Heartbreak after fires hit Tasmania
More than 100 homes destroyed in southeast Tasmania.
But he said they are still continuing to sift through about 500 inquiries -- some of whom may be for the same person or be for people who weren't even in the fire zones -- about potentially missing people. Then there's the matter of double-checking on the ground, including combing through scorched buildings, to ensure everyone survived.
"Until we've had the opportunity to do all the screening that we need to do, ... we can't say for certain that there hasn't been a human life or more than one human life lost as a result of these fires," Tilyard.

Triathletes don't let diabetes stop them
Exercise becomes part of diabetes management
When Peter Nerothin was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, he found his passion.
Nerothin set out to prove himself as an endurance athlete.
"To be honest, I felt like I had something to prove to people," said Nerothin, who found an innovative way of continuing extreme sports while battling type 1 diabetes. "Which is the way it goes with a lot of these athletes -- I wanted to make a statement to myself and also to them."
He later helped direct Triabetes, a program that inspires and instructs diabetic athletes as they train for triathlons.
For his own training, Nerothin wrote a letter to LifeScan, a diabetic supply company, asking for testing supplies so he would not have to work just to have insurance. He promised them that if they would send him test strips, he would compete in an Ironman triathlon.
"I poured my heart and soul into this letter and said, 'Hey, look, I totally disagree with all the things my doctor's telling me. I feel like I'm selling myself short in life."
He thought he was unique and innovative and expected to soon be LifeScan's poster child, so he wasn't surprised to receive what he asked for. Nerothin took the supplies, sold his car on the way to the airport and ended up half-way across the world. After spending time in New Zealand climbing mountains and jumping out of planes, Nerothin returned to make good on his word. And he competed in the triathlon.
That's when he discovered what a difference his training made in his diabetes.
"Unless you have fitness built into your diabetes management plan, you really don't have a diabetes management plan," he said. "It's so critical in helping you achieve consistent blood sugars."
As director of Triabetes, Nerothin hopes to teach other diabetics what he learned.
"I had a huge wake-up call. Fitness isn't something that people with diabetes can do, it's something they should do," he said. "It really helps them focus more on what's going on with their bodies -- what they're putting into it, what they're getting out of it, how to factor exercise into the management plan. I hadn't seen it that way before, it was kind of like, 'How can I manage my diabetes so I can do activity x?' Instead (of), 'How can I do activity x as a part of my diabetes management?'"
Others Control Diabetes, Compete
Nerothin isn't the only who has discovered that exercise is a key component to diabetes control.
About three years ago, Marcus Grimm, a type 1 diabetic, started a blog with this header: "Diabetic endurance athlete unable to find any other blogs and decided to write his own."
About six months ago, he realized the title just wasn't true anymore. There are many blogs and groups to help diabetics train.
"I know one of the things that the Triabetes group is trying to do is saying, 'Here are some guidelines, [but remember] we're all individuals and we all have to tweak it differently,'" he said. "It's good to see what they have out there. That's what I try to do on my blog is tell people here's kind of what I'm doing with my (insulin) pump and my training."
Grimm uses his long training days as practice runs for his insulin control. Whenever he does more than 13 miles, he stops every five miles to do a test. Come race day, he won't have to waste his time with that because he'll have a good idea where his blood sugars stand.
"I'm not going to stop, this is what all the training told me should happen, so let's go for it and see what happens," he said.
Another runner who employs Grimm's strategy of starting with his blood sugar a little high is Aaron Perry, the first African American diabetic to complete the Ironman triathlon.
For a race, Perry packs a lunch. He pulls his bike to the side of the road, gets off and chows down.
"I."

Indiana Arrest Records
Anyone can now search through Indiana arrest records to find information about a person they’re about to employ or who is entering their lives. As you might imagine with the soaring crime rate, the amount of arrest records listed in Indiana is enormous. If you know some detailed information about the person, the search might go faster – such as a middle name, alias, date of birth and when they were arrested. But, if you’re only submitting a name for the search it may take a while to reveal the records for the specific person you’re looking for. To receive a copy of an arrest record, you can go to a police station to search through the files, search online, contact the state and/or county in which the person was arrested or secure the services of a professional online search service. To find an Indiana arrest record by mail, submit the request to:
Indiana State Police Department
Criminal History Limited Check
P.O. Box 6188
Indianapolis, IN 46206-6188
Phone: (317) 233-2010
You’ll pay a one-time fee of $16.32 for each search. You’ll receive a report listing any results for the name you submitted listing misdemeanors and felonies that are less than one year old and information about dispositions from the court that occurred over a year ago. After you fill out a criminal history search form, you will include the fee in a personal check or money order and mail it to the above address. If you don’t have time to conduct the search yourself or wait for it through the mail, you can opt to use a professional online search service that will provide you with a detailed report within minutes. The report from most online arrest record search services will contain valuable information that you can use to make sure a potential employee is telling the truth about his or her background – or that a person who is new in your life is being honest and forthright about his or her past. You’ll usually receive more information than just criminal record statistics in the report. For example, the report might mention aliases (if any) marriages and/or divorces, past addresses and relatives. You won’t have to reveal your name or why you want the report. All information that you do provide (such as credit card data) is kept encrypted and remains strictly confidential.
Professional, online search services can plow through Indiana arrest records in a short amount of time to reveal information about a person in your life. Their incredibly powerful search engines and unlimited databases provide excellent access to both public and court documents that you might need for your search. The report you receive will be formatted in an easy-to-read and understand way so that you don’t have to waste time trying to figure out the “language of the court.” Plus, you can receive and read the report in the privacy of your own home or office.
Click on the link to see how you can use a professional, online search service to find Indiana arrest records that you may need before proceeding with your business – or your life.

I was surprised the other day to see this op-ed on the Fox News website criticizing the contemporary mythology in conservative circles regarding Ronald Reagan's legacy. Here's the key quote:
If conservatives believe Reagan was a good president, what made him good was not his ideological rhetoric but his actions as a leader, including many moderate and even left-leaning initiatives. Coming on the heels of the liberal agenda of the 1960s and 1970s and supported by the rising Christian Right, Reagan may have seemed like an extreme conservative figure. In reality, and especially by today’s standards, he was a fairly moderate figure.
Maybe not all Fox News contributors are mindless ideologues after all.
Although again sweet candy, also has a bitter day.

Concern about food allergies led officials and parents in St. Mary's County, Md., to forbid elementary school children from bringing homemade treats for their classes. / Lorayn Deluca, Mama Luca Media
Seeking to heighten safety, a southern Maryland school district has banned homemade treats for classes, banished birthday invitations and prohibited parents and volunteers from hugging or touching children who aren't their own.
The new rules, which cover 8,000 students in 17 elementary schools in St. Mary's County, also forbid siblings from visiting during school hours, even if they are with a parent.
The "best practices" were drafted by a committee of parents and administrators last fall and implemented after the Newtown, Conn., massacre in December, Southern Maryland Newspapers reported Friday. NBC News picked up the story Tuesday.
"We think it's the right balance between safety and parental involvement," Kelly Hall, executive director of elementary schools, told the newspapers.
"What's OK with some families is not OK with others," she told NBC News.
District officials said concerns about food allergies prompted the ban on homemade treats for all. Parents can still send baked good or food for their child or children, but administrators would prefer only store-bought products that list ingredients.
School officials said they want parents' feedback, and the school board intends to review its policy school visitation by summer.
"I think this is horrible," board member Cathy Allen said last week. "Certainly, elements of this are going to decrease parent involvement. It's just the nature of the beast."
One parent described the discussions during committee meetings as intense, but she told the newspapers she didn't think any of the rules was excessive.
"It is sad that it needs to be done for the safety of our children," said Sherry Whittles.
Hall acknowledged that "anxiety is high," and said the new rules could be modified after they are tried for the remainder of the school year.

Models Own Launch Smash Up Crackle Polishes & Pro Range
Model's Own, much loved for their multitudinous shades of reasonably priced nail polish, are really hitting us with exciting releases this spring. First up, as part of their nail art collaboration with cult salon WAH Nails, Smash Up polishes - that oh-so-hot crackle finish in nine colours. We can't wait to try these out. They'll be available in April, with the Model's Own site carrying all nine shades, and Boots stores carrying a subset. They'll cost a rather reasonable £6.
Secondly, a whole new selection of polishes under the new Pro line, which are formaldehyde, toluene and DBP (known as the Big 3) free. The polish will also include vitamin E, and UV filters, to help your manicure last longer without fading, and to help promote nail growth. The new line, which will be available exclusively in Boots stores at first in a new professional nail care area - which in itself sounds pretty interesting. After that, Model's Own are targetting high end department stores and salons. The range is made up of a staggering 54 new shades.
What do you think? Excited by any of these new products? Let us know in the comments!
Labels: models own, news
- definitely interested in the Pro range and the different coloured crackle polishes. I need to hurry up and use some of the polishes that I already own.
I can't wait for the coloured crackle polishes - the grape looks right up my street, and the turquoise look so summery!
I've found it's easier to clear space in nail polish collections by being generous and giving away ones I don't use... makes space for all the new ones I want!

In a great location slap on the waterfront, with a good restaurant attached...
Right on the beach, this is a Sabang institution...
Cheery Margie of Mengies presides over the restaurant and will find a room for you.
There’s a good variety of rooms here, from fan-cooled nipa huts to air-con suites with all the trimmings. The resort sprawls along the sandy beach, with shady gardens and a relaxed vibe.
A prime spot of real estate, this is a collection of good-sized, great value-for-money rooms – all with kitchens. Flash they ain’t and there’s no garden to speak of, but it’s a good option for budget travellers.
This is a family-friendly place, with a decent pool, good-value big, plain rooms, and suites with full kitchen facilities, perfect for cooking the fresh-caught fish sold outside every morning. The shady courtyard looks out across the ocean.
A rambling white building with pretty terraced garden and pool, this is the grand dame of Sabang’s hotels. Annex rooms, on the waterfront, are tiny – you’ll be more comfortable back off the main strip. There’s wi-fi.
In business since 1983, this five-room hotel is something of a Sabang institution, looking directly over the water and with a popular upstairs restaurant.
A delightful cluster of stand-alone cottages with private balconies in an overflowing and colourful garden, this resort sits high above the beach. It has breezes and views and is away from the noise. And yes, there are a lot of steps.
A collection of good value, small, self-contained units with kitchens, which lie in concrete rows just off the beach.
A notable exception to most run-of-the-mill accommodation here, Coco’s is rustic and relaxed at the quiet western end of the beach.
A sprawling resort that probably retains its popularity more for its alfresco restaurant and well-known dive centre than the somewhat musty rooms.
A good budget choice, VIP has rooms behind Action Divers. Rates stay the same year-round, and dive and accommodation packages are available.
Behind Coral Cove Resort, this place lacks views and atmosphere. On the upside, rooms are clean and well kept, and air-con rooms have cable TV. Guests tend to dive with Coral Cove Dive Center.
The grand old dame of Sabang, Spanish mission-style Atlantis has the town's priciest restaurant (Ristorante da Franco), an idyllic terraced garden with a pool and a state-of-the-art five-star PADI dive centre.
The Villa has huge, plain, powder-blue rooms and family-friendly apartments. At its heart is a shady courtyard with views across a large pool to the sea. It also has a restaurant, pool tables and bar. Octopus Divers is based here.
Stylish El Galleon is one of the long-stayers on the beach. At this resort, bamboo and thatch is incorporated into comfortable cottages that wind their way through landscaped gardens on the hillside down to the pool deck.
Away from the crowds, Sabang Inn has spacious rooms, great views and friendly staff. There's a five-star PADI dive centre here offering good package deals. Rates stay the same year-round.
Careworn but clean rooms with shared balconies are stacked all the way up the steep hill, ensuring great views. The restaurant, which looks over the beach, has good cheap meals (from around P130) and brewed coffee (around P25).
This place has a bizarre, EuroDisney thing going on - it looks like a giant jumping castle. Rooms have four-poster beds, faux-antique furniture and marble bathrooms. It's worth forking out a little more for the suites.
On the stretch of shoreline between Garden of Eden Resort and the eastern point of Sabang beach, you will find no end of concrete pillbox guesthouses, some with balconies looking out to sea. All accept walk-in guests.
A massive white structure that seems to defy building regulations, the Whitehouse perches high at the western end of the beach.

