Relativity Media Picks Up Joseph Gordon-Levitt's DON JON'S ADDICTION
Following its premiere at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, DON JON'S ADDICTION has been picked up by Relativity Media for a summer release, Variety reported today. Relativity reportedly bought the rights for $4 million, inking a deal for a wide release and a marketing campaign worth approximately $25 million.
CBS Films and Lionsgate/Roadside were reportedly in the war for DON JON, as well as The Weinstein Co., which bid around $2 million for the film. Their offer was shot down.
DON JON'S ADDICTION is the journey of a contemporary, porn-addicted Don Juan-type as he attempts to become less selfish.
Starring and directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, DON JON'S ADDICTION also features Scarlett Johansson, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Julianne Moore. Produced by Ram Bergman (LOOPER) and Nicolas Chartier (THE HURT LOCKER, Academy-Award winner for Best Picture), this is the first feature film written and directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt whose filmography as an actor includes the upcoming Batman trilogy conclusion The Dark Knight Rises and such films as INCEPTION and 50/50.
It's unclear at this time whether Relativity Media will order some editing on the film, which has received some raised eye-brows for its gratuitous nudity and sex.

can you make a baseball sized sphere fly by putting a fan-thing in it? How?
I got stuck with the base ball sized hovering flying vehicle without even thinking about the programming and electronics to make it voice activated.
Look at it this way - If I describe how a TV works (there are plenty of web sites that do so) could you make one?
It's not as easy as telling you how. Actually there are hovering and flying spheres, not as small as a bas ball though.
if you want to see one.
That's brilliant - And not out of reach of the hobbyist.
The control schema wouldn't be that different from a model helicopter but you'd be controlling spin with flap deflection rather than a tail rotor.
Slap together a Rx, two servos, a gyro, a brushless motor, a couple of LIPOs and a microprocessor and you're halfway there ;¬)
Certain helicopters use the turbine exhaust fumes to compensate for a single
power rotor and replace the little tail prop..
No (unless it's an RC helicopter like ice' says)

Austin Debate Thread #2
Debate in a nutshell, via LS:
HRC invoking Barbara Jordon and Ann Richards and what they both taught her when she was in TX in her first political job, registering voters.
Talking about health insurance…stop discriminating against sick people.
Take care of the Veterans.
I offer a lifetime of experience and proven results.
I think Obama has a cold or the flu…very nasal.
We are all feeling the brunt of the failing economy….predatory loan problem…people can't pay medical expenses and mortgage…citing different examples…and jobs shipped overseas…to China…devastating job losses….I'm meeting veterans and families of veterans..injured because of a war that should not have been waged. Senator Clinton and I have been talking about these issues for the last 13 months…some the same, some different, we both recognize that we have an administration that has made them worse. Washington has become a place where "good ideas" go to die, because of lobbyists who have a strangle hold on Washington. The central premise of this campaign is that we can push back on those people, lobbyists, who have come to dominate the government.
And somewhere, John McCain just thought, "Oh hell, they are talking about lobbyists. Think I'll get any questions about them tomorrow?"
(CHS notes: And I'm thinking about how much I miss Ann Richards, Barbara Jordan and Molly Ivins. Texas sure does grow some amazing women, doesn't it?)

menu servings: 4print shopping list
T o summer-ize a German-style fall favorite, cook pork chops on the grill and turn bacon-studded, braised cabbage into a lively slaw. This is a filling meal but if you want something sweet to end it, have some berries topped with nonfat Greek yogurt.
menu tips:
Chop Right
Chop Right
Cook the pork on a covered grill over a moderate flame, turning once or twice, until just firm to the touch, 12 to 15 minutes.A Fresh Twist
To make a crisp red cabbage slaw, cook the bacon as directed, reduce the onion to 1/3 cup and leave it raw. Omit the water and toss the remaining ingredients with shredded cabbage.

text: A 10 minute drive from Disneyworld (across from Gatorland) is Private Island ice cream, which hand mixes ice cream base to order then freezes it with liquid nitrogen. The flavor options are amazing. I had caramel (which is homemade) cinnamon cayenne pecan. My husband had double shot coffee caramel heath almond. The servings were huge and start at $5 (some ingredients are extra). This was easily the culinary highlight of our trip. Highlt reccommended and worth the drive. They also have toys, including hula hoops and a giant jenga available in the seating area to play with while you wait/eat. Thank you.

Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
Hi. I'm online and happy to answer your question today.
Is it possible for you to upload a picture? You can use the paperclip on your screen.
unfortunately i dont have any pictures on here to use
From what you have posted, I do not think you have to worry that you are suffering from some serious underlying medical issue.
okay, so why do you think they have appeared in the past couple of months? is that common?
It is not unusual to get dark circles around your eyes and slight changes in skin tone. In the absence of any other symptoms or problems I really would not worry.
Yes. It is common.
If you are concerned the best way to be 110% sure everything is OK would be to consult with a MD in person and, possibly, have some blood work done.
there have been various comments from friends and family suggesting that i look tired or ill etc
Do you feel tired or ill?
not really. sometimes a bit tired, but only if ive had a late night.
ive noticed that the cold has affected me a lot more this winter than it normally would and the darkness is more evident when its cold.
Then I would politely tell your friends and family that you feel fine but tend to party like a rock star......so you look tired sometimes lol!
Once again, that does not make me concerned that you have some underlying medical problem. Of course, you can consult Dr. Google and find all sorts of deadly diseases that fit your symptoms....that is why JA was invented so you could talk to a real MD with decades of clinical experience ;-)
So. What is the take home message? Don't freak out. I think you are going to live to see 29 without any difficulties at all.
Are you still there?
right ok. but it is just odd that its only just come about that was all.
you say perhaps a blood test?
It is a bit odd, but not uncommon...nor is it a sign of a systemic disease.
And a full exam by an MD. By doing this you would be 110% sure that, indeed, everything is OK.
right ok i guess that wraps it up then.
That being said I feel confident, given what we have discussed here today, that you have nothing to worry about at this point.
My pleasure. Have a good day.
I hope this information was helpful for you. But I do work for tips so I want to make sure you are happy with me before rating me. If you have another question on this or a related issue feel free to fire away. And please let me know if the rating system gives you any troubles.Thanks in advance,Dr. Rick MD FACS

