The Living Rainforest is pleased to announce that the theme of this year's competition is: 'Who is responsible … are we ready to take responsibility for the future of our planet?' All shortlisted schools will be invited to attended an International Schools Debate and Prize-giving event in either the UK or the Seychelles.
At the recent United Nations 'Rio+20′ Earth Summit, national governments made little headway on addressing the planet's burgeoning ecological, social and economic problems.
We believe that young people can do better, so we're inviting children to think carefully about who around the world is responsible for doing what to help turn the situation around.
We want to hear what schoolchildren think different groups in society (such as governments, citizens, educators, businesses, organised religions and the media) should be doing to help solve our growing environmental, social and economic crises. Do people's rights and responsibilities differ around the world and if so, how?
The competition and debate are aimed at primary students (ages 7-11) and secondary students (ages 11-17) and their teachers, in both formal and home schools.
First, Second and Third Prizes will be awarded in both categories and one overall Grand Prize Winner will receive a free trip to either the UK or the Seychelles to attend the International Schools Debates, together with a parent and Teacher Champion. All shortlisted primary and secondary schools will also be invited to participate in the International Schools Debates in the UK (26-27 June 2013) or the Seychelles (early to mid July 2013).
Students are invited to write an essay in English, entitled 'Who is responsible … are we ready to take responsibility for the future of our planet?'. A distinguished panel of judges, drawn from experts and educationalists in the field, will select three winning entries for each age category. The winning students will be awarded trophies at the International Schools Debates and their essays will be published on the competition website. Essays will be judged for innovative and creative thinking and the potential to contribute to a broad-ranging and constructive debate (further details on the judging criteria will follow shortly). The essay length differs by age category as follows:
- Primary students (ages 7-11) – max. 400 words
- Secondary students (ages 11-17) - max. 600 words
INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS DEBATES AND PRIZE-GIVING: In 2013, there will be two International Schools Debate & Prize-giving events – one in the Northern Hemisphere and one in the Southern Hemisphere - in order to accommodate the growing interest in the competition. Winning schools will choose which event they wish to attend. The Northern Hemisphere debate will take place at the Living Rainforest (UK) on 26-27 June 2013 and the Southern Hemisphere debate will take place in the Seychelles during early to mid July 2013 (dates TBC). Each primary or secondary school will be represented by a team of up to two students, plus one Teacher Champion. Aside from the Grand Prize Winner and accompanying Teacher Champion and parent, each participating school will need to cover its own costs.
- 25 September 2012 – School/teacher registration begins
- 22 March 2013 – Closing date for essay submissions
- 3 May 2013 – Winners notified and invited to Debates/Prize-giving
- 26-27 June 2013 - Northern Hemisphere Schools Debate and Prize-giving, United Kingdom
- early to mid July 2013 (dates TBC) - Southern Hemisphere Schools Debate and Prize-giving, Seychelles

text: Colorful Lines… I feel like a kid again making nature my own personal jungle gym, brings back so many memories. I don't care what anyone says, stuff like this will never get old to me. What better way to capture this moment that with a gnarly pair of "TROUSER" pants. A thrift store find that I am so proud of, because I am tall it is sometimes difficult for me to find classic cut pants (as these ones) that don't look like high-waters on me. In order to accentuate this style of pant "era" appropriate, I pair it with a silk multi-color blouse. A timeless piece I found, while exploring the neighborhood of Berkeley, Ca at this amazing thrift store on Telegraph. I compliment this classic duo with a chestnut leather belt with gold hardware, and then tuck in my blouse. And to bring it all together, a pair bright red sandals that remind me so much of my childhood. I had just about every color of the infamous salt water sandals growing up, my mom made sure of it. And this red pair that I own today was a twist on that classic look. It's always nice to be able to enjoy some of the things that brought me so much happiness growing up as a kid in beautiful San Diego… (Trouser Pant- Seven For All Mankind/ Chestnut Belt- Seven For All Mankind/ Silk Multi-Color Blouse- Vintage/ Sandals- Lorenzo Chelini)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A telegram (Greek tele: distant and gramma: letter) is a written message transmitted by using an electric device and a huge web of wires. Telegrams used to be very widely used, but are not as popular anymore now that most people who would have used them to communicate can use telephones and e-mail.
The last telegram service, which was placed in India, closed on 15 July 9:00 pm 2013 . On this last day, many people sent one last telegram. The first telegram service was started in India in 1851 by the British colonists.