Mixing With Cubase Tutorial – Be Organized Before Mixing With Cubase
Before importing the audio files in the DAW, let’s have a look at those files. Are they WAV or AIFF? Are they OMF? The files’ format depends on the way your friend exported from his DAW.
OMF (Open Media Format): When importing this file format, the DAW recreates the same project and puts all the audio files along the timeline in the proper order with the correct track names. Note that this file format does not capture effects data.
WAV or AIFF: If the export of every track has been done with this file format, all the tracks have to start at the same point. Otherwise you won’t be able to line up the files at the same start point.
Start with an empty project. Hit <ctrl + N>, select your project folder and hit OK. Under the menu File, select Import Audio file and look in your hard disk to select the bounces.
If you import the tracks one by one, you will have to create an audio track beforehand. You can select all the tracks you need by holding the <ctrl> key on your keypad.
At this point, make the good choice in the Import Option windows:
Select “copy files to working directory”. All the audio files will be copied and stored in the audio folder of your project.
Selecting “Convert and copy to project if needed” will convert the audio files to the same sample rate and record format you previously set in the Project Setup.
Some Cubase users set the project at 32-bit floating point (adding extra 8 bits full of zero), arguing that all internal processing in the application are done at 32-bit floating point, which means there is no bit depth conversion during processing. The gain is not clear but the impact on the storage capacity is really clear!
Selecting “split channels” allows you to decide if you want separate a stereo track to two mono tracks.
The next window gives you the choice to insert the audio files on one track or insert on different tracks – select “different tracks”.
Mixing With Cubase Tutorial – Be Organized Before Mixing With Cubase
Insert objects option
We all remember our mother saying “Clean your room!” We thought she was wrong when we were young, but for a mix, she’s so right!
Let’s have a look at the project:
As you can see, all the tracks are completely disorganized. They appear in the order you selected them. Some guitar tracks are followed by keyboard tracks, drum track, vocal tracks, piano tracks, drum tracks again, and piano…
Set all the audio tracks in the common order most of the front of house engineers use: First, all the drums tracks (kick, snare top, snare bottom, hh, toms and oh), then the bass tracks, then guitars tracks, then the ‘extra’ instruments (keyboards, strings…) and finished with the vocals tracks.
To do so, drag and drop the kick drum track to the top of the track list. As you move a track on the track list, two green horizontal lines appear. Use the same technique with your project tracks.
Take the time to rename tracks as you want to. If there is only one kick drum track, why keep a track called “bounce kick-01″? Rename it “kick drum” for example. You just have to double click on the name in the track list to edit it.
At the same time, if you want to rename the track in the event display, select the track, click the Show Event Info Line icon in the toolbar and double click on the name under ‘File’.
You should add some colors to your tracks for easier overview.
You have two options:
Select the first drum track (which should be the kick now), hold [ctrl + shift] and click on the last drum track. All the drum tracks are now selected. Choose and apply a color from the color selector in the toolbar located on the top right of the project window.
At this point, all the tracks are organized, renamed and colorized.
Using group channel tracks is very useful for mixing. By routing several audio channels to a group channel, you can submix them, apply the same effects and equalization to all of them. Let’s create these tracks and see the benefits.
In this example project we have 10 drums tracks, 2 bass tracks, 3 guitars tracks and 4 keyboards tracks. So we create four group channel tracks.
Do a right click in the track list, select “Add Group Channel Track”, set the count to 4, select Stereo and click OK.
Rename the group channel tracks as ‘Drums’, ‘Bass’, ‘Guitars’ and ‘Keyboard’, set the colors of your choice (the same as the corresponding audio tracks or different one) and place these four group channel tracks at the end of the track list as it is physically placed on an analogue mixing desk.
To route the output of an audio channel to a group, pull down the output routing pop-up and select the corresponding group.
If you want to route multiple audio channels to a group at once, select all the tracks needed, hold Shift+ALT and click on the output routing pop-up to select the group.#
If you solo a group channel, all channels routed to the group will be automatically soloed as well. Soloing a channel routed to a group will automatically solo the group channel.
Note that if you solo a group or channel routed to that group, any channels which have AUX sends routed to other group channels, FX channels or output busses will be muted.
In the example below, the solo button on the drums group track has been activated.
If you mute a group channel, all channels routed to it will be muted as well.
You can change this functionality in the Preferences at the VST page.
If you deactivate the option “Group Channels: Mute Sources as well”, muting a group channel will mute this group channel track but all channels that are routed directly to that group channel will remain unmuted. This means that if any of those channels have aux sends routed to other group channels, FX channels or output busses, those will still be heard.
The drums group track muted (Mute Sources as well deactivated).
Next time, we will continue to organize and prepare the project session. We still have to create folder tracks, check the phase cancellation on the snare, edit some audio tracks and set configurations of the mixer.
I think you need more coffee before you can finally put your fingers on the mixer…

I remember when it happened. I remember it was just an ordinary day. My mom told me. He didn't want to tell me himself. He was sick. Very sick. He had cancer. It was bad. We didn't talk about it. It was like if we said it out loud, it might make it worse. It almost seemed like that was what sparked it. Nathan got sick and then so did the rest of the world. That was bad too.
We lived in a pretty rural area. A small town. Not many people but enough to have a problem once the super flu spread. It went everywhere. Nathan got moved to the next town over. Their hospital was bigger and better equipped to keep him safe in case it got worse. I spent all of my free time there with him. I talked to him. Stupid things. Things I wanted to do in the future. What my mother was planning to cook for dinner. How a couple in school got caught under the bleachers, the most cliche place to be. He laughed when something was funny. He nodded sympathetically when something was going wrong. Those were the good times. Sometimes when I went to visit, he was asleep. Cancer patients tend to sleep a lot because they are constantly fighting. It would never be good sleep. No sweet dreams. It was horrible. He would gasp for breath every so often. His face would contort in pain. He would mumble nonsense. Sometimes, he would even wake up long enough to ask for more painkillers before drifting back to sleep. I sat. I held his hand. I watched him breathing, my heart skipping a beat if he took even a second too long to inhale. All I could think was you and me.
you and me
you and me
you and me
No one ever thought the super-flu would result in zombies. Who would ever have thought that was even possible? The cluster of small towns surrounding us put up road blocks and established mandatory curfews. We were in quarantine. People were getting sick. People were dying. That was when we had our last good day.
It was Valentines Day. Nathan was doing really well. He was awake and happy and in minimal pain. We celebrated. He convinced one of the nurses to have flowers delivered to his room for me. Pink flowers wrapped in cellophane and tied with a gray ribbon.Wee took pictures. We laughed. We kissed. He gave me a necklace. It was a vintage heart locket on a thin silver chain with our pictures inside. That day was the only good day i could think of at the time. So I told him about it. I told him about it on the day he died.
Our town was in complete chaos. People were protesting. People were committing suicide left and right. No one talked. People started carrying guns around with them everywhere they went. I was living in world of bullets and death. I knew I had to get to Nathan in the hospital. I had to be with him. I needed him so I could be hopeful again. I drove through a field to get around the roadblocks. No one seemed to care. I drove twelve miles to the next town. To the hospital. To find him. To see him. To save him. To save myself.
Everything was quiet. I took that as a bad sign. All the lights were out. It was cold. No heat. The elevators didn't work. I climbed the stairs to the second floor and walked to the end to the hallway. His room was empty. There was blood on the walls. I panicked. I ran from room to room. Floor to floor. Wing to wing. Screaming his name. I got to the top floor and heard a moan. I immediately pulled out my gun. I had stolen it from my father. I wasn't stupid enough to come here unarmed. I heard the moan again. Around the corner. Make a left. On the right. Open the door. And there he was. On a stretcher on the floor of a supply closet. They had left him. They had all left him to die. Alone. In the dark and cold and pain. Surrounded by the smell of disinfectant.
I saw the bite. I knew what it meant. I knew it was bad. I knew his time was running out.
I abandoned all caution and knelt down next to him. He was asleep. His chest heaved with the effort of breathing. His whole body shook with each gasp. His face contorted in pain. He mumbled nonsense. It was a bad time. I knelt there. I held his hand. I watched and listened to his wretched breathing, my heart skipping a beat if he took a second too long to inhale. I talked to him. Stupid things. How the chain from my locket broke. How I was going to get it fixed as soon as all this was over. How much I loved him. That he was going to live. That he was going to be ok. Lies. I knew it. He shook his head. He knew it too.That last Valentines Day. That last good day. That last scrap of wonderful.I sat. Holding his hand tightly in mine. Crying. Deep racking sobs. Rocking back and forth. Saying one thing over and over again.
you and me
you and me
you and me
And he stopped. Everything. No more breathing. No more moaning. No more pain. No more Nathan. And then he came back. His eyes were blank. His skin pale. His hand still gripping mine. I screamed. I kicked him back. I couldn't kill him. I couldn't let him stay like this. I couldn't let him kill me. I shot him. Three shots right in the head. All I had. He splattered on the wall behind him. Pink and gray. Just like the flowers.
I screamed. I cried. I ran. I scratched my arms. I bled. I tore my shirt. I pulled my hair. I wailed. I cursed. I remembered. I climbed. I stepped up. I felt the wind. I jumped. I flew. I fell. I whispered.
you and me
you and me
you and me
Until I was just a splatter on the pavement. Pink and grey. Just like the flowers.
(this is my first entry for the valentines day competition. it has nothing to do with my main blog, cured. enjoy)

Grim and with a most unhappy ending, your story explores the tail end of a loving relationship in the midst of a deadly disease. I am curious how the individual telling the story would have reacted if Nathan just plain old died a horrible death - without him coming back and without the teller having to shoot him. Your stocato sentencing style does bring the reader into the stress and urgency of the setting, but a run on with a few commas and semicolons wouldn't hurt every once in a while. This is a really great story, thanks FoundZpmbie. Now please excuse me while I eat a turnip.

As spring quickly approaches, the earth has begun to warm, the animals are emerging from their winter sleep, and the woods are once again bursting forth with beautiful blooms and emerald green leaves. With such abundant beauty to be seen during the lengthening days, one forgets that Bernheim Research Forest and Arboretum is magical in an entirely different, but no less stunning way after the sun has set. This month, Bernheim is offering several opportunities for night-sky enthusiasts to study the heavens in the most pristine of natural settings.
On Friday, March 16, from 8 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., younger members of the family are invited to join volunteer naturalist Don Spain as he leads a group on a "Cardinal Points Astronomy Stroll" around Lake Nevin. Walkers will stop at the four cardinal points of the lake to view the skies from every possible angle, all the while learning about the different clusters and important stars that can be viewed by the naked eye. Fans of folklore will also be able to learn about the constellations and the myths associated with them; if you have a favorite, come ready to share with the whole group! Visitors are also invited to bring their own pairs of binoculars if they want a closer look at any of the heavenly bodies being discussed.
Later in the month, more advanced sky-watchers can register for the last of the "Winter Star Stories." These monthly programs are a partnership between Bernheim and the Louisville Astronomical Society and are hosted by knowledgeable amateur astronomers. The material of the program constantly changes to keep pace with the moving sky, and powerful telescopes are always provided for unparalleled views as your guide educates you about the twinkling planets and nebulas you are observing. The Sky Watch Nights run rain or shine, and in the event of inclement weather, a fun and informative media program will be held inside the Garden Pavilion, featuring star stories, images from the best telescopes in the world (including the Hubble!), and fascinating information about our limitless universe. Join "star captain" Don Spain on Saturday, March 24, from 8:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., as he and naturalist-in-training Cele Beckner unravel the wonders of the cosmos.
Both of these events are held in the Bernheim's Garden Pavilion, and admission is $10 for members of the Forest and $12 for non-members. Note that registration and payment are due by 4:00 p.m. on the day prior to the program, so plan accordingly! To register or to receive more information about these events (including cancelations due to weather), call (502)-955-8512.

