'Lone Star': A smooth-talking Texas two-timer
Published: Monday, September 13, 2010 at 8:00 a.m.

Amy Lippman can pinpoint the moment in the pilot script for "Lone Star," Fox's new drama about a young, charming Texas con man named Bob Allen (James Wolk), when she knew this was a television series worth joining. In a hotel bar, a flirtatious beauty invites Bob up to her room, but he politely informs her that he has a couple of reasons for turning her down. What the audience knows and the woman doesn't is that Bob's living a double life, married to the daughter of an oil baron in Houston and living in small-town Midland with a second sweetheart whom he will soon — spoiler alert — also wed, and that he's deeply in love with both of them.
"I found myself thinking: 'He's such a fantastic guy! I love him! He's being faithful to his two wives!'" said Lippman, an executive producer for Lone Star. Of course, she quickly realized that she was mooning over a smooth-talking bigamist who swindles people for a living. "That defined what was interesting for me about the show, which is, he's sympathetic even though he's in this horrible dilemma of his own making." Soon, Christopher Keyser, her longtime writing/producing partner, read the layered, morally thorny script by the show's creator, Kyle Killen, and he was on board as well.
One part "The Riches," one part "Dallas" with a little bit of "Big Love" thrown in, "Lone Star," which arrives Sept. 20, can appear to be an unlikely project for Lippman and Keyser. In Hollywood, they are typically associated with "Party of Five," an award-winning teenage-oriented weeper they created, produced and wrote about a family of five young orphans, played by very telegenic actors. But the pair, who met in a playwriting workshop at Harvard in 1985, have spent much of their careers weaving together intricate story lines on character-driven television series with large ensemble casts like "L.A. Law" and "Sisters." This will come in handy on "Lone Star," given that Bob's endless Ping-Ponging between Houston and Midland requires the creation of two distinct worlds.
"With 'Party of Five' we had to invent crises over and over and over again; that poor family," said Lippman, sitting on a couch next to Keyser in their office on the Culver Studios lot in Culver City, Calif. "With this show there's something extremely dynamic at the center of it, which is the threat of exposure. In that respect, it's fantastic because you're not starting from scratch with every episode. There's no 'What happens to them this week?' It's 'What are the consequences of what happened last week that will be played out this week?'"
Television series rarely, if ever, feature a protagonist who goes by Bob in one city, Robert in another and is referred to as "son" in the scenes with his father (David Keith), a lone grifter who has been coaching him in the art of the scam since he was a wide-eyed little boy. To keep the confusion of the unfolding hustles and tangled lies to a minimum, the director Marc Webb ("(500) Days of Summer") used visual cues: a handheld camera, an earthy color palette and lots of close-ups for the Midland scenes and their homey vibe, while reserving static, slick wide shots for what happens in the moneyed environs of Houston. Ultimately, however, the success of "Lone Star" will depend greatly on the performance of Wolk, who uses everything in his dramatic arsenal — an open face, a ready smile and, in those scenes with his ever-scheming partner-in-crime father, a flicker of reluctance in his eyes — to keep audiences on his side.
When Wolk first read the script, though, there was one detail that made him feel he couldn't play the part: "Bob was 38," said Wolk, who is 25. Ultimately, his character's age was adjusted to be in Wolk's range. The actor feels this makes it subtly easier for him to keep Bob/Robert likable. "Can you imagine if he was in his late 30s? That means this guy has been doing horrible, terrible" things "for at least 10 years."
In July, when the Television Critics Association convened in Los Angeles, the pilot for "Lone Star" generated an enthusiastic, hopeful buzz. The reception has been so warm, in fact, that Lippman and Keyser can be philosophical when their series is often described as an evening soap.
"The problem is that there is no nonpejorative phrase for an ongoing character drama," Keyser said. "Everything is called a soap. That's just how it is."
Lippman, trying to keep the disappointment out of her voice, added: "I don't think that anyone thinks of 'Breaking Bad' as a soap, and yet every week depends on what happened the week before and it's complicated and you're never sure what's going to happen next and there are cliffhangers. So we'll take 'soap' for now and see if it falls away."
Of course, Lippman and Keyser have more important things to dwell on than how their series will be labeled. "In the normal course of writing the scripts certain episodes will correspond with different holidays, and I have to say that the general level of anxiety among the staff about what this character will do for Thanksgiving is palpable," Lippman confessed. "We're all freaked out. He's married to two women. Where does he go? I think we've figured it out. But this is the kind of thing that keeps me up at night."

