 16-3 start. The opening run was capped with a free throw by Meeks at 12:59.
Furman didn't get into double digits until almost 14 minutes into the half. A 3-pointer by Guilherme Da Luz made the score 22-12.
Furman got as close as 12, 42-30, on a layup by Karim Souchu at 12:28.

"What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals."
Practice mindfulness as you are setting daily, weekly, monthly and yearly goals. Set your goals, not based upon what you "want," or what you will "get," but rather upon that which you seek to embody as within.
How do you wish to know yourSelf ever more deeply as expressed in this world of form?
This practice will help to keep you centered in what matters most.
This is, in part, what the practice we see in nearly all religious texts, "Giving it to God," is all about. It serves in keeping us centered amidst the antics of the world.
"Be in this world but not of it."
If we wish to get off of the samsaric wheel of ups and downs, we must choose to step off. Be-ing since we are alive in bodies, this means remaining at the wheel's center. Teach yourself to move from the place as within that is in alignment with that which is the most important to you on the deepest of levels. Choose to move forward from this place and this place alone. You will know you are in alignment with this center by the bliss that becomes your minute to minute guide through the world.
You do not have to get caught up in others stories, ideas, needs, societal, cultural or familial expectations, you can choose to remain centered in the peace and knowing of your own soul; Divine Will as your sole guide.
How do you know if you are on this wheel?
You will feel harried, rushed, uncentered, stressed, dissonant, this is how you know.
Why do you choose that path? Who or what "idea" are you trying to keep up with?
Keep up with yourSelf and yourSelf alone and you will find the path is always clear. For it is in this way, that God can move through you and share the light in ways that are unique to you and you alone. We need your light! Shine baby shine!

|Sport: Soccer
|Year Graduated: 1989
|Year Inducted: 1998
In a team sport, it is very difficult to single out one individual as a person responsible for a team's emergence as a national contender.
Mike Emenalo is as near an exception as you can make.
A native of Nigeria, Mike matriculated at Boston University in the Fall of 1985. The previous year, the Terriers struggled through a 4-14-2 record. Under first-year coach Neil Roberts, Michael scored a team-leading 14 goals and 34 points as he helped lead the Terriers to a 14-4-1 record. A First Team All-New England selection, he scored the deciding goal in the Terriers' 2-1 win over Connecticut in the NCAA Tournament.
During his four-year career, he scored 36 goals and 32 assists for 104 points. He was First Team All-New England all four years, and the conference's tournament MVP as a sophomore. His senior year, he was team MVP, First Team All-Conference, Third Team All-America, and the E. Ray Speare Award recipient as the University's top senior student-athlete.
During this same span, the Terriers had an overall record of 54-17-11. They advanced to the NCAA Tournament in three of his four years, making it to the second round twice. In addition, the team won the conference regular-season title in his senior year.
Michael continued to excel in soccer after graduation. He
played in the First Division in Belgium and England, and the
Second Division in Spain. He also played professional soccer
in the U.S. for the Major League Soccer Team in San Jose,
CA. Finally, he played for the 1994 Nigerian national team,
making him the first foreign player to play for a U.S. college
and go on to play in the World Cup.

