There are a number of interesting and exciting aspects to this book. Primarily, it does achieve the author's purpose of humanizing the "criminal," and making some sense of what seems to be a meaningless existence. Through the eyes of Sam, a man "who makes his living completely outside of the law. . ." one is able to gain a feeling for the language, outlook, perspective, and thinking of a typical criminal. The frame of reference is enlarged by referring to the author's and criminals' (other than Sam) criticisms of Sam's remarks.
The text is essentially divided into three parts. The introduction gives enlightening background information on prisons, criminals, and Sam. A second major aspect is the attention given to definitions which pervade the book and are particularly outlined in a separate chapter. The faithfulness of the language and detailed descriptions of Sam's criminal experiences give a feeling of realism

The flowering of pediatrics during recent decades, especially the past ten years, has been characterized by intensive research, accumulation of a vast body of new and clinically useful information, proliferation of pediatric subspecialties, and the introduction of a variety of advanced techniques in the diagnosis and treatment of patients.
We are virtually inundated with new knowledge. Even the most conscientious and dedicated doctor finds it difficult, if not impossible, to keep abreast of this constantly quickening scientific stream. Even the specialist has difficulty mastering his specialty.
In addition to the flood-tide of original pediatric articles, we have an increasing number of definitive monographs, multiauthored general textbooks, and condensed and simplified pediatric books that seek to make the more clinically useful aspects of current knowledge more readily available.
Practical Paediatric Problems, by James H. Hutchison, fits into the latter category—a relatively small general pediatric textbook. As stated in the preface to

Dallas ISD teacher mistreated, abused students on summer trip to Europe, investigation finds
A Dallas ISD investigation into a middle school teacher accused of mistreating students on a trip to Europe last summer found she violated multiple district policies, acted unprofessionally and verbally and physically abused students.
The report, released Monday by the district, found that Greiner Middle School teacher Vicki Reed neglected and demeaned students and parents and was particularly abusive toward one student, who wasn't named.. However, the mother of Julius Hill — the only black student on the trip — and two parent chaperones who accompanied 10 students on the June trip have said that Reed forced Hill to sit alone at restaurants.
The report by the district's Office of Professional Responsibility also faulted Reed for allowing the students, whose ages ranged from 10 to 12, to go to an "adult disco" in Florence, Italy, and roam a nude beach in Barcelona, Spain. While Reed was initially placed on paid leave in the fall, the district later fired her.
More to come.

Teens' Decision to Have First Drink Influenced by Best Friends, Study Suggests (2/14/13)
| More |
Teenagers' decision to have a first alcoholic drink may be influenced by their best friends, a new study suggests. Researchers found having friends who drink and who have access to alcohol is the most important factor in predicting when a teen starts drinking.
The influence of best friends was stronger than a teen's own history of troubled behavior or family history of alcoholism, the study found.

With a bold call for revolution, Deb Henretta, group president of global beauty care at Procter & Gamble Co., kicked off the 2013 Beauty Summit.
This story first appeared in the May 24, 2013 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Henretta, who has made transformational changes to the structure of P&G Beauty during year one of her tenure, took as her topic digital innovation, and she didn't mince words when it came to her assessment of beauty's progress. "Leadership in the beauty industry evangelizes a digital figure, yet still under invests. The music does not match the words," she declared, quoting from a conversation she had with digital guru Scott Galloway. "Are we really embracing digital as a transformational technology or do we hold too tightly to traditions?"
Citing some revolutionary moments in the history of the industry, from metal lipstick tubes to at-home hair color, she continued: "We have to step it up and innovate at the speed of digital, lest we risk becoming the Polaroid camera, the analogue telephone or the business pager of our industry."
Henretta said that what's needed is a fundamental shift in thinking from digital technology as a marketing tool to digital being fully integrated into all of a brand's activities. She coined the term "GPT," or "general purpose technology," to describe her vision. "Digital must become integral to everything we do — how we think, how we design, how we manufacture," she said.
The first step, Henretta said, is to envision the future, imagine the impossible. Noting that Nike has far transcended footwear by embedding digital into all aspects of its activities, she implored beauty companies to do the same. "We must make skin care more than a lotion for the body and lipstick more than adding color to your face," Henretta said. "Imagine a lipstick that can tell you when it's time to reapply, a lotion that can give you feedback about your skin's health."
Digital also fundamentally changes a brand's relationship with consumers, Henretta said, particularly when it comes to product development. "It makes creation not just about designing for the consumer, but designing with them, from the start," she emphasized.
Creating that connection is crucial to forge emotional bonds with consumers, because digital is a double-edged sword, both engaging and impersonal. Later, in response to a question, Henretta elaborated when asked about incorporating analytical data into beauty. "I have a love-hate relationship with data," said Henretta. "It's all about balance. You need to combine data with guts and judgment and that's what creates breakthrough."
Henretta concluded by acknowledging that change must start at the top. "To lead this revolution, we all have to roll up our sleeves to get the work done," she said. She shared one way P&G Beauty has started to make her vision a reality, with its first crowdsourcing program for developing innovation, in which every employee can comment on new product ideas.
Most impressive, though, was that the program took only a "few hours" to develop, Henretta said, noting that speed is a crucial component of success today. "The world is no longer moving at a linear rate, but an exponential rate," she said. "It is the pace of Generation Y and all generations to come."

SAN ANTONIO — Emma Tenayuca was a resident and radical militant of San Antonio's working class west side.

After my last charger stopped working correctly due to wear and tear over its long use, I purchased this one immediately. It arrived within a few days and works like a charm. Pretty much identical in to the Apple brand charger. Thank you for this !
Dec 3, 2014 10:45:24 PM
Highly recommend
So far, this charger seems to be well constructed and has worked well. It is a few weeks old but the functional parts, including the cord and cord connections, all appear to be very sturdy. This is highly recommended to those who needs this kind of cable.
Dec 3, 2014 10:38:15 PM
Works perfectly
Works perfectly. You can tell the cable is not one of those cheaply made ones that will charge your device only for a week. I would definitely purchase this again if I need a new one in the future.

Functional Item!
This is a great item indeed, no regret with it, very useful to me! Worth the higher price knowing its Apple approved for my iPhone 6.

