'That Which Makes Us Haida: the Haida Language' exhibit at Bill Reid Gallery
A very dramatic and moving exhibit has just opened at the Bill Reid Gallery in Vancouver.
It's called 'That Which Makes Us Haida: The Haida Language'. It's the culmination of 8 years of work photographing, interviewing and audio-taping the last surviving fluent speakers of the Haida language. There are fewer than 40 elders who learned Haida as their first language - and still speak fluently. Their average age is about 85 - and many died before seeing the exhibit launched. The installation and accompanying book document their heroic efforts to keep the language alive. The exhibit is at the gallery until September. Pamela Post has a tour of the show.

There is still a current disagreement between the Miami Heat and their big man, Chris Bosh with regards to the status of the latter about playing again in the NBA. NBA rumors claim that the Heat could trade or waive the big man and both parties will see a bitter end to their partnership.
Tom Ziller of SB Nation contends that the current impasse between Bosh and the Heat will be a problem for both sides. Bosh wants to play despite what the Miami team doctors told him and there is belief that the Heat wants Bosh to retire so they can have some relief on their salary cap if he medically retires.
Ziller explained three options on how the Heat-Bosh drama will end up. One is that Miami will end up buying out Bosh's contract, second is that the Heat will trade Bosh and third is that a third party, or the NBA, will step in and find a compromise between the two parties.
ALSO READ: LeBron James, Chris Bosh reunion in Cleveland possible? Cavaliers could offer Kevin Love to Miami Heat
Bosh also released a documentary, titled "Rebuilt" regarding his planned comeback and with the situation now public, the Heat and the NBA will be forced to make a decision soon.
The first episode of the documentary is called "Lost" and Bosh shared a story on how the Heat team doctors told him that his NBA career is done.
"The team doctors, they told me that my season's over, my career is probably over, and yeah, this just happened, this is just how it is. I felt right away that I was written off. It was so just … you know, put it to [the] side, matter-of-factly. If a doctor tells me, 'Hey, that's it, this is how it is,' and I don't buy it, I think that I have the right to disagree with you," Bosh said in the video.
"I know inside me I have a lot of talent and a lot of ability and … I have it, I know I have it. It wasn't a matter of if I'm going to play again, but when. So I took the bull by the horns."
The Heat will save some money against the salary cap if Bosh medically retires. They will gain some cap space in the 2017 free agency and this will help their rebuilding process. However, if Bosh wants to play, he has to convince doctors that he is not at risk by suiting up again for another NBA team.
The other option for the Heat is to trade Bosh. It's going to be difficult because of his blood clot issues and his huge salary will pay the big man $75 million over the next three years.
ALSO READ: Chris Bosh to Dallas Mavericks possible if All-Star PF demands trade
Via ESPN's Trade Checker, a Chris Bosh to Houston in exchange for Trevor Ariza, Corey Brewer and K.J. McDaniels works under NBA trade rules. These NBA rumors and speculations can only happen if the Rockets want to take the risk with Bosh and his injury issues.

SOURCE: PeerApp Ltd.
March 14, 2011 07:00 ET
NEWTON, MA--(Marketwire - March 14, 2011) - PeerApp, the leader in Content Delivery Platforms and Transparent Internet Caching, announced today the successful deployment and expansion of its UltraBand 5000 platform to process 250Gbps of network traffic. A major tier 1 operator in East Asia with millions of subscribers is experiencing tremendous benefits from its UltraBand deployment with increased subscriber Quality of Experience (QoE) and dramatic networks savings -- with over 200Gbps of the operator's network traffic being generated and served from the UltraBand transparent Internet cache. The operator chose PeerApp after extensive trials and testing because the UltraBand is the most scalable, datacenter efficient and truly transparent solution in the industry that automatically adapts to the most popular content and services.
PeerApp's UltraBand is the world's only transparent Internet cache and content delivery solution that supports video, HTTP file downloads, software updates and peer-to-peer in a single, modular and scalable architecture. The UltraBand grid computing architecture and scalable, shared storage provides a highly reliable and fault tolerant platform that allows operators to leverage a single solution for all traffic types and efficiently scale as the network grows without expensive load balancing equipment, continual software updates or subscriber affecting downtime. The patented UltraBand software allows an operator to "set and forget" the solution: after installation, the operator never modifies their network or interrupts their business processes to manage the solution. The wide range of protocol and service support in a single software solution means the system adapts to changes in user trends and content automatically with no network equipment or configuration changes.
"Tier 1 operators continue to demand the most from their solution providers and this operator chose PeerApp because the scalability of the solution and the truly transparent architecture is superior to any other in the industry," said Jim Ryan, PeerApp's VP of International Sales. "Over 150 operators in over 50 countries have deployed the solution, validating the UltraBand as the number one transparent Internet caching solution in the world."
PeerApp's intelligent media cache enables network operators to increase their customers' QoE and optimize network performance by delivering content inside the operator's network, eliminating latency and congestion associated with Internet transit and content web servers. The improved user performance allows an operator to live up to marketing commitments for customer connection speed and differentiated classes of service. Additionally, the solution reduces bandwidth OPEX and allows the deferral of capacity purchases by handling requests without file transfers from the Internet. The solution is truly transparent to the Internet and strictly follows the guidelines of the DMCA and International standards for transparent Internet caching -- providing operators protection from copyright infringement liabilities.
About PeerApp Ltd.
PeerApp is the leading infrastructure provider of Content Delivery Platforms and Transparent Internet Caching, enabling operators to: control and monetize rich media content, improve network efficiency, enhance subscribers' QoE and offer new Internet content services. PeerApp was founded in 2004 and is headquartered in Newton, Massachusetts, USA. For more information, visit www.peerapp.com.

