What you all following, need to get on track Monday as I get married in May.
What you all following, need to get on track Monday as I get married in May.
Hi Louise, how are you doing? Did you choose a plan to follow? I get married in August and have decided to give the 5:2 diet using SML (vlcd) products on the two fasting days and I'll use My Fitness Pal to help me track the other days, keeping it healthy still.
Im getting married in April 2015 and am following Slimming World.
I want to maintain after my wedding so I thought this would be a good way of changing my eating and cooking habits for good.
I wear my weight well so I dont look obese like my BMI suggests so I try not to take too much notice of that!!
Ah we'll you're on the right track! It's good that you carry it well too- bmi is a useful guide for some people but certainly doesn't work for everyone! My OH carries a lot of muscle and would be classed as obese, clearly not the case.
I think with clothes sizing it varies do much from shop and person, you'll just have to keep going til you hit the 12s! Might be less than you think to get there, suppose it depends where you lose from first! X
So far Ive lost from my fingers!! My engagement ring used to fit quite snug but now it spins around on my finger- will need to get that resized before the wedding (ANOTHER thing to add to the list!!)
Ive lost from my natural waist as well as I have a traditional hourglass type figure- big on the bust and hips!
It's funny though it was one of my many turning points when my engagement ring started to feel uncomfortably tight. Made me realise I needed to get my backside into gear!
It's nice that your waist is coming back- mine used to be really defined and is (very) slowly coming back.
Is your to do list massive? X
The wedding to-do list is slowly getting whittled down but I also keep adding things to it, like making a playlist of music for the ceremony and signing the registrar as I hate silence. Kinda hard though because my taste in music isnt to everyones taste and doesnt really set the tone for a wedding :P (I like heavy rock!)
I also still havent started shopping for my dress, as I want to lose another half a stone and then use it as a reward
At least Ive booked the photographer, food and florist!
How is your list looking? Im sure you'll mention something Ive forgotten!
Lol re your music- I can imagine that being a tricky one. How heavy rock are we talking? I know some bands do acoustic stuff that could be nice- Foo Fighters etc?
Silence might be a bit awkward, but I'm sure your guests would talk amongst themselves too?
I'm with you on the dress front, it will be my reward too! Though I want to be down by about 9lb first.
List is looking long! We have so far booked the ceremony and reception venue, the hog roast, the wedding bus to transport between venues and have made enquiries re a photographer. I've a good idea about my DJ but need to make sure he is available, and flowers I'm going to mostly do myself with the exception of my bouquet, so it shouldn't be too difficult.. I've tried on a few rings but it's a big expense I can't face just yet! Invitations are being made now by the MIL but I need to get my save the dates sorted. Do you send them out a year before? If so they need to go by this weekend haha
My friend bought me a wedding planner organiser thingy that is keeping me on track!
You sound a lot more organised than me!
We are having a civil ceremony at the same venue as our reception so thats sorted. Weve got our DJ, chair covers and booked the registrar as well. Im making the invites, table settings etc as I think Im kinda crafty but havent started making them yet! Got someone in mind to do the cake (mmmm cake!) and seen my bridesmaid/ flowergirl dresses and the ushers outfits (but havent got them yet).
Also making bath bombs for favours for the women but havent made them yet or thought about what to give the male guests.
Havent even started looking at rings (apart from an internet browse).
We are having several children so we are making a little childrens corner with colouring books, lego etc but need to get some stuff for that (good old pound shop and some of my little boys lego probably!) and need to do them favours (thinking sweetie bags!)
Need to think about usher/ bridesmaid gifts and accessories. Accessories for me. Hair and make-up. Venue decoration...
And a million other things probably!!
Oh yeah we have booked the registrar too- wont get far without one will we!
Ahh it's nice that you're making your own, my "craft" skills resemble a tired three year olds attempts at cutting and sticking lol. Have you got your colour scheme?
Mmmm cake! It's the one thing I am making myself- I plan to do lots of practices! Yum yum.
Bath bombs are a great idea for favours! Think were gonna try have girls and boys but not sure exactly yet.
The pound shop is brilliant for kids bits and even wedding decor type stuff, I bought my favour boxes from there! Bargains to be had :-D
The gifts are a really tricky one, we are on a tight budget so was thinking about trying to pick some bits up round Xmas when there are deals around...
Argh I need to write things down lol xx
Our budget is pretty tight as well- hence that I'm trying to be crafty!!
All the stuff you have to think about when planning a wedding is ridiculous!!
Im so jealous about your baking skills! I can just about make muffins but last time I tried to make a large cake it resembled a rock- both in taste and appearance!!

