WMP12 library keeps corrupting
I have a problem with WMP12 on Win 7 64 bit. I was having a couple of issues with a few songs not being picked up in the library so decided to rebuild the library as it hadn't been done for a while.
I followed the usual proceedure of stopping the WMP network services, deleted the whole media player fodler, restarted the net service and restarted WMP. The library (held on a NAS device) started to load and all was well.
The problem came when I shut down WMP. When I tried to relaunch it I just got a white screen and the timer circle. I cancelled it via task manager and tried again but it was just the same. The only way to restart re the start a library rebuild again.
I ran the trouble shooter but every time it told me the library was corrupt.
Any ideas?

Mining compatibility with other projects in Spain: Solutions and benefits
AbstractMining activities are compatible with other activities in space and time if they are developed together and adapted to each other. If permits are required for two projects that are not considered to be compatible, the authorities will be forced to decide which one has prevalence. In the event of conflict or dispute, it is always preferable to attempt to seek compatibility between projects rather than waste time, effort and money on contesting the prevalence decision, as costly and lengthy lawsuits will only delay the development of both projects, with the resulting loss of business opportunities. In this article, technical solutions designed to achieve mining compatibility with other projects are described in terms of benefits and synergies for the projects and benefits for the government that avoid complex decisions and proceedings and optimize revenues.

Hi all,
A short course in 3D modelling led me to drawing which i have been doing for almost 9 months now - the last 4 of which i have picked up digital painting.
This is my second digital painting (the first being the obligatory billiard ball which i can't find).
Crits and comments welcome.

Happily, obligatory Bargue. Sorry about the quality, camera's all I have at the moment.
This is the sketch book I use when I'm on the train. Again, sorry for the quality. Maybe I should make that my signature.
I like your style!
keep it up
This is the one I use when I'm at home, unless I get a bigger bag, in which case I'll call it something else.
Thanks LasseHeuer. I had a look at your sketch book and you have a nice variation of work. It's always good to try something new; any experience is good experience.
I really like your pencil shading skills.
Is that really your only 2nd digital painting? Damn good one.
And that guitar (or maybe smth else) perspective peace, would love to see it finished

nice work you draw really well for the short time youve been drawing, keep it up

Thanks seesty. You've got a nice breadth of work and your anatomy is coming along nicely + those sketch book entries on the last page have a nice looseness to them.
Few more sketches while watching Top Gear.
Yo mate! Nice work! Really love the photo realistic rendering of yours =) Great technique.
Oh! Also noticed you're in Melbs! Wanna come to sketchgroup? hehe. It's on every Sunday in the city, a bunch of artists get together and sketch our asses off for a few hours, and you are totally welcome dude =)
Let me know if you want to come down.
Cheers, Daz
This good in 9 months?! Dammit Fush you got me breaking out the double punctuation, and I'm sorely tempted to go back and add some more.

Bring out your crits, asspats, and assorted comments
I got me a sketchbook...
Slow, yet hopefully steady, improvement. This way
The Sceptical Saint: Cheers for feedback. Looking at your skecthbook it looks like you're getting a good handle on values + that picture of the chicks face has got some nice fleshy tones.
Magic Man: Thanks very much. That pic of Syd Mead is spot on - real nice values in there + keen on doing sketch meet-up. Time and place?
These are quick, train doings with the aim of confident, crisp lines (hence no render) - the opposite to what my sketch lines have been so far.
Hopefully I'll get a scanner for my birthday.
I want to get faster at sketching and sketching accurately. I choose movie plates as I reckon I will learn more from the lighting than I would with an image from Google image search.
Very good studies! Your attention to detail is quite amazing. Keep up the good work!
You got some nice studies here
I am Available for freelance
This is another still from "The Fifth Element" - it's a hand crushed in a concrete door with a key coming from the finger.
I am still getting caught up on detail and need to keep my colours more blocked and overall quicker. I found that instead of using the picture at full size it was easier to see colours and shapes by reducing it to around post-it note size. I'm guessing this is approximate to the technique of squinting to see general shapes and colours.
Bit's and pieces from the train sketchbook. Lines are getting more confident ..

