Heidi Montag, who recently debuted her new body after having multiple plastic surgeries, filmed scenes yesterday for her first movie role in the comedy Just Go With It (working title The Pretend Wife). The film stars Adam Sandler, Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Kidman and Brooklyn Decker and is due out in 2011. It was recently reported that Heidi announced she would no longer be managed by her anger-management-challanged husband Spencer Pratt, opting instead to rely on psychic Aiden Chase. She said, "Having an intuitive psychic leading my team gives me an edge no one else has."
During a break from filming, Heidi Montag modeled her new line of hair care products, called Heidi Montag. Heidi, dressed in a bra revealing, low cut polka dot top, blue short shorts and pink slippers, also posed with her new manager and psychic Aiden Chase.

The San Francisco Peace Corps staff gives a huge "Thank You!" for the ongoing support of NorCal and individual RPCVs. We are fortunate to have such an active RPCV community. Many of you have spoken on panels, information sessions, and other recruitment events. We particularly enjoyed the Bay Area "Around the World - Send Off" event last May where more than 50 RPCVs displayed photos, art, maps, etc., and more than 200 people attended. We appreciate your "story slams" and other activities to "bring the world home" and look forward to collaborating in the coming year.
New PCV gets his Invitation, May 2013 Send Off Party
In October 2012, the San Francisco office merged with the Los Angeles and Seattle offices, forming one West Coast region with 10 office-based recruiters and field-based recruiters in San Diego, Santa Cruz, Sacramento, Spokane, and Portland. The merger has brought opportunities for sharing best practices throughout the region.
If you have checked out peacecorps.gov lately, you'll notice a world map on the home page. Peace Corps is moving toward greater transparency by sharing upcoming Volunteer assignments by country and departure date. In 2014, Peace Corps will increase recruitment and promotion and streamline the application process.
In 2013, the San Francisco office welcomed two new recruiters: Sean Michetti (Bulgaria 2010-2012) and Clint Niehus (Senegal 2010-2012). We said farewell to Administrative Clerk Annaliza Constantino, who helped organize RPCV career workshops and Around the World events, and welcomed Monica Baxter (Nicaragua 2010-2012) as new clerk.
Peace Corps Week is February 24 to March 1. This is a great opportunity to participate in Third Goal activities. Check out peacecorps.gov/PCWeek for more information.
Again, thank you for your ongoing support of Peace Corps and continuing to tell your story. We wish you the best in 2014 and look forward to seeing you at a hangout, meeting, or event soon!

That was the kind of game the Wings needed to play. Strong defensively, pretty much relentless offensively. The Devils never really got set up and scored both their goals on rebounds. Ozzie played a solid game and made a couple big saves, even if he didn't face a whole lot of shots. And Stevie gets a highlight-reel goal. Can't ask for much else, except to do it again.

Business Law
Ask a Business Lawyer. Get Business Law Questions Answered ASAP.
Thank you for your question. Please permit me to assist you with your concerns.To answer your question directly, there is no legitimate legal or even practical benefit for you to seek to vacate the default, especially if the other party missed their deadline to properly respond. Until and if the other party offers a potential settlement that would entice you to drop the suit, filing for a default is not just a sound approach but is the most favorable. There is really nothing in this action that the courts would look to unfavorably--while you can also pursue negotiations and a settlement, until it is signed or written, there is no practical reason under which to drop the claim.Good luck.
Thank you for your follow-up, Riopua.It is my understanding that courts are likely to grant defendants on a motion to vacate the default, so proceeding with an entry for judgement would create work for us that would be for nothing, since chances are the default will be vacated?Yes and no. Courts will evaluate the basis of the default petition. If the other party failed to have raised timely objections, then your side's facts are considered binding, final, and no longer objectionable, which on that virtue alone stands to grant a strong chance for a default judgment. A default is granted when there are no facts in dispute, and by failing to respond timely it may well be that no longer are any facts in dispute.Why would the defendant's counsel inquire if we would drop the default? Because he is trying to save himself work. It is hard to demand a dismissal not be granted when they already blew deadlines. Plus, it may well be an attempt to negotiate, but until negotiations take lace their request has no viable merit.Is this a typical inquiry?Yes, it is. But unless the parties are amicable (and most are not), the request is denied without a second thought. Do plaintiffs usually acquiesce to such requests as professional etiquette, or do they barter for concessions, or not grant it at all? They do not grant it. Makes no good sense to grant it.Good luck.

March 14, 2014
OAK RIDGE, Tenn. – Alabama Rowing is set to start the spring portion of its 2013-14 schedule at the Oak Ridge Cardinal Classic, hosted by the University of Louisville, in Oak Ridge, Tenn. Two days of races begin on Saturday, March 15.
The weekend action will be split into three sessions, with a Saturday morning session at 9 a.m., a Saturday afternoon session at 3 p.m. and a Sunday morning session at 9 a.m. Other crews competing this weekend against Alabama include Louisville, Virginia, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Michigan State, Minnesota, Tennessee, Duke, Dayton Kansas and West Virginia.
The Crimson Tide and the Michigan State Spartans, both competing this weekend, warmed up for the spring schedule with a scrimmage last weekend in Tuscaloosa on the Black Warrior River. Running four 1,000-meter pieces, Alabama had an opportunity to compete against one of the premiere programs in the country. Head Coach Larry Davis knows the tough level of competition will help the Tide this weekend.
"Having the opportunity to scrimmage a high-level team like Michigan State earlier in the spring than we normally race is a huge plus," said Davis. "It helps us improve our racing skills and I know it will pay dividends for us at the Oak Ridge Invitational."
Results from the weekend will posted at row2k.com and GoCards.com.

IT is a great day for innovation and collaboration as South King County schools savor the victory of winning a $40 million Race to the Top federal grant.
Schools in Auburn, Federal Way, Highline, Kent, Renton, Seattle and Tukwila make up the three-year-old Road Map District Consortium, a network of ideas and efforts from early learning to college prep to support students from ages 3 to 23.
The 16 winners nationwide, selected from 371 applicants, shared a common theme of being inventive and inclusive in their approach to education reforms.
In South King County, the usual working group of superintendents, teachers and principals expanded to involve local mayors, business leaders and the King County Housing Authority. The housing authority, with its connection to low-income families, was an insightful inclusion.

This is a game changer and a good bet to dramatically improve education for the 150,000 students in the Road Map District's 261 schools.
Coherent plans are in place for the money. They include: increasing the number of children ready for kindergarten and raising the quality of instruction in math and science and for English-language learners.
Early intervention for struggling students is a key focus of the grant. But another smart focus helps students plan bright futures that include college and career training.
Free SAT and PSAT tests and more training for middle- and high-school guidance counselors is the right approach.
The money will be used to add International Baccalaureate programs and Advanced Placement courses and train more teachers to teach them.
Expansions in science, technology, engineering and math and international courses will serve workplace needs unique to our local economy.
In the past, Washington failed to garner a state Race to the Top grant. The Obama administration revamped the rules this year to include local school districts, not just states, in the competition.
That turned out to be the perfect opportunity for a group of motivated school districts to showcase their ongoing innovative work.
There's no need for other school districts to wait on the state for education reforms. The Road Map District Consortium offers a smart template.

