I believe a child's education is shaped by the entirety of his or her experience. While children learn and grow through every day events, I think it's their home environment, parents, and early education that ultimately promote their development. In today's information age, we have the opportunity to promote literacy using extraordinary technological tools. Ten years of experience as an online college educator has helped me blend reading and technology to promote literacy with two very important students: my children.
I think the Internet has changed the way parents and educators understand literacy in today's world. By using the Internet, school projects have become an opportunity for our children to develop their independence by allowing them to research based on their personal interests. As a parent, it's wonderful to witness my children's enthusiasm and accomplishment in their reading and writing work. I'm confident it's also developed their confidence because they've used the Internet to produce ideas that are expressive and creative.
As parent and educator, I realize that literacy in the 21st century will require more technical literacy. To help foster this skill, my children spend time communicating virtually with their classroom peers, download e-books, listen to online audio books, and locate virtual tutorials. My responsibility as a parent is to support and guide them as they evaluate content, analyze material, synthesize information, and create reports. I think technical literacy means not only knowing how to access reliable information but also knowing how to apply it to school.
My son recently completed a report on the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's sinking. Since the Internet is overflowing with information on this topic, it placed special demands on my son's ability as a reader. Although my son was able to apply the same print reading strategies to his Internet reading, it was still challenging. One challenge was overcoming all the fantastic graphics and catchy content that could've diverted from his reading. As his online research progressed, so did his ability to evaluate the content and usefulness of each website. By the end of the project, he understood new concepts, improved his vocabulary, and organized his ideas.
I use technology to promote literacy with my children because their future success will depend increasingly on their ability to leverage the tools of society's future academic and work environments. And while technology and literacy have made inroads in the classroom, it's imperative that we as parents do the same at home.

Windows 7 Ultimate Cracked and Activated Permanently with OEM SLP Master Product Key
Windows 7 Ultimate has been cracked, and can be permanently activated with OEM style instant offline activation which will pass Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) validation, before even any Windows 7 is officially released according to Windows 7 release schedule. All hell breaks loose when a Windows 7 Ultimate OEM DVD ISO from Lenovo been leaked and posted on Chinese forum. The ISO was quickly grabbed to retrieve boot.wim, which was then used to retrieve the OEM-SLP product key and OEM certificate for Windows 7 Ultimate.
Microsoft has updated the the SLP (System-Locked Preinstallation), a procedure that used to preactivate Windows operating system for mass distribution by major OEM (original equipment manufacturers), to version 2.1 to support Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 while provided backward-compatibility for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 activation. Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 OEM activation is provided by SLP 2.0. SLP 2.1 requires SLIC imprinted in BIOS to be updated to SLIC version 2.1 too, which contains new Windows Marker.
After extracting the OEM certificate and OEM product key, it's confirmed that Windows 7 uses the same digitally signed OEM certificate (in .xrm-ms extension) that is been used in Windows Vista. Windows Vista OEM cert can be used in Windows 7 has been explained in Windows 7 forum. As OEM certificate is digitally signed by Microsoft with its own Private Key with OEM Public Key and OEMID (part of SLIC table in BIOS). The combination of correct Private Key, Public Key with OEMID will pass SLP validation as valid Microsoft license. Meanwhile, Windows Marker is signed by OEM itself based on OEMID and OEMTableID (both belongs to SLIC) using the private key that matches the public key. Thus, the same OEM cert can be used for many different SLICs, as long as OEMID remains the same, as in the case of SLP 2.0 and SLP 2.1, although Windows Marker has changed due to different OEMTableID.
The trick is to have BIOS modded to include the SLIC 2.1. The SLIC 2.1 can be modded into BIOS physically (hardmod or biosmod) or been emulated or simulated during Windows boots up (softmod). Various SLIC 2.1 BIN has been retrieved from various notebook computer that shipped with new SLIC 2.1 in BIOS to support the free Windows 7 Upgrade Option from Windows Vista. If you just bought a new PC, it's possible to check if SLIC 2.1 exists in BIOS. The information can be used to mod the BIOS. If you're not technically know-how, it's possible to request for BIOS mod assistant, or wait for Windows 7 Loader or WoW7.
Last but not least (which makes no activation crack works properly so far) is OEM-SLP product key for Windows 7. So far no OEM-SLP product key required to activate Windows 7 as OEM offline instant activation been leaked yet as no machine has been officially ship in Windows 7 by OEM, until now.
The extracted Windows 7 Ultimate OEM-SLP product key, xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx, can be used to activate installed Windows 7 Ultimate system, which BIOS has a valid OEM SLIC 2.1, and corresponding OEM cert, even if it's OEM cert meant for Windows Vista. Best news is that, the product key appears to be a master OEM-SLP product key for Windows 7 Ultimate, which able to activate many OEM brands, such as HP, Dell, MSI and Lenovo. Checkout the discussion at Windows 7 forums.
Tip: It doesn't matter if you have download and install Windows 7 RTM retail version ISO or Windows 7 RTM OEM version ISO. Just use the following commands to convert to OEM version:
slmgr.vbs -ilc OEM.XRM-MS (where OEM.XRM-MS is a valid OEM cert matching with SLIC 2.1 in BIOS)
slmgr -ipk xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx (visit link)
Both 32-bit and 64-bit (x86 and x64) Windows 7 Ultimate system should and can be activated immediately. For Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Home Basic, and Windows 7 Starter, the OEM-SLP keys haven't been leaked, thus can't be OEM-activated yet. It's expected that various Windows 7 activators, Windows 7 activation toolkits, Windows 7 Loaders and etc are expected to be released by various hackers soon.

