TORONTO (Reuters) - Tuukka Rask is key to the Boston Bruins' Stanley Cup hopes and the Finnish netminder showed he is up for the challenge with a stellar performance that silenced what had been a raucous Air Canada Center.
Rask stole the show when he turned aside 45 of the 47 shots he faced during Monday's 5-2 win over a Toronto Maple Leafs team that was hosting its first National Hockey League (NHL) playoff game in nine years.
"He played huge for us," Bruins winger Milan Lucic, who had three assists in the victory that gave Boston a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarter-final, told reporters.
Rask has more than lived up to the lofty expectations placed on him as the team's top goalie this season when he was handed the starting reins after Tim Thomas, who led Boston to a Stanley Cup in 2011, decided to take a season off.
He will likely garner plenty of consideration for the Vezina Trophy, given to the NHL's top goalie, after ending the regular season ranked fourth in goals-against average, third in save percentage among starters and tied for first in shutouts.
Rask entered the postseason with 13 games of playoff experience but this year marked his first appearance as the team's starter since he and Boston blew a 3-0 series lead to Philadelphia in the 2010 Eastern Conference semi-finals.
But Rask, 26, was a picture of confidence while manning the Bruins crease during a pivotal Game Three where a sellout crowd of Maple Leafs fans tried to unsettle the visiting goalie by showering him with jeering chants of "Tuuu-kaaa."
"It was pretty tough to miss that," Rask said with a laugh. "I don't know if they were cheering me or trying to get me rattled. I'd say the second one."
After a quick start by the Maple Leafs, Boston eventually took control of the game. The visitors jumped in front late in the second period and then relied on Rask to carry the load the rest of the way.
The plan worked.
With Boston holding onto a 1-0 lead early in the second period, Rask foiled a brilliant Toronto scoring opportunity when he used his left pad to stop Joffrey Lupul's shot during a two-on-one rush.
The save proved crucial as Boston scored moments later to grab a 2-0 lead.
"It was a nice pass and it was just kind of one of those knuckleballs that just dropped and missed my glove and I just kicked my pad out and it hit my pad," Rask, who was voted the first star of the game, told reporters.
The busiest part of Rask's night came during a frantic final period when the pressing Leafs sent 18 shots at the Boston net.
Toronto cut the Boston lead to 4-2 when Phil Kessel beat Rask with a powerplay goal less than a minute into the third period to set up a wild finish.
But a poised Rask stood tall in the face of pressure, a sure sign that the Bruins could be set for another deep playoff run.
"You just try to stay calm, and well positioned all the time and I thought today I did pretty good job of that," said Rask.
"Sometimes when teams create a lot of traffic and cross-ice passes you kind of tend to get over aggressive and maybe that throws you off your game a bit. But I just tried to stay calm even though they had a lot of shots."
Game Four is set for Wednesday in Toronto.

I'm sorry but I am a housewife and know many other, "Housewife's". None of the housewives I know are making delusional videos and dating weird french dudes. If one more stupid pretend housewife make a video, I will explode. Here is what real housewives do. Breakfast, errands, lunch, shuttling kids, dinner, laundry, listening to whining, and doing it all over the next morning.
I wish I could spend all day drinking pinot and making fake music videos. But, noooooo, I can't because I did than who would make meals and clean dirty ass underwear? Nobody, that's who. Suck fake housewives. I dare any of those self important bitches to spend a day in mine or any other mothers shoes. They would lose their minds and run the hell away. I would spell check this nonsense but I have four kids who want to eat dinner and other than Chef Boyardee, I'm the only one cooking dinner in this casa. I can't be tardy for this party.
Where are the parentals?
Giving your gay director a dirty lap dance is just not right. There's plenty of time to give lap dances to men. And there is really no need to simulate lap dances on a chair. You have your whole life ahead of you to be a hussy. You kind of look constipated so maybe I'm reading too much into it and you just need some special yogurt. If that's the case then please accept my apologies and let me reccommend some metamucil.
Regardless, this picture is forever and you'll have to explain it till you die. That's the thing with this crazy interwebs. You can never take any of it back . I for one am grateful we didn't have all this cool technology back in my day or I would be living in a cave. But I was at least of legal age.
Let's all quit this shit. I'm tired of sex tapes and sexy time pictures. Pleeeeeease! It was ok a few years ago but now everyone has a video or nekkid pictures. It's boring and since you are young it's creeping me out.
Daily Bale
I'm going with him today because I love that he is scared of ostritches.
"They would say, 'Don't make any noise around the ostriches. They'll tear out your eyes and rip out your heart.' So, I was naturally terrified," he tells People.com.

