Sam Houston State University: Faculty Member Takes Box Cutter to Students' Free Speech Wall; Police Threaten Students with Misdemeanor
September 23, 2011
On September 22, 2011, the student groups SHSU Lovers of Liberty, Bearkat Democrats, Young Democratic Socialists, and College Republicans sponsored the display of a "free speech wall," on which students were invited to write any message they wanted. When SHSU Professor Joe E. Kirk saw that someone had written "FUCK OBAMA" on the wall, he demanded that the student organizers cover up the message. When they refused, Kirk returned with a box cutter and cut out the word "FUCK." On the advice of an SHSU administrator, the student groups contacted SHSU's University Police Department to report Kirk's vandalism. After SHSU […]» Read More

Vigorous intellectual explorations by students may sometimes result in questioning of popular conceptions, and this in turn, may elicit the concern of society at large. One of the axioms upon which our nation was built, however, is that truth needs no protection, but is vital by vigorous debate in a market place where all ideas can be presented and then tested by the reason of free people.

State University Promising to "Evaluate" Student's Tweet Critical of Murdered Police Officer
September 6, 2015
By Eugene Volokh at The Washington Post The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education has the story. Some excerpts: The [Sam Houston State University] controversy was touched off by a tweet from student Monica Foy criticizing the response to the shooting death of Harris County sheriff's deputy Darren Goforth on August 28. Foy's tweet, posted yesterday morning, read, "I can't believe so many people care about a dead cop and NO ONE has thought to ask what he did to deserve it. He had creepy perv eyes …" … Given the freshness of Goforth's death and its brutal nature, it's […]» Read More

September 2, 2015
By Blake Neff at The Daily Caller A student at a Texas college is facing ridicule and possible criminal prosecution after she tweeted out that murdered Texas police officer Darren Goforth may have deserved to die because of his "creepy perv eyes." Goforth was ambushed and killed Friday at a Houston gas station, sparking outrage across the country. On Tuesday, Sam Houston State University (SHSU) student Monica Foy posted a tweet saying the outrage over Goforth's death might be premature. Foy's comment quickly went viral and attracted a great deal of negative attention. She soon deleted the tweet, and by Wednesday both […]» Read More
[VIDEO] Police and Professor Censor Anti-Obama Remarks on University's Free Speech Wall
October 2, 2012
Forget the First Amendment. Forget Freedom of Speech. Forget going through all the proper channels to express your rights as an American. In an explosive new video, FIRE, an individual rights organization exposes how one university managed to stifle the Constitutional rights of its students. Last year, students at Sam Houston State University erected a "free speech wall" in which any student could write anything he or she wanted upon that wall as an expression of their first amendment rights. But as soon as an anti—Obama remark was written, a professor, with the help of the campus police, managed to have it censored because […]» Read More
University ditches controversial social media rules
December 13, 2011
Sam Houston State University's social media policy that drew heated criticism from a national free-speech organization and student groups has been nixed by campus officials. Administrators on the 17,000-student public campus in Huntsville, Texas, said they would scrap the Social Media Policy and Procedure Manual that was protested by disparate campus political groups, opting instead to create a new set of rules from scratch. The school's policy stipulated that any student group that uses the university's name or abbreviation must join the official SHSU social media universe or change their name.

Controversial social media rules spark student backlash
October 2, 2011
SHSU student groups might have to change their names in accordance with new school policy. Sam Houston State University's controversial social media policy is perhaps the only thing that could unite the campus's College Republicans, College Democrats, and the Young Democratic Socialists: The groups have joined together to protest rules that could affect their presence of Twitter and Facebook. SHSU, a 17,000-student public campus in Huntsville, Texas, rolled out a new policy for university-related social media this semester, creating a "social media universe" that student groups can join on popular social sites where students communicate and announcements are made and […]» Read More
Censored Obama insult: Prof. slashes Free Speech on Texas campus with box cutter
September 25, 2011
Since 9/11, box cutters have had a bad name. In 9/11, it was life that was at risk, now at Sam Houston University (SHSU) in Texas, it is liberty, Freedom of Speech, that has been literally slashed away – by a box cutter in the hand of a professor. September 24, according to the Houstonian, the Foundation for Individual Rights for Students (FIRE) is now involved and has sent a letter to Sam Houston State University, expressing their "deepest concern" regarding the decision "to censor students' expression on a "free speech wall" on campus".

The box-cutter wielding professor and SHSU University Police Department are the targets of a letter sent to University President Dana Gibson by a national civil rights group. The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) tells Gibson the group is "deeply concerned" by the actions taken by both the professor and the UPD at the "Free Speech Wall" protest on Sept. 22.

The 'Free Speech Wall,' elected as a form of protest against SHSU's new social media policy, was taken down after a confrontation between a professor and student event organizers resulted in a section of the sign being cut out, according to police and event officials. A math professor, whose name has not been confirmed, complained to event organizers that sections of the sign reading "Fuck Obama," and other such terms, were offensive and needed to be removed. Officials said after a verbal confrontation, the professor returned with a box-cutter and removed the section himself. University police were then called and collected […]» Read More

Update: Citing First Amendment, SHSU Won't Punish Student for Tweet
September 8, 2015
Sam Houston State University says it will not take action against a student whose controversial tweet stirred internet outrage, including calls for the school to punish her, because the tweet is protected by the First Amendment. SHSU President Dana Hoyt said student Monica Foy's now-deleted tweet questioning what slain Texas deputy Darren Goforth did to deserve his death was "insensitive and inflammatory"—and also not a crime.

Sam Houston State University Caves to Internet Mob, Promises to Investigate Student for Tweet

You might remember that at the end of last year, FIRE President and CEO Greg Lukianoff dubbed 2014 "The Year of the Heckler." There's still a ways to go with 2015, but recent events are making a compelling case to dub it "The Year of the Tattler." We recently publicized, for instance, that Texas Christian University (TCU) suspended student Harry Vincent for postings Vincent made on Facebook and Twitter after a non-student living in Maryland complained to TCU about their content and rounded up an Internet posse to call for Vincent's punishment.

Student at IU Attempts to Censor Fellow Students by Vandalizing Pro-Life Display
October 1, 2013
FIRE often exposes how colleges censor students—but last week, it was a student at Indiana University who decided to engage in some vigilante censorship by vandalizing a pro-life display. According to a student account, new student organization Students for Life at IU intended to have a peaceful demonstration on campus as part of an organized protest dubbed the "Planned Parenthood Project." The trouble reportedly began when a student approached the demonstration, removed wooden crosses meant to represent the number of abortions performed daily by Planned Parenthood from the ground, and threw them into a trash can.