The film adaptation of the Suzanne Collins novel "The Hunger Games" doesn't hit theaters until Friday. But the hype is wall-to-wall and many of the movie reviews by film critics are in. The verdict? The movie looks to be a winner whether you've read the book or not.
For most reviews, "Hunger Games," which has currently sold more advance tickets than any non-sequel, scored ratings of at least four out of five stars, three out of four stars, and a few "A" grades. Critics particularly praised actress Jennifer Lawrence's performance as heroine Katniss Everdeen, who volunteers to replace her sister in the deadly Hunger Games run by a dystopian government.
"At its center is Jennifer Lawrence, an ideal choice to play this strong, independent young woman," Associated Press reviewer Christy LeMire wrote of the film. "There's a youthful energy and even a vulnerability that make her relatable to the core, target audience of female fans. Lawrence is endlessly watchable."
Chicago Tribune reviewer Michael Phillips said he would praise Lawrence as the best thing in the film if the rest wasn't equally as good.
"The young actress received an Oscar nomination for her work in "Winter's Bone," and her performance here is no less fierce and purposeful," he wrote.
Entertainment Weekly's Lisa Schwarzbaum agreed: "Jennifer Lawrence… is, in her gravity, her intensity, and her own unmannered beauty, about as impressive a Hollywood incarnation of Katniss as one could ever imagine," Schwarzbaum wrote.
Reviewers also agreed that director Gary Ross's film treatment of the source material keeps the societal commentary of author Suzanne Collins' original trilogy.
"So-called reality TV is given a sharp, satirical kick as Tributes learn to play and pander to hidden cameras," writes Rolling Stone critic Peter Travers.
Guardian critic Xan Brooks wrote that "[Ross] rustles up a film that is harsh and satisfying; a candy-coated entertainment with a chip of ice at the centre."
Also praised: the supporting cast, which includes stars like Elizabeth Banks as perky contestant escort Effie Trinket, Woody Harrelson as alcoholic mentor Haymitch Abernathy, and Stanley Tucci as unctuous TV host Caesar Flickerman, of whom Phillips writes, "Nothing in "The Hunger Games" is more frightening than Tucci's smile."
The AP's LeMire, however, did complain that the less-attractive behavior of the character Haymitch, who spends much of the beginning of the novel intoxicated or suffering the after-effects of it, were toned down for the film. "The character's rough edges have been buffed significantly and it's not an improvement," LeMire writes.
A different heroine than Twilight
The books and movies have been compared to the last boffo young adult series, Twilight, which centered on the teenager Bella Swan and the tortured love triangle made up of her, vampire Edward and werewolf Jacob. Many suggest that "Games" will appeal most to female teenagers.
"Teenage girls are going to love this film — so much so that I wouldn't mind betting it will be the first in a very profitable franchise," Daily Mail critic Chris Tookey wrote.
But many reviewers pointed out the positive (in their eyes) differences between "Games" and the vampire saga featuring mopey Bella Swan. "Katniss makes Twilight's Bella Swan look like the wimp she is," Travers writes. Telegraph critic Robbie Collins noted that "both teenage heroines journey deep into the woods at dusk, but while Twilight's Bella returns flanked by bickering supernatural beefcake, Katniss emerges alone, smeared in blood and muck and gnawing on the charred remains of a spatchcocked squirrel."
Some critics also had problems with the film's ending, which apparently differs in some way from the novel. "Only at the end does the director falter, hindered by the demands of franchise film production (there are three books in the series) and bowing out with a whimper not a bang," Brooks wrote of Ross.
But so far, response to the movie has been overwhelmingly positive. Fans can take a deep breath and buy their midnight tickets – if there are any left, that is.

Donald Pettit is, as well as being a NASA astronaut, an exceptionally keen photographer — which is why he has over 10 top-of-line DSLR cameras littering the International Space Station. In this video, he talks about the complexities and joys of photography in space.
Donald gets to grips with the fact that zero-g photography is inherently different to Earth-bound picture taking — even if NASA doesn't like it that way — as well as the artistic and environmental factors that affect the process. There is, of course, a reasonable amount to geekery in there too, and he touches on using a modded Nikon D35 to capture IR images, as well as the technicalities of minimising reflections when taking images through the space stations windows.
All in, it's a fascinating little film, whether you've ever thought about photography in space or not. [Vimeo via Peta Pixel]

I wonder if there's an equivalent saying in Mandarin for "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade." In this case, the lemon is the Chrysler Sebring and the lemonade is this surprisingly attractive Chinese electric car.
Chrysler produces the crappy Sebring in China in partnership with Beijing Automotive, so this isn't a case of the Chinese ripping off the worst car in Fiat's portfolio, but rather building a version of it under license.
Equipped with a lithium iron phosphate battery pack, the Beijing BE701 EV can travel up to 125 miles and 100 MPH on a charge. Nothing terribly new there, but the company is using the couple hundred it plans to produce for a trial electric taxi service in Beijing (the city, not the car company), where high-voltage charging stations will recharge cars in under an hour.