I was wondering if there are any functions already written in PHP which simplify the getting/setting of data to a mySQL tabel. for example:
data_get( 'user', 'varname' ); //will get the value of varname from the user database [ if need be varname could be the row or column #, and i could set constants to take place of those numbers. ]
data_set( 'user', 'varname', 'value' ); //likewise, this would set that same variable with value
Note that the 'user' name im talking about is acctually sepecific to each person that will be using my pages becuase they will ALL have completely different data. Also, arrays are VERY important to what I wanna do, so hopefully those get and set functions can extract arrays from the mySQL table, or if it had to have functions like data_array_get and data_array_set, that would be fine also.
If anyone knows of a PHP script that already does something like this PLEASE let me know, I'm not highly interested in learning all about mySQL, and a pre-written interface like this would be a great help. If there is nothing out there, would anyone be willing to help me write one ? I do know how to program, this is just my first time working with php and mysql, so its still very fuzzy.

:01 Beastie Boys/ Now Get Busy
WIRED: What's your take on this whole copyright controversy? Is file-sharing out of control?
BYRNE: Not really. Imagine if book publishers decided they were against public libraries: Oh no, we don't like this because people can read books without paying for them and it's killing our sales. It's just not true. They might lose a tiny percentage, but they actually gain a lot more.
So you think file-sharing has some benefits?
When I was a kid you could check out LPs from the library, and that was file-sharing. I discovered all kinds of experimental classical music and electronic music I never would have stumbled on if I had to go out and buy it because you couldn't buy it in Baltimore. The local stores didn't have those records.
What are some recent discoveries?
Let me just look at what's on my computer here. I'm listening to a record by a woman named Dani Siciliano - kind of an electronic thing with vocals. I like the new Devendra Banhart record, it's kind of weird folk. I like a lot of the Outkast double CD. Here's a woman named Pietra Montecorvino - who's like an Italian pop singer, but on this record, she did classic Neopolitan songs with this Arabic backup percussionist. It's a great record. I like the Franz Ferdinand record.
So you look to these groups for inspiration, or even to sample?
Oh yeah. On my record Feelings, I sampled a riff from an Italian pop record. One time we played in Italy, and I got to meet the guy; he was thrilled that I'd been listening to his record.
And what about when the Talking Heads have been sampled?
I heard one the other day - Trick Daddy and Ludacris. They were using an old Talking Heads demo tape. It was something that had been released on a box set, but I just thought what are these guys doing listening to this? [Laughs.]
Did you think that was the coolest thing ever?
Yeah. I thought it was kind of the coolest thing ever. - E.S.
When she was 3, Zap Mama founder Marie Daulne's family fled from Zaire to find shelter among the pygmy tribes of central Africa. There she got her first taste of the pygmies' singing: a cross between New Orleans jazz and the sound of raindrops. Years later, she fell hard for American soul and hip hop. Now Zap Mama's sound includes samples as well as collaborations with the Roots and Erykah Badu. But one listen to a cut like "Wadidyusay" tells you pygmy vocals remain Daulne's deepest inspiration. "The pygmies try to imitate what the birds do," she says. "And the birds imitate the sounds of the bees. So I try to be original. But being original means what?" - Julian Dibbell
Some bands record their albums in state-of-the-art studios outfitted with every doodad and gizmo. My Morning Jacket did theirs in an empty grain silo. It's all part of the odd-duck formula that's turned this Kentucky-bred quintet into the unlikely darling of alt-country and prog-rock fans alike. "Some fan of ours sped up the drumbeat from one song and mixed it with [the Supremes classic] 'I Hear a Symphony.' It was great. It became a completely new song," says bassist Tommy Blankenship. "That's one of the main reasons we did this CD with Wired. I'm sure people will be surprised, our being 'the rock band with long hair' and whatnot. But we thought it would be cool to let people mess with real-time instruments as much as they wanted." - Adrienne Day
Britt Daniel has done everything a forward-thinking indie rocker might do to further his career - only he's done it backward. His band, Spoon, left label giant Elektra to sign with the relatively tiny Chapel Hill-based Merge for the 2002 release of Kill the Moonlight, the group's most recent (and best-selling) album. "There aren't any good majors we want to work with now," he says, "and with Merge, we own all our masters" - a rarity in the music industry these days. He's also bucking trends by rejecting technology: The band's upcoming album, tentatively titled Romeo's Apprentice, is less techy than previous recordings, despite Daniel's familiarity with mixing software like ProTools. "We're all on tape now, " the lead singer and guitarist says. "The Beatles and Led Zeppelin didn't have digital recording, and they made the best-sounding records." - A.D.
The busy brain behind groups like Deltron 3030, Dr. Octagon, and Lovage, Dan Nakamura has made a career out of mashing the styles and sounds of an eclectic array of partners. "The music is always greater than just the sum of the contributors' parts," he says. Thus a concept album featuring Brit-pop icon Damon Albarn, underground rapper Del the Funkee Homosapien, and experimental turntablist Kid Koala could have easily been a schizophrenic mess, but as produced by Nakamura, the Gorillaz was a slick and smart style hybrid that became an international smash. "I make collages," he says. "I'm not the kind of guy who samples big, obvious loops from hit songs. I'm more interested in finding lots of random little tones from all over and then creating a totally new track out of the pieces." - E.S.
"Good artists borrow; great artists steal."
So said Pablo Picasso, stealing the aphorism from Igor Stravinsky, who most likely stole it from T. S. Eliot. Half a century or so later, Washington, DC's Rob Garza and Eric Hilton have built the concept into the name of their celebrated two-man DJ unit. "We don't do our music in a vacuum," says Hilton, alluding to the hijacked international sounds that form their formica-smooth electronic grooves. Spacey Jamaican dub and cool Brazilian bossa nova are the dominant ingredients, laced with Indian sitar drone, Arabic howls, and local colors from down the block. So they're not about to get all RIAA about their own jams. Says Hilton: "That would be like living in a glass house." - J.D.
A decade back, Kathleen Hanna never dreamed she'd be thrilling millions of club kids. She was fronting Bikini Kill - a punk band characterized by guitar distortion and screeching vocals - and cared more about subverting the status quo than getting a groove on. But when the group disbanded in 1998, Hanna came up with Le Tigre: Bikini Kill's feminist message set to a beat. Unlike low-fi riot grrrl acts, Hanna's New York-based crew uses laptops, drum machines, and synths to create music that heats up and enlightens the dance floor. "We've always been somewhat of a concept band," she says. "Now we're focused on sounding good while delivering a powerful message." - A.D.
The former leader of the Replacements owns no computer. He doesn't do email. And he famously hates answering machines. So what's he think about technology in music?
Paul on file-sharing: "Anything that leaves my house ends up traded or sold. So I figure once it's out the door that's where it's going." Paul on ProTools: "Now that everybody has the capacity to make a perfect record, it seems redundant to make one. A lot of great rock and roll is not recorded properly or well. I heed that."
Paul on fan sites: "It's a gathering place for people I don't want to talk to. I want to see fans at shows."
Paul on if he'll ever embrace technology: "I like wood and dirt." - Thomas Goetz

