Choosing this time to self-produce, the band also enlisted the reputable ears of Will Putney at Machine Shop Studios (Thy Art Is Murder, Northlane) for mixing duties. The track listing will be as follows:
1. Mae
2. A Beautiful White
3. Colours And Chemicals

9. New Years Eve

Heart In Hand comments: "'A Beautiful White' is an album about fresh starts and overcoming problems that face you in life. Coming out of the darkness into the light and not letting bad things in life hold you back. This record has more diversity than our previous releases; we tried different things musically as well as vocally. There's a guest spot which perfectly complements the song it's featured on and the overall sound is a much more accomplished effort!" More...
Heart In Hand To Miss Tonight's Show
After cancelling the Paris stop of the band's current tour due to illness, Heart In Hand has now posted the following update about also missing tonight's show:

Heart In Hand Splits With Bassist
U.K. act Heart In Hand has posted the following message online about splitting with the band's bassist:
"As some of you may have seen already, we have very recently parted ways with our bass player Carl.
"He was there from the start and had a huge part shaping Heart In Hand into what it is today, but it was time for him to move forward and onto other ventures. There are no hard feelings between us and we wish him all the best for his future.
"Taking his place on the lower frequencies will be our long term friend and bass wizard Gav Thane. You might remember him from bands like Viatrophy and Death Of An Artist, and he also filled in for Carl on our Scandinavian tour last month.
"Here's to the future, forever looking forward!"

Heart In Hand also recently contributed to our "Pit Stories" column. Check out guitarist Ed Hartwell's story over here.
Pit Stories: No Good Deed Goes Unpunished
Every week we check in with fans and musicians to get their favorite Pit Stories. Today guitarist Ed Hartwell from Heart In Hand tells the following story about courteous moshers lending a helping hand...and wishing they hadn't:
This was not at a metal or hardcore show, but I think that makes it even funnier. A couple of years ago I went to see The Foo Fighters at the Milton Keynes Bowl and during one of their "mosh pits" (I use the term as loosely as possible) it became apparent that a pretty fat guy had fallen and was in a lot of pain. I think he had broken or sprained his foot from teeny bopping or something.
The crowd around him adopted the 'all for one and one for all' safety mentality which is usually the case at shows and helped lift him up to the barrier. It took a lot of force cos of his size. At this point a few people had noticed that he'd shit himself and it was coming out his shorts.
Of course they immediately tried to get away, but of course couldn't due to the sheer density of the crowd. It was too late and their heroic good samaritan deeds were rewarded by being horribly traumatized, as a big shitty guy tumbled over their heads. I was about 3 metres from the incident so luckily had a good enough view without getting any fecal matter on me whilst I enjoyed "Monkey Wrench."
Heart in Hand's second album "Almost There" is due out May 13th via Siege Of Amida Records. The band will be touring the U.K. and Europe over the summer and making various festival appearances. For more info on the band, head over to the Heart In Hand Facebook profile. More...

SOAR Announces Partnership With Century Media
Century Media Records has announced a worldwide partnership with U.K. indie label Siege Of Amida Records (known as SOAR).
This new deal sees SOAR utilized as a central launch pad for the metal and hardcore genres, focusing predominantly on the increasingly vibrant U.K. underground scene and launching emerging international acts onto the circuit.
Century Media label manager Antje Lange says of the deal: "We feel honoured and excited to work with the highly acclaimed label Siege Of Amida. They've proved that they have the Midas touch and the instinct for catching great new bands early and we are confident that we can put the label to the next level, on a worldwide basis."
After starting the careers of the likes of Whitechapel, Annotations of an Autopsy, Heart In Hand, Ingested, TRC, and Dyscarnate, as well as being the European vessel for U.S. bands such as Impending Doom and Molotov Solution, SOAR is reputed for being one of the leading labels spearheading a movement of new exciting bands within extreme music. Many of their past bands are now with larger, internationally established labels such as Metal Blade, Victory, eOne and Nuclear Blast; this deal sees them no longer in the shadow of larger labels and able to compete with the heavyweights.

Heart In Hand has announced its signing with Siege Of Amida Records. The signing comes in time for the band to release its debut album, "Only Memories," in May of 2011. The band commented on the signing by saying:

"We are super-excited for the world to hear our debut album, 'Only Memories' . A lot of blood, sweat and tears have literally gone into writing and recording it.
"We have definitely grown as people and musicians during the last year, and the album is a huge step up from our self-titled EP. So much more passion, aggression and emotion have been put into this record and it really shows. We are very proud of what we have created, and are reall

When you think you got something good only to find out that you got duped. Coined from Call of Duty: World at War's Zombie Map Verruckt, where a mystery weapon box the player can spend their own points to open for a random weapon could spawn a teddy bear instead that will not only give the player no weapon but removes the box, making the entire team search the whole map to find out where it was moved to.

