America Ferrera and Emily Ackerman in a scene from Bethany
(Photo credit: Carol Rosegg)
What would you do if you had lost your house to foreclosure? And were working strictly on commission while you had no savings in the bank? And your daughter had been taken away by Social Services as you could not provide a safe environment? This is the situation for Crystal in Laura Marks' taut and exciting new play, Bethany, being given its world premiere by the Women's Project Theater. America Ferrera, Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner for the title role of ABC's Ugly Betty, returns to Off Broadway for the first time since February 2006, and in a role that requires her to appear on stage almost entirely throughout the play (with just enough time to change costumes), she demonstrates that she is a fine stage actress capable of commanding attention at all times.
Critics often bemoan the fact that there are very few American plays seemingly ripped from the headlines. Instead native plays tend to be dysfunctional family relationship dramas which seem mostly to cover the same territory. The big issues of the day tend to be ignored by American dramatists, probably writing stories from their own personal experiences. In Bethany, Marks has written a riveting play that is as fresh and contemporary as tomorrow's headlines. She has avoided the pitfalls of preaching or being tiresome about her message, in this case, how far would you go to protect your daughter.
When this dark comedy set in 2009 begins, Crystal is breaking into a foreclosed suburban house which she thinks is empty. Having chosen this place because the electricity is still on, she needs a home to show social services in order to get back her five-year-old daughter Bethany. Unfortunately, the house is not empty and Crystal finds herself sharing it with unstable squatter Gary who is afraid of going out but is self-sufficient in the ways of survival. Now Crystal has to enlist him in her plan to get back Bethany.
However, life is not easy for Crystal. Her current job is as a saleswoman working at a Saturn car dealership, but she is informed by her boss Shannon that it is closing at the end of the week. In walks creepy motivational speaker Charlie who claims to be in the market for a car. Crystal has only a few days in which to get him to sign on the dotted line for an expensive sedan that will give her a big commission. There isn't anything Crystal wouldn't do to get back her daughter and as her life spirals out of control, she has some difficult decisions to make.
Tobias Segal and America Ferrera in a scene from Bethany
(Photo credit: Carol Rosegg)
Ferrera's natural cheerfulness and good spirits hold her in good stead as she negotiates the life of a single mother in a recession while at the bottom of the financial barrel but still able to hold up her head. Dressed in a series of tailored business suits with matching high heels from designer Sarah J. Holden, Ferrera is the picture of success - though it is all on the outside. Never does her façade crack until the play's surprising and wrenching denouement.
As briskly and shrewdly directed by Gaye Taylor Upchurch (who fulfilled a similar function on Atlantic Theater's Harper Regan), Ferrera is different with each of the people in her life. Her relationship with Tobias Segal's deranged Gary calls for quick thinking and a great deal of psychology. With Emily Ackerman's amusingly acerbic boss Shannon, Ferrera is up to her eyeballs with inventiveness. Dealing with Myra Lucretia Taylor's smooth and motherly social worker brings forth her beleaguered optimism as the stakes become ever higher based on bureaucracy and red tape. Her negotiations with Ken Marks' unsettling customer call for flirtatiousness and sex appeal. And pacifying irate wife and mother Patricia (played by the ever-reliable Kristin Griffith) calls for her ability to lie convincingly through her teeth.
Lauren Helpern's generic kitchen setting requires that the Saturn dealership to be played on the apron of the stage, allowing the play to move swiftly along without set changes. Both Mark Barton's lighting design and Leon Rothenberg's sound design add immeasurably to the sense of tension and menace inherent in the play.
Playwright Laura Marks who has just graduated from the Juilliard School and has recently been accepted as a member of New Dramatists proves she is already an accomplished playwright who is able to respond to current issues. Bethany gives America Ferrera a bravura role which she turns into a star turn. It is to be eagerly hoped that after Bethany both Ferrera and Marks will be back on the New York stage very soon again.

Pharmacy technician sees Obamacare working every day
If you want to see the Affordable Care Act (ACA) at work, stand behind a pharmacy counter. That's what Desirae Clayborn does, and she's seen nothing but positive experiences.
Clayborn is a pharmacy technician and is studying to be a pharmacist. She admits that when the ACA was first being introduced, customers were "freaking out" despite the pharmacy's efforts to educate them.
I haven't noticed anything negative about people changing their insurance plans. The medications people were taking before are still covered, at close to the same amount or even less. Some people come in expecting to pay and find there's no co-pay. Everyone seems incredibly satisfied with how their plans are working.

FRIDAY, June 10 (HealthDay News) -- Preschool children with
symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have a
smaller-than-normal structure in the brain that plays an important
role in cognitive and motor control, new research shows.
The finding may help efforts to develop ways to treat the common
behavioral disorder in the early stages, according to the
researchers at the Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore.
In the study, high-resolution MRI was used to examine the brains
of 13 preschoolers with ADHD symptoms (including inattentiveness
and impulsivity) and 13 without ADHD symptoms. The scans showed
that children with ADHD symptoms had a significantly smaller
caudate nucleus, a small structure in the subcortical region of the
In addition, the smaller the child's caudate nucleus, the
greater the level of ADHD symptoms reported by parents, the
investigators found.
"Clinically, this abnormal brain development sets the stage for the symptoms of ADHD that contribute to cognitive challenges and problems in school," lead author Mark Mahone, director of neuropsychology at Kennedy Krieger, said in an institute news release.
"Earlier identification and treatment of children presenting with attention problems in the preschool years may minimize the impact of ADHD in the long-term," he added.
The study was published in the June 9 online edition of the
Clinical Neuropsychologist.
ADHD is the most common child behavioral diagnosis in the United
States, affecting about 2 million children.

