I cleared all of my crap out of my room BY MYSELF (the new boy was with his parents unpacking his room, but he did offer to help, to which I politely turned him down and said I could handle it... ahh, independence). While I felt quite independent carrying all my boxes to my little car, my back was not thrilled with my feministic attitude, and has been bothering me ever since.
Today was the first day in a longgg time that I have sat down and done almost nothing (partially because of the HEINOUS and unrelenting rain that we've been experiencing here the past few days!). I went out to this fantastic cupcake place (I had a peanut butter and jelly cupcake! - yellow cake, with pb&j baked inside with peanut butter buttercream icing and jelly drizzled over the top....100000 calories, probably; delicious, absolutely) with the boy I went on that late-night-should-have-been-studying-date, because he only lives about a half hour from me back home! Yay :) More details on that to come - I don't want to rush anything/make a big deal too soon.
The beautiful Elizabeth (who happens to have fantastic hair and always looks airbrush perfect) of Unbeweavable tagged me in the "8 Things" post that seems to be going around. And now that I'm done with school, it seems like the PERFECT way to give my brain a bit of a rest and focus on some fun things!
I promise I'll have a real, real post soon and will bore you all to death with details of my life ;)
2. CHINA - I don't know if I even blogged about this to you guys yet, but on the 15th of March, I'm going to CHINA for 2 weeks! For the first week I'm going to be teaching conversational English at a university there (scattered with a day trip to the Great Wall one day!), and then after that first week, we head to Beijing for another week for sightseeing, shopping, and just touring around. Hello, can I possibly be more excited (especially because I am an Asian culture whore - I can't get enough of the art, food, family values, EVERYTHING!).
Lets just prayyy that this stupid pig flu won't keep the Chinese government from letting us all in = /
3. The new Kasabian album coming out in June. I know, I know, lameee. But seriously, any time that one of my favorite bands is coming out with a new album, I get reallyyy excited :) And I've heard their newest single from the album and it is greattttt.
4. Exploring NYC. New boy and I were talking about how it is so crazy that we live so freaking close to the city, and neither of us go in on a regular basis. So we vowed to explore the city as much as possible this summer, taking in new and unique sights, finding cute little hole in the wall restaurants and cafes, and just people watching for hours on end. Being in the city is such a rush for me - I love just taking it all in, and I'm glad that someone finallyyyy wants to go in with me :)
5. Getting back into the swing of running! Yessss for warm nights when I can run, run, run! I especially love when it's a hot/warm day and it rains lightly. That is my favoriteeee time to run. Ah, I'm excited just thinking about it!
6. Rainy summer days. They're my favorite time to relax. Usually I'm always going, always having somethinggg to do, or feel unproductive sitting around when it's so beautiful outside. Once it rains, and the day is a little bit gloomy, I love it. I officially have an excuse to wear leggings and my dad's old Harvard sweatshirt, and sit and watch endless hours of movies and television, usually consuming bowls upon bowls of some type of summer fruit (preferably pineapple).
7. MARGARITA NIGHTS! I will finally (legally) be able to partake in the age old tradition of heading to my mom's bff's gorgeous house on a lake, sitting around, drinking margs of all different flavors, and sleeping over there, which gives me an excuse to drink over my usual limit. Yessss.
8. Regular mani/pedis. My treat to myself. The place that is right down the street from me is ideal - I can walk there and reduce my carbon footprint, they know me by name, and Olivia (the owner) always makes sure that her best people are working to polish and buff my nails into perfection. And, best part - it's only $20 for the best mani/pedi around (seriously, I've checked most of the other places out - they cannotttt compare).
1. Packed everything, by myself, and loaded it into my car (in the rain!). This made me feel quite independent, and quite stupid after my back started killing me.
2. Drove home. Had a little babyyy accident involving some hydroplaning. I'm fine, few bumps, nothing big and my car has ZERO damage! What are the odds of that?! The man at the dealership said I'm veryyy lucky.
3. Met Bobby Flay with my dad. Haha, my dad told me he had a BIG surprise for me. We drove to Connecticut, stood on line for 2 hours and 45 minutes, and then got our picture taken and had two books autographed by Bobby Flay (who is one of my dad's favorite chefs...I swear, he has every episode of Throwdown with Bobby Flay on our DVR). While it wasn't exactlyyy what I thought the surprise would be, it was nice to be able to spend time with my dad.
4. Ate my fave grilled chicken sandwich from Wawa, which I bought before I left PA. Unfortunately, there is no Wawa at home. For those of you who don't know, Wawa is the most delicious convenience store ever. They make these amazinggg sandwiches for like super cheap. Every time I go in, I get the same thing - grilled chicken on a kaiser roll, lettuce, little bit of mayo, Ranch dressing and bacon. And it never ceases to disappoint. I swear, most of my money goes to a chicken sammich at Wawa :)
5. Watched movies (The Sandlot and The Goonies, aka the movies we grew up on) with my brother, who just got home yesterday as well!
6. Cuddled with Cooper. He has been glued to my side since I've been home.
7. Got my new Nikon D60! Yayyyy.
8. Slept! For a good twelve hours. Allllll right.
1. I wish I could not let the little things get to me, and focus more on big things.
2. I wish I could function on only two hours sleep a night, and not look like a zombie in the morning.
3. I wish I could speak another language fluently. I feel like that just puts you at such an advantage in life, especially if you can speak Spanish, which is so prevalent!
4. I wish I could live more green. Like, with solar panelling in my house, all high efficiency products... hopefully one day soon! :)
5. I wish that I could have told people that I lost without expecting it how I felt about them. I know that they knew I loved them, but if I could have just voiced that to them...I think I'd feel a lot better.
6. I wish that we lived in a world where everyone got along and just loved one another. Nobody hated anyone else because they were gay, straight, black, white, Latino, Asian, Indian, anything. People just coexisted peacefully, and there would be no need for war.
7. I wish that I hadn't been burned so bad in the past. I find it really hard now to trust people, and not to freak out over little things, or read too much into situations. It causes me to doubt myself, and I absolutely hate that.
8. I wish that my dog will live however long as I do, haha. I'm going to be a messsss when he dies.
2. Entourage
3. Top Chef
4. Planet Earth/The Blue Planet
5. Skins
6. CSI (Vegas onlyyy)
7. Law & Order SVU
8. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Ahh, what a fun post! Seriously, I would LOVE for as many of you to do this as possible - I'd LOVE to learn more about you all :)
I've missed you all terribly, can't wait to catch up on your wonderful blogs!

