When Cronwright-Schreiner prepared
The Life...
(1924) and
The Letters of Olive Schreiner
(1924), with few exceptions he then destroyed the original letters in his possession. When Olive Schreiner's originals can be compared with his edited versions, his versions are severely shortened, and/or inaccurate in sometimes minor but sometimes major respects, and/or are combinations of a number of original letters. The status of 'the Cronwright-Schreiner letters' is therefore that they are artefacts of his editorial practices, rather than being 'Olive Schreiner letters' as such. Consequently, where original letters which appear in
The Letters...
have been traced, they appear in the context of the appropriate archive collections and not as 'a Cronwright-Schreiner letter'. In addition, where a version exists as one of the Extracts made in preparing
The Letters...
, the extract version is provided because usually longer and in other ways closer to the characteristic writing practices of Schreiner's original letters. The remaining 'Cronwright-Schreiner letters', of which this is one, are provided for the sake of completeness, because they give clues as to where Schreiner was resident at different points in time, and indicate some of her activities. However, they should be read and used with considerable caution for the reasons spelled out here.
To Havelock Ellis.
16, Portsea Place, 11th Sept. (2nd letter).
Only fit to walk about outside and look at the street. ... I think I
see the whole woman question in a way I never did before, and more
clearly than ever now. I have not been wasting my time lately, though
I seem to have been.

Brandon Turley didn't have friends in sixth grade. He would often eat alone at lunch, having recently switched to his school without knowing anyone.
While browsing MySpace one day, he saw that someone from school had posted a bulletin -- a message visible to multiple people -- declaring that Turley was a "f--." Students he had never even spoken with wrote on it, too, saying they agreed.
Feeling confused and upset, Turley wrote in the comments, too, asking why his classmates would say that. The response was even worse: He was told on MySpace that a group of 12 kids wanted to beat him up, that he should stop going to school and die. On his walk from his locker to the school office to report what was happening, students yelled things like "f--" and "fatty."
"It was just crazy, and such a shock to my self-esteem that people didn't like me without even knowing me," said Turley, now 18 and a senior in high school in Oregon. "I didn't understand how that could be."
A pervasive problem
As many as 25 percent of teenagers have experienced cyberbullying at some point, said Justin W. Patchin, who studies the phenomenon at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. He and colleagues have conducted formal surveys of 15,000 middle and high school students throughout the United States, and found that about 10 percent of teens have been victims of cyberbullying in the last 30 days.
Online bullying has a lot in common with bullying in school: Both behaviors include harassment, humiliation, teasing and aggression, Patchin said. Cyberbullying presents unique challenges in the sense that the perpetrator can attempt to be anonymous, and attacks can happen at any time of day or night.
There's still more bullying that happens at school than online, however, Patchin said. And among young people, it's rare that an online bully will be a total stranger.
"In our research, about 85 percent of the time, the target knows who the bully is, and it's usually somebody from their social circle," Patchin said.
Patchin's research has also found that, while cyberbullying is in some sense easier to perpetrate, the kids who bully online also tend to bully at school.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Essie Still one of my fave bags!
Bf got this for me for Christmas 2011 in orange. At first, I was worried that I will not be able to maximize its use due to the colour, but it's surprisingly easy to match! After almost a year and a half, I still get plenty of compliments for this. I don't use it as an everyday bag- only for days which really calls for an orange purse. ;) My only complaint is that I have minor stains on the stitching portions along the sides that probably were from dyes on clothes and that some stitching is starting to frail. This purse has been through a year and a half's worth of beaches, quay markets, vegas vacations etc though so all in all it's held up well. Would definitely recommend this!

Alright folks......I've taken the liberty to visit a Pats board and invite some of their members over for a little discussion. Don't act like a troll, or like a drunkard at the 31st street lot. We'll deal with the new members that come from there (hint: use the report button if you are butt hurt).
Anyway, to me, this is the premier test of this season. We're up against the premier game planner and some of what we have grown accustomed to doing won't work against NE. Time to see what Martz and Marinelli can think up (that we have the skills to execute).

