Montreal band looks to strike chord with Pittsburgh
Sam Roberts is a diehard follower of the Montreal Canadiens, but extends his congratulations to Penguins fans on the team's Stanley Cup victory. The Montreal native just hopes there's some energy left over in Pittsburgh for a very good rock 'n' roll band performing Friday at the 12th annual WYEP Summer Music Festival.
"We'll take all comers in the spirit of the Stanley Cup," Roberts says. "I hope the win still carries forward, and people will be in the mood to celebrate."
OK, it won't be quite like watching Max Talbot befuddle Detroit goalie Chris Osgood, or Marc-Andre Fleury's breathtaking save as time ran out in Game 7. However, the Sam Roberts Band brings no small amount of verve and energy on its new album, "Love at the End of the World." From the '50s guitar flair of the title track to the haunting "Lions of the Kalahari," Roberts and his bandmates seem intent on exploring different aspects of rock music.
There do seem to be hints of Roberts' influences on the record. "Oh Maria" sounds like Marshall Crenshaw by way of Bruce Springsteen, and "Lions of the Kalahari" has the tone of a Brian Eno-Peter Gabriel collaboration.
But similarities to other artists are only incidental.
"All of this pushing and pulling of the music in different directions has to come from a place that you're not necessarily consciously focused on why you're doing it, where it's coming from," Roberts says, "why your musical instincts are taking you in that direction at that given time. I think all of our records have been like that, in some way."
The difference with "Love at the End of the World" stems from where it was recorded. For previous albums, Roberts and his bandmates -- guitarist Dave Nugent, keyboard player Eric Fares, bassist James Hall and drummer Josh Trager -- traveled to distant locales to avoid the inherent distractions of recording at home in Montreal. Notably, the band recorded "Chemical City" at an old church in Byron Bay, Australia.
The birth of Roberts' first child forced the group to stay home to record the current release.
"It ended up becoming a catalyst, creatively, because of that need to re-evaluate the familiar," he says. "You look at it from a different perspective. That's a challenge in and of itself, but I think it was one of the main ingredients in the overall outcome of the record."
While the band previously left home to make albums, Roberts insists Montreal's a remarkable place to be a musician, even though the city's music scene often is overshadowed by those of its Canadian peers in Toronto and Vancouver.
"In Montreal, if you tell people you're a musician, they don't think, 'Oh, another musician,'" Roberts says. "You're just kind of allowed to do it. It doesn't mean you're going to be successful with it at all. But as a choice, it's respected, and that goes a long way to keeping the fires burning when you face those tough times, when things aren't working out."
Being from Montreal hasn't limited Roberts. This year, his band won JUNO Awards (the Canadian equivalent of a Grammy) for artist and rock album of the year. All that's left is to make inroads stateside. Despite some false starts in the United States, things feel different with "Love at the End of the World."
"Maybe this record has finally struck a chord with people," Roberts says, noting the album's increased airplay. "Maybe it's finally starting to open those doors, one by one. I think it's up to us now, in the live shows, to come down there and cement that relationship, to maintain a presence and basically not take no for an answer."Additional Information:

Which Game Show Would You Like to be On? [POLL]
As you come home after a long day at work and turn on your TV, it seems like game shows are almost always on. But given the choice, which one would you like to win big on?
As you come home after a long day at work and turn on your TV, it seems like game shows are almost always on. But given the choice, which one would you like to win big on?
If we ever get on 'Jeopardy!' but don't know the final answer, we hope we have the guts (and charm) to go out like Ari here.
Because of her high profile relationships and whirl wind romances a lot of jokes have been created at Taylor Swift's expense and now the game show Jeopardy! has gotten in on the action by posting a clue during the game poking fun at her where she is the answer to the question.
Finally, 'Jeopardy!' gets entertaining!
Who would've thought that one of the best 'Final Jeopardy!' moments to ever grace the stage would come from not a scholar or professor, but a teenager? Leonard Cooper -- the recent 'Jeopardy!' Teen Tournament winner -- gave host Alex Trebek, his fellow contestants and the audience a hearty laugh with his Final Jeopardy! answer, one that was surely unexpected.
We're melting...we're melting.....Day 14 of the heat...ugh! Now, something besides the heat!! I am a big Christina Perri fan! I love her story and I love her excitement over her career taking off...
We all saw what IBM's Watson did on Jeopardy; crushing the competition with ease.
But why should his great triumphs end with Jeopardy?
How would the supercomputer perform in a bigger competition like -- video after the jump.
Starting today Jeopardy! will put man against machine. Today, tomorrow and Wednesday, two of the game show's most successful contestants, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter, will test their knowledge against the IBM computing system "Watson," named after IBM founder Thomas J. Watson.

Reports of new AMG additions to the iconic G-Class range stretch back to early last year, but new reports out of Europe this week suggest that their coming is now confirmed.
The updated "Geländewagen" range is expected to debut in Beijing next month, and, according to German paper Autobild, the Mercedes stand will star new G 63 and G 65 variants built by the carmaker's AMG arm.
The G 63 is expected to replace the current G 55, with the 'new' model powered by AMG's familiar 5.5 litre bi-turbo V8 engine, delivering 400kW and 800Nm of torque.
In the G 65 AMG, expect the big G wagen to utilise AMG's trusty 6.0 litre V12, delivering a massive 463kW and 1000Nm of torque.
As for the wider G-Class range, last week's online unveiling of the updated GLK midsized SUV brought an unexpected (though doubtless planned) look at the revised 2012 range.
Watch for the new G-Class and its AMG heroes to debut next month.

