September 4, 2014
Since his movie career has taken off thanks to the success of Guardians of the Galaxy, the widespread belief in the industry is that Batista is unlikely to return to WWE beyond a special appearance. During a recent interview, the former world heavyweight champion hinted that he would be a bit more inclined to return if management gave him more creative control over his character and story line.
September 2, 2014
Due to his new found success in Hollywood, Batista is said to be holding all the cards when it comes to his career with WWE. Guardians of the Galaxy did extremely well, so he does not feel the need to return to professional wrestling. Rumors have surfaced that the former world heavyweight champion would only be interested in doing another match if it meant that he would receive a huge pay day at Wrestlemania 31.
August 31, 2014
Initially, the belief was that Batista would make a return to WWE after he was done promoting Guardians of the Galaxy. However, reports are now surfacing that he could be completely done with professional wrestling. The belief is that the movie studios are against the idea of him risking injuries by being an in ring performer again. Batista could have no choice but to comply since he wants his career in Hollywood to keep growing.
August 26, 2014

August 23, 2014
Hulk Hogan has a knack for drawing attention. That's why he has made millions of dollars in his career.

August 21, 2014
Another speed bump has presented itself in the career of Shelton Benjamin. The former Intercontinental Champion has suffered a serious knee injury while working in Japan.

August 17, 2014
There's a little battle brewing right now between two of the greatest WWE stars of all time. Recently, Steve Austin stated that he was the best draw that the business has ever seen. When asked about the statement, Hulk Hogan argued that he was the best by stating that his career was twice as long as the one Austin had. This does not appear to be a promotional thing since the two of them will not be doing a match together.
August 15, 2014
It looks like Santino Marella isn't quite ready to give up on his in ring career just yet. The former Intercontinental Champion stated that he will be undergoing surgery to repair his neck.

He did not mention WWE specifically, but the belief is that the company has left the door open for him.

April 28, 2014

The boring gimmick that Lance Storm received while working in WWE was actually a little jab at internet wrestling fans. Many viewed him as a guy that was just too boring to be a star.

I made this dress for my a friend of mine and I used the Zoe pattern as the base. The front has two small panels (yoke) at the top and I moved the dart to face the top and gathered it. Also, I added buttons. In the back I put elastic at the top because otherwise it was too baggy, and i also put ties at the waist! The skirt is gathered instead of the big pleat/fold thingy.
The pictures were when we were preparing for a play at school

One of the hottest debates i the NBA is the subject of teams tanking in order to get a better draft pick in any given year. We've seen over the course of NBA history that sometimes when a team tanks, it lands them guys like Derrick Rose, Tim Duncan and LeBron James. But tanking has as many negative effects as it does potential positives ones, and NBA analyst Jeff Van Gundy is not a fan of the method.
The Eastern Conference is absolutely terrible this year and hasn't been as dominant as the west in years. Van Gundy believes this is because a majority of the conference is tanking, something the says is hurting the game.
"It doesn't necessarily mean the guys on the floor aren't trying hard, but it means teams have put some really bad rosters on the floor … I've never seen the discrepancy (in talent) like it is in the East," Van Gundy said. "It's as bad as it gets."
The playing field is far from level thanks to tanking, which has become so accepted that Chad Ford even has a 'Tank Rank' to counter his weekly power rankings in the NBA. Van Gundy isn't wrong in saying it hurts the game, but it's not likely to change anytime soon.

I made one batch of this recipe as written and one without the jalapeno and with only 1/8 tsp red pepper. They were both superb. This recipe makes a medium salsa that is both sweet and spicy, and the mild version was great for the kids. People who don't care for mangoes still loved the salsa, and it was the perfect compliment to Mango Macadamia Chicken. It tastes great on chips too. Tip: I had never cooked with mangoes, and I had some trouble selecting ripe ones and dicing them (cut them kinda like a pineapple). If you're not familiar with mangoes, this article may be helpful: http://homecooking.about.com/od/howtocookbasics/ss/cutmango.htm