The latest and greatest on CNN iReport, brought to you by Team iReport.
A range of emotions lit up our site as iReporters celebrated, traveled and reflected on some big events that happened this past week. We're highlighting this week's interesting iReports, so check them out!
South by Southwest (SXSW) – an annual music, film and technology conference – was in full swing this week. Many of us weren't lucky enough to experience the interactive booths and impromptu music concerts firsthand, so we lived vicariously through our iReporters who sent in an array of photos and videos of SXSW through their eyes. First-time iReporter Chris Janka sent in an image of himself standing in the Canon screening room, where he was surrounded by more than 95,000 photographs from a documentary project by Ron Howard. The photo gallery was composed entirely of user-generated photographs. The Santa Monica native said he felt amazed and overwhelmed to be surrounded by all the images and their stories: "It just seems with technology being at the state it's in it is really empowering people, young and old, to capture moments in their life."
Occupy protests shut down D.C.'s K Street
The Occupy movement is still alive across the U.S., as Michael Kandel documented through a photo earlier this week. As a freelance photographer in Washington, D.C., Kandel said he keeps his ear close to the ground to see where Occupy demonstrations will take place around the D.C. area. On this particular night he followed a group of Occupy protesters from the White House to K Street, where the group ended up lying down in the middle of the road, blocking traffic. "I think if you can stop people on the street, then you are drawing attention to your message, I mean it got my interest piqued," he said.
The mood was somber as people across the world reflected on the earthquake and tsunami disasters that hit Japan one year ago. Cristian Williams captured images from Hibiya Park in Tokyo where people gathered to remember those they lost. "There was also a mutual feeling of respect among the audience. Respect towards those affected, and respect towards those who weren't directly affected, but still attended the ceremony," he said. Williams was one of the dozens of iReporters who sent us their thoughts, images and stories on the anniversary of the disaster; you can see it all woven together into the CNN piece "Lost and found: Japan One Year Later."
iReporters celebrated math with dessert by sending in pictures and recipes of their favorite pie dishes for March 14th. Michele Hays sent in a delicious photograph of her pie, ingeniously dubbed (Pi)neapple and rhubarb pie. For the past few years, Hays has been baking up pi-inspired pies, and considers herself a math appreciator. "I'm not particularly good at math. However, I do love to cook, and I'm learning that cooking is really a system of applied mathematics."
The routine runway taxiing of American Airlines flight 2332 came to an halt as the screams of one flight attendant poured out of the aircraft's intercom system. Passenger Laurie Grabe captured the chilling screams of the flight attendant as she demanded passengers get off the plane. The flight attendant said the plane was likely to crash, which many saw as an allusion to September 11th. Grabe's iReport became one of the most popular videos on our site that day and was featured on CNN television as well. OutFront's Erin Burnett interviewed Grabe on television, where they talked about the incident and the passengers' reactions.
Is news happening where you are, or do you have an opinion you'd like to share? You could be part of next week's Best of iReport: Share your story now.

Last week we showed you the 200-inch Pyrex disc as it arrived in Pasadena in April, 1936. This week's photo shows the face of the disc before the opticians had a chance to do their work.
As you can see in this picture from April 24, 1936 there were a number of large defects in the surface of the glass. It was the optician's job to grind past the surface defects before the process of placing the f/3.3 curve to the surface.

The fad is dying?
Thank goodness.

Hmmm. I chuckled but I surely did not laugh out loud as some would say.
Meh... I would dispute the "not to be missed". It's okay, but on the end of a dying fad, and not as well done as others I've seen. Also (and this isn't a complaint) it's mostly episode clips, with a few bits of the trailer here and there.