Homicides in Nashville drop to lowest level in 50 years
Police reported 43 criminal homicides in Nashville in 2013 — the lowest level in the city in at least 50 years.
Among last year's victims were Nashville country singer Wayne Mills, 44, who was fatally shot in a downtown bar in November; 50-year-old Darrell Wright, who was killed in August during an armed robbery at a North Nashville convenience store, where he had gone to visit the owner, his friend; a 17-month-old girl named Elois Costanza, who police say suffered severe head trauma at the hands of her mother's boyfriend; and 52-year-old Ray Alexander, who perished during an arson fire that his wife, son and three grandchildren were able to escape.
In each of those deaths, police have identified suspects who are awaiting trial.
The 2013 total represents a decrease from 2012's 62 reported homicides. The total includes two victims killed in previous years but whose remains went undiscovered until last year, and one victim shot in 1987 who succumbed to his injuries in 2013.
The drop in homicide levels accompanies an overall decrease in the number of major crime incidents. Metro Police Chief Steve Anderson said he expects the overall count of major crimes to have dropped six percent — by about 2,000 incidents — in 2013, when statistics are finalized in coming weeks.
'One murder
(is) too many'
Don Aaron, spokesman for Metro Police, said the mayor's commitment to keeping the department fully staffed played an important factor in reducing homicides.
"A fully staffed police department allows for more officers on the street to deter crime and interdict less serious offenses before they potentially become larger, more violent issues," he said.
He said partnerships with neighborhood watches, community and business groups and clergy have also helped increase public safety.
The city's previous lowest homicide count was 45, recorded in 1963 — the year Metro government came into existence, when Nashville had a population of about 150,000. The city now has nearly 650,000 residents.
"While last year's decrease in the criminal homicide total is significant, we should all consider even one murder to be too many," said Anderson, who credited the administration of Mayor Karl Dean, the Metro Council and the entire community for the low number.
Staff writer Brian Haas contributed to this report.

There are rocks involved in this story, so the analogy comes right to mind.
Ann Swisshelm had begun to feel a bit like Sisyphus, the accursed guy from ancient mythology who pushed a rock so close to the top of the hill only to have the thing go rolling right back down.
Until last weekend, that is, when a decade of frequently futile pushing brought Swisshelm the desired result: a second chance to compete in the Winter Olympics.
The Chicago curler's team had finished fourth in 2002 at Salt Lake City. Sure, that was the best finish for U.S. women since curling became a women's Olympic medal sport in 1998, but fourth still seems the worst place to finish in an event with three medalists.
It wasn't for Swisshelm.
"It hasn't eaten at me," she said. "It was disappointing you weren't on the podium but also motivating."
Swisshelm wanted to get back to the Olympics. In the U.S. curling trials for the 2006 and 2010 Winter Olympics, a winner-takes-all proposition, her team twice finished second, losing the 2006 final by one point in overtime.
In this sport where points are scored by sliding rocks across ice into an area called the house, that was like getting soooooooo close to the top of the heap. Or hill.
"Those were the hardest losses," she said.
They were motivating as well. Swisshelm saw the end of her elite curling career approaching because spending 120 days on the road for the sport every year was becoming too much of a burden. So she decided to put everything into a final effort.
In the summer of 2011, Swisshelm and three other Olympians, Erika Brown, Debbie McCormick and Jessica Schultz, formed a team — known as the Erika Brown "rink" or Team Brown in curling — dedicated not only to making the 2014 U.S. team but to bringing a medal back from Sochi, Russia, in February.
That meant traveling about every other weekend to Toronto, where Brown, who won her first of a record four USA Curling athlete of the year awards a quarter-century ago, lives with her two young children. For Swisshelm, it meant giving up her job again to concentrate on curling.
Success was not immediate. They finished sixth at the U.S. Championships in 2012.
Last season, Team Brown not only won the national title but also finished fourth at the World Championships, earning their country a spot in the 10-team Olympic field. Four teams competed to get that spot in a weeklong U.S. trials that ended Sunday in Fargo, N.D.
After tying for first in the double round-robin phase, Team Brown won the best-of-three playoffs in two straight games. That made Swisshelm, 45, a graduate of Glenbrook North and Drake University, almost certainly the oldest member of Team USA in Sochi.
Only one U.S. women's winter Olympian, Swisshelm's 2002 curling teammate Joni Cotten, then 48, has been older than 40.
"This absolutely means more because of the past two trials," she said.
Swisshelm began curling at Exmoor Country Club in Highland Park, where she still trains, not long after her family moved to Northbrook from Ohio when she was 9. Through high school, her interests were in other sports, especially basketball.
Her competitive curling career started in earnest after college, where she had earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree as a classical theater major.
Swisshelm spent a couple of years working as a non-credited production assistant on feature films being shot in Chicago (including "Backdraft" and "Only the Lonely") before getting jobs in sales and marketing. She often would call on customers during curling trips in the Midwest.
Curling introduced Swisshelm to her husband of 11 years, Sean Silver. They live in Chicago's West Town. Swisshelm was USA Curling athlete of the year in 2001. Her first Olympic trials was 1998. She insists this was her last.
"It's time for the next generation," she said.
McCormick, 39, of Rio, Wis., and Brown, 40, an Ontario transplant from Madison, Wis., competed in the '98 Olympics, and McCormick also made the U.S. team in '02 and '10. Schultz, 28, of Minneapolis, is a '06 Olympian.
"This is the opportunity you've planned for and trained for but it's still a little unreal that it happened," Swisshelm said. "At my age, you can imagine how much I respect this is still possible."
She isn't too old to rock the Olympics.

