It was the biggest selling musical instrument at Xmas – we find out why the Ukulele has come back into fashion and we ask if sugar is the new tobacco. Brenda Donohoe meets Ireland's Tallest man all on Mooney with Shay Byrne.
We've been hearing anecdotally for a while that the ukulele is making a comeback but we wanted to be sure. So today we have the 4-piece 'Ukeristic Congress' here in studio to talk about and play ukuleles.
We also sent The Mooney Show's Katriona McFadden to music shop McCullough Piggott in Dublin City Centre to see if the ukulele really is growing in popularity, Katriona met sales assistant Jamie Clark.
Well we have Keith White, Andrew Robinson, Shay Bagnall and James Quah here in studio AKA The 'Ukeristic Congress'.
Shaun Abbitt is the tallest man in Ireland measuring in at 7 foot 3 inches and takes a shoe size of 22. Shaun is now confined to a bed with a condition called Gigantism. This morning Brenda visited him and his wife Jackie.
If you would like more information you can log onto the Tall Persons Club here.
Shaun here pictured with his wife Jackie pictured below.
Richelle Flanagan, dietician and president of the INDI joins Shay live in studio about the new campaign 'Action on Sugar'. A worldwide campaign that feels sugar is the new tobacco, sweet stuff is far more likely to be linked with obesity, diabetes and a host of other ailments.
Hedgerows and the Law
Hedgerows in Ireland form important features in maintaining wildlife diversity and in establishing wildlife "corridors", particularly for birds. The commonest nesting birds found in hedgerows such as wrens, dunnocks, robin and willow warblers depend entirely on insects during the Summer months. In general untrimmed, thorned hedgerows containing species such as blackthorn, whitethorn and holly are favoured by birds as they provide ample food and also serve as a protection against predators.
Section 40 of the Wildlife Act, 1976, as amended by Section 46 of the 2000 Act, provides protection for hedgerows by providing that it shall be an offence for a person to cut, grub, burn or otherwise destroy hedgerows on uncultivated land during the nesting season from 1 March to 31 August, subject to certain exceptions. It is important that, where possible, necessary work to hedgerows is carried out outside this period.
It is possible in most cases to schedule and carry out necessary work to hedgerows outside this period. The legislation makes provision for works (other than road or other construction works) to be carried out for reasons of public health and safety under the authority of any Minister or a body established by statute that lead to the destruction of vegetation. There is also a provision to enable the Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local Government to request from the relevant Minister or body details of any such works together with a statement of the public health and safety factors involved.
It shall not be an offence to destroy vegetation in the ordinary course of agriculture or forestry. Also it shall not be illegal to destroy vegetation while preparing or clearing a site for lawful building or construction works.
It is the policy of the Minister to prosecute for offences under section 40 of the Wildlife Acts 1976 and 2000 and successful prosecutions have been taken under this section in recent years. Members of the public are encouraged to contact their local wildlife ranger and report instances where hedgerows are being destroyed during the prohibited period.

Lombardi Research
Nina Hyde Center
Nina Hyde reigned as fashion editor of The Washington Post for 18 years, from 1972 until her death in 1990 at the age of 57. An acclaimed reporter, she was said to cover a fashion even as others cover a war. Her good writing and deep thinking earned respect and accolades from colleagues at the paper, members of the fashion industry and readers.
As a journalist and an individual, Nina Hyde possessed a penetrating eye. She wrote about fashion as social history, revealing who we are and how we live. When breast cancer befell her, she saw her illness in a broad social context. Breast cancer, she said, was a national calamity besetting one in nine American women, and she challenged all Americans to fight back.
While struggling with unflagging good humor to save her own life, Nina Hyde reached out to educate and inform others. She fervently believed in the benefits of early detection and in research as the vehicle that would eventually provide a cure for breast cancer.
Nina Hyde did not live to see a cure, but she did rejoice in the establishment of the Nina Hyde Center for Breast Cancer Research, here at the Lombardi Cancer Center, founded by her long-time friends Ralph Lauren and Katharine Graham of The Washington Post.
The Nina Hyde Center promotes advanced breast cancer research at the Lombardi Cancer Center, a component of Georgetown University Medical Center.
Philanthropic donations to the Nina Hyde Center support one of the world's largest and most respected breast cancer research programs. Nearly 50 Lombardi scientists and physicians study breast cancer exclusively, seeking a cure. These researchers believe basic science and patient care go hand-in-hand, and they speedily translate breakthroughs engineered in the laboratory into new and better treatments for patients with breast cancer.
Recognizing Lombardi's leadership, the federal government, corporations, foundations and individuals each year provide Lombardi investigators with some $8 million for breast cancer research. About half of this money comes from federal grants. In 1996 federal officials took the unusual step of awarding Lombardi both of the government's two most prestigious multi-year, multi-million dollar, peer-reviewed breast cancer research grants.
Still, the need for funds outstrips the available resources. Peer-reviewed grants do not underwrite high-risk research initiatives that are just beginning. Funds donated to the Nina Hyde Center empower Lombardi scientists to pursue promising ideas still in their infancy. These gifts support the work that is most speculative and most likely to find a cure. Funds donated to the Nina Hyde Center also enable Lombardi's administration to encourage and retain the most gifted young researchers.
Learning more about breast cancer and speedily translating what they have learned into improved treatments are the goals Lombardi researchers pursue as they seek a cure. The Lombardi program focuses on what is known today and what will be learned about breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prevention in the early decades of the 21st century.