Luxury Home Values Hold Steady in Second Quarter
Prices Up Modestly in San Francisco, Flat in San Diego, and Down Slightly in Los Angeles Compared To First Quarter of Year
Luxury home values in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco were steady in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of the year, according to the First Republic Prestige Home Index™ by First Republic Bank, a leading provider of private banking and wealth management services.
In the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Index indicated the following:
- Los Angeles area values decreased 1% from the first quarter of 2010 and declined 5.9% compared to the second quarter of 2009. The average luxury home in Los Angeles is now $1.96 million.
- San Diego area values dropped 0.3% from the first quarter of 2010 and fell 2.1% year-over-year. The average luxury home in San Diego is now $1.72 million.
- San Francisco Bay Area values climbed 1.8% from the first quarter and dropped 1.3% over the past year. The average luxury home in San Francisco is now $2.59 million.
"Luxury homes in most high-end communities in California held their value in the second quarter of 2010," said Katherine August-deWilde, President and Chief Operating Officer of First Republic Bank. "Prices have stabilized since the beginning of the year. Although buyers are somewhat uncertain due to current economic conditions, low mortgage rates are attracting buyer attention."
First Republic Bank produces the Prestige Home Index each quarter with Fiserv CSW Inc., a leading provider of automated property valuation services and home price metrics to U.S. financial institutions. Historical results of the Index, which has tracked luxury homes since 1985, are accessible at www.firstrepublic.com. First Republic Bank is an active lender in the luxury home market for both primary residences and vacation homes.
The rate of decline decreased in the Los Angeles market compared to the first quarter, as well as the second quarter a year ago.
Kathryn Shafer of John Aaroe Group in Beverly Hills said pricing is even more critical than normal in the current market. "There is pent-up demand among buyers," Shafer said. "If a home is priced well, it will sell. If it is on the market for 60 days to 100 days, you will see a 10% to 17% reduction in the sale price. I don't see any large fluctuations in price either negative or positive for the remainder of the year."
Barry Host of South Bay Brokers in Manhattan Beach agreed that buyers are demanding properties be priced to reflect current value. "Clients want to see that the properties are priced at or very close to the actual value, or the homes will sit," he said. "There is a lot of emotion in the market right now about what is going to happen for the rest of the year."
Values in San Diego dipped slightly from the first quarter, while the year-over-year decline in the second quarter was the smallest in more than two years.
In La Jolla, Rancho Santa Fe and Del Mar, agents said the higher end of the market has been soft. "Under $2 million, there is a market for sellers, but proper pricing is critical," said Greg Noonan of Prudential California Reality in La Jolla. "For homes over $2 million, the market is more challenging. I'm not convinced it has bottomed out. Buyers will have phenomenal opportunities to find properties at great prices over the next 18 months."
Peggy Chodorow of Prudential California Real Estate in La Jolla agreed. "We have reasonable activity up to the $2 million range, and virtually nothing over $4 million," she said. "Our high end has been hit very hard. Buyers are not sure whether we are in a recovery or whether we're going to have a slump for the next three years. On the other hand, the inventory is sensational. You'll be hard pressed to find a market with this much choice."
Values in the San Francisco Bay Area increased for the second straight quarter.
"As the volume comes back, we're expecting to see modest appreciation over the next 24 months," said Mark McLaughlin, CEO of Pacific Union International & Christie's Great Estates. "The second quarter was substantially better than what I think the third quarter will be. But it is hard to predict because there has been so much disruption to the market cycle."
Ana Dierkhising of Hill & Co. Real Estate in San Francisco said affordable loans are stimulating demand. "Historically low interest rates are keeping buyers in the marketplace. Buyers are pickier and are deducting for any challenges to the property. However, they are definitely buying if they feel the property is worth it. There have been multiple offers in Pacific Heights and Presidio Heights – the places with unique views and one-of-a-kind properties."
In the South Bay, the market was not as active as in San Francisco. "As soon as we entered the summer, the markets definitely started to slow," said Benjamin Guilardi of Alain Pinel Real Estate in Los Gatos. "People really do want to act and have the ability to act, but they are paralyzed by uncertainty. We're not missing wealth. We're missing confidence."
The First Republic Prestige Home Index™ is the first statistical model of its kind customized to measure changes in homes valued at more than $1 million in key California urban markets. Some common features of luxury homes in the Index: 3,000 to 6,000 square feet, three to six bedrooms, and three to six bathrooms. San Francisco Bay Area properties include a cross-section of luxury homes in Alamo, Atherton, Belvedere, Danville, Healdsburg, Hillsborough, Lafayette, Los Altos, Los Gatos, Mill Valley, Moraga, Orinda, Palo Alto, Piedmont, Portola Valley, Ross, St. Helena, San Francisco, Saratoga, Sonoma, Tiburon and Woodside. Properties in Los Angeles represent a cross-section of luxury homes in Arcadia, Beverly Hills, Calabasas, La Cañada Flintridge, Encino, Los Angeles, Malibu, Marina del Rey, North Hollywood, Pacific Palisades, Pasadena, Playa del Rey, Santa Monica, Studio City and the West Los Angeles enclaves of Bel Air, Brentwood and Westwood. San Diego properties represent a cross-section of luxury homes in Carlsbad, Coronado, Del Mar, Encinitas, La Jolla, La Mesa, Poway, Rancho Santa Fe, San Diego and Solana Beach. In producing the Index, Fiserv CSW Inc. draws upon its economic database and years of experience in tracking single-family home values; collects and cross-checks data from multiple sources; achieves a weighted balance of validation elements such as repeat sales, comparable sales, and physical home characteristics; and combines this with First Republic's extensive local market knowledge.

From Still Alice to Total Recall: 10 Films Exploring Amnesia
09 September 2015
Amnesia, or memory loss, occurs when a person's brain is no longer able to process and store memories. This September, FACT will premiere Shona Illingworth's Lesions in the Landscape, an exhibition exploring the loss of identity that can come with amnesia. To celebrate the opening of the exhibition, Charlotte Andrews takes a look at some of Hollywood's best portrayals of memory loss on the big screen.

Posters for 'Grave Encounters' and 'Last Circus'
Playing in New York and Los Angeles on August 19 with an August 25 VOD debut to follow comes The Vicious Brothers' Grave Encounters, which now has the following lackluster one sheet. "The cinéma-vérité style supernatural thriller follows a ghost-hunting reality television show host and crew as they shoot an episode inside an abandoned psychiatric hospital, where unexplained phenomena have been reported for years. All in the name of good television, they voluntarily lock themselves inside the building for the night and begin a paranormal investigation, capturing everything on camera. They quickly realize that the building is more than just haunted – it is alive – and it has no intention of ever letting them leave."
Also beyond the break, Magnolia Pictures has released the official poster for Álex de la Iglesia's Spanish-language The Last Circus. Starring Carolina Bang, Santiago Segura, Antonio de la Torre and Fernando Guillen-Cuervo, "In the midst of the Spanish Civil War, "happy" circus clown is interrupted mid-performance and forcibly recruited by a militia. Still in his costume, he is handed a machete and led into battle against National soldiers in this twisted tale of love, revenge, and psychopathic clowns." It opens in limited theaters on August 19.

