Embarrassing Moms
by Slacker And Steve
posted Jul 23 2013 5:26PM
We all know what it's like to have our moms embarrass us, but these moms take the cake for most embarrassing. The mother of a Harvard-bound virgin recently placed an ad on Craigslist to find a woman who would have relations with her son for his first time. In return for someone taking her sons V-card she offered to make theirfinancial issues disappear.
This next mom, Sarah Torres was arrested for having relations with her daughter's 14-year-old ex-boyfriend. The 33 year-old and the teen got together when he stayed home from school one day. Cops busted Torres after the teen told family members about seeing her.
Slacker says while the Harvard mom is sweet for doing this, the kid is going to wonder what's up when this smoking hot woman who is way out of his league approaches him. Not to mention, when he finds out what does the mom think he's going to do, run to her and high-five her saying thanks mom! Slacker swears, other than his mom trying to kill him once, she is awesome and has never embarrassed him.
What's the most embarrassing thing your mom has done?
At a hibachi restaurant, a family next to me and my mom starting making small talk with us. They said that they were moving but my mom misheard and started talking about how she got her mattress from mattress king and how great it was. Moving…mattress…not quite the same thing.
With Love,
Intern Elana

When TV Works Online: Web Series We've Actually Heard Of
by Stephanie Earp, posted Jul 19th 2011 1:00PM
Lisa Kudrow's new comedy 'Web Therapy' debuts this week on Showtime, and if the title didn't tip you off, the show is a 30-minute reworking of a web series Kudrow started in 2008. The simple premise worked beautifully in the miniature format.
Kudrow plays Fiona Wallice, a therapist who thinks 50 minutes is too long for a therapy session, and conducts her mini-sessions via webcam. Of course, like most of Kudrow's characters, Wallice is self-centred, mean, and not all that well-informed. (I don't know why Kudrow insists on creating such unlikeable alter-egos for herself, but that's another column.) The trick will be to see if whatever charm the original held is maintained in a 30-minute format.
I'm going to be totally honest here -- I had never heard of 'Web Therapy' until it got picked up for television. Am I completely out of touch? Was the whole world watching this and nobody mentioned it to me? Or are you just as surprised as I am to hear that Kudrow has been regularly employed -- and winning Webby Awards -- for the last four years?

