Local showbiz ain't as boring as it seems – at least not on upcoming Ch8 drama series, The Dream Makers
Text: Joanna Goh

For those of you who have always wondered what it is like to be a struggling actress, or how your local TV station functions – you're in for a treat. This June, things are going to get real catty in showbiz (a fictional showbiz, that is) in the upcoming Ch8 production, TheDream Makers.
Think of it as Korea's On Air or the currently-airing Drama King, and expect plenty of meta references as some of these actors play exaggerated versions of their real-life personalities.
As real-to-reel take on the life of producers, directors, and actors from Caldecott Hill, the drama will let audiences watch Rui En (Fang Tong Lin) and Jeanette Aw (Zhao Fei Er) duke it out for real and for the first time.
After much talk and debate over the rivalry between the now-defunct "seven princesses", the duo will play hot favourite actresses vying to become the TV station's number one star. Zoe Tay (Zhou Wei Yun) and Chen Liping (Yao Zhu Kang Li) will also feature as sparring executive producers from opposite camps.
So are things really that aggressive and catty in local showbiz?
Well, not really – at least not by MediaCorp Ah Jie's standards. In her interview with xinmsn at the drama's imaging session yesterday, Zoe called TheDream Makers "a dramatised and magnified take on local showbiz".
"The story plot and characters are fictitious and purely done for the sake of entertaining TV viewers," she quipped with a chuckle.
Zoe's sentiments are echoed by Rui En, who will play the former's subordinate in the show. "Let me assure you, the real TV station is not that exciting. (Laughs) They might be writing on a scenario that took place 20 years ago. It's more normal now and less exciting."
Apart from fleshing out power struggles within the TV industry, the drama will have its fair share of complicated love triangles between its leads too. Chen Hanwei (Yu Fan) and Zoe will reunite – after their collaboration in Devotion – to play soulmates and Qi Yuwu (Jason) will play a rising star director who gets to romance the TV station's two hottest actresses.
Intrigued yet? Check out xinmsn's gallery to find out more about the characters in the show!
The Dream Makers debuts June 24, weekdays, Ch8 at 9pm.

Saturday, Feb. 6.
MIAMI (BP)--God's redemptive power in his once-troubled life was Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick's theme at the annual Super Bowl Breakfast Saturday morning.
Speaking publicly for the first time as an adult about his faith in Jesus Christ, Vick said God was again the first priority in his life. He also shared for the first time about the role former Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy played in his restoration with God.
"I feel I'm in the back seat now and God is in the front," Vick told Baptist Press in a post-breakfast interview. "Five months ago I was worried with what was going to happen (with the NFL), but now I'm more at peace. God has taken it over. I don't have to worry about being dynamic. God is in control of that."
Vick spoke standing beside Dungy before 1,100 fans, in his first-ever retelling of the role faith played in his life at the maximum security prison in Leavenworth, Kansas.
"I wanted a chance to redeem myself," he said. "Pre-incarceration it was all about me. When I got to prison, I realized I couldn't do it anymore. The one thing I could rely on was my faith in God."
While he has a peace from God in his life and doesn't fear his future on the field or off, Vick said he is still haunted by his deeds of his previous life.
"The toughest thing was being away from my kids (ages 7, 5 and 2). I missed 18 months of their life that I will never get back.
"They still have questions [about] why I went away for so long and those are questions they shouldn't have to ask."
Dungy, a longtime supporter of the annual breakfast sponsored by Athletes in Action and Campus Crusade for Christ, said organizers of this year's banquet asked him if Vick would be willing to share his faith publically one day before Super Bowl XLIV.
"I thought it was a good venue for Michael and he agreed. People know about my faith, but they needed to hear about Michael's. I thought he did a very good job."
Vick said he became a Christian in high school in Virginia and began reading his Bible, but the more success he achieved on the football field, the less he needed God.
"I was so self-centered, I forgot about the Lord," he admitted.
After going to jail for bankrolling a dog fighting ring, and losing almost every material thing in his life, Vick said he realized how far he had fallen.
"I got back to my roots. The only thing I could do in prison was fall back on God. I wanted to do things right, that I didn't do the first time."
Dungy came into Vick's life in his final months in the federal prison -- Vick's lawyer was from the same hometown as Dungy's wife. Dungy visited Vick in Leavenworth and began to help him put his life back together and to help him restore his walk with God.
They still keep in weekly contact and Dungy helped Vick get a backup job with the Eagles this season.
Vick admitted his first year out of prison and back in the NFL was a struggle.
"I thought the transition would be easy, but it was a hard for me. I did things I never thought I would do, like studying and working by myself. I stayed close to my faith, constant in prayer and close to Tony's calls and texts."
While the Eagles hold his NFL rights for another year, his football future, once unlimited, is far from certain. Vick said he's determined to leave his life in God's hands and leave the results up to Him.
"The main thing is I don't want to disappoint God," he said.
"I don't want to disappoint my family, Tony or Roger (NFL commissioner Goddell)," he added. "God has blessed with a second chance that is something I will value forever. I don't want to let Him down."
After Vick's emotional appearance, former Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner accepted the AIA Bart Starr Award, annually given to the player who exhibits character and leadership on and off the field.
"These awards are simply a platform to give glory to God in my life," Warner said.
He explained his own personal transformation in his life, shared the plan of salvation and invited people to accept Jesus Christ into their life for the first time.
Among the people at the breakfast were Indianapolis head coach Jim Caldwell and several members of his team, who briefly talked about the importance of faith in their lives.

