The spinning gold coin that the Vicar flipped into the middle of the table landed with a dull thump alongside the pile of other coins and various objects in the middle of the velvet-covered table. This particular coin had the design of a tentacled, multi-mouthed creature etched upon it. I had long since given up wondering where the Vicar procured such currency; I knew only that it wasn't from somewhere walked by the general populace. This annual tournament which I normally arranged around the Winter Solstice was instead being held a fortnight before mid-summer, a time of hot happenings and sticky fumblings.
Seated around the table, which was a the top of my southern tower, were of course the Vicar, resplendent in his scarlet silk robes, a sash of cream running across his ample torso, a hat woven from blonde gypsy hair and festooned with a dodo feather sat sideways on his bald pate. To his left sat Verneer Suth'amon, a warlock whom I had met during the Rak Campaigns of '79. He sat, sunk back into his chair, a heavy woolen robe his only couture, his face entirely shrouded in darkness. A glint from his eye, or a flash of his filed teeth, were all that one could glimpse. He radiated power like heat from an oven.
To his left sat our final guest, a little person named Faulk. I had assumed he arrived with the Vicar, but a quick question during a break had dispelled that notion. Not knowing how he had come to be a participant in this game, much less how he had gotten past the gargoyles, I was amused and intrigued enough to let him continue. Besides, he was terrible at cards. With the Vicar's ante, we resumed play. The warlock folded with a grunt, and play passed to Faulk. He studied his cards for a moment, a slight widening of his eye was all that I needed to know that he had a decent hand, though not a great one. He leaned down and rummaged through the blood-stained burlap bag that sat on the floor beside his chair.
Plucking something from the bag, he tossed it into the middle of the pile. The Vicar's gasp echoed by own, Vermeer shot forward to the edge of his seat, expressing his first emotion of the night. Here before us was a treasure few thought we would ever witness, much less have it show up in such unceremonious manner. I turned to look at Faulk, raising one eyebrow as I stared. He met my gaze confidently and laid down his cards. The Knight of Shadows rose above The Smith and was juxtaposed with The Virgin. A top hand, one of the best in fact, though I had him beat.
The Vicar barked a laugh and folded his cards before him, signaling the serving wench to bring more wine. Faulk turned to me, triumph already stealing across his pock-marked face. I calmly spread my cards upon the table. The Queen of Dreams above The Standard juxtaposed by Beef Curtain. The highest hand in the game. The color drained from Faulk's face as I picked up his wager. "Mistress Kate… she'll have my head if I don't return to her with that!", he shrieked, his jaw falling slack as he began to shake. "Well, you should have thought of that before you wagered it, yes?" I said. The object in my hands, one that I finally would be able to see with my own eyes, is of course…
The Girl Slaves of Morgana La Fay. The title alone promises so much, and boy does it deliver! Once again we must all prostrate ourselves before the magnificent awesomeness that is '70's French cinema. They just knew how to get things done, and this film stands as one of their crowning achievements. Our movie opens with a coven of elderly women, all wearing black robes, who have a nubile, naked blonde chick in their clutches. Apparently she has been found naughty in their sight and is being cast out. The leader of the elders is none other than Gurth, a purple-suited, tranny-faced dwarf with a majestic hump on his back and a penchant for running like a deer, but I'm getting ahead of myself.
We then cut to two hotties, a brunette named Francoise and a blonde named Anna, who are going on a country drive for some reason. We don't know, nor do we care, because we just want to see them disrobe and fondle each other, but once again I race ahead, my eagerness to bring you filth knowing no bounds. Soon our girls arrive at an inn, and, parking in the middle of the road, they head in for a drink. The inn is packed full of nefarious looking local dudes, and of course Gurth. Having not seen any women other than their haggard wives, these men give the ladies a good hard stare. Ordering mulled wine and a coffee from the innkeeper (who is dressed to the nines in a black turtleneck and houndstooth jacket), the girls notice that Gurth in particular is giving them the stink-eye.
They decide to continue on after Gurth leaves via the back door. Onward they drive, into the night, where they are quickly lost, seeming to pass the same hedgerow over and over. They spot a nearby barn and decide to take shelter for the night. Lacking nothing else to do, they begin MAKING OUT! Now here's what we all signed up for, am I right folks? Yes, I am. Anna takes point, her hand running inside Francoise's shirt, pinching things that need pinching. This smoking hot scene is over before it began, leaving the viewer at full tumescence and with the lingering need to take a cold shower.
Fran awakes the next morning to find Anna missing. A quick search of the grounds reveals Gurth, who poses with such power and presence that one can feel the heat from his loins through the television. He bids Fran to follow him if she wants to see Anna again. With no other course of action, Fran follows Gurth as he leaps and bounds through the woods like a deer descended from heaven. Such grace, such beauty! His leaping and scampering is only out-shown by his magnificent gray-shot locks and his unparalleled make-up skills.
Gurth leads Fran to a boat, which is decorated with animal skins and scented candles. Fran boards it, and it moves of its own accord, taking her to a nearby castle. Waiting for her are the Pastel Sisters, 3 women wearing see-through pastel-colored robes who quickly take her into the castle, despite Fran's questions as to where Anna is. Soon Fran meets the titular Morgana La Fay, a busty brunette who has the twin habits of wearing low-cut robes and kissing women, two traits that all busty brunettes should have, I'm sure you'll agree.
We cut to a scene of Gurth, who is apparently employed as the caretaker of Morgana's slave girls, reclining on an animal-skin rug (they have lots of these in the castle. Seriously, a whole forest worth of animals were felled to give props for this movie), a slave girl running her fingers through his hair as he watches two other girls get busy with each other. Ahh, the life of Gurth! He orders the girl combing his hair to join the other three, an action that elevates the scene 10 fold.
Meanwhile, Fran is going along with things quite well. She throws a question about Anna in a few times but otherwise she allows herself to be disrobed and bathed by the Pastels Sisters, a scene which I will have to recreate next Saturnalia. A sumptuous meal is provided, with wine poured by Gurth. Morgana explains that she is basically a powerful witch who has mastered time, which she demonstrates by turning mid-day into night. She further explains that she holds the key to eternal beauty, and also that she loves pink tacos for an after-dinner snack.
She takes Fran over by a roaring fire, a hookah is brought in, Fran smokes it, Morgana kisses her a bit, and my turgid member knows no rest. We soon get a bit of character development for Gurth, as a scene unfolds in which he is alone in his bedroom, talking to himself in the mirror. We learn that he is in love with Morgana, but that she doesn't reciprocate, seeing him as something of a footstool. Gurth vows that one day he'll be master over all, and we don't doubt his verve. I suspect he's been taking Ionized Yeast supplements.
Next up, we have Gurth leading the Pastel Sisters and Morgana down into the bowels of the castle for a ritual. He is, however, forbidden to watch. Once again Gurth is snubbed! The ritual in question finally reveals to us what Anna has been about. She's tied up in the center of a room while the Old Crone Crew watches on. One of the Sisters tells Anna that she must submit to Morgana's power, and thus receive eternal beauty, or defy her and turn into an old women. Hmm… decisions decisions. Anna chooses eternal beauty, of course, and partakes of the Jesus Juice that is offered to her. Thusly, she joins Morgana's harem.
Meanwhile, Fran thinks it is high time that she vacated the area, so off she goes, wearing naught but a skimpy nightie and no shoes. However, she doesn't go far, as the magic boat is gone. Choosing potential death over an eternity of luxury, Fran dives in and swims for it. She reaches the other side and begins running through the forest, only to run right into Morgana, who has a picnic prepared. Fran turns and runs again, only to once again run into another Morgana picnic! Realizing that she can't escape, Fran gives up. Morgana reveals her true feelings, promising to teach Fran all of her magic, something we quickly find out she has denied the Pastel Sisters.
Unbeknownst to Morgana, the Pastel Sister have been listening in via scrying to all that is going on, in a scene shot to so in such a way that I was instantly reminded of an Abba video. Jealous to the extreme, they begin to plot.
Gurth is enlisted, since he is tired of Morgana's refusals, and a plan is set in motion. Gurth tells Fran that the three Sisters hold talismans of power, and should she acquire them then she can escape. One is a necklace, which Fran steals, and the other a tunic worn by one of the Sisters, whom Fran seduces and beds in a scene so smoking hot that I had to dunk my hog into a bucket of ice water after viewing. This scene is inter-cut with a collection of lezbonic orgy activities deep in Morgana's harem that is so epic I thought for a minute that I was back at Vicar's winter cottage during the fall of '89 watching "Where The Boys Aren't 9" whilst getting drunk on oozo.
Fran is successful, but Gurth is found out. He is tied up and left for dead in a tower. Fran goes to him, and in a touching scene the benevolent Gurth gives up his ring, which apparently gives him long life, in order to help Fran escape. Gurth, the sprite-like dwarf of giant stature, dies. Fran, now in control of various castle facilities, makes use of the magic boat and is able to finally pass through the magic forest. She rubs Gurth's ring on a stump, which summons a mighty steed, which whisks her away.
Upon arriving back in civilization, however, the first thing Fran runs into is an old woman. Seeing the twisted ravages of age on the wizened visage before her, Fran cannot contain her revulsion. Making the decision we all would have made several hours ago, Fran decides to return to the castle to live out eternity with nothing else to do than sip wine and gaze upon free-range teat.
In a scene that defies all logic, Morgana meets Fran at the edge of the forest and escorts her to the inn where Fran and Anna first hooked up. Fran gazes through the window and sees… herself, lying with Anna in the hay! WTF? Is she just remembering that fond time, or are we in some sort of time warp? Perhaps Anna and Fran are still there sleeping on the hay, eternally at rest while their souls reside in Morgana's castle.
Whatever the case, it isn't important, because this movie is rife with dwarves and lesbian activities and so I salute it. The sheer amount of unaltered breast in this movie, coupled with Olympic-level muff diving and see-through gowns, give The Girl Slaves of Morgana La Fay 3 solid thumbs up from yours truly. This film is a gem that all of my readers should own. We must salute Gurth, played by the great Alfred Baillou, who sadly passed away in 1982 at the ripe old age of 67.
Keep reaching for that rainbow, you dashing hunchback!