Inclusive Business Models. Smart, Sustainable and Inclusive Growth at the Base of the Pyramid
Brussels, Belgium
Date:17 Oct 2012 ()
The role of the private sector is vital in the framework of sustainable and viable economic growth of developing and emerging markets. Businesses and industries should have a role to play in turning this vision into reality by supporting sustainable and inclusive business models capable to bring real improvements to the lives of the most vulnerable people. Europe must now take the lead towards enhanced global development policy, stronger partnerships with developing countries, but also with fostering innovation and thus competitiveness.
Marc Van Ameringen participated in the panel together with representatives from the European Commission, the French Government, the German Development Agency (GIZ), CSR Europe, Ashoka and GDF Suez.

I never really hear anyone talk about this color or find many swatches of it online but it's quickly become one of my favorites. I feel like I stumbled on this lip color by accident since I was looking for a plum lipstick - which to me this doesn't come off as plum at all - but instead found a really beautiful, everyday wearable warm deeper rosy color that could easily go from office wear to an evening look. I can't tell if it really does have a bit of gold sheen to it or if the product name just planted that idea in my head, but it does have a beautiful metallic shine to it that gives the color some nice dimension and catches the light. Like another reviewer mentioned, I agree this is one of the more complex colors in the Super Lustrous line and I love it! I've posted swatches to see what the color really looks like since the name may be a bit misleading on this one.
This pink is so close to perfect...but on my very pigmented lips, it appears a bit frosty and not as opaque as I'd like. I really wish I could get this color in a creme finish. I recommend this for anyone that is looking for a complex, wearable, flattering pink.
I've fallen in love with the SL line. In my opinion, the entire line give every expensive department store lipstick stiff competition.
This is a nice rose on my NW15 complexion, nice for the winter with black; different enough from the other Revlon rose lipsticks I have. I also like Copperglow Berry (reviewed separately) for a more intense look. I'll be alternating this one with Smoky Rose (may be my favorite of all).
ETA: Paid just $4.25 for it, quite a bargain.

Once upon a time in the not-so-distant-past I found my go-with-anything-anytime HG lippie: red-but-not-too-bright, wine-but-not-too-plum, bronze-but-not-too-orange, brown-but-not-too-ashy, pearl-but-not-too-frosty lipstick in Revlon's discontinued shade "Deep Nude". Looking at "Gold Pearl Plum" in the store recently, it looked a return to love at first sight. Alas, it was not to be. The color is indeed more modest, office-appropriate purple-brown (plum) than red --- and the "gold" in the name is not there whatsoever. The actual pearl consists of a silver satin sheen. It's not a bad color but it's not a resurrection of Revlon Super Lustrous Deep Nude, which in my estimation was probably the closest thing I've ever seen to a universally-flattering lipstick. For what it is, however, Gold Pearl Plum is an attractive medium plum shade with a modest silvery sheen --- it's just not accurately named. A more apt description would be Silver Pearl Plum. If you want a cool pearl color this is a classic and a keeper; if not you may want to keep looking for the elusive gold satin sheen that so rarely appears in pearl, metallic or frost drugstore lipstick brands.

This lipstick used to be my signature shade when I was younger. I constantly wore this and thought that the color was so beautiful. On me it appeared red with a slight tint of berry and was very flattering. Fast forward about 5 years, I tried this shade on again only to realize that it does not look good on me at all. Maybe I was paler back then or who knows, but I find this shade highly unflattering on me right now. It washes out my complexion and makes me look kind of dead. It also appears brownish instead of having that berry red shade. I look back at my old pictures and still think the lipstick shade looked amazing back then, so it's not as if I outgrew it. Maybe it is because I am into wearing super bright red lipstick shades now instead of deeper shades like this.
I really like this color but HATE HATE HATE the formula. It dried my lips out, wore off quickly and was generally icky. I will never buy this formula again. Price is fine, packaging is fine, lipstick itself- not so much.

Revlon SL is one of my favorites, whether high or low end. This is a very wearable shade. The gold shimmer/frost makes this lighter than you would expect. On my bicolor purple lips (NC35 complexion), it looks like a very shimmery darker pink. The frosted SL shades are not as opaque/pigmented as the creme shades. I prefer the creme shades to hide my bicolored lips, hence the 4 Stars. I would usually give 5 for most SL shades. No scent, like all the SL lipsticks.
I'm surprised there were no reviews for this yet! I would consider this one of the more complex Revlon colors, along the lines of Deep Nude and Copperglow Berry. Goldpearl Plum is, to me, a mix of different colors, such as plum obviously, but with a fair amount of red, pink, or berry undertones. It doesn't pull as warm on me as Deep Nude and Copperglow Berry. I love the golden tinted pearl finish....it's not too much for day wear....in fact, I'm running out the door to work right now, and wearing this color, and believe me, I am very conservative about my makeup....to me, it's meant to enhance my features, not make a statement. IMHO, this looks very nice with the red top I'm wearing. I looked at this for awhile before I picked it up, because Revlon lipsticks seem to oxidize wierdly with my skin chemistry after about 15 minutes, often developing an odd orangish cast, but this one hasn't yet, even if I don't wear a balm underneath. It seems to brighten up my complexion, which is what a good lipstick should do, and man, does my complexion ever need brightening right now....it's been about a month since we've had a nice sunny day around here! So, in conclusion, this one is a keeper for my collection! :) For reference, I believe I would be considered about an NC20-25...I have pretty fair skin with a yellow undertone, and I like makeup with neutral undertones. I have brown hair and hazel eyes.