51 - 69 Final
Raivio, Heytvelt lead Gonzaga past Portland StateDec 1, 2006 - 3:47 AM SPOKANE, Washington (Ticker) -- Gonzaga's 3-point shooting made all the difference against Portland State.
Derek Raivio scored 20 points and Josh Heytvelt added 17 and 10 rebounds to lead the 21st-ranked Bulldogs to a convincing 69-51 victory over the Vikings.
Despite shooting just 42 percent (21-of-50) from the field, Gonzaga (7-1) was lights out from behind the arc, making 9-of-16 attempts. By comparison, Portland State (4-3) shot just 5-of-29 from 3-point range.
The Vikings played tough midway through the first half, but the Bulldogs pulled away late to take a 37-29 halftime lead.
"I thought Portland State did a nice job," Bulldogs coach Mark Few said. "They came out and played more agressive than us. They outplayed us on the defensive end, stretched us out and forced us to play man-on-man a bit. They basically outplayed us on the floor and they deserve a lot of credit."
Portland State closed to 55-48 on a 3-pointer by Dupree Lucas, but Gonzaga closed the contest on a 14-3 run to put the game out of reach.
"We got stops and were able to rebound the ball," Few said. "We got most of our opportunities off of the break, which is how we like to play, but they played the game off the glass and generated opportunities to get more offensive rebounds."
Lucas scored 13 points to lead the Vikings, who had four starters in double figures.
With the win the Bulldogs increased the nation's longest home winning streak to 44 games.
No one has shouted yet.
Be the first!
Be the first!

CES 2014: Firefox OS to Power Panasonic Smart TVs
Subject: General Tech, Shows and Expos | January 8, 2014 - 04:18 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Panasonic, mozilla, Firefox OS, CES 2014, CES
Firefox OS is a thin Linux layer which immediately loads Gecko, the rendering engine behind Firefox and other Mozilla products, to handle everything else. The entire OS interface is developed in HTML5, CSS, Javascript, and other web standards. It suffices to say that it can handle web apps very easily (it is one).
Panasonic and Mozilla have entered into a partnership, announced at CES, for future smart TVs to be powered by Firefox OS. This can be very useful for Panasonic. Provided they keep up with certifying new releases, performance should be about the only other barrier preventing their product from running the popular apps as they arise. It also lifts the burden away for developer support.
On the other hand, this could also be good for Firefox OS and the web itself. Mozilla is not a stupid organization and, while they certainly like their products adopted, I would not be surprised if they hope this effort brings content out to play. Netflix and other content providers who want to be on Panasonic's platform would need to support their flavor of Firefox OS. Netflix, in particular, has already made inroads with HTML5 albeit with certain encryption extensions.
Atwood's Law applies to televisions, too!

text: PARIS, July 28 (Reuters) - European stocks were set to rise on Monday, bouncing from the previous session's drop, with Ryanair in focus after the airline boosted its annual profit outlook. Europe's biggest budget airline lifted its annual profit outlook on Monday after posting a sharp rise in quarterly net income, coming in the wake of profit warnings by rivals Air France-KLM and Lufthansa. At 0636 GMT, futures for Euro STOXX 50, for UK's FTSE 100, for Germany's DAX and for France's CAC were up 0.4-0.5 percent. Lifting investors' mood on Monday, data showed a sharp rise in profits earned by Chinese industrial firms, up 17.9 percent in June from a year earlier, fuelling expectations that the China's economy is powering through its recent soft patch as the government uses targeted stimulus measures to support growth. The data boosted Asian stocks, with the MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan up 0.2 percent after touching a three-year high earlier. Spanish banks will be in focus after bailed-out lender Bankia said its first half net profit more than doubled from a year ago to 432 million euros ($580 million), beating forecasts as bad debts fell slightly and lending revenue rose.

DEUTSCHE BANK, HSBC Silver bullion banks Deutsche Bank, Bank of Nova Scotia and HSBC have been accused of manipulating prices in the multi-billion dollar market in a lawsuit filed on Friday. GLAXOSMITHKLINE GSK's chief executive has opened the possibility of the pharma group's being broken up in the future as he pushes through a sweeping overhaul of Britain's largest drugmaker, the Financial Times reported on Monday. ASTRAZENECA The pharma group has signed up Roche and Qiagen to develop two separate diagnostic tests, both using simple blood samples, to identify patients who will benefit from its lung cancer drugs. RECKITT BENCKISER GROUP The consumer goods company has decided to spin off its Suboxone pharmaceuticals business in the next 12 months, it said on Monday, ending months of speculation over the shrinking division's future. TNT EXPRESS The group reported a 5.9 percent drop in quarterly revenues. ENI, SAIPEM The new management of the Italian oil and gas group plans to press on with the sale of a controlling stake in oil services subsidiary Saipem so it can focus on the more lucrative business of finding oil and gas, sources said. UNICREDIT Italy's UniCredit is close to selling a new portion of its private equity holdings after a similar deal in 2013, a source close to the matter said on Sunday, as European banks shed non-core assets to strengthen their capital base. DANONE The French dairy group is in talks to sell its medical nutrition business to U.S. group Hospira HSP.N in a deal valuing the unit at about $5 billion, the Financial Times reported on Sunday, citing people familiar with the situation. CLUB MED The holiday group's board on Friday advised that a 790 million euro ($1.1 billion) takeover offer from top shareholder and Italian financier Andrea Bonomi was in shareholders' interest, but flagged risks for the company. BASF Essar is in talks with BASF for a $2 billion petrochemicals joint venture, India's Economic Times reported, citing people directly involved in the discussions. COMMERZBANK Germany's second-biggest bank is widening the scope of its savings programme to outsource parts of its finance department, which includes accounting, German daily newspaper Handelsblatt reported.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry acknowledged the third anniversary of the Great East Japan Earthquake by remembering Japan's courage through the devastation and recovery.
Kerry reflected on the impact of the 8.9 magnitude earthquake that shook Japan on March 11, 2011, and the "gut-wrenching" images of destroyed homes and whole cities. He also recalled the courage demonstrated by Japanese citizens and volunteers who responded to the natural disaster.
"Today, we remember the courage of the citizens of the Tohoku region and all of Japan. We remember the volunteers from nations around the world who dug deep and pitched in. And we remember the outpouring of emotion, from public condolences to those who shared their grief in private ways -- and still do."
The earthquake also triggered a meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.

