Now that all the reviews, news (not that there was a ton of it) and features of the Toronto International Film Festival have been digested, why not take a little time out and check out indieWIRE's images from the fest in good ole' iPOP. Some attendees said they felt the "traffic" and events were comparatively lighter this year, and maybe that was true. But that certainly doesn't mean that a good chunk of industry, press, celebs and would-be crashers were hitting the hay at 10:30 every night! And some of iW's annual TIFF events still went off without a recessionary hitch, including Sony Classics and IFC Films' annual dinners, which were still the must attends of the evening. Tom Ford ("A Single Man") and Lee Daniels ("Precious") each had celebrity-filled parties for their films, and they were not the tacky obnoxiously crowded affairs with star guests neatly tucked away in VIP sections sort of parties sponsored by some nasty watered down vodka. They were truly classy events! But even some of the casual hanging out at bar parties were fun, including the SXSW event with Karaoke - which more then one person told us was their fest fave.
So browse around the captions below and click the link to view the full photo from iPOP, or you can view indieWIRE's photo coverage of the 2009 TIFF from our Toronto iPOP pages. You can also view other iPOP galleries from a slew of film festivals and parties this year in the iPOP Galleries. Chill out, grab a drink and enjoy...

Sony Classics Dinner Brings out the Starrage
Celebs turned out as is tradition for Sony Pictures Classics' dinner celebrating their films screening in Toronto. Penelope Cruz ("Broken Embraces") did an extended drive-by Friday night since she was heading to the airport, and met up with fellow actors Michael Sheen from "The Damned United," Carey Mulligan ("An Education") and Peter Sarsgaard, also from "An Education." (Not pictured are Cruz's cool flaring out bellbottoms). View the Full photo.
iW Says: Go See "A Prophet"
French director Jacques Audiard's (center) "A Prophet" was one of our favorite films in Cannes this past May. And quite honestly, we were a bit shocked it didn't make this year's New York Film Festival line up... The clever hard-nosed gangster film set in a French prison blew away audiences there and even won won the festival's Grand Prix prize and attendees compared it constantly to Scorsese's "Goodfellas." Oh well, NYFF's loss is TIFF's gain we suppose. Pictured with Audiard is the film's star, splendidly played by Tahar Rahim (left) and writer, Thomas Bidegain. View the Full photo.
Lone and Michael at Dinner
Sony Classics hosted its annual dinner in Toronto celebrating their TIFF entries Friday night. SPC's co-president Michael Barker (pictured) worked the crowd, along with his fellow co-prexy (to be Varietyish about it) Tom Bernard, greeting filmmakers and their accompanying celebs. Danish filmmaker Lone Scherfig joined the evening. Her film, "An Education" - about a young promising student (Carey Mulligan) who aspires to attend Oxford until a romance with an older gentleman (played by Peter Saarsgard) threatens to turn her life upside down - is screening in TIFF's Special Presentations section. View the Full photo.
"Education" Scribe Hornby At Sony Classics Dinner

The Gilliams In Toronto
"The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" director Terry Gilliam was joined by his daughter Amy Gilliam at a dinner in Toronto's Yorkville neighbourhood this weekend. Gilliam's latest film - featuring Heath Ledger's final performance - is having its North American premiere at the festival this Friday, September 18th. View the Full photo.
Dafoe and Sehring Bring "Antichrist" to Toronto
Actor Willem Dafoe with IFC Entertainment president Jonathan Sehring Thursday night in Toronto attended the after-party following the North American premiere of Lars Von Trier's controversial "Antichrist." The moody, dark thriller offered an interesting contrast to the party (for those who actually went to the screening then to the party) with the sponsored venue's upbeat club thump-a-thump music, scantily clad attendees and offers of free samples of various make up etc. for women (at least that seemed the intention). Dafoe hung out with IFCers and other guests in a roped off area in the VIP, then came out for a round of photos with Sehring when leaving. Friday morning he showed up early for a Q&A with Von Trier via satellite from Copenhagen. The Danish director was quite giddy and cracked jokes during the 50 minute chat with journalists and film fans in downtown Toronto. View the Full photo.

