Safety prospect Myer Krah holds no offers yet, but he says that could change really soon. "I visited North Carolina State last week, and I also went to Duke. I think Duke is really close to offering," Krah said. Virginia and Georgia Tech are two other schools that he says he keeps in regular contact with.
On Wednesday, Krah participated in a Georgia Tech skills camp with his brother and some other teammates. "I had a whole lot of fun, and we did a whole lot of work," he said. "I've been to Georgia Tech three or four times already and I keep in touch with Coach (Charles) Kelly and Coach (Andy) McCollum and Coach (Todd) Spencer. This time was cool though because when we had a break in the camp, we got to tour around the actual campus."
During the actual camp, Krah said that they did a lot of one-on-ones and mostly played in man coverage. He really liked that. He also really enjoyed getting some time with defensive backs coach Charles Kelly. "Coach Kelly was giving me some details to work on. This camp was much more personal than the others," he said. "Coach Kelly was saying things throughout the camp, that I am really close right now to an offer. Coach McCollum also said I did really well for myself today."
Krah is being recruited by some schools as a cornerback and some schools as a safety. It looks as though most schools want to him to add weight in college and be a safety. He's already at a solid 185 lbs. For his high school team, he will line up at safety most of the time this year, sometimes moving over to corner or coming up like a linebacker. He also will get a chance to return some kicks.
There is much more going on this summer in Krah's search to get noticed and earn some scholarship offers. He and his brother are trying to get their names out there and will be headed to East Carolina this weekend then to NC State this Sunday. He will also be going next week to North Carolina. "I also will try to hit Wake Forest and Virginia. I'm for sure going to South Florida this month."
The most important thing in football for Myer since he's played pee-wee ball is that he's always had approachable coaches who cared. He says this is the most important thing he is looking at which will help separate the school he chooses to attend. "Just that and being comfortable there, and learning the style of the program." For now, he doesn't think about when he wants to end his recruitment. It really is just starting to take off it seems and he will be continuing this month to work as hard as possible to earn those offers.

RATINGS: 96 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.61/5 SEASONAL: Special IBU: 117 EST. CALORIES: 327 ABV: 10.9%
R&D Series. In the Ninkasi tradition, this barley wine is hopped to high heaven using more than 16 pounds per barrel! Critical Hits rich, malty expression is balanced by 16 varieties of hops that linger on the palate. Its high gravity nature warms the cheeks and soul. Critical Hit does maximum damage, so you might have to roll to save if you take this ale for granted!
Massive citrus, earthy, resinous, and grassy hop flavor is balanced with the melanoidin complexity of port and sherry notes, creating a powerful and warming taste experience. Big citrus, earthy, grassy, and pine hop aroma with port and sherry notes mingle in this beer conditioned for over a year. Aggressive bitterness dominates up front with a large array of hop flavor spanning citrus, earthy, resinous, grassy and dank. Subtle caramel and melanoidin compounds oxidize (in a good way) to create the port and sherry notes that are a trademark to these extremely strong beers called barley wine. The bitterness of the beer helps round out the intensity of alcohol and the malt complexity to make a non-cloying and very, very tasty beer. This may be the one beer that you still need to sip rather than quaff but it is deceptive for the style.
Hops: Columbus, Millenium, Northern Brewer, Simcoe, Falconers Flight, Galena, Peerle, Santiam, Ahtanum, Fuggle, Glacier, Hersbrucker, Liberty, Spalt, Hallertau

BTS or Poke Cake
This is the original BTS or Poke Cake Recipe (as I know it). There are a lot of different versions out there, but this is the classic one for me. Chocolate cake, poked to death, soaked in sweetened condensed milk, and topped with copious amounts of Cool Whip, Heath Toffee Bits, and caramel sundae sauce.
I've also included a few of my favorite variations at the bottom of the post!
This is the original recipe that began my ongoing love affair with poke cakes and their many, many recipe variations.
Poke Cake is something my Grandma makes every once in a while for family affairs (although usually in trifle form), and I'm always sure to snag a piece. But the funny thing is, other than those occasional run ins with this cake, I never really gave it much thought. I mean, I've always loved it. It's always been delicious, and lovely, and and I could never get enough.
But it never once crossed my mind in all of my years of poke-cake-eating that it could be done differently.
Until last fall.
October-November was sort of a turning point for me in my recipe development methods. Up until then, I had simply been trying to come up with the most creative recipes I could concoct. But around that time, I was slowly shifting towards more traditional recipes with subtle variations and twists.
