Intrepid II has been in a time capsule!
A must see if you are considering a new yacht of this stature.
Hardly used & the most pampered yacht that we have ever had the pleasure to represent.
She has been under Hinckley's care, covered and stored inside a heated building, captain driven and maintained with a very open pocket book.
Intrepid II looks like a new yacht that has just been delivered except the brightwork is better! Her equipment has hardly been used - just 51 hrs on the engine and 4 hrs. on the generator.
In almost all ways she is like a new yacht but at a huge savings of just over $340,000 – An incredible opportunity!
A few of her upgrades and features are as follows:
The Island Packet 465 offers exceptional livability, practical cruising features and impeccable craftsmanship. The large center cockpit provides more than just a comfortable place for your crew to congregate. It provides a safe working area from which you can perform all the necessary adjustments underway. Wide side decks, strategically placed hand rails and recessed foredecks maximize your safety on deck. Below, the expansive main salon boasts more than seven feet of headroom, a well-appointed combination of hand crafted teak furnishings, cabinetry and storage, a nav station that would excite any world cruiser, a gourmet galley fit for a master chef and two of the most spacious staterooms you'll find anywhere.
Cruising World Magazine had this to say about the Island Packet 465:
We cast off the jib and staysail furling lines, sheeted home the sails, and were off, reaching at an impressive 6.4 knots in only 11 knots of apparent wind. When the breeze later reached up to 15, we got 7.7 knots on the GPS. The 465 felt good, and the motion was subdued and easy.
If you are considering purchasing a new yacht or want only the very best in a brokerage yacht – this yacht is for you! Call us now.
S&J Yachts are the mid-Atlantic Dealers for Island Packet Yachts. For more information on Island Packet and on our company visit our website www.SJYACHTS.com .
I am available on my cell phone 410 971-1071 to answer any questions you may have. Please call me Jack Malatich.
Balanced between an inviting and spacious living environment and safe, functional operations, Island Packets are renowned for their comfort and practicality regardless of their distance from shore.
Island Packets attention to livability truly maximizes onboard comfort, with home-like conveniences of large berths, enclosed shower stalls, a gourmet galley fit for the finest chef and plenty of dry storage areas throughout the yacht for equipping and provisioning an extended voyage.
Recessed foredecks with bulwarks, uncluttered side decks and full length cabin top handrails provide safe footing and security on deck. Sail controls for setting, furling and sheeting all lead to the safety and security of the cockpit.
From the spacious and well ventilated interiors to the comfortable motion in a seaway, Island Packets have been designed for cruising comfort.
The condition is absolutely impeccable! It cannot be emphasized enough, that Intrepid II appears as though she has never left the showroom!
The IP465 has 2 generous staterooms and 2 heads. Bulkheads and trim are finished in satin varnished light teak. The cabin soles are of teak and holly in the accommodations areas but are of non-skid GRP in areas of high traffic such as the companionway and galley. Overhead lights and numerous reading lamps with individual dimmers are found throughout. There are plenty of handholds where needed, reflecting the offshore intent of the design.
Easy companionway steps lead you down into the main salon where there is 7' 3" headroom. (Elsewhere there is at least 6' 6" headroom.) Large salon windows forward and on both sides give you panoramic views and so much light. No worries – these are CE Category A – Ocean rated safety windows.
On either side are full-length settees. The port settee extends to the centerline to make a double berth, and both settees can be used as sea berths. The large main dining table stows against a bulkhead wine rack, opening up the area for socializing.
Adjacent to the companionway on the port side is the deluxe navigation center. There is also a wet locker within arm's reach. For more details see "Nav & Electronics" section below.
To starboard of the companionway is a really great galley. For more details see the "Galley" section below.
Master Stateroom
The large owner's stateroom is aft. It features a large island berth with an innerspring mattress and a private ensuite head with a separate shower stall. Six opening ports surround the stateroom and a large overhead hatch provide lots of light and ventilation. The foot end of the berth has a hinged lid and easily lifts up to a large storage space for those big bulky items. Opposite the berth is a comfortable seat and storage lockers. There is a large cedar-lined hanging locker with extra height rods outboard which provides abundant clothes storage. Access to the large lazarette is also available through the aft bulkhead.
Guest Stateroom
The guest stateroom is forward. It too has a large centreline berth and plentiful storage. Same as the master, the foot end of the berth lifts up to a large storage space. Opening ports and an overhead hatch allows abundant natural light and ventilation. There is a privacy door to the guest head. There is a cedar-lined hanginglocker and bureaus for additional storage.
Two Heads
Both luxurious heads feature vanities with solid acrylic countertops, separate shower stalls with folding acrylic doors and VacuFlush heads.
Additional Features:
The spacious inline galley is conveniently located aft of the salon on the starboard side both outboard and inboard. There is a tremendous amount of counter space - approx. 20 square feet. Opening ports on either side keep it light and airy. There are 2 top-loading refrigerator and freezer compartments, with digitally controlled cooling units, which provide generous cold storage. Either compartment may be used for refrigerated or frozen storage by the setting of the controls. A pull-out refrigerated drawer below is also included for quick access to popular beverages and food. Also featured in the galley are built-in dish racks, cutlery drawers, deep double sinks, a slide out trash bin and abundant cabinet and locker storage.
Adjacent to the companionway is the deluxe navigation center. It features a high backed swivel armchair, an inlaid chart table (big enough for full sized charts) with a storage tray. A Raymarine chart plotter and other electronics are mounted here with room for even more if you choose. This area will impress even the most experienced cruiser. Of note is its easy access to both a wet locker and the cockpit.
Additional Features:
The Raymarine electronic suite is fully integrated with all components communicating via NMEA protocols.
This Island Packet 465 has a generous cutter sail plan, an inmast furling main, power winches, coupled with the convenience of all major control lines led aft to the cockpit provides safe and easy sailing. The patented Hoyt Boom equipped staysail adds considerable performance and is self tacking for added ease. The mast is anodized and powder coated with double spreaders. The standing rigging is all stainless.
Additional Features:
The Yanmar 75hp 4 cylinder diesel engine has barely been broken in with only 51 hours. The same is true of the generator (4 hours). Extensive sound control is achieved with lead-lined insulation and gasketed access doors and panels. There is good access to both the generator and the engine through removable front and rear panels and hinged side opening doors.
The engine and electrical work is all manufactured to the highest standards and includes such features as Racor fuel filters, separate fuel lift pump, full "green wire" bonding to all through hulls, a galvanic isolator, GFCI outlets where required, and a Link 20 dual-bank battery monitor.