It might seem counterintuitive to suggest Tom Hardy for the role of Batman, given that the British actor played bad guy Bane in The Dark Knight Rises. But with his gravelly voice, luscious lips and brooding nature, Hardy seems a perfect fit.

Mount Laurel FestivalBy SOD Posted: May 28, 2003
Want a chance to see your favorite stars in person? This summer, the Mount Laurel Festival in the Poconos will give you that chance, thanks to DAYS OF OUR LIVES's Matthew Ashford (Jack) and his wife, Christina. "Christina and I had an opportunity to set this up through our good friend who is the musical director at Mt. Laurel Festival," explains the actor. "He came to us and asked what we thought about a soap night. A lot of people have sung a little bit at various things, but how many people have done a cabaret? It's a beautiful facility that seats 500 and allows the actors to do a 55 minute set."But there's also a worthy cause attached to the event. "It's a job and a percentage at the door goes to Retinoblastoma International, which was part of our deal. The event will go on throughout the summer and depending on the response, may continue into the fall. It will become an ongoing fundraising. I feel like so many people in daytime have so many talents that they haven't been able to show and now can show them in a whole other arena and I'm all for that. I think it will be very entertaining and fun." In addition to Ashford, Ricky Paull Goldin (Gus, GL), Catherine Hickland (Lindsay, OLTL), Tamara Tunie (Jessica, ATWT), Vanita Harbour (Dara, GH) Kevin Spirtas (ex-Craig, DAYS), Paul Anthony Stewart (Danny, GL) and Bruce Michael Hall (Joey, OLTL) will also perform. Call 570-588-5959 for more information.

