The Oregon Ducks' 2013 schedule received some added spice with the addition of a road game at Virginia out of the ACC on Sept. 7, according to an Oregon source.
The Daily Press reported the agreement earlier today. Oregon had been scheduled to play at Nevada on that date.
The agreement includes Virginia playing at Oregon in 2016, according to a UO source.
The Sept. 7 date became available for Virginia after Penn State backed out of a game in order to play South Florida instead, according to the Daily Press.
The addition of a road game at a BCS team adds a little pop to UO's schedule, which includes a home game against Nicholls State and is void of a matchup with USC.
Virginia went 4-8 last season after going 8-5 the year before and losing to Auburn, 43-24, in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl.

Preseason Training Underway for GW Men's Soccer
Colonials Return to Pitch Under Third-Year Head Coach Craig Jones
Aug. 13, 2014
Facebook Photo Album
WASHINGTON - The George Washington men's soccer team kicked off its 2014 campaign with its first practice on Wednesday morning at the GW Soccer Field on the Mount Vernon Campus.
With the sun shining and temperatures a bit cooler than a typical August day in D.C., the Colonials returned to the pitch for their third season under Head Coach Craig Jones, working on possession activities and splitting up into units by position before ending the session with a full-squad scrimmage.
"It was good to see the guys back on the field," said Coach Jones. "I thought the guys looked sharp, so I'm very, very happy and I'm looking forward to the next one."
GW returns 21 letterwinners and seven starters from last season's squad while welcoming seven newcomers to the roster.
The Colonials will play three exhibition games in August, beginning on Saturday at 5 p.m. at Lehigh. GW will also visit nearby Catholic on Tuesday, Aug. 19 at 4 p.m. before concluding the preseason schedule at home against James Madison on Saturday, Aug. 23 at 4 p.m.
The Colonials open the regular season on Friday, Aug. 29, at American in the annual Kuykenstrong D.C. College Cup.

In just four years since its first casino opened, Pennsylvania has emerged as a juggernaut on the national gaming landscape, generating nearly $2.5 billion in gaming revenue last year.
On Thursday, figures released by the Gaming Control Board ranked the three Philadelphia-area casinos first, second, and fifth among the state's 10 gambling halls in table-games revenue last month.
So it makes some sense that the annual Pennsylvania Gaming Congress - a two-day event to discuss the state's burgeoning industry - will take place in Philadelphia next week for the first time.
The seventh annual gathering will start Monday at the Loews Philadelphia Hotel at 1200 Market St.

Time has all but run out for the Senate to take a modest and reasonable step to restore sanity to out-of-control campaign spending.
Although a majority of senators favor the DISCLOSE Act, Republican lawmakers are blocking a vote. The measure, which passed the House last summer, proposes a basic requirement that people who donate hefty sums for election ads identify themselves.
What's wrong with that?
In this year's midterm elections, at least $125 million was donated secretly to defeat or support various candidates. It was the first time in nearly 40 years that such large amounts of secret money influenced an election, for which the blame goes to the Supreme Court's tragically misguided ruling in the "Citizens United" case.

Not since Elvis' "thank yuh very much," has gratitude been expressed with more style. But "happythankyoumoreplease" comes close.
That's the title of a new movie from Josh Radnor. The young actor best known for playing Ted Mosby for five years on TV's hit "How I Met Your Mother" is making his debut in the new roles of writer-director and star of this quirky romantic big-screen comedy.
Having to show such a personal labor of love to an audience, "there's a potential for great humiliation," he acknowledged during a recent phone interview.

In fact, the verdict has gone the other way. The wry but tender look at various sorts of love in modern Manhattan won the Audience Award at this year's Sundance Film Festival. It will screen in prime time - 8 p.m. Saturday, June 19 in the Celestial Cinema - at this year's Maui Film Festival, which returns Wednesday through June 20 to Wailea and the Maui Arts & Cultural Center.
Like its title, everything about "happythank- youmoreplease" feels like coloring outside the lines. Along with its young, hip, slightly offbeat characters, the New York setting is like a member of the cast.
If you're thinking Woody Allen, only younger, warmer, more attractive and without the whining, you're on the right track.

*"happythank- youmoreplease" screens at 8 p.m. Saturday, June 19, at the Celestial Cinema.

