Justin Bieber Gives 'Perspective' in New 'Believe' Clip + Plays With Kids in Guatemala [VIDEOS]
Justin Bieber is showing there's more to his life than strippers, smoking weed, super loud parties, showing his butt crack and similar ill-advised activities. The 'PYD' singer is giving Beliebers (and some non-Beliebers!) perspective -- literally -- on what his everyday is like. And his everyday? It's awesome.
In a new clip from his 'Believe' film, Bieber emerges onto the stage with his giant speaker-angel wings ... and lets the viewer see it from a firsthand perspective. It's high, he's mighty and it's an intense experience. While it would seem surreal to the rest of us, it's just all in a day's work for the Biebs.
In another new fan-recorded video, the crooner interacts with young Beliebers in Guatemala. He's smiling sweetly and earnestly throughout the brief clip, which was recorded during his charity work with Pencils of Promise. He ties a young boy's shoes, and to say it's adorable would probably be the understatement of the century.
Keep up the good work like this, Biebs -- it'll overshadow your penchant for other things. Especially if you keep better track of who violates your confidentiality agreements!

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (May 4, 2010) - After reaching the conference semifinals a year ago, the ETSU men's soccer team will have its hands full with a loaded schedule including hosting national semifinalist North Carolina in 2010 as head coach Scott Calabrese announced the fall schedule Tuesday.
"We have put together a very challenging schedule for the 2010 season," Calabrese said. "The non-conference portion of our schedule features some of the top teams in their respective regions. They are programs with years of tradition, success, NCAA tournament appearances and national championships in the case of Clemson and UNC."
ETSU will play eight games at Summers-Taylor Stadium, and ten on the road including trips to ACC and SoCon schools. After exhibition games against Wofford (Aug. 21) and Tusculum (Aug. 27), the Bucs open the 2010 season with a four-game road swing including contests against Furman (Sept. 1), Clemson (Sept. 6), Bradley (Sept. 10) and Evansville (Sept.12).
The Bucs open their home slate on Sept. 15 when the Winthrop Eagles come to town for a 7 p.m. game, the first home night contest since the start of the program in 2008. The men's soccer team continues a five-game home stand with Marshall (Sept. 20) and UNC Asheville (Sept.25) before getting into conference play.
Campbell comes to town on Sept. 30 for the Atlantic Sun home opener at 7 p.m. at Summers-Taylor Stadium, while the Bucs close out the home stand against Mercer (Oct. 2).
A week later, ETSU heads to Stetson (Oct. 8) and Florida Gulf Coast (Oct. 10) for its first road conference weekend. The Bucs then come home to host Jacksonville (Oct. 15) and North Florida (Oct. 17) before closing out the conference season on the road with Belmont (Oct. 22), Lipscomb (Oct. 24) and USC Upstate (Oct. 27).
The Tar Heels, who have been in the College Cup the last two seasons, make their way to Johnson City, Tenn. on Oct. 30 at 7 p.m. for a big showdown with the Bucs. ETSU will look to repay UNC for a 2-1 overtime loss from a year ago. The Buccaneers close out the regular season on Nov. 2 as they head to Boone, N.C. to face Appalachian State.
"By bringing UNC to Johnson City it gives our fans a chance to see a top 5 NCAA men's soccer team packed with talent and future professional players up against a quickly improving Buccaneer men's soccer program," Calabrese added. "It is a great opportunity for our program. This schedule will measure our team and their progress over the three years since the program's inception and will definitely prepare us for the all important conference schedule starting at the end of September.

MoFo Bonus post! That's right, folks, we're in Vegan Mecca - aka: Portland, Oregon!
Since I had to fly in and out of Portland on my way to visit my great aunt Tashie, I arranged for a quick, but wonderful, visit with my PDX friends Kittee and Sandy. See our happy faces glowing with friend-love??
You gotta make the most of these visits, so we met up at Back to Eden bakery. Back to Eden is an all-vegan, largely gluten-free bakery that also has candies, vegan cookbooks, soft serve, tea and coffee. It is a magical place. I love it so much. Even though I wish I lived right next door, it is probably just as well that I don't. Seriously the stuff here is a-mazing. Here's Kittee noshing on a gluten free Chocolate-Toffee Bar.
Kittee and Sandy have been telling me, for months now, about the glory of BtE's cheezecakes. I have to admit, I was skeptical. I've had some pretty lame-o vegan cheezecakes, and I had pretty much written them off for good. But Kittee and Sandy pretty much know what they're talking about, so I was interested. When we arrived, it was still morning, and I was more in a muffin mood than a cheezecake mood, but luckily for me, my loving friends talked some sense into me. Sandy and I each got a piece of marionberry cheezecake. OH EM GEE. Amazement! Amazeballs! This cheezecake is totally freaking incredible. It has that perfect tartness that a cheesecake should have... it's light and fluffy and just about heaven on a plate. Plus, they change their flavor every day, and I was very stoked to arrive on Marionberry day. I pretty much LOVE all things blackberry. This cheezecake alone is pretty much worth the cost of your plane ticket to Portland.
Plus, my excellent friends showered me with culinary goodies from Portland. Sandy brought along not-one-but-two loaves of Dave's Killer Bread, lovingly wrapped and decorated! Kittee brought me a Mondo Bag of bulk Soy Curls and a package of Freddy Guy's Roasted Hazelnuts (which we are still enjoying). Thank you Kittee & Sandy!!!!
But, since I'm no dummy, I also stocked up on goodies to share with Tashie over the long weekend. A lemon custard turnover, a marionberry-spice muffin, and a cherry-almond scone. I don't really need to tell you again how delicious these all were, do I?

