Smart-Review Commentary: The new HC-V720V is the successor to last year's highly rated HC-700V. As with last year's model, this model has a large 1/2.33″ high sensitivity imaging sensor and a fast f1.8 lens to perform better in low light situations. Its 5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S. + optical image stabilization will keep your video from blurring, even in low light. A new feature is built-in WIFI (802.11b/g/n), which allows you to wirelessly transmit your video from your camcorder to the internet. You can also control your camcorder from your smartphone, tablet, or laptop. The 60 frames/second recording mode will give you smoother and more lifelike HD video, especially for fast moving action like sports. A rarity on inexpensive camcorders is an external microphone jack, which will provide you with many options to get better audio to go with the exceptional video of this camcorder. The resolution of the 3.0-inch LCD screen has doubled from last year, making it easier for you to compose your video. As with last year's model, this is an excellent low priced and feature packed HD camcorder. The Panasonic V720k is a Smart-Review top pick for 2013.

Security Tips
Here are 6 things you can do to help keep your account safe:
- Pick a strong password. Use a combination of at least six numbers, letters and punctuation marks (like ! and &). It should be different from other passwords you use elsewhere on the internet.
- Change your password regularly, especially if you see a message from Instagram asking you to do so. During automated security checks, Instagram sometimes recovers login information that was stolen from other sites.

As much as I love travelling and exploring the world, I've always found it difficult to maintain roots & feel myself at home. I started this blog & my Youtube channel in part as my work-in-progress to change that. See you around!

Railroad Crossing
Sinful Words
Author's infos
Gender: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A
Posted Sat 31st of January 2004
They were coming home from the football game, and to avoid traffic, Tracy suggested a back road, and Michael, trusting his girlfriend of over 6 months, turned off from the congested main road onto a 2 lane, yet straightaway road. As the lights in his rearview mirror faded into the background, Tracy slid her hand across the console, her fingertips finding his knee, bent as his foot pressed against the accelerator, causing Michael's muscles to involuntarily press harder, increasing the car's speed. She rounded her hand to his inner thigh, leaning her body toward him, her full breasts pressing through her blouse against his arm as she pressed her lips against the soft skin of the side of his neck.
Michael began to tremble, feeling his cock beginning to swell under his jeans as her hand slowly, teasingly, made its way along his thigh. Letting out a soft moan, he removed his hand from the gearshift, and laced his fingertips around her thigh, slipping his hand slowly underneath her silken skirt. Tracy's legs began to quiver in anticipation as her legs parted, inviting Michael's tender caresses between them as her hand rounded up, cupping her palm against his cock, it beginning to pulse through his jeans. His fingertips made their way upward, grazing along her inner thigh, reaching between them, he discovered Tracy was wearing nothing underneath her skirt as his fingers grazed softly thru her wet curled hair above her folds. Tracy moaned loudly, her fingers trembling as they reached the button of his jeans, unzipping them slowly, feeling his cock instinctively spring out from them.
Right at that moment...Michael, barely having composure to keep eye on the road, noticed red flashing lights up ahead, began to slow the car down, they arriving at a train crossing, which... with impeccable timing, a train was crossing. Tracy bit her lower lip as the car came to a steady stop, then smiled at Michael as she unfastened her seat belt, and in one motion swung her right leg over, turning her body to straddle Michael in the driver's seat. Michael brought his free hand to turn the ignition off, his other hand still exploring under her skirt, rubbing his fingertips back and forth at the top of her wet mound, finding her clit, it swelling from her passion for him.
Tracy brought her lips to his, sealing tight against them as she pressed her weight down into his lap, groaning loudly as she felt his flaring head pierce through her folds, his precum oozing out, burning against her inner walls. Michael moaned loudly as her muscles began to milk his shaft, it burying deeper within her tight pussy every time she grinded into his lap. Michael's hands rounded her waist, reaching the buttons of her blouse as his hips rocked up against her, his full length buried deep within her pussy, their pubic hairs meshed against one another.
He unbuttoned her blouse, one button at a time, exposing the silky smooth skin of her tummy, to her full rounded breasts, her nipples hardening as the cool air hit them. The sound of the roaring train became distant as they became lost in each other's passion, their juices mixing within her, coating over his shaft as it filled and released deep within her tight canal. Suddenly, just as the intensity of the moment grew near its peak ... a knock upon the driver side door was heard.... both Tracy and Michael looked over ... and standing before them was a police officer. Their motion ceased, knowing the trouble they were in.
Tracy, however, glanced down, noticing a budge under his pants, and knew he must have been watching them for a couple of minutes, bit her lower lip, and continued her grinding motion with her hips against Michael's cock, it still throbbing and erect inside her. The officer caught wind of the lustful stare within Tracy's eyes, and although knowing it was his duty to stop them, even arrest them, he said not a word as Tracy brought her hand up, rubbing her palm against his cock slowly. Michael turned his head, watching intently as Tracy unzipped the policeman's pants, she slid her hand in, cupping it around his shaft, coaxing it from the opened zipper.
Grinding down harder against Michael's lap, she brought her lips to the stranger's head, already wet from his precum, rolling her tongue over the tip slowly. She lifted her eyes up into the cop's eyes as she slipped her lips around the head, and began a slow methodical suckle against it as she cupped her other hand around the back of Michael's head, guiding it out the driver side window too. The cop let out a loud moan as Tracy drew Michael's lips to the shaft of his cock, and Michael, knowing from what Tracy shared with him about her fantasies, laid his tongue flat at the base of the officer's shaft as Tracy removed her lips from around his head. Michael licked slowly along its throbbing vein, to the head...the officer letting out a louder moan as Tracy slid down harder onto Michael's lap, feeling his full length press hard and deep within her pussy, a tightening feeling developing in her tummy as her climax drew closer.
Michael wrapped his lips over the thick head, and in one slow steady motion, sucked his way down the officer's cock, inch by inch, until his soft hair tickled against Michael's lips. Tracy let out a loud scream as she watched Michael's mouth fill with the shaft, rolling her hips in a circle, grinding down hard against Michael's cock as he began to bob his head repeatedly, his cheeks hollowing with each suck against the policeman.
The policeman and Michael both began to moan, very loudly, both of them feeling their climaxes drawing closer, stimulated by Tracy's sensual screams as her walls gripped tight against Michael's shaft. Her orgasm commenced, her body jerking wildly as her sweet juices flooded out, coating over Michael's cock as he bit down against the cop's thick muscle, feeling it jerk wildly between his lips...he began to bob his head faster, and right at the peak of the policeman's screams, Michael slid his lips up to the head of his cock as Tracy took hold of the shaft, and began to stroke it wildly.
The cop 's entire body trembled deeply as his thick cum released from his cock, spilling out onto Michael's tongue, he swallowing his thick load hungrily as Tracy's hand continually slid up and down the length of the shaft. As their bodies began to settle from the intense climaxes, the last car of the train passed by the RR crossing, the lights went off, the guardrails began to lift, the officer then told them to drive safely, and went to back to his car. Michael looked over into Tracy's eyes as she rolled off his lap, lowering her skirt, fastening her seat belt once again. Before they drove over the railroad tracks, Tracy pressed her lips against Michael's, sliding her tongue between them, tasting the officer's thick cum still within her boyfriend's mouth, a fantasy she had so much desire to explore having finally be fulfilled, then whispered softly against his lips.... "I love you sweetheart, mmmm so very much."

