Tons of teens, adults and everyone in between flooded the Pabst Theater on Wednesday, Oct. 30 to see Walk The Moon and openers Smallpools and The Mowgli's.
First up was Smallpools. Comprised of four musicians, they had a very large sound and warmed up the crowd well with their upbeat indie pop songs driven by an electric keyboard. The band played every track off of their four song self-titled EP along with two new songs. To close off their set, they played New Radicals' iconic "You Get What You Give," which they claimed was an inspiration to them. Give them a couple months and a little more variety of material and they'll be headlining.
Next up on the bill was The Mowgli's, who were quite the change from Smallpools. We go from a four-member to an eight-member band (talk about a crowded stage). The band came out dressed in zombie garb, preparing for the Halloween festivities the next day. They opened with "Waiting for the Dawn" and broke out in dance–to say they had a party on stage would be an understatement. One could get exhausted watching all the excitement. Of course, it definitely would not be a Mowgli's set without their popular song, "San Francisco" to close.
After the two energetic openers, I didn't know if I had it in me to stay for Walk The Moon. Somehow, I scrounged together enough energy to dance and clap along to every single song in their set. They opened up with a recording of the beginning of Lion King's "Circle of Life" while the backdrop depicted the image on their current album cover, a treehouse, reflected in two metal tree houses on stage. Many laughs and claps could be heard as the band entered the stage to their respective spots opening with "Next in Line." Each band member had the iconic war paint on their faces. Their set was a mix of old songs and news songs from their album that's currently in the works. During the chorus of "Shiver Shiver," fake snow machines shot snow into the crowd, adding to an already perfect set. Many in the audience sang along, just how they were meant to be. The set slowed down with the band's ballad "Iscariot" and later rounded off the night with "Anna Sun" and their encore, "Jenny."
Like the opener Smallpools, Walk the Moon uses the typical guitars, but adds in synthesizer and piano. On occasion, a bass drum was used by the lead singer in different songs to add to the driving beat. Their style may be considered indie rock, but they consider themselves a rock band that adds creativity into their work, making them more artsy and experimental.
All in all, the show was phenomenal. Each band brought something different to the table. Unfortunately, Walk The Moon's lead singer said they will not be back until next year, but here's to hoping that the other two will be back before then.

Can you believe it's only 3 weeks until the kids go back to school? Don't panic! Simply Organized is going to make it simple this year. I'm speaking Sunday July 26th from 2-3pm at the Cumming Library on how you can simplify your back to school this year. Here are a few tips to get you started:
Most schools have the list posted online for each grade. You can also buy "packs" from most schools which include all needed supplies. I recommend you print out your list and shop at home first. You probably have tons of paper, pencils and more left over from last year. Gather everything on the list into one place and check those items off. The rest can be purchased at any retail store and most have great deals right now.
(ex. Crayons, Ziplock bags, glue, scissors, folders, paper, pencils)
Make time to have your children try on the clothes and shoes they wore last year to see what fits. For the first couple of months (at least in the south) they can probably stay in their summer clothes but go ahead and make a list of their fall and winter wardrobe needs now.
(ex. NEED Shirts: short sleeved #4, long sleeved #4, pants #5, shoes #1, socks #5)
You should have a dry erase, paper or electronic shared calendar for your family. Each member should have their own color. Place all activities on the calendar including after school, trips, sleep overs, teacher meetings and weekend plans.
Even if every day is a little different, families thrive on schedules. Have a PLAN B for days with after school activities and a PLAN C for weekends. To combat confusion and set expectations, use the following daily routines:
Wake up time (ex. 6:30am) eat breakfast, get dressed, brush teeth
Out the door time (ex. no later than 7:30 am)
Home work time (after school ex. 3:30-4:30) play time, chores
Dinner time (ex. 6:30 pm) then game or tv, bath, brush teeth, read story
Bed time (ex. 8 pm)
A place for everything and everything in it's place – right? Start these good habits with your family now and it will save you time and stress later.
Every person in your family should have their own hook and or basket near the entry and exit of your home. Even if you do not have a mud room, you can easily create this area around a storage bench, breakfast room, laundry room or garage. This is also a great place to put a family calendar.
Each night before bed: all homework is completed and put into backpacks near the exit. Make lunches (or let your kids do it), snacks and even breakfast the night before and have it in the fridge ready to go. Lay out your children's clothes (or have them do it) the night before. Keep their shoes in their closets with their clothes or in a storage bench or basket near the door. Use a charging station for all phones, laptops, etc. and plus them in before you go to bed. Keep the charging station near your keys. Do the same thing every day and you will not be frantically looking for your keys, phone, shoes and homework every morning before school.
Kids love having a few responsibilities and they love helping mom and dad. Depending on the age and maturity of your child, most experts recommend you start adding 1-2 tasks each year starting when you feel they are ready. Most kids can start with making their bed, brushing their teeth and picking out their clothes. When you think they are ready, add setting the table, clearing the dishes, unloading the dish washer and making their own lunch to their daily or weekly chore chart. This makes them feel proud and helps you out at the same time. The chore list below was found at www.thirtyhandmadedays.com. You can customize it and print it out.
Back to School should be a fun time. It's a fresh start and a new beginning for you and your kids. Try to get the task completed early so you can enjoy it!