Lee Daniels and Sapphire at "Precious" cocktails
"Precious: Based on the Novel by Sapphire" director Lee Daniels with author Sapphire herself tonight (Sunday) at a cocktail party at the Royal Ontario Museum prior to the film's screening at the Toronto International Film Festival. Mariah Carey, actress Gabourey 'Gabby' Sidibe, Mary J. Blige and Sherri Shepherd were among the attendees at the soiree, though some seemed disappointed Oprah was a no show, though she did show up at the press conference early morning at the Four Seasons Hotel. But all's good, the cocktail party was very nice and done well. Cheers! See you at the NYFF premiere. View the Full photo.
Mariah Pushes "Precious" in Toronto
Mariah Carey in Toronto for a pre-screening cocktail party for "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire" in which she plays a decidedly un-glam part as a social worker. And might we add, did a great job. When we first saw the film in Sundance (where it won multiple awards) we didn't immediately recognize her minus all the pop star trappings. Director Lee Daniels must be a good friends with the singer, because she's definitely transformed in this film. She along with Mary J. Blige were in Canada in support of the film, and even skipped the MTV Video Music Awards in New York the same evening. View the Full photo.
"Precious" incarnate walks the red carpet
It's probably a bit of a challenge to break out with your own personality under the bright lights when you're in the same project with the likes of Oprah, Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige not to mention Sundance best actress winner Mo'Nique (who plays - beautifully - the biggest bitch mother to hit the screen in ages), but Gabourey Sidibe truly holds her own in the film - in fact, did a bang up job. Here she is on the red carpet Sunday evening for a pre-gala screening cocktail party at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto in celebration of "Precious", directed by Lee Daniels. View the Full photo.
Blige to Sing for "Precious?"
Mary J. Blige was in Toronto Sunday along with the other big stars (both present and future - hopefully) with Lee Daniels' "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire." Blige joined Daniels and others from the film at the Royal Ontario Museum prior to the film's screening Sunday night. The rumor (well one of them anyway) was that Blige is set to write a new song for the film... View the Full photo.
Good Times with IFC
IFC Films hosted their annual dinner for their filmmakers and friends in Toronto Monday night, with a great turnout as usual. Before sitting to dinner, invitees schmoozed and chatted (same thing?) over wine and good times. Among the crowd were "Vincere" actor Filippo Timi (he plays Benito Mussolini in the Marco Bellocchio directed film about the Italian dictator and their son) hanging out with Sundance documentary programmer, David Courier. View the Full photo.
Barenholtz and Morton do Karaoke in Toronto
The SXSW Film Festival hosted a nice soiree complete with karaoke (hosted by Film Sales Company's Michael Lerman who ran a tight ship) in Toronto Tuesday night. Fest attendees picked songs ranging from classic punk (so weird to use 'classic' and 'punk' in the same context, but there you go) to country, metal, pop and '80s alterna - which was the choice of director/actress Samantha Morton, who attended the festivities with pal, producer Ben Barenholtz. Morton went for Tears for Fears, but pretty much did her own thing while on stage as the music played. She attended TIFF with her directorial debut, "The Unloved," screening in the festival's Discovery section. The film is inspired by her own childhood which was spent in the care of social services for most of her childhood until she was eighteen. View the Full photo.
The Coens "Serious" Bash at TIFF
One of the nicest parties of the Toronto International Film Festival (and there were a few others despite this mother fucker recession), Focus Features had a great party last week for the Coen brothers ' "A Serious Man." We were happy to get a pic: Alan Lennick, Sari Lennick (co star of film), Joel Coen, Sheila Wagner. The word on the street was that the movie is really good and it almost seemed like the knives were out for it - but apparently it's good. View the Full photo.
All Style all the Time at Ford Party
"A Single Man" director Tom Ford (center) with Clive Owen and Julianne Moore at the party for Ford's film in Toronto. Definitely one of the most stylish (of course) parties of the festival, Ford used a large in a gallery that's across the street from the Royal Ontario Museum, but apparently had the entire room transformed. So the rumor goes, he had the walls painted and carpet brought in to reflect his black and white motif - and even if this isn't all true, it makes for a good story - but we're not making it up. The crowd was good looking and stylish, and mostly dressed up. We heard the next day that some calls were made to some guests admonishing them for showing up in casual wear, but it was probably just a joke. Even better dressed, was the staff, who clearly just happened to be in town for an Abercrombie & Fitch shoot, and just happened to fall into coats & ties for the Ford party... Anyway, it was too much! (But in a good way). View the Full photo.
The New York Times In Toronto
Actor Michael Sheen (center) joins the New York Times VP Lou Fabrizio, as well as Times staff Barbara Jackson, Roberta Nordman and Entertainment Editor Lorne Manley at a Cocktail Party at C5 Restaurant earlier this week in Toronto. View the Full photo.
Danny and Tilda Take On The Talent Lab
Danny Boyle and Tilda Swinton participated in the fourth day of the Toronto International Film Festival's Talent Lab. Boyle served as a "governor" at the lab, interacting with and teaching the 25 workshop participants from around the world. Swinton - in Toronto promoting her film "I Am Love" - stopped in as a guest speaker. View the Full photo. [Image courtesy of WireImage.]
Drew and Ellen "Whip It" Good
"Whip It!" director Drew Barrymore and star Ellen Page celebrate the film's premiere at an after-party at Toronto's Tattoo Rock Parlor. The film - Barrymore's directorial debut - was met with a warm response at the festival, and is being released by Fox Searchlight this October. View the Full photo. [Photo courtesy of WireImage].
Celebrating "Chloe" In Toronto

Oooh, You're an Angel: Caro's "The Vintner's Luck"
Can you say, "Haaawwwwwwtt??" French actors Jeremie Renier and Gaspard Ulliel found themselves in a production of New Zealand director Niki Caro's ("Wale Rider") latest, "The Vintner's Luck," which is screening in the Special Presentations section of TIFF. OK, the film is set in France. Ulliel plays an Angel who sort of "guides" Renier's character, a struggling wine grower in early 19th century rural France. Their relationship is complicated, and at one point their quasi-sexual (the one has wings being an Angel and all...) fly-around didn't quite give the full money shot, but it was still nice to see all the same. The two are pictured here over the weekend at a party hosted by the New Zealand Film Commission. View the Full photo.
Korine "Humps" at Dinner
"Trash Humpers" director Harmony Korine joins the crowd at IFC Films' dinner during the Toronto International Film Festival this week. The director (center) told indieWIRE his latest was inspired from "artifacts found in an attic or a videotape buried in a ditch." Hanging with Korine as people were getting seated were Charles-Marie Anthonioz (part of the producer's team), his wife Rachel and IFC Films' Ryan Werner. View the Full photo.
One "Mother" of a Movie at TIFF!
More from TIFF '09: For those who didn't get a chance to catch the film in Cannes, Quebecois filmmaker Xavier Dolan has a winner with his beautifully crafted "I Killed My Mother," which had great audience response after a packed screening. Dolan (center) got all dolled up for the screening and lively Q&A afterward. here Films will release the film in the U.S. - though we're not exactly sure when that will be. Dolan is seen here with the distributor's Jonathon Aubry and Mark Reinhart. View the Full photo.
Brit Actors at NYT party in Toronto
More from TIFF '09: The New York Times hosted an early evening bash at the stately Royal Ontario Museum, which naturally brought out a cross-section of who's who in town for the festival last week. British actors Bill Nighy (who stars in Stephen Poliakoff's pre-WWII drama "Glorious 39") and Michael Sheen (who stars in Tom Hooper's "The Damned United") were among the Brits who attended. View the Full photo.
NYT party in Toronto and the "Bright Stars"
More from TIFF '09: Hanging out at the New York Times party last week, "Bright Star" actor Paul Schneider with the film's producer, Jan Chapman. Schneider plays poet John Keats' best friend, Brown, in the film by Oscar-winner Jane Campion. The film, which screened at TIFF and is now in release through Apparition, centers on the close relationship the early 19th century poet had with Fanny Brawne. Schneider and Chapman joined the hordes at the party at the Royal Ontario Museum. View the Full photo.

