A Shooting Star
Between the tall, darkened evergreen trees
Some twinkling stars shined
In the night brightly..
The black sky is a melody
Where a shooting star is
A trolley to our dreams.

Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) confirms an order for a second "Breakaway Plus" cruise ship from Meyer Werft of Papenburg, Germany for delivery in spring 2017.
Along with the first Breakaway Plus ship, which is scheduled for delivery in October 2015, these two new vessels will be the largest in the line's fleet at approximately 163,000 gross tons and 4,200 passenger berths each and will be similar in design and innovation to the line's current Breakaway class, the first of which, Norwegian Breakaway, launched in New York in early May.
The combined contract cost of the two Breakaway Plus class ships is approximately €1.4 billion. The company has export credit financing in place that provides financing for 80 percent of the contract price.
"The incredible response we've received from guests, travel agents and media regarding Norwegian Breakaway only reinforced our decision to add a second Breakaway Plus vessel to our fleet," said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian Cruise Line's chief executive officer. "With groundbreaking elements, yet to be announced, and an additional deck to incorporate further innovations, our two Breakaway Plus ships will provide guests even more ways to experience all that the new Norwegian has to offer."

Torino, Italy's Simona Cordero paints mesmerizing watercolor settings of common childhood stories but manages to see them in a light that is neither exhausted nor exhaustive. Take for instance, Cinderella (below), which is Cinderella when one studies closely, but could simply just be a fanciful everyday situation. Or take the rabbit with hearts checkering its body, and one might see an Alice In Wonderland influence, but then again — not really. With this ability to weave in and out of reality and an illustrated world, Cordero truly paints some endearing images that make you think her characters are definitely having more fun than you are… ESPECIALLY the pirate on the zebra and the sailor girl on the whale.

WASHINGTON -- U.S. President Barack Obama is celebrating championship wins by two Los Angeles sports teams in a White House ceremony.
Obama honoured the Los Angeles Kings of the National Hockey League, whose Stanley Cup was on display in the East Room. He also welcomed the LA Galaxy, the championship Major League Soccer team.
Galaxy player Landon Donovan gave Obama a soccer ball that the president bounced on his head. Obama was also presented with a jersey emblazoned with his name.
Obama says both Los Angeles teams have remarkable comeback stories, but said he wishes his hometown of Chicago were winning championships, instead.
The teams are also hosting an exercise clinic for children on the South Lawn. The clinic supports first lady Michelle Obama's anti-childhood obesity effort and includes children from across the country.

'No clear rules' at Merc – Hamilton
Lewis Hamilton says Mercedes has not needed to speak to its drivers in the wake of the team orders row in Hungary. Mercedes asked Hamilton to move over for team-mate Nico Rosberg – who was on a different strategy – but declined to do so and eventually finished ahead of Rosberg. After the race, Mercedes admitted it had made the wrong call during the race, and asked if the rules between himself and Rosberg were now clear, Hamilton replied: "There are no clear rules that have been set. "The only discussion I had was a day or two after the race, there were some things on my mind, the things that had happened with the car. I really wanted to understand how they happened, what...

