LOS ANGELES (AP) — A California judge has rejected a request for a preliminary injunction against Dish Network's ad-skipping digital video recorder in a dispute that has pit broadcasters against a main distributor of their programming.
Judge Dolly Gee of the U.S. District Court in Los Angeles on Monday struck down the request by News Corp. broadcaster Fox, according to a statement from Dish. A Fox spokesman confirmed the ruling but said the network would appeal.
The ruling was not released publically.
Dish Network Corp. and the broadcast networks have been at odds over a new digital video recorder called the Hopper, which allows consumers to record prime-time programming from the four broadcast networks — ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox — and play the video back the next day with the commercials stripped out.
Gee determined that Fox was unlikely to be able to prove that it has suffered irreparable harm from the copies Dish made as a way to back up recordings on consumers' DVRs, Dish said.
Dish's general counsel, R. Stanton Dodge, called the ruling "a victory for common sense and customer choice."
Fox said in a statement said it was "gratified" that the judge found that Dish's copies infringed on its copyright and breached their contract. But it disagreed that making the copies did not cause irreparable harm.
"Dish is marketing and benefitting from an unauthorized (video on demand) service that illegally copies Fox's valuable programming," Fox said in a statement.
The broadcasters argue that automated ad-skipping would deprive them of needed ad revenue, while Dish argues its new device just makes it easier to do what consumers do already on their own DVRs: record shows and skip through ads on playback.

Since Her Maj took the throne in 1953, the world of tech has come a heck of a long way – and not just in in obvious ways like the rise of the Internet and putting a man on the Moon. Join us as we take a stroll down memory lane, looking at some of the finest 50s gadgets and their modern equivalents...
Turntables – Garrard 301 and Rega RP1
The Garrard 301, a classic British-made turntable, was introduced in 1954. Fondly remembered for their design and performance, restored 301s are still prized today by vinyl-spinning audiophiles – some of whom claim it produces better sound than a modern day turntable worth thousands of pounds.
The Rega RP1, launched last year, won't cost you that much – in fact it can be had for around £230 – and our friends at What Hi-Fi? are in love with it. Not only is its modern minimalism a treat for the eyes, it pumps out audio that'll have your ears weeping with joy (now there's an image).
Toys – Matchbox Road Roller and Matchbox Power Shift Construction Truck
1953 was the year in which the first ever Matchbox toy car was launch – except it wasn't a car, it was a road roller. A simple die-cast metal toy from Brit company Lesney, it actually came in a matchbox and sold over a million units.
Matchbox is now owned by toy giant Mattel, and while the products are more advanced there's definitely less charm about them. This construction truck features working lights and sounds – but where is its HEART?
Cameras – Eastman Kodak Brownie Holiday and Fujifilm X10
Kodak's Brownie Holiday camera arrived in 1953, a stripped-down Bakelite-bodied snapper with just a shutter button, a viewfinder and a knob to advance the 127 film. As the name suggests, it was designed to accompany you on holiday, being compact and incredibly simple to use.
The Fujifilm X10 (£530) may be retro in its styling – and in certain touches like the optical viewfinder and manual zoom ring – but it's every inch the modern compact digital camera, delivering fantastic photos and HD video.

Televisions – Philips TX1422 and Philips 50PFL7956T
Another product introduced in the Queen's coronation year, the Philips TX1422 looks like the archetypal old-fashioned television, all beautifully polished wood, a tiny curved screen and Bakelite dials.
Philips is still making tellies 60 years later, albeit a lot larger. The £2,000, 50-inch Philips 50PFL7956T is a 21:9 ultra-widescreen model with 3D, Ambilight and basically more technology than a moon lander. And compare its ultra-narrow frame to the giant wooden box of its predecessor!
Telephone – Belgium Bell and Eclipse
The Belgium Bell was a gorgeous vintage Bakelite telephone with a dial and, yes, an actual bell. You can actually buy restored examples of these charming Brussels-made devices on Etsy and they'll still work – although you can forget about using any touch tone services.
The Eclipse is gorgeous in an entirely different way. The handset and base unit sit together in a continuous elliptical shape, but the design never hampers usability: the handset rocks a crisp display and high quality speakerphone.

A day after announcing the 44th annual God and Country Day celebration on July Fourth was canceled, the Ocala Jaycees said it's back on.
OCALA — A day after announcing the 44th annual God and Country Day celebration on the Fourth of July was canceled, the Ocala Jaycees said it's back on.
Club President George Edwards confirmed Wednesday afternoon that insurance has been secured, and the annual Independence Day festivities are once again a go.
The day's activities begin about 1 p.m. on July 4 and run through a fireworks display at sunset. As in recent years, the celebration will be held near Golden Ocala at the intersection of U.S. 27 and County Road 225A.
"We're very excited and grateful," Edwards said. But, he added, the Jaycees still need volunteers to help with the event.
On Tuesday, the Jaycees announced they had to cancel the annual event because they could not secure insurance for the fireworks show. While club members were disappointed, the news caused near anguish around Marion County for much of Wednesday.
One woman wrote on Facebook that her first date with her husband was at the first God and Country Day 43 years ago. Others complained bitterly.
Among those disappointed was Michael Peters, former owner of the Ocala Raceway. He was one of several people in Ocala who contacted the Star-Banner on Wednesday with the possibility of an underwriter willing to insure the event.
"I'm a veteran, and some holidays like Memorial Day and Independence Day are kind of special to me," Peters said. "Plus, it's a big deal for kids and families."
So, he said, he got on the phone, called friends and "some insurance companies I'm aware of to see what they could do." Peters said he has "seven years of experience presenting special events, including fireworks."
At least one of the insurers he contacted said yes, and the commitment documents were on his desk by late afternoon.
To help defray the cost, Peters said he donated $1,000; also donating similar amounts were Ride Now Motor Sports and Wells Fargo Bank, he said.
"This is a nice event for Ocala," he added. "It needs to stick around."
Edwards asked that anyone willing to offer some time to help that day to email him at email@example.com.

