For a long time I used to go to bed early. Sometimes, when I had put out my candle, my eyes would close so quickly that I had not even time to say "I'm going to sleep." And half an hour later the thought that it was time to go to sleep would awaken me; I would try to put away the book which, I imagined, was still in my hands, and to blow out the light; I had been thinking all the time, while I was asleep, of what I had just been reading, but my thoughts had run into a channel of their own, until I myself seemed actually to have become the subject of my book: a church, a quartet, the rivalry between François I and Charles V.

One-year-old Zakar Sheikh has been found safe after his parents and Gilmer police say someone stole a van with the child inside.
Andrew Crane, 31, of Houston is charged with aggravated kidnapping, abandoning or endangering a child in imminent danger of bodily injury, tampering or fabricating physical evidence, and unauthorized use of a vehicle. He is being held in the Upshur County Jail on $285,000.
Around 12:30 this afternoon, police said Andrew Crane stole a van at the Texaco on Highway 271. Zakar's mother Amber, who owns the Texaco with her husband Nasir, was unloading groceries and saw a white male by the door of the store. Once inside, she said she then heard tires squealing. She went back outside to find her van gone. She had a store employee call authorities, and then attempted to chase the van in a customer's car.
Just before 1 p.m., Zakar was found on Holly Road in Upshur County. He is doing just fine. About 20 minutes later, police found the van on Lime Tree Road, near where Zakar was dropped off, but the suspect was not with the vehicle. Crane was eventually found at his friend's home around 3:35 p.m. and arrested on aggravated robbery charges. He was taken to ETMC in Gilmer to treat self-inflicted cut wounds before being transported to the Upshur County Jail.
KLTV has learned Crane was in the hospital in Gilmer on Monday. Police tell us he was on drugs and having suicidal thoughts.
Gilmer police said they are not pursuing charges against the parents. Police said the mother was going back and forth between the van and the store, and was never too far away. They said it was inappropriate to file abandonment charges.

What's this:
The wine is almost pink in colour and there is a steady stream of fizz.
The nose is typical enough of the area: a small touch of vanilla, bread crust, yet oddly enough the fruit seems more pear than apple dominated. There is a hint of earthiness and figs also.
On the palate the mousse shows strong and small. There is fine fruit and fine acidity backing it up but it somewhat lacks intensity on the mid-palate. The aftertaste is however nice and long and there is even a small hint of minerality creeping in which was not noticable on the nose or mid-palate. Nice stuff and correct, but not profound.

"The beginning of freedom is the realization that you are not the "thinker." The moment you start watching the thinker, a higher level of consciousness becomes activated. You then begin to realize that there is a vast realm of intelligence beyond thought, that thought is only a tiny aspect of that intelligence. You also realize that all the things that truly matter - beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace - arise from beyond the mind.
You begin to awaken"