But I Get It
Apparently there was a recent verbal beat down between Avril and Lindsay at Chateau Marmont. I guess that's her home as much as a hotel can be.
"Word is, the epic battle took place at Hollywood's Chateau Marmont, Lindsay's home away from home, and it began with a simple salutation.
"Avril was at a table with friends just over a week ago including her boyfriend, Brody Jenner, when Lindsay came over to say hi," an eyewitness tells the New York Post. "But as soon as she approached, Avril launched at her and said, 'Get the hell out of my face, you are fake, you are a loser. I don't like false people. Stay away from me and my friends.'"
The insults apparently sent the functionally-challenged
LiLo into a rage blackout.
"Lindsay was furious and screamed back, 'Don't threaten me!' She then stormed off to security and tried to get them to kick Avril out," recounts the spy. "They refused to force Avril to leave. Lindsay eventually stormed off."
Guess the Chateau realizes which one of them is more likely to make good on her bill."
Let me give you some words of wisdom. Daddy is never coming to save you, mine didn't but I turned out ok (I think). Mommy and daddy are wrapped up in their own drama. There is no knight in shinning armor. Do you ever look back at your career and wonder, "What happened to all those movie offers?" If not then you should.
I feel super bad that you got pwned by frigging Avril. Seriously? My 5 year old is more punk than that poser. She probably thinks the Sex Pistols are some kind of water gun. You are better than that. Or at least you were. Are you still somewhere in there? Let me know if you are.
Crap you think you don't need.
I once again sacrificed my own sleep to bring you the finest products known to humans and possibly those not of this world. If you are not of this world than, Welcome or, ggjsdagjojafndfsoghaj. That's alien talk which leads us to your first product.
If there are aliens amoung us than most likely, THEY ARE TRYING TO KILL YOU. I bet you all had no idea as you go through your sad little lives not knowing how close to death you are. It's like that movie Final Destination, but for realsies. Everything around you wants you to f'ing DIE already. You goto open your favorite bill and ooops, YOUR DEAD.
Seriously, this book will save your life when you didn't even know your toaster wants to burn you alive. Beware.
More like, "The Longpuke"
When you decide to be a hate monger. Try not to hate too loudly on the thing you secretly monger.
Rent Boy "Lucien" (whom the Advocate identified as Jo-Vanni Roman) tells the Miami New Times all about his trip with anti-gay Christian right leader George Alan Rekers:
The male escort hired by anti-gay activist George Alan Rekers has told Miami New Times that the Baptist minister is a homosexual who paid him to provide body rubs, once a day, in the nude, during their ten-day vacation in Europe.
Rekers allegedly named his favorite maneuver the "long stroke" — a complicated caress "across his penis, thigh… and his anus over the butt cheeks," as the escort puts it. "Rekers liked to be rubbed down there," he says.
The paper adds: "Although Rekers does have physical ailments that make it difficult for him to haul suitcases, Lucien wasn't hired to carry luggage on their European vacation, the escort says. 'It's a situation where he's going against homosexuality when he is a homosexual,' Lucien says. Lucien was interviewed late last night in the Fort Lauderdale house where he was laying low for the evening. The townhome he rents in a west Miami suburb has been inundated by uninvited guests since his identity was revealed by a blogger on Gawker shortly after the story broke."
Rekers, we remind you, was the state of Florida's star witness in support of the ban on gay adoption. For his testimony he and a colleague were paid $87,000.
This is what's known as being a hypocrite as well as being a tremendous asshat. But I'm also sitting here as a boring ole straight person so I have no clue what it's like to deal with sexual confusion or self hate. I've dated a gay man or two in my life and apparently everybody seemed to know it but me. I'm always late to the party. But he took money to ban gay couples from adopting and then hires young men with that money to stroke him, really? It's always the super straight conservative guys. Now what do I tell my daughter when she starts to date? Watch out for those fake straight guys who spend too much time in public bathrooms or hire bag carriers. Isn't that what bell boys are for?
You know what's better at looking at old pictures of yourself?
Watching old videos semi famous people want to forget they made.
First up is the guy who made a whole nation think, "Whoa". Remember when Joey Lawrence tried to parlay his sitcom fame into a music career? I don't blame you if you don't but it really did happen. Joey got a Gerardo makeover and then got all tough on the playground. Nothing scares other men quicker than a rapping sitcom actor playing on some monkey bars. Step off, indeed.
I love, Crispin Glover and all his peculiarness but even I can't understand this mess. And why clowns? Is this why he dissapeared for awhile. To write songs about clowns and such?
I was always a huge Miami Vice fan and I confess that I did buy this 45 but I also bought some Leif Garrett albums so shut up. I really wanted him to find my heartbeat, at the time. And what's with the video, I don't know what they were going for. A fashion show during a war with some crazy bike riding gangs? It was the 80's and a crazy time so who knows. Enjoy.
Uncle Jesse Joh Stamos filled a room with candles and brought us this touching tribute to his tv family. All he needed was a Beach Boy and a room filled with candles. Let us not forget the bed wrapped in gauze and sexy hair. How could you not love all the head banging and hair flipping around. Let me dry my eyes.
Lindsay Lohan's Hard Work Finally Pays Off.
Finally, a role she can sink her teeth into. Ummmmm…..but probably shouldn't. Literally and figuratively. Who knows what is going on in this girls head. But whatever it is has nothing to do with rehabilitating her career or getting healthy. She seems intent on going out in a blaze of glory. And not the kind I remember from Young Guns 2. Although I will confess to totally freaking out with my bff just to see Jon Bon Jovi in his cameo roll for a total of 8 or so seconds. Good times.
I'm not saying that it wouldn't be a hell of a roll to play. If you know anything about the biography of, Linda Lovelace, it's pretty traumatic. But she tool control of her life and spoke publicly about the dark side of porn. Like there's a pretty shiny rainbow side of porn. And then she died in a car accident.
It just seems like a pretty pretty risky bet to wager on an actress who seems completely detached from reality.
I'm sure the powder on those shoes are totally legal. But even if that was talcum powder or some kind of pressed powder, would you not notice it? I'm sure Coco Chanel would tell her to check in the mirror and take off one accessory and wear unpowdered shoes.
She was recently fired from one movie and I'll guess we'll just have to see how long she makes it through this one. So long as she doesn't end up in jail or worse. C'mon, you know it's only a matter of time before we see a tragic headline or she ends up on VH-1 reality show. Kind of the same thing.
Watching this show will turn you or someone you love into a raving homosexual.
Seriously, I was watching this last night and got a huge urge to throw on some lame and sing show tunes. Beware or your sons may start wearing pink shirts. But on a serious note, stop twisting the bible to promote your hate, assholes.
Is this really what religion is about? This is one of the major reasons I abandoned religion and became more, "Spiritual". I don't want brain washed people telling me who I should hate. And if we are going to condemn people, let's all start with the people who are hypocrites.
George Alan Rekers is a good place to start.
George Alan Rekers, a prominent anti-gay activist who co-founded the conservative Family Research Council, was caught returning from a 10-day trip to Europe with a male escort he found on Rentboy.com, which is exactly what it sounds like.
[UPDATE: The escort now says Rekers is indeed gay, and that Rekers paid him to perform daily nude body rubs during their European jaunt. "It's a situation where he's going against homosexuality when he is a homosexual," the young man told the New Times, adding that Rekers — who repeatedly asked for a move he dubbed "The Long Stroke" — ought to divorce himself from his many anti-gay associations.
Rekers has a new explanation for the trip. "I deliberately spend time with sinners with the loving goal to try to help them," he said in a statement posted on Facebook.
The Miami New Times promises more details and a profile of the escort, whom they codenamed "Lucien" but whose identity has been revealed elsewhere.]
Not to worry, Rekers told the Miami New Times, which broke the story: He claims he learned his 20-year-old companion was a prostitute only midway through their trip, they had no intimate contact, and he hired the young man only because recent surgery means "I can't lift luggage."
This seems highly dubious, not least because the New Times reporters spotted the retired professor pushing his baggage cart through Miami International Airport. It would be extremely difficult to stumble upon the Rentboy.com homepage, which features young well-muscled men rubbing each other's crotches on grainy video loops, and not figure out what the site means by "rent boy."
I personally think that guy is more dangerous than a tv show.
I've never tweeted and I'm not sure how it works but it seems like it leads to many fights. Especially amoung semi-celebrities. For instance:
Lindsay Lohand and her ex. She recently had a tweet fight and hurled a drink at her ex-lady friends head. Which she apparently got banned for. Aren't you suppose to hold the glass and just dispurse liquid? Why kill the pour glass? What did the glass do to deserve this treatment?
It also leads to pics we do not need to see. Thanks, Courtney, my eyes are crying from this horror.
^%$&$%*^%*, why? Supposedly it was to show us her to tat's but really it's just made me lose my appetite. I guess that is one way to drop some pounds before bathingsuit season.
To me it seems as though all this tweeting opens us up to too much info. Some of it gross and much of it boring. I don't care if you are getting a latte unless you are getting me one as well.
Do you know how many random thoughts I have in a day? Don't you have pets you can share them with. My poor dogs probably wish I tweeted so I would leave them alone. Stop tweeting every damn thought.
Have you ever eaten a banana and then decided it would be better with some cocaine? Well now you are in luck. I think cocaine bananas would be good in a protein shake. Actually, they were in plantains which means I think I want some plantanos fritos for lunch.
MADRID (Reuters) – Spanish police have uncovered at least 25 kilos of heroin hidden in boxes of plantains destined for the shelves of Madrid supermarkets, local media reported on Sunday.
A worker at the low-cost Lidl supermarket found a brick of the drug as he unloaded a box of the fruit, which is related to the banana, on Saturday morning, El Mundo newspaper said.
Police were alerted and hunted around all the Lidl branches in the Madrid region as well as the main city market. Sniffer dogs found up to 25 packets of the drug.
"Two or three police cars came and they went straight to the bananas to search them," an employee at one Lidl branch told El Mundo.
Lidl withdrew all the plantains, which had come from Ivory Coast and Ecuador, from its shops, the newspaper said. Lidl representatives could not be reached for comment.

