Caitlin Atkins manages to stir up trouble in Ramsay Street, hiding her inner
feelings under an air of tough bravado.
It is a role that Milburn, 17, says is foreign to her own personality.
"Caitlin is my worst nightmare," she said, grimacing at the thought of her
alter ego.
"I had to think about my worst nightmare and play it like that because I'm
usually pretty calm. I hold back a little bit and I don't think like Caitlin
does, but it was fun to cut loose and just go for it.
The new kid on the block moved into Erinsborough when her parents headed to
the Middle East for work. At first Caitlin was just visiting her adopted brother
Ben but, feeling lost in the world and rejected by her parents, she decided to
stay and fire up the neighbourhood.
Milburn scored the plum role six months after auditioning for the character
of Anne (played by Brooke Satchwell).
Determined to make acting her career from childhood, Milburn began studying
ballet at the age of five before moving on to music and testing her skills on
the saxophone, violin and piano.
Then it was back to dance, studying jazz and tap before making her debut in a
primary school musical.
Although Neighbours has complicated her life, Milburn is coping with an
adjusted study timetable, the hours on set and has plans to eventually take a
year off to travel the world. Then, if all goes according to plan, it's NIDA (or
an equivalent drama course) and a steady stream of roles.
It would be easy to become overwhelmed by such dreams but Milburn has her
mind set firmly in reality. If she didn't, her closest school friends would pull
her back to earth.
Neighbours screens weeknights on Ten Capital at 6.30pm.

A British think tank, the Royal United Services Institute has been interviewing Taliban leaders for several months in order to ascertain their thinking regarding peace. During intensive discussions with four prominent men in the Taliban leadership it became apparent they were as tired of the fighting as are Americans. "The Taliban would be open to negotiation of a ceasefire as part of a general settlement and also as a bridge between confidence-building measures and the core issue of distribution of political power in Afghanistan."
They also made clear no negotiation will take place as long as President Karzai has power. The central issues as to what extent will the Taliban allow such changes as women being able to receive education and serve in various professions. Will the Taliban accept there can not be a return to the brutality of the 1990s?

FireRainbow is an add-on for
Firefox and Firebug that adds themable syntax highlighting. It uses the
JavaScript library CodeMirror
to perform the highlighting, and has CSS themes. You can get the themes
firerainbow/themes on GitHub and paste them into the Colors tab within Firebug.
The performance is good, and it makes Firebug that little bit more
usable and customised.
Another useful Firebug plugin is

Platform 9 and 3/4 at King's Cross Station
The cast and crew are headed off to Edinburgh via King's Cross Station–the very station housing Platform 9 and 3/4! While in London, we got to visit Shakespeare's Globe Theater. While not the original theater in which Shakespeare's works were performed centuries ago, the restoration is still being used for productions of his many plays. Both cast and crew were invited to be part of an acting workshop, picking up new tricks to use as we carry the production to the Fringe Festival.

#1: Could use some haircolor advice :)
Back in February I went from dark red hair to platinum blonde. This was extremely damaging to my hair and made it break off at the crown. Everytime I bleach my hair it also takes away all of my curls! In March I colored my hair black and had to get it cut to blend with my crown. Now my hair is about maybe 2 inches on top and even shorter in the back and on the sides. Now, I have very little damaged hair left and where my new growth is coming in is sprinkled with a lot of grey... and I'm only 22! I wanna color it to maybe a red color but my natural hair color is very nearly black and I'm afraid it won't lift and I WILL NOT bleach it again. So, I was wondering if any of you curly girls have tried a high lift color and if it affected your curls in any way? Or any ideas on coloring my hair? I'm gonna treat my curls good now but I just don't like my hair color lol. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

how do i get the error logs?
i was about to type in the terminal when it stalled again and printed
Message from syslogd@(none) at mon apr 14 12:22:55 2008
(none) kernel: disabling IRQ 19
See the Boot Cheat Codes from the Backtrack wiki.
[FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New]hehe...
How do i do that?
Boot codes or Cheat codes are parameters you can add during boot to syslinux to alter the behavior of Backtrack. Boot codes must start with "bt" (e.g. bt nodhcp) at the boot prompt. Below you can find some of them.
(source- http://backtrack.offensive-security....dex.php/Cheats
also if you can get to a prompt type then cut and paste the output to
This may contain some error message info that may be of use.Code:#dmesg
Also have a look at the other code that I posted above about logs and error messages.
Take your time and you will get it.
To be successful here you should read all of the following.
If you are new to Back|Track
Back|Track Wiki
Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.
So I have a new MB and just tried the dual boot. I too experienced the stall. To be honest, I was too lazy to search for what exactly is causing it. I did notice on a quick grep to my messages log file that there was a note about running irqpoll as a boot code. So I put "irqpoll" in my lilo.conf file under append. It's not exactly a fix, but it does get rid of the mouse stall for now.

Doctor Marcela Warrick embarks on research for biotech Everjein in which she is to spend five years isolated in a hermitically sealed habitat in the Antarctic. The results could see Everjein profit from a government contract to establish the first human colony on Titan. The project includes specialists in agriculture, technology, engineering and medicine. Marcela, agriculturalist, meets Doctor Kian Barret whose only goal is to establish a successful, off world, human breeding program through implantation of surrogates with genetically chosen embryos.
Meanwhile on mainland Australia, Detective Zoe Moore finds herself investigating a series of unexplained fatalities in which the link between the victims is amniotic fluid in their mouths and inexplicable traces of an experimental drug in their toxicology, connecting them directly to Barret's research.
As the body account increases Zoe and her team find themselves investigating events that defy scientific explanation and that may well threaten the survival of the human species.