HTC Unveils One X+ with 1.7GHz Tegra 3, Sense 4+ and Android 4.1 (Update)
Update: The HTC One X+ will be available in Stealth Black and Polar White in mid November 2012.
HTC unveiled the One X+, an upgraded version of the One X. In short, the new device is stated to be faster, have more storage capacity and said to last longer than the One X.
The HTC One X+ is equipped with a more powerful NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor (AP37), which offers a clock speed of 1.7GHz. The Taiwanese company claims that it is up to 67% faster than the One X. Users can expect faster web browsing, more fluid gaming and graphic rendering.
Seen on the One X+ is the new HTC Sense 4+, which brings several new features such as Self Portrait mode for the front camera, a Tap and Go function for playing music out loud, Video Hub for putting all the videos in one centralized location, and HTC Get Started.
Self Portrait mode allows you to make use of the front-facing camera to capture high-quality photos by detecting the human face at various angles and applying subtle enhancements to the skin and eyes. A new Sightseeing mode will enable you to bypass the lock screen and launches the phone directly into camera mode by a simple touch of the Power button.
The Tap and Go function takes advantage of Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, where you connect the phone and music to Beats Speakers with one tap. Disconnecting will require another quick tap.
HTC Get Started is a new web service that guides the user through the set-up and personalization process from a desktop web browser. Settings and apps that are chosen on the web service will be reflected on the device at a touch of a button.
Last but not least, the HTC One X+ comes with a larger 2,100mAh battery, which will deliver up to 50% (6 hours) more talk time. The One X only comes with a 1,800mAh battery.

What should a robot smell like? I have augmented three existing industrial robots with 'sweat glands'. Each uses a specific property of human sub-conscious behaviour in response to a chemical stimulus. The contrast between the physical anti-anthropomorphic nature of the machines and the olfactory anthropomorphism highlights the absurd nature of the trickery at play in all anthropomorphism.
How might the sensory experience of interacting with a humanoid robot be made more authentic? This short film explores the reality of a humanoid robot that produces a fear scented 'sweat' on its palms in anticipation of meeting a human for the first time. This 'sweat' is formulated to defuse any fear felt by the human on first contact and enhance the encounter.
Type is organic, it's alive…
Bruno Maag
Much of the recent work in the field of synthetic biology involves the expression of pigments by bacteria in response to stimuli. Typical applications of this often include identifying contaminants in drinking water or the early symptoms of a disease.
I wanted to explore the potential of this developing technology in a more personal and cultural context. I wanted to ask how people would go about adopting it and how they would feel about using it.
I was also inspired by a recent talk from typographer Bruno Maag. He spoke about type as being organic, he described it as being alive. While he was speaking metaphorically it sparked a thought in my mind: what if synthetic biology meant that type really was alive? What if out letters were living organisms?
I developed a scenario around a private love letter, written in a unique ink that is shared by two lovers. The couple also share a unique bacterial infection in their saliva. This bacteria expresses pigment when in comes into contact with the ink. A unique ink and bacterial combination would be created by couples to express their commitment to each other.
I created a video piece to explore the abstracted reality of this scenario. In shows a woman decoding a love letter using her saliva, licking the letters one by one. The use of the hand written love letter is pertinent as we already have a physical connection with them, we lick the envelops and stamps, sending a piece of ourselves along with the letter.
I used an extract from a letter send from English poet John Keats to his lover Fanny Brawne in 1819. The text is peculiarly appropriate to the message I wished to convey.

Trelawny wants more money for Jamaica 50 celebrations
FALMOUTH, Trelawny - CHAIRMAN of the Civic and Community Affairs Committee of the Trelawny Parish Council Philip Service has expressed disappointment over the Government's $3-million allocation to fund Jamaica 50 activities in the parish.
At the same time, Service who also chairs the Jamaica 50 Planning Committee for Trelawny, is appealing to the private sector and the Ministry of Youth and Culture to provide more funding for the parish's planned activities.
Speaking at the launch of the committee's activities for Trelawny's celebrations at the Falmouth Town Hall on Monday, Service said the parish is facing a shortfall of $2 million for activities associated with the celebrations.
"An additional $2 million would certainly help us. We continue to make an appeal to corporate Jamaica to come on board. At the same time we are thankful for all the sponsors that are already on board as we work together to create an event that is world class," he told reporters.
The committee has planned a series of events which began on Tuesday and will end on Independence Day, August 6. The activities will include a library exhibition, a road race, and a fishing tournament.
Service also noted that from August 1-6, Water Square in Falmouth, will be transformed into what he described as an "Independence Village".
"We will be making approximately 30 boats out of bamboo that will be available for rental to the public and they will be able to use them to offer craft, food and anything that they can go into, based on whatever activities are taking place," he said.