'Fireside Chat' underscores Lincoln's decree
MORE: Read more news from Fredericksburg
RELATED: See more UMW news
President Abraham Lincoln issued his preliminary Emancipation Proclamation on Sept. 22, 1862, warning Confederate states that if they didn't return to the Union by Jan. 1, their slaves would go free.
On Friday, almost 150 years to the day, a group of nationally renowned Civil War historians gathered at the University of Mary Washington to discuss the document's enduring legacy.
Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates William Howell welcomed the audience and speakers, remarking, "I can't imagine a better location than Fredericksburg for this conversation."
James I. Robertson Jr., a Civil War expert and retired history professor at Virginia Tech, opened the "fireside chat" before a crowd of about 300 in Dodd Auditorium. The stage was modeled after a sitting room in the White House, complete with armchairs and a projected fire.
"The Emancipation Proclamation has been described as the single most significant proclamation in history," said Robertson.
He was joined by three key speakers: Edna Greene Medford, history department chair at Howard University; Frank Williams, retired chief justice of the Rhode Island Supreme Court; and Harold Holzer, vice president for government relations and public affairs at New York Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Each speaker approached the proclamation—issued in its final form on Jan. 1, 1863—from a different perspective.
Holzer shared a series of Civil War-era drawings, paintings and photographs that depicted the various responses to the Emancipation Proclamation.
One drawing showed President Lincoln writing the Emancipation Proclamation in his study with the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence and an American flag in the background, illustrating Lincoln's patriotism in authoring the document.
Another drawing from the Confederate perspective depicted Lincoln writing the document with his foot on the Bible, and a devil-shaped inkwell, a vulture's head and a glass of whiskey on the table in the background, demonizing Lincoln in this act.
"Why [pictorial images are] important is they're not just pictures . They reflect passionate points of view, pro and con, North and South," said Holzer.
Williams, the retired judge, began with a story of how he became infatuated with Lincoln when he was in the sixth grade.
"I spent my lunch money buying Lincoln books—all of 25 cents a day," he said. "One of the reasons I became a lawyer [was] because Lincoln was a lawyer."
He later explained how Lincoln used his powers as commander in chief during wartime to write and enforce the controversial document, something he would not have been able to do during peacetime.
Williams said the proclamation was a combination of social, moral, military and political factors.
"It was a transformative moment in American history, probably as transformative as the Declaration of Independence," he said.
Medford approached the issue more from the African–Americans' perspectives. She emphasized two clauses in the proclamation: first, the entreaty to the slaves not to resort to violence unless it was in self-defense, and second, the inclusion of African–Americans in the Union Army.
Not all slaves followed the course of nonviolence, said Medford, citing uprisings in which slaves seized firearms and attacked their former masters.
But many did opt to join the military. Former slaves played a very important role in the Union victory, according to Medford. They were involved in at least 400 battles, and 39 of these were very important in the outcome of the war, she said.
Because they had fought in the war, the African–American men believed they were entitled to full citizenship, voting rights, landownership, education and fair treatment.
"They believed that, in issuing the proclamation, that's what Lincoln was offering them," said Medford. "The first generation came to revere Lincoln because they thought they would receive, not only freedom, but equal treatment. When they realized they weren't getting that, they became very disillusioned."
It was a disillusionment toward Lincoln and the Emancipation Proclamation that, according to Medford, still persists today among many African–Americans.
Medford noted that there was also a small African–American press whose papers wrote scathingly critical editorials on Lincoln before the Emancipation Proclamation was issued.
"The proclamation was extremely important at the time that it was issued, on Jan. 1, 1863. It remains important because what it does is it helped to recommit the nation to freedom and equality, and, although it did not end slavery throughout the country, it was a major step toward that end, and so it leads to the 13th Amendment," Medford said.
Holzer tried to use a modern example to explain the document's importance. In terms of its impact, he said the Emancipation Proclamation is in many ways comparable to President Barack Obama's DREAM initiative, which defers deportation for some illegal immigrants who came to this country as children, opening the door to potential citizenship.
Likewise, the telegraph cables of the Civil War era are comparable to Facebook and Twitter messages nowadays, he said. And the Republican and Democrat papers of that era aren't much different from today's MSNBC and CNN, he added.
As for the claim that many African–Americans supported the Confederacy during the Civil War, "It's just not true," he said.
He referenced a situation where a Virginia elementary school textbook taught that African-Americans served in the military for the Confederacy. When questioned where she got the information, the author said she had found it on the Internet.
According to Holzer, "Secession occurs because of slavery, the war occurs because of secession, and the end result is the war to restore the Union and destroy slavery."
Robertson concluded the discussion saying, "this evening we have all been witness to one of the most remarkable and concise discussions ever conducted on the Emancipation Proclamation."
One attendee of the discussion, Ida Jeffries, drove from Stevensville, Md., to hear the scholars speak.
"It's a tremendous opportunity to learn about the Civil War," Jeffries said.
One attendee, Latika Le, came from Midlothian "to learn more about the background of the proclamation, the document that so many black Americans, African–Americans, consider the document that freed our ancestors."
Howell emphasized the importance of Virginia's involvement in the sesquicentennial celebrations and how events, such as this discussion, bring educational and tourism opportunities throughout the state.
Heralded as a historical triumph on behalf of equality and freedom, the Emancipation Proclamation was a risky document for its time—one that took moxie to write.
"There are very few people in world history who possessed the courage of Abraham Lincoln," Williams said. "He learned to trust his own judgment. He knew his own mind, despite criticism . He was obsessed with character, selflessness and honor."