Very pretty in the tube, turned orangey-pink on my lips. I'm NW25, this may look better on cooler, paler tones.
More reviews by allegro_barbaro
I think Revlon Superlustrous lipsticks are the best out there, including all the high end brands. When ever I am in the US I stock up because at home (Ireland) they are still quite expensive. They have a fantastic range of colours and the reds are the best in the business!
Now on to Goldpearl Plum. The name doesn't really describe the shade. It is not quite plum, more of a medium pink and I don't see a gold pearl running through it, just a flattering glossy shimmer. This is my everyday shade. It makes my face brighter and healthier and goes with most clothes. It is very wearable, the colour stays true and last for hours. Give it a go.

|Danilo Gallinari, SF 32 MIN | 6-20 FG | 5-6 FT | 6 REB | 2 AST | 20 PTS | +1
Gallo had a strange game for sure. He didn't shoot well from the field, but he hit the big shot and combined with Iguodala and Brewer helped limit Kobe to 29 points on 26 shots, including two prayer threes at the end of the game. It was tough to grade but the Nuggets won and Gallo hit what was the biggest shot so he gets a good one.
|Kenneth Faried, SF 32 MIN | 3-6 FG | 0-0 FT | 6 REB | 3 AST | 6 PTS | -8
Faried's first half was absolutely brutal. He went to halftime with only 2 points and a rebound and looked like he didn't belong on the court at all. His normal energy returned a bit in the second half and made things better but overall it was a pretty ugly game for the Manimal.
|Kosta Koufos, C 28 MIN | 3-8 FG | 1-1 FT | 7 REB | 0 AST | 7 PTS | -8
Like Gallinari, a lot of what Koufos did well doesn't show up in the box score. He was a physical presence for the Nuggets and battled Dwight Howard whenever he was on the floor. With Faried lacking his normal energy it was important for Kosta to bring some of his own, and he did that very well.
|Ty Lawson, PG 33 MIN | 9-18 FG | 2-3 FT | 2 REB | 10 AST | 21 PTS | +1
Lawson absolutely abused Steve Nash tonight. He got to the rim at will, and while he struggled to finish a couple times good things normally happened when he went to the basket. The three he hit was a big one as well, as it put the Nuggets up 10 late in the fourth. It was a return to the Lawson that people expected, and not the one from late in games early this year.
|Andre Iguodala, SG 38 MIN | 6-14 FG | 0-0 FT | 6 REB | 7 AST | 15 PTS | +14
Iggy did a bit of everything tonight. He knocked down some threes, finished in transition, rebounded, defended and found teammates all throughout the night. His plus-14 on the night seemed right, as he was always in the middle of everything on both sides of the court when the Nuggets would make a run. In another good sign, the growth of chemistry between Iguodala and the rest of the team continued as he celebrated as much as any Nugget whenever something good happened for him or his teammates.
|Jordan Hamilton, SF 4 MIN | 0-2 FG | 0-0 FT | 2 REB | 0 AST | 0 PTS | -4
Ouch. A tough night for Hamilton, even in such a short amount of minutes. He missed layups, turned the ball over on a shot clock violation (where he seemed to lose track of the remaining time), and got called for a goaltend. A learning experience for a young player hopefully.
|Corey Brewer, SF 23 MIN | 6-14 FG | 1-3 FT | 6 REB | 1 AST | 14 PTS | +15
Brewer completely changed the game when he entered it in the first quarter. His energy was infectious as he attacked the basket and the glass, and he knocked down a couple mid-range jump shots as well. His second half was a bit rougher, but without his early contributions the Nuggets may not have been in the position they found themselves in during the second half.
|JaVale McGee, C 26 MIN | 7-9 FG | 3-7 FT | 6 REB | 0 AST | 17 PTS | +14
JaVale was good JaVale again tonight. His energy and athleticism were on full display, and aside from a iffy goaltending call and a pull-up jumper from the foul line, there really weren't any bad moments for him on the night. While he could still stand to grab a couple more rebounds, which will happen if he stops trying to tap them to people and grab them himself, there isn't really anything to be mad about tonight.
|Andre Miller, PG 24 MIN | 4-10 FG | 3-3 FT | 3 REB | 10 AST | 12 PTS | +10
Miller continued to be an enigma as he has most of the season. A second quarter sequence summed up his night pretty well. On one possession he threw a gorgeous lob to McGee for two points, but came right down the court the next possession and tried to force a lob to Faried for a turnover. A bit later in the quarter he hit his only three of the night, but the next possession he air balled a fadeaway contested two. Just a very up and down night again.
|George Karl
Karl did a good job for the most part but a couple of things made me scratch my head. First off why did Andre Miller get the late possession instead of Lawson, or in the best case scenario an actual set play? Lawson was beating Steve Nash off the dribble all night but instead Miller was asked to beat Jodie Meeks. It ended up working out for the Nuggets because of luck, but I hated the call. Second why did Faried get more minutes than McGee and Koufos? The other two bigs were clearly more effective in the physical game than the Manimal, and they didn't play terrible together. I thought it was strange. But the Nuggets won so Karl gets the benefit of the doubt.