I know they weren't popular here, but I do like the new uniforms, especially from the high BTN angle.
Edit: Also, I kind of expected Robinson to have Robinson III on his jersey. Not sure why, but it was surprising to not see the number.
November 9th, 2012 at 12:10 PM ^
Beilein ran a few 1-2-2 sets in when McGary and Morgan played together. Had a high/low look similar to Kansas (Bill Self) type offense. They didn't get deep enough into set without getting a shot, but they look to have another post option right away. I am hoping they add the single down pick to this concept Kansas runs on the backside for Hardaway/Robinson/Stauskus because it is great action and hard to stop. It is very similar action to what else Beiein likes to do and I have a feeling they will add it.
They also had McGary catch the first pass on the wing. He then passed to the top, set a downscreen and then posted up. Great action to work both bigs together at the same time. I haven't seen much of that before. These type of movements allow McGary and Morgan to play together and utilize both of their skill sets.

While backing Bashar al-Assad in Syria, Russia is talking with Cyprus about the possibility of using an airbase in Paphos. Talks are also focused on allowing Russian warships to use the port of Limassol.
Cash-strapped Cyprus received a $3.3 billion loan from Russia last year. UPI reports Vladimir Putin seems ready to restructure the loan in way that will save Cyprus 10 percent in payback costs.
Cypriot Minister of Defense Fotis Fotiou has held discussions on the use of the airbase with Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov but stressed that a decision to open the base to them–if made–will not be the result of the financial considerations.
Said Fotiou: "There is no 'exchange' principle here. Facilities in our ports will be given to the Russians just as they are given in other countries. It is the same as the United States, which uses port facilities in European nations such as France and Germany and in Israel."

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid isn't on the ballot this year, but he's very much in the game.
With Republicans clamoring to take away his majority, Reid is helping Democratic Senate candidates across the nation raise money and demonize their opponents. Nowhere is his hand more visible than in his home state, where Democrats can capture a seat from Republicans.
Reid, who had an arduous race of his own in Nevada two years ago, has loaned his former campaign staff to Rep. Shelley Berkley, Las Vegas' representative in the House for the past 14 years.
Berkley is Reid's hope for taking Nevada's other Senate seat away from Republican Dean Heller, who was appointed to it a year ago when GOP Sen. John Ensign resigned in anticipation of a highly critical Ethics Committee report about his affair with an aide.
"It's reasonable to make the argument that I have two opponents, yes: Shelley Berkley and Harry Reid," said Heller.
Republicans need to pick up a net four seats to take over the Senate and Reid's job as majority leader. Key to that is holding onto the seats the GOP already has, and Heller's is among the most vulnerable.
The race won't be easy for either Berkley or Heller, both longtime politicians facing questions from angry voters fed up with a devastated housing market and stagnant economy. Nevada's unemployment rate of 11.6 percent is the highest of any state.
Heller, who represented Nevada's conservative northern half in the House for three terms, needs to woo swing voters in the urban centers of Las Vegas and Reno. Berkley is facing her first competitive race in more than a decade as she also fights off ethics allegations that she used her office to advance her husband's medical career. The two candidates are nearly matched in campaign dollars; each has more than $4 million in cash on hand.
It's unclear whether Reid's string-pulling will help or hinder Berkley. Nevada is divided between Republican and Democratic voters, leaving independents to decide elections with often unpredictable results.
Democrats have a stronger party organization in the state, but Reid is surprisingly unpopular in view of the clout he wields. Conservatives blame him for the struggling economy and oversized federal deficits and are incensed about him butting in on this year's Senate contest. Sensing opportunity, Heller has used Reid's attacks in fundraising emails.
"Every time Harry Reid opens his mouth he just annoys me. I don't believe he is honest," said Barbara Teixeira, 71, a former Democrat and volunteer in Heller's campaign against Berkley. "Harry Reid doesn't care about her at all. All Harry Reid cares about is keeping the Senate majority."
Reid's support also won't help Berkley with voters who claim she hasn't done enough to challenge other Democrats in Washington.
"Shelley Berkley is one of those people who follow the crowd," said Robert Rickly, 49, a Republican business owner in Las Vegas who supports Heller. "She just kind of votes along party lines."
But Berkley may benefit from Reid's ability to force Republicans into unpopular votes on some issues while protecting Democrats from them on others. Berkley is following the game plan.
She has held more than a dozen news conferences in recent months to portray Heller as anti-women, anti-veteran, anti-small business and anti-Hispanic. She is running an aggressive ad campaign with TV spots and mailers circulated across the state.
Heller has largely refused to talk about Berkley. His first TV spot aired Sunday and is broad in its approach. It features Heller criticizing Congress for not passing an annual budget. "They do a lot of talking, but they haven't done their job in over three years," Heller states. "It's time Washington delivered on something."
Heller's campaign has argued that it doesn't need to run defense or offense while Berkley is doing both.
Berkley is being investigated by the House ethics committee for allegations made by the Nevada GOP that she tried to influence federal reimbursement rates for dialysis providers and lobbied to save a kidney transplant program in Las Vegas administrated by her husband, Dr. Larry Lehrner. Heller also had backed the program.
"If that kidney transplant center was closed, patients would have had to travel hundreds of miles out of state in order to get their care," Berkley said. "That would have been unacceptable to me."
The ethics committee is to decide on or before July 9 whether to conduct a full investigation. But American Crossroads, a group formed by prominent Republican strategist Karl Rove, is already airing TV ads in the state accusing Berkley of "using her office to enrich her family." Berkley calls the ads "relentless smears."
The race's outcome could depend on how Republican Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama perform in Nevada. Obama won the state in 2008, but Republican George W. Bush carried the state in 2004. Five months from the election, Nevada is now viewed as a toss-up in the presidential race.
Before he went to Washington, Heller was a popular secretary of state known for his moderate views. He nearly lost his first House bid in 2006 against tea-party favorite Sharron Angle, who portrayed him as weak on conservative issues.
Since his appointment to the Senate, he's held frequent campaign appearances across the Las Vegas Valley, where the majority of citizens live. Some of his outreach efforts have foundered. Last year he canceled a meeting with the Latin Chamber of Commerce at the last minute, then alienated Nevada' large Latino constituency by saying he didn't support the DREAM Act to provide a route to citizenship for illegal immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as children.
Heller recently announced a group of Hispanic Republican supporters and has been working to restore his image within the community. He's also targeted veterans and business groups.
"No doubt I have work to do in southern Nevada," Heller said.
Berkley said she isn't shying away from Obama or Reid's help. She called Obama's campaign "an asset" and suggested she wasn't worried about turning off voters by teaming up with Reid. "This is a race between me and Dean, and Dean may try to pretend it's a race between him and somebody else. It's not," she said.
Berkley is better known than Heller in the Las Vegas Valley. Voters praise her constituency outreach efforts. "Shelley is always there for the people," said Carolen Tabor, 70, a Las Vegas retiree. "I can see her at Costco and she will hug me."
Robin Joyce, a Republican pastor in Las Vegas, said he is leaning toward Heller. Still, he praised Berkley for her work in the community, support for Israel and efforts to help small businesses.
"She is just a good lady," Joyce said. "She has always stood for Nevada issues."