Toronto-based Tour d'Afrique bills itself as an adventure company. But this was not the sort of adventure its clients had in mind.
About 30 foreigners from 10 different countries arrived in Khorog, Tajikistan, last Monday for a rest day after crossing the border from Kyrgyzstan. They were two months into a trek by bike from Shanghai to Istanbul.
Barely 24 hours later, that rest was shattered by gunshots at 4 a.m., and the cyclists found themselves trapped for three days in the restive border town because of fighting between rebels and government forces.
"We were caught on the edge of a conflict and there was no way out," said Ross Thomson of Victoria, B.C. "We couldn't go out of the compound. There was just a stone wall between us and them."
Confusion reigned: The riders were staying at two different hotels and found themselves cut off from their tour guides, who were sleeping outside town and found themselves barricaded out.
Back in Canada, the tour's staff learned via e-mail that their clients and employees were effectively being held hostage. But that was about all they could find out.
"Our emphasis from the beginning was to keep everyone calm and make sure people didn't do anything stupid," said owner Henry Gold.
Easier said than done: Antsy and anxious in an information vacuum, some cyclists proposed crossing the border into Afghanistan. During one ceasefire, several people made a mad dash for another hotel on the outskirts of town, hoping they'd be safer there.
Mr. Thomson's biggest concern, he said, was for his family back in Canada. "I couldn't reach them, and I didn't know what they were hearing."
After three days, the cyclists were evacuated by helicopter and diplomatic vehicles to the capital Dushanbe. But until then, "there was nothing we could have done," Mr. Gold said. "We didn't have anything to suggest that our people were in danger or threatened or a target, so I was not particularly nervous. … Anything can happen. You deal with it."
What does concern him is the cost of those extra days, the frantic use of satellite phones and emergency measures. If the extra cost turns out to be "exorbitant," Mr. Gold said, they may try to recoup some of it.
"It all sounds spectacular, but I never felt scared or in imminent danger," Mr. Thomson said in the lobby of his Dushanbe hotel Saturday.
Getting caught in a Tajik firefight, he admits, was not on his bucket list.
"But now I can tick it off," he said. "And I don't need to do it again."Report Typo/Error

Oral ulcers ?
I, the human, have nasty oral ulcers. Boring. More to the point is that doctors want me to get rid of my cats. Eating anything makes me want to
Asked by
on Jan 27th 2012
in The Adoption Process
- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Don't listen to the doctors! Any time someone goes to the doctors with an ailment they will tell you to 1) quit smoking if you smoke; 2) lose weight if you are overweight; and 3) get rid of your pets (especially cats) if you have any. I know because I am a nurse. Don't you dare get rid of your cats. You need to find out why you are getting nasty oral ulcers. Getting rid of your pets won't tell you why you get the ulcers, and won't get rid of the ulcers. Stupid doctors (with master's degrees)! Find another doctor and not some quack job who doesn't want to properly diagnose you and treat you accordingly. Best of luck.
Member 185886 answered on 1/28/12. Helpful? / 1
Unless you're allergic to the cats and have been full-on licking them or somehow swapping saliva I don't see how a doctor could blame them for your mouth ulcers unless they feel the breeding and showing of the cats is stressing you out and making things worse. Taking a break from competitive "cat fancy" while you try to treat the ulcers might be beneficial, but purging yourself of all your beloved companion animals would give you all sorts of stress and deprive you of the relaxing and healing power of a cuddling, purring cat.
The other poster is right- you should be getting treated by a doctor who is looking into physical causes- diet, toothpaste, possible infections; not just preaching a vague anti-pet theory without offering any real treatment options or even home remedies to speed the healing.

Wedding Styles in Thailand Buddhist wedding ceremony
Hot Features
A traditional Thai wedding ceremony can be conducted in the presence of monk in the couple's home. If monks are involved it is usually an odd number, three, five, seven or a maximum of nine, and always facing west. Led by the senior monk, the ceremony begins with prayers chanted in Pali Sanskrit while the couple kneels with their hands in the traditional wai position. The senior monk then drapes a thread around the heads of the couple to symbolize their commitment to one another, and splashes them with holy water. Small offerings are presented to the monks, followed by more chanting. Friends and family can then tie a thread around this wrist of the bride and groom and give an envelope containing money for the start of their life together. The ceremony usually lasts for 30 minutes. After the wedding, in order to ensure that the ceremony leads to a lifetime of love the couple must visit the local temple and make a donation. In return monks will perform a wedding blessing ceremony.
Christian wedding ceremony
Many hotels and resorts in Thailand offer a Christian wedding service. Arranging legally recognized marriages in Thailand can be an involved process but most hotels can help streamlined the process. However, you will need to spend one night in Bangkok in order to register the marriage. Often a hotel will supply a representative to meet you at the Thai embassy and guide you through the relevant forms. Documents are then sent to the hotel for your ceremony. Thai marriage certificates will also be translated and sent to your residential address. There will be a fee, usually around 20,000 baht, and additional embassy fees.
A couple must also provide proof that they are both single and free to marry. This is usually in the form of an affidavit notarised by your respective Embassy in Bangkok. If you are a westerner marrying a Thai, some embassies may require a letter from the police in your country stating that you are of good character. If you are divorced you will need the original certificates. All documents must be translated to Thai and attested by the Thailand Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Indian wedding ceremony
Thailand has a sizeable Indian community and become renowned for fabulous traditional Indian weddings, so much so that Indian couples now come from all over the world to get married here. Attracted by the country's beautiful islands and beaches, a variety of weddings venues, value for money, and gracious Thai hospitality, popular destinations include Bangkok, Phuket and Hua Hin. Indian wedding arrangers in Thailand can provide Thailand can provide you with everything required for a tradition wedding, mandap, mehendi wali, flower decorations, Indian food, and an Indian DJ.
One of the most renowned hotels in Bangkok for hosting Indian weddings is the Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit. The majestic hotel's Grande Ballroom is a fabulous venue for the Indian wedding party of your dreams. With the help of Indian professional wedding planners and designers, the room can be decorated to reflect your personal style, traditions or culture. Couples can choose graceful drapes, elegant floral arrangements or the warm glow of candle light to add elegance and romance to the opulent setting.

