Two months after a jury found UVA grad Matthew Hamilton negligent in a civil case that shed light on date rape at UVA, a judge has ruled that the $150,000 award will stand.
"The case was extremely well tried by both sides," said Charlottesville Circuit Court Judge Edward Hogshire as he denied Hamilton's motions to strike the verdict. "The verdict," he added, "was not excessive under the circumstances."
For three consecutive days beginning August 29, a seven-person jury listened to testimony regarding the night of December 8, 2001, when Annie Hylton, then an 18-year-old first-year at UVA, claimed she was date raped by Hamilton, a 21-year-old third-year. Hylton had sued Hamilton for $1.5 million after the Commonwealth's Attorney declined to press criminal charges against him.
Both Hylton and Hamilton agree they had played drinking games at several points during the evening, but they disagreed on the quantity of alcohol Hylton had consumed. What was not in question: by midnight, Hylton fell ill and vomited in a fraternity house bathroom for what some witnesses estimated was at least an hour.
"She was an energetic drunk," testified Hamilton's fraternity brother Ben Decker, recalling a tipsy Hylton joking with people in the room.
Hylton, however, claimed Hamilton had drugged her, citing the fact she hadn't had enough to drink to "black out."
Her friends and several expert witnesses testified that she had suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder since the incident, and Hylton herself confessed to considering suicide in the aftermath of the alleged assault.
Following the verdict, members of the jury explained they didn't believe Hamilton had drugged Hylton, but rather felt he was negligent in having sex with someone who he should have known was too intoxicated to give consent.
"He should have just let her lie in the bed and go to sleep," juror Kim Henderson said several days after the trial.
In early September, Juror Gregg John said the jury believed that both Hamilton and Hylton were negligent that night, but that since Hamilton was "older and more experienced with alcohol," he should be held to a "slightly higher standard."
Hogshire's decision to allow the award to stand is good news for Hylton, says her attorney Steven Rosenfield.
"We're pleased that this phase is over," he says. "It's awfully satisfying to have a judgment."
Hamilton's attorney, Richmond-based Doug Winegardner, says he and Hamilton now must consider whether to petition the Virginia Supreme Court to hear an appeal.
"We continue to believe that Mr. Hamilton was innocent," he says, "and that the jury understood that despite their verdict."
Rosenfield says he'll be ready for whatever comes next.
"We're anticipating dealing with an appeal if it comes," he says.
Annie Hylton's quest to get her case in front of a jury was the subject of the Hook's August 25 cover story.

waiver(redirected from on waivers)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Idioms, Encyclopedia.
A statement of the voluntary surrender of a right. For example, suppose a company provides customers a service that might be dangerous, such as bungee jumping. The company may require customers to sign a waiver relinquishing the right to sue the company for negligence if a problem occurs. This reduces the company's risk in the conduct of its business.

I'm new here, and I have a few questions that have arisen from one of the other threads. I'm particularly interested in how this classical forum works...
Okay, I get that bitThe Abhidhamma and Classical Theravada sub-forums are specialized venues for the discussion of the Abhidhamma and the classical Mahavihara understanding of the Dhamma. Within these forums the Pali Tipitaka and its commentaries are for discussion purposes treated as authoritative. These forums are for the benefit of those members who wish to develop a deeper understanding of these texts and are not for the challenging of the Abhidhamma and/or Theravada commentarial literature.
What does "an author representative of the Classical point-of-view" mean? I've never encountered this concept before. In the academic community there is even a growing tendency to avoid essentialist discussion of "Theravada" as some doubt the assumed continuinty and community between the vastly different extant sub-Theravadas and the Sthaviravada of yore. So which authors fit this point of view and who decides what orthodox and what's unorthodox? Moderators I guess? And if so what are the moderators agendas? (I don't mean that in a sinister way, I just mean moderators presumably have opinions and understandings of their own.)Posts should also include support from a reference or a citation (Tipitaka, commentarial, or from a later work from an author representative of the Classical point-of-view).
So I'm assuming that "personal opinions and conjecture" etc are okay if supported with the reference to the Pali Canon or an author representative of the Classical point-of-view?Posts that contain personal opinions and conjecture, points of view arrived at from meditative experiences, conversations with devas, blind faith in the supreme veracity of one's own teacher's point of view etc. are all regarded as off-topic, and as such, will be subject to moderator review and/or removal.
In advance,

The search for waste-to-energy technology in Metro Vancouver just got bigger.
Metro staff will deliver a report next month outlining a revised procurement process for one or more waste-to-energy facilities capable of processing at least 370,000 tonnes of trash per year.
Paul Henderson, the region's manager of solid waste, said Wednesday that changes to the procurement process won't affect the overall waste-to-energy timeline, which calls for a short-list of proponents and sites by mid-2014, the start of construction in 2016, and operations beginning in 2018.
"Not at all," he assured in an interview.
Metro's regional board voted on Friday to refer the issue back to staff and the zero-waste committee to ensure technologies that do not have established operating facilities not be automatically excluded from the process.
A staff report on the waste-to-energy procurement process had recommended proponents be judged on "reference facilities" and "proven experience" in processing municipal solid waste.
Henderson said a revised report incorporating the board's views will go to the zero-waste committee at its Oct. 11 meeting, with clarification of the requirements for proponents to show they are capable of the job.
Incineration, which is one form of waste-to-energy technology, has been a controversial topic for years.
Other options include gasification, which converts processed waste into a synthesis gas using heat in an air-starved chamber, and mechanical biological treatment, which can involve composting or anaerobic digestion.
"Right now, there is uncertainty," Henderson said. "The range of technologies runs the full gamut."
Burnaby's incinerator, which is owned by the city but run by a private company, produces enough electricity to power 17,000 homes on the BC Hydro grid.

