Coming Saturday May 1st, 2010: Free Comic Book Day!
This Saturday is Free Comic Book Day, and I'm here to give you the skinny on what Forbidden Planet NYC has planned for our participation in 2010's event.
Free Comic Book Day is an annual event that now takes place on the first Saturday of May each year wherein participating comic shops all over the world give away comic books for FREE. Forbidden Planet has participated in FCBD since its inception and has given away hundreds of thousands of comics on this special day.
Each year publishers produce comic books intended to be given away that day- often samplers of what they normally publish, or reprints/previews of first issues and jump-on points of established series. Here is a list of what's being given out Saturday (Click on the thumbnails for full pics):

Will Cheryl's group be a tuneful treat, or mistaken for bellowing whales?

Teacher professional development and classroom resources across the curriculum
The properties and patterns of prime numbers—whole numbers that are divisible only by themselves and one—have been a source of wonder across cultures for thousands of years, and the study of prime numbers is fundamental to mathematics. This unit explores our fascination with primes, culminating in the million-dollar puzzle of the Riemann Hypothesis, a possible description of the pattern behind the primes, and the use of the primes as the foundation of modern cryptography.
It is often said that Mathematics is a universal language. No matter one's culture, country, gender, race, or even religion, certain mathematical principles remain true. The fundamental letters of the mathematical alphabet are known as the primes.
Long studied for their mysteries, many of which remain unsolved, primes were, until relatively recently, solely the concern of mathematicians. With the explosion of digital communications and our dependence on Internet transactions, however, primes now play a pivotal role in other areas, as well.
Some of the first people to study numbers as objects were the Pythagoreans. One of the most important properties to the Pythagoreans was a number's shape. This interactive illustrates how playing with numbers can lead to mathematical discoveries.

DescriptionThe ancient Angelou civilization has ceased to exist centuries ago, and technology in the world develops rapidly. General Baal, the head of the militaristic Garlyle Forces, organizes an excavation of ancient ruins, apparently for philanthropic reasons. Meanwhile, Justin, a young boy from the nearby town of Parm, decides to investigate the ruins in search of the Spirit Stone, an artefact that once belonged to his missing father. A mysterious holographic image tells him that he should travel to faraway lands to discover the stone's true power, and he embarks on the most dangerous adventure of his life without hesitation.
Grandia is a Japanese-style role-playing game. The characters are represented by 2D sprites which are moved around over 3D backgrounds in towns and dungeons. The game makes use of anime-style cutscenes to advance the story. Combat is initiated by coming into contact with enemies on the screen, rather than through random battles. Battles occur in pseudo-real-time, using an 'IP Gauge' to determine when a character takes action. Striking at the right time or with the right ability can even delay or cancel an enemy's turn.
The characters in the game gradually advance in level as they gain experience points for killing monsters. Characters also gain experience based on the weapon (e.g. sword, mace, whip, etc.) or magic (e.g. fire, water, etc.) that they use, powering up their spells and learning new ones from continuous usage. There are a large number of spells, weapons, and other items to use throughout the game.

TranslationDue to a lazy translation there is actually a rude swear word if played by someone in the U.K. When Justin and Feena are shot into the volcano by the catapult and they land Feena says "I hit my fanny". In the U.S. this is a nice word for the bottom or ass but in the U.K. fanny is a fairly strong slang word for the female genitalia. What makes it even more funnier in the fact that she does land on it. They probably just did a straight copy and paste job from the U.S. translation for the European release and neglected to realise what fanny means in British English.

