In a back-and-forth game against a familiar opponent, Mountlake Terrace came up a run short.
The Hawks rallied from a 3-0 deficit to tie the score but saw district rival Meadowdale push across the winning run in the bottom of the seventh inning to prevail 4-3 in a loser-out 3A District 1 softball tournament game May 19 at Janicki Fields in Sedro-Woolley.
"It was a really good game," Mountlake Terrace coach Kim Stewart said. "We battled back. We just made a couple of boo-boos unfortunately at the wrong time. They capitalized and they're going to state."
Meadowdale went on to defeat Sedro-Woolley 7-3 to claim the second and final berth to the state tournament. Everett beat the Cubs 14-13 in the district title game.
"We were hurting pretty good," Stewart said. "We felt like we had a team that could compete at state. We had done all the right things to go."
Mountlake Terrace opened the district tournament with a 4-1 win over district rival Lynnwood before losing 6-4 to Sedro-Woolley in the semifinals. The Hawks rebounded with a 10-7 victory over Shorecrest before Meadowdale ended their season.
Stewart returned to the dugout along with co-head coach Herb Hudson after former coach Briana Knight resigned. The position is now open.
Whoever takes over Mountlake Terrace will have two solid returning pitchers in Maddy Kristjanson and Rene Bos.
"They're two of the best defensive players I've ever coached," Stewart added.
Freshman Hannah Wilcox had what Stewart said was an incredible year at second base.
"We have a really good nucleus," Stewart said.

Some of the products on my website have an option to rent, and we'd like to be able to show the rental price underneath the buy price so it will show up something like this.

I've looked in to it, and it seems very difficult despite being something so simple.
Does anyone have a solution to this?

IMHOI the #$%$ don't like lawsuits.....threats.....intimidation of any sorts in their business dealings.
If they get nervous with all these lawsuits filed and disgruntled shareholders, IMHO they could just walk away.
This is far from a "done deal". I'd be very careful here if I still owned the stock. IMHO...
Wrong. The volume tells you the #$%$ Company has been buying all available shares, so they can take control of the vote for the buyout.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
The law firm will come in and file suit against board of directors, the committee thought they could cut a deal and run and leave us to dry, but they will be the ones paying the lawyer bills at the end. Somebody over the weekend will top the bid though and this current deal will be stepped on and thrown in the trash. Notice the statement states "to buy Astex" not "buys Astex".
There's always the possibility of strike suits from some law firms whining that the board didn't get a high enough price - if this drags out it could have a negative effect on price. Of course, it could also drive up the share price as a way of avoiding litigation. I sold half to lock in my profits as I've been in this position for many years. I'm cautiously holding the rest of my shares to see how this plays out. Best of luck to all the longs!
Sentiment: Hold

I liked the big banner because I didn't have to really look to hit it. Now, I have to look at the screen, figure out where it is, and then move my mouse.

Raging Thunder for Android
Raging Thunder for Android is a game based on tried and true arcade values. Speed, accessibility and fun, in other words, trump the limitations imposed by so called real world physics. In the world of Raging Thunder there are no such things as too narrow turns or impossible overtakes. The primary strengths of Raging Thunder, and the aspects we ourselves are most proud of, is its immersive gameplay mechanics, its responsive, precise controls and its rich, beautiful graphics. It is a game for everyone to 'pick up and play', for ten minutes or for two hours, but one that evolves as players progress. We want Raging Thunder to create an itch in players that only 'finishing that next race' can scratch. Increasing difficulty, unlockable features and a dynamic game world offers re-playability and guarantees that the game stays fresh.