Panera Bread Co. (PNRA) unveiled its current business plan at an Investor's Day conference in Charlotte, N.C., this week. It shared a lot of thoughts about the current growth of PNRA stock and plans for the future.
Except for one thing… Panera was mum on forward guidance, refusing to give forecasts beyond the current fiscal year.
It was an uncommon move, and PNRA stock took it on the chin as a result, selling off about 8% today as a result.
So what gives? Why did Panera opt to stay quiet on its future … and most importantly, should investors really be abandoning PNRA stock or stick with the company despite this news?
PNRA Stock — Slowing Earnings
The reason for the lack of information from Panera is obvious, but I'll let the company tell you in its own words. In a release, PNRA chairman and CEO Ron Shaich said:
"As already reflected in our guidance for fiscal 2014, we anticipate that these investments may depress both margins and earnings growth in fiscal 2014 and 2015. However, we believe these initiatives will enable us to better meet our customers' ever-evolving needs and provide the platform for significant growth and expanded earnings."
In other words, the company is struggling to find growth and is going to have to spend money and squeeze profits as a result.
And frankly, it would rather not dwell on that.
Of course, investors have been hip to this trend for some time. PNRA posted a rather anemic performance in its Q4 earnings with just a 1.7% increase in same-store sales. Net income also dropped from $54 million in the previous year to $52 million on the quarter — though some $330 million in stock buybacks over FY2013 helped juice earnings per share to Spackle over the shortfall.
The fact that PNRA stock, in the words of its CEO, faces depressed margins and earnings growth in Y2014 is not encouraging considering how weak it performed in the last quarter of 2013.
Panera Performance Stinks
While the recent sell-off has been painful the reality is that Panera has underperformed for a while. In calendar 2013, while the S&P 500 was on a 30% run, PNRA stock put up just 12% returns.
And from January 2012 through the beginning of March 2014 — before today's sell-off, mind you — PNRA stock was up less than 30% vs. about 45% for the S&P 500.
Now, Panera did grow revenue about 12% from FY2012 to FY2013, which is something to be proud of. McDonald's (MCD), by contrast, has struggled to attain anything more than low single-digit growth in sales lately.
But top-line growth seems to clearly becoming only from store expansion given the very weak same-store sales, and that means PNRA stock is riding on how fast it can throw up new locations. Of course, the more Panera restaurants that open now, the bigger the weight of sluggish same-store sales a year from now as a result — demanding an even faster pace of expansion to keep up the same rate of growth.
This is hardly a new narrative for restaurant stocks that prey on investor sentiment and rapid expansion to build momentum. Look at Chipotle (CMG), which has soared more than 800% in the last five years thanks to ambitious growth that has taken its footprint from 837 restaurants on Dec. 31, 2008 to at least 1,500 currently.
Eventually, companies like this hit a bottleneck. Thus far, Chipotle has managed to avoid the slowdown in sentiment, rebounding quite nicely from weakness in 2012 thanks to powerful earnings reports — including a 9.3% jump in same-store sales traffic in its most recent numbers, sparking a double-digit run for CMG stock in one trading session on the news.
Panera may be able to reverse course if it can spark interest again with a blowout report like Chipotle did.
But given the company's reluctance to give guidance and the rather downbeat predictions for earnings and margins, don't hold your breath.