Young Muslims in Turkey Murder Three Christians
In a gruesome assault against Turkey's tiny Christian community, five young Muslim Turks entered a Christian publishing office in the southeastern province of Malatya Wednesday and slit the throats of the three Protestant Christians present.
Two of the victims, Necati Aydin, 36, and Ugur Yuksel, 32, were Turkish converts from Islam. The third man, Tilmann Geske, 46, was a German citizen.
The Turkish press reported Thursday that four of the five young men arrested for the murders, all 19 to 20 years of age, admitted during initial interrogations that they were motivated by both "nationalist and religious feelings."
"We did this for our country," an identical note in the pockets of all five young men read, Channel D television station reported. "They are attacking our religion."
According to the newspaper Hurriyet, one of the suspects declared during police questioning, "We didn't do this for ourselves. We did it for our religion. May this be a lesson to the enemies of religion."
In a demonstration against the Zirve Publishing office in Malatya two years ago, local protestors had claimed its publishing and distribution activities constituted "proselytism" among Muslims and should be closed down. Turkish law, however, guarantees the right to engage in religious evangelism if it does not contain proven political motives.
The three Christians were found tied hand and foot to chairs at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday in the liaison office of Zirve Publishing in Malatya's Niyazi Misr-i district. Their throats had been cut and their bodies marred by multiple stab wounds.
Both Aydin and Geske were already dead when local police discovered their bodies. Police had received a call from a nearby office in the building about a "disturbance" happening in the Christian publishing house's third-floor office.
Although Yuksel was still breathing and rushed to a nearby hospital for massive blood transfusions, he expired soon afterwards.
When police stormed the building, one of the killers threw himself from the third story to the street, suffering a broken leg and severe head injuries. The other four suspects were apprehended as they tried to flee the building, still holding their bloodied knives.
During interrogation, the four confessed killers claimed the attack had been planned by the fifth suspect, now hospitalized in serious condition. But Thursday Malatya Gov. Halil Ibrahim Dasoz announced that five additional suspects had been arrested in the police investigation.
Turkish government leaders were quick to denounce the murders and promise a full investigation. The police, meanwhile, fielded conjecture that the suspects were linked to the Turkish Hizbollah, a Kurdish Islamic movement calling for a Muslim state in southeastern Turkey.
According to Zirve Publishing's general manager, Hamza Ozant, the company's Malatya staff had received death threats in recent months. All three of the men worked in the office and attended the local 30-member Kurtulus Protestant Church pastored by Aydin.
Aydin is survived by his wife, Semse, and a son and daughter, both preschool age. Geske with his wife Susanne had two sons and a daughter, ages 8 to 13 years. Yuksel was engaged to be married within a few months.
Forensic authorities surrendered Yuksel's body last night to his family, who buried him Thursday morning in his home village in Elazig. Aydin's funeral has been set for Saturday afternoon (April 21), at the Anglican Church in Izmir, his home city in western Turkey. It is not yet known whether Geske's widow will decide to inter his body in Malatya or Germany.
In a bold initiative Thursday, Pastor Ihsan Ozbek, chairman of the Alliance of Protestant Churches in Turkey, led a press conference broadcast live from Malatya by CNN-TURK and shown simultaneously on several other TV channels.
Flanked by the churches' legal representative, Orhan Kemal Cengiz, and Istanbul pastor Bedri Peker, Ihsan distributed a forthright press release to the Turkish media headlined, "A Horrible Brutality, But Not a Surprise."
"Yesterday, Turkey was buried in the darkness of the Middle Ages," Ozbek declared.
He compared the nation's ongoing conspiracy theories and missionary phobias to the witch-hunts of the Middle Ages.
"We know this will not be the last [martyr]. But with all our hearts we wish it would be the last," Ozbek said.
First Convert Martyrs
Wednesday's deadly attack was the first known martyrdom of Turkish converts from Islam since the founding of the Turkish Republic in 1923.
But it was the third tragic incident targeting Christians in Turkey in the past 15 months to spark major international media coverage. Last year an Italian Catholic priest was shot to death while kneeling in his church in the Black Sea port city of Trabzon.
This past January, a prominent Turkish journalist of Armenian Christian descent, Hrant Dink, was murdered in Istanbul.
Over the past three years, top government officials have been accused of fanning growing hostility against non-Muslims by openly criticizing Christian missionary activities. Local prosecutors and police authorities are often reluctant to pursue reported incidents of vandalism or threats against church buildings or personnel.
The last deadly attack targeting Turkish converts to Christianity took place in Gaziantep in 1997, when an extremist Islamist group bombed a Christian bookstand at a local fair, killing a small child and injuring many bystanders. The culprits were arrested and sentenced to heavy prison terms.

The murders of these innocent people are horrible. However, what Christian missionaries are doing in Turkey is unacceptable. They go to places where poor people live and promise them money if they convert. The two Turkish converts in this case were actually two mental patients who could not think for themselves. So what do the missionaries do? They find two mentally ill people and promise them the paradise in return for becoming converts. This is why Christian missionaries are not welcome in Turkey. Their tactics are too sleazy. Furthermore, Ataturk the founder of Turkey established Turkey on secular principles. He warned Turks the biggest danger to the young Turkish republic is religion. Christian missionaries please leave Turks alone. They have had enough problems with religious zealots already througout their history and no matter what you do you will have no major number of converts other than mentally sick who can't think for themselves.
It is sad that Diocletian thinks like the peolpe from his homeland: what the state or the traditions of his country (or leading party) says is more important than what I, as a free person, I believe that is best and plausible for me to believe. Maybe Christianity is better than Islam, or better than Communism or Budhism or Confucianism. Or maybe the Islam or Communism is better that Christianity. Why should I have not the right to evaluate and choose; Why should the other dictate me what to believe? God would not ask me at the great Day of Judgement what the other people allowed me to believe; He would ask me why I did not follow the truth (and good), whatever this truth was. I lived in Romania, Diocletian, and I know what I say (probably as well as you know...).
Dn. Jason
On April 24th, the Armenian Christian community commemorated the 92nd anniversary of the genocide of 1.5 million Christian Armenians at the hands of the Ottoman Turks in 1915. Many people wonder why the Armenian community still commemorates this event after 92 years. Last weeks gruesome killings were one reason why. It is hard to believe that Christianity Today could be so ignorant of the direct historical precident in Turkey for persecution, torcher and direct slaughter of the country's Christians. Armenians join together in praying for these martyrs for Christ, and ask Christians around the world to educate themselves on centuries of continued Turkish violence against Christians. How many people must be killed before we become motivated to demand responsiblity and change from our favorite Middle Eastern ally, Turkey?
As Bush said that crusade is started from the first day and US and Britain start illegal war on Iraq and killing everyday more the 50 innocent Muslims women and children and nobody said a single word of sympathy even the Muslim world who is responsible of that: A United Nation who only favours US; or US & UN one sided Pro israeli support.... Germany and France only protest but cannot do anything against US weapons supremacy. Justice should be equal for everyone. Mad and dumb Bush start the third World War on Islam & Muslims. See what will happen if all Muslim countries starts and join this so called war on Terror against US & Britains. Blood of Muslims are also red. This can lead to unity of the Muslim and another SALADIN born every 1000 years. Wait for Saladin or stop this discrimintaions against Relgions. Every one is following religions like Sikhs, Christians and Hindus and show all thhis in there movies but when Muslim do this they called them extremist Rubbish.
I used to feel the same way about Islam and Muslims until I was in a refugee camp in Germany. A Bosnian woman related her stay in a German hospital and how she couldn't sleep because of the cross hanging on the wall. To her, the cross represented the Christians who raped her and killed her loved ones. Proof that our focus is wrong when it is on either Islam or Christianity (or its symbols)... our focus should only be on Christ and Him alone.