You can use various other Adobe applications to enhance or modify the assets used in a Premiere Pro project. Also, you can use Premiere Pro to edit projects begun in other applications.
In Premiere Pro, the Edit Original command opens clips in the applications associated with their file types. You can edit clips in the associated applications. Premiere Pro automatically incorporates the changes into the current project without replacing files. Similarly, Premiere Pro sequences placed in other applications, such as Adobe After Effects can be opened with the host product's Edit Original command.
From the After Effects Timeline panel, you can copy layers based on audio or video footage items (including solids) and paste them into the Adobe Premiere Pro Timeline panel.
From the Adobe Premiere Pro Timeline panel, you can copy assets (any items in a track) and paste them into the After Effects Timeline panel.
From either After Effects or Adobe Premiere Pro, you can copy and paste footage items to the other's Project panel.
note: You can't, however, paste footage items from the After Effects Project panel into the Adobe Premiere Pro Timeline panel.
If you want to work with all clips or a single sequence from an Adobe Premiere Pro project, use the Import command instead to import the project into After Effects.
Use Adobe Dynamic Link to create dynamic links, without rendering, between new or existing compositions in After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro. For more information, see Adobe Dynamic Link.
You can copy a layer based on a footage item from an After Effects composition and paste it into an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence. Adobe Premiere Pro converts these layers to clips in the sequence and copies the source footage item to its Project panel. If the layer contains an effect that is also used by Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro converts the effect and all of its settings and keyframes.
You can also copy nested compositions, Photoshop layers, solid-color layers, and audio layers. Adobe Premiere Pro converts nested compositions to nested sequences, and solid-color layers to color mattes. You cannot copy shape, text, camera, light, or adjustment layers to Adobe Premiere Pro.
If you select multiple layers and the layers don't overlap in After Effects, they're placed on the same track in Adobe Premiere Pro. On the other hand, if the layers overlap in After Effects, the order in which you select them determines the order of their track placement in Adobe Premiere Pro. Each layer is placed on a separate track, and the last selected layer appears on Track 1. For example, if you select layers from top to bottom, the layers appear in the reverse order in Adobe Premiere Pro, with the bottom-most layer on Track 1.
When you paste a layer into an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence, keyframes, effects, and other properties in the copied layer are converted as follows:
After Effects item
Converted to in Adobe Premiere Pro
Audio volume property
Channel Volume filter
Blending modes
Blending modes supported by Adobe Premiere Pro are converted
Effect properties and keyframes
Effect properties and keyframes, if the effect also exists in Adobe Premiere Pro
Adobe Premiere Pro lists unsupported effects as offline in the Effect Controls panel. Some After Effects effects have the same names as those in Adobe Premiere Pro, but since they're actually different effects, they aren't converted.
Not converted
Layer markers
Clip markers
Masks and mattes
Not converted
Stereo Mixer effect
Channel Volume filter
Time Remap property
Time Remapping effect
Time Stretch property
Speed property
Speed and time stretch have an inverse relationship. For example, 200% stretch in After Effects converts to 50% speed in Adobe Premiere Pro.
Transform property values and keyframes
Motion or Opacity values and keyframes
The keyframe type—Bezier, Auto Bezier, Continuous Bezier, or Hold—is retained.
Source settings for R3D source files
Source settings for R3D source files
You can copy a video or audio asset from an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence and paste it into an After Effects composition. After Effects converts assets to layers and copies the source footage items into its Project panel. If the asset contains an effect that is also used by After Effects, After Effects converts the effect and all of its settings and keyframes.
You can copy color mattes, stills, nested sequences, and offline files, too. After Effects converts color mattes into solid-color layers and converts nested sequences into nested compositions. When you copy a Photoshop still image into After Effects, After Effects retains the Photoshop layer information. You cannot paste Adobe Premiere Pro titles into After Effects, but you can paste text with attributes from the Adobe Premiere Titler into After Effects.
When you paste an asset into an After Effects composition, keyframes, effects, and other properties in a copied asset are converted as follows:
Adobe Premiere Pro asset
Converted to in After Effects
Audio track
Audio layers
Audio tracks that are either 5.1 surround or greater than 16‑bit aren't supported. Mono and stereo audio tracks are imported as one or two layers.
Bars and tone
Not converted
Blending modes
Clip marker
Layer marker
Color mattes
Solid-color layers
Crop filter
Mask layer
Frame Hold
Time Remap property
Motion or Opacity values and keyframes
Transform property values and keyframes
Keyframe type—Bezier, Auto Bezier, Continuous Bezier, or Hold—is retained.
Sequence marker
Markers on a new solid-color layer
To copy sequence markers, you must either copy the sequence itself or import the entire Adobe Premiere Pro project as a composition.
Speed property
Time Stretch property
Speed and time stretch have an inverse relationship. For example, 50% speed in Adobe Premiere Pro is converted to 200% stretch in After Effects.
Time Remapping effect
Time Remap property
Not converted
Universal counting leaders

Other audio filters are not converted.

