TBS's MY MANNY Returns for a Fourth Season With Walmart as the Exclusive Sponsor
MY MANNY to Premiere on TBS in Tyler Perry's MEET THE BROWNS Commercial Pods June 30
TBS is returning with a fourth season of the successful microseries MY MANNY this summer with Walmart as the exclusive sponsor. MY MANNY will premiere on June 30 and air twice every Wednesday evening for five consecutive weeks within specialized commercial breaks within Tyler Perry's MEET THE BROWNS at 10 and 10:30 p.m. All ten of the two-minute episodes will encore at tbs.com.
MY MANNY is a heartwarming, comedic TBS microseries starring Elise Neal (Hustle & Flow), Alana Ubach (Hung), Sharif Atkins (ER, White Collar), Greg Alan Williams (Remember the Titans) and Tarren Mason. The microseries is directed by Glen Owen and Angela Barnes Gomes and produced by State Line Films. It premiered on TBS in January 2009, with Walmart sponsoring the second season last summer.
"We are delighted to come together with Walmart for another season of this successful microseries," said Linda Yaccarino, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Turner Entertainment Ad Sales/Marketing and Acquisitions. "As the storyline and characters have grown, so have our advertising opportunities, including first-ever digital enhancements to a Walmart shopping opportunity available through the MY MANNY micro site."
MY MANNY tells the story of Jennifer Peterson (Neal), an attractive widow who is struggling to balance a full-time catering career and the needs of her young son Jamel (Mason). When Jennifer's nanny called out sick in the first season, her agency surprised her by sending a very handsome "manny" as a replacement. Mike (Atkins) immediately becomes a role model for Jamel and Jennifer found herself becoming increasingly unnerved over her own feelings for him. Jennifer's neighbor and friend Melanie (Ubach) certainly didn't help the situation when she fueled the fire by encouraging Jennifer to act on her feelings for Mike.
Jennifer is a hardworking professional woman, looking for balance in her life and ways to save money, live better and move her family ahead. The fourth season picks up as Jennifer and Mike finally agreeing to start dating. As a protective mom, Jennifer is reluctant to share the good news with Jamel, despite Melanie insisting she tells him. The fourth season also sees Grandpa (Williams) stepping in as the new Manny, while Mike goes back to school.
Walmart serves as the natural backdrop to select episodes, including a shopping trip to take advantage of Rollbacks on Fourth of July grilling supplies and products featured on the set.
"Partnering with TBS for MY MANNY was a natural fit for Walmart as many of our customers can relate to Jennifer's story," said Wanda Austin-Wingood, Director of Africanic Marketing for Walmart. "Many families are looking for easy ways to save money and live better through Walmart's Rollback program, and we hope to give them the opportunity to enjoy the summer for less."
Online, tbs.com will feature a custom MY MANNY section, sponsored exclusively by Walmart. The site includes an interactive shopping video, highlighting Walmart products featured in various episodes of the show. The video will allow users to link back to Walmart.com for purchase information, a first-of-its-kind opportunity for the Turner microseries. The micro site will also feature cast bios, photography, show description, interactive episode guide and additional background to complement the on-air content.
TBS will drive awareness for MY MANNY and Tyler Perry's MEET THE BROWNS through custom on-air tune-ins featured each week and leading up to the premiere each Wednesday evening, presented exclusively by Walmart. TBS will also feature in-show graphics and creative billboards airing within the featured episodes.
MY MANNY will air within Tyler Perry's MEET THE BROWNS, the #2 series on all of television, behind only American Idol, in delivery of African-Americans 18-49. Tyler Perry's MEET THE BROWNS, which currently airs Wednesday nights on TBS, stars David Mann (Madea Goes to Jail) as thefun-loving, wardrobe-challenged "Downtown" Leroy Brown, who is trying to fulfill his father's dying wish by opening a retirement home called Brown Meadows.