Would you wear it?
This was for the Sherlock Holmes premiere in, NYC. isn't it, Febuary and wouldn't her lady parts freeze in this? At least her underwear match, so there's that. Somebody forgot to give her the rest of her outfit.

Stephen King, Under The Dome
All I had to see was that Stephen King had a new book and I was in. We were not a literary family so I had only two choices of books to read when I graduated to chapter books. Romance or horror novels. After reading a few of the romance novels I decided that's not how my love life was going down and picked up my first Steven King book, Carrie. I've been a oyal reader since then.
At first glance you may be scared because it's over 1000 pages long and has a map and character key, don't be. I finished it in 2 days and one sleepless night. But I have no life.
What I liked about it
It was like coming home to an old friend and I like his writing style. There were some familiar towns. And if you read enough king novels you will never move to the towns, Derry or Castle Rock. It's filled with kiler clowns, alien poisoned grounds, and various dimension traveling portholes. So stay far away.
And also his love of the 50's. I get it. If I was a good enough writer my books would be filled with 80's references.
The characters were well though out and there was the main bastard who has cronie bastards who you just hope have horrible deaths. The characters were well thought out and you really have a hard time putting the book down. Or at least I did.
What I didn't like
I was dissapointed by the ending. It just ends and you never know what happens afterwards. After taking the journey I was hoping to find out what happens to our hero's. Nothing.
Other than that I give it a huge, hell yeah.
Basically it's a story about a cute town that is literaly cut off from the rest of the world by a huge dome and what happens in the town in the days following. I'll tell you what happens, MUUUUUUUUUUUURDEEEEER.
"Celebrity Apprentice 3" executive producer and head honcho Donald Trump is claiming that this season's cast "blows 'Dancing With the Stars' away."
The celeb lineup, announced by NBC Monday (though leaked months ago), features baseball legend Darryl Strawberry, rockers Cyndi Lauper and Bret Michaels, Sharon Osbourne, former Olympians Michael Johnson and Summer Sanders, actress and author Holly Robinson Peete, wrestlers Goldberg and Maria Kanellis, comedians Carol Leifer and Sinbad, former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, chef Curtis Stone and model Selita Ebanks.

Due to the recent implosion of, Thundersquee.com, I am back to party of 1 blogging. I shall miss the ladies of that site but understand that they need to move on and things were not working for everyone.
Sorry to our loyal readers and I'm just as sad. I do not know any details as to what happened, just the outcome. Thundersquee.com, is no more. Unless I hear different but so far I've not heard peep squat.
I do feel lucky to have written with some very smart and witty people. And thanks to the brave souls who edited my sorry ass. I'm gramatically challenged and content to be so. So here I am once again, blogging with myself, uh-uh-uh-uh-oh. But I still love them all dearly. And on that note, a song that sums up my feelings.
Here is a picture of soup. And another recreating me calling her to beg for her recipe.
My grandmother has this habit of not sharing her recipes. It took me nearly a year to figure out her sofrito. Which tastes so yummy over rice with some carne. Ay yi yi. But I'm still trying to figure you her chicken soup. It's more like a stew then a soup and has a whole chicken cut up, squash, no carrots or celery, and other stuff. But you also pour it over rice and it's ddddddd lish. I think it's something along the lines of Asopao de Pollo.
But anytime I try to get it out of her she always gives me. "Ohh, quina, I put in a little of this and a little of that". My grandparents always call me Quina. I have no idea what it means.
Anywhoooooozzle, I'm finding similar recipes but not quite what I'm looking for. I'm sure there is a sofrito base in there as with many Puerto Rican recipes. There were probably some bouillan cubes as well. I'm telling you that not even the CIA could pry her recipes away from her.
Let me tell you a little something about my grandmother. She was schooled at a convent and is super old school. She has a whistle she takes with her on walks in case she ever runs into, and I quote, "Dat man a cheee a wchaant to rchape me." She's Rican so she rolls the r's a lot. And when she curses it's hard to make out what she's saying. Ju stooped house. I've decided that means you're a stupid ass. And she likes the wine. So I'm going to say there was wine in that recipe. More in her glass than in the pot but it's probably in there.
I've been finding similar recipes and trying to change them up. Nothing is close. I just want some stinking Rican chicken stew so I can pour it over my rice and enjoy with some plantanos fritos. What's a girl gotta do to get a recipe?