A Phase III, Multicenter, Multinational, Randomized, Parallel Group, Double-blind Trial of Clopidogrel Versus Placebo in High-risk Patients Aged 45 Years and Older, at Risk of Atherothrombotic Events, and Who Are Receiving Background Therapy Including Low-dose ASA.
- Atherothrombosis is a progressive and generalized vascular disease resulting in events
leading to myocardial infarction (heart attack), stroke, and vascular death.
- In patients at risk for this disease, it is characterized by an unpredictable, sudden
disruption of atherosclerotic plaques, which may lead to total occlusion of artery due
to formation of a clot. The use of aspirin (blood thinner agent) for reducing those
major ischemic events is either indicated, or recommended by international guidelines.
However, aspirin fails to prevent a high percentage of such life-threatening events.
Therefore, more effective blood thinning therapy may provide additional clinical
benefit to such patients.
- The results of the CURE trial in patients with unstable angina demonstrate the
additional benefit of long-term treatment (up to one year) with clopidogrel, (a blood
thinner agent), when administered in combination with standard therapy including
aspirin. The purpose of CHARISMA is to investigate whether a similar clinical benefit
of clopidogrel may apply to a broad population of high-risk patients receiving low-dose
aspirin therapy. Such population includes patients with previous cardiovascular,
neurovascular or peripheral arterial manifestations of atherothrombosis and patients
with combinations of recognized risk factors for atherosclerosis.
- To assess the efficacy of clopidogrel 75 mg once-daily by comparison with a placebo, in
preventing cardiovascular morbidity/mortality. The study will compare the efficacy of
the two regimens in preventing the occurrence of major cardiovascular complications
(stroke, heart attack, cardiovascular death) in high-risk patients who are otherwise
receiving low-dose aspirin therapy (75-162 mg daily).
- To evaluate the safety of clopidogrel in this population, and more specifically the
incidence of fatal or severe bleeding (as per GUSTO definition), in order to estimate
the global benefit of clopidogrel in this patient population.

Creditors for Tulsa's troubled SemGroup have stepped in and taken control of the company. Last week, SemGroup, a large employer in Tulsa, surprised many by announcing it was close to bankruptcy. The News On 6's Steve Berg reports Manchester Securities and Alerian Capital Management say they're acting on rights they have in their loan agreements with SemGroup.
Manchester and Alerian say they are still fully supportive of the existing management at SemGroup and are enthusiastic about the company's future. But, financial experts say they face big hurdles.
While voicing support, the creditors for SemGroup's first step was to shake up the board of directors and appoint three of their own people.
"What the action says today is that the board failed. The management team didn't do what they needed to do to make the company successful," said Jake Dollarhide with Longbow Asset Management.
Dollarhide says the first step for SemGroup will undoubtedly be to raise some cash.
"Just, much like Williams did. Williams had to have a loan from Warren Buffet and Berkshire Hathaway and Lehman Brothers, August 2002. $900 million loan to help them survive," said Jake Dollarhide with Longbow Asset Management.
But, unlike Williams Companies, SemGroup will be operating in a mortgage-crisis climate in which bankers don't have much appetite for risky loans.
"Unfortunately the financial markets, the banking sector is very weak and so they don't have some of the same options that Williams had back in 2002," said Jake Dollarhide with Longbow Asset Management.
Step two, he says, might be to sell some of its portfolio to raise money.
"They've made 50 or so acquisitions in the past four or five years. There are definitely some candidates for helping the survival," said Jake Dollarhide with Longbow Asset Management.
While the directors have changed, the company still faces the same problems it did last week.
"All today's announcement means is the situation is as bad as everyone feared it might be," said Jake Dollarhide with Longbow Asset Management.
Dollarhide says thousands of companies go bankrupt without ever talking about it first. The fact that SemGroup has discussed he says is not positive.
"That's not a good sign," said Jake Dollarhide with Longbow Asset Management.
SemGroup L.P. employs about 400 people in Tulsa and 2,000 companywide.

