Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 14/1/2011 (2411 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Young mother Erin McDowell is a steadfast and enthusiastic voter -- "I don't ever miss it," she said.
During one of the flurry of federal elections several years ago, McDowell was knocked out by a brutal cold, but dragged herself down to her neighbourhood community club to vote anyway. "Then I went home, got back into my pyjamas and went back to bed," said the former hairstylist, small business owner and now mother of two girls. "If you don't vote, you do not get to complain."
McDowell's sense of civic duty reverberated among the moms gathered Tuesday morning for the friendly, colourful chaos that is the parents' drop-in program at the Earl Grey Community Centre. Asked to talk politics while keeping one eye on their kids, several women echoed McDowell's words exactly -- they vote regularly and they do it out of a strong notion of civic responsibility.
Research shows that women vote more than men -- a relatively new trend that started in the 1970s. In the decades before the modern feminist movement took hold, turnout among women was about three or four percentage points lower than men. Today, the reverse is true. Turnout among women is three or four points higher and holding.
That's the good news.
But dig a little deeper, as political scientists are starting to do, and there are some ominous trends, which one study termed "women's flagging political engagement."
If women vote out of a sense of duty, men vote out of an abiding interest in politics, said McGill University political scientist Melanee Thomas, who is doing her PhD on women voters.
According to her analysis of survey, polling and voting data, women tend to be less interested in politics, less knowledgeable about government and feel less effective in the political sphere. A dramatic rise in income and education levels among women, especially over the last two or three decades, was supposed to cure that. It hasn't.
There's also a real issues gap. Thomas pointed to new research done by the Canada West Foundation that suggests women tend to lean to the left and are most interested in the so-called soft issues like health care, the environment, homelessness.
Those are exactly the kinds of issues mentioned as top-of-mind among the Earl Grey moms like McDowell. They talked about the midwife shortage and the safety of the River Heights traffic circles and the quality of local schools.
In contrast, men tend to care about taxes, the economy, accountability, infrastructure -- the same issues that dominate news cycles, campaigns, punditry and the political discourse.
Women are also less likely to volunteer for or donate to a political party, call their MP or MLA to complain about an issue or even talk politics with friends. That means they have less impact on the nature of political debate from the bottom up, and there aren't enough women politicians to refocus the debate from the top down.
Manitoba is unusual in that the provincial legislature has a relatively healthy number of female MLAs. Eighteen out of 56 sitting MLAs are women, with one vacant seat. But Winnipeg city hall has only two female councillors and the number of women politicians in rural municipalities is abysmal. As Thomas noted, it's a chicken-or-the-egg question: Are women less politically engaged because the issues they care about get short shrift? Or do their issues get short shrift because women aren't engaged and elected?
There's also a knowledge gap -- women know less about politics than men do, or at least they are more likely to admit they feel a little light on the facts. That means they might not always vote in their best interests or for politicians or parties who really reflect their values.
"If women knew as much about politics as men did, the evidence suggests election results might change," said Thomas.
Besides a fitful interest, the demands of kids, jobs and housework typically leave women less time to devote to politics.
"I'm sort of out of the loop, and feeling strange about it, actually," said Maria Stapleton, while watching her pigtailed daughter dart around a playhouse.
Stapleton, an employment councillor by trade, cancelled her newspaper subscription after her child was born and has little time for the 6 o'clock news, meaning she finds herself playing catch-up online on issues she cares about. She always votes, but she also takes comfort in Canada's relatively staid and stable political culture. If there was a hugely divisive issue or some radical party position that was gaining traction, her political antennae would likely perk up.
What Stapleton dislikes is the grandstanding that dominates politics, a common complaint among the women gathered at Earl Grey. At election time, McDowell joked that the grandstanding amounts to little more than "I'm awesome. You're not. You suck, suck, suck."
If women are reliable voters but they feel somewhat disconnected from the tone and content of modern politics, that makes them perfect targets in the upcoming provincial election. Pollsters are already watching for fluctuations in voting preferences among women voters, who tend to favour the NDP.
Most of the Earl Grey moms said they leaned to the left, no surprise in Fort Rouge, but they also said they were willing to make some compromises and were open to other parties.
"I'm the swing voter," said McDowell. "You could win me over."
Data about voter turnout among women is surprisingly sparse. Elections Manitoba doesn't track voting by gender, and Elections Canada just started doing it for the 2008 election.
That year, when Prime Minister Stephen Harper defeated Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion, an estimated 57.6 per cent of women voted compared to 55.3 per cent of men.
The biggest gap was among voters in the 25 to 34-year-old age range. Only 45.5 per cent of men that age voted compared to 50.5 per cent of women.

Britney Spears fans kicked out of show for 'provocative dancing'
Going for the trifecta this morning. In an ironic move, fans at Britney Spears' Madison Square Garden show Tuesday were ejected by security for, no joke, "dancing too provactively." Page Six reports:
One of those yanked by guards, Sandra Ion, a Dramatics hair salon manager, said: "I guess there had been a complaint from someone in our section that our dancing was too risque. Meanwhile, Britney is onstage gyrating half-naked and singing 'Get Naked.' It was totally ridiculous. They should have just moved whoever complained instead of all of us." Ion says that guards forced her and her pals, including Amanda Lapore's stylist Harliquin, to miss three songs, and Garden management refused to reimburse them.
I want to know just how "risque" these women were dancing that it overshadowed Britney Spears defying the laws of physics by dry-humping a dude in a mid-air. At that point, I would've been more concerned with the structural integrity of the building than some chicks grinding on each other in the audience. Mostly.

