Are You Ready for New Girl to Be the Best Sitcom on Television?
Very soon it will be.
The best sitcoms get you from all angles. They can execute a variety of joke types, tell a wide range of stories, and successfully focus on any single member (or combination) of their principal cast. This nimbleness separates them from the rest of the sitcom pack, and the top shows always feel unpredictable, even if their rhythms are familiar. Arrested Development, The Office, Parks and Recreation, Community — each of these sitcoms from the past decade successfully navigated this dance between structure and looseness. Now, midway through its second season, New Girl has joined their ranks.
New Girl premiered in the fall of 2011 to enthusiastic commercial popularity and tempered critical enthusiasm. It had a sharper pilot than most and featured a movie star. The masses (rightfully) loved Schmidt, felt the other males were underdeveloped, and thought the whole thing was a bit too twee. Then, in the second half of the first season, a pair of pivotal plot turns were introduced:
- Nick dated the tough lawyer Julia (Lizzy Caplan), a character directly at odds with Jess's girliness — and her introduction allowed the show to squarely address that critique. Show creator Liz Meriwether told the A.V. Club that Zooey Deschanel's profile in New York was a major inspiration: "I wasn't even really aware that there was any conversation about [Deschanel], who she is or anything like that ... I do think that's an interesting topic: What does being a woman today mean? Is there a right way of doing it? Is there a wrong way of doing it? Different kinds of women, female friendships: It's all pretty funny, and worth making fun of." And the show has done exactly that ever since. It was also important for Jess to be able to defend herself against the critics in her own home. She was able to maintain her overt girliness while showing some necessary toughness.
- Jess started to date the wealthy, older "Fancyman" (Dermot Mulroney). He made Jess seem more mature and, more important, made the guys seem less so. The principal cast's dynamic became less like three older brothers looking out for their whimsical little sister and more like a group of kids in the back of the class egging each other on. It was also through Fancyman that Nick's character began to solidify. We started to see how insecure Nick is about his manhood. We learned how he developed a shell of grumpiness to protect himself from his fear of failure. And with those core character traits in place, he was able to arguably become the funniest part of the show — yep, even funnier than Schmidt. (It should be noted that it was also during the "Fancyman" arc that the True American game was introduced, so that's another win.)
As a result, by the end of last season, New Girl was spitting distance from the sitcom upper echelon. But there were still two glaring shortcomings, one of them character based, that the show had yet to deal with.
The first was Winston's "normal one" role, which was unfair, lazy, and a wasted opportunity for comedy. Then this season's fourth episode came around and they gave him a thing — we were introduced to "Prank Sinatra," the world's worst pranker. While Nick was doggedly spending all of his time subtly ruining Schmidt's life, Winston kept on thinking of terrible ideas that were either too minor (put shoe-shavings by Schmidt's car) or too severe (pour acid on Schmidt's face). This son of a gun mentality reappeared when he made the two Schmidts compete during Thanksgiving and when he misguidedly tried to make Schmidt buy him crack. He's also had emotional moments — whether it was his panic attacks or getting his period — that were played successfully both for heart and comedy. It's gotten to a point where any four of the leads can carry a story line, which is extremely important as the show moves forward. (Though not part of the core four, the show is getting better at finding funny things for CeCe to do. As we saw last episode, there's something in her inability to be funny or imperfect. She can't just be one of the roomies.)
The second shortcoming was the fact that the show, during its first season, was overly tidy, a trait that could be traced back to creator Liz Meriwether's background, which wasn't in television but playwriting. The show was very dialogue-heavy, falling time and again on comedic rants and excessive shouting. It brought to mind a famous piece of advice from Tina Fey's Bossypants: "When hiring, mix Harvard Nerds with Chicago Improvisers." To generalize, Fey argued that Harvard nerds risked being too cerebral and Chicago Improvisers risked being too visceral. Though Meriwether technically went to Yale, this still held true for New Girl — it was too in its own head. But then Kay Cannon was brought on as a co-executive producer for this season. Cannon is a Chicago-trained and acclaimed improviser, who wrote the hilarious Pitch Perfect and worked for six seasons on 30 Rock. It was at the latter that she learned to balance rapid-fire dialogue, character-based jokes, and physical ridiculousness. (Think: Liz's Dealbreaker promo.) On New Girl, she has a writing credit on "Re-Launch," which featured Schmidt's insane fire show, and "Eggs," which featured this moment that perfectly blended more writerly and more performative sensibilities:
It's hard to know who came up with which bit, but this season has had a ton of good ones: Jess's attempt at being a model, Winston and Jess ransacking the apartment while pretending to be meth heads, Nick trying to eat an olive after drinking absinthe, Nick getting/giving a water massage, Nick climbing through the window using that giant tire. (Seriously, Jake Johnson has been killing it — proving himself an incredibly gifted physical comedian.) You can't build a show exclusively around physical comedy (because that would basically be Wipeout: Celebrities With Bangs Edition), but it undoubtedly shakes things up. With this, New Girl has developed a well-rounded, fully formed comedy infrastructure. They can pair whomever together and tell whatever type of story they want, and something really freaking funny will come out of it. And because of this, the show is in waiting, ready for the title of "best sitcom on television."
It sounds extreme, but it's something we must prepare for. 30 Rock has one episode left. The Office only has a handful. B---- in Apartment 23 and Ben and Kate were ostensibly canceled last week. Community, Parks and Recreation, and Happy Endings all have uncertain futures. They also don't have particularly certain presents: Community has entirely new showrunners; Parks, now in its fifth season, is slowly starting to feel stale; Happy Endings has recently struggled because of too many pop-culture references and a failure to develop its characters. Beyond that, Big Bang Theory still drags from repetitiveness and a lack of ambition. How I Met Your Mother and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia can muster plenty of great moments, but its just too hard for a show in its eighth season to feel super fresh. Suburgatory, despite having had a wonderful season so far, is just not there yet in terms of getting laughs. Some of the freshman comedies show promise but are definitely not in the same league as the best. And, of course, there is Modern Family, which is having its strongest season since its first, but it continues to struggle with episode-to-episode consistency. All of these shows might have the funniest episode in a given week, but in terms of big picture, moving forward, New Girl is the best bet — even if it's partially by default.
Tonight on New Girl, Nick and Schmidt fight over a girl, Winston tries to seduce someone who has no interest in him, and the whole gang plays Strip True American (which the promo suggests involves Nick and Jess trying to kiss in front of a room of cheering friends). It sounds like a silly, fun time, and it might end up being so, or it might end up being surprisingly grounded. Who knows? More important, who cares? New Girl is at a point where we don't have to worry about these things beforehand. Being the best sitcom is a matter of trust, so regardless of where Schmidt, Winston, Jess, and Nick go, we're ready to follow them there.