Loading... Jerusalem: One City, Three Faiths (1996)by Karen Armstrong
None. Loading...
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. What a fantastic history, focusing solely on the development of Jerusalem from ~2300 BCE to 1996 CE (when the book was published), Armstrong puts into context the physical, geographical, spiritual, religious and emotional reactions towards Jerusalem. My overly simplistic view of history is that it's all about the land grab and the completely arrogant view that "I" am perfectly in the right and "you" are completely in the wrong and should be punished for that. The history of Jerusalem reads a lot like that. It's interesting to me how all three religions have turned away from the founding compassionate tenets of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity and are bent on the others' destruction. I now have a better understanding of the issues (and the history), and also a better understanding of why finding peace in the Middle East is so fraught with peril. wishlist The world needs more books like this one. Professional historians will be able to pick nits, but this remains an honest narrative of perhaps the world's most remarkable city, told in a spirit of humanity and respect for all three faiths, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The book provides invaluable historical perspective on the struggle in our own time over the State of Israel. However it is not a polemic, and only the most diehard partisans will take issue with Karen Armstrong's well founded perspective. One city. Three faiths. Christians, Jews, and Muslims all lay claim to the Holy City. Armstrong's treatment is impartial as usual, more interested in promoting understanding than any one belief system. She leads us through 4,000 years of history, as this turbulent landmark in the middle of nowhere grew from a tribal village into a cultural and religious phenomenon. The book of Revelation, about Jerusalem: "The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed." Is this a prophetic inevitability, or is there hope for peace? I'm one of the many with a placard hanging on my wall, requesting that we pray for the peace of Jerusalem. I read Armstrong's book as research for my own book about Revelation, because Jerusalem, both the Old and the New, is the focal point of John's Apocalypse. Karen's topic is extremely important for today's world of religious unease, and it's an absolutely fascinating topic. Unfortunately, I found the writing to be a bit more dry than usual for Armstrong. I think the book could have been condensed to about 2/3rd its size. But by the time you finish—if you're able—you'll have a better grasp of the bitterness and misunderstanding, and why all three religions claim Jerusalem as their own. Historical survey of the struggle over control of Jerusalem through the ages. no reviews | add a review
References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in English (8)Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0345391683, Paperback)Jerusalem is the most famous city on the planet, a place vibrantly imagined even by people who have never been there. Karen Armstrong, author of the best-selling A History of God, shows why it might also be the most interesting, a sacred ground for rival Christians, Jews and Muslims. Much of her book is devoted to 5,000 years of history, but all of it addresses a longstanding and contemporary fascination unmatched by any other urban center.(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:35:39 -0400) Makes clear that the emotions binding such of the faiths to Jerusalem have grown even more powerful when a community's link to the city has been reestablished. |

GTS is Not HelpfulSheese, the GTS is definitely not the most helpful function in the game. And I'm talking about both versions: regular and Negotiations.GTS is Not Helpful1 year ago in Personal More Like This
The regular GTS is not helpful for multiple reasons:
1. You can only get Pokemon in your Pokedex this way (but that's not much of a problem since I got both Politoed and Vulpix in my Pokedex. It's mainly a problem for when I'm trying to get a Vullaby)
2. It's impossible to tell what abilities you're going to get until you get it (I've ended up a a LOT of Vulpixs, all of which have Flash Fire. Seriously, I want one with Drought.) If Nintendo plans to include the GTS in any future Pokemon games, they should at least include a set to go with 'Name', 'Gender', and 'Level' called 'Abilities', so people could have a chance to get the Pokemon with the RIGHT ability.
3. Everytime I try to search for a Politoed, I always see trainers requesting for Pokemon like Zekrom and Reshiram, and they need to be LEVEL 9 OR UNDER! SERIOUSLY, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE A LEVEL

