Jennifer Aniston "Money Trouble" Claim NOT True
Jennifer Aniston is NOT having "money trouble," despite a report. Gossip Cop can exclusively bust the story.
"Money Trouble! Jennifer Aniston Strapped For Cash After Latest Box Office Flops, Pals Claim," reads a headline from RadarOnline, which dramatically asks, "Can her career be saved?" The story alleges Aniston is "in the middle of a cash-flow crisis," writing that "although the 47-year-old actress is worth $130 million on paper, her string of movie flops and work hiatus have contributed to a cash shortfall. Now, desperate Aniston has all her hopes for a much-needed hit riding on her flick Office Christmas Party, which rolls out in December."
A so-called "insider" is quoted as saying, "Jen's in dire need of a payday, and there's a huge amount riding on this film being a success. Her most recent movies — Life of Crime, She's Funny That Way and Cake — all lost money at the box office and it's gotten Jen super-stressed."
The site goes on to claim Aniston is "haunted by her poor reception at the box office." Says the outlet's alleged tipster, "She's starting to wonder if she's cursed, particularly when her rivals like Sandra Bullock and even Melissa McCarthy are doing better than ever with their numbers." The snitch even adds that Aniston may "have to lean on Justin's paycheck to keep the bills paid," which RadarOnline speculates "could further strain her already rocky marriage to 'The Leftovers' hunk."
Of course, Aniston and husband Justin Theroux don't have a "rocky marriage," but that's not what the webloid wants readers to believe. In fact, the anti-Aniston outlet peddled a similar article about a "career crisis" back in May. And in July, the site insisted Aniston was pregnant.
That tells you everything you need to know about RadarOnline and its Aniston "insiders." They're clueless. There's no "money trouble." This is just a webloid that has trouble telling the truth. A rep for the star exclusively tells Gossip Cop, "It's complete nonsense. Actors get paid when the film is made, not when it's released."
The spokesperson further notes, "And isn't it silly that this story comes out the same week she is named [one of] the top 5 highest earning actresses by Forbes? Who would you believe Forbes or RadarOnline?" Touché!

What follows is text for the (currently TBS) section on Content-MD5 header. There are objections to it, but rough consensus is believed to exist. The most likely outcome of the objections (IMHO) is that a new header for content integrity and authentication mechanisms will be proposed for HTTP/1.2. If there are any problems you have with this, please let me know, or I will believe enough consensus exists to make add this to the 1.1 draft to close this issue. -------------------- 10.13 Content-MD5 The Content-MD5 entity-header field is an MD5 digest of the entity-body, as defined in [RFC 1864], for the purpose of providing an end-to-end integrity check of the entity-body. ContentMD5 = "Content-MD5" ":" digest digest = <base64 of 128 bit MD5 digest as per RFC 1864> The Content-MD5 header may optionally be generated by origin servers, and functions as an integrity check of the entity-body. Only origin-servers may generate the Content-MD5 headers: proxies and gateways MUST NOT generate it, as this would defeat its value and an end-to-end integrity check. Any recipient of the entity-body, including gateways and proxies, MAY check that the digest value in the header matches that of the entity-body as received. When being generated, the MD5 digest is computed based on the value of the entity-body after Content-Encoding (if any) but before Transfer-Encoding (if any) is applied; when being checked, after Transfer-Encoding has been removed, but before Content-Encoding has been removed. There are several ways in which the application of Content-MD5 to HTTP entity-bodies differs from its application to MIME entity-bodies. One is that HTTP, unlike MIME, does not use Content-Transfer-Encoding, and does use Transfer-Encoding and Content-Encoding. Another is that, unlike MIME, the digest is computed over the entire entity-body, even if it happens to be a MIME multi-part content-type. (Note that the multi-part bodies may themselves have Content-MD5 headers.) Another is that HTTP more frequently uses binary content types than MIME, so it is worth noting that in such cases, the byte order used to compute the digest is network byte order. Lastly, the canonical form of text types in HTTP includes several line break conventions, so conversion to CR-LF is not always required before computing or checking the digest: any acceptable convention should be left unaltered for inclusion in the digest. > Note: the net result of the above is that the digest is computed on the content that would be sent over-the-wire, in > network byte order, but prior to any transfer coding being > applied. ---------------------------------------------------- Paul J.

Toshiba have just recently announced the Toshiba Satellite T215 for the US market, and its already available to order.
The Toshiba Satellite T215 is a 11.6-inch thin and light notebook powered by AMD hardware. It is basically the AMD version of the Toshiba T210 which was announced very recently in the UK with Intel hardware.
The Toshiba T215 officially goes on sale this Sunday (June 20th), but J&R are already listing two versions of the Toshiba Satellite T215D for $470 and $499 for the single core and dual core version respectively.
Toshiba are saying the T215 takes off where netbooks left off, giving you more power and screen space, but maintaining portability and battery life. Five hours battery life is expected.
Design wise it looks like a larger version of their netbook offerings with a metallic interior. It measures 284 x 202.8 x 16.6 – 26.2 mm and weighs just 1.48 kg / 3.3 lbs.
Both models both feature an 11.6-inch LCD with a 1366 x 768 pixel resolution, 2GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, ATI Radeon HD 4225 graphics, HDMI output, eSATA, and Windows 7 Home Premium.
The highend model (Toshiba T215D-S1150) features the dual core AMD Athlon Neo K325 1.3GHz processor, and is available for $499. The Toshiba T215D-S1140RD is $30 less at $470 and features the single core Athlon Neo K125 1.7GHz processor.

All's well that ends well. An easy an uneventful trip to Brisbane, and we're cleared into the country without a hitch. We arrived at the Customs dock at 0830 this morning, local time, with the trip lasting about 4 and three quarter days. Though we did slow down last night to time our customs arrival so perfectly.
Everyone here is delightful and helpful, and they say "G'day" over the VHF radio when they help you. We've yet to clear into a country that was more organized or streamlined. They were literally waiting for us at the customs dock (or the "Q" dock as it is often called, since arriving yachts fly a plain yellow flag – the letter "Q" – for "Quarantine"). Five minutes after Border Patrol left, Biosecurity showed up. They were all helpful, friendly, and gave us tips on places to stay and things to do in Brisbane.
No regular internet yet, so no posts or pictures. We're moored at the "Botanical Gardens" in downtown Brisbane. We've gone from mountains from the cockpit to skyscrapers.
We're off to go explore and find out what's nearby.

While we had a pretty decent feel for the game when we played it on the test servers prior to launch, we wanted to wait until multiplayer was fully functional until we gave our final verdict. After all, SimCity is primarily a "multiplayer" game."

Sorry, no definitions found. Check out and contribute to the discussion of this word!
Sorry, no etymologies found.
Their talk, too, about the shadow of kenoma -- that is, of a vacuum -- has in all points turned out false.
ANF01. The Apostolic Fathers with Justin Martyr and Irenaeus
From him was derived the parallel between the ideal world (the pleroma) and the lower world of phenomena (the kenoma).
Against the Gnostic theses [497] Irenæus and his successors, apart from the proof from prescription, adduced the following intrinsic considerations: (1) In the case of the Gnostics and Marcion the Deity lacks absoluteness, because he does not embrace everything, that is, he is bounded by the _kenoma_ or by the sphere of a second God; and also because his omnipresence, omniscience, and omnipotence have a corresponding limitation.