Site Max necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 68 diseños de 27 diseñadores freelance.
We need a logo designed for a Tooth Whitening company that conveys the idea that this product uses the most advanced technology and is completed in the least amount of time. The logo will be used on all promotional items including: Web Site, Business Cards, Postcards, Posters, Trade Show Booth Signage, Magazines, etc.
Wave Light
The #1 facial feature people notice is your smile. Tooth Whitening is one of the most dramatic ways to improve one's appearance. At 'Wave Light' we offer a revolutionary service that can whiten a person's teeth 2-6 shades whiter in just 20 minutes. Blue L.E.D. lights are used to fast-activate whitening gels that are used to bleach the teeth. This service will be franchised across North America to be available at shopping malls and high-end spas.
Please also review this video:
The logo will have three components: an Icon, the Company Name and the Tag Line. The Icon and Company Name are to be on one line with the Icon to the far left. We would like the icon to incorporate the use of a wave representing the Blue L.E.D light. The Tag Line will be on a second line below the logo.
Include logo or icon, along with name, that can represent the brand.
We want to focus on the wave as far as the Icon goes. It could have the letters "WL" over or within the wave.
Intend for the logo to be used on various promotional pieces such as business cards, postcards, tradeshow booths, posters.
Design should be sophisticated, futuristic and easily recognizable.
Ideally the target market is everyone who has teeth; however we would like a bold, yet feminine touch to it.
Artwork needs to be in vector format.
Preference is to use black, blue and white, but we would consider designs that add an additional colour.
We would like to see the "WL" in a larger font used within the wave icon.
Use this tagline "Advanced Cosmetic Whitening" on a second line beneath the logo.
Anything that looks cartoonish or animated.

Seahawks rookie quarterback Russell Wilson was named NFL Rookie of the Year (determined by a fan vote) on Saturday night during an awards ceremony in New Orleans
In voting for NFL Rookie of the Year at NFL.com, Wilson received more votes than those other quarterbacks, as well as Redskins running back Alfred Morris and running back Doug Martin of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Wilson led the Seahawks to 11 wins and into the playoffs. He finished the season throwing for 3,118 yards, 26 touchdowns and a 100.0 passer rating - fourth best in the NFL.
Wilson s 26 touchdown passes tied the NFL s single season record by a rookie set in 1998 by Peyton Manning.
The Seahawks finished the year 8-0 at home, which established Wilson as the first rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to lead his team to an undefeated home record.
Wilson was nominated for Pepsi MAX NFL Rookie of the Week eight times, winning the award once.
Wilson finished third in balloting for Associated Press NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year behind winner Robert Griffin III of the Washington Redskins and Andrew Luck of the Indianapolis Colts.

