"Borderlands" coming to Mac next month
My lovely little Mac is turning into more of a gaming machine every day, thanks to so many companies actually making games for it. The latest? A Game-of-the-Year edition of Borderlands is coming (including every bit of the DLC that has been released), thanks to Feral Interactive. If you're not on an Intel machine running Snow Leopard, you're pretty much out of luck, but the other minimum requirements are pretty easy to meet these days. As of now, we don't know if there'll be cross-platform multiplayer, or even if this will be available on Steam (Oh, I do hope so!), but those are answers we might have to wait for. The game releases on December 3 for $49.95 in the United States. FollowRead more →By Tiffany Nevin in News 4 Comments »
Next series to go full LEGO is "Pirates of the Caribbean"
It's time for your LEGO set to learn how to swashbuckle – in video game form, anyway. Traveler's Tales announced today that the next series to get the full LEGO treatment is Disney's "Pirates of the Caribbean." The game will cover all four Pirates films, including the installment out next year, On Stranger Tides. Not-so-coincidentally, the game's release will occur around the time of the film's (May 2011). "Pirates of the Caribbean is a globally successful franchise based in action, adventure and humor perfectly suited for a LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game adaptation," said Graham Hopper, executive vice president and general manager, Disney Interactive Studios. "Combining the excitement of playing as Jack Sparrow and other recognizable characters from the franchise will make the game fun for players of all ages throughout the world." Hopefully it works out as well as the other film-to-LEGO adaptations. FollowRead more →By Tiffany Nevin in News No comments yet
"nail'd" achievement list and pre-order bonus detailed
Y'know, normally when we see lists of achievements out there in the wild before a game's release, it's because someone snuck around and got into places they shouldn't. Not today, though. These were just given to us. So now you can judge for youself whether or not you want to undertake some of these racing tasks. (The full list is below the rest of this article.) In addition, today we also found out about a special GameStop pre-order bonus for getting the game (here are links to 360 and PS3 versions) – a special, snazzy nail'd shirt that is surprisingly fashionable. I don't know if I'd ever wear one, but I'm also a lady. I don't do faux bloodspatter. Keep in mind that the shirts come only with online pre-orders that get shipped to your house. Don't go arranging any in-store pickups, or you're probably out of luck, okay? It'llRead more →By Tiffany Nevin in News No comments yet

We've spent a long time poking, prodding and stress-testing these three operating systems, but it's still remarkably difficult to pick the outright best of Windows XP and Vista. XP is mature, still current enough to be compatible with most recent hardware and software, and a good all-round performer. But Vista fights back with a much better feature-set, especially in key areas such as security and error handling. On balance, we prefer XP for basic systems and would move to Vista only as hardware needs demanded – but that's a fine line to tread.
The good news is that you won't have to spend long agonising over the whole 'XP or Vista?' decision, because Windows 7 generally outdoes them both. Microsoft really does appear to have learned its hard-taught lessons and, while it hasn't fixed everything, the latest incarnation of Windows does show significant improvements over its predecessor – impressive for a pre-release version. The finished Windows 7 can only be better, and it should finally give long-standing XP fans a reason to upgrade.

He's smiling and wagging and able to eat and drink and go around with the other dogs.
He's not cured, of course, but the pill Vetmedin has made his life easier.
The day CG brought him home from the vet, Max was in pain. He was breathing shallowly and swiftly, and he would sit with his neck stretched out like he was trying to get more air in his lungs.
I didn't get much sleep that night, watching him breathe and wondering if he was going to make it.
The next day Max popped back into his regular life, astonishing us.
He is a happy boy again, and we are happy.
I decided not to interfere in his relations with the other three dogs, though. Seems like I just make things worse.
Max was kneading his precious blanket in the living room, when May-May ran in, flying low. She saw how much Max was enjoying himself, so she promptly snatched his blanket away from him.
"May-May!" I yelled. "Don't do that."
She leaped back and ran into Max, flipping him in the air.
He landed safely, only giving one weak little cough, and scrambled to rescue his blanket.
May-May went off to torment another dog and I washed my hands of being Maxie's keeper.