Published 4:18 pm, Sunday, June 16, 2013
DANBURY -- Police on Saturday charged a Starrs Plain Road man for sexually molesting two 12-year-old girls.
Jose Fajardo, 42, who was deported from the United States in 2007, was being held on a $500,000 bond pending a court appearance Monday.
He is charged with third-degree sexual assault, fourth-degree sexual assault, three counts of risk of injury to a minor and unlawful restraint. He is also being held on a federal immigration detainer, police said.
Some of the charges stem from an incident that occurred seven years ago when the alleged victim was 12, police said.
The second incident came to light as the result of an investigation that began when the department's Special Victims Unit received a complaint on Friday, police said.

This is an absolutely delicious spread that looks like chopped liver ( and tastes like chopped liver) but is made from walnuts and is entirely vegan. If you are looking for a special appetizer for a party, this is it. It's great with tomatoes or spread on (gluten free) crackers or (gluten free) bread/challah. I serve it mostly to company, and it's always a big hit.
This vegetarian/vegan version is a substitute for the real thing ( chopped liver) that is traditionally served on the Jewish Holidays. This mock recipe is very authentic tasting ( maybe better) . In addition, it's easy to make and probably healthier.
It's Made With Just 3 Ingredients:
It's basically three ingredients: sautéed onions, walnuts, and a can of peas. It's hard to believe how good the trio taste when processed in the food processor. The flavors mingle and make a great spread.
Being a gluten free vegetarian/vegan, I miss some of the traditional foods that I grew up eating at Jewish holidays. Two of my best vegetarian versions of traditional holiday foods are my gluten free matzo balls and this vegan chopped liver recipe.
Author: Judee Algazi of Gluten Free A-Z Blog
Cook Time: 20 minutes to sautee the onions
Prep Time: 5 minutes in the food processor to blend
Total Time: 25 minutes
2 cups cooked baby peas, well drained ( or 1 can of baby peas)
1 cup of walnut halves or pieces
2 very large onions, slice in half moons
3-4 Tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste ( I don't use any salt)
Optional: 2 hard boiled eggs, chopped and blended in the processor with the other ingredients if desired
(It's no longer vegan if you use it)
Spray a dutch oven with olive oil spray and add 3 T olive oil. Add onion slices and saute very slowly until on a low heat until caramelized and reddish to bring out the sweetness of the onion. Set aside.
Set up your food processor with the sharp blade. Add the walnuts and pulse quickly 2-3 times( on./off on/off until coarsely ground ( not entirely smooth.)
Then add drained peas and cooked onions, sea salt and pepper to taste
(If you are going to add the hard boiled egg, do it now)
Pulse on /off on /off until mixture is smooth but not overly processed and mushy.
Its done!
Put into a small domed bowl and let it sit for about 10 minutes in the refrigerator
To serve: Turn the bowl upside down onto a flat serving plate and decorate with tomato wedges and cucumber slices on the side.
Enjoy with gluten free crackers, crudités, or gluten free bread.

Printable View
Can anyone point me to some best practices for java coding?
Pracices following which will make codes more robust.
My recommendation is Suns' coding conventions in Java programming.
Code Conventions for the Java(TM) Programming Language: Contents
Along with that, I would suggest doing things in a consistent manner. Choose an approach for routine things, and always do it the same way. Basically, avoid taking coding short cuts. Consistency allows others to get a feel for your style, and it also helps you to avoid making trivial mistakes that are sometimes hard to find.
Stevie, could you please give an example of what you mean about consistency? I do not really follow.
I think he's talking about a common ways all others following. Same design pattern may be, which most people do.
Here is a good example. You can write an "if" statement two ways:
if (condition) method();
if (condition) {
Both are correct, but the first way only works if you only want to execute one statement after the "if". The second way always works. I *always* put braces after an "if", even when it is not necessary.
This sounds trivial, but my point is that there are many little things like this. If you do these many little things each in a consistent manner, then your coding style will appear consistent to others. Not to mention, when you come back to something you wrote after two years, you will be able to figure out what you did ;-)
Another good habit is to write brief, meaningful comments *while* you code. A good comment should be a short as possible, but no shorter. Explain *why* you are doing something; the code should be clear enough to to say *what* you are doing.
If you are a professional programmer, then other people will work on the code you write. Remember to treat them the way you want to be treated.

