A CYCLIST was killed in a collision with a car near Bovington.
The 78-year-old man, believed to be from the local area, was cycling near Clouds Hill yesterday afternoon when the accident happened.
A police spokesman said the cyclist was in collision with a Mitsubishi 4x4 which was towing a trailer.
The car is believed to have been driven by a man from the Dorchester area.
It is the first incident in which someone has died on Dorset's roads this year.
The road at Clouds Hill was closed for several hours yesterday afternoon while specialist road accident investigators officers examined the scene.
Diversions were put in place and drivers faced delays as they were forced to take detours to avoid the road closures.
The road was re-opened at around 7.30pm last night.
Police were notified of the incident by South Western Ambulance Service Trust shortly after 3pm.
A spokesman for Dorset Police said: "At 3.10pm we received a report of a very serious road traffic collision near Clouds Hill at Bovington.
"Road closures were put in place at the Clouds Hill junction and the junction with the main road leading from the Bovington area towards Bere Regis.
"Emergency services attended the incident betwen Gallows Hill and Waddock Cross.
"The cyclist sustained serious injuries and was declared dead at the scene."
He added that the man had been identified and efforts were being made to inform his family.
Anyone who say either the cyclist or the car before the incident are asked to contact police on 101.
David Budd, who represents the Wareham ward on Purbeck District Council, said he was 'saddened' to hear the news.
He said: "It's very tragic when you hear of anyone losing their life in this way in an accident, but particularly at a time when people are being encouraged to use healthy, green methods of transport, such as cycling."
Last year a total of 29 people died in road accidents across the county.
In addition three people died last year in separate incidents after becoming ill at the wheels of their cars.
A motorcyclist died earlier this month near Bournemouth after a horse escaped onto a busy road, but this accident happened in Hampshire and is not included in the Dorset road death figures.
The horse was also killed in the accident on the A31 at Ringwood on Wednesday, January 22, which left another motorcyclist with serious injuries.

A WOMAN has been taken to hospital after suffering numerous bites caused by a neighbour's dog in Accrington.
The woman, in her 60s, was attacked by the boxer mastiff cross in Marsden Street while walking her own dog at around 2.30pm today.
The dog is expected to be put down with the permission of its owners.
Lancashire police said the injured woman had suffered bites to all four limbs, with some incisions going as deep as her bones.
Duty Inspector Conrad Tapp said: "It appears this lady's neighbours have been our repairing or cleaning a fence and they thought the dog was locked away. It wasn't.
"The woman was laid on the floor at one point with numerous bites. Our patrols attended and took custody of the dog in the back of a van.
"It has been taken to Aspen Valley Boarding Kennels and Cattery in Oswaldwistle and I believe its owners have relinquished it and it will be put down."
The woman was taken to Royal Blackburn Hospital. Her injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

Documentary Filmmaker to Present Human Face of Undocumented Immigration in Talk and Screening at Ithaca College
ITHACA, NY — Documentary filmmaker Luis Argueta will discuss and screen an excerpt from his latest film on Monday, Sept. 27, as part of Ithaca College's observance of Constitution Day and Latino Heritage Month. His presentation, "Crossing the Border: Where Does the Constitution Stand?" will be held at 7 p.m. in Textor 102. It is free and open to the public.
Argueta's newest film, "abUSed: The Postville Raid," tells the story of one of the largest, most expensive and most brutal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids in the history of the United States. On May 12, 2008, 389 undocumented workers were arrested by 900 heavily armed ICE agents at Agriprocessors Inc. in Postville, Iowa, the largest kosher slaughterhouse and meat-packing plant in the country.
Within four days, the vast majority of these workers were fast-tracked through the legal system, convicted of criminal charges and sentenced to prison. Families were torn apart and a community of great diversity was left in ruin. With the loss of approximately one fifth of its workforce, Postville continues to face a severe economic crisis.
By weaving together the personal stories of the individuals, the families and the town directly affected by the events of May 12, the film puts a human face on the issue of immigration reform and serves as a cautionary tale against abuses of constitutional rights.
Argueta is a critically acclaimed Guatemalan film director and producer. His 1994 film, "El Silencio de Neto," was the first submission from Guatemala in the foreign-language category of the Academy Awards.

Constitution Day is an annual observance held nationwide to commemorate the September 1787 signing of the U.S. Constitution. Latino Heritage Month is celebrated nationally each year to recognize and celebrate the culture and contributions of Latino Americans.

THE leader of Worcestershire County Council has admitted he is "extremely nervous" about a £280 million bid for Government cash - as D-day draws ever closer.
It comes as your Worcester News can reveal how an announcement from Whitehall over Worcestershire's biggest ever funding bid is due to be made public on Monday.
Back in April Worcestershire was invited to bid for fresh Government investment worth £2 billion a year - and in July a detailed 180-page dossier was sent to ministers asking for £280 million, which if successful would create 25,000 jobs by 2025.
It includes £63 million to dual the A4440 Carrington Bridge, £14 million towards improving careers services for young people, £50 million on M5 entrance improvements, £4 million towards better flood protection, broadband coverage and water supplies, funding for 1,000 new apprenticeships and an extra £4 million to develop Pershore College to make it a national centre of excellence for rural innovation.
There are more than 50 different projects in total which have formed the county's bid.
Cllr Hardman says he believes ministers will tell each of the UK's 39 Local Enterprise Partnerships how they got on for the first 2015/16 funding round next week.
"It appears that the results are going to be announced on (Monday) July 7th or around that date," he said.
"While we have been lobbying Government hard, I'm starting to become extremely nervous on the outcome of this and the delivery of cash into the county from Government.
"Certainly our MPs were flagging up that we were probably going to be successful in some areas but not in others.
"I think this will cause us to re-visit our 'open for business' agenda and in the autumn decide what is affordable and what isn't."
His comments were recently circulated to Tory councillors at County Hall ahead of the announcement.
Cllr Hardman told your Worcester News he has done his "utmost" to try and secure a good slice of the Government pie.
"We've been determined with this plan and all we can do now is wait and see," he said.
"It's the LEP's plan but we've been wholly supportive of it."
Peter Pawsey, chairman of the county's LEP, met Prime Minister David Cameron in Manchester three months ago to lobby him on it.