And while we're making progress, we are still a long way from the finish line. You see, I agree with President Obama?s Education Secretary Arne Duncan, who said "If your students keep being allowed to leave third and fourth grade without being able to read, you?re not doing them any favors."
Reading enables a child to chase his or her dreams. I want to introduce you to a young boy named Jamal Witter. Jamal is a first grader who wrote a book for a special project through the Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce?s reading program. The reason I invited him is because of one key passage that Jamal wrote in that book. Jamal, will you please read it?
(Jamal will read the passage from his book)
Thank you, Jamal. And he's right. Reading paves the way for success.
We must intervene early and do all we can to help struggling students. But I believe if a child is still unable to read by the third grade, after all those interventions, then it?s far more compassionate to have that child repeat that level - to get them up to speed - than to simply pass them onto the next grade and make them four times more likely to become a drop-out.
There have been many compromises made to this bill, including more funding for intervention and increasing parental involvement. It?s been sponsored by Democrats and passed by both chambers. And you heard what the Obama administration said. So let?s stand together and pass this bill.
With last year's "New Mexico Reads to Lead" investment, we hired reading coaches and were able to train nearly 2 thousand educators in methods proven to produce better readers. This year I propose we expand the "New Mexico Reads to Lead" program from $8.5 million to $13.5 million.
Our focus is on struggling schools - on offering a hand-up to those who need help. That?s why I'm proposing $4.7 million in school turnaround programs to close the gap between highperforming schools and schools that are struggling.
As we improve academic performance in New Mexico, we cannot overlook the crucial role that New Mexico?s teachers and other school leaders play in this effort. One of the greatest gifts a teacher can give a child is hope, a belief that the child can do anything and be anyone.
I want to hold up some powerful examples of the very best our state has to offer - educators like those at Anthony Elementary School, a school where nearly all of the students come from low income families and speak English as a second language. These kids face many challenges.
Some don't expect them to succeed, because of these challenges. But the teachers at this school sent them a very different message. They raised expectations and said no more excuses. They believe in these kids. They help these kids believe in themselves.
Because of the dedication of the teachers, principal, and other staff at Anthony Elementary, this school - a school with 100% on free and reduced lunch - is not in the top half of our schools. It's not in the top third. Instead, out of 831 schools, this elementary school is ranked 5th in the entire state.
And we have with us today several teachers, school leaders, and kids from Anthony. Let?s welcome Principal Linda Perez, second grade teacher Orlanda Palomares, sixth grade teacher Leticia Gonzales, and students Clarissa, Bryan, Kayla, Diego, and Alex. Thank you for all that you are achieving.
We need to replicate success like this. That is why I am requesting we dedicate $11.3 million to recruit, retain, and reward our best educators.
I want school districts to know and I want parents to know that I have heard their calls for more math and science teachers in New Mexico schools, particularly in low-income areas. We have an exciting initiative to dedicate $2 million to recruit more math and science teachers, to move scientists and engineers to the classroom and to entice college graduates through loan forgiveness programs. Let's make sure every child in New Mexico has the benefit of great math and science teachers.
Reform in education should have no political party label. It?s not about party or politics. It's about having the courage to challenge the status quo, to put student achievement and nothing else at the very top of our list of concerns.In addition to moving our economy forward and better educating our kids, we must also ensure the safety of our communities.
We need to improve our Amber Alert system so that we can issue an alert whenever a New Mexico child is abducted and police believe the child is in danger, even when the suspect is a family member.
And we must improve our ability to protect children from abusive homes by allowing case workers to conduct emergency background checks through NCIC.
We need to increase penalties for child abuse and expand Brianna's law to cover all children, not just those under the age of 12.
And, of course, I am hopeful that the Legislature will enact the recommendation of the 9/11 commission, the position of nearly every other state in America, and the opinion of a vast majority of New Mexicans that we stop being a magnet for human trafficking, fraud and crime rings. I'm asking the Legislature to finally repeal the law that gives driver's licenses to illegal immigrants.
And I know, when it comes to public safety, New Mexicans are as fed up as I am about our problem with repeat drunk drivers. Every time there is another fatal accident caused by someone who has racked up multiple DWIs, New Mexicans ask themselves, why are they still on the road?
I'm asking the legislature to stiffen the penalties for repeat drunk drivers, making DWIs count when sentencing habitual offenders of other crimes. And if a drunk driver doesn't get the message after a first conviction, we should seize their vehicle – their deadly weapon – the second time around. This year, we need to close the loopholes that allow so many DWI offenders to keep their licenses after an arrest. New Mexico?s problem with repeat drunk drivers is serious and it?s time we take a stand.
When we talk about leveling the playing field, one of the best ways to ensure the playing field is not unfairly tilted toward the connected and the powerful is to continue rooting out corruption.
We?ve already made strong progress. State government is now barred from contracting with companies involved in corruption. My appointees are barred from lobbying state government for two years after serving in my administration. And last year, in a bi-partisan manner, we passed a law that allows judges to take the pensions away from convicted corrupt officials.
This year I propose that we continue bolstering New Mexico's anti-corruption laws. If a public official is convicted of corruption, they should be forced to resign immediately. If they have money in their campaign war chests, those funds should not be used as their own personal slush fund. They should be returned to the taxpayer's general fund. And when the state goes to court to recover our taxpayer money from a corrupt public official, taxpayers should not be forced to foot the bill for the corrupt official's defense.