So Say the Little Monkeys
Lesson 3 of 14
Objective: SWBAT engage in discussion about story details and phonetically write an informational sentence (s).
Big Idea: We will learn about the little monkeys through discussion and produce an informational sentence using phonetic spelling.
Warm Up
Today's story, So say the Little Monkeys is based on a tale told in the Brazilian Rain Forest about little monkeys that like to have fun all day. One way I build interest and front load information about the story I am about to read is by showing a short video about the subject. Here is a short video about baby monkeys playing in a tree. This story is good for holding my students interest and for them to ask questions during our discussion. My ELL students need many opportunities to speak out loud and ask questions. My students love animals and I often call them little monkeys when they hang on the furniture or flop around the classroom. This should be a fun writing activity. The story has a sing, song rhythm when reading it that keeps their interest.
My students are gathered on the carpet for our whole group reading block.
"Good morning. Before I read a story to you I want to show you a video. I am not going to tell you what the story is about. After you watch the video I want you to guess what the book is about. I think you will like it."
"So, what did you think of the little monkeys? They were really cute. So what do you think our book is going to be about? You are right! It is about little monkeys. The title of the book is So Say the Little Monkeys."
Resources (1)
Reading the Story
I really like this story. It has a beat and a rhythm as I read. I teach my students the story parts that are like the chorus to a song. We all say it chorally after each page. This chorus part explains the actions and sounds the monkeys make and is fun to do. I read this several times so they all can learn the chorus.
I stop at the part when it rains really hard.
"Oh my goodness, where are they going to go to stay warm and dry? Do they have houses? Nests? Nooooo, they don't. Let's see what they do."
I stop again just before the end.
"So, the monkeys are saying they should make a house. I think that is a good idea. What do you predict they will do? I made a T-chart that says they will build a house or they will live in the trees. I want you to come up one row at a time and mark what you think the monkeys will do. And then I will read the rest of the story and we will see who predicted correctly."
I have the students come up to put their tally mark on the chart. We count the tally marks.
"Most of the class predicted the monkeys will build a house. Let's see what really happens in the story."
Then I finish the story.
"Oh, they don't make a house. Those are silly monkeys!"

Writing Activity
"The monkeys say and do a lot of things. Let's write down all the things they say and do."
I go page by page showing my class what the monkeys do. This simple action models going back into the text for answers. Which is an important skill for future grades. We write a list using the sentence frame: The monkeys ____________. I will have them help me phonetically sound out the words as I write them.
The monkeys sing.
"Help me sound out monkeys. /m/ /o/ /n/ /k/ /ee/ /s/. now sound out sing. /s/ /ing/."
The monkeys swing.
"Let's sound out swing. /s/ /w/ /ing/. ING is what the ING brothers say."
We phonetically sound out the rest of the sentences.
The monkeys jump.
The monkeys run.
The monkeys screech.
The monkeys shout.
The monkeys slide.
The monkeys creep.
The monkeys sleep.
The monkeys cry.
The monkeys chatter.
I erase the list.
"Today's writing will be one sentence and a drawing. The sentence frame is; The monkeys _______. I use sentence frames to help my students understand the sentence structure. Using a sentence frame makes the writing task easier. I want you to sound out the words. I will come around and help you. You can do this, you are smart. Just say all the sounds in the word and write the letter that makes that sound."
I ask the class paper passers to pass out the writing papers to every seat. I dismiss the seated students one row at a time to go to their tables. I walk around to help with phonetic writing and prompting.
Resources (1)
Wrap Up
When all the students are finished writing we clean up the books and sit on their squares. I call my students to the front of the class one row up at a time to read their work. I find that my ELL students have more confidence in speaking English when they are not alone. I give each student the opportunity to read their sentences and show their drawing. We cheer and applaud after each reading.

MAC's New In The Spotlight Collection Is My Iridescent High Beam Highlight Dream
The Year of the Highlight isn't over.
Let's talk about a serious and potentially sensitive topic: Is your makeup (or lack thereof) affecting how seriously people take you in the workplace?
This 2011 article in The New York Times said yes, it is. In case you missed it, the article is about a survey that took pictures of women wearing varying amounts of makeup and then had participants judge the women based on those pictures. In the end, it was concluded that the women with makeup on (any amount of makeup) were perceived as more competent than the same women with no makeup on.
Yes, it's an old article, but I've been thinking about this topic a lot lately. I feel more reliant on makeup now than I ever did in the past. Maybe it's because I'm struggling with skin problems right now, maybe it's because I've suddenly started to prefer how I look with makeup on, or maybe it's both. Whatever the reason, I no longer go to job interviews without makeup, and I've even started wearing more than just tinted lip balm to work--something that I never used to bother with.
Part of this is probably because I am no longer someone who can feel entirely confident without makeup. I'm not sure how that happened, but there it is. And let's be honest: people don't care if you're not wearing makeup; they care (subconsciously or not) about whether you look good without makeup. I looked good without makeup when I was a tan 16 year old.
Just like the study did, I decided to photograph myself with varying amounts of makeup. After rosacea flare-ups and a bad bout of cystic acne, this is what I look like without makeup now:
OK, I'm kidding with the photo caption up there but seriously, my redness and dark spots make me feel sad sometimes. I'm thinking this might affect my level of confidence, which people pick up on.
Next I did a minimal makeup look with Revlon PhotoReady BB Cream in Light Pale, a swipe of CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara, I also filled in my brows a bit.
My skin tone is evened out, the red spots are less obvious, my eyes look a bit more awake… and my lips are sort of chapped. Oops.
Then I added two more products as seen in the photo above: Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in Fair and Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Honey.
This is why I always try to wear some lip color; I feel like it just adds so much life to my face in the way that other people claim blush does for them.
Next, for a more blatant "I'm wearing makeup!" look, I added Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner along my upper lids and Kate Moss for Rimmel lipstick in Kiss of Life for a statement-making red lip.
I also switched out the BB cream for Clinique Redness Solutions Foundation in Calming Alabaster for full coverage.
How do you feel about wearing red lipstick to work? Personally, I feel like nothing gives me more confidence, and I even like wearing it to job interviews.
I didn't stop there, though. I took it one step further and extended my eyeliner to make a cat eye and switched out the red lipstick for Maybelline ColorSensational Vivids in Brazen Berry, a bright purple.
I did this look because the Times article said that while it's important to wear some makeup to be deemed competent, too much makeup will make you seem less trustworthy.
I'm curious how many of you could confidently wear a makeup look like this to work. I know I could, but right now I work in a fairly relaxed environment. I wouldn't wear it to a job interview--but why not? Is it because I really believe I would be taken less seriously just because I'm wearing purple lipstick?
It seems unfair that we have to walk this tightrope between enough makeup and too much makeup, especially since men don't have to worry about this sort of thing (the only comparison I can think of is facial hair). It's not just makeup that we have to worry about, either: What about nail art or very long nails? What about how you style your hair? I never worry about my pixie cut aside from the odd cowlick, so I'm interested in how much work other women put into making their hair look "professional," whatever that means.
In the end, I thought this quote from Robbie Myers, Editor-in-Chief of Elle, was interesting: "The fashion business takes women who wear no makeup very seriously, which I think is kind of great. If you look at what you'd call the more 'senior' members of the fashion class, they don't wear a ton of makeup. So... do you have to wear makeup to be taken more seriously? No. It's just a matter of what your look is and how you feel about it."
I'm not sure if that may simply be because once you're a senior member of the fashion class, you can do whatever the hell you want, but I do agree with her that it's important to figure out what your look is, however you feel most confident as yourself, and just own it.
I'd like to hear your thoughts on this. I didn't want to write an article that declared "Wear this BB cream every day to get a raise!" or "Stop wearing winged eyeliner to work!" I'm not declaring anything, actually, because I think this is an ongoing, multifaceted discussion.
So tell me: what's your beauty routine is for work? Do you have to quelch your personality at the office, or does anything go? Do you dislike having to wear makeup or does it make you feel more confident? Have you ever thought someone else looked unprofessional or incompetent because of their makeup, or felt you were discriminated against because of how you look? We all know this can go both ways.
And finally, of course, which of my four looks appeared the most competent to you, on a scale of "I don't even trust this person to make copies for me," to "You are Beyonce and deserve to be CEO of this company!"

