Try the Ston oysters and mussels here, which are considered to be some of the tastiest and finest shell fish in the Adriatic. Asides from lamb and veal cooked in embers under an iron bell, this region's gastronomic chapter consists of eel and frog stew from the Neretva valley. Maybe more than anywhere else on the coast, the Dubrovnik region offers special sweet pastries where the most famous are Rožata and Kotonjata as well as the Mantalata and Arancina cakes. All this should be accompanied with top quality wines such as Dingač and Postup from Pelješac, Pošip and Grk from Korčula, as well as Dubrovnik's malvasia from Konavle.
In Split, try the famous "dalmatinska pašticada" [Dalmatian stew], a meat dish that takes two days to prepare. If you want some more simple tastes then there are the aromatic Viška, Forska and Komiška "pogaca", savoury cakes which go wonderfully with a glass of wine from Vugava and Plančić from the island of Hvar. If you need extra invigoration then drink a glass of Brač or Hvar "smutice" – red wine that is mixed either with sheep or goats milk. In the regions of Cetina and Sinj, asides from the stew made out of river crabs, there are the famous "luganige" sausages as well as "arambašić" from Sinj – small cabbage rolls filled with mutton.
Start with a morsel of cheese ripened in a lamb sack and Drniš prosciutto washed down with a glass of red wine from Primosten's Babić. For the main dish, asides from a rich fish menu that ranges from small sardines to slices of fresh tuna on the grill, you should not miss out on the so-called "Skradinski Kumbasice" [Skradin sausages] and the famous "Soparnjak". Made from a simple pastry filled with a mixture of olives, figs and olive oil, the cooked and rolled Soparnik is served and eaten cold. For pudding asides from dry figs, jujube and cakes made from almonds, you can try some cake from Skradin.
For an aperitif, try a glass of the famous Maraschino, a desert liqueur made from the autochthonous Maraska cherries. Follow this with some Pag cheese, which is the most highly prized cheese in Croatia made from the small sheep who eat the aromatic Mediterranean plants on the island of Pag. For the main dish, order "brodet" [stew] that is cooked in a thousand different ways and is made from a number of different types of fish mixed with crabs and sometimes shell fish or even fish on the grill salted with Pag and Nin salt. There is also the "Ninski šokol" made from a specially made dried part of the pork neck that is soaked in red Benkovac wine.
In Istrian inns the order of things is as follows: first an aperitif of mistletoe, rue or honey schnapps, followed by cheese and prosciutto accompanied with Istrian soup, and during the spring scrambled egg made from asparagus. In terms of the main dish, you can choose from either continental or seafood dishes. If you are tempted for a taste of the Mediterranean then you can eat fish, crabs and shellfish cooked in a thousand different ways. If you prefer continental food then start with a spoon of minestrone with broad beans, then eat some pasta with truffles, sauce of game or even ordinary goulash all the way to pork loin and sausages. For desert, try the kroštule, krafi or fritule pastries.
The key eno/gastro words of Kvarner are Vrbnička Žlahtina, Trojšćina, Kvarner scampi, lamb, "šurlice", chestnuts and Rab cake. Vrbnička Žlahtina is a famous autochthonous white wine from Vrbnik, as is Trojšćina from the island of Susak. The scampi from Kvarner are the largest and the best in the Adriatic, whilst lamb with sheep cheese is the most famous gastro product in Kvarner.'Surlice' from the island of Krk is pasta and is eaten with all types of goulash or seafood. There are also the Lovran chestnuts and filigree Rab cake.

In response to the public health burden that food allergy presents in the United States, NIAID worked with 34 professional organizations, federal agencies, and patient advocacy groups to develop the Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Food Allergy in the United States: Report of the NIAID-sponsored Expert Panel.
The guidelines are intended to provide healthcare professionals with concise recommendations on the diagnosis and management of food allergy and the treatment of acute food allergy reactions.
NIAID established a coordinating committee to oversee the development of the guidelines. The coordinating committee identified a 25-member expert panel that was responsible for developing draft guidelines based on an independent, systematic literature review, panel-identified supplementary documents, and consensus expert opinion.
Following a public comment period on the draft guidelines, the expert panel revised the draft and submitted it to the coordinating committee and NIAID for review and finalization. The final guidelines were released on Dec. 6, 2010.

At one point Sunday afternoon, the Cincinnati Reds, Pittsburgh Pirates, and Cleveland Indians trailed by a combined 22-0. Not too surprisingly, none of these three major league baseball teams were able to stage a comeback - although the scrappy Reds did make it interesting dropping a 9-7 decision to the New York Mets.
The visiting Buccos fell 5-2 to the Philadelphia Phillies, and the Tribe was routed 10-1 by the host Detroit Tigers, averting a shutout with a run in the ninth inning.
Now, it's the All-Star break, and time for the Reds, Pirates and Indians, all playing under .500 ball, to regroup. Mathematically, all three are still in the hunt for a postseason berth, but then again, so are the hapless Washington Nationals - and if they somehow do get their act together then you-know-what will definitely freeze over.
Thing is, there's a lot of baseball remaining to be played in the second half of the season, and looking at it optimistically, there's still time for the Reds, Pirates and Indians to make up ground.
Realistically, though, making plans for the playoffs in October would be premature to say the least.
If you were to ask representatives and players from the Reds, Pirates and Indians to grade themselves in the first half of the season, it's doubtful any of them would select anything higher than a "C."
With that in mind, let's briefly take a look at each ballclub, starting with the Reds.
After Sunday, Cincinnati owned a 42-45 record, and was in fifth-place in the National League West. The Reds, though, are only 4-1/2 games behind the division-leading St. Louis Cardinals.
This division is wide open, and if the Reds get hot after the All-Star break, they certainly can be a team to be reckoned with. They have the pitching and one of the best hitters in MLB in Joey Votto to make a move in the right direction.
What the Reds need to do - and they know this - is be more consistent on the diamond. Easier said than done.
The same can also be said for Pittsburgh, the owner of a 38-50 mark, good for last place in the NL Central. The Pirates trail the Cardinals by only nine games, a manageable figure.
Just before the All-Star break, Pittsburgh, a relatively young team, was swept by the Phillies - and it shouldn't have happened. On Saturday night, the Buccos led 7-4 in the bottom of the ninth inning and ended up getting beat 8-7.
The Pirates need to protect the lead better, and if they can do that, they're certainly capable of making some noise in the second half of the season.
As for Cleveland, fans have to be downright worried. The Indians are 35-54, 14 games behind the first-place Tigers in the American League Central.
Mind you, two short years ago, the Tribe was one win away from appearing in the World Series. Now, they appear to be frustrated and in disarray.
If the Indians don't improve any - in just about every phase of the game - in the second half, they could be flirting with their first 100-loss season since 1991.
The Tribe needs to regain its confidence and swagger, and if they can also put together a double-digit winning streak, there's still hope for a possible fantastic finish. It's been done before and can be done again. Just ask the 2007 Colorado Rockies team.
All the Reds, Pirates and Indians have to do is keep the faith. If they do that, their fans won't be disappointed.