And I thought… how could I change this recipe?
The obvious place to start was to exchange cake flavors. And because it was Fall time, and because pumpkin paired nicely with the Heath and caramel already in the recipe, I made a Pumpkin Poke Cake. The only difference between that cake and the original was the exchange of pumpkin cake for the chocolate cake. Easy.
And then that cake went crazy viral on Pinterest, Stumble, and Facebook. So I thought… I guess I'd better make another!
With Christmas just around the corner, I decided to make a Chocolate Peppermint Poke Cake. This time I played around with the sweetened condensed milk filling by blending it with a little bit of peppermint creamer. It made the cake a little moister than the original, but I loved it. In fact, I prefer it that way!
That Christmas cake was also the first time I experimented with adding a layer of hot fudge sauce, Oreo pieces, and new toppings. Hands down one of my favorite variations. LOVE IT.
As the months have passed, I've continued to experiment with new flavors for different holidays (see Valentine's Red Velvet, Easter Carrot Cake, and Summer Lemon Cake). I had a lot of fun creating a rainbow colored cake for St. Patrick's day. And I've even made a skinny version!
There are sooooo many ways you can play with this little ol' recipe. It's really such a fun one to change up!
And, it seems, the more Poke Cakes I make, the more questions I get about them. I've been shocked at how many people know so little about this cake! So in the spirit of sharing and hoping to make everyone as addicted to this recipe as I am, I thought I'd answer a few of the questions I regularly get asked… Just so we're all on the same page here.
What is a poke cake?
It's a normal cake (baked from a mix or from scratch) with holes poked in the top (either with a fork or the base of a wooden spoon). Sweetened condensed milk, pudding, or jello is then poured over the holes, which allows the liquid to seep into the cake and make it moist and flavorful. After the cake has chilled for a few hours and the liquid has been absorbed into the cake, it is topped with Cool Whip and other optional toppings (like Heath Bits).
What's a BTS cake?
It's basically the same thing. Except, to my understanding, BTS cake refers only to the version in this post: chocolate with Heath Bits and Caramel. BTS stands for "better than sex." You'll have to be the judge of that!
I don't understand the names of your poke cakes.
I know. So sorry about that. I'm a horrible recipe namer. I saw that my friend Nikki over at Chef in Training had named her BTS cake "Better Than Anything" cake. So I've been trying to play off of that title by replacing the "anything" with another word. Like the Christmas Poke Cake was called, "Better than… Christmas Poke Cake." I always try to keep "Poke Cake" in the title as well, since different people seem to know it as "better than… cake" and "poke cake." Basically I wanted everyone to understand what I meant, so I made it too long. Which actually confused everyone instead. My bad.
How many holes do I poke?
For heaven's sake poke as many as you'd like! But for those of you who need an actual number… 24 big holes (using the base of a wooden spoon, not a fork) seems to do the trick…
It's too sweet, too moist. Is that normal?
The sweetened condensed milk can be a little overwhelming depending on the cake you use. A cake from scratch will be a little denser and might keep the sweetened condensed milk from "taking over" the cake (as opposed to using a cake mix, which will yield a fluffier cake). If you don't like "too much" sweetened condensed milk (er… I don't really believe in too much sweetened condensed milk though), simply don't add the entire can! About 3/4 of the can will probably suffice. Or consider using prepared pudding instead– that's yummy too! And it'll save you some calories and fat!
Do I add the cool whip before or after chilling?
You can add the cool whip at any time after the cake is completely cooled and the sweetened condensed milk has been poured. However, it is a little easier after the cake has had time to absorb the sweetened condensed milk. But if you're in a hurry to have it all done and in the fridge, go ahead and spread it on right away. In the end, it'll be just fine.
Hope that helps! And I hope you enjoy this cake as much as I do!!
- 1 9x13 chocolate cake, prepared and cooled, still in pan
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 16 oz cool whip
- 1 cup Heath Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits
- 1/2 cup caramel sundae sauce
- Once the cake has completely cooled, poke 24-30 holes in it using the base of a wooden spoon.
- Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake, aiming to fill the holes.
- Cover and chill for a few hours until the cake has absorbed the sweetened condensed milk (you can tell it's absorbed when there aren't pools of sweetened condensed milk sitting on top of or around the sides of the cake anymore).
- Spread the cool whip over the cake. Top with the Heath bits and drizzle the caramel syrup over top.
