New Zealand's No 1 golfer Danny Lee is off the pace after round one of the Wyndham Championship on the PGA Tour.
The former US Amateur Champion has carded a one-over par 71 at the Sedgefield Country Club in North Carolina to be in a share of 100th place.

Lee, who is projected to drop to 161 on the Fed Ex Cup Standings, needs to climb 36 places to finish inside the top 125 and qualify for the first Fed Ex Playoff Event the Barclays on August 23-26.
He got off to a good start to the first round with two birdies on holes four and five only to drop back to even par with two bogeys before the turn.
He lost his way early on the back nine when he made two double bogeys in succession on 10 and 11 to drop back to four-over par.
The former New Zealand Eisenhower rep rallied well with four birdies in five holes on the back nine to get back to even par before bogeying the 18th to sign for a 71.
Meanwhile, on the web.com Tour, formerly the Nationwide Tour, Hamilton professional Steve Alker has shot a three-under 68 to be tied 10th at the Midwest Classic in Kansas.
Alker, who finished tied 19th at the Open Championship at Royal Lytham & St Annes this year, had three birdies in a bogey free round to be only three shots off the lead.
Manawatu professional Tim Wilkinson has played 13 holes and was also three-under par before play was suspended due to darkness and will resume tomorrow.
Americans Aaron Watkins and Jason Gore share the first round lead after opening with six-under par 66s respectively.
Wilkinson and Alker are currently 66th and 83rd on the web.com Tour Money List respectively and need to finish in the top 25 to automatically qualify for the PGA Tour in 2013.
On the Japan Golf Tour, Auckland professional Richard Lee has shot a one-under par 70 at the Kansai Open Golf Championship to be in a share of 26th place.

Kendra Wilkinson's a Playboy cover girl once again, but she didn't break her no-nude-shots pledge to her hubby to do it.
Wilkinson, formerly one-third of Hugh Hefner's troika of blonde "Girls Next Door" gal pals and current star of her own E! reality series "Kendra," graces the cover of the men's magazine's December issue and a steamy nude pictorial inside, but she reminded us that the photos were taken before she told her NFL star husband Hank Baskett he's the only one who'd be seeing her naked for the foreseeable future.
"I'm very happy and very honored to be on the cover from the old pictures," Wilkinson told Popcorn Biz while greeting fans at a promotion the body-toning supplement Abdominal Cuts in Santa Monica, adding that Baskett was thrilled with the layout. "He was like, 'I'm so proud of you! It looks so good!' – even though that's so long ago."
The cover girl's not saying no to au natural shots forever (Hef remains one of her close friend and mentor). "I can't lock the door on that yet, but I'm saying no to that now because I'm where I need to be in my life. It's not the time in my life right now to do it. It's just something that doesn't fit in right now."
Wilkinson's been open about her weight struggles since becoming a mother a year ago, but said she's closer than ever to her Playboy-era curves. "I can't say that I'm officially back, but I'm getting there," she laughed. "And let me tell you: it's been hard! These past twelve months it's been very difficult for me to lose the weight, and finally these last two months it's been kicking back into gear." She credited Ab Cuts for put her metabolism back on toning track without the shakiness associated with similar supplements.
Now that she's got her body-confidence back she says she'll be showing off at least a little skin again. "I've been doing a couple of photo shoots, but not Playboy. You'll be seeing them pretty soon – and my bikini body."

The Steam version of brutal platformer Super Meat Boy has been infested with Half-Life Headcrabs, the latest addition to the list of playable cameos in Team Meat's guest star-rich video game.
The alien spawn that makes men into zombies in Valve's Half-Life series replaces Gish as the first unlockable character in the Steam version of Super Meat Boy, set for release on PC later this month. Gamers not on board the Steam train can still buy the PC version elsewhere, but they'll get a Goo Ball from 2D Boy's World of Goo instead.
Finally, as a reminder, the Xbox Live Arcade version of Super Meat Boy is still 800 Microsoft Points, a deal that expires this week. Either hurry up or wait for the PC release, which will be on sale during its pre-order period.
You've got Headcrabs! [Team Meat]

Gaming meet.
Last Friday of every month (unless I have to change it due to a convention, and I'll let everyone know in advance). Hang out with furs and non-furs, and browse an expansive collection of console titles (and moderately less card/tabletop games). Typically we play Rock Band, Magic: the Gathering, Rocksmith and a ton of console games ranging from NES through current gen. You're welcome to bring whatever other games/consoles you want, I can make some space for it or find a TV for you to run it on, or I can share my inventory list in case I already have it.
RSVP isn't required, and the $5 door charge goes toward snacks and drinks. At some point in the evening we usually do a food run, which is not included in the cover. The cover is appreciated and is used to purchase more games. If you have any requests, let me know and I'll look out for them (or just order them if they're not too expensive). The meet typically runs all night, usually until 2 or 3am, or whenever the last card games finish.
Please leave the fursuits at home. Tails/ears are fine, but we don't have the space for tails and blind spots. Advance warning for anyone with cat allergies. Please be considerate of/courteous to others, and good hygiene is appreciated/expected. If you're not from the area and need to crash, please arrange this with me in advance. We have plenty of parking, but in case it rains, grass parking may be limited. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but absolutely not to be shared with anyone under 21, and any alcohol-related issues will not be tolerated.
If you have any questions, or would like to be added to our Telegram chat, contact me @MiltoniusPrime

