Imero Fiorentino
Lighting Designer
"Lighting changes all the time. Lighting is a living thing. Lighting a program is not light it and walk away from it. Sometimes you can do that, but it is ever-changing, just as the face is ever-changing. You don't get up in the morning looking exactly the same as you did yesterday."
About This Interview
In his two-hours plus Archive interview, Imero Fiorentino (1928-2013) discusses his early years and influences - going to Radio City Music Hall and being intrigued by theater arts, and joining the "stage squad" in high school theater. He talks about the devastating moment in his life when he lost an eye and how he used the experience as a driving force in his pursuit of success. He recalls his start in television in 1950, working, trial-by-fire as a staff lighting director at ABC. Fiorentino describes developing creative lighting and working for ABC anthology series Paul Whiteman's Goodyear Revue, Tales of Tomorrow, and Omnibus (on which he used leaves to create a shadow effect). He tells tales of some "live" television mishaps (too much flash powder once knocked over a camera; a bed in a tender scene fell down twice; a boom shadow appeared through an entire scene...). He details lighting the first televised appearance of the Bolshoi Ballet, a particular favorite; speaks of forming his own company, Imero Fiorentino Associates; and recounts lighting the 1960 presidential debates, the Telstar satellite broadcast in 1962, and the World Showcase Pavillions at Disney's Epcot Center. Throughout the interview, Fiorentino speaks of the craft of lighting -- working with crews and talent, utilizing equipment, how the tools of the trade have changed over the years, and creating mood with light. Karen Herman conducted the interview in New York, NY. on September 15, 2006.

G. Chambers Williams III: Toyota's Yaris gets an overhaul
Sportier appearance, upgraded standards, added length part of the new package.
Updated 1:00 am, Sunday, September 4, 2011
Toyota's redesigned 2012 Yaris liftback subcompact comes to market this fall with prices ranging from $14,115 for the base L three-door model with a five-speed manual gearbox to $17,200 for the top-of-the-line SE five-door version with a four-speed automatic.
Playing in an increasingly crowded segment that includes the new Chevrolet Sonic and Ford Fiesta, as well as the already established Honda Fit and Nissan Versa, the new Yaris has estimated highway mileage of 38 mpg and 35 with the automatic. Complete EPA ratings have not yet been released.
New from the ground up, the 2012 Yaris, which seats five, has been given a sportier, more aggressive appearance, Toyota says. Its wheelbase is now 2 inches longer, at 98.8 inches; and overall, the car is 2.9 inches longer, at 153.5 inches. It's also 0.6 inches lower.
The extra length helped add up to 68 percent more cargo space, as well as increasing passenger volume and headroom. The cargo area is 5.7 inches longer and 2.1 inches wider.
To help fuel economy, the new body is more aerodynamic, with a 0.30 coefficient of drag — about what a sports car would offer. The changes include an energy-absorbing body structure with high-strength steel to help protect occupants in a collision.

All models come with a 1.5-liter, 16-valve, four-cylinder engine with intelligent variable valve timing. It's rated at 106 horsepower and 103 foot-pounds of torque.
Between the L and SE models, there is a midpriced LE version. Detailed pricing has not been announced yet, but Toyota said the new Yaris will have "more than $1,000 of additional standard equipment," and prices will be comparable to the previous-generation Yaris with the Convenience Package, with prices remaining mostly unchanged.
The new four-speed, electronically controlled automatic transmission is available on all models, and has a more compact, lighter-weight design to help boost fuel efficiency. The manual transmission is available only on L and SE models.
The suspension system on all models has MacPherson struts in the front and a torsion-beam setup in the rear, designed to improve ride and handling.
All versions come with electric power steering, power/ventilated front disc brakes, power door locks, air conditioning, six cup and bottle holders, a storage cover for the cargo area, halogen headlights and a cold-weather package. There is a new single front wiper that covers the whole windshield.
The L model has an AM/FM/compact-disc radio with MP3 and WMA playback. LE and SE models come with a premium system that includes HD radio, six speakers and Bluetooth music streaming. Also standard are USB and auxiliary ports for both audio systems.
Extras on the LE include power windows with driver-side auto-down; power mirrors; remote keyless entry with engine immobilizer; and steering-wheel audio controls. Cruise control is optional on the LE and standard on the SE. Tire sizes are 15 inches on L and LE versions, and 16 inches on the SE.
With the SE model comes a sport-tuned suspension, quicker-ratio steering, unique styling cues, including integrated fog lights, a color-keyed grille with a mesh insert, front and rear underbody spoilers, a rear upper spoiler and diffuser, and a chrome exhaust tip.
The SE has four-wheel disc brakes, while L and LE models have drum brakes on the rear. The SE also comes with P195/50R16 tires and alloy wheels.
Inside, the SE has a sport instrument panel with analog speedometer/tachometer/fuel gauge and digital multi-instrument display. There is a leather-trimmed, three-spoke, tilt steering wheel that includes audio and cruise controls. Sport bucket seats are six-way adjustable on the driver's side and four-way on the passenger side.
All models have nine air bags, including front-seat mounted side air bags, a knee air bag on the driver's side and roof-mounted, roll-sensing side-curtain air bags for both rows of seats.
Also standard is Toyota's Star Safety System, which comprises electronic stability control, traction control, four-wheel antilock brakes, electronic brake-force distribution and brake assist. The car has Toyota's Smart Stop system, which automatically cuts off the accelerator when the brake pedal is pushed.
There's a new front-seat structure designed to reduce whiplash injuries from a rear-end collision. Toyota says the seat design "helps to ensure that all areas from the head to the lower back are equally supported."
L models have a one-piece folding rear seat; the LE and SE versions have a 60/40 split fold-down seat. Cargo capacity with the rear seatback in place is 15.3 cubic feet on the three-door model and 15.6 cubic feet on the five-door.
Eight exterior colors are available: Super White, Classic Silver Metallic, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Black Sand Pearl, Absolutely Red, Lagoon Blue Mica, Wave Line Pearl and Blazing Blue Pearl.
Production of the new Yaris began Aug. 31, and the cars should begin arriving in showrooms within a few weeks.