Mercedes impressed in last week's final Barcelona test, setting fastest times overall with single-lap efforts but also delivering strong long-run pace.
Although it is not clear yet just how much of a step forward Mercedes has made, Vettel believes that Hamilton and Rosberg could surprise.
"I finally took the chance to watch some of the other teams for a bit," said Vettel, reflecting on the conclusions from last week's test.
"Nico had a great final day of testing in his Mercedes, which shows how dangerous he and Lewis will be in the future. But there are a lot of others to keep in mind as well."
Vettel is pleased with Red Bull's own progress, but has drawn short of predicting that the outfit will be the pacesetter from Australia.
"All in all I am fairly happy with how everything went in these last weeks," he wrote on his own website.
"The team did a great job with the car and both Mark and I felt comfortable right away.
"We haven't come across any big problems and the smaller ones have been dealt with straight away. The RB9 has been so reliable that it's been a pleasure to drive.
"We learned a lot over the winter tests and we'll be bringing that new knowledge with us to Australia."

Ikeda (池田市 Ikeda-shi?) is a city located in Osaka Prefecture, Japan.
As of 2010, the city has an estimated population of 104,704 and a population density of 4,740 persons per km2. The total area is 22.09 km2.
In the Edo period, Ikeda had a castle occupied by a daimyo, the seat of a 50,000 goku domain. It was famous for Ikeda-zumi (Ikeda charcoal) traded by Ikeda merchants. In Cha no yu Ikeda-zumi is loved because of its high quality even today.
The city was founded formally on April 29, 1939. It was developed as an urban town by a local railway company, Hankyu Dentetsu. Its founder Kobayashi Ichizo (Itsuo) lived there also.
Ikeda boasts two cultural attractions: the Itsuō Art Museum and Ikeda Bunko (Ikeda Archive). Itsuo Art Museum holds the Itsuo Collection which is mainly Japanese art for cha-no-yu; Ikeda Bunko holds collections on Takarazuka and other materials related to Hankyu Dentetsu. There is also a municipal Zoo named Satsukiyama Zoo.
It is also home to the Momofuku Ando Instant Ramen Museum.
On June 8, 2001, the Osaka school massacre occurred in this city. A man entered an elementary school and fatally stabbed eight children in the school. Many pupils have suffered post-traumatic stress disorder. To avoid flashback memories of the massacre and to improve school security, the school buildings were remodeled and subsequently occupied in April 2004. On September 14, 2004, Mamoru Takuma was executed for the murders.

To me, this thing looked like a legit thing, but then I got to the bottom and read the contract. Something didn't seem right.
Normally I'd throw things like this away immediately, but recently I'd entered myself in a contest for winnings said to be between $25 and $100 million and I immediately assumed that this letter was telling me I'd won something.
I've seen a few webpages about this, with a few different scans of the letter(s). So far, the only things that I can see that are different from one letter to another are the name, the amounts of money that the "other" winners won, the "postmarked/prioritized" date, and a few smaller things, like that code underneath the words "RESTRICTED COMMUNICATION FROM THE LAS VEGAS, NEVADE ACTIONABLE AWARD PROGRAM ON (date)"
My winnings, even, have matched, so far, every single case I've seen. Yes, I've been confirmed for a prize "over $3,341,006.00" as well.
Again, thanks to those who have helped me see before I sent out the $20, and thanks to you guys, I'll be sending back the Business Reply Mail envelope withOUT the $20, along with the contract NOT signed, and a letter to them with a few choice words about how I feel about being "scammed". I might be naive, but I'm not stupid. Thanks again all!

The End has Arrived
This is the way the world ends

This is the way the world ends
Not with a whimper but a bang.
This year's NZ Skeptics Conference was a resounding success. All the organisers would like to thank the speakers, for their amazing talks and their willingness to hang around and chat with everyone, and our attendees, who made for such a fun, friendly atmosphere. It was great to see everyone in Christchurch, and we hope to see everyone again next year in Southland.
More pictures of the conference will appear here soon. In a few months, once we have some more details, this site will be updated with information about our exciting new 2016 Conference line up.
For now, here is some of the feedback we received from the 2015 conference:
The conference was easily one of the friendliest and most accommodating events I've attended in a long time.
The weekend would have to be amongst the top 5 conferences I've attended over the last 20 years.
Excellent conference, excellent choice of speakers, excellent organisation. Very impressed that this was all put together by a small group of volunteers, it was very professionally done. I thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. It was, in fact, excellent!
Very interesting speakers and much to think about.
I found the speakers all really fascinating and thought provoking, the conversation very engaging and the food delicious.
Well organised, interesting, approachable speakers, healthy food (with chips!).
Thanks to the organisers of the conference. It's been fun listening to some great speakers.
Great time at the conference. Well done on a seriously professional job.
I'm struggling to understand why skeptics have a conference at all. Are they all just sitting there rolling their eyes?

