Greenedia.com Daily Blog Report: Al Gore awarded Nobel Peace Prize, Popular Lipsticks Contain Lead
This is a selection of today's most notable blog articles from Greenedia.com where you will find the most extensive collection of environmental blogs, videos and podcasts on the web.
Immediacy of Climate Change key to Gore's Award
The latest post from the Greenpeace Weblog has congratulated Al Gore and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on being selected for the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize. While there had been much debate over who would get the award, the post was convinced that the immediacy of the climate change problem ultimately forced the Nobel Prize Committee's hand. The post stated, "I suspect the Nobel Committee thought long and hard about the pairing, the order and the issue of climate change before making today's announcement."
Considering that the Nobel Prize is held in such high esteem, Greenpeace Weblog declared this a benchmark for those concerned about climate change. "That one of the world's most trusted and reputable institutions came out and endorsed the work of the IPCC and Gore is a sign of how far we've come on global warming." The post was also quick to demonstrate the importance of the climate change awareness movement by stating that "even George Bush now admits global warming is real and a threat."
Republicans have politicized Climate Change Debate
DeSmogBlog, a popular blog focused on the politics of climate change, has also congratulated Al Gore and the IPCC on winning the Nobel Peace. However, the post observed that Gore has become something of a scapegoat for right-wing anti-environmentalists. "Al Gore - a politician who dared to address a controversial public issue outside the conventional political process - has become a lightning rod for some hyper-political criticism." DeSmogBlog speculated that a significant amount of the political resentment stems back to Gore's role as vice president during the Clinton Administration. "It's a shame that many Republicans agreed early on to ignore the science, reasoning simply that 'if Al Gore's for it, then I must be against it.'"
The post blames Climate Change deniers for politicizing the environmental debate as a Democract versus Republican issue. DeSmogBlog was sure to mention the names of several high-profile Republicans who have broken ranks with their conservative brethren. "A lot of credit is owed to people like California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain for getting us past that political polarization."
Brand-name lipsticks contain lead
Several popular brands of lipstick have been found to contain trace amounts of lead according to a recent post from top environmental blog Treehugger. The post reported that "a test by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics found that 61% of the 33 lipsticks that they tested contained lead." Also, one third of the lipsticks that were tested in the study actually exceeded the FDA's guidelines on lead content.
Brands such as L'Oreal, Christian Dior and Cover Girl were among the offending lipsticks.
The post quoted Procter & Gamble, the makers of Cover Girl and L'Oreal cosmetics, stating that the quantity of lead in their product "is hundreds of times less than the amount that (someone) would get from eating, breathing and drinking water." The report also emphasizes that children and pregnant women are especially vulnerable to lead poisoning. Treehugger's opinion was simply "why even take the risk?"
Canada's tar sands are a lose-lose scenario
A post from Grist, a widely-read environmental blog, says that Canada should leave the oil in the Alberta tar sands in the ground. The post declared "the tar sands are doubly dirty. On the one hand, the energy-intensive conversion of the tar sands directly generates two to four times the amount of greenhouse gases per barrel of final product as the production of conventional oil." Additionally, the amount of natural gas needed to power the oil sands reduces the amount of "clean burning" fuel that can be sold to consumers. Using natural has to refine oil is, in Grist's opinion, a "lose-lose" scenario.
Canada's tar sands are also exerting a negative influence over northern Alberta's water supply. The post quoted Chris Nelder from Energy & Capital stating that "according to a recent joint study by the University of Toronto and the University of Alberta, the projected expansion of the tar sands projects will kill the Athabasca River, the only abundant source of water in the area." The author is convinced that Canada's current use of tar sands oil is just as bad as America's dependence on coal. However, Grist was not confident that Canada would shelve the plans for Alberta's tar sands, it closed the post by openly asking "is Canada wise enough not to fully develop the tar sands? As of today, the answer appears to be no."