I know it has been weeks since I shared a project here, but a lot of things have been going on these days... some very exciting, others.... not so much, hehe. All those things have been keeping me very busy, but I am glad to be back. I hope you like some of my projects I wanted to share with you, so stay tuned ;)
I love this kind of project. The kind that when you start with an idea in mind... and it actually ends up looking something completely different but still close to the starting idea. The kind when your creativity flows from one thing to another so quickly that its scary! The ones that in the end you end up having such a great felling for what you have created, something which you feel, expresses the way you felt, at that precise moment.
For this page, I gathered the Double Scoop Waffle Cone September kit from Studio Calico. I complemented it with some other Fall themed supplies, such as fabric buttons. I love to include them on my projects, the kind of embellishments and/or ribbons to mix textures The cork tag was perfect for this purpose too.
I wanted to try a technique that Anna Maria Wolniak showed a few weeks ago on how to use stripes of different papers to make your own paper background. I love how it looks! It seems that there are a lot of layers, when there is actually just one. To see the tutorial check it out here. Easy and fun, right? I am sure I will definitely use this awesome technique in future projects.
I completed the basic design with a few bits here and there, some stamping and a few drops of white Mr Hueys tone on tone, to give some texture to the white cardstock. I love how using some different texturized elements and basic techniques, the page looks as if it had a lot of layering.
As I do not own a Silhouette cameo, I printed the digital stamp on a piece of paper and then I used it as a template to cut the cardstock. I used the same cardstock for the background, the one that looks like a wood wall (included in the SC kit). Gorgeous! I popped it out with some dimensional foam stickers.
Thank you so much for joining me today! I hope You like it and don't forget to follow me for more upcoming projects!xoxo

Stevie likes my jokes, but sometimes I think he overdoes it, cuz he just wants food. Spring Sunday Seoul, 2007.
This past April, filled with staggered goodbyes, has really made me feel the bittersweetness of vagabondage. [see flickr set] It was much more difficult to leave Ann Arbor than I had anticipated it would be. This, of course, is directly related to the sadness I feel about leaving beloved friends and valued colleagues, all of whom will be sorely missed. As trite as it may sound, with each new move, life becomes more complicated. We now have cherished friends living on at least 4 continents and 12 different cities. In a perfect world, we could visit ALL of them once a year for at least a week each. Until that magic day when Matty and I both become wealthy independent scholars and make this possible, however, we will console ourselves with the thought of how fortunate we are to have met so many wonderful people on this journey so far. Here's hoping that our next episode in Appleton will bring us similar joys and sorrows.
The fallout from the VT massacre is having some truly revelatory effects over here. The initial fear of Korea "losing face" based on the horrific acts of an immigrant is gradually fading and a rather stark appreciation of America's public grieving process is taking hold. This is causing a bit of soul-searching that is, frankly, refreshing and a bit overdue.
First of all, there have been articles asking Koreans, "what would we do if an immigrant here did something so horrific?" Such self-reflective pondering is absolutely essential to the process of the cultural maturation of a nation growing increasingly multiethnic/multicultural. This preventative reflection is obviously much wiser than simply waiting for something to happen and then trying to harness the inevitable whirlwind.
In addition, there are some rather startling realizations about cultural differences vis-a-vis assigning blame and forgiveness. For too long, the comparative analysis between the US and Korean culture has been stuck in two simplistic modes: 1) we are different, and if it goes any deeper than that, 2) we are different, and we are better. But the reaction to the massacre has brought something new, 3) they have their own impressive aspects, too, don't they?
What has been most impressive to Korean people has been the respect shown to the perpetrator, Seung Cho. Take a look at this cartoon, from the Hankyoreh Sinmun:
The top picture refers to an incident in 2002 when two middle school students were run over by a bridge-laying vehicle during military exercises. The caption notes that the US is has not only a "responsibility shirking culture" and the in the tracks of the vehicle are written the schoolgirl victims' names and the phrase, "numerous crimes by American troops in Korea", but also… in the lower picture, "On the other hand, a culture of forgiveness: a memorial for Cho that is exactly like those of the victims."
I'll admit, while I was optimistic that no major backlash against Asian students would occur in the States, I wasn't such a pollyanna to think that this self-reflection would be inspired here in Korea. Let's hope this otherwise entirely lamentable event continues to contribute to more positive cross-cultural communication and mutual understanding.
Hello loyal reader. I have been a bit remiss in regularly blogging, I know. I tend to save up everything and then let it out all at once. I think I can blame the lack of good beer for my inability to write more often. The lubricant delivered by that sacred combination of fine hops and barley has earned my even further appreciation. Not sure I thought that was possible, but there you go.
Well, leave it to big events to get me going again.