Alexia Couture – A very unique story to tell everyoneRome Internships, Spring 2012
Studying abroad has been a wonderful experience full of new challenges that have taught me about myself and about a new culture. However, my experience has been set apart from most others' experiences. I believe this is true because along with classes, the language, the new culture, and the new friends, I also had a new job. My internship through IES gave my study abroad time something so unique and different. I have always been interested in the faults and assets of the education system in the U.S. Once I heard about the opportunity to work in an Italian high school assisting teaching English, I was faced with a difficult decision. Was I willing to give up more time while abroad in Rome? When I decided to do it, I still wasn't sure if I wanted to do it. Now, I can say that it was one of my best decisions abroad. Working in the high school was very difficult but very rewarding. My commute was 15 minutes on the metro. I was paired with the loveliest lady who made my overall time in Rome so much better. Cinzia, my prof in the high school, introduced me to her family and gave me so much guidance for my time at Rome. The students were typical teenagers. They were intrigued by me when I first got there but didn't say much. As the semester went on, I had obstacles. There were a lot of morning where I would wake up at 7 am and really not want to go to work. My bed was so comfortable. Then, I would muster up some energy and hurry to my internship. Some days were more difficult than others. Sometimes, Cinzia would leave me with the students for a long time. I couldn't control them. I would get frustrated and discouraged sometimes. Then, I would get in a conversation with just one student, and I would be okay again. Working in an Italian high school while abroad allowed me to get a unique experience. It was unexpected and difficult but rewarding and well-worth it. The internship may not be for everyone, but if someone wants to be closer with the Italian culture and learn more than any other study abroad student, he or she should get an internship. It was such an amazing opportunity to see an almost private view of the culture. And if anything, all of my friends and family from home were very impressed with me. So even if I didn't get something out of it, I did get a very unique story to tell everyone from home and connections with the Italian culture that I absolutely could not have gotten any other way.

Members of a small Virginia congregation worship the same way we were all brought into this world - naked, according to video from WWBT.
Even in February, when temperatures can average in the 20s, some attend completely naked, though others choose to go fully clothed or topless.
Pastor Parker tells WWBT that church members are here to find inner peace and that starts with accepting themselves.
"There's not a feeling that you have to be better than one another, physically," Parker says. "We're humans, we have scars, we have what we have...it's learning to love and accept that."

Blueriver steel buildings
Blueriver builds high quality custom designed steel-framed steel buildings across the UK that are affordable, quick to build, robust and secure. So if you looking for extra space or an additional building for your car, aeroplane, horses, family or industrial equipment or perhaps a new garage, or increased storage or workshops on your farm we can deliver it.
Our steel buildings come in almost any style or colour and can be tailor-made to the dimensions you require. They are perfect for equestrian stabling, dog kennels, agricultural buildings and barns, industrial sheds, garages, hangers for aviation, or storage among others. You can find examples of the range and quality of Blueriver's buildings that we have built across the UK and France throughout this site.
All our steel buildings are built to individual specifications using extremely strong, high-tensile steel and the portal frame methodology. Portal frame means less steel is needed for larger spaces, reducing both erection costs and construction times - giving you better buildings in less time at lower cost. The portal frame allows wide or high spaces to be spanned without interior walls or pillars giving open, accessible spaces able to take wide-winged aeroplanes, or bulky farm machinery such as combine harvesters, or tall-masted boats, or supplying a configurable space for process or production-lines.
The benefit of building in steel is that steel itself is extremely strong and secure, and with modern panels, buildings come in at lower cost than alternatives with more durability and lower maintenance. Walls can be insultated and windows and doors can be installed where you need them giving you light, airy workable spaces.
Blueriver Steel also help with design, location, site plans, construction and planning regulations for the steel buildings we design, so we aim to make the whole building process as smooth as possible. Give us a call on 01603 720245 or complete our contact form.
Featured Steel Building Case Studies:
Dairy Farm Building with Insulated Steel Walls
Agricultural Farm Dairy Unit supplied in 60mm wall and 60mm roof. The steel building is fire rated with insulation. View pictures of the building which is 6m wide x 12m long x 3m to eave with one roller door 3150 wide x 3000m high chain driven. Double insulated entrance door 1800mm wide x 2090mm high. Box profile exterior finish.

Family files medical malpractice after nurse accidentally cuts off baby's finger
The family of a 8-month old baby girl has filed a negligence lawsuit against a Florida hospital and nurse after the nurse accidentally amputated half of the baby's left pinky finger.
Veronica Olguin had taken her baby, Selena, who was three months old at the time of the incident, to Heart of Florida Regional Medical Center for treatment of a high fever and bronchitis. After a 3-day hospital stay, the baby was ready to be taken home and a nurse, Emily Anna Stutz, started cutting off a bandage off that had held the baby's IV. Mistakenly, she cut off the baby's finger with a pair of scissors.
Attempts to reattach the severed finger were unsuccessful due to the baby's age.
The family filed suit for emotional and psychological damages as well as developmental challenges Selena might have as she grows older. The young mother of this baby was obviously traumatized by what happened to her baby in the hospital.
Study finds 1 of 3 hospital patients are victims of a medical mistake
The journal Health Affairs published a study of "adverse events " -- medical errors -- last year which revealed that medical mistakes in the hospital setting are more common then one might think. In fact, one in three patients admitted to the hospital has been on the receiving end of a hospital mistake and medical errors are one of the leading causes of premature death and injury.
The most common hospital mistakes are foodborne illness, hospital-acquired infections, falls and bedsores. Less common mistakes include wrong-site surgeries and accidents such as this one.

