Ralph Lemon's Come home Charley Patton was reviewed by Judith Ingber, for the Dance Critics Association newsletter. Ingber recommends "this most rewarding and unorthodox book."
We thank Dance Critics Association [www.dancecritics.org] for allowing us to post this review.
From the review essay:
"If you like dance diaries in print you'll especially love Ralph Lemon's latest book Come home Charley Patton (2013). Years ago I was thrilled to delve into Martha Graham's diary The Notebooks of Martha Graham when it was published (NY: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1973) and likewise, later, with Merce Cunningham's Changes: Notes on Choreography (NY: Something Else Press, 1968). I assume a dancer's diary will be snatches of this and that, providing illuminations both visual and articulate about the choreographer's process and works. That's true only in part for Ralph's new book. Note I'll call him Ralph in the following comments–how could I call him Lemon when he grew up in Minneapolis like I did (though admittedly some years later)? I remember him dancing in the Nancy Hauser Dance Company and then seeing his works for the New Dance Ensemble including "Boundary Water" (1984), "Waiting for Carnival" (1986) and a wonderful solo for dancer Luc Ball?
Ralph's book is much more than diary entries about his dances—here we get historical context for his stories, images he has photographed and his own sketches (some in black and white and others in color). It's published by Wesleyan University Press, the famous dance press, and someone there loves him because they've also published his previous books (Persephone, his 1996 dance ode to spring which is a small book collaboration with photographer Philip Trager; Geography: art/race/exile, published in 2000; and Tree in 2004). Until one reads this latest book, his role as choreographer/dancer seemed most important. But here one sees his many facets—story teller, researcher, painter, and photographer.
For me, Martin Luther King Day each year calls up a spring day in 1968, walking up New York City's Broadway near Columbia University, with radio news blaring onto the street from countless shops and cars that King had been shot. This year the inauguration of Barak Hussein Obama as America's 57th president fell on Martin Luther King Day. I spent the day reading Ralph's book with time out for watching the televised inauguration ceremonies. In a way, it struck me that his book is an ode to Martin Luther King, for Ralph interweaves the Civil Rights Movement with his own and his family stories."

In this paper, an economic model was constructed to determine the optimal wolf population and distribution across the Northern Rocky Mountains. Both ecological and economic concepts were incorporated in an implicitly spatial social welfare maximization problem. This interdisciplinary model relies on multiple data sources, including current wolf population and distribution information, opportunity cost to local landowners, and contingent valuation studies to determine willingness-to-pay for wolves. Economic models tend to externalize ecological concerns and ecological models often omit the complex human dimensions of conservation policy. Accordingly, this model can serve as a guide for integrating best practices from both fields. The model presented here is sufficiently general to apply to wolves in other ecosystems and to other highly interacting species such as beavers and bison. The Northern Rocky Mountain wolf was used as an example of how this economic model works, but this model can be applied far more broadly.

Hey. It seems that expound doesn't come with a category.php template, and thus by default, when visiting a category in wordpress while using expound, there are no categories listed and the formatting of the posts listed are improper (newlines not registered).
I tried to copy category.php from Twenty Thirteen theme to no avail.
It did give me a list of categories, but the placement is incorrect and the formatting of the posts are still bad.
Screenshot (please ignore the ugly background color etc, it's random).
So again, the code is from Twenty Thirteen theme, except I use 'wp_list_categories' inside <h1> tags </h1>.