CONFIRMED! We FINALLY Know The Premiere Date Of Robert Pattinson's New Film, 'Water For Elephants'!
Rob's new movie has a release date of April 15, 2011 – which means we get to see R-Patz on the big screen SOON!
Are you ready for double doses of Robert Pattinson next year, HollywoodLifers? The British hottie will be releasing not one, but two films. YAY!
A rep for Rob's new flick, Water For Elephants, tells HollywoodLife.com that – as of now – the film is slated for an April 15, 2011 premiere. Breaking Dawn, the fourth film in the Twilight Saga, will be released later in the year on November 18; it was also just announced that Breaking Dawn II would hit movie screens Nov. 16 2012.
Elephants, which also co-stars Reese Witherspoon and Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz, is already generating early Oscar buzz for R-Patz. The 24-year-old actor plays Depression-era veterinarian Jacob Jankowski who joins the circus and falls in love both with Reese's married performer, Marlena, and Rosie, an elephant.
We can't wait! Can you?

Training & Education
The PAWS Wildlife Center is more than just a rehabilitation center and wildlife hospital. It is also a place where future generations of wildlife rehabilitators and veterinarians learn the skills they will need to be successful in their careers. By actively training and educating others, the impact of PAWS' work on wildlife extends far beyond our center's boundaries.
For students
Every year, 20 or more students from across the United States and around the world come to PAWS to participate in our three-month wildlife rehabilitation internship, our two- to four-week veterinary technician externship, or our four-week veterinary externship. During their time at our facility, these students receive expert guidance and hands-on training from our experienced staff.
In addition, PAWS' wildlife staff give presentations at local veterinary and technical colleges to familiarize the students with the fields of wildlife rehabilitation and wildlife medicine as a career option.
For professionals
Researchers, veterinarians and other wildlife professionals have come from as far away as Russia, China, Japan and India to observe our rehabilitation methods and procedures. They return to their communities with ideas and knowledge obtained at PAWS that can then be adapted to help their own native wildlife populations.
In addition to in-house teaching and training, PAWS staff members regularly participate in local, national, and international symposia, sharing their knowledge with a broad range of professionals in wildlife and related fields.
For the public
PAWS staff and volunteers also frequently participate in wildlife fairs and other local events, giving presentations, distributing literature and speaking with members of the public one-on-one to answer their wildlife-related questions.

The funding for this project was provided by a bequest from William Manchester.
William Manchester was a well-known figure on the Wesleyan University campus for more than forty years, serving first as an editor of university publications, then as a fellow of the Center of Advanced Studies, later as adjunct professor of history and a writer-in-residence, and, finally, as adjunct professor emeritus. After enjoying modest success writing fiction and nonfiction books in the 1950s, he suddenly rose to national prominence in 1964 when Jacqueline Kennedy selected him to write the authorized account of John F. Kennedy's assassination. Two years later, she sued him to prevent the publication of
William Raymond Manchester Jr. was born in Attleboro, Massachusetts on April 1, 1922. His parentage bridged the Mason-Dixon Line; his mother's family was from Virginia, his father's family from Massachusetts. They met when his father was recuperating in Norfolk from disabling wounds sustained as a marine during the First World War. In spite of physical handicaps, the senior Manchester was an independent and capable man who became the Western Massachusetts supervisor of public welfare. The father's expectations had a lasting influence on his eldest son. Manchester Jr. had one brother, Robert, fourteen years younger.
Manchester started school in Attleboro, Massachusetts, continuing in Springfield, Massachusetts after the family moved there. Although not physically strong, he was an active Boy Scout, attaining the rank of Eagle Scout. He attended Springfield Classical High School, where he was active in drama. A natural leader, he directed plays and also acted in them. His writing skills were already evident in his re-working of a play by de Maupassant,
In the summer of 1942, after his sophomore year, Manchester enlisted in the Marines, perhaps as a tribute to his father. His reserve status allowed him to complete his third year of college, but at the end of this time, in July, 1943, he was sent to Dartmouth College for training in the newly-created V-12 program. This program allowed recruits to continue their education while creating a pool of potential officers for the Navy and Marines. (Wesleyan also hosted a V-12 program at that time.) Manchester's program was completed in November, 1943. From New Hampshire, he went to Parris Island, South Carolina, for boot camp; Quantico, Virginia, for officer candidate school (he was never commissioned); and then to Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, for an advanced combat intelligence course.
On August 1, 1944, he was shipped out to the Pacific Ocean island of Guadalcanal,
where he endured eight more months of training in tropical jungle conditions. On
April 1, 1945—-his twenty-third birthday-—he was sent to Okinawa. For the next two
months, he witnessed war at its worst. His unit was part of the force that took
Sugar Loaf Hill at the end of May. Shortly after that, he was lightly wounded and
hospitalized but quickly left the hospital to rejoin his unit. His war journal was
eerily predictive. He wrote about how much he looked forward to being back, and yet,
Pursuing his interest in journalism, he took a job as a copy boy at
The end of college is often a time of false starts and uncertainty. Manchester applied to the school of journalism at Columbia University but was denied admission. He also became engaged to Elinor Palmer, although no wedding date was set. They were never married. Two years later, on March 27, 1948, he married Julia Brown Marshall, to whom he was married for fifty years.
Manchester was accepted in the journalism program at the University of Missouri and moved to Columbia, Missouri, to begin the one-year program. He graduated with a master of journalism degree on August 29, 1947. His thesis was titled,
Manchester's skills as a reporter and a writer led to a series in 1951 on the state of Baltimore's hospitals. Health care was a topic that had interested Manchester since his
Manchester continued southeast, covering Burma, Thailand, and Southeast Asia in June. In July, he was taken ill. He received medical care in India but eventually was instructed to come home at the end of the month. He received many letters of sympathy on his illness and congratulations on his excellent reporting. His pieces from this trip were reprinted in the booklet
Back in the United States, Manchester recuperated during the fall of 1953 and spring of 1954, continued as a reporter for
In the summer of 1955, Manchester was hired by American Education Publications (AEP) to be assistant managing editor of high school periodicals for the Department of School Services and Publications. Wesleyan had acquired AEP, publisher of