School's Censorship Policy Doesn't Fly
October 5, 2012

"And the students were understandably very upset about that."Sam Houston State University students initiated the free-speech wall to protest the school's policy that demands access to the students' private social […]» Read More

Hopefully you don't need us to give you more reasons to watch FIRE's newest video about the shocking censorship last year at Sam Houston State University, where a professor used a box cutter to remove profanity from a student-sponsored "free speech wall."

New FIRE Video: College Professor Censors Anti-Obama Comment on Free Speech Wall
October 1, 2012
Last year, college censorship took a turn for the ridiculous when a professor at Sam Houston State University vandalized a student-sponsored "free speech wall" with a box-cutting knife to remove anti-President Obama speech he didn't like. When the students complained about the vandalism to the campus police, the police took the professor's side and demanded still more censorship, leading students to dismantle the wall. Morgan Freeman, the student who organized the protest, recounts this amazing and disturbing story in FIRE's latest video. (Warning: strong language.)» Read More
'Problem': Offensive speech. 'Solution': Censorship and vandalism?
October 1, 2012
by Robert Shibley The Daily Caller Because of the uproar over the YouTube video that was said to have led to uprisings against American interests in the Muslim world — including the death of our ambassador to Libya and three others — Americans are being confronted with a couple of unfortunate facts. First, while Americans generally tolerate all manner of offensive or annoying speech under the First Amendment, those in foreign lands often don't have much tolerance for free speech. Second, while Americans at large widely scorn the idea that we should implement censorship in this country because some […]» Read More
Thomas Jefferson Center Awards "Muzzles" to Censors at Catawba Valley, Sam Houston State

Every year since 1992, the good folks at the Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression award their annual "Jefferson Muzzles" to recognize those across the nation "who in the preceding year committed some of the more egregious or ridiculous affronts to the First Amendment right of free speech." And just about every year, a Muzzle or two ends up being awarded to someone on a college campus. Surprised? Neither are we! This year, two schools earned well-deserved Muzzles by stifling student speech in shocking ways. Torch readers will remember that FIRE intervened in both cases. First, the […]» Read More

Last week, eCampusNews drew attention to the news of Sam Houston State University's (SHSU's) decision to ditch its proposed social media policy. The policy, which would have required any student group bearing the SHSU name to join the university's "social media universe," was the subject of controversy and student protest. Under the proposed rule, those student groups choosing not to comply would have been required to change their groups' names. The policy would also have required student groups to hand over their emails and passwords, and allowed administrators to edit student group pages. The abandonment of the policy is due […]» Read More
Sam Houston State University Throws Out Controversial Social Media Policy
November 17, 2011
Last month, FIRE announced via a national press release that a professor at Sam Houston State University (SHSU) had used a box cutter to cut an insult against President Obama out of a "free speech wall" promoted by four student organizations across the political spectrum. The free speech wall had been erected (with permission from SHSU) in order to protest a proposed new social media policy. But when the students called the campus police after the professor's act of censorship (and vandalism), an officer demanded that the students censor the wall or else face criminal charges for having offended the professor.

The website eCampus News has reported on the dual controversies swirling around Sam Houston State University (SHSU): the university's deeply restrictive proposed social media policy and its outrageous censorship of a student "free speech wall." The site's Dennis Carter writes: The student backlash to the new policies culminated Sept. 22 when the disparate campus political groups sponsored a "free speech wall" and invited students to write anything they wanted on the wall – a protest against what students and free speech advocates have called a trampling of constitutional rights. "The social media policy is in theory optional, but if it means […]» Read More
Professor Takes Box Cutter to Students' Free Speech Wall at Sam Houston State University; Police Threaten Students with Charges over Profanity about President Obama

HOUSTON, Oct. 6, 2011—Two weeks ago, a professor at Sam Houston State University (SHSU) used a box cutter to cut an insult against President Obama out of a "free speech wall" promoted by four student organizations. When campus police arrived, an officer demanded that the students censor the wall or else face criminal charges for having offended the professor.

Speech Code of the Month: Sam Houston State University
October 3, 2011
FIRE announces its Speech Code of the Month for October 2011: Sam Houston State University in Texas. Sam Houston State University's (SHSU's) Code of Student Conduct [.pdf] prohibits, as disorderly conduct, the use of "abusive, indecent, profane or vulgar language." While a policy like this may seem at first blush to prohibit only low-value speech, FIRE's current case at SHSU demonstrates that even core political expression is threatened by such a ban. As an initial matter, it is important to understand that profanity and vulgarity are entitled to constitutional protection. In Cohen v. California, 403 U.S. 15 (1971), the U.S. Supreme […]» Read More

The past few days have brought public scrutiny to bear on Sam Houston State University (SHSU) after its police department not only failed to address student complaints over a professor's vandalism—with a box cutter—of their "free speech wall," but also threatened to charge the students with disorderly conduct on the basis of four-letter words written on the wall. Late in the day on September 23, while readers nationwide were learning of the case in outlets such as The Daily Caller, SHSU President Dana Gibson sent a brief response to FIRE's letter.

FIRE has been quick to act on a ridiculous free speech case at Sam Houston State University (SHSU), where a professor took it upon himself to vandalize student speech on a "free speech wall" with no less than a box cutter. As Adam wrote earlier, we have already sent a letter to SHSU President Dana L. Gibson, informing President Gibson that the professor's act-cutting out a section of the free speech wall where students had written "FUCK OBAMA," due to his apparent disagreement with that message-betrays the freedom of speech to which SHSU students are entitled at the public university.

Professor Cuts Out Insult to Obama on Students' 'Free Speech Wall' with Box Cutter; Police Threaten Students with Misdemeanor for Public Profanity
September 23, 2011
Sometimes here at FIRE we think we've seen it all. Yesterday, however, we were shocked by the outrageous violations of free speech at Sam Houston State University (SHSU). To protest a controversial new social media policy, four SHSU student groups organized a "free speech wall," a large field of paper with a wooden frame, upon which students could write the message of their choice. Someone wrote "FUCK OBAMA" on one section of the wall, and other students replied in kind: "FUCK BUSH" followed, as well as other comments. But what happened next is what's so outrageous.