WhyReef - Lifestyle
The crown-of-thorns sea star is an echinoderm, which means "spiny skin." Hiding itself in crevices in the reef during the day, this starfish likes to crawl around on the reef in huge groups of 20-200 individuals. It can move around easily using its muscular tube feet, which it also uses to collect food. At the end of each of its arms it has an eyespot. It cannot see shapes or colors with its eyespots, but it can see changes between light and dark.

The Armed Services YMCA, Twentynine Palms partnered up with Active Duty and civilian volunteers from Twentynine Palms, the Mojave Desert Land Trust, and the Morongo Basin Transit Authority to celebrate Earth Day, with a clean up of a section of preserved land known as the Gateway Parcel, Section 33. Nearly 120 Active Duty Marines and Sailors, family members, and civilian community members attended the event on Saturday, April 19th, 2014. Volunteers at the event worked on the Gateway Parcel from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM removing trash and debris under the guidance of Mojave Desert Land Trust.
The partnership between the ASY and the Mojave Desert Land Trust on this Earth Day event is now in its second year. The event has grown enormously since last year to include a new partnership with the Morongo Basin Transit Authority. The MBTA graciously provided transportation for Active Duty volunteers from the Combat Center. The ASY hopes to continue expanding community outreach on this event for years to come.
The Gateway Parcel, which volunteers worked to clean this year, provides visitors to Joshua Tree National Park with iconic views of the Joshua Tree entry point. It was acquired by the MDLT in partnership with the Twentynine Palms Marine Corps base in 2012 and now provides a haven for wildlife and native plants and preserves valuable air space for Marine Corps training operations. Given the ASY's focus on social responsibility, the partnership with MDLT on this event was a natural one. Environmental responsibility and awareness is an important aspect of social responsibility, especially in our fragile desert ecosystem. The opportunity to raise awareness of the unique landscape we live in and how important it is to protect it was one the ASY could not pass up.

Hello, maybe you could help me I printed out the insructions to follow Stephen on the shawl and everything was great but after the last rows he shows you how to do the MIL and MIR in the instructions say to Knit all sts he doesn't show that and he doesn't show how to do those garter stitches he says he did to spice it up and to give some texture .. can you please tell me what you did thanks?
Hi, I just followed Stephen's instructions. He has us alternate knit and purl rows (with increases) four times. Then we knit two rows together to give us the texture. I just basically followed this formula until I almost ran out of yarn and then started the border. The border is just knitting all the rows (with the increases). I think I did either 8 or 10 rows of knitting until BO. I'm sorry it took me so long to check back, but I hope this helps.
Hola, how are you? thank you so much for writing back I was so glad to hear from somebody...LOL...well I did get it but the only thing I did different was that I only did one knit instead of doing two for texture...and I made mine twice as big to keep me cozy ...I'll post a picture of mine as soon as I finish...luv your colors ...tootles

Recent research has identified non-coding DNA sequences that are found in nearly all plants and appear to have roles in basic processes such as tissue and organ development, response to hormones, and regulation of gene expression.

Researchers report they can generate human motor neurons from stem cells much more quickly and efficiently than previous methods allowed. The finding will aid efforts to model human motor neuron development, and to understand and treat spinal cord injuries and motor neuron diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

The reason why some animals can regenerate tissues after severe organ loss or amputation while others, such as humans, cannot renew some structures has always intrigued scientists. In a new study, researchers show, for the first time, that zebrafish regenerates its caudal fin by a process that involves a specific channel in the cell membrane, called V-ATPase, that pumps hydrogen ions, generating an electrical current.

The key is the overexpression of the ATHB25 gene. This gene encodes a protein that regulates gene expression, producing a new mutant that gives the seed new properties. Researchers have proven that this mutant has more gibberellin - the hormone that promotes plant growth - which means the seed coat is reinforced as well.