Joan and Macon Brock Jr. '64, two of Randolph-Macon College's most generous benefactors,
were honored recently with the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) Award for Philanthropy.
(l. to r.) R-MC President Emeritus Roger Martin, William Greer Jr., President of
Virginia Wesleyan College, Joan Brock, Macon Brock Jr. '64, R-MC President Robert
R. Lindgren. The Brocks are shown here with the three presidents with whom they
worked most closely as chairs of their respective boards.
The award was presented on January 6, 2014 during the CIC's annual Presidents Institute
in Marco Island, Florida. Chris Kimball, chair of the CIC Board of Directors and
president of California Lutheran University, and Richard Ekman, president of CIC,
presented the awards.
Philanthropic Spirit
The Award for Philanthropy celebrates individuals who demonstrate the love of humankind
through consequential giving and who provide an example of the philanthropic spirit.
In announcing the award, Kimball said the Brocks' "scholarship funds have helped
thousands of students pursue their dream of a college education and encouraged those
recipients to mentor high school students. As a supporter of 15 private colleges
and universities in Virginia...as well as the Brock Center for the Study of Religious
Freedom and the Hampton Roads Community Foundation, the Brocks have set a standard
for higher education supporters everywhere."
Randolph-Macon College President Robert R. Lindgren congratulates the Brocks on
this well-deserved award.
"The Randolph-Macon College community is thrilled that Macon and Joan have been
recognized for their generosity and remarkable leadership," says Lindgren. "Their
spirit and vision are unmatched, and we applaud this testimony to the impact that
they are making on so many lives."
Joan and Macon Brock Jr. '64
Throughout the years, the Brocks have supported R-MC in many ways. The
Brock Sports and Recreation Center, the Brock Residence Hall in
Thomas Branch, and renovations to
Fox and Haley
Halls were all made possible with the help of the Brocks. In addition, the Brocks
endowed the
Joan and Macon Brock Professorship in Psychology, which is currently held
by Professor Kelly Lambert. Most recently, the Brocks helped facilitate the construction
of the new Brock Commons
student center through their $5 million gift.
Macon Brock served on the R-MC Board of Trustees from 1992-2009 and is a former
member of the college's Board of Associates. Macon and Joan each chaired, at the
same time, the Board of Trustees of a Virginia residential liberal arts college,
R-MC and Virginia Wesleyan College respectively. In 2009, Macon and Joan Brock each
received an Honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the R-MC. In addition, Macon serves
as chairman of R-MC's capital campaign, Building Extraordinary,
a $100 million initiative. The Brocks have also provided substantial support to
Virginia Wesleyan College and to Joan's alma mater, Longwood University, where it
was used to create Brock Commons, the centerpiece of the campus.
The CIC
The Council of Independent Colleges is an association of 645 nonprofit independent
colleges and universities and more than 90 higher education organizations that has
worked since 1956 to support college and university leadership, advance institutional
excellence, and enhance public understanding of private higher education's contributions
to society. The CIC is the major national organization that focuses on providing
services to leaders of independent colleges and universities as well as conferences,
seminars, and other programs that help institutions to improve educational quality,
administrative and financial performance, and institutional visibility. The CIC
also provides support to state fundraising associations that organize programs and
generate contributions for private colleges and universities.

Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin just became the third college football coach to make at least $5 million a year from their current schools.
The deal he signed Thursday will pay him $5 million a year through 2019, joining Alabama's Nick Saban and Texas' Mack Brown in that rarefied air.
Eight of the country's highest paid coaches reside in the SEC, according to USA Today. The full list, before Sumlin's new contract, is here.
They are:
FSU's Jimbo Fisher is the ACC's highest paid coach (No. 21 overall) at $2.75 million, just ahead of Florida's Will Muschamp at $2.73 million.
Sumlin, who is 19-6 in two seasons, including four losses this year, was mentioned in connection with the coaching search at Southern California.
This is from the USA Today's article:
Under the deal he signed upon leaving Houston after the 2011 season, he was to be paid $2.436 million for 2012, including $436,000 related to the payment of his buyout to Houston. After the 2012 season, Texas A&M increased his pay to $3.1 million for 2013, making him one of the nation's 20 highest-paid football head coaches this season and one of 17 making at least $3 million.
This sets up a major bump for Saban, who likely will become the first $10 million a year coach, whether he bolts for Texas or stays at Alabama. The deal most often mentioned with the Texas job is for $100 million over 10 years, with or without a percentage of the Longhorn Network.

these are their salaries. they all make money off endorsement deals. cmr has won 2 sec championships and several top 5 finishes. you guys might want to check Georgia's history beyond cmr. before he got there, the last sec championship came in 1982, I personally can't imagine who you guys think might do better. if you're a dawg complaining, you need to consider this. if you're not a dawg, then maybe you could comment on your own teams articles and shut up about Georgia's. I'll stand by cmr. he's a class act and a great coach.

Richt makes well over $4,000,000 a year when you add in endorsements, commercials, testimonials, radio/TV shows, etc. Not bad for a 3rd rate coaching wannabe who can't win the big games.

LAS VEGAS -- Although Nevada's unemployment rate recently fell to its lowest point in five years, it is still at more than 9 percent with thousands of people looking to find a job.
Operators of local career schools say applicants may need to take a closer look at their communication skills. With so few jobs available, employers are able to demand things they couldn't before such as being good communicators and being adaptable.
The Foundation for an Independent Tomorrow, or FIT, is expanding. It helps the unemployed or underemployed find work. FIT is teaching what are called "soft skills."
"Jobs that didn't used to necessarily require those skills now do," FIT CEO Janet Blumen said.
In FIT classrooms, job seekers will learn the basics such as how to speak professionally to co-workers and how to get to work on time. They will also learn computer literacy skills which include Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
"Literally every job requires computer competency and not just being able to email your best friend," Blumen said.
FIT graduates say the skills are necessary.
"We need to learn things that are going to get us ahead for employment," said James Jones, FIT graduate.
Instructors say it's never too early to start picking up these skills.
High school students at West Career & Technical Academy are learning skills marketable to companies across the world. One class focuses on 3-D animation. The students learn how to communicate their work, not just regurgitate facts. Principal Monte Bay says today's students need solid skills, if they want to get an employer's attention.
"Able to present an idea, problem solve, think on their feet, be creative and have oral communication skills," he said. "It makes them very, very valuable as a prospective student or employee."
Attending a career school can never guarantee employment, but instructors say it helps to have additional skills on a resume.

