Young computer programmer fatally shot during Denver witching hour
It's not a fluke and it's not surprising to police. It's when bars close up (for now, at least) for the night and intoxicated people must filter out to their cars in the parking lot. It's when rising Denver Broncos star Darrent Williams was murdered …

David Bruton Jr.
Sat Jun 15, 2013 10:16 am Broncos DC Jack Del Rio has give S David Bruton a long look during the team's offseason program.
Fantasy Source Spin: Bruton primarily played special teams in his first four seasons and saw just 34 snaps on defense last season. At 6-2, 211 pounds, Bruton is bigger than Mike Adams, the incumbent starter at strong safety. Quentin Jammer is also posing a legitimate threat to start this year.

Mon Mar 11, 2013 11:52 am Broncos re-signed S David Bruton to a three-year, $4.5 million contract.
Fantasy Source Spin: 25-year-old Bruton doesn't play on defense, but he is a force as a special teams gunner. His return should not affect Denver's plans to upgrade at safety.

Mon Mar 11, 2013 11:52 am Broncos re-signed S David Bruton to a three-year contract.
Fantasy Source Spin: 25-year-old Bruton doesn't play on defense, but he is a force as a special teams gunner. His return should not affect Denver's plans to upgrade at safety.
Fri Feb 15, 2013 1:23 pm According to the Denver Post, the Broncos are "hoping to re-sign" free agent S David Bruton.
Fantasy Source Spin: Bruton played just 35 snaps on defense last season, but is a special teams linchpin. Unless someone wants to give the former fourth-round pick a chance on defense, Bruton should be back in Denver.

Sat Jan 14, 2012 10:29 pm Broncos S David Bruton was shaken up in the third quarter of Saturday's divisional-round playoff game at New England.
Fantasy Source Spin: Bruton is out for the game with a concussion. He was starting in place of Brian Dawkins. Backups Rahim Moore and Rafael Bush took over as the safeties.
Fri Aug 26, 2011 1:41 pm Broncos S David Bruton (concussion) returned to action Friday, participating in the pre-practice walkthrough.
Fantasy Source Spin: He should be good to go. Bruton, 24, was thankfully diagnosed with only a concussion after leaving Denver's second preseason game in an ambulance. The Notre Dame alum had 10 special teams tackles in 16 games last year.

Sun Aug 21, 2011 12:02 pm Broncos S David Bruton has been diagnosed with a concussion.
Fantasy Source Spin: That's actually good news after Bruton had to leave the stadium in an ambulance on Saturday evening. A reserve, Bruton appeared in all 16 games for the Broncos last season, notching 26 tackles. His roster spot is likely secure.
Source: Denver Post
Sun Aug 21, 2011 12:07 am Broncos S David Bruton had to be helped off the field in Saturday's preseason game and later left the stadium in an ambulance.
Fantasy Source Spin: Bruton has "a head injury," and showed preliminary symptoms of a concussion. Lindsay Jones of the Denver Post tweeted, "Scary, scary stuff," so our prayers go out to Bruton. Hopefully he's being brought to the hospital for precautionary reasons, and it's nothing more than a concussion.
Source: Lindsay Jones on Twitter
Mon Dec 13, 2010 9:55 am Broncos S David Bruton suffered a rib injury near his back in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.
Fantasy Source Spin: X-rays taken Sunday were inconclusive and Bruton will undergo more testing Monday. With fellow S Kyle McCarthy (knee) going down and veteran Brian Dawkins (knee) sidelined, the Broncos are paper thin at safety.
Source: Denver Post
Tue Oct 12, 2010 7:16 pm Special teamer David Bruton is expected to replace Brian Dawkins (knee) at strong safety Sunday against the Jets.
Fantasy Source Spin: Nate Jones is also a candidate, but the Broncos will need Bruton's size and physicality against NFL's leading tandem of LaDainian Tomlinson and Shonn Greene. The Broncos are heading into the matchup severely short-handed, giving Jets fantasy players a matchup upgrade.
Source: Denver Post
Sun Oct 3, 2010 4:15 pm Broncos S David Bruton appeared to injure his leg late in Sunday's Week 4 game against the Titans.
Fantasy Source Spin: The special teamer's injury looked pretty serious, and he had to be helped off the field.
Thu Aug 6, 2009 4:13 pm Fourth-round S David Bruton is running with the first-team defense while Brian Dawkins sits out for a few days with what's believed to be a hand injury.
Fantasy Source Spin: Bruton was expected to make an immediate impact on special teams. It doesn't say much for second-rounder Darcel McBath's progress that the fourth-rounder was the one tabbed to fill in for Dawkins.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Brickell Cosmetic Center & Spa
When husband-and-wife team Ernesto and Julie set out on their own in 2007, they were gambling on the fact that they could turn a fragile dream into a full business. Their initial lone employee has been replaced by seven in just one year, and the crew bustle through a salon that has the gleaming white expanses of a medical facility, but without the egocentric skeleton models. Patrons, who receive reminder text messages or emails before each appointment, arrive ready to work towards aesthetic goals with products from Obagi, Juvéderm, and Botox and a range of facial services. As massage services lure forth slow exhalations, the staff herald the arrival of new guests with cups of tea.
The level of attention given by the staff at Brickell Cosmetic is absolutely wonderful.Adalberto M., Yelp, 5/8/11