Putting Our Best Foot Forward
Here at Platinum Podiatry, we're celebrating our first year of service to the elderly in nursing facilities and assisted living centers throughout Northern and Southern California.
We offer essential foot health maintenance services to seniors in 35 facilities throughout California: toenail trimming, callus removal, and the treatment and removal of ingrown toenails. In accordance with our arrangement with these facilities, the seniors receive a podiatric checkup and needed services every 60 days. We serve between 100 and 200 patients, per facility, on this schedule of regular monitoring and care.
If you're young and in excellent health, you may think of toenail trimming as a purely cosmetic service, like the salon pedicure you get every few weeks to keep your feet sandal-licious. But it's more than cosmetic for many older people. Many older people have poor circulation, and this may lead to thickening of the toenail if the area around the nail is not receiving adequate blood-flow. Also, as we age, our cells simply turn over or replace themselves more slowly. We observe these changes in the skin, for example. Reduced sloughing or shedding of skin cells is a major cause in the signs of aging of the face; it's why we lose our youthful glow (though exfoliation can help). A similar slow-down happens with the onychocytes, or cells of the toenail: as we get older, these cells may accumulate, rather than being quickly shed, and this results in a thickened, often yellowed nail.
In the examination process, our skilled team of five doctors, 10 assistants (and growing!) observes the condition of the person's feet, spotting infections, for instance. By catching a potential problem such as an ulceration or unhealed cut early, we are able to help the patient avoid pain, injury, potential loss of a toe or other amputation, and even death, particularly if the individual lives with any form of diabetes. And, feeling secure in their footing when they stand, walk…and cha-cha !…helps the patient maintain balance and prevent falling, which often is a critical issue for seniors. We recommend that elderly people not attempt to cut their own toenails, since their eyesight and fine motor skills may be reduced, and this could result in an injury.
Caring for these seniors has become a true passion for our team. Depending upon the location, we drive or fly to the facility to check on our older folks. As always, education is an important part of our patient care. We share tips for healthy feet, encouraging the patients to examine their own feet if they can, and explaining the importance of self-monitoring changes in the feet such as numbness, tingling or neuralgia (nerve pain), since these conditions may signal a larger health issue.
Strong feet for a strong foundation at every age is an idea that's central to our work. And we are so happy to report that with Platinum Podiatry, California's seniors are standing taller and stronger than ever.Written by admin-lg on October 14, 2015 @ 4:17 am

I notice there is an option with wp-super-cache to:

What would be infinitely more useful would be an option to:
Clear appropriate cached file when a post or page is updated
There's no need to purge the entire cache just because one page has been updated, but it would be very useful for that page's cache file to be purged. Couldn't you hook into edit_post or edit_page hooks and remove the cache for that item using the permalink or something?
That would be ridiculously rad. Love the plugin, thanks for your hard work!

Mammography has long been the gold standard for breast cancer detection.
Images are developed on film and doctors use a magnifying glass to search for tumors but in recent years some hospitals have started using digital mammograms.
The computer allows radiologists to manipulate the scan for a closer look inside the breast and a new study shows the digital advantages are allowing clinicians to detect breast cancer more accurately in younger women.
In women under 50 digital mammograms proved to be about 15 percent more accurate than standard scans. However, for women over 50, film performed just as well as the computer.
The reason is that researchers say younger women have denser breast tissue and digital can see through it better.
And there are other advantages.
Records can be sent electronically whenever a new doctor needs them. That has experts believing digital will become the standard for breast screening, but it could take some time.
Digital machines are very expensive and right now account for only 8 percent of all mammography equipment.

Never managed to get the slider to work. Spent days examining, reading about and then implementing. Nada. Far too complicated for 'normal' WP users.
This slider hasn't been updated in years, then lo and behold it got updated about a week ago. All I can tell is they added some obtrusive CSS code that puts borders and backgrounds on your sliders. Now I have to go through each website and override this css with my own code, using !important no less. If I remove it from the plugin's css it will just get overwritten when the plugin updates again (if ever).
Also, this is the most unintuitive slider I've ever used. You have to input the page's ID and the ordering usually has a mind of its own. It has a few decent settings but nothing amazing. It might work well if you want to display your posts/content as a featured item instead of banners. I guess I can blame the previous webdesigner for that mistake and not using a traditional banner slider like MetaSlider.

GOSHEN — The state's two U.S. senators have called on leaders from both parties to quickly get emergency money to farmers who face what they called a "grave" situation in the wake of Hurricane Irene.
In a letter, Sens. Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand asked for money from the Emergency Conservation Program and the Emergency Watershed Program.
"Without some financial help," the letter states, "hundreds of New York farms are at risk of going out of business which would have negative repercussions throughout rural New York.''
Black Dirt onion farmer Chris Pawelski, whose entire crop was wiped out because of Irene, doesn't quite know if and how this assistance will help him or his fellow farmers.
"The thing we need is direct payments for our crop losses," he said. "I'm not sure if those programs can be used for that. What I'm really hoping for and counting on is FEMA paying us direct payments for our losses."
On Monday, he and his fellow Black Dirt farmers asked Schumer to help end an exclusion that prevents FEMA from extending a lifeline to farmers afflicted by a natural disaster. Typically, that's the purview of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, but farmers say the USDA assistance isn't sufficient.