Cranberry, Cherry & Walnut Marmalade 17 Fresh cranberries get crunch from walnuts and an infusion of sweetness from dried cherries in this take on a classic marmalade. Leftovers are great on a turkey sandwich.
Chicken Thighs with Green Olive, Cherry & Port Sauce 12 This sweet and salty sauce with dried cherries and port is wonderful over succulent chicken thighs. It's also great with lean pork or chicken breast. Substitute cranberry juice for the port if you prefer. Serve with farro tossed with chopped pistachios and fresh herbs and steamed green beans.
Sweet & Savory Beef Stew 11 This beef stew for two replicates the flavors in tzimmes, a sweet stew traditionally served at Rosh Hashanah to start the New Year. This version gets natural sweetness from cherries and butternut squash.
Chocolate-Cherry Cupcakes 10 The chopped cherries blend into the ultra-rich chocolate cake, giving these cupcakes a slight cherry flavor while keeping it super-moist with little added oil. The combination of reduced-fat cream cheese and sour cream gives the frosting cheesecake-like flavor with about 40 calories and 3 grams saturated fat less than a traditional cream cheese frosting.
Almond Cherry Bites 9 Dried cherries, ground almonds and a drizzle of chocolate make these cookies festive for the holidays.
Puffed Cherry Pancake 9 This puffed cherry pancake is similar to an Apfelpfannkuchen--a puffy German pancake full of apples. Dust it with confectioners' sugar or drizzle with maple syrup for a special breakfast treat.
Maple Pecan Tart with Dried Cherries 8 This pecan tart gets added tang from dried cherries. Instead of corn syrup, which is found in most pecan pie recipes, we've opted for maple syrup. If you can find it, choose dark amber or grade B, because it has the richest maple flavor. The crust, made with heart-healthy pecans and canola oil, couldn't be easier to whip together. Just blend it in the food processor and pat it into your tart pan.
No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake 8 This no-bake cherry cheesecake is an easy summertime treat. This no-bake cheesecake recipe has omega-3-rich walnuts in the graham cracker crust and uses nonfat Greek yogurt and reduced-fat cream cheese in the filling to keep saturated fat in check. If you want a bright red topping, use sour cherries. Sweet cherries give it a more purple hue. To make gluten-free no-bake cherry cheesecake, use gluten-free graham crackers.
Cherry, Wild Rice & Quinoa Salad 7 This whole-grain wild rice and quinoa salad recipe is perfect for toting to summer potlucks. It features sweet cherries, crunchy celery, nutty aged goat cheese and toasted pecans. If you can find red quinoa, it's particularly pretty.
Chocolate Bark with Pistachios & Dried Cherries 7 With the news that dark chocolate contains some healthful properties, there is a better excuse than ever to indulge during the holiday season. Specks of green pistachios and red dried cherries in this chocolate confection make for a festive holiday gift.
Stone-Fruit Bars 6 Try your favorite combination of stone fruit, such as peaches and cherries, in these easy fruit bars.
Cherries with Ricotta & Toasted Almonds 6 Warm cherries topped with luscious ricotta cheese and toasted almonds makes for a rich-tasting--yet calorie-conscious--treat.
Chocolate-Cherry Snack Bars 5 These cereal bars are chewy, crunchy and delicious with good-for-you seeds, nuts, fruit and little explosions of chocolate. We like the flavor of dried cherries or cranberries, but any coarsely chopped dried fruit will work.
Whole-Grain Waffles with Cherry Sauce 5 Cornmeal adds appealing texture to these waffles and hot cherry sauce is a tasty, nutrient-rich alternative to maple syrup. Any fine cornmeal works in the recipe. If you want to use whole-grain cornmeal, look for finely ground cornmeal labeled "whole-grain" or "stone-ground" in the natural-foods section of the supermarket or at natural-foods stores.
Smoky Roasted Cherry Jam 5 This is not a sweet jam to eat on your peanut butter sandwich, rather a smoky, roasted cherry jam that goes well with savory foods like cheese, grilled pork tenderloin or roasted chicken. Try it on a grilled cheese sandwich with extra-sharp Cheddar or fontina cheese.
Bourbon Cherries 5 A boozy fire emanates from these drunken cherries that get better with age. Serve them with cheese or combine the cherry-infused bourbon with seltzer or other soda to make a special cocktail. Fill a 12-ounce rocks glass with ice, add 1 1/2 ounces (3 tablespoons) of the cherry-infused bourbon (or rum), top with seltzer and garnish with the bourbon cherries.
Cherry Ice Cream Pie with Chocolate Cookie Crust 5 This cherry ice cream pie is a simple summertime sweet treat! If you use frozen cherries, the pie will have a fun purple hue.
Cherry-Vanilla Bean Milkshake 5 So thick you'll need a straw and a long spoon to enjoy this frosty cherry-vanilla milkshake.
Grilled Chicken with Cherry-Chipotle Barbecue Sauce 5 Chopped cherries combine with cherry preserves and smoky, hot chipotle peppers for an unusual marinade and sauce for grilled chicken. Recipe by Nancy Baggett for EatingWell.
Frozen Pineapple Upside-Down Cake 5 Retro, creamy and delicious, this cake is the frozen version of the beloved classic. This takes a bit of extra time to make--but it's worth it.

Hingham Selectmen met Thursday night and voted to increase liquor license fees for bars and restaurants.
Selectmen originally sent restaurant owners just a five week notice that their liquor license fees were going to increase $2,000.00 – double what they're paying now.
However, after a backlash by the restaurants, selectmen voted 2 to 1 to implement a sliding scale.
Selectmen Chair Bruce Rabuffo disclosed the fee structure.
"The increase for restaurants with under 100 seats is $250.00, seats between 100 and 175, of which there are seven restaurants, the increase is $500.00 and for all those over 175 seats, for which there are 10, the increase is $1,000.00."
Selectman Rabuffo was the only selectman to vote against the measure and says he's opposed to any liquor license fees increases at this time.

as i write this, i can see there are 28 contests on the challenge page-- a record-breaker, considering that i usually join a regular bunch of 18 offers!.. with different requirements, forms of poetry,and reminders from sponsors, my head is bursting at the moment, lol !...
no, i am not complaining... but given a month to post something that is truly deserving, this would mean one poem a day to catch up on all contests.. i have no more ammunition, let alone poetic words to create worthy pieces... often, i would stay till 3am to scribble some nonsensical , mambo-jumbo works just to check if i can join more challenges...
i know, i know it's fun to stretch the creative envelope, then again, i am simply amazed by the range and number of contests going on... could it be the thrill of spring, the influence of a coming new moon, or the enthusiasm of many sponsors to break our bones??.. will it be 29 or 30 comps tomorrow?
let's have a marathon and count the wrinkles, soupers!.. i will ask for a week's leave from work to make sure i can support ya all ( can't, can't!)... so, how many can you do, dear poets??
huggs and slave away, happily!

