To most people, a major earthquake that happened in February 2011 seems like old news. But for residents of Christchurch, New Zealand, particularly the children, normalcy has yet to return. Spring in the town of Christchurch used to mean daffodils and families traversing parks, but since the disaster, it takes more than sunshine to brighten the spirits of preschoolers whose lives were turned upside down.
Patsy Hill, a member of the Takapuna, New Zealand, Kiwanis Club, felt like everyone she met was shell-shocked by the disaster. Both as a devoted grandmother to young children and someone involved in a program that helps children who are grieving, she broadcasted a message for help.
Twelve clubs answered the call, and with Hill as the district's project chairwoman, they began sewing and stuffing springtime trauma dolls made from floral fabrics. Three members of the Kiwanis Club of Takapuna drove more than 670 miles to Christchurch to distribute the 1,059 dolls—made by Kiwanians across the North Island, New Caledonia and Tahiti—to children in preschools, kindergartens and other child agencies.
"It was very moving to see the 'shine' in the eyes of children who had been so reserved when we had first arrived," Hill recalls.
But they didn't stop there. Keen to ensure the children and their families did not feel as if the world had forgotten them, Hill initiated another project: making tiny teddy bear finger puppets. Five clubs produced nearly 900 puppets that were distributed following the children's return to school from summer break, along with clothing and blankets collected and made by other clubs.
"It has been so much fun seeing the delighted little faces of the children as they put on their puppets and compare with each other," says Lynda Spittle of the North West Christchurch Kiwanis Club. "I actually think that the teachers were just as excited … On behalf of all the children who have received these and who will receive these, thank you all so much. The smiles on their faces are priceless." —Courtney Meyer

Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Creating a Dedicated E-Mail Account on the Microsoft Exchange Server
From DocWiki
This section describes how to create a dedicated e-mail account on the Microsoft Exchange Server to enable communication with Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express. For details about performing each step, see the documentation for your specific Microsoft Exchange Server.
The maximum length for the password for the dedicated e-mail account on the Microsoft Exchange Server is set by the NTLM authentication protocol. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/102716 for more information.
- Create a user on your Microsoft Windows domain, for example, "MeetingPlaceExpress."
- Create a mailbox for this user on the Microsoft Exchange Server.
- Ensure that the dedicated e-mail account has the "Send As" permission if the Microsoft Exchange Server is configured to disable anonymous access via SMTP.
Note: For Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express Release 2.1 and later, we have added support for both Microsoft Exchange 2003 and Microsoft Exchange 2007. If you want to support both versions of Microsoft Exchange notification services, connect using SMTP port 25 instead of using OWA (which is what was used for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express Release 2.0 and earlier releases).
The following is what the connection failure (after you upgrade to Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express Release 2.1) looks like (as seen in the System Information Capture):

Well, if the first movie is anything to go by, we can expect a lot more backstory on the Knights, just like Fate and Precia had. I approve; we barely got to see their history, and I think it lessened their characters for it. I'd also agree that the amount of Fate coverage in Movie 1st may get rid of the lotus eater in A's. (Particularly in that Alicia already pulled the "I wish I had a sister" bit at the end.) Like everyone here, I'd want a better end boss, but I think the materials are a bit of a stretch. I like them, too, but they weren't even mentioned in the anime... I wouldn't get my hopes up. Considering how closely the first movie stuck to the source material, I don't think they're going to get crazy now.
Basically, I'm expecting this movie to feature way more time with Hayate and the Knights, and cut back on Nanoha and Fate's everyday life at school.

I just wonder how you pull off backstory for knights who have lived through dozens upon dozens of generations. Hayate backstory shouldn't be a problem, though. Fate's backstory was soundstage content, have the knights ever had any backstory in one of those? Otherwise, the movies going to be creating it from scratch if they decide to do it.
Massive time constraint to pull that off in any case. I'll just hope for a 3 hr movie this time. :3

- Activation of the Book of Darkness
- The Knights discover the Book is killing their master
(cue back stories)
- The Knights go on a linker core hunt only to meet Nanoha and Co. for the first time
(cue a little more back story)
- Nanoha and Co. gets the tar beat out of them and upgrade after and enters the ring for a rematch
(cue a bit more back story possibly for Chrono)
- Final showdown with the Book receiving a massive beat down...
I'm sure they're going to make an A's movie manga as well to fill in a few holes like they did with Nanoha the 1st Movie.

The difference with Wolkies is that they don't really have an 'origin' story to call of. At least none that they could remember. Their backstory is pretty much their never-ending cycle of manipulation, murder, and tragedy, resetting the memories of their 'deaths' over and over.
Part of the issue is due to the fact that the 'Precia' of the Wolkenritter is divided into probably dozens, or hundreds of countless 'former Master of the Tome' that were assholes, power-hungry and treated the Wolkies as tools.
Of course, it could be expanded, but unless they want to throw in hints of whatever lives Wolkenritter had before their earliest memories ( were they once humans? were they once servants of any Belkan King before they got digitalised? Or were they digitalised to begin with? Did their first Master ( before the corruption and memory reset problems ) treat them well? Were they blank slate programs who discovered personality over centuries? ), there's really not much that can be added beyond what the A's series already did, like the scene where their rooms were pretty much empty dungeons, they wore the same clothes day-in day-out, and had nothing beyond collecting Linker Cores.
Adding more 'Hayate family' scenes is also not exactly that great of an idea. There was almost an entire episode dedicated to that in A's already, as in almost 20 whole minutes + 'many small moments around the 8 episodes before shit went crazy.'
I guess one alternative is to give 'Reinforce' more presence early on, and establish her tragic existence in the Wolkie flashbacks, thus making her final death all the more... bittersweet.

Given how much I liked the 1st movie, I have high hopes for this adaptation. That's saying a lot because while I've been around the block with the genre more times than I am willing to admit, this is probably my favorite single season in any magical girls how ever, if not my favorite magical girl show of all (StrikerS makes me need to question this over and over again). Emotionally charged, engaging with fantastic fights. What more do I need.
In a way for me the movie has much more to lose and less to gain. The season was stellar as it was and from there it would be too easy to screw it up. Then again with their work on 1st, I have faith in them.
As for A's itself yes, I would want a wee bit more background on the Wolkenritter. Vita has lamented in the series a lot of times just how much Hayate is different from their previous masters, showing that they do have memories of their previous incarnations, and the contrast would be more personal and heartfelt if we get to see just how they were with their previous masters.
I doubt we'd get more Reinforce early on since I don't think she really existed as a distinct "entity" before Hayate had her BSOD, unlike the Wolkenritter. If she were she'd have been a distinctly formed "person" even before Hayate, with the book's previous masters, but in the series she felt like a someone who was created based on Hayate's own personality rather than preceding her. They COULD retcon that, but you'd have to modify the parts of the story, not to mention make changes to Rein should we get a StrikerS movie.