Caught up on issues of Golf Digest on a trip to Seattle and read a great interview with Jack Nicholson who laid out some of his own rules:
- No double bogeys on first six holes.
- I don't gamble. But, if we must gamble, I only collect. I don't pay.
- Under pressure, I'll cheat ya.
- Any green in regulation, the second putt is called goo-oo-ood.
It's a terrific interview.. read on.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy: a ^This thread.
Original series re-run on BBC Four tonight from 10pm.
Recent film on Film4 tonight from 9pm.
a) Sack the film off, watch the series, then come back to the film after the series; or
b) Watch the film, then catch up and finish off watching the series; or
c) Watch the beginning of the series, watch the film, then watch the rest of the series; or
d) Put a boot through the telly, and get the book out of the library instead.
- themolegerald, mala, marckee, saps, alcxxk, and PowerCorruptionNPies this'd this
- noise_ramones this'd this
- powerfulmellow and Gringo this'd this
The book is very enjoyable
One of the best examples of its genre. And the film (I haven't seen the TV show) doesn't capture the sadness and loneliness of the spies and their no-hoper civil servant colleagues.
I'd also read this by Adam Curtis on spying:
Basically looks at how the MI6 doesn't have a clue, with support from Le Carre himself.
might get around to reading the book if the tv series lives up to expectations.
never know whether to laugh or cry at curtis' stuff. always worth a read/watch though.
the series (incl. Smiley's People) is as good as any British TV drama there's been.
a straight-up 10/10.
the film is okay. not bad, not great. worth watching, but not really memorable. 7/10.
so A.
Yeah, all of ^this
I actually much preferred Smiley's People of the two series, but that might well be because I didn't already know the story.
e) read the book, then watch the series, then the film
each has their pros and cons, but the the series is prob my fave of the bunchAcceptanceIII, saps, and badmanreturns this'd this
d) the book.
I personally found he film didn't really work for me. I read the book later and really enjoyed its feel. Never seen the series.
That said, I read the books properly, that's to say I read all the preceding books before I got to Tinker, Tailor. There are about 5 I think. The Honourable Schoolboy is really long and would make a good film, if they decided to make it.
yeah but if you're gonna read a le carre book
it should really, really be a perfect spy. cos y'know it's without question his best book
A really disappointing film
Was very boring and confused, felt like they must have cut loads out
Therefore I'd probably say go for the book or TV series
The book is marvellous.
Complex and gripping.
The BBC dramatisation is brilliant.
The film is adequate.
Make of that what you will.badmanreturns this'd this
was dissapointed when the options weren't
Tinker^ Tailor^ Soldier^ Spy^
- PickledOeuf this'd this
I went to see this in the cinema with 3 mates
We came out at the end of it and not one of us had any idea what had happened.
me too
So convoluted and the ending didnt make a whole lot of big deal for me at the time

Development Review Meetings are held to check the health of the product process. These meetings include: The Sprint Planning Meeting, , the Sprint Review Meeting, and the Sprint Retrospective Meeting.
1. The Sprint Planning Meeting involves refining and decomposing the product backlog items (tasks, user stories, defects) and moving them items into specific iterations.
2. The Sprint Review Meeting (a.k.a. the Demo Meeting or ShowCase meeting) is done typically on the last day of the Sprint. The team "shows" (presents) how the software works to the Product Owner.
3. The Sprint Retrospective Meeting is done at the end of a Sprint and focuses on how to improve, that is what should the team start doing, stop doing, and continue doing.
This article defines the purpose of the Daily Scrum Meeting.
Understand the Purpose of the Daily Scrum Meeting
The team holds a Development Review Meeting Scrum Meeting (a.k.a. Stand up Meeting). Meetings are typically held at the same time each day and are time-boxed to 15 minutes. This keeps the discussion brief. The questions answered by each team member are:
- What was done since last meeting?
- What obstacles were encountered?
- What will be done by the next meeting?
The purpose of this meeting is to focus on what each person accomplished yesterday and will accomplish today. Here the team gains an understanding of what work has been done and what work remains. The daily meeting is not a status update meeting , it is a meeting in which team members make commitments to each other.

Card of the Week, 23: 03/22/2015
Eight of Swords | Minor Arcana | The Wild Unknown Tarot
I hope you were able to rise above last week! This week is about going within. Let's see what more this card may have to say.
A chrysalis hangs from a sword. Seven other swords surround the chrysalis. The developing butterfly is stuck and surrounded. Because they are in a situation they put themselves in, they are feeling vulnerable, trapped, and powerless. Yet, this is a necessary transformation. It was necessary to become the chrysalis in order to eventually transform into the butterfly. As the growing butterfly, it can be difficult to trust that things will be different and that there will be an opportunity to change the situation. As onlookers, we can see it, but the growing butterfly cannot.
This week, you are the growing butterfly. In comparison to last week, this may seem like a step backwards, however, transformation is on going. Change is always happenings. This is really just another step along your path. Your vulnerability now will make you stronger later. While you are feeling trapped and unable to make a move, take some time to go within. Work on yourself, rather than trying to move your position, which would put you in contact with one of the swords. Is there something you have been wanting to work on?
For example, I deal with anxiety. This is something that I can go within myself this week and work on. I find out where it is coming from or what other things may be contributing to it. This is something that could benefit from the help of a mental health professional. You may want to work on changing your attitude towards exercising or taking a bit more time for rest. This is even a time where you could work on your spirituality or reconnecting with your religious practice! What do you need right now? Unsure of what you need? Take some time to meditate!
Take some time to go within this week when you are feeling trapped and stuck! Comment below with what you find!