Book flights to Norway
Tickets to Norway through airberlin will take you to the home of a vibrant Scandinavian culture and landscapes that appear out of this world. Norway features modern, cosmopolitan cities, as well as an interior of spectacular scenery consisting of glaciers, fjords, and river valleys.
Best Things to Do in Norway
- Take a series of trains, buses, and boats to travel through the fjords between Oslo and Bergen in one of the areas of natural wonders found throughout the country
- Hit the slopes at one of Norway's ten ski resorts, offering thousands of hectares of cross-country and downhill skiing or snowboarding opportunities
- Marvel at the world's two most well-preserved Viking ships at the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo, where collections of tombs and artifacts found in the fjords are also exhibited
Hidden Gems in Norway
Jagged cliff sides and Arctic tundra await you in the relatively untraveled north when you book flights to Norway. A sea kayak tour along the coast is the perfect way to truly appreciate the natural side of the country.
Norway Sightseeing
Enjoy flight deals to Norway and experience a midnight sun during the summer; the further north you travel the longer the days become. An elaborate system of trails and cabins wind into the untouched wilderness of this remarkable country.
Plan Your Norway Holiday
Coastal cities in this area enjoy rather temperate conditions throughout the year as warm currents come from the Atlantic. Northern and inland regions experience a colder, sometimes Arctic, climate. Most travelers come to this northern European country during the summer when the sun sets late at night. Cheap hotels in Norway are most commonly found in the winter.

wtb reply plawchs =p
As of now i just bought all i can with conq badges and imo i think I'm ready for uld/toc normal.
Both of my specs are tanking and have become quite useful to me for the raids and heroics i have run so far. My blood spec is set up as single target threat/survivability (duh) and frost is as frost does lol. I basically use frost for any trash i have to run through with my over achiever dps guildies and i switch to blood on most bosses (although i will keep frost on for bosses such as xt for the cd mitigation).
As of now my question to you all would be, how are my specs and what would you recommend setting my focus on gear wise?
The World of Warcraft Armory
Last edited by giggityfrost; 09-15-2009 at 09:08 AM. Reason: armory
wtb reply plawchs =p
This is approximately what I'm shooting for as well.
How long did it take you to achieve this? I think I have at least 2 weeks to go (playing every night for 4 hours at least).
Since I'm basically going the same route you are to get back into raiding, I'm curious what people think.

