Candy Sagon on Mokomandy: Unusual partners make a nice team
Korean and ... Cajun??? I have to admit, this idea seemed a little strange to me when I first heard about Mokomandy, a sleek new restaurant in Sterling. And I'm not the only one. Owner Thaddeus Kim has heard almost every variation of "You're adding kimchi to your jambalaya?"
The answer, thank goodness, is no. This isn't fusion. It is more like a duet: two cuisines, kept separate but harmonized into an interesting, fun dining experience.
In a way, it's how Kim grew up. His mother is from Louisiana, his father from Korea. Kim, a lawyer who also has worked for his father's high-tech company, says he wanted to open a restaurant "that celebrates the diversity of our country." The name stands for "modern Korean by Mandy," in honor of his mother, who would cook both cuisines for the family.
Mandy is not the one in this kitchen, however. That job belongs to first-time executive chef Daniel Wilcox Stevens, who has put a sophisticated spin on well-known Korean dishes such as bulgogi beef and on Cajun all-stars such as gumbo and jambalaya.
Manager Neill Blackwood, formerly of Trummer's on Main, has crafted a small but stellar list of specialty cocktails to pair with the food, including a wickedly smooth Sazerac made with an unexpected dollop of coffee syrup. In case you didn't know, the Louisiana Legislature declared the Sazerac, a potent rye whiskey drink, the official state cocktail in 2008, which is why it was a must for Mokomandy.
The restaurant, which opened in August, is in a great-looking space in an otherwise unremarkable shopping center. There are blond wood tables and flooring, comfy chairs, lots of natural light from tall front windows, and a spacious bar highlighted with a red accent wall. Every guest I took here stopped, looked around and said, "Wow."
Of course, the question is, does the food rate a wow? I'd say it rates a "wo." It's a little timid on the seasoning here and there, the desserts could be better, and the chef needs to talk to whomever's doing the frying, but Stevens and company are definitely on the right track.
The menu takes the traditional Korean idea of banchan -- lots of little dishes of pickled vegetables and other finger foods to accompany your meal -- and builds on that. There are 16 different panchan at $2 each, including two kinds of kimchi, deep-fried kale chips, mixed fries, firecracker carrots and pickled green tomatoes. The fries, sweet and white potato, need salt, but the pickled veggies are terrific.
Order a selection to go along with the ssam: Korean-style lettuce wraps filled with purple rice; your choice of chicken, beef of pork; and a pickled radish garnish. They're cute, inoffensive, but kind of bland. They definitely need a kick from some kimchi or, even better, the restaurant's own hot sauce. Ask for some.
From there, you can choose from 13 small dishes, most of which are Cajun-style. Order the jambalaya or the gumbo, and you will understand what the chef means by "modern" cooking. The dishes are almost deconstructed so that the main ingredients are accentuated and artfully arranged instead of just glopped together. The smoky jambalaya, with house-made cracklin's and sausage, is a winner; the mild gumbo, with its bland drumstick awkwardly sticking upright in the rice, pales in comparison.
The kitchen redeems itself, however, with the crab cake po' boys, which I think my husband would have ordered at each of our three visits if I had let him. The three crab cakes are done slider-style on petite brioche buns. They are a perfect little combo of sweet crab, buttery bun, tart pickle and creamy remoulade sauce. The hardest thing you'll have to do is share them.
We also liked the gator croquettes, crunchy golf-ball-size fritters that are described on the menu thus: "House-made bacon, bechamel, sauce piquante." Well, all those things are in there, but there's also something else: real gator meat. Yes, really. If you must know, it's sweeter and even milder than chicken.

Los Angeles - Los Angeles Dodgers star outfielder Manny Ramirez was placed on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday due to a calf injury.
Ramirez suffered the injury in the first inning of last Friday's 8-4 loss to the Cardinals. It was just his second game back from a stint on the DL for a right hamstring injury.
The left-fielder missed the next three games before an MRI Tuesday revealed a strain in his right calf.
Ramirez was hitting .317 with eight homers and 39 RBI in 61 games this season.
To take his place on the roster, the Dodgers activated catcher Brad Ausmus from the 60-day disabled list. Ausmus had back surgery in April.

RHINELANDER, Wis., Oct. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Football season has drivers across the country getting geared up for the pre-game celebrations and time spent cheering on their favorite teams with friends and family. Whether at the stadium or a neighbor's backyard, these tailgates won't be complete without some of the best Honda tailgating cars. Available at Rhinelander Honda, the 2014 Honda Pilot, 2014 Honda Odyssey, and the 2014 Honda CR-V will be making each tailgate much fun with space for fellow sports fans and all of the game day essentials.

The 2014 Honda Odyssey is the perfect vehicle for taking the entire family to its first football game. Earning up to an *EPA-estimated 28 mpg highway, the minivan makes the trek to the stadium much more efficient for long-distance sports fans. After the tailgate has taken place and it's time to pack up to head inside the stadium, the Odyssey offers up its available HondaVAC, the built-in vacuum designed to make every mess virtually non-existent even after a tailgate.
The 2014 Honda CR-V is the perfect mix of fuel-efficiency, space, and technology. Offering up to an **EPA-estimated 31 mpg highway, up to 70.9 u-ft for a mini grill and cold drinks, and technology like the available SMS Text Message system found in the intelligent Multi-Information Display (i-MID), drivers will be able to get to the stadium efficiently, host an awesome tailgate, and contact fellow sports fans without taking their hands or eyes off the road.