AlwaysOn Availability Groups (AGs) are a complex technology.
However, one of the biggest benefits that AGs provide are both high availability (or fault-tolerance) and disaster recovery (or the ability to keep data synchronized offsite for smoke and rubble contingencies) in a single package. Stated differently, when DBAs and SysAdmins learn the ins-and-outs of this single technology (which isn't quite as trivial as it sounds), they're then able to address high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) concerns from a single interface or set of tooling, thus providing better scalability of management.
There is a big caveat though—which is that AlwaysOn Availability Groups can't protect against disasters caused by users or rogue applications. Or, in other words, the HA and DR components afforded by AGs are made possible by mirroring data to multiple servers (thereby providing intra-data center protection via HA/fault-tolerance and extra data center protection by mirroring data off-site).
The assumption, though, is that the data being mirrored is always correct. If a software glitch or an end-user, or a DBA, or developer, or whatever happens to accidentally either destroy data or bust it, then that data is still highly available and fault-tolerant, but wrong. In most organizations, that should represent a disaster (who cares how fast and 'up' your data is if it's wrong).
Related: Don't Confuse High Availability with Disaster Preparedness
In situations like this, AlwaysOn Availability Groups won't be able to help you. (No HA solution really will.) Instead, you're going to need a backup.
The Problem with Backups and AlwaysOn Availability Groups
But there's a problem with backups when it comes to AlwaysOn Availability Groups—which is that you can't restore a backup over the top of a database that's part of an Availability Group. Instead, you have to either tear down the Availability Group or remove the database from the Group (there are arguments or reasons for why one or either of these options MIGHT make sense) and then, once the database is no longer being mirrored, THEN you can restore over the top of it.
There are two huge issues with such an approach though:
First, and most obvious, is that either tearing down an AG or removing a database from it, restoring it, and then rebuilding everything back as it was before the disaster, is going to be tedious, time consuming, and something that's potentially prone to errors. It's also not going to be a win in terms of overall uptime/availability.
Second, and obvious to anyone who's ever been asked to restore data to the way it was before "that idiot in development destroyed all of our customer data by running an UPDATE statement without a WHERE clause," is that while you can restore data to the point it was at BEFORE a user error destroyed it, you'll run into a few subsequent problems. Meaning that you'll be stuck with a choice: either you revert the ENTIRE database back to the way it was before data was destroyed—and lose any subsequent changes/modifications to ALL other tables and to the table in question, OR you'll have to stand-up a COPY of the database you're trying to recover, bring it to the point-in-time before data was destroyed, and then MANUALLY create UPDATE … FROM statements that'll pull in data from the restored copy of your database and overwrite the 'destroyed' data.
This is insanely tedious, very error prone, and STILL means you'll end up losing any changes to the data AFTER the data was destroyed. (Imagine a table used to keep track of physical inventory—where ALL products accidentally, somehow, get set to InventoryCount = 0—if you recover to the levels/values that inventory levels were BEFORE this accidental overwrite took place, you've reverted to where things were before the disaster; but have any products been added/removed from inventory while you were fighting with the disaster? If so, then your inventory levels are still inaccurate).
A key benefit of the second approach, however, is that the approach of standing-up a copy of your database next to mirrored/AG database means you won't have to pull it out of an Availability Group or stop mirroring it. (Note, too, that for both scenarios listed above, I just assume that you have FULL/FULL+DIFF and Transaction Log backups on hand. If you don't, then you need to be fired.)
Related: Be Invincible with AlwaysOn Availability Groups
Using a Third Party Log Reader Agent
An easier way of recovering from these kinds of user error disasters is, of course, to NOT enable them in the first place (i.e., don't give users the kind of access to production systems that would even let them run UPDATE or DELETE statements and so on). In a few environments I've seen, however, that's much easier said than done. And, in all environments, there's still the potential that a software glitch or bug might end up maiming some of your data under certain scenarios. Which, in turn, means you should always have some sort of contingency plan to address these kinds of problems.
And, to that end, I can't recommend Log Reader Agents enough. In overly-simplified terms, Log Reader Agents take advantage of the fact that the Transaction Log for SQL Server databases keeps tabs on the BEFORE and AFTER values of what data should look like (before and after) every, single, change to your database. As such, by reading the transaction log, Log Reader Agents can help a DBA or SysAdmin find particular operations or changes and then generate scripts that will, effectively, roll out or undo the changes in question—by simply creating UPDATE statements that'll set data to what it was PRIOR to the accident in question.
Better yet, these same tools can also scan the logs looking for any subsequent changes to the data/records in question, and roll forward any subsequent (non-bad/non-accidental) changes as well. So, in the case of inventory levels all being accidentally set to zero, a Log Reader Agent can both reset those values to what they were PRIOR to an accident AND make sure that individual UPDATE statements that might have incremented or decremented inventory levels of particular products also get re-run or don't get lost.
Given that AlwaysOn Availability Groups are an Enterprise Edition feature, it therefore stands to reason that the $700 - $1,600 that a Third Party Log Reader agent will cost is, effectively, just a drop in a bucket.
Moreover, given that one of these tools can "save your bacon" in a disaster—while still letting you keep your databases/AGs up and running as you pour over the logs and find/create a fix—and it should go without saying that a Third Party Log Reader Agent should be in the toolbox of every DBA managing AlwaysOn Availability Groups (the cost of not having a solution like this on hand is just too high otherwise).
Third Party Log Reader Agents:
ApexSQL Log - My hands-down favorite. This tool is solely focused on being a log reader agent—and does a fantastic job of it.
Toad for SQL Server – Toad for SQL Server actually bundles a log reader agent—not a bad add-on at all to a product that many DBAs love and use already.

