It is a priority of the Tippecanoe School Corporation to provide a safe learning environment for all of our students and employees. In an effort to continue our due diligence, we require all volunteers having ongoing contact with children and/or supervising students (field trips, etc.) to have cleared an expanded criminal background check. These background checks are conducted through Background Investigation Bureau (BIB).
The criminal background check will search national sex offender databases, court records, and other sources. The cost of the criminal history check is $17.95 (base cost) and is paid for by the volunteer through a link on our website.
Once approved, the volunteer will receive a TSC Volunteer identification card that will be valid for a period of three years. Anyone who volunteers in multiple buildings will only need to complete one background check.
Volunteer background checks may take several business days to process so it is important to plan ahead. We appreciate your understanding of this important safety guideline.

Wedding in film at the Burrow?
I'm pretty sure that Bill and Fleur's wedding appears in the DH film (at least the part after it does), but will the wedding still occur at the Burrow? After all, in the HP6 film it gets burned down at Christmas. Thanks. --Margiechocoholic Owl me! 12:17, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Canonical Name
It says that a canonical name may be supplanted should one be released by any canonical source. While I'm not too sure if Harry Potter Film Wizardry is considered a canonical source, the wedding is referred to as "the wedding of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour" in The Burrow section. Can this be considered, or no? (Just wanted to get input first.) AlastorMoody (talk) 02:47, July 10, 2012 (UTC)

Hi all you Mistral owners out there,
after quite a bit of searching and a very helpful motor cycle shop here in Bristol we have managed to locate sets of pistons and seals for the Grimeca Calipers. My calipers were totally seized but I've now managed to get them apart and rebuild them using the new bits found.
Let me know if you would like the part numbers or if you'd like me to get them for you.
Also my Brake Discs are very badly pitted which is why the pads were wiped out so Kev Armstrong has very kindly produced a cad drawing which I've sent to a company who are making me my new discs, the more I buy the cheaper they get so if anyone would like a set (150mm dia, centre hole 50mm, 4 x 5mm fixing holes set 63mm diagonally) these will be made from 304 stainless steel which should stop the awful rusting we get due to being outside and little brake use.
1 pair �58.16 + vat & delivery
2 pair �33.08 + vat & delivery per pair
4 pair �23.06 + vat & delivery per pair
So you see a good saving if we join forces.
Any takers?

We had previously seen an image of an under-construction ark from Darren Aronofsky's Noah, but now we can see what the completed structure looks like. The photo was taken at Oyster Bay's Planting Fields Arboretum by Dan Wagner for New York Magazine. As you may notice, it's not boat-like, but that makes sense. The ark wasn't built to go anywhere; it was built to withstand the deluge. Additionally, Wagner says "The set decorator brought in tree stumps that weren't there before, to give the effect that the ark was made with local lumber. And there's no way Noah and his sons could have built such an enormous structure themselves. That would have taken 500 years." In all fairness, what else did they have to do with their time?
Hit the jump to check out the image. The film stars Russell Crowe, Emma Watson, Jennifer Connelly, Logan Lerman, Douglas Booth, Ray Winstone, Anthony Hopkins, Kevin Durand, Martin Csokas, and Mark Margolis. Noah opens March 28, 2014.

Global warming will cause the Himalayan glaciers to melt, leading to mass migration and possibly conflicts over valuable resources such as agricultural land and fresh water, the U.N. Environment Programme chief said.
SINGAPORE -- Global warming will cause the Himalayan glaciers to melt, leading to mass migration and possibly conflicts over valuable resources such as agricultural land and fresh water, the U.N. Environment Programme chief said.
Achim Steiner, speaking ahead of the U.N. Security Council's first-ever debate on climate change, said that global warming should be considered a security issue as shortages of water and fertile land in the next 10 to 20 years may lead to conflicts.
The melting of the Himalayan glaciers is expected to displace millions of people from low-lying land as sea levels rise, and will disrupt river flows and irrigation of agricultural land.
"When people start moving, it puts people into competition with one another," Steiner told Reuters in a phone interview from Nairobi. "Where will these people go? Where will they run to where other communities want them?"
The Himalayan glaciers, which feed rivers in India and China, are among the fastest-melting in the world.
Scientists have said the Himalayan glaciers could shrink to 100,000 square km (38,610 square miles) by the 2030s, from 500,000 square km (193,100 square miles) now, if the current pace of global warming continues.
Former World Bank chief economist Nicholas Stern warned last year that the melting of Himalayan glaciers could cause serious flooding in Bangladesh, sparking a mass migration into India.
Steiner, who will be in Singapore on Thursday for the Champions of the Earth awards that are presented each year to seven environmental leaders, cited Africa as an example of how climate change could threaten peace and security.
He said fights over agricultural land have led to some of the conflicts in Sudan, and that climate change could lead to an even bigger flood of illegal immigrants from Africa into Europe.
He also warned that global warming, largely caused by industrialised countries, would hit developing countries hardest, stoking tensions between rich and poor nations.
As a result, the OECD nations need to help developing countries in Asia and elsewhere adopt environmentally friendly technology, and provide subsidies to help countries invest in wind and solar farms.
"The OECD nations should have a vested interest in supporting countries in Asia in the future of energy management," he said.
The U.N. climate panel earlier this month issued its strongest warning yet about the impact of global warming.
The report, based on the findings of 2,500 scientists, said that more than one billion people may face a shortage of fresh water by 2050, and that millions will be threatened by floods as sea levels rise by the 2080s.
While the U.N. meeting on Tuesday is a sign that governments are paying more attention to environmental concerns, an international deal on how to tackle climate change will depend in part on the outcome of world trade talks because they will decide the concessions that countries want to take, Steiner said.
"They define to a great extent the climate of compromise and the willingness to negotiate," he said.