TOKYO – To shore up a tumbling stock market and a troubled currency, South Korea announced yesterday that it would guarantee $100 billion in foreign debt and supply $30 billion to banks and exporters in urgent need of dollars.
Amid a global financial crisis, South Korea has emerged as among the most vulnerable major economies in Asia, despite plenty of foreign reserves in its central bank and booming exports to China, India and the Middle East.
The credit ratings agency Standard & Poor's placed five major South Korean banks on a watch list last week, citing their problems in finding dollars to repay foreign currency loans. President Lee Myung-bak has pleaded with citizens to stop hoarding dollars and "refrain from greedily pursuing private interests."
Finance and central bank officials in Seoul had resisted the kind of sweeping guarantees to banks and financial institutions that have been offered in the United States, Europe and elsewhere in Asia. They had insisted that the fundamentals of their country's economy were strong and said the foreign media were exaggerating financial problems.
Yesterday, though, the government conceded that fear has trumped fundamentals. South Korea's currency, the won, is down 30 percent against the dollar this year, making it the biggest loser among major world currencies. The stock market has fallen 38 percent. Panicky foreign investors have pulled more than half their holdings out of South Korean stocks.
"As other major economies start providing guarantees to interbank loans, the Korean government will take similar measures to avoid placing domestic banks at a comparative disadvantage in terms of overseas funding and to allay fears in the financial markets," a government statement said.
The central bank will guarantee, up to $100 billion, foreign-currency loans made by domestic banks from today through June, the government said. It estimated that the banks owe about $80 billion in loans that come due before the end of June.
The Bank of Korea has about $240 billion in foreign exchange reserves and will make $30 billion available to local banks that have grown increasingly desperate to find dollars to repay foreign currency-denominated loans, the government announced.
The loan guarantees require approval from the parliament. Until then, the government said, the Korea Development Bank or Korea Eximbank will cover the new commitments.
To prop up the stock market and investment firms, the government said it "will provide tax incentives for long-term holdings of funds." And to help small and medium-size businesses, many of which have failed to find credit in recent months, the government said it would make an investment that should release about $10 billion in loans.

Seven Kingdoms: Seowyn's Crossing
Gith Devnara
Gith Devnara was a member of the proto-race that eventually split into the Githyanki and Githzerai. Born in the Far Realm during that races enslavement by the illithids, she was, none the less, possessed of a stubborn and rebellious streak. She eventually escaped her masters and fled into deeper parts of the Far Realm. There she learned the fighting style favored by the entities that would one day be called the Kalashtar and used these techniques to aid others of her race in their own escapes.
Devnara and her followers fled the Far Realm during one of its conjunctions with Tol, but their time in the realm of madness had changed them so much that they could feel no kinship with the world of their forefathers. They eventually split into two groups. The githyanki traveled to the Astral Sea to seek spiritual immortality and eventually came to reside there, becoming a piratical scourge. The githzerai chose to travel to the Elemental Chaos where they became a bastion of order in that anarchic place.

Luggage storage at Osaka/Umeda Station
If I would like to storage my luggage at the above station about 7 days, which way is more cost effective, coin locker or storage room. My luggage will be either medium or large size.
One thing I'm quite confuse in coin locker is can we insert enough coin to cover few days storage? Or the station staff will clear the locker after certain days?
What is the operation hours for storage room?
Hi there,
Coin lockers generally can't be used for such a long period of time. It's ether 48h or sometimes 72h. So my advise would be to look for a cloakroom if you can. Although I am not ever sure if there is one available.
Perhaps you could ask your accommodation to hold on for it for a couple of days. Most hotels will provide this service if you could back.

West Midlands transport disrupted by heavy snow
Heavy snow, which has fallen almost continuously across Birmingham and the Black Country over the last 24 hours, has caused travel delays.
Midland Metro said it was only running a service between Priestfield and Birmingham, with delays, due to adverse weather conditions.
Several trees also fell onto a railway line causing disruptions.
Birmingham Airport was open although a spokesman warned operations could be affected later, as snow continues.
Amber alert
London Midland reported several trees had fallen onto lines in the Barnt Green area, disrupting services between Hereford and Birmingham.
Services later resumed but with delays, a spokesman said. A tree also fell onto the line at Redditch, causing delays for a time.
An amber alert from the Met Office, which warns people to be prepared for disruption to normal routines and longer journey times, is likely to remain in place until Monday.
An Environment Agency spokesman warned that it would turn very cold later on Saturday night with the snow and slush freezing hard.
BBC WM reporter Rebecca Dickson said the snow was at least 1ft (30cm) deep in some areas, including Cannon Hill Park in Birmingham.
She said it was very quiet on the streets and roads, apart from some dog walkers.
Staff at Dudley Zoo got into work early to break the ice on frozen pools for the penguins and sealions and bring in additional heaters for meerkats and small primates.
Keepers also made warm drinks for the apes, a spokesman said. Their drink of choice is warm Ribena and orange cordial.

It's a mystery. I remember looking for an AMD dual core years ago. If memory serves me correctly there were only a couple of dual core CPUs with the socket in question and the model with the highest clock speed was somewhat in demand second hand. A couple I stopped bidding on eventually went for around the same amount it cost me to buy a new mid-priced motherboard, a newer faster CPU, and still have a few dollars left over to put towards RAM.
Maybe they just can't prove or verify that they are working. And just like any other financial transaction - Buyer Beware.
I have a couple of rare audio CDs here that I have owned for many years. They are expensive, but I'm sure nobody in their right mind would pay between $150 - $199 for them. People do make listings with desperate suckers in mind....perfectly legal.
There are local shops around here that trade in used motherboards. People use them to rebuild others. They make pretty good $$ doing it.

Lots of mobos get tossed when they belly up, but in nearly all cases it was because the electrolytic caps died.
In a few cases it was because someone mishandled the processor socket, and twisted some of the pins in there (genius Intel transferred the problem that used to be that of the processor pins, to the mobo manufacturer), or in like manner forcibly tried to wrongly insert items in the memory & PCI, PCIe slots. In this case the mobo has to be closely examined if it can be saved before you buy, something kvetchy over ebay. But hey if its cheap enuff why not. And yes, nothing above $100, if that.For the nth time, with the possible exception of certain Intel processors, I don't have/ever owned anything whose name starts with "i".

Lack of Financial Transparency in Public Education
October 8, 2013
Public schools are usually the most costly item in state and local budgets. Yet despite tremendous and persistent spending growth in the last half-century, the public vastly underestimates the true cost of public education, says the Cato Institute.
To better understand the source of this misperception, the Cato Institute examines the spending data that all 50 state education departments make available to the public on their websites. The report reveals that very few state education departments provide complete and timely financial data that is understandable to the general public.
- Half of all states report a "per pupil expenditures" figure that leaves out major cost items such as capital expenditures, thereby significantly understating what is actually spent. Alaska does not even report per pupil expenditure figures at all.
- Eight states fail to provide any data on capital expenditures on their education department websites. Ten states lack any data on average employee salaries and 41 states fail to provide any data on average employee benefits.
When the state education departments provide incomplete or misleading data, they deprive taxpayers of the ability to make informed decisions about public school funding. At a time when state and local budgets are severely strained, it is crucial that spending decisions reflect sound and informed judgment.