Source settings for R3D source files
When you import a Premiere Pro project into After Effects, features are converted in the same manner as they are converted when copying from Premiere Pro to After Effects.
If you use Photoshop to create still images, you can use Premiere Pro to make them move and change. You can animate an entire image or any of its layers.
You can edit individual frames of video and image sequence files in Photoshop. In addition to using any Photoshop tool to edit and paint on video, you can also apply filters, masks, transformations, layers styles, and blending modes. You can paint using the Clone Stamp, Pattern Stamp, Healing Brush, or Spot Healing Brush. You can also edit video frames using the Patch tool.
In Photoshop, with the Clone Stamp, you can sample a frame from a video layer and paint with the sampled source onto another video frame. As you move to different target frames, the source frame changes relative to the frame from which you initially sampled.
After making edits, you can save the video as a PSD file, or you can render it as a QuickTime movie or image sequence. You can import any of these back into Premiere Pro for further editing.
If you use Premiere Pro to create movies, you can use Photoshop to refine the individual frames of those movies. In Photoshop, you can do any of the following:
Remove unwanted visual elements.
Draw on individual frames.
Use the superior selection and masking tools to divide a frame into elements for animation or compositing.
- Learn how Photoshop makes it super-easy to produce graphic and photographic content for video editing in this tutorial.
- Watch this tutorial to learn how to work with unflattened Photoshop files in your video projects.
- This video tutorial explains how to import a Photoshop file into Premiere Pro and access individual layers to work on selective animation and effects.
The strengths of Premiere Pro lie in its numerous video editing features. You can use it to combine Photoshop files with video clips, audio clips, and other assets. You can use the Photoshop files, for example, as titles, graphics, and masks.
In contrast, Photoshop has excellent tools for painting, drawing, and selecting portions of an image. The Photoshop Quick Selection tool and Magnetic Lasso tool make it easy to create a mask from a complex shape. Rather than hand-drawing a mask in Premiere Pro, consider doing this work in Photoshop. Similarly, if you are applying several paint strokes by hand to get rid of dust, consider using the Photoshop paint tools.
The animation and video features in Photoshop Extended include simple keyframe-based animation. Premiere Pro, however, provides quite a bit more keyframe control over various properties.
Premiere Pro can import and export still images in many formats. For greatest versatility, however, use the native Photoshop PSD format when transferring individual frames or still image sequences from Photoshop to Premiere Pro.
When you import a PSD file into Premiere Pro, you can choose whether to import it as a flattened image, or with its layers separate and intact.
It is often a good idea to prepare a still image in Photoshop before importing it into Premiere Pro. Examples of such preparation include correcting color, scaling, and cropping. It is often better to change a source image in Photoshop than to have Premiere Pro perform the same operation many times per second as it renders each frame for previews or final output.
In Photoshop, you can create a PSD document that is set up correctly for a specific video output type. From the New File dialog box, select a Film & Video preset. In Premiere Pro, you can create a PSD document that matches your composition and sequence settings. Choose File > New > Photoshop File.
You can no longer exchange PSD video files with Photoshop, however, you can render a movie directly from Photoshop and then import it back into Premiere Pro. For example, you can create a QuickTime movie from Photoshop that can then be imported into Premiere Pro.
Premiere Pro works internally with colors in an RGB (red, green, blue) color space. If you want to edit video clips you create in Photoshop in Premiere Pro, create the clips in RGB.
If you want to broadcast the final movie it is best to ensure, in Photoshop, that the colors in your image are broadcast-safe. Assign the appropriate destination color space—for example, SDTV (Rec. 601)—to the document in Photoshop.
You can create a still Photoshop file that automatically inherits the pixel and frame aspect ratio settings of your Premiere Pro project. You can also edit any still image file in a Premiere Pro project in Photoshop.
From within a project, you can open an image file in most formats that Adobe Photoshop supports. Premiere Pro does not import files in CMYK or LAB color formats.
Using Adobe Encore CS6 and Adobe Premiere Pro, you can burn a single sequence to DVD or Blu-ray Disc. You can burn each sequence in your project to a separate DVD or Blu-ray Disc. First, add all the content you want to include on a disc into a sequence. After you edit the sequence, perform the following tasks:
To use Encore CS6 with Premiere Pro CC, see the following resources:
You can add Encore chapter markers in a Adobe Premiere Pro sequence. You can send the Encore chapter markers, along with the sequence to Encore.
In Encore, if you create an AutoPlay DVD, the Encore chapter markers become scene markers. When viewing the DVD, pressing the Previous button or Next button on the remote control skips backward or forward to the next of these markers. If you create a DVD or Blu-ray Disc with menus, you can link scene buttons on the menus to the Encore chapter markers.
You can send a whole sequence, or any portion of a sequence, from Adobe Premiere Pro to Encore. From Encore, you can burn the sequence directly to a DVD without menus, or add menus and buttons before burning. From Encore, you can export the project in any of the following forms:
- you can burn the project to disc,
- you can save the project to a DVD image file,
- you can save the project to a set of DVD folders,
- you can save the project to DVD master files on DLT tape.
- you can export the project to a SWF file for posting on the web.
Alternatively, using the MPEG2-DVD format, you can export a DVD-compliant MPEG-2 file from Adobe Premiere Pro. You can use the MPEG-2 file in most DVD-authoring applications.
Encore templates are predesigned menus that come in several styles. Buttons on the templates automatically link to chapter markers placed in the sequence. Encore creates additional submenus as necessary to accommodate all the chapter markers in a sequence.
AutoPlay DVDs do not have menus. Do not choose a template for AutoPlay DVDs.
Edit titles, change graphics, or add video for background in Encore. You can also use video in button thumbnails by specifying a section of a clip to play in the button.
With a DVD or Blu-ray Disc burner installed or connected, you can burn your content to disc. You can save the compressed files to a folder for playback from a computer hard drive. You can also save an ISO image to distribute or burn to a DVD.
Encore creates DVDs that conform to DVD-video format. It does not create data or audio DVDs.
You can import Final Cut Pro project XML files into Premiere Pro. For more information, see Importing XML project files from Final Cut Pro. You can export Premiere Pro project files as Final Cut Pro XML files.
For more information, see Export a Final Cut Pro project XML file.
For more information about workflows possible between Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro, see Open workflows with Final Cut Pro and Avid software.
Joost van der Hoeven provides a video tutorial on the Adobe website that demonstrates exchanging information between Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro using XML projects.
Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro 7 (and earlier) can share Final Cut Pro XML files for data exchange. To exchange information between Final Cut Pro X and Premiere Pro, you can use a third party tool called "Xto7." For more information on using this tool, see here.
See this page for several documents that make the transition from Final Cut Pro to Premiere Pro easier.
An exported XML file from Premiere Pro can be imported into some versions of Final Cut Express, as well.

Hi all, whoever's left.
I have three of the Touchstream LPs and one of the minis. My lifestyle is likely going to be changing in the near future, to one that does not allow much storage of things that don't get used regularly and so I am thinking of selling two of the TSLPS and the mini. I definitely want to keep the one, for old time's sake if nothing else. But the others, well, haven't been using them for at least 5 years now and where I'm going, space is going to be at a premium.
So, anybody interested, contact me either on this board or via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
I'm thinking about $300 for each of the TSLPs, and $150 for the mini.

Madam Speaker, our fruit growing industry is in deep in trouble. B.C. apple growers are making a return of 12¢ a pound while their cost of production is 22¢ per pound. Current farm support programs are too complicated even for accountants to understand and are not paying out. Many farmers have yet to receive program payments they applied for in 2008.
Our trade policies are taking a toll on our fruit growers. Cheap subsidized apples coming in from Washington State are undercutting prices for our farmers. The president of the B.C. Fruit Growers' Association is appalled that the CFIA has approved an import permit from yet another Chinese province. We simply cannot sustain any more apple imports from countries with low production costs, especially those whose standards do not exactly conform with ours.
I call upon the federal government to put Canadian farmers first and to ensure that any current or future trade agreements do not interfere with their ability to earn a decent living and to supply us with good quality food.

The wedding of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg to Priscilla Chan on Saturday held a lot of surprises, not the least of which was the story of her wedding gown.
Using a different last name, Chan selected her Claire Pettibone dress at Little White Dress Bridal Shop in Denver last fall and gave the store no more information other than the date, May 19. All arrangements were made through a third party friend.
Chan's gown, called "Sky Between the Branches" is a mermaid silhouette and features matte sequins and ivory cut-out lace and embroidery over silk charmeuse, with a sheer illusion back. It sells for $4,700 and was from Pettibone's 2010 "Cherry Blossom" collection.

