The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star shares an adorable photo of her baby daughter with Kanye West on Instagram, captioning the snap, 'Smile.'
Just like any other mothers, Kim Kardashian cannot help showing off her adorable daughter to the world. The reality star shared another photo of her daughter with fiance Kanye West on Instagram on Monday, December 16. In the photo, her 5-month-old baby girl North West can be seen smiling while playing with her white blanket. "SMILE," Kim captioned the photo.
Earlier this month, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star also shared a photo of her precious daughter with artist Jeff Koons during Art Basel show in Miami. "Art lessons! Jeff Koons & Nori #ArtBasel," she captioned it. The photo shows the baby, who goes by Nori, sitting in her car seat.
In other news, the 33-year-old star recently took part in a Q&A event on Mobio Insider. At the event, Kim answered some fans' questions about her pregnancy, saying that she craved for cheese. "Mostly cheese, chili cheese fries, everything with cheese," she wrote, adding, "[when I] was pregnant it was hard. My face [shape] changed my body changed and nothing in the tabloids were going to be nice. it was a [negative] time."
She also suggested that mothers have quality time for themselves. "Never lose time for u. go to the gym, get a facial, or manicure to feel goo[d] so u can go home and be a good happy mom at home," she explained.

Satan's Weakness (8 of 12) by John Barnett
This content is part of a series.Satan's Weakness (8 of 12)
Series: Paradise Lost
John Barnett
God is in an all out war against PRIDE this morning.
He wants to stamp it out in our lives this morning.
Let's let Him give us an exam this morning and help us cure our "I" problem today!
The most glaring portrait of pride is Lucifer, Satan, the devil. His downfall was deadly pride:
In this angelic host of the Lord God in heaven, above the archangels and above the seraphim and above the cherubim, there was one that God chose to be the crown prince of them all. His name was Lucifer, the star of the morning, the leader of the host of heaven, the guardian of the throne of God. Into Lucifer's hands was committed all that the Lord God had made and all of the angels that He had created. He was beautiful. He was perfect. And in his beauty and in his perfection he said in his pride that he would be like the Most High God.
Look with me at Isaiah 14:12-15.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart,
I WILL ASCEND (that is self-assertion) into heaven,
I WILL EXALT (that is self-promotion) my throne above the stars of God: I WILL SIT (that is self-centeredness) also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I WILL ASCEND (that is self-exaltation) above the heights of the clouds;
I WILL BE LIKE (that is self-delusion) the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
This morning, please stand with me and listen as I read James 4:1-12.
In our text this morning look with me and see that -
A Genuine Christian RECOGNIZES AND TURNS FROM PRIDE AND ITS EVILS 4:1-12
Like ink blots on a lovely white wedding dress, these verses in James stain his words to those 1st century church members. When Satan comes into the scene as John 10:10 says he comes " to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have ...

Hey everyone,
So recently installed a new theme, few pluggins along with it, it was working ok initially, then activated a plug in, and now whenever i try to acess any admin page, the page is blank (white) and nothing is happening.
I've seen a few older posts suggesting about deleting a space such as: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-admin-blank-page?replies=15
However I don't have access to my FTP right now, another person has all the details. What else can i try to fix this? And will the suggested solution work or are those posts now outdated?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, im going out my mind here.

Ditch class C. 172.16.0.0 is class b, and commonly 255.255.0.0 and
10.0.0.0 is class a, commonly 255.0.0.0.
While you can make you class c larger with 192.168.0.0/23 you may have
issues with some applications that do not like classless routing that
gets larger.
Also, when you get a few hundred wireless users on one flat network,
live will suck for most of them. You could run multiple firewalls...
(Or multiple interfaces, but captive portal can only run on one of them.)

Latest Hangover III Trailer Crashes In
The search for Spock... sorry, Chow
As if you could forget, the Wolfpack is back. We've had one main trailer for The Hangover Part III and now here comes the second, which boasts some new footage and a proper idea of what the plot is about, beyond "the guys take a road trip." Have a look below and at the new international poster below that.
It would appear that, in the wake of his father's death (and even before) Zach Galifianakis' man-child Alan has gone off his meds, acting weirder than ever. Which is saying something, given that it's Alan. So Pack pals Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms) and Doug (Justin Bartha) stage an intervention, aiming to whisk him off to rehab at New Horizons.
Yet en route, they're ambushed and cornered by John Goodman's vengeful villain, who is chasing Mr Chow (Ken Jeong) for stealing a hefty haul of cash. Holding Doug as hostage, Goodman sends the lads out to find Chow and bring him in, a mission that will take them to Tijuana and their old stomping ground of Las Vegas, among other places.
While all the ads so far have promised that this will be a different brand of wacky hijinks, we can't help but worry that elements like the kidnapped Doug, Chow going crazy and everyone crawling around Vegas will stick closely to the previous films. Still, hopefully there will be plenty of fresh laughs to be had as director Todd Phillips wraps up the trilogy.
Should you be in the mood for more Hangover stuff, a couple of new posters are online, and can be seen below - along with the previously released ones. {New Hangover character posters}
The Hangover Part III will descend into our cinemas on May 23.

New apartments named in honour of the late Sir Paul Reeves
The Selwyn Foundation names new apartments in honour of the late Right Revd Sir Paul Reeves
The Selwyn Foundation's new five storey apartment building currently under construction at Hillsborough's Selwyn Heights Village is to be named the 'Reeves Apartments', in honour of the late Right Reverend and Honourable Sir Paul Reeves, Archbishop and Primate of New Zealand, 1980–1985, and Governor General of New Zealand, 1985–1990.
As Bishop of Auckland and Archbishop, Sir Paul was President of the Foundation when Selwyn made its first foray into independent living accommodation. During his tenure, Sir Paul officiated at a number of events marking the Foundation's development of services.
Sir Paul belonged to the Puketapu hapu of the Te Atiawa of Taranaki and was the first person of Maori descent to be appointed Governor General. It is generally recognised that he touched hearts as few public figures have and was committed to shaping and improving life in New Zealand. He was not afraid to say what he believed and spoke on all subjects with knowledge and a cutting-edge.
"In naming our new apartments in honour of Sir Paul, we celebrate his memory, his association with The Selwyn Foundation and the respect in which he was held by so many New Zealanders," said Garry Smith, the Chief Executive Officer of The Selwyn Foundation.
Specifically designed to optimise the exceptional vistas of the surrounding landscape, the Reeves Apartments will occupy a central position in the Village and will complete the 'U'-shaped complex of community facilities and apartments surrounding Selwyn Heights' existing bowling green and Chapel. Showcasing the latest thinking in retirement living, this prestigious development will also offer an extensive array of new amenities, including swimming and spa pools, a gymnasium, restaurant, function area, retail outlets, and underground car parking.
With prices starting from $415,000, these 56 stylish one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments will be available in November 2014 and will further expand the Village's appeal for retirees looking for quality and style in a premium environment.
Selwyn Heights Village is part of The Selwyn Foundation, an independent charitable trust with Christian values, providing independent retirement living, residential care and community services for older people. www.selwyncare.org.nz