Mablethorpe Royal British Legion pulled out all the stops over the weekend in celebration on Armed Forces Day and raised over £1,500.
On Saturday the British Legion marked Armed Forces Day in style with a number of different events happening all across Mablethorpe, Woodthorpe and even in the Yorkshire Peaks.
Armed Forces Day commemorates the service of men and women in the British Armed Forces .
Kicking off with the events were collection points in the Co-operative and Lidl in the town and involved members of the British Legion.
The organisation also received some welcomed support from 1228 Mablethorpe Air Cadets who took part in a bag pack during the day to support the Poppy Appeal.
It is estimated that around £1,200 was raised from the Co-op and Lidl collections alone for the British Legion Poppy Appeal.
Mablethorpe Conversative Club also held an open day with music in aid of the cause.
Following these activities, the charity crusade continued at Woodthorpe Hall where WO-2 Alan Brooks and Staff Sergeant Pete Rogers took part in a charity golf challenge.
Woodthorpe Hall also had cakes on sale throughout the day and later on held an auction and 1940s evening.
Poppy Appeal Organiser Mark Reddin was delighted with the day's activities.
He said: "We had an absolutely brilliant day, which was very busy.
"There was a lot more going on this year compared to previous years and everyone really pulled out all of the stops. People were doing events all over the place, we haven't got the final total yet but it is somewhere in the region of £1,500, if not more.
"Not including the money raised from Saturday, the Poppy Appeal has already raised over £27,000 for this year which is amazing."
Debbie Prince also supported the Mablethorpe Royal British Legion by undertaking the task of the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge.
Debbie also took round one of British Legion's Standards and was pictured holding it with pride at each peak she reached.
She completed the challenge in 13.5 hours.

German tech blog, mobileCTRL, received a couple tasty BlackBerry rumors this week.
First, the BlackBerry code-named "Venice" is to be named Avenger. Wow, I hope that's not true. With all of the comic book hype in the movies and on TV these days that'd be a pretty poorly timed name. Not to mention corny for a phone name.
The other is that the supposed release of an Android version BlackBerry Passport is false. This contradicts a couple of things. First, popular tech leaker, evleaks, reported two such instances of the Silver Edition Passport running Android. Both are renderings but they matched up nicely with this video showing the SE Passport doing just that. There is speculation that it was an early prototype that the video maker was able to get his hands on. That explanation lines up nicely with the fact his video does not show any of BlackBerry's Android productivity suite in action.
I'm taking the rumors at face value. Though mobileCTRL says their source is straight from a BlackBerry employee. I guess we'll see. I'm getting tired of saying that. BRING ON THE SLIDER.

If you were making your own custom movement(top down), and you wanted to know when the object was turning left, or right... how would you set it up?
My first thoughts were to have the current angle sent to a private variable, and then compare that variable... if its less than current, you have a right turn... etc.
Seems a little complicated, especially on the timing.... any thoughts on a better way?

Guess Who Was on TV Last night…….ME.
I had the pleasure of meeting Dog the Bounty Hunter and his wife Beth, last year. They were in town for a wedding and to do a bit of "hunting". They were super nice, and gave a great interview. The really cool part,,,,,,,,,,,They were filming when I met them, and I got to be on the show. Only a few minutes at the beginning, but it still was amazing. The show Dog and Beth on the Hunt aired last night. Guess I am a superstar now!!! Getty Images

Dramatic Hothouse Foliage
2011, Dorling Kindersley Limited
This popular elephant ear, Alocasia amazonica (foreground), is a striking houseplant, with deep green leaves accentuated by whitish or light green leaf veins.
If you're fed up with the monotony of a neutral room, inject a dash of dazzling color with tropical foliage plants grown in contemporary containers. Their flamboyant good looks make them eye-catching focal points, and they are best displayed in pots on their own, rather than in mixed groups where they will fight against others for the limelight.
Elephant's Ear
With leaves that measure a whopping 18 inches (45 cm) long, this plant's common name is no exaggeration. Held on sturdy stems, the arrow-shaped, glossy, dark green foliage (pictured above) is truly spectacular, with its bright silver veins creating a beautiful pattern. Ideal for a bright location indoors away from full sun; it will not do well and start to lose its intense color in a gloomy corner. It also requires heat to thrive and will drop its leaves in cool conditions, but if you restore warm temperatures, within a day or two the plant will recover and produce new foliage.
Plant Care
Keep the compost moist at all times, but avoid overwatering, which could lead to root rot. In the winter, allow the compost to dry out completely before watering again. During the growing season, mist plants regularly to raise humidity levels, and feed every month with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Prevent the plants from looking untended by snipping off dead, dying or damaged leaves.
Peacock Plant
For a spectacular display of variegated foliage, try the peacock plant. Native to Brazil, it is a bushy clump of paddle-shaped leaves with dark green edges and ovals of dark green marking the surface. Turn the leaf over and the same pattern is repeated in purple, while the silvery effect is produced by netlike see-through areas on the foliage. Plants are shown off to their best advantage in a neutral or light-colored pot and will enjoy a sheltered bright spot away from drafts, with high humidity.
Caring for Peacock Plants
Water plants regularly but allow the compost to almost dry out between each application, and reduce watering even further in winter. Spray the leaves during the summer to raise humidity levels, and feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer to boost growth.
Among the most spectacular foliage plants you can grow in the home, crotons come in a range of colors and leaf shapes. Originating from Malaysia and the islands of the East Pacific, they are grown for their leathery leaves, which are splashed, dotted, or flushed with the bright colors you find in a child's crayon box.
In their native environment they grow into large trees, but they make compact plants when grown in containers in the home. To thrive, water plants regularly, reducing the frequency in the winter. Mist leaves with a handheld sprayer, and feed every month or so during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
Choosing Crotons
C. variegatum var. pictum 'Petra' has spear-shaped green leaves with dramatic yellow veins, while 'Gold Star' produces gold-splashed foliage. For bolder colors, try 'Excellent,' which has large forked leaves marked with green, yellow and red patterns.