What's New
October 8, 2015
June 22, 2015
At the 2015 CCMA conference in Boise, Idaho, June11-13, Food Co-op Initiative was excited to present the award for 2015 Startup of the Year to Durham Co-op Market (DCM). This award is given to a startup that opened in the last twelve months, after showing careful planning, persistence, and and the skill to bring an idea to fruition as a retail grocery store . Located in Durham, North Carolina, DCM opened in March with overwhelming support from the community. Commitment, perseverance, and patience paid off! Since 2007 this community has never lost sight of their vision and have been rewarded with a beautiful new store that is exceeding expectations. Sales in the first few weeks ran up to 50% above projections and 500 new member-owners joined in their first 6 weeks. Durham's general manager Leila Wolfrum was at CCMA to accept the award on the co-op's behalf. She cited the waves of volunteers, board members, community organizations, and staff that worked though the ups ad downs of a startup in an urban area. When the first site selection failed to prove feasible, they had to shift gears and reboot the project. The result is an amazing store that will serve a large community with integrity. You can read more about Durham Co-op Market and several other new co-ops that opened their doors in the last twelve months in the upcoming issue of Cooperative Grocer. This award is spondored by Food Co-op Initiative, CDS Consulting, and Northcountry Cooperative Development Fund.
June 19, 2014
We are delighted to announce that Co-op Market Grocery & Deli in Fairbanks, AK is the winner of this year's Startup of the Year award. Lauded for its leadership, retail excellence, and commitment to building the local economy, Co-op Market beat out twelve other co-ops that opened storefronts since June of 2013.
The Startup the Year award recognizes achievement by a retail grocery cooperative in organizing and opening a successful co-op grocery store. The award--and shiny grocery cart (above)--was presented to Co-op Market's General Manager, Mary Christensen, at the annual Consumer Cooperative Management Association conference in Madison, WI in front of a crowd of 500 cooperative managers, staff, board members, and consultants.
The 6,000 square-foot store opened in March 2013 and was brought to fruition by the grassroots efforts of city residents as part of a broader downtown revitalization strategy. Today Co-op Market has 2,680 member owners, 20 employees, and its sales for 2014 are on track to reaching $2.8 million.
Co-op Market has experienced strong growth, far exceeding sales predictions, despite the many challenges of operating in Alaska. Co-op Market sits in a food desert tract where 46% of low-income residents lack access to a healthy food store within a half-mile. This new store serves a community with a high percentage of Native Alaskan households, and one where the average income is only 54% of the median. The Co-op emphasizes local products, providing a retail outlet for small farmers, ranchers, fishers, and producers in the region to sell to their own community.
As Stuart Reid, FCI Executive Director, presented this year's award, he stated, "Fairbanks' Co-op Market is a role model for how an organized community can work together to create a cooperative business to meet its needs. While more distant than any startup in modern history, it took advantage of the full support that we and the food co-op community have to offer, inspiring fellow Alaskan communities to do the same." There are currently three new food co-op initiatives organizing in the state.
There are currently 113 food co-op in development across the nation, and 70 have opened in the past five years, totaling over $155 million in annual sales, 1,006 new jobs, and 88,000 members. Forty more have stated their intention of opening in the next 18 months.
The past year's store openings include:
- Co-op Market Grocery and Deli (Fairbanks, AK)
- Second Kitchen Co-op (Boulder, CO)
- Near East Side Co-op (Columbus, OH)
- Honey Creek Market (Plain, WI)
- Hometown Harvest (Mitchell, NE)
- All Things Local Co-op (Amherst, NE)
- Waimanalo Market Co-op (Waimanalo, HI)
- Doylestown Food Co-op (Doylestown, PA)
- Purple Porch (South Bend, IN)
- Local First Grocery (Manitou Springs, CO)
- Dubuque Food Co-op (Dubuque, IA)
- Orcas Food Co-op (Eastsound, WA)
The Startup of the Year award is sponsored by CDS Consulting Co-op and coordinated by Food Co-op Initiative.
September 10, 2013
Food Co-op Initiative today announced Seed Grants totaling $100,000 have been awarded to ten communities organizing co-ops across the US, to be matched with equal amounts in local investments. These grants combine a $10,000 cash award with in-kind services from FCI's experts including technical assistance, on-site training, and continued mentoring. The Initiative received 38 applications—a record high—requesting just under $380,000.
Who were these ten co-ops, and what made them stand out from the crowd?
"This year's grantees have all of the essential elements we look for in a startup," says Stuart Reid, FCI Executive Director. "They demonstrate community support, a balance of cooperative ideals with practical business requirements, commitment to best practices, and potential for retail success." Reid says that the caliber of applications has risen significantly over the three years FCI has offered Seed Grants, which suggests the program and the Initiative's early support services are positively impacting food co-op development. "These co-ops epitomize what is possible with strong leadership and access to professional support and guidance."
Food Co-op Initiative congratulates our grant recipients!
What follows is a very brief profile of each co-op.
Maynard, MA, is an economically diverse community with a walkable downtown and a small-town feel. Assabet Village Co-op will be the only grocery store. They've met with strong community interest since their first meeting in February 2012. Like most of our grantees, Seed funds will be used to finance a market and feasibility study, along with training for the board.
Baraboo Cooperative in Baraboo, WI, combines the concept of a consumer co-op (owned by the shoppers) with a worker co-op (in which employees buy equity). Their vision is a 7,000 sq. ft. full service grocery store with unparalleled service and democratic control. This group wowed us with how far they've come in just a year of organizing.
BisMan Co-op aims to serve Bismark and Mandan, ND, with a 3,000 sq. ft. store. There is little to no access to local or organic foods in the area. They plan to use funds to support their membership campaign.
Before deciding to create Eastwood Market & Café in Louisville, KY, organizers contacted over 275 commercial grocery chains, asking them to look at opening a store in the area. A market study indicates significant potential for a 16,000 sq. ft. natural foods grocery and café. The Eastwood organizers have strongly engaged the co-op community as they have moved forward.
Hudson Grocery Cooperative aims to bring back a grocery store to downtown Hudson, WI. They have excelled at connecting with local business and the co-op community.
Local Roots' market study shows good potential for a 5,000 sq. ft. store in Buffalo, MN. Their store will be an outlet for the many organic farms in the area. "Not only will Local Roots be a store," they tell us, "It will also be an education center, a community center, and an incubator for small businesses to get their start."
The Manchester Food Co-op currently has 755 members. They hope to open a 15,000 sq. ft. store in populous Manchester, NH. They are preparing to launch a capital campaign and hire a project manager.
Paso Robles Food Co-op in Paso Robles, CA, is perhaps the "youngest" co-op ever to be awarded a Seed Grant. They began organizing in spring, 2013. Careful focus on the Four Cornerstones in Three Stages development model has led them to build an exceptional foundation of leadership and community support in such a short time.
Richmond Food Co-op in Richmond, VA, hopes to open a 10,000 sq. ft. store. They've led a strong membership campaign and will hire a project manager this fall.
The strong organizing team at South Philly Co-op in Philadelphia, PA, currently has nearly 500 members despite working in an area with low household incomes and limited site options. They are working closely with existing Philadelphia co-ops.
June 17, 2013
Food Co-op Initiative is now accepting applications for grants up to $10,000 for development of new grocery co-ops. The Seed Grant program provides a cash award along with proven resources to help organizations achieve success. Food Co-op Initiative advisers will work closely with awardees throughout their organizing process, including making at least one in-person visit to the community.