Stricker opens with 1-over 71 in pivotal PGA Championship
With the 90th PGA Championship the last major event of the 2008 season and a prelude to the FedEx Cup playoffs, the four days at Oakland Hills have become make or break in many ways for Edgerton native Steve Stricker.
Stricker, 41, came into the 2008 season on a tremendous high, having broken through a year ago at the Barclays, the first FedEx Cup playoff event of the 2007 season. It was the first win for Stricker on the PGA Tour in six years and catapulted him squarely into the middle of the FedEx Cup mix, where he eventually finished second.
Stricker parlayed that finish into a spot on the U.S. President�s Cup team and finished the year fourth in the World Golf Rankings.
Less than a year later, Stricker is on the bubble�10th in the world and trying to hold on to his spot on the U.S. Ryder Cup team, something that was a foregone conclusion at the beginning of the year.
With eight places on the team to be determined by points after the PGA Championship, Stricker at No. 8 holds a slim lead over Woody Austin. Since the points are determined by money earned�and the majors are double-point affairs�a solid week by Austin could displace Stricker and leave him hoping for one of the four picks by Captain Paul Azinger.
�I�m really thinking about it, but I�m really fighting off thinking about it,� a conflicted Stricker said of trying to earn a spot on the Ryder Cup team. �I�m just trying to try to do the things that I�m supposed to do here and thinking about the task at hand right here.
�(If I) play well here, that will take care of itself,�� he said of the Ryder Cup. �But I am thinking about it.�
Starting in the morning wave here Thursday, Stricker did a good job of �taking care of it� with an opening-round 1-over-par 71 on a difficult layout that penalized inaccuracy off the tee and was a tough once the players reached the putting surface. So, after 18 holes, Stricker was three shots behind co-leaders Jeev Milkha Singh and Robert Karlsson.
�I played well,� Stricker said of his best opening round in a major this year. �I hit about 12 or 13 greens in regulation, which around here I thought was pretty good.
�I played pretty conservatively and played smart. When I did get in trouble, I tried to get it out in a position where I could try to get it up-and-down and I did that a couple of times.�
Stricker�s mood after the first round was contrary to Wednesday, when after nine holes in a practice round he retired to the driving range to work on takeaway and tempo�issues that had plagued him over the last 15 years.
�I hadn�t had very good practice rounds here leading up to it,� Stricker said of his preparation in the early week. �So I was kind of worried coming into today, but it firmed up a lot, so I was able to hit some 3-woods, and I drove it better.
�I like it. I like that it�s tough. I guess I enjoy playing those type of tournaments, when par�s a good score, because you can sit on a hole and just try to hit it in the fairway and then just look at the center of the green. And that�s what you have to do here.�
Now with a swing he can trust and in good position after the first round, Stricker carried momentum and confidence into today and likely into the weekend.
�I feel comfortable,� Stricker said of playing in majors. �I don�t get as uptight or nervous at majors as I once did.
�And, yeah, I guess I�m coping with the stress and the anxiety a little bit better than I was when I was younger and just playing in them. This is the fourth one this year, and I think you get kind of used to the fact that you�re playing in a major.�
And this one could have a major impact on Stricker�s season.

Music Works|Stage Works: Mentorship program for youth culminates in two performances
April 30, 2014, Guelph, ON – Guelph's talented youth perform two different shows in Co-operators Hall at River Run Centre on May 6 and 7 at 7 p.m. The shows are part of MusicWorks|StageWorks, a mentorship program presented by River Run Centre in partnership with Guelph Youth Council and sponsored by TD Canada Trust. Now in its second year, the program offers youth real-life experience in putting on a professional-style show, from concept development to performance. The two-evening performances showcase 25 acts, including singers, guitarist, pianists, various bands, and spoken word.
Members of River Run's technical and programming staff have been working with the participants in preparation for the shows. As part of the process, the performers learn the essential elements of producing a show, such as, staging, flow, timing, transitions and emceeing.
"The response to our open invitation for youth to participate in our mentorship program once again surpassed all expectation," says Danna Evans, Facility Manager of River Run Centre. "In total, over 70 youth are involved in this year's program."
"Members of the Guelph Youth Council were eager to participate in MusicWorks|StageWorks again this year. They have been actively involved in coordinating and promoting the program," says Jenn Bucci, Youth Program Coordinator for the City of Guelph.
Admission is free to each performance. Seating is general and on a first come basis.
Guelph Youth Council is a group of local volunteers (ages 13-19) that aims to preserve and enhance youth culture in the community. The group serves as liaison to City Council, offers leadership training, plans youth-based activities, and advocates on behalf of youth.