Union Pacific Builds on Military Heritage by Supporting Guard
By Sara Moore
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19, 2008 - Union Pacific is a company that is proud of its strong ties with the military. Hundreds of thousands of Civil War veterans helped build the first transcontinental railroad in the 1860s, which was considered vital to national defense. During World War I and II, the railroad canteen in North Platte, Neb., was a resting place for many troops on their way overseas.
Union Pacific's partnership with the military continues today and, in some respects, is stronger than ever, said Roy Schroer, assistant vice president of human resources. Of the company's more than 50,000 employees, more than 7,300 serve or have served in the military, and 530 have been deployed since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. And Union Pacific has always worked hard to take care of its employees who serve in the National Guard or reserves and have to balance training and deployments with civilian life, he said.
Union Pacific's support efforts for military employees range all the way from company policy for things like pay and benefits down to fellow employee support, like care packages, Schroer said. For its efforts, Union Pacific is being awarded the 2008 Secretary of Defense Employer Support Freedom Award, which recognizes employers who go above and beyond in supporting employees who serve in the National Guard and Reserve.
Union Pacific has a long-standing policy, which goes back to before 9/11, to offer differential pay for National Guard and reserve employees during deployments and activations. The company also continues all medical, dental and life coverage for deployed employees and families, and each of these employees is assigned a care coordinator who assists with benefits and family needs during the deployment.
In addition to these benefits, Union Pacific does a lot of "personal touch" things for deployed employees, Schroer said. The company writes about deployed employees in newspaper articles and companywide publications, sends care packages and cards, and helps families with things like home repairs.
It is this support during deployments that motivated Jesse Swanger to nominate Union Pacific for the Freedom Award. When Swanger, a specialist in the Iowa National Guard, was deployed to Iraq, about five other Union Pacific employees were in his company. The employees got to talking, he said, and realized how much Union Pacific had supported all of them during their deployments. "They made leaving and coming back as easy as possible," Swanger said.
Swanger has worked for Union Pacific for two years and said he enjoys his job because of the people he works with. "They are a great group of people," he said.
Union Pacific also has a unique program that is addressing what has been a major problem in the war on terrorism: post-traumatic stress disorder. Company officials recognized what a big problem PTSD was and that early diagnosis and treatment are very important to veterans' long-term health, Schroer said. In the interest of making the transition of employees returning from deployments back to the workplace as smooth as possible, Union Pacific established a program to help identify and promptly treat PTSD.
Addressing PTSD is important not only for the employees' health, but also for the well-being of the entire company, Schroer said. "Many of these people just need some assistance and understanding on our part so that they can move back into normal physical and mental capabilities and work safely," he said. "We need everyone to feel confident in everyone else's abilities to focus on their tasks and be safe."
Supporting the military is part of Union Pacific's culture and heritage and is something that the entire company gets involved with, Schroer said. Thousands of employees turn out to sign Christmas cards or contribute to care packages for deployed employees, he said. "It's a great morale sustainer across the entire company," he said. "It's something that the employees show a lot of pride in."
Schroer noted that investing in employees who serve in the Guard and reserves doesn't just benefit the employees, either. "We have a lot of investment in employees who get deployed, and we would love to see them come back and be able to utilize that training once again and also bring back great training that they get while deployed," he said. "We feel we get a lot back out of this. It's not a one-way street at all."
Union Pacific leaders were "ecstatic" when they heard about the Freedom Award, Schroer said. He said the company plans to continue its relationship with the military.
"We've had a lot of great partnerships with the military and keep trying to nurture those. It's one of those where we keep working on the relationship and it keeps paying off and that's a great partnership when you have both sides supporting each other," he said. "We feel like we're the beneficiary more so than the contributor here."
Union Pacific will receive the Freedom Award along with 14 other companies in a ceremony Sept. 18 at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center here. The Freedom Award was instituted in 1996 under the auspices of the National Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve to recognize exceptional support from the employer community.