DAMNABLE DWARF! I really need to get better help. I hope I'll be able to barter for that disc in some manner or another, lest I be forced to go all panzeriffic on your Dukedom.
I suppose I'll forgive Faulk eventually, as your review brims with honeyed words that are FILLED WITH heart mellowed somehow mellowed. Also, the ABBA reference. Well-played, sir. APPROVED.

You will be pleased to know that Faulk, in full-blown panic mode, leapt to his death after first trying to wrest the disc from my hands. He splattered across an inner courtyard and was quickly devoured by the fell beasts contained therein.
I'll send one of my minions to bring the disc back to ya, so don't be alarmed if, when you step out of the shower, a tall, hairless mute is standing there wearing only a loincloth, bearing your movie on a silk pillow.

OK--the above is what I get for C&P'ing my responses and hitting PUBLISH COMMENT without fully copy editing. My cleverness failed me in a bout of computer-related vomit last night ;)
Your mute manservant should be a eunuch if he expects to get anywhere near the Tenebrous Toilette Process. Otherwise I find the Girl Slaves get distracted which is so thoroughly not-OK.

bareMinerals and OPI, a brand favoured by nail-art lover Serena Williams, have partnered together this Christmas to create a gorgeous duo of matching lip and nail colours.
The duo, which was launched on QVC this December, is available in four colours: Classic Red, Shocking Pink, Naturally Nude or Sugary Pink. Priced at £20.50, I think it would make a great Christmas gift for your sister, mum or best friend!
My personal favourite is the Shocking Pink option as I love bareMinerals' Pretty Amazing lip colour, called "Ambition". As the name suggests, the shade is not for the timid type, but if it's statement lips you want, then this is definitely the colour for you.
bareMinerals European Make-up Artist, Sarah-Jane Froom suggests you use the point of the Pretty Amazing applicator to line the lips, then fill lips using the flat of the wand.
The name of the OPI nail lacquer, "I'm INDI-a Mood for Love", aptly reflects its vibrant hue. As can be seen in the photos, I like to team this nail lacquer with some stunning Lilac Nail Candy by LCN, which is available to buy for £5.70 from beautyconcepts.co.uk.
"Always apply 2 coats of OPI nail lacquer to nails to see the shade's true depth of colour," says Lisa Bennett, director of Lena White Ltd. "OPI's pro-wide brush gives you control with your application for a professional finish, every time."
Hurry, there's still time to order before Christmas!