Link to the Heroes promo video :
The Apprentice/Intern (A/I) Company of Actors Theatre of Louisville are pleased to present Heroes! (or nine ordinary people on stage?), a workshop performance directed by Caitlin O’Connell, playing the Victor Jory Theatre at Actors Theatre of Louisville, September 25 & 26 at 8:30 p.m. Performances are free to the public.
Superman… Muhammad Ali…Your Mom….Who’s your hero? Do we even have heroes today? According to writer Joseph Campbell, there are seventeen steps within a hero’s journey that can be found in almost every narrative. Come witness the 2011 Acting Apprentice Company explore and challenge the concept of a modern day hero drawing from Campbell’s steps, their own personal experiences, and YOU as an audience. From interpretive dance to eating contests, there’s no telling what this adventurous night will bring.
Heroes! is the first in a three part series of workshop performances developed by the A/I Company that will be presented in the coming months. The series consists of original devised work created by the Acting Apprentice Company following a program of workshops that explored different techniques and approaches to creating ensemble generated theatre.
Heroes draws from workshops undertaken with Greg Allen, founder of the Neofuturists - a Chicago-based ensemble who write, direct and perform their own work dedicated to social, political and personal enlightenment in the form of audience interaction. This production features nine members of the Acting Apprentice Company. The piece consists of vignettes created by the group that explore the role of mentors and modern day heroes in our everyday lives. Further inspired by Joseph Campbell’s book, Heroes With a Thousand Faces, in which he identifies a series of seventeen steps that he argues can be used to create a mythic story structure, the group applied this to their approach when constructing their own heroic tales. Molly Clasen, the project’s dramaturg says, “Heroes! (Or nine ordinary people onstage?) seeks to humanize Campbell’s seventeen steps, wrestling the abstract structure down to earth and roughing it up a little,” by combining ensemble story-telling techniques with personal perspectives on the meaning of true heroism.
Director Caitlin O’Connell says of the piece, “We are using the time we spent with Greg Allen as a foundation for our eccentric and unpredictable play. Heroes! (or nine ordinary people on stage?) is an exploration of how we can present our own truths on stage by sharing our thoughts on heroes in our lives and in society today.”
The first Ensemble features the talent of: Rivka Borek, Sabrina Conti, Jonathan Finnegan, Zoe Garcia, Doug Harris, Liz Malarkey, Maggie Raymond, Keaton Schmidt and Amir Wachterman.
Now in its 40th year, the A/I Company is comprised for 23 interns and 22 acting apprentices who have undertaken a 9 month training program in their field of interest in professional theatre. For more information on the A/I Company visit ActorsTheatre.org.

Pet Posts by month: March 2011
We decided to add a pet blog to our website because there is so much information out there (in newspapers and magazines, on the web, and on television), and we wanted our customers to have a site they could turn to in order to access that information. Our website is designed to give you an overview of our business and services, but it's also designed to be a resource of dog and pet information that you can use on a daily basis. We will provide links to retail outlets as well as links to sites devoted to pet safety and health. We hope you enjoy our blog and if you have suggestions, please submit them to us through the Contact Us section of our website.
Recently we were advised by some concerned customers about the use of Cocoa Mulch in our gardens. Apparently the mulch contains a toxic chemical that can be fatal to dogs and cats if ingested. Springtime is the time to re-invent and restore our sleeping gardens, so please be aware of this danger. Cocoa Mulch can be purchased at all the various garden and home improvement stores in our area. Watch out, and don't forget to tell your neighbors if you own a dog or cat.

Loving Care Makeover of the Month: Mohawk
Life on the street isn't easy. A dog can get into a lot of dirt and grime. So when Mohawk arrived to Orphans of the Storm as a stray who had been living on the streets for who knows how long, they needed to call in the experts. Loving Care Pet Services heeded the call. We picked up little Mohawk and went to work. It was not long before we got through all of the dirt, street grime, and even a few dug-in burs to reveal the beautiful, sweet poodle that had been hidden.Read more...

summer to fall fashion
Budgets are tight and we are looking to stretch the dollar anywhere we can -- but can we stretch our summer duds to fall? Absolutely, say the experts!
"Transform your summer wardrobe into fall fashion by adding black tights, black boots and a cropped cardigan to a summer floral dress," suggests Anya Sarre, the ShoeDazzle.com's Chief Accessories Stylist.
Sarre also suggests we take the wardrobe from summer to fall effortlessly by layering dark and jewel tone colors with your summer brights, and to ditch your wedges and flip flops for textured boots and chunky heels to instantly turn your summer look into a fall favorite.
Where to start? Take a look at your basics -- and then look at them in a whole new light.
Floral jeans
Print jeans will still be big for fall, although many will transition away from florals. To update, pair with either low boots or big, chunky ankle boots and fall's leather motorcycle or bomber jackets.
Colored jeans
Color remains an important trend for fall. Pair with an oversized convex coat and loafers.
Maxi dresses
These dresses are the easiest style of all to transition into early fall. Wear with a denim jacket and scarf and flat boots for a Jessica Alba-inspired fall look.
Denim shorts
Summer's favorite item can be extended into fall by adding tights and boots. For a bohemian feel, top with a slouchy, open knit sweater and add low boots. For a structured look, add a fitted blazer and heeled ankle "statement" boots to the tights and shorts.

LOWELL -- The city's Retirement Board voted 4-1 Monday afternoon to strip former License Commission Chairman Walter Bayliss Jr. of his $876.96 annual pension, which, if it withstands an appeal, means the 68-year-old Bayliss will also lose his health insurance through the city.
The board's attorney cast the decision as one in which the board acted to rectify Bayliss being improperly admitted to the city's Retirement System in 2006.
But Bayliss called the decision retaliation for his legal challenge to City Manager Bernie Lynch's removal of him from the License Commission last year and said he will appeal the board's vote.
The board first discussed issues surrounding Bayliss' retirement soon after Bayliss settled his
"It is payback," Bayliss said. "Bernie delights in it."
In an effort to back up his claim, Bayliss noted that Lynch's appointee to the board, Chief Financial Officer Tom Moses, helped lead the charge to strip him of his pension, as did Auditor Sheryl Wright, another city employee. Wright brought the issue to the board's attention.
"I would not have been as upset if they walked out of the room," Bayliss said. "There was definitely the appearance of a conflict of interest."
Lynch denied he had anything to do with the board's investigation or decision on Bayliss' pension.
"Nothing could be further from the truth," Lynch said, adding
Wright made the motion to strip Bayliss of his pension and it was seconded by Moses.
Wright, Moses, Chairman Joseph Mahoney and Michael Brennan voted in favor of the motion to rescind Bayliss' retirement. Mahoney is a former city firefighter and Brennan is the sessions clerk in Lowell Superior Court's civil session.
Bill Desrosiers, a former city fire chief who participated in the meeting by
The vote was a change from a similar vote two months ago. During the board's December meeting, Wright and Moses voted to strip Bayliss of his pension, while the other three members voted in opposition.
The primary reason given for the board's decision Monday was that Bayliss was granted his retirement in 2006 despite never having resigned from his position as a license commissioner.
Retirement law requires that an employee officially resign from his or her current position before retirement is granted. While receiving a pension, Bayliss continued serving on the license board and receiving compensation for it until he was removed by Lynch last year.
"There has to be a break
Prior to the vote, Moses and Wright highlighted how evidence obtained by the board, including from Lynch and Bayliss, indicated Bayliss never resigned from the License Commission.
Wright said Bayliss never asked for a reappointment until his term expired, which was in 2008.
Brennan and Mahoney declined to comment after the meeting.
In a recent letter to the board, Bayliss said on the day he handed in his retirement papers in 2006, he was told by the Retirement Office he could stay on as a license commissioner because it was no longer a full-time job.
"It is their mistake and I have to pay for it," said Bayliss, a Vietnam veteran.
Bayliss, who has suffered two heart attacks, said he retired because he could not afford to lose his health insurance and would be able to maintain it as a retiree.
Sacco did not dispute what Bayliss had been told, but said the board could not overlook the fact Bayliss did not resign from the License Commission when he retired even if it was a result of "a misunderstanding or misinformation."
Desrosiers said he thought the board's review of Bayliss' pension was "off-base" and was only brought about because of Bayliss' legal challenge of his License Commission removal.
"If he had succumbed to the demands from the city manager and resigned from his position, this never would have come before us," said Desrosiers. "A good city employee who donated many years of service to the city is going to get the raw end of the deal. It is just tragic."
Sacco, who emphasized Bayliss is suspected of no wrongdoing, said the board has to act on information brought before it to correct any errors.
"The board does not take these decisions lightly," said Sacco.
Bayliss, who was not present at Monday's meeting, would have to appeal the board's decision to the state's Contributory Retirement Appeal Board within 15 days of receiving the board's decision.
"(Lynch) might think he is hurting me, but that does not mean he can go silently into the night," Bayliss said in promising his appeal.
Gerry Dunn, a 78-year-old city retiree, attended Monday's meeting and expressed his disappointment with the board after the vote.
"He went out of his way to help veterans," Dunn, a Korean War veteran said of Bayliss. "This is a shame."
"What does that have to do with this?" responded Mahoney.
Asked why he thought the board voted the way it did, Dunn told The Sun he thinks it was personal, pointing to the fact Moses and Wright work for the city.
City Councilor Rita Mercier said she was sad to hear that Bayliss would lose his pension and health insurance, especially because she thought he was guaranteed to keep his health insurance as part of his lawsuit settlement with the city.
"After all the things he has done for the city and veterans, this is the thanks he gets," Mercier said.
City Councilor Joseph Mendonca said he did not believe the settlement protected Bayliss' health insurance.

LOWELL -- One of five men arrested in a melee outside the SAC club Sunday, who was later found to have a loaded 9 mm semi-automatic handgun in his coat pocket while.
The discovery of a firearm in Kang's pocket while he was at the booking window inside the police station has triggered an internal investigation into whether any police policies and procedures were violated because Kang wasn't searched at the scene, said Lowell police spokesman Capt. Kelly Richardson.
In court, Kang's co-defendant, Tien To, 34, of 418 Westford St., first floor, Lowell, who has a lengthy criminal record of 21 cases dating to 2000, was ordered held on $500 cash bail after pleading not guilty to assault and battery on a police officer, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct..
Sambo Sok, 29, of 16 Sidney St.,
There is a warrant for his arrest.
According to court documents, the following occurred:
Lowell police responded to the SAC Club (Sportsmen's Athletic Club) at the corner of Market and Hanover streets at 1:26 a.m. on Sunday. police backup arrived, Czarnionka grabbed Kang. Other men who had been standing by began to approach the officer in an aggressive manner, claiming nothing was going on and that Kang should be released.
Ly and Sok allegedly approached the officer in an aggressive way, telling him to release Kang, Czarnionka (sic) volatile," Czarnionka wrote.
When the police transport wagon arrived and Czarnionka was walking Kang to the wagon to be searched by another officer, allegedlyblock, Czarnionka wrote that he was informed that when Kang was searched at the booking window, he was found to be carrying a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun with seven rounds in the magazine in his jacket pocket.
"I had not been able to frisk Kang after handcuffing him (at the scene) due to the continuous and intentional interference by Sok, Ly and others toward me ...," Czarnionka wrote.
All four defendants who have been arraigned are due back in court March 8 for pretrial conferences.