After all that noshing, we went for a little neighborhood stroll. Of course, Mr. Vee came along too.
Then, on my way back into Portland, there was time for a quick visit with some Portland cousins before heading to the airport. My cousin Eliza runs a very nice B&B up in Victoria BC, and she was saying that it has been hard to make good gluten-free baked goodies. Well! I insisted (selflessly), that we drop by Back to Eden once more, so that she could see just how incredible vegan + gluten-free really can be. We picked up a Chocolate-Toffee Bar, a Lemon Lime Cupcake, and a Maple Pecan Muffin to share for our family visit. Incredible!!!

A Way to Share Photos, Files And Money in Black & White
Walt Mossberg reviews Xsync, an iPhone app that uses QR codes to transfer photos, songs, videos and even money
Say you want to quickly transfer a file, like a photo or a contact entry, from your smartphone to a friend's. Most people would email or text the file. But a number of technologies have come along to make the process quicker and simpler.
On some Android phones, you can "beam" files like photos from phone to phone by tapping one phone to another, or bringing them very close. But that requires that both phones have a special chip, called NFC, which isn't yet universal on Android phones and doesn't exist at all in iPhones....

We all know how expensive Disneyland is, which is why getting free parking is such a popular subject for so many visitors -particularly when the lot now cost $14. Fortunately, there are legitimate ways to do so.
First off, let me start by saying that if you're a regular visitor, you should simply get the year pass and when you buy your year pass, pay the extra $80 for your pass to get parking included. It is completely worth the extra fee to never have to worry about the costs of parking ever again, plus the passes give you discounts at restaurants and shops.
If you only want to prepare for one trip though, consider eating the character breakfast at the PCH Grill at the Paradise Peir hotel. It is around $30 per person, but it's all you can eat and because you get to interact with your favorite characters, it's a great option for the kiddos (a picture from our trip can be seen to the left). When you park in the hotel's lot, you get free parking for 5 hours with validation. When your five hours are almost up, go back to the car and head out to get a cheap lunch or take a break at your hotel.
Next, park in the Downtown Disney lot and just be sure to leave before your three free hours are up. You can take the monorail in and out of the park to this lot, which definitely helps speed up the time table. If you miss out on getting out of the park on time, they charge in twenty minute increments, so your parking fees can add up quickly. There is a chance that if you wait until very late at night, that the staff will leave the parking booths and you can leave the lot for free, but this is risky and if it fails, you will end up paying a whole lot.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Jan. 25, 2012) – The ETSU women's soccer team has teamed up with Youth Service America (YSA) and the Boys and Girls Club of Johnson City/Washington County to offer free soccer clinics through the S.O.C.C.E.R. (Stopping Obesity in Children through Creative Education and Reinforcement) program, which commenced on Tuesday when the first free clinics were held.
ETSU junior Tori Head (Kingsport, Tenn.), sophomore Rachel Lewis (Sandy Spring, Md.) and freshmen Jenna Caudle (Middletown, Md.) and Ellis Parsons (Cardiff, Wales) participated in the opening clinic, which lasted from 5:45 – 7 p.m. Every Tuesday and Thursday until April 19, one of five different groups of ETSU women's soccer student-athletes will teach the clinic, all in an effort to promote healthy lifestyle behaviors among the youth of Johnson City.
"The aim of the S.O.C.C.E.R. program is to use soccer as a vehicle to promote healthy lifestyle behaviors," said Emma Apatu, a community outreach volunteer and Dr. of Public Health student at ETSU. "Specifically, S.O.C.C.E.R. will extend Triple Play's breadth by offering free soccer clinics led by youth volunteers from ETSU's women's soccer team. Additionally, undergraduate students from ETSU's College of Public Health will be recruited to provide program support and sustainability.
"The soccer clinics will include an active component where participants will engage in soccer drills and scrimmages. At the conclusion of each clinic, participants will be provided with healthy snacks and food education. The program will culminate on Global Youth Service Day (April 20-22), during which participants and youth volunteers will plant a healthy vegetable garden at the Boys and Girls Club facility."
YSA offered the S.O.C.C.E.R. program a $500 grant through its UnitedHealth HEROES program. According to its website, the program awards grants to help youth create and implement local, hand-on programs to fight childhood obesity.

2012 MLB Draft Thread
It's getting close to that time of year again. College and high school ball begin around the end of February and early March. Soon we watch the stock of top prospects rise and fall. Still quite early, but the general opinion of the 2012 draft class is that it's relatively weak overall. The strength leans heavily towards the high school ranks, particularly the bats. The college talent is quite thin, which is unfortunate for teams like the White Sox who all but ignore prep players. (The White Sox didn't draft a high schooler until the 33rd round last year)
With the 2012 draft comes the CBA changes that should level the playing field towards teams that don't spend heavily on the draft overall, or over the recommended slot. (see White Sox) With the new spending cap, there remains many questions. Primarily how it will effect high school players. The ability to take prep players in late rounds while throwing them piles of money is no longer an option. One would believe that early rounds are going to be skewed more towards the prep class, as the risk of not signing increases as the bonuses decrease as the rounds progress. Some think it's going to push more players to attend college, while others think it will remain largely unchanged. Jim Callis summarizes the most important changes, and notes how it could effect teams this summer.
The White Sox gained a supplemental pick this season by offering Mark Buehrle arbitration and him declining it, and eventually signing with Miami. That pick is 48th overall. The White Sox first round pick is 13th overall.
The 2012 draft order looks as such, with only changes to occur when Raul Ibanez and Derrek Lee sign.