February 2012
Another new model, Ana, came in yesterday and modeled some looks for us. She has a distinctive, exotic look that is diffcult to miss, and the model ability to go from provacative, in a Spanish inspired Bless'ed Are The Meek dress, to mod, in some vintage 70's mixed print looks. What is there not to love?
As a new feature on the blog, every week a different member of the Thrifted staff will pick their favorite item or items from the store. First up is no other than Lindsay, founder of Thrifted, who chose this really cute look, a vintage novelty chair print silk top, paired with a new flouncy Bless'ed Are The Meek mini skirt—the essence of Thrifted & Modern itself. The weather is really starting to warm up here in the San Francisco Bay Area, and this pastel look is perfect for it. Can anyone tell me if Spring is here yet?
Sarah came in and got through modeling a rack of vintage clothing as well as some new dresses in goddess speed, quite like her goddess looks. We were all obsessed with one of the new Bless'ed Are The Meek maxi dresses on her, long and flowy, but with an unexpected gunmetal hook detail all around the waist line. Take a look!

The Girls in Their Summer Dresses by Irwin Shaw
Michael held Frances' arm tightly as they walked downtown in the sunlight. They walked lightly, almost smiling, because they had slept late and had a good breakfast and it was Sunday. Michael unbuttoned his coat and let it flap around him in the mild wind. They walked, without saying anything, among the young and pleasant-looking people who somehow seem to make up most of the population of that section of New York City. |

Trains to ski resorts
Look out for a new website to be launched later this year about rail travel to ski resorts. Snowcarbon.co.uk will be a hub of useful information about
trains to the Alps
and beyond.
If you love the mountains, but hate getting up 4am for a crowded charter flight, this is for you. Trains to ski resorts are surprisingly quick, extremely comfortable and competitive on price.
The new site will be packed full of info about the best resorts to reach by train, which train journeys to choose and how to book them.

Back pain during pregnancy is a common complaint and it's no wonder. All pregnant women suffer from back ache. This is largely to the excessive load they have to carry along with their own increasing weight. You're gaining weight, you're walking in a new way, and your hormones are relaxing the muscles and ligaments throughout your body.
Your back may be one of the major areas where you'll notice the ache. Regular stretching and exercise help offset these effects by improving flexibility, strength, muscle tone, and reducing the incidence of lower back pain. Try some of the following exercises and gentle stretches to alleviate back pain.
The following are suggested exercises for each of the major muscle groups mentioned:
There are several back pain exercises during pregnancy. But all of them have to be indulged in carefully and with utmost regard to your own health and that of the baby.

Hey everyone,
My hubby and I are moving sometime in the next 3 months. . . . not quite sure where. The possibilities are Albuquerque, NM and Little Rock, AR. Anyway, I wondered if any of you live near these places, and if so, who your doctor and/or nurse practitioner are. Two compassionate nurse practitioners are the only people I can credit for any progress I've made battling diabulimia. Bad, unsympathetic Dr.'s are a huge fear of mine and I'd rather not start out in a new place getting lectured by some Ahole. Been there; done that.. . tooooo many times.
Is there a network of Dr.'s or NP that specialize in treating diabulimics?
Any feedback would be appreciated!
Depending on where you move I would love to help you find a new doc/endo. I run an organization called We Are Diabetes in the US and we help people with just this sort of thing! www.wearediabetes.org feel free to email me at the email listed on the "about us" section of the website :)

The head of the House of Representatives, who arrived to Sulaymaniyah yesterday, accompanied by a large delegation of members of the House of Representatives for the Iraqi List, the importance of the political role of President in overcoming obstacles and to reach an understanding and a comprehensive national would advance the political process and upgrading them to serve the actual needs of the Iraqi public in all areas. At the outset of the meeting, congratulated Nujaifi President Republic successfully surgery and his return to save God to the country. and across the President thanked the Speaker and the House accompanying him on the visit and feelings fraternal and wishes, pointing to the importance of work and cooperation between everyone to unite all and concerted efforts to overcome the differences between the various parties and purify the atmosphere and that helps everyone to get to best performance levels of political and service and legislative branches., said the National Alliance MP Abbas al-Bayati: The «Back Talabani mission after holding meetings in Sulaymaniyah with political leaders yielded a preliminary understanding on the importance of dialogue and political reform and arrival to Baghdad means that the capital will see mobility and range of form of bilateral meetings and triple ». Al-Bayati said in a statement »Center Brief for the Iraqi Media Network», that «President Talabani touches serious desire of the parties to work together to find a solution to political problems», indicating that «there are three options for the crisis, the first: to keep crisis consuming and draining and paralyze the country and institutions, secondly: to go to the national reform and political basis of the constitution, Third: we go to early elections and give honesty to the people to elect of discretion in the administration of the country for the next stage ». and continued: «national meeting to be held is to serve home and solve problems of the country, it does not participate in the solution to bear responsibility before the people and give justifications because the Iraqis know that the crisis created by politicians did not come from heaven For political blocs resolved », adding that« reform project adopted by the coalition to take into consideration all the papers, including Arbil first, second and third papers Najaf and found common nationally viable solution ..