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 12/03/12 -- As previously announced, on November 10, 2011, GrowthWorks Canadian Fund Ltd. ("Canadian Fund") obtained an initial regulatory order in connection with the Board of Directors' decision to close Class A Share redemptions. The initial order was extended to July 31, 2012 and then to November 30, 2012 (the "Order"). Canadian Fund had applied to extend the effect of the previously granted Order to July 31, 2013. Securities regulators elected not to grant the extension, as they were unable to conclude that granting the extension on the terms requested by Canadian Fund would not be prejudicial to the public interest. Securities regulators proposed a six-week extension of the Order with a condition that no management fees or other compensation be paid or accrue to the manager of Canadian Fund. The proposed extension was not acceptable to Canadian Fund as complying with the terms of the extension would have forced Canadian Fund to breach the management contract with its manager and caused a default under financing arrangements put in place to support Canadian Fund's liquidity. Securities regulators also advised Canadian Fund that they are not willing to issue an order that would allow Canadian Fund, when cash is available, to periodically process redemptions under the Redemption Management Plan or "RMP" adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by shareholders of Canadian Fund.
Canadian Fund closed redemptions of Class A Shares just over one year ago on November 10, 2011. While other retail venture capital funds have applied for and been granted orders allowing for the closure of redemptions for more than two years, securities regulators have advised Canadian Fund that they consider Canadian Fund's situation to be novel because of the financing arrangements put in place to support Canadian Fund's liquidity.
Ian Ross, Chairman of the Board responded, "While we are disappointed by the decision of the securities regulators to not extend the order, the Board of Directors will continue to pursue options aimed at serving the best interests of shareholders."
As a result of this decision by securities regulators, Canadian Fund must, under applicable securities laws, allow shareholders to request redemptions of their Class A Shares. However, under applicable corporate laws, Canadian Fund can process Class A Share redemption requests only if after doing so Canadian Fund would remain in a position to pay its liabilities as they become due. At present, the Board of Directors cannot conclude that Canadian Fund would meet this statutory test if Canadian Fund were to process anticipated redemption requests as received. As a result, Canadian Fund will not process redemption requests that are submitted until such time as the Board of Directors of Canadian Fund determines that Canadian Fund would meet this test. There can be no assurance as to when Canadian Fund will have sufficient cash available to process Class A Share redemptions.
Accordingly, Canadian Fund cannot process Class A Share redemption requests at this time and therefore redemption requests cannot be submitted electronically through FundServ. Redemption requests must be submitted manually using a Redemption Request Form provided by Canadian Fund's Manager. The Redemption Request Form will be available during the week of Monday, December 3, 2012 on GrowthWorks' website at www.growthworks.ca. Canadian Fund will issue a further announcement outlining the procedures for submitting redemption requests and the terms and conditions on which redemption requests will be processed. Further announcements will also be made at such time as the Board of Directors determines that Canadian Fund meets the statutory test for processing Class A Share redemptions. These announcements will be made in advance of any redemption dates that may be designated by the Board of Directors.
Canadian Fund's assets consist primarily of venture investments in private Canadian corporations in the technology, biotechnology and advanced manufacturing sectors. Canadian Fund's ability to generate cash is entirely dependent on levels of divestment activity in the venture portfolio, activity that is highly sensitive to market conditions. Canadian Fund continues to actively pursue divestments of portfolio assets which are determined to be in the best interests of Canadian Fund, as well as make selected follow-on investments. There can be no assurance as to the timing or value of these divestments or as to Canadian Fund's ability to discharge its payment obligations under the debt financing arrangements put in place to support Canadian Fund's liquidity. Details of the financing arrangements are set out in Canadian Fund's press releases of May 28, 2010 ("GrowthWorks Canadian Fund enters into a Participation Agreement with Roseway Capital") and May 23, 2012 ("GrowthWorks Canadian Fund Provides Update on Financing Arrangements"). A total of $33.5 million was advanced to Canadian Fund under the financing arrangements and approximately $11.7 million (including interest) is due to be paid on account of the financing arrangements on December 20, 2012, and a further $27.2 million (including interest and participation amounts) is due to be paid by May 28, 2013. Canadian Fund's payment obligations under these financing arrangements are secured by charges over Canadian Fund's portfolio assets and/or proceeds from the sale of those assets. If Canadian Fund were to default on its obligations under the financing arrangements, the security over Canadian Fund's assets may be enforced, which could result in forced divestments at values well below carrying values and a significant decline in Class A Share values.
The Board of Directors of Canadian Fund continues to review strategic options aimed at realizing the value potential that is believed to exist in Canadian Fund's venture investment portfolio and at providing liquidity for shareholders of Canadian Fund. These options are considered in light of a range of factors, including Canadian Fund's cash position, actual and projected levels of divestment activity, payment obligations under financing arrangements, other operating commitments and the prospects for generating divestment values in excess of carrying values.
Forward-Looking Statements: This press release contains forward-looking statements about Canadian Fund Class A Share redemptions, Canadian Fund's ability to make follow-on investments, to complete divestments from its venture investment portfolio and to make payments under financing arrangements. These statements are based on beliefs and assumptions of management of Canadian Fund at the time the statements are made, including beliefs and assumptions about Canadian Fund's ability to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its payment obligations under financing arrangements and to process Class A Share redemptions, future market conditions and future levels of divestment activity and Class A Share redemption requests. These beliefs and assumptions are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties associated with volatility of market conditions and, in turn, the climate for divestment activity, performance of portfolio companies, valuations of portfolio companies, the risk that Canadian Fund may not be able to generate sufficient net proceeds from the divestment of portfolio assets to satisfy its obligations under its outstanding secured indebtedness, financing needs of portfolio companies and the availability of capital to satisfy such financing needs and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in Canadian Fund's most recently filed prospectus and other regulatory filings posted on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results, events or developments to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Unless required by law, neither Canadian Fund nor its manager assumes any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or other factors.

Experts from across the globe to convene at Loyola to discuss transparency in government
October 19, 2012
Jean-Yves Cherot, IALM president |
Transparency is the theme of the XIIth Congress of the International Association of Legal Methodology, a free two-day event hosted by the Loyola University New Orleans College of Law. It takes place in room 308 of the College of Law Thursday, Nov. 1, from 9:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. and Friday, Nov. 2, from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. It is open to the public, but registration is recommended. A full list of speakers and topics is available.
College of Law Dean María Pabón López, J.D., and Jean-Yves Chérot, IALM president and law professor from Aix Marseille Université, will offer opening remarks.
About 20 scholars hailing from Europe and North America will convene on campus to discuss the many facets of openness in government. They will address what conditions need to be present to achieve transparency in different instances, how much room should be allowed for secrecy and confidentiality or for any other countervailing considerations in any of these contexts and discuss whether the information society is really the best breeding ground for the achievement of transparency.
Topics that will be covered include the "Transparency of legislative procedure," "Criminal justice through the prism of transparency," "Transparency of the judicial process in modern technological courtrooms" and "Transparency and private law contracts," among others.
According to Loyola College of Law professor Dominique Custos, Ph.D., the Judge John D. Wessel Distinguished Professor of Law and organizer of this event, the requirement that government must operate in the sunshine radiates throughout the legislative, executive and judicial branches and is essential to holding public officials accountable for their actions.
"Transparency also informs contractual dealings whether in public procurement or among private parties," Custos said.
For more information, contact Custos at email@example.com or 504-861-5660.