Chapter 143 Reviews
Read...and review =]
As the front door opened, Mya was surprised; very surprised in fact.
"Hi, I'm Mikey!" The little squeaky voice said holding his hand out in which Mya shook it.
"Hey Mikey, I'm Mya!" She said smiling at him.
He was so adorable! A lot nicer then she'd imagined him to be actually.
"Gerard's just upstairs, I'll take you to him" He smiled again.
"Thanks Mikey!" Mya said tapping his back in a friendly gesture.
They got upstairs and waited outside the door.
Mikey knocked it and popped his head in;
"Gee, Mya's here."
"Well let her in and piss off!"
Mikey grunted and opened the door.
Mya stepped in and the door behind her shut closed.
Gerard stood up and walked to lock the door.
Mya just stood there wondering what to do.
"Hey baby" He said quietly coming over and pressing his lips tightly against hers.
"Hey" She said resting her head gently into his chest.
They just stood there, Gerard rubbing her face; neither of them wanting to move.
"My, I've really missed you…I'm so glad you came."
Mya lifted her head "I've missed you too, and like I said on the phone I'm sorry I never answered any of your calls."
"It's okay. Are you sure that everything is okay though?" He said concerningly just so she knew he cared.
"Everything's just been a bit hectic at the moment, but I don't want you to worry about it." Mya said quietly.
Gerard softly lifted her face; "Tell me…"
"No, it's nothing major, it's cool, trust me!" She was so good at lying; Mya knew that.
"My, I wanna know…"
'Shit' she thought to herself, what exactly was she meant to say to him?!
Mya just looked at him, no words came out.
Quickly he picked her up and sat her down on the table, whilst he placed himself on the chair, where he started to slowly rub at her knee.
"Now tell me, even if it's nothing, I still wanna know what's bothering you…" He calmly said with his gorgeous smile.
This made Mya feel like she could actually confined in him.
"Well…" She started. "I met this guy who accidentally texted me and he's a real nice guy and all…" Mya said wondering what exactly she would tell him next. "I really like him, and I erm well I kinda kissed him…"
Gerard just looked at her;
"Well what's the problem?"
Mya was confused, why didn't he see the problem?
"Gee, I kissed him!" She paused again, he still seemed confused; no reaction what so ever. "I…I like him…"
Gerard just looked at her leaving a slight smile on his face;
"Oh I see the problem…tell me why your so worried princess."
Mya was lost; wasn't he bothered that she liked someone else as well as him?!
"Because, I kissed another guy who I also like and it's been bothering me as I love you and I don't want it to come between us! I can't wait for our future together Gerard…" Mya said grabbing hold of his hand.
"Look, its okay! We aren't official yet, I forgive you for this. Plus I can't wait either, it's gonna be great!" He said taking a tighter grip on her hand.
"Talking about our future." She said.
"Yeah, go on." He smiled.
"Well I just wanted to know when…"
Mya was interrupted by a knock at the door.
Gerard unlocked it and went outside the room.
Around about 30 seconds later, Gerard walked back in and re-did the lock.
"I'm so sorry about that, Mikey wanted to know if we needed anything." Gerard gave her the 'typical' look.
Mya giggled. "Aw, sweet!"
"Anyway, carry on from what you were saying." Gerard said sitting down again.
"When are you gonna leave Irina?" Mya blurted out.
Gerard just looked down at the floor;
"I don't know…not just yet, I can't. Hopefully soon though!"
Mya was disappointed, but she didn't want him to know that though.
"Oh, well I guess you know best." She said quite upset.
Gerard caught on; he looked sad, maybe because he knew he'd upset her?
He grabbed hold of her and pulled her into a hug;
"Mya, I'm sorry. I love you, I really do, but I just can't leave her right now."
"I know, I just want you to care and love me that's all." Mya said sounding like she was about to cry.
Gerard felt hurt; he did love and care for her, even if they weren't properly together yet.
"I do love and care for you!" he said slightly raising his voice. "We will be together, and when we are I can give you anything you could ever want!" he said lowering it again.
Mya still wasn't happy; "It's not about the luxury life style y'know. I just want you, that's all"
Mya really did just want him…

On March 17, The United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 1973, an international rebuke of Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi's regime. But how far does the resolution go? Here are the four ways UN Resolution 1973 changes the conflict in Libya.
AP Photo/Jason DeCrow
The key component of the resolution says member nations may use "all necessary measures" to protect Libyan civilians. But what does that really mean? Legal scholars say it's an ambiguous statement likely gives countries license to target Mr. Qaddafi himself.
"The authorisation of 'all necessary measures' is broad and appears to allow the targeting of Gaddafi and others who act to put civilians 'under threat of attack,' " Philippe Sands, a law professor at University College London, wrote in the Guardian.
There is one thing "all necessary measures" does not include, though. The resolution explicitly says no occupying army is to be placed on Libyan soil.

LANSING (WKZO) -- The Michigan Department of Community Health has confirmed the first two flu cases of the season, expecting many more before it all ends next spring.
Experts believe it is time to start thinking about getting a flu shot, particularly if a person is chronically ill, has heart problems, is a senior, pregnant or immunologically deficient.
To hammer home the point, the department introduced Zachary Yaksich, who watched helplessly as the flu took less than 48-hours to kill his normal happy 5-1/2 year old daughter, Alana. He said after what he went through, he thinks it's irresponsible for parents not to get their kids vaccinated.
Tens of thousands die annually in the U.S.from the flu. Last year 115 of them were children and 6 were from Michigan.
The Visiting Nurses Association of Kalamazoo plans a free presentation on flu immunization and other illness prevention steps at the Borgess Health and Fitness Center on Gull Road on October 20 at 4:30pm.
Shots will be available at the event.

This a GREAT tasting simple roast . The slow cooker would be best , but you can still use the oven. You combine all the cans of soup in a pan or the slow cooker pan.
You can use any ,meat you like for the roast. " I have used beef chuck roast , or any Pork Roast.. " Recently we used Pork " Boston cut ... shoulder ? " Season the meat how you prefer ... Myself its a combination of Paprika, Onion, Garlic,, and I add Worshesire and a little terrayki . Mix the soups all together and rub the roast will all your seasons. The longer you can have them concentrate on the meat will be better.
Just before you put it into the cooker add potato's and carrots, I like to add mushroom's but during the last hours so they stay together.
I serve it on fresh buttered bread and put the meat, Potato;s , carrots, and gravy on top of the bread. I do not know if this recipe is from Campbells or some one else. Like I said my Mother passed away when I was 26. But I will tell you this recipe is AWESOME !! Please try it and email me some feed back, I would enjoy hearing from anyone who has tried it and gives My passed away Mother an Thumbs UP !! Thank you Scott Grey firstname.lastname@example.com