Appropriately enough, Manchester's first book was devoted to the life of a writer.
Manchester then shifted to fiction, writing four novels in eight years that relied heavily on his real-life experiences.
Also in the 1950s, while a full-time employee of the Baltimore
A series of articles on the Rockefellers led to his 1959 book
Kennedy's assassination in Dallas on November 22, 1963, changed all that. In early 1964, JFK's widow, Jacqueline Kennedy, decided that an authorized version of the events surrounding her husband's death should be written. Remembering her husband's appreciation for
Instead, in March, he headed for Washington, D.C. for meetings to discuss the new book with John F. Kennedy's brother, Robert. The two reached an agreement covering the scope of the project. No one wished to profit from the national tragedy—Manchester agreed to limit his share of royalties to no more than $40,000 for the book, with the remainder of the profits going to the formation of a Kennedy presidential library. The publisher, Harper & Row, agreed to take only necessary expenses.
Manchester would be granted exclusive access to the Kennedy family, which encouraged all parties to participate in Manchester's research. Robert F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy would have the right to review the book for publication, which, at that time, was scheduled for 1968, five years after the President was killed. On March 29, 1964, Robert Kennedy released an official announcement, and Manchester immediately embarked on gathering research on what would become The Death of a President.
Manchester left no stone unturned and amassed thousands of pages of research
materials. He conducted hundreds of interviews, including sessions with Jacqueline
Kennedy and Robert Kennedy.
By March, 1966, Manchester had completed a 1,200-page draft. It was, for him, a gut-wrenching experience, but he was proud of his work. He wrote letters to Robert Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy informing them that he had finally finished. Then, he packed an original and four carbon copies of the manuscript in a suitcase, took a bus to New York City, and personally delivered them to his agent and RFK's office. Robert Kennedy designated two of his close advisors, Edwin Guthman and John Seigenthaler, as reviewers of the manuscript. Harper's editor, Evan Thomas, read a copy. Manchester also sent a copy to Arthur Schlesinger, who had served President Kennedy. Through the spring and early summer of 1966, manuscript drafts criss-crossed the country. Many cuts were suggested to meet a variety of concerns represented by the different viewpoints of the reviewers.
Manchester began to grow concerned that final agreement would be difficult to reach, and he feared Robert Kennedy might delay approval of publication. Manchester pressed RFK to send definitive word that the publication would go forward, and it finally arrived in the form of a telegram on July 29. At the same time, a draft was agreed upon, and with things apparently buttoned up, the manuscript went out to a half dozen magazines that had expressed interest in serialization. A bidding war developed between
Up until this point, Jacqueline Kennedy had been a willing, if distant, participant in the process, but the announcement of the
This was a real surprise to Manchester, his editor, his agent, Robert Kennedy, and RFK's advisors. Richard Goodwin, another former President Kennedy man, was brought in as Mrs. Kennedy's representative, and he and Manchester attempted to appease Mrs. Kennedy. It was not until the three met in Hyannis Port in early September that Manchester realized how Mrs. Kennedy truly felt about the serialization. Nonetheless, through September and October, 1966, the parties dug in:
The tortuous work on the book and serialization continued into November. Galleys from Harper and
Still, Jacqueline Kennedy and her attorneys sent letters stating that her approval had not been forthcoming, which was required for publication, and without it, nothing could be published. Mrs. Kennedy asserted that certain passages relating to her and her children were simply too personal. Among them, subsequently detailed by a
The parties were unable to reach an accommodation. On December 16, 1966, Mrs. Kennedy filed a lawsuit to prevent the publication of the book she had asked be written. This was a huge story, and Manchester was now a real, if reluctant, celebrity. Headlines updated each new event in the saga.
In the end, the suit was resolved rather simply: Mrs. Kennedy came up with a list of items she wanted removed from the book, and Manchester complied, indicating that while the material was interesting, it was inconsequential to his historical narrative and amounted to a very small portion of the text. On January 16, 1967, a settlement was reached. Further, final edits were made;
Within a year,
As one might imagine, there was much discussion about who won and lost the battle of the book. Polls indicated that Mrs. Kennedy's image had suffered. Some pundits agreed with Manchester, who felt that he had withstood an attack on his integrity and that of his book. Others felt he had caved in to pressure. Books were quickly published that chronicled the event. But what is clear is that a vast reading public had finally discovered Manchester's work, and from then on, it eagerly turned each of his subsequent books into best sellers.
The settlement agreement signed among Manchester, his publishers, and Mrs. Kennedy ordered that all of Manchester's writing related to the book, the interviews with Mrs. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, and certain other materials must be sealed for a period of 100 years from January 16, 1967. However, a good deal of the
Manchester would return to writing about John F. Kennedy in the course of his career. In 1975, he published a collection of magazine articles with a new, seventy-page essay called,
Manchester unapologetically carried his devotion to JFK throughout his later life. In 1968, he worked for Robert Kennedy's presidential campaign. That same year, it was announced that

