The saying goes "a picture is worth a thousand words." In 2010, an Angels photo usually was worth one – "Ugh."
Whether it was a grimace after a strikeout, a pitcher with his head hanging just above the dirt or a star first baseman stunned that his season just ended after a walk-off grand slam, the year provided plenty of gut-wrenching moments.
But it wasn't all bad. There were star-making performances by guys like Jered Weaver, a big-time midseason trade, a successful All-Star Game and the debuts of some promising talent.

Nomar hits one back to Boston
Garciaparra connects vs. former club as A's back Braden
By Mychael Urban / MLB.com
Where better, then, for longtime Red Sox star Nomar Garciaparra to hit his first home run with the A's?
Garciaparra, the American League Rookie of the Year for Boston in 1997 and a five-time All-Star with the team, made his first career game against the Red Sox a memorable one by ripping a solo homer in the fifth inning of Oakland's 8-2 victory in the opener of a three-game series.
Offering platitudes a-plenty, Garciaparra emphasized the importance of the win from team standpoint. Sample: "I'm just happy we won; we did a lot of good things out there."
Only after being gently pressed on the personal side of his reunion with the Red Sox did the 15-year veteran offer insight into whatever emotions he might have been experiencing.
"It was strange stepping into the box and seeing [catcher Jason] Varitek back there," Garciaparra said with a smile. "I think the last time I did that was in an intrasquad game in college."
Garciaparra and Varitek were also teammates at Georgia Tech University.
"Yeah, it's been a while since I've been back behind him," Varitek said.
Garciaparra, who was traded from Boston to the Cubs during the 2004 season, was on the disabled list when Chicago faced the Red Sox during Interleague Play in 2005. He played for the Dodgers from 2006-2008, but Los Angeles didn't face Boston during that span.
The homer, a line drive over the wall in left field, gave the A's a 6-1 lead,
"I'm sure it was pretty cool for him," said Jack Cust, who also homered. "It was a big run in that situation."
A's manager Bob Geren, who said he didn't know that Garciaparra had never played against the Red Sox, went the team route as well when asked about the home run.
"I'm sure that's a personal thing," he said. "But that was a nice add-on run."
Garciaparra, who signed with Oakland as a free agent three weeks into Spring Training, was just one of several Athletics who enjoyed a big night at the plate.
The Red Sox opened the scoring when red-hot Kevin Youkilis led off the top of the second inning with a home run off lefty Dallas Braden, but the A's stormed back against lefty Jon Lester in their half of the frame, getting a leadoff homer of their own from Cust.
That started a five-run barrage that featured an RBI single from Orlando Cabrera, a two-run double by Jason Giambi and an RBI single from Matt Holliday -- all with two out. Cabrera, Giambi and Kurt Suzuki each had two of Oakland's 12 hits, and Holliday had three, including an RBI triple in the seventh.
Bobby Crosby's sacrifice fly capped the scoring in the eighth.
"Don't be overwhelmed by this," Braden said of the offensive output. "This is just the tip of the iceberg with these guys. ... It's gonna be fun to watch."
Braden gave up an RBI single to David Ortiz in the sixth but escaped further damage when, with one out and two runners on, he struck out Youkilis, who entered the game batting .522, with a changeup before retiring J.D. Drew on a fly ball to center field.
"Getting Youkilis out," Braden said, "was huge."
"He had a real good changeup," Varitek said. "He was 'strike one' quite a bit, and he was able to expand the zone with it."
Lifted after Jason Bay's leadoff single in the seventh, Braden allowed six hits, walked one and struck out three on 95 pitches over six-plus innings.
"Braden threw a lot of good offspeed pitches, spotted his fastball, threw his changeup when he needed to, kept us off-balance," offered Boston skipper Terry Francona. "He pitched a very good game."
And the A's, with a little help from Garciaparra, took advantage of it. A day after being stifled by Seattle southpaw Erik Bedard in a 3-0 loss, Oakland faced another power lefty but pounded out six runs on 10 hits in six innings against Lester.
"Stuff-wise, he's one of the best left-handers in the league," Geren said. "He just didn't have his usual location tonight."
Added Garciaparra: "The guys just need to keep swinging. We've been swinging the bat well, but balls haven't been falling. Tonight they did. It was good to see."

Phil Spector's attempt to overturn his murder conviction was rejected yesterday by a California appeals court, according to the AP.
The producer was convicted in April, 2009, of fatally shooting actress Lana Clarkson. Spector is currently serving a sentence of 19 years to life for second degree murder.
The appeals court dismissed the claim by Spector's defense attorney Dennis Riordan that the prosecution should not have been allowed to call female witnesses who alleged Spector had threatened them with guns. The court also rejected the assertion that Clarkson might have killed herself.
Riordan later said that he would seek a re-hearing before the court and that he was prepared to petition the California Supreme Court.

Photographer's Note
Not exactly what one might think of a New Year shot, but I thought of new beginnings and strength when I spotted this little branch against the large expanse of snow under which we find ourselves here.
Nothing more than a branch, alive, with tiny buds that will blossom into leaves in a few months.
Wishing you all a wonderful New Year of new openings and discoveries. Thanks to all of you for your ongoing kind comments while I have been absent from TE.
Will try to catch up.
Technical note: it is in colour, not bw...

Hi Sasa, Happy New Year! Very Picasso-like use of a few simple lines to express a lot. I particularly like the way the short blurred twig and the one to its right bend toward each other gracefully. Having just a touch of color is nice--some shots need desaturation to B/W to avoid distraction by colors, but this one is simple enough that it's unnecessary. Beautiful simplicity! Regards, Ken.

Dear Sasa,
What a delicate image. Minimalist in the form but full of beauty... The fragility overcome by the tenacity... The white space creates such a suggestive feeling of depth, the little branch penetrating into the future... Poetry in few traces... Lovely.
Wish you all the best for 2008!
xavis (3180) 2008-01-10 15:21

Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins suffered through a turbulent first season in the NBA, thanks in large part to his own immaturity and hotheadedness. Between the multiple ejections, getting kicked out of practice, and fighting with teammate Donte Green which resulted in Cousins being left behind in Sacramento while the rest of the team went on to Phoenix, it's easy to forget that the former Kentucky Wildcat had a decent year basketball wise, finishing with 14.1 PPG, 8.6 RPG, and being named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team.
But is Cousins really the childish badboy he comes off as, or is there something deeper to the big man? Could it be that he's just a gentle giant who gets swept up in the competition and gamesmanship of professional basketball? Or is he an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, shrouded in a Kings jersey?
If you ask the man himself, he'll just tell you he's one thing and one thing only—misunderstood.
And even if he won't say it, his new leg tattoo most definitely will.
It's hard to make out, but that is indeed the word "MISUNDERSTOOD" emblazoned on Cousins' leg over top a question mark. So does that mean he might be misunderstood, or that he is misunderstood but only he knows it and it's up to us to figure out if he is a misunderstood individual or just a man-child with anger issues. Either way, that giant question mark just adds to the mystery and mystique of DeMarcus' leg art.
I guess leg tattoos are the new hotness for ink this year. How does Cousins' tat measure up to the leg tattoos of Rex Ryan, Joey Bouchard, and the dudes who had Kobe and LeBron permanently etched on their lower limbs?