Now that I really think about it. Doujinshi where the guy cheats on the girl isn't tagged as NTR, but the ones where the girl cheats on the guy, THEN its NTR. I'm a bro myself but the concept of bias and unregistered works that are improperly tagged shows a lack of dedication and cohesiveness of the fan base.
Anraex23 (Mon Jun 20, 2011, 7:38 pm) +1 points
There should be a cheating tag. Would clear up a lot. NTR is forceful stealing, cheating is just screwing someone besides your significant other.
iruvhentai (Mon Jun 20, 2011, 6:20 pm) +1 points
the thing is, NTR stands for netorare, which means cuckold in english. a cuckold is a husband whose wife is unfaithful, and not the other way around.
iruvhentai (Tue Jun 21, 2011, 3:49 am) +1 points
ah, nevermind then. seems like i mistook the actual meaning. my mistake.
ackeejag (Mon Jun 20, 2011, 9:42 pm) +1 points
Actually netorare 寝取られ(取る=to take) is the act of STEALING another man's woman. Doesn't count if the woman goes around looking for another dick. Cuckold is sometimes the woman being a bitch and looking for another man but it always involved the obvious jealousy of her more innocent partner.
Netorare is something like the alpha/beta type situation where the big jock jumps into your vanilla day dream and whips out a huge monster dick then the girl of your dreams becomes his cock slave. It's supposed to make you jealous of the antagonist by putting yourself in the place of the protagonist.
They're right. It would be better if this had a cheating tag, but no such tag exists. Complain to Jacob and maybe we can get one to clear this up.

Its not just the "fan base" its humanity as a whole. It goes for me too, although I've never cheated before and don't condone it in real life, it doesn't bother me when a guy cheats on his girl in fiction. But because it's a girl cheating on her guy, it's different, we the reader identify with the male lead and picture the girl as a girlfriend and therefore it induces rage especially if the writing is made where it induces said rage. If you look at shoujo and josei mangas, a guy cheating on the girl is the rage inducer, it's all about target audience.
arkangelzid (Mon Jun 20, 2011, 3:26 pm) +1 points
Again here is, NTR and cheating has a diferent attribute, NTR make you feel rage and want revenge or beat the guy, Cheating dont make you feel bad commonly because the boyfriend or husband kinda deserve it. that is the greatest diference.
Nov11beltwhipper (Mon Jun 20, 2011, 3:38 pm) +1 points
You can't make a strict definition based on feelings. Feelings are partial to the ones feeling it. Some people feel this is cheating regardless if it's made in a funny light. I happen to be in a minor camp that believes cheating is cheating, no matter the superficial circumstance. I understand your point of view, but how can someone, any one for that matter justify cheating whether the person being cheated on deserved it or not? Wouldn't everyone believe they are the victim and not the instigator?
arkangelzid (Mon Jun 20, 2011, 4:44 pm) +1 points
In mexico there are a proverb "We have to watch out the ranch if we dont want it to be stoled". And I was in NTR lovers circle discuting why they love it, and basically that is the rule, is mainly sadist and machosist in another level. Is really complex but what i write before resume it. Cheating tag is usually in woman or men that cheat on becuase really dont love their parnerts or feel frustrated about them sexualy sometimes this ended with a divorce and marrying the new lover, ocasionally they stay marry for convenience. NTR always let you with rage or a strong negative feeling.

lol the ending... still how that husband marry a sexy woman o.o. I think she loves more the guy than her husband but he still too young, this is a tipical divorce situation in real life.

In The Works: Embraer Phenom 100
Early last month Embraer announced it cut the first metal for its Phenom 100 very light jet. The part–a fuselage component that connects to the engine pylon–was milled from a block of aluminum at the company's main plant in São José dos Campos, Brazil.
"We are pleased to announce the first metal cut of the first Phenom 100, a landmark event for the program," said Luís Carlos Affonso, senior vice president of executive jets. "This achievement is solid proof of Embraer's focus and commitment to the Phenom program and to delivering a revolutionary jet."
According to Embraer, the main structure of the Phenom 100, and the larger Phenom 300 derivative, will be built from aluminum alloy and the secondary surfaces from composite materials, contributing significantly to the light weight of the aircraft. Final assembly, interior completion, painting and flight-testing of the Phenom jets will take place at Embraer's Gavião Peixoto facility.
The first Phenom 100 is scheduled to fly in the middle of next year, with certification and entry into service planned for mid-2008. As of June 1, the price of the eight-seat, 1,160-nm (four occupants) very light twinjet increased to $2.85 million from $2.75 million. Embraer plans to disclose its Phenom 100 order book early this month, which will include the previously announced order for 50 of the small jets, with an option for 50 more, from European air-taxi start-up JetBird.