Pets May Be Hazardous To Your Gadgets
By William Harless
American pets damage about 8 million electronic devices each year, according to a new survey. Among the most frequent victims: remarkably chewable cellphones.
San Francisco-based insurer SquareTrade Inc., which sells protection plans for iPhones, iPads, computers and other electronics, sponsored the survey of 1,200 Americans conducted by Survey Sampling International.
It's another reason why Fido can be a financial drain. By SquareTrade's estimate, Americans have spent a total $3 billion repairing or replacing electronics devices their pets have damaged.
Nearly one in five cat and dog owners have had a device damaged by a pet, and people whose pets sleep in their beds or ride on their laps in the cars are two to three times more likely to have a device damaged by an animal, the survey found.
Dogs are twice as likely as cats to damage electronics, according to the study, and male pets are 50 percent more likely than female pets to cause trouble.
Repeat victims include dog lovers like Leah Beatty, a communications manager for Indianapolis tech firm SmartFile. A few years ago, she bought a Samsung flip phone. It didn't last long.
"I left my cellphone on the table and then went to the kitchen to grab something from the fridge, and I came back, and I noticed my cell phone was gone," Beatty says.
The culprit was her dog Whiskey. "She shredded it to pieces," she says.
But Beatty had yet to learn her lesson. "The next day, I did the same thing, left my phone on the table, and she grabbed it, chewed it up, and I had to go to the Sprint store a second time," she says.
The story doesn't end there. A week later, Whiskey, a black lab-chow mix, grabbed Beatty's third Samsung from the couch when the phone was vibrating and chewed it up, too.
As smartphones and tablets have become more common, so have reports to insurers complaining about the damage pets do to them.
"We've noticed that we're getting a lot of calls or claims from people with broken devices because their pet broke it," said Ty Shay, SquareTrade's chief marketing officer. That's what inspired the company to do the survey, he says.
Sandy Robins, a pet safety expert and author of "For the Love of Cats" who was briefed by SquareTrade on its study, said she believes pets usually chew on cell phones because they're bored.
"We need to keep them physically and mentally alert and engaged," Robins said. "That's why it's so important to leave your pets with toys when they're home alone. … When they're bored, they look for trouble. They're no different from kids."
She added: "Your cell phone, your iPad, has your scent on it, so they realize it's something to do with you."
Beatty, whose dog chewed up three of her phones, says she still laughs about the incident. At the time, though, she says, "I was so mad."

Puzzles and brainteasers are great for helping young brains develop and grow. They teach problem solving skills, hand-eye coordination, sorting, pattern recognition and more! The best part? There are so many different types of puzzles and images on puzzles that they are certain to entertain as much as they educate. While puzzles will help develop reading, math and logic skills – they also provide a feeling of accomplishment and achievement when the puzzle is solved – which is why kid's love to do them over and over – and might just give them a confidence boost too!
Putting together jigsaw puzzles and other types of puzzle brainteasers can also be a great family or group play activity, along with individual play. But how do you pick a good puzzle for your youngster? Here are few tips from an article in a Young Children periodical.
1. Small knobs for toddlers. Knobs or chunky puzzles help small fingers with coordination and strengthen the grips used for writing. These are the first puzzle children 2-3 year's old will enjoy putting together over and over.
2. Children like puzzles of things they know, animals, shapes, story scenes and bright colors.
3. Well designed, sturdy pieces that will withstand some wear and tear are a must. Wooden puzzles from Melissa and Doug, for example, make great starter puzzles for younger puzzlers.
4. When they get bored – it just means they need a step up in challenge – find a puzzle with more pieces, without frames, knobs or trays, or with new topics like letters, numbers or anatomy.
Here are 11 Great Kid's Puzzles and Games for Brain Development

Ford F-150
Lightning Rod Concept
(from Ford Press Release) CHICAGO,
February 4, 2001 - The Ford F-150 Lightning Rod strikes at the 2001
Chicago Auto Show. Its hard-core, tattooed appearance is inspired by the
resurgence of rock-and-roll and the current fascination with body art.
The Lightning Rod is an F-150 pick-up truck - the number-one-selling
full-size pick-up for the past 23 years - which has been lowered and
stretched. The roof has been chopped one-inch, the overhangs have been
shortened, and the exterior body panels have been cleaned up and
finished in a cherry red metallic paint giving the Lightning Rod a
sleek, hot-rod, performance look.
"Lightning Rod draws from the passion of the muscle cars of the 1960's,
the hot rod industry and the current body art craze to take America's
best selling pick-up to a new level of performance excitement," said Ed
Golden, Executive Director of North American Ford Brand Design. "It's
just another example of how our versatile truck line-up can be
personally customized to take on any kind of lifestyle."
The conventional headlamps and taillamps have been replaced with twin
horizontal neon tubes. A deeply recessed custom aluminum grille features
horizontal bars and is reminiscent of the popular muscle cars of the
1960s. The prominent powerdome on the hood hints at the possibility of
enhanced powertrain performance.
A faster windscreen and hidden windshield wipers are in line with the
clean, uncluttered exterior look. Lightning Rod features a stainless
steel, dual straight-pipe exhaust system that exits from underneath a
rollpan at the rear of the vehicle.
The leather-wrapped tonneau cover features a tattoo that is die cut into
the leather with black cow hair in the cutout portions that was inspired
by the Maori, the Polynesian people of New Zealand. In moko, a type of
Maori tattooing, shallow colored grooves in complex curvilinear designs
were produced on the face by striking a miniature bone adze into the
skin. Tattooed designs are thought by various peoples to provide magical
protection against sickness or misfortune, or they serve to identify the
wearer's rank, status or membership in a group.
"In Maori culture, an elegantly tattooed face was a great source of
pride to a warrior, for it made him fierce in battle," said Golden. "The
F-150 has a great history and has consistently been the leader among
full-size pick-ups - it is certainly fierce in battle."
Lightning Rod's strong wheel arches house custom Goodyear - 295/40 R20
tires in the front and 305/40 R20 tires in the rear - which carry the
Maori tattoo theme to the treads. The rear tires are slightly bigger,
supporting the hot rod feel of the pick-up. The five-spoke
custom-designed 20-inch cast aluminum wheels are a medium gray, satin
The cherry red exterior color is carried through to the interior. The
leather-wrapped dashboard features an exposed, natural aluminum color
instrument panel that houses only the bare essential instruments. The
three-spoke milled aluminum steering wheel is partially wrapped in red
The Maori tattoo theme is carried through to the leather-wrapped bucket
seats and headliner. The die cut pattern is filled in with the same
black cow hair as the tonneau cover.
Lighting Rod is powered by a supercharged 5.4L SOHC Triton™ V-8 that
produces 380 hp at 4750 rpm, and 450 lb.-ft. of torque at 3000 rpm.
With more than 50 years of development and product expertise behind it,
the Ford F-150 is trusted for its strength, durability and flexibility -
yet continuously innovating and bringing new ideas to the market. With
multiple engine, drivetrain, cab style and pickup box variations,
customers can create a virtually unique truck tailored to their work or
leisure requirements. The latest innovation top grow from the Ford
F-150, is the all-new four-door SuperCrew, which offers SUV-like
passenger room combined with pickup truck utility.