For a film that is supposed to be subversive and rebellious and counter-culture, Tom Six's "The Human Centipede 2", his sequel to 2009's controversial "The Human Centipede", has been disgustingly mainstream. I mean, exclusive items from the movie have shown up on Yahoo!, Entertainment Weekly, and the New York Times, for God's sake. You can't get anymore "mainstream" than those outlets, folks. Give him credit, though: Tom Six sure knows how to milk (and profit from) a controversy.
In any case, for you British viewers who were looking forward to sneaking a copy of "The Human Centipede 2: Full Sequence" into your country without the authorities knowing it so you can then brag to your buddies that you have a copy of a banned film in your possession (thus making you way cooler than them and such), I have bad news for you: after taking the editing scissors to his movie, Tom Six has now gotten his sequel approved by the British Board of Film Classification, and as a result "Full Sequence" has been unbanned in the UK.
The cuts amount to 2 minutes 37 seconds of footage, which included "32 individual cuts to scenes of sexual and sexualized violence, sadistic violence and humiliation, and a child presented in an abusive and violent context."
Oh well, I suppose if you still really want bragging rights, you can buy an uncut version of the movie, sneak it into the country, and show it off to your buddies. I suppose that would work, too.
Here's what all the hubbub is about in case you've been living under a rock (or have good taste in movies and have been avoiding all our posts on this matter):

Base Metals. The most sensitive to economic growth. The Chinas of the world are going ahead with their global infrastructure build. China is building a 15,000 km high-speed rail network, which will require a lot of copper and metals to put in the ground. Nuclear power plants are under construction. Feels that once China and the rest of Asia picks up, this will bode well for base metal prices.

WBEZ News
A Decade On, Al-Qaida Weakened But Still Deadly
INTRO: One of the looming questions ahead of the tenth anniversary of the 911 attacks is just how close the US is to defeating the group that planned them.
Bin Laden knew the US would retaliate after 911.
So even before the attack, he began dispersing al-Qaeda.
He sent fighters home from training camps in Afghanistan.
He nurtured supporters in Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia and North Africa.
And he set in motion a series of steps that would turn al-Qaeda into a fundamentally different group from the one he started.
NPR's Dina Temple-Raston explains why it might be too early to declare victory.
TEMPLE-RASTON: If you ask terrorism experts for the one person in the US who has been tracking al-Qaeda longer than anyone else...
They invariably mention someone you've probably never heard of...
A small spectacled woman named Barbara Sude...
[Duration: 00:10]
TEMPLE-RASTON: Barbara Sude was tracking al-Qaeda for the agency for decades... long before the group became the brightest dot on the US radar screen.
So she's uniquely positioned to say how today's al-Qaeda is different from the one that attacked the US ten years ago.
And she doesn't see a defeated organization.
[Duration: 00:20]
TEMPLE-RASTON: Intelligence officials estimate there are about 4000 al-Qaeda followers around the world...
And they say today's al-Qaeda is younger, better educated, and more geographically diverse than the group bin Laden created 25 years ago.
[Duration: 00:24]
TEMPLE-RASTON: Al-Qaeda in Iraq, which seemed to fade after the US lead surge there, is in the process of trying to make a comeback.
Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is now the most potentially dangerous branch of the group taking aim at the US.
It already has launched two attacks — the Christmas Day bombing of Northwest Flight 253 and a failed cargo bomb plot last Thanksgiving.
And al-Qaeda in the Islamic Magreb — intelligence indicates it is helping funnel al-Qaeda recruits to Somalia for training.
All this in spite of the death of Osama bin Laden in May.
[Duration: 00:06]
TEMPLE-RASTON: That's Bruce Hoffman, a terrorism expert and professor at Georgetown University.
He says that al-Qaeda is clearly adapting to US drone attacks, assassinations, and recent arrests.
[Duration: 00:05]
TEMPLE-RASTON: Depending on how you keep count, al-Qaeda now has seven or eight locations — from Yemen to Somalia to Iraq to North Africa — where they can plan, train, and launch operations against the US.
In the run-up to 911 bin Laden had just ONE — Afghanistan.
And the number of groups embracing al-Qaeda ideology also seems to keep growing.
Just in the past month, al-Qaeda has shown up in Nigeria....
Military intelligence officials are watching for signs of al-Qaeda in Libya.
Al-Qaeda's ability to pop up where officials least expect it hasn't changed a bit.
And that's what keeps former CIA analyst Barbara Sude up at night.
[Duration: 00:21]
TEMPLE-RASTON: Which is exactly what her former colleagues at CIA are looking for in the run-up to 911.
Dina Temple-Raston, NPR News, New York.