Doing the screenplay, "I taught myself to write," said the affable 35-year-old Radnor on the phone. He was calling from Spain, where he said he was "hoofing around" after doing some theater recently in New York.
Everything about his film was an evolutionary process. "I had written a screenplay before, but I actually wanted to make this one, and not have it be a writing exercise," he explained.
Screenwriting was all about rewriting, discovered the stage actor, who had made his Broadway debut in 2002 in a stage version of "The Graduate" with Kathleen Turner and Alicia Silverstone.
He started writing the script with three separate ideas: a guy who's late for a meeting who winds up with a kid a friend with a condition called alopecia universalis, that makes her unable to grow hair "and I wanted it to end with a song."
How he tied those threads together is what gives the quirky comedy its charm, its wit and its heart.
Being theatrically trained - he won the Paul Newman Award when attending Newman's alma mater, Kenyon College - Radnor had to temper his tendency to verbalize everything.
"I taught myself to be more cinematic," he said. It entailed finding ways of showing, not telling. In the course of working on the script, he also realized, "I didn't know what the movie was about."
Eventually he found, "It's about gratitude, about making changes, about saying yes.
"It's almost like your unconscious is making a lot of connections," he says, likening it to "falling in love with someone, and only later do you realize who you've fallen in love with."
The project gained some more star power when Malin Ackerman joined the cast. She'll also be in attendance at the festival.
The Swedish beauty and rock-band singer is best known for her roles in films including "Watchmen," "The Heartbreak Kid" and "Couples Retreat." She makes perennial appearances on those 100-sexiest lists. That's a far cry from the role of Annie, whose baldness and appearance are more of a challenge than an asset, at least in her own mind.
"I didn't know Malin before, but she loved the script," said Radnor. "She very aggressively pursued it. She said she'd shave her eyebrows."
He credits her along with the other cast members in their readings with fleshing out his story - and with helping him learn to direct.
"I have this pattern. I obsessively freak out before a thing happens. I just want to go home to my parents' house and cry. But when it finally happens, it's totally fine.
"When we started, I had bitten off so much, I had to rise to the occasion. If I didn't show up - fully - at work, we were in trouble.
"Personally, I'm the opposite of a tyrant, but I got everyone on the same page. I'm able to communicate with actors, and was able to translate it to the production designer and crew."
Radnor says he's working on a new script.
"I'm teaching myself to write all over again."
Since heading for Europe, he has also gained new appreciation for "How I Met Your Mother."
"It's such a wonderful thing to be part of that cast and show. I didn't realize how much impact it has," he said.
At this milepost in his career, he ventures, "I came from the theater. I didn't know I would spend so long on series TV. Some people are quite content to do one thing some people get a little restless.
"I'm in the latter camp."

Date & Venue: 12–14 August 2005, University of Turku, Finland
Call for papers dead line: 31, December 2004
We are pleased to announce a call for individual papers for the VIII Nordic Women & Gender History Conference. The first Nordic Women's and Gender History Conference was held in 1983 and subsequent conferences have been organized every third year. The conference has an established role as the main forum for researchers working in the field of women's and gender history in the Nordic countries.
The theme for the VIII conference "Gender and Knowledge - Gendered Knowledge" addresses questions of gender and knowledge in the context of history-writing from various perspectives. Special attention will be directed at the relationship between feminism, theory and the conception of history on one hand, and at questions of colonialism on the other.
The three-day conference will consist of lectures by keynote speakers and thematic workshops, in which individual papers will be discussed. The theme of "Gender and Knowledge" will also be discussed in three main panel discussions:
The conference invites proposals for individual papers addressing theoretical reflections and discussions on all aspects of gender, history-writing and knowledge. The conference also welcomes papers linked to empirical questions and ongoing research projects. The proposals should either fall within one of the conference theme sessions or address the general conference theme "Gender and Knowledge" from other aspects:
Both types of proposals must be submitted in the form of an abstract not exceeding 500 words, written in any of the Nordic languages or in English. Proposals can be registered at our web page (web address given below) [proposal form] on the 31st of December 2004 at latest.

Yup, it's that time of year again. The Lock Up stage at Reading and Leeds Festivals has just been announced, and you can see the line-up for both days below...