(WNFL) - It was not that long ago when Jared Allen was Aaron Rodgers' worst nightmare. The Minnesota Vikings' sack leader has had some timely hits on Green Bay's quarterback over the past six years -- but not during last night's Packer victory at the Metrodome. Packers' rookie left tackle David Bakhtiari kept Allen in check. Not only did Allen fail to sack Rodgers, he was not recorded with any tackles on the Sunday Night stage. Allen leads Minnesota with four sacks this year -- and Packers' coach Mike McCarthy said Bakhtiari just keeps getting better and better. McCarthy said the rookie has been consistent quote, "right out of the gate." Meanwhile, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports says Allen could be dealt away by the N-F-L trade deadline, which is tomorrow afternoon. Glazer said Vikings' officials have talked about dealing Allen -- and the Vikes would need at least a third round draft choice. That's what the team would receive if the 31-year-old Allen leaves as a free agent. He's making 14-point-three million dollars this year.(Thanks for help Minnesota News Network)

We had not been on an Ocean Cruise before and took this trip with some trepidation.
The ship was what we expected and we were happy with our cabin.
During the Cruise we stopped at either a beach or village every morning and again in the afternoon.
We were never board and the activities were always well managed and arranged.
One of the many highlights was snorkelling with the sharks on a reef, never though we would do that.
However the best thing about the cruise was the Crew, we normally can pick out some outstanding people on our holidays but it would be unfair to name anyone in the Crew specifically They were all GREAT.
From the Tender Driver to The Captain, The Bar Attendant to the Chief Engineer, the Waitress to The Chef.
Not one person in the Crew was not exceptional.
As a couple who was not sure if we would like being on a Cruise, We are already looking at booking another.
Well done Blue Lagoon Cruises For employing exception people.

My 2nd pair i really loved my first pair they lasted seven years! My new pair are just as comfy and I hope they last as long! size is good as expected! Good build quality good service! Can't knock Merrell I have a pair from every range!
Sized as Expected
The wrap slam is a every day wear so versatile! They deliver a eight out of ten in everything from walking to climbing to gym!
These little beauties slipped on a treat right off the shelf. Absolutely the most comfortable shoe of its' kind and...talk about survivability! I've had these seven years; I alternate two pairs, wear them almost every day and live in a very rugged part of the country; beaches and rock-scrabbling, off-road cycling you name it they have seen it all!!!!!
Sized as Expected
Every day and high impact activity.
Having first bought a pair of these several years ago [testament to the product that they continue to exist] I have subsequently bought no other make/model of outdoor/active shoe. Light, comfortable, hard wearing, breathable - everything I asked of them for my feet, they continue to deliver. I hope my size is back in stock soon1
Sized as Expected
I have a pair of these from 2005 and are still amazingly comfortable and impeccable. I use them for walking and hiking in the city, country and mountain and the only problem that i have was a small spot of rubber that started to detach. A little bit of super glue and it´s ok again. I have another pair, the leather model from 2006/2007 and still impeccable. How can i clean them so they have the original aspect? I use a piece of tissue and water...
Hi There, Thanks for the review. We always recommend Nikwax for the cleaning of our footwear www.nikwax.com - Regards - The Merrell Team
Sized as Expected
Walking and hiking. City, country and mountain.
looking to replace my current pair of Merrell Chameleons which I've had for 3 years and will buy the same again. Comfy and able to be worn for just about any outdoor pursuit, I can recommend these shoes to anyone. As reviewers have said, these shoes are 1st class.
Sized as Expected
work, dog walking, cycling, and t' pub.