The St. Louis Cardinals will have to make do without All-Star second baseman Matt Carpenter for an extended period. They've struggled plenty even with Carpenter in the lineup.
Carpenter was placed on the 15-day disabled list on Thursday with a strained right oblique, and there's no set timetable for his return.
Manager Mike Matheny said he delivered the "sermon" that this isn't a rehab that can be rushed. He recalled having the same injury as a player and disregarding medical advice, setting him back longer. The Cardinals were 3-5 and trying to avoid a four-game sweep by the Pirates in the finale of a nine-game homestand.

Sean Duffy didn't even hear the warning crack! of the tree branch breaking.
But when it fell just behind where he was clearing the snow at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education, the facilities manager ran inside for another piece of equipment: A hard hat.
Not long after, the Roxborough center posted a notice on its door and its website: Trails closed.
Even as temperatures warm and snows melt, the region's nature centers and others with big tracts of woods are still dealing with the tree carnage.
They expect to be doing it for quite a while, consuming valuable manpower and ravaging budgets.

Gardnerville resident Jon Eugene McElhaney faces sentencing today in connection with the Nov. 6 accident that resulted in the death of Smith Valley artist Reiko Hervin.
McElhaney faces up to 20 years in prison after he pleaded guilty in August to driving under the influence of an intoxicating liquor resulting in death or substantial bodily harm. His preliminary breath test was .131, more than the legal limit of .08 for driving.
Hervin's family is expected to attend today's sentencing.
A plea agreement with the district attorney's office calls for a recommended sentence of 3-8 years, but District Judge Dave Gamble is free to sentence McElhaney to the maximum. He is ineligible for probation.
McElhaney tearfully described the accident, describing his efforts to free Hervin from her vehicle. The 51-year-old died of her injuries Nov. 30 at Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno.
McElhaney said he was driving his pickup and towing his father's disabled Jeep on a borrowed trailer. When he got to the top of State Route 208, he said the trailer started to roll out of control, resulting in a collision with Hervin's vehicle in the oncoming lane.
McElhaney said his father's Jeep broke down and he borrowed the trailer which had been used to bring all-terrain vehicles to the site.
According to the criminal complaint, McElhaney failed to comply with Nevada law regarding loading and securing vehicles and breakaway brakes which resulted in the trailer dislodging.
McElhaney is out of custody on $15,637 bail, and under the supervision of the Department of Alternative Sentencing.
He was ordered to abstain from alcohol and controlled substances and may not drive.

Yes, but only due to the small heat sink underneath it. If you can get a hold of the sink from a 1.1 - 1.6, which are regular sized, you could swap the heat sinks and rid yourself of the need for this fan.