Jamie Campbell Bower Interview
Jamie Campbell Bower On The Mystery Of Shakespeare.
Page 2 of 2
It's a tragic and juicy story. Do you think there was renewed interest in Shakespeare when the Globe Theatre was restored to its 1500s state?
Jamie Campbell Bower: Particularly for English people, Shakespeare is always at the forefront of both drama and the English language. He's always been there. I can't remember starting school and not learning about him. His works -- or the works that someone produced -- are the finest works in the English language that you can find. Particularly for Canadians and for English he has always been in the forefront. The rebuilding of the Globe has injected new life into people who wouldn't have seen theater. It's cheap to get into, and it's a slice of history.
Which is your favorite play?
JCB: Goodness! I'm a horrible romantic! I like so many of them. Hamlet is obviously a role a lot of actors want to portray or be involved with in some way and that I'd like to be involved in. I also like Much Ado About Nothing, Romeo and Juliet and The Tempest, which some people don't like, but I enjoy it. But it does seem to be a shout out to the upper class.
It's interesting that Shakespeare, or whoever he was, lived so long ago and we are making films about him and still producing his works.
JCB: What makes them so great is that they have stood the test of time and will always stand the test of time. People will relate to the film. This is by no means a damnation or a slamming of Shakespeare's works; it's almost another piece. It seems that way to me.
At the end of this, who do you believe wrote the plays?
JCB: I don't think it really matters what I believe. The works stand by themselves as incredible examples of English literature and language -- whoever wrote them was good. The name William Shakespeare doesn't mean anything to me because I didn't know him. He wasn't a friend and he wasn't a contemporary. I never saw his face apart from sketches and paintings. It's just a body of work.
Your career really shot from a cannon after Sweeney Todd.
JCB: That first job that was so high profile, the only way from then on was to go back down and start building myself back up. Where do you go from working with Tim Burton? I'm still trying to find myself as a performer. I did shows for the BBC and films but I still haven't done theater. Now I'm terrified of theater, which I have to get over because it's where my passions grew and where my heart lives. I see my friends and contemporaries onstage and I think, "I could never f*cking do that!" But I'm working, and that's the main thing. It's not what job or who's going to see it; it's about being able to do good pieces and better yourself.

The hole in Judge Webster's résumé.
" "
—What Securities and Exchange Commission chairman Harvey Pitt told his fellow SEC commissioners prior to their vote approving former FBI and CIA director William Webster as head of their new accounting oversight panel, about certain difficulties arising from Webster's earlier role leading the audit committee of U.S. Technologies.
"The small publicly traded company, U.S. Technologies, is now all but insolvent and it and its chief executive, C. Gregory Earls, are facing suits by investors who say they were defrauded of millions of dollars. The suits contend the misconduct occurred in late 2001 and this year. That was after the three-person audit committee, headed by Mr. Webster, had voted to dismiss the outside auditors in the summer of 2001 after those auditors raised concerns about internal financial controls.
"Mr. Webster … said he told Mr. Pitt and Robert K. Herdman, the agency's chief accountant, about the investor lawsuits before he was approved last Friday.
" 'I told them that people are making accusations,' Mr. Webster said of his conversation with Mr. Pitt before he was appointed last Friday. 'I said if this is a problem, then maybe we shouldn't go forward. I raised it because I didn't want it to become an issue.'
"Mr. Webster said he was assured by Mr. Pitt that the staff of the commission had looked into the issue and that it would not pose a problem. Mr. Pitt had urged Mr. Webster to take the job.
"But U.S. Technologies' former outside accounting firm, other members of the audit committee, company executives, and investors and their lawyers who say they were defrauded say they were never called by anyone at the commission about Mr. Webster's candidacy for the new oversight board."
—Stephen Labaton, "Audit Overseer Cited Problems in Previous Post," in the Oct. 31 New York Times.
"The S.E.C. announced this morning that it had ordered its inspector general to conduct an inquiry after several of its commissioners complained privately that they had not been notified about the conversation Mr. Webster had with Mr. Pitt about U.S. Technologies.
"Mr. Pitt did not tell the other commissioners about a later conversation, either, S.E.C. officials said. Just after his appointment, Mr. Webster said, he learned that a government investigation had begun into the chief executive of the company for possible fraud. Mr. Webster, who left the company's board in July, said he called Mr. Pitt with this news on Monday, but S.E.C. officials said Mr. Pitt did not pass it on.
"The announcement about the inquiry was amended later in the day, exposing the extreme bitterness now enveloping the S.E.C. The agency initially announced that Mr. Pitt had called for the investigation. The announcement was modified after some commissioners complained that they, and not Mr. Pitt, had pressed for the investigation."
—Labaton, "Pitt Under Fire for Not Telling All He Knew About Webster," in the Nov. 1 New York Times
Discussion:Ordinarily, Chatterbox shies away from lies of omission, because the standard seems too subjective. In this instance, though, even the conservative Wall Street Journal editorial page has observed that "you don't have to be an ethicist to think he owed his colleagues the Webster news before they made a highly public and contentious vote. … Mr. Pitt is proving to be an expensive man to defend."
Got a whopper? Send it to email@example.com. To be considered, an entry must be an unambiguously false statement paired with an unambiguous refutation, and both must be derived from some appropriately reliable public source. Preference will be given to newspapers and other documents that Chatterbox can link to online.

