This was week 32 for me on the Nutrisystem plan. This week was pretty uneventful! I did not do so well with my exercising . :(This week my plan is to walk every day.

World Series rematch highlights today's schedule
Capuano slated for Red Sox debut opposite Cardinals' Miller live on MLB.TV
It's been more than four months since the Red Sox and Cardinals faced each other for all the marbles. On Wednesday, the two World Series clubs will square off live on MLB.TV at 1:05 ET for the first time since Boston won Game 6.
Left-hander Chris Capuano will make his Red Sox debut, and top prospect Anthony Ranaudo, who was dominant in his first Grapefruit League start, also is scheduled to pitch. Shelby Miller gets the call for the Cardinals in his first start of the spring.
With all 30 Major League clubs in action, it's just one of many interesting matchups on Wednesday's slate.
Jayson Werth is set to make his spring debut when the Nationals face the Mets for a 1:05 ET contest that can be heard live on Gameday Audio. Gio Gonzalez also will make his first start of the Grapefruit League season.
Though Werth missed the first five games with a right biceps strain, Washington manager Matt Williams said Tuesday that the outfielder is "good to go."
Keeping it in the National League East, Braves right-hander Brandon Beachy gets the call against the Phillies in his second start of the spring. The game can be seen live on MLB.TV at 1:05 ET. Beachy is continuing to distance himself from elbow issues that limited him to just five starts last season.
"I'm just going to keep going out there and do what the training staff tells me to do," Beachy said. "I feel pretty confident in the way I've been feeling and the way I'm going to feel. I've got April and October in mind and not today."
Jose Fernandez, who recently was named the Marlins' Opening Day starter, will face the Mets in his second Grapefruit League start at 1:10 ET live on MLB.TV. Right-hander Dillon Gee will make his first start for New York.
Reigning American League Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer will get the start as the Tigers head to Kissimmee, Fla., to face the Astros at 1:05 ET live on MLB.TV. Scherzer gave up one run on one hit and struck out two in his first outing Friday against the Yankees. Ian Kinsler is expected to bat leadoff, with Victor Martinez hitting third and Alex Avila batting fourth.
Two staff aces will face off in a Cactus League matchup between the Angels and Giants. Jered Weaver will make his second start of the spring opposite right-hander Matt Cain, who will make his spring debut because of a rainout Saturday. The game can be seen live on MLB.TV at 3:05 ET.
Weaver pitched three scoreless innings against the Cubs in his spring debut, giving up one hit. Weaver faced the minimum in the first two innings, then notched a 1-2-3 third to finish his day.
"Obviously, that first start, you're a little nervous going into it, just because you don't know if location is going to be there or whatnot, but I felt good," Weaver said after the game. "I don't know how many pitches I threw, but I still felt like I had some more to go."
In the final game of the day, the Dodgers will travel to Goodyear, Ariz., to face the Reds live on MLB.TV at 9:05 ET. Hyun-Jin Ryu gets the nod for the Dodgers, while Homer Bailey will make his second start of the spring. Los Angeles manager Don Mattingly said Dee Gordon will get his first spring start in center field.

Top neighborhoods in South Lake Tahoe
Find out more about South Lake Tahoe
Right on the California and Nevada state lines; South Lake Tahoe is set amongst the dramatic Sierra Nevada mountain landscapes. Winter brings skiers and snowboarders to the area, with excellent ice-white powder and friendly resorts, and the summer sees people visit to enjoy the warm lake waters which shimmer under the sun and long, winding hiking trails. South Lake Tahoe is also well known for its nightlife, with live music, casinos, and lively bars to enjoy after dark.
Things to see
The Heavenly Ski Resort makes the most of the spectacular mountain and lake scenery, offering not only winter sports, but year round outdoor fun. During ski season there's a thick layer of powdery snow, and as you are whisked to the top in the gondola you'll enjoy views of the snowy mountains all around you. In the summer, the lifts are still open, with the 97 ski runs melting to make way for hiking and biking trails. Emerald Bay State Park is named for the greenish blue bay, and is a popular spot for hiking and exploring. Just under the water there are a number of shipwrecks, and if you choose to take a scuba diving tour you can find some of the sunken boats, with clear, warm waters to enjoy. El Dorado Beach has a long stretch of sand where you can soak up the sunshine, and it's a great place to swim with clear waters. You'll find boat hire places along the shore where you can rent kayaks, canoes, or paddle boats, or you could try riding a sup; a large surfboard with a paddle that's ideal for these calm waters.
Hotels in South Lake Tahoe
South Lake Tahoe hotels are often rustic and peaceful, offering a mountain escape away from modern life. You'll be able to enjoy cozy motel and inns with comfortable rooms, and modern facilities such as free WiFi. Many hotels in South Lake Tahoe offer free parking onsite, and a free continental breakfast to get you ready to hit the slopes or the beach. You'll find that accommodation close to the mountains often has ski-in/ski-out access, as well as other facilities that winter sports enthusiasts will enjoy such as ski storage, fireplaces in the lobby, and spa tubs. Some hotels have seasonal outdoor pools for the warmer months, and useful extras such as laundry services and childcare so you can enjoy a break.
Where to stay
South Lake Tahoe doesn't really have a centralized downtown area, yet it still has a friendly, small town atmosphere. The streets are lined with evergreens, and the town is surrounded by dramatic mountain landscapes, making it feel close to nature. Along the main roads you'll find strip malls, inns, and a wide selection of restaurants tempting you in, and there are many smaller roads leading off to campsites and rural spots. Heavenly Village is a popular place to stay, with a large complex of boutique stores, an ice rink, cinema, and plenty of other facilities. You could also consider staying in Stateline, a small town just over the Nevada border which is popular due to its large casinos and more liberal gaming laws, as well as the excellent evening entertainment these resorts provide.
How to get to South Lake Tahoe
Reno-Tahoe International Airport is just over an hour away from South Lake Tahoe, and this busy hub has services to major cities across the USA. There are several car rental desks, taxis, limos, and shuttle services to take you to South Lake Tahoe, with the South Tahoe Express offering a cheap and quick service. South Lake Tahoe has an Amtrak transit center, which connects you to the Amtrak California services and beyond.

I have scored an internship interview at IBM next week. I've been invited just yesterday so I have not had the time to buy a suit.
How should I dress?
I bought expensive black pants, and a long sleeve buttoned white shirt with subtle stripes. Shoes are lacking in style but they are brand new.
Do I have to wear a tie?
I've been looked down for overdressing in an interview once. So I'm being careful. Not entirely sure of IBM's dress code but I know companies like Google don't care much about how you dress, even for an interview.