Other then the prologue having the tattle partner and chapter 7 having no partner, any kind of partner can be done. And now.
Chapter 1: I'd prefer a plains like area, but I can settle for a forest.
Chapter 5: Though I'd like there to be some type of forest on it. It doesn't have to be a tropical island, it DOES however have to be an island.
Chapter 7: Everything from before only it can be anything mysterious.
It may not be many changes, but it does flex it out a bit. I'll try to get the story in my next journal.
We gotta talkI'M RETIRING!!! Just kidding. I will however be gone for a week for summer camp(yes I'm going to summer camp, I'm only 14 you know) so I thought I'd tell you all. I'm also prepared to announce something. You see, as you all may know, I've got a lot of projects to finish, where to begin, Paper Mario The Necklace of Life, Paper Mario The Cosmo Ship, Paper Luigi Conundrum Undone, and FMD to name the major ones.

Ancient Kirby Artworkshttp://sta.sh/2swt7fp0atfAncient Kirby Artworks8 months ago in Personal More Like This
Eventually I'll move the lot of these pictures to my gallery/scraps, but I wanted to put them all up in one place for now until I can give them decent descriptions. There were a lot of really cool pieces I had forgotten about that I found in my old art that I just had to share them. xD
These are pretty much every old piece of Kirby art I could find in my box of old junk that I actually would date/keep when I was starting to get truly into art about 06-07, so if I did any kirby stuff earlier than that it's pretty much long gone :iconfinallyplz:
The poster was actually the coolest find of the bunch, I comPLETELY forgot that thing existed. No clue where I got such huge paper at the time either, the stuff was at least 2 1/2 feet long
KirbeeeehI just recently rented Kirby's Dream Collection from Gamefly and have gotten back into the series :,D Been playing out Kirby 64 for the first time and am in love with it.

Since April 12, that disgusting sibling of mine has been living in the same house with a man who is over 45 years old. Not to mention, he's been married twice already and has 4 kids aged under 13 and younger. And he and his second wife aren't officially divorced, so they're still married, but she no longer lives there.
So my beautiful sister is having sex with a married and much older man.
She has put on so much weight since she left home, in the stomach, her behind, her legs, arms and even her face has completely changed. This weight is also due to contraceptive pills.
On Facebook last night, she changed her relationship status to 'In A Relationship', this means she and that psycho are officially dating. I spoke to her, (the first time in 4 months) and this is what happened:

When will our journey end? Dunno
One month ago today, a man and his dog left the comfort of their Baltimore rowhouse and set forth across America on a journey with no firm destination and of no definite duration.
An unemployed Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and soon to be published author (the man, not the dog), he decided he could keep doing his website and look for jobs just as easily on the road as he could from home — and in the process feel a little less dejected and rejected, a little more alive, perhaps, even, at 56, a little less old.
Don't get him wrong, he loved his routine, and so did his dog — but within routine, you can also find the word rut, and sometimes there's not much different between the two.
Rather than pay for housing, he decided to pack up his website, his dog and himself and hit the road, documenting their adventures — a la John Steinbeck and Charley, but with the modern-day benefits of Mapquest, Google, WordPress and cellphone – all while trying to get by on the amount he once paid for rent, roughly $1,000 a month.
After one month, and 3,300 miles, he — who, in case you haven't figured it out, is me — can report that he nearly met that goal; that his dog, himself and, we hope, the website are all better for the experience; and that the journey is going to continue for a period that, like the man, will be indefinite.
Life on the road has its downside — the constant packing and unpacking; the where did I put my so and so; the heat; the where am I going to stay tonight; the expense, which we try our best to mitigate; and the uncertainty, which can be both good and bad.
But the gypsy in us — and there's more gypsy in us than perhaps we thought — is loving it as we drive across America, through cities large and (preferably) small, checking its pulse (it still has one), revisiting some people and places and getting acquainted with some new ones.
So far, I can report, Ace, car and I are holding up well, though just this week a "Malfunction Indicator Light" started flashing (on the car, not me or Ace). It's a little disconcerting since we're contemplating crossing a few empty deserts in the week ahead, and according to my owner's manual it could be a sign of major engine or transmission problems, or perhaps nothing at all. I think I'm glad I don't personally have a malfunction indicator light.
So far, healthwise, my only problems have been dental, even though some have questioned whether they might be mental.
A cap fell off a tooth on one side, and there was a gaping cavity (to my tongue, it felt like the Grand Canyon) on the other, making eating difficult.
A trip to the dentist would have sent me over budget, so I decided on do-it-yourself dental work. Since no pain was involved, at least if I refrained from eating, I bought a product called Dentemp O.S., and, after locating my detached cap in a pocket of last week's pants, glued it back on. I used some more of the product to fill the cavity.
Health insurance for me, like a lot of Americans, is still — despite all that reform (is it done yet?) – something my finances won't permit.
Looking at our overall spending since we departed, our biggest expense has been gas ($580 worth), followed by lodgings (eight nights in motels at $334), then food, which — if you subtract the amount spent on buying dinner for those who took me in (about $200) – was $120. That comes out to $1,034 — less than I was spending on rent and electricity during my stay-put existence.
The key to staying within my self-imposed limits is going to be mooching accommodations when I can, camping when I can, couchsurfing some more, continuing to avoid dentists, and not covering so much ground that gas eats up my budget.
Ace and I have both lost a little weight — not a bad thing for either of us — and he seems to be enjoying the trip so far. He's as eager to meet new people as he ever was, and with all the new dogs he has met, he's becoming even more sociable and reliable.
No matter where we are, he has taken to giving me a look around 11 a.m. that — and maybe this is just my imagination — seems to ask, "Is it checkout time?"
He's getting used to being a rambling dog, and next week we plan to get motoring again, heading out of Phoenix for a while and going north and then west, or maybe west and then north.
We're trying to set up doing some volunteer work at Best Friends, the Utah animal sanctuary, hoping to visit the Circle L animal rescue ranch in Prescott, and maybe will venture into California, where I've been feeling the urge to revisit Salvation Mountain — a man-made, hand-painted, mostly garbage monument (to God, not Dog) I wrote about nearly two decades ago when I traveled the country (sans dog) as a newspaper reporter. It's near the Salton Sea in an area known as Slab City, which attracts an interesting mix of vagabonds and nomads.
Our trip may or may not be a neverending journey, and it may or may not someday evolve into a second book, but this much is for sure, there's a neverending supply of stories — dog ones and people ones — out there.
And we're off to find a few more of them.

What we'd spend to save our pet
A majority of pet owners would pay $500 for life-saving veterinary care, but less than half would fork over $1,000, only a third would spend $2,000, and only about 20 percent would be willing to pay $5,000.
So says an Associated Press-Petside.com poll about the cost of health care for animals, conducted by GfK Roper Public Affairs & Media.
Only at the $500 level were dog owners (74 percent) more likely than cat owners (46 percent) to say they would likely seek treatment. In the higher price ranges, the two are about equally likely to seek vet care.
"Euthanasia is always sad but when finances have to be considered, when you feel there is a possibility you didn't or couldn't do the right thing, you feel guilty," said veterinarian Jane Shaw, director of the Argus Institute in the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences at Colorado State University. "We are at a point where we are talking about basic life needs or survival needs."
One in five pet owners said they fret a lot about being unable to afford seeing a vet. Dog owners are more likely to worry than cat owners, and low-income people are among the biggest worriers, which is probably because they have the biggest worries.
About one in four people, or 27 percent, said pet insurance is a good way to save money on vet bills, though only about 5 percent of pet owners actually have it.
The AP-Petside.com Poll was conducted April 7-12, 2010, and involved phone interviews with 1,112 pet owners nationwide. It has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.