Group to unveil new urban agenda
Organizers hope to attract several hundred people Wednesday to Park Ministries for what's being called "A Day of Opportunity."
In addition to commemorating the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington, a group of emerging leaders will release a "new policy agenda" to address issues in North Carolina affecting education, economics, workforce development, health, civic engagement and social justice.
The group, all young volunteers, was formed by Patrick Graham, president and CEO of the Urban League of the Carolinas, in the immediate aftermath of George Zimmerman's acquittal in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.
Graham met with Qcitmetro to talk about the event. The Q&A below is based on that interview.
Q. What's going to happen on Wednesday, August 28?
You will see some entertainment and celebration of the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington. But then you will see the release of the actual public policy agenda itself and the very specific types of policy initiatives that we want to address. For example, under "education" we are going to be releasing a policy agenda that asked the North Carolina legislature to take us from being 46th in the nation per capita investment for students to the top 20 percent over the next five years. Under "civic engagement," we want to increase the amount of people that are registered and that vote in precincts that are low- to moderate-performing in the next two years. It is these types of policies that you will see discussed. We want a repeal of the current unemployment benefit system in North Carolina. To take people from 26 weeks (of unemployment benefits) down to 12 weeks, to take them from $500 a week to just a little over $300 a week, is creating a situation where people will have limited wages but will actually be living in poverty, and that's not what we want for North Carolina.
Q. Why call it a Day of Opportunity?
We actually look at everyone as "at-opportunity." Instead of looking at communities as "at-risk," we look at them as at-opportunity to be human capital and human resources that can lead us to a more competitive Charlotte, a more competitive North Carolina, a more competitive nation. We don't look at the situations we face as grave and insurmountable. We look at them as opportunities for a new way of thinking, a new way of operating. These types of movements, just like the Civil Rights Movement, started in similar fashion, with ideas that people actually began to do.
Q. Is this an Urban League event?
This is an event that we are facilitating, but it's actually made up of a group of individuals. Over 60 people are on the planning committee for this event. These are people who want to see us do something different in North Carolina concerning public policy.
Q. What gives you optimism?
I'm very optimistic because, one, the group of individuals who are working on this, the average age is 30 years old. With that, you have people who have access to social media, people who have larger networks. I see this as an opportunity to get a younger generation engaged around leadership in civil rights and discourse. Another reason that I'm optimistic is that this is a different approach – we're talking about a sustained movement, not of rallies, but actually meeting with elected officials, local business, to really try and get their support on trying to change some of these policies in North Carolina. I believe that it starts with our grassroots politicians, getting them on board with this agenda so that they can also carry this to the state level. It's about meeting people in these rural communities, because many of the senators and representatives that you see at the state level are coming from rural communities where people don't have a full understanding of how these things impact them, and many of them are poor. So this is an opportunity also for us to create coalitions and cross race and class lines.
Q. These types of initiatives seem to come and go. What's different about this one?
A problem we see with a lot of agendas is that they are very short term; you're only talking about what happens in a budget year as opposed to setting out a marker – long distance – that we actually strive toward that creates more sustainable funding and more sustainable communities. We've already proven that it can work. Think about the fact that we have the State of Ethnic Charlotte initiative, of which this is a part. It had policy recommendations for the private sector. One of the things that came out of it was the Urban League Bank. That Urban League Bank now, since November – which came out of that initiative – has leant $2.7 million to minority business. Hundreds of accounts for those who were un-banked, or un-bankable, are now here. So we know there are things that can work, and we can see them. So it's a matter now of telling that story and getting more people involved that can happen.