Keep it real: Spend a week with our picks for 'interesting' reality TV shows
Not all reality TV is created equal.
Some network shows such as "The Bachelor" and "American Idol" have millions of viewers, grabbing tabloid magazine covers and social media headlines.
Others, however, play in relative anonymity on niche channels, where the lead characters rarely, if ever, trend on Twitter or grace a "People" cover.
I have screened Internet clips and episodes of a number of reality shows to help you get out of your television rut and find new or relatively unknown reality shows for your TV-watching routine.
I understand some know about these TV gems, but others may be thinking, "I would never watch a show about duck hunters or human parasites."
Read on to find out why you just might be wrong.
"Breaking Amish" on TLC.
From the channel that brought you Jon and Kate Gosselin, whose marriage literally unraveled before viewers, and Honey Boo Boo, the 6-year-old pageant princess of a show TV critic Tim Goodman called "awful and soul-crushing," comes this train wreck.
As the title suggests, the show is about five young men and women struggling with whether to break away from their strict Amish or Mennonite upbringing. To help them decide, producers took the quintet to New York City to experience work, romance and lifestyle choices in "the real world."
Because, you know, New York City is pretty much like the rest of the world.
The series is seven episodes in and previous episodes and clips are available at tlc.discovery.com.
In true reality TV fashion, multiple scandals and rumors about the show's legitimacy have surfaced since "Breaking Amish" first aired more than a month ago, so who knows what to think.
Potential lying and deceit aside, it's fascinating. These five young men and women are not actors and aren't famous enough to not really care what they say in a city where most could care less who they are. Besides, the show's subject matter is unique. Most people likely have little understanding of what it's like to grow up Amish.
"My Shopping Addiction" on Oxygen.
This show promises to be "an intimate look into the lives of young people facing a crisis brought on by a dangerous addiction to spending," according to the show's website, my-shopping-addiction.oxygen.com.
Personally, I'm not addicted to buying things I can't afford. I am, however, interested in the story behind the people who blow rent money on purses. It's dangerous, and probably more common than even I could guess.
In a clip online, producers showed an intervention with the character Heather, where she broke down with a profanity-laced tirade — bleeped out, of course — aimed at her friend for having the audacity to question her behavior because she's not going to use her money to sponsor an orphanage like Oprah.
Because, you know, apparently Oprah is the only one allowed to help people.
Shows like this leave you shaking your head, but just maybe they help people realize the danger of addictive behavior.
I didn't find any obscure shows I liked for this day. So use this time to catch up on episodes of other shows you missed from previous weeks. Or read a book?
"Duck Dynasty" on A&E.
This is my new favorite show. In fact, I could argue the first three minutes of the Season 2 premiere, "The Grass & The Furious," on Oct. 10, was among the most hysterical three minutes in TV history.
Don't believe me? Catch past episodes at http://www.aetv.com/duck-dynasty.
Essentially, "Duck Dynasty" is about the Robertson family, founders of Duck Commander. The company makes duck calls and duck decoys, which might seem ridiculously boring, but I can only urge you to watch an episode.
The dialogue is priceless.
The language is clean, and the family dynamic is refreshingly stable and strong. In other words, it's the opposite of most reality shows nowadays.
"Toy Hunter" on Travel Channel.
Jordan Hembrough is a renowned toy collector, and that alone is a reason to watch.
From Star Wars to Care Bears, Hembrough geeks out on all-things toys and is on a mission to purchase rare toys and sell them to collectors. Boy, there's a market for collectible toys or film props, based on the clips at, http://www.travelchannel.com/tv-shows/toy-hunter.
For example, Hembrough stumbles upon a rocket firing Boba Fett character from Star Wars in one of the episodes that was never mass produced. What?!! A rare Star Wars toy?!? That was basically his reaction.
Although collecting toys is not for everyone, there may be a sense of nostalgia in this show for people who remember what it was like to play with toys that are now worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Not gonna lie, I'm kind of upset my mother gave me Barbie dolls to play with instead of keeping them boxed up in mint condition.
"Four Weddings" on TLC.
Here is the teaser on the show's website: "What happens when four brides with four totally different styles agree to attend and judge one another's weddings?"
The answer? I'm watching.
For some reason, brides cast in TLC reality shows think they are most important people in the history of ever. Whether they are shopping for dresses or showing off their wedding rings, TLC brides are all sorts of catty and braggy.
In this show, they get to judge other brides with the winner getting a honeymoon.
Although "Four Weddings" started in 2009, and TLC bridal shows tend to be popular, I haven't heard much talk about this one. Maybe that's because people dislike watching strangers get married, or dislike the idea of brides judging other brides. No worries. These women volunteered to be on the show. Judge away.
"Monsters Inside Me" on Animal Planet.
The good news? This show is educational. The bad news? You may never eat or go outside again.
Since this show began in 2009, "Monsters Inside Me" has documented stories about parasites that live on or in humans. The shows include animated dramatizations of how the parasites work, which, honestly, is about as scary as anything on TV today.
The third season premiered Friday, Oct. 5.
"Yukon Men" on Discovery Channel.
I'm struggling to explain how equally interesting, shocking and empowering this show is particularly for people like me who cringe at the thought of spending one night outdoors.
The show follows the daily lives of the people of Tanana, Alaska, considered one of the most remote villages in Alaska. And, trust me, it is.
The people of Tanana truly rely on each other. I mean, they compete with wolves for food. Wolves!
They work hard just to survive, and the word "hard" might be an understatement. However, you get the impression that these villagers wouldn't want it any other way. Powerful stuff.
"Too Cute" on Animal Planet.
You win, Animal Planet. This show is pretty cute. After a long week of work, youth athletic games, episodes of "Yukon Men," whatever, relax with 60 minutes of nothing but baby animal videos.
Seriously. That's it. "Too Cute" is videos and stories about baby animals.
One warning: I don't suggest watching "Too Cute" if you are on the fence about buying a puppy or kitten because after this show, you DEFINITELY WILL.
Check your local listings or on screen guide for air times.

Gulfstream Aerospace said on Friday that its super-midsize G280 received a provisional type certificate from the FAA, some two months after receiving identical approval from the Civil Aviation Authority of Israel. According to Gulfstream, the principal remaining item required before the FAA and CAAI issue full type certificates is an update to the software for the twinjet's Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion avionics. Gulfstream expects to receive full type certification from both agencies this year.


