On leave for Thanksgiving, the last thing marine lieutenant Talia Barnett expects to find is Liam Brodie waiting for her at the airport. He's had a starring role in her fantasies for the past two years, and although she'd love to make them a reality, she has a dark secret that prevents her from taking things further.
A former marine, Liam's specialty is planning tactical operations, and that's just what he plans to do to win Talia. The woman has kept him at arm's length for too long, and this time he's finally going to claim her—body and heart.
What begins as comfort quickly turns hot. When Liam shows Talia a hint of the dominant nature inside him, the submissive part of her flares to life. Though she desires him, she's going back on deployment and doesn't want to dump all her drama on him. Will he find a way to break through the protective walls around her heart and convince her they have a future that goes far beyond the bedroom?
"What are you going to do?""What I've wanted to do to you for almost two years. Shhh. Let me in"

Seoul (The Korea Herald/ANN) - Korea's Saenuri Party presidential candidate Rep. Park Geun-hye yesterday publicly apologised to the people who suffered under her father's iron-fisted rule in a move to ward off controversy over her historical views and regain her frontrunner status.
"The May 16, Yushin and Inhyeokdang cases damaged the value of the constitution and delayed the political development of the Republic of Korea," Park said at a press conference held at the party's headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul.
"I deeply apologise to all those who were personally hurt and the family members of victims of government abuse... I will exert all my efforts to cure the pain and the suffering."
The five-term lawmaker was referring to three of the most controversial incidents during former President Park Chung-hee's 18-year rule: the May 16 military coup in 1961 that led to his presidency; the Yushin Constitution amendment in October 1972 that allowed him to stay in power indefinitely; and the Inhyeokdang incident that led to the execution of eight democratic activists in 1974.
This was the first time the presidential candidate made a formal apology for her father's rule. It came two weeks after her popularity ratings dropped after comments in a radio interview that there were "two verdicts" on the Inhyeokdang case. The initial ruling was overturned in 2007 by a court that ruled the eight were tortured into making false confessions.
Torn by her personal sense of duty to uphold her father's achievements, Park had sidestepped questions about his rule, prompting her fellow party members and campaigners to recommend she take a more concilliatory approach.
"How a purpose cannot justify the means in politics has been a value of democracy in the past and must remain that way," said Park, her eyes bloodshot and expression solemn.
"In the shadows of South Korea's rapid growth there was pain, suffering and irregularities as well as various human rights abuses committed by authorities," Park added.
After apologising to victims and their families, Park said during the 10-minute speech that a committee would be set up to realise greater social harmony for a more developed democracy.
Park's aides explained after the news conference that the committee would not only deal with the contentious issues of the past but also tackle other pending social divisions in the long-term.
Observers said while the former chairwoman's apology was timely to help prevent a further decline in popularity, it would take more to persuade those beyond her traditional supporters.
"The reason why the opposition forces' attacks on Park's historical perception rings true among the public is because the public has become concerned that Park herself has the potential to become an authoritarian and uncommunicative leader," said politics professor Yoon Seong-yi of Kyung Hee University.
"While an apology was necessary, it is more advantageous for Park to place the focus on what type of leadership she will show if she wins the presidency," he said.
As an example, Yoon suggested Park give a clear position on how she will secure better, greater democracy inside the party, and how to distribute the excessive power bestowed upon the president under the current system.
During the speech, Park also appealed for understanding her agony as a daughter, saying, "I am sure it is not what the people really want for me to spit on my father's grave."
Visibly tense, Park made the mistake of calling Inhyeokdang, Minhyeokdang, while delivering her statement. Her aides explained the word was misspelled on the prompter, but others said it was a mispronunciation. Minhyeokdang refers to an organisation set up by a pro-North faction in 1992.
After the statement, Park told reporters while leaving the press room, "Everything is implied in what I have said today and what is important now is acting on it."
The main opposition Democratic United Party said it was "considerably positive" for Park to offer such acknowledgement, but called for "sincere countermeasures."
"While Park calls Yushin and May 16 the past and says that she is the future, the two cases are still on-going issues," said DUP spokesman Jung Sung-ho.
"What we need is not only the legal conclusion of the Yushin system but also a close cooperation in reforming chaebol that are the vestiges of Yushin," Jung said.
Bereaved families of the Inhyeokdang case criticised Park's news conference as "not sincere."
"If she had made such comments from the start, I would have believed that she had such views in mind as a politician. But now it seems as if she is reading out something that someone else wrote for her," Kang Soon-hee, the wife of late Woo Hong-seon, was quoted as telling Yonhap News.
Independent presidential candidate Ahn Cheol-soo, meanwhile, welcomed Park's position.
"It must not have been easy but it was something that needed to be done," Ahn told reporters during his visit to a research centre at Kookmin University.