Inside Media: "Drama and Journalism: Stories Under Occupation"
Listen to Audio:
Watch video:
Guests: George Ibrahim and Jim Hoagland
By Rich Foster, programs and education director
Do media reporting on conflict lose sight of the human factor?
George Ibrahim, general director of the Al-Kasaba Theatre, thinks news stories too often reduce victims to statistics.
"We became suddenly [the] number of dead people, number of injured people, of demolished houses. This is inhuman. People begin dealing with us mathematically like numbers, he said."
Ibrahim, a Palestinian Christian, brought his play "Alive from Palestine: Stories Under the Occupation" to the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts on Feb. 27, 2009, as part of the Arabesque Festival. Ibrahim described the play as an attempt to share his perspective through a series of monologues based on events that actually occurred. The setting includes six actors emerging from piles of rumpled newspapers to tell their stories.
"Ninety-five percent [of the events] happened during the last Intifada in Palestine," Ibrahim said.
The play raises questions about the capabilities and limitations of journalistic and dramatic storytelling. Ibrahim and Jim Hoagland, the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist for the The Washington Post who covered the Middle East, discussed how the distinctly different forms of storytelling can influence public perceptions and how one's point of view is influenced by the prism through which they are informed.
Ibrahim maintained that the West Bank and Gaza, where the stories are set, don't get coverage that adequately represents the Palestinian point of view, because Israeldominates the media in the region. He maintains that American and European media fail to provide a perspective that is distinguishable from the reporting in the Israeli media.
Hoagland disagreed.
"What you try to do [as a reporter] is to get as close as you can to the subject, to the event that you are covering, and to be fair in reporting it."
There is a danger, he said, of becoming too sensational, and reporters must take a "sober" approach in conveying the human drama when trying to explain complicated geopolitical issues to an audience that may not have a depth of understanding.
Hoagland added that The Washington Post and other major Western media are too independent to be influenced in their reporting by whatever media may dominate in a specific region or conflict — a point in which Hoagland and Ibrahim agreed to disagree.
"Inside Media" is produced by the Newseum and is open to all visitors. Seating is on a space-available basis.

Brooklyn To West's Tables: Salvaged Wood, Serious Skills
I've been following the adventures of Amelie & Ariele of Brooklyn To West as they drove across the country from Brooklyn to California to build a restaurant out of reclaimed and salvaged materials. They amazed me with their know-how and can-do spirit, but when they started cranking out these stunning tables I almost fell over...
You can read all about their travel and building adventures at Brooklyn to West, but for now we'll just check out the tables.
The 3rd photo above is actually the very first one they built ("Number one of at least twenty-one others"- !!) and they cheerfully describe the painstaking construction. I've especially enjoy reading about their learning process and progress as they make each table, from the joy of a nail gun, what type of sealant is best, the triumph of limiting waste, and the reluctant-but-excited acknowledgement that straight lines are faster to make than diagonal. Keep the tables coming, girls!

These are beautiful. I love the nail holes.
I love their blog! I'm totally game for taking a road trip up from LA to eat at their restaurant when it opens. Glad to see this blog getting a shoutout on AT.
really beautiful and I love that they are reusing materials.
Oh my. While I wish them EVERY success with their restaurant, I'd be perfectly happy if they ended up in California just selling their amazing tables and other reclaimed furniture!!
Thanks Apartment Therapy! This means so much to us! We've been regular readers for years so, just wow.
Amelie and Ariele
wow, those are beautiful !!
I just moved to Monterey from Brooklyn this summer and can't tell anyone enough about how amazing this place is! I first noticed it when walking by and saw the decor! I thought to myself ... And squealed to my husband that it looked like something we would find back in the city! I miss NYC and this place reminds me so much of it! The food is incredible as well. Do not miss the tiramisu if you go. The best I have ever had!

See and share Beautiful Nature Photos and amazing photos of interesting places
Favour'd by Heav'n are those, ordain'd to taste
The bliss supreme that kindles fancy's fire;
Whose magic fingers sweep the muses' lyre,
In varying cadence, eloquently chaste!
Well may the mind, with tuneful numbers grac'd,
To Fame's immortal attributes aspire,
Above the treach'rous spells of low desire,
That wound the sense, by vulgar joys debas'd.
For thou, blest POESY! with godlike pow'rs
To calm the miseries of man wert giv'n;
When passion rends, and hopeless love devours,
By mem'ry goaded, and by frenzy driv'n,
'Tis thine to guide him 'midst Elysian bow'rs,
And shew his fainting soul,--a glimpse of Heav'n.

At the halfway point of the regular season, no one thought the Red Sox would be where they're at.
Now 81 games in, the Red Sox are tied for the most wins in baseball at 48, have the best record in the American League and show no signs of slowing down. Consistency is the word to describe this team from top to bottom. Even dealing with injuries to key players, the Red Sox continue to find ways to win and have been a really fun team to watch through the first three months.
How about John Lackey a few nights ago? 12 strikeouts in a pretty dominating performance. He's been the pitcher so far this year that Boston was hoping they signed when they gave him that big contract. With the news that Clay Buchholz may be out longer than expected dealing with bursitis in his right shoulder and Lester not looking right in the late innings last night, the resurgence of Lackey is that more important.
Obviously the Red Sox need their stars like Ortiz and Pedrioa to perform but it's how players like Daniel Nava and Jose Iglesias are playing that shows why the Red Sox are where they are. It also seems that when one play is going through a rough spot, another steps up. Take the closer position. Andrew Bailey clearly had problems and now Uehara steps in and steps up. In the outfield Victorino gets hurt and Mike Carp steps in and steps up.
At the halfway point, this formula for the Red Sox has worked. We'll see if it can hold up.