Laura Ingalls Wilder's "Little House on the Prairie" book series will always have a place in my heart. My third grade teacher Mrs. Hester made my class read the entire series. At the time, I didn't really enjoy them and found their Midwest lifestyle completely distant from my own. As I got older however, I began to reread them and fell in love with the Wilder family and their do-it-yourself lifestyle: picking berries, making maple syrup, sewing clothes, and building cabins. If there was a field nearby to frolic in, this is what I would wear (with my hair in two perfect braids, of course)!

did you get carried away by the RAPTURE?
Are you ready for JUDGMENT DAY? Haven't you seen all the websites warning us to prepare? One website predicts that the RAPTURE will occur some time in 2011 [link]. Not to mention the thousands of billboards and ads sponsored by another group of Christians warning:
May 21, 2011
The BIBLE Guarantees It! [link]
If you haven't prepared yet, don't bother, it's too late… looks like you missed the boat.
But just in case you're wondering what the RAPTURE is all about, I suggest the following video. While Harold Camping, who predicted that end of the world would occur on May 21st, was obviously wrong, one thing remains certain, it won't be long before RAPTURE enthusiasts announce another date:
"Are you ready for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ? The greatest prophecy in the bible is not far from fulfillment. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout with the voice of the archangel and the trumpet of God and the dead in Jesus Christ will rise first. Then those of us who are alive and still remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so shall we ever be with the Lord."
"Are you ready for his return? Some day soon in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye… events unspeakably strange and startling will occur…. Speeding trains will plunge unsuspecting passengers into a black eternity as Christian engineers are snatched from their throttle. Operations will be halted mid way as believing surgeons are caught up to be forever with the Lord…. There will be milk deliveries unmade, there will be stores remaining closed… housework will be left undone because Christian maids have been promoted to higher realms…"
"For some [Christians] it will mean joyful release from suffering and pain… To all Christians the rapture will mean removal from the presence of sin, drinking, from murder, gambling, unbelief… from wars and rumor of war."
But for the unsaved:
" you will be LEFT BEHIND to suffer tribulation as the world has never seen…
The sea will become as the blood of a dead man, rivers and fountains will be turned into blood, men will be scorched with great heat, men will be covered with noisome and grevious sores. The islands of the sea will disappear. There will be lightening and thunder and a great earthquake such as was not since man was upon the earth."
"Are you ready to pass through all these horrible experiences and then go on to a black eternity? Or are you ready now to accept the Lord Jesus as your Savior and be caught up to meet him in the air when he comes for his own?"
There is some debate amongst Christians who believe in the Rapture whether they'll be whisked away before or after the suffering begins. The pre-millennialists, who seem to be the majority, insist they'll be carried away beforehand [link].
But most agree that, all the sinners who aren't "born again," or "saved" (depending upon your vernacular) will be LEFT BEHIND to suffer these "unspeakable torments." If you're worried you'll be caught unprepared, you can go to yet another site RAPTURE READY [link] and find all the info you need, including new predictions for Jesus' return.
For me, the RAPTURE sounds like one of those hairy moments on Star Trek when Captain Kirk, trapped on a planet about to be eaten by space monsters, shouts into his communicator: "BEAM ME UP SCOTTY!" When I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, all I want is to be transported out of there. Given the massive problems confronting us today: the threat of violence, the ecological crisis, the rapid growth in global population which will place an ever increasing strain on the world's limited resources, its easy to understand why so many Christians want to believe in the RAPTURE, but is it really the Christian thing to do? Isn't this running away from our problems? Refusing to take responsibility for the mess we've made of things? Leaving others to suffer the consequences? Think about it: the tribulations described above read like a grocery list of the bad effects of OUR irresponsible behavior.
As process theologian Catherine Keller demonstrates there's a link between "imagining the world out of existence," and the "material habits of world-waste ruining our civilization." The "expectancy that Our Father will make us a shiny new world when this one breaks explicitly correlates with a willingness to dump this one." (Keller, Apocalypse Now and Then, 2)
In 1996 when Keller published this she stated that one-fourth of all Americans believe in this kind of end of world scenario (Keller, 8). A decade later a 2005 Newsweek poll revealed that 55% believe in the Rapture, suggesting that RAPTURE READINESS is on the rise - a response to heightening crises around the globe. As our consumption increases unfettered, I'd be willing to bet that the May 21st flop will hardly put a dent in this trend.
To understand the logic at work here, we need to return to the key RAPTURE texts. The pivotal Greek word which appears in these passages is αἴρω (airō) = to take away [see lexicon]. In Matthew 24:37-44 [link], one of the most popular Rapture texts, αἴρω describes the plight of those who were swept away by Noah's flood. Jesus warns his listeners:
For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark, and they knew nothing until the flood came and SWEPT THEM ALL AWAY, so too will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Notice that in Jesus' retelling of the Genesis story of the Flood, Noah is LEFT BEHIND in the ark while the SINNERS are CARRIED AWAY. Jesus continues: "Then two will be in the field and one will be taken and one will be left. Two women will be grinding meal together; one will be taken and one will be left." Given what Jesus says above, those taken are those swept away by the flood. How did it get reversed?
This is followed by a short parable: "if the owner of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an unexpected hour." Those who believe in the Rapture equate the thief with the Son of Man who's going to sneak into the house unannounced and steal those who are ready away to safety. This is despite the fact that earlier in the chapter Matthew warns that the coming of the Son of Man coincides with a tidal wave of violent events which will flood Jerusalem, a deluge will happen so quickly that there will be little if any time to escape.
Many Christians, have been told, some of them since they were children, to read these cataclysmic events, not as the effects of their own behavior, but as signs of the RAPTURE, that when the moment comes they're to be ready and awake, waiting for Jesus to transport them out of there…. but what if it's really the opposite scenario?