Wednesday Oct. 22, 2008
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- A failed inspection following an 11th-place finish at Martinsville Speedway on Sunday could lead to stiff fines and penalties against driver Brian Vickers and Red Bull Racing.
Based on previous NASCAR rulings this season, Vickers might lose
150 driver points and Dietrich Mateschitz 150 owner points while crew chief Kevin Hamlin could be suspended indefinitely. That would cost Vickers a career-best finish in the points standings. Although the highest previous fine this year was $100,000, Red Bull might face a harder hit because stock car racing's governing body has escalated its penalties as the season progresses.
Vickers is tied for his career-best position in the standings at 15th, but the penalty would drop him to 17th with four races to go. NASCAR is expected to release the penalties this afternoon, according to a spokesman.

Here's a minor problem I've encountered: when using the '%postname%' "tag" in the permalinks options, if you have diacritic characters in your titles (you know, accents, ç and stuff like that) they get "converted" all right, but those diacritic characters are left out.
So, if you have a title saying 'Regardez ça!' (or 'Regardez ça!' in case this board munges those characters), it will be "converted" to 'regardez-a'.
Of course, you could choose words in your titles that avoid those characters (although in French this could be quite tricky), or ignore the problem altogether. But I wondered if this could not be fixed in a future release? After all, that other blogging tool (MT) converts those characters without problems.
I am not a programmer, so I do not know if this is feasible, but it could be a matter of including rules like:
é -> e
à -> a
è -> e
ü - u
ç - c
etc. I'm sure you got it by now.
Any ideas (or reactions) regarding this?

Dr D was wonderful when my husband was hospitalized with a serious condition, helped get all the specialists together for an important consult. Strongly recommend him....great knowledge and caring.
Dr. Downing is a very intelligent, well educated and trained internist. He diagnosed on a n initial visit for an issue, on two separate occasions my problem, made the appropriate treatment plan which only required one follow up visit to adjust medication. The conditions were picked up quickly and promptly correctly treated.
I have been a patient of Dr. Sean Downing for over five years. Dr. Downing is an excellent doctor. He listens to his patients, and explains his recommendations. I am 100 percent satisfied with Dr. Downing. We have recommended him to several friends, and they are also pleased with his service. He has an excellent educational background and experience.
My wife and I have been patients of Dr Downing and have found him to be excellent at both diagnosing and treating illnesses over the last 7 years. He is careful, considerate, and always follows up with patients. He is on top of things and doesn't let them develop into major problems. He takes the time to listen to problems. I highly recommend him.
Simply the best there is. He is always patient and has delivered 100%.
Dr. Downing is an excellent primary care physician who is well versed in the latest medical information. He works diligently to keep you healthy and on the right track and when you need a specialist he can quickly obtain an appointment for you because he is well regarded by his colleagues.
Decided to see Dr. Downing after being recommended by a co-worker. First impression, he was very nice and seemed to care. I also started taking my son to see him. My son has ADHD and a high metabolism and therefore is very thin, Dr. Downing's solution...McDonald's and Burger King. Mind you, we have an extensive family history of heart and cholesterol issues. I could not believe it. Also, sometimes I felt as though he only heard part of what I was saying. I thought it was only me, until my husband took my son in and came to the same conclusions. He is nice and personable but felt like my visits were a waste of time sometimes.
Dr. Downing is by far one of the most caring, compassionate, and intelligent physicians in Sarasota. Excellent diagnostician...very well-trained at top notch schools...he is a true asset to our medical community!
he was in a rush after we waited for 45 minutes!! He was more interested in checking his phone messages than treating my grandfather. He came highly recommended from a neighbor whose son is a Dr. I have worked in the medical field for over 20 years and I was not at all impressed with his bedside manner. I wish I had known that he was also a pediatrician because I would have never taken my grandfather to him. NOT IMPRESSED!!