Ask a Car Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Hello and welcome! I'm Billy and i will assist you with this.
Have you tried starting using a second key (spare key if available)?
and you still get the same problem?
same one
is the engine cranking? starter operating?
yes its cranking but start
wont start
do you have any warning light on, flashing (stop! warning) etc..?
did you check for any blown fuses?
and did this happen after a service or other...or just started suddnly?
yes all is ok
did this happen after a service or other...or just started suddenly?
park up on Monday then would start today
This could be the immobilizer... or even the engine control module (or the central electronics box), either way, manually and without a scan tool you can only try the following:
used a hand held computer on it but errors coming up
- remove the battery negative cable for a minute or so (to try and reset the system), be aware that you will need the radio code after. Having tried this, try locking and unlocking using the remote fob. Having tried all these, and if the problem persists, the vehicle woudl require connecting to a diagnostics computer (scan tool), to retrieve the fault codes and figure out what is causing this. And proceed accordingly.
what error codes are you getting using the hand held computer?
ok.... and where you able to check the immobilizer module using this tool (which hand held computer did you use)?
"were you able" sorry for the mispell...
a scan held one
This needs a lexia tool to check with...as the immobilizer module cannot be accessed using generic tools, in case it is the problem. So check the battery issue (hard reset), and proceed accordingly.
PS: was the tool able to communicate with the vehicle ?
the hand held tool.... was it able to communicate with the vehicle (control modules)?
ok.... this points away from the central electronics module...so leaves the immobilizer (most likely)...
The only way to proceed now, would be trying a hard reset, and if this does not work, you'll need to hook on to a lexia scan tool, and check the immobilizer system, and pair the keys again if needed.
it is asking for code
what is? the radio? or on the instrument cluster?
where do you see it asking for the code?
instrument cluster
ok... did you check for the security card near your owner's manual? (although most dealers in the UK do not include this for security purposes)
economy mode comes up
no card
ECO mode comes up, meaning that the battery was low. A hard reset would cure this, if the battery is good enough. and if not, this would need a dealer's scan tool (lexia) to reset.
PS: the eco mode, if not cured by the hard reset, would only need a few minutes at dealer's to reset... i'm afraid this is the only way.
so u cnt
sorry so u cant give me a code
Not from where i am.... i have the lexia, and i can do it... but not remotely. You'll need to get to the nearest dealer to reset.
PS: no one will or can give you the code. It is not activated in UK (so it will not work). Additionally, It is illegal.
ok does that mean I have paid 27 pound for no fix
I did explain how these systems work. I did offer a second route you can try (hard reset), which is likely to fix your issue. But the code for UK cars does not exist.
I hate to be the one telling the bad news. But being honest with you, i'm saving you a lot of time, money and effort.
Still, if you are not satisfied with the answer, i will report this to customer service.
what is a hard reset
removing the battery cable for a minute or so.... making sure when it is off, that it has plenty of juice, if not, recharge and reconnect.
PS: at dealer's they should not charge you more than one labor hour for resetting the immo, and the eco mode.
Thank you for your trust! Get back to me if you need more assistance...Thank you in advance for the positive rating...http://www.justanswer.com/car/expert-billy/
report this to customer service am not happy
as you wish.

Is this crazy?
I built a pair of Phoenix open baffle speakers this Spring. I love the way they sound for certain types of music (jazz vocals, classical) but they lack punch and bass and sound too smooth and airy for the type of music I listen to most of the time - electronic/house. The speakers are designed to accurately produce a live performance. There's nothing very "live" about house music... Not that I listen to Metallica all that often, but I auditioned the speakers with Metallica, and it sounded more like a boy band! These are also fronts of a surround music/HT setup.
Would it be crazy to take the drivers out of these boxes and put them into a sealed or ported box (MTMWW-style) to get more bass and attack? I've also got a pair of Lambda SB12 I was planning to mate with Mangers... I could use the Lambdas in an MTMW and the Peerless XLS with the Mangers... I'd like to continue using the 3-way XO, but will proably need to change out some resistors and caps to adjust the XO frequencies. (SIDE Q: Has anyone ever used all Pass (or other class A) amps with a 3-way active set-up? I'd love to build these, but I'm afraid the current draw and heat produced would make it impossible.)
I'd still keep the Phoenix boxes for later on in life, when my musical tastes change a bit.
Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated.

You exposed the drawback of open baffles - hehe
If you are hardcore about music and find
it frustrating to find the right system, step
back and analyze each individual component
in the speaker system. That's what I do
and I find complete happiness. The cost
to do this is higher but you sleep well at night
*and* you don't have to keep building systems
through out your life time - hehe
Make a list of tweeters, midranges, woofers that
you *think* you like. Buy some samples of each and do some
listening tests on each driver by itself. Spend a
month auditioning the drivers without using filtering
(except the tweeters which need some form of
crossover - heh). If you can find drivers that sound
nice to you unfiltered, then you have completed
one part of your quest.
My latest project had these drivers on my list.
Tweeter - Raven2, ESg3, SA8535
I chose SA driver. It exceeded my design goals by a
wide margin. The tweeter quest is over.
Midranges - focal 7k2, focal 6wm, phl 1120, phl 1660, phl 2520,
pr180m0. This took a month to figure out, they all sounded
good except 6wm. In the end, I had to mate the tweeter
to each midrange to do the final test. I picked 2520.
The midrange quest is over.
Woofer - Eminence 12", 15", 18", Lambda TD15.
The bass subsystem is taking a long time to figure out,
should I make a 4 way or 3 way. hehe Eventually, I received
some tips and considered lambda woofers to simplify
my 4 way to 3 way. After testing, this woofer exceeded
my expectations.
My design goal was to build a high impact sound system
without using a prosound solution, ie, compression horns,
10" midranges, etc. To build the high impact sound system,
I wanted to only use high sensitivity drivers so I made
the list as shown above. I'm not saying that these are
the only good sounding drivers, they were the only
high sensitivity drivers to make the list, any other were
crossed out for whatever reason.
Using these methods and goals has helped me
find audio paradise.
My next step is to finalize cabinet design - lol

they said it was great for any music other than
rock n' roll. When they listened to AC/DC, it sounded

I don't know. I listen to house, electronic, industrial and even punk and my open baffle speakers sound great. Not that I listen only to those speakers, I have other closed box speakers in a house, but the open baffle ones are just the best (for all type of music). Maybe you just have to get used to them (you've been conditioned too much by closed boxes. )
Do something really well. See how much time it takes. It might be a product, a work of art, who knows? Then give it away cheaply, just because you feel that it should not cost so much, even if it took a lot of time and expensive materials to make it. - JC

Great idea, but...
what do you do with the drivers you turn down?
My goal certainly isn't to find one pair of speakers for the rest of my life. Even if I thought that was possible, I'm in it more for the building experience than anything else. I'd be building myself out of a hobby! More importantly, I think that my listening tastes will evolve over time. As much as I like Naked Music, Jazzanova, Mark Farina and Derrick Carter right now, I don't see myself listening to them 10 years from now. I think I'd like to keep these Phoenix around until then, because they do perform magnificently with the types of music I imagine I'll be listening to, then.
But, I spent a fair amount on these drivers 6 months ago, and I'd like to see if I can use them in a different design with more impact before setting them aside and dropping another $1,500 on more drivers. SL measured a fair number of drivers before choosing these based on exceedingly low distortion numbers. Although he was looking to use them in a different manner (open baffle instead of a box), I don't see any reason why the low distortion numbers wouldn't also apply to box speakers (although I'm open to arguments counter to this).
Admittedly, the Mangers may not have been an ideal choice. I got them used at a substantial discount, so I thought I'd give them a try. I remember reading a post from Petter saying that he wanted to use the Mangers as rear speakers (which is my intention, as well). As rear speakers, I think they may perform very admirably - wide dispersion and quickness and the low SPL levels aren't much of a concern, given that they are rear speakers to be placed close to the listening position. Again, they may be better-suited to Jazz/Classical music.
It's getting to be winter, here, making woodworking outside impractical. I think I'll probably spend the winter reading and investigating different drivers/boxes and drawing up plans for the spring.
I'd be interested in hearing what you decide on for boxes for your project, as well as your proposed XO - are you going active or passive?

