Amber Heard's Sexiest Films to Date
Amber Heard is known for many roles, but our favorite is her work on The Playboy Club as sexy waitress Bunny Maureen. We rounded up some of her sexiest films for a comparison.
Amber Heard is known for many roles, but our favorite is of course her work on The Playboy Club as sexy waitress Bunny Maureen. Sure, the show ended prematurely, but having the chance to see this blonde bombshell in a signature Playboy Bunny outfit was awesome. Amber has starred in a slew of popular films and thankfully has no issues with showing off her unbelievable breasts and knockout ass. This petite beauty has stripped down in five films, including Alpha Dog, The Informers and Friday Night Lights, all of which are action packed anyway so there won't be any need to fast-forward to the good nude parts.
Amber also starred in the latest Hunter S. Thompson film, The Rum Diary, with Johnny Depp. If you know anything about Playboy, you know that Thompson played a pivotal role as one of our writers and dear friends, so we strongly urge you to see this movie. Oh, and she gets naked in that one too. Check below for our favorite Amber Heard scenes.
Drive Angry
The best part of Drive Angry is that it's just pure Amber Heard eye candy. How can you resist watching a film that's chock-full of explosions, sexy Amber Heard scenes, Nicolas Cage one-liners and fast cars?
Never Back Down
Fight clubs, karate, rebellion and the gorgeous Amber Heard. She may not appear naked in this film, but her scenes with Sean Faris are so sexy it makes up for it.
The Informers
Expect full-frontal Amber Heard from this 2008 film that follows the lives of L.A. characters in the early 1980s.
The Rum Diary
Amber plays the love interest of our dear friend Hunter S. Thompson.
The Stepfather
Remake of the 1987 thriller of the same name; Amber plays the helpless and sexy blonde — someone has to!

Conservatively Speaking
State Senator Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) represents parts of four counties: Milwaukee, Waukesha, Racine, and Walworth. Her Senate District 28 includes New Berlin, Franklin, Greendale, Hales Corners, Muskego, Waterford, Big Bend, the town of Vernon and parts of Greenfield, East Troy, and Mukwonago. Senator Lazich has been in the Legislature for more than a decade. She considers herself a tireless crusader for lower taxes, reduced spending and smaller government.
State Senator Lazich's Statement on State of the State Address
State Senator Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) released the following statement about Governor's Walker's State of the State address.
"Governor Walker lays out a simple, yet significant plan to provide tax relief to all Wisconsin residents. Workers are going to keep more of their pay check and hard-earned money, putting more money in the hands of consumers, spurring economic and job growth throughout the state.
This surplus must not be withheld from Wisconsin's families, seniors, farmers, and business owners. Wisconsin residents have been living in a tax hell far too long, it's about time we get off the backs of taxpayers and provide them much needed relief. This is taxpayers' hard earned money; bureaucrats do not deserve to spend it. I applaud the Governor's plan to apply $332.6 million in withholding table adjustments. The effect will return money to taxpayers immediately.
Our disciplined fiscal management put Wisconsin's fiscal house back in order, providing a stable economic environment for growth and close to two billion dollars in tax relief this session alone. Last fall, the legislature approved $100 million in property tax reductions. I look forward to continuing to deliver property tax relief by voting for the Governor's proposal to reduce property taxes by an additional $406 million. Gone are the days of irresponsible and reckless budgeting, resulting in billion dollar deficits, leaving taxpayers footing the bill. "

[quote user="gmen0820"][quote user="slipknottin"][quote user="allentown PA"]
agreed that would have been interesting but dont know about fairley being there still or would he have been? where did detroit pick?[/quote]
Lions picked 13th. After them, possibly the rams could have taken Fairley, but they needed a DE too, so Quinn could have been their guy the entire time. After the Rams there was really nobody else who needed a 3 tech.
Had the dolphins, skins, pats, and chargers, all essentially 3-4 teams who need guys who can two gap. Pats could have potentially taken him, but I doubt they would have.[/quote]Luiget was an ideal 3T, but the Chargers took him as a 5T. I'm sure they would have taken Fairley if he was there.[/quote]
i love how there are all these names for techs these days...it used to be called head up or outside shoulder of whichever o-llinemen..people like liguet who purely shoot the gap are lame..are there any head up players these days?

text: Maybe someone here knows the answer - I can't find it. I found some blades on E-bay with the model name on them "Gold Test" and a logo of what looks like a "CF". There's some other writing on the blade but I can't make it out it's too fuzzy - I can't even tell if it's letters or numbers. Wilson has a Gold Seal and MK has a Gold Star, but none of the brands I can find online sell a Gold Test. The winning - and only - bid was mine for the large sum of... 99 cents. So whatever they are, junk or not, they cost me 8.99 which includes the $8 shipping charge.