Some days we are designers and ringleaders... some days we are mediators and mentors... and some days we are just your friend, but, every day we are passionate about events. We work hard, laugh often, and love coming to work every day. Come meet our team!
We draw upon our diverse backgrounds and find common ground in our interests when creating and collaborating... the result is a blend of ideas and experience that produces truly remarkable events.
- Lynn Easton Andrews
A graduate of Barnard College at Columbia University, Lynn began her career in network television in New York City, working as an associate producer and producer for NBC (The Home Show), ABC (Good Morning America) and CNN News. After relocating to Charlottesville in 1989, Lynn began planning major corporate and social events and shortly thereafter founded Easton Events, a natural transition from her television production experience.
As Founder of Easton Events, Lynn directs all business operations and is the lead contact and designer for all major events contracted by the firm. During the past twelve years, she has produced important events for many Fortune 500 corporations, non-profit organizations, and top-level social clients, including Abbott Laboratories, Merrill Lynch, The Citigroup Private Bank, Smith Barney, American Express, DaimlerChrysler, and the Massey Cancer Center at Virginia Commonwealth University. She has staged events in New York, Los Angeles, Washington, DC, and Palm Beach and internationally in Mexico, Italy, and the United Kingdom. Lynn's expertise is in orchestrating "high-touch" events that require the maximum attention to detail for demanding clients at the highest levels of corporate, charitable, and social America.
Lynn's most recent venture has been the opening of Pippin Hill Farm and Vineyards with her husband Dean Andrews. Together they have built a boutique winery and a premiere event venue.
Before becoming a critical member of the Easton Events team, she worked in fashion for the renowned designer, Lela Rose, and later in development and special events with Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. With an inherent love for all things design and style paired with creative energy, extreme organization, and a drive for perfection, Augusta has found her home with Easton Events. Her design-oriented focus, enthusiasm, and superb management skills make her an invaluable asset to our clients. Augusta has executed over 40 weddings, private social events, and executive level corporate programs for Eli Lilly, Altria, PNC Bank, and National Fuel to name a few. Augusta is our printed material guru!
Lauren graduated from Duke University with a focus in Marketing, Management and Art History. She has worked in the non-profit events world in DC before using her creative skills and great attention to detail as a Washington DC event and wedding planner for the last four years; she has executed dozens of weddings and corporate events in DC. Most recently, she planned her own wedding with Easton Events (and she even took the power outage the entire day of the wedding in stride!) Lauren's enthusiasm, calm, perceptive organizational skills, and passion for design and aesthetics make her an essential addition to the Easton Team. She is our details connoisseur!
Before joining Easton Events, Taz led the event team at our sister property, Pippin Hill Farm & Vineyards, as Director of Sales for two years. Brilliantly planning and executing over 40 weddings a year, Taz served as the essential point of contact from the initial planning stages to the day of execution. With a passion for elegance and beauty, coupled with a calm demeanor and unyielding work ethic, we knew Taz would be an essential asset to our Easton team.
With over fifteen impactful years in the hospitality and meetings management industry, Amy spent the last decade crisscrossing North America as a Travel Director with companies including Easton Events, Planning the Globe, Pacific Communications, and BB&T, managing travel logistics and events for high-touch / high-profile clients and their guests. Prior, Amy was engaged for six years at Charleston Place, an Orient-Express Hotel, as catering and special events manager. Amy specializes in the small details... finds solutions to any challenge... and excels at being calm under pressure.
An administrative professional with over 30 years of experience in accounting and data management, Charlotte Drummond keeps Easton's many valuable vendors happy and our financial picture in sharp focus. With a BA in Social Work from UNC-Charlotte in 1977 and many years in database development, she also supports the Easton team with custom-designed data systems to track every step and item involved in planning and launching each event. Easton's databases are essential to our ability to manage every detail so the client remains our highest priority.
Charlotte has been with Easton Events since 2007 and came to us by way of Washington, DC, Palo Alto, CA, and the United Kingdom where, variously, she managed a financial services firm, subscription services for an international medical publication, women's shelters, and an American restaurant in London, among other ventures. Charlotte keeps us sane!