Osman said in a statement» Center Brief Media Network Iraqi »:» I think that the solution is to change the style of administration of the country because the continuation of the crisis and not to go to the dialogue or sitting at a table dialogue will contribute to pushing the country into the unknown, so the best option for all political forces is dialogue and respond to an invitation Talabani to find participants, either boycott it ADHD real project or initiative of the President of the Republic. were senior political sources told Bri Center for the Iraqi Media Network, the orientation of the President of the Republic to make a new initiative to resolve political differences, indicating that the initiative includes the invitation to the meeting National and adopt the reformist paper as a general method, in addition to a new paragraph provides framing relations and agreed to reset crises and draw a new map based on the Constitution and previous agreements during the next term.

Harrisburg police have charged a man with reckless endangerment for a vehicle pursuit in the city and have arrested his passenger for firing a gun during a foot chase.
Carlos Smith, 27, was also charged with escape, fleeing and eluding, driving while under suspension, hindering apprehension, and several traffic offenses, according to police.
His passenger, 34-year-old James Porter, was additionally charged with aggravated assault, and drug and firearms offenses, police said.
Police said the incident began early Sunday in the 600 block of Maclay Street when the officer saw Smith driving at a high rate of speed. The officer lost sight of the car but saw it again two hours later near North 6th and Maclay streets, where again the driver sped away.
The officer was able to stop the car in the 2100 block of Jefferson Street, but Smith and Porter defied orders to remain in the car. Porter picked up a revolver from the roadway and fled with the handgun, police said.
As Porter rounded a building, the officer heard a shot and stopped the foot chase. At the same time, Smith jumped in the car and fled, police said.
Police in neighboring Susquehanna Township eventually stopped Smith and took him into custody. Porter was arrested a short time later in an Uptown bar and was in possession of crack cocaine and drug paraphernalia, police said.
Both men were sent to the Dauphin County Prison in lieu of bail.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is the long-awaited, heavily hyped fourth instalment of a phenomenally successful series that has captured the imagination of millions of readers, young and old, across the globe. For J K Rowling the pressure is certainly on to continue to come up with thrilling, pacey storylines that allow her hero to mature into a young man without detracting from the magical secret that has made Harry into a superstar. In this book, the teenage Harry has a certain gawky charm that fits well with his advancing adolescence. As the story moves on, Harry too moves on to a new level of maturity that leaves the reader wondering how he will learn from his experiences, and liking him all the more as a character.
Once returned to Hogwarts after his summer holiday with the dreadful Dursleys and an extraordinary outing to the Quidditch World Cup, the 14-year-old Harry and his fellow pupils are enraptured by the promise of the Triwizard Tournament: an ancient, ritualistic tournament that brings Hogwarts together with two other schools of wizardry--Durmstrang and Beauxbatons--in heated competition. But when Harry's name is pulled from the Goblet of Fire, and he is chosen to champion Hogwarts in the tournament, the trouble really begins. Still reeling from the effects of a terrifying nightmare that has left him shaken, and with the lightning-shaped scar on his head throbbing with pain (a sure sign that the evil Voldemort, Harry's sworn enemy, is close), Harry becomes at once the most popular boy in school. Yet, despite his fame, he is totally unprepared for the furore that follows.