Topic: The easiest way to upgrade Dovecot 1.x to 2.0 on RHEL/CentOS 5.
Hi, all.
Just want to show you how easy to upgrade Dovecot-1.x to 2.0 on RHEL/CentOS 5.
We are going to setup a new virtual machine with RHEL/CentOS 6, so that we have a working config file for Dovecot-2.0. Then simply copy it after we upgraded Dovecot packages.
[+] If you don't want to setup a new virtual machine, we have a sample Dovecot-2.0 config file available for your use: https://bitbucket.org/zhb/iredmail/raw/ … ecot2.conf
[+] If you're running Debian, just setup a Debian virtual machine to get sample Dovecot-2 config file. The same to other Linux/BSD distributions.
Important notes before you start
[+] The latest iRedMail forces clients to use secure connection for POP3 and IMAP services, if you don't want to do this, please check this tutorial: How to allow insecure POP3/IMAP connection
*) Download Dovecot-2.0 from below URLs:
[+] Dovecot-2.0.x: http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot-2.0.x/
[+] dovecot-managesieve and dovecot-pigeonhole: http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot-pigeonhole/
*) Backup Dovecot config file first.
[+] WARNING: Please copy files with '-p' option to keep file owner and permission.
[+] Note: We backup /etc/dovecot.conf, but we don't use it for upgrading at all. it's useful if you want to downgrade from Dovecot-2.0 to 1.x.
# mkdir /root/dovecot-backup/
# cp -p /etc/dovecot.conf /root/dovecot-backup/old.dovecot.conf
# cp -p /etc/dovecot-* /root/dovecot-backup/
*) Setup a virtual machine (VMware/Xen/VirtualBox/KVM/etc), install RHEL/CentOS 6 on it. Then deploy iRedMail. iRedMail will install Dovecot-2.0 for you. Its config files are all placed under /etc/dovecot/. Main config file is /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.
Again, If you don't want to setup a new virtual machine, we have a sample Dovecot-2.0 config file available for your use: https://bitbucket.org/zhb/iredmail/raw/ … ecot2.conf
Note: iRedMail doesn't use config files under /etc/dovecot/conf.d/.
[+] Copy /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf to your iRedMail server which running Dovecot-1.x. assume it's /root/dovecot2.conf.
[+] Now open /root/dovecot2.conf, make sure you have the same values for below parameter as Dovecot-1.x.
# Make sure Dovecot has right owner/permission to store received emails.
mail_uid =
mail_gid =
first_valid_uid =
last_valid_uid =
# Make sure Dovecot will delivers email to correct mailboxes.
mail_location = maildir:/%Lh/Maildir/:INDEX=/%Lh/Maildir/
# Append this domain name if client gives empty realm (no '@domain.com' part in login username).
auth_default_realm =
# Make sure per-user sieve filters can be read/write.
sieve_dir = /%Lh/sieve
sieve = /%Lh/sieve/dovecot.sieve
After you sync above parameters in new config file, it's ready to upgrade Dovecot-1.x.
*) Stop Dovecot service and remove RPM packages.
# /etc/init.d/dovecot
# rpm -e dovecot dovecot-managesieve dovecot-pigeonhole
*) Install Dovecot-2.0 you download. it's mentioned above (step 1).
# rpm -ivh dovecot-2.0.xxx dovecot-pigeonhole-xxx dovecot-managesieve-xxx
*) Copy sample config file to /etc/dovecot/:
# cp /root/dovecot2.conf /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# chown root:root /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# chmod 0664 /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
*) Restore backup files to /etc/dovecot/. Again, copy files with '-p' option to keep file owner and permission.
# cp -p /root/dovecot-backup/dovecot-* /etc/dovecot/
*) It's now ok to restart Dovecot service and testing:
# /etc/init.d/dovecot restart
Dovecot logs to /var/log/dovecot.log by default, so please send some testing emails and make sure no error occur.
After upgrading
[+] You may want to move /etc/dovecot*.conf (used by Dovecot-1.x) to another place to avoid confusion.

At most events set up by the U.S. Golf Association, there's a long line of players complaining about how hard and slick the greens are.
Thanks to heavy rains overnight -- and almost 4 inches of precipitation in the last week -- that isn't a problem at the U.S. Senior Open at Inverness Club.
In Friday's second round, delayed 2 hours and 45 minutes by an early morning cloudburst, the problem was the greens -- usually as fast as a slippery slide -- were downright slow and spongy.
"I think all of us are a little thrown off," said Jay Haas, who shot a 69 after the storms left. "We get a downhill putt and I don't think people are getting the ball to the hole because we just think it's going to be fast."
Usually, a USGA setup involves narrow fairways, greens that register "marble floor" on the Stimpmeter and high rough.
Some of the players are thankful that Inverness isn't baring her usual fangs.
"I played here when (Paul) Azinger won," said Peter Senior, referring to Azinger's playoff win over Greg Norman in the 1993 PGA Championship. "You'd get on the wrong side of the hole and you had 6 or 7 feet to clean up. So we're pretty fortunate that the greens are as soft as they are. Even when you miss it short side now, you can still get up and down reasonably easy."
The weather forecast is for clear skies, temperatures in the 90s and high humidity for the rest of the weekend.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: Nick Price, on going from the cool and windy climate at last week's Senior British Open to the heat and humidity at this week's U.S. Senior Open: "It feels like we've gone from Alaska to the Amazon."
QUOTE OF THE DAY II: Mark Calcavecchia, on the same subject: "Last week I was intentionally trying to be cold because I knew I was going to be hot as hell for about a month at least."
NOT HIS FAVORITE: It was a loaded question, but Calcavecchia didn't care: Were you a good U.S. Open player?
"No. I was a horrible Open player. I've never sniffed it in a U.S. Open," said the loquacious former British Open champion.
He said it's easy to see why.
"Historically, the rough's usually chip-out rough and I'm not exactly (ultra-straight) Calvin Peete or David Toms or Fred Funk with the driver. I tend to hit it a little bit crooked, and that usually doesn't pan out well in the U.S. Open."
There are exceptions, he said.
"Phil (Mickelson) has no idea where it's going (off the tee) and he's had five seconds in the U.S. Open," Calcavecchia said, drawing laughs from reporters. "So I guess that disproves my theory. But I'm not Phil, either."
HOMETOWN BOY: Steve Schaff almost waited too long to sneak back into his hometown. Now he's making the most of it.
Schaff was 3 over par with four holes left in his U.S. Senior Open qualifier in Florida, but finished birdie-ace-birdie-birdie to make it into a playoff with Damon Green, whose day job is caddieing for Zach Johnson on the PGA Tour.
Even though Schaff, who attended the University of Toledo, lost out in a playoff, he still joined the field this week as an alternate. He showed consistency -- 39-39--78 each day -- but was doomed to miss the cut at Inverness Club.
Still, he was thrilled to even be a part of the tournament.
"Day 2 of the dream," he said with a smile after Friday's second round. "It was really great. I felt a lot better today. Just being out there with John Cook and Peter Jacobsen was a lot of fun. I really wish I could have played better. I didn't score great, but this was an experience of a lifetime, for sure."
The 54-year-old said down the road he'll have one memory in particular.
"The people here at my home, the reception, just the love I felt from all the friends that I've had and people I've worked for and worked with over the years here," he said. "I really don't have words to describe the experienced I've had. It's going to take some time to sink in. But it's amazing."
SELF-IMPROVEMENT: Mark Wiebe's hopes in the U.S. Senior Open were slipping away. Then, like any good do-it-yourselfer, he restructured his game.
After making two bogeys and a double bogey in a four-hole span in his opening nine holes in Friday's second round, Wiebe turned things around by playing the last 10 holes in 3 under to shoot a 67 that left him a 3-under 138 through 36 holes.
So, was the problem more mental or physical, Mark?
"No, it's mental. I made a couple of bonehead moves and I learned from them and stopped making them," he said.
LATE LAPSE: Japan's Kiyoshi Murota had the lead all to himself in the U.S. Senior Open. Then came two troublesome holes.
Murota made bogey and double bogey at Nos. 8 and 9 to finish up his second round Friday with a 69 that left him at 5-under 137.
Through an interpreter, he related what went wrong.
"It's hard to hit it from that deep rough," he said of the bogey.
As for the 6 at the par-4 eighth?
"It's very difficult, very sensitive chipping out there," he said.
He jokingly blamed the media for his late problems.
"I was thinking about I'm going to lead," he said. "And I'm going to have to come over here and you'll interview me. So I got nervous and made bogey and double bogey at the end."
DIVOTS: David Frost was disqualified for choosing to not reload after hitting his drive out of bounds off the ninth tee. He was 5 over at the time and well past the cut line anyway. ... D.A. Weibring aced the 170-yard third with a 6-iron, his second on the Champions Tour to go with four on the PGA Tour. ... Over-50 crowd favorite Tom Watson elected to play at the Greenbrier Classic on the PGA Tour instead of playing with his peers. He shot 75-71--146 in West Virginia and missed the cut by five strokes.