How much is a dog's life worth?
A Wall Street Journal columnist posed that question recently after hearing from a "sizable" pack of angry readers who took him to task for lamenting how much of his paycheck was being gobbled up by medical care for his dogs.
Neal Templin, author of the Journal's "Cheapskate" column, focused on his beagle in the original column, and recent vet visits that set him back more than $1,000 each — one of which was to treat his dog for injuries received after he escaped from home and was hit by a car.
"Your dog-owning incompetence is matched only by your lack of journalistic and personal integrity in not taking responsibility for … allowing the dog to escape in the first place," one reader wrote Templin. "If your dog liked you he probably wouldn't escape or howl."
Templin noted that dogs are becoming family — not just backyard denizens.
"When I grew up in the 1960s, you took your dog to the vet for shots or perhaps to have a broken leg set. But if a dog got really sick, it died.
"It's different today. Vets do aggressive cancer surgery and hip replacements. They pump dogs full of expensive drugs for various maladies. In short, dogs get many of the same procedures we humans get. But it's not cheap, and if it's anything like human medicine, it's going to get more expensive as vets take increasingly sophisticated and heroic measures to keep dogs alive."
So the answer to the question Templin poses in his aptly-named column depends not on the dog, but on the human that owns it — and on that human's priorities.
"There are many who think burning 18 grand to keep a dog around for six or 12 extra months is madness," a Massachusettshe man wrote. "Sometimes I think so, too. But my wife died from lymphoma two years ago, and I have no children. What am I going to do, buy a bigger television set?"

Last week Building Champions had the opportunity to deliver a private Experience to one of our largest clients. Due to some recent market changes in this client's industry, the leaders of this company deeply considered whether or not to even hold this event. In the end they decided that investing in their people was too important and made the event happen. In the end, about 225 of the company's top performers were given the gift of time to reflect, plan and connect and the impact was outstanding.
Two weeks ago, our team had the opportunity to host the 2013 Experience in Central Oregon. Lives were changed, businesses were transformed and teams grew stronger.
This week we get to do it all over again. We are in Lake Tahoe for a private Experience event designed for one of our clients, PrimeLending. This company is making a huge investment in their people by giving them the gift of time to reflect, plan and connect. I look forward to seeing how their businesses and lives will be impacted.
The Experience is just days away and we are busy putting the finishing touches on this incredible event. Our team is absolutely committed to delivering excellence in all aspects of the Experience.
I look forward to spending time with all of you who will be joining us next week. It's going to be a powerful week of reflection, planning and connection!
I'll be back to my blog the week of Sept. 23.
195 miles. 12 runners per team. 1,050 teams. The biggest relay race in the world! For the past 15 years or so, we Building Champions folks have been running this crazy running race called Hood To Coast (H2C). The race is always the third Friday and Saturday of August and starts at the Timberline Lodge on Mt Hood and finishes at the coastal city of Seaside, Oregon.

Arrested Development's upcoming 14 episode fourth season is likely to be its last.
Netflix, who is releasing all episodes on the same day in May, has only signed a contract for one season and expects it to be a one-off, reports The Wrap.
With the main cast having busy schedules, the fourth season had to be designed to be filmed around their availability.
Star Jason Bateman has previously suggested the show could continue with a movie, following the Netflix season.

Heller said: I'm entering this next season with caution. It's either going to be mind-blowingly good or it will suck so bad that I will wish the Bluths never came back. If it's the former, then we will picket the internets for more seasons god damn it! I imagine if it nets Netflix a boatload of cash then they will jump at the chance of signing them on for another season.

Milky said: Heller said:I imagine if it nets Netflix a boatload of cash then they will jump at the chance of signing them on for another season.It'll be interesting to see how this and House of Cards go. Netflix don't make any money from original content, it is just a way of keeping or attracting subscribers. As the producers of House of Cards have said they have no way of tracking a shows success... Netflix just says it is doing good or bad. And they determine that by the number of times an ep has been streamed. They have no way of determining if they are getting revenue from it, unless of course they have a huge influx of members. It is an interesting experiment from Netflix, I really hope it works because House of Cards is pretty much the best show I've seen in years.

Suzanne Shaw splits from husband
Feb 14, 2012, 11:45 GMT
Suzanne Shaw has split from her husband Jason King.
The couple have decided to call time on their six-year relationship and have blamed their busy careers on the separation.
In a joint statement released today (14.02.12), the pair said: 'We had a wonderful time together and have great memories but constantly working away from each other added a lot of pressure and we have ended up growing apart.
'We are still friends and will be making sure we still have family time together for our son's sake.'
Suzanne has a seven-year-old son, Corey, from her relationship with Darren Day, which ended in 2005.
The former Hear'Say singer and DJ Jason - who is one half of radio and TV presenting duo JK and Joel with Joel Ross - dated for three years before getting engaged in 2008 and tied the knot in Christchurch, Dorset, South West England, in June 2009.
The family moved to Yorkshire after Suzanne was cast in soap opera 'Emmerdale' in April 2010 for a year, Jason is currently presenting the Heart Breakfast radio show alongside Lucy Horobin on radio station Heart Solent.
He also presents 'Flirt!TV on Tour' with Joel which sees the duo travel the UK each week to experience university night life.

