Beloved Sesame Street Characters to Promote Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Consumption to Kids
Sesame Workshop and Produce Marketing Association joined the Partnership for a Healthier America to help make healthier choices easier for families
WASHINGTON, DC—First Lady Michelle Obama today announced that Sesame Workshop and the Produce Marketing Association (PMA) joined the Partnership for a Healthier America (PHA) in a two-year agreement to help promote fresh fruit and vegetable consumption to kids, making those healthy choices a little easier for parents and families to make.
The agreement allows PMA's community of growers, suppliers and retailers to take advantage of the strength and influence of the Sesame Street brand without a licensing fee, using characters like Big Bird, Elmo and Abby Cadabby to help deliver messages about fresh fruits and vegetables. Sesame Street characters may be on produce in stores as early as mid-2014.
"Just imagine what will happen when we take our kids to the grocery store, and they see Elmo and Rosita and the other Sesame Street Muppets they love up and down the produce aisle," said First Lady Michelle Obama today. "Imagine what it will be like to have our kids begging us to buy them fruits and vegetables instead of cookies, candy and chips. That's what this new collaboration between Sesame Workshop and the Produce Marketing Association is all about – showing our kids that healthy food can be fun and that fruits and vegetables don't just make us feel good, they taste good too.
In her remarks, the First Lady referenced a recent study published in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine conducted by researchers at Cornell University. Researchers gave kids a choice between eating an apple, a cookie, or both and the vast majority of the kids chose the cookies. But when the researchers put Elmo stickers on the apples and let the kids choose again, nearly double the number of kids went for the apple.
"It's no secret that many parents have a hard time getting kids excited about eating their fruits and vegetables," said PHA CEO Lawrence A. Soler. "Today's commitment helps all of us promote increased fruit and vegetable consumption, and gives parents and families a powerful, positive tool to help kids get excited about eating healthier foods."
PHA works with the private sector and PHA Honorary Chair First Lady Michelle Obama to broker meaningful private sector commitments to ending the childhood obesity epidemic.
As part of its commitment to PHA, Sesame Workshop will:
- Work with PMA to enable PMA and its community of growers, suppliers and retailers to utilize the strength and influence of the Sesame Street brand and characters to deliver a message of encouragement for young children and their families to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables;
- Provide a license to PMA free of charge for two years following launch of the program to make approved uses of the Sesame Street Muppet characters and elements of Sesame Workshop's Healthy Habits for Life initiative when used to promote fresh fruit and vegetable consumption;
- Enable PMA, through the license agreement, to provide access to, and oversee use of the Sesame Workshop assets by the PMA community; and,
- Create a "produce promotion toolkit" and style guide to facilitate use of the Sesame Workshop assets in promotional activities.
"Sesame Workshop has long been committed to the health and well-being of children through our longstanding Healthy Habits for Life initiative—since 2004, we have been integrating messages about healthy food choices and exercise into Sesame Street, the television program, in our community outreach and on our other off-air activities," said H. Melvin Ming, President and CEO, Sesame Workshop. "We are proud to work with the Produce Marketing Association and Partnership for a Healthier America to continue this important work."
PMA will:
- Review all requests by its growers, suppliers and retailers for Sesame Workshop assets for use in the promotion of fresh fruits and vegetables and permit use only on eligible products and according to the terms of the license agreement between Sesame Workshop and PMA;
- Provide assistance and widely promote the opportunity to participate in the Sesame Workshop licensing program; and
- Share with PHA the results over a two-year period from the Performance Start Date, with metrics including number of products given Sesame Workshop assets through the program, number of companies participating and estimated sales impact.
"One of the key challenges we face is competing for share of mind and share of plate," said Jan DeLyser, vice president of marketing for the California Avocado Commission and immediate past chairman of PMA's board of directors. "Other food marketers – companies who have seemingly endless budgets enabling them to position and sell their products, especially to kids – are steep competition. As a parent whose kids grew up with the Sesame Street characters, I'm thrilled to be a part of a program that will give the produce industry additional marketing opportunities for our naturally healthful products. The power of the Sesame Street brand is undeniable, especially given the trust parents have in it."
The Partnership for a Healthier America (PHA) is devoted to working with the private sector to ensure the health of our nation's youth by solving the childhood obesity crisis. In 2010, PHA was created in conjunction with – but independent from – First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move! effort. PHA is a nonpartisan nonprofit organization that is led by some of the nation's most respected health and childhood obesity experts. PHA brings together public, private and nonprofit leaders to broker meaningful commitments and develop strategies to end childhood obesity. Most important, PHA ensures that commitments made are commitments kept by working with unbiased, third parties to monitor and publicly report on the progress our partners are making. For more information about PHA, please visit www.aHealthierAmerica.org and follow PHA on Twitter @PHAnews.
Produce Marketing Association is the leading trade association representing companies from every segment of the global produce and floral supply chain. PMA helps members grow by providing connections that expand business opportunities and increase sales and consumption. For more information, visit www.pma.com.
Sesame Workshop is the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street, the landmark television program that reaches millions of children every day in more than 150 countries. The Workshop's mission is to use the educational power of media to help children everywhere reach their highest potential. Delivered through a variety of platforms, Sesame Workshop develops research-based content – including television programs, books, games, mobile apps and community engagement initiatives – that supports early childhood learning, helps prepare children for school, and addresses developmental needs. The Workshop's programs are tailored to the needs of specific regions and focus on topics that help young children and families develop critical skills for lifelong learning.