The Oscars is happening on Sunday night in Los Angeles, California. Will it be a good show? Or one that's boring and full of long-winded speeches? – EPA
Oscar-winning ideas on how the Academy Awards show can improve.
WE'RE three days away from the Oscars, which means we're about three days and 10 seconds away from the first tweet complaining about the show.
But why wait?
Let's be clear: we're not wishing failure on this year's Oscar telecast or predicting that host Ellen DeGeneres will bomb. When it comes to the Oscars, we're always hopeful, like Linus waiting for the Great Pumpkin or a Los Angeles resident dreaming of decent public transportation. And then the show starts and Seth MacFarlane spends 16 minutes making a joke about how he's going to fail at the job and then goes on to do just that for the next three hours and ... mmmph ... it's wait until next year.
But it's going to be different on March 2, right? Producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron are back on the job, as is DeGeneres, returning as host seven years after her first turn. We're sure they're going to put all that experience to good use. But, you know, just in case, here are a few ideas for a more perfect night, both for this year and the future.
Ramp up the energy, Ellen
We enjoyed your low-key charm back in 2007. Asking Steven Spielberg to snap your picture with Clint Eastwood? Adorbs. But there's a fine line between unpretentious and just a little dull. Don't let MacFarlane's failure last year keep you from stirring the pot. As long as you're funny, no one will mind the barbs. (Publicly, at least.)
Pick a host. Then stay the course
We've gone from the "OMG! Oscars heart young people" Anne Hathaway / James Franco debacle to nostalgic, Old Hollywood Billy Crystal ("We've cornered the 70- to 85-year-old market!") then, last year, to naughty (MacFarlane) to this year's return to nice. The Golden Globes, meanwhile, are enjoying record ratings, having established a consistent tone by employing the same great hosts year after year. (Ricky Gervais ran things from 2009 to 2011; Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are signed next year for a third straight go-around.) The audience knows what to expect and actually looks forward to what's coming. Crazy, huh?
So, if DeGeneres kills it this year, bring her back. If not, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences needs to find the 21st century equivalent of Crystal, Johnny Carson and Bob Hope – hosts who skillfully presided over the Oscars for years. Since ABC has the telecast through 2020, it's not going to be Jimmy Fallon, who amped up the fun as Emmy host in 2010. So why not Jimmy Kimmel, who, at the 2012 Emmys, displayed a winning goofiness that played both at home and the room itself?
Change the venue
"The Oscars used to be a good time," says Robert Osborne, author of 85 Years Of The Oscar: The Official History Of The Academy Awards. "But that was back in the early years when it was a banquet and people used to be able to eat and drink and relax. It was a party everyone wanted to attend. Now no one wants to go unless they have to."
So why not move it back to a ballroom? Scaling back on the starchiness of a theatre setting would do wonders for the vibe in the room and, by extension, the show itself. If, as Tina Fey tells the Los Angeles Times, "high levels of stress are shooting out of just about everyone" at the Oscars, a cocktail – or a plate of Wolfgang Puck appetisers – might help.
Keep it at three hours
The Oscars used to clock in under three hours regularly. Then, beginning in 1974, the show began to stretch. Osborne attributes the bloat to added performance numbers and actors who believe that time limits for speeches "apply to everyone else but them."
So how do you trim the fat?
Move the shorts categories
They exist to honour up-and-comers – and to screw up everyone's Oscar pools. But how about a separate ceremony where the work can be celebrated at greater length and mentorships can be established?
Not all songs are created equal
And songwriters would be the first to tell you this. Some songs fit nicely within the context of a film but aren't exactly performance show-stoppers. Others, like Adele's Skyfall, rank as moments that will draw viewers. This year's plan to have all four of the nominees perform might seem like overkill, but it's a good call. U2 – can't go wrong. Karen O's tender, bittersweet The Moon Song will get the home viewers to stop chatting and pay attention. Frozen's Let It Go? That'll get the kids to watch. Pharrell Williams? Great, his hat could bring in an audience all on its own.
Streamline the Best Picture
Or eliminate them altogether. How about just a clip reel ping-ponging between great moments from all the nominated movies?
Do keep the "In memoriam" tribute, though it can celebrate without being so sombre. May we suggest that someone (Karen O?) sing We'll Meet Again? It's sentimental without being maudlin, and Stanley Kubrick liked it enough to put it in the last scene of Dr. Strangelove. Now that is movie magic. – Los Angeles Times/McClatchy-Tribune Information Services