JACKSONVILLE, FL - DECEMBER 12: Darren McFadden #20 of the Oakland Raiders breaks the tackle of Sean Considine #37 of the Jacksonville Jaguars during the game at EverBank Field on December 12, 2010 in Jacksonville, Florida. (Photo by Sam Greenwood/Getty Images)
In what will be a weekly occurence, we'll give suggestions on who to start in your fantasy league, and who to sit on the bench. We'll try to avoid stating the obvious, like "start Tom Brady" and dig a little deeper for some less obvious choices. Enough with the introduction, let's get started...
Stud of the Week: Darren McFadden, RB, OAK — McFadden finally seems to be putting it all together. He was one of the most dynamic players in college football when he was a backfield mate of Felix Jones at Arkansas, and came into the NFL with lots of fanfare before disappointing as a rookie. Last year was better, and now he might be the best running back in football through the first three weeks. Last week against the Jets, McFadden rushed for 171 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries. He's averaging 131 yards and a touchdown per game on the ground and this week he goes up against a struggling New England defense that let Fred Jackson go off last week.
Dud of the Week: Cam Newton, QB, CAR — Newton surprised everyone in the first two weeks of the season when he topped 400 yards passing in his first two NFL games. Last week against a very average Jacksonville team, Newton looked like a rookie, failing to eclipse 200 yards through the air. This week, he gets the Chicago Bears defense and his numbers should look similar to last week's, if not worse.

BOSTON (AP) - Joel Ward slammed home a rebound at 2:57 of overtime to give Washington a 2-1 victory over Boston on Wednesday night, sending the Capitals to the second round of the playoffs and ending the defending Stanley Cup champion Bruins' hopes of a repeat.
Rookie Braden Holtby stopped 31 shots for Washington in Game 7 - the seventh one-goal game of the series. Matt Hendricks scored the Capitals' other goal.
Tyler Seguin scored, and Tim Thomas made 26 saves for Boston.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Tyler Seguin scored at 3:17 of overtime, Tim Thomas made 36 saves, and the Boston Bruins beat the Washington Capitals 4-3 on Sunday to tie the first-round Eastern Conference playoff series at three games apiece.
The defending Stanley Cup champion Bruins never trailed, but needed a stolen pass and a deft bit of skating to finally get the decisive goal and avoid being eliminated by the seventh-seeded Capitals.
Game 7 is Wednesday night in Boston.
BOSTON (AP) - Troy Brouwer scored on a power play with 1:27 left, giving the Washington Capitals a 4-3 victory Saturday and moving the defending champion Boston Bruins a loss away from elimination.
Brouwer gave the Capitals a 3-2 series lead with his second goal of the playoffs, beating goalie Tim Thomas over the glove with a wrist shot from the right circle. It came with 37 seconds left on a slashing penalty against Benoit Pouliot.
The Bruins, who trailed 2-0 and 3-2, tied it at 8:47 of the third period on Johnny Boychuk's goal.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Playoff rookie Braden Holtby followed up a shaky outing with a superb one by making 44 saves Thursday night, and Alexander Semin scored the go-ahead goal, leading the Washington Capitals to a 2-1 victory over the reigning Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins that tied the first-round series at two games apiece.
Marcus Johansson put the puck past Tim Thomas less than 1 1/2 minutes after the opening faceoff, but Boston's Rich Peverley tied it later in the first period. Semin put Washington ahead for good with 1:17 left in the second on a power-play goal, his second score of the series.
The best-of-seven Eastern Conference series shifts back to Boston for Game 5 on Saturday. Game 6 will be in Washington on Sunday.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Zdeno Chara scored the tiebreaking goal during 4-on-4 play with less than 2 minutes left, and the reigning Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins finally solved playoff rookie goalie Braden Holtby, beating the Washington Capitals 4-3 Monday night to take a 2-1 lead in the first-round series.
Chara's shot from the right circle appeared to get deflected on its way past Holtby. The Bruins captain also had two assists.
Tim Thomas, last season's playoff MVP, made 29 saves.
BOSTON (AP) - Brooks Laich scored in the fourth round of a shootout to give Washington a 3-2 victory over the Boston Bruins on Thursday night and help the Capitals keep pace in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
Washington is tied with Buffalo with 86 points in pursuit of the eighth and final playoff spot in the East. The Sabres remain ahead because they have five games remaining and the Capitals have four.
The Bruins could have clinched a playoff berth with a win. The defending Stanley Cup champions will try again when they play the New York Islanders on Saturday.
BOSTON (AP) - Benoit Pouliot scored the tie-breaking goal midway through the third period, Zdeno Chara had three assists and the surging Boston Bruins beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-2 on Tuesday night.
The Bruins won their third straight game despite two goals by Steven Stamkos, who leads the NHL with 55. Tampa Bay's three-game winning streak ended.
Chara set up three Bruins goals after being honored in a pregame ceremony for reaching the 1,000-game mark in his career. He did that on Saturday night in a 4-2 road victory over the Los Angeles Kings and wrapped up the road trip on Sunday night with a goal in a 3-2 win at the Anaheim Ducks.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I would agree, except the letter writer made sure to specify this raid was spur of the moment, and thus he wouldn't have forewarning to prepare. Since nobody was listening to his requests for help, I doubt he'd have much chance to look up more than the most rudimentary of strategies in between pulls/attempts. Even then, most of the time strategies for raid encounters vary based on group, and not hearing his specific role might have been the biggest hang up.