She walked into the kitchen, where Dave was, and began to ask Dave questions about her sexy body and that super tight outfit she was wearing. Her big ass was looking succulent in those tiny shorts. She told Dave she was going to take a shower and that he could use the guest bathroom to shower. Later on, Dave walks into the bathroom to shower to find Krystal sitting there naked and looking very sexy. She persuaded Dave to let her suck his cock.

About Online Sports Betting
The free model will need to evolve into something different or will die out. Either electricity and maintenance costs will be higher than tips from passengers and advertising dollars or cabbies will bully them out.
If you just put a sticker on a bumper for advertising - there is no way to measure its impact, and in these hard economic times unless you prove that those ads are working - the ad dollars will dry up fast. One way would be to do more proactive advertising by selling in these free vehicles advertisers products - that could be selling tickets to the shows, exhibitions, etc..
I would also study busy times at airports and man the check points accordingly to save on labor costs.

It's an instant meme – the "Dewey defeats Truman" of 2012.
When CNN and Fox News initially misreported that the US Supreme Court had struck down the so-called individual mandate in President Obama's Affordable Care Act – the central pillar of the law – a guy named Gary He went to work.
Mr. He, product director at Insider Images, per The New York Times, superimposed Mr. Obama's face on the famous shot of President Truman holding up the Chicago Tribune from Nov. 3, 1948, and He posted the image on his Twitter feed. The Tribune had initially, and wrongly, reported that New York Gov. Thomas Dewey (R) had defeated Mr. Truman, based on a bad hunch by the paper's political analyst.
The foul-up by CNN and Fox happened for a different reason. According to the Times, both news outlets had come to the point in Chief Justice John Roberts's majority opinion declaring that the mandate was unconstitutional under the Commerce Clause, and then ran with it. In fact, the court had also ruled that the penalty for failing to buy insurance was a tax, and therefore the mandate survived.
Thus, Obama is the new Truman. And in the 2012 version, he is holding up a tablet showing the CNN home page declaring, "Mandate struck down."

The Background Story Of The NY Times' Relationship With Julian Assange
from the complex-actors-in-complex-situations dept
Keller's final suggestion that Wikileaks' impact has been "overblown" is belied somewhat by the fact that Keller just spilled so much ink on the background of the paper's association (and subsequent blacklisting) with the organization. There are other points that could be nitpicked, but it's not surprising that Keller seeks to position the NY Times in the best possible light, and perhaps minimize the contributions of Wikileaks itself. But, just the fact that the NYT's is now considering its own Wikileaks, shows that the idea certainly has changed the way many people think about this aspect of reporting.
I'd argue -- as some others have -- that the impact of Wikileaks has actually been both over- and under-estimated. And part of the problem is that so many people are quick to conflate the idea of such an organization with the single organization itself (or worse, with a single person in the form of an easily dislikable Julian Assange). But it's a mistake to think that just because the particular organization itself is flawed, that its existence and what it's accomplished so far won't have profound effects on secrecy in organizations (government and corporate), the practice of journalism itself (which has suddenly gotten a hint of what's possible), and the idea of distributed or "stateless" organizations as enablers of information flow. It's that last point that I think many are ignoring, and that will later prove to be a mistake.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner on Thursday urged his unruly caucus to show flexibility over a measure to keep the government open when funding runs out in less than a week, a fellow Republican said.
Republican Representative Mo Brooks, a member of the caucus, said Boehner "told us to be flexible" during a meeting on Thursday morning.
Separately, Republican Representative Pete Sessions said there would be no shutdown or government default.
The looming deadline for the government to hit the debt ceiling and government funding measures are complicated by Republican attempts to use the bills to gut President Barack Obama's signature healthcare law, known as "Obamacare."
The Democratic-led Senate is on track to vote on Saturday for legislation to avert government agency shutdowns. But the Republican-led House was set for tough fights over the next few days.

HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA -- After searching every furniture store in New York, we realized the only way I would find a sectional for my office would be to have one custom made. We were greatly impressed by the quality of work we found at the Simplicity Sofas factory and could not have been happier to have the owner/salesman work so closely with us. When our sectional arrived in our home we were overjoyed by how beautiful it was and ecstatic about the quality of the work and the materials used.
My office is a psychotherapy office and every patient that has come in has raved about how comfortable the sofa is and how beautiful it is. This is a very professional company and everyone we worked with or spoke to on the phone was incredibly knowledgeable and very helpful. I am so grateful to the people at Simplicity for the time they spent with us and for the superior quality of the work they produce!
We have a small apt. in NYC. Normal couches wouldn't fit in our pre-war elevator. We found Simplicity Sofas online. We saw couches we loved and called to double check if they would fit. We found they offered more options than we had realized. We picked our fabric, our style, our size and it didn't take them long to make a couch and a loveseat to order. We LOVE them.
They changed our apt. We now have room and the couches look elegant - they don't look small at all. And they fit in our elevators. Best of all, their price was even less than the major department stores. We highly recommend this company.
I recently moved from a 3200 square foot home into a 1600 square foot home and sold most of my oversized furniture. I then spent the better part of a month going to furniture stores looking for just the right sized sofa and chair for the new living room. I googled small sofas and Simplicity Sofas came up.
I have never ordered furniture online and had a great deal of trepidation about what to expect and how difficult it might be to return if I didn't like it. And I wasn't sure about the likely quality of ready to assemble furniture. I read the reviews and all were positive which also sounded too good to be true. But, turned out to be overwhelmingly the case!
I ordered a catalog and some swatches. Decided on the color and took the plunge! Within 24 hours I had a personal email from the company president. At about two weeks, he emailed again that the blue denim swatch they had sent was different than the bolt of material that they were going to make the furniture from, he sent the swatch of the new fabric. I thought it was a bit dark and he offered to throw in some lighter throw pillows with a denim cord.
The furniture arrived in 6 boxes at exactly the four week from order mark. (I ordered an apartment sofa and a chair and a half.) I had the furniture set up and arranged and the boxes out of the house in about 45 minutes. Within a day of delivery I had another email seeking feedback on the product and the customer service. It's beautiful, well made, solid and comfortable. I am very impressed with the furniture and even more impressed with the customer service. I would not have had this pleasant an experience purchasing in person at the local furniture store!
HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA -- We recently purchased a couch and "chair and a half" from Simplicity Sofas. Like most people we had always bought furniture in person so we could see it, feel it etc. We were reluctant to buy online with anyone because of not being able to try it out. My wife found Simplicity Sofas and the fact that they specialize in sizes made for every room and the reviews we found we were hooked. We ordered about 12 fabric samples (5 were free) and after seeing them we decided this was the right move. To be sure we searched the local stores one more time and nothing compared.
We went online made our final decisions and made the call. When I called I had a couple of questions and lo and behold I was speaking to the owner of the company, who answered all of my questions. The furniture is custom made when you order so it takes a couple of weeks but it is worth the wait. It came in 5 good size boxes and just like the website claims it went together in 15 min. Now you are probably thinking that if it goes together in 15 min it can't be good quality. BULL!
It is all solid wood backing (no fiber board or pressboard) all hard wood feet. Everything goes together like magic and is obviously engineered very well as it all slides where it should slide and fits where it should fit. The other thing you may be wondering is it comfortable? Yes. The couch is long enough for me to stretch out on (I am 6'2") and firm enough not to sag and soft enough not to be uncomfortable. In short we love everything about of chair and couch and we would buy it all again. One of the places that we were looking at and were thinking about buying from was Ikea, the problem, press board and very little wood to be found anywhere.
We love our Simplicity Sofa furniture and would recommend it to anyone.
HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA -- First off, I was happy to find your website as I, like others, had issues regarding narrow doorways and such leading to my basement. Buying couches without "test-driving" made me a little leery. After reading customer comments and speaking with **, I made my order. Those fears proved unfounded as the couches are better than expected; solid build, awesome fabric and, obviously, simple assembly. Two couches delivered to NJ in just over 30 days.
** took the time to answer all my questions and sent plenty of swatches to make choosing the fabric much easier. First-rate experience throughout the process. Add me to your growing list of very satisfied customers. Much thanks to ** and everyone involved in fulfilling my order. For anyone who has concerns about furnishings for tight spots. I don't see how you can do better and believe me, I researched A LOT before purchasing. Wishing your company continued success... you deserve it.
HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA -- This is a positive review and recommendation of Simplicity Sofas (www.simplicitysofas.com). I recently moved into an older house with narrow doorways, and my couch would not fit into the den where my family and I needed to use it. I search for days online for smaller sofas, and saw nothing that piqued my interest. Then, I spotted the website for Simplicity Sofas, coming out of High Point, NC (my home state!).
SS sells RTA (Ready to Assemble) Sofas. They come in 3 boxes, and no tools are needed to put them together. For most orders, they build the sofa after you place your order, and it takes about 4 weeks from start to finish. I needed the couch immediately, so I called and spoke with the president of the company, Jeff, about what sofas they had ready for immediate delivery. They had 3 sofas ready, and I selected a red one. It arrived 3 days later at my house.
I got the boxes into the room with no problem, and from that point it honestly took me about 12 minutes before the sofa was assembled. Even better, the sofa is attractive and comfortable (I have had more immediately comfortable sofas, but this is in no way an uncomfortable sofa. On the contrary, it feels sturdy, strong, and has plush cushions out of the box). I found the folks at Simplicity Sofa very easy to work with, and the quality of the sofa is top-notch. I would strongly recommend this company to anyone who has a tight-squeeze or small space in which to try to fit a sofa...
We did a major renovation of a lower lever family room and needed to begin furnishing the space. The problem was that we could not fit any regular sized sofa down the stairwell. I shopped for months online and in stores with tape measure in hand. But, nothing would make the turn of the stairwell. We were considering all sorts of other seating options, when I tumbled onto the Simplicity Sofas website. We realized that we had found the answer to the problem. The sofas are shipped in pieces, designed to fit through tight spaces. I was a bit worried about color, fabric and comfort, but the website made that easy.
They send swatches - a certain amount for free - so you can see what the fabric looks and feels like. Also, there were plenty of reviews of people saying how comfortable the furniture was. Also customer service was very quick and helpful with questions. The furniture took about a month to deliver - because they build it to your specifications - and was shipped on schedule. It is very beautiful furniture and very comfortable. I would definitely buy from this company again and refer them to other people.
After ordering a small sofa and ottoman from a large chain furniture store who promised delivery in 6 to 8 weeks, I cancelled the order after 13 weeks of nothing but excuses. I have recently purchased some property which has a 74 year old guest house on it and there is no way today's furniture will go up the narrow (and turning) staircase anyway. (I discovered this when we attempted to put a full-sized bed upstairs and had to remove a window to get it in.)
So I looked for "small furniture" online and the first company that popped up was Simplicity Sofas. The best part was that it comes in boxes - none wider than 12 inches with instructions on how to assemble the pieces but my husband had the whole sofa put together before I could open the instructions. He was impressed with how sturdy the sofa is and I am impressed with how comfortable and attractive it is. The company contacted me twice by email while they built my custom-ordered furniture.
It came in less than the 6 to 8 weeks they quoted me, cost less than the chain store furniture I had ordered previously (even with the hefty shipping fee) and I would order from Simplicity Sofas again in a heartbeat.
My thanks for this generous review. There is one inaccuracy, however. Simplicity Sofas quotes a 4 week production time, not 6-8 weeks as referenced. We have a 95% on time record.
HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA -- I ordered two sofas from Simplicity Sofas. The staff there answered all of my many questions, took a great deal of time explaining the differences in fabrics and helped me choose fabrics that would work with my lifestyle. (Teenager, with friends, 4 cats, and 2 dogs) My sofas arrived on time, the directions for putting them together were great, and I love my sofas. I can spot clean them in a short amount of time, or I can take the entire covering off and wash it. They have held up very well to all of the animals and use they get daily.
In the event that I would ever move, I can take my two sofas apart by myself, and move them instead of paying someone else to do it for me. I would buy from Simplicity again and recommend their furniture and the company!
HIGHPOINT, NORTH CAROLINA -- I just had the greatest experience with this company who designs and manufactures high quality modular furniture specifically for tight spaces. My new full size sofa is better than my expectations. It literally took me fifteen minutes to assemble. And it is in a room where no other full size would fit (the doorway is too narrow). It luxurious and exceptionally good looking. I got the spring down filled cushions with 100% cotton fabric. They guided me through the process, answered all my questions, went out of their way to address all my concerns. They were very patient. It arrived precisely when they said it would.