Mitt Romney: The Campaign Within the Conservative Movement to Take Him Down
June 15, 2011
Mitt Romney's coming off quite a good week and a half. Last month's depressing job numbers bolstered his desired narrative about being the man most suited to save the economy, his opponents have largely (and inexplicably) shied away from taking potshots at his Massachusetts health care bill, and he looked far and away the most presidential of all the candidates in Monday's GOP debate. Yet after talking to conservative activists over the past week, I'm by no means convinced that he is in the clear.
Tea Minus Zero
May 19, 2010
Liberals have responded to the Tea Party movement by reaching a comforting conclusion: that there is no way these guys can possibly be for real. The movement has variously been described as a "front group for the Republican party" and a "media creation"; Paul Krugman has called Tea Party rallies "AstroTurf (fake grass roots) events, manufactured by the usual suspects." I can understand why liberals would want to dismiss the Tea Party movement as an inauthentic phenomenon; it would certainly be welcome news if it were.

Je veux voir/I Want to See
2008. Lebanon/France. Written and directed by Joana Hadjithomas, Khalil Joreige. With Catherine Deneuve, Rabih Mroué. The sight of the devastation wrought by the 2006 Israeli incursion into Southern Lebanon has a strong emotional impact on both the spectator and the film's actual witness, Deneuve. She is guided by Lebanese thespian Mroué, who grew up in this war-torn region, on a road trip from Beirut, which the famous—and famously detached—actress is visiting for a gala. The initial uneasiness of being trapped in a car with a near-stranger gives way to polite curiosity and, once the landscape bears its scars, intimacy. This unique composite of scripted scenes, documentary footage, and improvised travelogue makes a nation's heartbreaking tragedy all too apparent. In French, Arabic; English subtitles. 75 min.

|The Game Story:
|Patchogue, NY- Junior Ryan Campbell (Brampton, Ontario) lit up the board as he netted four goals and dished off a team high five assists to lead the Golden Lions to a 20-8 victory over Dominican College on March 24. The Golden Lions push to a 3-1 record on the season as the Chargers drop to 1-5.
The Golden Lions opened with a six goal streak kicked off by John McClure (Brampton, Ontario) off of Campbell�s first feed of the day in the first minute. Campbell picked up the next two tallies while CJ Leary (Bay Shore, NY) and Kevin Rimmer (Ronkonkoma, NY) each added for a 5-0 edge. Joe Biondolillo (Holtsville, NY) netted his first collegiate goal to cap the streak. Dominican was able to sneak in two past goalkeeper Nick Tracey (Farmingville, NY) within the last minutes of the quarter as Remo Montalbano (Saugerties, NY) and Owen Smith III (Cornwall, NY) capitalized.
The second quarter scoring was kept minimal as Dowling�s Keith Lorenzo (Ronkonkoma, NY) capitalized on a Campbell dish with 7:59 on the clock. Smith would pick up an unassisted tally for the Chargers, but Dominican would not find the net again before the half. With less then two minutes left to play, Leary kicked off another DC scoring streak that would carry over to the third quarter and balloon the lead to 15-3.
Dowling kept command for the remainder of the game as they went on to seal the 20-8 victory.
Leary finished with four goals on the day and McClure and Nick Cotter (Whitby, Ontario) each pitched in with three goals and an assist. Gregory Graziano (East Setauket, NY) went 18-28 on faceoffs for Dowling. Alex Jones (St. Albert, AB) led the Chargers with four points as he netted three goals and added an assist.
The Golden Lion defense was on their toes today with Kyle Karam (Selden, NY) leading the defense with four caused turnovers while Biondolillo scooped up 10 ground balls and caused three turnovers.
Joe Assante (Weston, NY) made an astounding 22 saves in net for Dominican while Tracey earned the win for Dowling, giving up only three goals and making seven stops. Michael Breiner (West Babylon, NY) closed out the game in goal for the Golden Lions making six stops and allowing only one goal.

Latest marketshare numbers show webOS is hanging on 47
The Palm brand may be gone, but like Robin Williams' spirit communicating to his wife through automatic writing in What Dreams May Come, the latest Comscore market share statistics show Palm saying clearly, "I still exist."
Palm is still in last place for smartphone platform market share, but the decline is slight this time and even though the recent Verizon Pre 2 launch was the first carrier launch of a webOS phone that doesn't look just like the first gen devices, still 3.2% of the 30,000 mobile subscribers surveyed were still holding on to their Palm phones through the three month period that ended in January. With the awesome new products coming down the pike with webOS on board, we have to assume that number will be on the rise again this summer.
It is interesting to note that these market share results do not include tablets. So if you include the iPad, it is possible that iOS is more prevalent than these numbers reflect, and indeed the Touchpad's triumphant launch this summer will not help Palm's numbers on this chart. Palm's ranking here also includes any lingering Palm OS holdouts as well, though presumably these are mostly webOS users.
If you are interested in the economics of the mobile industry, Comscore will give a free webinar on March 15th at 1 pm EDT called the 2010 Mobile Year in Review. You can register for it at https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/867594321.