For instance, following 9/11, Americans were easily SWEPT into a war, which many of us now regret. Unfortunately, at the time, it was nearly impossible to resist being CARRIED AWAY by the demands for revenge and the patriotic fervor which overtook the nation. Isn't this closer to Jesus' statement in Matthew's text? Since 9/11 we've experienced the painful costs of getting CARRIED AWAY: a war which has stolen not only our loved ones, but also our sense of national security. If only we had recognized the thief in the night we could have stayed awake, we wouldn't have let our fear get the best of us, if only…
As long as we place our hope in some form of rescue, we won't be ready. When the tidal wave of trouble comes, as it always does, we'll be caught off-guard without a lifeboat. Jesus is not up in the sky, he remained on earth. Caught, as he was, between a rock and a hard place, he never cried out, "Beam me up Scotty!" When everyone around him, including the disciples, were overtaken by fear and CARRIED AWAY by the flood of events, Jesus chose to be LEFT BEHIND!
Paul Nuechterlein says it well, "Jesus himself ultimately became the one left behind. All others had gotten swept up in the unanimous violence against him. He was the only one not caught up in the flood of violence as a perpetrator and instead became its victim for our sakes. "
Girardian Reflections on the Lectionary [link]
Why would Jesus choose to be LEFT BEHIND, to become a "victim for our sakes"? French thinker, René Girard claims that in the midst of this contagion Jesus became the scapegoat - to expose the role of the victim, who is forced to suffer the consequences of our bad behavior. This casts an alarming light on all the apocalyptic fervor in the United States. Isn't it a form of preparation, a way of tapping into mass hysteria unconsciously motivated by fear, by which we achieve the unanimous emotional threshold that must be reached for scapegoating and its ensuing catharsis to occur? Over the course of our history countless millions have been scapegoated. Eventually it has to catch up with us… and somewhere hidden in the back of our minds we know this.
The thief who comes in the night may be read as the tidal wave of violence threatening to overtake us at any moment, a form of judgment or Second Coming, or even a sort of advent of an "unrepresentable" object of fear breaking into our reality - the accumulated suffering of the past centuries, the unfathomable amount of bloodshed - enough to fill an ocean. The countless masses who died unnecessarily of hunger and disease, the people trampled underfoot by the relentless march of global capitalism, beginning, as Keller describes, with the rape and pillage of the Americas by the European conquistadors.
I find it interesting that another rapture text Matthew 11:12 goes ignored: "From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force." The Greek word for "take it by force" is ἁρπάζω (harpazō) = carry off by force, a derivative of αἱρέω which is closely related to αἴρω (airō) = to take away. The Latin is rapio, rape. Isn't it related? The ravaging of the environment, global warming - all this is represented in the video above, "Are you ready?" Are you ready for the accumulated effects of this violence to finally exact its revenge? Incredibly, belief in the RAPTURE resolves all this by transforming "the object of fear into the site of hope," (Keller, 6) a mechanism so powerful, it even renders it's gruesome subject matter suitable for children's cartoons and video games.
The apocalyptic fervor of Jesus' own time allowed the people to deflect the pronouncement of judgment delivered by John the Baptist, the greatest of prophets. but tensions continued to mount until, in the blink of an eye, Jerusalem was utterly destroyed, the people CARRIED AWAY once again.
I'd rather be LEFT BEHIND, to stay put, to wait, and let it come before it goes that far. And even if the waters rise and the flood approaches, to seek ways to resist apocalyptic fervor. Rather than deny or deflect our violence onto others, to prepare spaces within ourselves, a sort of Noah's Ark, in which we integrate what we've always denied and learn to live on in new ways. As LEFT BEHIND "we have begun to respond." Indeed I read the RAPTURE as postmodern philosopher Jacques Derrida does: "We have begun to be caught up, we are caught up, in a certain responsibility - as if it were possible to think a responsibility without freedom. We are invested with an undeniable responsibility at the moment we begin to signify something…." (Derrida, Politics of Friendship, 231)
Let me end by offering a song from my RAPTURE PLAYLIST: "Runaway" by The National [link]
There's no savin' anything
I was swallowing the shine of the sun
There's no savin' anything
How we swallowed the sun
But I won't be no runaway
'Cause I won't run
No, I won't be no runaway
What makes you think I'm enjoyin' being led to the flood?
We got another thing comin' undone
And it's takin' us over
For more on the Rapture go to Peter Rollins [link] revised version of the RAPTURE [link]:
Just as it was written by those prophets of old, the last days of the Earth overflowed with suffering and pain. In those dark days a huge pale horse rode through the Earth with Death upon its back and Hell in its wake. During this great tribulation the Earth was scorched with the fires of war, rivers ran red with blood, the soil withheld its fruit and disease descended like a mist. One by one all the nations of the Earth were brought to their knees.
Far from all the suffering, high up in the heavenly realm, God watched the events unfold with a heavy heart. An ominous silence had descended upon heaven as the angels witnessed the Earth being plunged into darkness and despair. But this could only continue for so long for, at the designated time, God stood upright, breathed deeply and addressed the angels,
"The time has now come for me to separate the sheep from the goats, the healthy wheat from the inedible chaff"
Having spoken these words God slowly turned to face the world and called forth to the church with a booming voice,
"Rise up and ascend to heaven all of you who have who have sought to escape the horrors of this world by sheltering beneath my wing. Come to me all who have turned from this suffering world by calling out 'Lord, Lord'".
In an instant millions where caught up in the clouds and ascended into the heavenly realm. Leaving the suffering world behind them.
Once this great rapture had taken place God paused for a moment and then addressed the angels, saying,
"It is done, I have separated the people born of my spirit from those who have turned from me. It is time now for us leave this place and take up residence in the Earth, for it is there that we shall find our people. The ones who would forsake heaven in order to embrace the earth. The few who would turn away from eternity itself to serve at the feet of a fragile, broken life that passes from existence in but an instant".
And so it was that God and the heavenly host left that place to dwell among those who had rooted themselves upon the earth. Quietly supporting the ones who had forsaken God for the world and thus who bore the mark God. The few who had discovered heaven in the very act of forsaking it.