DOVER, N.H. -- Donald Andolina remembers a well-known Dover businessman complaining about how slowly money grows in bank accounts these days during their casual meeting 18 months ago.
There is a better way to invest, Nickolas Skaltsis told Andolina. For years, Skaltsis said, he had turned around distressed real-estate properties for healthy profit -- a high-yielding investment method that his existing investors swore by when contacted by Andolina.
Andolina was in.
The former Westford resident, who served as a New Hampshire state representative for Dover at the time, wrote Skaltsis a $20,000 check.
The problem was, according to the N.H. Attorney General's Office and the N.H. Bureau of Securities Regulation, Skaltsis wasn't using the money to flip properties at all. Instead, Skaltsis, a former Dover School Board chairman, allegedly swindled 13 investors, including Andolina and Tewksbury School District Superintendent John O'Connor, out of hundreds of thousands of dollars in a Ponzi scheme to spend it on his debt payments and shopping.
"I made a mistake," O'Connor said in a phone interview Tuesday about his decision to invest with Skaltsis.
"People fell prey to him because everybody knows him," Andolina said of Skaltsis. "(Swindlers) try to get friendly with you. They make you feel like you are a friend and can trust them."
The N.H. Attorney General's Office arrested Skaltsis on Thursday and charged him with 19 felony counts of theft
The investors identified in the 19 charges lost a total of $287,000. the Attorney General's Office said in its press release.
In the meantime, the N.H. Bureau of Security Regulations, which also investigated the case, alleged that Skaltsis has issued at least 21 unsecured promissory notes to raise $327,500 from the 13 investors since February 2011, of which $304,000 remains owed in addition to the promised interest.
Skaltsis is also accused of raising an additional $32,500 from investors during 2010. Skaltsis falsely promised the investors that he would use these funds to buy, rehabilitate and sell distressed properties in Strafford County in New Hampshire while, in reality, he used the money to pay old debts, mixing the funds with a private account and cashing them for personal purposes -- wrongdoing that fits the definition of a so-called Ponzi scheme -- according to the Bureau of Securities Regulation.
Andolina, who worked as an IT operations manager at Raytheon Missile Systems between 1988 and 1998, said the investors only realized something had gone wrong when Skaltsis failed to pay back their money. Left high and dry, they would repeatedly urge Skaltsis to pay up to no avail.
"John O'Connor used to drive to Erik Drive (where Skaltsis lived) in his truck with a cardboard sign that said, 'Nick Skaltsis owes me $15,000,'" Andolina said. "But, it really didn't matter because only Nick saw it."
O'Connor, who served as Dover School District's superintendent between 2004 and 2010 before taking his current position in Tewksbury, lives in Dover. O'Connor said he met Skaltsis in 1998 when Skaltsis began serving on the School Board. O'Connor said Tuesday that he made a bad investment choice but declined to further comment, saying it's something he did in his private life and had nothing to do with his District job.
Skaltsis, who last served on the School Board in 2004, once owned many buildings in downtown Dover and was involved in various community affairs.
"This guy was born and raised in Dover and was one of the pillars of the community," Andolina said.
After two weeks of trying to get his money back from Skaltsis last August, Andolina reported the problem to the Dover Police Department, prompting investigations by police, the AG's office and the Bureau of Securities Regulation. Andolina, who was the first victim to alert police, said about 10 investors showed up for the first meeting with other alleged victims that he set up at the local library.
"They were afraid, perhaps embarrassed" to seek charges against Skaltsis, Andolina said. Andolina then sent out a public alert to the City Council and the Dover Chamber of Commerce, warning the residents that a Ponzi scheme may be in operation in the Dover area and that some local investors had recently lost money.
That "set a fire under Nick," Andolina said.
All the assets that belong to Skaltsis and the businesses associated with him, Liberty Realty Trust and Phoenix Asset Group, are now frozen per order that the Bureau of Securities Regulation obtained from Strafford County Superior Court Justice Brian Tucker. The Bureau is seeking restitution to investors from Skaltsis and the aforementioned businesses.
Skaltsis was arraigned in the Rochester Circuit Court in Rochester, N.H., on Thursday. The court allowed him to remain at New Hampshire State Hospital, a state-run mental-health facility in Concord, on personal recognizance bail that will be immediately converted to $300,000 cash bail upon his discharge from the hospital. Skaltsis has been hospitalized there since an October suicide attempt, according to Foster's Daily Democrat.

This past Cinco de Mayo weekend Albuquerque, New Mexico AKA Duke City played host to O.D.B. and Lowrider Magazine's event at the state fairgrounds, some five miles east of the downtown skyline. It's third stop of its 2010 tour, O.D.B. chose Duke city, which is home to some of the richest culture in the southwestern United States. From the tasty green or red chile available at the dining tables at home or local eateries to the amazing climate and it's warm, friendly people. And so, what better way to experience some of New Mexico's best lowriders than to have it at one place big enough to showcase such a variety of traditionals, low bikes and bombs. The region hasn't had Lowrider Magazine show such love for quite a while as they did during the show and afterwards as they stayed in town to do a few photo sessions. There were plenty of great rides to experience first hand as the people of "ABQ" roamed the grounds. With more than 400 entries, the indoor/outdoor venue reached full capacity with some of the area's custom lows, dubs and imports. Showcased on the main floor were clubs like the Imperials, Dukes, and Rollerz Only car clubs. Some top quality bikes were also on hand kicking off the entertainment were musical artists and rappers like Mike Jones, Baby Bash, Gorilla Zoe and Jimmy Roses. For the horn dogs there was the booty-shaking bikini contest where 10 girlies vied for the $250 First Place prize that ended up going to the lovely Tanya Love who was out from San Diego, California. Keep an eye out for Tanya, she's been modeling her way throughout the show circuit and is bound to get a few magazine layouts in the near future. Since the weather was quite iffy, the hop was held under a big tent-like structure, where it sheltered most of the crowd and hop contestants from the occasional deluge. There was a delay before the hop, seems that someone misplaced the bolts that held the top portion of the measuring stick so the hop crew had to improvise by using screw drivers and shipping tape. Hey, it could've been chewing gum and rubber bands, as long as it held for the duration of the hop, right? The pit didn't have too many entrants but where they lacked in number they made up for in enthusiasm. The guys at Hi Low Hydraulics had the crowd going with their super clean black '63 Chevy Impala that had plenty of go it to go along with the show. The car was show worthy but demonstrated that it could hop with the best of them. Not to be out done, the guys from Epstein's had their blue '64 Impala do it's thing and made their appearance a memorable one. So whether the weather was sunny or soggy, it's hard to keep the lowriders of New Mexico down. They showed us what they've got and shared the pride in their rides be it, three or four wheeled creations. We look forward to seeing more beautiful rides from the Land of Enchantment. Later.

NCUA to launch ad campaign with Suze Orman
The NCUA is using personal finance expert Suze Orman in a new set of TV messages explaining the similarities between the NCUA and FDIC protection for members. There are two ads, a 60-second and a 30-second ad, that explain that the $250,000 insurance for credit union members is permanent. The TV ad also direct members and consumers to the
NCUA website to take advantage of an e-Calculator to ensure their money is covered.
Ms. Orman says in the commercial, "They're virtually identical. NCUA protects the money you have in a credit union account up to $250,000, same as FDIC protects money in a bank account."
Orman also points out that both are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, so no matter what happens, your money is safe, provided you stay within the coverage limits. And a new law makes this $250,000 coverage limit permanent.
The "Keep your money NCUA-safe" campaign includes TV public service announcements (PSAs) and mallscapes (information billboards in malls) featuring Orman, as well as radio PSAs and the online e-calculator that consumers can check to make certain their funds are fully insured.

Jack Abramoff’s Guide To Buying Congressmen
Disgraced Washington, DC superlobbyist Jack Abramoff, released from jail in June, has a few suggestions for lobbying reform. He should know. Most of this stuff is primarily applicable to the US, but in the Netherlands too, the donation system is vague and the revolving door (the practice of former public officials getting high-paid jobs at companies they used to regulate) is unfortunately a very prominent aspect of political life. As witnessed by certain ministers of Transportation becoming directors of major airline companies.
From an interview with Abramoff:
Disgraced ex-lobbyist Jack Abramoff is out of jail. He was released in June. He now works as an accountant at a kosher pizza parlor. And he needs a literary agent. “I was actually thinking of writing a book,” he told “60 Minutes.” “The Idiot’s Guide to Buying a Congressman.”
In the interview, Abramoff gives away some of the tricks of his former trade. The big one? Dangle a job, he told Lesley Stahl. .”
Abramoff.”
Once the key staffers or legislators were bought, the trick was getting clients what they wanted without attracting attention. “So what we did was we crafted language that was so obscure, so confusing, so uninformative, but so precise.” The following line of text, for instance, quietly won Abramoff’s Native American clients a casino license: “Public law 100-89 is amended by striking section 207 (101 stat. 668, 672).”
From his book on tips for lobbying reform:.
(…)
No gifts. “Not only should lobbyists be banned from contributing to officials’ organizations and campaign funds, they should be banned from gift-giving as well.
(…)?”

How do I post a link to an article available in a Loyola subscription database on my course page?
Many of the databases to which the Loyola Libraries subscribe require that you prove you are a member of the Loyola community in order to use them. If you are accessing these from on-campus, it is assumed that you are logged into a University network. In order to use these resources off campus, however, you have to log into a system (or proxy server) that allows your browser to act as if it is on campus.
Thus, in order to create a direct link from your course page to an article in a Loyola subscription database, you will need to create a "modified" link. The modified link is where you must change the link so that students can access proprietary databases and materials from any access point. To create a modified link, you can simply copy and paste the URL (link) for the article you want to use in your course page, and then add the following prefix:
Depending on the database, the link should lead directly to the article itself, or to a "flagship" screen where students will need to enter their University login and password.
Note that, no matter the kind of database you are using, you must use a "persistent link" to ensure that the link will work for the duration of the semester. A persistent link is a permanent link (one that doesn't change over time). Not all databases and electronic journals allow persistent links to be made. This is because database providers (e.g., EBSCO), which provide access to periodicals of many publishers, sometimes remove full-text access from their databases due to contractual and other changes.
Specific instructions for linking to articles from Blackboard are provided below. Law faculty who have additional questions about creating links from their course pages should contact their individual Law Library liaison.
Specific Instructions for Linking from Blackboard:
- Login to Blackboard and select the class to which you wish to add the link.
- Open the Control Panel.
- Select the "Content Area" where you would like to put the link.
- Select "External Link" and you will be asked to supply the information about the link. The URL and Name are required, and the description is strongly encouraged. This may be a direct link, or a modified link.
- Click the "Submit" button.

The victim of Vakarr's verbal onslaught listened to his words with a mixture of shame and rage. Everything he said was absolutely true: she hadn't protected Oleg, had the foresight to watch her own feet carefully enough to avoid a trap, or possessed the strength to rescue the unconscious Meara. However, she'd never asked to be a leader--only someone who stayed in front of the Purge! "I'm no telepath," she hissed through clenched teeth, "and cannot divine the future. All I have is my...connection," Per'dra said, pausing because she didn't want to reveal the name of the Great Wyrm while the archers above were listening. "All I want is to stay alive and ahead of the Purge!"
"SILENCE!"
shouted a voice from above, and an arrow flew at Per'dra.
However, against the Dark Elf's wildest calculations, the Bard
caught it.
Instead of tossing the arrow back into the treetops toward the archer who had fired it, however, she balanced it carefully in her fingertips, intending to jab it into the slit in Vakarr's helmet that revealed his eyes. If necessary, she'd gouge at least one of them out! An infernal fury coursed through her veins--the same fury that she'd felt when she'd been continually insulted and underestimated by her "betters" in the slums of Paryer. Was Vakarr the same as they were? He was certainly cold, disdainful, and calculating. However, did he possess the same cruelty? She suddenly remembered the noble who'd attempted to--
No. Not now. We're under a stalled attack, fool!
The arrow Per'dra clenched in her fist was a mere flick away from Vakarr's right eye. Surprisingly, he wasn't springing to attack her in return. Instead, his stance remained planted, as if to ward off a shield bash. Not even a gale could knock him over, the Bard suspected, if it suddenly happened along! Making a split-second decision, she snapped the arrow clean in half instead of using it to make her opponent lose half of his sight. Disgusted with herself, she flung the halves away:
"You say I'm weak and pathetic, Vakarr. Fine. At least I'm sensible enough not to wound someone who is
supposed
to be my ally, no matter how much I wanted to right now. What do you suggest I do?"
Pause.
"I'm asking honestly, since the Dark Elves didn't want to let me into their city either." She was shocked at how much she sincerely meant this; she'd intended to be as haughty as her friend-turned-foe. Still, her berserker's rage was not abating easily. Sweat beaded on her forehead.
"Milady?" That was Meara. "I could whip this arse-hole's hind end if you won't."
Per'dra's head swiveled nearly all the way around. "Sorry-no. Stand down."