(Most of the sheriffs are) back for more in-justice
Reviewer's Bias*
The Story So Far...
Paramount has made "Reno 911!" releases an annual event, releasing the first season on DVD in June of 2004, and following it up each year since, along with a best-of DVD, which hit shelves in February of 2007. DVDTalk has reviews for all six releases to date.
The Show
The other new arrival is one who may sound familiar to longtime DVDTalk readers, as Joe La Truglio, yet another member of The State, portrays New York expat Francis "Frank" Rizzo. I like to think that the writers enjoyed my reviews of previous seasons of Reno 911! and named him in my honor, but it's not the rarest name in the world (having also been the name of my father, a famous mayor ofPhiladelphia and a character from The Jerky Boys.) Either way, just having another State alumni on board is reason enough to enjoy Rizzo's presence, as LoTruglio is simply fun to watch, but Rizzo isn't a bad character either, reintroducing an outsider's presence while also being mildly psychotic and probably a dirty cop.
The rest of the show is somewhat the same as it's ever been, which is just fine, because when it's on, it's fantastic, which is frequently the case in this collection. When the Pope's advance team visits Reno to see if he should make a stop there, thesheriffs ' attempts to dissuade them is hilarious, and a flashback storyline kicked-off by the need to transfer old evidence tapes to DVD is a great look at the origins of the characters. The stories have always been important to the show, as they help get an episode from Point A to Point B, but it's the ride-along bits that make the series, and though some old favorites remain in place, including the now traditional PSAs (now with green-screen,) old friend roller-skating hustler Terry (Nick Swardson,) former sex-slave-current-employee Cindy (Wanru Tseng) and the wacked-out mayor of Reno (George Lopez,) there are several great new bits (and an unusually frequent tinge of (hilarious) race-based comedy.)
A Spanish-language radio station that lets the sheriffs sit in for announcements is pretty funny (and has some incredible eye-candy in the form of busty Jessie Camacho), but the highlight has to be Carmen (the hilarious Sarah Tiana,) a nutbar woman who gets several visits from the authorities and who somehow gets funnier with every appearance, with one joke being so literate it's probably missed by 95% of the viewers. Perhaps its a coincidence that several of the great episodes feature some incredible guest stars, but they're still beyond enjoyable, like Rainn Wilson (The Office) as a serial killer leading the sheriffs on a wild goose chase, or Patton Oswalt turning himself in for extradition to Thailand (taking Junior (Ben Garant) and Jones (Cedric Yarbrough) along with him.) The show has always had great guests, but this season seems to be packed with them, including A.D. Miles, Jonah Hill, Jane Lynch, Carmen Electra, Craig Robinson and Mindy Sterling and cameos by Jay Johnston (Mr. Show) and Keith Powell (Toofer from 30 Rock.)
The only place the season really feels to be a bit of a let-down (aside from the lack of Clemmy) is in the two-parter when Dangle hosts a murder mystery dinner, a traditional problem for the show, as the longer episodes tend to get too bogged down in story over the rapid-fire jokes that work best. Though it does allow for yet another sketch legend to appear (this time Kids in the Hall star Scott Thompson), there's not enough laughs for one episode, no less two. Oddly, one of the other bits that falls flat not once, not twice, but three times, is a gag that guest stars an entire other troupe, Human Giant. The premise is solid, as they are con-artists trying to scam the sheriffs, but the bit goes on too long all three times, and ends up failing, which is surprising considering how funny the Human Giant guys are.
The DVDs
The Quality
The audio hasn't improved the way the image has, but the Dolby Digital 2.0 tracks are just as expected, with clear, distortion-free dialogue and strong music, offered up in a center-balanced stereo mix. The audio is uncensored on these discs, and the profanity is flying fast and furious, giving the episodes a much different feel than they had on TV.
The Extras
Aside from that, there's an extended version of one of the aforementioned Human Giant bits (which is less funny for its 13-minute length), two "Profiles in Valor" (two-minute web videos that, well, profile the new characters, using mostly clips from the series), as well as the full commercials from the Robinson episode. These are a must-watch for a couple of reasons, including Robinson'sperformances, the Asian girl's very sexy dancing, and Weigel and Williams' booty dances. Not getting the wealth of deleted footage on the DVD that earlier seasons offered has to be considered a disappointment.
On the other hand, some people might really enjoy the ability to download all 15 episodes, plus exclusive bonus footage, on your computer with a code that's included in the package. That is, if you have a PlaysForSure PMP, which doesn't include the iPod, iPhone or Zune. But you can still watch them on your computer, after the slow, lengthy download. The six additional pieces have five longer uncut scenes, including more of Lopez' mayor fighting with a hooker and two scenes with Walsh's lonely park ranger. I could tell you more, but after sitting and waiting for them to download (along with the app you need to install to download,) they wouldn't play. And by the way, these must be downloaded by July 7, 2010, or the code expires. (Thanks!)
The Bottom Line

Clampdown of China critics takes on "worrying pattern"Listen /
The harassment and intimidation of government critics, lawyers and NGO workers in China has taken on a "worrying pattern," according to the UN human rights chief.
Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein shared his concerns about the clampdown on Tuesday.
Police have detained about 250 human rights lawyers, legal assistants and activists across the country since an apparent nationwide crackdown began last July, although many were subsequently released.
Jocelyne Sambira has the story.
The UN High Commissioner for human rights is raising concerns and seeking clarifications from the Chinese authorities about the recent arrest, harassment and intimidation of human rights advocates.
In January, 15 human rights lawyers were formally arrested.
Ten of the lawyers were subsequently jailed for the crime of "subversion of state power" which carries a sentence of 15 years to life in prison.
Among those facing the charge are leading human rights lawyers Li Heping and Wang Yu.
Zeid is urging the Government of China to release all of them immediately without conditions.
He recalled that civil society actors, including lawyers, journalists and NGO workers have a right to carry out their work and that it was the Member States' duty to protect and support them.