- Keep chilled until ready to serve.
- Serves 12-15
When I made this cake for photographing, I was out of Heath Milk Chocolate Candy Bits, so I used Heath Bit O' Brickle Bits and drizzled some chocolate syrup. This works just fine, but if you can find the Milk Chocolate Heath bits-- use those!

I've been hearing about poke cakes for a few years now, but have yet to try one. If you know me, this is not surprising, as I'm a compulsive list maker. My lists are a mile long. It takes a while. Thanks for sharing the source material. I hope I can try it soon.
Oh I want to eat all of these poke cakes! All of them I tell allllll!
Now . . . if we can just get kraft to send me a box full of cool whip lite because we can't get it in Australia :(
Regular cream is just not the same. I plan to make several of these on my next trip to the US! Recipe bookmarked girlfriend :)
Can you believe I have never had poke cake!! Why oh why am I holding out? I need a church function or something to come up so I won't be tempted to eat the whole thing because seriously it looks that good!!
I have never had nor made a poke cake- they just seem scary for some reason even though I know they're not! I really do need to make one eventually.
I've never made a poke cake!! They seem to come out so moist so I'll have to try one!
I feel so blonde! I never got the correlation between BTS and Poke! Ugh! Thank you so much for pointing it out! I've seen the better than sex cake on pinterest and was always interested, but ya know…that's a huge claim, so it better live up to ya know- I hate being disappointed! I think all of these look amazing and you've turned me into a pinning fool! Thanks, Ashton!! :)
whoooaaa my goodness. This is pure evil because I really really want to jump at the screen. They look soo delicious, especially that lemon one. I'd never heard of a poke cake before but now I'm hoping to try it in the near future. ;)
You have inspired me so many times with your poke cakes. I have one cooling in the fridge right now!
This cake is dangerous :)
I love your Q&A about poke cakes!! Love the variations, too;)
I don't think I've seen anything more scrumptious! Save me two slices. I never knew what a poke cake was until I read this post…I've never even heard of it.
Now following. Blessings, Catherine xo
Love this recipe!!!
My 2 variations are: Turtle Poke Cake — used toasted pecans & sprinkled a layer on top of sweetened condensed milk, then coolwhip, drizzled with caramel sauce and sprinkled more tOasted pecans on too!
German chocolate: used toasted coconut, and drizzled with caramel & chocolate sauces. Topped with toasted coconut & pecans.
My version……..carrot cake, poke holes, pour sweetned condensed milk. Chill, then pour over a jar of caramel sauce'………then add cool whip Frosting in chocolate flavor, not cool whip…….frosting…..they have three flavors of it. Now gild that sucker with cripushed butterfinger bars. No it wasn't too moist or sweet…..,they loved it.
Now I'm thinking rasberry preserves mixed with the SCM,pour over the holes of a yellow cake and use regular cool whip. Top with real raspberries.

Egypt Cuts off Hamas, Postponing Next Gaza War
For the time being, however, the situation looks better.
Note: The phrase "Communism in one country" meant that having Communism in one country–the Soviet Union–was enough for Communists and they would not try to spread revolution further. Communists were supposed to reject this idea. The meaning here is that Hamas would be happy enough to run the Gaza Strip that it wouldn't be aggressive or subversive to spread its rule further. I'm saying that isn't true. The same applies for the Muslim Brotherhood generally. How much patience or risk-taking they employ is another matter.

Kinect Adventures

Kinect Adventures w/included demos and Kinect Day One ExperienceBy andy link Score:
Nov 05, 2010 11:01PM PST
|So, I took the plunge. Just the kintect with pack-in, gamefly for trying. None of the titles are here yet.
I made enough space, but it is a bit tight. I'm about 6'4, the tv and unit are about 8 feet back, and it has problems with my head and feet, but tracks fine. I've only tried out Kinect Adventures and all the demos. They really should have several other demos up to sample online, shame. Included is Dance Central (thankfully), Ubisoft's workout app, and Joyride.
First off, a review of my experience. Unboxed, set-up, very simple. Tried out different positions for the unit, settled on one that worked after an hour or so of trial and error with Adventures. Pretty snug room.