SOUTHERN UTAH vs. WASHINGTON STATE
3:30 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 14
Martin Stadium (32,740)
Pullman, Wash.
COUGARS HOST SOUTHERN UTAH FOR HOME OPENER: Washington State University makes is 2013 Martin Stadium debut Saturday hosting Southern Utah University. Kickoff is slated for 3:30 p.m. on the Pac-12 Networks.
NEXT WEEK: Washington State's football game against the University of Idaho set for Saturday, Sept. 21 during Homecoming Weekend will kickoff at 7:30 p.m. and be televised by the Pac-12 Networks.
MIKE LEACH RADIO SHOW: Washington State Head Coach Mike Leach holds a weekly radio show on WSU's flagship station 920 KXLY on Thursdays from 6-7 p.m. live from Zeppoz in Pullman.
BOB ROBERTSON, NATION'S LONGEST TENURED RADIO ANNOUNCER: Hall of fame announcer Bob Robertson is in his 47th season calling Cougar football games, and according to a nation-wide survey of sports information directors, is the longest tenured radio announcer in the country with the next closest being Bill Hillgrove who has announced 44 straight seasons at Pitt. Robertson began calling WSU games in 1964 and with the exception of a three-year period in 1969-71, has been calling Cougar games ever since. This season, Robertson will slide over from his familiar play-by-play role and pass the microphone to Bud Nameck. Robertson will host the Cougars pre, halftime and postgame shows, while also providing analysis during the games.
COLLEGE GAMEDAY RECORD: In addition to Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit and Lee Corso, ESPN's College GameDay has had another constant – the WSU flag, which this weekend will be making its 135th consecutive appearance on the weekly show, dating back to the beginning of the 2004 season. Two flags – Ol' Crimson and Gray – have been flown in the background of the GameDay set by dozens of friends and alumni. The Gray flag was added this year after Whitey was retired in honor of Steve Gleason's "No White Flags." WSU recognized the GameDay flag wavers in a pregame ceremony prior to the Montana State game in 2010. In addition to the flags that fly, there is a traveling flag signed by the holders after each episode. The traveling flag is retired after each season, the first of which is hanging in WSU's Alumni Center.
WILSON, YOST JOIN COUGAR COACHING STAFF: The 2013 Washington State coaching staff owns a pair of new faces in linebackers coach Ken Wilson and inside wide receivers coach David Yost. Wilson comes to WSU after spending the past 20-plus seasons at the University of Nevada. Yost joins Mike Leach's offensive staff after working on Gary Pinkel's University of Missouri staff as the recruiting coordinator and quarterbacks coach the past 12 seasons, including the Tigers inaugural season in the SEC in 2012.
HORTON NAMED PAC-12 DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Senior cornerback Damante Horton was named the Pac-12 Conference Defensive Player of the Week following his two-interception performance in Saturday's win at No. 25 USC. Horton led a spirited defensive effort by the Cougars in their 10-7 upset win over No. 25/22 USC in Los Angeles. Trailing 7-0 late in the first half, Horton picked off a Cody Kessler pass and raced 70 yards for the touchdown. It marked Horton's second career interception return for a touchdown, the first coming at Oregon in 2011. Horton then sealed WSU's victory by stepping in front of a Max Wittek pass with less than three minutes remaining in the game, ending the USC comeback attempt. Horton led the WSU secondary that held All-American receiver Marquis Lee in check, limiting him to seven catches for only 27 yards. He added four tackles, including a career-best two tackles-for-loss for a combined 12 yards. The Oakland, Calif. native was also named the National Defensive Player of the Week by Athlon Sports and National Defensive Back of the Week by the College Football Performance Awards.
COUGARS IN HOME OPENERS: Washington State is 78-34-3 all-time in home openers, including games in Pullman, Spokane and Seattle. Since 1990 the Cougars boast a 16-7 record in home debuts, and are 26-12 dating back to the start of the 1975 season. WSU beat Eastern Washington 24-20 in the season opener last season.
YOUTH MOVEMENT CONTINUES: The Cougars saw a youth movement in 2012, as 17 freshmen, including nine true freshmen, appeared in a game. Overall, Washington State had 20 players make their first career start last season including five freshmen who earned starts. In the season opener at Auburn, WSU started true freshman wideout River Cracraft (3-catches for 14 yards) and later saw freshman cornerback Daquawn Brown tally four tackles, including one for loss. Brown made his first collegiate start Saturday at No. 25 USC and answered the call by tallying a game-high 11 tackles and two pass break-ups while helping hold the Trojans Marqise Lee to 27 receiving yards. The Cougars have started eight sophomores in each of the first two games, four on each side of the ball.
WSU VS. THE BIG SKY: Dating back to a 34-0 victory over Montana in 1903, the Cougars have played 46 games against teams currently in the Big Sky Conference. WSU is 43-2 in those games - including 19 shutouts - and has not lost to a team currently in the Big Sky in more than 60 years. The Cougars have won 16 straight meetings against Big Sky schools since a 13-12 road loss to Montana in 1947. The Cougars are 28-0 when playing a current Big Sky school in Pullman following last season's 24-20 victory over Eastern Washington. Since the formation of the Pacific-10 Conference in 1978, the Cougars have won all 17 games played against Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) schools.
BUCANNON CLIMBING WSU RECORD BOOK: Senior Deone Bucannon has placed his name throughout the WSU record book. Following his team-leading 14 tackles (12 solo) at Auburn and eight tackle performance in the win at USC, the Fairfield, Calif. native sits fifth in career solo tackles (206) and just outside the top-10 for total tackles (292). Bucannon also owns nine career interceptions, needing just two more to break into the WSU's career top-10, and has posted 13 career double-digit tackle performances.
BUCANNON POSTED 100-TACKLE SEASON: Safety Deone Bucannon picked up his first career all-conference accolade last season, earning All-Pac-12 second team honors after making a team-high 106 tackles, tied for second-most in the Pac-12 and was the highest total by any non-linebacker. The 106 stops is WSU's first 100-tackle season since Eric Frampton made 100 in 2006 and is the most since James Darling made 136 in 1996. Bucannon also made a team-best four interceptions including a two-interception performance against Oregon. The Fairfield, Calif. native posted seven double-digit tackle performances including a 17-tackle game at Arizona State. Bucannon also pushed his career solo tackle total to 190, seventh-most in school history.
FURNEY DOING HIS THING: Kicker Andrew Furney picked up where he left off from last season, hitting from 44 yards at Auburn before hitting the game-winner from 41 yards out with 3:03 remaining at USC. Furney's has pushed his career made field goal total to 33, moving him past Rian Lindell and into sole possession of fourth place for the most makes in program history. Furney earned All-Pac-12 second team honors after going 14-for-20 on field goal attempts, tied for second in the conference. The Burlington, Wash. native was a perfect 7-for-7 on attempts inside 30 yards and 6-of-10 on kicks outside of 40 yards including a conference-best 60-yarder against Eastern Washington. Furney went 25-of-26 on PATs and capped his season earning Pac-12 Special Teams Player of the Week after going 3-for-3 in the Apple Cup victory, kicking a game-tying 45-yarder with 1:59 remaining and later hitting the game-winner from 27-yards in overtime.
HALLIDAY AT IT AGAIN: Quarterback Connor Halliday picked up where he left off from 2011, tearing up the record books in 2012 and in this season's opener at Auburn. The Spokane native opened the 2013 campaign by going 35-of-65 for 344 yards, the second-most pass attempts in WSU single-game history trailing only Drew Bledsoe's 66 against Montana in 1992. Halliday also recorded his sixth career 300-yard performance, tying for third-most in school history with Timm Rosenbach and Jason Gesser. Last season, Halliday passed for 378 yards and four touchdowns at UNLV then followed with 401 yards and four touchdown passes against Colorado. It was the first time a WSU quarterback has posted back-to-back four-touchdown games since 2007 when Alex Brink threw for five scores against San Diego State and four against Idaho. Halliday owns five 300-yard performances, two 400-yard games and four four-touchdown performances after passing for 494 yards and four scores against Arizona State in 2011. He notched his first career five-touchdown game against UCLA, the tenth such game in WSU history. Following his seven-yard touchdown pass to Bobby Ratliff at Auburn, Halliday now owns 25 career touchdown passes, needing one more to move into WSU's top-10.