and The Lothians
Chapter VII - Some Closes
and Houses in High Street and Canongate
LET us walk from the Castle Gate to the porch at
Holyrood and look at some places on the way. I avoid minute detail. In
going over the indwellers one is apt to lose a sense of proportion, to
forget that whilst Hume and Bums and Scott are of the world and all time,
"auld worthy, faithfu� Provost Dick" and Bailie Macmorran are only City
folk, and Allan Ramsay, and even Fergusson, only for Scotland. Where there
is such a wealth of crop you can neglect all but the finest of the wheat.
A little way down on your left hand you pass the back
of the Free Kirk College. Here stood the palace of Mary of Lorraine and
Guise, widow of James V., where she lived in the middle of the sixteenth
century. Tradition still dwells on the high ceiling and
beautiful decoration of the hall, of the long array of windows on the
north side and the far prospect they disclosed, and the gardens that
sloped down to the Nor� Loch. You will not neglect its successor, the
quaint little quadrangle, made up of a college on the west and a kirk�the
Free High, as it is called�on the east, the Assembly Hall on the south,
and the entrance gateway on the north, which opens on the Mound, and is
thus rather of the new than of the old town.
It is a symbolical half-way house, for old Scotland
lives for us most vividly in certain forms of its faith. This same gateway
is adorned with two tall towers, and looking at it from Princes Street you
see just behind the steeple of the state church Assembly Hall, at the
junction of High Street and Lawnmarket, and not far from the old place of
meeting in St Giles�. The view from Princes Street seemed to Dean Stanley
a symbol of the dependence of the new forms on the old. It was vacation
time as I strolled in the quadrangle. I read the text on the place of
meeting, "Praise Him in the assembly of the Elders," and the inscription
on the not successful statue of John Knox in the quadrangle. He looked
"dour," not to say "sour" enough to justify Browning�s unhappy epithet. In
life John Knox was the enemy of the Regent, and a certain quaintness has
been found in the fact that his statue stands in her very gates. But one
effect of the narrow space is to fill Edinburgh in present fact and past
history with every manner of whimsical contrast. The charger of Charles
II.'s statue in the Parliament Close tramples on the grave of Knox, or is
only restrained from doing it by the exigencies of the pedestal.
Going down the street you pass James�s Court, with
memories of Hume and Boswell and Dr Johnson. This old place, dating from
1725-27, made havoc in its time of many an ancient
close. It was a daring speculation of James Brownhill, a builder of the
time, hence its name. Across the way is Riddle�s Court, formerly Bailie
Macmorran�s Close. The Bailie had a tragic fate. He was shot in a riot of
the High School boys by William Sinclair, ancestor of the Earls of
Caithness. Next it is Brodie�s Close, called from that interesting
malefactor, whom we shall meet again; and just about where George IV.
Bridge and the road it carries run southward was Libberton�s Wynd, and in
it Johnnie Dowie�s Tavern,
"Where couthy chields at e�ening meet,
Their bizzin craigs and mou�s to weet."
Among the "couthy chields" were Robert Fergusson and
Robert Burns.
Going over to the north side again, you look at Lady
Stair�s Close. This Lady Stair was granddaughter of Lord High Chancellor
Louden, and was married when young to Lord Primrose of Castlefield, who
was scarce sane. Once he advanced with drawn sword to kill her: she saw
the reflection in the mirror, and wild with fear, jumped out of the window
into the street, and fled, half-dressed, to her mother-in-law. Naturally
she would have none of him, husband as he was. But she was destined to see
him once again, and again in a mirror. He had gone abroad, and apparently
was lost, when there came to Edinburgh an Italian magician, who professed
to show those interested in the absent what those same absent were doing
at the moment. The lady and her friend sought the magician, dressed as
servants, though their speech and their hands easily betrayed them. After
certain weird rites he exhibited a mirror, wherein appeared a succession
of scenes, like a modern cinematograph�a church, a bridal party, a service
interrupted at the critical moment by a man with a drawn sword. Then the
vision faded, not before the lady had recognized in the bridegroom her own
husband, in the intruder her own brother. She marked the day and the hour,
and then, as you guess, in due time the brother turned up and described
how Lord Primrose was about to commit bigamy with the only daughter of a
wealthy merchant in a Dutch town when he was stopped in the nick of time
by the brother, who (strange coincidence!) just then strolled into the
church where the service was in progress. Comparison showed the day and
hour of the vision and the event to be identical. Lord Primrose died
abroad in 1706, and his widow had many wooers, chief among them the Earl
of Stair, one of the best parties in Scotland. She would have none of him,
for she dreaded marriage, but he found means, by a not very creditable
trick, of forcing her to marry him to save her reputation. He was a
perfect spouse, save when "disguised in liquor," as our ancestors phrased
it, when he mauled her unmercifully. Unfortunately the Scots gentlemen of
the period were so frequently "disguised" in this manner that the
exception seemed not seldom the rule. Once he found her in the morning
covered with blood, and like one distracted he was filled with concern and
grief, which increased when he discovered that he himself was the cause of
the trouble. To abjure the bottle altogether was a counsel of perfection
too great for a Scots nobleman; at least he would only take what drink she
handed him. Contemporary accounts report, with admiration, his
faithful observance of this vow, but perhaps the lady was reasonably
liberal. He died in 1747. Funerals were one of the great spectacles
of the time, but his was of a complicated splendour, that long lingered in
the memories of admiring mourners. His widow survived him twelve years.
The Douglas Cause in its own days excited everybody as
the Tichborne Trial did in later times. Lord Dundonald told the Duke of
Douglas that Lady Stair held certain views. Let him be thought "a damned
villain" if he spoke not the truth. Lady Stair was equal to the occasion.
She proceeded to Holyrood in full state, and in presence of the Duke and
all his satellites she smote the floor with her staff three times, and
each time gave the Earl, with the utmost of emphasis, the name he had
craved. Scott�s story of My Aunt Margaret�s Mirror is founded on
this Lady Stair tradition. Lord Rosebery restored the house in this close
of his forefathers and gifted it to the town.
Legends of interest hang round all the closes. These
legends are mainly of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, because
the chronicler was then more in evidence. But for centuries before the
close teemed with its own busy life, though its records are dim and dark.
Once this close was called Lady Gray�s, and earlier it had other terms.
Even yet, in the smaller Scots towns, the close is named from the chief
indweller for the time being. In Edinburgh it was so till some famous
character made a more permanent impression, or a time of street
nomenclature fixed a transitory appellation. From Lady Stair�s Close you
could see the window of the room where Burns spent the winter of 1786,
though the entrance to the house was from Upper Baxter�s Close, which as a
separate entry has now vanished. The tavern played a great part�harmful or
otherwise�in the life of Old Edinburgh, as it did in the life of Robert
Burns. Of his "howf" at Libberton�s Wynd, across the way, I have spoken.
But further down on the north side, and near Cockburn Street, is Anchor
Close, and there at the house of Dawny Douglas met the Crochallan
Fencibles�called, it is guessed, from a Gaelic song sung by the
landlord�and with them Burns laughed and drank, and they received him with
open arms, and he has given them the only thing he had to give, and that
was immortality.
In jumping from Lady Stair�s Close to Anchor Close I
have gone over a great deal that deserves notice. We have passed
Advocates� Close, where Andrew Crosby, known to readers of Guy
Mannering as Councillor Pleydell, lived. Warriston�s Close was called
after that stern covenanting Lord Advocate, whose courage, a rare thing,
well nigh deserted him on the scaffold. When they carried Baillie of
Jerviswood along the High Street to his death�he was too infirm to go
unaided�he lifted his eyes to Warriston�s window and spoke to his
sister-in-law, the Lady Graden, who was with him to the end, of the high
talk he had held with her father some twenty years before. John Knox had
for long his abode here, as a tablet on the wall reminds. The publishing
offices of Messrs W. & R. Chambers, Limited, now occupy most of this
close, which is all fresh and so is famous only for its memories. A lintel
built into the new part preserves the memory of the family of Bruce,
earlier occupants of the close and of sufficient renown in their day and
generation. Then there is Writer�s Court, famous for another tavern called
Clerihugh�s, where Colonel Mannering found Mr Pleydell engaged in high
jinks of the maddest.
Of the Royal Exchange, built between 1753 and 1761, and
considered a great improvement in its time, I note that its chief use now
is as the City Chambers or Guildhall, and a rather poor Guildhall it is
for a city like Edinburgh. It contains, however, the valuable Corporation
Museum, where is collected an enormous mass of material relating to the
past of the town. If you want to know Old Edinburgh you must give up many
days to the treasures of this collection. Across the street, on the south
side, there is much of interest between the Tron and the Parliament Close.
Old Assembly Close, where were held those aristocratic meetings, removed
thither from the West Bow and thence to George Street, was presided over
by Nickie Murray, satirized in their day by Goldsmith. Covenant Close is
so called because a version of that famous document was signed there, and
here, the mythical Nanty Ewart, and the real Weir of Hermiston, to wit,
Lord Braxfield, lived, and hard by, in the open space of Hunter Square,
near the Tron, was the Black Turnpike, where Mary spent the terrible night
after Carberry Hill; and just behind, in Kennedy�s Close, lived and died
George Buchanan.
The Tron Church marks the crossway over the North and
South Bridges, to-day the great thoroughfare between Old and New Edinburgh
and the most pronounced break in all your walk. You might call it the
central part of Edinburgh, the place where the Old Town and New Town meet,
and where the different currents encounter. Towards midnight on the last
day of the year a great crowd here assembles to hail the hour with toasts
and songs, and to depart in all directions on first footing and jollity
Continuing our rapid survey eastward, the next most
promising object on the north is the so-called John Knox�s house, a
charming old place both inside and outside, but your modem antiquary will
scarce allow it the title. He proves that Knox lived, as we have seen, in
Warriston�s Close. The house belonged to a certain John Mossman, an
adherent of Queen Mary, for whom he gave his life on the scaffold. Strange
that such a mystery should hang over the John Knox topography. It has been
denied that Haddington was his birthplace; the exact locus of his
grave is uncertain, but really the house where he lived, whilst he was the
best-known man in Edinburgh to friend and foe alike, how can that be
doubted? Is popular tradition to go for nothing? How curiously little the
men of those days thought about themselves apart from the cause on which
they were engaged, for Knox himself tells us neither where he was born nor
where he lived! It has been conjectured that he spent the last years of
his life here, and here he died. This theory gets us out of a difficulty,
and enables us to retain our belief in Knox�s study, and so forth. The
Free Kirk bought the house; it is a sort of Knox Museum, furnished after
the style of the period, and full of objects of interest. Among them the
rushlight that is older than candles; the tirling pin, which served the
purpose of a knocker; the hour-glass, wherewith he probably forgot to
regulate his sermons; the panelling that is perhaps older than his time.
Across the way, and continuing from the Tron there is
Strichen�s Close, formerly Rosehaugh�s Close, where dwelt the "Bluidy
Advocate Mackenzie, that for his worldly wit and wisdom was to the rest as
a god." Further east is the Blackfriars Wynd, or Street as it is now
called. Here was Cardinal Beaton�s palace. Up this alley, in a glitter of
torch-light and gleaming swords, went Queen Mary from Kirk o� Field to
Holyrood, on the night of 9th February 1567, the night of Darnley�s
murder, the turn of Fortune�s tide with her, while Bothwell's accomplices
were creeping down the adjacent alley of Toddrick�s Wynd to Kirk o� Field
on their murderous work. In South Gray�s or the Mint Close was the old
Scots mint. Tweeddale Court, a little way eastward, was the scene of a
remarkable murder and robbery on 13th November 1806. The victim was
William Begbie, a bank messenger, and the booty was �4000, of which �3000
was afterwards found at no great distance. The murder was done in the
midst of a crowded locality, without the least suspicion, and the murderer
was never discovered, though his identity was conjectured with some
probability. The neighbouring World�s End Close recalls an older and still
more gruesome tragedy. It was once Standsfield�s Close, after Sir James
Standsfield, an Englishman, and proprietor of cloth mills near Haddington.
He was murdered by his son, as noted elsewhere.
Here in the old days, or at any rate nights, we had
been sharply brought up by the Netherbow Port, with which, or with the
keeper thereof, we needs must negotiate ere we passed through. Probably
that is why the close had its odd later name�the World�s End. This quaint
old gate was, as noted, removed in 1764 and save that the street is
narrower you pass on into the Canongate without stay or hindrance.
The Canongate of old was not Edinburgh at all. In
Catholic times it was under the Abbey of Holyrood. Then the Earls of
Roxburgh were its over-lords or "superiors," in the terms of Scot�s law.
In 1636 this superiority was acquired by the Magistrates of Edinburgh, and
now the town spreads all round and far beyond it. Once it was adorned with
three crosses: that of St John, at the head of the present St John Street;
the Market Cross, the shaft of which still remains at the Tolbooth; and
the Girth Cross, 100 feet west from the Abbey Strand. This last had three
steps and a pillar, and marked the western limit of the sanctuary.
The most striking thing to-day in the Canongate is the
Tolbooth, with quaint tower and spire, and all manner and touch of French
detail. It stands midway on the north side, and right and left are places,
the centre of storied tradition. One house has a legend, commemorated by
Scott in the ballad of the "Friar of Orders Grey" in Rokeby, of a
clergyman taken at dead of night to give ghostly comfort to a dying woman.
The worthy divine found the lady as well as could be expected of one just
delivered of a child. He ventured to hint as much, but was sternly
admonished of his task, which he performed with fear and trembling.
Betimes next morning the house flared to the sky, and the clergyman
learned, with sinking heart, that the daughter of the owner had perished
in the flames, and though there was suspicion of a fearful deed, yet the
authorities did not rashly interfere with family matters in those days,
and nothing definite was known or done. And then you pass Morocco Land,
adorned with the figure of a Moor, to which the surrounding grime has
added superfluous blackness. There is a romantic story attached, how in
the depth of the great plague year, 1645, a pirate ship appeared in the
Forth, which turned out to be an Algerine rover, commanded by an old
Edinburgh fugitive boy, one Andrew Gray. He came to destroy, but stayed to
marry the provost daughter, whom he cured of the plague, by love, magic,
or eastern charm; but he had vowed not to enter Edinburgh, and so he dwelt
in Morocco Land.
Also there is Golfer�s Land, won by John Patterson in
James VII.�s time by a truly royal game of golf; and there is the site, at
any rate, of my Lord Seton�s lodgings in the Canongate, which you connect
with Roland Graham and charming Catherine Seton.
Quite near is the White Horse Close. It was well known
as the regular starting-place for a journey to London. From here a band of
Scots nobles were riding forth to join King Charles I. at Berwick when the
populace rose and hindered all except Montrose. This was known as the "Stoppit
Stravaig." A stravaig is an old Scots word for a haphazard march or
excursion. The White Horse Inn, where Dr Johnson put up, was not here but
at St Mary Street, at the Netherbow; the Watergate, it is said, took its
name from the pond attached to the older inn.
Beyond the Watergate, and within the Palace grounds,
was the Royal Tennis Court, long since vanished. Early theatrical
representations were here, and it is possible that Shakespeare himself may
have trod that stage.
In later years, when the Duke of York, afterwards James
VII. and II., came north to set up Court for a little at Holyrood, he
brought with him a troupe of
players. Devout men in the Canongate were mightily incensed, but time has
not preserved their outpourings. In a quite different quarter, among the
actors left in England, there was also considerable irritation, and as
they had Dryden for a mouthpiece their abuse is classic. Glorious John
mocked merrily at those ancient themes�Scots pride and poverty. Actors of
a certain sort have all gone north to Edinburgh
"With bonny blue cap there
they act all night
For Scotch half-crown, in English
threepence hight."
As a Scots
pound only made one English shilling and eightpence, the gibe was near
enough the mark. The poet goes on to hint that supernumeraries and
doorkeepers may very well be pressed into service and palmed off as
competent performers in the ignorant north. But it would never do to give
the natives a sight of gorgeous clothes.
"Laced linen there would be a
dangerous thing;
It might perhaps a new rebellion bring,
The Scot who wore it would be chosen King."
Near the Watergate was Luckie
Wood�s, one of those famous old Edinburgh taverns, whose memory lingers in
the verse of Allan Ramsay:-
"She gaed as feat as a new preen,
And kept her housie snod and bien,
Her pewther glanc�d upo� your een
Like siller plate;
She was a sonsie wife and clean,
Without debate."
On the south side there are matters
of equal interest. Huntly House, with its quaint gables and its profusion
of inscriptions, is always for me a lesson on the value of popular
tradition. The street arab here is a bit of an antiquary, though of an
uncritical kind. If you stop to look at a house, he, with a possible tip
in view, is sure to supply you with extraordinary information. "There," I
was once told, "is the Tolbooth" (the Canongate Tolbooth was indicated),
"where Effie Deans was tried for her life, and there is Huntly House,
where Lady Jane Grey lived when she was in Scotland." Lady Jane Grey never
was in Scotland, and the house was not built until after her young head
had fallen on Tower Hill. But the tradition is curiously persistent, and
is supposed to have arisen from some confusion with another Lady Jane.
Effie Dean�s prison was, of course, the vanished Heart of Midlothian.
Queensberry House and Milton House
are fallen on commonplace, not to say sordid days, though they still
impress by their mass. The former was the scene of a peculiarly atrocious
murder by the lunatic heir, whilst most of the family were away at the
Parliament House engaged in the Union negotiations; at least that is the
popular tradition, perhaps it is not true. One can at least hope that the
gruesome details are mythical. Queensberry was on the unpopular side, and
the Edinburgh mob was mad with rage,
both from national and civic patriotism�and
those old Scots were terrible haters, had absolutely no bounds to their
The mention of the Union directs us to the adjacent
spacious and imposing Moray House. In its garden was a summer-house, where
the Treaty of Union was signed, or half signed, for the Commissioners were
rudely disturbed by the mob and driven elsewhere. Here Cromwell lodged,
and here, it has been rumoured, the resolution to execute the King was
made. The balcony in front recalls one of the most dramatic scenes even in
Scots history. Upon the 18th May 1630, Lord Lorne, the son of the Marquis
of Argyll, was wedded to the Earl of Moray�s daughter, and there they
stood after the ceremony when there passed a procession through the
Watergate and up towards the High Street. It was the captive Montrose,
bound on a cart, led by the common hangman, with every circumstance of
ignominy, to his doom. The cart was stopped in front of Moray House and
the mortal enemies confronted one another. Tradition errs, or Montrose
comported himself with patient dignity that made him come off not
second-best from that ordeal. Time soon brought its revenge. The two
Argylls and Warriston, one of the guests, before very many years, trod the
same Via Dolorosa,
suffered at the same place of death.
After this other things seem tame,
but you may remember that Playhouse Close and Old Playhouse Close are
connected with the struggles of the Drama in Scotland. Here on 14th
December 1756, was produced Douglas,
by John Home, minister of Athelstaneford,
and a nice pother the Church made about that now quite neglected piece.
And St John Street cannot pass without a word, for here lived Smollett
some little time in 1766, and here he gained those life-like impressions
of Edinburgh reproduced in The Expedition of Humphrey Clinker. Here
resided James Ballantyne, and here he was wont to give those famous
supper-parties, when he would bring forth and read something that "outdid
the meat, outdid the frolic wine," and that was nothing less than the
choicest portions of a forthcoming Waverley. Finally, on the west
side, and, as far as you can judge, little if at all changed, is the
meeting-place of the Old Canongate Kilwinning Lodge of Freemasons, which
received Burns with open arms and crowned him Poet-Laureate.
When the Court left Scotland in 1603 the decay of the
Canongate began, and after the Union in 1707 this was accelerated, though
till the New Town rose across the valley it had not lost all pretension to
gentility; but now is its Nadir. Gasworks and tanpits touch with acrid
odour the air, already none of the sweetest. Its dingy and noisome closes
are the haunts of "broken men, wasters and somers," as the old Scots Acts
branded the ill-starred in life. The movement towards better things that
is evident in the High Street and round the Castle has not yet reached
here. Are those frowsy jades or bloated hags that hang listlessly around
the close "fits" the rightful successors of the gay and frolicsome ladies,
the subject of many an old song, many a courtly stave, that rings in your
head as you pace the stones?
"As I came down the Canongate
I heard a lassie sing."
But to-day the daughters of music are mute, and again:
"The lasses o� the Canongate,
Oh, they are wondrous nice;
They winna gie a single kiss,
But for a double price."
Time has blunted the point of that hit which remains
obscure. And where, too, has gone the elusive and seductive Bonnie Mally
"And we�re a� gaun east and west,
We�re a� gaun agee,
We�re a� gaun east and west,
Courtin� Mally Lee."
Her very ghost has shivered, and fled those grimy ways.
The most terrible thing in the Canongate are the faces of the women. And
in odd contrast, almost overhead, is the great park and hill and silent
nooks at hand, yet how far removed! And still nearer and closer and on the
same soil is Holyrood. Nature, history, letters, romance are there in the
very grime.

