In Reply to: If you're not liberal when you're young... posted by Bob on August 04, 2004
: : This was a letter to the editor in The Courier Journal, Louisville, Ky., today, Aug. 3, 2004. We should recruit him for Phrase Finder.
: : A July 5 letter writer alluded to a quotation often attributed to Winston Churchill, which the writer paraphrased as "If you're not liberal when you're young, you have no heart. If you're not conservative when you're older, you have no brain." Despite the writer's cautious use of "attributed" and "parapharse," as an avid Churchill buff, I am compelled to set the record straight on this myth.
: : The quotation usually attributed to Churchill is, "If you're not Liberal when you're 25, you have no heart. If you're not Conservative when you're 35, you have no brain." However, the attribution is false. There is no record of Churchill ever speaking these words, and it is highly unlikely that he would have because Churchill himself did precisely the opposite. He entered politics as a Conservative and was a Conservative at age 25. He switched to the Liberal Party at age 29 and was a Liberal at age 35. (He returned to the Conservatives at age 49.) Also, his beloved wife, Clementine, was a life-long Liberal, and Churchill would hardly have delivered such an indirect insult to her.
: : It should also be remembered that "Liberal" and "Conservative" are the proper names of British political parties and do not translate precisely to theleft and right wings of the American political spectrum. That is too long a subject for this space, but it can fairly be said that Churchill's political viewpoint and guiding principles did not change radically, despite his twice switching his allegiance. In Churchill's own view, changes in the party, not in himself, compelled his party switches.
: : However, there is a verifiable Churchill quotation that may be relevant to today's political situation. In 1943 (at the height of World War II, when England's very survival was at stake), he wrote: "The power of the executive to cast a man in prison without formulating any charge known to the law and particularly to deny him the judgment of his peers is in the highest degree odious and is the foundation of all totalitarian government...."
: Amen to that. I almost gagged this morning listening to someone from the Knights of Columbus introducing Dubya as one who "restored decency and honor to the office." (He must have missed the parts about preemptive war, prison terms without charges, and torturing prisoners.)
Back to Winnie - I did research the great man about 3 years back and recall the quotation. I have a feeling that he did say it, but that the context was important - in fact I think he might have been expressing a sentiment said to him. He did swap political parties himself, but as the above poster said - it was more due to changes in politics than in his own beliefs.
Churchill had to face the paradox that protecting fundamental freedoms sometimes involved breaching those freedoms. He was also, fundamentally a romantic, believing in the heroism of the individual. He often admired the most unlikely of people - including certain Irish freedom-fighters and Communists; his admiration for heroism overcame his dislike for people's politics. It started with the Cubans and the Boers, where he saw heroism at close quarters - being a bit of a maverick himself.
You wouldn't have thought the rather tubby older Churchill had himself seen action close up.
I think in the version I recall, the emphasis of the remark was to approve liberality in the young, but lament the pragmatism seen as necessary in later years.

I have been asked to make a cake like the one below. I am not sure what was used around the outside of the cake. It looks like chocolate shavings on the cake itself but I am not sure what was used all around the border. It looks like sticks. Any suggestions?
They look like real sticks to me. If you want something edible...you can use pirouettes.
Yep those look like real sticks to me, and moss and some yummy silk cat tails jammed into it.
I would assume they made a cake stand with the sticks and then put the cake on it and covered the board with moss and chocolate shavings.
The only thing I would suggest is to steer clear of the silk plants and make some from gumpaste, those things are dusty and dirty.
Thank you to you both. I thought they looked like sticks also. I may just use sticks and use a bigger board. Thanks for the information.
Does anyone know where I can buy this type of cattails? I have looked online and have not found any that look like this.
Have you tried Hobby Lobby? They have beautiful silks....maybe even Michaels.

Kent City Council adopts B&O tax to help pay for street repairs
The Kent City Council voted 6-1 on Tuesday night to adopt a business and occupation (B&O) tax to help raise an estimated $5 million annually to pay for street repairs.
The council adopted the tax on the gross revenue of businesses as part of its three-step approach they agreed on in July to fund park and street repairs. The other parts are the property tax levy lid lift on the Nov. 6 ballot and the hiring of a consultant to find ways to cut $2 million from the city's budget.
"This is a good day for Kent," said Council President Dennis Higgins at the meeting. "This is the community coming together saying no, we don't want to live in a city that lets its streets and parks fall beyond repair and yes, we are a city that tackles problems in a realistic way while living within our means.
"We know times are tough. But if everyone pulls together, the residents, the businesses and the city, we will solve these problems."
Higgins said at a council workshop earlier Tuesday that residents needed to know businesses are going to help pay for streets and park maintenance.
"When we passed putting the levy on the ballot we committed to residents voting on the levy we would do this in time for them to consider on their levy vote," Higgins said.
The consultant report about cutting city costs is expected to be finished by the end of the month.
Higgins and council members Jamie Perry, Elizabeth Albertson, Bill Boyce, Debbie Ranniger and Dana Ralph voted for the B&O tax. Les Thomas voted against the tax that will be implemented starting Jan. 1, 2013.
"Let's begin to live within our means," Thomas said prior to the vote. "That's certainly something we need to practice and we have not been doing a good job and it's hurt us. We needed to take some actions well beyond this first step the mayor (Suzette Cooke) took two weeks ago with employees being laid off. That should have been done a long time ago. We know that now. Things are not really getting any better at this point."
A total of $4.7 million of the tax will go to street repairs each year. The other $300,000 will pay for hiring two city auditors to oversee the B&O program. Any extra revenue that comes in beyond the estimated $5 million will go to the capital improvement plan, which includes transportation, parks, facilities and other projects.
The council took a slightly different approach to the B&O tax than what Cooke recommended two weeks ago as part of her 2013-14 budget. Cooke wanted a higher rate to raise $6.9 million per year with $4.2 million to street repairs, $1.2 million to the general fund, $1 million to the capital improvement plan and $500,000 to parks. She also proposed an exemption of the first $150,000 of gross revenue so some small businesses would not have to pay the tax.
The council instead agreed with the Kent Chamber of Commerce, which asked the city to raise $5 million to be spent only for street repairs and to exempt the first $250,000 in annual revenue of a business.
The council did not pass a sunset clause supported by the chamber that would remove the B&O tax after six years. The chamber partly wanted that clause because the property tax levy lid lift before voters is for six years. The chamber also wanted debate in 2019 about whether the tax would still be needed.
"The one thing I am struggling with is the sunset clause," Ralph said. "I do not believe this need will go away. My struggle is without a sunset clause this tax will go on and a conversation (about removing the tax) are not happening. I believe it is only reasonable to expect whoever is sitting on this council six years from now will have that conversation.
"Having said that, I know this $5 million is an absolute necessity. As much as I am frustrated and upset that we did not come to a point where that sunset clause was included in this, I will be supporting this ordinance but also as long as I sit on this council this is a conversation we will have."
The majority of council members were concerned a sunset clause on the tax could hurt the city's bond rating even further. Moody's Investor Services has lowered the city's bond rating twice this year because of mounting debt.
Businesses will pay the B&O tax based on gross receipts or a square footage tax, whichever is higher. The city will assess businesses either $1.52 per $1,000 of gross receipts or 46 cents per $1,000 depending on the type of business (manufacturing, wholesale, retail, etc…).
The city also will assess square footage of businesses at 12 cents per square foot annually for warehouses and 4 cents per square foot for other businesses that are larger than 500 square feet. A business must pay the higher of the gross receipts or square footage tax.
Businesses already pay a state B&O tax so the city tax will be in addition to the state tax.
The council approved several business exemptions including nonprofit groups, health maintenance organizations, public utilities (already subject to utility tax) and farmers/agriculture (which includes dairies and nurseries). A couple of council members said the exemption for farmers helps encourage local growers to keep growing crops.
The council also granted a Boeing request to exempt research and development under federal contracts that it does at its Kent plant. The council had a brief discussion at its workshop about the $2.8 million Boeing exemption and agreed to it because of the federal government connection and the fact it would cost the city only about $1,400 in revenue.