It's aconfig option that I don't think the distros still enable (SuSE doesnot). Is this still needed these days?In digging, we changed this option in 2.2.x from being called"pci=reverse" and no one else seems to miss it.Any thoughts?thanks,greg k-h

Brandon "DontMashMe" Phan is the AD player for League of Legends eSports team MonomaniacDominatus. Phan quickly made a name for himself in the competitive League of Legends arena by winning the very first 1v1 SoloMid.Net Tournament. After piling up the wins and migrating to several different pro teams, Phan has found a home with Monomaniac eSports, which acquired his Choppa in Da Car team. Phan talks about the rise of League of Legends and what the future holds for eSports in this exclusive interview.
How did you become a pro gamer?
My first taste of real competition was the first Solomid.net 1v1 Tournament. I went into the tournament humbled and surprised myself and the rest of the competition by walking away with the win. Following that win, I knew I had had the potential to make it to the next level of play. There was a period of time where I was playing for a lot of teams, but none seemed to have last for long periods of time. Ultimately, I ended up here at Monomaniac eSports and things are going well thus far.
What's been the key to your success in eSports?
What I found key to eSports is never giving up and chasing your dreams. "If you had one shot, one opportunity, to seize everything you ever wanted - one moment; Would you capture it or let it slip?" - Marshall Bruce Mathers III. That's such a powerful quote and with such a strong mindset, you can achieve anything you set your mind to.
I played a lot of DoTA in my middle school age with a lot of my older brother's friends. Eventually, they all retired as they all had to get a life. I only played with a few people, but I eventually got bored of DoTA and just played Warcraft III customs games. Then my friend told me about League of Legends, which was supposed to be a unique Moba. So I decided to try it out after a party on Christmas night 2009 and I've been playing ever since.
How much like a real sport is the five-player gameplay designed by Riot Games?
Even though League of Legends isn't played on a field, you still have to work with and depend on your teammates. Communication is extremely important in every game because it allows you to make plays and win games. ESports is more competitive than a regular sport, in my opinion, because you have to practice a lot more. In competitive gaming you have to discipline yourself and have a strong work ethic in order to be at the top of your game.
How does Riot Games work with the eSports community?
Riot does a lot for the eSports community, whether it's giving out small prizes, big prizes, or even supplying soundproof booths for LAN tournaments. Apart from that Riot, coordinates with all the teams to make sure they're able to attend events. It's really nice to see a company care that much about their players.

Upset over frequent disruptions caused by two Telugu Desam Party members of Parliament, Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman P J Kurien on Friday threatened to suspend them for a day "for holding the House to ransom" but could not do so as members of All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam and Trinamool Congress opposed it.
Kurien issued the warning around 2.30 pm when Coal Minister Shriprakash Jaiswal was to give clarifications on the missing files of the coal block allocation. The two MPs Y S Chaudhary and C M Ramesh, were in the Well and chanting slogans against the decision to form Telangana.
Kurien pleaded with them to allow the House to function but the members were unrelenting.
Amid din, Kurien threatened to take action under Rule 255 under which "the chairman may direct any member whose conduct is in his opinion grossly disorderly to withdraw immediately from the council and any member so ordered to withdraw shall do so forthwith and shall absent himself during the remainder of the day's meeting."
During the Zero Hour also, Kurien had said, "I can throw you out also. Do you want me to do that?"
Opposition members V Maitreyan of the AIADMK) and Derek O'Brien of the TMC opposed any action against them prompting to chair to say, "You want clarification on the coal issue and the prime minister is here. You want the discussion but do not want me to take any action against them. These are double standards."
With his repeated threats and appeals failing to yield any result, he said, "the chair is helpless." He then adjourned the House for 30 minutes.
When the House reassembled, Kurien said he was "pained and hurt" as the chair wanted the House to function. He said the prime minister, despite difficulties, was present in the House to intervene as per the demands by some members for him to intervene on the missing coal block allocation files.
"There are two members who are holding the House to ransom. Now, those who wanted this debate to happen are not supporting the chair in taking action against them. This is my agony. If the majority wants action under rule 255, the House can run otherwise I have no way other than to adjourn the House," the deputy chairman said.
With his efforts not yielding any result, he adjourned the House till Monday.

