Director Randall Miller has been charged with involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespass following the death of a camera assistant on the Georgia set of the Allman Brothers biopic.
Sarah Jones, 27, was hit by a train and killed in February as the production crew shot footage for Midnight Rider on railroad tracks in Wayne County. Six other crew members were also injured.
A criminal investigation was launched and now the Wayne County District Attorney has indicted Miller, his producer wife Jody Savin and the film's executive producer Jay Sedrish on the two counts.
The charge of involuntary manslaughter carries a sentence of up to 10 years behind bars, while the criminal trespass misdemeanour could land Miller and the producers 12 months in prison.
Production on the movie, based on the memoirs of rocker Gregg Allman, was halted following the train tragedy.

Once you reach eligibility again, you can reapply. However, your application will be evaluated along with other applicants and is subject to waiver availability.
Is health insurance required for international students?

Your new school should also provide you with a Transfer Release form. Bring this with you as well. Once OIE reviews the documents and verifies acceptance to the new school, we will transfer your SEVIS record.
I am going to graduate this semester and would like to apply for OPT. What do I need to do?
You can apply for OPT no sooner than 90 days before your Program End Date on your form I-20. This is the earliest the federal government allows. Apply as soon as you are allowed as it can take months for the Service Center to process. Detailed Instructions
I would like to apply for a CPT. How does this work?
An internship must be part of your degree requirements. You will be required to demonstrate this to OIE. You will also need to provide an internship offer letter from a company to OIE. If you meet requirements, OIE will post the CPT in your SEVIS record….which is a requirement by the federal government.
I am graduating from CSC and would like to apply for graduate school at CSC. What do I need to do?
You will need to apply as a graduate student. The online application can be found on the Admissions page. You also will need to provide new financial information to demonstrate you have sufficient funds to cover your education for the next two years. Once you apply online and provide the financial documents, OIE will notify the Admissions Office. The Admissions Office will then take over the admissions process and work closely with you for the rest of your admissions process.
I was supposed to graduate this semester but now I will not be able to. What do I do?
You will need to visit OIE to discuss this. You will need to provide documentation and a compelling explanation for not graduating as expected. Once you provide all needed documentation and demonstrate a valid reason, OIE will extend your Program End Date on SEVIS. This is very important. If your Program End Date is not extended and you remain past this date you are out of status…a very serious issue!
Can I be paid at my CPT?
Yes you can. If you have an unpaid CPT, you are still required to provide the documentation listed above. For more information visit the Employment page.

Without metal you get way too much RF. We found that stacking nodes really close together vertically with no shielding caused many to not boot properly (seemingly the most sensitive time) and many to crash randomly (perhaps 10% of nodes every 2 weeks, mysterious crash). Moving them to twice the distance between, my guess, reduced the crash rate by a factor of 8ish (cube of distance? :) With the metal shelves we had no such problems. The shelves in this cabinet were also 9 inches apart, so its far enough even if they werent metal.

