New Delhi, Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan, who has turned producer with his forthcoming film "Love Aaj Kal", says it was Kareena Kapoor who recommended Imtiaz Ali as director for his first production venture.
Kareena had worked with Ali in the successful romantic comedy "Jab We Met".
"Kareena highly recommended Imtiaz when I decided to produce a film. At that time 'Jab We Met' hadn't released. So I met him… it was the script and the way he narrated it to me that really impressed me and we decided to make 'Love aaj Kal'," Saif told reporters here.
"I love the way Imtiaz works. He is amazing," he added.
Saif was in the capital Thursday with his co-star Deepika Padukone and Ali to promote the film that is scheduled for July 31 release.
The film also stars yesteryear hit couple Neetu Singh and Rishi Kapoor along with Rahul Khanna and focuses on relationships in two different eras, showing that the experience of being in love remains the same.
Asked why he decided to venture into production, the 38-year-old said: "I decided to turn producer because I wanted to own the work that is done. I wanted to be more creatively involved in a project apart from just acting in it and take the responsibility. Basically, after working in the industry for so many years, I wanted growth."
So did he change in anyway after taking this step?
"Yes, I have become more conscious of small things now after becoming a producer – I became more conscious about small details during shootings like whether an artist is coming on time or not, production plans are working in close coordination with other, et al," Saif said.
The actor, who is co-producing the film with Dinesh Vijan under their banner Illuminati Films, says it is an unconventional move and will appeal to viewers.
" 'Love Aaj Kal' will appeal to people since it has got very genuine dialogues. It has a certain newness and boldness in character. It is unconventional, yet very commercial," he said.

McConaughey's clean driveMatthew McConaughey brushes his teeth while he's driving.
The heartthrob actor says he's skilled enough he can steer his car while he's polishing his molars.
He revealed to Heat magazine: "Sometimes I brush while I'm driving down the road.
"Get an electric toothbrush and you can do two things at once."
Earlier this year, it was revealed McConaughey sometimes has to stop eating - because he claims he gets too sexually aroused by the food.
The actor confessed he gets such a thrill out of meals - because taste is his most sensual sense - he chooses to go hungry rather than get turned on.
He admitted: "I think food is really sexy.
"Sometimes, if I taste something I really love, I get such tingles down my spine that I have to stop and take a break."

Coast Guard spokesman Lt. Colin Fogarty says officials determined Tuesday night that other boats can safely navigate the waterway. A queue has cleared, and boats are traveling through at a slower pace.

Published 18/01/2013 12:00
Mr McFaul is not expected to arrive back in Northern Ireland before the weekend.
The 36-year-old, originally from Andersonstown and has dual nationality, was part of a large group of foreign oil workers kidnapped at the BP gas field in the North African country.
The terrorist attack was led by Islamist militants in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
The married father dramatically escaped the following day amid intense fighting between the kidnappers and Algerian troops.
He told his family he was in one of five jeeps containing hostages and captors, which were on the move when Algerian Special Forces launched a military operation.
It is understood four of the vehicles in the convoy were bombed while the fifth - which was carrying Mr McFaul - crashed.
He managed to escape from it and made it to a safe camp. It also emerged that Semtex explosives had been strapped around his neck.
On Friday a spokesman for the family said he was mentally and physically exhausted after the ordeal but that his mood was bright.
The spokesman said the Belfast man was on a London-bound flight specially chartered by his employer.
He is due to meet officials from the Foreign Office for a full debrief before returning to Belfast, amid UK-wide travel disruption caused by heavy snowfall.
It appears to have been a large, well co-ordinated and heavily armed assault and it is probable that it had been pre-planned.
David Cameron
In the House of Commons on Friday morning, Prime Minister David Cameron confirmed the government's priority was "the safety of British nationals involved, the repatriation of those killed, and the evacuation of the wounded and freed hostages."
Several British workers remain at risk, he said - but the precise number of hostages and the extent of casualties still remained unclear on Friday.
Mr Cameron confirmed that British officials were not told ahead of time about the military intervention planned by the Algerian Government.
He made it clear that he would have preferred to be informed ahead of proceedings, but the Algerians had to act "immediately" due to the threat posed to the hostages' lives.
He said hostages from eight countries had been kidnapped - including an unknown number of Algerians.
The attack started when two buses en route to the In Amenas airfield were attacked by Islamist terrorists killing two people - one of whom was British - before further attacks on the residential compound and the gas facility, the Prime Minister told MPs.
The dead Briton's family were informed on Wednesday, he added.
Situated close to the border with Libya, the gas field is in the middle of the Sahara desert and is one of the most remote locations in the world.
An Islamic group claimed the operation was in retaliation for the French military intervention against al Qaida rebels in neighbouring Mali.
On Thursday, Mr McFaul's mother Marie told UTV they were simply "thrilled to bits" to find out he had survived the terrorist attack.
"I'm sorry for the other people that are still there, but we're very happy - over the moon," she said.
His tearful son Dylan added that he couldn't wait for his dad to now return home.
"I'll never let him go back there," the 13-year-old said, adding that as soon as he sees him he'll just "give him a big hug and never let go".