After a few hours I was asked did they do a biopsy when they did the endoscopy. I said no that actually the Dr "aborted" it because I wasn't "cleaned out" properly. There was still poop. (Ok that is all good so I thought). Then the Dr proceeded to tell me that I have a piece of metal stuck in my intestines. Then he asked do I have a clamp on or in my intestines. I told him the only clamps I have & know of are the ones on my tubes to keep me from getting pregnant. He said he seen that but this wasn't those clamps. I was totally puzzled. Then he asked did I swallow any metal..... Seriously????
Do I look like a child??? I told him I haven't swallowed any metal & the Dr said he didn't do anything that the procedure was "Aborted". Then he said that on my last X-ray (when I had a cold & they did an X-Ray to make sure I didn't have pneumonia) that it wasn't there then. This last X-ray was done on August 20, 2012. As of today it shows up. The only procedure I have had since then is the endoscopy. He didn't even seem concerned that I am in pain, can't eat without having pain, & the fact that I don't know where this metal object came from. You would think he would have admitted me to see what it was (Since he had no clue) & to have it taken out to see if it does make me better...... NOPE..... sent me home.... I have come to the conclusion to NOT EAT! Thanks LRMC..... you really show you care!!!
Dr Hauqe is the Dr who performed this procedure at this location. Also the Dr, Techs & nurses had me laying in a big pile of POOP & knew I was laying in it. Didn't say ANYTHING TO ME. & now this problem with me hurting everyday since..... I little fishy.

**Note**: The only reason why I am putting the surgery center is because this is where the procedure was done & the main kicker is THEY LEFT ME LAYING IN A LARGE PILE OF FECES. How would you like to wake up not knowing this until you stand up???? Not only is it disgusting but also unhealthy.

Nativity cat is feeling the holidays Dec 24 2015
(Photo credit: Kacper Pempel; via This Isn't Happiness)
(Photo credit: Kacper Pempel; via This Isn't Happiness)
This is James, and he goes bonkers for olives. I had grand plans to pollute Kottke.org with a Friday night cat fact post about how 'olives have similar properties to catnip, and here's the science behind those properties'. Due to a dearth of accomplished cat scientists, however, I wasn't able to find any scientific basis for why some cats respond so strongly to olives. I mean, I looked at Google AND Bing, and this was the closest I got to what I was looking for. It begs the question*, given the overwhelming popularity of cats on the Internet, why are there not more experienced cat scientists producing well-trafficked cat science blogs? Hopefully this will change soon. In the meantime, at least you got a peek at James.
*One of my goals for this week was to misuse the phrase 'begs the question'. Nailed it.
Oh, so you want flying cat pictures, do you?.
I don't want to start a holy war here, but what is the deal with you Mac fanatics? I've been sitting here at my freelance gig in front of a Mac (a 8600/300 w/64 Megs of RAM) for about 20 minutes now while it attempts to copy a 17 Meg file from one folder on the hard drive to another folder. 20 minutes. At home, on my Pentium Pro 200 running NT 4, which by all standards should be a lot slower than this Mac, the same operation would take about 2 minutes. If that.
In addition, during this file transfer, Netscape will not work. And everything else has ground to a halt. Even BBEdit Lite is straining to keep up as I type this.
I won't bore you with the laundry list of other problems that I've encountered while working on various Macs, but suffice it to say there have been many, not the least of which is I've never seen a Mac that has run faster than its Wintel counterpart, despite the Macs' faster chip architecture. My 486/66 with 8 megs of ram runs faster than this 300 mhz machine at times. From a productivity standpoint, I don't get how people can claim that the Macintosh is a superior machine.
Mac addicts, flame me if you'd like, but I'd rather hear some intelligent reasons why anyone would choose to use a Mac over other faster, cheaper, more stable systems.

Bigg Boss 7: Pair-Up Or Get Out Of The House! Kushal-Gauhar, Tanisha-Armaan...
Bigg Boss 7 inmates seem to have found a new technique to stay strong in the house. They have decided to pair-up and become couples. The existing couples are Shilpa and Apurva Agnihotri, Kushal Tandon and Gauhar Khan, Andy and Sangraam, who have been strong buddies, Pratyusha Banerjee and Kamya Punjabi and now Tanisha and Armaan to have become a couple of some sort.
The inmates are in the impression that being in the good books of as many people as possible along with having one person backing them is a good option and have slowly been pairing up with each other. The married couple Shilpa and Apurva obviously are together from the beginning. The first couple to have figured this out is Gauhar Khan and Kushal Tandon, who have out of no where become inseparable.
Andy and Sangraam have found their soul-mates of some sort in each other. They fight and patch up for no apparent reason, all the while having some sort of an understanding that the fights are of no importance for their 'brotherhood'.
Pratyusha Banerjee and Kamya Punjabi became the soul-sisters. Pratyusha, the damsel-in-distress and Kamya, the strongest (and loudest) woman in the house are pretty close to each other.
All this pairing-up might have freaked out Tanisha Mukherjee, who has found the strong guy in town, Armaan Kohli. Tanisha and Armaan must have figured it is safer to have someone with them than being a loner. They seem to have become pretty comfortable in each other's company off late.
Elli and Ratan Rajput, too though a little clueless, look out of each other at times. The only person who has not figured this out is the new-hot-supermodel Asif Azim. He is still a little dazed as to what is happening in the house.
Let's wait and watch for how long this pairing-up will help them stay afloat in Bigg Boss house.

