Below is the most convoluted hoax I have ever come across. I almost fell for for it, I really need a computer. But my instinct said something wasn't right. This scam involves an iBook computer, Western Union and a fake shipping company called Express TNT.
I found an ad on craigslist New Jersey for a 12" Apple ibook, G4 1.33 GHz Power PC with OS X Tiger. The ad claimed that it was 14 months old with 22 months left on the Apple Care warranty. The price was $400.
I contacted the seller, one Sarah Beswick. She claimed that she had just moved from central New Jersey to Manchester UK, but that she still had the computer and hoped I would buy it. She sent me pictures and told me about a third party transaction/shipping company who would take care of getting the computer to me in the US.
Here is the text from one of her messages:
"Sarah Beswick :> > >> > Hello I will pay for a 2 days delivery so you will> > receive the laptop within 3-4 days.Obviously we need a> > safe way to complete this deal that will allow us to make> > sure we receive what we are after.

I hope the readers notice the mispellings, poor grammar and crazy formatting. This is a clue that something was not right.
Here is the text of the package confirmation e-mail from the fake shipping company, express-tnt.com:
"TNT Express Package Confirmation and Payment Request Form

I googled TNT Shipping, they are a legitimate company. However, they do not offer any third party transaction services of any sort. It's a questionable business practice. Sarah Beswick and her iBook ad has been flagged on several local craigslists (San Diego, Richmond, Philadelphia, New Jersey). If I had my way the FBI would be looking for her too. I'll settle for bad press on sites like this.
This iBook ad is a total scam. Don't do it. They are liars and thieves. Do not send money to anyone you do not know in order to purchase a computer (or any other item) you have not seen. Do your transactions locally. There should be no reason to involve Western Union in the purchase of a computer. And in no case should a computer purchase involve overseas shipping.
Thanks Ripoff Report!

In order to properly prepare F10 updates, all F10 builds are now targetted at dist-f10-updates-candidate. This is a setting in the 'common' directory of your package modules, so you'll want to make sure you're using an up to date common. The buildroot for dist-f10-updates-candidate is comprised of dist-f10 content, which means builds done in dist-f10-updates-candidate will /not/ automatically be usable in the buildroot. You'll need to request a buildroot override in order to do build sets. Also, any build that we break the freeze for and tag for Fedora 10 release will also be available in the buildroot. I have locked the dist-f10 tag so that no more builds can automatically get tagged. If you have a build that fails due to a locked tag, you can either ping releng, or manually tag it yourself for dist-f10-updates-candidate: # koji tag-pkg dist-f10-updates-candidate <build-n-v-r>
Will we be able to create updates in bodhi for F-10 now then? I don't mind some smaller fixes / updates being shunted to F-10 updates because of the freeze. But last time around (if I remember correctly) one could actually create the updates in bodhi for quite a while, which meant one had to remember or write down a list of packages to create updates for once bodhi finally was able to do updates for the upcoming release. Regards, Hans

Y'know, networks seem to be having some relative success recently in reviving older classics. Someone could probably take another run at reviving this gem, just maybe approach it from a different angle. Perhaps by not making it so Bram Stoker-ish -- at least, that's the vibe I got in the earlier eps.

One reason not many people are overly familiar with this revival series of Dark Shadows was that it kept being pee-empted for news coverage of the Gulf War.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I was allowed to get my diploma certificate at Thomas Jefferson School of Law. When I worked on my papers, my computer flash drives were stolen many times. It was identical to what I encountered at Regent University School of Law. I put this incidents on my facebook, and that is the reason my former field consultant asked me to work for her favorite franchisee store. I am not willing to work for her because she treated unfairly me in the past. When I made an order, she said you cheated.
This is defamation and dicriminatory. I accepted that job because I am responsible to support my families. The said store got rob twice in the first month of our assignment. I am sure that this has a connection with conspiracy hate group. Before I need to send the draft of my dissertation, my flash drive was stolen. I reported this to my advisor and my neighbor said he found somewhere. I never leave my flash drive outside.
I tied my flash drive to my pant all times. It is needless to say that he went into my house and stole it. This must be warrantless searching into my house. Three months ago, I called my cell phone from my landline, and it went to Regent University. I called my cellphone provider (Verizonwireless), they confirmed that my phone was tapped by ext. 4047 of Althea Kime formerly known as Bishard. In addition to this, the McLane delivered twice a week before, however, now once a week on my schedules means I had to do more than before.
Last week, we had a big lot of McLane, and I needed to finish those before end of my shift. On that day my wife was working with me, and a customer approched me to take care of him with impolitely. I told him I needed to finish up this, so my wife would be able to take care of you. The next day someone went into my house and stole my flash drive again. They thought I didn't have the copy of my paper, but I still have in my editor's account. It is clear that who is playing the scene of this conspiracy hate group.
Yesterday, I found my flash drive on my refrigerator where I never put at that place. This morning my employer asked me to sign a paper saying I ignored a customer to take care of him, and I told him what I have mentioned above. I am sure that this 7-Eleven has a connection with Regent University as a conspiracy hate group and racism. Please help me stop this this illegal discriminatory. Thanks.