Classical track, the mood is merry, relaxing and mellow… like taking a country walk or stroll in spring or summer. As the music goes on it builds, so is in two parts. Although the second section is simply a variation of the first. The mood of the track is light and carefree.
Instrumentation is classical/orchestral: bassoon, oboe, cello, strings (both legato and staccato), flute, harp, celesta and a synth pad.
The tempo is medium, around 90bpm, this gives the track even more of a laid back feel. Other tracks similar to this in my collection:
1. Spring & Summer Classical Pack
3. Windmills

Family Denies Charges; Steenkamp's Show Airs; Agent Cancelling Races [VIDEO]
The family of Oscar Pistorius is denying charges that the Olympic runner murdered his girlfriend.
Arnold Pistorius describes his nephew as "numb with shock" and grief over Reeva Steenkamp's death.
The model was shot and killed on Valentine's Day at Oscar Pistorius' home in the suburbs of South Africa's capital. Police are holding Pistorius pending a bail hearing next week.
Meanwhile, South African Broadcasting has aired a reality TV show starring Reeva Steencamp. Steenkamp's family says it was the model's last wish for them to watch the show. A cousin says Steenkamp was proud of being in "Tropika Island of Treasure." The show was filmed in Jamaica last year.
Pistorius' agent says he has begun calling off races for the Olympic sprinter since he was charged in Steenkamp's death. Pistorius was to have run a rematch with fellow double-amputee Alan Oliveira to promote the 2016 Rio Olympics and Paralympics on Copacabana beach at the end of March.

Click here to watch today's WIT luncheon live. For information on today's luncheon and speakers, see the SQLPASS.org page on Keynotes.
12:00 Geoff Hitten, BOD member and WIT dude (okay, I don't know his official title). Introduced Jes Borland. This is the 9th annual WIT lunch at PASS Summit. Sponsored by SQL Sentry. WIT chapter is not limited to women! Jes thanks volunteers and organizers.
AspiringGeek (Jimmy May): At #passwit @grrlgeek asks #sqlkilt men to stand. I'm drawing the line if asked to curtsy #sqlpass
Please fill out your evaluations, either on paper or online.
12:04 Introducing panelists: Yanni Robel, Dale Clark, Karen Lopez, Sharon Dooley. Topic today is how to make yourself heard, how to ask for what you want. I've been having this coversation a LOT lately, with both men and women, so I'm particularly interested in this year's discussions.
12:05 Yanni talks about getting the opportunity to go to SQL Connections for the first time; she said she was the only woman to volunteer, and the others were very reticent. "It's very important to ASK… In order to get what you want, you need to start asking."
12:09 Dale says it's a big issue between technologists. "We're not necessarily wired the same way as everyone else. … We have a tendency not to communicate as well with people around us, to help us move forward. I recommend you set up continuous communications with people [who can help you]."
12:14 Karen: "Surprisingly, I have an opinion on this. … We were taught to be good, work really hard, and you'll get rewarded for it. Unfortunately, most of us women believed that the world really works that way. … As a manager what I've noticed is that women don't ask for what they want." Karen quotes this stat: Only 7% of female college graduates negotiate the offered salary.
"It's important to be your own best marketing officer. When someone recognizes that you did good work, take that as a compliment" before you also say it was a team effort. Karen is speaking some really excellent truth, and this five-or-so segment of the broadcast should be required viewing as orientation for EVERY woman.
12:18 Sharon agrees with Karen, that we do have that hard training to BE NICE. "Don't worry that they'll call you something bad!" Don't be afraid to say I, to take credit. "I'm supposed to be a team player, I'm supposed to sit quietly. It's hard to break through that."
I really like her, and what she's saying. The word that comes to my mind is "pushy"…we have to resolve ourselves to be pushy, because what that really means is "determined.
@AliRazeghi : #PASSWIT Sharon Dooley sounds VERY experienced! It's an inspiration to hear some of her wisdom. TY @sqlpass_de @sqlpass!
12:23 First comment from the audience is Kalen Delaney (@SQLQueen on Twitter): "I've had a lot of success in my career … but I still do findm yself thinking that I have to be nice, and if I'm not nice (and sometimes I'm not), I feel really really bad about it."
Second questioner: What is something you've learned that can help us empower ourselves, to get the confidence to be able to ask? Yanni: Uses a personal board of directors, she runs ideas by them to get their objective opinions. I definitely agree…you need a TEAM to go to and say, what about THIS? And this is definitely not just for women; I've been part of many people's crew (as we call them), men and women. Karen: Act confident, and the feeling will follow. Also great advice.
12:30 @Kendra_Litte: How to prepare to ask for a raise? Sharon: Sit down quietly and outline what I've accomplished since the last pay increase. Yanni: Do your research, do your homework! Dale says to ask your HR department for the salary range for your position, but I think that's a lousy piece of advice. Not only will HR absolutely NOT answer that question, but it gives the impression that you're jobhunting.
12:36 Sean (MY Sean) gets up to say that companies don't understand the value of DBAs, so what do you do to help educate the upper echelon (decision makers) that this personis worth keeping, because not all DBAs are equal. Yanni: I keep a list of my accomplishments.
Nicole Phillips says that you have to prove yourself over and over again. How do you deal with that? Sharon: "I don't think you ever get out of having to prove yourself over and over again. I haven't found that nirvana state." Ohhhhh, this woman is full of #WIN.
Comment by a young lady: It's important to say thank you to managers in appreciation of training, and a summary of what was learned. I rather like that, I think I will.
Comment: What would you do for a Klondike bar? Would you endure a 5 minute awkward conversation? That's all it comes down to. VERY nice.