Painting Is Finite
Paperback, 78 Pages
Price: $10.00
Prints in 3-5 business days
In Painting Is Finite, Hugo García Manríquez traces the edge of elemental life via elemental form. First published in Spanish under the title, Los Materiales (Mexico City: Fonda Editorial Tierra Adentro, 2008), this volume presents Manríquez's first English-language collection. In these poems, memory is a verb: it "behaves in both directions / the result that it casts / the present, that is, mobility" so that "nothing that preceded you / has prepared you for the experience / 'the return of painting.'" In such a return, we confront the incommensurable as a material surface, likened here to the written: "history is the only matter excreted by / that which dies," and thus "Newspapers seek volunteers for the shadow on the front page." This poetry inhabits the edges as a vocation, urging us into relation with the materials.

A Conversation.
|Family album: Mom pregnant and my smiling baby self.
What was it like... that moment when I was born?
"You were a tiny and perfect thing. I don't remember much of anything... the pains of labour, the delivery room, the fussing of nurses... anything except that long intense look we shared when they first put you at my breast. Your eyes were open and you were so calm, I could see every part of who you would become in that gaze. A circus could have tumbled through the room, a herd of purple elephants, and I wouldn't have noticed, I was so locked in that intense, sweet stare."
I didn't cry?
"Oh, I suppose you did... a tiny mewling like a kitten. It was your open searching eyes I remember most. And your long fingers. Much later in the night, after everyone left... your father, your grandparents, your 'big' brother who wasn't even out of diapers... the nurses brought you to me, bathed and swaddled. Alone for the first time with you, I slowly unwrapped the swaddling blankets and checked out every part of your small perfection. Those long fingers! You were a ballerina, a piano player, a sculptor... I envisioned so many lives for you in those very first hours after you were born. You nursed easily, but always seemed more interested in searching my face than suckling. I felt that, with those small dark eyes, you could see my everything."
"And what was it like... that moment when I died?"
It was late at night, that darkest and most quiet hour, and I was alone with you. All evening, I had been talking to you, singing to you, washing your face, combing your hair. I let your hair down, something you rarely did. Later, I realized that these were small rituals, preparations. Your breathing had changed and I asked the young nurse if you were in pain and she said, 'no, just part of the process'. After some time it was as though I could hear you saying, perhaps a little exasperated: "Oh lie down, Tam, stop fussing and just lie down and let's get some sleep". Only you could call me Tam and get away with it. I lay beside you on the small fold out cot and listened to your breathing and the music I had put on. The music was Ukrainian lullabies, which included that particular lullaby you sang to us when we were babies, the one you requested us to play at your funeral. Your strange breathing soothed me, the music lulled me and I dozed. After a short time, maybe half an hour, the music and your breathing stopped and I woke quickly to a great silence. A stillness.
"I didn't cry?"
No... there had been enough tears, crying, anger, despair in the days, the weeks, the few short months before. But in that still night when you allowed yourself to succumb to the terrible illness that is cancer, there was a dignity and quiet peace. Just after your breathing stopped, I crawled in the bed next to you, again a small child, and I laid my head on your breast. I held you and smoothed your hair and kissed the laughing creases around your eyes. You had been so unafraid of dying, and showed me, in one final lesson, how to be that brave.
After some time, I went to the nurse and said simply, "My Mother is gone" and then I paused, remembering, and said "it's Mother's Day". She gave me a shared sad smile. "My Mom knew how to make the most of any occasion" I said. And you did.
Happy Mother's Day
|Rare photo from the 70's: Mom with her hair down.
I would always call my Mother and say "Happy Hallmark Day"... that was our joke. A special day created by card companies and florists to market and make money from all that human sentimentality... we poked fun of it in our own way. And how could I send her flowers? There was no florist on that small island where she lived. And, in her later years, she WAS the flower lady, the grower and maker of fine bouquets. The typical 2-3 hour long phone call that would be our celebration of each other, of mothering, and the labours of women. And so it goes, just a she laboured me into this world, I peacefully laboured her out... women's work? Perhaps. Maybe losing her like that, on Mother's Day, was her gift to me... I was honoured to be at her side.
|Preparing to pin the quilt on the kitchen floor.
|Nervously starting to machine quilt, squish and flatten!
I have, tentatively at first, begun to machine quilt my memory quilt. It started out as this unwieldy and enormous beast and I wasn't sure how I would manage it, especially with my small machine. I did a lot of practicing on small bits of quilted fabric, met with the women at a local quilting store: The Workroom, and bugged my quilting friends for advice. My fingers bled as I pinned it together, one little pin every square five inches, 200 or so pins. Ouch!
The quilt is like a large sail. It has weight and enfolds me as I work with it. Sailing... I am sailing away with it now... taking my time and enjoying it. Tips from the internet, there's so much advice, I loved this video especially. Squish, squish, flatten! After much experimentation, I decided to start with a straight stitch along the striped rows between the t-shirt blocks... well, almost straight... just the little curve of the wind in this newbie quilter's sail.
I have also managed to sew and then carefully tear out great lengths of stitching. I guess a part of me doesn't want the quilting to end. It is so good to be enveloped by this fabric of our lives.
The Return
It has been a hard, rotten kind of year. Death and broken bones and the push of time.
Pushy time, healing time, time to really stop and smell the flowers. I have come back to my Mother's garden on this anniversary of her death... my first motherless Mother's Day. The purple tulips that we laid on her casket have returned. The peonies and the poppies are lush. Spring, renewal, regrowth, and a whisper of the flower lady's eternal spirit through the cedars.

text: Egyptian PM Arrives In Gaza To Show Support For Besieged Palestinians November 16, 2012, 7:46 AM EST Egyptian Prime Minister Hesham Kandil arrived in Gaza on Friday to show solidarity with Palestinians there who have been at the center of an intensifying conflict, the New York Times reported. Kandil's trip to Gaza comes a day after Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi sharply condemned Israel's airstrikes. Israel, meanwhile, continues to absorb rocket fire from Gaza. The Times reported that Palestinian militants on Friday fired 25 rockets into southern Israel, although there were "no immediate reports of casualties."

