A volunteer coach, Bill Courtney, helps them turn their program and their lives around.
The two LA-based documentary filmmakers spent nine months on location in north Memphis, Tenn. and learned some hard knock lessons from this struggling community.
"From day one we knew we wanted to tell a more of human interest piece and we wanted to make, we saw an opportunity to tell a "coming of age" story and football just happens to be the back drop," co-director TJ Martin said.
"You quickly find out that they're not going to go undefeated," said co-director Dan Lindsay. "That was important for us so that the audience knew from the beginning that this wasn't about wins and losses. This was about a team of people struggling against adversity um and trying to overcome that adversity."
Martin and Lindsay are the co-captains of this big screen project and shared the major behind-the scenes work on "Undefeated."
"We have the same kind of toolbox we can very easily communicate with each other, we don't have to explain anything to each other because we know the things that we need from directing stand point, from a camera stand point, from an editing stand point.
And what do they think about being part of this year's class of Academy Award nominees?
"The honor is to be recognized by your peers for your work is incredible, but for us, the biggest thing is it's an honor to the people in the community we profiled," Lindsay said.

Why You Shouldn't Download Internet Explorer 9 Beta
Today Microsoft releases Internet Explorer 9 Beta for Vista and Windows 7.   IE 9 Beta is not for Windows XP users. For regular home users you do not and should not download it.  It is a beta program and may contain bugs that may not allow your Windows or Internet Explorer to operate normally. Beta programs are put out there for people that want to test it out and find bugs so that when the final version is released it is as bug free as possible.
I have had customers who experienced downloading IE 8 beta when it was released thinking it was just a new update and to their dismay, many functions weren't working.  Betas are for techies, developers, and geeks to play with. The average home user should wait until the official Internet Explorer 9 is released.  If you are prompted to download IE 9 Beta, don't do it unless you are prepared for the consequences. You can always uninstall it if you want but IE 9 Beta is not designed for the average home user.
Thanks for reading.

American Idol Bids Farewell to Matt GiraudMatt Richenthal at . Comments
Matt Giraud was voted off American Idol last night.
But the elimination of this Justin Timberlake wannabe was hardly the biggest news of the night.
Indeed, our jaws are still hurting, considering how hard they hit the floor when Adam Lambert was included in the bottom three vote-getters. As Paula Abdul rightfully said: "This is crazy!"
Fortunately, it wasn't nearly as crazy as she is, as America did at least give Giraud the boot over Lambert. But, come on, people. Don't scare us like that.
As for Giraud, he showed class and appreciation after he was eliminated.
"I'll definitely remember being the cat with nine lives up here," said the singer. "It's definitely not the last time you'll see me."

Understanding what kind of hosting plans are available, as well as their respective merits and limitations, is a must. Continue reading below to learn about the most common types of plans offered by web hosts, or see our detailed guide to web hosting for an in-depth look.
The majority of hosting plans can be categorized into five main types:
Shared: More than suitable enough for many small business and personal blogs/websites, at a price point that won't overwhelm. You'll be renting disk space on a shared (hence the name) Linux-based server with other websites, which means you're also sharing things like RAM, processing power & bandwidth. It's comparable to living in an apartment building: lots of neighbors, shared everything, and limited access to the inner workings of the property. The majority of websites run on shared linux servers.
VPS: If you now require more capacity than shared hosting can offer you then, virtual private server hosting will provide you with increased performance without the expensive bills of a dedicated server. An interesting option if you're looking for improved security, and more control over the server, in an environment with fewer users to place demands on server resources.
Cloud: describes a method of configuring servers in a flexible way to allow for the most affordable, scalable, and reliable web infrastructure. Cloud servers scale with incredible speed. You can expand or reduce servers in seconds to ensure that the server keeps up with demand without wasting money on unnecessary resources.
Dedicated: When you're at the capacity to no longer need to share server resources then dedicated hosting will provide you full access to a physical server. Useful for powering large complex websites & applications, dedicated hosting provides the highest levels of security and server configuration possible.
Reseller Hosting: If you want to sell web hosting while someone else manages and monitors the network, reseller hosting is one option to consider. With reseller packages you buy access to space to servers in bulk, and then "resell" it under your own business name. An advanced hosting type, if you select a reseller plan then you will need to be prepared to provide your customers with technical support.
WordPress Hosting: Launched in 2003 as a blogging platform, WordPress has become a powerful content management system that powers around 26% of websites today. Consider a managed WordPress hosting package optimized for WordPress. If you want to spend less of your time managing the security and performance your WordPress website, and more time building your WordPress-powered website, then this might be the type of web hosting for you.
PHP Hosting: Most hosting providers support PHP hosting, with many now offering PHP7, easy to implement, and boasting a huge development community, PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor is a core feature of many hosting plans. As the programming language that powers popular applications like WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla, if it's PHP hosting you're looking for then you will have no shortage of web hosting options.
Joomla Hosting: Joomla is a content management system (CMS) and web application framework that really shines when asked to organize a large and complex content database, Joomla is a popular framework for building websites and applications. If you want to build website powered by Joomla we've aggregated some hosting options that offer Joomla optimization.
Should I choose Linux Hosting or Windows Hosting?
Other than choosing between shared hosting or more robust hosting packages, your other big choice to make when it comes to picking hosting for your website is the OS (operating system) of the web server.
Linux Web Hosting: The most common web hosting platform in the world, Linux web servers are a good choice for many websites. If you're looking for a hosting platform that can handle today's most common programming languages and applications consider Linux as your hosting platform.
Windows Hosting: Is hosting powered by the Microsoft OS. If you want a server that can handle Windows applications, databases and programming languages like ASP.NET, SilverLight, and MS SQL while still giving you the flexibility to make the most of common web programming languages like PHP, consider the Windows server hosting platform. Expect to pay about 20% more for a Windows-based hosting plan compared to one which is Linux-based.
Hosting Deals and Coupons: occasionally hosting companies offer special deals and offers especially around holidays such as Easter or Christmas and popular shopping weekends such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