02/15/2013, North Eleuthera
On Monday morning we were still in Hatchet Bay and it was still a bit breezy. So we continued with our plan to rent a car. We were able to obtain a car from Mr McLean at the gas station. the car was a bit used and had marginal tires, but the brakes worked well, even though the windows did not. The car at Twin Brothers was already reserved. We drove up to the Glass Window and got out to take pictures and watch the blow hole. This is a must see on the trip. The view and the whole experience is incredible. The area was originally a rock arch that collapsed over time. They built abroad bridge and during one of the hurricanes the roadway was actually shifted about seven feet. Check out the picture.
From there we went to just past the North Eleuthera airport to the end of the road and caught a water taxi to Harbor Island. On Harbor Island we rented a golf cart. We spent the day touring, visiting shops and had lunch at one of the resorts. Along the waterfront one open air bar had Sands beer three for $5 and they were very cold. (At the N Eleuthera airport they have Sands 3 for $4.50). We saw everything we wanted to see and were back to the car by 4 pm. It is not advisable to drive here after dark. Everyone drives very fast and they all drive on the wrong side of the road. Saturday night there was a fatal collision just north of Hatchet Bay. We drove through Gregory Town and Bluff on our way back and were still back in HB by 5:15. It was a day well spent.
Since the weather has settled for a few days we traveled back to Governors Harbor to complete our visit there. We had planned to stop at Alabaster Bay, but the south wind was still a bit brisk so we continued on to GH. We made a water run to the shore and invited the other three boats over for cocktails. Two of them showed up. The third boat, who will go unnamed, has been a pain in our space. In Hatchet Bay they tried to anchor on top of us and I had to "politely" request they move. It took them about an hour to anchor their ketch. They arrived about a half hour after us in GH and did the same thing, only closer this time. again, another "polite" request to get out of our space. Again, they took over an hour to set their anchor. They must have tried at least seven times to get the anchor to hold and tried two different anchors. Believe me, they were so close that I could document every action they took.
Wednesday we walked all through Cupids Cay and then hiked over the hill to the ocean side. It is supposed to be a two mile walk to the Levy Nature Preserve. It is every bit of that. We actually had a cabbie I had met earlier give us a ride the last half mile at no charge, although I did give him a tip. We had lunch at Tippys which is a little past the preserve. This restaurant was recommended by a shop owner in Rock Sound. Great location, good food and crowded. It is on a beautiful ocean beach. That side of the island is very upscale and you may forget you are in the Bahamas. Then we toured the preserve. It is a nice preserve with several trails to walk and a guide sheet to point out the various trees and birds. It was certainly worth the time to explore. We were tired at this point and hitchhiker when we got to the road. The girl who was our server at lunch picked us up and took us back to our dinghy. The people on the island are super nice.
Thursday morning we topped off our water tanks and then went to the internet cafe to surf the web on their internet to catch up on news. then we hitchhiked our way across the island to go to the beach for the afternoon. it was a calm day on the ocean and we had dolphin swim within 10 yards of us. The beach was beautiful, but not a shell to be had. We stopped at the Beach House Restaurant for a drink and then hitched a ride back to the harbor. Fishermen were selling there catch and we bought two lobsters for Friday night's dinner.
Then it was back to the boat for a Valentines Day dinner of Costco steaks on the grill.
Today it will be back to Hatchet Bay for weather protection and stone crabs. Hopefully Monday or Tuesday we will be headed for Spanish Wells.
We have noticed that Eleuthera sure does have a lot of very loud roosters!!

The fast ferry from Nassau entering the 90' wide cut at Hatchet Bay.
02/10/2013, Governor's Harbor
The bar at Mark's Grill in Governor's Harbor
The Harbor at Governor's Harbor
Governor's Harbor has been the highlight of the trip so far. GH is a nice place. We chose to anchor in Cupids Bay instead of the harbor. There were six boats in the harbor, but the cruising guide left me skeptical about holding and debris there. There are no mooring balls at either place, contrary to what the guide says. We are anchored in about 14' of water with another Beneteau that we met in Rock Sound. Access to shore is about the same from either anchorage. Holding seems good (1700 RPMs) in sand and very light grass.
Tomorrow is laundry and water replenishment day in the morning and then a planned walk to the other side of the island to the former Club Med beach which is supposed to be beautiful. Will report back later.
Later. My last report was from Cupid Bay at Governors Harbor. There was good holding and very comfortable as long as the wind was out of the n-ne. When it clocked around to the SE and built to 15 it got very rolly. Thursday we moved over to the main harbor. It was very comfortable there and we had no problem with holding. We left there early due to the weather, but plan to return as there was a lot more to see and do that we missed. It was windy and overcast on Thursday so after laundry and water replenishment and moving the boat we did not hike over the hill to the former Club Med beach.
It was an easy 15 mile sail to Hatchet Bay, "the safest harbor in the country". There are ten mooring balls here spread over three areas in the harbor. There is a 90' cut through the rocks to get in and there is a short rock jetty on both sides as you pass through the cut. You don't see the cut until you are right on top of it. Last night (Friday) at 5 pm the fast ferry from Nassau came barreling through the pass. It will return on Sunday night. There is a dinghy dock on the SW corner of the harbor with a gazebo and pier for the boaters that leads into the "center" of the settlement. There is not much here. We walked the entire settlement today. There is a place called Twin Brothers that is very nice that has a restaurant, bar, shop and rooms to rent. They also rent a car here (I emphasize one car). We ate lunch at the Front Porch and got a lot of information from the owner - Francis. Today's special was stone crabs that he catches himself. These claws were impressive. They were the size of your fist. The lunch included a pound of claws, which was three claws, FF and a salad. Mary and I shared it and it was plenty for us, including a couple of beers. The claws were cracked, but he showed us how to crack them with a teaspoon. Pretty cool!
This morning we went to church in the settlement. I know the sign said Catholic Church and the service was a Mass, but it was more like a Revival. We shook hands and spoke to everyone there. After church we walked south on the island and explored some new area that included a New Orleans style cemetery right on the beach. Several of the above ground crypts had been destroyed by the water from previous hurricanes. After our walk we stopped at Twin Brothers for one of their "world famous-as seen on CBS" daiquiris. It was a cocktail that you drank with a spoon. It was quite good and very refreshing.
Since we will be here couple of days we plan to rent THE car tomorrow for a day and visit some sites we won't get to by boat.