Lovely, lovely.
Hubs and I booked in here for one last curry before heading back to the states. I am so happy we did.
The staff were really amazing. They treated us so well that husband half-jokingly suggested that they must have mistaken us for food critics. We asked them to call us a cab back to the hotel (The hotel was pretty nearby but my god, if Nottingham doesn't have the worst roads for out of towners to negotiate...) and they offered us a free drink at the reception bar while we waited.
The food was just fabulous. I tried to eat as many lamb curries as I could stomach while in Britain, and this one was the best. The lamb was cooked perfectly! Fork tender and really great. Husband had a prawn curry dish that was just as tasty, as were our starters.
Do book a table, as the place filled up quickly!
I really enjoyed this place. It had just won best restaurant award that day that I are there and it was well deserved.
The food is delicious and the cocktails are nice too :)
The staff are so accommodating and friendly. Highly recommended!
There are surely 12 or so Indian Restaurants in the same central district of Nottingham, so competition is brisk. But whenever I've tried to walk into '4550' on chance, a table is impossible. That must mean something. Last night was no exception, and five of us sat at a table just vacated by 4 members of the English Cricket Team, who were dining with Sir Garfield Sobers. Celebs as well! The sound of happy diners filled the room.
The food is stylish and fresh, the service prompt and attentive, the ambience good. Many habitual curry dishes are given a slight spin with the addition of garnishes or vegetables, and there are a few choices not normally found, such as Fish Amritsari, Chicken Bemisaal, and Tawa. Very good vegetarian menu, too.
A good and sensibly priced Wine List meant that we finished the evening pleasurably. 4550 is one to return to.
They have the mix of modern and traditional just right here. Not a bit of flock wallpaper to be seen. But it's not a let's drop in for a curry after 10 pints of beer kind of a place.
It's not a fast food joint, either, but everything is freshly prepared, and nicely presented. The menu is huge, which is sometimes a bit off putting, but I've never had a bad meal here, and neither have my vegetarian pals. My personal favourite is the lamb rogan josh.
Their motto is 'Atithi Devo Bhava' ('the guest is truly your god'), but I'm afraid this might not apply on a busy Saturday night, when it can go a bit Pete Tong. As a result I tend to stick to a day in the week.
The prices are average to high for an Indian restaurant, but IMO it represents reasonable value for money.
Went here for my graduation celebration meal with my family. One of the best meals I've ever had. Superb food and service. The only problem was the heat! The gorgeous building doesn't lend itself to eating indoors in the heat of summer. Staff were great, and even brought out a special dessert saying congratulations on it! Great evening.
I also went with some student mates. Be warned, it's a very expensive bar!
This is a great, contemporary looking indian restaurant. My first experience was a great one - I celebrated a birthday here and the food was impressive, the service fantastic and they even brought out a cake and sang to me!
It was so good I took a friend back there who had a chicken dishes with pieces blatanty uncooked. Not wanting to cause a fuss, he ate what he cook and then told them at the end of the meal. In return for this discretion, the restaurant were less than discreet and brought the offending chicken back from the kitchen and attempted to demonstrate that cooked chicken was supposed to be life-threateningly dark pink, and decidedly raw. A real disappointment that took the edge off a wonderful birthday evening spent there.
The jury is out on this one - I've seen its potential but that is the worst reaction to a valid, and subtle complaint I could imagine, and made us feel uncomfortable and not in anyway reassured to return.
An absolute must of a dining experience even if you can only afford to do it once!
The food and service are sublime. You never feel rushed or cramped and the garden is gorgeous; a real hideaway in the middle of a busy city.
You can eat here at lunchtime from 12 - 2.
I have two friends living in London (quite a few good restaurants there?) who come up here to eat for birthdays/special occasions. Can't get a better reccomendation than that!
I totally agree with muddybunny, World Service is amazing. There's not a bad thing that I can say about it, it is just perfect.
I think it is expensive as when I went with my boyfriend, it cost £140! However, we did make the most of it and order 3 courses, and I think that the expense just adds to the experience.
Although a little pricey, this is a lovely modern indian restaurant, situated in the city centre.
This is a very trendy eatery and is at the higher end of the price range. But what you get is a very varied and iteresting menu, with dishes not available in the bog standard restaurants. Its more formal yet contemporary etting is a welcome change to the more casual indian restaurants and it feels more of a dining experience then just a meal out.
I have eaten here as a couple and as part of a large group. When with the group we had a taster menu which was great as i tried things i wouldnt ordinarily have picked out. Food was very well preented and all the food was well cooked and very tasty.
Pricing on drinks is expensive and here price i found was the only real downfall.
This i more for a treat then a general night out.
For the people in this world who like the experience of eating out and have enough money to do so in style, this is the absolute best in Nottingham.
This is my special occasion place, and we go the whole hog! Extensive list of cocktails when you arrive, including champagne cocktails, all taken in a delightfully relaxed seating area near the bar. Three courses of superb quality, and thoughtfully constructed food, which portion sizes are plentiful but not over the top. Great wine list, with write-ups that actually describe what you drink! Coffee, liquers and petit fours in the bar after the meal.
Don't expect any money for the cab home after, but it's all worth it.
There are plenty of reviews for this restaurant already. So, it is not necessary to tell you how good it was again. We found it in the first place through Qype and were not disappointed at all. As visitors to Nottingham we were taking pot luck and it paid off, handy NCP carpark next door but that was £7.. Good restaurant, good food, good location. We got 25% knocked off the bill with VoucherCloud too. X = You've gotta be kidding me
XX = trying but not reaching the standard expected or advertised
XXX = achieving the standards expected/advertised however high that might be
XXXX = they're doing something special here, above expected standards of service
XXXXX = WOW! you gotta go here!
4.5 stars, rounding up to 5. We were the first people here on a Saturday evening and based on interwebs reviews were hopeful of a tasty meal. And it was! The kastoori kebab was fresh, hot and flavoursome with a nice spice blend. We ordered channa masala and lamb achaari with raita and rice pulau to go with it. And they were way above the usual stuff you get in a suburban or regional Indian restaurant - delicious, fresh, very tender lamb, properly cooked chickpeas, and a lovely balance of spice and heat. The rice was good, and the raita was ok (it seemed to be made of thin French style low-fat yoghurt rather than a more robust one. Was perfectly edible just not what I was expecting.)
The service was quick, polite and attentive. A couple of little slips like bringing a jug of water instead of a glass of sparkling water, but eh, not to worry.
Overall a great meal and if I'm ever in Nottingham I'll come back here!
There are a vast number of curry houses in Nottingham and I'm afraid to say this isn't one of the best. It has a very trendy interior but I think the price you pay for the meal is for the decor rather than the curry.
There's nothing particularly wrong with the food but you can get a similar standard of curry from another restaurant for less money.
This restaurant is very unique in the aspect that I have not eaten in a facility quite like it. The restaurant is based in a 17th century house fairly central in Nottingham. If you like a bit of history and culture when you eat then this might be the place for you. The interior is very stylish and lavish and very rich, the definitely promotes the feeling of a historic building. They offer a great A La Carte menu with a great variety of British dishes. Without sounding ageist when I ate here I was the youngest person here. It is very classy and the staffs have been trained to deal with a height clientele of people. Ideal if you fancy a posh night out
Best Chicken Tikka Masala in Nottingham, in a fun and modern setting. Actually had a whole free Indian banquet there recently, a special offer with the local paper, mmmm, what a night that was! Nice, fun place to eat- even if you do have to pay!
Although it's located on the same road as three other top Nottingham Indian restaurants, 4550 is still doing a roaring trade - a testimonial to the establishment's warranted popularity. With such an extensive menu one would think that the quality of the food would suffer, but from my experience everything I inhaled in that restaurant was very good. I would say however that the 60 or so main dishes make ordering rather troublesome. A good idea, especially if you're hungry, is to go for the banquet. At £20 a head it isn't cheap but you get to sample a wide range from the menu and all the accessories are included (naan, rice, poppadoms etc). I recommend to those a little short on cash to stick to the vegetarian options which are about three or four pounds cheaper than their meat counterparts and every bit as deliciousand maybe skip dessert.
Fantastic place to go for a really spoilly, but not cheap... we spent £80 a head (two people). The food was fantastic though, and the service , as you would hope for the price is impecabble.
Fantastic on a late summer evening to sit outside in the garden and enjoy a few pre-dinner cocktails.
I had dinner here on a wintry evening. I've been greeted nicely and the guy took my coat. The food was very tasty and the spices are just the good quality. It's really good restaurant and it's recommended for indian food lovers specially the curries. Money wise, it's fairly good.
The Best Restaurant in Nottingham.
This resturant is one of the best in nottingham. This is quality dining and posh food. The food is really expensive, but is the best in nottingham for eating out.
It was really interesting, the modern european food was excellent, the way it is situated and reflect old time memory is fabulous. Simple and stylish. Service is wonderful and very very friendly. i enjoyed my time being there.
too expensive for me as the credit crunch has left us dining in places like frankie and bennys but the food is good with a good service. if it is hot avoid going here as no ventilation and you cook as well.
Very good Indian food served in a modern contemporary restaurant. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is always very relaxed. The owners have several restaurants including another by the same name in Leicester.
this restaurant is good and it is very expensive ............................
The Best Restaurant in Nottingham.
have only been for the sunday lunch menu was lovely and very good value for money i would go again and recommend to anyone