General Comments
I have just read through all the reviews on here for the patriot and it seems most have never shot 1 or are just rubbish shots. I shot 1 yesterday for the first time. It has been sat on the dealers shelf for 18 months that I know of. I was shooting at 50mtrs with bisly pest control pellets with OPEN sights plus they was a strong wind ,I was able to get 2" groups with out a problem. It does have some weight behind it but then thats because its built so solid the finish is A1 and accuracy fantastic and trigger is spot on and all this from a rifle that has been sat on a dealers shelf for 18+ months. As for cocking effort only slightly more than a 12ftlb rifle and recoil no more than the HW90, I had 8-).Did I buy it, you bet. Just have to wait until my variation comes back before I can pick it up and take it home. It will be joining the 30 firearms I have on ticket and be joining me down the range and every hunting trip. Just need to find a scope for it..

Ros Sereysothea: រស់ សេរីសុទ្ធា
Ros Sereysothea (1948-1977) was a famous Cambodian singer during the nation's thriving cultural renaissance. She sang from a variety of genres but romantic ballads emerged as her most popular works. Despite a rather short career she is credited with producing hundreds of songs and even starring in a few movies. Details of her life and fate during the Khmer Rouge is relatively unknown but it is generally accepted she did not survive.
Growing up relatively poor, Ros Sothea was the second youngest of five children and displayed vocal talent around the age of three or four. Her talent would remain relatively hidden until she was persuaded by friends to join a regional singing contest in 1963. It is believed that Im Song Seurm, a singer from the National Radio heard of Sothear's talents and invited her to the capital, Phnom Penh in 1967.
In Phnom Penh, she adopted the alias Ros Sereysothea and became a singer for National Radio performing duets with Im Song Seurm. Her first hit, Stung Khieu debuted the same year and she quickly attracted fans with her clear and high pitch voice. Recognized as a national treasure she was honored by King Norodom Sihanouk with the royal title of "Preah Reich Theany Somlang Meas", the "Golden Voice of the Royal Capital".
By the 1970s, Sothear began experimenting in other genres. Her high, clear voice, coupled with the rock backing bands featuring prominent, distortion-laden lead guitars, pumping organ and loud, driving drums, made for an intense, sometimes haunting sound that is best described today as psychedelic or garage rock. And like the leader of the music scene, Sinn Sisamouth, Sothear would often take popular Western rock tunes, such as John Fogerty's "Proud Mary" and refashion them with Khmer lyrics.
Her career would continue until the Khmer Rouge captured the beleaguered capital, Phnom Penh in April 1975. Like everyone else when the Khmer Rouge took over, she was forced to leave Phnom Penh. There are many speculations regarding her fate from a variety witnesses. Her sisters insist that Sothea along with their mother and children were taken to Kampong Som province and executed immediately following the Fall of Phnom Penh.
With the cultural upheaval by the Khmer Rouge, scant evidence of Ros Serey Sothear's life remains. However, many recordings have survived and have started to gain exposure through reissues on cassette and CD.
Songs by Sothea, Sinn Sisamouth and other Cambodian singers of the era, Meas Samoun, Chan Chaya, Choun Malai and Pan Ron, are featured on the soundtrack to Matt Dillon's film City of Ghosts. Tracks by Sothea are "Have You Seen My Love", "I'm Sixteen" and "Wait Ten Months". Also "I'm Sixteen" was taken for the soundtrack of the 2010 movie of Detlev Buck "Same Same, but different"
The Los Angeles band Dengue Fever, which features Cambodian lead singer Chhom Nimol, covers a number of songs by Sothea and other singers from the short-lived Cambodian rock and roll scene. –condensed from Wikipedia biography.

Review for Northern Illinois Food Bank, Geneva, IL, USA
The Northern Illinois Food Bank is one of my favorite local charities. With one in six people in Illinois being food insecure, their work in distributing food is so important! Many people aren't aware that NIFB also has a positive effect on the environment. We use a tremendous amount of fresh water and energy resources in producing food, yet, as a society, we throw away almost half of what we produce. Of the nearly 35 million pounds of food distributed by NIFB last year, 2/3 of it otherwise would have been thrown away. By saving food, NIFB also saves resources. In addition to their great work, NIFB is a fun place to volunteer with a group. I had my birthday party there 2 years ago. My friends volunteered, then came over for a barbecue. Keep up the good work!
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I've taken a great deal of interest in NIFB both through my church and through a class that I teach on energy and the environment. In church, I presented an object lesson for the kids in the congregation explaining NIFB's Backpack Program. In my class, I designed an assignment in which the students volunteer, then calculate how much fresh water they saved and how much greenhouse gas they prevented by saving food that otherwise would have been thrown away.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I support NIFB's plans for expansion to meet even more of the need in Illinois.

Gay New Orleans
Mardi Gras, jazz and amazing food! New Orleans is a major tourist destination for so many reasons. Southern Decadence (the biggest LGBT circuit party in the south) takes place in "The Crescent City" every Labor Day Weekend but there's a gay ol' time to be had all year round.
If you're a fair weather traveler, NOLA is the city for you. The climate tends to be mild in the winter and spring, while the summer and fall months are more humid.
Whether you're driving or need to rely on public transportation, maneuvering around New Orleans is relatively easy. There is street parking available in the French Quarter and the famed streetcars will take you to several key destinations downtown. There are shuttle and bus services that will transport you from Louis Armstrong International Airport in Metairie to downtown New Orleans.
The crime rate in New Orleans is higher than many major cities in the United States. However, most incidents take place outside of tourist areas like the French Quarter. At night, visitors are encouraged not to travel alone on poorly lit streets.
The Gay Scene in New Orleans
The French Quarter is definitely the epicenter of the gay scene in New Orleans; the most happening spot being the corner of Bourbon and St. Ann.

Restaurants in New Orleans
Once your stomach calls for a break - and, with all these great restaurants around, it surely will - make sure to eat a global-NOLA-inspired fusion dish at Stella! Sample gumbo and crawfish pie at the gay-popular BYOB restaurant Eat and don't forget to grab a café au lait and one of New Orlean's signature beignets, powdered-sugar French bread doughnuts, at Café du Monde on Decatur Street.

