Blood Relations
The Israeli-Palestinian Blood Donation Project started when in 2011 members of the Israeli-Palestinian Bereaved Families for Peace came together to donate blood to one another.
The innovative and inspiring project is a response to the Impossible Brief to break the vicious cycle of hate, revenge and murder between Israeli and Palestinian families.
Central message of Blood Relations is the question: Could you hurt someone who has your blood running through their veins? You can go online and support the project spreading their key message.

I have 2 databases with the same schema, except 1 has DDL triggers and one does not. I have no "Ignore trigger" options checked but SQLCompare is not showing me (that I can see) the DDL triggers differences.
Please advise?

It looks to be in the new "Checking for identical databases" operation.
I say that judging from what the comparison output looks like now versus what it looked like before the new version of SQL Compare got deployed to our servers.

While Madigosky leads Widener students through experiential
learning exercises in Costa Rica, John Sacharok '80 and Frank Baldassarre '95,
two Widener alumni, are leading the way in the production of organic,
sustainable coffee from Golden Valley Farms Coffee Roasters, their coffee-roasting facility
in West Chester, Pennsylvania. Sacharok and Baldassarre, already importing the
coffee beans from Las Lajas, offered to produce WU Brew for Widener and
donate a portion from every bag sold. Proceeds from WU Brew help to pay farmers
a living wage and encourages them to produce coffee in an
environmentally-friendly manner.
A rather unique combination of brains, brawn, and beans, WU Brew
is an innovative effort in leadership that brings two metropolitan communities
together, in a spirit of mutual cooperation, to engage in the sustainable
agricultural movement on a global scale. Buy a Bag of WUBrew!
WU Brew: Earth Friendly Coffee from Cultivation to Cup "Your Choices Have an Impact"
Purchasing WU Brew coffee supports Widener University student
service projects that help produce organic, sustainable coffee grown in Las
Lajas, Costa Rica. Widener students and faculty work closely with rural Costa
Rican farmers to ensure that coffee grows organically under
the canopy of shade trees, preserving and restoring natural habitats.
Students in environmental science courses travel to Costa Rica to conduct research on a variety of farming practices and assess the quality of coffee grown under rigorous laboratory conditions. This work documents how the procedures employed in the field produce agricultural products that are of superior quality with a rich taste from sun-dried, honey-processed beans.
Students provide a valuable service to the farmers – not only by
conducting research – but also assisting in the actual coffee harvesting
process. This partnership has a positive effect on coffee production and helps students become more globally
aware of the impact of their purchasing
and consumption decisions.
In addition, proceeds from WU Brew help to pay the farmers a
generous living wage and encourages them to produce coffee in an
environmentally friendly manner. The rate paid to farmers, in fact,
exceeds the amount required for fair trade certifications. This helps to
maintain a pristine environment where a greater degree of plants and animals
can flourish, unlike that of a conventional coffee farm.

Laptop computers donated to schoolsJanuary 09,2013SUNDERLAND Google donated 36 laptop computers to the Bennington-Rutland Supervisory Union recently, according to Superintendent Dan French.
The computers, called Chromebooks because they run using Googles Chrome operating system, will expand the districts initiative of having one computer for every student.
In a statement French thanked Google.
Our partnership with Google over the last six years has had a tremendous impact on our educational delivery systems and has greatly enhanced our ability to personalize learning for students, he said.
A press release said the laptops are good for schools because they are easy to maintain and manage.
The Bennington-Rutland Supervisory Union includes Currier, Danby, Dorset, Manchester, Mettawee, Mount Tabor, Pawlet, Rupert and Sunderland and includes the newly-formed Mountain Towns Regional Education District.MORE IN This Just InAn alleged fight outside a bar between Red Sox and Yankees fans has led to the suspension of two...

LA CROSSE, Wis. (WSAU) - A former chairman of the La Crosse County GOP has announced his intention to run for Secretary of State.
Julian Bradley joins Waupun City Councilman Rohn Bishop on the ticket for the Republican nomination. The announcement was made at the Radisson Hotel in La Crosse Saturday. No announcement has been made on the intentions of the incumbent Doug La Follette.
Bradley stepped down from the La Crosse County GOP in November. He stepped into the position when then-chair Bill Feehan ran for State Senate in a losing bid.

Hanging in my office is the vote tally for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, sent to me by Senator Edward Kennedy soon after September 10, 1996. That day, I had watched from the Senate gallery as a bill to protect gay and lesbian workers from on-the-job discrimination based on their sexual orientation failed to pass by one vote.
Since that time, we have seen extraordinary movement forward on the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) — in public opinion and in the law of the land. We can judge how much on Thursday, when the Senate is again due to vote on a bill that prohibits job discrimination because of sexual orientation and gender identity.
Recent victories in the march toward equality have been historic. This summer, for example, the Supreme Court struck down key segments of the Defense of Marriage Act, which I had seen voted into law 85-14 just hours before ENDA failed. In 2010, Congress passed the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell, which President Barack Obama signed.
Yet our work is far from over. Protecting America's LGBT veterans and current military members is an essential measure of the progress of our nation — and one that federal law has ignored for too long. Thursday in the Senate, we have the opportunity to make meaningful progress by passing ENDA.
Most Americans — 90 percent in fact – believe that this non-discrimination act is already the law. Majorities in every state support it. Democrats, Independents and Republicans alike back ENDA by strong majorities. So it was in the months before the Don't Ask Don't Tell was repealed — 78 percent of Americans supported that move toward equality and fairness.