"It's time, it's the right thing to do," Gov. Christine Gregoire said Wednesday as she introduced legislation to legalize same-sex marriage in the state.
It was clearly an emotional day for Gregoire, who is in her final year in office and who up to now has publicly opposed gay marriage. Indeed, she let it be known that since being elected she has struggled privately with this issue.
"I have not liked where I have been for seven years," she said Wednesday at an event with several gay marriage supporters to announce her proposal. "I have sorted it out in my head and in my heart, and what's more important to me is, I believe in equality and respect of all citizens."
Her struggle, she said, was her religion. She's a practicing Catholic, a church that doesn't support gay marriage.
The bill that she is proposing would allow same sex couples the right to get marriages licenses in the state.
In 2009, she supported a ballot measure deemed "everything but marriage" that ensured same-sex domestic partners the same rights as heterosexual married couples. That's the law now.
"Some say domestic partnerships are the same as marriage," the governor said Wednesday. "That's a version of the discriminatory separate but equal argument of the past."
The governor announced what she called historic legislation to legalize same-sex marriage.
"Our gay and lesbian families face the same hurdles as heterosexual families—making ends meet, choosing what school to send their kids to, finding someone to grow old with, standing in front of friends and family and making a lifetime commitment," Gregoire said.
"For all couples, a state marriage license is very important. It gives them the right to enter into a marriage contract in which their legal interests, and those of their children, if any, are protected by well-established civil law."
But opponents are clearly gearing up for a fight against gay marriage.
"Marriage is about pro-creation," state Sen. Dan Swecker, R-Centralia, said. "Marriage is about producing and providing for the next generation. That's only done between one man and one woman."
Supporters admit they don't yet have the votes in Olympia to pass a same-sex marriage bill. They will need at least a few Republicans to sign on, since some of the more conservative Democrats are still opposed to gay marriage.If the bill is approved by the Legislature, Washington would become the seventh state in the country to legalize gay marriage.
The Legislature begins its 2012 session on Monday and is targeted to adjourn around March 8.