Both my Dad and I really enjoyed this experience. The guided tour takes about two hours. While on the underground tour you're allowed to see a classroom where Michigan Tech students studied to learn how to mine!
Saturday morning we decided to head up to Copper Harbor, about 45 minutes north of Houghton! My Dad had never been there before so he was really looking forward to it. Our first stop once we were at Copper Harbor was at the marker located at the northern terminus of US 41. This sign (pictured to the left) shows the route that can be taken from Copper Harbor all the way down to Florida. After leaving the marker, we then decided to head back down to the main area of town and visit some of the shops. Many of the items in the local shops are locally made. The shops are small, but fun to look around in! Much of the stuff is different than anything I would be able to find in Lower Michigan.
Please feel free to email me any questions, comments, or suggestions you may have.
Summer Preparation!
At this time of the summer, I can assume many of you are beginning to get anxious about what all to pack and how to best help your child prepare for Move-In weekend here at Michigan Tech! In about a month, Michigan Tech students will begin the Move-In process to kick off their fall semester. If you are looking for further information about room assignments and hall information, please visit the Housing website to access this! The Housing website offers many great options for you and your students to look over, especially first year students. You can take a photo tour of some of the Resident Halls, gain further information about dining services, living options, and read over some frequently asked questions.
What to/not to pack!?
I would like to start by saying, that I would strongly encourage students to begin the packing process as soon as possible. Taking time to make a list is a great idea, it really helps to make sure you have covered everything and are not leaving anything behind. When thinking about what to pack as a first-year student, it may become a bit hectic. So parents, I would look at some overall categories to help break this down for your students: academic supplies, room items, electronic items, laundry items, personal items, clothing items, and miscellaneous items.
Academic supplies:
Notebook, binders, sticky notes, highlighters, pens, pencils, backpack, stamps/envelopes, stapler and so on. Most of the time students will have a preference to the sorts of things they prefer to use academically.
Room Items:
Bedding-Twin extra long to fit your resident hall mattress , small refrigerator, microwave, cleaning supplies, small, garbage bags, tools, towels , and I would consider lots of storage containers you can never have enough!
Storage containers are a huge help. You can use them to store under your bed, in the bottom of your wardrobe/closet, and as drawer dividers. This will help your student utilize all of their space.
Electronic items:
Computer, possibly a printer (although you have access to printers at computer labs on campus), external hard drive, power strips, calculators, coaxial cable, alarm clock, camera, and a television.
Personal Items:
Medications, shower caddy, first aid kit, and toiletry items.
Clothing Items:
Students should be sure to pack some warm attire! Students are going to want a warm winter coat, boots, hats, and gloves. Laundry rooms are available in each Resident Hall. Washing machines are free to all students and dryers are .25 cents per load. So, be sure your student brings laundry soap, dryer sheets, stain remover, quarters, and a laundry bag.
Miscellaneous Items:
Last but not least, don't forget your miscellaneous items. Students should be sure to bring their social security card, an ID, their health insurance card, batteries, and a snow shovel!
Students will need their SS card and their ID if they would like to work on campus.
Leave at home:
Candles, electric heaters, toaster, and toaster oven/hot plate.
Summer Reading:
In preparation for the college experience, all first-year students are required to read the Summer Reading as Inquiry book. This year's book is, The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. This week post cards were sent out to all first year students providing them with more information on this program. During Orientation week, first year students will sitdown with their Orientation team and one staff or faculty member and have a group discussion over this reading. There will also be a Summer Reading as Inquiry session for parents and family members. The book is great, so I would encourage reading it!
I hope you all are as excited for the fall semester as I am! I cannot wait to see new faces all across campus and to work directly with first-year incoming students! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
-Samantha Allen
Hello everyone!
My name is Samantha Allen and I am pleased to let you know that I will be the new ParentNet writer. This week's article will be an introduction of who I am and what I do here at Michigan Tech! I am very excited to be able to share with you updates and information from the Keweenaw and Michigan Tech.
Before I tell you too much about myself I think it is very important to thank and recognize all the hard work our past writer, Angela Hoffman, put into ParentNet. Angela was the writer for ParentNet for the past year and 9 months! She did such a superb job and brought so many great articles to ParentNet. I wish her the best of luck on her new endeavor as a graduate student. I have a large role to fill after Angela and hope that I will do this well! Best of luck Angela, I am so excited for you and your up and coming career!
Being that this is my first article on ParentNet, I would like to take this week to share with you information on myself so that you can get to know who I am and my involvement here at Michigan Tech. I will be entering into my third year at Michigan Tech majoring in Scientific and Technical Communication with a minor in Diversity Studies. I love being a student here and really enjoy my major. I plan to continue my education further onto graduate school to study Student Affairs after I finish my four years at Michigan Tech. I will be graduating in the spring of 2013. I was born and raised in a small town called Rives Junction which is about 9 hours south located in-between Jackson and Lansing in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan. There are many reasons I chose to attend Michigan Tech. I had always wanted to go to school in the Upper Peninsula, my family and I had always came to the U.P. to camp every year, I loved the campus, the beautiful scenery, my program major, the amazing administration, faculty, and staff. I knew when I came to tour Michigan Tech for the first time that this is just where I belonged and wanted to go to school for my undergrad.
Houghton, Michigan I have to say is very different from my hometown. I did grow up in a countryside environment, although I was pretty close to large towns. Here in Houghton, we are not very close to large towns. One of the greatest differences for me would be the lack of large shopping malls in the area, although I have been able to transition to college life at Michigan Tech very easily. Since becoming a student here I have had so many great opportunities come my way, it really has been a remarkable experience.
On campus I have had an array of work experience as a member of the Student Affairs staff. My first position on campus was working for the Wadsworth Hall Reception Desk as a first year student. I really enjoyed this position. It allowed me to work and meet with many of the students who lived in the resident hall. I was able to get to know a lot of people in this position and gain some true insight of first hand college diversity.
Through the Admissions office, I had been given the opportunity to work as a campus tour guide. In doing this, I work with incoming or perspective students who come to Michigan Tech and take them around campus to teach them about all the things Michigan Tech has to offer. It is a great experience for those who are considering coming to our university because it allows the students to really get a first hand feel and understanding of what Michigan Tech is like and what Michigan Tech has to offer.