World Chefs: Overcoming skepticism about meatless meals
Aug 9, 2011, 3:18 a.m.
Q: Was it an easy thing to do?"
A: "It really was because I just experimented."
Q: A big concern for vegetarians is getting enough protein. How do you address that?
A: "Whole grains, beans and nuts are naturally rich in proteins and even vegetables that people don't expect. My favorite thing to tell people is that a cup of steamed broccoli has five grams of proteins, so when you sit down and eat two cups of steamed broccoli you are going to eat 10 grams of protein, which is the equivalent to maybe half a chicken breast. When you incorporate all these things together in whole meals you will find that you have more than enough protein."
Q: What advice would you give a family that wants to reduce the amount of animal protein in their diet?
A: "I would say approach it from the idea that you will do it slowly and take it one step at a time ... Make the food and it will speak for itself. When you have clean plates you will realize that your family may be more ready for this than you think."
Green and Red Lentil Enchiladas (makes 8)
1 30-ounce cans of prepared green enchilada sauce, divided
1 1/2 cups water
1 cup red lentils, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped (optional)
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
8 to 10 corn tortillas or La Hacienda de Peas Tortillas
2 cups non-dairy (i.e. Daiya) or organic cheese
1 4-ounce can sliced olives, drained
Trimmings: non-dairy or organic sour cream, chopped cilantro, shredded lettuce, diced fresh tomatoes
1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Bring one can enchilada sauce and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add lentils, onion and jalapeno, if using, and cook approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Liquid should be absorbed completely and lentils should be tender. Stir in chopped cilantro and set aside.
Meanwhile, wrap 8 to 10 tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave for approximately 30 to 45 seconds to soften
4. Pour the last can of green enchilada sauce in the bottom of a baking dish.
5. Put several spoonfuls of the lentil mixture into each tortilla and roll, placing the tortilla seam-side down in the prepared pan. Repeat with remaining tortillas
6. Pour an additional cup of green enchilada sauce over rolled tortillas (you may not use all the sauce), and top with cheese and sliced olives.

On another note, I have frozen a bananna (about 5min submersed) and then used it to hammer a 6" nail into a plank of wood. Pingpong balls and tennis balls are equally entertaining.
And I`m surprised about the PSP surviving liquid nitrogen comment... Granted, there`s superconductivity at low temperatures (meaning it MAY work even better) but as the PSP thawed, I be there was a LOT of condensation - almost like dunking it in water

Thanks, this will really help
Thanks, this will really help
This is really useful. Thanks!
This list is crazy awesome. Cant believe all the stuff I found that I was looking for. Thanks.
wow. Very helpful information. interesting.!!
Curious if anyone has any experience casting with products from Casting Resins & RTV Silicone Rubber for Resin Casting ? They seemed substantially cheaper than the smooth-on products, but sometimes you get what you pay for? I'm new to this, so I don't want to get burned.
The link for TicGums doesn't work anymore. The link to the store was dead, but the link to the product page is here: Hydrocolloids, Gums, & Stabilizers for food texture or maybe just a link to the main page at TIC Gums - Texture and stabilization solutions for the food industry What on earth is this used for anyway?
Cool thread!!