Text: Mark 1:1-5; Isa 52:7-10
Tired, dusty feet honed and callused by desert sand
A voice proclaiming hopeful and yet fearful tidings….Turn, turn your feet and your hearts…get ready for the in-breaking of the reign of God.
More feet–wet feet wading in the Jordan
Voices confessing sins, hearts awaiting the One to baptize in Spirit and in fire.
Fresh feet as yet unmarred by suffering, unblemished feet wading into the Jordan to be baptized by John;
A voice from heaven as the heaven rips: You are my Son, the Beloved; in you I am well-pleased.
Hot, tired feet driven into the wilderness, defiantly standing firm, refusing the temptation to stand down, massaged by the angelic host.
Energized, fleet feet on the move.
The voice of the One whose body those feet anchor speaking into being the in-breaking of God's reign in word and deed, challenging the power of forces of evil allied against that reign.
Feet that before the story comes full circle will lead a rag tag bunch of followers on a circuitous route through Galilee and down to Jerusalem.
Feet—talented, tired, beautiful, battered, bruised feet nailed to a cross.
The sound of the temple curtain ripping; life-less feet carried down from the cross and buried in a tomb.
And then, silence.
Three days later…..fearful, frazzled feet furtively moving through shadows to the tomb, feet bearing women firmly determined to anoint the dead body one more time.
A voice crying out:
The beginning of the story of Jesus Christ crucified and risen, footloose and fancy free, on the move into all the shadowy desert places where feet are shaky, the wildernesses where fears abound, frustrations frazzle, feet fall down—the broken places of our world, our bodies and our hearts as well.
The risen Christ, footloose and fancy free breaking through the very barriers that hold us back and tie us down and tempt us to stand down.
The risen Christ, footloose and fancy-free with life-giving, death-defying hope, love, and courage for God's fearful, frazzled people of every time and every place
The beginning of what? The beginning of the new world-changing day to which you and I are invited—no, more that, the new world-changing day to which you and I are called and challenged and sent to participate.
It's no secret that Mark's Gospel ends as abruptly as it began.
Our last sight—that of the women running as fast as their fearful feet will take them leaves open the ending of the story because the story has not ended—it lives on in and through you and me and all God's people of every time and every place.
Beautiful, talented, sometimes tired feet—your feet and mine. …. feet that have borne us through our joys and sorrows, our anxious days and those we have eagerly anticipated. …feet washed in the waters of baptism, bearing you, God's beloved, talented daughter and son, you in whom God is well-pleased……
…..and yet sometimes, when work pushes us further than we think we can go or uncertainly weighs us down like a menacing cloud hanging over us or when death tries to do its worst, those beloved feet get downright battered and bruised.
But through it all, the voice continues to ring: He is not here….he is risen….go and tell. Jesus the risen Christ, footloose and fancy free on the move for and to and through you and me.
The risen Christ, footloose and fancy free, on the move walking on our sometimes tumultuous roadways with us, massaging our battered feet and bruised spirits, making himself known in bread and wine, fueling our spirits and energizing our tired feet with God's very own life-giving, life-sustaining power for today and tomorrow and every day ahead.
Jesus the risen Christ, footloose and fancy free, on the move refreshing and renewing, energizing and equipping beautiful, talented, tired feet for the mission to which their bearers are called.
The ancient prophetic oracle, spoken originally to give confidence and courage to exiles whose tired, talented beautiful feet were about to get to go back home says it so well : "How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the one who brings good tidings, who publishes peace, who brings good tidings, causing us to hear salvation."
Jesus Christ, crucified and risen footloose and fancy free, entering into the shadowy places of our lives and our world with light and love and peace…..energizing our feet for the ministries to which we are called…………
What more can we add to that except to thank God for God's inexpressible Gift. Amen.

Meet Shoe Designer Diana Kelly
A Florida shoe designer pulls from the past to put a signature spin on chic coastal footwear.
While many little girls grow up treasuring their collections of dolls or stuffed animals, Diana Kelly spent her childhood enamored with something else: antique brooches from her grandmother. "She would often bring me a new one when she came to visit," Kelly says. "Each one had a story behind it, and they felt especially meaningful to me growing up."
So perhaps it was more than happenstance when, years later, those brooches thrust the former beauty queen into her role as owner and lead designer of Diana E. Kelly, her sarasota, Florida–based shoe line. "I was in grad school and struggling to figure out what I wanted to do," says the 27-year-old designer. "Then one morning I woke up, saw a brooch on my vanity, and thought, 'That would look so pretty on a shoe.'"
Drawing on an entrepreneurial spirit and a life-long love of fashion, Kelly returned to her hometown to launch her own line—a collection of brightly hued flats, leather pumps, sandals, and bags, each marked by a sparkling brooch. Kelly's coastal roots provide her with creative fuel: Her designs are adorned with seafaring shapes such as palm trees, sea horses, sand dollars, coral, and starfish. "The beach is therapeutic for me," she says. "I'll often take a pad of paper out to nearby long Boat Key to clear my head and just start sketching. It's where I can focus on designing."
Today, Kelly's beachy footwear and accessories are available online at her Web site, dianaekelly.com. They have caught the attention of shops in vacation destinations from the Bahamas to Nantucket, and have garnered her a partnership with the venerable Key West Sandal Factory, for which she designs flip- flops, jewelry, and beach totes. "Living on the Gulf Coast, I'm attracted to bright colors like corals and pinks, and I'm always thinking of new sea-inspired shapes for brooches," she says.
But if Kelly ever does find herself stuck, she knows exactly where she can turn. "My grandmother lives in Jupiter, Florida, and she's always sending me trends she loves, mailing me articles she sees in magazines, or passing along new brooches to help me come up with ideas," she says. And for her grandmother's influence, Kelly found the ultimate way to say thank you: "All of the shoes that I design are named after important people in my life," she says. "The Ingrid wedge is my tribute to her."

In the crime ridden future of the short film Memorize, everyone is implanted with a chip that records their every memory—a handy device for officers looking to bring criminals to justice. But when one detective goes on a hunt for the person responsible for a grisly murder, he comes up against not only a lot of guns, but also the limits of this all-important technology.
Written and directed by Jimmy Eriksson and Eric Ramberg, Memorize plays heavily on action tropes, but also includes some particularly great moments of world-building. (I can't help but love the pharmabot.) And the holographic "look left, throw right" action sequences are terribly fun. There are also some nice suggestions about what happens when an institution relies on one technology to the exclusion of all others. When the short ends, we have to wonder: do these futuristic cops have a Plan B?

Monte Factor: L.A. Collector
Two weeks ago, I called my friend Monte Factor and invited him to go to the Hammer Museum. Monte and his late wife Betty were early supporters of contemporary art in Los Angeles, and long ago acquired the work of Lynn Foulkes. So I knew he would be a good museum companion for my second visit to Nine Lives in L.A. at the Hammer.
The show starts and ends with Lynn Foulkes, appropriately. Foulkes' space is totally unreal, a kind of compression and illusion that is found in dioramas. Constructed of such unlikely materials—from carved plywood to found objects and even common towels—the paintings and the space totally work. The artist's one-man band is featured on recordings near the exit for the show. One can listen on headphones. Both Monte and I were entranced by the constructions and the music.
A few days later, I helped to arrange for the Getty Research Institute to come and interview Monte at his home. The GRI was responsive and inquisitive, ably represented by Andrew Perchuk and Rani Singh. Monte gave a guided tour of his home and collection. When he flipped a switch at the base of one Ed Keinholz assemblage, two blue lights flashed on at the top edge. Monte explained that the gun, which is pointed at the viewer, is set to go off once in the next 200 years. "Ed wanted the message to be about risk and contingency in our everyday life. There is live ammunition in the gun. He got in a lot of trouble with the German police over this piece," added Monte.
Later in the afternoon, there was a moment that gave me goose bumps. As Andrew Perchuck and Rani Singh came upon a photograph mounted on one wall, there was a moment of recognition of Los Angeles art history. Andrew calmly asked Monte to identify the people in the photograph, from left to right. He repeated what had been written about the picture before: "This photograph was taken in the showroom of the Stardust Hotel in Las Vegas in 1963. From left to right are Teeny Duchamp, Richard Hamilton, Betty Factor, Bill Copley, myself clenching a cigar, Walter Hopps, Betty Asher, and Marcel Duchamp."