2. Re: Audiomixer Effect settings - how can I save them?Peru Bob Nov 21, 2012 10:59 AM (in response to ccp-media)
How about saving an audio clip with the settings you want to save in a separate sequence and just copy that effect when needed?
Not as convenient, but it should work.
3. Re: Audiomixer Effect settings - how can I save them?Steven L. Gotz Nov 21, 2012 1:40 PM (in response to Peru Bob)
I mention this now and then, but perhaps it is time to do so. To add to what Peru Bob said....
I keep a project with video and audio that has all of my favorite effects on them. I renamed the clips to tell me what effect they carry. Or, in the case of transitions, I use the same clip with the transition description as part of the name. The project also has my logo, some standard titles, and a variety of commonly use audio and video clips.
I just import that project into just about every new project I create.
I used to just copy and paste between the sequence with the effects on it (named Saved Effects0 and the sequence for my new project. It was a hassle switching back and forth, but then Ann Bens pointed out that I could just have the Save Effects sequence sit right on top of the main sequence. I have the room. I am using two 1920X1080 monitors.

Unfortunately, neither of those tips help much in this case, where the question was how to copy/paste Mixer (track level) effects from one sequence to another.
5. Re: Audiomixer Effect settings - how can I save them?Steven L. Gotz Nov 21, 2012 8:00 PM (in response to Jim_Simon)
Perhaps my explanation was unclear.
For effects you just copy and paste the attributes. For the mixer, you erase everthing on the sequence and start from there. Or make a duplicate. The mixer effects come over to the duplicate.
Now, can you apply it existing sequences? Well, no. New sequences made from the old one? Sure! You bet.
6. Re: Audiomixer Effect settings - how can I save them?ccp-media Nov 22, 2012 3:40 AM (in response to Steven L. Gotz)
Thanks a lot for all your ideas and thoughts...
Of course, I use the workaround of duplicating the sequence and paste in the clips I need, but come on... Premiere is sold as a Professional tool... but this issue is not that professional at all.
I was editing interviews with about 20 different sequences. So every time I feel like changing a little bit in the audio settings (with al least 3 plugins used), I either do this changes 20 times, or I have to duplicate (again) 20 sequences and pasting everything, copying the names of the sequences, deleting the old ones... Thats not a way to get your job done in short time...
Hope there will be an update for this issue soon!
7. Re: Audiomixer Effect settings - how can I save them?Jim Curtis Nov 22, 2012 8:04 AM (in response to ccp-media)
Yes, this should be in Pr, and should have been there all along, as well as custom presets for all video effects and transitions.
I hope you made the feature request. The more people who make them on specfic features, the higher on the list at Adobe.

California set to bust a cap on yo' ass
Straight talk, from straight faces
Tuesday, March 20, 2018, 06:50:59 (UTC)

Governor Schwarzenegger reached a deal with the Democrats who control the state legislature, defying the opposition of his fellow Republicans. He called it "an historic agreement" adding that "y'all betta lay down some gangsta shit, ya'hear?" The bill is due to go before a vote in the state assembly and senate before the legislative session closes on Thursday before elections to be held in November.
Under the plan, major industries would be required to get they asses blown off by my fo'-five pounda if dey don't cut they output of greenhouse gases. Overall, California's emissions should be cut by 25% by 2020. "We can now move forward with developing a market-based system that makes California a world leader in the effort to reduce carbon emissions and increase bullet wounds in the buttocks," the governor said in a statement.
The state, the most populous in the US, is the world's 12th largest emitter of greenhouse gases. It has taken a lead in environmental and gangsta issues in the US, and Mr. Schwarzenegger has touted his street cred in his bid for re-election in November. Last month he signed an accord with British Prime Minister Tony Blair establishing joint research into... well, joints. But the governor's commitment to emissions caps puts him at odds with the White House.
In the California legislature, too, Republicans demanded and national, not state-by-state approach to climate change and gun control. "Adopting costly and unattainable regulations will drive businesses and jobs out of California into other states and even into other countries with no commitment to improve air quality," said Assembly Republican leader George Plescia. "Plus, I've always preferred a good honky-tonk song to wunna them rap songs colored folk's always singin'."