A part of Joel on Software
The Design of Software (CLOSED)
A public forum for discussing the design of software, from the user interface to the code architecture. Now closed.
The "Design of Software" discussion group has been merged with the main Joel on Software discussion group.
The archives will remain online indefinitely.
I am a seasoned developer. have done lot of C++, MFC, Win32 also ASP, SQL, DX etc.
Haven't had a chance to learn C#. I wanted to do a small product to learn the language and .Net. I can take two routes either do WinForms App or do a ASP.Net app.
I hear a lot that WinForms is going to be obsolete. so my question is What do you guys recommend I do in order to get a good grasp of C# and .Net.
Friday, February 17, 2006
WinForms won't be "obsolete" for MANY years.
Yes, WPF is coming, but MOST existing apps won't be rewritten to use it so it is not a waste of time to learn WinForms, especially if your project is small.
Friday, February 17, 2006
Write the backend of a simple application. Say, something like a little inventory management thing or something.
Then write a desktop client for it.
Then write a web interface for it.
Heck, why not go all in and write some web services too?
Seriously though, do both. Then you will get a more encompassing feel for the framework, and the differences inherent in asp.net and winforms.
Then you can choose which path you wish to delve into deeper, if any.
cheap calls
Friday, February 17, 2006
I agree with Jared that it will be several years before WPF depricates WinForms.
However, if your purpose is merely to learn C# and upgrade your skillset, why not learn the *most* cutting edge toolset?
(The Chris Sells book is very good, BTW)
If you want to go the WinForms route, I would definitely recommend the following by Matthew MacDonald.
In the end, I have to say it doesn't really matter. The concepts are very similar between WPF and WinForms 2.0.
Ok one more question this may be dumb one.
I've Visual Studio.Net 2003 which I assume will only support .Net 1.1 framework programming.
Will that be a complete No No to start on Winforms with VS2003. Do I definitely to upgrade to VS2005 to do .net 2.0 either forms or asp.net.
Thanks for all the answers. You guys are really helpful.
Friday, February 17, 2006
For your own sanity, upgrade to .NET 2.0 and VS 2005. WinForms 1.1 can be extremely frustrating. It got a *major* overhaul in 2.0.
Note that you can use the free Visual C# Express product.
Being a seasoned Win32/MFC developer, you will find WinForms to be a breath of fresh air. You will understand it much easier than most other programmers comming to it from other technologies. If you've never done any web programming then ASP.NET will be much more difficult to grasp.
Start with WinForms. Once you've grasped it you will be able to move on to ASP.NET a little easier because you will be familiar with the .NET eventing model and control structure which is the same in both technologies.
And it is just fine to start with .NET 1.1 if you are just fooling around. Not that much has changed in WinForms in .NET 2.0. You get a lot of nice new controls in the new version but the basic programming model is very similar. If you really want to go directly to .NET 2.0, download the free versions of Visual Studio 2005 Express.

Friday, February 17, 2006
Do both VS2003 and Free VS2005 run side by side?
since I saw that the free VS2005 has no support for MFC etc.

> For your own sanity, upgrade to .NET 2.0 and VS 2005.
> WinForms 1.1 can be extremely frustrating. It got a *major* > overhaul in 2.0.
What has been changed in 2.0?
Friday, February 17, 2006
>> What has been changed in 2.0?
* The forms designer is much better. Snap-lines, etc, make it easier and quicker to layout controls. Also the new layout containers (FlowLayoutPanel, TableLayoutPanel) mean that you don't need to roll your own layout engine.
* The DataGridView and DetailsView eliminate a lot of tedious code to do database CRUD operations.
* The Properties and Settings make give you a place to write user-specific settings to out of the box.
* BackgroundWorker dramatically reduces the code needed for asynchronous processing.
* ClickOnce makes it much easier to showcase your work to clients... instead of continually pushing out new installers you can push out a webpage instead.
* DoubleBuffering. Noticably less flicker.
That's off the top of my head, there's an MSDN article on the topic here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/35f2fe4h.aspx
You *can* use VS2002/2003, but with the free Express versions out there, why would you? In my opinion it's worth the switch for the layout controls alone.
WPF = Windows Presentation Foundation = Avalon = XAML
"WinForms 1.1 can be extremely frustrating. It got a *major* overhaul in 2.0."
I barely notice the difference...the snap lines are certainly nice, but for the most part it feels like WinForms were ignored during 2005 development.
Friday, February 17, 2006
Thanks guys you've been a great help. I think I'll probably download the express version just for the sake of familiarizing with that as well.
Isn't WinForm programming more like VB 5-6 forms programming having all the events in one class for all the controls as compared to C++ where we used to have separate classes for all controls.
or like a dialog class which handles events of its controls.
for someone who asked I did a do whole website from scratch in ASP :) should've done it in C# but I was more concerned with getting my product done faster and better since I was familiar with ASP. and not C# and .Net.
thanks a lot again.
Friday, February 17, 2006
I must admit I haven't found WinForms that good, in particular the documentation is very poor.
Saturday, February 18, 2006
MSDN is decent enough as a reference documentation but you should definitely get Petzold or MacDonald to figure out how it all fits together.