Edmund Adjapong
Edmund Adjapong is using hip-hop to engage teens in science
Growing up in the Bronx, Edmund Adjapong (M.A. '14) tended the caterpillars in his school's Metamorphosis Lab and watched them become butterflies. He devised an experiment for a sixth grade science project, collected data and put it all together on a trifold display board.
Then the teacher wouldn't allow him to present the project at the science fair because it lacked a control.
"At that moment," Adjapong recalls, "I lost my love of science."
Luckily Adjapong attended Marie Curie High School for Medicine, Nursing and Health Professions, where Christopher Emdin was his Conceptual Physics teacher during freshman year.
"I was surprised to have a teacher who looked and talked like me and who enjoyed hip hop as much as I did," says Adjapong, who is African American. Emdin spoke knowledgably about the music and used elements of the hip-hop lifestyle to make science engaging and fun. "Every student –including myself – felt a familiar connection to the science content and leaned into the instruction. It reignited my passion for science."
Adjapong studied biochemistry and stayed in touch with Emdin, who by then had joined the faculty at Teachers College. Originally Adjapong planned to be a pharmacist, but soon he had a new goal: to be a teacher. "I wanted urban students to fall in love with science the same way I did," he says. "Because science content can be learned at any time, but the passion for that content can be lost easily."
Accepted by every graduate school he applied to, Adjapong says TC, which boasted an urban science education program led by Emdin, "was everything I wanted – but it would have been a financial struggle."
Fortunately in 2013, as the College was launching its $300 million campaign, Tim Greeman, a former New York City teacher, created the Peter Greeman Scholarships in memory of his father. The scholarships support qualified students who commit to teach in low-income, high-need schools for at least two years. Edmund Adjapong became TC's first Peter Greeman Scholar.
In May, Adjapong received his master's in Science Education and is now pursuing another master's in Curriculum & Teaching at TC – with ultimate plans to earn a doctorate. He currently teaches sixth-grade science at Pelham Gardens Middle School in the Bronx, where, like his old mentor, he uses rap and hip hop to meet students on their own cultural turf. He currently is conducting research on Science Genius, a competition created by Emdin and hip-hop icon GZA in which students at New York City high schools compose poetically sophisticated and scientifically rigorous raps. Thus far he finds that when the program comes into schools, attendance, test scores and concept learning all shoot up.
"Faces light up, and students are laughing – all while engaging the content," he says. "That's beautiful, man."

In the November, 1946 issue of The Saturday Evening Post, a painting of a train station called "Crestwood" appeared, giving readers Norman Rockwell's impression of what a commuter suburb's train depot looked like in the 1940s.
Coincidently around this time, 12 year-old Jane Winiker of Eastchester had the opportunity to meet Rockwell at a signing in Brattleboro, VT, where she insisted to the painter that the background he used did not look anything like the real thing.
"He was kind enough to explain that he had put all those houses in to focus the viewer on the idea of commuters," Winiker remembers as she added that back in the 1940s, the area surrounding the train station was much more rural and contained a lake and a park.
Now residing in San Diego, CA, Winiker's memories of Crestwood and it's "commuters" along with her encounter with the famed painter gives us a deeper look into the history of our area, both through the eyes of a painter and the eyes of a child.
Winiker's mother Bessie helped establish the first library in Eastchester as well as a place called Harmony House, which stood across the street from Eastchester HS and was used as an after school destination for students to play and study.