In recent years, beauty tools have become hugely popular with more additions introduced to the market each year. Beauty tools allow for convenience and ease when putting together a beauty routine.

Our collection of beauty tools also includes more practical items such as nail files, eye/lip pencil sharpeners, eyelash curlers, makeup applicators and eyebrow pencil stencils. Even though these under appreciated tools never get much glory, it is often the "little guys" that make all the difference.

Written By Jac Coyne - Lacrosse Magazine Online
It's a field that any lacrosse team at any level would be ecstatic to have. What might be the best thing about Saint Leo's new facility?
The parking.
Located atop a brand new parking garage near the school's gymnasium, the new home of the Lions' men's and women's lacrosse teams has all of the bells and whistles to catch the eye of a prospective Division II student-athlete.
"The facility really is amazing," said Saint Leo head coach Brad Jorgensen. "It is an unmistakable symbol of the support we get from our administration. The university included state of the art scoreboards, sound system, and a locker room with film capabilities. It really has invigorated the players and our staff, and has been a huge help in recruiting.
"We certainly love the additional parking, as well!"
Saint Leo, located about 35 miles north of Tampa, will dedicate the field prior to tonight's men's scrimmage against the Central Florida (MCLA-I). The entire facility, which includes two stories of parking, cost the school $14.4 million, according to Brian Brennan, the school's assistant director of undergraduate admissions.
The sparkling new field is also emblematic of what the Saint Leo men's program wants to accomplish in 2013.
"We have big expectations for this group," Jorgensen said. "We return just about every key player from last season, including our top three attackmen who racked up 122 points between them – sophomore Chris Ciazza, junior Matthew Obermeyer and senior George Proechel. On top of that, we have added 24 new players, including four that were named US Lacrosse High School All Americans last spring.
"It's still only a few weeks in to our fall season, but the improvement has been very noticeable on both sides of the ball. We look forward to our scrimmage to gauge where we are, and how the new rules will play out."
Last year, the Lions finished with a 7-7 record and lost in overtime in the quarterfinals of the Deep South Conference tournament. Just like league rival Tampa, Saint Leo is hoping to play deep into May.
"We have, and always have had, the goal of representing the South in the NCAA tournament," Jorgensen said. "This year we have a schedule that will allow us to fight for one of the four southern bids, with games against the best teams in our region and a trip to Long Island to play NYIT. That schedule also has us playing eight of our 12 games at home on in the new facility."
And all the parking spaces you could hope for.

This is a small part of a larger thread I am eventually going to put out there sometime after the draft lottery is determined, and the Pacers find out for sure where they will pick.
The Pacers clearly in my view need a defensive wing player to be a major factor in their rotation. We also should try our best to achieve 2 other goals in any move we make, which are to: acquire extra draft picks, and not take on extra salary (and save salary when possible). This proposed move fits all of these criteria.
Here is my proposal:
Pacers trade F Shawne Williams, and the rights to European F/C Erazem Lorbek to Detroit.
Detroit trades their first round pick in the 2008 draft, C Cheick Samb, and G/F Aaron Afflalo to Indiana.
Why Detroit makes the trade:
Williams potentially gives them an eventual successor to Rasheed Wallace. Detroit also has room on their roster to add Lorbek in 2008-2009 to provide added depth. Afflalo is a good player but is blocked by Richard Hamilton and especially Teyshaun Prince.
Why Indiana makes the trade: While perhaps not quite as good as a prospect as Williams, Afflalo fits a major team need that Williams doesn't, which is to be a potential premier defender. (Afflalo was one of college basketball premier defenders in 2006-2007 for UCLA). Adding Afflalo lets you not have to spend any money signing a defensive free agent (like Quinton Ross) or needing to resign Kareem Rush. Cheick Samb from Senegal is a complete project needed to be included just to balance the salaries. By adding a late first round pick, it either gives Indiana a chance to add another quality player who slips into the 20's, or the Pacers could use it as a trade chip to move up into the begginning of the first round if they choose.
Williams has had some "issues" in Indiana as well, and while they aren't a huge detriment, it would be viewed as a positive step for some fans to purge the troubled youngster from the roster to get the more solid citizen in Afflalo. AA is also cheaper, and under contract longer than Williams.
This is a small move that would/could be a prelude to other moves. Thoughts?