10. June, 1990: Kevin Poulsen Vs. KISS-FM
Kevin Poulsen was a teenage telephone hackera phreakwhen he hacked the phone lines to be the 102nd winning caller on Los Angeles-area radio station KIIS-FM's "Win a Porsche By Friday" contest. In the ensuing months, he also allegedly wiretapped a Hollywood actress and hacked into Army and FBI computers. After months on the run, the FBI charged Poulsen with a series of fraud and laundering offenses. He was sentenced to 51 months in prison, ordered to pay $56,000 to the burned radio stations, and banned from touching a computer for three years. Today, Poulsen is a journalist with Wired.com and runs its Threat Level blogwhere, on June 6th of this year, he was first to report that Pfc. Bradley Manning was the source for Wikileaks.
9. February 2002: Adrian Lamo Vs. The New York Times
Adrian Lamo is making headlines these days for being the hacker Pfc. Bradley Manning confessed to after leaking 400,000 stolen diplomatic cables to Wikileaks. But before this summer, Lamo"The Homeless Hacker"was better known for hacking into the servers of companies like the New York Times from Kinko's shops and Starbucks cafes. In February 2002, having snuck inside the Grey Lady's database, Lamo added his name to a list of Op-Ed contributors, spent endless hours searching himself on Lexis-Nexis3,000 searches in 3 monthsa "serious offense," per the Times. The FBI claimed the Lexis-Nexis searches cost the Times $300,000 and Lamo faced 15 years in jail for the breach. In the end, Lamo was sentenced to two years probation, 6 months home detention and ordered to pay $65,000.
8. January 2008: Anonymous Vs. Scientology
In Anonymouss big coming out party, the now infamous group of loosely-connected hacktivist computer users targeted the Church of Scientology in an operation dubbed Project Chanology. The groups mass-DDoS attack, coordinated using the same software program used to fight for Wikileaks this week, targeted Scientology.org, momentarily knocking it offline. Their goal: to save people from Scientology by reversing the brainwashing." At the time, a security expert monitoring the traffic generated by the DDoS attacks said it was in the middle of attack sizes, noting It's not just one or two guys hanging out in the university dorms doing this."
7. February, 2000: Mafiaboy Vs. Yahoo, CNN, eBay, Dell, & Amazon
The first major distributed-denial of service attack (DDoS) responsible for crippling some of the internet's most popular websites was executed by the hands of a Canadian citizen not old enough to drive. "Mafiaboy," a.k.a. 15-year-old Michael Calce, set out to make a name for himself in February 2000 when he launched "Project Rivolta," which took down the website of the #1 search engine at the timeand second-most popular websiteYahoo. Thinking it may have been a fluke, he went on to batter the servers of CNN, eBay, Dell, and Amazon in a wave of highly-publicized attacks that were the first to show the world how easily one kid can knockout major websites. Calce was ultimately picked up by Canadian policewhile watching Goodfellas, allegedlyand plead guilty for hacking. He faced 3 years, but was sentenced to eight months in a juvenile detention center and forced to donate $250 to charity.
6. November 2008: Unknown Vs. Microsoft Windows (& the World)
If there's one word that causes shudders in internet security circles, it's Conficker. Starting in late-2008, the Conficker worm exploited vulnerabilities in a number of Microsoft operating systems. Once it takes over an infected machine, it links unwilling computers together into a massive botnet that can be controlled by its authors, whomever, and wherever, they are. Since its first detection, Conficker has infected millions of computers and business networks in countries around the world, as authorities struggle to identify its authorssome say they may be militaryand stamp out the threat. (Protect yourself with this Conficker Removal Tool.)
5. August, 1999: Jonathan James Vs. U.S. Department of Defense
Jonathan James is one of historys all-time most infamous computer hackers who, in 1999, broke into military computers at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency and intercepted thousands of confidential messages, log-in information, and $1.7 million software that controlled the living environment on the International Space Station. Once detected, his breach led NASA to shutdown their network for three weeks that fall, costing thousands of dollars in security upgrades. In 2007, James committed suicide. In his suicide note, he denied having anything to do with a recent spate of computer takes that he was being investigated for, and wrote he lost control over this situation, and this is my only way to regain control.
4. August, 2009: Russia Vs. Georgian blogger Cyxymu
Social networking sites with hundreds of millions of users crawled to a halt for hours during the summer of 2009 as DDoS attackers operating from within Russiait was allegedsought to silence Georgian blogger Cyxymu. Maybe it was carried out by ordinary hackers but I'm certain the order came from the Russian government," he told The Guardian at the time, as Facebooks head of security Max Kelly added It was a simultaneous attack across a number of properties targeting him to keep his voice from being heard.
3. March 1999: David L. Smith Vs. Microsoft Word & Excel
In 1999, New Jersey-resident David L. Smith gave a stripper in Florida the ultimate gift: a computer virus that bared her name. Using a stolen America Online account, Smith posted a Word document infected with "Melissa" to Alt.Sex, a discussion group on America Online, purporting it to be a list of usable log-in information to pornography sites. Smith's virus spread via email, forwarding itself to fifty email accounts in Microsoft Outlook on every infected computer, and which, over time, overloaded email servers and forced companies such as Microsoft, Intel, Lockheed Martin, and Lucent Technologies to shut down their email networks. In the end, Melissa performed viral lap dances on upwards of one million infected PCs and caused $80 million dollars in damage. For unleashing the virus, Smith faced 10 years in jail, $5,000 in fines, but served just 20 months behind bars.
2. July, 2009: Unknown Vs. United States & South Korea
For three days in July, 2009, the web sites of South Koreans largest daily newspaper, a large-scale online auction house, a bank, the countrys president, the White House, the Pentagon and U.S. Forces Koreato name a fewcame under DDoS attack as upwards of 166,000 computers in a botnet unleashed wave after wave after wave of a data-powered onslaught. Some believed operatives at North Koreas telecommunications ministry were to blame, using a backdoor for the infamous Mydoom worm of 2004, but this have never been proven.
1. November, 1988: Robert Tappan Morris Vs. The World
Robert Tappan Morris created a monster. In 1988, while enrolled as a graduate student at Cornell University, Morris designed a self-replicating worm and gave it a mission: go out to determine the size of the internet. It backfired, replicating itself beyond control as it infected thousands of computers (a lot at the time!), cost millions of dollars in damage, and inspired the U.S. government to create a emergency response for computersCERT. Morris was eventually charged under the Computer Fraud & Abuse Act for his accidental crimes and ordered to pay $10,000 and do 400 hours of community service. The source code was archived on a black 3.5-inch floppy disk now on display at the Boston Museum of Science.