It will be interesting to see how those numbers change when Sprint's use it or lose it upgrade happens 4/1/11. I suspect the numbers will drop again since there is no viable WebOs phones to replace the Pre on Sprint so far, and I don't see one coming in the next 3 weeks.
Or April 6 when the normal upgrade cycle starts for launch day participants. Or June 6 on the contract end date for launch day.
Win7 should be a factor by April's reading.
Last time I checked the upgrades applied on the first of the relevant month. So it doesn't matter that launch people got the phone on the 6th, they're eligible on the 1st of April/June.
It's only interesting how it will be in 1 year, in 2 years and again in 5 years.
Microsoft took 3 years to make WP7 and still will need another 1 to 2 years to have even most of the features covered that WebOS covers now, not to mention Palm OS or WinMo 6.5
I understand that you people need something "new" something where you can "explore" and see how it works... It's very geeky and the way a lot of us are. But lets be honest. WP7 can't hold a candle against WebOS. Neither can the hardware drive me to that platform.
If you need something new, just do that update to WebOS 2.1. I did it and my Pre Plus feels like a new phone now and I am still exploring the possibilities of the system. This will carry me until the Pre 3 is available.
I'd love to 2.1 my Sprint Pre. Or hack it onto a Pre2. However, I use my Sprint Nav to much. It doesn't yet work in 2.1, until the Java service is written into C or node.js.
Get's me wondering how much of that 3.2 is Centro's or ancient Treos. I see more Centros in the wild than I do Pre's these days.
Well if Sprint steps up and announces the Pre3 at the CTIA event these numbers may soon change for the better!
If they do so, those numbers won't get better as most people won't buy any new WebOS-Phone until the new one are out... I guess the same effect that we had after the Pre was announced.
But hasn't that been the problem with Sprint all along? That they haven't stepped up? And that they have consistently refused to even say if they ever will stand up?
considering that wp7 is going to be available for the first time on cdma handsets before any new webos phones come out I think it is safe to assume microsoft stands to gain at palms expense
I've been here since day one, but now that my 4th Pre (that I've had for less than a month) is dying, unless I get a solid date on Sprint for launch with in a reasonable window [which at this point seems so unlikely] for the Pre3, WP7 will be gaining at least one person at palms expense
They stand to gain this 200 bucks unless HP steps up!
I understand the reasons if somebody is leaving the platform... But seriously? WP7? It's like abandoning your ship because it took too long to repair it and make it fast again and... going on board of a giant oil-tanker with no engines... WHY?
Yes you will feel some newness and probably (at least for now) some better hardware. But so far as I have seen WP7 had no updates in months and even if it gets one, it won't get the next until the end of the year. And even after THAT update it will have less features than most other OSes have NOW (including WebOS).
I would say out of the frying pan into the fire. Just that HP is about to save us from that pan (ok, in the coming months... but they are ;) ).
wp7 is just short of 10000 apps when webos i don't think has crossed 7 in more then a year and a half. WP7 has many form factors of phone Palms don't. seems to me it's a ship working fine and with more engines. you're characterization of webos ans being broken and taking way too long is appropriate. Either way people will want to get off of a broken boat.
WebOS is hanging on? When I saw this yesterday on Engadget I thought, "This is the same thing I saw with Circuit City and Blockbuster". Where are they now? Losing Marketshare is NOT hanging on. It is falling back/off.
We have no new device hitting (announced date) and it is going to be a problem. I expect more mind/marketshare loss until a hard date is given. I am trying to hang on until the new devices but the well document, in the coming months has me considering doing something different. Unfortunate as I love WebOS but how much is that worth nowadays?
Nice spin though.
Best Buy is right on their heals as well.
Yeah, I agree. In previous reports they lost percentage points but actually gained in total number of users. That is not the case this time.
This time they have lost 269,000 users. Plain and simple, this is not holding on, this a death spiral.
BTW, here is the math: article says 65.8M users now, an 8% increase since last time. So that means previous was 60.9M. 3.2% of 65.8M is 2,105,600. 3.9% of 60.9M is 2,375,100.
Therefore the net loss is 2,375,100 - 2,105,600 = 269,500 users lost.
Circuit City is retail and Blockbuster was a service. Mobile phones (in general) are a different animal than both of those, sorry no comparison. Think about where Android was a couple years ago, definitely not at the top as they are now. It's a marathon not a sprint (sorry to say that but it is).
android has a different business model. it's licensed and gains market share because it has 10 companies making different phones in different form factors. Palm is none of that. In fact the closest other phone platform to that, licensed and having diffent form factors, is WP7 not webos. And i don't even think WP7 will do that well.
Palm isn't really hanging on to much here. HP is assuming as much, which is why they are trying to start afresh whilst also doing the minimum the can to keep any die-hard WebOS users happy. They havn't got much choice either. But then iOS and Android also started from scratch, so starting afresh with new logo and branding is not such a bad thing since there isn't much they can loose now.
webOS has been bleeding out since the Pre came out for AT&T. After that happened, no one new really came to the platform and people started to leave because of the bad hardware (quality and performance).
The Pre2 might help stem the tide a little but the only way for webOS to GAIN market share is to release new devices competitive with the top end stuff now. The Veer looks like it'll help stem the loss more than the Pre2 but it looks to me to be more niche. The Pre3 isn't slated until summer which means losing more and more until then.
And when they do release the Pre3 they have the new iPhone model to compete with. And I'm sure people won't care about that, right?
I won't care about the iPhone 5... But I expect HP to release more than those 2 phones in this year.
There will be at least one slab-phone until the end of the year and maybe one Pixi-like phone. Oh and not to forget that 7"-tablet that is going to come. You will probably hear more leaks about the tablet than from the phones, as the Palm Global Business Unit (where the phones are probably made) has a better secrecy than HP (where the tablets are probably made).
yeah left of fight over the remaining 5% of the market the ipad doesn't have. that's not really winning the race.
You don't care about the iPhone5. A lot of people won't. But the iPhone5 has probably 1000x more people that care about it than people that care about new webOS phones.
Like it or not (I personally don't), the Apple iPhone has the greatest mind share in the space. Android might have more users, but the iPhone still easily wins mind share. The iPad also does too.
There is absolutely no way HP is going to jump in there and dominate. Apple is just way too strong. HP is going to have to whittle away Apple's mind share. And the longer HP waits, the harder it will be since the other companies are also more appealing and will become so as long as there isn't a new webOS device.
"Hanging on" is a pretty aggressive interpretation.
If you consider the situation in which WebOS was stuck these are still quite good numbers. If by June we are still over 2.5% it's good.
If by march next year we have 5% again I guess HP is OK with it and they will continue to speed up the WebOS-Bandwagon. We nevertheless never will get at such numbers like Android or Apple is now. But with a stable number of some 10% you can survive comfortably in this market, as this still would mean tens of millions of potential customers at ONE unified and less-fragmented platform.
I FIGURED I'd put this here so people would read it. I've been a loyal. Palm pre guy since standing on line to get it almost 2 yrs ago I was waiting for the pre 3 to come outand to see if it came to sprint . I woke up 1 morning and said why ?. I went to the store and check out an evo...and bought it.this phone is so bad **** why would anybody wait for a pre 3 that's behind the times ? I thought I would never give up my web o s
but the droid operating system is kicks **** I've talked to speech this entire paragraph. This phone is way ahead of the curve and any phone on the market so for all of you waiting for the PRE3 I ask why ? so I will bid you all bye for now why you wait for a phone that is behind the curve .SO go to sprint and try an evo. you'll love it and wonder the same thing . why am I waiting ....til late summer...what a joke.
I've talked to speech this entire paragraph.
So that's why it was so hard to read...
If this is the right thing for you it is the right thing for you... Not for me.
I want just that Pre 3 as my next phone, tanks.
Why would you need a 2 Ghz on a Pre 3? The Pre 2 with 1 Ghz is running. The Veer with a newer 800 Mhz is running... So the Pre 3 (after the optimisations) should just FLY. If you want more you can overclock it and live with the battery life that lasts from your bed to your door.
well yall when these new devices hit the market this summer the numbers will start to look different. just like apple has die hard uses that had macs then there laptops then there ipods and now there iphones and ipads. im sure theres die hards at hp user that will do the same. myself for instance i have a envy i want a all in one pc when the touchpad comes out im geting it and when the new pre 3 comes out im on it, thats 4 devices. im sure im not the only one
So, down only 0.7% huh? Sounds great at first, until you do the math. When the share was only 3.9% to begin with, that means almost 1 in 6 Palm users abandoned the mothership during those 3 months!
webOS... the best mobile operating system that everybody likes but nobody uses.
Android is a train wreck of a mobile OS... somebody remind me again why everyone flocks to it?
marketing and support from different manufatures
Yep, it's as simple as this: AVAILABILITY
And that is the reason why I think that at this time next year things will look much brighter. It might be only 5% or something, but it will be stabilised and growing.
You should not forget that this is not Palm any more. HP doesn't rely on becoming super-important and successful. The people there aren't planing for 6 months, 1 or 2 years, but for the next 4 to 10 years and that's why they bought WebOS.
In 10 years you will hardly find any people with Laptops or even normal PCs. Most people (at home) will use mobile devices instead. And THAT is the reason why HP has bought Palm.
All the other bigger producers will have to go either to Android or to WP7/Windows8-20-mobile-Edition and fight for their margins, while companies like HP and Apple will differentiate themselves by their integration and software (and have lower marketshare, maybe around 10% while being able to ask for higher prices and even make more money if they would have to make lower prices because of the higher integration... just look how Apple does it).
Great. Hp will have integration but no apps. This is a race that they're losing badly and the apps will not just magically appear when the Pre3 does.
I loved webos. Moved on to wp7 and now I'm switching back and forth from that and android. I've never realized what a difference apps make until I moved to a platform that had them. I can change my default browser, run flash and completely automate my phone. That's why I chose android. I refuse to come back to webos until hp decides to give the market what it wants...a slab styled phone.
I would love to see the results of this after the feb. 9th event..hp probably lost a lot more users after that.
"Android is a train wreck of a mobile OS... somebody remind me again why everyone flocks to it?"
Because you can actually get Android phones on all the major carriers.... today.
"Because you can actually get Android phones on all the major carriers.... today."
That's a result of everyone flocking to Android, but doesn't answer what folks like about Android to begin with?
Android is a powerful enough OS for sure. But nobody ever uses the words "elegant" or "intuitive" when describing their interaction with an Android device. I think "clunky" and "customizable to a fault" are more accurate.
webOS users are a lot like Sand People. They're so insecure easily startled about others telling them they're using the wrong phone, but they will be back in greater numbers.
Because its not webOS.
Because there's a long list of things you can do on an Android smartphone that you can't do on a webOS smartphone. Edit Office documents, read ebooks (Nook, Kindle, Google Books), use mainstream apps to remote manage a PC (GoToMyPC, LogMeIn), use Shazam, use barcode scanning apps like ShopSavvy, use augmented reality apps, enjoy fully-featured solutions like Evernote, etc., etc., etc.
That's why I'm using Android, in spite of the fact that I like webOS far better.
I'm glad WebOS is hanging on. I also apreciate the obscure film reference. Maybe there are about as many WebOS users as people who saw What Dreams May Come.
Market share won't improve until HPalm gets ahead. So far, what we have gotten is "look! others can do A B & C, we can too now." but then a week later, others can do D E &F. WebOS was way ahead 2 years ago, but the hardware was behind. Now, the other operating systems are catching up fast, but HPalm are still bringing hardware that is still at the same level or behind once again. Hardware and OS need to both kill the competition by being far ahead. Then marketshare will be gained.
I believe I take up 20% of that share. HP please notice my Palm Profile!