After nearly 44 years of careful consideration and study, I have compiled this brief manifesto for success. We all define success in different ways. I don't care what motivates you, if you do all of these things your way, you will be a successful person. You will live long. You will prosper.
Be enthusiastic. Be a complete and total spaz. It's infectious and more impressive to other people than confidence. Think Roberto Benigni's chair jumping scene at the 71st Annual Oscars. See it here.
Be weird. If you haven't read Seth Godin's new book, I highly recommend it: "We Are All Weird." We are in the middle of a social revolution that has been spawned by technology and historically unparalleled prosperity. Conformity is no longer a good plan for long term success. Your strength is in your individuality. Embrace your inner weird.
Hire weird people. Find people who innovate and give them the freedom to explore and express their ideas in a non-judgmental environment. Here's a hint on how to find these people: Everyone is weird. The secret? Hire the right weird person for the job/position you have available and let them be weird.
Work out. According to Richard Branson, this one activity alone will net you 3 to 4 hours of productivity per day. I never said world domination would be easy.
Say 'Thank you' and 'I'm sorry.' The trick is to say it only when you really mean it. People can tell when you don't. Encourage those around you to do the same.
Take shortcuts. But only take them if they do not compromise quality or service. Another good read here is Tim Ferriss' book: "The 4 Hour Work Week." Design systems and implement them but encourage and accept criticism for these systems from others. If they are true innovators, they will likely come up with an even better system.
Fire people. Your company is a money making machine. Each employee is a part of that machine. Take the weird people you hired and install them in appropriate positions within your machine. If a part is broken or doesn't fit, replace it. Sorry to sound cold, but if one of your weirdos is not a good fit, you are not doing yourself or your company any favors by keeping them around. In the end you are doing them a favor too.
Listen with your eyes. Study body language and facial expressions. You will learn more from non-verbal cues than you ever will from the spoken word.

Sekoff said that Huffington Post was interested in doing both long-form news and the shorter ones such as 10,000-word pieces to 140-character news and videos with length of 15 seconds to even 12 hours.
"There is demand for both formats and we want to do both to cater to the demand of the consumer," he said.
Asked whether Huffington Post would always be online, CEO Jimmy Maymann said it was difficult to think why it would ever want to get into print media as it always wanted to be online and that was its basic idea.
On whether it would always remain free, he said eventually there might be some products that it might charge for, but there were no such plans as of now, because the focus was more on building a global business to get a global scale.
"I cannot see that in the next three years or so we will build a product that is so sophisticated that audience would like to pay for.
"Our model is working very well right now and we are very happy with this model and probably we can even make more money by putting more people on our platform. So, right now we do not have any plans to charge for news. Probably the entire industry would also need an entirely new model to start charging for news," Maymann said.

Players from the last six decades will be on hand for Tulane baseball's Alumni Day
Feb. 7, 2014
NEW ORLEANS - On Saturday, former Tulane baseball players who once donned the Olive and Blue at some point over the last six decades will appear at Greer Field at Turchin Stadium once again for Alumni Day.
Saturday will be a day full of activities, as an Old Timers Game with rosters comprised of players from 1993 and before will square off against one another. Following that contest, the 2014 roster will play a group of players who have been on previous rosters under Tulane baseball head coach Rick Jones. That contest will begin at 2:00pm CT.
The gates open at 10:00am CT. The entire group of former players will be introduced by the Voice of the Green Wave, Todd Graffagnini, at 1:30pm CT.
Admission for the festivities is free. Concessions will be sold in Greer Field at Turchin Stadium.
"We haven't had an alumni game in four or five years, so to have something like this again is something I am really excited about," said Jones, who is entering his 21st season as the skipper of the Green Wave. "We have a lot of former great players who have had such an impact on this program and my career. This is a weekend that I am really excited about."
Over 70 former players have already RSVP'd for the event, and many more are expected to attend. Former Green Wave players who have spent time in the Major Leagues who are attending will be Michael Aubrey, Brian Bogusevic, Brad Emaus, Brandon Gomes, Tommy Manzella, Kevin Mmahat, Josh Prince and Mike Romano.
In addition to those who spent some time at the top level of baseball, a slew of former All-Americans, All-Conference players, minor leaguers and draft picks will attend Saturday's festivities. Those who have RSVP'd are listed alphabetically: Drew Allain, Clint Allen, Matthew Barket, R.J. Barrios, Nick Boullosa, Brian Bormaster, Nathan Bosio, Ronnie Brown, Bill Bubrig, Garrett Cannizaro, Rick Chanove, Peter Connick, Darrin Dares, Greg Dini, Bobby Duhon, Jared Dyer, Mike Escudier, Cat Everett, Ricky Fairchild, Bruce Feingerts, Glen Fourmaux, Jonathan Garrett, Matthew Goebel, Keith Graffagnini, Kyle Graffagnini, Grayden Griener, Tim Guidry, Joe Holland, Sam Honeck, Brian Hughes, Michael Johns, Bill Kampen, Jonny Kaplan, Eric Lane, Cary Livingston, John Livingstone, Matthew Mann, Blake Martensen, James McGill, Karl Mundt, David Napoli, Tucker Oakley, Nick Pepitone, Sean Potkay, Scott Powell, Billy Rapp, Rustin Rebowe, Marc Robert III, Andrew Robinson, Carlos Rodriguez, Taylor Rogers, Brad Rosenblat, John Ryan, Steve Rowley, Anthony Scelfo, Jeremy Schaffer, Scott Sidwell, David Stewart, Desi Vega, Dan Wagner, Will Walter, Robert Whitman Jr., Robbie Whitman and Anthony Williams.
Two former Tulane coaches in Joe Brockhoff and Milt Retif will be joined in the dugout by former player Bill Babin in coaching the team that will face the current squad of Green Wave players.
In one week, the regular season will open at Greer Field at Turchin Stadium when the Green Wave welcome Arkansas-Pine Bluff for a four-game weekend series, including a Saturday doubleheader.
On opening night, Friday, Feb. 14, fans can come listen to the Pocket Aces Brass Band in front in between Greer Field at Turchin Stadium and the Wilson Center from 4-6pm CT before heading into the park for the first game of the 2014 campaign. Food and beverages will be available.
Season ticket and single game tickets for the 2014 Tulane baseball season are now on sale. Interested parties can call 504-861-WAVE (9283) for more information on tickets, or they may visit the James W. Wilson, Jr. Center's first floor ticket office.
Fans can follow the Tulane baseball program on Twitter (@GreenWaveBSB) or on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/GreenWaveBaseball.