Great article about 2 great men. One of my fantasies was to be able to spend a few days in the company of WFB. I miss him almost as much as my father and in many ways I considered Mr. Buckley a father figure and mentor. Oh, to live such a full and consequential life!

Last Friday night we hopped in the car and headed down Hwy 54 to Harry’s Market in Whitecross. I’ve always meant to stop and check out this cute store but I always seem to be pressed for time. If I’m on 54 it usually means I’m headed into Chapel Hill for a dentist appointment or to have dinner with family of friends and if I stop, I’ll be late. So when we heard that our friend Lizzy was going to be playing at Harry’s on Friday, we made sure to put it on our calendar.
Harry’s is a hodgepodge of sorts. They have a meeting room you can rent out. A little section devoted to the local equestrian community. They have a corner of the store that houses “Great Earth Vitamin”. The actual Harry’s store carries an assortment of local produce and crafts. I was thrilled to spot Boylan Grape Soda in the cooler. Yum! Nate went for the Boylan Ginger Ale. Outside there was a portable pizza oven set up making delicious, made-to-order pizzas with super fresh toppings. I tried the veggie pizza with a sweet balsamic reduction sauce but chose the chicken artichoke pizza for myself.
Unfortunately, the band was under an awning and a tent so it was difficult to get photos of them without standing in front of everyone and being “that guy (or girl)” who disrupts everything. Next time maybe we’ll get there earlier so we have front row seats

Me, in my first LD
Language: GML (Game Maker Pro 8)
Graphics: Paint, Possibly Spriter, and GM’s built in editor
Computer: Intel i5 processor, 8GB RAM, Radeon HD 6450 Graphics card,– Custom-built by me
Sound: BFXR, Audacity(if necessary) and Musagi, if I can figure it out
This will be my first ever Ludum Dare, and I hope for it to be a good one. Unfortunately, my game won’t be in-browser, and I don’t think I can learn flash/Java in two weeks. I was actually inspired to try my hand at this by Minecraft’s creator, Notch, in fact.
But basically, I’m new to this and like making small games, so I’ll try my best, and vote for other’s I think are good, and we’ll see how we go.
I call my ‘business’ as such, QueegeyCorp Productions, or QCP, and this gets stamped on all my games, so my logo is likely to float about.
On another note, Hello all, I’m sure it will be great to meet people!
Hello, new guy
Welcome to LD, the oblivion of time management with some extra panic! Don’t let that discourage you, though. It’s really fun, otherwise I wouldn’t be doing my 6th LD by now. Hehe.
If you want to meet all the weird but fun people of LD be sure to hop onto IRC, it’s always great fun, and there’s all kinds of people. From Unity users over Game Maker guys to fanatic 24/7 IRC bot coders! I’m sure you’ll enjoy some great times there!
See ya,
Folis

Electronic book pioneer and founder of Project Gutenberg, Michael Hart, passed away on Tuesday at his home in Urbana Ill. Long before eReaders became a prevalent part of our society, Hart, who is described as “an ardent technologist and futurist,” sought ways of making electronic versions of books available to the masses.
In an obituary posted on the Project Gutenberg website, Dr. Gregory B. Newby.
In 1998, Mark Frauenfelder wrote a profile of Hart for Wired in which Hart is quoted as saying, “there’s going to be some gizmo that kids carry around in their back pocket that has everything in it – including our books, if they want.” Early pioneers like Vannevar Bush envisioned electronic devices as far back as 1945 that would store massive volumes of books electronically. Hart, however, possessed that rare mix of both foresight and gumption to help make this vision a reality.
As expressed in his obituary, making literature “available to all people” was something Hart wished to help others strive towards. Perhaps the truest expression of Hart’s wish is a commitment to the distribution of ideas across countless platforms, i.e., eBooks, print, blogs, spoken word, etc. Personally, I feel that in order to make literature available to all people the distribution mechanisms should work in concert with one another and never be limited to one source. Learning, I believe, should remain impartial to any one file format or distribution mechanism – eBook or otherwise.
With that said, I think that as we enter a new age marked by the proliferation of electronic books and a growing host of eBook reading “gizmo[s],” let’s not forget to take a few moments to honor pioneers like Michael Hart who have remained steadfast in their commitment to the distribution of literature and ideas.
One Comment
It is only because of Michael Hart that I am here today. About six years ago I suddenly came to know about Gutenberg and Mr. Hart. Out of curiosity, I wrote a letter to him, and lo! his reply came. I was pleasantly surprised. He gave me tips about writing an ebook and how to make it available.
Today I have hundreds of books in many book stores all over the world.
I am highly indebted to Late Mr. Michael Hart.
Yes, he was a great man.

Yesterday was Summer Registration Opening Day for the local park and recs dept. I wanted to get Derek in a gym type class that I have heard excellent reviews on, and a swimming class. The phone lines open at 8, and the web at 10. It felt like buying Def Leppard tickets in the 80′s, redial, redial, redial.
I ended up giving up around 8:30 and waiting till 10, hoping there would be some spots left. I managed to snag a spot in the really good class, there were only 4 left by the time they opened the web at 10. As soon as I got it in my cart, which reserves it, the website went pretty south as everyone clammored on to try to reserve things that way. I imagined all these moms of preschoolers cursing each other and trying to get spots, along with yoga practitioners, weight lifters, and crazy artists.
But, I got him his spot in the class I had hoped for, and then added a late-summer swimming class. The pools get very crowded in the summer, understandably, so it’s nice to have a month of knowing you will have good pool space at class, at the very least.
Last night DLJ started up the grill for the first time. He made wonderful burgers, mixing the meat with garlic and spices before making the patties. It was really tasty, with roasted potato salad and fruit.
Today is mostly a fun day. Popsicles, planting a few seeds, and DLJ just made homemade french toast, so it’s almost time to eat. I think we will take a bike ride today as well, and who knows what else!
My first boro is done and out of the kiln, I need to take some photos and now I am waiting impatiently for my bigger order to arrive. I just got a few small bits to test with, and I have over 2 pounds of the stuff I won over two years ago at Glass Stock. Speaking of, I got into it again this year, yay! 4 days of glass amazingness at the coast. I am so thrilled. It is a great event and you learn SO much. SO SO much. And have fun!

A £25,000 reward has been offered for the return of the Wenlok Jug - if it is in a 'reasonable' condition.
Zurich, the company that insures the Stockwood Discovery Centre from where the jug was stolen, announced on Friday that it will pay the money as long as the recipient had no involvement in the theft.
The historical artefact, which was bought for £750,000 in 2006, was stolen from the museum on May 12.
Paul Redington from Zurich's Major Loss team says: "Zurich fully realises the importance of the Wenlok Jug both to the museum and to the people of Luton. We are therefore offering £25,000 for the return of the jug in a reasonable condition.
"Stockwood Discovery Centre is a place where people can freely view and enjoy such objects. We are dealing with criminals who have deprived the public of that experience.
"These cases are not just about writing a cheque. Ultimately, Zurich wants to assist the museum's efforts to get this jug back where it belongs, and so that it can be enjoyed by future generations."
Karen Perkins, Director of Museums for Luton Culture says:"We hope that this offer from our insurance company will accelerate the return of the Wenlok jug. We know that people in Luton care about it as a part of Luton's heritage."
If you have any information that can help with the investigation, call Bedfordshire Police on 101.

FORT MINOR - START IT ALL UP LYRICS
Artist: Fort Minor Lyrics

Date: Added(Last modified) at 6:54 am October 07, 2012.
Yo
Give me a second, I'll write about my pain for pages
I got a head full of frustrated phrases
So just bear with me as i get this out
You know the type of person that i'm talking about
These people who want to act like they've got your back
They never had your back, they just stab you in it
I never pretended i had it all together inside,
I got insecurities and things I'm trying to hide,
and I could never seem to get anything right,
and I could never seem to stop busting my fight
and I could never seem to get it right with you,
and I could never redeem myself when i'm through,
but sometimes, you know what, I just don't care,
I'm gonna speak my mind and let everybody stare
This is the last time, I'm telling you real loud,
if you want to tell me I'm wrong, let's do it right now
[Chorus:]
Start it all up, I'm ready to go
All I need is a signal just to let me know
Come on, start it all up, 'cuz all I want,
is an excuse to let loose the tension I got
Start it all up, I'm ready to go
All I need is a signal just to let me know
Come on, start it all up, 'cuz all I want,
is an excuse to let loose the tension I got
Give me a minute, I'll fill a newspaper with collumns,
'cuz people saying that I got an additude problem,
that I'm negative when I rhyme, I complain,
pessimistic all the time, in these lines
All the same, I just talk like this on a record and let it out,
I just cock back and let it all come flooding out
I just say the things that I know I feel are real,
I peel back the kin 'till the nerves reveal
You want to come with me, come closer to the speaker
You want to run with me, you're gonna have to dig deeper
You want to let it all out, I'll show you how
You want to tell me I'm wrong, we can do it right now
[Chorus]
Mike Shinoda
The most ferocious
Mike Shinoda
With or without an accomplice [x2]
[Chorus]

Calex Electronics’ new PyroPen U is a pocket-sized infrared thermometer that conveniently clips into a pocket, just like a pen. It measures temperatures from -20 to +500degC with a resolution of 0.1deg and provides instantaneous, maximum, minimum and average readings in degC or degF. Adjustable emissivity allows the unit to measure different materials and a built-in laser makes sighting simple.
This new model has a built-in memory for storing up to 100 temperatures, which can be downloaded at a later date using the CalexSoft software and USB cable provided. It can also be left connected to a PC for continuous real-time data acquisition and graph plotting. The data is then available to export in a comma separated variable (CSV) format to other programs as required.
Each unit is supplied in a foam-padded hard case as standard, which helps protect it when not in use and provides a neat way to store the software and interface cable.
Calex’s PyroPen U is particularly useful for test, inspection and maintenance applications in industries such as food and beverage, automotive research and manufacture, paper and packaging, and HVAC. However, when hooked up to a PC the PyroPen U is also suitable for applications such as machine monitoring, laboratory work, electronics design and R&D.
The PyroPen U is RoHS-compliant and conforms to EN 61326-1:2006 for EMC. It is designed and built by Calex Electronics in the UK, a company with more than 30 years’ experience of non-contact infra-red temperature measurement.