|Salome with the Head of John the Baptist, 16th century
Italian, c.1487/90-1576
Oil on canvas
34 x 29 in. (86.4 x 73.7 cm)
The Norton Simon Foundation

Not on view
This painting is first documented in the 1603 inventory of the prestigious Roman collection of Cardinal Pietro Aldobrandini, alongside another painting of the same subject and by the same artist: Tiziano Vecellio. Both paintings passed by inheritance into the Doria Pamphilij Gallery, but whereas the better version remained in the collection (and still resides there today), the Simon painting was sold by the Doria family in the late eighteenth century. It has been called the best workshop replica of the Doria original. Why two paintings of the same style and subject came to be owned by the same family for almost two hundred years has never been established.
Titian was known to have a large, bustling workshop, where students duplicated a number of his most popular compositions; some paintings were finished or corrected by Titian himself, allowing them to be sold as the work of the master. In this case, at least four versions of the Doria original (which was executed around 1515) are known to have been made.

I arrived at the corner of 53rd and Fifth Avenue at 9:46 a.m. today, 14 minutes before I expected to meet Novak Djokovic at Uniqlo. This was a mistake. I am not used to meeting athletes at retail stores. You do not arrive a mere 14 minutes early if you expect to meet an athlete.
The line sprawled out the store, down 53rd street. I took my place at the end, where a Uniqlo representative told me I was the 152nd person in line. Probably I should have tried harder to go in as a member of the press, reporting on the business proposition that is Novak Djokovic's new sponsorship deal with the Japanese casual-wear emporium. But Patrick Jones from Agentry PR did not get back to me. Screw you, Patrick Jones. It was a public appearance. Here was the public (Update down below in Kinja on the PR matter, if you care).
Back at this end of the line, the public was getting anxious. "He's only going to be here from 10 to 10:30, so I'm scared," one person said to a friend.
Rumors started spreading up and down the line: "Someone got here at 5 a.m.!" "Oh, God."
At 10 a.m., in lieu of Djokovic, there came consent forms for getting our photos taken with Novak. No autographs, the Uniqlo rep distributing the forms told us. No chit-chat.
Who in New York came out to wait for Novak Djokovic at 5 a.m.? He was huge here after his 2007 U.S. Open final; Grace Hightower and Robert De Niro instantly became his no. 1 fans. But the city has been ambivalent about him since. There was that terrible episode in which he pouted his way through a post-court interview in 2008 about something mean Andy Roddick said about him (and was booed off the court). And then in the last two Opens, Djokovic ruthlessly defeated Roger Federer in a pair of five-set semifinals, making New York the only Grand Slam host city that has never seen a Roger versus Rafa final. The crowd was in the Federer tank both years.
But right: This was summer in the city. Deep tans, washed-out jeans, novelty T-shirts, smoking. These were tourists.
"Maybe if I go out the tonight, you can recommend the place?" asked the lady behind me, with a heavy accent.
"I'm from Jersey. I stay in and drink," responded the guy next to her. He was 23.
The line was not moving. According to Twitter, Djokovic was indeed inside. He was apparently talking to Page Six and Women's Wear Daily. He was not taking photos with us.
"We go to this place called Costco," said someone in the line, bouncing me out of my trance.
"How much do you make as a nurse? It must be really difficult making it in the city," said a lady.
"I live in Fort Lee," her conversation partner responded.
At 10:15, the line moved a few inches. Maybe Novak will stay past 10:30, I said to no one in particular. Being line member No. 152 also didn't feel so bad, either. There were at least another 50 people behind me.
"She's dating Skrillex, what would you expect?"
At 10:26, we hadn't moved any more. A Uniqlo rep delivered the inevitable news to my part of the line.
"Guys, sorry, 99.9 percent chance, 99.9 percent chance, 99.9 percent chance you will not get a photo. 99.9 percent."
"Damn it."
I bailed the line and made my way into the store, like a regular customer. There was an oversized photo of Djokovic overhead, but no sign of the actual tennis player. I ran into two scruffy, lean New Yorkers. They'd met Novak.
One of them was named Adam, and he had a septum piercing. His buddy was named Blake. "A year ago I went to see Michelle Branch at the Soho Apple store, I'm obsessed with her and he tolerated me," Adam said. "So when I heard about this, I told him we should definitely go and make it up to him. I don't know who this tennis guy is."
Well, what did it look like meeting him? The three-dimensional Novak?
"He didn't look as attractive as this photo of him," said Adam, gesturing at the picture overhead. "I guess I have to see another photo of him, really. I didn't really get to see him. It was really quick."
"We walked up to him from the side," said Blake. "Yeah, it was really quick."
They'd gotten there at 9 a.m., they said.