F. Steps to Reset oil service Check Control:
You can reset the Check Control oil service light with diagnostic software (e.g. CarSoft) or manually using the following steps.
Perform the following steps quickly. A few seconds of inactivity between button pressing and the car will exit the Check Control reset mode. It may take some practice before you get the hang of it.
There are two buttons involved and two types of pressing. Press means press and release the button. Hold means press and hold the button down until the display changes to the desired mode.
Pictures below show mileage in kilometers, US cars will be in miles.
Insert the remote key fob into the ignition lock
Press the {Start/Stop Engine} button to put the car into ignition on mode. Look for all the warning lights to come on in the instrument cluster; it may take more than one press. (for manual transmissions make sure you are not depressing the clutch, for auto transmissions keep your foot off the brake)
On the turn signal stalk, press the CHECK button repeatedly until you see the date displayed in the upper middle Check Control screen located between the speedometer and tachometer.
If you end up waiting too long and fall out of Check Control reset mode, start over at step 3.
Within 5 seconds of switching to the date in Step 3, hold the trip odometer reset button for approximately 5 seconds. An exclamation mark inside a triangle symbol will display followed by one of the 7 Check Control symbols (Check Control symbol varies).
You have now entered the Check Control reset mode.
If you see very small German text in the upper Check Control screen you held the reset button too long in Step 4 after the triangle symbol was displayed. Remove the key fob and start over at Step 1. Release the reset button immediately after seeing the first Check Control symbol that follows the triangle symbol.
As soon as you see one of the 7 Check Control symbols, release the reset button and re-press it quickly multiple times to step through the various systems that can be reset. If the Check Control symbol has a bright red background then service is past due. Systems available for resetting are as follows:
In this case you want to stop cycling when you see an oil can symbol.
Once you have landed on the oil can symbol, release the reset button and hold it for ~5 seconds until the text RESET? appears just below the oil can.
Release the reset button and hold it for another ~5 seconds. The red background will disappear and the remaining distance (or date) until next service will reset.
Congratulations you are FINISHED. Clean up and go grab another beer.

ackerman principle?
Who's this ackerman guy and what does he have to do with the way my car steers? I saw a this mentioned shortly in one of my Rod & Custom mags. Now that I know this is something to look out for I'll do a little research on it. I'll be scratch building a lot of my chassis & suspension. If I had not stumbled across this ackerman thing; I'm sure I would have made this mistake. What other rules of geometry & stuff do I need to be looking for?
Get you a Chevy High Performance manual. That will discuss alot of chassis theory in detail, at least the old one did as I haven't seen the newer one. The put ackerman angle in very basic terms picture this. when you turn a corner your wheels follow an arc. These arcs aren't the same radius. The inside wheel turns in much further onmost applications than the outside wheel.
In racing applications(drag) this wouldn't be of much concern to have as you are trying to reduce drag as much as possible. In oval racing(nascar) they try to reduce it as well on big tracks to reduce the drag but on places like Bristol they we put more into the car to reduce the amount of wheel input needed to turn the car. Oval racing too much wheel input will unload the left rear and around you go. It is just one of the many small adjustments they make to dial the car. Decreasing this angle slows the transfer of weight as well. On a street car you just won't notice much change and I would stick with a standard set up that comes with many of the kits on the market. What type of front end are you thinking of going with?
I'll be using a straight axle with transverse spring hung suicide style in front of grill shell.
Sounds cool to me. Hard to get too hig tech with stering of that age of course. What I tell guys that are doing projects such as yours is if they really want to do something to helps the handle of the car is lower the VCG( vertical center of gravity). So is a good way to improve the handle of the car without changing the entire look of the car. good start in doing this issimply lowering bolt on weight. Engine and trans. lowered as much as 1/2" will be very noticeable in older cars. Also another thing is bring weight in the the center of the car. Think of a lever and what that does to weight on the very end and the right next to the pivot point. Instead of trying to change the existing geometry of your set-up you will find these things will add to the handle of the car and be far less headache. Good luck to you, Ryan

Majors & Minors
- BA in Sustainable Agriculture & Food Production
- Catalog Program Description
The way humans produce food can intensify problems like global warming, water scarcity and energy shortages. Farming methods can also become part of the solution for a more habitable world. Green Mountain College's Sustainable Agriculture & Food Production program shows students how to take part in the current food revolution that is transforming farming and how we view food.
In the program, agriculture and food systems are presented through the lenses of history, anthropology, the natural sciences, philosophy, business, economics, and art. The College's 22-acre Cerridwen Farm serves as an agricultural laboratory right on campus. And the farmhouse provides office and classroom space for the Farm & Food Project and other regional organizations.