This is a hefty volume: 636 pages, of which probably at least 200 could have been cut without detracting from the story. The weight and complexity of the book is perhaps a hint that Rowling now has her eye sharply focused on her adult audience, and the average child-reader (particularly one who is coming to Harry Potter for the first time) may well find its girth daunting. Rowling's ironic and pointed observations on tabloid journalism and the nature of media hype is just one of the references littered through the book that will tickle the grown-ups but may well fly over the heads of her young fans.
However, after a slow start, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire really starts to sparkle halfway through with Rowling's familiar magic (and yes, there is a death--sudden and tragic--and yes, Harry does start to notice girls). The crux of this story, however, is Harry's gradual coming-of-age and his handling of the increasingly determined threats to his own life.
This book is pivotal, not just for the author for whom the heat is well and truly on, but for Harry and his readers who, by the last chapter, are left in little doubt that there is much more to come. (Ages 10 to adult) --Susan Harrison -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verf³gbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.
Rowling beautifully parodies our Muggle world, starting with the Quiddich World Cup and the ever-horrible Dursleys. Then the actual plot starts: There are other wizarding schools apart from Hogwarts, and each of them sends a representative to compete in the Triwizard Tournament. Harry is chosen as the Hogwarts Champion, except that he didn't even enter, so someone with bad intentions has to be behind this. Who? He Who Must Not Be Named, of course.
As in the previous books, Rowling presents us with a twisted and changing story and lots of strange behaviour from everyone that only makes sense right at the end. The only thing I really want to complain about is the House-Elves subplot, which goes nowhere and forces us to endure Dobby's presence, which is very annoying. But apart from that, Rowling certainly has a knack for moving the story along while at the same time giving us new insights into a number of characters, such as Neville Longbottom and my absolute favourite, Snape. In this book, Snape is getting a more intriguing character than ever, and I'm hoping to hear a lot more about him in the fifth part, which is bound to be at least as dark and interesting as the fourth one.
Nach einigen Monaten erfolgreichen Widerstands fielen mir bei der Suche nach einem Weihnachtsgeschenk für meine Freundin die Potter-Bücher wieder ins Auge und ich fing an zu überlegen: "Ein Kinderbuch? Hmm, nicht dass sie sich jetzt aufregt und meint, ich will sie geistig nicht genug fordern". Schließlich schob ich meine Bedenken aber beiseite und kaufte den ersten Band. Meine Freundin war darüber erfreut (wenn auch nicht begeistert), las ihn und sagte, dass es ihr gefiel, aber dass es wohl tatsächlich eher was für Kinder sei. Trotz meiner somit eigentlich bestätigten Vorurteile beschloß ich dann aber, es auch einmal selbst zu lesen, wenigstens anzulesen, um mir ein eigenes Urteil bilden zu können. Und was soll ich sagen? Es war richtig gut! Ich genoss die Phantasie, die tollen Schauplätze, die sympathischen (und auch die unsympathischen) Hauptfiguren und fand es stets unterhaltend. Am Ende war ich wirklich angetan, wenn es auch besonders zum Schluss seine Kinderbuchwurzeln nicht verleugnen konnte.
Wohlgemerkt, ich war angetan, aber noch nicht begeistert.

Response to
give me a break
By your logic, I guess the alums at Wake (losing to UNC Greensboro), Penn State (lost to W&M), U. Conn (lost to Sienna)and UCLA (lost to Northwestern) should all be embarrassed. In a game like soccer, you are going to have some close games (that perhaps shouldn't be close) and lose some games you shouldn't lose. Correct me if I am wrong but that Elite Eight team you are referring to lost to Denver and barely beat UAB.