Plecos, or more properly, sucker-mouthed catfish, have perhaps the highest number of species of any family of fish in the Amazon basin, with over 780 known to exist in the family Loricariidae, with perhaps a third of them with scientific names. They are by far the largest family of catfish in the world.
Some are extremely common in the aquarium hobby, some rare, exotic and beautiful. Some are so weirdly formed they are so homely the can be considered cute. All have needs in the aquarium and none can thrive on only the algae in a tank.
In this primer I'll give a necessarily brief species list of the fish you are likely to find in shops, plus a few that can be found with a bit of searching and are worthwhile because of their looks.
None of the sucker-mouthed catfish in this list are particularly difficult to keep as long as a few essentials are provided, and all, especially the larger species, are very long-lived.
Now some species.
Perhaps the most common and miss-kept member of Loricariidae is Otocinclus vittatus, of the floating meadows in the Amazon basin.
Topping out at just over an inch, O. vittatus is imported in huge numbers, but few last long in the average aquarium. Though they are hardy when properly acclimated (drip acclimation, three to four cycles), they are rarely kept in schools of more than six fish like they deserve. They live far longer if kept in a group of their fellows, with more than five years not unusual.
They are perfect for the planted aquarium, and since they are accustomed to live plants in their natural environment, Otocinclus do best in them. Large-leaved plants like the big sword plants are a favorite haunt, and no fish will clean the top and bottom of the leaves like Otocinclus can. They will prevent algae from forming on the leaves of slow-growing plants like Anubis and Java fern. Their activities will keep plant-choking debris from settling on fine-leaved plants like Cabomba and Myriophyllum. Between a troupe of Otocinclus and a cadre of algae-eating shrimp, your planted aquarium will be algae free as long as that pair of creatures are in your tank.
They do best in the soft, slightly acid water of planted tanks, but will do fine in pH from 5.5 to 7.5, as long as the water is moderately soft. Temperatures are 70 to 78 degrees, with 75 being optimal.
They are excellent tankmates for schools of smaller tetras or rasboras. Since Otocinclus are so small, larger fish like Angelfish are out. Most dwarf cichlids are OK, especially Apistogrammas, since they are so mild about breeding. More aggressive dwarves like kribs and Convicts are most definitely out.
Though they have trouble with the hard, calcium-rich knots of algae on the glass, a troupe of Otocinclus will clear a green-algae covered tank in a day to a couple weeks, depending on the size of the aquarium. When they are nearly finished with the algae, it's time to feed them. Also, since they are starved on import, it is essential to get them feeding immediately, as Otocinclus drop like flies if not properly fed.
Vegetables are the rule, as the so-called algae wafers are poor fare indeed. Cucumber, Romaine Lettuce and and Zucchini are the big three with them. Cucumber slices can be sunk raw, the Romaine should be crushed so that the inside flesh is visible before clipping it to the side of the tank, and the Zucchini should be blanched until al dente. Any clean, hard or leafy vegetable can be used, so experiment to see what your Otocinclus tribe will take. Iceberg lettuce is useless, nutrition-wise, so don't use it.
Placing the vegetable foods in the same place night after night is a very good idea, as the Otocinclus group will quickly learn where to go for eats. As they do the majority of their foraging at night, place the foods just before lights out. Check them in the morning as it will be obvious if the Otocinclus have been working on the vegetables. Remove any that remains that evening before turning off the lights, as it's highly likely the Otocinclus will continue to feed on the veggies all day, because it takes a lot of greens to keep the little herbivores going.
Green algae is easily cultured on stones in a container that gets indirect sunlight and has an ammonia source, like a group of guppies. The stones can be rotated in and out of the Otocinclus tank as the fish clear them. Home-cultured algae plus the vegetables and your Otocinclus group will live long, healthy lives.
A group of Otocinclus will commonly breed when they are mature in the planted tank if properly fed and kept. If you see tiny single eggs the size of mustard seed all over the glass at one end of the tank, your Otocinclus group has bred. The eggs can be carefully scraped off the glass with a new, sharp double-edged razor blade, catching them as they fall into a brine shrimp net. Breeding tank should have a seasoned sponge filter and be filled with the same aquarium water as the main tank. Tank should be 10 to 20 gallons and bare bottomed. Tint the water with Methylene Blue to discourage fungus.
Eggs should hatch within three days at 76 degrees and it'll take two more days for the fry to be free swimming. Feed them algae covered stones and crushed Spirulina flake. Keep the tank very, very clean and change 50 percent of the water four times a day. The Otocinclus fry should be half grown in six weeks.
A larger, distant cousin of Otocinclus, is Hypoptopoma gulare, which also frequent the floating meadows of the Amazon as well as submerged vegetation in Peru, Columbia and Venezuela.
Topping out at three inches, one MUST drip acclimate this species AT least four cycles, as they are quite delicate after the starvation and stress of shipping. Crushed fresh spinach leaves rubber-banded to stones and placed with the leaf on the substrate, just before lights. out will help your H. gulareget back on their feet.
Well established, however, H. gulare is very hardy. They are also long lived, as the 12 I have were purchased 8 years ago.
Gulare needs somewhat more roughage than their smaller cousins, so add leaf spinach and kale to the menu. A vegetative pellet containing kelp and spirulina will be taken if a few pellets are dropped in at night. Because they are larger, they need appreciably more vegetative food available 24/7 than Otocinclus do. My 12 can polish off a dozen fist-sized algae-covered rocks in an evening.
They are affable fish; perfectly peaceful. Tankmates can be small to larger tetras or rainbow fish. To my experience Angelfish will either leave the gulare group alone, or pester them mercilessly, so use these fish with caution.
A pleasing mix of a brown chocolate in a herring-bone pattern on the back 2/3rds of the fish with a greenish lower area, H. gulare is often called Giant Otocinclus in the trade, though it is of a different Genus all together and not closely related to Otocinclus. Eyes are a brown-golden.
They are an excellent addition to the larger planted aquarium, especially those with large-leaved plants and driftwood, as part of their diet will be the bio-film on the wood. They are also very good cleaners of plant debris.
They do best with a moderate linear current in the tank, as their sloping heads are designed to push them down on the algae they feed on in nature, and will be far more active if you provide it. Also, they need no less than 8 mg/l dissolved Oxygen in their tanks. In a planted tank, that's rarely a problem, but aireation should be employed at night to keep O2 levels high. Gulare do not do well in tanks over 7.4 in pH with moderate hardness; the bright neutral to slightly acid softwater tank is what they enjoy. Temps are 75 to 78 and no higher than 79.
H. gulare is perhaps the most efficient algae eater you can buy, as not much escapes their notice. They won't touch Cyanobacteria, but they will make inroads on black brush and other red algae, and will quickly eliminate diatoms and of course green algae.
They breed like Otocinclus do, but mine didn't start breeding until they were in their third year. The fry aren't difficult to raise if fed and kept as above, but it is even more desirable to breed these fish as they are rarely imported, as they are such good algae eaters and rare in shops.