A play about the annual CTA holiday train will arrive at a Lakeview theater in November.
"El Stories: Holiday Train," based on real-life Chicagoans' experiences with the annual tradition of decking out a CTA train in Christmas decorations, will debut Nov. 24 at the Greenhouse Theater, 2257 N. Lincoln Ave.
The show will run at 11 p.m., on Saturday nights. Tickets are $15 at greenhousetheater.com.
Meanwhile, the CTA said last week it has not yet found a sponsor for the holiday train. The agency has inked deals with businesses to sponsor other longtime traditions including penny rides on New Year's Eve and free rides for students when the school year starts.
Still, the CTA said it expects to debut the holiday train in November.
"What would Chicago be without a holiday train?," CTA spokeswoman Tammy Chase told Going Public.

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — A once-prominent New Jersey defense attorney whose clients included entertainers and rap stars was convicted Monday of operating a racketeering enterprise that included the murder of a witness and engaged in prostitution, drugs, and witness tampering.
A federal jury deliberated for a full day and parts of two others before coming back with guilty verdicts on all 23 counts against Paul Bergrin, a pugnacious former federal prosecutor who once represented an Army reservist charged in the Abu Ghraib prison scandal in Iraq, celebrities Queen Latifah and Lil' Kim, and the group Naughty By Nature.
Three of the counts, including two related to the murder of a federal witness in 2004, carry a mandatory life sentence.
Bergrin, who represented himself during the trial, didn't say anything after the verdict was read. Lawrence Lustberg, an attorney who has been advising Bergrin through this trial and a previous one that ended in a hung jury, said afterward that his client would file an appeal. Lustberg called the verdict surprising.
"We thought the jury would take much longer given the number and complexity of the charges," he said. "We're concerned that all the nuances of the evidence weren't considered."
U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman, who worked briefly alongside Bergrin when both were assistant U.S. attorneys in New Jersey, said the verdict reflected a "stunning fall from grace."
"I take no joy from this verdict," Fishman said. "But his conduct over many years was a betrayal of his law enforcement colleagues and of the court."
One of the alleged murder plots was hatched in 2004, when Bergrin was representing a client in a drug case, prosecutors said. A potential witness, Kemo Deshawn McCray, was gunned down on a Newark street. Bergrin was alleged to have told his client's confederates, "No Kemo, no case."
Another plot allegedly involved a drug case in Monmouth County in 2008. In that one, Bergrin was recorded allegedly telling an informant posing as a hit man to "make it look like a robbery."
Bergrin has been in jail since his arrest in 2009 along with several other defendants, including another attorney. All have pleaded guilty, and several testified against him over the course of two trials.
A key turning point in the nearly 4-year-old prosecution came last June when the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia took the rare step of removing the judge from Bergrin's first trial from the case, citing questions raised by prosecutors over his impartiality.
U.S. District Judge William J. Martini initially threw out the racketeering counts, but they were reinstated on appeal. He also severed two murder counts from the original indictment, and excluded some evidence from the first trial. That trial ended in a hung jury in the fall of 2011.
For the recent trial, U.S. District Judge Dennis Cavanaugh allowed the government to try Bergrin on all counts he faced, except several tax fraud charges that will be considered separately.
"This time the jury got to evaluate the full measure of all the conduct with which Bergrin was charged," Fishman said.

NHIAA Roundup: Valliere's goal lifts Trinity
January 31. 2013 11:16PM
Kyle Valliere split the defense and scored the game-winning goal in the third period as Trinity of Manchester tripped Pinkerton Academy of Derry 2-1 in a Division I boys' ice hockey contest at the Sullivan Arena on the campus of St. Anselm College Thursday. Trinity improved to 7-3-1 while Pinkerton fell to 6-5-0.
Tyler Tambouris scored Trinity's first goal in the first period. Paul Wiley and Justin Sirois each assisted on the play. The Astros tied the game at the 10:59 mark of the third period on a goal from Ethan Landry. But Mitch Myers and Drew Merrick set-up the winning goal as Valliere beat Pinkerton goalie Nate Mitchell (30 saves) with 2:37 to play. Trinity goalie Ryan Slatky (22 saves) stopped two breakaways.
Exeter 5, Hanover 2: Andrew Stevens, Mike Cashman and Henrik Barbin each had a goal and an assist to lead Exeter past visiting Hanover, 5-2, in boys' hockey on Thursday.
Barbin's goal with 2:11 left in the second period put Exeter (3-8) up for good, 3-2. "The goal late in the second really boosted their confidence," said Hanover coach Dick Dodds.
Sam Carey scored 14 seconds into the game to give Hanover a 1-0 lead. Connor Ronan tied it before Sean Cavallaro put Hanover (5-5-2) up again at the start of the second period. Stevens answered with a goal to tie the game at 2-2.
Hollis/Brookline 6, Kearsarge 5 (Wednesday): Ian Rowe scored a hat trick and finished with four points for the 6-6 Cavaliers in Andover. Tim Birch, Cam Ricard and Kyle Stephens each had one goal in the win. Hollis/Brookline goalie Travis Howard made 22 stops in net. Kearsarge (3-8) never led, but got one first period goal from Tristan Rowe and second period tallies from Ryan Beattie and Matt Pickman.
Down 6-3 in the third period, the Cougars closed the gap to 6-5 behind two goals from Pickman, the last one coming with three minutes left for his hat trick.

It's all out in the open in this very funny comedy
In 1985, playwright Neil Simon revised his original The Odd Couple for the ladies and called it The (Female) Odd Couple. It's essentially the same storyline as the original 1968 comedy, but instead of two divorced fellows, there are two divorcees, Olive Madison, a slob and savings-and-loan to her ex-husband; and Florence Unger, a neat-freak whose husband wants a divorce. Plus a cadre of female buddies who gather at Olive's to play Trivial Pursuit — as well as the Costazuela brothers — who replace the Pigeon sisters.
The play — and Twin Beach Players' version — makes a study of how to bring the shadow side of human nature — those things that we repress — to light: through laughter and lot of one-line truth-shooting zingers.
In comedy, timing is everything, and the Twin Beach cast — almost all veterans — have very good timing. Director Sid Curl and assistant director Brianna Workcuff cast actors made for each roles.
If you've ever attended a women-only (or guys-only) gathering, you'll find art resembling life here. The ladies at Olive's apartment — the earthy cop Mickey (Philomena Gorenflo), the saucy Latina Renee (Vivian Petersen), the droll Vera (Merle Blair) and the sharp-tongued Sylvie (Eva Miller) — trade all manner of jabs. When Phil, the ex-husband, calls Olive (Jeanne Louise) to ask for money, her friends place bets on the amount she'll write the check for.
Missing from the scene is Florence (Angela Sunstone). When her soon-to-be-ex, Sydney, calls Olive to report Florence missing, the ladies worry.
That's now. To catch up the story, Olive is thinking about finding a roommate when Florence opportunely shows up seeking a place to stay. There is life pre-Florence and post-Florence. Life post-Florence might be too generous an expression.
Their shadow boxing intensifies when the Costazuela brothers visit. The Costazuelas — Manolo (Keith Mervine) and Jesus (Michael Padgett) — almost steal the show. They heighten exchanges between Olive and Florence because they are their mirror opposites, Manolo being the slob and Jesus the neat-freak.
With all the banter, distinguishing cast members beyond Olive and Florence could be difficult. But Simon's script and Curl's direction make it easy.
Set changes also offer challenges. Everything's out in the open — as in the play — requiring complicated scene changes. This crew succeeds.
This play would make Carl Jung, father of analytical psychology, proud. The rest of us should be prepared to undo the belt a couple of laugh notches.
Producer: Regan Cashman. Stage Manager and Props: Brianna Workcuff. Set and Lighting Design: Sid Curl. Costumes: Dawn Dennison. Lighting Operator: Anna Gorenflo. Sound Operator: Camden Raines. Tech Crew: Ana Collins, Regan Hall, Danielle Langford, Katherine Willham.
Playing thru April 15 at 8pm FSa and 3pm Su: $15 w/discounts; and at 8pm Th April 5 and 12: $7. Holland Point Civic Center, 919 Walnut Ave., North Beach: 410-286-1890; twinbeachplayers.com.