Laminate Flooring Install
I am going to be installing Laminate wood florring in a house and have a question. The flooring will cover the whole first floor (except the entry hall and bathroom). Should I cut the floor and add a threshold for the bedrooms or just one straing shot wall-to-wall, room-to-room. I know I need to leave a gap, but I have never installed Laminate flooring for the WHOLE House before!
How long is the run and how good is the flooring?
Check the flooring documentation it should give recommended distances between expantion joints.
I think you will find thresholds should be used in all doorways.
I agree. thresholds allow rooms to move seperately.
Well....The flooring is Not what I would have selected (i.e. she bought the cheapest). The Total Length run is about 40 Ft and width run is 29 ft. See attached pic (Brown represents where the flooring goes. Each square represents 1 sqft).
transition every doorway.

Tech Review: Fooducate App
Curious about GMOs or other terms on a box at the grocery store? The goal of the app Fooducate is to allow the user to quickly reference and compare foods. You can search with a barcode scan or search field and find out information about food you buy at the store. The app will also give you suggestions of alternatives that may have a healthier composition, lower sugar, or fewer GMO ingredients.
Fooducate invites you to actively review the foods you find with a simple like or dislike and explain why. This is a somewhat useful feature found on the product page. There's also a live feed of activity when you log into the app that is educational and more than a little entertaining. It's easy to guess from both the items and reviews which products are reviewed by a healthy mom, and which are being purchased and reviewed by someone on the way home from the pub after a few too many.
LEFT: Barcode scan screenshot; RIGHT: Add a new product screenshot
In the true sprit of crowdsourcing, there's another upside of the social function. If the item you've just scanned is not in the Fooducate directory, you can take three pictures of it (product front, nutrition label, and list of ingredients) and submit the product to the database. This can feel a bit like finding a new animal out in the wild, and you also get the satisfaction of contributing to the community.
With its own points system for dieters, a large database of foods, and a food logging option on the iPhone version (coming soon to Android) the Fooducate app is a good option for those looking to be more informed of where their food comes from. While I don't agree entirely with their scoring criteria when it concerns macronutrients or ingredients (whole grains, for instance), I'm not judging based on that, as food is a personal choice. I also liked the ease of the bar scanner and the speed that the app booted up. If you're looking to self-educate a bit, try Fooducate out and see if it helps you "eat a bit better."
The Fooducate app is available for free at Fooducate.com.

Sunday Liquor Soon May Be Accepted in Grandville
In three weeks, the Grandville City Council will vote on the idea of allowing Sunday liquor sales.
Restaurant owners insist they are losing business to neighboring cities that do allow the sales.
Brann's Steakhouse owner Tommy Brann said: "It's 2014."
WOOD TV quotes one resident who said the loss of business costs every resident.
The City Council is divided, though, and if the vote fails supporters might have to gather petition signatures to get it on the ballot.

Your question is not clear to me. What is it that your actually asking? If it's "easy" to sell used custom leather? Is that meant to ask if there's any merit to the idea that custom leather has a long turn-over on the used market due to the relatively short wait for a new MTAC, Crossbreed, etc?
If that is in fact your question, I would disagree. The buyer of Milt Sparks leather generally has a discerning taste that wouldn't incline him or her to purchase holster wear that features kydex. Not only that, but unless a Sparks holster is priced at a point which is higher than their nominal cost from the manufacturer, which seems to be commonplace lately, they usually sell fairly quickly on the used market because of the six month or longer lead time required for a new Sparks product order and their high quality.
Just my two cents. YMMV.

Recently I have been in a few different bookstores with display signs proclaiming, "If you loved The Hunger Games, try this!" Beneath which are stacks of Koushun Takami's novel Battle Royale.
A Japanese novel first translated into English about ten years ago, then retranslated in 2009, Battle Royale is something of a cult novel. I don't know if it will use The Hunger Games to piggyback into the mainstream, but it's already well-known enough that there are plenty of blog and forum posts claiming that Suzanne Collins ripped it off.
While that's a debate I don't really care to explore, the similarities between the books are striking. Battle Royale posits a totalitarian Republic of Greater East Asia, whose government annually kidnaps a class of middle schoolers, puts them in an arena with an uneven distribution of supplies and weapons, and forces the children to kill each other until there is only one left alive.
There are significant differences, as well. Unlike the Hunger Games of Collins' books, the battle here is done in secret, with only government agents watching. Battle Royale is told in a third-person narrative voice, and it manages to invest each of its forty characters with at least the amount of life needed to make their deaths meaningful. It is an extremely violent novel—it makes the violence in The Hunger Games look somewhat tame—but it strikes me that if violence ever has a purpose in fiction, it certainly does here. The violence is not glorified, it is simply shown, as if the author is saying, "This is what we mean when we talk flippantly about war, murder, etc." At the same time, the violence is used to show the depravity with which human beings—even children—will behave, if given permission. Like its literary ancestor Lord of the Flies, this novel could be read as an essay on original sin.
Like Lord of the Flies and The Hunger Games too, Battle Royale could be read as an indictment. I don't know enough about Japanese culture or recent history to pick up on any subtle political agendas that might be there, but Takami's and Collins's books are both indictments of the complacency necessary to create a culture in which children are regularly murdered and nothing is done to stop it. Both books seems to me to ask the question, How close is this to happening? And to answer, closer than you think.
Is Battle Royale worth reading? I am loath to recommend a book based on its last line, but the last line of Battle Royale is one of the most striking I have ever read. It is this ending that lets the book avoid the accusation of voyeurism and acts in a similar way to the psychologist who says, "Every person in a dream is you." Battle Royale is an indictment of sin, on a societal level and a personal level. As such, it is a book I think Christians would do well to read and carefully consider.