Billy Talent
Bouncing Souls
Leftover Crack
The Aggrolites
Streetlight Manifesto
Fake Problems
Riverboat Gamblers
The Flatliners
The Ghost Of A Thousand
The Plight

Rise Against
The Bronx
Mad Caddies
Rival Schools
Set Your Goals
Municipal Waste
A Wilhelm Scream
Chuck Ragan
Polar Bear Club
The Computers
So what do you think? The Rise Against day looks awesome for a fair few reasons. Firstly, it means A WILHELM SCREAM ARE COMING BACK TO THE UK! And they're possibly the best live band I've ever seen in my entire whole entire entire entire life. Check out '5 To 9' from their last album 'Career Suicide'...
The chances of RA using their headline heroes slot to play a greatest hits set (ie all of the first two albums and about three off the third) aren't exactly high, you know they'll drop this mid-set and make everyone go nuts.
I think there's something universal to punk rock fans of a certain age: as soon as the first chords of the below tune ring out it's time to raise a finger to the sky, grab your nearest and dearest and have a bit of a shout. Isn't shouting vaguely in tune brilliant?
And Thursday are coming off the back of 'Common Existence' flying. I'd bet my left nut, though, that they'll play about two or three off the new album and just crank out hit after hit after hit.
The Bronx, on the other hand, just shred.
And Chuck Ragan! Awesome. I saw him in New York with Ben from Lucero, Tim from Avail and Frank Turner and he was just brilliant, a grizzled folk-punk troubadour with a voice that could kill a horse. This is him with his old band Hot Water Music making lots of sunburnt Floridians sing a lot.
Municipal Waste, on the other hand, might cause a full-blown riot when they unleash their ferocious riff-laden thrashfest. A riot of GOOD MUSIC. I'd love to see The fucking Twang compete with this:
Add a touch of the classic Snuff and a real blast-from-the-past from the Mad Caddies and it looks like that'll be a superb day. The only real joker on the RA day is Set Your Goals - a band I've never loved but one which a lot of my friends seem to adore. So c'mon, am I wrong or are they?
What do you guys think? Stoked on Reading and Leeds for some punk rock fury or just fed up with the lack of UK bands? The Computers are the only new homegrown band to get the nod, so who would you have liked to have seen on the bill? A little birdie tells me there might just be another UK punk band playing on a much, much, much bigger stage, though...

Ben Howland has been the head coach of UCLA since 2003, and while we all admire his longevity and accomplishments at such a prestigious basketball institution for almost a decade, it may be time for a change.
We all remember a few of Howland's great UCLA teams (2007-08 comes to mind) that featured recognizable NBA stars, such as the likes of Kevin Love and Russell Westbrook. However, in the last three seasons, Howland has accumulated a 56-43 record.