Personally, I feel for when it comes to development and backstory, it'd be better to give some scenes dedicated to Reinforce via Wolkenritter flashbacks, to build up her finale, and some scenes dedicated to Clyde and Chrono's family, via flashbacks from Graham and the Lieze twins, to help distinguish why Graham would go to such lengths to bring an end to the threat posed by the Book of Darkness.
Now, three guesses as to which backstory has more chances of being shown, and the first two don't count.

IMO, the entirety of the last fight kinda dragged (starting from Hayate going nuts til the final defeat of the security system), and it was utterly long. I'd also think Fate's dream will be redundant since 1st movie covered all her background fine.
I'd probably want them to show more about the last time the book was sealed away; would be cool. This would mean having to cut down on the mid series fights, which I could live with.
But for the most part, I'd really prefer the same characters and background, but a different story; make it a "rebuild" for Nanoha. It's never gonna replace A's anyways with the time constraint; the best it can do is to try is to offer what A's lacked in; Nanoha development and more worldbuilding related things.
Also, there are characters that don't do much that need a bigger role or more background; aka Yuno (The show hates him) and Chrono (he never does anything)
Of all honesty, if it's just a straight remake, I would be very skeptical.

With as much money as it made in theaters and in dvd and bluray sales (#1 on both dvd and bluray sales by a very large margin) I think they'll make the A's movie longer. 2hrs just isn't going to cut it, so I'm thinking 2hr 30minutes as a bare minimum, which may expand to 3hrs.

I think a 2 hour 30 minute duration is reasonable, but there's a limit to how long people are willing to sit in a theater, I would think. Of course, with the pause button on my computer I could care less about how long it would be ^^;;

Hi everyone,
New to the boards! I was re-directed here by a google search I did for "IRRRL Refinancing". My credit scores have been stalement for about a year. They don't go up nor down. I don't know what the issue is there. I guess I need to use my credit cards more often. I just use and carry a small balance on one, my USAA CC. I have a limit of 20k, but only carry 2.5k at the most all the time. In total, I have about 9 CC's from every major issuer; Mastercard, Visa, Discover, AMEX.
Any thoughts or suggestions on how to get my score moving again would be greatly appreciated!
2013 Goals
- Increase FICO to 775+ by year's end.
- Refinance current home through IRRRL to atleast a 3.5% from a 4.5%.
- Save on refinance and add to my Emergency Fund by atleast 3 - 5K by year's end.
- Start using my CC's more often.. (responsibly!)
Welcome Jeff,
I'm glad you found the VA IRRRL refinance forum that I recently posted about my current situation. Right now, in my opinion, is certainly the time to refi if you can, because I think despite all the things still happening, the interest rates are bound to go up (they can't go much down from here)!
We are using our credit cards responsibly and actually making money for spending what we're already spending through the rewards points for signing up for them, and through the cash back method. The card companies need people who are paying off their bill each month to keep cash flow in their system which is part of what makes it work for those who are paying interest on their purchases each month.
I've been paying attention to Dave Ramsey's baby steps (1) $1k emergency fund (2) Pay off all debt (3) build 3-6 months emergency fund (4) 15% invested in IRA / pre-tax retirement (5) save for college (6) pay off home early
My savings will be reduced to refinance. Instead of putting our savings from a reduced monthly mortgage payment, we will continue paying what we are paying now.
For the 2013 myFico Fitness Challenge, I hope to achieve my 755 goal.
I am new to the boards and excited about this challenge! Learning so much here.
2013 Goals:
In 2012 I got a CLI on a previously secured credit card. Card is no longer secured. I had a decent increase in my TU and EQ scores. I paid off a little more than $52,000.00 of student loans.
In 2013 I want to pay the remaining 28k I have in student loans and see my score go into the 740's. Would like another CLI on my card as well. Will update if anything good (or bad) happens.
Best of luck to everybody else!
Great goals so far, everyone! Keep 'em coming!
And be sure to update your Fitness Challenge signature so it directs to the current 2013 Challenge
In an effort to improve my scores, I found these forums a week or so ago, so I am a newbie. I've been reading up and have learned much so far.
Goals for 2013:
Due to a terrible financial struggle, I let many medical bills slide in an effort to keep everything else afloat. We had to refinance our mortgage in 2011, but our scores were awful and we had no choice but to go with a 3-yr balloon. So - that needs to be refinanced just as soon as the scores move up.
The suggestions I read on these forums are great. I plan to put some of the things I have learned into action this month!
Best of luck to all!

Happy New Year everyone. After many years of ignoring my credit score, I recently checked it and was mortified to see that my score was 503!! I had late payments here and there but always caught up with them. I was laid off for a while and also had a couple collections after graduating from school while I was still looking for a job. Anyway, this year is a new beginning and I am working on paying close attention and becoming much more responsible for my bills. I will also contact some of the creditors and see what I can do to remove some of the negative info from my account. Wish me luck!!!
1. Pay off all credit cards by April
2. Dispute negatives on credit report
3. Save $10,000
4. Take 18 credits for grad school
Happy New Year!!
My goals for 2013 are to:
Completely pay off my credit card debt
Pay off two personal loans
Save $5,000 towards downpayment for a house
For the next two months i'm going to focus on reducing the balance on each of my **7 **cards by $100 or more to start reducing my credit utilization.
I'm EXCITED about getting out of debt this year!!!

Fate/Zero's definitely something I'm going to watch, I'm watching Fate/Stay Night for the first time and enjoying it a lot. The main characters I particularly care about are Shirou, Saber, Rin Tohsaka, Archer, Sakura, and the gothloli girl whose name I forget, so it would be nice if they're all present in the prequel (Though it's doubtful Shirou will be since he's just a normal kid about six years old), though I wouldn't mind if the cast was all new.
Tamayura's a bit saccharine, but I enjoyed the four OVAs quite a bit and am glad to see it get the upgrade to TV series. I hope the opening and closing songs are as good as they were for the OVAs, I loved both songs.
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon looks cool, plan on checking that out. I like the art style and the cold, metallic feeling the preview picture in that chart gives off.
Science fiction isn't a genre that cranks out too many series I'm fond of, but Coppelion looks nice. The show has an interesting premise, and I have some fun with shows that take place in the future because I'm weird and enjoy thinking about how old I and the people I know might be during the story, or thinking about how different our lives might be by that time compared to the present.
I'm a big Shana fan, so Shakugan no Shana III is easily going to be one of the anime highlights of both 2011 and 2012 for me, especially since I get the impression that the later novels are fucking badass, more than worth the long wait between the second and third seasons (Well, not quite so long for me as those who watched the show while it was still being aired because I watched Shana for the first time early 2009, but that's still a decent wait).
Personas 3 and 4 are easily my two favorite RPGs, so there's no way I'm missing out on the anime rendition of Persona 4. (Though, to make a correction that I'm sure a million other people are going to point out to the guy who made this chart, the bulk of the story actually takes place during 2011.) Depending on when the series begins, if the anime is two cours the final battle on March 20th 2012 might coincide with the final episode's air date, which would be pretty cool.
Mirai Nikki's a no-brainer, I've never read the manga but I've always hoped that it would receive an anime adaptation some day. I like that Yuuko girl in the preview picture, she looks like a very gentle, kindhearted, easygoing girl.
I might watch Kimi to Boku, looks unremarkable but decent enough to kill some time.
The second season of Working! is the last confirmed Fall anime that I'm interested in. I enjoyed the first season, and this one will probably be better since it has the best character (Yamada) around from the beginning.
On the OVA side, I enjoy The World God Only Knows very much and Higurashi is one of my all-time favorite stories period. Infinite Stratos is mediocre, but meh, I'll probably watch it anyway.
The Fall 2011 season looks really good so far overall, and continues the time-honored tradition of Fall seasons always being the best.