Christmas may be over, but the holiday shopping did not stop until the last minute, and St. Lawrence Countys small businesses reaped the benefits.
It started out a bit slowly, but it has been a good season the last week and a half, said Marilyn L. Mintener, owner of the Pear Tree gift shop, 77 Main St., Canton.
Im really pleased with the support we have had throughout the county, she said.
At Mares Wares, 3938 State Highway 37, Morristown, Christmas trees sold out by Dec. 8, the earliest ever.
Owner Mary Ann Evans attributed the spike in business to the growing popularity of her annual arts festival, which is held behind the store every summer.
I run the arts fest every year, and I get a lot of people realizing what I do here, she said.
Business took a hit during the typically busy weekend before Christmas because the ice storm prevented shoppers from leaving their homes.
My weekend sales were dramatically cut down, Ms. Evans said. However, business has still been better than ever despite the storm, she said.
The Pear Tree was also affected by the bad weather, but Ms. Mintener said the storm led to an especially busy Christmas Eve.
They made up for it today, trust me, she said Tuesday. They knew they had to get out, the sun was shining, and people were really getting in the spirit.
Christmas shopping was sluggish nationally. Customers spent about $1.7 billion less during Novembers Black Friday weekend than in 2012, according to The New York Times. Yet small businesses in St. Lawrence County reported no such problems.
Weve been very, very busy; people are very happy, said Pamela S. Hazen, owner of Isle of You at 17 Market St., Potsdam.
The last two days have been crazy, she said on Christmas Eve. Its a little better than last year, actually.
Ms. Hazen attributes this success to customers tiring of major retail chains and preferring to shop locally.
Its definitely not a big-box store, and thats why were doing so well. People are over the big box, she said.
Deidra M. Peets, owner of Dees Crafts at 284 Carey Road, Massena, reported a similarly successful year.
I did amazing; I did really well, she said.
Ms. Peets sells mostly hand-made wood crafts, and says the busy season has been about the same as the last few years.
The last few years have been really good, she said.
Business owners said the Christmas shopping season is a make-or-break time for many stores going into the typically slow winter months.
It matters tremendously, Ms. Mintener said. You need to be doing well this season, because youve tied your money up in a lot of Christmas merchandise.
Its everything, really, Ms. Evans said. It gets me through the whole winter.

Lanxess Brings Forward Butyl Rubber Project in Singapore
January 18, 2010 | Deepti Ramesh
Lanxess says it will bring forward its plans to build the previously announced new butyl rubber facility at Jurong Island, Singapore. The 100,000-m.t./year plant, with an investment of about €400 million ($575 million) was delayed twice in the past, due to falling demand for the product. Lanxess says it will hold a groundbreaking ceremony in May 2010, and production is expected to start in the first quarter of 2013. Demand has stabilized in the last six months and the global butyl rubber market is expected to grow again by an average of more than 3%/year in...

Mustard Greens with Olives and Cheese
Mustard greens were popular in Italy in the Middle Ages and have all but disappeared today. A check of many of Italy's best markets, including the one in Padova, did not yield a trace of this ruffled-edge, green leafy vegetable, but that did not discourage me from reintroducing them on a garden segment of Ciao Italia.
I learned how to cook them from my mother. She cooked mounds of this pungent, mustard-tasting vegetable in large amounts of boiling water, then drained and squeezed the greens dry. She mixed them into scrambled eggs and put them between slices of coarse bread for lunch. They were never a requested food from me. Now older and wiser, I can't wait to plant mustard greens each year in my home garden and I like them sautéed with dark-as-midnight, pungent black olives and cheese.
1 teaspoon salt for cooking the greens
2 pounds mustard greens, leaves only, washed
1/4 cup Filippo Berio Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup black oil-cured olives, pitted and cut in quarters
Fine sea salt to taste
Grinding of coarse black pepper
1/4 cup grated Pecorino or crumbled Sardinian feta cheese
Fill a soup pot with water and bring to a boil, add 1 teaspoon of salt and the mustard greens, and cook, uncovered, for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain the mustard greens in a colander and, when cool enough to handle, squeeze out all the excess water. Chop the greens coarsely and set them aside.
In a sauté pan, heat the olive oil, add the garlic and olives, and stir until the garlic softens but does not turn brown. Add the mustard greens and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish and add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle the cheese over the top and serve immediately.
Note: This dish can also be used as a sauce for dressing one of the hollow-tube pastas cut into short pieces such as rigatoni, penne, or ziti.
Did you know that if green vegetables such as mustard greens, broccoli, and green beans are boiled uncovered, they will retain their green color? The acids in the vegetables evaporate during the cooking process, and when vegetables are cooked with a lid, these acids can turn green vegetables a dull gray-green color.

Natalie Lowe
Occupation: Dancer
Nationality: Australian
Born: November 28, 1980 (34)
Natalie Lowe, a four time Australian Dance Champion, burst onto TV screens as the newest professional dancer in the 2009 series of Strictly Come Dancing. Teamed up alongside ex-Hollyoaks star Ricky Whittle, Lowe shook up the competition by romping to second place with what judge Len Goodman described as one of the most "formidable" Strictly partnerships ever. Lowe, who also appeared in five series of Australia's Dancing With The Stars, has since gone on to dance with soap star Scott Maslen and cricketer Michael Vaughan, but missed the 2013 series of Strictly due to injury.