Seriously, who bets on a marriage?
NEW YORK -- As the number of Republicans declaring themselves potential presidential candidates has begun to look like a conga line without music, hope lingered that somewhere unnoticed was a brilliant dark horse biding his sweet time.
Can prominent right-wingers like Newt Gingrich and Grover Norquist get along with the very liberal NAACP? Yes, they can, at least on the high cost of prisons.
For a total of 20 hours over the past several weeks -- and thanks to the Friends of the Kershaw County Library's recent book sale -- I played a movie in my car.
Can prominent right-wingers like Newt Gingrich and Grover Norquist get along with the very liberal NAACP? Yes, they can, at least on the high cost of prisons.
Unwanted computers, printers, televisions, and other devices comprise one of the nation's fastest-growing waste streams. Inspired by the concerns of several constituents, I advocated and sponsored legislation over the course of several years to address this problem. Through collaboration with other legislators, manufacturers, recyclers, and the environmental community this effort culminated in the passage of legislation in 2010 that makes South Carolina a leader in responsibly managing this waste while protecting our environment and growing our economy.
It's budget season at City Hall. This is the time of year that we review our previous budget and formulate a new one. I'm proud to say that our 2010-2011 numbers are projected to come in under budget, and our new budget will pass without requiring any tax increases.
Someone sent me an Internet video of two soldiers in Afghanistan demonstrating how to make coffee using a device called a heat pack. It was entertaining though the language was pretty salty, as soldiers' language can be.
What would America look like if the Tea Party movement ran it? You can get a good glimpse in Republican Rep. Paul Ryan's budget-balancing plan. Now, I wonder, will Democrats come up with a better plan? Or will they simply wait for Republicans to destroy themselves?
Can you think of only one word that accurately defines you?
NEW YORK -- So why do Republicans hate art, the elderly and children?
After having been involved in the political and governmental life in South Carolina since 1963, when I accepted a position on the staff of Gov. Donald Russell, I am still constantly amazed at how long awful ideas persist in our State.
A few weeks back, my wife showed me a newspaper article about a television ad running in North Carolina by a group called "NC Together." In it, the narrator touts the fact that North Carolina has a world class education system that has attracted business and industry to the state and advocates for not making deep cuts to educational and other resources in order to keep the North Carolina's business climate a competitive one. At the end of the ad, a picture of a "Welcome to South Carolina" sign is flashed and the narrator says, "There is another way ...
When President Clinton signed landmark welfare-reform legislation in 1996, he said it would "end welfare as we know it." Wrong verb. More accurately, it changed welfare as we know it.
Ronald Reagan was already in office by the time I turned 18 in 1983 and was eligible to vote. The next year, however, I cast my first vote for president: for Reagan to have a second term.
When I think back on the days of my youth, that time when I had the privilege of traveling on the NASCAR circuit, it would be hard to pick a lesson learned that was more important than another.
I couldn't be prouder of "Harry Potter" actress Emma Watson if she were my own daughter.
• My friend Waylon Fortenberry of Chesterfield County tells me that Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Palestine.
WASHINGTON -- Without prior knowledge or intent, I recently was inducted into a club I had no interest in joining, especially in light of the $200 initiation fee.
I really like Camden and Kershaw County. In the nine months I've lived and worked here I've met some wonderful friends, acquaintances, news sources and coworkers. Those who have lived here all their lives may not realize what a jewel they have here. I have lived and worked in several places over the years and I know the difference.
This week more than 800 movers and shakers from 10 Upstate counties gathered in Greenville. It was an amazing event because of (1) what they said, (2) what they did not say and (3) what it means for the rest of the state.
WASHINGTON -- Have America's public schools gotten worse over the years?
Everyone has a special niche, that one role that they execute best. Over the past three years, I have discovered that I am a great listener and problem solver. I listen and then I offer my advice to anyone who opens up to me.
When was the last time you tested the smoke alarms in your home? Was it last week? Last month? A year ago?