For Immediate Release
WASHINGTON, DC – The Open World Leadership Center at the Library of Congress, an independent Legislative Branch agency working to increase U.S.-Eurasian understanding and partnerships, will host two recognition award ceremonies on Tuesday, May 20 in the Library of Congress. The two events celebrate the exceptional support to the Open World Program by its local hosts and one of the Center's national grantees, Rotary International.
Dr. James H. Billington, Open World Board of Trustees Chairman and Librarian of Congress, will present the 2008 Open World National Grantee of Merit Award to Rotary International. The award will be accepted by Rotary Foundation Trustee Carolyn Jones of Anchorage, Alaska, and former Rotary International Director C. Grant Wilkins of Denver, Colorado.
In a separate ceremony, 26 Open World hosts representing 22 states and the District of Columbia will be recognized for their excellent hosting and programming of Open World delegates, young political and civic leaders who come from seven countries of the former Soviet Union, including Russia. The awards will be presented by former U.S. ambassador to Russia and Open World Board of Trustees member Ambassador James F. Collins and Open World Executive Director, Ambassador John O'Keefe.
Open World's national grantees are competitively selected non-governmental organizations and non-profits; local hosts provide professional grassroots programming as well as home stays for individual delegates. The work of the national grantees and local hosts are integral to the Open World Program.
Open World has introduced more than 13,000 current and future decision makers from Russia and other countries of the former Soviet Union to American political and civic life, and to their American counterparts. Open World delegates range from first-time mayors to veteran journalists, from nonprofit directors to small-business advocates, and from political activists to judges at all levels.
In addition to Russia, Open World also operates dynamic programs in Ukraine and has expanded to Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, and Tajikistan. The U.S. Congress established Open World in 1999 to enhance understanding and capabilities for cooperation between the United States and Russia. In 2003, Congress made all post-Soviet states eligible for the program. Open World promotes partnerships and continued communications between delegates and their American hosts and professional counterparts.

I have rewired the 595s on the breadboard to make sure that power and ground are as close as possible on the chips, and have implemented the 220ohm resister as you have recommended.
But the matrix was still flickering in places it shouldn't be. I managed to solve the problem but I am not sure why my solution works. If you could give me an explanation would be great.
I have a 9v wallwart going into a 5v regulated power supply circuit on the breadboard. I have connected my 3 595s to it as well as the LED matrix. My arduino is powerd by the USB cable running from my computer and from it I have 3 wire ( data, clock, and latch) going into the 595's that are located on the breadbaord. When I have it setup this way I have flikering in my matrix. But if i connect the ground rail of the breadboard to the arduino flickering stops and everything runs perfectly.
I am puzzled by this, since I have thought it doesn't matter where the ground connection is.
The problem is broadly one of "signal integrity"; my guess is that you are either seeing a bad case of overshoot/undershoot/ringing, or reflections due to long wires between the Arduino and the '595.

text: OCTOBER 2012 WATCHED: 15 films - including 3 shorts. Down With Love, La Pasion Segun Berenice, Ars Colonia, El Escapulario, Daughters Of The Dust, Las Poquianchis, The Mirror, La Ciénaga, Dead King, Sunshine, Canoa, Pariah, Tortilla Soup, Mobile Men, Mysterious Object At Noon I watched few films this month. But I've been busy with school. And I actually got to be on a filmset for a couple of days!!! So that's great. TOTAL FILMS 2012: 288 films (78.90% of total) TOP FILMS 1. Daughters Of The Dust 1.Canoa 3.Mysterious Object At Noon 4.Las Poquianchis 5.El Escapulario 1.DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST All the performances are great. I can't wait to see more of her stuff. I know some people don't like comparing the films by POCs to Western films, but this really gave me a sense of Fanny and Alexander. The production design, the costumes, and even the hairstyles are all very good. I think that the editing hasn't held up in time extremely well, but it is nonetheless an incredible film. More people need to see this. 1. CANOA Canoa (Cazals, 1976) is a story that showcases the power of ignorance. It tells the real-life events (as the first title card reminds us: "Esto Si Pasó (This Did Happen)" of several University workers who arrive to the small town of Canoa after a rainstorm prevents them from hiking up a nearby mountain. The villagers, herded by the corrupt priest, attack, maim and kill the workers believing them to be atheistic communists who intend to kill the priest. From a historical point of view, one can argue that Cazal's film is subjective since we get only one side of the story, with the priest emerging the clear antagonist. But after decades of very few corrupt, power-holding officials controlling every aspect of Mexican politics, life and economy, Cazals' argument is rather valid.Achieved with technical mastery that is common in Mexican cinema in the 70s (sadly, after this mini-renaissance, Mexican cinema would again decay), Canoa is an example of great filmmaking. The first scene consists of two reporters on the phone as one dictates the events we are yet to see. Then we see the aftermath of the lynching, in a pseudo-police report, as the credits roll. This introduces a film narrative technique Cazals will employ through the rest of the film: that of breaking the fourth wall, or in plain terms, the characters addressing the camera. Acting as if it were the camera of news reporters investigating the affair after the fact, it interviews a common citizen (played by Salvador Sánchez) who informs us of the events leading up to the lynching, and acting like the choir in a classical Greek play. He tells us of the grip the priest has over the town and his instigation that resulted in the lynching.His peculiar decision to address the audience provides a link from the events to the viewer, making it even more real. This is especially effective considering less than a month later, the Tlatelolco Massacre would break out, and two weeks after that, Mexico would be in the world's spotlight as it hosted the 1968 Olympics. This, I think, is the irony of it all. Mexico, on the verge of modernity, almost catching up with the rest of the world's powers, has to deal with the inheritance of centuries of corruption and violence. And yet, no one is without blame. The lynched workers who tried to distance themselves from current events, the priest and his symbolic place in Mexican history and hierarchy, and the people who allow themselves to be coaxed into believing everything.In the end, the result is horrifying. The scenes that depict the mob attacking the workers is nightmarish. Scarier, I think than some horror films. Human nature, at its worst, is grislier than any monster. 3. MYSTERIOUS OBJECT AT NOON The director himself admits that his intentions with the film changed halfway through the 3-year production. And it shows. While I found the first half entertaining and masterful, the second was more passive. Not sure if it's completely a bad thing, but I honestly prefered the first half. Although the second provides some good moments, it's more on the boring side, or at least requires more patience. 4. LAS POQUIANCHIS There is no one that ends up being innocent. No one. In the film, all the characters share blame, probably except for the girls, who interestingly are featured very little. The two true victims are the two sisters, but as in the bible-old story, one goes down the wrong path and kills the other. It's good, dealing with history and social critique. Ending in bitterness and melancholy, offering a solution under it all. 5. EL ESCAPULARIO It may be redundant to say this about any film photographed by Figueroa, but: CINEMATOGRAPHY! It is glorious, perfect and awesome. There was more than one moment that made me go "what?" The editing and sound design do not stay behind, and we end with something incredible. I am not feeling the story as a whole, since it feels a bit fragmented, but the rest is very good. I definitely need to rewatch this. Soon. Seriously, though. That little ugly still that I have currently does not do justice.