Sunday, 11/16/1997
McNichols Arena, Denver, CO
Soundcheck: Saw It Again
Set 1: NICU > My Soul, BEKBlack-Eyed Katy, Farmhouse[1], The Old Home Place, Billy Breathes, CTBCars Trucks Buses, SOAMuleScent of a Mule[2], Poor Heart[2], Taste, Hello My Baby
Set 2: TimberTimber (Jerry) -> Simple -> Wilson > HoodHarry Hood[3] > Izabella
Encore: BowieDavid Bowie
[1] Played in concert for the first time.
[2] Pete Wernick on banjo.
[3] Unfinished.
· Foggy Mountain Breakdown tease in Scent of a Mule
· Frankie Says tease in Timber (Jerry)
Noteworthy Jams: Farmhouse, Timber (Jerry) (highly recommended), Harry Hood, David Bowie
Average Song Gap: 6.25
Performers: Trey Anastasio, Page McConnell, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon, Pete Wernick (Guest)
Notes: Mule and Poor Heart featured Pete Wernick on banjo. Mule also included a brief Foggy Mountain Breakdown tease. The jam out of Timber included a Frankie Says tease. Harry Hood was unfinished. Farmhouse was played in concert for the first time.
Song Distribution:
3 Billy Breathes
1 Farmhouse
1 Stash
1 Hoist
1 A Picture of Nectar
1 Junta
1 The Man Who Stepped into Yesterday
Songs by Debut Year:
This show was part of the "1997 Fall Tour (a.k.a. Phish Destroys America)."
NICU is a fun opener. My Soul is good, Trey's solo is solid. BEK is throws some funk into the mix. Farmhouse is awkwardly placed, but is well played and sung. I like Old Home Place, but this ensuing string of breather songs kind of diminishes the value. Cars Trucks and Buses is a great song, so even though it's another short/no segue song I don't really mind it. Page has an unusually long solo, and it's really good. Gets kinda abstract in the middle with a descending chromatic pattern. Scent of a Mule is next and only had a page solo. Pete Wernick adds some nice flavor to this version. Poor Heart is fun with the banjo. Taste is the first really high energy song, and is played very well. Both Trey and Page's solos are really tight. Page is really on in this set. Hello My Baby closes. One of the few skippable sets this tour. Not BAD by any means, just not great flow and not much jamming.
Set 2
Timber begins with a minute or so of space, follows with a minute or so of composition, then jumps right into a very heavy jam. It begins with a very nice Trey lead, and then turns into a wall of sound, and then peters back into space where Trey sorta clumsily makes his way into Simple. The jam has a very heavy psychedelic feel. It's not the tightest jam, but it's very ambitious and has some interesting work from everybody. Simple has a short "jam" who's only purpose is to segue into Wilson. Wilson is good and leads into a pretty decent Hood. All Hoods from '97 have great, emotive playing from everybody. This one has an especially powerful peak. The > Isabella is fun, and Trey goes machine gun at the end.
Cool to have Bowie as an encore. Not very exploratory, but has a couple type II excursions. The entire jam has a very heavy feel. Not metal necessarily...there's just a lot of things happening at once, and Trey plays around with what sounds like power chords for a bit.
First set doesn't do a whole lot, second set is decent exploratory '97 Phish. Timber is probably the only thing from this show that I'd listen to again. This is only a testament to how great the rest of the Fall was, because this is by no means a bad show.
*--all apologies for the Hannah Montana reference!!!!!

Create a no-sew scarf with an image of Boots. Use felt, our templates, and some fabric glue to get started!
Weekdays on Nick Jr.
Start with a store-bought red fleece scarf or make your own by cutting a 48- to 54-inch piece of fleece about 6 inches wide. For a thicker scarf, iron in fusible interfacing (such as Wonder Under) between two pieces of fleece or stitch them together on a sewing machine.
Print the scarf template, cut out the shapes, and set them aside.
Following the diagrams on the scarf template, trace the shapes onto felt swatches of designated colors.
Arrange and glue the felt shapes together following the image reference on the template. Glue Boots' head onto one end of the scarf and draw Boots' facial details with pink/purple, black, and white fabric paint. Glue the red boots onto the other end of the scarf. Let the glue dry for about two hours.
You can use embroidery floss or pearl cotton to add trim; simply stitch two rows of thread along the bottom of the scarf using a long running stitch.
You can create a colorful border for the scarf by cutting out two 6- by 2-inch pieces of felt, folding them in half lengthwise, and pressing them with an iron set to the low setting. Slip one end of the scarf into one of the folded rectangles and glue it in place. Do the same at the opposite end of the scarf.
Press the scarf lightly with an iron on the low setting. For best results, wait a couple of days before ironing the scarf.