Part 2 of the Interview with Tom Araya and Joe on Artistdirect
As far as metal is concerned, the show to see this fall is Slayer and Gojira's current jaunt.
You've got thrash's fiercest band in history headlining, and the most exciting metal outfit in the past decade playing direct support. The two Los Angeles show were purely powerful and potently perfect as Slayer demolished the Palladium yet again, and Gojira opened up the gateway into their heavy and hypnotic domain. All of the other gigs have been indisputably the same as the bands continue to crisscross the country delivering the ultimate sonic catharsis…
In the second installment of ARTISTdirect.com editor-in-chief Rick Florino's exclusive interview between Tom Araya of Slayer and Joe Duplantier of Gojira, these two gentlemen discuss the tour, their families, their favorite Slayer albums, and so much more.
Was the last tour you two embarked on a catalyst for this one?
Tom Araya: Yeah! I'll show up an hour-and-a-half before show time, if I can. Then, I leave soon afterwards. The last time we toured, we didn't hear any complaints from anybody about anything. It was a great tour. Everything ran smoothly. I heard nothing but positive things about you guys. You were great to tour with.
Joe Duplantier: You have an amazing crew. I just want to say that. That's probably one big reason why everything went smoothly. When you have the proper crew, they respect the support bands, and they make everything easier. If we have the smallest problem, we just talk to one of them, and it's fixed right away. Everyone is helping one another. You know it of course, but you have a great crew. It helps.
Interview Gojira - Sud Ouest (French)
Né en 1996 à Ondres, dans les Landes, le groupe des frères Duplantier a atteint une renommée internationale qui l'emmène pour un mois de tournée aux Etats-Unis, de Las Vegas à Boston, en compagnie des mythiques Slayer.
Qui aurait pu imaginer qu'un petit groupe du sud des Landes, deviendrait un jour le plus international des groupes de rock en France ? Après dix-huit ans d'existence, Gojira, né à Ondres (40) d'une fratrie (Joseph et Mario Duplantier) et d'une bande de copains est devenu une pointure de la scène metal internationale. Gojira joue partout dans le monde, avec les plus grands (Metallica pour ne citer qu'eux) et bénéficie d'une aura et d'une respectabilité en acier trempé. Comment peut-on en arriver là ? Éléments de réponse avec Mario Duplantier, 32 ans, le batteur du groupe.
« Sud Ouest Dimanche ». Vous jouez partout dans le monde. Vous avez encore du temps à consacrer à vos terres d'origines, les Landes et le Pays Basque ?
Mario Duplantier. On ne vit pas tous à Ondres, mais le QG du groupe reste à Ondres, dans les Landes. On s'y retrouve pour préparer les tournées et ensuite on part sur la route. Mon frère a un appartement à New York où il passe du temps. C'est une ville qui l'inspire énormément. Et puis, le statut et l'emploi du temps du groupe le permettent. Nous sommes devenus un groupe international et nous tournons autant aux États-Unis qu'en Europe. Prendre un avion pour sept ou dix heures, maintenant c'est devenu la routine. Lorsque l'on rentre, le temps consacré à nos familles et à nos vies personnelles est devenu de plus en plus important.
Following a summer of storming through Europe, South America and Mexico while topping the bills at solo shows and major festivals, Slayer will headline its first North American tour in two years. The tour will include the band's previously announced return to New York's Theatre at Madison Square Garden and the Hollywood Palladium, venues the band hasn't performed at in 25 years. Gojira and 4ARM support on all dates.
Tickets for all dates on Slayer's U.S. tour, go on sale beginning this Friday, September 6. Log onto www.slayer.net for complete on-sale dates and ticketing information.

A message from Mario in the clip below:
All the tour dates : GO TO THE TOUR SECTION
Interview on The Village Voice
No one sounds like French metal band Gojira--or, rather, they sound like no one else. They bear the European death metal hallmarks of speed and rhythmic trickiness, but instead of reveling in the blood, guts, nihilism, etc., that characterize the lyrics of their peers, Gojira concern themselves with saving the whales. (Yes, literally.) In the brootalworld of heavy metal, it's, well, weird.
Anchored by brothers Joe and Mario Duplantier (on guitar and drums, respectively), the four-piece band retain their original lineup now 11 years since their debut. (No drama? Also kind of weird.) We spoke to Joe about the odd upbringing that continues to influence his music--and about how to explain metal to your grandmother.

You've said you and Mario grew up in an old house that was considered kind of strange in your town. Could you talk about that a little more?
It's pretty striking when you go in this family house where we grew up. It's not like normal houses. It's very raw. It's open to the wind. There's dust and leaves everywhere, but it doesn't matter. It's an old house...It was very free. That was a big influence on us, I think.
Our parents were artists, and my mother was born in the states, so she had a different attitude and way of expressing herself. She was...louder than other moms. [Laughs] You know how in France, people talk super quiet. So, we had this American mom, and our dad is a painter, and they're not the kind that teach you how to be polite and to live properly. Our house was a happy mess, without heat. Just with fire in the winter. It was tough, but a very happy childhood. I couldn't understand sometimes other kids because they were very different. They would play rugby and do stuff that was really common in our area when we were doing theatre, music, and stuff like that in the house. The house was also far away from the village, and it was surrounded by trees, with forest animals. For me, it's kind of normal to be not like everybody else.
It's interesting that you grew up feeling different from others, like an outsider, because your music is so unique among heavy music. People call it death metal, but you don't sing about gory, bloody things. You have a more uplifting message. How would you classify your own music? What kind of metal would you call it?
It's hard for me to classify. I like to say it's music. I know it sounds cliché, but I like to say we're just playing music. But of course it's metal. It comes from the gut, really. We don't have so many influences from other bands. For example, growing up, we were not part of a larger group of several bands. There wasn't really a scene. So, I think that's helped us to be more ourselves, and we were not in competition with another band, for example, trying to go faster than them or heavier. We were really on our own, and I'm really glad because we didn't have too many influences. And concerning the lyrics and the theme, we don't need to exaggerate the difficulties of life and how "gore" it is already. It's enough to talk about your emotions, and it's gore enough. You don't need to add all these clichés, you know, bloody images and stuff like that... READ THE ENTIRE INTERVIEW