Microsciences Kit Training: Opening of the University Academic Year in Côte d'Ivoire
UNESCO participated in the celebration of the re-opening of the University Academic Year 2012-2013 in Cote-d'Ivoire on 30 August - 6 September 2012. Teachers and students were trained by Ms Amelle Korichi to use Microscience kits to conduct experimentations when learning about the basic sciences through a UNESCO training workshop. This event was presided by the President and the Prime Minister of Cote-d'Ivoire.
The Global Microscience Experiment Project is a hands-on science education initiative that gives primary and secondary school students (in some cases university students as well) the opportunity to conduct practical work in physics, chemistry and biology, using kits that come with booklets describing possible scientific experiments.

Dallas Cowboys X-Factors Primed for Huge Week 4 PerformancesSeptember 24, 2013
The Dallas Cowboys head into their Week 4 matchup with the San Diego Chargers as the only team in the NFC East with a winning record. They'll be looking for a great game from one of their many under-the-radar players this week to help lead them to a 3-1 record.
Sometimes star players aren't the only guys a team can rely on during a weekly basis. For instance, Dez Bryant has been slowed down significantly in both of Dallas' victories because the opposition has schemes in place to do so. This just means there are opportunities for others to step up and make plays instead.
After a dominating home win against St. Louis, Dallas has to feel confident heading into their showdown with the Chargers. For the first time in awhile, the Cowboys were able to run the football and DeMarco Murray reminded us all why we have confidence in his ability. The former Oklahoma Sooner carried it 26 times for 175 yards and a score.
San Diego enters the game coming off a heartbreaking defeat in Tennessee where it lost in the final minutes. The Chargers now sit at 1-2.
Dallas has one of the most star-studded rosters in the NFL, but it will need breakout performances from certain X-factors in order to continue its winning ways.
Gavin Escobar, TE
Gavin Escobar was the Cowboys' second-round draft pick this year. The tight end had done just about nothing until he caught a 24-yard touchdown this past week.
Despite the touchdown being his only catch of the game, Escobar has the talent and potential to be the next big-play Cowboy. He's extremely athletic and a tough matchup for any linebacker or safety.
After Sunday's victory, Escobar has now recorded one catch in each of the first three games. Although these statistics won't have people adding him to their fantasy squads, look for these numbers to improve over the course of the season.
James Hanna was projected to contend with Escobar for the No. 2 tight end spot this season. However, Hanna had zero targets in Week 3 and it appears that Escobar is above him in the pecking order. With less people fighting for looks from quarterback Tony Romo, Escobar will be able to actually have an impact.
Rookies tend to only get better as their first year continues. Now that Romo has seen Escobar can make quality plays, watch out for him to contribute even more and have a solid week against San Diego.
J.J Wilcox, S
Wilcox got an opportunity to start because veteran Will Allen looked shaky during the first two weeks of the season. Now that the rookie has tasted the starting role, he will be hard-pressed to give it back.
The former Georgia Southern player is still fine-tuning his talents at the safety position, but he brings a different skill set to the table compared to Allen. Wilcox seems much more lively on the field and is always around the action.
The Cowboys defense seems to be improving every week and is stronger than it's been in several years. With outstanding play coming from players like DeMarcus Ware and Sean Lee, Wilcox will be able to play center field and make plays.
If Dallas continues to shut down opponents' running games and can generate pressure on the quarterback, Wilcox will have a great performance.
Miles Austin, WR
Miles Austin is one of the better known Cowboys in the league despite not playing particularly well of late. After a big showing Week 1 against New York, he's only recorded five catches over the last two games.
With Bryant not being 100 percent healthy because of a lingering back issue, Austin must raise his level of play and return to looking like a No. 1 option. Even with Bryant feeling good, defenses have shown thus far this season they're paying extra attention to the dynamic receiver.
Every time Austin lines up opposite of Bryant, he should be thinking touchdown. The amount of attention Dez is creating should be enough to free up Austin for four quarters every week to make game-changing plays.
Although Cowboys fans probably hung their heads in disappointment when Austin exited the game with a hamstring issue, it seems the injury is not serious.
Austin is one of the best playmaking receivers in the league when he's healthy and playing right. If the hamstring is ready to go, look for him to have a monster week in San Diego and help lead Dallas to another W.

A Leak Somewhere
Poem: "A Leak Somewhere," by Mary Jo Salter from A Kiss in Space (Alfred A. Knopf).
It was on this day in 1912 that TARZAN first appeared, in a story by a Chicago ad writer, Edgar Rice Burroughs the saga of an English nobleman's son abandoned in the African jungle and brought up by apes.
It's the birthday, in Kansas City in 1939, or William Lewis Trogdon, who, in the spring of 1978, laid off from his English teaching job and separated from his wife of ten years, reverted to his native-American name: WILLIAM LEAST HEAT-MOON, and set out on a tour of rural America. He later described the journey in his book BLUE HIGHWAYS.
It's the birthday of THEODORE DREISER, born in Terra Haute, Indiana, 1871, author of An American Tragedy (1925). He was the ninth of ten children, and grew up moving around Indiana, a childhood he called "one unbroken stretch of privation and misery." He wrote the first great modern American novel, Sister Carrie (1900), and An American Tragedy.
Be well, do good work, and keep in touch.®

I'd be merely speculating if I said Beats Antique are the faces and the soundtrack to Burning Man, although a quick check shows the Bay Area collective has played the desert festival the past three years. The group's music brings an old-world, Middle Eastern influence to modern-day hiphop and electronic music. You'd think the music would be more interesting. It does serve a purpose for member Zoe Jakes' onstage belly dancing, and the awful dancing their mostly white audience undoubtedly takes part in at Beats Antique's performances. It's more about spectacle than anything else. And you know what you're getting into. Bring your art car/Zipcar and enjoy the ride. MARK LORE

All my flowers this week were taken at Meadowlark Gardens.
This story doesn't relate to my post but I was just listening to the news. There was a place somewhere in Maryland that was very overgrown and people thought the house was abandoned. I only came in at the end of the story but apparently a lady lived in the house who was a 103 years old. The story went on to say that when the local firefighters found out, 25 of them volunteered their time to clear her garden for her. I think this lady will be well taken care of from now on.
This very interesting cactus was taken near the visitor center's front door.