Montreal, Quebec
Metro: Mont-Royal
Bus: STM 11, 30, 97, 427
Visit: September 24, 2011
If you read yesterday's post, you'll notice that now did 2 different sandwiches on the same day within mere hours of each other. Lately, I've been looking for every kind of gimmick sandwich possible. Since Subway has been advertising their bacon steak sandwich hardcore, so that compelled me to make this another priority.
705 Sainte-Catherine O.
Eaton Center
Montreal, Quebec
Metro: McGill
Bus: STM 15, 24, 61, 107, 125, 168, 420, 715
Visit: June 14, 2011
I know what you're thinking, why Subway. I'll tell you why. Subway has been my go-to "fast food" restaurant since at least 2000. I have rarely ever been disappointed by my many visits to this place.
Wrapped Sub
Turkey Sub
Tried: June 14, 2011
This sub contains lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, olives, cheddar, and turkey all on fine herb cheese baked bread with house sauce.
This is my optimal choice when I order at Subway. I was devastated when they no longer had the Italian Special bread, but I quickly came to know the fine herb bread. This is one of the few times a year when I eat turkey. I think, for me, it's the only tolerable way to put turkey in my mouth. At one point in my life, the 12 inch sub was just enough for the large person like me. But, thanks to some recent weight loss, the amount of food in this sub was now too much for me. But, I'll say, the taste always keeps me happy. I know Subway isn't everyone's taste, but it's mine.
Turkey Sub (Half)
Ice Tea
Why not?