It seems like we're not going to get a break from this summer heat wave! Seriously people, it's hot! And when it's hot like this, I wish I could run around naked, buuuuut I won't. I will try to wear something light and cool though. This is exactly what I tried to do with yesterday's outfit.
Turquoise and coral are two of my favorite summer colors, so why not pair them together? I found this foldover maxi skirt at GAP on sale (no longer available online). And paired it with this tank from Shade Clothing (old). You can't see them, but I'm wearing my favorite Steve Madden Achilees sandals in gold.
My bag is courtesy of Urban Expressions! I couldn't find it online, BUT you can find a bunch of their bags here. The bag is certified vegan, but still looks like leather and seems durable.
One thing I loved about this look was the necklace! Thank you to Style Queen for sending me their Woven Toggle Necklace ($48). I can already see me getting a lot of use out of this beauty! Make sure you check them out, they have a lot of great pieces. Bracelets are from Avenue (old).
This look helped me stay cool on a very hot L.A. day!
Disclosure: The handbag and necklace were gifted for review purposes only. The above is my true and honest opinion.

Owensboro Catholic's Rebecca Greenwell Chooses To Play College Basketball At Duke
Owensboro Catholic senior Rebecca Greenwell is currently ranked sixth in the nation among the 2013 recruiting class. Until Thursday, Greenwell had narrowed down her choices in the NCAA to two, Notre Dame and Duke. She had also previously visited with Vanderbilt, Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and of course visits with in-state rivals, Louisville and Kentucky. However, Greenwell broke the news on Twitter via a jersey photo that she would be wearing a DUKE jersey next season.

Tribute South West One West
Coney Hill 5, Bridgwater & Albion 9
BRIDGWATER & Albion head coach Kevin Innalls praised his side's gritty efforts as they secured a 9-5 victory over Coney Hill on Saturday, writes Tony Pomeroy.
Fly-half Stuart Heal scored all of Albion's points from the boot, courtesy of two penalties and a well-taken drop goal – and Innalls was pleased to come away with a win from a game played in horrendous weather conditions.
He said: "It was a funny old day, we started the game in pretty sedate weather conditions, but the storm hit at half-time and we ended up playing the second half into a howling gale.
"But it was one of those days where you've just get to get in and get the job done and come away with the four points. I thought we defended really well in the second half against the wind and I can't fault the lad's efforts – we battled hard.
"We probably could have scored a few tries to be honest, but a few decisions went against us. But as I said, our defence was great and everyone put in a string performance."
Bridgwater attacked from the kick off and with penalty advantage being played, Stuart Heal opened the scoring with a dropped goal just after a Bridgwater player failed to ground the ball for a try.
Bridgwater seemed in control and it was no surprise when Heal landed a very kickable penalty to double the visitor's lead.
Midway through the half, with the rain intensifying, a rare Coney Hill attack saw prop James crash over in the corner. The conversion attempt by A Wheller was wide.
Bridgwater managed to butcher a good scoring chance with poor handling, before Heal kicked a very simple penalty for a 5-9 lead which remained through the storm until half time.
The wind veered in the second half and was fully behind the home side, now playing with the elements.
Wheller was well wide with a very ambitious 45 metre penalty as Bridgwater defended solidly in the face of Coney Hill attacks.
The visitors were not helped by injuries which forced Tayler Buller and James Brakes off the field and they were later joined by replacement Roger Drabble.
Bridgwater were left with flankers at centre and wing and Rob Allen bravely stayed on the field despite a pronounced limp.
Towards the end, as the weather relented, Bridgwater came back into the game and were unlucky not to score on a couple of occasions.
When the final whistle blew, the Bridgwater players celebrated the narrow win, dedicated to Friday's Birthday Boy - coach Simon Martin - whose wife presented him with a son with whom he can now share his birthday.
Bridgwater now have two consecutive home matches - next week they entertain Clevedon in a game postponed a couple of weeks ago.
With the North Somerset side's match being called off this week, also, Bridgwater have overtaken them in the league but have played one game more.
They have also leap-frogged Cullompton to rise to eighth in the league and also have a game in hand on their Devon rivals.
Bridgwater Team Jon Hill, Garryn Basson, Rob Allen, Tayler Buller, James Brakes, Stuart Heal, Sam Knights, James Bryant, Matt Hastie, Joe Bussell, Ali Blundell, Dan Kemmish (Capt), Brian Webb, Ollie Dunn, Nick Spellissy.
Reps all used: Scott Woolford, Doug Page-Symonds, Roger Drabble.
Referee: Chris Goss (Bucks)
## NEXT Friday, January 31, Bridgwater will play host to Championship side, London Welsh.
They are stopping at College Way for a brief training session and lunch before continuing on to Cornwall to play Cornish Pirates.
They will arrive at about noon and have a 40 minute run out before lunching and continuing their journey at 2pm.

Topic: HAPPY EASTER
This is a time of renewal
as it happens every spring.
The flowers now are blooming
The birds begin to sing.
Easter is a time of hope
and a day of rebirth.
It shows that winter's over
And spring has come to earth.
It is a time of great personal reflection and faith. There is the deeply religious aspect, which is the essence of the tradition, and the more secular aspect, which celebrates the joyful side of the holiday and coincides with the changing of the seasons.
However you celebrate Easter I truly hope it means a new beginning of strength and healing and a time to reflect and love.