Pneumonia? What Pneumonia? (VIDEO)
Relax, Jennifer Lawrence fans. She's OK.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, thank you," the 22-year-old actress told Giuliana Rancic at the Screen Actors Guild Awards E! Red Carpet show on Sunday.
"I'm so worried everybody's like scared of me. I'm fine . . . I had pneumonia, and it's highly contagious."
Lawrence, who is nominated for a Best Female Actor prize at the SAGs, donned a gorgeous navy Dior couture dress for the big day, along with jewelry from Chopard.
"I'm starting to appreciate clothes," she told Rancic. "I didn't feel that way before, I had my brothers' hand-me-downs."
The Silver Linings Playbook actress made headlines over the weekend after her co-star Jacki Weaver accepted an award on the actress' behalf at the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts International Awards ceremony in West Hollywood, Calif. Weaver told the crowd that Lawrence had pneumonia and was "really sick."
Her co-stars and director David O. Russell sent their well wishes at the Producers Guild Awards, held on Saturday night.
The SAGs will be handed out live on TNT and TBS at 8PM ET/5PM ET on Sunday.

Management Tips of yesteryear to put to use in 2011. Some tips are
listed below that are worth a second look. The current and past
tips can all be found here.
It's been too long since we have been reminded to track our firm's
revenues by referral source, a prior tip from Leanna Hamill. Knowing how your
clients are locating you, whether it be word of mouth, former
clients, or various marketing media, will make it easier to decide
where to focus your marketing efforts. If you are not tracking your
referral sources already it is not too late to start.
It is everyone's goal to work more efficiently. Efficiency leads
to productivity. There are many tips focused on these objectives.
If you practice in the superior courts you have no excuse not to
have already signed up for access to the Superior Court docket. Many telephone calls to
the Clerk-Magistrate's Office can be avoided by checking the docket
at your office first. You can check on upcoming hearing dates,
filings, and even get a list of all or your appearances in cases.
If you have not signed up the instructions for doing so are here.
Using your software programs to their fullest capacity can be a
great time savings. There have been many tips about different
software programs and their use. Adobe's Acrobat is a popular and
useful program. Adobe Acrobat's typewriter tool may finally render that old
IBM Selectric you have been holding onto obsolete. Adobe Acrobat
has many other features that may help your practice depending on
whether you have the Standard or Professional version. You can use
it to redact sensitive information documents, add Bates numbering,
stamps, or even highlight and comment documents during review
without altering the original. Back in April we told you about a
great resource for lawyers using Adobe Acrobat: Adobe's
Acrobat for Legal Professionals Blog.
If you are looking for small ideas that may have a big impact on
improving your practice check out the Law Practice Management Tips

Hannah Rox Nails
Sally Hansen caught up with "Hannah Rox Nails" to get her tips on the nail art trends. She joined us for a Q&A.
Hometown: Atlanta, GA
Q When did you start creating nail art?
A I started half way through nail tech school about four years ago. Our teacher showed us very simple techniques on how to create flowers, and I was really interested in seeing what else I could create! I have always loved art, so I finally found my niche by creating it on nails!
Q What inspires you most in your designs?
A I get inspired by uniqueness! I try to be as unique as possible. Sometimes I just sit there and think of what I can come up with next off the top of my head! I love creating a design that is simple, easy, yet eye catching and fabulous! I love to be different!
Q What was the most challenging design you've done yet?
A It's between free handing Batman and Superman symbol nails, or the Earth nails I did a while ago! They are both pretty detailed and time consuming, but I loved the end result!
Q What nail artists do you follow on Instagram?
A Steph Stone, Madeline Poole, and Jin Soon Choi are some of my favorites!
Q What advice do you give to the contestants?
A Have lots of fun! Nail art is all about expressing yourself, and your own style, so go for it!

UPDATE: Artem Anisimov is on the ice with the third group. No sign of Marian Gaborik, who is supposed to be in this group as well.
UPDATE: Marian Gaborik is in the building, plans to skate with the fourth group and get his physical tests done later. Spoke about the services for Pavol Demitra (he wrote and delivered a eulogy) and about what a brutal summer it's been for him, among other things. Will have the highlights from that interview later.
Another slow day, with no pucks and a lot of tough skating.
Only news so far is that Michael Sauer did not skate again with his knee tendinitis/groin injuries. Marian Gaborik is expected to skate in the next group.
Here's the main interview from today.
Michael Del Zotto:
"It was a long summer of two- and three-a-days. It wasn't much fun but, I got to spend my whole summer at home with my family and it was good to catch up with them and just focus on myself and this upcoming year."
Didn't go back to Gary Roberts' camp. Stuck around here with Reggie Grant, the team strength coach, and "like I said, it was the best summer for me. Off the ice, it was a lot of hard work being out for so long. But I came into camp feeling confident knowing what I've done this summer and it's a great feeling to have right now."
Driven by motivation?
"All of it. All of it was. You talk to other guys and it's tough to work out on your own and not have a trainer with you. But I'm pretty self-motivated, especially after how last season went and what's at stake this year. It's a huge year for me, so the whole summer was just self motivation."
What does he need to show Tortorella:
"Just that I'm all business and I learned from last year. You learn from experience and I'm not going to make the same mistakes I did before, and I'm coming in here with my head on right and I've got to bring that swagger back. That's the biggest thing. I know everybody's been talking about it and I sound like a broken record, but when I have my swagger, I know what I can do and I can definitely fit in."
Were his mistakes on ice or off?
"Both. I made the same mistakes on the ice, and off the ice, hockey's No. 1 and that's all I have to worry about now — not worry about anything other than myself and the New York Rangers."
Changes he made:
"Just play every day like it's my last; and not take any practices or games off. Especially with Torts, you've got to earn everything. Nothing's going to be given to you. I'm not going to be given ice time because of how I played the first year, especially on the power play. I have to earn everything."
Did he need to be humbled last year?
"It happened. It definitely happened pretty quickly. Like I said, I learned from my experiences and learned from my mistakes last year. It's a whole different year and I'm a whole new person this year."
On Tortorella saying the demotion was an important part of the process for a young player:
"Yeah, it was definitely a lot less media down there and a lot less to worry about. But it was great for me going down. I remember my first game, we were in Norfolk, and I played 36 minutes my first night there. It was tiring, but at the same time that's the only way you're going to get your confidence and your swagger back. I was playing all situations, and it was the best thing for me."
On whether he sees a spot for himself on the PP with Brad Richards here to man one of the points:
"If I'm there, I think it's going to be a pretty deadly power play with Richie coming here. We all know what he can do and just skating in these unofficial skates it's pretty amazing to watch him play. Him teaming up with Gabby, it's going to be a pretty deadly 1-2 punch there."
Does Richards take pressure off him, and make him more of a shooter:
"Obviously every team does tape now and they know what's going on. And with another guy out there of his stature, and his ability, they're going to pay more attention to him and maybe give me a little more room to make some plays and it's going to benefit the both of us.
"Absolutely, and that's one thing I've worked on this summer is my shot. We all know his ability to pass, and if you get open, you know it's going to be on your tape every time. So, I think it goes both ways. Once they start playing me a little bit more, then him or Gabby are going to get open. It's going to be tough to cover all of us."
How long did it take to understand why he was demoted?
"Well, going down at first was pretty humbling. It was pretty frustrating as well, because I've never been in that position before. So it took a little time to get used to. As I said, the whole summer I was pretty motivated to get back here and show what I can do and prove I belong here."
Ramped up workouts, "As soon as I was healthy enough. Mid-to-late June. I wasn't cleared to do anything with my (broken) finger and sports hernia surgery. So the first day I was cleared to work out I started pushing my two- and three-a-days, and I didn't have much of a summer, but I know what's at stake and hockey's my No. 1 priority."