If you are thinking about applying for a grant from FCI this summer, please plan on attending our how-to webinar, July 16 at 1PM Central. RSVP.
Food Co-op Initiative's Seed Grant program is designed to streamline the startup process to foster the maximum number of successful, sustainable co-ops. These competitive grants must be matched by the co-op with funds raised locally. Grants may be used for payment to professional consultants; registration fees and expenses to attend training opportunities; and initiatives supporting member recruitment, capital-raising, community outreach, or other aspects of organizing the co-op.
In 2012, Food Co-op Initiative awarded $100,000 to 14 organizations in 12 states. Grants are funded by the USDA, Blooming Prairie Foundation, and the kind support of cooperators nationwide. The deadline for applications to be received is August 1st.
June 11, 2013
What happens when the community purchases an existing grocery store and turns it into a cooperatively owned business? What challenges are encountered, and how can this kind of project best be accomplished? A new case study by Food Co-op Initiative explores two such projects in detail.
One is Placerville Co-op in Placerville, California. The other is Old Creamery Co-op in Cummington, Massachusetts.
Download the PDF to learn about Placerville Co-op and Old Creamery Co-op's conversion experiences.
March 29, 2013
A draft schedule of startup-focused workshops to be offered at this year's Consumer Cooperative Management Association conference has been released. As in past years, Food Co-op Initiative curates this track of workshops to ensure maximum benefit to emerging co-ops.
CCMA, to be held June 6-8 in Austin, TX, is the food co-op industry's premier event. Each year, hundreds of co-op managers, directors, educators, and consultants, plus their national allies gather for speakers and trainers from inside and outside the food co-op sector.
You can download a schedule of workshops aimed at startups here.
Visit the CCMA website to learn more and register for the conference.
January 30, 2013
Third Tuesdays at 1 PM Central, Food Co-op Initiative will be offering a series of webinars on a variety of topics relevent to startups. Expect in-depth information from subject-matter experts and a chance to get your questions answered. A full schedule of topics is available on our Events page.
December 20, 2012
Ever wonder When should we incorporate? How soon can we plan on opening? or How big should our store be?
We've been updating our FAQS page to reflect recent inquiries. There are many more questions we hope to add over the next few months, but you may enjoy what we have so far. Take a look!
Got questions? Drop us a line.
December 4, 2012
The mayor spoke at the co-op's ribbon cutting, and it seemed like the whole town turned out to celebrate. The local paper wrote excitedly about the new grocery store. The future seemed bright.
Nine months later, the fledgling store was begging members for additional cash infusions. Before its second anniversary, the co-op closed its doors.
This story is a familiar one, and we all know the unfortunate reality. Even with the resilient foundation of community ownership, not every new food co-op will survive. As we enjoy unprecedented growth in startup efforts, it is important that we understand why some co-ops fail so that others can avoid their mistakes.

Anthropogenic input of mercury (Hg) into the environment has elevated risk to fish and wildlife, particularly in northeastern North America. Investigations into the transfer and fate of Hg have focused on inhabitants of freshwater aquatic ecosystems, as these are the habitats at greatest risk for methylmercury (MeHg) biomagnification. Deviating from such an approach, we documented MeHg availability in a terrestrial montane ecosystem using a suite of insectivorous passerines. Intensive and extensive sampling of Bicknell's thrush (Catharus bicknelli) indicated significant heterogeneity in MeHg availability across 21 mountaintops in northeastern North America. Southern parts of the breeding range tended to be at greater risk than northern parts. Mean blood Hg concentrations for Bicknell's thrush at 21 distinct breeding sites ranged from 0.08 to 0.38 ug/g (ww) and at seven Greater Antillean wintering sites ranged from 0.03 to 0.42 ug/g (ww). Overall concentrations were significantly greater in wintering than in breeding areas. Mercury exposure profiles for four passerine species on Mt. Mansfield, Vermont indicated greatest MeHg uptake in Bicknell's thrush and yellow-rumped warbler (Dendroica coronata) and lowest in blackpoll warbler (Dendroica striata) and white-throated sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis). The MeHg and total Hg ratio in blood in these four species was nearly 1:1. There was no correlation between blood and feather Hg concentrations in breeding Bicknell's thrush, in part because of apparent retention of winter Hg body burdens, within-season variation of MeHg availability, and confounding factors such as influences from age. Adult thrushes had significantly higher concentrations of feather Hg than did young-of-the-year. Although individual patterns of inter-year feather Hg concentrations were disordered, some individuals exhibited bioaccumulation of MeHg. Female blood Hg concentrations were significantly lower than males', in part because females have additional depurating mechanisms through eggs. Older male Bicknell's thrushes that breed in New England are therefore likely at greatest risk. Mechanisms for Hg methylation in montane areas without standing water are not yet fully understood. However, recent studies indicate that MeHg is present in forest tree leaves and leaf detritus; saturated soils and other moist microhabitats may also contribute to MeHg availability. Our finding of a correlation between regional litterfall Hg flux patterns and Bicknell's thrush blood Hg concentrations demonstrates on-site availability of MeHg. Further investigations into MeHg availability in montane environments are recommended to assess risk to insectivorous passerines, particularly the Bicknell's thrush.