On Screen
'Kranks' Is an
Uninspired Holiday Dud
By Kam Williams
On paper, "Christmas with
the Kranks" reads like a "can't miss" comedy
with a lot more potential than the lame lump of
coal that's been dumped in our cinema stocking
this holiday season. For openers, it stars Tim
Allen ("The Santa Clause 1 & 2") and Jamie Lee
Curtis ("Freaky Friday"), both of whom are known
for this sort of family fare.
Plus the production is
stocked with such consummate comedians as Dan
Aykroyd, Cheech Marin, Caroline Rhea and Tom
Poston. And rounding-out the supporting cast are
well-respected character actors like M. Emmet
Walsh and Jake Busey.
The movie was even directed
by Joe Roth, whose previous picture, "America's
Sweethearts," was a hilarious hit, and its
screenwriter was Christopher Columbus, who wrote
and/or directed a string of wholesome hits,
including "Home Alone 1 & 2."
Perhaps the problem had to
do with the source material, as the story is
based on the book "Skipping Christmas," an
uncharacteristic departure by John Grisham.
This transparent tale takes
place in suburban Chicago, where Luther (Allen)
and Nora (Curtis) Krank are facing the prospect
of spending their first Christmas without their
daughter, Blair (Julie Gonzalo), who is off in
Peru, serving in the Peace Corps. Rather than
get swept up in all of the obligatory rituals of
the frenzied season, such as rushing around
shopping malls, exchanging fruitcakes and
hosting their annual holiday party, the couple
opts to avoid all the insanity by treating
themselves to a Caribbean cruise.
But when word of their
blasphemous plan spreads around their completely
Christian cul-de-sac, their nosy neighbors, led
by busybody Vic Frohmeyer (Aykroyd), decide to
intervene. For unless the Kranks reconsider,
their darkened house's exterior will ruin the
block by being the only one on Hemlock Street
unadorned by festive lights.
So, for the balance of this
misfiring misadventure, everybody in town takes
turns trying to embarrass Luther and Nora into
changing their minds. This includes not just
friends, but local cops looking for a donation
and a prudish parish priest offended by the idea
of their patronizing a tanning salon. The
picture's defective premise rests on the
debatable notion that there is something wrong
with anyone inclined to celebrate the season
with anything other than the socially sanctioned
Of course, some
pathetically predictable plot twists and syrupy
sentimentality, which could only amuse a five
year-old lead the Kranks back to their
materialistic senses in time for a Kodak moment
which shouts a rather shallow Merry Capitalism
to all!
Poor (0 stars); rated PG
for slightly salty language and for some
sexually suggestive material. It is showing at
Hoyts Cinema in Bangor.

Applied Weapons Technologies is a newly formed company bringing new and unique products to the table. Located in central Kentucky we're proud when we say this product is 100% made and assembled in the USA. The current chassis system for Remington 700 Short Action is in production with the long action version soon to follow. In the near future there will be models for savage as well.
Additional parts such as add-on free float forends, folding stock options, bolt knobs, and muzzle brakes will be available shortly. Our chassis is made from high quality aluminum with even better quality aircraft grade 7075 employed where extra durability is needed. Type III MilSpec 8625 Hard Coat Anodizing is used to protect the surface and provide years of every day use. All hardware as well as the mag release system is made from alloy steel and is black oxide coated. The mag release system is easy to reach with a small "wing" on either side for trigger finger manipulation. The stock itself rides on two 7075 aluminum rails and has adjustment for length of pull as well as cheek rest elevation. The buttpad mounting plate also has a minor adjustment for smaller shooters.
The front of the chassis has two holes on either side where the optional free float forends will bolt on. Underneath it has a standard picatinny rail milled for bipod mounting. On the model shown below we have a standard bipod adapter mounted with a 6"-9" bipod. The chassis system is very light while maintaining rock solid rigidity.
Be advised, they will include the chassis system only (buttpad and hogue grip included), but they will NOT include a bipod or bipod adapter, nor will they include an action, barrel, scope, etc. Cost is $795.
If you have any questions or would like to place and order please feel free to use the forums, or call at 270-299-1380.

Once you begin having plastic surgery, how often does it have to be repeated before you end up looking like some celebrities who have, obviously, overdone it?

No matter how many different or repeated procedures a patient has, the goal should always be a more youthful, rested, and natural appearance. I have seen patients in consultation who have an overdone look even after one procedure if it is not done properly. It is important for patients to convey their concerns and expectations and for plastic surgeons to listen to their patients. Every patient is different and each procedure should be tailored made to give the patient the desired result.

Idaho athletic director refuses to board a plane painted in Boise State colors
11/12/09 in NCAAF | Pat | 5232 respect
Horizon Air has a Boise State-themed plane, which they routinely fly in and out of Boise. When University of Idaho athletic director Rob Spear flew to Boise, he refused to board the Broncos-themed plane, and instead drove 90 miles to take another flight from another airport. He says he'll "board the plane after Horizon Air paints an airplane for the Vandals". If they would win a few more games, I'm guessing that would have happened a long time ago.