Muckross Abbey
From the surface, Newgrange is a somewhat disappointing flattened, grass-covered mound, about 80m in diameter and 13m high. Underneath, however, lies the finest Stone Age passage tomb in Ireland and one of the most remarkable prehistoric sites in Europe. It dates from around 3200 BC, predating the great pyramids of Egypt by some six centuries.
Many a wild night has been had within the cobbled precincts of Temple Bar, Dublin's most visited neighbourhood, a maze of streets and alleys sandwiched between Dame St and the Liffey, running from Trinity College to Christ Church Cathedral.
Whatever reputation Dublin may have as a repository of top-class art is in large part due to the collection at this magnificent gallery, home to Impressionist masterpieces, the best of modern Irish work from 1950 onward and - the highlight - the actual studio of one of the 20th century's most famous artists, Francis Bacon Founded in 1908, the gallery's home since 1933 is the.
If you're looking for a turreted castle straight out of central casting you'll be disappointed; the stronghold of British power in Ireland for 700 years is principally an 18th-century creation that is more hotch-potch palace than medieval castle.
With highlights like the 'Teasing Shed', the Irish National Stud, about 3km south of town, is the big attraction in the locality – horse-mad Queen Elizabeth II dropped in during her historic 2011 visit. The stud was founded by Colonel Hall Walker (of Johnnie Walker whiskey fame) in 1900.
Its hilltop location and eye-catching flying buttresses make this the most photogenic by far of Dublin's three cathedrals as well as one of the capital's most recognisable symbols It was founded in 1030 on what was then the southern edge of Dublin's Viking settlement.
St Stephen's Green may win the popularity contest, but elegant Merrion Sq snubs its nose at such easy praise and remains the most prestigious of Dublin's squares.
Denis Maginni, the exuberant, flamboyant dance instructor and 'confirmed bachelor' immortalised by James Joyce in Ulysses, taught the finer points of dance out of this beautifully restored Georgian house, now a centre devoted to promoting and preserving the Joycean heritage Although Jimmy probably never set foot in the house, he lived in the 'hood for a time, went to a local.
Near the shores of Lough Lene, the emerald-green Fore Valley is a superb place to explore by bicycle or on foot. In AD 630, St Fechin founded a monastery just outside the village of Fore. There's nothing left of this early settlement, but three later buildings in the valley are closely associated with 'seven wonders' said to have occurred here.
One of the finest examples of Georgian architecture open to the public are these two townhouses, founded by Cardinal Newman as the Catholic University of Ireland in 1865.
Crowing ravens lend an eerie atmosphere to Monasterboice, an intriguing monastic site containing a cemetery, two ancient church ruins, one of the finest and tallest round towers in Ireland, and two of the best high crosses Down a leafy lane in sweeping farmland, the original monastic settlement here is said to have been founded in the 5th or 6th century by St Buithe, a follow.
Smithfield's biggest draw is devoted to uisce beatha (ish- kuh ba-ha, 'the water of life'). The whowhatnow? It's whiskey, which doesn't quite bestow life, but, if drunk enough, will undoubtedly take it away.
It was only right that the newly arrived Normans would name a church after their patron saint Audoen (the 7th-century bishop of Rouen, aka Ouen), but they didn't quite figure on two virtually adjacent churches bearing his name, just west of Christ Church Cathedral.
The Rock of Cashel is one of Ireland's most spectacular archaeological sites. The 'Rock' is a prominent green hill, banded with limestone outcrops. It rises from a grassy plain on the edge of the town and bristles with ancient fortifications – the word 'cashel' is an anglicised version of the Irish word caiseal, meaning 'fortress'.
Dublin's most important Catholic church is not quite the showcase you'd expect. It's in the wrong place for starters.

Suspected shoplifter uses stun gun to intimidate Greenfield store manager
A store manager called police after an unruly female customer attempted to shock him with a stun gun around 12:30 p.m. Oct. 22.
According to Greenfield police:
The manager at Factory Card & Party Outlet, 5058 S. 74th St., told police he confronted a female customer because he believed she was shoplifting. When he asked to see her purse the woman refused and became loud and disorderly.
The manager then asked the woman to leave the store. As he began following her to make sure she left the store, the woman took out an electric weapon - possibly a stun gun - and sparked it at the manager. The suspect then exited the store and got into a red or maroon four-door Buick driven by an unknown female. The vehicle was last seen driving southbound on 74th Street toward Southridge Mall.
The suspect is described as a heavy-set female and the driver of the vehicle is described as a shorter female, approximately 5-feet, 3-inches tall and carrying a silver purse.» Read Full Article

Preps football photos of the week: Sept. 26
Big conference games were a big part of high school football as the season continued in Week 6 on Sept. 26.
Now Newspapers and Lake Country Publications compiled the best photos shared on social media featuring teams from our coverage area, predominantly in Milwaukee and Waukesha counties.
Here's the best sights and sounds from Week 6.
East emerges from late-game flurry against Hale
Brookfield East nipped West Allis Hale, 17-13, on Friday, in a game where the momentum started swinging back and forth in the final minutes.
The win left the Spartans with a 3-1 record in the Greater Metro Conference while the Huskies fell to 1-3 despite playing well against elite competition. A win by the Spartans next week against Wauwatosa East at homecoming would clinch a playoff spot for the Spartans, something coach Tom Swittel pointed out to his team in the postgame huddle.
East was winning, 14-0, Friday night when Hale put together a 15-play, 81-yard drive behind quarterback Joe Jo Breznik, which ended when running back Andre Siggers scored from a yard out and Jake Carr kicked the point after with 11:21 left in the game, cutting the lead to 14-7.
Running back Joe Werner rushed seven times for 30 yards on the drive, while Brezik completed passes of 3, 15, 7 and 2 yards. With the momentum on the Huskies corner, it was East's turn to try and take it back.
So East quarterback T.C. Swittel took the Spartans 81 yards on 19 plays, which ended when Connor Allen drilled a 22 yard field goal for a 17-7 advantage with 2:34 on the clock.» Read Full Article
West Allis-West Milwaukee schools get $3.1 million grant
West Allis — The West Allis-West Milwaukee School District has received a $3.1 million federal grant to help create a safer and better learning environment.
The district is one of only 71 school districts across the nation to receive School Climate Transformation grants through the U.S. Department of Education's "Now Is The Time" program.
Over a five-year period, the West Allis-West Milwaukee District will use the grant to enhance and expand its Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program, an evidence-based program that emphasizes and rewards good behavior and teaches the right way to handle conflicts.
The grant will also support enhancements to the district's anti-bullying and violence prevention efforts.
School officials said they hope the grant will result in improved academic achievement, better student behavior and a better learning climate.» Read Full Article