UNC Greensboro, W&M, and Denver are good sides.

text: The Judas Kiss TicketsTransferring to the Duke of York's Theatre following an acclaimed season at the Hampstead Theatre, Rupert Everett and Freddie Fox star in Neil Armfield's revival of David Hare's 1998 play The Judas Kiss, a compelling drama offering a fascinating insight into Oscar Wilde's ill-fated relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas. It is 1895 and Irish playwright Oscar Wilde's masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest, is playing in the West End after a triumphant premiere, but already the wheels are in motion which will lead to his imprisonment, downfall and vilification. Forced to make a choice between his self-obsessed lover and his freedom, the ever romantic Wilde embarks on a course towards self-destruction… Hare's play focuses on two critical moments in Wilde's last years – the eve of his arrest at the Cadogan Hotel after vowing to stay in England and a night in Naples after his release from two years imprisonment when the lover for whom he risked everything cruelly betrays him. Please note that this production contains scenes of an adult nature. Running Time Address |

Contemporary Hi-Fi speakers that introduce the golden era of high-fidelity to the wireless digital generation
MARLBORO, N.J., Sept. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- KEF has announced the introduction of the X300A Wireless Digital Hi-Fi Speaker System – the wireless version of KEF's popular X300A desktop speakers.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130919/SF82762)
KEF's X300A Wireless is a premium, active design combining all of the advantages of the original X300A with the added convenience of wireless streaming via Airplay or DLNA from most Apple or Android devices.
With KEF's award-winning Uni-Q drivers, four dedicated amplifiers (two per speaker in this true active design), two discrete high-quality DACs and a high resolution 96kHz/24-bit distortion-free digital USB connection in wired mode, the X300A Wireless has everything consumers need to turn a straightforward digital desktop into a true audiophile environment.
Configuring the X300A Wireless couldn't be easier with the quick and simple 'setup wizard' (for OS X and Windows), available for download from KEF.com.
Comparable with the best pro-audio monitors on the market today, the KEF X300A Wireless has two class AB audiophile-grade amps in each speaker, one for the LF/MF and one for HF. Because the high frequencies are driven separately from the mid- and low-frequencies, the sound is much cleaner at high levels.
The X300A's low noise and excellent headroom and dynamic reproduction are possible because of the audiophile grade linear power supply and toroidal transformer in each cabinet.
To ensure optimum performance, the X300A was designed with the ability to switch between desk, free space and desk/wall modes, to adjust the equalization for location (desk and stand modes are selected via a switch on the rear panel of the master speaker; wall mode is adjusted using a foam plug for the rear reflex port).
For true audiophile performance the X300A features a Uni-Q driver derived from KEF's flagship Blade.
The X300A Wireless speaker now features two finishes: Gunmetal and Linear White. Both contemporary finishes complement the latest in modern PC/laptop design, and blend beautifully with any interior space.
Available Finishes: Gunmetal and Linear White
MSRP: $999.99 (U.S.) and $1,099.99 (Canadian) per pair.
About KEF
KEF's mission has always been the continuing quest to find a better way to accurately reproduce sound. Since the company's establishment in Maidstone, Kent in 1961, by Raymond Cooke O.B.E., KEF has maintained a flair for unusual and controversial speaker engineering, design and material use. KEF has always driven innovation in sound with examples including its iconic 'egg', Muon and Blade speakers and, recently, the globally acclaimed, award-winning LS50. KEF is a member of the Gold Peak Group and its products are available in more than 60 countries. In 2011, KEF celebrated its 50th anniversary and continues its commitment to building on its strong heritage.

If there is one thing the boys of One Direction are known for, it would be there brotherly love for each other. Yet, some addicted and fairly obsessed fans think it's more than just brotherly love and continue to pester the boys about who they would most likely date in the group.
Well, one member of the British boy band, Harry Styles, finally reveals who he would date among the five.
Some have been continuously pairing the cougar hunter, Harry Styles with Louis Tomlinson. In fact, "Directioners" have even coined the name "Stylinson" in honor of the brotherly "gay" love. Well, Louis had slammed such rumors down the drain and passed it off as simply being closer than brothers.
"This is a subject that was funny at first but now is actually hard to deal with, as I am in a relationship," explained Louis in an interview with Tumblr Storyboard, adding, "Me and Harry are best friends. People look into our every move - it is actually affecting the way me and Harry are in public."
In fact, the way Louis Tomlinson treats Harry Styles is no different with the way he treats the other boys in the group namely Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Niall Horan.
We want to joke around, but there seems to be a different rumour every time we do anything," says Louis, adding, "I act the same way with Harry as I do any of the other boys."
Well, that explanation seemed to pipe down the rumor mill a tiny bit. However, thanks to Harry's all out confession on whom he'd most likely date in the group, if chances would arise, fans are in an all-new rampage over the brotherly love.
"I think I'd go out with Liam because he's a genuine, kind-hearted boy," admitted Styles in an interview with Top of the Pops Magazine.
Now, before fan girls of the boys go on thinking that there is something between Styles and Payne, there is nothing in between the lines. Styles had merely shared such sentiment saying that Payne is most likely the most genuine male in the group who would treat his girlfriend just fine.
"Someone being genuine is really important to me. I think if you were his girlfriend, he would treat you really well," explains Styles.

