MEMPHIS, TN -- This week, the University of Memphis began offering family rec center memberships to its students who can prove they are living in a family unit regardless of their sexual orientation.
The university took less than a week to change its membership policy after student Edie Love met with university officials and launched a campaign on Facebook to get the family membership policy changed to include same-sex couples.
Initially, Love was told that she did not qualify for a family membership because she was not legally married to her domestic partner. She and her partner were married in a non-legal ceremony in 2008. But to gain access to the school's rec center, the couple traveled to Eureka Springs, AR, where they obtained domestic partnership papers.
University officials worked with the Tennessee Board of Regents to make the change official. East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, TN, also will begin offering domestic partnership memberships for its student rec center on July 1.

iPad and PC on same IP subnet?
2. Re: Adobe Nav Won't connectJeffrey Tranberry May 11, 2011 2:13 PM (in response to Peter_McC)1 person found this helpful
To clarify, the name of the Photoshop server you set up in the Remote Connections dialog shows up on Nav or are you manually entering an IP address on the iPad?
3. Re: Adobe Nav Won't connectPeter_McC May 12, 2011 3:43 AM (in response to shsussman)
Yes, I believe that they are on the same subnet. They both
show up as connected clients on my router.
4. Re: Adobe Nav Won't connectPeter_McC May 12, 2011 3:44 AM (in response to Jeffrey Tranberry)
Yes, the address of the server shows up on the iPad. I tap it and it askes for a password. That's as far as I get.
5. Re: Adobe Nav Won't connectPeter_McC May 12, 2011 4:04 AM (in response to shsussman)
Further to my previous answer I think that the problem lies in the network configuration.
I have a wireless ADSL router and the iPad is connected to this through WiFi. My PC is connected to a a network port on the router but between the PC and the Router there is a Netgear XAVB101-100UKS Powerline AV Ethernet Adapter which acts as a bridge.
When I changed the configuration and connected the PC over WiFi then Nav connects as it should.
Unfortunately this is a problem as I need the speed of the Powerline Adapter for RDP connections to another PC and the distance is too great for a quality WiFi connection.
Anyway the mystery is solved. Many thanks for your help.

Well, this is kind of a big deal. Leading medical experts in Great Britain are telling pregnant moms not to assume they'll be giving birth in a hospital. Instead, they're saying (quite emphatically, in fact) that women should be given more of a chance to deliver their babies at home or in birth centers, the UK's Daily Mail is reporting.
Why? Because the docs at the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists are now saying that having a baby in a maternity ward isn't necessarily the safer option. And why is that? Because maternity wards are increasingly being staffed with inexperienced doctors and because of a shortage of trained midwives in hospitals. (FYI: home births in Great Britain had fallen to 2.4 percent in 2010, down from more than 33 percent in 1959, the Mail reports.)
Women who are expecting multiples, have diabetes, are obese or are in their 40s should still report to a hospital when contractions begin, the new report says. Of course, a fierce debate has ensued. One that is probably warranted when you consider that 14 percent of Brits who attempted home birth in 2003 ended up being taken to the hospital--and that birth centers don't offer epidurals, meaning one less option in the way of pain relief for a laboring mother.
Where do you stand on this one? Would you be interested in a home birth if your doctor told you it was a safe option?

Hey, everyone and welcome back to Hero Chat, SuperHeroHype's semi-regular superhero movie and comic book podcast for people who know how to read. We have our first very special guest this week, but before we get to that, here's my co-host, Mr. Spencer Perry! (applause)
Welcome back everyone! A lot of people want to know why we went for the show like this and not a straight podcast to which I must say, be patient, baby steps. Hero Chat the podcast may exist one day but for now it'll remain like this. Anyway, if you really dig what we're doing here, tell your friends! We have a lot of fun with this and hope you guys will stick with us. Back to you Ed!
Our first special guest for Hero Chat is Mr. Rick Marshall, who some may remember for his excellent work establishing MTV's Splash Page, but these days, he's a freelance writer for IFC, Movies.com, Fandango, Digital Trends and Spike TV and he can be found on Twitter as @RickMarshall. He's also one of my favorite people to talk comics with, so everyone give Rick a hand! We're also once again joined by ComingSoon.net's Los Angeles-based conspiracy theorist, Mr. Silas Lesnick!
(And remember that sometime in the near future, we're going to go out to our readers to join us for our chats, and we'll probably start with those who post nice things about Hero Chat in the comments!)
So you can keep track of who is speaking:
Edward Douglas
Spencer Perry
Silas Lesnick
Rick Marshall
There was a big announcement last week that 20th Century Fox were going with "X-Men: Days of Future Past" for the First Class sequel which got a lot of people really excited but also created a lot of interesting questions, the first one being "How on earth are they going to do this?!?!" Personally I think too many people are expecting a straight adaptation and that is not going to happen. What do you guys think?
Well we've never seen a comic book movie that is a straight adaptation of any storyline. It won't start with this.
True, even the Death of Phoenix in "The Last Stand" (which came from a plot by Vaughn) barely used any actual elements from the comics.
It also lets them potentially end with a rebooted universe a la Abram's Trek.
Rick, that's kinda cynical! Were you not a First Class fan?
It's interesting to me cause when I spoke to Simon Kinberg at Comic-Con, I learned three things… 1.) The sequel would focus on the four main characters and their relationships 2.) They were going to keep what worked, which included the period aspect of it 3.) That they're trying to keep it somewhat tied in with the other three movies but only loosely. What makes this interesting is that Days of Future Past is about someone coming from the X-Men's future to tell them about the world gone bad after the murder of Senator Kelly. The future of the First Class characters is the original three movies.
Unless like Silas said it's an Abrams' Star Trek style movie.
So which 4 characters are considered the main characters? Xavier, Magneto, and… I never got that there were any other "main" characters.
Yeah, how they work around Wolverine is going to be interesting.
Exactly why they should.
The same way Wolverine in "First Class" blew minds. I think fans would be angry and happy about that. There's no way they can use those two characters without fanboys getting bent out of shape about changes.
I can't imagine Cable working since Scott and Jean aren't really first class characters.
And then James McAvoy is like, why am I bald?
Right. Which is why I think it's going to be that story arc in name only, for the most part.
Maybe although they still have Hugh Jackman around as Wolverine and fans seemed to like the teases/cameos in First Class.
Agreed. It has a lot of potential where it doesn't need help from uber-popular storylines.
Exactly. It did well enough on its own w/ a conspicuously non-adherent story. Just go with it… Embrace that. In the words of Professor X, "take off your shoes and let the beast loose!"
I'm glad he said "shoes." Anything further to add on this or do we have to wait until other characters/cast is announced?
Longshot, people. Bring in Longshot.
That scene could be cool.
And if Guardians of the Galaxy is hit they can do Starjammers!
Too true… and it's shocking that they're all over 30 years old.
Oh, absolutely, but we've had some good ones that keep the tone and general themes alive, even with tweaks to the story details.
Very true.
Sin City and 300 are the closest we'll ever get.