In September, 1962, Manchester wrote to Harry Scions of

Writing extensively about the war in the Pacific led Manchester to an interest in
re-visiting his own past there. In a letter to his agent, in 1978 he wrote,
Manchester began work on his next project,
For the next eight years he struggled in declining health to complete
The last book that Manchester published had nothing to do with Churchill or even the twentieth century. It was a slim volume about the Middle Ages titled
By any measure, the life of William Manchester was a rich and creative one. He wrote eighteen books, many of them best sellers, several of them translated into multiple languages. He wrote countless magazine articles and was much sought after as a speaker and literary expert. He traveled the world and met powerful and interesting people. He received a Guggenheim fellowship and was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize. He was awarded six honorary doctorates, including one from Wesleyan in May, 2002. Wesleyan was his home for more than forty years. He was a writer in residence, a member of the history department faculty, and an avid supporter of Olin Memorial Library. It was a successful partnership.
As much as possible, the original folder titles have been maintained. In the container list below, these titles have been transcribed as accurately as possible. There is not a distinction made between the original folder titles and those provided by the processors.
Papers related to each of Manchester's 18 books are listed alphabetically in the subseries, Books. Generally, the papers contain correspondence, research and reference materials, manuscript drafts, a fair copy (which Manchester referred to as his first typed clean copy, although there were often drafts which followed the fair copy), a setting copy, galleys, publicity materials, and occasionally fan mail. All other writings of Manchester, including articles, short stories, unpublished or unrealized projects, and dramas, are listed alphabetically in the subseries, Other writings.

I create fine art street life photographs from scenes that I come across with my Leica camera in New York City on a daily basis.
What is street photography? A reflection of every day life – real, unaltered impressions of public places, places that everybody visits every day, the street where you live, the parking lot of your favorite grocery store, the subway. Street photographers document the truth – take candid pictures of things that you don't notice in your daily grind.

The 21-year-old Hofstra student who was killed during a Long Island home invasion was shot dead by a police officer as the gunman had her in a headlock and was trying to drag her out of the house, officials said Saturday.
Nassau County Police said at a news conference Andrea Rebello was killed by police, not by the armed gunman who was trying to rob the off-campus house where she was living with her twin sister, Jessica, and several others.
Rebello, a Hofstra junior studying public relations, and suspect Dalton Smith, 30, were both shot and killed as he was trying to back away from police with a gun to her head, police said.
An officer fired eight rounds, seven of which hit the suspect and one that hit Rebello in the head, police said.
Police said the officer that fired the fatal shots is a former NYPD cop who has been with the Nassau department for 12 years.
Police said Smith had gotten into the house through a front door that was left open. He forced three women and a man who lived in the home upstairs at gunpoint to get money and jewelry.
They did not have a lot of money at the home, and Smith told one of the women to go withdraw money from the bank, threatening that he would kill one of her friends if she didn't return in eight minutes, according to police.
She called 911 as she drove to the bank and did not return to the home.
Police responded shortly after the 911 call. When they arrived, Smith told one of the hostages, the twin sister of the woman who was later shot, to go downstairs and tell police everything was OK. When she opened the door, she ran out and told officers there was a man with a gun.
Police said two officers then entered the house and went up a narrow staircase. At that point, one of the officers saw Smith with Rebello in a headlock, and Smith pointed a gun at the officer.
The officer then fired the fatal shots, police said.
Smith was released on parole in February after serving time for first-degree robbery and has a lengthy criminal record that includes assault, police said. A warrant for his arrest was issued last month for parole violation.
Police identified the gunman through fingerprint analysis.
On Saturday evening, flags at the Hofstra campus were at half-staff and students held a silent outdoor vigil in front of a photo of Rebello. Surrounded by candles and flowers, they sang "Ave Maria."
She was also honored during Sunday's graduation ceremony with students wearing white ribbons.
Andrea Rebello and her sister were 2010 graduates of Sleepy Hollow High School, according to principal Carol Conklin-Spillane.
"They were smart happy beautiful young women," Conklin-Spillane said. "I speak about them together because they were very much a matched pair. They were best friends by choice."
Rebello's funeral is scheduled for Wednesday in Sleepy Hollow