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The BEST school in the Valley! Compared to the personal reviews from friends with children in other schools in the west valley, I thank my lucky stars the my child is at Pomelo. My child has a few special needs, but nothing that the teachers and resource administrators can't handle. The Principal is on the ball! She is everywhere, all the time, going out of her way to ensure that the students are happy. And whenever I have concerns, she and her staff are exceptionally (EXCEPTIONALLY) helpful! It is clear that this school is all about the students, which is the way it should be!
The school is great but that doesn't help when the principal is horrible. My child got bullied repeatedly and nothing was done about it. I had to go above and beyond and way over her head and up the channels to see anything done about it. Terrible principal. But the teachers are amazing.
Pomelo was great my son went there. He is now at Hale 8th grader. I will always remember fondly his 1st grade teacher Mrs. Gilreath and Mr. Berstein who prepared him for middle school. At Hale he got straight A's last year. Thanks again for all the dedicated teachers. Babbett Goss Hope you win the 5,000 you deserve it!
Great school, teachers & staff. For our children to have the same opportunities as schools with more money, donations/fundraisers are a key factor to keep music, art, PE, computers, etc. as part of the students curriculum. Team Pomelo/PTA makes every effort in filling the needs of the school where LAUSD can not. As with any school - private or public - there will be conflict on individual levels between parents/faculty/administration/students. Overall, Pomelo has provided an amazing education and social environment for my GATE children.
I expected a better school, but the principal has an attitude problem. I feel that If you are not the right ethnicity, social demographics and even religion than the majority, don't expect your child to fit in. The PTA is extremely pushy with donations. We all know LAUSD is broke, but no everyone can donate. It does have a beautiful campus, a good music program and academically is an OK school, but definitely over-rated. Parents are very involved and care, but when the leadership is not there, no much you can do.
I am sure there are worse schools that your child could attend, but this one seems to have slid way downhill from where it was under previous leadership. Very strange dynamic in the school leadership which seems to wage war on some personnel and favor others to an extent that State requirements for classroom teaching are ignored. I think this school has a great legacy, but a very unpromising future. It seems the school is still coasting off of the past outstanding leadership it has enjoyed, not to mention the benefit of pulling from a strongly educated population. Nothing notable is happening there now. This is a C+ school at best.
I wanted to donate $20 to put up Happy B-day on the Marque as I did last year, and I was told by the PTSA president Elisa Bobrosky that you had to bid on it at the silent auction and it was $100.00. I was told by Elisa my $5, 10, or $20 was not enough. I also spoke with Ms. Gardner and she said it was $100. Wow how sad it's all about money and they would turn away $20.00. I'd rather give it to a charity for NYC!
This is a great friendly school. The principal and the staff are very helpful. This was the best change for my daughter.
Pomelo is a good, safe neighborhood school with caring teachers, involved parents and a dynamic principal. There are many dedicated, outstanding teachers and the atmosphere is warm and caring. The only drawback is that class sizes tend to get a bit large in the upper grades (e.g., 38 students per class) and the GATE program is basically non-existent. For gifted students, it is not an ideal choice since there is essentially no differentiation whatsoever for gifted students. This is unfortunate since it is otherwise a great school.
Pomelo is a great school. It is a community of teachers, parents, staff and children. The teachers, staff and parents work together and make this a wonderful place for the students. The parents appreciate the teachers and the work they do. It takes everyone to make a great school and Pomelo is defnitely great!
Pomelo has a ton of helicopter parents, if you like that and over indulged children with $20 bills, cell phones and poor manners. Also join the PTSA if you want to be mixed up with a bunch of overbearing control freaks with nothing better to do then hoover over their children by being way over invloved in thier school life. Teachers are fine and principal is Great!
Great school for neurotypical children. For children with disabilities, I have not seen such an inept professionalism anywhere in LAUSD. Pomelo wins the award for greatest detriment to the social and emotional development of children who don't fit the norm.
Excellent school. Fantastic teachers, supportive principal, incredible parent support, and reliable support staff. There are many other activities that the children can participate in including ball room dance, computers, chorus, art, and music classes.
Pomelo is a great school because the parents are very involved at the school. There is always the opportunity to be a part of what's going on there. The parents are encouraged to help and are very appreciated.
This is a fantastic school with great students & tremendous parent involvement.
We have two children attending Pomelo and think the faculty and staff there do a great job within the limitations LAUSD places upon them. Our son is on the autistic spectrum and went to 4 different schools before Pomelo and it wasn't until he was at Pomelo that he found a caring, supportive environment to help him grow socially and emotionally. The parents seem very active and involved at Pomelo and although we do have some issues with the school (but is any school perfect?) we highly recommend this elementary school as probably one of the best public schools in the LAUSD system.
There is a tremendous partnership between the school and parents/families. It has ensured the success of many children that I know who have attended there and that in itself gives me great confidence in sending my children.
Ms Arrington truely loves music and cares for each of her kids.
Pomelo Drive Elementary School is an amazing place to send your child to learn. The teachers are wonderful and nurturing. They really care about each student. I as a parent hold and cherish such sweet memories of Pomelo. I personally love spending time there helping wherever I can. This school has a large amount parent volunteers, I think that combined with an amazing staff makes Pomelo the best elementary school around. I would highly recommend people to move to our neighborhood just so their children could attend Pomelo and experience what I am talking about!!!!
both my children (now high schoolers) graduated from Pomelo. It was an excellent foundation for them with unforgettable teachers and experiences.