text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OriginThe man who would become Effigy was born Martyn Van Wyck. His mother died when he was young, so he was raised by his alcoholic father. Martyn's poor upbringing made him a bitter and angry person and led him to constantly be in conflict with authority figures. Growing up, he wished to pursue a career as a musician, but he could never get a good start and wasn't even able to get small time work in the music business. One day, outside Seattle, Martyn was abducted and experimented on by aliens known as the Controllers in their attempt to make superhuman beings with the capability of replacing their current enforcement team, the DarkStars, and overcome their rivals' team, the Green Lantern Corps.Story ArcBelieving their experiment to be a failure, the Controllers decide to return Martyn to Earth. Typical of an alien abduction, Van Wyck only retained vague memories of the ordeal, remebering only dim bits and pieces. Six days later, Van Wyck was found in the middle a road, naked and confused. After a trip to the hospital, where he was told there was nothing wrong with him, Martyn met up with his friends at a coffee shop, telling them everything he could remember and what the doctor said about his health. When the owner of the coffee shop tells them to leave, Martyn lashes out at the man with a flame construct of an animal. Shocked but amazed with his newfound powers, Martyn comes to the conclusion that he can now do whatever he pleases with his newly manifested powers.When Martyn uses his powers again to assault a cab driver, he finds that he has transformed completely. He finds that his skin is now white, his hair has changed to an open flame and he had somehow conjured a red uniform from nowhere. He also finds that he has the power of flight. While talking with his girlfriend, Trace, she describes the images Martyn made in the flames as burning effigies. Martyn ,liking the word, takes the name Effigy and decides to leave Seattle and Trace behind. Tired of being pushed around and believing his powers were his way of pushing back, he considers his life as Martyn Van Wyck now over, with only Effigy to take his place.Martyn then traveled to Hollywood, wreaking havoc where ever he could, just because he could. Catching the attention of Green Lantern Kyle Rayner, the two soon battle. After fighting and an almost assured victory for Kyle, Effigy is once more abducted by the Controllers, finding that he is, in fact, a success and continue their experimentation upon him. The Controllers continue experimentation upon Martyn and others makes them completely obedient to the Controllers, but leaves them mindless soldiers, lacking in individuality, imagination and will, meaning they are no longer much competition for the likes of heroes like Kyle Rayner.Eventually, Martyn made his way back to Earth and even started a brief relationship with Louise Lincoln, the second Killer Frost. The two conspired to take down their common foe, Kyle Rayner. The relationship was doomed to fail, as Louise felt that she knew more about taking on superheroes and felt that she should be in charge and Martyn still apparently had issues with authority. Their relationship ends when Louise becomes buried under her own ice and Martyn decides to run away instead of help her escape.Martyn is next seen when is discovered by the original Green Lantern Alan Scott's daughter, Jade, and is shown to have developed schizophrenia. Due to this new condition, he develops three new personalities, named Torch, Blaze and Ember, who manifest themselves in the form of Martyn's flame constructs. After Kyle Rayner and Jade defeat these personalities, Martyn agrees that he should go back to prison and receive help.Effigy was one of the villains stranded on planet Salvation. He would choose to join the Joker's Camp at Salvation. The Spectre killed him for his part in the death of the Martian Manhunter by melting him into oil, trapping him in a Green Lantern-like lantern and then setting fire to his now oil body. He was still alive in this state and aware of what was happening.

Killeen Daily Herald
Local financial leaders Tuesday reported seeing no ripple effects from the current Wall Street woes damaging financial institutions here, and a veteran certified financial planner advised anyone with a beleaguered portfolio to get to a financial adviser now and make sure to diversify investments in the future.
Already this week, Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc., has filed for bankruptcy, and Merrill Lynch & Co. faced a forced sale to Bank of America. American International Group, Inc., the world's largest insurer, has been seeking emergency funding.
Greater Killeen Chamber of Commerce president John Crutchfield said he had not heard of any local institutions having trouble as a result of the New York tremors but said, "I imagine a lot of people everywhere are going to see a dip in their 401(K)'s for a while."
First Texas Bank president Patton Kaufman, who is also outgoing board chair of the GKCC, said, "These developments probably won't affect us all that much. These businesses will be shored up either by sales or by government aid, and it should bolster public confidence that our government is strong enough to prevent catastrophes in either the short or long terms.
"I think we'll come out of this with new leaders in the financial industry."
He said he believes the migration from economically afflicted areas of the country will accelerate "because Texas institutions are regional, not national, and they're well-grounded. They've followed the rules of prudent operations." He said he thinks Bank of America, which bought Merrill Lynch, became a giant because it's one of the national firms that followed the same rules. "They never went out on a limb with questionable lending or other practices," he said.
Peter Beronio, a local certified financial planner with Mutual Service Corp., said, "I don't think the crisis is over, but I don't think it's due to widespread instability in the credit markets. All the firms affected were participating heavily in subprime mortgages and the like.
"I'm sure it's all perplexing to the average person, but that points to the importance of well-managed portfolios with broad diversification," Beronio said. "You need to be well-advised and comfortable with what you have. If you calm down and get help with it, you can make sure it will do what you want. For most people, that means building retirement income."
He said he's sure the crisis will lead to tighter lending standards and that regulation will be intensified. "That's really long overdue," he said. "Most major institutions are already making changes on their own. For too long, too many lenders have been letting verification of income go undocumented, when they should have it on everything from car loans to home loans. We've had ridiculously easy lending standards. But we fix things pretty quickly compared with other cultures in the world."
Beronio said letting market standards prevail will be an essential part of the correction. "There will be more people out of work, more foreclosures and so forth. It sounds harsh, but it's necessary to let the market correct itself. Ultimately, we'll be better off because of tightened standards governing the operation of our financial system."
He said he's been seeing some people locally who have too much invested in volatile holdings. "You should never be overconcentrated anywhere," he said. "Few people understand the market, so they should have good advice on how to guard against heavy losses."