Students Serve Those in Need in the Nation's Capital on Spring Break
DuBOIS – For this year's spring break, 20 Penn State students spent seven days in Washington D.C. learning about the issues that surround homelessness and poverty in the United States, and volunteering to help those who are homeless. The students had the opportunity to meet many homeless people on their service trip, putting faces with the issue.
Students volunteered at Capitol Area Food Bank where they sorted canned goods that are distributed to 700 area organizations, and at D.C. Central Kitchen, which serves 4,500 meals a day to local food shelters.
Marly Doty, assistant director of Student Affairs at Penn State DuBois, and Ken Nellis, campus athletic coordinator, accompanied students on the trip. Doty said, "I'm so proud of the Penn State students that I had the privilege of leading to DC. They are all incredible and I have a renewed faith in our country's future because of their leadership and determination."
"Interacting with the homeless and learning their story had the biggest impact on me," said student Evan Aravich. "I feel that homelessness is something that is commonly talked about but not completely understood. Looking back, I now have a more complete understanding of how homelessness affects the individuals going through it."
Students prepare hygiene bags to distribute to homeless people in D.C. parks. Left to right are Dylan Pearce, Chase Lyle, Justina Powers , Evan Aravich, and Cristal Colgan.

I found a RAM module on e-bay.com as "DDR333 PC2700 DDR DRAM PC MEMORY 1GB" what does this say about the module? All help is greatly appreciated.
DDR-Short for Double Data Rate-Synchronous DRAM, a type of SDRAM that supports data transfers on both edges of each clock cycle (the rising and falling edges), effectively doubling the memory chip's data throughput. DDR-SDRAM also consumes less power, which makes it well-suited to notebook computers. PC2700 Memory runs on a 333MHz bus speed.
-- Found on a vendors site.
For more information, see:
\"Those of us that had been up all night were in no mood for coffee and donuts, we wanted strong drink.\"

I found a RAM module on e-bay.com........... what does this say about the module?
As a rough guide it would be for single core processor machines. It was replaced by DDR(1)400.
I have several machines that use it, and it may be useful if you have one of the earlier, alleged, 400 machines. Their FSB is only 333MHz and only the North and South bridges communicate at 400. try putting all 400 RAM in them and they become as unstable as hell (and I don't give a **** what Linux distro you use) they generally only support DDR400 in the first slot (slot 0 nearest the CPU). The rest has to be PC2700/DDR333, and that is the speed your system will be running at.
You need to be a bit careful with RAM strips of that era, as some MoBos wouldn't support more than 512MB per slot. Remember, we are going back into the realms of Windows 2000 and XP, neither of which needed a lot of RAM for most purposes. Back then I would build with 1GB, and it was perfectly adequate.
OK it is probably much more expensive than modern DDR2 RAM these days, but who wants it?

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- With the lighting of the Naval Academy's 22nd annual Giving Tree Nov. 27, the midshipmen of 6th Company brighten more than just the Bancroft Hall rotunda.
Hundreds of local children in need will receive unexpected gifts this year thanks to the Giving Tree campaign.
The midshipmen, aided by members of the academy's Class of 2000, decorated the tree with more than 900 paper angels provided by the Salvation Army. Each angel bears the name and gender of a local child and a suggested gift for each. Naval Academy midshipmen, faculty and staff choose an ornament, purchase a gift for the child represented on the ornament and leave it unwrapped under the tree.
Suggested presents range from dolls, action figures and soccer balls to bicycles and electronics. The paper ornaments also include each child's pants, shirt and shoe size.
The drive ends Dec. 10, when representatives from the Salvation Army will collect the gifts, wrap them, and deliver them to the intended children in time for Christmas. Last year the Naval Academy donated an estimated $25,000 in holiday gifts.
"This community is always giving to the Brigade of Midshipman. This is one way that we can give back, and it's a way that impacts everyone," said Midshipman 1st Class Ricky Rodriguez, a 6th Company midshipmen who volunteered to coordinate this year's tree lighting ceremony.
"I wanted to be a part of making a difference in the community and making children happy on Christmas morning," he said.
In giving back to the community, Rodriguez says he and his fellow midshipmen also receive a lot in return.
"It has a great impact on the brigade as well as the community," he said. "We're shining a light to help make a difference for these children."

« K-12 Policy Warfare in Indiana Persists With Leak of New Group's Agenda | Main | PISA Shows U.S. 'Standing Still' in Education, Says Ed. Dept. Official »
Okla. Governor to Feds: Stay Away From Our (Common Core) Standards
Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin issued an executive order Dec. 4 that the Republican governor said will shield the state from Washington overreach into its public schools, even as the state implements new, "more challenging" standards, also known as the Common Core State Standards.
Oklahoma becomes the latest state where a governor has officially announced through an executive order that he or she won't tolerate federal intrusion into classrooms through the common core, and asserts the supremacy of the state in making decisions about standards. Other Republican governors to take this path include Gov. Terry Branstad of Iowa, Gov. Paul LePage of Maine, and Gov. Jan Brewer of Arizona.
Brewer actually specified that the name of the standards would be changed through her executive order to "Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards." Only Fallin's executive order, in fact, references the common core by name at all.
The other key point to make is that this sort of executive order does not mean that a state is repealing the common core. These executive orders come on the heels of concerns among some education activists and parents that the common core is actually a federal initiative designed to strip power over K-12 policy away from states. The common core has been adopted by 46 states and the District of Columbia.
Here's how Fallin describes what she's doing through her executive order: "The executive order I signed today makes it clear that neither the Obama Administration nor any subsequent administration will have a hand in developing the Oklahoma Academic Standards. No data will be collected that jeopardizes the privacy of our children. Finally, these standards will not jeopardize the right of every parent to home school their children and educate them as they see fit."

