4 'cloud' stocks poised to break out
Cloud computing is still part of the game.
One of the hottest sectors in the stock market so far this year has been technology. And investors have been particularly interested in "cloud computing."
Cloud computing is simply the process of providing software programs, data, and storage space remotely, through servers that are not operated by the customer.
The benefits for a business are evident from both a time and cost perspective. Businesses can get applications up more quickly and with less maintenance, enabling them to shift IT priorities to meet changing demand. The company also doesn't have to spend large sums of capital to purchase servers to host data.
Given the clear advantages, businesses have been rapidly adopting cloud-computing services. This, of course, has driven strong growth for companies that provide these services, causing investors to flock towards them.
Here are a few stocks that, from a technical perspective, look primed for a break-out:
EMC approaching levels not seen since dot-com era
Since EMC (EMC) reported upside fourth-quarter results on Jan. 24, the stock has been on a tear, up nearly 20%, and approaching the key $28.50 area. This price level acted as a resistance zone in May 2011, as well as in April last year. The stock seems to be on a collision course with $28.50 once again. If it can successfully breach that price zone, an upward extension could be in store, and the stock could be trading at its highest levels since the summer of 2011.
RAX just off all-time highs
Rackspace Hosting (RAX) is another stock that enjoyed a sizable pop after delivering strong fourth-quarter results. On Feb. 14, the day after it reported, the stock spiked to all-time highs on a huge surge in volume, closing at $55.45. Since then, however, it has cooled off a bit, and is now trading in the $52 to $53 area. This minor pull-back and accompanying sideways pattern can be viewed as a healthy consolidation movement. The stock also may be forming a support base around $52, which would limit downside risk from here.
Citrix Systems threatening key resistance area
Shares of Citrix Systems (CTXS) are trading just below $76, which represents a very important area of resistance for the stock. On three occasions over the past few months the stock has attempted to break through this level, but failed to confirm the move: Oct. 27, 2011; Nov. 16, 2011; Feb. 15, 2012. The general rule of thumb is, the more times a stock fails to break through a key level, the more significant the move to the upside will be when it finally happens. Because of this, CTXS is worth having on your radar.
CNQR soaring towards all-time highs
Another stock eyeing new all-time highs is Concur Technologies (CNQR), a provider of travel and expense services through its "Concur Connect" cloud-based program. Shares closed at all-time highs on Feb. 24, and have been essentially flat since then. Given its clear strength and proximity to all-time highs, another push upward seems likely.