Release curtesy of the Aberdeen Ironbirds.
The three representatives from the IronBirds—Cole McCurry, Caleb Joseph and Robbie Widlansky—certainly gave their best efforts in Tuesday night's 2008 New York-Penn League All-Star Game at Tri-City's Bruno Stadium.
But those efforts proved to be not quite enough, as the National League All-Stars rallied for three runs in the bottom of the ninth inning to down the American League bunch by a 4-3 score.
The Aberdeen trio played a role from start to finish. McCurry, who's gone 7-1 with a 2.67 ERA in 11 starts, became the first IronBird ever to toe the rubber as the starting pitcher in an All-Star Game. The southpaw allowed an infield single to Tri-City's Jack Shuck but otherwise was solid, retiring the other three batters he faced and throwing nine of his 14 total pitches for strikes.
Batavia's Frederick Parejo hit a solo homer in the fifth to give the National Leaguers a 1-0 lead that held until the seventh.
Joseph, who entered in the fifth as a defensive replacement, worked a 2-0 count from Williamsport's Brian Rosenberg before ripping a line drive single to left-center field to lead off the seventh. The backstop then took second base on a wild pitch and came around to score on a single by Hudson Valley's Jason Tweedy that tied the game at 1-1. RBI singles by Mike Gosse (Oneonta) and Mitch Dening (Lowell) put the American League squad up 3-1.
Widlansky, who also entered in the fifth and went 0-for-2 at the plate, had a chance to preserve the American League All-Stars' victory with two outs in the bottom of the ninth. A deep fly ball to left by Tri-City's David Flores took Widlansky onto the warning track, where he gloved the ball for what appeared to be the game's final out.
But it was not to be, as Widlansky's momentum carried him into the outfield fence and the ball popped out of his glove, allowing both National League runners to score for a 4-3 win.
Oneonta's Tyler Stohr took the loss, giving up an RBI single to Shuck earlier in the ninth before allowing the game-ending double to Flores.
Batavia's Adam Reifer pitched a scoreless ninth and got the win.
The victory was the first for the National League since 2005, when it took a 5-4 contest at Brooklyn's KeySpan Park in the inaugural New York-Penn League All-Star Game.

Mobile continues to vex Microsoft
Imagine, just for a moment, a world without the iPhone. It's tough, I know. Essentially every touchscreen experience you're having today has been fundamentally shaped or directly influenced by Apple's smartphone. But today, let's take a quick step back to early 2007, when Apple had yet to introduce its industry-changing device.
Back then, Microsoft had nearly 40 percent of the mobile market share. The OS it hawked was nothing compared to Windows Phone 7, and not just by direct comparison. Even for its time, Microsoft on mobile was a clunky, frustrating mess. But still, it had 40 percent of the market. Fast forward to today. It's more than a year since Microsoft unveiled an ambitious, stylish operating system on some very strong hardware (the initial HTC handsets were great) and its market share is plummeting, down 50 percent from the same time last year. According to comScore, Microsoft's mobile share is down to 3.9 percent of the total market this year, and it isn't going up.
Microsoft's modern mobile operating system wasn't too little. In fact, it's pretty damn solid. It's just too late. Way too late. Redmond is still trying to find a way to make things work but everything is a non-starter. Even the deal with Nokia, which has already turned out a device that can rival the iPhone, will do nothing to save Windows Phone 7, and it's easy to see why. There is no reason to switch.
Last March I was given an HTC Inspire for review. It was my first serious experience with Android and I fell in love. The integration with Google products, the notification bar that has since been cannibalized by Apple, the flexibility and power in different handsets and ROMs – I loved all of it. I dropped my iPhone and haven't looked back. What does Microsoft have? Bing? Xbox Live? The first might be a joke, but Xbox Live is pretty serious business. If there's one place Apple and Google fail, it's social. Could Microsoft find a way to take the world's most volatile gaming network and turn it into a mobile powerhouse?
Maybe, but it's hard to imagine users suddenly abandoning app stores for whatever Microsoft might throw together. Of course, it was also hard to imagine a world without Symbian but here we are. Even so, a compelling social offer probably wouldn't be enough, and Xbox Live is too niche to really carry Windows Phone. Unfortunately for the good people in Redmond, "just as good as those other guys" is not going to be nearly good enough. If Microsoft wants to regain market share of any kind, they need to something huge–I'm talking smartphones embedded on human retinas and eardrums huge–to be relevant in the mobile universe.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6 (UPI) -- Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has cut off more than six inches of her long, dirty blonde hair, UsMagazine.com reported Wednesday.
The 44-year-old former "Friends" star told Vogue.com her longtime hairstylist Chris McMillan is responsible for her new hairdo.
"Chris McMillan actually chopped all my hair off!" she told Vogue.com.
"I actually don't have any red carpets coming up. This is truly just for me!" she said. "It's right at my jaw line, maybe a little longer. It was kind of spur-of-the-moment. I don't know, man. I did it! I feel great. I feel lighter. It's simple, it's really simple, that's for sure."