Bomb threat used to rob deli
SPRINGFIELD, Ore. -- A man used a phoned-in bomb threat to rob a Springfield deli early Sunday morning and the police are asking for the public's help in identifying the robber.
The man threatened to detonate a homemade explosive left inside of Patty's Deli on Olympic St. if the clerk didn't leave money outside in the parking lot. The employee did as the man asked before calling police.
The Springfield Police Department arrived at the deli just before 12:40 a.m. Sunday morning. They evacuated the clerk and two patrons inside while the Eugene Explosive Disposal Unit responded to the scene. Officers located a device that resembled a pipe bomb just inside the front doors.
The explosives team determined that the device did not contain explosives. The process took about an hour and several blocks around Olympic St. were closed off at that time.
Authorities recognized that the incident is not your typical robbery.
"I've been a police officer for almost 22 years here and this is the just first time I've heard it be used as a robbery," said Sgt. Tom Rappe with the Springfield Police Department.
Authorities said there are similarities to this robbery and two others that have happened recently in the area.
"Eugene had two similar calls like this last week, so we believe he is probably a Eugene/Springfield resident," Sgt. Rappe said.
Springfield Police have issued a detailed description of the man. He is described as a white male, 40-50 years old, medium build wearing a baseball hat, a black western style shirt with a large horizontal stripe in the middle with a picture of horses, and blue jeans.
SPD is asking anyone with information about the suspect or robbery to call the Department at 541-726-3714.