The skin above my knees was wrinkled and sun damaged so I checked into Exilis. I was told that they had great success on legs and arms so I went for it. It got very hot where I had to stop during treatment. The practitioner said that it was set to the right temperature and would not burn fat when I asked during treatment. I was concerned because it was extremely hot.
One week after and before my second treatment I took another picture because it looked like I had cellulite or lumps on the front of my thighs. I again brought up my concerns and was again told it would not burn the fat because it was set for tightening only.
Well, 4 treatments later and 4 sets of pictures and you can clearly see that my legs are a mess and that it did indeed burn fat and cause sagging. Now what? I am used to wearing dresses and shorts and can't. This is very embarrassing and I don't know how to fix it. I pray it is no irreparable Any suggestions?


text: What a week for the advertising industry in NY! I just returned from ad:tech NY and the conversation about audience targeting was definitely center stage. I participated on a panel entitled "Rise of the Audience Marketplace" that was moderated by Jeff Flemings, Senior VP and Global Head of Social at VivaKi. Joining me on stage were: Heather Hopkins, SVP and General Manager of MTV Tribes; Josh Jacobs, Senior VP of Brand Advertising Products & Marketing at Glam; Larry Gelfand, SVP of Media Sales at the NHL; and Quentin George, Chief Digital Officer of IPG's Mediabrands. I walked away from that event thinking more so than ever we have near perfect product-market alignment, the singular key for any successful start-up. We are committed to enabling a new form of digital media buying where brands and agencies are evolving how they approach a campaign buy. The five years of development we put into our technology platform have paid off as we start to serve as the decision engine for agencies and advertisers that want to evolve how they are finding and targeting key audiences with their digital buys. It was great to hear panelists talking about some of the successes that this evolved targeting practice is delivering: positive campaign performance metrics, the changing behaviors of media buyers who have access to impression-level data, and predictions on how this data is going to reshape the digital advertising industry. Perhaps Quentin George said it best: This kind of targeting is "addictive." To us, when you have the ability to define audiences at the individual or impression level, marketing becomes more effective and efficient. I'm so glad the conversations are evolving among agencies, advertiser and publishers: 2010 will be a year of strong evolution in the media ecosystem. Bill

About Me
Services offered: graphic design, layout for CD Packaging, DVD, concept art, published materials.
Dreamdistort is, quite simply, imagination sneaking into the back door of reality. Pure instinct and a chaotic inspiration cause Anthony to ignore the mundane ideas of concept and specificity of design, and create work with no ties to suggestion or persuasion. He ignores the norm and the expected. A slight tweaking of perceptions and endless brainstorming are the tools at work within the images he produces; worlds and visions non-existent in our limited experience until they are allowed to flee from his mind. Using mediums ranging from fixed objects and illustrations to digital and traditional film photographic processes, encompassing nearly ten years experience, he feels an urge to alter in order to create. Never leaving an image-no matter how seemingly perfect-untouched by his hand. Forms are brought to life; human bodies expose themselves for what they are and are not. The life within the posture and mass tweaked to perfection. Infinite possibilities and realities exist in the images. The world is imported and altered by Anthony and re-placed open for all to see, re-composed and layered with new and old meaning. Manipulated. The image, no matter how improbable, is the new reality.
Since 2001, his works have been featured in various galleries, auctions, as well as websites, cd artwork, dvd packaging, movie/film production and props, fashion shows, and magazines articles. His individual participations have also included solo and group exhibitions, speaking to design classes and students, charity fundraisers, and club openings.
A professional graphic designer by trade, his works include interface development, courseware graphic support, audio engineering and DVD authoring.

During the recent Winter Warm-Up, I was able to sit in on the interview sessions of five of the six vying for spots in the everyday lineup. The common theme is that Edmonds will be missed.
Brian Barton was recently acquired from the Cleveland Indians during the Rule 5 Draft. Barton went undrafted out of the University of Miami because teams thought he was not serious about baseball and he wanted to purse a job in the field in which he is close to earning his degree, aerospace engineering. In 354 career Minor League games, Barton hit .316/.416/.473. This past season, Barton batted .305/.402/.420 with 10 home runs and 66 RBIs during stops at Double-A Akron and Triple-A Buffalo.
Skip Schumaker split time between St. Louis and Triple-A Memphis in 2007. In 59 games at Memphis, Schumaker hit .306/.382/.466 with 37 strikeouts compared to 27 walks. In 88 games for the Cardinals, the 27-year-old batted .333/.358/.458 while striking out only 20 times in 232 at bats.
In the second audio file, Skip discusses his goals for Spring Training.
Last off-season, Ryan Ludwick was picked up by the Cardinals as a Minor League free agent. He had a smoking start at Triple-A Memphis, batting .340/.380/.642 with eight home runs and 36 RBIs in only 29 games. The senior statesman of this group, Ludwick overcame a slow start in the majors to finish with a line of .267/.339/.479 with 14 home runs and 52 RBIs. The 29-year-old goes to spring camp as the primary right-handed outfield bat.
Ludwick next discusses his expectations for the upcoming year and holding babies.
What hasn't been said about Colby Rasmus? The Cardinals' top prospect and one of the top prospects in all of baseball goes to Spring Training with a shot at making the big league club. Playing as a 20-year-old for most of the season, he led all of Double A in home runs and extra base hits. The heir apparent to Jim Edmonds in center, Rasmus admits the Edmonds trade surprised him.
Chris Duncan did not match his home run total from 2006 but he was hampered by a sports hernia injury down the stretch. The 26-year-old now owns 44 career big league home runs and seems to be getting a little more comfortable in left field. With the loss of Edmonds and Rolen, Duncan will be counted on even more in 2008 to bring power to the middle of the Cardinal lineup.
In the next audio file, Duncan discusses his place in the lineup as well as Colby Rasmus.
The last man on this list is Rick Ankiel. The 28-year-old put on an awesome power display at Memphis during 2007. Ankiel hit 32 home runs in 389 at bats for the Redbirds. The former pitcher made his return to the big leagues and homered in his first game back. For the big league club, Ankiel hit 11 home runs in 172 at bats playing primarily right field. For 2008, he has a chance to be the everyday starting centerfielder.