Late night snacks not only pack on pounds but can also drastically affect how well you sleep! Askmen.com compiled this list of 10 foods to avoid before you hit the sack:
Ice Cream
While it may be your absolute favorite comfort food, it's loaded with fat that your body won't have any chance to burn off. Plus, sugar it contains will just get stored and turned to fat, too. It's also been discovered that eating high sugar foods before bed causes nightmares!
Celery is a natural diuretic. That means it's going to make you have to hit the restroom more than usual. If you take in too much of any diuretic before bed your body might wake you for a pee break!
Pastas are straight carbohydrates, all of which will turn into fat. Plus, things added to pasta-oils, cheeses and heavy cream or tomato sauces--will only add to the inches of your love handles. And, most pasta has a high glycemic index, which means it's more likely to play with your blood shugar levels, delay sleep and wake you up at night.
The layer of tomato sauce has high levels of acidity, which is just another catalyst for acid reflux, but in general, greasy toppings will stir up heartburn.
Candy Bars
If you dislike nightmares, let the candy bars lie. A recent study found that 7 of 10 people who eat junk foods like candy bas before bed are more likely to be prone to nightmares. The hypothesis is that high levels of sugar create more nightmarish brain waves.
Cereals often contain high amounts of refined sugar and are full of carbohydrates. That might set you off on a bit of a spike and crash in your blood sugar levels, which is not the ideal way to put your body at peace before bedtime. Opt for cereals that are whole grain and have low sugar.
Garlic is known as a "hot herb", and along with spicy food, it tends to have some properties in it that can cause heartburn. It's known to sometimes have the side effect of upsettng the stomach, so if you have a weak stomach or are vulnerable to acid reflux, the last thing you want to do is light the fire right before you lie down to rest.
Dark Chocolate
Dark chocolate is a sneaky source of caffeine, which is known to perk you up. Plus, it's loaded with stimulants that are known to make your heart race a little bit.
While alcohol does help you get to sleep, it doesn't lead to long lasting and refreshing rest. It actually interferes with the restorative functions of sleep, often paving the way for shallow sleep and several awakenings throughout the night.
Red Meat
The problem is that red meat is loaded with proteins and fats that will keep your body hard at work throughout the night. To achieve a deeper sleep, you ideally want all your systems at peace, and meat takes longer to digest than any other foods.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by txrunner My fave! I run about 5 days out of the week, slowly increasing my mileage (I'm at 4 miles a day, at about an 8:30 pace) and these shoes are great in stability and comfort. I used to have Climacool running shoes, which have relatively very little support. I started having really painful IT band issues & realized I have overpronation issues because of my knees having the tendency to bend inward more than normal, which made me look into these shoes! Since wearing these shoes (and doing IT band stretches and foam rolling) I've had zero IT band irritation. It took about a day or two to get used to the slightly different running gait the shoes gave me (a good thing) but I feel like I could run for miles on miles. The first time I wore them I actually felt like they were propelling me forward. As for look, I was kind of worried about the chunky look of the outside white sole that faces inward, but the gray curves that run through it break it up nicely, so it actually doesn't look chunky at all! I'm not really a fan of the bright neon shoe laces, so I'm planning on changing those out with purple ones, but other than that these shoes are hot! November 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by 2manyshuz First Reaction My go-to everyday 3-5 mile shoe is the Nike LunarGlide. Support (so they claim) and very soft ride. I felt as though I needed more support for upcoming weekend long runs when the mileage climbs past 5-6 and I remembered that I used to wear Sequence 2 and 3 so I was eager to try the revamped 6. I ran seven miles with some walk breaks in mile 7 due to the humid Florida climate but I had no issues with achy knees etc. The cushioning is not as soft in the heel as the LunarGlides but it isn't supposed to be and it felt just fine. I could definitely tell that this is a cushioned shoe. I will follow up as mileage grows. I am a mild overpronator, averaging 15 miles a week but bought the shoes in anticipation of longer weekend runs on the horizon. August 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by max_spandex Not sure about recent changes I've bought the Supernova Sequence for 4 years for the superior comfort and support they provide. An excellent shoe! This time the shoes are quite different, much lighter, more flexible, and sitting lower on the ankle. I'm not sure yet how these changes are affecting my stride; will need more workouts to know for sure. The shoe is still comfortable, but with less support, my right foot tends to twist and yesterday this was causing pain. Not sure yet if I can wear this shoe. Normally would give 5 stars, but due to recent changes, giving 4 stars this time. Note on size: with running shoes, I go up a size for a little extra toe room. April 30, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5Â by KrisF A new design and fit? I have been using this running shoe for years. Every time I re-order it is a "no brainer." I get the same size, same style. However, I am returning them because the have changed the overall fit. They are narrow and lack arch support. I will have to return to the running store to get a re-fit. I have searching for an older model online because these are my favorite. Very bummed. November 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Palma C. great shoes I love Adidas brand. They are great shoes, very comfortable, durable, trendy. This latest pair is the new addition to my collection. I bought the Supernova Sequence 6 Shoes in Glow. On the picture, it looked more like yellow, so I was expecting a yellow pair. I was a little disappointed when I saw this neon glow color. It was completely my fault, and there was nothing wrong with my order. I did make peace with the new color, and many people complemented on it already. So now, I'm very. happy with the color choice. My shoe size is 8.5. I ordered an 8.5, good size, good fit. I would highly recommend. April 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5Â by TAR Supernova Sequence 6 The sides of the shoe / laces are not as high / supportive to the upper foot as previous versions of the Sequence shoe. Does not feel as "supportive" to the entire foot. January 6, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5Â by lifetime runner upset have worn supernova or response for 15 years. I run 30 to 50 miles per week. This shoe is killing my feet. The plastic shoelace guides and the flat laces cause the shoe to slip and not be stable. I switched out the laces, and it helped some, but not completely. Also the shoe doesn't go up on the heel as high, which also makes it less stable. I am tying my laces so tight, it is causing pain on the top of my feet. I am also getting plantar facsitis. I know its the shoe, because as soon as I started wearing them I started having the problem.There has also been material taken from the upper to make them more breathable, but that also takes the stability away. I don't know what shoe to buy now. Tried on the Supernova glide. They feel good, but same lace problem. April 28, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5Â by kellie_kellie Wish they had NOT redesigned these!!! I agree with some of the other reviews on this board. I was originally fitted with these shoes at a run shop several years back, and I absolutely loved them. I just kept going back and buying the same ones, because I knew that I could count on them. Something changed this time around. They redesigned these, and my feet have never hurt so bad. It feels like there is no support, either in the arch of my foot or the ball of my foot. I am SO disappointed. I feel I need to look for an alternative. December 31, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5Â by DaniC12987 NOT MiCoach compatible The description says that these shoes are micoach compatible. However they are not. They were the only ones that had all the technology I needed AND the micoach. So I thought. RETURN! April 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Running Gram Great shoe I needed a new shoe for the upcoming half marathon. I've always preferred Adidas, and have run my last three halves in the Bounce, which I loved. When I was unable to get another Bounce, I was impressed with the stats on the Supernova Sequence. From the first run, I've been impressed with the perfect fit, comfort in stride (I'm a heal striker), and relief I am feeling on my knees. One word describes this shoe- Awesome, May 10, 2014

"It was dirty... and it was not the best," said one female Denby High School student.
That's how many described the condition of Denby and plenty of other DPS schools - last year.
But that was before major renovations began at several existing schools. The district will also be adding a new facility for the start of the 2012 school year.
"New schools - or totally renovated - these kids deserve it," said DPS Emergency Financial Manager Roy Roberts. "They deserve to see that we care about them, and this community has really stood up and said to them - we care about you, you're special."
Denby is one of nine schools that will be heavily renovated this fall. Another brand new school will also open. The upgrades and additions are meant to boost morale, as well as improve the quality of education in the district.
Roberts got his first look at the beginning stages of Denby's renovations Friday. Parents also attended the tour.
"For her to walk into a clean system (is great)," said Joyce Parrott, a Denby High parent. "And (it's important) for the office to be accessible to me - because I'm a very interested parent in what's going on with the school and the activities."