Halo:Reach Xbox 360
The 4th and final Halo game, created by Bungie. Halo Reach is a prequel to the first Halo game, originally released on the Xbox. The most refined version of Halo to date, and highly recommended to fans of the Halo Universe. My favorite addition to Halo Reach is the ability to customize the look of your Spartan/playable character, based on credits you receive for playing offline and online. I was able to preorder Halo Reach from Buy.com for $53.99 total, the best deal by far in a retail store or website.

C/o Senator Barbara Boxer
United States Senate
1700 Montgomery Street, Suite 240
San Francisco, CA 94111
Reference: U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, San Francisco
Dear Mr. Khan,
I acknowledge receipt of Mr. Vizcaino's letter directed to Ms. Sheila Cullen, dated 10 July, and I wish to add supplementary documentation supporting my thesis that the Veterans receive substandard food in the Canteen Food Service along with high prices at the Canteen Store when compared to local vendors and online shopping.
I believe if Senator Boxer is to reach those in charge she will be directed to the Management of the Canteen Service located in St. Louis, Mo. I have included documents for contacts in those respective offices. There are several buyers for both the Canteen Food Service and for the retail Canteen Store.
My intention is not self served but rather to help fellow Veterans, members of their families , and the staff at the VA facilities nationwide. On one had the information displayed by the VA portrays good and healthy food and competitive pricing. In reality, the opposite is true. Just ask those who have to eat there!
I have informally interviewed over 30 patients , medical workers and visitors. 100% of those indicated where they wish there was another food service option at the San Francisco facility due to poor quality and selection. The same percentage think the Canteen store is non competitive with the stores where they normally shop - Walgreens, Rite Aid, Longs Drugs, Costco, Target, Wal Mart, Amazon and other online retailers. I concur.
Thank you for your support and let's hope this investigation will lead to revisions in the operations of the Canteen to provide our nation's Veterans top quality and competitive priced food and merchandise.

"The jump is so frightening between where I am and where I want to be...because of all I may become I will close my eyes and leap!"
"The really unhappy person is the one who leaves undone what they can do, and starts doing what they don't understand; no wonder they come to grief."
"Creative powers can just as easily turn out to be destructive. It rests solely with the moral personality whether they apply themselves to good things or to bad. And if this is lacking, no teacher can supply it or take its place."
"A man has to work so hard so that something of his personality stays alive. A tomcat has it so easy, he has only to spray and his presence is there for years on rainy days."

Who is going to win the fight between Bernard Hopkins and Tavoris Cloud?
Who do you think will win and why?
I'm going with Hopkins by a wide decision. Cloud is perfect for him, in my opinion.

Bernard will lead but fade fast at age 48.
He is risking his health getting in the ring with another prime when he himself should have retired for health reasons.

I maybe shouldn't be doubting the old man again, but I'm picking cloud to outwork him and maybe stop him late. Then again Bhop likes to prove people wrong, that's what makes him special, and cloud can be quite crude

Come on...cloud lost BAD to Campillo. He's not in Hopkins league, even at 48. Hopefully Hopkins retires a champion after this fight.

Unless Hopkins just looks his age for the first time, he's too multidimensional for Cloud and should get a UD.

Unless Hop's age catches up with him, he's got this.
He's a much smarter fighter and will know exactly how to win this fight. If his physical abilities allow him to carry it out for 12 rounds, he'll add yet another page to his already sublime legacy.