Waves Women's Soccer Looks to Defend WCC Title as They Forge Their Own Path in 2012
Pepperdine opens the 2012 season on Friday against San Diego at Tari Frahm Rokus Field
Aug. 14, 2012
MALIBU, Calif. - Coming off of arguably the best women's soccer season in school history, the 2012 team has the opportunity to build on that success and become Pepperdine's first repeat West Coast Conference champion in soccer but also begins the season with a sense of unfinished business when it comes to the NCAA Tournament.
Entering his 15th season, head coach Tim Ward said, "Our goals this season are to become the first team ever to repeat as WCC champions and return to the NCAA Tournament and go further than last year--in fact, further than we have ever gone. Each season is independent of the season that came before, and we are ready to make our own mark."
The Waves lost three key starting senior leaders to graduation from last year's team in Laura Cole (Whittier, Calif./La Habra HS), Myriah Stockman (Sandy, Utah/Brighton HS) and Karissa Garcia (Roseville, Calif./Oakmont HS). However, they return 20 student-athletes, including the 2011 WCC Freshman of the Year in Lynn Williams (Fresno, Calif./Bullard HS) and goalkeeper Roxanne Barker (Irvine, Calif./Woodbridge HS), fresh off the Olympics with the South African National Team.
"Even though we only lost three players, it feels to us like a completely different team. It definitely has a different, different feel. With Laura Cole, Myriah Stockman and Karissa Garcia having graduated, obviously tremendous soccer players who were reliable and played many minutes for us, that leaves us with a significant gap," Ward explained.
"We are looking to fill those spaces. One of the things that made the team so great last year is that we basically had the same lineup. We had a lot of durability. Consistency for any team is highly important. This team is very talented. It is a different team in terms of where our strengths and weaknesses are, but I think we are capable of equal, if not better things," Ward explained.
The Waves return all but one player from last season's defensive unit that held the competition to a season-low 0.57 goals against average.
Barker returns to anchor the defense in goal and comes into this season with the experience of playing on the national stage as an Olympian.
"Roxanne is an Olympian. She has had experiences over the past six months that few athletes will ever have in a lifetime," Ward said. "We have no doubt that that experience will carry over to our season. She has always been a great goalkeeper, but now she is literally world class. She has a great international career ahead of her, but before that, we look forward to her having a great senior year."
Kelsea Smith (Camarillo, Calif./Oaks Christian), a fifth year senior, will be "the anchor of the back row," according to Ward. Smith brings a lot of experience to the team and will be looked to as a leader for this year's club. She will be joined by junior Kristin DeGrandmont (Portland, Ore./Jesuit HS), who has also logged a lot of minutes in defense during her career.
As a wide defender, junior Michelle Pao (Cupertino, Calif./Monta Vista HS), who was just recently named to the 2012 MAC Hermann Trophy Award watch list, will shut down attacks on the outside as well as mount attacks out of the back.
On Pao, a 2011 NSCAA All-American second teamer, Ward said, "Pao is coming off a great summer with the Pali Blues and I think she gained so much match experience and sharpened some aspects of her game."
One hole the Waves will have to fill this season is wide defensive back, due to the graduation of Stockman. According to Ward, the Waves have a few different options, including redshirt freshman Courtney Assumma (Temecula, Calif./Temecula Valley HS), Jackie Pedrazza (Cupertino, Calif./Monta Vista HS), Nikki McKee (Walnut, Calif./Walnut HS) and Micaela Cervantes (San Diego, Calif./Mission Bay HS).
"I think that in the back, I believe our back row could do a really good job. We will still be able to mount attacks out of the back through Michelle Pao, but on the other side we may get more of a stay at home defender, that may help us to be even more water tight defensively," said Ward.
"Courtney Assumma had an amazing spring and she is very capable," Ward explained. "Jackie Pedrazza looked very strong in the spring as well. Nikki McKee is super athletic, competitive and is a competent player. Micaela Cervantes played as a wide back in the spring and was very solid in the position."
Another piece for the defense is redshirt freshman Lisa Santroch (Shoreline, Wash./Shorewood HS). Santroch, one of the most athletic players on the squad, has a knack for stepping in and destroying any rhythm teams may get. She has the potential to play key roles for the Waves on defense this season as well.
In the midfield, the Waves lost two of three reliable midfielders in Cole and Garcia. However, the Waves do return Katie Gallanes (Yorba Linda, Calif./Esperanza HS) and Ana Pontes (Houston, Texas/Clear Lake HS), both of whom logged key minutes for the Waves in 2011.
On the midfield, Ward explained, "Pontes and Gallanes are very impactful players in the central midfield. Cervantes can also play any of the midfield positions. She is very competent and hard working. Pontes, Callie Payetta (Huntington Beach, Calif./Huntington Beach HS), Jennifer Karson (Frazier Park, Calif./Frazier Mountain HS), and Katie Rivers (Vancouver, Wash./Mountain View HS) will be senior midfielders for the Waves. All four seniors look poised to have their best seasons ever for the Waves. Rivers is a natural final passer of the ball and can deliver an excellent ball. She has a lot of the tools to be a great central midfielder in our system. Karson is free kick specialist and in the final third she has great soccer savvy. Payetta is a natural goal scorer and has come back stronger than ever." Waves fans will see sophomore Kristine Hilliard (North Ogden, Utah/Weber HS) in the midfield in 2012 as she is learning to play transitional center midfield.
"She is an excellent runner, very bright and a natural leader. She is gaining experience in the position, as she appeared most at forward last season," Ward said.
At forward, the Waves return a strong core of goal scorers in Williams, Anisa Guajardo (Clovis, Calif./Buchanan HS), Ally Holtz (Honolulu, Hawai'i/Punahou School) and Amanda LeCave (Windsor, Calif./Windsor HS). This group shared the bulk of the minutes at forward in 2011, and look for much of the same in 2012.
Williams had a stellar freshman season, collecting WCC Freshman of the Year honors, and over the summer played for the Pali Blues, where she was named W-League Rookie of the Year after scoring 10 goals in 11 games.
A senior, Guajardo is the team's returning leading goal scorer. She tallied nine goals and added four assists. Returning forwards account for 19 goals scored last season.
On the forwards, Ward said, "What can I say about Lynn Williams. She is an excellent talent and we are looking for her to have an excellent season. Guajardo is a tremendous goal scorer and is natural in front of the net. LeCave is very hardworking, crafty, deceptive striker. Ally Holtz is ridiculously talented and we are expecting big things out of her."
Redshirt freshman Bri Lariviere (Camarillo, Calif./Camarillo HS) is set to also contribute this season as a forward. She scored three goals in the spring and brings to the squad a lethal finishing ability.
Ward and his staff of associate head coach Twila Kaufman in her ninth season and fifth-year assistant coach Jennifer Brewer put together an outstanding freshman class that will look to make an impact this season.
Erinn Middo (Redondo Beach, Calif./Redondo Union HS) is set to be the backup goalkeeper for Barker. On Middo, Ward said, "She has great energy, intelligence, work ethic. There are some areas in her game that she will continue to get better at, but she is very coachable. I think she has a very bright future."
Mandy Davis (Danville, Calif./San Ramon Valley HS), a defender, is poised to make an impact right away and is an option for Ward and his staff to start as an outside defender.
"Physically she is a strong, young woman and isn't going to have an issue with the physicality of the college game," Ward said. "She is also very good in the air as she reads the ball well."
Additions at midfield include Kelsey Blosser (Thousand Oaks, Calif./Oaks Christian) and Allyn Brown (Lake Arrowhead, Calif./Rim of the World HS). Both freshmen have a natural understanding of the game.
At forward, Rylee Baisden (Yorba Linda, Calif./Esperanza HS), Taylor Vargo (Los Alamitos, Calif./Los Alamitos HS) and Bianca Deardorff (Westlake Village, Calif./Oaks Christian HS) will join an already talented group. Baisden is an explosive player, while Vargo is gifted as a great playmaker. Deardorff brings an excellent work ethic and a deceptive, efficient finishing ability.
This year's team is led by an outstanding group of seven seniors. According to Ward, the senior group really emerged this spring and they are "Forging their own path as each girl is stepping up to lead in her own way."
Ward greatly values senior leadership, as he explained, "Your team goes the way your senior leadership goes. One or two seniors need to show the way for the rest of the group and I think this year's group is more than ready to do that."
That senior leadership will be needed to guide the team through a tough schedule, which includes perennial national powers UCLA and Boston College on the road.
"We want to test ourselves against the best in the country," Ward said. "Last year, I am proud to say a lot of games went our way. We know that only happens if you put yourself out there against those teams and if you work hard and work smart."
"I think our schedule this year is deceptively vicious. I think everyone on our schedule could beat anybody in the country on any given day. Some teams may not have the national recognition that they deserve, but I put them on the schedule because I trust those coaches to beat anybody. If we show up and we bring our very best, I think we can beat anybody in the country. I want a schedule that challenges and grows our team. We want to play the best in the country every year. That excites me as a coach and excites our players."
Following a stellar season, the Waves know the expectations are high, as they are ranked No. 10 in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America preseason poll. The team is ready to answer the bell this year and hope to soar higher than ever before.
"We want to start becoming a dynasty in our conference. We feel like it's our time," Ward said. "Every day we show up and our goal is to put more numbers on our fence through more WCC titles and more NCAA appearances. We know that takes dedication and hard work. That is what we are about."