DRIVERS are being warned to expect traffic problems this week as the people get away for the bank holiday weekend.
This year's Whitsun Bank Holiday is likely to be one of the busiest on the roads in recent years as it coincides with the start of half term for many families, according to the AA and traffic information specialist Trafficmaster.
Although the weather presents a potentially mixed picture for the bank holiday weekend, the AA estimates that up to 17 million cars could be on Britain's roads.
On Friday afternoon and evening, normal commuter traffic will mix with those looking to make an early getaway, while on Saturday drivers can expect some serious congestion in many places as main routes struggle to cope as the rush to holiday hotspots gets under way from about 10am until early afternoon.
The AA's patrol of the year, Mark Spowage, said: "Whatever the weather, drivers should be prepared for extra traffic and possible delays on major routes to coastal areas and holiday resorts.
"Planning your journey and avoiding the main bottlenecks could relieve the frustration of sitting in a traffic jam."
"Preparing for your journey is important, especially if your car hasn't undertaken a long trip for a while.
"Just take 10 minutes extra to check the basics – oil and water levels, tyre pressures – check your handbook to see whether you need to increase pressures if you have a heavy load – and top up the windscreen washer."
Travel hotspots
According to Trafficmaster, the busiest roads are likely to be:
• M25: All sections, but especially both ways between Junctions 12 (M3 interchange) and 17 (M40 interchange) around Heathrow Airport and M4 interchange, and also both ways around the Dartford River Crossing (Junction 31-Junction 2)
• M1: Between Junction 6A (M25) and Junction 13 (Milton Keynes), also between Junction 25 (Nottingham/Derby) and Junction 31 (M18).
• M6 Both ways through the West Midlands between Junction 4A and Junction 11A, then also both ways between Junction 14 (Stafford) and Junction 21A (M62 interchange).
• M5: Whole length south-westbound, but especially from M6 interchange to Junction 8 (M50), and from Junction 15 (M4 interchange) to Junction 31 (Exeter).
• A303: Westwards from M3 Junction 8 through Hampshire, Wiltshire and Somerset to A30 at Upottery.
• M3: From Junction 2 (M25 interchange) to Junction 6 (Basingstoke) and from Junction 9 (Winchester) to M27 interchange.
• M27 and A31: From M27 Junction 4 (M3 interchange) westwards to A31 at Junction 1 then onwards to the Dorset coast.
• A11 North-eastwards from Newmarket Bypass through Elveden towards Norwich and the Norfolk coast.
• A30 and A38 westwards from Exeter into Cornwall
• M4 westwards from Junction 1 (Chiswick) to Junction 13 (Chieveley & Newbury) and also from Junction 20 (M32) to Severn Crossing and South Wales.
Mr Spowage added: "The roads are likely to be extremely busy and it could take a lot longer to get to your destination than you expect.
"As the bank holiday coincides with the start of half term; many people will have taken the whole week off and be looking to get away for a break to get their summer off to a great start."

