CBS News chief calls Aaron Rodgers 'overly sensitive' about '60 Minutes' profile
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has complained that CBS unfairly edited his remarks regarding dirty play and the bounty scandal in his recent profile on "60 Minutes."
He said the segment was edited "for their purposes, their agenda, and most of the answers were either just portions of a bigger answer or probably not even for the question that was asked." »Read Full Blog Post(2)
Westphal played with Barbara and the Karousels polka band
As a boy living on his grandfather's Cedarburg farm, Joseph Westphal used to pick up sticks and pound on garbage can covers while listening to music.
"Then he'd turn boxes upside down to make different sounds. He just loved playing the drums," his ex-wife Joyce said of Westphal, who went on to perform for half a century as a drummer and singer with the polka band Barbara and the Karousels and other polka groups. »Read Full Article

For 'Wicked' star, it's easy being green
When actress Jennifer DiNoia was 5, her parents took her to see a musical production of "The Wizard of Oz" at New York's Radio City Music Hall.
Young as she was, DiNoia wasn't the least bit frightened by the show's villain, the green-skinned Wicked Witch of the West. (What actually scared her was the big-headed Wizard.) Instead, she was captivated by the sight of the witch flying over the audience. »Read Full Article

Huge self-portrait of Curiosity on Mars
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla on 2012/11/01 07:27 CDT | 9 comments
Curiosity used MAHLI, the scientific camera at the end of the robotic arm, to shoot a huge color portrait of herself sitting on Mars, with Gale's central mountain in the background.
Getting up to speed with Curiosity as of sol 84, and two awesome mosaics
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla on 2012/10/31 07:39 CDT | 6 comments
Curiosity has already spent more than three weeks at Rocknest, working through the very slow process of commissioning the sample handling systems. While parked, she's taken a couple of amazing photo mosaics.

It is always thrilling to see relics of human exploration out there on other worlds. Today, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera team posted some new photos of two defunct spacecraft: the Luna 17 lander and the Lunokhod 1 rover. I've posted images of the two craft before, but the ones released today are much better.

This is easily one of the best Christmas movies I've ever seen. It's become a tradition for my mom and I to watch this movie around this time of the year because that's how much we love it. It has so much magic, charm and fun packed into one movie. Even though none of these characters have a name, you can't help but grow attached to them because of how much we can relate to all of them (maybe except Santa, unless you're me, who loves milk and cookies). Even though this film is all-around cheerful and fun, there are a few bits in the film that get your minds rolling, that make you think about other's who may not be as fortunate as you or make you realize how grateful and appreciate you should be for what you have. The music score is so especially delightful. Josh Groban's voice is truly spectacular!Reply

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops removed 10 checkpoints Thursday near the Palestinian Authority- (PA) controlled cities of Ramallah, Nablus (biblical Shechem), Tulkarem and Kalkiya.
Following last week's visit by U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, her second during March, Israel agreed to remove 50 checkpoints in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) to facilitate travel for Palestinians from PA-controlled areas.
It took less than five hours for the first terror attack to occur after the dismantling of a checkpoint in Samaria. An Arab university student was shot to death after attacking two Israelis with a knife at a hitchhiking post.
Israel's determination to comply with US demands to dismantle checkpoints will leave local Jewish families more vulnerable to terror attacks by armed Palestinians with ill intentions.
Along with dismantling checkpoints, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak agreed to release 25 armored vehicles, donated by Russia, to Palestinian Authority security forces, along with Kalashnikov rifles, ammunition and other military paraphernalia.

OH, how friggin close...Again...
Let's not jump on the coach for the Melo pass inside...it was there!!
If you you tube the clip and stop it when the double team ran at Melo, the play to make was Jeffries breaking free underneath...pass was good, catch was good, but he turned backwards to make another pass and didn't just let it go when he caught it?? It was set up to be the perfect storm by the Knicks...and It'll take me till Friday to get over this one..
But hear this,,No doubt in my mind, this series will be tied by Sunday afternoon.....THIS BABY IS GOING 7..gonna be some fun!!
Ya know the Celtics must be feelin just a little ferclempt about escaping with last second wins....
This has the makings of a CLASSIC SERIES..
I took a look at the replays of that turnover by Jefferies. He certainly did turn the wrong way. He was wide open when Melo passed to him. If he went straight up with his right hand, it should have been two points. But he turned to the left and directly into the path of the advancing Garnett.
But Walker was being guarded by Garnett around the foul line. He should have moved away from the basket and toward Melo. Either Garnett would have followed or Walker would have been free.
Jefferies turning into Garnett appears as though the play was designed for for him to pass off to Walker.
The problem is that he should have never been in that position to begin with. He is an atrocious foul shooter and so inept offensively that he actually turns the wrong way.
This game was winnable b/c of a stellar performance by Melo, and blown because the coach could not adjust the offense once Boston started doubling...
MDA needs to go.
Coach must have Turi and JJ scared to shoot. He even got Sheldon to come here to be a non scoring center. I've seen these dudes give up the easy basket plenty of times, it pisses me off actually. But I also wouldn't be suprised if either of them were deferring. Coach needs to draft a young tall athlete and coach him up to be a lane and middle clogger. I don't see any FA centers worth our cap space this coming year, that cash should be used along with trades to get a stable/experience PG, SG, and decent sixth man. Daft the center because you need fresh legs to run in this system, I doubt this coach wants him to score. There's plenty of them out there...

Oxymoron – (noun) a figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in "cruel kindness" or to make haste slowly."