HCLT would like to thank you all for your support this season and through the years. We've been around for a long time! Please visit our facebook page and share your memories of productions or experiences in theater with us. We love to hear your stories.
As we plan for our 61st season, we look forward to bringing you stories that make you laugh, make you think, touch your heart, and make you want to tap your feet or get up and dance! If you have a suggestion for us, send it to us via Facebook and we'll consider it.
Shrek The Musical, Four Little Girls, and A Christmas Carol were huge undertakings, and we had to really work as a team to bring those stories to our community. We are grateful for the help of every single person who worked so diligently with us either onstage or behind the scenes this season, and for the support of our season members, contributors, and to Halifax County, the Town of South Boston, and the Virginia Commission for the Arts for their financial support.
It's time to say goodbye to several board members who have helped us to produce some really outstanding productions over the past several years. Devin Hall, Cyndi Overby, Catherine Glass, LaTonya Sadler and Lisa Roach: we'll miss you, and we wish you well. We welcome the creative talents of Amanda Shepherd, Kelly Crawford, Lisa Burton and Jennifer Sydnor to our board.
Our Current HCLT Board:
President: Sandy Slayton
Treasurer: Becky Donner
Secretary: Ashley Smith
Board Members: Amanda Sheppherd, Greg Donner, Jennifer Sydnor, Kasey Rising, Kelly Crawford, Sarah Mandel, Kenny Carr, Lisa Burton, Sharon Brogden, Shane Brogden
Our 60th Anniversary Season!
Our 60th Season Directors: Becky Donner, Kasey Rising, and Chris Jones
Halifax County Little Theatre is 60 years strong! Since 1955, HCLT has been a vital part of our community, performing in elementary school gyms, the high school auditorium, various outdoor locations, restaurants, and for the past 10 years in the beautiful Chastain Theatre at The Prizery. For its 2015-2016 season, we showcased the Power of Theater with three productions that educated, enlightened, and entertained.
The November season opener was a joint production with The Prizery in honor of The Prizery's 10th Anniversary. HCLT and The Prizery worked together to bring back the first show produced in the theater: Alan Menken's musical version of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. This holiday classic was a must-see tradition with a large cast, haunting music, and a story that inspired. Veteran Director Chris Jones took charge of this production.
In February, Becky Donner directed a powerful piece that showcased a turbulent moment in American history. Four Little Girls: Birmingham 1963 brought into focus the realities of the Civil Rights movement by telling the stories of the four girls America mourned. As these four girls shared their everyday lives, the audience came to know these girls as young people with hopes and dreams and names. This moving drama was very well received by audiences who were touched by their story and were very grateful that we brought this story to our community. All four lead roles were played by young girls who had never performed with us, but we hope to see them back on stage soon! All in all, this show was seen by over 2,000 people!
Finally, for HCLT's spring production, we tackled the huge undertaking of bringing SHREK THE MUSICAL to the stage! Directed by Kasey Rising, this Broadway adaptation will brought great entertainment for the entire community. Adapted from the movie version, this play had all the fantastic characters remembered from the movie: Lord Farquad, Princess Fiona, Donkey, Pinocchio, The Gingerbread Man, and many more. Everyone loved our ogre! The music was joyous, and the jokes will kept the theatre full of laughter. The set was beautiful, the cast was outstanding, and we shared this live theatre experience with almost 1,000 elementary school students during 2 days of daytime performances.