text: Edda Ann "Dolly" Chianfoni MANCHESTER - Edda Ann "Dolly" Chianfoni said goodbye, on her journey to the other side, early Tuesday morning, Sept. 24, 2013, surrounded by her family and friends. At Dolly's request, over 75 family and friends attended a celebration of her life at her home in Manchester on August 31, featuring her favorite food and music. She and her guests spent the day reminiscing and enjoying each others' laughter and love. The last surviving daughter of Salvatore and Cesira Cortopassi, Dolly grew up in Tri Mountain, Mich., along with her siblings, Lena, Norma and John. In her youth, Dolly was an avid swimmer and ice-skater. She moved with her family to Chicago and later worked as a secretary for Cook Electric. In Chicago, she met and married August Chianfoni, a railroad engineer. The couple enjoyed music, dancing, sewing, cooking, baking and parenting their two children, Sandra Lee and John Paul. In 1955, the family relocated to Manchester, where they built their home and lived on Merrick Avenue. Dolly worked as a graphic artist for C. H. Stewart in Newark until 1972 when she retired to care for her mother. Surviving the loss of her parents, husband Augie in 2009 and son John Paul in 2010, Dolly spent her remaining years enjoying cooking, shopping and gardening. She spent time with friends and nearby grandchildren and great-grandchildren in Shortsville, as well as numerous holidays, summers and excursions with her daughter and family in Berkshires, Mass. Dolly was also an animal lover and cared for a family of feral cats. Dolly is survived by her daughter, Sandra; daughter-in-law, Laura Catullo and children, Lisa, Tiffany and Kameron; granddaughter, Corrine Pollot and husband, Brian, and great-grandchildren, Jordyn and Mason; granddaughter, Jamie Chianfoni; grandson, Danny Chianfoni and wife, Jackie and newborn great-grandson, Dominic; granddaughter, Catherine Chianfoni; 20 nieces and nephews; and a tight knit community of friends, all of whom will remember her for her joyful and innocent view of life. A memorial Mass for Dolly will be celebrated on Friday, September 27, at 11 a.m. at St. Dominic Church in Shortsville. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be sent to Lifetime Care Hospice, Attention Newark Department, 3111 South Winton Road, Rochester, NY 14623.

Surprise change at top value shop First EagleAaron Pressman
Jean-Marie Eveillard was one of the most impressive mutual fund managers of all time when he left the stage at the end of 2004. At that point, his little shop of value investors was part of Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder Advisers in New York, which bought the group in 1999 after many years as part of French bank Societe Generale. Eveillard left the handful of funds he managed, including the First Eagle Global Fund (Symbol:SGENX) and First Eagle Overseas Fund (SGOVX), in the seemingly capable hands of his protege, Charles de Vaulx. I interviewed both men together in October 2003 as they prepared for Eveillard's retirement and they sounded like two peas in a pod.
So I was somewhat stunned to receive a press release this morning from Bleichroeder stating that de Vaulx had resigned and Eveillard, who must be approaching 70 years old, was returning to oversee all the funds. No explanation in the release as to why the change was made. The $12 billion First Eagle Overseas Fund had a mediocre year last year gaining 22%, trailing the MSCI EAFE Index Morningstar used as its benchmark by 4 percentage points and falling behind over 80% of similar funds according to Morningstar. The $21 billion First Eagle Global Fund, however, had a better year, gaining 21% and beating two-thirds of similar funds according to Morningstar.
Maybe that's why de Vaulx left. I don't know -- I have a call in with the firm to find out more. Still, the overseas fund posted similar lackluster performance according to Morningstar in 2003 and 2004 before Eveillard left. Perhaps the firm is using other benchmarks or risk-adjusted returns that put the funds' more recent performance in a worse light. I'll update when I find out more.
(UPDATE) John Arnhold, CEO of the firm, says he can't comment on de Vaulx's resignation beyond saying that it was in fact a resignation. He says the plan is for Eveillard to prep a successor over the next few years and then again step back. The old manager was back at his post at 8 a.m., Arnhold reports. Both funds mentioned above remain closed to new investors.