Remakes: can't live with'em, can't murder everyone involved with'em. The silver lining of course is that modern horror's remake insanity has given rise to some epic podcast episodes. In previous classic packs we've combined some of the best and worst of recent horror remakes.
"Let Me In" Wunder-Director Matt Reeves has signed on to tackle the Frankenstein flick "This Dark Endeavor" based on the book with the same name. The film is just the latest in a long line of Frankenstein based films to be announced which means 2012 could very much be the year of the reanimated dead. Neck bolts are going to be soooo hot, I can just feel it.
The latest name to be added to the cast of "Dexter" season 6 is none other than Edward James Olmos. Colin Hanks and Mos Def have already been signed on and I can only assume that the addition of Olmos means that Dexter will be moving to a rough inner city and Olmos will play a teacher who shows him the powers of math. That's not racist, he did it in "Stand and Deliver".
So many people have been added to the cast of "Hunger Games" that I have officially forgotten what the movie is even about and now that Lenny Kravitz is on board I just want to punch it right in the face. I'm kidding, it's about two areas that send children to battle each other. I'm not kidding about the punching in the face though, Lenny Kravitz is a prick.
If you're like me then you spend most of your time as a bachelor paying strange women to break into your home, tie you up and torture you for two hours. Well good news fellow deviants, the movie "Kidnapped" is everything you've dreamt of and more and there's a new trailer out for the film to prove it. Of course I don't believe there's any sort of safe word involved in this, so that could get sketchy.
A North Carolina man is under arrest after he walked into his local Salvation Army, took off his pants and sat down on a couch with all his goodness hanging out for the world to see. Of course the obvious question here is how much is the couch discounted now that it's all covered in creepy old man juices.
Must be open season for showing your genitals in North Carolina because here's another guy who was so pissed off that his local Bojangles ran out of fried chicken that he decided to whip his bits out and show the woman working at the drive-thru window. I have no idea how that solves the chicken problem but I like his enthusiasm.
James Franco and Winona Ryder have signed on to star in "The Stare". In the flick Ryder will take on the role of a playwright who decide if the world is out to get her or if she's just cracking under the pressure of completing her next project. Franco will of course play a lovable stoner. Alright I don't know if that second part is true but come on, you have to assume that's what he'll be doing even if that really isn't his role.
I do believe I just found the topic for our next open week in the Podcast schedule. Rob Zombie has wrapped on a shoot in Vancouver for a commercial titled "The Torturer" for the laundry detergent brand Woolite. Weird to see a horror director taking on a commercial yes but throw in the fact that Zombie looks like a homeless man and the fact that it's for laundry detergent is enough to make blood run out of your nose. I'm sorry for doing that to you.
"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" finally has a director my friends and it's none other than Craig Gillespie who is currently working on the "Fright Night" remake. He also directed "Mr. Woodcock" which wasn't a very good movie but it made me giggle every time I heard the name Woodcock so that's got to count for something. Teehee... Woodcock.
"Let Me In" director Matt Reeves has decided to return to the vampire genre by signing on to direct "The Passage". Based on a book by Justin Cronin the story focuses on a group of terminally ill patients who find they can be saved by being bitten by a rare bat. But wait! There's some nasty side effects. Here's a hint, they kill people.
If you're a 48 year old man from Florida being accused of child abuse there's not many excuses you can use to get out of the charges. Of course you could always try the excuse that the kids are just jealous of your roller skating abilities and making the whole thing up. That won't work either but man it's pretty funny.
Wait this is illegal? Two Texas High School students are facing charges after decapitating baby chickens in the hopes of breaking their baseball teams losing streak. I originally wrote that they decapitated a bunch of chick's heads but that sounds a lot worse if you read it wrong. Or a lot better if you have trouble getting dates. I don't judge.
Be still my beating heart! Leonardo DiCaprio is confirmed to star in "The Devil in the White City", a new film based on H.H. Holmes, America's first serial killer. This will mark the first time I've ever had a man crush on a murderer. Mark this down.
Good news and bad news for fans of "The Walking Dead". The good news is the AMC series had a big ass premier with 5.3 million viewers. The bad news, that means instead of going out, getting drunk and going home with some random person you probably sat at home and watched TV. I've never been so proud and disappointed of you in my whole life.
I love every thing that comes out of Norway. Vikings, those weird ass black metal kids and that band that sang "Barbie Girl". Well add the new film "Inside a Whore", which has a new trailer online, to the list. I don't even know what it's about, I got so excited about the title I blacked out for a solid twenty minutes.
Still got "Let Me In" fever? Take a number kids! So here's a deleted clip from the film to keep your chops moist. Just to be clear though, if you're taking a number I think only 17 people went to see the movie so the line might not be too long. 17 people counting the five of us on the podcast. And no, we won't be in the line.
A Chinese boy recently fell 20 stories, landed on a car and lived. Impressive maybe for us Americans but have you seen the Chinese Circus? The guys some around like wild animals so honestly I think the kid could have gone 30 floors without an issue.
Before I explain this let me get this out of the way. I was nowhere near Maryland this past weekend. Alright, now here's a story about a man who was there and was very drunk, very much in a diaper and very much screaming profanity.
1974 – 78 die when the "Time Go-Go" Club in Seoul, South Korea burns down. Six of the victims jumped to their deaths from the seventh floor when a club official barred the doors after the fire started.
A decent remake of a foreign film? Listen and find out.
According to the twitterverse Kevin Pollak has signed on to the cast of Kevin Smith's "Red State". The film is about a group of kids who encounter a gang of crazed fundamentalists in middle America. The good news? No mention of Jay or Silent Bob in the cast list
Gore Verbinski, the guy who directed all the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies, still wants to make a "Bioshock" film and he's willing to murder to make it happen. Alright he probably won't go that far but he's super into making it happen. So into it he would kill! Sorry.