My Trip to MOMA's Design and the Modern Kitchen Exhibit
Counter Space: Design and the Modern Kitchen has been up at New York City's Museum of Modern Art since September, but it took me until this past weekend to finally see it. For a cook and a lover of thoughtful design, this exhibit goes deep, so I ended up going back a second time in order to take it all in.
There are gadgets from a c.1940 six-sided cookie cutter to a set of 1920s ultra-modern sauce pots. One of my favorite parts of the collection is a fascinating display of WWII propaganda posters encouraging British citizens to plant gardens and eat more rabbit. (Those who follow me on twitter may have noticed me tweeting each and every one of them last Saturday morning, and I also include them in the gallery of this post.)
In case you forgot you were in an art museum, the exhibit also features an area called "Kitchen Sink Dramas" which honors the fact that since the 1960s, kitchens have grown into a rich subject for artistic expression.
The exhibition is divided into three sections. "The New Kitchen" covers design before World War II, presenting the kitchen almost as a hygienic laboratory space, though some, like the Frankfurt kitchen at the center of the exhibit, are quite beautiful. The Frankfurt Kitchen is one of 10,000 manufactured for public-housing complexes in Germany in the 1920s as part of a plan to modernize the city of Frankfurt. The second area, "Visions of Plenty" looks at postwar kitchens, from the colorful materials and fully-automated appliances of the 1950s to the more environmentally conscious design of the 1970s.
Finally, the last section explores art that portrays the kitchen. With photographs, prints and films by artists like Andy Warhol and Cindy Sherman, "Kitchen Sink Dramas" examines the kitchen as artistic subject, and how it has been used to address larger themes of politics, economics and gender.
The glass case of kitchen gadgets is filled with items I know sat in my grandmothers' kitchen drawers. There are even some items, like the Tupperware popsicle mold, that I remember in my own childhood kitchen, in all its BPA glory.
The posters are really striking. With the state of the world as it is at the moment — MOMA has a giant collection box in its entrance for the Red Cross's efforts in Japan — I found myself staring at these posters and being transposed to another time, when the world's tumult was based in a different kind of suffering. Or is it really that different? Thrifty aesthetics and a labor-saving ethos never grows old; it's about how to get enough food to eat and maintain daily life in the face of combat and rations. The exhibit really is a coming together of art, history, politics, sex and of course, food. Life.
If you haven't been, it's worth a trip. If you live outside of NYC, you can view much of the exhibit online on MOMA's Design and the Modern Kitchen website.

Eight Tennessee sites have joined the National Register of Historic Places, including Crockett Tavern in Morristown, just down the road from my hometown. Davy Crockett's family moved to the site when the famous frontiersman was still a boy. The present structure is a replica built in the 1950s, during the Crockett craze whipped up by the Disney series.
I'm ashamed to say that I haven't been there yet, but I'm going this year, as soon as they re-open for the spring. It's not that uncommon for history buffs to spend years driving all over the country to visit sites and let the ones in their own backyards fall through the cracks, but the fact that I've gone this long without crossing Crockett Tavern off my bucket list is downright scandalous.
Also, the East Tennessee Historical Society is hosting a Brown Bag Lecture on Jan. 16 at noon about an interesting archaeological site in downtown Knoxville: the home of Peter Kern, a remarkable guy who turned a run of bad luck into a fortune in the food business. Kern was a German immigrant who settled in Georgia and signed up to fight for the Confederacy. Wounded in Virginia, he went back home to recover. While returning to the front by train, he ended up in Knoxville just as the city fell into Union hands. Stuck in town for the duration of the war, he made the most of his situation and established a bakery and ice cream parlor. Kern's bread business was quite a success (you can still buy baked goods with the Kern's label here in East Tennessee) and he stayed in Knoxville, running successfully for mayor in 1890.
So on behalf of my fellow East Tennesseans to whichever Yankee soldier managed to knock Kern out of the action—thanks for all the awesome sandwiches.