Reviews of this property
There is no better place to stay for vacation in Paris! I've been to Paris for many times and I can recomment this apartment more than any apartment I've been before. It is kind of small but that is typical for apartments in Paris. The rooms are very clean! I will come back!
We Stayed in the apartment at the end of june.
The apartment is not located in the center, but near The metro pyrènèes (Belleville), 10-15 min from the center by metro. That was prefect for us, in June Paris is full of tourist, so it is nearly impossible to walk/see the sights. But from this apartment we saw the real Paris.
If you stay here I would recommend you to:
- take a walk in the park: Parc des Buttes Chaumong, take time to slow down and look at the amazing nature and water.
- go north of the apartment, and see the church near Jourdaine, remember to look at all de wonderful buildings in the area.
- if you stay there a Tuesday or a Friday, you should go to the marked of Belleville, buy or look at all the fresh greens, meat and fish.
- Sit at the Cafe on the corner and drink a glass of Rose Wine.
The apartment is small, but perfect size for a couple, or two friends. There is everything you need in the small kitchen ( but not a cuttingboard ) and the bath is amazing.
The apartment is located inside a courtyard, so it is mostly Nice and quiet.
There are Big Windows in every room, so a light first floor apartment.
Nathalie is kind and a great help.
- Michael & Cecilie
We had a wonderful week in the Belleville quarter and in Nathalie´s appartment! The location is really nice with all the supermarkets and food shops around and two Metro points nearby. My husband and I especially enjoyed the Arab and Chinese food that we could find. After a full day in museums etc. we could nicely rest on the couch, take a hot shower (yes, you have to be careful, but it´s manageable) and overall have a good night´s sleep in the really comfortable bed. That being said, I wished the appartment had been cleaned a little bit better, nothing too bad, but I was going over some things myself once more to feel comfortable. You have to decide for yourself if you want to stay here with more than two people, once the sofa bed is up, you cannot walk out of the bedroom properly any more. And thanks for the hint with the fish! The smell was not too bad, but it was good to have been warned in advance.
Limited in space but very effective and quiet!! appartment for 3 persons, 4 would be rather crowdy. Only 3 chairs and a few more cups and glasses would be welcome. The kitchen is well equiped (but who uses this?) and the place is very clean. Situated in a very lively part of the city, easy to reach by car, for long term underground parking I can suggest Parking Azur, 10min walk. Absolute bonus, very clean, functional wifi, easy key pick up/return and do not miss the cheese shop across the street or the Spanish restaurant Ramona at Belleville. Carefull, the water is very hot.
Me and my two friends stayed in Nathalie's appartement only for 2 nights but flat is suitable also for longer holiday. It is very french, retro style little flat enough big for either 3 or 4 people. Appartament is located in very atractive and quiet part of Paris with little local shops, where you can buy any kind of very french specials: fresh meat in bucher for cooking, traditional chocolates and other french sweets, also many unicate presents for your nearest dearest in located on the same street Nathalie's gift shop. Very usefull thing - walking distance from the flat to metro station,takes only 5 minutes to get there. The hostes Nathalie is very profesional and flexible person, very well organized. Hope will come back to stay in Natalie's appartement ASAP to see places which we didn't manage to see in Paris this time.
Belleville apartment very nice neighborhood, quiet, overlooking a courtyard.
The metro is nearby, ditto for food stores.
Functional wifi.
The bed is very comfortable.
It was a pleasant stay, I would be willing to return.
Appartement très sympa quartier Belleville, au calme, donnant sur une cour.
Le métro est à deux pas, idem pour les magasins alimentaires.
Wifi fonctionnel.
Le lit est très confortable.
Ce fut un séjour agréable, je serais prêt à y revenir.
Small, but very smart designed flat in a pleasant neighbourhood of Paris. Very close to public transport, shops and restaurants. Ideal for two, but possible for four people (we went there with our two kids). However, if you go with four, keep in mind that the futon in the livingroom has a very thin mattress, so it is quite hard to sleep on, that's the only disadvantage for us.
Perfect apartment for a trip to Paris. The apartment is clean and modern. Metro station just around the corner. On a subsequent visit to the beautiful Paris so I would book this apartment again.
Perfect appartement voor een citytrip naar Parijs. Het appartement is schoon en modern ingericht. Metrostation om de hoek. Bij een volgend bezoek aan het prachtige Parijs zou ik zo weer dit appartement boeken.
Spent three days in the apartment and we enjoyed it. It is small but smartly decorated and well finished. The apartment is located in a nice, lively street, but the house is not from the street noise heard. The Belleville neighborhood is indeed the real Paris and there is plenty to explore. On a subsequent visit I book this apartment again and stay only in the district, so cute!
Drie dagen in het appartement geweest en we hebben er van genoten. Het is klein, maar slim ingericht en goed afgewerkt. Het appartement ligt aan een leuke, levendige straat, in de woning is echter niets van het straatrumoer te horen. De wijk Belleville is inderdaad het echte Parijs en er valt genoeg te ontdekken. Bij een volgend bezoek boek ik dit appartement weer en blijf alleen maar in de wijk, zo leuk!

UW, GE Healthcare partner for new imaging research facility
GE Healthcare to provide anticipated $32.9 million in funding
MADISON, Wis. - The University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health and GE Healthcare on Thursday announced a major partnership for creating a new imaging research facility.
The aim of the project is to ultimately improve health care with better diagnostic tools, specifically imaging technology.
Under the 10-year research agreement, GE Healthcare will provide up to $32.9 million in anticipated research support, including diagnostic imaging equipment, and UW will do the research to make the technology even better.
"This represents a remarkable opportunity to put UW-Madison at the very next cutting-edge frontier of diagnostic imaging and radiology research," said Dr. Bob Golden, dean of the UW School of Medicine and Public Health.
"And as we expand globally, the technology that we develop here will help health care around the world, as well as right here in Wisconsin," said Tom Gentile, president and CEO of GE Healthcare's Systems, GE Healthcare.
In just the past 11 years, GE Healthcare and UW researchers have collaborated to generate 80 filed U.S. patents on technology improvements.

On December 4, 2012, Star Trek Federation: The First 150 Years will be released. Officially licensed by CBS Consumer Products, this historical volume will boldly take you where no-one has gone before; exploring new corners of Star Trek canon, while revisiting and correcting aspects that, as a fan, may have you bothered. It begins with the birth of Zefram Cochrane, and ends a few years after the death of James T. Kirk. It is written by David A. Goodman — credits include Futurama, Star Trek: Enterprise, and Family Guy. I will tell you, without hesitation, if you are a fan of any, or all, of the Star Trek series and movies, you must have this book.
The first thing you will notice when you receive Star Trek Federation: The First 150 Years is the packaging. Normally, I'm not one to be impressed by how something is packaged. This is one of few exceptions. The book arrives in a fair-sized box, that is nicely designed with reflective elements.
Removing the book from the packaging reveals another splendid element. Star Trek Federation: The First 150 Years is housed in a lighted pedestal display, with a push-button greeting from Admiral Hikaru Sulu. You will be hard-pressed to not want to push the button over and over again. The book itself has a raised United Federation of Planets symbol.
Star Trek Federation: The First 150 Years contains the following:
- A Note On Sources;
- Prologue – Conchrane's Flight: 2063 – 2120;
- Chapter I – First Steps: 2120 – 2155;
- Chapter II – The Romulan War: 2155 – 2160;
- Chapter III – The Federation: 2160 – 2245;
- Chapter IV – The Edge Of Night;
- Chapter V – The New Era: 2290 – 2311;
- Selected Bibliography;
- Plus an envelope with five removable documents and a note from historian David A. Goodman.
Within each chapter are a number of paintings, official documents, logs, letters, and more.
The aesthetic value is only one small reason why you will want to own this book. There are four major reasons why Star Trek Federation: The First 150 Years is a must have in your Star Trek library.