Funding opportunities
Our goal is to continue the Type I CIRM-funded Comprehensive Training Program that was established at this institution nearly 3 years ago. Specifically, we want to support 6 graduate students, 6 postdoctoral (Ph.D.) fellows, and 4 clinician-scientists (M.D. and or Ph.D.). We provide a unique training environment for students at all levels who are pursuing careers in regenerative medicine. Specifically, our institution offers a world-class research training experience in the context of an equally prestigious medical school and clinical enterprise. We are also noted for our faculty, a diverse and talented group of individuals—1,500 full-time members who are renowned for their dedication to the training process. Additionally, this institution has a long history of supporting human embryonic stem cell research within a framework of the highest ethical standards of conduct. In this productive research environment, our regenerative medicine institute fosters work toward regenerative medicine therapies. The regenerative medicine institute has 7 pipelines that are designed to promote the development of cell-based therapies for repair/regeneration of cardiovascular, neural, pancreas and liver, hematopoietic, musculoskeletal, epithelial, and reproductive tissues. Each pipeline integrates the research of numerous investigators who are working together to translate basic research discoveries into clinically viable therapies. The pipelines are supported by programs that cut across several disciplines, including Human Embryonic Stem Cells, Cancer, Immunology, Genetics, and Bioengineering. Regenerative medicine institute research is supported by key technology core facilities. Additionally, we were awarded a grant to build and run a CIRM Shared Laboratory and Teaching Facility that will be an important resource for our trainees and a CIRM Major Facilities Award that will allow consolidation and expansion of stem cell-related activities in a new building. With regard to campus-wide events, the regenerative medicine institute sponsors many well-attended series, including regularly scheduled seminars, journal clubs, a young-faculty forum, and an annual retreat. These events take place against a backdrop of stimulating activities with similar formats in other programs that cover cutting-edge research developments in the U.S. and around the world. In this context, CIRM trainees at this university will have several different types of learning experiences that include formal courses in stem cell biology and related topics such as human development and cell biology. Ethical issues will be addressed in a course that is solely devoted to this topic. Trainees will also do research with world-class mentors who focus on transforming basic research discoveries into clinical applications. Thus, this university provides an exceptional and exciting environment for trainees who will be the next generation of leaders in the field of regenerative medicine.
We envision that the citizens of the state of California will benefit in many ways from continuing this institution's Comprehensive Training Program for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows (Ph.D.), and clinician-scientists (M.D. and/or Ph.D.). Collectively, the basic research, translational strategies, and clinical therapies that will emerge from the work of this university's California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM)-funded trainees will be an important stimulus to the state economy, particularly the biotechnology sector and associated medical enterprises. Additionally, specific groups of individuals will directly benefit from work that is focused on cell-based therapies for repairing tissues and organs whose damage leads to common medical conditions, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, Parkinson's disease, paralysis and/or immune dysfunction. On the way to achieving the CIRM's ultimate goals in terms of novel regenerative therapies for patients, we envision that numerous other benefits will emerge. For example, human embryonic stem cell (hESC) systems are powerful tools for unraveling the molecular bases of human development, which remain largely a black box. A fundamental lack of understanding regarding the mechanisms that give rise to the hundreds of cell types that form tissues and organs makes it extremely difficult to discern why these processes sometimes go awry, leading to birth defects and/or setting the stage for many diseases. Additionally, it is likely that novel therapies for other medical conditions will emerge. In this regard, some forms of cancer are now thought to be associated with the proliferation of stem cells that carry mutations in genes that promote their self-renewal rather than differentiation and integration into the compartment that they normally occupy. Other important applications include drug development. For example, hESCs and their differentiated progeny could be used to screen lead compounds for efficacy, safety and/or toxicity. Where will the workforce come from that will enable this revolution in how the medical establishment approaches patient care? Given the fact that hESCs were first described just 10 years ago, this is a very young field that must be rapidly populated with scientists and clinicians who are specially trained in all aspects of regenerative medicine, a new specialty. This necessity makes the funding of CIRM-sponsored training programs especially critical for institutions such as ours that have the ability to make important research discoveries and translate them into clinical therapies. In this regard, our university has a long and distinguished history of training leaders in science and/or medicine who easily traverse the boundaries between academia and industry. Our past successes strongly suggest that our CIRM-funded training programs will be equally successful. Accordingly, we expect that our trainees will become leaders in the field.
This is a competitive renewal application of a Type I training program. Funds to support six graduate students, six postdoctoral fellows and four clinician scientists are requested. The application represents a major effort by the host institution in basic and translation research in the field of stem cells. The training program will include core curriculum, with required and optional courses, laboratory work, seminars, journal clubs, stem cell symposia and scientific retreats.
Reviewers considered the quality and design of the program to be excellent. The scope of the program was judged as suitable for providing the appropriate level of training in stem cell research. One reviewer expressed concern that only one week devoted to a laboratory techniques course on culturing hESC was insufficient to learn the necessary skills required to culture cells that are generally difficult to grow. The one-day workshop on the translational aspects of ES cell research at a local stem cell company was considered as a strength of the program. The quality of the environment, resources and faculty at the host institution was considered to be among the best in the nation. The progress of the ongoing CIRM-funded training program, as judged from the publication record of current trainees, appears to be good.
The review panel found the program director to be exceptionally well qualified to lead the program. However, some concerns were raised about the commitment of only 2% effort by the program director for administering the program. Some of the review panel felt that the program director is over-committed, despite the superb qualifications, and that the program could suffer. The training program director will continue to be assisted by an associate director who is primarily responsible for the training of the clinician scientists. Reviewers found this division of supervisory roles to be fine. The review panel applauded the role of the seven member steering committee to oversee the progress of the training program biannually. The plan for monitoring trainee performance was considered to be thorough and complete.
The review panel appreciated the fact that the host institution is making concerted efforts to increase diversity in the training program. Institutional commitment to the program was also judged to be strong.
Overall reviewers were very enthusiastic about this training program.