The sound at the Greek is some of the best outdoor sound I have ever heard. It is surrounded on all sides by pines so the music shoots past you and is absorbed by the trees. Very clean sound, and you can hear it on the tapes. The slow songs seem to fit well here. I enjoyed Driver and Albuqurque in the quaint atmosphere. It's only 8000(?) people I believe. The Moma is so deep, thumping, and funky. Page's piano solo during McGrupps sounds really great here too.
Sidenote: i was still searching for my Halloween ticket when I showed up in LA. Well, for parking they stack cars on this sweet wooded lawn in Griffith Park next to the venue. Makes for some equally quaint tailgate for the show. Anyways, drinking beers I came across a guy with an extra. Haggled with him for a while and got the ticket for: 1 new bubbler, an extra for tonight(10/29), and 50 bucks.
He got me good, but man were those Vegas tickets a bitch to get back in the day. It was a good show. I partied hard and drove past the 11/2 Dark Side show on my way home. Broke and meek.

SARATOGA -- When Audrie Pott woke up in her friend's house the morning of Sept. 2, after an apparent night of heavy drinking, she found herself undressed and her body covered in marker-drawn scrawlings of sexually explicit messages, several of her fellow teen partygoers told investigators.
There were also murmurs that three of her male friends sexually assaulted and photographed her as she lay passed out in a bedroom, murmurs that grew into a week's worth of rumors, alleged bullying and humiliation that family members say drove the 15-year-old to hang herself in her mother's Los Altos home.
Some of the markings allegedly written on Audrie's body -- including drawings and sexually charged words -- were intended to mark the suspects' presence, investigators and the Pott family lawyer attest.
"They left her a message," attorney Robert Allard said.
Police reports obtained by the Mercury News reveal a picture of a booze-soaked high-school party at the home of Audrie's friend, whose parents were away for the weekend, and the subsequent interviews with underage members of the Saratoga party.
Three of Audrie's classmates were arrested Thursday in connection with the assault and the subsequent sharing of images, which touched off a national media firestorm given it surfaced in the wake of similar high-profile sexual assault cases in Ohio and Nova Scotia.
One of the suspects claims the other two may have sexually assaulted her while they were drawing on her, but nothing in the police report alleges that sexual intercourse occurred.
Audrie, whose identity was publicly released by her family partly in the hope of spurring a landmark anti-bullying law, was at the Saratoga house party with 10 other youths and was visibly drunk, according to a report encompassing evidence seizures and interviews of several of the nearly one-dozen partygoers by the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office.
The document says Sheriff's detectives seized several cellphones, laptop computers and peripherals, and other electronic items belonging to the teen suspects.
Also in the report, the suspects admitted during the initial investigation that they also drank at the party, which contradicts a statement made by Allard during a Monday morning press conference.
Several witnesses described beer being at the party, and the sight of an empty bottle of vodka on a counter.
The level of intoxication Audrie exhibited in the report suggests that she would have been unable to consent to any sexual activity.
"Pott was in the kitchen and she was falling over and tripping," according to an account by one attendee given to sheriff's investigators.
Another told the detectives that the victim "was stumbling around and would be probably not be able to answer simple questions."
When she awoke in the morning, the report states, Audrie's memory was reportedly hazy but she slowly began to realize what happened to her.
"Pott was scared because someone had put her in a room and took off her clothes, leaving her underwear on," a witness reported.
She turned to her friends for answers.
"Pott had asked several people, via Facebook Messenger, why she had woken up with her pants off," the report states.
Other witnesses told investigators that one of Audrie's friends and the three juvenile suspects -- who she had considered to be her friends -- brought the victim to an upstairs bedroom, presumably so she could fall asleep there.
Instead, the report alleges, the three suspects stayed behind in the room proceeded to draw on the passed-out Audrie, pulling off her shorts and in some accounts partially removing her bra, exposing her breasts. The markings were reportedly on her chest, legs, back and near her genitalia.
One suspect initially claimed that Audrie egged on the boys during the alleged sexual touching but later backed off that statement when challenged by an investigator.
Another friend admitted to walking in on them but denied actually seeing the drawing or the assault. A girl who went into the room later and found the disheveled victim and placed a blanket on her.
After the alleged assault one of the suspects admitted to sending a photograph of the incident to another. That same suspect reportedly told other partygoers that he deleted the photos, but drew their suspicion after he was later seen at school with a group of students huddled around his phone.
One suspect was arrested and cited for sexual battery related to the drawings near the victim's intimate areas, and was released to his parents.
During the course of the interviews, sheriff investigators found themselves dealing with sharply conflicting statements and suspicions that the students, most of whom attended Saratoga High School, were lying for each other. Some even claimed that Audrie initially laughed off the experience.
"It also seemed as if she was trying to cover up for someone to prevent them from getting in trouble," an investigator wrote about one student in the report.
"We told her the importance of telling the truth not only to find out if a criminal act had occurred," the report states, "but to give a sense of closure to (Audrie's) family."