Search through millions of records to find out more.
March 1922 — Kolbuszowa, Poland
Rozia was born to a Jewish family in the town of Kolbuszowa. Her family lived outside of town, near her uncles. The Susskinds owned a flour mill and a lumber mill. Their home was one of the few in the area with electricity, which was generated at their mills. Rozia had an older sister, Hanka, and an older brother, Yanek.
1933-39: In the early 1930s, the Susskinds' mills burned down. Hanka moved to Cracow to study in the university and married, and Yanek was working in Kolbuszowa's Jewish bank. The Susskinds could not afford to continue Rozia's schooling, so she was apprenticed to a seamstress. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Hanka and her husband returned to Kolbuszowa and fled to the USSR with Yanek and Rozia's father. Rozia, 17, remained in Kolbuszowa with her mother, who had cancer.
1940-42: In January 1940 Rozia's mother died. In 1941 the Germans established a Jewish ghetto in Kolbuszowa, and Rozia and her uncles were moved there. Like many in the ghetto, Rozia was put to work sweeping streets, shoveling snow and cleaning the homes of the Germans. On June 20, 1942, the Germans issued a decree: Kolbuszowa's Jews had three days to leave their homes and resettle in the Rzeszow ghetto 20 miles away.
On July 7, 1942, Rozia and her uncles were deported from the Rzeszow ghetto to the Belzec extermination camp, where they perished.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 15/11/2012 (1741 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Shortly after my daughter was born, a public health nurse dropped over on a routine visit. She was checking whether a pair of novice parents had their wits about them. She discovered I was witless enough to be putting my baby's diaper on backwards.
It was a rookie mistake made by a sleep-deprived woman with no experience handling someone who weighed less than seven pounds. One visit from the nurse and we were up and running.
But no amount of help given to Samantha Kematch could make that woman a mother. She had parenting classes, an in-home support worker, several social workers, lessons in how to grocery-shop and prepare meals, and a psychiatric assessment. She was watched, measured and propped up. The foster mother who cared for Phoenix Sinclair after she was born sent along photos of the wee one at play, a reminder of the sort of things babies like to do.
Kematch had support coming out the wazoo. None of it stuck.
The inquiry into the circumstances of Phoenix's death is proving to be slow, sad work. What's most striking is how ordinary the case of Steve Sinclair, Samantha Kematch and Phoenix Sinclair was to Child and Family Services workers. Two parents raised in the child-welfare system themselves, no preparation for the baby they were about to bring into the world, no prenatal care, a mother with suspected mental-health issues, a couple who were more or less happy to sign their child into care following her birth.
Just another day at the office for the CFS workers, and that's not a slam on them. The sheer volume of misery they witness must be staggering.
Social worker Kerri-Lynn Greeley testified Thursday about her brief involvement in the newborn's life. She had the file from May 2000 until early October, when she left the agency and yet another worker caught the assignment.
Greeley determined it was safe to return Phoenix to her parents, an opinion bolstered by reports from a staff in-home worker and observations by a supporter of the couple who worked for the Boys and Girls Club.
Greeley's memory of her precise involvement was spotty, as it well might be 12 years after the fact. Unfortunately, her notes were often incomplete too. "I don't remember," was her answer to most questions yesterday.
She doesn't remember whether she saw Phoenix with her parents once or twice after she was handed back. Once, for sure, at her office. Was she ever at their home?
"I can't recall."
One or two visits seems awfully light for a vulnerable baby handed back to parents with their own hair-raising CFS files. But she was within industry standards and she had other files.
This is not a criminal trial, commissioner Ted Hughes reminded us Thursday. It is an examination of the facts. Greeley let Sinclair and Kematch take their baby home on Sept. 5, 2000, despite the lack of a psychiatric assessment on Kematch. That condition was supposed to be met before they got their baby back. The defence Greeley offered Thursday afternoon was that the assessment was scheduled and these things take time to arrange.
True, but having a date set isn't the same thing as having the assessment in hand, is it? The social worker had been concerned enough about Kematch that she made the assessment a condition of the signed agreement between parents and agency. She had previously discussed Kematch with another psychiatrist and talked to her boss about the new mother seeing someone at the Women's Health Clinic for possible post-partum depression.
She was worried about this mother.
The goal at the CFS was to reunite the child with her parents. The couple appeared to be on track. They attended parenting classes, their house was clean, they showed up to visit Phoenix when they were supposed to. There were no signs they were drunk or high. When the psychiatric assessment was done, it said Kematch was not depressed or suffering from a mood disorder. Psychiatrist Gary Altman will take the stand Monday and presumably shed some light on that finding.
And so Phoenix went back.
In March 2006, Greeley heard about the child's slaying. She was on maternity leave. The child's name was familiar, she thought at the time.

This is the red carpet post. At 345pm my time I will post an additional post which can be used for the show.
424 Comments on "Academy Awards – Red Carpet"
Didn't like Stacy's hair nor George's, I would like him to shave, trim his hair, and dye it.
Someone mentioned G's dress. I saw her wearing a white one early on and thought of Taylor Switft's at the Grammys. Just saw a quick shot of G though.
KStew looked like she was on something and rolled out of bed, raked her fingers through her hair and got in the limo. Is it her pain meds? She was bouncing around making me nervous. Forgot who it was that presented with her – Radcliffe? – he looked terrified.
OMG, George Takei is right, Halle Barry does look like a Romulan.
I donated my hair, and it only took a year to grow back. It's 3/4 down my back now and I got it cut way above shoulders. It's totally worth it, and just think yours will grow back. It's an awesome easy thing to do!
I've so far only seen distant shots of KStew, but my first thought was, "Oh crap, is she pregnant?!" Someone please tell me it's just the dress or the crutches or my imagination.
BAK – had to get my snacks.
Speaking of KStew, I finally saw "Snow White and the Huntsman" last night and she was so wooden in it. She was horribly miscast.
Did anyone hear Kelly Osborne call Amy Adams Jessica Alba by mistake?
If the BI guesses are right, Amy should be thrilled.
@curly…CZJ would get taken DOWN by JHud's sister…I wouldn't have minded seeing that happen either…lol nice to see a bitch getting outed by herself and not a blind item…
@Smash I really like her necklace, after the Tiffany's sueing Costco thread that's all I think about when I see Tiffany diamonds.
Alright, I've switched to ABC and am moving over to the other thread.
It's been lovely, peeps!
Geez, Halle looks like she's going to take someone down tonight.
Kristen Chenoweth needs to calm the fuck down
Thx @Pink & @lotta, I wasn't sure who it was. Poor girl has really been through it.
Loved Naomi Watts, Stacy Keibler & Jennifer Garner's dresses.
I'm watching ABC coverage, Kristen Cheniwith is teeny tiny.
DDL is being interviewed, his wife looks over it.
Love me some DDL.
I think JLaw looks really lovely. The necklace down the back is a great touch.
@smash, too funny! WOW, has Jamie Foxx's daughter grown up! She went from awkward teen to beautiful young lady!!
Not loving Stacy Keibler's hair and George ios looking super old with that beard. Watching ABC now for a different prospective. Got to see Sandra Bullock's dress more closely and it's just okay.
Kristen Chenoweth is interviewing AnnE and apparently we're all going to be treated to "Les Miz" singing. Barf!
I hate the Hollywood look with the nose SO short on the face. It looks bizarro.
Laura- that must be vintage Tiffany. They can't make a patina like that and no you wouldn't be able to get vintage at Costco that's for sure. 🙂
I like Sandra's nose. It still looks strong and not too short. Very natural.
You're right re the nose jobs. I think Sandy may have had a recent "snip"…maybe she and Kimora got a two for one special.
Oh and it's Tiffany, doesn't she know she can get it at Costco?
Charlize Theron for best dressed, totes. God that woman can do no wrong.
I DO like Anne's necklace.
Kimora is the worst nose job out of the three pink 🙂 two thin on the top.
@V, Sandra has had as many nose job's as Anne and Kimora…Anne had the best surgeon IMHO…Only one I like out of the 3 (since Anne became insufferable) is Sandra though!
[email protected] I agree!
@Pink_Palace – I think she would pull my hair out!
Is it just me or did Sandra Bullock get a nose job?
"Unexplained injury" for KStew?
Ryan: What do we think of Kristen Stewart?
Kelly: She looks good…for her.
Lola it really is so pretty.
I think George Cloony only talks to Giuliana on the E! Carpet. Just a random thought.
Now Kstew! Why can't we bash her like Anne!!! She is aweful! Pompous!
The only dress that has really blown me away tonight is Kelly Osborn's dress.
@V, i would love for you to be there and sit in front of CZJ!!
Giuliana just said "no swan moments" it would be hilarious if she read this blog!
I think they invited K.Stew since it isn't fair to her that the Razzies aren't telecast, and she swept those awards.
Salma Hayek looks great!
Any hunger games fans here? Bradley Cooper is totally giving me a Seneca Crane vibe. The hair, the beard, oy.
Lola he is a greasy mess!!
Halle might be crazy but she is so gorgeous.
Mango I totally heard that!
Bradley Cooper has such amazing hair…why would he slick it back?
Yeah but I heard there was something more to it than the normal competition. Like they are making a point to seat them away from each other, so they don't even have to see each other.
Did anyone hear Giuliana say that Ben Afflect's facial beard has its own twitter account? LOL! It tweeted her a message before the awards, so I think she was hinting that it's really Ben behind the account.
Super OT, but I really wish I was a seat-filler at the Oscars…my hair has been in braids for the past few months and I undid today. My hair is in rare fro-tastic form. I would most definitely be a view-blocker!
I hadn't heard that, mistang, although that shouldn't count for anything.
Chastain and Lawrence are both up for best actress. So there is that competition.
The whole Bradley Cooper/mom situation freaks me out.
Also, Jennifer Lawrence is best dressed IMHO.
Selma looks hot!
So I have been out of the loop for a while (school stuff) but why is there is such a bad vibe between JLaw and Chastain? Did she really get mad at Jennifer for the SNL sketch? Sorry if I'm missing the obvious.