Coffee Fundraisers
Coffee - An Opportunity Worth A Look
* Most American adults drink coffee so your market is huge
* Our coffee is roasted daily and flavored to order
* Our coffee and tea fundraiser costs nothing to start
* Our back pack program is a great alternative to selling candy
Below we will review the benefits and details of coffee fundraisers so you can choose the best program for your group.
Review Posted by: South Iron R1 School - (April 25 2013)
Tiffany, I got the replacement bag of coffee. Thank you for all of your help! The service has been wonderful. I will use your company again for fundraisers. Have a great day! Sandy
Review Posted by: Cathy - (December 18 2012)
Guess what? We got our coffee backpacks today! Thanks SO much for the expedited delivery. The kids are very excited, and, from the looks of today's activity, we may be ordering some more in January. Again, greatest thanks!
Coffee Fundraisers - Sell Products People Already Buy
Coffee is another great way for your group to raise the money it needs by selling a product that people purchase on a regular basis.
There are two types of coffee fundraisers. One consists of pre selling coffee using free brochures. We will provide each member of your group a brochure, order form and cash collection envelope. They use those sales materials to take orders and collect payment. At the end of your sale you collect the order forms and cash and then, after tallying the order, you place your bulk coffee order.
The other coffee fundraising program is a direct sale. This is our newest coffee program. You give each member of your group a backpack filled with 52 assorted bags of flavored coffee. They sell each bag for $1. A bag makes a pot of coffee. This program works very much like a candy fundraiser in that you have the product on hand and give it directly to the purchaser at the time of the sale.
Do not be fooled by companies that offer profits as high as 100% on coffee sales. Those outrageous profit claims are made by having you run a second concurrent fundraiser at the same time. Remember that you can only make 100% profit when there is no cost to what you are selling!
We have partnered with a roaster located in Texas. They roast their beans, grind them and then place them in Vacuum Sealed foil bags to insure freshness. We use this coffee ourselves and believe it is the freshest coffee available in the industry.
Try it yourself.
May's most popular Coffee fundraisers
Coffee and Tea
You might consider selling coffee and tea to raise money. Coffee has been very successful for many types of groups. Your group would sell 10 oz bags of freshly ground coffee for $10 each. There are seven great flavors along with an old fashion gift coffee tin. Coffee sales work best in the fall and winter.
Coffee Backpacks
This is our newest coffee product. Instead of pre selling coffee you order backpacks filled with 52 $1 packets of assorted flavored coffee. Sellers keep the back packs as prizes. Each back pack comes with 52 packets of coffee. Each packet makes a full pot of coffee. You can purchase as little as one case of 9 back packs.

DETROIT - After forcing the resignation of Chairman Robert Stempel last week, some General Motors board members themselves may be asked to vacate the board as part of a continuing remake of the company.At its meeting today in New York, the GM board is expected to give President Jack Smith the added responsibility of CEO, replacing Stempel.
John Smale is expected to take Stempel's other post, chairman of the board. Smale, former chairman of Procter & Gamble, led the board putsch that resulted in a management and board shakeup last April and Stempel's resignation Oct. 26.
Roger Smith, Stempel's predecessor as chairman, is one of seven directors who will be asked to step down, according to a source with ties to the board.

Miss America is heading back to Atlantic City.
Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno welcomed the pageant back to its birthplace after spending six years in Las Vegas on Thursday morning, Feb. 14.
"For decades, the Miss America organization has awarded scholarships to thousands of young women to help further their goals of higher education and achieve their dreams," Guadagno said. "New Jersey is proud to once again host the Miss America Pageant here in Atlantic City. We are confident that Atlantic City's famous boardwalk and variety of restaurants, shops and entertainment venues will showcase the city's vibrancy and attraction to the participants and many visitors that will attend the Miss America Pageant every year."
The pageant began in 1921, and was held at Boardwalk Hall for 86 years, through 2006, when it moved to Las Vegas. This year's pageant was held in Las Vegas, and Lindsey Petrosh, of Egg Harbor City, represented New Jersey.
Last month, she told Galloway Patch she grew up watching the pageant at Boardwalk Hall, and said there was "nothing like it." While disappointed she wasn't able to compete at Boardwalk Hall, she was thrilled by the opportunity just to practice there.
And now, it seems, the pageant is on its way back to Atlantic City, pending board action by the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) and the Atlantic City Convention and Visitors Authority (ACCVA) later this month.
No offical return date has been provided.
"Miss America is as much a part of Atlantic City as the beach and Boardwalk," Atlantic County Executive Dennis Levinson said. "It is great to see this event come back home. It could not have happened without the leadership of Acting Governor Kim Guadagno."
Since Superstorm Sandy hit the area in October, the public perception has been that the entire Jersey Shore has been decimated, despite the fact that most of Atlantic City's casinos were open for business by the end of that week, and they were all reopened by Nov. 5.
When he introduced the budget last month, Levinson noted a decline in the casino industry.
"I cannot think of a better way to reintroduce the country to Atlantic City," CRDA Executive Director John Palmieri said. "The return of Miss America to Atlantic City is indicative of the tremendous progress CRDA and its partners are making in revitalizing the city."
"We are so very proud to bring Miss America back to her birthplace in Atlantic City," said Sam Haskell, III, Chairman of the Board for the Miss America Organization. "We are grateful to Governor Christie and his staff for helping make this possible. Throughout the decades, Miss America has evolved into an organization that enables over 12,000 young women to enter and participate in our scholarship program each and every year.
"Today, Miss America remains an iconic symbol, and our roots have always stayed connected to Atlantic City. Our proud heritage is rich in history, having been named by USA Today as one of the Top Ten pieces of Americana remaining in our great country today."