The next step is for a court hearing Sept. 30 to consider approval of the existing offer to purchase the Southwest Y in Greenfield, Tri-County in Menomonee Falls and West Suburban in Wauwatosa by the YMCA of Central Waukesha County for $7 million in cash at closing, plus a possible $1 million more based on earnings in the next two years.
At that time the court will also consider the offer by the Kettle Moraine YMCA to purchase the Feith Family Ozaukee YMCA in Saukville for $2 million cash at closing.
"The process has reaffirmed that the offers from the Waukesha and Kettle Moraine Y's represent the fair value of these properties," said Julie Tolan, president and CEO of the YMCA of Metropolitan Milwaukee.» Read Full Article

Financing nailed down for hotel/banquet facility in West Allis
West Allis — West Allis officials have announced the closing of financing for construction of a $13.3 million hotel/banquet center at 82nd Street and Greenfield Avenue.
Groundbreaking is expected soon on a 101-room Hampton Inn & Suites with a 9,200 square-foot banquet facility with seating for 300 guests. The project is anticipated to be completed by July 2015.
The closing represents a significant milestone in the efforts of West Allis to attract quality development and a kmown hospitality provider to the community, officials said in a news release announcing the financing.
"It's been a community goal to bring a hotel and banquet facility to West Allis," Mayor Dan Devine said in the release. "The financial package was very innovative and it took a great deal of team effort to bring this project to the finish line."
The project is expected to create more than 50 new full-time jobs, Tom Lajsic, president of the common council said. "The location could not be better with Wisconsin State Fair to the north, proximity to the interstate and surrounding growth in our business community.» Read Full Article
Preps football photos of the week: Sept. 19
Big conference games and intercity rivalries were a big part of high school football as the season continued in Week 5 on Sept. 19.
Now Newspapers and Lake Country Publications compiled the best photos shared on social media featuring teams from our coverage area, predominantly in Milwaukee and Waukesha counties.
Here's the best sights and sounds from Week 5.
South Milwaukee football dominant over Greenfield
There was a time not too long ago when qualifying for the WIAA playoffs was an unattainable goal for the South Milwaukee football team.
Now, it's old hat.
With their most dominant victory of the season, a 42-7 trouncing of the Greenfield Hustlin' Hawks at home Friday, the Rockets improved to 5-0 overall and 3-0 in the Woodland Conference East Division.
Senior running back Ian Pribyl rushed for 209 yards and three touchdowns as the Rockets qualified for the playoffs for the sixth consecutive season after an 11-year postseason absence. But all that matters little with four regular season games remaining.
"If I'm completely honest, it means nothing right now because our goals are set on facing those opponents on the West side (division of the Woodland Conference) and getting ourselves an outright conference championship," first-year Rockets coach Derek Hoff said.» Read Full Article
Police called when man urinates himself while sleeping in movie theater
Police were called after a man urinated himself while sleeping in a movie theater Aug. 30.
According to the Greenfield police report:
A manager at Budget Cinema, 4475 S. 108th St., called 911 to report a man urinated in a movie theater at 9:10 p.m. Aug. 30.
The responding officers spoke to the manager, who said the man was found sleeping in his chair with a puddle of urine around him after the movie ended. The manager also said another patron said they could smell alcohol on him.
Police spoke to the man, who showed no signs of intoxication or impairment, and he stated he had fallen asleep during the movie and believed he wet himself while sleeping.» Read Full Article
Al-Huda mosque's gravel parking lot can remain in use for now
Greenfield — On a split vote, the Greenfield Common Council reversed a plan commission recommendation and allowed a gravel parking lot that acts as an overflow lot for the Al-Huda mosque to stay, at least for a few months.
Due to worries about drainage and that the growing mosque might start encroaching on the residential neighborhood where it is located, the commission had recommended removing the lot. The commission also was divided, sending the recommendation up on a split vote.
The Al-Huda mosque is at 5073 S. 43rd St.
The council decided last week to extend the mosque's temporary permission for the lot and will let it stay until May 1. Temporary permission was needed because the lot is not paved and its design doesn't meet city code.
The lot is actually the backyard of a home two doors down from the mosque. The mosque's main parking lot extends around a next door home to reach the gravel overflow lot.» Read Full Article
Preps football photos of the week: Sept. 12
The football season continued in Week 4 with colder-than-normal weather and spotty precipitation Sept. 12.
Now Newspapers and Lake Country Publications compiled the best photos shared on social media featuring teams from our coverage area, predominantly in Milwaukee and Waukesha counties.
Here's the best sights and sounds from Week 4.
Banks delivers big run as Greenfield rallies
Depth and heart won out for the Greenfield football team on a cold and soggy night in Shorewood, as the Hustlin' Hawks football team overcame a 12-0 deficit on the strength of big defensive stops and an electrifying 95-yard fourth quarter TD run by Ezekial Banks to pull out a 20-12 victory over the host Greyhounds.
"We saw some of this two weeks ago when we fell behind 14-0 to Pius (only to pull out a 20-14 victory)," said Greenfield coach Joe Koch. "We're a two-platoon team. We're not as or as fast or as strong as other teams, but we do have big hearts.
"The kids knew that they could come back, and they didn't quit."
The win was the third in a row for the Hustlin' Hawks as they improved to 3-1 while Messmer/Shorewood (Messwood), fresh off its first Woodland win in many years last week against Whitnall, fell to 1-3.
Greyhounds' coach Drake Zortman said his team just ran out of gas.» Read Full Article