Garronpaduk just stop being a bitch and let people do what they want its a free country and if they didn't ban them the first two times what makes you think they will now?
Wow... You failed at replying to his comment... You hit the "reply" button to reply, typing his name isn't going to send him your retarded message. This isn't Twitter.
But getting back to it; If this was a "free country," you would own it (I know this country has freedom, but you don't have THAT much freedom anymore). That defense it self is flawed anyway because, you are not letting him do what he wants to do.
Oh and your bitching as well, so... There you go.
Hey, BITCH.
Reported for the 10th time to Deviant admins <3
Pretty soon your ass is gone and banned.
Lol Clearly you have nothing better to do with your life than to fail at getting this guy banned. And you will continue to fail because there's nothing wrong with what he's doing lol you bitch.
4 months
4 months ago, you sent that message
How's that report coming along?
Last time I checked, dA was made for drawings, paintings, and some other stuff. Not photos you would see on facebook, photobucket, twitter (which is where you got these pictures from, without promission may I add) ,and fetish sites. Not to mention using art from Fred Perry (without premission) acting like you made it. Also, you reusing the same pictures over and over again is really stupid.
Like most morons (like your watchers and yourself) would say ",PH0T0GR4PHY 1z 4RT!!1!1," (Horribly misspelled because its you and/or them) Some of it is, but not this.
Let me give you some advice. There is a belt in your closet and a metal rod holding your clothes, stand on a chair, tie that belt around the beam and tighten the other end of the belt around your neck and kick the chair away. It would make the world a little bit better ( and no I am not being serious about wanting you to kill yourself, I just want you to stop whoring out). And if you don't want to, then have a nice day (It could have been, but I ruined it for you).

Detroit broke another weather record for precipitation today.
As if 2013 being the wettest year in Michigan history was not enough, Accuweather reports that last night's snowfall brought the total for January so far to 31.3 inches, while the Detroit Free Press is reporting 31.5 inches so far. Either total beats the previous record for the month of 29.6 inches set in January 1978 by almost two inches. To add more perspective, the snowfall for this month is about a foot-and-one-half above the January average of 12.5 inches.
Don't get too attached to the current snowfall total. There are six more days left in the month and the National Weather Service predicts another weather system will bring one to two inches to the area on Sunday.
Currently, January 2014 is the fourth snowiest month ever for Detroit, having beaten not only January 1978, but also March 1900, which had 30.7 inches. The snowfall total is within a fraction of an inch of passing February 2011's 31.7 inches for third place, something that could happen tomorrow. It is less likely to exceed the 34.9 inches that fell during February 1974 and even less probable that this month will replace February 1908, which had 38.4 inches for the snowiest month ever for Detroit.
Not only has it been a record snow for the month, the total accumulation has already passed the average for winter as a whole. Normally, 42.7 inches of snow falls for the entire winter. Last night's storm brought the seasonal total to 48.2 inches, with two months still to go.
It also has been a very cold month. One week into the month, National Weather Service predicted that this January was on track to be among the twenty coldest and possibly among the ten most frigid for Detroit. WXYZ has estimated, based on the temperatures recorded so far plus the forecast temperatures for the rest of the month, that this month will end up tied with January 1875 for the fourth coldest January on record, averaging 15.3 degrees. That is 2.5 degrees warmer than the coldest January ever for Detroit, January 1977 with 12.8 degrees.
Detroit has plenty of company among Midwestern cities for snow and cold. According to Accuweather, Toledo, Ohio has recorded 33.1 inches for the month so far. The Toledo Blade reported that this is not only a record for January, but makes this month the snowiest ever for the Glass City. According to UPI, Fort Wayne has also experienced its snowiest January ever with 26.4 inches, only three inches below the record for any month of 29.5 inches. National Weather Service records show that Flint was only 1.8 inches away from its record on Friday, and recorded another 2.5 inches overnight, so it has joined the rest in breaking records.
Other Midwestern cities may join Detroit and the rest in record snow. Chicago is only 1.7 inches away from beating the Windy City's snowiest January ever. Finally, the Indianapolis Star reports that the most recent storm has given Indianapolis its second snowiest January and fourth snowiest month ever and that the record for snowiest January and month ever is within reach.
UPDATE: Not only has this been the snowiest January in Detroit, but it is now the snowiest month ever in the Motor City. Please read January 2013 snowiest month in Detroit history for the details on this developing story.