Can You Trust Sidney Rice and Golden Tate?
Seattle Seahawks wide receivers Sidney Rice and Golden Tate each have six touchdowns heading into the bye. In the past three games Rice has scored four touchdowns. Tate has scored three touchdowns over the same stretch while adding a touchdown pass, which happened to go to Rice.
Can you trust them for your fantasy team?
Rice is easier to trust. Not only does he have more yards (475 to 334), he at least has the 2009 season (1312 yards, eight touchdowns) on his resume. Brett Favre made Rice a star that year. While Russell Wilson won't take him to that same level, a double-digit touchdown season would not be out of reach. Every 8.15 receptions Rice has had throughout his career have gone for a touchdown.
Rice is 6'4″ with good leaping ability and body control. He has a knack for going up and getting the ball.
That is very impressive considering what he has had to work with other than Favre's magical season.
Rice's biggest issue has been his inability to stay healthy. He has missed 29 games in his six-year career. If he can stay healthy, he should remain a decent fantasy play.
Unfortunately he is averaging just 47.5 yards per game so unless he scores, you're not getting a great game from Rice. He has five touchdowns in his past five games, but is only averaging 55.2 yards per game during the stretch.
Rice has only topped 55 yards in two of ten games, and his season high is 81 yards.
Meanwhile Tate is averaging just 33.4 yards per game. His touchdowns have been his fantasy salvation because his season high in receiving yards is 68, and 24 of those yards came on a bad call that should have been an interception. Tate has just one other game with more than 52 yards.
Tate is just 5'10″, but he's a playmaker. He just doesn't get enough touches to be a consistent threat. In three years and 36 games Tate has just 943 yards.
The Seahawks have a few solid matchups coming up. They face the Miami Dolphins coming out of the bye, which should help the duos' cause.
The Chicago Bears and Arizona Cardinals follow and present more difficult challenges.
In Week 15 they take on the Buffalo Bills, which could be favorable. At least it's in a dome (in Toronto) so weather won't be an issue.
The San Francisco 49ers make for a tough matchup in Week 16.
Two out of his five matchups look solid. Of course, if you look at Russell Wilson's splits, you may be singing a different tune.
At home Wilson has thrown 11 touchdowns without an interception. On the road Wilson has thrown four touchdowns and eight interceptions. Both the Dolphins and Bills game are on the road. That presents an issue.
Going forward I would consider Rice a borderline WR3. His ability to score touchdowns should at least give him consideration when you're setting your fantasy lineups.
Tate, unfortunately, is a WR4 at best. He may end up with a nice game, but it's a risk I wouldn't take.
What are your thoughts on this duo?

|(NEW YORK) -- A Brooklyn police sergeant was charged Thursday with extorting $2,500 from undercover FBI agents posing as customers at a Chinese
nightclub known for prostitution in Queens.
Jay Zhao, 32, a patrol supervisor in the 78th Precinct, was released on $150,000 bond following his arraignment in Brooklyn federal court.
Calls to his attorney were not returned.
Police officials confirmed that Zhao had been arrested and suspended from the force, but they declined to comment further.
Authorities said Zhao's arrest stemmed from an FBI and Internal Affairs Bureau investigation into allegations that he and other off-duty officers were collecting $5,000 a month in protection money from the club.
According to court papers, FBI agents posing as businessmen from Chicago first met Zhao at the club in late 1998. One asked if they could hire him as private security for their employer.
The agent" explained to Zhao that his employer would be entertaining clients in New York" and "wanted to avoid being arrested if they were to obtain prostitutes and gamble after conducting business, "the papers said.
Prosecutors allege that the off-duty sergeant took the job for $1,000 a day. In exchange, he allegedly chaperoned the undercovers and their "boss" while they openly mixed with prostitutes, gamblers, and drug dealers at the club and other spots over two days last April.