Remember Heather's cleaning tip? Would you like to know what happened to me oh, about 2 hours ago?
This is my laundry room. See the broken bottle of detergent behind the hamper? It's Heather's fault.
This would be the door to the garage. Do you regularly clean the door that leads to your garage? Because it occurred to me today, that apart from the occasional wiping of the handle, I have never really spent some up close and personal time with this door.
This might be harder to see. They are little doggy prints of blue detergent that headed all over my house. Aren't they adorable? I didn't take a picture of the ones on the carpet, although you can see some of them over on the left hand side, there. Awesome.
He was a little distracted. Possibly by the fact that he has blue feet. That are sticky.
I was having such a good day today, too. School started, and then lunch with some girls, and then alone time, and I was even in a cleaning mode, until Heather ruined it all with her post that caused my detergent to leap off my machine and commit suicide because obviously, her detergent bottle and mine were very, very, close friends. I'm pretty sure they texted each other a lot.
It did not take me "fifteen minutes" to clean up, either. Oh, no. It was close to an hour, complete with a twist and fall on my butt that probably would have funny if it was caught on tape. (She lay down a bunch of newspaper. I didn't have any newspaper. I get my news online, like a normal person.) And my floor does not smell like "country breeze". Nope. I have "original scent" floors.
I think we've learned a lesson today, my friends, and just as soon as I've figured out what it is, I'll let you know. I'm pretty sure it involves avoiding laundry.

Oklahoma State has produced many standout ball carriers, enough so that many regard OSU as Running Back University.
Barry Sanders and Thurman Thomas headline a list that also includes running backs such as Terry Miller, Bob Fenimore, Ernest Anderson, David Thompson, Gerald Hudson, Vernand Morency, Tatum Bell and Dontrell Savage.
"That's what we do at Oklahoma State. We run the ball,'' said OSU running backs coach Curtis Luper, who spoke at the Enid Rotary Club luncheon Monday. "We want to win games because of us.''
The next batch of running backs in line for the Cowboys are Kendall Hunter, Beau Johnson and Keith Toston, who Luper ranks 1A, 1B and 1C in the rotation.
Last year, Hunter ran for 696 yards and four touchdowns. Johnson is a junior college transfer from Butler (Kan.) Community College, which won the NJCAA championship last year. Toston is coming off ACL knee surgery and is expected to be at full strength within a month.
"Kendall can really play,'' said Luper. "Beau is a tough, smart football player. He has a lot of intangibles. Keith has to go through some hard hits and then he'll be confident about his knee.''
The Cowboys will have to replace Savage, who now is playing for the Kansas City Chiefs. Last season, Savage was second in the Big 12 with 115 yards rushing per game.
"With Dontrell, it was more than the numbers he put up,'' said Luper. "It was the energy he brought to the game. He was always up and bouncing around. He had a high level of energy and passion. That's contagious and infectious with a football team.''
Luper said a consistent running game from the backs will help complete an OSU offense that features multi-threat quarterback Zac Robinson.
With Savage and Robinson providing most of the numbers last season, the Cowboys ranked No. 1 in the Big 12 with 243 yards rushing per game.
"We don't know for sure where our inspiration will come from. That remains to be seen,'' said Luper. "Dontrell gave us that last year. This year, it could be (tight end Brandon) Pettigrew. It could be Robinson. It could be (wide receiver) Dez (Bryant). We don't know yet, but it is a prerequisite for a successful offense.''
The backs will be operating behind an offensive line that includes former Garber High School standout Brady Bond.
Bond, a junior, is in the rotation at right tackle.
"Brady has good size (6-foot-6, 300 pounds) and he's played a lot,'' said Luper. "You can't discount experience. Brady has played in all the big games. Brady won't be in awe of anyone.''
Oklahoma State went 7-6 last season and beat Indiana in the Insight Bowl. OSU opens the season Aug. 30 in a nationally televised game at Washington State. The first of seven home games is Sept. 6 against Houston at Boone Pickens Stadium.
Luper: OSU will rely on running game

Real Car for Kids: Toyota Camatte unveiled at 2012 Tokyo Toy Show [Video]
June 14, 2012 by: Rituraj MishraThe Toyota Camatte concept has been revealed and the company chose the 2012 Tokyo Toy Show for that. It would raise the curiosity as to why a toy show and I would like to tell you because it is a car that a kid can drive. It is a real car that can be driven by kids, although Toyota has made it clear that it is not legal on roads and kids could drive this only on their private roads and properties.
Camatte comes in two different body styles and can be easily customized and repaired, which is trait ti encourage kids to get interested in the car and get a knowhow of the way cars are operated and worked upon. For safety reasons it has the feature of allowing a passenger to override steering, throttle and brakes if needed.
Our only concern is that if it's not road legal, why any kid would consider this as an option as they already have go-karts that are double the fun. Let's see how Toyota plays it down.