I'm not surprised why no decent titles up there. That dreaded bill already in full effect by that time. Autumn has been always my favorite anime season since most of my favorite shows like Gundam 00, Clannad and Yosuga no Sora to name a few has been shown in Autumn but this Autumn release just sucked, except for Persona 4 and C3 perhaps.
Let's hope Persona 4 won't be sucked like Trinity Soul(Winter 2007/2008).

Fall season looking to be good. This list looks a tiny bit incomplete.
Will definitely check out:
Fate/Zero - YES, it'S NOT DEEN HOORAY! Looking to be the show to challenge Madoka and Steins;Gate for best this year.
Guilty Crown - Notamina block show demands an auto watch.
UN-GO - Same deal as above
Shakugan no Shana III - Please don't suck.
Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!!! - If they don't flub the adaption, should be great.
I also may check out the following...
Tamayura ~Hitotose~
Persona 4
EDIT: I also expected the new Last Exile to be coming out this Fall or next Spring, but if it's this FALL , definitely going to be checking that out.

Not to mention, the list left out Gundam AGE as well for those Gundam fans out there (whether they want to just makes jokes out of it or just watch it b/c it's Gundam).
For me...
Haganai - I've been waiting for this for awhile...
Gundam AGE - The story may turn out serious, but if not, I'm so using this as something to joke on...
Ika II - Duh...
Working 2 - Duh...
Fate/Zero - Just b/c it's Fate/... series...
Shana III - Time to go back to first 2 seasons...been a LONG time
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon - Will probably read the novel before I really decide whether I'll watch it or not
Tamayura - From summary sounds like those high-school slice of life (Which I usually watch just for the sake of it...), but I heard the OAV was boring, though
Guilty Crown - Just maybe...(Doubtful, though, with so many series already up on "Will watch" list...)

Too early to worry about what I'll blog for fall, but Mirai Nikki is a no-brainer despite nothing terribly exciting in the staff and cast. The manga is absolutely stellar.
Hopefully Seitokai no Ichizon and Shinryaku Ika Musume will be fall series. I believe Working! has been confirmed for fall as well.

It's a bit hard to have "expectations and anticipations" around an incomplete chart that skips over a season that hasn't even begun to air. Now if we were closer to the end of the Summer season, then this thread might make more sense. Information would be more accurate and official. Too much can change between the end of the Spring season and the beginning of the Fall season.

I'll definitely be watching Mirai Nikki for sure. I currently have the 10 volumes and are praying the rest will be released. I'll also have Bakuman, Working!! 2, and Mobile Suit Gundam AGE, on my watch list as well as other ongoing series. There are others that look pretty promising like Kyoukai Senjou No Horizon, Guilty Crown, and C³.

Let's see
Tamayura ~Hitotose~: I liked the OVA series, so I'll be coming back for the series for more.
Bakuman 2: despite the first season starting out badly, it managed to pick up mid way through and finally got better by the end. Plus the season will have the character I've been waiting since the anime was announced lol.
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon: An adaption of a door stopper series of novels, this sees an annoying looking group of people return to earth. Might check for the first couple of episodes, but nothing from the PV's had drawn me in so far.
Mobile Suit Gundam AGE: Ah Gundam. The director is pretty experienced in the franchise, but Level 5 ... they make some fun games, but the story is just ... well at least this is huge move for them I guess? The character designs don't really look all that great, and the main Gundam is as plain as you can get, but the story potential is very strong here. 3 protagonists, century span storyline, and new direction for the franchise. Could end up being G Gundam reborn.
Shinryaku!? Ika Musume: Loved the first season, but the directorial change ... I will never forgive the Valkyria Chronicles adaption T_T
Fate/Zero: pretty much an ensemble staff here, and could be the anime where the majority of the hype will be at in the season, since it's Type-moon (and has been getting a lot of hype going as is since it's announcement) Yuki Kajiura (meaning it will have a phenomenal soundtrack, though it reamins to be seen if it's used well) Ei Aoki (after Ga-Rei: Zero and Hourou Musuko, the man is a personal favorite of mine, and can direct a good action anime without compromising on the emotional aspect of the show) ufotable (sakuga heaven) and the source material is pretty good from what I've heard. Also, it's not Deen, so that's always a plus.
Just one tiny small problem though ...
There is still no writer. Like, what the hell? Why wouldn't they announce who is composing the anime already?
Shana III: The other widely anticipated show this season, this had already been set for being the final season for a while now with all the OVA's they had been releasing and the novels coming to an end. I will check it out, since I liked the past two seasons more or less.
Coppelion: interesting premise
UnkoUn-Go: proof that Nintendo isn't the only one in the land of the rising sun who can come up with stupid names.
Guilty Crown: The producer of notaminA, having concluded that he needs to sacrifice something in order to gain another, he gathered all the DVD/BD of previous notaminA and placed them all in one building. Afterwards, he set the entire building on fire, and walked in. When he came out, this was stuck to his nibble. He decided then to have the guy who directed an anime about bullets passing through boobs and laser pens to helm it. Much tears ensued.
At the very least, this is heading to be pretty looking. Very pretty looking, going by the concept art, the character designer, and the studio. The story though ...
notaminA T_T
Lupin III: can't go wrong with the classics right?
Phi Brain: I like the concept, and it's sunrise so it gets a pass with me.
Other wise, this is looking like its shaping like a great season. 2011 is going to end with a bang.
I mean we have about 20 titles aside from the Movies + OVA's already set to air in the Fall, many of which are long awaited shows. As for the information, much like every thread prior, we'll end up getting a clearer picture once we come closer to the airing date, but we do have enough info atm to make a general impression of the season and the shows airing. Change is expected, but that doesn't make the info released now useless.