BreakPoint This Week
BP This Week: An American in Iran
Thank you for your defense of my comment. Just in case there is any doubt in anyone's mind, I want to say that you are correct about my use of satire. Perhaps Becky read my comment without reading Todd's, and so took it out of context. Also, she didn't seem to notice that I also recommended prayer.
BTW I got the idea of using the example of Paul's use of his Roman citizenship to justify Christians asserting their rights today from Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law and Justice, which is mentioned in the article on this page, on his radio program, Jay Sekulow Live. He uses it every time someone calls in to that program to complain about that practice, as Todd did in his comment.
Becky, two things: (1) Richard was not saying that Paul was literally a "cry baby"; he was using satire to make the point that Paul was, in fact, NOT a cry baby. (2) Please speak more respectfully to your fellow commenters. Thank you.
The Other Side????
FIRST: Richard is right on one thing. We should do all we can legally to see that Pastor Saeed is released. But the most powerful thing we can possibly do is pray, because God listens. In the end, God's Will will be done and it will bring Him the glory.
SECOND: Richard just literally made me sick. Has he forgotten or is he just ignoring the fact that Jesus Christ Himself chose Paul (out of all the people on earth)to bring His message to the Gentiles and Paul followed Him. Is he saying Jesus made a mistake and chose a cry baby? Perhaps Richard should have been there to straighten Jesus out. Paul was persecuted and persecuted and persecuted some more--he was imprisoned and stoned and left for dead. If Jesus had not used Paul and others like him,we would not be here calling ourselves followers of Christ. As Americans,we have not suffered that kind of persecution so far, although we may see it if we don't very quickly begin to speak the truth in this nation.
And yet, to Richard, Paul was a cry baby. I am truly sorry for you, my friend.
The other side of the coin
The examples that Todd quotes of the experience of the apostles is by and large accurate as far as they go, but I find them to be very selective. There is no mention, for example, of the time Peter was in prison, the local church prayed for him, and he was released with the help of an angel. Were those praying for Peter making a mistake? Did God make a mistake in granting their request? Of course not. God is sovereign. He will use imprisonment and martyrdom when He decides it is best in the long run, as in the case of James, but He is just as free to decide in the case of Peter to do the opposite.
And let's not forget about that cry baby Paul who, more than once, stood on his puny, fleshly legal rights as a Roman citizen. Too bad Todd wasn't around back then to straighten Paul out.
Again, God is sovereign to use persecution when He deems it best to do so, and to use legal arguments when He deems that the best course. Let God make the decision, and let us pray for God to do what is best, according to His sovereign will and wisdom.
Pastor Saeed
I can't imagine what pastor Saeed or his family is going through at this point and my prayer is that God will meet his and his families needs through this crisis. Here is a radical thought/opinion that I don't hear the Christian community saying or supporting. Again, I would not wish any of this on anyone but the Bible clearly states that if we are persecuted that we are blessed and Christ says we will be persecuted if we follow him. Imagine if the apostle Paul was living today and was put in prison just like he was back in the day or any of the apostles for that matter. Would we all be crying and stomping our feet crying foul and doing all we could to get them out of prison? Probably so. How about when Christ was taken, beaten and ultimately killed. Would we also be crying foul and doing all we could to correct an unjust punishment? Probably so. I hate to say this but God moves in mighty ways and it is all designed to bring glory to Him and not necessarily make our lives easy or free from persecution. The apostle Paul did mighty things while in prison because of his love for the prison guards, which ultimately resulted in their salvation. Of course, our entire life as a Christian was dependent on the persecution of Christ and his ultimate sacrifice. Why are we trying to circumvent God's work? Pastor Saeed and his family felt God was calling them to Iran and this is part of that calling. Listening to this interview it is obvious that pastor Saeed and his wife understand who they are in Christ and to love on those that persecute them. They understand but no one else seems to. In fact, John and Tiffany almost dismiss what Naghmeh was saying in her prayer request and putting the importance of getting justice over what God is doing in this situation. This petition is fine but we are so caught up in our fleshly efforts to right this wrong and are completely disconnected to what God is doing in this situation. All we care about is getting pastor Saeed out of prison. That would be great, but how about taking it to a higher thought and pray for empowerment of pastor Saeed to bring the love of God to bear on peoples lives in Iran and especially the leaders? We need to put our trust in God and not in our legal and really smart fleshly efforts to bring justice to Pastor Saeed. God can and will do much more then anything we muster and I guaranty you that God is going to do mighty things through Pastor Saeed through his Spirit in His love. My prayer is Ephesians 3:16-21 for pastor Saeed and his family. God Bless!

Rumours are swirling about Lawrence Kasdan and Simon Kinberg writing stand-alone films for the Star Wars universe, prompting some to believe the ultimate goal of Disney is to follow the Marvel formula and eventually release 2-3 films a year set a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
It's been reported that Han Solo, Boba Fett, and Yoda are all in line for their own spin-off films, and the potential of those flicks have many fans giddy with excitement. While Disney has yet to confirm these films, if nothing else, the fan response to the rumours should prompt them to proceed with those plans and make movies for those three characters (or at least Bobba Fett).
If Disney does indeed plan a whole universe worth of films, it's likely that a lot of the stand-alone movies will be based on characters from the expanded universe or even characters created by Disney. I'd hope the people at Disney don't feel the need to create characters since there are thousands of already existing characters out there, but I could see them looking to build their own universe instead of pulling from what has been established. Regardless of what they do in terms of bringing in new characters, there are still some awesome ones from the past six films that deserve two hours to themselves.
I've compiled a list of 5 more Star Wars characters that I think would make for awesome films. I've pulled these characters from the previous films, but I've also taken into account their expanded universe appearances. On the assumption that the spin-off rumours are indeed true, the three characters mentioned above aren't included as Disney already has plans for them.
So head to the next page to read my first choice for another awesome stand-alone Star Wars film!
Click below to continue reading.Next
Lando Calrissian
I've always thought that Lando is one of the most interesting and complex characters in the Star Wars universe, and that he wasn't used nearly enough in the films. Well now is the chance to give him his moment and completely flesh out the character. He isn't necessarily one of the good guys, heck he was a pretty big scum bag at times, but the guy had morals and a code of ethics. He was extremely loyal to his friends, so that makes him okay in my book. Plus the duality to his character is part of what makes him so interesting.
What I really want to see is Lando back when he owned the Millennium Falcon. The story of Han winning the Falcon from Lando would be great, and a perfect way for the films of the universe to cross-over, especially if Disney does proceed with their plans for a stand-alone Han Solo film.
Another option would be drawing the story from Lando Calrissian and the Flamewind of Oseon, where Lando ticks off the wrong cop and things go sour. It could be adapted into some crazy story of Lando on the run across the galaxy, showing all the various places he hides out from a cop who's out for blood. It'd be a nice way to show some of the sketchier planets in the Galaxy and a lot more of the Star Wars underworld.