Back in the 1980's, IT department preferences or mandates to use specific proprietary mainframe technologies drove many ERP software decisions. This was about the technologies the IT department could (or would) support not the mainframe software that best satisfied business needs.
Later in the 1990's the mainframe vs. "open system" (client/server) wars caused many to take a blind leap of faith into open systems only to find out later the ERP software functionality in this arena was not as mature as their mainframe counterparts. Though open systems eventually won, many jumped head first into this brave new world simply at the wrong time.
Today "open source ERP", upstart internet based application services (SaaS), "cloud computing" and other paradigms represent the same fork in the road. It is guaranteed tomorrow there will be a new one. The point is not to generalize regarding any particular direction, but the lessons of the past must not be ignored....
If the software functionality does not do what we need it to do, nothing else really matters.
When this occurs everyone will forget all the seemingly valid reasons a package was selected in the first place(cheaper, newer technology, or everyone else is starting to do it). They will focus on the lousy functionality.
This message seems simple enough (and almost elementary), but many smart people allow themselves to get caught up in the industry hype.
Let the academics and consultants who really care debate the future of ERP because in the meantime you have a business to run. Unless you are interested in becoming a guinea pig. Believe me, alot of software vendors are looking for them.
Obviously in the real world budgets are not unlimited, technology can be a strategic enabler, and there are other important trade-offs.
However, nine times out of ten if the software functionality is a bad fit, eventually the project is deemed a failure. This means software decisions that do not weigh functionality the most can defeat the purpose of a new ERP system.
Selecting software is not just a quantitative process. It ultimately boils down to a business decision and you want to be on the right side of history. As long as the cost of ownership is affordable, the technology stable, the package is supported, and many other companies are using it; go with the software that best meets business needs.
If the organization cannot find a package that satisfies at least 85% of the overall software requirements (and almost all of the important ones) it is time to either look at higher-end packages (or redesign your business processes).

How to get maximum followers by free Instagram follower process
Having free Instagram followers can help you a lot to grow your popularity. If you are unable to gather a good amount of followers in Instagram, then this is going to help you to organize your profile. But, there are certain things to consider before having free Instagram followers. Most of the third-party sites that offer free Instagram followers are scams. To be safe from such scams, it is better to grow your fan following by yourself. This is the easiest, safest and effective way to increase your followers instead of buying instagram followers. Here, in this article you will find necessary steps that you need to follow in order to increase your followers. The steps are as follows:
- The first step that you need to take is to make your account private. Making your account private will attract different followers to view your post and like them.
- You need to visit famous friends or user in Instagram and check the "followers" tab. The famous users are bound to have a huge number of followers and this can help your profile in the following ways.
- After visiting such profiles, you should click the "follow" option who have great amount of followers rather than having good amount of followings. If you follow such people then you can spread your post to number of people and these people can help you to spread your post by liking them. This is a chain reaction that cannot be stopped. If your post contains materials and stuffs that are important to the people then it will spread like wild fire and increase your "follower" status.
- It is not a matter of pride when it comes to following people. In Instagram, this is the daily routine and spreading business through your followers will help you a lot to gain popularity. It is good to do it yourself rather than buying instagram followers, as it involves money. Some people doesn't want to spend much on buy instagram followers as they cannot afford it, so it is better to go through a process that doesn't involve money.
- If you want to manage your profile in a proper way then you should check your notifications daily. There might be some requests that are pending for you to accept. If you fail to accept them or do not notice the notification then the people who are interested in your profile may lose patients. As soon as you open the notification center you will find names you people that wants to follow you and beside them there will be two different signs. One will be a "check" button and another will be a "cross" button. You need to click the "check" button to accept the followers.
- You should download an Instagram app to check your notifications. Then go to the "non-followers" section and "unfollow" your non-followers, strangers and unimportant people. Repeat the steps on a daily basis to get the maximum result.

NATO reportedly is considering renting helicopters to re-supply front-line units and remote bases in southern Afghanistan.
Defense ministers from the alliance meeting in the Netherlands in late October were to review a proposal to charter up to 20 large helicopters flown by civilian contractors to move supplies.
Commanders in Afghanistan have had trouble getting alliance nations to approve sending their helicopters into areas with significant numbers of Taliban troops. That has forced them to rely on ground convoys to move troops and supplies, and to suffer the attacks and casualties to which such movements are more susceptible. Germany, France, Turkey, Spain, and Greece reportedly all have turned down recent NATO requests to deploy large transport helicopters to southern Afghanistan.
NATO's Military Committee has "passed to political authorities, advice for their consideration to outsource some of NATO's air transport requirements to meet airlift shortfalls in Afghanistan," according to the committee.
The shortage of helicopters has been among NATO's most pressing priorities in Afghanistan. Chartering civilian ones for re-supply missions would free U.S., British, and Dutch helicopters in theater to concentrate on combat operations.