Well just looking at the list of anime that will be airing in Fall is enough to hype me to the max. Can't wait till October, if it wasn't for the fact that my exams are in November. -_-
I feel like I'll end up watching almost everything. I'm not picky and don't care much for depth in anime anyway. I watch it for fun.
Will watch:
Guilty Crown - It's noitaminA so obviously, and I love the character designs
Tamayura - Relaxing
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon - Sounds interesting
C3 - I like Silver Link, and torture.
Phi Brain - I also love puzzles, this might be interesting.
Shakugan no Shana III - Of course I'll watch sequels of shows I like
Persona 4 - Looks very interesting even though I've never played Persona (don't have a PlayStation at all) and I like most of Kishi Seiji's works.
Mirai Nikki - Yandere girl is always good, and I like these kinds of psychological shows
Un-Go - Willing to give it a go, only because it's also noitaminA
Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai! - My No.1 most anticipated show because I love the VN even though I've only played 2 routes, and Kamiya Hiroshi is voicing the protagonist, though I have a feeling it won't do so well
Kimi to Boku - I'd like to see how a Lucky Star with guys will turn out.
Working!! 2 - First season was quite good
Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai - Love the manga, hilarious, and I wanna hear Hanazawa Kana voice Kobato lols
Shinryaku! Ika Musume - Liked the first season
Mildly interested in everything else. Have a feeling this season will be the best season ever.

Located in the Caribbean Sea, the island of Montserrat is a fantastic place to observe pristine habitats on and offshore. A walk along the islands' lush green coastline will make it clear why Montserrat holds the nickname 'Emerald Isle'. However, the species of Montserrat are at a crossroads with both natural and human-caused environmental disturbances threatening some species with extinction.
Join the ARKive Geographic team as we take a trip to explore the species that make Montserrat so very special. We bet you'll learn a thing or two about this little green gem that you didn't know before!
Pigmented plumes
The national bird of Montserrat, the Montserrat oriole has also become symbolic of the island's conservation efforts. Recent volcanic eruptions in the country have reduced this species hill forest habitat to one third of its historic size. To safeguard the survival of the Montserrat oriole into the future, researchers and conservationists have embarked on a highly successful captive breeding program in the UK and populations should rebound barring any further volcanic disruptions.
Flashy fish
Some might argue that a queen can have many moods however, not every queen can change colors to match them! The queen triggerfish has some very unique abilities with one of them being the ability to adjust the vibrancy of its scales depending on its mood. Another clever adaptation is the fish's ability to move its eyes independently of each other; a very useful skill for spotting danger.
Serene sea cow
Speaking of species with fascinating abilities, the West Indian manatee has evolved to survive in both freshwater and saltwater environments. If that isn't interesting enough, recent evidence suggests that the manatees are able to detect pressure changes through a unique sixth sense: highly-tuned sensory hairs.
Reticent reptile
While not much is known about this particular species, the Montserrat galliwasp faces threats that are still worth mentioning; the most critical being habitat loss. Environmental destruction (deforestation), fragmentation (splintering environments for development), and degradation (pollution and the introduction of non-native species) are all forms of habitat loss suffered by the species. As more information becomes available, Montserrat's conservation efforts may help the galliwasp thrive, but until then this reptile's biology and behavior remain a mystery.
Ambling amphibian
The mountain chicken frog may look unimposing but it actually has a carnivorous appetite and is considered the top endemic predator in Montserrat. Despite its place in the food chain, mountain chicken populations have been devastated by the deadly chytrid fungus. The mountain chicken stars in ARKive's newest online education game, Team WILD, where players are tasked with evacuating non-infected mountain chickens from the island before they succumb to the fungus.
The Team WILD game is a fun and unique way for students to discover the importance of a career in conservation and science – by turning scientists into superheroes! See if you can beat the current high score for saving the most mountain chicken frogs on Montserrat. Or, if you're more interested in chytrid conservation news, check out a more in-depth ARKive blog on healthy frog reintroduction efforts.
We hope you've enjoyed this virtual visit to Montserrat with us. If you're not yet ready to return to the mainland, why not explore the 200+ species on ARKive that live on or visit the waters around Montserrat. And don't forget to test your species-saving skills in Team WILD!

PEORIA – Police in Peoria have started an investigation into the death of an 8-year-old boy who was reported missing and then found dead in a refrigerator the next day.
Peoria County Coroner Johnna Ingersoll said Friday that an autopsy found Marquail D. Johnson suffocated to death.
She did not rule whether his death was a homicide or accidental, saying that was still under investigation. Ingersoll also is awaiting results from toxicology tests. The autopsy found no evidence of trauma.
Marquail was reported missing late Wednesday and his body was found early Thursday in an upright refrigerator in a yard a few houses from where he lived, the Journal Star in Peoria reported.
The newspaper reported the refrigerator was an older model with latches that closed the door from the outside. The appliance was unplugged and sitting near the back door of a home.
Later Thursday, more than 100 people gathered near the spot where the boy's body was found. They left balloons, candles and stuffed animals.

There's a reason the holiday season is called the most wonderful time of the year, so make sure your family goes out and enjoys the special holiday events for kids and families that occur near your neighborhood. Here are a few ideas to help you get started:
1. Go caroling as a family. Many church groups and other community organizations plan special nights to go caroling in the community. Sign your family up to go with one of these groups or create your own caroling group if no one is planning one in your community.
2. Take a family sleigh ride. Sleigh rides are often offered at winter festivals and other events. This is a great family activity and an excellent opportunity to teach your children about holiday traditions. Your family can even sing "Jingle Bells" and other fun Christmas carols as you ride in the sleigh.
3. Drive or walk through a light festival with your family. Children and adults both love to look at Christmas lights, which makes going to a light festival the perfect family activity for the holidays. Ask children what they think about the light displays and go for hot chocolate afterwards to spend more time together as a family.
4. Take your kids to special events at your local bookstore, library, art store, or children's museum. Many bookstores and libraries have special holiday storytimes and activities for both kids and adults. Also check with your local art store and children's museum to see if they are going to have any special holiday crafts or exhibits for kids.
5. Attend your community's Christmas parade, Christmas tree lighting, or other holiday events. This is a great opportunity for your children to learn about the people in their community. Involving your children in community events also helps build a good foundation for teaching them about charity and volunteering.
6. Take your kids to see holiday concerts and plays, such as The Nutcracker. Holiday concerts and plays provide wonderful opportunities to teach your children about culture. If you attend a concert, ask children to point out the different instruments that they have at home. Music toys that are similar to the instruments they see also make excellent holiday gifts for kids.
7. Come up with your own holiday event at home. If you have young children or are watching your budget this year, create your own special holiday concert or play at home. You can perform a family play with puppets and puppet theaters, for example, or you can have your own holiday parade by everyone dressing up as different characters.
8. Take your kids to see Santa and encourage them to write him a letter. If your family takes part in Christmas, find a mall or other location that has times where children can come see Santa. This will create fun memories for children each Christmas. Writing letters to Santa is also a wonderful family time activity and will help put everyone in the Christmas spirit.
9. Help your kids track Santa on Christmas Eve. Children will enjoy keeping track of Santa's whereabouts on Christmas Eve with the improved Santa Tracker website from the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). The new website counts down the time until Christmas and lets children digitally visit the North Pole to learn about NORAD's mission and how they track Santa. Children can also play a variety of fun holiday games on the website with a new game released daily. Keep in mind that tracking Santa on Christmas Eve is also an excellent opportunity for children to learn about geography in a fun way.
Check back tomorrow for Day 9 of our 12 Days of Learning!