It's the issue that just won't go away. When Congress passed the 2008 farm bill, the National Cotton Council, the USA Rice Federation, U.S. Rice Producers Association and other farm groups thought they had put the debate on payment limit rules to rest.
The ink was barely dry on the document in June when Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, and Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., the Senate's permanent payment limit gadflies, sent a letter to Agriculture Secretary Ed Schafer demanding that USDA go beyond the language in the farm bill and deny benefits to growers who do not fit tougher new payment limit standards.
Now another group of senators and House members, all from the South, have written Schafer advising him that USDA should not cause "serious disruptions" in current farming operations by proposing unwarranted changes in the way it makes actively engaged farming determinations.
Twenty senators and more than 40 House members signed separate letters requesting that USDA officials expedite the publication of rules for changes to adjusted gross income and other payment limit rules that are contained in the new farm bill.
"Although the 2008 farm bill provides expedited rule-making for most farm program provisions, sections 1603 and 1604 containing the payment limit and adjusted gross income limitation reforms were specifically required to be implemented through the promulgation of an interim rule," the senators said in their letter.
"We request that USDA publish these regulations for public comment at the earliest possible date so farmers have an opportunity to review and comment on the proposed regulations."
The senators said some farmers must make significant adjustments in existing operations to comply with the new rules, and those farmers who will no longer be eligible for program benefits will have to take that into consideration when planning for their 2009 crops and beyond.
The 2008 farm bill requires significant reforms in payment limitations and eligibility but does not require changes in the way individuals or entities are determined to be "actively-engaged-in-farming," the senators said, adding that implementation of two new income tests and direct attribution will cause significant challenges and require adjustments for many farming operations.
Under the 2008 bill, sign-up for 2009 should begin in October, they said. The law requires that advance Direct Payments be available in December, meaning that the Farm Services Administration and farmers must know the rules before signing up and requesting payments.
"It is important to note that the 2008 farm bill does not require USDA to make any changes to the way individuals and entities are determined to be "actively-engaged" in farming except in the case of a spouse," the senators' letter said.
"Although the 2008 farm bill did end the discrimination against spouses being considered as equal farming partners, the change was designed to mesh with existing rules and regulations. Furthermore, we believe it is vitally important to maintain as much consistency as possible with the 2002 farm bill in this important determination given the significant impact of eliminating the three-entity rule and application of two new adjusted gross income tests.
They said interjecting unnecessary changes in the operation of the farm programs "will not only cause further confusion and uncertainty for our farmers but will also go well beyond the Congressional intent of this narrowly crafted provision."
The ink wasn't quite dry on the senators' letter before environmental groups issued statements asking Secretary Schafer to ignore it and the House members letter and the new law's payment limit provisions.
Calling it an attempt to make an "end run around the farm bill deal on payment limitations," the Washington, D.C.-based Sustainable Agriculture Coalition said it took strong issue with the letter written by the senators and House members.
"Both the U.S Government Accountability Office and the USDA Commission on the Application of Payment Limitations for Agriculture named the "actively engaged in farming" rules as a key feature of current policy that leads to frequent abuse and weakens the integrity of the programs," said Ferd Hoefner, the SAC's policy director.
"In addition, the GAO identified and illustrated associated schemes and devices used by unscrupulous subsidy beneficiaries to channel government payments through non-farming entities back to themselves."
Hoefner agrees that the issues revolve around interpretation of an agreement reached in the final farm bill negotiations in May that resulted in passage of the law nearly nine months after it was scheduled to be completed.
"Principal investigators struck a compromise outlined in the Statement of the Managers accompanying the bill that mandates USDA to rewrite the rules related to actively engaged farming definitions and to schemes and devices, and issue those new rules for public notice and comment," he said. "As part of the compromise, the language in the Statement is completely neutral. It requires USDA to rewrite the rules, but does not say whether the Department should loosen or tighten the rules."
Hoefner said the Grassley-Dorgan letter in June urged USDA to take immediate action to promulgate the new regulation and eliminate the abusive loopholes. The Senators also suggested particular revisions.
"It is simply not true that the farm bill does not require changes to actively engaged rules and schemes and devices employed to evade payment limitations," said Hoefner. "The Managers of the farm bill did not say how to change the rules, that is true, but USDA remains under an obligation to issue a new set of rules for public notice and comment.
"The working family farmers we represent strongly encourage USDA to pursue their obligations under the terms of the farm bill conference report and to ignore any attempt to try an end run around the compromise. In our view, a deal is a deal. The only confusion and uncertainty now being injected into the debate is by those who want to renege on the deal."
Speaking at the Sunbelt Expo Tuesday (Oct. 14), Mark Keenum, undersecretary of agriculture for farm and foreign agricultural services, said USDA intends to follow congressional intent when writing the rules for the new law.
"We will do exactly what Congress asked us to do," he said in comments at a luncheon honoring the Southeastern Farmer of the Year at the Sunbelt Ag Expo in Moultrie, Ga. "That is our mission and our objective as we continue this process."