WINCHESTER, VIRGINIA -- At approximately 2:00 AM on the morning of May 17, 2010. I was six hours into a drive home after a weekend spent visiting my relatives in Charlotte, North Carolina. I had just driven over 360 miles, and I was starting to doze off behind the wheel when I exited the interstate and pulled into the Waffle House restaurant located at 980 Millwood Pike in Winchester, Virginia to take a break.
The waitress (I think her name was **) and the cook (I don't recall his name) were extremely friendly, and after spending about a half an hour drinking coffee and engaging in conversation with them, they made sure that I was fully revived before I got back into my car and resumed my trip. I have been to Waffle House locations all over the South, and I must say that the two employees I met at this location were the friendliest ones that I have ever encountered.
My boyfriend and I were eating at Waffle House one time and we were talking with the waiter. The management is awful. The dishes are supposed to be washed in hot water but to save money, they instruct their employees to wash everything in cold water. Cold water mixed with sanitizer is only supposed to be used at the end after the soaking, scrubbing, and rinsing is complete.
Another disgusting thing they do is this: if you do not use your coffee cream packets, mayo packets, jelly packets, etc., they will rinse them off and serve them to another customer. This may not seem that disgusting to you, but you have to think about what kind of bacteria can get in those packets, especially the jelly and cream ones that are easier to open. I worked at a restaurant before and we were never instructed to do this! In fact, we probably would have been fired if we were seen doing that, that is disgusting! I realize now that you get what you pay for. I would rather pay more for better quality food, properly sanitized dishes and utensils, and unused condiment packets.
I wrote this as an informative bit because I never personally saw the employees do this. I don't have trouble believing it though based on horror stories from friends. Apparently, the health board has been called about this, but Waffle House continues to do it except for the days that health inspectors come in. Very nice.
Since Waffle House cares so little about the health of their patrons, I decided to avoid this restaurant at all costs. The food is too greasy anyway and the dishes served can easily be made at home. Omelettes, hamburgers, and cereal with milk are not complicated to make. This would be an ideal spot to eat when traveling because the food is predictable, but not if you run the risk of contracting diseases.
MOREHEAD CITY, NORTH CAROLINA -- My wife and I started dining at the Waffle House in Morehead City, North Carolina. We inquired about senior citizen discounts. The manager told us that there was none offered. I had read online (Brad's Deals) that Waffle House was listed as offering senior discounts. So I sent messages through the Waffle House website on three different occasions, wanting corporate to verify one way or the other concerning discounts for seniors. I never received any response...so I called corporate headquarters and left a message.
Someone did call me and told me that offering senior discounts was against company policy... Also, I found out from the manager of Waffle House I visited that no newspaper machine is allowed on the premises because corporate does not want to encourage patrons to enjoy that second cup of coffee and they will leave quicker. It is distressing to know that seniors are not appreciated...and that papers are not allowed to be purchased on premises to increase corporate profits.
COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA -- I always ate at Waffle House but I never watched how they make the food. But now that I paid attention to the cook, I realized they are so dirty. This happened just today around 2 AM on Aug 3. As I came, I saw the cook smoking, then I went to my table and ordered my food. The waitress went to the cook and told him my order, so he went straight to cook the food. I saw that he never used any plastic gloves, or washed his hands because he was smoking, that's so dirty.
When I stood up to my right as a consumer, and I told him that I saw him smoking and he never washed his hands, he got all mad, and said that he won't serve me, and that I was free to walk out the door. I DIDN'T WANT TO ARGUE SO I LEFT, SINCE HE KICKED ME OUT, BUT THIS IS THE LAST TIME I AM GOING THERE. THEY NEVER USE GLOVES, WHO KNOWS WHERE THEIR HANDS WERE?
WARRENTON, MISSOURI -- My mother and I went to the Waffle House located in our hometown yesterday which was 3-23-12 at 5:00 pm and could not even hear myself talk, let alone the waitress. The music was so loud, like being at a concert. My mother is blind and I have to read her the menu so I asked the girl if she could turn it down a bit. She came back and said no she couldn't because they don't have a key to get to it to turn it down.
Well needless to say, we got up and left. We have been in there before and never has the music been so loud, you can't hear anyone talk. Now I don't know if she was telling me true or not but if she was, I am telling you that they are a number of restaurants in Warrenton, and that's what we did got up and went to Denny's.
HOUMA, LOUISIANA -- I have on several occasions eaten at the Waffle House on Martin Luther King Blvd. in Houma, Louisiana. Many times I was deeply disappointed and disturbed with the cleanliness and service in this establishment. My husband and I made a final attempt on Saturday, July 25th to have supper there around 8:30 or so.
When we walked in there were egg shells in the middle of the floor. The floors are always extremely dirty and yucky. The service is sometimes O.K. but the other night, your cook was obviously not in a good mood. We ended up leaving and I don't think I will be back there until someone does something about this. It didn't just happen and I'm surprised someone else didn't complain. Thanks.
TUNICA, MISSISSIPPI -- Entered Waffle House in Tunica, MS and found a booth. Every one greeted us as we entered, the service went downhill after that. Took 20 minutes for our server to come over to take our order. Got our drinks, then set there another twenty to twenty five minutes waiting on our food.
Husband finally received a waffle (had ordered the meal with waffle, eggs, bacon, grits toast). Then we waited another fifteen minutes and I finally received my order of bacon egg and cheese biscuit. The sandwich came without an egg on it, so sent it back, took another 10 minutes to get it back. In the meantime, husband was still waiting for his additional food. Finally received his plate and they had put potatoes instead of grits on his plate.
We never received an apology for anything regarding the mix up in food or the food being late. Worse service we have every received in a Waffle House. The staff was too interested in telling jokes and talking with each other to handle the customers.
Also the floor was horrible. Had food all over it mixed with used napkins. Had the place been busy, we might have understood the mix up in the orders, however it was not busy at the time. Several patrons had left the restaurant while we were there, without receiving their orders. We started to leave, just as some of our food came. Will never try this place again...
CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA -- Two or so weeks ago, I went to a concert with my boyfriend and one of our mutual friends (who is male) and Carowinds in NC/SC. The concert ended around midnight, and we were all starved afterwards. While trying to decide where to eat, we debated about going to a few places, and then the other male friend suggested that we go to the Waffle House a few miles from where we were. I had previously never been there, so I didn't ask if we could go somewhere else. God, I wish I had.
We get there, and the place is swarming with flies and some sort of unknown crawling insects. Being guys, they were happily ordering hash browns and grilled cheeses, while I hesitated to touch anything. Our waiter was sneezing and coughing everywhere, and muttered something about having the flu but having to come into work anyway. After that, I was already VERY hesitant to eat anything. Then, I watched as a female employee opened boxes of raw meat and picked up countless bloody hamburger patties and strips of bacon with no gloves and shove them into a refrigeration device.
After she was finished, she just left all the blood and boxes sitting there, walked over to a bucket of dirty water, swished her hands around for literally three seconds, and proceeded to make my waffle right next to all the hamburger remnants. You know that there's something seriously wrong when the hygiene in a restaurant makes a sixteen year old freak out. I wouldn't suggest eating here under any circumstances, let alone bringing your kids here.
BILOXI, MISSISSIPPI -- On Memorial Day I had guest from California staying with me and I took them to breakfast at the Waffle House on Cedar Lake Road in Biloxi, MS. I had eaten there the day before and on several occasions before then. ** the waitress was excellent and the food good.
The problem I had was there was another employee (a girl with several tattoos on her neck) who was obviously having a "BAD DAY". She was slamming dish racks and making loud noises with the dishes she was handling. She was also making several loud comments as she worked, this continues the entire time we were there and I had a headache when I left.
I also expressed my dissatisfaction about that employee with **, she told the other employee that I had said, "if she were having such a bad day, she should go home." From then on that employee stared at me with malice in her eyes, as I was paying the ticket at the register, she looked at me and started slamming racks of silverware and dishes, I suppose as a last non-verbal comment.
As I said I have eaten at many Waffle Houses across the country and have never experienced anything like that and hope to never again have to. I don't know who the manager was that day, but being in public service myself, I would have addressed the problem with the employee. Many of the other customers were also aware of the problem from the looks they were given each other. Thank you for listening to my concerns. Customer service always comes first. This was disruption in the workplace and I'm sure I will eat again at other waffle Houses but not at that one. Thank you.