When I returned for my second year in college, I worked as an Orientation Team Leader (OTL)! An Orientation Team Leader is responsible for working with our incoming class of first year students and helping lead them for a week through the transition of college. This was an excellent job! I loved having the chance to work with new students and help them in any way I could. I was able to share many of the great experiences I have had as a student here with them.
After working as an Orientation Team Leader, I decided to apply to be on the Orientation Executive Staff (OES). OES is responsible for working year round to plan and organize Orientation, and lead the Orientation Team Leaders in preparation for their week with the incoming first year students. So, for the past school year I have been working as the OES Publications Coordinator and cannot wait for Orientation to begin on August 22, 2011.
Outside of my work experience on campus, I am actively involved in many student organizations. My very first student organization that I joined was Circle K International. Circle K is a service organization dedicated to giving back to the community. Last year, I served as the membership chair working to recruit new members for them. Some of the projects I have done with this organization would include baking for locals, walking animals at the Copper Country Humane Society, and volunteering to help pass out care packages to students.
As a Scientific and Technical Communication student, it is only fit that I am a member of the Society for Technical Communication Student Chapter. This chapter is geared toward supporting and promoting our degree.
One of my most recent student organizations that I have joined would be the Mind Trekkers. I am currently the Vice President of Public Relations and Media for this student organization. Mind Trekkers is a student organization committed to engaging people worldwide in action-packed hands-on learning. This student organization is composed as a road show of short engaging hands on science experiments. Mind Trekkers also perform some events on campus outside of doing traveling road shows.
As for further academic involvement, I have spent a lot of time the past year working and developing my video editing skills. I worked with a small group of students to create a short documentary focusing on the life of a student at Michigan Tech who has cerebral palsy. This short film was placed into Michigan Tech's Northern Lights Film Festival. It really was a great opportunity that Michigan Tech allowed me to have and has helped develop my skills. I am now currently working on comprising the summer reading video for COMPASS to share with first year students about this year's summer reading book, The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls.
Well hopefully now you have been able to have a chance to get to know me a little bit more! If any of you happen to come to campus in the near future you may have the opportunity to see me at work. This summer I am primarily working for the Orientation Executive Staff. I love meeting new people and sharing with others the greatness that Michigan Tech has to offer! I am looking forward to all the upcoming campus activities and events, and can't wait to share them all with you! Throughout my time as the new ParentNet writer please let me know if you have any specific questions or concerns. Please feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com! Until next week :)
I hope you all enjoyed the 4th of July weekend and that you had the opportunity to spend time with family and loved ones. In celebration of Independence Day, there were activities and events going on all weekend long in the Keweenaw Peninsula. Whether you were in search of live music, fireworks, food, or an adventure, the Keweenaw Peninsula had it all. During summertime in the Houghton area, the festivities are truly endless. From one weekend to the next, there is always something to do. This upcoming weekend the 63rd Copper Country Strawberry Festival will be taking place in Chassell, Michigan. The Strawberry Festival is known for its parade, entertainment, and of course, it's delicious strawberries!
Friday, July 8
The Strawberry Festival begins at 9 a.m. on Friday, July 8 with the serving of strawberry shortcake, brats, hot dogs, and ice cream. What a way to start a morning! Starting at 10 a.m. a quilt and craft show will be taking place along the Chassell Bay and will continue into the evening. From 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. there will be horse-drawn wagon rides leaving around the park. The activities on Friday evening continue with a fish boil, a children's parade, the crowning of the Strawberry Festival Queen, and a dance at the local VFW.
Saturday, July 9
Saturday, the day begins bright and early with a scrumptious start. From 6:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. pancakes and sausage will be served at the Chassell Firehall. Starting at 9 a.m. strawberry shortcake will be available. The quilt and craft show will continue on Saturday. The Strawberry Festival Parade will take place at 11 a.m. Also, taking place throughout the afternoon on Saturday is a chicken BBQ, horse-drawn wagon rides, live music, and children's games. From 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. attendees of the Strawberry Festival will have a very special opportunity. The Western Upper Peninsula Center for Science, Mathematics, and Environmental Education will be offering free scientific excursions on Michigan Tech's very own research vessel, the Agassiz. This will be the sixth year that the public will have the opportunity to take a 30 minute excursion on the vessel. In previous years the Agassiz trips were very popular. The vessel can only hold 17 people and there are currently just three departures planned for the Agassiz. It is strongly encouraged that those who are interested arrive early and sign up for a trip upon arrival. The Agassiz is planned to depart from the Strawberry Festival grounds at 1 p.m., 2 p.m., and 3 p.m.
I hope all the Michigan Tech students in the local area make it out to the Strawberry Festival this weekend to enjoy the fun times and the delicious strawberry shortcake.
My Farewell
Parents, I am sad to say that this is my last article as the ParentNet Weekly Article Writer. This weekend I will begin making my way across the country to Salt Lake City, Utah where I will begin my new job as an Assistant Residential Education Coordinator at the University of Utah. In the position I will be supervising student leaders, implementing programs, and maintaining safety in the residence halls. I will also be going to school at the University of Utah to get my masters in Educational Leadership and Policy with an emphasis in Student Affairs. I am very excited for this next step in my life, however, it will be very hard to leave Michigan Tech and the community that I have come to call my home. I am grateful for the opportunity that I have had to serve you as the ParentNet Weekly Article Writer and it is often times the conversations that I have had with you that led me to believe that I need to pursue a career working in higher education. I want to thank you for letting me into your lives, for letting me share my Michigan Tech experiences with you, and for you sharing with me your questions, concerns, triumphs, and successes. It has been such a pleasure to write for you and I could not have asked for better readership! I would like to leave both parents and students with a quote that is meaningful to me.
"If we live good lives, the times are also good. As we are, such are the times." -St. Augustine.
Next weeks article will be coming from our new ParentNet Weekly Article Writer, Samantha Allen. Samantha is a personal friend of mine and I know that she will continue to keep you well informed of campus events, community happenings, and issues that are important to you and your student. Samantha is involved in many aspects of campus life and I am excited for ParentNet Weekly to have the new and fresh perspective that Samantha will bring to the articles she writes. I would like to wish you, your student, and Samantha the best!
Check back for next week's article, in which Samantha will introduce herself to you in her first ParentNet Weekly Article!