What's better than 6 new clips from "Let Me In"? How about 8! You guessed 7 didn't you? Of course if the movie sucks 0 would be the correct number. Either way there's a lot of math going on here and I need a nap.
Why wouldn't you do a 3D remake of the 1977 film "Kingdom of the Spiders"? Well alright there's really a long list of reasons but at this point who gives a crap. 3D is freakin awesome! Bring on the spiders and whatnot.
Magnet Releasing, which is a part of Magnolia Pictures has acquired the North American distribution rights to "Chawz". If you couldn't guess by the title the Korean film is about a giant crazed pig terrorizing a peaceful countryside. My mistake, there's no way you could have guessed what this movie is about.
Two new procedures have been approved by the FDA to help fight obesity. Both break down fat cells by cooling them to the point of no return and flushing them from your body. I look forward to the next release where it warms the fat into a creamy dip for chips and crackers.
1982 - Iran's former foreign minister, Sadegh Ghotbzadeh, was executed after he was convicted of plotting against the government
The guys behind both "Paranormal Activity" films have plans to create a show for the small screen in the near future. The show will be called "Paranormal Activities" and will feature real ghosts doing everyday fun tasks just like us livin' folk. Alright that's a lie, but they are working on a show.
Much to my surprise "Let Me In" has received a big old R rating from the MPAA. Apparently the movie's going to feature "strong bloody horror violence, language and a brief sexual situation". Brief sexual situation? So much for being toned down.
Are Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Scarlett Johansson attached to the big screen adaptation of "Breathers: A Zombie's Lament"? Sounds iffy but I've actually read the book and I feel it's important for my self esteem to report on movies that have to do with the dozen or so books I've read over the years. Me read pretty one day!
Liam Neeson is all fired up and ready to star in "The Grey". The film focuses is on a a group of pipeline workers who come in contact with a pack of wild wolves after their plane crashes in Alaska. Liam Neeson, he's what's for dinner.
Over 300 goats have been killed in the state of Puebla down in Mexico and shepherds are pissed! The prime suspect in the crime? Chupacabra! Holy crap I love Chupacabra and everything it does. I want one as a pet.
1939 - Britain and France declared war on Germany, two days after the Nazi invasion of Poland.
There's a new poster floating around from the upcoming "Let Me In" flick and good news, it's French and it's got just the right amount of blood in it! For those of you French speaking readers keeping track at home "Let me In" is Le Remake of the Swedish film Le "Let the Right One In" that I thought was Le Crap!
If you were in Vegas recently and weren't in a drug induced cloud of rage then you might of scored a peak at what David Tennant is going to look like as Peter Vincent in the upcoming "Fright Night" remake. Then again if you were in Vegas and were spending your time looking for horror movie posters then I don't think you deserve to be reading my news. I bid you good day sir... Good day sir!
Maybe I'm out of touch good people at Spike but I've been reading your nominees for the Ultimate Scream category for your 2010 Scream Awards and I'm a bit confused as to why something like "Avatar" is nominated. Does Ultimate Scream mean I should be screaming at my computer while reading your stupid ass nominee list? Cause ya got me!
Want to experience a producer and a director give each other high fives via the written word? You're in luck then! Eli Roth and Daniel Stamm recently sat down with Empire Magazine to discuss "The Last Exorcism", mashed potatoes and fashion. Spoiler! Eli Roth is a charming SOB.
Tasers are so hot right now! Just yesterday a student at Westlake Middle School in North Carolina felt the tasers wrath after she refused to stop choking a smaller boy in her school. If I had tased every girl who made me feel like crap in middle school 85% off the yearbook photos would of featured girls with smoldering hair.
1666 - The Great Fire of London broke out. It destroyed nearly 400 acres, including some 13,000 houses and the old St. Paul's Cathedral.
A new red band trailer for "Let Me In", the US remake of the Swedes "Let the Right One In" has found it's way online. At this point I've run out of clever ways to say how much I hated the original so let's just accept that we're American and we're better than everyone else. Let freedom ring.
Twenty years ago the newly released clip of Tiffany and Debbie Gibson having a cat fight for the Syfy flick "Mega Python vs. Gatoroid" would of made my Jams all kinds of tight. But I haven't worn Jams in close to twenty years so now it's just making my big boy shorts tight. See how that didn't turn out like you hoped it would?
After very much not being released back in March the Nic Cage film "Season of the Witch" is now seeing some re-shoots. Since they're going back and redoing some scenes why not toss in John Travolta and have him switch faces with Nic. Then have the two of them race around the country looking for secret treasures hidden in national landmarks. You're welcome Lionsgate, you can keep that one.
Hot news out of Comic-Con this past weekend that the much delayed film "All the Boys Love Mandy Lane" may be getting a release in the near future. By this point I'm sure most of the boys have moved on from Mandy to the skeezy girl down the street.
A Pittsburgh area man robbed a bank recently while wearing a woman's blond wig, fake breasts and clown pants. There's got to be some kind of sicko fetish site out there for this sort of crap and I for one plan on using most of today's work day to find it.
1940 - Bugs Bunny made his debut in the Warner Bros. animated cartoon "A Wild Hare."
Elizabeth Shue continues to mount her comeback using the horror genre as she signs on to "The House at the End of the Street" directed by Mark Tonderai.
The Matt Reeves remake of "Let Me In" is on the move as Overture Films sells off the marketing and distribution rights to Relativity Media. Despite Overture's semi successful releases with "Pandorum" and "The Crazies", the company will be closing its doors after three years.
Wes Craven is dipping his toes into the comic market as he partners with Liquid Comics for an undisclosed graphic novel project.
In a burst of heated nerd passion, two Comic Con attendees fought this past weekend over a seat in the conventions Hall H, resulting in one man stabbing the other in the eye with a pen. And here I thought a stabbing at comic con would likely be over a booth babe... guess I was wrong.
19 ravers die and over 340 of them were injured as Germany's annual Love Parade Rave turns into a stampede. What caused the stampede is yet unknown, but I'm guessing it wasn't "love".
1991 - Actor Paul Reubens (aka "Pee-wee Herman") is arrested in Sarasota, Florida for masturbating twice inside the South Trail XXX Cinema.
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