All the governor and lt. governor are worried about is the tourism in the state not being interupted due to the storm. Do they really care about the people that are still not in their homes? No! Instead they worry about visitors coming for a week to spend money, while some residents are going to have to leave the state. Their priorities are all wrong.
Josef Kramer
9:29 pm on Thursday, February 14, 2013
This area runs on tourism and a 30 million dollar boost to the economy is well worth it, Sure Christie doesn't care about some residents not in their homes heck I don't even care about my fellow citizens that are homeless because I'm not, Survival of the Fittest..Remember they choose to live there, They knew the risks, F Em
7:53 am on Friday, February 15, 2013
What don't some of you get here? It's not just about the tourism...people who live here and support this state work at AC. They need jobs just like the rest of us. This will most certainly bring some $ into this state to help with the economy. I'm all for anything that can help NJ get back on their feet!

We need to think about increases in revenue and this is good for that assuming people care about Miss America. More revenue and spending cuts NOW.

Kenyon launched a new Web site in June 2008 to capture the vitality of the College while providing abundant information which users can navigate and search with greater ease. The debut of the redesigned site marked the culmination of a year-long effort involving the entire campus community along with alumni, parents, and prospective students.
Designed by White Whale Web Services of Oakland, California, the new site features a homepage "photomosaic wall" of 27 clickable images, which serve as both a visual metaphor and set of entry points into the multifaceted Kenyon experience. White Whale also overhauled the site navigation structure and developed quick-access tools for a number of Web pages.
About the Photo Wall
We created this photo wall with White Whale Web Services as part of the Kenyon Web redesign in 2008. Often, the wall appears as a mosaic of images. Sometimes we use it to showcase just one, two, or three photos that go with a special feature. It's impossible, of course, to tell Kenyon's story in a single picture, or even an array of pictures. But we think the photo wall can suggest the diversity of people, places, activities, and ideas that shape the Kenyon experience. We encourage you to click on an image, explore, and get a taste of what makes Kenyon so distinctive. New images are added regularly, so check back often.

ASUS Prepares AMD Radeon HD 7850 DirectCU II Dragon Edition
ASUS doesn't seem content to release amazing products to just enthusiasts, they are now preparing a new AMD Radeon HD 7850 design which has been designated the Dragon Edition. The card (DRAGON HD7850-DC2O-2GD5) has a Core clock of 910 Mhz, meanwhile the 2GB of GDDR5 memory will be clocked at 1250 MHz (5000 MHz effective). While this particular model is also a DirectCU II variant, it certainly can't be called more of the same. ASUS has changed the cooler, instead of using 2 heatsinks which are connected via heatpipes they will instead use just one heatsink that uses external heatpipes. Cooling of the new aluminum fin heatsink is provided by dual 80mm fans. Let's not forget this will also be the first 7850 from ASUS that includes a backplate, something which wasnt included on the TOP variant. The PCB is also getting an overhaul, having been modified to use ASUS's Supper Alloy Power technology for its 6+3 phase VRM. Display connectivity will consist of DVI-D, DVI-I, HDMI and of course DisplayPort. Currently no information is available as to when the model will be released worldwide, however the ASUS Radeon HD 7850 DirectCU II Dragon Edition is available in China for $361.
The ASUS HD 7850 Dragon Edition (DRAGON HD7850-DC2O-2GD5) has in fact lower clocks lower than DirectCU II Top model. Card arrives with 910/5000 MHz clocks for core and memory respectively. This is 65 MHz slower than Top model.