So you want to use cloth diapers, but where do you start? There are A TON of cloth diapers available, but sometimes, finding the right system for you can be overwhelming. Here's a look at some of the options available today.
Pocket cloth diapers: A pocket diaper is usually made of two layers of fabric sewn together to form a pocket that will hold an absorbent insert. bumGenius 4.0 are pocket style cloth diapers. This type of cloth diaper can be as convenient and simple to use as disposables. Pocket cloth diapers do require an extra step after laundering because the insert must be stuffed into the pocket so the diaper will become absorbent.
All In One (AIO) cloth diapers: AIO style diapers have a waterproof cover with built-in inserts. This means the inserts are sewn into the diaper. bumGenius Freetime and bumGenius Elemental are all-in-one style diapers. Many people consider all-in-ones to be the most convenient style of cloth diaper because there is no need to stuff inserts for absorbency. All-in-one cloth diapers are very easy to use, especially for those who may be resistant or new to cloth.
Hybrid diapers: Hybrid diapers are generally a two piece system comprised of a waterproof outer cover and an absorbent insert. The Flip Diapering System is a hybrid. It consists of a waterproof, one sized fits most, cover and your choice of stay dry, organic or disposable inserts. One benefit of hybrids is that covers can sometimes be used more than once. When the insert is wet only, simply remove it, wipe the cover and replace with a dry one. Another benefit to hybrids is the ability to change the type of insert without having to purchase an entirely new diaper.
Covers and prefolds: Covers and prefolds are an economical way to cloth diaper. Covers are typically a single layer of waterproof fabric. Prefolds are the classic, original cloth diaper. Prefolds are several layers of fabric with stitching generally dividing the diaper into thirds. With modern covers, there are no need for pins to keep your prefolds in place. To secure a prefold without a cover, you can use traditional pins or a Snappi. Prefolds are usually cotton, with bleached and unbleached options available. Econobum is an economical cover and prefold system, where you can cloth diaper your baby from birth to potty training for as little as $100.
Flat diapers: Flat diapers are usually a natural fiber, such as cotton or hemp. Flats differ from prefolds in that they are usually a single layer of fabric, without the stitching that prefolds have. Like prefolds, there are a variety of ways to fold your flats and secure them with pins or Snappis. Flats are not waterproof, so you'll need covers to protect clothing. Because flats are a single layer of fabric, they dry much faster than prefolds. This makes them ideal for when you need to hand wash and hang dry your cloth diapers.
Fitted diapers: Fitted diapers are usually made with natural fibers, like hemp or cotton, and are shaped diaper. These are not rectangles like prefolds or flats, and do not require pins or Snappis. They do require a cover to be waterproof. While not as convenient as an AIO, there are often more natural fabric options in fitted diapers and they can provide a better fit than a prefold or flat.
Trainers: Cloth Trainers are specifically designed to fit older children who are interested in potty training. The Flip Potty Training pack comes with one cover and multiple cotton inserts you can change when wet and just wipe and re-use the cover, much like the hybrid Flip diaper system. Fuzzibunz, Bummis and Imse Vimse trainers are all-in-one style training pants designed for a single use. Trainers are often less absorbent than other styles of cloth diapers, as they are designed to be used in conjunction with toilet training.
Sized diapers: Each cloth diaper brand has their own sizing system, so be sure to read the weight suggestions for each size before purchasing. FuzziBunz Perfect Size cloth diapers are available in S, M and L sizes. Thirsties Diaper Covers and Kissaluvs Fitteds both come in two size choices.
One-Size diapers: One sized diapers are a shorter way of saying "one size fits most." These cloth diapers or covers are designed to fit most babies from newborn stage 8-35 lbs. The way these diapers grow with baby is by having rows of snaps in the center of the diaper that create an adjustable rise. These snaps do not have to be changed at each diaper change, only adjusted as babies grow. All bumGenius, Flip and Econobum products are one-sized products that will grow with your baby.
When it comes to cloth diapering, there's one thing to remember — as long as you have something with a waterproof outer outer layer and an absorbent inner layer that fits your baby, you are going to be fine.

Jessica Simpson Gives Reality TV A Second Shot. But Why?
Jessica Simpson made headlines with her MTV reality show "Newlyweds," especially after her famous Chicken of the Sea line. The show ended, as did Nick and Jess' marriage. That's why I was surprised to hear that Simpson is giving reality TV a second try with a new show, "The Price of Beauty." This time around, the focus will be on "society's scrutiny of women's bodies." Simpson, who has received a lot of flack in the press for a spike in weight exaggerated by a very unforgiving pair of high-waisted jeans, pitched the idea to several networks, according to Us Weekly. "The idea behind the show is that she and a friend set off on a road trip around the world in search of what people find beautiful and why," a source from the magazine said. I give Jess props for addressing a painful issue head-on. Plus, I'm all for discussing how being waif-thin is not necessarily cool and for redefining what society deems "beautiful." That said, I'm a little skeptical. Jessica is one of many celebs who has used her weight fluctuations to drum up publicity for her otherwise lackluster album and ticket sales. Isn't this just more of the same? Even Jessica admitted that "Newlyweds" helped sell her records at the time. What do you think?