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

These are some installation shots from my piece, "Considerations." This was installed in the advanced ceramics class' Light Show last week in DAAP's 840 gallery.
Ignore the holes! These are merely unfired tests.
This is the third piece I'm exploring - moving away (physically) from the wall and using a set of tiny frames to make up the frame itself. Housed in the middle, safely secluded within, is a relic. Here, I have a bit of one of my grandfather's shirts. I'm very excited to see where this can go. Should there be more that one? I like that the window is small and sort of invites/requests the viewer to look very closely to see the moment, the bit. The importance.
They could be held together with glaze….or liquid nails…..should there be stitching throughout the frames? Maybe making an oval? Or actually connecting them? I'll ask my class during midterms…I sort of was imagining them pure white.
Loving how clay picks up underglaze color in its natural nooks and crannies.
This is a new page from my ceramics sketchbook. It's a list of words that I am (always, continually) thinking about; words that heavily influence and drive my work; words such as domesticity, protection, nostalgia, memory, yearning, lonesome, evocative, tenuous, history, story, beauty, narrative…..

HBO's Game of Thrones is a beautifully realized epic tale, but the show truly works because of the deft writing. The show's cutting dialogue drew fans in before the Dragons were even hatched. There's more power in the sarcasm of Queen Cersei than in a Knight's sword. Tyrion's entire character is built around the power of his mind. It is a show that celebrates the great quote.
The good guys as Pajama.ie put together a super-cut of the 100 greatest quotes from season 1-3 of Game of Thrones. Almost all of the major characters appear in this list. It's a bit surprising to see how different some actors looked during the first season of the show.
Here are a few of our favorite quotes from Game of Thrones.
Jon: All the best swords have names you know.
Arya: Sansa can have her sewing needles. I have a Needle of my own.
Jaime: Tell me, if I stabbed the Mad King is the belly instead of the back, would you admire me more?
Varys: I've always hated the bells. They ring for horror, a dead king, a city under siege.
Tyrion: A wedding.
Varys: Exactly.

A Better Way…
According to Warren Buffett, the top 2 investing rules are…
Rule No. 1: Never lose money.
Rule No. 2: Never forget rule No. 1.
What we can take from those rules is that the most important aspect of financial planning is having an investment approach that protects you from large losses and still gives you an opportunity to make money over the long-term. Very few people actually have that.