METAIRIE, La. (AP) — The New Orleans Pelicans say 7-foot center Jeff Withey has signed his rookie contract.
Citing team policy, the club is not releasing the terms of the deal with the former Kansas standout.
Withey was drafted by Portland in the second round of the draft, 39th overall, and then traded to New Orleans as part of a three-team deal that also sent guard Tyreke Evans from Sacramento to the Pelicans, while New Orleans dealt center Robin Lopez to Portland and Greivis Vasquez to the Kings.
Withey played four years at Kansas, setting the all-time Big 12 mark for blocked shots with 312. He also was the conference's defensive player of the year the past two seasons.
SEP 22 This bit of video from Saturday's LSU game is appalling, whether you're a fan of LSU or not. In it, you can see a Mississippi State player literally stomping on two LSU players during the game, which his team won. Twice the player, Dillon Day, can be seen jumping on the abdomen of LSU players during the game, the Picayune reports here. Day is a senior from West Monroe.
SEP 22 Whether you like him or not, you have to admit that Edwin Edwards has an irresistible story - on so many levels. Here's a post from CNN, which also has been unable to resist. His comments are classic EWE.
SEP 22 Blogger Tom Aswell, who spent about 50 years working for "mainstream" media, gives the Advocate what-for in this post. At issue is an editorial the Advocate printed last week, pretending that State Police Commander Mike Edmonson is some kind of saint for his part in the amendment debacle. The problems start with the paper's inability to spell Edmonson's name correctly (a common Advocate problem - inexplicably) and go downhill from there, he writes.
SEP 22 Blogger Crazy Crawfish is reflecting back on what was discussed during the Rising Tide conference, at least in terms of education. He's broken down some of the basic tenants of the current "reform" agenda in education, and explained why these ideas are flawed.
SEP 22 Six of the "privatization" agreements created by the Jindal administration for public hospitals are being renegotiated, at the order of Medicare/Medicaid officials, the Advocate reports here. Lafayette's public hospital is included, the story reports. Part of the order? No "side agreements," the story says. Hmmm.
SEP 22 Blogger Robert Mann tells an amazing story in this post. Cries for revenge and vengeance may be the usual response to violent death, but he's telling the story of people who have, instead, practiced forgiveness and grace.
SEP 22 Seems like there is nothing the interwebs likes more than listing stuff, and ranking states for good and bad things is a common practice. Columnist Jim Beam takes a look at some of the recent good and bad rankings that Louisiana has racked up.
SEP 22 Blogger Ian McGibboney is writing about the Adrian Peterson case in this post. A lot of people are saying "My parents spanked me, and I'm fine," but they usually are not fine at all, Ian says. (The best example: Sean Hannity.) It's not OK to hit kids, Ian says, and it needs to stop.
SEP 20 This isn't the first story, and it won't be the last, written about the apparent conflict between Bobby Jindal's biology degree from Brown and the far right evangelicals who (he perceives) hold the key to his burning, blinding desire to be President. But this one's on ThinkProgress.org, a left-leaning blog, and gives an interesting view of how his dilemma might be attacked in a campaign.
SEP 20 Jeremy Alford examines the Family Forum's influence on the Legislature in this post. The ultra conservative lobby's annual "report card" keeps up with how well our elected officials are following its dictates, he reports, but also shows us how conservative our Legislature has become.
SEP 20 This post on the Dads Gone Wild blog is an ode to the education bloggers who have been akin to voices crying in the wilderness on the subject of "reform." He compares his experience, listening to the "reformers" and wondering why anybody gave them any weight, with loving punk rock in the 1970s. It's an interesting read.

katiesendeavours said: Hi there, I've noticed you don't particularly seem to enjoy your bratty traits. May I ask if there's any reason for that? I'm quite bratty myself, purely because I love it when sir puts me in my place, and I just adore that side of myself. Thanks :)
Such a subjective word.
I'm a handful at times, I know this. I tease, I'm very lighthearted. I'll call out things that make me laugh, even if they're at His expense. I'm impulsive and sometimes make shit decisions. And I fully expect Him to find me hysterically adorable… but to also take matters into his own hands if he feels I've crossed a line or have gotten too sassy. (Read: smart-mouthed.) He needs me to be respectful and obedient, but I need him on his toes. And the right man for me will appreciate and want that, too.
What I DON'T do, and what I view as bratty, is top. Test him. Act in a way that gets me a particular result or action from him. That's not Dominance or submission… it's manipulation. And that includes defying or disobeying because I 'want' to be punished. That's not punishment… that's a reward for shitty, very NONsubmissive behavior.
Now 'sassy' on the other hand… that might be my word for what others call bratty. Humor. Snark. Pushing him with a smile on my face… just… to see… what he'll… do :-D NOT disobedience leading to punishment or the breakdown of the relationship, but PERSONALITY… that could very well lead to 'fun'ishment.
This is a perfect summary. My view on 'bratty' as well.
And here is my view on when a sub acts "bratty" for attention…