By-elections will be held at the end of June in four out of five vacant federal ridings but Prime Minister Stephen Harper has decided it is too soon to fill the seat left open as a result of the death of Jim Flaherty.
In a statement released Sunday morning, the Conservative government said votes would be held on June 30 in the Toronto ridings of Trinity-Spadina and Scarborough-Agincourt, and in the Alberta ridings of Fort McMurray-Athabasca and Macleod.
Three out of the four races will be fiercely contested and one of them – the fight for Trinity-Spadina in downtown Toronto – could be a nail-biter that weighs the popularity of Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau.
Mr. Harper opted not to call a vote in Whitby-Oshawa that was held by Mr. Flaherty, the former finance minister who died from a heart attack on April 10. Jason MacDonald, a spokesman for the Prime Minister, said in an e-mail Sunday: "Everyone, in all parties, was caught off guard by Minister Flaherty's sudden death. We expect that by-election will be called in the coming months."
Of the four by-elections that Mr. Harper called, the race in Macleod, left vacant last fall with the resignation of Conservative MP Ted Menzies, would seem least likely to produce surprises. The Conservatives say their candidate, John Barlow, will win and other parties acknowledge that is likely the case in the heavily Tory riding.
Fort McMurray-Athabasca was vacated when Conservative MP Brian Jean, who took more than 70 per cent of the vote in 2011, stepped down in January. Conservative candidate David Yurdiga has a significant edge. But Liberal challenger Kyle Harrietha is running a good campaign and the New Democrats say their candidate, Lori McDaniel, is also strong.
Even if Mr. Yurdiga won by a slim margin, it would suggest the party is losing ground. And a Conservative source said the Tories are "not taking anything for granted."
The two Toronto races are expected to be tighter than those in Alberta.
A Conservative source said the Ontario ridings are Mr. Trudeau's to lose. "We're not even expecting to hit 10 per cent in either of them," he said.
But Scarborough-Agincourt, which was previously held by Liberal veteran Jim Karygiannis, is not a sure thing for the Mr. Trudeau's party. It has more immigrants than any other riding in the country and a candidate of any stripe who has the ability to win over ethnic voters could make gains.
Trinity-Spadina, which became vacant when New Democrat Olivia Chow resigned to run for mayor of Toronto, is expected to be fought tooth-and-nail by the Liberals and the New Democrats.
Adam Vaughan, a popular city councillor, has quit his municipal seat to run for the Liberals. Mr. Vaughan was hand-picked to run by Mr. Trudeau, has name recognition and at least one poll has suggested he could defeat NDP candidate Joe Cressy, a social activist and long-time party worker.
But the riding has been NDP since Ms. Chow won it in 2006. And the New Democrats have been campaigning hard for months and are well organized while the Liberals may be in disarray after a nasty internal spat over nominations that preceded Mr. Vaughan's interest in the seat.
Liberals have fared well in the polls for more than a year. The question is whether the popularity of the Liberal Leader and his candidate can defeat the NDP ground game.
Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, who said Green candidates will be running in all ridings, said it's unfortunate that the Ontario by-elections overlap substantially with the provincial election. "The timing will not help voter turnout," said Ms. May.

Belting an ensemble is one of the hottest fashion trends this Spring. And apparently, with the designers ....anything goes! From a wide fabric belt to a shiny chain belt - - even multiple belts. Belt a long button up oxford, a cotton/knit tunic, a dress, layered t's, layered tanks...belt it up baby. Adding a bold or bright belt to your ensemble is a great way to give it a whole new look. And belting is not just for waif type bodies, it is a great look & compliments ALL shapes and sizes. That's the beauty of it.
I've always been fond of the belted look however I have a tendency to be conservative *shocker* and opt for a skinny belt with a medium starched white button down. This year, I've dug deep...deep into the back closet 1980's disco shiny type of belts. *scared yet?*
Types of belts to be seen in this spring:
Braided > made by braiding three or more strips of leather or fabric together.
Camp > made from individual links of leather.
Cincture or monks belt > sash style of twisted rayon, silk or rope belt with tassels or knots at the ends.
Cowboy > a tooled leather belt with large metal type of buckle.
D-Ring > an adjustable belt of leather or woven cloth fastened by pulling the end though two D-shaped metal rings.
Elastic > made from stretchable, elasticized material.
Concho > made from medallions of leather and metal.
Reversible > one color on one side and a different color on the other with a buckle that twists (great for traveling).
Sash > soft material that loops over and ties in a knot or bow rather than buckling.
Surcingle > woven in plain or striped fabric fastened with a metal buckle through which a harness leather tab is pulled.
Can you do it? Do you already? Are you feeling beltventurous?

FURTHER INFO: Respected music critic Adam Woods tells the stories behind the great tracks on Elvis Love Songs . . .
1. ItŌĆÖs Now Or Never
Based on the Italian operatic aria O Sole Mio, ItŌĆÖs Now Or Never was recorded with specially commissioned lyrics in April 1960. It was less than a month after Elvis returned to the U.S. from army service in Germany and this beautiful track was a gigantic hit in the UK, where it remained at No 1 for eight weeks.
2. Are You Lonesome Tonight?
Recorded the day after ItŌĆÖs Now Or Never, this gave The King another huge 1960 No 1 at home and abroad.
3. Heartbreak Hotel
ElvisŌĆÖs first U.S. No 1, this sultry, echoey lament shook the lives of English teenagers ŌĆō including John Lennon and Keith Richards ŌĆō when it came crackling out of their radio sets in 1956.
4. One Night
A hoarse, bawdy rock ŌĆÖnŌĆÖ roll number from 1958 that offered yet another angle on love, One Night was one of a string of hits that kept ElvisŌĆÖs profile high as he whiled away two years on a U.S. army base in Germany.
5. I Need Your Love Tonight
A brief heart-racing rocker laid down in June 1958 at his last recording session before the army called.
6. (Now And Then ThereŌĆÖs) A Fool Such As I
This was the B-side to I Need Your Love Tonight before emerging from its shadow and eclipsing it, hitting No 1 in the UK and No 2 in the U.S. in 1959.
7. As Long As I Have You
This lovely, simple piano ballad from the 23-year-old Elvis was written for the soundtrack to his fourth movie, 1958ŌĆÖs King Creole.
8. Any Way You Want Me
Raw, passionate and featuring the mighty vocal group the Jordanaires, Any Way You Want Me is a lesser-known Elvis love song from an auspicious session in June 1956. The other fruits of that dayŌĆÖs work in the studio were the Elvis classics DonŌĆÖt Be Cruel and Hound Dog.
9. Love Me
One of seven big American hits Elvis enjoyed in 1956.
10. Blue Moon
ElvisŌĆÖs version of this big favourite is ghostly and pared back, with none of the musical lushness usually associated with it. It is a fascinating leftover from ElvisŌĆÖs pre-fame sessions with producer Sam Phillips at Sun Studio in Memphis in 1954. Released two years later, it sounds like an experiment, but itŌĆÖs a thrilling one, featuring an uncharacteristic, lonesome falsetto from the young star-in-waiting.
11. True Love
Memorably delivered by Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly in High Society, True Love was only a year old when Elvis took a stab at it in 1957, backed by the Jordanaires and a lone guitar. Written by Cole Porter, it is reckoned by many to be the legendary composerŌĆÖs last truly great song.
12. Have I Told You Lately That I Love You
Not to be confused with the Van Morrison song of a similar name, Have I Told You Lately That I Love You had been a success for Bing Crosby, among others. It featured in ElvisŌĆÖs second film, Loving You, which gave the young sensation his first starring role.
13. I Love You Because
Opening with a whistling intro, which presumably was courtesy of the 19-year-old Elvis himself, this poised, jazz ballad was one of the singerŌĆÖs first recordings, made around the same time he recorded ThatŌĆÖs All Right, sometimes regarded as the first true
rock ŌĆÖnŌĆÖ roll record.
14. I DonŌĆÖt Care If The Sun DonŌĆÖt Shine
Another song from the 1954 Sun sessions, I DonŌĆÖt Care If The Sun DonŌĆÖt Shine is carried along by an exuberant rockabilly thwack and an irresistible lust for life.
15. IŌĆÖm Counting On You
Just turned 21 and newly signed by RCA Victor for $35,000, Elvis headed to Nashville in January 1956 to record his first album for the label. IŌĆÖm Counting On You was one of the first things he tried and shows the former hillbilly evolving into a far smoother, more romantic proposition than he had been just a few months earlier.