That reminds me of a situation i lived:
My cousin, in september 2008, invited me to WoW via RaF. Then, we decided that i would have a "main" caracter for solo and a RaF caracter when he was online. For about 2 weeks, playing some minutes a day, my "alt" was already 25 and my "main" only 12... After that, which is quite sad, he simply stopped playing with me on my "alt", so i just leveled my main to 80, and i did not enjoyed RaF bonus.
After some months of level 80, i decided to level my alt who was still in his 30's to 80, and now i had 2 max level caracters
Right after i dinged 80, my cousin said he wanted to experience the alli side of things with me (duo leveling) we agreed a prot warrior (me)/Hunter (him) combo to get faster queues and some fun (revenge crits are awsome). Now, i think he realized how much i was pissed of because of my alt, we sticked and we are now nearly 68!
He said he liked it and, come cataclysm, he would roll a troll druid with me, getting an undead hunter, a tauren pally or a rogue (not sure which one i want)
The thing is, we see each other IRL and such, so we can't really break our leveling pact
Anyway, great story, I'm sad it ended badly for you

The Canary Islands region
Fuerteventura is the second largest of the Canary Islands, but is very much less developed than the other large islands. The island is famous for its stunning white sand beaches and very popular with water sport enthusiasts.
The climate is subtropical (temperatures usually range from 18-28C) and has very little rainfall. Its closest neighbour is the coast of West Africa. The sun shines approximately 8 hours a day almost every day of the year and so provides an ideal destination at any time of the year.
As well as the water activities there are lots of other attractions and activities available: walking, hiking, cycling, horse riding, quad biking, fishing, birdwatching. There is a nearby water park, a zoo, museums, golfing and much more.
Certain parts of the island, including El Cotillo, are also very popular with naturists.
El Cotillo
El Cotillo is set in the North West of the island of Fuerteventura. Once a sleepy fishing village, it is now moving into the 21st century and with it a certain amount of new developments. However this has not had a negative effect on the village which is still very uncommercial and as relaxed and laid back as it ever was.
There is a main supermarket and 2 smaller local stores, 1 bank with cash machine, and a great French Patisserie/bakery. There are various other smaller stores and services in the village. Restaurants are plentiful and most have excellent views over the beach or harbours. The village maintains its Canarian feel and is an ideal location for a truly relaxing stay. Surfing,cycling and walking are all very popular in this region, and equipment can be hired locally.

Job Hunting & Social Media - Important Tips To Know
Jordan had long "forgotten" about some of his drunk and partying posts on his Facebook account since he didn't use it much anymore. Unfortunately, the prospective employer went to look BEFORE he hired him and those posts lost Jordan that job. It's not just teens and twenty-somethings getting negative publicity.
The interviewer asks: Why has it taken you so long to find a job?
Its difficult to believe that employers are still asking this type of question. Dont they read the newspapers or listen to the news? If they were informed, they would know the answer; i.e. jobs are very scarce and difficult to find these days, and unemployment is still high, despite improvements in the economic picture.

Plotting potential of 2 bodies.
Hi everyone,
Im currently following an example of this paper: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/aeronauti...7F09_Lec18.pdf
And have reached a standstill on page 5. Im trying to plot the pseudo potential of the two bodies. I have succeded in plotting the gravitational potential in maple. But when i want to plot the pseudo potential i have to use the function (14). But on the added centrifugal force theres r, which i pressume is the position vector.
Im not really sure how to plot this since i now have 3 (x,y,r) variables instead of 2(x,y). r must be some sort of function of x and y, i think? If anyone has ever plottet the potential field i would love to know what to do now.
and thanks in advance.
Re: Plotting potential of 2 bodies.
Hint: r is the "diagonal" distance running directly from the origin to the point (x,y). x is the "horizontal" distance from the origin. y is the "vertical" distance from the origin. x, y and r form the three sides of a right triangle. What famous Greek do you think of when you look at a right triangle? :wink:
Re: Plotting potential of 2 bodies.
thanks :) Graph looks perfect now!

Comments about Nike Volley Zoom Hyperspike Women's Volleyball Shoes:
I love these shoes very much. The only problem is that the picture does not actually match the product. Just so every one is aware, the flywire lines are not silver or metallic, they are in fact black. Do not be fooled by the picture.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Good cushion and side support
By Kathy
from Franklin, TN
About Me Avid Athlete
These shoes were purchased for my daughter that plays volleyball. She likes the shoes so far. She requires extra arch so it is hard to comment about arch support. Also due to the extra bulk in the shoe for her ankle braces, she usually has to have a larger size than she normally wears so I cannot comment on fit. In her former shoe she wore an 8 and in this shoe she is wearing a 7.5. This is a new shoe for her, so we will have to give it time to see if she likes as much as the former brand she wore for several years. So far, so good.