LISD Supt. Jack Clemmons is expected to attend the meeting to give an overview of a plan that proposes to close three elementary schools Parkway, Posey and Stubbs.
The plan includes converting Alderson into a campus for third- through sixth-grade, making Dunbar Junior High a seventh- and eighth-grade campus, and adding ninth-graders to Estacado High School.
Changing of elementary boundary lines in South Central Lubbock and near the Stubbs campus are also planned.
Hunt would become a kindergarten and transitional first-grade campus. A child care facility for school district employees is proposed to be housed at Hunt. Bozeman would house first- and second-graders.

Cape Town - A total of 161 000 people in the Mother City are employed in the informal sector, making up at least 11.3 percent of the total workforce of the city, a report commissioned by the City of Cape Town, released on Monday, has found.
According to the Economic Performance Indicators for Cape Town (EPIC) report, almost 40% of informal sector workers are employed in the wholesale and retail business sector.
The report says a significant proportion of workers are also engaged in manufacturing (10,2%), construction (13,1%), financial services (10,9%) and community services (16,9%).
The EPIC report for the second quarter of 2015 underscores the contribution of the informal sector to the economy and its importance as a source of employment in Cape Town.
The City's mayoral committee member for tourism, events and economic development, Councillor Garreth Bloor, said in a statement that they were currently conducting round-table discussions with informal traders to work with them in finding solutions to their areas of concern.
"We have taken cognisance of concerns raised by traders and are already working on solutions to facilitate a smooth entry into the informal economy," he said.
The EPIC report says if the informal sector was viewed as a conventional economic sector it would be the fifth largest employing sector in the city, just below manufacturing (11,96%) and above the construction sector (9,52%).

Manchester firm DWF is among four firms to be handed first-time spots on the legal panel of the North of England NHS Commercial Procurement Collaborative (NOE CPC).
Weightmans, Browne Jacobson, Capsticks Solicitors, DAC Beachcroft, DWF, Hempsons Solicitors, Hill Dickinson and Mills & Reeve have been appointed for an initial two-year period to advise a group of 40 member NHS trusts, most of which are based in the north of England.
DWF, which earlier this year rescued ailing firm Cobbetts after it went into administration, is among four firms to have won places despite not being on the last legal panel. The other three are Hill Dickinson, Mills & Reeve and Weightmans.
Eversheds and Ward Hadaway are understood to have been dropped from the roster, despite making it on to the NOE CPC's legal panel in the last round. A spokesperson said the group only appoints the eight highest scording bidders, with some of those landing a spot on the panel showing the "mostly economically advantageous tender".
All eight firms that have won spots will provide advice across areas including NHS governance and public law, health care law, mental health law, property law, corporate finance, employment, contract and commercial and PFI projects.
The work is expected to generate around £7m in legal service expenditure every year and contracts will end in March 2015.

The Free Dictionary defines chance as "1(a) the unknown and unpredictable element in happenings that seem to have no assignable cause; 1(b) a force assumed to cause events that cannot be foreseen or controlled, luck; (2) the likelihood of something happening, possibility or probability….; (4) a favorable set of circumstances, an opportunity…." These definitions suggest there is a mystical aspect to chance. Situations happen for which there is no logical explanation.
William Ernest Henley's 1875 poem "Invictus" concludes with these lines: "I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul." Does any individual have full control over his destiny? Outside forces, any one of which can alter the course of events, abound.
Auctioneers, collectors, dealers, show promoters and others actively involved in the antiques and collectibles trade can relate countless stories about their good luck, fortune or whatever term appears to apply. No matter how much they attribute the final outcome of the story to their trade prowess, skills and/or talents, the role of chance, fate and destiny lingers in the background.
While spiritual, I am not religious. I attribute no religious connotations or explanation to the many unexplainable situations I have experienced throughout my life. I give no credit to God, Buddha, Mohammed or any other religious deity.
I acknowledge the relationship between chance and mysticism. I have an academic, scientific mindset. I am more comfortable with indisputable proof than conjecture. Rather than speculate about cause and effect, I accept chance for what it is—chance and nothing more.
Author's Aside #1: I wish I was more familiar with probability theory, the branch of mathematics concerned with the analysis of random phenomena. Yet, what interest would a probability theorist have in explaining why a collector suddenly finds an object he/she has sought for decades during a last minute, let's-stop-here visit to an antiques flea market, mall, shop or show or why an object brings 10 times its estimate at an auction as a result of heated bidding by two individuals with whom the auctioneer never had any previous contact?
The balance of this column is devoted to stories about my personal experiences in my antiques and collectibles career. The stories are meant to stimulate my readers' thinking about how chance played a role in their involvement in the trade. It ends with a request to share the resulting stories with me.
My stories cover two subjects—an opportunity and a group of objects. I avoided stories about occurrences that resulted because of deliberate groundwork on my part. In these instances, I was the master of my fate. In the stories that follow, I was not.
In the late 1990s, I worked with two production companies to develop pilots for television series. In "America Loves Antiques and Collectibles," I did two verbal appraisal segments and was the "Andy Rooney" closer. Although the pilot aired on 75 PBS stations, PBS said no to the concept. In late 2000, I was one of three hosts in a television pilot produced by a Florida-based production company. The production company took the pilot to an industry exposition and failed to sell the show.
In May 2001, Jason Sacca, a producer for "CBS Sunday Morning," contacted me about appearing in a segment about why people collect. Sacca, reporter Rita Barber and a film crew came to my home/office at the former Vera Cruz (Pa.) elementary school and spent several hours taping a conversation with me.
Author's Aside #2: There was no chance involved in this appearance. Previously, I had appeared a as a guest on more than 100 television shows, including "Oprah" and "Martha Stewart Living."
Chance became involved in the events that followed. The segment in which I appeared was to air on Sunday, June 10, 2001. It did not. It was pre-empted by a story about the execution of Timothy McVeigh, the Oklahoma City bomber. Although Sacca told me the collecting segment would air the following week, I did not believe him. Shows are planned months ahead. Unused segments usually wind up in the trash.
The show did air on June 17. I did not bother to watch. Richard (Rick) Green, who lived in Sun City, Ca., did. While brushing his teeth in his bathroom, he had his television tuned to "CBS Sunday Morning." When he heard the segment on collecting, he left his bathroom to watch. Rick had an idea for an antiques and collectibles television show that needed a host. On Monday morning, June 18, I received an e-mail from Rick indicating that he was aware I had no idea who he was, had an idea for a television show, and thought I was just the type of host the show needed. I sent him tapes. Rick pitched the idea to 44 Blue, a Studio City-based production company, who pitched it to Home & Garden Television. The first episode of "Collector Inspector" aired in October 2002, a few days after my 61st birthday.
During the taping of the first season, I asked Rick if he had watched "CBS Sunday Morning" on June 10. He told me he had not. He was out of town. What is the probability that I would owe my television career to Timothy McVeigh? It was pure chance.
In 1990, the Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage decided to do a special exhibit entitled "Hoppy, Gene and the Lone Ranger." I agreed to loan several dozen objects from my Hopalong Cassidy collection for the exhibit, which also traveled to the National Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City.
Several months prior to the opening of the exhibit, I appeared on Ken and Daria Dolan's "Smart Money" on FNN (Financial News Network). As our interview ended, Ken asked, "If you could have any antique or collectible that you do not own, what would you want?" Without hesitation, I answered, "the complete Hopalong Cassidy 10-piece children's bedroom suite."
Less than a week later, I received a call from an individual living in Dotham, Ala., who had watched "Smart Money" when I made my request. He owned the Hopalong Cassidy 10-piece bedroom suite and would consider selling it if we could agree on a price. However, he did first have to check with his two sons for whom the Hoppy bedroom suite was purchased to see if either wished to keep it. Days lingered into weeks. Finally, we struck a deal.
Now that I owned the Hoppy bedroom suite, I had to figure out how to get it from Dotham to Pennsylvania. I took a chance and called the planners of the "Hoppy, Gene, and the Lone Ranger" exhibit. "How would you like to include a 10-piece Hopalong Cassidy bedroom suite in the exhibit?" The planners immediately said yes. "It is in Dotham, Alabama. You will have to move it to Los Angeles. When the exhibit is over, you can ship it back to me in Vera Cruz."
There was no way I could have predicted or planned this. The circumstances were pure chance. Yet, I admit without doubt or hesitation that I know this was inevitably meant to happen.
These are just two of my "chance" stories. There are many others, like the time I visited an out-of-the way antiques shop and found a Fraktur containing the name of my great, great grandmother or the time I just happened down a country road and found a nest of Fire King Polka Dot bowls waiting alongside the road for trash pickup.
I do not consider myself lucky. I learned not to gamble when a Boy Scout Scoutmaster won 27-cents from me at a poker game at a campout. It was a time when candy bars were a nickel. I have never bought a lottery ticket nor placed a coin in a casino slot machine.
When I spend my money, I want something tangible in return. This is one reason why I collect. I am the master of my fate—good, bad or indifferent. Yet, there are moments when I wonder. When I think about them, the memories are positive. Chance has been good to me. I hope it has been for you as well.