IN THE gold-plated world of the luxury saloon, Mercedes' S-Class is king. In recent years the German firm's luxo-barge has undergone a radical transformation from visual wallflower to striking contender for Boldest Saloon of the Year Award.
Contrast this with BMW's 7 Series. The previous generation car came out of the blocks in 2002 rocking a radical new look that divided opinion. The current fifth generation car is a noticeably more sober machine. Where the S-Class wears the latest in cutting edge Italian clothes, the 7 Series opts for Hugo Boss.
Still, this approach hasn't harmed the big BMW's chances. Demand for the car globally remains strong – especially so in emerging markets where the petrol models are often the default choice – while Europe still has a soft spot for the diesel variants.
Only one thing was holding the car back: its ride. Compared to more the more recent and advanced cars from Mercedes and Audi, the 7 Series lacked the same level of precision and comfort, which is hardly ideal for something pitched at the executive and chauffeur markets. This, then, is a thoroughly revised 7 Series, aimed squarely at the competition.
What do you mean you can't see any changes? Okay, so it's fair to say that BMW's exterior designer was on a three-day week as the changes are limited to tweaks to the grille and new LED headlights. Granted, the latter is a big improvement, just don't go looking for major sheet metal adjustments.
Progress has been made, though. Considerable gains have been made in the ride and comfort departments plus in boosting economy and reducing emissions across the range, thanks in part to the standard fit inclusion of a new eight-speed auto gearbox and engine stop-start. For diesel users – that's the popular 730d and performance orientated 740d – that means a sub-150g/km CO2 rating for the former.
For the 750i petrol V8 model tested here there have also been useful reductions in running costs, and this model does much to highlight BMW's impressive efforts with its Efficient Dynamics programme. The 443bhp V8 is no slouch, propelling the 7 Series to a sub five second zero to 62mph time and on to an electronically limited 155mph. But what's really clever for a car of this size are the 32.8mpg economy and 199g/km CO2 figures, a result of BMW's engineers tinkering with the engine's Valvetronic technology to modify the intake system during periods of low activity. This isn't as aggressive as Audi's cylinder shutdown approach but, in BMW's words, it's more like 'dimming' them.
While a diesel model is more appropriate for cash-poor Europeans, the 750i is almost a default choice for buyers in emerging markets. And its performance should give a good indication as to how the cooking diesels will behave with the same mechanical changes.
To counter the criticism of the old car's inconsistent ride quality, self-leveling rear suspension is now a standard feature across the range. This, combined with various detailed changes to the suspension hardware, delivers a welcome improvement when driving over mixed surfaces and the predictable potholes that scar urban landscapes the world over.
Also welcome is the inclusion of BMW's Eco Pro mode in the grandly titled Driving Experience Control system. Essentially this offers the driver another choice alongside Comfort and Sport, and enables a firmer or softer ride, weighty or finger-light steering, the appropriately complimentary damper settings and, crucially, engine mapping to match the various modes. For many Comfort will offer a consistent balance of plush ride and engaging steering, although thankfully the Eco Pro setting doesn't stifle the car's potential either and does much to get you close to those impressive economy figures.
If you need a gentle reminder as to what mode you're in, the car's new 10-inch digital display changes colour to match. Don't worry, BMW hasn't embraced the 1980s with a Casio-style cheese-fest of digits. It's more like Jaguar and Land Rover's efforts, with the display replicating analogue clocks. But here's the clever bit; they can be redrawn depending on the mode, so you've got a blue-tinged theme and 'eco meter' for Eco Pro and a red-themed display with oversize numbers for Sport.
The facelift has also allowed BMW to add the wealth of recent new hi-tech kit from lesser models, such as web connected services, high-end audio options, intelligent headlights and enhanced electronic safety and convenience aids.
Overall, then, this mid-life uplift for the 7 Series has done a good job of keeping the car in touch with the competition. Buyers at this end of the market are often a conservative bunch, which helps put the oh-so-subtle exterior changes into perspective.
What's more impressive is the step forward in ride comfort. Don't forget, this car and its longer wheelbase cousin are key movers in the executive chauffeur industry, and the new car's set-up has done much to banish the shimmy and shake of the old car. Factor in BMW's relentless approach towards boosting fuel economy and you've got a more rounded and appealing proposition.
Model: BMW 750i, from £71,340 on the road.

Officials from Lauderdale County and the state were on hand Thursday at the Lauderdale County Sheriff's Department to finalize a deal for a dollar.
That's how much the department paid the Mississippi Department of Transportation for a used van to transport state inmates who work as trusties.
"Frankly it gives these prisoners something to do. People like to see convicts out working and not laying up in a bunk somewhere. So, it's a great program," said Central District Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall.
Lauderdale County was one of the first counties in Mississippi to sign up for the program ten years ago and partner with the state.
Each year local officials say the program saves the county a lot of money.
"Roughly it's going to save about $100,000 (a year)," said Lauderdale County administrator Joe McCraney. "What you have is a van donated by MDOT and Dick Hall and also we have inmates that are picking up trash on the side of the road instead of having to hire people to do it."
"Besides the county recouping the expenses of having the inmate do the work, the county is also reimbursed at $20 a day per (state trusty) inmate for housing that inmate," said Sheriff Billy Sollie.
"It's a win-win deal and a great example of how state and local governments can work together," said Hall. "We have a serious litter problem in Mississippi. We spend over $3 million a year at MDOT dealing with litter."
Sheriff Sollie says the van currently being used to transport trusties to pick up trash is not dependable. He says it often breaks down and thus cannot be driven. His hope is that the new van will help his department get a full 40 hours of work each week from trusties.
Although Lauderdale County is authorized to house up to 35 state inmates who serve as trusties, for now it only has 17. Of those, about six generally pick up litter along roadways. The rest primarily work around the courthouse making necessary deliveries or performing maintenance and cleaning duties.
Meanwhile, as for the litter pickup program that involves trusties in Mississippi, MDOT officials say most counties currently participate.

WALNUT CREEK — Asked about his reaction to Minnesota reportedly reaching an agreement in principle to trade forward Kevin Love to Cleveland, Warriors coach Steve Kerr said he didn't have one.
"It doesn't include our team, so when other teams make moves, that's really their business," Kerr said Thursday.
The trade for Love involves Cleveland sending No. 1 overall pick Andrew Wiggins, forward Anthony Bennett and a 2015 protected first-round draft pick, according to Yahoo Sports. Any deal involving Wiggins would not become official until Aug. 23, one month after the former Kansas star signed his rookie contract.
It's possible the Warriors could get back into the Love sweepstakes by sweetening a trade proposal, but Kerr seemed confident that there would not be major changes to the existing roster.
"All indications are that this is the group we're going forward with, but you never say never," Kerr said. "You never know what's going to happen, and ultimately that's not my job. I'm coaching the team that's here, but there's no question that we feel very confident and comfortable with the group that we have. The team's been on the rise the past couple of years, and I believe in continuity and players growing together, and that's what we're trying to accomplish.
Klay Thompson, a subject of trade talks involving Love, was among the Warriors players that recently dined with Kerr and general manager Bob Myers in Las Vegas while training with USA Basketball, according to Kerr, who declined to comment on their discussions.
Thompson was named by Kerr as having an "automatic" starting spot along with Stephen Curry, Andrew Bogut and David Lee when a boy at the Warriors Basketball Camp at Tice Valley Community Gym asked the coach about the lineup this season.
"Andre (Iguodala) started last year, which he probably will, but there's a lot of options that we have because we've got really good players in Harrison (Barnes) and Draymond (Green)," Kerr said, adding that likely he would use the same lineup as last season. "But most of it usually comes down to how the combination fits...how do the pieces of the puzzle fit. We'll determine that in training camp who plays best together, who's going to start, who's going to come off the bench."