Debt is a pest that feeds on your retirement assets, draining the resources meant to sustain you for the rest of your life.
Whether it's the mortgage on the vacation home you rarely visit, or the boat that hasn't seen a drop of water since the last rain, liabilities will keep buzzing around you and prevent you from kicking back and finally relaxing.
A realistic plan to reduce your debt is the fly swatter you need for a worry-free retirement.
Decide what to pay off first
"Debt can rob a retiree of valuable income when they are no longer able to earn money to pay it," says Guy Baker, a financial planner in Irvine, Calif. "It is important to manage debt before retirement while at the same time not negatively impacting the capital that has been reserved for producing retirement income."
But reducing debt before or during retirement isn't a simple matter, and will likely require budgeting and planning. Most advisers recommend first paying off the debt with the highest interest rate, but Baker suggests a different approach: Starting small.
"The best way to attack debt is to pay off the lowest debt amount first while paying minimum payments on the rest," he advises. "Upon completion, take the money used to make those payments and apply it to the next smallest debt. You will be surprised how fast the debt mountain will disappear."
It isn't enough to plan — you have to want it
Gary Alt is a financial adviser in Pleasanton, Calif., and he believes it isn't just the debt reduction plan — it's the desire.
"Nothing reduces debt faster than a burning desire to be financially free," he says. "Once the desire is there, any number of debt reduction methods will work."
For investors with a high net worth, Alt believes it can make sense to retain a mortgage if it has a low interest rate and a favorable housing market allows a return on investment higher than the after-tax cost of the loan. Considering a mortgage as part of your overall investment strategy offers a unique perspective. As Alt says, "All the equity in [a] home won't buy groceries or pay property taxes."
Consider what you own, and what you owe
Taking an objective view of the scope and magnitude of debt can offer a complete understanding of its impact on your retirement. A comprehensive financial plan will provide an overview of where you stand now and how future plans might be affected.
A typical financial plan includes a snapshot of your net worth: What you own and how much you owe, as well as a cash flow statement of current income and expenses. "Then their situation is projected forward with consideration for how their income and expenses will ebb and flow over time," says financial planner Andy Tilp of Sherwood, Ore. "At that point, the burden of the debt will be clear."
Then comes the development of a strategy to reduce expenses.
"An obvious assumption is [that] the acquisition of new debt ceases," Tilp says. "When a person is getting close to retirement, increasing income most often translates to working a few additional years. But often equally important, the client needs to make an honest assessment of where their expenses can be reduced. As a side benefit, reducing their spending while still employed is good practice in preparation for a possibly reduced spending rate in retirement."
An adviser can assist in implementing the plan, to the point of even recommending changes to a client's current spending behavior. Most important, a financial planner will monitor a client's progress to ensure the debt reduction plan is on target and determine if any further adjustments are needed.
Mind over money
While much has been written about the impact of human behavior on the process of investing, emotions drive our spending habits as well. Robert Riedl, a wealth manager in Milwaukee, believes it's a discussion well worth having—on a regular basis.
"It seems most debt options are lifestyle decisions which need to be revisited," Riedl says. "Do I need the multiple vacation properties, cars and boats, or can I simplify my life and sell off some underutilized assets and reduce my debts? Identify your long-term needs versus wants, and determine what can you afford to maintain and will use in the future. Sell the assets that are too expensive to maintain and underutilized to reduce your retirement debt burden—and enjoy the rest."

2011 Toyota Corolla
2011 is a big year for the compact segment with new entries from Chevrolet, Hyundai, Ford, and others competing. Toyota is responding with a refreshed 2011 Corolla, debuting at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
Refining the formula for 2011 starts with a few exterior modifications. The new front grille is easy to spot on the sport model pictured here. The taillights have a new design, as well, and the side view mirrors are larger. As on any properly refreshed model, the wheel covers and alloy wheels have been redesigned. Toyota notes that the Corolla's design was created with input from design studios in Turin, Italy, but we think it's safe to say the Corolla still isn't the segment's style leader.
Inside, Toyota has paid attention to details most consumers might actually notice. That includes a new seat color and pattern, as well as a new color on the door trim. The steering wheel on the S model is new. When the 2011 sedan goes on sale in December, it will offer two new colors.
The 2011 Corolla will come with two years or 25,000 miles of complimentary maintenance and 24-hour roadside assistance, like all new Toyotas. Will this be enough to fight off new compact sedan competitors? Wait just a few months and we'll have the answer.

Jill Stephens scored a run and added an RBI, after she and Abbie Seale were honored with a pregame Senior Day ceremony.
Liberty mounted a five-run rally to tie the game in the bottom of the second, but Coastal Carolina scored three third-inning tallies on the way to a 9-5 victory over the Lady Flames on Saturday. Prior to Saturday's game, the Lady Flames softball team honored its two graduating seniors, in outfielder Jill Stephens and manager Abbie Seale, with a pregame Senior Day ceremony. Coastal Carolina has finished its regular-season schedule at 34-20, with a 19-5 record in Big South games, after sweeping this weekend's series. The Lady Flames are 19-33 overall, and wrapped up conference play with an 8-16 league mark. Sammi Shivock batted 2-for-4 with her team-leading 13th double of the season, while driving in three runs. Kelby Allen batted 2-for-3 and hit her team-high ninth home run of the campaign. Stephens added an RBI and a run scored on her Senior Day. Brooke Donovan went 3-for-3 with a homer and three RBIs, while Morgan Noad hit a grand slam and Kory Hayden added a round tripper for the Chanticleers. Kiana Quolas (21-9) pitched the final 5 1/3 innings in relief of starter Ashley Bagwell, allowing no runs on four hits and fanning three. Bagwell yielded five runs on three hits, walking two and hitting a batter. Annah Jo Brittingham (8-12) drew the loss after giving up four runs (three earned) on four hits, and recorded three strikeouts in six innings of relief pitching. Liberty starting pitcher Chandler Ball yielded five runs (four earned) on three hits in one inning of work. The visitors struck quickly, plating five runs during the first inning. The first two batters reached, and a double steal put runners on second and third with nobody out. Bri Chiusano crossed the plate on a fielding error, making it 1-0. After a walk and a flyout, Noad cleared the bases, boosting Coastal's lead to 5-0. A pair of flyouts ended the top of the first. Brittingham entered the circle in the second frame, and pitched a 1-2-3 inning. The Lady Flames rallied to tie the score during the home half of the second. Allen led off with a homer to straightaway center field. With one out, Kassiy McCoy was hit, and Megan Robinson walked. Katie Zavodny hit a two-out single, filling the bases. Stephens walked, drawing Liberty to within 5-2. Shivock then slammed a three-run double to left off of new pitcher Quolas, leveling the score at 5-5. Coastal Carolina responded to Liberty's scoring barrage by recording three tallies in the next stanza. Cacia Pierre singled to lead off, and Jazmin Daigle reached on an error. With one out, Brooke Donovan launched a three-run home run to center, good for an 8-5 Coastal edge. After a three-batter fourth for the Chanticleers, Robinson hit a leadoff single in the bottom of the frame. The Lady Flames left a runner on second, and Coastal's three-run advantage remained. The visitors received two baserunners with two outs during the fifth, before Sara Rasley flied out to end the threat. With one out in the bottom of the fifth inning, Amber Donovan doubled. Allen followed by singling, pushing runners to first and third. Quolas escaped the jam with a strikeout and a groundout. Hayden tacked on an insurance run for the Chanticleers, hitting her team-leading 15th homer of the season to open the seventh inning. Brittingham then fanned the next two batters, before getting Noad to fly out. Quolas retired the Lady Flames in order in the seventh, securing the 9-5 victory and series sweep for Coastal Carolina. The Lady Flames will wrap up their 2013 regular-season slate on Tuesday, hosting the Virginia Tech Hokies for two games at Liberty Softball Field. Game one between Liberty and Virginia Tech is set to begin at 2 p.m. on Tuesday.