IAWM Welcomes Pat and Chris Whiteby Tom Runge • September 15, 2006 Share:
The Indianapolis Association of Wabash Men (IAWM) officially welcomed President Pat and Chris White to Indianapolis Thursday evening, September 14, 2006. The IAWM-sponsored reception was held in the auditorium of the Indianapolis law firm Barnes and Thornburg in downtown Indianapolis.
A large crowd greeted the Whites and provided a warm, Wabash welcome. IAWM board member Tim Oliver '91 served as the evening's emcee. Tim introduced President White noting that Tim felt Pat had really grasped the essence of Wabash in the few short months he'd been on campus.
President White told the crowd that he and Chris were excited about being a part of the Wabash community. He went on to say that he found Wabash students to be outstanding young men of integrity and he fervently believes Wabash educates young men to go out and change the world. The challenge ahead, Pat noted, is to continue the effort to become better each and every day.
Many thanks go to Paul Jefferson '92 and Bob Grand '78, both members of the Barnes and Thornburg firm, for their support of the event. Thanks as well to Tim Oliver '91, the evening organizer and emcee, and to David Waldman '93, the current IAWM board president.

Quote from: OldEric on March 02, 2013, 12:00:52 amI understand there was a fatality in the Ravine today. A young HMC climber that I knew - wonderful guy. Very sad..In a previous thread you wrote: "Ironically Odell's and South have "Low" conditions today (Sunday). But LL could say the sun is going to rise tomorrow and everyone would jump down his throat." See "who will go to climb in huntington ravine sunday?" in general climbingMaybe I don't use the good aproach to sensibilise people and I am sorry for that. And we can't save every body, some accident are pure badluck. but it is really what I try to do.It is very sad.
But I think in the case where there is a serious or fatal accident it should by common sense/courtesy to not start analyzing - not start with the "I would never/I would always/I would have done this that or the other thing" immediately in the same thread. And I am not addressing this just to you but you have set yourself up as a magnet.
Side note: Cut the pissing match out on this thread. Not cool.

This book is the result of a huge amount of scholarly labour, is comprehensively thought through, clearly and scrupulously presented, and genuinely useful to Dickens scholars. Dickenss Working Notes for Dombey and Son is more accessible than the equivalent portion of Harry Stone's expensive standard publication, Dickens's Working Notes (1987), and superior in the quality and detail of the presentation, and the useful commentary, both to Stone and the various paperback editions of this pivotal novel in Dickens's career. Above all, it uses the possibilities of digital technology to very good effect: it makes an important advance on existing critical editions in its representation of Dickens's creative process.
Prof. Adrian Poole, University of Cambridge
This critical edition of the working notes for Dombey and Son (1848) is ideal for readers who wish to know more about Charles Dickenss craft and creativity. Drawing on the authors manuscript in the Victoria and Albert Museum, Londonand containing hyperlinked facsimilesDickenss Working Notes for Dombey and Son offers a new digital transcription with a fresh commentary by Tony Laing. Unique and innovative, this is the only edition to make Dickenss working methods visible. A special feature of our html edition is the high quality of images, which enable the reader to zoom in and out of the manuscript with ease and view small sections of the facsimile or transcription with a single touch.
John Mullan has called Dombey and Son Dickenss 'first great novel.' Set amid the coming of the railways, it tells the story of a powerful mantypical of the commercial and banking magnates of the periodand the effect he has on his family and those around him. Laing presents the worksheets and other materials (transcribed for the first time) that together grew into the novel. Reading the book alongside this edition of the notes enlarges the understanding of Dickenss art among teachers, students, researchers and Dickens enthusiasts.
As cultural tastes shift from print to digital, Dickenss Working Notes helps preserve Dickenss work for the future. The magnifying and linking functions of the edition mean that the notes are more easily and usefullynot to mention accessiblyexhibited here than elsewhere. Laing gives present-day readers the chance not only to recapture the effect of serial publication but also to gain greater insight into the making of a work which, by general agreement and Dickenss own admission, has a special place in his development as a novelist.

"Perfect Sense" I typically hate romantic movies, but the premise of this one was great. I highly recommend it. I also watched "Kick Ass" What a good movie I really enjoyed it. "Shutter Island" is also an incredible movie. Next up on my list is "Drive," and "Attack the Block."

I just watched The Thing
Some 15 minutes in, I realised this is the exact same setting as a short story by Peter Watts I read, named The Things. Which in turn is based on an older movie I never saw, called The Thing again.
The shortstory is really cool, because it tells the story of an alien life form stranded in between hostile human monstrosities from the view of the alien (you can read it, it won't spoil the movie much).
The movie lacks this cool aspect. It is a pretty straight forward "the monster is one of us" horror flick, where the cast gets killed off one by one from the humans viewpoint.
This does not make it bad. The monster(s) is scary, it is fun trying to figure out who is evil, because there are telltale signs which you can look out for.
It really is more a horror movie, than a scifi thing even though there are aliens. It has none of the cheapness and unintended comedy you would see in a AlienVsPredator movie for example.
The only problem is, that it is made pretty clear who our main character is from the very beginning. And she has the typical death immunity which comes with that role of course.
The other guys are all bearded and packed in warm clothing, so frankly I had a hard time telling them apart.