Darth Maul
Darth Maul was undoubtedly the highlight of the prequel trilogies. At least in terms of badass characters, there is no one that compares to the red-faced, double-edged lightsaber wielding Sith apprentice. Yet we know almost nothing about him! There was an expanded universe novel dedicated almost entirely to him, but it still gave hardly any background.
What's with those horns? What's with the funky red and black face (it's actually a Sith tattoo, not his skin) and why was he so submissive despite being the most impressive martial artist with a lightsaber in all the galaxy? In addition to answering all the questions above, we'd get to see Maul for more than the minuscule amount of screen time he received. Talk about a character that was robbed from us far before his time.
Another solid option would be a story about him surviving his assumed death in Menance. According to the expanded universe he actually survived the fall down the reactor chasm, but there's never any real explanation of how he does that. The power is totally in your hands Disney. They say only Siths deal in absolutes, well I absolutely want to see a Darth Maul film.

I get it. If you're over 35 you're supposed to hate Ewoks. After all, how could a bunch of teddy bears overthrow the empire? Well guess what, I'm not over 35, and I love the Ewoks.
I'm also aware that the Ewoks already got spin-off films. The Ewok Adventure and Ewoks: The Battle for Endor were made for TV movies that focused on some kids stuck on Endor. While those films are cute and enjoyable for fans of Star Wars, what I want to see is a full-fledged, made for theaters Ewok adventure.
What better way to expose Star Wars to a new generation of children then to let them grow up on a few Ewok films and then graduate to the other Star Wars films. It's only a matter of years before kids who grow up on flawless special effects won't be interested in the original trilogy (sad I know, and I'm dreading the day, but it will happen). Give them these Ewok films and they'll fall in love with the Star Wars Universe.
That doesn't mean that the films have to be just for little kids. A whole species of little ferocious beasts living on the moon of a planet can be dark as well, I'm just saying keep this one with a PG rating.
I'm very interested to see the origin of Ewoks though. How did these little creatures come to live on a moon, and how are they so well equipped for battle when the time comes? That's the story I want to see. Help me out Disney.

Obi-Wan Kenobi
The story of Obi-Wan Kenobi is as depressing as they come in the Star Wars world. Sure, when Anakin went bad it destroyed Padme, but she died right after, so it's not like she had to suffer with what her husband had done for long. On the other hand, Obi-Wan not only had to see his best friend and Padawan turn to the dark side, but he had to chop off his legs in the process. Say what you want about the prequel films, but the pain in Obi's voice and eyes as he has to cut Anakin down gets me every time.
But after Anakin has been destroyed, or so we briefly think, Obi has to move to Tatooine, change his name (kind of), and watch over a young Luke Skywalker from a distance. But what did he do for all those years in the desolation of that desert planet? We need a movie to step in and fill the gaps between Episode III and Episode IV.
I want to see a movie chronicling everything he did in waiting. He was a Jedi master, and one of the last ones left, so it's safe to assume that he made some pretty awesome discoveries in that time. Somehow he learned the ways of living after death, at least enough to speak to Luke later on. He became very strong with the force, and it'd be amazing to see his development when he was in hiding keeping Luke safe.
The biggest plus side to this movie is there'd be no need to recast. Ewan McGregor is still alive and still looks relatively the same. This film would be the perfect way to connect the Disney movies to the previous trilogies.

Wedge Antilles
I know this pick may not be as common as the rest I have on this list, but hear me out…
Wedge Antilles is regarded as possibly the greatest fighter pilot in all the Rebellion. That's a pretty impressive honor to hold. He's also the only pilot to have survived both attacks on the Death Star. Talk about having some survivor's guilt there. This film could obviously be a lot more than Top Gun in space, but then again, do we really need it to be anything more than that?
Show Antilles training to be a fighter and then have some awesome dogfights in space. He was the one who saved Luke from the TIE fighter that Luke couldn't shake. Let me repeat that: Luke Skywalker, a Jedi in training, couldn't shake the fighter, but Antilles gunned it down no problem. Very impressive if you ask me.
He's the lead character in many of the X-Wing novels, so it isn't as if there's a lack of information to pull from. Bring in the whole Rogue Squadron that Antilles creates and show the adventures and missions that they go on across the Galaxy. An Antilles film would be another great way to reveal some of the lesser known parts of the Star Wars universe.
Those are my picks for 5 other Star Wars films? What do you think of the choices? Which characters would you rather see in a stand-alone film? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.Previous

On a cloudy rain-soaked Sunday the South Side Irish Parade stepped off with smiles wide, hearts warm and weather like you'd find back in the old country.
The honorees for this year's parade --- first responders from the CPD, CFD and Cook County Sheriff -- with special recognition to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Fire Captain Herbie Johnson died several months ago while battling a blaze. Herbie lived a stones through from the parade route and comes from a family of public servants.
From the bagpipers to the marching bands and the dozens of floats, it was easy to see by the friendly faces each step along the way, this year's installment was a real crowd pleaser.
Perhaps the biggest hit of them all was the float by Christmas Without Cancer, a local group who helps families fighting cancer at Christmas time.
Playing the role of good ole St. Patrick was none other than FOX 32's Patrick Elwood.
You have to go with what comes naturally!
Although Pat's Irish grandma Katherine called him little devil more times than he can probably count, he never lets the facts stand in the way of a good story!

There's a lot going on right now with the Li'l Ball o' Hate. His stick is hotter than his temper. Brad Marchand nailed in his 11th goal of the season Saturday afternoon, the game-winner in the Bruins' 3-2 edging of the Lightning at the Garden, and if this were a standard 82-game season, the 24-year-old left winger would be on pace to score 50 goals.
Kind of mesmerizing, isn't it? Brad Marchand, a 50-goal pace, a feat we haven't seen around here since Cam Neely scored 50 in 1993-94. The Bruins have won a season-high six games in a row, and Marchand has potted four game-winners in that stretch.