The other day I was thinking about how rewarding it has been working on this book. Then Tom at Signature Books interruped my daydreaming when he called to ask if I would put my thoughts about the project onto paper. To be honest, the first thought I had was that I was elated to be done! That may be something only someone who has done research like this can understand, but suffice it to say that since this is the last of three volumes in a series—and the end of a long and grueling endeavor— I'm happy to be moving on to something new. On the other hand, I felt a deep connection to the temple all the while and will miss researching in an area I haven't entirely satisfied my curiosity about.
Because the research that Gary Bergera and I did (Gary was coeditor of the first two volumes) was into extant primary documentation, it has been particularly interesting to see what official sources have said about the temple—how general authorities themselves have interpreted the temple's meaning. These are not secondary sources— not commentaries or exposés. These are the internally generated documents that discuss policies and give interpretations, where even the difference between the concerns of the general membership versus the sometimes different concerns on the part of general authorities is interesting.
In one sense, I found the third volume to be the most meaningful because it covers the changes in ceremonies and policies that occurred during my own lifetime. By the way, Gary Bergera let me go it alone with this volume because he was in the middle of another project. No, there wasn't a falling out between us. In fact, he continued to help enormously with research suggestions and in offering encouragement and editorial ideas.
Probably these volumes will be used by scholars for years to come because they fill a vacuum in the historical record, the result of some queasiness on the part of historians to venture into an area of sensitivity. Of course, there will be people who are uncomfortable with this book because they're not sure where to draw the line about what can be said publicly about the temple. Hopefully this book will be acceptable to everyone and will reach not only scholars but general readers whose temple experience might be enriched by knowing more about the history and meaning of the ceremonies.
I should probably mention something about where I decided to draw the line on what to include and what to leave out of this volume, which I did in consultation with the editor and others at Signature Books. Church members are asked not to talk outside the temple about the signs, tokens, and penalties that were historically associated with the ceremonies. Taking my cue from general authorities who have spoken about these things in public, though without specifics, I felt it was appropriate to acknowledge them as part of the endowment ceremony but not to elaborate on them. That being the case, I ended up cutting about fifteen words from the documents—not much from a book that is nearly 600 pages long. It turns out that the portions of the ceremony people are asked not to talk about don't usually show up in the documents.
Signature asked me to tell more generally about my passion for Mormon history. It began in 1982 when I read B. H. Roberts's multivolume Comprehensive History of the Church. That endeavor soon brought me in touch with the LDS scholarly community, which I found to be a fascinating subculture and initially somewhat intimidating. The contributions by scholars in various disciplines were so vast that I could not read enough. However, over time, especially after my 1994 move from Longview, Washington, to Salt Lake City, I became involved in producing my own small contributions to LDS history. This happened entirely by accident at first. When I took a class at the University of Utah taught by Davis Bitton, as a class assignment I researched the history of the quarterly journal Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought, submitting to the professor a 50-page paper on the topic. Gary Bergera was the managing editor of the journal at the time, and after reading a copy of my paper he asked me to expand it for publication. Originally envisioned as one article, over time it grew into four lengthy installments published between 1999 and 2008, with two more installments still in the works.
Feeling confident in the wake of that experiment, I decided to begin another project around 1990: a biography of LDS apostle and historian Willard Richards. In the summer of 1995, I entered LDS archives to begin research on that project, and I have been working on it in my spare time ever since. I seem to have trouble focusing on one project at a time because the Dialogue history, three volumes on temple worship, a completed manuscript on the School of the Prophets (as yet unpublished), and a book on Emmett Till (mentioned below) have kept me from completing the Richards volume, which I am nevertheless determined to finish. I retain the passion and commitment to see it through, and all I need is time. Even so, I suppose there is an advantage to being able to think through the issues over the space of years and not rushing to conclusions about what the evidence means.
That could also be said about a project that captured my heart in 1994 when I was a history student at the university. One day I checked out of the library the PBS series, Eyes on the Prize, released in 1987 about the Civil Rights Movement. The first episode had a fifteen minute segment on the murder of a fourteen-year-old African American youth, Emmett Till, who was visiting the South from Chicago in August 1955. While in the Mississippi Delta, he spoke flirtatiously to a white woman, and three days later her husband and half-brother kidnapped him from his uncle's home and brutally murdered him. When his body was found floating in the Tallahatchie River, it was beyond recognition. His mother insisted on an open-casket funeral so everyone could see the ugly effects of racism. A photo of his battered face made the murder an international story, as did the acquittal of his accused killers a few weeks later. In 1996 I began what became a six-year friendship with Till's mother (ending only with her death in January 2003) and in 2004 started a website (emmetttillmurder.com) to aid teachers and others interested in the case. I also began my own research into the subject and became intent on writing an accurate and comprehensive narrative of the story. My research took me to Mississippi and Chicago ten times. I have also been asked to speak on the topic in California, Missouri, Texas, and the Washington, D.C., area. Now I am on track to finish a book on Till in mid-2011, then it's back to Willard Richards!
My three children, Amanda, Tyler, and Jordan, have lived with these projects for years and now seem to know them as well as I do. All of these undertakings—the history of Dialogue, the documentary history of LDS temples, the School of the Prophets, Willard Richards, and Emmett Till—will hopefully be the beginning of a lifetime of research and writing, both on Mormonism and American social history. Little did I realize in 1982, during my study of B. H. Roberts's monumental work, that my own passions, up to that point hidden deep inside of me, were about to be unleashed. I'm looking forward to conversations with scholars and general readers about the temple in the near future and, for the long term, the journey of further discovery that lies ahead.

Sit Start questions:
Freeman vs Hasselbeck? This is a question I'll probably be asking all year. I've tried offering up a trade but no one is biting. On the wire are the likes of Gabbert, Painter, Dalton and Grossman.
Gronkowski vs Finley? Both underperformed last week but both are beasts at their positions. Ceiling is high for both but which has a better matchup?
Iä! Iä! Bye weeks fhtagn!

About me, electronics and brewing beerNavigation
UberFridge is a homebrew fermentation temperature controller that I have built from my old fridge. It runs on an Arduino Nano and an Asus WL520GU router. It can control the temperature of a fermenting beer with 0.1 °C accuracy. Temperature graphs and settings can be viewed in a web interface over WiFi.Read More
ShiftPWM is a software PWM library that I wrote for Arduino. It uses the SPI to drive shift registers in the most efficient way possible. This makes it possible to control 768 LED's at 32 brightness levels for a fraction of the price of dedicated led drivers. You can have it up and running in 15 minutes.Read More
But in my free time, I just really enjoy brewing beer :)