A Dangerous Method with a friend in a theatre full of elderly people (it was like the senior home decided to have a group trip ). The movie was weird, the audience was weird, and my friend was being weird so it was just a hilarious experience We originally went to see it cause we're interested in Freud and Jung, and I like Michael Fassbender and Viggo Mortensen a lot, but we got a bit more than what we bargained for... I personally like A History of Violence, the other David Cronenberg movie I've seen, a lot more. If it weren't for the weird factors I mentioned above I would've found the movie a lot less funny, lol.
I think my next film's probably going to be Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, I finally got my hands on it! Excited!

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are an amazing combo, and this movie is pure genius. Every character is detrimental to the plot and the actors do such a sublime job of portraying the leads of a dark and gritty world.
The music is memorable and each musical number plays with the characters and their emotions at the time. The best number by far is when Todd and Turpin perform 'Pretty Women'. Depp's expressions during the entire song shows the entirety of Sweeney Todd's feelings. He's damned talented and has a surprisingly magnificent voice.

Just came back from watching Red Tails. I came away feeling like I just watched a TV movie. There was a serious lack of sound. With planes zooming around, guns blazing, things exploding, there should have been sounds to immerse you into the action. Instead I felt as if I was hearing the action on my TV at home. I was hoping it was just the theater, but since Stig said the same thing a couple posts above, it's not the theater, it's the movie. How did Lucasfilm let the sound be like this?
The story was OK. It seemed to be presented through a series of vignettes of things that actually happened to these guys. I will most likely watch this movie again when it comes on the TV. I'm just glad it isn't another Pearl Harbor.
My friend actually stated "This is the quietest war movie I've ever heard."

I watched Titanic yesterday. I lost count on how many times I watched that movie. I even know all the lines. B-But I only watched it because it was on TV at the time.
Still, I can't help but really like the movie, specially because there's so much water, and it was all real water too, no CG (obviously, 1997).
I still can't agree to that ending, though. There would have been enough space for both of them if Rose moved her fat ass a little. Oh well, I guess it wouldn't have had the same impact, haha.

Dempsey drops newest rap single
U.S. star Clint Dempsey's latest foray into rap music dropped on Wednesday, so he can add another feather in his cap as he rides the wave of his team's 2-1 win over Ghana in its 2014 World Cup opener.
It has taken the 31-year-old more than 30 seconds to gain recognition in the rap game. The 13-track album, entitled "The Redux," was done with his friend, rapper XO and fellow Nacogdoches,Texas, native, producer Mike Chehade. It is Dempsey's second attempt at rhyming, after his first, "Don't Tread," was released in 2006 with little critical acclaim.
"We were just having fun with it, and it ended up being an album," Dempsey told The Wall Street Journal.
Chehade told WSJ that the record could help make the U.S. team seem a little more intimidating.
"We're not known as a soccer powerhouse -- we're almost known for being soft. But Clint has this edge," he told the newspaper. "He'll just call you sometimes and start free-styling - he doesn't even say hello ... I'm not saying he's Eminem, but he's definitely qualified."
Dempsey, who uses his nickname "Deuce" as his handle, joins a long list of athletes to lay down tracks.
Ronaldinho recently starred in a rap project, called "Let's Drink" and featuring DJ Dennis, with the chorus: "Boot the glass up high, let's drink / We will enjoy life, we drink / I'm full of money, let's drink."
FIFA has officially timed Clint Dempsey's goal at 30 seconds in the United States' 2-1 win over Ghana, making Major League Soccer's highest paid player the fifth fastest scorer in World Cup history.
Dempsey is still deciding whether to wear a mask to protect his broken nose, though the U.S. Soccer Federation said he should be able to play despite the injury.
Klinsmann said the decision on whether to wear a mask would be up to Dempsey.
The United States faces Portugal in Group G on Sunday at 6 ET.