Pekka Rinne made everyone forget his play in the preseason Saturday. Instead, the 26-year-old Nashville Predators' goalie stirred memories of his performance during the final months of last season.
In his 2009-10 debut, Rinne made 41 saves and held the Buffalo Sabres scoreless for 56:35. The one goal he allowed to Mike Grier – a rebound chance with 3:25 remaining – was the only one of the night, however, and the crowd of 14,209 that chanted Rinne's name at one point in the third period went home disappointed after a 1-0 defeat.
"Pekks was standing on his head," defenseman Shea Weber said. "I didn't think anyone was going to beat him. Unfortunately, that one went in. But he did all he could and we didn't help him as much as we should."
It was the Predators' first loss of the season and the second time (in three games) they allowed at least 40 shots.
Nashville (2-1-0) was outshot in every period, including 13-6 in the final 20 minutes. Buffalo had 17 shots in the second period, the most allowed by the Predators thus far, and the final count was 42-25 in the Sabres' favor.
Grier had a game-high six, which was at least twice as many as any Nashville player.
"We had a lot of chances, and Rinne played great in there," Grier said. "He's a big wall and he made it tough for us."
Just before the goal, Buffalo (1-1-1) had three shots in a span of 33 seconds and forced a scramble, which led to the Nashville net being knocked loose.
The Sabres won the resultant neutral zone faceoff and went right back on the attack. Grier took one shot, which was blocked by defenseman Ryan Suter, but hit the mark with a backhand swing at the rebound.
"He just whacked the puck, and it was by me before I even knew it," Rinne said. "There was a lot of traffic in front."
Rinne sat in favor of Dan Ellis during the first two games after he was winless (0-2) and allowed 10 of the 16 goals scored against Nashville in the preseason. His goals-against average (3.97) and save percentage (80.0) in those four appearances were unexpected after he recorded the team's final 15 wins of last season.
Against the Sabres, who tied for 10th in goals scored last season, he stopped six shots when the Predators were shorthanded, two during a two-minute four-on-four segment of the second period and 33 with the teams at full strength.
Buffalo's Ryan Miller turned aside all 25 he faced, including a shorthanded breakaway by Marcel Goc fewer than two minutes before Grier scored.
"They were better than us – I'm not making any excuses," coach Barry Trotz said. "… They throw a lot of pucks right to crease area, and if you misplay one or don't get a handle on one … they convert on it. That's what ended up happening.
"For the most part, that was a great goaltending performance by (Rinne). I thought he was really good. I thought he was sharp. He was moving well, I just wish we could have gotten to the overtime. The way he was going he probably was going to win the game for us."
• Forward Joel Ward played for the first time this season and blocked two shots and had one hit in 15:50 of ice time. His 2:36 on the penalty kill was second to Goc among Nashville forwards and both of his blocked shots came with Buffalo on the power play.
Wade Belak was scratched to make room for Ward.
• Coming into the night, Nashville and Buffalo were two of six teams that had not allowed a first-period goal this season. Both remained unscored upon in the opening 20 minutes.
• Goc was perfect (seven-for-seven) on faceoffs through the first two periods and won 12 of 14 for the contest.
• J.P. Dumont (soreness) and Jordin Tootoo (hip flexor) remained sidelined. Dumont has missed the last two games, and Tootoo has missed all three.
Dumont is scheduled to skate on Sunday.

A draft contingency plan, which has been put out to consultation by the department for the environment, food and rural affairs, is inadequate and needs "very substantial revision", the Cumbria foot and mouth disease report says.
It claims that the plan would leave the UK ill-equipped to deal with an outbreak of the disease on the scale of last year.
The report, by members of an independent public inquiry into the disease in the worst-hit county, says they were "disturbed" by the failings of central government when the outbreak was identified in February last year.
"A lack of appropriate contingency planning, and a failure to adhere to some of the provisions in the contingency plan that existed, compromised the FMD disease control campaign from the outset," it said.
The report also urges Defra to revise its new plan, adding: "It is no longer sensible to consider FMD wholly in isolation from other areas of emergency planning. The devastation the disease can bring is now fully apparent and, after September 11, bio-terrorism must be regarded as an additional risk factor."
The UK's front line of biosecurity at the points of entry to the country from overseas has improved but was still not good enough, it says.
"Controls on legal and illegal imports of meat are a key consideration in avoiding any future FMD outbreak. We welcome the actions the government has taken so far to improve import control."
Nearly half of all last year's cases were in Cumbria, with more than a million livestock culled from 3,000 farms.
The delay last year in halting animal movements and in making decisions to cull animals, which were crucial in stopping the spread of the disease, should have been avoided, it says.
A lack of experts with epidemiological training was also pinpointed as a factor in the failure to identify the disease.
A key recommendation of the report is for the Government to establish an independent working party to develop a strategy for defence against a future foot-and-mouth outbreak.
The inquiry team also call for the Government to state "unequivocally" the future of the largest single burial site in the UK at Watchtree near Great Orton, where 500,000 carcasses were disposed.
The future of the site has given cause for unease. "Many local residents are of the view that the facility has blighted their locality ... We understand that there is a proposal to develop the site as a nature reserve, but Defra has not been able to confirm to the community that the site will not be brought into use at some stage in the future," it says.
"In our view the continuing uncertainty over the future of the site is leading to suspicion and distrust, particularly given the circumstances of the site's creation."
The report, which contains 31 recommendations, will be sent to the government and considered by the European parliament.