Armonk, NY - 13 Jan 2009: Nearly 60 years after IBM played a major role in developing the heart lung machine, scientists and engineers from IBM Research continue to break new ground in modernizing healthcare.
In the 1960s, IBM invented the first continuous blood separator, used to treat critically ill leukemia patients. IBM has also helped develop the field of relaxometry, which plays a role in medical magnetic resonance imagery (MRI), and invented the method for using excimer lasers that eventually became photorefractive (LASIK) eye surgery.
And this was just the beginning; to this day, IBM continues to make significant contributions to healthcare through technology innovations:
IBM and Mayo Clinic establish clinical trial information system
IBM supercomputer powers melanoma diagnosis tools
IBM introduces World Community Grid; idle computer time serves global humanitarian effort
IBM brings electronic medical records one step closer through open technology
IBM, public health groups form Global Pandemic Initiative
IBM Research unveils 3D avatar to help doctors visualize patient records and improve care
IBM and University of Edinburgh use world's most advanced supercomputer to tackle HIV
IBM integrates viral genomics with clinical data to predict responses to anti-HIV treatment

Florida will be the center of Republicans' political universe for the next three days, starting with a televised GOP presidential debate Thursday night and wrapping up Saturday with a presidential straw poll.
Get used to it.
The spotlight will remain on Florida long after the last vote is tallied this weekend.
Sunshine State Republican leaders are poised to throw the GOP presidential primary schedule into disarray by scheduling Florida's contest in mid-February, in defiance of national party edicts — a move that could cause other early-voting states to move up their primaries in protest.
And it is looking more and more like Florida will be decisive in the developing showdown between Texas Gov. Rick Perry and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.
With Romney and Perry potentially splitting wins in the early 2012 presidential contests in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada, Florida — angling to bat fifth in the order — looms large.
"It will be the death knell if you don't win Florida," predicts Lew Oliver, chairman of the state's Orange County Republicans.
Florida primary voters ended Romney's 2008 presidential run, when Arizona Sen. John McCain pulled off a win on his way to the GOP nomination. (One caveat this time around: In 2008, Florida was a winner-take-all-delegates state; next year, delegates will be awarded to candidates in proportion to the votes they get.)
So the primary could either end a candidate's campaign, as Oliver predicts, or put a sizable dent in someone's momentum.
Given the state's size, demographics and historic influence as a tossup state in the general election, it's a "big deal, whenever it holds its primary," says Peter Brown of the Quinnipiac University Poll. "It's not just symbolic, but reflective of what will happen in the South."
We look at four things we can learn from Florida this primary season:
1. Polls confirm a two-man GOP race.
Going into Thursday's debate, two Florida polls show Perry and Romney in a close race, and both far outpacing the rest of the Republican field.
A Quinnipiac University Poll released Thursday morning shows that 31 percent of registered Florida Republicans surveyed named Perry as their top choice, with Romney the pick of 22 percent. The rest of the field, led by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich at 8 percent, trailed badly. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percentage points.
In a head-to-head matchup, Perry outpolled Romney 46 percent to 38 percent.
"Perry's candidacy embodies the view and values, and the image of a Southern-dominated Republican Party," says Quinnipiac's Brown. And Perry, not Romney, is the candidate best positioned to attract supporters of the also-rans when they exit the race, pollsters say.
A survey by Republican pollsters at War Room Logistics, as reported by the Miami Herald, had Romney and Perry in a dead heat, with both attracting 25 percent of likely GOP voters surveyed. Gingrich again topped the rest of the pack at 8 percent.
The poll also shows that in a general matchup with President Obama, Perry runs about even with Obama among Florida voters surveyed, and Romney has a slight lead over the president. The War Room poll has Romney even with Obama, and Perry trailing.
2. Social Security won't sink Perry.
Romney in recent days has doubled down on criticism of Perry's past statements about Social Security. And some Florida Republicans have also hit Perry for referring to the program that provides benefits to the elderly as a Ponzi scheme.
But Florida Republican voters, it turns out, appear to largely agree with Perry.
When asked by Quinnipiac whether it was fair for Perry to refer to the program as a Ponzi scheme, more than half of those surveyed said "yes." And when asked if they believe Perry wants to fix or to end Social Security, 60 percent said the governor wants to fix it. Fourteen percent said they believe he wants to end it.
"Perry may, according to some analysts, have problems with independent voters in a general election," Brown says. "But his views and values on most issues, including Social Security, appear to be right in the middle of the GOP mainstream." Even in Florida, with its large elderly population.
3. Florida will remake the primary calendar.
If Florida Republicans schedule their primary for Feb. 14, the presidential contest season would most likely begin Jan. 15 with the Iowa caucuses, says Josh Putnam, a political scientist at Davidson College who tracks the calendar.
The national party's original schedule had the contests kicking off Feb. 6 in Iowa.
Florida — like other states including Arizona and, likely, Michigan — would pay a price for defying the national party by scheduling primaries before "Super Tuesday" on March 6. The national party has threatened to cut state delegates to the national convention in Tampa in half.
"I don't think the powers that be in Florida care all that much about the delegates," Putnam says. "Ideally, Florida would like to be the decisive contest." Putnam, however, sees the race extending beyond the Sunshine State and into April contests in more Romney-friendly territory.
4. This straw poll may actually mean something.
Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann's summer win at the Iowa straw poll has been dismissed by critics as bought and paid for, with little lasting effect.
But unlike Iowa, a pay-to-play event where campaigns buy admission tickets for supporters, Florida's 3,500 expected straw poll participants are party members selected in July by lottery and by county chairmen. And nobody pays to participate. Romney and Bachmann don't plan to speak, but all the candidates will appear on the ballot (except newcomer Gary Johnson, who qualified too late to make the cut).
"It's very, very representative of where the state party is, politically," says Oliver, a Perry supporter who is running to be vice chairman of the state Republican Party.
This is the state party's fifth straw poll; each one has predicted the primary winner, Oliver says. (The party did not hold the poll in 2008.)