Western Theme Cowboy Smash Cake Questions/ideas
Decorating By mnurlife Updated 1 Oct 2013 , 12:55am by mnurlife
Hi everyone! I have a question about a smash cake. I am making one for a babies first birthday and I'm not sure what type of frosting to do. This is my first smash cake to do and I know that children are still developing so I am a little confused which frosting to do. I know SMBC would be light, but I worry since the child is so young. I could do AB but that might be heavy. Anybody have any suggestions?
The color is also red and I worry about the red getting everywhere. Any tips on this would be great. Thank you everyone!!
Hello. Sorry to do this, but can anyone give me advise on the red coloring and frosting? Thank you :)
I don't recommend red for a smash cake. It will get everywhere, is very difficult to remove and may stain the child's skin.
Hi Norasmom. Thank you for the advise. That is what I thought would happen with the red. I'm wondering if I could go with a light blue since the party is for a boy..

recoil pads - help
Hello Friends, Got a maverick 88 12 ga. for Christmas. It kicks the crap out of me (not a pleasure to shoot like my old Mossberg 20 ga.). I'm 66 years old, 185 pounds (mostly around my middle - skinny arms, shoulders & legs.) Have been looking at recoil pads online. Sims Limbsaver & Pachmayr Declerator seem to have good to excellent reviews & Mag Plus strap on recoil pad has mixed reviews. Does anyone have any advice for me? I'm thinking of a slip on pad. Thanks, Bernie
Hi Bernie! I've had good luck with the Pachmayr Decelerator slip on pads.
Pachmayr® Pachmayr your primary source for quality handgun grips and recoil pads
I've got e'm on several Mossy 500s, Ithica 51s, most all my 12ga stuff.
I even use them on my 8mm & 30-06 old military rifles.
We are in the same boat. You got me by a couple years, but I got you by around 20#. Sounds like we both ain't much for recoil. Good luck! Ken
Look into a kickEEZ pad also
God didnt make all men equal colonel sam colt did
Thanks. After posting on 3 forums I've been recommended as follows:
Sims Limbsaver - 3 replies
Pachmayr Decelerator - 3
Mag Plus - 0
KickEEZ -1
EvoShield - 1
Anyone have thoughts about buying both recoil pad and a shoulder strap on pad?
Thanks, Bernie

Discussion in 'Texans Talk' started by nut, Oct 11, 2009.
He is unbelievable.
That's just wanting it more than the other guys. Now let's see if the defense can step up in the same way.
OK, giving them great field position on the kick off return isn't going to help.
what a great defensive stand
That's toughness
Tough and strong. Very impressive.
AJ is the man.
I wish the Texans had this fight on the 1 yard line at the end of the game.
So true.......
Probably should have gave AJ the ball twice up the middle, he could leap over that pile.
is it me or has AJ dropped alot alot of balls early this year? that play was great.
sad to see such a great effort wasted
He deserves better.
He is the Earl Campbell of our era, awesome player, but nothing to show for it cept what, some records and stats?
not often you see a defender helicoptered as they bounce off a receiver (i hope that gets youtubed), then another db flattened, and the third gets backpedaled against for 4 yards. as a defender i think it'd be scarier to hit AJ high than it would be against even leach.
That was an incredible play ....
That is one of the best plays I have ever seen a WR make, in 40+ years of watching football. We do not deserve a WR as great as this young man, and he deserves to be on a better team.
I missed it? Vid link?
I'd like to see us just trade him to a good team so he can actually get the credit and wins he deserves. So sad to see him give so much to this team only to lose. He should be a much bigger name than he is now.
Made #2...and probably should have been #1, just got screwed by the circumstances of losing.
"That's a man" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3VMXNXCHSs
I feel the same way. He is wasing his talent/career/prime here in Houston.
Separate names with a comma.

The magazine, originally conceived as a newsletter for users of the Ferguson Big Board (a single-board CP/M computer), was published bi-monthly beginning in July 1981. It soon expanded its coverage to other board-level computers, the Kaypro computer, and general hobbyist/experimental computing, with special interest areas being robotics, interfacing, embedded systems and programming languages. The magazine carried articles on a wide range of subjects, some system-specific and newsletter-like, but also covering (then) off-mainstream topics, e.g. 3D graphics, artificial intelligence, or the special needs of handicapped users. They published a 32-page catalog of CP/M and MS-DOS software, cover date Fall/Winter 1986, describing it as the second, the first having been the Spring issue.
"Micro C", as the magazine was known to its fiercely loyal readership, routinely published circuit diagrams and source code. The magazine was shut down after more than 50 issues in 1990, reportedly due to the editor's change of interests.