The Fault in Our Stars

The Fault in Our Stars Mortality Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
There are a number of ways to establish someone's approximate survival expectations without actually asking. (2.9)
Hazel is, unfortunately, used to the issues of mortality. It's not unusual for her to think about survival expectations or the probability of death. But that doesn't make it any easier.
Quote #2
"I mean, I would just die—" and then stopped short, looking at me as if to say I'm sorry, as if it were a crime to mention death to the dying. (3.55)
Oh, awkward moments at the mall. We all say stuff like this, and it seems like Hazel recognizes that fact. She's not expecting people to completely change the way they think and talk just to be nice. Although wait a second… she kind of does that, doesn't she?

I think they should have mirrors in the wild, because if some of these wild animals saw themselves, they wouldn't be so cocky. Think about it -- how you look affects how you feel. Why wouldn't that be true for the wild animal kingdom? Like the panda bear -- that's a wild animal -- in his head, he's a bad-ass bear, but if he saw himself in a full-length mirror, he wouldn't be so cocky. He'd be like, 'I'm adorable.'

Portal is a first-person puzzle game. Players must solve physical challenges by opening portals to maneuver objects, and themselves, through the enigmatic Aperture Science Laboratories.
This is my Portal 2 themed texture pack. Most materials have been ripped from portal 2 and have been set up to work with Portal (2007).
This is my Portal 2 themed texture pack. Most materials have been ripped from portal 2 and have been set up to work with Portal (2007). Feedback and bug-reports appreciated.
To install place the Materials folder into your Steam/steamapps/USERNAME/portal/portal/
Should work next time you boot up the game.
Known Bugs:
-Only works with higher graphic settings [Last I checked]
I actually edited most images to look this way. Many of the textures are Modified versions of those from Portal 2.
porting source to goldsource is illegal, but source to source is illegal too?
Illegal nothing! This is totaly legal, so long as you don't put a price tage on it and call it your own.
If Portal 2 costs money, do you think it would be legal to give part of it away for free?
You can't use it without the game so it doesn't prevent the company from making money, ergo, it's not illegal.
Besides, how can you say anything on this site is legal if you have that logic?
Source to source is only legal if it's part of shared resources. Anything from HL2 can be ported to Portal and released, but not vice versa, and since Portal doesn't already have access to Portal 2's resources, this isn't legal. What I just said is abridged from part of Valve's legal terms for using their content. It's not the same wording, but the same message. However, it's not like Valve has ever really cared that much about simple things like this.
looks good, but its look like if they doesnt have bumpmaps (or normalmaps)
Yes, but if you *have* both games, it shouldn't be any problems...
But if you read the author's comments, it shouldn't be very illegal anyway :P
Some reason It does not work for me, I just get normal textures, This is the same with every texture pack I try, plz help.
go to portal and create a custom folder, then create a new folder with the name, "somemod" then drag the files in there and they should work
Every time I install the textures portal keeps changing the textures back to the default, Is there anything I can do to stop this?