The shooting at LAX prompted a lockdown of one of the world's busiest and biggest airports, creating a ripple effect for travelers at airports all across the country. Nearly 750 flights were affected, some headed towards LA in morning, diverted. Two Virgin America flights en route to LAX were instructed to land at Palm Springs International Airport. One was flying from Chicago, the other from Newark/New Jersey. Levi Holloway was on the flight Chicago. He sat on the terminal floor with his girlfriend while waiting for friends to pick them up. The two were flying to Los Angeles to attend a wedding in Temecula. Those plans quickly changed when news of the shooting reached the plane. "We just started watching the live feed of what was going on," said Holloway. "Within a few minutes, the pilot came on and said that they're going to slow down you know and wait for instructions."
Jason Wexler was on the flight from Newark with others who found transportation out of the desert. "The airline chartered a bus, a few different busses to go back to LA," said Wexler.
Wexler chose to wait for his girlfriend to drive to Palm Springs to pick him up and spend a weekend in the desert. All the while, he thought about the timing of his flight. "Pretty scary," said Wexler. "I guess if I had been there like a few hours later, I think they were in terminal of Virgin America."
Terminal 3 at LAX is home to Virgin and a few other domestic airlines. Holloway and Wexler finally left PSP and continued with their trips, empathizing with a hectic day for air travelers everywhere. "When it happens in a place that thousands of people commute everyday," said Holloway. "Obviously, it affects people all over the world."

Artisans of Leisure's new luxury Holland tours feature the best of Amsterdam and beyond
New York, NY, August 7, 2013 – New York-based luxury tour operator Artisans of Leisure has just launched an exclusive new series of private tours in Holland with an emphasis on Amsterdam.
The tours feature the very best of Amsterdam's art, gardens, canals, food, neighborhoods and Jewish history, as well as private excursions to the most interesting destinations in the region, such as Delft. The tours include daily touring with expert private guides and drivers, accommodation at the finest luxury hotels, and activities customized to the interests of the travelers.
"Right now is an incredibly exciting time to visit Amsterdam. In many ways, the city is experiencing a new cultural Golden Age while also enthusiastically celebrating its past," says Ashley Isaacs Ganz, founder and CEO of Artisans of Leisure. "Seeing the newly renovated Rijksmuseum is reason enough to visit Amsterdam now, whether for the first time or as a repeat visit. The museum's renowned art collection and stunning, updated interiors epitomize how the city combines the best of the old and new, tradition and innovation."
What else does Ashley recommend? Here are her top 10 experiences in Amsterdam and the surrounding region, all of which can be incorporated into Artisans of Leisure's new private Holland tours:
- A private boat ride through Amsterdam's most picturesque canals.
- Enjoying an Indonesian rijsttafel (rice table) dinner of many different small dishes. Artisans of Leisure makes advance dining reservations at Amsterdam's top restaurants.
- Art, art and more art. Amsterdam is one of the best art destinations in the world, with renowned collections of work by Old Masters, Vincent van Gogh and leading contemporary artists. Artisans of Leisure arranges tours of the city's best museums, Golden Age architecture and other art sites with deeply knowledgeable experts.
- Touring focused on Jewish history. In addition to the renowned Anne Frank House, Amsterdam has many other important sites related to Jewish history—such as the Dutch Resistance Museum and still-in-use Portuguese Synagogue—making the city a fascinating destination for Jewish touring.
- A private excursion to the early morning flower market in Aalsmeer. It's fascinating to watch the movement on the market floor, where flowers of every color and variety are prepared for shipping all over the world.
- Strolling through the riverside Zaanse Schans district. In addition to the open-air museum, which features traditional Dutch architecture and culture, Artisans of Leisure's tours include off-the-beaten-path touring in nearby residential districts filled with charming historic buildings and landmarked homes.
- An excursion to Delft for a private appointment and behind-the-scenes tour of Koninklijke Porceleyne Fles (Royal Delft), the city's only remaining porcelain factory from the 17th century. Artisans of Leisure arranges private tours and painting workshops at the factory, which is also a great place to shop for exquisite blue-and-white pottery. Lunch or afternoon tea at the factory is another highlight of the visit.
- A guided walking tour focusing on Amsterdam's private manor homes, hidden gardens and squares.
- A private tasting of jenever (the grandfather of gin and the Dutch national drink) at one of the city's oldest distilleries. Or, a private tasting of Dutch cheese with a local food expert.
- A private tour of world-class contemporary architecture in and around Amsterdam. The Dutch are renowned for design, and even the most industrial areas and buildings are surprisingly attractive.
Artisans of Leisure arranges private, customized luxury tours in more than 50 countries worldwide. For more information, visit www.artisansofleisure.com or call (800) 214-8144.