Virginia's McGee may consider transfer to Florida
Published: Friday, April 25, 2014 at 6:18 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, April 27, 2014 at 4:42 p.m.
Virginia senior tight end Jake McGee received his release from the school Friday and is expected to consider a possible transfer to Florida, The Sun has learned.
McGee will graduate from Virginia at the end of this semester and will be eligible to play this season, wherever he decides to transfer.
If McGee does chose the Gators, he would fill a huge need at the "B" position (hybrid tight end/slot receiver), where UF's current players struggled with production in the spring.
McGee seems to fit the position in Kurt Roper's uptempo offense.
He's 6-foot-6, 250 pounds and is considered an excellent receiver who can stretch the field with his 4.6-second speed in the 40-yard dash. He's already been projected as a third-round NFL draft pick in 2015 by ESPN analyst Mel Kiper Jr.
McGee has given no indication where he will transfer, but playing in the ACC, he's familiar with Roper's offense and how he could possibly fit in at Florida.
McGee was Virginia's leading receiver this past season with 43 receptions. For his career, he's caught 71 passes for 765 yards and seven touchdowns.
Virginia coach Mike London altered McGee's position after last season to make him a combination tight end/wide receiver to take advantage of his athletic ability.
London announced McGee's release and intention to transfer Friday. He has frequently referred to McGee as one of the Cavaliers' best players.
"I want to thank Jake for his contributions to the Virginia program and wish him the best," London said in a statement announcing McGee's decision. "When I came to UVA, he was one of the first players we recruited because he had committed to play for me at Richmond. I am very proud of the fact he will graduate from the university this spring. I hope he finds a program that fits his desires for his final season as a college player."
McGee was among those Virginia players most visibly upset at the end of last season, when the Cavaliers finished 2-10, and challenged his teammates to respond.
McGee is from Richmond, where he was an all-state quarterback and defensive back in high school.

Thread: What TV shows are you watching?
Never heard of this, certainly going to give the pilot a run in the evening.

So, have people who watch Misfits seen the finale? Without going into details, I thought it was slightly anti-climactic as a finale for a series but an excellent bridge between this series and whatever they do for the next one. (I have no idea what I expect from the next series.)
Oh, I didn't realise Simon was actually off the show now... thought they were gonna have more time-travel gubbins or link past and present some other way until "our" Simon reached the point where he got deaded.
Losing Alisha's no big deal but losing Simon's a shame. So that leaves us with Curtis and Kelly of the original cast and Rudy. Two new characters next series then?

Really? I feel somewhat vindicated in my accidental intention of not watching the third series of Misfits then. Sounds silly!
its been a bit meh this season of Misfits, only the last two episodes(not including the finale, not watched it) have had the old charm of the series to be honest. The rest of it has been middling at best or misguided at worst(I thought the nazi one was the worst they had done, not because of the idea, i thought it could have worked but the way they treated it) and hearing that Simon and alicia are going I might not tune into season 4 since to be honest the other characters haven't really been served well this season and starting to become a bit bland.

(More spoilers ahoy, obviously.)
As you say, with the nazi episode as a prime example I think the problem has been execution as much as anything. This series has been very up and down.
I think part of the problem is that from the finale of episode 2 onwards they've widened the scale in glimpses, but not really followed up on it properly. So we now know that, yes, people having powers is (presumably) quite common knowledge but not addressing the fact that this would change the world in noticeable ways.
And another problem is possibly that they've actually done bugger all with any of the main characters' powers. Aside from Seth since he seems to be one of the main ones now, and Rudy since he's a new character and they kinda had to. But Kelly, Alisha and Simon's barely had anything done with them aside from a few moments across a few episodes. Curtis' new one for the start of the series was used for one episode and then they started a second story with it that appears now to be dead (the pregnancy thing.)[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium][I]A brave heart and a courteous tongue.

20-12-2011, 10:20 PM #207But Kelly, Alisha and Simon's barely had anything done with them aside from a few moments across a few episodes. Curtis' new one for the start of the series was used for one episode and then they started a second story with it that appears now to be dead (the pregnancy thing.)
The power broker, I thought his story would amount to a lot more then that zombie episode and going out with kelly, but nope.
Curtis and his woman/baby. I thought their could have been an interesting episode on whether Curtis should have a baby or not, but they sorted that out in 5 seconds which felt very underwhelming.
Kelly and her Rocket Scientist thing, i swear there would have been an episode focusing on her and how well she got on with them and stuff, but that never happened either.
Simons one is the most disappointing, all that for what we basically knew in season 2, could have been an interesting episode in how to stop him repeating it over and over. But nope.
Found the Misfits finale seriously underwhelming, just felt like a rushed ending to a plotline that was seemingly being saved up for next season (after being the main narrative thread in s2). Then they ended up wrapping it up in 15 minutes at the end of an episode. I can understand the Alisha actress wanting to leave the series, as she's had bugger all to do this year, but it felt like a tacked on exit.
Nazi episode aside I've enjoyed the series, but I don't think it hit the heights of last year and with 3 of the main cast being shed now, I'm not sure I can see a way back for the show. That said I'll still watch it for Joe Gilgun and Lauren Socha's impeccable comic timing.
So, Sherlock, anybody? Thought it was absolutely fantastic, with a convincing and brilliant plot and some marvellous humour. Also Lara Pulver who certainly had some...gravitas for her role.
Hmm I thought that Sherlock was all over the place to be honest. But as soon as it got into the Irene Adler storyline properly it was pretty good. The humour of the show is really great. Watson though feels worse in this episode, I always thought he was not needed as a character in the first series but with Irene, and Sherlock's brother in this he's even more not needed!
I enjoyed Sherlock, but didn't feel like it was perfectly paced and plotted, I actually prefer the Stephen Fry/Guy Richie take on Sherlock's brother as well, he's a little bit bland in this. Apart from that it was mostly good though, great chemistry between the cast and the twists were handled deftly. One thing that irked me was when the CIA bad guy sent his henchmen out of the room for absolutely no reason and only after they had left decided to search for weapons, it's lazy writing to get the character out of a difficult situation that relies on a supposedly competent antagonist doing something incredibly stupid.
I had time to catch up with Black Mirror over the weekend and found it a mixed bag. The first episode didn't do anything for me and I turned it off halfway through. Like others have suggested it felt like a joke/silly idea stretched out over an hours worth of TV. On the other hand, I thought that 15 Million Merits was an outstanding piece of TV that worked on a number of levels. From its grim look at how we consume and obsess over our online identities, the sinister creeping doom of reality show based celebrity and Brooker's final satirical take on his own predicament, from being an outspoken critic, to selling out and becoming part of the system.
Cheers and Breaking Bad.