An 11-month-old girl was in "stable" condition at an area hospital Tuesday morning after she was ejected from an SUV during an auto accident in the River North neighborhood.
The infant was ejected about 2:10 a.m., after a semi-truck blew a red light in the 600 block of North Dearborn Street, striking the SUV that she was a passenger in, said police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro.
The infant, who was being held by a female in the back seat of the SUV at the time of collision, was in "stable" condition at Lurie Children's Hospital, police said.
No citations had been issued as of 4:30 a.m. as the crash remained under investigation.
Further details were not available.

KB: Do you currently work in a salon?
DS: No, I'm strictly freelance. Sometimes I work on set, and sometimes it's a hotel or house call. I go where I'm needed. Sometimes I'm traveling on a press junket with the talent. On the job….
KB: What do you do on a press junket?
DS: It's fun, but a lot of work! Press junkets usually take place at a hotel. The hair and make-up artists are always the first to show up to get the talent ready for a day of roomto- room interviews. I'll be there all day, following the actor, touching up their hair or make-up every few minutes. They need to have the same look all day. For photo shoots and magazine covers, I'll get to change the looks and collaborate with the actor, magazine photo editor and the photographer.
KB: What is the difference between working with actors and highprofile men vs. 'regular guys?'
DS: The difference in working with an actor is they tend to be very up on their grooming skills already, but I'll still do a consultation if it's the first time I've worked with them. I focus on eyebrows, ear hair, nose hair, beard trimming, and skin care. Lucky for them they're already good looking, and only need a bit of cosmetics—a little concealer and some powder. It's important the skin looks moist, but not greasy. I pay attention to their nails, chest and armpit hair for photo shoots. Every man needs a little grooming.
KB: What's in your professional kit?
DS: Everything you need in the salon, and also a flatiron, Velcro rollers, round brush and, of course, styling products. Many celebrity men have longer hair than salon guys do, so the round brushes and rollers come in handy.
KB: How do you feel about nose hair?
DS: What I do is a bit different from barbering from the neck up—often I need to work head to toe. It doesn't bother me to trim nose hair, it's part of the job.
KB: How much time do you usually spend getting one of your clients ready for an appearance?
DS: I'll spend anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. It all depends on what kind of job is at hand that day. Sometimes I'll be asked to work with hand-tied lace front wigs. For example, Will Ferrell liked to do his Anchorman press interviews in his Ron Burgundy character. So I worked with a wig, moustache, and sideburns consistently, for every appearance.
KB: How does your freelance grooming work differ from working in a salon?
DS: You can't make a mistake with this kind of work—it's going live, on television or oncamera. You have to be extremely skilled in what you're doing. It's not just the hair. These men need both hair and make-up. Yes, many of my clients are extremely handsome, but each one of my clients is equally important to me. On the Hollywood factor…

Don't believe everything you read, especially if it's on Twitter. Jeep announced on Twitter that it was "sold to Cadillac" Tuesday and on Monday, Burger King merged with McDonald's -- not really; it was all part of an elaborate hacking hoax.
The group Anonymous, which is widespread and does not have much of allegiance to anyone, claimed responsibility.
In the cases of Jeep and Burger King, tech expert Shawn Busteed said that the hackers were just having some good old-fashioned fun. But, perhaps most alarmingly, he says there was really no way to stop the cyber pranksters.
Once Burger King became king of its Twitter domain again, an employee tweeted it has "been an interesting day here at Burger King." and, in the end, despite getting hacked, the hamburger chain happily swallowed up many more highly coveted Twitter followers.
Same story with Jeep.
"This particular case, it kind of worked out for the brand," says Wilson Tang, a tech security expert. "They regained control of their brand and had 30 percent more followers."
Back in the day, it was all about selling papers. And bad press was better than no press at all.
It seems, over the years, not much has changed, but now it's all about the twitter followers.
Maybe that is why networks MTV and BET pulled off a marketing stunt of their own, claiming to be hacked themselves.
"They jumped on board and purposely did it," Busteed said. "They acted like Twitter accounts got hacked and they put all this fake information to get added buzz, and picked up ton of total new followers."
So, if behemoth companies like Burger King and Jeep can get so easily hijacked in cyberspace, we wondered if it's just as easy to do to you.
"If you try hard enough with a username and password it's very easy to hack into a system," Tang says.
Busteed added: "It's just as easy to grab my Twitter account but at the end of the day no one really wants to tweet on my Twitter account of 500 followers."