"It's been a really bonding experience," Rossdale tells PEOPLE of taking his son, 3, on the first leg of his U.S. tour. "He likes hanging out. He's so natural, so easy."
Rossdale, who is on the road until June 7 in support of his album Wanderlust, has found a happy balance between his home and work lives. "I love playing shows. It makes for a dynamic life," says the British rocker, 43. "If Bob Marley could have a wicked home life and 14 children and then go out and play, why can't I?"
As for how to handle parenting on the road, Rossdale adds: "For anyone who has kids, you bring them along in your life and they adapt to where you're at. You keep them fed and rested and pay lots of attention to them and they're fine."
Life on TourIn between interviews and radio station visits during the day, Rossdale and Kingston hit kid-friendly spots along their tour route, like the Seattle Aquarium or the Maine Discovery Museum in Bangor, Maine. "Sometimes we'll go to museums of modern art so he can see a big splash of color on the walls," says Rossdale.
They also make up games together. "I found a way to kill some time in New York by asking him to look out the window and tell me every time he saw a yellow taxi," says Dad with a chuckle. "He was so into it. We had a really good time."
The guys also bond – and clash – over movie time on the bus. "He likes to watch the same thing over and over. For King, basically it's The Cat in the Hat, Over the Hedge and Cars," says Rossdale. "We went through The Polar Express. I could have been in that film, I know it by heart!"
Adds the doting dad: "I've got loads of surf videos. Now he uses the phrase 'that's boring.' He'll turn it off – he knows how to operate the DVD player."
A Family AffairKingston hit the road with his dad in April and early May before joining mom Gwen Stefani, 39, and baby brother Zuma, 9 months, on No Doubt's summer tour a few weeks ago.
Despite their seemingly unconventional lifestyle, touring suits Rossdale's family. "We keep [Kingston] on West Coast time when we're on the East Coast. He normally goes to bed at 8. It's all about his comfort and everything else is second," says Rossdale, adding that his son, who wears protective headphones, likes to rock out on the drums during sound checks and often imitates Dad on air guitar as he watches a performance from the back of a venue.
As for trading touring tips and tricks with his wife? "We're both too exhausted to discuss it," says Rossdale with a laugh. "We're both commandos. You just find a way like every other parent. There's nothing unique about that."
Rossdale says his eldest son is lucky because he can accompany his parents on the job. "He sees that it's a lot of effort and a lot of work too. My own father was working all the time, from 8 in the morning until 8 in the night, five, six days a week," he says. "Kingston sees that if you want to get something done, you have to work."
Whether Kingston will follow in his parents' famous footsteps remains to be seen. "We'd support anything he wants to do. It's just such a wide world. Maybe he'll want to be an architect and build buildings. That," says Rossdale, "would be cool."
Mia Silbaugh
Catch Rossdale on his remaining U.S. tour dates:
May 28, Voodoo Lounge, N. Kansas City, Mo.
May 29, Whiskey Roadhouse at Horseshoe Casino, Council Bluffs, Iowa
May 31, Gothic Theatre, Denver
June 2, The Filmore, San Francisco
June 4, House of Blues, San Diego
June 5, Hard Rock, Las Vegas
June 6, El Rey Theatre, Los Angeles
June 7, House of Blues, Anaheim, Calif.
Happy birthday, Kingston! Check out the Celebrity Baby Blog's Kingston Rossdale: Rockin' at 3! gallery.

WASHINGTON - Consumer prices shot up in June by the largest amount in 11 months, reflecting the biggest jump in gasoline prices in nearly five years.
The Commerce Department said Wednesday that inflation at the consumer level rose by 0.7 percent last month, slightly higher than the 0.6 percent increase that economists were expecting. It was the biggest one-month gain since a 0.7 percent increase last July.
The big jump was seen as a temporary blip, however. Inflation is not expected to be a problem any time soon given a severe recession which is keeping a lid on wage pressures.
Underscoring the low threat of accelerating inflation, prices in June compared to a year ago were actually down by 1.4 percent, the biggest year-over-year decline in nearly six decades.
Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, posted a moderate 0.2 percent rise in June, slightly higher than the 0.1 percent rise that economists had expected.
The absence of an inflation threat has allowed the Federal Reserve to drive a key interest rate to a record low in an effort to fight a severe recession which is already the longest since World War II. The central bank pushed its target for the federal funds rate to near zero in December and it is expected to remain there until the nation's unemployment rate, currently at a 26-year high of 9.5 percent, stops rising.
The 0.7 percent jump in the Consumer Price Index in June followed three months of moderation including a small 0.1 percent rise in May.
The upward surge was driven by a 7.4 percent rise in energy prices, reflecting a 17.3 percent increase in gasoline prices, the biggest one-month jump in gas prices since a 20.9 percent spurt in September 2005 after Hurricane Katrina had shut Gulf Coast refineries.
Analysts are looking for gasoline and other energy costs to retreat in coming months.
Already, gasoline pump prices are down by about a dime since the start of July.Food costs edged up a small 0.1 percent in June, held back by a big drop in the cost of dairy products.
The 0.2 percent rise in core inflation left the core inflation rate rising by a moderate 1.7 percent over the past 12 months, reflecting the downward pressure on costs coming from the prolonged recession.
For June, new car prices jumped by 0.7 percent and clothing costs were also up 0.7 percent. However, those gains ere offset by a 0.6 percent drop in airline fares. Price increases were also moderate in the health area with medical care edging up by 0.2 percent, the smallest gain in three months.