Signs and Wonders: SPLC maps out conservative Christian 'hate'
Who's bullying whom? What do the Family Research Council, Aryan Nations, and the home of Spokane's Singing Nuns have in common? They're all on the Southern Poverty Law Center's list of "hate groups." Mount Saint Michael, home to a Latin Rite or Tridentine Catholic church, school, and convent north of Spokane, Wash., has been listed since 2006 by the law center as a radical traditional Catholic group and accused of anti-Semitic activities. The designations made the news again last week when the SPLC released the annual update of its "Hate Map" of groups across the country. The map now includes interactive, easy-to-use online graphics. The Rev. Casimir Puskorius, pastor of Mount Saint Michael, told The Spokesman-Review the listing is "very unfair" and contends "it's a result of a liberal organization taking issue with the teachings of a conservative Christian group." Puskorius added, "We considered suing them, some years ago, but they have more resources than us."
Hypocritical? Former astronaut Mark Kelly has been campaigning for restrictions on military-style weapons. Kelly is the husband of former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was shot in January 2011 in Tucson, Ariz., at a supermarket rally she had organized. Six people died, and 13 others injured in the incident. Since then, Kelly and Giffords have championed gun control. So why did he recently buy a rifle and handgun at a shop in Arizona? He says to highlight the need for gun control. But gun rights supporters are accusing him of hypocrisy, asking why he needed to purchase a gun to prove that point. Kelly and Giffords are trying to ban semiautomatic weapons like the AR-15 rifle Kelly bought. They want to raise $20 million for the 2014 congressional elections, an amount they say matches the National Rifle Association's spending in last November's election. Doug MacKinlay, the owner of Diamondback Police Supply where Kelly bought the gun, told Reuters he would not have sold Kelly the rifle if he knew the $1,000 purchase was going to be used to make a political statement: "We do not support his stance that civilians should not be able to purchase assault-style weapons. Not by a long shot."
Happy birthday, Justice Scalia. Curt Levey of the Committee for Justice writes this week at FoxNews.com that Justice Antonin Scalia's 77th birthday this week is "a reminder of the all too likely prospect that President Obama will pick a successor for Scalia or his colleague Anthony Kennedy, who turns 77 in July." Levey explains that "conservatives can hope that Scalia and his four center-right colleagues will all outlast President Obama, but a probabilistic analysis suggests otherwise. Obama will likely replace at least one of the five, with the resulting liberal majority wrenching the court to the left on issues ranging from gay marriage and religious liberty to immigration, racial preferences, voter ID laws, and the death penalty."
More Title IX casualties. Maryland's Towson University announced that as of Friday it would be cutting its baseball program, and the players on the current, so-far-still-playing baseball team covered up the name "Towson" on their uniforms with black duct tape. Yahoo Sports quotes catcher Zach Fisher: "We don't support Towson, so we don't want to wear something that says 'Towson.'" The men's soccer team is getting cut, too, freeing up about 65 roster spots for women's sports, in order to comply with Title IX. Athletic director Mike Waddell said the moves will save the school about $800,000. He's the one who blamed Title IX for the cuts.

California Employment Law
Have California Employment Law Questions? Ask a Lawyer.
Hello, my name is XXXXX XXXXX it will be my pleasure to assist you today. My goal is to provide you with excellent service. Are you online with me today?
Welcome to the chat
First let me say that I am terribly sorry to hear that your daughter is in this situation. It is a shame when an employer does something without legitimacy, especially when that thins is quit frankly wrong. However, that does not necessarily mean that the decision is unlawful. Absent some kind of confidentiality agreement the employer is allowed to say anything that is truthful.
That being said, many employers get in trouble because they make a statement that cannot be proved as true. This is why you often times hear about what an employer is not allowed to say (by policy). This however, is separate from how the law treats the situation.
If the employer is saying ANYTHING that is a 1) False, 2) Statement of Fact, your daughter can bring a lawsuit against them.
Second, if the employer is going out of their way to keep your daughter from being employed, she may have a claim for interference with economic advantage.
That being said, your daughter absolutely has a claim for a hostile work environment and possibly even constructive termination based on her relationship with her boss at work.
I believe she is but do not know how to prove it. besides the "Indescretion" She was a top employee who moved into other departments. How can we prove they are "black listing her"
You can call up as a prospective employer and see what they say about her, or you can contact employers who have turned her down and ask what has been said about her
Thats what I was thinking. Are they allowed to say anything of the personal situation? I thought they could only say rehire yes or no. Could it be the no stopping them?
Can I ask prospective employers as myself?
There is no law that requires them to say rehire yes or no, this is only a policy most companies use to avoid litigation for the reasons I mentioned above.
But if it is true about her not making the best choice can they say that?
They can legally say anything they want as long as what they say is truthful. But again, if they really are going above and beyond to keep her from being employed that could give rise to an interference with economic advantage claim. You can absolutely ask prospective employers as yourself.
But it is unlikely that they will talk to you
Her boss was 13 years older and his Superior turned a blind eye until someone said favoritism was being made.
Thank you for your help. Ill try the route of being prospective employer and go from there.
Not a problem. Have I fully answered your question today?
Yes thank you.
Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or concerns regarding the above and I will be more than happy to assist you further. If you do not require any further assistance, please do not forget to provide my service with a positive rating, as this is the only way I will receive credit for assisting you.
Have a wonderful rest of your day.
Thank you and you too.