Vitamins Reduce the Benefits of Your Workout
Free radicals create oxidative stress on a cellular level and have long been considered a major culprit of the aging process. Since antioxidants clean up those free roaming bits of "reactive oxygen compounds," one would think vitamins loaded with free radicals would help folks live longer. However, last Spring, researchers found that taking high doses of vitamins may decrease life span rather than lengthen it.
Now a new study has found that taking moderate doses of vitamins E and C interferes with the benefits of exercise, specifically the increase of metabolism and diabetes prevention through insulin sensitivity.
It seems the antioxidants found in vitamins C and E are too efficient at mopping up free radicals, and our muscles need a little bit of cellular damage caused by oxidative stress to jump-start their natural defense systems. Researchers wholeheartedly believe more research should be done in this area, and that we should not worry about getting too much of these vitamins in our diet naturally; it is supplements that should possibly be avoided.

This tea came from Roswell Strange. I always jump on any chance I get to try French teas, since they tend to be a pain in the ass to get here in the US. So anytime I'm browsing someone's cupboard for swap requests, these always jump out at me. I've definitely had good experiences with French flavored/scented teas so far! This one smells like black walnuts, hah! So clearly there's something that contaminated the teas around it, maybe the Candied Almond tea? Not sure, but I don't really care as long as it doesn't carry over to the taste. :P I brewed this one with a very level teaspoon because I wanted to get two servings out of the little baggie, but I also did a tad bit less water than I normally use.
The brewed aroma is very mild – it mostly smells like a mellow black tea with caramel elements and maybe the tiniest hint of spice. I do get a little bit of a licorice smell for some reason, although I don't think there's licorice flavor in here. I added a scant teaspoon of sugar. Hmm… this is a very subtly flavored tea. I think I taste the black tea base before anything else. There's some caramel sweetness swirling around, and I definitely get a touch of sweet orange and lemon (more of a candy lemon than a fresh one). The cinnamon manifests as a lovely warming sensation, and I'm tasting something that reminds me of anise or licorice, although it's extremely mild. The apple comes in at the very end of the sip and combines with the caramel for a lovely aftertaste.
Overall, I think this is the most subtly flavored French tea I've had yet, and even though there are several flavors involved, they do merge and play beautifully together. Very nicely done, Dammann Freres!
Aww… I am getting a little bit of a black walnut flavor as it cools… Sad day. I'll be sure to drink the other half of my sample while it's still hot!
Flavors: Anise, Apple, Caramel, Lemon, Licorice, Orange, Sweet