Interview: Brooke Burns Host of "The Chase"
She's been an actress in films like "Shallow Hal", a model, a TV star, and now she is the host of the hit game show "The Chase". Brooke Burns has done it all in this business and is really enjoying her time on the American version of the English trivia game show where contestants face off against "the beast". Brooke sat down and talked with us here at Movie Room Reviews about her life as a host, and what it takes to make a game show.
Nick Leyland From Movie Room Reviews: You're the host of the show "The Chase", which I just watched and I think it's really cool. I've never seen anything like it before.
Brooke Burns: Oh, cool!
MRR: It premiered its second season on November 5th, right? At 8:00 PM on GSN?
Brooke Burns: Yes, it did.
MRR: Yeah. So, do you think you could tell our audience a little bit about the show and what it's all about?
Brooke Burns: Yeah, absolutely. "The Chase" is a one hour trivia quiz show that they started in the UK, and they've been running for over six seasons there, they've shot over 600 episodes, which is pretty cool. And we brought the format over to America, or I should say ITV did, and we brought over, also the original "Chaser," as we call him, and his name is Mark Labbett, or "the beast," as he's known on the show. He's a British genius. He has three degrees from Oxford, Exeter and Glamorgan Universities, he's a math genius, and he has a near photographic memory. So basically, he plays against three American contestants in speed trivia rounds and also multiple choice trivia round for up to $250,000. That's it in a nutshell.
MRR: Did he get a degree in being on a game show?
Brooke Burns: Actually before he was on the show, he was a substitute math teacher, which I think is adorable, and he would be really intimidating to the kids because he's 6'7" and 370 pounds, and he has a beastly mind as well.
MRR: From what I saw, the asks some pretty ridiculous questions, with puns intended, I guess. What are some of your favorite questions that's asked on the show?
Brooke Burns: Wow! Obviously, there are so many. I like the questions where, as I'm going over them, I'll be like, "Oh, okay, that's cool, that's historical, that's scientific," and then sometimes you go, "Wow! Out of nowhere, did not know that." [chuckle] Silly ones, like Taylor Swift got more Grammies in one year than Elvis in his entire career; that was shocking and surprising to me. Little things like, I consider myself a spiritual person and I've done a lot of reading on Mother Teresa, but never had asked what her first name was, Agnes, in case you're wondering.
MRR: Oh wow!
Brooke Burns: Different things like that. It's a great show. That's I think a big reason that I love being a part of it is that, basically, they're paying me for a continued education, instead of the other way around.
MRR: Well, how much respect have you garnered for game show hosts from the past?
Brooke Burns: Oh. You know what, I've always had an enormous amount of respect for those guys. I did another show called "You Deserve It" that Chris Harrison hosted and just watching him in action is always amazing to me, because you are at once moving the game along, you have to hit certain beats, you have to hit certain rules, you have to hit certain cameras, you have to keep it all up in a certain amount of time, and then you have to keep it fresh and be listening to what the contestants are saying, and that's what makes every show different and unique is playing off the individual lives of the contestants. So, there's a lot going on, like running a circus.
MRR: That's what I was gonna ask you next is, can you give us an idea of what it takes to film a game show?
Brooke Burns: Yeah. Like I said, it's not unlike movie-making in that it's a collaboration. There's a lot of things going on behind the scenes. There's Video Village and, obviously, on the stage you've got the audience involved, the producers, the researchers trying to get all the questions fair, random, different levels of difficulty, all that kind of stuff that you have to get together. And then there's, on actual game day, as you would have it, the X factor of the unknown, which is all of these contestants have been tested, but it's very different being given a physical test, sitting in a room quietly by yourself, versus on a stage with lights, camera, pressure, "the beast" staring down at you, and money on the line. So, there's a lot that can go wrong, and when it goes right it's really fun and amazing, but when it goes wrong it can be stressful but invigorating, how about that?
MRR: Do you ever find it hard not to whisper the answer to the contestant if you know it?
Brooke Burns: No. I haven't really had the problem of actually doing that. Obviously, in my mind, because I'm on the contestants' side, I want them to win the money. I wish I could telepathically give it to them [laughter] sometimes to help them out with the cash. But the most difficult thing is when I know that they know it, but the time and the pressure have gotten to them and they just have a brain freeze.
MRR: Why do you think the world of America, or the world, in general loves game shows so much?
Brooke Burns: I think there's something to the old school family television viewing that takes us a little bit back to when game shows were really in the height of being popular with families because kids can watch them, grandparents can watch them, families can get together and watch them after dinner, and it allows you to do something together, and also they're interactive. They bring up great conservations when questions come up and people like to play along. So I think that that's sort of the pre Facebook, Twitter, all of the exciting things that we have now social media-wise in 2013. It's kind of the first format I think, where you could play along with television show and host an audience.
MRR: Now that you're the host, how does this differ from being a model or an actress?
Brooke Burns: I've always enjoyed different formats of working. I'm not new to the hosting, I'm new obviously to the quiz aspect of the show. I'm always looking for new challenges in that way, so I like to try new things. But hosting itself, to me, in some ways... It's funny, I think it's a kind of an individual preference. I think the hosting to me has come more naturally maybe even than the acting because I genuinely like people, and I'm competitive, and I like games. So that is easy for me because it's easy for me to engage with them and there's, I guess, no acting required.
My dad used to say when I was young that I was too sensitive and I talk too much, and I told him that now I get paid for both of those things as an actor and a host.
MRR: Now he probably doesn't care so much, huh?
Brooke Burns: Yeah, exactly.
MRR: Well what can we look forward to seeing from you in the future besides hosting "The Chase"?
Brooke Burns: I'm currently filming a little independent film in Kentucky, actually, called "Produce", which is about a young boy with Downs Syndrome. So that's the next thing that I'm kind of doing and then I'm gonna take a break and go have a wonderful Christmas with my family.
MRR: Good for you. So "The Chase" is gonna be on GSN on Tuesday nights at 8 PM, is that right?
Brooke Burns: That's correct.
MRR: Well, I'll just have to check it out, and I thank you so much for talking to me with me today. I really appreciate it Brooke and have a happy holiday season.
Brooke Burns: Yeah. Thanks. Thanks, you too. Happy Thanksgiving.