We have just returned from our AMAZING cruise on the beautiful Norwegian Spirit.
We embarked in the stunning city of Venice. Getting to the ship from the airport was actually quite easy. We got an ATVO bus to the pizzalle Roma (6, I think) then from there we got the people mover to the port. This was one euro and you really couldn't miss where to get it. At the port there was a NCL rep present to direct you to a complimentary shuttle bus (or you could just walk 10 minutes to the ship). Our inside cabin was on a low floor (4493) but was in a fantastic location for getting on and off the ship. It was really quiet we were actually surprised at how spacious it was with a grand sized bathroom equipped with a hair dryer. Mark our cabin attendant was brilliant.
The ship itself is beautiful. We have cruised with bigger ships before such as celebrity solstice but this ship seemed more intimate and very classy with mainly Asian decor. The promenade wraps around the whole ship which I thought was a nice touch. The gym is small but very well equipped and the pool and 4 hot tubs were never too crowded. In fact, we had a completely fully booked ship but it never seemed crowded. We always got sun loungers and seats in the restaurant.
No on to the really important stuff! The food! In short the food is fantastic. So fantastic that we never felt the need to go to any of the speciality dinning venues. Ncl must be really taking note of customer reviews because the food in Raffles buffet changed daily and always had so much to choose from. In the main dinning rooms Windows and Garden the right hand side of the menue had classics such as steak, pasta etc which never changed but the left hand side had about 4 different choices that changed daily. Also our meals were always hot. By the way, the Ncl signature cheesecake is to die for! There is a 24 hour cafe that makes food to order such as buffulo wings (yum, yum), burgers, panini's etc. Ncl cookies are absolutely gorgeous also.
Dress code was very mixed Raffles was casual, garden was in the middle and in windows most people tended to be more dressed up but you could really wear what you like. We personally LOVED the freestyle dinning as it really gave us the freedom to do what we wanted rather than planning our entire day around our meals.
The entertainment was good. the juggler/comedian was very funny and the magic show was very good. Also the end of cruise show was the best we've ever seen and elements was very good. Overall though the on-board entertainers were not as polished when compared with previous cruises we have done. But as I said we did enjoy the shows.
The staff are amazing. They seem so relaxed and genuinely happy. They joke with each other and still offer fantastic service. The washy, washy staff are so funny and always made us smile. Also Gloria is a great singer and should be on stage! Captain Lars is very funny and I personally lover Officer Armando (head of hotel operations) he is incredibly funny.
We had the best cruise we could have had and we would sail with NCL again in a heartbeat!!!

The Conceptual Art Star Tackles Weighty Issues With Carrara Marble in VB70
The ever-provocative Vanessa Beecroft exposes an intimate view of her latest performance in this series of exclusive photographs shot by the artist herself. Complementing her Carrara marble renditions of the female form, the three-hour event at Milan's Lia Rumma Gallery, entitled VB70, saw a select group of muses delicately balanced on uncut stone plinths, naked except for their vibrantly colored body paint. Following an open casting call, the Italian-born Beecroft and her close friend and Vogue Italia Editor-in-Chief Franca Sozzani selected several models to take part and even invited the artist's sister-in-law and Hollywood neighbor to bare all. Deceptive in their seemingly simple concepts, Beecroft's installations typically involve groups of nude models and question representations of the body, beauty and identity. Her ideological challenges have struck a chord in fashion and celebrity circles, and resulted in collaborations with Louis Vuitton, Maison Martin Margiela and Kanye West. Beecroft spoke to NOWNESS about corporeal assumptions.
You opened up the casting to the public. How did you go about the selection process with Franca Sozzani? What were you looking for?
Women that looked remote like sculptures or mystical figures. An example would be [models like] Kristen McMenamy, Alek Wek, Karen Elson. They look unreal, as if they belong to another world.
You ended up with a wide range of body types.
I didn't want the women to all be young. The women had to be human in a sculptural sense. Curves, age and particular features were contemplated, as they are in portraits of people, not as the way they are in magazines.
This exhibition continues your recent foray into Cararra marble. Are you making a comment through using this material?
The connection with Carrara happened by chance. Someone asked me to go to their studio and try the material. I realized it as a performance, casting women and creating fragments with marbles not traditionally used to represent the figure, like reds, blues, greens, onyx, and marbles with a lot of texture and veins, contrary to the pure stone historically used in sculpture. I wanted to play with this rhetorical material, as if I was doing a collage regardless of gravity and costs.
What is the relationship between the body paint and the colored marble?
I wanted to transform the women into marbles, or into something between women and marbles. They looked like aliens—I related to that. In totality, it was like a camouflage of real and unreal; mimetic pieces made by real and unreal people. As in my other performances, there is the theme of the physical presence of live women, but with the presence of the stones, the ephemeral essence of the performance was reified. The women at once lost their immediate sense of being alive when camouflaged amongst the stones. The stones are colorful but hard and dead.
Your work has consistently touched on ideas current within fashion. What interests you about that conversation?
Maybe the fact that fashion tries to correct the look of people when they are dressed—to conceptualize it. I like when fashion destabilizes society in a subtle way, using tradition to break it, like YSL, Margiela, Helmut Lang.