I have read with interest the randomized clinical trial evaluating the effects of an adherence intervention for patients initiating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) treatment by Gross and colleagues.1 This approach seems particularly useful for motivated patients who struggle with achieving or maintaining the high levels of adherence required for long-term viral suppression. Although well designed, there are several issues that I would like to raise. First, the dependent variable "adherence" is based on data collected with electronic monitors (EMs), which was fed back to intervention group participants during the study. Electronic monitors are not consistently used by everybody all the time, particularly not by patients treated for HIV in high-income countries, who tend to prefer more discrete pill containers.2,3 In our experience, discussing adherence reports with these patients frequently leads to the detection and correction of suboptimal device use. The reported intervention effect may therefore comprise both improved adherence and more accurate EM use. It would be valuable if the authors would report on how they assured equally accurate EM data in both treatment arms and add mediation analyses showing that the intervention effects on viral load are (fully) mediated by improvements in adherence (see, for example, de Bruin et al3).

NYR Stu Bickel clears waivers. Will play for CT today.
— Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) March 24, 2013
…i know Bickel struggled mightily this season, but I'm happy to see he cleared. He's still fairly young and as we've seen this year, toughness is an important part of any line-up. And if you don't remember, he was actually pretty good for the Rangers last season.
…hopefully he can work on his game in Hartford, regain some confidence and turn some heads in camp next season.
…could you imagine a defensive pairing of McIlrath and Bickel in Hartford? That opponent better be ready to throw down.

The city Law Department says the Philadelphia Home Rule Charter does not allow City Council to enforce minimum "living wage" requirements on Philadelphia International Airport subcontractors - only on businesses with direct city contracts.
Councilman W. Wilson Goode Jr. said Tuesday he would introduce a charter-change amendment in Council on Thursday to clarify and extend the city's wage and benefits standard to employees of city subcontractors.
The provision would enable Council to "require those who contract with the city or are recipients of city financial assistance to pass along the requirements of such an ordinance to subcontractors (at any tier) and subrecipients (at any tier)," according to the resolution Goode will propose.