Water Polo Men, Day 4: ITA 11 CHN 3
Italy has booked a quarterfinal appointment with Spain after beating China 11-3 in the qualifiers at Bernat Picornell Pool. It was a vast improvement on the previous meeting of the two at last year's World League when Italy won 10-9 — the smallest winning margin in all eight encounters between each other at major tournaments.
Italy scored twice before Zhang Chufeng (CHN) plastered the ball into the back of the net from two metres. Matteo Aicardi scored the first of two amazing centre-forward, backhand lobs against Weiqing Ge for 3-1.
Maurizio Felugo opened the second-quarter scoring and Feihu Tan replied from centre forward. Felugo added a second and Alex Georgetti sent in a "donut" over the goalkeeper's head for 6-2 by halftime.
Georgetti netted a third at the top of third when his shot was deflected by a defender, catching out Ge. Christian Presciutti repeated the "donut" shot and Valentino Gallo sent in a low lob for 9-2 at the final break.
Aicardi netted his second lob and then Ge had one of those "I-want-to-forget" moments when he used his face instead of his hands to stop a penalty attempt from the world's hardest shooter — Pietro Figlioli (ITA), who has been recorded at 86.7km/h.
Georgetti netted a fourth with a shot cross-cage and China gained a consolation goal when Zhongxing Liang converted a penalty with one second left.
Italy had the form and the skills and will utilise them against Spain with efficiency on Tuesday.
Match 31: 20:10, Quarterfinal Qualification, ITALY 11 CHINA 3
Quarters: 3-1, 3-1, 3-0, 2-1
Referees: Boris Margeta (SLO), Doriel Terpenka (CAN).