Named in tribute to designer Howard 'Bud' Kettler whose ubiquitous Courier graces computers the world over, Kettler is a simple monospaced font of two weights. Like its mentor, Kettler is a twelve-pitch monospaced font – 12 characters fit within 1 inch at 10 point size. But before visions of Steelcase desks, IBM Selectric typewriters, and 12-inch bubble monitors take you away, remember that Kettler is a decidedly 21st century font.
Built from a basic set of repeated ovals and stems, Kettler is a subtle blend of utilitarian slab serifs and modern curves. Allowing ample room for the exchange between black and white space, the slabs anchor the font to the baseline while the oval curves facilitate eye movement from one glyph to the next. The character fit is regular enough for clean page color and just wide enough to avoid the unseemly letter crashing common to monospaced fonts. As such, Kettler is ideal for tabular information (we've been using it for client invoicing since its release) but also equally comfortable pulling display and headline duty if the task requires.

A monospaced font is the most basic of typographic systems. Kettler uses one width for every character and because of that, no kerning is needed. Like we said, simple.

Bills think safety first at draft's end
The Buffalo Bills took the safety-in-numbers approach to the safety position on the third day of the NFL Draft.
Buffalo used both its fourth- and fifth-round selections Saturday on defensive backs, Nevada's Duke Williams and Clemson's Jonathan Meeks, respectively.
"They were the two best guys up there at the time we were picking," Bills General Manager Buddy Nix said. "Obviously we want to be prepared for whatever happens."
The last part of that quote is in regards to the team's ongoing negotiations with Pro Bowl safety Jairus Byrd. Buffalo used the franchise tag on Byrd earlier this offseason, but the player has yet to sign it. Byrd was the only player not to attend the team's recent voluntary workouts.
"You always want to have all your guys here, but we understand the situation, and we'll keep working through it," Bills President and CEO Russ Brandon said. "Obviously, [the franchise] tag is an asset that we have in our holster, and he has the opportunity to wait until he's comfortable. We'll continue that dialogue."
Brandon called re-signing Byrd a priority for the organization. Franchise players have until Week 10 of the regular season to sign or they become ineligible for the season.
The picks of Williams and Meeks add to a position that has Da'Norris Searcy penciled in as a starter, and also features recently converted cornerback Aaron Williams.
"The big thing about Duke is the fact that he can play more than one spot," Nix said. "Our coaches and everybody else thought he could be a nickel guy, maybe even an outside corner, and also a safety.
"Now Meeks is a safety. He's a big guy who can run. He's a center-field guy."
For the second straight day, the Bills did not shy away from a player with off-the-field issues. Like their second-round selection, Oregon linebacker Kiko Alonso, Williams has had issues related to alcohol.
He was suspended multiple times as a freshman after being cited for underage alcohol possession, being involved in a theft and taking part in a fight that left one of his teammates in the hospital. He was also arrested in 2011 for driving with a suspended license and without insurance after an auto accident.
"I went through some ups and downs through my college career," he said. "I had a few minor incidents that occurred. I got suspended for a few games and it's something you learn from as a person growing up. One thing I'll say is I became a better person from those mistakes I made."
Nix said the Bills did their due diligence in researching Williams' past and were satisfied at what they found.
"Most of it was, like a lot of things, bad judgment," he said. "The thing about him, football means a lot to him. … When you start to take something away from him as important as football, they straighten up. I think that's what they did with him and the last couple years, he's been a model citizen and good player."
Williams, 5-foot-11 and 201 pounds, started 38 games at Nevada. The Bills had him clocked in the range of 4.4 seconds in the 40-yard dash. He's known as a solid tackler who fits what the Bills want to do defensively in that he's versatile.
"You can slide him inside in nickel as well as playing in the deep secondary. I think there are a lot of things you can do with this kid," said Bills scout Brad Forsyth.
The Bills sang a similar tune about Meeks' versatility.
"I think he can be a strong safety or a free safety. I think he's got good size. He's got a good 40 time," said national scout Darrell Moody. "I think he can be explosive. His stats are probably not as good as some other people because of the system that they played at Clemson. He was more of a free safety than a strong safety because the other safety didn't run real well. … He wasn't around a whole lot of plays. You had to look at a lot of film to see him around a lot of plays. I think he has tremendous upside and when he did have a chance to hit people, he hit people."
Meeks, who was not invited to the NFL Scouting Combine, flew under the radar of most national draft analysts. ESPN rated Meeks as the 36th-best available safety in the draft.
"They say the draft is definitely not the end, it's the beginning and I haven't been able to express that the chip is still on my shoulder," Meeks said. "Things happen for a reason so that's just going to make me more hungry as a player and as a person."
Meeks is from Rock Hill, S.C., the same hometown of Bills cornerback Stephon Gilmore.
"That's one of my real good friends," Meeks said. "We grew up competing against each other throughout high school and college and we kept our relationship when he went to the NFL."