December 27, 2016 22:18 ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Dec. 27, 2016) - Capstream Ventures Inc. ("Capstream" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CSP) and True Incube Co., Ltd. ("True Incube"), a subsidiary of True Corporation Public Company Limited ("True Corporation"), one of Southeast Asia's leading telecommunications, media enterprises and game publishers, have agreed to form a joint venture to establish a video game academy and development studio in Thailand. Under the terms of a joint venture and shareholders' agreement (the "JVA"), the joint venture will operate as a newly incorporated Thai company proposed to be named "True Axion Games Ltd." ("True Axion Games") with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Capstream ("Axion Interactive") holding a 49% equity interest in True Axion Games, True Incube holding a 40% equity interest in True Axion Games and Red Anchor (Thailand) Co., Ltd. ("Red Anchor"), a limited company organised and existing under Thai law, holding a 11% equity interest in True Axion Games.
Capstream has recently acquired a majority of Axion Games Limited, whose principal operating companies already make high production-value video games in Shanghai and Suzhou at a fraction of the cost of video games developed in Western markets. Capstream has planned to expand its low cost/high quality video game production capability interests to environments beyond China. True Corporation is, in the opinion of Capstream's management, the best possible partner for Capstream's next growth phase. Capstream expects the joint venture to expand its video game production interests, while at the same time improving quality and lowering development costs even further.
Axion Games is also partnered with Tencent Holdings Limited to develop and publish Rising Fire, a 500 man-year third-person shooter role playing game for the PC platform in China. Axion Games eventually expects to expand the Rising Fire intellectual property to other platforms including console and mobile as well as to other countries outside of China. Capstream has been advised that Rising Fire is testing well and is expected to launch in either Q3 or Q4 of 2017. Tencent is one of the largest video game publishers in the world and has a dominating presence in the world's largest video game market, China. Tencent recently selected Rising Fire to be Tencent's marque game in China for their 2017 line-up. Rising Fire was one of three high production value titles selected by Tencent in a vigorous screening process from among the world's most promising titles.
"I am delighted to announce this joint venture with True Corporation, a company with unparalleled reach and scale in Thailand and South East Asia," said Todd Bonner, CEO and Chairman of Capstream and founder of Axion Games. "Since founding Axion Games in 2006 our strategy has been to develop the highest quality games at the lowest possible cost structure. We believe the time is perfect for us to expand our operations in Thailand and this partnership with True Corporation brings us closer to achieving our goal of becoming one of the leading developers of AAA, multi-platform games in the world. True Corporation is determined to transform the video game industry in Southeast Asia and we believe that they have the scale, portfolio, resources and knowledge to realize this lofty ambition. We are humbled to become their partner and committed to our role in the joint venture. We thank both Thailand and True Corporation for their support."
Birathon Kasemsri Na Ayudhaya, True Corporation's Chief Content & Media Officer, said, "the partnership is one that True Corporation is proud of because we are determined to frameshift Thailand to greatness in hi-tech industries. We have searched for suitable partners and found Axion Games, of which Capstream holds a significant equity interest. We believe Axion Games to be the most capable independent developer with a proven track record of operating in emerging Asia. Thailand is a young country with a median age of 35.5 years. Video game development inspires young artists to perfect their art and young programmers to become great programmers. True Axion Games will dare them to dream and enable this catalysis. We desire to grow together and win together."

Janelle Monae attended the 2017 Vanity Fair Oscar Party on Sunday night (February 26).
The singer and now-actress wore a black Alexandre Vauthier gown from the Fall 2016 Couture collection.
Let's be honest: Janelle's Elie Saab Couture gown from the ceremony was a pretty tough act to follow, but I like this choice as the fashion dessert to that main course. It plays along to the same theme–black, voluminous skirt, highly editorial–but in a much edgier fashion.
The punk elements of the mesh sleeves and upper bodice and the brackets on the sash are a bit of a departure for the often ladylike Janelle, and she is selling me hard on the look.
Keeping her hair styled the same throughout the night only further cements the idea that her two gowns were very much two chapters in the same fashion story.
Thank you, Janelle, once again, for making fashion so much more than just a dress and some jewels.
Christian Louboutin 'Marchavekel' heels and the same Jennifer Behr headpiece from earlier in the day completed her look.

Greenland's vast ice cap, which has had expanding melting zones in recent summers, is losing far more water to the sea than it is gaining through snowfall, and is thus contributing to rising sea levels, a research team said. Writing in the journal Science, the scientists, from the University of Texas in Austin, said gravity-measuring satellites showed that 57 cubic miles of ice was being lost annually. Some glaciologists criticized facets of the analysis but said that the study and several different measurement methods confirmed the overall trend. Eric Rignot, a NASA glaciologist, said most experts now agreed that the recent warming of Greenland and the accelerated melting of its glaciers are a "warming that shows no indication of a slowdown."

At ISD, a majority of students participate in athletics as members of one or more of our sports teams. ISD follows a three-season schedule, which can be found below. Each season lasts 10 to 12 weeks. ISD coaches are generally ISD teachers with experience in coaching. Students must maintain academic eligibility to participate on a school team.
ISD Sports Seasons
|High School
|Volleyball and Swim Team
|Basketball and Track & Field (After School Activity/ASA)
|Middle School
|Soccer and Swim Team
|Volleyball and Track & Field (ASA)
|Elementary School (Grades 4 & 5)
|Basketball (ASA) and Swim Team
|Soccer (offered via Gaucher Soccer Academy at ISD) and Track & Field (this ASA is also available to Grade 3 students)
|Volleyball (ASA)
*While not a sport, WAISAL Mathcounts is another activity available to MS students during the Winter season.
High School holds practices three times per week, between 3:30pm and 6:00pm or between 7:00am and 8:15am. Games are held on weekdays and on Saturdays.
Middle School holds practices twice per week, between 3:30pm and 5:00pm. Games are held on weekdays and on Saturday mornings.
Grades 4 and 5 teams hold practices twice per week, between 3:30pm and 4:15pm (during After School Activity time). Other than Swim Team, these sports are run as After School Activities. Whenever possible, the coaches have games/meets with outside schools.
Swim team follows a different practice schedule. This is communicated to parents of swim team members at the start of the season.
Matches and Tournaments
During the season, ISD plays games against other local clubs, as well as local private and public schools. In addition to these matches, ISD organizes a one-day tournament on a Saturday for all teams during each season. ISD also attends the Sports for International Private Schools in Senegal (SIPS) Tournament at the end of February and beginning of March.
ISD belongs to the West African International Schools Activities League (WAISAL). ISD athletes participate in tournaments at the conclusion of each season (or, in some cases, ISD hosts the WAISAL event). WAISAL is open to all American and/or International schools in West Africa.

Here is the epic human drama behind the making of the five movies nominated for Best Picture in 1967 -
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner,
The Graduate,
In the Heat of the Night,
Doctor Dolittle, and
Bonnie and Clyde - and through them, the larger story of the cultural revolution that transformed Hollywood and America forever.
"A good listen - A valuable book"
When Germany invaded Poland, bombers devastated Warsaw - and the city's zoo along with it. With most of their animals dead, zookeepers Jan and Antonina Zabinski began smuggling Jews into the empty cages. Another dozen "guests" hid inside the Zabinskis' villa, emerging after dark for dinner, socializing, and, during rare moments of calm, piano concerts.
In the minds of historians and the American public alike, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was one of our greatest presidents, not least because he supposedly saved America from the Great Depression. But as historian Jim Powell reveals in this groundbreaking book, Roosevelt's New Deal policies actually prolonged and exacerbated the economic disaster.
"Very Important"
Prior to the U.S. entering WWII, a small coterie of British spies in Washington, D.C., was formed. They called themselves the Baker Street Irregulars after the band of street urchins who were the eyes and ears of Sherlock Holmes in some Arthur Conan Doyle stories.
"Spying in Washington"
Sarah Vowell's special brand of armchair history makes the bizarre and esoteric fascinatingly relevant and fun. She takes us from the modern-day reenactment of an Indian massacre to the Mohegan Sun casino, from old-timey Puritan poetry, where "righteousness" is rhymed with "wilderness," to a Mayflower-themed waterslide. Throughout,
The Wordy Shipmates is rich in historical fact, humorous insight, and social commentary by one of America's most celebrated voices.