We highly recommend that you print this tutorial. Your computer will restart during the Windows 7 installation process, so having a printed copy will help you follow the steps if you can't return to this webpage.
Depending on your hardware and your current edition of Windows Vista, you might be able to use the Upgrade option during Windows 7 installation. For more information, see Upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7.
If you can't upgrade your computer running Windows Vista to Windows 7, you'll need to select the Custom option during Windows 7 installation. A custom installation doesn't preserve your programs, files, or settings. It's sometimes called a "clean" installation for that reason.
A custom installation is more complex, and it can sometimes take a couple of hours to complete. We created this five-step tutorial to help guide you through the entire process each step of the way.
An external hard disk. You'll need to move your files off of your PC before you install Windows 7. To make this easier, we recommend a free download called Windows Easy Transfer, which will require an external hard disk. They're readily available at electronics and office supply stores, and they provide an easy way to add additional storage space to your computer.
The original installation discs or setup files for the programs that you want to use with Windows 7. You'll need to reinstall your programs by hand after installing Windows 7. When you run Windows Easy Transfer you will get a report that lists the programs that you are currently using with Windows XP.
Both 32-bit and 64-bit installation discs are included in the Windows 7 package. 64-bit operating systems can handle large amounts of memory—typically 4 gigabytes (GB) of random access memory (RAM) or more—more efficiently than 32-bit operating systems. However, not all computers are 64-bit capable. For more information, see 32-bit and 64-bit Windows: frequently asked questions.
To find out which Windows 7 installation disc you can use, click the Start button, right-click Computer, and then click Properties.
Next to System type you should see either "32-bit Operating System" or "64-bit Operating System." If you see "32-bit Operating System" listed, then you're running the 32-bit version of Windows Vista. Step 1 of this tutorial will show you how to run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, which can tell you if your computer is capable of running the 64-bit version of Windows 7.
If "64-bit Operating System" is listed next to System type, then you're running the 64-bit version of Windows Vista and can run the 64-bit version of Windows 7.
Next: Download and run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

Voters react to the Presidential Debate
Updated: October 4, 2012
It was the first debate between President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney. Even though Republicans and Democrats watched the debate separately, they did agree on what they wanted to hear and that was all about jobs and the economy.
Both the President and governor plan to invest in education and training along with keeping taxes low on small businesses. But, they disagreed on how to make that happen.
This is the first of four debates of this election season. The next will be Thursday October 11, between Vice President Joe Biden and Congressman Paul Ryan.

Hog Fan Creates Clever Poster about Coach Bielema's Name
By: Tyler Thomason, KNWA-TV Fayetteville
Updated: December 6, 2012
That's why, after repeated attempts at saying it correctly, Hog fan Juan Perez crafted the perfect pronunciation key.
"Bee Llama," Perez says. "When you look at the pictures, you can pretty much spell out the name."
An insect and a mammal -- providing some articulation assistance.
Perez put together a poster image with pictures of the two, side by side, as a way to help fans say the Head Hog's last name.
"Once I found out the true pronunciation of it, it just came, it was instant," Perez says. "I did it in Photoshop. It honestly took me around five minutes to do it."
A clever play on words for a new coach, just months from hitting the Hog playing field.
"I think he's a good hire," Perez says. "Coming down to the SEC is going to be a big challenge, but I'm sure he's up for it, and I think he's going to do good for us."
And who knows, you just might see this slogan make its way onto a few t-shirts.