I just finished The IT Crowd. It was brilliant, and while working in IT helped make it funnier, my girlfriend doesn't and she loved it, too.
I'm on season 4 of watching The Wire solo, and season 1 of re-watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer with my girlfriend (I've watched the whole series a few times already, and she's only seen a handful of episodes but wants to watch the whole thing).
Meh. Nothing much beyond House M.D or travel shows, nowadays. Speaking of travel shows, watched Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations reruns. Found the Vietnam episode amusing.
Found The League to be highly amusing thanks to recommendations from this thread, so thanks for that. Funniest show since How I met your mother was good, although season three was a bit weaker than the two first.
Just finished the second series of Him & Her. Brilliant stuff, I'm glad they're also going to do a third one.
Still on Alias but I think I'm about to get passed where I watched up to when it was on telly, so it will be nice to stop vaguely remembering what's going to happen next!
I quite enjoyed Sherlock although for the first time it did irk me a bit. Irene Adler is supposed to outwit Holmes and it didn't really sit right that he ended up getting one over on her by the end of the episode. Enjoyable TV all the same.
I've been watching Peep Show at the moment and finding it really funny, Sometimes David Mitchells character reminds me of me in a horrible yet kind of funny way. Its really quite a tragic comedy as well, nothing really goes right for the two people and if there weren't comedy it would probably be a drama. But since it is I am loving it.
Warning; There may be some spoilers here for people whom havent seen the latest of recent shows like The Walking Dead, Dexter, Misfits and Merlin.
I've just finished Game of Thrones (for my 2nd time ^_~')
And I'm currently watching The Walking Dead (Where the mid-season finale made me cry.) Fringe... Which... Is still sodding awesome.
Supernatural (whose mid-season finale also made me cry. Bobby was a great character, and I loved the actor aswell. I'm also saddened about Castiels death, but I was expecting it to come, more or less :/)
Grimm (Which is rather... Underwhelming thusly.)
White Collar (Which contains some nice and witty writing, with some The Mentalist-esque stuff in there at times.)
The Mentalist (Getting a tad dull. Where in gods name is Red John!?)
Stargate SG-1... (Which... Is lovely. Not a huge fan of the season that I'm in (Wheres mah O'Neil!?) But then again, not anymore of it to come. It feels lovely having the entire set of SG-1 and Atlantis, in some way.)
Stargate Atlantis... (In which I love quite alot of the new cast to death. Especially Doctor WhatsHisFace, whom just seemed like an arse whenever he was seen in SG-1, but is alot more than... Well... An arse.)
Battlestar Galactica... (Finally got around to watching it again. Finished season 3 and forgot about it. One of my favourite Sci-fi shows of all time.)
House - (Love it. The witty and humourous writing makes it amazing.)
Aaaand last, but not least; Breaking Bad. Which I love to death.
Aaaaand I just recently finished Dexter (This season was quite boring and... Just not as good as the previous ones, guess it might be due to the fact that some of the old writers arent there anymore, and that its gotten a new director, yet again),
Misfits (Which I very much enjoyed this season, Rudy almost made up for Nathan! However the Nazi episode, as many of you have mentioned, was just unnecessarily weird and just felt... Weird. And the finale just felt rushed and dull, and now that we've only got 2 of the original crew, and Rudy left... Well, I'm not expecting much of the next season)
And Merlin (Whose season-finale also felt somewhat dull and rushed, alot of stuff happened in the episode, but alot of said stuff wasnt detailed and such, like getting a glimpse of their wedding, etc) :I
... I'm probably watching more stuff, and have probably finished alot more stuff recently, but my memory is terrible.
Also, if anyone are watching a great show that I havent mentioned, feel free to... Well, mention it! I'd love some recommendations.
TL;DR: Watching a ton of great shows, and I've definitely got excellent taste in eye-candy :P
... And I wouldnt mind even more good and / or great shows. :]