The final season of "30 Rock," which begins Thursday night, will last only 13 episodes, which seems oddly appropriate for a show that runs on fast-forward.
"30 Rock," rarely stops for a breath, forget about a coffee break – even if Liz Lemon is prone to binging on Sabor de Soledad chips (let the false pregnancy results the cheesy snack causes be damned). As we've noted, we're not as sad about the show's impending end as much as happily amazed that a sitcom with rapid-fire banter out of "His Girl Friday" and a "Mary-Tyler-Moore-Show"-on-speed approach has barreled through six seasons with plenty of steam left for a grand finale.
Slowing down to think about "30 Rock" is probably folly when assessing a show that never stopped long enough to make the mistake of taking itself too seriously – or seriously at all. But we'll pause to observe that in its six years – covering one appearance by Leap Day William – "30 Rock" pulled off the rare feat of making up for a general lack of character development by giving us some great characters.
Alec Baldwin, as blustery boss Jack Donaghy, fulfilled the potential as a comic actor he showed in his many hosting stints on "Saturday Night Live." Tracy Morgan oozed alternately low-and-high-energy comic absurdity as man-child comedic force Tracy Jordan. Jane Krakowski's ego-driven delusion case Jenna Maroney emerged as the funniest self-awareness-free sitcom figure since Steve Carell's Michael Scott of "The Office," another NBC Thursday night comedy staple headed for a series finale.
The nominal star of a show packed with them, of course, is Tina Fey, who put together the best sitcom of any former "SNL" player – perhaps because "30 Rock" is the primetime comedy closest in pace and spirit to NBC's long-running late-night hit. Fey learned on "SNL" to keep things fast, funny and fresh. The one time "30 Rock" repeated itself – with a live broadcast – the second go proved better than the fine first offering 18 months earlier.
The one semi-serious thread throughout the series – Liz's on-and-off desire for a child – appears set to be woven into a baby blanket this season. While introducing a kid is often a sign of a show on the way out, well, it is the last season for "30 Rock." Plus, we can expect any Liz Lemon-generated baby talk to be more snappy than sappy. We'll see if she can keep away from the Sabor de Soledad chips long enough to get a true reading on her home pregnancy test.
So enjoy "30 Rock" while you can – it will be over before you know it. In the meantime, check out a preview of the season premiere, appropriately titled, "The Beginning of the End":

Top contenders fight to stay in Egypt election
Yasmine Saleh and Dina Zayed | Reuters
CAIRO (Reuters) – Three top contenders for Egypt's presidency were scrambling to stay in the election race on Sunday after the authorities disqualified them on technical grounds, prompting one to say that a "major crisis" threatened the landmark vote.
The election is seen as the last step to democracy after more than a year of unstable army rule since Hosni Mubarak was overthrown by a street revolt. The generals are due to hand power to the new president by July 1 but the latest drama saw new accusations they were trying to prolong their influence.
Mubarak's former spy chief Omar Suleiman drew an outcry from opponents of the old regime when he entered the race last week, only to be told late on Saturday that he had failed to secure enough signatures in one province to run.
Two leading Islamist candidates were also disqualified, one because he has a criminal record – dating from what was widely seen as a political trial under Mubarak – and the other because his mother had taken U.S. citizenship, state media said.
All three have 48 hours to appeal to the state election committeeagainst their exclusion. If their elimination is confirmed, it would redraw the electoral map just weeks before the vote gets under way in May.
"We will not give up our right to enter the presidential race," said Murad Muhammed Ali, campaign manager for the Muslim Brotherhood's Khairat al-Shater, one of the three.
"There is an attempt by the old Mubarak regime to hijack the last stage of this transitional period and reproduce the old system of governance."
The disqualifications add to the drama of a transition marked by spasms of violence and bitter political rivalries between Islamists, secular-minded reformists and remnants of the Mubarak order.
Shater, who became an immediate frontrunner after joining the election race in late March, was disqualified due to past criminal convictions. Brotherhood members were often jailed for their political activities under Mubarak, who excluded the movement from formal politics.
Anticipating Shater's disqualification, the Brotherhood, which now dominates parliament following free elections held in the wake of Mubarak's removal, had nominated Mohamed Mursi, head of its political party, as a reserve candidate.
A lawyer for Salafi preacher Hazem Salah Abu Ismail, the most hardline of the various Islamists running for the post, said there would be a "a major crisis" now that his client was barred from the race.
On Friday, his supporters besieged the headquarters of the election commission, forcing it to evacuate the premises and suspend its work. Abu Ismail said the accusation that his mother held U.S. citizenship was fabricated by his political opponents.
"The presidential committee has violated all the rules of law," Abu Ismail said in remarks published on his Facebook page. "If the official decision is to violate the constitution, they should be able to deal with the consequences."
Military police and state security were guarding the headquarters of the election committee in Cairo on Sunday, state media reported.
Farouk Sultan, head of the presidential election commission, told Reuters a total of 10 of the 23 candidates had been disqualified.
Frontrunners still in the race include Amr Moussa, a former Arab League Secretary General and Egyptian foreign minister, and Abdul Moneim Abol Fotouh, who was expelled from the Brotherhood last year when he mounted his own presidential campaign.
In an interview with Reuters on Saturday, before his exclusion was announced, Suleiman said the domination of politics by the Brotherhood would hold the country back. But he said if he became president, the party could serve in his government and would be a vital part of Egyptian political life.
Suleiman, 74, said he was running for office in response to public demands for a counterweight to Islamist influence.
"This is why they sought me, as a balance between Islamists and civilian forces," said Suleiman.
He describes himself as a devout Muslim but said that Egyptians fear their country is being turned into a theocracy.
The Brotherhood, in addition to dominating parliament, chairs an assembly that was formed to write a new constitution before a court suspended its activities last week. Liberal groups had walked out of the assembly, saying it failed to reflect Egypt's diversity.
"Many people felt that the state is going to the Muslim Brotherhood – in parliament, in government and now the presidency," Suleiman said, while conceding that the Brotherhood was "a very important segment of Egyptian society."