VALDOSTA - Georgia Southwestern starting pitcher Matt Weaver accounted for nine of the team's 12 strikeouts on Wednesday evening against Valdosta State, worked out of a jam in the first, and held the Blazers to three hits over the following five innings to help secure a 7-3 victory.
Valdosta State (16-20) wasted little time in opening the scoring as its first three batters reached via a pair of singles and a walk. Two batters later, Christian Glisson singled to right to plate Chaz Bagwell. Georgia Southwestern starting pitcher Matt Weaver rebounded with a strikeout and a fielder's choice to hold VSU to a 1-0 advantage.
GSW (23-16) responded with three runs in the top of the second inning. A walk and a double put two runners into scoring position before Andrew Anderson it a sharp grounder to short that was misplayed by Aaron Kicklighter. Both runners, which had retreated back to their bases, scored on the play as the ball bounced into left-centerfield. Anderson stole second and moved to third on a groundout while Beau Parker doubled to left to give GSW a 3-1 advantage.
The Hurricanes added a run in the top of the third inning when Jared Allen scored from third on a wild pitch. VSU got a doubles from Ryan Noelte and Joel Cardinal in the fourth inning to cut the deficit to 4-2.
A Michel Coffey RBI single in the fifth pushed the GSW advantage back to three runs while Paschel Poston plated a run with a ground out and Beau Parker hit a sacrifice fly in the sixth to give the Georgia Southwestern a 7-2 advantage.
Valdosta State got a run back in the bottom of the sixth inning as Christian Glisson led off with his sixth home run of the year
After the shaky start, Weaver settled down and allowed just six hits and three runs while striking out nine in six innings of work to improve to 1-0. Stephen Daneman and Grey Carden combined to keep VSU scoreless over the final three frames, striking out three in the process. Cameron Martin fell to 0-1 for VSU as he surrendered three runs, two earned, on one hit in an inning and a third. The Blazers brought six pitchers to the hill in the contest.
Coffey and Parker recorded two hits each to lead GSW, which finished with seven hits in the game. Meanwhile, Glisson collected three hits to lead Valdosta State offensively on the day as the Blazers recorded eight in the game.
The Hurricanes return to action on Friday when they travel to Columbus State and open a weekend Peach Belt Conference series at 6 p.m.

Keeping on task
Well I haven't sent the letter to the son in Arizona, but I am going to next week. This week just got away from me. Also, I'm tired of getting film for these church records that don't have what I want on them. It's mostly my fault. Thanks to my grandparents I am ordering copies of the 2 I need from the original source. I am also going to write to the Tioga County Pennsylvania Historical Society and ask if they can take digital pictures of the bible records of my ancestors. I'm so excited to get this ball rolling!! On top of it all, I am taking care of the house the best I can, meeting with clients, working full time with added responsibilites and creating 2 more classes. Ugh. But I love it!

Samitar, winner of the Group 1 Irish 1000 Guineas in May at the Curragh, and Karlovy Vary, whose biggest victory came when she wired the field at 15-1 in the Grade 1 Ashland at Keeneland, both will be looking to rebound off third-place finishes in their most recent outings.
Following that race – her first beyond a mile and her first over firm turf – she was transferred to trainer Chad Brown.
"I thought she fought well," said Brown of the Rock of Gibraltar filly, who has had five published works since the Lake George, most recently a half-mile breeze in 50.99 Monday around the dogs over a "good" Belmont Park inner turf. "Now, we've had her in our care and we're getting to know her a little bit. She seems to be training well."
Ramon Dominguez will ride Samitar, the 8-5 morning line favorite and high weight under 122 pounds, from post position 3.
Trained by Rusty Arnold for Alex Campbell, Jr., Karlovy Vary had won three of her four starts prior to eking out a third in the Nani Rose at Saratoga. Her only loss in that span came on conventional dirt in the Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks, in which she finished 12th.
Off for six weeks after the Oaks, the Dynaformer filly returned to the grass and beat older fillies and mares in an optional claimer at the Garden City distance on June 23 at Churchill Downs, and then ran evenly at 3-5 to finish 1 ½ lengths behind Alaura Michele and Sweet and Lovely in the one-mile Nani Rose over the Spa's inner turf course.
Julien Leparoux will ride Karlovy Vary, 5-2 on the morning line, from post position 6.
Somali Lemonade, a traffic-troubled sixth in the Lake George, returned to finish third, beaten 1 ¼ lengths, behind Stephanie's Kitten and Centre Court in the Grade 2 Lake Placid. Trained by Michael Matz for Caroline Forgason, the Lemon Drop Kid filly is 6-1 on the morning line as she seeks her first victory since taking the Grade 3 Jessamine last October at Keeneland.
She will leave from post position 4 with Joel Rosario aboard.
Trainer Todd Pletcher and Hall of Famer Shug McGaughey will be represented in the Garden City, respectively, by graded stakes debuters Ciao Bella and Trophy Wife.
Ciao Bella, a gray daughter of Giant's Causeway owned by Michael Tabor, has run three times, all on dirt. A 7 ¼-length maiden winner last December at Gulfstream Park, she returned to beat older fillies and mares at Monmouth Park on July 29 and next was an even fourth after a wide trip on August 17 in Saratoga's Summer Guest overnight stakes.
She has since worked twice on the grass at Saratoga, covering four furlongs in 47.55 seconds on August 31 and the same distance in a bullet 47.28 on September 7,
"She's a promising filly," said Pletcher, "and we like the way she has breezed on turf."
Ciao Bella drew post position 5 and is 10-1 on the morning line. John Velazquez will ride.
McGaughey, who notched his ninth graded stakes victory on the turf when Air Support took the Grade 2 Bowling Green Handicap on opening day at Belmont, will saddle the Phipps Stable's Trophy Wife, recent winner of an optional claimer on the turf at Saratoga.
The Giant's Causeway filly, 2-0-2 from six starts, will be making her third straight appearance on the turf, having won an optional claimer on August 5 at Saratoga and finishing fourth, beaten 2 ¾ lengths on July 15 at Belmont.
Eddie Castro will be in the irons as Trophy Wife leaves from the outside at 8-1 on the morning line.
Rounding out the field are Tannery, the Group 3 Kilboy Estate Stakes winner who is making her American debut for owner Richard Santulli and trainer Alan Goldberg, and Open Water, third in the Grade 1 Del Mar Oaks last time out.

