12.12.12 -- The Concert for Sandy Relief , the star-packed benefit for the victims of the massive storm that recently battered the northeastern U.S., takes place tonight at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The show's lineup features quite a few celebrities who hail from some the areas hit hardest by the storm, including Alicia Keys . The roster also includes Kanye West .
In conjunction with promoting the charity event, Alicia discussed some of the devastation she witnessed in her hometown and why it's so important for people to support the victims of the storm.
"I was born and raised in New York," Alicia says, "And I was here during everything that happened with Sandy, to witness my city, and the Tri-State Area go through something where nobody could really control it."
The singer recently told Essence magazine that after her SoHo home lost power, she and her family -- husband, Swizz Beatz , and 2-year-old son, Egypt -- waited things out at her mother's apartment.
But Keys' thoughts were with others who were affected by the vicious storm. "You kind of couldn't believe, that -- that it was going on to this degree," she says. "It really displaced people, and devastated people's whole lives." Even now, people are still struggling, Alicia says, "to the point where, for so many people there's still now -- today, right now, a month later -- you know, still, if not without a home, without electricity, without heat."
Looking back on the days leading up to the storm, Alicia says, "I think all of us maybe misjudged exactly how difficult it would end up being. And I think that was really a big wake-up call."
In the face of tough times though, people in the New York area are working together to keep going after the storm. "For me as a New Yorker to see us all coming together to really wanna help each other really showed me what a great country we are," Alicia says.
As previously reported, the 12.12.12 concert gets under way at 7:30 p.m. ET, and will air live on various TV stations across the globe and will stream on select websites. In addition, a free simulcast of the concert will be held in a number of movie theaters in New Jersey, New York and Connecticut, while paid screenings will take place in other parts of the U.S. to raise additional funds for the cause.
Proceeds from the 12.12.12 concert and album will benefit the Robin Hood Relief Fund, which is providing money, materials and information to charitable organizations in the northeastern U.S. that are helping families and areas severely affected by the storm.

Perth holidays are wonderful because of the sun, the beaches and the friendly people. Perth holidays can leave you with lifelong memories, especially if you spend your Perth holidays watching the beautiful sunsets from the world-famous Perth beaches. Try Scarborough beach for your Perth holidays, where you'll find a special boutique resort called Beach Manor Bed and Breakfast.

NHL Playoffs, First Round column archives.
May 2, 2013
by Matthew Coller
The Montreal Canadiens improved from worst in the Eastern Conference all the way to a second seed, while the Ottawa Senators made the playoffs despite losing Jason Spezza, Erik Karlsson, and Craig Anderson all for large portions of the shortened season. It's a battle of feel good stories as well as division rivals.
May 1, 2013
by Ryan Schwepfinger
Even putting Sidney Crosby aside, the Penguins have a boatload of talent. But the surprising Islanders are led by their own Hart Trophy hopeful in former first overall pick John Tavares.
by Jonathan Willis
The Vancouver Canucks and the San Jose Sharks are two teams that have had a great deal of success over the past several seasons, but that have been ultimately viewed as postseason disappointments. One will fail yet again, but one will move on.
by Ryan Wagman
The Maple Leafs are back in the playoffs! But with some ugly looking possession numbers, do they have any chance against the 2011 champion Boston Bruins?
April 30, 2013
Anaheim started the season on fire and played well enough to finish with the fifth-best goal differential in the NHL. Meanwhile, the Lidstrom-less Red Wings went until Game 48 before they qualified for the playoffs. It may be a mismatch at a glance, but as we dig into the numbers, it could be an upset in the making.
by Robert Vollman
There's an argument to be made that, outside of the Chicago Blackhawks, the two best teams in the Western Conference are battling in this #4 vs. #5 matchup. Only one will emerge to continue a possible march to the Cup.
April 29, 2013
Last July, the Minnesota Wild surprisingly landed the two biggest free agents of the offseason in Zach Parise and Ryan Suter. Does the underdog have a puncher's chance against the President's Trophy winning Chicago Blackhawks?
April 28, 2013
by Corey Sznajder
After a dismal start, the Washington Capitals have been on fire in March and April, led by the once-again great Alex Ovechkin. But there are reasons to believe that a long series could go to the sixth-seeded New York Rangers.
April 13, 2012
Peter DeBoer's New Jersey Devils take on his former team, the Florida Panthers, in the playoffs for the first time in recent memory.
April 12, 2012
Usually one of the top seeds in the West, San Jose snuck into the playoffs in the last week of the season. They're matched against the up-and-coming Blues, who haven't won a playoff game yet since the lockout.
by Ryan Popilchak
The surprising Senators took three of four games against the President's Trophy-hopeful Rangers. So can they pull off the upset against King Henrik and the Blueshirts?
April 11, 2012
by Kent Wilson
Jonathan Quick kept them in the playoff hunt, but the Los Angeles Kings have upped their game since the trade deadline. Might they really be good enough to knock off the President's Trophy winning Canucks?
April 10, 2012
The defending Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins are miles ahead of the underachieving Washington Capitals by GVT. But is there an argument for the series being closer than it looks on the surface?
by Tom Awad
Not only is Pittsburgh vs. Philadelphia the marquee matchup of the first round based on talent, the animosity between the two bitter rivals makes for must-see theatre.
April 9, 2012
Mike Smith's incredible season culminated in a fantastic final two weeks that saw him top the NHL in GVT. Can his Cinderella ride continue, taking the Coyotes/Jets franchise past the opening round for the first time since 1986-87? The star-studded Blackhawks, one year removed from hoisting the Stanley Cup, stand in their way.
It's inexperience vs. experience, even strength and puck possession success vs. special teams success.
April 14, 2011
Montreal native Tom Awad gives us his read on what's become by far the most heated rivalry in the NHL.
by Philip Myrland
Is there any way that the Los Angeles Kings can overcome the red-hot San Jose Sharks without their best player?
The Buffalo Sabres rallied in the second half of the season to make it to the postseason dance. Can they outduel what was the strongest team in the Eastern Conference for most of the regular season?
April 13, 2011
by Timo Seppa
With New York dominating the season series against Washington, are the Capitals in line to get knocked out of the playoffs by a lower seed yet again?