The professionalism of Orlando Shakespeare Theater was on display Friday at the opening-night performance of "Romeo and Juliet" when an injured actor meant artistic director Jim Helsinger had to take on a role halfway through the show.
The actors kept their cool and didn't let the substitution rattle them in the more-intense second act of Shakespeare's story of doomed teen love.
But under the direction of Thomas Ouellette, this take on "Romeo and Juliet" feels as though it's trying to be all things to all people, making for many entertaining moments but an unsatisfying whole.
Want to draw purists? Have traditional sets and costumes. What about the kids? Throw in modern pop songs. What about those who find it too depressing? Force the comedy at every opportunity.
Yes, comedy. It's easy to forget with the famed tragic ending that there's a lot of humor throughout "Romeo and Juliet," and often bawdy humor at that. But the Shakes doesn't let the audience forget it for a second, working to wring laughter out of even the meekest of lines. Eventually, the comedy stops feeling organic to the characters and takes on the sense of "Somebody thought this would be a good spot for a cucumber-as-phallic-symbol joke."
Even the audience seemed confused by the tone Friday night: A highly dramatic moment in which Friar Laurence slaps a desperate Romeo, on the verge of a breakdown, drew laughs as if it were the "Get a hold of yourself" scene from the old movie "Airplane."
And underneath the crude humor, especially when the young men of the warring Montague and Capulet families are involved, should be an air of danger. These kids — 14th-century Italy's answer to the Hatfields and the McCoys — hate each other. But here, all their sniping and jabbing comes across as just the setup for the next joke.
Music cues are jarring, as well. Though the characters dress in attractive period costumes by Jack A. Smith, they dance to pop diva Pink's "Raise Your Glass" at the fateful party where Romeo and Juliet meet. Later, Pink's mournful "Glitter In the Air" plays while Romeo broods like a young teen soap hunk waiting for his fade to commercial.
As Romeo, Michael Raver does a lot of brooding, and he has over-angsty teen melodrama down pat. Stella Heath brings more heft to the part of Juliet, her girlish coquettishness giving way to nerves of steel.
Anne Hering gives her sympathetic Nurse a jolt of good-time personality. And Geoffrey Kent, as Mercutio, has both comic flair and delivers the Queen Mab monologue with delightful fervor.
But eventually the laughter in the air overpowers any thought of tears. And as with the Montagues and Capulets, when comedy and tragedy fight one another, no one comes out a winner.

OOLTEWAH, Tenn. (AP) Beau Hossler had a 4-under 68 in a second round that featured eight birdies Thursday to tie Grayson Murray atop the leaderboard at the 108th Southern Amateur.
Hossler, from Mission Viejo, California, birdied two of his final three holes at The Honors Course to match Murray's 36-hole total of 138. Hossler will be a sophomore at Texas this fall.
Murray, from Raleigh, North Carolina, had grabbed the first-round lead with a 66. He shot a 72 on Thursday.
Will Starke of Chapin, South Carolina, is one stroke behind the leaders. Trevor Cone of Concord, North Carolina, briefly led Friday before falling two strokes back. Cone golfs for Virginia Tech.
The winner of the 72-hole event earns a spot in the PGA Tour's Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Sometimes we don't know what we want until one day we wake up and it's as clear as night and day... I've recently woken up!
And I want to be involved in the creation, design and development of rides and attractions much like the ones that I saw at Universal Studios Orlando. That's my dream job... And it just so happens that I "think?" the last 10 years of my career have been leading me up to this point.
I've been in the Video and Interactive Industry for the last 10 years. I've designed and developed websites, Interactive CD's, Kiosks, and was the lead programmer for the Canadian Marine Discovery Center (The first virtual museum in Canada) featuring Plasma displays, Alcorn McBride video servers, Lighting controllers, etc. I absolutely loved it! The center has been running now for 4 years and has been running very well.
I have formal education at Sheridan College (when I was in school, Disney was practically funding the animation program with $12 million per year) in Media Arts, Multimedia as well as marketing (over 5 years total post secondary). Most recently I took an electronics systems and integration 13 week program which dealt with wiring, running cables, wire management, HD Displays, etc...
I've also designed and developed a full HD, 7.1 Home theatre in my home. It's a dedicated room, multiple amps, cabling, etc.
What I'm basically saying is that everything I do revolved around designing, building and integrating with all forms of technology and I absolutely love it!
I visited Universal Studios Orlando last week and fell in love. I loved the use of all the technology combined together that I've been piecing together for the last 10 years. This is my passion...
So my questions are this?
Does Universal Orlando design and build their own rides/attractions or is it another company? To go down this road as a career, where should I begin? I have oodles of education and what I feel is very relevant experience but I don't know where to begin?
I don't know what the different types of careers are?
Also, anyone who works in the industry or has experience, please talk to me. I'm so genuinely looking to move in this direction.

Hi there. There are a couple other people on these boards that have more experience than me but I will be the first to respond. You sound like you have quite a bit of experience with the audio visual side of things and it seems that is getting utilized more and more in all the new attractions that are being developed. So at least you have some real-world experience dealing with industry related technologies. A lot of the theme park creative divisions, such as Universal Creative, do still do alot of the actual concept development and design in-house. Typically, however, you wont see Universal physically build a roller coaster or such, that is normally contracted out to various vendors. Since Universal and Disney typically work with their own property, the designs are pretty much up to them...but you have on occasion attractions such as the new Simpsons ride (which of course The Simpsons is the property of Fox). While Universal may have the creative reign, they still have basic "rules" to follow when working with something like this. (any of you feel free to correct me if im mistaken!) I personally work for a scenic and themed environment design and fabrication company. For example, Universal is building a new ride or whatever and the plans call for a certain prop, special effect, or what have you....they would call on a place like that to fabricate and install it. As far as design goes, we mostly do design assist which means basically taking the client's idea, sketch, or vision and turning that into a working drawing to be able to build it. Disney on the other hand might do quite a bit of this in-house, it all depends on the project and what the schedule and budget will allow. There are plenty of these theming subcontractors out there that do the sort of thing you are experienced in as well, like the A/V, lighting, show action equipment etc etc. the list goes on. I highly recommend attending the IAAPA expo this november in Orlando as you can meet many of the companies and people that are involved in this industry.
I hope this helps out a little, and welcome to the boards and we look forward to talking with you more!