I've never made Hot Cross Buns and so my friend Rachel, an accomplished artisan baker came over to my kitchen for a full day of baking, eating, taking photos, just to show me how to bake Hot Cross Buns. I was pressing the shutter a lot trying to capture everything via the lens, and if you asked me what I enjoyed the most, it would be the company of someone who loves to bake and shares the same passion and also the way how with ease of a seasoned professional Rachel's hands shaped the dough within minutes into something beautiful. It is a true art form, bread making, skill one gains through years of dedication and hard work.
Rachel and I, we baked Savory pizza, Summer pizza and Hot Cross Buns. It was sunny out and on occasion we'd let some fresh air slip into the kitchen through the kitchen sliding door...it was a perfect baking day.
A Baker at heart will do anything in their power to create a delicious hugging aroma of freshly baked bread. Photo shoot set up made the kitchen less spacious and it was a bit funny to move around( we had to crawl under the table to get from the counter to the oven)... but it made for great pictures! Don't you think?
Hot Cross Buns
2cups all purpose flour
2cups bread flour
4tbl sugar
1 cup currants, or you can also use raisins if you wish
1/2cup candied ginger , recipe, if you can't find candied ginger in the store use crystallized ginger instead, and chop it into small pieces
zest of one lemon
1 tsp cardamom
1/2 tsp cinnamon
4tbl melted butter
1package of dry yeast, 2 1/4tsp
1/2cup warm water
1/2cup warm milk
1 large egg
Glaze for the Crosses
2 cups powdered sugar
milk, few teaspoons
lemon juice(optional)
- In a small bowl, combine warm milk and warm water, add yeast and stir, set aside
- In a large bowl combine flours, sugar, salt spices lemon zest, dry fruit
- You can either use a stand mixer fitted with hook attachment or make the dough by hand, with the stand mixer, put all the dry ingredients into the bowl of your stand mixer, make a little well in the center, add melted butter, egg and yeast mixture and knead on low speed until the dough is smooth, place the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap or damp towel and let rise for an hour
- The Art of egg cracking :-)
- Adding butter, yeast mixture and kneading the dough with your hands
- Shaping the buns
- Lightly oil the pan to prevent sticking
- Cover the pan with a damp paper towel, kitchen towel or plastic wrap, let the buns proof for about 30-45 minutes
- Preheat oven to 400F, bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown on the top
Baked Hot Buns sans the cross
Pipe the Crosses
Using a whisk, mixer or a wooden spoon, in a medium bowl mix together powdered sugar with few tsp of milk, don't add to much milk or glaze will be too thin, if desired add a drop of lemon juice.
Take a small plastic bag, fill it with the glaze, snip of the corner and pipe the crosses on room temperature crosses.
These also freeze well.

10 Latin American Artists You Should Know at arteBA 2014
Artsy Editorial
Image rights: PAAP
Referencing postwar movements like Abstract Expressionism, Fluxus, Arte Povera, Minimalism, Process art, and appropriation art, León Ferrari's work comprises wood, ceramic, and wire sculptures, mobiles, drawings, collages, and paintings. An engineer who came to drawing via sculpture, Ferrari explores language as a visual material in his "written drawings," which use symbols and the gestures of handwriting to convey emotion. Often critical of religious and political authority, Ferrari was exiled to Brazil in 1976 for his ideology. His controversial 1985 work Last Judgment is a reproduction of Michelangelo's famed fresco, which the artist left beneath a cage of pigeons.

Expanded Recall Involves Limited Number of Lots of Avaira Sphere Lenses
Expanded Recall Involves Limited Number of Lots of Avaira Sphere Lenses
PLEASANTON, CA--(Marketwire - Nov 15, 2011) - CooperVision announced today that it is expanding its worldwide recall of the Avaira brand product line of contact lenses to include a limited number of lots of Avaira Sphere contact lenses. In continued collaboration with the United States Food and Drug Administration, CooperVision is expanding the recall because it identified certain lots of Avaira Sphere lenses that did not meet its updated quality requirements due to the level of a silicone oil residue.
The presence of the residue (silicone oil) on Avaira Sphere contact lenses may cause hazy vision or discomfort, severe eye pain or eye injuries requiring medical treatment. Not everyone experiences the same symptoms.
"The company is confident we found the problem and have taken corrective action to fix the problem," said Christine Moench, Vice President, Global Regulatory Affairs and Quality Assurance. "The health and safety of our customers is our top priority."
If you wear Avaira Sphere contact lenses and experience any symptoms, CooperVision recommends that you stop wearing the lenses immediately. Contact your eye care practitioner for advice.
Avaira Sphere contact lens wearers should:
In August 2011, CooperVision announced a recall of limited lots of Avaira Toric contact lenses. CooperVision has identified the issue and has corrected it through its quality system process.
CooperVision will continue to supply Avaira Sphere lenses that are not affected by this recall.
As part of the expanded recall, CooperVision is notifying its customers and requests that eye care practitioners contact their patients regarding this recall. Communication efforts are focused at eye care professional and distributors to effectively reach lens wearers. CooperVision recall efforts include:
The total number of Avaira Sphere lenses manufactured that are affected by the recall is 6.6M, of which 4.9M were shipped to customers globally. CooperVision intends to replace the recalled product with available Avaira Sphere inventory.
About CooperVision
CooperVision, a unit of The Cooper Companies, Inc. (NYSE: COO), is one of the world's leading manufacturers of soft contact lenses. The Company produces a full array of monthly, two-week and daily disposable contact lenses, all featuring advanced materials and optics.