Thayer pleads no contest to February stabbing in Riverton
(Lander, Wyo.) – Pursuant to a plea agreement, Heto Thayer pleaded no contest to a single charge of Aggravated Assault and Battery in Wyoming's Ninth District Court earlier this morning.
The 32-year-old Fort Washakie man is charged with intentionally stabbing Kimberly Potter in the back early morning one February day, an injury which caused one of Potter's lungs to collapse.
Per the agreement, he pleaded no contest to one charge and a second similar charge will be dismissed. The agreement will make the prosecution argue for a sentence no more severe than 5-7 years in prison. The defense will be able to argue for any punishment it deems worthy. The charge, without the agreement, carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison or $10,000 in fines or both.
"Plea agreements are appropriate, but the court is not bound to accept them," Judge Norman E. Young said.
He conditionally accepted the agreement, pending the outcome of a pre-sentence investigation. Thayer will remain in prison under a $75,000 bond.
With the no contest plea, Thayer was not required provide a factual basis for the plea. Young accepted the affidavit filed in the case as the factual basis, and Thayer did not object.
Detective Sergeant Julie Mathews of the Riverton Police Department, in the affidavit, said the attack occurred at or before 5:37 a.m. on Feb. 10, 2013. Police received a call of a stabbing victim at the Comfort Inn on North Federal Boulevard.
According to the affidavit, when officers arrived, Potter was found at the front desk with blood soaking through her shirt and jacket. She reported she was having trouble breathing from the knife wound, and she identified Thayer as her assailant. Officers applied pressure to the wound with a towel to slow the bleeding. When the Fremont County EMS ambulance arrived and transported Potter to Riverton Memorial Hospital, officers tracked the suspect, identified at Hedoduyehpau Thayer, AKA Heto Herman Thayer, across the highway to the Walmart store through tracks he left in the fresh fallen snow.
Thayer was located inside the store on the east side of the check out registers, where he was arrested. Officers who followed Thayer's tracks in the snow, reported that they discovered the knife that they believed he used in the attack behind a set of tires of a semi-truck and trailer parked in the Walmart lot.

Film London opens online voting for Best of Borough Awards,
boosting the careers of the capital's emerging film-makers
Film London, with support from the Mayor of London and the UK Film Council, today launched the 2010 Best of Borough Film Awards (aka the BoBs) which will take place at BAFTA on Monday 12 July. The BoBs is an annual prize to find the best short films produced through the London Borough Film Fund Challenge (LBFFC), a scheme which aims to discover London's film-making talent of tomorrow. The public can now view the 16 shortlisted films online and vote for their favorite film: www.filmlondon.org.uk/BoBs. Voting closes on Wednesday 30 June with one lucky voter picked at random to receive two tickets to the award ceremony plus a bottle of champagne.
Two cash prizes, of £2,000 each, will be presented to emerging film-makers from across the capital for the Audience Award and the Jury Award. The Audience Award will be presented to the film which receives the highest number of online votes and the Jury Award will be given to the film selected by a panel of representatives from the film industry, including Philip Ilson (Director of London Short Film Festival), Larushka Ivan-Zadeh (Metro film critic), Joe Bateman (Director of Rushes Soho Shorts) and Katie Metcalfe (Acquisitions Manager, Shorts International). The overall winner of Film 'London' in 90 Seconds, a new element to the LBFFC this year, will also be announced at the event.
Film London's LBFFC is a short film-making scheme open to all residents of the participating boroughs. Working in partnership with the capital's local authorities the aim of the LBFFC is to discover grassroots talent, stimulate local film-making and develop new skills. 23 of the 33 London boroughs took part in 2009, up from 15 boroughs in 2008, following a pledge from the Mayor of London that this unique and successful film fund would increase its reach.
The LBFFC delivers an enormous opportunity to some of the capital's most disadvantaged communities and the shortlisted films cover a huge range of issues, subject matter and style, reflecting the richness and diversity of London's society. 16 boroughs offered the full film-making fund, allowing would be film-makers to apply for funds of up to £4000. A further seven boroughs offered their residents the Film 'London' in 90 Seconds competition – a new initiative giving more London boroughs the tools and resources to deliver a film-making competition.
Adrian Wootton, Chief Executive of Film London said: "The BoBs 2010 shortlist has a wealth of really strong films and, as ever, it is very encouraging as the films confirm our city is home to some fantastic emerging film-making talent. The LBFFC is run in partnership with the London boroughs which allows each local authority to reach their own residents giving us the chance to inspire those who may not have previously engaged with film or film-making. It is one of UK's biggest and best short film-making schemes and the resulting films have been screened and picked up prizes at festivals all over the world. We are extremely grateful for the ongoing support from the Mayor, the London Development Agency and the UK Film Council, without whom, this scheme would not be possible."
Since launching in 2006 the LBFFC has funded over 140 short films producing work which has been selected for international festivals and won numerous and prestigious awards. This includes screening in official competition in Cannes, winning Best Short at the Berlin Film Festival and nominations for the British Independent Film Awards, to name but a few. Many of the film-makers have gone on to make more ambitious projects, found work in the production industry or continued their training at some of the world's best film schools.