This recipe is adapted from one created in the kitchens of King Arthur Flour and published on kingarthurflour.com.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Make Rich Chocolate Icing and allow to cool slightly.
Meanwhile, in bowl, cream together butter, salt, vanilla and baking powder until smooth. Beat in sugar, then egg. Add flour to butter mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour. Mix slowly, until well blended.
Drop batter by 1 ½-teaspoon drops onto parchment-lined cookie sheets, 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with a wet-bottomed glass or using a knife dipped in water.
Bake in preheated oven 11 to 12 minutes, or until cookies have risen and are mottled brown on the bottom. (Cookies will have very little discoloration on top.) Do not overbake; ideal Berger Cookies are very soft.
Cool cookies completely on a rack. If desired, cookies first can be dipped into chocolate icing to coat their bottoms. If you'd rather not have the mess, then skip this step and pile icing on top of cookies. Icing should be up to ½ inch thick. Let set 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
Rich Chocolate Icing (makes about 3 1/2 cups):
Place chocolate chips, corn syrup, vanilla and whipping cream in large microwavable bowl. Heat until very hot, about 3 minutes on high power, and cream forms small bubbles. Remove from heat and stir until smooth. Beat in powdered sugar until smooth.

The 29-year-old's contract had been due to expire in 2014 and he was linked to a move back to Brazil with Santos last January.
The former Real Madrid and Manchester City forward said in April, however, that he was happy in Italy and wanted to renew his contract.
"AC Milan announce that Robinho has extended his contract to June 30, 2016," Milan said on their official website.

KING to Quit
Ladies & Gents alot af rumours going around about Ledley is ready to quit through injury??
I hope this is just a rumour,and hope he gets back to fitness soon but What if its true,who else could we buy to replace him?
Dawsons been great,gardner is never been ideal,Rochca will take time?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

I reckon its fake too but michael owen was out for yonks with a similar foot problem before his knee problem so i'll be patient. on replacements i'm not sure what would be available. in this country there is no equal centre half outside of chelsea or man u. or perhaps micah richards and cutis davies but we'd pay a fortune for them. we'll probably have to get another young-un from championship which will put pressure on daws for a bit and would mean not breaking the top four for another year.

Curtis Davies or Micah Richards would not be equall to Ledley but I dont think anyone we could get would be anywhere near him. Heard good things about Davies though so would be good if we could get him but he and Richards would both be well overpriced. Think Davies is a much more realistic target though. We need ledley back more then anything, no replacement would have his talent or experience.
I really really hope its a rumour, sure it is. He's only 26 and should be back soon, hopefully stayin injury free for rest of the season. Thinks he's the main reason for our disappointing season in the premier league. He's our best player by far and that isn't sayin anything bad about the others cos we have some superstars but I wouldn't say that John Terry has got anything on a fit Ledley. Hopefully hes still got a long career left at the lane.

King came in and replaced judas campbell and has been the rock of our defence when fit, if he stays fit for the rest of the season we will be hard to beat.King and dawson will rule once they are back together

Article written by a mischievious Arsenal fan perhaps? Seems strange to have come out at the same time as King himself states that a March comeback is likely.
king has hip and back problems and may have 2 retire as surgery wont cure it. i hate 2 say it but he mite not play again.
not_blonde_really not_blonde_really Feb 28, 2007 02:11 Flag
Ledley won't go anywhere.
He's too young to retire, even on medical grounds, and to be a professional footballer you have to have the obsessive drive to succeed, there's no way he'll stop playing until his doctor ties him down & forces him to (look at John Terry...).
And he's Spurs through & through, even if he didn't think his fitness will get back up to scratch for the team he wouldn't leave until Big Mart made him.
He knows he's got medals in him, he just needs a bit of time.
A Yahoo! User Feb 28, 2007 02:05 Flag
He has been quoted as saying he will be back sometime in March, so it's just rubbish rumours you have heard.

Home Cooking: Hailey turns family experiences into a love for cooking
As a child, Gloria Hailey spent a lot of time in the family kitchen, watching and helping when possible to create meals and dishes she learned along the way.
Today, Hailey uses her love for cooking to create dishes for her guests at The Columns Bed & Breakfast, which she runs, along with her husband Charles. And, she attributes that passion to her years of sharing time in the kitchen with the women in her life.
"I can't ever remember not cooking with my mother," said Hailey. "She always loved to be in the kitchen.