What drivers are you using in your open baffles?
The sound I'd like to accomplish is a low, rumbling bass line, covered by tight, driving mids and a sweet, melodic high-end, drifting over the top. I feel the Phoenix are just what I'm looking for on the high end - transparent and melodic.
I feel like the bass line is not rumbling at all, but very tight and controlled. Bass drum kicks don't stretch out the way they were intended. The woofers are not really present until the point where a number of speakers would be overdriven. That's the objective with these speakers, but, it turns out, it may not be what I'm looking for. I could try doubling-up the woofers (to 4 per side) or adding a sub...
The mids are a bit too airy, and seem to have too much depth, so that they create an empty feeling. This may very well be because my listening room (my whole apartment) has 15' ceilings... I know it's important to design a speaker with the room in mind, but, it's an apartment, and I don't plan to be there for more than another year...
Also, house music is made to be played in large clubs, on massive sound systems, which are often overdriven and not even close to low distortion (with the exception of Phazon(sp?) systems). Friends of mine who make records all have that type of sound in mind when writing the music. My idea of a live performance of house music is hearing a dj spin at a club, so, it only makes sense that getting closer to live for me would involve a closed box. I think the sound I'd try to emulate would be the Phazon system that was once running at Twilo, in New York. From what I've heard from former employees is that Twilo spent well over $2 million building and maintaing that system, and that the designer went in a couple of times a month to tweak. As loud as it got in there, you could always talk to people near you without having to shout.

One thing is, you try to emulate the sound of a club in your apartament. I, OTOH, almost never go to clubs, so I don't try to get the same sound in my house. I have my idea how I want the music to sound and I tweak as long as I get that sound.
So I have found that properly tweaked system plays Deep Dish, Paul Oakenfold as good as Dire Straits, Pink Floyd or Apoptygma Berzerk and Front 242 (or Clash for that matter)
I'm using Raven1 tweeter (not that I couldn't buy something better today, I got this one for last 8 years), Triangle midranges (those are the best sounding mids I tried so far) and Focal Audiom 12" and 15" woofers (those are in Grand Slamms ).
I'm using bi-amp system so I can taylor woofer's response as I like. I can never imagine more natural bass than the one coming from an open baffle. It might not be rumbling but it is very natural. I prefer the last.

Dust collectors for now - lol
I can use later, slap a box together and sell it to friends - lo
Tell them that these speakers are the greatest sounding speakers I've heard"... hehehe

Which model? I haven't tried that brand yet, I'm always
looking for interesting drivers.
What have you compared them to?

I remember seeing pictures of these speakers many moons ago in another thread. Do you have pictures of the rear? If I remember correctly, you're bi-amping with two Aleph monoblocks per side, no? If so, do you run into any issues with excessive heat or current draw? As I mentioned above, I'd really like to try a couple of Alephs, but I'm afraid of size, heat and current draw overload. Maybe I could get away with it if I passively crossed the mids and tweeters and used Class A/B's for the center and rear?

Did you use a Linkwitz Transform circuit to boost the bottom octave? Do you have a way to measure the FR? If so Id first check that everything is working the way it should. The DIY and Pro open baffles Ive heard are outstanding except the very bottom registers (40hz and below) so if everything is OK with the crossover and such and you still want more bottom end then just add a good Sub. Something like a Sono-Tube enclosure with a Tempest driver ($150)
. The Phoenix Speakers are said to be among the best Open Baffle design available for the DIY market, if you used the exact parts and configuration as specified by the Linkwitz site then they should sound very good. Remember they need to be far from all reflection surfaces, practically in the middle of the room, which IMO is the biggest drawback to open baffles, if it werent for that I would be building a pair for myself, or maybe something like Peters.
Sure do like those speakers Peter made, very impressive work and good finishing skills.
Here is a Pic of a Brama 12 sub, the best choice IMO ($439)

KRAKOW — Yesterday, as President Obama flubbed an intended tribute to a Polish resistance fighter by using the description "Polish death camp," I was inside what remains of the Auschwitz and Birkenau camps near Krakow in southeast Poland. From here, it is easy to understand the furor the president set off.
To be sure, it was not the stupid, insensitive mistake Obama's political rivals are making it out to be
. It was only a few months ago that the Associated Press Style Book, the journalistic Bible for correct usage and fair treatment in print, decreed that Polish death camps should instead be referred to as "Nazi camps in Poland " or "German-run extermination centers in occupied Poland." I admit that until my visit this week I thought this change mostly a matter of political correctness. Polish, after all, is a fitting adjective for a place in Poland. The AP was catering to pressure from Poles who have increasingly been demanding the wording distinction.
Now I see why a bit.
They are sick of having their role in World War II depicted as some king of joke. The stupid (insert P-word here) who tried to fight off German tanks on horses, who approved of Hitler's Final Solution because they didn't care for Jews either, who sat by helpless and hopeless while the US and its allies did the heavy lifting,
The camps show a different tale from the history I learned. Hitler felt the same about the Poles as he did the Jews – they were inferior, fit only as slaves to the Germans. From the instant Germans swept across the border into Poland in 1939 after an invented provocation staged by Germans in Polish uniform Hitler turned the whole country into an extermination camp. Treatment of Polish Jews, we know about. But in addition, the teaching of Polish language, history and culture was forbidden and teachers were killed. Priests and clerics were targeted and religions – except that God ordered obedience to the Germans – was outlawed. Radios and newspapers were criminalized. Rationing was enforced that cut caloric intake by two thirds – even more for Jews.
The plan was to force the expulsion or outright kill off all the Poles not young enough to be "Germanized" to make more "living space" for Germans.
In Auschwitz, a former troop barracks in a little village 90 minutes from Krakow that is remote still even after 60 years, the Nazis set up a Polish slave labor camp. "Arbeit Macht Frei" proclaims the gate of the camp under which hundreds of thousands of men were marched to backbreaking physical labor constructing the camp and roads. It was a lie; there was no freedom. The Nazis wasted no equipment on these major building projects. They didn't have to with all the free labor at their command. And if the workers died off at astonishing rates, so much the better.
Auschwitz worked out so well that the Nazis opened an expansion camp near by. At Birkenau the Nazis' Death Industry flourished. Into this camp they shipped not just Poles but Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, political enemies from throughout Europe. They arrived by the trainload-full, 4,000 at a time. It is not easy to kill and dispose of that many people, but the Nazis were entrepreneurial.
They stripped new arrivals of all their possessions, their jewelry, their glasses and prayer shawls, their hair used in making weapons, and just before the "showers" the clothes on their back. Tanks were constructed in Birkenau to collect prisoners' excrement for conversion into methane to power the camp. Gold teeth were pulled out of corpses before they were cremated and ashes dumped into the Vistula or over the ground at the back of the camp.
Two million Poles of all religions died in camps that their ancestors do not want called Polish camps. Hard to see that as unreasonable.
The most visited museum in Poland is the Museum of the Warsaw Uprising in the capital. It's a fascinating, inter-active series of exhibits about the effort of Poles to strike back at the Nazis. This happened in 1944 as Soviet troops were moving toward Poland and could have been relied on to chase away the Nazis. Like that calvary charge against Panzers, Poles acted with more pride and bravery than caution, bombing German installations, kidnapping Nazi engineers who they forced to disarm unexploded ordinance around the city, and sniping at the occupiers.
The Germans quelled the uprising easily. Just as a plan in 1939 to blow up Hitler as he rode through the center of the city to crow about the capitulation of Poland failed, the uprising fizzled without intervention from the Allies. And then Hitler exacted a horrible toll. He ordered the razing of their capital. Germans numbered buildings to be sure they hit the most culturally and historically significant ones first. The medieval Old Town disappeared, the royal palace was set aflame, 85 percent of Warsaw was crushed into rubble.
The worst part of the history the Poles relate about themselves may be this next part.
The west never backed up the uprising and then never recognized Polish efforts to combat the Third Reich, hence the lingering legacy of anti-Semitism and complicity. And the Soviets actually halted their advance at the Vistula for months before moving into Warsaw, with Stalin reasoning that the leaders of a revolt against Nazi power could be trouble in the Poland of the future he envisioned. Polish leaders not killed in the rubble were imprisoned on a variety of charges and died in Soviet prisons.
The Poles were occupied, in effect, for another 40 years after the war.
I loved Warsaw, which has zero reputation as a tourist attraction, for its feistiness and defiance. The city has rebuilt its Old Town in such exacting accuracy to what the Nazis bombed that UNESCO has made it a World Heritage Site. It looks and feels 200 years old even though it is just 40.
Jan Karski, the resistance fighter Obama honored yesterday, tried to alert the world to the Holocaust. The real outrage to me is not that the president referred incorrectly to the camps Karski was talking about — but that he and other world leaders before and after have done nothing to ensure that such camps are a thing of the past.