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
In December 2012 Microsoft published a whitepaper entitled SSIS Operational and Tuning Guide which you can download by clicking here.
I have skimmed through the whitepaper and it appears to be a compelling read however a couple of sentences caught my eye that I want to draw attention to here. These sentences refer to the use SSIS checkpoint files:
Some of the most common challenges with SSIS packages are in how to handle unexpected failures during execution, and how to minimize the amount of time required to finish the execution of an ETL process when you must resume processing after a failure. For control flow tasks such as file system tasks, checkpoints can be used to resume execution without reprocessing work that has already been completed. When designing packages, one of the largest concerns is designing so that in the event of failure, you do not lose all of the progress the package has made up to this point. For items in the control flow of a package, this is accomplished by the use of checkpoints.
In blog post Why I don't use SSIS checkpoint files from March 2011 I explain my experiences of SSIS checkpoint files and why I choose not to use them. In addition there are a number of Connect submissions that speak to the problems associated with SSIS checkpoints:
Microsoft have not (as far as I know) publicly acknowledged any issue with SSIS checkpoints however I am certain that internally the SSIS product team know the current implementation is inadequate for many scenarios. With this in mind I am disappointed that a Microsoft whitepaper openly advocates the use of them without at least acknowledging their deficiencies.
Designing for restartability is hard. I personally choose not to use checkpoints and instead implement my own custom restartability solution; I am not saying steer clear at all costs but I hope that if you choose to use them that you both understand the implications of doing so and test that they behave as you expect.

Completely agree.
I used to suggest using them all the time in my presentations. I have since run into several problems and have steered clear for the past four or five years both personally and in presentations.
I think checkpoints can be incredibly useful, particularly if a few of the problems were resolved. However, even with that you would still have to design the package in such a way as to use them successfully.
Good points, Jamie,
I concur. It is very easy to present checkpoints as a simple solution to bypass previously successful steps in a data integration process. But they are *not* simple.
Thanks for the reminder, Jamie!
Jamie, I share your skepticism around SSIS checkpoints. While they are an excellent idea in theory, the implementation doesn't lend itself to ease of use or clarity. I avoid SSIS checkpoints, relying instead on rolling my own restartability elements in my package frameworks.
Hopefully this whitepaper won't cause too much confusion among the masses.
During the SSIS SQLPASS Precon in 2011, Matt Masson simply said don't use checkpoints in SSIS. Personally I've never had a good use case where SSIS was the best place to manage check points.
Agreed with all the above.
When I first started using SSIS 2005 several years ago, I investigated the use of checkpoints. However, I came across several confusing & undesirable consequences of using them. This is even more apparent when combined with Transactions. I have avoided them ever since.
As you have correctly pointed out, what is most disappointing is that MS have failed to address the issues raised in Connect & then advocated the use of them in a white paper.
I learned the hard way that checkpoints are a bust. Should have read Jamies blog first. For my purposes if only the Event Handler problem were fixed, I could use checkpoints. Let's hope with all the new data in SSIS 2012 catalog, the team will use that to make a robust restart framework and drop CP files altogether.
On a side note, is anyone having issues with the changes to 2012 flat file connection manager? Specifically those meant to 'fix' lack of support for embedded qualifiers.
I'm not finding a much in forums or blogs. All my packages with qualifiers are failing. Fails when row delimiter changes, for example which 2008 handled fine. Since the new behaviour can't be toggled on or off (you'd think something named ' AlwaysCheckForRowDelimiters' might affect it, apparently not) Instead of a fix this should be listed as a 'breaking change'. Hopefully I'm missing something, but I fear not and info seems scarce.
TIA, Josh

The Canadiens blew a two-goal lead in the third period against the Boston Bruins Saturday and return home to Montreal tied 1-1 in their best-of-seven playoff series.
"We've just got to regroup, realize the situation we're in," said Canadiens goaltender Carey Price after the Habs 5-3 loss to the Bruins. The Canadiens are in a good spot, added Price, who turned in another fine performance.
"We weren't expecting to come in here and sweep two games."
The Canadiens knew it was going to be a long series and are ready for that, said Canadiens coach Michel Therrien.
"We have to look at the big picture," he said.
"I thought we played really well for 50 minutes even in the third period. The first 10 minutes we were almost perfect," Therrien said.
"There was a bad coverage for the second goal and you need breaks to win hockey games–and this is what they got from (Patrice) Bergeron's goal," he said. "You look at the replay and it's a bad bounce in front of the net. We got some breaks last game and they got the breaks tonight," Therrien added.
Mike Weaver and Thomas Vanek scored for the Habs. Vanek scored back-to-back goals on the power play, deflecting two shots by P.K. Subban past Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask. With two assists, Subban now leads the Canadiens in the playoffs with 9 points.
"We had a two-goal lead. We have to manage the puck better and do smarter things out there, making sure we are being smart with the puck and putting ourselves in a good position," Subban said.
"We are playing good hockey. We just have to focus for a full 60 and get back to it," he said.
Subban was also asked about the racist tweets aimed at him on Twitter during Thursday's game. "It's completely unfair for anybody to point the finger at the organization or the fan base. They have passionate fans here, great fan base and since I've been in the league it's been awesome. I've come to Boston many times, my family has come here, and it's been great."
"What people may say on Twitter or social media is not a reflection by any means of the league or the Boston Bruins," he added.

Artful Dodger Italic Font by Hanoded
About: The Artful Dodger is a character in Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist. Dickens wrote his books in the Victorian Era, which also gave birth to a beautiful and extensively used typeface called Clarendon. The typeface was developed by Robert Besley and first published in 1845. Artful Dodger was modeled on the glyphs found in a 1865 book, which was typeset in Clarendon. Artful Dodger has not been 'cleaned', so the glyphs look rough and worn, just like the book I found them in.