Happy Sunday! Honestly, this week there isn't a ton to report since I came home on Monday sick after Healthy Living Summit. I did lots of sleeping and nose blowing, and was finally able to run Friday, but that was my first workout since Sunday. Let's recap, shall we?
Proof I actually ran in Boston. Did you ever doubt me?
(from Meghann's blog)
Sunday: 3 mile fun run at Healthy Living Summit
Monday: traveled home, let the sickies begin (obviously, rest day)
Tuesday: rest
Wednesday: rest
Thursday: WANTED to workout but knew if I wanted to run the next day it was a bad idea
Friday: 8 mile run
Saturday: Beast Body Bootcamp and 20 minutes stationary bike
eh. What can you do? It happens. 11 miles running for the week isn't awful….well, two weeks before a half marathon it is, but I hadn't done weights in a week, and I wanted to go into my race strong. Oh well! Rolling with the punches over here. I still have some lingering sniffles, but am hoping to tackle 11 miles tomorrow as my last (and only) double digit run before the half. I can't believe it's finally here! Have a great day everyone.
QOTD: Would you rather have a cold for a week or the chicken pox for a week?

One view on gun control
In the great State of Arizona, we have rules for hunters: While bird hunting a shot gun with no more than a three shell capacity is to be used. A shotgun is not to be used for large game, deer, elk, etc. These rules are in place to protect the species we hunt for food from being over hunted and to insure that future generations have access to enjoy the outdoors as we do now. I have never heard any of my friends who hunt complain that their Second Amendment rights have been taken away due to these rules. They understand it is for the good of us all that we adhere to these rules.
Also in the great State of Arizona, six people were killed, and more wounded by a by a gunman with a hand gun and magazine designed to kill people...people, and our Governor and her associates believe if more people had those type of guns we would be better off.
The opening line of the Second Amendment states: "A well regulated militia." How well regulated are all the organizations in our country who call themselves "militia"? Seems to me the only time we see these people is when, A: they are blowing up a building full of innocents. B: they are killing innocents with guns that are made for just that purpose. C: complaining that someone is infringing on their rights to have access to the materials needed to accomplish A or B. If these people were foreigners we would call them right-wing radicals or terrorists. In America, they call themselves patriots. I call them cowards.

A vintage Netherlands side comprehensively outplayed and defeated world champions Spain in the opening Group B game of the 2014 World Cup in Salvador.
The 2010 silver-medallists came back from a goal down to win 5-1 , sending a bold statement as to their title credentials whilst avenging the 1-0 defeat they suffered in the final four years ago.
In what turned out to be a classic display of attacking football, the Dutch – led by the excellent duo of Arjen Robben and captain Robin Van Persie – brought the Spanish to their knees, stunning the billions who watched the game world wide.
Xabi Alonso put the Spanish ahead on 26 minutes, beating Dutch goalie Jasper Cillessen from the spot after striker Diego Costa had been brought down by Stefan De Vrij. Amid the goal celebrations, La Roja would have imagined the humiliation that would follow.
Louis Van Gaal's men seized control of the game in a bid to land an equalizer and were duly rewarded two minutes before half time.
Van Persie stole his way behind the Spanish defence and leapt spectacularly to head in a brilliant Daley Blind long ball from just after the half way line. The diving header, from roughly 16 yards out, caught Casillas – who had come off his line – ball-watching as the ball looped into the net in what was arguably an early contender for goal of the tournament.
Bouyed by the goal, the Dutch returned from the break in high spirits, and found themselves in the lead eight minutes in.
In a build-up that was identical to the first goal, another brilliant long ball from Blind found Robben, who took a delightful first touch in the box in between the Spanish central defensive duo of Gerard Pique and Sergio Ramos. The bald winger then turned Pique and calmly slotted the ball past Casillas.
Five minutes later, Van Persie rattled the crossbar after being set-up by Daryl Janmaat, who had received a pass after an exciting run by Robben.
At that point, it would only be a matter of time before the Dutch got another goal, and it eventually came on 62 minutes, as Stefan De Vrij made amends for conceding the first half penalty to head in his first international goal at the far post off a Wesley Sneijder free kick.
The Spanish thought they had pulled one back five minutes later but David Silva's tap in was ruled offside.
Casillas' poor display on the day was summed up when he committed a grave error, woefully miscontrolling a back pass for Van Persie to pounce to complete his brace.
Robben completed the rout by grabbing his own brace, going on an electrifying solo run and rounding up a crawling Casillas.
In what turned out to be one of the World Cup's most historic games, the Spanish, utterly pulverized, were left to mope in the wake of what was their second heaviest defeat ever suffered.

Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California
I live in Glendale CA. I rented part of my apartment out. The landlord was unaware of my arrangement. But later told me he didnt care as long as the rent was paid and no damage. The ex roommate is suing me for the balance of the money he paid. He paid on the first and left 8days later. No 30 day notice. I know I can win this in small claims but my ex roommate is subpoenaing my landlord who he has never met to anger him and force him into court. My landlord is now angry with me over the issue because he works for the city and will have to take a sick day.
Is there anything I can do to relieve my landlord from having to appear as he's already explained to me there is nothing he can do to advance the case as he doesnt know what my roommate looks like..
2 Answers from Attorneys
How about just giving the roommate the money they asked for back and are suing for? . Are you sure you will win? Nothing is guaranteed. You might win a few bucks but damaged the relationship with your roommate and landlord. You were paying the rent before you had a roommate I don't see a lot of damages here unless you had several roommates lined up.
Your landlord doesn't have to take a sick day. If the subpoena has been personally served on him, all he has to do is to show the subpoena to his boss and they must let him take the necessary time to go to court. He doesn't have to use his personal time for that.

Marcia Segelstein, OneNewsNow
How big a role did the media play in helping to elect Barack Obama President of the United States? According to Bernard Goldberg, former CBS News correspondent and best-selling author, quite a big one. Hence the title and movie poster style cover of his new book, A Slobbering Love Affair: The True (and Pathetic) Story of the Torrid Romance Between Barack Obama and the Mainstream Media.

Let's take a look at some of the examples Goldberg lists. Just for fun, let's start with the New York Times.
When Obama's relationship to the Rev. Jeremiah Wright was making news, the Times ran an editorial saying that the connection between the two men "should be none of the voters' business."