from the beginnig (booking) to the end (our actual stay in prague) everything worked perfekt. i highly recommend the river view apartments in this amazing city - you'll live like a king! ;)
The first time that I book here. Great apartment, great view and good location. Katarina and team were always available by email, which was great. Also on site all right. Only the male counterpart of the reception was not nice - unfortunately, very rude. His manager Andrej has it made up for it and the other ladies on the next day was nice. Appartent is in a great, great view. Towels should be more, and it was only a bath towel per person provided no towel. The one must then get awkward in the office. Beautiful, hand and bath towels when there are equal. Round, we would go back again.
Das erste Mal, dass ich hier buche.
Super Appartment, toller Blick und gute Lage.
Katarina und Team waren per Email immer erreichbar, das war toll.
Auch vor Ort alles in Ordnung.
Nur der männlich Kollege von der Rezeption war nicht nett - leider, very rude. Sein Manager Andrej hat es dafür wieder gut gemacht und auch die anderen Damen am nächsten Tag waren nett.
Appartent ist super gelegen, toller Blick.
Handtücher müssten mehr sein; es waren nur ein Duschtuch pro Person vorhanden leider kein Handtuch.
Das muss man dann umständlich im Office holen. Schöner, wenn Hand- und Duschtücher gleich da sind.
Rundum, würden wir wieder hinfahren.
Really nice and clean apartment in the center of the city! No problems, very easy communication and organisation! Thanks!
Very nice apartment, large and well restored. Reliable and competent organization. However, the proximity of a bar restaurant that ends at 4am, creates noise incompatible with a good sleep.
Très bel appartement, vaste et bien restauré.
Organisation fiable et compétente.
Toutefois, la proximité d'un bar restaurant qui termine à 4h du matin, crée des nuisances sonores incompatibles avec un bon sommeil.
Wounderful organisation, flat clean and good situate. Thanks
Excellent grip upon our arrival at the airport. Wonderful apartment, we enjoyed it very convenient given the taxi service offered by the agency.
Excellente prise en main dès notre arrivée à l'aéroport. Magnifique appartement, nous avons passé un séjour extraordinaire rendu très pratique par le service taxi proposé par l'agence.

Very well located, 1 min from the famous Old Town square and the shopping district. The apartment is very nice, just as shown. The owner called me at my arrival at the airport and helped me find the check-in place. I stayed only for a night and everything was perfect. They also offer to take you from the airport, which I recommend. I decided to find my way myself and ended up paying much more for a taxi.

Hurricane Earl is a beast right now. Check out the satellite presentation below:
Earl rapidly intensified on Sunday night and early Monday morning and boy is it a classic looking 'cane. A category 4 hurricane to be more specific... Thankfully, Puerto Rico did not take a direct hit from Earl or they would really be in bad shape. Earl is now north of the island and will threaten mainly the open waters of the Atlantic, IF the forecast track verifies:
NHC shows Earl coming dangerously close to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, before heading toward parts of New England. It is unlikely that Earl will venture too much farther west, but some of our computer models show a more westerly track.
It will be interesting to see if Earl curves later than the models are suggesting. The one good thing is that the models are very tightly packed together in their forecast tracks, which should bode well for a solid forecast. More on Earl tomorrow...

I got the car and noticed that when I used the a/c my car would be totally wet on the inside. That was where the stink smell was coming from when I was test driving it. I called that in. Two weeks later my "service engine soon" light came on. To make matters worse I went to do my laundry and on my way home my car started overheating. I drove it home and called and spoke to the manager. He said that I had no warranty on the car but to take it to their mechanic. He said I would have to pay.
I distinctly told him that I would not pay a red penny because I had just received this car and the problems were preexisting. He said to take it to the mechaninc anyways. I dropped the car off. Two days later I went to pick my car up. The next morning as I drove into my job the "service engine light" came back on.
I went inside and called again. But I forgot to tell you the nasty attitude of the manager when I went to pick my car up and wanted me to pay for something that they did not fix. My car was still leakin, the service engine light was still on and my windows would not go up and my car got soaked from the rain.
I NEED HELP!!!! I have to get out from under this trap. I have tried trading it in and all the dealers have run in the other direction. My concerns are too much to even write. Please please help.

CVS is better!!!
CVS has been Breaking Records for over a year
While WAG is late to the party
While $50-60 has been the split price in the past, I think it's a different world today than 20 years ago. I'd probably say it's now $75-80 and they'll have to be in front of CVS. Let's see where the next month or so brings us. Big swing today!