The late, great comedian, George Carlin is widely regarded as one of the most brilliant and insightful comics of all time. One of his signature bits was a comparison of football and baseball.
"Baseball is played on a diamond in a park. The baseball park. Football is played on a gridiron in a stadium, sometimes called Soldier Field or War Memorial Stadium."
"In football, you wear a helmet, in baseball you wear a cap."
"In football, the object is for the quarterback, also known as the field general to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his receivers with deadly accuracy, despite the blitz, even if he has to use shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line. In baseball, the object is to go home and to be safe! I hope I'll be safe at home!"
The reason I quote Carlin is because I am looking forward to the Monday Night Football Game between the Patriots and the Jets (My Yankees of football. I hate them just as much!) In baseball, if the Sox and Yankees are getting ready for a series, usually all the quotes are politically correct. Maybe every once in a great while, someone will say something that would be considered "bulletin board" material, but not usually. Terry Francona and Joe Girardi (and Joe Torre before him) all act with a great deal of decorum. So polite, in fact, they all might be invited to Prince Williams' impending nuptials (If not Prince William, maybe Prince Fielder).
Rex Ryan, the brash, oafish head coach of the Jets is the perfect villain. He may as well be wearing a top hat, while twirling his mustache and plotting to tie Giselle Bundschen to the railroad tracks. Hate Rex and the Jets with a white hot passion that I usually reserve for Jeter and the Yankees. I am, however, tremendously amused by his quote concerning Coach Belichick and the Monday Night matchup. Ryan told the Boston Globe- "As much as I respect and admire Bill Belichick, I came here to kick his a**, and that's the truth." As much as he rubs me the wrong way, that's cool. No mincing words. No "coach-speak". No misinterpretation. Rex Ryan was refreshingly candid. Maybe you can only speak this way in football. I don't know. I've never heard a baseball manager say anything like that. Guys like Francona and Girardi usually try to diffuse the situation. Old Rex is pouring gasoline on the fire. Other shots may be fired across the deck before the game. That is to be expected. I really hate to admit it, but I respect Ryan for telling the truth. He reminds you of a college frat brother, who is always mouthing off.
"Dean Wormer" famously told "Flounder" in the movie Classic "Animal House" that "Fat, drunk and stupid was no way to through life ." I don't know if Ryan drinks at all, and I really don't think he's stupid. He has rekindled the rivalry between the Pats and Jets.
You know I LOVE baseball. But you have to admit, George Carlin knew what he was talking about.

Rose-tinted revisionism: Islamic supremacism was not imposed on Egyptians; it was chosen by Egyptians.
By Andrew C. McCarthy:
My great respect for Amir Taheri notwithstanding, his hopes for democratic transformation of the Middle East cause him, yet again, to misinterpret the most recent developments in Egypt.
There, the initial draft of a new constitution is about to be published, the product of a committee overseen by the military, which has run Egypt's government since Mohamed Morsi's ouster. The new constitution will reportedly preserve sharia (Islam's societal framework) as the country's main source of law. It will also codify the "special status" of the armed forces as protectors of the state vested with supreme power in matters of national defense, foreign relations, and economic affairs — possibly including, the Washington Post reports, the discretion to try civilians (such as Muslim Brotherhood operatives) in military courts.
In a recent New York Post column, Taheri argues that the new constitution will thus be an insidious pact between the generals and the "Salafists" — Muslim supremacists who, like their Brotherhood political rivals, are determined to create a caliphate beholden to Islam's repressive principles. It will betray hopes for real democracy that are shared, Taheri insists, by the vast majority of Egyptians.
Adopting the conveniently pliable passive voice, Taheri writes (the italics are mine):
The coup that returned the military to power after a year-long interval was presented as an attempt to prevent the Muslim Brotherhood from imposing an Islamist dictatorship with a constitutional facade. Highlighted were two articles in the Morsi constitution that identified the Islamic sharia as the source of legislation in Egypt and gave Al-Azhar, the official seminary, a virtual veto on certain issues.
The crowds that for weeks filled Tahrir Square called on the army to intervene to save the nation from a burgeoning sharia-based dictatorship. Well, when the new draft constitution — written by a 50-man committee appointed by the military — is published, the Tahrir Square crowds are likely to be disappointed. The two controversial articles will still be there, albeit under different numbers and with slight changes in terminology.
This is rose-tinted revisionism. Yes, the coup "was presented" by democracy romantics as a rejection of Islamic totalitarianism. But that did not make it one. Egypt is a big, complex country, and there was no single rationale for Morsi's ouster, which was supported by some important Salafist factions — groups that could not be more opposed to Western liberalism. The impetus for removing Morsi that came closest to a societal consensus was not the desire for real democracy; it was — as our colleague David Goldman has observed — that Egypt is an economic basket-case that Morsi and the Brothers were steering toward failed-state status.

Pre-Gamin': Cubs v. Rockies (8:40 CT) – Lineup, Broadcast Info, etc.
I suppose I've rested on today's financial piece long enough.
Tonight's game – another night game, how about that? – sees Carlos Villanueva, probably the inside favorite for the temporary fifth starter's job when the season opens, take on the Rockies at Salt River Fields. I'm not sure if you'll be able to tell on TV, but it's the nicest facility in Arizona, outside of Cubs Park.
Speaking of which: TV. This game is on it. It's on MLB Network, and MLB.tv for those of you who use it.
As for tonight's lineup, it does not feature Mike Olt at third base, which was the hope. But apparently the Cubs are saying Olt will play third tomorrow, so there's no real additional concern here. Just would have liked to have seen him tonight is all. At least tomorrow's game is also televised.
It's a lineup of regulars tonight (which is to say starters and backups). I guess they've got to play sometimes, too.