Former White House correspondent Helen Thomas
has acknowledged she touched a nerve with remarks about Israel that led
to her retirement. But she says the comments were "exactly what I
thought," even though she realized soon afterward that it was the end of
her job.
"I hit the third rail. You cannot criticize Israel in this country
and survive," Thomas told Ohio station WMRN-AM in a sometimes emotional
35-minute interview that aired Tuesday. It was recorded a week earlier
by WMRN reporter Scott Spears at Thomas' Washington, D.C., condominium.
Thomas, 90, stepped down from her job as a columnist for Hearst News
Service in June after a rabbi and independent filmmaker videotaped her
outside the White House calling on Israelis to get "out of Palestine."
She gave up her front row seat in the White House press room, where she
had aimed often pointed questions at 10 presidents, going back to
She has kept a low profile since then.
"(It was) very hard for the first two weeks. After that, I came out
of my coma," said Thomas, whose parents immigrated to the U.S. from
Rabbi David Nesenoff, who runs the website rabbilive.com, said he
approached Thomas after he'd been at the White House for Jewish Heritage
Day on May 27. He asked whether she had any comments on Israel.
"Tell them to get the hell out of Palestine," she replied.
"Remember, these people are occupied and it's their land. It's not
Germany, it's not Poland," she continued. Asked where they should go,
she answered, "They should go home."
"Where's home?" Nesenoff asked.
"Poland, Germany and America and everywhere else," Thomas replied.
"I told him exactly what I thought," she told Spears, who said during
the interview that some accounts left off her reference to America.
Thomas did not disagree.
"I was not talking about Auschwitz or anything else," she said.
"They distorted my remarks, which they obviously have to do for their
own propaganda purposes, otherwise people might wonder why they
continue to take Palestinian land," said Thomas. There was no
explanation of whom "they" referred to.
When she soon began getting calls about her remark, "I said this is the end of my job."
She issued an apology, she told the radio interviewer, because people
were upset and she thought she had hurt people. "At the same time, I
had the same feelings about Israel's aggression and brutality," Thomas
Asked whether she's anti-Semitic, she responded "Baloney!" She said
she wants to be remembered for "integrity and my honesty and my belief
in good journalism" and would like to work again.
Spears said Thomas granted him the interview because the two had
developed a friendship during previous interviews she had done with the
station in Marion, some 70 kilometres north of Columbus, Ohio.
Their discussion also touched on current politics, particularly on women.
Thomas described Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as "a hawk." ''I
thought women in politics would have more compassion, be more liberal,"
Thomas said.
As for Sarah Palin, Thomas said she believed the former Alaska
governor and Republican vice-presidential candidate was ambitious enough
to run for president.
"That would be a tragedy, a national tragedy," she said, describing Palin as "very conservative, reactionary, unbelievable."
Asked about tea party-backed Republican Delaware Senate candidate
Christine O'Donnell, Thomas responded with one word: "Frightening."