Maui Food Bank NewsJune, 2014
April 2014 Proclaimed "Helping to Feed Hawaii's Hungry Month"
Recently Hawaii's Governor, Neil Abercrombie, and Lieutenant Governor, Shan S. Tsutsui, proclaimed April 2014 as "Helping to Feed Hawaii's Hungry Month." The proclamation ceremony was intended to draw public attention to the seriousness of the problems that hungry people face every day, even here in our tropical paradise.
"Helping to Feed Hawaii's Hungry Month" recognizes that due to financial constraints, homelessness, disability, unemployment, and/or illness, many families in Hawaii are now forced to choose between paying their rent, filling prescriptions, keeping utilities on, and buying food. Many of these families rely on support from organizations such as the Maui Food Bank.
The Maui Food Bank and its affiliated member agencies distribute more than 2 million pounds of food every year, making it possible to feed 10,000 people each month throughout Maui County.
Maui Food Bank's Executive Director, Richard Yust, was on hand for the ceremony, and the contribution of the Maui Food Bank was recognized by the Lt. Governor, as all kinds of people benefit from the Maui Food Bank, including seniors, low-income families, the homeless, the disabled (including veterans), the working poor, people in recovery from substance or domestic abuse, the unemployed and underemployed. Of those served, fully 40% are children and youth.