InvocationSpeak through me, Muse, and sing me the taleOf that girl unskilled in the ways of the world--The intrepid wanderer,Seeking truth for years on end,Oblivious to the dynamics around herAs others talk with their eyes and dance with their words.Many the nights she's lain awake,Living the hurts of her friends, powerless to help.Trying to save the worldWhen she can't even save herself.She wrote dark storms of wordsAnd ascertained the deceptive nature of journals.She lied to others and she lied to herself.She learned that sharp words leave scars,Struggling each day to open her eyesAnd walk toward the light;Yet despite her best intentions, sometimes she strayed:But hands were there to guide her back to the path,And hearts were there to share her pain.Growing and changing and coming to seeThat she didn't have to understand humanity to be human--She doesn't have to earn love to be loved,And angels can hide in the oddest of places.Of these trials and tribulatio
BipolarYour gentle gaze like razor bladesBoth cut me to the coreThe shadows hide the lines you've crossedYet still I'm craving moreYou're never who you seem to beI don't know who you areOne moment you're the one I knowThe next so very farThis dream in which we used to liveUncertain now and bleakBreathtaking as the cloudbreak isStill havoc storms do wreakMy wild nightmare never endsI cannot seem to wakeI'm desperate to find escapeBefore I finally breakIt's not you it's me I sayAs hollow as it ringsNo longer can I weather thisHigh time to test my wingsThe words fall like an icy rainChilling, sharp, but trueYet though I try to end it hereI'm still falling for you
All that glittershoards her words like gemsshiny baubles filled with lighttoo precious to share?
NightmarePlot twist: you can't wake up.
An Easter memoryImagine the approaching dawn of a crisp spring day, its buttery heat bringing the frosted landscape to life. An Easter morning in the not-too-long-ago past. Consider the cool white kitchen of a nondescript house in the suburbs. Spindly rays of light pierce the ashy cloud cover, casting a faint glow on the dingy walls opposite the glass-paned windows. A sturdy wooden table is its main feature; placidly set upon a dingy linoleum floor, its mismatched chairs bear testament to the whims of its owners. Just today the thermostat was, after much coercion, turned up.Someone is peeking around the banister at the foot of the stairs. He is wearing green footie pajamas and his chocolate hair is tousled with sleep. He has that slightly gawky look of a child in a growth spurt, like a colt--not quite used to the extraordinary length of his legs, not quite caught up in the rest of his body--but his round face betrays him with its anticipatory expression. His eyes are sharp and blue. After a moment
VacancyLife has kept goingWithout your presence in itOn the outsideIt all seems the sameBut inside meThere is a vacancyA room meant just for youLetting my thoughts wanderThey travel past your roomAnd I can only thinkA single phraseTu me manquesI miss you
I WonderWill I ever tell you, I wonder,How you make me feel?It's doubtful at bestFor I don't even knowWho you areI may have cluesBut do I really want to know?Yes, of course I doJust the thought of youPassing through my mindFills my heart with joyI want to dance with youSing with youLet you in my heartAnd hope you want the sameBut I'm not sureIf I have the courageTo tell youOr even figure out who you are
DreamThere he stands,The man simply known as Dream.He's different now, fallen from grace,And risen back up to it.He was a joyous man, but he was beaten,Torn and scarred, starved and tormented.How did he get past it all they question me.I know the answer, only because I asked him myself.This is what he said to me,"You can only be broken so much,Eventually they stop trying,Then you take every scar,Every fracture and shattered piece,And turn them into strengths and advantages.Since they can't hurt you anymore,You have nothing left to fear."He turned his tortured soul into flawlessness.That is who he is now, a happy wounded soul,A perfect little broken Dream.
Come Away, Come AwayCome away, come awayAs I lazily layIt was the last day in the month of May,When it said come away, come awayStill I sit, never flit, out of witIn my chair in the middle of nowhereTo go anywhere, I surely do careBut still I sit there, in the middle of nowhereI can't find the strengthAs I lie at full lengthIn this bed that I dreadBut still it said,From far far away,Come away, come awayLike a daunting whisper, it tauntsNever leaving me, it hauntsTo grant me needed ambition,Or supply me with intuitionCarry me away, I say,Take me away, so far far awayI can no longer stay in this chair and layLet me explore, I imploreThe endless shore and so much moreLet me see, I pleaAll that thee have made for meLet me out, I shoutOut of this route of endless doubtCome away, Come awayI still hear it sayEven to this dayIt will never cease to say,Come away, come away
My QueenFor reasons unknownI have fallen for youThere is something great,Something extraordinarily differentThat draws my thoughts to youAnd I may never knowExactly what that isBut what I do know isI've always believedThat my heart belongsWherever my mind goesWhen it begins to wanderAnd that can only be youFor you are queenOf the kingdom of my heart
Have You Ever Felt This Way?Do you have any idea what it's like?To live every day, not knowing what day it is,Because you just don't care?Because you are numb, you feel nothing….Depression is not what people are telling you…It's not just a sadness, it's more a feeling of nothingnessYou smile and laugh, you feign happinessBut in reality you feel nothing,You just know that is what you are supposed to doAnd the last thing you want, is someone asking about itSo you just keep being a fake, and you surviveYou lose track of the daysBecause time goes by so slow when you can't feel a thingYou feel as if you shouldn't even existYou feel as though nobody notices you anywayWhat's the point to living when you aren't really alive?You keep asking that questionBut you never have an answerYou never will have an answerBut you keep moving forward anywayTill you reach the day where you've had enoughYou stop listening to what everyone else has to
Delayed RealityYour fantasy a realityIs it anything like you dreamed?Does my heart beat the same?Or is it faster? Stronger?Was it as peaceful as you thought?Did you feel the warmth?Are you comfortable being held?Please do me this favor…Look back…look back on that momentWhen you were enveloped in fantasyCould you feel it in your heart?That feeling, deep down, that you knewKnew it wasn't really fantasyBut reality that had yet to occur.
Debating With MyselfLiving in constant struggleDebating with myselfDo I go out in search of love?Or do I let it find me?Risk a good friendship,For a chance at something more?Or wait and seeIf you make the first move?Deciding could be easyIf only I had a clueAs to how you feelIf I go for it,I am going in blindIf I do nothing,I may never knowWhich is the greatest risk?I do not know
I'll Be HereIt only takes a thought of youTo lift me upWhen I have fallenEven as I write, you are what I desireI wish to look you in the eyesTo tell you once againHow much you mean to meAnd now, more than everI just want to hold youTell you not to be discouragedEverything will work out
Writer's blockOh words, my words, where have you gone?I've searched both high and low:My words are nowhere to be foundBut why, I do not know.So many things I want to say,All bottled up inside;But there is no relief today--Oh words, why must you hide???
Of Snake Charmers and TreesThere are mathematiciansthat calculate the gravitationalpull that tethers us to one another,teasing sense out of the fabricof Time and Space likewizened snake charmers.I thought them so horriblyunromantic, searching forlogic amidst wildflowers-reasoning being reason enoughto put one foot in frontof the other each day.True beauty lay printedon petals and pages,where I delved for pearls;the patterns in the pathosintriguing me into eachrising of the sun.I do not remember whenit occurred to me thatwithout fractals there wouldbe no trees, nor without lovewould people have any reasonto calculate the distances thatseparate them from their muses.