With rising prices in almost every category of the household budget, many of us are looking for ways to stretch our resources. While some payments are fixed, one area of flexibility might be the food budget. With a bit of knowledge and some practice, most of us can trim the amount of money spent on food without sacrificing taste or health.
Remember that not all of the money spent at the grocery store may be for food items. Household goods, like paper products, cleaning supplies, light bulbs and batteries, are often placed in the shopping cart, too. Personal care products also can add up quickly. If you usually purchase these non-food items at the grocery store, make sure you allow extra money to cover these costs. You might find that separating the two categories, food and non-food, gives you a more realistic approach to food expenditures.
Let's look at some ways to save money on food purchases.
The first and most essential step in cutting food costs is planning. Planning meals will help your family eat healthier and save money at the same time. By sketching out your dinners for a week, for example, you can be sure to include a variety of foods from each food group, especially fruits and vegetables. You also may be able to resist the temptation of fast food for dinner more easily. Writing down your plan helps you factor in other activities or events, such as evening ball games or a holiday picnic.
Planning also helps you take advantage of special sales. Build your meals around meat, poultry and fish at special prices. Buying produce in season also can help you save money. Writing out the menus will help you purchase only the amount you need, and avoid waste.
A plan can help you make good use of leftovers. This can cut your food costs and your cooking time as well. Planned leftovers allow you to cook an extra amount on one day and use it the next day. Some choices for planned leftovers are obvious, like lasagna or spaghetti. Heated up the next day with different side dishes, these leftovers provide an easy meal with limited preparation. Or these extra meatballs can be tomorrow's meatball sandwiches.
A beef roast prepared on Sunday becomes hot roast beef sandwiches on Monday and beef stew on Tuesday. The leftovers from a roasted chicken can be used in a casserole or stir-fry the following day. Remember that meat can be stretched further by adding vegetables, noodles or pasta.
This strategy of planned leftovers also helps with portion control. Serve only the amount needed for the first day, so your family won't be tempted to have "seconds." Refrigerate the leftovers immediately so they are out of sight. Use the leftovers within two or three days, for safety's sake, and reheat them thoroughly, to 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
If you plan before you go food shopping, you will know what you have on hand and what you need. By eliminating extra trips to the store, you can save money. An added bonus is the less you shop, the less likely you are to make impulse purchases.
Along with the weekly meal plan, make a shopping list. Have a handy place where you and other family members can jot down staples that need to be replenished. Then before a trip to the market, compare what you need with what you have on hand, and add any items.
Remember to take your list with you when you go shopping. Try to buy only things on the list. Impulsive purchases are usually unhealthy snacks that tempt us when you shop on an empty stomach.
When possible, take advantage of store specials to stock up on items that you know you will use, such as canned goods and staples.
Manufacturer's coupons for products you frequently use will help you save money. Use them when the store gives a bonus, such as double coupon days, or when the store has that product on special. Remember that you aren't really saving money when you buy a product you won't use or that is more expensive than your regular brand. On the other hand, coupons can allow you to try a new product without investing the full price.
In addition, sign up for the individual store savings programs. This may entitle you to extra savings. For example, at Thanksgiving several local stores allow you to accumulate points toward savings for the turkey and trimmings dinner.
Compare the quality and price of store brands. They are nearly equal in nutrition and often there is little difference in taste. Sometimes store brands tend to be less uniform in size or with harmless blemishes. If you are buying canned peaches for a cobbler, for example, the store brand would work well, and save money. Notice that store brands tend to be on the top or bottom shelves with national brands at eye level.
Shop when you have time to compare labels and prices. Learn to use the unit pricing that is posted on the shelf to compare value. It tells you the cost per ounce, pound or pint, so you'll know which brand or size is the best buy. You'll soon notice that buying the largest size is not always the cheapest, especially if you don't use it all.
It is often advantageous to know your prices in order to determine if you are getting a bargain. Keep a small notebook for jotting down prices to compare, or even review your receipts at home and note the prices for future shopping trips.
It's a good idea to notice what you are throwing away. Depending on the item, you may be purchasing too much for your family to use in a timely manner. Either buy a smaller amount, or post a reminder note on the refrigerator to use it up and avoid wasting.
You may feel the planning step is an extra burden that requires too much time, but you will find with practice the process becomes easier and faster. The reward of saving time and money will be an incentive to continue planning meals for your family.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J.—No, it wasn't as extreme as the color-coded "red light-green light" system Rex Ryan devised for a struggling Mark Sanchez in November 2009, the first year for both of them with the Jets.
But the Jets and Sanchez definitely put a priority on taking care of the ball in the Jets' 27-13 win over St. Louis, and although Sanchez did lose the ball on a strip sack, he recovered it himself.
Sanchez had no turnovers and played efficiently in the win, going 15-for-20 for 178 yards with one touchdown. That performance was more than good enough against a struggling St. Louis offense.
It likely will not be enough to get it done Thanksgiving night against the potent New England attack, even if Rob Gronkowski is out with a fractured forearm.
As he did in the fourth quarter of the Jets' overtime loss at New England last month, Sanchez will have to throw more deep passes and attack the Pats' suspect secondary if he wants to keep pace with Tom Brady.
However, troubled-but-talented cornerback Aqib Talib, acquired in a trade with Tampa Bay, already made a difference in his first game with the Pats, recording a pick-six off Andrew Luck.
The New England should be more formidable than what Sanchez saw in the earlier meeting.

Lots of guys have a "fetish" where they like Asian girls. In fact, it is so
common for white men to be into dating Asian girls that it is hardly considered a fetish anymore. You definitely shouldn't be ashamed or even shy about your love of Asian women. Any guy will understand about your attraction to those petite, feminine beauties who like to treat men like they are kings.
But of all the Asian girls, Singapore girls dating is the best. However,
nothing good is easy and dating Singapore girls is much harder than dating
other Asian girls. My purpose of telling you this is so you won't miss out on a
great experience just because you think that Singapore girls dating is too much work.