Pemayangtse Monastery
Popular for its monastery, the second oldest monastery in Sikkim, Pemayangtse is located about 107 km west of Gangtok. At an elevation of 5840 ft, the town has the backdrop of snow-capped mountains and valleys with dense forests cover. Pemayangtse means 'perfect sublime lotus' and it is believed to symbolize one of the four retes (a network of cells) in the human body.
Pemayangtse Monastery is the main tourist attraction of the town. Despite being over 300 years old, the monastery is in excellent condition and is well maintained by the monks. At elevation of over 6500 ft, the monastery is a three-storied structure with several statues including those of Padmasambhava (Lotus Born).
The first level of the monastery has beautiful sculptures, paintings and ancient scrolls along with the notable statue of Padmasambhava's eight incarnations with the seven layered wooden structure depicting the heavenly abode of Guru Rimpoche.
The main prayer hall of the monastery is a huge room. The statues near the entrance of the monastery are exquisitely carved and have amazing attention to detail. There is a garden adjacent to the monastery which is well maintained.
Designed and founded by Lama Lhatsun Chempoway, the monastery in Pemayangtse was originally built as a crypt but it was later expanded. Earthquakes in 1913 and 1960 ruined the town and the monastery but they were rebuilt and have been renovated many times since. The monastery is home to the monks who are sworn to celibacy. These monks are given the title of 'ta-tshang'.
The monastery is also the starting point of the 46 km long Dzongri trekking trail through the dense forests in Khangchendzonga National Park. This trekking trail is considered to be the most popular in Sikkim. You can also visit the ruins of Rabdentse that are located near the town.