Habitat: open places
Flowering: early summer
Height: 20 cm
Width: 20 cm
Soil: gritty
This excellent group of rock garden plants is known as the section Ligulatae, or more commonly as the silver or encrusted saxifrages, in recognition of the deposits of lime that line the leaves. They all have rosettes, large or small depending on the variety, and have relatively large panicles of flowers, usually white. They come from rocky places in the mountains, some on limestone and some on acid rocks.
Saxifraga 'Doctor Clay' has intensely silver-grey rosettes of leaves, with arching stems carrying many white flowers.
9 cm pot £3.50
Saxifraga callosa 'Lissadell' has compact rosettes of lime-edged leaves, from which the stems of pure white flowers arise in early summer. It is a fine form riginally selected in Ireland. | ||
Saxifraga 'Clarence Elliott' has mid green, somewhat fleshy rosettes and pink-flushed, white, starry flowers. | ||
Saxifraga cochlearis 'Minor' is so compact that the silvery rosettes make a cushion, albeit a rather hard one. The flowers come on red stems, from red buds, and have a red blotch, but they themselves are white, so it is a pretty saxifrage for a rock garden, raised bed or trough. | ||
Saxifraga 'Esther' has rosettes of short, lime-encrusted leaves, dark red at the base. The relatively large white flowers are on fairly short stems, so it can be an attractively showy plant. | ||
Saxifraga 'Freckles' has rosettes of grey-green leaves, from which rise branched stems with many small white flowers, heavily speckled with dark red spots. | ||
Saxifraga x gaudinii 'Canis-dalmatica' is sometimes described as a form of Saxifraga callosa, but it is generally accepted to be a hybrid of S. cotyledon and S. paniculata (i.e. Saxifraga x gaudinii). It has rosettes of narrow leathery leaves, heavily lime-encrusted, and long arching stems with many white flowers strongly marked with bright red spots. (Have you ever seen a dalmatian dog with red spots? Nor have I.) | ||
Saxifraga 'Gorges du Verdon' is probably not the given name, but refers to where it was found. It is extremely vigorous, with lots of large rosettes with long leaves, and realtively tall stems with masses of white flowers. | ||
Saxifraga hostii is a handsome silver saxifrage with rosettes of long, narrow, recurved leaves, and tall stems carrying masses of small creamy white flowers, usually spotted red. It is easy and rewarding, but surprisingly rarely grown. | ||
Saxifraga 'Kath's Delight' has been circulated for a long time as 'Kath Dryden', but that name is not valid, as it applies to a Kabschia saxifrage, a hybrid of S. lilacina, whereas this plant is derived from S. longifolia. It needs a new name, and it has been suggested that our catalogue would be a suitable place to do that, so here we are! This is a delightful plant, and Kath would be proud of it, and she was a delight, too. | ||
Saxifraga 'Lantoscana Superba' is a silver saxifrage with rosettes of slender leaves, heavily lime-encrusted, which can make a dense clump. It has long arching stems bearing pure white flowers at the tip and along much of the length. | ||
Saxifraga 'Monarch' has large silver rosettes with narrow leaves. The arching sprays of white flowers look spectacular in the summer. Vigorous, and, rightly, highly regarded. | ||
Saxifraga paniculata subsp. cartilaginea has the usual rosettes of lime-encrusted leaves, and arching stems with very clean, pure white flowers. | ||
Saxifraga paniculata ex Austria makes tight clumps of rosettes, the leaves short, rounded and encrusted with lime. The clusters of white flowers are on dark red stems. This is a selection, originating in Austria. | ||
Saxifraga 'Rainsley Seedling' has trailing stems to the new rosettes and spoon-shaped leaves. | ||
Saxifraga 'Rosa Tubbs' is one of the splendid varieties that has huge stems carrying masses of white flowers, in this case with the petals covered with lots of red spots. It takes several years for the rosettes to grow to flowering size, but meanwhile their long, narrow, lime-encrusted leaves can be enjoyed. Then a few fabulous weeks, and the flowering rosette dies. However, in this variety there should be a good number of young offset rosettes, so the performance can be repeated, with even greater impact. | ||
Saxifraga Southside Seedling Group is a fine saxifrage with rosettes of broad leaves. When a rosette is large enough it sends up a long stem with a great plume of flowers, white with red spots. The flowering rosette dies, but long before this the one rosette will have fostered many offspring. | ||
Saxifraga 'St. John's' is very compact, and the silvery grey rosettes make a tight, hard cushion, with clusters of white flowers standing on short stems. This is a hybrid of Saxifraga crustata and S. paniculata. | ||
Saxifraga 'Sue Tubbs' is a first-rate saxifrage, which makes many rosettes of lime-encrusted broad leaves. When each rosette matures it produces a tall stem with a plume of flowers, white with lots of tiny red spots. | ||
Saxifraga 'Vreny' is a good saxifrage for a trough or raised bed, making tight cushions of grey-green rosettes, from which rise stems carrying masses of starry white flowers. |

Built using the Wright v2.0 Framework!
Why Should you care what Framework your Joomla Template is built upon?
- If you want your site to load quickly, then you need to have a Joomla Template built with a Framework that's Lightweight.
- If you want your site to be able to run the latest version of Joomla, then you will need a Joomla Template built with a Future-Proof Framework that is quickly updated with each Joomla release.
Are all Template Frameworks built the same way?
Other Frameworks have taken what we are convinced is the wrong approach. They have integrated tons of features that have made their frameworks bloated, fat, slow, unreliable and tiresome to update and maintain. There is simply a lot more stuff to go wrong in them and more stuff to update with each new Joomla release. Soon you start to realize that when it comes to Frameworks: less is more.
Why is Joomlashack's Wright Framework Different?
We believe that the Framework should be minimalistic - - it should have the bare minimum to load and function. At 1.2Mb, Wright v1 was already the most lightweight Framework out there: Wright 2 is even lighter, and as a result, when compared with other Frameworks.
- Sites built with Wright load quicker.
- Wright works reliably with the most popular and the obscure Joomla Extensions.
The Joomlashack Joomla Template - a "Strictly Joomla" approach to templates
We build light, non-bloated, and simple to install Joomla Templates to make your life easier. We call them "strictly Joomla" because in most cases you are able to install them using only the Joomla CMS and it's built-in features. This is different from other template companies because they require you to install extra plugins, extensions, and usually need a CCK to get your site to look like their template. Experienced developers have loved our strictly Joomla templates since 2005 because:
- You don't need to install heavy plugins or extensions to make the template work.
- All these extra plugins and extensions will also need to be maintained and updated with each new Joomla release (every 6 months), as well as made to be compatible with other 3rd party extensions.
- A light and quick-loading template/site is good for SEO.
- Our templates have simpler overrides reducing installation, support, upgrade, and maintenance needs. For example, our Joomla 3.0 upgrade took less than two days to apply to all our templates. In contrast, some companies still aren't done updating their complicated templates to Joomla 3.0.
The end result is a lighter yet more robust, more reliable, and easier to maintain site. Learn more about the Wright Framework, the lightest framework in the Joomlasphere.