How good does a beach vacation sound right now?! So I'm prepping for a trip to Mexico later this week and you know I had to do a little shopping. And since one of my summer bucket list items is "wear shorts" (you know you are stupid and old if your summer bucket list item has something about wearing shorts…) on it, I thought a beach vacay would be the perfect time to try some out. I picked up those adorable black ruffle shorts (bottom right photo) from Ascot + Hart and can't wait to wear them! (Dang it! These look like they are all sold out. Check out their other fun short options here!) Of course I need a spray tan first but then I'm going to wear the sh*t out of those shorts. I'm also ellipticizing (I know this isn't really a thing but if you can Jazzercise I really think you oughta be able to ellipticize) so hopefully my thighs won't clap together as I wear my shorts around the resort. And I have been making awesome food choices. I see a little bit of a difference in my body and am totally going to stay on this healthy food business until at least my Palm Springs trip in August. Of course I want to continue it after, but I really think I need a weekend where all I eat is cake. I really like cake.
So um, Sharon, how is this post about packing for beach vacations again? Oh right. So another item I picked up for my trip, and summer in general, is this fantastic ruffle bikini top by Roxy. This is perfection for small boobed, birthing hips gals like me. It helps to balance out the silhouette and guess what else? Ain't nothing going to fall out of anywhere. This would be a great bikini top for playing smashball in the sand (whoa, that sounded so 80's, right there) or being more active than just lying on your towel. This is going to be my go-to top for swimming with my kids. Why are little hands so grabby? Like, OH NO I think I may be drowning! You know what will save me? My moms triangle top bathing suit! And I'm realizing that this isn't much of a "how to" post. It's more of a "you should totally get these items post."
And the other items in that photo? All wish list items. I keep seeing this round beach towel and it wants to be part of my family. This white Cleobella kimono is perfection (holy crap! This item is no longer available either! Here are some other great kimonos and jackets). I can't stop dreaming about these Nena and Co. bags. One day I will break down and buy one. The colors make my heart happy! This Tacos and Tequila shirt should be mandatory when even thinking about Mexico. And I've seen these rad little booties in action and think they want to be on my feet. I can't even tell you the last time I wore heels, so these would sort of be like training wheels. That thick heel is right up my alley and I love the color. All I have at the moment are black shoes and that is just too heavy for an easy, breezy oceanfront dinner.
I really like shopping, so I picked out some other things I would want for a beach vacation:

Xbox One and PlayStation 4, collectively accepted as 'Next Gen' consoles, accept the accommodation to acquiesce far added adult amateur with bigger graphics, a beyond gaming apple and added artistic bold development. The gaming accessible are aflame about the possibilities of Next Gen and are acquisitive to ascertain how the added capabilities of the Next Gen consoles will construe into bigger and added beautiful games. But with amazing cartoon already with us, area will the big bound in bold superior appear from?
During the accomplished ten years the a lot of cogent gaming advances accept appear from bigger in bold graphics. I bethink arena the aboriginal anytime Fifa Soccer bold for the Mega Drive and cerebration it looked fantastic. Try arena the bold now and it is archaic! Compare that with the NBA 2K 14 bold for PS4, area your computer amateur even appears to diaphoresis in a astute way during the bold and it is safe to say we accept accomplished a point area players attending about lifelike.
Not agreeable with searching realistic, amateur movement and AI accommodation authoritative mimics the absolute activity sports stars personality and arena style. Messi and Bale play like Messi and Bale in FIFA 14. This heightens accuracy and is added immersive. Next Gen gamers apprehend absorption to detail on every dash of a bold and the accepted set by the aboriginal amateur appear on Next Gen consoles has set the bar top for added developers to accommodated and in time, surpass.
It is such aboriginal canicule for Next Gen gaming that there is affluence of allowance for improvement. Compare the superior of amateur in PlayStation 3 if it was aboriginal appear to what is now getting appear today. We sit actuality in 2014 and brainstorm that we are not yet seeing a atom of the abeyant adequacy of Next Gen games.
The above absolution of 2013 for PS3 and Xbox was Grand Theft Auto 5. This bold presented the best bold accessible on accepted gen, binding every bit of ability out of the console. It can be advised a casual of the bake and an acceptance that this is as acceptable as it gets on the accepted gen consoles. Rockstar Gaming even said as much. GTA V accent that this was a starting point for PS4 and Xbox One, assuming the tantalising articulate catechism to the gamer, 'if we can action you this on accepted gen, brainstorm what we can accomplish with Next Gen?'
Early releases on Next Gen consoles accept taken advantage of the freedoms offered by bigger accouterments capacity, allotment to access the akin of captivation in the games. They accept called to empower the gamer to accomplish decisions that set the administration of their in bold experience. I accept this is the way advanced for approaching bold development. The constraints of PS3 agency that the 'rats in a maze' activity of some amateur can be airy and whilst every bold accept to accept its perimeters, the net can be casting added appropriately abbreviation the appulse of getting trapped like a pinball bouncing about but ultimately fatigued appear the amateur specific conclusion. With beyond in bold environments, the Next Gen accessible apple amateur offers added opportunities for the gamer to analyze sub-plots, area instead of just commutual set missions you can barter to acquire money, active businesses or artlessly analyze the all-inclusive in-game ambiance at your leisure.
Recent trailers of the accessible accessible apple bold 'Watchdog', which is appointed for absolution on Next Gen consoles from May 27th in the UK, authenticate that the user will be able to collaborate with any AI affiliate of the accessible beyond the all-inclusive basic Chicago mural in their role as a vigilante abnegation the abutting aegis arrangement in the city. The bold is so all-inclusive on Next Gen that developers Ubisoft accept acquaint online videos of hour-long bold play sessions after defective to anguish about accustomed abroad all the secrets of the game.
With the possibilities of accessible apple amateur so all-inclusive on Next Gen, it is actual absorbing to agenda that the a lot of acknowledged accessible apple bold developer, Rockstar Gaming, accept yet to absolution data of any approaching -to-be Next Gen titles, allotment instead to amend GTA V after this year. We apperceive from acquaintance that Rockstar can yield up to two years to bear a appellation on PS3 and it will acceptable yield at atomic this continued for a Next Gen game. I durably accept that Rockstar will set a new accepted and bear a ablaze Next Gen accessible apple game, far added all-inclusive than annihilation we accept apparent so far. Considering the attending of Watchdog, this will be a cogent accomplishment for Rockstar, if they get it right.
For those sports admirers and sports simulation lovers out there like me, one appellation has already set a top accepted for others to follow. NBA 2K 14 delivers an aberrant accepted of cartoon superior and the bold play looks as absolute as I can brainstorm seeing for some years. Even in this aboriginal date of Next Gen sports sim development, NBA 2K 14 has set a actual top standard. Their choices action a glimpse into how the developers will seek to use the ability of the Next Gen technology in approaching games. The vignettes area your amateur takes decisions off the cloister like interacting with opposing players, coaches, backroom agents and sponsors will be added developed to enhance the gaming experience, giving the gamer a added immersive acquaintance of activity as a able basketball amateur rather than absorption alone on bold play. I was afraid that such a able bold emerged so quickly. If this is as bad as sports sims get, PS4 will be a blessed abode for the sports gaming enthusiast.
Without a agnosticism bold developers are beneath burden to deliver. PS3 amateur were good, but PS4 gamers accept been conditioned to apprehend arete by the able-bodied advance of Next Gen and annihilation but a aciculate acceleration in superior will be met with derision by the boxy admirers who are quick to complaining any abominable release. Ask any Madden 25 fan who bought the PS4 version. With the barring of hardly smoother graphics, this bold could accept been appear for PS3 and differs alone hardly from the accepted gen console. That is not acceptable abundant and admirers of that authorization are assured bigger from the developers EA next year.
The claiming is set and gamers are acquisitive to see how the bold developers utilise the added adequacy of Next Gen and the freedoms offered to aftermath abundant games. Developers charge to antithesis the accepted bold exhaustion adjoin the call of bearing superior titles. With bigger graphics, added immersion, a bigger gaming acquaintance all-embracing and the ability of the internet to facilitate gaming battles about the world, Next Gen has befuddled us into a new era of animate gaming. With it comes a ache for the excellence, a added analytical eye and we watch with apprehension as the bold developers plan on new releases to yield advantage of Next Gen accommodation to aftermath bigger and added immersive games.