This one could catch up to Hopkins. Cloud can hurt you, and Bhops defense isn't what it was. He could very well get caught coming in.

Look for Don King to pull out all the stops in this win for Cloud. Somebody better get a stretcher for his moms, though. She faints when her son gets those kind of decisions.
But in all honesty, if it's fair play (50-50 chance these days)... Cloud has never faced anyone like Hopkins. This could be a close but dirty fight. Bernard is masterful in getting away with veteran tactics, but I expect the cards are still going to go in favor of Cloud. Never underestimate................................Don King.

Simple Definition of laconic
: using few words in speech or writing
Examples of laconic in a sentence
We would rather have a smiling, shape-shifting Democrat we don't trust than a frowning, laconic Republican we trust more. —Maureen Dowd, New York Times, 10 Oct. 1996
The closest anyone comes to announcing his destination is a laconic "Guess I'll head on in." —Richard Rhodes, The Inland Ground, 1991
… towards the father—laconic, authoritarian, remote, an immigrant who'd trained in Galicia to be a rabbi but worked in America in a hat factory—their feelings were more confused. —Philip Roth, Granta 24, Summer 1988
He had a reputation for being laconic.
<the sportscaster's color commentary tends to be laconic but very much to the point>
Did You Know?
Laconia was an ancient country in southern Greece, bordering on the Aegean and the Mediterranean seas. Its capital city was Sparta, and the Spartans were famous for their terseness of speech. "Laconic" comes to us by way of Latin from Greek Lakonikos, which is derived from Lakon, meaning "native of Laconia." It has been with us since the 16th century and has sometimes been used with the basic meaning "of or relating to Laconia or its inhabitants" (though we're more apt to use "Laconian" for this meaning today). In current use, laconic means "terse" or "concise," and thus recalls the Spartan tendency to use the fewest words possible.
Origin and Etymology of laconic
Latin laconicus Spartan, from Greek lakōnikos; from the Spartan reputation for terseness of speech

Did my eyes deceive me or was the PGA Tour at Belle Meade Country Club in Thomson, GA last week?
I wonder if this person is a new Jets fan now? They sure are lucky that white shoe polish is so cheap.
@DanHicken @pat_dooley @Frank_Frangie @1010XLHacker @ballou1010xl Further proof that God works in mysterious ways.
For those #UGA fans not happy with Coach Bobo, it could be worse. #UF has MUCH bigger problem at OC down in Hogtown.
@DanHicken @TonyBoselli Did I just see Keenan McCardell with a headset on coaching on the Redskins sideline?
You kiss yo Mamma with that mouth? #YBYSA
@pat_dooley @DanHicken Is DT Jaye Howard going to be ok. Looks like he got an illegal chop block from Logan Stewart #60
@ClayTravisBGID Good to see that 1/2 game suspension taught Logan Stewart a lesson on illegal blocks. Hope #6 is ok.
Am I wrong, but you don't trick or treat until you can walk and you stop once you drive. Maybe next year little Buddy.
@elkpga Hey Elk, is this from your new line of camping apparel?
@hayscarlyon @danhicken He'll do anything to help win, but you ever seen QB taken in 1st rd wear receiving gloves?

Anyone want to guess over/under on number of times I was asked "are you lost" at the University of Florida Golf Course?
I KNEW it! OH YEAH! The Macho Man Randy Savage is NOT dead! Wonder if he, Elvis and Tupac hang out together?
So, I guess the warning label wasn't big enough to also say "and sometimes a little racially insensitive"? #Redman
Question of the day :Is #Gator Fan in the picture facing forwards OR Backwards to catch the baseball at the #CWS?

After a two-year effort, Quebec Native Women (QNW) is proud to finally present today its official report on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in Quebec.
Nānīawig Māmawe Nīnawind – Stand With Us, is the result of dedicated work in collaboration with the Minister of Justice, the DIALOG Research Network, and over 40 participants of which QNW is extremely proud. This report highlights the voices of Indigenous people who are directly or indirectly affected by this issue, including family members of the victims, frontline workers, justice and public security stakeholders, and members of the Indigenous Police Force in Quebec.
In the light of the recent launch of the national inquiry, this report proposes courses of action that, QNW hopes, will help stop this alarming and unacceptable situation. For this reason, QNW will gladly participate as a leading player during the consultation period of the national inquiry.
The report is being translated in english and should be available soon!