text: Finisar Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. An earnings short-squeeze play in the communications equipment complex is Finisar ( FNSR), which is set to release numbers on Monday after the market close. This company designs, develops, manufactures, and markets optical subsystems and components that are used to interconnect equipment in short-distance local area networks, storage area networks, longer distance metropolitan area networks, fiber-to-the-home networks, cable television networks, and wide area networks. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Finisar to report revenue of $242.62 million on earnings of 21 cents per share. This company reported in line estimates last quarter after missing numbers in the prior quarter. In the third quarter profit dropped 52.7% to $8.9 million or 9 cents per share, from $18.8 million or 22 cents per share the year earlier, meeting analyst expectations. Revenue dropped 7.6% to $243 million from $263 million. >>4 Ways to Profit When Apple Hits $725 The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Finisar is very high at 15.9%. That means that out of the 89.57 million shares in the tradable float, 14.17 million shares are sold short by the bears. This is a large amount of bears involved in this stock, so if Finisar can report strong results and bullish forward guidance, then this stock could easily see a sizeable short-squeeze post-earnings. From a technical perspective, FNSR is currently trading below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. During the last four months, shares of FNSR have downtrended badly from a high of $23.50 to a recent low of $12.82 a share. During that sharp move lower, this stock has consistently made lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That said, shares of FNSR have bounced off $12.82 to its current price of around $14.50 a share. That bounce has pushed the stock within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade post-earnings. If you're bullish on FNSR, I would look for long-biased trades if after they report it manages to trigger a break out above its 50-day moving average of $15.97 a share with high-volume. Look for volume on that move that hits near or above its three-month average action of 2.4 million shares. If we get that action, then FNSR could easily trend higher back towards its 200-day moving average of $18.35 a share or possibly higher of the bulls gain full control of this stock post-earnings. I would simply avoid FNSR or look for short-biased trades after earnings the stock fails to trigger that near-term breakout, and then moves back below that major support level of $12.82 a share with high-volume. A move below $12.82 and then below its 52-week low of $12.26 would be very bearish for FNSR. Prev 4 of 6 Next

Forecasters: First light frost of fall may arrive Friday in Tuscaloosa
Clear skies, mid-60s predicted for UA-UT game on Saturday
Published: Wednesday, October 23, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 23, 2013 at 12:34 a.m.
The Tuscaloosa area could experience the first light frost of the season late Friday night or early Saturday morning, according to forecasts from the National Weather Service in Birmingham.
A high-pressure system coming off a large storm system in Canada will bring the colder air Friday to the eastern part of the country.
Right now, the lows are forecast to be between 32 and 34 degrees, said Aaron Gleason, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Birmingham.
Gleason said subfreezing temperatures could be just north of Tuscaloosa, while the expected lows could bring in the light frost.
"The freeze is a little more iffy because I have forecast temperatures right at freezing or just above," he said.
The first freeze in the Tuscaloosa area usually doesn't come until early November, but Gleason said that a frost in late October isn't unusual.
Temperatures leading up to Saturday will continue to cool down with lows on Thursday morning around 40, but the coldest weather won't arrive until late Friday night.
As for Saturday afternoon, clear skies and calm winds are expected for Saturday's football game between the University of Alabama and the University of Tennessee, which kicks off at 2:30 p.m. Gleason said the high would be right around 60 to 61 degrees, putting the game 15 degrees below Tuesday's highs. Overnight lows will be in the mid-30s, with highs in the mid-60s expected for Sunday.
Moving into next week, expect to see temperatures warming with highs Monday and Tuesday in the low 70s and lows in the upper 40s and lower 50s.

There are a few, the most popular are DynDNS and no-ip.com. If you want to integrate with your network and not install any software, see if your router or firewall natively supports dynamic DNS - most routers do these days. Some vendors only support some of the dynamic DNS services, that could help you narrow down your choices as well. With router integration, you just put in your account information and the router does all the work and updates the service when your IP changes - nothing to think about, nothing to install, which is always nice.
Once you have setup dyndns, you then need to add a CNAME entry for your DNS server, for example:
1) Register stormist.dyndns.org and make sure it resolve to the IP address of your pc.
2) Then add a CNAME pc.stormist.come that points to stormist.dyndns.org ( the pc part of the domain can be anything you choose)

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- Gov. Robert Bentley has called special elections for two seats in the Alabama House of Representatives.
Bentley announced Thursday that special primary elections in districts 74 and 104 are scheduled for Oct. 8. The special general election is scheduled for Dec. 3.
Bentley says if the major parties only have one candidate in either race, a primary won't be necessary and a general election will be held that day.
If a candidate doesn't receive a majority of votes in the primary, a runoff will be held Nov. 19, and the general election would be Jan. 14.
District 74 covers parts of Montgomery County and was occupied by Rep. Jay Love who resigned Aug. 1. District 104 covers areas of Mobile and was occupied by Rep. Jim Barton, who resigned Wednesday.