Washington, DC - U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) officially opened a new, state of the art, facility for OPM's Veterans Employment Program Office (VEPO). The VEPO is dedicated to assisting veterans, transitioning service members, and military family members who are seeking employment at OPM. The opening of this office comes in response to Executive Order (EO) 13518 which established the Veterans Employment Initiative. To support the initiative, the EO required 24 agencies, including all Cabinet-level agencies and select Independent agencies, to establish a VEPO to enhance employment opportunities for veterans.
"Employing veterans in the Federal government is very important to the Obama Administration and to me personally," said OPM Director John Berry. "We've made substantial progress, but have only begun to move the needle. OPM's VEPO will undoubtedly help some of these veterans find employment here in OPM or elsewhere in the Federal government. We will not rest until all of them have the opportunity to match up their skills to our jobs, apply, and get the consideration they've earned."
In March 2010, VEPOs were established and operational in OPM and 23 other agencies, as required by EO 13518. Today, OPM's VEPO officially moved to its new facility. The goal of OPM's VEPO is to match veterans with jobs within OPM and support Government-wide efforts to improve employment opportunities for veterans.
The OPM VEPO team will provide assistance to veterans who are seeking help with Federal resume building, military to civilian skills translation, and counseling on navigating USAJOBS.gov. The office also will answer questions involving veterans' preference and special appointing authorities to provide a better understanding of how these mechanisms facilitate the hiring process. If a transitioning service member visits any Federal agency, the agency VEPO acts as their point of contact. The 24 agency VEPOs work together to refer resumes from transitioning service members and spouses that are good fits for open positions within individual agencies.
The VEPO office space was planned and designed to provide a full range of support to veterans, including those with a disability. The office is equipped with special assistive technology for veterans with visual or hearing disabilities and all computer stations are wheelchair compatible with adjustable keyboards.
The OPM VEPO is open from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The office is located on the first floor of OPM's Theodore Roosevelt building at 1900 E St., NW, Washington, DC, 20415.
OPM leads and serves the Federal Government in enterprise human resources management by delivering policies and services to achieve a trusted, effective civilian workforce. By Empowering Excellence in Government through Great People, we provide leadership and support to U.S. agencies on issues including human resources policy and oversight, background investigations, federal employee benefits, retirement services, guidance on labor-management relations, and programs to improve workforce performance. For more information, visit OPM.gov or follow OPM on Twitter, Facebook, or LinkedIn.

How can you tell the difference between the versions? My guy is pretty old and probably a V1. The arbotix board is the original with the large chip, not the "M" version.
I just looked up some images, i am sure mine is a V1, and thats probably the problem. My servos mount together back to back and the V2 servos mount to brackets so the servos face the same direction, this is mine.

IMO the reason they are trying to rush into a settlement today, rather than later, is because there is a new Ticking Time Bomb that is about to explode that will most likely cost these banksters in the 100's of billions. So taking baby steps this settlement won't harm them as much as the next robo-signing scandal will and they want this out of the way long before the next scheme plays in a court room near you.
Pity Shaun Donovan. The much beset upon Housing and Urban Development secretary has the thankless task of facilitating that long sought after agreement between the state attorneys general and the banks, the one that would finally put that nasty robo-signing scandal behind us. Long anticipated, it was supposed to be signed by Christmas (not).

Is anyone aware of a GIS application that an ordinary person with no GIS expertise could readily download and use? By way of analogy, the average Joe cannot download and immediately benefit from AutoCAD - it costs too much and the learning curve is steep. However, many people benefit from Google SketchUp, which is free, easy to learn, and powerful.
Let me throw out a hypothetical example: I own a small lawn care company. I want to maintain a geographic database of my clients about town. This way I could quickly print a map of clients whose lawns are due for service this week, and perhaps even generate the best route and sequence for servicing them. (CMS+LBS)
Another hypothetical example: I manage building maintenance for an office park. I want to log service requests by location, type, and severity; and generate a map of hot spots. (cluster analysis)
Wrap-up: Thanks for all the great suggestions. It looks like the offerings out there generally fall in one of three categories: "ArcGIS alternative," "ArcGIS lite," or "web-based mapping." The Google offerings are most promising in terms of accessibility, price, and ease of use. Google Earth, Google Maps (esp. My Maps), and Google Fusion Tables are all exciting.

Clark: "What was I supposed to do let them die?"Jonathan: "...Maybe"
Remember, it's a reboot... not really the Sup's we grew up with.
Quote from: DSJ on June 17, 2013, 01:47 PMRemember, it's a reboot... not really the Sup's we grew up with.This is a horse<bleep> cop out excuse. This is not tied to the movies we saw when we were young, and I'm OK with that. BUT they are tied to decades of Superman lore since the movie is called Supe... oh wait...I think I am more bothered that he was ABLE to do it rather than him doing it. Also, which blockbuster genre film tidies things up with a "singularity"? Hint: it isn't Star Trek.
The author of that must not have seen Superman 2. In that film, Superman crushes a Zod's hand (who is now "mortal" at this point) and throws him against the wall and to his eventual death in the FoS - all while smiling and wisecracking. Zod and Co. in Superman 2 no longer posed an imminent threat. Did we think any less of Superman?
Someone did mention that the reaction moments after killing Zod was light hearted, which does feel like a missed opportunity to show some remorse for the loss of life. I think this is the kind of thing that directors forget these days - taking 60 seconds to show some human reaction and emotion. One of my favorite scenes in Star Wars is when Luke is yearning to live his own life and sulks off to watch the horizon as the twin suns are setting. No words, no crazy CGI - just that honest sense of heart ache that everyone in the audience can relate to. It's too bad that scenes like that have lost their place in the big budget action world.
If handled better, then Superman having to kill, and worse, kill his last "countryman" it could have led to some interesting stuff for the sequel. With this, the fallout was barely dealt with.
In the MoS, Superman is clearly distraught after he kills Zod... screaming "No" from his knees.
Or did he? remember the capsules on the sentry ship? One crew member was dead inside the other capsule was open and empty.... Could there be another Kryptonian among us?