Local Area:
Pittsburgh was voted the number one place to live, and the university campus is a short and free 5 min bus ride downtown. The campus has a suburban atmosphere even though it has many buildings and is so close to downtown. There is always something to do and I have never been bored. The campus is small on a map, but it leaves out the off-campus living where most upperclassmen live. There are many different restaurants essentially on campus and they are moderately priced for the student population. The basketball stadium is on campus and the Penguins and Steelers both play downtown.
The police force is fair, but you have to deal with both the university, as well as the city of Pittsburgh, police force. They are not out to bust people, but if you are acting belligerent or you are doing something stupid, they will cite you or even arrest you. They are not out there to cite or arrest you, but they will not look the other way if you are doing something either
Off-Campus Housing:
While Pittsburgh in general is a nice place to live, Oakland is not. For some reason, throughout history, the profession of landlord seems to draw the most sociopathic individuals into its ranks The landlords blame the students disproportionately in order to sweep their own transgressions under the floor, and they get away with it b/c there's such a need for housing. Outside of Oakland of course housing is a lot better but will inevitably be more expensive per sqft w/ a farther commute. Landlords to be wary of: avoid Lobos like the plague, Trends, Win Realty, Karmin, PGH Capital.
Every race/group are represented except for Hispanics I've only seen 2 or 3 in my 3 yrs at Pitt. There are plenty of groups and clubs that focus on minorities
Its overcast all the time especially during the winter and there is always some type of precipitation.It still gets plenty hot during the summer and only the newer dorms have air conditioning, so bring a fan :)
Pitt focuses a lot on the engineering and science majors so the arts are just kinda there. With that being said the teachers are great and there is a more intimate feel for the art majors since there is not a lot of them.
Drug Safety:
Like any school there are drugs and alcohol but if you don't want to be involved there is no pressure.
It is very rewarding but also very frustarting to be a molecular bio major. You definitely learn a lot in the general bio and chem classes, but the fact that they are weed out courses--especially for bio 1-- is incredibly difficult. You could be a perfectly good student and still receive bad grades in these classes because you are not good at multiple choice questions or you end up being in a class full of guaranteed med school students (who will cut your throat to get a better grade than you). The workload is immense and however much you think you should be studying, you need to study more. There are tons of opportuinites for research and volunteering through the school and UPMC. You need a lot of determination to get through this program because the faculty will try to weed out as many people as possible but if it's what you really want to do, keep going! You will figure out the system.
I like cold weather so winter isn't a problem and fall and spring are beautiful. Summer can get too hot and humid though
Computer labs are pretty good with a mix of apple and windows though software availability isn't really consistent throughout.
Health & Safety:
I feel very safe on Pitt's campus. Police presence is good and lots of buses to/from campus so there's not a lot of loitering.
Health & Safety:
I have never felt unsafe on campus, even late at night. The dorms have 24-hour security guards. The surrounding neighborhoods are quiet and the only trouble/noise generally comes from other students after a night out drinking.
The police and administration are fairly strict about underage drinking and drug-use. The administration are also very strict about academic integrity and cheating in classes is taken very seriously.
There aren't many places available for parking, so buses are a huge part of Pittsburgh. It's very easy to figure out which bus to take using the computer or smart phone, and buses come very often so you have many options. The buses normally arrive a couple minutes late.
Greek Life:
Greek life isn't a huge thing, but if you want to join, there are many options. In my opinion, the fraternities act completely normal to other guys and girls not in Greek life, but sorority girls sometimes act as if they're better.
Coming from upstate New York, I'm very used to snow without school getting canceled. When I went to Pitt, I knew that I was in for long Winters and not too warm weather. It is definitely warmer than home, so I'm very content. Just bring lots of warm clothing!
Health & Safety:
There are police many places in Pitt, and I feel extremely safe there. There are things called blue lights all over, which are these blue lights that you can hit if you feel unsafe and a police officer gets there as soon as possible. They are always in vision from anywhere you are!
For parents/friends/prospective student visiting: Around busy times of the year like move-in, graduation, and around breaks, it is really hard to find parking, but any other time, you can usually find a spot without driving around for too long. Most spots are metered, but are free evenings and Sundays. Don't ever try to take a chance and park somewhere illegally or not pay for a meter though, because there are Pittsburgh Parking Authority people everywhere and they WILL give you a ticket.For students: Don't bring your car to school! Permits are expensive and student parking locations are very inconvenient/far away. You can ride all the public transportation for free with your Pitt ID.
Parking in Oakland is horrible in general. Pittsburgh parking authority are ruthless and will do anything to give you tickets, so make sure you pay and print out the ticket and put it somewhere visible on your dashboard. The best place to park is the tiny lot between 5th and Forbes on Oakland Ave and South Bouquet. The meters are older so they are cheaper than the newer meters.They are Pitt meters as well and rarely monitor over there.
Off-Campus Dining:
Lots of local restaurants and chains near by. It's always good to have panther funds on the weekends because most restaurants on forbes accept them. Students also study in places such as panera, starbucks, and so on. You can tell the restaurants around campus really cater towards the students.
Lots of people from different countries, some of which English isn't their first language. Which is great to have that type of exposure to other cultures. But the races rarely intermingle and the University itself doesn't do much to bring everyone together.
Local Area:
Nightlife is pretty decent, if your 21. Good restaurants and shopping, lots of food on forbes ave and surrounding area
Political science is a great major, but i know tons of other schools that have better programs. The major isn't as easy as it looks, you will have to put a lot of effort into the required courses but the upper levels are actually easier. Internships are really competitive out here so make sure you have a great GPA and Resume. I want to go to law school and the program isn't really integrated with the legal studies major/minor.
Campus Food:
There are a lot of options but sometimes the quality is questionable.
The campus shuttles are very reliable. The city buses are free so it is easy to get around all of Pittsburgh and surrounding neighborhoods.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Overall, students agree that they wouldn't trade their Pitt experience for anything. As with most decisions, there are a lot of things to consider. If you don't like living in a city environment, Pittsburgh may not be the place for you. While it doesn't have the feel of New York of Philadelphia, the area is definitely urban. Also, Pitt is a large school—you're in for some big lecture classes and a somewhat overwhelming campus during the first year or so. Everything will seem to get smaller after you've been around awhile, though. Weather can be a concern if you're used to a warmer climate—snow, rain, and wind rule Pittsburgh winters. This is something that you can easily get used to though, unless you're a diehard warm weather fan.
What Pitt does offer is high-caliber academics, plenty of student organizations, and countless opportunities, such as study abroad, cultural activities, and sports. If you're willing to become active on campus, there's a lot more to Pitt than meets the eye. The University's location can also be a great advantage—Pittsburgh itself is a great city that is a positive environment for students to live and learn in, thanks in part to the city being home to a number of colleges and universities. The social scene is always jumping, locals are friendly, and there's always something to do if you explore a little. The best idea is to visit and try to get a feel for the area. You can get the same quality education at Pitt that can be found in many smaller, expensive schools, but here you'll pay less to have a vibrant city right at your doorstep.