According to the Downtown Missoula Association, more than 25 storefront businesses have set up shop in downtown Missoula since the start of last year. Staff attribute that partly to the successful implementation of the city's master plan, by following through with urban renewal projects.
One new business opened on Friday. The owners of "Plonk" already have a successful location in Bozeman, and they decided to bring their business to downtown Missoula. The business offers up wine, food, and cocktails, and the business has hired more than 40 employees so far.
"It feels like we're climbing out of an economic recession in the last few years and I'm a lover of Montana's downtowns, being a Montanan myself," said Plonk co-owner Brett Evje.
Blocks away, staff at Treasure State Donuts continued getting ready for their own opening, which they hope will happen sometime in the first week of April. Staff have been handing out free samples to folks who stop by, and testing out flavors. Treasure State Donuts has hired roughly ten employees so far.
General Manager Stephanie Lubrecht says she and the owners of Bridge Pizza often talked about Missoula's lack of a donut shop.
"Then this location opened up and it seemed like the right timing, so we decided to try and make that a reality," said Lubrecht.

Players of the Week
A couple of notes on Minor League Players of the Week, which will be handed out every Monday. P Nick Hernandez was the SAL Pitcher of the Week and 2009 C Travis d'Arnaud took the Player of the Week award in the Florida State League with Dunedin.
Nick Hernandez…The left-hander is 2-0, 1.29 to start the season. He threw 8 shutout innings (3 hits, 0 walks) on Sunday afternoon against Greensboro. That followed an outing Tuesday in Hagerstown where he gave up just one run over seven innings. Said his manager, Mark Parent after the game Sunday: "The bottom line was anything Nick Hernandez could have done well today he did. He mixed it up, pitched in, pitched out, changed speeds."
Travis d'Arnaud…(from MiLB.com)…Acquired by the Blue Jays from the Phillies in the offseason Roy Halladay blockbuster trade, former first-rounder Travis d'Arnaud appears to be in a rush to show his new organization what he's made of. He's begun the season with a nine-game hitting streak, and he belted a home run on Opening Day. The catcher had three or more hits in three different games between Monday and Friday, ending that run with another homer in Friday's game. On Saturday, he was 2-for-5 with a double, two RBIs and a run scored.
Also of note, Phillies prospect John Mayberry Jr. was International League Player of the Week with Lehigh Valley.