You might not be familiar with the term 'Z-Movie,' but if you grew up in the 90's, chances are you've seen one. They're the beyond-low-budget monstrosities that teased you from the walls of the mom-and-pop video store. Usually, the films themselves could never live up to the pictures on the videotape boxes (because this was way before your fancy 'Digital Video Discs' and 'Blu-Rays') but occasionally you'd find something truly unique. 'WEIRDO FLICKS' will clue you into some movies which 'unique' doesn't even begin to describe...
'Killing Spree' - 1987, Directed by Tim Ritter
Tim Ritter has created some of the most psychedelic pieces of garbage you will ever lay eyes on. I'm still not sure if he intends his films to be as weird as they are, but holy hell are they weird. His 'biggest' flick, a slasher called 'Truth or Dare?: A Critical Madness' is one of the most disjointed, coked-out oddball things I've come across, and this film, which came out a couple years earlier, is just as weird. In fact, it might even be weirder...
So, you've got a semi-normal slasher setup: A guy catches his wife cheating and goes crazy, killing all her various lovers. These include the TV repair man, the lawncare guy, and his own best friend. Pretty standard slasher fare, right? Well, except for the fact that he never actually 'catches' her cheating...he just keeps finding her diary, then he reads an entry while a red light shines on him. Also, it's a little weird that he chooses to kill all these other guys instead of her. Also, the TV repair guy knows Karate, so he's a little hard to defeat.
The acting is as awful as you'd expect, but the poor delivery coupled with Ritter's equally demented writing makes something truly bizarre. Actors are either wayyyyy over the top or completely emotionless. Ritter also employs some interesting killing techniques. For example, the main character at one point attaches knives to his ceiling fan, then grabs a guy by the legs and holds him up into it, beheading him. Pretty elaborate.
But, that's still not the weirdest part. Stop reading now if you really don't like 'spoilers,' but I'll tell you right now that it doesn't even matter. The plot is completely see-through, so you pretty much know this stuff the whole time.
First of all, his wife hasn't really been cheating on him (hence the diary-reading). She's just writing romance stories for a magazine because she doesn't want her man to be the sole breadwinner of the household. So, needless to say, all the dudes he's killed come back to life to fight him.
Yep. Mind you, this isn't a zombie movie, or a supernatural horror film at ALL. It's mostly based in reality (despite the dream-logic that permeates from most of Ritter's work) so this twist is just totally wrong. And awesome.
If you're looking for something mindblowingly bizarre, look no further than this (or any of Ritter's other films, for that matter.)

TEAMS: Washington Redskins, Indianapolis Colts, New England Patriots
Robert Griffin III has been phenomenal.When the Washington Redskins traded up in the 2012 NFL Draft to take him second behind Andrew Luck, they did it with the expectation of RG3 becoming a franchise changing player.Little did the Redskins know that their expectations would be realized so quickly. The Redskins finished 10-6 this season and have won the NFC East division title for the first time since 1999. Robert Griffin III brought an instant change to the football culture in the nation's capitol. He has quickly become a cult hero to Redskins fans and NFL fans across the country.With all due respect to Indianapolis Colts quarterback - and fellow rookie - Andrew Luck, it goes without saying that RG3 has been the most outstanding rookie performer this season. RG3 should, however, take two individual accolades away this season. Namely NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year and NFL Most Valuable Player.Yes I said it, NFL Most Valuable Player! Let me explain why.The Redskins finished 5-11...

An attempted murder and an attempted suicide took place at a Warren home Wednesday on Paige Street, near Nine Mile and Hoover roads, police say. Police say Mitchell Adam Holcomb, 30, stood outside and fired a gun through a window aiming for his ex-wife, who was seated at a table with the pair's two-year-old son, her mother and boyfriend. The shot missed and no one was hurt. Police say Holcomb then shot himself but survived. Holcomb came to the house back in May, kicked in the door and assaulted the ex-wife and her mother. He was also currently wanted on two assault warrants for that incident. The ex-wife and her mother believed they had taken out personal protection orders against Holcomb, but Warren police say once a judge signs a PPO it must be shown to police in order to be entered into the system. Police say they never saw the order so it was not in the system. Holcomb has survived a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. He's in bedside police custody at an area hospital. He is expected to be arraigned Monday or Tuesday on attempted murder, health permitting.