The Fishing Forum where Anglers Connect...
Hello everyone, i have been contacted by an angling organisation who was drawing my attention as a professional angler to a new by-law which has come about.........it is of obvious interest to Salmon anglers and the new law will inadvertently hit pike anglers also and in some instances the course angler fishing for Bream, tench and hy-breds etc etc...........Basically Bye-law 888 effective from January the 1st 2012 states that the angler fishing on a large number of Irish waterways can not fish with worm, prawn or shrimp and must use only single barbless hooks.
Obviously this is going to be a nightmare for the fisheries staff to police, but it is obvious that the measures are being taken to protect the salmon stocks.....it will also impact on the pike angler, in particular the lure anglers as they will have to rig there plastics, jellies, jerk baits and crankbaits with single barbless hooks.
This bye-law does effect a large amount of waterways so you should really check the list to see if your local water is effected.
This document has been taken from the IFI website.
Incidentally if you want some quality Pike and Trout flies feel free to visit here.....West Coast Angling e-bay shop.
Views: 278
According to a speech by Pat Rabitte this bye law is to be repealed and replaced with a new one to take account of changes that angling orgaisations wanted made. Listed below are the main points of his speech
1. Bye Law 888 will shortly be revoked and replaced by Bye Law 897 2012. This change will have the effect of removing a number of provisions which had the unintended consequences in the implementation of Bye Law 888.
2. While this particular Bye Law was part of the proposed Salmon management regulations, it is recognised that those proposals had the potential to ultimately affect coarse and Pike anglers. These anglers would not necessarily have had reason previously to examine thae consultation documents for Salmon management and hence they did not appreciate the significance of the proposed Bye-Law.
Therefore, following discussion with the Angling delegation, it has been agreed that for future years, in addition to publication on my Departments's website, the advisory/consultation documentation will be sent directly to the main angler representative bodies in advance of sign off. The angling representatives can then disseminate to their members and other interested parties.
3. Reference to banning prawn and shrimp as angling baits be removed from the Bye-Law.
4. Remove the River Fergus system from the Bye-Law.
5. Remove the Kilcolgan River from the Bye-Law.
6. All other issues can be dealt with through giving a clear communication of the spirit and intent of the Bye-Law and how it is going to be implemented.
Nice one Eamon, thanks for that.........
the then vice chairman of tafi said at the agm last sunday that single barbless hooks act as a scissors when it comes to small trout under 8oz, not sure where he got his info or research on this. he mentioned that this bye law was to be repealed too, he is now the chairman by the way :)
As you can see below the bye law regarding single barbless hooks was actually brought in in 2007. I must say Andrew that I disagree that all anglers are intent on catching fish just to kill them, this may have been the way years ago but i know here in Athlone, and Declan can back me up on this, there is now a strong bias towards catch and release and all the llocal clubs actively encourage this.
I, John Browne, Minister of State at the Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources, in exercise of the powers conferred on me by section 9 (as amended by section 3 of the Fisheries (Amendment) Act 1962 (No. 31 of 1962)) of the Fisheries (Consolidation) Act 1959 (No. 14 of 1959), section 33 of the Fisheries (Amendment) Act 1962, the Fisheries (Transfer of Departmental Administration and Ministerial Functions) Order 1977 (S.I. No. 30 of 1977) (as adapted by the Marine and Natural Resources (Alteration of Name of Department and Title of Minister) Order 2002 (S.I. No. 307 of 2002)), the Marine (Delegation of Ministerial Functions) Order 2006 (S.I. No. 82 of 2006) and the Marine (Delegation of Ministerial Functions) (No. 4) Order 2006 (S.I. No. 543 of 2006) and having complied with the requirements of Regulation 31 of the European Communities (Natural Habitats) Regulations 1997 (S.I. No. 94 of 1997), hereby make the following bye-law:
1. (1) This Bye-law may be cited as the Eastern Fisheries Region (Angling) Bye-law No. 824, 2007.
(2) This Bye-law comes into operation on the day of its making.
2. Notwithstanding anything contained in any Bye-law, it is prohibited for a person to use or attempt to use worms as bait or any fish hooks, other than single barbless hooks, in angling for any kind of fish in the waters of a river mentioned in column (2) of the Schedule opposite the mention of a fishery district in column (1) of the Schedule.

Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources.
Thanks for the reply Eamon, that is interesting, i did not know that the bye-law had been in for while on the Eastern region. Do you think it has been effective?
I must say my words in the last post would actually exceed my beliefs and i do not for one minute suggest that ALL anglers are killing fish all over the place.....Indeed on the fishery that i run, every single trout was returned alive last season apart from 2 for the table, That shows that anglers are certainly conscious of catch and release and as you say they would appear to be a growing number. However the pile of 14 good pike that i found behind a weedy bank last season at a fishery near to where i live, were not so lucky.........this is not an isolated instance either....Do these guys actually care about barbless hooks? This is not a rule thing, this is a mental attitude thing.
as eamon said above catch and release is rapidly increasing on lough ree, the 3 major clubs in athlone ALL exercise this in trout and of course pike fishing.. some are taken for the table but more and more often they are being weighed and carefully released,

My husband has a thing for t-shirts. Just like my beloved scrapbooks, he looks past the armpit holes, faded colors, and crackling insignias and instead sees each shirt's intense sentimental value (white undershirts aside, though he does not like to part with these either!). He's practically a t-shirt hoarder. This has led me to wonder, what can I do with all of his old t-shirts (the ones I can talk him into parting with)? This is besides the common continuum of clothing use that goes something like this: wearing it out, passing it down, and repurposing as renovation/workout clothes/pajamas.
Here are some of the ideas I found:
- Cleaning Rags: Depending on the job, rip up the shirts into various sizes to use as cleaning rags throughout the house and garage.
- Pet Toy: Tear the t-shirt into strips and then braid several strips together to make a great tug-of-war toy for a cat or a dog. If you braid it tightly enough it should come out like the sturdy ones you see for dogs at the pet store!
- Wall Art: You can frame old t-shirts with neat messages and logos to use as art in dens, closets, dorm rooms, cubicles/offices, or really anywhere.
- Stylish Rug: You can rip t-shirts up, dye them or separate by a color pattern, and make a flokati rug. Here is a tutorial.
- Bedding for a Pet Cage: Tear shirts into strips and line the bottom of your pet's cage/bed for extra comfort and warmth.
- Dog Outfit: For people who like to dress their dog, how about turning your old t-shirts into a clothing line for your pet?
- T-Shirt Quilt: I have decided that since Paul attaches great sentimental value to his shirts, we should save a bunch of them (once they are past the wearing stage) and make a quilt. How neat! This would be a cute gift for someone going off to college or moving into their first apartment/home.
- Scrapbook Background Pages/Scrapbook Covers: It would be cute to either cut the message from a t-shirt to use as part of a scrapbook page or to cut the shirt into a big square and bind it with a white page to use as background to photographs. Why not wrap the outer cover with an old sporting event/college/funny t-shirt that holds a lot of sentimental value to you? Also think about keeping a favorite onesie or t-shirt from your child that you do not wish to part with and enhance your child's scrapbook.
- Handbag or Cloth Grocery Bag
Before researching this article, I had no idea of all of the creative ways people have come up with to repurpose old t-shirts. My favorites are the flokati rug and the t-shirt quilt! In our household, we typically repurpose old t-shirts for renovation/painting projects/pajamas, or donate when they are still wearable for normal purposes. But now I see that even the ones that are stained and muddied up by projects can still be torn into strips and used for something else.