Board trims redistricting options to two, for now
By Tom Lappas, Citizen Editor 11/18/12
And then there were two. Probably.
The Henrico County School Board earlier this month eliminated from consideration one of three redistricting options created by a committee of citizens for the new Kaechele Elementary School in Short Pump. The board agreed that Option 3 (Revised Option F) would have too significant a domino effect, shifting too many students at other elementary schools and potentially costing the system Title I funding at Ridge Elementary School.
But the board also directed the school system's planning staff members to review the two remaining plans and consider tweaking them or creating a hybrid option of those two if possible. The board is scheduled to hold a public hearing to receive more feedback from the community during its Dec. 6 meeting at Hermitage High School, beginning at 6 p.m.
During its Nov. 8 work session, the board heard from its redistricting committee, which met 11 times during a two-month period to create the three options and also presented drafts during two public meetings to receive citizen feedback.
The majority of committee members favored Option 2 (Revised Option E), which would move about 36 percent more students than Option 1 (Revised Option A) among the affected elementary schools but would present the best set of compromises to all involved communities, according to redistricting committee vice chairwoman Alice Ann Howard. That map also would do the best job creating boundaries by major roads and geographical landmarks and would not change middle or high school feeder patterns.
Option 1 would provide the best enrollment balance across all elementary schools affected by the redistricting and would ensure that none of those schools were over capacity through 2016, redistricting committee chairman Bill Panak said. But it also would require a few irregular boundaries and would mean that not every community would receive a preferred option. It also would change feeder patterns for 333 students.
In addition to setting boundaries for Kaechele Elementary, the committee was tasked with providing relief for other nearby schools forecasted to exceed their capacity soon and to provide relief for those at or above 95 percent capacity currently. The committee considered the boundaries of 12 elementary schools when creating its maps.
Several School Board members expressed a desire to use West Broad Street as a dividing line between elementary school zones – ensuring that schools north of the road drew only from communities to the north, while schools to the south drew only from the south. Committee members said they had the same desires but were unable to make them a reality without involving even more schools in the process.
"We ran out of room," Howard said of the committee's attempts to use the road as a north-south boundary.
Still, School Board Chairwoman Diana Winston directed planning staff members to take another look and determine if that goal still might be accomplished.
Howard conceded that all three options underutilized Three Chopt Elementary, which is comfortably under capacity. But, she said, moving other students into the school's zone would have required shifting boundaries of schools beyond the 12 originally under consideration.
Map 3 would have moved 160 low-income students from Ridge Elementary to Pinchbeck, likely threatening Ridge's designation as a Title I school. Title I is a federal designation that provides extra funding to schools with a certain percentage of low-income students. Ridge would fall below that threshold with the move, while Pinchbeck would not quite reach it even with the addition of those students, Deputy Superintendent Pat Kinlaw said.
Once the board adopts new boundaries, rising fourth- and fifth-graders at any of the affected schools will be able to remain at their current schools if they choose. Students who move to the district to begin fourth or fifth grade, however, must attend the school designated by the new boundaries.

Public transportation is an environment with great potential for applying innovative ubiquitous computing services to enhance user experiences. This paper provides the underpinning rationale for research that will be looking at how real-time passenger information system deployed by transit authorities can provide a core platform to improve commuters' user experiences during all stages of their journey. The proposal builds on this platform to inform the design and development of innovative social media, mobile computing and geospatial information applications, with the hope to create fun and meaningful experiences for passengers during their everyday travel. Furthermore, we present the findings of our pilot study that aims to offer a better understanding of passengers' activities and social interactions during their daily commute.

Organizations increasingly depend on computer-based data collection, organization and analysis to inform their decisions
We live in a digital world. Whether a problem revolves around engineering, science, or business, inevitably, the solution will have "computing" at its core. The "search engine" has now become a ubiquitous presence in our personal and professional lives as a means to readily accessing information needed for decision-making that only a few years ago would have required armies of researchers and days or weeks to compile and organize.
Computing is a growing and continuously evolving discipline that provides ongoing opportunity for its graduates. Businesses and other organizations increasingly depend on computer-based data collection, organization and analysis to inform their decisions and professionals who can "bridge" computing and business are in high demand worldwide.
Computing is of course about developing code and software, but it takes more than keystrokes to build an idea into a "product". It takes collaboration and teamwork, and understanding other disciplines and their needs. It takes both managerial and technical skills. And it takes creativity and the ability to lead.
ACT offers the opportunity to students to obtain a well rounded degree in Computer Science or an applied degree in Business Computing.
The computing curriculum is both rigorous and challenging and provides students with both theoretical background but also the practical skills needed by organizations and companies across the board. Still aiming to provide a well-rounded education, not only expert functional training, the program allows students to readily combine Computing studies with other disciplines such as Business, etc. And the school's IT labs, Electronics-Robotics lab and Fabrication Lab in the Niarchos Technology Center make state-of-the-art IT facilities easily accessible to students in the program.

Scouting Activities
Todd White
On February 7 of this year, Bishop Paul Loverde, the Bishop of Arlington and the State Chaplain of the Virginia Knights of Columbus, delivered the homily at the annual Scouting Mass at the Cathedral of St. Thomas More.
"Do good. Share what you have and sacrifice for others. Obey your leaders. As we heard in today's first reading, this is a "how to live well" list that the author of the Letter to the Hebrews writes to the early Christians. Don't they sound familiar? Of course, because they also match the formation of the Catholic Scout, so it is fitting that we reflect on them this morning at our Annual Diocesan Scout Mass!"
The Bishop's homily is reproduced in full in the March issue of The Bridge, the monthly newsletter of the National Catholic Committee on Scouting, and you can read the full text HERE.
What about the Boy Scouts' new membership policy?
On May 23, 2013, a resolution was adopted by the National Council of the Boy Scouts of America that states: "No youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone."
In a statement issued the following day, our State Chaplain, Arlington Bishop Paul S. Loverde, said that the "decision forces us to prayerfully reconsider whether a continued partnership with the BSA will be possible." The Diocese of Richmond issued a statement saying, "Bishop DiLorenzo continues to encourage Catholics in our Diocese to live and witness the totality of Catholic teaching on morality and sexuality in all of our work for the Kingdom and to ensure that any Scouting program in partnership with the Catholic Diocese of Richmond is compatible wit the teaching of the Catholic Church."
On November 11, 2013, the National Catholic Committee on Scouting (NCCS) sent a letter to all those involved in Catholic Scouting reporting that after consulting with the BSA, the NCCS Executive Committee and the Episcopal Liaison from the U.S. Bishops Conference, they have issued guidelines in the form of a Q&A document.
A key conclusion is found in Q&A 13, which states that "public statements by the BSA would indicate that the organization's work neither contradicts, is ambiguous about, nor neglects Catholic teaching on sexuality. The NCCS accepts these statements by the BSA at face value."
The NCCS Q&A document is eleven single-spaced pages long, and addresses numerous aspects and implications of the BSA's change in membership policy.
Neither Bishop Loverde nor Bishop DiLorenzo have yet commented publicly on the November 2013 material from the NCCS.
The new BSA membership policy will not be officially implemented until January 1, 2014.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
Comfort Level - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
Credentials - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
Cost - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
City - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?