Thanks for the response,
You are correct with the Audio/Visual side of things. It's definitely a passion. I was one of those guys who a few years ago would fabricate custom fiberglass sub enclosures in my car, custom panels, etc. But for me it was about the AV integration.
In my current career (Director of Interactive Media) I currently work spending 33% of my time Designing, 33% of my time programming and 33% of my time planning and managing. While I can't get into specifics, I'm currently developing a cross county car dealership data distributions system. Basically, 40" HD LCD's hooked up in dealership showrooms pulling data from a central server.
It's all interesting but the challenge is that it's very business driven. It's all about selling vehicle accessories or tune-ups... and the experience is limited to the screen itself. I once tried convincing decision makers to integrate a "mister" into a television screen with a motion sensor. When someone walks by it would "mist them" from above and get their attention to make them look at the screen. It never worked because "corporate" didn't approve... <sigh>
I want to be part of things that are fun! Marine education centers, exhibits, places that rely on interactive displays and kiosks... perhaps even the "pre-ride" area at amusement parks. When I was in the "pre-loading" area for the Shrek in 4D ride, I was thinking that part would be pretty exciting! Computers hooked up to video servers, controlling robotics through RS-232 Ports! Good fun! Rather than the rides themselves, I think I enjoy the "pre-ride" experience more if that makes any sense?
Once again, any other comments would be appreciated. I also apologize for my excitement, It may come across that I'm a bit nuts, but I'm very excited to have come across this resource. It's been a long time coming... I'm feeling very energized!
Also, I'll be booking my registration, flight and hotel in the next little while.
thanks for the suggestion icandrawem2.

Your experience with the misters is typical of what happens anywhere. I could pretty much guarentee that anything you see out in the parks has had compromises made. You just have to not get too defensive and decide what the core experience is and what is absolutely essential to that core experience (some things hurt a lot to cut, but cutting them won't kill the experience). It's possible that corporate may have decided, "Not everyone likes to get spritzed, and the moisture might mess up electrical systems, building upkeep, etc., etc." Which is a valid perspective... But what was the core of that idea? To get people's attention... so then you can go another route to find something less obtrusive, lower cost, etc., etc. that would do the same thing and draw attention.
I would second icandrawem and advocate that you go to IAPAA if you possibly can. A lot of design firms go to IAPAA and send friendly representatives who love to talk about their processes and what they do, and so you can talk to a broad span of companies at once, maybe find areas of fabrication/creation that you never thought of, find out what they look for in an employee, etc. The firms that you immediately think of when you think of designing themed attractions may not necessarily be the best places to get the "hands on" work that you seem to enjoy... and I also know that, for example, Disney has groups of people who do hands-on work of designing and installing systems who aren't part of Imagineering... but they pick up all sorts of interesting projects. All it takes is making the right contact with the right person who says, "yes, I do that work..." or "I know a guy at the other company who works on that..." Themed design seems to be a small world. I got the chance to hobnob at the last IAPAA and get introduced around, and it really surprised me what a tight web the industry is... If you can get into conversations and find kindred spirits, then you have a foot in the door already...

Thanks for the insight Holly and I totally agree about the compromises. Client said they wanted people to see the screen and the challenge is that it was at an outdoors event where everyone was competing for attention. Of course, everyone else makes it louder and louder to compete with the neighboring booth. My suggestion, if someone walks by, let's mist them... Afterall, it is a "Water Sport" exhibit at a boat show! I thought it was quite fitting!
But much like you said, people can get offended, etc. It reminds me of the Jaws Ride at Universal. At the end, there was a 10-11yo kid who said "I didn't want to get wet..." Of course, the fellow who was the tour guide looked at him and said... "You went on the jaws boat ride, on the water, and didn't want to get wet?" to which the rest of the boat laughed. I'm sure they get it all the time and need to poke fun at it.
I'll definitely be at the IAPAA conference. I just wish it wasn't 4 months away! Oh well, it will allow me research all the vendors before I arrive.
Thanks again!

HA! I just found this!
That's me on the left
and it just so happens that Alcorn McBride is in Orlando too. Maybe I'll get some insight from them and pay a visit while I'm down!

Great idea
If you know some people at Alcorn it would probably pay off do to the ol': Who else do you know at the show that might be interested in talking about audio/visual production? Or phrased differently
but it's a good way to meet new people...
And of course, if there is anyone from the boards that you want to meet, give a shout closer to IAAPA time, and people can let you know if they are coming or not.

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone from Alcorn. The equipment was already selected and purchased before I started working with it (In fact, being on the alcorn website was a surprise for me!) I was actually looking up something different in Google and it took me there!