The Tudor-Style Home
Tudor-style homes are staples of residential developments throughout the United States. They're so popular, in fact, that we often lose sight of their historical roots. It's time for a refresher course.
If you grew up in an American suburb, you're probably familiar with the Tudor architectural style, typified by homes with a stucco exterior accented with dark brown trim and topped with a steeply pitched gabled roof. What you may not know, however, is that, charming as they are, those 20th-century homes are simply "mock" Tudors, or Tudor Revivals, inspired by timber-framed cottages built 400 to 500 years earlier, during the reign of the Tudor dynasty in England.
Related: Living Like Shakespeare: A Tudor Tutorial
While the gentry of that post-medieval period built impressive brick or stone manor homes replete with hundreds of casement windows and ornate chimney stacks, the commoners developed a more modest architectural style. Back then, an ordinary village home or farmhouse was first framed entirely of timber. The builder would then insert woven sticks known as wattle between the timbers. Using daub (a mixture of clay, sand, and dung), he would infill the spaces around the wattle and seal the wall. Once the wall was dry, the daub was often painted white with limewash and the structural timbers were sealed with tar to protect them from rot. This building technique, known as half-timber, created the familiar brown-and-white exteriors we associate with Tudor-style homes today. In a variation on this construction method, the more well-to-do commoners often integrated sections of brick between timbers and added windows made up of small panes of glass held together by metal or wood.
By the 16th century, fireplaces with chimneys became commonplace in ordinary homes, and the interiors consequently became more complex. Rather than relying on one large room with a central fire pit for heat and cooking, Tudor homes could now have multiple rooms that served different purposes, each with its own fireplace as a heat source. Often, large fireplaces included inglenooks where people could sit to keep warm. And now that smoke could be channeled out through chimneys rather than up through a hole in the roof, these structures could include second stories, and with them staircases made of hand-hewn timbers. These upper-story rooms—usually bed chambers—generally had ceilings with exposed beams.
Other architectural details that were integrated into Tudor homes included depressed arches—flattened arches with a slight central point—in doorways and on mantels; elaborate masonry chimneys on rooftops; steeply pitched roofs of thatch or tile; and jetties. A jetty is formed when the second floor extends beyond the dimensions of the first, creating an overhang. This feature enjoyed particular popularity in cities where the first-floor footprint was limited by the street outside.
At the turn of the 20th century, Americans embraced the Tudor style, building new homes that blended some of the old-world design elements with modern home-building techniques. Cousins of the Stick-style house, Tudor Revivals eschewed authentic half-timber construction and often featured brick or stone walls on the first story, and upper floors that were stud-framed and covered with a veneer of stucco and decorative faux timbers. Cross gables were commonly included in the plans, as were typically Tudor features like steep rooflines and gabled windows with leaded-glass mullions. The traditional thatched roof, however, was replaced by slate. Interiors incorporated such Tudor-style elements as decorative beamed ceilings, arched doorways, plaster walls, and detailed wooden staircases.
REMODELER'S NOTES: Tudor Revivals continue to be a popular architectural choice today, especially for homeowners seeking an historic aesthetic. They can, however, be expensive to maintain due to some of their most compelling elements, namely slate roofs, plaster walls, and highly inefficient leaded-glass windows. Advances in building techniques and materials have led some homeowners to turn to synthetic wood and stucco substitutes when updating a half-timber structure, and to replace the interior plaster walls with drywall.

PORTSMOUTH -- Northeast Credit Union and Woodlands Credit Union announced that the merger between the two credit unions has received all necessary member and regulatory approval. Woodlands Credit Union members approved the merger via mail-in balloting as well as in person voting during a special meeting held in Berlin on October 27. The membership vote was the final step in the approval process.
The merger will be effective on January 1, 2013, with the combining of operating systems set for late summer 2013. Once complete, this union will offer expanded banking products and services, greater convenience, and a stronger financial cooperative for the credit union's membership.
The ongoing credit union will operate as Northeast Credit Union and its headquarters will remain at the current location in Portsmouth. Peter Kavalauskas, Northeast Credit Union's current President/CEO, will lead the credit union with Timothy Collia, current CEO of Woodlands Credit Union, serving as the Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer.
As information about the integration process becomes available, it will be posted on the Northeast Credit Union website at www.necu.org. Members will also be kept informed through a series of mailings and notifications throughout the spring and summer as integration activities progress.
"We're very excited to receive this final approval from Woodlands Credit Union members and sincerely welcome them to the Northeast family," stated Peter Kavalauskas, President/CEO of Northeast Credit Union. "By combining the strengths of both credit unions, we are able to provide all of our members with improved product lines, financial planning services, insurance offerings, expanded technology services, and greater financial stability."
With the merger, Northeast Credit Union will have assets exceeding $800 million and serve over 90,000 members through 14 branches, soon to be 15, in locations ranging from New Hampshire's Great North Woods, the Seacoast, Dartmouth region and the Merrimack Valley.
NECU currently has over $725 million in assets and serves over 74,000 members at branches in Portsmouth, Exeter, Dover, Rochester, Manchester, Concord, Lee, Northwood, and the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. For more information visit www.necu.org or call 888.436.1847.
Woodlands Credit Union (www.woodlandscu.com) was founded in 1956 to serve the financial needs of employees in the paper industry. With over $112 million in assets, Woodlands Credit Union offers and promotes a variety of affordable financial services to over 16,000 members in New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont. It has office locations in Berlin, Gorham, Conway, Plymouth, and Lebanon, NH.

The movie industry is a results-oriented business heavily influenced by momentum. With a few surprise hits and the buzz that always accompanies success, actors and actress can suddenly find themselves fielding offers for the most hyped upcoming projects and demanding truly ridiculous salaries. Barring death, arrest or in certain eras, exposed communist tendencies, the A-lister will remain at the top of the heap for as long as he or she produces quality projects and gets box office support from the general public.
Unfortunately, just as with athletics, there is a serious downside to being in an industry so obsessed with stat sheets. When the ball starts rolling downhill, it can be extremely difficult to stop. In just a year or two, Hollywood's biggest names can go from naming their salaries and determining their futures to playing supporting roles like concerned wife and goofy co-worker in bigger budget movies or leading roles in indies hardly anyone will ever see. That's why it's of the utmost importance for actors and actresses to stem negative tides by putting themselves in positions to succeed with other talented people, even if it means taking a few swings in gritty, exciting supporting roles to remind everyone how talented they are. Take Alec Baldwin. He may have flamed out as a leading man, but through repeatedly making wise choices, he's become beloved, rich and respected by his peers.
With a little bad luck and a few bad choices, losing streaks can and will happen to anyone. Even Tom Hanks hit a dry spell in the early 90s (Joe vs The Volcano and Bonfire Of The Vanities back to back), but he willed himself out of it with the help of A League Of Their Own. That's what all of the men and women on this list need: their own A League Of Their Own. They need some success, some momentum in the right direction. In short, they need to remind everyone why we liked them so much in the first place.
Here are some of Hollywood's best and brightest who really, really need a hit.
Uma ThurmanThanks to her iconic role in Pulp Fiction, a handful of very well received performances and her high profile former relationships with Ethan Hawke and Gary Oldman, Uma Thurman is still very much a famous actress. Unfortunately, she hasn't been the leading lady in anything that could be considered a hit since Kill Bill Volume 2 all the way back in 2004. Even worse, she hasn't really contributed anything to any films any of us actually enjoy in the time since, apart from the mediocre remake of The Producers, the forgettable Super Ex-Girlfriend, a bit part in The Lightning Thief and a pretty good five episode arc on the infuriating since cancelled musical series Smash. If you take those away, we're down to leads in films like Playing For Keeps, Motherhood, Ceremony, Bel Ami and various TV movies.
Uma is more than capable of contributing a major role to a likeable film with a big budget, but she's really not particularly good at carrying comedic weight or being the woman the audience is meant to relate to. She should focus her efforts on picking up a supporting part that allows her to steal a few scenes as an intimidating and eccentric woman no one can take their eyes off of.