Date: Dec. 7
Her story: Michelle Zilka, 36, grew up in Bel Air. She is an assistant lab director at the Center for Inherited Disease Research at Johns Hopkins' Bayview Medical Center. Her parents, Patricia Zilka, who retired in December, and Paul Zilka, a contractor for Lockheed Martin, live in Bel Air.
His story: Joshua Mawhinney, 34, grew up in Bel Air and Fallston. He is an assistant controller for Aerotek, a staffing agency based in Hanover. His parents, Linda Mawhinney, a speech pathologist, and Merv Mawhinney, director of transportation for Baltimore County's schools, live in Fallston.
Their story: Michelle and Josh met through a mutual friend in June 2010. Michelle says her friends persuaded her to go with them to a block party in Canton one weekend, where she ran into a friend from high school who had brought Josh.
About a week after they met, Josh, who plays softball with the Baltimore Sports & Social Club, had a game canceled. He asked Michelle to dinner that night for an impromptu first date at El Salto, a Mexican restaurant near her Parkville home.
"We kind of joke about it, because normally on a first date, I'd go to a fancier place," says Josh.
The proposal: Michelle and Josh say they skipped a few date nights in a row last spring because of their busy schedules. To make up for lost time, Josh suggested they plan something special.
One night in April 2013, they dined at Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar in Harbor East and later stopped by Vaccaro's in Little Italy to pick up dessert.
"She was supposed to go to a bench, and we'd eat our ice cream and it'd be really romantic," Josh says. But Michelle was rushing to get to their car because it was cold outside, so Josh had to improvise. He crossed the street to where Michelle was standing, knelt down on one knee, and proposed with a ring from Smyth Jewelers.
The venue: About 190 guests attended the ceremony at St. Stephen's Roman Catholic Church in Kingsville, where Michelle attended grade school. Deacon Frank Laws, the father of one of Michelle's friend from grade school, presided. A cocktail hour and reception were held at the 1840s Ballroom in Baltimore.
Decor: "I really love the idea of a Christmas-y, holiday-type wedding," says Michelle. Guests rang jingle bells as Michelle and Josh left the church after the ceremony. The couple drove away in a 1934 classic Lincoln from Lasting Impressions in Westminster.
Lanterns holding candles were accented by winter greens, pine cones and red berries to make the centerpieces. Nutcrackers and a Christmas tree already in place at the venue added to the festive decor. Christmas bulbs decorated with snowflakes served as escort card holders and favors.
Flowers: Jonathans Wedding & Flowers of Forest Hill created Michelle's bouquet using white lilies, stephanotis, red roses, red berries and cedar leaves. The bridesmaids' bouquets included red roses and red gerbera daisies.
Her dress: The bride wore a strapless satin, ivory A-line gown by Essense of Australia from Amanda Ritchey Bridal & Beauty in Fallston. Her jewelry was made by Faye Daniel Designs in Bel Air. Her "something blue" was a sapphire ring that was a gift from Josh for their first Christmas together.
Bridesmaids' dresses: The women wore floor-length, strapless, black satin gowns with pleated bodices from K&B Bridals in Bel Air.
Men's attire: The men wore black tuxedos and black-and-white spectator shoes from Men's Wearhouse. Josh wore an ivory vest and tie to match Michelle's dress, while the groomsmen wore black vests and ties.
Music: DJ Jason Burns of Baltimore entertained. Michelle and Josh's first dance was to "Smile" by Uncle Kracker.
Food and dessert: Dinner, provided by Hunt Valley Catering, included basil fettuccine, chicken marsala, crab cakes and steak. SugarBakers Cakes of Catonsville provided a four-tier cake with raspberry amoretto and red velvet layers. The cake topper had been used by Michelle's grandmother, mother and sister in their weddings. Josh's mother and aunt made Italian cookies in honor of their side of the family's heritage.

In recent years vegetarianism has grown in popularity. School-age children become more conscious that animals must be killed in order to obtain meat, and that knowledge may prompt them to choose a vegetarian diet. Vegetarian diets tend to be high in fiber and polyunsaturated fat, and low in cholesterol and calories.
If your child is following a vegetarian diet, you need to guard against nutritional deficiencies. There are various degrees of vegetarianism, and the strictness of the diet will determine whether your youngster is vulnerable to nutritional shortcomings.
Following are the common categories of vegetarians. Although none eat meat, poultry, or fish, there are other areas in which they vary:
Children can be well nourished on all three types of vegetarian diet, but nutritional balance is very difficult to achieve if dairy products and eggs are completely eliminated. Vegetarians sometimes consume insufficient amounts of calcium and vitamin D if they remove milk products from their diet.
Also, because of the lack of meat products, vegetarians sometimes have an inadequate iron intake. They may also consume insufficient amounts of vitamin B-12, zinc, and other minerals. If their caloric intake is also extremely low, this could cause a delay in normal growth and weight gain.
Vegetarians may also lack adequate protein sources. As a result, you need to ensure that your child receives a good balance of essential amino acids. As a general guideline, his protein intake should come from more than one source, combining cereal products (wheat, rice) with legumes (dry beans, soybeans, peas), for example; when eaten together, they provide a higher quality mixture of amino acids than if either is consumed alone.
Other planning may be necessary. To ensure adequate levels of vitamin B-12, you might serve your child commercially prepared foods fortified with this vitamin. While calcium is present in some vegetables, your child may still need a calcium supplement if he does not consume milk and other dairy products. Alternative sources of vitamin D might also be advisable if there is no milk in the diet. Your pediatrician may recommend iron supplements, too, although your child can improve his absorption of the iron in vegetables by drinking citrus juice at mealtime.
A Zen macrobiotic diet usually presents many more problems than a vegetarian diet. With a macrobiotic program, important foods (animal products, vegetables, and fruit) are severely restricted in stages. This diet is generally not recommended for children. Youngsters who adhere to it may experience serious nutritional deficiencies that can impair growth and lead to anemia and other severe complications.

The Honeybells Are In!
Every year I order these wonderful citrus fruits from Florida (they aren't technically oranges). They make a fantastic marmalade and the sweetest juice. This year I added to my repertoire and made a very tasty granita with Honeybell juice and ginger syrup and a soft tapenade with green olives, Honeybell juice (although any sweet orange juice will do) and a tiny amount of sugar. It is surprising: tart and sweet, refreshing and complex. I am thinking about ways to use it besides a condiment on a cheese platter, and I'll address that in my next post, but for the time being, here is the recipe.
Green Olive and Honeybell Tapenade
Makes 1 cup
1 cup green olives, pitted (I used Cerignola)
½ cup Honeybell orange juice
1 tablespoon sugar
Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and pulse to blend. I left it a bit grainy.
Spoon the tapenade into a sterilized ½ pint jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. (To sterilize the jar, boil the jar, band, and used lid–you don't need a new lid if you are not processing–in water for 10 minutes at sea level, adding 1 minute for every 1,000 feet above sea level.)
Honeybell Ginger Granita
Makes about 2 cups
I like to serve this granita in frozen Honeybell shells
1 cup Honeybell orange juice
¼ cup ginger syrup (see this post for the recipe)
Combine the juice and syrup in a small metal baking pan, and put into freezer. (If you use a narrow, deep pan the granita will take longer to freeze than a shallow, wide pan.)
After about an hour, run the tines of a fork through the slush to loosen it up and return to the freezer. After another hour or so do it again. Usually two times is enough for the crystals to become very flaky and dry.
Transfer the granita to a freezer jar or food grade plastic container and keep in the freezer, for months!
To serve, spoon the granita into glasses or frozen orange shells.