Research Interests
My research is in the area of developmental neuropsychology and developmental social-cognitive neuroscience. My work examines the behaviors that are associated with neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders like autism, Tourette syndrome, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other disorders characterized by repetitive behavior and restricted interests.
Together, with colleagues at Geisinger Health System, we examine the brain structure and function (using EEG and MRI) as it relates to behavior in children with rare and common genetic variants as well as in typically developing children and adolescents. In April 2013, we opened the Geisinger-Bucknell Autism and Developmental Medicine Institute (ADMI) here in Lewisburg. Our research group includes a talented team of Bucknell undergraduate and graduate students, and our Geisinger colleagues are nationally and internationally known geneticists, neurodevelopmental pediatricians, genetic counselors, and neuroradiologists.
Beginning in the summer of 2013, I will be on leave of absence, working on research at ADMI, but I am still interested in working with motivated students. Undergraduate or graduate students or research assistants who are looking for research opportunities and who have interests or experiences in neuroscience, genetics, computer programming and computational sciences, psychophysiology and neuroimaging, especially as they relate to autism spectrum disorders, should contact me at email@example.com.

Gas Prices are Going Up in New Jersey [AUDIO]
Prices at the pump have been holding steady since the spring in New Jersey, but that's now changing.
"You'll definitely see retail prices probably move up 10 or 15 cents within a short period of time now," says The Chief Oil Analyst for GasBuddy.com, Tom Kloza.
He points out unrest in Egypt, and a surge in demand for gasoline here at home in recent weeks, has pushed up the price of oil, and that's moving gas prices higher.
There is some good news, however.
"If we don't get any damaging hurricanes this summer into the fall, I think we're going to see prices drop in the last 100 days of the year," says Kloza. "Whatever you pay, let's say in the next couple of weeks, will be significantly higher than what you pay in October, November and December."
|Lowest Gas Prices in New Jersey
|New Jersey Gas Prices provided by GasBuddy.com
The wildcard in all this is what happens for the next few months during hurricane season, but Kloza points out we usually do not get a damaging storm that affects refineries in the Gulf of Mexico. It's the exception rather than the rule – so hopefully, the same scenario will play out this year.

I thought today I would tell you about a little on-going project I have. It was pointed out to me by my good friend Judy Ramsey that if everyone put the details that they had on the birth, marriage and death certificates that they owned onto FreeBMD as a Postem note then it would be of great help to others. Imagine if even a 10th of genealogists with English & Wales ancestors did that then FreeBMD would go from a great resource to a magnificent one !!
On the recent Unlock The Past Genealogy Cruise I upgraded a Flip-Pal scanner from a want to a need and bought one. Amazing how many genealogy toys/books/certificates/subscriptions can be upgraded if you try hard enough!. Today I shall start to use the Flip-Pal to scan all my certificates and double check that I have entered the information from them onto FreeBMD Postems.
Above is a screen-shot showing the small yellow envelope that appears next to a FreeBMD entry to show that someone has attached a note to that entry. You can find out how to attach a Postem, it's very easy, at http://www.freebmd.org.uk/postems-help.html
So go on, put an hour aside and get entering those details from your certificates, someone, somewhere, sometime will thank you for it

It surely is summertime, and it is a great time to visit neighbors, go for a walk and/or look at repairs that need to be done around the house. For those of us who own our homes, we always need to keep up with things. For those who live in apartments, etc., it can give peace of mind to have a list of phone numbers for emergencies.
It is hard for some to believe we can't handle plumbing, carpentry chores and landscaping jobs anymore. But, with a few exceptions, it is not safe or wise for us to tackle most jobs. Your kids will be so glad I said this to you as well! Besides, it is great to sit in a lawn chair and watch.
Ask your friends who they use for service jobs, and keep a list. It will make you feel safer. When it is time, call and have them come to give you estimate in writing. They should be pleasant, respectful and offer the time frame when work will be done and if they have insurance. Use people in your own community, and check to make sure they have the required permits for your town or village. I have used out-of-town services, but local workmen recommended them. If you feel comfortable, check once more with a friend or family member and proceed.
It is hard to admit we need help sometimes, but it is alright. Our loved ones don't want us to get hurt or scammed. It is as simple as that. But it is hard to ask our kids for every little chore as well. If they wonder what is going on, explain it gives you some mastery over your life to get professional help sometimes. They will see it in a new light, and it may also relieve them.
This has been about repairs, but this can apply to asking for help in other areas. Be gracious when others take your arm, or help at the store, or suggest you need help in filling out forms etc. It is OK to ask. You have done your job helping others all your lives, and you know how good that feels. Let them return the favor.
We need to be realistic about our aging process, and we should be gracious about it. I know, I know. But let's face it, being pleasant and having a sense of humor goes a long way. Hope all is well — and through it all, don't forget to be kind.