March 15 marked the 10th anniversary of Proposal A, the constitutional amendment that was intended to narrow the spending gap between school districts, and dramatically reduce property tax rates. To mark the date Michigan State University held a conference in Lansing assessing the school finance initiative. The retrospective brought together a prominent group of scholars, and many of the key players in Michigan government over the last 10 years, including former Gov. John Engler, U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow, former House Speaker Paul Hillegonds, former Senate Majority Leader Dick Posthumus, and current House Speaker Rick Johnson.
Mackinac Center legislative analyst Jack McHugh served on a panel at the event that responded to a study by MSU education policy analysts David Arsen and David N. Plank. The study recommended increasing the six-mill state school property tax to eight mills. Besides McHugh, five PhD’s, the preeminent expert on the state budget, and state Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Watkins gave presentations. No panelist besides McHugh expressed any misgivings in principle with the tax hike recommendation. Here is what McHugh said to the hundreds present, who represented Michigan’s educational and political establishments:
Thank you for the opportunity to be here today. I’m going to come at this from a different direction. While Professors Plank and Arsen’s study usefully points out some problems related to school districts with declining enrollments, and those with a high proportion of "high-cost" students, there is a huge gap between the data and the conclusion.
How can you say that a tax hike is needed when you have only looked at the revenue side, and not how the money is being spent? Here are five issues that were not addressed in the study:
1. The Expenditure Side
You can’t justify higher taxes unless current revenues are getting the maximum bang-for-the-buck. There is plenty of evidence that they are not, such as:
A former Michigan Education Special Services Association (MESSA) director has estimated that if schools provided health coverage common in the private sector instead of the current gold-plated plans, they could save $400 million a year.
Michigan’s "prevailing-wage" law prohibits awarding government construction contracts to the lowest-bidding contractor unless he also pays an artificially high wage based on union pay scales. Mackinac Center research suggests that this increases school construction costs by at least 10 percent. Without these inflated costs, schools could save $150 million a year.
The Mackinac Center has documented many cases in which privatizing school lunch, janitor, transportation and other support services has saved big money, but the MEA teachers’ union fights this at every turn.
Annual school administrative expenses increased 6 percent a year from 1998 to 2002. That’s double the inflation rate.
2. Capital Spending
Capital spending has skyrocketed and must be considered as part of the equation. School system capital revenues statewide increased from $458 million in 1994 to $1.1 billion in 2000. Local debt, building and site, and sinking fund taxes rose from 2.6 to 4.3 mills. Between 1999 and 2002, long-term school debt rose from $6,261 per student to $8,100.
Much of this is really operational spending, such as repairs and short-lived assets like computers. Only under Enron-style accounting is it not counted as operational. The study points out that capital spending is uneven across districts, but the bottom line is that, on average, statewide school millage rates have already risen at least 1.7 mills since 1994.
3. Declining Pupil Counts
Prof. Plank points out that school districts with declining enrollments need transitional help. But the issue is bigger than this. At least through 2012 there are projected to be fewer school-aged children in Michigan. Total enrollment will have dropped from 1,743,000 in 2000 to 1,616,000 in 2012. That is a decline of 127,000 students, or 7.3 percent.
This fact and the debt and capital spending numbers suggest two things:
Districts are building overly luxurious schools in order to compete with neighboring school districts under the cross-district schools-of-choice law.
Schools are not consolidating buildings and services, like a rational private sector business would, when faced with these demographics. The owner of three grocery stores in a town that just lost its major employer would consolidate, not expand and add luxury features.
4. Reorganizing and Modernizing for the 21st Century.
A former deputy state superintendent of schools recently commented in the Detroit News that Michigan’s school system needs fundamental change. He suggested:
Year round classes;
Administrators loyal to the community, not to their profession;
Reform of the "rule-encrusted, seat-time-based teacher preparation and credentialing system."
I would add that we should rationalize special-ed delivery. An effort to do so in 2001 was annihilated when the special-ed establishment mobilized parents of disabled children by telling them untrue scare stories. Parenthetically, they are using the same tactic now to gut ISD reform.
5. Getting the Incentives Right.
We will never achieve excellence without real competition between schools and school districts, and we’ll never achieve genuine competition without giving parents a choice when it comes to where they send their children to school. There is every reason to believe that competition would bring the same excellence and value to education that it does everywhere else. If everyone were required to shop in only one assigned grocery store, you would find mediocre products, and high prices. That describes public education today. Charters and inter-district schools-of-choice are just baby steps. The Mackinac Center believes a tuition tax credit system is the best way to bring both excellence and value to K-12 education.
This relates directly to another question that was raised today: "What is an adequate level of revenue to fund public schools?"
The answer is, no central planner can ever say how much would be adequate, because without a free market in education there is no way to perform the pricing function. Early in the 20th century economist Ludwig von Mises demonstrated how socialism could never work because of this.
With choice, however, all kinds of innovations and bright ideas will be tried, and some bad ones too. The market will quickly sort these out, sending more dollars to the former, and driving the latter out of business. Only this process can truly determine how much money is "adequate" to provide a good education.
Thank you again for the opportunity to present an alternative point of view here today.

Taiwan-based research firm TrendForce believes that a completely redesigned iPad 5 will launch in the third quarter of 2013, reigniting consumer interest in Apple's 10in tablet.
With the launch of the iPad mini in November and a growing number of smaller tablets being unveiled by rival technology companies, industry watchers believed that compact tablets would become the dominant form factor in the market. However, TrendForce analyst Eric Chiou's findings suggest that Apple's overhaul of the full-size iPad could help consumer interest recover, reports B," said TrendForce in a report last week.
It's widely believed that Apple's fifth-generation iPad will take design inspiration from its smaller counterpart. SEE: iPad 5 release date, rumours and leaked images
"Secondly, it is to underline the product positioning, the long-beloved iPad 3 is expected to retire with honor with the reveal of new iPad," the report added.
TrendForce believed that the iPad mini will account for 65 per cent of Apple tablet shipments during the first half of the year, but that the new iPad's launch in quarter three could see a 50/50 divide between the two tablets.
TrendForce also expects that cost reductions for the iPad 5's display could lead to a smaller bill of materials, though it may not mean a price cut for the end user.

Lexmark’s announcement earlier this week that it will stop making inkjet printers shocked me. I’ve been testing and reviewing printers for as long as Lexmark has been in the inkjet printer business—almost 20 years.
What does it mean for the inkjet market in general—and for your inkjet printer (if you own one)—that a sizable company like Lexmark is getting out of the business? Let’s examine this decision.
Why Lexmark matters
A lot of people may not care whether Lexmark inkjets live or die. After all,_0<<
To Lexmark’s credit, however, over the past several years, the company has made concerted efforts to improve its products. For instance, a line of small-office printers delivered good speed, solid features, and reliable print quality, along with cheaper inks and longer warranties than the competition did.
Just a few months ago, the company launched a corporate line of inkjets called OfficeEdge, and those; will businesses fill the void?
Lexmark’s decision to amputate an entire business unit suggests that its sales numbers were dramatically bad—bad enough to make a hard stop its only viable choice. After all, it costs money to design a printer, manufacture, and sell it.
The profit margins are in the ink, however, so my recent discovery that Lexmark had increased the prices of some of its inks by as much as 20 percent might have been a clue that the company wasn’t doing well.
The money in printer sales seems to be moving away from consumers and toward business users. In the past three years, Epson and Lexmark have been turning away from consumer inkjet sales to focus more on workforce inkjet printers.
HP CEO Meg Whitman
For instance, HP CEO Meg Whitman said on August 22—as part of the company’s recent and dismal earnings announcement—that a steep decline in HP printer sales was due in part to a company decision to de-emphasise products for its lower-end customers.
HP may see a better future in its longstanding Officejet line of business inkjet printers. Similarly, Epson has made a big investment in its WorkForce high-end inkjets. Until this week, another competitor in this area was Lexmark’s OfficeEdge line. Kodak, emerging out of Chapter 11 bankruptcy, is the outlier; and it’s hardly a bellwether, honour existing warranties and continue to sell supplies, but the duration of that commitment is by no means certain.
I can see Lexmark continuing to sell ink through the end of its longest inkjet warranties, which would be three years from this week. After that, we might well see a rapid phase-out.
Lexmark’s best inkjets right now are those aimed at small businesses, but few small businesses will want to stick with a product that could lose manufacturer support within a few years’ time.
The other open question is this: What will happen to Lexmark’s printer partnership with Dell?.
I wonder how much of this is pressure from (higher quality, lower unit print cost) laser printers. Business people I have spoken to expect laser quality for documents: the inkjet just doesn’t cut it. In addition, a small business can afford laser colour copiers printing double sided which list for less than $500.
I can’t believe with Lexmark’s decision.
Shocking information. Thanks for sharing.
How sad for those who like Lexmark.
Yes, Printers are important.

Summary: iPad 2 to lead slew of Apple releases on March 11
Products mentioned in this article
(7 items)
Apple unveiled a new iPad on Wednesday—a model that’s thinner and lighter than its predecessor and features front- and rear-facing cameras. The iPad 2 announcement highlighted an Apple press event packed with product news, including an iOS preview and iPad versions of Apple’s iMovie and GarageBand applications.
But the iPad 2 was the star of the show. The new models, which arrive on March 11, come in the same capacities and have the same price tags as the original Wi-Fi and 3G-equipped tablets. But there are plenty of other differences, starting with the design. The iPad 2 is thinner and lighter than its predecessor, weighing 1.3 pounds and measuring 0.35 inches thick. There’s also a white iPad, a development sure to please anyone longing for Apple’s still missing-in-action white iPhone 4 model.
The updated iPad also runs on a new processor—a 1GHz dual-core Apple A5 chip—which should provide a boost over the 1GHz A4 processor that powered the original iPad. The new processor offers a similar low-power consumption rating as the A4.
The iPad 2 features two built-in cameras, for use with FaceTime video chat and other apps. The front camera can record VGA-resolution (640-by-480) video at 30 frames per second with audio and take still photos at 640-by-480. The back camera can record HD video at 720p at 30 frames per second with audio. When in still camera mode, the back camera has a 5X digital zoom.
Get more information on the iPad 2
When it ships, the iPad 2 will run on Apple’s iOS 4.3 mobile operating system. Apple previewed the updated OS on Wednesday, showcasing improved Safari performance, wireless media streaming in the form of iTunes home sharing, AirPlay enhancements, a Personal Hotspot option for all iPhone 4 models, and personal settings options for the iPad’s side-switch.
Get more information on Apple’s iOS 4.3 preview
iOS 4.3 won’t be the only software update to greet the iPad 2 on March 11. Apple announced that its mobile version of iMovie will undergo an update so that it’s optimized to work on Apple’s tablet. In addition, the mobile video editor will offer multitouch gestures, new themes and sound effects, a precision editor, and multitrack audio editing and recording.
iPad users will also have a version of GarageBand to call their own on March 11. The mobile version of the music creation program will let users play and record multiple instruments either by connecting them to the iPad, or through the use of a number of touch instruments, including keyboards and drums.
Get more information on iMovie and GarageBand for the iPad
The iPad 2 announcement Wednesday was not that much of a surprise—Apple’s invitation to the press-only event more or less confirmed that a new iPad would be the centerpiece of Wednesday’s press event. A surprising—and welcome—part of the event was the appearance of Apple CEO Steve Jobs, who has been on leave from his day-to-day duties at the company since January for medical reasons. Jobs handled much of the presentation duties Wednesday, including a rundown of sales figures for the iBookstore, the original iPad, and the iPhone.
Apple also showcased a pair of a iPad 2 accessories—the iPad Smart Cover and the Apple Digital AV Adapter. The Smart Cover works as a stand for typing and watching movies on the tablet. It also features a unique design that includes magnets that hold the cover in place on the iPad. The Apple Digital AV Adapter offers HDMI mirrored video output, allowing what you see on the iPad 2 screen can also be viewed on the big screen in 1080p. The AV Adapter will also work with the original iPad, the iPhone 4, and the fourth-generation iPod touch, providing video out for those iOS devices. (Mirroring is only supported on the iPad 2.)
Updated at 1:05 p.m. PT to include information on iPad compatibility for the Apple Digital AV Adapter.
Updated at 1:44 p.m. PT to correct information about the A5’s power consumption rating.
Updated at 2:12 p.m. PT to clarify Apple Digital AV Adapter support.