What experiences have made you more comfortable with mental health disorders?
What things make you fearful of mental health disorders? And what experiences have made you more comfortable with it?
In the quest to dispell stigma, how can we help our society grow out of its fear?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Nov 9 2012: What refreshing perspectives are represented in these posts. I couldn't agree more, that 'labels' are more destructive than beneficial. And who are the labels beneficial for? The doctors, the system of so-called mental health professionals and society to put these folks in a box. Meanwhile 'these' so-called sane folks use lobotomies, shock treatments and chemical castrations of all kinds to 'render' these misfits 'controllable'.
Read R. D. Laing's seminal work, The politics of experience to better understand the depths of absurdity of what we call 'NORMAL' , the misplaced basis of much of our mental health.
I would suggest that as much damage as labels do to the labeled, they do far more damage to the Doctors and society, as their ability to 'see' clearly is shrouded in a deep fog of ignorance, profits and quick fixes. How many savants have we destroyed in our system of boxes and labels? How many doctors have trouble sleeping as they remember the pain and suffering of their 'lobotomies and chemical castrations'? Who are the victims and who are the perpetrators? How far as our 'science' of psychiatry come since the days of Germany during world war 2?
I applaud the ladies here who question the broken system of labels. Let me add my name to the list who agree with that conclusion.
Human behavior and consciousness isn't deterministic. We all have free will, and where there is a will, there is a way.
Comment deleted
Ezra ScarletNov 11 2012: I would like state I agree with craig that we shouldn't label people. Though that doesn't mean we should stop psychiatric treatment for people. I fully understand what it's like to have a mental and be judged for it, and understand the need for mental health though my experience. To start off use of shock-treatment has been strictly forbidden in all mental institutions second I know a lot of people with in the mental health fields none of them seen, or condoned lobotomies. If you're make claims please put in current facts about the Issue's.
Nov 11 2012: I do in fact have adhd, which I must take medicine for due to the fact that I'm considerable less able to function in my life. I can honestly say I don't like taking meds and prefer I didn't means to control the disorder, and I did in fact stop takes the meds for quite a some months. This unfortunately had serious negative effect's Adhd is basically Attention Deficit Disorder meaning I lack focus. This doesn't mean all adhd is the same and shouldn't be classfied as such. For instance my flaw is that I get exceedingly so one track focused that my mind goes into a trance and my brain moves on autopilot which causes me to lose the essential sense of my surroundings. Unlike my brother who can not focus on any tasks not even playing games outside. Unless it it involves watching TV or which I recently found out just Watching and listening to my ipod. Then he was able to maintain complete focus for awhile.
I digress my flaw inevitable caused me serious short term memory loss, at such levels that could be confused with having dementia. In my last month of not taking medicine I lost my Key's, My boyfriend's Key, Spare Keys, Id, Shoes, notes, as well as forgetting to complete certain essential tasks.
Which oddly combined with special K cereal, caused me to lose a good appetite and I ended up starving myself of essential Nutrients. Now my boyfriend has banned me Special K and all other diet food seeing how it turned me into a zombie. Again I disgress. Point being is that I have flaws on which I need to take medicine for.
Nov 11 2012: Though I don't believe people make accurate claims when they say they have adhd. One because everyone tends to daydream or lose focus once in awhile, this isn't adhd nor should people claim it as such. If that were the case anyone who has ever being caught up reading a book they found interesting has ADHD. adhd Implies that constantly daydreaming or constant racing mind causes a person to detrimentally forget things because they lack the ability to come out of that trace.
The large claims of ADHD has positives and negatives one people are more excepting of the disability. Second is that people with ADHD are believed to be incapable of simple task of need of constant help. I often deal with such belief's and prove to people that I am in fact capable. People worry that I'll will burn down my appartment because I will forget to turn off the gas or that I would die in a car accident because I would be lose train of thought.
I would comment more on this But really tired.