That being said, the pies served at Artichoke are often inconsistent. When they're on, their pizza is great. But when something is off, the results can be disastrous. In addition -- when Artichoke first opened, it was at the forefront of the pizza boom in New York City. Now that there are so many other high quality pizza places to choose from, Artichoke is nothing special. The first summer it was open, hour long lines formed down 14th Street. Now it's rare to find more than a dozen people in line.
The story of Artichoke can be told as such. A take-out only store front opened up in 2008 on 14th Street. Blogs raved. Diners flocked. Prices went up. Two more locations opened. The first, at 111 MacDougal Street, generates traffic from tipsy NYU students. I wish I had an Artichoke two blocks from my dorm when I was in college. The second, at 114 10th Avenue, attracts clientele from the meatpacking district. It's no coincidence that Artichoke has been opening up in spots where there is heavy nightlife traffic. Their pizza tastes best when you're drunk.
Although I'm writing this article after hosting a Pizza Club at their 10th Avenue location, my thoughts about the food are based on years of grabbing slices from their 14th Street storefront. The 10th Avenue shop is the only location that has seating, and on an early Sunday evening in April we watched the space converted from a child's birthday party into a trendy pizza joint in a matter of minutes. There's room for about 60 people in the restaurant, which also features a bar, and it was full by the time we left around 8PM. The pizzas are made in the back of the restaurant.
One thing that has always disappointed me about Artichoke's 14th Street location is that the pies are never fresh. They're always pre-made and slices are shoved back into the oven to be reheated. There is no need for this at a place with so much foot traffic. The part of the pizza that always baffles me the most at Artichoke is the crust. Sometimes you'll get a crunchy, crispy completely burnt crust. While other times you'll get a more chewy, foldable crust. To this day I'm not sure what the standard is.
At Pizza Club, we ordered four different pies: a Margherita ($26), an Artichoke ($28), a Meatball Parm ($27) and a White ($26). It's worth noting that there are eight pies on the menu (the others are a Sicilian Pie, a Crab Pie, a Burnt Anchovy Pie, and a Staten Island Pie featuring meatballs and ricotta cheese). The Artichoke storefront on 14th Street only serves four pies: Marghterita, Artichoke, Crab, and Sicilian.
(olive oil, plum tomato, fresh basil, an a blend of cheeses)
(artichoke hearts, spinach, cream sauce, mozzarella, pecorino romano)
Meatball Parm Pie
(homemade meatballs, cooked tomato sauce, and mozzarella cheese)
White Pie
(ricotta, mozzarella, pecorino romano cheeses)
(ricotta, mozzarella, pecorino romano cheeses)
The Margherita pizza has always been my favorite at Artichoke. It's like nothing I've ever tasted before. Although I mentioned that it can be inconsistent, the ingredients are always solid. It's thick. It's filling. And you might feel like your arteries are clogging up. But boy is it delicious. They're always generous with their basil which is great. And the mysterious blend of cheeses they use, gives the pie some nice flavor. When I send people to Artichoke, I send them there for this pie.
After that it's downhill. The Artichoke pie, which is their signature pie, is too heavy. It tastes like someone poured a bowl of spinach artichoke dip on top of a thick piece of bread. If someone you're with orders it, take a bite. Or even two. But a full slice is almost too much. It's innovative and you won't taste anything like it elsewhere in the city. But it's hard to imagine that too many people consistently go to Artichoke and order this slice. It's the kind of thing I'd eat once a year.
The Meatball Parm Pie is exclusive to Aritchoke's 10th Avenue location. It's surprisingly solid. It tastes like the Margherita pie, which I love, with high quality meatballs on it instead of basil. I'm usually not a huge fan of pizza with meatballs, but the consensus at our table was that this would be worth ordering again.
The same cannot be said for their White Pie. It was horrifically bad. The ricotta was not flavorful -- and as the main ingredient on this pie -- made it difficult to eat. The mozzarella used at Artichoke is so tasty and fresh that I'd love to see a pie more prominently highlighting it -- instead of ricotta.
It will be interesting to see what happens to the Artichoke brand in the coming years. You can be certain they'll be expanding beyond their three Manhattan locations. Artichoke would work in other cities as well. In fact, I could see it being a nice alternative to Domino's and Pizza Hut in small towns across the country. It's upsetting, that after three years in business, that the place isn't a little more consistent.
When Artichoke first opened on 14th Street they had three pies. It's clear there was a need to expand the 10th Avenue menu since they're now operating a full-fledged restaurant, but the additional offerings don't really live up to pizza I fell in love with back in 2008. But head over to Artichoke and go see for yourself. Hopefully, you'll catch them on a day when their pies are right on the money.

PLANT FOOD Helping you fertilize properly

PLANT FOOD Do you really need a specialized plant food for everything that grows? Maybe not. But if you want the biggest, the most beautiful in color, better production, more flowers, more greenery, quicker growing, a plant that can carry it's head high above the others… you better think about some plant food.
Well maybe the answer really lies in the right plant food at the right time. Why not just use nitrogen; Isn't that the only ingredient needed anyway? The truth of the matter is that plants need different ratios and different nutrients at selected stages. For instance, roots need to grow fast and develop a plants immunity system before thick foliage (leaves), fruit, or flowers ever form.
You should adjust your plant food by changing as the cycles set in. Flowers bursting into full bloom on spindly stems don't last long. Fruits and vegetables need strong vines and foliage to keep the food moving on a continual basis.
The grass may be greener with just nitrogen, but is it healthy enough to fight off disease and weather damage? Professional agronomists know the importance and the difference concerning using the right plant food. In many ways they are no different than a nutritionist. Years of study and research amounts has boiled down to providing today's gardeners and homeowners with an easy to use product that takes the guess work out for the homeowner with or without the green thumb.