Chinese Fortune Cookie
March 2010
Chinese Fortune Cookie
While I was going to write about all the reasons that people in the first half of their work life ought to be pounding down debt so that they can make life changing investments over the next several years in equities, commodities and real estate, the U.S. and China relationship came to the fore as 130 Congress people decided that China was a currency manipulator. While there is a lot of politics being played, what most needs to be understood is that China will do what is good for China regardless of what the United States asks for in terms of currency revaluation or trade policy.
So, the question is begged, what is good for China? Ahhhh, that is a good question. Let's look at it mainly from the standpoint of the Chinese.
What is Good for China?
China is a huge creditor nation, constantly running large quarterly surpluses with other nations. Also, their people save over a third of what they earn, in fact, approaching half. When a family has enough to buy a home, they do not get the equivalent of an FHA 5% down payment loan, they put down half– and this in what many are calling a real estate bubble. If they want a second home, they generally pay cash, or close to it. It certainly is a different world in China.
On the way to saving money, the Chinese work. As it stands right now, about half of the population is still very poor, another quarter is poor and many are looking for work. With numbers like that, civil unrest is tough to thwart. High growth rates and hope for the future might be all that keeps China from having major internal problems to put down (which they have shown they will do). It should be blatantly apparent that the Chinese are not going to do anything that would slow their growth rates and ability to employ more people. The U.S. representatives however are asking that the Chinese do just that. It's not going to happen.
China's most pressing issue in maintaining production is not what many in the United States think, which they believe is having the United States to export to. The biggest issue the Chinese face is having low cost natural resources. There has been an argument made by the U.S. that the Chinese should raise the value of their currency versus the dollar in order to get those natural resources cheaper. In general, stronger currencies pay less for goods than weaker ones. The Chinese appear to realize there might be another way.
Importantly, the Chinese home market might be near the point where internal consumption, via a gradual spending of its international reserves could suit the Chinese just fine, rather than transferring the assets back via what they perceive as unfavorable currency policy. Think of things from the Chinese point of view, they feel as if they earned it, they can spend it how they want. That is certainly not much different than our mentality the past thirty years.
What Will China Do?
In his article "The Time for Lying Low Has Ended" in the Financial Times, Ian Bremmer discusses that China is beginning to embark on policies that decouple China from the United States. Why are they doing this? As mentioned above, in the simplest terms, because they believe they need to and they can. This does not mean that the United States and China will stop doing business, that will continue for many decades, however, it does likely mean that instead of exporting higher standards of living to us, they will keep that standard of living at home. That is understandable.
Over the past decade, China has been one of the main countries to support the United States by refinancing its debts. That day might be coming to an end as it could be in China's best interest to force our interest rates to go up through purchasing fewer of our treasuries. If the Chinese do this, and recent indications in bond market auctions are they have begun the process, American markets will likely continue to face some deflationary pressure as interest rates rise.
American politicians have asked for a stronger Chinese currency, interestingly, we will get one if the Chinese force our interest rates up since they are pegged to our currency. There are several moving parts here, but the easiest thing to understand is that would mean both the dollar and Yuan Renminbi would appreciate against other world currencies. For the Chinese that could be the best of all worlds, lower commodity prices, their largest export market would remain very open and a competitor on exports would gain no advantage.
Now, I do think the Chinese will throw the U.S. a bone in the form of a small adjustment to the currency parity, but it will only be enough to smooth over some flak they have been receiving from companies that export to China (which in the end lose usually anyway as the Chinese just copy whatever they were importing) and some financiers they sleep with from time to time.
Interestingly, one author discusses a potential Chinese currency devaluation. While I do not think that is likely, the argument applies to the Chinese holding their currency near the levels it is currently at.
What is Good for Americans?
At the crux of the 130 U.S. Congressmen's complaint about Chinese currency manipulation is that China's currency is incorrectly pegged to the U.S. dollar at a depressed price. That is bad for a small handful of U.S. exporters, but not many, and some financiers who have placed currency bets. It is probably good for U.S. citizens in general that the Renminbi does not drastically appreciate as it keeps our currency stronger in relative terms which means our imported oil and other imported goods are cheaper. It is a moot argument, but it is also doubtful that the Chinese currency would float much higher even if it were allowed to.
The Chinese do not let their currency float because they do not want their currency manipulated by investors. Rightly or wrongly, they presume that would happen. So think about it, if your currency was going to be manipulated, wouldn't you rather be the one doing it?
While many want to blame the Chinese for American problems, rational informed people know that is not the case. Had we not outsourced so much of our manufacturing and had embraced on a different set of social and corporate standards the past few decades, we would not be in the pickle we are in of not having enough good paying jobs. Our problems are our own. Using China at this point as a whipping boy, and embarking on a crusade against the Chinese is a dangerous game as John Mauldin discusses in his recent letter. Better to find our solutions at home at this point as there is no going back in time.
It is my opinion that jobs in the United States will only come as we rebuild our infrastructure and that the money from those projects and jobs flows again through the economy. Getting money changing hands is very important in the equation of whether we can sustain a recovery. Mauldin also discusses the issue of money velocity in a recent article. Once again, I will bang the drum for more renewable and nuclear energy development as the core to an improved long-term economy. The Chinese are doing it. Given recent developments in solar power and having seen a couple clients move to get their red badges at nuclear sites under construction, I suspect we will follow the path of energy system modernization, hopefully not too slowly.
So, while the Chinese are doing what is good for them, it is about time we did what is good for us, and that we not mistake what that is.