Daniel Agger has already set his sights on 200 Barclays Premier League appearances for Liverpool after making it a century of matches in the top flight against West Brom on Saturday.
The versatile Danish international, who has played in either the centre back or left back position during his time at Anfield, has been hampered by injuries during his time on Merseyside.
However, the 26-year-old former Brøndby starlet is hoping those problems are well-and-truly in the past, and is hoping to reach the next milestone in much quicker fashion.
"It's special to play 100 league games for Liverpool and it has been a long time coming because of the unlucky injuries I have had," he told the official Reds website.
"Hopefully now I can have an injury free run and I hope to keep on going and play another 100 games for this club. I am enjoying my football now.
"I feel I have been unlucky with injuries and hopefully I can get some good luck now because it means a lot to me to play for this club."
The 100th appearance was well-marked at The Hawthorns, with a rare clean sheet helping secure a 2-0 victory in the Midlands against former manager Roy Hodgson.
It's a result which has raised confidence levels at the club, according to Agger, and the Dane believes there are plenty of positives to take into this weekend's clash against Swansea City.
"It was so important for us to keep a clean sheet and that is always good for us defenders and great for the whole team as well," he continued.
"I thought we played well and deserved the three points. We are happy and we have to continue this form and keep winning games.
"I think we can take a lot from this result and we now look ahead to the next game against Swansea at home and try and get another three points."

During September 2012 the IUCN World Conservation Congress in South Korea adopted a resolution congratulating Australia for its landmark announcement to establish the world's largest network of marine reserves, and urging Australia to proclaim the network swiftly. Just weeks later the Australian Government did just that, and set in law the national network of marine reserves showing the world that Australia means business when it comes to protecting our oceans.
On the 16th of November 2012 the Australian Government formally proclaimed 40 new marine reserves in a network that builds on existing Commonwealth marine reserves. This added more than 2.3 million square kilometres to Australia's marine reserve estate, resulting in approximately a third of our ocean territory (3.1 million square kilometres) now in marine reserve with approximately 13% of this in an IUCN I or II protected area.
A national network of marine reserves has been in the making since the 1990s. It was started under the Howard Coalition Government and is now being finalised by the Gillard Labor Government. But the process is not quite over. The Australian Government is currently preparing the management plans for the new marine reserves. It is expected that they will be established under Australia's national environment law after being tabled in the Australian Parliament in the coming months.
Tens of thousands of Australians from east to west have said yes to the federal government's plan to create the world's largest network of marine parks. Australians value their oceans and marine life and are aware that protection must be improved if we are to continue to benefit from them and hand on healthy oceans to future generations. It is clear from this overwhelming response that Australians want the Government to get on with the job and finalise a process that will bequeath an ocean legacy that future generations will thank us for.

Author Notes: To the uninitiated North Americans, the pavlova's closest relative would be the meringue ...but with a soft yet chewy centre that melts in your mouth. This is a recipe that has been passed through the generations of Australasians yet one we still argue as to the origins. Whip out a pavlova at a mixed Antipodean event and there is bound to be a lengthy discussion about its birthrights. —Kate Thompson
Makes: 16
1 1/2
cups fine granulated Sugar
egg whites (room temperature)
teaspoon white vinegar
1 /1/2
teaspoons best vanilla essence (or 1 tsp vanilla bean paste)
Pavlova Topping
1 1/2
cups heavy whipping cream
packet freshly washed mixed berries (eg raspberries, blackberries or blueberries)
bunch roughly chopped fresh mint
cup roasted, roughly crushed hazelnuts
In This Recipe
- Pre heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Beat egg whites with salt using an electric mixer until they form a stiff peak. (This can take 5 - 10 minutes, depending on weather and humidity).
- Gradually add fine granulated sugar (quarter of a cup at a time) beating at full speed until all sugar is added. Mixture should look white, glossy and stiff.
- Using a spatula, fold in vinegar and vanilla.
- Set out mini cupcake cases inside a mini muffin tin/baker tray.
- Using a mini ice cream scoop or teaspoon, scoop out mixture and place into cupcake cases. This doesn't have to be neat, you want to sculpt it so it forms a slight dip in the middle (as this is where the cream and topping will go when it is cooked and cooled.
- Reduce heat in the oven to 300F and bake 20- 30 minutes.
- Turn off oven and leave pavlovas in oven until completely cooled (or overnight for the ultimate sticky pavlova sensation!).
Pavlova Topping
- Roast hazelnuts under broiler for a few minutes (watch carefully as they can easily burn!). Remove husks and crush, using a mortar and pestle - do not over crush, keep it rustic.
- Whip cream using electric mixer.
- Add a dollop of cream to the top of each pavlova, and decorate with berries, mint
- This recipe was entered in the contest for Your Best One-Bite Party Snack