Shopping Books to Release THE REVEREND BILLY PROJECT This Week
This week, Shopping Books publishes The Reverend Billy Project, the most extensive account of the eco-televangelists and his collaborators' years of activism. The book, released here as an e-book, is written by the director of the troupe's performances, Savitri D, and Bill Talen, the writer/actor who inhabits the title character Reverend Billy, and features an introduction by Alisa Solomon. A chapter on the fight to stop the clear-cutting of Boreal forests by paper suppliers of Victoria's Secret catalogues anticipates the Stop Shopping Choir's current earth activism-their HoneyBeeLujah! campaign and The HoneyBeeLujah Show, which they are performing each Sunday through June 22 at Joe's Pub at The Public (425 Lafayette St, NYC).
The Reverend Billy Project is an inside look at the process of creating small-but-explosive spectacles that stop people in their tracks and make them think, even in today's over-stocked mental environment. The book is a firsthand account of the Reverend's work, from his early Starbucks "casting out of demons from cash registers" continuing across several continents, up to his run for Mayor of New York City in 2009.
The publication comes in the midst of the HoneyBeeLujah campaign, which has garnered the attention of The New Yorker, The Village Voice and others. As part of the campaign, The Choir has twice visited the Harvard Microrobotics Lab, where scientists are developing the "Robobee," a drone-like pollinator device that is designed to replace Honey Bees and is exemplary of the "Big Ag" complex. In these actions, as in the show at Joe's Pub, the Choir performs adorned and accompanied by hundreds of Honey Bees handmade by Savitri D and the rest of the Choir's 40 singer-activists. In the coming weeks, over the course of the run at Joe's Pub, they will perform more of these "swarmings" in and around the property of Monsanto and Bayer, Home Depot and Lowes-the corporations that drench the land with bee-killing pesticides and GMO crops.
The HoneyBeeLujah Show, which began May 4, runs each Sunday at 2pm at Joe's Pub. Directed by Savitri D., with Music Director Nehemiah Luckett, the performances feature the 40-member Stop Shopping Choir, fronted by their eco-televangelist, Reverend Billy, and the five-piece Not Buying It Band. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at www.joespub.com or 212.967.7555.
The current Joe's Pub engagement follows the Choir's sold-out 2013 holiday season run at the prestigious venue, which, along with performances in bank lobbies and New York courts, decried lending institutions that are financing resource-extraction and are, by extension, responsible for climate destruction. In the shows last November and December, and in non-violent bank lobby actions leading up to those performances, the singers inhabited the character of the Golden Toad, a small amphibian forced into extinction by extreme climate change in Central America in the late 80s. For one of these performances, at a JPMorgan Chase location on September 12, 2013, prosecutors demanded a year in prison and $30k bail for William Talen (aka Reverend Billy) and Nehemiah Luckett. The 15-minute performance earned criminal charges of "Riot," "Menacing" and "Unlawful Assembly." Those charges have been dropped, but the trial continues. The defendants are pleading innocent of all charges, including trespassing and unlawful assembly.
About Savitri D: Savitri D has directed the Church of Stop Shopping since 2000, when she took the reigns from Tony Torn. She has developed the church's interactive show-featuring 40 singer-activists in post-religious prayers, miracles, slap-dancing and flights through the audience-over the course of performances on four continents. She has guided the troupe in shows at Haus der Kulturen der Wert in Berlin, the Center of Contemporary Culture in Barcelona, REDCAT in Los Angeles, the Yale School of Divinity and the Burning Man festival in Nevada, among many other venues. Savitri produced What Would Jesus Buy? with Morgan Spurlock and produced The Last Televangelist with DeeDee Halleck and Glenn Gabel for Free Speech Television.
About Reverend Billy: Reverend Billy has won an OBIE Award, the Alpert Award, The Dramalogue Award and The Historic Districts Council's Preservation Award (for leading demonstrations to save Manhattan's Poe House), and has been jailed more than 50 times. He was a central figure of Occupy Wall Street and toured 25 OWS tent communities from Zurich to Oakland, CA with the Stop Shopping Choir. He has run for New York City mayor on the Green Party ticket. Reverend Billy has released three CDs, three documentary films, published two books, and produced eight 28-minute television shows as part of the The Last Televangelist, broadcast on the cable channel Free Speech Television.
Savitri D and the Reverend are frequent guests of news media, having appeared on The Today Show, CBS Evening News, Nightline, Fox News, Al-Jazeera, Glenn Beck, Hannity & Colmes, Democracy Now, NPR's "All Things Considered" and "Marketplace," Geraldo Rivera, CNN, The Tavis Smiley Show, The BBC World Service, BBC 1 and numerous other local and regional affiliates and International print outlets.
About the Stop Shopping Choir: The Stop Shopping Choir is an all-ages, 40-member singing group, under the direction of Savitri D, with musical director Nehemiah Luckett and lead singer Laura Newman. The choir represents a diverse array of economic, ethnic, religious, and cultural backgrounds and has members from every continent except Antarctica, which they're working on. Among them are scientists, teachers, artists, therapists, welders, cyclists, builders, developers, hairdressers, dog walkers, actors, truck drivers, tech geeks, scholars and executives. The Choir has toured in Europe, Africa, South America and throughout North America. They are the subject of Morgan Spurlock's second feature film, What Would Jesus Buy?
About The Church of Stop Shopping: The Church of Stop Shopping is a New York City based radical performance community, with 50 performing members and a congregation in the thousands. They are wild anti-consumerist gospel shouters and earth loving urban activists who have worked with communities on four continents defending land, life and imagination from reckless development and the extractive imperatives of global capital. They employ multiple tactics and creative strategies, including cash register exorcisms, retail interventions, and cell phone operas. They are entertainers and artists, performing regularly throughout the US and Europe. Over the years of church service-like shows - Reverend Billy has canonized Joan Baez, Kurt Vonnegut, Justin Vivian Bond, Guillermo Gomez-Pena, Tim DeChristopher, Bertha Lewis, the Yes Men, Dr. Benjamin Barber and Jennifer Miller the Bearded Lady into "Fabulous Sainthood" in the Church of Stop Shopping.
About Joe's Pub at The Public: Joe's Pub at The Public is one of New York City's most celebrated venues for emerging and established performance artists. Named for Public Theater founder Joe Papp, Joe's Pub debuted in 1998 and plays a vital role in The Public's mission of supporting young artists while providing established artists with an intimate space to perform and develop new work. Joe's Pub presents talent from all over the world as part of The Public's programming downtown at its Astor Place home, hosting approximately 800 shows and serving over 100,000 audience members annually. The diverse roster of programming featured at Joe's Pub includes top performers from Broadway, cabaret, dance, world, jazz, country, and indie genres, as well as New York Voices, its commissioning initiative. Joe's Pub also collaborates with other Public Theater programs to present events such as the Under the Radar Incoming series and the Public Forum lecture and debate series. The New York Times has praised Joe's Pub as at the "nexus" of "a downtown axis of clubs whose performers gleefully fuzz the boundaries between old and new, and between pop, rock, jazz, rhythm-and-blues, swing, country, world music and performance art."

Rashida Jones: I was heavy but funny
Rashida Jones realised she was funny as a child, when she tried out comedy because she was on the "heavy side".
The Parks and Recreation actress is currently starring in Cuban Fury, which is another comedy string to add to her bow.
Recalling her childhood, Rashida says it was her body frame that led her to the realisation she was funny.
"As a pre-teen, I was on the heavy side. I had girlfriends who were pretty and who guys wanted to make out with, so I'd get in between and try to make them laugh," Rashida told Britain's Marie Claire magazine.
Cuban Fury co-stars Nick Frost and Chris O'Dowd and centres around a former salsa prodigy who attempts a comeback years after his career was ruined.
Rashida had no hesitation in accepting a role in the dance movie, which had its London premiere last night.
"I've been a fan of Nick Frost for a long time, and when I heard he was starring in the movie I wanted to get near him. I wasn't disappointed when I met him - he's funnier than I imagined," she smiled.
Rashida wouldn't be drawn on whether Nick or Bridesmaids star Chris O'Dowd was funnier though.
"It's a toss-up. The three of us spent a lot of time together, so it was a competition who made who laugh the most," she laughed.
The 37-year-old actress is the daughter of music mogul Quincy Jones and had a childhood filled with famous faces.
She admits there were some "surreal moment" whilst growing up, but that generally the celebrities that frequented her house didn't faze her.
"I cared less about the musicians [like Michael Jackson] coming to the house. My mom's assistant once got into a car accident with John Travolta and he came over with flowers. I loved Grease, so I lost my mind. I mean, Danny Zuko, come on!" she exclaimed.