The ever-expanding Coldwell Boxing stable added a new member today as undefeated Doncaster prospect Maxi Hughes inked a promotional deal with the popular Yorkshire outfit. Hughes is the latest name to join Coldwell's ranks as the popular promoter has enjoyed a busy summer pursuing a wide range of talent that he believes can go on and carve out successful careers for themselves. After capturing the signatures of Chad Gaynor, Joe Hughes, and Anthony Jevons, Coldwell is showing no signs of slowing down as he aims to bolster his numbers ahead of the new season.
Only 22, Hughes has made an impressive start to his professional career with the only blip on his ledger being a draw against fellow unbeaten prospect Ronnie Clark. After enjoying an eventful stint as an amateur which saw him reach the latter stages of multiple tournaments, Hughes handed in his club vest earlier than expected preferring to test himself in professional waters that he thought his style would float better in. Coldwell believes that his new lightweight is destined for great things.
"We know a lot about Maxi Hughes and we believe we've got ourselves a talented kid for the future," beamed Coldwell. "He's sparred a lot with Curtis Woodhouse and you can see that he's ready to mix at a good level. He's got a lot of guts for a kid who's only had a handful of fights and that exciting style will make him a huge fan favourite. Everyone knows that Coldwell Boxing is all about putting on excellent fights that get fans talking and Maxi Hughes is a fighter who falls right into that category."
Maxi Hughes will return to action on September 28th at "The Warrior Returns" where Curtis Woodhouse faces Dave Ryan.

Patrol boat order for Austal unit
With a combined contract value of approximately A$8 million (about U.S. $4.6 million), the trio of 22 m aluminum monohulls will be built by Austal's Image Marine unit. They are due for delivery by early 2004.
Austal managing director Bob McKinnon said the contract was won against stiff international competition as part of a global tender process, and demonstrated the company's ability to penetrate new markets.
"Securing this contract with the Kuwait Coast Guard, together with our short-listing for the Royal Australian Navy patrol boat project, shows that there is considerable potential for Austal in this market," he said.
Austal, together with its partner Defence Maritime Services, submitted its final proposal for the Royal Australian Navy's patrol boat project in November 2002. Austal and DMS are one of three bidders remaining in the tender process, and it is expected that the contract will be awarded in mid 2003.
Austal's patrol boat experience also includes the design and construction of eight 38 m Bay Class vessels delivered to the Australian Customs Service in 1999 under budget and ahead of schedule.
Image Marine delivered seven 16 m and two 22 m patrol boats to the New South Wales police in 2000, and Austal says the success of these vessels was an important part of the bid for the Kuwait contract.

FAIRBANKS (AP) -- Consider it a mission of mercy.
With winter's grip tightening on the Alaska Interior, the state Department of Fish and Game is looking for a few good ice fishermen to go out and kill some fish before they die.
It's called ''winter kill'' and it happens every year in some of the more than 100 stocked lakes around the region. Fish that are planted in the lakes in the spring run out of oxygen in the winter and die off.
''All the plant material decomposes and there's no oxygen,'' said Cal Skaugstad, a sport fish biologist in charge of Fish and Game's stocking program in the Interior.
There are about a half-dozen lakes and ponds that go anoxic in the winter, Skaugstad said. The die-offs usually occur sometime between January and March, meaning the fish in potentially anoxic lakes have just a month or two left to live.
This year, Fish and Game stocked more than 750,000 fish in Interior lakes and ponds, ranging in size from fingerlings (3-to-4 inches) to catchables (8-to-10 inches). That number included 500,000 rainbow trout and 200,000 silver salmon.
The winter die-offs are a waste of perfectly good fish that anglers have paid to have stocked with their tax dollars. Skaugstad would rather see the fish end in frying pans rather than at the bottom of a pond or lake.
''We put the fish out there for people to harvest,'' he said.
Ken Alt visited Little Lost Lake recently and wasn't disappointed with what he found. The small lake is located next to Quartz Lake, about 80 miles west of Fairbanks.
After catching only one rainbow trout in two days of fishing at Quartz Lake, Alt and two companions pulled in 11 rainbows ranging from 14- to 16 inches in 90 minutes of fishing at Little Lost Lake.
''They're beautiful and in good shape,'' said Alt, president of the Interior chapter of Trout Unlimited. ''If you want to catch rainbows, that's the place to go.''
Fish and Game put 1,000 catchable-size rainbow trout in Little Lost Lake in May and nobody knows how many are left, though Alt and his partners didn't have any trouble finding fish.
''I fished there this fall and had fantastic fishing in the open water,'' Alt said.
Little Lost Lake is super productive, Skaugstad said. ''It's only nine- or 10 feet deep, the water's warm and there's all kind of food. It's perfect for rainbow trout.''
Surprisingly, one reason there are more fish in some of the stocked lakes than in previous years is that more anglers are releasing the fish they catch rather than taking them home. That despite liberal bag limits of 10 fish per day per angler.
According to Fish and Game studies, anglers keep only one out of every three fish they catch in a stocked lake.
''That's great but that's not what I intended when I put them in there,'' Skaugstad said. ''It's causing problems for me because now I'm overstocking some lakes. It's neat they're doing it but I've got to adapt.''
The fact that people are releasing fish in stocked lakes doesn't surprise Alt.
''The philosophy of killing everything you catch is changing,'' he said. ''More people are going out for the experience and that's more important than bringing home a whole lot of fish.''