QUETTA, Pakistan (AP) — Pakistani Shiites buried their kin killed in a massive bombing last weekend in the southwestern city of Quetta but the funeral on Wednesday was marred by gunfire as both protesters and police fired into the air.
Shiite Muslims have increasingly come under attack in this Sunni Muslim-dominated country where many extremists do not consider them to be true Muslims.
After Saturday's bombing killed 89 people — the second mass-casualty assault on Shiites in Quetta in as many months — Pakistani Shiites refused to bury their dead for three days and demanded government action. The tension evident at the funeral suggested that recent government attempts to address the problem may not be enough to appease them.
Mourners on Wednesday lowered the bodies of 89 of the victims, wrapped in white cloth, into a long line of graves dug out at the local Shiite cemetery in Quetta.
But a group of about 100 female relatives of the deceased tried to halt the funeral because they felt the government still hadn't met their demands, namely that the army lead an operation against militant groups responsible for the attacks.
The melee escalated as the women then tried to block a main highway close to the graveyard, said Shiite community leader Qayum Changezi. Angry relatives of the deceased pelted police and government officials with stones, Changezi also said.
Both police and relatives fired into the air — the relatives in anger and the police to disperse the crowd — said police officer Fayaz Sumbal.
Mourners scattered after the gunfire but the burial continued after the protest died down.
"We had refused to bury our dear ones with a hope that the government will take concrete steps by arresting the killers, but so far no attacker has been arrested," said Mohammed Mahdi, 16, who lost his father in the bombing. He said he now fears for his family's safety.
There's been no indication that the army would take control of the city, another longtime demand of protesters. But the government announced on Monday that paramilitary forces began an operation against the anti-Shiite militant group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, which claimed responsibility for Saturday night's blast, and other militant groups.
The government also replaced the top police officer in Baluchistan on Tuesday. And Fayaz Sumbal, deputy police chief in Quetta has also been ordered to replace the chief of police operations in Quetta.
Shiites and human rights groups have criticized police and paramilitary forces under control of the Interior Ministry in Quetta for failing to protect the minority sect, which comprises up to 20 percent of the country's population of 180 million.
They link the authorities' apparent apathy by pointing to past connections between the country's military and anti-Shiite militants, and also allege that the militants are seen as less of a threat than the Taliban because they are not targeting the state. Political parties have also relied on banned sectarian groups to deliver votes in elections.
It remains to be seen what impact the government's recent actions will have on the problem of sectarian violence in Quetta. Suspected militants are notoriously difficult to prosecute in Pakistan, and it's unclear if the operation against Lashkar-e-Jhangvi and others will be sustained.
Last month, 86 Shiite Muslims in Quetta were killed in a major attack that eventually led the country's prime minister to sack the chief minister of Baluchistan province and his cabinet. But Saturday's attack showed that militants were still a potent force in the province.
Pakistan has launched numerous military operations against militants in recent years, but the focus has been on the Pakistani Taliban, who are waging a bloody insurgency against the state that has killed thousands of people.
Radical Sunni militants have stepped up attacks against Shiites over the past year, and violence has been especially bad in Baluchistan. In the first two months of the year, more Shiites have been killed there than in all of last year.
Meanwhile, a vehicle carrying a Sunni Muslim leader struck a roadside bomb Wednesday in a remote village of the southern Sindh province bordering Baluchistan. The blast killed the leader and wounded some of his guards, local police official Ghulam Mohammed said.
He identified the slain man as Syed Shafiq Ahemd, the grandson of a prominent spiritual leader, Ghulam Hussain Shah, who has hundreds of thousands of followers in the region. No one claimed responsibility for the bombing and police said they were investigating.
Associated Press writers Rebecca Santana in Islamabad and Adil Jawad in Karachi, Pakistan, contributed to this report.

Basically to convince that ghost/spirit are real.
There are lots of paranormal podcasts, where authors of books about ghosts are giving their arguements of why they believe ghosts/spirits are real. The Ghost Chronicles podcasts in this forum are a good start. Spooky Southcoast, Toginet, and Darkness Radio also offer lots of interesting interviews.
What you can do before you start to write your speech is to make a list of the standard arguments you hear against ghosts. You use this list to create the points that you want to present. In essence you are addressing all of the usual arguments before they are presented.
When you have written a speech, you should say it out loud to someone or your pet so that you can hear it spoken. You'll find the awkward stuff, believe me, and get out most of the "and um's" that can destroy a good speech.
Who owns the land? Only the land knows. We mortals are passersby, and our lives are but a brief moment in the great span of time and space. We are born, we live out our lives, and most of us do the best we can with it, but the wind is forever, and the rivers flow forever to the sea, and all the seasons of the weathers will come and go after we are gone. But the Earth endures, the Earth is eternal" - Earl Hamner

This makes for a writers great study material.
Celebrating Banned Books Week,
September 30th-October 6th
Banned Books Week is currently celebrating its 30th anniversary! "Celebrating the freedom to read," this annual event aims to raise awareness for the works of literature that are frequently challenged by and even banned from communities across the country.
Did you know that some of the best works of all time, and very often the ones you'll have studied in school, have at one time or another been censored from the public? Did you know that the practice of censorship in literature still goes on today?
Yup, somewhere out there, a blinkered individual could actually be pondering at this very moment the dangers of a mind raised on an "occultist" story like Bridge to Terabithia, while someone of the same mindset argues that the bildungsroman The Perks of Being a Wallflower is "unsuited to a teenage audience." Seriously.
And it's not all