2018 Volvo XC90 Review: If Thor?s Hammer Were a Paintbrush
Overview: As manufacturers introduce more and more SUVs and crossovers into the marketplace, it?s becoming increasingly difficult for them to stand out. Some companies have attempted bold, polarizing exteriors, while others have dropped entries into previously unpopulated segments such as SUV ?coupes? and the like, and many hope to attract buyers with advanced propulsion and technology solutions. But for the Volvo XC90, there?s no trick formula. The Swedes simply executed a traditional blueprint to its fullest potential. READ MORE ??

openSUSE 11.0: A Versatile Linux Server
Versatile For Many Roles
September 5, 2008
OpenSUSE 11.0 does a great job on the desktop, but it shines equally as bright in the server role. Everything you need to set up most any type of server comes on the OpenSUSE 11.0 installation DVD. The trick is narrowing down the options to the ones you'll really need. While you could have a single 'do everything' box, you might want to consider separating out some of the functionality for security and reliability reasons.
We'll go through some of the more popular server options and hit the highlights of getting each one installed. Deciding on how to parcel out the roles to different machines will depend a lot on your situation and what type of activity you need to support. For discussion purposes we'll assume a typical small-to-medium business scenario as we go through the different options.
File and Print
Sharing files and a printer has been the most common use case for servers since they were first conceived. Samba provides both client and server applications to share files from a central location. One thing you'll need to consider if you plan on providing services to Windows-based clients is the potential need for a Primary Domain Controller (PDC) if there isn't one already on your network. There's a good article on the openSUSE site with details on getting everything configured properly.
Centralized printing is another common service needed for small workgroups. Implementing Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is one of the most common options for sharing a printer from a Linux host. The most straightforward way to set this up requires a static IP address for the Linux host. For a good step-by-step set of instructions check out the Linux Documentation Project Printing HOWTO page. Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) administration is available by accessing port 631 on the server with a web browser as in:
if you're on the server itself.

VIDEO:Dario Saric is a top-flight overseas prospect in the 2014 Draft
The top of the 2014 Draft took another likely turn when possible lottery pick Dario Saric, a versatile forward from Croatia, reached an agreement on a contract with a team in Turkey that will likely keep him in Europe at least two more seasons, ESPN.com reported Monday.
Saric, No. 11 to the Nuggets in the NBA.com mock Draft, reportedly has a three-year deal in place that includes a player option for the final season, giving him a lot of flexibility. By the end of his third season in Turkey, Saric would come to the NBA with the team that drafted him, but not be constrained by the rookie scale.
A rising prospect in Europe for years, Saric is inefficient on offense, sometimes taking bad shots and sometimes forcing turnovers. But, the 6-foot-10, 235-pounder has impressed front offices with a multi-skilled game that includes being able to handle the ball in half court or transition while being compared, at times, to ex-Chicago Bulls standout Toni Kukoc.
Also Monday, new co-owner Marc Lasry ruled out the possibility the Bucks will take injured center Joel Embiid with the second pick, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported. Speaking to the Milwaukee Press and Rotary Club, Lasry strongly indicated the decision Thursday night would come down to the player the Cavaliers do not take at No. 1, Jabari Parker or Andrew Wiggins.
Parker is projected to go first in the NBA.com mock, Wiggins second.
Lasry's comments were not a surprise in that the Bucks were a longshot to take Embiid anyway. But teams generally don't like to offer such strong hints leading to the Draft unless it is meant to stir the trade waters, and saying they would pass on Embiid won't do that. The possibility still exists Milwaukee was trying to force a better offer if someone wanted to move to No. 2 to get Wiggins.