A new clip has emerged online from Bryan Singer's fantasy epic Jack The Giant Slayer, in which the giants lay siege to a human stronghold.
As was the case with the most recent trailer, the new clip is heavy on the action, as the army of giants shows off its capabilities by unleashing hell upon the human defenders.
"Do these giants have any weaknesses?" bellows an increasingly desperate sounding Ian McShane. "Not many, no," replies Ewan McGregor ruefully.
Take a look, below:
The film follows Nicholas Hoult's eponymous hero as he attempts to make amends after accidentally opening a portal to the land of the giants. having been unceremoniously banished from Earth some years previously, it should come as no surprise that said giants are thirsty to exact their revenge…
Co-starring Bill Nighy, Eleanor Tomlinson and Stanley Tucci, Jack The Giant Slayer opens in the UK on 22 March 2013.

The FAA is revising an earlier proposed airworthiness directive for the Eurocopter BO105A/C/LS/LS A-3 and 105S. The earlier AD proposed inspecting for debonding of the erosion protective shell (abrasion strip) on the leading edge of each main rotor blade. This SNPRM proposes to revise those inspection requirements by identifying specific dates of replacement of the applicable parts and identifying a specific inspection method to discover debonding of an abrasion strip.

cannot view site after repointing domain name?
16 October 2009 at 8:19am
Hi there,
I've already installed my silverstripe site to a temporary URL provided by by webhost. Everything works fine at this location, but when i pointed the domain name (to go live) to my silverstripe installation, it shows as a 404. I can access oher test files in the root folder, so its pointed at the right location. Is there anything else i need to do to get the site to appear under the live domain name - update URLs or similar?
any help appreciated!

hey thanks for the reply. I got this sorted. It was a combination of 2 things.
1. Even though i had pointed the domain name to the name servers, the domain host hadn't switched off a redirect in their "Value Added Services" ??. That was messing up my view of the site.
Once that was removed, i was able to run the "rewritetest.php" in the root, and it worked a treat. Finally site live!
tks again

Read past messages in the President's Message Archive.
Promise yourself at the outset that nothing is more important than finishing the task at hand. Then simply keep your promise.
|2002-2003 ASSE President Mark D. Hansen, PE, CSP, CPE
Perhaps only two things in life provide us with no choice death and taxes. Neither the tax collector nor the grim reaper will take a rain check. But just about everything else can be (and often is) put off. Procrastination is an almost universal peccadillo. Like a cold, it's hardly disastrous, but we'd love to be rid of it just the same.
Procrastination is actually a rationalization in action (or inaction). It is not thrust on us we will it into being. Nor is it likely to simply disappear. But, by identifying our favorite excuses, we can take a solid first step toward combating this delay tactic. As an occasional procrastinator myself, I've used most of the excuses in the book, which I break down into four categories.
Distractions. We procrastinate on tasks we dislike, but rarely put off "fun" things. It's difficult to ignore the lure of a pleasant distraction, and we usually feel pretty good when we give in to those impulses at least until the fun ends and we remember that the job still needs to be done. A pleasant distraction might even include helping plan the company picnic particularly if we can put off updating the HazCom program or reviewing the HazMat spill plan. But such "mundane" tasks need to be completed. Reminding ourselves that we'll feel better once the job is done can often be enough to carry us through.
Something else came up. This "first cousin" to distractions requires more than the average dose of rationalization. To honestly succeed in procrastinating with this one, the intruding activity must truly be more important than the job at hand. It might be an optional meeting on wellness that you attend instead of documenting monthly statistics. Or conducting an audit of a facility your company is buying rather than calculating the incident rate for last year based on some trade organization's formula rather than your company standard (which is due at the end of the month). To beat this efficiency killer, promise yourself at the outset that nothing is more important than finishing the task at hand. Then simply keep your promise.
Someone else is to blame. So this wasn't your job in the first place? Someone else blew it, so now it's been dropped in your lap? You have three choices: 1) complain; 2) refuse the assignment; 3) just do it. The first two take more time and energy than the third and leave us smoldering in somebody else's bad graces. Conversely, if we perform the task quickly, quietly, humbly and well, we will earn praise and respect.
Simply not motivated. SH&E professionals love this one. "When I have spare time, I don't want to waste it on [insert task here]." This attitude disappears when the project has a drop-dead deadline like tomorrow. In the real world, this simply means that no one has cracked the whip or explained the consequences of procrastinating. Sure, its tough to drag yourself to the dentist for a cleaning, but it beats going later for a root canal. Reviewing and submitting your Oil Prevention Plan to the Louisiana Dept. of Environmental Quality is difficult because you must organize and schedule a meeting with three different groups, collect comments, revise the plan, circulate it for signatures, then submit it. But taking the time to do it right will prevent problems in the end.
Self-motivation is a challenge, but it's easier if you imagine the trouble that may cascade down on you if you don't crank up your will power and get to work now. By the way, if you decided to read this article at first glance, rather than leave it for later, congratulations. Now, move on to the next task. Quickly now, before something better comes along.