Frozen is one emotionally grueling and a heartbreaking film. Its many tragic moments and sequences earn it a place as one of Disney's saddest and most moving ever made. Click here to view non-canon work.
The Disney film
- Elsa's story in general. She used to be so close to Anna until her ice powers started to develop and almost kills Anna with them. She has since cut off their relationship and her social life until her powers were accidentally revealed and fled her kingdom in utter fear and shame.
- Elsa's lines in "For the First Time In Forever" are the opposite of Anna's enthusiasm. She's clearly dreading this day. This really hits home when she sings her "conceal, don't feel" mantra as a counterpoint to Anna. While Anna's part is still filled with joy and excitement, Elsa's part is resigned and forlorn.
- The fact that Elsa spent most of her life believing that if she touched people, she could kill them very easily. She refuses to touch even her parents, in case she hurts them. She leaves her kingdom when her power is revealed, telling her people not to come near her. She makes a new home for herself, her sister comes to get her and the entire time Elsa tells her to leave so she'll be safe. Sadly, she does end up hurting her sister and the kingdom.
- Then near the end of the movie, the first time she gets to touch her beloved little sister is when Anna has been frozen solid after saving her, and Elsa believes her to be dead.
- Even during the film's happy ending, when displaying her powers to the public, Elsa STILL looks just a little bit nervous, suggesting that it'll take a while before she becomes fully comfortable with using her powers in front of people.
- Word of God says she suffers from anxiety and depression. Even with the happy ending, without modern psychiatry and medication, she's not out of the woods yet, which puts even more of a sad note to this nervousness.
- "Do You Want To Build A Snowman?"
Anna: We only have each other. It's just you and me. What are we gonna do?
- To prevent Elsa's powers from causing harm to the kingdom, Agdar and Idun try to teach her to suppress her powers. They close all the windows and doors, shut off the castle from others, and keep the sisters in separate rooms. Anna keeps singing to Elsa to come out and play behind a locked bedroom door for years. To elaborate on this, it's shown that Anna sang for Elsa to come out and play with her when they were little kids, all the way up until she hits her mid-teens. The third time she slides by the door, when they're both older, Anna glances sadly at it and walks away.
- "Okay, bye." She's just so disappointed, and the fact that it's actually a little kid's voice...
- This is immediately followed by Elsa looking something out of her window (possibly her sister playing), with a little half-smile, before she jumps back in horror as the ice forms on the windowsill.
- Elsa saying, "No, don't touch me! Please... I don't want to hurt you..." when her father reaches out to comfort her.
- The death of the King and Queen. Anna continues a third verse, this time in a minor tone, as she comes back from the wake, walks up to the door to Elsa's bedroom for the umpteenth time... and sits down at the door, the last lyrics wilting into sobs. Elsa, who can remember the real reason for all this, can hear her right on the other side of the door and cannot bear to answer her. You see Elsa's room covered in frost, emanating from her spot. Remembering that her power stems from her emotions, it's an EXTREMELY effective way to show just how all this affected poor Elsa.
Elsa? Please,I know you're in there...People are asking where you've been.They say "have courage", and I'm trying to.I'm right out here for you...Just let me in...
- Even worse, Anna returns from the wake alone. Imagine not only not being able to comfort your little sister after a funeral for your own parents, but not even being able to go, for fear of hurting someone else you love.
- Meanwhile, Anna is having to lead a country in mourning alone. The only remaining member of her once-close family won't even stay in a room with her. She's fifteen years old.
- She probably knows there's something badly wrong with her sister, would do anything to help, but for reasons withheld from her, she's been cut totally out of the loop and has no idea why Elsa is the way she is.
- Anna shows no bitterness that she's been left alone to cope with the death of her parents, nearly all of her verse is taken up with begging Elsa to let her give support.
- Elsa was clearly terrified about them leaving, and they promised they'd be back in a couple of weeks. So, through no fault of anyone but the weather, Elsa lost the only people she felt remotely safe with and could trust with her secret. She has no one left but her sister, and she doesn't want to hurt her again.
- The sheer level of hopelessness in Anna's voice during the first lines she sings after her parents die. Note how even from the very start this is one in direct contrast to the energetic, enthusiastic young Anna from the start of the song.
- If you listen carefully, you can hear a sob as Elsa puts her head down at the end.
- "It doesn't have to be a snowman..."
- And, the suspended chain at the end! The entire song's meter is geared up for Elsa's response to be "yes, I do", but instead the vocals cut off, just before we see Elsa crying on the other side of the door - of course, she wanted to say that too.
- When Anna is talking to Elsa at the party:
Anna: I wish it could be like this all the time.Elsa: Me, too... but it can't.Anna: Why not?Elsa: It just can't!Anna: ...Excuse me for a minute. (she then walks away feeling dejected and starts crying)
- If you look closely, Elsa looks just as upset by this exchange as Anna, watching after her sister sadly.
- Especially how Elsa goes from smiling fondly at first when answering her sister to a look of anguish when saying "it can't".
- It's heavily implied that a good part of the reason Anna is so quick to rush into marriage with Hans is that she's afraid that she might not get another chance anytime soon, and she's afraid she might not find love at all due to the isolation she's gone through for years. Hence the title "Love Is an Open Door"; all her life, Anna has looked at a closed door.
For the first time in forever, I could be noticed by someone!And I know it's totally crazy/To think I'd find romance/But for the first time in forever/At least I've got a chance!A chance to change my lonely world/A chance to find true love!I know it all ends tomorrow/So it has to be today!
- Some of Anna's lines in "For The First Time In Forever" (easily missed due to it being a mostly upbeat and happy song) drive this point home once you catch them.
- It's made even worse by the original words for that song; the line "a chance to change my lonely world" was, originally: "a chance to leave my sister's world" meaning that Anna blamed Elsa for it all.
- Anna asks for Elsa's blessing for her and Hans' marriage, but she says no because Anna doesn't know Hans long enough. Anna then protests that it is true love.
Elsa: Anna, what do you know about true love?
Anna: More than you. All you know is how to shut people out.
Elsa: (visually hurt but still firm) You asked for my blessing, but my answer is no.
Anna: Elsa, please, I can't live like this anymore!
- When Elsa walks away, she announces, "The party's over. Close the gates." Then this exchange happens:
Elsa: (obviously in great grief) ...Then leave.
(Anna is misty-eyed)
Anna: What did I ever DO TO YOU?!
- So in the above exchange, Elsa really wants Anna to leave, to be safe, and Anna doesn't consider leaving. She wants her sister back.
- It's striking in this scene how much Anna wants Elsa back in her life, when she instantly wants Hans to move in with her and her sister (to which he agrees- to Elsa's horror- 'cos, well, that's what he's like). So she wants someone new in her life to have some fun, but doesn't for a moment want to move away, and feels she's been given a Sadistic Choice by Elsa when, as she sees it, she's being told to choose to either be there for sister or to marry.
- The really sad bit of this dialogue is that it's One Dialogue, Two Conversations. Elsa basically says "You can't marry a man you just met," with the meaning, "He's not the right guy for you. Go and spend a few more years enjoying your life, and then maybe consider settling down to find someone." Anna hears: "Go on then, if you want to live outside my rules, go back to your boyfriend, get out, betray me, I don't care if I have no sister, I'm fed up with you."
- "Let It Go."
- The start is all about fear and loneliness. Indeed, some of the most triumphant lines in the latter sections of the song betray a subtle yet deep-seated bitterness. Here is a webpage that explores the many complicated emotions interacting in this song. It is indeed both triumphant and sad.
- At "Don't let them in..." it's clear that Elsa is emulating her father, telling her never to leave her room and reveal her ice powers, and the lines of that section are a sad Call Back to "Do you Want to Build a Snowman?" and Elsa's part of "For the First Time in Forever". It really shows how deeply her suppression has affected her, being told that such behavior was "being the good girl [she] always had to be", and how happy she is to release her abilities.
- Elsa unconsciously created Olaf, the embodiment of her happy childhood memories with Anna, during the song, which is mostly about how she's never going back and that the past is in the past. Just think about it. Olaf was created out of her memories of the happy times with Anna and longing for the good times they had. Marshmallow was created out of her desire to be alone and to keep Anna safe from herself. And her ice palace? That was created not only out of her desire for isolation, but her desire to be someplace she belongs, someplace where she can't hurt people and still be herself...and yet it isn't- she doesn't realize it, but she's still unintentionally hurting people even from her ice palace.
- It's actually more depressing if you cut the percussion and listen to the song get performed a cappella. It really drives home how lonely Elsa is up there on the North Mountain.
- After Olaf's song about how much he's going to love summer, Kristoff states "Someone's gotta tell him.", and it takes on a much more somber tone. The song itself is funny but at the same time sad. It seems like such a Tragic Dream.
- The look on Elsa's face when she tells Anna to go home without her. Elsa cares her little sister more than anything, but she's far too afraid of her own powers to let herself be close to her again.
- Elsa being informed that she accidentally created an Endless Winter everywhere, and her realization that no one can be safe from her magic, and she can never truly be free. The worst part is, it completely invalidates "Let It Go."
Elsa: I'm such a fool! I can't be free! No escape from the storm inside of me!Elsa: I can't control the curse!Elsa: Anna please, you'll only make it WORSE!Elsa: There's so much fear!Elsa: You're not safe here!Elsa: I CAN'T!!!
- Elsa's part of the reprise of "For The First Time In Forever."
- At the end of the song, Elsa turns around and sees Anna doubled over and visibly in pain. She jumps back and looks terrified.
- As she sings "There's so much fear", Elsa looks at her (somewhat distorted) reflection in the ice, like she is wondering if the Duke was right about her being a monster.
- Also, that Elsa is right when she says Anna will only make it worse. Anna is genuinely only trying to help, but her news has basically caused Elsa to have a panic attack and, as most people will tell you, telling someone who's having a panic attack not to panic is in no way helpful.
- Just take a close look at Anna's expression after Elsa accidentaly freezes her heart. It's downright accusatory. For the first time in forever (no pun intended), even if, apparently, for a very short amount of time, she's actively blaming her sister for what happened.
- Anna's reaction to being deceived by Hans while he's explaining his plan. She can't believe what's going on, and when she does, can't believe what she's hearing.
Hans (before the reveal): You said she wouldn't hurt you.Anna: I was wrong.
- Even more distressing, look at Anna's reaction to being asked about Hans when Olaf saves her, "I was wrong about him. It wasn't true love.", "I don't even know what love is." She is still blaming herself and not Hans for what has happened. The full extent of the impact Hans' betrayal has left on Anna can be seen here, when he has managed to humiliate Anna by causing her to feel ashamed of herself for how willing she was to believe he loved her. At the same time, Elsa is so emotionally distant that she feels unloved by her, too. You seriously just want to give the poor girl a hug.
- This also provides more depressing undertones for "Love is an Open Door". Not only was Anna afraid she might not get another chance, she was just as isolated as Elsa her life, so she doesn't know any better. It's easy to forget given how much she just wanted to play with her sister growing up.
- These lines:
- All this shutting out on her and yet Anna still cared for Elsa, but her line implies that she has lost faith in her sister after thinking she has deliberately hurt her, both physically and emotionally with her magic, not to mention shutting her out again.