"Russian investigators are at last making some progress in Anna Politkovskaya's murder inquiry," said CPJ Deputy Director Robert Mahoney. "They should now build on this and broaden their investigation and apprehend all those behind this murder, including the masterminds."
The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, the agency tasked with solving Politkovskaya's murder, said an unidentified person contracted with Gaitukayev in July 2006 to kill Politkovskaya. Gaitukayev, the committee said in a statement, formed a gang that included his nephews--brothers Rustam, Dzhabrail, and Ibragim Makhmudov--along with Pavlyuchenkov and Sergei Khadzhikurbanov, a former police officer with the Moscow Directorate for Combating Organized Crime.
The agency said that Pavlyuchenkov--then head of surveillance at Moscow's Main Internal Affairs Directorate--ordered his subordinates to follow the journalist to identify her schedule and commuting routes, and then shared the information with the other members of the gang. The colonel also passed the murder weapon from Gaitukayev to the suspected gunman, Rustam Makhmudov, the agency said. Russian authorities arrested Pavlyuchenkov on August 24.
Gaitukayev is currently serving a lengthy jail term on unrelated charges of attempted murder, according to the BBC Russian service. Rustam Makhmudov was arrested on May 31 and indicted in early June. Ibragim and Dzhabrail Makhmudov--previously arrested in connection to the Politkovskaya murder--were acquitted by a jury in February 2009. Khadzhikurbanov, who was acquitted along with the Makhmudov brothers, was arrested in April 2009 on unrelated extortion charges and is currently serving a jail term, local press reports said.
Although the Investigative Committee announced that the probe into the Politkovskaya murder was ongoing, it did not say whether investigators plan to bring charges against Gaitukayev.
Politkovskaya, a special correspondent for the Moscow-based triweekly Novaya Gazeta, was well known for her investigative reports on human rights abuses in Chechnya--stories that led to multiple threats on her life. In her seven years covering the second Chechen war, the journalist's reporting repeatedly drew the wrath of Russian authorities. She was threatened, jailed, forced into exile, and poisoned during her career, CPJ research shows. On October 7, 2006, a man in a baseball cap shot her dead in the elevator of her Moscow apartment house.

"Downton Abbey" Returns for a Fourth Season
24 million Americans tuned in for the third season of the British drama, making it the highest-rated PBS drama of all time. Needless to say those millions of fans are breathlessly awaiting "Downton Abbey's" return in early January. Can Robert Crawley, the Earl of Grantham continue to maintain control of his vast estate in a rapidly changing, post-World War I world? Will Lady Mary ever recover from the grief of losing her husband? And could the Dowager Countess become any more caustic? When it comes to the latter question, our most fervent hope is, yes! (Jan. 5 on PBS)
U.S. & World
Angelina Jolie as one of the most infamous storybook witches ever created? Count us in. Disney revisits the world of "Sleeping Beauty," though in this fable the action centers around the untold story of the woman who will ultimately condemn the beauty of the 1959 animated classic to a life of eternal slumber. Elle Fanning stars as the Princess Aurora, but if the early trailers are indication, the film belongs to Jolie in all her elegantly-horned wickedness. (In theaters May 30, 2014)
2014 Sochi Olympics
The biggest Winter Olympics in history, set to take place in the world's biggest country (Russia) will receive the most US coverage in Winter Games history. NBC will present more than 1,539 hours of coverage across NBC, NBCSN, MSNBC, CNBC, USA Network and NBCOlympics.com.NBC's coverage begins in primetime on Thursday, Feb. 6 at 8 p.m. and continues up until the closing ceremony on Sunday Feb. 23. Primetime coverage will include the opening and closing ceremonies, figure skating, short track, alpine skiing and freestyle snowboarding.
A New "Doctor Who"
Fans of the venerable British science fiction series were saddened in 2013 when it was announced Matt Smith (the youngest ever actor to play the titular Time Lord) would be leaving "Doctor Who" after three years. That anguish was allayed when news broke that Scottish thespian Peter Capaldi would become the thirteenth Doctor during the annual Christmas special that aired on Dec. 25. How Capaldi will interpret the 900-plus year old Doctor remains to be seen, but as the last 50 years has proved, fans will continue to support the series as long as the Doctor continues to fight evil across the galaxies. (Return date to be advised)
Sequels and Prequels Dominate
Wondering what else you'll be seeing at the movies in 2014? Chances are high that a few films you choose will feature actors reinhabiting characters for a second or third time. Sequels and prequels slated to hit theaters next year include "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1," "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," "X-Men: Days of Future Past," "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes," "Transformers 4," "How to Train Your Dragon 2," "Expendables 3," "The Amazing Spider-Man 2," "Muppets Most Wanted," "Sin City 2," "300: Rise of an Empire," "The Hobbit: There and Back Again," "Dumb and Dumber To" and "22 Jump Street."
"Believe" on NBC
From executive producers Alfonso Cuaron ("Gravity") and J.J. Abrams ("Star Trek," the upcoming "Star Wars 7"), this science fiction/fantasy series with X-Men overtones centers around Bo, an orphaned girl with special gifts - telekinesis, levitation, the ability to control nature. At the age of 10 Bo's powers begin to amplify and she requires a full-time protector. Only problem is the best person for the job is currently on death row, and has no interest in the job. Until they break him out of prison. (Air date to be advised)
"True Blood" Finale
Season seven of the weekly HBO series based on The Southern Vampire Mysteries series of novels created by Charlaine Harris will be the last. Based on the premise that vampires and other supernatural creatures live among us, "True Blood" revolves around Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), a telepathic human-fairy hybrid known as a halfling. To go into all the character developments, deaths, possessions, murders and scenes featuring a half-naked Joe Manganiello as the werewolf Alcide over the past seven years would take more space than allotted here. So let's just get ready for the end and say: Fangs for the memories! (Season begins Jun. 1 on HBO)
Biblical Epics
In 2013 reality TV kingpin mark Burnett and The History Channel showed how popular religious programming could be with their 10-episode series based on the Bible, the first installment of which drew more than 13 million viewers. A sequel to that series, "AD," has been given the greenlight and will air on NBC when it debuts, most likely in the spring of 2015. Those needing a bible story fix in the interim need only head to the local cineplex where Russell Crowe will build an ark as "Noah" (Mar. 8) and Ridley Scott will direct Christian Bale as Moses in "Exodus" (Dec. 12).
Reboots Continue to Roll Out
For every audience draw like "The Amazing Spider-Man," there's a "Lone Ranger" languishing at the bottom of the box office. Regardless, reboots continue to roll out in 2014 with new versions of "Robocop," "Godzilla," "Hercules," "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," "Annie," "I, Frankenstein" and "Dracula Untold" all scheduled to bow in theaters. Also getting an origins makeover is the Tom Clancy character Jack Ryan, embodied this time around by actor Chris Pine in "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit" (Jan. 17).
"House of Cards" Season 2 - In Ultra HD, No Less!
Netflix changed the viewing landscape when they began streaming their original series and made the entire season available for subscribers to view on day one. "House of Cards," the Emmy-winning political thriller starring Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright as a power-hungry pair of DC denizens, returns Feb. 14. Adding yet another bow to their quiver, Netflix announced the new season will be available in 4K Ultra HD on select Internet TVs. While Ultra HD screens are still a rarity in most homes, adding highly-anticipated content such as "House of Cards" can only promote and generate interest in the high-res format, say execs at Netflix. Ultra HD provides resolution four times that of full HD 1080p. Evil has never looked so good! Whoops, scratch that and reread "Maleficent," above.