Yesterday we checked out the beaches of St. Louis. At Hydrobase. That means we were at the atlantic ocean. It was amazing. The waves were unbelievable. At times it looked like they were 2 meters high. Quel spectacle !!! I could just watch for ages. Again we chose a nice hotel to chill at the whole afternoon with a pool and good meals. That was when we said - "this is how we imagined our semester abroad to be";)
I also realized learning french is gonna be a real challenge for me, but also really good since i usually start talking before i know what i wanna say. But that just doesnt work anymore ;)
Today will be our first class in Wolof - the language most spoken here.

The Rangers unveiled some Texas-sized improvements at the ballpark Tuesday, from a 3-pound pretzel to a new high-definition video board over Home Run Porch that is six times larger than the old one.
The 5,042-square-feet video board is part of $13 million in upgrades the Rangers have made to the 17-year-old ballpark since last season. Other improvements include a total overhaul of the stadium's sound system, installation of 800 high-definition televisions throughout the ballpark and a 725-square-foot HD video board over center field that will provide up-to the minute scores and statistics during games.
Team president Nolan Ryan said"It's our commitment to our fans' experience at the ballpark. A lot of these things will enhance the game. I think fans will appreciate that along with another great season."
The Rangers Opening Day game against the Boston Red Sox starts at 3:05 p.m. Friday.
As the NBA's leading scorer, Kevin Durant is the kind of decoy that's hard to ignore.
The Oklahoma City Thunder used him to perfection to beat the Golden State Warriors 115-114 in overtime Tuesday night.
Durant took his place on the right side of the lane and headed toward the free-throw line as though he was getting ready to receive a pass, just as fellow All-Star Russell Westbrook took off on a drive to the basket.
The result: a foul against Stephen Curry with 11.4 seconds left, leading to Westbrook's game-winning free throw.
WASHINGTON (AP)—Each NFL player who contributed to a lockout fund will be able to begin collecting up to a total of about $60,000.
After setting aside union dues and royalties during recent seasons, eligible players may start drawing from the fund April 15.
NFL Players Association head DeMaurice Smith said on March 18 that money was available to help players while they are not receiving paychecks during the lockout, which owners imposed after the collective bargaining agreement expired. Smith would not provide details.
The NFLPA sent players an email—a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press—to let them know its board of player directors "approved the payout from the Lockout Fund to begin on April 15, in six installments or until the lockout ends."
Players were instructed to fill out a direct deposit enrollment form attached to the email.
NFL.com first reported Tuesday about the NFLPA email.
Negotiations for a new CBA broke off March 11. The union announced that day it was dissolving itself and no longer represented the players. That allowed players to file a class-action antitrust lawsuit in federal court. Hours later, at midnight, the owners locked out the players, creating the NFL's first work stoppage since 1987.
A hearing on players' request for an injunction to lift the lockout is scheduled for April 6 in St. Paul, Minn.
The main sticking point throughout contract talks was how to divide the NFL's more than $9 billion in annual revenues.

Donors to the Lake Charles Symphony will be able to cast their vote for the music played during the Symphony's People's Choice Overture in February through their donations. (Special to the American Press)
Last Modified: Monday, October 08, 2012 8:53 PM
Lake Charles Symphony conductor Bohuslav Rattay has come up with an idea to let the audience have a hand in selecting one of the pieces that the orchestra will play at the next concert.
He has chosen three pieces that use similar-size orchestras: Debussy's "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun," Rimsky-Korsakov's "Capriccio Espagnol," and Rimsky-Korsakov's "Russian Easter Festival Overture."
Votes may be cast for a favorite by voting with dollars, raising funds for the symphony's programs while getting symphony-goers involved. The "People's Choice Overture" will be performed at the Feb. 2 concert.
Voting may be done through December by mailing a check to the Lake Charles Symphony, P.O. Box 3102, Lake Charles, LA 70602.

Kristen Stewart's First Shoot Of 2013: She Looks Edgy In 'V' Magazine
The star shows off her edgy side in this stunning shoot for the latest issue of the mag — and you can check out all the pics right here!
Kristen Stewart has landed her first magazine cover of 2013 — and what better way to kick off a new year than with a spread in V magazine? For the shoot, the star shows off her edgy side and the whole theme has a very minimalistic vibe. On the cover, the star has her hair swept to one side and she's smouldering, her eyes fixed in a sultry stare.
Shot by Inez & Vinoodh, inside the mag the star is seen wearing an array of black and white separates. There's the thin white tank she's seen wearing on the cover, revealing a black bra underneath. The rest of the look consists of a pair of black pants, a belt, and lace-up flats. The star also looks so pretty in a white blouse with her wet hair styled back off her face — she looks flawless! The star also shows off a white maxi dress and a silk, spaghetti-strap tank that dips dangerously low to reveal a portion of her chest.
Her kohl-rimmed eyes and nude glossy pout are the perfect compliment to the very minimalistic yet chic shoot. Kristen looks so sexy, confident and comfortable — she's such a natural in front of the camera! Given her personal preference for dressed down ensembles, we don't doubt that she must have loved the outfits chosen for the shoot — they are so consistent with her sense of style!
Inside the mag, KStew gives us a hint of what's in store for the star in 2013, and she discusses her racy role in On The Road.
Kristen's strong stare in this sexy shoot is simply stunning — and I can't wait to see what other spreads she'll land in the upcoming year! What do you think of Kristen's latest photo shoot? Do you like that the mag kept it edgy yet simple or do you prefer seeing Kristen get all glam?

With touring plans, crowd calendar and a wait time app, Touringplans.com has everything you need to plan out and enjoy your day. The trick is making sure you follow their advice and not wander off.

Vacationing with her husband and friends on the west coast of Mexico, she tragically died from asphyxiation from water she breathed in while swimming in the Pacific Ocean.