Everyone knows Woody Allen plays jazz clarinet. In fact, documentarian Barbara Kopple made a pretty good film of his band in 1997 called "Wild Man Blues."
Think of "To Rome With Love" -- the latest in Allen's post-graduate grand tour movies -- as a long jazz solo by a hugely talented but excruciatingly bored musician. Which is to say that some of the comedy licks in the film are pretty good, even if familiar. Some are positively inspired. And some are, quite frankly, as tired as can be and based on ideas that he would probably have rejected out of hand when he was working at the top of his game 20 years ago.
Allen and Judy Davis play an American couple in Rome to meet their daughter's new Italian fiance and his parents. Alison Pil, of Aaron Sorkin's "The Newsroom," plays his daughter.
Greta Gerwig is in it, too, playing the girlfriend of Jesse Eisenberg, which is wonderful news. If Gerwig could somehow slip into frequent rotation in Allen's stock company, there'd have been some major point to this film after all, besides all the comic tourism that Allen is doing in late life (and which is raking in nice box office returns from Americans smitten with locations like Paris, London, Rome and Madrid).
He's admitted flat-out that he got started doing it in "Match Point" because Britain gave him some financial breaks to film his unusual, semi-Hitchcockian suspense thriller there.
Since then, it's as if he wanted to leave grubby old Brooklyn -- Manhattan, too -- as far behind as possible.
Alec Baldwin plays an American architect back in Rome after spending his early life there. He plays an apparition -- nicely unexplained -- to Eisenberg, who is having a flirtation with his girlfriend's promiscuous, man-eating best friend (played by Ellen Page, not exactly typecasting).
There are the usual snotty and fatiguing Allen jokes full of literacy jammed down your throat to prove how phony some people are -- references to Yeats and "Ozymandias melancholia" -- but it all has just as much phony superficiality in his film as it's supposed to prove about his characters.
The minute you hear one of Allen's whiners complaining "I haven't made my mark," you want to step behind the screen and throttle the guy who's been making a film a year about such people for decades.
You get just as much of a luxuriant tourist view of Rome as you did of Paris in the overpraised and all-too-successful "Midnight in Paris": There's the Victor Emmanuel Monument, the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, etc.
Allen remains one of the great gag writers in the Western World so, of course, there are a few very funny lines sprinkled in.
But in the middle of watching this experienced soloist play some comic variations on some pretty old comic licks, there's at least one inspired chorus coming out of one of the oldest cliches extant. The cliche is that almost all of us love to sing in the shower. Some of us are even pretty good at it. He takes that to hilarious comic extremes by showing us an Italian mortician who can only sound like Caruso when he's in the shower.
So Allen -- playing a musical impresario from New York who once staged a production of "Rigoletto" where everyone was in costume as white mice -- presents the fellow that way. He's naked onstage singing in a portable shower -- giving recitals at first and, at long last, playing the coveted role of his life time as Pagliacci.
Add to those scenes some pretty good wisecracks -- especially those delivered by Allen and Baldwin -- and you've got a passable reason to sit through the film.
It's near-unanimous, nevertheless, that the time has arrived for Woody Allen, travel agent, to close up shop, come back home and figure out some interesting new stories he might actually tell about life on American soil.
3 stars (out of 4) ���
STARRING: Woody Allen, Alec Baldwin, Judy Davis, Ellen Page, Greta Gerwig, Penelope Cruz, Jesse Eisenberg ���

Around the Web on Wheels: 03.22.07By Jessica | Permalink | No Comments | March 22nd, 2007 | Trackback
The wheels on the bike go round and round… All the way to Milano-Sanremo this Saturday. Wahoo!
- It's all Milano-Sanremo, all the time. Kind of. Here's an overview of the race, here's a course profile (with some closeups of the final climbs), and here are the start lists. Danilo Di Luca (Liquigas) is still sick with the flu, so won't be competing this year, which is too bad. This is the race every Italian would love to win. Remember Petacchi's win a few years ago? The man was crying, for pete's sake… And as far as I know, Cycling.tv will be carrying the race live on Saturday on their Versus channel.
- If you thought the last-minute pow-wow in Belgium that made Paris-Nice possible this year would solve all the ProTour issues, I've got a bridge I'd like to sell you. Scroll down a bit here and look for "ProTour tug-of-war continues." It's amazing how petty some people can be.
- Vino won't be riding Milano-Sanremo, but he's looking forward to having Tirreno-Adriatico winner Andreas Klöden on his Tour de France team.
- Looking ahead to the Tour de Georgia, five teams have already confirmed their lineups - including Discovery, CSC, Quick Step and Tinkoff.
- Team Unibet.com will be racing under a different name and jersey in France, since they're not allowed to use their official name… They'll now be Team Canyon.com wearing black and orange, but only in France. The UCI has already okay'd this move, they're just waiting for a response from the ASO.
- The Fat Cyclist thinks it's not the dopers who are killing cycling, and I think I might agree with him. Choice line: "Somebody get a big, family sized roll of duct tape and wrap it around Dick Pound's (WADA) and Pat McQuaid's (UCI) faces until they can no longer speak. Every time they open their mouths, cycling gets worse." Amen. Definitely worth a read, this article.
- Semi-local boy Tyler Farrar (Cofidis) didn't make it to the end of Paris-Nice (he had the sniffles), and is refocusing on the Classics.
- Finally, I have no idea how they got this picture, but it's damned cool.

Saturday's District 10 girls basketball roundup, March 2
FARRELL -- Alexandra Ricketts hit three 3-pointers as part of an 18-point performance to lead Kennedy Catholic to a 67-45 victory over Cochranton in the District 10 Class A championship game Saturday at Farrell High School.
The Golden Eagles (22-2) took a modest 29-22 lead into the half before blowing the game open with a 24-3 spurt in the third quarter. Rachel Burns chipped in with 15 points for Kennedy Catholic, while Courtney Sargent added 14.
Kendell Dickson's 12 points led Cochranton (16-9).
Kennedy Catholic will play either Quigley or North Catholic in the first round of the PIAA playoffs. Cochranton will play Vincentian Academy, which defeated Serra Catholic Saturday to win the WPIAL title.
- Sharpsville 48, Mercer 29: At Farrell High School, McKenzie Popatak exploded for 30 points to outscore the Mustangs single-handedly and lead the Blue Devils (17-8) to a win in the District 10 Class AA third-place matchup.
Sharpsville, which moves on to the first round of the PIAA playoffs, bolted from the gates to take a 15-5 first-quarter lead and then held Mercer to just two second-quarter points to extend its lead to 23-7 at halftime.
Megan Davis added nine points for Sharpsville. Lexie Arkwright scored 14 points to lead Mercer (17-8).

From a Fan...
I have listened to Marshall's music exclusively since I was kindly given the Jericho CD—I suffer from anxiety. When I truly realized Marshall's gift could help my son, I began calling it my 'ahhhhh' music. One evening I picked my son up from an obviously difficult sport's practice. His voice was raised; he was agitated and ranting; his emotions were off the chart. I plugged in Jericho. In the twenty minute drive home his whole demeanor changed. By the time we got out of the car he was easy and relaxed. At dinner I remember looking at him and thinking, wow!, the power of Marshall's gift is such a blessing.
Now I give away Jericho to old and new friends. What a gift! I am proud to call Marshall my friend and old neighbor. His music helps me save my health and keeps my anxiety in check. And I am so thankful to share him with others.