I am 18 weeks today...and I haven't gained any weight. But, I am a plus size woman. I know that gaining weight at my size will make my babies birth much harder. (I have read many studies that show plus size women can have complications but it's not as common as many people would think.) I am not dieting or anything...and my Doctor says that as long as my baby is healthy and doing well, the extra weight doesn't matter to my body.posted 06/25/2010 by Violetembers
I'm 18 weeks and have lost 11 lbs since conception, mostly due to nausea. If your still having morning sickness and think that may be contributing talk to your doctor about nausea meds. they put me on some this week and I now have an appetite. but i wouldnt worry about the small gain. If you are eating its still the beginning, lots of time left to pop... i was suprised i was losing i moved up two pant size and one bra. dont worry its normal i think to be low on the weight gain right now.posted 06/15/2010 by luckylady070283

I'm 18 weeks, and I've actually lost 21 pounds. I was really sick the first couple of months, and could barely hold anything down. The baby's heartbeat is strong though, so my doctor just told me to make sure I'm eating healthy and eating a lot.posted 12/30/2007 by tiffanychristine03
I'm almost 19 weeks pregnant and have actually lost 4lbs since week 10 due to a lot of vomiting up to week 13 and a general loss of appetite and food aversions. I dont know if its normal to have not gained a lot of weight but think of it as a blessing as my friend is the same distance through her pregnancy and has already gained 25lbs!!!posted 12/10/2007 by Daniela Ralph
I am 18 weeks also, and my doctor told me that she isn't too worried if i don't gain any weight yet. Once i hit 20 weeks, then i need to start packing on the pounds. I wouldn't be too worried. I've only gained 3lbs. (:posted 02/14/2010 by jesisgreat
Im 18 weeks and people are thinking im 5 or 6 months. Im very slender. I started out weighing about 112 im now like 120 ( AT LAST 14 WEEKS VISIT) So...im still skinny..just a big belly. :-)\ i was even hospitalized for four days for bad nausea as well and had only tea and bread for like 2 days..lolposted 01/05/2010 by chocolateicecream
I dont think anyone can really say what normal is, because every woman is different, especially through out their pregnany. Before I got pregnant I was somewhere between 125-130, I've lost alot of weight since then. Right now Im about 110, and im 18 weeks myself. All of my jeans are too big now, but the doctor said my baby is fine, so Im not worried about it, and as long as you go see you doctor regularly, u shouldnt be either.posted 12/19/2007 by TeLLiey

50 Cent has unveiled another message aimed at Floyd Mayweather on Instagram, this time one that mentions a potential fight while mocking the boxer's ability to write.
The post is an image of a poorly written love letter. The letter is addressed to Tiny, T.I.'s wife, and features shaky handwriting and misspelled words. It says it was written by Floyd "Mony" [sic] Mayweather."
The caption for the image is as follows:
"@floydmayweather I love you like a brother. Call fanny, and tawana your sister's love your crazy ass.check on Devon you are forgetting the people who matter boy. If you want to fight I'll be in Vegas next week.#SMSaudio."
50 Cent recently addressed Floyd Mayweather by saying, "If you mad at me, call me or come see me." The rapper also mocked Mayweather by saying Nelly took his "lady," and by saying the boxer doesn't know how to read well.

A northeast Phoenix resident's love for children and reading has culminated in a new business.
Cathy Green, a former preschool teacher, opened Tikes and Tales with her husband, John, at the southeastern corner of Greenway Road and Tatum Boulevard after realizing the area lacked a used-books store for kids.
She spent the year prior to opening buying used books at local garage sales. The couple had soon gathered 10,000 used children's books.
"I've always been a big reader, so my husband and I like to go to garage sales, and we thought we'd pick up some books and one thing led to another and we thought why don't we open a bookstore," Cathy Green said.
Information: www.tikesandtales.com.
Several times during the week, children gather at Tikes and Tales for story time. The free event often features books by local authors.
"It's close to our home," Green said. "And it's good demographics - middle-income to upper-middle-income people. They realize that reading is important."
While online retailers are popular, Green said they don't offer the convenience offered at her modestly priced store.
"You have at least $3 to $4 in shipping (with online purchases) and our price structure is books are half the publisher's price," she said. "There's a lot of books that are $1.99. You can't get that at the same price at Amazon."
Promoting used books is bigger than just saving money, although Green believes that is a primary attraction for her customers.
"I prefer to buy used books. You're recycling and saving the environment," she said. "Most people I know do not read a book more than once, even children. They read once and they are ready to move on."
Northeast Phoenix resident Jessica Chiavaroli discovered Tikes and Tales when walking by the store. She was attracted to the store being a place where her three daughters could learn and play.
"It gives a nice atmosphere for our children to come to and feel comfortable in," she said. "They can come and be noisy because it's very relaxed."
Cathy Green reads to kids at Tikes and Tales, a new children's bookstore in northeast Phoenix specializing in used books.

Riding a bike on a day like today seems like cheating.

Riding a bike on a day like today seems like cheating.
I guess we earned it....
Yup, great riding up in Whatcom county today too. My only complaint is all the gravel and sand that they threw on the roads during the big snowstorm. It all seems to end up in the shoulder and bike lanes. Oh well, can't complain too much I guess...
had to bundle up a bit more than normal, but other than that it was great. Finally got to test out my single speed and am loving it. great break from all the rain and super cold weather
Never cleared out in the South Sound and it did clear today but not till about 3:00. Wife and I did get to walk in the sun this afternoon. It was yummy fer sure

Foggy, overcast, 27° in Kittitas County--forecast pretty much the same for the rest of the week. Going to Tacoma Wednesday and plan on taking my bike so I can get in a few miles.
here in Portland really windy about 25 with gusts
I went out yesterday from about 3:30pm to 5pm. It was still cold, but warmer than it was earlier. What was funny is the fog rolled in on the way back. Then I had some dam dogs chase me, 2 different times. One dog chased me for almost a mile. Anyway, a great ride and I finally got to ride my new 10 speed components. I thought that it was great to have extra trim in the front so if I wanted to ride in big and almost big, it could trimmed so it would not hit the front derailleur. 10 speed is just great. My 8 speed did not do that. I changed the bearings in my cranks to ceramic and they are smooth.