- Kristoff' s expression and this line: "SVEN!" when Kristoff's best friend for years looks like he won't make it (especially when Sven tossed Kristoff away from drowning) and it takes a few seconds before Sven reappears. This brief moment is enough to make anyone cry.
- Kristoff, much like Anna and Elsa, was an orphan who doesn't like other people very much. He falls in love with Anna and leaves her with Hans, thinking his feelings are unrequited, then comes back and sees her turned to ice. Poor guy...
- The scene where Anna is turned into an Annasicle. Everything is just so... still. No background music, all the snow suspended in midair ... no sound but Elsa's sobs. It's so still that her crying echoes across to the castle balcony.
- It then adds another level of tearjerking to "Let It Go" when Elsa says they'll never see her cry. Notice that on the totally frozen body of Anna there are thin deposits of fine ice around her eyes. It's possible Anna's been crying as well as she was rushing to save Elsa and her body froze from within, either out of grief or blinking rapidly just trying to see as she crosses the fjord.
- Just as Anna and Kristoff are about to reach each other, Anna happens to see Hans about to chop Elsa in half out of the corner of her eye, and with a last look at Kristoff turns around and runs to save her sister. Once he catches up to them and takes in what just happened to Anna, Kristoff stops short with the most confused, heartbroken expression on his face.
- Olaf being sad. Up until this scene, Olaf had always been happy and cheerful. He just looks so devastated. It's a defining moment for him, showing that this hilarious kiddy character has other feelings too. He truly loves Anna.
Olaf: (sounding like he's about to cry) Anna?
- Olaf melting as summer is restored. Luckily, Elsa fixes that.
- From a very young age, Elsa has been isolated mostly for her own protection, but interpreted it as being to protect others from her. Finding out that she's triggered an 'eternal winter' over her kingdom, and then thinking she's killed her own sister - both the very things she was trying to prevent - leaves her completely shattered. She's lived with the guilt of almost killing her sister since they were children, and was probably reminded of it every time she saw the white streak in Anna's hair. Thinking Anna is dead because of her isn't just horrible, it's the manifestation of her greatest fear.
- The whole nature of Agdar's relationship with Elsa is heartbreaking. You can tell that the King loves his daughter dearly, and just wants to protect her. Both try to heed the advice of Grand Pabbie the Troll (who says "Fear will be your enemy"), but they both fail so utterly and that failure is the kicker — no matter how hard they tried, the King shutting Elsa off from everyone just made her issues worse. Elsa just kept getting more and more afraid of her powers as they grew stronger, and ultimately continued to force herself in solitude after her father's death. The fact that neither could figure out how to fix her problems no matter how much they tried (a huge part of the conflict of all the characters is the King's own personal failure and weakness) makes you really feel for both characters.
- The situation from Pabbie's perspective. It's shown that these trolls are deeply empathetic creatures (they aren't referred as "the love experts" for nothing), so seeing so much suffering caused by not only a misinterpretation of his warning, but everything he stands for...
- When Grand Pabbie the Troll tells Kristoff that he can't heal Anna, the look on Kristoff's face is heartbreaking.
- After the reveal, Anna nearly freezes to death, completely alone.
- The look on Elsa's face at the party when she accidentally reveals her powers to Anna and everyone there. The expression is nothing but complete horror and fear of what she has just done. Keep in mind the reason for all the neglect Elsa inflicted on Anna, from anyone in fact, is because she was too afraid of exposing her abilities and being shunned because of them. It hammers it in more when Elsa just stares at everyone before suddenly rushing out of the room.
- Even The Stinger has a whiff of happy tearjerker to it. Marshmallow tries on the tiara Elsa abandoned and reigns over the ice palace alone; the scene suggests Elsa can take her love with her (Olaf) and tame her anger and fear (Marshmallow) with art and beauty (the Ice Palace) but there's a part of her that will always yearn to be alone, shut off from the promise of happiness and human warmth, and who can blame her after what she has been through? On the other hand, Marshmallow can live whatever life he wishes (just like his creator), and even gets to be king of an ice palace! Maybe Elsa will come back and conjure up some brothers and sisters for him one day.
- After (accidentally and unconsciously) freezing Anna's heart, Elsa tells her and Kristoff to go away; Anna of course is not leaving without her doing something over the Endless Winter and keeps trying to convince her sister to work it out together. Elsa's reply:
Elsa: How!? What power do you have to stop this winter!? To stop me!?
- Elsa's line in the "For the First Time in Forever (Reprise)" about how she "can't control the curse". To think that Elsa went from adoring her powers and always using them to have fun with her sister to hating them to the point that refers to them as a curse is quite depressing. When she sings "There's so much fear!" she looks at her reflection in a nearby wall. It's as if she's starting to think that the Duke was right about her being a monster...
- A small moment, but still heartbreaking. When Anna is singing the reprise at the top of the stairs (specifically "You don't have to live in fear"), Elsa's gets a pained expression on her face. She looks as if she wants to listen Anna and wants to go with her, but she's just too afraid of bringing harm to Arendelle.
- "You... built me. Do you remember that?" That's the moment Olaf realises that his entire life was nothing more than a passing thought to Elsa. He basically meets his God, and she doesn't remember creating him. note
- You can read that scene as a positive tearjerker: arguably, she remembers just fine, she's just amazed to see that he's alive, as she had no idea that she could create life with her powers. The way she looks down at her hands and smiles as she realizes that she can create as well as destroy is actually a very happy moment.
- A lot of this movie's conflict as shown above stems from good, kind, noble, well-intentioned people whose well-intended actions meet with terrible consequences or are unappreciated (the King and Queen, Elsa) because they are dealing with threats they don't and can't know how to properly deal with. Malicious, malevolent people like Hans and the Duke of Weaseltown can operate with ill intent but still (for so much of the film) come off as though they're doing the right thing to most of the other characters in the film. That might be just enough to send you into a depressive funk.
- When, as children, Elsa accidentally hits Anna, the way she screams "Anna!" is distressing. She was doing a Futile Hand Reach but an ice blast came out of her hand and struck Anna. Then she runs up to her and starts crying over her, which foreshadows the ending where Elsa cries over Anna being frozen solid. Elsa screams "Mama! Papa!".
Elsa: (sobbing) You're okay, Anna. I've got you.
- Although we know that Anna gets better thanks to the promotional art of her as an adult, that doesn't prevent one from believing that Elsa may have done more than harm Anna. The music, Anna's motionlessness, and Elsa hugging her is similar to a scene of someone hugging a deceased loved one. Anna may have possibly died and her parents are quickly taking her to the trolls to bring her back to life before it is too late.
- It's a great source of both Adult Fear and legitimate panic for anyone who has a sibling they love dearly and would be devastated if anything bad happened to them.
- The way that the ballroom is suddenly covered in ice spikes, emanating from Elsa, also adds to the sadness of the scene, reflecting her emotional state. Additionally, it's the first time we see the darker aspects of Elsa's powers; a huge case of Mood Whiplash when compared to a few moments ago, when Elsa was shooting out snow and (less threatening) ice.
- Seeing the then-inert Olaf being destroyed by the spikes. Rule of Symbolism is in full effect here and it only gets worse as Elsa flees. Once she's outside, she accidentally freezes a fountain in front of her people. You can tell it stings when she sees a woman clutch her baby closer in fright, especially since the woman in question has just asked Elsa if she's alright.
- If you look closely, when the woman asks if she's alright, you can see Elsa shake her head "no."
- According to my subtitles, she even whispered a Little "No"
- If you look closely, when the woman asks if she's alright, you can see Elsa shake her head "no."
- Right before the reprise of "For the First Time In Forever" Anna reminds Elsa how close they were as children and says they can be that way again. Elsa has a flashback to when she accidentally struck Anna. She answers, "No. We can't." then turns away and tells Anna to leave.
- The fact that Anna doesn't realize why Elsa suddenly cut all ties from her and grows up thinking that Elsa no longer wants anything to do with her sister after having been so close up until that point.
- This is really shown during the ball scene after Elsa's coronation: Anna is placed very close to her sister only to move away slightly. She seems taken aback that Elsa would initiate a conversation between them. The ensuing conversation is rather awkward and stilted on both sides. They've been apart for so long that they rarely ever get to actually be in the same room together.
- Elsa's part in "For the First Time in Forever (Reprise)" when she claims she's fine with her self-imposed exile because she's finally herself. That only specific part has the happiest tone of all of Elsa's lines; and just realizing she's happy being completely and totally alone, away from her only family and the life she knew just to keep them safe, it's heartbreaking.
Elsa: Just stay away and you'll be safe from me.
- After that little moment of happiness, a big Mood Whiplash: the look in Elsa's face while getting away from Anna and telling her to stay away from her because she's dangerous.
- "Anna. Please go back home. Your life awaits." Elsa's expression is simply heartbreaking.
- It's also sad because Elsa is basically saying "Go back to Arendelle, be queen instead of me, marry Hans just like you wanted to." Anna doesn't want any of that... she wants her sister.
- When they are closing all the windows and doors, you see the girls' room. Anna and Elsa used to share a room and in the overhead shot, all of the stuff on Elsa's side of the room vanishes. Then, when Anna wants to go play with Elsa, she runs to her room, only for Elsa to look away sadly and shut the door on her without a single word. This leaves Anna saddened and standing still in shock, wondering what she did wrong. (Imagine "When She Loved Me" if it could be made more depressing).
- When Elsa wakes up in a cell after getting knocked out by the chandelier. From her "My God, What Have I Done?" when she sees outside the window to her sadly tugging on the chains holding her back.
Elsa: Don't you see? I can't...
- Later in that same scene, when Hans tells her to stop the winter.
- And it gets sadder. When Elsa demands to know why he brought her here, Hans says he couldn't let them kill her. Elsa's response to this? "But I'm a danger to Arendelle." She's saying she should've been killed. In other words, Elsa became suicidal.
- Frozen and Tangled being in the same universe isn't sad on its own, but then someone decided to make this.
- As of a reveal of Word of God on reddit, them being in the same universe does indeed fall into Tear Jerker territory. Remember how Agdar and Idun died in a storm? Where were they going? A wedding. Look at how similar the King of Arendelle is to the Queen of Corona, and the fact that Rapunzel and Eugene are at Elsa's coronation. If this confirmation further supports the theory that Rapunzel is Anna and Elsa's cousin... the King and Queen died while travelling to see the wedding of their niece, who had been abducted as a two month old and had been held captive for 18 years prior to the wedding... that revelation turns Tangled's ending into a Downer Ending when you look at it from the perspective of their sister kingdom.
- Or, alternately, if Once Upon a Time was taken as canon, they were trying to find a way to more properly control Elsa's powers because when her aunt Ingrid had a similar loss of control over her own powers, she accidentally killed her own sister Helga.
- As of a reveal of Word of God on reddit, them being in the same universe does indeed fall into Tear Jerker territory. Remember how Agdar and Idun died in a storm? Where were they going? A wedding. Look at how similar the King of Arendelle is to the Queen of Corona, and the fact that Rapunzel and Eugene are at Elsa's coronation.