Accelerated learning with the Mozart Effect
Many of my customers are teachers, who use my music in the classroom. Music plays a vital role in the learning process. It helps us concentrate, and feel centered and energized. It also helps us assimilate large amounts of material quickly and store it in long-term memory.
From a teacher
I am a Kindergarten teacher and use your CDs daily in the classroom as background music. It calms the students and creates a relaxing environment to work in. We call it our "thinking music!" I also unwind with it in the evenings...

Almost a disastrous double back flip
I was @ Cypress last weekend & me & some dude were tryiin' to huck some doubles into the airbag.
Even before either of us had tried one, I had this little clip running through my head.
In my head, I was well aware of what could happen.
Here is buddy trying one, watch how close his head comes to the lip of the jump!!!
His helmet might have even grazed the lip, it's hard to tell? It definitely isn't done up tight enough.
https://vimeo.com/55688067 We were talkin' about tryin' one, then he bust one out without sayin'. So I was a tad stoked, as you can hear.
That's all I need to bust one or two out as well.
If someone else can do one, I can't see why the fuck I shouldn't be able to do it as well.:dunno:
After seeing how close he came to catastrophe, it was definitely something I was taking into consideration.
As long as I'm aware of where I'm @ on the jump, I think I can get a little more pre-load in there?
The quality is garbage sorry I don't have the knowledge to split the super long clips, so I had to re-record them playing on my pc.
Both of you are making the classic mistake when trying flips. Your not jumping/popping. You're putting all your effort into the spin and none into simply doing the jump. While I was learning to do backflips on my feet my gymnast friend always told me "jump and then flip".
Watch it again, I don't really use any of the jumps spinning momentum. I wait until I know I'm @ the edge of the lip, then pop. My rotations are way slower because of this, but I go much bigger.
I"m not even close to touchin' the lip, my rotation starts after I leave the jump.
Sorry I was thinking more of just your friend.
Not bad, props just for trying, I won't pretend I can do a double but I do have some basic gymnastic experience.
You will get round much quicker if you get your knees more tucked up into your chest.
Try grabbing the back of your knee for starters and then when you get more used to it you can grab the board.

Prince, Pitt. Pitt, Prince. Perhaps not. But Brad Pitt was certainly psyched when he met Prince Charles at the London premiere of Legends of the Fall. Afterward, Pitt, who attended with his girlfriend, actress Gwyneth Paltrow (daughter of actress Blythe Danner), said, "It's history, right? For me, that is, not him." At the same event, Pierce Brosnan (below), in England filming his debut as the new 007, squired his real-life Bond girl, journalist Keely Shaye-Smith.
Supermodel Beverly Peele let her 19-month-old daughter, Cairo (whose father is Peele's husband, music producer Jeffrey Alexander), take a turn in the makeup chair during a family carnival that raised funds for the Children's Museum of Manhattan.
To be or not to be present at the opening night party for his Hamlet on Broadway was never in question for Ralph Fiennes, who brought his wife, actress Alex Kingston, along to help him celebrate the rave reviews both he and the production received upon transferring from the London stage. The Schindler's List and Quiz Show star will be doing his Dane in New York City through late July.
We can't vouch for his karma, but Boy George had the chameleon part down pat—though the beard is fake, that's his own hair—at a party in London to celebrate the publication of his autobiography, Take It Like a Man, just out in England.
Sharon Lawrence gave in to prenuptial hysteria while scouting gowns in L.A. for her NYPD Blue character, assistant DA Sylvia Costas, to wear when Costas walks down the aisle with Det. Andy Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) in the series' May 23 season finale.
Well-wheeled Harrison Ford and costar Julia Ormond spent a week on the streets of Martha's Vineyard filming scenes for Sabrina, a remake of the 1954 movie that starred Humphrey Bogart and Audrey Hepburn.
At the White House Correspondents dinner in Washington, MTV newshound Tabitha Soren (center) and veejay Kennedy held a summit with senior presidential adviser George Stephanopoulos. Soren reports she "hit George up for an interview with Hillary."
The sisters Wagner, all grown now, caught up over dinner at Drai's, an L.A. eatery. They are, from left, artist Courtney, 20, daughter of Robert Wagner and Natalie Wood; TV personality Katie, 30, daughter of Wagner and actress Marion Marshall; and actress Natasha Gregson, 24, daughter of Wood and producer Richard Gregson (she was later adopted by Wagner).
Madonna, in faux leopard, proved that small dogs and big cats can coexist as she strolled with her new Chihuahua, Chiquita, in Manhattan. In the past two months, she has switched agents twice—from CAA to William Morris to ICM—in what some suspect is an attempt to jump-start her film career.
The hulk and the hunk: Cousins-in-law Arnold Schwarzenegger and John Kennedy Jr. saw eye to eye at a gala benefit for the American Ballet Theatre in New York City. The dance company was a favorite cause of John's late mother, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