Wendy Long, a Manhattan attorney, will bring her U.S. Senate campaign to Plattsburgh on Thursday.
She is running in the June 26 Republican primary against George Maragos and Rep. Bob Turner, R-New York City.
The event starts at 6 p.m. at the West Side Ballroom. It's hosted by the Upstate New York Tea Party, which had some kind words for Ms. Long, a Republican and c(C)onservative hero.
"Ms. Long is the true conservative in this race," said UNYTEA chairman Mark Barie in a statement. "(H)er extensive background in constitutional law is extremely appealing to our group."

Bath pub The Boater on course to reopen
Posted: April 19, 2014|
A six figure transformation of a city centre pub is almost complete.
The Boater, on Argyle Street, will reopen on April 25. The pub closed at the end of last year so it could be completely refurbished by brewery Fuller, Smith and Turner.
The company took over three pubs in the city The Boater, The Crystal Palace and The Huntsman and has ploughed £7.5 million into them.
The Boater will now offer customers a choice of four bar areas, serving 30 beers, a private dining area and a beer garden complete with barbecue area. A new cellar bar will host live music, comedy and cabaret.
Internationally renowned Bristol-based graffiti artist Felix Braun, author of Children of the Can, who has worked alongside the likes of Banksy, has been commissioned to create artwork for the cellar bar. He has also designed pieces for use on The Boater's coasters and menus.
Newly appointed general manager Tom Tucker said: "Something of an adventure, there's lots to explore and I look forward to ensuring that everyone gets a chance to do just that, enjoy our new and exciting menu and meet the team."
The Boater has taken on 15 new members of staff and is still hoping to recruit another five.