The Maytag Drying Cabinet is the perfect answer for clothes that are not suited for tumble drying (23/10/2009)
Maytags Drying Cabinet is a highly functional and versatile appliance, which can handle a raft of domestic drying requirements.
The Maytag Drying Cabinet is the perfect answer for all those special clothes and items that might not fit the bill for tumble drying. The cabinet can accommodate anything from silk shirts, delicate blouses, precious woollens and all those awkward garments that cannot be tumble dried (trainers, shoes, Wellington boots even!).
The additional beauty of this appliance is that it can be used to create a customised laundry room when teamed with Maytags premium washing machines, tumble dryers and its range of Hidden Helpers including ironing boards, storage cabinets and stacking kits.
The spacious Drying Cabinet, styled in fashionable stainless steel, can dry wet outdoor clothes such as hats, coats, gloves, trainers and even umbrellas and boots. Equipped with racks, prongs and hanger attachments, there is room for a great many items. It provides the equivalent of over 16m of clothes line, and the specially designed drying features on the inside of the door allow the drying of gloves, socks, ties and scarves. An optional extra is a convenient shoe rack, ideal for when during shoes, trainers and boots, but also a great place to store them ready for use.
The constant flow of gently heated air means that drying is very effective. Simple to use rotary controls offer the easy selection of three possible temperatures and a drying time of up to four hours.
Mike Martin, Maytags Head of Product, explains: The Drying Cabinet is built robustly to accommodate any task. It complements a tumble dryer perfectly and also has so much more to offer too! It has genuine multi-functional use.
The Drying Cabinet is equally versatile as a stand-alone appliance in its own right or as an essential companion in a total laundry room unit. These products are very much the vogue in large homes throughout the United States, and we believe that their many advantages will see them becoming a popular trend in the UK market too.

Video footage of SACRED REICH's May 29 performance at the Whisky A Go Go in West Hollywood, California can be seen below.SACRED REICH bassist/vocalist Phil Rind posted a message on the band's Facebook page last October letting fans know that they should not expect a new studio album from the group. "I can confidently say we have no plans to record, no songs to record and no idea what SACRED REICH even would sound like [right now]," he wrote. "We appreciate the fact that any of you even care about hearing a new record. "We thank each and every one of you for supporting and continuing to support the band. We think it's amazing that after 25 years, and 16 years since a new record anyone still remembers who we are. So we thank you. "Enjoy the old records. That's what we can offer you. If we ever change our minds, you will be the first to know." SACRED REICH's "Live At Wacken" DVD+CD package was released in North America in November 2012 through Metal Blade. The set contains professionally filmed and recorded footage of the band's August 4, 2007 performance at the Wacken Open Air festival in Wacken, Germany in front of 60,000 heavy metal fans. In an interview with MetalRecusants.com, Rind was asked why the band hasn't made a new studio album after reuniting for sporadic live shows eight years ago. "Our lives are different now," he said. "I mean, it's funny… Our old drummer Dave's [McClain] in MACHINE HEAD and they're touring and doing great; they're very successful. And I said [to the other guys in SACRED REICH recently], I wouldn't even wanna [get back into a full recording and touring cycle]. I wouldn't wanna be gone from my family. I have four kids. As much as I like this, as much as I appreciate the fans, what's important — the family or playing live music? I mean, really?! What's important — being a dad to my kids? My kids need their dad more than the fans need a new SACRED REICH record. And that's really the bottom line. It's a choice. We have a choice to make. What do you wanna do? You have kids now. What are you gonna do — blow it off or are you gonna be their dad? The world will be a better place if I'm [my kids'] dad." The remastered edition of SACRED REICH's classic 1992 album "Independent" was released as a digipack and jewelbox on March 15, 2010 via Displeased Records. The first 2,500 copies contain a free SACRED REICH patch. Displeased Records' reissue of SACRED REICH's classic album "The American Way" came out in February 2009. With upgraded layout, to-the-point remastering plus unreleased pre-production demo bonus tracks and a video clip, this new and improved CD reissue is an essential addition to every thrash metal collection. "The American Way" was made available in a limited digipak version and standard jewel case version. The first 2,500 copies came with a free logo patch.

Our Florida hard shell blue crabs are served Maryland or Chesapeake Bay style. This means they are steamed until they are bright red with a wonderful blend of spices which include celery, salt, pepper, dry mustard, pimiento, cloves, laurel leaves, mace, cardamom, ginger, cassia, and paprika sprinkled over each layer of crab.
When you order hard shelled blue crabs, it means you get the whole, steamed crab, which can be a potentially dangerous food item that must be approached with skill and care. There is a science to eating them. The necessary tools are a pair of hands and a wooden mallet. Simply follow the steps below.
1. With the crab upside down, grasp the legs on side firmly with one hand, and with the other hand lift the flap (apron), pull back and down to remove the top shell.
2. Turn the crab right side up, remove the gills and wash out the intestines and spongy material.
3. With a twisting motion, pull the legs loose from the body. Remove any meat, which adheres to the legs. Break off the claws.
4. Slice off the top of the inner skeleton and remove all exposed meat on this side.
5. At the back of the crab on each side lies a large lump of meat. With a very careful U-shaped motion of the knife, remove this back fin lump.
6. Remove the white flake meat from the other pockets with the point of the knife.
7. Crack the claw shell and remove the shell along with the moveable pincer. This will expose the claw meat and, if meat is left attached to the remaining pincer, will make a delicious "crab finger".
Hint: Both the yellow fat found inside blue crabs and the orange eggs found inside females are delicious and should not be ignored. Try it, you'll like it! Scoop the fat out with your fingers, or be more sophisticated and use a knife to spread it on a cracker.