They're called megacaps for a reason: They're the market's biggest stocks, and the group is suddenly coming back into favor. And guess what? There are several exchange-traded funds ready to help investors focus on this segment of the market. But the solution may already be sitting in your portfolio.
Megacap ETFs limit themselves to stocks with market values well into the tens of billions, all the way up to $416 billion Apple AAPL -0.7676465081445423% Apple Inc.

The group is getting a lot of attention lately, in large part because the S&P 100, an index of the largest stocks of the S&P 500, is showing signs of life -- and may better hold its value if the market sells off. In February, the iShares S&P 100 Index OEF -0.1755472945064023% iShares S&P 100 ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 96.67 -0.17 -0.1755472945064023% /Date(1472590799065-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 366092 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 2.10789283128168% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » Fund (OEF) nudged ahead of the broader 500 benchmark for the first time in five months. Then it nearly matched the broader index in March, which is notable in light of the lackluster performance of its most closely watched member: Apple. S&P Capital IQ's Todd Rosenbluth told clients last week to consider buying an ETF devoted only to the biggest companies. "We like the megacap stocks more than we like the next 400," he says, citing the firm's positive investment ratings on the stocks, among other factors. Morgan Stanley's equity strategists went further, urging bullishness on stocks with a market value of $100 billion or greater, of which there are more than 30.
BIG STOCKS ARE OFTEN HAILED as ports in a storm during volatile markets. But that argument isn't what it's cracked up to be. Megacap ETFs perform much like regular old S&P 500 funds most of the time, bearing correlations as high as 99% in some cases. Plain-vanilla large-stock ETFs already give a lot of heft to the biggest shares: They weight their holdings by market value. The two fund types are similar -- so similar that you don't need a portfolio makeover to benefit.
Just as importantly, think about your time horizon. Megacaps managed to outperform in the rough market of 2011, but the advantage was less than a percentage point. The group didn't offer much protection in 2008, when it fell 35% (the broad index lost 37%). A buy-and-hold strategy in either index has produced positive returns for a decade, but the broad index -- which gives you the faster growth of firms that are merely large, plus the huge stocks -- has enjoyed a modest advantage. The most popular megacap ETF, the iShares S&P 100 mentioned earlier, rose an annualized 7.3%, versus the S&P 500's 8.2%, for the 10 years through February. The slim performance difference is one reason to avoid trying to time the market. Get it wrong and you'll end with smaller returns from both investments.
The argument for owning giant stocks is strong and increasing. The group's dividend payouts are steady and rising, and valuations have grown more favorable.

I know only we can decide for ourselves, but it's fun getting others input on this.
Should we TTC for number 4? Financially we can do it, and pretty much this summer would be the best time for us to conceive. This will be our first actually full out planned for pregnancy so that's a little exciting lol. With the twins we didn't fully have it planned out, we decided we wanted another and then BAM we were pregnant, and then BAM BAM it was twins lol. This isn't just baby fever from me either, DH actually brought it up over dinner one night saying how he didn't think our family was complete. How one more would be great. This caught me off guard quite a bit! I've been going through baby fever off and on the past 2 years, and he has always been there to tell me no not right now. We have gone from for sure a 3rd pregnancy later on to no more babies, back to maybe in the future and then he brings this up. Our main concern is if I can handle it. I'll be the primary care taker during the day, but DH will be home at night to help out when he's not studying and he'll be home on the weekends too. If everything went according to the plan (if we choose to go through with this now) we would conceive in July and have the baby in March. But, DH will be going down to Texas for anywhere from 2-4 months. So I would be here with a 5 year old, 3 year old twins, and a 4 month old. We could definitely get family up here to help, I have family 7 hours away, and my parents and in laws would probably fly in to help as well. I'm so back and forth right now!!! We are definitely going to wait until he gets settled into his new schedule before we decide, but this has been non stop on my mind since he brought it up!!
Plus what if we decide yes on #4 and #5 decides to tagalong again!? The twins are fraternal so I know my chances are higher, but I'm only 23 (pretty much in a week lol) and I'm tall (which highers my risk via google lol) and I'm white (which I think is neutral), but I am on the Mirena right now. I have read (via google) that getting pregnant right after the mirena is taken out increases chances of twins and MC.
I just don't want to TTC and then feel like I'm over my head. The twins were stressful on me, especially coping with the whole getting out of the military to be a SAHM and PPD all at the same time. (I know it's nothing to most people, but I took it really hard for some reason, that was my life, my dream and it was over just like that).