- At the beginning of the movie, Grand Pabbie the troll tells Elsa (who, remember, is about nine years old at this point) and her parents, "Fear will be your greatest enemy," and thinks, oh, hell, it's a great idea to accompany this with a conjured image of Elsa being killed by an angry mob. The poor girl is terrified, and buries her face in her father's chest. This is also almost certainly the thing that spurs the King and Queen to isolate Elsa from others, for fear that the vision comes true, and creating an entirely new set of problems.
- When Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf reach Elsa's ice castle, Anna noticeably hesitates to knock on the door, and when she does and it opens, she says, "It opened. That's a first." For a split second, one remembers how for thirteen years she's been knocking on Elsa's door, only to have it always stay closed, shutting her out...
- Pulling double duty as a tear jerker and heartwarming moment, Agdar has gotten a lot of flak from viewers who feel he is responsible for Elsa's situation. On the contrary while the results are questionable, there is no doubt he loves Elsa in spite of everything. When he tells her "Getting upset only makes it worse, calm down!", his words may seem harsh, but the way he rushes over to her, to hold her close and reassure her that it'll all be alright in spite of the risk to his own person just drips of a concerned and conflicted parent. Given how alien the problem is (a daughter being born with unexplained ice powers) to everyone, it's understandable that not everyone would know how to deal with it.
- During the coronation, Elsa wears her hair like her late mother.
- Elsa fighting the Duke's men, or rather, before. When they spot her, she runs away and pleads with them, "Leave me alone!" Keep in mind up until this scene, Elsa had never intentionally used her powers for the purpose of doing harm to others. It's obvious she does not want to fight, but they don't leave her any choice.
- Manipulative Bastard that he is, Hans. He spent his whole life ignored and overshadowed by his 12 older brothers, and it's been confirmed by Word of God that he indeed grew up without love, sparking his desire to take the Arendelle throne in the first place. His actions are still inexcusable, but taking his glaringly relatable backstory into account, you can't help but feel terrible for the guy anyway. Elaborated on in this analysis here. This was only added to with the book A Frozen Heart, in which it is shown that his brothers constantly bully him, ranging from taunting to throwing glass at him for simply daydreaming. It's even heavily implied that he is a self-harmer, and may or may not have clinical depression. It's also stated that his original plan for taking over Arendelle wasn't even his idea, and didn't involve murder of any sort. He simply wanted a way out of his home kingdom, and planned to marry Elsa as an excuse to leave the Southern Isles for good.
- When the King and Queen are preparing to set sail on their fateful voyage, Anna runs into their arms and gives them a great big hug. Elsa, on the other hand, merely bows before them, afraid to even hold her own parents. This is also the last time she ever sees them alive, meaning she was never able to give them a farewell embrace.
- The way Sven brays forlornly at the castle gates after Kristoff left Anna is rather sad, especially coming from a character who is otherwise mainly comic relief.
- Pointed out by a Tumblr user who isn't this troper: When Kristoff is yelling at the trolls that Anna is already engaged to another man during their romantic sales-pitch song to Anna regarding Kristoff. Kristoff is embarrassed by his family to be sure, but he didn't say that he didn't love her or didn't want to marry her, only that he can't be with her because of her prior engagement. He looks and sounds sad, frustrated, and almost desperate when he says it. He fell for Anna hard and fast, and in his eyes, it was doomed from the word "go".