School Field Trip: Lesbian Wedding
When students attended a school-organized same-sex wedding, some parents were less than pleased.
According to reports, some opponents of same-sex marriage say the field trip was an attempt to "indoctrinate" the students.
"It's just utterly unreasonable that a public school field trip would be to a same-sex wedding," said Chip White, press secretary for the "Yes on 8" campaign. "This is overt indoctrination of children who are too young to have an understanding of its purpose."
But the school is defending its decision to let students attend, saying the trip was academically relevant.
"It really is what we call a teachable moment," said Liz Jaroslow, the school's interim director, who says same-sex marriage have historic significance. "I think I'm well within the parameters."
Students reportedly tossed rose petals on their teacher and her new wife as they left City Hall.
On November 4, California will vote on Proposition 8 which seeks to ban same-sex marriage in the state, and supporters of the ban fear the field trip may normalize same-sex unions to school children.
Tell us -- would you let your child attend a same-sex wedding?
The facts in your posting are incorrect. There were no angry parents nor a firestorm of backlash. That simply is untrue.
The event was organized by a parent and those two families that opted not to participate simply didn't approve the trip. All other parents signed permission.
The only ones in a firestorm of backlash are those individuals who do not live in the district and who seek to impose on the parents a set of values that the parents do not share. They wish to take rights away from those parents and call the decisions of the parents "indoctrination".
How were the children allowed to attend without parental consent? I don't think this was inappropriate simply because it was a same sex ceremony. It was inappropriate for any marriage ceremony unless it was with parent approval.
"This is overt indoctrination of children who are too young to have an understanding of its purpose."
yes, but teaching your kids about some dead guy in the sky is perfectly okay. teaching them people should be treated equally, on the other hand… *rolls eyes*
I wrote about this on my blog today as well. While i do not support same-sex marriage and certainly do not feel that it should be taught in schools - and the No on 8 campaign says in an ad that aired on television last week that it would not be, even IF you supported this since when has attending ANY teacher's wedding during school been a field trip? and is it appropriate for 5 & 6 year olds in the first place.
not to mention, don't the parents have to first sign a release form for field trips? so… they're pissed that *other* parents thought it was okay for their own children to go to a gay wedding? riiight. or does this just go back to them being pissed that a school is okay with kids learning tolerance?
i think it goes to a point that they are concerned about how far schools are going to go in content taught.
how is it any more "right" to teach same-sex marriage than it is to allow teaching creation?
if you are going to deny my rights to free speech and invalidate all my beliefs and those that i want my children to learn, how is that teaching any tolerance for me or my children?
tolerance seems to only be acceptable when it is not affiliated with christianity at all. that in itself is denying my rights.
why does government get to choose what my children learn about? on key hot topics it would be better to let them be taught at home than having them mandated and violating other peoples beliefs.
Yes. My son's other mother and I would have no problem in letting him attend a wedding between people of the same gender.
However, I pray he never asks to come to some of your homes.
so then don't sign the form for your child to go. it's as simple as that. no child here was forced to go. a mom organised this. the school figured it was okay, because, as the article states, it's a historical moment (gays having the right to marry). two families opted out. I don't see why people not involved in this are mad that it was allowed, when the parents of those who WERE involved had to sign a release for their kids to go.
if the school had just whisked these kids off on a field trip without the parents' permission, that would be a completely different story—and not because of where they went, but because of the lack of parental consent.
and who is talking about free speech here other than you? what does this have to do with free speech, anyway? if you were involved in this, you'd obviously have not let your kids go. nothing whatsoever would be infringed upon you or your kids. this situation has nothing to do with you, or your rights at all.
as for tolerance… tolerance and Christianity don't exactly go hand-in-hand a whole lot of the time. I'm not religious anymore. I don't mind if people are religious, as long as they don't try to step across the line and use their religion to interfere with the lives of others, like banning gay marriage, or trying to turn this into a Theocracy.
teaching that same sex marriage is okay is completely different than creation. creation is a *religious belief* (and therefore does not belong in PUBLIC schools), and is not based on *scientific fact*. taking kids to their teacher's same sex marriage *with their parents permission* is just exposing them to more things in the world. allowing gays to marry (and any other rights straight people get to enjoy) should be a basic right. I have yet to hear ONE decent argument for denying gays the right to marry that has absolutely nothing to do with religion, or beliefs based on religion. and as this is a Democracy, and not a Theocracy, and religion and government should be kept separate for that exact reason, you guys need to come up with a better argument.
and if you REALLY want to get into the whole tolerance issue, you should be able to step back and say, "Although, as a Christian, I don't agree with homosexuality, I understand not everyone shares my belief, we live in a country with freedom of religion (or lack thereof), and that this is a Democracy. Therefore, I still think gays should have the right to marry." Many Christians feel that way. I just wish there were more of them who did. THAT is tolerance.
just remember… religious beliefs were once used to deny blacks their rights. and now it's being used to deny gay people their rights.
I'm actually more shocked that a wedding became an approved 'field trip' by this school and/or district! I would not expect a wedding of any sort, traditional or gay, to be a field trip! Field Trips are for educational purposes and while I'm sure they drummed up some educational objectives to tie in with the wedding ceremony, truly, this was just someone's idea of 'fun'.
I can't comprehend how this is an issue. Permission slips were signed, parental consent was granted - this is a nonissue. All of the children present had permission to be there and thus were not at risk of being "indoctrinated" with anything.
Also, as a Catholic, I seem to remember years of having the phrase "love thy neighbor" stressed in CCD. I might not have to love their *actions* or their *choices*, but I'm still called to love the *person* despite them. Just because I disagree with them doesn't mean they don't deserve the same civil and secular rights that I do as a heterosexual.
"a firestorm of backlash from angry parents."
It's really irresponsible of you not to substantiate this claim with a link to a legitimate news source.
Was the field trip "a teachable moment?" I'd say yes it was. With the fight against marriage equality all over the TV and newspapers, it certainly qualifies as "current events."
I remember being taken, as a grade school field trip, to a taping of some Bob Barker game show. I'd say a wedding between a loving couple is far more worthwhile.
my original point had more to do with the fact that this even qualified as a field trip. i can think of plenty of other current event topics that we would not have children taken to. political rallies, protests, court cases, are those all open game now for "field trips"
when i gave my opinion in the second post i was giving my opinion.
i do practice a "love the sinner - hate the sin" mentality. we have same-sex family members. but i still personally believe that the definition of marriage is one man, one woman. proposition 22 was passed by a 61% majority in california in 2000. that is far more than the religious right. so you are blaming the minority in the state of california for the decision of the entire state, one of the most liberal open states in the country.
and just in case you think evolution is totally scientific. there are more holes in that than a big old slice of swiss cheese. actually go and read darwin and you will see that darwin did not say they were mutually exclusive. there is plenty of room for intelligent design. watch the movie by ben stein, expelled, for more information there.
and i still believe that tolerance is not practiced equally or fairly. you (not any one person in specific) require my tolerance over everything. yet you do not offer me the same tolerance and possibility of being right. even when i am tolerant of other beliefs, and do not agree, i in turn am shot down and told by that just by virtue of being a christian and holding to what i believe i am wrong and intolerant.
where is the equality in that?
Right Wing notes, that people do not "offer me the same tolerance and possibility of being right."
Of course we do. It's just that you're not right.
I don't think it's surprising that a group of first graders got a field trip (with parental permission) to go to a wedding. I am sort of surprised that a first grade teacher got married on a school day.
Now you can rail about the permissive parents who signed the permission slips. The principal who issued them. We'll just think you intolerant.
Were you a parent of a child in this class, and you declined to sign the permission slip, I'd be on your side. "Hey, that's Right Wing's prerogative as a parent."
To be tolerant (that word again), you have to extend that same right to others. The parents had every right to sign those slips and let their first graders go to the wedding.
agreed. my children would not have been in that situation in the first place. but you also don't get to decide i am wrong. you just don't agree. just as much as you think i am wrong i disagree with your view. but i think in order to live in a society that is tolerant we have to embrace my opinion just as much as you want me to be open to yours.
i would have had questions about the purpose of my children at age 5&6 attending any wedding during school hours.
thanks for lively discussion! and for keeping it civil. i always love a good debate.
The facts are the parents signed the slip, THEY knew where their children were going! As to if you think it's right or wrong it really doesn't matter unless you have a child there! JMO
"I am sort of surprised that a first grade teacher got married on a school day."
Given the circumstances, she probably couldn't get an appointment on a weekend. There's been a bit of a rush lately, as you might imagine.
Gay marriages are taking place, that is a fact. For the school to ignore that completely is wrong. I am not sure if it was appropriate for schoolchildren to attend the marriage of their teacher, especially during school hours.
I am a lesbian and my wife and I married in Massachusetts. Her students did not attend our wedding. We thought it a private event and did not wish to blur the lines between her professional and private life.
Absolutely I would. I hope that my daughter has the chance to experience as many happy, loving, relationships as possible in her lifetime. She is 5, and one of her classmates has two mothers. Children accept non-traditional arrangements completely without judgment. It is a beautiful think to see.
and just one more reason I'm glad my children are in a private christian school….
There comes again the million dollar question. Would there be such a big hoo ha if the kids were to attend a heterosexual marriage?
Whether kids grow up to be straight or not MAY be influenced, but not decided by surroundings. By making such a big din of this does not just show your concern for your kids, but your non-acceptance for same sex relationship, or for that matter, marriage. What are we teaching the young ones then? Acceptance should be the key, not discrimination.