#CommonCore This is how the Government gets the unemployment rate.
Common core is so over complicated and makes no sense to use it in everyday life.
I actually disagree. When teaching math it sometimes helps kids break down large numbers into more manageable pieces. Would it be easy to add 8 and 5, sure but when teaching a concept you can't throw large numbers into the mix and expect it to make sense.
By making round numbers (like 10's) that are easier to add to you make the problem easier AND you can then explain why you got the answer you did instead of just saying something along the lines of "because thats how I added."
Old school adders can say what they want because thats the way they were taught (I was as well) but I do think this system makes more sense in the long run once you understand it.

It's a thank-you present to my BF's aunt who was hosting us for Easter.
I designed my own pattern inspired (very very loosely!) by Made by Rae's lickety split-bag: http://www.made-by-rae.com/2009/07/lickety-split-bag-pattern-pdf.html
(I didn't have the 6$ and enjoyed the process of designing and understanding how the all thing worked)
I chose dark colors because it stains less and I thought it more fitting for an older lady.

Three arrested for drugs during theft investigation
Columbia police, looking for a stolen television, discovered a stash of drugs at a home Friday night.
John Hardy, Jr., 29, was a suspect in a Sunday theft from the Walmart on West Broadway in Columbia. Officers arrived at a home on Oak Lawn Drive Friday to conduct a search warrant.
Inside the home, investigators found methamphetamine, heroin, prescription pills and drug paraphernalia. They also found a handgun.

Challenge to stormwater permits halts Cypress Creek mall, again
Send this to a friend
- Michael Hinman
- Staff Writer
WESLEY CHAPEL -- Groundbreaking for the proposed Cypress Creek Town Center, already measuring delays by years, could be set back months more now that a challenge has been filed over wetland issues.
The challenge was filed just before the Southwest Florida Water Management District's governing board was expected to give its final stamp of approval to the 1.3 million-square-foot, open-air project by Ohio-based Richard E. Jacobs Group Inc. It forced the Swiftmud governing board to pull the item off its agenda Tuesday, said spokesman Michael Molligan.
Swiftmud now has to determine if the challenge, filed by Robert Jones who owns property bordering the site, has merit.
"They (Robert Jones and his attorney Ralf Brookes) would have to demonstrate that they have standing, that they are impacted by the decisions," Molligan said. "Then they have to make the allegation that somehow the district is not correctly applying its rules or not following its statutory charge."
Tallahassee may become involved
If the challenge is considered insufficient, Jones and Brookes will have a chance to strengthen their challenge before the October governing board meeting. If they fail, Cypress Creek is automatically added to the Oct. 24 agenda where its environmental resource permit will be considered, a key approval in the process.
Swiftmud officials, however, could also find that the challenge has merit. If that happens, there is no set timetable on when the mall developers will be able to clear the necessary hurdles, Molligan said. The challenge would be forwarded to the state's Division of Administrative Hearings in Tallahassee, which would be responsible for setting hearing dates, collecting depositions and making final determinations to Swiftmud's governing board. Swiftmud staff has recommended approval for Jacobs Group's plan.

My mistake.

Surely fourm member there's no mistake, you have been on this website and a contributor long enough to know how it works. You like everyone else have a view, and you have the right like the rest of us on how you wish to express that view. The only point is that at some stage, people need to agree to disagree, and not always accept what is being forced on them by another member, usually as a fact?.
I suppose we are all guilty of that at some time in our lives?.

Whoops, I have just noticed. Was the above remark posted at 8.14AM by fourm member in response to his yesterday's 02/10/2013 9.22AM post " Is anyone STILL reading the Mail" and the Forum Editor's page 3 comment there?.