Esther Rolle (1920-1998) and Bern Nadette Stanis go over a "Good Times" script together in 1975. Photo: Isaac Sutton of Ebony.
Live Long and Prosper! and Happy 81st Birthday Nichelle Nichols! I was named after this beautiful singer, dancer and actress who is, of course, best known for her groundbreaking role as Lt. Uhura on 'Star Trek.' This photo is a screen grab from a 'Star Trek,' episode that aired on November 22, 1968, 'Plato's Stepchildren.' Photo: CBS via Getty Images.
This is a screen cap I took of the brilliant actor and director Ivan Dixon (1931-2008) with non other than Cicely Tyson on Bill Cosby's groundbreaking television series "I Spy" in 1965. Mr. Dixon played an awesome, cocky, politically-incorrect American athlete who defects to China, ends up regretting it and needs the help of Dr. Cosby's "Alexander Scott" and Robert Culp's "Kelly Robinson" to return home to the United States. Ms. Tyson portrays his fiance, an African princess named Princess Amara. The Harlem-born Mr. Dixon is best known for his work on the classic television series "Hogan's Heroes" and the beautiful film "Nothing But A Man with Abbey Lincoln in 1964. Mr. Dixon was also an accomplished director. His work as a director includes "The Spook Who Sat by the Door" in 1973 and several television series, including "The Waltons," "Magnum P.I." "Quincy" and "The Rockford Files." Thank you SO much for your interest and enthusiasm about my upcoming book!

Actress Esther Rolle (1920-1998) trying on a dress the Joseph Magnin store in Beverly Hills in 1974. Best known as Florida Evans on "Good Times," Ms. Rolle was born to Bahamian immigrant parents in Pompano Beach, Florida, the 10th of 18 children. Inspired by two of her sisters who were also actresses (Rosanna Carter and Estelle Evans, who appeared in "To Kill a Mockingbird") she moved to New York when she was 18 years old to begin a career in writing before she was talked into acting. She was also a dancer and performed with the Asadata Dafora troupe for twelve years before becoming a founding member of the Negro Ensemble Company. She also attended several colleges, most notably Spelman, and was a member of Zeta Phi Beta sorority. When asked about portraying a variety of maids throughout her career, Ms. Rolle told People magazine in 1990, "I'm glad to take on the role of a domestic because many of your black leaders, your educators, your professionals came from domestic parents who made sacrifices to see that their children didn't go through what they did. But, I don't play Hollywood maids, the hee-hee kind of people who are so in love with their madam's children they have no time for their own." Ms. Rolle was particularly concerned about black images and Hollywood and she was not shy about speaking up. She left her most famous role on "Good Times" in protest to what she thought was the increasing buffoonery of the J.J. character. She told People in that same 1990 interview, "I told the producers, 'I did not agree to do a clown show for you to degrade young black men. I ruffle a lot of feathers. And I'm also selective—that makes you a troublemaker. But so be it. I laid a cornerstone for black actors, and that makes me happy."

One of my favorite Dorothy pics. Did you know that she and Nat "King" Cole pitched ideas to networks about doing a television sitcom together? They had a few angles, including one where they played a "small-time pair of married performers" who went through all kinds of ('50s sitcom-ish) scenarios as they climbed the ladder to success. They were turned down all over town. Quelle surprise!

Georgia Carr was a singer, actress and eventual entrepreneur. Born Mary Louise Thomas in Los Angeles on June 20, 1925, she held multiple jobs (most famously as a secretary) and attended the University of California in Los Angeles as she tried to build her singing career. She was singing at the Club Royale in San Diego when Stan Kenton saw her and, according to the August 20, 1953 cover story on her in JET, "started her on a career that was destined to hit the big time." According to JET, it was Mr. Kenton who suggested that she change her name to Georgia Carr. In short order, she was booked in popular clubs like Birdland and La Vie En Rose in New York and recorded a few modest hits, including "Softly" and I'm Not Gonna Let You In." She also had a radio show at one time on New Yorks WOV called "Carr-fare." The most interesting piece of information I came across regarding Ms. Carr was from a Chicago Defender newspaper article from January 29, 1963. The article said Ms. Carr "possess beauty, personality, "class," and a warm, husky voice of intimate styling" and noted that she was being "sought for a tour of the Orient, which would take her to Manila, Tokyo and Hong Kong." Ms. Carr told the paper that she would probably turn down the tour in favor of a new business where she was vice president in charge of sales. It was called American Negro Commercials, Inc. and they wanted to make "television and theatrical commercials utilizing Negro actors and models." Ms. Carr is quoted as saying, "There is no reason why our actors and actresses can't do commercials for major companies which sell their products on the general market. I am more excited by this project than anything I have ever done." I have no idea what became of American Negro Commercials - but I will find out! In later years, Ms. Carr apparently owned a catering company with her sister. A 1971 article in the Baltimore Afro-American newspaper described a reception in honor of the pianist Bobby Short where a "black-owned catering firm owned by singer Georgia Carr and her sister served memorable cuisine." Ms. Carr died in Los Angeles at the age of 46 of a stroke on July 4, 1971.