George Whitfield Jr. has had many "fork-in-the-road moments," and has followed his heart to get to where he is now.
Whitfield served as Tiffin University's second Good Morning World Lecture speaker Thursday morning at Camden Falls Reception Hall, 2460 S. SR 231.
Whitfield is a 2001 Tiffin University graduate. He presented "Quarterback Engineering." Whitfield, a former college and arena league quarterback, now lives in San Diego, where he runs his quarterback training academy firm, Whitfield Athletix.
Article Photos
George Whitfield Jr. speaks at Tiffin University's "Good Morning World" Breakfast Lecture series Thursday.
He works mostly with middle school and high school students, training them about the quarterback position and helping them to develop skills from the very basic levels to complex levels using training methods used by NFL quarterbacks, according to a release provided by the university.
Whitfield said he was fascinated with football at a young age. He was introduced to the game by his father, George Whitfield Sr., who played football for Wichita State in the early 1970s.
After graduating from TU, Whitfield worked as a graduate assistant with the university of Iowa Hawkeyes. From there, he moved to San Diego for more training. While in San Diego, he wanted to study law. A marketing job changed all that. Upon seeing his resume, a fourth-grader wanted Whitfield to coach him to become a good quarterback. Whitfield decided to take the opportunity and began to get calls from parents and teams to coach players, he said.
"There is nothing like working with someone that wants to do something so badly," Whitfield said. "It's great to see players walk off better than they walked on."
When he is working with players, he said he is not just training the mechanics of the game, but training confidence.
"I want to embolden them with 'I can,'" he said.
Whitfield uses an array of techniques to train athletes, including going to the beach to train in the sand and water.
"Sometimes you have to think outside of the box to be able to come back in and be better," Whitfield said.
He spoke on three ideas that he got his inspiration from:
Learn from observing someone else.
Recognize how something impacts you directly.
"Hot-wire." That is to take responsibility for their career and decide where they want to go, he said.
One of Whitfield's students was Johnny Manziel, 2012 winner of the Heisman Trophy.
Manziel had been third-string for Texas A&M University. While working with Whitfield, he studied the other players and would double back to practice on his own.
"He knew where he was going, and he said he just needed to give me the tools to get there," Whitfield said.
Whitfield said when he reached a "fork-in-the-road" moments, he always talked to his mother or father. He said his father would always ask him, "Are you going to go all in?"
Whitfield said his father would tell him if you are going to go in a direction, you have to go all in. You can't just take a U-turn out of it.
"If you're going to do it, you have to go all in. Follow your heart," Whitfield said.
The next speaker in the lecture series is to be 13 ABC's Jay Berschback Feb. 20 and representatives from the Ohio Innocence Project.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - The nights in Belgrade, Jelena Veljic said, are owned by the terrifying sound and concussion of bombs falling on her neighborhood.
"The first night the bombing started, my family had to go to a shelter," she said. "Our home has many stories and is not safe in bombing."
Veljic, 15, has escaped war's uncertainty and landed in Albuquerque, where she began a new life this week as a foreign-exchange student at Sandia Preparatory School.
For a girl whose letter of acceptance to Sandia Prep was mailed just 12 days before NATO bombs began falling near her home in downtown Belgrade, the journey from war to peace has been almost surreal.
Veljic got her visa April 20. She left Budapest, Hungary, last Thursday. She finally arrived in Albuquerque on Friday and started classes at Sandia Prep on Monday morning.
Until last week, Veljic was at ground zero in the air war between NATO forces and the Serbian military headed by Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic.
She lived with her mother and father, Mladen and Spomenka Veljic, in a high-rise building that sits squarely in downtown Belgrade. Nearby is her father's office, where he went to work daily until NATO targeted that building.
Veljic said communist policies that settled Albanians in Kosovo, not Milosevic, are to blame for the war. Kosovo, Veljic said, is much more than just an occupied province. It is a region that is vital to the Serbian national image.
"The old people won't go out or give up Kosovo. It's in the heart; nobody can give it up," she said.
For the next two years, the exhaustion and destruction of war will be but a memory for Veljic.
While she studies at Sandia Prep, Veljic will live with her host family, Dr. James Tryon and Dr. Teresa Balcomb and their children, Elyce and Connor, who also attend the school.
"I want to learn English, and be able to write poetry and compose piano music," she said.
Veljic speaks some English and is already a published poet in her native Serbian language. She also is an accomplished pianist and has composed two pieces of music.
Still, her odyssey to the United States and Albuquerque was long and complex.
She was thwarted in an attempt to get a visa when the U.S. Embassy in Belgrade closed after the NATO bombing began. Veljic and her mother then traveled to Budapest, where she stood in line with hundreds of others who were trying to leave.
Like many others that day, Veljic was unsuccessful.
"She was treated like a refugee, and then they denied her visa," said Jan Randall, the foreign-student liaison at Sandia Prep.
After volleys of communication between Sandia Prep, the U.S. Embassy and U.S. Rep. Heather Wilson's office - and even a call to U.S. Sen. Jesse Helms, a North Carolina Republican - the visas finally were issued.

THERE ARE 4,924 MEMBERS OF THE ACADEMY OF MOTION Picture Arts and Sciences. Rodney Dangerfield, stand-up schlemiel, will not be member No. 4,925. It isn't that he hasn't done enough movie work: Only three major roles are required before an actor can try to get into the Academy, and Dangerfield, star of Caddyshack, Easy Money and Back to School, has eight. But Dangerfield, 74, whose bid for membership was submitted last November, has been nixed, according to his rejection letter, for failing to execute "enough of the kinds of roles that allow a performer to demonstrate the mastery of his craft." The letter was signed by Roddy McDowall, 66, chairman of the Academy's actors' branch and star of everything from How Green Was My Valley to Conquest of the Planet of the Apes.
Officially, the Academy's internal workings are secret, as is its roster. Some names are known, including such high achievers as Clint Eastwood, Barbra Streisand and even Marlon Brando, who rejected his 1972 Oscar for The Godfather. Yet the Academy, in its inscrutable wisdom, has also opened its arms to Don Rickles (Innocent Blood), comic Red Skelton (Public Pigeon No. 1) and restaurateur-actor Nicky Blair (Viva Las Vegas). Why not Rodney?
True, indignation over who gets admitted is a permanent part of the Hollywood scene. The admission process usually begins, says Hollywood publicist Edward Lozzi, "with an actor saying, 'What's that jerk doing in the Academy? I want the prestige.' " Yet, says Variety editor (and member) Peter Bart, "I got calls from very prominent people, many of them in the Academy, outraged" by the snub. One of them, he notes, was Oscar-winning director William Friedkin (The French Connection). Maybe the Academy was scared off by Dangerfield's intense, often ugly humor. "They don't go for cutting-edge stuff," says Oliver Stone, who cast him as a psychopathic papa in Natural Bom Killers. "They're always about 20 years behind the times."
The Academy won't explain its decision, except to note that of 140 wannabes last year, a mere 36 were accepted. Which is no consolation to Dangerfield. "I'm locked into an image," he complained with customary aggrieved desperation. "The nobody."