They join Division III East Union and No. 16 seed Sierra in the volleyball postseason, which begins Tuesday.
Ripon (30-6) was rated as the top-team of the Division-IV field and will play host to the third-place team of the Mountain Valley League, Venture Academy. The Mustangs (Stockton) come into the postseason having loss three consecutive matches, giving the Indians the task of making sure they don't turn it around.
Ripon Christian (24-7) comes into this year's tournament with a section-best 13 championship banners. The Division-V No. 1 seed will open with Sacramento Metro League's third-place team, Sacramento Country Day. Country Day is the No. 8 seed, as the section added a Division-VI tournament, made up of eight schools as well.
Both East Union (13-8) and Sierra (15-8) will enter the Division-III tournament as the No. 12 and No. 16 seed, respectively. Sierra earned its berth in a Valley Oak League sweep of the Lancers in the regular season final. Now the Timberwolves will meet up with No. 1 seed Vanden (Fairfield) in the program's seventh-consecutive playoff appearance.
"I didn't know that the program had made it six straight years," Sierra head coach Trinity Johnson said. "But there is always pressure to make it far as possible. For me, it was more pressure in trying to fill (former coach Tevani) Liotard's shoes.
"At the beginning of the season my expectations were high for these girls, and they've met my expectations."
East Union will kick off tournament action against No. 5 seed Union Mine. The Diamondbacks (24-2-1) finished with an 11-1 record in Sierra Valley League. Union Mine hadn't lost in 18-straight matches until dropping the season finale against Vista del Lago.
The Lancers seemingly back into the tournament, having dropped three of their final four VOL matches. Injuries have reared their ugly head on the close of East Union's season, forcing the club to get healthy in a hurry if they plan to pull off the 12-seed upset.
Ripon found little challenge in their 3-0 opening round win a year ago over Marysville, and should be able to handle business against a 6-4 Venture Academy. The Indians' ride to the section title has always encountered the troublesome Christian Brothers squad, but that won't be the case as the defending Division-IV champions are currently the No. 9 seed in the Division-III tournament.
Ripon dropped four consecutive section finals to the Falcons, giving the club its first undeniable claim as the tournament's best team. All first-round action is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m., with Sierra and East Union on the road, and both Ripon clubs hosting on their home court.
"We'll be ready," Ripon head coach Larry Keethe said. "The girls are really relaxed right now, and I thinking it is because of how confident they are.
"I expect as we continue on, the intensity will pick up."

Sometimes it's easy to forget that Facebook can be a public forum, in the truest sense of the term. No one has learned this lesson better than former couple Kelly and Jake, whose relationship ended when Kelly found out Jake cheated on her.
Because it's 2015, Kelly took to Facebook to publicly shame Jake.
The comments are pretty standard at first, but then things start to get interesting. Turns out, Jake was a bit of a cad. And he was super into picking up girls on Facebook. Thankfully for the Internet, the female targets of his affection were quick to jump in with proof of his promiscuity.
See for youself:

Hello capossito,
Do you have an external monitor that you could use to temporarily replace the broken screen?
If you do, you could connect the monitor to use it to navigate the BIOS.
It would be difficult to guide you through the options if you cant see the screen.

Well, if you want to try navigating the BIOS blind, here is a step-by-step:
I am gathering these steps from an SVS15 inch model rather than 13, but the bios menu layout should be the same.
If these steps don't do you any justice, you might need to get that screen fixed before you can reliably proceed.

With its fresh, delicate bouquet, Lavanda Tonica is redolent of the typical fragrances of the Mediterranean: lemon, bergamot and orange blossom. But the central aroma is the discreetly elegant scent of lavender that appeals to men and women alike, enhancing its refreshing and energizing aroma.
Lavender grows in the wild throughout the Mediterranean and has been used since ancient times: the Romans were the first to use it as a fragrant infusion in their baths, and as a soap. Lavanda Tonica by Acqua di Parma is a new and skilled blend of Mediterranean aromas, featuring lemon, bergamot and orange blossom together with lavender from the Alps.