The centrosome coordinates formation of the microtubule network, a key component of the mammalian cytoskeleton. Aside from its supporting role in separating genetic material during cell division, the centrosome facilitates the formation of cilia (ciliogenesis) in non-dividing and differentiated cells. Cilia may be motile or non-motile, participating in a range of physiological activities including mucociliary transport, hearing, vision and kidney filtration processes. Ciliopathies occur when cells fail to undergo ciliogenesis or when cilia are improperly formed, affecting all of these functions to varying degrees. While there is increasing emphasis on the genetic factors contributing to these ciliopathies, many proteins involved in the cilia formation program remain elusive. The use of gene knockdown and functional assays are indispensable tools in determining how various proteins contribute to the onset of ciliopathies, ultimately laying the foundation for the development of future gene- and drug-therapy options.

Friday November 8, 2013
Now Martin is helping other veterans cope with their own addictions and mental health issues as he mentors clients going through the Jefferson County Veterans Treatment Court.
Veterans Treatment Court is a voluntary program, much like Drug Courts in Kentucky, where veterans with certain types of criminal charges can participate in intensive treatment for substance abuse and/or serious mental health issues. Qualified veterans who have committed felony or misdemeanor charges go into the program for 18 months of monitoring and treatment.
"I know what these guys are going through," Martin said.
Each week after veterans in the program appear before District Court Judge David Holton, mentors take the participants aside to talk to them about any issues, problems or concerns they may have. The mentors are there to provide a "real world" ear to listen and provide support and guidance.
Martin said after 25 years of sobriety, he hopes he can offer participants hope that things can improve. As a Vietnam veteran, who served in the Army, Martin said he can understand the types of experiences the participants have had while in the military and the struggles they face now.
The court, which was established earlier this year and was the first of its kind in Kentucky, offers veterans help with both substance abuse and mental health treatment, works with them to find jobs and housing, and requires them to regularly check in with the court.
Currently, there are about a dozen participants in the court, which can accommodate about 25 to 30.
Several partners have come together to work on the program, including the local judiciary, the Administrative Office of the Courts, the Robley Rex VA Medical Center, Legal Aid, Community Corrections, Louisville Metro Police, the Commonwealth Attorney's office and the County Attorney's office.
One of the critical elements of the program is the mentors, said Sonny Hatfield, a veterans justice outreach specialist with the VA.
"Service members have a bond and camaraderie with one another that is hard to replicate," Hatfield said. "They are the ones who as a battle buddy/wing man encourage and assist with a veteran being able to hold up to the rigors of treatment and the demands of the court and the expectations that veterans often times place on themselves."
Ray Feinberg just signed up to volunteer as a mentor with the court. While he has worked with addiction recovery groups through the VA, Feinberg said this opportunity to work with court participants is very exciting because of its potential to help people turn their lives around.
A recovering alcoholic and Army veteran, Feinberg said he has relied on peer support in his own recovery so he understands the value.
"It makes the peer more comfortable talking to someone who's been there," Feinberg said. "It gives that feeling that it is achievable."

Nehemiah 8: 5 - 8 (NIV): 5 Ezra opened the book. All the people could see him because he was standing above them; and as he opened it, the people all stood up. 6 Ezra praised the LORD, the great God; and all the people lifted their hands and responded, "Amen! Amen!" Then they bowed down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground. 7 The Levites--Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan and Pelaiah--instructed the people in the Law while the people were standing there. 8 They read from the Book of the Law of God, making it clear and giving the meaning so that the people could understand what was being read.
This happened in about 450 BC. The Jews had been taken captive in 605 BC by Babylon. But Persia defeated Babylon in 539 BC and King Cyrus had released the Jews to go home to Jerusalem. There they rebuilt the temple in about 25 years and rebuilt the wall around the city in an amazing 52 days.
Now, Nehemiah comes, and he and the priest, Ezra, assemble the people and read God's Word to them. The chapter says Ezra read from early morning until noon and the people stood and listened attentively, saying "Amen", and then bowing before God in respect.
Ezra is using "expository preaching". He read the scripture, then exposed its meaning. This is the kind of preaching we need today. We need preachers to read God's Word and make it clear. Preachers need to emphasize the Bible and not their opinions. Preachers need to emphasize what God's Word says and not spend their time in the pulpit telling personal stories. Stories are good for illustration, but our stories must support the truth of the scripture -- and not the other way around. The power for revival and repentance is found in God's Word. Churches must stick to it and teach it. We have too many Christians who do not know the scripture. We, as a church, must teach the word.