On Saturday at the Dodgers Fan Fest at Dodger Stadium, Yasiel Puig addressed some off the field issues with SportNetLA host Alanna Rizzo.
Rizzo interpreted for Puig, when she asked him about the latest speeding and reckless driving charge in Florida, that was recently dropped.
"Nada", Puig joked. "I was driving fast. It was my fault. I'm not ever going to drive fast. Or slow. I now have a driver. I want to apologize to the city of Los Angeles and to these fans. I'm done with speeding."
This was the second incident that involved reckless driving, where he was cited for driving 110 mph in a 70 mph zone. The first incident happened when he was a member of the AA Chattanooga Lookouts, when he drove approximately 97 mph in a 50 mph zone.
Puig continues to mature and grow as a player on and off the field, and as the Dodgers have been patient with him, so do many of the fans and society. The culture is new to him, and the 23 year old has taken a step in the right direction by hiring his cousin to drive him around.
Puig has been visual this off season, whether it's been working out with teammate, pitcher Hyun Jin Ryu, or assisting kids around the Los Angeles area with baseball clinics.
Puig finished second in the rookie of the year voting behind Jose Fernandez of the Miami Marlins. He hit .319 with 19 home runs last season.
He was the boost of energy the Dodgers needed last season, and the team hopes he can continue to be that on and off the field.
Puig is loved by fans, and as he exited the stage, threw his hat into the crowd as fans scrambled to capture it.

Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
Basically I have Nagios receiving status updates from workstations in my LAN, I have a simple .vbs script run on the workstation which gets the file version number from certain .exe's then send that to Nagios so I can see the file version within Nagios of Software like Skype,Firefox,Thunderbird,Java,Adobe.
They are static as they are always set to green but that Is not the problem.
If i check the status update it says "OK" but if I check the status updates in a terminal window using tail -f on /var/log/messages I can see the program version number fine. So why is the web interface only showing "OK"
When using NSCE and the same scripts I have no issue, so it has to be something do with NSCA.
Any ideas? I have provided some images to make it easier.
Again thanks for reading this post, thanks for any help.

College Hockey:Denver loses another as Zucker signs with Wild
The Minnesota Wild has signed Denver sophomore forward Jason Zucker to a three-year entry-level contract.
Denver has now lost two underclassmen this week as junior forward Drew Shore signed with the Florida Panthers earlier Tuesday.
Zucker, taken by Minnesota in the second round (59th overall) of the 2010 NHL draft, is expected to join the Wild on Thursday as the team hosts the Florida Panthers.
"After two successful seasons at the University of Denver, Jason, his representation, and Wild management have agreed that it was the right time for Jason to turn pro," Wild assistant GM Brent Flahr said in a statement. "He has achieved great personal success in a short period of time at both the collegiate and national team levels.
"We are very excited to have Jason under contract and look forward to seeing his development within the Wild organization."
"I'm very excited to turn pro and sign with Minnesota," Zucker added. "I loved every second of my two years at Denver and I'm anxious to begin the next chapter of my hockey career."
Zucker scored 22 goals and added 24 assists for 46 points this season with the Pioneers and also captained the United States at the 2012 World Junior Championship.
As a freshman, Zucker registered 45 points and was named the WCHA freshman of the year.

Stump Grinding
Once a tree has been removed, grinding the stump below the surface is recommended.
This will ensure:
- your tree does not reshoot;
- the stump does not attract white ants; and
- your grass will eventually grow over, meaning you are left with a neater area and no need to keep mowing around that stump!
Our standard procedure is to grind to 6" below ground level however this can be increased where necessary.
Before proceeding with stump grinding, consideration should be given to the location of any hidden or underground electricity wires, pipes, drains, services, sprinkler systems etc that are located nearby or may be affected.
If structures are to be built where trees once grew, complete root ball removal is recommended.
Our friendly staff look forward to assisting you.