Sports and activities increasing graduation rates of African Americans
COLUMBIA, Mo. - Nearly 50% of black men are arrested at least once for a non traffic crime by the time they turn 23; 30% by the age of 18 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
In Columbia, the director of the boys and girls club says African-American men can reduce that statistic through a quality education and sports.
"We have some work to do in our community as far as African Americans to get our kids through school and making sure they are graduating on time. We definitely have some work to do," said Deronne Wilson, Columbia Boys and Girls club.
"It is still troublesome but at least we are making in roads here and there in the Columbia public school system," said Laura Nauser, 5th Ward council woman.
Through more students participating in school sports and activities the school system is making a difference.
According to Bruce Whiteside, athletic director for the Columbia school district, adding Battle High School and starting sports in eighth grade, there is an 28% increase in participation seen in fall sports compared to last year.
"I think by more doors opening that you see discipline and crime and stuff going down in schools because more kids can get involved," Wilson said.
Disciplinary actions are down per CPS numbers.
The department of elementary and secondary education shows the drop out rate for African American high school students is more than double the average drop out rate.
The graduation rate among black high school students is 72.1 compared to more than 89% for white students.
"One thing that surprised me from these statistics is that black graduation is increasing so that is a wonderful statistic because you always here such negative statistics all the time so it's nice to see the trends move in a more positive direction," said Nauser.
Jabari Brown is a Mizzou basketball player hailing from Oakland; a city known for gang activity.
"When people find out I'm from Oakland they are surprised I play basketball they ask don't you guys just shoot each other out there," said Brown.
But since the age of four, Brown's had basketball to help keep him on a path leading him to Columbia.
"I think it did and just it's the kind of choice you have to make. I have friends that used to play basketball and aren't doing it as well right now so I feel like it's just - that definitely helped but part of it is making the right decisions and the right choices," Brown said.
"It's exciting, it's living on the edge and it's glorified in our movies and pop culture and music and so we've got the people they look up to idolizing this kid of lifestyle and there are people on the other side saying it's not," said Nauser.
You know we are competing with that so i think unfortunately that glorification of gang culture or criminal behavior is winning out in a lot of instances."Nauser said.
The summer of 2013, there were ten shootings in a three month span, one killing a 17 year old African American man.
"Is losing a friend that you played athletics with something you've experienced?
Yeah I've got a few; some in jail, some passed away. it's tough but it's life," Brown answered.
Tough but not impossible. Wilson is also a coach for a boys varsity basketball team.
He stresses the importance for young black men to have a mentor, a positive male influence in their life - like a coach.
On the field, hardwood, baseball diamond; any positive outlet for young people to stay away from these kind of life choices.
"A lot of our kids the people they look up to are athletes, you know what i mean, that's motivation too - it used to be the commercial i want to be like mike," Wilson said.
Wilson and Nauser say the main influence to keep any young adult off the streets and out of trouble is through a good education, and if the way to do that is by being on a sports team and getting good grades to be able to play - then "be like mike."

My friend and I booked via Wimdu for the first time. I was more optimistic about the experience that she was. However we had jointly agreed to stay at the Sagrada Familia Apartment. Firstly it is superbly located 2 blocks for the iconic landmark. Ironically despite the 1000's of visitors at the Basilica each day, 2 blocks away it feels local and peaceful (although the bars below can make a little noise if you are an early to bed person. It feels very special to be able to see glimpses of this UNESCO marvel from the apartment as well as walk past it each day. The Metro stop is also 1-2 blocks away, making it easy to get in and out of the city suburbs that have other sites and places of interest (L5 - blue line). Re getting the keys, it is a pain having to call from the airport and arrange for someone to meet you at a particular time, when other airbnb type sites have key boxes so you can arrive more freely. Plan 2 hours from landing to arriving in the city if you go by train certainly.
Martin -our key man was very nice and helpful. It would help nevertheless if WIMDU actually had the correct address. There are 2 building on 436 Career De Mallorca. This particular one is 436 B (opposite Santander bank). As a result meeting out key exchange was a mix up. However all was well after that first hiccup. The apartment is not as big as the photos, nor is it as modern or appealing. We both found it very average. The kitchen is tiny and poorly equipped we felt.. The bathroom not much bigger. There is a double bed, 1 tiny cupboard single room and a pull down single in the office.
It is ideal for 2 people regarding places to put suitcases etc but not inviting enough for you to want to chill on the couch and relax. Saying that we knew we would be out most of the time but that is besides the point.
You pay approx 40 euros for cleaning. I am not sure who gets that money but we found it quite unclean, needing to wipe surfaces and clean crockery first before use.
The little lift is super handy nestled in the hollow of the stair case i- which is old and atmospheric. Also this is the only rented apartment in the building so there is no party noise elsewhere.
The shower pressure is OK. NB. you are only given 1 toilet roll so be prepared! There are no bathroom toiletries except a half empty cheap hand soap dispenser. It felt tacky.
Overall the apartment is quirky in so much it is in an old quarter and is typical of this part of the city. There is a lovely bakery next to the building and cute little bars down below and up towards the Sagrada on the left (after Santander) on Carrer De Mallorca.
Sadly the beds are dreadful as are the pillows. Despite street noise, our inability to sleep was based on poor quality mattresses and flimsy pillows. A real shame.
The little balcony off the double bedroom is nice to enjoy with a night cap or morning cuppa, especially as you can see the Sagrada Familia so closely.
For convenience to the SF Basilica and the Metro, it is well positioned. For quality I am sure you can find better for the money (although maybe not so close to such a world icon as this!?)
Wohnung super zentral, gut ausgestattet. insgesamt deutlich kleiner als präsentiert aber daran gewöhnt man sich schnell. Nachteil: extrem laut weil direkt an einer Ampel und schlafen geht trotz Ohrstöpsel nur mit Klimaanlage- Fenster sind bombastisch dicht. Läden und Restaurants rings um die Blöcke alles da, Metro 100 meter. Innenstadt 15 Minuten und Strand 40 Minuten jeweils einmal umsteigen. ( T10 Tickets raus lassen kostet eine Fahrt 1€ übertragbar!!)Blick auf Sagrada.. einfach toll. Preis Leistung stimmt. Es war schön dort. Kontakt super,Keine Endreinigung nötig, einfach gehen... Perfekt.
Io e la mia famiglia (4 persone) abbiamo soggiornato per una settimana presso l'appartamento "Sagrada Familia view with balcony" (luglio 2016).
Aspetti positivi:
- posizione dell'appartamento eccezionale, letteralmente a due passi dalla Sagrada Familia
- stessa cosa vale per la fermata della metropolitana, averla avuta praticamente sotto casa ha agevolato moltissimo i nostri spostamenti
- minimarket a disposizione nei pressi dell'appartamento
- aria condizionata efficiente
- i collaboratori di Oxis sono stati efficienti e puntuali nelle risposte e nella restituzione del deposito cauzionale.
Aspetti negativi:
- la piccola cucina non è il massimo, ogni mobiletto puzza di stantio e sono riuscita ad usare solo due pentole, perché le altre padelle erano arrugginite (andrebbero cambiate tutte)
- la biancheria da letto e da bagno molto migliorabile, anche se in teoria era pulita aveva macchie permanenti
- una delle stanze singole affaccia con la finestra su di un cavedio interno che conduce alle cucine di un ristorante. Per cui spesso la stanza si impregnava di un odore ben poco gradevole e le luci accese ed il vociare delle cucine durava fino a tardi.
Con pochi accorgimenti l'appartamento può diventare perfetto.
이 호스트의 또 다른 숙소후기
After reading reviews (rather bad) I was afraid this apartment. But - surprise! Everything was OK, like on photos. No problem with hot water, I didn't see any cockroach ( I took a remedy for these insects), Beautiful, huge apartment with soul. Apartment was cleaned, three bathrooms were cleaned, towels and bedding were also cleaned. Yes, the furnishings in bathroom were a bit tired but it wasn't a problem. It was a bit loud in the rooms from the street. Good localization, close to the subway ( Urgell station - L1 red line). Professional contact with the host. Ideal place for group of few people - we were seven.
Two thumbs down.
We spent a full week in this apartment. We expected a basic, no frills apartment. and that's exactly what it is. Rooms, as usual, are smaller than they appear in the pictures. We were pleased to find it clean and containing the basics for our stay, and communication upon our arrival was very good. We discovered a significant plumbing issue upon arrival, but the management had a plumber on-site within minutes and the problem was fixed after several hours of work. The unit is located on the back of the building which insulates it from noise from the street. It was noisy on Friday and Saturday nights, however, which I'm sure is true of any place in a central location of Barcelona. And the location was excellent! We really liked that there was a open square, of sorts along the street in front of the building with several outdoor cafes. La Rambla is about a five minute walk along a charming street. The Universitat subway station is right around the corner in a Square and I highly recommend the cafe BuenasMigas (next to the Starbucks) for terrific morning pastries and coffee. I also must recommend the cafe Flax and Kale that is only several doors down from the apartment. Great food, is always busy, and on a nice day, check out they're 2nd floor terrace. But back to the apartment, because of it's location within the building, the elevator does not stop at it's floor, so there will be some stairs either way, but very few. One of the showers is VERY small but gets the job done. Also, the apartment does not get any natural light or have any views, but the little terrace in back is nice for coffee and seeing a piece of sky, as long as you don't mind seeing the neighbor's laundry out to dry, which we certainly didn't. If you are 4 or five people looking for basic accommodation in a very good location, you would do well to consider this apartment.
My teenage son and his friends stayed here for 5 days. They thought the flat was great, excellent location, close to the metro and about 40 min walk to the beach. Lovely bakery nearby. Clean and very comfortable. They paid the deposit in cash and got it back at checkout, no problems. Easy check in and check out.
Great apartment, really good location in Barcelona. Communication was great, everything went without any problems. Can recommend it!!
Good location, clean apartment, great service!