TRENTON — Some New Jersey election watchdog groups are worried about the security of letting displaced New Jersey residents vote by email.
Rutgers-Newark Law School Professor Penny Venetis says that when New Jersey residents living overseas vote by email, they also must send a paper ballot so that vote-counters can verify the results.
She says that she wants New Jersey election officials to put in place the same rules for people displaced by last week's storm to vote online.
Venetis says that if the state does not clarify the rules, election advocates might file a lawsuit later Monday to try to stop the email voting.
State election officials have been silent on the issue.

Ah, the meaninglessness of life....something I think about quite often. I try not to dwell but tend to when I'm by my lonesome. Left to my own devices I fear I would be lost and drowning inside my own head.
Nevertheless I have a family and friends, a job and other responsibilities. So most of the time the meaninglessness of life is drowned out by the little things...cooking dinner, helping with homework, laughing at a joke, and so on.
So I don't know that I actually deal with it, I just ignore or forget about it while actually living. Or maybe that is how I deal....I go on going...I live and have fun.
It's interesting to me how many people feel angst when alone. I have always felt more alone around people. I am most content when I am alone. Well can't say alone, I have dogs and cats and chickens. I'm most content when I'm not around people.
Hi Maggie,
I see you are in the 14-17 age range. I don't recall experiencing existential angst at your age, and that's probably because I was under the spell of fundamentalist Christianity. I thought that upon my death angels would usher me into Heaven. Since I no longer have that fantasy to comfort me, I've had plenty of episodes of existential angst. The mystery of my own existence can sometimes feel oppressive. I'm now 54 years old, and just last Saturday I attended my father's funeral, so death has been on my mind.
I don't have a solution to existential angst. I once thought that if I read a lot about death, studied it intensely, examined it logically, then the fear of death would dissipate. That didn't work. However, I did discover a few books that I found helpful. You might want to check them out.
"Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Terror of Death" by Irvin D. Yalom.
"Nothing to Be Frightened Of" by Julian Barnes.
I've never been as bottomlessly scared as I was in my fundamentalist childhood - for the christian god, for hell, for heaven, for judgment, for not finding the calling they said I should feel, for things that go bump in the night, there was no end to my angst. Becoming an atheist was the solution for me: I calmed down at last and have led a fearless life from that time - if not without painful confrontations with my parents.
Hi Chris,
Obviously we had different childhood experiences with fundamentalism. Despite the Sunday morning, Sunday night, and mid-week church attendance/brainwashing, I don't recall being scared. I think I was mostly annoyed that I was missing out on some good television programming. So I must not have been thinking too deeply about religious issues. The pain and frustration largely started when I began my apologetics studies; in my efforts to rationally defend the faith, I discovered the irrationality of Christianity and lost my faith. Though atheism has liberated me from a load of falsehoods, I can't help occasionally getting the chills when I contemplate the mysteries of existence and my own mortality.
Maybe this applies to other people and not just me: I think part of my brain knows that any day I might quit living, but another part of my brain "knows" that I will be alive tomorow. If part of my brain didn't "know" that I will be alive tomorow (if I actually thought any given day was my last day), then I guess I would freak out and/or go into some kind of panic mode and/or go crazy and then I wouldn't properly live that day.
When it comes down to it, at the minimum, (at least part of my brain thinks that) the only thing in the universe that matters is that I am self aware, so that even if the rest of my body didn't work, the only thing that would matter would be my being self aware for all eternity.
I can't imagine being old. I don't understand how old people can stand it. Is there a certain age, may be 70?, 80? 90? 120?, when at a certain point, you freak out and go into some kind of panic mode and realize that you can no longer pretend that you "know" that you will be alive tomorow? At a certain age, every time you see a movie, it might be your last movie; every time you do anything, that might be the last time you do that activity. When you are a certain age, if you start to read a book you might not finish it, if you begin to make a model airplain you might not finish it, if someone visits you, you might not finish the visit. I guess at a certain age, when you have any ach or pain or symptom, you have to make a tough decision about whether to go to the hospital now or finish the activity you are doing - what you are doing might be the last time you can ever do it and it would be a shame to quit when you are not done yet just to go to the hospital and use up time you could have spent doing your activity, but no matter what you might die very soon and you have to decide where you want to die and who the last people you want to see should be...and if you have a lot of achs and pains over a period of maybe a year, your family can't just drop everything and rush to see you every time you think you are about to die, and if this happens and you are healthy one moment and dead the next your family won't be there when you quit living and if you get some bad disease and are in a hospital bed 24/7 for awhile before you die, that would really suck...
"I can't imagine being old. I don't understand how old people can stand it."
What will you do then? Cling to the age you like best? You know that cannot be done and in such a mood you would miss all the best of the years when you are older. None of us can be sure that we´ll finish the books we´re reading, not even the very young.
Growing older can be very pleasant: I am no longer terrorized by hormones and I feel much more stable. I know more of myself and of the world I live in - I´ve learned how to cope with most of it. And I´m not jealous of the young, on the contrary! But I´m only 57, anything might happen yet ;-)
I am largely past my personal era of existential angst, now I suffer from very real temporal angst. My advice for someone suffering from what you describe, is to find something(s) you love to do, and someone(s) you love to love... of course I still haven't been able to follow my own advice, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't. I have experience with suffering, loneliness, and nihilism... these experiences have taught me nothing overall, except that you treasure, joy, love, and serenity... of course I always knew this mentally, but to actually feel it, is another thing altogether.
I have also had, quite recently, an experience of lost time. It happened to be when I had my wisdom teeth out, and I was 'put under' by the anesthetic... That hour when they were drilling out my messed up teeth, does not exist for me. No dreams, no nothing. This is what I imagine death to be like, nothing, not a void, but nothing, no consciousness to perceive. So there really is nothing to be afraid of... except for pain and the decline before death... unless you are afraid of dreamless sleep. I go to bed everyday, with the expectation of getting up again, but if I didn't, that's that.
So far I sadly haven't experienced any amazing lucid dreaming, or astral travel... it's disappointing I guess, but meh, what is... is