A common misconception about modular or panelized houses
is that they're not built as well as a site-built house. But
a modular house actually is structurally stronger because
the modules are engineered to withstand transportation and
being picked up by a crane, Flaherty says. And they're precision-made
in a factory, which means straight walls and level floors.
It's also difficult to pin down cost savings. The builders
do save money in terms of labor, materials and on-site waste,
but much of the savings is negated by the transportation costs.
Snyder says that home buyers might be able to save between
5 percent and 10 percent, depending on the house.
The big savings is in time and frustration. With the shorter
time frame, however, a buyer could save money on the construction
financing and be able to work more accurately with a lender
to lock in mortgage rates.
Virginia Tech's O'Brien went with modular construction for
a couple of reasons. He had designed some starter homes that
were appropriate for a modular building process and learned
enough to decide it was a great idea. He liked the idea that
it was built in a factory; it meant the materials were never
left on site to be damaged or stolen. Plus, the best rate
he could obtain for a loan at the time was 19 percent.
"I had worked out the financing ahead of time and I
knew that every week I could save was real money," O'Brien
says. "I had a neighbor who was building a house at the
same time and it took six months. Five months of savings was
huge. It helped us get into a house we could afford."
Consumers who are interested in buying a modular house should
do what they would with any builder: Do a background check
and ask for references from customers. Additionally, they
should try to arrange a visit to the manufacturer.
"If you have the opportunity to see where your home
is going to be born, go see it," Fulton says. "It
blew my mind. Once you see it in the factory, it all clicks
in your head, and there's no way you can hold on to the preconceived
notions about building systems."
Prospective buyers also will need to make sure that a modular
house can be delivered and built on their site. The modules
are shipped on flatbed trailers and are assembled with a crane.
While there are no limits on how far the modules can be shipped,
longer distances will add to the cost. Then there is the matter
of highway limitations.
"In the Northeast, different states have different regulations
in terms of how and where these trucks carrying building components
can travel," Fulton says. "Compare that with the
Midwest, where interstates are straight and wide. We have
a member who ships modules that are 20 feet tall in Nebraska.
They know where the three bridges are in the state."
Land or zoning restrictions also will need to be checked.
Fulton says that builders generally don't run into problems
once officials see the house plans. But some neighborhoods
do have restrictive covenants against factory-built housing
as a way to keep out trailers.
"They just don't get it," Fulton says. "These
houses are conventionally built, just not completely on-site.
Most people have probably been in a system-built home and
didn't realize it."
That includes everyone who's ever toured Thomas Edison's
winter estate in Fort Myers, Fla. It was built in sections
in Maine in 1885 and shipped to Florida on four schooners.
It's still there.

Through an e-mail service hosted free by Microsoft, Moraine Park Technical College students get e-mail accounts and the College saves money.
Microsoft's Windows Live@edu is similar to the Hotmail platform and is designed for colleges. Students have a Moraine Park domain name in their e-mail address. The Live@edu accounts are available for as long as students wish to keep their accounts open, and access is available via Internet connection from anywhere in the world. Students receive 10 gigabytes (GB) of e-mail storage, 25 GB of SkyDrive storage for files and photos, collaboration tools, MSN Messenger and calendaring. Also available is access to Microsoft Office Live Workspace, which allows users to store and share up to 5 GB worth of Word, Excel and PowerPoint files. In addition, Microsoft provides round-the-clock technical support.
According to Jim Blakeslee, Moraine Park's vice president of information technology, if the College were to host and support a comparable student e-mail system, the cost to the college would be $720,000 over a five-year period.
Outsourcing to Microsoft's Live@edu is a cost-effective way of providing students with a necessary communications tool. "Moraine Park is always researching the most efficient use of our resources while making sure our students have the communication tools for their education. After careful analysis, we determined the best e-mail option for our students and the College would be using this free Microsoft product," said Dr. Gayle Hytrek, Moraine Park president. She indicated the students are pleased with the service and this was a good stewardship decision.
With campuses in Beaver Dam, Fond du Lac and West Bend, Moraine Park is one of 16 colleges that make up Wisconsin's technical colleges. Moraine Park offers more than 100 associate of applied science degrees, technical diplomas, apprenticeships and certificates delivered in a variety of formats — classroom, online and blended. Training and technical assistance for businesses are also offered. For more information about Moraine Park, visit www.morainepark.edu.