As a comment down below noted, I was remiss in forgetting to mention that FSU's Christian Ponder has a 3.7 GPA, got his bachelor's degree in two-and-a-half years, received an MBA this past spring and is now working on his second Master's Degree.
Last year, one of the more alluring elements of the Toby Gerhart candidacy was his very strong academic standing. If I recall correctly, he took something like 18 credit hours (maybe more) during the very same fall that he was pummeling defenses to the tune of 1,871 yards and 28 touchdowns. It's not easy taking that many units when you are a regular Joe Blow student pounding beer bongs in your spare time, much less hapless defenders.
It's refreshing to see collegians excel on the field and in the classroom. We are to the point now where even the pretense of being a student-athlete is roundly ignored. Look at the Seantrel Henderson saga. Here it is, mid-July, and he still doesn't know where he's going to school.
Putting aside for a moment the obvious and legitimate issues surrounding his previous signing, it's clear that college life and academics have zero bearing on his decision making. By mid-July, most college students have not only picked a school (many did so a year ahead of time), but have been to orientation, have their dorm assignments and their roommates, have met with counselors about their majors and reserved their class schedule. Wherever Henderson goes, he will not only be behind the curve when it comes to football (as he will have missed the opportunity to attend summer workouts), but also in regards to getting ready to be a student. But I guess all that is unimportant when the only clear goal is to stay nominally eligible for three years in preparation for the NFL.
I won't pretend that every athlete is cut out to be a scholar. Many of these guys would never get into the colleges for which they play and, truth be told, would probably end up delivering pizzas–or worse–if not for their physical gifts. I'm certainly a realist on the issue and have long called for athletes to be able to major in their sport–if a musician can major in cello, why shouldn't an athlete major in a subject related to his future profession? Why are we pretending that 220-pound running backs with 4.3 speed should be sociology majors?
But whatever the case, as long as you are going to college, you might as well at least try to be a real student and actually take part in college life and not act like a mercenary biding his time until the NFL–and adulthood–beckons.Powered by Sidelines

Tahs on top but who will join them in the finals?
And then there were nine. Which teams will make the Super Rugby finals.PT2M39S http://news.theage.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-3bp6h 620 349 July 10, 2014
Operation deny Matt Hodgson.
No Super Rugby player has pilfered as much or forced more turnovers this season than the immovable Western Force flanker and captain.
Brumbies skipper Ben Mowen knows it. And his team has specifically planned for it ahead of Friday's quasi-final at Canberra Stadium.
"Hodgson is obviously leading the competition with pilfers, so we've got to make sure we're denying contests there and not letting him in - because once he's in, he's good enough to turn it over," Mowen says.
"If we're good in that area, we'll come away with a good result."
Fortunately for the Brumbies they won't have to also budge burly blindside flanker Hugh McMeniman, who copped a one-week suspension for kneeing in last week's win over the Queensland Reds.
He'll be replaced by Brynard Stander.
"Losing players always hurts, but I suppose the Brumbies would feel the same way about Stephen Moore," said Force coach Michael Foley.
However the Brumbies will welcome back numerous Test players, including workhorse Sam Carter.
The once-underrated lock features in the top two for most tackles and rucks hit in almost every game he plays.
Mowen admits there's probably no team more important for Carter to return against than the breakdown-dominant Force.
"He's gone from a big performer for us to a man-of-the-match Wallaby," Mowen said.
Also returning for the Brumbies will be Test star Matt Toomua at five-eighth, while fit-again third string hooker Josh Mann-Rea will steady the set-piece.
The winner of the match is guaranteed a spot in the Super Rugby finals, while the loser will need to pick up a losing bonus point to have a chance of remaining in the competition.
That's easier said than done for the Brumbies, who haven't won a last round match since 2007 - their chokes against the Force last year and the Blues the year before costing them dearly.
The Force have listed Nick Cummins to play in what could possibly be his last Super Rugby match before jetting off to Japan, while former reserve Brumbies halves Zack Holmes and Ian Prior will be out to prove a point against their old teammates.
The game will also be Ben Mowen's 49th as Brumbies captain - equalling the club record of legend George Gregan.
Force: Jayden Hayward, Dane Haylett-Petty, Solomoni Rasolea, Chris Tuatara-Morrison, Nick Cummins, Zack Holmes, Ian Prior, Ben McCalman, Matt Hodgson (c), Brynard Stander, Wilhelm Steenkamp, Sam Wykes, Kieran Longbottom, Nathan Charles, Pek Cowan. Res: Heath Tessmann, Tetera Faulkner, Oliver Hoskins, Adam Coleman, Chris Alcock, Alby Mathewson, Luke Burton, Dillyn Leyds/Sias Ebersohn.
Brumbies: Jesse Mogg, Henry Speight, Tevita Kuridrani, Christian Lealiifano, Clyde Rathbone, Matt Toomua, Nic White, Ben Mowen (c), Jarrad Butler, Scott Fardy, Sam Carter, Leon Power, Ben Alexander, Josh Mann-Rea, Scott Sio.