The rescue team in search of a Creech Air Force Base serviceman who jumped into Lake Mead for a swim in the Boulder Basin area Saturday afternoon has downgraded efforts to a search and rescue mission.
Lake Mead Park Rangers told FOX5 a man, woman and child were on a 21-foot boat on Saturday when the man, identified as 28-year-old Staff Sergeant Antonio Tucker, jumped into the lake.
High winds pushed the vessel further and further away. The remaining occupants were unable to operate the boat, so the female called 911.
Lake Mead Park Rangers, the United States Coast Guard and the Nevada Division of Wildlife conducted a six hour search for the serviceman near Boulder Basin on Saturday and continued search efforts on Sunday morning.
A Side Scan Sonar, which takes pictures underwater, as well as a patrol aircraft have been used in the search.
Tucker joined the Air Force in 2001 and came to Creech in 2008. He has deployed a total of five times in his career, including Afghanistan and undisclosed locations.

19 Action News has found new court papers in the case of serial killer Anthony Sowell.
One motion asks the state's high court to keep him alive longer. He's now set to die October 29.
Last year he was convicted of killing 11 women and keeping the bodies at his home in Cleveland. But his first appeal hasn't even been filed yet.
Also, Sowell has two new attorneys for his appeal. Two others just stepped off the case. They were afraid they wouldn't get paid enough since the court caps payments for lawyers and they expected to put in hundreds of hours for an appeal.

Even though most of you will not believe this, I graduated 20 years ago.
(Cough, cough.)
Yes, 20 years ago.
As in, 1990. The year of the Milli Vanilli scandal, the Simpsons and Seinfeld television debut, the freeing of Nelson Mandela and the start of the Persian Gulf War.
I turned 18. My parents bought me a brand new car, a white Dodge Shadow, that was then dubbed by my friends as "A Freak of Nature"…cause there is no such thing as a white shadow.
It was a time of tanning beds, tight rolled jeans, sequined prom dresses and Aqua Net hair spray.
Now, if there was one thing I was focused on in high school, it would be the whole hair situation. Lord knows I wasn't worried about my SAT's or college admission applications but the big hair thing…well, that was important. Hello?
And so the majority of my high school years were filled with hot rollers, a can of Aqua Net and a blow dryer…cause only maximum hair height could only be achieved with the aid of a dryer.
I never made senior superlatives, but 20 years later, they regretted that crap and bestowed upon me the accolade I should have recieved back in the day…."Biggest Hair."
Yes people, read it and weep!
I had the biggest hair in high school and it has been confirmed 20 years later by my peers.
To reward me for all my effort and their lack of acknowledgement then, they bestowed upon me the most fitting prize, a can of Aqua Net Hair Spray.
I know you be jealous.
Circa 1990:

OS X: Gray progress bar appears under Apple logo during startup
If you see a gray progress bar while your computer is starting up, OS X may be attempting to diagnose and resolve an issue with your startup drive.
When you see a progress bar at startup
If you didn't shut down your computer properly, or if OS X detects issues with your startup drive, you may see a progress bar the next time you start up your computer.
After OS X finishes repairing the startup disk, you should see the login screen, or your desktop like you normally would. If your computer isn't able to finish starting up, try starting from OS X Recovery and use Disk Utility to try to repair any disk issues. See the "Try Disk Utility" section of this article for instructions.
If Disk Utility finds issues it can't repair and you have a backup, you may need to erase the hard drive. After erasing and reinstalling OS X, restore your Time Machine backup or important files you backed up.
Other reasons you might see a progress bar
You may see a progress bar when restarting or waking your computer for other reasons:
- You may see a progress bar when waking your computer from sleep, this is a feature of Safe Sleep.
- If you've installed system updates, you may see a progress bar the first time your computer restarts after installation.
- If you've started up the computer in Safe Mode, OS X verifies your startup disk as part of the Safe Mode startup process. A progress bar appears until the disk check is complete.
Important: If you are unable to start up your computer, or the progress bar appears every time you restart (not wake) your Mac, you should back up your important data. This may indicate a drive issue that could potentially lead to data loss. Use Time Machine or another app to back up your system to a different disk, or manually copy your important files to an external drive using the Finder.

Monbento: A Stylish Way to Compartmentalize Your Lunch!
Lunchbox of the Day
When did lunchboxes get so stylish? (I mean, I know you used to rock that Care Bears lunchbox back in the first grade, and yes, it is hard to top that.) But in case you thought your best lunchbox days were behind you, you should know that there are quite a few sturdy, stylish boxes designed for adults on the go. In celebration of Lunch Week here on The Kitchn, we're highlighting a few of our favorites. Today's pick? The Monbento.
The compact Monbento lunchboxes are designed in France and consist of two airtight containers with an adjustable internal separator held together by a wide elastic strap. The total capacity of both containers is 1000ml, or about 4 cups.
I love the design of this box: it holds quite a bit of food, while keeping it all separate and compact. Plus, the matte rubber finish (in 6 different colors) is really fresh and modern.
• Made of PBT, PP, Silicone
• BPA-free
• Microwave and dishwasher safe
• Air-tight
• Includes two waterproof containers (about four cups total), a separator, one top lid, two intermediary lids, and one elastic strap.
• Measures 7.5"(h) x 3.5"(w) x 3.5"(h)
Buy It! Monbento Original Bento Box, $36 from Amazon. Also available in Green, Fuscia, Black, Blue, and Grey.