RUNNING GAME: Washington State showcased its improved running game in the season opener at Auburn, rushing for 120 yards and two touchdowns, its highest rushing total since posting 125 rushing yards at Oregon in 2011. Sophomore Teondray Caldwell led the way with seven carries for 57 yards, junior Marcus Mason added 47 yards on six carries and redshirt-sophomore Jeremiah Laufasa rushed for two scores.
COUGARS KNOCK OFF NO. 25 USC: Washington State's 10-7 win at No. 25 USC last Saturday was its first victory over the Trojans since 2002 and first win over USC in Los Angeles since 2000. The victory was also the first win over a ranked team since beating No. 16 Oregon in Pullman in 2006 and the first win over a ranked opponent on the road since beating No. 5 Texas in the 2003 Holiday Bowl.
DEFENSE SETTING THE TONE: The Cougars defense has posted some impressive numbers in the first two weeks, holding Auburn University to 99 yards passing and 4-of-13 on third down before limiting No. 25 USC to 54 yards passing, 193 yards in total offense and All-American wideout Marqise Lee to 51 all-purpose yards. WSU enters the week third in the country in pass defense, fifth in total defense and eighth in scoring.
BUCANNON GARNERS PRESEASON ACCOLADES: Senior safety Deone Bucannon was named to the Jim Thorpe Award 2013 watch list, the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame and Jim Thorpe Association announced in July. Bucannon is one of 48 players included on the watch list for the award that honors the nation's best defensive back. The Fairfield, Calif. native was an All-Pac-12 second team selection last season after making a team-high 106 tackles, tied for second-most in the Pac-12 and was the highest total by any non-linebacker. Bucannon also made a team-best four interceptions including a two-interception performance against Oregon. Bucannon posted seven double-digit tackle performances including a 17-tackle game at Arizona State. Earlier this summer, Bucannon was named to the Preseason All-Pac-12 Second Team by both Athlon Sports and Phil Steel Magazine and was also named to the Preseason All-America Fourth Team by Athlon Sports.
BOWLIN, FURNEY NAMED TO PRESEASON AWARD WATCH LISTS: Senior punter Mike Bowlin and senior kicker Andrew Furney were each named to preseason award watch lists this summer. Bowlin is one of 25 candidates named to the Ray Guy Award preseason watch list that honors the nation's top collegiate punter. Bowlin averaged 41.9 yards-per-punt last season, his first with the Cougars. The Aliso Viejo, Calif. native put eight punts inside the 20, recorded 14 kicks of 50+ yards including a season long of 69. Bowlin also recorded 18 touchbacks on kickoffs, the most by a Cougar since 2005. For the second straight season, Furney is one of the 30 players named to the Lou Groza College Place-Kicker Award Watch List. Furney, a Groza Award semifinalist in 2011, earned second team All-Pac-12 accolades along with Phil Steele Midseason second team All-American honors last season after going 14-for-20 on field goal attempts. The Burlington, Wash. native was a perfect 7-for-7 on attempts inside 30 yards and 6-of-10 on kicks outside of 40 yards including a conference-best 60-yarder against Eastern Washington. Furney went 25-of-26 on PATs.
DEFENSE RACKED UP THE SACKS: The Washington State defense tallied 35 sacks in 2012, fifth-most in the Pac-12 Conference and tied for No. 11 in the country at 2.9 per game. Following a year in which the Cougars recorded 17 in the 2011 season, the switch to a 3-4 defense saw more linebackers in the backfield as 23 of the 35 sacks came from linebackers. The Cougars also racked up 92 tackles-for-loss, the fifth-highest total in the Pac-12, and seventh-most per game (7.7) in the country. The 35 sacks are the most by a Cougar defense since the 2006 team had 36 while the 92 tackles-for-loss are the most since the 2003 team had 93. WSU also picked off 15 passes, the most since the 2006 team finished with 16 interceptions.
COUGARS PRODUCE PAC-12'S TOP PASSING MARK: Washington State finished 2012 with the top passing attack in the Pac-12 Conference at 330.4 yards-per-game. That figure ranked ninth nationally and marked the second-highest average in school history. Six times the Cougars threw for more than 300 yards led by Connor Halliday's four 300-yard performances, tying for third-most in the conference. WSU posted school single-season records for completions (363) and pass attempts (624), breaking the previous marks of 309 completions and 525 attempts, both set in 2007.
NEW FACES MADE BIG IMPACTS IN 2012: Washington State saw a number of new faces on the field in 2012 as 17 freshmen (nine true freshmen) made their debuts and 20 players made their first career start. The newcomers were led by junior nose tackle Ioane Gauta who started all 12 games, made 31 stops including 8.5 tackles-for-loss, three sacks and an interception. Freshman wideout Brett Bartolone earned All-Pac-12 honorable mention after leading WSU with 53 receptions and added four touchdowns while fellow freshman Gabe Marks finished third on the team with 49 catches and tallied a pair of 100-yard performances in his first collegiate season. Freshman running back Teondray Caldwell was second on the team in rushing and earned All-Pac-12 honorable mention as a kick returner after finishing the year third in the Pac-12 in kickoff return average at 25.0, posting a 63-yard return at BYU, a 54-yarder against Colorado and a 92-yarder against Oregon.
MONROE MADE HIS MARK: Linebacker Darryl Monroe produced some impressive numbers in his first full season for the Cougars in 2012, starting all 12 games at MIKE linebacker. Monroe earned All-Pac-12 honorable mention after finishing second on the team in tackles with 80 including 8.5 tackles-for-loss. He also forced two fumbles, recovered one fumble and made three sacks. The Orlando, Fla. native redshirted the 2011 season after suffering a leg injury in the season opener but has bounced back after adding 15 pounds to his frame since arriving from Dr. Phillips High School where he was named one of the top five linebackers in the state of Florida as a senior.
COOPER, WILLIAMS PRODUCE AFTER REDSHIRT SEASON: After redshirting the 2011 campaign, their first seasons campus, defensive lineman Xavier Cooper and wideout Dom Williams both put up impressive numbers in 2012. Cooper earned All-Pac-12 honorable mention after tying for third on the team with 8.5 tackles-for-loss including three sacks while Williams made 34 catches for 546 yards and three touchdowns. Williams started the final five games and capped the season with his first career 100-yard performance, catching eight passes for 143 yards in the Apple Cup victory.
BOWLIN BLASTS AWAY: Kicker Mike Bowlin provided a big boost to the WSU kicking game in 2012, recording 18 touchbacks on kickoffs to surpass 2011's total of one, Nick Grasu's mark of 11 in 2010, Loren Langley and Romeen Abdollmohammadi's combined total of 14 in 2006 and matched Graham Siderius' recorded 18 in 2005. Bowlin also recorded 14 punts of 50+ yards and put eight punts inside the 20.
SPECIAL TEAMS IMPROVED: The Cougars return game saw improvement in 2012 as Teondray Caldwell earned All-Pac-12 honorable mention as a kick returner after finishing third in the conference with a 25.0 kick return average. Caldwell recorded kick returns of 63 yards at BYU, a 54-yarder against Colorado and nearly took one to house against No. 2 Oregon, going for 92 yards. The punt return team nearly doubled the 2011 return average and improved its national ranking by 30 spots with a 6.8 return average. Leon Brooks led WSU with a 10.6 return average, more than three times the average of 2011. Additionally, the kickoff coverage team finished No. 61 in the country, allowing 21.3 per return, a big improvement from 2011's coverage team that ranked No. 99.
TALIULU MADE IMPRESSIVE COUGAR DEBUTS: Safety Taylor Taliulu showed little nerves while making his collegiate debut in last year's season opener at BYU, racking up nine tackles and breaking up two passes. It was the most tackles by a freshman in his debut since Chima Nwachukwu also recorded nine tackles at Wisconsin in 2007. The Aiea, Hawaii native followed that performance with by tying for a WSU game-high with seven tackles in the home opener against Eastern Washington.