ALFRED, N.Y. – The No. 12 Salisbury University defense forced five turnovers, blocked two punts and limited No. 22 Alfred University to just 155 yards of offense as the Sea Gulls shutout the Saxons, 69-0, at Merrill Field Saturday.
SU (6-0, 4-0 Empire 8), which earned its first six-game winning streak since 2007, also recorded its first shutout since topping Becker College, 63-0, on Oct. 25, 2008.
Salisbury received touchdowns from six different players and amassed 392 yards, sending preseason Empire 8 favorite Alfred (4-2, 2-2) to its second loss of the season.
The Gulls got on the scoreboard just 6:23 into the game on their second drive when Ross Flanigan took it in on an 8-yard rush to punctuate an 11-play, 64-yard march.
Salisbury recovered a muffed snap by AU punter Eric Rockwood on the Saxons' 11-yard line to setup one of Dan Griffin's career-high-tying four rushing touchdowns on the day. Griffin made it 14-0, capping a short drive with a 2-yard plunge five seconds into the second quarter.
Alex Akinseye pounced on his second fumble of the season after Austin Dwyer returned the kickoff to the Alfred 45.
With the ball sitting on the AU 37-yard line, Griffin hit Doug Ticse on a post route for the first of his two passing scores to put the Gulls up, 21-0, with 13:17 to play in the half.
The Gulls added to the lead thanks, in part, to their first blocked punt since the 2008 season. Brandon Lemon got a hand on Rockwood's kick from the Alfred 6 and it was returned to the 2-yard line prior to Griffin sneaking in to push the advantage to 28-0 with 3:48 left before the break.
Salisbury wasn't done, though, as Jamey McClendon scooped up another Saxons' fumble at the AU 24 and Griffin later scampered 8 yards to the end zone for the fifth score of the half.
Griffin added his final rushing touchdown of the day – his second from 1 yard – to move the lead to 42-0 with just 3:54 gone in the third.
Greg Stanton picked up Alfred's third fumble and Griffin made the Saxons pay with a 15-yard strike to Tyler Curley. Juma Richards rushed 38 yards to the Alfred 15 on the previous play.
From there, Salisbury scored three more times on a 35-yard pass from backup quarterback Joey Jones to James White, a 21-yard run by Michael Coppenhaver and a blocked punt and score by Cody Schecter.
Jonathan Briscoe rushed nine times for a game-high 51 yards while Griffin had 31 yards on 11 carries to go with the four touchdowns. He also was 3-for-7 for 95 yards with the two touchdowns through the air.
Ticse led the receiving corps with two catches for 80 yards.
Schecter and McClendon tallied eight tackles apiece, including five solo stops. Matt Leon recovered the last of AU's four fumbles and Curtis Ford picked off a pass at the Salisbury 2 to thwart the Saxons' only scoring threat early in the fourth quarter.
Alfred, which posted just 40 yards passing on the day, was led by Tyler DeRosa. DeRosa had 10 rushing attempts for 46 yards. Quarterback Tim Secky was 3-for-7 before giving way to T.J. Kilcarr, who went 0-for-3 with the interception.
Mike Raplee finished with a game-high 10 tackles for Alfred.
SU is back on the road Saturday at Hartwick College. Kickoff at Wright Stadium is slated for 1 p.m.

Here's another strange problem i'm encountering.
My stages are made at resolution of 720 X 1280
Am trying to full screen it but that causes stretching.
Changing the window size under action to 1920 X 1280 (with extended window) causes the stage be pushed to the left side. Any way to centre the stage?
It also causes the game to go crazy which does not happen on preview or non window size changed compiles
Eg, all explosions are stuck to one particular object instead of the correct instance object.
All enemies not taking damage. Etc
Please ignore this. It was caused by my own stupidity XD
Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

University of Vermont
UVM Police Services
Welcome to the Campus Security Authority (CSA) Information Portal
Certain employees, known as Campus Security Authorities (CSA), -have a legal obligation to file a report with University Police Services of suspected criminal activity using the Campus Security Authority Reporting Form to ensure statistical inclusion of all crimes specified by the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act ("Clery Act") in the University's Annual Security Report when those crimes occur on or near University Property, including on-campus property, property immediately adjacent to the campus, and off-campus property owned or controlled by the University.
As outlined in the University's Campus Security Authority Operating Procedure, CSAs are:
- Members of the University of Vermont Department of Police Services;
- Any individual responsible for security who is not a member of the UVM Department of Police Services (for example, individuals responsible for monitoring entrances to buildings or specified areas are responsible for security); and
- A University official who has significant responsibility for student and campus activities, including, but not limited to, student housing, student discipline and campus judicial proceedings, coaches and coaching staff, advisors to recognized student organizations.
If you are unsure of whether you are a CSA, please contact your dean, director or department head, or contact Lianne M. Tuomey, Chief/Director of Police Services at firstname.lastname@example.com.
If an alleged victim wishes to file a police report, please advise and assist them to contact UVM Police Services directly at (802) 656-3473. If you believe there is an immediate or ongoing threat to the safety of an individual(s), always call 911.
Note: Filing a CSA Reporting Form does not take the place of contacting UVM Police Services and filing a police report. These forms are used to help to inform whether a timely warning or emergency notification to the campus community is warranted; to allow Police Services to optimize the safety of our campus community; to ensure proper statistical inclusion of reported crimes in the University's Annual Report, in compliance with federal law.

This might have been their easiest schedule in a long time. Broncos, Ravens and Giants are the only decent teams we are playing this year, everyone else pretty much stinks.