The Tinkerous Toddler has taken very well to the Olympics or rather the Lympics as she has re-named them. I've tried to correct her, but she most emphatically told me that it was I who was wrong. I daren't argue, she is a very strong-minded young lady at the moment.
Talking of strong-minded ladies, how amazing was it to watch Jessica Ennis not just win, but totally smash her way to gold in the Heptathlon at London 2012! And don't get me started on Mo Farrah, what a guy. I was literally on the edge of my seat as he did his final sprint.
The brilliant thing for us is that though we, like a gazillion others, didn't manage to get tickets to the athletics, we can stand on our balcony and at least share in the whoops and cheers as they get carried on the wind from the Olympic Stadium.
We've been making the most of the BT London Live zone in Victoria Park to get us really into the Olympic spirit. The Tinkerous Toddler loved going up in the Viewing Wheel so much that she rail-roaded her Grandpa straight to it when he came to pay a visit a couple of days back.
Alongside watching the latest Olympic action on the big screens, we also caught a performance from one Rasta Mouse and his Easy Crew, which pleased TT as much as the viewing wheel. We all had a little dance as they gently swayed their way through their set.
Sad to say, that little dance was one of the most energetic things I've done in the last week. It's amazing how having the Olympic Games in the 'hood has turned me into a massive couch potato. Oh the irony of it.
As I've alluded to more than once in the last few weeks, we really weren't sure what to expect when the Olympics started. But the reality so far has been just lovely. The Olympics have brought with them early daily postal deliveries, early morning rubbish collections, a massive decrease in traffic on the roads, copious amounts of parking spaces in a usually hard to park area… oh hang on a minute, I suppose I should be focusing on the sport!!
I do get a sense that these Games really are proving to be a success, not just because Team GB is cleaning up on the medals front, but because the goals of sustainability and legacy really do look like they will be met. There's the physical legacy of the buildings, facilities and the regeneration, but there's also a great sense that Team GB are leaving a legacy of success for current and future generations to emulate.
And as I finish writing this post, I've just witnessed Andy Murray win GOLD and BEAT Federer. I don't even like tennis, but who could deny that this is a magical moment. Boy oh boy, these Games, The London 2012 Olympic Games really are something else. To steal a line from the Olympic brand sponsor that I wholly disapprove of… I'm lovin' it!

Waterloo Evening Courier
July 12, 1919, Waterloo, Iowa
Airplane Lured Bees.
Popular Bluff, Mo.
One of the largest apiaries in the state was robbed of half its million bees recently when an airplane from Park Field, Tenn., Passed over the bee farm of Martin Polk, near
Patterson, Mo., with a large bouquet of magnolias. Scenting the rich fragrance of the flowers, the bees swarmed from their hives and began the pursuit of the sugar-scented airplane, which was on the way to the funeral of a former lieutenant of aviation. Fully a million bees are estimated to have followed the airplane. When last seen the bees, forming a large cloud against the sky, were pursuing the plane in a westward direction. They are known to have followed the plane at least 20 miles, and they have not returned to Popular Bluff yet.

University awards first Primary Mathematics Specialist Teacher Post Graduate Certificate
31 July 2012
Canterbury Christ Church University has awarded the first 70 primary school teachers in Kent, Essex and Medway with a specialist Post Graduate Certificate in Primary Mathematics.
Teachers who were awarded their MaST certificates at an event earlier this month
The completion of the Mathematics Specialist Teacher (MaST) programme follows recent reports that highlighted the need for more primary teachers with specialist knowledge, particularly in maths.
The University is one of the first in the country to run the two year, part-time certificate which comprises of teachers undertaking a dedicated programme to deepen their subject knowledge of primary mathematics. As a result, the cohort will be among the first teachers in the country to have a MaST (Mathematics Specialist Teacher) title, recognised by the Department of Education.
Gina Donaldson, Senior Lecturer in Post Graduate Initial Teacher Education at Canterbury Christ Church University, said: "These specialist teachers show a deep understanding of mathematics and how young children learn the subject. We're delighted to be leading the way with this programme which will add 70 specialist primary maths teachers to schools in the area helping to improve the standards of mathematics teaching across our region."
Local authorities across Kent, Medway and Essex have collaborated with the University throughout the programme, whilst the project has also been recognised by the Government in their paper, The Importance of Teaching 2010, as a significant part in raising standards in primary mathematics.
The certificate also enables teachers to critically analyse the teaching and learning of mathematics whilst developing their skills of mentoring and coaching to work alongside their colleagues in order to improve the learning of all children in their schools.
The teachers were congratulated at a special event at the University this month and presented with their Post Graduate Certificate.