Best of Honolulu - Entertainment
Best Open Mic: FIRST THURSDAYS POETRY SLAM AT THE HAWAIIAN HUT
Hawai'i's biggest, best open-mic event is the monthly First Thursdays poetry slam at the Hawaiian Hut. It's almost 3 years old now, and draws standing-room-only crowds of more than 600. Believe it or not, it's the largest registered poetry slam in the world. "We've created a really awesome community out here," says founder Kealoha. "People come to listen, then they write and perform, and it just builds." Every First Thursday is different–painters create art onstage, Mainland musicians and poets drop in to perform–but the competitive aspect gives the event a reliable spice. In February, a talented roster of poets got their lunches taken by 13-year-old up-and-comer Ittai Wong, who rocked the crowd with a passionate "Letter to Poetry." Every first Thursday of the month, Hawaiian Hut, Ala Moana Hotel, www.hawaiislam.com.
Best Cocktails: LEWERS LOUNGE
"Sometimes the secret to a great drink is simplicity," reads the menu at Lewers Lounge, "but simple does not mean easy."
|photo: Monte Costa
Dale DeGroff, the best-known mixologist in the United States and author of The Craft of the Cocktail, has gotten Honolulu shaking, stirring and lighting little citrus peels aflame. Hired by the Halekulani to make over the Lewers Lounge, DeGroff transformed the lounge into what now could be a personal ad: curvy, copper-colored, jazz loving and understated. Cocktails, such as the Pink Elephant or James Bond Martini, run $8.50 to $12; a menu of light food is also available. It's a little pricey for Hawai'i, but the subtle flavors, unexpected fusions and iconoclastic concoctions, all prepared by DeGroff-trained staff, are worth it.
"The Lewers Lounge has ruined all the other bars for me," moans cocktail enthusiast Doug Richardson. "You have to have cocktails here or just make them at home. With some places, you want to climb behind the bar and say no, no, no–you do it like this." Halekulani, 2199 Kalia Road, 931-5040.
Best Beer Menu: BAR 35
Best check your Heineken habit at the door, once you get to Bar 35. This swank, New York-style lounge–one of the reasons why it's now hip to hang out on Hotel Street–carries 120 beers from all over the world. Among customers' most popular picks: Chimay, a Belgian beer made by Trappist monks, and Red Stripe, which is brewed in Jamaica. "I want people to enjoy beer," says owner Dave Stewart. "Drinking it should be like tasting wine." Happy hour (Monday through Friday, 4 to 8 p.m.) is the best time for beer-o-philes to get their fill–any 12-ounce bottle is $3. 35 N. Hotel St., 537-3535. www.bar35hawaii.com.
Best Free Wine Tasting: HASR
|photos: Karin Kovalsky
You can swirl, sniff, sip and spit for zip, zero, zilch at HASR's (Highly Allocated Spoiled Rotten) tastings on Tuesdays and Fridays from 5 to 7 p.m. On a recent Friday, aspiring oenophiles gathered around the small serving bar for a lesson on Spanish wines, conducted by Walter Calinuan, a part-time employee, full-time wine connoisseur whose down-to-earth approach is contagious and refreshing. A footnote: Don't expect full-glass pours (it is free, after all); in fact, don't expect to sit down (there are no chairs or tables). What you can expect, however, is to sip anywhere from six to a dozen or so quite tasty wines in a range of price points (the cheapest was $5; most expensive, $45). 31 N. Pauahi St., 1B, 535-WINE.
Best Local Brewery: KONA BREWING CO.
We tried to find the best beer brewed in Hawai'i, and while we couldn't get a consensus among the local beer aficionados we called, we did notice a pattern in their responses. Jonathan Schwalbenitz of Murphy's Bar & Grill, whom our readers voted "Best Bartender" in our 2004 Hale 'Aina Awards, raved about the Hula Hefeweizen at Kona Brewing Co. George O'Hanlon, owner of The Liquor Collection in Ward Warehouse, praised the Kona Coffee Stout at Kona Brewing Co. And it just so happens that a certain local brewery's Black Sand Porter earned a gold medal at the 2005 Great American Beer Festival, the nation's largest beer competition. Yup. It's Kona Brewing Co.
|photo: courtesy of Kona Brewing Co.
Since opening in 1995, Kona Brewing has become the largest brewery in the state, expanding its retail distribution to the Mainland and Japan. While bottles of its lighter brews are sold in most Hawai'i supermarkets, beer buffs get most excited about the stuff they can get only on tap at Kona Brewing's two brewpubs.
"We have a broad, diverse selection of beer styles, from our light, thirst-quenching Duke's Blonde Ale to our Kona Coffee Stout," says Rich Tucciarone, director of brewery operations. Its biggest brewpub seller? The Castaway India Pale Ale. Hawai'i Kai: Koko Marina Center, 7192 Kalaniana'ole Highway, Building I, 394-5662. Kailua-Kona: 75-5629 Kuakini Highway, (808) 334-1133. www.konabrewingcompany.com.
Best Place to get Your Bowl on: SCHOFIELD BOWLING CENTER
Schofield Bowling Center's sparkling 46 lanes, friendly staff, good food and cheap beer bowled us over. It's $2 per person to bowl (for civilians), Monday through Sunday, and $1.50 to rent shoes. For added fun, there's Cosmic Bowling on Fridays at 10 p.m., Saturdays at 8:30 p.m. and Sundays at 6 p.m.
The snack bar has the usual fries, hot dogs and loco moco, as well as more heart-friendly items such as a salmon burger. For the 21-and-over crowd, the bar is stocked with Bud, Bud Light, MGD, Heineken, Corona, Sam Adams and Killian's, with pints priced at $2.25 and pitchers at $7. There's a small arcade in the corner (including, to our delight, a Ms. Pac-Man game), as well as a Pro Shop and, if you're in need of a trim, a convenient barbershop. Civilians can get on base by going through Lyman Gate off Kunia Road and applying for a day pass. All vehicle registration and personal identification must be current. Building 557, Burr St., Schofield Barracks, 655-0573.