In response to Flattiehater's comment:
I did answer your question by saying it had nothing to do with 'shortstop'. There were two separate sentences: 1) Wanting Youk back at first base, 2) preferring Youk's bat over Iglesias' bat. But what this really boils down to is this: you're just angry because I previously called you out about your incessant whining about wanting Valentine gone which I wouldn't have done had you simply stated that you thought it would be in the interests of the team if he were fired. But, like a whiny five year old brat you stomped your feet and cried and had a tantrum as if that would get you what you wanted. Now, like all spoiled children you hold a grudge for someone calling your obsession for what it was. My advice--get over yourself Einstein.

Take him at first in a heartbeat. I'd take his bat every day of the week over 'automatic out' Iglesias.
What does 1B have to do with SS? Or did you want Youk at SS?
It has nothing to do with SS. It was a comment strictly about hitting. It may be that your inability to think in more than one dimension is what stupidity really is. Yes?
You're the one comparing Youk to Iglesias. Did you want Youk at SS or what? And as a physicist I can think in more than one dimension just fine thanks. You however still haven't answered one of my questions.
I have no idea what you're even talking about. But since I was actually civil to pike last night I feel like I've fulfilled my quota of being nice to morons for the week, so I'll just go back to ignoring your stupidity. Have a great night.


text: BEFORE THE WORKERS' COMPENSATION BOARD OF THE STATE OF OREGON HEARINGS DIVISION Oregon Occupational Safety & Health Division ) Docket No. SH91078 Plaintiff, ) Citation No. Vl58903591 vs . ) WENDELL'S CONSTRUCTION ) Defendant ) OPINION AND ORDER A hearing was held on July 12, l991 in Portland, Oregon. Oregon OSHA was represented by Armonica M. Gilford. Lester E. Wendell appeared as the authorized representative for Wendell's Construction. ISSUE Defendant challenges all items, except l4, of citation No. Vl58903591 issued following a February l, l991 inspection of an excavation project at 77th and S. E. Powell in Portland, Oregon. The citation (Exhibit A) is attached for reference. FACTS Lester E. Wendell owns Wendell's Construction. He dug the trench in question on February l, l991. It was approximately 35 feet long, 9 feet deep and 3 to 5 feet wide. Wendell had at least two employees on site. The inspection by Oregon OSHA occurred at 1:00 p.m. on February l, l991. Neither Wendell nor his employees had been in the trench before the inspection. They were in the process of installing shoring at the time of the inspection. The one aluminum hydraulic shore that was in place was installed from the top without anyone being in the trench. An aluminum ladder was in the trench. It had bent rungs And did not extend 36 inches above the top of the excavation. Wendell did not have a valid certificate in first aid training and was not aware if any of his employees did. OPINION AND CONCLUSIONS Items l-l 1-2 and 1-3 Items 1-1, 1-2 and 1-3 concern whether someone from Wendell's Construction was in the trench and the manner of installing shoring, the type of shoring required and the proper location of soil removed from the trench. Wendell and the two employees who were working on the trench project stated the ditch had just been dug and no one from Wendell's Construction had been in the ditch; that they were in the process of shoring and had adequate shoring on site; and that the soil was to moved back away from the top (see Exhibit 5, Item 1-2) after the shoring was in place. The safety compliance officer stated Wendell told him he had been in the hole and that he was not familiar with the code. Wendell replied that someone from the City, which was doing trenching close by, had been in the trench but nobody from his company. The safety officer did not see anyone in the trench. I have no reason to disbelieve Wendell and the two workers. They were direct, forthright and didn't overstate. Their testimony shows Wendell's Construction was in the process of shoring and moving the soil when the inspection took place. The testimony from the three individuals that no one got in the trench to install the shoring and the explanation of how it is designed to be installed from the top, persuasively overcomes evidence to the contrary. The weight of evidence does not show violation of Item l-l. Additional shoring was going to take place. The testimony of Wendell's lack of knowledge of the code is insufficient to establish that when the shoring was completed the standard would be violated. Wendell's testimony that the soil should not be moved back until the shoring was in place was not rebutted. The work had not progressed to the point where the soil would be moved back away from the top of the trench. At the time of the inspection, it was premature to conclude that the standards listed in Items l-2 and l-3 were violated. I find the preponderance of evidence does not establish violations of the standards charged in Items l-1, l-2 and l-3. Item l-5 The standard alleged to be violated in this item requires that in the absence of an infirmary, clinic, hospital or physician that is reasonably accessible in terms of time and distance, which is available to treat injured workers. a person who has a valid certificate in first aid training from the U. S. Bureau of Mines, The American Red Cross, or equivalent training that can be verified by documentary evidence, shall be available at the work site to render first aid. Neither Wendell nor the two employees who were working with him had a valid certificate in first aid training. Wendell testified that a plumber he had working in the apartment adjacent to the trench had a valid certificate. It is apparent from the testimony, however, that at the time of the inspection Wendell did not know the plumber had a certificate. In approaching the excavation project he had not determined that someone properly trained was available should an accident occur. Moreover, the general testimony about the plumber is insufficient to establish he had the specific type of certificate required by the standard. I find by a preponderance of evidence that the standard charged in Item l-5 was violated. The probability of an accident was low, but if one did occur the absence of a trained person could result in serious physical harm. The proposed penalty is appropriate. Item 2-6 Wendell acknowledged the ladder had bent and damaged rungs. The charged standard was violated. ORDER IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that in Citation No. Vl58903591: l) Items l-2 and l-3 are vacated. 2) Items l-4, l-5 and 2-6 are affirmed. NOTICE TO ALL PARTIES: You are entitled to judicial review of this Order. Proceedings for review are to be instituted by filing a petition in the Court of Appeals, Supreme Court Building, Salem, Oregon 97310, within 60 days following the date this Order is entered and served as shown hereon. The procedure for such judicial review is prescribed by ORS 183.480 and ORS 183.482. Entered at Portland, Oregon on JULY 24 1991 BY Albert L. Menashe, Referee

Opposing the government plan to hand over six leading Airports Authority of India-run airports to private players, its employees union has asked the government to hand over smaller airports to them and not those where huge investment has already been made.
The union has also threatened a nation-wide four-day relay hunger strike from October 22 as a part of their ongoing agitation, which started earlier this month by sporting black ribbons, to protest the privatisation move.
The aviation ministry recently decided to hand over the AAI-run Kolkata, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Jaipur and Guwahati airports to private companies despite opposition from unions, after investing over Rs 5,000 crore for their modernisation.
The government says it plans to develop a network of 100 smaller airports. So, why it should not ask private companies to develop them instead of giving the revenue generating ones to corporates, Airports Authority of India (AAI) Employees Union general secretary Balraj Singh Ahlawat said.
Alleging that the government wants AAI to develop only those airports which would hardly have any traffic or revenue, Ahlawat said, Our revenue has already gone down substantially due to privatisation of Delhi and Mumbai airports, which were the backbone of AAI.
AirAsia India wants to use old Chennai terminal<\b>
Mumbai: Concerned over an expected cost escalation due to the government decision to privatise six more AAI-run airports, AirAsia India has sought the aviation ministrys permission to run its proposed operations from the old terminal of the Chennai airport, sources said.

During the 19th century, Lexington was a leader in Kentucky's hemp industry. As one of the state's key cash crops, Lexington played a central role in its production, sale, and use.