So my buddy shot this hoodie and gave it to me since he didn't want it. He also passes on coots, which I actually like. Being an adventurous carnivore, and a decent cook, I decided to try it out. I've been saving pork fat to make sausage for a while so I took one breast and mixed it with an equal amount of pork fat, and chopped it up. Put in a little salt, hot pepper, gran garlic, and Italian seasoning, chopped it up some more and made little sausage patties in the frying pan. I didn't want to over season since I wanted to actually taste the merganser meat.
Verdict: I found it very bland. It actually reminds of round eye beef. It didn't smell bad while cooking it. I put on more salt; this would be double what I put in originally, and it actually turned out OK. While it certainly isn't the best tasting, it isn't offensive. It just needs to be well seasoned. I wouldn't hesistate to kill one.
Next time I'm going to put more of everything I put into it. Hot dipping sauce wouldn't hurt.

Reviews of this property
2 adolescents (séjour 5 jours) :
Excellent contact avec l'hôte, Paula, qui a été très arrangeante (caution en euros plutôt qu'en livres) pour la venue de nos deux adolescents à Londres. Le contact de Matt qui les a attendu devant l'appartement était très sympa et d'autant plus qu'il parlait aussi français. Pour ce qui est du logement lui-même, il est parfaitement situé en centre ville, proche de tout (des supermarchés, des pubs, d'Oxford Street et de Baker Street (où il y a plein d'arrêts de bus), dans une ambiance sure même le soir.
Le logement est parfait, seul le confort du lit est plus adapté à un court séjour. Si ce dernier point était amélioré, nous manquerions pas de relouer pour un prochain séjour.
Le studio est très bien situé, en plein centre-ville, à 5 minutes à pied d'Oxford Street, dans un quartier très agréable, plutôt huppé.
L'appartement est assez petit mais très bien agencé, il y a tout le confort nécessaire et à notre arrivée nous avons eu droit à de petites attentions très agréables. Notre interlocuteur, Matthew, a été très sympathique, à l'écoute et prévenant.
En revanche, l'appartement est situé au sous-sol donc il y fait un peu sombre (mais ce n'est pas dérangeant si l'on est dehors toute la journée), le côté du mur près du lit mériterait un petit rafraichissement, et le parquet fait défaut à certains endroits, mais ce ne sont que des détails. Dans l'ensemble, le séjour a été agréable! Je recommande ce studio pour les week-ends et courts-séjours!
Aunque la dirección del apartamento no es realmente el nº 37 sino el 75, el apartamento tiene muy buena localización, a 150 m de Oxford Street y de la parada de metro de Bond Station. Es un estudio pequeño pero cómodo si vas a estar pocos días en la ciudad. Matheu es muy amable y fue muy atento con nosotros. La parte negativa es que es sótano, la wifi mejorable y y la cama no es demasiado cómoda para muchos días. El estudio está equipado con todo lo necesario. Silencioso. Buena relación calidad-precio.
Reviews for this host's other properties
The flat is perfectly located in Marleybone in walking distance to Oxford strreet, Madame Tussauds and Hyde Parrk. Matt was very friendly and supportive. Supermarket and bank closeby. Kittchen, living room and bath are very well equipped / cozy / clean. If you travel with 4 there is enough room however it is hard to find for all a place to eat; we had to do some moving of furniture to achieve that. The problem for us was that the bedrooms in particular the beds / matrasses would urgently need renewal. Sleeping was a challenge for all of us! Therefore all in all just a 7.
We stayed there from the 3rd until the 7th of September 2015.
Very nice house and host. We didn't meet Paula but she gave us a really nice "welcome gift" (some peanuts and red wine). Matt was very nice though we were half an hour late on the day we arrived. The day we had to leave the apartment at 10.00 but Matt kept our luggage until 14.00PM, that was very nice of him!
The house is very well located, with Baker Street and Merylebone Station, and a lot of bars, pubs, restaurants and shops. If I were going to London again, I'd stay in this house again without a doubt.
Thank you for everything Paula and Matt!
I stayed at Paula's apartment for 5 nights. The location of the apartment is very good, just a few steps to the Bond Street. Although the bathroom needs to be shared, but it was always empty whenever I needed to use it. The kitchen is simple but enough to leave some breakfast in the fridge and cook something simple with the microwave and stove. Matt is great, who gave me a warm welcome and explained everything in detail.
Well located, a clean and cosy room, and a warm welcome from Mathew - thank you very much! I had all a needed and had a great time. The only minus is that it's a bit noisy from the pub opposite the street and from the other rooms in this house.
The over all trip was very good. Matthew is very friendly. The room itself was very small, but clean. For just a city trip it's enough. The kitchen wasn't on the best level. The cooking plate stayed cold forever so it was only possible to use the oven.
Location was great but apartment needs some maintenance. In addition there was a strange smell at our arrival,
Matthew was very friendly and helpful!
I truly enjoyed staying in this room during my stay in London. The easy access to Oxford street and the Jubilee line made getting around super easy.
The room was exactly as pictured and was quite clean. Mathew (who will be meeting you at the flat) was a great help in getting situated and acquiring anything I needed (ironing board and power adapter). He is a incredibly nice man and I wish I could of said goodbye to him.
This neighborhood is very relaxed and easy to get around. I never once felt like it was unsafe during the night or day.
If you stay here during the cold months the heater in the room will make it feel like the tropics. So for your own sake, don't turn the heater on 12.
If you are trying to be frugal on food, across the street from the apartment is a place called Bonne Bouche Patisserie. You can buy very tasty sandwiches for £1.50, plus as many sweets as your body can handle.
If you're looking for an authentic, non-tourist pub, try the Tudor Rose. It is a 3 minute walk west and the food/drinks are reasonably priced.