Though the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) was formed almost 40 years to organize conservative state legislators and allow them to share and replicate one another's legislative ideas — and has been "soliciting more input from private sector members" about what is good for them for more than 20 years — it wasn't until recently that it attracted almost any scrutiny for its promulgation of everything from Stand Your Ground laws to voter ID to business-friendly tort reforms. That increased scrutiny may have just started to get costly for ALEC.
According to National Public Radio's "Morning Edition" on Thursday, beverage behemoths Coke and Pepsi have both dropped their memberships to the conservative lobbying organization. The advocacy group Color of Change began a call-in campaign on Wednesday threatening a boycott of Coca-Cola and its products. The company announced within hours that it will not be renewing their membership in ALEC.
Color of Change began their campaign in November of 2011 to draw attention to ALEC's legislative agenda, which includes Voter ID laws in multiple states as well as gun laws like the controversial "Stand Your Ground" law in Florida. "Stand Your Ground" was cited by the defense team of George Zimmerman, Jr., the shooter in the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
Pepsi dropped out of ALEC in January. Hoping to capitalize upon the national attention drawn to the Martin case, Color of Change set in motion its national call-in campaign, in which volunteers contacted Coke announcing that they would boycott the company's products if it chose to remain a part of the council.
Coca-Cola released a statement on Wednesday that read, in part, "The Coca-Cola Company has elected to discontinue its membership with the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC). Our involvement with ALEC was focused on efforts to oppose discriminatory food and beverage taxes, not on issues that have no direct bearing on our business. We have a long-standing policy of only taking positions on issues that impact our Company and industry." Information about the length of its involvement in ALEC was not made available.
PepsiCo had been a member of ALEC for more than ten years. When asked about leaving ALEC, the company declined to comment. An ALEC spokesperson said to NPR that the soft drink giant had cited budgetary reasons for its decision.
Increasingly, shareholders and investors are demanding transparency from corporations that engage in political activity. Color of Change strategy director and head of the anti-ALEC campaign Gabriel Rey-Goodlatte told Raw Story that transparency is the best weapon of progressives and consumer advocates.
Color of Change, he said, plans to continue its campaign to publicly expose companies who still support ALEC. The group intends to mobilize supporters through a combination of email and social media.
According to Color of Change, increasing the availability of information to investors and consumers empowers them by informing them of what corporations are doing with their money. An added benefit, however, is that robs organizations like ALEC of the secrecy they need to operate.
"Controversial and dangerous policies like voter suppression and Florida's 'Shoot First' law are not supported by the majority of the public," he said. The more these initiatives are exposed to public scrutiny, he believes, the less likely they are to succeed.
UPDATE: Kraft to pull support from ALEC
Kraft Foods Inc said Thursday that it would not renew its membership with the organization.
"We belong to many external groups, including ALEC, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that promotes growth and fiscal responsibility," the company, which was part of ALEC's corporate board, said in a statement.
"ALEC covers numerous issues but our involvement has been strictly limited to discussions about economic growth and development, transportation and tax policy. We did not participate in meetings or conversations related to other issues.
"Our membership in ALEC expires this spring and for a number of reasons, including limited resources, we have made the decision not to renew."

ZDoggMD Talks Suicide
John Lynn is the Founder of the HealthcareScene.com blog network which currently consists of 10 blogs containing over 8000 articles with John having written over 4000 of the articles himself. These EMR and Healthcare IT related articles have been viewed over 16 million times. John also manages Healthcare IT Central and Healthcare IT Today, the leading career Health IT job board and blog. John is co-founder of InfluentialNetworks.com and Physia.com. John is highly involved in social media, and in addition to his blogs can also be found on Twitter: @techguy and @ehrandhit and LinkedIn.
I was looking to do a Fun Friday post this week and so I went over to see if ZDoggMD had a new parody video I could share with the community. Instead of finding a Fun Friday video, I came across this episode of ZDogg's Incident Report show and podcast that talks about suicide, mental health, and the new Netflix show called 13 Reasons Why.
No doubt this is just the start of the conversation, but I was really glad to see someone with a platform like ZDoggMD talking about mental health and suicide. Check out the conversation below:
I hope that ZDogg covers this topic more in the future and brings on some experts in the area. It's a hard topic for him since his shows are usually so full of humor and sarcasm, but it's ok for him to turn that off for a few shows here and there.
On the video, ZDogg talks about one of my friends that committed suicide in downtown vegas. It was a hard experience for many of us who knew him and had had no idea that he was suffering in silence. I know that many readers of this site have their own stories. Of course, I don't think I need to mention how many doctors are suffering in silence as well. It's a tragic thing and hopefully shows like the one above will help us talk about it more and find better solutions and support.

Ever since I played through Half-Life 2:Episode 2, I told myself one day I would go back and play through it again. My sole purpose? To unlock one of the greatest achievements of all time: Little Rocket Man. So, a few months back I started the trek with my little grey-bearded companion. If I remember correctly, one could easily miss him altogether. If you are curious, he can be found in the first building you enter in Episode2 and he's hiding underneath a bunk bed/shelf. From there on out, he'll travel with you for quite some time. You may even become quite attached. Toward the end of my jot I actually became upset when that chopper would shoot the little guy. I swear that chopper pilot was targeting him on purpose…
I have to admit, there were times when I had to think how to bring him with me. I NEVER found a good way for him to travel in the car with me. It was a constant battle of checking to see WHEN he fell out and going back to pick him up again. When it came to the chopper scene, I eventually had to leave the car behind and take him with me, using each train car to duck under until I finally reached the next load screen in the tunnel.
I had the perception from the start, that I thought I would have to launch him into the silo tube with the zero-g gun right before the rocket takes off. But, it turned out to be much easier than that. When you first arrive to the White Forest Base Camp, you enter the first missle silo. There the rocket is being prepped for launch. Climb the short stairwell to a small open hatch. That's where the little guy goes! To receive the achievement, you have to close the hatch. Don't forget to do that!
I mentioned at the outset that I started playing Ep2 a few months ago. Actually, it was around last October! I picked it up again a few days ago and today I unlocked Little Rocket Man. To this date, this is my most proud/glorious achievement. Some may get frustrated or feel this achievement should be worth far more points, but you have to give it to Valve. IMO this is how achievements should be. Great idea and fun to unlock!
Leave a comment if you have any other questions about this short walkthrough or if you just wanna brag about your Little Rocket Man Achievement!!