Witaj America, Witaj Polksa (Hello America, Hello Poland)
To Purchase Contact 23 Sandy Gallery
Stiff Leaf and Do Si Do binding. Inkjet and letterpress print on Mohawk Superfine and Hosokawa Ohban Japanese paper, archival ink. 5 x 7 x 1 inches. 12 pages. Edition of 32.
Artist Statement
This book, Witaj America, Witaj Polksa (Hello America, Hello Poland) seeks to become an important individual exploration as I continue to discover my personal approach towards a visual language, as well as contributing to contemporary societal dialog. This book seeks to interplay between personal narratives and historical events through the use of the collage form. The first side of the do-si-do combines subject matter, which consists of mainly historical events and contexts, linear and non-linear memories that have occurred in my grandmother's past. The text was taken through extensive interviewing. The second section of the do-si-do connects to my own life and more recent national and international events. The project grew out of a trip I took to Poland with my eighty-six year old Grandmother to explore her Polish ancestry. The book details the story of their immigration to America and her life over the decades. The book unites our lives and as well as areas where we depart and have our differences.
The original one-of-a-kind book contains handmade collages. The edition contains scans of the collages with letterpressed text printed on Japanese paper and affixed to the collages. The goal was to give the sensibility of a collage through the use of the letterpress text. The gradual change in typography shows the differences between our generations.All images and text copyright the artist. All rights reserved.

Quotes with independence
We found 31 quotes.
Let's face it. In most of life we really are interdependent. We need each other. Staunch independence is an illusion, but heavy dependence isn't healthy, either. The only position of long-term strength is interdependence: win/win.
Those who really desire to attain an independence, have only set their minds upon it, and adopt the proper means, as they do in regard to any other object which they wish to accomplish, and the thing is easily done.
Man has lost the basic skill of the ape, the ability to scratch its back. Which gave it extraordinary independence, and the liberty to associate for reasons other than the need for mutual back-scratching.
You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating the very phrases which our founding fathers used in the struggle for independence.
Without moral and intellectual independence, there is no anchor for national independence.
Painful for a person is rebellious independence, only in loving companionship with his associates does a person feel safe: Only in reverently bowing down before the higher does a person feel exalted.
Scottish writer and historicus 1795-1881
Interdependency follows independence.
Nationality is the miracle of political independence; race is the principle of physical analogy.
English statesman and writer 1804-1881
Nature has never read the Declaration of Independence. It continues to make us unequal.
American historian and writer 1885-1981
In the progress of personality, first comes a declaration of independence, then a recognition of interdependence.
American Protestant Clergyman and Writer 1852--1933