The nation's first-ever member of the Electoral College to still be in high school was appointed by a California candidate for Congress. Here, in January 2009, members of the U.S. Senate escort the Electoral College ballots through U.S. Captiol to tally votes in the 2008 presidential election.
With the presidential election only hours away, one fact is eminently clear: Barack Obama will carry California.
According to the most recent Field Poll, the president leads Republican challenger Mitt Romney by 21 points, 54 percent to 33 percent, with the rest undecided.
That's a landslide by anyone's definition. But California is only one of the 51 voting jurisdictions on Nov. 6, albeit the largest with 55 of the 270 electoral votes needed for victory.
Yet, in what virtually all astute observers describe as a nail biter, could it be possible that one candidate might win the electoral votes, while the other carries the largest number of popular votes?
Sound familiar?
That's exactly what happened in 2000. Republican George W. Bush won the presidency that year with 271 electoral votes, while Democratic challenger Al Gore captured 500,000 more popular votes. The result was acrimonious for both sides.
Republicans winced because their candidate won with less than a popular majority, casting a pall over Mr. Bush's legitimacy. Democrats groaned because although their candidate collected more popular votes, they were trapped in a time warp by a seemingly (to them) archaic rule in the name of the Electoral College.
Sure, the nation got over it, but it was an awkward time for all. Fast forward to the 2012 election. Most of the "numbers" guys figure that if Romney wins the electoral vote, he will easily capture a slim popular majority.
Yet, with Obama the path is not as certain.
The same quantitative experts believe that there is a greater possibility that if Obama gains the necessary number of electoral votes, he may fall short in garnering a popular majority, which would place us in the political purgatory the nation suffered 12 years ago. Now let's circle back to the role of California in the election.
About 18 million voters have registered for the election. Of that number, we can expect that 75 percent will vote on Tuesday, slightly down from the 82 percent who participated in 2008.
Using the Field Poll data as a guide, it would seem that Obama may capture about 8.1 million votes, compared with 5.4 million for Romney, or a surplus of about 2.7 million votes. Those votes could go a long way toward assuring a popular national majority for Obama in a close election if he also captures the necessary number of electoral votes.
Why do we care?
For the same reasons we cared in 2000. with the nation already more polarized than any time in recent memory, the last thing we need is a split decision on the presidential vote. Republicans have less to worry about than Democrats.
Still, if California comes through big in an Obama electoral win, than the nation may rest a little easier on Nov. 7.