Of course the best way to save money on food is to be sensible about 'Best Before' dates. 'Best Before' means exactly that it doesn't mean that the food suddenly becomes uneatable the instant the date passes.
I used to work in the Flour Milling industry and bags of flour produced on the same day had widely differing Best Before dates. Self Raising flour had a 6 month date and Plain Flour an 18 month date. The reason is that the raising ingredients in Self Raising Flour slowly loose their effectiveness over time hence the shorter date, but there is nothing wrong with the flour itself that a teaspoon of baking powder won't remedy.

Christmas spending 'impressive'
Relevant offers
Cantabrians have left it late to snap up last-minute Christmas bargains.
Paymark figures released yesterday showed the region's electronic transactions for the week ending December 23 were up $11.3 million on the same period last year.
The $152.5m spend - an 8 per cent increase - was well above the 2.5 per cent national average.
Nelson increased 0.6 per cent, Marlborough 3.6 per cent, West Coast 1.3 per cent, South Canterbury 3.3 per cent, Otago 2.8 per cent, while Southland dropped 0.9 per cent.
Auckland/Northland spending was up 1.9 per cent, while Wellingtonians proved a frugal bunch with the spending in the capital dropping 1.6 per cent on last year.
The two regions still spent more than $650m combined.
East Coast shoppers spent an additional $800,000, lifting Gisborne's average 6.9 per cent.
Paymark chief executive officer Simon Tong said Canterbury's spending growth against the other regions was impressive.
Canterbury's December increase was nearly double the national average and sales the past week more than triple.
Other areas had fallen away in the past two days, but Canterbury remained strong.
Sales at garden centres, hardware, floor covering and furniture, and department stores this month increased more than 20 per cent with last year, which was likely linked to the Christchurch rebuild.
''You have to assume there's some aspect of that in there. You're just not seeing that same level of growth across the other regions,'' Tong said.
''Canterbury has done very well against the other regions, there's no doubt.''
A 7.7 per cent increase on Boxing Day last year compared with 2010 suggested Canterbury's figures were a ''genuine increase'' rather than an improvement on otherwise low numbers.
''I'd say 2011 and 2012, based on these numbers, you've got to say a reasonable amount of the underlying growth is there. It looks pretty positive and from our point of view, it's a good result.''
The warm weather in Canterbury played its part also, Tong believed.
''[Auckland] has had rubbish weather because of the end of the cyclone. I think that does definitely affect people's moods and their desire to get out there.''
The figures suggested Boxing Day sales would be especially fruitful for retailers.
''If we're right about some of that earlier growth being down to [the rebuild], you'd assume [shoppers] would have a crack on Boxing Day too,'' he said.
Tom Rossiter, 9, was at Westfield Riccarton yesterday picking a Christmas present for his mother.
He said he did not find it too difficult choosing her a gift.
His father, Mark Rossiter, who was helping his son shop, said they decided before they went to the mall to buy "the first thing we saw".

Planet Green
There are two ways in which coral reefs grow.
First, they grow by secreting more limestone around the base of their cup. This creates the limestone skeleton that grows outward and upward.
Second, some coral polyps reproduce new polyps by creating clones using asexual reproduction, while others procreate sexually using eggs and sperm.
Once new polyps appear, they float to the bottom of the sea floor and attach to a solid surface, either starting their own colony or joining a pre-existing colony. Polyps connect to each other at their base and are connected laterally using a tissue called coenosarc. Polyps combined with this tissue make up the living portion of the coral reef that can be seen by the naked eye.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Hundreds of people are in Austin to lobby Texas lawmakers to support equality for lesbians, gays and the transgendered, including the right to marry.
Supporters of Equality Texas rallied on the steps of the Capitol Monday, praising Democratic lawmakers who have introduced bills to have both gay parents listed on birth certificates. The group also supports bills to make discrimination by employers and insurance companies illegal.
The bills stand little chance in the Republican-controlled Legislature. Gov. Rick Perry adamantly opposes gay marriage and has likened homosexuality to alcoholism.
El Paso Rep. Mary Gonzalez told the crowd the fight for equal rights is tough but needed. The Democrat describes herself as pansexual, a term that describes people who are attracted to people of different gender identities.