Well you still havent bought everything with conq. You still need the neck because shield block does nothing for us. Also i would drop down into valor badges and pick up the cloak. Just some suggestions on gear.
Well if your going for your blood spec being single target. I would spec something like this Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft this gives you alot of single target threat but also a fair amount of self heals (which is why i personally love blood).
I would use this spec with glyph of howling blast for your aoe/trash spec. Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft You can bb after you hb and a mob will be glued to you.
There's a few more pieces of badge gear you can get:
Back: Platinum Mesh Cloak
Legs: Valorous Scourgeborne Leggards (the Conquest legs have Shield block on them)
Boots: Kyzoc's Ground Stompers (or crafted Spiked Deathdealers)

The Simpsons Movie

|Our Rating:
Theres a ridiculous idea out there that The Simpsons Movie has to equal the greatest moments of its TV parent, when it only needs to be as necessary to society as Munster Go Home. And boy, is it. The plot in which Homers idiocy brings about environmental catastrophe is as hilariously bombastic as the ones boob-tube producers used to spin off onto the big screen before they discovered the concept of the Very Special Episode; selling it is some of the funniest slapstick youve seen animated outside a Looney Tune. Not satisfied yet? Try moments of genuine poignancy, a climactic epiphany that transcends the concept of the message movie and an up-to-the-second satirical edge that eviscerates the sacred cows of lefties and righties alike. Whats that? Youre still not swayed? Oh, fine: Best. Evil Dead joke. Ever.

FILE - In this Jan. 29, 2014 file photo, Attorney General Eric Holder testifies on Capitol Hill in Washington. In an assertion of same-sex marriage rights, Holder is applying a landmark Supreme Court ruling to the Justice Department, announcing Saturday that same-sex spouses cannot be compelled to testify against each other, should be eligible to file for bankruptcy jointly and are entitled to the same rights and privileges as federal prison inmates in opposite-sex marriages.

The U.S. Justice Department will treat married same-sex couples like it treats married heterosexual couples, Attorney General Eric Holder announced Saturday.
"In every courthouse, in every proceeding and in every place where a member of the Department of Justice stands on behalf of the United States, they will strive to ensure that same-sex marriages receive the same privileges, protections and rights as opposite-sex marriages under federal law," Holder said in prepared remarks to the Human Rights Campaign in New York. The advocacy group works on behalf of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equal rights.
Just as in the civil rights struggles of the 1960s, the stakes in the current generation over same-sex marriage rights "could not be higher," said Holder.
Holder, applying a landmark Supreme Court ruling to the Justice Department, said that same-sex spouses cannot be compelled to testify against each other, should be eligible to file for bankruptcy jointly and are entitled to the same rights and privileges as federal prison inmates in opposite-sex marriages.
The Justice Department runs a number of benefits programs, and Holder says same-sex couples will qualify for them. They include the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund and benefits to surviving spouses of public safety officers who suffer catastrophic or fatal injuries in the line of duty.
"These are the sort of rights that heterosexuals take for granted that we have been demanding for quite a long time now," said Andy Thayer, co-founder of the Gay Liberation Network in Chicago.
On Monday, the Justice Department will issue a policy memo to its employees instructing them to give lawful same-sex marriages full and equal recognition, to the greatest extent possible under the law.
"It's just a further step on the way to equality," said Ed Yohnka, spokesman for the American Civil LIberties Union of Illinois.
Though Thayer agrees it's a good move, he questions why the Obama administration is announcing this now.
"It's a step in the right direction, it's long overdue but it's being done for political advantage," he said.
He also questioned whether a policy memo would hold up when the next president is in office.
"What can be granted by executive order by one president can be taken away by the next," Thayer said.
Holder's address is the latest application of a Supreme Court ruling that struck down a provision in the Defense of Marriage Act defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman. The decision applies to legally married same-sex couples seeking federal benefits.
After the Supreme Court decision last June, the Treasury Department and the IRS said that all legally married gay couples may file joint federal tax returns, even if they reside in states that do not recognize same-sex marriages. The Defense Department said it would grant military spousal benefits to same-sex couples. The Health and Human Services Department said the Defense of Marriage Act is no longer a bar to states recognizing same-sex marriages under state Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Programs. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management said it is now able to extend benefits to legally married same-sex spouses of federal employees and annuitants.
Holder told his audience:
—The Justice Department will recognize that same-sex spouses of individuals involved in civil and criminal cases should have the same legal rights as all other married couples, including the right to decline to give testimony that might violate the marital privilege. Under this policy, even in states where same-sex marriages are not recognized, the federal government will not use state views as a basis to object to someone in a same-sex marriage from invoking this right.
—The U.S. Trustee Program will take the position that same-sex married couples should be eligible to file for bankruptcy jointly and that domestic support obligations should include debts such as alimony owed to a former same-sex spouse.
— Federal prisoners in same-sex marriages will be entitled to visitation by a spouse, inmate furloughs during a crisis involving a spouse, escorted trips to attend a spouse's funeral, correspondence with a spouse and compassionate release or reduction in sentence based on an inmate's spouse being incapacitated.