OAKLAND — Kathy Kallick, leader of the eponymous Kathy Kallick Band, has been playing bluegrass in the Bay Area since 1975. This summer, her band released a new album called "Time," and many of the songs reflect on Kallick's life and experiences during decades in the music business.
Over the years, Kallick has written more than 100 original songs and released 17 albums, but her voice still bubbles with excitement when she talks about the music. It's as if the young woman from Chicago, who moved to San Francisco and was swept away by the bluegrass scene, is just right below the surface.
Kallick remembers the first time she saw a bluegrass band play live and how forceful the impact was on her.
"Bluegrass was this big visceral exciting ensemble thing, it was this powerful thing that came off the stage at you," Kallick said. "And the songs were interesting and really compelling, you know, they were story songs. And the singing I loved. The singing was just so full of feeling and really soulful."
Kallick started her first band in 1975 and began writing her own songs, a taboo in bluegrass. Many musicians at the time felt that straying from traditional lyrics and musical interpretations was an unnecessary departure from the standard set by Bill Monroe, the father of bluegrass. It was especially controversial for a woman.
It has been Kallick's goal to put women's voices and experiences in music traditionally sung and written by men. This female perspective can even be subversive, she says. One of her songs, "Walkin' in My Shoes," was inspired by a friend's struggles with domestic violence. The song spent a year at the top of the national bluegrass charts, and even old-school DJs related to the feminist message without quite realizing it.
A lot has changed in the industry in the past three decades, and "Time" attempts to chart that progression. Kallick wrote the song "Fare Thee Well" as a sweet way to end a set, but says that the result for many listeners is unintentionally sad. She sings in a keening voice; "Think on the best of all our times/The gladdest moments we shared/ Hold dear the favorite funny lines/The boldest truths we may have bared."
The title track, also called "Time," has a gritty fiddle intro that Kallick wrote for her 26-year-old fiddle player, Annie Staninec. Kallick says the song is about the interesting feeling of aging, and how every stage of her life is still relevant today. The song ends: "When all is said and done there's just no way to run from time, time, time."
The Kathy Kallick Band, in its current form, has Tom Bekeny on the mandolin, Greg Booth on the dobro, Sharon Gilchrist on the bass (Dan Booth is on the album) and Staninec on the fiddle. Kallick and Bekeny have been playing together since 1996, but she says that even someone new to the band can play based on shared knowledge.
"The great thing about bluegrass is that you come together, people that have never met, and there's this common vocabulary of songs, so you can play instantly," Kallick said. "And that's what's happened. You can say 'Well what do you know, what do you know?' and you can play."
A full list of performance dates can be found at www.kathykallick.com/schedule.html

Wilum Pugmire
Wilum Pugmire, aka W. H. Pugmire, is a writer and fanzine editor from Seattle, Washington, U.S.A.
Wilum Pugmire began publishing zines in the mid 1970s with the release of Midnight Fantasies in 1973, followed by Old Bones in 1976, both devoted to the macabre, weird fiction, H. P. Lovecraft and Arkham House publications. Both titles also featured contributions from Pugmire's long time friend Jessica Amanda Salmonson.
For his next zine, he went in a different direction. Punk Lust, released in 1981, was devoted to Punk music, covering the scene in the Pacific Northwest. Wilum Pugmire has written that "Punk rock gave me the guts to be myself, and for this I shall be eternally grateful."
In the 1990s Pugmire became a writer for horror and fantasy zines, with a particular interest in H. P. Lovecraft and the Cthulhu Mythos. He has contributed his own element to the Mythos in the form of Sesqua Valley, a fictional area in the Pacific Northwest that is the primary location of much of his fiction. He is a frequent contributor to small press magazines as well as the revived Weird Tales, the horror pulp magazine that brought Lovecraft's fiction to the attention of the general public. His official biography states that his "goal as an author is to dwell forevermore within Lovecraft's titan shadow."
He has been a contributor to zines since the 1970s.

MoonThe blogger in question is clearly a Hasidic Jew. Some have wondered if his simplicity is naive or deliberate; I lean towards the latter - though I think his childlike wonder is genuine, I think his strange poetic evocations of it reflect a high degree of sophistication, though quite possibly a homemade sophistication.