[RPI RANKINGS]Wake Forest, No. 1 in this week's Soccer America Men's Top 25, is first in the NCAA's initial RPI rankings of the 2007 season.
The Demon Deacons were one of five ACC teams ranked among the RPI's top 20 schools, along with No. 3 Boston College, No. 10 Virginia Tech, No. 14 Maryland and No. 18 North Carolina. Neither Maryland nor Carolina is ranked in the Soccer America Top 25.
Two Ivy League teams were ranked in the top 10: No. 6 Brown and No. 9 Harvard. The Northeast Conference's Quinnipiac at No. 15. The Bobcats are unbeaten at 9-0-1. The MAAC's Fairfield is No. 20 and Loyola (Md.) is 30, while the America East's Binghamton was No. 27.
Perhaps the biggest surprise was the absence of two ACC powers from the top 20 teams in the RPI index: Virginia, which was only No. 21, and Duke, which came in at No. 42.
The ranking of all 202 teams -- Gardner-Webb was last -- was generated on Oct. 15.
The RPI -- Ratings Percentage Index -- is used by the NCAA to determine which teams will receive at-large bids into the NCAA tournament following the regular season.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Chris Leak first surfaced in the public spotlight 15 years ago when as an eighth-grader former Wake Forest coach Jim Caldwell offered the promising young quarterback a scholarship. When it was time for college a few years later, Leak visited UF and "simply fell in love with the university" he said Thursday. "That's what I tell everybody. That's the best way I can put it. This is where my heart was."