Through a combination of innovative products and focused practitioner support, the company brings a refreshing perspective to the marketplace, thereby creating real advantages for customers and wearers.

March 07. 2014 1:07PM
CONCORD - A convicted sex offender from Antrim is accused of repeatedly sexually assaulting a boy he tutored and mentored, acts that took place in three different communities.
Max E. Wilson, 69, was arrested at the Hillsborough County jail in Manchester, where he was being detained on other misdemeanor sexual assault charges involving the same boy out of Antrim.
Wilson is charged with six counts of sexual assault, all misdemeanors, and two felony charges of prohibited person from childcare service.
Police said the investigation began in January when an original complaint was filed with Hopkinton police. At that time it was alleged Wilson, a registered sex offender, was having inappropriate contact with a boy.
Wilson was living with a family in Antrim at the time and allegedly assaulted the boy while there. Police said the victim did not live at the residence, but was an acquaintance of the family. He allegedly assaulted the boy three separate times over three to four days.
Investigators then learned Wilson allegedly assaulted the same boy in both Hopkinton and Concord. As a result, all three agencies opened a joint investigation.
According to police, Wilson agreed to be a mentor and tutor for the child, never disclosing to the family that he was a sex offender. The family eventually became concerned about Wilson's behavior, researched him on the internet and discovered he was a registered sex offender.
Then they consulted with their church before contacting Hopkinton police.
Police said the investigation revealed Wilson assaulted the boy at various Concord restaurants and retail establishments during the first two weeks in January.
Antrim police issued warrants for Wilson's arrest in late January. He was arrested and detained on $50,000 cash bail. He has been in the Valley Street jail in Manchester ever since.
Arrest warrants from both Concord and Hopkinton were subsequently obtained and served Thursday on Wilson at the jail. He was to be arraigned Friday in 6th Circuit Court, Concord District Division.
Police are asking anyone with information concerning the case to call them at 603-335-8600 or Concord Regional Crimeline at 603-226-3100.

By Hamid Shalizi and Maria Golovnina
KABUL (Reuters) - With a week to go before Afghanistan's presidential election, escalating violence across the country risks undermining the credibility of a vote meant to mark the first democratic transfer of power in Afghan history.
The Taliban have declared war on the April 5 election, calling it a Western-backed sham and threatening to do everything in their power to derail the vote through a campaign of gun attacks, bombings and assassinations.
A brazen raid by a squad of suicide bombers and gunmen on an election office in Kabul this week sent a chilling message to voters as they prepared to choose a successor to President Hamid Karzai.
"Such attacks may not derail the election, but they will certainly create fear and anxiety among the people," said Nader Nadery, chairman of FEFA, Afghanistan's largest election monitoring group.
"This is the aim of the Taliban and insurgent groups - to discourage people from voting. But the election has to happen on schedule because there is no other option."
Karzai is barred by the constitution from running for another term after 12 years in power, but he is widely expected to retain a hand in politics through officials loyal to him.
A significant rise in violence could complicate the process of counting ballots and create uncertainty over the outcome of the vote, potentially allowing Karzai to stay at the helm for a much longer period than initially expected.
In a move that could further dent confidence in the election, most foreign observers have withdrawn their monitors in the wake of last week's attack on a luxury hotel in which nine people, including one election observer, were killed.
The presence of a full-fledged international monitoring team is key to preventing a repeat of the widespread fraud seen during the previous presidential vote in 2009, when 20 percent of ballots had to be annulled.
Now, only a handful of foreign observers, mainly from the European Union mission, are left in the country, with most confined to their compounds for fear of further violence.
The United Nations estimates that total civilian casualties from the increasingly vicious insurgency rose by 14 percent in 2013, with 2,959 dead and 5,656 injured.
The prospect of more attacks has jangled nerves in Kabul and beyond, and given rise to wild speculation that the Taliban could mount ever more sophisticated operations such as plane hijackings in the run-up to the election.
On Friday, insurgents from the militant group which imposed harsh sharia, or Islamic law, during its reign between 1996 and 2001, forced their way into a guesthouse used by foreigners in the capital.
In another worrying development, the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan have secretly agreed to join forces to carry out attacks in Afghanistan, with Pakistani militants announcing a ceasefire with their government in order to preserve militant bases used to stage cross-border attacks.
"The point is, we know the opponents of the elections are going to try to disrupt them and the Taliban have been very clear about that," said U.S. ambassador James Cunningham.
"And ... there's not going to be any way to completely insulate the entire election structure from violence."
Crucially, many Afghans said they were too afraid to vote in the current environment.
"People are more concerned about their lives and safety than the elections," said Abdul Rahim, a shopkeeper in Kabul. "If something is not worth your life, why risk it?"
Afghanistan's neighbors and the United States will be watching closely how the election unfolds, because it may give an idea of how stable Afghanistan will be in the months to come.
NATO-led forces, which have been reinforcing security since the Taliban were toppled in 2001, are preparing to pull out most troops this year, but Afghan forces who are taking over from them have vowed to hold a safe vote.
In private, officials concede that the violence is likely to deter many voters from casting their ballots and that polling stations are likely to be targeted.
If the turnout is too low the election might be declared invalid altogether, but the risk of that happening is slight. In the troubled 2009 vote, only four million of 13 million eligible voters turned out, but it was still deemed a valid election.
"With such attacks, the Taliban strategy and main objective is to scare away the people from voting. That means lower turnout and the results could be called invalid," said a prominent Afghan politician.
"The election is going to happen by all means but targeting the turnout is very dangerous trend."