What ails Malayalam Cinema today?Author's Corner, Movies — By Sethumadhavan on November 17, 2011 1:20 pm
Note- this was an article originally written in mid 2009 but now re-edited/written keeping in mind the current ongoing strike in the Malayalam movie industry.
It’s a known fact that by & large Malayalam and Bengali films have gone on to stand out for the quality of movies getting made over the years. While Bengali cinema has seen masters like Satyajit Ray, Mrinal Sen, Ritwik Ghatak etc during the yesteryears and is now being represented by the likes of Gautam Ghosh, Rituparno Ghosh etc, Malayalam cinema too has had its maestro’s like Adoor Gopalakrishnan,Aravindan, Bharathan,Padmarajan,T.V.Chandran etc who have brought movies of a different perspective to the intelligent audience. The difference between the Malayalam & Bengali film industry lay in the fact that while mainstream cinema in Bengali in the last 2 decades especially had degenerated into typical potboilers which were not for the intelligent audience, in case of Malayalam cinema by & large the mainstream cinema was also of high standard. Movies made by stalwarts like Sathyan Anthikkad,Sibi Malayil,Fazil, Priyadarshan etc went on to revolutionize the 80’s and the 90’s.
This brings us to Malayalam cinema of the present. Why do we constantly hear complaints about the quality of movies going down? Why do people long for the kind of movies of the 80’s and 90’s even today? Is the situation out of control? Let’s take a lot at the situation and some of the factors going against Malayalam Cinema presently.
Genuine shortage of good films
In the recent past what were some of the most successful films? In 2008 there was Twenty: 20, a commercial khichdi which went on to break all records of the Malayalam film industry. In 2009 for a major part of the year it was 2 Harihar Nagar which was the most successful (till Pazhassi Raja thankfully overtook it). And in 2010 we has Pokkiri Raja, a multi-starrer which played to galleries. Of course we have had some good films as well of late like a Pranchiyettan and The Saint, Paleri Manikyam, Adaminte Makan Abu etc but more often than not these films stand out as exceptions. Veteran filmmakers like Fazil, Sibi Malayil etc struggling with their recent films like Moss & Cat and Living Together ( both by Fazil ) or Apoorvaragam and Violin ( both by Sibi Malayil ) are nowhere close to some of their glorious films made earlier. Priyadarshan hasn’t been making Malayalam films of late (after a long back he has now returned with Oru Marubhumi Kadha which is due for release shortly), Joshiy has been happy making multi-starrers like Twenty: 20, Robinhood, Christian Brothers etc which maybe making money but certainly not trendsetting.
Lack of audience for middle of the road cinema
It’s a shame that in Kerala today a genuinely good film like Jayaraj’s Gulmohar, which saw writer-director Ranjith making an excellent debut as an actor or M.G.Sasi’s Adayalangal struggles to get a theatrical release. And even for some good movies done by Mohanlal like Akashagopuram or a Pakalnakshtrangal, the audience preferred to stay away, preferring to instead watch him in a Twenty: 20 or a Kurukshetra. Salim Ahamed’s Adaminte Makan Abu swept the National Awards and is doing very well in the festival circuit right now but it could hardly survive a week at the theatres. Even a star like Prithviraj finds it easy to reach out to his audience with an Anwar or a Thriller but struggles to bring out a movie like Veettilekulla Vazhi which again was noticed in the festival circuit. I can just go on & on about such cases, because there are just so many of them.
Influence of Hindi,Tamil & Telugu Cinema
While one always knew that Malayalam cinema stood for realistic portrayals and also appreciated it, both the filmmakers and the audience were satisfied that they were able to reach out to the expectations of each other. The audience in Kerala has always been intelligent and preferred to see realism in Malayalam movies and left the larger than life and the glossy stuff to Hindi & Tamil cinema. So much so that in recent times SRK and Vijay have become very big stars in Kerala also on account of their popularity among the youth. This was still all right but seeing the ever increasing popularity of Hindi & Tamil movies in the state, some of the film makers decided to go in for more gloss in their own movies. Thus bringing in typical mass dance numbers and other symbols, more representative of a Hindi or a Tamil movie. In the bargain the element of realism so much an essential part of Malayalam cinema started getting lost. A film like Pudhiya Mugam or Pokkiri Raja are clear cut examples for this kind of a trend. If you change the actors you might just not even notice that these are actually Malayalam films.
Another problem has been that of the Malayalam dubbed versions of Telugu movies flooding the theatres in Kerala. While Hindi & Tamil movies have always found patronage in Kerala, they are finding more acceptance nowadays due to the fall in standards in Malayalam cinema. So a film like Ra.One gets a wide spread release in Kerala also as everywhere. But it is the wide release of the Telugu dubbed movies which is proving to be a big nuisance. What started as just an experiment is now becoming a big hassle for the industry. Allu Arjun is now nearly as big as Vijay or some of the Malayalam stars themselves as most of his films have been doing well in Kerala. So much so that his last film Badrinath ( dubbed version ) had a simultaneous release along with the Telugu version in A.P and other markets. For the producers and the distributors, this is a cheap option- the cost of dubbing is not high & the movies get widely released for a 1-2 week run. This sometimes even acts as a stumbling block for the release of a small Malayalam movie.
Shortage of Theatres
The multiplex culture is yet to invade Kerala (as of now there are just 2 multiplexes in Kerala, both in Cochin with a few more planned ahead) and so it’s still the traditional single screens and the cineplexes which rule the roost. Over the last few years a lot of theatres have given away to shopping complexes and other constructions due to either business or other reasons. A huge city like Cochin- Ernakulam does not today have more than 10 -12 direct release theatres (Ernakulam+Fort Cochin+Tripunithira area) and that makes the availability of screens also a major problem especially if it’s a small movie getting released. So when multiple releases happen always the smaller films tend to suffer the maximum.
Stars holding Sway
Nearly 3 decades old in the industry and the 2 M’s Mammootty and Mohanlal still rule the roost. They continue to do 5-6 movies a year and try to balance the middle of the road cinema with the commercial movies. Dileep and Jayaram are hanging in there, while the others including Suresh Gopi hardly seem to hit the bulls eye these days. Among the younger stars it’s only Prithviraj and to an extent Jayasurya and Asif Ali who seem to have some kind of connect with the audiences. When it comes to the heroines the problem is even different. Most of the Malayalam heroines like Nayantara, Bhavana, Amala Paul, Mamta Mohan Das etc are more prominent in the other South Indian languages. Navya Nair and Gopika have now retired after their wedding (while Kavya Madhavan is now back to the field after a failed wedding). So a new bunch of heroines are required to bring in the freshness. People like Ann Augustine, Rima Kallingal, Archana Kavi, Remya Nambeesan etc certainly seem to hold promise and only time will tell us if they manage to leave a lasting impression.
Silver Lining in the cloud?
So is the situation completely out of control? Are all the factors mentioned above too much to handle? No, I still feel that the situation can be brought under control.
Given below are some ways to overcome the same and bring back the earlier days of the Malayalam Film Industry-
1. Prominent film makers like Sathyan Anthikkad, Sibi Malayil, Joshy, Fazil etc to make movies on the lines of what they’ve worked in the past but keeping today’s generation also in mind ( or else gracefully retire ).
2. More emphasis on script to be given. People like Ranjith, Blessy,Lohitadas, Sreenivasan,T.A.Razzak etc to lead the way. Bring out more works of literary giants like M.T.Vasudevan Nair.
3. Encourage work of talented directors like Blessy, Shyama Prasad, Lohithadas, Ranjith etc who can bridge the divide between mainstream & middle of the road cinema.
4. Continue to make use of digital cinema- Qube & UFO to help in releasing the smaller movies
5. Curtail the release of dubbed releases by fixing a maximum number of movies allowed per year.
6. Catch them young- the Kerala Government can through their own Film Society (Kairali) organize mini festivals in college campuses and enable the students to get exposed to critically acclaimed Malayalam movies.
7. The bodies like MACTA (Malayalam Cine Techinicians Association Federation), AMMA (Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes) and the Producers Council should come forward to genuinely encourage and make good cinema. Why cannot there be budgets set aside for making some small intelligent movies patronized by these bodies itself?
All said and done all is not over and I am sure that important stake holders should be working on some of these points listed above and maybe some other points not listed here. As far as the near future is concerned then I’m hoping at least that we continue to get films like a Salt N’Pepper, Traffic, City of God etc which stood out in 2011 and managed to at least stay afloat among the general line-up of films which keep releasing week after week.
Also it’s a humble request to all the concerned associations in the industry (representing, producers, exhibitors, distributors, artistes etc ) to let go of their ego and call of the ongoing strike at the earliest. At the time of posting this there have been no new Malayalam release for the last 3 weeks
Excellent article Sethu….After reading it i feel that even the audience is as much a bigger culprit for the current state of affairs along with film makers.
When you have some brilliant piece of art coming out and thats proves a mediocre success, then by and forth it will always remain a rarity.
A huge transition is required for malayalam cinema and i hope it will surely happen in future.
Unfortunately for Malayalam industry, Mr Lohitadas is no more!

Rasedar Rajma (Curried Kidney Beans)
This recipe from the Fatfree Vegan Kitchen blog has been on my weekly "menu"/shopping list for months. It keeps falling off the bottom- I had the ingredients but hadn't cooked it, week in week out. Tonight I couldn't come up with any other idea- and decided to give it a try. WOW. This is a really delicious recipe! I am not even the world's biggest Indian food fan and I really like it and totally wish I had made more.
I served it with some "yogurt" on top- silken tofu blended with some salt, lemon juice and a dash of splenda. My 9 year old daughter who likes curries but is not a fan of tofu ate it happily, so I think it fooled her!As I usually do- in the case of the curry I did use the spices in the recipe- garam masala, fenugreek, coriander root, garlic, tumeric- but substituted caraway seeds for the ajwain seeds and used quite a lot more of all the spices than whatever quantities the recipe suggested. Maybe some of my spices are a bit stale as I think it would have been pretty bland otherwise. Oh- I used canned kidney beans (yay Aldi- feed a family of 5 for 4 bucks? Yes please) 4 cans. Next time I will probably make double as everyone loved it and I only have a tiny bit eft for lunch tomorrow!

Jim Bartlett's Blog
The Land of the Free and the Home of the Pre-Recorded
by Jim Bartlett

posted Jan 28 2013 11:15AM
Forgive me if I am unable to work up even a tiny bit of outrage over the news that Beyoncé lip-synched the National Anthem at President Obama's inauguration ceremony.
When Christina Aguilera famously messed up the anthem before the Packers' Super Bowl win two years ago, I was among those who joked about it, until my wife set me straight. She's performed the anthem in public (with the Sound of Madison chorus) and she says that "The Star-Spangled Banner" is very difficult to sing. "It has a very large range from low notes to high notes, and it has some jumps [from note to note] that are pretty unusual compared to what we're used to hearing." And if you don't agree with that, listen to Aretha Franklin, who says shad no problem with Beyonce's choice to lip-sync: "The weather down there was about 46 or 44 degrees, and for most singers that is just not good singing weather." Another consideration: the National Anthem at the inauguration is a very, very big deal. In a spot like that, nobody wants to risk mid-song microphone failure. It's embarrassing if Kelly Clarkson's microphone goes out during "My Country 'Tis of Thee," but if it happens during the anthem, it's a disaster of historic proporations.
It's not as though Beyoncé is the first person ever to do this. One of the most famous anthem performances of all time was Whitney Houston's before the Super Bowl just days after the Persian Gulf War began. For years, people close to Whitney insisted that she'd sung it live. Last year, however, her musical director finally confirmed that the performance was lip-synched. In a giant stadium, with a delay between the moment the words come out of your mouth and when they come echoing back to you over the PA system, it's easy to lose your place and give less than your best performance. When the whole country, or the whole world, is watching, that's not what you want. Such performances are recorded far more often than most people realize.
And if lip-synching was good enough for everybody who ever appeared on American Bandstand back in the day, it's good enough for anybody now. Beyoncé did what she felt she had to do on Inauguration Day, and I don't have a problem with it.