KNOXVILLE (UT News Release) –- Jimmy and Dee Haslam have donated $10 million to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, to benefit two prominent university programs, fund endowed professorships and create a prestigious honors scholarship.
The Knoxville couple's gift will help UT strengthen its top academic offerings by benefiting the Marco Institute for Medieval and Renaissance Studies and forensic anthropology. The new Haslam Scholars program will allow the university to recruit the nation's most talented students for an interdisciplinary, international learning experience.
Jimmy Haslam is president and chief executive officer of Pilot Travel Centers. Dee Haslam is CEO of RIVR Media and also chairs the UT Development Council. The Haslams are chairs of the Campaign for Tennessee for the Knoxville Campus.
"Students and faculty are what make UT strong, inviting and vibrant. We are happy to create the Haslam Scholars program to bring some of the nation's best students to the UT campus. It is our hope that the endowed professorships help the university attract leading scholars," Jimmy Haslam said. "Marco and forensic anthropology are unique programs that already have garnered national acclaim. We are pleased to help them grow."
Chancellor Loren Crabtree said, "We want to thank the Haslams for supporting two excellent programs that have brought, and will continue to bring, national attention to UT. Also, by creating the Haslam Scholars and endowing professorships, the Haslams will help us reach new heights in academics and research."
Of the $10 million, $3 million will be used to create the Jimmy and Dee Haslam Marco Endowment in the College of Arts and Sciences. Earnings from the endowment will provide support for scholarly research and for the graduate student programs of the Marco Institute.
"This is another great step for the Marco Institute, which recently had one of its professors, Jay Rubenstein, awarded a MacArthur Foundation genius grant," said Robert Bast, Riggsby Director of the Marco Institute and associate professor of history. "The Haslams' endowment provides extraordinary means for the Marco Institute to move forward in building programs of international caliber while continuing to engage in the teaching, outreach and service that a marks a great public university,"
Another $2 million will go to the Forensic Anthropology Center, with $750,000 earmarked for a building to be constructed for the Anthropological Research Facility, known as the Body Farm. The remainder will create an endowment with the earnings used elsewhere in the program.
"We are extremely grateful to the Haslams for recognizing our program which already has been extremely successful, both in academics and applied work -- and for providing the means for our program to grow and further enhance its academic reputation," said Richard Jantz, anthropology professor and director of the center.
Proceeds from the endowment may be used to create a post-doctoral fellowship.
Though its location is yet to be determined, the building is expected to house a morgue, a facility where students can work with human remains and a classroom.
Another $2.5 million will go to into an endowment from which earnings will be used to create and fund the Haslam Scholars program, a premier honors program that will provided unprecedented opportunities and scholarships. Recipients, who also will qualify for other university scholarships that pay for their cost of attendance, will receive laptop computers, a paid study-abroad experience, a research stipend for a senior thesis project and a travel stipend to present their thesis at a national or international program.
The remaining $2.5 million will be used to create the Haslam Family Professorship and Chair Endowment. Earnings will allow the university to recruit and retain top-notch faculty.
The gifts will be counted as part of the Campaign for Tennessee, a multiphase fund-raising effort that will extend through 2011.

On my VAIO, I cannot enter the bios. I want to enable hardware address translation virtualization for hyper-V and I want to change the boot order to thr cdrom first to install windows 7 (maybe on a partition or a vhd if I can solve thr firsat problem. I am a programmer at microsoft so I know enough not to shoot myself in the foot with bad bios settings. I have hit F2 at thr VAIO screen at system startup to no affect. Being locked out of features on a machine I thought I owned (I did pay for this machine) is exceptionally frustrating and I don't understand how getting into BIOS could actually be difficult unless I was intentionally locked out. If this is to save users from themselves then maybe I can understand but i've been looking this up and so far no succcess. Is blocking me out of BIOS by design? If so, then I feel robbed - please tell me how to enter BIOS settings.

I was able to find it after searching more. I don't know why it's so hard to get to - like some buriee magical secret but here is the answer to the riddle:
Befor you press the power button, PRESS and HOLD the ASSIST button and then the power button. Now you get the menu you want.
Holding the assist button from after the moment the machine powers on may also be helping but i still only succeed intermitantly. Wacky -how hard they made it - why?
I fould the hardware SLAT for hyper-v in the 2 - (or F2 ?) advanced bios settings screen. Geeeeeeeezzz - SONY!

Hello, Superduperandy. Sorry for the confusion. Microsoft made requirements for a change to BIOS & recovery access options for Windows 8. In previous Windows Operating Systems, hooks had to be inserted to 'catch' the boot cycle at the right point with the F2 key to induce the PC to go into BIOS mode, or F8 to boot to the Advanced Boot Options screen. But Windows 8 uses a hybrid shut down state, and also boots so quickly that it is nearly impossible to catch the boot cycle by pressing even a single key at the right moment. Booting to BIOS or recovery has changed for nearly all OEMs, as a result. On all VAIO PCs with Windows 8 preinstalled, just shut down the PC using the normal WIndows 8 shut down procedure. Then, instead of using the power button to start it, just press the Assist button. Booting from Assist will take you to an options menu which includes BIOS and recovery. I have included a picture of the screen you should see when you boot from the Assist button below. This screen includes instruction to use F2 to get to BIOS, but F2 only works to get there when you have this screen up on the PC.

I found this thread because I have the same problem for windows 8. The difference is that the laptop was wiped and has no sony software on it, so it doesn't show the boot menu when press assist. Please include the link to the software that has to be installed. I have an F series Vaio. Thank you!

You will need to purchase recovery media to reinstantiate the Vaio Recovery Partition that the Assist button boots to. Please post your exact Vaio Model and i can look up the Recovery Media part number for you if it is a Latin America, USA, or Canada model.

The model is Sony Vaio VPCF13Z8E. I don't know the provenience of the model, but it's imposiible to find any drivers/software for it. Thank you!