Would you then argue the robot should be paid the same as a human competitor/musician?daib0 wrote:Reading this again, perhaps some are slightly missing the point.
You don't need to put Serena Williams against Novak Djokovic to determine whether the men are faster, more powerful etc. obviously it is a physiological fact. That doesn't, however, in any way denigrate what the women are doing. They are at the physical pinnacle of what can be achieved given their biological limitations as do the men for all their biological limitations.
Would you abandon the real Olympics for a robot version just because they can throw further, run faster etc? Or a robot instead of Lang Lang or Yehudi Menuhin because it can play faster/louder etc?
It's illogical to argue for gender equality in sport despite the obvious inequality in gender you've already acknowledged and discriminated against by having male and female events. You talk about biological limitations, but that varies from individual to individual regardless of sex. Not every man has the natural potential to play tennis like Djokovic, not every woman like Williams.
You may choose to reward men's and women's competitions the same for commercial or other reasons, but it's nonsense to do it for sexual equality because sport isn't about equality.

NEW YORK - Keith Olbermann is getting back into broadcasting to host TBS's postseason baseball studio show, staying away from politics for the moment.
Turner Sports said Wednesday that Olbermann will team with Hall of Fame pitcher Dennis Eckersley on its studio show during the baseball playoffs this October. It's a familiar role and corporate home for Olbermann, who hosted baseball postseason shows on NBC and Fox in the late 1990s and began his on-air career as a sports reporter for CNN, another Turner network.
"It's tremendous to be back in baseball," said Olbermann, who noted that he plays in two baseball fantasy leagues. His last sports job was to host a studio show before the NBC Sunday night football telecast.
Olbermann's last two politically oriented jobs ended poorly. He quit abruptly in January 2011 after eight years as a prime-time host at MSNBC, and his later tenure at Current TV lasted a year before he was taken off the air and responded with a lawsuit, settled out of court.
He said Wednesday that he wasn't making any predictions about whether he would get back into general news. He said he was open to pursuing other things besides the Turner baseball job, which will last about a month.
"Planning on it? No," he said. "Need to? Fortunately not."
He's generally acknowledged to be a smart and witty broadcaster, while off-screen battles with executives have kept him jumping to different jobs. He jokingly referenced his career path on a conference call by noting his "37-page resume."
"I use your resume to work out. It's very heavy," said David Levy, president of sales, distribution and sports for Turner.
Levy said Turner is looking for other broadcasters to join Olbermann and Eckersley in the studio. He would not discuss the length of Olbermann's contract but said of his studio team that "our goal is to have it last a long, long time."
The deal is just for Turner sports and does not encompass CNN, Levy said.
Olbermann said the studio job is a familiar role for him - even when he's not on the air.
"I do this anyway," he said. "Last postseason I did this in my home to the TV by myself."
Turner also announced that Cal Ripken Jr. will leave the studio to join a team of Ernie Johnson and Ron Darling broadcasting baseball division series and the National League Championship Series.

Its always fun to sit down with guests and chat as I illustrate them but at this event one of the guests shared with me that the only reason she came to the party was to get sketched by me! She's a fashion illustration fan and was eager to see the process of how my fashion illustrations takes shape. The Vogue summer interns were also attendees/fashion illustration models (two of the girls are shown in this post in their little black dresses.) Since this was their very last Vogue event of the summer before heading back to college, they each got a sketch of themselves as a nice little "end of internship keepsake." All in all in was another great of live sketching for Vogue.
For questions about my live-sketching or if you'd like rates for a corporate event or private party of your own, email me at email@example.com.

It�s springtime. Time to plant a garden!
Lori Bridges, a teacher with a 3-year-old classroom at New Hope Child Development Center in Gastonia is preparing for this year�s garden, which has been in place for four years. The garden consists of tomatoes, corn, cabbage, onions, green peppers, broccoli, beans, carrots and cucumber.
Each year, the center tries to do something new. Last year was squash, and this year they may add pumpkins so the garden can be enjoyed in the autumn. The 185 children enrolled at the center love watching the seeds grow in the garden. They also enjoy having the corn at snack time.
�We�ve always wanted to plant seeds and wanted the children to see the seeds sprout, watch it grow and see what happens,� Bridges said.
The children don�t mind getting dirty. They enjoy helping to plant and water. Sometimes they even get to take home the vegetables to their families. There is also a rose bush and marigolds, which are planted around the vegetables to help with bugs and insects. Bridges said the garden teaches the children a lesson on gardening.
�If they learn how to do it now, they will know it forever,� she said.
Some days, the children walk out to the garden in the mornings to see the progress overnight. She said they get very excited. Want to start a garden for your children? Here are some benefits:
* It�s a pathway for better health right outside your door. Children are learning to eat fruit and vegetables early. This is a step toward healthy eating.
* It�s therapeutic. Gardening can help relax children when they work in the soil.
* To eat something you produce is a worthwhile and meaningful thing.
* Gardening teaches a child garden etiquette, such as where to walk on the soil. Later, they can learn the consequences of good or poor care of watering, weeding and cultivating.

So Matt and I were doing some research on the City Museum and the story behind it is also really interesting. Bob Cassilly is the artist/"serial entrepreneur" who's behind it, who also, probably not coincidentally, created our other favorite thing in St. Louis, Turtle Park. Anyway, he and his former wife bought the old St. Louis Shoe Factory for 69 cents a square foot and created the City Museum in it. Matt tells me that originally, it was a non-profit, and the wife was president of the board. Later, however, Cassilly insisted on buying the building back from the board to make it a for-profit enterprise, and his wife was forced out of the business and they divorced and all kinds of scandal.
You know, though, this might be a little Green Party of me, but I think the idea of a for-profit museum, as long as it doesn't go all McDonald's/Disney World, is fine. Cassilly is clearly, after seeing the City Museum, a creative genius, and not only might a board of directors stifle some of his artistic decisions ("You want to stick an old plane where?!!! And let people climb on it?!!!"), but the museum seems to have an ethical system that's both eco-friendly and local, it's not crazy expensive to visit (although it is sort of non-crazy expensive), and hell, brilliant artists deserve to make good money.Check out this great article on Terrain about the City Museum--Through the Dragon's Mouth. I found it really insightful, both in the philosophies behind the museum that the author uncovered and in her observations about how adults and children interact there. I wonder if I'm so drawn to the place because it's perhaps the first public place I've visited that seems to share my own guiding beliefs.
Oh my gawd, y'all--the City Museum is my church!