Hello I need to export my 24min film to make it a file size of under 2gb and preferably .mov format. Right now the full .mov file is 14gb. Keeping the highest possible quality is very important. I tried .mp4 but the footage looked choppy. Thanks
Do you have any software you can use? Or would you like to have some free software recommended. You gave us very little information to work with, that's maybe why no one has answered yet. If you have Apple Compressor, use any preset that will not reduce the resolution and encode the video in H.264 (for example a videosharing-Preset). Then tweak the video bitrate so you end up with a file below 2GB. If you don't have a conversion tool and don't want to spend money, I would do the following: Get Handbrake to convert your video. You will end up with a .mp4 file. If you need a .mov container, just use this little tool I programmed to change the container without reencoding (same size, very fast, no quality loss). For both methods, you will have to set the average video bitrate accordingly to end up with 2GB. That requires some math. 1. Your video is 21 minutes long. That's 21*60 = 1260 seconds. 2. If you have stereo audio channels, I assume you will end up with 192kb/s for the audio stream. That's ( 192kb/s * 1260 s ) = 241920 kb. 1 Byte is 8 bit, so that gives you ( 241920 / 8 ) = 30240 kB. That's ( 30240 / 1024 ) = 29.53 MB for the sound. Let's say 50 MB, to be sure. 3. You get the point? Do the same for video, but the other way around: 1950 MB => (1950 * 1024) = 1996800 kB => (1996800 * 8) = 15974400 kb => (15974400 kb / 1260 s) = 12678 kb/s I would try 12500 kb/s as setting for the average video bitrate. This video explains how you can set the bitrate in Compressor and where it will show the the resulting file size. In Handbrake, setting the average bitrate is pretty self-explanatory, but you will have to wait and see how big the file is gonna be. Unless someone did the math for you. Next time, try to give a little more information about your problem (resolution, number of audio channels, software you use/have, etc...) and more people might be inclined to help you if it's an emergency.
What you want to use is H.264 encoding. Set your export settings to quicktime movie, h.264. You can chose the bitrate. Go for something like 5000Kbps. This will get you a file around 1GB in size.
Oh, additionally: .mov or .mp4 is only the container for the video. It has nothing to do with the file size, the used codec or the quality. You can easily switch between containers. Currently, the best codec out there is H.264, so you should use that. Than, if you have a size restriction, you can calculate the maximum bitrate (in your case around 12500 kb/s). If you have both this, the quality of the video won't change a lot anymore. So, if your .mp4 file was 2GB in size, that is roughly what your video is gonna look like at that compression. You will get slightly better results if you use a better encoder (e.g. Compressor instead of Handbrake/ffmpeg), but it won't change completely. If you have the option in your encoder, pick "2-pass encoding", that could actually make a difference... although also just a minor one.

Apartment by the sea
A Unique place for unforgettable vacations.
The Praetorium was the seat and residence of the proconsul of Crete. It is divided into two parts: the administrative section, in which the central building is the basilica, and the more "private" sector. The preserved ruins are dated to the 2nd century A.D. and seem to have been repaired in the 4th century A.D.
This totally excavated building is the largest in the whole City of Gortyn. The earliest constructions have suffered successive alterations in a long period of eight centuries. New structures were erected on the ruins of the earlier sometimes incorporating parts of them. In the 1st c AD the Praetorium consisted of a peristyle court 1000 sq.m. and large halls to the north and west. This first Praetorium was destroyed by an earthquake in the time of the Emperor Trajan (early 2nd c AD). It was reconstructed and a large Thermai complex was built at its east side. Some years later a large temple dedicated to the Augusts was built further at the east part. To the west of the Thermai the juridical basilica continued to function under a judge's responsibility according to the inscriptions found there, and statues of the emperors and other officers were still standing there. All these famous buildings were destroyed by the large earthquake in 365 AD. In 383 the consul Oecumenius Asclepiodotus Dositheus, agreeing with the capital of the empire, took care of the construction of the new Praetorium.

Temple of the Egyptian Gods
Gortyn archaeological site
The sanctuary of the Egyptian deities (1st-2nd centuries A.D.) is the only one, in the whole island, which is dedicated to the Egyptian gods Isis, Serapis and Anubis - Hermes although it is known that those gods are worshiped in other cities.
The sanctuary consists of quadrilateral nave, arcade on the west, underground crypt in the south and a cistern outside east of nave. In the central alcove stood the statue of Serapis and the side statues of Isis and Hermes - Anubis. In the southern part of the temple was oblong space, underground crypt purification and a small cictern. The final construction phase of the temple dates to the 1st / 2nd century. AD, in accordance with dedicatory inscription.

Great North Theatre
Gortyn archaeological site
The oldest theater of Gortyna was on the south slope of the Profitis Ilias hill (Acropolis), opposite to the Odeum. Its cavea was partly cut into the rock and partly built. Its scene was built at the west side of the large court of the Agora, which covered the river Lethaios with a flat bridge. This scene, which H. Belli saw in the 16th c AD, was 120 m long and was already destroyed in 19th c. AD.
On the proscenium there was an inscription of Julia Augusta and it was decorated with statues and relies, among which there was the statue of Europe on the Bull, with broken legs and head.This statue, as described by Admiral Spratt, is now kept in the British Museum and is dated to the 2nd c BC.
Great Roman Theatre
Gortyn archaeological site
It lies at the south eastern part of the city and it is considered to be largest of all theaters in Gortyna. Although it is not yet excavated, it is believed that it had a two storeyed stage and its cavea was supported by 56 arches. The statue of the seated philosopher that we see next to the exhibition hall of the archaeological site was found here.

Nymphaeum (Nymphaion)
Gortyn archaeological site
The Great Nymphaeum (Nymphaion GR: Νυμφαίον), located to the north of Praetorium, was a marble construction with a covered cistern and fountains. Statues of Nymphs stood in the niches. The area of the remains is closed to the public but visitors can see it from a distance.

Great Basilica
Gortyn archaeological site
This unique monument has been excavated in the last thirty years. It is located on the road between the Saint Titos Church and the village Mitropolis. It is the largest early Byzantine basilica in Crete and among the largest in whole Greece. In early Byzantine period it was the cathedral of the city. The first five-aisled basilica was erected here in the early 6th c., in the years of the Emperor Justinian and stood for about 70 years. The central aisle had a mosaic pavement decorated in geometric patterns and animals. It is believed that there were mosaics of stone and glass tesserae on the walls, too. The other aisle had pavements of limestone slabs. The columns were made of white and gray white marble. Of great importance is the pulpit, which resembles that of Saint Sophia in Constantinople. It was a high exedra on low columns and two stairs for ascent and decent. The choirs stood under the exedra. After the destruction of the first basilica in 620 AD, a new basilica was built over its ruins in the time of the Emperor Heraclios. This basilica, following the fortune of the whole city, was destroyed after the strong earthquake of 670 AD.

Greece State symbols
The Greek Flag | The Greek National Anthem | The Greek emblem
The design and colours (blue and white) of the national flag were laid down in January of 1822 at the first National Assembly at Epidauros. On 15 March of the same year the Executive Body (the Government), which had taken over the interim administration of Greece, specified by Decree 540 three types of flag: one land flag and two marine flags, one of which was for the navy and the other for the merchant marine.
Gortyn archaeological site
The Hippodrome was located in the south part of the city of Gortyn, and was surrounded by columns. The central section was 374 metres long and 60 metres wide. Our information on the site is insufficient for the reason that there was never a systematic survey, or even a small excavation. What we see today of this magnificent monument are only some parts of columns and capitals.