A two night, two day bourbon itinerary discovering five bourbon distilleries, all within 25 miles of Lexington, Kentucky.
The Bluegrass Region's reputation for fine horses and fine bourbon whiskey is known world-wide. Magnificent horse farms and charming bourbon distilleries share a place in this extraordinary landscape of gently rolling hills. Here is a suggestion for discovering the heritage of America's only native spirit.
Night One
Arrive in Lexington in time for dinner. Start your bourbon tour at one of Lexington's downtown restaurants for some great regional cuisine. Be sure to stop off at Belle's Cocktail House at 156 Market Street, named after one of Lexington's most notorious citizens. Take a stroll through nearby Gratz Park or Triangle Park, then head for your hotel.
Restaurant suggestions:
Blue Heron Steakhouse on Jefferson Street
Tony's on Main Street
Dudley's on Short Street
Get more Lexington restaurant suggestions here.
Day One: Woodford Reserve and Buffalo Trace
For early risers, make your first stop Keeneland Race Course for the early morning workouts. Come around 7:30 a.m. to be sure you see horses out on the track. Then go over to the track kitchen and enjoy a hearty and inexpensive Southern breakfast. From Keeneland, continue out U.S. 60 to Woodford Reserve Distillery. A National Historic Landmark, this bourbon distillery is nestled between Thoroughbred horse farms.
Woodford Reserve is a premium small batch bourbon. Tours cover the process from cooking the grains in limestone water to the distillation process in copper stills made in Scotland. You'll also learn about the special barrels required for bourbon, and see the warehouses. Take advantage of Picnic on the Porch (April through October) before heading to your next stop. The adventurous should take the back roads to Buffalo Trace, past the fascinating remnants of two old distilleries: Old Crow Distillery and Old Taylor distillery. (Follow 1659 all the way to Main Street in Frankfort. Turn right on Main and left on US 60. Buffalo Trace will be on your right.)
Buffalo Trace, like all bourbon distilleries, carefully guards its unique mash bill--its own secret combination of corn, rye and malted barley. In addition to its flagship bourbon, Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, the distillery produces other finely crafted bourbons including Blanton's, W.L. Weller, Old Charter and Eagle Rare. A variety of bourbon tours cover the history of the distillery (there has been a working distillery on the grounds since 1787) and differences between whiskey and bourbon. You'll get to visit the hand bottling hall and a century old aging warehouse.
Take the scenic route back to Lexington. From US 60, take 1681, just after crossing under I 64. This is Old Frankfort Pike, one of Kentucky's best scenic byways. You'll pass farms and fences made of dry laid limestone, the same limestone that underlies the pastures of the Bluegrass Region, helping to build the strong bones of championship horses.
Bluegrass Note: Discover more bourbon distilleries near Lexington at www.kentuckybourbontrail.com, the site of the official Kentucky Bourbon Trail.
Night Two
Portofino for great Italian cuisine and a fine selection of bourbons at the bar
Ramsey's for comfort food, including a great Hot Brown
Malone's for fine steaks
For evening entertainment, take a carriage ride through downtown Lexington. Need something a little move lively? Check out the calendar at www.visitlex.com and see what's going on while you're in town.
Need to sample more bourbon?? These hot spots have more bourbons than you can possibly experience on one trip:
Bluegrass Tavern
Henry Clay's Public House
Day Two: Four Roses and Wild Turkey
Head out US 60 again. If you couldn't manage to rise early enough yesterday, here's a second chance to stop at Keeneland on your way to Lawrenceburg. Note the unusual castle just before you enter the Bluegrass Parkway. The small Bluegrass Region town of Lawrenceburg claims two distilleries.
Four Roses is not your typical Kentucky bourbon distillery. Situated on the banks of the Salt River, its Spanish Mission-style architecture of the early 1900s is unusual for Kentucky. For a time in the 30s, 40s and 50s, their bourbon was only produced for export in the European and Asian markets. It's now sold in 21 U.S. states as well as Spain, France, Italy, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland and Japan. Learn about the process that produces this mellow bourbon with its rich, fruity flavors on one of their distillery tours.
For a great lunch stop in Lawrenceburg, try Talk of the Town, on Broadway, for soups, sandwiches and Hot Browns.
The last stop on your tour will be Wild Turkey. Bourbon making at this site on the Kentucky River goes back to the mid 19th century. The tour you take today reveals an intriguing combination of tradition and modern mass production. For example, in the fermentation room, 70-year-old cypress tanks, still in use, stand next to modern stainless steel tanks.
Try to make it back to Lexington in time to tour the first Bourbon distillery to be built in Lexington in over 100 years: Town Branch Distillery.

Yesterday I read something here that catapulted me some thirty years in to my past. It was a forceful and unexpected reminder of how my thoughts once took shape and how I would think them in embellished, expressive words. I do not claim ever to have had the talent to write as well as what I read yesterday but it was, as if, the voice of my soul, thirty odd years ago. Quite naturally it made me utterly nostalgic and almost compelled me to reflect on how the person who once thought in such rich, vibrant words became who I am today.
Those were languid, pensive, idealistic and very carefree days spent in Lahore, Pakistan. Although I would not dare belittle the angst of youth, but looking back with the eyes of one who has now lived fifty years, goodness, how utterly sweet was it all. The warm security of my parents' home was extraordinary. Almost everything was taken care of by someone else. Seems preposterous now but that is exactly how it was. All one had to do was to be driven to school or college, driven back home and spend endless hours reading books or painting. I would not read but devour books: Maugham, Hardy, Solzhenitsyn, Le Carre, Steinbeck, John Fowler etc. Ever keeping an eye on the Time magazine best sellers list and being disdainful of some while waxing lyrical about others. Ah, the pleasure of it all. Endless shades of endless Peepal trees (Ficus riligiosa) will be witness to endless afternoons spent reading. There was also much time given to writing. Every thought had to be penned down. Pages upon pages of thoughts and hopes and dreams. All very vivid and full of colour. The craft I was learning at college was painting and sculpting and I was fascinated by some of the colours on my palette and they often spilled over in my writing.
Then, I got married and came to live in the UK and it all changed. I discovered the sublime joy of a happy marriage and so fulfilling was it that I forgot everything. Reading (fiction) was a pleasure that I willingly gave up. The birth of our children followed which was an experience that changed me once again. Changed me from the carefree person that I always was to someone aspiring to be as assiduous a mother as possible. I tried to devote every day of my life to our children. Life threw a tribulation or two that left indelible marks. I went through a phase when the children were little when I felt my brain had actually rusted, but I never made an attempt to read books to climb out of that alien place. I was happy and content living our family life in the small town with friendly people. Our home, though very ordinary, was and is the most comforting place on this planet. Soon, I had the opportunity to extensively use my mind and it was not long before I found it 'sharpened' as perhaps never before, within its modest limits, of course. The children grew up, honest and decent people. Life has had its ups and downs but there is a contentment of heart that is immeasurable.
Looking back, I do not think I want to be as I once was. My nearly 29 years in the UK have shaped me into who I have become; my very cherished married life has made me into who I am today. I have lived life and faced its trials and I do not want to be the pampered young woman I once was. I would not know what to do after ten minutes of idling the time away. That was then, and it was idyllic, but this is now, it is real life and it is infused with the magic of contentment.

Advanced: Using a cold frame
A cold frame is basically a box with a transparent lid, creating a mini-greenhouse that allows the hungry gardener to extend the growing season for a month or more at each end.
In spring, cold frames may be used to harden off tender seedlings and to start seeds, which often fare better than under lights indoors. In fall and winter, crops such as kale, spinach and chard will flourish in cold frames long after the rest of the garden has packed up.
You can plant directly into the soil or simply set flats/pots inside the frame, which should be sited in a sheltered south-facing spot. The minimum practical size for a cold frame is 60 centimetres by 1.2 metres by 30 centimetres in height but many DIYers recycle tempered glass patio or shower doors as lids, making a cold frame roughly 80 centimetres by 2.1 metres.
The frame structure can be made of wood, brick, concrete or plastic. Overall height may vary depending on what you're growing, but the back wall is generally 10 to 15 centimetres higher than the front so the lid slopes to catch more sun and allow rain to run off.
Regular glass can be used in the lid but if safety is an issue, go with tempered glass or plastic. Success relies on keeping the cold frame not too cold, not too hot, and well ventilated; a hinged lid can be wedged open as needed to maintain an even temperature.