TORONTO - Ontario's governing Liberals will table their crucial budget on May 1, a high-stakes document that could turn into an election platform if both opposition parties refuse to support it.
"It's going to be forward-thinking and long-term in vision," Finance Minister Charles Sousa said Tuesday.
He appealed to the Progressive Conservatives and New Democrats to support his spending plan, but struck a less than conciliatory tone.
"I'm proud of what we will be delivering on May 1," Sousa said. "And if the opposition decide they want to go against the very initiatives the people of Ontario have asked for, that's their call.
Sousa announced the date at the same time the province's top civil servant, cabinet secretary Peter Wallace, was set to testify about the alleged wiping of hard drives in the premier's office.
The legislative committee is examining the deletion of government emails related to the cancellation of two unpopular gas plants, which the opposition say was done to save Liberal seats in the 2011 election.
Police allege 24 computers may have been scrubbed with the help of former premier Dalton McGuinty's chief of staff, David Livingston, who is under investigation for breach of trust.
The allegations have not been tested in court and Livingston's lawyer has said his client didn't break any laws.
Sousa said the timing of his announcement was coincidental, but both opposition parties called it a blatant attempt to change the channel from the scandal.
The minister was supposed to make the announcement Wednesday morning in the legislature, according to leaked documents the Tories obtained that outline the Liberals' budget rollout plan.
"This is obviously designed to distract from a potentially explosive day at the gas plant hearing," said Tory finance critic Vic Fedeli.
The Conservatives say the scandal is one more reason why Ontario needs an election, but the New Democrats — who have been just as critical of the Liberals — won't say whether they'll keep propping up the government.
NDP house leader Gilles Bisson said they want to see the budget first.
"It's not responsible for us as a party — and I don't think it's responsible for anybody else — to say we're going to do X, Y or Z without seeing what's in it and without really taking a look at what the options are," he said.
The confidence vote on the budget motion could happen as soon as May 8 or as late as June 2, according to the Liberals.
They've been dropping hints in recent days about what the budget will contain.
Premier Kathleen Wynne pledged Monday to make $29 billion available over the next decade for new transit and transportation infrastructure in Ontario.
They plan to allocate $1.3 billion a year in gas taxes and take on more debt to help pay for it, but Wynne won't say how they'll raise the rest of the money until the budget is tabled.
She's ruled out increases to gas taxes, HST or income taxes on middle-income earners, which the government defined in its recent economic outlook as workers making between $25,000 and $75,000 a year.
But the premier was tight lipped on whether those earning more than $75,000 would take a hit to fund transit.
Wynne said the budget will also outline how the province will find the money to fill the $1.3-billion hole in the province's main coffers that pay for public services.
It will be difficult to find the money for transit without new levies, given that the Liberals are already facing an $11.3-billion deficit, lower-than-forecast revenues and weak economic growth over the next 20 years.
She has said that Ontario's shares in General Motors — purchased during the recession — could be sold to build transit, roads and bridges.
Sousa also mused last week about squeezing more money out of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, as well as Crown corporations like Ontario Power Generation and Hydro One.
The Liberals promised in last year's budget to raise money through high-occupancy toll lanes, which would allow motorists to pay to use the HOV lanes that are usually reserved for those who have one or more passengers.
The budget is also expected to re-affirm their intention to create an Ontario pension plan to bolster retirement income if Ottawa keeps refusing to enhance the Canada Pension Plan.

Morningstar announced Monday it has launched Morningstar Annuity Intelligence, a web-based product for evaluating variable annuities. Designed for financial professionals, including broker/dealers, financial advisors, compliance officers and insurance carrier representatives, the database provides real-time data on more than 100,000 annuity subaccounts and 1,950 annuity contracts, according to the Chicago-based company.
The new offering combines Morningstar Annuity Analyzer and the Annuity Intelligence Report to create "an all-in-one source for annuity data and information," according to a company statement. Users now have the capability to search for variable annuity contracts, compare them side-by-side, and then generate "client-friendly, FINRA-reviewed presentations and reports."
"When it comes to purchasing an annuity, every investor has specific, personalized needs, but it can be difficult to compare annuities in a meaningful way," Kevin Loffredi, vice president of insurance solutions for Morningstar, said in a statement. "By combining our two most popular annuity tools into one solution, we've made it easier for financial professionals to make apples-to-apples comparisons between different annuity products and help find the most appropriate annuity for each client."
Morningstar Annuity Intelligence includes a new lifetime income calculator, which allows an advisor to see the amount of guaranteed income an annuity benefit will provide for a client based on different criteria. It includes "plain English" descriptions of complex provisions in annuity riders, annuity fee data, contract titling information, and historical contract data dating back to the 1960s. In addition, it helps compliance officers support their suitability and review process for an annuity purchase, and it enables suitability forms to be automatically populated with contract, benefit and fee information to streamline the transaction process.
The company adds that, as part of Annuity Intelligence, Morningstar offers two add-on capabilities, VA Expense Analyzer and VA Hypothetical Illustrator, which are designed to help provide transparency to advisors and their clients. VA Expense Analyzer helps streamline the compliance and sales disclosure process by conducting suitability and cost analyses to help make sure a recommended annuity is appropriate for a client. It also calculates how long it would take for a client to recover a surrender charge in the event he or she exchanges an annuity contract. VA Hypothetical Illustrator helps support client proposals by analyzing variable annuity performance as a standalone investment, in comparison with competing products or benchmarks, or within the context of a complete portfolio.
Current Morningstar Annuity Analyzer and Annuity Intelligence Report clients will be migrated to the new Annuity Intelligence over the next 12 to 18 months, based on each client's individual requirements. Morningstar Annuity Intelligence is available on a site-license basis to broker/dealers, institutions, and other financial firms. Subscribers who also use Morningstar Advisor Workstation will be able to link to the new tool directly through Advisor Workstation later this year.

I thought that Tom Bourdon's photograph of a sadhu offering water to the sun on the banks of the Ganges in Varanasi would be a perfect choice to end my blog posts for 2009. It projects the optimism we ought to feel today while we are at the cusp of welcoming a brand new year.
Tom Bourdon is UK born, and is an award winning international travel photographer who specializes in photographing religious and cultural festivals/celebrations across the globe. To my knowledge, he's one of the very few who specialize in documenting festivals, and if I'm not mistaken he might be traveling to the Kumbh Mela this year in Haridwar. If he does, you can bet he'll have splendid images to show.
Happy New Year to all my readers...and looking forward to see you again next year!

Leafs Acquire Matt Frattin For Jerry D'Amigoby Staff Writer / Toronto Maple Leafs
David Nonis, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, announced Tuesday the hockey club has acquired forward Matt Frattin from the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for forward Jerry D'Amigo and a conditional seventh round draft pick in the 2015 Entry Draft.
Frattin, 26, returns to Toronto after previously playing for the Maple Leafs from 2010-11 to 2012-13. In 82 career games with the Blue and White, the 6-0, 200-pound forward registered 28 points on 15 goals and 13 assists, along with 29 penalty minutes. He split last season between the Los Angeles Kings and the Blue Jackets during which he played 44 games collecting seven points (two goals, five assists) and 11 penalty minutes. Los Angeles acquired Frattin from Toronto on June 23, 2013 in a trade that saw goaltender Jonathan Bernier obtained by the Maple Leafs. He was originally Toronto's second choice, selected 99th overall, in the 2007 Entry Draft.
D'Amigo played 22 games for the Maple Leafs in 2013-14 and earned one goal and two assists. He spent most of the past four seasons with the AHL's Toronto Marlies and was chosen 158th overall by the Maple Leafs in the 2009 Entry Draft.