Run – Old School Freight Train
Acoustic Disc 61
Old School Freight Train is a union of dawg musicians. For those unfamiliar with the term, David Grisman originally coined the word "dawg" to describe his sound, an acoustic blend of jazz, folk and bluegrass. Since the early 1970s, when Grisman co-founded Old and in the Way with Jerry Garcia, dawg music has remained jam-nation's closest kin in the old-time world, teaching generations of Deadheads the value of storytelling. Yet, since dawg music is still so closely associated with its founder's distinct mandolin style, it's often difficult for a young act to cultivate a unique sound. But, as evidenced on their Acoustic Disc debut Run, Old School Freight Train has found the key to escaping Grisman's shadow: standing beside him.
Recruiting Grisman as Run's producer, Old School Freight Train embraces its influence from the outset, offering a dozen dawg-inspired cuts under the mandolinist's guidance. Jumping between up-tempo instrumentals ("Lookee Here)," waltz-time ballads ("Run") and the occasional sea-shanty ("Mr. Parshif's Jig"), Old School Freight Train's sound is rooted in another era. Ignoring current musical trends, the Virginia-bred quintet offers an entirely acoustic collection of mostly original compositions, tied to the rock era mainly through a rearranged cover of Stevie Wonder's "Superstition." But, what keeps the group of young musicians current is its attitude and presence, which resets the wide-eyed energy of the best jamband in a decisively bluegrass context. Jumping between styles with youthfully robust zeal, Old School Freight Train breathes new energy into a weathered sound. Indeed, the group accomplishes tight time changes on choice numbers like "Broken Pieces" and the easily danceable "Tango Chutney."
While he appears only on the slightly Arabic-flavored "Euridice," Grisman's presence is felt throughout Run, guiding the group as it uses bluegrass instruments to engage in jazz-style improvisation. While Run is largely restrained, favoring storytelling over long-winded solos, Old School Freight Train consistently proves its chops through its instrumental passages, especially on "Tango Chutney" and through Darrell Muller's upright bass work on "Euridice." Perhaps Run's best offering, "Drama Queen," a collaboration between guitarist Jesse Harper and banjoist Ben Krakauer, is an endearing ballad, which showcases surprisingly mature lyrics. Drawing from a modern lexicon, Old School Freight Train also manages to modernize traditional dawg music by using age-old forms of storytelling to recall a post-millennium personal experience.
Boasting four songwriters, Old School Freight Train is also a union of equals, each of whom seem comfortable both as leaders and auxiliary players. Harper, who serves as the album's lead vocalist and guitarist, also provides some of the album's gentlest moments through his percussion work, while the group's three-part harmonies shine brightest on "Broken Pieces." A slow cover of Randy Newman's "Louisiana 1927" also showcases Harper's soothing vocal skills.As the de facto spokesman for dawg music, Grisman's decision to join Old School Freight Train in the studio serves as the group's ultimate validation. In his personalized liner notes Grisman says, "their finely-crafted tunes and innovative arrangements bring creativity, taste and wit to a broad spectrum of contemporary styles, as firmly rooted in many traditions." In certain respects, Grisman is dead on, capturing the group's young, hungry energy. Yet the joy of Run is that it sounds old enough, and wise enough, to be another vintage recording reissued on Grisman's homegrown Acoustic Disc imprint. And, while Grisman's approval may have initially green-lighted Old School Freight Train, this quintet is now able to run with its success.

InVentiv launches compliance/adherence business
InVentiv Health is launching a business aimed at improving patient compliance and adherence.
InVentiv Patient Outcomes, the firm's fourth business unit, will be led by Ed Mitzen, formerly of InVentiv companies CHS and Palio, who becomes president of the group.
The unit includes: The Therapeutics Institute, a corps of 300 nurse educators available to assist healthcare professionals in designing in-office patient education; Adheris, which offers pharmacy-based compliance and adherence programs; The Franklin Group, which offers reimbursement case management and patient assistance programs for patients who need financial support; and AWAC, which offers disease management support to third-party payors and physicians.
InVentiv acquired AWAC in June. Founder and CEO Dr. Rick Richards will stay on in that role, reporting to InVentiv COO Terrell Herring.
"Across InVentiv Health, most of the services we provide occur before the physician writes the prescription," said Mitzen. "InVentiv Patient Outcomes is distinct because our focus is on what happens after the prescription is written. We see a significant opportunity to partner with healthcare providers, pharmaceutical companies, pharmacists and payors to help patients get the most from their therapy and ultimately achieve better health."

Thelma's Bridal leaves bride in tearsPosted: Updated:
PHOENIX -- Rachel Gaucin has pretty much everything she needs for her wedding day next month. She has her veil, decorations, and of course, she and her fiance have their wedding rings.
"We wanted to start planning right away," Rachel told 3 On Your Side.
And part of that planning included not only picking out her wedding dress, but getting her three bridesmaids to choose dresses as well.
"It's been fun and kind of stressful at times. It's been really fun just picking out the color," Rachel said.
Rachel and her bridesmaids came to Thelma's Bridal and Tuxedos in Phoenix where they purchased four dresses for just over $700.
They made payments until everything was almost paid for in full. But when they went back to Thelma's recently, the store was closed and cleaned out.
"My heart stopped and my stomach turned," Rachel recalled.
Rachel contacted 3 On Your side, and it was discovered that many of the dress payments were checks made out to a guy named Rudy Herrera, not Thelma's Bridal.
Rudy Herrera has a Facebook page, and guess what we found? Plenty of pictures of Thelma's Bridal Store before it mysteriously closed up.
3 On Your Side also found a picture of Thelma. We tried contacting everyone we could, including calling a number on Thelma's empty store front, but no one would ever call back.
However, after 3 On Your Side's involvement, Rachel said she received a mysterious phone call from a man who refused to identify himself, but claimed he was with Thelma's Bridal and that he was mailing out the four dresses.
Rachel said that's music to her ears because her wedding is just around the corner.
"All we're asking for is our dresses back. We don't want to cause any trouble or anything. The wedding is a month away and that's all we're really asking for," she told 3 On Your Side.
Rachel and her bridesmaids are supposed to be getting their dresses any day now. 3 On Your Side will do a follow up and let you know if they did.