The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones: Volume 3 (US - DVD R1)
Just in time for the Old Indy Gabe checks out the Adventures of the Young Indy...
The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones is a strange series comparable to both television serialization and standard theatrical films. I never watched the show when it originally aired, so my personal analysis here is only going to be in reference to this third DVD collection, which includes 'chapters' sixteen through twenty two. Simple wikipedia.org research tells me that these chapters are presented in chronological order rather then airing order, and that all but two of them were originally presented as two, forty-five minute episodes, which makes total sense in hindsight.
This collection takes place between the years of 1917 and 1920, mostly pertaining to the winding up of World War I, where Young Indiana is working undercover for the French Foreign Legion. The idea behind the series is that of edutainment rather than Saturday morning serial throw-back. This is my initial and lasting issue with the entire series—I was expecting a smaller scale version of the Indiana Jones film series, not a supernatural light historical lesson. My expectations aside, Indy's meetings with history's greatest all-stars is convoluted, and a little bit like playing 'Where in Time is Carmen San Diego' or watching an episode of Mr. Peabody, but once you get into the groove it's actually a rather effective way to learn a bit of world history.
I am introduced to the world of Young Indiana Jones through Tales of Innocence, which is unfortunately the weakest chapter of the bunch. The first half sees Indy delicately balancing an undercover mission convincing WWI Germans to defect, and a pretty Italian lassie with multiple beaus. Indy starts putting more thought into the man giving his intended better gifts than his mission, when he happens upon a young ambulance driver named Ernie Hemingway, who offers his hand in the matter. In this half Indy learns the age old lesson of bros before hos. The second half is an even more sedate look at love where Indy and an aging Edith Wharton spend a whole lot of time together in Morocco.
Chapter two, Masks of Evil is more like it, starting with a super-stylized noir tale, in which Indy, posing as a Swedish journalist, is given important espionage information right before discovering that there is a trader among his allies. Meanwhile, a paranoid Jones asks a missionary to marry him. It doesn't end well, and soon he finds himself whisked away to Romania on special assignment. In the only supernaturally tinged section of this entire set, Indy and his fellow agents face off against the evil of Vlad the Impaler, or Dracula to his friends.
Treasure of the Peacock's Eye is one of two episodes that almost feels like a cohesive whole rather then two halves. It's also the only episode in this entire collection (which is my only knowledge of the series) that involves the usual Indiana Jones staples of daring do in the name of treasure hunting. This chapter sees Indy and his pleasantly plump Belgian buddy Remy seeking out a giant diamond at the close of World War I. After months of misadventure the pair end up shipwrecked on a New Guinea-ish island where they meet Dr. Bronislaw Malinowski. Malinowski and Indy have a heart to heart where he decides that chasing jewellery to the ends of the earth simply isn't worth the trouble.
Winds of Change is one of the most convoluted chapters, but it has a more filmic feel, and takes a controversial political stance. Through the magic of screenwriting, Indy gets a job as a translator for the United States during the post-WWI peace talks, where he watches French Premier George Clemenceau, British Prime Minister David Lloyd-George and United States President Woodrow Wilson ream the Germans. Between talks Indy lunches with super lefties Gertrude Bell, Arnold Toynbee, and Lawrence of Arabia. The episode takes are pretty distinct stance on the guilt of the Allied powers, in ignoring Ho Chi Min, lying to the Arab nations, and decimating the Germans, thus leaving the country ripe for Hitler's plucking—pretty heady stuff for info-attainment.
In the second half of Winds of Change Indy finally finds his way back home, where he's coldly and harshly greeted by his father (actor Lloyd Owen fortunately doesn't do a hammy Sean Connery impersonation). This seems to be an important moment in the Indiana Jones mythos, because I'm assuming it's the last time Indy and his father see each other before the adventures of the Last Crusade.
Mystery of the Blues is a slightly heavy-handed look at jazz and racism in the era, but features more soon to be stars then any episode on the set. The cast includes Jeffrey Wright as Sidney Bichet, Jay Underwood revising his role as Ernest Hemingway (now a news man in Chicago), Keith David as King Oliver, and Nicholas Turturro as Al Capone. That piano player is Damon, not Forrest Whitaker. Of course, the biggest surprise is a cameo by Harrison Ford, as older Indy, who frames the story. This was to be Ford's only participation with the entire series, apparently.
The chapter isn't as evenly divided into halves as others in the collection, but the gangster murder case plot definitely feels separate from the jazz/racism plot. Though it is again, quite convoluted, the series writers must be given credit for winding together Indy, Ernie Hemingway, Eliot Ness, and Al Capone into a cohesive narrative. With the exception of the embarrassing scenes of Sean Patrick Flanery pretending to play an alto sax, this may've been my favourite episode in the collection. The dialogue is really witty (screenwriter and originator of the screwball comedy Ben Hecht is a character and inspiration), and there are several laugh out loud moments.
The Scandal of 1920 is a cute chapter, but quite light weight following the hefty drama of Winds of Change and thick comedy of Mystery of the Blues. In this, the most 'chick-flicky' chapter young Indiana meets three different girls upon his arrival in New York City—and singer looking to break into Broadway, a haughty-taughty intellectual, and a high society aristocrat. Scoring a job behind the Broadway curtain complicates matters. Scandal of 1920 is a one-parter, and the shortest chapter, culminating in a big staged finally where Indy learns that falling for more then one girl may be too much trouble.