From Yorkshire to Northamptonshire to rural Lincolnshire, I eventually ended up at the University of Leeds and completed a BA and an MA in the English Department there. A year of work followed, after which I decided to return to academia, and spent three years at Royal Holloway, University of London, studying for a PhD. This was awarded towards the end of 2002, and my thesis explored the ways in which Islam and the Ottoman Empire were understood in early modern English culture - particularly how the 'terrible turk' was represented on the professional stage. Almost immediately upon completing the PhD I took up a Visiting Scholarship at the University of Leiden in The Netherlands. For three and a half cold but productive months I skated on canals, took courses in early Dutch, worked in the National Archives in The Hague, and taught on the MA in European Expansion. Upon my return I continued researching as Visiting Scholar at the Centre for Editing Lives and Letters at Queen Mary, University of London, for a few months in the summer of 2003, after which I took up a position as Lecturer in English Literature at the University of Sussex. I became Professor of Early Modern Studies in early 2013.
A while back I was interviewed on the Radio 3 documentary 'Courting the East', and some time before that I appeared on the Channel Four documentary 'Great British Islam'. More recently I co-curated the 'East-West: Objects Between Cultures' exhibition at Tate Britain - see http://www.tate.org.uk/britain/exhibitions/eastwest/default.shtm - and curated the opening section of the Jamestown-Yorktown 'World of 1607' exhibition, celebrating the 400 year anniversary of the first American colonies - for more details, see http://www.jamestown2007.org. Over the past couple of years I have given talks and papers in various capacities at the Globe Theatre, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the National Maritime Museum, Tate Britain, the Universities of Aberystwyth, Basle, Bangor, Berlin, Copenhagen, Leeds, Montpellier, Oxford, Birkbeck, University of London, Queen Mary, University of London, Trinity College Dublin and the Max Planck Institute in Florence. I used to live in Brighton, then upgraded to Hove and now have reached the giddy heights of Polegate, on the edge of the South Downs. However I still don't quite have a view of the sea.
Professor of Early Modern Studies
Director of Student Experience
Early Modern English Literature and History, including notions of 'otherness' which concern cultural, racial and religious difference - particularly in reference to Islam.
One of my recently completed research students worked on witchcraft and the book trade with AHRC funding; another studied early modern English perceptions of Persia and sectarian divisions within Islam with a scholarship from the Pakistan Higher Education Commission. Of my current research students, one works on early modern conceptions of 'trash'; another on English perceptions of the Qur'an between 1649 and 1734; and another on the early modern drama collection at Petworth House. I would be very interested to hear from any prospective students who wish to study in these fields.
In the Spring term of 2013 I am teaching the final year undergraduate course 'Islam, Literature and 'The West'', the second year drama course 'Early Modern Drama and Contemporary Theatre' and the MA course 'Race and Colonialism in Early Modern Literature and Culture'.

So, CP has a system that has much less eye-candy and is no faster than SL. Maybe it's mobility and accessibility will help, but the moment that they start adding complex meshes and avatar detail this will really hit bandwidth. So they have to stay with cartoony avatars - no bad thing, but then lots of competitors look the same. There are already better 'social' VWs out there and as it looks like CP will not exactly be a 'party' place, it would be hard for it to compete. Drawing has become popular in apps but there is a big jump from that to building meshes, maybe too big. It will add a marketplace, which would be what the majority of users would use (as in SL) for new stuff. So will new (fancier but laggier) content set it aside from other simple VWs/games with a similar model and great sociability. Or will it become inhabited by SLers and very few other people? Pricing, marketing and direction should answer that question. | |

At the end of the day, I think the SL and CP comparisons are moot. I don't get the impression that the average SL user is who they are trying to build this for. They want the average FB user/consumer. I can see CP appealing to that group. | |

SL Join Date: 06/12/08 | A lot depends on your CPU - more so than SL probably. Put it on an Atom chip and watch it suffer. CP needs to appeal to the tablet/smartphone market - it can't at the moment. Windows 8 WILL be a game changer there - and I have a feeling that LL know that. |

| Argh. All this "Facebook is the WORST EVER I DONT USE IT BECAUSE IM SO CLEVER" attitude on this thread is giving me heartburn. Get over yourselves? Two sites I frequent have this prevailing "facebook is useless and terrible and evil" attitude: Slashdot, a spot not really known for getting consumer tech (the ipod is lame), and Second Life, a spot known for obsessive compulsive anonymity. I'm not sure if you guys realized? But social networks are actually pretty useful. I know! It's evil! They're selling your soul to Kraft Mac&Cheese! They're spying on your dog! THEY'RE EATING YOUR BABIES! Know what? I don't care. Facebook is a very useful tool to keep in contact with people that I find interesting that I don't happen to run into every day of my 9-5 job. Facebook wants to track what I do online to sell me shit? Good luck - Adblock has been installed on this computer since day one, I'm as un-monetized as a new baby in outer Mongolia. I know, you're so clever, and too hip to deal with the unwashed masses on Facebook. We get it. You're part of the creative and hip and fancy class and the mouth-breathing hunt-and-peck typists on facebook are too lowbrow. It really isn't difficult to get on Facebook with a psuedonym. I've got a dozen non-SL friends that have such obviously dumb names as "None YoBizness", "Pook LaDuke", "Hard Liquor" and others - they've been using facebook for at least 3-4 years without even a slap on the wrist for using a fake name. I have friends that change their first, and last, names as often as facebook allows them to. The only purges you hear about are from chest-thumping bloggers with axes to grind and ads to sell. I mean for chrissakes, I've had a joke account on Facebook for at least 3 years that has the name "Fancypants Poultry" - it's obviously a fake account, the only profile picture is one of a ninja turtle mask, and he hails from QWERUQWTIU University, in northern Djibouti. Facebook doesn't even realize he's there. TL;DR get over yourselves, facebook isn't going to eat your family.