Today, Jarden Corp. announced that it had entered into a definitive purchase agreement to acquire Yankee Candle Investments, LLC from a fund managed by Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC, a private equity firm, for approximately $1.75 billion in cash. The transaction will extend Jarden's portfolio of consumer brands in niche, seasonal staple categories.
Jarden noted that the deal also would establish new cross-selling opportunities, broaden its global distribution platform and deepen the company's talent bench. When it completes the transaction, Jarden will have pro forma net sales and adjusted EBITDA of approximately $7.7 billion and $1 billion, respectively, for the 12 months ended June 30, the company pointed out. Yankee Candle, as an addition to Jarden's Branded Consumables segment, will further balance the acquiring company's portfolio, expanding the segment to 35% of combined sales. Jarden maintained that it is expects cash on hand, common equity and a mix of bank debt and bonds will fund the transaction.
Yankee Candle has a leading market position in its core categories, a loyal customer base and an experienced management team, characteristics that align with what Jarden asserted are its strategic preferences. Jarden added that Yankee Candle has delivered consistent organic growth that is in line with its overall top-line growth profile of 3% to 5%, as well as strong margins and solid cash flow.
Jarden pointed out that it expects the Yankee Candle transaction to add 10% to its adjusted earnings per share pre synergies.
"We are delighted to announce this acquisition, which is consistent with our more than 10-year track record of success in acquiring leading consumer brands synonymous with their niche categories," said Martin Franklin, Jarden's founder and executive chairman. "The iconic Yankee Candle brand is a natural extension of our existing portfolio and of our Branded Consumables business segment. As a successful, well-managed and well-invested business, Yankee Candle is a solid platform for us to leverage our proven, time-tested and portable brand-building approach and to drive additional value through investments in brand equity, product development and innovation. As our first significant acquisition since April 2010, Yankee Candle embodies all of the characteristics of our market-leading brands, while offering a compelling financial and strategic value proposition."
James Lillie, Jarden's CEO, said, "Not only will this acquisition immediately enhance our financial performance and create exciting new revenue drivers, but also it will expand the deep bench of talent that we have developed over the years. Our complementary strengths and skill sets pave the way for new cross-selling opportunities, cross-brand collaboration, partnerships and cross-business support, accelerating revenue growth across our global platform and driving long-term shareholder value. Jarden's global presence, capabilities and scale will facilitate Yankee Candle's expansion into new markets and geographies to further drive top-line growth and profitability. At the same time, Yankee Candle's gross profit and EBITDA margins will enhance Jarden's overall margins. Potential future cost and distribution synergies will help support investments and drive bottom-line improvements across the Jarden platform."
Jarden said it anticipates closing the Yankee Candle transaction in the fourth quarter, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.

NEW YORK—All that virtual boxing, bowling and dancing along with video game systems might not be helping kids meet their daily exercise requirements, a new study suggests.
In the report, kids who were given so-called active video games to play on a Nintendo Wii didn't end up logging any more moderate or vigorous physical activity than those given games they could play sitting on the couch.
Researchers said that it's still possible playing active Wii games instead of other video games or simply watching TV could mean youngsters burn a few extra calories.
But, "is the Wii going to really contribute to getting those sixty minutes of physical activity (a day)? I don't think it will," said Jacob Barkley, an exercise scientist from Kent State University in Ohio who didn't participate in the new research.
Some public health researchers have hoped that active video games might be an alternative to outdoor play and sports for at least some of the physical activity kids need — especially where playing outside isn't always an option.
To try to see if that's the case, researchers from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, passed out Wii consoles to 78 kids who didn't already have one, and gave half the kids their choice of active game — such as Wii Sports or Dance Dance Revolution-Hottest Party 3 — and the other half their choice of inactive game, such as Disney Sing-It Pop Hits or Super Mario Galaxy.
Tom Baranowski and his colleagues tracked the youngsters for 13 weeks, testing physical activity levels with a motion-measuring device called an accelerometer.
Participants wore the devices on a belt during four different week-long periods throughout the study, which allowed the research team to determine when they were sedentary, lightly exercising or engaged in moderate-to-vigorous exercise.
Accelerometer logs showed that throughout the study period, kids with the active games didn't get any more exercise than those given inactive video games. Kids in the active game group got an average of 25 to 28 minutes of moderate or vigorous physical activity each day — compared to between 26 and 29 minutes in the inactive video game group.
There was also no difference in minutes spent doing light physical activity or being sedentary during any week the researchers monitored, they reported Monday in the journal Pediatrics.
"We expected that playing the video games would in fact lead to a substantial increase in physical activity in the children," said Baranowski. "Frankly we were shocked by the complete lack of difference."
Baranowski said his team couldn't tell if kids just didn't end up exerting much energy playing the active games, or if they compensated for exercise they got playing Wii with less exercise at other points in the day.
Though the results represent a single experiment, he said, "Our study indicates that there's no public health benefit from having those active video games."
Nintendo was not available for comment before deadline.
It's still possible that kids playing active Wii games burned a few extra calories during their gaming sessions that the movement device didn't pick up on — for instance, if they were moving their arms a lot in a boxing game, Barkley said.
Over the course of a year, he said, playing an active instead of totally inactive video game could translate into a couple extra pounds of weight loss — or fewer pounds of weight gain.
"Maybe the Wii isn't going to increase physical activity a whole heck of a lot," said Barkley. "But it might increase caloric expenditure a little bit more than a traditional sedentary video game, and if you do that on a daily basis that could have a cumulative effect that might be beneficial."
Kevin Short, who has studied exercise and video games at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City, agreed.
"The Wii could serve as a potential replacement for sedentary screen time," like TV or other video games, he said.
"If we could replace some of that time when they're just sitting still and not moving... with something active, that may provide some benefit," said Short, who wasn't involved in the new study.
But, said "just because you can play soccer on the Wii, doesn't mean you should stop playing it outside."