Neon Trees' Tyler Glenn comes out as gay in 'Rolling Stone'
Listen to Neon Trees on iHeartRadio
Tyler Glenn of Neon Trees comes out as gay in the new issue of Rolling Stone.
"I've always felt like I'm an open book, and yet obviously I haven't been completely," he tells the magazine.
Glenn, who was raised Mormon and remains so, says he's known he was gay since childhood, but only recently decided to go public.
"I had my crushes on guys throughout high school, but it was never an overwhelming thing until my twenties," he confesses. "Then I'd be dating girls and in love with my straight friend and it was the worst feeling in the world."
Glenn says the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints "always taught, and I hate this word, 'tolerance.'"
"The only time that felt different was when the Prop 8thing came up," he admits, referring to the millions spent by Mormon leaders to fight same-sex marriage.
The rocker, best known for hit songs like "Animal" and "Everybody Talks," began telling friends and family about his sexuality last fall, with the band's upcoming album specifically addressing his closeted years.
Glenn tells Rolling Stone, "I really love all of the sports figures that are coming out recently. I appreciated Michael Sam was like, 'I want to be able to go to the movies and hold hands with my boyfriend.'"
"Even hearing him say 'boyfriend,' I was just like, that's cool," he adds.
Glenn's full interview will be on news stands Friday.

Docket Management
Docket: 01N-0319 - Agency Information Collection Activities; Health and Diet Survey
Comment Number: EC -5
Accepted - Volume 1
Comment Record
Mrs. Barbara Lovelis
2001-08-23 02:16:29
Comments for FDA General
1. Is the proposed collection of information necessary for the proper performance of FDA's functions? Will the information have practical utility?
In order to base a decision of the finished product one must evaluate the contents of such a product. Only by knowing each and every part of the contents can one make a proper decision on the sum of those parts. The practicality of it all comes for the consumer who needs the information to base his or her decision to purchase.
3. What are ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected?
I again state that information should be available in it's entirity. It is the ONLY WAY consumers can make an informed decision on the purchase of that product.
4. What are ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of information technology?
The burden of collection should be solely on the manufacturer. They are the one that wants to sell the product, aren't they? If consumers have the information they need they will be able to purchase that item. With automated systems I fear a generic label (may contain this or that). That doesn't always help, although I understand bottom line profit dollars do determine policy.
5. General Comments
I cannot begin to explain to you the amount of time it takes to become informed when purchasing food products for someone with allergies. The Label is ALL I have to go by. That goes for wholesale labels as well, when I choose to go out to eat. It is painfully tedious at best. I was angered by the loop hole of Natural Flavors which could include anything of natural origin. Or so I am told. What a cop out on the part of manufacturers to not inform us of what we are consuming. One manufacturer went so far as to tell me that they would not give the information I needed when I spoke to their consumer affairs dept. to find out whether their product contained any of the list of foods I am allergic too. Coca-Cola was so uncooperative with me I swore not to purchase any of their items. Most companies are pretty good and running down the list of questions I have for them if I need to call because of vague labeling. It would certainly make my life much easier to have labels printed on the product that gave me specific information as to the ingredients of that item. I have spent HOURS reading labels and countless headaches in restaraunts trying to find out what is in my food. I am the consumer, I am disgusted with the lack of concern for the individual that our country seems to have at this time. Do we need to grow our own food to make sure we know what is in it? Do we need to grow our own food so I will know it is safe to eat? I hope not, I am working member of this society and frankly I'm not sure I have the time to raise all my own food. I hope you can help. Sincerely Barbara Lovelis

text: Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading supplier of analog and mixed-signal semiconductors, today announced the availability of a multi-standard silicon IP (SiIP) PHY that supports the latest new standards for high-speed wireline and wireless networks. The new SBMULTR2T2812G SiIP PHY is silicon-proven and was developed by Semtech's Snowbush IP Group, which is focused on designing high-speed serial interface IP. The new platform supports JESD204B (JEDEC Standard), Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI™) and open base station architectural initiative (OBSAI). The IP also supports 10GBase-KR, CEI-11G and PCI-Express 3.0. The SBMULTR2T2812G SiIP PHY is tuned to meet the performance of each standard through a programmable profile that sets a set of registers that control the operation of the PHY. The programmable register set controls key electrical operations and allows for post-silicon corrections to adjust to different operating environments. The PHY is available today in dual- and quad-lane versions. The platform supports advanced channel equalization and adaptation circuitry to optimize performance while using minimal power at each data rate and in the smallest silicon area. The new PHY is currently being used by Texas Instruments in its base station devices. "Our team is using the Semtech-Snowbush IP PHY to support the serial standards in our KeyStone-based base station SoCs," said Sanjive Agarwala, TI Fellow & Director of Worldwide Silicon Development for TI's Processor business. "Semtech's IP architecture is quite adaptable to our requirements and the effective integration support and project execution Semtech provided enabled us to quickly integrate their PHY into our SoCs, helping speed development time." The Semtech-Snowbush SBMULTR2T2812G SiIP PHY supports the three major enhancements in JESDB, a 12.5Gbps data rate, deterministic latency and harmonic clocking. These features differentiate JESDB from JESDA. The physical interface specification is compliant with the OIF Common Electrical Interface (CEI) 6G-SR at 6.25Gbps and CEI-11G-SR at 12.5Gbps.

//GORILLAZ SONGS//19/2000 (Ben Brown's UKFUNK.COM Remix As Chosen By Gorillaz)
|XFM is an alternative radio station broadcasting in London, England. In late 2001 they ran a competition to find who could make the best remix of 19/2000, with Gorillaz eventually choosing the winner. Folklore has it that the Gorillaz chose from 'over sixty' though whether that was the total number of entries or a shortlist has never been established. Either way, Ben Brown one with his 'UKFUNK.com Remix' and was honoured with a place on XFM's first Remix compilation (there were further titles in the series). This track is exclusive to the XFMrelease and not available anywhere else. It's more chilled out than the original, even a little spooky, and makes for a pleasant listen. Certainly more interesting than what many other professional remixers might have come up with.