Golf terminology is rife with double meanings. In golf, an "eagle" is not the emblem of the United States of America, but rather a score of 2 under par on a hole. An "apron" is not a garment worn over your clothing to keep you clean in the kitchen, but rather the closely cut area just around the edge of the green. "Face" is not what you see when you look in the mirror, but is the part of the clubhead that makes contact with the ball. And a "threesome" and "foursome" is not an exciting sexual encounter with multiple people, but the term used for a group of three and four players. Recently, the term "golf singles" has entered the lexicon as meaning a group of single golf enthusiasts, and golfmates.com is their clubhouse.

Ever wonder what single golfers do on a date?

And, unless your date is on the green, golf dating attire isn't limited to soft spiked shoes and pastel colored polo shirts. Don't be surprised if your date shows up wearing stilettoes and a black dress!
At golfmates.com, singles fill out personality profiles that can include information from their musical tastes to their drink of choice at the nineteenth hole. Where members can list their favorite golf courses across the globe, and the ones they aspire to travel to once they meet their ideal mate.

I'm a political junkie. For months, I've been catching up on all the latest about the presidential race.
Our newspaper has received many letters endorsing either Barack Obama or Mitt Romney. Some local residents even have posted presidential campaign signs.
But that won't have any effect on the race's outcome. Illinois is not a swing state; it's decidedly in the Democratic column, with its electoral votes going to Obama. A Republican hasn't won the Land of Lincoln since 1988.
Romney has no hope of prevailing here, just as Obama has no chance in Texas.
Rest assured, though, voters in the 17th Congressional District, which includes Whiteside County, have a mini-Obama-Romney race. Rep. Bobby Schilling, R-Colona, generally agrees with Romney, while Cheri Bustos, D-East Moline, is aligned with Obama.
Lee County, which is in the 16th Congressional District, doesn't have a real race. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Manteno, is far ahead. He has raised nearly $2 million, much more than the $34,000 raised by his Democratic opponent, Wanda Rohl, D-Ottawa.
The Democrats aren't putting up a fight in that district, which was designed for Republicans.
So you don't see much about that race. At the same time, Schilling, Bustos and their allies are blanketing our airwaves.
If you happen to catch a radio or TV ad for Romney or Obama, you're probably tuned into an Iowa or Wisconsin station. Those are actual battlegrounds.

I had only known Eline Muijres for a few minutes before our first dance, and it wasn't long before I became scared our movements were going to lead to more physical contact than is likely appropriate for near-strangers.
So I let go of her iPhone.
Muijres is a producer on "Bounden," a mobile game that aims to teach players ballet — or maybe just inspire them to get closer, awkwardly. Either result is a win.
Most dance games, such as the popular "Dance Central" or "Just Dance" franchises, have players moving in front of the TV, working off a sweat solo or goofing off at a party. "Bounden" is far more intimate. And potentially more revealing.
Developed by Netherlands-based three-person studio Game Oven in conjunction with the Dutch National Ballet, "Bounden's" challenge — the difficulty of being in sync with another human being — transcends simple movement.
"Bounden" is one of a small smattering of games released over the last year or two that seeks to use technology to have players engage in a physical space, an approach to gaming that has essentially become a mission statement for Game Oven. Like "Johann Sebastian Joust," "Spin the Bottle: Bumpie's Party" and "Spaceteam" before it, "Bounden" is the latest in a series of independent games where the action between two people is often more involved than what is transpiring on the screen.
The goal of "Bounden," essentially, is to keep a small orb displayed on the screen centered, and doing so requires the sort of interactions our text-ready smartphone devices supposedly limit: eye contact and verbal communications. Or, to be precise, it requires that you dance.
Our movements — well, my movements — certainly weren't graceful. Muijres attempted a twirl, but I was more or less a human brick, putting an abrupt end to any whirls at a spin. Was it OK, I wondered, if our elbows bumped? Or should I make an effort to avoid entangling our arms?
It wasn't the anxiety-inducing levels of my first high school dance, but there were definitely nerves. Yet as the game went on, and the dance continued, "Bounden" replaced my apprehension with excitement. I was, after all, dancing — dancing! — and dancing with a stranger even. Kind of.
Playing "Bounden," Muijres and I may not have been holding hands, but our bodies were connected via a single phone between us. Our right thumbs pressed down on the screen, which sought to guide our steps and occasionally bring us closer together. Our footwork certainly wasn't ballet-grade, but each stride, dip and turn eased the tension and hinted at the skeleton of a more complex work of choreography crafted by the Dutch National Ballet.
"We really like to make games that are about interaction — games that close the distance between people and make people suddenly aware of themselves," said the 24-year-old Muijres, one of the co-founders of Game Oven. "Sometimes that can be very awkward for people, but it can also be really fun."
Video games have forever toed the line between spectatorship and participation. The player is in control, but it's a power with limits. When charging up the typical console, PC or mobile game, our actions may dictate what happens in a digital world, but we are still bound by the rules of the coded universe and our gaze is locked on a monitor.
"When I'm playing 'Dance Central,' even if I'm playing with others, I'm so focused on the screen," Muijres said. "We're dancing next to each other but not dancing with each other. There's not an interaction going on."
The Wii U's "Spin the Bottle: Bumpie's Party" is solely about player-to-player communication. "Bumpie's Party" emphasizes the Wii U's controllers, namely the console's tablet-like GamePad. Sometimes players will get close, being asked, for instance, by cutesy animated creatures to squeeze the buttons on a controller using only their nose. All that separates faces from touching is a video game peripheral.
"Spaceteam," on the other hand, takes one of the more aggressive aspects of video games — interstellar combat — but relies on vocal commands rather than arcade violence. Necessitating two phones and relying on face-to-face cooperation, "Spaceteam" has players shouting nonsense orders at each other (example: "Soak Ferrous Holospectrum!") as they try to prevent a disaster.
It starts out simple, perhaps even relaxed, but the pace quickens rapidly. Every time I've played, the following thoughts have raced through my head: "Is it acceptable for me to be yelling at this person?" "Will having screamed 'Turn T-booster' at someone I barely know forever mark our relationship?"
When he was in Los Angeles late last year, "Spaceteam" creator Henry Smith, a veteran of top game companies such as BioWare and Irrational Games, credited "Johann Sebastian Joust" as forever changing his approach to game-making.
"Joust" is the modern granddaddy of competitive cooperative games, having shown up for a number of years at game festivals and events before being released this spring for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 as part of the "Sportsfriends" compilation.
It will require at minimum two PlayStation 4 controllers, but is best with four players. The Douglas Wilson-designed game is a dance, as players will move in time with music, all while attempting to keep their controller as steady as possible. A player is knocked out when a controller is jostled.
I've played with those who are more outgoing when it comes to pushing and shoving their way to a win, but also with those who move more diminutively, trying to coerce someone into a mistake.
"Joust," said Smith, "blew my mind about what can be done with this technology and how we should be making games."
"Bounden" is the party game at its most disruptive. The game knowingly enters a personal space many of us all but close off to anyone other than a significant other. That it does so with grace, under the guise of ballet, is its secret weapon.
Past Game Oven titles have poked and prodded personal space as well. "Fingle" is an iPad game that will have players hands contorted in a Twister-like fashion, and "Friendstrap" is a free iPhone game in which the winner simply has to hold onto the phone the longest. All the game encourages is potentially invasive conversations.
Muijres and her partners in Game Oven — designer Adriaan de Jongh and technical developer Bojan Endrovski — happened on this style of play by accident, becoming fascinated a few years ago by watching players recoil when they accidentally touched each other while using a tablet.
A thesis for a company was born.
"When people would touch each other they would retract their hands, like, 'Oh, sorry! Sorry!'" Muijres said. "Why is it so awkward to touch each other's hands? That's weird, right? It's OK to touch."
"Bounden," developed for a budget of about $100,000, for which Game Oven has not yet broken even, guides players for $3.99 through the basics of twirling and then leads players through five original dances. Mastery of the dances isn't easy.
Play it on a date, Muijres said, before adding that the team at Game Oven may or may not get a kick out of watching the romantically linked attempt to dance. That interest is purely anthropological, of course, as it turns out that rudimentary ballet may offer a telling relationship status update.
"You can tell a little bit about someone's personality," Muijres said. "It's fun to watch couples. 'No, we have to move this way!' 'You're doing it all wrong!' Then some couples just say OK and wrap their arms around each other and start dancing.
"To many people," she added, "dance is freedom."