Great Shoes
By Sinjin
from Alaska
These are great shoes! The only problem I have with them is that the heal on them feel a little wide. You have to figure out how to tie them to fit to your feet.
Great Price
By Club Volleyball Mom
from Indiana
About Me Club Volleyball Player
My 14 year old daughter plays club Volleyball and they have a Nike uniform package. She really loves the Nike Brand so I bought the Nike Volley Zoom Hyperspike shoes for her. I love all the different color options available on this style. Nike only sells a couple styles of volleyball shoes and this is the only style she liked. She wore them for the first time to practice yesterday and said it felt like her pinky toes was getting smashed. So, the Fly wires feel restricting. Not sure if they just need broken in or what, because one of the reasons I bought the shoes was that the Fly Wires would help stabilize her feet for jumping. Not sure if she will be able to adjust to the feeling of the Fly Wires.This is the best price on the internet for these shoes.
By Maria the Volleyball Player
from St. Louis, MO
I ordered the grey and silver ones and recieved the wrong color. The box had no reciept or ordering information. Had no way to return them.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Man gets fired for urinating on office chairs of hot co-workers
West Des Moines police are investigating whether criminal charges are warranted in the case of a Farm Bureau employee behaving badly.
A Farm Bureau vice president told authorities that one of the agency's employees had been caught on video urinating on the office chairs of four female co-workers. The suspect, a 59-year-old man from Des Moines, was fired Monday, the same day police were informed of the incident at 5400 University Ave.
The man had worked in the information technology department and had access to all computers and the employee database, Farm Bureau officials told the police.
Police documents said the man would look up employee photos in the database. He "would pick out the attractive females and then on off-hours, he would come into work, go to their desk and urinate on their chairs."
Employees first started complaining about stains on their chairs in October 2011. Surveillance cameras were installed in February. The value of the damaged chairs was estimated at $4,500.
I just figured this guy was the alpha male in the office and just marking his territory - all the hot women in the office. But I suppose after a while the office isn't going to smell to good. So I guess you have to get rid of the guy. I know my chair would dry.

Had enough of the Maple Leafs? Blue Jays home opener is April 9
Newspaper fires reporter for being a stripper
Sarah Tressler, the Texas journalist outed this week for working as a society reporter for the Houston Chronicle by day and as a stripper by night, has been fired by the newspaper.
Tressler confirmed that she was fired in an interview with ABC News in which she said the newspaper let her go for not having told her supervisors about her off-duty dancing.
A rival newspaper took care of that task earlier this week; the Houston Press, after discovering a blog Tressler kept about her work as a stripper, published an article about her double life.
"The idea of somebody outing me seemed like it would be like such a mean thing to do that I never thought anybody would do it," Tressler said. "I guess I was wrong."
By day, Tressler had mingled with well-heeled and conservative crowds at charity luncheons and galas, covering high society for the Chronicle, one of the nation's most prestigious newspapers.
By night, the journalist was working in a world of 7-inch heels as an exotic dancer at high-end gentleman's clubs. She said she has been moonlighting as a dancer "on and off" since 2004.
"The reason I started dancing – it just boils down to money," Tressler told ABC News. "The economy was bad and I couldn't get a job."
Tressler, who earned a master's degree in journalism from New York University in 2009, was not just dancing but also blogging about her double life.
"I worked from 1:30 to 11:30 last Thursday, which is long enough to hang out with some friends, make some new contacts, eat lunch and pull down about $750," she wrote on her blog, Angry Stripper.
Tressler's no-holds-barred blog included her take on everything from experiences with crying customers to men with "weird" foot and nipple fetishes to an over-excited man who hurled chewed up bites of food at her while he tipped her. She posted under the author name sarahtress and shared pictures of herself in a "Slutty Claus" outfit.
In January, Tressler's freelance job at the Chronicle became full-time and her hours moonlighting as a stripper dwindled. She thought her secret life was safe until she was outed by the Press.
"Yeah, I guess so," Tressler said when asked if she was naive in believing her secret would never get out. "I just didn't really think that anybody would want to do that."

An iPad isn't for everyone
Orthodox Jewish school to expel girls with Facebook accounts
A Jewish High School for girls has been accused of ordering pupils to delete their Facebook profiles or risk expulsion.
Female pupils at Beis Rivkah High School in Brooklyn, New York, have reportedly been told to remove their accounts from the social networking site as bosses tried to addressa supposed decline in pupils' 'code of modesty'.
A school official said the crackdown was launched to restore a level of the Tznius Jewish Orthodox code of modesty said to be in decline through Facebook use.
All girls in the 11th grade of the school with Facebook accounts were removed from class and given the ultimatum, according to the Crown Heights community website.
An unnamed student at the school told the Algemeiner newspaper: 'People on the board said it's not proper for us to have Facebook because girls might be talking to boys on Facebook or they might be putting up immodest pictures.