Helen Thomas Cries When She Learns Of President Obama's Comments About Her
While printed accounts of the 35-minute radio interview have focused on her inflammatory remarks, subsequent apology, and her opinions of flashpoint politicians Christine O'Donnell and Sarah Palin, they ignore a portion of the interview that packs an emotional wallop. Apparently learning of them for the first time, Helen reacts tearfully to a quote from President Obama.
Host Scott Spears informs Helen that the President called her remarks "offensive and out of line," and a taken aback Helen asks "Through a spokesman?"
Spears responds that the President made the comment himself in a Today show interview. Here's Helen's gut-wrenching reaction:
Apparently, Helen was heretofore only aware of comments by White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs on the day of Helen's retirement, which is where she gets the "reprehensible" reference from. Learning of the rebuke from the President himself obviously affected her deeply.
Here's the President's quote from that Today Show interview:

RIAA Flubs Chance To Actually Respond To Questions About CD Ripping
from the nice-work,-guys dept
That's why it shouldn't be surprising (or "ironic") that we pointed out where the Washington Post and others were wrong in describing a particular lawsuit filed by a record label against Jeffrey Howell. It does no one any good to fight that battle until it's actually necessary. In fact, by saying the RIAA is saying something they have not, it only gives the RIAA more ammo to suggest that those of us who are legitimately critiquing their policies are simply "making stuff up."
So, while I disagree with folks saying that it's impossible to unfairly malign the RIAA, it is rather telling (as pointed out at that same link) to look at how the RIAA has responded to this debate. If they were smart and had any strategic PR sense at all (I know, I know, stop laughing...), someone at the RIAA should have come out quickly and made a clear statement saying: "Ripping CDs for personal use is, and always has been, perfectly legal. We will not, and have not, sued anyone who does that." It's an easy, proactive statement that the RIAA could make. It wouldn't be conceding anything, as it's a factual statement based on the law. Instead, the RIAA has remained mostly quiet or made more careful statements, rather than just coming out and saying: "Yes, you can rip your CDs for personal use." And, for that, the RIAA should absolutely be maligned -- not because of any hatred or anti-RIAA sentiment -- but because it's just dumb and self-defeating.

Usually, the younger you are in Hollywood, the better ... but in the case of Anastasia Steele and who will play her in the upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey movie, I think age is actually a boon. In the steamy novel, Ana is a 21-year-old college student who falls in love with an older man, and most people expect the director to cast, well, someone around the age of 21 to play the part. I, however, beg to disagree. In order to play Ana, you've got to be sexy yet sweet, naive yet wise, obsequious yet assertive. That's why Krysten Ritter, star of Don't Trust the B in Apt 23, and who happens to be 31, would be a perfect Ana.
And it's because of, not despite, her horribly, hideously, disgustingly gross old age that makes her ideal. She has some life experience to bring to the part, and yes, the obvious argument is that Ana doesn't, that Ana's so young, and that's just as much as her character as is her lip biting.
More from The Stir: Ian Somerhalder May Already Be Preparing to Play Christian Grey
Fine, but Ana's not real. In order to play Ana, you have to understand what she's feeling, and in order to understand what she's feeling, you have to have some years under your belt. Enter Krysten. She knows way more about what Ana's going through than, say, a Disney star whose biggest thrill in life is when her manager lets her go off her diet for a week's vacation to the Seychelles.
Granted, a pina colada and an island getaway is more than I could ever hope for in my measly existence, but we're talking a multi, multimillion-dollar job here. I wouldn't want to leave that up to a kid. The kids can stay making their big bucks on those singing shows that everyone seems to like so much.
A talented actress like Krysten would be able to bring a necessary depth to Ana, and the good news is, she's into it. She tweeted she'd be down for the role.
Look out, Lucy.
Do you think Krysten would make a great Ana?

Ethnic song with eastern vibe, indian sitar and african percussions. Great for documentaries, commercials, video games and travel projects requiring ethnic ambiences.
Sitar and some other eastern strings compose the melody, which flows on the main groove made by rich, pumping and groovy tabla patterns and other ethnic percussions. Has a dance feel. I also recorded some voices and choirs (by myself) in the second part, and placed them quite low in the mix, just to add some color. Minor tunes alternate with major ones in the end, so oriental and occidental tastes get mixed together. Happy, dancing, colorful and motivating track!
- Please rate if you liked or purchased this song! Thank you!