The city of Melbourne was abuzz with movement on Saturday 23rd of September! The weather was sunny and quite warm so people were at the beaches, plus there was an epic battle between the Richmond Tigers and the GWS Giants underway at the MCG. Those who couldn't get a spot in attendance were scattered all throughout the CBD at numerous pubs showing their support for the gladiators. To top it all off, Melbourne was about to get hit by a hurricane all the way from Brazil, as Max and Iggor Cavalera were in town for the Return to Roots tour!
The line was of a decent length when this reviewer arrived at The Forum just before 7 pm for the opening of doors at 7:30, the crowd funnelling in hard and fast to the merchandise table as there were only 50 Meet and Greets available on a first in, best dressed basis! Those who made a bee-line for the rail were mentally psyching themselves up for the onslaught they were going to receive that night, whilst those who wanted to stay alive made their way to the bar or claimed a seat in The Forum's numerous semi-circle shaped booths.
Skindred have the honour of opening up for the Cavalera brothers on this tour and they did not disappoint! Fans were warmed up to the oncoming British onslaught by having 'Don't Stop Me Now' and 'Blitzkrieg Bop' played over the speakers, before the 'Imperial March' belted over the speakers and symbolised that things were about to change gear. After walking out on stage at 8:30, Benji Webbe got the crowd warmed up and moving from the opening seconds and this didn't stop for the full hour set that Skindred played! Nine songs were played during the set, however that doesn't include the intro to 'War Pigs' or the time that Webbe got the crowd to 'Jump Around.'
During the middle of the set, Webbe took time out to have a good heart to heart with those in attendance; he went on to express how, "We are here to live in the moment! I don't care if you're black, gay, Christian or Jewish; we're all here to enjoy ourselves!" The Melbourne audience also got a small treat; Webbe went on to explain how Skindred recently wrote a new song for an upcoming TV show's intro and that it was the first time playing it live. The lyric sheet taped to the stage in front of Webbe's feet made sure that 'The Machine' was perfect from start to finish! The Melbourne crowd really showed their appreciation for that little gem.
Leading up to the interlude of their final song for the night, Webbe commented how, "I may have said a few things during the night which may have upset some people… if you were offended at any stage during the night you can fuck off and grow some balls!" before introducing Whitfield Crane from Ugly Kid Joe as a guest vocalist on 'Warning.' Crane's appearance on stage also included assisting Webbe in teaching the crowd how to do the 'Newport Helicoptor' (for old school AFL fans, you may know this as the Kevin Sheedy!).
Those in the mosh already knew that they were going to be in for a night they'd never forget; the fact that the mosh started a circle pit five minutes before the Cavalera brothers walked out on stage goes to show just how crazy of a night it was going to be! The crowd blew the roof off when Max and Iggor graced the stage, before it was launched into the stratosphere when the opening notes to 'Roots Bloody Roots' were played. It took less than two minutes before security were dealing with their first crowd surfer; by no means was it their last though!
Max replaced his guitar with a traditional instrument for 'Attitude;' it looked like a mixture of an old-fashioned hunting bow and the staff that Rafiki carried in The Lion King. 'Cut-Throat' and 'Ratamahatta' kept the bodies flying and the circle pits running; this mosh was so tightly packed at the front that being in a can of sardines is an understatement! The showmanship and energy exuded on stage was constantly being matched and raised by the energy the mosh was providing. 'Breed Apart,' 'Straighthate' and 'Spit' lifted the bar even higher as the mosh became sweatier and more frantic. By this stage, security had already dealt with numerous crowd surfers but it was only going to become more frequent from this point on!
'Lookaway,' 'Dusted' and 'Born Stubborn' sent the pit into absolute chaos; the circle pit had lifted to another level somehow and the surge / sway those on the barrier were experiencing was a sight for the eyes! Those on the rail last night were most definitely in harm's way; not only were the crowd surfers constantly bombarding them, but the lack of space to keep yourself balanced / semi-comfortable meant that they were being pushed to the limits. Thankfully security last night were on their A game, protecting everyone and supplying them water quite frequently.
'Itsári,' 'Ambush,' 'Endangered Species' and 'Dictatorshit' marked an end to the Return to Roots chapter in the Cavalera story; Max and Igor were sounding just as aggressive and they completely punished their instruments like they did all those years ago! The crowd's hoarse voices screamed along in unison alongside Max as he sang these last four songs and concluded the Return to Roots segment of the performance.
The encore was one of the most epic that this interviewer had ever seen! Starting with a medley consisting of 'Beneath the Remains' / 'Desperate Cry' / 'Orgasmatron' / 'Policia,' the Melbourne crowd was then treated to not one, but two epic covers: Celtic Frost's 'Procreation of the Wicked' and Motorhead's 'Ace of Spades.' Then to finish off the set, the crowd were treated to a sped up version of 'Roots Bloody Roots', which had a Max lead Wall of Death thrown in for good measure. Those who stayed back would have seen numerous flying bodies all night and those who braved the mosh are going to be feeling quite sore and sorry for the next few days!

Jorge Alfaro Ebay Listings
- 20 Years Old
- Athleticism, raw power and arm
- Deceptively efficient on the basepaths
- "When you look at players like Yadier Molina and Buster Posey, guys on World Series teams, the catcher is a premium position. When you look at championship-caliber catchers, they really help their team offensively and defensively; they're good two-way players. I don't want to put a limit on what [Alfaro's] ceiling is, because right now our only focus is on him being the best he can be." -- Rangers director of player development Mike Daly
Jairo Beras, Outfield
Jairo Beras Ebay Listings
- Raw power, plus bat tool
- Best arm in organization
- Enough speed to handle center field
- "Jairo has a unique tool set. He profiles as a Major League right fielder -- he's 6-foot-6, he can throw and he runs well for a big man. He has the ability to hit and he has some power in his bat. We've worked with him in center and left field, but his final position could be decided by opportunity because we have other corner outfield bats in the organization with Nomar Mazara and Lewis Brinson and Nick Williams." -- Rangers director of player development Mike Daly

Upcoming features
In the next version the GUI will be reworked. As it is now it's not looking very good. It has got a menu and a setting screen, but I think these will work better when merged together.

Irregular heartbeats can be scary and unsettling, whether you feel your heart skipping a beat, racing, or hammering. However, they are common throughout periods of hormonal imbalance, such as during menopause. Fortunately, there are things that you can do naturally to help treat an irregular heartbeat. Continue reading to discover the six best ways to do this.
Sitting Down and Breathing
If you begin feeling your heart beating irregularly, one of the best ways to relieve the symptom is to sit down, with your feet elevated from the ground, and inhale deeply and slowly. Focus on taking long, steady breaths, and you should see your heartbeat return to a normal pace within a few moments.
Drinking Cold Water
Making sure that you stay properly hydrated is vital to the overall health of your body. In addition, drinking cold water when suffering from an irregular heartbeat can cause an instant rectification, though researchers are still not completely sure why.
Splashing Your Face
Splashing your face with ice-cold water can cause a mild shock to your body, which in some cases is enough to relieve your irregular heartbeat. If this is not enough by itself, follow it with a few minutes of deep breathing in the privacy of the restroom.
Watching Your Diet
Your diet is an important figure when trying to cure irregular heartbeats. Omega-3 fatty acids, as found in oily fish such as mackerel and salmon, are important elements in maintaining heart health. As well as this, care should be taken not to overeat, because eating too much in one sitting may result in blood rushing to the digestive tract, causing an irregular heartbeat.
Getting Enough Sleep
Adults require around eight hours of sleep each night to function at their optimum ability, but most people rarely get enough. If you are suffering from an irregular heartbeat, getting enough sleep becomes even more important. This is because a lack of sleep can leave you at heightened risk of experiencing a racing or missed heartbeat.
Relaxation can be a huge contributing factor in curing an irregular heartbeat. Stress can be to blame for this condition, and it is natural that women may experience higher stress levels during menopause. Try to relax and reduce your stress by taking time out of each day to spend by yourself doing something you enjoy. A regular exercise regime can also help to lower stress while also improving the health of the rest of your body.
Though irregular heartbeats can be worrying, there are ways to cure them in a natural manner. Follow the above six natural ways of curing an irregular heartbeat whenever you feel yours fluttering, racing, or missing a beat to relieve your symptoms in an effective manner.


text: Last week's haikus started off as a project in doodling-a-day. However, with Thanksgiving celebrations I got behind and fell back on my rubber stamp, embossing, inking and watercolors. The black band was simply for Black Friday...which ended up being a day of rest for me. The reason I wanted to just doodle is I am a teacher during the week. My students are always doodling. I remember doing the same in the margins of my papers. Its a free way to just let the pen flow without expectation. As I want to free up my practice of so many expectations I have put on myself in the past, the doodling I hope will be a great exercise in setting my creative soul free. Let loose the wild child.