Where We Got Our Name
The STONEWALL JACKSON INN, as a (circa 1880) Queen Ann mansion, sits on "Red Hill" overlooking the Historic District of downtown Harrisonburg. Historically called Rocktown, the city played a central role in the Civil War as it was the supply distribution depot for General Lee's major campaigns. General Stonewall Jackson was on the faculty of the famous Virginia Military Institute. He knew the Valley well, and was General Lee's first choice to be the "Valley's Defender". There were 11 assaults on the City, but it was never taken until after his death.
Shenandoah's Breathtaking Beauty
A valley in the Mountains, which are covered with hardwood forests, is brilliant in the fall, flowering in the spring, green with streams and waterfalls in the summer, with beautiful downhill and cross-country skiing in the wintertime. Eighty percent of the mountains are either State or National Parks or preserved Wild National Forests. Canoeing, White Water rafting, fishing, hiking, biking, or a lazy beautiful motor trip over the Scenic Continental Divide's Skyline Drive are just some of the activities. The Shenandoah is truly a four seasons destination and we are ideally located right in the middle of all this!
The Owner/Innkeeper, Dr. Wayne Engel, is Professor Emeritus at James Madison University, and is well known in the Valley.

Entry Barriers in Retail Trade
Fabiano Schivardi
University of Cagliari
Eliana Viviano
Bank of Italy
January 2008
CEPR Discussion Paper No. DP6637
The 1998 reform of the Italy's retail trade sector delegated the regulation of entry of large stores to the regional governments. We use the local variation in regulation to determine the effects of entry barriers on firms' performance for a representative sample of retailers. We address the endogeneity of entry barriers through local fixed effects and using political variables as instruments. We also control for differences in trends and for area-wide shocks. We find that entry barriers are associated with substantially larger profit margins and substantially lower productivity of incumbent firms. Liberalizing entry has a positive effect on investment in ICT. Consistently, more stringent entry regulation results in higher inflation: lower productivity coupled with larger margins results in higher consumer prices.