Pretty sad, women beach volleyball players don't have to wear bikinis at Olympics
Women beach volleyball players won't have to wear bikinis at the 2012 London Olympics. A new rule announced Tuesday says that participants in this summer's beach volleyball competition can wear shorts and sleeved tops.
Athletes in the event have exclusively worn bikinis since the sport was introduced at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. Competitors could also wear bodysuits in cold-weather events.
The change was made to reflect cultural conventions of various participating countries.
"Shorts of a maximum length of [1.18 inches] above the knee, and sleeved or sleeveless tops," will now be allowed, according to the new IOC ruling.
Since the Beijing Olympics, most beach volleyball competitions have changed rules to allow for more modest uniforms. It's an attempt to broaden the diversity in the sport, which tends to be dominated by athletes from Europe, Brazil and the United States. Allowing shorts and shirts can encourage participation from countries with more modest cultural beliefs.
Talk about ruining a sport. What's more exciting than a lot of bare female skin covered in sweat and sand? Nothing. Do you want to know what Lingerie Football is without the lingerie? Pointless. I rest my case.
Man shot woman after confusing her Mohawk haircut with a bird
Derrill Rockwell told police he grabbed his rifle, the .22-caliber he kept handy to kill rodents around the house, about 5 a.m. Oct. 5 and walked outside to confront it.
The bird.
Possibly, he told police, the same fowl he suspected of harassing his cats recently around his home near Orchard Mesa Cemetery.
It was red, sitting at the top of a hill about 90 feet away from Rockwell.
"His intent was to spook it away," Deputy District Attorney Jason Conley told District Judge Richard Gurley on Friday.
Rockwell shot once but said he didn't see the bird fly away. Soon after, he heard a woman's voice, moaning in pain. Rockwell discovered a 23-year-old woman, with a large red mohawk, with a gunshot wound to the head.
"In 15 years in law enforcement, this was one of the more interesting cases I've worked," Grand Junction Police Department detective Sean Crocker told the judge Friday.
Rockwell, 49, was sentenced to serve five years probation after pleading guilty to felony possession of a weapon by a prior offender.
The District Attorney's Office dismissed remaining charges, including tampering with evidence, reckless endangerment, disorderly conduct and false reporting. He was ordered to pay more than $10,000 in restitution.
Rockwell initially misled the investigation, authorities said. Conley told the judge that Rockwell offered a wet towel for the woman's head injury and drove her to the emergency room at St. Mary's Hospital after the shooting, leaving his name and phone number with doctors.

Maple Leafs lose a must lose-game
This season the Maple Leafs might actually be in synch with their fans. Most fans understand that finishing 20th is not better than finishing 28th or 29th. If you aren't going to make the playoffs then dropping in the standings makes the most sense. That increases the possibility of drafting a player who can help you next season. Provided you have hung on to your first pick.
Yet each season over the past few years the Leafs make a run on the standings with too little left in the schedule. Frustrates the hell out of fans since the wins are meaningless. But this year the team has essentially given up on the season. A few guys are playing for spots next year but since of the team is signed for next year why bother. Welcome to the 2012 strain of the blue and white disease. The team has the serious look down pat along with the standard "we are working hard to turn this around." Sure you are.
So tonight was an important game for the Leafs. A win by Carolina along with a win by the Islanders dropped the Leafs to 26th overall and lottery country. Gustavsson was at his worst and got the yank after it was too late to mount a comeback. It would only be fitting if this was his last game at the ACC. The Monster has long ago become a nightmare. The night had a little bit of irony with two ex-Leafs scoring for Carolina. Both Jay Harrison and Tim Brent were journeymen players who mostly spent time with the Marlies. The third goal by Harrison was particularly ugly. He just lofted the puck at the net and it went over Gustavsson's shoulder. Vesa Toskala lives on! Thanks guys for sticking the knife in nice and deep.
So the Leafs are now mathematically eliminated so one set of cliches will be dropped for a new bunch. Next up is Philadelphia. We can only hope for a bloodbath.

Man arrested after pocket dialing 911 during a theft
Life lesson – if you are planning on trespassing, you might want to remove your phone from your pants pocket before crawling under a fence.
A Southington man is facing charges after police said he accidentally called 911 early Thursday morning while attempting to steal scrap metal from a local Spring Street business. Police said he dialed dispatchers while crawling under a fence.
"When officers responded, they were originally thinking that the call coming in was a medical because dispatchers could only hear rustling on the other end," said Sgt. Lowell DePalma. "They arrived and found him crawling out from underneath a fence."
Michael Gorneau, 46, was taken into custody after a police report said officers found 700 pounds worth of scrap metal loaded into his Chevy Silverado.
Gorneau, of 462 Queen St., was charged with third-degree criminal trespassing and sixth-degree larceny. He was released after posting a $5,000 bond and is due in Bristol Superior Court for arraignment on April 2, according to court records.
DePalma said it isn't common, but police have had instances where people dialed 911 accidentally before. Most don't lead to an arrest, however.
"When this kind of thing happens, our dispatchers use our GPS tracking system to monitor the call. Usually a 911 call without anyone on the other end signifies a medical emergency, so medical personnel were also on notice."
After tracking the call, a nearby patrol officer pulled into the lot just in time to catch Gorneau in the act, police said.
Just another man bites dog story
A dog sent in to subdue an unruly suspect at a Kfar Saba police station Thursday was bitten by the man and required medical treatment.
The man was initially detained for breaching a restraining order issued by his spouse. When police were called in to the woman's home, the suspect threatened to jump out of a window and attempted to assault an officer with a screwdriver.
Police detained the man and took him to the station, where he again became unruly, prompting officers to send in the dog. According to officers, the dog managed to bring down the man, but the suspect did not give up and proceeded to bite the animal.