The Kinect dashboard/center comes up when you wave. Pretty intuitive and it feels like you're entering into a new realm of XBOX. Simpler, slower, bigger. Sort of like Media Center, only you flail about in slow motion. Takes some getting used to. The problem with Kinect is that everything is configured different. When they get to a place where users can input their own sensititivity and styles of interracting, it will be much cooler. Already, Dance Central and the Ubi-Workout menu systems feel fast, sci-fi and intuitive. Dance Central seems to be the most polished and responsive title by far. Like, they somehow took off all the training wheels. Which I expect most of the launch titles to actually be. Haven't tried sports, but that does look pretty swell, too.
So, Kinect Adventures. Needs options to turn off the start-ups, warnings, and instructions on each game. This gets remarkably old. I know this is designed as a show piece to get people familiar, but fuck. Give us ADD nerds a break.
I had fun with Kinect Adventures. There's not a lot of meat, but they repackage it into enough iterations to make you feel compelled to keep collecting shit. Giant Bomb's use of MoCap trophy, awesome. I expect someone to make a killer Machinma Drama studio for this motherfucker. Like, the potential could be incredible.
Kids love actings, and puppets, and make-believe.
The only minigame I had problems with was one of the most enjoyable, the 20K Leaks one. My big ass feet never registered for certain spots. Discovering turning sideways as a tactic in the dodging shit on rails one was very wild. Certain ranges of motion you don't expect to be using in a game. I imagine sneaking through an alleyway in certain games would be incredible with this motion. I can also see Kinect making very intuitive first person hand controls, like, prying open a broken door, etc. This stuff works well, even in its infancy.
The games aren't that deep, but I've only gotten up through Intermediate, and shit keeps unlocking. I got a set of pretty femme wristbands as Avatar schwag which I'm going to pimp out my avatar in.
And yeah, seeing your Avatar scratch his balls never gets old. Microsoft's team is going to be getting some pretty high-larious data from our gameplay fo sho.
The Adventure games seem slightly unresponsive at first. What it was for me, was just getting used to it, the sort of internal speed the game is set at. How fast I should move for it to work properly. Each game has its own feel, which is the most disconcerting thing about it. But, once you figure out the game, it sort of clicks.
So, onto the demos:
Dance Central Demo. Slick, clever, intuitive as hell, and super responsive. The game judged my shitastic dance skillz accordingly and sent me to get the moves down.
Breaking down the moves is quite a lot of fun. The icons are okay for representation, but should be animated, even if just simplistic or flash-like. Watching the dancer-instructor/avatar and just copying whatever s/he is doing is your best bet, and even then, it takes some practice. I've taken dance before, as a wee child, and it was tap/ballet, and never ventured into clubs except to gawk, so this is a decent, if very simple instruction tool. On Easy for reference, first time through I was getting four stars. Three stars on Medium.
Two songs are included in the demo. Lady Gaga's Poker Face and Poison.
There are custom finisher moves for each of the songs. And the dance move selections fit the tracks well. It's slick and like nothing you've played. DDR is its own beast. Dance Central could be the start of something awesome. This is a very very good taste of what is to come. The microphone being used for claps, shout outs, and stomps would be rad.
Two players, also, but could get dangerous, fer realz.
Will try this with friends and girls over a weekend and report back soon.
The next demo was UbiSoft's very very limited, smash blocks and watch a video demo. The highlight was the video mashed on top a 3D model of myself with scanned skeleton. It is eerily rad and one of the most sci-fi moments I've had thus far in life. Beyond that, I stood shoulders firm and punched imaginary bricks as fast as I could. It was pretty sweet. The UI and interface is slick, clean, and appealing. I felt I took the red pill.
Joy Ride. Not shabby. The steering controls are a lot more subtle and real world than I was expecting. I went broad at first, which made me steer all over the place. Subtle natural incremental turning motions matched up quite nicely. I finished in first place my first race. Figured out a lot of the nuance in one race, save the tricks. Steering and drifting felt about right.
Another nice touch stands out, though this could prove horrifying. Like the video snapshot feature in games such as Burnout, most of these titles seem to employ such a thing. I was treated to a lot of myself looking very serious doing many unserious things. Rad. That it saves these moments to the HD should make for great party blackmail and/or social network fodder.
The most egregious use is found during the freestyle portions of Dance Central, where I hammed it up with cheesy video synth effects and even cheesier text. That is a weak spot of DC, they really needed to stylize the hell out of these a lot better. We know we're lame, but at least make us look a little less lame plz. Think silhouettes, smoke contrails, etcs. Maybe they get better. And at the end you're treated to a snapshot summation of your performance. Mine looked a lot like a robot.