Painting has opened up world for paralyzed artist
Jeff LaDow was painting outside his Hales Corners home when he noticed a hummingbird hovering nearby. He wondered why this creature seemed to be staring at him.
"It looked like I had a beak like his," LaDow concluded.
He makes his living with that beak. LaDow, 56, is a mouth painter, meaning he operates a paint brush attached to a wand he clenches between his teeth.
Many of us have trouble drawing stick figures with our hands, and LaDow creates beautifully detailed paintings in a way that makes you think anything is possible.
He is a featured artist in this year's Channel 10 Great TV Auction. The fundraiser began last week and runs through Saturday. One hundred signed and numbered prints of a LaDow creation called "Italian Village" will be available for bid.
He is a busy guy. Next month, LaDow will head to Minneapolis to present his painting of vintage motorcycles to Jay Leno in appreciation for the comedian's support of the Pacer Center for children with disabilities.
Growing up in Wind Lake, LaDow was barely more than a child himself when he broke his neck in a swimming pool diving accident in 1975 and was permanently paralyzed below the shoulders. He spent a couple months in intensive care and then two years in nursing home rehab. Today, he has just enough use of his arms to operate his electric wheelchair controls.
His art experience before the accident was limited. He was more interested in taking apart muscle cars and riding motorcycles. But he saw someone on TV who was mouth painting and decided to try it as a hobby.
"I picked up a brush and started doing it on my own. I just kept on trying. I would learn from my mistakes. That's the best way to learn," he said during an interview in the home he owns near Whitnall Park, where he often rolls for inspiration. He has a live-in caretaker and business manager, Julie McKenzie.
LaDow took an art class at MATC and later began 20 years of training through the Milwaukee Art Museum with instructor Helena Ehlke. She taught him how to copy the works of pre-20th century masters, using the same methods these artists used.
"That sensitized him to a high level of artistic quality," Ehlke told me. "Jeff is not self-centered and is interested in many things outside of himself. Jeff's art strives to create and share beauty in his environment."
LaDow was hooked. "I never dreamed it would become a profession. Now I'm a full member of the Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists and they're worldwide," he said. The association has 800 members, including just two in Wisconsin. It turns the paintings into greeting cards, calendars and such and sells them, giving some of the money in monthly support to the artists.
LaDow showed me how he paints. His caretaker positioned a canvas on a table affixed to his wheelchair, and she provided him with a palette blotched with oil paint in various colors, plus small containers of turpentine and thinning oil. She slipped the wand's mouthpiece between LaDow's teeth.
With careful concentration, LaDow dabbed the brush into the yellow and green paint and then made a perfect ginkgo leaf nestled in an autumn image. His breathing was audibly rhythmic, and his head moved up and down and side to side ever so slightly as he worked.
Straight lines are hard to draw by mouth, so he puts dots in rows and connects them, he said. To reach the top of the canvass to complete, say, the sky or treetops, he has his helper turn it over and he paints while it's upside down.
He will spend four to six hours a day painting, usually concentrating on three works at a time during any three-month period. He is attracted to nature and architecture, but less so to portraits.
The walls of his home are decorated with his works, but he also displays pieces created by a man he has come to know from India who sculpts and paints with his foot. LaDow is helping him and another young man from Jackson work toward full membership in the mouth and foot artist association.
LaDow has traveled to China, Austria, Portugal and Mexico for the group's conventions. He also has indulged his daredevil side sky diving and rafting river rapids.
Despite his profound disability, LaDow has managed to remain positive and to inspire others with his accomplishments. Even as a quadriplegic in a wheelchair, you don't have to look too hard to find others facing difficulty. "Look at the kids who lost limbs in that (Boston) bombing," he said.
He has given paint and brushes to paralyzed people he has met over the years, though not all of them have followed his lead.
"It has to come from the heart and soul," he said. "That's what I put into my paintings."

West Elm Commits to Artisanal Products
Posted on September 30, 2013 by
BROOKLYN, N.Y.-Specialty retailer West Elm said it will buy $35 million in handcrafted products through 2015, through the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Commitment to Action.
This promise will increase the retailer's spending on artisanal products by 40 percent over the next two years. West Elm has also pledged to make and source these products from businesses adhering to high social responsibility, health and safety standards, the following of local laws, best industry practices and the brand's vendor code of conduct.
Jim Brett, president of West Elm, said the retailer "has achieved 14 consecutive quarters of double-digit, comparable-brand revenue growth by listening to our customers, and our CGI Commitment to Action reflects our customers' passion for handcrafted products, as well as their growing concern for the preservation of cultural heritage and the safety of the hands behind the work."
"West Elm's CGI Commitment to Action formalizes the incredibly important work the brand, and our company, is doing to support and scale artisan business and protect the craftspeople involved in them," said Laura Alber, president and CEO of West Elm parent Williams-Sonoma.