Anytime Fitness to open its sixth East Bay gym
South Livermore will soon have a new 24-hour fitness center, likely by the spring.
The Livermore Planning Commission on Jan. 7 approved a conditional-use permit for an Anytime Fitness in the Lucky shopping center, at the northwest corner of Holmes Street and Concannon Boulevard.
The family-owned, 5,300-square-foot facility will occupy existing vacant buildings and include cardio and strength machines, free weights and a multipurpose room for fitness classes, said co-owner Darren Leggett.
"We want to get to know everyone and keep it a community-based gym," Leggett said.
Livermore will be the sixth Anytime Fitness location in the East Bay, joining others in Concord, Brentwood, Alameda, Berkeley and Newark. Leggett said he plans to open another in Pleasanton at a future date.

I've just installed a pre-soldered D2CPro/Wii-Clip into my machine and need a little help.
Upon installing the chip, the machine reads and plays original discs fine but not backups. I'm speculating as to whether these results point to a faulty backup/burn. My first assumption was that if there was a problem with the chip and/or it's installation, the console wouldn't work at all, original disc or otherwise. Is this sound reasoning or not?
I've only ripped one disc so far, burning it once with Alcohol 120 and once with Nero. Same results both times. The rip was done with RawDump and the resulting ISO file seems OK. One thing I have not done is use the recommended brand of blank media, using instead what I already had around.
As far as the install goes, I'm fairly certain the clip is properly seated. It took rather firm pressure but the thing is really on there snug and flush so I doubt there's an issue there.
I have a few more variables to rule out, but I thought I'd start looking for some assistance right away. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

A student organization from Central Texas College will help refurbish a local shelter for homeless families and individuals, thanks to a recent grant.
The college announced this week that its chapter of Enactus, formerly known as Students In Free Enterprise, received a $2,000 grant from Lowe's for a community service project to benefit Cove House Emergency Homeless Shelter in Copperas Cove.
"This is the first time we were approved for this grant," said Chastity Clemons, a business management professor and the organization's coordinator.
The shelter, operated by Cove House, served more than 521 individuals in 2012. That included 76 veterans and 73 families.
Clemons said the grant money would allow the organization's members to work on a number of improvements to the facilities such as purchasing new fire alarms and extinguishers, replacing damaged doors, performing minor repairs and expanding the facility's garden.
"We are very blessed and very thankful for the relationship we have with CTC and the (Enactus) program," said Benjamin Tindall, Cove House's executive director. "We are excited to be able to improve the houses, and make them more comfortable, energy efficient and convenient."
In addition, the students also will train the Cove House staff on how to give job workshops on a continuous basis in the future, and provide proper interview attire to Cove House residents when needed.
"We have worked with Cove House for a long time, nearly four years," Clemons said. "We know they're a quality organization that is important to the community."
The work for the grant needs to be completed by April 17, and will kick off a new Enactus community service initiative: Helping, Assisting, Recovering, Developing or HARD.
HARD won't be the first time the organization has reached out to help the community. Enactus won grants for $1,500 from Walmart, $1,500 from Sam's Club, and $500 from Campbell's Soup earlier this year. The money from those grants was used to fund the food drive collection efforts for area food banks.
The group also helped local owners revamp their businesses in Copperas Cove as part of its Operation Step Up program.

I saw a neat article in the July edition of "Photoshop User" on dropping in a tattoo using Photoshop. It looked like fun so here is my attempt at it.
I started with a cropped version of a recent photo that had a lot of exposed back to work with and then found some "Tattoo" samples to use:
For a first effort I think these turned out well.
The process is pretty straight forward:
- Bring in your pattern or "Tattoo" as a new layer with all of the white removed
- Change the blend mode of the layer to "Multiply"
- Re-size and or rotate as needed
- Remove or alter any portions overlay clothing or other image items
- For portions that wrap around or need it use the "Puppet Warp" feature in Photoshop
Next project is maybe some arm or more full body profile type "Tattoos". I had been wanteing do do something similar to "The girl with the dragon tattoo" in studio but until then this is a great option to play around with.

It's quite impossible to survive during those chilly winter nights without a proper home heating system. After all, this is what keeps you comfortable during those days when the temperature takes a dip. Quite unfortunately, most of the home fires occur due to malfunctioning of the heating systems. At times, this also occurs due to a fire triggered by a heating system that hasn't been maintained properly. This is why it's advisable to keep the home heating system in a sound condition, in…Continue

Dear masterminds behind all this Glee glory: We'd like to take a moment to thank you for bringing Brittany (Heather Morris) into our lives. Never before have we had the pleasure of enjoying such a ridiculously dumb yet always loveable character on television. True, The Office's Michael Scott has provided some head scratchers, but the title of most brainlessly brilliant goes to Glee's very own Cheerio. No contest.
Brittany's weekly one-liners easily rival Sue Sylvester's (oh yeah, we went there!), and as you'll see in the sneak peek below, they keep getting better...
We recently caught up with Heather and asked her how she's able to deliver her mindless lines so...mindlessly, and here's what she had to say: "It's the easiest job! It's so fun. I literally just stand there and doze off and then I'm like, oh yeah, I have to speak now!"
And she's totally enjoying the ride on her newfound fame train, too. "You go from deciding nothing to having this huge different life," she told us with a huge smile plastered across her adorable face. "This is all happening at once, [but] we're all going through it together so that's a good experience, as cheesy as it is."
For the record, we like cheese. And we like Brittany. And Heather, too. This is just one reason why:
Don't miss Glee Tuesday's at 9 p.m. of Fox.
Look at some of the other Glee gals in our Fashion Spotlight gallery.

FALLBROOK -- Two men were beaten early Wednesday during a home invasion robbery in Fallbrook, authorities said.
Three men forced their way into a trailer home at 7325 Larkspur Lane shortly after 1 a.m., according to San Diego County sheriff's Lt. Mike Munsey.
The men beat another man inside with a belt buckle and stole several items, including a cell phone and keys, he said.
The assailants then used a shovel to beat a second man who heard the commotion and attempted to help the first victim, according to Munsey. The extent of the two victims' injuries was not immediately reported.
The assailants attempted to flee in a vehicle but abandoned it after it became stuck in some mud, Munsey said, adding that they then ran away.
The two remained at large Wednesday evening but authorities know who they are because one of the victims knows them, Munsey said.