Novak Djokovic breezed through to the quarterfinals while David Ferrer crashed out at the Western & Southern Open in Mason, Ohio, near Cincinnati.
The Serbian world No. 1 had no issues with David Goffin, dispatching the Belgian qualifier 6-2 6-0 in only 51 minutes.
It was an imperious display by Djokovic, who broke serve twice in the first set and three times in the second to advance to a meeting with American John Isner.
Ferrer, the third seed, continued his run of recent poor form as he was eliminated by Ukrainian Dmitry Tursunov 6-2 6-4.
The Spaniard was bundled out at the first hurdle by Alex Bogomolov Jr at the Rogers Cup in Montreal less than two weeks ago.
There were no such issues for second-seed Andy Murray, who comfortably accounted for Frenchman Julien Benneteau 6-2 6-2 to set up a quarterfinal with sixth-seeded Czech Tomas Berdych; a 6-2 6-4 victor over Spain's Tommy Robredo.
Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer will feature in a blockbuster quarterfinal despite both enduring mixed performances.
Spanish fourth-seed Nadal recovered from losing the second set to triumph 6-2 5-7 6-2 against Bulgaria's Grigor Dimitrov.
Nadal held a 4-3 lead in the second set and had a point to make it 5-3 before the Bulgarian engineered a comeback that sent it to a third set.
Swiss maestro Federer crumbled in the first set but found his trademark form afterwards to record a 1-6 7-5 6-3 win over German veteran Tommy Haas.
After having his serve broken twice in the first set, the Swiss fifth-seed again dropped serve at the start of the second set but lifted with an excellent performance to see out the match.
In other results, seventh seed Juan Martin Del Potro defeated Feliciano Lopez 6-4 1-6 6-4 to set up a meeting with Tursunov, while Isner knocked out 12th-seed Milos Raonic 7-6 (7-5) 6-4 but will be underdog against Djokovic for a place in the semifinals.
On the women's side, leading seeds Serena Williams and Victoria Azarenka progressed to the quarterfinals.
Top seed Williams comfortably dispatched Germany's Mona Barthel in straight sets 6-4 6-1 in 65 minutes.
The American broke Barthel in the first game of the match and, despite conceding her serve in the ninth game, Williams clinched the first set off the German's service immediately afterwards.
There were no such hiccups in the second set as the world No. 1 broke Barthel's serve twice to quickly wrap the match and set up a quarter-final with giant-killer Simona Halep, who knocked off Samantha Stosur.
Australia's Stosur put in a disappointing performance as her Romanian opponent dented the 11th-seeds claims for a second US Open title later this month with a 6-4 4-6 6-2 triumph.
It was Halep's second upset victory in a row after the Romanian also eliminated Wimbledon champion Marion Bartoli earlier in the tournament, seemingly prompting the Frenchwoman's retirement.
Azarenka, the second seed, struggled on serve during her 6-3 6-4 win over Slovakia's Magdalena Rybarikova; the Belarusian dropping serve five times over the two sets with her opponent unable to capitalize.
The world number two will now meet 10th seed Caroline Wozniacki in the quarter finals after the Dane clinched a 3-6 6-2 6-3 result against Russia's Petra Kvitova.
Poland's fourth seed Agnieszka Radwanska dominated Russia's Elena Vesnina 6-0 6-2 and will now meet China's Li Na in the next round.
Li, the fifth seed, defeated Germany's Angelique Kerber 6-4 6-4 despite dropping serve twice in the second set.
In an all-Italian battle, 12th seed Roberta Vinci overcame Sara Errani 6-4 6-3 and is now paired in a quarterfinal with Serbia's Jelena Jankovic, who eliminated America's Sloane Stephens 3-6 7-5 7-5.

Huntington's Disease
Huntington's disease is an inherited progressive dementia that affects the individual's cognition, behavior and movement. Huntington's disease does not skip generations. Each child of a parent with Huntington's has a 50/50 chance of inheriting the defective gene. If a child does not inherit the gene, he or she cannot pass it on. If the child does inherit the gene, he or she can pass it on and will develop the disease.
The cognitive and behavioral symptoms of dementia due to Huntington's include memory problems, impaired judgment, problems with short-term memory, organizing, coping, concentrating, mood swings, depression and speech problems (especially slurred speech). Delusions and hallucinations may occur. In addition, the individual may experience fidgety behavior, lack of coordination, difficulty ambulating, and uncontrollable jerking movements of the face and body. Symptoms that may also occur are irritability, anxiety, aggressive outbursts and social withdrawal.
The average lifespan after onset is 10-25 years and the younger the age of onset, the more rapid the progression of the disease. Symptoms generally appear between the ages of 30 and 50, but can strike children and young adults.
The gene discovery has made possible a predictive test for Huntington's from a blood sample allowing those at risk to find out whether or not they will develop the disease. Pre-and post-test counseling is critical.

According to this Nun she said," I did not know I was pregnant. I only felt a stomach pain." Wow, unbelievable right? Talk of surprises. A mystery considering the nature way, of procreation with the mating of a male and female. Yes, they are other ways without mating. Did she have a partner? Let's wait and see as the details are unfold.