text: Save Rural Broadband was created by the National Telecommunications Cooperative Association, Organization for the Promotion and Advancement of Small Telecommunications Companies, and the Western Telecommunications Alliance to educate Americans about Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposals that could profoundly affect rural America. Our goal is to show Congress and the Obama administration how new rules that are just being implemented and further rules still being considered by the FCC are detrimental to efforts to upgrade broadband Internet networks in many rural communities – and how these changes would result in the loss of jobs and decreased economic development in regions of America that need them most. We are working to convince the FCC to modify its current proposal to bring it more in line with a reform plan submitted last year by a unified group of rural communications carriers. This plan is the product of many years of discussion, representing an important step forward by the telecommunications industry to reach tough compromises that will restore regulatory certainty. To that end, we've joined together to create this website to educate you about the consequences that would result from the FCC's new rules and to urge federal policymakers to adopt a better path forward. Throughout SaveRuralBroadband.org you will find information about broadband Internet access in rural America and the benefits it brings to rural communities, enabling you to learn more about this important issue. More importantly, you will be able to alert friends and neighbors, business partners, and others about the consequences of the rule changes on communities that rely on rural broadband Internet, and you will be able to let policymakers know of the more reasonable alternatives available for reform.

"When the Italian writer Antonio Monda sat down to talk religion with American cultural leaders…he went straight for the big questions."
—O, The Oprah Magazine
"Deeply moving, Do You Believe? is a truly compelling book, bound to become a classic."
"As an interviewer, Monda has a light touch and a penchant for asking direct existential questions in the European manner: 'Do you think images are replacing the written word?' 'Are you a pessimist or an optimist?' 'Comment on Dostoyevsky's assertion that 'If God doesn't exist, everything is permitted.' He's a vivid exemplar of Italy's baroque rhetorical culture, in which playfully meandering discussion is often prized over conclusions."
—The New York Times Book Review
"In a series of short, informal conversations, NYU film professor Monda cuts to the heart of a question that not only provides the title for the book, but that he believes provides the key to existence…. The book should prove revelatory to believers and atheists alike, and to anyone interested in the ways in which spirituality informs art and culture."
—Kirkus Reviews
"This is a thoughtful, provocative and concise volume."
—Publishers Weekly
"The premise here is simple and straightforward. Cultural critic Monda asked some of the big names in popular culture variations on two basic questions: Do you think God exists? and How has your answer affected your life choices? The responses are often surprising, even quite startling…. Provocative and entertaining."
"Entrancing from page one…. Each interview provides a wonderful insight into ideas that are widespread throughout the country…. This short collection is easy-to-read yet full of intellectual dialogue that will cause you to think if nothing else. I haven't been so intrigued by a book since college, and intend to buy a copy of Do You Believe? for many of my friends and relatives for Christmas."
"Monda…proves himself an adventurous and risk-taking dialog partner…. The discussion sends an empowering message to those raising preliminary questions about faith and is a touchstone for well-traveled souls. Monda's humble voice and his ability to engage interviewees in a dialog that is both insightful and sincere make this book especially accessible. He offers readers the beauty, excitement, and perplexity of the journey, giving them hope to work out their answers. "

I didn't delete your image, I just removed it from the article because it lacks a license and a fair use rationale. Read the image policy. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 03:54, September 5, 2010 (UTC)
Re: Dōjutsu
If you were able to figure out that I removed it, then you should also be able to figure out why (ie. my edit summary). ~SnapperTo 19:31, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
- I should clarify: there is nowhere on the wiki where that sort of discussion is suitable. ~SnapperTo 20:08, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
- Because you a) are not asking a question, and b) (and this is the important one) it will not benefit the wiki. Talk pages and the forums are for discussing ways to improve the wiki, not for discussing the topics the wiki covers. You can use your user page to present your ideas if you really want to. ~SnapperTo 20:21, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
- Given rumors that the Sharingan is descended from the Byakugan, I don't think your use of "File:Sharingan Triple.svg ↔ File:Byakugan.svg" is accurate. It should be "File:Byakugan.svg ↓ File:Sharingan Triple.svg". ~SnapperTo 20:37, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
SignatureI don't mean to be mean to you but I like to keep the template namespace for content templates. Could you move that template you made to User:Leodix/sig. Also this is longer than it needs to be
[[User:Leodix|'''Leodix''']] [[File:Akatsuki_Symbol.svg|20px]] [[User Talk:Leodix|'''Talk''']]could you change it to:
[[User:Leodix|'''Leodix''']] [[File:Akatsuki_Symbol.svg|20px]] [[User Talk:Leodix|'''Talk''']]it should have the same effect