When we lived in Texas, our favorite restaurant BY FAR was Lupe Tortilla's. It's a fun family-friendly restaurant with good margaritas and great Tex-Mex food. Signs outside tell customers to expect a wait – if you are in a hurry you are encouraged to come back another time. The wait was always worth it, though, and each location has a children's play area with sand and toys…conveniently located next to the outdoor bar. 🙂
Houston locals know not to bother with a menu. The regular food is good, but if you know the ropes, you order fajitas grandioso for two without bothering to look at the menu. (Heck, I even ordered them once when I dined alone, while traveling back to deal with bad renters in the house we still had there.) Honestly, these are the best fajitas you will ever eat. You can get chicken and/or beef in the restaurant, but beef is my favorite.
- This is skirt steak. No, you may not substitute flank steak. They are not the same!
So God Bless Texas, and "Scott", who posted the fajitas grandioso recipe over at Tastebook. I've made it several times now and I have to say, it's REALLY close. I think the only reason it's not the same is that my cast iron skillet isn't very seasoned yet. Take note: cooking these fajitas on cast iron is a MUST. Any other cookware simply.will.not.do.
- This is a good example of too much meat for the marinade. The marinade should mostly cover the meat.
The first step is the marinade. Scott's recipe calls for marinade for 2 pounds of skirt steak; IMO this is enough for only about 1.5 pounds. You need to have enough marinade for the meat to settled into; otherwise the steak won't be tender enough. It's the citric acid in the lime juice that breaks down the meat, tenderizing it in the process, so you want enough marinade for the steak to sit in. It's not just about the flavor.
- Use real cast iron. The more seasoned the pot, the better the flavor.
After that, you want to grill the steak on medium-high heat. If the temperatures is too high, the outside of the meat will get tough before the inside is cooked. And if it's too low, there won't be enough searing on the outside to really develop the flavor. The other thing I do differently is to cook the meat for awhile, then slice it against the grain and return it to the skillet to finish cooking. I think the flavor develops better this way.
- My favorite way to eat fajitas – homemade flour tortillas, meat, green onions, sour cream, shredded Mexican cheese, and homemade salsa.
Recipe (adapted from Tastebook)
- 1.5 lbs skirt steaks
- 3 garlic cloves, peeled and mashed
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil, plus
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 tablespoons tequila
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 bunch green onions
- 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from real limes)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
Make the marinade by combining the garlic, 1/3 c. vegetable oil, tequila, salt, lime juice, and cumin in a large glass or Pyrex bowl. Cut the steak into 5-6 inch sections, or whatever will fit in your skillet. Place steak in marinade and make sure the marinade covers the meat as thoroughly as possible. Marinade for a minimum of 2 hours; I usually let it sit in the marinade, in the refrigerator, overnight.
Heat your cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When it's hot, place the skirt steak pieces on the skillet and cook until medium-rare, about 10 minutes on each side. The meat should start to develop a slight "crust" on the outside. Remove meat, slice against the grain into strips, and return to pan to finish cooking. At this point, add the green onions (full length or cut in half; not chopped) as well and let them cook in the grease from the meat, along with the remaining 2 TS vegetable oil.
(You can also cook onions and peppers in the grease; I don't like these on my fajitas so I leave them out.)
Serve on warm flour tortillas with Mexican rice, salsa, cheese, sour cream, lettuce, diced tomatoes, etc.
- Funny shot – the top edge of the tortilla is blurry because it started unfolding while I was attempting to take the picture.

Different Crutch Accessories That You Will Find Useful
Being on crutches for extended periods of time can get discouraging. Not only is your independence sacrificed, but crutches can also get painful after a while.
You'll notice that the padding on your crutches weakens over time from putting all your body weight on them. Your hands will start to hurt as your hand grips start to fade away. Crutches are also notoriously difficult to use while carrying other things. As if being injured isn't bad enough, crutches bring problems of their own!
This article talks about a few crutch accessories you can use to make your time on crutches more enjoyable. The crutch accessories discussed in this article are affordable and improve the longevity and safety of your crutches.
Crutch bags
Crutch bags are super useful for when you're out in public alone. Keeping your balance is paramount while on crutches, which makes it hard to carry anything. Unless you have help, basic tasks like shopping or taking the bus become much more challenging.
Crutch bags are usually made out of machine-washable nylon. They fit on the handgrip part of either forearm or underarm crutches. You'll find them incredibly useful for maintaining your independence while on crutches.
One of the best crutch bags on the market is this bag from Vive. This bag fits all adult and youth sized crutches. This is a great accessory for carrying your keys, cell phone, and wallet without worrying about them falling. This bag is also made out of waterproof vinyl and comes with a 60-day guarantee.
Best crutch accessories for more balance? Crutch tips.
Custom crutch tips are a great investment for enhancing crutches you already own. Crutch tips are one of the most important parts of a crutch when it comes to stability and safety.
Buying new crutch tips is great because they give you the confidence to walk on various surfaces safely. The basic tips that come with your crutches have no distinct features to improve grip or stability. You can buy custom crutch tips that make it easier to walk on snow, ice or sand at the beach.
One crutch tip to consider is the Ergocap Rubber tip. This crutch tip is a universal fit on any crutch and uses nonslip material. What makes the Ergocap unique is it's designed to balance perfectly no matter what angle you put your crutches down at. The design of the tip also helps you develop your walking gait, which stops you from compensating with bad posture.
Another excellent crutch tip to consider are the RainGaurd crutch tips. These are also universal fit crutch tips made out of a rubber compound. The RainGuard tips are designed to drain excess water from your crutches with every step. These are great for improving your balance and stability in snow or rain.
Hand grip covers
If you're using underarm crutches, the crutch pad and hand grips can easily get uncomfortable over time. Most crutches have subpar padding that weakens after a few months of use. Buying covers for the crutch pad and hand grips is a great way to make your crutches last longer. You'll also find it easier to walk long distances since your crutches won't be digging into your hands or your armpits.
When looking for handgrip covers, don't go by appearances alone. There are a lot of handgrips that use fluffy materials to make the grips seem softer than normal. Just because a handgrip uses a puffy or soft material, doesn't necessarily make it the best choice.
For example, handgrip covers with gel padding are known for leaking after you use them for a while. High-quality handgrips are usually made out of thick vinyl and may feature an extra layer of soft material for comfort.
These foam handgrips from Crutch Buddies are an excellent choice for any crutch. While they may not look spectacularly comfortable, a lot of people have nothing but positive things to say about these handgrips. These handgrips are designed for underarm crutches and may fit some forearm crutches.
Any of these accessories are great choices for enhancing your crutches. You'll find it easier to get around, and it'll be less of a hassle to keep your independence while on crutches. Leave a comment about your favorite crutch accessories below!