I think that is a europe model.
Try Sony Europe Support. I would not be able to provide a part number for a Europe model.
03-02-2014 01:24 PM edited {1}
It is very rare that I take the time to sign up for a forum, and even less likely that I take the time to comment. You have to purchase recovery media? That is absolutely aweful. When purchasing business or personal laptops in the future, I will research this facet of the hardware before purchasing, as it will be a deciding factor. As for windows 8, It will never be on any hardware I deploy. Just like Vista wasn't. I will out wait the horrible atrocity that is windows 8.
I am sure there is still someway to directly access the BIOS. I cannot believe that BIOS access would be per-verted in this way.

Fortunately, the internet has a solution. Press and hold the F2 key before pressing the power button. This took me directly to the BIOS.

3 Ways to Eat Smart This Weekend
- Share this post:
Whether you're headed out of town, going to or throwing a 4th of July barbecue, or just staying home, don't let stress about what you'll eat or how you'll overcome temptations get the best of you. If you find weekends like this a challenge when it comes to food and fitness, here are three steps to help you keep your weight in check while soaking in some summer fun:
1) Stay ahead of the game. Anticipate and plan your schedule for meals, snacks, and activities. The more you know your schedule ahead of time, the more in charge you'll feel about your food and fitness decisions. Make sure to eat every 3 to 4 hours. If you're traveling or on the go, pack up a few grab and go snacks for the weekend—for example, some fresh fruit and baggies filled with 1-2 tablespoons each of dried fruit, whole grain cereal or low fat granola, and nuts–walnuts, cashews, almonds, peanuts, or any combo. These snack pack in protein, fiber, and healthy fats and are easy to nosh on (they also make great alternatives to a candy bar or bag of chips you might otherwise grab when hunger strikes).
2) Follow the one-plate, one-drink rule. Whether you're at a barbecue, restaurant, or home, try to limit yourself to one plate of food AND one calorie-containing drink (including wine, beer, or any other alcoholic beverage). Assess the food situation before you fill your plate or order your entree. Share appetizers and entrees, order two small appetizers for your meal, or stick to one entree. Eat only the amount of food that can fit on one dinner plate–that will often mean leaving food over! When you're eating, remember that this is NOT your last meal, and if that when you really savor and taste each and every bite, you'll get the most enjoyment at the beginning of the meal when you really focus on it. When you're done eating, pop in a strong breath mint or have a full glass of water or seltzer with a splash of fruit juice or some fresh fruit slices to signal the end of the meal.
3) Minimize temptations. If you're throwing your own holiday party or going to someone else's home and want to buy or make some treats (like pie, cookies, or tarts), try to make or buy the kinds of items that you like the least (or that you know you won't want to overeat). You could also bring some fresh in-season fruit (perhaps arranged in kebabs or simple slices) to have for dessert–a great way to add sweetness to meal and meet your daily quota for healthful fruit.
I hope your fourth of July is a blast and that you can really eat and enjoy while spending well-deserved down time with your friends and family. Let me know how you make out this weekend–and what helped you eat and enjoy stress-free!

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

Product Description

 A compulsively readable, deeply human novel that examines our most basic and unquenchable emotion: want.

With his critically acclaimed first novel, Jonathan Miles was widely praised as a comic genius "after something bigger" (David Ulin, Los Angeles Times) whose fiction was "not just philosophically but emotionally rewarding" (Richard Russo, New York Times Book Review, front cover).

Now, in his much anticipated second novel, Want Not, Miles takes a giant leap forward with this highly inventive and corrosively funny story of our times, a three-pronged tale of human excess that sifts through the detritus of several disparate lives—lost loves, blown chances, countless words and deeds misdirected or misunderstood—all conjoined in their come-hell-or-high-water search for fulfillment.

As the novel opens on Thanksgiving Day, readers are telescoped into three different worlds in various states of disrepair—a young freegan couple living off the grid in New York City; a once-prominent linguist, sacked at midlife by the dissolution of his marriage and his father's losing battle with Alzheimer's; and a self-made debt-collecting magnate, whose brute talent for squeezing money out of unlikely places has yielded him a royal existence, trophy wife included.

Want and desire propel these characters forward toward something, anything, more, until their worlds collide, briefly, randomly, yet irrevocably, in a shattering ending that will haunt readers long after the last page is turned.

With a satirist's eye and a romantic's heart, Miles captures the morass and comedy of contemporary life in all its excess. Bold, unblinking, unforgettable in its irony and pathos, Want Not is a wicked, bighearted literary novel that confirms the arrival of a major voice in American fiction.