The most unusual fund raiser is being held by the Harrison County Softball Fillies to raise money for the upcoming softball season.
Potty Mania is being run by senior Fillies Tracey Hicks and Emalee Little along with other Fillies and is a fun way to raise money.
It works like this: A commode is placed in a yard and remains there until the home owner pays $10 to have it removed, pays $15 to have it removed and to designate the next victim or pays $20 to have it removed, designate where it goes and it is guaranteed not to return.
After three straight wins, the Harrison County Fillies went down to defeat last Wednesday night at the hands of the Montgomery County Lady Indians by a 3-0 score in Mt. Sterling.
"I told the girls that it was my fault that we lost," said Fillies Coach Kim Jenkins. "They were not properly prepared for this match and that makes it my fault."
The Harrison County Thorobreds soccer team improved to 3-7-2 with a win over Paris on Thursday and a tie with Model Tuesday night.
The Paris match was one that started slow, which concerned Coach Nick Hill.
"We are never sure which team is going to show up and the slow start worried me a little," he said. "But we turned it on pretty quickly and made short work of the Paris team."
Lance McIlvain, Josh Young and Grant Carr each scored in the first half as the Breds took a 3-0 lead into the intermission.
Mason County's course has always proven to be a fast course for Harrison County runners and Saturday was no exception.
Of course, the cooler temperature didn't hurt any either as the varsity and middle school runners ran their better times of the year.
Freshman Brooke Frederick ran the 10th fastest time ever for a Fillies cross country runner as she toured the 5000M in 24:38.
This was good enough for a 40th place finish in the 96-runner field.
Harrison County had a fumble and an interception in its last two possessions while Bourbon County scored to defeat the Thorobreds, 35-28, Friday night in Paris.
This was a record-setting night for Harrison County's Nick Slucher as he broke the school record for all-purpose yards in a game and the career mark for kick-off return yardage. But all in vain.
Slucher had 362 all-purpose yards, which topped his own mark of 330 that was set last year against the same Colonels.
If any or all of the expansion comes about that is being discussed, there are going to be some super conferences.
The way talk is today the Big East is going to suffer some losses and the remaining teams in the conference better get their collective bags packed to move themselves.
Over the weekend, Pittsburgh and Syracuse began to publicly make overtures toward the ACC and many, including Coach K, were welcoming them with open arms.
Harrison County seventh grader Reese Asher led the Harrison County Thorobreds to a sixth place finish in the Bluegrass Conference Tourney held last week in Mt. Sterling.
Asher shot a nine-hole total of 40 followed by fellow seventh grader Jake Jones and sophomore Myles Davis, who each shot 46.
Sophomore Sam Levi had a 48 to round out the scoring for Harrison County in the junior varsity affair.
The Harrison County Fillies soccer team edged Lafayette Monday night 1-0 at LeBus Field to win their third straight match and improve the season mark to 5-4-1.
The tough schedule that the young (for the most part) Fillies have undertaken this season is beginning to pay off as they are rounding into a team that can play the close game well.
Sophomores Haley Carr and Marly Jenkins combined for the goal against the Lady Generals as Carr buried Jenkins' pass from the corner into the back of the visitor's net.
Monday evening the Harrison County boys' golf team toured the Mt. Sterling Country Club in their best effort of the year to finish fourth of seven teams with a team total 176 score.
This finish had the Breds defeating two teams, Montgomery County and Bourbon County, who had defeated them in dual meets this year.
Anthony Shirley shot a 38 to lead the Harrison County team in scoring followed by Shalyn Barnes (42), Zach Schneider (46) and Stephen Lemons with a 49.
The Harrison County Fillies volleyball team is hitting stride as they head into the final three weeks of the regular season.
Despite losing in a lackluster performance Tuesday night at Lexington Christian, Coach Bill Faulkner sees a good light at the end of the tunnel.
"The girls were a little out of sync tonight," he noted after the loss. "Allison Cordray, our senior setter and team leader, was out with an illness and we really missed her."