Update: This article covers removal, see the IE9 Blocker Toolkit from Microsoft to keep it from installing. If you're looking for registry options, the important values are DoNotAllowIE90 and DoNotOfferIE90 in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Setup\9.0.
I've had to remove Internet Explorer 9 from a variety of new PCs lately because they're connecting to online services (hospitals, medical labs, radiology services, etc.) that are not yet compatible with the new version, including issues in Compatibility mode. I've also needed to provide instructions (now reproduced here) for some physicians to do the same on home PCs so they can connect into those same systems.

Innovators, Public Interest Groups & Open Access Supporters Pull Out Of Talks On EU Copyright In Protest
from the squandered-opportunities dept
Back in February we reported on a worrying attempt by the European Commission to reframe the discussion about modernizing copyright in Europe purely in terms of licensing, reflected in the name of the initiative, "Licences for Europe". Although originally a series of discussions were promised to "explore the potential and limits of innovative licensing and technological solutions in making EU copyright law and practice fit for the digital age," in practice moderators shut down discussions of things like exceptions or even Creative Commons licensing. As far as the Commission was concerned, it seemed the answer to updating copyright for the modern age was just old-style licensing and nothing else.
Those events took place in one of the four "discussion" groups, covering user-generated content (although there weren't many representatives of the users present -- 75% of the participants turned out to be from the copyright industry.) However, it seems that things are equally dire in the group supposedly coming up with solutions for text and data mining (TDM), a technique whereby new information is gleaned by analyzing and comparing large quantities of pre-existing digital texts. Again, the problem was the licensing straitjacket that the Commission insisted on imposing on the discussions.
This inflexibility led to a group of eminent signatories drawn from Nobel prize winners, technology SMEs, research councils, university associations, learned academies, publishers, libraries and law academics from across Europe to send a letter to the European Commission outlining some of the key problems with that approach (pdf). Among other things, it pointed out:
Organisations in the modern world access the internet, or buy and subscribe to digital content in order for humans and computers to read and develop new ideas from what they have lawfully read. We do not accept that the right for computers to read, extract facts and formulate new ideas is a separate right to the right of humans to freely perform the exact same activities.
This is a crucial point: by insisting on licensing as the only solution to text and data mining, the publishers are trying to carve out another monopoly right, and to set themselves up as gatekeepers over the knowledge contained within the articles they publish, as well as controlling access to the articles themselves. Clearly, that places unacceptable burdens on academics, and will throttle research and innovation in Europe, simply for the sake of being able to extract a further monopoly rent for the work carried out by others.
But the European Commission paid no heed, and insisted that licensing was the only way forward for handling text and data mining in Europe. Now a group of researchers, SMEs, civil society groups and open access publishers who were participating in the text and data mining talks, have had enough, as their recent letter makes clear (pdf):
We believe that any meaningful engagement on the legal framework within which data driven innovation exists must, as a point of centrality, address the issue of limitations and exceptions. Having placed licensing as the central pillar of the discussion, the "Licences for Europe" Working Group has not made this focused evaluation possible. Instead, the dialogue on limitations and exceptions is only taking place through the refracted lens of licensing. This incorrectly presupposes that additional relicensing of already licensed content (i.e. double licensing) -- and by implication also licensing of the open internet -- is
the solution to the rapid adoption of TDM technology.
This approach also undermines the considerable work that has been done in Europe to increase the amount of Open Access content available and encourage its exploitation. We are concerned, therefore, that our participation in a discussion that focuses primarily on proprietary licenses could be used to imply that our sectors accept the notion of double licensing of as a solution. It is not. We firmly believe that "the right to read is the right to mine".
The European Commission's refusal even to allow people to discuss that issue left only one option:
Given the above, and the fact that we need to prioritise our limited resources in a way which will best help the Commission to create an appropriate legal and environmental framework for data-driven innovation within the EU, we believe our contribution will be more productive outside the "Licences for Europe" framework. Therefore, we can no longer participate in the "Licences for Europe" process.
This is a real slap in the face for the European Commission, and for those who have organized these discussions in such a narrow and uncompromising way. As we saw with the user-generated content track, the sessions there were stacked with industry representatives that supported the Commission's line, thus depriving its outcome of any kind of legitimacy. With the withdrawal of such an important group of stakeholders from the text and data mining discussions, the same is now true for this key area.
As a result, the entire Licences for Europe strategy lies in tatters, since it consists almost entirely of the usual copyright maximalists talking amongst themselves, studiously ignoring the changes brought about by the Internet, and simply demanding even more while offering nothing of value. What's disappointing is that in the wake of ACTA's defeat last year it seemed that the European Commission had finally realized that it could not simply keep applying the upward copyright ratchet, and had recognized that things needed to change if it wanted to avoid more people taking to the streets in protest. The Licences for Europe fiasco shows that the Commission has in fact learned nothing.

If anything good can be said to be coming out of Amy Winehouse's death at age 27—and considering her young age, it's a cold comfort—it's that people seem to be re-discovering her music. Sales of her 2007 breakthrough Back To Black soared over the weekend, hitting the top of the U.S. and U.K. iTunes charts. In Britain, the album re-entered the albums chart, rising to No. 59 within hours of her death.
Winehouse's resurgent commercial fortunes could pave the way for the release of her long-in-the-works (and still unfinished) third record. While the songs reportedly never progressed beyond the demo stage, it's been suggested that there's enough material for a new record. "She constantly wrote music, that's what she did. There are lots of demos knocking around and all sorts," a spokesman told Reuters. Winehouse's parents will have final say over whether the recordings are released.