why man?
salad fingers is da bomb and all, so i can see why you would want to make a spoof. but this was bad. not very funny at all. kinda pointless and too much gay humor. i see enough gay guys as it is. i don't want to watch em in flash. pretty alright tho.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
People are being WAYYYY to harsh
It wasnt the best movie and you didnt use original characters, but so what? People need to not take their beloved Salad Fingers so seriously. I think its great that people parody it. Great movie always need to be parodied in my opinion. You guys are just angry he's making fun of Salad Fingers, so get over it.
Rated 0 / 5 stars
This sucks!
I'm sorry but there's no way this could be redeemed. It was just that bad. The graphics were unoriginal. The whole conncept was just... Awful! You've taken a really beautiful thing and destroyed it.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Yuck, pen0r suxx0rz. otherwise it was ok
Rated 0.5 / 5 stars
I knew I wouldn't like this by the preloader. A spoof is, by definition, unofficial. I think it's strange that Salad Fingers has really garnered so much attention that these retarded spoofs get made, but I digress. Basically all the graphics are stolen from this, and I don't know much about whistle-blowing, but this may qualify. It's 12 year old humor, and even then, 12 year olds should be ashamed to be amused by this. I've seen worse stuff lately, but since this Salad Finger spoof thing is catching on, at least try a lot harder than dick jokes.

I don't believe for a second that Hammond didn't get bullied into this move by Herb Kohl.
Kohl gave him a hard line directive to execute this type of a move and this is what Hammond could get done.
Blame it on his negotiating skills for the actual pieces, but he was put down this path by Kohl.

Kolkata: Having already lost star batsmen Kevin Pietersen and Jesse Ryder to injuries, the Delhi Daredevils (DD) may now miss dashing opener Virender Sehwag, down with a back problem, too in the Indian Premier League (IPL) opener against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) here on Wednesday.
"Sehwag is down with back spasm and is yet to arrive in the city. He is likely to come today and if and when he comes, we will take a call on playing him for Wednesday's game," coach Eric Simons told the media after a practice session at the Eden Gardens here Tuesday.
The Delhi side will also have to do without the services of South African pacer Morne Morkel, who is busy playing domestic cricket back home. Despite the loss of some key players, the Mahela Jayawardene-led side remain unfazed and are banking on youngsters and the domestic players to come good.
"Of course, the unavailability of our key players is a big loss but IPL is all about crisis management. The loss of players has provided a massive opportunity to the youngsters and domestic players and we have an exciting bunch of them," said Simons.
Delhi team management was also pinning hopes on pacer Umesh Yadav and seasoned performer Irfan Pathan, both of whom are in "great form".
"KKR are a good side and being the defending champions they are confident. But then this is a new season and our players have looked very good at the nets and we are looking forward to transform that on to the field," added Simons.

Some of the undocumented immigrants arrested in San Rafael and Novato this week may have been deported the same day, a federal immigration official said Thursday.
As federal immigration officers returned to San Rafael for a third consecutive day Thursday, the picture of what happens to the people they arrest became clearer.
Police were notified that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents would be making arrests near the downtown area of San Rafael on C Street between 7 and 8 a.m., said police spokeswoman Margo Rohrbacher.
Novato police Chief Joseph Kreins said he was not contacted by ICE Thursday and knew of no arrests in Novato since Wednesday.
ICE is the largest investigative branch of the Department of Homeland Security. The arrests are part of Operation Return to Sender - an ambitious initiative launched by the Department of Homeland Security in June 2006 to identify and arrest undocumented immigrants who have been ordered deported.
ICE officials have declined to say how many people have been arrested in Marin since the organization began its raids on Tuesday. ICE told San Rafael police on Tuesday that it had warrants to arrest 30 undocumented immigrants. It is difficult to say how many people have been detained because ICE also arrests other undocumented immigrants it identifies in such raids.
Between Oct. 1, 2006, and Jan. 26, ICE arrested 838 undocumented immigrants in Northern and Central California, ICE spokeswoman Lori Haley said. More than a third of them, 338, were taken into custody in the process of pursuing the other 500, whom a judge had ordered to be deported. Since Operation Return to Sender began, ICE has made more than 18,000 arrests nationwide.
On Thursday, Haley provided some information about what happens to people after they are arrested. All those apprehended initially are taken to ICE's facility at 630 Sansome St. in San Francisco for processing. After that, Haley said, the procedure differs depending on whether a judge has previously ordered the arrested immigrant be deported.
If there is no deportation order pending against the individual, ICE offers the person the choice of signing an agreement that commits them to leaving the country voluntarily. Once they sign the agreement, they are released.
Haley said, "A lot of people take voluntary departure so they can legally (re-enter) the country if they so choose. It's not a deportation."
But immigrant advocates take a different view.
"My understanding is that people are being offered things to sign that are basically giving up all of their rights, period. It could affect their immigration status in the future," said Paul Cohen, executive director of Legal Aid of Marin.
"Many times, they intimidate people into signing these voluntary departure agreements," said Evelyn Sanchez, a spokeswoman for the Bay Area Immigration Rights Coalition in Oakland. "What they're doing is expediting the deportation of immigrants without any due process procedures whatsoever."
If the arrested immigrant has an outstanding deportation order or a criminal conviction, they are typically kept at nearby county jails while they await deportation or further judicial review. Sanchez said anyone arrested should receive a new hearing because their residency status may have changed since the deportation order was issued.
Haley, however, said these people have already received due process. Jails that have been used include the Santa Clara County Jail, the Santa Rita County Jail in Dublin and the Yuba County Jail in Marysville, Haley said. Family members of those arrested can call 844-5526 to find out where their loved ones have been sent. But some immigrants are jailed farther away.
But some immigrants are jailed farther away. Some are sent to an ICE facility in Eloy, Ariz., Sanchez said.
"That is literally the layover before you get deported to your country of origin," Sanchez said.
"People can be sent to any of our facilities if they're being held in custody, anywhere in the country," Haley said. "It depends on bed space."
Haley said ICE has detention facilities in Texas and Arizona where families, including children, are housed together.
"In some cases, if there is a deportation order pending against an immigrant, the person is transported out of the country the same day they are arrested," Haley said.
"Many times, Mexican immigrants are bused to the border," Haley said. "They can also be taken by plane. We have planes that go to various places. It isn't just to the southern border. People are deported back to countries all over the world."