By Rachel Jackson, THE BAYONETNovember 20, 2009
Fort Benning, Ga. (Nov. 20, 2009) -- More than 20 runners from the Warrior Transition Battalion embarked on a journey Monday to run an Olympic torch across post in a six-mile run.
The torch was obtained from the Olympic training center in Colorado Springs, Colo.
"The Olympic flame represents the endeavor for perfection and the struggle for victory," said WTB commander Lt. Col. Sean Mulcahey. "This relay run is going to represent our struggle for victory as individuals and more importantly, as a team. It's going to demonstrate that WTB Soldiers are motivated and they are struggling for victory and they will succeed."
On their journey, WTB Soldiers stopped by Faith Middle School and were greeted by the school's band playing the Star Spangled Banner and a flag ceremony. The Faith Middle School cross-country team led the runners while students cheered and clapped as the WTB Soldiers ran with the torch.
Soldiers, including Lt. Col. Mark Koloc, A Company, ran with the torch. Koloc has a shrapnel wound in his left leg from a deployment to Afghanistan.
"It was moving to carry the Olympic torch," he said. "The run was challenging, but it made me feel mentally and spiritually good. I was hurting, but there was something about it - I didn't want to walk."
Spc. Michael Dusch, of B Company, carried the torch on the last stretch of the relay. He said carrying the torch was an honor but wished the run was longer.
"I just had it in my heart that I wanted to run longer," he said.
Dusch, who is recovering from an ACL injury, a neck and back injuries after he was injured by an improvised explosive device, said what kept him going was words of encouragement from the other runners.
"Everyone had my back and told me to keep pushing myself," he said. "We were all in it together."
Staff Sgt. Nick Philoctete, B Company, didn't run in the relay but said he was inspired by it.
"It shows a lot of courage and dedication from the Soldiers," he said. "Everyone here has some kind of issue whether it is mental, physical or emotional. And you have people that have pain, but they still have the will to keep going. It takes a lot of will power to finish this relay."
The torch run was the first event of the WTB Commander's Cup. Other events of the cup include a talent show, water polo, bowling, volleyball, tug-of-war, basketball and a triathlon.

George Clooney Arrested Outside Sudanese Embassy In Washington
Originally published on Fri March 16, 2012 8:56 am
The Oscar-winning actor George Clooney was arrested this morning, after he and supporters, including congressmen stepped onto the grounds of the Sudanese embassy in Washington D.C.
"Before their arrest, the assembled group of congressmen, religious leaders and cultural icons spoke about the humanitarian crisis faced by hundreds of thousands of Sudanese who have been prevented from receiving international aid by president Bashir.
"Clooney and the group of protesters stepped onto embassy grounds after giving short speeches, at which point they were instructed that they must leave or be arrested. On the third warning, officers told the group they were under arrest, and the protestors lined up to get handcuffed and were removed to a waiting van."
Over the past few days, Clooney has been on a grand tour of the nation's capital. He testified before the Senate's Foreign Relations Committee about the humanitarian crisis on the Sudan and South Sudan border.
"Just back from an eight-day trip to the region, Clooney described a secret, six-hour trip across the border to the Nuba Mountains, with rocket attacks, death and destruction. He recalled how a 9-year-old boy had his hands blown off," the AP reported.
Clooney also attended the White House's state dinner for British Prime Minister David Cameron.
His arrest today has proven a very popular topic on twitter. Clooney is trending on two langues and the #freeclooney hashtag is one of the most popular.
Here are a few examples:
@jonconnorfilms: O, Brother Where Art Thou?.... Jail, apparently. #freeclooney
@megspptc: WOW way to go George standing up for something you truly believe in is NEVER wrong #freeclooney
@AliceMartha: Soooo if I posted bail for George he has to come and stay with me...that is the rule right...isn't it? #freeclooney

Double-standard, huh?
He did not actually agree. And they were not actually disarmed at least not in the sense of the quote from the book Hitler's Table Talk: His Private Conversations, 1941-44 (not written by Hitler, but heavily edited hearsay of what Hitler supposedly said) and especially its context. Which continues: "So lets not have a native military or a native police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for maintenance of the law and order throughout the occupied Russian territories…"
Guess what, Hitler did arm a native Police and Military in Russia(and elsewhere).