The Pittsburgh Penguins' annual propsects camp will be conducted in Kitchener, Ontario, from Tuesday, September 9th, through Monday, September 15th. The camp will open with 4-days of practice, followed by a 3-day series of games against prospects from the Florida Panthers, Ottawa Senators and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The prospects camp will be led by Wilkes-Barre/Scranton coaches Dan Bylsma and Todd Reirden. As was the case last year, the Pittsburgh Penguins' management, coaching and training staffs will be well represented at the camp. Among others, Penguins' coach Michel Therrien and GM Ray Shero will be on-hand to assess the talent in the sytem. Two young players that they will likely be watching are defenseman Alex Goligoski and winger Luca Caputi.
Alex Goligoski caught management's attention during last season's playoffs by scoring 28-points (4G, 24A) in 23-games, setting a new AHL playoff scoring record for defensemen. He also tied the AHL record for points in a playoff season by a rookie. Depending on how the Darryl Sydor situation works out, Goligoski could potentially be an early season backfill for Ryan Whitney who will miss the first couple of months while recovering from foot surgery.
Luca Caputi also made a name for himself last season by scoring 51 goals in 66 games for the Niagara Ice Dogs of the Ontario Hockey League. With the Penguins' depth at wing remaining a question heading into the fall, he could find himself being called upon in the regular season to round out the team.
In all, the Penguins will send 24 players to prospect camp. This includes the following 7 defensemen, 14 forwards and 3 goaltenders (click on any name for more detailed info):
- Aaron Boogard (RW)
- Luca Caputi (LW)
- Corey Cowick (LW)
- Jean-Michel Daoust (RW)
- Tommy Goebel (RW)
- Joey Haddad (RW)
- Dustin Jeffrey (C)
- Nick Johnson (RW)
- Cedric Lalonde-McNichol (C)
- Mark Letestu (C)
- Nathan Moon (C)
- Casey Pierro-Zabotel (LW)
- Keven Veilliux (C)
- Tim Wallace (RW)
For a complete and current listing of the young players that are "in the system" for the Penguins' organization, go to NHLPens.com–>Rosters–>In the System.
On September 16th, immediately following the Prospect Camp, the Pittsburgh Penguins' veterans will report to training camp. More details about the Penguins' training camp will be provided when released by the team.

As we near the end of our jQuery mini-tutorial series, it's about time we took a more in-depth look at one of the most used features of jQuery. AJAX allows a website to communicate with a server in the background without require the entire page to reload. From Facebook-style infinite status streams to submitting form data, there's a million different real life situations in which this technique can be useful.
If you haven't read the previous tutorials, I suggest you do so before tackling this as they build upon each other.
- Introduction: What is jQuery and why should you care?
- 1: Selectors and Basics
- 2: Methods
- 3: Waiting for Page Load and Anonymous Functions
- 4: Events
- Debugging with Chrome Developer Tools
AJAX is an acronym for Asynchronous Javascript and XML, but the keyword here is asynchronous. Asynchronous refers to the fact these requests occur in the background, not interrupting the browsing experience of the user. You've probably never even noticed it before, but if a website is updating itself dynamically, there's a good chance it's using AJAX to do so.
Before AJAX, any form of interaction with a server, be it fetching new data or posting information back from the user, would have to have been done using a new page load and redirections.
Today we're going to look at using a third party service, Flickr – from whom we can use AJAX to fetch some pictures using a JSON datatype. It doesn't actually matter how Flickr implements the receiving side of things, because that's the beauty of APIs – all we need to know is an API URL, what kind of data we're going to get back, and how to manipulate it.
For further reading, I wrote another tutorial a while ago about handling AJAX in WordPress for a contact form submission, so you may want to check that out too; it involves writing your own PHP handler, and integrating that into the "official" WordPress AJAX process.
The AJAX Method
Here's the basic format of an AJAX request:
type: "GET or POST",
url: "API or your PHP handler URL ",
// depending on what kind of data you want back, but JSON is the most common
data: { //a set of key:"value" pairs },
success:function(data){ //handle a successful return of data },
error:function(message){ //handle the error } });
This looks fairly complex at first – not helped by the lack of indentation from this code plugin – but you'll see how easy it is when get to a real world example.
Flickr API AJAX
In this example, we're going to grab the tags associated with the current WordPress post, and fetch some images to append at the end of the article. There's a similar example in the jQuery documentation, but it uses a short cut method called getJSON() rather than explaining a full AJAX format. While this is a valid way of doing things if you know you're only going to get JSON data back, I feel that learning the actual AJAX method is more important, so that's how we'll do it.
First, one up single.php and we'll try to echo out a simple comma separate list of the current post tags. Typically, you would use the_tags() to do this, but that's no good as we want to eventually store these as a variable, whilst the_tags() echoes them straight out pre-formatted. Instead, we'll use get_the_tags():
$tagslist = get_the_tags();
foreach($tagslist as $tag){
echo $tag->name.",";
This works nicely, so we'll output this inside of an AJAX request to the Flickr API URL as follows (note, this is a screenshot – in order to preserve indentation, the code is available at this PasteBin).
At this point, all it does it to output to the browser console, or alert an error message if there is one. To actually do something with the returned data, add somewhere for the images to placed:

And edit the success parameter of the AJAX call to iterate over the items that are returned.
$.each(data.items, function(i,item){
if(i==3) return false; // stop when we have 3
$("#flickr").append("");
And there we have it. We're appending 3 items from the returned JSON object (the data is zero indexed, so if get to item 3, we're actually at the fourth item. Confusing, I know. At that point, we use return false to jump out of the each() iterator). I've already examined the contents of the objects that are returned, so I know the data structure and I'm only extracting a link and IMG reference. If you're interested in knowing what else is returned, just throw a console.log(item) in there.
Here's the results on my test site, and the full code at this PasteBin. Notice that the results returned are basically junk – my post included the tag DIY for a walk-in chicken run, and Flickr has given me DIY knitting. Nice. Of course, this is one of the hurdles you face when working with an API and doing things automatically; you could either re-tag your posts (a considerable undertaking), change the request to ask for "all" tags instead of "any" (likely to return nothing in this case), or come up with a new custom field to which you would specify a targeted keyword to use with the API (probably the easiest).
SEO Considerations
This isn't a major point, but since you're in the business of developing websites it should be mentioned: search engines won't index content that doesn't exist at page load, such as anything done via AJAX. The absolute worst thing you could do would be to fully AJAXify your blog so that the homepage was merely an iframe-like container for all the content which is loaded in dynamically. Use AJAX wisely, to enhance the page content, not as a replacement. Or face dire consequences.
Thanks for reading, and I hope I've given you some ideas. Of course, Flickr isn't the only API out there – just Google "public API" and you're sure to find more things you could play around with.
Next week will be the final lesson in the jQuery Tutorial series as we check out the jQuery UI plugin. As ever, comments and suggestions welcome; if you have a question that others will benefit from, consider posting it to our Answers site.

I created a custom post type. Pretty cool stuff.
The issue I have is I cannot remove "other" plugin meta boxes from the edit page. Specifically, there is a checkbox that Kontera adds to the edit page, and Zemanta adds their meta-box as well.
I tried removing "everything" (according to the documentation I read) and then adding the meta boxes I want back in, but the "other" stuff remains.
Kontera is inside a div with an id of "postbox-container-1" with a class of "postbox-container". The actual Kontera div is just set up with a class of "postbox". Is there anyway to remove this?
Zemanta shows up in the same sidebar, inside a div with a class of "zemanta-wrap postbox".
I realize I could just hide the Kontera box using CSS, but Zemanta slows down the browser when it tries to load, and I would just as soon eliminate it from the editor for the custom post type completely.