The word "research" as in "genealogical research" is often used so broadly as to almost have no meaning. I am going to discuss the topic and put the concept of research into a little better focus. In a more narrow and practical sense, research involves searching for information or data that is presently unknown to you. You might use the term research for looking up the price of a store item online. You say, the price is the unknown, my search online is research. In the genealogical context, I don't know my great-grandfather's name, I search online and find his name, that is research. I would disagree and would like to bring he concept of research a little further from simply looking up information you suspect is already there. You probably would not go looking online for the price of a computer if you didn't already know that the stores listed their prices online. Looking for your great-grandfather's name is not exactly the same as looking for a price online, but it can be about the same. What if your grandparents are still alive? Is looking for your great-grandfather's name online still research?
If you were going to do research for a Ph.D degree, you would have to demonstrate that what you were researching had not already been done before. I am not advocating that doing genealogy is like getting an advanced university degree, but I think the term "research" should at least be limited to apply to those situations where you are discovering information that was not easily obtainable or generally known.
Before you can do "research" you have to know what is already known and have a good idea of what is not known. When I use the term, I understand research to pertain only to the unknown, not the known. Finding out what is known is part of the research process but it is not research. In genealogy we talk about doing a survey before beginning to do research. I find many genealogists are stuck in the survey stage of the genealogy process and have never made it to doing research. What is tragic is that they don't know they haven't made it out of the survey process and think they are doing research.
I don't want to minimize the difficulty of the survey step in the research process. It is not easy to find out what has been done. Before computers, I spent more than ten years off and on in the Salt Lake Family History Library before I had a reasonable idea of what work had been done on my family and before I could even start to do what I considered to be research. As they say, your results might be different. You might run out to the end zone of the survey step in a very short time. On the other hand, you may wrongly THINK you have finished the survey and not have the slightest clue as to the extent of the genealogical research done on your family.
Upon reflection, completing an adequate survey of the information readily available on your family could even be harder than it was years ago because of the proliferation of places to look. For an example, when I did my initial survey, I had no way to determine if there were any surname books available about my family. In fact, I was only vaguely aware that there might be more surname books than the two or three I had in my own library. Years into my initial survey, I found several other books about my family that I had no idea existed. I recently found a reference to another book that shows up in one library in Florida and is not available on Interlibrary loan. Unfortunately, the book is listed online at more than $100 and I am not sure that any of the booksellers actually have a copy or are just fishing for sales. But the fact that I know the book exists wouldn't have even been possible before the Internet.
The key to knowing when the survey step is over is contained in the phrase "reasonably exhaustive" which I borrow from the Genealogical Proof Standard. An exhaustive search will review every possible source tempered by the modifier "reasonable" that means you will not have to go to the ends of the earth, just to as many places as you can afford. How do I know what is reasonable? If your ancestors came from New England, the word "reasonable" would have an entirely different meaning than if they came from Eastern Europe in the last ten years.
How will I know when I am moving on from the survey stage to doing research? The easiest answer is when you stop finding information about your family in secondary sources and online family trees. I really do need to diverge here a little and point out that finding an online family tree that takes your family back generations without specific supporting source documentation is a trap. There is always the remote possibility that the information is accurate, but lack of source citations is a clear indication of lack of support for claimed relationships. I have posted about this problem before, but it bears repeating that absent source citations, there is not any way to substantiate or believe a user contributed family tree.
Back to the issue of coming to the end of a genealogical survey. Research is a process not a destination. At any moment you may find information about your family that puts you back in the survey stage. Too many researchers find a "new ancestor or ancestral line" and take off copying out the information without redoing the survey with the added information. Once you have made a connection with the new family line, you should immediately go back to looking for what might have already been documented about the new (to you) family members.
Let's start with the assumption that you know nothing at all about your family except your parents' names (and you might not know that much). Almost ever guide ever written about genealogy will tell you to start with your own records and those available from family members. I am not going to worry about the situation where you don't know either of your parents right now, your research may start immediately. In the first case, a reasonable search included asking relatives for names and identifying information. In our electronic age, a survey may also included doing a reasonably exhaustive search on the Internet. If you don't know where to start, start with any of the websites, including the FamilySearch Research Wiki, that give you instructions on where to look for your ancestors.
At some point, you are going to realize that you have looked at everything you have in your personal documents. When you are satisfied that you have looked in all of the places you
reasonably expect to find documents or source material, then you may be
ready to start the research phase of your search.You will know you are into the research phase when you stop finding information that is already available from some other member of your family.

iirc that's by design as a means to clear the rating and anything done on the 'average' version is going to be applied to all instances of the tracks.
there is probably an option on the rating settings (on one of the library preference pages) that allows for that behaviour not to happen.
and it's just Winamp not liking ratings and it does everything it can to remove / destroy them

I have this problem since windows 10 upgrade that using "F1" and "F2" as keybinds for changing songs in winamp does not work while another program is active even though the active program does not use the keys. Did not have this problem in Windows 7, what im thinking is that the keybind priority for "F1-F12" keys are prioritized differently in windows 10. Is there a way to configurate a program to always have priority on certain keybinds?

But if i want to put music from the same winamp all the tracks goes to the end of the playlist... and i dont want to do that. I want to put in a specific order.
Now... sometimes, i can drop music with zero problems from explorer to playlist... I dont understand that behavior.. and I think, this is a bug... sometimes you can drag music from explorer sometimes you dont..

By default, files are added to the end of the Playlist Editor's playlist. If you installed the 'Jump to File Extra' (JTFE) plug-in, then you can select the 'General Preferences - File Types - Shell Options' option to have the files inserted after the currently playing (or selected) file in the playlist instead.
In addition, you can also chose to have the files added to the JTFE Queue instead of the Playlist Editor's playlist. Files can added to the start or end of the queue. Then you can use the JTFE Queue Manager window to further rearrange the files (if you want) and add the files to the Playlist Editor's playlist for playback or play them directly from the JTFE Queue Manager window. If you use the JTFE Queue Manager to play the files, there are several options to control what happens after the files are played (e.g. stop, resume playback in the Playlist Editor's playlist, shutdown, etc.)
The Windows OS controls the listed order of the group of files dragged to Winamp. Many people think this is a Winamp bug, but it's not. You have limited control of this grouping that depends on how the files in the group were selected (the files selected first and last in a consecutive group <Shift + click> and/or the order of files selected separately <Ctrl + click>) and the particular file in the final grouping that is clicked on to drag the group (first, last, or other). Windows Explorer also provides other ways to select files (i.e. draw a 'selection box' around the files or enable the option that puts a selection check-box next to each file). Experiment and note the results. Sometimes you just have to rearrange things after the transfer (e.g. drag within the playlist or queue).

Hi! thanks men, but what kind of question is that?.. Of course i use normaly my cumputer, since 20 years ago!. What order you talking about?. I said sometimes I can drag and drop files to the playlist and sometimes i cant do it!.
No , i dont have JTFE plug in installed. So that is not the problem.
I know that windows controls the listed order of the gruop of files, and no.. i have the control of the files (even i said that I am the admin, and i have windows 10 pro!)... So, sometimes I can drag and drop, and sometimes no. So, yes.. this is another problem and is a bug, an error! something is wrong.
What do you think?
tnks 4 the answer...