Looking for
speaker & subwoofer boxes?
How to Build a Subwoofer Box
...and save some money, too.
Cost for materials (not including the sub): Around $25
Time spent: Around an hour and a half *
*Remember that the time you spend on this project may vary — it will depend on the complexity of your box's shape, and the tools you have at your disposal.
Tools and materials:
- Jigsaw
- Electric drill with bits for pre-drilling screw holes and driving screws
- 3/4" MDF (medium density fiberboard)
- 2" drywall screws
- Panhead sheet metal screws (1/2" and 3/4")
- Carpenter's glue
- Silicon caulk
- Non-hardening rope caulk
- Speaker terminal cup
I chose the Alpine SWE-1041 10" subwoofer for my CR-V because it requires relatively little box volume.
1. Choosing your subwoofer.
When choosing a subwoofer, carefully note the manufacturer's recommended enclosure size, especially if you have limited space in your vehicle. The box volume tells you how big your enclosure needs to be for maximum performance from the sub. The box shown in this article was intended for my Honda CR-V, so I wanted to make sure it wouldn't take up too much space. With that requirement in mind, I chose the Alpine SWE-1041 10" sub. The manufacturer recommends a box volume of 0.6 to 1.25 cubic feet.
2. Designing the box.
To determine the correct dimensions for any subwoofer box, you can follow these steps:
- Determine the minimum depth of your box. Measure the depth of your subwoofer and add 2 inches. This measurement is the minimum depth of your box (in this article, the depth refers to the front-to-back dimension of the box, with the woofer being mounted to the front).
- Determine the minimum height and width of your box. Measure the frame diameter of your woofer, or check the mounting template that may be included with the owner's manual, to determine the minimum height and width for the front of your box. If you plan to mount a grille, be sure to allow for any additional space that may be needed to accommodate it.
- Determine the available space in your vehicle. Measure the height, width, and depth of the vehicle space that you are willing to devote to your subwoofer. If the box must be wedge-shaped to fit, you will need to know the depth at the box's top and bottom.
Sketch out your box. Now's the time to sketch your box on paper using the dimensions you've gathered. The box shown in this article is rectangular, but you may find that a wedge-shaped box fits better in your car or truck. Your sketch may look like one of these:
For our examples, let's use the following external dimensions:
Rectangular box:
Height: 13"
Width: 14"
Depth: 12" -
Wedge box:
Height: 14"
Width: 18"
Depth 1: 5"
Depth 2: 8"
Rectangular box:
Determine the internal dimensions and volume of your box. The above steps identified the external dimensions of the box. To determine the internal volume, just subtract the thickness of the wood to be used for construction. If you're using 3/4" MDF (recommended!), then 2 x 3/4", or 1-1/2", will be subtracted from each dimension.
The internal dimensions for our examples:
Rectangular box:
Height: 11.5"
Width: 12.5"
Depth: 10.5" -
Wedge box:
Height: 12.5"
Width: 16.5"
Depth 1: 3.5"
Depth 2: 6.5"
Rectangular box:
Calculate the internal box volume in cubic inches. Based on the internal dimensions, you can calculate the internal volume of the enclosure using the following formula:
Height x Width x Depth = Cubic Volume
Let's put some numbers in:
Rectangular box:
11.5" x 12.5" x 10.5" = 1,509.375 cubic inches -
Wedge box: Since the wedge box has two depth dimensions, we need to find the average depth before we can determine the volume. To find the average depth, add the two depth measurements together, then divide by two. Remember that Depth 1 = 3.5 and Depth 2 = 6.5.
3.5" + 6.5" = 10"
10" / 2 = 5"
So, the average depth of the wedge-shaped box is 5". Plug that dimension into the formula:
12.5" x 16.5" x 5" = 1,031.25 cubic inches
Convert cubic inches to cubic feet. Since most manufacturers will provide the recommended box volume in cubic feet, you'll need to convert the internal volume from cubic inches into cubic feet. This is done by dividing the cubic inches by 1,728.
- Rectangular box: 1,509.375 / 1728 = 0.873 cubic feet
- Wedge box: 1,031.25 / 1728 = 0.597 cubic feet
Adjust your box's volume to match the sub's specifications. Now, compare the volume of the box you've sketched to the manufacturer's recommendation. If it's too large or too small, you can make small adjustments to one dimension until your box's internal volume matches the manufacturer's recommendation as closely as possible.
Often, manufacturers will recommend a range of enclosure volumes. You can get good results with a box that's anywhere inside the recommended range.
- Determine the final exterior box dimensions. Once you've identified the correct internal dimensions, it's time to add back that 1-1/2" we subtracted in step 5, to derive the new external dimensions. Double check to make sure that these dimensions will fit properly in your car, and you're ready to move on to construction.