When it comes to the Maple Leafs I can't decide if the glass is half full or empty
The Toronto Maple Leafs are totally baffling and frustrating. We've been watching this wreck being rebuilt over the past 3 years by head mechanic Brian Burke and no one can be sure where we are. Does this team have a solid core of players that needs a few finishing pieces , most of all a solid goalie? Or has the flawed team coming out of the post-lockout period been replaced by different flawed players?
During parts of this season the Leafs have been able to rollover teams with their speed and aggressive play. Other times they have looked limp, timid and confused. Good teams have bad games. Bad teams will have good games. This is a team that will have great games and horrible games.
How much has coaching contributed to all this? Hard to tell. Certainly Brian Burke will never tell. He isn't going to throw his former coach under the bus but we do know that something motivated Burke it replace a couple of assistant coaches in the off season.
One thing is certain, this team needs more than a coaching change to compete. Three years into a rebuild it would be difficult to start from scratch but each piece of this puzzle needs to be examined to see if it is a good fit. The players logging the biggest ice time are Dion Phaneuf and Phil Kessel, but are they really capable of taking on such a load? Some players have been brought in to play a certain role - Colby Armstrong, Tim Connolly, Dave Steckel, Mike Komisarek and Mike Brown. Have they been able to deliver? Some have while others have not.
Remember this is the second youngest team in the NHL. But how much better will some of the 24 to 26 year olds get? Have they plateaued? Do they need more veteran leadership? Do they have the right veterans? Making moves will be tough since 19 players are under contract for next season. It would help if the Leafs could grab a pick in the top 3 in this year's draft. They have had draft picks this high but not kept them. Their last top 3 draft pick was Wendel Clark. We could use another Clark.
Prostitution and brothel are legal in Canada the tourists are coming back!
The Court of Appeal for Ontario has swept aside some of the country's anti-prostitution laws saying they place unconstitutional restrictions on prostitutes' ability to protect themselves.
The landmark decision means sex workers will be able to hire drivers, bodyguards and support staff and work indoors in organized brothels or "bawdy houses," while "exploitation" by pimps remains illegal.
However, openly soliciting customers on the street remains prohibited with the judges deeming that "a reasonable limit on the right to freedom of expression."
The province's highest court suspended the immediate implementation of striking the bawdy house law for a year to allow the government an opportunity to amend the Criminal Code.
The appeal stems from the legal oddity that while prostitution was not illegal, many activities surrounding it were, including running a brothel or bawdy house, communicating for the purpose of prostitution and living on money earned by a prostitute.
That disconnect led to a constitutional challenge mounted by three sex trade workers who say the laws prevented them from taking basic safety precautions, such as hiring a bodyguard, working indoors or spending time assessing potential clients in public.
Well finally the tourism industry in Canada gets a break. With SARS, the rising Canadian dollar and the recession, tourism here has been taking a beating. But now a new door has been opened up. I can just see it now Internet ads, a redlight district, discount cards available in hotel lobbies, limo service and a Frommer's review. Just no soliciting in the street.

School won't allow student to bring porn star to prom
A Minnesota high school senior who turned to the porn industry for a prom date found a couple of takers, but school administrators say the X-rated actresses aren't welcome.
Mike Stone says he sent dozens of Twitter messages to Hollywood celebrities, mostly porn actresses, and received a response from two, Megan Piper and Emy Reyes. They agreed to accompany him to the May 12 prom at Tartan High School in Oakdale, a St. Paul suburb.
But Superintendent Patty Phillips says such a date is prohibited by school policy that disallows a visitor if it's not in the best interest of the students.
The 18-year-old Stone says he'll hold an alternative party at the same time as the prom so he can bring his dates.
Yeah, school boards don't seem to appreciate the educational value of dating a porn star. In addition to supplementing sex ed, they are excellent marketers and entrepreneurs. As always a missed opportunity for the school.
B.C. resident creates hilarious driver's license photo
It's rare that driver's license photos turn out halfway decent (particularly since the national smiling prohibition took effect), so Adam Bard decided to preempt the embarrassment factor.
Or maybe the 26-year-old software developer just thought it would be funny to shave half his hair and half his beard on opposite sides before posing for the shot.
Whatever the reason, the Victoria, B.C. resident has managed to produce one of the more interesting images to ever come out of the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia.
Miss Universe Canada yanks contestant over a technicality - she was once a guy
The Miss Universe Canada organizers concede Jenna Talackova is a "real girl," but that doesn't mean they will let her in their beauty pageant.
Talackova, a native of Vancouver, will not be competing in this year's Miss Universe Canada pageant because she was born a male.
According to Denis Davila, national director of Miss Universe Canada, the rules set by the Miss Universe franchise state that each contestant must be a "naturally born female." According to Davila, Talackova claimed on her registration form she was born a female. He said he suspected otherwise and asked her about it on March 13, when she admitted she was not. She was pulled from the contest that day.
Come on you have to admit this an example of the extent of medical science today. How can that ever have been a guy? Glad I'm not dating because you could never be too sure.