Try This Halloween Decorating Idea: Eyebomb with Googly Eyes
Eyebombing is definitely goofy and potentially creepy, which makes it an especially good candidate for Halloween decorations and for surprising people this season. Not that you should limit yourself during the rest of the year, because it's easy and the opportunities are endless. By all means, carry some eyeballs around in your back pocket, and use as inspiration strikes.
Here are just a few funny examples, and some ways to make your own eyeballs.
1. Photographs are instantly scarier when their eyes follow you around the room. Recreate this photo from All Googly using self-adhesive googly eyes from the craft store, and then revisit your family photo albums in secret.
2. Walking down a dark street will never be the same after you've come across one of these peering at you, all thanks to Eyebombing. You can buy really large googly eyes, or Maker Mama shares how to make some from thrifted clocks.
3. German artist Tim Schneider used painted styrofoam balls as eyeballs, and planted them surreptitiously throughout the city with hilarious results.
4. As if some dolls weren't weird or creepy enough, I give you this from All Googly.
5. No image is ever safe again when there are googly eye push pins. These were from Urban Outfitters, and are still available through Amazon, but could easily be made by gluing googly eyes onto some standard thumbtacks.
6. A large yoga ball, painted to look like an eyeball, makes for a mean adversary in a staring contest. Imagine this in your yard, ready and waiting for eager trick or treaters. Spotted on Sweater Surgery.
7. Similarly, white beach balls with painted on pupils became Halloween decorations for Anna's tree last year. From The Princess and the Frog.
8. These pom pom eyeballs can be made using a tutorial from Mr. Printables and placed around the house to greet unsuspecting family members.
9. Draw up some quick paper versions and stick them on a tree as you walk by, like these seen on Pepita.
10. And don't forget to watch what you eat and drink around the holidays, because it watches you too. Via All Googly.

After losing a last-minute appeal to the Supreme Court, craft stores chain Hobby Lobby said it would defy a federal healthcare mandate requiring employers to provide their workers with insurance that covers emergency contraceptives.
The Oklahoma City-based chain, owned by a conservative Christian family, had applied to the high court to block a part of the federal healthcare law ordering companies to offer insurance that covers contraceptive drugs, including the so-called morning-after pill.
After the court refused to block the mandate, a lawyer for Hobby Lobby said the Green family, which also has holdings in Mardel Inc., a seller of religious books, would nonetheless refuse to provide health coverage for contraception it considers to be abortion-inducing.
Hobby Lobby and Mardel could be fined as much as $1.3 million a day starting Tuesday.
"They're not going to comply with the mandate," said Kyle Duncan, general counsel of the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which represents Hobby Lobby. "They're not going to offer coverage for abortion-inducing drugs in the insurance plan."

The county is finalizing its controversial exchange of forest land with Mt. Hood Meadows Ski Resort.
That move has been protested by the Hood River Valley Residents Committee who believe Meadows is making a strategic move to develop a destination resort in the upper valley.
However, Dave Riley, Meadows general manager, said the only problem with the debate over development plans is that there has been no application submitted for any project.
In August, the Hood River County Commission authorized the trade to proceed following an independent appraisal if the county did not have to pay more than $1.5 million to gain about 140 acres in the trade. Meadows has proposed turning 785 acres over to the county in return for 640 acres that lies near the Cooper Spur Inn property it purchased this summer.
Ken Galloway, county forester, said the appraisers have valued the county's property at $1,324,023 and that owned by Meadows at $2,334,908, a difference of $1,100,885.
Both properties are zoned exclusively for forest use and Galloway said any change in that designation would have to undergo a lengthy and complex conversion process by the planning department and planning commission that would be open to public comment.
He said the deal was negotiated because it makes good business sense since the county will gain more land and be allowed access to 100 acres of high yield timber land that can now only be reached for harvest by helicopter operation, increasing logging costs from the standard $50-$75 per 1,000 board feet to between $375-$450.
Galloway said after the county recently completed the exchange of its 1,000 acres of Scenic Area properties with the U.S. Forest Service for about $7 million, he was instructed to seek out other timber land that could replace that revenue base. In addition, Galloway said he routinely searches out parcels that can consolidate property for both landowners to save survey and roadbuilding costs.
To date, Galloway said Longview Fibre Company and Meadows are the only positive respondents to the exchange offer made to 22 parties this spring.

$6.8 million in Fentanyl and Ketamine found in secret car compartment
A man is under arrest after the Fresno County Sheriff's Office says agents found $6.8 million in Fentanyl and Ketamine in a secret compartment in the car he was driving to Los Angeles Tuesday.
According to a news release, High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area unit, Fresno Methamphetamine Task Force and Central Valley Marijuana Investigation Team agents pulled Eduardo Lopez, 26, over on Highway 99 after undercover agents set up a deal to buy the 4.4 pounds of what they thought was synthetic heroin. After towing the car for the search, the agents say they found two packages of drugs in a secret car compartment.
Fentanyl is potentially deadly if inhaled or if touched, so agents had to wear hazmat suits.
Lopez faces felony charges of possessing and transporting narcotics for sale. His bail is set at $235,000.
The news release says the 4.4 pounds of drugs could be cut 100 times.

Tierärztliche Klinik Dr. med. vet. Bernhard Linneweber
We are a well-known, long established local veterinarian clinic specialized in small pets. The clinic was founded around 20 years and grew constantly. Currently there are over 20 employees.
We had an website made around 9 years ago which is not proffessional at all and needs more than just a redesign. Its more than time for a all over update of our site in order to give a really proffessional, clean and serious impression of our clinic. We did some research on other veterinerian clinics and most of them doesn't look proffessional to me at all. So please surprise us with something really exciting.
In general I would like to let you quite free with your design ideas for our project. But please keep in mind that this isn't a website for a innovative web 2.0 start up. We are thinking about an mix between a classic, solid website with some fresh elements used in these days.
The overall goal once again is to give a solid, clean, classic and professional represence of our clinic. At the same time it should look like an up-to-date, state-of-the-art design which can compare to current sites on the web.
- our clients which are local pet owners (only small animals like cats, dogs, rabbits etc.)
- distributors and partners
For the moment there won't be that much content available. It should just provide our customers and partners with some details of our services. Furthermore it should provide a way to contact us and to find us. Just like a basic corporate side.
Anyway there are plans to expand the content in order to provide frequently updates to our clients. So the website should be kept scalable.
Here is a current draft of our website (http://tinyurl.com/ydzdlsp). Please don't consider it as a reference in terms of graphic design/layout. It's just to give an idea regarding the content.
The layout should be provide 2 collums in the main content area. The navigation bar should be a basic horizontal navigation bar. From our point of view there is no need to include some side sub-menues or something. Some nice drop down menue should give a good straight forward navigation and overview of the side.
The design should be light and not too overloaded. But of course you can include some nice pictures (e.g. pets) in the banner or something.
One of the important requirements is to include our logo (please see files attached) somehow in your design. Additionally the building of our clinic need to be included somehow in the design of the banner. I include some photographs in the attachements. Please choose the one which fits best for your design. It would probably make also sense to include the same colors of the logo in the website design. But still, if you got some other ideas please feel free. The main banner should also include the full brand name:
Tierärztliche Klinik
Dr. med. vet. Bernhard Linneweber
Fachtierarzt für Kleintiere
A site layout which we really like.