Servings: 6 servings
Difficulty: Easy
1 1/3 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup Butter Flavored Crisco
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1 egg
Preheat oven to 350. Combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Use a whisk to ensure there are no lumps.
Remove a 1/2 cup of the flour mixture and set aside.
Then if you have a food processor, place your pastry blender and "cut in" the Crisco until the flour mixture is combined. If you do not have a food processor use a standard mixer or good ole' fashion elbow grease.
Add milk and beaten egg into flour mixture.
Place into a 8X8 pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the reserved flour mixture on top of the batter.
Sprinkle with cinnamon.
Bake for 25 minutes.
I was not feeling the topping of this cake. The flour on top of the cake grossed me out, so I had to toss it. I do like the actual cake, but it felt incomplete without a sweet topping. I am not sure if I did something wrong, but I'm sure the original cake by Paula Deen is delicious!

Can Strong Customer Relationships Save This Struggling Industry Giant?
Ted is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Pitney Bowes (NYSE: PBI) is the largest provider of mailstream products and services in the world. It has historically enjoyed an enormous competitive advantage in the U.S. through its preferred status with the U.S. Postal Service. However, a decline in physical mail volumes threatens to sink the USPS, and some investors think it will take Pitney Bowes with it. However, Pitney Bowes is making important changes in its business model that may ultimately save the company.
Historically Cheap
One of the best ways to gauge the value of a company with a wide moat is to look at the historical free cash flow margin. Pitney Bowes has historically turned each dollar of sales into just under ten cents. If the company were to continue turning the same amount of sales into free cash flow, it would produce about $500 million in free cash flow in an average year. At a 10x multiple, the company is worth about $25 per share based on its historical performance. At its recent price of $10.63 per share, Pitney Bowes trades at 4.3x normal free cash flow. It trades at a similar multiple of normal pre-tax earnings using a similar methodology.
The company trades near a decade-low multiple for Price/Sales, Price/Earnings, EV/EBITDA, and other common multiples based on TTM figures. So, Pitney Bowes clearly trades at a wide discount to its historical performance
Declining Business
However, historical performance is only useful insofar as the future reflects it. Pitney Bowes has historically enjoyed significant competitive advantages from its vendor status with the USPS, but with the marked decline in traditional mailing volumes expected to continue, Pitney Bowes' profitability may be severely dampened in the coming years.
For years, Pitney Bowes relied on its portable postage meter business for high margins and hundreds of millions in free cash flow. The segment makes up an overwhelming majority of the company's profits, so the decline of the business is a major concern for investors.
In response to the headwinds in the traditional mail segment, Pitney Bowes has made several acquisitions in the technology space with the intent of creating a physical/online hybrid business model. The company now competes with the likes of Stamps.com (NASDAQ: STMP) and other established online competitors for small- and mid-size business revenues. Stamps.com, in particular, is unlikely to yield much ground as Pitney Bowes enters into unknown territory.
Pitney Bowes' mail-sorting segment offers the best value-proposition for its customers, but it is also the least profitable. Still, even this segment has undergone a downturn as high-volume mailers are cutting back.
What You Need to Believe in Order to Invest
Pitney Bowes is not uninvestable at today's price; a rebound in direct-mail marketing could lead to better results in the near term. However, long-term investors must believe that the company can leverage its strong customer relationships in its traditional lines of business in order to justify buying in at $10 and change. As Pitney Bowes shifts its business model toward online platforms, it will be forced to compete with companies like Constant Contact (NASDAQ: CTCT) and Stamps.com that already have an established presence in the crowded market. Pitney Bowes' only discernible competitive advantage in this arena is its relationships with current clients; if it can leverage these relationships, it can take market share from Constant Contact and make headway towards capturing Stamps.com traffic as well.
So, Pitney Bowes looks like a great deal for investors who believe in the stickiness of relationships and Pitney Bowes' ability to cross-sell its services. However, it could be a net destroyer of value if its foray into technology does not pan out.

WAUSAU, WI (WSAU) - The man accused of causing the Wausau West school lockdown by threatening a student will be back in court Tuesday. 18-year-old Marcos L. Garza has a 3:00 p.m. preliminary hearing before judge Greg Grau. Garza is accused of making several threats by text message to his ex-girlfriend while she was in school on Friday, October 5th. He was arrested on Jefferson Street in downtown Wausau carrying a handgun.
Garza is charged with threats to injure, threaten injury or harm by computer message, and carrying a concealed weapon. He is also accused of taking indecent videos of the victim and using them to control her actions. Garza could be sentenced to at least five years in prison if convicted.
Attorney James Connell has been appointed to represent Garza. This preliminary hearing was originally scheduled for last week, but Connell had just taken the case and needed time to prepare.

-- Robert Preidt
WEDNESDAY, April 27 (HealthDay News) -- Exposing young children
to a brief, single anesthetic does not seem to cause long-term
harmful effects on the brain, a finding that should reassure
parents, researchers say.
Previous studies in young animals have found evidence that
anesthetics can cause developmental and behavioral problems, but
whether the same is true in young children has been uncertain.
In this new study, researchers compared the academic performance
of two groups of ninth-grade students in Denmark: 2,689 who had
inguinal hernia repair before they were 1 year of age, and 14,575
in the general population.
There was no statistically significant difference in academic
performance between the two groups, and the majority of students
who had hernia repair in infancy showed no signs of neurological
impairment, the investigators found.
The study is published in the May issue of the journal
"Fortunately, our study did not find a relation between neurodegeneration and anesthesia in young children. The findings should help reassure parents that if their child needs to undergo surgery, a minimal amount of anesthesia does not appear to influence subsequent education achievements later in life," study author Dr. Tom G. Hansen said in a journal news release.
"However, we cannot fully conclude that anesthetics are safe in all cases. More human data need to be collected to exclude effects in more particular domains of neurobehavioral outcome," he added.

children and anesthesia.