NINE people who urinated in York's streets have become the first to be prosecuted and fined under a council and police crackdown.
City of York Council used a local by-law to take legal action against members of the public who decided to spend a penny on various city-centre streets - and has today named and shamed them.
The authority says it expects further prosecutions, with the nine who were caught through the first wave of 'Operation Clean' - carried out by the council and North Yorkshire Police - being fined a total of £600 after appearing at Selby Magistrates Court.
They are:
* Thomas Swales, of Blatchford Court, Clifton, York - fined £50 for urinating at Varvills Court.
* Samuel Wellen, of Russell Street, York - fined £50 for urinating in Peter Street.
* Robert McGowan, of Cornlands Road, York - fined £75 for urinating in Coney Street.
* Mervyn Smith, of Telford - fined £75 for urinating in Shambles.
* David Benson, of Goole - fined £75 for urinating in Coney Street.
* Christopher Doyle, of Doncaster - fined £75 for urinating in Bridge Street.
* Jon Webb, of Stockton-on-Tees - fined £100 for urinating in Coney Street.
* James Reeney, of Byram, Knottingley - fined £50 for urinating on Ouse Bridge.
* Robert Peacock, of Goole - fined £50 for urinating at Varvills Court.
All nine were each also ordered to pay £100 court costs and a £15 victim surcharge.
"We will not tolerate this anti-social and unhygienic behaviour committed in our city by a small minority," said Coun Dafydd Williams, the council's cabinet member for crime and stronger communities.
"Our innovative use of a by-law and our partnership with North Yorkshire Police will target this crime and prosecute those caught offending in this way."
Sergeant Fiona Willey, of the York Safer Neighbourhood Team, said: "This is a positive result which I hope will show a decrease in this type of behaviour in the city centre.
"The majority of those prosecuted had just left a venue or were on their way to one where toilets were available. I hope this sends a clear message that people relieving themselves in a street or doorway is not acceptable and affects the quality of life for businesses and members of the public.
"We will continue to work with the council to ensure offenders are dealt with robustly."
The council said free unisex toilets in the city centre are available at all times, at Union Terrace and Nunnery Lane car parks, Exhibition Square and Tanner Row, while the Silver Street toilets are open until 8pm every day and sometimes later during city-centre events.

Much has been written or presented on the process of converting content for mobile devices and tablets. But little has been written about how we must change the way we write for delivery to a device that displays about one ninth of web or PDF content viewed on a single laptop screen.
This blog touches on a few of the points I shared in my Intelligent Content Conference 2012 (#ICC12) presentation, "Resizing Content for the Small Screen: Considerations for Single-Source Authoring for Tablet and Mobile Delivery." Subsequent blogs and probably an enhanced conference presentation on this topic will follow. Since only two of my 34 PPT slides had been seen before, I was curious how the early riser audience would react. The participants did connect with the message; in fact a few of them missed breakfast staying for an overtime discussion.
From this …
To this
…. In just 5,000 years
Ironically, some of the earliest known business "documents" were composed and read on "tablets." Some 5,000 years later, we have come full circle to tablets again, only this time they are digitally dynamic, capable of receiving up-to-the-minute correct data. Due to their small size and portability, Sumerian clay tablets held concise, to the point messages in Cuneiform. Now that we are delivering content that was written for another medium to our new, iPhone-sized "tablets", we need to reexamine the length and relevance of what we intend to deliver.
If I were wearing my Adobe Evangelist hat and wanted to make a shameless sales pitch, I would write about the ease of swapping templates in FrameMaker and Tech Comm Suite to shape content to resemble a small screen while you write. Or comment about single-source publishing from FrameMaker via RoboHelp to a variety of ePub formats. But that's not my mission today.
Remembering what you hear can "measure" what would effectively display on an iPhone
Colleges provide different tracks for Broadcast Journalism vs. Print Journalism. Why? Because TV or Radio news content must be substantially shorter than what is written for newspapers or magazines. (Substitute your favorite digital equivalents for the media mentioned in the previous sentence.) Our brains can process and remember more points when visible text is present. When we process information that we hear with no supporting visible text, we can handle about one thought per sentence. And sentences must be shorter; no longer than normal speed speech with one breath. (Please don't consider my verbal speech/speed and words per breath as a good model to follow!) Continue reading…

One of the advantages or reading Newsweek on an ipad is that the definition of unfamiliar words is a clink away.
William A. Hupy
Re: passementerie
Well, this one sure led me on a merry path. Of course, as was the plan, I had to look it up. One definition on dictionary.com was "a decorative trimming of gimp." Okay, got that one, too. But, in the "related" words section I saw claudication. Turns out it's related to another gimp (#3, not #2, which I've never heard, though I live there), but a fun trip nonetheless. Thanks.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

DEFENDING champion Matt Neal said his double Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship triumph at Oulton Park took him by surprise.
The Worcestershire driver stormed to second in the standings with victory in the first and third race at the Cheshire circuit.
Honda Yuasa Racing Team colleague Gordon Shedden won the second to give him a five-point lead over Neal, while Jason Plato is third after putting a first-race mechanical problem behind him to claim two podium places.
Shenstone-based Neal, who was fifth in the second race, said: "I never expected a win at all today. I really thought Jason was going to have it his own way —- so for two to come along is a real surprise.
"If he can have a problem, though, it just goes to show how quickly it can turn around and there's still a very long way to go in the season."
Plato set a qualifying lap record to grab pole position on the starting grid for the first race but a problem with his KX Momentum Racing MG6 meant he didn't line up on the grid.
Neal took victory in his Honda Civic ahead of Andrew Jordan's Pirtek Racing Civic and Robert Collard's eBay Motors BMW.
It was Shedden's turn to win in race two as Jordan took another second place finish, with Plato, from the back of the grid, taking third after a stunning drive through the pack.
Neal won again in race three, this time from Plato and Collard's team-mate Tom Onslow-Cole, while Hereford's Lea Wood was fifth in his BINZ Racing Vauxhall Vectra.