So. First day thoughts. Pleasantly stoked for the potential of this beast. The launch titles are all veneer designed to be shown off to friends and keep the kids tired. Rad, but I'm a wee more hardcore. All I can do right now is imagine what next year's titles will resemble. And if they get the kinks worked out, there will be killer app. Can you imagine a two player mechwarrior game where one is the pilot, one is the gunner and you have to call out shit and use various interfaces? The hardware seems a tad more nuanced than I was expecting. If not all titles wanted you to move around, and encouraged you to just use your torso, things would get interesting. The hybrid titles also intrigue me. SceneIt and Buzz! just got a whole lot more interesting.

Students have undertaken placements as far away as New York, Canada and the Middle East – although there are great opportunities closer to home with companies such as Balfour Beattie.
Opportunities on construction sites next to campus have been extremely rewarding.
Architectural technology graduate Rafal Daszczyszak, who secured a role as a graduate intern with Willmott Dixon, said: "My CV is much more enhanced by doing this job. My skills and knowledge are really desirable in the job market so it's a really good opportunity for me."
Building Surveying graduate Jessica Van Rensberg secured a placement with Willmott Dixon. "It was extremely rewarding, I gained lots of experience," she said. "I learned how a commercial construction site is run and gained experience with sub contractors on how to engage with people on a day to day basis."
OpportUNIty: Student Jobs on Campus ensures that our students are given a first opportunity to fill many part-time temporary positions within the University. This allows you to work while you study with us, fitting the job around your course commitments. By taking part in the scheme, you will gain valuable experiences and employability skills, enhancing your prospects in the job market.
It will also allow you to become more involved in University life by delivering, leading and supporting many aspects of the learning experience, from administration to research and mentoring roles.
Through our courses we give you the skills and experience needed to get a head start when applying for jobs. But we offer something extra too – Graduate+.
Our unique programme gives you the chance to develop valuable skills outside of the more formal classroom learning. We award points for Graduate+ activities (including firewalking!) and these can be put towards a final Graduate+ award.
Our architectural technology degree provides a platform for many architecture and design-related careers.
Graduates find that their industry-standard skills are in demand. Architectural technologists may find employment as private practitioners, as partners with architects in local or central government, in education, with building and manufacturing companies or in research.
Our graduates have gained roles such as graduate landscape architects, designers and architectural technologists with prestigious firms such as Cumming Anderton Architects, Barnes Design, Benevides, Associate Architects and Mott MacDonald.
An innovative collaboration with Birmingham City Council's Urban Design team gives you the opportunity to can gain work experience, work on research projects, develop technical skills, as well as win excellence awards and contribute to projects influencing future council policy.
The inter-professional project is a final year module in which you work on a live project for an industry client. Our students' recommendations have informed council policy and the design of high-profile developments, kick-starting successful careers.
Birmingham City University is a vibrant and multicultural university in the heart of a modern and diverse city. We welcome many international students every year – there are currently students from more than 80 countries among our student community.
The University is conveniently placed, with Birmingham International Airport nearby and first-rate transport connections to London and the rest of the UK.
Our international pages contain a wealth of information for international students who are considering applying to study here, including:
Our subject area is particularly popular with students from the Far East and Africa. They are attracted by our practical teaching, using the very latest design software which gives them a head-start in industry.
Some students return home after graduation but others make the UK their home and build a successful career here.
Erika Parn, from Finland, was looking for a city based course and ended up staying in Birmingham, working for the School. She said: "You get good feedback from lecturers and a lot of support. The city is changing a lot and constantly improving, which is why I'm still here."
International students who have a serious interest in studying with us but who perhaps cannot meet the direct entry requirements, academic or English, or who have been out of education for some time, can enter Birmingham City University International College (BCUIC) and begin their degree studies.
BCUIC is part of the global Navitas Group, an internationally recognised education provider, and the partnership allows students to access the University's facilities and services and move seamlessly through to achieving a Bachelor's degree from Birmingham City University.
We are constantly investing in our estate and are currently in the process of spending £260 million on new learning facilities.
Building work on our new Conservatoire began in the summer of 2015 – and is scheduled for completion in summer 2017. This, along with the construction of a new city centre accommodation block, means our students have access to their very own building sites.
We couple this with the more traditional, office-based facilities:
Part of your learning activity will be hands-on, including carrying out survey work using a range of equipment, such as levels, theodolites, measuring tapes.
You will be provided with the latest CAD software – free of charge – to enable you to acquire the skills you need in a modern design office.