It also tells you how to get in touch if you have any questions about it, which we will be more than happy to answer. If you're interested in what we do with cookies and similar technologies, please check out our Cookie Statement.
We may change this Notice from time to time; so please check back here for any updates.
We offer a range of services related to online ground transportation, including products and services through our own websites, mobile apps, emails and text messages ('platforms'). We also do this through our business partners' websites, social media and other platforms. This Notice applies to all the personal data we collect while we're doing this, or when you contact us by email, live chat, phone or post.
Our business partners should also visit our Privacy and Cookie Statement for Business Partners to understand how personal data is processed as part of our business relationship.
We can't help you make a booking or request a quote without certain information. When you do either of those things, we ask you for the information we need so we can give you what you want. This is pretty standard stuff and may include your name, age, date and place of birth and contact details (email, address and phone number). It can also include information about your loyalty programme number and payment information.
In addition, we collect information from your computer when you use one of our platforms, even if you don't make a booking. This may include your IP address, which browser you use, and your language settings. There are also situations where we receive information about you from third parties, or automatically collect other information. This is a basic overview of the information we collect. Would you like to know more?
We store and use the information that you give us. When you make a booking, we need at least your name, email address, phone number, pick up and drop off address and payment information. We might also ask for your home address, flight number and date of birth, and the names of any additional passengers.
If you get in touch with us (by phone, by email or through social media, for example) we will collect information from you there too.
After your booking, we may ask you to provide a review to help us improve our services, and to help ensure future customers get exactly what they're looking for.
There are also other ways you might give us information. For example, if you're browsing with your mobile device, you can share your current location with us, so we can provide you with the best possible service. To make things easier, you can also open a user account, which lets you review and manage your bookings, as well as saving your personal settings. It also makes it easier to make future bookings.
You might add someone as an additional passenger, or you might make a booking on behalf of someone else, for example, a friend, family member or colleague. If you do, please make sure that the person knows you're giving us their details, and has accepted the way we handle their personal data (as described in this Notice). This is your responsibility.
When you make a booking, we record what platform you made it on, and how you got to our platform (if you came through from another site, for example).
Even if you don't end up making a booking, we may automatically collect some information when you visit our platforms. This may include your IP address, which pages you've visited, which browser you're using, and information about clicks. It might also include information about your computer's operating system, its application version, language settings, device-specific setting and characteristics, and data that identifies your device.
If you're using a mobile device, we might also collect location details. And we might analyse and process basic data related to the apps installed on it (e.g. name, description and category).
We may also get information about you from social media platforms, our business partners, subsidiaries of the Booking.com Rides corporate family, affiliates of the Booking Holdings Inc corporate group (see here for more information) and other third parties. For example:
We may combine any of this information with the information you give us directly.
Please see 'Why do we collect and use your personal data?' for details.
We ask for your personal data so we can book your ground transportation (and anything else you need for your booking), and make sure you get the best possible service. We also use it to contact you, and to tell you about our latest deals and special offers. These are the main reasons we collect your personal data, but there are other reasons too. Would you like to know more?
We may use your personal data in the following ways:
There are a number of different business partners integrated in the services we provide, and in certain situations we may share your personal data with them. In most cases, we're simply passing on your booking details to the business partners that are helping us deliver the service you're requesting. We will also share your data with other third parties, which may include payment service providers, advertising partners, subsidiaries of the Booking.com Rides corporate family and affiliates of the Booking Holdings Inc corporate group, and – in some cases – the authorities. These are the main reasons we would share your personal data. Would you like to know more?
Booking.com Rides is part of the Booking Holdings Inc. corporate group. See https://www.bookingholdings.com/ for more information.
We may receive personal data about you from other companies of the Booking.com Holdings Inc. corporate group or share your personal data with them for the following purposes:
For purposes 1 to 5, we rely on our legitimate interest to share and receive personal data. For example, we work closely with Booking.com to offer accommodation and attractions services to our customers, and all companies within the Booking Holdings Inc. group of companies may need to exchange customer personal data to ensure it protects all users from fraudulent activities on its platforms.
For purpose 6, we rely where applicable on compliance with legal obligations (such as lawful law enforcement requests).
We offer free apps for a range of mobile devices, as well as versions of our regular website that have been optimised for mobile and tablet browsing. They collect and process your personal data in much the same way as our other platforms do, and they also allow you to find local ground transportation based on your current location. Would you like to know more?
If you agree to it, we can send 'push' notifications straight to your mobile device, so you don't miss important information about your booking. And, if you let us access your device's location or contact details, we can provide extra services if you request them. Your mobile device will have instructions on allowing push notifications and giving us access to this kind of data.
To give you a better service and more relevant marketing, we may use something known as 'cross-device tracking'. This just means we look at the way you use our platforms on more than one device: we could, for example, combine data from your mobile phone and your home computer. This is something we may or may not use cookies for (for more on cookies and similar technologies, please see our Cookie Statement).
To make sure you find deals that are more likely to interest you in our newsletter, we look at the searches you make and the services you book on multiple devices once you've signed in to your user account. If you don't want us to do this, just sign out before you browse, or unsubscribe from our newsletter.
Cross-device tracking can also mean that when you're using one device, you may see personalised advertisements from lots of different companies, based on your activities on linked devices. The NAI (Network Advertising Initiative) should stop this happening if you opt out of the NAI behavioural advertising program (our Cookie Statement gives you the link you need, under "It's your choice: Opting in and opting out"). Please note: simply signing out of your user account won't stop this happening.
Our business systems and procedures ensure we take all reasonable steps to protect your personal data and safeguard it against any misuse or unauthorised access, in accordance with UK and European data protection laws. We also have specific security procedures and restrictions (both technical and physical) that limit access to, and use of, any personal data that we hold. Only authorised personnel can access personal data – and they're only allowed to do it for specific, authorised reasons.
We don't direct our services to children under the age of 16. For children younger than 16 years old, the use of any of our services is only allowed if accompanied by a parent or a guardian.

We reserve the right to delete any information we may receive from a child under this age or without the valid consent of a parent or guardian.
You have the right, subject to some legal exceptions, to access, correct or delete any personal data we keep about you, and to object to your personal data being processed. You can use our Data Subject Access Portal to enforce any of these rights. If you do, we will ask for further information to confirm your identity, to keep your information safe and we will handle your request in accordance with applicable UK data protection law. You can update or delete your user account at any time by signing in on our site.
When you make a booking or request a quote, we ask whether you'd like to opt in to receive marketing emails. You can opt out at any time by clicking "unsubscribe" in any of these marketing emails, or by updating your email preferences in your user account.