This morning's commute was 33 in Renton, 32 on the Honda dealer halfway up the Factoria hill, and 32 according to ForecaseFox here at work (Redmond). No wind to speak of (thanks for small favors), but deep breathing that icy air is uh...invigorating. Yeah, that's it. Invigorating.
Frost, ice, and thick fog on the plateau this morning.... makes me a slow boy on the bike. Am actually glad to have the leftover sand and grit on all the shoulders of the roads, it gives a little more traction. Add the bits of broken glass and broken tire chains to the mix, and am very glad to have the Armadillos on.
Yep, beautiful today. I was on the road about 6:45 am and saw that all the routes I take were swept, even a sidewalk connector! Well, except for Marginal Way. It was pea-soup fog though until I hit near the Duwamish. I couldn't see 1/2 block ahead of me for some time and the condensation on my glasses made it a little iffy. With no wind though, it was a nice fast ride! I see it's still a little foggy so the ride home should be just as good.
OK I'm ready to be done with this.... there are few conditions worse to ride in than a thick, subfreezing fog! Roads are treacherous, visibility is bad, and between the ice and and my constantly fogging up glasses, every mile takes twice as long as usual. Folks in eastern Washington have had it worse, hope you all are riding safely over there. I'll take near zero temperatures (with a clear sky) over this! Wish I could get out for a ride during the day when the sun's out.
Edit: Looks like a change ahead, maybe the snow will be coming back over the weekend.

What is this thing you call sun? I have no memeory of this because here in the Valley of the FOG there is nothing but grey crud in the air. Yeah SNOW this weekend that's just swell. Looks like I'm gong to have to double up on the anti depressants.

rode from Kirkland to the UW today; you guys are right about the rocks on the side of the road
Easthill I don't even think I can ride that far. I'm still having problems with the Achilles. I'm standing on concrete all day and after that they start to ache by the time I get home. I'm doing stretches and trying to strengthen them muscles around my ankles and in the legs but I don't know what to think. Its been a really hard winter on my legs and feet so far.

It really stinks for sure. I was grilling some steaks in the garage this evening ( I had the door open) and I was looking at all our bikes thinking I wish I could get out and take a nice long ride. Hopefully I will be ok in the next month or so I want to start out riding to work just to get in bike shape a little for the nice weather if it ever comes.

(Sigh) We almost had some nice weather over here but I had to work that day and my leg is still numb anyway. (pass the anti depressants)
The good news is that a friend of mine from Genie said he's gonna do the TdC this year. It will be nice to have a friend or two in the pack! (Weather permitting of course)

Prints out an ascii chart using builtin bash! Then formats using cat -t and column.
The best part is:
echo -e "${p: -3} \\0$(( $i/64*100 + $i%64/8*10 + $i%8 ))";
From: http://www.askapache.com/linux/ascii-codes-and-reference.html
hexdump could be used for conversion too!
Optionally, pipe the output into http://sed.sourceforge.net/grabbag/scripts/html2iso.sed
Or: wget -qO - http://www.asciiartfarts.com/random.cgi | sed -n '//,//p' | sed -n '/
strips html from stdin
It shows the complete ascii table, and it works in BSD too, not only in Linux.
This is especially useful to get crazy stuff like space characters copied to your pasteboard correctly.
Source: https://github.com/mathiasbynens/dotfiles/blob/master/.functions
You can use "decode()" in a similar manner:
python -c 'print "68656c6c6f".decode("hex")'
Even adds a newline.
This command will tell you your fortune, with a nice Ascii Art animal, and it is colorized
You need cowsay, toilet and fortune installed.
On Ubuntu this is:
sudo apt-get install cowsay toilet fortune
aptitude install cowsay toilet fortune
Change YOUR TEXT HERE to the text you want.
On figlet -f banner, you can change it to any figlet font you have installed.
One variant for Star Wars fans could be this:
while [ 1 ]; do clear; echo 'Star Wars' | figlet -f starwars -t | while IFS="\n" read l; do echo "$l"; sleep 0.01; done; done
NOTICE: You need to install figlet.
On Ubuntu, this command is:
sudo apt-get install figlet
On Debian, this command is:
aptitude install figlet
If you're going to use od, here's how to suppress the labels at the beginning. Also, it doesn't output the \x, hence the sed command at the end. Remove it for space separated hex values instead
Just use "od" and it can also dump in decimal or octal.
(use -t x1 and not just -x or it confuses the byte order)
There is a load of other formatting options, I'm not sure if you can turn off the address at the start of the line.
Here's a version that uses perl. If you'd like a trailing newline:
perl -pe 's/(.)/sprintf("\\x%x", ord($1))/eg; END {print "\n"}'
Same as another one I saw, just with a cleaner sed command
Edit: updated the sed command to use the [[:xdigit:]] character class - more portable between locales
Note that it will have a newline inserted after every 32 characters of input, due to the output of xxd
convert your text to ascii art
Converts the ascii text to hex from bash.
Check the sample output.
Can be installed in the root crontab if you want it to update your motd.
If not on ubuntu you need to change /usr/share/cowsay/cows/* to the location of your cow files.
just a bit simpler
Displays a scrolling banner which loops until you hit Ctrl-C to terminate it.
Make sure you finish your banner message with a space so it will loop nicely.
Removes ANSI color and end of line codes to the [{attr1};...;{attrn}m format.

Placer Artists League announces winners in its 2012 Open Juried Show
The Placer Artists League recently announced the winners of its 2012 Open Juried Art Show fine arts competition and exhibition.
The annual competition drew artists from all over Placer County, including Granite Bay and Roseville. The competition was judged by Anita Wolff, a well-known artist throughout the United States for her paintings and classes. Wolff's work is in many collections throughout the world.
The exhibit is showcased at the historic Bernhard Winery building, 291 Auburn-Folsom Road in Auburn, where PAL members once displayed their artwork six days a week in the building then known as Gallery One from 1959 to 1999.
Show admission is free and is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. through July 6.
"We were pleased to come home to our former gallery location for the 2012 PAL Open Juried Show," said Diane Friedberg, PAL chairperson. "The Placer County Museums Division graciously allowed us to use the Bernhard Winery building, and we're grateful to be going full-circle in this amazing historical building."
Awards were provided to the best artwork in each category and Wolff then chose the Best of Show. Viewers will vote for the Viewer's Choice Award, which will be announced at the Artists' Reception and Awards Ceremony, set to be held Saturday, June 30 from 1 to 3 p.m.
The Best in Show award was presented to Susan Giannini of Granite Bay for her mixed media painting "Bull Elephant." A total of 60 artists entered the competition, with 101 pieces selected to hang in the show.