Transportation committee focuses on student safety
The Morgan County School District has formed a transportation committee to focus on student safety. The committee meets every three months. During their most recent meeting, the group discussed the installation of cross walk signs. Morgan City and Morgan County are expected to pay for the signs, which may be installed in March.
"Traffic is significantly heavier with the change of bus routes," School Board President Bruce Galbraith said. "The signage will protect the youth."
The committee's next meeting is in March.
"If you have concerns with transportation, don't hesitate to tell us," Galbraith said.
Galbraith said a bridge over the Weber River would help alleviate some traffic congestion near the schools in Morgan City.
"For buses and cars, it would be another way out," Galbraith said. "It would be very helpful in creating safety."
School board to review all district policies
In an effort to align all local policies with state law, the Morgan County School District will be reviewing all policies. Each month, policy review will be on the board of education's agenda, allowing about three months for input and review.
Superintendent Doug Jacobs said he would like to see policies published on the district web site so parents can review them as well.
"We are trying to get up to snuff on all our policies," School Board Chairman Bruce Galbraith said. "We want the community involved as we go over all of our policies."

COMMERCE CITY, Colo. (AP) - Edson Buddle scored in the 86th minute to lift the Colorado Rapids to a 1-0 victory over Toronto FC on Saturday night.
After finding the ball just outside the crease when Toronto defender Logan Emory gave it up, Buddle easily scored into the back of the net for his first goal of the season.
Colorado (3-4-3) has scored four goals in its past five games, though the Rapids have been outscored 9-8 overall this season.
Rapids goalkeeper Clint Irwin outplayed Toronto's Joseph Bendik to improve to 3-2-2 with three shutouts since taking over for the injured Matt Pickens.
Toronto (1-4-4) has lost consecutive games after tying four straight, and dropped to 0-3-1 on road.