|Cantieri di Pisa's Element — By Diane M. Byrne
— February 2003
Simple Pleasures
|Part 2: Another welcome feature: the size of Element's engine room.
The choice of wood is also quite different: limed teak. It's at once an understated yet sophisticated look--understated because the wood is not covered in coat after coat of glossy lacquer, and sophisticated because the block pattern and the prominent grains combine for an artistic effect.
Since this same look flows throughout Element, it was important to ensure that the furnishings and accessories didn't detract from it. Whether you look around the combination saloon-dining area, walk forward into the master suite, go down the stairs to the five guest staterooms, or walk up to the panoramic sky lounge, you'll notice that settees and chairs are covered in unembellished white fabric and that desks and end tables are architecturally simple pieces as well, stained black. Blinds in the saloon and sky lounge are thin and bamboo-like, not the customary wood slats or shades. In addition, you won't find traditional knobs and related hardware for doors and closets; instead, they're replaced by old-fashioned keys, which remain in place.
Even with all of this emphasis on simplicity, the design and construction teams did grace Element with a few imaginative touches. In the full-beam VIP stateroom below decks, for example, what appears to be just a solid bulkhead to starboard actually conceals an entertainment center. By pressing a portion of the limed teak at eye-level, the guest can unveil a flat-screen TV, which pivots out for optimal viewing from either the king-size bed in front of it or the seating area on the other side of the room. Because this room is so well-arranged, it feels as if it's larger than the main-deck master--although the master certainly doesn't feel cramped, particularly because it has an amazing ten feet of headroom (headroom is about seven feet everywhere else).
Another clever touch lies outside the sky lounge--or, to be more accurate, between the sky lounge and the sundeck. It's essentially a half-deck level, outfitted with a small seating area. The location makes it an ideal spot for enjoying breakfast or just private time. Element's transom is fitted with a large door for the tender garage; once opened, the door becomes a large bathing platform and is reachable from the main deck by either internal or external teak stairs. And despite what is traditionally found on many European-built and European-owned yachts, the crew's quarters--four cabins, a large dinette furnished with cooking appliances, and a separate laundry--are on par with what an American yard and American owner would want.
Another welcome feature: the size of Element's engine room. It's generous, particularly given the size of those on some Italian-built yachts. While there isn't walk-around access to the twin 3,700-hp MTUs, there is a separate, full-beam workroom just aft, something that's becoming more common on yachts in this size range. According to Cantieri di Pisa's sea trials last summer, Element achieves a maximum speed of 28 knots and a cruising range of about 2,000 miles on about 9,000 gallons of fuel.
While Jean-Michel Frank probably never imagined his style would be so admired decades after his passing, he probably also never imagined it would gain admiration beyond his country's borders. Similarly, the founding fathers of Cantieri di Pisa could never have imagined their small wooden boatbuilding operation would one day become an international player in the custom-yacht arena. Element shows how the unexpected can sometimes result in something everyone can appreciate: simple pleasures.

CS has python wrappers, right, but what happens if you make your own plugins in an external source tree and want to have that accessible from python?
This document tries to cover how you can achieve this and much more :)
First, you must understand the basics:
- You will need to generate a wrapper python module that understands your code.
- We use swig for generating python modules.
- There is some SCF specific stuff you must be aware of for successfully working with your own python plugins and python.
The basic procedure will be as follows:
- review what you have and what you want to do
- choose a name for your python module
- Create a swig .i file for your project.
- run swig on this file for creating the correct cpp file
- compile the module
Review what you have
You should have a set of header files from your project containing the information about interfaces or classes you want to wrap.
For this howto, we will use csextra repository as an example.
So.. under include/ we have a set of header files. Lets imagine only the csqt interface interests us, so basically we only want to cover that one.
Choose a name for your python module
You must choose a name for your future python module, in this case, we simply choose pycsextra, which seems informative and concise enough.
Creating a swig .i file for your project
Note this is not a full tutorial on working with swig, so only basics will be covered, for more info, refer to the swig manual.
As said in previous section, only csqt interests us in this case, so basic .i file would look as follows (note i removed some special stuff in the real csextra module we shouldnt need).
%module pycsextra %import "bindings/cspace.i" %{ #include "crystalspace.h" #include "include/qtwin.h" %} INTERFACE_PRE(iQtWindow); %include "qtwin.h" INTERFACE_POST(iQtWindow);
Now, lets go through these lines (almost) one by one and explain them:
%module pycsextra
This is just a declaration about your package name, also informs swig this is the main .i file for a package.
%import "bindings/cspace.i"
This makes your package "know" (but not wrap) all the types and mappings in cs python wrappers. Its useful in case your package deals with cs stuff like csVector3, or in case you inheriting from cs classes.
%{ #include "crystalspace.h" #include "include/qtwin.h" %}
Here, the lines between the brackets with percent symbol, go directly into the output cpp code generated by swig. Note you really have to explicitly add in this list any necessary headers, as otherwise swig wont add them itself, and generated code wont compile.
INTERFACE_PRE(iQtWindow); %include "qtwin.h" INTERFACE_POST(iQtWindow);
This is the actual place where swig is informed about our own types. We can use %include for each .h file we need to wrap.
The INTERFACE_PRE and INTERFACE_POST directives, are there to add special scf wrapping stuff, so that you can query your interfaces from python. Also adds mappings to handle correctly csPtr, csRef and similar for your interface. Note you should only use these on interfaces actually inheriting from ibase.
Ok! This is it.
run swig on this file for creating the correct cpp file
If you have a jam based build system, you can simply copy the jam files from csextra for your own project, otherwise, you can run swig yourself with a command similar to this one:
swig -python -c++ -shadow -I/home/caedes/SVN/CS//include -I./include \ -I./include -outdir . -o /out/linuxx86/optimize/plugins/pycsextra/cs_csextra.cpp \ ./include/bindings/pycsextra.i
Note 'cs_csextra.cpp' will be the generated code, 'pycsextra.i' is your input interface files, and the extra options for doing python wrappers, handling cpp and so on. If you are curious there is lots of interesting options for swig :)
compile the module
Again, if using jam compile system, adapting the files from pycsextra module should suffice. If using msvc, you can probably look somewhere how to compile the cpp and link it to python and crystalspace.
Using your python module
Should be simple, you just "import yourmodule". Then you can use your interfaces, for example for querying for a component loaded through registry, just use 'CS_QUERY_REGISTRY(object_reg_ptr,iMyInterface)'
The plugins/pycsextra/csextramod.cpp file
You might have noticed in cs python modules there is one extra file exporting an special function, something like:
CS_IMPLEMENT_FOREIGN_DLL extern "C" void SWIG_init_pycsextra(); extern "C" CS_EXPORT_SYM_DLL void init_pycsextra () { SWIG_init_pycsextra(); }
Interestingly enough, this is not really needed, but maybe you have to cope with it, i will explain the situation: the file is made to export an init_<modulename> function to the dll, this is already done by swig, but cs build system mangles this to look like SWIG_init_<modulename>. This is done like this so you can call the function yourself, but should not really be needed and hopefully will be removed soon. Meanwhile, be prepared to deal with this.
Declaring scfImplementation<>
Many times, constructs like this are used in cs classes:
class csPath : public scfImplementation1<csPath, iPath>
This is not a big problem to swig, but it wont wrap the template unless you explicitly declare it with a special directive. If you dont wrap it, the result is swig won't know about the inheritance here, so you loose the inherited functions or interface in the wrapper (so for example you wouldn't be able to use an csPath in the place where an iPath is required).
Dealing with this is simple enough, add the following to the swig file:
%template(scfPath) scfImplementation1<csPath,iPath >;
This basically tells swig what name to use for the templated class (only thing swig needs, really, and this is because the template notation is incompatible with most scripting languages).
Far and away
For more information, read swig manuals, look at cs, cel, csextra, csexternal swig files. They cover a lot of curious situations and can help you to learn more.