5. Finishing and customizing the subwoofer box.
After finishing the box, I couldn't wait to pop it in my CR-V. After the glue and caulk had dried, we hooked it up to the rear channels of my Alpine 4-channel amplifier using 12-gauge speaker cable. It sounded excellent, and the box was definitely sturdy.
However, since naked MDF leaves something to be desired in the looks department, I checked in with Crutchfield's installation specialist, Warren Hawkins, to get some ideas on customizing a subwoofer box. He offered up plenty of inspiration and installation tips on all kinds of coverings, from vinyl to carpet and beyond!
Thanks to Kelley Blanton, and to Taylor and Boody Organbuilders of Staunton, VA, for the use of their facility and tools.

2. | you got served | ||
1. A slang expression that is usually used when someone proves that they are better than someone else.
2. Another way of saying "You just got owned" or "Pwned!" 1. "You just got served, muthafucka!"
2. "You can't understand the meaning of the Torah and why Moses was an amazing leader of the Jews. I'm sorry, Yaakov, but you just got served by Jewish heritage." |
3. | You got served | ||
Very bad movie. Created for viewing by only by breakdancers and fucking retards. Which both fall into the same catagory. You got served is a bad movie. Plain and simple.
4. | you got served | ||
The most hysterically shite film ever. apparantly number 1 in america for a while.....HOW? please god how on earth!? films like "you got served" get top reviews and films like "donnie darko, the lost highway, true romance (quentin tarrentino) and blade runner are basically unheard of.
Incidently the funniest ever south park episode is the you got served episode. Seriously someone needed to utterly rip the piss out of that piece of shit film. The film is a joke, when i first saw it i thought it really was a joke. Oh and by the way i DONT hate blacks, plenty of incredible black actors out there, but hey not a bunch of second grade rapping fags who already make millions of mtv. "Pacey You Got Served!"
"What the fuck you on about?" |
5. | you got served | ||
A movie that has someone saying "You suckas got served." in it, but has no distribution of food or volleyball bumbs. You know, that white guy in that movie said "You suckas got served.", but he is nowhere near a McDonalds.
6. | You Got Served | ||
a "dancing" movie that proves being 'popular' doesn't mean being 'high quality' and seems to also prove that a large number of Americans may have bad/no taste and intelligence. 1. Americans elected George W Bush into office TWICE!!! - you got served
2. Americans love Yeck!Donalds "food" - you got served - at a counter or window ... 3. "You Got Served" a "movie" (in the same way that CrackDonalds is "food") was hugely "popular" - proof many "got served" for taste & brains at birth. |
7. | you got served | ||
Oh, what now bitch?
Ha ha, oh, you got served! |

Very useful device to convert your regulator to DIN

They should come this way!
By dieseldude
from Stanwood, WA
Personally I think DIN is a superior hookup & is clearly more compact-It's a shame the reg's don't come equipped this way. Conversion was easy though it would be nice if they included the torque spec's in the bag-I don't see a need to pay someone for a really simple conversion & having had poor service from "Authorized Repair Fascilities" I'd rather do it myself. It's my life on the line, not the repair guy.

It could not get any faster! I place the order and got it right to my door in less than 2 days. Since it was an International order I thought it would take longer.
Good DIN converter

This adapter works very well - but should have been included with the original purchase and not as an added item.