Tactical Asset Allocation
"The best offense is a great defense."
Are you utilizing the appropriate defensive strategies for your portfolio?
Today's economic and financial climate are extremely dangerous and could lead to a large, fast drop in asset prices. Do you have a strategy to get out of the way quickly should that happen?
"Set it and forget it" methods of investing like mutual funds, do not usually work. So-called "guaranteed" products, like annuities, are expensive, often lock people into low returns forever and aren't always as safe as advertised.
Tactical Asset Allocation using some of America's top financial minds can offer protection that sales driven investment approaches don't. Call today to find out how a tactical investment strategy can protect your retirement nest-egg and secure your lifestyle.
Punch Card Stocks
Warren Buffett has famously said that investing in only twenty stocks, represented by a punch card, could improve your financial welfare. That is the impetus behind my "Punch Card" Stock Portfolio. These are the roughly twenty companies that I believe belong in the long-term growth portion of your portfolio and mine.
Read my columns on MarketWatch, on my websites and elsewhere to see how a slow-handed and well thought out approach to stock investing can control risk and be profitable long-term. Learn more here.

Cheese Plate
I really enjoy cheese, but much to even my own surprise I've only ever ordered a cheese plate [as/instead of dessert] once in my life. It was not in Toronto, but in Rochester, England. Generally I don't eat dessert as I'm too full...but I would be willing to make an exception if I knew a restaurant had a really great cheese plate. I generally like all types of cheese, but I would be interestsed in trying some quality Canadian cheeses.
Hmm, I choose the cheese plate over dessert whenever possible! Usually accompanied by a nice port or banyuls or suchlike. Last spring, I had a tasty plate with a couple of Quebec cheeses at the Gallery Grill. On that day it was Le Kenogamie (Fromagerie Lehmann) and Allegretto (La Vache a Maillotte) but the menu changes from day to day.
(Note - they are open for lunch only)
Gallery Grill
7 Hart House Cir, Toronto, ON M5S, CA
I had the cheese plate at Torito. I was drawn by the presence of fig, I think. It was rather heavy and I do prefer to have cheese as a starter, but still, good cheese.
I've been meaning to try Cafe Taste: http://www.cafetaste.ca/
re: foxymoron
Me too! I'd like to try Cafe Taste and also Carens Wine & Cheese Bar
Did you know Volo offers a good selection of Ontario & Quebec cheeses? I've been there a few times for the cheese (and beer).