Your work has been praised for an amazing use of colour and harmony of shapes. How did you come up with this complex technique?
I don't know if it's complex…The main inspiration comes from where I live – possibly the rainiest part of Ireland – it's very rural, dark and bleak so you have to have enough colour and inspiration coming from your head. We cover one half of my studio, which is an old duck hatchery, in white canvas. I mainly paint on canvas, although I love painting on Perspex as well, especially when I'm using Perspex and acrylic. A couple of years ago, I was working at the London Art Fair with my agent Helga – she showed me some Hermann Nitsch's work and I found his whole creative concept incredible, especially the aggression and the physical way of working. I thought it would be interesting to create work under the same ethos, but to experiment more with colour.
Your style is very expressionist. You've mentioned the subconscious and the unconscious as two vital forces shaping you work. So there's no intellectual inspiration behind it?
Definitely, there's no intellectual inspiration.
How do you get access to this sphere of life that remains hidden from the real world? Do you meditate or analyse your dreams?
It's a mixture – Irish people are very spiritual. I've used kundalini yoga as a form of work which opens up the creative part of the subconscious. But I also use neuro-linguistic programming and trough self-hypnosis I'm able to retain images from dreams and usually that is where the essence of colour comes from.
What would you consider the main message of your work?
The main message of my work is joy. A lot of the time my work is created very spontaneously, obviously there's a serious thought process behind it but the actual physical process of making it is very spontaneous, so the end result is energy and colour, which equals joy.
It's a very rare approach in contemporary art, where works tend to be ironic, ugly, depressing, shocking – and you just want to share the joy…
There's so much negativity in the world, so why not seek out happiness and good things instead of focusing on the dark side.
Do you consider painting as a form of therapy? Is it a way to deal with chaos of life? Contrary to some artists who choose to put intellectual restraints on chaos, you seem to embrace it…
Yes, I absolutely agree that it's therapeutic. Personally, I think art should be for everyone. To intellectualise art, to a certain extent, marginalizes the amount of people who are going to appreciate it. Art snobbery is really a bad thing for the whole art world. The essence of art, the purity of it, is the visual attraction.
Do you have a personal relationship with your paintings?
Yes, I have about three or four pieces hanging in my house. For one of the pieces I was offered a disgraceful amount of money during the boom. These days my husband looks at it and says, "Can't believe you turned down that amount of money." It's a piece that has fluorescence in it and at night it guides you along the walls of our kitchen.
Have you experienced crucial moments of self-discovery in your life that helped to define your aesthetic?
Getting married and having children, all those big moments in life, definitely had an effect on my paintings. More recently my life has gone through a lot of turmoil and I think that really helped to define my work. Life is cyclical and every point of change is a learning curve and it's all about how you deal with change in your life to find out who you are.
Was there a moment of change that had a particular impact on your work?
Behind any change in my work, there has always been a mistake I've had to correct, ever since I was 5 and started to paint and create works of art, obviously debatable at the time. This continuous process of correcting is very similar to change in that it can be really defining. Recently, we created a video performance for Harvey Nichols – it was a bit evil, but joyous and fun as well – I created music to go with the video performance. It sounded very pop; the lyrics didn't make sense (laughs). That was a defining moment in my work, very liberating as well.
You've been in a rock band?
Yes, I got a contract with Polygram records when I was 23 and then I left that band and about three years later I set up a trash-metal-industrial-hardcore band. It was amazing energy, fantastic inspiration for what I'm doing now. A lot of work we created then I've been using more recently and someone actually came up to me after the show we did for Harvey Nichols and said, "Is your band signed?" and I was like "You should have come to me seven years ago!"
When did you realise that painting is something you want to do professionally?
The music wasn't selling and in fashion I find it really hard to conform, to create clothes for other people and ultimately you have to think along commercial lines. So everything kept going back to painting – I was selling works to finance the band so at one point I thought I would continue full-time painting. I have never regretted it, I'm extremely lucky to be able to work at something I love and be able to make a living from it. 70% of people I studied with are not working in the arts at all and that's really sad.
These days many artists have turned their back on painting – they're more into installations and performance. Is this the direction contemporary art is heading in?
I do video performance as well – the reason why I've had to look at other ways of getting my work out there is because I can't afford to ship big canvases all over the world. In these economical times, I think it's important to explore new modes. This period, for a lot of my friends- designers, painters, sculptors, and writers – is a great time for creativity because there's not much money around.
The world of art is opening up to other creative fields – also fashion and graphic design. Do you feel inspired by contemporary fashion/graphic designers?
Definitely, in fact I studied Art and Design, so fashion is a passion of mine. At the moment, I admire the beautiful prints of Holly Fulton and Mary Katrantzou, and of course the work of Alexander McQueen who was the conceptual artist himself. Also graffiti art has had a significant influence on my paintings, especially the incredible work of the Bogside Muralists in Northern Ireland that helped to bring to attention political problems in the North – it's a good and inspiring way to explore what happened in the past.
You once confessed that you wanted to spend your First Communion money on a Katharine Hamnett t-shirt?
Yes, I did (laughs). But eventually my mother didn't allow me…
Katharine Hamnett's work has been very political. Do you consider your art political in any way?
No, it's purposely not political because politics and religion, where I live, have ruined the lives of so many people… I just try to stay out of it.
I know you're really into eco issues – you even study climate change maps. When did you become engaged in protecting environment?
My husband is a duck farmer, he produces a special breed of Peking duck and created most amazing environmental projects, mainly about recycling duck waste, for which his company – Silver Hill Foods – won awards in Europe. His work has been inspirational…I use recycled duck feathers to paint, instead of a paintbrush, and also they often become part of my paintings too.
You have slightly altered your style recently. Tell us more about it…
There are newer works that are a little calmer and more pastel, subdued, thoughtful and relaxed. They're more figurative as well. I also have my alter-ego Hank – I always wanted to be a man – he "creates" the performance pieces…I love being a woman, I love the fact that we can have children, but regardless of that, it's a men's world.
You have always wanted to be a man, why?
I think if I had male genitalia my work would be viewed a little bit differently. It takes more time for a female artist to establish herself. Feminism has done so much, but it's been quite stagnant right now and I do think we still live in a sexist world. Men in Ireland are paid more than women for exactly the same job, that's absolutely ridiculous.
Who's your Idol?
The late Alexander McQueen. I love the work of Matthew Stone. My music idols are Patti Smith and Sinead O'Connor – we were in school when she came out and pissed off the Catholic Church and she was right – the Church needs to change a lot in Ireland. And Tracey Emin – I admire her courage and the fact that her work is so personal.
Would you go as far in getting personal as Tracey Emin?
I would have done that 15 years ago, no problem,,. Now I have children and everything I do embarrasses them, so it would be a really painful experience for them and they could end up in therapy [laughs].
What's the next step for you?
I'm putting together two proposals – one for Harvey Nichols' autumn/winter show to do a performance art piece and an installation for them, and the other proposal for Electric Picnic, which is the best music festival in Ireland, to set up the canvas theatre, a massive tent painted through video performance. We already did it at the Flat Lake festival, which is run by a film producer Kevin Allen and an Irish writer Patrick McCabe, and it was quite successful. We created a podium for children to come and read creative writing. I've also designed a line of wrist cuffs – the newer pieces will be made from off cuts of vintage leather painted in acrylic [she presents IDOL with a colourful cuff suitably packaged in paint-splashed linen sack].