Parent Directory | Revision Log
|Links to HEAD:
|(view) (download) (as text) (annotate)
Backport fix from trunk to stop wpa_supplicant associating before we are ready, #171273.
Support new style wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface directive, #164551.
update copyrights once like a band-aid
wpa_supplicant packet socket checks have been moved to the ebuild.
/sys/class/net/$iface/wireless means it's a wireless device too in iwconfig.sh and wpa_supplicant.sh
wpa_supplicant now launches even when wireless radio has been killed as if the user enables it then it will associate and work without the user having to restart the interface.
Preliminary support for dscape ieee80211 stack devices.
Remove useless quoting
wireless cards now get their txpower set to auto before starting.
/proc/net/wireless may not have whitespace after $iface: wpa_supplicant no longer requires ctrl_interface set. Thanks to kelmo for those ideas.
move /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d to /lib/rcscripts/net
Ensure that net.lo is started before other interfaces and wpa_supplicant has a positive timeout if no action file
net modules now apply their own metric if they are activated, which makes for a much easier and less mesy calculation.
Removed fs=sh from vim comment on net modules
All net modules how have a .sh suffix to indicate that they are shell scripts as not everyone uses vim.
net script modules variables function has been moved into module_expose and removed from module_depend to be more correct. net script modules have had #!/bin/bash removed from the top and now set vim fs=sh to be more correct.
Misc STYLE and quoting issues fixes in net scripts. dhclient and udhcpc now work with RFC violating space separated domain names in /etc/resolv.conf - they get appended to the search option if it's not specified. punted clean_pidfile and process_finished functions and as start-stop-daemon as provided by rc-daemon.sh now provides the same thing, just better.
Ensure that ifplugd, netplugd and wpa_supplicant timeouts really are infinite when requested. Thanks to embobo.
Always ensure the end_service is called, #119233 again. You can now specify a maxfail value for pppd (default 0), #115346. net.lo now depends on isapnp to work with older NICs, #121539. chat commands in pppd are now re-quoted, #121665. ip routing policies are now supports via the rule_eth0=( ... ) variable (only supported by iproute2), #107628. wpa_supplicant now looks for config files in order /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-$iface.conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and for these wpa_cli scripts /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_cli.sh /sbin/wpa_cli.action
Fixed bonding module, improved wireless with rt2500 and WPA
iwconfig now supports multiple iwconfig_* and iwpriv_* statements and is also configurable for specific ESSIDs. This allows use to use the inbuilt WPA support in the rt2500 driver. module-loader now loads interface specific configuration files, #118366.
wpa_supplicant works with bash-3.1 now
more copyright updates
Remove nasty undocumented backgrounding as we now support ifplugd, netplug and wpa_supplicant-0.4.x which do much better jobs.
Stop ifplugd and netplugd from operating on bonded and vlan interfaces.
Fix wpa_suppicant error when auth is IEEE 802.1X (NO WPA) #112938. Added pppd-wrapper helper
Changed from eval foo=\"\$config_$ifvar\" to foo=config_$ivar; foo=$!foo This is to avoid using the eval statement to extract user configured vars. Enhanced pppd module so that it obeys metric routes, does not mess with the system resolv.conf and works with updetach a bit better, #112049. Fixed pointotpoint, #112757.
wpa_supplicant defaults to backgrounding now too
ifplugd and netplug now background automatically instead of waiting 10 seconds to see if the interface was configured OK
New net scripts depend calls - functions, variables and provide. This saves having to create 3 seperate functions in each module which means a saving of around 600-800 bytes per module. Split apipa out of arping module due to user demand for seperate functionality. arping module now works correctly. runscript sets RC_KILL_CHILDREN=no when restarting a service, otherwise things like your ssh session get killed. adsl module supports new rp-pppoe-3.6 ebuild, #102820 Config profile is now changed correctly when doing 'rc foo' and you're in the default runlevel, #101105
Moved wpa_supplicant no driver defined warning to after the wireless/wired check
wpa_supplicant now works on more than one interface.
You can now specify a custom wpa_supplicant configuration file.
wpa_supplicant now works on wired interfaces, and can work with ifplugd and netplug too.
Simplified the iwconfig and wpa_supplicant fix for testing wireless extensions
iwconfig and wpa_supplicant now check to see if /proc/net/wireless exists before checking for extensions, #106036
updated env_whitelist so that nothing is allowed by default system module now runs through pre instead of post and is run by lo as well, so dns_ options can be configured for it netplug and wpa_supplicant understand negative timeouts to be defined as "return immediately and dont wait for success" dns options and sortlist now get merged in resolv.conf too bridge error message regarding the kernel module should work with newer versions of bridge-utils
iwconfig fixed for scanned ad-hoc networks we now prefer managed over ad-hoc when processing scan results iwconfig defaults to sleeping 1 second before scanning iwconfig associate_test_quality now works. Fixes #103579 thanks to Harald Schioeberg iproute2 now understands ifconfig style netmask routes
dhcpcd now reports the correct needed version iwconfig and wpa_supplicant have better tests for wireless interface which fixes the 'lan wlan' problem
Added # vim:ts=4 to all net-script files and re-indented /dep{cache,tree} are now chmodded 0644 so users can read them
More anal about RHS quoting
0 timeout now means infinite for wpa_supplicant and iwconfig wrt #90443
Fixed some start/stop/restart logic for #99663.
Fixed <wpa_supplicant-0.4 support
and are now available in predown() - fixes #99106
You cannot rename VLAN interfaces
Changed wpa-supplicant to wpa_supplicant when reporting that it is not installed. Fixes #99381 Fixed some startup problems caused by a mixture of inactive + begin_service/end_service functions.
Branch baselayout-1.12.
Moved wpa_supplicant and iwconfig et all from /usr/sbin to /sbin
wpa_supplicant now marks service as stopped when using wpa_supplicant-0.4.x and we have associated but failed to configure in the background.
wpa_supplicant now respects the background=no option if wpa_suppliant>=0.4.0 is installed fixed network dependencies some more You can now restart a script marked starting/inactive Documented the use of the RC_USE_CONFIG_PROFILE variable in conf.d/rc udhcpc now removes stale pidfiles
iwconfig and wpa_supplicant now check rk_kill if available and produce a suitable error if rf is killed #56430
style updates to all modules
etc/{resolv,ntp,yp}.conf now link to /var/lib/net-scripts
Added macnet module (like essidnet but for mac addresses) Regresses macchanger one version Tweaked module depends for macnet dhcp helper now uses macnet
added #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh to modules and helpers so they now get nice syntax highlighting and indenting
changed default indentation to 2 spaces to match rcscripts in functions.sh wpa_supplicant now stops wpa_cli before wpa_supplicant to fix a potential future error
wpa_supplicant now supports wpa_supplicant-0.4.0 iwconfig downs and ups the interface after a scan
force location of wpa_monitor.action
Changed "sed -ne" to "sed -n -e" for portability. Added auto_interface (default yes). if auto_interface is yes then we *) default to dhcp *) automatically calculate a metric (this may need work) *) select the best interface based on metric (restore resolv.conf, ntp.conf and yp.conf we have saved) otherwise we *) default to null wpa_supplicant no longer kills itself when we're not stopping the interface it's running on. wpa_supplicant now uses wpa_monitor (yet to be released) if available. Added a new module called system which enables the definition of domain name, dns servers, ntp servers, nis domain and nis servers per interface. essidnet and dhcp helpers have been re-coded around this module.
wpa_supplicant now stops wpa_monitor if it's been launched
Fixed ifconfig and iproute2 erroring from new lo code - fixes #88006 If /proc/net/netlink does not exist then iproute2 will fail the check_installed function with an appropriate error - Thanks to Jeremy Huddleston for the patch. If /proc/net/packet does not exist then wpa_supplicant will fail check_installed function with an appropriate error Background fixes for net.lo, udhcpc and wpa_supplicant
wpa_supplicant now calls iwconfig_defaults and iwconfig_user_config if available - fixes #88703
removed ${devnull} from net.lo and net-script modules updated all modules not to re-direct stderr where appropriate iwconfig and wpa_supplicant now save their current ESSID via save_options and reload it in their pre_stops so that ${ESSID} and ${ESSIDVAR} can be used in users custom postdown functions
added a bash_variable to functions.sh which converts the given string into a variable that bash can use - fixes #88175 net scripts can only launch if we're not in ${BOOTLEVEL}
RC_DAEMON_syslog_ng allows syslog-ng to be started with the specified launcher - like valgrind or strace. Handy for debugging/auditing. Thanks to Rob Holland for the idea. Stopped setting ESSID in predown functions in iwconfig and wpa_supplicant as there is no guarantee that the current ESSID is the one we started with Also, we may not have an ESSID at all...
bridge stops removing IP addresses from bridge ports. iwconfig no longer tries to get an ESSID from non-wireless interfaces. ifconfig no longer errors when deleting addresses on a non-existant interface.
wpa_supplicant now handles whitespace when checking the ctrl_interface dir
rc-daemon.sh now provides a working wrapper for start-stop-daemon fixes bug #7198 removed ps calls from net scripts
It's now possible to configure addresses and routes for the loopback interface if required - however you cannot override our defaults wpa_supplicant and iwconfig now loop for 5 seconds if essid is not returned straight away fixed depends error in run_script
Updated copyright headers
STYLE fixes to many net-scripts modules Removed hardcoded Version and replaced with cvs $Header:
replaced awk commands with sed equivalents in net-scripts to make us more portable
wpa_supplicant now works with EAP - fixes #78367
comment fixes
fixed remove stale socket
wpa_supplicant forces ctrl_interface to /var/run/wpa_supplicant and removes stale directories clean_pidfile function no longer errors on empty pidfiles