Can a newly widowed Lady Mary learn to love again on "Downton Abbey"? Will Jennifer Lopez bring back the sizzle to "American Idol"? Are the zombies ever going to back the heck off on "The Walking Dead"?
These are among the pertinent questions as television's winter season brings a blizzard of fresh programming to our TVs and laptops. In addition to returning favorites like these, viewers can look forward to a big batch of brand-new offerings.
The freshman roster includes the highly anticipated pairing of Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson in HBO's dark crime series "True Detective" and the dramatic TV series debut of Greg Kinnear in Fox's legal saga, "Rake."
And while there will be the usual emphasis on cops and lawyers, the offerings also include mangy pirates ("Black Sails" on Starz), a female werewolf ("Bitten" on Syfy), reanimated corpses ("Resurrection" on ABC) and a dude with a supercomputer microchip implanted in his brain ("Intelligence" on CBS).
In addition, San Francisco will get some prime-time attention as MTV's long-running reality series, "The Real World," makes its second stop in the city by the Bay, and HBO launches "Looking," a comedy about three gay roommates searching for love and happiness.
Of course, we'll also need to carve out some time for a number of marquee events, including the Golden Globes (Jan. 12, NBC), Grammys (Jan. 26, CBS), Super Bowl (Feb. 2, Fox) and the Olympics (Feb. 6-23, NBC).
Here are the notable highlights of TV's winter season, starting with new dramas, comedies and reality shows. The debut dates for returning series can be found in the inset box.
Dramatic flair
"Intelligence" – Josh Holloway ("Lost") plays a high-tech intelligence operative enhanced with a supercomputer microchip in his brain. (9 p.m. Tuesday, CBS; moves to regular time slot 10 p.m. Jan. 13).

"Bitten" – A supernatural thriller about a female werewolf (Laura Vandervoort) who has abandoned her pack and taken refuge in a new city. (10 p.m. Jan. 13, Syfy).
"Rake" – Think "House" as a legal series. Kinnear plays a brilliant but self-destructive defense attorney. (9 p.m. Jan. 23, Fox).
"Black Sails" – Producer Michael Bay takes to the high seas for an adventure series set in the golden age of piracy. (9 p.m. Jan. 25, Starz).

Atletico must overcome a 2-0 first-leg defeat if they are to lift South America's top club trophy for the first time and deny their Paraguayan opponents their fourth.
Bernard, who missed the first leg in Asuncion last week through suspension, is anxious to get on with the decider at the Mineirao, Belo Horizonte's newly-refurbished World Cup stadium.
"I always say I want the anxiety to last, as if it were the last match of my career... I'm going to give my maximum, what I can and can't (give). I have a great opportunity," Bernard told a news conference on Monday.
The 20-year-old, a Confederations Cup winner with Brazil last month, believes feelings of anxiety can be positive, saying: "I feel cold in my stomach, not only on account of the final but in all matches I feel anxiety.
"I saw Rogerio Ceni saying that when you stop feeling that cold in your stomach you've got to retire," he said referring to Sao Paulo's 40-year-old goalkeeper, a double Libertadores Cup winner.
Brazilian media said Atletico badly missed Bernard, who has been linked with a possible move to England's Arsenal, in Asuncion as they failed to create danger from the wings.
Atletico coach Cuca had his players practising penalties during Monday's training.
The Brazilian side reached the final with a shootout victory over Newell's Old Boys of Argentina and a last-gasp penalty save by Victor got them through their quarter-final against Tijuana.
However, there is the potential for a high-scoring match with Olimpia very dangerous on the break as they proved again in their first-leg win.
Atletico and Olimpia are the highest-scoring teams in the competition. Both scored 16 goals in six group-stage matches and the Brazilians have taken their tally to 27 in the knockout rounds, against 25 by the Paraguayans.
The home side will be missing both first-choice fullbacks through suspension. Richarlyson was sent off in Asuncion and Marcos Rocha is out through accumulation of yellow cards.
Junior Cesar is expected to replace Richarlyson while Cuca fielded usual forward Luan as a wing back during Monday's practice.
Teams (probable):
Atletico Mineiro: Victor; Michel (or Luan), Leonardo Silva, Rever, Junior Cesar; Pierre, Josue, Bernard, Ronaldinho; Diego Tardelli, Jo
Olimpia: Martin Silva; Julio Manzur, Herminio Miranda, Salustiano Candia; Alejandro Silva, Wilson Pittoni, Eduardo Aranda, Matias Gimenez, Nelson Benitez; Juan Manuel Salgueiro, Fredy Bareiro

Great product

So far this appears to be a great product, according to my husband. He was taking this in conjunction with another brand, but his doctor told him to to start taking only the Gaia.
worth a try

My husband has slightly elevated counts. We're hoping to keep them at bay. He's not a big pill taker but will take these capsules. Reviews were positive so I'm expecting good from them in the long run.