Research on this topic, called reconsolidation, has become the basis of a possible treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder, drug addiction, and any other disorder that is based on learning.
This process is called reconsolidation, says a NYU release.
Gaea Times (by Simple Thoughts) Breaking News and incisive views 24/7
But Phelps's new experiment, which confirms earlier studies in rats, suggests that when a memory is changed during the so-called reconsolidation window, the original one is erased.
This process, called reconsolidation, occurs in higher cortical areas that were intact in Mr. Molaison's brain.
These results fit with the idea of reconsolidation, where remembering a memory provides a short window of opportunity for overwriting it.
We're back to the idea of reconsolidation: when we relive a memory, we make a new memory in the process, with new connections.
But some scientists now believe that memories effectively get rewritten every time they're activated, thanks to a process called reconsolidation.
The worst outcome could be a power-struggle that Rafsanjani loses, leading to retrenchment and reconsolidation.

His hypothesis was that if he could block reconsolidation of the rat's original fearful memory, it would no longer freeze.
Under the reconsolidation theory, some memories can be modified by new information, either intentionally or naturally after they're recalled; that may be why people who witness a crime will testify about what they heard in a news report, rather than what they saw, says LeDoux.

They say they were trapped indoors since the building's elevator broke down in the spring.
After months of frustration and still no fix they turned to 7 On Your Side and Nina Pineda.
Since May, Wasima Tauhid's sixth floor apartment has become a personal prison.
"I cannot go anywhere, just like house arrest," Tauhid said.
Her motorized wheelchair hasn't moved in months.
"So you haven't been outside since May?" 7 On Your Side's Nina Pineda asked.
"No," Tauhid said.
Her elevator was closed for repairs last May. Residents were told it would be out for a month or so, but five months later it's still out of service.
"How is it?" Pineda asked.
"It's hard," said Abdul Rashid, a building resident.
For Abdul Rashid, who's also disabled, scaling five floors is like Everest and he can only make one step at a time.
"Every day I'm taking the stairs, I have a lot of pain on my back and my spine," Rashid said.
A few months ago, Sumatri David's husband almost died. He was unconscious after a seizure on the sixth floor. EMT's had to carry him across the roof to use another building's elevator to save his life.
"It was bad. It was crazy. What to do? What to do?" David said.
The resident calls to 311 went nowhere.
"Did you get any answers from any of your complaints?" Pineda asked.
"No," said Mohammad Zabir, a building resident.
First, 7 On Your Side visited building management.
When no one opened the door, 7 On Your Side called.
"Somebody from your management office has to get over here and get this thing inspected and running," Pineda said.
The landlord said the elevator had been working for weeks, but that they were waiting on the city to inspect it, but just 48 hours later it was back up!
"How does it feel to be outside?" Pineda asked.
"Thank you very much, thank your channel," Tauhid said.
Wasima's got the sun on her face for the first time since May.
The elevator carries on again.
On every floor in the building of mostly immigrants, gratitude was expressed for making life a bit easier.
Management acknowledges it was late with the inspection paper work to the city.
The DOB says it expedited the inspection, and that landlord has about $2,500 worth of elevator fines pending.

Iggy, Iggy, Iggy.
Once again the Australian rapper with the blaccent is complaining about how the hip-hop community doesn't embrace her with open arms. In a recent radio interview, Azalea said that people know she's good, but they just don't want to admit it.
"They know, deep down. I think they know. They just don't want to admit it. That's what I think. I have a feeling. That's why they're mad. Because they do know that I actually am good, and they can't really accept that. But we could be friends, and this could all be easy. Or we could not, and I could send Bitcoin shit chocolate boxes to your door. But I'm still going to be here."
Poor, delusional, woman.
Nice try patting yourself on the back. Not that I would claim to be part of the 'hip-hop' community, but here's just a few reasons why some people just don't feel you:
1) Your blaccent is wack.
2) Your flow is wack.
3) Your style is wack.
4) Your whole being is wack.
5) Your attitude stinks.
I'm pretty sure I can think of more, but you get my point. In any event, the non-Grammy winner will probably just chalk everything off as people being haters, and the fact that she's white, and because she's a woman. Never because she's just a marketing gimmick and people can see right through it. We all have T.I. to blame.