Health Information
ADHD Myths and Facts
Topic Overview
Some of the misconceptions about attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) include the following:
Myth | Fact |
There is no such medical condition as ADHD. |
ADHD is a medical disorder, not a condition of the child's will. A child with ADHD does not choose to misbehave. |
ADHD is caused by bad parenting. All the child needs is good discipline. |
ADHD is not caused by bad parenting. But parenting techniques can often improve some symptoms and make others worse. |
ADHD is a life sentence. |
Although ADHD symptoms usually continue into adulthood, the person learns ways to cope with the symptoms. People with ADHD have plenty of energy, are creative, and can often accomplish more than people who do not have the condition. |
Having ADHD means the person is lazy or dumb. |
ADHD has nothing to do with a person's intellectual ability. Some highly intelligent people have ADHD. |
The diagnosis of ADHD is confirmed if certain medicines (psychostimulants) have a positive effect on what seem to be symptoms of ADHD. |
Children without ADHD respond to psychostimulants similarly to children with ADHD. A trial of medicine is not used to diagnose the condition. |
Medicine for ADHD will make a person seem drugged. |
Properly adjusted medicine for ADHD sharpens a person's focus and increases his or her ability to control behavior. |
Medicine prescriptions for ADHD have greatly increased in the past few years, because the condition is being overdiagnosed. |
ADHD is estimated to affect about 3 to 7 out of 100 school-age children in the United States.Reference 1 There is little evidence to support claims that ADHD is overdiagnosed and that ADHD medicines are overprescribed. |
Psychostimulants are no longer useful after puberty. |
Teens and adults with ADHD continue to benefit from medicine treatment. |
Children with ADHD are learning to use the condition as an excuse for their behavior. |
ADHD is a disability. Children with ADHD have to learn ways to deal with their symptoms (inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity) that cause them to have difficulties in life. |
Children outgrow ADHD. |
About 70 out of 100 children with ADHD continue to have symptoms during their teen years and about 50 out of 100 have symptoms into adulthood.Reference 2 |
If a child has ADHD, he or she can always be diagnosed in the doctor's office. |
A child may not always show symptoms of ADHD, especially in an unfamiliar setting. Evaluating a child from one office observation may result in failure to recognize or diagnose symptoms. |

San Francisco bouncy balls
Remember that mindblowing commercial a few years ago where thousands of bouncy balls cascaded down the hills of San Francisco? Well, Danish photographer Peter Funch captured photos of the scene, and Lumas is selling limited edition prints. Aren't they magical?
Here's the commercial, if you haven't seen it:

That Girl in PearlsWow i never saw this commercial. How the heck do you get licensing for that kind of thing? And how do they catch them all before they go into the bay? With a big net? lol Gosh it was lovely though. And that frog jumping out of the pipe was pretty amazing too. So awesome.

Bonsai People: The Vision of Muhammad Yunus, is a feature length documentary film that explores the work of Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus and his vision from microcredit to social business. The latest documentary by award winning filmmaker Holly Mosher is the first film looking at his work from microcredit to social business. The film is an emotionally compelling look at his work tackling poverty from all angles. "Seeing the real people in this movie gives you the real experience," says Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Muhammad Yunus.
The Skoll World Forum on Social Entrepreneurship is the premier, international platform for accelerating entrepreneurial approaches and innovative solutions to the world's most pressing social issues.
Each year in Oxford, 800 distinguished delegates from the social, finance, private and public sectors convene in Oxford for three days and nights of critical debates, discussions and work sessions aimed at innovating, accelerating and scaling solutions to social challenges.
To Catch a Dollar, a 2010 Sundance Film Festival selection, documents the birth of Grameen America and the effort to bring Nobel Peace Prize winner and Presidential Medal of Honor winner Muhammad Yunus's revolutionary microfinance program to the United States. The film features stories of women borrowers from around the world -- with a focus here in the U.S. on the plight of those struggling to save. It also educates viewers about the potential for microfinance as a solution to a number of these pressing social challenges.

Stormers to switch tack in play-offs
21 Jun 2011
Allister Coetzee tells JON CARDINELLI that the Stormers will squeeze rather than run opponents ragged in next week's semi-final at Newlands.
Last Saturday's match in Bloemfontein saw the Stormers scoring four tries and amassing 44 points. It was one of the few occasions in 2011 were the Cape franchise has managed to bag the four-try bonus point, and one of the rarest of instances where their back division has looked dangerous.
Peter Grant made several errors, but brought some stability and purpose to the attack, while the other selections in midfield and in the back three certainly had an impact.
Juan de Jongh and Jaque Fourie combined well in the centres, Jean de Villiers produced some neat touches from the right wing and Gio Aplon offered some much needed variation from fullback.
Coetzee agreed that the backline did well against the Cheetahs, but also reiterated what he had said in the build-up to that game. The backline changes where made for a specific attacking purpose. Coetzee said that the team would need to employ less cavalier tactics in a semi-final situation.
'We backed horses for courses, and they did well, but it's difficult to say exactly who will play in the semi-final,' he told keo.co.za. 'Obviously we will need to see who we are playing before we make plans and selections.
'You always need to be a bit more conservative in a one-off game like a semi-final. It could be a real squeeze, and so I'd like to ensure we have the right balance between kicking the ball and keeping it in hand.'
The Crusaders are favourites to beat the Sharks this week, and in that event they will travel to Cape Town for the semi-finals. However, if the Sharks win, the Stormers will play the winner of the Blues vs Waratahs play-off.
Both the Crusaders and Waratahs are renowned for their forward strength, tactical kicking and defence. If either of these teams come up against the Stormers, the Newlands faithful could be in for a tactical arm-wrestle rather than a free-running spectacle.
Coetzee has said on many occasions that it is the objective of his team to win rather than entertain, and even the most romantic of Stormers supporters will find it hard to criticise if a pragmatic game plan yields a title. After all, it's been 10 years since a Cape team won a trophy if substance.
The Stormers came close to winning the Super 14 title last year, but fell short when they were tactically outplayed by the Bulls. They've only lost four games this season, but on each occasion they were outplayed in a similar manner.
Coetzee believes those results will have no bearing on a future play-off encounter, and feels the Stormers have matured since last season. According to Coetzee, they will not repeat the same mistakes.
'I definitely think this side has grown. We have won a couple of semis, and while we lost two finals we did learn from the experience. We've also done well to keep winning this season despite being down to our fifth-choice flyhalf. For me that shows this team has the guts and temperament to be a success.'