Chicken Tikka Salad with Cucumbers and Tomatoes
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: This recipe is essentially a grilled chicken salad recipe done with traditional Indian salad ingredients like cucumbers, tomatoes, lime and cilantro. I add in french lentils as well, if you are in a rush you can add in canned black beans instead. I usually make the Chicken Tikka ahead of time or marinate it earlier, but essentially with a little planning you will have a wholesome and healthy meal on your hands. If you want to make this vegetarian, just increase the lentils to a whole cup and leave out the chicken. You can add any other crunch vegetable such as thinly sliced radishes, bell peppers and carrots to the mix, the possibilities are endless. —Rinku Bhattacharya /Spice Chronicles
Serves 6
For the chicken tikka
- 11/2 tablespoon tandoori masala (any commercial brand is fine)
- 1/2 cup Green Yogurt
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon red cayenne pepper
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken, cut into 2 inch pieces
For the salad
- 1/2 cup French lentils
- 2 medium sized seedless English cucumber
- 3 medium sized tomatoes or 1 cup of grape tomatoes
- 1 medium sized red onion
- 1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves
- 2 limes
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground pink salt (Himalayan)
- 1/4 cup Extra Virgin olive oil
- Sliced Jallapenos (optional)
- Mix together the yogurt, tandoori masala, salt and red cayenne pepper with the chicken and marinate at room temperature for at least an hour.
- In the meantime place the lentils in a pot with some water and cook for about 30 minutes until tender, drain and set aside.
- Peel and slice the cucumber, the cucumbers should not be very thin. Cut the tomatoes into chunks of halve the grape tomatoes if that is what you are using.
- Thinly slice the onions
- Place the lentils, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions and cilantro in a mixing bowl and mix lightly.
- Prepare a grill pan and add the chicken with the marinade and cook for about 10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly crisped and charred at edges.
- While the chicken is cooling, cut the limes or lemons and squeeze the juice in a small mixing bowl, removing any seeds as appropriate. Add in the salt and the olive oil and mix well.
- Add the chicken to the rest of the mixed salad. Add in the dressing and mix well with a gentle hand.
- Serve garnished with the jalapenos if using.

Ink or Blood?
"Over the life of your printer, you'll probably pay more than 500% of the total price of the printer itself on ink refill cartridges. At $30, a 42ml cartridge of black printer ink comes out to 71 cents per ml. On the other hand, the Red Cross charges $200 for 500 ml of blood, which comes out to about 40 cents per ml." - Amy Bell, "6 Outrageously Overpriced Products", Investopedia

Here are fresh spy shots of the Audi RS3.
Caught testing close to the manufacturer's headquarters in Ingolstadt, Germany, with virtually no camouflage, the prototype follows recent Audi form by being disguised as a racer.
However, the distinctive single windscreen wiper, quick-release bonnet pins and adjustable front spoiler won't make it on to the production version. These racy additions are simply Audi's attempt to give spy photographers the slip.
As our exclusive picture shows, the much anticipated newcomer will feature a wider track than the standard A3 and has enlarged wheelarches to accommodate the beefier alloys.
The car is being developed by Audi's Sport division – the team responsible for the barnstorming S4 and RS4 – and is scheduled to make its debut in show-rooms late next year.

Purchase OSHO Nataraj Meditation®
Tracks above are only short samples. You can purchase the full tracks or full album from the links provided below.
This hour-long track is specifically designed to support the OSHO Nataraj meditation. The music supports the energy and activity described in each stage of the meditation, and also signals the timing of each stage. A silent stage is part of most OSHO Active Meditations, and when the meditation ends with silence it will be concluded with a bell or gong. This is a 65 minute dancing meditation in three stages, with specifically created music. Disappearing in the dance then relaxing into silence and stillness is the route inside for this method.
The most comprehensive guide available to all the OSHO Active Meditations, plus a variety of other techniques offered at the OSHO Meditation Resort in India, and at OSHO meditation events around the world. "The first upgrade to meditation since Buddha's time." Published in the USA by St. Martin's Press the book has been re-issued in a more compact and portable format. In addition to dozens of meditation techniques, the book is an invaluable resource for meditators with OSHO responses to questions people have encountered along the way.
"Forget the dancer, the center of the ego; become the dance. That is the meditation. Dance so deeply that you forget completely that 'you' are dancing and begin to feel that you are the dance. The division must disappear; then it becomes a meditation. If the division is there, then it is an exercise: good, healthy, but it cannot be said to be spiritual. It is just a simple dance. Dance is good in itself – as far as it goes it is good. After it, you will feel fresh, young. But it is not meditation yet. The dancer must go, until only the dance remains…. Don't stand aside, don't be an observer. Participate! And be playful. Remember the word playful always – with me it is very basic." ~Osho
For more information on meditating, we recommend: Meditation The First and Last Freedom
First Stage – 40 minutes – With eyes closed, dance as if you are possessed. Let your unconscious take over completely. Do not control your movements or be a witness to what is happening. Just be totally in the dance.
Second Stage – 20 minutes – Keeping your eyes closed, lie down immediately. Be silent and still.
Third Stage – 5 minutes – Dance in celebration and enjoy.
Total Time: 65:00