re: foxymoron
I like Cafe Taste, but go sometime when you're going to be in the neighborhood anyway. I wouldn't go out of my way to go there, but it's a very enjoyable place to hang out, have a glass and a cheese plate if, like me, you have friends that live nearby, etc. I really wish it were around the corner from my house - then I'd be there all the time. :)
But the cheese is solid, Jeremy is knowledgeable about their wines, and the staff makes it incredibly easy to fritter away a lot of time there if that's what you're in the mood for.
Amuse Bouce on Tecumseh St. does a nice cheese tray...nice selection of artisanal cheeses (mild and creamy to sharp and hard). They also have a good selection of ports to compliment the cheeses
Lucien has a good cheese plate.
I didn't love the resto overall, but for pre- or post-dinner wine and cheese it might be a nice stop.
The Comrade on Queen E has a decent cheese plate. It's also a pleasant spot to have a few drinks with a group, or alone.
I love cheese plates! I had a pretty nice cheese plate at Nota Bene last week - paired with a lovely madeira, instead of port, on the sommelier's rec. There were a couple of Fifth Town and Monforte cheeses along with a couple of ones I hadn't tried before from a BC artisan cheesemaker. The "sides" were some sliced baguette (crisped, I think) as well as hazelnuts and a port jelly - not particularly inspired but the overall plate was good. IIRC, both George and Splendido offer cheese plates as well.
I can vouch for Caren's having been there several times in the last few weeks. They have a list of plates with various themes, as well as a list of a la carte cheeses, and matching beverage selections. Very professional service. Even when you order from the a la carte selection, they will still make an effort at composing a plate with various accompaniments (ie maple syrup for Tete de Moine).
Might want to check the cheese supplier for any resto in Toronto
I've always wanted to try the Cheese Menu at Reds Bistro:
Looks interesting!
I did enjoy my Cheese Platter at Nota Bene a few weeks back. I also had a good Cheese Plate at Tati Bistro last December (the Chef even gave us more cheese without charging). I know some fellow Chowhounders have had bad experiences there however I actually had a nice dining experience. Mind you, I have yet to return to see what it's like now.

BALTIMORE (AP) - Ray Rice ran for 153 yards and scored two touchdowns, and the Baltimore Ravens beat New Orleans 30-24 Sunday to end the Saints' six-game winning streak.
The Ravens (10-4) won by reviving their lagging running game and managing to hold onto a fourth-quarter lead.
Coming into the game, Rice hadn't had a run of more than 30 yards and reached the 100-yard mark only once. He had a 50-yard run in the fourth quarter and finished with his biggest rushing total since a 154-yard game last year against Cleveland.
Rice scored on a 10-yard run and caught a 17-yard pass from Joe Flacco.
Drew Brees went 29 for 46 for 267 yards for the Saints (10-4). The defending Super Bowl champions had not lost since Oct. 24 and scored at least 30 points in five straight games.
Baltimore clinched the win when Cory Redding picked off a Brees pass in the closing minutes.

Show for June 23, 2013. Soul Man Pt II: The Return of Jazz Singer-Songwriter Gregory Porter.
Gregory Porter says his goal is to make art that's not forced or contrived, that flows like water from who he is and how he's lived. This conversation makes it plain just how entwined the singer and his songs are. Our previous interview with Gregory was surely one of our best shows of 2012, and this second one picks up where the first left off. We talked about his precocious taste for jazz, performing gospel in church, the influence of his minister mother and her message of love even in the face of hate, and his seemingly meteoric – but actually long-in-the-making – rise on the jazz scene. We listened to some of Gregory's recorded music and some that hasn't been recorded (at least not until now), including his first original song, composed at the age of six.