My time as a Kraft Tastemaker has really allowed me to explore some of our family favorite recipes surrounding so many different seasons and holidays. I'm about to let you in on a true gem of a recipe that everyone in my family loves and comes to expect around Christmas. Just a quick word of caution, your kids and husband will be sneaking these out of the fridge so place them on the highest rack!
If you've been following here for any length of time then you know how fond I am of chocolate. Now, don't go thinking that everyone is a chocolate lover because many of my dearest friends could do without it, but when you combine chocolate with peanut butter there is just something about it that even those who are not such great fans of that yummy goodness that is chocolate will love.
This recipe, while simple, can become tedious but I have found that if you have a diligent helper, a little Christmas music and a cup of coffee you will be good to go! Not to mention, this recipe can feed the masses of a Christmas party (or just the Carter crew).
Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls Recipe
Prep Time: 1 hour • Cook Time: 0 minutes • Serves: Approximately 50
1 ½ cups of PLANTERS Peanut Butter (creamy or crunchy)
2 sticks of butter softened
6 cups powdered sugar
1 (12 oz.) bag BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks
1 (12 oz.) bag dark or milk chocolate chunks or chips
¼ of a bar of paraffin wax finely shaved (TIP: Find this in the canning section and use a potato peeler to shave it)
MIX together the peanut butter, butter, and powdered sugar until well blended.
ROLL into 1 inch balls and place on wax or parchment paper. Place finished balls in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
MELT the BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks, dark or milk chocolate and paraffin wax down in a double boiler. If you do not have a double boiler you can always use a small metal bowl over a pot.
USING a toothpick, dip the balls into the chocolate leaving a portion of the top exposed. Drop onto wax or parchment paper. Let stand or refrigerate until the chocolate hardens.

AMSTERDAM (AP) — KLM says the company will cancel its flights to Iran as of April, leaving Germany's Lufthansa as the sole Western European-based carrier offering services to Tehran.
Turkish Airlines, which has its headquarters in Istanbul on the European side of The Bosphorus, also flies to Iran.
Spokesman Joost Ruempol of KLM, a subsidiary of Air France-KLM, said Saturday the decision to end the Amsterdam-Tehran route was made for economic, not political reasons.
KLM will continue selling tickets until the end of March.
As part of a review of routes, KLM is also halting service to Addis Ababa in Ethiopia and Khartoum, Sudan.

The (Family) Tree of Knowledge
When I was a few months into my pregnancy and feeling alone, I came across this quote by Harriet Lerner:
"We are never the first in our family to wrestle with a problem, although it may feel that way. . . . Learning how other family members have handled their problems similar to our own down through the generations, is one of the most effective routes to lowering reactivity and heightening self-clarity."
I thought, "Yeah, right. Who does this happen to? No one else in my family has been abandoned three months into a planned pregnancy."
I kept reading:
"If we do not know about our own family history, we are more likely to repeat past patterns or mindlessly rebel against them, without much clarity about who we really are, how we are similar to and different from other family members, and how we might best proceed in our own life." [1]
Since I was already passionate about genealogy and family history (I am president of a personal history company), I decided to test out this idea. I re-examined my family tree to see if I had overlooked any single mothers and to find out what, if anything, I could learn from them.
To my great surprise, there were more than a few, and the details of their stories left me in awe. For the purpose of brevity, I will share only two here:
The first was my great-grandmother, Ellen. She lived for a time in the Mormon Mexican Colonies (which explains my affinity for Mexico). She had four daughters with her husband, but after the fourth was born, he accused Ellen of cheating on him. He said that Violet was not his child. With this announcement, he left her and moved back to the United States.
Things in Mexico at this time (early 1900s) were tense. Pancho Villa, the revolutionary general in Chihuahua, was suspicious of the white Mormon settlers. According to the colony's history, he threatened to kill the white people if they did not leave. So Ellen and her four daughters, and the rest of their colony, fled Mexico on foot after only a few days' notice. Ellen returned to her parents' home in Cedar City, Utah, and lived with her family. Sometime later, she was reunited with her childhood sweetheart, married him, and had four sons—one of which is my grandfather.
The next story is from my father's side. My father was adopted by his stepfather (meaning my grandmother was a single mom for a while, too), and I had been trying to track his biological father's line for some time. A few years before, I had already discovered the big surprise—I (with naturally blonde hair and freckles) am of slave ancestry (which explains my love for African American heritage). I found Maria Johns, my third-great-grandmother, in an 1860 census that listed her as a single black woman living with her young mulatto daughter in a small town in western Pennsylvania. Maria's occupation was "washer woman," and she was listed as owning property.
If your hair isn't already blown back, here are a few more details. Maria was born in Virginia, so she was almost certainly born into slavery. Her child was mulatto, and she was never married, so I can only speculate about what master may have impregnated her and whether she was willing. I can only speculate about how she escaped or earned her freedom. But I do know that 1860 was pre–Emancipation Proclamation, and it was a time when even white women rarely owned property.
What this tells me about Maria Johns is that she was awesome.
I found a few clues and rumors that indicate that Maria was a Quaker, which I believe; Quakers lived in her area of Pennsylvania and were the only group that would be accepting enough to embrace a black woman in their community and let her own property.
After learning these stories about my ancestors, I felt much less alone. I felt connected to and inspired by these powerful women. I looked to what Ellen and Maria (and others I found) did in their times of trial, and I saw that those who turned to their family and their faith were the most successful. I knew I would be wise to do the same.
By meditating on these and other strong women in my life stream, I felt them draw nearer to me. They helped me and lifted me up. When my daughter was born, I felt them all surrounding me—my mother, my grandmother, Ellen, Maria, and many more I didn't even know, but who knew me and knew my daughter.
This was the first time I had really applied what my ancestors' stories taught me.Since then, during each major struggle in my life, I consult my family history to see what I can learn. The results continue to amaze and humble me.