(been married 22 years now) Went through 2 years of therapy with a renowned couples counselor. A year and a half after his affair, after he still wouldn't come clean, I had an affair of my own, and with a guy who was cheating on someone else. I was actually seduced by a counselor I had gone to for help. I felt I was staying in the marriage because I wanted him to live and not commit suicide. He told me he felt no jealousy over my affair. I was ready to leave him for the other guy and the other guy stayed with his LTR instead. So I find myself in this marriage. We love each other dearly, but there is no sex anymore. It feels like some kind of comfortable, loving, friendly limbo that will collapse the second either one of us has our libido re-ignited by someone other than ourselves. We don't have any reason to stay together...no children, not for money. But we remain in this relationship anyway. I miss sex, but we are both older. I keep wanting to find a sexual partner outside our marriage, but keep stopping myself because it all seems so hopeless. In conclusion: I got to see what it was like from the perspective of a faithful, trusting, innocent spouse, and from the perspective of the conniving, selfish OW. I am just dazed now, and think that most of us are at the core innocent and just seeking the will to live a life of passion. Though the marriage I am in sounds pretty awful (sexless) there has been an awakening of the preciousness of the fragile nature of life and each other. We appreciate the things that we bring to each other verbally and emotionally on a daily basis, even if it isn't sex. I tell him how I feel, about my urges to cheat in order to have a sex life again, and he understands. There is even a chance he is cheating now, though it doesn't seem likely based on basic knowledge of him and his movements, etc. , but I never feel sure. I know that I have never betrayed my own ideal of being honest and open about what I am thinking and feeling with him and others. Many of you may feel that I am evil for having my own affair with someone with another LTR, and you may be right. I only feel human. I do have a less judgmental attitude about others faults. But I still feel the same burn when I think about the betrayal. It still hurts my gut. Because of this, I do a lot of pretending, by not letting on that it still makes me want a divorce. I don't bring it up much, and never with anger at all, just curiosity every once in awhile. I am just a human among the walking wounded.

It wasn't easy but worth it. If he's thinking of leaving for OW pack his bags and make him leave. It's one thing to sneak around and have no responsibilities with OW it's quite another to have to support her and pay child support and spousal support. The sooner you can pop the affair illusion bubble the sooner he will look at his OW and realize she is not worth it. Men always cheat down because a good woman never goes that route. There was a time your husband chose to marry YOU. If you're 50 pounds heavier than when you got married then you have some work to do. The hardest working people at the gym are divorcees. Get moving. Even just seeing you go on walks and put on makeup will make him remember how he felt about you. Be nice but know you're worth!! I can't stress that enough. Don't beg him to stay. You dont want him to stay out of pity. The only thing the OW does that you don't is flatter your husband and put him on a pedestal. Put yourself on a pedestal higher so he has to reach to attain you. The OW is cheap and easy. When your husband sees you make sure he sees the woman he married, not a crying wreck. Know your worth. A wife is ALWAYS more valuable than an OW. They're just an easy drive th r ough.

He seams diffrent somehow as tho. He never thought it would hurt me so deeply or take everything So literal. Like how i view myself. After three kids im not such a skinny redhead any more but i am now more impowered. I tell him things without fear. Fix myself up and go out.

What ticks me off is that he lies, and OW desperately wants to believe everything that he says. What kind of man leaves his kids with a woman that he claims is abusive? Wouldn't he want to stick around to make certain that the kids aren't abused? The cheating is bad enough, but lying about someone's character to get sex on the side is worse.

I too used to hate and blame the OW until I read a book called "The Other Woman-Her Point of View". I read it because I needed to make sense of something I had trouble making sense of. I was reading everything I could find about affairs. The book opened my eyes to other possibilities and helped me to understand many things I didn't.
You really have a great and intelligent outlook on the painful feelings of betrayal you experienced. I hope you all the happiness in life that you deserve.

It sounds as if you're in a lot of pain...and still believing that his affair was about your shortcomings. It wasn't. It was about HIS shortcomings. If he meant the vow he gave you when you married, then he agreed to "in good and bad". That doesn't mean leaving someone when they have health issues. It doesn't mean going on Facebook and trolling for someone desperate to get out of her own situation.
You will never believe his words that you're what he wants until you believe it about yourself. Until you can treat yourself with respect and love, you'll have trouble allowing others to treat you with respect and love.
You're using his affair to confirm everything you believe about yourself. The way you talk about yourself is so incredibly unkind. Language is incredibly powerful. You call yourself a "skinny redheaded midget". How about a fiery-haired petite powerhouse? Or a slim ginger?
I hope you'll seek individual counselling for your own pain and healing. I'm so sorry for what you're going through.

Nothing would happen because she was family oriented. He now sees how she manipulated him, pressuring him to turn their relationship sexual. He says (& I believe him) that he told her that she would then pressure him to leave me & our kids (which she did). She even wanted him to pick up & move to another state w her! He says he told her from the beginning he wouldn't, but like most of us, she heard what she wanted.

Nowadays when I want to do something I will sometimes tell my husband, I'm going to do what I want now after all you did. At which point he asks is that how u see this. Meaning that this whole thing is in no way what he wanted. He said he actually feels that he was manipulated. Any woman would have told him beforehand that no woman offers no strings attached sex-- of course she wanted my life, but thinking with his penis he couldn't see it (or chose not to).

Toon keen on Brazilian
Newcastle have made a move to land Brazilian free agent Ewerthon, skysports.com can confirm.
By Graeme Bailey - Follow me on Twitter @graemebailey
Last Updated: 06/02/11 11:11am
Newcastle have made a move to land Brazilian free agent Ewerthon, skysports.com can confirm.
The 29-year-old left Palmeiras by mutual consent early in January and now a host of clubs in Europe are chasing his signature.
Top-flight clubs cannot sign players at the moment unless they are emergency loans or free transfers, so Ewerthon is now attracting a great deal of interest.
The former Borussia Dortmund and Real Zaragoza star has offers to return to Germany and Spain, but he is understood to be keen on testing himself in England.
West Brom were understood to be leading the chase in the Premier League, with up to half-a-dozen clubs now thought to be keen.
But now Newcastle, who failed to sign a replacement for Andy Carroll on transfer deadline day after he joined Liverpool, are stepping up their interest.
Toon chief Alan Pardew is keen to bolster his striking options with Shola Ameobi also facing up to six months on the sidelines, and signing a player of Ewerthon's calibre on a free transfer is an obvious attraction.
The player's agent Barry McIntosh admitted talks with a number of clubs were ongoing.
"A number of clubs like Ewerthon, he is a free agent and is looking to seal his next move," McIntosh told skysports.com.
"It is no secret that a number of Premier League clubs are keen on him.
"I am not going to go into details about who we are talking with, but if you're asking me about whether he would move to Newcastle? Then yes, obviously they are a calibre of club he would very much consider playing for."