I didn't say the JTFE plug-in was the problem or a problem. I said the plug-in allows for different ways for files to be added to Winamp (the playlist or queue) when you drag & drop, other than them ending up at the bottom of the playlist in the Playlist Editor.
I also tried to explain why when you select and drag files A + B + C as a group, they may end up listed as C + A + B or in some other order.
I'm sorry my reply was confusing (maybe I'm over-complicating things trying to guess what may be causing your issue). I seldom use drag & drop, but it always works when I do. I normally use the right click context menu commands to enqueue or enqueue & play, since this method is faster and eliminates potential drag & drop handling errors. The 'enqueue & play' context menu command is another benefit of the JTFE plug-in. The default context menu commands either let you add to the playlist (enqueue) or replace what's in the playlist with the added files (play).

Winamp slow playback
I use Winamp 5.8 beta.
I noticed that some mp3 songs play rather slowly.
The latest stable release is identical.
Please fix.

GOOGLE PLUS HANGOUT TONIGHT @ 10pm EST
Alex Koloskov & Dave Nitsche have been hosting a weekly google hangout. This will be the 6th one. It starts at 10pm EST. Tonight we're going to discuss an assignment we were given to photograph a red wine bottle. That was the main subject and the rest was up to our imagination. There are some great photos so far and it will interesting to hear about the shots and how they were made.
Have you ever been to Chicago? Or maybe you've seen a ton of photos of the 'Bean' that is heavily photographed here. I have to admit I've taken my share of photos of the Bean as well.
Just a stone throw away, or possibly a lob away, is this stage. They play live music here and from what I know it's free. You can just bring a picnic, and hang out with friends and listen to great music.
The area is called Millennium Park which is home to not only this stage and the Bean, but a botanical garden and a couple giant square columns that have screens that display peoples faces. During the summer they spray water from those columns typically from the mouths of the people on the screen.
Do you have any interesting photos of Chicago you'd like to share? Make sure to leave links in your comments for us all to check them out.
If your interested in following me on Twitter you can either click on the link below or go to twitter and click on follow. I'm now also on Google Plus which is a great new platform. Are you on Facebook? If so please 'like' the Maugiart Photography Page.Follow @wordpressdotcom

May as well be hanged for a sheep as for a lamb.
Posted by Smokey Stover on September 23, 2003
In Reply to: May as well be hanged for a sheep as for a lamb. posted by GPP on September 23, 2003
: : Perhaps this is better known, or appears in the thesaurus, in some other form. I'm not sure what it means precisely. In olden times sheep were considered more valuable than goats. But I don't see how that matters.
: "The phrase 'Hung for a sheep, hung for a goat' appeared recently in a Los Angeles weekly. Aside from the fact that it ought to be hanged not hung, it clearly meant from the context 'damned if you do, damned if you don't'. But what is the origin of this expression?"
: The writer had his proverbs a bit mixed. The older phrasing is "As well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb", or in more modern terms "One might as well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb". It refers to a time in England-less than 200 years ago-when the penalty for any theft of livestock was execution by hanging. If the penalty is the same in either case, you might as well steal a full-grown sheep as the smaller lamb. So it doesn't mean what the writer thought it means, but rather that there's no point in half measures: if you're going to do something, go the whole way or do it in full.
Thanks, GPP, that's exactly what I wanted to know, although I have only seen the expression with the word goat, not lamb.

The West End production of LES MISERABLES just welcomed some new cast members, including Broadway veteran Sierra Boggess as 'Fantine', as well as 'Over the Rainbow' winner Danielle Hope as 'Eponine.' Additional current cast members include: Geronimo Rauch, Tam Mutu, Cameron Blakely, Linzi Hateley, Samantha Dorsey, Liam Tamne, and Craig Mather. Check out just-released shots of the cast in action below!
As well as celebrating its 25th Birthday in October 2010, the legendary musical "LES MISÉRABLES" made theatrical history with an international first - three different productions playing in London simultaneously. The Original Production at the Queen's Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue, the acclaimed New 25th Anniversary Production at the Barbican (where the show originally premiered in 1985) and the celebratory concert at The O2.
The score of "LES MISÉRABLES" includes the songs, "I Dreamed a Dream", "On My Own", "Stars", "Bring Him Home", "Do You Hear the People Sing?", "One Day More", "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables", "Master Of The House" and many more.
"LES MISÉRABLES" originally opened in London at the Barbican Theatre on 8 October 1985, transferred to the Palace Theatre on 4 December 1985 and moved to its current home at the Queen's Theatre on 3 April 2004. When "LES MISÉRABLES" celebrated its 21st London birthday on 8 October 2006, it became the World's Longest Running Musical, surpassing the record previously held by "Cats" in London's West End. In January 2010, the West End production broke another record by celebrating its historic 10,000th performance.
Seen by nearly 60 million people worldwide in 42 countries and in 21 languages, "LES MISÉRABLES" is undisputedly one of the world's most popular musicals ever written, with new productions continually opening around the globe, with seven more currently scheduled. There have been 36 cast recordings of "LES MISÉRABLES", including the multi-platinum London cast recording, the Grammy Award-winning Broadway cast and complete symphonic albums and the recently released live recording of the New 25th Anniversary Production. The video of the 10th Anniversary Royal Albert Hall Gala Concert has sold millions of copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling musical videos ever in the UK. There are over 2,500 productions of the Les Misérables School's Edition scheduled or being performed by over 125,000 school children in the UK, US and Australia, making it the most successful musical ever produced in schools. Cameron Mackintosh is currently developing a film of "LES MISÉRABLES" with Eric Fellner and Tim Bevan of Working Title and Universal Studios.
Cameron Mackintosh's production of "LES MISÉRABLES" is written by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg and is based on the novel by Victor Hugo. It has music by Claude-Michel Schönberg, lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer and original French text by Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel and additional material by James Fenton. The original London 1985 production of "LES MISÉRABLES" was adapted and directed by Trevor Nunn and John Caird.