Supplies - Cardstock: Bazzill; Patterned paper: Fancy Pants; Chipboard alphabet: American Crafts; Alphabet stickers: Authentique; Foam alphabet: American Crafts; Word stickers: Making Memories: Embroidery floss: DMC; Heart punches: Martha Stewart and Recollections; Acrylic letters: unknown; Paint: Ranger
One day after school in our backyard Drew said, "Look Mom! I can make letters with my hands!" as he started randomly forming the alphabet. "Wait! That means I can make whole words with my hands!" he said with so much excitement you would have thought it was Christmas "What word should I do? I know! I know!" I watched the cute concentration expressed on his face as he slowly spelled L-O-V-E. He later told me that the word "love" was his favorite and that is why he wanted to spell it. I think it might have had something to do with his crush at school.
What better way to accent those pictures than lots of hearts!
I used two different sizes of heart punches and arranged the hearts in small lines all over the page. I added a hand stitched line down the middle of each line of hearts. The general idea of it came from the February add-on sketch at Sketch Support. In a few random places I also added a small word sticker, one of my favorite go-to embellishments.
I thought Drew did an excellent job spelling the word out with his hands but I wanted there to be no doubt, by looking at the pictures, of what he was spelling. To help enhance each letter shape I added clear acrylic letters on top of his hands.
Clear was perfect because I didn't want the letter to completely cover his hands. I still wanted the clear letter to stand out though so I edged them with white paint. It was just enough to make them stand out without taking away from his crafty hand letters.
I'm thinking this spelling with your hands thing might be a great tool for helping Drew study for his spelling tests at school! Fun and educational!

Radford University spells 'Virginia' incorrectly on diplomas
RADFORD, Va. (AP) - Hundreds of Radford University graduates have received diplomas that had Virginia spelled incorrectly.
The school acknowledged Tuesday that both undergraduate and graduate students who graduated in the fall of 2012 and spring of 2013 received the marred diplomas. More than 1,400 students received the erroneous diplomas.
University spokesman Joe Carpenter says the error was caused when an employee retyped the narrative on the diploma after the software that produces them was upgraded in 2012. The third "I'' was missing from "Virginia."
Carpenter says corrected diplomas will be mailed to graduates as soon as possible. He says the school regrets the error.

Corr Jute
Corr Jute empowers destitute, rural women in Bangladesh through handicraft production. The women artisans, who are mostly illiterate, make beautiful handicrafts with local materials during free time between household activities. Corr Jute not only creates market access, but also provides job training and develops leadership skills. The women are able to supplement their marginal family income, contributing towards better living conditions.

Female artisans at Corr Jute in Bangladesh use a braiding technique to create handmade goods such as the reusable and versatile bags that we carry. The women use a jute fiber, which is a golden, silky, and natural fiber. They braid the fiber and then wrap and sew the rope in order to give it a form. Jute grows well in Bangladesh because of the low land and monsoon weather. The jute material is planted and harvested, and it is a natural regenerator for soil through the nitrogen bulbs in the plant's roots. The production process varies based on the size of the goods the artisans are creating as well as the complexity. This traditional technique has been followed for thousands of years while being passed down through different generations of women, and it's unique to the community. The women working with Corr Jute are in cooperative groups in rural Bangladesh. The jute craft has positively impacted these women's lives and has provided them with job opportunities.

Sitting on the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh shares its borders with India, Nepal and Burma. With a population of 152 million, Bangladesh is the world's 8th most populated country. It is also a very densely populated country, with a poverty rate of 31.5%. After 15 years under military rule, democracy was restored in Bangladesh in 1990, however the political scene remains volatile. Girls now outnumber boys in primary schools because of effective education policy that has been implemented. Yet, Bangladesh has the highest rate of marriage in the world for girls under 15. In 2013, thousands of workers were killed when the Rana Plaza building collapsed, which has led to some progress in ensuring better safety regulations in garment factories.

Kristina Taylor | Staff Writer
On the eve of the release of the BCS Standings, there was plenty of action, unpredictability and excitement in week seven of the college football season. Fans all over the country were treated to a thrilling weekend of football. The polls shifted once again, and it seems even more dangerous to be ranked in the top five as No. 3 and No. 4 fell for the second consecutive week.
No. 8 LSU 23, No. 3 South Carolina 21
Coming off its first loss of the season, LSU found its stroke on offense against a rugged South Carolina defense. The Tigers didn't do much with style, but the team from the Bayou looked more like the physical, grind-it-out team that made it to the BCS National Championship Game last year. Freshman running back Jeremy Hill led the way, breaking off a 50-yard TD run with 5:03 left in the fourth quarter that proved the game winner.
No. 7 Notre Dame 20, No. 17 Stanford 13 (OT)
After three years of being pushed around by Stanford, Notre Dame finally pushed back, winning perhaps one of the most important physical matchups they have played in all season. The Fighting Irish used a crucial goal line stand in overtime to reach 6-0 for the first time since 2002. Stanford's Stepfan Taylor was denied the end zone four straight times from inside the 5-yard line and on fourth-and-goal, a wall of Notre Dame defenders stopped Taylor inches from scoring.
No. 10 Oklahoma 63, No. 15 Texas 21
Bob Stoops improved to 9-5 against Mack Brown and the Longhorns. Stoops is now responsible for three of Oklahoma's five most lopsided wins over Texas in the Red River Rivalry. Landry Jones threw for 321 yards and two touchdowns, while fullback Trey Millard had a career-high 119 receiving yards as Oklahoma trounced Texas 63-21 to win their third straight in the series.
No. 21 Texas A&M 59, No. 24 Louisiana Tech 57
Texas A&M scored the first 27 points against Louisiana Tech, but even that wasn't enough to hold off the fast-paced Bulldog offense. Tech entered the game averaging 53 points a game, third most in the country. In the first half, they looked nothing like the team that had been doing that kind of offensive damage. But in the second half the Bulldogs mounted a furious rally attempt capped by a 13-yard touchdown reception by Ray Holley. With 38 seconds remaining, Tech attempted a two point conversion to tie, but the Aggie defense held their ground. Texas A&M quarterback Johnny "Football" Manzie threw for an impressive six touchdowns as the Aggies handed Louisiana Tech its first loss of the season.
The second half of the college football season is officially well underway as the first BCS Standings were released this week. As expected, Alabama debuted as No. 1, with Florida, Oregon, Kansas State and Notre Dame rounding out the top five.
The game to keep your eye on this upcoming weekend is No. 2 Florida hosting No. 7 South Carolina in a key SEC East matchup. The Gators look to show they deserve to be No.2 and make a bigger statement against the Gamecocks who are looking to rebound off of a loss to LSU in Baton Rouge. It should be another defensive battle in the Swamp.