text: YULitle - I saw you recently posted a picture and brief recommendation about some Sears tools, and it made me think of something that would be extremely helpful to me (and probably to many others on this forum)... If you are so inclined, I would love to get your take on which tools you use - type, brand, model, and why you believe a particular tool is best. You know, kind of like a "YULitle's Guide To Stringing Tools". Thanks for all your great videos and informative posts. Much appreciated.

We wrap up our series with Wyoming Speaker of the House of Representatives Colin Simpson with a look at a failed bill that has attracted its fair share of controversy. Sheridan Media's Ron Richter has more.
House bill 113 was dubbed the concealed carry bill, and it would have allowed Wyoming residents to carry a concealed gun without a permit. While the bill passed in the House of Representatives, it ultimately died in the Senate. Speaker of the House Colin Simpson co-sponsored the bill, and he says that the Senate's decision to kill the legislation didn't come as a surprise to him.
Concealed carry permits require applicants to undergo a background check and pay a fee. Proponents of the bill feel these restrictions infringe on residents' Second Amendment rights. Opponents argued the bill was not in the public's best interest, saying there needed to be some restrictions for carrying a concealed handgun.

Removing meta entry separator from the bottom of a post
Hi guys,
I've been struggling to solve it for the better part of today and I think it's time for me to wave the white flag here. Maybe one of you would be able to help me out.
My page, using Prana Theme that I have customised a bit, is at http://www.dynamitri.pl
As you probably can see, I have moved the Comment section ('Komentarze' in Polish, my native language) to the bottom of the post. For some reason, however, I seem completely unable to get rid of the backslash '\' preceding it. I have even gone to the point of opening the utility.php file on my server, which WordPress itself has no access to to the best of my knowledge. There I've found some code, which I think is responsible for that part of the post I have problems with:
/** Prana Post Comments */ function prana_post_comments() { if ( ( ! comments_open() || post_password_required() ) ) { return; } ob_start(); comments_number( __( 'Leave a Comment', 'prana' ), __( '1 Comment', 'prana' ), __( '% Comments', 'prana' ) ); $comments = ob_get_clean(); /** Output */ $comments = sprintf( '%s', esc_url( get_comments_link() ), $comments ); $output = sprintf( '%2$s%1$s', $comments, prana_entry_meta_sep() ); return $output; }
I have attempted to get rid of
prana_entry_meta_sep();variable, but as soon as I do this, the whole site literally blows up right in my face giving syntax errors and becoming unusable.
Now, I want to keep the entry meta separators on top of the post, where the date and tags are located, but I want the comments link to be at the bottom of the post, and clear (i.e. not preceded by any mark whatsoever). Does anyone have any idea as to how to do this in this case, and remove the problematic backslash?
Many thanks. All suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
- The topic 'Removing meta entry separator from the bottom of a post' is closed to new replies.

Here's an interesting gadget!
I've seen those in the mall of america, think my mom or sister might have bought one....
They're great - my dad showed up with one at Christmas. Hours of entertainment, especially in looking at peoples' hair afterward...
I saw this yesterday in a shop but I had no idea how it was intended to be used. The best line in the ad is "Not only is our product entertaining, but it produces a euphoric feeling" - it doesn't sound like a massager!
It's also handy for mixing large quantities of pancake batter, and picking up bowling balls that are too hot to touch.
It looks like some experiment in phrenology gone horribly awry...
Sushi and Sake,
I got one of those, same concept, different name. The one I got is called orgasmatron. It uses a battery and runs electricity through your head, makes you feel tingly.
I see. Oh, is that the time? I've just remembered, I've gotta go.
Right-o, Joel!
.. Phil, looks like the sort of thing that could be painful if used innappropriately; follow instructions to avoid late-night trips to the ER and anaesthetic
I bought the "Head Wizard" version, the one with the vibrating motor. It makes you feel electrocuted inside. And, believe me, it's fun to be electrocuted. You are talking to the only person in the tri-state area watershed ever to be shocked by a cattle electric fence and survive! 30,000 volts!!!! !!!!!!! !!!!!!!!
Most sincerly,
NOTE: Tonmo.com does not endorse recreational electrocutions.
Please tell me you weren't hurdling the fence.
...but our search for the right sponsor is ongoing.
240 volts is far less than 30000 but it still hurts . Just my experience. :P
this may just be ignorance speaking, but i was under the impression that the amps not volts were what mattered in the way of danger.... of course multiple electrocutions never hurt anyone....
Eh, I don't know what voltage it had, but it was for cattle, and I touched it to see what it felt like, and I'm an idiot. But I do have an Octomasse!
Step away from the Taser! Those things are usually 7,000 volts, ouch! Oswald, very few octopuses could withstand that. I hope the Octomasse is more pleasant.
Separate names with a comma.