You ever heard of Pitcairn Island? It's one of the most remote locations on Earth, situated WAAAAY out there in the Pacific Ocean about midway between Nowhere and Emptytown. The tiny island was discovered by white folk in the late 1700s, although it's believed that Polynesians lived there a few hundred years before. Made of volcanic rock, Pitcairn Island has a bowl shape, making it extremely difficult to access, and as of 2008, there were only about 50 people living there. These folks are all direct descendants of the HMS Bounty mutineers. That's right -- they have their origins in British maritime folklore. You can read a full account of the famous mutiny here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutiny_on_the_Bounty
To summarize, the crew of this one trading ship was apparently upset about returning to normal sailor duties after having been granted an extended holiday in Tahiti, and just took control of the ship, casting their captain off in a lifeboat, or something.
The mutineers sailed around for some time before finally kidnapping several women from Tahiti and setting out to look for a new home. Apparently, they wanted to settle in a place where the British would never find them, so they went to Pitcairn Island. The fascinating story of their early struggles there can be found in the same linked article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutiny_on_the_Bounty#Mutineers_on_Pitcairn_Island .
Today, there is still a settlement on the island, although its population is substantially lower than its 1937 peak of 233. New Zealand provides the islanders with material support, including educational services for the children and occasional supply deliveries. This incredibly remote culture speaks English and practices Seventh Day Adventism.
I first read about Pitcairn Island when I was about 16, and immediately filed it away in my brain as the place to be when mankind's inevitable nuclear holocaust goes down. Now, admittedly, I don't know anything about prevailing winds or any of that crap, but it seems to me as though I'll wish I was in Pitcairn when this failed experiment known as Humanity finally wipes itself out. The Pitcairners appear to have the ability to sustain themselves indefinitely, even if the government-provided petrol deliveries taper off. Heck, the original HMS Bounty mutineers made no contact with anyone on the outside world for some 18 years after first landing there.
And what an interesting group of folk! I wonder what it's like for them living in a place far removed from other civilizations. No phones, no televisions...a VCR here and there...maybe old Pastor Smitty over at the church does a short wave radio Sunday morning music broadcast, but that's about it for entertainment. Just hanging out and soaking up the pleasantly moderate weather is what's in store for the average Pitcairn resident each day, I imagine. Of course, the real excitement is when a ship stops by, which, according to most accounts of life on Pitcairn, happens every few months. Something tells me that the islanders are fundamentally suspicious of outsiders, but they do welcome short-term visitors. I found the travel blog of one woman who tells an excellent story of her trip to Pitcairn Island:
In summary, she says the place is incredible.
Of course, I assume there's a darker side to this utopia. I mean, half of the island's residents seem to have the last name Christian (descendants of the guy who led the original mutiny), which can't be a good sign. However, according to the above traveler's blog, marriages closer than second cousins are forbidden there. Still, I wonder if that amounts to inbreeding. I'll bet everyone there is secretly insane.
Eh, anyway. Wwho am I kidding? I would probably hate life on Pitcairn Island. There is nothing to do there except pick breadfruit and wait around for a ship to come. I once spent four years living in a small town just a few hours away from Detroit, and was a shell of a man by the end of THAT ordeal. I can only speculate on what my mental state would be after a few months in Pitcairn. Still, I'll keep it in my mind as a place to visit if I ever come across enough money to do any kind of traveling. Perhaps I'll go there if things don't work out in Gay.... You know -- occupy one of the nearby islands that are currently uninhabited; read a lot. "Don't mind me, Pitcairners. I'm just the guy who called you in-bred in his blog a few years back!"
Anyway, here's a movie that also takes place in a Pacific paradise. See? There IS a point to all of this!
A Perfect Getaway (2009)
Two couples meet in Hawaii. Soon, it becomes apparent that one of them is trying to kill the other. But WHO???
So, A Perfect Getaway is noteworthy in that it marked the return to the big screen of Hollywood's perfect woman, Milla Jovovich. Milla'd been taking a break for a couple years there to have a daughter and do other private stuff, but now she's back. I hadn't even heard of A Perfect Getaway until the day after it opened. Someone sent me a message asking if I had seen the new Milla J movie. "NEW MILLA J MOVIE?! Well, I'm busy tonight, after all!" I said to myself.
A Perfect Getaway is about a recently-married couple that is apparently being stalked by homicidal maniacs while on their honeymoon. They hike across an island in Hawaii, encountering other newlyweds along the way, and each new acquaintance provides reasons to be suspicious. Are any of these colorful folk the KILLERS that newspapers back in Honolulu are warning people about? WILL our heroes get off this island alive???
Now, I've heard that A Perfect Getaway was actually promoted in the mainstream media as having a shocking twist at the very end, and I'm here to report that, in fact, it does. However, I personally was able to figure out what this twist was about 20 minutes into the picture. I wonder if others, who actually had an inkling of what to expect, could have figured out the surprise even sooner. That's not to say that this film DEPENDS on its shocking ending, however.
If you sit down to A Perfect Getaway with the mindset that this is strictly a lightweight, enjoy-the-pretty-vistas, look-at-the-attractive-people, munch-some-popcorn, B-movie sort of affair, then you'll have a reasonably good time. Interesting characters make the experience fresh, and at a modest 90 minutes, the film doesn't overstay its welcome. Milla J, although not quite back to her best fighting form, looks darn good, and a portion of the films' hot chick duties are handed off to the competent Kiele Sanchez. It's also nice to see Steve Zhan in a non-moron role because I like him, too.
Disappointing twists aside, A Perfect Getaway offers a fair amount of wit, laughs, and suspense to easily pass a good hour and half.
3 out of 5.

David Yurman uses color fearlessly, combining gemstones in unconventional ways to create truly distinctive and captivating palettes. "Fashion has color moments," he says, "but the reality for me is it's not about trends. There are moments when you want something soft and muted, and moments when you want something deep and rich. I like the idea of mixing colors that you don't often see together, that might feel a bit odd, yet the result is refreshing."
The Ojime collection is based on Japanese beads that originated in the Edo Period to secure the cord that fastened the into (a small container to hold personal items) to the kimono. The artifact is reimagined in designs of braided leather accented with metal or gemstone beads.