China bought 171,000 metric tons of soybeans from exporters for delivery in the marketing year beginning Sept. 1, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said yesterday. Buyers in the Asian nation are waiting for the new U.S. crop to develop, China National Grain and Oils Information Center said in an e-mailed report today. "China is showing continued interest in new-crop U.S. soybeans," Ker Chung Yang, an analyst at Phillip Futures Pte in Singapore, wrote in a report today. Soybeans for delivery in July rose 0.2 percent to $14.1575 a bushel by 7:18 a.m. on the Chicago Board of Trade on volume 45 percent below the 100-day average for the time of day. China imported 3.98 million tons of soybeans in April, customs figures compiled by Bloomberg show. Total buying, including purchases from South America, will probably reach a record 7 million to 7.5 million tons in June, according to the grains center. Corn headed for a third retreat, poised for the longest streak of losses in more than six weeks, while wheat swung between advances and declines. "The grains are generally weaker, as the weather is conducive to planting in the Midwest again today and has been for the past two or three days," economist Dennis Gartman wrote in his daily newsletter, referring to the largest U.S. corn- growing region. Corn for delivery in July dropped 0.1 percent to $6.50 a bushel and wheat for the same delivery month added 0.4 percent to $6.965 a bushel after slipping as much as 0.1 percent. Milling wheat for delivery in November traded on NYSE Liffe in Paris fell 0.2 percent to 209.75 euros ($270.01) a ton. --With assistance from Feiwen Rong in Beijing, Patrick McKiernan in New York and Rudy Ruitenberg in Paris.

In a story about Horatius Cocles:
Porsena, rēx Etruscōrum, ad restituendōs in rēgnum Tarquiniōs īnfestō exercitū Rōmam vēnit.
Porsena, the king of the Etruscans, to restore the Tarquins to power, came to Rome ... It can't be just with his aggressive army, or it would be cum īnfestō exercitū, wouldn't it? It can't be by means of. So what does the ablative there mean?.
In a story about Pyrrhus, Rēx Ēpīrī, the king Pyrrhus sends his elephants against the Romans:
Rōmānōs vāstōrum corporum mōlēs terribilisque superadstantium armātōrum speciēs turbāvit.
The size of the vast bodies, and the terrible appearance of the armed standing-over-them somethings threw the Romans into confusion. I can't work out what superadstantium and armātōrum are modifying. Can it be mōlēs too?
Later, in the same story, Pyrrhus was burying the dead Roman soldiers:
Quōs cum adversō vulnere et trucī vultū etiam mortuōs iacentēs vīdisset...
Whom, when he saw their something wound and fierce expression, even lying dead... I'm assuming the cum matches the vidisset, and adverso vulnere is ablative of quality or specification, why just one wound, and why adversus. That means opposite, or in front of, doesn't it?

Maybe the "i"s have it.
Or rather BMW has them. As in their "i" line of cars.
But for the company, the new electric vehicles are supposedly part of a larger vision for sustainability.
With its investments in car-sharing businesses DriveNow, presumably like the Car2go model, and even mass transit systems, the Bavarian carmaker is making a strong case for their stated goal to support different types of transportation, and not simply the automobile
It will even apply their green strategy for how the vehicles are made.
The head of the interior design team for the new models says they will use 50 percent less energy and 70 percent less water during manufacturing. Impressive numbers.
Of course for car-centric consumers they will be much more interested in the numbers of the i3 and i8 in and of themselves. And also, the i3 Coupe Concept which will be on display this week at the L.A. Auto Show.
Is it only us, or does the rear three-quarter view of the car strike you as a bit Pontiac Aztek, albeit sleeker and with more appeal? See Jalopnik's take on the electric here.

Carrie Underwood 'Blows' Past Competition to Debut at No. 1 on Album Charts
Carrie Underwood continues her streak of No. 1 albums, debuting at the top spot on the all-genre Billboard 200 albums chart this week with her fourth studio effort, 'Blown Away.' The 14-song collection sold a whopping 267,000 copies in its first week of release, earning the title of country music's biggest digital debut since 2010.
The album is Underwood's fourth consecutive No. 1 country album and marks a creative departure from her previous efforts. "I feel like so many people get stuck. They write, they get songs together, they make an album, they go on tour. Then they do it all over again," the superstar tells Reuters. "I just wanted to change things up. I can't have stuff to write about if I don't have a life."
The album's lead single, 'Good Girl,' is currently No. 8 on the Country Songs chart and has been certified gold, signifying 500,000 digital downloads. The 'American Idol' alum debuted the project's title track, 'Blown Away,' last week with a performance of the song on her old television stomping grounds.
To date, Underwood has sold more than 14 million albums, with 14 No. singles to her credit. The singer is currently gearing up for her 2012 Blown Away headlining tour, which will take Underwood to the United Kingdom and Australia for the very first time before she returns to North America for a 54-date domestic leg.

The debate keeps raging over background checks for gun buyers. And we've found some people are getting caught 'lying' to get a permit for a concealed weapon.
We're finding people facing charges when it 'appears' they try to do the right thing--get a permit to carry a gun. The problem? Their dirty little secrets.
"Why do you think you should have a gun if you have that trouble in your past? Trouble in my past?"
19 Action News confronts a young man recently investigated for falsification.
He was caught lying when he applied for a concealed weapons permit. Didn't revealed he'd been convicted of a crime as a juvenile.
"Why didn't you put that down?"
"Why didn't I put that down? My understanding was my record was sealed when I turned 18," replied gun permit applicant, Dustin McRoberts.
Every year Cuyahoga County Sheriff deputies approve thousands of concealed weapons permits.
But lately we've been noticing people investigated for falsification.
Not admitting they've had trouble with the law.
Not revealing sex crimes, mental incompetence or trouble as a juvenile including drug trafficking and felony assault.
Deputies say anyone applying for a gun permit gets checked using fingerprints and social security numbers through police databases.
"It's hard to get in somebody's mind why they would lie about their background," said Sgt. Don Michalosky, Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Office.
"Just trying to follow the rules and the laws."
Meet the wife of Charles Crabtree. His case is moving through court. Records show he didn't reveal an old conviction.
His wife says the case happened 28 years ago when he was a teen. She thinks this isn't what it seems. Hiding something to get away with carrying a gun.
"Again trying to follow the rules. Trying to let everybody know we have a gun and we have a permit for this."
So what about that? Why indict people going to a county office to file for a permit.
We hear all the time anyone can buy a gun on the street. Why go after people following the process?
"Doing the right thing is full disclosure. So if they're withholding information, we can guess what their intent was. But that wouldn't be how the justice system operates."
We checked on what happens.
First--you don't get a permit.
As for criminal charges for falsification--Cuyahoga County prosecutors consider the 'intent' of the person caught keeping secrets about the past. And how long ago was the conviction? Was it a crime of violence?
In recent months 14 cases. One man got probation. Three cases are pending. 10 dismissed.
Dustin McRoberts had his case for lying dismissed.
His trouble came from not revealing a breaking and entering case as a kid.
"I was 13. dumb. Broke into a house. It was my first offense."
In the end deputies say if you keep a secret about your past they're not reading your mind. You'll end up in court even if it looked like you we're doing the right thing to get a permit to carry a gun.
With guns a dirty little secret can be a big thing.