Livid Bachelorettes Attack "Hooker" Rose Recipient Blakeley
The haterade is flowing freely at the Bachelor mansion!
Normally it takes weeks for the women to start in-fighting on The Bachelor, but as Monday's episode of Ben Flajnik's season shows, the claws came out almost instantly when it came to bachelorette Blakeley.
PHOTOS: Meet Bachelor Ben's sexy singles
Tagging along with 11 other bachelorettes during a group date in Flajnik's hometown of Sonoma, Calif., the 34-year-old VIP cocktail waitress angered the women when she quickly tried to jockey for precious one-on-one time with Flajnik.
"There's a rose on the line and my strategy is to just be me," Blakeley said on Monday's show. "There isn't really competition between me and anyone else. I know what I want and if the opportunity presents itself, I'll go after it. I want him to want me over everyone else."
PHOTOS: Hollywood's biggest flirts
Praised by Flajnik, 29, for "owning" the date and "making the most of her conversations with me," Blakeley became an instant target after securing the date rose.
"She's one of those people who's ridiculously full of s--t," sniped Samantha. "I feel really sad for people like Blakeley. She's such a cougar. She's just so, so desperate. I'm just [mad] that a candy striping hooker is taken seriously enough to be given a rose."
PHOTOS: Sexy Bachelorette bikini bods
Samantha may have taken Blakeley's behavior personally, but it was outspoken Jaclyn who deemed the waitress a "horse face" and spoke for the rest of the house. "There's a reason she doesn't get along with everyone. It's not like we're sitting around saying 'let's all beat up on Blakeley today.' It's because she's a bitch!" she seethed during the night's cocktail party.
When it came to Monday's rose ceremony, Blakeley may have been safe, but two other bachelorettes -- Shawn and blogger Jenna -- weren't as lucky.
VIDEO: Angry bachelorettes make "horse face" Blakeley cry on Monday's show
"I feel sick," Jenna said, breaking down after her elimination. "I just can't believe it. Are you kidding me? I'm mortified."
Next week, the remaining bachelorettes travel to San Francisco -- and a familiar face from Flajnik's past returns to confront him, angering the women.

Confessions & Life Lessons of a Petite & Busty Yogini. ~ Karen Kazanci
When I first started practicing yoga regularly, my least favorite poses were salambasana (shoulder stand) and plow.
Not because my shoulders and hamstrings were tight, but because whenever I would throw my legs behind me to come into plow, my voluptuous boobs would be thrown in my face and I would have a hard time finding my ujjayi breath.
It's hard to breath deep within the diaphragm when you've got boobs clogging up the nasal passages.
I know all the guys out there are thinking, how is that a bad thing? Every time a teacher would lead us into plow, I would cringe. Maybe that's the reason why I rarely teach plow and shoulder stand in my classes.
In the Western world, we rarely see images of busty and curvy yogis and we rarely talk about large breasts and how they get in the way of certain poses. It's strange that it's not brought up; more women than men practice yoga, but since men were the first to practice yoga, they didn't take into account how a bigger bust might affect certain poses.
Take for instance any forward bend. At some point you'll have cleavage in your face. And chaturanga, you've got the extra pounds in the chest so you're working extra hard to keep your shoulders back and heart moving forward. Heart and shoulder openers—we've got extra muscle to stretch. Up dog is a peep show for male yoga teachers. Flowing on the mat brought up all sorts of deep-rooted feelings about my curvy body that I hadn't really faced. It was now literally in my face!
I'm a little under 5 feet tall; in personality, I'm definitely over 6 feet tall, have a size 25 waist and wear a D cup. My body is definitely a little different than the yoga journal models. And nothing, not even a master cleanse or fast will make my Ds smaller.
I've had the same body type since I hit puberty. In school, I was made fun of for being busty. It was a hot topic amongst all the guys. Going to a small private school didn't make things any easier. So as a result, like most teenage girls, I developed insecurity about my body. Most girls at the time were insecure about their lack of cleavage. I was dealing with the opposite. I wore clothes that were way too big for me in order to cover up my curvy body. And luckily grunge was super in at the time so my signature tomboy flannel look was a hit!
As I got older, I felt unfeminine and clumsy, and grunge made its way out, so I needed to find a new look. In my 20s, I lived in Northern California so I was able to pull off the cute hippie look with oversized clothing/ However, when I moved back to L.A. in my mid to late 20s, I realized that something needed to change. I was in my prime, fit and healthy, yet I felt unattractive.
I started practicing yoga. At first, the boobs were always in the way. Finding clothes that fit was an issue yet again. No matter what I wore, there was always some cleavage that busted out. I don't think that sport bras were made for women who are larger than a C cup. The cute tops from Lululemon and Hard Tail are great and everyone that works there is so helpful, but honestly, every top I bought showed cleavage. My friends thought I was nuts! They would tell me over and over again that I looked fine and not to worry at all. Nevertheless, the mind is a powerful thing and our thoughts can dictate our reality.
As I got deeper into my practice, I realized that I did, in fact, feel feminine and graceful on the mat now. I even started to feel sexy! The cleavage started to bother me less and less and I started to embrace my feminine energy and shed the old grunge energy. Thank goodness! Being curvy was the gift I was given and my job in this life was to work with my body not against it.
I started to surrender instead of fight against my reality. As I surrendered, I felt confident and graceful as a practitioner and teacher. Now, when I step off the mat, I take my new-found freedom and energy with me as I flow through life. No more over-sized hippie look! (Okay, maybe sometimes.)
More importantly, my mind is free from my tireless insecurities. Now I have room to focus on creating wonderful things in my life instead of manifesting my fears. Of course, there are still moments where the cleavage gets the best of me—like when I demonstrate an up dog or adjust a student in a supine twist and then wonder why all of a sudden there are lots of dudes in my class. I actually caught a guy looking down my shirt when I was adjusting him in a supine twist. I never saw the guy again!
In a nutshell, throughout my yoga journey, I've learned many things and one of them is acceptance. When you step on the mat, whether you are tall and thin, curvy and voluptuous, short and stocky, petite or curvy, you've got to work with what you've got and build from there.
Once we accept our bodies and situations exactly the way they are, that's when we'll find bliss and enjoy our practice and life. Accepting my body as it is has made me a more understanding and compassionate teacher and practitioner.
This lesson has proven helpful recently when I started teaching a group of students who've never tried yoga before or exercised in years. Instead of forcing them to get into a pose, I encourage them to make the pose fit their unique bodies. And the feedback has been they've never slept better.
Now, instead of slouching and wearing an over-sized high neck t-shirt to hide my assets, I flow through life with my heart open wearing that super cute tank from Hard Tail. And as for shoulder stand, plow and forward bends, I'm getting better at finding my ujjayi breath.