Our staff have professional experience and continue to work with, and be respected by, industry.

Some providers may think that with their new EHR they can take a break from incorporating the latest health IT into their practices. But while EHRs may fit the bill when it comes to, among other things, documenting services provided in order to invoice appropriately for the visit, effective care delivery, says tech executive Ted Quinn, "is all about managing complexity."
And for that providers need what he calls a "Care Coordination Record."
"A Care Coordination Record," Quinn explains, "bridges the gap between an in-person visit . . . and everything else that needs to happen across the care continuum and in between visits. Care Coordination Records are distinct from EMR-based summary care records, continuity of care documents, and continuity of care records, which are temporary snapshots of patient data in the EMR."
According to Quinn, a true Care Coordination Record should include a list of everyone involved in a patient's care, a comprehensive care plan approved by the patient, clearly defined tasks and roles that the plan involves and mechanisms for tracking care team communications with all team members, internal and external.
"All members of a care team," Quinn suggests, ". . . can use Care Coordination Records to engage in collaborative care planning, efficiently manage in-between visit care, and make safe, reliable handoffs across the care continuum."
As Quinn notes, he isn't alone in his call for a focused effort on a patient-oriented, workflow IT solution. Beth Israel's John Halamka and Pittsburgh-based UPMC's Rasu Shrestha have both recently suggested that, in Shrestha's words, "The systems that we have today are not geared toward clinical efficiency."
Which is just one of the reasons why Quinn says the Care Coordination Record will be "the dominant HIT innovation in years to come."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

You know I never quite understood why people mourned the death of people they never even knew. I mean don't get me wrong, I have cried at the funeral of people I didn't know for the sheer fact, I hate to see other people suffering. But for those who completely fall out as if it was there own mother, I never quite got it…
That is until Whitney died!!
You see, I always felt like this day was coming but I prayed and prayed that it wouldn't. I hoped when I woke up this morning that it would just be a horrible rumor. I hoped that I would wake up and this would all be a bad dream, but as I sit here typing I realize it's not. I'm taking Whitney's death extremely personal because she was my last hope. You see, my mother was a drug addict and I remember having that same hope for her until that faithful day when I realized she was no longer with us. I'm a realist, really I am. I know that if you do drugs that eventually the drugs will win if you don't get help, but I still felt blindslided by my own mothers death. So when my mother died that hope I held on to as a little child died with her. So, when Whitney was able to get herself clean and eventually return to the spotlight, I felt that sense of hope that I did for my very own mother. I was happy to see her return to her throne and I hoped she would stay. Then the rumors began to swirl again and I hoped the stories of her relapsing were false. I once again felt like that little girl who wanted her mother to get and stay clean. Although we don't know what killed Whitney what I do know is she will no longer suffer. Unless you've ever been addicted to drugs you will never know what the fight is like. I've seen it first hand and believe me when I say it's a horrible, horrible fight.
To Whitney, although our journey has come to an end your life will be a true inspiration to millions… Say hello to my mother for me and ask her to forgive me, I didn't understand until it was too late and she was gone.
To Bobbi Kristina, Though it hurts when any child loses their mother, especially so soon you must continue to fight. While, I realize this will hurt for a long time the sun will one day shine again the only difference is you will have you very own personal angel….
I will always love you Whitney….
*Forgive any grammatical errors, I'm just not in the mood now*

Orange is the New Black, the Netflix original prison dramedy created by Jenji Kohan (Weeds) and based on the memoir by Piper Kerman, will be losing a crucial cast member in its second season. It's now being reported that Laura Prepon will be bailing on the series in the middle of season two.
Warning: Some spoilers ahead…
In the series, Taylor Schilling plays Piper Chapman, a woman imprisoned for carrying drug money for her girlfriend Alex Vause, who is portrayed by Prepon. Vause is also in the same prison after being busted running drugs for an international drug cartel. By the end of Orange is the New Black's critically-lauded first season (which also managed to score more viewers than Arrested Development's fourth season or House of Cards, two other Netflix original series), Alex and Piper had split.
And while there has been no reason given for Prepon's abrupt exit, Netflix issued a hasty statement noting that Prepon's storyline will be wrapped up at some point in season two, with an option for her to return. "Our season is still developing and nothing is confirmed." The second season of the show was green-lit in June, weeks before the first season had even premiered on the streaming-content giant.
What do you think of the Orange is the New Black news?