Apple crushes Street targets, dispels iPhone fears
By Poornima Gupta
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Apple Inc's quarterly profit almost doubled after a jump in iPhone sales, particularly for the greater China region, blowing past Wall Street expectations and soothing fears the device was past its best days for sharp growth.
Shares in Apple, the world's most valuable technology company, shot up 8 percent in after-hours trade, after falling as much as 13 percent from a record high of $644 in the past two weeks.
The results prompted a slew of analysts to raise their target price for Apple.
Apple sold 35.1 million iPhones - which account for about half its revenue - in the quarter, outpacing around 30 million expected by Wall Street analysts. Pent-up demand for the iPhone 4S helped lift revenue for China, Taiwan and Hong Kong five-fold.
"The room to grow in China is still very large, especially because Apple hasn't started working with China Mobile. Once they start cooperation, it'll keep the growth momentum going even in Q2 when global iPhone 4S sales are expected to drop," said Mike Fang, a fund manager at Paradigm Asset Management based in Taipei.
China Mobile, the world's largest mobile operator by subscribers, is the only Chinese carrier that does not have a contract with Apple to sell iPhones.
"Right now, Apple stores are only open in first-tier cities in China, so there's still a lot of room to expand."
Net income rose to $11.6 billion, or $12.30 a share, from $6 billion, or $6.40 per share, a year earlier, outpacing a Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S consensus estimate of $10.04 a share. Continued...

The Chairman of the 9/11 Commission, Thomas Kean, as well as Commissioner John Lehman, were George Stephanopoulos's guests on ABC's "This Week" Sunday, and they both spoke out strongly in favor of the upcoming miniseries "The Path to 9/11" (video link to follow).
At the beginning of this discussion, Stephanopoulos presented concerns expressed by Clinton administration officials about the docudrama, and asked Kean if the program should be aired. Kean responded:
Oh, of course, it should be aired. I mean, I'm not for censorship or not allowing people to see things. In my experience with these people who've been working in the film they've been responsive to criticism, mine and other people's, and have made changes that were necessary. I haven't seen the final cut. It's a miniseries. It's not a documentary. It's not done by ABC news. It's done by ABC news entertainment, but as I've seen it, I think it'll make a contribution.
Stephanopoulos then reiterated concerns of the Clinton administration, in particular about a couple of scenes in the film, and asked, "Did you ask the filmmakers to change those scenes and did they change them?" Kean responded:
I don't know. I haven't seen the final cut. Any problems with it have been brought to their attention, and all I can say is they've been responsive in the past. I haven't seen the final product. But I think people who do see the final product, people who are watching tonight and tomorrow night are gonna see a film which really makes you understand a little better the kind of people, the kind of minds of these terrorists and the whole film leads into -- because it follows the plot for six years of the Clinton administration and six or eight months of the Bush administration. Both administrations are faulted and in the end I think you're led to our recommendations, you're led at the end of the film to why haven't we done more at this point to make the world safer and to make the United States safer.
As the discussion ensued, John Lehman brilliantly offered the following:
Well, I agree that people should go back to the report. It's very readable and that is factual. All of us Democrats and Republicans have endorsed that. I haven't seen the film, but I can reassure and comfort my Democratic colleagues that as a Republican having lived with the hostility of Hollywood through the last 30 years, that it's not going to have an earth-shaking impact, and I think that it certainly should go forward. It's, I'm told equally harsh against the Bush administration, in fact, both Bush administrations and even back to Reagan for not retaliating against early strikes, so absolutely it should go forward, and if you don't like the hits to the Clinton administration, well, welcome to the club. The Republicans have lived with Michael Moore and Oliver Stone and most of Hollywood as a fact of life.
Chairman Kean was given the last word:
Well, the fascinating thing, George, is nobody's seen the final cut. Most of the people who are talking haven't seen any version whatsoever. Only in the United States and in Washington could this kind of a debate occur about things people haven't seen. I don't know what the comments are gonna be the morning after but I think they'll be good and I think people will be glad they saw it and I think people will get something out of it and I think it's going to move our recommendations forward unless they've changed it. It finishes with our report card showing so much -- how much still has to be done by this country to make us safer.
Yet, maybe the finest moment of Sunday's program was the following statement made by ABC's George Will during the panel discussion:
I think docudramas are a very questionable enterprise in general because they lead at the far extreme to something like Oliver Stone's "JFK" which was simply a license to lie, to send out to the country to a vast audience a meretricious fictionalization and conspiracy paranoia that is in that man's head. On the other hand -- I'm skeptical of the whole enterprise. Now, Democrats can get as angry as they want, unless they have been silent on Michael Moore and "Fahrenheit 9/11" because they have a very selective conscience about lying!
Those interested in seeing Lehman's statements should go here. I am still working on a video of Kean and Will's comments.