BB10: Keesha Nominates Jesse and Angie for Eviction!
July 27, 2008 06:51 PM by Britteny Elrick
On tonight's episode of Big Brother, Keesha shocks the entirehouse when she decides to go against the original plan to put upMemphis and nominates Jesse and Angie for eviction…
First, the houseguests reminisce about Steven's eviction and howconfused they were with his last words, "suck it b*tches." Keesha and Angie talk about how much they miss him and what a hard decision it was. Dan thanks everyone for keeping him in the house.
Renny and Libra talk about how excited they is that Keesha won HOH. Michelle says that her alliance has gotten out Steven and Brian, and now they need Keesha to do the rest of their dirty work. Dan says he intentionally threw the HOH competition. Keesha says she is not forgetting who was not kissing her butt before she had the magic key. Libra doesn't understand why Keesha isn't sure who to nominate. Libra tells her she has her back next week and Keesha says, "Well, I hope so." Jesse and Memphis say that they just need to get her to trust them.
Keesha takes everyone up to see her HOH room. There are pictures of her parents and her dog Gizmo. She reads a letter from her parents and the houseguests leave her alone, except Renny. Keesha tears up over the words her parents wrote and Renny consoles her.
Then the talk turns to strategy. Keesha tells Renny that she trusted her and Steven only. They talk about how Libra will stab her in the back if she gets the chance. April knocks on the door and Renny is skeptical. Keesha says that she will not nominate who the house wants her to. Then Libra and Ollie come in. Keesha runs the idea behind them of putting up Angie. Her reasoning behind the idea is that Angie left Steven out to dry, even though she was his friend. They all agree and mention putting up Memphis against her so that would be one less vote in her favor.
April, Libra, and Keesha talk to Memphis and she tells him that she is thinking of putting Angie up. Memphis tells them she is not after them, but Keesha says she knows otherwise. He says Angie would have nominated Dan and Jerry. Angie and Renny try to come in but Keesha says to come back later. Angie tells Jesse that Keesha is not strong enough to stand up to the rest of the girls. She knows something is up and that's why they didn't let her in the room. Keesha tells Memphis not to talk to anyone about the conversation.
Memphis goes back to Jesse and tells him that she's thinking about putting up Angie. He tells him to try to talk to Keesha. Meanwhile, Dan goes up to the HOH room. Keesha says he is one of the few people she wanted to talk to. Dan admits he doesn't have an alliance. Keesha tells him that the plan was to nominate him, but she doesn't want to do that. She says that if she saves him, she expects him to save her in the future. Dan tells her that he hasn't given his word to anyone since Steven. Keesha admires that.
Keesha talks to Libra. Libra admits that she doubted her. Keesha says she is hurt, but Libra says it was more about her friendship with Steven than it was about her. Libra is worried this will break up the alliance. Keesha tells her she has to be careful with her mouth.
The Food Competition
They are playing for food for the entire house this week. The houseguests dress up in sixties style clothing and make their way to the backyard. When they get outside, they find two laundry baskets full of socks spinning on top of giant records. The records were divided by a large wall. Two houseguests at a time would stand one of the records and they each had to find the same sock and then hang it up on their side of the wall under one of the food categories. The girls were frustrated that the guys weren't listening very well to them. April in particular was very frustrated with Ollie. They ended up winning: beef, pigs feet [Michelle seemed to be the only one excited about this], chicken, deli meats, apples, bananas, cookies, brownies, beer, juices, raisins, cereals, and pumpernickel.
Ollie and April talk about the books they like. April says her life was changed by a "co-dependency no more" book. Ollie says he likes self-help books, and he feels paranoid that people are always after him. He says he sees "road construction signs" when it comes to relationships. April says there is a difference between a "slow down" sign and a "do not enter" sign. [so much wisdom being exchanged here,]
April goes up to the HOH room and Keesha asks what she should do. She doesn't know who to put against Angie. April suggests Memphis again, but Keesha is very scared to have him against her. They talk about how he has won the car already and that is equivalent to second place. Finally, Jesse and Keesha talk. He asks her what she's thinking. She tells him she's putting up Angie and asks for his vote. Jesse says she isn't coming after her, but Keesha says she knows for a fact that she is. He brings up Libra. They agree that everyone wants Libra out. Jesse says put up Dan and Libra and everyone will vote Libra out. He says she will bury herself and show her true colors.
Angie says she knows she will be put up, but she shouldn't be her main concern. Jesse says he feels safe and thinks she will nominate Dan and Libra. Libra says she is loyal and hopes Keesha won't hold her actions against her. Kesha says the houseguests will be shocked at who she chooses.
The Nomination Ceremony
Keesha gets a little teary eyed and says that the nominees are not her enemies, but it is what she has to do. The first key to come out of the box is Dan, followed by Renny. Then it's April, Memphis, and Ollie. Libra is the next to come out. The last two are Jerry and Michelle. The nominees are Angie and Jesse! Keesha tearfully says that she nominated Angie because she slid through without any flack for the Brian alliance. She nominated Jesse for sending Steven out the door last week.
Dan says it was his "coming out week." Michelle says she opened up a can of worms and now "it's on like donkey kong." Angie says the battles are just beginning.
Stay tuned to see who wins POV this Tuesday!

Roy was born on September 5, 1959, in Charlotte, Michigan to Elam and Shirley Hinckley. Roy served in the United States Navy from 1976 to 1980. In 1979, while stationed in Texas, Roy married the love of his life, Brenda Fox. Two years later, they celebrated the birth of their daughter Amanda Hinckley Giarratano.
After giving his heart to the Lord in 1994, Roy dedicated the rest of his life to sharing the love of God with all he came in contact with. Roy's passion was mission work, feeding, clothing and healing hurting people. Roy pastored a church in Gonzales, Texas for six years before moving to Kansas City.
In 2006, shortly after Roy and his wife moved to Kansas City, they welcomed the first of two grandchildren. There are not enough words to describe Roy's love and passion he had for his grandchildren. Living by example, Roy taught all who knew him how to not only live the length of your life but the width as well.
Roy was preceded in death by his father Elam Hinckley. Survivors include wife Brenda Fox Hinckley, daughter and son-in-law Amanda and Nate Giarratano, two grandchildren Elam Douglas Giarratano and Eden Love Giarratano, all of Olathe, Kansas. Roy is also survived by his mother Shirley Hinckley, brothers Dan and Bruce Hinckley, sisters Kathy Aaron, Tina Kellogg and Sue Thornell, all of Michigan. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Roy's family.

text: The unseasonably warm temperatures worked their magic in my garden last week. They made things happen that usually take a little longer. The best surprise was discovering perennials (or biennials) coming up that I thought were annuals. I didn't realize that my parsley, sage (no rosemary) and thyme would come back, but there they were, tiny little fragrant leaves poking through the soil. I was also pleasantly surprised to see my strawberry plant bursting forth.

Tory funding boost ahead of poll (From Lancaster And Morecambe Citizen)