Glendale Community CollegeHome Menu
In this current budgetary climate, the California Community College System is receiving less money from Sacramento and as a result we are having to cut classes. The Visual and Performing Arts Division is especially vulnerable because we are considered non-essential for students who are not majoring in this discipline, even though it has been proven that students who participate in the Arts become more well-rounded, and do better in their other classes. We are having to depend more and more on donations from generous patrons such as yourself.
The Music Department has created a fund through the Glendale College Foundation to accept your tax-deductable donation. It is called the GCC Music Department Fund and is "for the support, development, and enhancement of The Glendale College Music Department."
You can donate online using your credit card!
Be sure to specify that you want your donation to go to the "GCC Music Department Fund" in the box provided under "Gift Information." All donations donations are tax-deductable, and will be acknowledged and greatly appreciated. If you would like to speak to someone in the Foundation Office, you may call (818) 551-5201.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – When cancer strikes, families rally around their loved one. For Jalon McCutcheon the rally around his aunt was one that's not heard of often.
When McCutcheon learned his aunt Lynette Boone was diagnosed with breast cancer on Dec. 9 the disease immediately became real.
"I reacted how I think everybody else would've reacted I was messed up about it. She's one of my closest aunts, she's been there for me as long as I can remember," said McCutcheon. "Then I thought about it and I knew everything would be alright cause she has a lot of faith. She even told us everything was going to be ok and it would all be alright. You can't do anything more than to be supportive."
At times his aunt's spirit during the ordeal uplifts McCutcheon when he gets down about the situation.
"It's lifting, you see her and she's supposed to be down and out and she's still acting like there's nothing wrong," McCutcheon said. "She's getting up and moving around even when we want her to be still and relax. She still wants to do everything and get up and go to the meets."
For McCutcheon and his family they looked for a way to raise support for their beloved aunt.
"People normally cut their hair off to support awareness but (the men of the family) are just going to grow it out until the cancer is completely gone," McCutcheon said of his plan. "It was something we just came up with, it was a snap decision."
Although McCutcheon having hair has been a bit more of a challenge than he expected.
"It's been a while since I've had hair," said the Flying Tiger. "I've gone so long without hair, sometimes I get out of the shower and say 'I can't go outside like this' so it takes a little longer to dry."
At the end of the day it's all worth it for McCutcheon and his family.

Arsenal maestro Santi Cazorla rescued Arsene Wenger from another disappointing result with a last-gasp winner against a valiant Aston Villa.
Cazorla opened the scoring in the sixth minute, but Villa came back strongly and equalised through Andreas Weimann after the break.
Arsenal threw everything at Paul Lambert's man, but they could not find a way past Brad Guzan until Cazorla found the net with five minutes remaining - saving his manager from another ear-bashing from the supporters who have started to doubt whether the Frenchman is the right man to lead the club forward.
Many had questioned whether Wenger had lost the plot this week with a bizarre press conference rant sandwiched in between two disappointing defeats to Blackburn and Bayern Munich.
Some of those doubters will not have been convinced by this performance. Wenger's men were often sloppy in possession, they looked edgy at the back and their propensity to want to walk the ball in to the net caused a huge amount of frustration among the home crowd at a sparsely populated Emirates Stadium.
Whatever criticisms are aimed at Wenger - whether it be his match tactics or his transfer policy - there is no doubt that he does possess players who can turn the game with a bit of magic. Cazorla is certainly of them.
The Spaniard, who now has 11 goals for the club, drifted in and out of the game, but he took his two strikes brilliantly.
The win puts pressure on Tottenham, who now have a one-point advantage over their rivals ahead of their game at West Ham on Monday.
Villa remain one point above the relegation zone, and on this evidence, they certainly have the players to stay up.
Watched by owner Stan Kroenke, making a rare visit to north London, Arsenal started well.
Jack Wilshere capitalised on a poor backpass and raced at goal, but the midfielder fired straight at Brad Guzan.
Cazorla then lifted the quiet atmosphere inside the Emirates with Arsenal's opener in the sixth minute.
Nathan Baker blocked Cazorla's initial shot after some good work by Wilshere, but the Spaniard made no mistake with his second effort, slotting past Guzan with a beautiful curling effort.
Urged on by an animated Lambert from the touchline, Villa looked to hit straight back. Charles N'Zogbia raced down the right past Thomas Vermaelen and pulled the ball back for Gabriel Agbonlahor but Wojciech Szczesny saved.
N'Zogbia cantered down the flank moments later, but Agbonlahor was unable to keep up with him and he arrived just too late to tap the Frenchman's cross in.
Weimann was the next man to charge at the Gunners defence. He laid the ball off to N'Zogbia, but Szczesny parried well before Thomas Vermaelen hooked the ball clear.
Villa's attacks led to a nervous atmosphere inside the Emirates, but Theo Walcott brought them to the edge of their seats with a teasing curler that flew inches over Guzan's goal.
Villa continued to pour forward, however. Matt Lowton nutmegged Abou Diaby and entered the Arsenal box, but Vermaelen came to the rescue with a last-gasp tackle. Lowton caught the Belgian in his follow-through and was booked for the foul. Diaby then entered the book for a clumsy challenge on N'Zogbia.
Arsenal's passing was often sloppy and the home fans became annoyed at the Gunners' attempts to pass the ball in to the net.
The hosts did produce an impressive move just before the break, though, with Cazorla finding Olivier Giroud, but Guzan was equal to the Frenchman's effort.
Arsenal started to dominate the game again after the break, but again, they were reluctant to shoot on goal, much to the annoyance of the home crowd.
With Arsenal throwing so many players forward, they were left vulnerable at the back.
Weimann went on another rampaging counter down the right and crossed for Agbonlahor, but the forward headed wide.
Wenger was forced into a change just after the hour when Diaby hobbled off with another injury. Aaron Ramsey came on in his place.
Villa then stunned the home side by equalising. Carl Jenkinson failed to clear a long punt down field, the ball made its way to Weimann and he went on a blistering 40-yard run before beating Szczesny with a weak shot.
Wenger rose from his bench and cast a disappointed glare at his team. His troubles nearly worsened soon after when Christian Benteke found space at the back post but Per Mertesacker got in front of the Belgian before he could head on goal.
Wenger gambled, throwing Lukas Podolski on for Jenkinson, and Arsenal pressured the visitors' box.
Guzan saved brilliantly to deny Giroud from point-blank range as Arsenal continued to pile forward.
They got their reward five minutes from time when Nacho Monreal swung the ball into the box and Cazorla converted, much to the relief of Wenger and the home fans.