All my life, I've been interested in why some people recover from trauma while others remain forever traumatized–stuck inside that one horrible event that forever after defines their life. My father, paralyzed from the waist down from polio in 1954, moved on to greater and better things. A sheetmetal mechanic by day, he applied the electronics courses he'd taken while in rehab to a night job fixing neighbour's TV sets out of our garage. Such was his passion, and his interest in sharing it with others, my brother recently received the Order of Canada for his ground-breaking work in biomedical engineering.
It was while writing my book about Ivan Henry–convicted of ten sexual assaults in 1983; acquitted in 2010, after 27 years in jail–that my interest in the subject deepened. Though Henry is almost certainly innocent of all ten crimes–the likely perpetrator, Donald James McRae, continued, after Henry's incarceration, raping countless other women–the courts in 2010 merely pronounced him "not guilty" as opposed to "innocent."
(In 2005, DNA having conclusively linked McRae to three rapes in the '80s, he pleaded guilty to (only) those and received a five-year sentence. In June 2010, he was released at the age of 58.)
In this piece, I consider the impact of rape on the following three groups of victims:
- The three women inextricably linked through DNA to McRae;
- The "Henry" complainants: (a) non-trial; and (b) trial; and
- Jennifer Thompson (now Thompson-Cannino), the woman whose misidentification of her attacker led to the lengthy incarceration of an innocent man, Robert Cotton.
Two questions that arise are
- what factors bear upon one's ability to tilt towards "post traumatic growth"; to fall up as opposed to down? How is it that some victims are defeated by trauma, whereas others–for instance, Viktor Frankl, a holocaust survivor–are able not just to overcome but, indeed, to defeat adversity; and
- doe the alleged perpetrator's "criminal law" outcome affect the victim's ability to recover from the crime–e.g., does it matter whether (a) the perpetrator's factual guilt is conclusively established (McRae); (b) he is, like Henry, merely acquitted, not declared innocent; or (c) his factual innocence is, like Robert Cotton. conclusively proven?
In his excellent book, "The Happiness Advantage" (2010; Random House), Shawn Achor explores this very subject. Achor says that, on every mental map after crisis or adversity, there are three mental paths:
- One that leads you toward further negative consequences;
- One that keeps circling around where you currently are; and
- The "Third Path"—one that leads us to a place where we are even stronger and more capable than before the fall. Instead of falling down, the victim actually "falls up".
Citing psychologist Richard Tadeschi's empirical study of "post-traumatic growth", Achor notes that the results of that extensive research show that trauma such as military combat, refugee displacement, and physical assault can spur growth in many, many individuals.
Of course, not everyone is able to "fall up" after great suffering. What distinguishes the people who find growth versus those who do not? According to Achor, "the people who can most successfully get themselves up off the mat are those who define themselves not by what has happened to them, but by what they can make out of what happened. These are the people who actually use adversity to find the path forward. They speak not just of 'bouncing back', but 'bouncing forward'."
Is it possible for victims of rapes to move past their anger; even past the mere regaining of their equilibrium? Is it possible for them to emerge stronger, more self-actualized, than before? Secondly, is the criminal law outcome—guilty, not guilty, or innocent—relevant to that question? Where there is a real possibility, or, indeed, certainty, that a victim has misidentified her attacker, what if any role does the State play in helping or hindering her journey along that "third path"?
Beginning with the three McRae victims, in June 2005, Provincial Court Judge W. Kitchen wrote a lengthy sentencing decision after Donald James McRae pled guilty to the only three counts (among dozens of virtually identical sexual assaults, including "Henry's") wherein DNA testing confirmed that perpetrator spermatozoa matched his. The three assaults occurred in June/85, January/87 and March/87 respectively—roughly two decades earlier.
After noting "continuing terror and upset" on the part of each of the three victims, Judge Kitchen said, "Without wanting to dishearten the complainants, it really has fairly well destroyed their lives." How sad, I think, that such should be so.
Turning to the "Henry" victims, is it a coincidence that the only two who agreed to be interviewed testified at Henry's preliminary hearing, but not—because they were unable to identify their attacker—at his trial?
Though they both suffered for months thereafter—installing bars on the windows of their basement suites; afraid of being alone; experiencing prolonged bouts of depression, insomnia, etc.—each of them said that, within a relatively short period of time, she had moved on with her life. One graduated with a law degree the following year; the other participated, not long after the trial, in a "restorative justice" documentary, filmed in Seattle, USA, wherein several victims of rape and a number of (unrelated) "recovering" rapists spoke frankly—often, rawly—about their experiences.
"That exercise helped very much with the healing process." she told me. After which she freely volunteered what a tragedy it was that, if Henry really didn't commit the crimes, he spent twenty-seven years in jail.
Had this woman played an instrumental role in sending an innocent man to jail, would she have been so forgiving? Likely not. Perhaps only because her conscience was clear was she able to say, "No way was I letting some pervert define my life." Indeed, at a meeting wherein a number of victims of the "rip-off rapist" created a composite sketch of the attacker, she said, laughing to break the tension, "All I can remember is his pathetically tiny dink."
At Henry's sentencing hearing in November 1983, a number of trial complainants testified regarding the "severe psychological damage" he had inflicted on them. Sleeping with lights on ever since; eyeglasses, too. Nightmares. Weight loss, weight gain. Failing grades, lost semesters.… Self-blame, thoughts of suicide. Fear, fear, fear.
The following day, the trial judge ruled in part as follows:
Six of the eight complainants testified in these proceedings about how the attacks affected their lives. It is devastating enough to be assaulted, but it must be equally repulsive for them to endure cross-examination, at trial and on this application, by the very person who committed these deplorable acts. They are to be commended for seeing this matter through to the bitter end….
Society must be permanently protected from this man's predatory behaviour. There are no redeeming features to rule otherwise. I therefore sentence him to detention in a penitentiary for an indeterminate period.
In response to letters I wrote to several of the trial complainants, two replied, angrily denouncing me and warning me not to harass or "re-victimize" them or the others. Though I made it clear that I had, as yet, no opinion regarding Henry's guilt or innocence, they insisted that–acquittals notwithstanding–he was guilty as sin: "He got off on a technicality. Everyone knows that."
On May 19, 2011, the B.C. Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General wrote me as follows:
Re: Victim Court Support Programs
Many of the complainants in this matter have advised that they do not want you to contact them or anyone related to them with regard to Ivan Henry or your writing project. This includes any form of contact, by way of example but not limited to mail, phone, email, in person, through another party. In case you are not aware, there is a ban on disclosure of the identity of the complainants.
I trust you will respect the wishes of the complainants and we ask that you make no future attempts to contact them.
Whether some others of the "Henry" complainants were willing to speak to me, I have no way of knowing. What I do know, based on the blasts levelled at me, is that, for at least two of them, the mental pain inflicted on them thirty years earlier is still very visceral and close to the surface.
In June 2000, rape victim Jennifer Thompson—her real attacker having just been arrested, years after another man. Ronald Cotton, was found guilty—wrote in a New York Times op-ed piece:
I studied every single detail on the rapist's face. I looked at his hairline; I looked for scars, for tattoos, for anything that would help me identify him. When and if I survived the attack, I was going to make sure that he was put in prison and he was going to rot…. I knew this was the man. I was completely confident. I was sure….
Eyewitnesses can and do make mistakes….
Ronald Cotton and I are the same age, so I knew what he had missed during those 11 years. My life had gone on. I had gotten married. I had graduated from college. I worked. I was a parent.
Ronald Cotton hadn't gotten to do any of that.
Many years passed before Thompson worked up the courage to go public; to expose her "crime"—that of mistaken identity—to the world. First, she had to confront the horrific ripple effects of what she had done: condemned an innocent man to jail for life. 4000 days of his precious life and counting. Had it not been for the scientific "magic" of DNA, he'd have rotted inside forever.
How did Jennifer come to forgive herself? Two years after the exoneration, she met Ronald Cotton and he forgave her. "I want you to have a good life," he said, "we're both victims of a flawed system."
As Jennifer wrote in that same article,
Mr. Cotton and I have now crossed the boundaries of both the terrible way we came together and our racial difference (he is black and I am white) and have become friends. Although he is now moving on with his own life, I live with constant anguish that my profound mistake cost him so dearly. I cannot begin to imagine what would have happened had my mistaken identification occurred in a capital case.
Today, Jennifer Thompson-Cannino lives in North Carolina with her family. She speaks frequently about the need for judicial reform, and is a member of the North Carolina Actual Innocence Commission, the advisory committee for Active Voices, the Constitution Project, and Mothers for Justice. She writes and speaks regularly about the deficiencies inherent in eye-witness identification.
At the latest Innocence Network Conference in Charlotte, North Carolina, I asked Jennifer whether her message of forgiveness and redemption extends to the guilty as well as the innocent. "Absolutely," she said. Her meeting with Cotton raised an important question in her mind: If he could forgive her, could she forgive Bobby Poole, the actual perpetrator? "Forgiveness is not about excusing the crime, it's about power and letting go":
I realized Bobby Poole still had a hold on me after all these years, and that the anger that lived in me had completely changed the way I looked at the world, at what was possible.
Shortly after meeting Cotton, she wrote to Poole, requesting, in the interests of restorative justice, a meeting. Poole died of cancer shortly thereafter, never having replied.
Closing Thoughts
What allows some victims to move on, and others to remain stuck in the past—in the grips of the horrible trauma they experienced? Obviously, as Shawn Achor says, positivity comes more naturally to some people than others. So many factors come to bear: family history and personal experiences; personality; social network; physiological make-up; etc.
However, Achor says that "happiness is not just a mood—it's a work ethic":
While we each have a happiness baseline that we fluctuate around on a daily basis, with concerted effort, we can raise that baseline permanently so that, even when we are going up and down, we are doing so at a higher level.
How sad that any of the trial complainants in the Ivan Henry case remain consumed, three decades later, by anger. What concerns me is whether the State–instead of focusing on paying Henry the compensation he so justly deserves–is enabling/encouraging that very mindset. By propagating the view that Henry is de facto guilty; by using that stance as a shield against his civil claim, the State is fostering a climate totally at odds with the victims' pursuit of that Third Path.
On a related note, the Conservative government is supporting Bill C-479, a private member's bill aimed, among other things, at giving victims better access to parole board hearings and requiring parole boards to make a greater effort to allow victims and their families to present statements during hearings or provide written or recorded submissions: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa.
Fair enough that the victim has input at the time of sentencing, but the Conservatives should not be taking steps to enhance the victim's role post-conviction.
The only two issues relevant to the early release of offenders—the rehabilitation (or otherwise) of the offender, and public safety—reflect, precisely, the two pillars of Corrections Services of Canada's mandate. In other words, once an offender enters the Corrections system, his/her release plan are to be governed solely by those two considerations.
Victim Services in effect accused me of "re-victimizing" the Henry complainants. Surely, by moving to expand the role of victims at parole hearings even further than it already is, Bill C-479, if passed into law, would do precisely that.