The final chapter, seemingly ever, The Hollywood Follies ends things on an up and buoyant note. Indy is sent to Hollywood by film icon Carl Laemmle to force maverick director Erich von Stroheim to complete his movie Foolish Wives within ten days or close down the filming. Indy is promised a $300 now bonus if he succeeds. When he gets to Hollywood he joins forces with producer Irving Thalberg and writer Claire Leebrum, the later of which he (of course) falls in love with. When Stoheim proves impossible to overcome, Indy is forced to take a job working as an assistant for a young Jack (John) Ford. The rest of the episode is basically an ode to the directorial prowess of Ford, and ends with a nice homage to Raiders of the Lost Ark's truck chase.
Multi-million dollar television series aren't unheard of in 2008, CSI], Lost, and many HBO original series regularly top one million dollars per episode. According to wikipedia Young Indiana Jones usually topped 1.5 million per episode, which was pretty strange in the mid '90s, especially for a show that didn't have great numbers. The series does look expensive, and features some state of the art special effects (George Lucas used the series to test effects methods), but the cost was cut by filming on 16mm film, which creates a few minor problems for this DVD release.
Mostly this is a colourful and clear transfer, but the age and stock makes for an overall softness, especially in wide and medium shots (close-ups look pretty good). The compositions appear flat when the lighting isn't overtly stylized or high in contrast. Fedora brown is a common colour throughout every episode, and sometimes these shake a bit with greens and blues. Warm colours also have a tendency to bleed a bit into backgrounds. Blacks aren't quite perfect, but they add definition to some of the flatter shots. Also, if you look really, really close at some of my screencaps you can see a thin light yellow strip running down the left side of the frame. This is the most prominent artefact in the collection.
It's called Dolby Surround, and it reads as Pro-Logic on my screen, but this is effectively a stereo track. This isn't unexpected, as mid-'90s television isn't known for its engulfing surround production, though with all the effort put into the extras, and George Lucas' penchant for fiddling, it wouldn't have been a shock to hear a 5.1 remix. The track is clear, and without discernable distortion, but the mixing can be a little uneven, giving dialogue the benefit over effects and music. The trench warfare beginning of Treasure of the Peacock's Eye is probably the most impressive sound in the collection, though the jazz and blues of Mystery of the Blues is effective as well, almost creating the effective of actual live music.
The series score, much to my surprise, only took cues from John Williams' original film music for one episode (when Harrison Ford fights at the end of Mystery of the Blues). Laurence Rosenthal theme takes pieces from Williams' theme, but is generally more simplified, almost as if Young Indiana Jones hasn't quite earned those extra notes yet.
This set comes as a huge surprise. I had no idea these collections were so monumental until I loaded the first disc. The educational value of the episodes is, not surprisingly, a bit middling, but each acts as a sufficient jumping off point for further study. Before these discs surfaced we'd have to take a trip to the library, blindly grope about the internet, or just pray that the History Channel happened to feature a special on the subject. Now, thanks to a lot of hard work, we have our episodes and historical documentaries all in one place.
The Young Indiana Jones timeline is one that makes these docs especially informative for yours truly, as I'm pretty unfamiliar with the World War 1 era, especially the ins and outs of the Arabian sections of the war (everything not covered in Lawrence of Arabia, of course). I'm already running late on this review, and that the titles speak for themselves, so I'm not going to review each of the 31 featurettes. Instead I'm just going to assure everyone that these are high quality productions, which move briskly without sacrificing any of the important facts. Here's a listing of the featurettes and the chapter they pertain too. Each doc runs somewhere between 20 and 35 minutes, and will apparently be shown on the History channel soon.
Disc One: Tales of Innocence
Unhealed Wounds: The Life of Ernest Hemingway
The Secret Life of Edith Wharton
Lowell Thomas: American Storyteller
The French Foreign Legion: The World's Most Legendary Fighting Force
Disc Two: Masks of Evil
For the People Despite the People: The Ataturk Revolution
The Greedy Heart of Halide Edib
Dracula: Fact and Fiction
The Ottoman Empire: A World of Difference
Disc Three: Treasure of the Peacock's Eye
Bronislaw Malinowski: God Professor
Anthropology: Looking at the Human Condition
New Guinea: Paradise in Peril
Disc Five (the extras are on their own disc): Winds of Change
Woodrow Wilson: American Idealist
Gertrude Bell: Iraq's Uncrowned Queen
Ho Chi Minh: The Price of Freedom
Paul Robeson: Scandalize My Name
Robert Goddard: Mr. Rocket Science
The Best Intentions: The Paris Peace Conference and the Treaty of Versailles
Disc Seven (again, the extras are on their own disc): Mystery of the Blues
Al "Scarface" Capone: The Original Gangster
Ben Hecht: Shakespeare of Hollywood
On the Trail of Eliot Ness
Louis Armstrong: Ambassador of Jazz
Jazz: Rhythms of Freedom
Prohibition: America on the Rocks
Hellfighters: Harlem's Heroes of World War One
Disc Eight: The Scandal of 1920
Tin Pan Alley: Soundtrack of America
Broadway: America Center Stage
Wonderful Nonsense: The Algonquin Roundtable
Disc Nine: The Hollywood Follies
Erich von Stroheim: The Profligate Genius
The World of John Ford
Irving Thalberg: Hollywood's Boy Wonder
The Rise of the Moguls: The Men Who Built Hollywood
Disc ten features a DVD-Rom game and DVD-Rom 'Interactive Timeline'. Both are fun but not exactly meaty extras. The entire set is finished off with a historical lecture entitled 'New Gods for Old', which pans over the larger historical issues of the era in about a one hour period. The lecture covers some of the same ground as the featurettes, but doesn't repeat much, and actually fill in a couple blanks.
I come to this series almost entirely blind, and slowly built a real affection for the actors and edutainment story telling style. The show isn't one I'm thinking I'll revisit any time soon, but the collections thirty-one historical featurettes may find their way back into the player for a refresher in the not to distant future. The set is pretty damn pricy, but it's more worth the extra scratch then the painfully overpriced HBO season collections, even if the show isn't quite as good.