"Originally I thought one of the cheerleaders, one of the male cheerleaders had a mic to get the crowd going - and had dropped that mic because the speaker was right behind me. I thought it was just a boom from the microphone." HE SOON REALIZED IT WASN'T THE MICROPHONE. THE BOOM WENT OFF WITH A LITTLE LESS THAN SEVEN MINUTES TO GO IN THE FIRST QUARTER WHEN LOUISIANA- LAYFAYETTE WAS DRIVING TOWARD THE NORTH ENDZONE. GORE WAS SHOOTING THE GAME FOR THE UNIVERSITY T-V STATION WHEN IT HAPPENED. "The guy dropped the canister and grabbed the back of his hamstring like he had just been shot in the back of the leg and just fell straight to the ground." PARAMEDICS WERE JUST AROUND THE CORNER AND CAME TO HELP THE STUDENT FAST. "The paramedics were luckily right there in that corner anyways. That's where they were stationed. As soon as the sound went off and the explosion happened - they were there within 10-20 seconds." THAT CORNER IS RIGHT NEXT TO THE STUDENT SECTION. GORE SAYS MOST PEOPLE HEARD AND SAW WHAT HAPPENEDTONIGHT UNIVERSITY OFFICALS SAY THEY'RE INVESTIGATING WHAT HAPPENED. "The whole student section got quiet and was looking at him.

Received the following email from Don S.:
I am surprised that no one seems to be fretting over the fact that since the All-Star Break, Milledge has been the Mets hottest player, a guy who provided a much needed spark and was arguably responsible for 4-5 wins, yet we don't see him at least platooning with a struggling Shawn Green or a birttle Moises Alou on one of the corners. His offense is much needed, and his defense is a huge upgrade over either of thoise statues in the corners.
I wasn't a huge Milledge fan, especially with his off the field stuff, but
any word on why Willie is not going with his usual "play the hot hand" line
of thinking with regards to Milledge.
Anyone have any guesses? My theory is that Randolph feels more safe with a veteran like Green or Marlon Anderson than Milledge, who is undoubtedly more talented but also seems far more likely to miss a cutoff man or make a dangerous baserunning miscue at the wrong time. But I really have no idea.

Store Bought No More: 13 Easy Homemade Valentine's Day Cards
It's undeniable: Valentine's Day is definitely a kid-favorite holiday. A constant stream of candy at school, extra love and heart-shaped food at home--what's not to love? Luckily, you don't have to break the bank or become a master crafter to give your little one a memorable day. You can create a new twist on the traditional old classroom cards with these clever ideas from around the web. If you're not a crafting queen and the idea of hot glue gives you hives, don't worry--lots of these options offer convenient printable PDFs to guide you, plus you can enlist the kiddos to help.
This Valentine's Day will you be going store bought or homemade?
I have to make 11 with my 5yo tonight for his class tomorrow and then my 10yo needs 20+ for his class party on Thursday. FUN! NOT! I cheated and bought store ones this year. I love so many of the ideas I've found though.