Learn to sell your art, so you don't have to sell your soul
And I use "art" very loosely here when I mean the creative products of your head and your hands and the tools you use to extend the reach of both. Whether writers, filmmakers, musicians, webdesigners, potters, poets, dancers, landscapers, crafters, carpenters, architects, hatters; whatever the avenue for the creative imperative to realise itself, these endeavours are most often shunted aside to our secret life, our hobby. Because creatives don't make money. Or not enough to make a steady living. They do it for the love. Or until they get a real job.
Or maybe that's just a convenient hangover myth from the Industrial Age that we've continued to believe even as the world changes around us?
What if doing good business, a roaring trade no less, isn't about aptitude or "something you're just born with" but something learnable. A language. A game with a particular set of rules that we just need to be shown so we can get in and play along, rather than feeling unfairly relegated to sideline spectator?
This is the ongoing premise of a 4 year long wager that UCT's Graduate School of Business Exec.Ed unit director Elaine Rumboll chose to bet on. She believed that artists with the right tools in their hands COULD excel in business. Business Acumen for Artists is about to launch into its 4th year because of that belief.
Learning the rules of the game
The first business school programme of its kind for artists, it's always oversubscribed because it answers a very pressing need. More of us want to escape the confines of corporate soulsuck, but watched friends step out into the freedom of freelancing or creative entrepreneurship and fall down a chasm, eventually claw their way back to the numbing safety of a grey job, worse off than when they left. The unexpected truth of their fall, is that despite having worked for a big business, they may know nothing about running their own.
For artists ..and recently-escaped company execs too
This holds true not just for creatives. Many are they who come swaggering into a startup with their big swinging CVs and crashland their jetsized egos on the undulating ground of entrepreurship. Business in the buffered realms of a big company and running your own, share enough genetic markers on paper to be alike; but in the realworld, it's like you and a sightless sea-urchin.
To my utter despair I've also watched as people of genius hand the business-end over to experts (read: recently escaped swaggering execs) so that they don't have to be muddied by marketing, sales, admin and money. Which seems perfectly logical, but almost always ends in tears. We need to be involved in our enterprise on all levels (or at least understand how to check the reports) if it's to be a success. It's essential to bring in specialists to do things like our taxes, but to hand over the engine to someone else to remote control isn't amongst the finest strategic move ascribed in biographies of the greats. But despite eons of creative geniuses handing down their stories, we still fall into the same sticky tarpit generation after generation.
Business can be terrifying, disheartening, overwhelming as a solo venture. But to do it with the fundamentals in place when it all starts shaking, the right people on speed-dial and having built-in back-up plans are all best practises that winning creative entrepreneurs have learned.
Who's this program a best-fit for?
Business Acumen for Artists goes a long way to getting those elementals in place for:
- those planning an escape
- those bravely out there plying their creative trade but frustrated that they're not doing as well as they should.
- ..and also as a refresher masterclass for those already successful artists wanting to get a better idea of what opportunities they could be grabbing to strengthen their marketing [Dave Duarte will be leading 2 sessions on marketing with todays new tools! if nothing else, this is makes it worth it] or stretch into a global market [should you go PayPal? use an agent?].
The Essential Details:
- It's R 4995 for the 13 week programme, including personal mentorship (priceless)
- You also need to be geographically right for this one: you need to be in Cape Town from the 30th Aug – 29th Nov 2010 (Monday eves from 6pm til 9pm – built in for those still with dayjob).
- It's held at UCT Graduate School of Business (right by the V&A Waterfront) with plenty of safe parking
- The group can only work if the numbers are kept tight [which means that you will be held accountable for your development and working through your OWN business outcome to share at the final wrap celebration]. It's for the quick and decisive. If you KNOW you need it, grab the opportunity.
If this sounds just right for you, or someone you know who's a perfect match (and you're in South Africa) text ART & your email address to 31497 or book online: www.gsb.uct.ac.za/artists. If you prefer human contact give Mario a buzz on 021 406.1268 or mail him: firstname.lastname@example.com to find out more or grab your place on the journey.

Thanks for the amazing heads up on this, Max. Personally I have found that in all my years on programme directing this, that it has been an extrraordinary journey for those wanting to up their game and understand the language of business. As far as I know it is the only programme of its kind being run at a business school internationally and certainly from the results I have seen, extraordinarily worthwhile.
Hi Max, this is a very good initiative, and should ideally be taught already at tertiary level while we were all learning our art/craft. My personal experience has been similar to most out there, jump in with two feet at the same time only to find it's quicksand and not a lovely Mediterranean sea. :-) As 'tradesmen' we are well equipped, but we need the managerial and entrepreneurial side of business to be successful. (Read book: " the e-myth")
Personally I joined a business coach up here in Jo'burg and that has also helped a lot, it keeps me mindful that I'm not alone in this and inspires me every 14 days because I meet with other SMME owners.
Maybe one day if the course comes to gauteng, I could join that too.