PUBLISHED: 10:25 EST, 7 December 2012 | UPDATED: 15:29 EST, 7 December 2012
After attending 132 Bruce Springsteen shows, New Jersey governor Chris Christie has finally had some recognition from his musical idol.
For many years, Christie's love for the singer was unrequited but, as he explained on The Daily Show yesterday, he recently got to grips with his hero.
During NBC's fundraising concert for victims of superstorm Sandy last week Governor Christie got a hug from The Boss, and he told host Jon Stewart that he tried to be 'cool' but wasn't.
Scroll down for video
Al Roker tweeted this picture of the two famous New Jersey resident meeting backstage at the Sandy benefit concert
Christie is a Springsteen fanatic. But despite his best efforts, the liberal musician has long ignored the Republican politician. Springsteen campaigned for President Obama during last month's elections.
Yet at NBC's telethon last Friday, the two New Jersey natives met backstage, and hugged it out.
Christie and Daily Show host Stewart, also from New Jersey, are at opposite ends of the political spectrum. But they agreed on two things on last night's show.
Firstly that agreed they 'can't wait, and know, that the great state of New Jersey will bounce back stronger than ever' from the devastation wrought by Sandy. Secondly, both men 'would very much like' Bruce Springsteen to hug them.
The New Jersey governor has attended over 130 Bruce Springsteen shows. Here he shows off another concert ticket for a gig at Giants Stadium
Christie then told of his experience last Friday. He turned around backstage to find Springsteen standing behind him, offering a handshake.
The governor accepted, then the singer said 'Come on, give me a hug.'
Stewart inquired into Christie's hugging technique, asking if he also gave the singer a pat on the back during the embrace. Christie confirmed that there was no patting involved - the hug was 'slow dance' style.
According to Christie, Springsteen then said: 'It's official. We're friends.'
Chris Christie's Springsteen obsession is well-documented - he sang Thunder Road on TV with Jimmy Fallon
Bruce Springsteen campaigned for President Obama during last month's elections
Stewart moved on to ask Christie about relief efforts in New Jersey, pointing out the irony of the governor bashing President Obama's leadership before the storm, then praising Obama fulsomely after the disaster.
'It tells me people have different skill sets at different times,' Christie said.
When a picture was taken of Christie with his eyes shut at a Springsteen concert in April, it was claimed that governor had fallen asleep.
Instead Christie claimed that he was merely closing his eyes to better enjoy Rocky Road, a song he describes as 'spiritual.'
At the time he stated: 'I have never fallen asleep at a Bruce Springsteen show, I will never fall asleep during a Bruce Springsteen show, my wife is probably afraid that I'm more likely to die during a Bruce Springsteen show than fall asleep.'
Chris Christie claims he is now 'friends' with the legendary musician