Can't get enough of cycling when you're off the bike? We know the feeling, so every month we can't wait to check out what's going on in the world of cycling journalism. This month we thought we'd share a few of the great stories that you might have missed in the latest cycling magazines – including ones that you can only find in print, but are worth the price of admission.
First up is a fascinating story about the Bordeaux-Paris race from 1963, won by Tom Simpson. Culled from the archives of their sister publication Cycling Weekly, the story is full of amazing race day photos that tell the tale of this 500km long former Classic race. Riders started the race at 2am, and stopped partway through to change into their race kits on the side of the road! The strangest part of the race was that for the last 250km, the riders were paced by motorized "dernys" (gas powered scooters) – a bit like a track race out on the open road!
Next up, from the latest Bicycling magazine, is a story of a quest to get an interview with the legendary Eddy Merkcx. Apparently Merckx is still tough to catch up to, just like he was in his racing days, but this profile about the present-day Merckx reveals a man that is supremely comfortable in his role as cycling legend, yet who rarely looks back at his racing career or seeks out acclaim for his accomplishments.
In the November issue of Velo magazine, there's a great interview with everyone's favorite hardman cyclist, Jens Voigt, but the article that caught our eye was the ranking of the top 10 hardmen of the post-wart era (I guess you have to rule out those early cyclists who rode unpaved roads with no derailleurs – by default they would probably win any hardman contest). Our favorite tale of adversity overcome is about Fiorenzo Magni, who broke his collarbone in the middle of the 1956 Giro d'Italia (the final race of his career), yet who refused to give up even though he had to have a strip of innertube attached to his stem to stabilize his bike – the other end of which he held with his teeth!
Finally, for our fellow mountain bike riders out there, we dug the short story, "The Picashaw Pedaler", in issue #159 of Dirt Rag magazine. The winner of their Literature Contest, this spooky tale of a sleep-deprived 24-hour racer who starts seeing a figure in the woods strikes home for anyone who's ridden all out through the night. Was it just a hallucination.. or was it something else?

Quick TNs from a business dinner at a NY's Smith & Wollensky restaurant.
Beringer Napa cabernet 1992
WOTN. Very faint nose of dark berries and earth. Purple color withy a slight bricking at the rim. Medium body, 14.1% abv. Black currants, earth and some glycerine. Very smooth and almost creamy. Very easy to drink. Tannins fully resolved, with the oak nicely integrated and providing a warm vanilla background. Medium/long finish. Very, very nice.
San Leonardo 1999
Bordeaux blend from Trentino, Northern Italy. 60% cabernet sauvignon, 30% cabernet franc, 10% merlot. Nose of compoted red fruit. Medium/full body, 13% abv. Very dry, with hints of smoke and black pepper. Slightly tannic. Wood is noticeable, the wine is aged for 24 months in barriques. Very good. Medium finish.
Marcarini barolo 2001.
Great nose of flowers and wet earth. Beautiful ruby red color. Medium body, with chalky tannins. Cherries, flowers, tobacco and earth. Very nice but not nearly ready to drink. Others at the table enjoyed it more, I believe the wines needs at least five years or more to start showing its best. Very good future.
Trapiche Vina Jose Blanco malbec 2003
100% single vineyard malbec. Very darp purple color. Aroma of super ripe berries and caramel. Very full body, 14.5% abv. Extremely sweet and thick. Barossa meets Mendoza. Soft, jammy, not tannic. This bottle showed rather ready to drink. Almost a desert wine. Flamboyant.
Astrales Ribera del Duero 2001
Tempranillo from Ribera. Initially super tight, with nothing on the nose. It opened up only after two hours from opening, very slowly, exhibiting typical dusty cherry aromas. Medium/full body, 14% abv. It eventually revealed very nice crushed cherry fruit, with classy minerality and oak still to be better integrated. This wine needs two to three years at least. Very good future.

Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) beat the Street late Tuesday with a 6.6% rise in fourth-quarter profits as the technology heavyweight's revenue soared 36% despite another drop in the average cost per click.
Continue Reading Below
Shares of Google, which have been under pressure of late, jumped about 4% in after-hours action on the results.
The company said it earned $2.89 billion, or $8.62 a share, last quarter, compared with a profit of $2.71 billion, or $8.22 a share, in the same period a year earlier.
Excluding one-time items, Google said it earned $10.65 a share, up from $9.50 a share the year before. That non-GAAP figure appeared to top the Street's view of $10.42.
Google said its consolidated revenue rose 36% year-over-year to $14.42 billion. Analysts had been calling for revenue of $12.34 billion.
Google said its aggregate paid clicks increased 24% year-over-year and by 9% from the third quarter of 2012.
However, the average cost per click, which is the amount of money advertisers pay Google, fell 6% from the year before, marking the fifth consecutive quarterly drop. The average cost per click gained 2% from the third quarter.
Analysts have been scrambling to mark down their estimates on Google, which late last week warned Wall Street that analysts may not be accounting for the company's December sale of its Motorola Home business to Arris Group for about $2.35 billion. Google said it plans to report sales and profits for the division as "discontinued operations."
"We ended 2012 with a strong quarter," Google CEO Larry Page said in a statement. "In today's multi-screen world we face tremendous opportunities as a technology company focused on user benefit. It's an incredibly exciting time to be at Google."
Google said its traffic acquisition costs, which highlights the chunk of revenue shared with the company's partners, jumped 25.7% year-over-year to $3.08 billion. TAC as a percentage of revenue stood at 25% in the fourth quarter, compared with 24% the year before.
Meanwhile, Motorola Mobile revenue stood at $1.51 billion last quarter, representing 11% of consolidated revenue.
Some analysts have expressed concern about Google's rising costs as the company has pushed into new endeavors like smartphones and tablets. Google said its operating expenses climbed 42.3% to $4.81 billion last quarter. That represents 33% of the company's revenue, compared with 32% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2011.
Google employed 53,861 full-time employees as of the end of 2012, including more than 11,113 in Motorola Mobile, compared with 53,546 at the end of the third quarter. Google acquired Motorola Mobility in 2011 for $12.4 billion.
The report comes after Google's weaker-than-expected third-quarter results were released hours ahead of schedule in October due to human error at its financial printer.
Wall Street has soured a bit on Google in recent days, driving its stock down in four consecutive sessions including a 0.23% dip during regular trading on Tuesday.
But shares of Mountain View, Calif.-based Google soared 4.32% to $733.26 in extended trading on Tuesday.