text: There's a problem with the Haskell Platform website. I'm posting the message here because I gave up looking for contact information for the site, maybe someone here can forward the message or tell me who to forward it to? The specific page is http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/mac.html Being one of the few who still use the PPC architecture, I expect to have to build my own packages from source. Imagine my surprise when the Haskell platform uses the "Universal Binary" logo on the Mac download. Nowhere on the Mac download page does it specify an architecture. However, the binary is i386 only and not PPC. So I just wasted time downloading something I can't install on my computer. This page shows the "Universal Binary" logo: http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/ Here is Apple's "Universal Binary" page, which describes what the logo means: http://www.apple.com/universal/ It would be nice to get rid of the "Universal Binary" logo and to mark the packages as i386. --Dietrich Epp

Most authors outsource the reading of their work; not so John le Carré, even at the age of 81. His 23rd novel, A Delicate Truth (Penguin, 10hr 48min, CD £19.99), is thrilling, not only for its post-Iraq inquest into the privatisation of war, but because he tells it himself and with such conviction. The opening scene, a bungled counter-terrorist operation in Gibraltar, gives a taster of the arch ventriloquist.
Amid the babel of voices is a stodgy South African mercenary, a lilting Welsh commander, and a Foreign Office mandarin with a patrician drawl to outfox Edward Fox.
Down the phone at the Ministry of Defence struts a New Labour ranter. He is one of le Carré's targets in a hard-hitting novel that lines up shady defence contractors, "armies of accountants and lawyers on the make" and, in a bucolic interlude in Cornwall, denizens of an ersatz merrie England. Deceit and corruption, long le Carré's themes, have found their niche in the here and now.
A recent survey found that the books of Roald Dahl, who died in 1990, are no longer children's favourites. Time then for Penguin to update the audio catalogue. Out go old stagers Simon Callow, Miriam Margolyes and Geoffrey Palmer; in come, among others, David Walliams (The BFG, Puffin CD, 4hr 25min, £12.99), Kate Winslet (Matilda, 4hr 18min, £12.99) and Douglas Hodge (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, 3hr 18min, £12.99). Sound effects dress up these recordings, in case it is beyond a child's imagining to conjure a waterfall, say. But Dahl's original creative flow is there. The voice of Julian Rhind-Tutt, reading James and the Giant Peach (3hr 18min, £12.99) comes closest to the author's discomfiting tones.
Dahl mostly confined monstrous adults to fiction. The horrid reality of a no-good father is the "dark shadow" in Alan Johnson's This Boy: a Memoir of A Childhood (Random House, 7hr 52min, download £13.49). The former Labour Home Secretary calls him Steve, not Dad, and feels no regret when Steve abandons him to be brought up in a slum by his stoical single mother, a charlady, and sister. The poverty of North Kensington in the Fifties is as Victorian as the stucco – they trundled a pram around the posh houses of Holland Park, picking up coal dropped in the gutter – but equally chastening is the mood of violence on the streets. "Never hit a boy with glasses," seems to have been the only stricture. Johnson reads his fascinating account as it is written: straightforwardly and without sentiment in the voice of a proud Londoner.
NoViolet Bulawayo's first novel, We Need New Names (Random House, 8hr 58min, download £14.99), bundles up the sad travails of her native Zimbabwe in episodes from the life of 10-year-old Darling. Her accent is thick, and her speech dances with poetic rhythms. Once she emigrates to the US, however, there is a gradual thinning. Although she is easier to understand, the language is coarser, her observations closer to cliché. The perfumed guavas she craves are behind her; the future is Capri-Sun in Kalamazoo. Robin Miles, the reader, subtly interprets the process of assimilation but her virtuosity cannot mask the story's diminishing élan.

Compounding agent spill closes Hannaford pharmacy, store
Belfast — A spill in the Hannaford pharmacy closed the store the morning of Friday, Oct. 11, as officials completed clean up efforts.
Mike Norton, spokesman for Hannaford, said the spill involved a compounding agent that is used in making ointments. Norton said the spill occurred at 3:45 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 10, as employees in the pharmacy were taking inventory.
As a precaution, the three employees in the pharmacy at the time of the spill were taken to Waldo County General Hospital to be evaluated. Norton said all three employees were later released after being evaluated.
The employees in the pharmacy were evaluated as a precaution because of how close they were to the source of the spilled compound agent, the vapors of which should not be breathed in, Norton said.
Norton said the pharmacy was closed Thursday, Oct. 10, after the spill occurred, but the rest of the store remained open. However, on Friday morning the decision was made to close the store to make sure clean up efforts were successful.
The store reopened at 11 a.m. on Friday, Norton said.
When asked if the corporate office would initiate any follow-up procedures in the wake of the spill, Norton said it was likely some action would be taken, but he did not know the extent of what would be done.
"This is just an unusual accident," Norton said.
The Belfast Fire Department and Ambulance, as well as local police, responded to Hannaford at the time of the spill. The Maine Department of Environmental Protection was also on scene Friday morning to determine that there were no health or safety issues that required further remediation, Norton said.
A message left for MDEP Director of Communications Jessamine Logan was not immediately returned.

House Appropriations defense topline: $512.5B - Obama warns on sexual assault - Forbes drops Green Fleet fight - Industry fights image as acquisitions bad guy - Support to revise war authorization
With Hadas Gold and Juana Summers
PRO SCOOP — HOUSE APPROPRIATIONS DEFENSE TOPLINE SET AT $512.5B: The House Appropriations Committee plans to set the topline number for its defense spending bill at $512.5 billion, according to a committee document obtained by Morning D ahead of its official release next week. The figure is more than $3 billion below the level requested for defense by President Barack Obama for fiscal 2014, according to an analysis provided by a congressional aide.
Story Continued Below
The committee plans to set funding for the war in Afghanistan and operations in Iraq during fiscal 2014 at $85.8 billion, according to the document, which lists allocations by subcommittee and is often called a "302(b)."
MEANWHILE … DoD TO REQUEST $80B IN OCO FUNDING, per Bloomberg's Tony Capaccio and Gopal Ratnam: "The Pentagon will request that Congress approve a budget for combat operations of about $79.5 billion, the least since 2005, as U.S. troops withdraw from Afghanistan, according to administration officials. The proposal for war operations, which aren't included in the main Pentagon budget, may be submitted as soon as tomorrow, said the officials." http://bloom.bg/12yCQSo
AND ... HASC PLANS TO IGNORE SEQUESTER DURING ITS NDAA MARKUP: The House Armed Services Committee will follow the Pentagon's lead in factoring out the potential effects of sequestration as it begins crafting the annual National Defense Authorization Act. The Republican-led committee will set base defense spending for fiscal 2014 at $526.6 billion — in line with the Pentagon's request and well above the levels mandated under the sequester, according to data provided to Morning D by the committee.
HASC is scheduled to begin its NDAA markup process next week, and its full-committee markup is set for June 5.