The American Civil War: A Military History (Vintage Civil War Library)by John Keegan
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
For the past half century, John Keegan, the greatest military historian of our time, has been returning to the scenes of Americas most bloody and wrenching war to ponder its lingering conundrums: the continuation of fighting for four years between such vastly mismatched sides; the dogged persistence of ill-trained, ill-equipped, and often malnourished combatants; the effective absence of decisive battles among some two to three hundred known to us by name. Now Keegan examines these and other puzzles with a peerless understanding of warfare, uncovering dimensions of the conflict that have eluded earlier historiography.
While offering original and perceptive insights into psychology, ideology, demographics, and economics, Keegan reveals the wars hidden shapea consequence of leadership, the evolution of strategic logic, and, above all, geography, the Rosetta Stone of his legendary decipherments of all great battles. The American topography, Keegan argues, presented a battle space of complexity and challenges virtually unmatched before or since. Out of a succession of mythic but chaotic engagements, he weaves an irresistible narrative illuminated with comparisons to the Napoleonic Wars, the First World War, and other conflicts.
The American Civil War is sure to be hailed as a definitive account of its eternally fascinating subject.
From the Hardcover edition.
While offering original and perceptive insights into psychology, ideology, demographics, and economics, Keegan reveals the war's hidden shape--a consequence of leadership, the evolution of strategic logic, and, above all, geography.
The greatest military historian of our time gives a peerless account of America's most bloody, wrenching, and eternally fascinating war.
In this long-awaited history, John Keegan shares his original and perceptive insights into the psychology, ideology, demographics, and economics of the American Civil War. Illuminated by Keegan's knowledge of military history he provides a fascinating look at how command and the slow evolution of its strategic logic influenced the course of the war. Above all, The American Civil War gives an intriguing account of how the scope of the conflict combined with American geography to present a uniquely complex and challenging battle space. Irresistibly written and incisive in its analysis, this is an indispensable account of America's greatest conflict.

Brandon Routh: I Owe 'Everything' To Superman
Brandon Routh first burst on the scene in "Superman Returns," a movie he credits for his current success.
"That [movie] was amazing. It has put me where I am today," he said of the 2006 superhero movie, where he played Clark Kent/Superman, when he stopped by Access Hollywood Live on Friday.
"I owe pretty much everything to that film and that opportunity and I'm very grateful for it," he told Billy Bush and Kit Hoover.
In addition to Brandon's new role on CBS' "Partners," which airs Mondays at 8:30 PM, the 33-year-old loves his new dad role to son Leo, who he and wife Courtney Ford welcomed in August.
"It's amazing, it's exhausting, but lovely and amazing," the actor said of his newborn. "Something [new is] happening every day!"
Brandon credits wife Courtney for taking the brunt of the late-night baby duties, but he did share one of his signature techniques for getting his son to fall back asleep.
"If he doesn't go down after a while and there's enough fussing, I get up, pick him up, put him on my chest and pat him and that usually puts him to sleep," he told Billy and Kit.