fixed typo in last commit
dhcpcd and udhcpc now run via the eval statement so quotes can be used in options. Fixes #74053 - thanks to Evan Buswell
iwconfig now unsets wireless config and downs interface when backgrounding fails wpa_supplicant now supports backgrounding
essidnet - fixed setting up search domains ifconfig now reads the old gateway variable correctly - fixes #73607 iwconfig now supports backgrounding
added rc-script statuses "starting" and "inactive" dhcpcd, udhcpc and dhclient now support backgrounding - fixes #52975
removed hardcoded ath0 in wpa_supplicant
removed modules use dependancy in net.lo and added installed - this allows use to provide "virtual" modules which are only "installed" when other depended modules are installed
wpa_supplicant module added config-system now creates files as .tmp instead of .new and loads the wpa_supplicant module if needed ifconfig now addes aliases to devices other than eth0 dhcpcd, dhclient, pump and udhcpc now expose the dhcp_${IFACE} variable instead of the old peer_dns_${IFACE}, peer_ntp_${IFACE}, peer_nis_${IFACE} ones

A Little Graphic Complaint
So, this probably won't interest about 95% of people who come across the front page of ResurrectionSong today, but I still need to get it off my chest.
When exporting a 52-page layout to PDF using QuarkXPress' built-in export utility, and when that document might contain a decent number of placed images and advertisements, I have noticed one thing:
Damn, this is freakin' slow. Like I have nothing better to do than wait for spinning beachballs to tell me that the export is complete and I can move on…

Greg KH Self-Professed Email Junkie
Novell kernel developer Greg Kroah-Hartman has released statistics on his personal email activity.
Kroah-Hartman writes in his blog, "A few years ago, when one of my kids was asked what their dad did for work, they replied, 'Sit in the basement and write email.' It's not that far from the truth."
He analyzed his server log data to find out how many emails he wrote in 2008 and came up with 19,057, an average of 52 per day. Not that unusual these days, but the frequency is. The busiest day had 600 emails, which meant one per minute in a normal 10-hour day, although it's clear that Kroah-Hartman regularly puts in longer days.
He mentions in his blog that he sends out a lot of patch mail to the kernel list and replies to find out where patch originators work. The spike of email activity is at 10 in the morning and again around 4 in the afternoon. His statistics show peak activity over the year in June and August.
Kroah-Hartman says, "it's no wonder that Google thinks my email address is a spam-bot and refuses to let me sign up for any Google groups with it."

Charlie Sheen Can't Even Fail Well
According to Fox, some people weren't impressed with the first show in Charlie Sheen's "Torpedo of Dumb" tour. I just can't figure out why.
What did they expect? Did they expect a better class of failure? A more fun kind of public self-destruction? Or perhaps they hoped for some life-changing wisdom from the colossal ego and his porn star/actress "goddesses." I know that when I want guidance, the first place I look is a hack actor who probably should have been jailed a number of times over for assaulting and threatening the women in his life. Maybe we can all learn something from a man who has managed to skate through all of his most disastrously dumb decisions and increasingly crazy behavior without having to pay anything resembling a real cost. Except, apparently, in his dental hygiene.
If they are really lucky, maybe he will share his way through the mound of cocaine that just has to be part of his rider.
I'm sure that what they really want is just the big drama and unhinged rants that made him even more famous than the exquisitely bad excuse for a comedy whose only redeeming value is that I kind of have a soft spot in my heart for Ducky. They want the car crash and he just didn't manage to deliver enough blood.
There's something sad about a man who can't even fail with enough panache to keep the mob happy.

Ah, the Little Joys of Netflix
Late Sunday night, working on ads for a few magazines based in Australia, answering emails from our counterparts in Shanghai, and watching News Radio streaming through the Xbox 360.
News Radio still stands out as one of the funniest, most engaging sitcoms of all time. The writing, the comedic timing, the personalities are all stunningly good. I still miss Phil Hartman, I still have a crush on Maura Teirney, Steven Root's Jimmy James is something close to perfect, and I still think Dave Foley is the best thing by far to come out of Kids in the Hall. Maybe the only good thing to come out of Kids in the Hall, come to think of it.
And I'm watching it streaming through my Xbox while trying to catch up on work. Isn't technology amazing?
The only sad part is that I own the first three seasons on DVD, but I'm apparently too lazy to go upstairs and get them out…

I'm Sorry, but We're Just Not That Into You
The time of beauty pageants in America is coming to an end. Or, at least, that's what I'm hoping.
I'm entirely okay with that.
The pageants for young girls are freakish and the girls are a ridiculous mockery of feminine beauty. The women and girls who compete in pageants are airbrushed and perpetuate a focus on physical beauty as the standard of a woman's value to the world.
If I were a dad, I wouldn't want my little girl taking part in pageants. Not because I wouldn't want her to be beautiful or to feel beautiful, but because I would want her to understand that her ultimate measure of value in the world is in the things that she does, the lives she effects, and the things she accomplished--and, just as importantly, not in how good she looks in a bathing suit.
I'm sure that many of the parents and many of the participants are good people. I'm sure many lead happy and good lives and that the pageant system didn't do them any harm.
But what I value in life is decidedly at odds with what I believe those pageants teach young girls. If the Miss America Pageant were to die off completely, I wouldn't shed a tear.

Congratulations, New Orleans
I'm almost as surprised by the Saints' win today as I was by Shannon Sharpe's missing the final cut for the Hall of Fame. Happier about the former, though.
As disappointed as I am for Peyton Manning, it is impossible to be truly disappointed in the result.
Boo, on the other hand, to Audi for an ad that made me want to buy a Hummer. Or a Chris "Birdman" Anderson-mobile.

Spartacus: Blood and Boobs
I just episode one of Spartacus: Blood and Sand.
Well, what to say about that?
It makes 300 look subtle. It makes The Passion of the Christ look bloodless. And it has more boobs than you can count count. That last bit may not be strictly true. You probably could count the breasts on display, but it would take a sharp eye and strict attention to the task, which sort of takes the fun out of it.
That's not all. You also get ridiculously bad acting, over-the-top writing, uproariously strange sex scenes, and some full frontal male nudity for the women. What you don't get is compelling story-telling, interesting characters, or a moment's respite from the overly stylized presentation.
I enjoyed 300,, but this takes the same ingredients and, somehow, screws up the recipe. I would say that the urge to oversell the comic book aspects of the violence, with explosions of blood consuming the screens, limbs flying willy-nilly, and even the smallest moments of violence given slow-motion treatment and imposing music. The sex scenes, well-short of the graphic nature of pornography but exhibiting the same skewed sense of fantasy sensuality, is just as off-putting as the stylized violence.
I suppose that's a long winded way of saying that I thought that 300 stepped over the line of good story-telling and good taste in some of the same ways as Spartacus, but I still found something worth enjoying. This new Spartacus, on the other hand, left that line so far behind that all I could find was the urge to point and laugh when our hero's wife fairly exploded into a wash of blood during the climax of one particularly strange dream sequence. I'm sure there's something good about the show outside of its admirable commitment to gratuitous nudity; but, then, it fails even at that titillation when you realize that the writhing girls and simulated orgasms are an insult to anything remotely resembling real intimacy.
Don't even get me started on the mismatched accents…