Tory funding boost ahead of poll
3:53pm Wednesday 13th August 2014 in © Press Association 2014
The Conservative Party has moved further ahead of Labour in raising funds to fight the 2015 general election - raking in £7.2 million in the second quarter of the year, almost double the Opposition's total.
But the Tories will be concerned by a nearly threefold leap in the cash being handed to the UK Independence Party, which raised £1.4 million in the period around its success in May's European elections.
That put it ahead of the Liberal Democrats on £1.2 million and the Scottish National Party on £1.1 million.
David Cameron has been under renewed pressure in recent weeks over wealthy donors after the inclusion of two among new appointments to the House of Lords and controversy over funds accepted from Russian oligarchs.
Electoral Commission figures showed that o ne of the biggest individual donations was the £629,570 given to Labour by property magnate Sir David Garrard, while the Tories' largest were two of £500,000 each.
Financier and party co-treasurer Michael Farmer - who was among 12 new Conservative working peers announced last week by the Prime Minister, sparking a renewed cash-for-peerages row - gave £333,500 over the period.
Of Labour's funds, £683,342 came from trade union Unison.
The vast bulk of the Ukip money was an injection of just over £1 million from Highstone Group Ltd, the company belonging to ex-Tory donor Paul Sykes who bankrolled the eurosceptic party's poster campaign.
Labour said the figures showed another £2 million had been raised by the Tories from donors who attended private dinners with David Cameron and other senior ministers - taking the total to £5 million this year.
Shadow cabinet office minister Jonathan Ashworth MP said: "When millions are flowing in from hedge funds and exclusive groups of donors, is it any wonder David Cameron stands up for the privileged few?
"Millionaires and hedge funds have been given a tax cut while hardworking families suffer from a cost-of-living crisis. David Cameron is leading an out-of-touch, hollowed-out party which has no answers to the major challenges our country faces."
The Tories said Labour had now received a total of £34 million from trade unions since Ed Miliband became leader.
Conservative Party chairman Grant Shapps said: " The figures are jaw-dropping. Apparently, it costs £1,000 an hour to hire your very own Labour leader.
"Union bosses like Len McCluskey have siphoned off £34 million from their members' pay-packets, and funnelled it into Labour's election war chest - a truly staggering amount.
"And we all know what payback they want from weak Ed Miliband: more wasteful spending, more taxes, and more debt than our children could ever hope to repay."

In anticipation of the Sundance NEXT Weekend Festival, which arrives, well, this weekend in Los Angeles, Oscilloscope has released the trailer for "12 O'Clock Boys," Lofty Nathan's documentary on Baltimore's infamous urban dirtbike gang, and the young outsider who strives to join its rowdy ranks. Watch below.
This statement from Oscilloscope's Dan Berger should be enough to pique viewers' interest: "It's a portrait of a subculture as much as a window into the state of America, and it's all in the guise of 'The Wire' by way of Cirque du Soleil."
The film screens on August 10 as part of NEXT Weekend, with Oscilloscope eyeing an early 2014 theatrical release. It premiered at SXSW back in March.

Discussing compensation is considered a "concerted activity" and is protected under the NLRA, so rules limiting employees from talking about their pay may violate that law. Find out what the NLRA protects and how you can address this sensitive issue.
Q: Can an employer implement a "no pay discussion" rule in its policy handbook? We do not want employees comparing their pay rates since many factors that employees do not know about go into these decisions. A: A total ban on wage discussions among nonsupervisory employees (i.e., a prohibition that goes beyond limiting the time and place of discussions) is prohibited under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The NLRA is the federal law that gives employees the right to organize into unions and to engage in concerted activities for collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection. It applies to all organizations regardless of size and protects both union and nonunion employees. Since higher wages are a frequent objective of employee organizing activity, a rule prohibiting wage discussions has been interpreted by courts and the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) (the federal agency charged with implementing the NLRA) to be unlawful interference with the right of employees to engage in organizational and concerted activity. (Download a free Solicitation model policy, addressing other NLRA issues and including HR best practices and legal background.) So, for example, in Cintas Corp. v. NLRB, 482 F.3d 463 (D.C. Cir. 2007), the court upheld the NLRB's decision ordering an employer to rescind its policy prohibiting disclosure of "any information concerning the company, its business plans, its partners, new business efforts, customers, accounting and financial matters." The court agreed with the NLRB's determination that employees could reasonably construe the rule's unqualified prohibition of the release of "any information" regarding "its partners" to unlawfully restrict their discussion of wages and other terms and conditions of employment with fellow employees. And, in Citizens Inv. Servs. Corp. v. NLRB, 430 F.3d 1195 (D.C. Cir. 2005), the court enforced the NLRB's ruling that the employer violated the NLRA when it fired an employee because of his protected concerted activity of protesting compensation terms and payments for financial consultants. In addition, the policy does not even have to be in writing to violate the NLRA; it only has to be orally communicated to employees. For example, in NLRB v. Main St. Terrace Care Center, 218 F.3d 531 (6th Cir. 2000), the court upheld the NLRB's ruling that the employer violated the NLRA because its managers verbally instructed employees not to discuss wages. Note that the NLRA's definition of who is an employee protected by the Act does not include supervisors. A supervisor is defined as "any individual having authority, in the interest of the employer, to hire, transfer, suspend, layoff, recall, promote, discharge, assign, reward, or discipline other employees, or responsibility to direct them, or to adjust their grievances, or effectively to recommend such action." In addition, the supervisor must use independent judgment in the exercise of such authority and cannot act in merely a routine or clerical nature. Although supervisory employees are not covered by the NLRA, most HR experts agree that you should not implement or enforce a policy prohibiting the discussion of wages among workers, regardless of supervisory status. There are two reasons for this advice: (1) the lack of trust and secretive atmosphere created runs counter to good employee relations, even if only applied to supervisors; and (2) the policy may be misapplied to nonsupervisory employees in violation of the NLRA. (Download a free Pay Procedures model policy including HR best practices and legal background.) As an alternative to a prohibition, consider adding a policy statement to your handbook that encourages employees to direct questions or concerns about compensation to the human resources department or their department head. Although this policy will not prevent employees from talking about their pay, at a minimum, it may encourage them to bring their concerns to you instead of their coworkers.