I Can't Begin To Let You Know Just What I'm Feeling6 Reviews
Worried friends and Gerard's inner feelings.
-ASM x3
Gerard's POV
I fall into the passenger seat of my brother's Toyota Corolla with a heavy sigh. After a long day at hell, more commonly known as school, I'm ready to get home and lock myself in my room, located in the basement of my home. Some people might find living in a basement creepy and uninviting, but I'm not most people. Most people don't fantasize about their death on a daily basis either, but there you go.
I stare out the window shield infront of me and squint through the blazing afternoon sun. Just a few feet infront of the car I spot my younger brother, Mikey, speaking to one of our close friends, Ray Toro. Well, Mikey and Ray are still close, but as of lately Ray and I no longer are. I can't even remember the last time we had a full conversation. Hell, I can't remember the last time I had a full, decent conversation with anyone. It's not that I don't like Ray, I absolutely adore that tall, 'fro haired, Iron Maiden freak. He's one of the only people in this god forsaken school I can actually stomach apart from Mikey and our other mutual friend, Bob Bryar.
Speaking of Bob, I catch sight of a blonde side fringe and lip piercing gleaming in the late afternoon sun, heading towards Mikey and Ray, and recognize him immediately. He slows his steady pace once he reaches the passenger seat window and waves at me, a hesitant smile adorning his lips. I look up at him, not making eye contact, and nod my head. Normally I would force a fake smile on my face and wave back in an effort to be polite, but I was feeling extra shitty today and decide against it. He frowns at my meek response and I know Bob well enough to know that he wishes I would step out of the car and give him a proper greeting. But being the inconsiderate, self-loathing bastard I am, I stay glued to my seat.
He frowns even deeper and begins to make his way towards my brother and Ray. As I wait for my brother to be done socializing, I drum my fingers along the car door to my right, accidentally lowering the window in the process. I am about to bring it up again when I hear someone utter my name. Usually I wouldn't care, probably just the pricks from my History class making snide remarks about my sexuality again, but then I realize who the voice belonged to. It was Mikey.
"Are you serious? He hasn't spoken to you in two weeks?" I absent mindedly lean closer to the window, straining to hear their conversation.
"Unless you count rare grunts and sighs every now and then, yes, I'm serious, Ray. I don't know what to do anymore, I'm so worried about him, guys."
Hearing the wrecked tone of my baby brother's voice tugs at my heart and makes me want to get out of the car right then and there and incase him in a huge hug. The type of hug I haven't given him in months.
Mikey and I have always had such a great relationship. Unlike most siblings, we actually enjoy eachothers company. Sometimes I have to remind myself that he's my brother and not just my best friend. They couldn't possibly be talking about me, could they? I know I've been kind of distant lately but there's no way I've gone two weeks without speaking to Mikey.
"Maybe Gerard just isn't feeling well."
And just like that, Bob confirms that they infact are talking about me. Bob is usually a terrific liar. I still remember how he got all of us out of detention last year with an elaborate, heart felt speech about how we had to attend his beloved hamster, Freddy's, funeral. Spoken by anyone else, that speech would have landed them with another week's worth of detention courtesy of our hard ass gym teacher. But our dear Bobbert left even the buff, grumpy, Mr.Heffmen in tears.
The memory of that day almost brings a smile to my face. Almost. It seems that whenever the sides of my mouth even think of attempting anything but a frown or grimace, my mind takes over. It fills with all the taunts of my fellow classmates, the punches and kicks aimed at me daily, even the constant pestering and disapprovement by my parents gets to me. Just the thought of my parents has me slouching down in the car seat, as far as I can manage without sprawling on the floor. I've had enough of that today.
Mikey and I aren't exactly looked after by the next candidates for "Parents of the Year", if you can even call what they do "looking after us". They constantly set off on business trips for months on end and for the few weeks a year that they happen to be home, all they do is argue with eachother and remind me what a failure of a son I am. They are pretty easy on Mikey. In their eyes, Mikey is as close to the perfect son they could imagine. He's polite, smart, considerate, a neat freak, responsible, and has this easygoing charm to him. Sure, he may be a little shy but once you get him out of his shell he's nothing but pleasant to be around. Then there's me. Mikey's awkward, morbid, depressed, homosexual older brother who doubles as a punching bag for all the school bullies. Needless to say, Mikey and I are as different as day and night. Summer and winter. Hot and cold. Justin Bieber and Green Day.
"You're not fooling anyone, Bob. I can tell you're just as worried about Gerard as Mikey and I are. We've gotta do something."
"No offense guys, but the last thing Gerard needs right now is an intervention. Just give him some time, I'm sure he'll open up to us sooner or later". I make a mental note to thank Bob for that.
"Besides, it's not like he's done anything stupid. Just been a little quiet, that's all."