i see a harrison ford pic up there, so i take it his segment made it intact? or is it simply an extra or easter egg? cuz i read that with the new "movie" format they employed for the dvds that the opening monologues by "old indy" had disappeared so i figured this meant harrison's cameo would go too but apparently not.
Gabe Powers Editor Join Date: September 2004 Location: United States Posts: 4,721
There aren't any 'Old Indy' monologues, but Ford is at the beginning and end of one episode. Only one. It makes the whole thing kind of weird.

Too bad they didn't include the old Indy stuff as an extra, but the Harrison Ford cameo was part of the original two hour TV movie (they switched to that format late in the original ABC run before it switched over to the Family Channel.

This was an o.k. series. Lucas, like he did with the "Star Wars" prequels, drops the ball here (you don't see Spielberg's name anywhere near this series).
The problem for me was that Lucas took the Indiana Jones character & turned him into a historical Forrest Gump. Every week it seemed that Jones was running into one or more historical figures & it got old on me real fast. The Harrison Ford appearance was o.k. but the dialogue was stilted. Lines like "Come on Greycloud, we are almost there." & "Hang on Greycloud!" do not an Emmy nomination make.
As for the old senior citizen Indy. He's a pain in everyone's a*s striking up a converation with anyone that walks past (it was intended to jumpstart each episode), & he lost an eye, making him wear an eye patch that makes him look like the monkeyman in "Raiders". Thanks a lot George.

New Orleans Haunted B&B!
New Orleans Haunted B&B!While most going businesses want to keep their ghosts in the closet so as not to frighten off clientele, the Magnolia Mansion has cleverly built its business around multiple ghosts and wish its ghosts would invite their friends! Here the ghosts are friendly with a sense of humor, where ghostly children tease you by moving things around during the night to watch your reaction the next morning. There are reports of a ghostly maid who will tuck you in at night, a child who walks the halls and a bearded man who spends his time downstairs! Designed by architect James H. Calrow and completed in 1858 from fortunes made from cotton, Magnolia Mansion is one of New Orleans most photographed homes in the Historic Garden District and considered to be one of the most important examples of Antebellum architecture. It was also the headquarters of the American Red Cross during World War II. A raised Greek Revival mansion of approximately 13,369sf, there are 13 bedrooms and 14 full baths that could be changed back into a single-family estate. A perfect place to hold your "Spooktacular Gatherings†and "Ghostly Galas!" Asking price is $3.2M.

Suddenly I am also a sphere wandering around and around, and disappearing into the space.

Published at Friday, 23 March 2018. Shoe Rack. By Cheryl Copeland.
Keep in mind, It wont be all that convenient to keep the shoes you wear all the time in an under the bed organizer. But this is the perfect space for those special occasion shoes that dont get that much use. Then use a shoe rack that will organize the rest of the shoes you wear on a regular basis in a more convenient place using a stackable rack in your closet or on an over the door rack.
Next, you should find out if you prefer an open or closed shoe storage cabinet. Which style you favor ultimately comes down to personal preference. If you would like to stash away your footwear, then buying a closed cabinet may well be a better choice for you. Keep in mind though that you will not have straightforward access to your shoes which means you will occasionally need to search for the pair of shoes you want to put on. On the other hand, if you are just shopping for a place to organize your footwear and prefer simple access to the set you intend to wear, then an open one could work out much better for you. You just have got to deal with the boots and shoes being in eye sight.
With so many different shoe rack design options to choose from it can be hard to choose the best idea for your home. Naturally youll want something that will not only keep your shoes organized, but easy to retrieve them as well.

20 Beautiful Kitchens With Butcher Block Countertops
I have a soft spot for butcher block countertops. I love their beauty, warmth, how well they go with a variety of kitchen styles, and of course, their affordability. (IKEA's ever-popular NUMERAR beech countertops start at $129 for six feet.) They do require proper care and maintenance to keep them looking their best, but if you're okay with that, then it's a wonderful look for the kitchen. Here are 20 examples to prove it:
A few Kitchn readers raved about their butcher block countertops in this post. One commenter, Irene, called her cheap IKEA countertops "the best, so warm and natural." She treats the countertops annually with tung oil, and loves how they've aged: "I really like the character that the knife and occasional burn marks add, like an antique French butcher block countertop."
Do you have butcher block countertops in your kitchen, or are you considering them in the future? Share your thoughts!