Best Pool Hall: HAWAIIAN BRIAN'S BILLIARDS
For the past 20 years, Hawaiian Brian's Billiards has been the place for serious pool players–39 championship tables, weekly tournaments, late-night hours and a pro shop where customers can pick up cue sticks, balls, sportswear, even tables. Players can fuel up at the snack bar (the menu includes sandwiches, burgers, saimin and chili) or take a break at its extensive arcade. Over the past year, Brian's has gotten even better, thanks to family-friendly improvements, such as banning smoking, offering discounts for families with kids under 14, starting an afterschool program for teens and hosting parties and fund raisers. "What we're trying to do is create a family entertainment center, rather than just a pool hall," says Violet Anderson, who co-owns Brian's with her husband, Glenn, and the business's namesake, "Hawaiian" Brian Hashimoto. 1680 Kapi'olani Blvd., 946-1343. www.hawaiianbrians.com.
Best Karaoke: KARAOKE HUT
|photo: Alex Viarnes
OK, so it doesn't have the most organized song catalog and you have to handwrite your selections. Nevertheless, Karaoke Hut is No. 1 of O'ahu's private karaoke rooms. While other spots we checked out looked more like cinderblock prison cells, Karaoke Hut offers seven, spacious rooms (spiffed up with nature wallpaper murals and cushy seats), a full bar (most other private rooms are BYOB) and attentive staff who make sure to keep the songs and drinks coming. Hourly rates are affordable, too, ranging from $30 for a seven-person room to $60 for 30 people. Come before 8 p.m. for half off the regular room prices. 909 Kapahulu Ave., 734-7771.
Best Happy-Hour Specials:
When we set out to find the best happy-hour specials, we had only one thing in mind: They had to be cheap. Here, our picks for the best budget-friendly venues:
* The place of choice for those drinking on a dime is MAGOO'S PIZZA. It's always happy hour and the bar has about 80 beers on tap. Mugs start at $1 and go up to $2, and pitchers cost between $5 and $10. You'll find local brews Big Aloha Ehu Ale and Kona Longboard Lager, as well as harder-to-find pints such as Rogue Dead Guy Ale and Smithwick's Irish Ale. There are also $2 Long Island ice teas, $3.50 apple martinis and $4.50 Jager bombs. 1015 University Ave., 946-8830.
* The place to be for the 9-to-5 set is INDIGO'S MARTINI MADNESS, Tuesday through Friday. The bar's fabulous martinis, including the lychee and sake, are all $2.75. 1121 Nu'uanu Ave., 521-2900.
* MAI TAI BAR's happy hours (yes, plural) are always going off. Every day from 4 to 7 p.m., there are specials on pupu and drinks, including the bar's extremely potent mai tais. From 8 to 11 p.m., the drink discounts continue, with additional savings on well drinks and beers. 1450 Ala Moana Blvd., Ste. #3247, 947-2900.
* The best bar for frugal sports enthusiasts is SKYBOX. Happy hour, from 6 to 8 p.m., includes $2.50 domestic beers, $3 imports, $3 Crown and half off food. The outstanding pupu include killer steak fries with four different dips, garlic chicken wings, Spam musubi, loco moco and fried pickles.

Best Street Entertainment: ALBERT MAIELUA AND HIS BUDDIES
They look like your run-of-the-mill kanikapila band; you know the one with your uncle, his friend, your cousin, and anyone else at your potluck. But once these guys start to sing, it hits you–these guys are pros. Albert Maielua and his buddies have been entertaining downtowners for years with Hawaiian music and the occasional walk-by hula dancer. "We let anyone join. If they can share, share; and we share back," says Maielua. With a permit from the city and county and a tent from the Fort Street Business Improvement District, these guys play–rain or shine–at lunchtime under a white tent at the mauka end of Fort Street Mall. This isn't their first gig; they've all been performers at some point, from hotel showrooms to dinner cruises–and it shows. Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. (Hawaiian time).
Best Bar Food: SIDE STREET INN
There's a reason local celebs like chef Roy Yamaguchi and Mayor Mufi Hannemann can be spotted at Side Street Inn, a no-frills sports bar where locals knock back Bud Lights, watch the big games and sing karaoke in front of patrons who couldn't care less. Simply put, this bar cooks up the best local grinds in town. Customers go nuts over Side Street's pan-fried pork chops, its mountain of fried rice and its fresh yakisoba. We love the liliko'i baby back ribs and pocho clams, steamed with Portuguese sausage and peppers. Then again, you're safe ordering anything on the menu here–it's almost impossible to go wrong. 1225 Hopaka St., 591-0253.
Best Local Web site: PUKAS IN HAWAI'I: THE SHORT LIST TO HAWAI'I WEB SITES
Access to information of almost any kind is just three or four clicks away, thanks to the Internet. And there are scores of useful local Web sites. But our favorite is Pukas in Hawai'i: The Short List to Hawai'i Web sites (www.hawaiiradiotv.com/puka.html). Here you'll find an alphabetical list of links to more than 200 helpful sites, everything from Craigslist Honolulu to the Full-On Pidgin home page. Add this site to your favorites list, and you'll be a click or two closer to anything you're looking for in these Islands. –Terry Hunter, KGMB9

Tips for Selecting a Tactical Jacket from STORMFORCE
How would you select a tactical jacket? What factors do you look for when selecting a tactical jacket? When the going gets tough, your tactical gear may be your only protection.
Things to consider when buying a tactical jacket
Here are some important things that you should consider when choosing a tactical jacket.
Mobility requirements: Heavy tactical jackets protect the wearer in extreme weather conditions but they might also hamper dexterity and mobility. In addition, a heavy jacket will also diminish your stamina. There are many light tactical jackets that offer an equal level of protection against the cold.
The terrain is also important. If you have to travel through dense, heavy woods a traditional parka would not be enough. The tactical jacket must hold close to your body so that the material is not snagged by a branch or does not develop a tear. It must also give you easy access to equipment and gear, like holstered weapons.
Climate: Similar to how a knife would not be of much use in a gun fight, a plate carrier cannot help you during a snow storm, even though it is a tactical jacket. Your gear should be suited to the climate you are going to be in, whether it is a summer night or a snowstorm. There are different tactical jackets available for different situations.
Color: The tactical jacket will be your outermost piece of clothing. If you are in service, the jacket's color must match with your uniform. This needs to be considered. A law enforcement officer who wears a yellow jacket over his uniform when the rest of his department uses a black or a navy blue jacket is going to stand out. Also, note that tactical gear used by the military caters to a different need. What may be suitable in a military situation may not be a good option elsewhere.
Not only for the military
Tactical jackets are special and they are unlike normal jackets. But it does not mean that tactical jackets can be used only by people in the military, SWAT, or emergency response teams. Policemen on patrol, traffic policemen, fire and rescue teams, as well as normal citizens can wear them.
The best tactical jackets will actually complement the wearer's range of motions and help him perform better by keeping him warm and dry. If you are interested, you can add a hood, tactical pants, or mid layers to your tactical jacket. Tactical jackets worn by fire protection and law enforcement agencies are suited to the requirements of their jobs. Some types of tactical jackets also offer protection in dangerous situations.