Mikey rubs his knuckles together subconsciously and looks at the ground, avoiding eye contact with Bob and Ray. Anyone who knows Mikey well enough, knows that's a sure fire sign that he's hiding something.
"That is all he's done, right Mikey?" Ray says, looking a bit on edge.
"Um...well...I was walking by our parent's liquor cabinet in the kitchen the other day and noticed some bottles were missing."
"How many bottles, exactly?"
Mikey gulps audibly before saying, "All of them."
"WHAT?!" Ray and Bob yell in unison.
"Dude, Mikey, there must have been over 50 bottles in that liquor cabinet!"
"Slow down guys, we don't know for certain that Gerard took them all." Oh, dear Ray, being the optimist of the group as usual.
"Ray, I'm sure it was. I snuck a look into Gerard's room this morning and saw a mess of broken bottles all over the floor."
The three of them just stood there for a few moments, quiet and deep in thought, all equally concerned for their friend and brother. I find the whole situation hard to sit through. Not only do I hate people taking pity in me, but now that Mikey knows about my drinking habits, I'm gonna have to be twice as careful when sneaking booze into my room. I know they're worried about me but the booze is all I have left. The only thing that can possibly get me through the day to live and see another sunrise. That and the drugs I've slowly been filling the void with. But if the guys freaked just from hearing I've been drinking a bit, they definetly don't need to know about that.
In an attempt to get Mikey to speed up the conversation and drive me home, I cough loud enough that they can hear me through the small, open gap in the car window. This successfully snaps them back to reality.
"Look, It's getting late. Mikey, just keep an eye on Gerard for now and we'll sort out what we're gonna do tomorrow."
Mikey and Ray nod half heartedly at Bob's suggestion before Mikey mumbles his good-byes and makes his way back to the car. I quickly press the button on my right and raise the window before Mikey can catch on that I was eavesdropping on their conversation. Mikey starts the car after popping in an Anthrax CD and turning up the volume. But not loud enough that he wouldn't be able to hear me if I tried starting a conversation. Which I don't.
Soon, we're turning into the driveway of our middle-class home and Mikey kills the engine. Instead of hopping out of the car immediately like I'm dieing to do, he stays seated and locks the doors, car keys clutched tightly in his hand. He says nothing but stares out the window shield, his famous poker face planted on his face. I glance over at him, completely confused as to why he locked the doors until it hits me. He's trying to get me to talk.
He knows I won't step out of the car now and cause the annoying, high-pitched car alarm to go off. It's always been one of my biggest pet peeves. So he's determined to sit in this car as long as he has to in order to get me to ask him to unlock the doors. We sit in silence for several minutes that drag on and feel like hours. I want to talk to Mikey, I really do, but I feel trapped by the constant silence that has been following me around like a shadow lately. It's like I don't have the will power to even utter a word to anyone, knowing that I'll either be ridiculed for what I say or receive pity and sympathy from the few people who care when they realize what a depressed mess I am.
They shouldn't care for me at all, they have better things to do than waste their time on someone as worthless as me. The garbage over flowing from the gaudy, green trash bin by the side of our house is worth more than me. Mikey suddenly lets out a heavy, pained sigh once he comes to grip with the fact that I won't budge. He unlocks the doors and begins to trudge up the drive way to the front door.
Before opening it, he turns to me "Gerard?"
I say nothing, but look up at him to acknowledge that I heard him.
"Ray finally gave me back my vintage copy of Dracula. I thought he'd lost it in that bird's nest he calls hair."
Normally I would have laughed at that remark, but not today.
"What do you say we order a pizza and watch it? It's been ages since we've had a movie night."
Movie nights with Mikey have always been one of my favorite past times, now replaced with locking myself in my room and getting wasted. Part of me desperately wants to agree to Mikey's proposal while the other part is screaming at me to blow him off and escape to my safe haven. That part is winning.
I mumble something under my breath about having to do homework and try sliding past Mikey into the house. He grabs me firmly by the shoulders and stops me dead in my tracks.
"Gee, when have you ever cared about homework? Plus, it's Friday."
I stay quiet, silently cursing myself for not coming up with a better excuse until Mikey cups my chin in his hand and forces me to look into his eyes. His usually joy-filled, child like, brown orbs are filled with sorrow and concern.
"We're pigging out and watching innocent victims get sucked dry by a blood thirsty vampire, and that's final."
The determination in his voice catches me off guard. Mikey is usually very timid and sure as hell never tells people what to do like he just did. Dumbfounded, I give up and simply nod once in agreement.
"Good, now let's go inside."
I notice the satisfied grin on Mikey's face before I step inside and close the door behind me. This should be an interesting night.
There you go!
I know this chapter was pretty slow paced but don't worry, our dear Frank will enter soon enough and then the real story line will kick in. Just wanted to use this chapter to set the mood and shiz. Tell me what you think and let me know if I should carry on with this story :)