Patriot Xporter XT Rage 32GB Flash Drive Review
When you think of computer storage, normally what comes to mind are beefy hard drives. There is another storage format that is used daily, but sometimes overlooked - portable storage, or more specifically, thumb drives. Thumb drives have increased in popularity, especially with the large capacities and lower prices consumers have seen lately. Thumb drives are considered the floppy disks of today - just about everyone I know has one in their purse, pocket, or backpack, and they fulfill a number of uses. Thumb drives are so available everywhere you go, I have even seen them in the aisle displays at the grocery store. When it comes to picking a thumb drive, there are several considerations that you need to make. Size and speeds are always factors, but not many manufacturers consider write speeds when advertising them. Most only display the read speeds, which are always higher. When you need fast write speeds, you really need to do your homework.
One drive designed to give you not only fast read speeds, but quick write speeds as well, is the Xporter XT Rage series by Patriot. Patriot designed the Rage series with write speeds in mind. The company used a Quad Channel configuration for the NAND Flash chips, which boost the write speeds to blazing fast speeds. Today we are going to be taking a look at the 32GB version of the Patriot Xporter XT Rage, which claims to have a write speed of 25MB/s using the quad channel design. Will it make the difference and live up to the expectations? There is only one way to tell, so let's take a good look at the design and put it on the testing bench.
Closer Look:
The Patriot Xporter XT Rage comes packaged in a secure blister pack that needs some attention to get it out. There are no perforations, so be prepared to cut around your prized component. On the front of the packaging there are some of the key points of the device, such as the 32GB capacity of this one in particular. There is also the Quad Channel logo and a statement of up to 25MB/s write speeds, which we will definitely put to the test. On the back of the package there are some of the specifications of the drive, such as retractable capless design, USB 2.0, and driverless support for most operating systems. This particular drive also supports Windows 7 operating systems, though surprisingly it does not support Windows Ready Boost. When I plugged in the drive and tested it for Ready Boost it gave me an error that the drive does not conform to specifications to support Ready Boost.
The design of the Patriot Rage is well thought out. The drive has a rubber coating that grips better, keeping it from sliding off a desk or out of your hands. This adds to the durability that the device has, which protects it from drops and shakes, extending the life of the drive. One big thing you might notice and really like is that there is no cap on the drive. The housing is retractable and slides back to reveal the USB connector. No more losing your cap, which quickly gets very old. The Patriot Rage is mechanically designed with speed in mind as well. The Rage uses four NAND Flash chips to store data. When the data is written, it is intelligently managed and transferred simultaneously between the four NAND chips in basically what I amounts to a RAID-0 style setup, increasing the speeds. The Patriot Rage boasts read speeds up to 27MB/s and write speeds up to 25MB/s.
Now that we have the drive out of the package, we can really see what it can do.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no Open Call for Artwork at this time. The 2012 Competition Artwork is currently on tour. Please check back for news about upcoming Online Competitions, or check the "Exhibitors" tab for information about hosting an exhibit.
Question: I am turning 19 soon; can I still enter the competition?
Answer: You can participate at age 19 if you were (born on or after September 1, 1993).
Question: How do I enter?
Answer: To enter, complete a web-based entry form and attach/upload electronic artwork files as required for the specific art category. For detailed information on the process for entering the competition, please refer to the "Guidelines" and "How to Enter" section on this website.
Question: Will there be winners from each art category and both age groups within that category? Or will there just be two winners over all?
Answer: There will be winners selected in at least every category and subcategory for a given age group, but also possibly more.
Question: What is the content of the art entries supposed to be?
Answer: The purpose of the competition is to encourage today's young people to learn about human space exploration and express their vision of "How will humans use science and technology to explore space, and what mysteries will we uncover?" We believe that the art competition will help bring the ideas of participating youth worldwide to space exploration leaders and other youth and adults.
Question: We want to produce a music or dance video, which guidelines should we follow?
- A music video could follow the video guidelines and submission process for the live action or slide show subcategory, as most appropriate. Submitting this artwork as a musical entry is likely less appropriate, since the file types accepted for musical artwork are limited to audio and sheet music file types.
- Multiple entries from the same person/group are allowed, so if the music for a video is the artist(s)' original creation, and he/she would also like it judged as a musical composition entry, he/she could follow the musical composition guidelines and submit the music as a separate music artwork entry as well as submit the video as a video artwork entry. If the music is submitted in this matter, the musical composition entry could be slightly longer than a video.
- If dance is really the main feature of a video, then an artist should follow the guidelines and submission process for the dance video.
Question: Do we need to pre-register to participate in the competition? Do we register now or after the artist has finished the work for the contest?
- There is no pre-registration process. Artists enter the competition through the online entry system by the posted deadline of 11:59 US Central Standard Time November 18, 2012. Artists should not try to submit to the competition until they have completed their artwork.
- Complete entry instructions are available on the program website at http://www.humansinspaceart.org or http://www.dsls.usra.edu/meetings/IAA/artContest/. The guidelines for the art categories are also available online and describe the criteria to be followed for each art category.
Question: Can an adult (such as a teacher) submit on behalf of more than one participant?
Answer: Yes, but a parent or guardian signed agreement is still required for each artist.
Question: May I submit photographs to the competition?
Answer: Yes. Original photography is an acceptable art form for entry in the 2D visual art category. If it is not digital photography, simply scan the photo and upload that scanned image to the online entry form. Please note that written permission must be received from all persons included in the photograph. If you plan to use photographs taken by other artists in the creation of your art, you must have permission from the original artist(s) if the photo is not in the public domain and therefore may be subject to copyright laws.

Soccer official: speeding tickets hurt Ohio tourney
FAIRFIELD, Ohio (AP) -- A soccer tournament official in Ohio says hundreds of speeding tickets issued last year through a mobile speed camera are partly to blame for low registration for this year's event.
The JournalNews of Hamilton reports that the Mid- American Soccer Classic director says 906 tickets were issued for drivers caught by the camera on the Hamilton road leading into the Fairfield site.
Director Ann Yungbluth says more than 500 teams had registered for the tournament by this time last year. Only about 400 had registered by last Wednesday for this year's April event.
The Hamilton police chief last year said he didn't know about the tournament and later ordered the tickets canceled.
But Yungbluth says the ticketing appears to have had lasting effects on this year's registration

The Recording Academy and CBS announced the dates Monday. The 2014 event will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Both shows will air live on CBS.
This year's awards show was seen by 28.4 million people, the second-largest audience for the program since 1993, according to the Nielsen company.
Last year, 39.9 million people tuned in to see how the industry would react to Whitney Houston's death just before the awards and celebrate the coronation of its hottest star, Adele, who won six Grammys.
This year's show featured the musical return of Justin Timberlake, collaborations honoring Bob Marley and Levon Helm, and performances by the majority of stars up for major awards.
The Grammy Awards are billed as "music's biggest night."