Willie Nelson Band's Former Tour Bus goes for $80,000.00 on Craig's ListTuesday, May 6th, 2014
by:Chad Swiatecki
A 1983 tour bus belonging to a band member of Hill Country resident and country music legend Willie Nelson sold for $80,000 over the weekend after it was put up for sale on Craigslist by its Dallas-area owner.
The bus was owned by Nelson's longtime drummer Paul English and had an original sale price of $29,000 that quickly attracted interest and media coverage all over the Internet, driving its price higher. Rolling Stone reports current owner Tom O'Leary bought the bus in 2010 "on a whim"and used it to travel to NASCAR races and hunting trips.
"I mainly just thought it looked cool," he said. "It needed quite a bit of work when I got it and I did it all myself: fuel systems, electrical, floors, plumbing."
The bus named Scout was one of four Nelson and his crew used on tour and reportedly clocked seven miles per gallon of eco-friendly fuel.
Paul English Former Tour Bus for sale on Craig's ListSunday, May 4th, 2014
Yes, that bus for sale in Tyler drove on a Willie Nelson tour. But it was Paul English's ride
Willie Nelson's publicist can't confirm, only because "I promised to give him a break," but Florida Coachcan: The bus for sale on Craigslist is indeed a Willie Nelson tour bus … technically. But despite what you may have read elsewhere, it wasn't Willie's.
Says so right there on the plaque pictured below and in the seller's slideshow: "This coach was designed for Paul English of the Willie Nelson Band." Which is almost good enough: The Fort Worth-born English has been Nelson's drummer, tour manager and best friend since the mid-1950s. But Florida Coach's Johnny Temples, who drove those buses during the '80s, wants to be clear: The Scout, as it was called, was one of four buses on that tour, along with Willie's iconic Honeysuckle Rose, the crew members' Warrior and the band's Red-Headed Stranger.
Eventually, the bus you see here was rechristened Me & Paul, so named for the 1985 record of the same name.
"Willie rode that bus when he played dominoes," says Temples, "but that was not his personal bus." The bus actually remained in Florida Coach's fleet till 1989, when the company sold it down the long road that's finally led to Tyler.
A friend sent the want ad yesterday, a few days after the bus hit the Internet's open road, and surely it'll be gone sooner than later. The seller, a feller named Alan, told The Village Voice he's selling it for someone else — a gent without much tech savvy who doesn't really need the money, but, based on the amount of almost-offers so far, figures it was probably priced too low.
That may be true. Buses that have been part of Nelson's tour convoys show up for sale from time to time, and this 1986 Eagle I sold at auction for $47,580 in 2011. And: "As you'd imagine, THC residue and weed stems were all over the place."
But of course. Clearly, priced too low.
Backstage at the BackyardThursday, May 1st, 2014
I asked Paul English if I could do a selfie with him, and he said, "I have no idea what that is, but okay." Then I said I would love to have a Me and Paul picture; that everyone wants one. He is such a gracious man.
Budrock "The Illuminator" Prewitt
I took these selfies in the morning before the Willie Nelson and family show at the BackYard Amphitheater last Tuesday. Now I think I know why everyone avoided me all afternoon — fear of selfies on Facebook.
Thanks to these kind folks for being good sports; no one said no, even though they were all busy and on their way to do something somewhere.

Willie Nelson had so much love and affection for everyone at the concert at the BackYard Tuesday, and this is how it looked from the front row, when Janis from Texas took this picture of him looking at her.
Thanks to Janis for her great photos from the show.
I love when I see Janis haul in her big ass camera, as heavy as it may be, because I know we will get to enjoy photos like these of Paul, and Bobbie.

Paul English: You Can't Keep a Good Man DownTuesday, December 3rd, 2013
"Paul English has a new 2013 Hardly Davidson"
Willie Nelson's drummer Paul English was injured in an accident involving his tour bus late last month, and suffered a broken ankle. Paul was one of several band and crew members injured in the accident, which took place on the band's way back to Texas, on icy, poor roads. No one was seriously hurt, thank goodness, and all were released from the hospital and sent home.
The injury hasn't slowed him down, though, and Paul is scheduled to perform with Willie Nelson and Family when their tour (temporarily cancelled because of the accident), resumes in Las Vegas on December 10th. And it looks like he's figured out how to get around at home.