(ANOTHER!) SEXUAL ASSAULT RESPONSE OFFICER RELIEVED: Army officials announce that the manager of the sexual assault response program at Fort Campbell in Kentucky has been relieved of his post after he was arrested in a domestic dispute, according to The Associated Press. Lt. Col Darin Haas turned himself in on Wednesday on charges of stalking and violating an order of protection. http://politi.co/12yR0Ts
— OBAMA WARNS TOP BRASS: Warning that the issue of sexual violence is "dangerous to our national security," President Barack Obama huddled with top military leaders at the White House to push for solutions. Obama said all of the military leaders at the table had expressed to him "that they're ashamed by some of what's happened.
Joined by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey, Obama convened the meeting in the Cabinet Room just before 5 p.m. Vice President Joe Biden also attended, along with the Joint Chiefs, the service secretaries and others. POLITICO's Stephanie Gaskell has more. http://politi.co/12yRbhu
— GILLIBRAND ENLISTS VICTIMS IN BID TO PASS LEGISLATION: Victims of military sexual abuse sobbed quietly as lawmakers, led by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, held a news conference yesterday to advocate the passage of a bill that seeks to address the problem. The legislation would modify the UCMJ's Article 60, preventing commanding officers from having the ability to overturn jury verdicts under the military justice system. It would also shift the decision over whether or not to go to a court martial to independent prosecutors. We've got the report, for Pros: http://politico.pro/12en6C9
HAPPENING TODAY — HAGEL WELCOMES GUESTS TO THE PENTAGON: Hagel will host an honor cordon at the Pentagon in honor of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan at 9 a.m. Later in the day, Hagel will welcome French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian with another honor cordon.
Meanwhile, Deputy Defense Secretary Ash Carter is representing DoD at the President's Interagency Task Force to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons. The event is being held at the White House at 9:45 a.m. and will be streamed live here: www.whitehouse.gov/live

ON CAPITOL HILL … FORBES SAYS HE'S DROPPING GREEN FLEET FIGHT: Rep. Randy Forbes says he's abandoning his campaign to rein in the Navy's clean-energy initiatives. That's not to say he's had a change of heart on the issue — only that he's letting it go and moving on. "I don't have any intention right now of launching an effort to stop that," the Virginia Republican told POLITICO.
In a wide-ranging interview yesterday, Forbes said he has a new set of priorities now that he's chairman of the HASC's Subcommittee on Seapower and Projection Forces, which oversees Navy shipbuilding. During the last Congress, he chaired HASC's Readiness Subcommittee, which has jurisdiction over energy security and environmental issues. "I have enough on my plate right now with Seapower," Forbes said. Here's our full story, for Pros: http://politico.pro/16CWL6M
— But Forbes still considers the Navy's clean-energy initiatives a poor use of funds: In a follow-up statement after our story posted, a spokesman for Forbes insisted the congressman was "selectively quoted in a POLITICO article" and that he still thinks the Navy's Great Green Fleet is an "ill-conceived plan to waste millions of taxpayer dollars." Forbes remains "committed to prioritizing our national security over irresponsible and politicized energy policies," said spokesman Alex Gray.
WILSON VOWS NO TRICARE FEE HIKES: The chairman of HASC's Military Personnel Subcommittee says he won't include fee increases for the military's health care program in his authorization bill markup. "To me the fees should not be increased unless, indeed, there could be some justification, but there was no justification," Rep. Joe Wilson told POLTICO in a wide-ranging interview yesterday. "In the bill that I will be supporting at the markup next week, we will not increase fees."
The president's budget proposal for the new 2014 fiscal year does include increased Tricare fees. But lawmakers have been historically resistant to Pentagon efforts to such fee hikes to curtail growing health care costs that DoD leaders say threaten the department's fiscal health.
— INDUSTRY FIGHTS IMAGE AS ACQUISITIONS BAD GUY, by POLITICO's Leigh Munsil: "Often made out to be the 'bad guy' in the world of Pentagon acquisitions, some in the defense industry want to fight back against the impression that it's only out to make money off the Defense Department — and insist that it has as much incentive to reform the acquisitions process as Congress and DoD." http://politico.pro/105ui2c
— SUPPORT GROWS TO REVISE WAR AUTHORIZATION, by POLITICO's Philip Ewing: "Key congressional hawks and the Obama administration are resisting what appears to be growing support in Congress to at least revise the post-Sept. 11 authorization for use of military force." http://politico.pro/110PpBv
— OBAMA NOMINATES RUSSEL TO STATE: The president has nominated Daniel Russel to be assistant secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific affairs. If confirmed, he would replace Kurt Campbell, who resigned in February. Russel is currently senior director for Asian affairs on the National Security Council, where his replacement of Jeffrey Bader as senior director in 2011 turned some heads, since Russel is an expert on Japan, not China, as was the norm.
— PENTAGON'S FOX IS OUT: Christine Fox, the Pentagon's director of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation, will leave her post next month, Foreign Policy's E-Ring blog reports. Before she departs, though, she'll finish out her job running DoD's Strategic Choices and Management Review, which is due at the end of of the month. http://atfp.co/103TLck

Katie Glueck reports on Twitter's reaction: http://politi.co/10uzYG0
DESSERT II: NAVY SUSPENDS SPENDING ON 'PRESENTOS': The Navy announced yesterday that it had released new guidance suspending the use of funds on "presentation items," such as plaques, ball caps and coins.

Remote Control Pillow Is a Throw Pillow With Pocket For a Remote
Pillow With Remote Pocket: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?
The other day I showed you a few remote control solutions, and I spotted another one today that doubles as decor — the Remote Control Pillow.
It's a totally different twist on remote storage, and of course, you can only store one remote in its pocket (but maybe you've found your dream universal remote control).
Sadly this throw pillow is pricey — $116 — but that doesn't stop me from thinking that it's pretty sweet.
What do you think?