Hugh O'Brian (born Hugh Charles Krampe, April 19, 1925) is an American actor, known for his starring role in the 1955-1961 ABC western television series, The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp.
Early life and Marine years[edit]
O'Brian was born as Hugh Charles Krampe in Rochester, New York to Hugh John Krampe, a career United States Marine Corps officer, and his wife, Edith.[1][2]
He attended New Trier High School in Winnetka, Illinois. He later enrolled at the now-defunct Roosevelt Military Academy in Aledo, IL. He lettered in football, basketball, wrestling, and track. O'Brian dropped out of the University of Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio, after one semester to enlist in the United States Marine Corps during World War II. At seventeen, he became the youngest Marine drill instructor.
Career start[edit]
After World War II, O'Brian moved to Los Angeles to study at the University of California, Los Angeles. He was discovered on the stage by Ida Lupino [3] who signed him to a film, Never Fear, she was directing that led to a contract with Universal Pictures.
O'Brian replaced Bud Abbott in what began and ended up as an Abbott and Costello movie, Fireman Save My Child (1954), with Buddy Hackett cast in the Lou Costello role and Spike Jones and his band also appearing at length.
Wyatt Earp and television career[edit]
He was chosen to portray legendary lawman Wyatt Earp on the ABC western series The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp, which debuted in 1955. Alongside Gunsmoke and Cheyenne, which debuted the same year, these programs spearheaded the "adult western" television genre, with the emphasis on character development, rather than moral sermonizing. It soon became one of the top-rated shows on television. During its six-year run, Wyatt Earp consistently placed in the top ten in the United States. Decades later, O'Brian reprised the role in two episodes of the television series Guns of Paradise (1990), TV-movie The Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw (1991) and the independent film Wyatt Earp: Return to Tombstone (1994), the latter mixing new footage and colorized archival sequences from the original series.
O'Brian appeared regularly on other programs in the 1960s, including Jack Palance's ABC circus drama The Greatest Show on Earth. He also appeared as a 'guest attorney' in the 1963 Perry Mason episode "The Case of the Two-Faced Turn-a-bout" when its star, Raymond Burr, was sidelined for a spell after minor emergency surgery. He was a guest celebrity panelist on the popular CBS prime-time programs Password and What's My Line?, and served as a mystery guest on three occasions on the latter series. In 1971 he filmed a TV movie pilot titled PROBE, playing a high-tech (for the times) agent for a company that specialized in recovering valuable items. The pilot would spawn a show for O'Brian named SEARCH, which would run one season (1972-1973). In 1999 and 2000, he co-starred with Dick Van Patten, Deborah Winters, Richard Roundtree, and Richard Anderson miniseries Y2K - World in Crisis.[4]
Film career[edit]
The actor made a number of motion pictures, among them Rocketship X-M (1950), The Lawless Breed (1953), There's No Business Like Show Business (1954), White Feather (1955), Come Fly with Me (1963), Love Has Many Faces (1965), In Harm's Way (1965), Ten Little Indians (1965), and Ambush Bay (1966). While on stage, Elvis Presley introduced O'Brian from the audience at the singer's April 1, 1975, performance at the Las Vegas Hilton, as captured in the imported live CD release "April Fool's Dinner". O'Brian was a featured star in the 1977 two-hour premiere of the popular television series Fantasy Island. He played the last character that John Wayne ever killed on the screen in Wayne's final movie The Shootist (1976). O'Brian was a good friend of Wayne and said he considered this a great honor. O'Brian also appeared in fight scenes with a Bruce Lee lookalike in Lee's last film, Game of Death.
O'Brian recreated his Wyatt Earp role for three 1990s projects: Guns of Paradise (1990) and The Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw (1991), with fellow actor Gene Barry doing likewise as lawman Bat Masterson for each, as well as the independent film Wyatt Earp: Return to Tombstone (1994). He also had a small role in the Danny DeVito/Arnold Schwarzenegger comedy film Twins (1988) as one of several men who had "donated" the DNA that later became the "twins". In the film, Schwarzenegger thought he'd found his "father" when he met Hugh O'Brian's character.
For his contribution to the television industry, Hugh O'Brian has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6613½ Hollywood Blvd. In 1992, he was inducted into the Western Performers Hall of Fame at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
On June 25, 2006, O'Brian married for the first time at age 81; his wife is the former Virginia Barber (born ca. 1952). The ceremony was held at Forest Lawn Memorial Park with the Reverend Robert Schuller, pastor of the former Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California, officiating. The couple was serenaded by close friend Debbie Reynolds.[5]
Hugh O'Brian has dedicated much of his life to the Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY), a non-profit youth leadership development program for high school scholars. HOBY sponsors 10,000 high school sophomores annually through its over 70 leadership programs in all 50 states and 20 countries. Since its inception in 1958, over 400,000 young people have participated in HOBY-related programs.
One high school sophomore from every high school in the United States, referred to as an "ambassador," is welcome to attend a state or regional HOBY seminar. From each of those seminars, students (number based on population) are offered the opportunity to attend the World Leadership Congress (WLC). In 2008, over 500 ambassadors attended from all 50 states and 20 countries.
The concept for HOBY was inspired in 1958 by a nine-day visit O'Brian had with famed humanitarian Dr. Albert Schweitzer in Africa. Dr. Schweitzer believed "the most important thing in education is to teach young people to think for themselves."
Hugh O'Brian's core message to young people is "Freedom to Choose" as explained in an essay on the topic.
I do NOT believe we are all born equal. Created equal in the eyes of God, yes, but physical and emotional differences, parental guidelines, varying environments, being in the right place at the right time, all play a role in enhancing or limiting an individual's development. But I DO believe every man and woman, if given the opportunity and encouragement to recognize their potential, regardless of background, has the freedom to choose in our world. Will an individual be a taker or a giver in life? Will that person be satisfied merely to exist or seek a meaningful purpose? Will he or she dare to dream the impossible dream? I believe every person is created as the steward of his or her own destiny with great power for a specific purpose, to share with others, through service, a reverence for life in a spirit of love.—Hugh O'Brian, "The Freedom to Choose"