ITALY: Stefano Tempesti, Amaurys Perez, Niccolo Gitto, Pietro Figlioli, Alex Georgetti (4), Maurizio Felugo (2), Niccolo Figari, Valentino Gallo (2), Christian Presciutti (1), Deni Fiorentini, Matteo Aicardi (2), Christian Napolitano, Marco Del Lungo. Head Coach: Alessandro Campagna.
CHINA: Weiging Ge, Feihu Tan (1), Zhongxing Liang (1), Bin Jiang, Junliang Guo, Ning Pan, Bin Li, Yang Wang, Junmin Xie, Jian Zhang, Chufeng Zhang (1), Nianxiang Liang, Honghui Wu. Head Coach: Rick Azevedo.
Niccolo Gitto (ITA):
"We know that this match against China has been a preparation game to the next one: Spain. They have played a great match this morning against USA and they are an intensive and tough team. We know from the beginning that Spain is one of the favourites, so we cannot make any mistake. "
Valentino Gallo (ESP):
"This game was hard, China are unpredictable, we wasted a lot of energy but we had a hard defence. The Spanish team is motivated, their supporters are here and they are a strong team."
Maurizio Felugo (ITA):
"Spain is a strong team and is playing at home. We hope everything will be good."
Weiqing Ge (CHN):
"I got smashed in the head by one of the world´s best shooters. During the game my adrenaline meant that this didn't faze me much but now it is starting to hurt! Italy is one of the best teams, we had a lot of problems with defence and we missed more counter-attack goals."
Rick Azevedo (CHN Head Coach):
"We knew Italy was a great team, they are coming from winning the silver medal in London and they have changed only two players. I´m happy, we have played very well during the game, but after halftime we were tired and it´s very difficult to keep the level Italy plays all the time. We need to keep improving, we are a very young team with very little experience, but I´m sure we are going to get better. We´ll be a better team for Rio 2016 (Olympoics)."