Posted on 08.08.2011 - 12:00 EDT in SURVEY NEWS by Rons_ROV_Links
Trimble announced today its new high-accuracy Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) correction technology, Trimble RTX technology. Trimble RTX (Real-Time Extended) combines real-time data with innovative positioning and compression algorithms to deliver better than 4 centimeter (1.5 inch) repeatable accuracy with as little as one minute convergence in selected areas. The new technology utilizes real-time data from a global reference station infrastructure to compute centimeter level positions based on satellite orbit and clock information. Trimble RTX powers the new Trimble CenterPoint RTX correction service.
Trimble pioneered RTK technology in the early 1990s, which enabled high-accuracy corrections for field applications. RTK is now recognized as the industry leading technology for centimeter-level positioning. To further improve accuracy, Trimble introduced VRS technology in 2000 and subsequently the Trimble VRS Now service. And now, Trimble continues to lead in technology innovation with the introduction of Trimble RTX technology.
Trimble RTX Technology
The patent-pending Trimble RTX technology provides high-accuracy GNSS positioning without the use of traditional reference station-based differential RTK infrastructure. While standard autonomous GNSS position solutions provide accuracies in the 1 meter range, Trimble RTX can achieve better than 4 centimeter (1.5 inch) accuracies in real time.
In addition to accuracy, in select areas, Trimble RTX can deliver a convergence time of less than one minute, enabling work to start immediately. And Trimble RTX can bridge interruptions in the GNSS signals for up to 2 minutes, avoiding reconvergence delays, while maintaining the same superior accuracy performance.
The new Trimble CenterPoint RTX correction service pairs the RTX positioning innovations with convenient, easy to access satellite delivery, eliminating the need for cellular coverage and data plans traditionally required to obtain high performance positions. The GNSS-enabled service will be available initially in central North America for select Trimble receivers.
"With the release of Trimble RTX technology and CenterPoint RTX service, we continue to demonstrate our leadership in technology innovation," said Patricia Boothe, general manager of Trimble's Positioning Services Division. "In addition, this represents the first collaboration between Trimble's positioning technology team and the satellite delivery capabilities behind the recently acquired OmniSTAR services. Trimble is committed to offering a suite of correction technologies and services that can satisfy any accuracy, delivery and financial requirement, across a variety of applications and markets including agriculture, survey, mapping and GIS, and construction."

Chinese Leaders and WRI Experts Share Knowledge on Low-Carbon Developmentby -
China and the United States have a lot in common. China's rapid economic development and America's industry have turned the two nations into world's largest energy users, as well as the biggest emitters of carbon dioxide. So it's fitting that experts from these two countries share ideas on how to grow their economies in ways that also protect the environment.
That's exactly what happened this week when WRI hosted a high-level Chinese delegation in Washington, D.C. The event was part of a larger study tour organized by MIT, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and the Organization Department of the Communist Party of China. More than 20 representatives from Chinese research institutions and central and local government gathered to learn about low-carbon development strategies and policies, with WRI serving as one of the tour's first stops.
"I spent a great deal of time in China, and I believe very strongly that we have as much or more to learn from you as you have to learn from us," said WRI's president, Andrew Steer, to the Chinese delegation. "We all know that energy—especially the low-carbon economy—is a very hot topic for our world today," Zhang Tong, Deputy Governor of China's Hubei Province, said at the WRI event. "The purpose for our visit is to learn from the United States' experiences with low-carbon development and the energy industry. At the same time, we would like to share our experiences with these concepts as a developing country."
Learning About Low-Carbon Development
Several of WRI's experts shared their expertise in low-carbon development. Attendees learned about WRI's Aqueduct tool, an online platform that helps businesses understand water risks globally and in specific river basins, like China's Yellow River. They heard from members of WRI's climate team, who discussed the state of U.S. climate policy as well as shale gas development, which has a heavy and growing presence in both America and China. Delegates also learned about how sustainable transportation like bus rapid transit (BRT) systems can curb carbon emissions, spur economic growth, and create healthier, more livable cities.
"We are honored to have you here today," Xiaomei Tan, Deputy Director of WRI's China office, said to the delegates. "This is an opportunity for mutual learning and to foster a greater understanding of low carbon development."
Many Chinese leaders expressed a particularly keen interest in learning more about America's recent history with shale gas development. WRI has been expanding its analytical work around shale gas in the United States and China. Sarah Forbes, a senior associate at WRI who recently testified before Congress about China's growing shale gas industry, shared her observations. She said that shale gas development in the United States has been increasing, but it has had both positive and negative impacts on local communities.
Future Sustainability Work in China
This study tour provides an opportunity for Chinese delegates to evaluate low-carbon options and craft their own approaches. As Zhang Tong noted at the event, China is moving to enact strong carbon intensity targets. For instance, its 12th five-year plan calls for significant action to address its greenhouse gas emissions and other energy challenges. The country's goal is to cut its energy intensity by 16 percent and reduce carbon intensity by 17 percent by 2015. At the same time, China represents world's second-largest economy, and its population exceeds 1.3 billion. Strategic approaches to low-carbon development, like those discussed at our event, will be necessary to ensure that China follows an environmentally and economically sustainable growth path.
To that end, the recent WRI event is part of an ongoing dialogue with Chinese officials and policymakers. WRI is actively working at both national and regional levels on sustainable cities, greenhouse gas accounting, clean water, transportation and other projects in China, with plans to expand our activities into the future.
"You are all in increasingly important positions in China and in the world," Manish Bapna, WRI's managing director, said to delegates at the end of the event. "We hope that we can provide support and guidance to you as you tackle the challenges that are important to the world. We hope that this is just the start of the conversation."
And indeed it was. After the event concluded, the Chinese delegation headed out for dinner with a few WRI staff members to do just that.

So what books did I like this year? It was a tough call, considering that I've read so many different genres and discovered new authors this year. Nevertheless, I've narrowed my favorite reads to 10. Here they are (in no particular order):
- Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned by Wells Tower: This fascinating collection of short stories will leave you wanting for more. Tower's debut collection features a cast of misfits in modern-day America in very unusual scenarios. I'm not a short story reader myself, but EREB left me satisfied.
- Asterios Polyp by David Mazzucchelli: The best graphic novel that I've ever read. Mazzucchelli's work touches on several themes such as architecture, Greek mythology, and music
- Jeff in Venice, Death in Varanasi by Geoff Dyer: Dyer's novel art and love is one very memorable read. It's actually two novels in one.
- Monsters of Men by Patrick Ness: Ness's brilliant young adult trilogy, Chaos Walking, makes other YA novels seem amateurish. The best in the trilogy is this book.
- The Neverending Story by Michael Ende: I love the movie, but I love this book more!
- Skippy Dies by Paul Murray: Murray's Booker longlisted novel is the funniest novel I've read this year which is set in a prep school in Ireland.
- The Monk by Matthew Lewis: This is the first book I've read this year. It has also become my favorite Gothic novel.
- Born Round by Frank Bruni: Reading this memoir by Bruni, the New York Times restaurant critic, made me realize how difficult it is to review restaurants. I don't know how I'll manage to eat 3 dinners in a day!
- Service Included by Phoebe Damrosch: This brilliant memoir by a former captain in one of New York's finest restaurants is not to be missed. What is it about books and food that make them go well together?
- The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot: This book appealed to the science geek in me.
- 2 contemporary novels
- 1 classic novel
- 2 young adult novels
- 1 graphic novel
- 1 short story collection
- 2 biographies
- 1 science non-fiction book