Vanguard Battles
Vanguard Battles
Get out of Jones: As a graduate of Jones High School who grew up in the neighborhood, attends church, volunteers and mentors many of the students in the neighborhood, I am appalled with the reporting of the situation that is going on at Jones ["The Great Divide," by Margaret Downing, March 7].
We are having a lot of problems with infighting and the Vanguard Parent Organization members who have caused a drastic decline in trust and morale in the school and community. The reported division and accusations are over 25 years old, not just two and a half.
The article that you ever so one-sidedly presented only heightened resentment and added fuel to the fire. It did not report that many from Jones High, not Vanguard, have gone on to graduate from universities. Jones was successful before Vanguard and will continue to be successful when Ms. Udden and Mr. Wilson get their segregated way.
Upcoming Events

TicketsMon., Dec. 25, 3:30pm
After investigating, I find that both of them have made it a personal -- not academic -- matter to have Mr. Allen removed as principal. I question their motives and agenda for what is best for Jones High as a whole.
Contrary to their personal beliefs, James Simpson is not the answer; every lobbyist needs its token. His academic credentials are impressive, but what are his social credentials?
Not a single HISD administrator has addressed the PTO or Jones Alumni Association since this began. I cannot with a clear conscience recommend the Vanguard Program because of the socioeconomic education it is teaching and its leadership of the VPO and South Central District office.
The battle is not between VPO and the local community; it is between right and good.
Keith A. Perry
Bring back Pace: It is with great sorrow that I read about the growing divide at Jones High School. We were always proud to call ourselves "The Jones Family."
We had problems in my time as well, but I always felt the administration and then-principal Arthur L. Pace were friendly, receptive and approachable.
I would think that the Vanguard parents and students are probably more demanding on school administration than most. When I started school at Jones (in '81-'82, the first freshman class), I had the chance to go to school with the children of some of our area's leaders and with kids who would certainly be leaders -- the kind who work, not wait, for change.
Perhaps Mr. Pace should be brought back to Jones. I can remember him speaking in the assembly hall to the students, saying, "We care about you this much. I hold my arms straight out, reaching into infinity."
Charles H. Carter Jr.
All in the Family
Yates needed help: You pointed out several possible outcomes other than the Yates children being murdered ["Otherworldly," by Margaret Downing, February 28]. It's a shame no one in Andrea's life had the sense to get her away from those innocent children.
Rusty Yates and Dora should have made sure Andrea got the help she obviously needed. Talk about "all the signs were there."
Rusty Yates is disgusting! A Web site?! There's a grieving father for you! I agree with the man on the bus -- he should have been on trial with her!
But instead, you have Dora saying walking in circles 45 times was just Andrea exercising? And the great family man who works at NASA provides his family a Greyhound bus to live in. From what I can tell, the whole family's disturbed!
Lynn Beard
Slam Dunk
Stereotypical tripe: The young woman's coach ["Foul Out," by Wendy Grossman, January 31] said she can't run, she can't jump, and she doesn't have a jump shot. The evaluation was that she is a lazy, inconsistent player who lacks leadership skills.
The NAACP's reported response was that this was "stereotypical and negative." Of course it's negative. If the girl is not good enough to play on the team, then the remarks will be negative. And as far as the remarks being "stereotypical," stereotypical of what? Her race? If so, they've gone too far.
The coach's remarks have nothing to do with race. I am a former collegiate athlete and understand firsthand the "extra" punishments brought against athletes with regard to academics. If this young woman's mother is going to cry out every time she gets "extra" punishment, the girl may as well give up playing competitive sports. The mother needs to accept that if her child is going to participate in athletics, she will have to uphold higher standards. If she can't cut it, she shouldn't play. The rest of the dedicated athletes don't need whiners distracting them.

Car Killer
Keep him in prison: I was at a punk rock show recently and saw a flyer about Brian Deneke's killer being able to go free ["Punks, Jocks and Justice," by Julie Lyons, October 21, 1999]. The American justice system should recognize that Dustin Camp is a killer and that's that. There is absolutely no way that he should be able to go free until his eight years are up. It wasn't like it was an accident; he blatantly ran over Brian, therefore it was murder!
I've been into the punk rock scene for a while, and I just think it is outragous that someone could even think about running over another human being because he was different. Camp should get a reality check and learn that life isn't about running people over with cars.

End Results
Mitchell's magnificent: Fortunately, my wife and I saw Doug Mitchell's new set of plays, A Necessary End, prior to reading Lee Williams's review ["Dead on Arrival," February 21]. If the order had been reversed, we might have skipped them and missed an entertaining evening. What Williams called "illogical and unmotivated dialogue," I found to be humorous exchanges by couples placed in extreme or absurd situations. It certainly helps that the dialogue is delivered (expertly, in my opinion) by two of Houston's most experienced stage couples, William Hardy and Susan Shofner, and Tom Prior and Leslie Maness. I have seen several of Mitchell's plays and believe his dialogue is of the highest standard.
Maybe Williams was in a sour mood or just doesn't like this style of comedy. However, I would encourage your readers to see for themselves. I can testify that the audience laughed almost continuously and enjoyed themselves the night I went. Lee asked "why these plays were ever produced in the first place." In this age, we need all the humor we can find. These plays help.