A drug being investigated right now could prove to be a big breakthrough for men with late stage prostate cancer, especially in cases where the disease has spread to the bone.
Gino Polidori spent a lot of time restoring this classic army jeep. It's a reminder of a life spent serving in the military and as a lawmaker. This family man's most important contribution may be what he's doing right now, testing a new drug for his disease, advanced prostate cancer.
Gino Polidori, Prostate Cancer Patient, explains why he feels he needs to test the drug, "I feel it's genetic, and it's going to follow in the family tree. Here's an opportunity for them to find something to help somebody else down the road."
The experimental drug, Cabozantinib works by targeting two proteins linked to the growth and spread of prostate cancer.
In a trial of 171 men with metastatic prostate cancer, 74-percent had their tumors shrink. 67-percent of patients with pain reported less pain. In 82 patients, bone metastases were partially or completely resolved. Doctor Maha Hussain co-authored the drug study. She says its anti-cancer effects are very promising.
Maha Hussain, MD, FACP, Professor of Medicine and Urology, Associate Director of Clinical Research, Co-leader, Prostate Cancer Program, University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center, explains the findings of the drug study, "It does appear to slow the cancer from growing, but it does not cure the cancer, obviously. The early signs that we have seen have been encouraging and dramatic."
For Gino, it's an opportunity to slow his cancer and relieve his pain. He hopes someday no one will have to experience what he's living through.
Right now researchers are continuing to evaluate the drug not only for prostate cancer, but for patients with other cancers including ovarian and breast cancers that have spread to the bone.
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer is cancer that occurs in a man's prostate. It is one of the most frequent forms of cancer affecting men. About one in every six men will be diagnosed with this disease sometime during the course of his life. (SOURCE: www.mayoclinic.com)
TREATMENT: There is no "one size fits all" treatment for prostate cancer. For prostate cancer in its early stages treatment may include:
* Surgery (radical prostatectomy)
* Radiation therapy, including brachytherapy and proton therapy
If the prostate cancer has spread, treatment may include:
* Hormone therapy (medicines to reduce testosterone levels)
* Chemotherapy (SOURCE: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth, www.pcf.org)
PREVENTION: Here are a few ways men can lower their risks of prostate cancer:
* Eat fewer calories or exercise more so that you maintain a healthy weight.
* Try to keep the amount of fat you get from red meat and dairy products to a minimum.
* Watch your calcium intake. Do not take supplemental doses far above the recommended daily allowance. Some calcium is OK, but avoid taking more than 1,500 mg of calcium a day.
* Eat more fish - evidence from several studies suggest that fish can help protect against prostate cancer because they have "good fat" particularly omega-3 fatty acids. Avoid Trans fatty acids (found in margarine).
* Try to incorporate cooked tomatoes that are cooked with olive oil, which has also been shown to be beneficial, and cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli and cauliflower) into many of your weekly meals. Soy and green tea are also potential dietary components that may be helpful. (Source: www.pcf.org)
LATEST BREAKTHROUGHS: A new drug called cabozantinib is showing early promise treating patients with prostate cancer, particularly against tumors that have spread to the bone.
"The most striking finding is the fact that we saw broad evidence of anticancer effects including shrinkage of tumors in about 70% of patients, dramatic improvements in bone scans, pain improvement in patients who had pain to start with and overall delay in the progression of the cancer," Dr. Maha Hussain, an Associate Director for Clinical Research at University of Michigan, said.
In addition, among patients who were on narcotics due to bone pain, 67% reported less pain and 56% either stopped taking narcotics or reduced the dosage. Also, more than two-thirds of patients had some tumor regressions in areas of spread outside the bone. The treatment effects lasted on average 29 weeks.
The study found moderate side effects from cabozantinib, including fatigue, gastrointestinal symptoms and high blood pressure. (SOURCE: www.cancer.med.umich.edu)

Rotherham can look forward to a second Yorkshire derby in the space of six days when they travel to play Leeds Carnegie on Friday evening.
Having eased to a 23-10 win over Doncaster on Saturday thanks to two stunning solo tries from flanker Robin Copeland, Andre Bester's men will head up the M1 confident they can complete a league double over Leeds.
The Titans beat the relegated Premiership side 22-18 at Clifton Lane on the second weekend in September to continue their good record in meetings between the two local rivals. Rotherham have won six out of the last ten league fixtures.
Nottingham boast an even better head- to- head record in fixtures against Moseley with the Green & Whites coming out on top in each of the last eight league games. Moseley's last win came on 2nd September 2007.
Cornish Pirates, who scored five tries and 33 points away to Bristol yet still came out second best in Sunday's top- of- the- table clash, are on a run of six straight wins against Doncaster.
It is nearly two years since the Knights tasted success in the Championship against the men from the Duchy.
Plymouth are in dire need of a pick- me- up after slipping one place in the league table to 10th. But London Welsh, their opponents at Brickfields on Saturday, have enjoyed the upper hand in recent years with three wins and a draw in the last four meetings.
Elsewhere, London Scottish entertain league leaders Bristol and Bedford are at home to Esher.