Most stitching was lately for "Manhattan Wonderland" which I have troubles to stop with. Finally I love every stitch again and look forward to the evening to sit down and stitch.
AND (insert a happy dance here) I received the chart for "Christmas at Hawk Run Hollow" and will start that soonish. The fabric is already sown to the scroll rolls, and the threads for part one are ready and sorted too. I ordered a beautiful 25ct Lugana in the color "Vintage Marble Country Mocha" and will use this. Because I never stitched on 40ct I tried that on a small piece. I have a fat quater of Light Examplar 40ct floating around. But decided after only couple of stitches that stitching over one on 25ct flows way easier off my hands. For 40ct I need a magnifier and have to be careful not to miss one of these tiny threads. 25ct is easy to see, and needs way less concentration for me. I rather do something small on 40ct first. But who knows, may be in couple of months I at once love working on 40ct. Things tend to change from while to while...lol.
3 weeks ago I started another travel project. One of my kitted up ones which was patiently waiting for its turn. It's a scissor pocket. Nancy started stitching it as well, and she finished it now couple of times to give it to some friends.You should have a look here at her fantastic color choices. I'm not using the original colors either, but chose a mixture of Threadworx and Gentle Art threads
On the knitting front I finished another square for the Aran Afghan. This one is designed by Ann Strong. And I still haven't started to put the squares together...lol.
And because I was tired of my wool floating freely around while knitting- and because my Jack Russel Lucy AND my cats thought that was purely to pleasure them - I made a "Caddy" as it's offially called. I call it a sown bucket...LOL. The plan was to put a hard bottom into it, but I decided against it and leave it as it it. This way I can easy put it away next to my seat. I also store smaller stitching wips in there.

You might think he was on Top Design instead of The Apprentice because Bill Rancic has a way of turning his personal residential properties from gold to... super gold. In his third transaction since 2009, Rancic has sold another property without taking a loss, according to Curbed. His swank Park Tower condo in Chicago, which he bought a year ago for $1.1 million, just sold for $1.425 million. It's not as lucrative as his Gold Coast row house, which he bought for $1.5 million and sold for $3.6 million (just two years later), but Trump's little helper ain't complaining. In the meantime, it seems Rancic's main home with super-skinny, TV-anchor wife Giuliana is a mcMansion in Hinsdale.

The $334 million taken in by "Alice in Wonderland" was a wake-up call to Hollywood producers, reminding them that girls--yes, girls--can actually attract people to the theater. So of course that means we need at least two "Snow White" movies.
Tarsem, the visionary director of the cult gem "The Fall," has been signed on to helm an as yet untitled "Snow White" film for Relativity Media, reported Deadline. The film opens with Snow's evil stepmother killing her father and laying waste to the kingdom. But Snow rallies a band of dwarves to reclaim her throne.
This film is not to be confused with the "Snow White & The Huntsman," the Universal film that is courting Johny Depp and Charlize Theron for the leads. The studio is placing such a big bet on this project that they;ve scheduled it to open the same weekend as the first chapter of "The Hobbit." Goo luck with that.
U.S. & World
And of course who can forget "Snow White and the Seven," a retelling of the fable set in British Colonial China that was co-written by Michael Chabon and was hoping to star Natalie Portman? That version seems DOA, which is just as well, cuz really, how many Snow Whites can you watch in a year?
Tarsem's next film, the Greek myth epic "Immortals," which promises to be the film we all hoped "Clash of the Titans" would be, comes out Nov. 11, 2011.

Guest poem sent in by Katherine E. Hudson
(Poem #1431) London
I wander thro' each charter'd street, Near where the charter'd Thames does flow, And mark in every face I meet Marks of weakness, marks of woe. In every cry of every Man, In every Infant's cry of fear, In every voice, in every ban, The mind-forg'd manacles I hear. How the Chimney-sweeper's cry Every black'ning Church appalls; And the hapless Soldier's sigh Runs in blood down Palace walls. But most thro' midnight streets I hear How the youthful Harlot's curse Blasts the new born Infant's tear, And blights with plagues the Marriage hearse.
I was talking about this poem with a friend this evening and went to the Minstrels site looking for it. I was surprised by its absence, as I think it's one of Blake's best-crafted efforts. Though I like Blake a lot for his views, commitment, and occasional memorable phrase (not to mention his art), I don't really think he was a first-rank poet. But "London" hangs together beautifully in terms of coherent and powerful imagery as well as rhyme and meter. Two metaphors in the poem are especially heart-rending: "the hapless Soldier's sigh/ Runs in blood down Palace walls" and "the youthful Harlot's curse/. . . /Blights with plagues the Marriage hearse." (Though, bearing in mind the risk of veneral disease, the latter may not be metaphor so much as acknowledgment of reality.) Much could also be said about how this poem expresses Blake's enduring concern with issues of personal freedom and social justice--e.g., restrictive laws, hypocrisy in organized religion, poverty and the evils that flow from it, including disease (testicular cancer was recognized in Blake's time as an occupational hazard of chimney-sweeps) and prostitution.

It Was Just a Matter of Time
SoxFest Day 3: Weekend Ends With Sox Fans Excited About Upcoming Season
It was a weekend Lovefest at SoxFest.
Sox-wise and Otherwise: The Hunt for Paul Konerko and the Loss of a Great Sox Fan
The White Sox have surely kept me in blogging mode with all of the activity in the last few days:
Sox Have Crazy Thursday: Non-Tender Jenks, Sign Dunn, Bring A.J. Back into the Fold and Pick Up Alexei's Option
A Dunn Deal?
Jenks is a Goner, Mr. Perfect Only 2005 Survivor on Current Sox Roster
Sox Make Key Decisions on Paulie, A.J., J.J.
Sox-wise and Otherwise: Will Buehrle be the Last Man Standing From 2005 World Champs?
Here's a sobering thought.
When White Sox spring training begins in February, Mark Buehrle may very well be the lone survivor from the 2005 World
It's certainly premature to
carve this scenario in stone, but with Paul Konerko, A.J. Pierzynski and
Freddy Garcia free agents and Bobby Jenks arbitration eligible, the popular lefthander from St.
Charles, Mo. could stand alone.
If you think about it, it's
appropriate. Some may say Konerko would be the ideal "last man standing." But
Paulie, as beloved as he is on the South Side with one more year in a Sox
uniform than Buehrle's 11, lacks one thing–he's not a home-grown White Sox.
While some Sox fans might be surprised because Paulie is so identified with the silver and black, Konerko grew up in the Dodger organization and played briefly for the Reds before coming to Chicago. Buehrle, on the other hand, was a 38th round pick for the Pale Hose in 1998 and has been with the organization ever since.
So, if Konerko, Pierzynski,
Jenks and Garcia go elsewhere in the next few months, only Buehrle will
represent the greatest year in Sox history on the active roster–and will do it
with a pretty impressive resume. Here are some of his career highlights,
already worthy of consideration for a likeness on the left field wall at the
· Perfect
Game against the Rays
against the Rangers
wins in a Sox uniform, an impressive 38 games over .500
Major-league record 45 consecutive batters retired
All-Star, winning pitcher for AL in 2005
ALDS victory, an ALCS win and a World Series save in 2005
consecutive seasons of 200-plus innings pitched, leading the league twice–also led league twice in games started
Gold Gloves, including this past season
Sox record (8) for Opening Day starts
the game's best pickoff move
the Sox career leaders in wins, starts, innings pitched, winning percentage,
quality starts (1st) and strikeouts
And the above accomplishments
don't factor in his leadership
abilities, ultra-competitiveness, team-first attitude, good humor and
charity/community involvement.
Notes of Note: Rumors run rampant this time of year.
One is that the Sox are willing to listen to offers for Gordon Beckham (really?)…Another is that Jermaine Dye, after sitting out the entire 2010 season, wants to
play next season. Reports are that the Rockies, Phillies and Rays are
interested…Yet another is that Sox are exploring the possibility of signing
free agent closer Rafael Soriano,
who was so strong last season for the Rays. Another sign that Jenks may be a
goner…Finally, congratulations to Buehrle for his winning a 2010 Gold Glove and
Ramirez for his first Silver Slugger
award. Truth is, the Missle should have won a Gold Glove as well.