Thinking about getting a Nagant M1895. Looks cool to plink with. Anyone have one, and if so, what do you think about it?
I'ver heard they are nice and they are the only revolver I know of that can be silenced.
Although I think the ammo is hard to come by.
Weird and wonderful. The cylinder moves forward when cocked, sealing the end against the barrel, supposedly to prevent the escape of gasses and make the round more potent. As Jiro stated, this enabled it to be silenced, as there is no gap.
The ammo is recessed below the neck of the brass, I guess also for sealing purposes. For when this thing was invented, it was over-engineered.
As Scott said, ammo can be found online, but hang up finding it at your smaller shops or Wally World.
Actually, quite a fun plinker, and a solid gun. A little stiff, remarkable for the age of the gun.
Don't pay more than $70.
I have a 1937 Tula, and it's a great plinker. It isn't super accurate, but no problem punching out a paper plate at 25 yards. The trigger pull is extremely heavy though, probably because of the gas seal system I would guess. The ammo is available, but it is not cheap. You can get a conversion cylinder to shoot cheaper and more plentiful .32 ACP, but then the gas seal does not work, and you use some velocity.
this is a gun for a reloader.32/20 empties will work.and you have to find a charge that is safe.bullseye or 700X will work.and use lead bullets.
They sell for $79.I am not sure the replacement cylinder will drop in.
I really like mine...fun pistol to shoot for sure and the price is right
I have one, and my shooting buddy has four. He does my reloading, as I haven't been able to get the dies yet. Once I do, I will be using his load data.
Accuracy is okay, power is light - great plinker with soda cans or steel spinner targets.
I shoot .32 S&W long in mine with excellent results.
Century carries the Hotshot 7.62 Nagant for $22 per box of 50.
I picked up some on sale for $18 a couple of months ago.
You can also shoot .32 H&R mag but the cases tend to swell and stick.
The .32 acp cylinder is a waste of money unless you have the time and knowledge to fit it to your gun.
They DO NOT drop in.

Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, currently out on parole, got an extension of the parole due to his wife Manyata's illness, here Monday
Dutt, who secured parole Dec 21 from Pune's Yerawada Central Jail (YCJ), was expected to return to the jail after completing his one month leave-from-prison today.
He had recently submitted an application seeking extension of parole to the Pune divisional commissioner on account of Manyata's worsening health condition.
Manyata is reported to be suffering from multiple ailments of the heart and liver and was admitted to Global Hospital in Parel, south-central Mumbai, over a week ago for treatment.
Sanjay Dutt with wife Manyata. File pic
Prior to this, Dutt had been released on a fortnight long furlough, which was extended by another fortnight in Oct 2013.
A convict in the March 1993 Mumbai serial bomb blasts case, Dutt had surrendered before a Mumbai special court in May 2013 after his conviction was confirmed by the Supreme Court.
Since he had already served 18 months of his five-year sentence, Dutt returned to YCJ to serve the remaining 42 months of his conviction for illegal possession of weapons in 1993.
What is this? Some kind of Elite Access to come and go to jail whenever a criminal wants. Don't we know that Sanjay Dutt is unable to sit his ass down in the jail. Why is the court granting such ridiculous requests in the first place. When will Salman who actually did manslaughter go to jail while Sanjay who is a lame consipracist get it that law does catch up to you at some point of time.
WILL HE EVER GO BACK? AAP pls look into this? Corruption/Influence at its best
This man will get away easily bcos of hi sister and their political connections. The bollywood community which thrives on underworld money is unconditionally sporting this criminal. This whol system is a SHAM. Shame on the political parties both BJP and Congress.

Stracotto al Vino Rosso: An Excerpt from In Late Winter We Ate Pears
The following is an excerpt from In Late Winter We Ate Pears: A Year of Hunger and Love by Deirdre Heekin and Caleb Barber. It has been adapted for the Web.
Stracotto al Vino Rosso
Beef Braised in Red Wine
The beauty of this dish lies in its preparation. It will require only about 30 minutes of your attention, and the rest of the time the meat just talks to itself in the privacy of the braising pot. You will need a heavy casserole with a tightfitting lid, or that old cast-iron Dutch oven your mother gave you (either should be suitable for the stovetop), or you can just use a roasting pan and tin foil and do the braising in the oven. Which means you can also bake a cake and roast some potatoes while the meat is cooking. Serves 4 to 6 people.
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 medium carrots, quartered lengthwise and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 2 or 3 celery stalks, quartered lengthwise and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 3 or 4 bay leaves
- 2 or 3 sprigs thyme
- 1 top or bottom round roast (about 3 to 4 pounds)
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Red wine (choose something that you would want to drink with the finished dish)
If you are braising in the oven, preheat it to 350 degrees.
Put all the cut vegetables into your braising pot or roasting pan along with the herbs and mix them together. This is the bed on which the meat will braise. Heat a little olive oil in a skillet until a haze forms over the pan, put in the meat, and brown it well over high heat for about 3 or 4 minutes on each side. Keep the heat high. Use tongs or a pair of forks to turn the meat and get all its surfaces browned.
Remove the meat and transfer it to the braising pan, resting it on the vegetables, and season it all over with large pinches of salt and pepper. Add the wine to the pan, enough to cover the vegetables and some of the meat. Nestle the meat down into the vegetables and cover the pot.
If you are braising on the stovetop, bring the covered pot to a very gentle simmer and keep it there. If you are braising in the oven, cover the dish with aluminum foil, pushing the foil down around the inside of the pan so that as the juices steam onto the foil they end up dripping back down into the pan and not outside.
Braise the meat for 2 1/2 hours. Remove the lid and replace it askew (or loosen an edge of the tin foil if using the oven) so that the juices can reduce and thicken a little bit, and cook for 30 minutes longer. Remove the meat from the pot to a cutting board and let it rest. Remove the bay leaves from the dish. Transfer all the braising liquid and vegetables to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Taste the sauce and correct for salt and pepper. Slice the meat across the grain and arrange it on a serving platter. Pour over the sauce and serve.

What are the dimensions of a half sheet cake? I have looked online and I get different answers.
I have an 11x15, which I thought was a half sheet, but when I went to order some boxes there were none to fit it. So I did some research and some consider a 12x18 a half sheet. I have an order for next Saturday and I need a half sheet cake! Someone please tell me which is correct!
Also, has anyone ever used a cake pan divider to make two different flavors? Or should I bake two small ones and just put them together?
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but this is what I know...
Full Sheet - 24" x 18" = 432 square inches
Half Sheet - 12" x 18" = 216 square inches
Quarter Sheet - 12" x 9" = 108 square inches
I do know that some people just use a 9" x 13" pan and call it a quarter sheet though...
Mathematically an 11" x 15" is only 165 square inches... but I dont know if that makes much of a differance...
The only cake pan divider I have ever used was a sheet of parchment or such thing set between the two when I wanted... but the pre-made dividers look really interesting...
12x18 is a half sheet.
11x15 is considered a third sheet.
I wrote this in another thread...
1/4 Sheet = 9x13
1/3 Sheet = 11x15
1/2 Sheet = 12x18
Full Sheet = 16x24 (baked in 18x26 Bun pan with bakeable cardboard tray).