While Robert Joffrey believed in reviving forgotten 20th century masterworks and introducing the world to up and coming talent, he also loved to present the works of current masters, often Europeans. One such master was South African choreographer John Cranko who worked primarily with Sadler's Wells Ballet (later renamed The Royal Ballet) and the Stuttgart Ballet where he became artistic director. Cranko trained in Cape Town, but moved with his father to London at a young age. His first works as a choreographer were created on the dancers of Sadler's Wells.
Until the 1970s, Cranko's work was largely performed outside of the US, but Robert Joffrey added one of Cranko's earliest works, Pineapple Poll, to the company's 1970 season thus introducing this work to the American audience. The score of Pineapple Poll came from the music of Arthur Sullivan, relying on the Gilbert and Sullivan repertoire. Sullivan's copyright on the music had run out in 1950, prompting arranger Sir Charles Mackerras to come up with a way to rearrange it into ballet work for Sadler's Wells. Together with Cranko, they refashioned the "The Bumboat Woman's Story" from the Gilbert and Sullivan opera H.M.S. Pinafore into a new, comedic ballet.
Further Cranko pieces such as Jeu de Cartes and Opus I were included in the 1975 season. Jeu de Cartes features a score by Stravinsky parodying fellow composers Rossini, Tchaikovsky and Ravel and the ballet is about a poker game with dueling packs of cards and a Joker who disrupts the proceedings.
Further short works by Cranko were presented in the 1977 and 1978 seasons, Pas de Deux Holberg and Brouillards respectively. Brouillards world premiered in 1970 with the Stuttgart Ballet and is based upon nine of composer Claude Debussy's piano preludes. The title of the piece means 'mists' with the dancers appearing and disappearing from the stage leaving behind nothing but memories. Here is a short piece found online featuring dancers from the Stuttgart Ballet
Moving into the 1980s, the Joffrey Ballet was ready to handle some of Cranko's full length works. In 1981, the company mounted their production of Taming of the Shrew. World premiered in 1969 with the Stuttgart Ballet, the piece is based on Shakespeare's story of the breaking of an ill tempered woman by her male suitor; a story of how good nature and virtuous love heals the soul more than hot tempers. It was universally well received and firmly announced that the new dancers in the company we well suited to define the work of the Joffrey throughout the 1980s.
In 1984, Cranko's Romeo and Juliet received its first American debut with the Joffrey. Another ballet set to a Shakespeare play with music by Prokofiev, the Joffrey premiered it at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC with Patricia Miller as Juliet and James Canfield as Romeo. A large and colorful production featuring a 2 tiered set, the company's performance was said to breathe life into Shakespeare's well worn play due the young age of the cast who danced with youthful exuberance rather than tight technique.
Tragically, Cranko died at 46 in 1973 from an allergic reaction to a sleeping pill he took while on a transatlantic flight. His work now lives on in the repertoire of the UK's Birmingham Royal Ballet and is regularly performed by companies all over the world.← Ballet Spotlight: Light Rain The scandalous rite of 1913 →

WILMINGTON, Del., Aug. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Pear & Berry, a company that specializes in producing top-quality supplements for dogs with hip and joint issues, has just announced the release of an innovative new product that provides the answer to a common question dog owners often have: how to naturally and safely treat arthritis in dogs.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130823/MN68652)
As anybody who has had a dog with hip dysplasia or arthritis knows quite well, it can be devastating to watch a beloved family pet have a hard time getting around. While medication and surgery can often help, they are also very costly solutions that many dog owners simply cannot afford. In addition, the pain medications that are typically used to treat dogs with hip dysplasia and arthritis often have dangerous side effects, including chronic liver and kidney problems.
This is where a high quality, all-natural supplement like P&B Hip and Joint Support can help. P&B Hip and Joint Support was specially formulated by a biochemist who has over 28 years of experience studying and working on the complex relationships that exist between natural ingredients and their ability to help with pain relief and joint health.
Through its combination of glucosamine for dogs, chondroitin, MSM and vitamin C—all of which have at least two decades of research behind them—many dogs are able to grow and rebuild their damaged and torn cartilage, which helps them to feel much better. In addition, P&B Hip and Joint Support carries an NASC label, which means it has achieved the highest quality standards in the industry.
"Veterinarians trust glucosamine and chondroitin to prevent the erosion of joints and even reverse years of damage to the tissues that protect your dog's joints," an article on the company's website noted, adding

Suited in rich gold and black coloring, this new Blade 98 provides an extremely solid feel and nice pop. Weighing in at just over 11 ounces the BLX Blade 98 packs a lot of punch from the baseline while offering a forgiving touch. There is plenty of control to be had as well with its tight string pattern as our testers found while hitting groundstrokes. At net, the stability rings true, as this stick handles incoming passing attempts with minimal torsional twisting. A healthy sweetspot and solid feel add forgiveness when volleying. When serving, the control makes placement easier to come by while there's plenty of power on reserve when reaching back for the heater.