QUICK HIT: The Final Four
After all the wrangling about seeding and who got in and/or was left out of the NCAA men's basketball tournament, what we are left with is two #1 seeds, a #2 and a #3. In fact, the "Elite 8″ included nothing lower than a #3 seed. By my humble estimation, that's a pretty good indication that the tournament selection committee got it right. It's enough to make one wonder if something similar could be accomplished in the Bowl Championship Series of collegiate football.

Sun Airway
Philly indie rock outfit the A-Sides died in 2008, just as two of its members were beginning a new project dubbed "Sun Airway." It took two years, but guitarist Jon Barthmus and drummer Patrick Marsceill finally released the group's debut album just last month, on Secretly Canadian offshoot Dead Oceans. The band's sound isn't a stark departure from the rock jams of the A-Sides—Sun Airway has less meandering guitar solos and more meandering synth jams (in the best way possible), and the music is a bit more atmospheric and experimental—less Pavement, more Animal Collective. But easy comparisons belie Sun Airway's ability to combine Philadelphia's "Psychedelphia" history with indie rock sensibilities for beautifully crafted pop songs, uplifting melodies, ethereal vocals and quirky sound collages. -Katherine Silkaitis

Counterfeit Chimeras
With a highlight last month of a whirlwind lecture by Slovenian philosopher-celebrity (if such a thing exists) Slavoj Žižek, the 2010-2011 Penn Humanities Forum continues to explore questions of virtuality. Through April 2011, many reputable critical theorists and humanities scholars will explore dystopian and utopian manifestations and potentialities of new media and digital technologies through a series of free lectures. Tonight, director of Northwestern University's Program in the Study of the Imagination Claudia Swan is delivering a presentation titled "Counterfeit Chimeras: Early Modern Theories of the Imagination and the Work of Art." Through early modern poetry, visual art, demonology and philosophy, Swan investigates the imagination's power to supplement material objects and beings such that these non-existent correspondents take on a life of their own. Preregistration is required. -Elliott Sharp

Philly-based Keith DeStefano is a late musical bloomer—he attended UArts to study painting—but the bassist/composer has made up for lost time with his enigmatic octet Puzzlebox. The group is Mingus-like in its swinging abandon and its aura of bluesy romance, not to mention its compositional seriousness. Fragments of baritone sax, trombone and flute leap out from an appealing tangle of reeds and brass. DeStefano's ear leads him to longish pieces (six to 11 minutes or so) that are nonetheless tightly conceived, never overcooked. It's all there on Puzzlebox's two discs to date, Just When I Thought and this year's sleeper gem A Place to Be, featuring the brightly promising Philadelphians Maxfield Gast (saxophones), Larry Toft (trombone) and more. -David R.