SL Join Date: 2008 | Despite having difficulties with specular maps, Cloud Party's shader system is a welcome improvement over the drudgery of preparing light maps for Second Life. I'm excited about the possibilities - particularly with the implementation of a viable combat system based on what appears to be a more robust physics engine. Also, according to Jimb, should your Facebook account be terminated as a result of policy violations, your Cloud Party account will not be rendered null and void. Additional login options will be made available provided that you supplied a valid e-mail address during sign-up. Following the completion of the tutorial and laying claim to one of the homes located in the Sudden Lake region, I elected to forgo the interior decoration phase given my poor fashion sense. I did, however, opt to personalize my house with a roof "accessory" (a Second Life mesh project I completed last year). |

So, I met someone I knew from Blue Mars in Cloud Party today, and he wanted to cash out his Blue Mars dollars. Since I still sell clothes there, I jacked up the price of a pair of shoes to what his balance was, which he then bought, then sent him Linden $, which he wanted. We did this while chatting in IM in Cloud Party. Playing in multiple worlds can be fun. | |

With appropriate bump maps and so forth you can get away with less geometry that looks better than in SL anyway. It's how actual game engines used by actual game developers have gotten away with making games look good on toasters for years. | |

SL Join Date: Jan 2007 | I get a lot of normals spiking out into the distance when I use CP. Like, half my avatar and half of the objects around me are stretching way out to a point in the distance all the time. I'm on Google Chrome and my graphics drivers are up to date. I'm guessing it might be a hardware issue? I'm on 64 bit Windows 7 with an Athelon II x4, 6Gb of RAM and a crappy on board Raedon 3000 graphics card. It's a cheap Lennovo H405 without any upgrades or hardware changes on it. By the way, we really should come up with a better acronym than CP. CP stands for Child Pornography in some places, LOL. EDIT: I ran CCleaner to clear my browser cache and gave my system a reboot and the stretched normal problem is not happening but I'm missing normals all over the place now. I really hope it's not that I need better hardware. Does anybody have a link to any kind of KB or wiki for cloud party? Last edited by bubblesort; 06-25-2012 at 04:27 AM. |

Or are they just for fun? Sure, people can get away with fake accounts for however long, but the fact of the matter is that Facebook HAS shut down hundreds, maybe thousands,of accounts because of non-RL info. A large chunk of that was specific to SL accounts. Call me crazy, but if someone (from SL) wants to start a FB account based on their SL name (not inclusive of their RL info), especially for business reasons, I'm guessing that FB (having closed accounts because they were based on SL names) wouldn't be their first stop for a reliable service. And if your response is still, "get over it", then you're just exercising ignorance in the face of sound business practice. (Even if it is just to seem "flippantly cool".) | |

Go ahead, be a cartoon if you want. It's cool, I'll probably have a toon or two myself. When I have a choice I'm not going to do business with a cartoon, though.

You and your friends were only able to sign up under names like "Fancypants Poultry" and choose fake college names because you did so 3 years ago. Try to do it today and you'll be stopped from registering at the door and asked to enter a different name before you can even pass the registration form. It wouldn't even let me sign up as "Adeon Writer" - it correctly allowed Adeon as a first name, as that is a real Welsh male name, but it would not allow me to use the last name "Writer" - despite the fact that I know real people with that surname. I had to, ironically, lie about my name to get in the door. | |

Hawaiian Bath & Body is a new line of beauty products I just discovered that has green, chemical-free, yummy smelling soaps, body washes, mists, scrubs, oils, lotions and lip therapy. Their natural skin care products are handcrafted on the North Shore of Oahu and contain some of the most enticing ingredients like Waialua coffee and tangerines and Big Island guava. They also use organic ingredients like organic oatmeal, rice flour and blue cornmeal. These products are going to blow you away with their amazing scents that are completely natural and yummy. If you have a poor sniffer (a.k.a. a poor sense of smell) then I flick a tear on your behalf. These smells are too good to miss out on!
Products I highly recommend:
Lavender Kukui Oil ($16): Pure lavender essential oil is blended with kukui nut oil to create this amazing beauty product. It will not clog your pores and it's an ideal facial moisturizer and anti-aging serum. It smells very calming and feminine. Use this after you wash your face before you go to bed. The Vitamin E in this pretty smelling oil will help fight wrinkles and make your skin uber soft. Vitamin E is also a great way to help get rid of scars.
Island Secret Tropical Wash ($12.49): This is the yummiest smelling body wash in the universe. I said it. If you long to vacation in Hawaii and have never been, allow this tropical body wash to take you there. The smell of pineapples, mangoes and coconuts = olfactory bliss. You're going to smell like a tropical smoothie while you bathe and this might lead to longer shower sessions. This wash also makes a great hand soap. Hand washing is going to get pretty exciting.
Mango Papaya Soap ($5.49): I came so close to licking this bar of soap but I didn't. It smells divine. Seriously, this is the nectar of the gods in soap form. The ground papaya seeds gently exfoliate you skin while coconut, palm, soybean, olive, macadamia nut and kukui nut oils (which contain Vitamins A, E, C and essential fatty acids) moisturize, protect and sooth your skin. I just want to quickly say that all of their soaps are a-m-a-z-i-n-g so even though I chose to feature the mango papaya soap I want to make it clear that I had a very hard time singling out this one soap.
Hawaiian Bath & Body also allows you to create your very own custom soap and lip balms for your wedding, baby shower or other special occasion. This is a great idea to help spread the notion of being green at your upcoming events! Check out their website for more details.