A better body-class function for WordPressJanuary 1st, 2013
UPDATED– October 20, 2013: Thanks to Marty (see comments below), for convincing us to change out our method for body classes to filter the default WP body_class() function instead of creating our own. It still gives you all the advantages of our original function plus the classes you get by default.
Here's what it does
- First, check to see if you are on one of the following and create a class if so: home, 404, category, search, tag.
- We then make a class prefixed by page_ that has the name of the page or post in it.
- Then we check to see if the page has a parent, if so, we create a class prefixed by parent_ and put the parent name there.
- Finally we make a class with the prefix template_ and put the name of the template used there.
The PHP
Add this stuff to your functions.php file, or just use our html5 shell and it's built in.
// Add to the body_class function
function condensed_body_class($classes) {
global $post;
// add a class for the name of the page - later might want to remove the auto generated pageid class which isn't very useful
if( is_page()) {
$pn = $post->post_name;
$classes[] = "page_".$pn;
// add a class for the parent page name
$post_parent = get_post($post->post_parent);
$parentSlug = $post_parent->post_name;
if ( is_page() && $post->post_parent ) {
$classes[] = "parent_".$parentSlug;
// add class for the name of the custom template used (if any)
$temp = get_page_template();
if ( $temp != null ) {
$path = pathinfo($temp);
$tmp = $path['filename'] . "." . $path['extension'];
$tn= str_replace(".php", "", $tmp);
$classes[] = "template_".$tn;
return $classes;
add_filter('body_class', 'condensed_body_class');
The HTML
<body class="<?php body_class(); ?>">
Your Help
Let us know if you see ways to make it better, probably more conditions could be added to the beginning to take into consideration more template types.

Come mid 2008, Nokia will begin to rollout its unlimited music service dubbed "comes with it" to select countries. What is it? Purchase a select high end Nokia phone and it will include unlimited music downloads for 1 year. So far, Nokia has managed to sign up one label, Universal Music Group, and plans to add others. According to Nokia the deal will be profitable for both parties. That's gotta be one expensive handset given the music label's recent griping and complaining when it comes to 'profits'. After one year, Nokia (and participating labels) hopes that users will be hooked on the service and renew – the fee has yet to be determined. Surprisingly, all music downloaded during the first year can be kept beyond the trial end date and played on a PC or Nokia. Of course there's a much bigger scheme going on here. Nokia will soon launch their Ovi (means door in Finnish) website which will allow users to organize photos, music and more. Apparently, they've created some "neural network" that'll display photos in a 3 dimensional like space and connect those to associated emails, contacts, locations shot, etc. Apparently, we should expect significantly upgraded handsets because the current and standard Nokia interface is beyond antiquated at this point. What's my take? I'm surprised Nokia didn't just scoop up Napster or Real, and leverage their already-in-place agreements with the music industry. Apple might be affected by this, but it'll take years for Nokia to scratch their surface given their market penetration. After all, the ideal consumer (aside from one without any iPod) would be one with an old iPod and looking to upgrade to a handset that's compatible with both future music services and their past music collection. If they have a small library of AAC encoded music (aka iTunes) they might just opt for the iPhone which will be in gen 2 by mid 2008.