Open Road Song (Victory Or Death)-LOST Charlie and Hurley (by Lostaway815)
Hurley and Charlies awesome ride.
My favorite moment in LOST.
OMG. Someone else too??? I never knew a damn bus could literally just kill me emotionally. That scene was the best scene in the ENTIRE SERIES. EVER. Why? Charlie, completely devastated hes going to die. Hurley, no hope left. Hurley puts all his faith in this van to get started, to make their OWN luck. That Hurleys loss of Libby will get better. That maybe Charlie WONT die. Hurley gave Charlie hope as well - "I came to ride shotgun—Victory or Death!" This scene I swear to God I cant even begin to even explain it. Jin yelling "HURLEY!" makes me cry everytime. Seeing Hurley and Charlie hugging and yelling, picking up Jin and Sawyer, while you see REAL HAPPINESS on Sawyers face, Vincent. The camera work in this scene BROUGHT US IN THIS VAN, it was like a car ride with our best friends.
No shame I seriously wish yall would watch this music video I made bout it. The song is PERFECT the lyrics and the voice overs KINDA knick the surface bout how I feel and I feel it captures the feeling I get when I see the scene.

Picturing Matthew Shepard
Matthew Shepard
In January,
HBO announced that its adaptation of Kaufman's play would air on March
16. A few weeks later, NBC said it had slated The Matthew Shepard Story–the
official family biography–for the same night. NBC execs claimed they don't
pay attention to HBO's scheduling. Scott Seomin, entertainment media director
of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, observed, "If they're
competing against each other, no one wins." In response, HBO's show
was moved up to Saturday, March 9.
version is a far superior telling. Judy Shepard, Matthew's mother, allowed
Goldie Hawn, Peter Sussman and Ed Gernon to produce the "official"
dramatization of her family's story. The show opens with a graphic depiction
of Shepard (Shane Meier) being beaten to death, and goes on to treat his life
and death, McKinney's trial and the loss experienced by his parents (Stockard
Channing and Sam Waterston). The portrayals of Shepard's closeted childhood,
his coming out to his parents after being gang-raped while on a high-school
trip to Morocco and other previously obscure details of his life feel true and
honest. That's refreshing after the saintly caricature he morphed into
in the media.
The Laramie Project looks amateurish in comparison, and teaches nothing
new or noteworthy. Christina Ricci and Laura Linney, respectively, play Shepard's
lesbian friend and the town bigot, Sherry Johnson. Watching these marquee names
only distracts from the story the film's trying to tell. Michael Musto,
who felt the original play was "a bit self-congratulatory," agrees
with me that the use of such stars to tell this tragic story is "bizarre,"
though he adds it was "inevitable." On the plus side, there's
some good news footage of the near-riot in midtown a few days after Shepard's
Musto reflects
on the way a murder that sparked a nationwide debate on homophobia and the validity
of hate-crimes legislation devolved into a ratings battle. "My guess is
that most of the Shepard [projects] will reveal more about the makers and producers
than about Matthew himself," he predicts.

One-Pan Pasta
I came across this recipe on Lottie + Doof. It's one-pan pasta. One-pan in this case does not mean putting the sauce on top of the pasta, after the pasta is done. No, you actually cook the raw pasta with all the ingredients you want on top of it in the same pan.
Now… can such a thing really work??
I love cooking, but not a fan of the whole slow cooking thing. I actually like cooking best when its fast (and delicious). I will try next week, when I get back from London.

NBC will name new LA news center for Tom Brokaw
NEW YORK (AP) — NBC is honoring its long-time news anchor Tom Brokaw by naming the network's newly-built West Coast news center for him in a ceremony Tuesday.
Brokaw is taking a break from cancer treatment to celebrate with family and friends. The 74-year-old newsman is undergoing regular chemotherapy after being diagnosed last summer with multiple myeloma. The cancer affects blood cells in the bone marrow.
Brokaw has kept working, saying he finds it therapeutic. The author of "The Greatest Generation" is doing projects related to the upcoming 70th anniversary of D-Day.
Brokaw says the cancer has taken over his life in many ways. But he's still able to work and do other things he likes, just not at the same pace as he's used to.