Saint Index Findings Cited in Spectrum Gaming Study for Legislature
Florida has one of the most competitive gambling markets in the nation with a parimutuel industry that "resembles a circular firing squad," a regulatory environment that is a "mess," and any expansion of gambling — such as destination resorts — will result in more expansion because "the industry rarely shrinks."
According to the Miami Herald, those are candid first conclusions contained in the initial installment of an independent study of the gaming industry in Florida released late Monday by the House Select Committee on Gaming.
The Saint Index, which tracks and quantifies support and opposition to a wide range of land use development projects, is cited in the report, which was delivered to the Florida Legislature by the Spectrum Gaming Group as lawmakers attempt to embark on an ambitious plan of rewriting the state's gambling laws and deciding how much expansion to allow.
A casino is consistently the second most opposed type of local development project in the Saint Index results. "This stands in contrast to the American Gaming Association's annual poll, which in 2012 showed that 85 percent of Americans say that casino gambling is acceptable for themselves or others – demonstrating the NIMBY factor," the Spectrum report notes.
What may be the initial report's starkest observation of all, at least according to the Miami Herald, is that Florida may want to stay away from casinos or it will harm the state and Orlando's tourist brand.
The report was commissioned by both House and Senate Select Committees on Gaming, and Spectrum Gaming Group was selected through a competitive procurement process. Spectrum's project team included Dr. Howard Shaffer, associate professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and director of the Division on Addiction at The Cambridge Health Alliance, a Harvard Medical School teaching affiliate; Regional Economic Models Inc. (REMI); Doug Walker, associate professor of economics at the College of Charleston; and, Lori Pennington-Gray, associate director of the Eric Friedheim Tourism Institute at the University of Florida.
This is the first of three reports due to the Legislature. The two additional reports will be delivered by Spectrum on or before October 1, and will cover: Assessment of potential changes and economic effects; and Statistical relationships between gaming and economic variables for communities. Spectrum will not make recommendations in any of its reports. The Legislature commissioned Spectrum to undertake an economic and academic study for the purpose of educating the state's policy makers and other stakeholders so that they may make enlightened decisions regarding the future of gambling in their state.
While this initial report provides a discussion of the many social costs of gambling, Spectrum as part of its next report will determine the costs as they relate to expanded gambling in Florida.

We've written extensively about the pressure campaign led in part by Canada's B'nai Brith to ban the group Queers United Against Israeli Apartheid (QuAIA) from all Pride Toronto events including the LGBTQI pride parade, the Dyke and Trans marches.
B'nai Brith boasted in a May press release:
B'nai Brith Canada has contacted the organizers of Toronto's Pride Parade to urge them ensure that the agenda of the annual Pride Parade is not allowed to be hijacked by the propaganda of anti-Israel agitators. The Jewish human rights organization has also contacted the Prime Minister of Canada, the Premier of Ontario, and the Mayor of Toronto, all contributors to the Pride Parade, asking for a review of the funding in light of the stated agenda of Queers Against Israeli Apartheid.
And after Pride Toronto remarkably agreed to censor the two words "Israeli apartheid" from the parades (while it's perfectly legal to utter the phrase in Israel or write it in Israel's most prestigious newspaper), it seemed as though B'nai Brith and friends won. But after a massive backlash, Pride Toronto has just announced it has overturned the ridiculous decision. Xtra reports:
Pride Toronto (PT) has reversed its May board resolution banning the term "Israeli apartheid" and will instead require all participants to sign and abide by the City of Toronto's non-discrimination policy.
Queers Against Israeli Apartheid (QuAIA) — the target of the ban — has declared a victory and congratulated the queer community for pushing PT to reverse its censorship decision.
"This is a victory for the Palestine solidarity movement, which has faced censorship and bullying tactics from the Israel lobby for far too long," said QuAIA member Tim McCaskell in the release.
Of course, QuAIA now owes a debt of thanks to their opponents who have done more than anyone to make sure the phrase "Israeli apartheid" would be on the lips of just about everyone in Canada following the story. Plus, before the ban was rescinded, QuAIA didn't waste any time in offering an alternative free speech track for pride events. This is creative organizing:
There are a lot of benefits of a wholesome lifestyle. But can medicines help us? In fact, it is not so easy to find trusted web-site. Choosing the best treatment option for a racy disease can get really confusing considering the merits and demerits of the existing treatment methodologies. Diflucan (fluconazole), the first of a new group of synthetic antifungal agents, is existing as a powder for oral suspension. Viagra which is used to treat erectile disfunction and similar states when hard-on is of low quality. Cialis is a medicine prescribed to treat a lot of complaints. What do you know about buy cialis online cheap? Our article focuses on the treatment of erectile dysfunction and buy cialis cheap. Generally, both men and women suffer from sexual dysfunctions. What are the symptoms of sexual disorders? In fact, a scientific reviews found that up to three quarters of men on such preparation experience erectile malfunction.