Since coming back to work I keep trying to explain to my older daughter (shown in the photo) that I'm not choosing work over her. I can't seem to get it right. No matter how I frame it, it sounds just like that – like I am away from her for 50 hours a week because I choose to be. Then I realized, it sounds like that because I am choosing to be away from her. So, what the heck am I doing here? I'm not working because I love it more than my two girls. I can't really say it's because of the money; with some big changes we could live on one salary. So, what is it? What it is, is complicated.
My challenge is to carve out time for a career I love (I'm the new editor of parenting.com!) while still making family first, a feat I'm not even sure is possible. What's your challenge? What decisions have you made? What sacrifices or compromises? Or were there none because today is a time where women get to make decisions and yours were clear?
Tell us, in 500 words or less, what it's like to be a parent today. Can moms and dads really have it all? Your essay could win $1,200 and appear in the magazine. Two runners-up will win $200 and appear on parenting.com.

CARSON, Calif. (Friday, December 3, 2010) – The LA Galaxy announced today that the club has not offered to renew the contract options on midfielders Jovan Kirovski and Dema Kovalenko ahead of next week's MLS Re-Entry Draft. Both players are now eligible for the Stage 1 Draft of the Re-Entry Process, which will be held via teleconference on Wednesday, December 8 at 11 a.m. (PT), though they may elect to opt out.
The Stage 2 Draft will take place on Wednesday, December 15 at 11 a.m. (PT), also via teleconference. Both Stage 1 and Stage 2 Drafts will be conducted in the same order as the traditional Waiver Draft, with Vancouver selecting 17th and Portland selecting 18th. The Galaxy will have the 14th selection in both Stages of the Re-Entry Process.
Kirovski is in his second stint with the Galaxy, having originally played for the club from 2004-2005. He re-joined the club in November 2008 and appeared in 43 regular season games over the last two seasons, scoring six goals and adding three assists. A native of Escondido, Calif., the 34-year-old midfielder finished third on the Galaxy this season with four goals, two of which came in the 4-1 win over the Houston Dynamo on June 5. His first goal on that day was scored just 47 seconds into the game, making it the third fastest goal in club history.
Kovalenko has been with the Galaxy for two years, joining the club in a trade with Real Salt Lake in January 2009. He appeared in 26 regular season games for the club in that time, scoring once and adding a pair of assists. He scored the first goal of his Galaxy career this season, tallying the eventual game-winning goal in the 3-1 win over Columbus on September 11. Despite missing significant time over the past two seasons with injury, the 33-year-old midfielder started six of the Galaxy's seven postseason games in 2009 and 2010.
Per Major
League Soccer rules, in the Re-Entry Process, each club may either select a
player from the eligible player list, or pass. Once a team has passed, they may
no longer participate in that stage of the Re-Entry Process. Each stage will
continue until all 18 clubs have passed on the available players.
Clubs must exercise the option for, or extend a Bona Fide Offer to, players selected in Stage 1. Players that were out of contract may either accept or reject the Bona Fide Offer. Should a player reject the offer, the drafting club will hold the right of first refusal for that player in MLS. Players with option years left on their contract will automatically be added to the drafting club's roster.
Any player selected in Stage 1 will remain on the drafting Club's 2011 budget at the option price or Bona Fide Offer price until April 1, 2011. Clubs and players may not mutually renegotiate that price to a lower number until April 1, 2011. Clubs may not select their own players in Stage 1. Players will have the opportunity to negotiate contracts and sign with their previous clubs after Stage 1 is complete until 11 a.m. (PT) on Monday, December 13.
In Stage 2, clubs may select from players that are under contract and those not under contract. If a player is not under contract, the drafting club will be required to make a genuine offer to the player within seven days. In the event that an agreement cannot be reached between the drafting club and an out-of-contract player, the drafting club will hold the right of first refusal for that player in MLS. Clubs may select their own players in Stage 2 only after all other clubs have declined to select those players.
If a player is not selected in either stage of the Re-Entry Process, that player will be available on a first come first serve basis to all clubs. For more information on the Re-Entry Process, click here.