(WOMENSENEWS)-- Hollywood is raiding the bestseller lists of young-adult serialized paranormal romances, hoping to replicate the spell that the leading couple of "The Twilight Saga" -- Bella Swan and Edward Cullen -- held over the box office.
Over the Twilight series' five-film, five-year run (from 2008 to 2012), it brought in total worldwide profits of $3.3 billion. ("Harry Potter" tops the list at $7.7 billion, but that franchise consisted of three more films.)
As anyone who hasn't been living inside a coffin since 2008 knows, the once-human Bella (played by Kristen Stewart) had a heck of a time contending with paranormality, particularly given that her suitors were far from the ideal models of the boy next door. She was torn between two lovers -- thank heaven, not literally -- with shape-shifting wolf man Jacob on the one quasi-human hand and ruby-lipped sparkly vampire boy Edward on the other. No spoiler here, she went the way of the vamp.
But her ilk will not go gentle into that good night.
Avid "Twilight" followers (known colloquially as "Twi-Hards") are probably lining up now for tomorrow's opening of "Beautiful Creatures." Populated with witches (called "casters") rather than vamps and wolfs, the movie promises young adult filmgoers another breathless saga of enchanted love.
"Creatures" features Alice Englert as Lena and Alden Ehrenreich as Ethan, star-crossed lovers who find themselves counting down the days to Lena's 16th birthday when, as a spellcaster, she will be claimed by forces of either light or dark.
The good news . . . if this film doesn't scare up young crowds, two more follow in quick succession:
In March, "Twilight" novelist Stephenie Meyer is trying for an encore with "The Host," telling the quadrangle love story of a heroine named Melanie, her alien implanted soul named Wanda and their two separate suitors.
In August, "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones" delivers the story of 15-year-old Clary to the screen. She thinks she's perfectly normal . . . until she realizes she can see supernatural beings invisible to others. When her mother disappears, Clary turns to the mysterious Shadowhunters -- particularly the handsome Jace (Jamie Campbell Bower) -- for help.
A Deeper Look
While publishers, producers and studios hold their collective human breath, hoping for a box office that's far from undead, we might want to take a deeper look into the mindset and the themes behind these tales:
- Puberty redefined as a supernatural force: Given that adolescents experience radical physical changes during puberty, there is a certain poetic metaphor to conceptualizing the process as an out-of-body, uncontrollable force. A young girl contends with developing breasts, menstruation, changes in anatomical shape and composition and possible acne, all due to the flood of hormones coursing through a body that she may have trouble recognizing as her own. She might as well be possessed by some unseen power that leaves her at its mercy.
- The colorless heroine: If the heroine lacks identity, the narrative allows the young reader-viewer to jump into the character's vacuous skin, living vicariously through the heroine's adventures. With a constant cry of "I don't know who I am" echoing throughout many of these stories, it serves as a virtual invitation to the YA fan to imprint herself onto the character.
- The weak alchemizing into the strong: The story transforms the initially weak heroine into a strong goddess -- usually even stronger than her would-be boyfriend, supernatural or not. By reaching out to every young woman who struggles with issues of inferiority, the message is obvious. Similar to the heroine, the reader-viewer is capable of turning from an ugly ducking into a beauty, accompanied by superior skills and power. A beautiful creature, as it were.
- Bonding with mom: Rifts are legion between a mother and her adolescent daughter, who is often attempting to break free of the nest. However, the ever-growing popularity of YA among an older demographic allows for a new meeting place, a new bonding between parent and child. A January 2013 Publisher's Weekly article, citing the latest Bowker study, says that "84 percent of YA books were purchased by consumers 18 or older . . . dispelling the notion that the YA books are gifts or purchases for teens, fully 80 percent of respondents reported 'they bought the book for themselves.'"
Disturbing Trend
That said, while the lure of YA appears undeniable, it may suggest a disturbing trend. Given the fact that the state of adult literacy in the U.S. is failing (according to the Forbes piece, "The Un-Education of a Nation"), the preference of rudimentary Meyer over, say, Mailer, Malamud, McCarthy or Michener is more than a tad concerning.
By the end of August though, rather than any magic incantations, the profits of these three films will ably forecast the longevity of this genre.
In the meantime, let's not give up the ghost just yet. It's possible that with any one of these upcoming films, YA may surprise us with a new, intrepid young woman on par with Katness Everdeen of the YA action film "The Hunger Games." (That franchise's second installment of "Catching Fire" opens this November.)
Perhaps weak, easily controlled heroines like Bella have sung their final swan song. Perhaps, in keeping with the movie's Valentine's Day debut, Lena of "Beautiful Creatures"' will deliver a character both strong as well as starry-eyed . . . just in time to celebrate the holiday of true love.

Steve Sunu, also commonly known as the American buffalo, is a North American species of editor/writer that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds. His range once roughly comprised a triangle between the Great Bear Lake in Canada's far northwest, south to the Mexican states of Durango and Nuevo León, and east along the western boundary of the Appalachian Mountains. Due to commercial hunting and slaughter in the 19th century, Steve nearly went extinct and is today restricted to a few national parks and other reserves.