Helpful gloves in certain situations
I like these gloves for certain times. Salt water really dries out my skin in the winter and I've tried just using latex gloves but once they get under the water it just rushes in and I might as well not have them on. My hands were so try I got painful splits in my skin.
A pair of these was on sale for just a few dollars so I got them. They are long, going up nearly to my elbows and that's plenty long enough to keep my skin dry.
I do like the fact that they also keep me safe from nipping fish or stinging bristle worms, though the truth is I've never had a problem with such things. Because of that these only come out every now and then when I'm really getting into the tank, I don't wear them for daily stuff.
That being said, I am still glad I got them and glad that I have them around just in case. I actually recommend everyone get a pair for those times they need to mess with areas of the tank that might harbor bristle worms or if you are going to be messing with rough or sharp pieces of your rock.
They are really well built and I have a feeling they will last for a decade or more without replacement. I've had my pair for 4 years now and they still look pretty much brand new.
I don't believe they are for delicate work that requires a gentle touch the rubber is far too thick for that. I would not use them for fragging, for example, that seems just silly.
Liked about it
1. Long enough to protect your whole arm.
2. Very durable and well made.
Didn't like
1. Thick rubber reduces feeling.

Kinda useless.
I have these do I use them? Sometimes but only when my wife asks me to. They are bulky and hard to feel anything through them.
I do use them sometimes but most of the time they are just an inconvenience. I did not buy them. They came free in a order I places with a online retailer. The most use I got from them was when I was treating some live rock with muratiac acid.
Other than that they are just not that useful to me.
to get these glove and pout them on every time you touch a coral would be expensive and is just not practical. If your going to be moving lots of rocks around and or have a large open wound on your have they would be useful at that point but stupid me I would probably still be reaching into my tank with a dozen stitches in my hand :)
Liked about it
I got them for free so that was a plus.
They are long. It's hard to fund gloves that long.
They are Tunze. I do like Tunze products.
Didn't like
They are just not all that useful. If I drop something and need to fish it out of the tank I will just reach in and grab it!

The Kan Variation of the Sicilian Defence arises after the moves 1 e4 c5 2 Nf3 e6 3 d4 cd4 4 Nd4 a6.
After the third move e6, if white does not move d4 and moves e5, the what can black do because his kingside knight is blocked?
So thats its name.
I know black is preventing the invasion of white's knight, but I see a position advantage for white.
Looks more like the Scicilian Dutch variation.
@sonty: After white plays 3. e5 you can easy equalize with 3. ... d5 The game often transposes to a line in the french defence which is considered harmless for black: 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. e5
it doesnt seem to be doing anything at that time because it doesnt stop what white is trying to do
I think a6 is a very good move.

Chronicle star Michael B. Jordan has been discussing a potential reunion with director Josh Trank on the latter's forthcoming Fantastic Four reboot, and from the way he's talking, it sounds as though there could be a part with his name on it.
"Nothing is real. Everyone knows we're good friends," said Jordan to USA Today of his relationship with the director. "If it happened I would be ecstatic. I'd love to be a part of it." USA Today went on to say that Jordan gave a knowing wink before joking, "That wink was off the record." Sounds like he's got the cocky patter down to a T...
The part Jordan has been linked with is that of Johnny Storm, otherwise known as The Human Torch, with some fans registering their objections over casting an African-American actor in the role.
However, Jordan suggests said fans ought to calm down and move with the times...
"Things change and time goes on," said the star. "It's 2013 right now. The characteristics of The Human Torch are his name is Johnny Storm, he's charismatic, and he's a playboy. That's it."
With filming set to begin later this year, The Fantastic Four will open in the UK on 6 March 2015.

Would Jordan be a good choice for the role? Tell us, below!