Thank you. These look amazing, and the elastic is a nice touch. Ironic that they're French designed, given the high quality of workplace/school canteens in France, and the fact that some workers still nip home for lunch (although it's not the norm, admittedly).
These are currently for sale on Fab.com! Was thinking of picking one up but they didn't include any photos of the inside - thanks for the more detailed info!
This is an incredibly common style of bento box, btw.
News because it's French made? The Japanese have thousands of versions of these, many more stylish than something as generic looking as this.
Hah! Care Bear lunch box. Something I was deprived of in Kindy :P gonna find me one soon :
Bento boxes are great but they take a bit of getting used to. Justbento.com (I have no connection to the site) has good advice on how to pack a nutritious bento lunch - and not just with asian food.
interesting....the picture definitely doesn't look like 4 cups! i have a bento at home, but unfortunately it doesnt get much use because i always think it wont carry enough food. perhaps i should measure it to alleviate my fears...
Good design. there are more bento boxes on Bento&co = http://en.bentoandco.com/
The Japanese ones are not dishwasher safe. And the "female" ones are also a bit small for a European girl's appetite, while the "male" ones look very, well, male. So I was quite happy when I found these.
Depends on what you buy. I've got half a dozen Japanese bentos; four of them are dishwasher safe.
I love my purple Monbento, it is a breeze to clean and doesn't leak! (and it looks cute too). The volume is ideal for my medium appetite, with normal tupperware containers I always used to pack too much food but this is perfect for me and I rarely have any leftovers to bring back home. $36 sounds a bit expensive though (but they are cheaper in France).
This one has good compartment and I can easily bring along anywhere. Though there are some days when I want to bring special bento lunch that I can share with, I would normally used my traditional bento box which I bought on here http://www.katachiware.com.au/bento-boxes.html I got the bamboo one which also has a lot of compartments.

What do these mummies, many decimated by grave robbers, tell us about life at that time?

The Milwaukee Film Festival enters its 5th year of hosting an absolute buffet of culture to the denizens of its eponymous metropolis (suck on that people of Golden Corral, Delaware!). Upwards of 200 internationally produced films spanning a century's worth of cinema will screen over the course of 15 days beginning this Thursday (9/26) and concluding on Thursday, October 10th.
Andy_BGH: When you think about the horror genre in film one of the primary stylistic components that gets discussed is how sound influences your audience. Music can be incredibly important in a horror film as it keys us in to a scare or its more subdued to build an overall tone. It can also be aggressively cheesy or overbearing. Nicholas Elert did you find the balancing act of creating mood but not overextending in your score for Dead Weight challenging or did it come naturally for you?
Andy_BGH: You guys have been running the festival/convention gauntlet for some time now. You were at Horror Hound Indianapolis a few weeks back. Bloody Good Horror did a review of "Dead Weight" along with Night of the Living Podcast. Then you just got back from CryptiCon in Minneapolis and now you're here at the Milwaukee Film Festival. What's next for you? Where is "Dead Weight" now?
What did I learn over the course of the Milwaukee Film Festival's Cinema Hooligante Program? Five things specifically:
1: I love living in a city that gives a shit about fucked up, unlovable, and/or unsung movies.
2: The creepiness of spiders is inversely proportionate to their size.
3: Those whacky Danes make me blush.
4: Inbred mutant plots are still (thankfully) going strong in quality movies.
5: Claymation is probably the only thing that can still bring me close to reintroducing my beer to the world. (Other than peeing. But then it's urine and not beer. Right? Right.)
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

"He talked about how his father had beaten him and his mother severely. They were like hostages in their own house. They were locked in," said the woman, who now lives in Florida.
A musician who often practiced at Castro's house said he was there last week and heard noises, "like banging on the wall." Ricky Sanchez said he asked Castro about it, and he blamed it on the dogs. He also said Castro — a bass guitarist in merengue and salsa bands — liked to play his music loud.

On his most recent visit, Sanchez said, a little girl came out from the kitchen and stared at him but didn't say anything. He said he also noticed there were four or five locks on the outside door.
"When I was about to leave, I tried to open the door. I couldn't even, because there were so many locks in there," he said.

We never turn down a ride in any Subaru vehicle. Although we have our favorites, all of them have something that piques our interest. Plus, all Subaru models have a similar corporate feel and share such wonderful core technologies as Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and SUBARU BOXER engines. A lot of that comes into play in how the Legacy 3.6R impresses its driver and passengers.
Driving for a Cause
In mid-January, three of us associated with Drive magazine joined a group that raises money for charity by way of a Subaru drive called 48HRS of Tristate (www.48hrs.info). This was the ninth annual tour, and its charity was the American Cancer Society. For us, the drive in the Legacy 3.6R on loan from Subaru of America, Inc. covered 1,068 miles, giving us ample opportunity to experience it.
We picked up the Legacy on January 14. The next day, we joined 48HRS of Tristate for breakfast at Subaru headquarters in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.