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) -- Indonesia's two troubled football associations have agreed to merge, ending a feud that had FIFA threatening to suspend the country from international competitions.
Youth and Sport Minister Roy Suryo says the reconciliation agreement has freed Indonesia from potential sanctions.
A meeting Sunday, held ahead of a FIFA deadline, resulted in the dissolution of the breakaway Indonesian Football Rescue Association and an agreement to reconcile the country's two topflight championships next year.
The breakaway association's leader, La Nyalla Mataliti, is the new deputy chairman of the FIFA-sanctioned All-Indonesia Football Association, or PSSI, which is now led by Djohar Arifin Husin.
The two-year feud over control of the sport by two politically connected business factions had left Indonesia with two leagues, two national teams and scandals involving players not being paid.

What are the standards for a song to be featured on the Song Discovery CD?
1. Creative. Is it a well-constructed song? We do not modify the production in any way – how you hear it is how it goes on the CD. So the "quality" should be that of a master. As well, the song is listened to see if it has the strength lyrically to be modified to fit a multitude of congregational settings. What is the song good for? The song needs to serve a function in the worship service, i.e.: offertory, communion, main congregational worship portion of the service, benediction, choral, special number, etc.
2. True. Is this song authentic to the community / author? Our subscribers belong to diverse worship communities, so we are looking to find what truth is being spoken to the represented community. Is this song authentic to the Scripture? Above all else this criterion is most important. We need to make sure the lyrical content is doctrinally sound before it is presented to congregations to be sung over people in worship services.

Un voile, Un certain moi de juin is the story of French artist Bérengère Lefranc's decision to wear a "burqa" (although she hesitates to define it as such) for one month and write about it. I was skeptical about this book after reading an initial review of it in Swiss daily Le Temps. Not normally a fan of these "Let's play dress up" stories, I set out to read the book anyway. Already, the title bothers me. "Voile" is "veil" in French, and the garment Ms. Lefrance wears most closely resembles a … [Read more...]

The Nature Conservation Act increases penalties for anyone damaging a protected site of scientific interest to £40,000.
It also introduces new offences safeguarding nesting birds, badgers, whales and dolphins.
Ministers said the law put Scotland at the "cutting edge" of international biodiversity conservation.
The wide-ranging new law makes it a criminal offence to harm or destroy any of Scotland's bird, animal or plant life.
'Turning point'
It includes special protection for a number of threatened species, including Scotland's national bird - the rare Capercaillie.
In future it will be an offence to disturb the birds when they are "lekking", performing their spectacular mating ritual.
The Nature Conservation (Scotland) Act 2004 also includes tough measures to clamp down on people who recklessly damage nature reserves.
Quad bikers who churn up the hillsides on Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) face heavy fines and the prospect of being ordered to pay thousands more in restoration orders.
Landowners also face similar penalties if they make unauthorised changes to their land which harm the environment.
John Markland, chairman of environment watchdog Scottish Natural Heritage, hailed the legislation as "a very important turning point for nature conservation in Scotland".
He said: "It will lead to a less bureaucratic system for protection of our most threatened animals and plants, whether they occur on sites of special scientific interest or elsewhere, away from protected sites."
'Secure future'
Lloyd Austin, of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, backed the legislation.
He said: "RSPB Scotland and other environmental charities have campaigned hard for this.
"We need to ensure our wildlife has the level of protection necessary, given the steep decline in populations of many of our species.
"The act has brought wildlife legislation in Scotland up to date and we look forward to a more secure future for the environment."
Marine life on the threatened list includes the bottlenosed dolphin, the freshwater pearl mussel and the powan, a freshwater fish.
The wildcat, another symbol of Scotland, is also facing extinction, as are the Scottish crossbill bird, the Scotch Argus butterfly and the Slender Scotch Burnet moth.
Plants under threat include Snow Caloplaca lichen and Ear-lobed Dog-lichen.
Balancing needs
Bob Howat, vice-president of the National Farmers' Union Scotland, said his members played a crucial role in managing some of Scotland's most valuable wildlife sites.
He said: "This act provides the vehicle to support farmers' continued management of SSSI's, which cover 12% of Scottish farmland.
"The act is crucial to protecting and enhancing these areas."
Deputy Minister for Environment and Rural Development, Lewis Macdonald, detailed the new legislation at Edinburgh's Royal Botanic Gardens on Monday.
He said: "The act provides a robust system for safeguarding Scotland's most special places and addresses the need for improved protection of vulnerable wildlife.
"We recognise that successful conservation means balancing the needs of people and places.
"Through greater protection for Sites of Special Scientific Interest, this act places Scotland at the leading edge of international biodiversity conservation."