When it comes time to upgrade my peripherals, I must admit that I do my research and read a lot. And usually before I fork out some cold, hard folding stuff on a new item the old one has usually snuffed it or is on its last legs anyway. My reasoning behind this kind of purchasing behaviour is that I have something that serves me well; does everything that I need it to and the thought of having to swathe through countless reviews and retailer sites scares me. Or you could call me lazy :D
I'm sure that many of you have probably been in the same scenario, and to be honest peripheral purchases can tend to be a bit of a hit and miss affair. In the absence of hard data and benchmarks that make PC hardware purchases considerably easier, the same cannot be said for peripherals.
My Logitech G15 rev. 1 keyboard is starting to look very long in the tooth, and the W,A,S and D keys have all bar worn off. But hey it still does everything that I need it to do. The thought of trying to find another keyboard of the same calibre as the G15 conjures up images of painful experiences from the past. However, those images quickly faded away the day I was introduced to the RAZER Lycosa Gaming Keyboard.
The RAZER Lycosa is a gaming orientated keyboard named after the European Wolf Spider (from the Latin - Lycosidae). Interestingly, Lycosidae have a very strong tendency to flee at the approach of any large animal - I hope this isn't indicative of what we can expect from the RAZER Lycosa :D. Jokes aside, the RAZER Lycosa Gaming Keyboard is an impressive piece of kit and I'd like to start this review by taking a look at its specifications.

|Cloud scaling, Part
3: Explore video analytics in the cloud
Explore and consider methods, tools, and system design for video and image analysis with cloud scaling. As described in earlier articles in this series, video analytics requires a more balanced "data-centric compute architecture" compared to traditional compute-centric, scalable, high-performance computing. The author examines the use of OpenCV and similar tools for digital video analysis and methods to scale this analysis using cluster and distributed system design. The use of coprocessors designed for video analytics and the new OpenVX hardware acceleration discussed in previous articles can be applied to the computer vision (CV) examples presented in this article.

|Cloud scaling, Part 2: Tour high-performance cloud system design advances
Breakthrough device technology requires the system designer to re-think operating an application software design in order to realize the potential benefits of closing the access gap or pushing processing into the I/O path with coprocessors. Explore and consider how the latest memory, compute, and interconnection devices and subsystems can affect your scalable, data-centric, high-performance cloud computing system design. Breakthroughs in device technology can be leveraged for transition between "compute-centric" and the more balanced "data-centric" compute architectures. The author examines storage-class memory and demonstrates how to fill the long-standing performance gap between RAM and spinning disk storage. He also details the use of I/O bus coprocessors (for processing closer to data), explains how to employ InfiniBand to build low-cost, high performance interconnection networks, and discusses scalable storage for unstructured data.

La Jolla lifeguard tower rife with cost overruns
Baby bird, seal-pupping, and bad waste pump blamed for budget surprises
Matt Potter 4 p.m., Sept. 21
1980 La Costa Avenue, Carlsbad
Membership: 80 families
Rabbi: Yeruchem Eilfort
Age: 48
Born: Los Angeles
Formation: Central Chabad-Lubavitch Yeshiva, Brooklyn, NY
Years Ordained: 25
The San Diego Reader: What is the mission of your chabad?
Rabbi Yeruchem Eilfort: The mission of my chabad is to be here as a beacon of light — a Jewish home — for the people in this area and to serve them in whatever capacity they need — spiritually, emotionally and even physically. We try to help people on their terms with what they need. It isn't always easy — often it is not — but that is what we try to do.
SDR: Where is the most surprising place that you found God?
RE: Obviously, December 25 is not our holiday — but on this day this man said to me, "Rabbi, you're going with me." "Where are we going?" He said, "You'll see." We went to Mexico with sandwiches and pockets full of change and his joy was to give something to the people who are living in such abject poverty. It was so sad. I saw a little kid trying to strum on a guitar with one string and sing to get some sort of handout. The way my friend's face lit up — he couldn't give a lot, but he could give everyone a little bit of money and a sandwich. I thought it was unbelievable. I said, "Look, God is here on the streets of Tijuana." When we reach out to others who we are not connected to and have no business being connected to — our soul is reaching out to their soul. So, you can find God in the most unlikely place, such as in Tijuana on Christmas day.
SDR: Where do you go when you die?
RE: Walmart with unlimited money. I'm kidding. No, this is a great question. Judaism believes in a life after death. There's no question about it in my mind or traditional Jewish theology. The soul is the essence of the person, a spiritual being that is miraculously enclosed in a physical garment, the body, for x number of years. So, what's the purpose of this? To refine or prove the soul. In Hebrew terms it's a yerida tzarich aliya, which translates as "a descent in order to ascend." In other words, that God sends our souls down here in order to enclose it in a body so it should elevate the body; instead of being merely flesh and blood, the body should be elevated to become a receptacle or vessel for Godliness…. The type of life that the individual led will determine what his or her experience will be in the world to come. If I spend my life training to desire Godliness and spirituality, studying the Torah, praying to God, or doing acts of kindness, my soul has become acclimated to Godliness. So, when my soul goes to the world to come, it feels right at home — heavenly. It's so wonderful because this is what I enjoy doing after all. But if I spend my time in this world chasing physicality and these other types of pursuits — the soul feels totally out of place in the world to come: uncomfortable, bored, and realizing that this is not what it wants. It's like hell. Our tradition teaches that over time the soul becomes acclimated; even the soul that spent its life pursuing physicality eventually becomes acclimated, and therefore the hellacious initial experience turns into a heavenly experience.

- Mary,
Thank you for posting "Revelations of an Insider".
The info has given me some great self realizations. Instead of blaming "them" now I see
that they have really been helping me toward ascension. Because my reality is all a result
of my choices, my will. (have heard this so many times before but after reading this article
it clicks). I now see how I have trapped myself in their prison (without bars).
Also I can stop blaming the government for giving me Lyme Disease (something I have had
my whole adult life) now realizing that I chose my illnesses to clear Karma from other lives
so I could ascend in this one.
I have gone back to sensing everything now. Seeing if I am in my heart center or not. If I
am sensing from my solar plexas I use my will to make a better choice to get me back in
my heart center.
Funny that of all the info I have had on this topic....it was a message from "the dark side"
that enabled me to see things so clearly and get me moving in the right direction.
Your message has been successfully submitted and would be delivered to recipients shortly.

WBB: Shaw Overcomes Early Deficit to Hold Off Livingstone 90-84
Posted February 10, 2013
Salisbury, N.C. — The 15th-ranked Shaw University Lady Bears rallied from a 14-point first half deficit to knock off Livingstone 90-84 on Saturday night in a game played at Trent Gymnaisum.
The Lady Bears outscored the opposing Lady Blue Bears 51-46 in the second half to improve to 19-3 overall, 10-2 in the CIAA and 5-1 in the Southern Division. Livingstone, meanwhile, falls to 7-14 overall, 3-9 in the CIAA and 1-5 in the Southern Division.
The Lady Bears had a balanced scoring attack with five players scoring in double figures. They were led by the duo of Crystal Harris and Crystal Wilson, who each finished with 16 points. Diamond Mitchell and Isayra Diaz scored 12 points apiece while Taylor Dalrymple contributed 11 points and seven rebounds off the bench.
For the game, the Lady Bears shot 32-of-66 from the floor for a 48.5 percent rate and they were 5-of-10 from three-point land, with Diaz burying two. They were also 21-of-35 from the free throw line, for 60 percent.