Giants fans may have cringed a bit watching Michael Morse make his home-team debut in left field in the first game of the Bay Bridge Series at AT&T Park. Morse overran a double in the corner. He dropped a lazy fly ball for an error. He made a valiant dive on a sinking Josh Donaldson liner but let it get by him for a triple.
Even by Morse's own admission, it did not go well. But he's hoping we've seen the worst of it before the games start to count.
"I'm glad I got it out of the way today," Morse said after the Giants' 4-0 loss to the A's on Thursday night. "I'll tell you what, that was a first for me (dropping such an easy fly). It's tough, but that's what these games are for, and that's why we're here to play under the lights. I haven't had a chance to play left field here a lot, maybe one game. But I'm getting used to it, getting acclimated to it, learning the lines and knowing what the ball does in the air both early and later in the game.
"I'm hoping for a ton of fly balls tomorrow."
So what happened on that Josh Reddick floater in the fourth that should have been a can of corn?
"The ball went up and then it just went back toward the infield," Morse said. "I learned a lesson tonight. Don't take any ball here for granted."
Morse is not known as a great outfielder, but he's not exactly regarded as a butcher, either. He's made three errors in nine years playing the outfield for Washington and Seattle, and while errors aren't a strong defensive indicator for outfielders, it's hard to see how Morse will be any worse than late-era Barry Bonds or Pat Burrell. If he hits 20-25 home runs for the Giants, no one will care that much if he botches a few. That said, he'll need to be better out there than he was Thursday or it could be a long, painful season defensively.
Bruce Bochy cut Morse plenty of slack in the wake of his dubious left field debut for the Giants.
"He just needs to play a little more out there," Bochy said. "He's missed a lot of time. That's why I left him out there and why he'll be back out there tomorrow. He'll get used to it. That's why you have spring training, and unfortunately because of his calf, he's missed a lot of time out there on defense."
Bochy also called AT&T's left field "the toughest in baseball" to play. That might be a stretch, but the lights and tricky winds can make it a challenge.
"He (Morse) just needs a few games under his belt," the manager said. "It can be a tough left field to play, especially when you're not acclimated. But once you get out there for a few games, you get used to it."
For Morse's sake, let's hope so.

1 Q. [Mr Irving] --- over the weekend, is that correct?
2 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes, I have.
3 Q. [Mr Irving] Could you, again in just a very few lines, describe how
4the documents you have read in that bundle support or
5refute your own -- I have to ask what these papers are
6that you are looking at.
7 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] This is simply a statement that I wrote out.
8 Q. [Mr Irving] I think we will have to ask you to testify really from
9within yourself rather than from the written paper.
10 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes. I was not aware of that.
11 Q. [Mr Irving] Yes. Having read the bundle of documents, would you
12describe roughly what the bundle of documents comprises?
13 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Well, the bundle of documents comprises a record of
14suppression of David Irving, cancelling of speeches,
15avoiding of contracts, as a result of pressure of various
16Jewish organizations in different countries.
17 Q. [Mr Irving] Just from one country or from several countries?
18 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] From several countries -- Canada, South Africa, Australia,
19I believe.
20 Q. [Mr Irving] You would put the suppression of that book within that
22 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes. If I had known about that actually, I would have
23explained in that section, including more examples of
24that, showing some examples of that.
25 Q. [Mr Irving] Have you seen items in this bundle which lead you to
26believe that the Second Defendant has made herself a part
1of that endeavour?
2 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes, I have. There was an article in the Washington Post
3quoting her -- I do not have the exact quote here. I can
4read it.
5 MR JUSTICE GRAY: If you are going to rely on it in some way,
6perhaps you could tell me what it says?
7 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes.
8 MR IRVING: It is ----
9 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] OK. In the Washington Post of April 3, 1996, she is
10quoted as saying: "In the past ... it says that in every
11generation there shall be those who rise up to destroy
12us. David Irving is not physically destroying us, but is
13trying to destroy the memory of those who have already
14perished at the hands of tyrants. They say that they do
15not publish reputations, they publish books, but would
16they publish a book by Jeffery Damer on man, boy
17relationships? Of course, the reputation of the author
18counts and no legitimate historian takes David Irving's
19work seriously". It is that last part that certainly drew
20my attention because I have seen historians praise his
21work, but also just the fact that she was literally part
22of the pressure on St Martin's Press.
23 Q. [Mr Irving] Can I ask you to go to page 250 of the bundle?
24 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] I do not have a copy here.
25 Q. [Mr Irving] I will give you a copy. This is bundle E, if you go to
26page 250 of bundle E?
1 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes.
2 Q. [Mr Irving] Is that a letter from the Simon Wiesenthal Centre to the
3Second Defendant, Mrs Deborah Lipstadt?
4 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes, it is on the head of Simon Wiesenthal, signed by Saul
6 Q. [Mr Irving] Does it make reference to a student paper I sent to you?
7 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes.
8 Q. [Mr Irving] Does Mr Litman who wrote the letter conclude the letter
9saying, "Please recognize that it is not for publication
10or direct quotation. It is, after all, an unedited
11student's work and contains many phrases and comments that
12neither you or I would use in a situation which clearly
13involves considerable delicacy"?
14 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes, that is a direct quote.
15 Q. [Mr Irving] Would you now turn to page 251?
16 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes.
17 Q. [Mr Irving] Is this, apparently, an anonymous report of
18approximately ----
19 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] 25 pages.
20 Q. [Mr Irving] --- 12 pages or thereabouts called, "History Rewritten,
21the World of David Irving"?
22 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes.
23 Q. [Mr Irving] Have you seen anything in that report which indicates that
24there has been a deliberate attempt made by an
25organization to destroy my legitimacy as an historian?
26 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Well, yes, on page 253 ----
1 MR JUSTICE GRAY: What do you say this document is that you are
2looking at, Professor McDonald?
3 MR IRVING: It was a document that was provided to the Second
4Defendant by the Simon Wiesenthal Centre, my Lord.
5 MR JUSTICE GRAY: That is the one referred to in the letter you
6have just taken us to?
7 MR IRVING: We have to presume so, my Lord. It took a certain
8amount of fight to obtain a copy of this for the
9solicitors. I had to obtain court order finally to
10obtain a copy of it.
11 MR JUSTICE GRAY: I see.
12 MR IRVING: They provides what looks like the covering letter
13in a separate episode and gave it the same discovery
14number, No. 500. But all I propose to do is to rely on
15the content of this document which went to the Second
16Defendant, and you have drawn our attention to page 253,
17and which paragraph do you consider is suggestive of an
18attempt to destroy my legitimacy as an historian?
19 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] In the first full paragraph, is still in the introduction,
20it refers to quotes later on from you, but then it says in
21the middle of that paragraph: "These quotes serve as a
22clear example of why he should not be allowed to
23disseminate his message of hate as freely in other public
25 Q. [Mr Irving] Which paragraph is that again?
26 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] The first full paragraph on page 253.
1 Q. [Mr Irving] Beginning with the words "The focus of"?
2 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes.
3 Q. [Mr Irving] "These quotes serve as a clear example of why he should
4not be allowed to disseminate his message of hate as
5freely in other public forums"?
6 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] That is quite correct, and further ----
7 Q. [Mr Irving] At the bottom of that page, can I draw your attention to
8the sentence beginning, "The importance of" ----
9 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes.
10 Q. [Mr Irving] --- "such work is to deny Irving the legitimacy he so
11desires in his attempts to spread his anti-Semitic and
12racist messages", and are there any other passages in that
13which indicate an organized attempt to destroy my
15 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] Yes, just a minute here. It probably bears mentioning on
16page 256 that, although the author of this report does
17view David Irving as a flawed historian, it is
18acknowledged that his revisionist themes are interspersed
19with genuine historical insight. Again, that is, sort of,
20what exercises me, but at the bottom of page 258, the last
21paragraph on page 258.
22 Q. [Mr Irving] Would you read it out, please?
23 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] The entire paragraph?
24 Q. [Mr Irving] Yes.
25 A. [Professor Kevin McDonald] "David Irving's techniques challenge the most educated
26minds to adopt his version of reality. By revealing