Discussion Board for collaboration on QlikView Scripting.
Hi, I have a Qlikview chart which is a General Ledger Trial Balance listing (two columns accountNo and balance). Each account has a correct balance, except one account for "Profit". This account has no transaction data, because the source system only calculates it when required. So in my qlikview report it also needs to be calculated from the sum of the balances on other rows.
eg =sum({$<accountNo -= {'10.00.1500.03'} >} accountAmount) - but this give the total for each account, except the specified account.
eg =sum({1}accountAmount) - is still returning the value for the dimension/account code.
eg =sum(TOTAL accountAmount) - is returning zero even though sum(accountAmount) has a value for each account.
I would prefer the report to balance to zero, like every good Trial Balance should, but currently the report total is the profit figure.
If I can get the same figure appearing against each account, being the sum of all transactions, I can work with this.
Can set analysis do this ?
it's a bit unclear to me what your issue is and what you are trying to achieve, some lines of sample data / screen shots or best a small sample application would help to understand.
You can combine set analysis with the TOTAL qualifier:
=sum(TOTAL {$<accountNo -= {'10.00.1500.03'} >} accountAmount)

..reads the bottom slogan on the May 2009 issue of British Vogue. What a coincidence. I set up this blog to do just that..inspire myself.
British Vogue May 2009
And after reading the spread about pictures that changed the perspective of designers and photographers in the industry, it made me think about pictures I had come across in the past that had made me want to go out and sew/photograph/design etc.
US Vogue: December 2003
This is my favourite fashion shot ever. It combines all my favourite things..
Galliano; my favourite designer, Vodianova; one of my favourite models, Annie Leibovitz; one of my favourite photographers, and of course, Alice In Wonderland, my all time favourite story.
I love the way Leibovitz has captured the fairytale element in each of the shots. Take a look at the rest of the shots here.
Vogue Feature: The Last Waltz (Left: Nicholas Ghesquière for Balenciaga)
I came across this when researching peplums on style.com a while back. There's just something about that outfit that I absolutely loved. Funnily enough, it was around the time I was attending the Versace lecture, and with a dilemma of what to wear, I cut up an old cream summer jacket, and added a stiff peplum to the bottom of it, chucked on some grey cigarette pants, and waltzed out of the door..

Lee Street Theatre is proud to announce it's launching a new program dedicated to the education of students from Rowan, Davidson, and Davie Counties! The My Mind Matters, My Words Matter Tour will be working to stimulate interest in students toward the use of devised theatre as a forum for representing their own ideas and issues in both a public but professional manner.
The program begins with a live theatrical performance, presented by Lee Street theatre performers, brought directly to each school. From there, our small cast of performers will work to educate students on the different elements of theatre in order to help them create their own pieces geared toward the topics of their choice. Each day will be designed to cover a new aspect of the production, leading to a final showcase of their work by the end of the week.
But Lee Street won't stop there! As an added bonus each school would receive nominations for applicants to participate in the main stage showcase of their work from the tour, which would be presented in our theatre, right here in Salisbury. Those accepted into the Showcase at Lee Street would be striving toward receiving the ultimate prize of our 1st Annual Theatre Education Matters Scholarship. The purpose of this award would be to help aid those students in their pursuit toward an Arts Education.
With all of these exciting new developments, however, there are still some things we want to learn from our community. How can this program be shaped towards an education that caters the students in your schools? Can your school handle a weeklong program, featuring a toured performance, three days of worships lasting 3-4 hours each, and a final showcase at the end of the week? Which topics within the Essential Standards for Theatre Arts mean the most to your school? What type of 3-4 person plays should we present to your students that will ensure their interest in the program from the start?
We invite school officials, faculty, and parents to take our survey to tell us more about your school's art programs, needs , and scheduling options. Click here to start your survey!

Interesting article. One big question came to mind when reading your column and that is "How many countries have went the work of uranium enrichment that have not later developed a weapon?" I'd greatly appreciate your answer and thoughts. Thanks, Kevin
2 cents:
If you are a country and are pretty much a neighbor of another country that has repeatedly expressed the desire to see your nation wiped off the face of the earth AND that country starts messing with enriching uranium would you not deem it a wise decision on your part to eliminate that country's ability to enrich uranium? Who cares if it is for peaceful purposes? Ultimately it is a required step to get to the means to wiping your nation off the earth. If Iran actually wants peaceful uranium enrichment it can be provided for them by purchase. If Iran actually wants to be treated as a civilized nation it needs to cease the hate speech and threats - then over a period of time where some diplomatic channels of goodwill are opened between the nations maybe the world would feel okay with a nuclear Iran. But while it is shaking its fists and foaming at the mouth hatred and threats that time is not now.
I submitted an edited version of this post to the NYT OpEd for their consideration.

House To Hear From Former FCC Chairs
The House Communications & Technology Subcommittee has scheduled Jan. 15 for the first in a series of hearings on updating communications laws, and it will tap some voices of experience.
The hearing will feature former FCC chairmen. The committee did not identify them, but the pool of potential candidates is an obvious one.
They include Commissioner Mignon Clyburn (acting), now-Carlyle Group exec Julius Genachowski, National Cable & Telecommunications Association President Michael Powell, Common Cause's Michael Copps (acting), Bill Kennard, Al Sykes, Dennis Patrick, Mark Fowler, and Dick Wiley.
"As our work begins on a #CommActUpdate, there are few better equipped to provide insight and expertise on the Communications Act than former chairmen of the FCC," said Subcommittee Chairman Greg Walden (R-Ore.). "I expect the subcommittee will discuss a broad array of issues with the former chairmen as we chart our course to update the law to better fit today's communications marketplace, foster innovation and opportunity, and promote consumer choice, job creation, and economic growth."