U.S. Joins Egyptian Protesters in Criticizing Suleiman's Offers
Egyptian Vice President Omar Suleiman said negotiations he has opened with opposition movements are the only alternative to the "chaos" of regime change, as the government's limited concessions drew criticism from protesters and the Obama administration.
"There will be no overthrow of the regime because this will lead to chaos, which will take the country into the unknown," Suleiman told local media chiefs yesterday, the official Middle East News Agency reported. The talks that began this week, involving the Muslim Brotherhood and other groups, "are the first way to achieve stability in the country and to get out of the current crisis peacefully."
In Washington, the Obama administration echoed the criticism of the protesters that Suleiman isn't responding quickly enough. The Egyptian government has yet to reach the "minimum threshold" of accomodating demands of the country's citizens, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said. Egyptian authorities must make "immediate and irreversible progress" toward a transition of power and expand the scope of negotiations, Gibbs said at today's briefing.
Tens of thousands filled Cairo's Tahrir Square yesterday in what may have been the largest turnout in two weeks of protests. Today's was smaller. Another major gathering is scheduled for Feb. 11, dubbed by protesters as a "Friday of Defiance."
'An Impasse'
Mubarak's refusal to quit immediately, an opposition demand, has created "an impasse," Shadi Hamid, director of research at the Brookings Institution's Doha Center, said today in an interview from Cairo on Bloomberg Television's"InBusiness."
"The protesters aren't going to back down, but it seems the Mubarak regime isn't going to back down either, so we have a problem," he said.
The country's bonds and credit default swaps have pared losses since Suleiman's negotiations began. Yields on Egypt's dollar bonds due in 2020 rose 20 basis points to 6.56 percent at 5:15 p.m. in Cairo, after reaching a record 7.21 percent on Jan. 31.
The central bank stepped in to buy Egyptian pounds yesterday, halting the currency's slide. It rose 1.3 percent, paring most of the previous two days' losses. The pound was little changed at 5.8805 to the dollar today. The stock market is due to reopen on Feb. 13 and banks including Citigroup Inc. are restoring services.
Chaos Feared
Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit said today that Mubarak won't Suleiman power and resign because he believes that would be unconstitutional and would "entail chaos."
"He has a constitutional responsibility to defend the constitution and to defend the national security of Egypt," he said in an interview on the PBS NewsHour broadcast.
Gheit also rejected Vice President Joe Biden's call yesterday to lift the so-called emergency law, in place for almost three decades, that gives the government broad powers to arrest people without charge, to detain prisoners indefinitely, to limit speech and to try suspects in special courts. Ending the law has been one of the demands of opposition groups, which regard that as a test of the government's willingness to open society.
"The issue of the emergency law as Vice President Biden stated yesterday, when I read it this morning, I was really amazed because right now, as we speak, we have 17,000 prisoners loose in the streets, out of jails that have been destroyed," Aboul Gheit said. "How can you ask me to sort of disband that emergency law while I'm in difficulty? Give me time, allow me to have control to stabilize the nation, to stabilize the state and then we would look into the issue."
Tahrir Square Scene
The numbers in Tahrir have swelled by late afternoon each day as Egyptians leave their workplaces to protest, some arriving directly from their offices in business attire, others bringing their families. Four stages have been erected there, with speakers blasting Egyptian music, the national anthem, chants to rouse the crowds, or news of the movement. The number of tents housing protesters overnight has grown, and donors have brought blankets, food and drink to those staying.
The Muslim Brotherhood, the largest opposition group, dismissed Suleiman's warning that the protests can't continue indefinitely. "This threat is rejected by the people, not just by us but the people on the street," Mohammed Morsey, a spokesman for the group, told reporters in Cairo today.
Many in the anti-government camp oppose the talks started by Suleiman, who has promised steps within a month toward a new constitution and free elections. A constitutional committee has agreed to amend six articles of the constitution, Al Arabiya television reported, without saying how it got the information.
Tunisia's Spark
The unrest in Egypt followed a revolt in Tunisia that toppled President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali on Jan. 14. Jordan, Algeria and Yemen have also had anti-government protests in recent weeks.
The Muslim Brotherhood is joined in the anti-Mubarak movement by the socialist Tagammu party, which is the largest opposition group in parliament, the Wafd party, and the National Association for Change, a movement that Nobel Peace Prize winner Mohamed ElBaradei helped set up last year. The Brotherhood is banned from politics in Egypt, and members have had to run for office as independents.
Former Foreign Minister Amre Moussa, now secretary-general of the Arab League, is being promoted as a future leader by at least two groups on Facebook, which has been used as a platform for opposition activists.
Arab League
"My 10-year mandate as secretary general of the Arab League ends next month. I don't intend to renew it," Moussa told the French newspaper in Le Monde in an interview published today. "I will therefore return to being an Egyptian citizen with all his liberties, responsibilities and duties. For the moment, I don't intend to say more."
ElBaradei, former head of the United Nations nuclear agency, returned to his homeland last month and says only that he "won't let the Egyptian people down" if asked to run for president.
Suleiman said the country's economic growth, which relies on tourism and foreign investment, may slow to 3.4 percent in the current fiscal year, from 5.1 percent. The government was predicting 6 percent growth before the political crisis.
U.S. Ties
Egypt has been one of the biggest recipients of U.S. aid since Mubarak came to power 30 years ago. The Obama administration has been pushing the government to negotiate with the opposition and begin immediately preparing for a transition of power.
The uncertainty over Egypt's political future has increased concern that efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will be dealt a setback, U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague said today during a tour of the region.
"Amidst the opportunity for countries like Tunisia and Egypt, there is a legitimate fear that the Middle East peace process will lose further momentum and be put to one side," Hague told the BBC.
When asked today to explain the group's position on the peace accord between Egypt and Israel, the Muslim Brotherhood said parliament has the right to reconsider treaties signed with other nations.
"As long as the international treaties were endorsed by the parliament, we respect those treaties," Mohamed Saad El-Katatni, a member of the group's top executive body, told reporters in Cairo. "It's the right of the people, through the parliament, to reconsider these treaties whenever they want."
Reject Peace Treaty
Katatni said that historically the Muslim Brotherhood has rejected the treaty with Israel.
Independent candidates from the Brotherhood won 88 seats of the 454 seats in the 2005 parliamentary elections, the strongest showing in its 85-year history. The mainstream Brotherhood group has renounced the use of arms to achieve its goals, prompting splits with factions that promote violence.
In a statement today, the Brotherhood said it does not "aspire to power" through the presidency or control of a majority in parliament.
"They are being very careful and cautious," according to Brookings' Hamid, who said he met today with some leaders of the group. "They know the international community is watching closely, and they don't want to frighten the U.S. in particular. They know that if they play a more visible role, if they have leadership aspirations, that's really going to get people scared in the West."
"They understand this is not their time yet," Hamid said, "and they just want to keep a low profile, at least for the foreseeable future."