Can I use PayPal to purchase DVD's?
Yes you can for our online selection.
Are the DVD's also sold at a brick and mortar store?
Yes, you can find them at the National Art Gallery of the Bahamas in Nassau, Bahamas
Do you share what materials are required in the purse and painting DVD's?
How long will it take me to learn how to paint?
That is definitely a FAQ! It all depends on you. Students in our live classes produce remarkable designs within the first hour of the class without having any prior painting experience. Persons signing up online find themselves glued to the videos and produce top notch designs within hours of watching the techniques.
I'm new to purse making, how realistic is it for me to be able to learn from a DVD?
It's probably the best option for you because your tutoring is now one-on-one. We've had students in the live and online classes who prefer the convenience of the DVD's as they are able to play and replay a segment at their convenience at a fraction of the cost it would be to attend a live class.
I'm a non-painter but I like what I see. Do I need prior training to paint with texture?
Absolutely not. 90% of our student have never painted nor done any form of art before and they are now producing fabulous work. You definitely do not need prior training to learn this method of painting.
How long will it take me to really be good at painting?
That all depends on you. The steps are easy- you can probably master the background designs almost immediately. Take your time and enjoy the process.
Is this painting technique just for fabrics or can it be applied to other surfaces?
The techniques are mainly with dimensional paints. These paints can be used on fabrics, paper, cardboard, shoes, wood, floral & craft items. Check the manufacturer to see what their recommendations are for their specific product.
Do you sell DVD's of your tutorials?
We sure do; click here to see our selection.
I'm really interested in purchasing a Teri Monique handbag but I don't live in Nassau. How can I get one?
Drop us a line and let us know what you are interested in, as well as your ship to address. We will send you a PayPal invoice inclusive of shipping.
I don't have a credit card what is the best way to pay for a handbag if I want it sent to me?
We accepted MoneyGram payments.
My sewing skills are very basic, can I learn to sew handbags like Teri Monique?
Absolutely! All you need is the basic skills, the proper equipment and the willingness to learn and of course our DVD.
I make purses but I'd like to improve my techniques what do you suggest?
We have several DVD's to choose from. You may just need the pattern making DVD to take your product up a notch. But if you are not familiar with the actual specialty materials and construction methods used we highly recommend you getting the How to Make a Structured Handbag DVD.
I'm a bag maker and I've been trying to find some of the unique materials that you use in your handbags, do you have a list of suppliers available?
We do have 2 lists available. One for Purse Making Suppliers, the other is for Texture Painting Suppliers.