NBA Finals: the Spurs' gift to the league
Tony Parker scored six points. Manu Ginobili scored seven. Tim Duncan totaled 12. And the Spurs not only beat the Heat, they routed an historically great squad, 113-77 Tuesday night in Game 3 of the NBA Finals.
Here's how they did it. Danny Green scored 27 points and had a couple of magical defensive moments against LeBron James. Gary Neal scored 24 points. Kawhi Leonard had 14 points, 12 rebounds and game-long defensive success against LeBron, who finished with 15 points on 7-of-21 shooting.
Which is a great lesson for every NBA team. The world is full of quality ballplayers. There seems to be about 200 useful NBA players. You know, the good teams have eight or so, the bad teams about four.
But the truth is far different. Planet Earth produces hundreds, maybe even thousands, of guys capable of playing high-caliber NBA basketball. Teams just have to find them, nurture them and give them a chance. And it never hurts to be willing to look.
The Spurs found Leonard at San Diego State, a nondescript basketball school that had not so much as ever won an NCAA Tournament game before Leonard's arrival. The Aztecs went to the 2011 Sweet 16 with Leonard, who then turned pro after his sophomore year and was taken by the Spurs, courtesy of a draft-night trade, with the 15th pick overall. Now the Spurs have an athletic wing who can guard and score on basketball's brightest stage.
The Spurs found Neal in Italy. Neal, 28, started his college career at LaSalle, then transferred to Towson after a sexual assault charge, of which he later was acquitted. After Towson, Neal went undrafted and landed in Europe, playing in Turkey and Italy, eventually for Benetton Treviso. Neal caught on with the Spurs' summer league team, shined in Las Vegas and was signed to a contract. All those Americans who go to Europe to continue their hoops careers? Neal is the patron saint.
Green, I've written about. The No. 4 option on a great college team, North Carolina 2009, Green was drafted in the second round by the Cavaliers and eventually was cut by Cleveland. The Spurs picked up Green, cut him twice and finally kept him. And Tuesday night, he was the best player on the court in a game that involved the world's best player and the world's best team.
So that's the lesson. The Spurs did nothing magical to find such players. The Spurs did nothing revolutionary. They turned over rocks. They did their homework. They believed in young players. They focused on what players can do instead of what they can't. They put them in position to succeed. They depend on them even in critical situations.
The Spurs didn't invent any of those concepts. Other franchises, of all sports, have forged those roads long before the NBA was a gleam in San Antonio's eye. But the Spurs have embraced such beliefs and actions.
Other teams can, too. That's the gift the Spurs offer their NBA competitors today.

Restrictions on the use of the clothianidin, imidacloprid and thiamethoxam were adopted by the European Commission on May 24, 2013, and will apply from December 1, 2013.
HGCA researchers have taken a close look at the pests controlled by neonicotinoid seed treatments in cereals and oilseeds, including pest transmitted viruses, along with alternative control options and resistance challenges.
HGCA's Caroline Nicholls stated: "The greatest impact will be on oilseed rape, as these seed treatments are used to control cabbage stem flea beetle and peach–potato aphids which transmit turnip yellows virus.
"The situation is not as severe for cereal crops, as treated winter seed can still be used in autumn to control aphids carrying barley yellow dwarf virus. The restrictions only affect cereal crops sown between January and June.
"The potential total cost to the UK industry from not controlling cabbage stem flea beetle and turnip yellows virus in oilseed rape could be £72million a year," added Ms Nicholls. "Alternative chemical control options are available in most situations but there is a risk of resistance developing to some of the alternatives. To help manage the resistance threat, spray decisions should be made using crop monitoring and spray threshold information."
A publication 'Neonicotinoids: key messages' has been made available in time for this year's Cereals event, where Ms Nicholls and other researchers will be on the HGCA stand to discuss the issue with growers.

Where have I been? Getting divorced and thus ripping through TV shows on Netflix (<3 u, Veronica Mars) while imagining myself getting so fat eating chocolate pudding cups that I wouldn't be able to get out of bed and the foils would stick to my naked body. So, covered in existential pudding foils. As it were. I KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. Did you miss me??
Are you planning a Winter Solstice journey to your ancestral home (and/or your parents' condo in Florida and/or your main squeeze's parents' house), and you are trembling at the thought of how you might handle the horrible, horrible things that people will say to you in the guise of being your Loved Ones who Care About You?

I've setup Zimbra and migrated all of my users mail over to the new server. Everything seems fine except for one minor detail. I have a user that is not able to see new messages in his inbox. I have looked in the logs and I see that messages are delivered ok, but when I try viewing his inbox with the web client or with outlook nothing is there. The really weird part is that if I search for the message I will find it
Do I need to rebuild his mailbox or something like that? Any help would be appreciated.

Singapore: FIDH calls for presidential pardon for Yong Vui Kong

|International Federation for Human Rights, Singapore: FIDH calls for presidential pardon for Yong Vui Kong, 24 August 2010, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/4cb6d217c.html [accessed 31 May 2016]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
Paris – Kuala Lumpur, 25 August 2010 – The International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH), representing 164 organisations across the world, calls on the Singaporean authorities to uphold the right to life, as enshrined in international law, and urges HE S. R. Nathan, President of Singapore, to exercise his constitutional power to grant a pardon to Mr. Yong Vui Kong, a 22-year-old Malaysian national, who has been sentenced to death by hanging.
Mr Yong, from Sabah, Malaysia, was 19 years old when he was arrested on 13 June 2007 in Singapore for drug possession and was later charged with trafficking 47.27g of diamorphine under Section 5(1)(a) of the Misuse of Drugs Act. He was convicted by the Singapore High Court in 7 January 2009 and sentenced to death by hanging (1). In December 2009, Mr Yong appealed against his sentence but not his conviction, admitting his action was wrong and in violation of the law. In a trial marred by public comments by executive officials, undermining the independence of the judicial proceedings, his appeal was dismissed on 14 May 2010 by Chief Justice Chan Sek Keong. At this final stage in the proceedings, Mr. Yong's only escape from the gallows is a presidential pardon commuting his sentence from execution to life imprisonment, on the advice of the Cabinet, pursuant to Article 22(P) of the Constitution of the Republic of Singapore.
Several mitigating factors point towards the appropriate use of a presidential pardon in this case. Mr. Yong was born into a disadvantaged and vulnerable family situation. After his family moved to the estate of another family member, where Mr. Yong and his mother were repeatedly abused, Mr. Yong moved on his own as a youth to Kuala Lumpur. In addition, Mr Yong is repentant for his crime and has openly recognised his wrong-doing. He has consequently embraced Buddhism while incarcerated and has been educating his fellow inmates as well as the wider public on the destructive nature of drugs, hoping to use his remaining days to provide positive guidance to young people like himself.
FIDH opposes the death penalty in all circumstances as a cruel, inhuman punishment that violates one of the most fundamental human rights: the right to life. In addition, our Organisation wishes to underline that execution of drug traffickers both in Singapore as well as in other parts of the world has had no apparent or proven deterrent effect on drug trafficking. Despite Law Minister Shanmugam's words to the contrary, there is no empirical data supporting the deterrence effect of the death penalty for drug crimes, especially among indigent and vulnerable sectors of society. In this particular case, FIDH invites the Singaporean authorities, in particular President Nathan, to consider Mr Yong's repentance, background, and the positive message his rehabilitation and reform can send to young people around world in commuting Mr. Yong's sentence to life in prison. To this end, FIDH strongly urges a presidential pardon be granted to Mr Yong and calls the Singaporean government to take concrete steps towards abolishing the death penalty.