Spotlight on Student Volunteers
Purdue students share their EBV volunteer experiences working with the veterans:
"The program is truly a two-way street when it comes to who is doing the learning and teaching; it goes both ways. I came away from the experience with some new role models, friends and a better understanding of social entrepreneurship." - Purdue Junior Lawson Roth
Lawson Roth, from Evansville, Indiana is a rising junior in the Krannert School. He is majoring in Management and Accounting with the Certificate in Entrepreneurship. In the fall he will start his first co-op rotation with NASA.
Photo: Lawson Roth, left, is shown with Ryan Ottosen, Purdue EBV 2012 Graduate. Click on the photo to view the rest of Lawson's story.
"EBV has taken the central focus of my life at Purdue. It has reconfirmed my beliefs and has given me numerous avenues to follow my philosophy. It has made me more focused on fulfilling one of my dreams - to open a school in my country. EBV has given me a platform to work on my ideas and at the same time, make a difference, even a small one, in the lives of the people who gave up theirs to protect us. I feel truly blessed and proud to be a part of this noble initiative." – Purdue MBA Student Zenita Subba
Zenita Subba, from Bhutan, will graduate in May, 2013 with a Krannert MBA. She has concentrations in Human Resources and Strategy. She is doing her graduate assistantship with the EBV program.

Detour routes traffic through downtown
In an effort to have motorists utilize services in Blaine while southbound traffic is being detoured at the Peace Arch border crossing, a large sign was created informing motorists that they do not have to immediately re-enter I-5 at the D Street onramp.
The city of Blaine worked with U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) and Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) to create the sign, which points out that motorists can take an alternate route along Peace Portal Drive entering I-5 at the 274 onramp.
"This is an opportunity for motorists who normally wouldn't get off the freeway here, to come into our town," said Debbie Harger, Blaine community development specialist "We are looking at this construction as an advantage not a disadvantage."
The city started working with GSA and WSDOT in 2005 when they first learned of the plans for construction.
Blaine public works director Steve Banham said that the city, in collaboration with business owners, wanted to figure out some way to encourage motorists to drive through town, and that GSA was eager to accommodate with the creation of the sign.

what words could possibly describe this one? these : usually something is considered random when it happens out of the blue , i.e. someone appearing unexpectedly or an event occurring when you least expect it. random is the best thing to ever happen in the history of the world.
While going on a random walk throughout the neighborhood, the two friends randomly saw them and preceeded to make a random dance throughout the street.

Metro Blue Line riders take a hit for Silver service
Blue Line riders who were already smarting from the introduction of this summer's "Rush Plus" change to Metrorail service will be facing even worse service in Northern Virginia when the Silver Line starts running next year. Blue Line trains will operate every 12 minutes during rush periods, according to a new report slated to be presented to Metro's Board of Directors on Thursday. Under Rush Plus, which began in June, the longest wait during peak periods is 12 minutes, but some trains are still scheduled to arrive every six minutes. Previously, all trains were about six minutes apart during the morning and evening peaks. Metro says it will be running more eight-car trains to help ease crowding on what riders now dub the Blue Crush. - Kytja Weir