Inmate Charged With 6 More Felony Domestic Offenses
Jason Morris, who is already serving a year at the ACI, is charged with six more felony counts for violating a no-contact order.
Unless otherwise noted, information about the following incidents was supplied by the South Kingstown Police Department. An arrest does not indicate a conviction.
Jason M. Morris, 27, of the ACI in Cranston and formerly of Wakefield, was arrested at about 9:19 a.m. on Feb. 13 and charged with six felony counts of violating a no-contact order.
According to police, they received multiple complaints from a woman about Morris' behavior. The woman said that between Jan. 9 and Feb. 12, Morris had made multiple attempts to contact her.
Police said that the woman provided them with letters from Morris that mentioned her. Police also found calls logged from the ACI to the woman's home, from a family member of Morris to the victim, and from a girlfriend of a fellow inmate to the victim.
According to police, after investigating all of these were construed as violations of a no-contact order between Morris and the victim, and he was charged with six additional felonies.
Police noted that Morris is currently serving a year at the ACI for domestic offenses against the same victim, and has at least six previous domestic convictions.
South Kingstown police arrested Morris for similar charges in December and October. Felony screening for his most recent arrests is scheduled for March 26. Morris has 22 entries on the online database, dating back to 2004, for various offenses ranging from disorderly conduct to assault and violating protective orders.
Unless otherwise noted, the information for this article was compiled from South Kingstown police reports, which are available for review by any member of the public at their headquarters. If we're missing a call or report you're interested in knowing about, feel free to leave a comment or to send Local Editor Stephen Greenwell a message at email@example.com.

MARYSVILLE, CA - Two people were killed after a Sprint car lost control at the Marysville Raceway Park Saturday evening.
An announcer at the track Steven Blakesley told ABC News the car, driven by Chase Johnson, had apparent mechanical problems and did not make the corner at turn 1. The car hit the left wall and then crashed into the two victims.
The Yuba County Sheriff's Department identified the people killed in the accident as 68-year-old Dale Wondergem, Jr. of Grass Valley and 14-year-old Marcus Johnson of Santa Rosa.
The Yuba County Sheriff's Department said Wondergem was pronounced dead at the scene. Johnson was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The sheriff's department said no other people were injured.
Both Johnson and Wondergem were connected to race teams and had a legitimate reason to be in the pit area, sheriff's officials said.
Wondergem was described by witnesses as the owner of a race car at the track, but he was not the owner of Johnson's car.
Marcus Johnson was the cousin of the driver Chase Johnson. It was reported that Marcus was not an official member of Chase Johnson's pit crew. His presence in the pit area is being investigated, sheriff's officials said.
The crash happened during hot laps, which started at 6 p.m. The race was scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m.
The cause of the accident is under investigation.
TWITTER: @Steven Blakesley
Crowds were at the park for the California Sprint Car Civil War Series. Events at the raceway were cancelled after the crash.
The 30 teams who entered in the race donated their combined entrance fee of around $10,000 to the families of the victims, Blakesley told ABC News.
On its Facebook page, the Marysville Raceway Park posted, "Our thoughts and deepest prayers go out to everyone. Out of respect we will not elaborate on details. We ask everyone to respect each other and the families."

What Are Blue Spots on My Legs And What is the Remedy?
I'm 16 and Blue Spots Are on my Legs. Today I was out walking around alot more than usual (7am-12). I came home and my legs were hurting so I looked down and there are blue rings around my ankles and my knees are blue with a few blotches here and there. My legs have been elevated for a bit but they are still a bit blue. PS: I'm 90lb, 5'3" but I eat alot I'm not very active during the summer I had surgery for fibroidadenoma 2 months ago when I was 15
Photos are unbelievably helpful.

Dear Sir or Madam, I wanted to write this letter because I am worried about the proposed Business Opportunity Rule R511993. I think this ruling could have a big effect on my being an Arbonne Independent Consultant. I know that it's the FTC's job to protect people from bad practices, but some of the proposed rules will make it very hard for me to sell products and sponsor people into the business. I am confused and concerned about having to wait seven days to sign up a new consultant. People could possibly think that there is something wrong and having to wait could harm my ability to continue to grow my business. I think it would be time consuming to keep record of each prospect I talk to and when to call them back. I also think that the proposed rule requiring the release of information regarding lawsuits seem unfair. If Arbonne has done nothing wrong and was found not guilty in a lawsuit, I'm afraid of the possibility of how that might hinder my business. The last thing that I have concerns about is the proposed ruling about having to disclose a minimum of 10 prior Independent Consultants nearest to the prospective Consultant. I would have to go through the corporate office in California and wait for them to send me the list. I have to say that I would not feel comfortable giving out personal information about individuals to people they do not even know. I have had people ask me if I will be giving out their information and I am always glad to say no. I think with the problems of identity theft, future prospects and other buyers will be very concerned about their personal information being given out. I have been an Arbonne Consultant for more than two years. I started my business with Arbonne because I had three children, had gone through a divorce and was working two jobs and barely getting by. I saw this business as an opportunity to be home with my children, and I could create an income from home. Since staring my Arbonne business I have been able to retire from both jobs and be at home with my kids. Developing a team has been amazing and together we are making a difference for our families. I appreciate your work in protecting consumers, but I believe these proposed rulings would make it hard on network marketers like me. I truly hope that there are other ways to work out these issues. Thank you for your understanding. Sincerely, Vickie Cruz