1 Be the Void, Dr. Dog (Anti-). Philadelphia group led by songwriters Toby Leaman and Scott McMicken have been releasing albums since 1999. Their joyous, wacky music is enhanced by overdubbing, maybe less so on this one. Best tracks: "Lonesome," "Warrior Man," "That Old Black Hole," "Over Here Over There."
2 The Lion's Roar, First Aid Kit (Wichita). Third album from earnest, folky-sounding Swedish sisters Johanna and Klara Söderberg. They begin a European tour early in 2013 opening for Conor Oberst. "Emmylou" admittedly has a corny refrain, but I really like the verses. Other top tracks: title, "King of the World," "Dance to Another Tune.
3 Arrow, Heartless Bastards (Partisan). Four piece country-rock band originally from Cincinnati, formed in 2003 and led by Erika Wennerstrom. It's an entirely new lineup after Wennerstrom broke up with their former bass player. WXPN calls it "easily the most confident set of songs we've heard from" them. Top tracks: "Parted Ways," "Late in the Night," "Marathon."
4 Sugaring Season, Beth Orton (Anti-). First album in six years by this 42-year-old native of Norwich, England, during which time she told The Guardian she thought her musical career was over. Part of what brought her back was guitar lessons from Bert Jansch of Pentangle. Top tracks: "Magpie," "Call Me the Breeze," "Dawn Chorus."
5 Babel, Mumford and Sons (Glass Note). Four man band from London formed in 2007 and named for guitarist and lead singer Marcus Mumford. Their folk-rock sound is distinctive; I can always tell a Mumford and Sons song, although I can't always tell which one it is. This is their second album. Along with comes a 90-minute concert film, "The Road to Red Rocks."
My Head is an Animal, Of Monsters and Men (Universal
Republic). First international release by
folk-rock group from Iceland led by Nanna Bryndis Hilmarsdȼttir.
They burst to prominence by winning the Músiktilraunir
festival in 2010, an honor that eluded the Beatles, possibly because
they never heard of it. The duet "Little Talks" went #1 in Iceland and
got the most airplay in the U.S.
7 There's No Leaving Now, Tallest Man on Earth (Dead Oceans). The "tallest man on Earth" is in real life Kristian Mattson from Sweden, who tops out at 5'7". So do you notice a theme here? With two acts from Sweden and one from Iceland, not to mention one named Wennerstrom, I certainly had my Nordic on in 2012! This is his fifth solo album. Featured track: "1904."
8 Knock Knock Get Up, David Wax Museum (101 Distribution). The duo of David Wax (vocals, guitar) and Suz Slezak (fiddle) released their fourth album, featuring a weird but appealing fusion of Latin and U.S. folk/bluegrass sound. They do a lot of charity work, and fiddler Slezak also plays a percussion instrument made from an ass's jaw.
9 Here, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros (Vagrant). This group is back together, which is very good news, and Alexander and Jade are over their breakup which occurred very soon after the writing of their duet "Home" (on 2009's Up from Below). "Man on Fire" is an excellent first track.
10 Tempest, Bob Dylan (Columbia). 71-year old legend continues to sing powerfully if not beautifully 50 years after the release of Bob Dylan. Like others of his recent albums Tempest hearkens to blues music of maybe the 1930s. "Duquesne Whistle" and "Early Roman Kings" are stupendous, but why are 14 minutes spent droning on about the sinking of the Titanic?
SOURCES: AllMusic (http://www.allmusic.com/), Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/), WXPN (http://www.xpn.org/), and performer websites.
1980 Soundtrack from "Xanadu," Various Artists (MCA). This album is probably not as cool as I thought it was at the time, and the movie is awfully dumb, but it contained some catchy songs from the post-orchestral Electric Light Orchestra, including "All Over the World," "I'm Alive," and the title track on which they duet with Olivia Newton-John, whose singing I like, so sue me.
1981 Long Distance Voyager, Moody Blues (Polydor). Admittedly not up to their bold orchestral arrangements of the late 1960s and early 1970s--this ain't no Seventh Sojourn--the group from Birmingham, England, nonetheless produced two memorable singles, "Gemini Dream" and "The Voice," as well as "Talking Out of Turn" and "Painted Smile."
1982 Daylight Again, Crosby Stills and Nash (Atlantic). Largely a collaboration of two members of the trio, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash, the popular album contains the folky, tightly-harmonized "Wasted on the Way" and "Song for Susan" (both written by Nash), as well as the evocative hit single "Southern Cross." It was their only studio album between CSN (1975) and American Dream (1988).
1983 The Distance, Bob Seger (Capitol). The first single from this album was the surprisingly folky "Shame on the Moon," co-written with Rodney Crowell. It was followed by "Even Now," featuring Seger's more typical rock sound. But the best of the bunch was "Roll Me Away," with its terrific western imagery: "Just then I saw a young hawk flying, and my soul began to rise..."
1984 Eyes That See in the Dark, Kenny Rogers (RCA). An interesting collaboration between the veteran country singer, pop sensations the Bee Gees who served as co-producers and occasional backup singers, and Dolly Parton, who duets on the #1 pop and country hit "Islands in the Stream." My favorite cut is "Evening Star," featuring the Gatlin Brothers on backing vocals.
1985 Centerfield, John Fogerty (Warner Brothers). Fogerty's comeback album after a decade lost to copyright wrangles with his former manager Saul Zaentz. The former leader Creedence Clearwater Revival got two memorable hit singles out of this, "The Old Man Down the Road" and "Rock and Roll Girls," as well as the baseball standard "Centerfield."
1986 Graceland,
Paul Simon
(Warner Brothers). The most memorable of the
three albums in which he collaborated with a variety of instrumental
styles. This one featured a number of South African
musicians, including Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
My favorite cuts: "You Can Call Me Al", "The Boy in the Bubble," and
the Cajun-flavored "That Was Your Mother".
1987 In the Dark, Grateful Dead (Arista). This album produced the Dead's highest-charting single, "Touch of Grey," as well as the dark (and more typical of their work) "Hell in a Bucket" and "When Push Comes to Shove." All but one cut is 5:00 or longer, giving the listener a sense of long Deadish jams.
1988 Songs From The Southside, Bruce Hornsby and the Range (RCA). On my favorite of the three albums he did with the Range, Virginian Hornsby combined jazz piano licks with socially conscious folk-style lyrics. The album produced top ten singles "The Valley Road" and "Look Out Any Window," as well as "Jacob's Ladder" which was a hit for Huey Lewis.
1989 Shooting Rubberbands
at the Stars, Edie Brickell
and the New Bohemians (Geffen). This band with the
anguished intellectual sounds had a huge hit with "What I Am" and a
worthy follow-up in "Circle." After two well-regarded solo albums
and marriage to Paul Simon, she reunited with the group for the 2006
release "Stranger Things."