RAY HUMPHRIES GAYLE FROERER PAT OLSEN MONTY SHUPE CARR LOFGREEN i V:.- M : sr It 3 President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Business Manager - sir V . p VOLUME XVIII OGDEN, UTAH, MAY 4, 1955 NUMBER 13 - : Now Hear This! (EDITOR'S NOTE: Now that the season for debate competition has come to an end, we thought the student body would be interested to hear the two sides of the question that has brought our debaters such outstanding recognition.) Resolved: That the United States should extend diplomatic recognition to the Communist Government of China. PRO By Therald Todd In my opinion, one of the most serious handicaps to our foreign policy in the past has been the reading of moral implications into situations where they do not apply. The present situation with regard to China provides a good example of just how this can injure our position. Although the .;. ; '. ,; ' -I ernment has been . i . A1'.!- m control of China since 1949, the United States has refused to extend recognition. The main reasons given for this non-recognition policy have been that we owe our support to Chiang Kai-shek's government and that we must show our disapproval of the Chinese Communists. The chief error in this attitude is that it fails to be consistent with the historical basis of international relations. Traditionally, nations have recognized in order to establish means for communication. The whole international community is based on the assumption that nations can settle differences through discussion rather than having to resort to war. By refusing to recognize, the United States cuts off any real possibility of ever being able to establish a means for official diplomatic negotiation. Negotiations True, in the past, negotiations with the Communists haven't been all we have hoped for, but in some instances we have been able to get results in our dealings with them. The release of William Oatis, the Georgeson brothers, John Noble and others, and the lifting of the Berlin blockade provide examples of successful dealings. I feel the chance for communication that would be provided by recognition would be worth the offering. Our failure to provide a chance to communicate with the communists is causing serious consequences upon our relations with our allies. The Communist propagandist's favorite line is that the United States is a warmonger, that she is too anxious to start a war before she tries peaceful means for settlement of problems. Gets Results It would seem from the attitude of some of our allies that some of this propaganda is getting results. The British, some report, think we are "trigger happy", too anxious (Continued on Page 3, Column 1) CON By Marilyn Arnold Rather than say that in my opinion we should not extend recognition to the Red Chinese, be cause it is not n e c e ssarily my opinion, I will attempt to demonstrate certain arguments which may be the reasons why the United States has not extended r e c o g nition to the Red regime. In view of the United States' stand on Formo sa, one of supporting and protecting Chiang from Communist aggression, it appears that the Communists would never accept U. S. recognition of them. Chou En Lai has made it very clear that he would not deal with any country which continued to have dealings with the Nationalist government; yet because of the military strategic importance of Formosa, the U. S. cannot afford to let that government fall into enemy hands. It all boils down to this: the only kind of recognition the U. S. could extend would be a "two-China" recognition, and that is the kind of recognition the Communists would not accept. Most Important In considering this question, it is important that we realize what kind of a government it is that we wish to deal with. The Communist Chinese, it appears, have not shown themselves as ones who wish to be respected and peaceful members of the international community. They have broken nearly all the Korean truce agreements, violated rules on the care of POWs, maltreated American and United Nations prisoners, held American persons illegally, and shouted abroad their love for the Russian bloc and their hatred for the Western democracies. It appears then that the belligerent attitude of the Communists would prevent any real negotiations because their basic ideology is of such a hostile nature. High Hopes Great Britain recognized the Comunist Government of China, hoping to negotiate with them. In doing so. she ignored all moral implications of recognition, and she met with bitter consequences. Since her recognition of the Communist regime, there have been 26 incidents of violation against her flag by the Chinese. The Commu-(Continued on Page 3 Column 1) WC Offers 126 Credit Hours Toward BS Degree By Marianne Johns Students may continue at Weber College after graduation and receive credit toward a bachelor's degree, according to Clarisse H. Hall, college registrar. Of the 186 credit hours required to gain the degree a minimum of 60 hours must be completed in upper division courses at a senior institution. This means that if all prerequisites are met and if the schedule allows, a student may transfer from a junior college 126 quarter hours credit. In general, however, the schedule and the prerequisites do not make it possible for the student to transfer this much. Complete Schedule Mrs. Hall recommended that any student who desires to continue at Weber College after graduation plan a complete upper division schedule or program with the senior institution concerned so that all graduation requirements for a bachelor's degree will be completed. She pointed out that courses in summer school can be applied toward a degree in any major field while the extra quarters may not. Some pre-medical and engineering students find it to their advantage to take Physics 4, 5 and 6 and math and chemistry courses during the summer sessions at Weber. Contact School Mrs. Hall emphasized the idea that the senior institution should be contacted so that a student knows what his specific program will be after he leaves Weber. Should he desire to stay at Weber until he completes 126 hours, he must be sure to contact the senior institution of his choice. Lectures Termed Successful as 1954-55 Series Ends The last of the series of lectures was held Monday, April 25th at Ogden High School and featured Margaret Bourke-White, famous Life Magazine correspondent, who talked on her experiences. Mrs. White was the first woman photographer to be accredited to the United States Armed Forces during the war. The lectures this year, which have been very popular with college students and Ogden citizens, have featured one of the most outstanding arrays of speakers ever heard in one season. Dr. Franz J. Polgar, "Miracles of the Mind"; Herbert J. Philbrick, W-C Selects fcatierat IPrexy President, Subordinates Chosen In First Election on New Campus By Larry Tomlinson Nelson Wright will step down at the Presidents Assembly, tentatively scheduled for June 2, and turn the Weber reins over to Ray Humphreys, new college prexy. Other school officers elected in the April 21 finals are Gayle Froerer, vice president; Pat Olsen, secretary; Monty Shupe, treasurer, and Carr Lofgreen, business manager. This foursome replaces in the order cited Sharon Slater, Lu Wanna Harris, Dale Gustaveson, and Ray Cummings. Thank Students Speaking for this year's student leaders, Nelson Wright wants to thank all the students for then-support and help in overcoming the problems created by the controversial "split campus." "As outgoing officers, we would like to appeal to you students to get behind the new officers in planning their activities for next year," said the soft-speaking president.Ray, Monty, Carr and Nelson will journey to San Diego for the annual PSPA (Pacific Student Presidents Association) convention May 11-14, sponsored by San Diego State College. Answers Queries In answer to a query about any Ten Take Honors In Poetry Meet Ten Weber students, their instructor and mascot, took ten superior ratings at the USAC poetry reading festival, April 23. Those who participated were required to be in two rounds. Ten to fifteen people competed in each section. One outstanding reader was chosen in each section. Mark Wood was the outstanding reader in both rounds and also rated superior in both. He was the only entrant in the competition to accomplish such a feat. Colleen Miller, Sharon Wallace and Joan Van Wagoner were chosen outstanding reader in one round and rated superior in their sections. Also receiving superior ratings were Therald Todd, Darwin Van De Graff, Sally Jeppson, Marianne Wood, Carolyn Clark, and Warren Rutherford. They were coached by Mr. Allred and Mr. Redford. Mr. Redford and Ann Knight accompanied them to the festival. Their unusual record was aided by Miss Knight's presence, Mr. Redford said. "The Man Who Led 3 Lives"; Meredith and Rini Willson, "The Long and Short of It"; Dr. Ralph Lapp, "Atomic Science Remaking the World"; Karl Robinson, "Brazil"; Olin S. Pettingill, Jr., "In the Hills of Gold"; Francis P. Line, "The Road to Grandeur"; and Mrs. White were the main attractions of the 1954-55 series. drastic changes planned for this fall, Ray skilfully dodged the issue, replying, "Right now we are seriously considering freshmen to help on committees next year." As the selection of student body leaders draws to a close, freshmen should be thinking about possible candidates for sophomore class officers. The nominating assembly for 1955-56 class leaders will be held on the tenth of next month. The apex of this year's elections came during the April 19th campaign assembly when Gary Peterson, portraying schmaltz columnist Walter Winchell, quipped, "The chieftain of the Zulu cannibals passed his friend in the jungle today." 6 Weber College Debaters Bring New Honors, Plans Weber College came home from the national Phi Rho Pi meet at Denver University recently with two third places, a fourth and a seventh place. Marilyn Arnold and Therald Todd tied for fourth place and Kent Berg and Boyd Anderson tied for seventh. Sally Jeppson won third place in interpretive reading and Mark Wood talked his way into third place extempore honors. Re-elected E. Carl Green was re-elected national vice president at the Denver meet. At the same meeting it was decided that Weber would be host to the 1956 National Phi Rho Pi tournament. During the 1954-55 year, Weber debate teams have placed third in two tournaments and second in two. Other Honors Marilyn and Therald placed second in the Stockton tournament in men's division and Marianne Johns and Ethel Zaugg tied for second in the women's division. Marilyn and Therald placed third in the Rocky Mountain speech meetin Denver in March. Gary Peterson and Mark Wood finished in a tie for third place at the Occidental College tournament early in the year. The national Phi Rho Pi is the top junior college tournament in the western states and, according to Mr. Monson, shows indications of being even larger next year. The Weber College group was accompanied to Denver by Mr. Monson, Mr. Green and Mr. Allred. BULLETIN A.M.S. has scheduled a dance for May 13, at which time next year's officers will be announced, for further information see the Signpost of the same date.