Iraq War Ends With a Whimper, Not a Bangby Yochi J. Dreazen, National Journal

Mitt Romney's early success in the Republican presidential race is challenging the tea party's clout. Will it continue to pull the GOP sharply right? Will it slowly fade? Or merge with mainstream Republican elements in a nod to pragmatism, something it's hardly known for? Read more
Gingrich: Romney's Rockefeller Problemby Janet Hook, The Wall Street Journal
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has a new take on Mitt Romney's challenge in cementing his status as frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination. It's not that he's a flip flopper. It's not that he's a Mormon. It's his Nelson Rockefeller problem. Read more

A Dedication to King, and the Work Yet to DoBy Sabrina Tavernise and Helene Cooper
They came from across the country, some arriving before dawn, carrying folding chairs, cameras and a strong, proud sense of history. Thousands stood and sat together under a bright blue sky Sunday as a memorial to the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. — the first honoring an African-American in the area of the Mall — was dedicated at last. Read more

Veterans' unemployment outpaces civilian rateby Michael Fletcher, The Washington Post
As soon as Brian Joseph graduated from high school he joined the Army, where he was trained in a series of jobs that seem to exist only in the military. He was a multi-channel radio operator. Then he worked as a single-channel radio operator. Later, he worked as a psychological operations specialist, tailoring the U.S. war message to residents of Kosovo and, later, Iraq. Read more
Merkel intenet on keeping Eurozone unitedby Doyle McManus, Los Angeles Times

Nine months into his tenure as White House chief of staff, Mr. Daley feels the chill from former Wall Street colleagues who now see President Obama's administration as a hostile force. Read more

To Isolate Iran, U.S. Presses Inspectors on Nuclear Databy David E,. Sanger and Mark Landler, The New York Times
President Obama is pressing United Nations nuclear inspectors to release classified intelligence information showing that Iran is designing and experimenting with nuclear weapons technology.

U.S. considers sanctions on Iran's central bankBy Christi Parsons and Paul Richter, Los Angeles Times

Rick Perry's jobs plan: Drill, baby, drillBy Nia-Malika Henderson, Washington Post
Rick Perry wants Friday to be his big do-over day. After stumbling in Tuesday's Republican debate and admitting that the format just isn't his thing, Perry will be all over the airwaves talking up his energy-based jobs plan, which he previewed in an op-ed and on CNBC. Summed up in three words (Herman Cain would love the simplicity), Perry's plan amounts to this: Drill, baby, drill.Read more

When you were pregnant, did you have a strong sense that your baby would be one gender or the other? If so were you right?
I'm just curious as I have been able to with 3 of my past pregnancies and I have a strong felling of what this one may be too. The only one I was unsure of was with DS#1. When I was pregnant with DS#2 I just knew he was a boy even though 3 ultrasound techs told me he was a girl. Everyone in the family was shocked when HE was born, even though I tried telling them he was a boy from about 10 weeks on. I also knew right away with DD that she was a girl. I was so convinced that I was comfortable with buying girl clothes. I was right again, and again with DS#3. This time I have referred to the baby as her/she when talking about it. Although I kinda feel as if my wanting a girl has my brain into believing that.

No neighborhood should be turned into an illegal dumping ground, but garbage is pilling up in an alley on Detroit's west side. One resident said what stinks more than the eyesore is being punished when the real offenders are not.Take a walk with Nicole Coker in her backyard and the alley behind her house on Roselawn near Livernois and you'll find a nasty pile of rubble.She did not see who left the mess. However, Coker did get slapped with a pricey ticket by the City of Detroit."A $500 fine," she said. "If you want to dispute it, you can dispute it and go to court for it, but then that's a hassle. Who wants to take time... to go to court for something you did not do or even pay a $500 fine for something you didn't dump."Four doors down from Coker's place in the alley along Roselawn there is a bigger illegal dump site. All of it is just 50 feet away from busy Eight Mile Road. There are mattresses, bags filled with trash, kids' toys, old televisions, and Coker and her neighbors see rodents."We can pull up at night in the backyard, and we'll see them running all over the place because of the trash," she said.Her neighbor, Calvin Moorer, never actually sees the dumping culprits."Didn't see anybody. Just heard noises, and apparently it was the bags being tossed off of a truck," he said."[I] see rats," he added. "Walk out of the house, go up the alley and there they are."We tried contacting the city for comment and are waiting to hear back.

This version corrects the date of the city council meeting.
The Longview City Secretary's office has verified the signatures collected by a group that wants to allow a vote to expand the sale of alcohol in the city.
More than 6,000 signatures were verified by the city secretary. Longview United for Growth needed 5,375 for the petition to be approved. Next, the city council will take up the petition at their next meeting Thursday, February 14 at 5:30pm.
The petition allows a vote for the legal sale of beer and wine for off-premise consumption only. That means it will only allow beer and wine sales in businesses such as grocery and convenience stores, and it will not allow additional package liquor sales or liquor stores, except those already approved by voters in previous elections. Currently Longview alcohol sales are based on elections held after prohibition, which legalized alcohol sales on the southern and eastern part of the city to the Gregg-Harrison County line.
"This is a portion of our city that is poised for growth," said Kimberly Fish of Longview United for Growth. "What we are trying to do is open the door for that growth."
In 2007, Longview citizens voted to allow mixed beverage alcohol sales in restaurants.