TORONTO (Reuters) - Thinking about quitting your job? A humorous new app aims to relieve the stress and anxiety of confronting the boss with the news by sending a text message instead.
Although the new iPhone app is meant to be funny, its creators are hoping it will take off and people will use it to leave jobs.
The Quit Your Job app takes users through a series of steps to determine why they are leaving and then crafts a text message that is sent directly to their boss.
"Despite all the advances in technology we still quit our jobs the same way we did hundreds of year ago," said Alex Douzet, chief executive officer of TheLadders, a New York-based employment company that produces the app.
"There's a lot of anxiety around the resignation process, so we used technology to ease the pain in that moment and make it seamless to breakup with your boss," he added.
About 2.3 million Americans left their jobs last October, citing reasons such as dissatisfaction with career growth, compensation or simply feeling unrecognized, according to the most recent figures from the U.S. Department of Labor.
Douzet said the first few months of a new year are the busiest time for job searches. Many people wait for their end-of-year bonuses before making a move to a new position.
"It always correlates with New Year's resolutions. People think 'I'm not happy and want to make a move'" he said.
Quit Your Job was inspired by another app called BreakupText. Its designers teamed up with the TheLadders to create the new app.
BreakupText, which lets users leave their significant others via a text message, costs 99 cents and is available for the iPhone.
With Quit Your Job, after sending their resignation users can browse open positions on another app called, Job Search by TheLadders, which targets positions based on the user's job profile and career goals. The free app was launched as an iPhone app in July and released on Android last week.
"This is unchartered territory," he said of the Quit Your Job app. "It's an experiment to see if people will actually use it seriously. If thousands of people download the app and only one ends up using it seriously, that's interesting because it's changing behaviors," he said.
Douzet added that before leaving a job people should have another one lined up.
"It's more appealing to know you're in demand. You'll have more power and leverage since you already have a pay check coming in," he explained.

There have been big changes over at my main blog, Blue Kitchen. It's bigger, more robust and filled with even more resources for home cooks and two new posts every Wednesday. So with more than a little sadness, I'll no longer be updating What's on the kitchen boombox? or my other sidebar blog, WTF? Random food for thought.
As much as I loved writing them, they've just never gotten the kind of readership that warranted keeping them going. The second weekly post I mentioned above will pretty much take the place of WTF?, although in a more food-focused, less random sort of way. And every once in a while, when the right piece of music catches my ear, the kitchen boombox will turn up there.
I will leave these two blogs up, however. So anytime you want to poke around in the archives, please come back. I know I will on occasion. Thanks for reading! I hope to see you at Blue Kitchen.

A good ranger stands up to bad bureaucrats
When a woman ran to the front door of Yellowstone Park Ranger Robert M. Danno with a small bundle in her arms and a panicked look on her face, he grabbed the medical kit the National Park Service had issued to him. Danno, whose duties included emergency medicine as well as law enforcement, carried the kit with him constantly, even bringing it to his own home. It was fortunate that it was available when the young mother laid her blue and unconscious infant on the ranger's kitchen table and begged him to do something.
That was in 1994, and Danno had worked with the Park Service long enough to know that during the course of every park ranger's career, bad things can and will happen. But he never imagined that one day, over 10 years later, he would find himself handcuffed and held at gunpoint by his peers. He had no idea that he would end up facing a courtroom trial, or that his testimony about what occurred that day on his kitchen table inside Yellowstone National Park would play a role during it.
In 2003, after working in several Western parks, Danno accepted the position of chief ranger at the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historic Park near Washington, D.C. Many rich and powerful people live near the C&O Canal, which parallels the Potomac River. For decades, park officials aggressively protected the historic and natural integrity of the C&O Canal through scenic easements prohibiting landowners from cutting mature trees on lands bordering the park. So, in 2004, when Dan Snyder, the billionaire owner of the Washington Redskins, clear-cut 130 protected trees, it was Rob Danno's duty as the park's chief law enforcement ranger to initiate an investigation.
Some facts surrounding the Snyder tree-cutting scandal remain sketchy because the high-level government officials involved "don't recall" anything. According to an Office of Inspector General report, it appears that Fran Mainella, Park Service director at the time, and several others "from the Bush administration" attended a Washington Redskins game. Soon after, Dan Snyder was given unprecedented permission by C&O Canal Superintendent Kevin Brandt to cut down 130 protected trees.
The clear-cut improved the view from Snyder's mansion and increased his property value significantly. It also left behind an unsightly gash in an eroding hillside. Snyder's neighbors were furious, the Audubon Society was horrified, and Rob Danno blew the whistle on the park superintendent.
Eventually, the Inspector General found the Park Service guilty of "wrongdoing," and the case was forwarded to the U.S. Attorney's Office. But instead of following up on the Inspector General's report, the U.S. Attorney's Office focused its attention on a case the Park Service had begun building against Danno himself.
In 2007, federal officers raided Danno's home and indicted the ranger for theft of government property. Among the seized items were a gag-gift necklace made of obsolete government keys, retired Park Service signs and an emergency medical trauma kit.
Danno tells all the sordid details in his new book, "Worth Fighting For: A Park Ranger's Unexpected Battle Against Federal Bureaucrats and the Washington Redskins Owner Dan Snyder." In this cautionary tale for all whistleblowers, the stubborn vindictiveness behind the Park Service's retaliation against this ranger is stunning. Incredibly, a U.S. attorney had the audacity to bring the theft case against Danno to trial.
It is a pleasure to read how the prosecutor squirmed while the ranger tells the jury about the day he laid a blue infant on his kitchen table in Yellowstone and resuscitated her until she started breathing again. The baby turned from blue to pink with the help of an oxygen tent Danno created with items pulled from the Park Service medical kit he always brought home when off duty -- the same emergency trauma kit the federal agency later charged him with stealing.
The jury had no clue that Danno was a government whistleblower, but even without the benefit of this knowledge, the deliberations lasted only 20 minutes. Their verdict: Not guilty, acquitted on all charges.
Yet Danno's ordeal with the Park Service is far from over. He remains demoted, stripped of his gun and badge, exiled to a lonely office and shunned by his colleagues.
Was it worth it? The ruin of his reputation? The lawyers' fees? Were a hundred or so trees really worth fighting for? Amazingly, Danno still thinks so. "In spite of everything that has happened," he says, "I am still loyal to the national parks."
Andrea Lankford is a contributor to Writers on the Range, a service of High Country News (hcn.org). She is a former park ranger, the author of Ranger Confidential and lives in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. For more about Rob Danno, go to www.honorcodepublishing.com.