Sea Spaghetti, raw (50 g) [Sold out]
Sirova no longer sells sea spaghetti. You can purchase it here, from The Raw Food World, the best and largest supplier of raw foods on the Internet. They also ship to Canada!
Sea spaghetti (Himanthalia elongata) is another seaweed wonder. It grows in the natural seaweed fields of Brittany, and unlike kelp noodles, it actually looks like pasta right out of the water! Sea Spaghetti is dried at low temperature in Brittany, and is guaranteed raw. Upon soaking, sea spaghetti grows in size and becomes soft, just like al dente pasta!
Please note that the nutritional information for sea spaghetti has changed. Here is the new data for a 5 g serving (10 servings per pack) (and if you want the nutrition for a 4 ounce serving, simply multiply the numbers below by 22!):
Protein: 1.5%
Sodium: 7%
Potassium: 13%
Magnesium: 50%
Iodine: 333%
If you've been longing for the long soft strands of grain based pasta and are looking for an easy to digest, nutritious and delicious alternative, you will love sea spaghetti! Kate Magic recommends you "just soak it in the morning & serve it in the evening," and in her book Evie's Kitchen, Shazzie writes: "I (...) love sea spaghetti, which comes in long strands of tagliatelle-style seaweed. After soaking in water for an hour, it makes the base of one of the most satiating raw meals on the planet."
At Sirova, we like to soak an entire package of sea spaghetti in a large covered container and keep it in the fridge, changing the water every couple of days. Then, we just whip up a quick sauce, toss in a few cups of soaked sea spaghetti, and we've got one of the fastest, most nutritious foods possible!
Don't forget to check out our free recipes calling for sea spaghetti, as well as our article on the health benefits and uses of sea spaghetti!

Attracting new viewers the old way
Culture | Return of the game shows, nothing but net for NBA fans, and Enquirer's troubles
As memories of fixing fade, nets repackage game shows
The greatest sham in TV history wasn't pro wrestling, but the big-money quiz shows that won high ratings before they turned out to be rigged. Now NBC and CBS are dusting off two once-tainted games (Twenty One and The $64,000 Question, respectively) for proposed revivals that would bring the isolation booth back into American living rooms. The two shows were similar, with contestants battling one another answering questions. Sticking contestants in the isolation booth told viewers that the pressure was on. Actually, the fix was on. Producers knew their shows had high ratings and that to stay on top they needed charismatic champions who would keep people tuning in-some contestants were given answers beforehand. But viewers did not realize the shows, like wrestling, were shows rather than competitions. Maybe Americans had more respect for brains than brawn. The rigging of Twenty One was described in the 1994 Robert Redford movie Quiz Show. The show's producers kept dashing young star Charles Van Doren on top. When exposed, he told a congressional committee: "I have flown too high on borrowed wings." Today's network execs know the quiz-show history, but "frankly the notoriousness made it more interesting to me," said NBC senior vice president Rick Ludwin. Little is known about the revivals, except that the original hosts, Jack Barry and Hal March, are long gone. The new Twenty One and The $64,000 Question probably won't be rigged, but the formats will be similar. So why are the networks bringing back something that was a blight on the industry? Because times have changed. Fewer people have first-hand memories of these shows and the networks need cheap hits, especially with the smash success of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? on ABC. People like excitement and the networks are turning to old formulas to help themselves in an era of declining audiences. A hoops fan's dream
Ready for 24-hour basketball? The NBA is preparing a cable channel to start in November, in time for the new season. Named NBA.com TV, it will be nothing but net. This never-ending collage of basketball will show scores, highlights, and vintage games. It's the first time a league has started its own network, giving itself access to the revenue stream it usually licenses to others. The first move in this direction came when Britain's soccer megapower Manchester United launched a channel dedicated to itself, MUTV. Note that ".com" in "NBA.com TV." This new channel will also be the most blatant crossover between online and televised features. They will serve as ancillaries to game broadcasts, which belong to NBC, TNT, and other outlets right now. The channel will allow the NBA to mine its footage resources and archives to give fans a nonstop fix, thus milking the pro sports cash cow a little harder. Will this find an audience? The NBA already sells a pay-per-view package called NBA League Pass that offers 40 games a week to those willing to stomach the $169 per season price tag. Right now such services are only available to a few million homes with small satellite dishes or digital cable hookups. Yet the drive to push the channel selection ever higher never stops. Speedworld and The Golf Channel will join a 24-hour horseracing channel next summer. Why the Enquirer can't compete
The National Enquirer wants you to stop mocking it and start respecting it. Circulation is down-way down-and the king of supermarket tabloids got a makeover to buy itself some respectability. "A lot of people think of the Enquirer as pictures of Elvis being alive and aliens, but we're trying to attack that," explains editor Steve Cox. "We are bold and saucy, but the design gives us a bright, credible look." The Enquirer called in graphic design guru Roger Black, who performed facelifts on Newsweek, Esquire, TV Guide, and even Foreign Affairs. Call it putting icing on a trashcan, but the tabloid is serious about its newsier look, sporting bolder typefaces and more modern-looking headlines. According to The Wall Street Journal, a group of investors spent $300 million and absorbed $467 million in debt last spring to buy the Enquirer's parent company, American Media. Circulation is down from 4.5 million in 1985 to about 2.2 million now. The investment firm Evercore Partners now must get a return on its investment. After the estimated $10 million upgrade, the tabloid looks about the same to untrained eyes. The Enquirer swears the days of big stories about Elvis and aliens are over, but a recent issue gave dirt about Hillary Clinton's facelift, discussed charges that John Travolta is gay, and showed an 81-year-old Mickey Spillane going door-to-door for the Jehovah's Witnesses. It even featured a story about aspiring starlet Emily Lloyd, who claimed her career was trashed after she took a pilgrimage to India and was bitten by the Dalai Lama's dog. And while there was no Elvis story, a feature scrutinized daughter Lisa Marie's love affair with a 25-year-old Hawaiian rock singer. The National Enquirer, it seems, is still squirming to survive, but pop culture and real news are so extreme today that the tabloids aren't all that different from The Washington Post.