Out of Service
Ling's lacking: Kudos to Robb Walsh for exposing how little attention to detail is paid in the kitchen and to the service at Ling and Javier in the new Hotel Derek ["Supermodel Cuisine," February 7].
My friends and I ate there recently, and the music was great, but that was about all that was memorable. With the exception of one entrée, the food was deplorable. The roasted pig was so overcooked it was virtually inedible.
Even worse was the inattentive, arrogant and clueless service. Our ashtrays were never cleaned, our entrées each arrived five to ten minutes apart, and there was a collection of empty wine glasses and plates at one end of the table for the duration of the meal. We even had to get up and find our waiter twice.
All of us dining that night have been in the service industry and know what to expect from a restaurant with such prices and elegance. None of us got anything close to what the Hotel Derek is surely striving for, nor will we return. Except maybe for the DJ.
Loris Zucca
Gaul Stones
There's life in the burbs: Apparently Robb Walsh's editor sent him on "an awfully long drive" out to Eldridge Parkway to review the Le Mistral in "les suburbs" ["French for Beginners," February 21].
What a shame he had to rub shoulders with "the suburbanites in their ribbed turtlenecks, blazers without ties and freshly coiffed gray hair."
Indeed, "Eldridge Parkway is a long way from France," as is all of Houston. Many of us suburbanites are well traveled. We even travel to other parts of the city. Can you believe, we may even travel to France and other parts of the world as well?
We even read your paper way out here and buy the products your newspaper advertises, and there is a huge group of us potential customers out here in suburbia.
We are sorry that Walsh had to travel out of his usual surroundings, which obviously put him in a sour mood. We would appreciate subjective ratings of restaurants way out here in the "boondocks" as well as the ratings of the "inner-city" restaurants. Someone, if not Walsh, will have to do such.
Nancy Meeks
Stirring It Up
Cuban it's not: Your Stirred and Shaken column [by James W. Crooker, February 21] states that mojitos are perfect "with spicy Cuban food like arepas and jerk chicken." Your writer has a hazy concept of what Cuban food is about. Cuban food is not spicy. It is mainly derived from the cuisine of Spain and the Mediterranean, and it is well seasoned, but never spicy.
Arepas are typical of Venezuela and unknown in Cuba, and jerk chicken is typical of Jamaica. Saying that they are Cuban specialties is as incorrect and uninformed as saying that pizza and goulash are typical French dishes.

a few years ago my instructor of martial arts told us and showed us how to jump over javalinas. it was part of our training. we did it only if we felt we were ready. they were about 150lb. i have only heard about taking a boar with a knife.
They sure weren't javelinas, then. A 50 lb javelina is a good sized one, with 70 lbs being extreme (unheard of) top end of their size. ~40 lbs is common. Either the weight estimate is off by a factor of about 3X, or the animal was misidentified.

did some hog hunting by knife a few years back (has it really been 6 years since he posted on that? Gawd, we're getting old...). I hadn't heard of Rich doing it, but his experiences are (to say the least) mighty varied.

Hi WebFactory,
I've got a pre-sale question about this awesome theme:
Is it supporting the Woocommerce plugin? I am about to build a "few products" webshop, and the Ensconce would be the greatest theme to customize.
Waiting for your kind answer!
regards, sulaco79

Hi! This theme supports multi language, preferentially the Polylang Plugin? Thanks in advance. Best Regards
Hi, thank you for taking an interest in our items!
No, there is no direct support for Polylang plugin.
Pre-sale questions: I'm a newbie at this so forgive the elementary questions:
1) I'll be using a standard youtube video. Hence, the dimensions (height/width) are smaller than that of this landing page. Is there a way to customize that area so that, for instance, the video is left while there's a column of copy on the right?
2) I see that this is promoted as a responsive video theme, but the comments are saying it's not responsive. Can you explain? If I get this theme will my youtube video work across all sizes?
Thank you!
Hi, thank you for taking an interest in our items!
1) no, video is always 100% wide relative to the screen. height is adjusted according to its ratio
2) theme is responsive. video works on those mobile devices that it can. some don't support it. I suggest opening the demo on your phone and having a look.

STAGE TUBE: NEWSIES Announces 'Fan Week' in Honor of Second Anniversary of Paper Mill Debut
Two years ago, on September 15, 2011, Newsies, the hit Tony Award-winning "critics' pick," played its first performance at Paper Mill Playhouse. Ever since that very first night, Newsies fans, self-proclaimed "fansies," have been a cause for celebration, helping to propel the show from a limited regional theatre run to a limited Broadway engagement and then to extend into a record-breaking open-ended run. In honor of those dedicated fans, the show will celebrate "NewsiesFan Week" September 15 - 21. Check out the cast's announcement video below!
An entire front-page-worthy week of new videos, experiences and re-imagined favorites has been planned. For more information and a complete list of "Fan Week" happenings, visit newsiesthemusical.com/fanweek.
Since bursting onto Broadway last spring, Newsies has set and broken seven Nederlander Theatre house records on its way to becoming the highest-grossing show of its season. The show received 23 major theatrical nominations - including eight Tony Award nods - and won Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Score and Choreography. One of Broadway's highest profile hits, it has been featured nationally on "Dancing with the Stars," "The View," "Good Morning America," "Nightline," "Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade," and "The CBS Thanksgiving Day Parade."
Newsies features a Tony Award-winning score with music by eight-time Academy Award winner Alan Menken and lyrics by Jack Feldman, with a book by four-time Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein.

Set in New York City at the turn of the century, Newsies is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a ragged band of teenaged 'newsies,' who dreams only of a better life far from the hardship of the streets. But when publishing titans Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise distribution prices at the newsboys' expense, Jack finds a cause to fight for and rallies newsies from across the city to strike for what's right.
Newsies is inspired by the real-life 'Newsboy Strike of 1899,' when newsboy Kid Blink led a band of orphan and runaway newsies on a two-week-long action against Pulitzer, Hearst and other powerful newspaper publishers.