Very simple recipe that has rather a plain taste. We also added salt and pepper with our choice of herb, basil. I can also see a sauce with this using butter, basil, lemon juice, salt and chicken broth might have made it better. We will make this again since it was easy to make and fast to the table.
I followed the recipe exactly, aside from removing the chicken from the pan to make the sauce, then adding it back in at the end. I think it had good flavor (I used fresh basil and white onion), but I'm sorry I can't say it was outstanding. I was hoping for a bit more liquid, which I didn't get, and it definitely needed a little more salt and pepper at the end. I did add the butter, but it would have been better with more sauce. Adding chicken broth to make a sauce might be a big help. Also, for a novice cook the recipe might be hard to figure out, as it gives no cook time for the chicken, nor does it say when to add the garlic.
I made this tonight, and the flavors do not complement each other at all, in my opinion. I was disappointed. I didn't eat much of it at all, because it really didn't appeal to me. The combination of lemon, oregano and garlic didn't do the portobello mushrooms justice.

How Do You Treat Dog Bites?
They say that dogs are a man's best friend. They will protect you, give you companionship, and be a loyal friend. But their bite can lead to a variety of problems. It can cause minor or severe injury, depending on the degree of bite. According to the 2013 – 2014 APPA National Pet Owners Survey Statistics : Pet Ownership & Annual Expenses, there are approximately 83.3 million dogs in the United States and they are kept by 56.7 million households.
Figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revealed that there are over 4.7 million dog-bite incidents yearly. From that number, 800,000 will require medical attention and 386,000 will need emergency medical treatment. When not treated right away, dog bites can cause significant damage to underlying tissues in the skin, bones, muscles, tendons, blood vessels, or nerves. Infections include tetanus and rabies.
There are several reasons why a dog will bite. They are either scared or threatened, protecting themselves, their puppies, or their owners. So make sure to keep these in mind when near a dog. Be alert to prevent a potential bite situation. But nevertheless, if what you are afraid of happens, here are some simple first aid remedies you can do for treating dog bites:
Clean the wound immediately. Run it under warm water for a few minutes to ensure it is thoroughly cleaned. Use antibacterial soap in combination with the water.
If the bite is not bleeding, encourage it by squeezing the wound. This will help prevent bacteria from entering the wound.
Provide pain relief by taking over-the-counter painkillers such as Paracetamol or Ibuprofen.
If there is a risk of infection, it is recommended that you seek medical advice. According to the website of the Law Offices of Yvonne M. Fraser, once the bite gets infected, it can lead to blood poisoning (sepsis), infection of the endocarditis and meningitis.
Big bites may require stitches so it is best to see a doctor
Get updated on your tetanus shot. Doctors recommend a booster after a dog bite if your last immunization was more than five years ago.
Be alert for any signs of infection. If you think that the bite is getting infected, see the doctor right away. Here are the symptoms of an infected dog bite:
Worsening pain
Redness or warmth around the bite
Pus-like discharge
Dogs can be adorable to have as pets. However, they can also be deadly. Follow these treatment methods for dog bites.Read More
Malpractice and Personal Injury Claims
When illness or injury occurs, we put our trust in a healthcare provider. We innately believe that they have been well-trained and we can rest assured that we are in good hands. Unfortunately, medical errors do happen. These errors result in the worsening of injury, a lifetime of a life-altering disability, or even sudden and unexpected death. This frightful reality is known as medical malpractice.
According to the Hankey Law Office, "when a patient dies because of the negligent action or inaction of a medical professional, this is considered to be wrongful death." Unforeseen death causes an emotional upheaval for a victim's family, friends, and community. A medical malpractice attorney can help an a victim's loved ones find solace in a settlement for their emotional suffering.
Medical malpractice is an especially important case to pursue. By reporting a medical professional's mistake, you can prevent further threat of error under the treatment of the same physician. Pohl & Berk, LLP point out on its website that this is important in order to hold the medical professional at fault should be "held legally and financially accountable for the repercussions of their actions." Do not let the negligence of a medical professional go without legal consequence – you could end up saving some one's health or life.
Whether you were misdiagnosed with disease or illness, prescribed the wrong type or amount of prescription, or suffered after misuse of medical equipment, you deserve justice for the mistakes of your medical physician. Medical malpractice lawyers are ready to fight for the financial compensation and justice that you deserve as a victim of medical negligence. We seek medical attention in hopes to improve our health. If the medical attention you receive leads to worsened health, hold your medical physician liable.Read More
Criminal Defense
Penalties for drug crimes seem to be getting worse and worse as the years go on. People who are convicted of drug crimes can not only face hefty fines, but years in jail. According to the website of Ian Inglis Attorney at Law, even for minor drug crimes, people have found themselves facing severe penalties. Punishments can often be applied to one of the four types of drug charges.
The first and most well-known drug charge is possession. The punishment for this can vary from state to state based on amount and type of drug. These drugs can include pharmaceuticals, but most commonly apply to marijuana, cocaine, heroine, and methamphetamine. The charges for possession can include fines and jail time, ranging from days to years. These penalties are increased if a person is found to be in possession of an illegal substance with the intent to sell, another type of drug charge. This is also commonly known as drug dealing. The charge of possession changes to intent to sell based on the amount an individual is found with. This crime faces serious charges such as 180 days to 99 years in prison and fines of up to $100,000. There are other kind of drug charges besides these, however, Often, possessing drug paraphernalia such as pipes and syringes, can land a person in jail or with large fines. Manufacturing and trafficking/delivering drugs are also serious drug crimes. Although these crimes differ in severity, all can carry thousands of dollars in fines, years in jail, and probation.
Although a person may deal with direct penalties from the law, drug crimes can make it almost impossible for a person to find a job or even buy a house, no matter how minor the charge. As law enforcement become stricter on drugs, it is important for individuals to understand that even the most minor drug charge can carry serious punishments. No matter the kind of drug charge, a conviction can change a person's life forever.Read More
Nursing Home Abuse
When a family member becomes too elderly to properly take care of themselves, most of us take comfort in the fact that nursing homes exist in which trained professionals can ensure the well being of a loved one. Unfortunately, the terrifying truth is that nursing home abuse is a serious and all too present problem. While an individual has every right to assume that their loved one is in safe hands at a nursing home, victims are facing physical abuse, sexual abuse, malnutrition, and a number of other problems, according to the website of Habush Habush & Rottier S.C. ®. It can be difficult to even know if these problems are even happening as your loved one may not possess the ability to tell you. However, there are some warning signs you can look for.
One of the most obvious way to spot nursing home abuse and neglect is to look for changes in your loved one's physical appearance. This can include bed sores, unusual wounds, and unexplained loss of weight. You can also look for signs of poor hygiene. Another way to check is to inspect the bedding and clothing of the elderly. If you notice that their clothing is torn or stained as well as their bedding, these could be signs of abuse. There are also some nonphysical signs to watch out for as well. These include unresponsiveness, emotional withdrawal, and other strange behaviors.
Putting a loved one in a nursing home is a difficult decision faced by many. It is reasonable for an individual to assume that their family member is safe and well-taken care of in a nursing home. Unfortunately, nursing home and neglect is a serious problem leaving victims to not only face serious physical trauma, but emotional pain as well, according to the website of Ritter and Associates. When victims are not able to speak for themselves, it is important that we look our for our loved ones to prevent the ever present problem of nursing home abuse from becoming worse.Read More
Social Security Disability Benefits
Often people who were once completely healthy and able to work can become disabled and thus unable to perform properly at a job. This can cut off major finances for people and leave them struggling to support them and their family. When this is the case, an individual may be eligible to receive social security disability benefits from the government. However, understanding what disabilities qualify for social security can be confusing.
One of the most major disabilities in cardiovascular system disorders, which include a number of heart diseases. This can include chronic heart failure, such as coronary heart disease or frequent heart attacks. Not only do these and a multitude of other heart diseases affect a person on a day-to-day basis, but can make it impossible to work. Another set of diseases that carry these problems are autoimmune diseases, digestive system disorders, and skin disorders. These can all qualify for SSD if they leave a person unable to work. However, some diseases that qualify are not physical at all. Some mental disorders, even if they developed later on in life, can make a person unable to work. These include personality disorders, autism, bipolar disorder, and even depression.
Being put out of work for reasons you cannot control can leave a person in financial ruins, without the means to bring themselves out of it. Luckily for those facing these circumstances, according to the website of the Hankey Law Office, P.C., social security disability benefits can help the disabled cover the costs of housing, food, and other costs. This is why it is critical for those who have become disabled to determine if they qualify for security benefits.Read More
With the increase of prices in everything from cars to college, the need for loans has increased immensely in the past years. This can in turn lead to a rise in the amount of debt for individuals, leaving some with too much debt to handle. When this happens, filing for bankruptcy can be the best option. It is a confusing and scary process, involving loads of paperwork and decisions that have to be made. One of these decisions is whether to file for either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, two options for personal bankruptcy. Understanding the difference between these two can, however, make the decision easier.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is also known as liquidation bankruptcy. According to the website of Gagnon, Peacock, & Vereeke, P.C., chapter 7 bankruptcy involves canceling out all debts by liquidating some of your property in order to pay creditors. This can include a second car or home. This is typically the option for those who have little or no disposable income. The process takes around 3-5 months and can be extremely difficult to deal with. However, it has the benefit of completely wiping out unsecured debt and including credit card debt, according to information on the Greenway Law, LLC website.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is also known as "wage earner's bankruptcy," according to the website of Erin B. Shank, PC. This is designed for people who have regular income and simply extends the period of time in which they can pay back their debts or reduces payment amounts. While it does not completely wipe out debt, it can help you make payments in a more reasonable manner.
Bankruptcy is something that many people do not think they will ever have to turn to. However, filing for bankruptcy can often be the most viable option for those looking to get back on their feet and can be the start to a new financial future for many.Read More
Doctors Deserve Prompt Pay
Doctors are some of the hardest working professionals in the nation and provide numerous services to individuals, ranging from simple check-ups to some of the most complicated procedures. For these services, insurance companies are often required to pay doctors for their work. Unfortunately, many insurance companies can engage in deceptive practices intended to having to pay doctors for their work. This violates the Texas Prompt Payment Act of 2003 requiring insurance companies to payout within 60 days of receiving requested items and forms required for payment. Luckily, according to the website of prompt pay law firm Williams Kherkher, this law also helps medical professionals get their due compensation.
For medical professionals dealing with deceptive insurance companies, it is important to understand just how much compensation they can receive and punishments that an insurance company can receive. If an insurance company pays a claim 45 days after the deadline, they may have to pay a $100,000 fine. If they pay 49-91 days after the deadline, the fine raises to $200,000 and keeps raising the longer they take to pay out. However, the Texas Prompt Payment Act does not only cover late payments but underpayments as well. If an insurance company does not pay the full amount to a doctor for their medical services, the penalties can be similar to if they were late on their payments.
Doctors and medical professionals not only work extremely hard, but have some of the most complicated jobs in the nation. This is one of the many reasons they deserve to be fully paid for their services, despite unfair practices by insurance companies. Not being paid fully for services in the medical profession is a serious issue and should be handled as best as it possibly can be, sometimes including legal guidance.Read More
Morcellators Lawsuits
Morcellators are surgical devices that not many are familiar with. It was commonly used by Gynecologists in minimally invasive procedures, such as hysterectomy or a myomectomy, to break down large tissue growths into smaller pieces. Once thought to be a useful tool in removal of tissue with benefits such as shorter recovery time and less pain, people who had surgery using morcellators began experiencing serious problems. While the device was effective in breaking up noncancerous tissue, women who had cancerous cells started seeing these cells spread to other areas of their bodies.
The spread of cancerous cells due to the use of a morcellator occurs in women who have undetected urine cancer. While this might not sound like a common occurrence, it can occur in as many as 1 in every 370 procedures. Aside from cancer, morcellators can also cause abnormal growth of the tissue or direct harm to healthy tissue. This is why Johnson & Johnson recalled three of its power morcellators after the correlation between the device and serious medical problems was revealed. The FDA also issued an official warning to doctors to stop use of the device in women. They also put a "Black Box" warning on the device, meaning that the risks of the device far outweighed the possible benefits of using it. However, many individuals had already suffered significantly due to the device.
Women looking to undergo a fairly simple and minimally invasive surgery could face the spread of cancer cells to other parts of the body without knowing it. When a morcellator is used in surgery on a women with undiagnosed urine cancer, the medical problems that an individual has to endure can be life changing. Many women have filed Morcellator lawsuits in an attempt to seek answers and hold someone accontable for what they've had to experience.Read More
Coloring Your Hair Tech: Balayage
A woman's hair is one of the most important parts of their beauty routine. Hundreds of dollars are spent every year by individual women to maintain their locks and keep them looking their best. Aside from just a normal haircut, many women opt to get highlights to change or enhance their natural hair color. Many turn to a cheap salon or even store bought products to do the job, often ending up with mediocre results or results that last longer than a couple of weeks. This can leave many women feeling disenchanted with the process of coloring their hair and feeling less confident. Many a Houston hair salon has started offering a service known as balayage which can improve coloring results for women.
Balayage is a coloring technique that began in France in the 1970's. Rather than the traditional foiling technique used by most salons, balayage is a coloring process that involves the stylists painting on the color, leading to more effective results. The benefits of this technique go beyond the physical components, however. Balayage highlights can go 8-12 weeks without being touched up, whereas traditional foil highlights can have to be retouched in as little as 6 weeks. The longer time between highlight and coloring sessions can save an individual time and money. Aside from not having to dye your hair as often, there are other ways balayage is healthier for your hair. Since the dye does not completely saturate your hair, you can expect less damage. Balayage is also safe for pregnant women and those with allergies, as the dye does not sit on the scalp but rather just the hair.
Balayage not only has numerous health and maintenance benefits, but is more versatile as the highlights can be as soft or as strong as you prefer. Women are now looking to balayage for not only these reasons, but to feel as confident in their hair as they possibly can.Read More