The modifications in all socio-cultural, economic, technological or political backgrounds are affecting all features of the everyday life, forcing the individual to adapt along. Some of these modifications have made the life of the individual easier, whereas others ***** hardened it. Probably the most relevant examples in this instance ***** *****fered by the technological field. Innovations such as steam vacuums or dish washers have improved the quality of life, whereas personal computers and laptops (when used mainly f***** online communications ***** gaming) have damaged the relationship between parents and their offspring, further deepening the gap ***** generations.
***** list of positive ***** negative modifications which ***** affected the individual and the society is endless, but what must be, however, remembered ***** that most of these modifications are generated by the forces of globalization. Ultimately then, one should discuss ***** ***** in light of the contemporaneous society. Great emphasis has yet been placed on the topics ***** ***** and the specialized literature is filled with praises as well as disclaims. One way to address ***** issues of globalization is an analysis through the lens of a quote:
Globalisation and the resulting increase in competition harm people, as international companies play one government against another to get the best deal possible. Meanwhile, governments continu*****y ask for greater concessions from their citizens, demanding that they work harder and longer for less pay."
2. About Globalization
***** term globalization emerged during the 1980s ***** gained popularity ********** the 1990s, becoming a buzzword of the ***** society. A first attempt to define the term globalization "envisaged a situation in ***** in*****mation travelling at electronic speeds would replace language with instant non-verbal communication, creating an 'all-at-onceness.' [...] ***** globalized world is one of increasing ***************, where ***** media enable people in disparate locations to experience events simultaneously" (Ray, 2007, p.1). Justin Ervin and Zachary Smith (2008) strive to define the concept ***** globalization from a broader perspective, and in their venture, employ the fact ***** ***** individual is no longer isolated, but that he becomes ***** ***** the "actions of distant others" (p.2).
Globalization101 website *****s the concept as "a process of interaction and integration among ***** people, companies, and governments of different nations, a ***** driven by intern*****tional trade and investment ***** aided by information technology. This process h***** effects on the environment, on culture, on political systems, on economic development and prosperity, ***** on human physical ********** in societies around ***** world."
***** conclude the findings in the specialised *****, globalization could be simply def*****ed as a ***** in which *****form*****tion and practices transcend the national boundaries and manage to affect *****s in various geographic locations. To better explain, ***** ***** information could belong to the *****s of sociology, culture, economics, politics or ***** and ***** affect these particular fields in ***** country.
The f*****ces of globalization have generated numerous implications,

In fact, Christian professionals say you should receive prayer, counsel and training first if you believe God is stirring you to consider becoming a foster parent.

Perez-Pena's reporting has been hostile [2] toward the often-audacious Republican governor of New Jersey, and he appeared taken aback by Christie's positive Harvard reception:
Conservatives may see Harvard as the heart of liberal darkness, but on Friday it gave a warm, even enthusiastic reception to Gov. Chris Christie and his ideas on education overhaul.
Speaking to almost 200 students and staff members at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, the New Jersey governor drew rounds of applause with his talk of sharply limiting teacher tenure, rigorously evaluating teachers and administrators, curbing the power of teachers' unions and pledging to appoint more-conservative justices to the State Supreme Court.
Mr. Christie's first ovation came when he said, "The reason I'm engaging in this battle with the teachers' union is because it's the only fight worth having."
The ground he covered would be familiar to anyone who has watched the town hall-style forums in New Jersey that have made Mr. Christie a YouTube star. There, at least a few detractors usually show up to question him, and his policies and pugnacious statements can make even some supporters uncomfortable.
This marks the second time in five days [3]that a Times reporter has accused a mainstream Republican politician of employing "incendiary" language, a strong term the Times rarely if ever uses when talking of statements by inflammatory Democratic politicians like Rev. Al Sharpton or the defeated Democrat Rep. Alan Grayson. of Florida.
The tone of the session was polite and subdued, and the questions alternately supportive and wonkish. More than usual, Mr. Christie stayed away from incendiary language, though toward the end he loosened up and opened fire on the teachers' union ("a political thuggery operation").