Lethal Drinking: Mashed Blogging
With the war between Conan O'Brien and Jay Leno--ably flamed on by Jimmy Kimmel (Seriously, did you see him on the Leno show tonight? The audience was getting uncomfortable by the end of that 10@10 piece.), and commented on by the wonderful Craig Ferguson--I have to admit to watching shows I wouldn't normally watch. Normally, I'd avoid Leno's crap prime time show, I'd skip right over Conan's awkward humor, and I'd spend my time working. So, late night wars and NBC's wholly inept handling of a bad situation have given me a little bit of a break from my usual rut.
Which is nice for me.
But it doesn't change the fact that it grows harder and harder for me to enjoy Lethal Weapon as the years go by. Not just because Mel Gibson's mullet is so outdated, but because Gibson is a boozy anti-Semite and Danny Glover is a dictator loving loon of Pat Robertson-esque proportions (the loon part, that is, not the dictator part).
Damnit, I used to love that movie.
Which brings me to the point. Drinking. Drinking is precisely the thing that helps us cope in times like these. In times where late night hosts are locked in cycles of anger and aggression, where Gibson can't be trusted in polite company, and where Glover poops on pretty much everything that gave him a better life than I'll ever know (at least in a material sense--whenever he opens his mouth, I feel significantly blessed on the intellectual side of things).
What was I saying?
Oh, yes, drinking.
In the Rockies? Blogger or blogging groupie or unreformed alcoholic? Or any combination of the above (which are beside and not actually above, but that's beside the point). Well, good, because the Bill with too many LLLLL's is calling out to all of us to come drink at the Rocky Mountain Blogger Fest.
Check it out here to, RSVP, and vote for a date. I'm planning to be there whatever date is chosen and I'm looking forward to drinking the memory of my own mullet into the trash bin of history.

Hooray for Conan! (Now with Inappropriate Similes and Stuff)
I really don't like Conan O'Brien. He isn't that funny, I don't like the way he interviews folks, and I thought he was a horrible choice to inherit the Tonight Show mantle. It just didn't seem to be the right fit--like asking Megadeth to cover White Lion's "When the Children Cry." And to mean it.
NBC is treating him like the history of music will treat the memory of Kip Winger. Their idea of trying to pull Jay's show back into the late night time slot and devaluing the Tonight Show brand (which Conan rightfully calls the "greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting") is about as smart as playing Warrant's "Cherry Pie" for an audience of Bad Brains fans. Which, we all know how bad that would be, don't we?
Anyway, his valiantly defiant news release is even funnier than Ozzy Osbourne's less sober moments.
None of which changes the fact that Victoria Beckham looks scarily plastic on American Idol tonight. What the hell happened to that woman's face? Whatever it is, that's some scary bad makeup. It's like the worst of the 60's and Tammy Fay Baker all came together in one big, laminated mask upon her face.
Not an attractive look.

So You THink You Can Dance Meets Avatar: The, Damnit, I'm Trying to be Nice Edition (Updated)
The polite view--and, I'm really trying to be polite here--of the singing of the Avatar theme song (I'm not sure if that's the actual name of the song* or not, but roll with me)--is that:
A- The songwriter was having an off however the hell long it took for him or her to write the song.
B- The singer was had a cold and it made her sound like a sniffly walrus.
C- The seamstress was a blind charity case with substance abuse issues.
Because, to be honest, that dress was the best part of the worst performance of a hideous song that I've seen on national TV since William Hung had his too many minutes of entirely unearned fame.
* And, since I can't help myself, that would be Leona Lewis singing "I See You." Which does nothing to change my opinion of the song or the performance. I sounded like someone wanted to almost re-write that painfully irritating Celine Dion song from Titanic,** but both song and singer were lesser talents.
** "My Heart Will Go On." And, yes, I had to look that up, too. God, I'm pathetic. I even listened to the thing to make sure it was the song I was thinking of. People, I torture myself for your enlightenment. And I'm not talking any wussy waterboarding, here, I'm talking listening to freakin' Celine Dion. Thank yous in the form of cash are entirely acceptable.
Update: Why does Adam Lambert have a giant poopy on his shoulder? His song, aside from being less nauseating than "I See You," was so blandly pedestrian as to make me wish for more boy-on-boy smooching and assorted, simulated naughtiness. At least he was interesting when he was being offensive.

Keeping My Buycotts Straight
Apparently, I'm going to need to go out and buy some Ben & Jerry's "Hubby Hubby."* But I'll be doing it from Whole Foods,** if possible.
As a sidenote, does it bug anyone else that the most logical category for a discussion of my food choices ends up being in "politics?" If you were to say that it's a sign of our society and our lives being over-politicized, I wouldn't disagree. Luckily, I'm watching a special edition of So You Think You Can Dance's best moments and enjoying it immensely. Not only is it not political (well, almost entirely apolitical), but I've come to believe that of all of the reality shows and various contests on TV, So You Think You Can Dance has the best talent of the bunch.
Of course, I don't know much about dance, so I could be completely wrong on the subject…
*No, this isn't just an excuse to eat Ben & Jerry's. If that were the case, then I would be grabbing a pint of Mint Chocolate Cookie, which is their most awesome ice cream ever. It just doesn't lend itself to an easy celebration of same sex unions, does it?
** Yes, I know I missed the official buycott moment. But I'm pretty sure they'll be happy to take my money, anyway.

And While We're At It…
Not too many people even remember the Jeremy Piven vehicle, Cupid, so they don't know enough to be cranky about the weak do-over being sold to the public right now. But while we're sending a paltry bit o' traffic to Liberty Girl, let's just say that this is just about as spot on as her rants about personal liberty.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go consider Simon Jester's place in contemporary American society. One nice thing about the Obama administration is that it is encouraging people to revisit some really great literature.

Calling the Geek Hordes
I've just watched Steve Wozniak on Dancing with the Stars--and it was pretty much like my own stumbling dance moves. There wasn't much pretty about it, but the Woz had a great attitude, put forth 100% effort, and looked like he was having a great time. And the entertainment value of having Woz on Dancing with the Stars is undeniable--far more valuable than watching an aging Denise Richards tearing up over imagined offenses--so, geek hordes, call and vote for the big guy.