Framingham, Mass. -- TJX Cos. reported that its fiscal fourth-quarter profit rose 42% to $475.3 million, from $334.4 million a year earlier. The owner of Marshalls, HomeGoods and T.J. Maxx also announced plans to repurchase up to $1.3 billion of stock this fiscal year.
For the quarter, sales rose 6% to $6.7 billion. Same-store sales increased 7%.
"We enter a new fiscal year with considerable momentum in our business and are off to a very strong start in 2012," said CEO Carol Meyrowitz.
She noted that, with favorable weather patterns in February, same-store sales are trending toward a 7% increase for the month.
"Inventories are lean as we begin the year, which positions us very well to flow fresh spring merchandise to our stores," Meyrowitz said.
Net sales for the 52-week fiscal year were $23.2 billion, a 6% increase over last year. Same-store sales for the year increased 4%.
TJX increased its store count by a net of 46 stores, ending its most recently completed fiscal year with 2,905 stores.

Scotland booked their place at next year's World Cup as they sealed a nervy three-wicket win over Kenya in New Zealand.
Needing 261 for victory, Scotland were struggling at 169 for six before captain Preston Mommsen (78) and Rob Taylor (46no) pushed them to victory.
The pair put on 53 for the seventh wicket before Taylor, who scored his runs off 37 balls, pushed his side over the line once his skipper had fallen, with the key hit a six off Nehemiah Odhiambo in the penultimate over.
Opener Alex Obanda was Kenya's top-scorer with 89 as they were bowled out for 260 in exactly 50 overs.
The win ensured Scotland finished second in the Super Six qualifying table behind the United Arab Emirates, who beat Namibia by 36 runs.
Both will go forward to the 2015 World Cup, which will take place in Australia and New Zealand in February and March.

Welcome to WeRelate, your virtual genealogical community. We're glad you have joined us. At WeRelate you can easily create ancestor web pages, connect with cousins and other genealogists, and find new information.
Video Tour
We strongly recommend that you spend a few minutes taking our video tour. It provides a brief overview of how to use the features of WeRelate. A little time spent here may save you time later. There are also in-depth text tutorials available from the help button.
Create Webpages
The next thing to do is launch Family Tree Explorer, then select File in the Family Tree Explorer menu and give your family tree a name. You can either upload your GEDCOM or create person and family pages one at a time. To upload your GEDCOM, select File in the Family Tree Explorer menu and then click on Import and choose the GEDCOM file to import. The system will create an editable web page for each person and family in your GEDCOM. To create a page manually, select Add in the Family Tree Explorer menu and click on Add new person; enter the given (first name) and surname (last name), select Add, then fill in the blanks and save.
The Family Tree Explorer is a Flash application and will need to use some space in your computer to cache the files. That's computer talk for "If you store some ancestor page information on your computer, you will be able to view more pages faster. Otherwise, the system has to fetch each page every time you edit or look at it. This would make navigating your tree very slow.
Connect with other genealogists
You should always sign in when you are editing or adding pages. Use the signature button (second button from the in the menu bar above the edit box) to sign your comments on discussion pages. That way others with similar interests can find you. If you click on the blue user name on any page, you will go to that person's home page. You can leave a message on his/her Discussion page. The Discussion page button is in the light green second level menu bar above.
Shared research pages
Shared research pages act like specialized message boards. Be careful to use only one name spelling and one location in each field, do not abbreviate. Including postal codes and multiple spellings, names or locations in these fields will cause your pages to be improperly indexed. It will make it harder for your cousins to find your pages and work with you. For more information see Shared research pages.

If you deal in sensitive proprietary information, this professional portable audio jammer is the tool for you. Private conversations concerning government dealings, stocks, patents or simply personal information you don't wish shared can be kept between you and whomever you wish to share it.