Harrison Ford has sported Indiana Jones' trademark fedora in four big screen blockbusters – and the 67-year-old actor said he'd love to play the iconic character a fifth time.
"George [Lucas] is working on the structure of a possible idea," Harrison told Access Hollywood on Friday at the "Extraordinary Measures" junket in LA. "If he's able to come up with something, George, Steven [Spielberg,] and I have to agree in order to do it."
According to Harrison, he'd be more than happy to suit up for another globe trekking adventure.
"I'd love to do it," he continued "I'd love to see the development of the relationship between he and his son (Shia LaBeouf) and he and his new wife (Karen Allen). I think it would be very interesting…I think it would be fun."
But first, audiences will see Harrison and Brendan Fraser in the medical drama "Extraordinary Measures," which hits theaters on January 22.

LONDON (Reuters) - Prime Minister David Cameron's former media chief Andy Coulson and Rebekah Brooks, the former boss of Rupert Murdoch's British newspaper business, were charged on Tuesday with conspiring to make illegal payments to officials for information for stories.
The charges against the pair, who were both close to Cameron, relate to their former roles as editors of the Murdoch-owned News of the World Sunday tabloid and its sister daily paper the Sun.
Prosecutors accuse Coulson of conspiring to obtain private information about Britain's royal family, while Brooks was charged over payments of 100,000 pounds ($160,100) to a civil servant from the Ministry of Defence to garner details for news stories.
The decision to charge them is a blow to the reputation of Cameron, who has been forced to defend his hiring of Coulson since a phone-hacking scandal exploded last year at the now-closed News of the World.
Critics say Cameron - who meets Queen Elizabeth once a week - ignored warnings about Coulson's reputation to appoint him to shape his media strategy to connect better with ordinary voters.
The charge against Brooks, whose friendly texts and emails to Cameron were laid bare at a public inquiry into press standards, compounds the embarrassment for him.
Asked if hiring Coulson and being so close to Brooks reflected badly on his judgment, Cameron said: "I have made it clear (my) regret on many occasions on this issue.
"I have also said very clearly that we should allow the police and prosecuting authorities to follow the evidence wherever it leads, I think that is very important," he told reporters during a visit to Northern Ireland.
Since resigning from his Downing Street post in 2011, Coulson has been charged with conspiracy to hack into phone messages and perjury, possible first steps to what would be politically charged court cases.
He said in a statement he would fight the latest charges in court. Lawyers for Brooks, 44, were not immediately available to comment but she has previously denied any wrongdoing.
They were both bailed to appear at Westminster Magistrates Court on November 29.
Like Coulson, Brooks, a former editor of the News of the World and the daily Sun tabloid, has already been charged with conspiring to hack into phones.
She has also been charged with attempts to pervert the course of justice, after years in which she was courted by prime ministers from Labour's Tony Blair to Conservative Cameron as the boss of hugely popular and influential newspapers.
"This is a man (Cameron) with a red face over Coulson that is now turning from crimson to scarlet," Roy Greenslade, author of several books on the British press and a former senior editor at the Sun, told Reuters.
The string of accusations have marked the fall from grace for two of Britain's most connected media executives, and have damaged not only Cameron but their former boss Murdoch.
The new charges stem from a wider investigation into the British press initiated by disclosures that journalists at the News of the World had hacked into phone messages on an industrial scale.
Facing a public backlash, Murdoch closed the mass-selling Sunday title last year and formed an internal committee to cooperate with the police.
In a worrying development for the rest of Murdoch's British business, prosecutors also charged, for the first time, an employee of the Sun. John Kay, the paper's chief reporter from 1990 to 2011, declined to comment.
Prosecutors said they would also charge the former Royal correspondent of the News of the World, Clive Goodman, for conspiring to pay public officials for the so-called "Green Book" of Royal contact details.
"We have concluded, following a careful review of the evidence, that Clive Goodman and Andy Coulson should be charged with two conspiracies," senior prosecutor Alison Levitt said.
A spokesman for the Royal Family and a spokeswoman for Murdoch's British newspaper arm, News International, declined to comment.
Police have arrested 52 people in connection with making payments to public officials, including numerous staff from the Sun, the police and a member of the armed forces.

The Philadelphia Union selected Jamaican goalkeeper Andre Blake with the first pick of the MLS SuperDraft on January 16, 2014.
PHILADELPHIA --- Andre Blake is over the moon after becoming the first choice in the 2014 Major League Soccer (MLS) SuperDraft at the Philadelphia Convention Center on Thursday.
The 23-year-old became the first goalkeeper and Jamaican in MLS history to be taken in the top spot, when the Philadelphia Union announced their decision.
The 6-foot, 4-inch netminder, who played at the University of Connecticut for the last three years, said that he wants to repay all those who have helped and believed in him on his journey.
"It is my hope to become the best professional I can be, while being an ambassador for Jamaica on an off the field," he said. "I truly feel blessed.
"I would like to thank my youth coaches in Jamaica, the JFF, Ray Reid, Pro Goals Sports (my agents) for assisting me along the way and of course the MLS/Adidas for providing me with this fantastic opportunity to start a professional football career."
The player's agent, Romel Wallen of Pro Goals Sports, noted that Blake's success was the result of "hard work and consistent dedication."
"His number one pick is historic in the context of the MLS," said Wallen. "As a result, we are sincerely proud to be a part of a quality young man realizing his professional dream."
Blake has represented Jamaica internationally at the under-17 and under-20 levels, and, more recently, as the recognized third-string goalkeeper during the nation's qualifying campaign for Brazil 2014.
In Thursday's first phase of the draft, two other Jamaicans were taken in the top 10 --- 19-year-old midfielder Andre Lewis at number seven by the Vancouver Whitecaps and 20-year-old defender Damion Lowe at number eight for the Seattle Sounders.
Lowe, the son of former Jamaican international Onandi, said his move up the professional ranks is "a dream come true."
"Words can't explain how I feel right now because I've made a lot of people proud," Lowe expressed. "In my life, I've been through ups and downs. I come from a place where not many people become successful or fulfill their dreams.
"I'm just glad for this great opportunity and I'm looking forward to great things in Seattle."
A fourth Jamaican in the draft, Romena Bowie, was not selected either of the opening two rounds. The Virginia Commonwealth University midfielder, however, will have another opportunity when the third and fourth rounds are conducted on Tuesday via conference call.