glad to hear you have her in your arms! now to get her home
glad to hear you have her in your arms! now to get her home
Me: Robin Follow As Natalie Blooms DH: Aaron
Congrats...so happy for you, can't wait for pics of your two girls
Thank you...it's been a tough few days for everyone. BM called us to her room last night and the 4 of us sat and chatted for about an hour. She referred to us as her parents a few times and said she didn't want the nurses to always ask her if something was ok first. She said I keep telling them ask her parents! She's so sweet...she kept babes with her and her aunt last night and sent her in to our room at 5ish this morning. She was nervous to ask if Rylee could spend another night in her room but we just told her we want her to have as much time as she needs before she's discharged. BM should get to go home today for sure so that will help. This isn't easy but praying everything keeps going well and we'll be on our way home with Rylee soon! You will melt when I can post pictures! She's beautiful!
(((Big big hugs)))!!! My heart goes out to you! What an amazingly joyous time but so coupled with sorrow too . Praying you will be home with your newest addition soon...I am so happy for you !!!!!
Thank you all for your well wishes. Yesterday was a really hard day...we said goodbye to Rylee's birthfamily, took a breath feeling like things were ok, found out Rylee's infection didn't improve so she and I are at the hospital until Thursday. I also had to say goodbye to DH...he went home to be with Josy (2.75 hours away) We're doing pretty good here...after as much as she was passed around and handled it's nice for her and I to just hang out and get some good bonding time.
So good to hear you have her, she will be in my prayers to get rid if the infection congrats Jess, can't wait til you guts are all home and we can see pics
So good to hear you have her, she will be in my prayers to get rid if the infection congrats Jess, can't wait til you guys are all home and we can see pics
I'm so glad baby girl is here!! Congratulations! Now to get that sweet baby home to meet her big sister!!
Lauren (29) Wife of 10 years to J.R.(30) Mom to Bayleigh (8) & Jack (3)
I do hope that you are able to take that sweet baby home very soon!
Jessica (33) and Ryan (33). Madelyn born August 5, 2009; Malachi born December 23, 2010 and Nathaniel born July 19, 2013. Lost a loved baby 02/29/12, 05/14/12 and 07/05/12 all due a serious allergic reaction to fabric softener.
My blog about MCAD
I hope Rylee is doing better today!
At what point in your state can they do the termination of rights? I admit I'm jealous of those states that can do it with a few days of the birth and at the hospital. My state isn't like that. Ours they have to go to court and cannot ask for a court date until after the birth so it's generally 3-5 weeks depending on how busy the courts are in that county.
Any updates Jess? I hope things are still going well and we get to see some pics soon
Stalking for updates...hope you home having fun with your two girls!
Things are going very well! The girls have already formed a bond that makes my heart melt. It sounds like the TPR hearing will be at the end of this month so we're looking forward to that. I can't wait to post pictures...it'll be a bit before I've got time to get things together but soon I hope! Thank you again for all your thoughts and prayers! (they mean more than you know) I'll update when I get a chance.
So glad its all going well.

Narrow your search
The RIAA is calling for search engines like Google and Bing to censor all links that lead to Web sites carrying illegally copyrighted material. The Pirate Bay thinks that's swell.
The trade group releases a report card on Google that claims the Web giant's pledge to demote pirate sites "remains unfulfilled."
Research that suggests torrent users spend more money on music than the average consumer has been branded by the RIAA as "misleading."
The music industry is betting big on cloud music and subscription services, but sales figures indicate that consumers will be a tough sell.
An earlier version of this report incorrectly stated that Jammie Thomas-Rasset acknowledged pirating. A judge concluded that Thomas-Rasset had lied about the possibility that her boyfriend and children were the ones that illegally uploaded songs to the Web.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit vacates a lower court's decision and rules that Thomas-Rasset, found by a judge to have lied about illegally uploading music, must pay the top four labels $222,000.
Days after Google blocked a site that converts songs from YouTube music videos into MP3s, the RIAA again asks CNET to remove conversion software from Download.com.
Sherman showed some guts by making a presentation at the Personal Democracy Forum, a conference filled with RIAA-hating tech types. He got some laughs and the crowd was polite, but he's got a long way to go to change the thinking of many music fans.
Google imposes an artificial limit on the amount of requests a copyright owner can make, which means the data it provides on infringing sites is off, the music industry group says.
Records unsealed this week show the U.S. government couldn't produce evidence that Dajaz1.com violated copyright law even after a year, largely because authorities couldn't get it from music labels.

Beautiful Bought this dress at DB sunrise Miami it was a dream on my day i was lovely a beautiful dress for a beautifully perfect day. The corset back made me look even slimmer than my size 10 dress. I would recommend this dress 100% January 15, 2014
perfect for August 2014 wedding Price is great, color is great, and the feel is great! When i tried it on, the whole room was stunned! I wear a size 14 (hoping to lose some weight before my wedding), but the corsette back makes alterations much less expensive if I gain or lose weight. I LOVE this dress! December 9, 2013
Unexpected Pleasure This dress was not in my vision, but the assistant knew me better than I did. After trying on several dresses she brought this one over. To my unexpected pleasure it fit me to a "T". The shape fit my figure, the coloring was great with my skin tone. I could not have asked for a better dress. Thank you to my sales assistant for making my day so beautiful. September 12, 2013
Lovely dress I fell in love with this dress the second I had it on. The neckline is not too revealing, and the corset back really takes away the need for alterations. I plan to pair it with high heels (I am 5'6" in a normal size 8) so that I won't have to hem the beautiful skirt, either. The only problem I had was that my waist is longer than the gown wants it to be and we had to order a size smaller so that the bottom of the backlacing did not overlap at the very bottom. My bridesmaids love it, my mother loves it, and I'm sure that my husband will love it. Paired with a simple, long veil. I second-guessed myself after the purchase, but trying on against the bridesmaids dresses #peacock blue# reminded me I was right. The dress is not too heavy by itself. It gives a very nice silhouette and stays close to the figure- don't do anything with boning underneath it! Just smoothing if anything. The stock photo really does not do the dress justice.