Drivers and cyclists should respect each other, especially when they are in rallies.
Your front-page article on bike accidents was, to me, slanted toward auto drivers being at fault. I drive on State Road A1A on a regular basis, and cyclists need to be aware not to ride side-by-side or three abreast. A1A is a two-lane road where I am, and I see cyclists riding side by side, talking to each other and not paying attention, and cars coming in the other direction at the same time.
Drivers and cyclists should respect each other, especially when they are in rallies. The road does not belong to either.

I have been watching and reading the many reactions and comments concerning the sadness we all suffered in Connecticut. As I have grandchildren the same ages as those young souls, it has been especially heart-rending for me.
People are railing against the National Rifle Association, while others "dig in" to protect our right to bear arms. Still more worry about the cost of deploying police officers to our schools. But during this discussion, it becomes clear that there may be a solution that is acceptable to all.
Let's let our country's grandfathers and grandmothers protect our schools. I would be more than willing to stand guard one day a week (or more) with a radio that could bring a police officer to the school in minutes if I spotted something not right. While one person guarded the front door, another could be deployed as a walk-around person (also radio-equipped) to detect anyone approaching the school other than from the front of the building.
We would offer this service for free, of course.
How about a home guard for our most precious of treasures? It would be at no cost, act as a sure deterrent and give us a purpose that is far greater than a round of golf.

To address the controversy about the National Rifle Association's solution of protecting schoolchildren in schools across America by hiring deputies to patrol school grounds, I have another solution!
Most school boards do not have funds to hire deputies. And most NRA members have had proper training in handling guns — plus they own the latest guns and assault weapons, and are American patriots. Thus, I suggest the NRA leadership assign at least two NRA members per school to patrol every school in America on a voluntary basis, during the entire school day. If the number of volunteers is greater, each two NRA members could patrol only one 8-hour school day once a week.
Finally, the NRA members could do something positive with their time, and probably save the lives of many schoolchildren as well.
What a patriotic group of Americans! Who will carry on with this idea?
Thanks to the Kiwanis Club for bringing Johnny Peers and the Muttville Comix to Palm Coast on Jan. 11! This delightful show was filled with laughter from people of all ages, as he put these once unwanted dogs in the spotlight. It was obvious, from the joy in their faces, their devotion to this man and their love of performing for an audience. They were an example of what love can do.
A big "thank you" also goes to Johnny Peers, for seeing the potential in the unwanted. May we all look into our own lives and see where we can make a difference. My family and I hope he returns for many years to come.

text: Tell us your story Everyone loves a firefighter. Especially a homegrown one. Meet Paul Corah. Born at Legacy Emanuel, he is a 30-year veteran of the Portland Fire and Rescue Bureau. Paul believes that the safety and wellness of our community is of the highest priority ... and so do we. For years he worked at the station next to Legacy Emanuel. "We took many folks to the Emanuel," Paul says. "We had a very close relationship with the hospital, especially Emanuel's burn center." Moreover, Paul is part of a clan of siblings who each serve in roles that are central to the community. Paul has three sisters: Joan, a nurse for 30 years at Emanuel; Mary Ellen, a postal carrier; and Valerie, a teacher. "We were taught from a very early age to give back to community," said Paul. Guess what? All four were born at Legacy Emanuel. Born there. Trained there. Works there. Born at Legacy Emanuel, Leslie Root, M.D., also trained at Legacy Emanuel and now works on the medical center's campus. "My mom felt like there was where you went to have babies," says Dr. Root, whose three siblings were also born at Legacy Emanuel. "She had the same nurse for each delivery." A primary care physician whose clinic is in the medical office building at Legacy Emanuel, Dr. Root went through Legacy Emanuel's program for training physicians. After completing her training, she looked all over the metro area for a practice that fit her style. Guess where she found one? At Emanuel. "I liked this group," Dr. Root says, who has been with Cascade Physicians for 14 years. "It's a good, old-fashioned practice where the doctors want to be involved in their patient's care." A life-changing adventure. An incredible recovery. When a boulder cascading down Mt. Adams struck Jamie Hunter and knocked her 80 down feet down the mountain, it took a heroic rescue and amazing medical support to keep her alive. After 70 surgeries in 82 days at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center, Jamie emerged healthy, thankful and with a sense of purpose.Nine years later, she is following her dream of helping people with disabilities enjoy outdoor activities. Two weeks on life support. 32 surgeries. One amazing tale. As with many people in late 2009, Tom Trautman came down with a case of H1NI "swine" flu. Unlike most others, though, Tom's illness grew worse. Much worse. A few days before Christmas, Tom, a father of five who lives in Camas, Washington, went into a coma and in intensive care. "Everything was shutting down, all my organs," Tom explains. Andy Michaels, M.D., a surgeon at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center, gave Tom a 10 percent chance to survive. The H1N1 virus inflames the lungs, making it difficult for some people to breathe. The staff at Legacy Emanuel placed Tom on a machine called ECMO (for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation). It is a treatment that brings oxygen to the blood outside the patient's body, allowing the lungs to rest and heal. Legacy Emanuel has one of the most complete programs in Oregon and used ECMO on 15 H1N1 patients, likely more than any hospital in the country. On the 13th day of his hospitalization, was removed from ECMO after he came out of his coma. "I'll never forget it," says his wife, Becky. "I walked into the room and … he opened his eyes. I started bawling." A picture of stability. For 55 years. In a world where things come and go, Judy Pahl, R.N., stands firm. Judy has worked as a night nursing supervisor at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center for 55 years. Judy started her training at Emanuel in 1957, when the polio vaccine was a major medical advancement. Today, transoral robotic surgery, virtual 3D pain relief and ECMO are just a few of our everyday offerings. Judy is just one reminder of Legacy Emanuel's dedication to our our community.

As the rate of incarceration has escalated in America, there has been a corresponding increase in violence against women, Sociology Professor Susan Sered writes in the article "Sex, race and prison's violent double standard: Incarcerating men hurts women, too" on Salon.com.
"Large-scale prison release is imperative if we wish to rebuild a democratic society. But while we are opening prison doors we need to institute policies that prevent the violence of prison culture from spilling over into communities," she writes.
Sered, whose research interests include women's health, criminalized women and culture and who has conducted a five-year study of homeless women in Boston, gets to the root of the problem when she quotes a woman whose partner had been released from prison:
"I believe that there is a level of violence and anger in any person, that anger can be increased … depending on … how much time was given for the crime, and the level of violence that the individual has to deal with in the correctional facility. … Some men have the ability to take traumatizing experiences and utilize it to teach others about the violence, homosexuality and verbal abuse from state officials and correctional officers they have to deal with on an everyday basis … [But] this type is atypical … In my opinion men who are typical … have displayed behaviors of cheating, lying, stealing, manipulation of women and people who don't know any better … Males only have so much patience before snapping and reliving what they view as an attack on them."
Sered relates an all-too-common "Catch-22" for released inmates and their families:
"Nearly all (housing subsidies for low-income households) go to female-headed households. Because laws exclude individuals holding criminal records from eligibility for public and subsidized housing, people released from prison … often find that they are dependent upon women for a roof over their heads. However, the same housing laws allow … law-abiding citizens to be evicted if a former prisoner or someone who commits a crime is caught staying in their house. … Women …risk losing not only their housing but also their welfare and food stamps or even custody of their children when a man – even the child's father in some cases– is "caught" living in "her" apartment. Yet a low-income man who has to pay his own rent may not be able to pay child support. And failure to pay child support, in turn, can be used by the courts as a reason to send a parent to jail."