DETROIT, July 29 (UPI) -- John Ramsey, father of slain child beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey, is locked in a tight Michigan House race though ahead in money and fame.
Ramsey has raised more money than any of the other five candidates running for the 105th Michigan House District seat and is recognized more readily than his challengers, the Detroit Free Press said.
But, so far, polls show Ramsey's fame and the nature of his fame have led to mixed results. Five days before Tuesday's primary, a poll shows Ramsey locked in a tight race with three others.
Ramsey, who now lives in Charlevoix, trails Kevin Elsenheimer, an Antrim County attorney, who leads with 20 percent. Ramsey has 18 percent.
Ramsey and his wife, Patsy, were the focus of the investigation into their daughter's 1996 killing, but a grand jury investigation ended in 1999 without charges. The slaying, which occurred in the family home in Boulder, Colo., remains unsolved.

Hilary Duff Has Baby Boy
Hilary Duff, best known for her role as a lovable pre-teen on the Disney Channels "Lizzie McGuire," is now a mom. This past Tuesday, March 20, the singer-actress gave birth to a seven-pound, six-ounce baby boy named Luca Cruz Cormie. It is the 24-year-old's first child.
"We are overjoyed and feel like the luckiest parents in the world," Duff tweeted yesterday.
Duff's husband, and happy new father, is 31-year-old Mike Cormie. Born in Edmonton, Canada, Cormie played professional hockey for the Ottawa Senators, but has recently retired, The Washington Post reports. Duff and Cormie were married in Aug. 2010.
How will baby Luca affect Duff's career? In December, the singer-actress told Us Weekly that she anticipated taking some time off.
"I think that after I have the baby I'll want to sit still for a few months and learn how to be a really good mom," the singer/actress told the magazine in December. "And then there's no reason why I can't put a record out and tour... It might take a little while but I'm really excited about it."
The former Disney star was very public and open about her pregnancy experience, often tweeting jovially.
"When I get up, my massively pregnant morning walk looks like a 'walker' from 'The Walking Dead' #cmooooon BABY," she tweeted on Friday, March 16.
The actress also released a few viral videos with Funny or Die. The first is entitled "Hilary Duff's Pregnancy Secrets." It is a commercial parody for a fake product to help with increased hair growth, a side effect some woman experience when pregnant. Sporting a fake mustache, Duff acts as the spokesperson for this fake product, dubbed "NoGro Active."
The 24-year-old star also released a video called "Behind the Scene of Hilary Duff Pregnancy Secrets," in which she extolls comical advice on having the perfect celebrity baby.
Duff clearly had fun with her pregnancy, and according to her tweets, it seems like Duff is having just as much fun now that the baby is here.
"[Luca] is surrounded by so much love!! Mom and baby are both doing extremely well," she recently tweeted.

The best cereal!!
My favorite cereal . . . . . . . hearty, barely sweet, but not bland tasting, and it stays crisp in milk far longer than many other shredded wheat type cereals. Delightful with sliced banana. I find it sticks with me all morning, too. Just an excellent product.

Well, this is more for myself than for other people. Writing a review to remind myself to re-buy this cereal. I've been shipping in cereal for about a year now, trying to find cereal that I enjoy eating and that my body enjoys as well. This the first one that I can give a 100% good review to. It's absolutely delicious and chock full of fiber and protein.
Yummy as usual

I thought these would be similar to oatmeal squares but boy was I wrong. They don't even come close. The shredded wheat doesn't have a nice crunch to it. Doesn't come close to matching my favorite cereal - Quaker's oatmeal squares. It was edible but I will not be buying again.
Love it!
Posted by iHerb Customer on Oct 10, 2016 | Verified Purchase
This is one of my favorite types of cereal. I couldn't tell by the description when I ordered what exactly "autumn wheat" meant. It doesn't tastes particularly autumnal in my opinion but luckily it is slightly sweet--not just plain shredded wheat. I tried the cinnamon kashi cereal last time and it was a little too strong for me but this one is perfect!

I live in France and have had the TMC option as standard on my 2006 A4 3.0TDi with the RNSE DVD-Nav. Are there other improvements or is it just road changes plus the TMC for the UK? What does the new disc cost if anyone knows?, cheers, Mark

Hey, PZ and Ed? Is this really what FtB is for? Why is this guy here? Is he just a friend of one of you whom you're doing a favour by providing a scratchpad for silly posts full of swearing that is presumably meant to be more cool/funny/useful/whatever because it (pro)lapses into ye olde Englishe from time to time?
The only thing I've seen of any substance is a repost from who-knows-when; all the current items are just daft tantrums that would be a waste of even a Twitter account.
Just wondering!

Yeah be careful Comradde Physioproffe, I hear one of the reasons thunderfoot got kicked off FTB was because of his horrible writing style. But then we could be assuming too much integrity of PZ and you have nothing to worry about.

hey sunny day, why don't you go complain to PZ about this shit on pharyngula? No one here gives a fuck what you think.

Dab must be a real hit at parties.. constantly telling everyone what he doesn't like about them.
Who am I kidding? People like Dab never crawl out from under their rock and venture out where their words might have consequences. Fucken Chickenshit.

Why are there haters in here? Sad, sad little people.

Thunderf00t got booted because he was a newcomer who fixated on the idea that open misogyny is protected speech, and that the role of FtB is to give every opinion, however misguided, a home. CPP was a commenter at various of the Scienceblogs before they were Scienceblogs. He's got quite a bit of cred that Tf didn't.
Dab reminds me of poor crazy Isabel.

Why all the haters? Won't somebody please think of the risotto?
DrugMonkey says
CPP was a commenter at various of the Scienceblogs before they were Scienceblogs
CPP was a co-blogger at the classiest blog of Scienceblogs before they went to pot. Not merely a "commenter".
Whether that gives him cred or not is neither here nor there…..

Dab reminds me of poor crazy Isabel.
Even Isabel has one or two arguable points, even if her presentation style is….interesting.
Trebuchet says
Physioproffe: I've only just learned that Ichiro Suzuki has been traded to the Yankees. You win. Since "my" Mariners have never figured out that trading away ALL of their best players is never going to build them a winning team, I think I'm a Yankees fan from now on. Fucke Yeah!
gingerest says
Oh, yes, I do remember and should have mentioned that CPP was your co-blogger. I got hung up on the length of time he's been around (forever) at the cost of the nature of his contributions (commenter, then co-blogger, then free-standing blogger).
Sometimes Isabel had a real point. Sometimes she just wanted to hold forth on her favorite theme "Everyone Is Against Me and I Would Dearly Love to Set Dr.Isis on Fire with My Mind."
Midnight Rambler says
CPP was a co-blogger at the classiest blog of Scienceblogs before they went to pot.
Which one was that? I admit I didn't read any besides Pharyngula and Orac.
Chebag says
I think it was "Greg Laden's Blog", wasn't it?