In Search of the Novel: Workshops
Workshop 5
Why Do I Have to Read This Book?
The qualities of the ten novels chosen are explored to see why they appear on recommended reading lists and what makes them award winners. The program also looks at the essential elements of good writing and storytelling.
Goals and Objectives
Upon completion of this workshop lesson, teachers will be able to:
- Help students take personal pleasure in reading assigned novels.
- Help students recognize why great novels can enlarge their lives.
- Design a lesson plan that gives students the tools and the encouragement for becoming lifetime readers of great literature.
Participants Comments and Observations
Teacher: With more emphasis on test scores and reading and there are more prescribed texts coming our way, you may or may not like the choices, but you have to teach them. Ive always found the only thing that ever really seems to work for me is if I like the book. That makes it that much easier to present it to the kids, and the books themselves have to be kid-friendly.
Daniel Keyes: When I was young I read everything...I mean, I didnt go anywhere without something to read. So, Hemingway, Faulkner, these, these are my teachers. I mean I learned from Hemingway to tighten up, to cut those, cut down to the bone. To shape the page as one editor taught me that I worked for and let everything that would, would not, everything that wasnt necessary had to fall out. So it was that bare, tight prose. And then I read Faulkner and I read one sentence that went on for eighteen pages: metaphoric, loose, flowing. I said, "Wait a minute, Hemingway doesnt have the whole answer, Faulkner." So somewhere in between was the answer and I read them. And then I read W. Somerset, who was an eye doctor who failed. So, while the patients didnt show up at his office he was, he was starting to write. Uh, Maugham then became a ships doctor but he describes in the summing up how he used to go to the library and copy out pages of other authors that he admired. Just copy them to get a sense of style. And I said, "Thats an interesting idea. If Maugham can do it, so can I." So I started doing the same thing. Imitation is the way we learn as children. Well, I imitated the writers I admired: Hemingway, Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Maugham. Ultimately, of course, I knew that I would drop those and find my own style. But I learned to get a feeling for words, for language, for flow, and when I taught writing I shocked a lot of people by saying, "Begin by imitating writers whose work you admire. Eventually youll leave them behind and find your own, but at least youll get a leg up."
Arthur Golden: Great Expectations is a book I love. And I think the first fifty pages of that book are so hot. I mean Dickens was absolutely red hot when he wrote them because they are so tight and theyre so engaging and theyre so imaginative and beautifully wrought, I think everything about it. And of course hes famous for his vivid characters...all of them I think still very much live on in my imagination. The first time I read it I was absolutely taken away by the cleverness of it. The second time I read it I wasnt as taken away by it and I think that Dickens does very, very many things extraordinarily well but structuring novels never seems to be one of them. Great Expectations is probably his best that I have read. Its his most tightly constructed and it still has a lot of loose ends.
Ernest Gaines: There're certain books that I would recommend that students readfor a certain reason. If you want to read great dialogue I could recommend Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises. If you want to see a very well-structured little book, I could recommend Fitzgerald's Great Gatsby, or [if] you want to read a good book about young men in war, I can recommend All Quiet on the Western Front. You want to read a book about a young man wandering around in a big city, I can recommend Catcher in the Rye. So these are books I teach, and it might be good for them to read. But I'd say read War and Peace and I'd say read Shakespeare and I'd say read the Bible. In the Bible you're going to find great story, great poetry, great songs. You read War and Peace, and you will find one of the greatest novels ever written. You'll see how well a massive novel is put together. It depends on the book and the student you're talking to.
Orson Scott Card: If you have to read it in class, then you have to consider that you've been sentenced to a term in prison for a crime you didn't commit. And you serve your time. But if it's a book you hate, that's all you're doing is serving time. It will have no effect on you. It will not move you because you hate it. You reject it, probably...because you don't believe it or you just don't care about it. And so if a teacher's requiring you to read a book that you hate, just serve your time and get out of it when you can. Don't fight it. I mean, give in. Read it. Later you may find that that very book means a lot to you. But at the time of reading, it doesn't. Just because somebody tells you a book is great, even if they're telling you, not because they learned in college that it was great, but because they loved that book, that doesn't mean it's gonna be great for you.