Jeri Smith-Ready
Teen Fiction SMITH-R
Summary: Love ties them together. Death can't tear them apart. Best. Birthday. Ever. At least, it was supposed to be. With Logan's band playing a critical gig and Aura's plans for an intimate after-party, Aura knows it will be the most memorable night of her boyfriend's life. She never thought it would be his last. Logan's sudden death leaves Aura devastated. He's gone. Well, sort of. Like everyone born after the Shift, Aura can see and hear ghosts. This mysterious ability has always been annoying, and Aura had wanted nothing more than to figure out why the Shift happened so she can undo it. But not with Logan's violet-hued spirit still hanging around. Because dead Logan is almost as real as ever. Almost . It doesn't help that Aura's new friend Zachary is so understanding-and so very alive. His support means more to Aura than she cares to admit. As Aura's relationships with the dead and the living grow ever complicated, so do her feelings for Logan and Zachary. Each holds a piece of Aura's heart...and clues to the secret of the Shift.

Apple Introduces Us To Their Tiger
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Software
Showing off the latest OS X update, Steve Jobs talked about a new search technology called "Spotlight". In a nutshell, using the Spotlight technology, you can search your entire PC for whatever you need in seconds. According to Apple, "Spotlight can find email messages, calendars and contacts along with documents, movies, images - any kind of file - all at once." Think of it as being similar to searching for music in iTunes.
The other major portion of the Tiger update is "Dashboard". The Dashboard functions as a widget organizer which can be accessed at any time using a function key.
This isn't all. There are about 200 new additions to the Mac OS in the new version 10.4. Interestingly enough, all the new technologies that Apple is showcasing now are what Microsoft plans on releasing in another two years on the Windows front. You can be sure Mr. Gates was listening. Let's just hope he got the message. If you are going to come into the game late, you better innovate.

Our recent short stay in Waikiki was made comfortable and memorable by staying at this condo rental. It was wonderful to be able to stay right on the beach. I would have liked to seen a few more condiments and such provided in the kitchen. The bed was a nice size, but a bit uncomfortable. Otherwise a nice stay.

The pillows are terrible, you need to replace them. The lamp on the side closest to bathroom, constantly flickers. There are no night tables so awkward for wanting to put things down. The futon sofa kept coming off its hinge. So, there were definately glitches but overall we enjoyed our stay and had a great vacation. The Tv problem was fixed very quickly and i appreciated that!

A 4-year-old boy who was hit by a motorcycle Saturday afternoon is still in critical condition at Gillette Children's Hospital Sunday.
Tyrell Baymon's family said on Sunday that the little boy has yet to wake up since being struck while on his way to his birthday party in St. Paul. He has a skull fracture and will have an MRI on Sunday afternoon, according to the family.
Baymon's mother said they were outside the family's SUV on LaFond Avenue when her 4-year-old son was hit. He was holding his mother's hand at the time of the crash.
Baymon and his family were on their way to nearby Como Park to celebrate the boy's birthday.
Witnesses said the motorcyclist was driving aggressively on Lafond Avenue before striking Baymon. The driver did not stop, St. Paul Police said.
"It seems like he speeded up, and I was like, 'Oh my God.' And then he just came and hit -- hit the baby," said Andre Scroggins, Baymon's uncle. "Tyrell, he went flying and he went like 20 feet and then he was under the van. We were trying to grab him and he was unconscious."
According to police, the little boy was thrown six or seven feet into the air after being hit by the royal-blue sport motorcycle. Baymon then landed on the asphalt.
"This is a situation that I think really hits everybody just super close to home and to the heart no matter geography, anything. This is a little boy who, it's my understanding talking to folks, he wasn't playing in the street, he was in the street holding his mom's hand getting ready to celebrate his forth birthday," said Howie Padilla, St. Paul Police public information officer.
Police are asking for the public's help in locating the driver of the sports bike. Neighbors say they regularly see the motorcycle driving in the neighborhood. The sports motorcycle is royal-blue in color and likely has fresh frontal damage. Police believe the driver is a male in his 20s.
St. Paul Police are looking into leads, but they have yet to make an arrest, Padilla said Sunday.
The St. Paul Police Department urges anyone with information about the crash to contact their non-emergency line at 651-291-1111.