If you thought the news that Kevin Clash, the puppeteer behind Elmo, may have been sexing a teenage boy would be the most WTF?! story of the day, well, there's competition.
Antivirus pioneer John McAfee is on the run from murder charges, Belize police say. According to Marco Vidal, head of the national police force's Gang Suppression Unit, McAfee is a prime suspect in the murder of American expatriate Gregory Faull, who was gunned down Saturday night at his home in San Pedro Town on the island of Ambergris Caye.
Details remain sketchy so far, but residents say that Faull was a well-liked builder who hailed originally from California. The two men had been at odds for some time. Last Wednesday, Faull filed a formal complaint against McAfee with the mayor's office, asserting that McAfee had fired off guns and exhibited "roguish behavior." Their final disagreement apparently involved dogs.
Last week Gizmodo ran a story detailing how McAfee has been apparently slowly descending into madness, moving to Belize where his paranoia has led him to stockpile a huge cache of guns and other weapons. The details of a recent police raid on McAfee's compound sound like something out of a Grisham novel.
As dawn broke over the interior of Belize on April 30, an elite team of 42 police and soldiers, including members of the country's SWAT team and Special Forces, converged on a compound on the banks of a jungle river. Within, all was quiet. The police called out through a bullhorn that they were there looking for illegal firearms and narcotics, then stormed in, breaking open doors with sledgehammers, handcuffing four security guards, and shooting a guard dog dead. The compound's owner, a 67-year-old white American man, emerged bleary-eyed from his bedroom with a 17-year-old Belizean girl. The police cuffed him and took him away, along with his guards.
Inside, the cops found $20,000 in cash, a lab stocked with chemistry equipment, and a small armory's worth of firearms: seven pump-action shotguns, one single-action shotgun, two 9-mm. pistols, 270 shotgun cartridges, 30 9-mm. pistol rounds, and twenty .38 rounds. Vexingly for the police, all of this was actually legal. The guns were licensed and the lab appeared not to be manufacturing drugs but an herbal antibacterial compound.
Remind me not to be so "eccentric" when I become a billionaire, okay guys!

XP, Vista or Windows 7: Which is the most secure desktop operating system?
Your favorite desktop operating system may not necessarily be the safest. See how XP, Vista and Windows 7 stack up in terms of security.
This Article Covers
Microsoft Windows 7 operating system
Everyone has a favorite desktop operating system -- the one they think is best. But which OS -- Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 -- is the most secure?
72-Page PDF: Windows 10 Frequently Asked Questions
In this comprehensive guide, our experts answer the most frequently asked Windows 10 questions ranging from the OS itself, to migration, to user-adoption, and everything in between.

Windows XP
This decade-old operating system has stood the test of time. But while Windows XP may be Microsoft's most popular OS, when it comes to security, it is sorely lacking.
For example, I recently worked with two Windows XP laptops that were infested with more than a dozen instances of malware -- even though both were fully patched and running antivirus software. The malware disabled Windows Defender and even infected a USB flash drive I was using to clean the infestation.
And this story is not unique. In the past 10 years, I have encountered many Windows XP machines that have turned into breeding grounds for malware. As such, I do not recommend Windows XP for people interested in security.
Windows Vista
Since its initial creation, there have been two service packs and dozens of individual security patches for Vista. But despite its many vulnerabilities -- and the fact that it may be the most despised OS ever -- Vista has always been more secure than Windows XP. Features such as address-space randomization, data execution prevention, application isolation and User Access Control (UAC) protect Vista from many (but not all) of the exploits that work so well against Windows XP.
In the years since Vista's release, I have only seen three infected machines. In at least one of those situations, the infection was partially the result of the administrator disabling certain built-in security features.
Windows 7
Built on top of the Vista kernel, Windows 7 isn't all that different from its predecessor.
And when it comes to security, Windows 7 doesn't offer a lot more than Vista: BitLocker to Go, which allows for the encryption of removable media, and AppLocker, which provides greater control for regulating the applications that users access, are the only two new security features.
But Microsoft did make changes to User Access Control (UAC) in Windows 7. UAC was a new feature in Vista that prompted the user for permission any time a change was going to be made to the system. The Vista implementation of UAC drew a lot of criticism for being too intrusive. In Windows 7, Microsoft redesigned UAC to make it less chatty, and it threw in a slide bar that allows an administrator to pick the level of protection.Personally, I believe that dumbing down UAC makes Windows 7 a little bit less secure. I like being prompted for permission before an application can make a change to my system. However, the argument can also be made that the new UAC interface makes Windows more secure -- users see fewer prompts and thus, may not become conditioned to click Yes every time an annoying popup appears.
And the winner is ...
In the end, Windows 7 is the most secure desktop OS. Although it doesn't introduce a lot of new security features, it builds on Vista's success. Furthermore, AppLocker offers a big improvement over software-restriction policies.
Software-restriction policies control the apps that can run in Windows XP and Vista, but they didn't catch on because it's difficult to create a set a user can't easily circumvent. While software-restriction policies still exist in Windows 7, AppLocker, which is designed to take their place, is far more effective.
Regardless of which operating system you choose, security ultimately boils down to the way that an OS is configured, and therefore, it is important to always adhere to security best practices.