Winfield, Ill., November 27, 2012 – Cadence Health, the health system created through the merger of Central DuPage Health and Delnor Community Health System, today announced that Dan Kinsella has been named the system's Chief Information Officer (CIO) and Executive Vice President. Mr. Kinsella, an industry veteran with more than 30 years of health care experience, replaced Dave Printz, who retired earlier this year.
"Dan is an industry leader who possesses the critical skills needed to lead our future information technology endeavors," said Mike Vivoda, President and Chief Executive Officer, Cadence Health. "His strong knowledge and years of health care information technology experience will be a valuable asset to our system as information technology continues to play an increasingly important role in patient safety, clinical quality and care coordination."
Mr. Kinsella, 56, most recently served as Senior Vice President at Optum Insight, a division of United Healthcare, where he led technology consulting within the Accountable Care Services practice, including a role as Solution Architect and Program Manager for an alpha site ACO client in the Southwest.
Prior to Optum Insight, Mr. Kinsella was the National Practice Leader for Healthcare Consulting at The Revere Group, where he developed and managed the company's largest industry vertical practice, facilitating health care CIO groups and leading engagements for hospitals, health systems and health insurance companies. Mr. Kinsella has also held leadership roles at Cap Gemini, Ernst & Young and Andersen Consulting.
"Information technology is transforming health care in a variety of ways to better support patient care," said Dan Kinsella, Chief Information Officer, Cadence Health. "These are exciting times for our industry as innovations in information technology allow patients to be more actively involved in their care."
Mr. Kinsella earned his Bachelor's degree in Biology & Psychology from Northwestern University and a Master's in Management in Health Management & Finance from the J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University.
Cadence Health was formed in March 2011 as a result of the merger between Central DuPage Health System based in Winfield, Ill., and Delnor Community Health System based in Geneva, Ill. Cadence Health is a locally based, locally governed health system focused on delivering excellent health care to the more than 1 million patients in Chicago's western suburbs. For five consecutive years (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010), Central DuPage Hospital (CDH) was selected by Thomson Reuters as one of the "100 Top Hospitals in the U.S.," and currently maintains affiliations with Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago for pediatric specialty care and Cleveland Clinic for cardiac surgery, adult medical oncology, and cardiology services. Delnor Hospital recently received accreditation by the American College of Surgeon's National Accreditation Program of Breast Centers for the Delnor Center for Breast Health.