21 Jun 2011, 05:30 amSqueeeeeezing DRAGONS, oh dear!
21 Jun 2011, 05:30 amStats show that teams who are savvy in defense while they are attack orientated have won the super title more times. Only on 2 occasions where the superior defensive team of the tournament has won the whole thing whilst their attacking prowess was low – midtable.
Those teams who have been superior in attacking over the course of the tournament, top table with tries scored and mid table defense, have won more titles.
Look at the teams and you will get an idea how to tip.
Crusaders and Blues to win this weekend. next weekend Crusaders and Reds. Following weekend it will be a humdinger as both these teams are similar in this years tournament.
21 Jun 2011, 06:57 amWaratahs are the dark horses this year watch out, they likely take Blues and they can take any of the others in their stride, Saders, Sharks, Stormers or Reds, Waratahs can take any of those. Don't count Waratahs out.
21 Jun 2011, 08:14 amstormers win next 2 games its home and dry, in the bag……
Whatever it takes boys, whatever it takes!
21 Jun 2011, 08:24 am@grant10(grant10)-4: It's amazing how simple that equation is, really! We have come far, and all those semifinal and Final heartbreaks will have to be put to bed in the next 3 weeks. No questions asked!
21 Jun 2011, 08:26 am@Wallabie
I have to agree with you (as painful as it is), that historically an attack orientated side are in a better position to win the cup. Thinking back at the begiining of the season i was ready to put my house on the crusaders to win the cup, however they dont look so potent in the last four or so weeks.Thus even if the crusaders might have the best point difference, recent form also needs to be looked at. Also, what a strong defensive unit such as the stormers do well is to keep the ball. they might not always score four tries, but they also dont give the opposition the opportunity to do.
I would say its the stormers vs crusaders are a 50/50 on a neutral venue, but we will just tip it in our favour on Newlands. Should be an epic battle – cant wait.
Then the final – depends if Quade has a good day or not. If he does, he dont stand a chance, however – I still prefer to go in with a balanced team and take my chances on the day with the pressure of a final.
And thats my emotional choices…
21 Jun 2011, 08:34 amBig mistake to change tactics now. Why on earth would they do that ? Play the rugby that got you a home semi-final for goodness sake.
21 Jun 2011, 08:45 am@Dusky(Dusky)-7: thats what AC is saying dumbo!
Against the Cheetahs we ran the ball….he is saying in the semi , dependent on our opponents, we may revert to our more conservative game plan.
Kan jy nie lees nie?
21 Jun 2011, 09:00 amIt's interresting that if you look at the log of the top 6, bonus points did not cost anyone a home semi in the knockout stages. The first 3 teams won 13, 12 and 11 games respectively. The other 3 all won 10, with 2 of them adding a draw to their points tally.
The big loser was the Bulls who also won 10, but the Tahs aced them on bonus points (and the sharks too, despite their draw).
So lack of bonus points only cost the Bulls this year, not the Stormers as everyone was whining about at the beginning of the season.
Conservative may not be as entertaining to the rest of the country, but if you're a Stormers fan it's fine with us.
21 Jun 2011, 09:26 am@grant10(grant10)-8: They'll have to. funny how all the media is going on about the 4 tries they scored, but ignores the fact that they also let 4 tries through.
The Stormers were sneaky, but clever this weekend. Don't think this tactic will work again. Everytime a breakdown took place the Stormers rather went to block the tackler (so he can't roll away) than go for the ball. This was guarenteed penalties. (The Sharks did a similar thing a few weeks ago, but much more blatant)
This rule will eventually be blown different, because similar to the defender allowing the attacking player to place the ball, the defender should also be allowed to roll away. The rule interpretation is stupid, but the Stormers and Sharks have used it cleverly this year. (Oh, and the Reds as well.)
21 Jun 2011, 09:28 am@wallabie – 2:
don't agree bru, the reds haven't play in any semi-final the last decade, so my guess is they will crumble under the play off pressure….even the flamboyant cooper's tricks will be a gamble in such a tight affair, bethat the final of semi-final -
21 Jun 2011, 10:15 amInteresting what you say!