Stable Matchings and the Small Core in Nash Equilibrium in the College Admissions Problem
AbstractBoth rematching proof and strong equilibrium outcomes are stable with respect to the true preferences in the marriage problem. We show that not all rematching proof or strong equilibrium outcomes are stable in the college admissions problem. But we show that both rematching proof and strong equilibrium outcomes with truncations at the match point are all stable in the college admissions problem. Further, all true stable matchings can be achieved in both rematching proof and strong equilibrium with truncations at the match point. We show that any Nash equilibrium in truncations admits one and only one matching, stable or not. Therefore, the core at a Nash equilibrium in truncations must be small. But examples exist such that the set of stable matchings with respect to a Nash equilibrium may contain more than one matching. Nevertheless, each Nash equilibrium can only admit at most one true stable matching. If, indeed, there is a true stable matching at a Nash equilibrium, then the only possible equilibrium outcome will be the true stable matching, no matter how players manipulate their equilibrium strategies and how many other unstable matchings are there at the Nash equilibrium. Thus, we show that a necessary and sufficient condition for the stable matching rule to be implemented in a subset of Nash equilibria by a direct revelation game induced by a stable matching mechanism is that every Nash equilibrium profile in that subset admits one and only one true stable matching.

The season 4 and season 8 contestant, who owns the Flip Burger Boutique, and his wife Jazmin announced Embry Lotus Blais' birth earlier this week via Twitter. Embry joins big sister Riley, 2.5, in the Blais' Atlanta, GA, home.
For some, whipping up something edible in the kitchen takes a miracle. Top Chef alumna Nikki Cascone has the cooking handled but calls her new baby her miracle. According to PEOPLE, Cascone and her husband, Brad Grossman, welcomed Jackson Robert on January 3rd. Jax, as the couple plan to call him, weighed 7 pounds, 4 ounces and was 19-inches long.

Former Top Chef finalist Brian Malarkey has expanded his family by two — and that's the honest truth!

Babies Miles James and Sailor Elizabeth join two-year-old Huntington "Hunter" O'Neil as the rules of the Malarkey roost.
Did you catch all the baby news this week? Check out our weekly wrap-up to make sure you're up-to-date on who's expecting, welcoming and naming!
• Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi's dream came true on February 20th when her daughter, Krishna Thea, was born.
• Gary Busey and Steffanie Sampson welcomed Luke Sampson Busey on February 22nd. Busey's newest son weighed 6 pounds, 7 ounces.
• The-Dream, who's expecting a girl with Christina Milian, slipped in an interview with MTV and shared baby girl's planned name: Violet.
• Country singer Luke Bryan and his wife Caroline announced that they're expecting their second child this August.
• Catherine Bell, who currently stars in Lifetime's "Army Wives," and her husband are also expecting. The couple are evening things up: they're currently parents to 6-year-old Gemma and are expecting a baby boy.
• NASCAR driver Carl Edwards is finally out of the baby race. He and Kate welcomed Anne Edwards — all 8 pounds, 4 ounces of her — on February 24th.
• Jim Carrey is an early grandfather! Daughter Jane and her husband Alex Santana, lead singer for the band Blood Money, weren't expecting Jackson Riley Santana until March 3rd. Jackson, who weighed in at 7 pounds, 11 ounces, had other ideas! He arrived February 26th.
• Another country singer, another August baby! This time, the expectant papa is James Otto, of "Just Got Started Lovin' You" fame. New baby will be the first for Otto and his wife, Amy.
Padma Lakshmi's dream came true on Saturday, February 20th, when she welcomed daughter Krishna Thea. Lakshmi had struggled for years with endometriosis, leading her doctor to call this pregnancy a miracle. The Top Chef hostess has consistently declined to announce the identity of Krishna's father, but recent rumors have suggested he may be Adam Dell, the younger brother of venture capitalist and Columbia Business School teacher Michael Dell.
Expectant mama and Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi has been candid about her pregnancy since sharing the good news earlier this month. First, she spoke about her struggles with endometriosis, and now she's talking openly about her itchy baby bump!
At a New York City brunch to champion Reebok's line of Pink Ribbon products, Lakshmi says she has a daily "buttering ceremony" to soothe her burgeoning belly. She plans to keep butter on her plate as well, saying "I am as omnivorous as it's possible to be. I always say there's nothing I won't eat and nothing I won't wear."
While eager to share about her progressing pregnancy, Lakshmi's keeping mum on the father's identity as well as the baby's gender. Guess we'll find out at least one of those answers when she delivers in late March/early April.