Fucken Alex Rodriguez broke his fucken hand and will be out for a while. Fucken Yankee fan is in mourning.

slc1, I can't resist a little Boston schadenfreude. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
On the other hand, congrats on getting Ichiro. Shame they couldn't give him his usual lifetime jersey number, 51.

Even if I switch to rooting for the Yankees because of Ichiro, I will continue to hate ARod. In which "A" stands for "Asshole".

Nate Schierholtz drove in the winning run in the ninth inning to help the Chicago Cubs to a 2-1 win over the New York Mets in the opener of a three-game series.
With Scott Rice (1-2) on the mound, Anthony Rizzo led off with a single. Starlin Castro then hit a grounder to third that David Wright had trouble with and only got the out at first.
Luis Valbuena then struck out and Rice had Schierholtz facing an 0-2 count, but Schierholtz smacked a single into right and Rizzo easily scored for the victory.

Have you ever started a pitch meeting only to look at several poker faces wondering whether or not they're going to give your project the green light?
Wonder no more. After speaking with Karen Siff Exkorn, founder of SpeakOn.org and one of the nation's top corporate trainers and keynote speakers for Fortune 500 companies, we're confident about perfecting the pitch meeting courtesy of her pointers.
1. Body language. For starters, look at the people you're pitching. Is their body language open or closed? The author of the parody, Fifty Two Shades of Blue-ish, says, "Look for little things. Are they leaning into you? Are their heads tilted? That means they're listening. Are they nodding?" There are verbal cues as well such as saying, "Uh huh."
As for you, when you're pitching, your body language should be in neutral mode, preferrably with both feet flat on the ground if you're sitting.
If someone you're pitching to has his or her arms crossed, they're not open to your ideas. As for a suggestion, Exkorn recommends mirroring them and folding your arms as well only to subtly separate them to open up your body language in anticipation they'll subsequently open up their own. Essentially, when it comes to mirroring if your audience is reflecting your body language, it's a sure sign they're in agreement with you.
And if they're texting or online and clearly disengaged with your presentation, switch gears and lower your volume "so they are forced to lean in."
2. Eye contact. This sounds basic but you'd be surprised how many people forget to gauge this one. Is your audience looking at you or past you or are they simply gazing? If it's the latter, they're likely not engaged and not interested.
As for what you can do, make eye contact with every single person in the room. "You want everyone to feel special and a part of what you're saying."
Exkorn adds, "Look at all the people during the pitch but you want to identify the power player." That is, who is the decision maker who will ultimately choose to hire you?
3. Likeability. In addition to knowing your audience ahead of time and preparing for the pitch so you speak from the heart instead of from a Powerpoint deck, she explains, "Get people to fall in love with you. As much as your product is important, you have to establish rapport and credibility up front."
Pointers aside, even with a presentation that's off the chart, what if you completely bomb?
Ask questions, says the expert. "In the moment you do need to regroup," she points out. "Say, 'I feel like I'm losing you. What do you want from my services? Let me help you find a solution to this problem.'"

The EuroLeague Women Play-Offs arrived last week to deliver even more spectacular treats than usual and we haven't even completed the eighth-finals just yet.
I never get tired of saying it and thankfully never will - EuroLeague Women never fails to produce the full package for fans. Last week encapsulated everything you just have to love about the competition, plus a little bit more too. The tournament really did excel itself with the levels of pulsating entertainment and genuinely nerve-shredding excitement.
Another dimension which continues to grow was also evident once again, namely the element of surprise. EuroLeague Women has become quite deliciously 'predictably unpredictable' which makes it just so much fun for everyone concerned.
Even during the Qualifying Round we had plenty of shocks and surprises with those expected to get to Final Four either losing or being pushed mighty close. That didn't change as the play-offs tipped off.
|MKB Euroleasing's Friday win means they live to fight another day and now the pressure is on Marta Fernandez's Ros Casares
For example, we had Ros Casares being taken to a third game in the series by MKB Euroleasing and UMMC Ekaterinburg dodging two potentially fatal bullets against Rivas Ecopolis.
Of those teams who have already booked their place in the last eight, you have to say that Fenerbahce, Halcon Avenida and UMMC Ekaterinburg were probably favourites to get the job done early.
The latter were pushed really hard by Rivas as already mentioned but I think the real credit has to go to Wisla Can-Pack, the fourth team to book their place by picking up a 2-0 series win. Nadezhda were my dark horses to make Final Four and a really dangerous team but all credit to Jose Hernandez and the Krakow club. They did a really great job.
Of those teams who failed in their quest to reach the last eight of the competition, major credit to Pecs 2010 who are definitely the warriors of this 2011 tournament. They just kept fighting but didn't have the depth of quality to quite combat Halcon Avenida.
Rivas showed they have huge potential but must now take their opportunity to focus on Liga Femenina which is a must as they have slipped to a number of losses of late and need to get back to challenging Ros and Salamanca.
Nadezhda promised a lot but the impact of Becky Hammon not firing on all cylinders at a crucial time probably cost them. At least there was success in some respects off the court for the Russian club with over 6,000 viewers tuning in for Nadezhda TV, a project initiated by fans in conjunction with the club to raise the profile of their team.
As for Galatasaray Medical Park, I have mentioned them throughout this competition and waited for them to rise from their slumber. Unfortunately they continued to sleepwalk through right until the last moment when they went out against arch rivals Fenerbahce with barely a whimper. Consequently they must be a front-runner for the unwanted tag of under-achievers of the season.
Last but not least of course we have another eight teams all 40 minutes away from grabbing those last four places in the quarter finals when dreams of Final Four become much more vivid.
|Wisla Can-Pack's Paulina Pawlak is Paul's pick for 'Cameo Of The Week', for her brilliant perfomance in Orenburg
Aside from MKB Euroleasing who would be seen as most people as having to complete one of the biggest shocks in play-off history in Valencia, I think it is true to say all of the other three games are difficult to call for one reason or another.
So, you know what that means? We get another load of entertainment and thrilling EuroLeague Women action to gorge ourselves on again this week. Yes, absolutely fantastic. - my thoughts exactly!
Paulball Jaw Dropper - Having lost by almost 30 points during the first game in Valencia and taking into account the recent blow of losing kingpin Angel McCoughtry to Fenerbahce, the 72-70 success of MKB Euroleasing against Ros Casares to take this series to the wire was a real jaw dropper!
Paulball Quote Of The Week - Pecs 2010 legend Dalma Ivanyi summarises what it means when another season of EuroLeague Women comes to an end for her and her team. "I am so sad. It was our last game. We did our best but it was not enough. The wind blew against us."
Paulball Performers Of The Week - There are plenty of options to choose from but it's hard to look past Wisla Can-Pack who finished off a tough and dangerous Nadezhda team without the need for a third game. Not many teams win in Orenburg and their 72-63 success was a fabulous result and a real eye opener for their rivals. The Polish club, led by Erin Phillips could fancy their chances of securing back to back Final Four appearances with this type of victory although they face a tough proposition in the last eight.
Paulball Fabulous Five - Cappie Pondexter, Sancho Lyttle, Anastasiya Verameyneka, Rebekkah Brunson, Courtney Paris,
Paulball Cameo Of The Week - Paulina Pawlak was an efficient 4 of 5 from the field including three triples on her way to 11 points for Wisla Can-Pack in the win at Nadezhda. She also dished up 4 assists and didn't turn the ball over once.
Paulball Stat of The Week - While she didn't have her best night offensively or percentage-wise, there is no keeping Celine Dumerc down. Her quality shone through for UMMC Ekaterinburg with six steals - absolute gold dust in such a tight overtime game.
Paulball Rising Star Performer Of The Week - Tijana Krivacevic continued to enhance her burgeoning reputation once again, this time leading her team to that famous win against Ros Casares with 21 points and 5 rebounds.