"Jackass" star Steve-O was released from jail Thursday, only hours after reporting for his 30-day sentence for climbing a crane in Hollywood in a protest against SeaWorld.
Steve-O, whose legal name is Stephen Gilchrist Glover, was sentenced in October to a month in jail and three years of probation for the stunt that drew dozens of emergency responders to a construction site on Aug. 9.
Glover turned himself in Wednesday night and was released about 2:30 a.m. Thursday, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. The release was due to jail overcrowding, a sheriff's spokeswoman said.
The 41-year-old scrambled up a crane at least 100 feet high on Sunset Boulevard, inflating a large killer whale balloon emblazoned with "SeaWorld Sucks" and lighting fireworks when he reached the top, police said.
Glover was charged with one count each of creating a false emergency, use of unregistered fireworks, storing fireworks without a permit, possession of fireworks without a permit, and trespassing, the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office said.
He must pay nearly $14,000 in fines to the LA city fire and police departments.
As part of his probation, he cannot use or possess fireworks, even ones labeled "safe and sane." He was ordered to stay 100 yards away from the "Hollywood Entertainment District," and can't do any non-permitted stunts or pranks in in Los Angeles County.
The performer was cited last year for another protest against the theme park. Glover said his demonstrations are in response to controversy over the 2013 documentary "Blackfish," which criticized SeaWorld's treatment of killer whales.

OMG, Just In! Lindsay Lohan To Host 'SNL' Dec. 4!
Lindsay Lohan sure is being a good sport about her recent jail time and subsequent rehab stint: Following her pre-taped cameo on last weekend's VMAs, the actress is now gearing up for another opportunity to poke fun at herself: She's slated to host Saturday Night Live on Dec. 4, a source confirms to HollywoodLife.com.
"It is true," says the source.
And a friend of Lindsay's says she's psyched for the gig. "Lindsay is absolutely hilarious and has great comedic timing," says the pal. "She will show the world who she is while poking fun of herself. Everyone is going to be hammering to see her live on SNL."
During the VMAs, Lindsay appeared in a taped spot with Chelsea Handler, in which she asked the host why her ankle bracelet was going off—a nod to the fact that Lindsay herself was required to wear an alcohol-monitoring anklet. Chelsea responded, "That just means my table's ready at the Cheesecake Factory." Lindsay's response? "Do you think anyone wants to work with a drunk? Take it from me, they don't."