The most common undesirable side effects of such medications like Cialis is dizziness. This is not a complete list of potential side effects and others may occur. Even if this cure is not for use in women, this medicine is not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby.

"I had spent most of my childhood thinking I was a dog, and I suspect I had aged in dog years. By the time I was ten I had discovered the pain of unbearable loss. I had felt joy and jealousy. Most important of all, I knew how to love and how to let myself be loved. All these things I learnt through animals. Horses and dogs were my family and my friends. This is their story as much as it is mine."
LOVED this autobiography by Clare Balding, well known British television presenter and sports personality who I first came across during the London 2012 Olympics. I remember enjoying her sense of humour and for some reason, I associate her most with the swimming, probably because SA's darling, Chad Le Clos brought many of the swimming events to the forefront of our nation's collective mind when bringing home GOOOOOOOLLLLDDDD!
The title of this book was what initially caught my attention (love the wordplay) and I only realised once I'd begun reading that it was about, and by, the very same Clare Balding of international fame – but not like a typical autobiography at all (thank goodness!)
The quote at the beginning of this post pretty much sums up the sentiment of the book. I liked that each chapter is almost written like a short story (but still very much interlinking) so it's a really easy and enjoyable read if you are looking for something a little more light-hearted…
Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for something different: Clare's honest accounts of her childhood antics are very amusing and tender, and I have to admit that I did shed a tear or two at the end because I thought she summed it all up really beautifully.

Kejriwal requests Anna not to fast; supporters protest at 7 RCR
Anti-corruption campaigner Anna Hazare today said that India had no future with Congress and BJP. He also said that he would not contest elections or form any political party. Anna's ultimatum to Centredelhi Updated: Jul 28, 2012 19:54 IST
Anna Hazare's close aide Arvind Kejriwal appealed to the social activist not to sit on fast citing his health even as supporters protested at Prime Minister Manmohan Singh residence.
"His health is not well. We lost Mahatma Gandhi at a wrong time, We lost Jaiprakash Narayan early and we cannot afford to lose Anna now. So I request Anna not to fast," he said.
Scores of people suspected to be supporters of Team Anna staged a demonstration at 7 Race Course Road, the residence of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Police have taken several protestors into custody.
The protestors allegedely pelted stones at the PM's residence.
However, India Against Corruption (IAC) media coordinator Aswathi Murlidharan said the protest at 7 RCR was not organised by them.
Setting the tone for his fast, Hazare attacked the Congress and BJP saying the country's future does not lie safe in their hands and talked about the need for a political alternative in the 2014 elections, during which he will campaign for those with clean background selected by people.
However, he declared he will not contest the elections or form a party.
He also accused the government of cheating the people repeatedly on lokpal and said he was forced to fast again and again, which is "not a happy thing".
"I will fight for Jan Lokpal till I die," said Hazare, whose four-day ultimatum to government on a decision on his demands ends on Saturday or else he goes on fast.
Hazare and Kejriwal spoke on a similar vein on the low turnout at the venue attacking political parties and the media.
While Hazare took a dig at parties saying even during election rallies major portions of venues remain empty, his aide targeted the media alleging they do not have the courage to highlight "flop shows" of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.
"People say Anna has flopped. There is a design to make Anna flop. Corrupt people are hoping that Anna flops. If Anna flops, the country will flop," he said while Hazare noted, "the colour of your spectacle determines the colour you see."
Weekend provided some respite for Team Anna as moderate crowds turned up at their indefinite fast on Saturday.
Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia and Gopal Rai were fasting since Wednesday morning at Jantar Mantar against corruption and for a strong lokpal. Hazare said he will sit on fast from Sunday.
Team Anna has accused 14 cabinet ministers including the Prime Minister of corruption and demanded a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the charges.
Hazare and his team members have also been demanding setting up of a fast track court to try criminal cases against MPs and a SIT to look into allegations against some of the political parties' chiefs.
Narayanasamy slams Team Anna | Cong slams Team Anna, Digvijaya dares them to contest polls | Anna hints at 'people's party' for in 2014 LS polls
Anna Hazare : "Now that Pranab Mukherjee is President its not right to attack his office and post. That's why I congratulated him"— barkha dutt (@BDUTT)
Its not about Anna Hazare. Its about fighting corruption and killing it. Every Indian must commit himself to that one task.— Pritish Nandy (@PritishNandy)

Winter Park, Fla. (PRWEB) January 14, 2014
To support the voluminous local assessment demands that school districts across the country are facing, Performance Matters™ has announced the initial release of the company's next generation assessment platform, PM UNIFY. UNIFY is the first social platform designed for educators involved in local assessment development or assessment administration.
Part of Performance Matters' award-winning assessment and data management system, UNIFY will provide the capacity educators need to assess students in all course areas, not just those tested by states. The platform's modular technology incorporates a workflow engine to support the end-to-end process of assessment development, including blueprinting, item authoring and review, test generation and test administration. In addition, UNIFY incorporates the current Question and Test Interoperability (QTI) standards to ensure educators will be able to author and administer the new interactive item types, in addition to traditional multiple choice items.
School districts subscribing to UNIFY will have ready access to assessment content that is locally developed, licensed through third parties, or contributed by collaborative participants. The robust security in UNIFY ensures that all assessment content will be protected as per copyright or licensure, or as specified by the local school district.
"UNIFY has been a part of our vision for years and it is exciting to see it come to fruition," said Woody Dillaha, CEO and co-founder of Performance Matters. "We believe strongly that UNIFY has the potential to strengthen teaching, get students more interested and engaged in the testing process and ensure that assessments are more accessible and affordable. People are tuned into social networking; educators are ready to leverage this incredible tool."
This month, UNIFY will be deployed at one of Performance Matters' large customer sites, a district that is developing assessments for 420 courses. Performance Matters will release UNIFY to its entire customer base this spring.
"We've developed the next generation assessment platform that supports the full lifecycle of creating and managing technology enhanced items based on the QT12.1 industry standards," said James Waters, co-founder and CTO of Performance Matters. "Our development team has done an unbelievable job with UNIFY; the system takes a very complex process and makes it easy and intuitive for our users."
About Performance Matters
Performance Matters helps K-12 school systems improve student learning by providing comprehensive, integrated solutions for assessment, data management and teacher effectiveness. Based in Winter Park, Fla., Performance Matters' solutions are used by school districts across the country. For more information, visit http://www.performancematters.com or call (407) 645-1800.