- It appears there is something off with the code of your signature, as anything written after it in pages you signed are all styled like it. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:11, December 10, 2010 (UTC)
- Still needs fixing. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:52, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
You need to add a  to your signature code. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 19:06, January 30, 2011 (UTC)
Figured out how to keep your signature from changing everything after to its style. You just have to add some end span tags. Check my last edit to your signature here. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:51, February 8, 2011 (UTC)
- ^ Ignore me, I didn't see you changed your signature to something else already. If anything, if you want to change to the other style, you know how to keep if from changing everything below it now. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:53, February 8, 2011 (UTC)
Re: Moyagakure
I use a program called Inkscape for my svg files. As for the Moyagakure symbol: I will probably make it some day, but as far as I remember, it has never been said to be an actual village, so it has never been high on my priority list. —ShounenSuki (talk | contribs | translations) 22:42, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
- I'm actually working on a Moyagakure symbol right now. Although, again, I don't recall it ever being said to be an actual village.
- As for Shimogakure, I added that after taking all the facts I had and carefully deliberating with myself as to what was the best option. in chapter 515, the Kage look at a map that shows us Madara and Kabuto would need to travel through two countries in order to reach the Shinobi Allied Forces. The southern country is marked with 湯 (Yu, Hot Water), the northern country with 霧 (Kiri, Mist). As all other countries are marked with the names of their hidden villages, it is safe to assume these two countries are too. The Raikage's words further supports this, as he gives the order to evacuate Yugakure and Kirigakure.
- In chapter 517, we actually see the countries be evacuated. However, now the countries are suddenly named the Land of Hot Water and the Land of Frost. The Land of Hot Water brings no problems at all, obviously, but the Land of Frost does. After all, chapter 515 said it was Kirigakure that should be evacuated and that is in the Land of Water.
- However, it has been stated that Kirigakure was isolationist and that the Land of Water consisted of islands. Having territory on the mainland would seem to go against that. The kanji for mist and frost are also very similar, 霧 and 霜, so a mistake is very much likely. Hence why I assumed it had to be Shimogakure in chapter 515 and changed the map as I did. —ShounenSuki (talk | contribs | translations) 13:05, November 21, 2010 (UTC)
No idea. Raws are usually released through IRC channels, so I'd ask people who upload images taken directly from raws. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 19:28, November 22, 2010 (UTC)
- I don't think you're going to find a single place outside of peer-to-peer programs where you can find anything other than the latest chapters in Japanese. This site has the most recent chapters on-line and this site technically has links to all volumes in Japanese, but I'm not sure if they are all still working. The latter site is the only site I know of where you could even try and download the earlier chapters. —ShounenSuki (talk | contribs | translations) 00:48, November 23, 2010 (UTC)
Reasons for Summoning
Is there a reason why you came in and re-edited what I just did? My reasoning was clearly stated on the talk page

That functionality isn't enabled for this wiki, with or without the template. So you can't have a signature like that here. ~SnapperTo 07:21, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

Director Ridley Scott's sci-fi pic Prometheus opened early last month as one of the year's most anticipated films. Though some weren't exactly thrilled with the finished product, the amount of debate over the film's true meanings, unanswered questions, Alien connections, and common sense-impaired scientists has been immense and unending. The pic is set to hit Blu-ray later this year, at which point further debate is sure to ensue. An unofficial full list of extras included on the home video release have landed online, and just as Scott previously mentioned to Steve, they include a significant amount of deleted scenes.
In addition to 15 minutes of deleted or alternate scenes and the entirety of the film's viral material (including the full Peter Weyland TED Talk), the disc includes a text document of the first and final draft of the script by Damon Lindelof and Jon Spaihts. Hit the jump for much more, including details on a 9-disc collection of every Alien film up to and including Prometheus.
First off, here's a rundown of the highlights on the disc:
- 15 Minutes of Deleted or Alternate Scenes
- Ridley Scott Audio Commentary
- First and Final Draft of the Script in Text Document
- Four Viral Videos Including Peter Weyland's Full Ted Talk
- Ridley Scott's Sketches
- Noomi Rapace's Screen Tests
- 9 Featurettes Comprising 120 Minutes of Behind-the-Scenes Looks at the Creatures, Story, Visual Effects, and More
These extras come courtesy of an Amazon page for the French Evolution: From Alien to Prometheus box set (via Prometheus Forum), which includes the entire Alien saga on nine discs (just in case you never picked up that Alien Anthology Blu-ray set). It's important to note that this isn't an official listing, so some of these details may be incorrect or slightly off. Lindelof had previously mentioned something in an interview about recording an audio commentary, so it's possible that we could see a few more features on the US release. Moreover, Scott told Steve to expect closer to 20 or 30 minutes of deleted scenes, so we could see more on the actual release or on a further release sometime in the future.
It's well known that Prometheus began as a straight Alien prequel written by Jon Spaihts, and it wasn't until Damon Lindelof came in and did a significant rewrite that it became Prometheus: less of an Alien prequel and more of an original sci-fi story. The specific text says that the disc includes the "first and final draft of the script," but it's unknown if this means that it includes Spaihts first draft of the developing Alien prequel, or the first full draft of Prometheus that Lindelof submitted. It's rare for studios to release the actual first drafts of scripts, so I'd be surprised if this "first draft" is significantly different from what the final shooting draft of the script looks like. That said, I'd be absolutely thrilled to take a gander at what Spaihts originally came up with in order to compare this to the final product, so hopefully I'm wrong.