I really liked this article and could relate.
Thanks Jigme!
Same problem here. Sports bras were not made for petite chesty women. But I am proud carrier of my 34DD none the less. In plow I just laugh when my boobs hit my chin, its a nice reminder to draw my chin away from my sternum.
You should be proud! Thanks for reading!
I can soooooo relate. I'm 50 yrs old and have spent a lifetime trying to come to terms with my "girls". They have been a gift and a hindrance. I have been doing yoga for 9yrs, and trying to explain to an instructor, built like a dancer , why I may need to modify, use to embarrass me. I am a 34 G. There are times when I think they need their own mat even, lol. My body has allowed me to bring humor to my practice, and life. I may not always get to wear those "chickie" tops, but that's ok. I get to remind myself and others of the many gifts a yoga practice can hold, regardless.
Thanks for sharing Dorrie!
I can relate. This makes it better. Best sports bra I ever found. http://enell.com/enell-sport
Thank you for mentioning that website. I have been on the hunt and that's how I ended up on this blog!
OHMYGODILOVEYOU. Well written. Moving Comfort is the only place I can find sport bras for yoga and they don't really 'go' with camisole or strapless yoga gear which I can't wear anyway. 5'3", 120, 30 E… shoulder stand bugs the hell out of me but I work to not hate it and to find the surrender in it (all the while trying to not suffocate).
Thanks Kirstan! We all have to remember to surrender.
I cannot relate, since my boobage is not sufficient enough to migrate. But I hate shoulderstand because somehow a whole lot of fat that is not apparent the rest of the time all gathers in one place. Maybe big boobs would help block that from my line of sight? Just looking on the bright side … 😉
Thanks for looking at the bright side :).
Haha, I totally relate. Nothing like bridge pose to really get your life flashing before your eyes. And this peacock will never take flight 😉 Thanks for the article!!
HAHA! Thanks for the support Angel! Maybe one day your peacock will take flight :).
34G here! I swear by my Freya Active bras. They are great for running, but they also keep things where they belong in shoulderstand.
I find in the front lying poses – locust, baby cobra, I'm always starting about 4 inches off the ground…
I don't like practicing with cleavage showing, but it often becomes inevitable and I figure its more important to be present with my practice than hitching up my top again.
Great thanks Bea! And so true about the front lying poses!
You make an interesting point. In my Yoga Teacher Training, we learned how to modify poses for the menstrual cycle and for pregnancy. It was slightly awkward for me as a man, to discuss these topics in great detail, but I quickly got over it. I took it to be part of the package. We talked about how men have tighter hamstrings than woman and how to watch out for long-hair when we set up for shoulder stand. I don't ever recall talking about breasts.
Well hopefully one day it will be addressed. Thanks for your feedback Ari!
Thank you thank you thank you for this! As someone well endowed some poses are so difficult and sometimes I feel like I might knock the person over next to me with them. And those cute yoga shirts? Yeah, not happening. It's really nice to know I'm not the only one!
You're definitely not the only one Carmen! I have several students and friends who are going through the same thing!
HA! I refer to Rabbit as "motorboat pose". – Alexa Maxwell
HAHA! Love it Alexa!
I like your writing style and enjoyed reading your article. Thank you.
Thanks Petite!
Oh great thanks Busty Mcgee! Will definitely check it out :).
I had one student that would always complain esp in shoulder stand, I asked a female teacher about this and she suggested putting more support under the shoulders, in our system we always support for SS and halasana…prevents neck problems..so blankets or bolsters work fine…you might even try a belt above the breast line….these 2 poses are important to practice esp after headstands…
OMG!! I can so related to this. Couldn't have said it any better!! I keep shifting my sports bra in class to keep covering my cleavage with my outer layer but alas it's pointless….I am so afraid they might spill out
Thought I was the only one.
Oh man, I feel as if I'm your asian twin. I am slightly under 5ft with D/DD cups depending on which bra I go with. Although at times I still find myself adjusting, I just stopped caring. My mom always said that it didn't matter if I tried to hide 'em in baggy clothes, those that are looking can still tell!