Polyrinia Village
The village of Polyrinia is built on the foot of the hill that ancient Polyrinia used to be. It is a small village located 6.5km away from Kastelli Kissamou, built at an altitude of 300 m. and has approximately 100 permanent residents. Its old name was Apano Paleokastro and was renamed to Polyrinia due to its proximity to the archaeological site. Important sights are: the aqueduct of Andrianos, the temple of the Assumption of the Holly-Mother and an old olive mill.

SHALLOTTE—There are two ways to look at Brunswick Community College's baseball doubleheader last Thursday against the visiting Louisburg Hurricanes.
A glass-half-full person might marvel at the fact a first-year club went toe-to-toe with a program that has won 25 conference titles and made 10 trips in the National Junior College Athletic Association World Series.
A glass-half-empty person might look at the two narrow defeats and think what might have been. BCC had chances to win both games but came up short, 3-1 and 5-3.

This really feels like it's taken a big amount of work to realize it! Well done guys! ;-)
Another brilliant addition to this site! You guys always take things to the next level. Looking forward to seeing poor and common item sets.
Who/what is wow.zaming.com? The flash/java tool need to see a 3-D model is asking me to give an self signed certificated from this site access to my computer.
I came up with names for quest/fun sets by trying to find the most amusing-sounding item and building the name around it :)I like the name of this set too:
I love you guys so much for this :D, my character's sets are already done but this is great for anyone still looking.
I've only had the chance to check this out on my phone, but the sexiness concept is great. I understand its a work in progress, and there is more to come, but why have items that are no longer available? I found an awesome looking black set that my shaman would LOVE to get, and it's for character level 57, so my epic geared toon would have no issue soloing for it.. I was really excited about getting it, looked at where to obtain it.. And it's no longer available to players.. Thanks for shattering that dream.. :-) Anyways, should be able to filter out items no longer available.. Can't wait for the polished "product"..
I am super excited by these developing tools! I am totally a visual person, and the ability to browse by image and color is going to be great. It's exactly what I've been wishing for in my search for a xmog set. Good times!
Awesome, I can't wait to see how you guys implement it! And thank you MogIt creators. You guys are amazing for this and for your addon. You've made everything so much easier for RPers and transmog fanatics alike. :)
Nice new tool. I look forward to additional functionality being added over time.
"The screenshots were all taken on a default human female model. However, if you'd like to see it on a different model..." But why would you? :D
Thank you to everyone who put this feature together! Even if it isn't finished yet, it's still amazingly awesome and a huge time saver with all the images. Your work is much appreciated. :)
Rather useless images without seeing atleast shoulderpads and head....
love it you guys are awesome
This is incredible! Thanks to you and your team for all your hard work.

OK, there doesn't seem to be a chance for a booth or forum for several reasons.
First, I want everyone to be sure to attend the SirStevesGuide.com party that I think is being organized in another thread.
Part of this is that I don't have time and enough certainty to get this organized.
I might cancel my plans to go to Indiana altogether and forfeit my flight and so forth due to a pending (and huge) career opportunity. I'd sacrafice Star Wars if it meant advancing my career this far.
While I doubt this opportunity will happen (but keep my fingers crossed) I can't see myself also planning for a forum or booth or something at C3, nor do I want to take money for people's T-shirts and then have to mail them if I can't deliver them in Indiana.
Still, most likely, I WILL be going to the Convention. I have everything prepared for a great time.
If the Mouse Droid thing changes at all (on the T-shirt front - or even better- for the forum) I will post here immediately and get thing going fast. A T-shirt order at the printer I found would take less than a week. If it can still happen, I think I'll need to talk with SirSteve as to whether he'd want his site's logo affiliated with the Mouse Droid Sniffers' Association on "Got Mouse?" T-shirts. He may think it's funny and think it advances the notice of our forums community here with something unique and fun that other SW communities don't have. Or he might think that if we are all committed to a mental hospital, his site won't lose that much traffic.
Meanwhile, if I get a chance, I will explain to Mary Franklin why a group of us here put new Star Wars figures up our noses, and why we want to have a convention panel discussion about that.
In all seriousness, again, the fresh scent of plastic just released from the packaging almost only happens when you find new figures. The issue is of more paramount importance when things are hard to find. With Episode 3 being released with a huge glut of new products that will be easily available, I don't think there will be a real lack of things to sniff.
When we really made a difference was during 2003's letter writing campaign when nothing was really shipping and SSG did a huge letter-send-out to Wal-Mart, Target, and Toys R Us, gathering official responses from each corporate - not to mention seeing the product distribution increase (whereas before, Wal-Mart said they'd only carry basic figures and lightsabers, and we saw them add Unleashed, Galactic Heroes, 12", and more).
So we will see what the future will hold and I'll still look forward to meeting all of you in Indianapolis!
congrats on the career opportunity tycho...too bad the moise droid idea fell through, it seemed like a cool one. looking forward to seeing you there if you make it.

I used to have a bad agoraphobia, then i just stopped giving a ****
How do you just flip the switch like that? I've experienced brief moments of it, but never consistent. Do you know what triggered it, or went on in your mind?
sounds like you've got it all worked out. When you decide the labels no longer fit you can have something else.
A lot of people are going through that too. You have a lot of friends here.
What would work for you? It may be hard to get out there and meet people with agoraphobia but it does get better with time.
It's ok, lots of people are the same. I am pretty much in that situation right now. Gonna try and find some kind of new group that I can join. You should try it too. Do something where you're forced to interact with people. I find that when I'm in that sort of situation, I usually do fine. Otherwise, if left to myself, I usually stay to myself. So you gotta have some kind of excuse to go out and interact with people, like a job, or volunteer commitment, or team or club.
It will take some time, the right mindset, and the right people. Try to think of where you can find people that you can relate to the most, and who would be most welcoming.
nope

.............. it's not sad yet

....................................... so do something about it FAST!

easier to treat it whilst your young.

have you signed up for some therapy ?

it's not easy... but it's well worth the effort

respect to you and your courage,

form robbie
What is it? I would be your friend.

NYT on EWTN
In a surprising enough discussion of the Catholic cable channel EWTN, the New York Times calls our attention to its efforts to reach the younger audience and the show that is unintentionally doing so: "But one show in particular seems likely to reach youths, simply by not trying to reach them. G. K. Chesterton: The Apostle of Common Sense is a prime-time tribute to the great Victorian writer and personality. The show doesn't try for flashiness: each episode consists of Dale Ahlquist, the placid president of the American Chesterton Society, speaking ex cathedra from his book-lined study." Of course, empirical numbers are not possible since the network doesn't track its ratings ("Spreading the Word via Friar-Cam", Josh Ozersky, 16 Jan 2005). Interesting stuff.