Spielberg buys 'Bully Pulpit'
Steven Spielberg and Doris Kearns Goodwin are reteaming after their Oscar-winning collaboration on "Lincoln."
Spielberg announced that his company, DreamWorks, has acquired the film rights to Goodwin's upcoming "The Bully Pulpit: Theodore Roosevelt, William Taft and the Golden Age of Journalism." In 2012, Spielberg released his acclaimed adaption of Goodwin's "Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln."
Spielberg said that Goodwin has "once again given us the best seats in the house where we can watch two dynamic American personalities in a battle for power and friendship."
The 900-page book chronicles the friendship and then political rivalry of the two Republican leaders, both American presidents of the Progressive Era.
Goodman to honor
World War II vets
Actor John Goodman plans to give something back to the men and women who fought in World War II.
On Veterans Day, Goodman will take a break from producing a sitcom in development for some orchestral narration as part of the Veterans Day "Honoring our Heroes" concert at the National World War II Museum.
The Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra and the museum are producing the concert, which features the world premiere of composer Jake Runestad's "Dreams of the Fallen" -- a setting of poems by an Army veteran about the war in Iraq.
Goodman narrates Aaron Copland's "Lincoln Portrait" for the concert.
Kutcher to pitch
Lenovo products
Computer-maker Lenovo has hired tech-savvy actor Ashton Kutcher to help design and pitch its latest line of tablets, dubbing the Hollywood star a "product engineer" who can bring his ideas along with his image.
It's the latest tech foray for the "Two and a Half Men" performer who recently starred in a biopic about innovative giant Steve Jobs and has invested venture capital in more than a dozen Silicon Valley startups.
Kutcher -- who in recent years has appeared in ads for snack chips and cameras -- said of Lenovo, "Entrepreneurship is part of their DNA, and I couldn't ask for a better fit."
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Netflix to show reruns
of Showtime's 'Dexter'
Netflix has struck a deal for reruns of the Showtime series "Dexter," which ended its run in September.
The sale is somewhat unique because pay-TV channels are often reluctant to sell their shows to another pay service. HBO, for example, does not sell its shows to Netflix.
Under the terms of the deal, Showtime will still be able to telecast episodes of "Dexter," starring Michael C. Hall, on its network as well as make the show available on its digital platform Showtime Anytime.
CBS, which owns Showtime, is also selling reruns of "Dexter" to a basic cable network.
Megyn Kelly's show
soars in latest ratings
Just one month after taking over her new 9 p.m. time slot at Fox News Channel, Megyn Kelly has the No. 2 show on cable news.
"The Kelly File" averaged 2.2 million total viewers for October, behind only "The O'Reilly Factor" (2.8 million), according to Nielsen.
Kelly, a longtime anchor for Fox News, took over the 9 p.m. slot from Sean Hannity, who moved to 10 p.m. as part of a broader network shake-up. Bill O'Reilly remained in place at 8 p.m. Kelly has already improved on Hannity's numbers
Fox News still has a commanding lead in cable news, averaging 1.9 million total viewers in prime time. MSNBC is No. 2 with 780,000, while CNN is third with 525,000.
Bob Barker to get
90th birthday party
"The Price is Right" is planning a milestone birthday celebration for former host Bob Barker.
Barker will celebrate his 90th birthday with an appearance on CBS' game show in December. He retired as host in 2007 after 35 years with "The Price is Right."
The show also will pay tribute to Barker's longtime animal activism by featuring pet adoptions during the week of Dec. 9-13.
Barker will be on "The Price is Right" on his birthday, Dec. 12, and will present a special showcase to mark the occasion.
Claire Danes to host
Nobel Prize concert
Claire Danes has been tapped to host the 20th anniversary Nobel Peace Prize concert in December.
The Emmy-winning "Homeland" actress will host the Dec. 11 event in Oslo, Norway.
The concert will celebrate the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, which was awarded the prestigious honor earlier this month.
The Nobel Peace Prize concert typically attracts top celebrities. Past luminaries have included Paul McCartney, Rihanna and Tony Bennett. The lineup for this year's concert has yet to be announced.
'Potter' star Radcliffe
to play Sebastian Coe
"Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe has signed to play British Olympic runner Sebastian Coe in a movie about rivalries on the running track.
"Gold" will tell the story of the tense rivalry between Coe and fellow middle distance runner Steve Ovett in the run-up to the 1980 Moscow Olympics, where Ovett won the 800 meters and Coe took the 1,500 meters.
Filming is expected to begin in April 2014.

A 21-year-old Boothwyn man was convicted of aggravated assault yesterday for stabbing the father of his fiancee after she called off their wedding plans. At the same time, a Delaware County jury acquitted Sean Patrick Cape of attempted homicide.
Cape, on whose behalf fiancee Andrea Rokos testified during the two-day trial, told the jury that he had not meant to harm James Rokos of Wallingford but wanted to scare him because he believed he had ruined his life.
Assistant District Attorney John F.X. Reilly had argued that when Cape left his house May 2, ``he had killing on his mind. He was thinking about killing himself. Then he saw Jim Rokos - the guy who ruined his life.''

In addition, metal eyeglasses are virtually indestructible - strong, flexible and corrosion resistant. The bold colour blue is the perfect choice for self-confident personalities. With this colour you quickly become the centre of attention.