A press release from Congressman Joe Walsh:
Rep. Walsh: Bring Accountability to the Middle East
"The United States must hold the Palestinians accountable for their actions."
WASHINGTON – Today, Congressman Joe Walsh (IL-08) renewed his call for Washington to bring accountability to the Middle East and make U.S. aid to the Palestinians and Egypt contingent on peace and reform.
Repeated barrages of rocket and mortar fire from the Gaza Strip have so far killed three Israeli civilians and wounded several others, including children.
"I applaud Secretary Clinton for reiterating the United State's support for Israel's right to self defense," said Walsh.
"But this is hardly enough. More than 220 rockets have been fired at Israeli civilians from militants in Gaza. The United States must hold the Palestinians accountable for these unprovoked, heinous acts. It must also hold Egypt, Qatar, and Iran accountable for their support of Palestinian militants and the terrorist group Hamas."
Walsh has authored several pieces of legislation aimed at bringing accountability to the Middle East peace process. The Palestinian Accountability Act, H.R. 2457, would make any aid to the Palestinian Authority contingent upon much-needed reforms, including an end to corruption and the vilification of Israel. In July, Walsh led a letter with 35 other Members of Congress to House Leadership urging them to withhold aid to the new Egyptian government until it reaffirms its treaties with Israel.
"I am disappointed that Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi has used this unprovoked attack on Israel to reveal both his sympathy for the terrorist group, Hamas, and his opposition to Middle East peace. Why are we providing Egypt with $2 billion in foreign aid every year to vilify our allies and oppose American interests? It's time to hold Egypt accountable as well. I urge the President to withhold foreign aid to Egypt until it publicly reaffirms its treaties with Israel."

The Dish Network User's Resource
The Hopper is Dish Network's first whole-home DVR full-HD solution. Built with MoCA 1.0 technology, it will support up to 3 Joey "client modules" on a video network over the home's existing RG6 or RG59 coax or Ethernet, plus 1 HDTV directly.
Whole-home DVR differs from existing Duo DVRs by making recordings available to more than 2 independent TVs, and each additional TV can be get an HD output from its own Joey which accesses the Hopper. Rather than having a TV1 and TV2 each getting assigned a tuner, the Hopper has 3 tuners, and each user or timer that needs one dynamically gets assigned whichever one is available. If all tuners are taken, the viewer has the option to join what another is watching or to play a recording. In addition, a 2 Hopper household can have up to 4 Joeys, with all users expected to have access to the 6 tuners and recordings on both Hoppers (future feature, waiting for details and demo).
OTA reception will be via an optional USB Dongle (future). Support is shown for a rear eSATA port, 3 USB ports, dual Ethernet ports and standard telephone input.
It has one RG6 port for both input and output, using bandstacking to 3 internal satellite tuners and MoCA technology to provide HD feeds to up to 3 Joey modules across the same RG6 cable that comes in. A Hopper/Joey system is approximately 50% more energy efficient for a 4-room installation than previous models.
Start with 2 RG6 lines from a DishPro Plus swich (integrated 1000.2/.4 or external) to an XiP node which can be placed at the home's central wiring point.
One run of RG6 to the Hopper (no DPP Separator needed). This line is both the Hopper's satellite input and the output to and communication path to/from the Joeys.
The XiP node then has a Joey output. That will go to the rest of the home's coax distribution and can be RG59 and can even have splitters.
All of the tuners (3) are in the Hopper. A Joey is needed at each set that needs independent viewing. Sets that can be mirrored off another can be connected from the box's other set of outputs (Hopper: HDMI, component, composite, Joey: HDMI, composite) or on an SD TV channel if you add your own RF modulator.
Leave the Hopper on factory default settings until it has loaded current software. Each Joey will need to be connected by coax to get its first download of current software before switching, if you desire, to Ethernet only.
The information here is based on SatelliteGuys.US Questions about the new XiP Receivers? discussion and a visit to CES.

Sometimes people stand up for their beliefs by refusing to stand on them.
Ryan Rotela, a junior at Florida Atlantic University and devout Mormon, claims he was thrown out of class by his instructor after refusing to step on the name of Jesus as part of a classroom exercise.
Then the governor heard about it, according to the News Service of Florida:
Gov. Rick Scott wants a detailed report from state university system Chancellor Frank Brogan regarding an incident in which a Florida Atlantic University student claimed he was suspended from class for refusing to stomp on a piece of paper bearing the word "Jesus." "Whether the student was reprimanded or whether an apology was given is in many ways (inconsequential) to the larger issue of a professor's poor judgment," Scott stated in a letter to Brogan. "The professor's lesson was offensive, and even intolerant, to Christians and those of all faiths who deserve to be respected as Americans entitled to religious freedom."
The instructor, Deandre Poole, is the vice chairman of the Palm Beach County Democratic Party and was born and raised in West Palm Beach. Poole teaches various courses in communications at FAU and according to the party's website, "prides himself in being actively engaged in civic affairs."
The incident with Rotela reportedly happened while Poole was teaching a class on the power of symbols.
More from News Service of Florida:
The school, while denying any student had been disciplined, has issued an apology and instructed its intercultural communications class to no longer conduct the exercise. The class, taught by Deandre Poole, vice chairman of the Palm Beach County Democratic Party, was reportedly following an exercise in the instructors manual that had students write the name "Jesus" in large letters on a piece of paper, put the paper on the floor, face up, and after a brief period, tell them to step on the paper. "Most will hesitate," the manual says, according to news reports. "Ask why they can't step on the paper. Discuss the importance of symbols in culture."
Rotela told CBS12 in West Palm Beach that stepping on the name of Jesus would have been disrespectful.
"Anytime you stomp on something it shows that you believe that something has no value," he said. "So if you were to stomp (on the name of) Jesus, it says that (the name) has no value."
FAU quickly moved to put out the fire but the incident triggered a national frenzy online. Critics descended on the university, pointing fingers and accusing school administrators of intolerance.
Blogger "Dave" from Fellowship of the Minds: Conservatives who love America, rejected FAU's apology:
From where I am sitting, it is immaterial how profusely FAU apologizes to Mr. Rotela at this point, as any apology from the school would ring hollow now.
It is the mentality of the instructor involved, the offensive nature of the assignment in question, and the willingness of those in a position of authority to initially rush to its defense that I find troubling.
I cannot say whether Gov. Scott's actions are merely political theater, or that he genuinely plans to get to the bottom of the heinous actions on the part of the FAU faculty.
Personally, I hope these people are made examples of, because this sort of thing is becoming far too common on the campuses of American colleges and universities.
The Church of All Nations in Boca Raton said it was planning to rally on the FAU campus.
In an op-ed for Forbes, Greg Lukianoff, president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE), offered legal precedent as a reason for coming to Rotela's defense:
Students do not have a right not to be offended by classroom speech, including assignments. Yet what precisely happened in Rotela's class matters in determining what rights and principles are at stake. The idea of students at a public institution being required to stomp on the word Jesus evokes the 1943 decision in West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette, where the Supreme Court found that students could not be compelled to salute the American flag against their will. In the case, brought by Jehovah's Witnesses who believed the salute was blasphemy, the Supreme Court staked out a broader moral argument defending the right of private conscience in rousing language. The Court held that students in a free society could not be compelled to engage in an act that amounted to a rejection of their most deeply held beliefs.
According to The Sun-Sentinel, FAU is no stranger to religious controversy:
Last year, some Jewish students received "eviction notices" on the doors of their dorms, which were posted by a group called Students for Justice in Palestine. In 2001, the university staged the play Corpus Christi, which depicted Jesus as gay, outraging many conservative lawmakers in the Legislature. The show went on despite the complaints.
For its part, FAU removed the "insensitive and unacceptable" exercise from the content of Poole's course and has distanced itself from any threat of disciplinary action against Rotela.