5 songs from local acts to listen for at this weekend's Index Fest
Photo: Jonathan Stafford
"Where You Been?" A.Dd+
Grab your spot for this set early if you can. Paris Pershun and Slim Gravy make up one of Dallas' biggest-drawing rap acts, and they're sure to give a fiery performance full of head-bobbing selections from their two full-length releases. "Where You Been?" is a track from 2013's Divehiflylo, which I believe will see a national release soon. I'm loving the contrast between the syrupy Burn One-produced track and the rapid-fire verses. Day 2, 12:20-1:35 a.m. at the Boiler Room, 2723 Elm St. (Listen on the link below)

Let me just put it out there, this isn't the best of Valentine's Day recipes. It is known to create stinky breath, it has been accused of tasting like soap from many a cilantro hater, it's really bright green (definitely not red and not really sexy), and it's best eaten stuffed in tortillas thus creating the very real possibility of chicken or salsa or both on your fancy outfit. I think my subconscious may be fighting back against the whole idea of the day and forcing me to share bright green chicken. However for everything this recipe isn't, it is one thing delicious. That is if you love cilantro. The chicken hangs out in a ton of cilantro and garlic overnight and then gets cooked up in a skillet or on the grill. Easy, peasy.

In the past on multisite, I've used the wp-replicator plugin with much success but it does not appear to work at all under this model. Is there a recommended way (or different plugin) that folks who are using Networks for WordPress can recommend? We basically have a collection of topic related sites that we need to replicate (and then do very minor modifications to) for different geographies.

First I think this plugin is wonderfull, thank you.
I am a inexperienced programmer and I am stuck trying to create a json to retrieve user and usermeta data. I read all the documentation even the controllers, models and example files.
I think models/author.php is close to what I want but I don't know how to continue.
¿How can I test this author.php model?, ¿how could I personalize it for my purpose? (retrieve user data and metadata given it one ID or email).
Any help is welcome. Thank you.

Fostering kitties can be a rewarding opportunity to teach young cats social skills and nourish them though early stages of life. You may get the chance to foster several groups of kittens in one season. While foster programs vary, general prep tips can help you get started.
Items you will need
- Water bowl
- Food bowl
- Bedding
- Litter box, litter and scoop
- Kitten food
Step 1
Find foster kitten programs near you. These may be run by animal shelters, SPCA groups or other nonprofits. Your vet should be able to direct you to local kitten foster opportunities.
Step 2
Read the program literature, noting any requirements. You may need to live close to the foster location, own a car so you can transport kittens, commit to attending foster mom education classes or other classes, and complete an application. If you have existing pets, you may need to keep the foster kitties in a separate and enclosed room. Complete the application if required.
Step 3
Prepare a safe space for the kitties. Kitten-proof your enclosed room by blocking electrical outlets and small holes, removing anything kitties could accidentally ingest or get into, and sealing windows. Kitties need water and food bowls, bedding material, and a litter box. The rescue organization may provide some or all of these, or you may need to purchase them.
Step 4
Bring home kittens when your foster program has little ones in need of foster care.
Step 5
Feed the kittens a prescribed diet of kitten milk replacement or kitten food (your foster organization should provide you with food). The organization should tell you how much food to give the kittens each day and how many times a day to feed them, based on weight. If your kittens do not eat or do not gain weight, contact the foster group.
Step 6
Play with the kittens as often as you can. Some organizations have recommended minimum playtime, such as three 20-minute sessions per day. Try to follow these guidelines.
Step 7
Bring your kitties to any medical appointments they need. Foster groups may provide free medical care.
Step 8
Return the foster kitties when time is up. Some groups have a weight-based guideline, such as asking foster moms to return kittens that weigh 2 pounds. Others may have a time-based limit, such as number of weeks in age.
- When fostering kittens, you are responsible for following all of the guidelines the foster group puts forth. When in doubt, don't second guess or call your own vet -- follow the procedures provided.

Help support your Meetup
The purpose of Las Cruces Board Gamers is to provide a welcoming location for adult game hobbyists to meet and play board games. The emphasis of this group is on modern thematic, fantasy, strategy, sci-fi, designer, cooperative, Euro, party, and gateway games.
People of ALL races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, political orientations, and religions are welcome here (though political and religious discussions are best left for outside of gaming). We just want to meet great people, make new friends, and play games!
Please note: This group is for ages eighteen and up. If you are looking for a gaming group that welcomes children and has children's games available, then I highly recommend the 4G: For Gals'n'Guys gaming meetup group in El Paso. Alice, the organizer for 4G is amazing, and you'll love her. (Or, if you wish to host local family friendly game days at your home and post them here on our site to get the word out, please email us, as this can be arranged!)