Intrepids office reported March 9: Captain Kevin Osborne called in this morning at five A.M.
We have 5 cows so far this morning at the Hurricane Bank, he said. The fishing this morning is very good.
The day before, Osborne wrote: We had a very fun filled day today with the bite starting out for us around 4am on the jigs and Big Baits. As the sun peaked up over the horizon with a spectacular fiery red and orange glow the Tuna really started biting. We had four to five fish hanging for most of the morning, then it settled into a steady one to three fish for most of the day. Just after lunch the Show really kicked into high gear as a large bait ball was pushed out from under us and the big Tuna went off crashing through the bait. It was impressive to say the least. They continued to blast the surface for a good 15 minutes and then they rods went Bendo once again. Pete gave us a show hooking into a couple of 130-pounders on the Yummy Flyer rig and Panama Joe put on a clinic today seeming to hook fish whenever he desired. Ray Griffin had a big day landing three nice fish and Chartermaster John Grindley also had five good Tuna for the day. The fish today were the stock Bank fish from 60 to 200 pounds with the majority being the 120 to 170-pound class. We are positioned just right and hoping for another big day tomorrow.
"A whole lot of angst and hand wringing here as the dreaded result of finding far less than we left behind appeared to be what we bumbled into. No guts, no glory, no pain, no gain, yeah, all of that sounds great until the pain is real. That sickening malaise that washes over one when they realize they are painted into a corner obscures heroic notions in short order. But it doesn't halt the effort; far too many successful outcomes have occurred in the face of obvious doom.
"At the very least we were looking for a change of pace, and that is exactly what we got. Far from glory but enough to deem the effort worthy the results did not come until the eleventh hour when a couple of handfuls of bigger fish moved in from the deeps and gave us what we came for. The pain and gain was not fully distributed, a few were left out in the cold shunned from the party, but eight or nine dandy's in the 140 to 170-pound class made it over the rail in addition to a few smaller models that met their maker in light of the day's earlier paltry results. One fish squeaked over the coveted two hundred mark weighing in at a respectable 203.
"It was a bit of a nail-biter but that is fishing. The weather is fantastic, beautiful, gorgeous. The scenery is equally stunning. We have bait, time, and the drive to root out a few more of these jumbos that I am certain are still around. Apart from the weather and sea state I can't report that fishing conditions are particularly ideal, but Mother Nature's folly is our cross to bear. In light of how this place presented it's challenges throughout the day we are in no position to complain. In actuality we are mighty pleased with the day's results.
"Photos for the day rightly feature veteran long range angler Cathy Needleman who proves time and again that good things come in small packages. In competition with fish that are way bigger than her the consistency of Cathy's triumphs are something to behold. The old 'mind over matter' adage definitely applies.
"At about five feet tall and no more than one hundred pounds, the inspirational image of Cathy pulling on, and standing next to, trophy yellowfin tuna much larger than her is admittedly incongruous. But the results are plain to see, and I hope convincing to any and all other lady anglers out there considering a long range voyage.
"Photo number one features Cathy pulling on a good one with Captain Brian Sims standing by, Photo number two features Cathy with the above mentioned 203 she landed through a horde of sharks at the end of the day.