Sapphic stanza
The Sapphic stanza, named after Sappho, is an Aeolic verse form spanning four lines (more properly three, in the poetry of Sappho and Alcaeus, where there is no word-end before the final Adonean).
The form is two hendecasyllabic verses, and a third verse beginning the same way and continuing with five additional syllables (given as the stanza's fourth verse in ancient and modern editions, and known as the Adonic or adonean line).
Using "-" for a long syllable, "u" for a short and "x" for an "anceps" (or free syllable):
- u - x - u u - u - - - u - x - u u - u - - - u - x - u u - u - - - u u - u
While Sappho used several metrical forms for her poetry, she is most famous for the Sapphic stanza. Her poems in this meter (collected in Book I of the ancient edition) ran to 330 stanzas, a significant part of her complete works (and of her surviving poetry: fragments 1-42). It is not clear if she created it or if it was already part of the Aeolic tradition; according to Marius Victorinus (Ars grammatica 6.161 Keil), it was invented by Alcaeus but then used more frequently by, and so more strongly associated with, Sappho.
Use by other poets[edit]
Sappho's contemporary and countryman, Alcaeus of Mytilene, also used the Sapphic stanza.
A few centuries later, the Roman poet Catullus admired Sappho's work and used the Sapphic meter in two poems, Catullus 11 and Catullus 51. The latter is a rough translation of Sappho 31. Sapphics were also used by Horace in several of his Odes, including Ode 1.22:
- Integer uitae scelerisque purus
- non eget Mauris iaculis neque arcu
- nec uenenatis grauida sagittis,
- Fusce, pharetra...
- (The man who is upright in life and free
- of wickedness, he needs no Moorish spears
- nor bow nor quiver heavy with envenomed
- arrows, Fuscus...)
The Sapphic stanza was imitated in English by Algernon Charles Swinburne in a poem he simply called Sapphics:
- So the goddess fled from her place, with awful
- Sound of feet and thunder of wings around her;
- While behind a clamour of singing women
- Severed the twilight.
Thomas Hardy chose to open his first verse collection Wessex Poems and other verses 1898 with "The Temporary the All," a poem in Sapphics, perhaps as a declaration of his skill and as an encapsulation of his personal experience.
- Change and chancefulness in my flowering youthtime,
- Set me sun by sun near to one unchosen;
- Wrought us fellowly, and despite divergence,
- Friends interblent us.
Rudyard Kipling wrote a fine tribute to William Shakespeare in Sapphics called "The Craftsman", beginning:
- Once, after long-drawn revel at The Mermaid,
- He to the overbearing Boanerges
- Jonson, uttered (if half of it were liquor
- Blessed be the vintage!)
Allen Ginsberg also experimented with the form:
- Red cheeked boyfriends tenderly kiss me sweet mouthed
- under Boulder coverlets winter springtime
- hug me naked laughing & telling girl friends
- gossip til autumn
Isaac Watts penned "The Day of Judgment" subtitled An Ode Attempted in English Sapphic (here are the third and fourth stanzas):
- Such shall the noise be and the wild disorder,
- (If things eternal may be like these earthly)
- Such the dire terror, when the great Archangel
- Shakes the creation,
- Tears the strong pillars of the vault of heaven,
- Breaks up old marble, the repose of princes;
- See the graves open, and the bones arising,
- Flames all around 'em!
Australian Classicist and poet John Lee wrote a Sapphic stanza about the impossibility of writing Sapphic stanzas in English:
- Making Sapphics isn't that easy, shackling
- Our reluctant language with trochees. Since you
- First begot them, songstress of Lesbos, keep them.
- I'll never write them.
(the poem exists also in a Latin version).
The Australian poet John Tranter has also written a poem ("Writing in the Manner of Sappho") in two Sapphic stanzas about the difficulty of writing Sapphics in English:
- Writing Sapphics well is a tricky business.
- Lines begin and end with a pair of trochees;
- in between them dozes a dactyl, rhythm
- rising and falling,
- like a drunk asleep at a party. Ancient
- Greek — the language seemed to be made for Sapphics,
- not a worry; anyone used to English
- finds it a bastard.