A visit to Sandrine's and Harvard Square
By Margarita Martinez
One such institution is Cardullo's. I love this specialty market because stepping inside means entering a shop with a decidedly old-world European feel. They offer candy and chocolates I haven't seen since I was last in Scotland and Rome and there are rich cheeses from as far away as Holland and as close as Vermont. It is a great place to splurge on dinner party appetizers and food gifts during the holidays and to pick up a gourmet sandwich at the deli counter. Cardullo's has been family-owned and -operated for over sixty years. I met with co-owner Donez and Francesca Cardullo Tavilla who let me know how excited they are to again see more independently-owned and small chain shops in the neighborhood.
Speaking of a European feel, I headed over to Sandrine's, a French-Alsace bistro named after the daughter of executive chef and owner Raymond Ost. This gorgeous restaurant feels very French with its art-deco wrought iron exterior and lushly decorated interior. Sandrine's serves classic French bistro cuisine and dishes from the Alsace region of France, which is on the border of Germany and Switzerland.
Chef Ost is extremely passionate and proud of the cuisine that he serves at Sandrine's. He is a man who relishes the taste, smell, and look of well-prepared food. While we were making the flammekueche, also known as tarte flambee, I commented how it was a bit like preparing a pizza. If you could have seen how his mustache hairs bristled and his back straightened at the suggestion that I would compare the commonplace pizza with the pastry-bottomed, fromage blanc-layered, and nutmeg-scented specialty flammekueche! Well, I still say that it is as fun to make as pizza, but flammekueche should be credited as its own delicious dish to be savored.
On my visit, we also made a unique French-Alsace and New England dish: choucroute, or sauerkraut, with scallops, mussels, clams, salmon, and bacon with a Riesling seafood cream sauce. Now, this is not your average canned or hot dog vendor sauerkraut. This choucroute has been slow-cooked for two hours with delicious smoked bacon. Chef Ost's decadent dish had a myriad of flavors and textures to enjoy. The seafood cream sauce was most impressive and I can attest that Chef Ost continued to taste it for "flavor" off camera saying "mmm, mmm," every time. Not even Chef Ost, who has been cooking this type of food for 45 years, can get tired of that incredible sauce.
As much as I liked Chef Ost's flammekueche and choucroute dish, nothing could compare to his foie gras. This liver was like silk on my tongue as its heavenly richness melted away in my mouth. I recognize that I am not your average American diner as my favorite deli-meat is liverwurst and I get incredibly excited at the prospect of eating liver, but trust me that this foie gras is an otherworldly experience for those who enjoy eating meat.
That flavorful taste of foie gras nicely sums up a visit to Sandrine's and Harvard Square. It's as if I had been transported to a beautiful bistro in France with an incredible chef in a neighborhood where unique shops and eateries agree that food should be savored, not rushed and run-of-the-mill.

How Teleworking Works Best: A Practical Guide for Managing Teleworkers
- Authors:
Publication Date:
October 2013
Telework is increasingly a component of organizational workforce structures because it can provide reduced costs and many other advantages. Telework may, however, be a terrifying prospect for one group: the managers whose job it is to lead a dispersed workforce. The good news is that the shift from "management by walking around" to "management by connecting around" does not require a manager to reinvent her job, but it does require a shift in her perception. Successful managers of teleworkers are those who have learned to manage the work and not the workers, and communicate regularly and mindfully with all workers.

The genesis of the merger between the Mystic River Rugby Club and Middlesex Barbarians Rugby Club, two teams that have practiced and played less than two miles apart from each other over the last 13 years, began not in New England, but overseas.
The top players from each team got the opportunity to play together during tournaments at the national and international levels over the past few years. The experience was such a positive one that it led to a joint project with players from both teams competing together on a rugby sevens team earlier this summer.
"We had a body of top players playing together, and wanting to continue playing together," explains Dale du Preez, the marketing director for Mystic River Rugby Club. "It led to something that both teams had previously discussed, we had discussed merging before, so this wasn�t out of the blue."
With that in mind, the two locally-based clubs announced their merger on July 15. The merger allows the two clubs to combine rosters to form potentially stronger entries into the New England Rugby Football Union, with the Division 1 team culling top players from both teams to compete under the Mystic River moniker, and the Division 2 team featuring a second tier of players from both clubs under the name, "Mystic Barbarians."
"It actually means that more players will be able to play rugby at different levels," explains du Preez. "It means we�ll have more players who are sort of top-level players from both clubs, those people who have gone to play in London and Las Vegas, as well as a bigger staff and bigger �B� pool and �C� pool playing regular rugby. There will be guys a couple of steps off of the top line still getting great coaching and getting a chance to play. The takeaway for us is that we will be able to offer a broader range of players the chance to learn and grow; it�s not just making a better team at the top."
Another benefit is the consolidation of each team�s development programs: Middlesex traditionally has fielded a great program for developing talent for college-aged athletes, while Mystic River�s strong youth program was also well regarded for culling and developing young talent. The merger brings both programs under one umbrella in one place.
With the merger, it was decided that the program with more longevity and tradition would be tabbed for the team�s name; Mystic River was founded in 1974, and has qualified for the USA Rugby National Elite 8 from 2010-2012, while Middlesex was founded in 2002, and at one point made six consecutive USA Rugby National Sweet 16 appearances.
The merged teams will practice and play at Pine Banks Park beginning in the fall; Pine Banks traditionally was the home of Mystic River, while the Middlesex Barbarians called Malden Catholic home.
"Summer is when we run our big youth programs, so at the moment we are using both teams� facilities," says du Preez. "In the interest of using space more effectively, we�re using both facilities through the end of summer, and then everyone transitions over to Pine Banks in the fall when the kids go back to school."
Current Mystic River President, Brett Willis, will continue in that role, while Middlesex President Dan Mullane moves to Director of recruiting. Middlesex coach Josh Smith will be head coach for the merged Division 1 team, while Mark Holi will coach the Division 2 team.
"It means we�ll have more competition for spots on the rosters, which will be a good thing," says du Preez. "Everyone will be pushing a bit harder for their spot. It also means if somebody comes in as a lower grade rugby player, they will be able to work their way up."