Yankees' benefit raises thousands for radio producer
NEW YORK -- The Yankees hit one out of the park Monday for Carlos Silva, a veteran producer and engineer for the club's radio broadcasts who is battling esophageal and stomach cancer.
About 150 fans turned out for a Hot Stove Q&A at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, raising in excess of $20,000 for Silva, a fixture in the Yankee Stadium press box who assists announcers John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman on a daily basis during the season.
"A tremendous family man, a tremendous employee," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "He's with us all the time; he's on our charters and we see him all the time in the lobby of the hotels. He's part of the family. He's going through a difficult time and we're going to help him."
Silva was unable to attend the event, but he tweeted from Florida, "Thanks to all in New York for helping me and my family. Good luck and God bless you all."
Sterling and Waldman served as the hosts for the event, which was also attended by general manager Brian Cashman, manager Joe Girardi, first baseman Mark Teixeira and closer Mariano Rivera. Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News also served on the panel.
"I went through this. I know what chemotherapy is like," Waldman said. "Having cancer is terrifying. It's more terrifying when you don't have the money to pay for the treatments, and this helps. You want to help somebody like that. George Steinbrenner talked about the Yankee family, it's real, and this is it."
In one of the highlights of the evening, Rivera donned a Yankees jersey and assumed the role of an auctioneer, helping spur bidding into the thousands of dollars. A silent auction was also held, and the Yankees also conducted an online auction at http://yankees.com/auction.
Silva has worked on Yankees games since 2006 and plans to rejoin the traveling party in time for WCBS' first broadcasts from Spring Training in Tampa, Fla.
"He loves the game and you can see his enthusiasm for the game," Girardi said. "He probably takes losses as hard as anyone when it comes to Yankee baseball. I've never seen Carlos not have a smile on his face, and that's the kind of guy he is."

Middle School Curriculum
Inquiry Based Learning and the IB
Engagement and challenge are at the heart of learning in the Middle School. Our IB Middle Years Programme is inquiry based, meaning that every unit of work begins with a question. For example, "Is Language Power?" With this approach, students immediately understand the relevance of what they are learning and find it more engaging.
Teaching must be precise and rigorous. Students are taught the rules of spelling and grammar, the strategies for solving algebraic equations, and then given the opportunity to apply this knowledge. Providing an opportunity for students to demonstrate and test their understanding is essential. In applying learning, our students enjoy the immense satisfaction of having the disparate parts fall into place as a cohesive whole. This understanding allows them to confidently relate new learning to their everyday lives.
Students in Year 7 and 8 follow a set programme in which they spend half of each day in the familiar Homeroom situation with their own teacher who covers several subjects. The rest of the day is spent with specialist tutors in subjects such as sciences, arts or sports. In Years 9 and 10, the programmes become more specialised and the students are offered choices as Option Subjects. All students learn a second language and utilise personal laptops or tablets in their daily classroom activities.
Our learning programmes are diverse and engaging, with particular emphasis on developing genuine understanding and mastery. The sense of achievement that our students gain from these programmes provides a strong academic foundation as they move forward into their senior schooling years, confident in their own abilities and equipped with a passion for learning.

Large grain crops - Highlight of the 2001-2002 season
Cereal grain crop production was at or near record levels during the year prior to the drought according to preliminary 2001-2002 Agricultural Survey estimates released today by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
Wheat production increased over the previous year by 12% to 24.9 million tonnes. The rise was largely due to increased production in Western Australia (up 36%) and South Australia (up 18%).
Barley production increased by 25% to 8.4 million tonnes. There were increased plantings and production in all major barley growing states.
The production of oats for grain increased by 37% to 1.4 million tonnes, with particularly large increases in New South Wales (up 35%), South Australia (up 46%) and Western Australia (up 79%).
Livestock numbers reduced over the year to 30 June 2002, with the exception of pig numbers which continued to increase.
Milk cattle numbers decreased by 4% to 3.1 million with decreases recorded in all states.
The meat cattle herd fell by 1.4% to 24.2 million head. Decreases in New South Wales (down 4.0%), Queensland (down 2.0%) and the Northern Territory (down 3.9%) were partially offset by increases in Victoria (up 3.6%), South Australia (up 5.8%) and Western Australia (up 1.8%).
The sheep and lamb flock decreased 2% to 108.6 million at 30 June 2002. The flock has decreased by 24 million (from 132.6 million) since 1993-94.
Pig numbers increased by 5% to 2.9 million head. There were large increases in Victoria (up 18%) and Western Australia (up 25%), partially offset by decreases in South Australia (down 7%) and New South Wales (down 3%).
(Note that these estimates relate to the year ended 30 June 2002, prior to the impact of the drought which now affects most areas of Australia).
Further details are in Principal Agricultural Commodities Australia (Preliminary) 2001-2002 (cat. no. 7111.055.003).