Vietnam vet derides Black Ops release as "very tacky"
Vietnam veteran and Winnipeg resident Ron Parkes has hit out at the release of Black Ops on Remembrance Day.
"I think it is very tacky to include the distribution of a graphic war-based game like this during a week that we are supposed to be honouring those who have fallen to the conflicts this game depicts," Parkes told the Winnipeg Free Press, via Kotaku.
"Remembrance Day is not a consumer advocate's day and this company is clearly using the date as a marketing strategy."
Parkes spent three months in Vietnam in 1965; it was no picnic, he added.
"War is always a miserable experience and the movies or video games depicting these wars never really do catch how bad it really is," Parkes said.
"War is a whole different scenario then regular life. You live and breath it everyday you are there, and sometimes those memories, good and bad, still catch up to you."
Black Ops released earlier this week to large interest, with over 1 million logging into Xbox Live to play the game in the first 24 hours of release.

class=img_thumbleft>On Tuesday the San Francisco Bay Guardian posted athorough editorial
on therumors
) of a possible imminent merger between the Phoenix-basedNew Times
alternative weekly newspaper chain andVillage Voice Media
, which ownsCity Pages
: "If there's a grain of truth here, and VVM and New Times are in any sort of talks, the implications for the alternative press and for readers, advertisers, and employees in 18 cities are too serious for federal regulators to ignore." A spokeswoman for Village Voice Media, Jessica Bellucci, denied the rumors in the New York Sun onAugust 16
: "As far as I know, it's complete fiction." But recentpay cuts
at theVillage Voice
have fueled speculation to the contrary, and some anticipate the cookie-cutter layout and apolitical bent of a New Times Twin Cities.UPDATE 8/29/05
From the San Francisco Bay Guardian:"Internal Village Voice documents detail plans to create 18-paper alt-press chain."
For anyone who's ever wondered who owns City Pages, here's a brief history of the newspaper and its corporate parents so far...
Founded as Sweet Potato in 1979, City Pages was purchased in February 1997 by pet-supply magnate Leonard Stern (who had bought the Village Voice from Rupert Murdoch in 1985, 30 years after it was founded by Norman Mailer and two colleagues). In March 1997, Stern Publishing also bought, and closed, the Twin Cities Reader (the same day that REV 105 was taken off the air).
In 2000, Stern sold City Pages, along with the Village Voice, Seattle Weekly, L.A. Weekly, OC Weekly, Cleveland Free Times, and Long Island Voice (closed two days later) to Weiss, Peck & Greer, a New York-based investment management firm founded in 1970, which had been acquired in 1998 by the Dutch company the Robeco Group. At the time of the Village Voice sale, Robeco was 50-percent owned by Rabobank, which in 2001 fully took over Robeco. (Rabobank, in turn, is owned by 288 Dutch banks.) More recently, Weiss has been vertically absorbed into Robeco, and is now a division of Robeco Investment Management. That's the current majority owner of Village Voice Media. (A notice on the Weiss web page reads: "As of the end of September, 2005, this site will be discontinued.")
Weiss was part of a team of investors headed by Arthur Howe, former president of Montgomery Newspapers (which owns the Philadelphia City Paper), who was named president of the new Village Voice Media. Longtime Voice publisher and Stern Publishing president David Schneiderman became CEO of VVM. Other backers included Trimaran Fund II, which is essentially the investment arm of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, and Goldman Sachs. Around that same time, Weiss and Howe had acquired (or were in the process of acquiring) the Nashville Scene and the Lexington, Kentucky Ace Weekly, so both of those newspapers were folded into the chain until the Ace was sold to its editor-publisher in 2001.
According to a Village Voice report, Howe and company had "helped stave off a hostile takeover by New Times," which had been Stern's main competition. But Howe has since left his position, and the two chains have apparently grown more friendly. In 2002, Village Voice Media closed its Free Times in Cleveland in exchange for New Times closing its New Times Los Angeles, each competitor openly ceding one market to the other. The affair spurred a Justice Department antitrust probe, and both chains ended up settling with the U.S. in 2003. As a result, assets of the closed papers were sold off, and in no time the Free Times was back up and running, while the L.A. CityBeat has since emerged in Los Angeles. The Free Times was launched, oddly enough, in partnership with former Village Voice Media president Arthur Howe.
Obviously, there's more to this story, and most of this is background, so stay tuned, and post your responses here.

Cyril is a brown-shirted Zombie that is armed with two axes. Cyril is the predecessor to Johnny, who appears in both The House of the Dead 2 and The House of the Dead III. It is the second zombie encountered in the franchise, being first encountered in the entrance of Curien Manor. They take up to 4 bullets to kill and can be quite a problem on high difficulty.
Cyril has been a sort of Icon to THoTD series as he has been the idea for several different zombies in the game alongside Johnny; the face of THoTD2. These successors to Cyril include a zombie almost identical to Johnny from the fourth game; Trevor, who is the only axe - wielding zombie which is seen in several places without any weapons.
Bestiary OverviewEdit
Like any other undead being within the game, Cyril has green slime on his right portion cheek. His eyes are white and his skin is blue. His choice of weapons are two axes which can be used to attack by close range or by throwing at distances.
- Cyril makes a cameo in the 2012 animated Walt Disney Studios film, Wreck-It Ralph.