Hazelle Goodman
It's official: America needs a padded cell. We went from calling Obama the Messiah to labeling him the Antichrist in the blink of a batty eye, and 40 percent of Delaware voters opted for someone who at one point thought she was a witch. Crazy times call for a crazy comedian, and luckily Trinidad has sent us Hazelle Goodman, a Renaissance woman with an artistic history of mental illness: Her self-titled (narcissistic, indeed!) HBO special was critically acclaimed, and she played a rivetingly unwrapped character in the TV's Homicide. Hazelle turns up the crazy for the Philly premiere of her one-woman show, a hilarious, schizophrenic take on today's hottest issues. From Jerrie Curl Ann, who politically protests from the toilet bowl, to a pro-Palin motivational speaker, Hazelle's masterful display of multiple personalities is character change we can believe in. -Gerry Christopher Johnson

We don't know about you, but we're kind of sick of rock bands that don't really look like rock bands. No such beef with Earl Greyhound, whose three members include lank-haired, skinny axe-man Matt Whyte, fabulously Afro'd bassist Kamara Thomas and monolithic drummer Rice Sheridan. The music, too, is all 1970s throwback, with howled-out vocals, pummeling drums and the kind of annihilating guitar mayhem last spotted on the Physical Graffiti tour. The band's website has a video of Whyte doing Zeppelin covers with Blues Traveler's John Popper, but really, why bother when you've written "S.O.S.," the best post-Zeppelin Zeppelin song ever? -Jennifer Kelly

Wave Currents
Sounds appear and reappear in composer Olivia Block's experimental soundscapes like wild animals darting through the forest. Her pieces—populated by inhuman crackles, purring electronic oscillations and strains of low, woody winds—are perfect fuel for the imagination, ripe with implication while allowing for conceptual freedom. That's why her collaboration with visual artists Sandra Gibson and Luis Recoder is so intriguing: This duo of abstract filmmakers creates "live cinema"– shapes, rays and waves of light created in real time–with projectors and other mechanical devices. Wave Currents will transform the Ibrahim Theater into a sort of sensory stimulation tank, an opportunity to immerse oneself in abstract light and sound (and stave off Winter Hibernation Mode for at least a few weeks). -A.J.

Bonerama's four-trombone front line is capable of blowing out the nastiest vintage funk and modern masterpieces by Hendrix and the Zep. The N'Awlins ensemble—back in the day, they started out as a spin-off of Harry Connick Jr.'s band—is known for drilling deep brassy funk into a garage-rock sensibility that would do Little Steven proud. They're changing up special guests throughout the tour, and Philly gets Kyle Hollingsworth of String Cheese Incident. We also get Bethlehem-bred all-star guitarist Steve Kimock, known for his work both in the Steve Kimock Band and taking a spin with every Grateful Dead-related band catering to the unwashed masses. All in all, it sounds like a deep-down dirty-good time. -Tara Murtha

If you've heard of the famously extravagant Atlanta hair shows, you probably have an idea of what to expect from HopeCuts' Annual Master Hair Stylist Competition. It began four years ago as a new segment of City of Hope's HairBall, the East Coast's largest annual hair-design competition. The fourth installment boasts a fabulously bizarre theme: cartoon kitties with luxurious locks. On this night, Philadelphia's top hairstylists will each be assigned a model and must transform the model's hair to win awards and prizes in categories like Best Cut, Stylist, Color and Best in Show. City of Hope's Harry Giordano will host the competition, which includes a night of celebrity impersonators, cocktails, music and dancing. The best part: All proceeds go to City of Hope's medical research for cancer and HIV/AIDS. -Maryline Dossou

|Producer, publisher

Scott Mitchell Rosenberg (born 1963)[1] is a film, television producer, comic book publisher, and the chairman of Platinum Studios, an entertainment company that controls a large independent library of comic book characters and adapts them for film, television and other media. He is also the former founder and president of Malibu Comics, and is a former senior executive vice president for Marvel Comics.[2]
Early career[edit]
Rosenberg began his career in the comic book industry at age 13 when he started a mail order company.[3] Rosenberg graduated from the University of Denver[1] in 1985 with a business degree.[citation needed]
Sunrise Distribution and Malibu Comics[edit]
In the mid-1980s, Rosenberg founded the small Commerce, California-based comics distributor Sunrise Distribution. Rosenberg's experience running Sunrise showed him that the new way comics were being distributed created openings for new, smaller publishers. He also recognized that the advent of the Macintosh computer and desktop publishing software allowed small companies to look bigger.[4]
In 1986, Rosenberg financed Malibu Comics; and in 1987, he also pumped money into a number of other independent publishers, including Eternity Comics, Aircel Comics, and Adventure Comics.[5]
Malibu's first launch, Ex-Mutants, as Rosenberg once said in an interview, "turned out to be a hit" and "all on a $400 marketing budget."[2] During his time at Malibu, Rosenberg led comic spin-offs into toys, television, and feature films, including the billion-dollar film and television franchise Men in Black,[3] based on the Marvel/Malibu comic The Men in Black by Lowell Cunningham.
Rosenberg's experience with Sunrise, however, was not as fortuitous, as the distributor began to suffer cash flow issues in 1987,[6] and abruptly folded in 1988[7] during the infamous "black-and-white implosion." Sunrise's disappearance from the scene left a number of small publishers without the cash flow to continue, and they too went out of business.[8]
Malibu survived, however, and Rosenberg brokered a deal in 1992, in which seven top-selling artists defected from Marvel Comics to form Image Comics. Rosenberg signed the artists to a label deal which made Malibu the publisher of record for the first comics from Image, giving the upstart creator-run publisher access to the distribution channels.[9][10] This subsequently led to Malibu breaking all sales records for independent comics,[citation needed] as in 1992 Malibu grabbed almost 10% of the American comics market share,[11] temporarily moving ahead of industry giant DC Comics.[12] By the beginning of 1993, however, Image's financial situation was secure enough to publish its titles independently, and it left Malibu.[13]
During this period, Rosenberg also worked with Adobe Photoshop software to develop the then-leading standard for the computer coloring of comic books.[citation needed]
Rosenberg sold Malibu to Marvel Comics in 1994.[3][14][15] As part of the deal, Rosenberg was given the title senior executive vice president of Marvel.[16]
Platinum Studios[edit]
Rosenberg left Marvel in January 1997, and co-founded Platinum Studios with European rights agent Ervin Rustemagić.[16] Platinum's "Macroverse Bible," a slate of comic characters acquired by Rosenberg, included titles such as Cowboys & Aliens,[3] Dylan Dog, and Jeremiah (the latter two titles having been acquired by Rustemagić).[16] Rustemagić left Platinum Studios in 2000.[citation needed] The company published a line of comic books in 2007–2008, and has sold film and television rights for a number of its titles (very few of which have actually been produced).
Platinum Studios posted net losses of $4.3 million in 2006 and $5.1 million in 2007.[17] In 2012, the company was de-listed by the Securities and Exchange Commission and placed on its "Pink Sheets LLC" list. Several high-profile lawsuits were filed against Rosenberg personally for accusations ranging from embezzlement to misappropriations of company funds.[8]
In January 2013, in a public struggle between Rosenberg and Platinum president Chris Beall, Rosenberg was accused of transferring company intellectual property from Platinum into a series of shell companies.[18]
In early 2013, Platinum Studios itself seemed to consist only of Rosenberg, running what was left of the company out of his apartment.[8] In 2014, 27 million shares of Platinum were acquired by KCG Holdings.[19]
Personal life[edit]
Married since 1992,[citation needed] Rosenberg lives in California with his wife and his two daughters, Karlee and Kendall.[citation needed] In September[year needed] he and his wife divorced.