JWC TO ELIZA STODART; 10 October 1828; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18281010-JWC-EA-01; CL 4:410.
[10 October 1828]
My dear Eliza
I know not whether the highly economical consideration of saving you double postage, together with excessive occupation of late weeks be reasonable apologies for not sooner paying my debt to you of money and thanks: At all events I rely on your known goodnature to make the best of them.
You did not mention the amount of the said debt,1 but I calculate it was somewhere within five pounds which I now take the opportunity of sending safely by Mrs Jeffrey. I meant to have added a long letter, having (which is not often the case with me) materials enough just at present to render a letter from Craigenputtoch tolerably interesting; but my good intention cannot be carried into effect at this time, the horses being come to take away our visitors earlier than we looked for and a great bustle the natural consequence
Excuse this brief scrawl then; till I send you a better specimen of my wits and my penmanship. And if you please acknowledge the receipt of it that I may have no fear about its being miscarried— God bless you love to your Uncle
Ever affectionately yours /
Jane Carlyle
Craigenputtoch Friday morning

Lightly toast a pinch of saffron in a dry pan, then add ½ cup hot chicken stock and steep 15 minutes. Heat the remainder of the stock in medium saucepan. After 15 minutes, add the saffron stock to the rest. Taste the stock and adjust seasonings. It should be well seasoned so add salt if needed. Remove from heat and set aside until ready to add to rice.
Heat a large sauté pan on medium high heat. Add the sliced chorizo and cook until just browned and the fat has been released. Remove the chorizo to a plate but leave the oil you've rendered. There should be enough fat for the next step, but if it looks a little dry, add in up to a tablespoon olive oil. Reduce the heat to medium and make the sofrito by sautéing the onions and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring often, until the mixture darkened to a deep red and is thick, 15-20 minutes. If it starts to stick to the pan, add a little water. (You can make everything up to this point several hours ahead and set aside.)
About 30-40 minutes before you are ready to eat, bring the broth back to a simmer and set the sauté or paella pan with the sofrito over your largest burner on medium high heat. Add the rice, stirring until it's opaque, 1-2 minutes. Pour in 3 1/2 cups of the broth (reserve the rest) and stir or shake the pan to evenly distribute the rice. Do not stir the rice from this point on. Simmer vigorously, occasionally moving the pan to distribute the heat as evenly as possibly. When the rice is at the same level as the liquid, (about 8-10 minutes), turn the heat down to medium low. Sprinkle in the peas, edamame and lemon zest. Nestle in the artichoke hearts and, if using, asparagus around the pan. Continue to simmer gently, rotating the pan as necessary until the liquid has been absorbed, about another 10-15 minutes. Taste a grain just below the top layer of rice; it should be al dente. If the rice is not done but all the liquid is absorbed, add a little more of the reserved stock or water and cook a few more minutes. I've found at covering the pan with foil helps move this along.
When the rice is tender, it's time to create the socarrat (crust on the bottom, and a key factor of paella). Increase the heat to medium-high cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom layer of rice starts to caramelize, creating the socarrat. Rotate the pan over the heat so all parts can get a crust. The rice will crackle, but if it starts to smell burned, remove from heat immediately.
Turn off the heat and let the paella rest, covered in foil, for about 5 minutes. Serve with right out of the pan with wedges of lemon. Calories: about 320(for 6) to 475 (for 4) per serving.

Katy Perry And John Mayer Back On As They Step Out For New York Date
Katy Perry and John Mayer have been spotted together in New York, prompting speculation that they've rekindled their relationship… again.
The pair - who clearly enjoy making us dizzy with their are-they-aren't-they antics - were photographed while out on a dinner date in the Big Apple last night.
It was thought that Katy and John had parted ways for a second time last week, but today's pictures seem to prove otherwise. The showbiz couple looked happy as they left the restaurant - Katy wore a floral lace dress and fedora hat, while John kept it casual in denim. Yum.
A source told RadarOnline last week: "John just can't commit, and he kept luring Katy back with promises that was going to change, but then he didn't."
Well, something's clearly changed because these two look pleased as punch to be dining out together again. Or perhaps they were just really hungry and fancied some company… hmm. Watch this space! RM