Himalayan North
Though the Himalayas stretch across the entire northern border of India, this region covers only those states of India that lie on the northwestern section of this mountain range.
Other destinations
After the heat and chaos in the big cities of the Plains, the Indian Himalayas make a relaxing change. Some foreign travelers make visiting this region their sole purpose for coming to India, and it is a popular destination for Indians as well. The Himalayan North, being the abode of the gods and the origin of Hinduism's holy rivers, is one of the most ancient travel destinations in the country. Pilgrims have been visiting this place for centuries.
The British, conquering India before air conditioning, found themselves defeated by the Indian summer. As a result, they had to take refuge in hill stations to escape the heat. This region, because of its proximity to Delhi, had the largest concentration of hill stations. The largest among these, Shimla, was the summer capital of British India. Shimla and other cities like Mussoorie and Dalhousie still retain their charming colonial atmosphere.
The valley of Kashmir used to be the honeymoon destination of choice for those who could afford it, but terrorism made it too unsafe.
Hindi/Urdu is understood throughout the region either as a primary or secondary language. English is widely understood, especially in the more touristed parts.
Get in
The Himalayan North is well connected to the Plains by bus. Haridwar is the highest place that is accessible by train.
Get around
Bus: This is the main way to get around the Himalayan north, the only choice in many places. The winding roads and steep slopes make for some nerve wracking moments; but the views more than make up for it.
Train: Being a mountainous region there are very few rail lines. However, there is a "toy train" service that connects Kalka and Shimla. In its day, this single gauge line was a remarkable engineering feat, but now it makes for a slow and beautiful tourist route.
Stay safe
Get out

Babe says: It looks like S, it smells like S, it tastes like S
That's what she called her friend and said, when she first started drinking green smoothies. (I am not recommending this as a method of winning your friends over to the habit. But that's what she said.) It's what she announced to 100 people in Riverton Friday night.
Still, I think it's better than compressing whole leaves of kale and chard and swallowing them as fast as possible–minimally chewed–which is what you are seeing here, with my new friend Babe, the wisecracking massage therapist.

Hi Robyn,
It's Alisa. Just wondering if you could come and help us out in Richfield. We're planning a health and wellness fair for May 21st. We would love to have the Sun Warrior people come as well. What do you think?
okay, and i'm still questioning my feelings about this experience. was i grossed out, thinking babe was a rock star, or wondering why… she was hilarious. one thing i know for sure, i'm really glad i didn't volunteer 🙂
hey Robyn have you ever tried making corn tortillas?! I have this organic corn from azure and was planning on trying to figure out how to make tortillas from finely ground flour (in my nutrimill) come to find out MASA is special and I can treat it myself at home (there's no way I'm paying to buy a gluten free safe organic masa- it woul dbe too pricey) anyone ever treated with the calcium hydroxide? is there a healthy way to make this work? like plain LIME?! anyone?! THANKS
Do you have Nourishing Traditions, Lala? She tells in there how to do it… if you don't I would be glad to get it to you. Just let me know.
Just found your blog-love it!

Jim Henson's Muppet Adventure No. 1: Chaos at the Carnival (Commodore 64) review
"If you're a seeker of esoterica or a man with a penchant for playing poorly made license titles, then Jim Henson's Muppet Adventure: Chaos at the Carnival is just the ticket. It's the crème de la crème of awful. Most wouldn't expect much of a Muppet game, maybe mediocrity at best, but I'm sure few would expect to be at the very bottom of the gaming totem pole. It's a license title with hardly any elements that attach it to its source material, loaded with just about every gaming flaw y..."

Welcome to Channeling Revised! We've doubled the length of the video to get at what i REALLY wanted to get at in the original. Thing was, i wasn't able to translate the information in this way just yet, so i added a bit on later down the road to say more.
In this lesson, we talk about one of the methods to communicating with beings of consciousness both higher, and lower than ourselves. We also talk about animal communication and how you yourself can also do it.
I'd especially like to thank Joshua H Metz for doing some animation work! He might be helping out on future lessons, which is quite exciting 😀

Look, look! Artwork for my book Baneblade! This atmospheric piece of the eponymous tanks in action was created by Adam Tooby, and a fine job he's done too. I first saw this some time ago, and have been itching to show you ever since, now I can! I've also been given permission to reveal a little of the plot of the book, hooray! Here goes:
Imperial Guard fight Blood Axe Orks across a treacherous world!
Colaron Bannick is a young officer of noble birth. Posted to hostile Kalidar – a place wracked by deadly storms, covered in choking dust and troubled by bizarre psychic phenomenon – his heroic actions in his first engagement see him seconded to join the crew of the ancient Baneblade, Mars Triumphant, where he faces a terrifying enemy…
Although the story is set at the time of the Macharian Crusade, the war on Kalidar is not a part of this grand campaign (read Bill King's Angel of Fire for that), instead the book shows an army group stretched to the limit as resources are siphoned off to fuel the Warmaster's conquests.
In a parallel story depicted in a series of flashbacks, we also see why Bannick fled his comfortable existence as a privileged nobleman for a hard life in the Guard.
Expect big tanks, big battles and the will of the Emperor and the Omnissiah done by man and machine against terrible odds.
Baneblade will be released in April next year. In fact, you can preorder it on Amazon already.

Emergency: A One-Man Show by Obie award-winner Daniel Beaty
Date: February 18, 2009 Location: Agnes Flanagan Chapel
Agnes Flanagan Chapel
Daniel Beaty's provocative play, Emergency, explores the effects of slavery with a surprisingly fresh and quirky approach. An award-winning artist, Beaty portrays a cast of 40 characters, including a homeless man, a scientist, a Republican business executive, a street vendor and 11-year-old boy from the projects who all respond to the phenomenon.
Through the characters' individual responses and their varied testimonies on identity and personal freedom, Emergency weaves a stirring commentary on modern black life.