A pair of famille verte foo dogs made in the late 19th Century (1890's) marked "China". They are each a little over 10 inches tall, the base is almost 3 l/2 inches by 2 l/2 inches. The colors are green, yellow and a sort of aubergine. Please see section where I describe areas that the artist choose not to paint and left unglazed and unpainted.
There are no chips, cracks or repairs.
Please note: 1) The female foo dog (the one with the baby has two areas which were not painted and left unglazed. One is under her belly and one is next to her right back paw. These are not glazed that are missing, they were not painted and left unglazed. Again please see photos. I have included photos from all angles so you can examine the foo dogs as the photos are part of the description. 2) The male foo dog has two areas that were also left unglazed and unpainted - one is behind his right front paw and the other is the on the backside of the globe (the globe is under his front right paw). Interesting to note the top of the base that the foo dogs are sitting on are also left unpainted and unglazed so this was part of the making of these pieces and the artist choose to paint them this way.

San Francisco parish hosts drag show
Catholic World News - April 19, 2012
A San Francisco parish with a long record of gay activism sponsored a drag show on April 14, the California Catholic Daily reports.
Most Holy Redeemer Church played host to the 3rd Annual Miss Castro Country Clun Pageant, which featured transvestites and attracted homosexual activists. The parish has a history of hosting events for homosexual groups. In its most recent clash with Church authorities, Archbishop George Niederauer asked the parish to cancel scheduled appearances by gay-rights activists as speakers, including a retired Episcopalian prelate, in an Advent Vespers series last December.

Dartmoor Zoo takes delivery of three zebras
Posted: January 29, 2013|
PEDESTRIANS should feel safer crossing the threshold of Dartmoor Zoological Park as they welcome three zebras.
Owner Ben Mee has overseen the arrival of the African zebras, who will be living in a special wooden enclosure built after Tesco offered the funds.
The zebras – Zac, Zebedee and Spot – are among a number of new arrivals at the Sparkwell zoo.
Last month The Herald reported how three wolves were in quarantine at the site awaiting their move into a newly designed enclosure.
The new zebras will be on display in the fields in front of the restaurant.

• Results | Flax Interview
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Success for combined events athletes is often measured by the number of personal-best marks they achieve in the individual disciplines that make up their competitions.By any measure, Jessica Flax was a success Saturday.The Wisconsin senior opened her day at the 2013 NCAA Indoor Championships with a career-best run in the 60 hurdles, but what left a lasting impression was how she closed out her time in the cardinal and white with the best finish of her career.Flax put the wraps on her run as a Badger by finishing eighth in the pentathlon to secure the third All-America honor of her career -- and her first indoors – behind a lifetime-best score of 4,112 points."I'm happy," Flax said. "I'm sad that it's over, but my time has come and my work is done."I'm glad the way I left it."She led a 1-2 punch for the Badgers in the event, with teammate Deanna Latham finishing 11th. The sophomore scored a career-best 4,066 points.
Sophomore Kelsey Card rounded out UW's final day of competition with a 13th-place finish in the shot put, throwing 53 feet, 2 1/4 inches.For Flax, success came despite the fact that she would much rather be outdoors competing in the seven-event heptathlon that plays more into her strengths as an athlete."I hate indoors," Flax said. "I shouldn't say I hate it, because this is my sport and what I choose to do, but it's definitely one of my struggles."Indoors is not Jessica Flax, because I feel like I have limited opportunities, but this is the best I can do and I got eighth, so I can't complain."The competition opened well for the Badgers, with Latham running out to second place in the standings after one event thanks to her school-record run of 8.34 seconds in the 60 hurdles.Flax also sprinted to her best-ever run over the barriers in 8.46.A weight was lifted once Flax cleared her opening height of 5 feet, 1/2 inch in the high jump. Last year, Flax failed to clear a bar during her NCAA indoor debut and was relegated to a 16th-place finish.This time around, she and Latham both cleared 5-4 1/2 to keep their competitions moving along.A strong thrower, Flax had the third-best mark in the shot put at 41-0 1/4 to buoy her standing, while Latham threw 37-4.Flax's move up the standings continued when she leapt to an indoor personal-best mark of 18-6 1/2 in the long jump.Latham came back strong and finished just off her career best by leaping 19-6 3/4.The pair closed things out with strong runs that each fell about a second short of the athletes' lifetime bests in the 800 meters. Flax ran 2:16.15, with Latham clocking in at 2:22.77.Even though her collegiate eligibility has been exhausted, Flax is primed for the move outdoors to the heptathlon, an event for which she is well-suited with her talent in the throwing events. Last year, she was fourth in her final NCAA outdoor championships competed at the 2012 USA Olympic Trials.Flax plans to continue training in Madison for this summer's 2013 USA Outdoor Championships while serving as a volunteer coach for the Badgers.That means Flax won't be leaving fellow senior Dorcas Akinniyi, who has one season of outdoor eligibility remaining, just yet. Together, the pair jump-started UW's multi-events success and have combined for seven Big Ten championships and nine All-America performances.Now, after five years, the duo is in the process of passing the baton to a new generation."I feel like Dorcas and I left a good path for the girls to come through and dominate, reach NCAAs, and I don't know what else they're going to do," she said. "We feel like we brought them up, and they're strong."