There's a good reason that people use the word "ecosystem" when discussing Apple products.
Indeed, the company has spent the last couple of years pushing the idea that customers should have the same user experience regardless of which device is in their hands. And now, just as iOS has evolved to unify that experience across the iPad, iPhone, and iPad Touch, the latest version of OS X brings the Mac further into the fold.
Announced today as Mountain Lion (v10.8), the update brings many of the features born in iOS 5 and plants them on the desktop. Some of the additions, like Notes, Reminders, and iMessage, are strictly functional, while others, like AirPlay Mirroring, iCloud, and a deep Game Center integration, spread the content love across your Apple-integrated universe. And don't assume that Mountain Lion just rehashes what you've already seen, for it also delivers a new security feature that keeps Apple at the forefront of malware protection.
Since we're nowhere near the final version of Mountain Lion (that will come this summer), I won't have an official CNET review or performance benchmarks quite yet. But after using an early preview of the developer release for a few days, I can walk you through 10 feature highlights and describe the user experience. To someone who's covered the iPhone and iOS since that very first handset five years ago, it was abundantly clear what Apple is trying to do here. In fact, from the moment I cracked open a MacBook Air with Mountain Lion onboard I was in familiar territory.
We'll expand on this First Take over the next few months as Apple announces more features. And as you read on, keep in mind that the interface that I'm describing here may change at any time. Once the customer release of Mountain Lion climbs into the Mac App Store, though, you can rest assured that we'll pull out all the review stops.
Though hardly glamorous or shiny, iMessage was one of the better features of iOS 5. It provided yet another way to keep in touch, and because it lived outside of your wireless carrier's realm, you could send everything from text to photos without adding a penny to your cell phone bill. Seriously, who doesn't love that?
Granted, bypassing your carrier's clutches isn't a concern when messaging on a Mac, but Mountain Lion's iMessage app is just as easy to use. You'll find all of the same features, including delivery and read receipts, encrypted messaging, support for media and contacts, and a typing indicator. You can send messages to an iPhone number or e-mail address (assuming your friend's device also has iOS 5 or Mountain Lion) and you can talk to a group at once. And thanks to iCloud, your chats are pushed to all of your Apple devices.
As iMessage replaces the iChat app, you'll need an Apple ID to get started. The interface is largely similar to the mobile experience while showing a few differences such as a list of chats on the left side and a longer conversation display. I loved that you could launch FaceTime from the app, though I'd prefer a button for adding photos directly into your conversation (like you get in the messaging app on the iPhone). Yes, you can open a photo on your desktop and drag it over to your chat window, but that involves a couple of additional steps. Hopefully, Apple will address this in the final version of Mountain Lion.
Another iOS 5 import, the Reminders app also brings the same features while adding a few more goodies. You can make a to-do list, set due dates for alerts, and push your information to all devices. Thanks to your Mac's larger display there's also a search field for finding buried reminders and a calendar for viewing reminders tied to a specific date.
The only feature not carried over from iOS 5 is the ability to set a geofence for a task. That means, of course, that you can't set your Mac to remind you to "call home" when you leave work and then receive the notice when you're out the door. I don't think that's a huge loss, but it's worth pointing out just the same.
Here again, though the basics of typing a note are unchanged, the interface has been modified and enhanced for use on a Mac. Now you can use rich text, make bullet or numbered lists, search for notes, and add a photo. Adding links is a promised feature, as well, though I wasn't able to use it at the time of this writing. There's also a sharing app for sending a note via e-mail or iMessage and you can pin a note to your desktop to keep it always visible. And just like with iMessage and Reminders, you can see a list of all Notes on the left side of the app and you can push content to all devices linked to your iCloud account.
Apple took a big step forward when it introduced the Notification Center in iOS 5. As Android fans will point out, the pull-down menu wasn't novel, but it did improve the user experience immensely. And with Mountain Lion, Apple has carried the feature over to the Mac while shaking it up a bit.
You start by configuring notifications in the Systems Preferences menu. The feature works with a broad assortment of apps, including e-mail, iMessages, missed FaceTime calls, Twitter mentions and direct messages, event reminders, and calendar invites, but you can select only the apps that you want to use. When notifications and alerts arrive they'll appear in the top right corner of your screen. The former will disappear after 5 seconds while the latter will stay on the screen until you dismiss them.
To access the full Notification Center, just slide two fingers across the trackpad from its right edge. You'll then see your full notifications list on the right side of your screen. Only the five most recent notifications from each app are visible (you can choose to view fewer) and you can dismiss them by clicking the box on the right side (similar to iOS). Fortunately, you can access the Notification Center from anywhere on your Mac.
Twitter integration
Granted, this may not sound exciting if you don't use Twitter, but it does further demonstrate Apple's unifying intentions with Mountain Lion. As with iOS, you now can tweet directly from a variety of apps as long as you've integrated your Twitter account. I used it with Photo Booth and Safari, but it also works with Quick Look and Preview. The user experience was seamless and worked just as it does on iOS.
You also can add a location and integrate your list of Twitter pals with the profiles in the Contacts app. Still to come is Mac App Store integration so you can tweet a link to an app directly from the store.
iCloud integration
As the first major Mac OS release since the introduction of iCloud, Mountain Lion opens access to cloud-based features so you can keep up with important info on all your devices. As mentioned, Notes, Reminders, and iMessages created on your Mac will be synced with other devices. And in turn, when you initiate those apps on a mobile device like an iPad or iPhone, the content will appear on your Mac.
A couple of iCloud features will not be available in the developer version I used, but Apple says they are coming soon. First off will be the ability to view, create, and edit the same iCloud documents from your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Any changes made on any device will be reflected on all devices through iCloud. Also coming is a new Document Library that will launch with apps that support Documents in the Cloud. Besides giving you access to your latest documents regardless of where they were created, it'll mean you'll also be able to create Document folders in much the same way you create folders on iOS (drag and drop a document on top of another). You'll also have a Share button built in to the Document Library so you can quickly send a document via Mail, Messages, or AirDrop.
Game Center
The gaming hub that has been a big success on iOS devices, with more than 100 million registered users, will now be available for Mac in Mountain Lion. Though it is not yet available in my preview of the new OS, Apple says you'll be able to set up and personalize your gaming experience with a Game Center app for Mac. As with the iOS app, you'll be able to view friends already in your gaming network and discover new gaming fans through Game Center recommendations.
Apple says that Game Center for Mac will come with all the bells and whistles found in the iOS version, including the vast user base already registered for the service. You'll be able to discover new friends; browse games your friends are playing; view leaderboards to see how your scores match up; and earn achievements in games across all your devices. You'll also be able to play multiplayer games across all your devices (with friends or automatched opponents), participate in in-game voice chat, and receive Game Center notifications. Apple says the Game Kit for developers will include tools for creating multiplayer games that can be played on a Mac or your favorite iOS device.
Share Sheets
While I'm on the subject of sharing, Mountain Lion adds an easy way to share photos, videos, and links from within an app. After clicking the share icon imported form iOS, you'll be able to create Share Sheets and then pass on the content via Mail, message, AirDrop, and popular third-party social-networking sites.
I like that the Share button detects the file type selected and only lists sharing options that are appropriate for that file type. So if you're looking at a Web page in Safari, for example, you'll have options to share via e-mail, Message, or Twitter. While Share Sheets are not a groundbreaking new feature, they will obviate the need to drag files or links to other apps before sending. Apple says that the Share Sheet API will let developers take advantage of sharing services as well, so people will able to share with others using third-party apps with a consistent and convenient interface.
AirPlay Mirroring
I hate to use the word "ecosystem" again, but that's definitely what this feature is all about. With AirPlay Mirroring, you can take what's on your Mac and present it on an HDTV via Apple TV. The video stream is 720p and it will match the resolution of the external screen that you're using. Apple hasn't activated this feature yet so I wasn't able to use it, but it sounds very cool.
In an app-centric universe, security concerns continue to evolve beyond the common question of whether you should download that attachment in an unfamiliar e-mail. Fortunately, Apple's app stores both for the Mac and iTunes have always offered a deep level of protection, but a new feature called Gatekeeper spins it in a new direction.
In addition to existing OS X features like download validation and blocklists, Gatekeeper lets users choose where their apps can originate. If you don't want to take any chances, you can choose to allow apps only from the Mac Store, but if you're looking for more freedom you can designate all third-party apps as acceptable. You can mark your selection in the Security & Privacy menu in System preferences.
Most people, however, don't see things just in black and white, which is why I think the third option will be the most popular. Smack in the middle of the two extremes, it lets users download all apps from the Mac App Store and all third-party developers that are signed with an Apple Developer ID. Any approved Apple developer can obtain an ID, which the developer can assign to titles that live outside Apple's stores. Then, when Mountain Lion detects a Developer ID on a third-party app, it will confirm that the title is not malware, that it has not been tampered with, and that the developer is not known to have distributed malware.
For the security-conscious (which, in all seriousness, should be everyone), the Developer ID is an impressive step forward in protection. Screening the apps in your own store is one thing, but adding the ability to track titles living elsewhere is quite another. What's more, it's a step that none of Apple's rivals are taking. Of course, there are some obvious concerns such as whether an ID is still tracked if the developer leaves Apple's program. Apple hasn't answered that question yet, but I imagine that we'll get more information in the final release.
When Apple announces a new "cat" with an OS X upgrade, you know that it's about more than just bug fixes and interface tweaks. With Mountain Lion, the same rule applies. Though most of the features (Gatekeeper being an obvious exception) are familiar and not monumentally significant, the upgrade significantly changes the user experience. By bringing iOS features to the desktop, unifying the interface, and pushing your data to multiple devices, it marks a closer union between the Mac and Apple's mobile devices. And as CNET's Scott Stein will tell you, that's something that we've needed for a long time.
As mentioned, we'll save making our final assessment of Mountain Lion until we get the final version. But even in this early preview, it's clear what Apple's intentions are. Sure, I'd like a few changes, but it is the right course to take. Even better, Apple appears to be on the road to accomplishing it.