What August Looks Like | 2014
Dear Brooks,
The images I selected for this month's post make me smile so much. The memories behind each set is filled with lots of laughter, joy and pride!
This first set cracks me up! You and Skyler sat down one day this summer and tried out Bean Boozled. I laughed so hard at you two, I may have peed my pants, just a little. The video we have to go along with this is even better than the still images. Priceless laughter!
We had World Cup fever all summer and loved cheering on the USA with Sky and the rest of the family!
Beach days with the family! There's nothing better! The big boys finally had some time to spend with you and Sky on your surfboard. You both got up and couldn't have been more thrilled!
Soccer. Soccer. And more soccer. Such a huge part of our summer and I wouldn't have it any other way! This tournament was even more special because you got to play forward for the first time and scored a goal! So thrilling!! Plus after being a finalist in 5 out of 6 tournaments, your team finally one this tournament!
Coach Scott didn't think you were all celebrating quite right, so he helped you out!
Awww. The first day of 4th grade. You're not too thrilled with 4th grade so far. We both adore your teacher, but unfortunately there are kiddos in your class that make it difficult for you (and others) to focus and enjoy the class. Your sweet teacher has to work extra hard and I'm sure it's taking a toll on her. I'm praying that things get better and that there is a bigger lesson in this year for you (and me).
Yes! That's rain on the first day of school … in San Diego!!! So strange!
I'll wrap up this note with images from the Pacific Coast Championship Triathlon in Newport. You totally rocked this race. I tried and tried to get you to back out of the race, but you had your heart set on racing. I really didn't think you were prepared for the bike portion because you just haven't had time to train.
The swim portion was canceled for the kiddos because the surf was HUGE! The kids had a beach start and then took off up this steep, long hill! You totally tore it up!
Then you surprised the heck out of me when you rounded the corner on the bike (after a 6 mile ride). There were 5 kids ahead of you, but they all had lightweight, road race bikes. You had to work twice as hard on your mountain bike, but you did it!
You wrapped up the mile run with a killer split and a strong finish! Faster runner on the course!
Congratulations on your determination and perseverance! You always make me proud! I love to watch you compete!
Love you to the moon and back!
Please continue on with the group by visiting the talented, Roxanne Bryant.

Two members of the Londonderry Bands Forum have been successful in the latest round of funding allocated by the Ulster-Scots Agency for musical tuition.
Caw Flute Band and Bready Pipe Band have both been funded for twenty week tuition courses in traditional fluting and piping.
In joint collaboration with the coordinator of the Forum, Mr Derek Moore and their local community centres at Caw and the Sollus Centre in Bready both bands made full use of the help and expertise available to them to create lesson and tuition plans to satisfy the awarding panel of the Ulster Scots Agency.
Bands Forum coordinator Derek Moore told the Sentinel that funding this year had been harder than ever to obtain due to restrictions in the amount available to the agency.
He said that Forum member bands - William King Memorial, Kildoag and Churchill flute bands - had all received this funding in the past and had noticed a great boost to the young people they were training.
The Londonderry Bands Forum is the only one in Northern Ireland to have a worker dedicated to the positive promotion and interests of the local bands.
The Forum is helping with upgrading constitutions and policies for bands as well as organising training for the people who currently run the bands and more importantly for those young people who will take over in a few years.
Bands Forum chairman Mr Kenny McFarland expressed his disappointment that the Killaloo Accordion band was unsuccessful with their application due to a technical error in their paperwork.
Mr McFarland urged all Forum member bands to make use of the help now available and called on all bands not in the Forum to contact Mr Moore at St Columbs Park House in order to find out more about the help and support that is available to them.
Meanwhile, an exciting development is also taking place between the Forum and the Good Relations Department of Derry City Council.
This will involve classes in various schools from the Derry City Council area undertaking lessons and activities associated with the promotion of the whole aspect to being in a band.
Mr Moore explained that the focus will be on the community leadership that bands excel in and the benefits to local society and the wider economic impact that the band movement provides.
He added he hoped this would dispel the negatives that have been present in the past by showing the real aspects of being in a band and the amount of effort needed to sustain the organisational side and keep it going.
The Forum was set up nearly three years ago to teach members the history of marching bands and create a strong cohesive voice amongst its membership.
Set up at the request of local bands it has worked steadily to allow groups to share good practice and information on funding opportunities and also to support the Protestant Unionist Loyalist (PUL) community generally.