Batman's Batmobile pulled over by cops, turns out to be a Lamborghini
Montgomery County Police tweeted a photo Friday afternoon of an unlikely traffic stop. Batman was behind the wheel with the wrong tags on the Batmobile.
Officers pulled the Caped Crusader heading southbound on Route 29 at Prelude Drive.
The back tag on the Batmobile - in this case a black Lamborghini - was the superhero's emblem rather than state tags required by law, according to police.
The man, who has not been identified by police, was heading down to a hospital to visit sick children in the hospital.

This is the Tellulah Dress in Hues of Chocolate & Pistachio Mint. The style of this dress is called "Gunne Sax" for you vintage clothing and fashion fanatics… and I used a vintage Simplicity Pattern 9895 to create it. Victorian style clothing makes me smile and this was a fun project, especially when it came to adding all the lacy details to the front of the bodice.
The image of the rear of the dress shows off the zipper and the eyelet embellishment that allows you lace up the back of the dress like a corset if you choose. The hemline at the rear of the dress is embellished with a touch of extra lacing to achieve a mock fishtail look. Tellulah will be for sale on my website as soon as I give her one more ironing and she'll definitely be sent with enough ribbon to allow for the corset lacing option at the back. I'll also be offering the dress in a few other colors.

"When it comes to painted furniture, Baltimore craftsmen were undoubtedly the most prolific and their work was the best by far," says Tim Naylor, of Stevenson's Naylor Antiques Ltd. Naylor adds that this genre flourished between 1795 and 1840, although others place the beginning date at 1800. Painted chairs, sideboards, beds, tables and virtually any other piece of furniture -all were in great demand.
The popularity paralleled the increasing sophistication of the populace itself: at that time, Baltimore was the third largest city in the country and its merchants were increasingly prosperous.
"The real blossoming of painted furniture came when Baltimore itself was busy growing and expanding," says Jeannine Disviscour, curator at the Maryland Historical Society, which has the largest collection of this furniture in the state. "Baltimore was growing and expanding, it was a bustling port and people wanted the newest furniture for their homes."
Elegant as it is, however, this furniture was not only for the rich, she notes. She has advertisements from the period that indicate painted furniture was owned by families across the entire economic spectrum.
Although the Maryland Historical Society has a suite of furniture originally owned by financier Alexander Brown, which graced his townhouse on Holliday Street, it was also sought after by the middle class, as well as freed slaves.
"Over the past several years, we've received three chairs from the Cummings' family, which today is well-known in the African-American political arena," says Disviscour. "These people were originally slaves, but upon securing their freedom, probably in the 1830s, they bought painted furniture."
While several artists were crafting painted pieces locally, all the experts acknowledge that the cream of the crop were the Finlay brothers, John and Hugh. They were responsible for the Brown pieces at the Maryland Historical Society-estimated to have been completed about 1815-which includes a pair of window seats, a pier table that resided between two windows, a pair of card tables, 12 chairs to accompany a dining table and a sofa.
"These are decorated with the most stylish French and English designs," says Disviscour. "There was a lot of really wonderful use of designs from French pattern books, as well as English design books. Even though the pieces were made in Baltimore, they have a very international feel to them."
In addition to the Finlay brothers, Thomas S. Renshaw and John Barnhardt were key players, as was John Hodgkinson, who owned a chair factory on Liberty Street.
Not unexpectedly, the painting adapted itself to different styles of furniture. "The first high-style American painted furniture was made during this Federal period of 1800-1820. These Sheraton and Hepplewhite pieces were very delicate and lightweight, and emulated the finely painted English Regency pieces," says Naylor. "Around 1815 or 1820, there came a period of heavier, more archeologically correct, Grecian and Roman-influenced furniture.
"The final period was between 1825 and 1840. Here we see furniture named after the Restoration [of the monarchy] style of France, often known as Pillar and Scroll."
The painting style itself went through three periods: delicate, finely painted Baltimore houses or arranged scenes of musical instruments, known as trophies, were popular on the earlier furniture, whereas later there were significantly more classically influenced patterns, particularly gold-painted cornucopias, wreaths and anthemions.
The last period saw the introduction of stenciling, often with some free-hand embellishment, which, of course, was indicative of an increase in mass production. For collectors, Naylor says, Sheraton and Hepplewhite furniture is far and away the most desirable. However, it is hard to come by. Less was made and its delicacy guaranteed that fewer pieces would survive over the years.
In determining value, both Naylor and Disviscour agree that the condition of the paint itself is fundamental. "Value is determined by the paint's condition, condition and condition," says Naylor. He adds that, sadly, about 95 percent of what has survived has been repainted or stripped, efforts that take the value of a $400 chair down to about $40.
Collectors attempting to determine the authenticity of a painted piece should be savvy to a myriad of details. For instance, thick paint indicates that a piece was not painted between 1800 and 1840. "Most of the paint, which always was oil, was done freehand and by people who didn't need stencils, which came later," says Naylor. "If the paint looks thick, it's not original, largely because that would not have been economical and because thinner paint was easier to apply."
Other warning signs include "dings" and chips that have been in-painted. Clearly, says Naylor, this is not original paint.
For collectors, the bad news is that the best of Baltimore painted furniture is hard to come by. "When it does come on the market, if it's good quality, it gets gobbled up very quickly," says Naylor, who tells of a pier table that sold in an Eastern Shore auction last year for $7,000. A few months later it brought $40,000 at a New York auction, primarily because it was a rare piece and had no in-painting.
On the other hand, such pieces are still available, although they can be pricey. "If you are after something that is signed by the maker, you will pay a lot," says Disviscour. But it does come on the market. At the 1998 Philadelphia Antiques Show, six black-and-gold painted chairs were for sale. "Collectors can find painted furniture at these shows, as well as antique stores."
What is important to the Maryland Historical Society, in addition to the quality of craftmanship, is that the item have a good plot line, preferably one that ties neatly into Free State history.
Although the glory days pretty much were over by 1840, painted furniture never completely ended, but just sort of "petered out as styles changed," says Disviscour, who recommends that anyone with questions about such furniture contact the Maryland Historical Society or a reliable conservator.
For those searching for more information about painted furniture, one of the best sources of information about the genre, albeit one that is out of print, is "Baltimore Painted Furniture, 1800-1840," published by the Baltimore Museum