I read a lot of self-help books in an effort to stay kind of "with it."
If the book says "How To" in the title I probably own it. Pick your topic, and the leading experts tell us a new and improved way to live our lives. I don't know about you, but most of the time I don't feel very new and improved. Actually, I feel like a dinosaur.
A little research reveals that dinosaurs became extinct about 65 million years ago.
Scientists do not agree on what caused a species that had been around for 165 million previous years to up and disappear from the planet. Theories include everything from volcanic catastrophes to disease to biological changes within the dinosaurs. In other words, when it came to the "Survival of the Fittest," the dinosaur did not make the cut.
I have great compassion for the dinosaur.
I think he must have glanced around one day to find a world filled with creatures who were more agile, quicker, and seemed to know more "stuff" than he did.
He became overwhelmed that the world was going by so fast and he seemed to be standing still doing the same old dinosaur things he'd been doing for generations.
Technology has made me feel the same way. A few years ago when I was publishing a monthly magazine, I had an assistant named Christi.
She was 27 years old. There was nothing the girl could not do if it involved a camera, a software program, a cell phone or a computer.
She could also throw a spiral football, but as amazing as that was, that gift did not intimidate me.
Everyone who knows me knows athleticism has never been in my wheelhouse. It was the ease and speed with which she managed all things technological that really got to me.
She made it her mission to try to bring me from the Stone Age into the New Media Age. She eventually moved to Dallas, and I secretly suspect it was to get away from me.
I remember when she suggested that I join the professional social networking sight "Linkedin." She thought it would help me connect with some beneficial business contacts. Christi opened the site and demonstrated it. I thought, "Oh, I can do this." A few minutes later I had accidentally invited everyone in my address book to my "professional" network.
All of my dinosaur friends immediately e-mailed me quizzically asking, "What is Linkedin?"
That tells you a lot. Even so, I will not die happy unless I master a few more things in the world of today. I thought when I learned in my late forties to execute an e-mail my children should "rise up and call me blessed."
Email now feels pre-historic. In fact, most people send me a text to tell me I need to check my email.
Then, of course, there was Facebook. Again, Christi said it was mandatory, and so I learned to post and insert a photo. But there was still more to know!
Christi said to me, "You need a blog." I complied temporarily. It was just that my life was not so interesting that I believed anybody would want to follow it. I rarely updated. And when Christi moved away, I had nobody to hold me accountable.
Then came Twitter. I had a new assistant named Kate. She said I had to do it. I finally just said, "I'm tired."
I simply covered my ears when people started talking about Instagram.
Please, Everybody, could we have a moratorium on technology and social networking?
Can't we just "reach out and touch" with Ma Bell again? I tried that only to discover the whole world "has stepped away from their desk."
Although they also say, "Your call is very important to me," nobody answers or returns phone calls anymore – at least not to dinosaurs. So, what is a dinosaur to do?
A very few years ago (although it was a century ago in technology years) my daughter gave me a very nice digital camera for Christmas. It did everything except let the dogs out and make my morning coffee. All I wanted at the time was a camera with a button that snapped a photo of my grandchildren.
Betsy thought I needed the super deluxe incredible model not understanding that I did not have the brain cells to operate the one she bought. By the way, it was the size of my pinkie finger and got lost in my purse all the time.
About the time I learned to operate it, cameras were obsolete. Our smartphones gave us digital cameras that worked just as well.
I do believe that there are worse things than being a dinosaur. I do wish I had known 40 or 50 years ago the things I have figured out at this late date. But none of them are about technology.
Sometimes I look at my 13 grandchildren and worry about the culture they are inheriting. I don't think our Postmodern era values the same things my generation and our parents' and grandparents' generations valued.
That is not to say their parents aren't trying hard to teach them to love God, love other people and do right, but it does seem to my finite mind that they are not getting any help with that message from the world beyond their front door.
If I write a book about life lessons and dedicate it to my grandchildren, do you think they might want to read it? Do you think there is a place for a book like that? I am hoping so because that is my new project.
I'll keep you posted. If you have any suggestions, email me at email@example.com. I am all ears!

Oh Ely. You good, girl. You very, very good.
Yesterday we were treated to photos – click here for a refresher – of the Italian Queen getting nuzzled by George Clooney upon arrival at Giorgio Armani in Milan. Today it's the front row thigh squeeze.
Look how she looks at him so adoringly and how he rewards her with a sexy hand on her thigh, tag teaming with a handhold. It's the happiest time in her life. And, apparently, in his. I want to look like that in tuxedo pants.
Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green were also front row at Armani, seemingly inseparable at public functions now that they're officially married. It's... rather sweet. And her face didn't look so pretend-y this time either. Some of you have posited that she's pregnant. I don't think she's pregnant. At least I hope she's not pregnant. These two need to get rid of the bad sh-t first.