The Winter Olympics are taking center stage and while you won't be in Sochi to cheer on Team USA, you can create your own Olympic experience. Splash Magazines Worldwide has put together a list of the best ways to enjoy the Olympics without actually being there.
Athletes know that one thing is more important than anything else, hydration. While Olympic athletes always have to be properly hydrated, it is important for every walk of life, whether you are training or just getting up to start a new day. SOS Rehydrate has created a healthy way to hydrate as well as making it easy to use as you can pour the SOS Rehydrate power into a water bottle and off you go. Amazingly SOS Rehydrate is comparable to an IV Drip, the blueberry powder mix combines the right balance of electrolytes with no artificial sweeteners, preservatives, flavors or colors. If you want to make sure you are always hydrated and you don't want all of the unhealthy ingredients that so many sports drinks contain, turn to SOS Rehydrate and enjoy all of the healthy natural flavor! For more information visit SOS Rehydrate.
Even Olympic athletes crave a snack once in a while and choosing properly is always on their mind. Yogen Früz has created a new frozen yogurt flavor that will satisfy any sweet tooth without making you feel to guilty. Yogen Früz recently introduced Caramel Latte, a low-fat twist of a latte that is creamy and rich while also being kosher and gluten-free that is also a natural source of protein, calcium, and contains probiotics. Yogen Früz is just about the perfect snack to take of that craving while still allowing you to live a healthy and active lifestyle! For more information visit Yogen Fruz.

Edson Buddle has left Major League Soccer. What at first seemed like a thin, spurious connection was affirmed on Monday, with 2. Bundesliga's 17th place Inglostadt signing the now former Los Angeles Galaxy striker.
On this edition of the Major League Soccer Talk podcast, myself and co-host Christopher Riordan talk about the whys, hows and what nows of Buddle's departure – how it impacts league, club, national team, and us. Eventually we transition to a topic neither of us are experts on: SuperDraft, to be held Thursday in Baltimore.

Lansing May End Relationship With Russian City
Lansing is considering ending its "sister cities" relationship with the Russian city of St. Petersburg due to anti-gay policies in Russia.
The Lansing State Journal and MLive.com report Lansing City Council discussed the issue Monday night and plans to take up a resolution soon.
The Lansing Regional Sister Cities Commission says the city's relationship with one district of St. Petersburg formally began in 1994 with a youth exchange program but fell dormant after political and geographic districts of St. Petersburg were changed several years ago.
Russia's parliament passed a law banning "gay propaganda" in June. St. Petersburg was one of several cities to pass similar laws at local level before that.
Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero says Russia's anti-gay policies are "abhorrent" but says diplomacy should be tried before severing ties.

What's the best way to set up a consultation or an appointment with an electrician during the COVID-19 pandemic?
To set up an appointment or consultation with an electrician during the COVID-19 pandemic, ensure that you are performing as much of the process digitally as possible. The best way to begin is by conducting an online search for local electricians. Ask if they can perform consultations over a phone or video call to comply with social distancing mandates. You should also discuss a strategy for how to complete the project during social distancing or whether the project should be completed once the pandemic has ended.
How can I find out if an electrician is considered an essential COVID-19 service provider?
Guidelines are available from both local and federal government agencies to clarify which services qualify as essential during the COVID-19 pandemic. To determine whether an electrician is considered an essential service provider in your area, check your city or state's government websites.
For federal guidelines, consult CISA's Identifying Critical Infrastructure During COVID-19 page, which outlines 16 critical infrastructure sectors. But not that some, not all, jurisdictions follow CISA's definitions of critical infrastructure.
Are there ways to be safe if I hire an electrician when social distancing?
If you decide to hire an electrician, choose virtual platforms for consultations like calling or video chats. Avoid any physical contact with the electrician, wave instead of shaking hands, stay 6 feet away, sanitize shared surfaces and use digital payment apps instead of cash.
Can I use digital payments to pay for electrical and wiring repair?
These days, many electricians will accept digital payments for electrical work and wiring repair instead of traditional cash or check. The COVID-19 pandemic has helped speed up the adoption of platforms like PayPal, Zelle, Square Cash, Venmo, Google Pay and others as a means of complying with social distancing guidelines.
As you search for electricians online, ask whether they'll accept digital payment and set up a strategy for staying safe.
Does an electrician need to enter my home?
Whether an electrician needs to enter your home depends on the type of work that needs to be completed. Any work on receptacles, lights and more located on the inside or outside of your house will likely require an electrician to enter your home.
Ask electricians in your area to perform a video consultation instead of a traditional walk-through to assess the project. During the consultation, they should be able to tell you if they'll need to enter your home or not.
Do electricians offer remote or virtual services?
While electrical work is typically performed in person, you may come across some electrician profiles that state the pro is offering remote services. If you do, contact local electricians to discuss your particular project and what type of remote services they may offer.

DAVID (WARK) GRIFFITH (American) (1875 – 1948)
Film director.
A stage actor and aspiring playwright who entered the cinema in 1908, Griffith is generally acknowledged as the father of the cinema, the man who invented everything from cross cutting to the close-up. Though rival claims may be pressed – for Louis Feuillade and Benjamin Christenan, among others – the fact remains that Griffith, with his unbounded ambition and taste for grandeur, did more than any one else to make the cinema realise its own potential. His two more famous films 'Intolerance' (1916) and 'Birth of a Nation' (1915), still stun with their epic scale, fantastic set pieces and almost biblically lofty sentiments. It is a pity that the inspirational claims of these masterworks have tended to overshadow the more endearing merits of the small, unassuming sagas of rural America such as 'True Heart Susie'. Here, inimitable Griffith preserved an age of lost innocence, a world of white fenced houses and sunlit orchards where ragged youths and demure maidens with rose bud lips dreamed their dreams of pure romance.

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
I fixed an issue of the DateTool dimension I presented in a previous post. The DateTool was unusable on OWC 11, which is the component used by BI Dev Studio and SQL Server Management Studio to browse a cube. I only added two statements in MDX Script that assign the original value when a selection of all years / all months is made. It seems that OWC 11 defines what members will be shown in the pivot table with a different technique than the one used by Excel 2007. The new version of the DateTool is 0.6.0.0 and is downloadable here.
Thanks for this. I am an SSAS newbie but was able to get everything working with one exception. I cannot work out how to get the Date Tool columns to sort by the keys rather than the alphabetic descriptions. I saw you had your example sorted by key., but after I reprocessed the dimension I found that they too were sorting by the description. This is onviously undesirable as it would be much better to have Regular first, then Previous Year, Diff over Prev, Diff % over Prev.
Any assistance you may be able to provide would be greatly appreciated as your solution provides a great solution to an unfortunate problem with Excel!
in the Dimension Editor you can change the "OrderBy" property of the attributes you want to sort by key, using the "Key" value instead of "Name", which is selected by default.
First, Congratulations for your great job.
I was trying DateTool, but when I put Calendar on rows and Comparison on Columns , I got same Total Values for all columns.
Where can i send you a image ?