"State of the Gulf—America's Sea" Video Documentary Airs Feb. 24-27
AUSTIN — The one-hour video documentary "The State of the Gulf—America's Sea" will air in late February on all Texas public television stations, taking a broad look at the Gulf of Mexico almost a year after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
The program will air at 8 p.m. central time, Thursday, Feb. 24 on most Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) stations in Texas, with KUHT in Houston running it the following weekend (see listing below). It's the fifth in an award-winning series of water resource documentaries produced by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and broadcast in partnership with PBS stations.
"America's Sea" will explore the rich diversity of the Gulf, its flora and fauna, geology and hydrology. The program will weigh the variety of eco-system services the Gulf provides to people and the various forces that threaten it, from hypoxia zones to hurricanes and oil spills. Critical habitats such as marshes and seagrasses will be examined, along with water quality and climate change. Viewers will also see how pragmatic regulation and active fisheries management has protected and enhanced marine resources for a sustainable future.
The opening segment of the documentary, "Burden of Bounty," gives an overview of the Gulf, its ecology and economy. The next segment, "Force of Nature," covers Hurricane Ike and earlier storms. The third segment showcases managing fisheries for the future, using redfish as a case study. Segment four, "What's in the Water" looks at problems like dead zones and red tide. The fifth segment, "Climate of Changes," features experts discussing sea level rise. The program concludes with "Action for the Oceans," showing viewers ways to help protect the Gulf.
The water documentary and 2011's awareness initiative were made possible thanks to support from non-profits, private companies and other organizations. Major sponsorship comes from the Friends of Harte Research Institute, Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority and the San Antonio Bay Foundation. The Nature Conservancy, Apache Corporation and Texas Monthly provided patron level support, and additional support was provided by Ducks Unlimited, Wells Fargo, San Antonio River Authority, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation and the Texas Wildlife Association.
The program is part of a broader TPWD conservation awareness initiative begun in 2002 with a series of special water resource issues of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine. The special issues have run each July, building to a 10-year anniversary water issue coming in July 2011. The communication initiative also includes Passport To Texas radio episodes, Internet and other components.
A companion website, Texas The State Of Water, will feature a preview of the documentary, links to additional information, and after the show airs, the complete program presented via streaming video and a complete written transcript.
PBS TV stations based in Dallas, Lubbock, Amarillo, Corpus Christi, El Paso, Midland-Odessa, Harlingen, Killeen, Waco and Austin will air the documentary at 8 p.m. Feb. 24. Stations in College Station and San Antonio will air the program at 9 p.m. that evening. KUHT-TV in Houston will air it at 3 p.m. Feb. 26 and 4 p.m. Feb. 27.

text: How important is hitting at the ss position when he's giving outs away? Nine errors already this year is hard to stomach even from one of the best hitting ss in the NL. I think the question is: Would the Reds be a better team with a ss hitting .240-250 and playing great defense or with Felipe hitting well, as he is, but just having to deal with the fact the he is going to toss one in the dugout or leave one in the dirt every fourth game or so? Right now still being upset from the game I'd have to a defensive ss would be best but I might not be completely objective at this moment.

A satisfying IT job that directly contributes to a company's growth is certainly one to hold onto. But all too often business decisions beyond IT's control can kill a good organization and drive off faithful employees. I witnessed a maddening example of this tragedy early in my career, when I was hired to help a small computer firm expand its PC business.
Our main tasks were to attract corporate customers and grow the service offerings. Working closely with the director of operations, I recommended we start with the basics, such as a PC staging area where we could customize both hardware and software for customers. Soon this workflow was running smoothly, and we moved on to other changes.
[ Some are bad habits to overcome; some are poor decisions forced by managers who don't know what they're doing. Here are the 10 practices of highly inefficient software developers. | Follow InfoWorld's Off the Record on Twitter for tech's war stories, career takes, and off-the-wall news. | Subscribe to the Off the Record newsletter for your weekly dose of workplace shenanigans. ]
To increase the service side of the business, we hired new techs and made sure all of them were at least A+ certified, with additional certifications from the manufacturers of the brands we sold. This part took a bit longer to work out than expected, but we proceeded slowly to make sure all was operating well.
As we continued to expand, we started to not only do repairs in-house, but also made onsite visits for customers who were willing to pay a bit more. We found that onsite calls could generate a lot of revenue without that much overhead, so we focused even more on our field support services. The number of techs eventually doubled.
By this point, two years had passed. Eventually I convinced the director of operations to boost the training of our techs so that we would have a few systems engineers. That way we'd have personnel to handle higher-level IT problems. This move, too, paid off quickly.
After another year, we were doing superb and our revenue tripled. We kept our field service overhead low, which continued to be the main source of profit. Customers were loyal, and we kept adding more companies to our list.
I eventually became the lead tech, and I felt like -- and was told -- that I was making great contributions to the company. The senior managers valued the employees, which led to a high level of satisfaction among the ranks. Things couldn't get any better for a tech job.
Of course, as they say, all good things must come to an end.

seriously, I pull up a chair, I open a beer (Troegs pale ale) and sit in the dark watching the smoke pour out in the beam of a flashlight. I don't smoke often, so maybe it's the thick layer of rancid grease on the interior that smells like heaven when it heats up?
nestled inside is an 8lb pork shoulder that should be done by six am when I put four racks of ribs in.
just tucked her in for the night....I trimmed the fat cap off, and put the shoulder on the rack fat side down...then put the trimmed fat on the top rack to drip.

If you are unfamiliar with this series and if you are a blogger, I promise it is worth your time. Each hangout takes place on Google+ and we help a newish blogger by answering their questions. Hangout #2 was Jessica from Mom 4 Real, and she had some awesome questions!
I have learned a LOT already from the first two hangouts. I'm lucky to be teamed up with Beckie and my brother Court. They are amazing. Here is video #2 if you missed it!

Hollywood star Liam Neeson is considering giving up his Catholic belief and becoming a Muslim.
The actor, 59, admitted Islamic prayer "got into his spirit" while filming in Turkish city Istanbul. He said: "The Call to Prayer happens five times a day …it just gets into your spirit and it"s the most beautiful, beautiful thing."
About the mosques in Istanbul Liam explained: "There are 4,000 mosques in the city. Some are just stunning and it really makes me think about becoming a Muslim."
Liam was raised in Northern Ireland as a devout Catholic and altar boy and was named after the local priest. Now the star — whose wife Natasha Richardson died aged 45 in a skiing accident in 2009 — is thinking of changing his faith.
He said: "I was reared a Catholic but I think every day we ask ourselves, not consciously, what are we doing on this planet? What"s it all about?
Liam also told that he was constantly reading books on God.