I received a nomination for "One of Hardin County's Finest Cooks" for a young lady, Angela Robinson, with a passion not just for cooking but creating meals.
Angela's son, Zachery, 4, is the main beneficiary of her art, but she has many appreciative admirers of her culinary skills.
The lady that nominated Angela said she is creative, adventurous in her cooking and very taste conscious about her meals. She also presents them with love and an eye for beauty.
Growing up with a stay-at-home mom, Angela was at her mom's side on a stool in the kitchen chopping and stirring and being interested in all kinds of food preparation.
Her mom is German with Italian and Swedish roots, so Angie, as her friends call her, has a wide range of international recipes she creates and presents to her friends and family. She even has been invited to cook dinner in the home of friends on several occasions and she does it with a joyful smile. The same joyful smile her tasters have on their faces once they try her food.
Angela now has her own food blog and hosts a separate food Facebook page called "What's for dinner?"
Her friend adds, "I remember one time she dropped by and I was not prepared for her visit. I was sorry not to be able to offer her anything but a soft drink, thinking that all I had in the house were just condiments and mustard soup is not something I count as food. She swiftly went through my kitchen and found some things that she made into a delicious meal. My husband came home and was all excited from the smell and not only ate the dinner with gusto but ate the leftovers around midnight."
She added even further, "I'm a pretty good cook, but Angie is a culinary artist. She sees a possible meal, where others see random groceries."
"One of Hardin County's Finest Cooks" would not be complete without Angela Robinson. Check out Angela's blog for more of her recipes, www.facebook.com/1whatsfordinner1.
Nora Sweat, author of "Mama and Me," is a native of Hardin County and a retired home economics/ family and consumer science teacher. She can be reached at email@example.com or by mail at 408 W. Dixie Ave., Elizabethtown, KY 42701.
Mmmmmm Goulash
1 pound chopped beef
1 pound chopped pork
2 large onions
2 green bell peppers
1 red bell pepper
2 cloves of garlic
2 packets of brown gravy mix
1 packet of chili mix
1 tbsp oil
Chili powder
Garlic powder
Salt and pepper
Chop the onions and then fry the beef and pork in the oil with the onions.
Keep frying until the juices die down. When there is hardly any moisture left in skillet, add a cup of water. Let the meat continue to boil. When the juices evaporate, add yet another cup of water and repeat two to three times until there is somewhat of a brown coating on the meat and the onions are barely visible. Once that happens, it will be the last time to add water and boil.
Chop all vegetables and half the cloves of garlic. At this point, Place all the beef/pork mixture in a slow cooker. Once the vegetables are chopped, add to the slow cooker. Add the gravy and chili mixes, along with the appropriate amount of water and allow to cook for a short time. Then add spices. Use a hearty amount of paprika with lid off - and pour it in and then add four or five shakes of chili powder, three or four shakes of garlic powder and a pinch of cumin.
Let it cook through, boil so the gravy thickens, and then let it simmer for at least an hour, stirring occasionally.
Goulash is best served over Rotini pasta. It can be served over rice, it could be eaten over boiled potatoes or you can eat it like a stew.
Spaghetti Carbonara
1 quart Half and Half
1 quart Heavy Whipping Cream
1 package ham
1 package bacon
1 large onion
1 clove of garlic
7 slices of American Cheese.
The amounts for the recipe are guidelines. Feel free to use two onions or two cloves of garlic or nine slices of cheese. The minimum of cheese recommended though is seven.
Dice bacon and ham and fry. After about 5 to 8 minutes, add the onion and garlic. Make sure your ham starts curling and your onions are transparent. Add the half and half and whipping cream.
This meal can feed six people and still have leftovers. Cook over medium-high heat at first and then turn it to medium low. Once your sauce starts bubbling, add the cheese, torn into pieces; turn it to med-low and let it cook for 30 to 45 minutes to make sure it thickens up. Add salt to taste.
5 chicken breasts
1 large onion
1 large red bell pepper
1 large green bell pepper
1 package of tortillas
1 package of shredded cheddar cheese
1 can of diced tomatoes with green chilies
1 can of enchilada sauce
Sour cream
Chili powder
Mexican seasoning
Adobo seasoning
Cayenne pepper
Dash of oil
Dash of soy sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
2 slices of cheese (optional)
Shredded lettuce (optional)
Corn (optional)
Chop the peppers and onions, set aside. Chop chicken breasts, then dice and place in a medium sized bowl. Shred the lettuce and set aside. The bowl is where you will be mixing the seasonings into the chicken. Start by adding a dash of oil and dash of soy sauce. Then, depending on taste preferences, season your chicken. If you like Mexican foods a bit on the spicy side, add 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Then you can add chili powder and Mexican seasonings. Mix with diced chicken pieces and allow it to set so it soaks up some of the marinade. Add onions and peppers, and toss so the seasonings are spread through, and place all into a heated skillet.
After the chicken cooks awhile, and it becomes somewhat white and the onions are see-through, pour in the can of tomatoes. Allow to simmer on medium heat stirring occasionally to evaporate some of the juices. Add the can of enchilada sauce, and mix well with the chicken and vegetables. At this point add the two optional slices of cheese. Allow to simmer.
When you've noticed a good decrease in liquid in the skillet, it's time to prep the tortilla. Take the tortilla you want and lay it out on a microwavable plate. Cover it with shredded cheese. Place it in the microwave until the cheese is melted.
With a ladle, scoop up some mixture and place it on half of the tortilla. Fold it closed, and again, cover it in cheese and place it in the microwave. When that cheese too has melted, smother it in sour cream and salsa, place the lettuce on the side. Serve with Mexican Rice-a-Roni.