BETHESDA, Md. - Hosting his own tournament for the first time, Tiger Woods bogeyed his first two holes.
Then came the rain. It didn't get much better after that. After a brief delay, Woods continued to be a much more gracious host than he planned. By the time his round was over, he had missed a 2-foot tap-in, hit a man in the face with a drive and tossed his putter in frustration at his bag several times.
His Thursday scorecard at the inaugural AT&T National included seven bogeys in a 3-over round of 73, tied for 77th place and seven shots behind five co-leaders: Vijay Singh, Jim Furyk, K.J. Choi, Joe Ogilvie and Stuart Appleby.
Woods putted 34 times, including three three-putts, and he missed every attempt longer than 8 feet.
Palmer Profile
Amarillo native Ryan Palmer shot a 4-over-par 74 in the first round of the AT&T National. He is eight shots out of the lead.
Romero leads rain-delayed Senior Open: At Haven, Wis., Eduardo Romero shot a 6-under-par 66 to grab the lead Thursday during the rain-delayed first round of the U.S. Senior Open.
Romero's score tied for the fourth-best opening round in tournament history, and it represented the latest step in a banner summer for Argentine golf. It came less than a month after Romero's countryman and friend, Angel Cabrera, became the first player from Argentina to win the U.S. Open.
Romero held a three-shot lead over another Argentine, Vicente Fernandez, and two club professionals, Jon Fiedler of Camarillo, Calif. and Ron Vlosich of Lakewood, Colo.
Play was halted because of threatening weather at 5:05 p.m. CDT. Amid thunderstorms and high winds, play was called for the day at 6:15 p.m. The 78 players who were unable to finish the round will resume at 7 a.m. today.

Abraham Hulk (1813-1897) was a Dutch nautical painter who did fantastic work, and his paintings hang in the museums of Amsterdam, Dordrecht, Haarlem and Enschede. Wikipedia has a good write-up on him here. Hulk works routinely go for just $2,000-$4,000 at auction. Sometimes, though, they blow the lid off the top of the expected range and bring in $30,000.
Sailboats on a rough sea in a slightly cloudy sky is up for auction at Nagel's in Stuttgart on January 28. The expected price is 2,500 euros ($2,732):
Boats on rough waters is slated for the Christie's London auction, January 20. The midpoint of the expected range is $3,600.
Personally, I think the first is the better picture. That said … this piece below, Sailing Ships at Dusk, is clearly better than both of the above. It was expected to go for $8,000 but brought a hammer price of $27,000 in November, 2015, at Lempertz in Cologne, Germany. There's something about these sun-breaking-through-the-clouds pictures that really appeal to bidders. I see it repeatedly. This one was also very big: 72cm x 105 cm, which probably helped.
I've inquired with Nagel as to the cost of buying, insuring and shipping a piece from Germany to the US. I suspect it would be quite a bit. Start with a 25% premium to the hammer price, then probably $200 for shipping and $100 for insurance and perhaps another 15% for VAT. So, if one got it for a hammer price of $2,800, the final bill would be nearly $4,000. Then, when you went to sell it, the reverse would apply: If you got a $2,800 hammer price the net to the seller would likely be around $2,100. That's nearly a 100% bid/ask spread. Yikes!
That said, a big reason these works go so cheap in the first place is precisely because of these gargantuan spreads. Without them they'd probably go for more.
By the way, I first became interested in the Hulk family of painters (there are about four of them) when I saw a Hendrick Hulk nautical work down at the Flagler in Palm Beach. It looked very profound so I assumed it would be a $250,000 piece. Nope. More like $2,000. That floored me and piqued my interest in this question of the gap between hammer prices and quality.

"We were struggling to come up with something as a group, we had ideas but it was such a big thing we didn't want to get wrong," said Thom Green (drums) of Alt-J on the cover art for their debut album An Awesome Wave. (more…)
"Well album artwork has always been very important to me," said Jonathan Vandenbroeck, better known as Milow, in a interview with Creative Allies. "I've released three albums, and every time I try to to really pay a lot of attention to the album artwork. And, my latest album that came out a few years ago, North and South, had actually the most ambitious artwork project so far."
"You know, we were working with this guy named Mike Perry," said Nicholas Petricca of Walk the Moon on the artist for their self-titled album.
"We were giving him ideas for what we thought the cover should be, and he was giving us stuff and everything was great, but nothing was quite right," said Petricca. "Nothing was quite fitting." (more…)

The Pride reception was an opportunity for those attending to mingle with pride parade grand marshals and politicians, as well as watch a fashion show. Politicians on hand included St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Kriseman and former Gov. Charlie Crist, who's the likely Democratic nominee to oppose incumbent Republican Gov. Rick Scott. The gay pride festival has been expanded to four days this year, with the popular parade set for Saturday and activities running through Sunday.