New Heavyweight In The C-Suite
In the boardroom, more and more often one finds a Chief Technology Officer sitting next to the CEO, CFO, CMO en COO. The reason for is clear. No organizational or financial expert is able to assess strategic impact of the dazzling amount of technological innovations. However, CTO's can; as they dare to choose innovations that are - sometimes - opposing mainstream thinking but are favorable to meet company goals on the longer run. "Wild ducks is what we are."
Can a management and organization expert of a big ICT company assess whether a new party on the market has developed an interesting algorithm for research on the Big Bang? Surely not: this expert is at a loss for words. Big Bang? Algorithm? This is one bridge too far, not only for the expert in question, but for financial experts and communication specialists as well. In order to consider the abovementioned device, one needs a Chief Technology Officer.
The Chief Technology Officer is a new heavyweight in the technical labor market. "In the last couple of years new Chiefs have popped up ever more frequently" Thijs Manders mentions.
Self-learning computers
"Wild ducks is what we are.", says Gerard Smit of IBM Benelux, referring to the rare combination of qualities a CTO possesses: a fascination with cutting-edge technology and insight in financial profit. Smit: "We screen important trends on the intersection of market, organization studies and technology and then explain them in dummy-proof language to our fellow board members. What do decisions imply? Should we make investments? Does a takeover candidate yield added value? We are supposed to say prudent things about these matters".
In IBM Benelux's board, next to Smit, there are the General Manager Benelux, the CMO, CFO, COO and the six business-unit managers. Smit: "It does happen that our General Manager calls me at ten at night about making a quick decision. Then I put together a research team to evaluate whether a technical solution is feasible or whether a financial matter is profitable.
When Smit mentions the developments about which decisions have to be made, we understand at once why his fellow board members feel slightly anxious at times. With great joy Smit tells about the already mentioned cooperation with other parties on research about the Big Bang, sensor technology for water management, the self-learning computer named Watson (that, through dialogues with an oncologist, advises on complex cancer problems) and cognitive computing with neuron chips for self-learning computers. Smits says: "Those chips have 256 neurons (processors), 256 axioms (memory) and 64,000 synapses (connections). They are the brainchild of neuroscience, nanotechnology and supercomputing. Computers are starting to learn, think and act like human beings. We invest a lot of money in it, but our General Manager likes to leave the weighing of pros and cons to us, technicians."
An important advising role
A wild duck dares to take unorthodox steps. The same goes for CTOs. Smit frequently introduces partners from unexpected places. He says: "A market party had developed a fan with an air stream that was compressed in such a way that the amount of DBs could decrease by 25 per cent, whilst energy was saved and the cooling capacity increased. Up till then this technology was only used for fridges, but is also very suitable for computers. A board member would never have come up with an idea like that".
A similar story was told to us at Vanderlande Industries, a specialist in automated systems for luggage handling and the sorting of packages in distribution centres. At Vanderlande, Vincent Kwaks is CTO. From strategic, tactical and operational perspectives, Kwaks keeps a close eye on developments on the market. He plays an 'initiating and strongly felt advising role' in Vanderlande's Innovation Roadmap. He is the man when it comes to technical content. He also makes decisions about the question whether strategic knowledge should be hired 'in the house' or rather be contracted out.
Kwaks: "In view of our business model Vanderlande must be innovative. As a CTO, I consequently have to think outside-of-the-box. Cradle to cradle (i.e. the recycling and rendering biodegradable of machines and waste material) is an important development to us. Through Michael Baumgart we met new partners and got acquainted with brand new techniques. We connect the latter to the newest trends in our own fields, like vision technology, mechatronics, real-time controlling, energy technique and material science. If we do this in the right way, we have an added value for customers like Plus, Zalando, Amazon and Nike. By purchasing a Vanderlande system, they increase their return more than by putting their money in the bank.
Directing and pushing
The CTO's voice is also heard in the SimGas boardroom. SimGas is a design and production company for affordable basic amenities (like energy and sanitation) for consumers in Africa and Asia. The SimGas management team consists of a CEO, a business developer and a CTO called Chandler Hatton. She directs the product strategy and stimulates product development. Hatton: "My R&D team is involved from the first drafts all the way up to our production lines in Tanzania and Kenia. We wish to become market leader in Africa and Asia. In order to accomplish this, I make decisions about strategic investments in product development and joint ventures with strong partners".
Biogas has special qualities. It ensures a strong decrease in diseases and death rates among women and children caused by indoor air pollution. Cooking on biogas instead of wood makes sure that kitchens stay clean and soot-free. On top of that, the use of biogas counters deforestation and desertification.
By innovating extremely, SimGas makes this sustainable technology attainable for large groups of people. The systems must be suitable to be build up in three days' time (instead of three weeks), they must be light-weight (150 kilos of recycled synthetic material instead of 12,000 kilos of concrete and bricks), it must be possible to produce them in large quantities and they must be so cheap that households in the mentioned regions can afford one.
With the help of her R&D team, Hattons estimates which are the most promising developments. Hatton says: "Good R&D costs much less than bringing an average product on the market. Our R&D routes emanate from a close cooperation with the business developers and the operations team. The interaction between product development in The Netherlands and the implementation in East-Africa requires short communication lines and flexible work processes. Only then a technologically innovative concept can become a product that is ready to be brought on the market".
Seeing right through it
The CTO keeps track of trends, which has its pros and cons. A multinational like IBM receives many 'break-through', 'cutting-edge' ideas from creative people and fortune hunters. The most promising of these are tested and, sometimes, one sees right through its downside. Gerard Smit gives a nice example: "Some months ago, I was contacted about a compression machine that could be improved a million times. We tested it in our research centre in Zurich. It turned out to be an urban legend."
Kwaks of Vanderlande is also frequently put on the spot. This means: testing. As an example, Kwaks mentions RFID technology: "This development has affected our field for thirty years now. It is a great technique for labeling and tracing products. We have started with this a couple of times and then given up on it again. The last time we did this was not so long ago, after a test on airports. We established that the number of airports that wished to continue with it, was limited. Besides, one of our partners already had the required knowledge. So then I said: Let's not go there".

I have a website that needs to be edited from 3 different locations (UK, US and Romania) and we are trying to set up Version control. i have installed on my server Apache and CobaltNet Subversion Edge, we have opened port 3690 to conect to the server, now.. we can't connect to the server using an SVN connection but we can connect using an HTTP connection but when we try to edit the web page we get the following message:
This is the how we have set up our version control:
Any help will be highly appreciated as we need to deply Contribute in the next 10 days.
Thank you!
1. 3690 is the Default Port, changing the server port to "Default" option should ideally work.
2. Is the page which is edited created before enabling Subversion OR after enabling Subversion for the website? If the page is already created then subversion would throw error, since it is not there in its repository.
Hi Mate,
thanks for replying!
i am trying to enable version control before connecting to the website now but it wont let me, i have deleted the website that we are trying to edit and then i go to edit-my connections but i cant access the version control option.
would it be useful to try and connect using http? and if so do you have any idea how to do it?.. i have been on the phone to Adobe but they said that it is a fault at our end because we have not configured the subversion server propperly and in all honesty we have no idea how to do that.