My daughter, Lily, LOVES to color.
I thought it was pretty funny that she started calling her coloring papers "masterpieces."
I thought, "How in the world does she know that word?!"
Well, come to find out, there is an episode of Clifford, where the neighbor, Mr. Bleakman, wants to paint his "masterpieces" but he has to watch Clifford for the day. Any how, my daughter now thinks that anything she draws, paints, or colors is her "Masterpieces", and she wants to display each one proudly on the fridge. Unfortunately, we just don't have room for them all. With that in mind, I knew I wanted to make her something to put them on, but didn't know just what.
I was finally inspired while I was at Goodwill a few weeks back, I saw something that would work perfectly for her papers, and decided to turn it into something to help display her beautiful "masterpieces."
-Another piece of wood for "My Masterpieces"
-Scrapbook Paper-Paint & Sponge Brush
-Metal Clips
-Mod Podge
-Ribbon/Ric Rac
-Enamel Spray Paint
-Vinyl (if you want to use it)
1. Take off any excess pieces from your board. In this case, the metal clips were already on. Sand if needed. Boards like this are all over the place at Goodwill. This one was only a buck on Half Off Saturday – woo hoo!
2. Paint the sides and the front edges the color you want it to be. Spray paint the metal clips the color you want them to be (let dry for an hour or so).
3. After the wood dries, measure the face of the board and cut out coordinating scrapbook paper.
4. Mod podge the scrapbook paper onto both boards.
5. Make marks on your boards where you want the eyelets to hand from on the boards. Add the eyelets to the bottom of the "Masterpiece" board and to the top of the hanger board.
6. Tie ribbon (and/or ric rac) from the masterpiece eyelets to the hanger board eyelets. You could also just do hooks and eyelets if you don't want ribbon.
7. Hot glue the metal clips to the board. And add any embellishments you would like. In this case, I made some paper flowers and added pearl buttons to the centers to match Lily's room.
8. For the "Masterpiece" board, I cut VINYL that says
"My Masterpieces." Other ways of doing this include printing that out onto your scrapbook paper and then mod podging on, or even stenciling "My Masterpieces" to the board. Add hanging teeth to the back if needed.
**Note: a Cute Frame would also work… Just paint, and print out "My Masterpieces" on scrapbook paper and cut to fit inside the frame**
It was really fun and easy to make and cost about $3 TOTAL to make.
Could it get any better?
I think not.

Associated Press
GRAY, Ky. (AP) -- Gino Cima raced to a house as it was engulfed by flames in rural Kentucky, frantically trying to save his nephew, his nephew's pregnant fiancee and five young children inside. But he was too late: He found his nephew's body near a side door, laying in a way that suggested the man had been trying to rescue the sleeping children.
Before coming upon his nephew's body and that of the man's fiancee, he said he screamed to firefighters: "There's babies in that house!"
Cima said Sunday that he arrived within minutes of hearing of the Saturday morning blaze.
"When I opened the screen door, she was laying at the door with her head to the door. And I pulled her out," he said, speaking softly. "And about 2 feet from her laying the other way was (my nephew). And I went in and got him and pulled him out. But they was done gone. There wasn't nothing I could do."
He said he then raced to the front of the house to try to save the children.
"And that's when they had the five babies laying out in the front yard," he said.
The Knox County coroner and state police have not yet identified the victims, but family members said the five children killed ranged in age from 10 months to 3 years.
Relatives said the nephew's fianc

Homewood and Flossmoor, where generations of the same family often live within blocks of one another, create a sense of heritage and community that reflects in the high school being a center of public pride. A tradition of excellence is the cornerstone of Homewood-Flossmoor: the result of commitment on the part of district residents to the idea of a community high school with high standards for students and staff, and a solid goal of excellence in education.
The Homewood-Flossmoor High School Foundation was founded in 1982 and subsequently incorporated as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in 1984. Since that time, the Foundation has worked to enhance the school experience by funding programs to help students maintain the competitive edge inside and outside the classroom.