A new figure skating competition is coming to town. The Bellingham Blades Invitational, scheduled for April 14 and April 15, marks the first Learn to Skate USA competition to be held at the Bellingham Sportsplex as a part of the Skate Academy.
"We're taking our program to the next level," announces Keri Ferguson, Skating Academy Director. "It's exciting to see our entry level kids compete in a real competition alongside our higher level kids who will be participating in a critiqued exhibition."
Learn to Skate USA is an entry level nationwide program that works to educate parents on the sport of figure skating. "It takes the mystery out of beginning skating," says Ferguson.
Coaches are well-educated and required to be certified, according to Ferguson, whose own coaching staff is required to be certified and provide valuable communication to parents and skaters.
Ferguson goes on to explain the process of bringing the Bellingham Blades Invitational to life. The first step was to apply for a sanction to do the competition. Then they had to wait for the announcement of approval dates by the official competition committee from Learn to Skate USA. With John Maier, a nationally-ranked judge, named as the Chief Referee, Ferguson rapidly moved forward, setting up the competition and having dates approved.
"The coaching staff has really led the charge and have been extremely supportive," says Ferguson. "They have really rallied to get the kids ready."
Each of the coaches from the Skating Academy have taken on jobs. They have worked to educate parents on the process as well as fill roles as judges and announcers, as well as handling awards and music.
When asked about the timing of the competition, Ferguson explains that the Skating Academy at the Bellingham Sportsplex has a strong momentum right now and is seeing great growth. In fact, the academy saw the return of one student who had left Bellingham to go south for additional competition. This same student recently tested and earned his gold medal representing the Bellingham Sportsplex Skate Academy. He now intends to represent his family's homeland of Thailand on an international level.
The Bellingham Blades Invitational will see a total of 43 skaters and exhibitors along with 12 different coaches all coming from as close as Everett to as far away as Wenatchee.
"I'm so excited about the support we've gotten," says Ferguson. The Four Points by Sheraton is welcoming the families and skaters traveling from out of town for this event. "They have always been a huge supporter of our skating and hockey program," Ferguson says.
While the competition is scheduled over a two-day timeframe, the Sportsplex will still be running its regularly scheduled public sessions. "We have the public to still take care of," says Ferguson. "And for anyone within the community who wants to see a true skating competition live, this is a great opportunity to see one free of charge." Friday evening will be reserved for competition practice ice. The actual competition will be between 2:00 and 5:00 p.m. on Saturday April 15, with the exhibitions after 3 p.m.
Ferguson's longer term goal is to continue to bridge the gap between the entry level skating program offered by the Skating Academy and the higher-level skaters of the Bellingham Figure Skating Club next year and double the size of the program. "The better our program is, the better we feed into the figure skating club," she explains. "And it's been a year of tremendous growth … We've worked hard to change the culture of learning and teaching. With clear communications with students and parents, we are able to provide more information on expectations and programs."
With this growth and change in culture, new experiences are being introduced this year. For traditional learners and those interested in advancing their skating skills, there is the Figures and Turns class. For those young skaters looking to branch out and be even more creative, there is the Theater on Ice and the Cheerleading Camp that will be offered starting this summer.
As the Bellingham Blades Invitational, a Learn to Skate USA competition, makes its debut on April 14 and 15 at the Bellingham Sportsplex, it brings to the forefront the realization that the skating world is larger than we think it is. With Western Washington University producing skaters such as Victoria Dinh (who won Collegiate Gold Medal for Senior Ladies Long program and now is a coach for the Skating Academy) the Skating Academy is sure to continue its incredible momentum in expanding figure skating into the community.
The complete schedule of events for the Bellingham Blades Invitational will be posted on April 10. Come support our local, young skaters!

I'm running windows mobile 5 on an hp rx1955 with outlook 2003 on both the PC and handheld and sync via cable using active sync 4.1.
Often when I move email items from my inbox to a subfolder (regardless of if the sub folder is set for sync or not), the item is not moved on my PC and I end up with different amounts of email messages on the PC compared to the handheld.
Is there anyway to guarantee a true sync where one will match the other?

q. Something you have to forgive yourself for.
a. Everything in my past. The stupid decisions I made. I have to forgive myself for those things, even though they still haunt me. There's not even a specific thing I can think of because there were SO many stupid decisions made in my life. But, there is no one to blame but myself. Therefore I have to forgive myself. And I DO forgive myself, because I know that is NOT who I am and my past should NOT sum up who I am or who I have become. One can only grow stronger from the mistakes they have made. I forgive myself because I KNOW I am not that same person. And I AM stronger, not only for myself, but for my two beautiful children.
ps. This 30 Days of Truth crap is harder than I thought! lol

Thread Lift
What is a Thread Lift?
Turn back the clock to return to your baby-face through customized design.
Thread Lift, return to your youth
As you age, your skin loses subcutaneous fat and skin elasticity due to gravity, stress and hormone changes. Your facial skin begins to gradually sag and facial wrinkles start to increase. People today live under a lot of stress so they are more prone to frown at the onset of different forms of stress. Repetitive frowning causes facial wrinkles and those who have more facial wrinkles tend to look older than their actual age. JW consults with you about your facial wrinkles based on our unique expertise and experienced techniques. We help you to preserve your young and beautiful face.
Thread Lift rejuvenates your facial elasticity and diminishes wrinkles quickly
The thread lift uses special threads not only to reduce facial wrinkles but also to rejuvenate elasticity on your facial skin. In case of the conventional threads of a thread lift, only one side of the thread touches the soft tissue, however, all sides of JW's special threads touches the soft tissues inside your skin so these provide a better wrinkle treatment. In addition, JW's special threads last longer than any other threads. We use bio composite threads that are made with PDO (Poly-dioxanone) materials, which are approved by the Korea Food and Drug Administration. These threads are inserted into the subcutaneous layer of your skin. JW's Thread Lift, which stimulates collagen generation to revitalize your skin elasticity, is consisted of Tornado Lift and Midas Lift.