For my comment on the Labour government's ill-considered proposal to criminalise prostitution, see:
How Jews Cause Antisemitism
In my Jewish Chronicle column of 07 December 2007 I posed the question whether Jews cause, to any degree, the prejudice from which they suffer. My column focussed on the anonymous donations made to the Labour party by a Jewish property magnate. A number of correspondents have asked me for other specific examples. Well, here is one, ongoing, that does I think get to the heart of the matter.
In May 2005 the governors of the Beis Soroh Schneirer school for Jewish primary-age girls applied to the London Borough of Barnet for planning permission to convert for their purposes a disused warehouse on an industrial estate in West Hendon. The planning committee, for very cogent reasons, unanimously refused the application. But what the governors had not told the committee was that they intended to move the school into the warehouse whatever the outcome of the application. And on the very next morning after planning permission had been refused builders started converting the warehouse.
Not to put too fine a point on it, the governors had stuck two fingers up at the elected local authority. In mid-September 2005 the school opened for business. Barnet Council issued an enforcement notice, but by this time some 200 girls were already being educated in the converted warehouse. What was the government inspector (who heard the planning appeal) to do but to acquiesce in a fait accompli? He did, it is true, ask the school to make a contribution of £20,000 towards the cost of implementing various traffic management measures. In a typical display of chutzpah the governors pleaded that on the grounds of poverty they could only afford £5,000. More than a little odd – you might think - because the school been able to retain, at the appeal hearing, the services of one of the country's foremost barristers specialising in town-planning cases.The school's supporters have alleged that opposition to the school is being fuelled by local Muslims. This is nonsense. The chair of the West Hendon Community Forum happens to have been PA to the late Earl Mountbatten. The Community Forum's objections have been endorsed by none other than the local MP, Andrew Dismore – and by me (I live less than two miles from the industrial estate in question).
In his ruling the government inspector agreed that the warehouse can continue to be used as a school until 31 December 2008, but ruled that it must meanwhile be genuinely advertised for sale as a building designated for industrial use. Of course, no such advertisement has yet been published. Nor, to the best of my knowledge, has the promised £5,000 contribution towards traffic-management been forthcoming.
The school's governors and supporters are no doubt feeling very pleased with themselves. But in my view what has really been achieved is the creation of anti-Jewish prejudice where none existed before.
Thursday, 20 December 2007
Captain Sir Richard Burton, the 19th century explorer and adventurer, who first translated the Kama Sutra into English and was one of the earliest Christians to enter Mecca, was both an anti-Semite and a plagiarist, according to new research published by the Royal Asiatic Society.
These stark conclusions appear in an article on Burton in the January 2008 edition of the Society's Journal (published December 2007), written by two of the country's leading experts in the history of anti-Jewish prejudice in modern Britain.
In 1989 Professor Geoffrey Alderman (University of Buckingham) and Professor Colin Holmes (University of Sheffield) were permitted to read an unpublished manuscript penned by Burton in the 1870s, and subsequently purchased by the Board of Deputies of British Jews.
In their article, Professors Alderman and Holmes unravel the history of the manuscript, in which Burton alleged that Jews murder Christians in order to use their blood for ritual purposes.
"Burton completely believed in these medieval allegations," Alderman and Holmes said, "but most Burton scholars have ignored or belittled his anti-Jewish prejudices as they have presumably found them embarrassing, and not in accordance with the heroic tale they wish to tell."
They also demonstrate that most of what Burton wrote in the manuscript was copied, verbatim, from a work published in France in 1847, and which Burton probably read in the British Museum. "The manuscript (they said) contains not a single original idea."
In 1871, following complaints from the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, Gladstone's government removed Burton from his post as British Consul in Damascus. He blamed his removal on Jewish influence, and wrote the manuscript in a fit of pique. On his death an attempt was made to publish it, but after a protracted legal action the Jewish Deputies bought it, so that it could be "suppressed forever." The Deputies' attempt to auction the manuscript in 2001 gave rise to an international outcry; it failed to reach its reserve, and was withdrawn from sale. It now remains under lock and key.

Home > Newsroom > News Search > Cone Health Hospitals Collect Three Employee-Centered Awards
Published on November 12, 2015
Annie Penn Hospital collects its third award, Moses Cone Hospital earns recognition for involving physicians and the hospital's emergency department becomes a "success story."
For the third consecutive year, Annie Penn Hospital has been named a Guardian of Excellence Award® winner by Press Ganey Associates, Inc. The Guardian of Excellence Award recognizes how involved employees are in their work. Moses Cone Hospital earned an award for physician involvement. The hospital emergency department was recognized for innovation and leadership.
"I tell people all of the time that Annie Penn Hospital is a very special place," says Behavioral Medicine Service Line President and Annie Penn Hospital President Debbie Green, DNP, RN. "Our employees put the patient in the very center of what they do. When you have a staff like that, patients can't help but receive exceptional care. "
Green credits an active employee council, a highly visible administrative team that empowers employees and employees willing to live the Cone Health value of "Caring for Each Other" for the work environment at the hospital.
The Press Ganey Guardian of Excellence Award is a nationally-recognized symbol of achievement in health care. Presented annually, the award honors clients who consistently sustained performance in the top 5% of all Press Ganey clients for each reporting period during the course of one year.
Moses Cone Hospital received a 2015 Press Ganey Commitment to Excellence Award™ for work on physician engagement. This award honors Moses Cone Hospital for continuous improvement over two years in the number of physicians who are enthusiastic about and active in their work at Cone Health.
"We achieved this distinction through the commitment of our entire team at Moses Cone Hospital," says Cone Health Executive Vice President and Moses Cone Hospital President Mickey Foster. "It takes everyone working together to provide the best care for our patients," continues Foster. "An extremely engaged team will undoubtedly deliver higher quality services."
In addition to the Press Ganey Commitment to Excellence Award™, the Moses Cone Hospital emergency department was recognized with a Success Story Award®. Employees were given greater input into decision making on the unit. Processes were also put into place to solicit, track and implement employee ideas for improvement.
"One of the primary keys to success is empowering each team member to make decisions that put our patients first," says Foster. "The more ownership each employee has, the better care we are able to provide our patients."
The awards were presented yesterday at the Press Ganey National Client Conference in Orlando, Florida.

The American Shorthair cat is a breed in its own right. It is a medium-sized cat with a hard coat of any color and almond-shaped eyes.Continue Reading
American Shorthairs are descended from cats brought to the American colonies and allowed to breed unrestricted for centuries, making them a natural breed. Deliberate breeding programs starting in the late 1800s produced the pedigreed American Shorthairs exhibited in cat shows today. The breeding programs were introduced in response to shorthair breeds from other regions being exhibited in American shows. American breeders decided they wanted their own regional breed to represent the American working cat. The American Shorthair is one of five breeds originally recognized by the CFA when the organization began to establish breeding standards in 1906.Learn more about Cats