Question how did the bulls start winning semis and finals – having a good run up to them. BMT is important but BMT is really about sticking to game plan under pressure. The reds have on at least 3 occassions have had to pull out the BMT.
Yes there is 3 weeks ahead but a successful team always starts somewhere.
21 Jun 2011, 10:26 amferrera – I agree. I have a hunch that the Sharks just may have found their stride in the type of game they are playing. The Sharks are playng a better attack style now than the Stormers, with a big defense as well!!!
If the Sharks had a home semi like The Stormers i would tip to win the S15 but they have to travel to play Crusaders will be tuff ask. I watched them at Twickers this year and the Sharks could have beaten the Crusaders if a few things had gone their way.
I am tipping the Sharks and Waratahs as finalist outsiders!!
The Stormers are limiting their potential again by goin gback to a defensive style instead of just playing the situation!! -
21 Jun 2011, 10:29 amAC looking to play it a bit negative… It never works. They lost to the Bulls by employing that kind of stupidity. Leave JDV on the wing.. He does well there. He blows hot and cold at center and it would be risky to play him there against formidable opposition.. I would however play him there against the Sharks
21 Jun 2011, 10:49 am@youknowwho(youknowwho)-14: They lost to the Bulls because that dropped practically every pass so never got anywhere.
If they tighten up their handling their defensive game is very hard to beat.
They know what the Reds and Crusaders are likely to try against them as they've done it before and it worked, so they advantage of beinf fairly sure of the type of game each team is likely to play against them and so hopefully have a plan to plug the holes.
21 Jun 2011, 11:00 am@race of tan(race of tan)-13: Saders must be overall favourites along with The Reds if you consider experience and form respectively…
I was at the game earlier this year and am reading from the same page you are. The Sharks played for half a game against the Saders at Twickenham – if the travel doesn't affect them and they rock up for the 2nd week in a row, I don't think they will be rolled over as some expect.
Of course I am biased, but I'm backing them for an upset and hoping the Blues beat the Tah's as the Tah's are more of a worry for me in the latter stages (they are very good defensively and have game breakers for tight games – I never liked Kurtley Beale when he 1st hit the scene, but the man can play).
Go the Sharks
21 Jun 2011, 11:01 am@stormersboy(stormersboy)-15: When you play negative or against your natural instincts, the errors tend to mount up. The Bulls game was a typical example of that.
21 Jun 2011, 11:06 am@youknowwho(youknowwho)-17: I dunno, we played this game very successfully last year and for quite a few games this year. I'd even venture to say that it has become their "natural" game.
21 Jun 2011, 11:09 amNicG – it is a shame the Sharks hit their stride late as i tihnk they have a better style of play than the Stormers to win the comp!! With Michelak and Lambie playing together they are a force and a half now!!
21 Jun 2011, 11:20 am@race of tan(race of tan)-19: Well they are still in the comp, so they can still win it. It's up to them.
21 Jun 2011, 11:31 am@stormersboy(stormersboy)-18: There is a huge difference between defending well in an offensive strategy and defending well in a defensive strategy.. The latter makes you wait and see, leaving the opposition to dictate matters. You wait on them to make the errors. While you may win with this strategy, the chances of losing is greater
21 Jun 2011, 11:32 amIts been a week since I was last here, I guess I wont be seeing Tacitus and his buddies anytime soon.
21 Jun 2011, 11:43 am@race of tan(race of tan)-13: You peanut.
You can't "tip someone to be outsiders". If they are outsiders, then you are not tipping them to make it. If you think they will make it, you are saying they are not outsiders in your book.
In any case, calling the number 5th and 6th team on the log "outsiders to make the final" is hardly rocket science. -
21 Jun 2011, 11:49 am@youknowwho(youknowwho)-21: There's no doubt that the stormers default defensive strategy means to have create a lot of your offense on turnovers and counter attacks, which means you have to defend more and therefore expend more energy, which at this stage of the comp is dangerous, I'm just amazed that it's worked so well in spite of it's risks. But work it has. Mostly.
Have your say