1990 An Attainable Love, Christine Lavin (Philo). New York based folk singer/songwriter most famous for her humorous songs ("Sensitive New Age Guys," "Shopping Cart of Love: The Play") but she can be strikingly tender, as in "Venus Kissed the Moon." This was the last "album of the year" I bought on LP, and it wasn't easy to get.
1991 Ragged Glory, Neil Young (Warner Brothers). The veteran Canadian rocker seemed to recover his old spark with the CSNY project "American Dream." This is a powerful record, both lyrically and in terms of volume. Best cuts: "Country Home," "Days That Used To Be," "Mansion on a Hill."
1992 The Visit, Loreena McKennitt (Quinlan Road). The third album by a Canadian woman who plays the harp. There are some instrumentals ("Tango to Evora") but also some orignal songs ("All Soul's Night") and striking settings of old texts, including Tennyson's epic poem "The Lady of Shalott."
1993 The Future, Leonard Cohen (Columbia). Poet-turned-folkrocker from Montreal. Cohen's best songs are so unremittingly morose that they can't fail to cheer you up. His voice isn't much, but the beat's infectious. Best songs: "Democracy," "The Future," "Closing Time."
1994 Singer Songwriter Beggerman Thief, Five Chinese Brothers
(Prime CD). This is actually copyright 1992, but must have been
caught in indie hell because it didn't get airplay here til spring '94. Best cuts: "Paul
Cezanne," "Stop Talking," "All I Need."
1995 Lost Dogs and Missed Blessings, John Prine (Oh Boy). A veteran singer-songwriter from Melrose Park, Illinois, has penned some memorable songs including "Ain't Hurtin' Nobody," "He Forgot That It Was Sunday," "Lake Marie," and "Leave The Light On."
1996 Matapedia, Kate and Anna McGarrigle (Hannibal). The first album in six years from the singing sisters of Montreal, but less dark and more folky than "Heartbeats Accelerating" was. Even "Why Must We Die?" is done with their old wryness. Other outstanding tracks include the title and "Goin' Back to Harlan."
1997 The Book Of Secrets, Loreena McKennitt (Quinlan Road). Another remarkable set of compositions by this harpist-singer/songwriter/musicologist from Stratford, Ontario, reflecting Celtic and Middle Eastern influences. Favorite tracks: "Skellig," "Night Ride Across the Caucasus," "Mummer's Dance."
1998 Mermaid Avenue, Billy Bragg and Wilco (Elektra). The folk music event of the year--Woody Guthrie lyrics, heretofore rotting in an attic, set to music by English Marxist folkrocker Bragg. What's amazing is that the songs don't sound dated in the least. I don't know whether that's due to Bragg's contemporary settings or Guthrie's timeless lyrics.
1999 Morning Light, Paula Joy Welter
(Starry Sky Music). This is drawing outside the lines--the album
is copyright 1995--but it was released privately in California and only
made it to Iowa this year. A gentle singer with superlative
songs, including "Each Brings A Light" and "Long Ago."
2000 Red Dirt Girl, Emmylou Harris (Nonesuch). Wonderful songs about people, many of whom have seen pretty tough times. But sung in Emmylou's gentle way, they suggest that they have achieved some kind of requiem. Best cuts: title, "Bang the Drum Slowly," "Michelangelo."
2001 Essence, Lucinda Williams (Lost Highway). Very intimate songs from a singer-songwriter from Lake Charles, Louisiana. Her first album appeared in 1978. She wrote all the songs on this album, which was produced by Bo Ramsey. "Lonely Girls" and title cut are good, but "I Envy The Wind" could grow hair on a cement post.
2002 Looking for the Moon, Tom Paxton (Appleseed). This veteran folksinger turned 65 in 2002, but celebrated by releasing some of his best songs yet, with the mix of warmth (title, "Early Snow"), humor ("My Pony Knows The Way"), and poignancy ("The Same River Twice") his fans have come to expect. My son Eli really likes "The Bravest" about firefighters responding to 9/11.
2003 The Mavericks, The Mavericks (Sanctuary). Latin-influenced country band featuring lead singer and songwriter Raul Malo. Confusingly, their first, independently-released album had the same name. This one is an enjoyable listen from beginning to end. Best tracks: "Would You Believe" and "I Want To Know," as well as "Time Goes By" which features Willie Nelson.
2004 Lonely Runs Both
Ways, Alison Krauss & Union Station
(Rounder). Krauss is a 33-year-old fiddler born in Champaign,
Illinois, who records solo albums as well as group efforts with Union
Station. She does lead vocals on 10 songs, guitarist Dan Tyminski
on three, and guitarist Ron Block on one. Other members are Barry
Bales (bass) and Jerry Douglas (dobro). Production, by the group,
is incredibly clear and vibrant.
2005 Country Man, Willie Nelson (Lost Highway). One from the vaults, recorded about a decade earlier but only in 2005 did any record company realize that an album of Willie Nelson singing reggae songs would be a genuine contribution to Western civilization. The collaboration with Toots Hibbert on Johnny Cash's "I'm A Worried Man" joyously soars.
2006 The Seeger Sessions, Bruce Springsteen (Sony). Minus the E-Street Band, using a group of musicians assembled specifically for this album, The Boss gives the Springsteen treatment to traditional fok songs as a tribute to Pete Seeger, the man who may have done as much as anyone to keep that tradition alive. Best tracks: "Old Dan Tucker," "Oh Mary Don't You Weep."
2007 Djin Djin, Angelique Kidjo (Razor & Tie). Ebullient 12th album by a native of Benin now living in France, effectively fusing traditional African music with contemporary pop. "Ae Ae" makes an irresistible opener; another good track is "Emma." "Sedjedo," a duet with reggae star Ziggy Marley, is my favorite among a number of collaborations. The disc concludes with "Lonlon," a vocalization of Ravel's "Bolero."
2008 The Stand Ins, Okkervil River (Jagjaguwar). Will Sheff, originally of New Hampshire, now of Austin, Texas, is annoyed by people of lesser talents using their connections as springboards to success. But when complaints rock like this, I have no objection. This is their fifth full-length album; the group's name is from an actual river in Russia. Best tracks: "Singer Songwriter," "Lost Coastlines," "Pop Lie."
2009 The
Silver City, Jeremy Messersmith (Princess). Singer-songwriter from
Minneapolis, whose second album is a collection dealing with
metropolitan life. It begins ("Welcome to Suburbia") and ends ("Light
Rail") hailing the promise of progress, but the songs in
between--"Skyway" and "Dead End Job," for example--detail the struggles
of the individual in this putative paradise.
2010 Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful, Paloma Faith (Sony). My guilty pleasure of the year, because her burlesque roots make her somewhat redolent of Lady Gaga, but this theatrical young Britisher writes songs that are as clever as they are danceable. Best tracks: title, "Upside Down," "Play On."
2011 Alexander, Alexander (Vagrant). Californian Alex Ebert, late of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, and before that of Ima Robot, returns with a solo album of similar hippie-ish ebullience. In contrast to the Zeros' gigantic ensemble, he plays every track here himself. I missed Jade, though. Top tracks: "Let's Win," "A Million Years," "Truth."