Ideally the linker would not generate an EH header if there is no exception frame information. It is possible to use gcc to link C++ code, and it is desirable to always create an EH header if there is any exception frame information, so if there is a problem here I think it should be fixed in the linker.

What effective usage of video have you experienced in your workplace? or in other organizations? Tell us the story...
The "crowd-accelarated innovation" concept presented in Chris Anderson's Talks referenced above definitely is a global phenomenon. And not only for Dancers by the way...
Think about the waves of change that have hit the international political scene over the past few years, and the role videos - through social media in particular - have played. Video-enabled handheld devices in the hands of billions completely change the game, even for global media giants. Even THEY can't keep up. How did they react? They offer platforms for "witnesses" around the world to post their videos so they can bring those to your living room...
Think about the potential impact of video for education around the world. Salman Khan is on a fascinating journey, and he is not alone... There are many many examples on the web of major hubs of learning opportunities... iTunesU (Universities) on the iTunes Store is a good example and again far from the only one of its kind.
Think about the changes TED Talks have brought into your personal life...
Video is truly a very powerful technology (nothing new there...). What's new is that the technology required to make and distribute video on a global scale is cheaper than ever!
So the question is...
How does video transform the way we operate at work?
Whether you work for a large multinational corporation, a school, a governmental office, an NGO, we all need to collaborate to be effective... Think about learining, knowledge sharing, team building, innovation, etc.
What effective usage of video have you experienced in your workplace? or in other organizations? Tell us the story...

Jul 26 2011: As a French and Spanish teacher, my students LOVE learning via engaging videos which I usually find on YouTube. Their love for fun videos has inspired me to provide means for students to make their own language learning videos. I am just starting this adventure and have also been encouraged by the TED talks which you mentioned above. My hope is to eventually be able to attract global participation and provide a hub for language learning resources on my future website. The language learning possibilities are endless....so many engaging videos to be made...so much fun learning to be had!
Jul 26 2011: Audrey, I can't wait to hear more on your project. It relates beautifully to other Educational projects (such as the Khan Academy), and more... I have one such project myself, but that will be the subject of a separate Conversation. Keep it up, keep us posted, share the idea, do launch the website, invite volunteers to join and help you... Thank you for sharing!
Jul 27 2011: Oob, Thank you so much for your encouragement! My project is slow in the making, as I'm learning as I go (there's so much I don't know....but thanks to good help and YouTube, learning is readily available! Another benefit to videos...the pros to video are endless!)
I look very forward to your separate conversation! I hope I don't miss it...I don't always have time for TED, especially during the school year...I'll definitely keep my eye out!
Aug 22 2011: This sounds very interesting! Isn't amazing what ideas we can come up with! I am not sure if you will read what I do as an English teacher or even if you have done this as well, but I use a live city webcam when we are discussing the setting of novel or short story, and it really helps them to better understand the city or the country. I think it would be great fun for students of a foreign language to actually see LIVE what that country/cirty looks like as the people go about their daily business. Just an idea I wanted to share.!