Over several years in the 1960s, Bourdieu and his researchers surveyed 1,200 people of all classes and mined government data on aspects of French domestic life. They asked, for instance, Which of the following subjects would be most likely to make a beautiful photograph? and offered such choices as a sunset, a girl with a cat or a car crash. From government dietary research, they took data on the classic question: Do you think French people eat too much? The statistical results were striking. The things you prefer tastes that you like to think of as personal, unique, justified only by sensibility correspond tightly to defining measures of social class: your profession, your highest degree and your fathers profession. ...Once you take the Bourdieuian view, you can see how hipster neighborhoods are crossroads where young people from different origins, all crammed together, jockey for social gain. One hipster subgroups strategy is to disparage others as liberal arts college grads with too much time on their hands; the attack is leveled at the children of the upper middle class who move to cities after college with hopes of working in the creative professions. These hipsters are instantly declassed, reservoired in abject internships and ignored in the urban hierarchy but able to use college-taught skills of classification, collection and appreciation to generate a superior body of cultural cool. ...All hipsters play at being the inventors or first adopters of novelties: pride comes from knowing, and deciding, whats cool in advance of the rest of the world. Yet the habits of hatred and accusation are endemic to hipsters because they feel the weakness of everyones position including their own. Proving that someone is trying desperately to boost himself instantly undoes him as an opponent. Hes a fake, while you are a natural aristocrat of taste. Thats why Hes not for real, hes just a hipster is a potent insult among all the people identifiable as hipsters themselves.The attempt to analyze the hipster provokes such universal anxiety because it calls everyones bluff. And hipsters arent the only ones unnerved. Many of us try to justify our privileges by pretending that our superb tastes and intellect prove we deserve them, reflecting our inner superiority. Those below us economically, the reasoning goes, dont appreciate what we do; similarly, they couldnt fill our jobs, handle our wealth or survive our difficulties. - http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/14/books/review/Greif-t.html?pagewanted=2&_r=1&src=me
Thorstein Veblen invented the term conspicuous consumption to refer to the showy spending habits of the nouveau riche, who unlike the established money of his day took great pains to signal their wealth by buying fast cars, expensive clothes, and shiny jewelery. Why was such flashiness common among new money but not old? Because the old money was so secure in their position that it never even occurred to them that they might be confused with poor people, whereas new money, with their lack of aristocratic breeding, worried they might be mistaken for poor people if they didnt make it blatantly obvious that they had expensive things.The old money might have started off not buying flashy things for pragmatic reasons they didnt need to, so why waste the money? But if F. Scott Fitzgerald is to be believed, the old money actively cultivated an air of superiority to the nouveau riche and their conspicuous consumption; not buying flashy objects becomes a matter of principle. This makes sense: the nouveau riche need to differentiate themselves from the poor, but the old money need to differentiate themselves from the nouveau riche.This process is called countersignaling, and one can find its telltale patterns in many walks of life.
So my hypothesis is that if a certain side of an issue has very obvious points in support of it, and the other side of an issue relies on much more subtle points that the average person might not be expected to grasp, then adopting the second side of the issue will become a signal for intelligence, even if that side of the argument is wrong. - http://lesswrong.com/lw/2pv/intellectual_hipsters_and_metacontrarianism/
Weber was well known in academia for his essay "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism," written after he toured the United Sates in 1904. It was the origin of the unfortunately non-Protestant cliché, "the work ethic." He introduced the terms "charisma" and "charismatic" in their current usage; also "bureaucracy," which he characterized as "the routinization of charisma." He coined the term "style of life," which was converted into the compound noun "lifestyle" and put to work as the title of a thousand sections of newspapers across the United States. But what caught my imagination was the single word "status." In a very short, very dense essay called "Class, Status, and Party" he introduced an entirely new concept.I was by no means the first person to get excited over Weber's "status." The concept was well known within the field of sociology, although it was more often expressed in such terms as "social class," "social stratification," "prestige systems," and "mobility." Six years later Weber's terms "status-seeking" and "status symbols" began showing up in the press. Soon they were part of everyday language.The great American sociologists of the 1950s, W. Lloyd Warner, the Lynns, August B. Hollingshead, E. Digby Baltzell, C. Wright Mills, David Riesman, were turning out studies of how Americans rated others and themselves, often unconsciously, according to race, ethnic group, address, occupation, vocabulary, shopping habits, bill-paying habits (personal checks in lump sums as opposed to installment payments in cash), bureaucratic status symbols (corner offices, fine wooden desks as opposed to metal ones, water carafes, sofas as well as chairs, speaker phones, etageres of brass and glass), education (the great divide existing between those who had bachelor's degrees from a respectable four-year college as opposed to those who didn't), even sexual practices. The upper orders made love with the lights on and no bed covers. The lower orders--in the 1950s--found this perverted. Sociologists never rejected Karl Marx's brilliant breakdown of society into classes. But his idea of an upper class--the owners of "the means of production"--and their satellites, the bourgeoisie, in a struggle with the masses, the working class, was too rigid to describe competition among human beast in the 20th century. Weber's entirely novel concept of "status groups" proved to be both more flexible and more penetrating psychologically.Within the ranks of the rich, including the "owners of the means of production," there inevitably developed an inner circle known as Society. Such groups always believed themselves to be graced with "status honor," as Weber called it. Status honor existed quite apart from such gross matters as raw wealth and power. Family background, education, manners, dress, cultivation, style of life--these, the ineffable things, were what granted you your exalted place in Society. - http://www.neh.gov/whoweare/wolfe/lecture.html
Hipsters are such a hot topic here because, like anusites, they are elitist about their tastes. This is the connection between hipsters and black metal. Hipsters seek to be "elite," which is why they are attracted to metal despite their cultural differences; while metalheads have long believed that a certain taste in music made them better than everyone else (or they were better than everyone else and their superior taste in music was a badge of that), and outsiders coming in claiming to like the same stuff but not fully embracing the lifestyle threatens this sense of elitism. I wonder if this is how the Jews felt when European people started following Christianity... Either way, I think we've all dealt with your run-of-the-mill metalheads enough to know that wearing a Burzum shirt doesn't prove shit about your intelligence, so I really don't think we should be concerned about a few new inferior metal fans. I believe hipsters could be converted into genuine people, and I think metalheads should attempt that instead of just bitching about how they're taking the thing that makes you feel unique and special.
When's the last time someone changed upon hearing such an argument?

The U.S. war on drugs and gangs at home just shifted the problem to Central America — and back
When gang members come knocking, Central American households are offered a sinister choice: give us your children or let them stay and be killed.
Not surprisingly, many of the region's most desperate families are fleeing their homes in record numbers.
This past year alone, more than 62,000 children and adolescents made the perilous trek from the northern triangle — El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras — to what they hoped would be safe refuge in the U.S.
The scale and pace of the displacement crisis is staggering. This year, U.S. custom officials picked up 17,500 unaccompanied children from Honduras, 15,700 from Guatemala and 14,500 from El Salvador. SEE MORE…

When the 23 children in Mimi Walker's joint kindergarten and first-grade class left for lunch Friday, their tables were blanketed with painted paper and some paintings were scattered on the floor.
That didn't leave much of any surface in her classroom at Riverbend Elementary that wasn't covered with art.
Walker, named Outstanding Early Childhood Educator of the Year for Southeast Alaska, said she integrates art into class every day.
"I love it, first of all," Walker said Friday morning before school began. A caged dove courted itself in a little mirror, a rabbit snuffled around its own cage, and an aquarium burbled in the background.
"Creativity, to me, is really important," she said. "It's a way of communicating. It's a way kids can learn about things differently from reading and writing. They use all their senses. They can express themselves."
Joy Lyon, director of the Southeast Alaska affiliate of the Association for the Education of Young Children, which gave Walker the award, said she remembers as a parent walking by Walker's classroom at the old Capital School. Even then, the walls were filled and art dangled from the ceiling, she said.
"If you just walk in her classroom, you can see how she supports children's art," Lyon said.
On Friday, children tried to put together paintings something in the style of Eric Carle, a writer and illustrator of children's books. Carle cuts abstract paintings into pieces and turns them into representational collages.
Walker's children already had made some abstract paintings in splatters and swirls, or with sponges, or with their fingers. Walker kept track of piles of preliminary paintings and handed them out to each child. On Friday, they began trying to put them together in their own painting of sea life.
"Let's create some masterpieces," Walker told the children. She put some classical music on the CD player.
First-grader Samantha Thompson began by drawing a star with a crayon and cutting it out. She made a star for another girl at her table.
When a younger girl said, "All the papers are tooken," another girl corrected her. "It's not 'tooken.' It's 'taken.' "
Walker, who in the past has taught kindergartners and first-graders separately, said she likes a combined classroom because the older children serve as role models and help teach the younger ones. When the kindergartners sit at a table and see other kids writing sentences, they want to do that, too. The first-graders gain confidence by helping kindergartners, she said.
Walker also likes the combined classroom because she sees the first-graders for two years, and has some time alone with them at the end of the day, after the kindergartners have gone home early.
Samantha meanwhile had cut out a thin shape from a piece of a richly textured, dark-green abstract painting.
"Oh, that looks awesome. Look at that kelp," she said.
At another table first-grader Garret Snyder pointed to a piece he had cut out, which swirled with yellow, blue and red streaks.
"It has electricity in it, and it shocks people," he said of the yet-to-be-named sea life.
"You know what I'm going to make? A shark." Garret drew an outline on the blank white side of a painted piece of paper. "These are the teeth. Their teeth are very mean - bad," he said, searching for the right word. "Yeah, bad."
At the same table, kindergartner Bradley Aukon looked over at a hermit crab on first-grader Doug Harris' painting and pronounced it a turtle. They called over Walker.
"I like it," she told Doug. "Look at how it goes with your background color."
"Everyone says it looks like a turtle," Doug said.
"If you say it's a crab, it's a crab," Walker said. Privately, Bradley was unconvinced.
Walker, raised in Juneau, has been teaching for 14 years. She holds bachelor's degrees in elementary education and secondary art education.
Friday's schedule was read, snack, story, recess, art, lunch, recess, watching a video of a whale, choice of activity, kindergartners go home, snack, story, spelling test, recess, math, clean up, and first-graders go home.
But the work day doesn't end at 3:30, and it isn't limited to week days, Walker said.
"My head is full of children and they never leave my mind," Walker said. "I relive the day and how I handled whatever situation. ... It's kind of a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week commitment that actually I love."
A committee of specialists in early childhood education selected Walker for this year's award from about 12 nominees, Lyon said. She praised Walker for supporting children's creative experiences, "recognizing their uniqueness, respecting them as individuals and drawing out their strengths."
Walker's room is stocked with bins of plastic animals and cars and trucks, books about art, piles of puzzles, boxes of fossils and geodes, a toy kitchen, a closet of costumes and wigs, a bin of stuffed animals, a reproduction of a human skeleton wearing a smock, bookshelves of building blocks, and rows of books. Two plastic Chinese-style decorations stretch across part of the ceiling.
A clothesline, from which some children's art is hung, reaches from wall to wall. Another wall is partly covered with children's pastels based on a Mary Cassatt portrait of a mother and daughter. Six tables are scattered around the room.
Let's just say there's no empty space on her desk, either.
Walker has broken down many of the books into 16 increments of skill level, so she knows exactly what to teach from each book. Most of them she has bought herself. She spends at least $4,000 a year of her own money on books and supplies, Walker said.
During the children's reading session in the morning, Walker called over two or three or four students at a time and gave them books and assignments. She told a boy and a girl that they would read a book about a person, which is called a biography. Because the book was about Helen Keller, Walker explained what a disability is. She had folders prepared for each child giving the instructions and questions to answer.
"It just makes a lot of sense to teach them at the level they're at rather than lump them all together, so they're all being challenged," she said.
Under the federal No Child Left Behind act, schools are focusing more and more on tests and measures of achievement, Lyon said.
"You look at classrooms like Mimi's and you see how much more depth there is than fill in the bubbles," she said. "It's about who we are as human beings that teachers are out there supporting."