USA 5 – 1 Scotland
To quote a friend and fellow Scot, "Glad I didn't stay up to watch USA v Scotland.". As you no doubt know we lost 5-1. 5-1!!!
I missed it too. And am not ashamed to say it. Passed out at approximately 12.30, my body kicked in its harm-avoidence system and made sure I had no chance of suffering for the next 2 hours. The plan had been to find somewhere TV or online to watch the game. Failing that, I was going to Skype Beth, my fiance in the US, and have here turn on here telebox. Luckily that endurance was avoided.
You could argue I can't judge, but I will. USA have in recent years been the better team. They've progressed further in World Cup than we ever have. Also, they have the very capable Jurgen Klinsmann coaching them. So, it's fair to say the USA team were expected to win. But not 5-1!!!
I despair…

Are you someone who thinks that the Seafood Industry is only about boats, fish catches and a life on the ocean wave?
Well, think again...
|I knew people who worked with Albatross Seafoods and I thought the work sounded just like what I would like to do. I went to the owner of the business, gave my C.V to him and it went from there.
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|When the position was advertised, I submitted my application. From there I was successful in obtaining an interview, resulting in the position being offered to me which I accepted.
|Hugh Heraghty , Fish Farm Manager
|I got my current job when I bought my own boat; it is my own business.
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper
|My husband saw a gap in the market for selling fish in Wicklow and after two years of looking for premises, we finally found one and just went for it!
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
|I did my apprenticeship on the sister ship of the one I'm on now. The two boats are identical so I already knew the workings of the two vessels so there was a job opening here and I asked for it and got it.
|Brendan Cavanagh, Ships Engineer
|Fishing is the family business so I grew up with it.
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
|Out at sea everyday is different so each new day has it's own challenges!
|Brendan Cavanagh, Ships Engineer
|The main challenges are: - the ever tightening quotas - the increasing costs of running vessels. - finding crew - Departmental constraints
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
|I am most challenged by the need to catch fish, i.e. enough to make good wages for the crew and myself. I get fantastic job satisfaction from this. Seeing a good catch of fish coming aboard gives me great motivation, you forget any problems and seem to get energy from no-where. Other aspects of fishing would stress me more; i.e. slack, fishing boat breaking down, bad weather, bad fish prices, and some of the ridiculous rules and regulations which are in force at the moment in Ireland.
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper
|The harsh windy conditions, all the different species you get in the sea that can harm salmon i.e. Jellyfish, Zooplankton.
|Hugh Heraghty , Fish Farm Manager
|We work with all different kinds of fish, and every fish has a different bone structure. It is a challenge to have to fillet all these fish in different ways. For me this is all in a days work, but it can be challenging at times.
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|The sourcing and supply of fish is a daily challenge. We are helped in this by other people in the industry and constant contact with the market.
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
My timescales vary depending on weather, tides, etc. My boat is small so generally you get ashore at night. I can work from 5am to 6pm or from 10am to 11pm. You only work when work is to be done i.e. when you are fishing, but the more work you do and the more fish you catch then the better the money.
The pressure on me personally is high as I am responsible for finding and catching the fish. The crew have to sort, clean and stow the fish in boxes with ice. Teamwork is vital, when you have a good team the work is done far quicker, easier and the quality of the product is higher which in turn commands better prices. The biggest reward every day is the number of full boxes of fish stowed for sale. The job is never routine or boring and it changes every day.
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper
|Delegating and prioritising work to the site workers. Also a weekly plan for any tasks or jobs must be generated and completed each week. All jobs and tasks must be completed within a specified time frame.
|Hugh Heraghty , Fish Farm Manager
|There is no typical day especially when out fishing. It varies from time of year and what fish you are catching. The weather also plays a huge part.
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
|I start at 8.45 a.m sharp. I put on my uniform which entails boots, overalls, hairnet, gloves and apron. I then prepare my area of work - I wash the work top, table, etc., I then sharpen my knife, get the fish into the factory floor, fillet from bin and then put the fillets into a tray. From there the fish are weighed.
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|There are three engineers aboard here, we each do two watches in the engine room in 24 hrs, my watch starts at 12 then I finish at 4, so each watch is four hours long! Along with helping on deck when fishing and looking after refrigeration for the fish!
|Brendan Cavanagh, Ships Engineer
My husband goes to the market very early to get the fish and I bring the children to school and creche and go to the shop for 9.15am. Then I set up the counter with the fresh fish. It is hard to be creative and also set up as quickly as you can.
The day starts. I serve customers and fill in details of the fish for traceability. The customers are the biggest bonus to my day. You keep the counter looking good with your product topped up with ice and make sure everything is super clean. You can never have any bad smell in such a small shop. So hygiene is a big thing.
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
|I don�t know yet, it depends where my life goes. I am well qualified for what I�m doing currently.
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper
|Engineering Course - 3 week basic course. This gives you the essentials.
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
|I have done a number of different courses for my job. I did a Filleting Course one year ago. I also did a Forklift Course two years ago and I've have done two HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) Courses in the past few years.
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|I will be doing a fish filleting course very soon.
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
|Yes I plan to go back this year and finish off my engineering exams for the class one engineer.
|Brendan Cavanagh, Ships Engineer
|In this field it is critical to have the most up to date information available to me whether it is fish nutrition, safety, or any other area; hence I am always willing to participate in any training that may become available to me. To date I have completed over forty courses between Marine Harvest and BIM.
|Hugh Heraghty , Fish Farm Manager
|Talk to people currently in the job. Get a few days work experience. Check out the courses (through BIM)
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper
|You need to be hard working, enjoy the outdoor life regardless of the weather and must be willing to work as part of a team at all times.
|Hugh Heraghty , Fish Farm Manager
|To prepare your work place first thing in the morning would be the most important part of my job.
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|Some may think that you can go untrained into fishing. The best advice I would give people considering fishing as a profession is to get training. Fishing is an all encompassing career - when you need to go fishing, the rest of your life goes on hold unfortunately. It is very unpredictabe because you could be fishing non stop for three weeks and tied up for two.
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
|You need to work with people in the industry as knowledge is everything - where to buy, who from, when etc. Health and safety courses and a pleasant manner and drive are also important.
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
|During the summer months the ship I work on ties up because of no quota, so we get a chance to relax and try out other work for the summer months.
|Brendan Cavanagh, Ships Engineer
Fishing is a very unpredictable job. While, financially, it can be in line with other jobs, it can have a negative impact on your home life. You cannot plan holidays etc. because the fishing season is so dependent on the weather.
You could be at home for a week between trips or you could be home a couple of hours. It is hard to peruse any planned leisure activities when you cannot tell anyone when you will be at home or when you will be at sea.
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|Yes, I usually work a five day week, times can be flexible when required.
|Hugh Heraghty , Fish Farm Manager
|At the moment I have free time on Sunday and Monday, so that is great as I can spend time with my two small children. Having just started a new business that is the best I can get at the moment.
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
|Commercial fishing can be anti-social due to the long irregular hours and the irregular days that one works. The job is completely weather dependant. A motivated person can easily progress up the career ladder with great personal and relatively good financial reward. Pay is a share of the catch. The choice of going out fishing/taking time off is largely yours within reason (i.e. if you have a good understanding with your boss).
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper
|A good catch, especially when you catch more than a boat thats bigger than yours! When you�re able to fix a possibly life threatening problem out at sea, and continue fishing and you always have plenty of opportunities to do so. Fishing is continuously a test of one�s abilities, so when you are tested and come out successful, it�s good/cool.
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper
|Doing the job I enjoy. I could be filleting 10 different types of fish in the day. Knowing that you are working for a company that produces quality products, is cool.
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|Filling the boat with fish in one go.
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
I don't know what is cool about fish but the creative side of the counter and cooking suggestions give me a buzz.
My husband used to be a Chef and the ideas he comes up with are great and the customers love that.
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
|Best thing I like about my job is it can be so rewarding and we get to see alot of Europe which is quite cool!
|Brendan Cavanagh, Ships Engineer
|Having to tie the vessel up because of no quotas!
|Brendan Cavanagh, Ships Engineer
|Tearing the net and mending it. Getting no fish and therefore getting no money.
|Alan O'Neill, Fisherman
|As we are very busy through the winter months it can be very cold. We cannot have any heat on in the factory floor due to the nature of our products. This is not nice through the winter months.
|Brendan White, Fish Filleter
|The constant cleaning is mundane. At the end of a long day on your feet you have to clear the counter which is heart breaking, putting everything away which took so much time to get ready and look good. You have to clean the counter, the fridge and the floors - nothing can be left undone.
|Nicola O'Higgins, Fishmonger
|Sometimes people can be seasick, which they don't boast about and thats not cool. The anti-social aspect of the job is not cool; having to work weekends and during holidays. Sometimes cramped living/working conditions on board a boat are not great. Government rules and regulations which are making the job very hard and are forcing a lot of fishermen to go to sea in very bad weather.
|Liz O'Toole, Skipper