|Dancing with Dynamite Book Review: The Future of Latin America's Leftist Movements
|Written by Kari Lydersen
|Tuesday, 12 October 2010 16:20
Source: In These Times
Reviewed: Dancing with Dynamite: Social Movements and States in Latin America by Benjamin Dangl, (October, 2010: AK Press).
What happens after you win?
That is, as fearless grassroots social movements have brought leftist, pro-worker parties to power in one after another Latin American country during the past decade, how do these movements maintain true democracy and commitment to the rights of the marginalized once faced with the challenge of a neoliberal global economy?
After the wave of worker factory takeovers following its economic collapse a decade ago, such questions played out on smaller scales in Argentina. Taking cooperative control of the factories was only the first step; the workers had to actually run them competitively in a capitalist economy. Similarly, after movements of union members, indigenous activists and other previously marginalized people bring leaders like Bolivian Evo Morales and Venezuelan Hugo Chavez to power, how do they make sure their struggles aren't declawed and co-opted by the new government?
In his captivating book Dancing with Dynamite, Ben Dangl explores the complicated choreography between unfettered popular struggle and the state institutions that are necessary to a functioning civil society—yet by nature are forces of moderation, compromise and cooperation.
Using a very literal metaphor, Dangl invokes Bolivian miners to describe the "dynamite" of uncompromising popular struggle. The miners and displaced former miners who played a major role in bringing current president Evo Morales to power are part of a movement forged through intense repression and violence, followed by perhaps even more insidious economic suffocation.
Bolivian mines were privatized and closed in the 1980s in keeping with larger neoliberal restructuring of the continent, breaking the "backbone of the country's radical workers' unions" as Dangl describes it.
In Argentina, Dangl describes how neoliberalism's strangulation of the labor movement gave rise to the processes that would ultimately topple the status quo and a series of presidents within months:
In Argentina's economic crisis of 2001, formerly middle-class people suddenly found themselves unemployed and desperate, becoming instantly politicized with a sharp new understanding of the class system.
Dangl describes this dynamic among the workers who took over a quarry in early 2003. The company had told workers to take a sudden unscheduled, unpaid vacation over the holidays, and when they returned they saw their employer had left town without paying them severance or other wages. The workers armed themselves with shotguns for self-defense and proceeded to occupy the quarry. It became a grueling exercise in survival as they ended up using the guns to hunt rabbits and fished from the lagoon. By that spring a judge awarded the workers legal control of the quarry, and it's run as a cooperative business to this day.
But Dangl notes that while countless such worker-run businesses are still flourishing in Argentina, the forces of political intransigency meant the leftist shift after the economic crisis – including the election of president Nestor Kirchner and later his wife Cristina – has not born a fundamental change in the neoliberal policies or class structure of the country. He explains:
A similar thing happened in Uruguay, where Tabare Vazquez of the left Frente Amplio party was elected in 2005. As Dangl describes it, he proceeded on a
Current Uruguayan president Jorge "Pepe" Mujica, also a beloved man of the people and former leftist guerilla, summed up the typical transformation from radical to reformer himself, as Dangl quotes, telling business leaders he is a "wild cat that has turned into a vegetarian."
The examples Dangl puts forth of popular politicians and movement leaders essentially selling out and going soft time after time is a somewhat depressing drumbeat. But he sees the rise of leftist, popular governments in Latin America overall as a promising and unstoppable trend wherein the path may not be straight but will ultimately lead to greater democracy and human dignity.
In this dance, the urgency of survival trumps the law, people acting based on the rights they were born with makes the state irrelevant, and anything is possible when the community moves.

Not all little birdies feel at home in expensive and modern-looking birdhouses. We're pretty sure some of 'em prefer something more akin to this Shasta trailer birdhouse ($45). Okay, they probably don't care where they build their nests so long as they're not reachable by neighborhood cats. We're the ones who can't resist this clever take on a bird home.

I'm not quite sure what your problem is, but if you want to play against computer opponents, I suggest you do it in single player. You can load any map into singleplayer with the
map <mapname>
command. This includes any of the the MP maps that come with the game or you have downloaded. Then you can spawn any of the NPCs from the SP game with the
npc spawn <npcname>
e.g. npc spawn reborn
command. Every now and then I do it and take on a bunch of reborns at once. They are much more difficult and fun than in MP and the action is much more realistic (better collision detection, and so on). The only problem is you can't use bots that you've downloaded off the web. However, you can convert MP skins and models to replace those from the original game. You can replace the Reborn with Darth Maul, for example.
Anyway, I've just found much more fun than playing MP bots. I suggest you give it a try. I play both people online and SP enemies. Playing people is fun and the most difficult, but I find playing SP NPCs has a much more Star Wars-like feel to it (you are not fighting someone called Dogg123, they don't spam moves, they don't say "l33t" or call everyone n00bs, and so on, which can be a nice change from time to time).
Have fun!