James wrote us to say
I read bike hugger in a feed reader and I was disturbed to see a Jimmy Dean sandwich ad appear below a story on bike commuting in the rain. I went to the BH front page and there's a big ol' Viagra ad posted below the same story.
Besides being really tacky these ads aren't apropos of cycling or in my opinion any healthy lifestyle.
Can you guys be more selective about who you let advertise on your site?
and I responded, "at Bike Hugger we're friendly to all sorts of cyclists, including those that eat sausages or take erection pills."

Years ago a friend showed me this style, because another friend fo ours used it. I told him the other friend was whacked out on something, but have seen a couple other people throw these since.
Today the Shot of the Day is exactly that - this Turbo Putt, an overhand, level flick w/ the spin of a sidarm throw. Just thrown from head-height. I resurrected that put once last week when putting over a bush about as tell as I am - and made the putt where any other underhand/loft/sidearm wouldn't have been tall enough to get over the bush.
Short Story: Another putt style to add to the bag in case of emergency!

RANDOLPH – The Vermont Chapter of the March of Dimes today honored Gifford Medical Center with a Leadership Legacy award.
The award, presented by March of Dimes Vermont Chapter Director Roger Clapp, recognizes the Randolph hospital for both its commitment to prenatal, birth, and newborn care, and its support of the March of Dimes.
"This award recognizes Gifford's leadership in newborn care, which has been ongoing for a number of years, as well as Gifford's support of the mission of the March of Dimes, which is to improve the health of babies," Clapp said.
The March of Dimes strives to prevent birth defects, premature births, and infant mortality through research, quality initiatives, community services, education, and advocacy. Gifford has been a leader in low intervention births and midwifery and obstetrics for more than 30 years.
The hospital is also a supporter of the March of Dimes' upcoming March for Babies walks in central Vermont on Sunday, starting at the Montpelier High School at 9 a.m., and the Randolph walk on May 19, starting at the village fire station, also at 9 a.m.
"We're really proud of what we do. We love what we do. We work with a great team of providers and staff. We have the same goal to start babies on the right foot, and we're here to support them, I say, until they go to college," said Gifford Birthing Center registered nurse Karin Olson.
"For more than 30 years I have had the honor of working in Gifford's Birthing Center caring for more than 5,000 newborns during this time," added pediatrician and pediatric hospitalist Dr. Lou DiNicola. "There is no better model that I know of to provide excellent, family-centered care for our mothers, families, and newborns. The midwives, obstetricians, nurses, and pediatricians in Gifford's Birthing Center provide a superb setting that is safe for our newborns."
This is the second recent award for the Randolph hospital for its work around positive birth outcomes.
Gifford's midwives were recognized as a "best practice" in the nation by the American College of Nurse-Midwives. The practice looked at 2010 benchmarking data and named Gifford as having the highest success rate with vaginal births after caesareans as compared to similar small-size practices. The midwives were additionally named a "runner-up best practice" for both lowest rates of low birth weight infants and operative vaginal births. Operative vaginal births means births using vacuum or forceps.
Vermont as a whole has also been recognized for having healthy babies. The Vermont Chapter of the March of Dimes was the only in the nation to receive an "A" rating recently from the national March of Dimes organization. The rating, explains Clapp, looked at the state's reduction in premature births. Vermont's rate of premature births is 8.4 percent compared to a national average of 12 percent. The March of Dimes has set a 9.6 percent premature birth rate as a 2020 goal – a figure Vermont is already well below.

1. Head coach Charlie Titus and the Beacons are coming off one of their best seasons in recent memory, after finishing 12-13 and 8-4 in Little East play. UMass Boston returned to the Little East Conference Tournament for the first time in three seasons and finished the year with a sparkling 8-4 mark in front of their home fans.
2.Titus (32nd season) is just three wins short of reaching the 300-win mark for his career. No other coach in UMass Boston history has ever reached the 200-win mark with one program, with UMass Boston Volleyball coach Terry Condon (197 wins) the closest.
3. UMass Boston is set to host the 29th Edition of the Harbor Invitational the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving. The Beacons cruised to a pair of wins last year to earn their first Harbor Invitational Championship since 2005. This year's field includes Emerson College, Wesleyan University and the College of St. Joseph (Vermont).
4. The Beacons will play one of the toughest schedules in the Little East Conference, including contests against New England powers Tufts University, MIT and nationally-ranked Rhode Island College, along with a potential showdown against #1 Amherst College in the Amherst College Tournament this weekend.
5. UMass Boston's roster features seven new players, including five true freshman. Juniors Gregory Young (Boston, Mass.) and Steven McGuire (Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.) each played at a junior college for two years, before transferring to UMass Boston.