Although the quests have been active in-game for players to conquer, it wasn't until just a few days ago that plots to build on were available for purchase. After many hours of non-stop labor, quite a few determined guilds within the lands of Telon became proud owners of a grand Guild Hall! It was my pleasure to visit a few of these distinguished dwellings, and be given a guided tour through what is now home to many dedicated guild members.

Sedan versus Hatchback. It's the age old debate, sparked mostly by every product planner and PR guru in the auto industry. Despite what the big wig pencil pushers tell you, deciding what car is right for you should come down to lifestyle, budget, features and efficiency. If you're in the market for a new car but are at a crossroads, these benefits of hatchback and sedan might just be that extra push in the right direction. HATCHBACK Due to the decline in the economy, there is a movement towards smaller, compact and cheaper cars. People are looking to save money where they can as the financial pinch becomes tighter. This is where hatchbacks come in.
Lower in price
Hatchbacks are ideal for sole income earners due to their relatively low price. The reason for this is because their engine capacity, dimensions and components are smaller which enables the manufacturers to offer them at a comparatively small amount. For example, Ford's small car range starts at a low $16,000.
Cheaper maintenance costs
While no one looks forward to spending hard earned cash on a car service, hatchbacks offer an abundance of maintenance saving opportunities. Due to the simplicity of how the car is built, a smaller car means less time in the garage and hardly any fussing around for you. It's fairly unlikely that you'll be spending over $1,000 on a set of new tyres and any parts that need to be repaired will be significantly cheaper.
Handy in urban areas
Besides tackling sand dunes, everything is easier in a small car. You can glide into practically into any parking space with ease which is handy if you live in a built up metropolitan area. Unlike a sedan or SUV, a small hatchback will easily fit into a narrow garage space allowing for additional storage in that area. SEDAN A sedan is generally defined as a vehicle with four doors that features a traditional trunk design. The extra junk in the trunk makes sedans an ideal car for large families who are looking to throw your children, your dog and luggage with extra room to spare. The practicality of the car and knowing that you can fit everything but the kitchen sink in it is why it is such a winner with families and those who regularly road trip.
Greater efficiency
Imagine packing your entire family into a hatchback; given the fact that a hatchback is usually smaller than a sedan, it would have to work much harder and use more fuel to chug along. A sedan is a reliable car that can handle any kind of weight you store in it resulting in a better fuel economy.
Better Handling
On the road, a midsized sedan handles better than a SUV or hatchback Due to the ideal weight distribution, a sedan has a very stable centre of gravity. This means that you can turn the car at ease without leaning too hard from one side to the other. It reduces the risk of flipping over in an accident which is increasingly common in large SUVs.
Room to grow
Most families today have four members or less. However, if you are looking to grow, sedans are the perfect compromise between space and expense. Unlike a hatchback, which is all about compactness, a sedan can easily fit extra car seats while allowing extra room for whatever else you may be storing in the back seat. Gym gear, groceries, an extra person? Take your pick, you can fit it in a sedan. What would you choose? Sedan or Hatchback? Tell us your answer in the comments below.

Charges have been filed against a man who escaped from the Ramsey County Workhouse on Sunday after he broke through a gate in the facility's outdoor recreation area.
The Ramsey County Attorney's Office has charged David Scott Nelson, 28, with "escape from custody," a felony with a maximum sentence of five years.
Monique Margaret Stein, 24, the woman who allegedly assisted with the escape, was also charged with the same offense.
Nelson allegedly fled the Ramsey County Workhouse on Sunday afternoon, and jumped into a car that Stein had driven to the facility.
Correctional officers saw Nelson escaping, and called police. The officers then noticed that the padlock on the recreation area's gate was missing.
A police officer located the vehicle traveling northbound on Hwy 61 near I-94. Nelson was driving the car, and increased his speed before stopping at a St. Paul house.
Nelson then fled on foot, while Stein, his passenger, remained in the vehicle. Police later found a bolt cutter in the car.
A K-9 tracked Nelson to a nearby house, where he was hiding in the basement. He was arrested and taken into custody.
Audio recordings later obtained from the Workhouse indicate that Nelson had called Stein on Sunday morning. He asked her, "Is everything set?" and "Do you know where to be?"
A few minutes before the escape, Nelson called Stein again and asked, "Are you there?"
Nelson has denied that Stein was involved in the escape. The criminal complaint said Nelson told police officers that Stein "had just been told to be there at a certain time, and she thought she was going to be given money."
Prior to his escape, Nelson had been held in custody for allegedly fleeing police in a motor vehicle. He was also awaiting sentencing for felony drug charges, and second-degree burglary.

Rockaway ferry to make final sail after October
The Rockaway ferry that residents had been fighting to keep will sail into the sunset when funding runs out after October, officials said Wednesday.
None of the ferry operators that submitted proposals to the city's Economic Development Corp. could run the boats at current ridership levels without extensive public money. The decision to end the service in the fall was first reported by DNAinfo.
"The responses ? confirmed the unsustainable cost of long-term service at current ridership levels," said Wiley Norvell, a spokesman for Mayor Bill de Blasio. "Barring an extraordinary increase in ridership that brings that cost down significantly, this is not a service we'll be able to continue past October."
The service, which carries about 800 riders daily, was started after Superstorm Sandy knocked out the A train.
Daniel Ruscillo, a co-chair of the local community board's transportation committee, railed against the failure to pick a winner.
"This is one of the gems we got because of what Sandy did and we want to keep it," Ruscillo said.