Where can you get social media traffic? Social media marketing has grown into a powerful vortex of backlinks and free traffic over the years. Years ago, it used to be about spamming article directories to get a backlink from anywhere possible but now days, we’ve come to find out that Google loves Web 2.0 properties. Social media websites can be included in these Web 2.0 properties as well which makes social media that much more powerful. There are plenty of social media outlets on the web and can generate a ton of traffic and link juice if you know how to use them effectively and correctly.
Social Media Traffic: Facebook
When Facebook was new; no one could have imagined that it would become one of the biggest websites to ever hit the internet. Everything seems to revolve around Facebook now days. People lose their jobs; lose their relationships, and business deals because of things that are discovered over this site. This site also is a huge opportunity for anyone trying to build or retain a client base. Facebook has a wide variety of tools available for free. If you want to spend some money to get people to your fan page, Facebook has Google like advertising on their own site. You can target just about any demographic you want.
Facebook allows you to make business pages, band pages, fan pages, regular people pages and anything else you can imagine using to promote your business or website. Once someone “likes” your page, all of their friends see it and I guarantee you if it picks their interest, they’re going to go check it out. Facebook is simply powerful.
Social Media Traffic: MySpace
MySpace might have a lot less attention than it used to have now days thanks to Facebook and overkill on ads thanks to Fox Broadcasting, but it’s still a powerful platform to promote a product or business on. Everyone remembers seeing the Tom classic MySpace picture and in turn started the famous in the mirror picture.
The fact is, there are still millions of people utilizing MySpace and browsing them couldn’t be any easier. You can target people to a very specific demographic which you can’t do on Facebook for free.
Social Media Traffic: YouTube
If you don’t know what YouTube, you’ve been living under a rock. YouTube allows people to upload just about anything as long as it doesn’t violate the terms. It takes a lot to violate YouTube’s terms of service though. Some of the things you can’t upload are:
1) Copyrighted material. You can’t upload someone else’s work and pass it off as your own. This also includes music and movies although some people do slip by the mods and cracks by uploading it anyways.
2) Adult content of any nature. It’ll be banned and your account will be banned without any warning.
YouTube allows people to show off their content through a video. If you’re trying to promote a brand new site or a product, you can create a video that either showcases the product or service you’re promoting and it might be one of those one hit wonders with millions of views..

I agree that social media is overpowering the internet, however some people do indeed need to learn not to share ‘everything’ on Facebook and social sites alike. We don’t need to know every little detail of someone else’s life
So true. Everything does seem to revolve around Facebook. Not sure that’s a good thing all the time.
Hey Sara, I agree I don’t think it’s a good idea to reveal everything on Facebook. But it seems that everyone is willing to share everything on there, they’re just not wanting to keep anything private anymore.
Samantha And Fabrizio : you both are right in your opinions but if someone wants to promote his/her website then sharing every single information is required to promote it.Also it depends on individuals whether to share their information or not,Facebook don’t force anyone to share the things one don’t want too.

Its a shame that Facebook has become a haven for people to write any old trash on. It’s a powerful marketing and traffic generation tool that is so often misused.
I totally agree with this article to be honest and based on my experience, using this 3 social media site are now famous nowadays, aside from that many people use this as a basis or source of income.
Thanks for the post Charles, as far as traffic from social media goes, I get a decent amount from Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. I’ve never really paid much attention to MySpace, I think I kind of assumed that everyone else was using Facebook and leaving MySpace and that was the thing to do. Having said that I’m sure I have a profile somewhere on there.
Hello Charles
nice Post
Facebook truly deserves the first place in the list . Proper social media marketing effort can bring tons of visitors to you web page . thanks for sharing this Bryan
It seems that you are forgetting the latest social innovation, that is Pinterest. We have seen unbelievable traffic surges from our pins on pinterest. The amazing thing is that Pinterest posts provide Do-follow links which no other social network can match with!!

Hi Charles, awesome tips bro. I only get traffic from Facebook. Now started getting little amount of traffic from twitter. Thanks for sharing this tips bro

Wow, I seriously double-checked on the the date of this post when I read “Myspace”. I would have expected Pinterest to be on here, not Myspace. I had a Myspace account then and all my friends were musicians mostly. I didn’t realize Myspace still has a lot of active members.

Accurate determination of calories burned can only be accomplished by individual physiological testing.
The next best thing is to use an ergometer. Beware, some bikes incorrectly claim to be ergometers but they do not measure power. Real ergometers measure how much power is put into pedaling the bike. This is needed for a reasonably accurate estimate of calories burned. For a more accurate calorie calculation, you would need to take into account the physical properties of the person using the bike. Many ergometers don't do this.
Measuring power is expensive. Adding this capability to a pedal exerciser would raise its cost by hundreds of dollars. Because of this, the calories burned estimates can be off by a factor of 10. The calorie numbers on the display are only close if the resistance is set to maximum. This is true for all pedal exercisers, including the MagneTrainer.
We have developed an Online Calorie Calculator that effectively turns the MagneTrainer into an ergometer. In addition, this program takes into account physical properties of the person using the bike.
Go to Online Calorie Calculator
If you prefer an automated solution, you may want to consider the MagneTrainer PC Interface.
The MagneTrainer PC interface connects your bike to a Windows computer and automatically logs your calories burned.
"I am immensely pleased with both the build quality and the resistance. This will provide good solid exercise when couch-bound. Great for those of us who don't like to go out in the cold and/or have small apartments."

Maine is receiving more than $4 million in the massive, $3 billion settlement with pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline. It's the largest health care fraud settlement in U.S. history.
Maine will receive a total of $4,402,994 in the settlement announced yesterday, according to a press release from Maine Attorney General William Schneider. Under the terms of the settlement, GlaxoSmithKline has agreed to pay $3 billion to resolve allegations of unlawful promotion of certain prescription drugs, failure to report certain safety data and false price reporting practices. Of that amount, $2 billion will go to various states and the federal government for damages and civil penalties to compensate Medicaid and other federal health care programs. GSK has agreed to plead guilty to federal criminal charges relating to drug labeling and U.S. Food and Drug Administration reporting and will pay a $1 billion criminal fine.
The state and federal governments alleged that GSK unlawfully marketed certain drugs for uses for which they were not approved; making false representations regarding the safety and efficacy of certain drugs; offering kickbacks to medical professionals; and underpaying rebates owed to government programs for various drugs paid for by Medicaid and other federally funded health care programs. The drugs involved include Paxil, Advair and Lamictal.

Jillian Dempsey for Avon Professional Eye Smokifier.
The Professional Eye Smokifier makes a dark smoky eye so easy to create. It’s much easier than a liquid or gel liner the smooth sponge tip is easy to handle and the softer look means no stressing over a perfect line. I tried the Very Black I love how dark it is and the little silver sparkles, definitely makes your eyes pop.

Great colour, looks beautiful on and it hasn't chipped in four days after lots of washing up without gloves! The brush is a dream to use making it easy to apply. It's my new favourite nail polish make, beats O.P.I hands down!

A friend gave me this because she was trying to break me out of my light pink/nude shades only rut. Although I am quite pale, this is a pretty, pale shade of grey that looks flattering against my skin. I topped it with a silvery glittery she gave me for sort of a disco ball look and it really looks nice. Essie polishes always have a good formula in my experience - smooth, no bubbles, dries fairly quickly and two or three coats (depending on your desired level of opaqueness) works great. Chinchilly is a great shade for those who love grays or don't know that they do yet!

After testing nearly every neutral shade on the Essie stand in Boots I eventually went for Chinchilly and am very happy with the decision. Outside of the fluorescent lighting in the store the colour was much greyer than I originally thought. Natural lighting brings out a slight lavender undertone which adds another element to the shade whist still remaining unobtrusive enough to suit any occasion. The polish includes the usual extra wide brush which I love but others can find more difficult to use especially on narrower nails. I found that 2 - 3 coats were needed for a real opaque coverage and with base and top coats the polish lasted for a good 4 days with minimal tip wear.

This polish rocks! I love it so much :) Perfect dark grey/taupe colour with a hint of purple and it just looks so awesome! Funnily I have swatched it on one nail a few times and decided against it, but when I did a full mani, I was wowed with how good it was and thrilled to get compliments on my nails.
Formula is pretty good, I'm not totally skilled at the art of DIY manicure but this went on pretty much perfectly, two easy coats and it lasted perfectly for 5 days with no chipping. I do use the computer a lot, so it was showing a bit of tipwear by then, but nothing that had me worried.
Very happy, will use this colour again and again!

Mike Margolies asks:
It doesn’t happen to every email, just some of them. It only happens with the emails that stem from my own email account. It is a pop account via GoDaddy. I have another pop email account that when those emails are deleted stay deleted. Apple says it is GoDaddy. GoDaddy says I should switch to IMAP. Ideas?

Apple imap issues – disappearing, not deleting, smtp server timeout, etc.
delete the email account and then recreate the same account with same password.????
GrrGrrrAugust 18, 2012
there is no harm in switching to IMAP.
Mike MargoliesAugust 19, 2012
That does not work. I said it was a pop email account. I don’t think there is a way to convert a pop account to a imap. I talked with both Apple and GODADDY. Go Daddy wants me to purchase a imap email account to go with my hosting plan. I don’t really want the $35 per year for email. I thought perhaps their would be a setting trick or work around.
POP accounts are horrendous, Godaddy even more so. Consider switching to a VPS like if your website is big enough that you can afford it (assuming you host a site here, and dont just use godaddy for emails; a VPS starts at $50/month).
You can then either setup directly as an imap account, or install google apps to let google handle the imap side of thing.August 21, 2012
Mike MargoliesAugust 21, 2012
Thanks for everyone’s help. It appears that the only real answer is switching to some other form of email. Not the solution I was looking for, but a solution none the less.
Here’s a solution-ish/workaround.
Overview:August 28, 2012
1. Create a GMail account (if you already haven’t got one).
2. Import your GoDaddy POP mail
2.1 via GMail Settings>Accounts and Import, then setup “Check mail from other accounts (using POP3):”
2.2 You can choose whether or not to permanently delete your POP copy after it gets imported into your GMail (via “Leave a copy of retrieved message on the server.” settings)
3. On your iPhone, associate your new GMail account (although IMAP is good, you can choose Google Sync to make better use of push. See:)
4. You can now choose to remove your POP account on your iPhone.
OK this makes sense to me. The only downside I see is not being able to send from my phone using my company email. I may leave the pop on and just delete everything as it comes in.August 28, 2012

I refer to Abdul Rahman Abdul Talib's letters entitled Apostasy punishment quite clear in texts in which he said that: 'It is not a penalty (death) imposed, rather it is a penalty accepted willingly by all converts as part of the teachings of Islam'.
I must say that it is fine and good if the prospective convert has been told of his fate, but have they been informed? Or do the religious officers conveniently keep mum on this issue during the orientation period only for it to be later discovered by the convert by then which it would be too late?
The religious officers assisting the conversion must say it loud and clear to the candidate that should he or she commit apostasy later on in life, the penalty is death.

Malibu Beach Recovery Diet™ January 2012 - Creamy Cauliflower Soup, Sea Bass Steamed in Rosemary Oil, Chocolate Mousse
First of all, my best wishes to all of you for a happy, healthy and peaceful New Year. May all your dreams come
true and all your resolutions last more than a month! For me, healthy eating is one of the hardest ones to maintain. Do not get me wrong, I love the farmer’s market and cooking a beautiful dish that makes your heart and your eyes sing, and your body show you endless grattitude. However, our world is surrounded with the worst possible combinations when it comes to food. Do not get me started on the power of an industry that cares more about dollars than it does about a nation’s health. It is mind boggling that we have just come to realize what has litterally been pushed down our throats by unscrupulous corporate giants. And those combinations are addictive and it takes serious willpower to walk away. We have all been made aware of the catastrophic impact of sugar in our lives, and if not, just imagine a four-year old on Halloween night and you pretty much have the picture of what sugar addiction can cause to your mind, body and blood sugar.
Another excess in our food stream is salt, sodium, soy sauce and all other combinations that greatly contribute to
the increase of major diseases as indicated by this article in the NY Times:
.”
Unfortunately, highly processed foods gain in sodium what they lose in potassium, therefore creating an inbalance that puts our health at a higher risk.
Once again, we are reminded that we are the keepers of our bodies and that, if the convenience of eating out, whether fast food or not, is something we have grown accustomed to, the trade-off might be a couple of years shaved off of our life expectancy, whether we like it or not.
The key for me to reclaiming control over our food is to use simple recipes that use fewer ingredients, being able to assess their level of processing and using herbs and spices instead of salt to bring out the true flavors of each ingredient. The following recipes for Creamy Cauliflower Soup, Sea Bass Steamed in Lettuce with Rosemary Oil, and Chocolate Mousse (an MBRC favorite) all have in common is the amazingly clean and strong flavor of each component.
When we compare the ease of preparation and intensity of flavor from a simple meal such as this one, we enter a whole different word of refinement and enjoyment where fast and heavily processed foods will no longer hold their appeal on us.

Enjoy!