"It is important to stress that no cases of imported Ebola have ever been reported in the UK and the risk of a traveller going to West Africa and contracting Ebola remains very low since Ebola is transmitted by direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of an infected person." BBC global health correspondent Tulip Mazumdar said the West African outbreak had been going on for four months. In that time local people had been looking after the sick and carrying out burials, which could actually help to spread the virus, she added. Ebola kills up to 90% of those infected, but patients have a better chance of survival if they receive early treatment. The outbreak - the world's deadliest to date - was first reported in Guinea in February. It then spread to Liberia and Sierra Leone. Ebola virus disease (EVD) Symptoms include high fever, bleeding and central nervous system damage Fatality rate can reach 90% Incubation period is two to 21 days There is no vaccine or cure Supportive care such as rehydrating patients who have diarrhoea and vomiting can help recovery Fruit bats are considered to be virus' natural host

NPA's suggested standard is proactive rather than reactive.
(PRWEB) July 27, 2010
This year, the National Pediculosis Association (NPA) celebrates its 25th National Head Lice Prevention Campaign for back-to-school 2010-2011. The NPA is sending out a call-to-action: "Comb out the lice and nits when there are fewer of them and before the task becomes unnecessarily challenging." Parents need to know what to look for, how to make an accurate determination of lice and nits and understand the benefits of checking their children regularly.
What is the purpose of CombFirst?
Pediculosis is a communicable disease affecting children across the nation. The NPA wants communities to be informed, preventive and proactive. Checking children after school, childcare or camp is important, but nothing compares to parents checking them regularly at home so they can arrive to the group setting lice and nit free.
Dismissing children without having educated the parent population in advance makes a crisis when there needn't be one. CombFirst! emphasizes early intervention to protect children from unnecessary exposure to pesticides, sprays and other chemical lice control products. Some products are marketed without safety studies yet recommended for daily use.
Helpful trustworthy information about this important public health issue is available at http://www.headlice.org where the NPA offers free downloads, tools, and videos on how to comb. There is also a section for KIDS to learn and play while parents check their hair. http://www.headlice.org/kids/index.htm
Pediculosis leads to the use of pesticides.
Head lice are not benign. Pediculosis (medical term for lice infestation) leads to the use of pesticides. Children deserve thoughtful attention to this blood-obligate human parasite. Some insist that lice are unworthy of proactive efforts because they believe head lice are not a threat to health. Yet too often the health risks with pediculosis come with how we respond. Reports to NPA http://www.headlice.org/report/index.htm indicate that misuse and abuse of pesticides has become a health risk with pediculosis, just as controversy about the "No Nit Policy" has become a detriment to traditional communicable disease prevention measures.
Which No Nit Policy?
"No Nit Policies" vary widely from school to school. It is worrisome when a policy is only about sending children home to be treated. Too often parents get letters without education, warnings and without offering safer choices - especially for children already identified at higher risk to pesticides.
Children have unique vulnerabilities to pesticides and parents should understand potential risks before they rush to treat. http://www.headlice.org/downloads/whynonchem.htm. The NPA, incorporated in 1983, stays the course with its mission because pesticides haven't gotten any safer and children aren't any less vulnerable to them.
NPA recommends head lice management measures that not only begin but focus mainly on education, community awareness and routine screening. http://www.headlice.org/downloads/nonitpolicy.htm. NPA's suggested standard is proactive rather than reactive. It is written to avoid dismissals by giving parents every opportunity to send children to school lice and nit free.
Screen, Detect, Remove, Protect
With an effective combing tool in hand, NPA reports that early detection with thorough manual removal of lice and nits is the best alternative we know to pesticides and other chemicals -- especially since there is no totally safe and effective chemical treatment available.
Yet no matter what the method, the critical factor is combing out the lice and nits when there are fewer of them and before the task becomes unnecessarily challenging. The viability of lice and nits in the hair is irrelevant. Dead or alive, old or new - "if you don't get 'em out, you've still got 'em!"
Why August and September?
If head lice are a problem all year long, why September? September is designated as National Head Lice Prevention Month. Back-to-school signals a new beginning. Once again, parents need to understand the communicability of head lice before outbreaks occur. Armed with reasonable expectations, knowledge and effective tools, parents will be enabled to avoid the dreaded call from school when someone else was first to notice their child was infested. Families and classmates will avoid the disruption that occurs when there is no public health prevention standard in place.
Good News on Lice
And the news on head lice isn't always with controversy. A recent National Science Foundation article is very encouraging says Deborah Altschuler, NPA President. "These are exciting times as researchers use new technology to find better understanding of the head louse itself, and to develop safer treatment methods, such as the new LouseBuster™ device." http://www.nsf.gov/news/special_reports/science_nation/lice.jsp
The American Academy of Pediatrics' new guidelines on lice show greater appreciation for just how important this issue is to family values and offers suggestions for combing. There is no need for panic or for children to miss school when parents are informed about the benefits of early detection and the fact that the lice are resistant to various treatments. Parents who screen regularly help protect all the children in the classroom when they send their children to school lice and nit free. Communities that promote head lice prevention programs demonstrate a commitment to family health and wellness.
Research validates combing:
In a recent editorial, http://www.headlice.org/editorial/2010/study-validates-combing.htm, Altschuler reminded readers that "Combing is a scientifically reliable method to remove all lice and nits - which is another way to say it can end an infestation - literally.
Combing is the least expensive approach that accomplishes what chemicals cannot. It enables families to be self-reliant, proactive, and preventive. It allows for regular screening and early detection which makes the combing approach even more practical and realistic. While chemical treatments, pediculicides, and broad spectrum antibiotics develop resistance and potentially adverse health effects, nothing compares to the kindness of a comb."
About the National Pediculosis Association
Founded in 1983, the National Pediculosis Association, Inc. (NPA) is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to protecting children from the misuse and abuse of potentially harmful lice and scabies pesticide treatments. The NPA encourages proactive standardized head lice management programs in an effort to keep children in school lice and nit free. As part of its mission, the NPA developed the LiceMeister® comb and makes it available on its website http://www.headlice.org. Proceeds from the comb allow the NPA to maintain independence from product manufacturers and stay loyal to its goal to protect children. For additional information, please visit http://www.headlice.org.