The Wire: Season 04 (2006)
David Simon's masterful social commentary went back to school, quite literally, in the fourth season, which focuses on Baltimore's crumbling ... Show synopsis David Simon's masterful social commentary went back to school, quite literally, in the fourth season, which focuses on Baltimore's crumbling education system. A relevant link to its first three seasons is supplied by Roland "Prez" Pryzbylewski (Jim True-Frost), who left the police department to become a teacher at Edward Tilghman Middle School, a hardscrabble institution on life support that services a low-income, drug-infested neighborhood. (Incidentally, Prez's career path is similar to one of the series' producers, Ed Burns). His eighth-grade math class includes a close-knit quartet of friends -- Randy Wagstaff (Maestro Harrell), Michael Lee (Tristan Wilds), Duquan "Dukie" Weems (Jermaine Crawford) and Namond Brice (Julito McCullum). The wisecracking Brice is ignominiously selected to be part of a university experiment studying at-risk kids, which counts a former police commander, Bunny Colvin (Robert Wisdom), as a consultant. Out on the corners, Marlo Stanfield (Jamie Hector) strengthens his grip on the city's West Side narcotics trade once dominated by the Barksdale gang, and with his cold-blooded lieutenants, Chris (Gbenga Akinnagbe) and Snoop (Felicia Pearson), devises an ingenious method to hide the collateral damage of his ascent from the law. This sleight-of-hand bedevils detectives Freamon (Clarke Peters), Greggs (Sonja Sohn) and Bunk (Wendell Pierce). The trio are flummoxed by the lack of victims that would surely coincide with Marlo's ever-widening domain, a savage power grab that also threatens the relative peace of the New Day Co-Op under East Side pooh-bah Proposition Joe (Robert F. Chew). Meanwhile, the Democratic primary in the city's mayoral campaign pits the entrenched African-American incumbent, Clarence Royce (Glynn Turman), against Councilman Tommy Carcetti (Aidan Gillen), a scrappy politico with a savvy campaign manager in Norman Wilson (Reg E. Cathey), but a long shot to become Charm City's first white chief executive in years. Joe Friedrich, Rovi

Posted Monday, February 11, 2013 --- 6:37 p.m.
MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Milwaukee Archbishop Jerome E. Listecki says he is both saddened and joyful about Pope Benedict's decision to resign.
Listecki says he is joyful that the 85-year-old pontiff will have the chance to "enjoy some personal time in his golden years."
But Listecki says he's also sad because he will miss Benedict's "holy, evangelical work."
Benedict announced he is stepping down at the end of February because of his health.
In a statement Monday, Listecki said Benedict is "a true servant of Jesus Christ, a phenomenal leader, and his inspiration reaches across multiple generations."

My major unhappiness : No title/subjects , not support display in "tree"(childe and thread function in JAC)if you import from 3rd component , not migration friendly, support slow …..
1 No titles & NO tree display for import item
JA comments was not the most popular comment component, so when webmaster turn to JA comments, the comment title submitted by in other component will lose. What is more , I found without titles, the comments in the same threads , or called child comments in JA , could not display right in JA. The reader may not be given the relations of those comments. Some time, the debate / argument build by these relations was the most attractive part.
2 Not Migration friendly
JA comments was the only few comment component in the market. When I upgraded my joomla site , it did showed those comments in Jcomment in its import function , however, when I press the import button, it failed and told me 0 item was imported . I could not found any document on this issue.
3 support ?
T_T, I buy a develop member ship for $499. I did not get a pro services. Import trouble from Jcomment? Ok, you should turn to Jcomments. ………. At least , I thought they should provide a little info on this issue so that the client could figure it out themselves.
I paid the membership for I thought my visitor`s comments worth that price. However, JA failed me.
We are sorry, you seem to have had a difficult time. However, as i see JA Comment for J 1.6 is very active project with 38 fixes in the svn in these 13 days alone. We are still fixing the reported bugs.
Last update for J 1.6 version was 3 months back and has not been updated for the J 1.6.2 and J 1.6.3 versions. If you would check the J 1.6.2 changelog, you can see its a major release and has broken the then working version of the JA Comment 1.6 . You dont need to pay 499 $ for the extension alone please, its just 40-50$ only all backed by 7 days refund no question asked.
We have just released major updates for Joomla 1.6 for all the templates and some extensions, you may check the same on the update page of our site, It has taken up lot of time and we apologize for the same. You are welcome to ask for refund or further help, customer satisfaction is very important for us, thats the reason we are the only one who offer money back for electronic goods, no questions asked.

New Mexico Considering Video Game Tax
According to New Mexico's State Parks Division, 80 percent of the state's youth live within a half hour of a state park, but only about 10 percent have ever actually set foot in one. We think that video games and central air might have a particular attraction to the youth in a state where temperatures can reach well over a hundred degrees.