With 5:47 remaining in the first half, Tyesha Tharpe put Livingstone up nine at 30-21 with a layup. The Lady Bears responded with a 13-4 run over the next four minutes to tie the contest at 34. Crystal Gordon buried two free throws to tie the game for the first time.

Another bucket by Mitchell brought Livingstone within three at 54-51 with 12:29 left to play. Shortly thereafter, Murray brought the Lady Blue Bears within two (54-52).
From there, the Lady Bears answered with an 8-2 run, capped off with a three-pointer from Diaz at the 10:57 mark, which gave Shaw a 62-54 cushion.
Livingstone scored six straight points on back-to-back three-pointers from Ashley Walker and Murray to cut the deficit to two at 62-60 with 9:23 remaining in the contest.
The Lady Bears responded with an 8-0 run over the next 2:09 to pull ahead by 10. The run was capped off with a layup from Harris, which put Shaw up 70-60.

Note: Over the next couple of weeks we will recap the Sixers' season by evaluating each member of the roster.
Royal Ivey
Position: Point guard
Status: Unrestricted free agent
Signature game of 2012-13
Ivey scored a season-high 17 points on March 2 to lead the Sixers to a 104-97 victory over Golden State. Ivey's 17 points game on a perfect 6-for-6 shooting, including four of those from behind the three-point arc.
Ivey in 2012-13
The Sixers signed Ivey to a one-year minimum deal to provide support to Jrue Holiday for a few minutes a night. For the most part, that's exactly what Ivey provided. A nine-year vet, Ivey provided experience, quickness and solid outside shooting. His 42-percent shooting from three-point range was a career best.
Ivey struggled with some injuries during the first half of the season and was often in, and then out, of head coach Doug Collins' rotations. He started five games, including four in a row during March. But during April, Ivey couldn't get on the court.
An unrestricted free agent, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Ivey return to the Sixers on another one-year deal. However, if Ivey is going to have to sit on the bench for long stretches -- he was a DNP-CD in six of the last seven games -- why not do it for a winning team?
On Royal Ivey
"He brings an energy and toughness that we have to have -- his up-the-floor defense, his ability to make the open shot. What I try to do is, I don't play him as a point guard offensively. He guards the points but somebody else out there will handle the ball and get us out there into our offense. We need him."
--Doug Collins, Dec. 31, 2013

10 Toxic Behaviors That Will Ruin A Relationship.
Relationships are not easy. You may have love and animal-like passion towards each other but that is not enough to sustain a long, happy, and satisfied partnership. There are so many factors that can make or break a union.
Those seeking to find their soulmate often times focus on the external and superficial elements like good looks, nice body, and a good paying career. Not to say this is not important but it is not enough.
Every person comes with their own personalities and set of ideas. It's hard to look within ourselves to recognize our shortcomings. It's even more difficult to change, particularly, when this is the person you have been as long as you can remember. Nonetheless, here are behaviours that can definitely break your relationship, regardless how much in love you are.
#1. Ghosts of Relationships' Past.
Bringing the baggage from previous relationships will eventually seep into your new one. Deal with whatever has happened in order to move on and really have a shot in your new partnership.
Rex Features
#2. Be trustworthy.
You can say all the wonderful things your partner expects but if he or she does not trust you, then your words and actions do not mean anything. You need to ask yourself why you're not trusted and begin a process of redemption and change.
#3. Eye Contact.
Regardless of the type of relationship you have, communication is important and part of that is eye contact. Looking at the person in the eye confirms you are present, listening, and engaged. Avoiding something so basic means you are checked out but too cowardly to admit it.
Universal Pictures
#4. Stop whining.
Nothing is ever good enough and you are more than willing to point out all the thing your partner does wrong. You are not perfect and this constant complaining not only becomes a habit, it's a destructive one as well.
Howard Kingsnorth / Getty Images
#5. Don't forget to celebrate.
You found each other and some people spend a lifetime doing that without success. Celebrate your love and life together. It's not corny, it's showing joy at being in each other's lives.

Get Your Dog Care Questions Answered by Experts
Walter, we are without a dog for the 1st time in 31 years of marriage, but are renting a small townhome and are not home for 1/2 the day. We'd love to get some sort of dog that is litter box trainable and easily trainable in general. We've had Boston terriers in the past and love them, but they seem to be 'buriers' of their litter so the litter box training doesn't seem feasible. I'm not a big fan of fru-fru dogs or barkers - any other recommendations?
I think any dog can be litter box trained. Probably easier with a puppy as you will be housebreaking and can stipulate where the dog is to "go" while you are training.
I take it you aren't interested in a cat?
no, the wife is allergic to most cats, though if you know of ones that are somewhat hypo-allergenic maybe she would consider.
There are some supposedly "hypoallergenic" breeds of cats available--might be worth a search for a reputable breeder. Back to the dogs--what makes a dog "fru-fru"?
I've heard of miniature pinschers being easy to litter box train - are they easily trainable in general.
haha - fru-fru I guess would be real furry and a lot of coat maintenance
I like MinPins. I think they are intelligent little dogs and should be trainable. In general I would look for a female dog over a male; small breed male dogs (particularly Shih Tzus) tend to mark their territory and are harder to housebreak. But the females don't seem to have that issue.
I like Maltese a lot, but they do require grooming. Yorkies and Poms are good little dogs, too, but again, need grooming.
Chihuahuas are pretty smart little dogs.
we love boston terriers, but both we've had would dig up the yard 'burying' their waste. That would seem to be a mess waiting to happen in a litter box. Is that a common trait with bostons?
I would plan on getting a puppy so you can start the housebreaking to litter immediately. You might also look into the boxes with astro turf instead. The urine flows through into a tray (with an absorbant pad underneath) and the stool stays on top for easy removal.
Are the Maltese or chihuahuas more barky than other little dogs?
Good question. I'm not really sure, to tell you the truth. Terriers are bred to go after small prey, which generally burrow under ground. So they will like to dig. Maybe find a Boston mixed with something else that isn't a terrier?
Chihuahuas can be rather yippy (as well as nippy at the vets! They are one-family kind of dogs).
thats a good idea. the bostons were pretty headstrong too - but that was kind of a good trait. What about shitzus or shitzu mixes? I've seen people keep them shaved down almost smooth which would be OK - make them less fru-fru
A "Teddy Bear" (which is a mix of Shih Tzu and something else, but sold as a real breed) is a nice dog. Grooming again.
the dogs would spend a lot of time alone most weekdays - any better than others at handling that?
Keeping the dog in a "puppy cut" would definitely eliminate fru-fru and I think it is a great look. Do you like poodles at all? They can be kept short, are very smart dogs, and may be a little less yappy than others.
Pugs aren't too barky, but they do make snuffly noises.
we had poodles when I was a kid, my wife doesn't seem to like them for some reason.
I have a miniature Australian shepherd that was a cute fluff ball (but not fru-fru). Lots of energy, however.
so basically, if started early on pretty much any dog could be litter box, or turf box trained?
There are a lot of poodle mixes around, too.
Pugs seem cool - do they have a lot of health issues? I've seen some pug/boston mixes - wonder if that would be a good combo health and intelligence wise
Yes, I think you can litter box or turf box or puppy pad train any dog if you get them young. When you potty train, you take them (ideally on a leash) to one spot and tell them to "go potty" (or whatever). Give them a minute or two to go and if they do, then you reward them with a small little treat and some playtime off leash (or for a longer walk outside). If they don't go, then you put them in their crate for 30-60 min and try again. The key is to only reward them when they go in the right place.
Pug mixes are probably healthier. You want one that doesn't have a very squished face and the nostrils should be nice and open. If you anticipate going through a private home, ask if you can meet any of the older pups to get a better idea of temperament. A good breeder should be willing to have a prior customer talk to you about their experience with the dog.
thanks Dr., you've been very helpful
Good luck! I'm sure you will find the perfect pup!
hope so. Thanks