Cloudera Named Among Bay Area's "Best Places to Work"
Honored as a Top Employer by the San Francisco Business Times for Its Flexible Work Environment and Innovative Culture
PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 26, 2013) - Cloudera, the category leader that sets the standard for Apache Hadoop in the enterprise, today announced that it has been named one of the Bay Area's "Best Places to Work" by the San Francisco (SF) Business Times, ranking among the area's top 25 of 125 mid-size companies. The designation marks the company's second consecutive win, based on an independent employee survey conducted by the SF Business Times, measuring worker satisfaction across a number of areas, including personal growth, workplace environment and managerial effectiveness.
Founded in 2008, Cloudera pioneered the business case for Apache Hadoop -- an open source framework that enables users to more efficiently store, process and analyze structured and unstructured datasets -- to tackle the formidable problem of exponential data growth. Through Hadoop, the company is helping to drive massive advancements in industries like healthcare, education, oil and gas exploration, advertising, financial services, telecommunications, high technology, government, to name only a few. Cloudera empowers organizations to ask sophisticated questions "at the speed of thought" and get actionable insights from formerly latent data stores for competitive advantage.
Cloudera has been rapidly scaling its workforce over the past year, attracting a world class team across three continents with its flexible and supportive work environment, excellent benefits and the promise of delivering bleeding edge innovation in the white hot Big Data solutions market.
"It's an honor and a pleasure to be recognized again as one of the Bay Area's best places to work," said Mike Olson, Cloudera's CEO. "Given the intense competition for talent in our market, it's crucial that Cloudera appeal to the best and the brightest. This recognition is most of all due to the quality of the people we've brought on. Great people want to work with great people, and we are fortunate to have built a world-class team here to unlock the value of Big Data for the enterprise. Their dedication and contributions across the business are what make Cloudera the company that it is."
The company is currently hiring and looking to fill a number of positions at both its Bay Area locations in Palo Alto and San Francisco, and its offices around the world.

Door Panel
Warning: If you are not competent or do not feel comfortable doing any of these modifications or procedures, then please do not do so. I will not be held responsible for any damages caused by a result of your actions. Now on to the fun stuff!
I had a nasty rattling coming from the door panel whenever I hit a bump in the road. So, I removed the door panel to find the rear pocket had broken loose. The upper attachment strip may have also come loose, or may have been pulled off during the removal I'm not sure. The black plastic piece with 3 clips was also no longer attached in the center.
I sanded all the pieces to remove the old adhesive and cleaned with some acetone. Then roughed up the surface with a razor blade and some very course sandpaper. Then epoxied the pieces back in place one at a time and clamped them overnight to cure.

In this issue, Kate Larson explores color blending by flick carding locks and with this process she created the lovely colorwork knitting on the cover. We have included two articles about recycling yarn from garments; imagine the treasure trove of awkward luxury fibers at local thrift stores begging to be reborn into something you'd actually wear. We also have a number of fascinating articles—including one by Jacey Boggs about the mechanics of spinning on a wheel and how exactly twist is inserted into fiber and another by Peter Teal in defense of using wraps per inch to measure your yarn. The fiber basic focus this issue is on Lincoln Longwool and the issue includes two projects that take advantage of the wool's unique characteristics (a dog leash and market bag). The issue also explores Bedouin spinning in Qatar, creating a fiber map of your area, and much more.

CANTON - Paving work that was expected to start Monday night as part of the $9.55 million Main Street reconstruction project has been pushed back a few days.
Crews are still preparing the street for its base and binder levels, according to Thomas A. Maroun Jr., state Department of Transportation project manager.
Were doing the fine grading. At the very latest, the paving will start by next Monday, Mr. Maroun said. Well start at the intersection of Riverside Drive.
Using high-powered lighting, crews from Luck Bros. Inc., Plattsburgh, are scheduled to pave weekdays between 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. Flaggers will control traffic through downtown.
Roughly 25 diesel light plants will be set up on both sides of Main Street, Mr. Maroun said.
The work will extend from the intersection of Riverside Drive to Park Place and is expected to finish by Oct. 19, DOT spokesman Michael R. Flick said.
The top paving level will installed in the spring.
The evening work will not interrupt the day-time work from continuing.
There will be a different night crew coming in, Mr. Maroun said.
Granite curbing was installed in September. That work included creating new crosswalks with bump outs that are supposed to make it safer for pedestrians to cross the heavily-traveled Main Street.
The majority of underground work is finished including the installation of new storm drains, water and sewer lines.
The next step is to replace the stairwells and entry ways at several businesses. New sidewalks and then lighting will follow.
The work will proceed as quickly as possible, but you have to bear in mind that concrete work is often labor intensive in terms of prep and the concrete has to cure before moving forward with subsequent work, Mr. Flick said.
Ornamental lighting has been purchased thats similar to the vintage light posts that were removed. The new lighting is expected to be installed in time to decorate with the traditional holiday wreaths.
The tree planting will be done in the spring, Mr. Flick said.

City leaders in Orange City have voted down a controversial idea to change the city's name.
Some on the City Council were hoping to change the city's name to Blue Springs.
That's the name original townspeople chose back in 1876. But the postmaster decided his choice -- Orange City -- would draw more attention. He put Orange City on the paperwork.
Supporters believed naming the city after its most valued asset -- Blue Spring State Park -- will attract more eco-tourists.
But the city council voted against the idea at a meeting Tuesday night.
The name change would have required a vote by residents before it would have become final.