The Temple Railroad and Heritage Museum is hosting two temporary exhibits this summer, "Vaquero: Genesis of the Texas Cowboy" and "Hell On Wheels: Union Pacific Railroad Towns in Wyoming". Each exhibit will be on display until Saturday, August 2.
"Vaquero: Genesis of the Texas Cowboy" features photographs that reveal the muscle, sweat and drama that went into roping calves and breaking wild horses in the saddle. In the early 1970s, noted Texas historian Joe Frantz offered Bill Wittliff a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity—to visit a ranch in northern Mexico where vaqueros still worked cattle in traditional ways. Wittliff photographed these vaqueros as they went about daily chores which had changed little since the first Mexican cow herders learned to work cattle from a horse's back. Wittliff captured a way of life that now exists only in memory and in the photographs included in this exhibition. The exhibit was created by the Wittliff Collections at the Alkek Library, Texas State University-San Marcos, and presented in partnership with Humanities Texas, the state affiliate for the National Endowment for the Humanities. This exhibition is made possible in part by a We the People grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
To supplement the Vaquero exhibit, the museum produced "By Hoof and By Rail" showcasing the ways that the railroads changed the ranching industry and participated in the national market for livestock and beef. Cowboy-related artifacts from the museum's permanent collection are also on display.
The second summer exhibit featured at the museum is "Hell on Wheels: Union Pacific Railroad Towns in Wyoming". During the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad, end-of-track towns appeared and disappeared as the tracks moved west. Surveying and grading teams, and later track laying teams, established temporary supply and construction camps along the rail route. Tent cities, consisting of canvas and wood structures sprang up around the work camps to supply services for the workers. Saloons, dance halls, brothels, stores, and gambling houses were common. End-of-track towns were known for wild behavior and crime, earning the towns the name "Hell on Wheels." The exhibit is on loan from the American Heritage Center at the University of Wyoming.

The star of 24 was born in London, where the latest series of the programme is set.
The star of 24 Kiefer Sutherland has told 5 News that he is backing England at the World Cup.
Not many people have given the Three Lions much hope of being a success in Brazil, but maybe they stand a chance with the backing of heroic agent Jack Bauer - who has saved the world many times.
Sutherland told us: "The football that I watch is the World Cup and I'll always go for England."
After a four year absence, Sutherland and the team are returning for a 12-episode series of the iconic 24, this time set in London.
"That character has been such a great gift for me," he said.
"The opportunity to be able to step back into those shoes has been fantastic."

A desert hike is not for the faint-hearted but it is a brilliant way to enjoy a close encounter with Wadi Rum.
Colour-shifting landforms, giant sandstone mountains, towering plateaus, steep canyons, mushroom rocks and perpetually moving sand dunes are just some of the elements of Wadi Rum's splendour.
A desert with incredibly beautiful sandstone formations, famous from movies such as "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Indiana Jones". A visit to Wadi Rum when on holiday in Aqaba is a "must", and spending the night in one of the camps there is definitely an unforgettable experience.

The NIH Director
Appointment of Sally J. Rockey, Ph.D., as Deputy Director for Extramural Research, NIH
August 10, 2010
I am pleased to announce the appointment of Sally J. Rockey, Ph.D., as Deputy Director for Extramural Research, NIH. This appointment is effective August 15, 2010.
As you know, Sally has been serving as Acting DDER since the fall of 2008. She joined the NIH as Deputy Director of the Office of Extramural Research in 2005. An insect physiologist by training, Sally has been a leader in Federal Assistance and research administration for almost 25 years. Before joining the NIH, she led the US Department of Agriculture Extramural Competitive Research Program at the Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service. While in that position she was called on because of her strong executive skills to serve as the Chief Information Officer as well. Throughout her Federal career, Sally has been a leader in research ethics, particularly in the area of conflicts of interest and research misconduct management, and she continues to serve as the NIH Agency Extramural Research Integrity Officer. She chairs or is an active member of numerous Federal committees related to science and research. She also collaborates closely with the academic, scientific, and business communities. She has strong leadership and management qualities, is a true problem-solver, and maintains productive relationships among the NIH extramural programs, our stakeholders, and the grantee community. As just one example—though an enormously important one—of her many contributions to the agency, Sally demonstrated her outstanding leadership during the NIH's implementation of ARRA. I am delighted that she will continue to serve as DDER and lead OER.
Please join me in congratulating Sally on the removal of the "Acting" designation from her title. And I know you will continue to give her your full support.
Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D., Director, National Institutes of Health

'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' looks like it will be this year's best film about British guys not trusting one another.
Benedict Cumberbatch is on the case.
Cumberbatch will serve as the voice and will provide the motions captured for the role of a dragon, which sounds pretty damn fun.

Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said state police issued 816 tickets for texting-while-driving offenses over the week of Thanksgiving, the result of a concentrated enforcement effort during the holiday.
"The more than 800 tickets issued in just five days further demonstrates the need for these stricter laws which focus on drivers who put others at risk by illegally using a hand-held device," Mr. Cuomo said in a news release. "I thank the State Police and local law enforcement agencies for cracking down on distracted driving during the holiday weekend to help protect New Yorkers and keep our highways safe."
The state has issued at least 1,000 tickets a month for texting while driving since a new law with stiffer penalties went into effect in July. It averaged just over 400 before that. The law made texting while driving a primary offense, meaning that the police can pull you over just for that.
People who know my driving habits might think it hypocritical of me to say, "Put down the phone," but I assure you I am reformed. I have not been pulled over in six months now. So, put down the phone.