I recently did a western with a new antibody. After developing the film, the protein marker showed up and it was a very strong signal. However, the samples only produced faint bands. I am currently probing for actin after stripping the membrane. I have never seen the marker produce a signal on a western before, any answers for the cause of this?

just reduce the quantity of marker you loading, you can reduce its signal, alternatively if you have extra well just skip a well and start loading the samples...may be your target antibody might not be picking signal in a short time, so your longer incubation and more marker loaded are the possible reason for this.. definitely your actin shd be good, so you wnt get signal dominance frm the marker...

I read that article. While it shows some similarities between the two schemes, it does not prove your assertion...it just shows that Saban's D is the part time version of LeBeau's...

Who do you think faces more complex offenses each week? LeBeau or Saban? Saban sees the zone read (spread) option almost every week. Colleges are running and have been running far more of it than the NFL. Think about it.
Read this...
Steelers 2014 Draft
1-Darqueze Dennard CB Michigan State
2-Jordan Matthews WR Vanderbilt
3-Jordan Tripp ILB/OLB Montana
4-Christian Jones ILB Florida State
5-Brent Urban DE Virginia
5-Michael Schofield OG/OT Michigan
6-Kadeem Edwards OG Tennessee State
6-Ben Gardner DE Stanford
7-Aaron Colvin CB Oklahoma
This dude finally got it right towards the end of his article.. And I quote....."The best player at each position should and deserves to play, regardless of age or chumminess with the coaching staff."
WTF. OK, this is what happens. Harrison and Woodley were simply better than Worilds, so Harrison and Woodley started.. Duh.
6- Time Super Bowl Champions......
2012 MNF Executive Champion
Seems you're the one who just posted elsewhere about getting better players before getting rid of coaches.... which is it?
Beyond that, you do understand that over half the Steelers defense has 5 or less years of experience. Exactly how young do they need to get?
Further, I for one am glad we have a DC that is able to stave off the tide of fans wanting every pick to play his first season. That's the kind of defense Tampa Bay or Oakland likes to put out there.

Cam Heyward played in a complex college defense similar to the Steelers...he took three years to shine...
Jarvis Jones played in Saban's 3-4 and was demoted because he couldn't get his assignments correct...
Can you please explain why? If the complexity is no different, then how? Please, tell me...
Realizing that the pro bowl selection system is somewhat flawed, there are no rookies on the team. None. There are guys like Cameron Jordan and Robert Quinn - third year guys (who did nothing as rookies).
As for Keenan Lewis, he wasn't ready to play in 2011. The job was his to lose, and he lost it. The Steelers went 12-4 that year. When you are playing at that level, you don't sacrifice results to play immature kids who aren't ready.

I firmly believe that someone with healing spells should have their preferred healing addon open. I do on all my characters, including the pally I'm lvling as tank (a click-heal addon makes Righteous Defense SUPER easy to use! who knew!) Its how I keep track of whether my healer is getting their face ripped off while tanking. It's also useful so on my shaman main if the healer goes down I can go back to doing my usual role, healing. I will not let the tank die until I myself am dead or OOM or going down kicking and screaming