Editor's note: This is the fourth story in a weeklong series looking at the effects of rising costs on the Kenai Peninsula.
Without hesitation, the owner of the Bike Loft above Beeman's variety store in Soldotna, says he is selling more bikes these days due to record-high gasoline prices.
"We are selling more bikes and a number of customers say they specifically want a bike so they can ride to work," said Steve Beeson.
Now that gasoline prices in the central Kenai Peninsula area have sped past the $4 mark and are fast approaching $5 a gallon, motorists are being forced to make changes in their driving habits and in deciding whether to drive at all.
What Beeson is seeing is a greater demand for what he calls a "comfort bike."
The bicycle that compares somewhere between a skinny-tire sleek racing bike and a fat-tire off-road mountain bike, features wider tires than the racing bike and has the same 21 gears typical of a mountain bike, according to Beeson.
Comfort bikes have a slightly larger diameter wheel as well, at 27 inches.
"They're called '700s' because they use metric (measurements)," he said.
Priced in the affordable range, the comfort bikes made by Trek and Specialized, start at $339 at the Bike Loft. They have a front wheel shock absorber as well as a seat-post shock.
Additionally, Beeson's customers are asking to have their bikes equipped with fenders and carrier racks so they can carry a lunch or change of clothes for when people do get to work.
Beeson said that although he can order bicycle baskets to be mounted on the handlebars, most customers are asking for rear racks, baskets or bags. With the fenders, the add ons also add to the price of the bike.
"It eats up a $100 bill pretty fast," Beeson said.
Nevertheless, he said bike sales for the month of May were up 8 percent and rising.
A quick look across the Stanley Ford car lot in Soldotna reveals people are also shopping for small cars.
"We're out of Ford Focuses," said Matt Hopson, general manager for sales.
The dealership does have a selection of other smaller vehicles in stock, namely the Ford Fusion, the Taurus X and the Escape, Ford's smaller sport utility vehicle. Hopson said the Fusion and Taurus come in two-wheel as well as all-wheel drive.
While the Ford Escape is made in a hybrid version, he said, "I don't recommend it for Alaska.
"Where it saves fuel is in city driving conditions," he said.
Hutchings Chevrolet Sales Manager Travis Burnett said that Soldotna dealership also has seen a rise in small car sales, but most of his customers are also keeping their larger vehicles for winter.
"They're buying the small cars for the summer, but they want to drive their larger vehicles in winter with our road conditions and all the moose on the road," Burnett said.
He said Chevy does offer a hybrid in its Malibu line, but so far, there has not been much interest on the Kenai Peninsula.
"Our weather isn't too conducive to hybrids," Burnett said. "It's not worth the (fuel) savings not to drive the larger vehicles in winter."
For those who find it impractical to pedal a bike to work or whose budgets don't have room for a new car, Ellis Automotive offers some tips for improving gas mileage.
A good clean air filter tops the list for co-owner Larry Ellis.
"A tune-up helps," he said. "And, with newer vehicles, it's good to change fuel filters often."
Co-owner Brant Ellis said having fuel injectors cleaned professionally with an injection cleaning system also helps. To have it done along with a tune-up, the cost is $80. Doing it without the tune-up runs the cost up to $139, he said.
"It definitely helps," Brant Ellis said. "It cleans out the whole system.
"I'd do it once a year with these high gasoline prices," he said.
He also recommends maintaining the manufacturer-suggested tire pressure to aid gas mileage.
Motorists should pay attention to the "check engine" light when it comes on as well, Brant Ellis said.
"If it means the oxygen sensor has gone bad, gas mileage really goes down, even though the car's performance is still OK," he said.
"Some people think as long as the vehicle's running the same, they can ignore the 'check engine' light. Don't," he said.
For Beeson at the Bike Loft, people switching to pedal power from horsepower is more than selling more bikes.
"It's about getting people more active," Beeson said. "The exciting part is it gets more people riding."

NEW YORK – Designer Ralph Lauren's new Olympic opening ceremony uniform has lots of stars and stripes. It has lots of red, white and blue. And most important, it has a Made in America label.
The new look features a knit patchwork cardigan emblazoned with big stars, an American flag, and the Olympic rings. Underneath, there's a cream cotton turtleneck, white athletic pants, and black leather boots. There's also a wool "reindeer hat" – with braided tassels – also in red, white and blue, of course.
The most important feature, though, is its provenance – the United States. During the 2012 London games, Lauren's uniforms were a point of controversy when it was revealed that much of them were made overseas, especially in China. Ralph Lauren Corp. got the message.
"A dynamic mix of patriotic references in a classic color palette of red, white and navy defines the Ralph Lauren 2014 Team USA Opening ceremony uniform, which is proudly Made in America," the company said in a statement Thursday.
What do you think of the uniform? Use the comments field below to let us know.

(This is part of my detailed review of the Semantics and structure of HTML elements section.) Shouldn't the HTMLTableCellElement.colSpan and rowSpan attributes be unsigned long instead of long in the IDL? Also, shouldn't the colSpan be "limited to only positive non-zero numbers" in the reflecting paragraph? Also, the attributes are spelled in all lowercase in the reflecting paragraphs. -- Simon Pieters Opera SoftwareReceived on Wednesday, 18 July 2007 12:19:44 UTC