Country music superstar Carrie Underwood is the latest celebrity to voice support of same-sex marriage. During an interview with The Independent, a British newspaper, America's country sweetheart voiced her opinion on the oft-controversial subject.
Thanks to a hip-shaking performance at the CMA awards, Luke Bryan caught the attention of fellow country stars Lady Antebellum. Lady A's Charles Kelley voiced his opinion that the 'Drunk on You' singer should be the next country celeb to take the stage on 'Dancing With the Stars.'
If you follow Blake Shelton on Twitter, you know that 'The Voice' coach and country star has a reputation for tweeting after he's had a few too many drinks–and he's not shy about connecting with attractive women. We've all wondered at some point if Shelton's behavior bothers his sometimes sweet, sometimes fiery country star wife, Miranda Lambert. Turns out, if her hubby's feed becomes too much to handle, Lambert just unfollows him!
If you've been hiding under a rock for the past few days, you missed out on some big news: Country-star-daughter-turned-pop-princess Miley Cyrus is engaged! 19-year-old Cyrus' longtime boyfriend, actor Liam Hemsworth, popped the question last week. On the red carpet at the CMT Music Awards (okay, actually it was purple carpet), award-winning country star Carrie Underwood gave some marriage advice to the happy couple.
John Mayer has felt the wrath of Taylor Swift's guitar and pen, and he didn't like it. The pop-singer acknowledges that 'Dear John' — an album cut from Swift's 2010 'Speak Now' album — is about him, but adds that he didn't know that he'd hurt her until the song came out.
East Texas native Miranda Lambert is one bada– broad (we mean that lovingly) that you do not want to cross. Why? Because much like the protagonist of her smash 'Gunpowder and Lead,' she carries a weapon.
Randy Travis has filed a lawsuit against his ex-wife and former manager Elizabeth Travis, alleging she went out of her way to ruin the country legend's career.
Miranda Lambert and Taylor Swift may differ in many ways, but at the core of their artistry, they are both strong, assertive females in a male-dominated industry. Although Lambert often opts for a more in-your-face attitude with her music (as opposed to Swift's softer approach), the 'Over You' singer gives credit where credit is due.
If you aren't a fan of Miranda Lambert, try reading her latest interview in Self Magazine. The bold country songstress lets loose with her interviewer, dishing about her body issues (or lack therof), her marriage to Blake Shelton and what it's like to live on the road. This one is a must-read not just for country music fans, but for anyone who has struggled with their self image in the past.
If you haven't been following the drama surrounding Eric Church's inflammatory comments in a Rolling Stone interview, allow us to fill you in. Church came down especially hard on the reality TV judges, saying "If I was concerned about my legacy, there's no f—ing way I would ever sit there ." Understandably, this stirred some negative attention from 'The Voice' coach (and Season 2 winner!) Blake Shelton and his ever-devoted wife, Lindale's own Miranda Lambert. Church has since apologized for offending his peers (though he stood by his comments), but Miranda wants to see him beg.

Stollers for a toddler and an infant
mom to Aspen Claire 8/22/10
& expecting another princess 5/1/12! -we all have a surprise baby right?:))))
SAHM loving my Big Boy born 10/2009 &
Baby Bug Due May 2012
EBF, CD, BW, CS, AP, Alt.Vax Platinum (o)(o)!
I have a Baby Jogger City Select and a Bob Duallie. I love my BOB but it is way to wide to take shopping. The city select is pricey but amazing! Go and check it out online, I love, love love this stroller. You can change seat positions and break it down to fit in smaller car. It's not a true jogger stroller however but as far as getting around town and the neighborhood it is great!
I just purchased the Joovy Caboose - really wanted the ultralight (think 5lbs lighter) - but the Caboose is on sale right now for $100. It is 9" shorter than the baby trend and lighter too.
Baby Trend: 21"W x 46.5"L x 42"H - 27lbs
Joovy: 41.50"H x 21.5"W x 37"L - 26lbs
It fits with the chicco car seat I bought on sale at Amazon for $130.
Who knows? They say the second baby is the opposite of the first. So maybe this one will loooove strollers.
We are getting the City Select! It's supposed to be my Christmas present from DH - we'll see if that actually happens. But if not, I'll just buy it myself!

"Swaziland, small but beautiful" Swaziland by tompt
Swaziland Travel Guide: 255 reviews and 682 photos
In March 2000 we were visiting South Africa and spend two days in Swaziland. We were camping and put our tent up in Hlane, a gamepark in the north of the country. There is no electricty in the park and at night and oillamp burned in the lavoratory building. Creating a very nice atmosphere.
We did camp there again in september 2002.
In 2010 we stayed two nights in chalets at Buhleni Farm in the Ezulwini Valley.
This valley is where some of the main tourist attractions of Swaziland are located. We visited a.o. the Mantenga Cultural Village and The Swazi Candle Craft Center.