Very interesting. The first link on the page takes you to FamilySearch Fresh, a Facebook App. If you keep clicking you get to a screen that says that they are "Building a Book from your Facebook Account." Yes, you sit there and wait and it builds a book! OK, so what can they get out of my Facebook Account? It took a while but it was supposedly building my family tree. Well, my Facebook Family Tree is pretty sparse since I don't have a lot in Facebook. But, depending on what you have put into Facebook, you get a nice display of that info.
Some of the links are not yet functional but it will take some time to get going, I guess.

Top 3 Patient Complaints Regarding Doctor's Offices
ldowning October 28th, 2013
As the healthcare industry changes, doctors and medical practitioners have to stay on top of their game in regards to patient service and best practices. Not only do they have to stay abreast of all medical discoveries and process changes, but they have to constantly look at the way their practice treats its patients to make sure they are providing the best service. With more and more health practices popping up, potential patients have plenty of choices. Here are the top complaints people have about their doctor's office.
My Doctor Thinks His Time is More Valuable Than Mine
This is the top complaint across the board. Whether patients are talking about their primary care physician or their dentist, nothing frustrates people more than showing up 15-30 minutes prior to their appointment only to wait an hour or more to be seen. Many large practices allot only 15 minutes for appointment, which should open the market up for smaller practices, but the ins and outs of running a practice limit a doctor's time as well. That's why a service like Angela can help you serve your patients. You and your staff spend less time on administrative duties so you can spend more time with your patients.
Poor Communication
Patients complain about doctors who take a long time to call with test results, or practices who don't have staff available after hours to schedule appointments. While Angela doesn't deliver test results, she takes care of the scheduling so that the doctor can spend more time following up with patients.
Rude or Disconnected Staff
Unfortunately, human error can impact even the service your patients receive when they call your practice. Studies show that medical employees who have to spend time with scheduling, cancellations and no shows have less tolerance for patients who call with questions or patients who are physically in the office. Angela takes the scheduling, cancellation and no show pressure off your practice staff so that workers have more time, and hopefully more patience to deliver the service people really want.

Sick Sinus Syndrome
Definition: Sick sinus syndrome — also known as sinus node disease or sinus node dysfunction — is the name for a group of heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias) in which the sinus node — the heart's natural pacemaker — doesn't work properly. The sinus node is an area of specialized cells in the upper right chamber of the heart that controls the rhythm of your heart. Normally, the sinus node produces a steady pace of regular electrical impulses. In sick sinus syndrome, these signals are abnormally paced.
Patients with sick sinus syndrome feels slower than normal pulse (bradycardia) , Fatigue , Dizziness or lightheadedness , Fainting or near fainting , Shortness of breath Chest pains , A sensation of rapid, fluttering heartbeats (palpitations)
Out of the estimated population 3,969,5582 Right Diagnosis conducted a survey and concludes that the extrapolated incidence of Sick sinus syndrome patients was found to be 210,386 during the year 2014

Level-5's newest title, Guild01, is four games in one. Each of the four was made by a famous game creator (or in one case a comedian) and are completely unrelated in every way.
The first is Liberation Girl (Kaiho Shojou), a 3D shooter designed by Suda51 that falls along the same lines of Kid Icarus Uprising. The second is a rhythm-based RPG called Omasse's Rental Weapon Shop (Rental Bukiya de Omasse) where you make and sell weapons to questing adventurers. The third title is Aero Porter — a puzzle game where you must sort the bags in an airport and get them on their correct flights. The final title is an RPG by the creator of Final Fantasy Tactics and Vagrant story called Crimson Shroud which is built like you are playing a table top RPG.
To see each of these four games in action, check out the video above.
Guild01 was released on May 31, 2012, in Japan. There is currently no word on a Western release. Stay tuned to Kotaku East for the full import preview later this week.

Hannon, an associate director at the University of Minnesota Law Library, was responsible for the content of the site, commentaries on Darrow's letters and other primary sources, and the acquisition of these unique materials. In addition to trial transcripts, articles, books, and a large photo archive, sources in this searchable database include 806 personal letters to and from Darrow, representing both family members and the influential and famous figures of his age. Here you will find every published state and federal case where Darrow or his law firm are listed as counsel or which quote or refer to him. Other sources document Darrow's work on boards and causes. Anyone interested in Clarence Darrow, famous trials, or the development of American law should find much of interest here.

Volunteer & Intern in Africa with Art in Tanzania
ART IN TANZANIA (AIT) is a *non-governmental organization (NGO) registered in Tanzania, Zanzibar, and as indipendent entity in Finland. The organization launched in 2001 supporting local artists who did not have the resources to develop their talents.
Since then, the organization has grown and now runs more than 300 volunteer and internship placements in Tanzania including a record label called Mzuka Records, and the Fiesta Magazine, a yearly magazine that targets Tanzanian youth.
ART IN TANZANIA welcomes volunteers and interns to participate in community projects and also organizes adventure programs such as safaris, historical tours and climbs to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro! Alumni, volunteers, interns and their families are welcome to participate in our safari and tourism programs. When you book your trip through AIT, you will have the experience of a lifetime, all while providing support the local Tanzania community.
ART IN TANZANIA is part of the Children's Agenda Tanzania Program, and volunteers and interns are needed to assist us in the program management and implementation with the partners as UNICEF, Save the Children, SOS International among others.
AIT alumni include volunteers and interns from all over the world. Volunteer and intern projects are in the fields of Education (all levels), Social Work, Medical & Health practice, Social Media, Arts & Music, Sports, and HIV/AIDS Awareness.
ART IN TANZANIA volunteers and interns are in Dar es Salaam, Moshi in Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar. There are around 600 to 1,000 volunteers and interns arriving annually. AIT's support team includes 70 staff members, both expatriates, and local officials.
Our Mission Statement
To promote the development of the most vulnerable communities in Africa developing partnerships with international NGOs, Universities and Corporate sector.
Our Vision
Self-sustainable operations are the only way to help vulnerable societies.
*A non-governmental organization (NGO) is an organization that is not part of a government and was not founded by states. NGOs are usually non-profit organizations that gain a portion or all of funding from private sources. The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement are the world's largest group of humanitarian NGOs.
Art in Tanzania gets all its funding from volunteers, interns, and private donations. Funding supports the organization's long-term projects, which have included the building of the Bagamoyo Youth Centre, Mandela HIV/Aids Clinic and nursery, and primary schools in Maasai Land.