HAVANA — The federal government says no Canadians were among the seven people killed when a bus carrying tourists and local travellers crashed in far eastern Cuba.
State media report that the bus was carrying 18 Cubans and 22 tourists from Holland, Great Britain, France, Mexico and Canada when it crashed Thursday afternoon on a road between the cities of Baracoa and Guantanamo.

No Canadians involved in Cuban bus crash that killed seven: Government Back to video
The names and nationalities of those killed haven't been released. Five people were also critically injured.
Global Affairs Canada says it is in contact with local authorities and ready to provide consular assistance to any Canadian citizens.
The driver of the bus told Radio Guantanamo that he lost control on the wet and winding road.
Cuban highways are poorly lit, narrow and rutted with huge potholes. There were 750 deaths and 7,999 injuries in 11,187 accidents last year in the country of 11 million. Thursday's wreck was the fourth major bus accident in a month.

Battle Honey - May 25, 2008
We're off to a great start after getting warmed up (and sticky) with Battle Honey. We had an amazing spread, including: John's Very Drunken Shrimp, Kai's Baby Back Ribs, Denise's Baby Back Ribs, Lori's Pulled Chicken, Kai's Foccacia, Pammy's Coleslaw, Melinda's Baked Beans, Denise's Fruit Salad, shots of Honey Bourbon, and Kerry's decadent Honey-Do-Me, Please Do Me Again, Cake.
Are you ready for Round Two???
This week, the Secret Ingredient is Langostino. Langostino is a Spanish word meaning "small lobster" (in Spanish Lobster is called Langosta), but is commonly used in the restaurant trade to refer to the meat of the squat lobster, which is neither a true lobster nor a prawn. It is more closely related to porcelain crabs and hermit crabs. Langostinos are not spiny lobsters despite a similar name.
These may not be readily available, so your dish may substitute lobster, crab, shrimp and/or crawfish.
Let the Battle begin!

OPINION | All the small things...
The world is full of tragedy and darkness, with all kinds of terrible things occurring on a daily basis. And I'm not going to write about any of them.
Instead, I'm going to bring to your attention those tiny, little irritating things that actually drive us far more bonkers than the big awful ones.
They shouldn't, but they do.
The things I mean are like the proverbial stubbed little toe – way too small for the kind of pain they bring, but you howl with rage anyway.
I'm thinking specifically about are the ones around the home: you know, that place of calm and order where everything is as you want it. If any member of my immediate family reads this (ha! as if), some of them might sound familiar.
Here are my top five little irritants (this week anyway).
When people don't push their chairs into the table after they stand up. It's not that hard, and it means that the places where you walk are free of obstacles, and the dining area looks less like a classroom that's been evacuated for a bomb scare.
Half open doors. Shudder. I don't know why – I always picture myself walking into them. Just pick one – open or closed.
Scatter cushions actually scattered, but over the floor. Which leads me to...
Shoes (or cushions) left precisely where I'll trip over them in the dark or when I'm carrying a load of washing.
Closed curtains in the daytime. And even worse, a light on. There's free daylight out there guys – free! All day. Just open the bleeding curtains.
I have been known to slightly over-react to all of the above, which sometimes happen all at the same time.
The fact is, we're all a bit mad and unable to keep things in any kind of perspective. Or at least that's what I tell myself so I feel normal. If my head wasn't so busy blowing these annoyances out of proportion, I'm sure I'd have more space in there to worry about the stuff that really matters.
Now excuse me – I have some chairs to push in.

Longtime fans of Full House, as well as it's revival Fuller House, were sad to hear the Tanner family would be saying goodbye for good. Netflix announced that Fuller House, which follows grown up versions DJ Tanner, Stephanie Tanner, and Kimmie Gibbler, will come to an end after a fifth and final season. While fans got to see many of the original cast members, including Bob Saget, Lori Loughlin, and John Stamos, return to the beloved sitcom, fans were still holding out hope that Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen would make an appearance before the show came to an end. Sadly, though, it seems like that isn't going to happen.
"You heard it from me first: They will never come back!" Candace Cameron Bure, who plays DJ Tanner on Fuller House, told Us Weekly at the 2019 Movieguide Awards on Friday (Feb. 8). "They are never coming back on the show! They don't want to be on the show. The answer's no!"
Despite the disappointment of not having fan-favorite Michelle Tanner, played on the original Full House by the Olsen twins, return to the revival before the finale, Bure is confident that fans will be satisfied with the show's conclusion. "I hate to see it end, but with that being said, it's really great to let fans know ahead of time because we can actually give a really great ending unlike the original Full House and so many other shows that just get canceled on the spot," she explained at the Movieguide Awards. "This is not a cancellation. It's a proper ending to the series. But I'd be totally game if they wanted to keep going. Of course."
Are you disappointed Mary-Kate and Ashely won't be returning to the show that made them a household name? Fuller House is streaming now on Netflix.

Student Ambassadors
Crystal Cook
3L | Hays, KS | Fort Hays State University | firstname.lastname@example.com
Hi! My name is Crystal Cook, and I am a third-year law student from Hays, Kan. I attended Fort Hays State University for my undergraduate, where I double majored in political science and history. I was vice president of our Pre-Law Society and a member of Pi Sigma Alpha, the national political science honorary. I also took advantage of the National Student Exchange Program and studied for a year at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, which was a wonderful experience.
My senior year at FHSU, I was chosen to be an intern at the White House in the Office of the Vice President. Upon graduating in 2007, I accepted a full-time position in Mrs. Cheney's office at the White House. I worked there as the executive assistant until the end of the Bush administration. These years were filled with amazing opportunities that I will always treasure. At the end of the administration, I was confronted with the decision of what I wanted to do with my career. Throughout undergrad, I planned to go to law school and I was interested in exploring that option further. I accepted a legislative assistant position at Bracewell & Giuliani LLP in Washington, D.C., where I worked for two former members of Congress. I learned a lot about law, policy and legislation and confirmed that law school would be my next step.
When deciding where I wanted to go to law school, I looked at schools all over the country. I visited many schools, and KU stood out to me because of the friendly and welcoming atmosphere. KU Law exceeded my expectations and as I begin my second year, I'm positive that this is where I am supposed to be!
As a 2L, stayed busy in the Public Policy Clinic, on the board for the Public Interest Law Society and as a LexisNexis Student Representative. Last year I was also a Staff Editor for the KU Journal on Law & Public Policy and wrote an article on a piece of education policy.
I hope that you will get to know all about what the KU School of Law has to offer and come visit Green Hall. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Best of luck!