A year ago it looked like Carey Mulligan would star and Jodie Foster would direct Wentworth Miller's vampire script. Four months ago it appeared that Colin Firth would star... scrap all that.
Matthew Goode is negotiating to land the lead role in "Stoker," reported Variety. The film, which will co-star Mia Wasikowska and Nicole Kidman, is to be the English-language debut of "Old Boy" director Chan-wook Park.
The script by Miller, best known for his part on "Prison Break," which made the 2010 Blacklist tells the story of how "After the death of her father, a teenager must deal with a mysterious uncle who returns to spend time with the family."
U.S. & World
Even without Firth, it's an impressive cast. Goode has quietly been doing great work in films like "A Single Man," "Match Point"
"Leap Year," and "The Lookout," while both Wasikowska and Kidman are coming off strong performances in "Jane Eyre" and "Rabbit Hole," respectively.

Does the form follow the function or the function follow the form? With such a gorgeous piece, as designer Markus Bischof has developed once more for Vauen, this frequently asked question is superfluous - he unites both equally. The long, elegant shape, the light edge that stretches from the bowl to the mouthpieces, to the point of the exquisite colours of the wood. Evident enjoyment in five attractive designs. Of course in white dot quality "Leta", which comes in an attractive box, is a gift for every pipe connoisseur, a "great-to-take" pleasure in a timeless design.

Tip number 1
A filter system for pure enjoyment.
Only available from VAUEN
Our "Conex System" ensures an airtight fir by lightly pressing on the mouthpiece.
The result: the smoke which enters your mouth is 100% filtered.
Tip number 2
Full enjoyment from the very beginning
VAUEN pipes don´t have to be slowly broken in over a long time because the wood is protected
by a special lining in the tobacco bowl.
Even by temperatures of 300 to 400°C, which occurs when lighting, cannot harm the pipe.
Tip number 3
Achieve natural beauty
To make a pipe even more beautiful, the grain of the pipe is taken into account during production.
There are two classic grain patterns:
the straight grain and the bird´s eye grain.
In order to achieve these, the raw briar blocks from which the pipe is created,
needs th be cut along the natural grain course.
Tip number 4
Sandblasting makes the most of the grain of the pipe
A pipe bowl which has a beautiful grain but with inherent imperfections is sandblasted.
In the process the softer parts of the surface are washed out the harder relief.
The advantages are, as with rusticated pipes, a greater ruggedness and a cooler smoking pleasure.

While combing through Help on a recent pass, I found that there was little information about how to modify (change) timecode in Adobe Premiere Pro. It's definitely a feature that you may find some use for. While I plan to include more information about modifying timecode in Help in the very near future, I thought that in the mean time it would be helpful to share with you just how to do this.
Before I tell you how to modify timecode, you are probably wondering why you would modify timecode in the first place. In most cases, you really don't want to mess with the sanctity of embedded timecode in your clips. There are a few compelling reasons, including:
- After shooting dual system sound, you can modify either the audio or video for synching via timecode.
- To fix timecode errors or anomalies during production.
- The camera original timecode doesn't work for your post workflow.
- To match timecode of a smart slate.
- In offline/online workflow, you want the timecode of your low-res footage to match your master tapes for accurate match back and recapture.
Before you change timecode, be aware that you cannot access AUX timecode tracks in Adobe Premiere Pro so you must modify your source timecode. Fortunately, Adobe Premiere Pro has a Revert button if you need to restore a clip's original timecode.
To modify timecode for a single clip:
- In the Project panel, select the clip.
- Choose Clip > Modify > Timecode.
- In the Modify Clip dialog, choose a new timecode for your clip. You can choose to modify timecode for the beginning of a clip, or at the current frame.
Note: If you are already parked on the first frame, this option is disabled.
To modify timecode for multiple clips:
- Select the clips
- Choose Clip > Modify > Timecode
- In the Modify Clip dialog, click in the timecode field. Enter in the common timecode for your selected clips. Again, you can choose to modify timecode for the beginning of the clips, or at the current frame.
Sometimes, you'll want to modify the timecode of a clip in the timeline. For example, you find that the clap on the smart slate does not match your clips timecode at that point in time.
To modify timecode of a clip in the timeline.
- Select the clip.
- Press M, to perform a match frame.
- Choose Clip > Modify > Timecode.
- In the Modify Clip dialog, click in the timecode field. Enter in the timecode for your selected clip. You will usually want to modify timecode at the current frame.
I hope this help you understand the hows and whys of modifying timecode. Be sure to leave a comment if you have more to add regarding modifying timecode.

The M. Herrington Gallery greeted visitors Friday night with a solo show Ashes to Honey featuring the newest collection by painter Melissa Herrington.
Viewers sipped on wine and sparkling water as they listened to music and spied Herrington's new work of webs, cocoons, lacework, knitting, twists and dust.
Pretty and petite, Herrington openly greeted the guests taking the time to explain the elements of each piece inspired by the imagery of ropes, braided lilies, unraveling webs, cracks and crevices.
Using oil and acrylics on canvas and wood pieces, Herrington married the representational with the abstract.
Herrington says the blending of imagery and colors naturally merges with her own aesthetic and was the inspiration behind Ashes to Honey: an exploration of entrapment, emergence, layering and life.
Herrington produced this body of work after a residential fellowship in Marnay, France awarded through CAMAC and Foundation Tenout.
"It's the continuity of story that I keep coming back to with this work," explains Herrington.
A rope-like mark could be viewed as divisive: interior versus exterior, domestic versus worldly, confinement versus freedom, the self versus others.
Her current collection features female figures gathering in the vicinity of some portal—a door, a cocoon, a window or the transparency of the surface—hinting at escape or trespass. Obscured pencil inscriptions and dense layers of acrylic paint and pigments create residues that heighten the tension hinting at a coherent completion of form, but never fully realized. The result: a contemporary visual portmanteau.
The contrasting finishes add to the overall dialogue between the pieces.
While each of Herrington's paintings represents different stages, a sense of hopeful pessimism pervades the work leaving the view both haunted and confident.
Ashes to Honey runs through June 31.