Recent statistics show that women die faster than men and the sole reason is due to these 8 types of diseases that affect them. More than two million women in the world are battling cancers related to the ovaries and breast.
The scary part is, women are also prone to developing diabetes in the recent past and together with this deadly disease, anaemia too is on the rise for a number of deaths in women.
7 Cancers That Affect Only Women
Today, there are a lot of medical treatments that you can turn to if you want to survive and fight these diseases. In some cases, home remedies too can help if you turn to it at the right time.
Experts state that women should make it a point to pay monthly visits to the doctor for their overall checkups. These medical visits will help you to be more aware in case you're suffering from any disease that can kill you.
Secrets Healthy Indian Women Follow
So, ladies, if you are 25 years or older, here are some of the major diseases that can ruin your chance of living a healthy life. Why don't you spend a few minutes reading this article:
Heart Disease:
It is recorded that 38 per cent of the women die with their first heart attack when compared to men with a 28 per cent chances. Women who smoke have an increased chance of getting a block in the heart and are likely to suffer from heart diseases too.
Breast Cancer:
Women over the age of 35 years should go in for a mammogram test regularly to determine if the breasts are healthy or not. After the age of 23 years, women need to self-examine their breasts to check for unusual lumps, which is one of the initial signs of breast cancer.
Cervical Cancer:
This is a cancer that forms in the tissue of the cervix. Women who have multiple sexual partners are more prone to developing this cancer, as it is spread initially through a virus. Bleeding after intercourse, abdominal pain and excruciating pain during regular menstrual dates are another sign.
Ovarian Cancer:
This cancer arises from the ovary. It is the 7th most common cancer in the world and affects more than a million women every year. Ovarian cancer does not have any first-hand symptoms, until the cancer has spread thoroughly.
Due to social stigma, most women in India commit suicide. The reason is due to feeling depressed and helpless in their work field, feeling of being dominated in the family and more.
Type 2 diabetes is very common in women over the age of 28 years, says a study. Women who ignore to follow a healthy and balanced lifestyle, normally end up with this disease that can kill them.
Kidney Disease:
High blood pressure, heart disease and a family with this problem can give rise to the onset of kidney disease in women. Though early symptoms of kidney disease are bleak, urine and blood tests can determine it.

Ryan Seacrest is in the money. Like, for real. The "American Idol" host has locked in a deal worth an estimated $15 million per year for three years with the bigwigs behind the reality series, The Hollywood Reporter said Monday. That's more than three times his previous estimated paycheck of almost $5 million per season. Three times! If that weren't big enough news, the ubiquitous TV, radio and event host also reportedly has some new projects in the works. Yes, things are really looking up for America's favorite most tolerable MC. Check it.
Side order
When he's not thinking "Idol," Seacrest hosts "American Top 40" on KIIS-FM and is managing editor and anchor for E! Entertainment News. Oh, he also does that New Year's thing Dick Clark started.

The lights are on
IGN tracked down the news today of Robilliard's return to Sony via an update to the developer's LinkedIn profile. Prior to working at LucasArts on titles like Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II and more recently as creative director on the canceled Star Wars 1313, Dominic Robilliard worked with Sony Europe on The Getaway series.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Robilliard has been back at Sony since July of 2013, but it's unclear exactly what titles he's been working on since coming back to the company.
[Source: LinkedIn via IGN]
Our TakeIt's great to find out the Robilliard has landed on his feet with a new position at Sony after the closure of Lucasarts. I'm looking forward to finding out what he's working on. Even so, I'm reminded how sad I am that we won't be seeing Star Wars 1313 come to fruition; here's hoping some great new Star Wars games are announced sometime soon.

Hummingbirds are amazing creatures!
Here are some fun facts…
The Cuban Bee Hummingbird and is the tiniest bird in the world and measures only about 2 inches long (about the same length as your house key!) Because hummingbirds are so tiny, their nests are tiny too – only about 1 inch deep and 2 inches wide on the inside. To make this itty bitty nest stronger, hummingbirds use spider silk to bind their nests together.
Hummingbird eggs are small too of course and hummingbird moms usually lay two eggs each season. Most eggs are just a little bigger than a jelly bean!
In the right light a hummingbird can shine just like a charm on a bracelet. The structure of their feathers reflects the light like a prism and shows off the beautiful colors to attract a mate. The very rare Marvelous Spatuletail Hummingbird has some very special tail feathers that look like spatulas on long, flexible handles. Take a look at the video below.

Nevada County, California Criminal Records
There are many reasons to conduct a background check. Some people use them to check the past of a potential mate. Employers who are looking into potential applicants do background checks most often. Some other reasons for doing these checks are for security clearances, assistance in developing suspects in an ongoing criminal investigation, immigration/international travel/visa, enhanced sentencing in criminal prosecutions, licensing, identification and adoption. Once a background check is completed, a potential employer might have access to some of the following information: past names, driving records, verification of employment history, past addresses, credit history and gaps in employment. Some other organizations that do background checks include churches, financial institutions, schools and government offices.
Court Records
Court records comprise a significant portion of the public records that you will use to gather the information you need when performing a background check.

I Love it
Even If I agree it sounds like a BaseBall game, it does have its intense feeling in the sound and vibrance of the bass ... if you know what I mean, it's EPIC!!!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I liked
Very good remix thanx for not put vocals.
Rated 1 / 5 stars
Not good.
It would of been better if you added vocals instead of the organ.
Rated 1 / 5 stars
am i at a baseball game?
it sounds like a baseball game. and the drums are too much for a CHURCH ORGAN sound.
tis a good try ill give you that.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Kind of Cool.
I liked how the song showed solid progression, in that you added the drums and stuff throughout it. It's strange to hear this without vocals, but I think you did a good job with it. It certainly deserves some praise, because it's such a good song and you didn't hurt it.
Overall, there are some things that could be improved, like whatever sound was doing what would be the vocals. I found it kind of odd and just a little distracting at times. It's a good song, and great job with this.

Off-Topic. Hubby is watching the basketball game in the living room. I just heard the worst rendition of the national anthem I've ever heard . . . some group called "The Fray."
And now back to DWTS.
Well, I guess it's safe to say one of the all 8 couples is leaving tomorrow. Not sure who it'll be, though my money right now would be on Jack. Unless Jaleel's bust up was that ugly that he either drops out or people who were voting for him stop.
So nice to have a positive dance! I dont think she is doing all that well but I dont care.
OMG that singer is awful and Melissa did not do too well
and again - what do I know - they all loved them!
I'm predicting 8's...again. Only because the judges were quasi-positive. Otherwise it'd be 7's.
Hey y'all!
Can't watch tonight, but am getting my fix by following the board!
Keep up the good work!

You know, it is kind of impressive that someone can go from walking with a walker to doing a jive on television in a year's time. I'm not saying that should affect Melissa's scores--or anyone else's--but it is a personal accomplishment for her.