Roaming Urban Soundscapes: The Anniversaries of John Cage & New York Mycological Society
Saturday, September 8, 2012, 8 - 11pm
Add to Calendar
(August 2012, New York) A celebration of the 50th anniversary of New York Mycological Society, a not-for-profit membership organization dedicated to educating the public about mushrooms and the centenary of its founder, composer John Cage.
Both events will be held at The Cooper Union (The Great Hall, in the Foundation Building, 7 East 7th Street, between Third and Fourth Avenues) the weekend of September 7-8, 2012. For further information please go to: newyorkmyc.org
The theatrical event, to be held in the Great Hall on Saturday, September 8, will be a grand multi-media Cagean simultaneity featuring live performances by Jonas Mekas, Jim Kerr, Gary Lincoff and Chris Mann. There will be a special realization of Cage's 49 Waltzes for the Five Boroughs and a lively visual backdrop of mushroom stills and movies collected and produced over the last fifty years.
A special limited availability gala ticket includes a prime seat in the theater and a multicourse buffet prepared by and given in the home of nationally known chef and author Eugenia Bone (Mycophilia: Revelations from the Weird World of Mushrooms;
The gallery event, September 7 & 8 will feature the first complete exhibition of the Lois Long and John Cage's Mushroom Book. This mounting is a signal event that marks an effort by the John Cage Trust, in collaboration with the NYMS, to make these lithographs more widely available. The gallery will also have ephemera from NYMS archives, mushroom art by present and former NYMS members, and a display of mushroom specimens collected from the NYC environment.
These programs are being held as a benefit for the NYMS and the John Cage Trust.
Program Notes:
The musical life of John Cage is amply documented. His Beethoven-sized catalog stands on its own as testament to a fertile mind. Manifold volumes of criticism, encomiums, books, interviews and his literary output amplify his musical influence. His interest in mycology is well known but there are few accounts of his work in this field. We have his own words scattered throughout his writings and a few articles by friends and associates.
As a dedicated chowhound he was always foraging. And while he brought a valedictory mind to his mycological pursuits, he remained the brilliant student but did not add to the scientific mycological literature. The myco-legacy that does remain is embodied in the lore of the New York Mycological Society, which arose from a course in mushroom identification that he taught at the New School for Social Research in the fall of 1962. The Society was founded as a solution to a problem facing him: the management of mushroom walks and lectures required manpower that he alone could not provide.
Tonight we hope the audience will enjoy the sights and sounds of the mushroom hunt, Cage's and other NYMS members' stories culled and perhaps burnished in time. You will hear and see an eclectic mix of eccentric New Yorkers. There is Gwen Fabricant's account of her summer in Cage's Stony Point house, which led her, as it did Cage himself, to explore the fungal flora outside the door. Laurette Reisman née Shapiro, one of the members of that New School class, tells us about those beginning days. Gary Lincoff, Howard Goldstein, Ralph Cox and others will figure into tonight's presentation. Many of our more recent members are also making contributions tonight in sound and in film. And, after all, what would be the fun in a gathering of mushroomers without a good tale or two of mushroom poisoning (survived)!
From stories like these we see that Cage's mushroom legacy lives on. We hope you take joy in the delight we all share.

Next summer, Houma native Brittany Guidry will step into the national spotlight as she vies for the title of Miss USA.
Next summer, Houma native Brittany Guidry will step into the national spotlight as she vies for the title of Miss USA.
The Vandebilt alumna was crowned Miss Louisiana USA 2014 in Lafayette over the weekend. She competed in the pageant as Miss Louisiana Florida Parishes.
Guidry moved to Lafayette to study public relations at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, though she took a break this semester to prepare for the pageant.
The 20-year-old said she'll take the upcoming semester off as well to gear up for Miss USA and focus more on her modeling career.
Getting ready for a pageant — especially one as big as Miss USA — takes work.
"A lot of people think it's just about working out and eating right because they always think about the swimsuit portion," she said. "But it's a lot of mental preparation too."
The competition has three evenly weighted parts — swimsuit, evening gown and interview. Contestants are expected to be well-spoken, poised and up to date on current events.
"There's a one-on-one personal interview with the judges during pageant weekend," she said. "I spend a lot of time practicing with my coach."
Then there are the outfits. Contestants change clothes several times throughout the competition, so Guidry will have to find the perfect swimsuit and dresses to wow the judges.
Guidry wasn't always so interested in getting dolled up. Growing up in Houma, Guidry said she took full advantage of the area's outdoor sports and activities.
"I was the biggest tomboy," she said. "I always went hunting with my dad or fishing with my parents."
When she watched her cousin, Michelle Berthelot, get crowned Miss Louisiana USA in 2008, the then-15-year-old made a life-changing decision.
"It sparked a little fire in me," she said with a laugh.
Guidry competed in Miss Louisiana Teen USA — and won — the following year. She was the fourth runner-up in the Miss Teen USA pageant.
"It was so much fun," she said. "That's what made me want to keep doing this."
Paula Miles, executive director of RPM Productions, which puts on the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants for Louisiana, Alabama, North Carolina and South Carolina, said she's looking forward to working with Guidry again.
Guidry will make dozens of appearances as Miss Louisiana USA throughout the state over the next year, Miles said.
Miles said she has high expectations for Guidry in the She'll compete for the title of Miss USA in the summer pageant.
"She did very well at Miss Teen USA," Miles said. "So I expect she'll do very well in this one."

Lyrics: Robert Hunter
Music: Greg Anton, Mari Tamburo
A Robert Hunter song played by Gregg's Eggs.
Friday Hand was out of a job
Hangin' out in the sun, lookin' for love
Along came Israel Bond singin'
"Way To Go" like a sad song
They happened to meet on Juniper Street
"Aye aye amigo, long time no see
"What cha doin' to make ends meet?
"Good to see you back on the street"
"Hey I want to talk about the job
They say went down in Detroit
Tell me the truth, look me straight in the eyes
Did you confess under duress?
Or was it the DA tellin' me lies?"
"Now Israel, I had the same thought
Meant to put it to you
Since you put it to me first
I believe we can get to the truth"
"You look broke" said Israel Bond
"And I could use a hand"
"Well here's mine, shake" said Friday
"Let's throw together a band"
God only knows what he's talkin' about
God only knows but he tries
Friday Hand, out of a job
And Israel Bond on the fly
"How'd you spend your time
In the Detroit prison?"
"You know it seemed like a hundred years
I read a little and thought a lot
Thought I had two scores to settle
Now you got nothin' to fear"
Lolly was lost in jukebox light
Swayin' to a rhythm band
Not prepared for Israel Bond
Much less Friday Hand
She tried to smile but her eyes betrayed
The fear inside her heart
Her pulse was like a hammer
That broke her mask apart
God only knows what she's talkin' about
God only knows but she tries
Friday Hand, out of a job
And Israel Bond on the fly
When lies are dealt to find the truth
That truth ain't worth a candle
But it's sweet to be on the street again
And that's as much as I can handle
"Lolly, Lolly you look so sweet
Butter wouldn't melt on you
Lolly, Lolly what I want to know
Why'd you tell all you knew?"
Without waiting to hear
He pulled his blade
"I believe I'll carve my name on you"
She screamed "damn your black soul
Israel Bond, what do you expect me to do?
I only told them what I knew
After hearing all you told on me"
"I never told one word" he said
"Not one in all those years
But just kept thinkin' when I got out
I wash my hands in your tears
But open a bottle of sparkling wine
My last five will buy
That poison inside me was a sea
Now that sea is dry"
The law takes a lot more than it gives
When they take away your trust
A loss of time is one thing
But the other is a real bust
God only knows what he's talkin' about
God only knows but he tries
Friday Hand, out of a job
And Israel Bond on the fly

Hey there Still looking for a girl?
I could try this.
Hi there You bet we are! If you want the spot it is yours.
So boys, what kinda girls are you into?
I was looking at your picture collection in your profile and I trust you will make a very tantalizing character. But if I gave input it would be: sweet and innocent the better.
@Hercinia - I vote #4 or #10@criminal - Sounds good, put up a character sheet.
Oh don't put this on me, I would happily take Olivia Wylde.... Ten it is...
I was thinking about using Matthew Gray Gubler from Criminal Minds as model for my character.