Beef Feedlot Near Broken Bow, Neb., Agrees to Pay $145,000 Civil Penalty for Illegal Discharges into Mud Creek
Release Date: 07/10/2012
Contact Information: Ben Washburn, 913-551-7364, firstname.lastname@example.com
Environmental News
(Kansas City, Kan., July 10, 2012) - Adams Land and Cattle Company, a beef feedlot near Broken Bow, Neb., has agreed to pay a $145,000 civil penalty to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for violating the federal Clean Water Act and its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit related to discharges of pollutants into Mud Creek.
In December 2010, EPA Region 7 inspected Adams' facility, located just south of Broken Bow. The facility confined approximately 83,000 cattle at the time of the inspection. Inspectors reviewed facility operations, required record-keeping and waste management practices, and also visually inspected the facility. EPA inspectors documented that Adams had allowed its waste storage basins to overfill with manure solids and sediment to the point they could no longer store runoff from large rain events. A follow-up inspection was performed in December 2011.
Through these inspections and a review of records provided by Adams, EPA concluded that the facility discharged process wastewater to an unnamed tributary of Mud Creek, a water of the United States, on 13 occasions between April 2007 and October 2010. The discharges were a result of inadequate storage capacity in holding basins, lack of controls necessary to prevent the Mud Creek tributary from flooding the holding ponds, and/or failure of piping associated with land application practices. Adams estimated that approximately 140 million gallons of process wastewater was released during these discharges, impacting Mud Creek and its tributary.
"The Clean Water Act requires feedlots properly maintain adequate storage capacity in their storage basins to prevent unauthorized wastewater discharges," EPA Region 7 Administrator Karl Brooks said. "Unpermitted discharges from improperly maintained storage basins can cause serious impacts to the water quality of nearby rivers and streams."
On August 10, 2011, the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality (NDEQ) filed a penalty action against Adams that addressed one of the discharges. The action required Adams pay a $5,800 penalty along with a $5,800 payment to the Broken Bow, Neb., Chapter of Pheasants Forever. EPA's penalty action announced today penalizes Adams for the other 12 discharge events and related permit violations.
EPA and NDEQ share legal authority and responsibility for protecting water quality in Nebraska. Given the recurrent nature of the violations, EPA made the decision to exercise the enforcement authority that it shares with the State of Nebraska to resolve the issue.
By agreeing to the settlement, Adams Land and Cattle Company has certified that it is in compliance with the Clean Water Act. The settlement is subject to a 30-day public comment period before it becomes final.

I know everyone is busy, but I was wondering if anyone would be willing to read my personal statement and critique it. Just so you know ahead of time, it doesn't mention law school because my profession (resume) speaks to that. My husband and I own a real estate title abstracting business--hence, my desire to go to law school. It's obvious from my work history that law school was eventually a given. (I'm also a non-trad). So I chose to write about the other part of my life which can't really be displayed well on a resume. Did I choose correctly? Comments on writing style?
As we floated along the Bosporus taking in the nightscape of one of the worlds oldest cities, the Muslim call to prayer began echoing across the water. Magical! I surveyed the mystified faces of my ten companions. How had we come to be in this place, travelling together with people of all ages and religions, people we had not even met three hours before?
Two years ago, I knew next to nothing about Islam. Any knowledge I thought I had was based primarily on the medias portrayal of Islam since September 11th, 2001, the predominately Arabic and militant version. I wanted enlightenment--not realizing that knowledge would require change as well. I decided to pursue an increased understanding of Islam and of dialogue between Christians and Muslims, an activity I also had no understanding of.
My journey began in June 2008, when I was accepted to participate in the 4th Annual Institute on Christian-Muslim Relations sponsored the Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University. Christian participants of the Institute were introduced to the Quran, the life of Muhammad and the early history of Islam. Both religions then came together for sessions on how each faith was perceived post-9/11 and post-Iraq war and how they are practiced in todays society and political climate.
Because of my participation at Georgetown, I was selected to travel to Turkey on an intercultural exchange sponsored by the Rumi Forum, a Washington D.C non-profit organization, with the mission of fostering interfaith and intercultural dialogue. Our eight-day trip began with the awe-inspiring harbor tour. We toured Istanbul (simultaneously ancient and strikingly modern), Izmir, Kayseri and the ancient cities of Ephesus and Cappadocia. The sights, sounds and smells were at times overwhelming. We were invited into the homes of the elite and ordinary alike. The socioeconomic status of the host never changed the sincerity of their hospitality. We went to sleep each night having added new Muslims to our expanding family.
I admit I was a skeptic. I found it difficult to reconcile what I knew about the Islam of the twenty-first century with this moderate, tolerant version I was being shown in Turkey. Many speak beautiful words espousing peace and love, but usually they are just wordsaction seems to evade them. I found the synthesis of words and action I sought--in Turkey. My many, now dear, Turkish friends embody love as a daily duty required of them as a form of worship, not just as empty speech.
Since my return to the U.S., I have been invited to speak at colleges and civic gatherings all along the Mid-Atlantic region of the East Coast, defending the Muslim faith and advocating for an increased role for Turkey in the U.S.s foreign policy considerations. I still do not know much about Islam. A true understanding of the faith would probably take a lifetime. But that extraordinary journey to Turkey in the company of Christians, Muslims and Jews---a group destined to become like familyfar surpassed any previous turning point in life I though I might have had.
This summer, there was another trip to Turkey. The participants were people I had met during my speaking engagements who also struggled to understand how the Islam of the news media could be compatible with democracy, love and peace. I imagined them floating on the Bosporus--different people, same confused faces. I giggled. I knew something they did not know. In August, we gathered for a picnic to hear about their experiences. Like me, they had not stayed confused for long. Like me, their enlightenment had required change.