'Never in my life would I have thought that I would end up as a professional opera singer,' says Jette Parker Young Artist Hanna Hipp. However, the mezzo-soprano, now in her final months of the Young Artists Programme, has performed numerous roles on the Covent Garden Main Stage over the past two years. She has sung alongside some of the world's greatest opera stars and is already booked to perform at the Turku Festival in Finland, and with Scottish Opera and Glyndebourne.
'I realized that could sing when I was about eight and I always got solos in the children's choir,' she explains. 'The rehearsals on a Saturday morning were obligatory, but for me they were a real treat as singing gave me such pleasure.'
Hanna began to focus on singing professionally when she was 17, studying at the Stanisław Moniuszko Academy of Music in Gdańsk and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where she graduated from the Opera Course with distinction. 'The course at GSMD was spontaneous – fate sort of led me there,' she explains, 'but it was where it all started and it's been a fun journey. It was an inspiring and mind-blowing experience to be part of.'
Hanna joined the Jette Parker Young Artists Programme in 2011, making her Main Stage debut in the Plácido Domingo Celebration as Emilia in Verdi's Otello. 'Debuting in the gala was a great challenge and opportunity,' she says. 'It was amazing to be on stage with Domingo, the biggest star, but it was also the first reality-check. In a gala, you have to be able to perform a character in just one scene rather than a full opera. I remember thinking: 'If I can do this, I will probably be ok for the next two years'.'
She has since performed in productions ranging from Berlioz's epic Les Troyens to Mozart's Die Zauberflöte, as well as preparing cover roles for Wagner's Ring Cycle, Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin, and George Benjamin's ground-breaking Written on Skin.
Charles Castronovo as Tamino, Gaynor Keeble as Third Lady, Anita Watson as First Lady and Hanna Hipp as Second Lady in Die Zauberflöte
'I absolutely adored Les Troyens,' she says. 'To step into a new production as a young singer and prove you are worthy is challenging, but I had wonderful support from the team, including David McVicar and Tony Pappano. It was a real treat for me.
'Similarly, the whole process of cover roles was invaluable. To learn the role so that it is always under your belt is an investment that pays off.'
Hanna will shortly be performing the role of Bianca in Puccini's La rondine, which opens on 5 July. Nicolas Joël's production is set in the decadent glamour of 1920s France and Hanna will sing in an ensemble alongside fellow Jette Parker Young Artists Justina Gringyte and Dušica Bijelić.
'It's really surprising that La rondine is not staged more often,' she says. 'It has beautiful colours and wonderful orchestration. There is a lightness that just carries you away. I always enjoy ensemble roles as you have to be a team player and very precise in the musical aspects. It's also something of a farewell as there are quite a few Young Artists on stage at the same time.'
In addition to performances on the Main Stage, Hanna has received training in all aspects of opera, ranging from stagecraft and body movement workshops to vocal instruction and language tuition. However, classes aside, she emphasizes that the biggest benefit of the programme has been learning how to manage the workload as a professional opera singer.
'Beyond the classes, the Programme teaches you how quickly you have to prepare roles,' she explains. 'Now, I'm aware of what might be expected of me when I show up to a production: you need to be on the ball from day one and arrive with a concept of the role already in your head.'
La rondine runs from 5 - 21 July. Tickets are available now. The Jette Parker Young Artists Programme is supported by Oak Foundation.