When the boys from Ohio come out of the Don Drumm Stadium tunnel and rush onto the field Friday evening for the 20th Annual Battle Against Cystic Fibrosis Football Classic, they will be led by head coach Eric Huck.
Huck was chosen to guide the Ohioans after leading his alma mater Fort Frye to an 8-3 season this fall. The Cadets claimed a share of the Pioneer Valley Conference championship in 2012 and also earned a birth in the Ohio Division III state playoffs, losing in the first round to Kirtland.
Huck has helped turn the Fort Frye football program into a year-in, year-out contender. After his first season as the Cadets' head coach in 2008, in which they went 3-7, Fort Frye has not suffered a losing season.
Overall, Huck has compiled a 29-22 record in five seasons leading the Fort.
The Ohio boss is quite familiar with BACF games. Huck, a 1996 graduate of Fort Frye High, played wide receiver and defensive back in just the third BACF contest ever in '96.
About ten years later, Huck had the opportunity to be an assistant coach under head man Chad Coffman for the Ohio squad.
Now, Huck will lead the way for the team from the Buckeye State.
"I've been apart of it basically since it started," Huck said.
"It's pretty special to me."
Huck and his team certainly face a challenging task, as the Bobby Burnside-coached West Virgina team will be chomping at the bit to get back on the winning track.
The West Virginians had won two years in a row before Ohio ran away last year with a 48-0 victory last year.
Overall, W. Va. leads the series 12 wins to Ohio's seven.
In this year's BACF game, if Huck can produce the same kind of results he has throughout his career at Fort Frye, Ohio figures to have a good shot at claiming a second victory in a row.

Hmmm, 1987…That Year Rings a Bell
Another day, another gain for the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average.
The Dow is riding a five-day winning streak, has risen in 10 of the last 11 sessions and is up 5.5% this month. That marks the best start to a new year since 1987 when it rose 10.84% during the first 16 trading days, according to WSJ Market Data Group.
1987, eh? Here's hoping we don't see other comparisons to '87 come late October.
Plunge in Apple shares on Thursday puts the whammy on the Nasdaq, but the Dow and S&P 500 soldier on, marking fresh five-year highs despite looking fatigued near the close.
Stocks were making their standard final-hour sprint higher, but ran out of gas 15 minutes short of the close. That left the Dow with less than half its gains at session high, and the S&P 500 barely limping in with a rounding-error gain.An unexpected drop in jobless claims helped sentiment on consumer-discretionary stocks, and health-care shares had solid gains.
The Dow finishes up 46 points to 13825.33, and sits less than 300 points away from record highs. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite sheds 23.29 points to 3130.38, led lower by Apple Inc.'s 12% drop. The S&P 500 ends 0.01 point higher at 1494.82, extending its streak of gains to seven straight sessions.

I found this & though I'd share just because it was in this episode.
Currently writing: The Missing Link!
Trip's lost was unrealistic. How can Emboar one hit kill Conkeldurr with Fling? It makes no sense. It was good to see Ash go comfort Trip after his lose even though Trip sort of bushed him off.
Like I said for ep 731, it's been months since I've seen this episode and it's hard to keep track of what happened in which Clubsplosion episode, so if I refer to events from the wrong episode, I apologize in advance.
I was glad that Trip went down early in the tournament and left town, I'm not too fond of the guy anyway. A quick exit is fine with me. I also liked Georgia going down and joining Burgundy in the pouting corner, that was hilarious. Cilan getting interrupted during his evaluation time was funny too.

Bianca's win here didn't make her look good. Her best Pokemon almost lost to Trip's weakest Pokemon and even then she only won because of a cheap move.
Yeah, calling it now, it's going to be Stefan and Montgomery in the final battle. This rivalry between Sawk and Throh isn't just going to be built up for nothing in the end.

Share your comments on Chris Paul Demonstrates the Eurostep below back to the article page.
For non-NBA players (who don't get the advantage of 2 steps by rule), a key point is to pick the ball up off the dribble on that first mis-direction step..then the last Eurostep will be the lift-off step in the opposite direction for the shot.
Nice move and it really works. But unfortunately being a 33 yr. old pickup basktball player, I tried this move at full speed and as soon as I planted my right foot out far and hard, I blew my knee out and went down. Torn ACL and Meniscus! So, be careful planting that foot and I think the key is too slow down while your stepping. I didn't slow down and probably put that knee out too far. I won't be trying this again. Good move though.
Too much talk leading up to demonstration of the move, and then no actual demonstration of the move in its entirety. Should show the entire move, with a defender, if players are really expected to learn to use the move in a game situation.
well, if you are like me who learns things really quickly then this move is easy a quick step too the right, then too the left, then making a layup sounds real hard
usually this move is most effective when the defender is trying to take a charge or has his hands up. if he has his hands down then the windmill crossover is better. (search on youtube dwyane wade windmill crossover to find out what it is).
he does it so smooth i love it
CP3 is the man. My favorite player. These tips are so helpful thank you so much it's making me a beast on the court.
This move is definitely helpful

1 Dead After Truck Collides With Train Near Downtown Orlando
Published: Friday, November 30, 2012 at 5:48 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 30, 2012 at 5:48 a.m.
A dump truck driver was killed after his vehicle collided with an Amtrak passenger train south of downtown Orlando.
Amtrak spokeswoman Christina Leeds says six passengers and two crew members from the Silver Star Train 91 were taken to hospitals for minor injuries Thursday.