Modern Family is one of the best new sitcoms to come around in a long time and it's largely because the creators got the humor/eye candy quotient exactly right. It's funny and there's plenty to look at for the guys. Plus I like to pretend that Ed O'Neal is actually still playing Al Bundy, only Al finally won the lottery, dumped Peg, and married Sofia Vergara. Modern Family really wraps up that character arc for me.
Sofia Vergara comes from Columbia, proving once again that South Americans pretty much have a monopoly on hot women. Check out these Vergara pics after the jump and tell me you don't agree:

WENATCHEE, Wash. — Washington's 2013 apple crop estimate has shrunk from its Aug. 1 forecast and that's a good thing, industry sources say, since there's more competition this year from larger crops elsewhere.
The Nov. 1 storage report by the Wenatchee Valley Traffic Association and the Yakima Valley Grower-Shippers Association pegs the fresh-pack crop at 113.2 million, 40-pound boxes. That's down 6 percent from the Aug. 1 forecast and down almost 12 percent from last year's record 128.2 million boxes.
However, this year's crop remains the second largest on record.
The new figure is based on what's been picked and shipped between August and Nov. 1 and estimates of how much went into storage and will be good enough for packing over the next 11 months and how many apples remained to be picked in November.
The total number is down simply because the crop picked out less than growers and fieldmen thought it would in August, said Dan Kelly, assistant manager of the Washington Growers Clearing House Association in Wenatchee.
Movement — the pace of sales shipments — is good but not as good as a year ago and it doesn't have to be, Kelly said. Prices are lower but still good, he said.
As of Nov. 1, 17.1 million boxes of new crop had been shipped, leaving 96 million boxes in storage, compared with 19 million shipped and 109 million left in storage a year ago, he said. Two years ago, the numbers were 14 million and 94 million. Weekly shipments have been above 2 million and should stay at that level or higher into April or May, peaking at around 3 million in December and January, he said.
"We're in good shape on movement," Kelly said.
The Clearing House no longer releases the average price of all varieties because some in the industry note it is skewed upward by Honeycrisp, a high-priced variety.
The average, season-to-date price as of Nov. 5, is below last year for each of the top five volume varieties, Kelly said.
Red Delicious is $17.99 a box versus $23.37 a year ago and $20.33 two years ago. Gala is $24.24 versus $26.80 and $23.07. Honeycrisp is $57.87 versus $55.61 and $47.36.
"These aren't the best prices like last year but still pretty good," Kelly said. "I think they will remain fairly stable."
Bruce Grim, manager of the Washington Apple Growers Marketing Association, called prices and movement "decent" and said prices should remain so, given the good sales pace. Price should strengthen in January because East Coast supply will diminish, he said.
Packouts won't be as good as last year so the crop will probably be less than 113.2 million boxes, he said. That can be attributed to more quality issues from extreme heat in early September, Grim said. Bitter pit increased and in varieties like Gala where it normally is not seen and there was lenticel darkening and delayed stemble cracking on Gala, he said.
Fruit is larger, which plays well to the domestic market, Grim said.
"We could use a few more small-size to fuel export shipments," he said. "We can probably export most all of our small fruit and not compete with the East Coast in the bag (small fruit) market."
Mexico has a large crop so Washington exports there will be lighter until February, he said.

The release of updates for the Microsoft Exchange Deployment Assistant (EDA) to cater for the latest versions of Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2007 and the changing technical landscape (all explained in the EHLO blog) is very welcome. Generally I am a big fan of anything that helps to guide the deployment of technology in an intelligent manner and it's good that Microsoft devotes the necessary resources to keep EDA updated.
The caveat of course is that the recommendations generated by any tool have to be taken with the proverbial grain of salt. The recommendations are based on solid research and knowledge of best practice, but the very nature of any tool that attempts to understand the problems facing human beings is a total lack of context. In other words, the tools work extremely well in certain circumstances but less well when faced with some of the edge conditions facing administrators in the real world. For this reason, it's absolutely essential that anyone who runs EDA takes the time to assess the output in the context of the company's business requirements and operational environment for email.
I also note the release of the first version of EDA for Exchange 2013. By necessity, this version is limited to greenfield deployments and hybrid connectivity with Office 365. Without Exchange 2013 CU1, no deployment can occur alongside Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2007 servers, so EDA doesn't attempt to cover these scenarios. As the EHLO post says, "These additional scenarios will be added in the coming months."
On another topic, when browsing other articles on different web sites, I came across Steve Goodman's commentary on using PinPoint DNS with Exchange. The recommendations offered in the article make eminent sense, if only because a decision by the CA/Browser Forum will implement "new standards for certificate issuance, stating that no certificate will be issued with an invalid top-level-domain expiring after November 1, 2015" (if you're interested in the full logic behind the decision, you can download the forum's document on "Guidance on the Deprecation of Internal Server Names"). The net effect of the decision by the CA/Browser Forum (including Microsoft) is that you can no longer buy three-year certificates that contain internal names (those not published to the Internet), which then brings the question of how to plan to secure client connections for Exchange deployments.
Split DNS is the classic solution for the problem of presenting different DNS names to external connections and internal connections. Split DNS obviously still works, but I very much prefer the precision and clarity of the PinPoint solution. Having just a single set of names for services such as Autodiscover and ActiveSync sounds like an excellent approach. Once DNS is configured properly, it will take care of everything. I had dinner with Steve and a number of other MVPs in Bellevue at the recent MVP Global Summit. Steve said then that he wrote articles late at night, almost for relaxation. Sounds good!
Also at the MVP Summit, I sat down with Richard Campbell, the avuncular host of RunAs Radio and recorded a chat about Exchange 2013 and the current state of play. The program is now available for download on the RunAs Radio site. Although it lasts 36 minutes, it really was just a chat between two friends – almost like a discussion about technology in the pub. I do hope its content is somewhat better than most pub chats…

Kennedy-era folks at Disneyland in Kodachrome. Should I go on here about how thoroughly obsessed I was with Disneyland in the 1960s? At first I ached to go there just to drive the Autopia cars. The real fixation started after my first visit in 1960. It was like another world -- actually, a multitude of other worlds, all of them ones I'd rather live in. That being not quite possible, I settled for the next best thing: bring it into my real life. I organized the hundreds of color slides I took into elaborate shows with music and even printed programs. I drew and painted Disneyland artwork. I dubbed my cactus garden "The Living Desert" and tape-recorded a narration for walks through it. I built my own Storybook Land
in one corner of our garden
, and a
diorama in the basement
. I insisted we start having our Sunday dinners in the dining room so I could wheel the TV set around in order to watch
The Wonderful World of Color
-- in black-and-white. I sent an inquiry about employment in the park, but they weren't hiring teenagers who lived 400 miles away. Even now I think I'd really like to live there, or at least the one of the 50s and 60s. Must be a Peter Pan complex.