Strong Arm Steady
Live booking, North America: email@example.com
Strong Arm Steady was formed in the shadows of the West Coast's Death Row Records movement, which at one time, loomed large over much of the region's talent. Many Los Angeles artists—themselves students and children of Death Row—were becoming frustrated at the gang mentality that colored perceptions of their burgeoning underground. Out of that frustration came resourcefulness and unity, and as unity grew into community, L.A.'s indie scene began to blossom, not in opposition to Death Row, but as an alternative. They are the new generation. They are Strong Arm Steady.
The original crew consists of like-minded MCs, DJs, and producers who are among California's best: Krondon, Phil Da Agony, Mitchy Slick, Xzibit, Chase Infinite, Planet Asia, DJ Khalil, and DJ Truly OdD. To best represent the Strong Arm Steady brand for the purposes of recording and touring, the collective was pared down to four in Krondon, Phil Da Agony, Mitchy Slick, and Xzibit. As the business of music came more into play, Xzibit departed, leaving the remaining three as the group's core.
Krondon, the literal and figurative voice of Strong Arm Steady, was born and raised in South Central, L.A. and began his career with the classic "The Rules" 12-inch collaboration with Truly OdD. While coming up in local hip-hop circles, Krondon would often encounter Phil Da Agony of the Barbershop MCs and King Tee's Likwit Crew. The pair began hanging out in the late 90s, forming a friendship that would soon become a career partnership.
San Diego native and rap veteran Mitchy Slick was enlisted by way of his appearance on Xzibit's Weapons of Mass Destruction album in 2004 and soon helped Strong Arm Steady establish their influence in the mixtape market with that year's Gangs of L.A. Mixtapes became the crew's foundation as they were among the first West Coast artists who weren't DJs or DJ-affiliated to break through in the same manner as the platinum-selling 50 Cent and Young Jeezy. From Gangs of L.A. to this year's Gang Mentality, Strong Arm Steady found their voice by speaking directly to their fans and taking control of their own buzz, bridging the gap between independent and mainstream along the way.
Strong Arm Steady first joined with Stones Throw to release In Search of Stoney Jackson an LP produced entirely by Madlib, longtime friend of Phil Da Agony and extended Strong Arm Steady family. The album's conception owes a great deal to World Famous Beat Junkie, J.Rocc, who provided the trio with close to 200 of the prolific beatsmith's tracks to choose from. It's a hip-hop jam session, with the group acting as the rhythm section for an all-star cast of guest vocalists.
The group released another album, Arms & Hammers, on the Blacksmith imprint in 2011, but returns to Stones Throw again for a followup to Stoney Jackson, teaming again with a single producer, Brooklyn's Statik Selektah for Stereotype.

"I enjoy watching students wrestle with texts and big questions, because it is in these efforts that they truly begin to grow as people."
Students who study education at Transylvania do not merely study techniques and methods. Rather, as associate professor Amy Maupin puts it, the study of education at Transylvania is a "truly unique experience" in which students develop a "deep theoretical understanding of education and its many issues."
Those students will also be able to articulate a philosophy of teaching and learning that is "grounded in many of the other disciplines that intersect with ours," she says, disciplines such as sociology, philosophy, history, anthropology, English, and the arts. All of these, Maupin adds, have an important place in the study of education.
In her role of teaching future teachers, Maupin has adopted a philosophy centered on the notion that she must create a "special space that is safe and brimming with curious energy" and anchored in the belief that teaching is an "act of love."
"Because I value my students as whole human beings, and because I see knowledge as something more than static facts, figures, and textbook materials, I believe that teaching is an act of love that empowers students to construct meaning from the disciplines as they connect to their lives," she says.
It should come as no surprise, then, that Maupin most enjoys her engagement with students. "It is rare, indeed, that I leave a class session without feeling injected with a good dose of what it means to be a college learner today."

SectorFood and Drink and Confectionery
Cadbury is celebrating its Creme Egg season this year with a new campaign.
Goo Dares Wins, an integrated marketing campaign, sees Creme Egg becoming the first Cadbury brand to link into the Spots v Stripes initiative that aims to get the entire nation playing games.
Cadbury has embarked on an integrated marketing campaign involving advertising, digital, PR, events, and sales promotion channels working with Fallon, PrettyGreen, PHD and CMW. Goo Dares Wins kicks off with the launch of the website and will see a new TV advertising campaign begin on the 1st of January.
The adt, produced by Fallon, aims to show how there's a mischievous streak in all of us just waiting to be awoken. The ad will air in the UK from January 2011 for 17 weeks, with a media plan including 30 second and 10 second spots being placed by PHD.
The ad shows Creme Egg creating dares for the public to undertake and the eggs themselves reviewing the ridiculous dares. A second ad uses content taken from the Goo Dares Wins website providing Creme Egg fans the opportunity to be featured in the ad.
The Goo Dares Wins ad was directed by Michael Patrick Jann.