17 creative websites to bookmark (unless you are dumb)!
At the risk of having you never come back to this site, I have compiled a list of 17 other sites to feed your creative appetite. Dozens more could have been added to this list (perhaps there will be a sequel to it). Most of the sites included here do not get the credit they deserve, and even the popular ones deserve even more attention. In no particular order:
1. Triangle Triangle – A fantastic photoblog (my favourite on the entire internet). Jake's tastes are really similar to mine.
2. My Love For You Is a Stampede of Horses – Meighan's site is like Booooooom's cousin who comes over to jump on the trampoline. We share a love of hand-crafted, folky work, and it has that same feeling you get when you listen to a pause mixtape dubbed on cassette.
3. I Heart Photograph – Sometimes when you are training to fight and kill your arch nemesis, it helps to tape a photo of their face to the ceiling. Then you can get some reps in on the bench press and still focus on your victory. Similarly, all you photographers might want to duct tape a laptop over your bed so you can wake up every morning and just focus on this website.
4. Meathaus – Pages and pages of comic and cartooning inspiration that I don't see on every other blog out there!
5. The Strange Attractor – Newly re-designed! You will quickly see why I visit TSA often. I like to think the name is a reference to when you like that girl with the mustache but you don't want to admit that's why, so you just tell your friends 'shes got that TSA' and they totally get it.
6. Human Resources – A great selection of mostly design-related content. I don't see this one mentioned very much.
7. Beautiful/Decay – One of the few (very few) art mags out there with a blog worth visiting daily. Fresh re-design has it looking like the old Mac OS.
8. Grain Edit – Focused on graphics from the 1950s-1970s, it is a wonderful resource if you have a soft spot for vintage design work.
9. 20 x 200 – When 20×200 first started prints were available in runs of 200 for the bargain basement price of $20. I am directly linking to their blog – it's a great cross-section of artists and all the work you see is available for purchase.
10. Ventilate – Always has a great selection of the latest motion graphics work, music videos, and short films.
11. Swiss Legacy – Curated by Xavier Encinas, the site focuses on graphic design and typography. Everything posted here is worth a peek.
12. The Selby – Todd Selby's photos and videos of interesting people are so engaging. Love the hand-written interviews as well! If you check out the archives you will get stuck there.
13. Grafikcache – Another fantastic design resource, I like the minimal presentation (hooray for Courier!) because it really puts all the focus on the work.
14. TED – Ok I had to throw in one big site – Do not watch any of the amazing TEDTalks if you have a bunch of things to do.
15. Yes Yes Y'all – A music blog that has introduced me to more than a couple new artists and quite unique in that it's run by some guys with a real love of design.
16. Nevver – Brilliantly curated by Peter Nidzgorski, the concept is simple: A random film still and a random song (mp3). It's perfect.
17. Yewknee – Michael's site is a little dose of everything and is the antithesis to a lot of the other sites on this list. He doesn't just post pictures or links, he often adds a little blurb and voices his opinion (totally agree with his realisation that Donnie Darko was a fluke).
– – –
So there's the list! Feel free to leave a comment and cut me down (for forgetting your site) or butter me up (for next time)!

My 2 year old daughter only wants her mom for everything!
I'm a father of a 2 year old girl. She has me a little concerned. She is going through a phase right now were she only wants my wife to do everything for her. From changing her diapers to taking her to the pool. She even has a phrase for it, she says "mom do it!" and just won't let me. My wife is a stay home mom while I work about 40 hours a week . Although she spends a lot more time with her mom, I've always been a very involved father since her birth and do just about everything (except her hair, I'm really bad at doing her hair). I have been involved with just about everything with her. This whole thing honestly hurts my feelings a little bit and I don't know what to do about it. Your help is appreciated!

I'm going to try telling her Daddy in charge now, Mommy has to do laundry. I'll go downstairs and get something done. We'll see what happens. I can't be around right now when she's with Daddy. I makes everything really difficult for him. And I can't get anything done when she's with me. hhhmmm - one step at a time.posted 11/12/2011 by saxyub
I'm a working mom whos husband speds more time with our daughter than I plus she's in daycare.. She wants me ALL the time. Clingy! I need a break, but she freaks out and holds her breath when I try to walk away orwhen I make her go with my husband/Daddy. Maybe all little girls are like this at 2? We need to try something new.posted 11/12/2011 by saxyub
well this is so nice to read a dad who really wants to get involved and help out so good for you. My situation with my partner is the same we have a 19 month old and i am a stay at home mum while my partner works 40 hours. She screams for only me at night time when its time to go to bed, bath and feed her. He expressed last night that he felt rejected and hurt. I just know in myself that it will all change. Now is an age when they are just centered around their sole carer. As the grow older other things will become more important like going for ice cream and playing which is definetly daddys domain and that kind of bonding is how daddys girls are made! Don't take it to heart its totally normal.posted 07/07/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
I agree, it's normal. I'm a stay at home too. My 3 year old son is a momma's boy when my husband is at work, but the minute he gets home, it's like mommy who? What could help build a closer bond between the 2 of you is finding an activity or game that only you share with her. Me and my son bake and cook together - that's our special thing. My son helps my husband with handyman stuff, helps with tools and little things. That's their special thing.posted 06/14/2011 by imShadz
IT IS NORMAL! :p) I am a stay at home mom, too and my husband words a lot (military) He is very active in their lives- of course, but my kids are "mama's babies". My 3yr old is getting better at it- but my son, who is 11mo, wont even eat for my husband. Every child goes through a phase where they have a "fav" parent- this favoritism will change several times. Don't worry- you will get a turn!posted 06/13/2011 by Emkaed

So far we've introduced you to various members of the team here at Treffry towers but we thought as it's our birthday celebrations at the moment that we should introduce you to the main man, the organ grinder, the boss lady; or Poppy as we also call her!! So we put a few questions together, made her a cup of coffee (she always works better with a coffee inside her, but just one mind!), and sat her down to answer them!
What's the most memorable moment of the last 10 years running PT?
So.. Thanks Poppy for answering our questions! If you've got questions you'd like to put to Poppy Treffry then keep them in mind and keep an eye on our facebook page as we plan to host a live Q and A session with Poppy soon, details to follow.
And join us in a rousing chorus of 'Happy Birthday to us'!! (check out the picture below for a special birthday treat!)