BFX launches financial training for students
Manama, March 19, 2012
The Bahrain Financial Exchange (BFX), the first multi-asset exchange in the Mena region, has launched a series of workshops aimed at imparting knowledge of financial derivatives for university students in Bahrain.
Titled "Understanding the Financial Derivatives Markets from Theory to Practice", the workshops shall be conducted at the state-of-the-art BFX Training Institute (BFX-TI) premises located at the Bahrain Financial Harbour.
The inaugural training sessions will be provided to the top 20 students specialising in the field of finance from the Royal University for Women (RUW) and the University College of Bahrain (UCB) on March 29 and April 2 respectively, followed by students from the other universities and colleges.
The BFX educational workshops - to be conducted by its training arm BFX-TI - are specifically designed to enable university students to increase their knowledge and understanding of how modern electronic financial derivative exchanges function.
The workshops will include hands-on experience on the state-of-the-art BFX trading platform which is internationally accessible for trading on both the Islamic and conventional financial instruments.
The training shall also highlight the growth and development of major international exchanges, hedging and investment strategies as well as arbitrage and spread trading. A special session shall be conducted on the growing significance of Islamic finance and the role played by the exchanges in aiding the growth of the Islamic finance industry.
All participants shall be provided with a participation certificate, with additional merit certificates for trainees achieving distinction.
Arshad Khan, managing director and chief executive officer of the BFX and the BFX Clearing and Depository Corporation (BCDC), said: "Offering direct interactions with the experts and core executors of the Exchange is a unique and valuable experience for the university students."
"The financial derivatives markets are an important part of the global finance industry offering substantial business and employment opportunities. Exchanges like the BFX are very unique in the region and with such training programs; the student community in Bahrain will be exposed to a very distinctive aspect that they have yet to experience. We are pleased to introduce these workshop sessions as an ongoing annual event."
Dr Rachna Banerjee, assistant professor, Department of Banking and Finance, RUW said: "The faculty of Banking & Finance at the Royal University for Women is extremely pleased with this unique learning opportunity being offered to our students by the BFX to provide a practical insight into the real-world of financial instruments trading and hands-on experience using the latest technologies."
"Our participation in this workshop is intended to facilitate our students in enhancing their practical skills and application of theoretical concepts demonstration. We believe that this training will be a valuable experience for the students and our participation reiterates RUW's earnest endeavour in striving to enrich the learning process with an emphasis on student-centred activities such as these."
Sutan Emir Hidayat, senior lecturer, UCB, added: "The workshop will surely benefit our students. Relying solely on finance textbooks to understand derivatives market will not be sufficient for the students to obtain a good understanding on how a financial exchange functions." – TradeArabia News Service

Making use of fuel hydrogen for cars is around for more than a few years. There are some lucky few who have got benefited from these new techniques, which permit them to make use of water in car in order to gain mpg in this radical way. Here is a easy breakdown of how water and gas method exactly works.
How this system works
The technology that is used for implementation of hydrogen fuel for the cars is nothing very new. In fact, it has been around for a very long time. There are thousands of pages on Internet that will give details how it works, but majority of it is filled with the scientific crud, which will loose majority of the people. I will keep it very simple as possible, as it is quite easy to put into practice.
Let it be identified that you don't require going to extreme such as over hauling the engines or else redoing the whole thing under your hood. The hydrogen fuel for cars is done in a pretty simple way, with necessary tools and supplies, which you can pick from any local hardware shop.
Making Use hydrogen fuel cars
It uses your car battery to separate water (that is what you put in, besides gas that you already use) from gas that is called "HHO". It has one part of oxygen and other two parts of hydrogen. When it is mixed together, HHO is three times more powerful that any of the gas is.
Under your hood quart sized container is placed and it is filled with tap water, with a little of baking soda. Bear in mind that everything other than the tap water is not compulsory in most of the cases. After that comes little vacuum action that is caused by engines itself. The electricity comes from the engines, and it makes HHO, which is necessary for hydrogen fuel for cars.
However these all are basics, however getting your car to run with hydrogen will take little more steps. You will have to make some easy modifications in order to fit the container under your hood; you will see that the easiest blueprints are found on the Internet. A guide that is found on Internet is as well something, which is suggested, since it makes ten times faster to apply.
At present, rich and wealthy people will see at this know-how and believe it is not worth of their time and money, but it is middle class people who will get advantage from it the main. Do yourself a little favor and go on Internet and search for the forums and you will see there are hundreds of posts concerning it. You can also make a well-versed decision when evaluating results from the people who have by now given it a go also tested it out in car. However using hydrogen fuel for the cars is a bit that a lot of people are supposed to think looking in and forums are easy way to get information.