Though Ali and Dimpy's dispute happened and quickly got resolved too, but the housemates knew how Ali ahead making nasty comments on Dimpy. Upen reached out to Ali saying he was right at his place but he should be very careful while making statements especially to any lady. Pointing out at his previous comments, Upen said that it is very important to control his temper as much as he could and shouldn't say something which might make him repent later.I have observed other inmates making Ali realize this time and again but pays a deah ear.
In another corner of the house, Puneet and Pritam had a discussion over Ali's behaviour amd also spoke about Dimpy being over friendly with him, questioning that if she doesn't feel comfortable around him she should talk only that much how much is needed. They even objected the fact that she should try teasing someone to a limit if she cannot handle someone's temperament.Well said! "Taali ek haath se nahi bajti".
Let's see if both of them realize their mistakes and avoid such silly disputes!
Watch the story in tonight's episode!

The Kansas City Royals were inaugurated in 1969 and have won two World Series, with their most recent victory taking place over the New York Mets in 2015. The identity of successful Royals teams tends to revolve around pitching and small ball which relies on speed and aggressive baserunning, forcing the opposing team to crack under the pressure. As a result, Kansas City Royals betting lines tend to favour teams able to withstand the pressure of excellent pitching and timely run production.
Kansas City Royals Betting Lines Today
Before wagering on the next game that involves the Kansas City Royals, seek the latest updates in terms of sportsbook odds. We include the lines for both the Royals and their opponents so you can bet on the team you feel will profit you the most.
Kansas City Royals Schedule And Games Result
Throughout the regular season for the Kansas City Royals, we keep updated records of past results, including previous odds listed. You can also peek at their upcoming schedule for other profitable wagering matchups in the future.
Kansas City Royals Standings Conference
The position of the Kansas City Royals in the American League central division will be updated throughout the season. You can also peek at how other teams are faring in the MLB, including squads in the National League.
How To Bet On The Kansas City Royals
There are a variety of different bets that you can place on the Kansas City Royals when you sign up with a sportsbook. In addition to the outcome of single games, you can bet on the outcome of a series during both the regular season and the postseason. Competition tends to heat up in September as baseball fans discover the teams that will be competing to enter into the Fall Classic.
Most reputable sportsbooks arrange moneylines that wagering fans can bet on. For example, if the Kansas City Royals are a -325 favourite when playing the Minnesota Twins as a +300 underdog, you'll need to wager $325 to earn $100 when the Royals win. On the other hand, if you decide to wager on the Twins, you'll win $300 for betting $100 on the underdog, as they're less likely to win the ballgame.
Despite the fact that pitching tends to be the most important factor in determining the winner, some fans of baseball wagering have utilized statistics to determine specific scenarios in which sportsbook offer odds that are better than they should be. Baseball's better dogs betting system is based on this philosophy. In this system, when the favourite has a moneyline greater than +110, you bet on the underdogs as long as they have a better record than the favourite.
Although this system has proven to be profitable when following this logic over an entire season, sports wagering is always unpredictable by nature, which means that any betting system can't guarantee a win. Always perform your own research when deciding which team to bet on.