How do I sign up to offer my books on the iBooks?
To sign up to offer your books on the iBooks, complete the application. You can choose between a Paid Books Account and a Free Books Account.
What is the difference between a Paid Books Account and a Free Books Account?
A Paid Books Account allows you to sell books and offer books for free on the iBooks. You will need to provide banking and tax information so you can receive payment.
A Free Books Account allows you to offer books for free on the iBooks. If you think you may later have books you would like to sell, you should create a Paid Books Account now, as existing Free Books Accounts can't be converted to Paid Book Accounts.
I already have an iTunes Connect account to offer another media type (apps, music, TV content, or movies). Can I use it for the iBooks?
If you currently have an iTunes Connect account to offer another media type, you cannot create a second iTunes Connect account with the same Apple ID. You'll need to set up a new Apple ID and use it to complete a separate book application.
Should I work directly with Apple or use an aggregator?
You can sign up to offer your books directly using iTunes Connect. However, if you are not sure how to create digital editions of your titles, or if you have other operational or financial needs, it may be best to work with an aggregator. Aggregators are experts in EPUB conversion, formatting, marketing, promotion, and price optimization. For a nominal charge, they can format your book to Apple's specifications so that it uploads correctly the first time, and they can distribute your book across multiple channels. For more information, see the iBooks Aggregators page on iTunes Connect.
Do I need an Apple ID to apply?
Yes, to apply you need an Apple ID that is set up for use on the iTunes Store with a valid credit card on file (for identity verification purposes). If you don't already have an Apple ID that you use on the iTunes Store, download iTunes and create one for free. The Apple ID you apply with will be the same for iTunes Connect once your account has been successfully set up and activated.
If you already have an iTunes Connect account set up for another media type (such as apps, music, TV content, or movies), you need to create a new Apple ID and use it for the book application. You cannot create another iTunes Connect account with the same Apple ID.
How much does it cost?
There are no fees associated with setting up an account. More details regarding sales terms are available during the sign-up process.
Do I need an ISBN?
An ISBN (International Standard Book Number) is not required but recommended for any book you are offering on the iBooks. An ISBN uniquely identifies the book and its current edition, and helps you to ensure that you are marketing the right book. The ISBN is also required for reporting your book's sales to the industry reporting agencies and charting organizations.
In the U.S., you can obtain an ISBN from Bowker. Outside the U.S., see the International ISBN Agency.
The print edition of my book already has an ISBN. Can I use it for the version that I'm submitting to the iBooks?
No. The International ISBN Agency requires different ISBNs for the print and digital editions of the same book.
Do I need a U.S. Tax ID?
If you sign up for a Free Books Account, no U.S. Tax ID is required. Free Books Accounts cannot be changed it into Paid Books Accounts. If you set up a Free Books Account and later decide you have books you'd like to sell, you will need to create a new Paid Books Account.
A valid U.S. Tax ID is only required if you sign up for a Paid Books Account to offer books on the iBooks. This also applies to publishers outside the U.S. You can request a U.S. Tax ID directly from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Make sure that you enter your U.S. Tax ID correctly to avoid delays in the account setup. If you have to file U.S. tax forms on iTunes Connect, you must use the same U.S. Tax ID.
Note that recently issued U.S. Tax IDs may not be part of the IRS database yet. Until the information is in the IRS database, we cannot validate your U.S. Tax ID.
I already have an iTunes Connect account for another media type (such as, apps, music, TV content, or movies) and an associated U.S. Tax ID. Can I use that U.S. Tax ID for the Paid Books Account application?
If you already have a legal entity name and U.S. Tax ID associated with another media type you are offering on iTunes or the App Store, you can use the same legal entity name and U.S. Tax ID for the Paid Books Account application. Note that you must set up a different Apple ID.
I get an error message that the first or last name I entered does not match the name on file for the Apple ID I entered. What do I do?
Reenter your Apple ID account information or go to appleid.apple.com and update the name associated with your Apple ID.
Who should apply for the iBooks on behalf of my company?
Someone with signature authority should apply to offer books on the iBooks. Only such an individual can accept the standard iBooks agreement on iTunes Connect.
I'm being prompted to enter my legal entity name and Tax ID type. What name should I use?
The legal entity name and Tax ID should match the associated U.S. Tax ID that you provide with your application. The legal entity name will also appear as the seller's name for all your books in the iBooks.
When entering in your information make sure you:
- Choose the correct U.S. Tax ID type.
- Enter the legal entity name exactly as it is registered with the IRS. If you recently applied for a U.S. Tax ID, you should use the legal entity name and U.S. Tax ID as it appears on the letter from the IRS:

5 Celebs Who Remarried Their Exes
Keeping the love alive in any relationship can be tough. Add to that reality TV shows, concert tours, red carpet movie premieres, and the other paparazzi-driven pressures of being a Hollywood A-lister and it gets even tougher.
But as we've seen before: Hollywood relationships don't always last ... and neither do break-ups!
Just this weekend, Lakers all-star Kobe Bryant and his wife Vanessa announced their decision to get back together, two years after she filed for divorce. "I am happy to say that Vanessa and I are moving on with our lives together as a family," Bryant wrote on his Facebook page. "When the show ends and the music stops, the journey is made beautiful by having that someone to share it with. Thank you all for your support and prayers!"
We're thinking, if Kobe Bryant and his wife can rekindle their romance, maybe their example (and the example set by these other celebrity couples) proves that second time's the charm!

"This is the first real, solid competition they've seen, and look what they've accomplished," said Patterson coach Shellie Freres of her four athletes. "They put in the hard work this year and really came through."
The group posted a 42.29-second runner-up finish to reach the 2012 CIF State Track and Field Championship, which will be Friday, June 1, and Saturday, June 2, at Buchanan High in Clovis.
In doing so, Delane, Carrie, Lawson and East set a personal-best record as a team. Their old mark of 42.77 was set eight days earlier, at the Division IV-V championship May 17 at Modesto Junior College.
"For this group to (record a personal-best mark) in a week's time really shows their potential," Freres said.
Twelve Tigers competed in 10 events in Elk Grove, facing some of the section's best athletes. Only the four seniors of the boys 4x100 relay team, however, qualified for a trip to the state meet.
The top three finishers from the Sac-Joaquin Section move on to the state meet, as do those who qualify as at-large entries.
The relay squad's top-notch performance wasn't the only bright spot for the boys' team Friday. Delane also earned a place in the boys 100-meter dash at the state championship.
Delane, a first alternate in the 100, finished ninth in his preliminary heat with a time of 11.22 and did not qualify to advance to the finals.
But his teammate Carrie — who ran the 100 with an eighth-place time of 11.18 — scratched, deferring the finals berth to Delane.
"I think (Carrie) saw something in his teammate and wanted to give him one more chance (to qualify for the state meet)," Freres said. "He knew how much that would mean to (Delane)."
Delane made the most of the opportunity, placing second in the finals of the 100 with a sprint of 11.20. He will compete in both the 100 and the relay this weekend.
"This group will be dealing with other guys who are on their level (at the state meet)," Freres said. "Can they handle that level of competition and rise to the occasion? Yes, I expect them to peak."

Douglas J. M. Duncan
In this thesis, I am concerned with Jonson's attitude toward theatricality in the world. His representation of a "centered self," especially in his poems, can be seen both as a part of the Renaissance concern with fashioning identity and as a protest against the theatrical role-playing it often caused. I am further interested in Jonson's conception of the nature of the theatre as a significant social activity. He employs the theatrical metaphor in Volpone, Epicoene, and The Alchemist in which clever author and actor-figures deceive less clever audience-figures who lack proper judgement. These characters reflect Jonson's awareness of his own engagement with his audience. The series of plays-within-the-play illustrate a theatre of deception and manipulation by which Jonson comes to measure both himself as a playwright and his art.
This study also attempts to come to terms with the interesting discrepancy between Jonson the moralist and Jonson the artist. There is a certain tension created in Jonsonian comedy when we consider that he infuses his theatrical tricksters with immense comic vigour. The audience's ability to pass judgement on the author and actor-figures' subversive actions is complicated since they perform so amusingly and with such brilliance.
As well, I trace the development of Jonson's thinking about the nature and function of comedy. With each successive play, I find that he subtly disguises his moral idealism in order to write successful comedy. A problem with this formula was that it tended to mask Jonson's identity as a morally purposeful writer. Increasingly, his comedies seemed to owe their success to a triumph of theatrical over moral values. Jonson remains a morally responsible dramatist who incorporates into his art the critical acceptance of the stage as a medium.

In your June issue, plumbing contractor Dave Yates makes a
comment I find very hard to believe (Q&A, 6/06). He
states, "Estimates of the number of deaths from potable
hot-water system bacterial infections range widely, but 10,000
per year is the middle ground."
The article does not state whether 10,000 per year is an
estimate for the United States or for the entire world, but
either way, this number seems unbelievably high to me. Please
elaborate if you have any more information on the
Gary Dresser
Dresser Homes
Dave Yates responds: Actually, I suspect that the
number is low, but others who look at the same data might
arrive at a different conclusion. My estimate is based mostly
on statistics concerning legionellosis, or Legionnaires'
disease (LD), a pneumonialike illness caused when water
droplets containing legionella bacteria are inhaled or
In the United States, fewer than 2,000 official cases of LD
are reported each year, but the national Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention estimates that between 8,000 and 18,000
Americans are infected with the disease annually. Many more
cases, CDC scientists say, are not reported or are
misdiagnosed. For example, some researchers believe that
anywhere from 2 percent to 15 percent of the 600,000 patients
who enter hospitals each year with community-acquired pneumonia
actually have LD.
Estimates of LD's mortality rates range from 5 percent to 30
percent. The elderly and people with weakened immune systems
are most vulnerable. So if there are 80,000 or 90,000 cases of
LD per year — and I've included patients misdiagnosed
with community-acquired pneumonia in that number —
there could be as many as 16,000 to 18,000 Americans dying of
the disease every year, based on a 20 percent mortality
How many of those cases are caused specifically by
hot-water-system bacteria? That's hard to say with certainty.
Legionella bacteria are quite common (in low culture numbers)
within both municipal and private potable water systems. Most
outbreaks have been traced to water systems, which can deliver
bacteria to such amplifiers as cooling towers, humidifiers, and
even supermarket vegetable misters. And research has shown that
a hot-water system set at 120°F (rather than
140°F) can provide the perfect environment for
legionella bacteria.
As a new subscriber, I noticed in my first issue a review of
the new Bosch impact driver (Toolbox, 5/06). The author begins,
"I like to think that I keep up with building trends and new
tools, so I was surprised to find a whole new category of power
tools that I was completely unaware of: cordless impact
Exactly where has this gentleman been plying his trade that
these little gems have somehow escaped his notice for at least
the last three years? Outer Mongolia? This is not the sort of
thing that instills confidence in the readership of your