Please Leave My TV, Whiny Cavemen
I liked the GEICO cavemen. The first series of ads was creative, funny, and memorable.
Then came the TV show, which, if jumping the shark hadn't jumped the shark, we might imagine that the entire concept had leapt well over the circling cartilaginous fish. But that isn't the case: GEICO decided to soldier on past the disappointment, flooding us with another series of ads which have reduced the cavemen to whiny little children who make me want to push GEICO down and kick it in the butt a few times.
Cavemen roll up on their motorcycles. Hot girls waiting for them. They look up and see a GEICO billboard. Cavemen turn around and cry their way home.
Caveman goes to beach with uber-hot girlfriend who proceeds to take off her shirt. Which I enjoy. Caveman looks up and sees a plane pulling a GEICO banner. Caveman petulantly walks back to the car.
And, most confusingly, caveman is playing a tennis match with Billie Jean King. According to BJ and the scoreboard, the caveman is losing--our only indication that we might be wrong is the caveman's confusion. Suddenly the caveman realizes that GEICO is sponsoring the event--a sudden realization that only makes us believe that cavemen really are stupid or how else did he miss the GEICO signs and sponsorship? Whatever, because the result is the same: caveman takes his ball and goes home.
Damn, cavemen aren't only stupid, they are some whiny little babies.
Please take them off of our TVs. We're done with the cavemen.

Harvey Korman, Rest
I just wanted to say this: Harvey Korman was one of the funniest men to ever walk this planet. The work that he did with Mel Brooks was wonderful--Blazing Saddles and History of the World, Part 1 are movies that still set me off in fits of laughter.
But nothing--nothing--this side of Monty Python could set me off like watching Korman and Tim Conway working together. It's sad to think that these two brilliant comedians--with perfect chemistry--will never set foot on a stage again. He was one of the last of a dying breed of comedians and I'm sad to see their time passing.
I'm kicking myself right now, too. I think it was last year that the two came through town on a tour and I decided not to get tickets to see them. Stupid.

Just a Little Random
12 is the Magic Number.
Great series. I hope the next one is just as exciting (and blessed with the same happy ending for Avs fans).
Congratulations to Danica.
MacUpdate Promo looks pretty good.
Oprah is a pusher.
Anyway, where my admiration stops is right at the edge of her social and political commentary--commentary that leans less on thinking and more on feeling. That is doubly so when she's pushing a self-help title of the nature of The Secret. Her new business venture with Eckhart Tolle, though, makes her seem more like a huckster than a reputable businessperson.
Disappointing isn't a big enough word.

This review is from: CM Storm Devastator - LED Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo Bundle (Red Edition)
Pros: Quite honestly, this keyboard and mouse combo blew me away. I stay up late and required a keyboard with a backlight LED so I could play in the dark, and thus I saw this combo and thought it would be perfect. I was right. The keyboard's red led backlight was not too bright to strain my eyes but also was plenty bright enough to let me game in complete darkness. The media center stop, start/pause, back and forward keys worked as soon as I plugged in the keyboard and the volume buttons worked as well. The mouse honestly was a great plus; it has a variable dpi button which is easy to understand and isn't cluttered with a million different macro buttons. The red led accents makes it look very cool and the solid build quality is simply awesome.
Cons: Although I have a few cons, I can't express how much these don't really ruin the keyboard for me. Honestly I am nit picking here, but the spacebar sounds a bit springy, it smudges somewhat easily, and the media center keys do feel a little loose, but that's it.
Other Thoughts: I am completely blown away with the features of this keyboard and mouse, and at the price I would recommend to almost any budget gamer. If you are interested in a closeup look before purchasing, I recommend to search it up on youtube.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Hanns-G HE247DPB Black 23.6" 5ms Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 Active Contrast 40,000,000:1 (1000:1)
Pros: The monitor did hold some beautiful picture quality
Cons: First thing I noticed was the blue pixel in the middle of the screen.
Second thing was I noticed was the monitor turning off randomly from bumping on my desk. Plugged the cable as far as I could, the thing will giggle and fall out without fail.
Third thing is that the speaker quality is not up to par.
Other Thoughts: Put this in a build for a customer of mine, will never use it in another build again.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: XFX Double D FX-775A-ZDP4 Radeon HD 7750 Black Edition 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card
Pros: Looked great. Ran smooth to what i could tell. Quiet.
Cons: 1. Installation was horrendous, having me to manually download drivers and install them as the disk did not detect my GPU on board.
2. Card randomly caused BSOD at the weirdest times.
3. No help from XFX support, they just told me to put it into another computer or buy a new one.
Other Thoughts: Really was hoping to get my socks knocked off from my old 4350. Instead i got a broken card that i have to send back after i used all of my birthday money on. Totally ruined XFX for me.READ FULL REVIEW

MSU-PSU wrapup...
November 27, 2010 - Ray Eckenrode
The headline:
MSU snaps Beaver Stadium hex, shares league title
It was over when:
+ Michigan State tight end Brian Lincthicum snuffed out a furious Penn State fourth-quarter rally by charging forward and putting the clamps on Collin Wagner's onsides kick attempt on its big bounce and after it traveled only six yards. Great clutch play with less than a minute to go.
Plays of the day:
+ Junior tackle Quinn Barham had a terrible third quarter, giving up on a block that resulted in a sack early in the quarter, then getting called for holding a few series later, pinning PSU at its own 7, heading into the wind, field position that eventually yielded Michigan State's third, and biggest, touchdown.
Hot topics:
+ Penn State's defense was weak in the middle again, but the 28 points it held Michigan State to should have been enough to win that game. It was Penn State's offense that just could not put it all together in the first half, moving the ball but short circuiting with procedure penalties and drops and only putting three points on the board.
+ It still looks like the Gator Bowl for the Nits on New Year's Day, matched against either Mississippi State or Florida.
Paralysis by analysis:
+ We don't think the ESPN crew spent enough time talking about Joepa coming back next year. There was a lot of new information to be uncovered there and a lot of things that viewers could learn. In a game like that, you should be prepared with a bunch of inane stats about Joe's longevity and then work them in at the most awkward of moments. As they say on Twitter: *sarcasm*.
+ These words actually came out of Craig James mouth: "That's why Derek Moye is considered one of the all-time best around here."
Zebra hunting:
+ We thought that was one of the better officiated Big Ten games we've seen in awhile. Penn State might have caught a break when Devon Still was called for running into the kicker on his dumb first-half penalty instead of roughing.
And now a word from our sponsors :
+ Dear Applebee's: 1999 called and it wants its Chris Berman commercial back.
+ "You want to be sharp behind the wheel? Take it from a truck driver: Rest often and take Five-Hour Engery." Um, why do we think he only practices half of what he preaches?
Sweet tweets:
@15MinutesBlog: Matt Cooke thinks that was a dumb penalty by Devon Still.
@QBSneak12: MSU obviously watches film, attacking PSU MLB.
@WisconsinRob: This wouldn't happen if Joepa was alive.
@CoryGiger: This isn't the same old Sparty. And it's clearly not the same old Penn State. 5 good opponents, 5 bad losses.
@15MinutesBlog: Penn State will be older, smarter and better next year, but how will they get faster?
We were right:
+ We expected a crowd in the 90k vicinity and Penn State's students held up their part of the bargain, staying away (actually, on break) in droves.
We were wrong:
+ We expected PSU to win another shootout, but it became apparent early that Penn State's offense wouldn't be up to the task, shooting itself in the foot numerous times on early promising drives.