David Naylor | February 20, 2012 | Comments
Despite the doomsayers, SEO doesn't die - it evolves, and we need to adapt.
You may wonder why one of the sessions at SES London is titled "SEO is Dead. Long Live SEO!" As you probably know, the phrase on which it is based - "The King is dead. Long live the King" - dates from the Middle Ages. It signified the continuation of the monarchy: although the old king was dead, a new one would succeed him immediately. SEO is the same: it's not dead; it has just taken new forms.
Prophets and Prophecies of Doom
Back when I started in this industry, people said, "There's no money in that, Dave," "That will never last," and even "You should get a proper job." Indeed, for the last few years, we've been hearing about "the end of Google" and "the death of SEO." I've learned not to pay any attention to these statements. Many people are using such phrases merely as catchy headlines, controversial as they are, to get SEOs like us to click and enquire further. Others are PPC advocates, some are doomsayers similar to people who wander around with billboards claiming that "the end is nigh," and the rest are just ignorant or misinformed as to what SEO actually is.
You could be forgiven for thinking that the people who make these predictions, based on nothing more than the usual evolutionary process of technology, seem to have spent time at the Rupert Murdoch School of Sensationalist Baloney.
Where were the cries of "computer networking is dead!" when wireless came out? They didn't exist, because this was just another form of networking. People just need to learn the new system, which is still based on the same core fundamentals and principles.
Actual Industry Health
SEO hasn't even been under threat, let alone near death. Until the day that Google decides to stop crawling the web and only put out ads (which, of course, will be the beginning of the end for the search giant, and they're smarter than to trigger such a thing), SEO will be very much alive. They might remove the search box from the search engine altogether, rendering it useless - again, a highly unlikely scenario.
As long organic search listings are found via keywords from a search box, there will be SEO. How can there not be? Owners of websites will still want more prominent, profitable positions with any search engine results pages because users will still want the first results returned to them to be the most relevant and to have a choice.
The problem is that many people simply don't understand SEO and how broad it is as a technical discipline. It doesn't die; it simply evolves. Maybe it will take a new name for itself at some point if that's really necessary, and maybe some aspects will change. Tactics will certainly change, as they always have done, but this doesn't mean that SEO is dead - far from it. The ever-changing aspect is what keeps the good SEOs passionate and achieving the best results through keeping up with the changes in the field.
At the end of the day, websites still need to be fast, usable, informative, and above all, index-able!
Supply and Demand
Maybe it's not the technical side of SEO that people are referring to; maybe it's the demand for SEO services.
Bearing in mind that many searches in Google for certain products and industries have dropped a little lately, the graph on the previous page doesn't show a dying industry to me. I'll accept that in the worst case scenario, demand for SEO is possibly evening out, but it's certainly not going down.
We know that this data isn't exactly reliable, but using it as a rough indicator for the health of the industry, I'd say we're pretty safe.
Lots of existing companies, wanting to conquer markets, are only just getting to grips with the potential of online marketing. Then there are new businesses, with new opportunities and new products, that want a piece of the action. Mix in the fact that the number of Internet users is still rising - meaning more people to buy products and services - and you've got the ingredients of a healthy industry for a long time to come. Sure, new technology will come out that will alter how things are done, but that's what evolution is all about. We need to adapt to the changes and keep up with it all.
What's changed so far? Well, it used to be about the on-page SEO and links. The effect of link profiles has changed, branding is more important now, and it's obvious that once Google gets around how easy it is to game social signals, these signals will become an increasingly important factor, too.
The problem is perception. If you see SEO as a static set of knowledge and processes, then you're looking at it all wrong. SEO is exactly what is says on the tin: it's optimizing for search engines and giving them what they want, which necessitates dynamic skills and processes, because what they want changes! It's just evolution (search evolution not Darwinian, of course).

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS10 camera
The 16X-optical-zoom Panasonic Lumix ZS10 is the touchscreen-equipped successor to last year's Lumix DMC-ZS8. The sum of the DMC-ZS10's parts is a fast-focusing, versatile pocket megazoom with high marks for zoom range, scene modes, 3D still shooting, and in-camera extras. But like many Panasonic cameras, this one presents users with an Auto mode that produces somewhat underexposed images. As a result, you must use the camera's manual settings to get the highest-quality output from it. The camera's GPS capabilities make it handy to have on a road trip, but its in-camera mapping features fall far short of the ones we've seen in the Casio Exilim EX-H20G.
Hardware and optics
The 14-megapixel CMOS-based Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS10 kicks off its impressive hardware specs with a 16X (24mm to 384mm) optical zoom lens, which is stabilized by excellent "Power OIS" stabilization. The camera counters movement at full telephoto with a fluid floating motion, so you'll rarely have to struggle to frame a shot.Read more »

text: KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- Metro Transit Ridership is growing, and has been for the last six-months. It could be high gas prices, it could be the recovering economy, but it is probably a number of factors that are driving people to mass transit. In February, ridership shot up 20.6% over the same month last year. That's 49-thousand more rides in one month, for their line haul, ADA and Metro Connect services.