HTC has produced a whole raft of great smartphones over the years with its more recent Android models picking up our recommended awards like they were free memory sticks at a tech trade show. Its latest offering is the HTC Desire S that doesn't pack in a headline grabbing dual-core processor, fancy camera, or ginormous screen but is a beautifully made, classy smartphone that should be high on your wish list.
As ever with HTC devices, the Desire S makes an unassuming entrance in its plain white box but as soon as you clap eyes on the device itself you know you're in for a treat. Largely wrapped in an aluminium frame, and with a sizeable slab of glass adorning the front, it just exudes class. Not that this is anything new for HTC, with its Desire, Desire HD, Desire Z, Legend and 7 Mozart, to name but a few, having proved the Taiwanese company knows how to make beautifully crafted handsets. Like the Desire HD, there are a few gaps here and there where you can see through to the circuitry below, which is a bit unnerving but we doubt this should cause problems in normal use.
Said aluminium is finished in an anodised black while two soft-touch black plastic sections on the back allow the internal aerials to do their job. Set into the top section of plastic is the camera, its flash, and the speaker while the bottom section slides off to provide access to the battery, SIM slot, and microSD card.
Due to the way this housing works, you can't hot swap SIM or microSD cards, so you will have to power down the device every time - a small grievance but a grievance nonetheless. The phone comes with a decent 1.1GB chunk of internal storage for storing apps on while the 768MB of RAM will help to ensure you seldom run out memory.
It's not just the overall design that pleases with the Desire S, it's the little touches as well. The bevelled edges that surround the earpiece and front facing camera have a touch of class while the silver strips that are the power and volume buttons feel solidly planted yet have a wonderfully light but defined action. On the left edge you'll also find a microUSB socket for hooking the phone up to a computer or charging via an adapter, while on the top edge is the now obligatory headphone jack.
Just below the earpiece cut out, and set into the glass surface, is a small LED that glows red when charging and flashes green when you've got a new message of some sort.
Below the screen, and also incorporated into the same sheet of glass as the display are the four standard Android buttons. Sadly they don't have the funky rotating feature of the HTC Incredible S, whereby they flip round to match whichever way you're holding the phone, but they're tidy and responsive. One slight inconvenience is that, because they're not physical buttons, you can't press one of them to activate the screen, leaving you having to always stretch to the power button to unlock the phone.
There are a couple of further slip ups as well. The lack of a dedicated button for the camera is the big let down as it means you're left to prod away at the screen when taking shots, which isn't always the easiest action to perform while maintaining a firm grip on the device. Also missing is a miniHDMI socket for piping video straight out to your TV. Frankly, the latter is not something we would miss as we don't really see the point of it but it's something some rivals, such as the Motorola Milestone Xt720, do offer.

We have a several lavender bushes in our yard that are not only covered in honeybees but several alternative pollinators. I recognize many of them, but I'm having a hard time identifying 2. Hopefully my photos are enough to help identify them.
The first looks almost tiger striped and is very mellow. Keeps to itself. Approximately 1/2 larger than a honeybee.

Yesterday, Morning NewsDesk Host Kristin Feledy reported on many of the key mobile device makers, including Apple, Samsung and RIM, joining forces and sending a letter to Congress, pleading for more airwaves to accommodate the rapidly growing numbers of smartphones and tablets. They said Congress should encourage federal users to "become more efficient, to share with one another, to vacate, or to lease their spectrum." Christmas came early for these companies when the FCC made a step in that direction yesterday, by fulfilling their wishes and allowing cellular services on a large block of satellite spectrum held by Dish Network. This is exactly the move that those device makers were looking for. SiliconANGLE Contributing Editor John Casaretto commented on how significant this is for those companies and consumers as well. He said, "It's absolutely big. There's this surging consumer demand for mobile data capacity." He explained that this is part of a move by the FCC to free up to 500 megaHertz of spectrum for mobile broadband by the year 2020.
Casaretto speculated on Dish Network's options with this spectrum, saying that it's possible Dish could opt to launch their own national LTE service, but it's more likely that they will sell the rights to another carrier. Regarding Dish building their own LTE network, he said, "It's a difficult market, and I think they're going to be looking at offloading this somewhere and doing the right thing [for consumers]."
The FCC also approved plans to auction off another set of frequencies next year, known as the H Block, to raise money for an LTE public safety network around the U.S. The H Block consists of two smaller bands of spectrum, each 5 megahertz across. It sits next to frequencies that Sprint is already using for LTE. Obviously Sprint will be in the front row bidding for these airwaves since it currently only has half as much LTE spectrum as its competitors AT&T and Verizon.
EE, the pioneer carrier of the U.K.'s first 4G network has announced its rollout will expand to seventeenmore towns by March 2013, allowing approximately four million people access to its network. It will also increase the network density in metropolitan areas already covered by the rollout. Casaretto said they are using a parallel strategy in which they are continuing to work on its network density in areas where 4G is already enabled, as well as upgrading its network backbone to support super fast speeds, such as DC-HSPA.
Sprint has made an offer to buy the rest of Clearwire for $2.1 billion. Sprint already owns more than half of Clearwire, and obtaining Clearwire's remaining assets would give it more leverage. Casaretto concluded, "At the root of it, it's about gaining more airwave spectrum. It's a never-ending race." Casaretto noted that Sprint has been on a buying tear, including airwave acquisitions from U.S. Cellular. See the entire segment with Kristin Feledy and John Casaretto on the Morning NewsDesk Show.

First prob was the Sulzer day activity, on arriving at Ramsbottom the rawtenstall-Heywood train was in my path. It had pulled out of Ramsbottom and was waiting at the signal just out side the station. I arrived earlyer than compared to the time table but that cant be helped with all that power
Forty Friday Part 1 has a similar problem, on arriving at Ramsbottom my train takes platform 2 and on the F10 next station display is states out of path!
Not run the other to Forty activites yet!


text: My bees superseded the old queen. We had 8 capped queen cells last weekend, many have hatched. There were a few more that weren't hatched as of today. I saw a large queen that appeared to be mated. She was trudging along like a queen does, but I didn't see many attendants. She was DEFINITELY a queen. I don't believe she's started to lay yet. I tried to get a picture of her, but I has having camera trouble. I think I may have captured her here. Towards the upper right part of the comb. Her head is hidden. Do you think that's definitely her. If she's mated, she could possibly have a few more mating flights to do, correct?? Should I see her laying by the weekend. Do you think she'll be *the* queen?? I didn't see any others, but I would have a hard time spotted a queen who wasn't mated.

Anyone have thoughts on how, as a restaurant, we can reward academic achievements for students at surrounding schools? We could do coupons, but that's kind of...meh, boring.
Any creative ideas?

Grocery store colects non-perishables for food bank
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - If you pick up some groceries this weekend, a local grocery store hopes you'll help fight hunger in Northeast Tennessee at the same time.
The Food Lion in Johnson City is hosting a "Fill Up The Truck" food drive this weekend for Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee.
Customers can buy non-perishable items and place them in a bin when they're done shopping.
Officials say this food drive comes at a good time because the need grows during the summer. "Customers are coming by and donating. We're having a lot of fun with it and hopefully we're going to fill up this truck right here," said Food Lion Store Manager Dick Hawes.
"We know that our pantries and soup kitchens that depend on Second Harvest, over 200 of them, have seen an increase in demand of services. So we really depend on our community to help stock the food banks so we'll have the food they need," said Rhonda Chafin, Executive Director of Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee.
Food Lion customers can sign up their MVP cards online to help the food bank even more with donations. We learned by linking your card, a donation to the Food Bank will be made for each Food Lion Private Brand product you purchase. A donation will double when you use your MVP card on the 10th of each month.