A mother sadly reported to her bishop that her three sons had left home and joined the navy. Why they had done this, in view of other opportunities for employment, further schooling, missions, or even another branch of the service, was very perplexing to this loving mother. The bishop tried to comfort her by explaining the need young people have to "break away" from home—but he, too, found their action unusual and difficult to explain.
Then the bishop decided to visit the family home. As he entered the living room, his eye was immediately drawn to the large painting of a ship under full sail. It was the only piece of art in the room.
"There is your reason," he told the mother. "As your sons have grown up, you have told them every day through this painting of the romance and adventure of the sea. You have taught them well. No wonder they all joined the navy."
The message of this true story is obvious. Our home environment—specifically, visual images in the home—has an impact on our lives.
This idea poses a number of questions for us as Latter-day Saints. Do we fully realize the influence of visual images in the home? What kind of images should be in a Mormon home? Can visual images help explain what we believe? Can our surroundings help us become more spiritual? Is it possible to develop more meaningful feelings about our heritage if we have visual materials of our ancestry available?
The answers to such questions can be positive, and exciting challenges confront us in this aspect of "homemaking." The following may be useful.
Visual Images with Religious Subject Matter
Latter-day Saint homes in the past have seemed to infrequently utilize "religious" paintings or prints. Perhaps this was due to our members recoiling from the adoration of some religious paintings by members of other faiths. But it stands to reason that if, for example, a beautiful print of Christ were in a home, thoughts would be turned to him more often. There is no reason to feel that any religious images on display are being worshiped.
Another part of this lack of religious art in the home relates to the unavailability of fine prints and paintings. Very few contemporary works are appropriate for use, and access to acceptable and sensitive historical works is equally difficult. Fortunately, quality "Mormon" oriented art is becoming more available.
Visual Images that Recall Our Heritage
Many homes maintain a valuable tie with the past by displaying heirlooms or antiques handed down through the generations. These objects, along with photographs, can become a meaningful and enjoyable part of the home's flavor. Objects from the setting of a parent's early life can help children better understand their family. Objects from foreign countries help establish cultural ties to the homelands of ancestors. Old family photographs enlarged to poster size can be fun and attractive in almost any room. In addition, picture pedigrees can be valuable in building a child's understanding of his ancestry. These ties with the past help give stability and feelings of gratitude toward our forebears.
Images that Build Feelings about the Family
Family "galleries" of photographs, artwork, and other visual objects can do much to develop attitudes of family unity. Good times can be recalled while warm feelings about the family can be reinforced.
Hallways, stairways, and both formal and informal wall areas can be used for collections of family memorabilia. Enlarged photographs can be framed inexpensively and used in many ways. Photos of houses where the family has lived, of favorite vacations, of annual family gatherings, or of special friends can help strengthen positive feelings about the family.
Family Projects
Individual family members usually have special interests or hobbies that result in a variety of collections (plants, unique toys, models, trophies, books, antiques, etc.). Collections can add much to a home when they are used in general family areas—not just stored away in the confines of an individual's room.
Most homes would be more interesting to visitors and more livable for family members if some of the "standard" ways of decorating were replaced by individual expression through the use of objects of genuine interest. What is less interesting than a room transplanted from a furniture showroom? On the other hand, what is more stimulating than a home where the interests and activities of those who live there are openly expressed?
Use of Fine Art
Nonreligious fine art—drawings, paintings, prints, crafts, and sculpture—can enrich our lives, and there is no reason why this enrichment should take place only in the art museum. Whether the works are originals or they are fine quality prints, we stand to benefit from placing them in the home. Great artists help us "see" and respond more sensitively to the visual world around us.
Robert Frost observed that "home is the place, where, when you go there, they have to take you in." A Latter-day Saint home should be, instead, the place each of us longs to be. Our relationships, one with another, determine the basic happiness of a family, but the physical environment—including visual images—can greatly reinforce our love of home and add new dimension to our family experiences.

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – Heavy rainfall in the Região Serrana in Rio de Janeiro state forced some 300 residents to leave their homes in Nova Friburgo, which was devastated by flooding and landslides at the same time last year. More floods hit the region yesterday after 135mm (over 5.25 inches) of rain fell in 24 hours – more than half the average forecast rainfall for the whole of January, meteorologists said.
Warning sirens were activated in a number of districts inundated by the downpours in the mountainous outlying regions of Rio state, and a number were still on high state of alert as night fell on Monday.
The region's inhabitants know all too well how prone the area is to flash flooding and mudslides – in January 2011 floods took at least 903 lives, mainly in Nova Friburgo and Teresópolis.
The Civil Defense are continuing to monitor the situation from specialized stations. Late on Monday night the city lifted the state of alert and moved to the state of attention, after the reduction of rainfall.
The rainfall also caused chaos for travelers flying from Rio's Santos Dumont airport, with flights delayed or canceled. The airport was forced to close for short periods during Monday.
There have been four deaths attributed to heavy downpours in the neighboring state Minas Gerais since October 2011.

Cut, Glue & Sand Veneer
Part 2: Simple and inexpensive tools are the core of a successful veneering job.
By Marc Adams

For nearly 30 years I have worked with veneer as one of my principal materials in all my furniture pieces. What I enjoy the most about working with veneer is that it's a form of "silent" woodworking. It can be done without the running of loud machinery. It offers more design opportunities, is forgiving and offers a great way to embellish any type of project. I love the challenge of cutting, arranging and pressing veneer. Even today there is a thrill of taking a finished panel out of the press to see the results.
The darker side of veneer is taking that finished panel out of the press and finding that it has some kind of failure, especially after all that effort.
Working with veneer involves skill – not talent. Anyone can do it. The process involves cutting veneer, arranging it, taping, choosing the proper glue and core, pressing, removing the tape, sanding and preparing it for finish. Each step is a process of its own that will make the next step easier and more successful.