In your weekend TV Picks, boob-tube laughs are celebrated, "Breaking Bad" has a particularly ominous-sounding episode, and we take a look at two hours of fall TV packed with big shows.
Up first, let's look at the 8 and 9 p.m. hours planned by the broadcast networks in the fall on Fridays and Sundays (because, again, no one programs for Saturdays):
- ABC: Following its early sitcoms, the Alphabet Network sticks with the tried-and-true here: "Shark Tank," returning for its fifth season on Sept. 20, and "20/20," returning for its 36th season on Sept. 6.
- CBS: "Hawaii Five-O" returns for its fourth season Sept. 27 with several guest stars in the offing: Chi McBride, Darryl Hannah, Tim Daly, Melanie Griffith, Jorge Garcia and Nick Jonas. "Blue Bloods" also returns for a fourth season Sept. 27 with Marissa Ramirez replacing Jennifer Esposito and a season-premiere focusing on the search for a cop killer.
- NBC: The Peacock Network will go full bore after monster fans in the fall, with the returning "Grimm" coming back Oct. 25 for a third season, and the new "Dracula" debuting the same night. "Grimm" saw its audiences grow last year after being relegated to a time slot most networks don't bother to expend much programming muscle on, so it's getting rewarded by staying put and being used as a launching pad. I'm hoping, though, that "Dracula" exhibits a little more of the lightness of touch that I like in "Grimm" and haven't seen from a cursory watch of its first episode. There's an interesting twist to the mythos at the end of the first episode, but otherwise, it's a fairly standard retelling, with a good performance by Thomas Kretschmann as Van Helsing and a pretty performance by Jonathan Rhys Meyers as the titular vamp.
- ABC: "Revenge" is getting some revamping behind the scenes before its third-season premiere Sept. 29, with a new showrunner stepping in for creator Mike Kelley, promising a less complicated, sexier story. Could help -- and something needed to happen, for sure. Following that is the limited-run "Betrayal," featuring lots of pretty people (Stuart Townsend, Hannah Ware and others) having lots of adulterous sex. It's steamy, sure, but the first episode needs a little more to goose this up to a watchable level.
- CBS: Though Alicia and Cary (Julianna Margulies and Matt Czuchry) agreed at the end of last season of "The Good Wife" to break off and form their own firm, the fifth season (which returns Sept. 29) doesn't start there. In fact, they're still working for Will and Diane (Josh Charles and Christine Baranski). But once they pull the trigger, look for a real civil war. Following that is the sixth-season debut of "The Mentalist," which promises to unmask its recurring villain, Red John.
- NBC: Sunday Night Football continues, beginning Sept. 8.
- FOX: "Family Guy" and "American Dad" return for seasons 12 and nine, respectively. I can't imagine that much will change for either.
As for this weekend:
- "America's Next Top Model" (8 p.m. on The CW, cable channel 11): The models try out as fashion correspondents with the help of Perez Hilton. There should be Geneva accords for reality shows, I wear.
- "Continuum" (9 p.m. on Syfy, cable channel 59): The second season wraps with Kiera (Rachel Nichols) trying to save both Alex (Erik Knudsen) and her chance to make it back to her home time.
- "Doctor Who: The Doctors Revisited" (7 p.m. on BBC America, cable channel 317): Get to know the eighth doctor, Paul McGann -- possibly the least known of all the doctors, given that he only appeared on TV in one project, a 1996 TV movie that aired stateside on FOX to dismal ratings.
- "Do No Harm" (8 p.m. on NBC, cable channel 5): The flop Jekyll/Hyde riff airs its final, back-to-back episodes.
- "ABC Fall Preview Special Presented by The Chew" (6 p.m. on ABC, cable channel 8): The daytime talk hosts look ahead to the new season.
- "Big Brother" (7 p.m. on CBS, cable channel 12): So the horrid Aaryn did get eliminated this week, and in her exit interview with Julie Chen, blamed growing up in Texas for her alleged sense of humor. Charming. Because all people in Texas use racial, gender and sexual-orientation stereotypes in place of actual wit. Sure. Good riddance.
- "Breaking Bad" (8 p.m. on AMC, cable channel 38): This episode is entitled "Rabid Dog." You know what you do with one of those, right? You put them down. ... Yikes.
- "TV's Funniest of the Funniest: A Paley Center for Media Special" (8 p.m. on NBC, cable channel 5): Take a look at some of the most humorous sitcoms and more throughout TV history. Good counterprogramming against "Breaking Bad," huh?
- "The Great Food Truck Race" (8 p.m. on Food Network, cable channel 65): The truckers head to Idaho to face potato-themed challenges.
- "MDA Show of Strength Telethon" (8 p.m. on ABC): This successor to the long-lived Jerry Lewis telethons gets a new network home in its second year.
So, what are you watching?