Rated 2 out of 5�by New Swimmer Not the size or quality I thought Picture is deceptive and sizes run small. The mesh material is just a fabric over a cotton brief they are only connected in certian areas letting the material hang to lose and unevenly.

With the NHL's Research and Development camp a week behind us, I have come to realize that what I feel is the most pressing issue in the NHL was not even addressed.
Once again, it is time for me to comment about overtime games being worth three points while regulation games are only worth two points. This time I have a little different take on the subject as a result of what was done at last weeks camp.
One of the more popular experiments at the R&D camp was the addition of five minutes of three on three hockey after the initial five minutes of four on four play in order to avoid as many games being decided with a shootout. There was also a piece where the goalies would change ends for overtime in order to bring the "long change" into play which historically has led to more scoring in the second period of games. This move would also be done to cut down the number of shoot out games.
While I like both of these suggestions, I feel that changing the points system to three points for a regulation win and a 2/1 split of points in overtime and shootouts would bring more of what fans desire into the game than anything else and it would require no on-ice changes. As it currently stands, when a game is tied past the 10:00 mark of the third period, you see many teams act like a turtle and suck back into a defensive minded, low risk scheme, in order to get to overtime and take home at least a point for evening's effort.
Nashville Predators coach Barry Trotz is a brilliant tactician and is the master of shutting down the opponent, not only at the end of the game, but also in overtime because he likes his chances in the shootout with Pekka Rinne in net. Conversely, if all games were worth three points, and a team was playing a conference rival, a completely different mindset would exist at the same 10:00 minute mark.
With a chance to put an extra three points on a lead over an opponent or the chance to make up three points in the standings, you would see the equivalent of playoff hockey as the clock wound down in a tie game. This would kill two birds with the same stone. You would have fewer games decided in a shootout and you would see the addition of playoff style hockey throughout the season.
While I really like this idea, I don't see it being adopted simply because the league likes the fact that the current system rewards mediocre teams and allows them to stay in the hunt for a playoff slot further into the season. Commissioner Gary Bettman has repeated this reasoning each time he has been askedin recent years.
This week's change in the tie-breaker rules to not include shootout wins was merely an appeasement to folks that think as I do and is a clear signal that nothing of substance will change in the point totals any time in the near future. Unfortunately, the NHL is missing an opportunity to bring more action into the game and have fewer games end up being decided in a one-on-one skills competition.

One step is to get a secured credit card. With a secured card, you make a deposit in a savings account and this amount is used as your credit limit, less any fees required. The Public Savings Bank Secured Card does have a one-time setup fee of $79, but there isn't a monthly maintenance fee. There's a fairly low 11.24 percent APR, which is good for a secured card. This issuer reports your credit history to all three major credit bureaus. So you also have a chance to rebuild a good credit history.
Once you obtain a credit card, whether it's secured or unsecured, your next step is to pay your bills on time and be a diligent cardholder. If you maintain good financial behavior over time, your score should start to climb.

The Alabama Education Association filed a lawsuit late Monday targeting the state's controversial new school flexibility and tax credit law just has the organization promised it would.
The suit was filed on March 18, 2013 in Montgomery County Circuit Court and is assigned to Judge Eugene Reese.
This is the second suit filed by AEA regarding the legislation. Its first attempt to block what is officially known as the Alabama Accountability Act resulted in a temporary restraining order, but the Alabama Supreme Court tossed out that order on the grounds of Separation of Powers between the legislative and judicial branches.
The High Court did not address the merits of the bill, only that a judge cannot interfere with the rules of the Legislature and its passage of legislation.
[DOCUMENT: Read the School Flex Law (.pdf)]
Once the restraining order keeping HB 84 from being enacted was lifted, Alabama Governor Robert Bentley signed the measure into law.
AEA officials are again targeting the legislation with the argument that it was passed through multiple violations of the state's Open Meetings Act.
[DOCUMENT: AEA Lawsuit 3/18 (.pdf)]
The Republican supermajority of the Alabama Legislature forced the legislation through both chambers on Feb. 28 amid outrage from Democrats.
Republicans say the legislation, which will allow tax credits to parents who want to move their children from failing schools to successful public or private schools, will make the state's education system stronger.
Which schools are "Failing Schools"?
[DOCUMENT: Unofficial Failing Schools List (.pdf)]This list is from the GOP Caucus, not the State Dept. of Education.
Democrats say the legislation was a "bait-and-switch" that will funnel money away from the public schools that need it the most and will give that public money to private schools.
The AEA is asking that the law be invalidated.