Kong Hwa School Primary Three Professional Learning Team used their one hour time-tabled time (TTT) to discuss the anchor tasks in their lesson plan.
The anchor tasks decided at today's meeting is:
Tom had some sweets. Jerry had 5 more sweets than Tom. Later, Tom gave 2 sweets to Jerry.
Possible questions: Who had more sweets in the end? How many more?
Key considerations in subsequent TTTs before the research lesson includes:
In using bar models, students have learn to use a bar to represent known quantities. The use of a bar to represent unknown is new to these students. Models can be used to represent comparison situation (not new) and change situation (new). The team should examine the selected tasks in the lesson so that students have ample opportunities to engage with ideas new to them.
The team should also discuss how to increase the chance of students engaging with critical ideas and behaviours that the lesson is designed for i.e. to engage with problem-solving behaviours that would eventuate in successful independent problem solving.
A week before the research lesson, I will write an entry to prepare the team as to what they should look out for in the research lesson.

After a successful run at The Public Theatre, Jeanine Tesori and Lisa Kron's musical reimagining of Fun Home is hopefully going to be ready for a Broadway debut next spring. Fun Home has already received a lot of critical acclaim; it was a Pulitzer Prize finalist and was awarded the New York Drama Critic's Circle Award for Best Musical, with Lucille Lortel acting awards going to both Michael Cerveris for Best Actor and Judy Kuhn for Outstanding Featured Actress.
Tesori and Kron are both former Tony nominees. Tesori's composing work includes Caroline, or Change and Shrek. Kron, who is also an actress, wrote In the Wake and 2.5 Minute Ride.
The musical is based on Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic, Alison Bechdel's bestselling and beloved graphic memoir. Fun Home chronicles Bechdel's childhood and youth in rural Pennsylvania, focusing largely on her complicated relationship with her closeted father as well as her sexuality and sexual orientation. Even if you're unfamiliar with Fun Home, you probably recognize Bechdel's name — the Bechdel Test — originated in her comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For.
Sam Gold directed the Off-Broadway production of Fun Home, while Beth Malone, Sydney Lucas, and Alexandra Socha played each played Alison at a different age.
Look for the musical to shake up the great white way in spring of 2015.

Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is a disease caused by the virus Varicella zoste, the same virus that triggers chickenpox. Shingles causes painful inflamed blisters to break out with eruptions appearing on parts of the back, sides, abdomen, and sometimes on the face.
Symptoms include pain and itching, prior to the appearance of a severely painful skin rash of red, fluid-filled blisters that later crust over. The rash is typically located on the trunk or face and only affects one side of the body. Pain may resolve rapidly or persist in the area of the rash for months to years after the rash disappears.
Shingles usually affects the elderly or people with compromised immune function. Nerve pain that persists after other symptoms have cleared is called postherpetic neuralgia. Although no cure exists, treatments are available to relieve the rash and nerve pain.
A few number of self-care steps may be helpful to treat shingles. Consider a topical ointment to soothe pain, applying products containing capsaicin, a substance found in cayenne peppers. The hot component of cayenne pepper, known as capsaicin, is topically used to relieve the pain of postherpetic neuralgia.
You can also try peppermint oil for topical use for postherpetic neuralgia. One case report has been published concerning an elderly woman with postherpetic neuralgia who experienced dramatic pain relief from topical application of 2 to 3 drops of peppermint oil to the affected area 3 or 4 times per day.
Additionally, homeopathic remedies are often very helpful for pain relief and recovery. The following homeopathic substances may help treating rashes: arsenicum album, apis mellifica, clematix, iris versicolor, mezereum, ranunculus bulbosus, and rhus toxicodendron. Although homeopathic remedies are generally not known to cause serious side effects, discuss any new treatment program with your healthcare practitioner.