text: Released: September 30, 2002 Racing-Striped Bugs Just Seeking Shelter MANHATTAN, Kan. Through most of the year, Kansans hardly notice box elder bugs even though the nymphs are bright red and the adults are brown-black with red racing stripes. When the weather cools off, however, box elder bugs can start congregating by the thousands on the sunny sides of homes and other buildings. "That can be a little worrisome. But these bugs also can become household pests as they crowd into cracks and crevices, looking for shelter. Some may make their way into wall voids, where theyll hibernate through winter. Others may explore further and end up flying around rooms, accumulating in light fixtures, and leaving fecal matter on curtains and drapes," said Leroy Brooks, entomologist with Kansas State University Research and Extension. The bugs can emerge as an indoor nuisance during wintertime warm spells, too. But, box elder bugs dont bite, Brooks said. They dont harm buildings, furniture, clothes or food unless you smash them, in which case theyll leave a stain and bad smell. In some cases, they also can be fairly easy to control without chemicals. "You may be able to cut down a nearby female box elder tree the bugs usual host. The female trees produce the seed pods the bugs use for food," Brooks said. "Golden rain trees are the host of the box elder bugs pesky and very similar-acting first cousin, the red-shouldered bug. "Results from this approach arent guaranteed, though, because these bugs can fly. So your neighbors trees could also be a source of infestation." Other deterrents: Remove stacked lumber, firewood and other yard clutter that could offer winter shelter. Caulk, putty or weatherstrip potential entry points to the house. Vacuum up bugs that make it into living spaces and then seal and dispose of the bag. "If bugs are congregating outdoors in an accessible location, you can eliminate them by pouring boiling water on them, while its still at least 165 to 185 degrees. Thats not easy, of course, and it might be dangerous to try," Brooks said. "Or, you can spray the bugs with a solution of about one-half cup laundry detergent in a gallon of water, repeating whenever more bugs take the first congregations place." Products labeled for outdoor nuisance insects can help if these non-chemical options fail. "Were seeing both safer and more effective products being marketed today, as compared to just a few years ago. But youll probably have to do some searching to find them," the entomologist said. "Look for products listing cyfluthrin, permethrin or cypermethrin as an active ingredient. Check to see if the label has the box elder bug listed. Red-shouldered bug probably wont be included separately." For treating small areas, such as a front porch or door steps, a one- or two-quart spray bottle of read-to-use insecticide is likely to be the faster, safer and more convenient choice, Brooks said. For treating larger areas, a product concentrate (to be mixed with water), applied with a pump-up or hose-end sprayer, will be the more practical option. -30- K-State Research and Extension is a short name for the Kansas State University Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, a program designed to generate and distribute useful knowledge for the well-being of Kansans. Supported by county, state, federal and private funds, the program has county Extension offices, experiment fields, area Extension offices and regional research centers statewide. Its headquarters is on the K-State campus, Manhattan. Story by: Leroy Brooks is at 785-532-4750 |

TOPEKA, Kan. (Aug. 24, 2004) – With the early entry deadline past, the 2004 edition of the SCCA National Championship Runoffs® Presented by Kohler looks to be the biggest collection of top Club Racing drivers ever, with nearly 800 drivers pre-registered for the Sept. 21-26 event at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.Online entries closed Aug. 20, and 795 entries were already received for the 41st running of the SCCA Runoffs. With two weekends of SCCA Club Racing National events remaining, the number of drivers eligible for the event will not be known until just after Labor Day Weekend, but the current number eclipses previous marks at this time.Last year, a record 696 drivers took to the track during the week-long National Championship event, eclipsing the 1995 event by one. The total number of entries at this point last year, was a then-record 770, of which approximately 50 did not meet the final requirements to make the event."We are tracking toward a record-breaking 700 competitors for the Runoffs, which means that our Club Racing program participation is as healthy as ever," SCCA President and CEO Steve Johnson said. "Despite concerns of a negative impact to the event due to economic issues, the high numbers demonstrate that our racers continue to place a high value on their SCCA Club Racing competition."As is traditionally the case, Formula Vee has is the largest field, with 53 entries, followed by E Production (48), Showroom Stock C (45), American Sedan and F Production (43).For more information, including a full entry list, visit the SCCA Runoffs homepage at http://www.scca.com/Event/Event.asp?Ref=04Runoffs.-30-Link to story: http://www.scca.com/News/News.asp?Ref=121