Today's Question
See what CafeMoms are saying about saving time this holiday season..
There are people out there that really don't bring their kids? I know many adults don't go, but thats a personal choice, how can you not help your child?
The 11yo oy up the street knocked on our door yesterday for my kids to play. My son said he couldn't because they were headed to the dentist. the boy said "that stinks you have to go to the dentist, I've never had to go". So my son says, "you've never gone"? He tells him no because his teeth are fine.
Do your kids go?

Cornish All Blacks go down to opening day defeat at Shelford
CORNISH All Blacks head coach Cliff Rainford found plenty of positives to take out of a disappointing opening-day defeat at Shelford.
The Cornishmen made the long journey back from Cambridgeshire empty handed, but Rainford felt they were architects of their own downfall.
"I was really happy with our structure and the way we approached the game, but we made several knock-ons and silly little handling errors, and it was minor mistakes that cost us the game," he said.
"Shelford never looked like creating anything of their own very much, but they were very good when we made a mistake and they countered and collected a couple of scores, which was frustrating.

"When our backs got the ball we looked very effective and we attacked well, and four times we got into their 22 and we just couldn't cross the try line.
"Our scrummaging was very good and we devastated their attacking line-out and took balls off them, and we just looked in control of the game, but when it came down to that last little bit, handling errors let us down."
Rainford was very pleased with Tom Brown's debut at tight-head prop, while centre Ryan Westren came through his first 80 minutes in almost a year on his return from a serious knee injury.
"Ryan playing a full 80 minutes was a massive positive for us," said Rainford. "There were a lot of positives that came out of the game, just not the result, and unfortunately it is a results business."
The All Blacks were without injured skipper and lock Ben Hilton, and hooker Jamie Salter, who was attending a family wedding, but Rainford is hopeful both will be back for Saturday's eagerly-awaited derby clash with Redruth at Polson Bridge.
Centre Nielson Webber is also close to a return from a knee injury.
All Blacks full-back Kieron Lewitt and Shelford fly-half Adam White (2) exchanged penalties inside the opening 24 minutes of this National Two South encounter, before home scrum-half Charlie Baker darted over from close range on the half-hour mark following good work by his forwards, and White's conversion made it 13-3 at the break.
A Lewitt penalty cut the deficit to seven points, but when the ball went loose in the 54th minute as the All Blacks tried to run out of their own 22, Baker hacked on and won the race to the touchdown.
Lewitt and White slotted further penalties, but there was no way back for the All Blacks against a side who had two players sin-binned during the contest.

Why do we ride - Tour de France poll results |
Jul 25th, 12. Everyone has a different reason as to why they ride their bike - health, transport, racing. Here are the results from our Tour de France poll about why Kiwis ride their bikes. With the Tour de France competition now closed - it's almost time to find the Felt F3 winner! - we have been looking over all the entries to ensure their validity. It has been great fun reading your responses to our daily Prize Draw questions. Thanks for taking the time to answer in the sometimes humourous spirit - it makes a great read. One of the questions we asked early on is, "What is the primary reason you ride your bike?" The results are clear, most of you ride your bike for one major reason - health and fitness. 63% of you ride your bikes for this reason. Fantastic results. Another 20% of you chose "competitiveness" as your primary reaons for riding your bike. What was suprising was the small number of readers who ride their bike primarily for transport - less than 3%. The RoadCycling team are in France at the moment and can tell you that isn't the case here. There are riders everywhere going to and from work, and tourists on rental bikes too. It shows we have got a long way to go to get bicycles back into everyday NZ life like it was 25 years ago when I rode my bike to school each day. The remaining few of you had a variety of other reasons for riding your bikes. It seems that riding gives a lot of joy and happiness to many, and you love the freedom that it provides. Here are a few of our favourite responses;
For whatever reason you have for riding your bike, congratulations. Just get out there and keep doing it. Rain or shine. Get your friends into it too because the more people who ride, the better it is for us all. Full Results - what's the primary reason you ride ...