Up Front: June 2009
We once had an editor who believed the magazine put too much emphasis on banking, an accusation to which I, as the guy guiding BNCs coverage the last 22 years, can only plead guilty. I wonder what hed say about this months issue. But in our my defense, I question how a magazine whose mission is to chronicle business in this state could possibly give the topic too much ink.
Of all the changes the last three decades have wrought on the Tar Heel economy, none is more dramatic than the growth of the Queen City into the nations second-largest financial center, home of not only the biggest U.S. bank but headquarters of two of its four largest ones until Wells Fargo swallowed Wachovia last year. If that assessment seems Charlotte-centric to some, consider that were in the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, one being felt by everyone everywhere and whose roots can be traced to the credit crisis that ensnared the banks and other financial institutions.
Few could have imagined the emergence of Charlotte as a banking center, but one who did is Hugh McColl, under whose leadership what is now Bank of America was forged. But if the events of the past quarter-century can be described as eyebrow-raising, those of the last few months qualify as jaw-dropping. Columnist Dan Gearino offers thoughts on what they mean for Charlottes banking community as well as its civic pride.
Of course, Tar Heel banking covers a lot more territory than Charlotte, and Senior Editor Frank Maley surveys the larger landscape with two more stories, including a look at the Financial 100, our annual ranking of the largest banks, thrifts and credit unions based in the state. His other piece explores the plight of or, as the case might be, the opportunities that the credit crisis affords community banks, which despite their number too often are lost in the shadows when the media spotlight their bigger brethren.
Yes, we put a lot of emphasis on this industry. And you can bank on our continuing to do so.

- Netbackup Administrative Console à Bare Metal Restore Management à Hosts à Bare Metal Restore Clients à Server Name à Current. Right Click and Prepare to Restore.
- Choose the appropriate options on this dialog to perform any specific operations during restore.Click OK. This operation will take a while as it performs basic validations on the client and verifies that all the necessary tasks are done before the actual restore starts.
- Once PTR or Prepare To Restore is done, entry is seen under the Restore Task view of BMR Admin Console.
- If you want to boot with Network follow step 5 if not follow step 6.
- Configure Pre-boot Execution Environment (PXE) Server using the Boot Server Assistant Wizard.
You can change any of the following items:
This BMR Boot Server is also the DHCP Server
This setting determines which network port the PXE server needs to listen to for boot requests. If the boot server is also the DHCP server, the PXE server cannot listen on the DHCP port (67). Instead, it must use the alternate service port (4011).
Enable Logging
This setting turns on and off the logging for the PXE services and TFTP services. If logging is enabled, BMR automatically creates a bmrpxed directory in the standard NetBackup logs directory.
Interface to listen for Boot Request on
Select the local server IP address on which to listen for boot requests. All of the IP address for the boot server is listed in this combo box.
Path to the TFTP directory
Enter the path to the TFTP directory. By default, this directory is under the NetBackup install directory. Since this directory needs enough space to hold up to 250MB for each Fast Boot SRT, it may be necessary to relocate it to another disk.
PXE is supported on all Intel boxes.
Ensure that the NIC or Network Adapter on the Client are marked PXE Enabled. If not, enter BIOS Setup mode and turn it ON.
If there are multiple NIC cards configured on the Client, you can choose any one of them to be PXE Enabled.
PXE boots the client PC from the network by transferring a "boot image file" from a server. This file can be the operating system or the SRT for the client PC that performs client management tasks. Since PXE is not operating system specific, the image file can load any OS. (Windows/ Linux)
- Creating the bootable CD to boot the Server with CD/DVD ROM.
- Attempt Restore Operation:
Restart the Client and choose the right option on the boot sequence. The option key can change depending on the machine and BIOS version.
Typically it is F12 Key that allows one to choose the boot option. For Network Boot, choose the NIC/ PXE option and CD for Virtual CD ROM or physical media.
After it get finish reboot the server. Restoration is completed.

Catalogers Say USPS Cutbacks May Be Good For Mailing Industry
Some larger catalog mailers have applauded the U.S. Postal Service's recent proposals to lay off as many as 35,000 employees and shutter more than 220 facilities around the country.
Not only did they say the measures would not affect their mailing plans but they expressed hope that by making these moves, the USPS might eliminate excess capacity, keep postage rates stable, and ensure the Postal Service's continued viability.
Earlier this month, the USPS said it planned to close an unspecified number of area mail processing facilities around the country as part of its efforts to cut $15 billion in operating costs by 2015.
"I commend the USPS for taking the dramatic and necessary steps, however painful, to align its cost structure with today's economic realities," says Terri Alpert, CEO of Stony Creek Brands, parent company of the Artisan Table and Uno Alla Volta catalogs. "I hope that this brave action results in a sustainable system that will be serving the needs of the American public for decades to come."
Like many other catalogers, Stony Creek has cut back on mailings in recent years, reducing the total circulation of its two books from a high of 13 million annually to 9 million.
"I think the USPS is doing the right thing by trying to eliminate excess capacity and only use what it needs," says Larry Davis, vice president of marketing for jewelry cataloger Ross-Simons.
Despite USPS efforts to pull in more money from extraordinary or "exigent" rate increases, Davis does not fear that the USPS is going to get any more than those tied to the rate of inflation as mandated by the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006.
As with Stony Creek, Ross Simons has reduced its catalog circulation to about 20 million catalogs per year, about half of what it was four years ago. The company's sales are equally divided between catalogs and online sales.
Will these cutbacks affect service?
"The USPS has been overstaffed for a long time so this will not affect anything," says Phyllis Mosca, president of Ulla Popken, a large size women's apparel catalog.
The company mails out fewer than 10 million catalogs per year and is in the mail every month. Nevertheless, mail and online "are about equal now" in terms of pulling in customers. Still, Mosca says, "catalogs still bring in good response."
The USPS reported a net loss of $3.3 billion for the quarter ended Dec.31.