Technorati Tags: spanish, spanish verbs, spanish irregular verbs, the spanish verb Poder, conjugating poder
Time to learn another very handy verb! The Spanish verb Poder, which is another irregular verb. Poder means "can or to be able to."
Poder being an irregular verb, means it's not conjugated the normal way, rather, there is a stem-change: o –> ue (except with nosotros)
Here is how to conjugated Poder:
Yo puedo (I can, or I am able to …)
TĂş puedes (You can…)
Ă?l/Ella/Usted puede (He/She/You can …)
Nosotros podamos (We can)
Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes pueden (They/You can …)
Now, including this lesson, you should now know how to conjugate the Spanish verbs: Ir, Tener and Poder. These are all great connector verbs, which you can use to expand your communications in Spanish.
With Poder, you can now express all the things you can or cannot do. For example:
Yo puedo correr rápido. (I can run fast).
Ă?l puede patinar, bailar y concinar. (He can skate, dance and cook).

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith Screenshots
Santa Monica, CA – February 15, 2008
– Fire up the fret board, crank the amp to 11 and get ready to rock this way with Activision, Inc.'s (Nasdaq: ATVI) Guitar Hero®: Aerosmith®, the first game built around the legendary music of America's Greatest Rock 'N Roll Band: Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer. Slated for release this June, this latest installment from the franchise with the #1 best-selling video game in 2007, puts players in the shoes of Perry (guitar), Whitford (guitar) and Hamilton (bass), as they rock out alongside frontman Tyler and drummer Kramer. Gamers will experience Aerosmith's GRAMMY® winning career, from their first gig to becoming rock royalty, in a way that no other entertainment vehicle offers.
To celebrate this historic, ground-breaking collaboration, Guitar Hero® III: Legends of Rock fans will have the opportunity to download and jam to Aerosmith's "Dream On." The song will be available for free from February 16-18 on Xbox LIVE® Marketplace for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PLAYSTATION®Store for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system. For more information, please visit
"Having a game built around Aerosmith has been a huge honor and really a great experience for us," says Joe Perry. "We've put a lot of ideas into the game so that fans can have fun interacting with our music, getting inside our body of work and learning about the band's history."
Steven Tyler says, "Any band that can go from 'Don't Want to Miss A Thing' (Aerosmith's #1 smash hit) to the ass-kicking 'Sweet Emotion' to the cheekiness of 'Love in an Elevator,' to the classic ballad 'Dream On' shows why Activision chose us to headline this game based on the diversity of the Aerosmith catalog. Not only is songwriting a bitch, but then it goes and has puppies."
Perry adds, "On a larger scale, it's cool for us to be pioneers helping to rebuild the music industry through a format like video games. It's great for rock since the record companies are struggling to make sense of how things are changing. Fans want to get and experience music in new formats-and there are going to be some of them who will play the game, then pick up the guitar for real and start bands. It's what's happening now, and it's only going to build more momentum in the future. It's a massive change for the music business."
"We are extremely excited that Aerosmith chose to team up with Guitar Hero, bringing one of the world's all-time best-selling artists together with one of the biggest video game brands, to deliver a new and unique interactive way for our customers to connect with artists and their music," said Dusty Welch, head of publishing for Activision/RedOctane. "This partnership will give Aerosmith, a band that has sold more than 150 million albums worldwide, a powerful and innovative platform to reach their fans and new audiences."
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith brings these quintessential rock legends to the interactive realm to create the ultimate gaming experience. As fans progress through their careers in the game, they can rock out to scores of Aerosmith's greatest hits, as well as songs from celebrated artists that the band has either performed with or has been inspired by in some way. Venues from historical moments during the band's illustrious career offer the experience of "sweet emotion" and further capture the essence of the band's rise to fame.
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is being developed by Neversoft Entertainment for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system. The Wii™ version is being developed by Vicarious Visions. The PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system version is being developed by Budcat. The game is not yet rated by the ESRB.
About Aerosmith
For more than 30 years AEROSMITH has defined American Rock 'n' Roll. Just a brief overview of their remarkable career is truly mind-boggling: over 150 million albums sold, induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, countless awards (four Grammy Awards, eight American Music Awards, six Billboard Awards, and 12 MTV Awards), electrifying sold-out concerts around the world and a diehard "Blue Army" fan-base numbering in the millions worldwide. Described by Mojo editor Phil Alexander in a May '07 cover story as "America's greatest hard rock act," the members of AEROSMITH-STEVEN TYLER (vocals), JOE PERRY (guitar), BRAD WHITFORD (guitar), TOM HAMILTON (bass) and JOEY KRAMER (drums)-remain creatively vital, and are the platinum standard for artistic and commercial success in the music business. Through it all they have defeated the odds, silenced their critics and have undeniably withstood the test of time. AEROSMITH are beginning to work on their next studio album, the follow-up to 2004's critically acclaimed HONKIN ON BOBO, which received a four-star Rolling Stone review.