"A dream is an invaluable commentator and illuminator of life. Listen to the wisdom of the dream." - Carl Jung
Dear Lauri,
Last night I dreamed that a waitress asked me if I wanted coffee and I said yes but decaf with some milk. When she brought me the coffee, it was half coffee on one side of the cup and half ice cubes on the other, like Moses parting the Red Sea. Weird. – Jen 43, Spencer, WI
Lauri: Yes, dreams do seem weird... until you can understand them. Coffee in dreams is usually symbolic of you "waking up" to a certain realization that you may have been sleeping through previously. You were asked if you wanted coffee so this may mean that you are asking yourself if you really want this awareness or information. The way the coffee and ice cubes were split in half is interesting. It may mean you are of two minds on this issue or are split as to how you feel about it or what to do about it. It could also mean that a separation is going on or needs to happen in your life. The ice may be connected to you or someone around you being cold emotionally. Have you grown cold towards someone or something or has someone been cold towards you?
Jen Replies: Actually, I have started to distance myself from someone that I felt close to for the last month or so. And I have noticed that they have started acting 'cold' towards everyone, not just me. Awesome, thanks!

Blordy's DA account wrote:Alright, bout time I posted some good art and not a bunch of signs that took me five minutes. So this is for a good friend on Snafu-Comics, Sigment. The guy is named after his character and has his own story going with it. Pretty Awesome, imho. You can check it out here: vie…
So about this piece, A lot of the requested design elements that Sig wanted didn't make it in. I really abused the artistic license on this one. The original design would have had a long black coat. Most of what he wore is black, so that would have been a mess with shading. So instead, I decided to go with a sleeveless coat with big buttons. I couldn't decide how I wanted the collar to look, so I did both ideas, and I thought it came out good. The shirt, it needed something so I went with a interesting pinstripe design. If you could see the full design, it takes on the design of a dragon. Kinda hard to tell from here. The boots were taken from a dirt bike boot design.
It came together better than I thought. I had so many problems going on with school, work, by Xbox distracting me, and then his pants. normally clothing folds aren't difficult for me. I practiced them a lot when I started drawing, but lately its just sucked.
So this is the outline, there will be a shaded completed version as well as a few attempts at coloring including Sig's original color scheme and my own.

Blood Lord on his DA wrote:I give you Valmyria Windstrider. Currently she is in my Dragon Age RP as the GM character. Typically though she is a Elven Ranger and a variation of her appears in nearly every single fantasy RPG that I play. I don't know why...
It is another WIP, I was working on this one while also doing the Sigment one. It actually started first. I don't know how I quite feel about this one. To be honest, I am... disappointed with how it turned out. When I was drawing this thing I had the female body down to a perfection (Yes it is a woman). I kid thee not, every line and curve was placed brilliantly. The proportions were great and I was so happy that despite my long time of not drawing, that I still retained a impressive amount of my skill.
But then I got stupid. I started adding in too many things and allowed too many sources to influence the design. For example, despite not being one, she could kinda pass for a Warcraft Elf with those ears. The emblem on the breast plate is suppose to be the High Elven emblem, again from Warcraft. The top half of the armor was inspired by some anime and Dragon Age armors. Arm armor was split into two for ease in combat; the more armored arm would be the defense arm while the lighter armored side would be the sword arm. The lower portion is a nod towards the Assassin Creed franchise, particularly the Brotherhood robes. I feel like I screwed it up because I had this great outline, perfect female body shape and then I screwed that up by covering the legs with the Assassin Robes, and ruined the top half because I made the breastplate way too "Busy". Until I got the face done you couldn't tell it was female and by that point it was too late for me to change anything back to what it should be.
But at the same time I really love the Assassin Robes and have always been partial to the "half/armored" design of characters. Seems stupid to me to run into battle wearing your leathers and normal clothes, and utterly pointless to go hiking in the woods wearing full armor. So if you merge the two you can still kinda fake the protected look and stay nimble. Sounds good in theory. I should have gone with the AC2 robe designs instead and made the back and front a little longer.
TL;DR - Not thrilled with what happened, but I learned somethings from it.

Women's hearts are breaking all over the world with the news that Prison Break star Wentworth Miller is gay.
After being invited to a film festival in Russia he decided it was time to make his sexuality known. He declined the invitation "as a gay man" because of the way gays are treated in the country. He posted a statement on GLAAD's website in which he calls the treatment of gays in Russia unacceptable stating that he can't "in good conscience" be part of the event.
Guess I gotta take him off my "list".

Trained as a sculptor, David Yurman approaches the design of a piece of jewelry from every angle. "It's about the whole piece," he says. "How it feels in your hand, how it looks on the back as well as the front." He combines shape and form to create designs with volume and dimension—wearable sculpture.
"Form is form," he explains, "whether it hangs on a wall, goes on a pedestal, goes on a wrist, or goes on a neck. Learning how to balance a little sculpture on a stand is really no different than learning how to balance a stone on the end of a bracelet."
Two links forever joined. The Infinity collection is a fresh take on the ancient symbol. A pair of elliptical smooth and cabled links interlace in perfect harmony. In pure precious metal or set with radiant stones, the designs evoke ageless symbolism with contemporary elegance.