Have a Happy Halloween!
Seems kinda sacrilegious, dontcha think? Mesa, Arizona.
Chandler, Arizona home. Went up for sale in October 2010 as a short sale listing.
They didn't update their photos once Halloween was over. The house finally went under contract in April 2011. And since it's a short sale, it took 5 more months to officially sell.
Phoenix home listed in October 2010 and sold in late May 2011 with the Halloween pumpkin still there.
Another Phoenix home with Halloween decorations left up year 'round.
Mesa, Arizona home with Halloween rainbow pumpkins. It went up for sale in October 2011 and finally sold one year later! See? The Halloween decorations were appropriate.

Switching jobs involves plenty of adjustments: new co-workers, new office, new tasks, new commute, new everything. It's been a month since I started at HuffPost Live, and I've mostly gotten used to it (aided by the fact that I got to take pics of Tom Colicchio today. Keeping the "AHHHHH! Tom. effing. Colicchio." thoughts to myself was really difficult.)
But the hardest change has been the schedule. I'd gotten really used to working 7:45-3:45, which gave me plenty of time to come home, work out, cook and eat by my obscenely early dinner time. But since my hours have been pushed back to the more normal 9-5-ish, I often find myself in a post-work post-spin class cooking frenzy, throwing things into a pot and running into the shower while praying that my apartment doesn't burn down because I left the stove unattended.
(I could theoretically Seamless my way out of this problem, but I told myself I wouldn't this year and anyways, some days I'm too famished to even wait for the delivery order. True story: one night I came home so hungry that I didn't even stop to take my coat off before cooking. My roommate has gotten so used to my crazy that she didn't even bat an eye.)
All of this is a long way of saying that I've become extremely interested in quick dinners. Obviously I'm not the only person in America with this problem — the Interwebs are rife with recipes labeled fast and/or easy, and grocery stores are stacked with products to make dinner more convenient.* Anything that requires minimal dishes and cooks itself is a major plus, and if it's borderline healthy, jackpot.
This roasted cauliflower salad fits both of those criteria. It's a riff on my favorite roasted cauliflower, bulked up with olives, feta and pine nuts for a Greek-inspired main-dish salad.It requires just one foil-lined baking sheet and one skillet for dry roasting, and the 30-minute baking time is perfect for taking off your coat/showering/unwinding. You could add whole-wheat penne to make it a more well-rounded meal, but as we know, that's not really my thing. Savory and tangy and bright, this packs quite a flavor punch for something that takes no effort at all. Isn't that what a weeknight dinner should be about?
*Whether this is good or not is debatable. I'm all for buying pre-cut vegetables — I made this dish with pre-cut cauliflower florets from Fresh Direct — but far too often, convenience = processed. There are many, many articles out there on the dangers of eating too much processed food: this NYT Mag article has been everywhere and I'm anxiously awaiting my copy of this book. By no means am I a whole foods junkie (I still like my Cheetos!) but I've been reading a lot about food vs. "food" and it's fascinating and also somewhat shocking.
Roasted Cauliflower Salad
– 1 small head cauliflower, chopped into small florets
– 2 cloves garlic, chopped roughly
– 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
– juice from half a lemon
– salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1/2 cup pine nuts
– 1 cup olives, sliced (I used a Greek mix, but anything will do)
– 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1) Preheat the oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with tin foil.
2) Toss the cauliflower with garlic, crushed red pepper, salt, pepper and olive oil. Arrange in a single layer in the baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes, tossing occasionally, until florets are browned. Let cool slightly.
3) In a small dry skillet, toast the pine nuts on medium heat until browned slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
4) Toss the cauliflower with the toasted pine nuts, olives and feta. Serve warm.

Journeyman Stud stallion Awesome of Course continues his impressive run of high-class performers, as his 3-year-old filly Awesome Belle became his fourth stakes winner of 2012 after winning the $75,000 Three Ring S. [VIDEO] on July 21 at Calder. Incredibly, Awesome of Course's fourth black-type winner came despite just 17 starters this year—an unforeseen 24% stakes winners from starters in 2012. Only two Florida stallions have more stakes winners with 5, but have 293 combined starters among them in 2012.
For Awesome Belle, she returned on just two weeks rest after contesting the Azalea S. (G3) at Calder on Summit of Speed day, and the chestnut filly stretched back out around two turns and scored a front-running win in the Three Ring. She earned an 88 Beyer, a career best so far for the multiple stakes winner out of the Bayou Hebert mare Bayou Plans.
Awesome Belle also won the $300,000 My Dear Girl S. while stretching out around two turns as a 2-year-old in last year's final leg of the Florida Stallion Stakes at Calder. Bred and owned by Fred Brei's Jacks or Better Farm Inc., the filly now holds earnings of $308,387. The Florida-bred filly is conditioned by trainer Stanley Gold.