There's no denying that Curse of Chucky (review) kicked a copious amount of ass, and now that the franchise is hotter than ever, word has come from franchise champion and Curse director Don Mancini that the evil little guy will indeed be back for round seven!
Our hope is that both Jennifer Tilly and Alex Vincent return with Fiona Dourif, who was incredible in the last feature.
Written and directed by Mancini, Curse of Chucky found a family imperiled by the murderous doll that launched a generation's nightmares – determined to finish a job that was started long ago. The film stars Fiona Dourif (The Master, "True Blood"), A Martinez ("Longmire," "General Hospital"), Danielle Bisutti (Get Smart, "CSI: Miami") and Brennan Elliott ("Flight 93," Double Jeopardy), with Brad Dourif (The Lord of the Rings) once again providing the voice of Chucky, the homicidal plaything inhabited by the spirit of notorious serial killer Charles Lee Ray. »

After a day of giving thanks, eating turkey, and watching TV with the family, a common impulse is to get out of the house and go shopping. Just kidding! Instead of braving the Black Friday brawls, sit back and relax with even more TV marathons. (That's what Cyber Monday is for, isn't it?) Standouts include complete(-ish) sets of favorite franchises such as Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Wars, and Star Trek, as well as guilty-pleasure reality series like House Hunters International and Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta.

With staggering sex appeal and serious star power that has lasted generations, Mick Jagger is more than a man; he's an icon. Which makes casting someone to play his younger self in a movie a pretty daunting endeavor. (Like casting Freddie Mercury almost!) But at long last the search of Get On Up filmmakers has ended, as THR announces Nick Eversman has signed on to play the Rolling Stones front man in the James Brown biopic. Eversman has an impressive list of film and TV credits considering he only made his screen debut in 2009 in a little-known crime-drama called Innocent. Since then, he has appeared in televisions shows like The Missing, CSI: Miami and House, as well as landed roles in movies like Hellraiser: Revelations, Vampires Suck, and the horror-thriller The Depraved. However, he might be best recognized as a series regular on the new CW sci-fi show The Tomorrow »

Read our appreciation of Steven Soderbergh's Ocean's Eleven and Ocean's Twelve here and here, respectively.
* * *
"I'm a goddamn American icon!"
Depending on where you stand on Ocean's Twelve, Ocean's Thirteen represents either a group of enormously famous actors going back to salvage the goodwill they squandered in the middle entry of the franchise, or that same group of actors going back to where it all started just to prove they can still pull one over on us. If you're bothered by even the mention of Ocean's Twelve, Ocean's Thirteen may strike you as an unnecessary extension of a series that maybe should've been a one-film wonder, but it seems, at face value, to be a safer one, at that.

With numerous detectives plying their trade on television these days it is important to cut through those that are simply in it for the money and focus on those who are good at what they do.
That means we will have no space for charlatans like Horatio Caine on the gratefully cancelled CSI: Miami who was mainly successful due to cheesy one liners and an over reliance on those who worked under his reign of terror.
Many on this list are not detectives in the common sense of the word, i.e. employed by the police, but probably have more success than their counterparts because of their avoidance of pesky things like rules, laws and regulations.
While some people will disagree with the people on this list, it's entirely open for debate – if you want to drop a comment then I'm happy to spend hours discussing whether one »

Welcome to 'Scandal', folks, the only show where an investigation into a plane crash or a political murder can be soundtracked with a jaunty Seventies disco number. With the news of Operation Remington emerging, we're left reeling along with Liv when it's revealed her mother Maya was shot down by Fitz twenty years ago. Dun-dun-dun!
In a very cool flashback, we meet Liv's mother when she says goodbye to her daughter for the last time. In the present day, we jump right back into the action, with Liv reeling from the news that Operation: Remmington shot down her mom's plane with Fitz at the helm. Her team are worried but soon Liv leaps into action, heading to the White House to meet with Fitz.
However, news of her arrival sends Fitz, Mellie and Cyrus into thinking that she's agreed to run their re-election campaign. Olivia »

Scandal has at long last cast the role of Olivia Pope's mother: Khandi Alexander, most recently of Treme, will play Maya Lewis, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Alexander played Alexx Woods on CSI: Miami for seven years, recurred as Dr. Benton's sister Jackie on ER, and played Catherine on NewsRadio for four seasons. She'll make her first appearance on Scandal this week — in flashbacks, since her character is dead. At least we all think she is, but this is Scandal. There could be a twist or five. »