It's not long, and its important. The defendant is in court over a couch the city does not want on his tenant's lawn. He's also the host of a nationally syndicated radio show, Free Talk Live. He got 93 days in jail, 30 for three seperate contempt of court charges, of which we don't know what they are since the trial was held behind closed doors.

Cal notes: Panik cool under pressure
Giants shortstop comfortable with expectations, comparisons
By Chris Martinez / Special to MLB.com | May 2, 2012 6:00 AM ET
One of those prospects was shortstop Joe Panik, a first-round pick in the 2011 Draft. Ranked as the No. 7 prospect in San Francisco's system, Panik turned heads last year by winning the Northwest League MVP Award and then hitting .323 in 27 games in the Arizona Fall League. He was NWL batting champ with a .341 average and took home the RBI crown as well.
Though he's off to a somewhat sluggish this season, Panik chalks up his prior success to confidence and seeks to recapture that momentum in 2012.
"I [played well] against high-caliber players in the Arizona Fall League," he said. "Baseball is so mental. You prepare in the offseason with your strength and conditioning, but [for me] the last few seasons have been about confidence."
Panik has another connection to San Francisco, aside from the pipeline up the peninsula. Former All-Star shortstop Rich Aurilia broke out with the Giants as a power hitter in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Like Panik, Aurilia attended St. John's University in Jamaica, N.Y. Though Panik aims to follow Aurilia's lead to the big leagues, he refuses to succumb to the pressure of being compared to anyone.
"As a player you want to succeed no matter what," he said. "[It doesn't matter] where you're drafted or if you sign as a free agent."
Panik is in a good position to deal with the daily grind of a full season after amassing 589 at-bats in 2011 between his junior season at St. John's, his time with Salem-Keizer in the Northwest League and the month he played for Scottsdale in the AFL.
"You don't want to look at the big picture in terms of 140 games and 500 at-bats," he said. "I stay focused on what's at hand."
Top Nut: Entering the week on a nine-game hitting streak, Modesto outfielder Corey Dickerson leads his club with a .337 average, .551 slugging percentage and 16 RBIs in 24 games. The Mississippi native, who turns 23 this month, is coming off a big year with Class A Asheville, where he hit 32 home runs in 106 games.
Stingy Cingrani: Bakersfield left-hander Tony Cingrani remains atop the league leaderboard with a 0.39 ERA. His most recent start was a one-hit masterpiece against Stockton on April 26. Cingrani struck out eight and walked one over six scoreless innings. He's allowed two runs -- one earned -- with 28 strikeouts in 23 frames.
Flawless victories: Rancho Cucamonga closer Logan Bawcom is sporting a spotless ERA in eight appearances this season. He's picked up five saves and 16 strikeouts in 10 1/3 innings. Bawcom hasn't allowed a hit since April 10 against Lancaster -- the only hit he's yielded all season.

Topic: Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
As I write and introduce myself for the first time, my heart aches for each and every member and their families whom have been diagnosed with Cholangiocarcinoma.
My incredible strong mother was diagnosed with Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma in May 2012. Our hearts have been broken since then and the tears for me flow silently each and every day since that dreaded day in May. My mother however, who is the "rock" in our family has continued to smile each day and has given my family the strength to continue to fight this cancer. My mother is 60 years young and has only ever been in hospital three times in her life and this was to have her three daughters of which I am the eldest with two younger sisters. Recently my mum and dad celebrated 40 years of marriage and my folks welcomed in their fourth grand-child and first grand-daughter into the family.
My mum's only symptoms before her diagnoses were a three/four day change in her urine and jaundice once she was admitted into hospital. Initially we and the Dr's were hoping that it was gallstone related but once an MRI was completed our worst nightmare had begun. After a biopsy and further testing we were told that a resection of the liver was not an option and the cancer had spread to three lymph nodes outside the liver. At this stage all other organs are healthy with no signs of any tumours. A metal stent was place in mum's bile duct and she was told to go home and commence chemotherapy.
Mum's chemotherapy treatment plan is Gemcitabine (Gemzar) and Platinum for a few hour/s each week for three weeks of each month. After the first three months of chemotherapy mum will have a MRI scan to see if the treatment is working or at least holding the tumours.
As time of each day is precious to us now, I have been searching the internet (which can be very overwhelming and depressing I must say) for Clinical Trials and as there seems to be none in Australia at present. Has anyone had any luck with any Clinic Trials in any part of the world with Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma. If so I would love to take this to the Oncologist and or email the hospital conducting the trials directly and see if a miracle could be waiting for my family.