Fletcher, N.C.
I want to set the record straight about the purpose of the
NAHB Residential Construction Performance Guidelines (In the
News, 5/06).
The publication enjoys great success in the marketplace, which
indicates that both homeowners and the industry find it very
useful. It was created by a panel of more than 300 builders and
remodelers with input from trade associations and insured
warranty providers, among others.
The guidelines are a tool for evaluating
residential-construction contract performance when there are
questions about what constitutes acceptable practice.
Contractors often refer to these guidelines in their contracts
to establish mutually agreed-upon criteria for resolving
warranty issues and to allow for less contentious dispute
The guidelines are an excellent resource, but they do not
supersede building codes and local regulations, nor do they
replace manufacturers' installation instructions.
Jerry Howard, CEO
Washington, D.C.
A couple of years ago, a group of like-minded remodeling
companies began to meet monthly to share our trials and
tribulations and to learn from each other.
Recent discussions turned to plumbing blockage on a large
project where the clients had moved out for a couple of months.
The group experience was that there was often a problem with
sewer backups after clients moved back into a house.
Our conjecture is that old debris in the pipes stayed soft
with constant use, but once the family moved out the gunk had
the opportunity to harden. It then caused problems when the
family resumed residence.
Several of us now routinely snake the drains before clients
move back in.

Half the games are pure fun, and can be found under the categories "Fun Arcade" and "Playground."

A new level of critical care
Freeman West is the first hospital in the area to offer a Transitional Care Unit (TCU), a 12-bed unit for patients who are still too ill for the medical floor but have progressed to the point where they no longer need the level of care provided in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
In the Freeman TCU, a team of three nurses cares for a group of 10-12 patients. With a nursing ratio of 1:4 and a nurse tech ratio of 1:6, registered nurses, nurse techs, and monitor techs provide staffing around the clock.
Every patient admitted to the TCU will have constant monitoring via wireless remote telemetry packs of heart rate/EKG, noninvasive blood pressure, and oxygen saturation.
By establishing the TCU, Freeman has opened up more beds to patients who need placement in the ICU.

On 15 February 2011, the new Denys Holland Lecture Theatre was formally opened by HRH The Princess Royal, Chancellor of the University of London. The lecture theatre had undergone a total refurbishment thanks to a major donation from Laws alumnus Vincent Cheung (LLB 1965), as a lasting memorial to his former professor, Denys Holland. The Princess was introduced to Denys Holland's family, Vincent Cheung and his family, as well as selected guests. This initial visit was followed by afternoon tea, speeches, a glittering evening reception and candlelit dinner attended by over 150 distinguished UCL Laws alumni and friends of the faculty.

To request a copy of the book (RRP £15.00 + £2.95 UK postage), click here.
In 1968, Professor Holland was made Dean of Students at UCL, during a time of massive student unrest. Not long afterwards, he went to Canada to teach at the University of Western Ontario with his new wife Winnie. He had planned to return to England on his retirement but died unexpectedly in Greece in 1984, at the age of 61. His legacy at UCL Laws lives on.
My intention was to create a portrait of Professor Holland based on my own technique of working with coloured paper strips. Hundreds of individually cut small paper strips are assembled like brush strokes one by one to create a collage of his face, his body and the background. I'm very interested in emphasising and visualising Denys Holland's outstanding personality with both clear shaped strips (which stand for his competence) and a richness of colours and exciting movements (which represent his versatility and brilliance).
Portraiture has a deep and venerable history. My portrait of Denys Holland stems from this tradition. In my painting I was interested in representing the memorable characteristics of his warm personality whilst acknowledging his distinguished intellectual achievements.
My approach to painting Professor Denys Holland's portrait is to celebrate and remember his life. I want to utilise symbolism to deliver a message of celebration and commemoration. Most of my studio practice and work is based on daydreams and dream subjects. My artistic approach toward symbols in portrait painting is related to dream interpretation and the symbolism applied in this portrait intends to commemorate and celebrate his life and his personality.
As a figurative painter my primary ambitions for the portrait of Denys Holland were centered around creating an accurate depiction of him, both physically as well as psychologically, as I perceived him through the pen portrait and biography. Denys seemed to me an inspiring person, one of those rare people that can take people beyond their ambitions. That characteristic vitality was what I wanted to apply to the portrait, coupled with the enigmatic smile so many knew him for.
This painting of Professor Holland tries to encapsulate his attractive and engaging personality alongside a sense of his working identity. In this final painting, I have attempted to respond to the affectionate memories of past students and colleagues and capture a sense of the spirit and charm of the youthful Professor Holland as recollected by them.