Heritage: Vintage Wine Country Tableware
Heritage Culinary ArtifactsDuring nearly a decade as a sommelier at esteemed restaurants like Martini House and Auberge du Soleil in Napa Valley, Lisa Minucci collected vintage tableware, buying pieces while on wine-scouting trips around the world. Just over a year ago, she opened Heritage Culinary Artifacts in the new Oxbow Public Market in downtown Napa to sell off some of her collection—everything from 1915 Georg Jensen sterling silver corkscrews to 19th-century English pewter toasting cups with bottoms shaped like fox heads (finish the drink before putting it down, or it will spill).

So after a really bad weekend of binging like none other, starting on Monday I needed to get back on track with my working out and my eating. I felt like crap for a few days but I'm happy to say that I'm finally back to feeling relatively normal.
As you all know, it is finally Fall which means all the good food is starting to come out! Sweet potatoes, pumpkin, squash, etc. Well this time of year, everybody loves some comfort food, that stuff that warms up your belly and just makes you feel good inside. Well yesterday, I made up my own recipe and threw it together in the crockpot and let's just say…it's amazing.
Pumpkin Sweet Potato Chili!
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 lb lean ground turkey
- 3/4 cup corn
- 1/4 can beans, drained if canned (I used kidney, but next time I'll probably use something else)
- 1 packet low sodium mild taco seasoning (you can use your own spices, my mom just doesn't like it too spicy so I always do it this way to make it easier).
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 1 cup water
- Brown up your ground turkey.
- While your turkey is cooking, clean and dice up your 2 sweet potatoes and toss them in your slow cooker along with beans, taco seasoning, water, corn and pumpkin.
- Once your turkey is done cooking, mix in with all of the other ingredients in the slow cooker.
- Cook on low for about 6 hours.
- Enjoy!
So I'm sorry I haven't posted on here in forever…it's honestly kind of a long story but I'll sum it up. I realized that I was suffering from an eating disorder and that I was watching what I ate way too much (in terms of amount and counting my calories and all that). I stopped doing that, continued eating healthy but stopped being crazy about it and started eating more because I started weight lifting. I'm back to posting recipes on here but they will no longer hold the nutritional information. If you would like to know the info, just message me and I'll gladly tell you. Tonight, this is what I'm making myself for dinner: Quinoa with Sweet Potato and Broccoli.
Courtesy of: Allrecipes
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 2 tbsp canola oil (or EVOO)
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 cups frozen broccoli
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1/2 cup whole almonds
- Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and let simmer until the quinoa is tender and the water has absorbed, about 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the diced potatoes into a saucepan, and pour in 1/4-in of water. Cover and simmer over medium-high heat. Steam until the sweet potatoes are slightly tender, about 10 minutes. While the potatoes are steaming, heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the onion and broccoli until the onion is tender, about 10 minutes.
- Once the potatoes have finished steaming, add them to the broccoli mixture, and season with garlic powder. Continue cooking until the potatoes have cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 5 minutes. Stir the broccoli mixture together with the cooked quinoa and almonds.