OK, blunt critique?
I was interested, and it was a good read, but I didn't walk away feeling like I really knew a lot about you. Your experiences, yes, but I didn't feel like I had significant insight into who you are. On the other hand, it offers a really strong resume of travel, engagement with interesting problems, and interaction with a broad community.
These bits felt vague:
- I wanted enlightenment--not realizing that knowledge would require change as well. I decided to pursue an increased understanding of Islam and of dialogue between Christians and Muslims, an activity I also had no understanding of.
- I found the synthesis of words and action I sought--in Turkey. My many, now dear, Turkish friends embody love as a daily duty required of them as a form of worship, not just as empty speech.
It feels like specificity, really fearlessly drilling down to what you mean here, the real prejudices you had to confront (or whatever) would make it feel as powerful to your readers as it was to you. And, if you have to edit down in order to make things fit, I would cut the travel itinerary. It's interesting, but rather beside your overall point.
Also, this:
Two years ago, I knew next to nothing about Islam.
followed by this:
> I still do not know much about Islam.
kind of derails your point about growth. I think what you mean is that you have a lot more to learn about Islam, not that you are right where you started.

Happy New Year 2011 Everyone!
I've been working on many things this last year and all have related to robotics and especially to my life-size fembot Robot Betty9. She now has a new head and a new neck. I love to "re-purpose" hardware and as such I am using a neck from the Wowwee Chimp. Kind of a mad scientist sort of thing if you think about it, but hey, it works. This new year I intend to give her AI an overhaul. Wish me luck.
Last week programmed Robot Betty9 to sing Auld Lang Syne in celebration of 2011. She is using Vocaloid which although not perfect, does the job.
Here is the link:
So Betty and I wish you a fantastic 2011!

Inexpensive (and Impressive!) Main Dishes for Parties
We are all about entertaining on a budget. Dinner parties should never be sacrificed because of the economy or lack of ability to buy chateaubriand. You can feed a lot of people without spending a fortune, and we've got five dishes that prove it. Just so you know, you'll probably need a big pot.
There are a few myths about throwing a party on the cheap. One is that you should have a bunch of appetizers- a roving, heavy hors d'oeuvres type of affair instead of a sit-down dinner. Not true! We go the opposite route. Make one huge, hulking pot of something (usually a cheap cut of meat that looks way fancier than it is) and accessorize with bread and a simple, roasted vegetable.
Another myth: Going vegetarian is cheaper than serving meat. That can be true at times, and we've got a lot of vegetarian inspiration around here. But meat doesn't have to break the bank; sometimes it's less expensive than buying a bunch of produce and spices for a meatless meal.
Here are five inexpensive main dishes we'd serve at a party:
• 1. Pasta with sausage and greens. It takes so little sausage to flavor a huge pot of noodles; half a pound can often cover four people. (Try this variation on the theme too.) Don't like sausage? Take a look at this template for creating any pasta dish with a bit of meat, cheese, and green.
• 2. Braised short ribs. Slightly more expensive than a half pound of sausage, but still economical. Short ribs are fatty and filling; you don't need huge portions. And you hardly need any other ingredients- just some liquid and a few vegetables or herbs to flavor the braise. This goes for Jamie Oliver's Chicken in Milk, another fabulous inexpensive meal. After the chicken, you really only need a few cloves of garlic, some sage, and a lemon or two. It'll feed four people for less than $10, and that's including some rice on the side.
• 3. Mussels. Again, you need little more than some wine or broth and a few aromatics to turn a big pot of mussels into a fragrant, impressive main dish. Serve a lot of bread (for dipping and because mussels aren't overly filling) and then a decadent chocolate dessert.
• 4. Breakfast for dinner. Sarah Rae talked about this earlier in the week, but it's worth repeating: Eggs are cheap! And it would be a nice, unexpected twist to have friends over for breakfast in the evening. We think bloody marys taste good any time of day.
• 5. Meatballs. Meatballs are one of those throwback meals that a lot of people never make but love to eat. Trust us, if you throw a big platter of meatballs in the middle of the table, people (who eat meat) will be happy. Put them over pasta or make meatball subs. And remember: They'll be great if you use a mix of beef, pork, and lamb, but they'll be great if you go all-chuck, too.

BONIFAY � �I�ve been doing research about code enforcement,� said Bonifay City Mayor Lawrence Cloud during the City Council meeting on Monday, Dec. 10.
BONIFAY � �I�ve been doing research about code enforcement,� said Bonifay City Mayor Lawrence Cloud during the City Council meeting on Monday, Dec. 10.
�We�ve been getting complaints about our city. I�ve got a copy of the code enforcement from another city for the attorney to review and bring back to the next meeting,� Cloud said.
One of the owners of the Merchants parking lot said they were interested in the city paving the parking lot, however the parking lot is owned by three people and two, according to the council, aren�t interested in relinquishing that portion of land to the city.
�We were ready and willing to pave that parking lot, maintain it and put up lights,� said Councilman Roger Brooks. �The other two owners just aren�t willing to deed that small bit of land to the city for maintenance. They could have a very nice, well lit parking lot but there�s nothing we can do.�
Resident Ray Brooks once again came before the council with concerns about the streets and water and sewer lines of Bonifay.
Brooks said that he had seen unmarked trucks coming in on the street of his residence to do patchwork on the intended areas of the road. He said that he was concerned because he thought it could be due to a separation of sewer line joints.
He said that he had a similar experience some time ago when his toilet kept backing up and advised the council that if similar occurrences should happen to the residents on that street then it could be the pipes.
The council members thanked Brooks for his concern and participation.
City Attorney Lucas Taylor updated the council on their recent lawsuit with the owner of the old truck stop on State Road 90 in regards to an easement with a water line.
Taylor advised that as long as the water line wasn�t in use and was cut off from the main line, then the council should perform a quick claim deed back to the owner and back out of the case. The council approved of doing so.
Council also approved of cancelling the meeting on Monday, Dec. 24 due to it being Christmas Eve. The next regularly scheduled meeting is set for 6 p.m. on Jan. 14 at the Bonifay City Hall.

Kim Kardashian has become a renaissance woman of sorts: she's a clothing designer, a reality starlet and model. And now she's adding singer to her impressive array of titles.
Over New Year's, the ubiquitous party girl gave clubgoers a listen to her first single, called "Turn It Up," at the Las Vegas club TAO, reports PopEater.
The track was produced by superstar producer The Dream, who has worked on material for Katy Perry and Rihanna. Kardashian even gave a brief intro to the song before the dance floor filled up.
"Hi you guys, I didn't mean to, but I did this song with The Dream, and it's really fun," she said. "I hope you guys like it!"
Kardashian has already shot a video for the song with well-known director Hype Williams manning the camera. In the clip, she sports corn rows and superstar Kanye West appears in a cameo roll.