Politicians endorse rail trail plans
Local politicians are supportive of efforts to preserve a rail corridor for public use.
Attempts to maintain freight service between Coldstream and Kelowna have failed and now the federal government has a 30-day window to determine if it will purchase the route from Canadian National.
"It would be unwise for the federal government to do this on its own because it would set a precedent but we have had discussions with municipalities about options for partnering," said Colin Mayes, Okanagan-Shuswap MP.
"The consensus among the provincial government, the MPs from the Okanagan and municipalities is there is a desire to see the corridor preserved."
Mayes is not sure if a proposal to purchase the track can occur before the 30-day deadline ends for Ottawa.
"There is work being done to get that extended so we can get everyone together and consider alternatives," he said.
If the federal government does not acquire the corridor after 30 days, the provincial government then has a similar time period to show interest, which could then be followed by a 30-day period for local governments.
"We've had some preliminary discussions at all levels — First Nations, federal, provincial and municipal," said Eric Foster, Vernon-Monashee MLA.
"Everyone is in favour of coming up with a plan."
However, Foster admits the final deciding factor may be cost.
"It will depend on what kind of deal the group can work out with CN," he said.
If the levels of government do not acquire the land, CN could sell the property off to private interests, such as developers.
The Okanagan Rail Trail Initiative believes a public corridor could attract 600,000 users and generate $6.7 million in spending by tourists by the fifth year.
"We really couldn't ask for a better corridor for a community pathway. It would be a beautiful, safe way for commuters, tourists and residents to enjoy some of the valley's most spectacular scenery," said Brad Clements, OTR director.
"We can make this happen but we need public support sent through the website at www.okanaganrailtrail.ca to let governments know this is important to us."

Get your popcorn ready!
It's another edition of Casual Friday here on Alpha Male FTS and you're going to have to excuse me if I don't make much sense. You see, like every fitness professional worth is salt I believe in a proper warm up for every major event. Some may call it rehearsal, but it's all the same thing. You never go into something important without first doing a dry run or getting familiar with the event. Since Thanksgiving is next Thursday my roommates and myself decided to have a little pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving dinner.
Turkey, venison steaks, mashed taters, mac and cheese with peppers and onions, stuffing, pumpkin cheesecake(!!!) and apple cranberry pie. Not to mention the dozen or so bottles of wine.
It. Was. Glorious.
Ok, now on to what we came here for…
Fitness/Fat Loss
Speaking of the holidays…nobody wants to come out of them looking like a puffy, fat person. That doesn't mean you need to carry around tupperware full of tuna and skip out on the pumpkin cheesecake (seriously, I love that stuff). But it does mean you need to take control of what you eat and do. Check out this article by Lyle McDonald about a few tips and tricks to not be a fatty when 2012 rolls around.
Craig Weller at BarefootFTS likes to write more why we do certain things and how inputs affect our behaviors. Why certain people see food as a status symbol is one of those things that happens all of the time, but when you really think about it makes no sense. I really can't do the article any justice so you're going to have to click over to read it, it's a short one anyways.
Other Random Stuff
Geo Rockwell over at Fitrilla.com got a hold of me earlier in the week and asked if I would like to do an interview with him. At first I just thought it was a joke or he meant some other "Mike Inscho" since it's such a common name. But no, he was serious and he wanted to interview yours truly.
Holy shit I felt like I was a celebrity. Geo's an awesome guy and he's on his way to being very, very successful in the fitness business. He has a beer with his name on it next time I'm out in San Diego.
I love PsyBlog. Knowing how other peoples minds work and how your own mind works will take you much farther in life than if you spent that time playing pokemon or mafiawars or some other bullshit. This article on buying less insurance makes a great point about human behavior that I deeply agree with. That point is that people don't take enough risks. Personally, if something is easy to get/do and there is little risk involved I'm not completely interested. No risk, reward.

Stuck in the Middle – Four Year Strong

Keighley's new Youth World Championship silver medalist Muhammad Ali has vowed to box smarter if he gets the chance to earn revenge on Shakur Stevenson later this summer.
The 17-year-old missed out on a flyweight gold to the American in last week's final in Bulgaria but is determined to prove he can go one better at the Youth Olympics in China.
His achievement in Sofia qualified him for the prestigious event in Nanjing, which takes place from August 16-28, with the pair set to be seeded to meet again in the final.
Ali said: "I'll come back and train even harder but if I face him (Stevenson) again I need to get my tactics right, show more patience and use my head."
The Bradford College student was frustrated by his American opponent, who became the first youngster from his country to win both junior and youth titles.
Stevenson – ranked world number one and boxer of the tournament last year – was docked a point for holding on and admitted his 3-0 success was "the ugliest win ever". Ali felt he deserved to win the contest but was delighted to come back as one of Great Britain's two medalists from a squad of 12, Peter McGrail also gaining a bronze.
The Keighley youngster won five fights, including a semi-final triumph over Azerbaijan's Masud Yusifzada which had the crowd chanting his name.
Ali, who turns 18 next month, said: "It was a great experience – the best one of my boxing career so far. All the training I've put in over the last six or seven years is paying off.
"I had a few butterflies in my first fight but after that I was just buzzing. Hearing everybody chanting was just amazing."
GB team manager James Thomas said: "This is a fantastic achievement for Mo. He has been incredibly focused throughout the competition and has been a credit to the GB team."