January 7, 2009 - Once a fighting franchise continues beyond its first few iterations, each entry becomes a balancing act. The series has a solid fan base that expects some things to stay the same (otherwise there'd be no market for another sequel), but that devoted base doesn't want to shell out $60 for the same game, and there's always the desire to lure in more fans. Such is the dilemma facing Tekken 6, already out in Japanese arcades and coming to American consoles in Fall 2009. It will be the first Tekken game to see a release on an Xbox platform in addition to the usual PlayStation one, despite the fact that the arcade machines were based on the PlayStation 3.
Namco Bandai has approached the game with a "more is better" philosophy, keeping most of the features introduced in Tekken 5 and Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection (including online versus, which first appeared in an update of Dark Resurrection), playing up the series' strengths, and slightly tweaking the game mechanics whenever possible. The company even continued the changes past the game's arcade release, adding a second arcade version, Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion. Reports indicate the console version will have even more features. (Official communications from Namco Bandai refer to the new game as Tekken 6, without any subtitle).
Tekken 6 will feature at least 42 characters, the biggest roster ever to inhabit the franchise's world, and at least six will be new. The game's executive producer, Katsuhiro Harada, insisted to PlayStation: The Official Magazine that even with all these fighters, there's no redundancy: "They all are unique, not only in their appearance but their personality and techniques as well. Leo is a Bajiquan practictioner from Germany whose father is a famous spelunker. Zafina is a female character from the Middle East who uses ancient assassination arts. Miguel is a brawler from Spain. Bob is a freestyle karate practitioner from the U.S." You'll be able to adjust these characters' looks far more than in previous Tekken games; you can even change their hairstyles.
There will be a few significant additions to the fighting system. One is Rage Mode, into which your character will enter when his health gets low. As the name would imply, he'll get angry and more powerful, and he'll have a better chance of turning the match around. Another addition is, while the characters won't wield weapons all the time, they will each have "Item Moves." (Bryan Fury's will involve a shotgun). Also, when your opponent slams you down, you won't be able to tech roll. This is called the "Bounce" system, and will enable longer juggles. Fighters will have a little more life to balance out these new ways to inflict damage. In addition, the environments will be bigger and will include multiple tiers and breakable elements.
Graphically, Tekken 6 represents a total overhaul since Tekken 5; not a single animation remains. It is, of course, the first game in the franchise designed from the beginning for high-definition home consoles (Tekken 5 was only for PlayStation 2, though Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection saw a budget-price PS3 release). It's also the debut of the OctaveEngine, a physics simulator promoted for its water, sand, snow, and sky effects. Some stages will transition between day and night, and one of the arenas even has a few inches of water on the ground. OctaveEngine can precisely depict, in real time, how real water and skies would behave under the conditions in the game. In the videos released thus far of the water stage, the waves and splashes look terrific when fighters thrash around, great news considering that while water looked great in games like Bioshock and Half-Life 2, no one has gotten splashes just right before.
In terms of story, Tekken 6 employs a straightforward and time-tested tale: There's a fighting tournament (the "King of Iron Fist Tournament"), and you have to win it. Players who want more from a plot probably won't be disappointed, however, because there are likely a few surprises in store. It's unclear whether he's coming to consoles, but Lars Alexandersson, one of the characters added in the Bloodline Rebellion version of the arcade game, comes armed with the knowledge that he's the son of Heihachi Mishima, one of the Tekken series' long-standing lead characters (Heihachi does not know this). Another new character, Azazel, who has been confirmed and appeared in both Tekken 6 arcade games, serves as the final boss.
Tekken 6 promises a lot. Through a new engine, new characters, new animations, and new fighting features, it will try to push a classic series into the next generation. It will face stiff competition in 2009, with the long-await Street Fighter IV set for console release in February. If early reports, videos, and reviews of the arcade game are any indication, though, it will give its rivals a run for their energy meters.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Last Friday, more than 120 hackers, developers and computer programmers from Israel and Jewish communities abroad took part in a hackathon that occurred simultaneously in California's "Silicon Valley" and in Tel Aviv.
Many of the Jewish hackers in California play leading roles in major high-tech companies like Google, LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook.
Under the title of "Friday Night Hack," the event had two tracks, one focusing on Israel and the other on the Jewish communities around the world.
The Israel track aimed to develop a new app called "Open Budget" to promote transparency and accessibility to the budgets of local authorities in Israel in order to allow residents to better understand how their money is being spent.
The purpose of such events is to develop new software, open source interactivity, and to empower and leverage technology for social change. Equally important in this particular hackathon was encouraging the establishment of a global community of Jewish hackers committed to using their talents in service to Israel and the Jewish nation.

Luzia wrote:I've been wondering, Since there are some new instances such as Karazhan(10 man), Is Naxx still worth it. Stuff you can get from Naxx is great but still, many items from Karazhan is way better. I gotta admit that Kara is really hard and requires an awsome CC for 10 people but the stuff you get from there is awsome. That's why I can't make my mind if we should keep doing Naxx or just focus on Kara / Gruul's Lair (not yet but when more pplz will hit 70)? I'm taking your hint & tips.
Thanks everyone.
Focus on kara and wait until the next expansion comes. Naxx will be reborn again

Wayland chemistry department offering resources for homeschoolers
Wayland Baptist University's chemistry department will begin offering a special program for high school aged homeschool students this fall to provide hands-on experience in the science lab.
The project, called Plainview Area Homeschool Science Enhancement Program or PAHSEP, is designed to provide the laboratory enhancement to chemistry lessons being taught by parents or others providing homeschool education. Labs in Wayland's Moody Science Building on the Plainview campus will be the site for the program.
PAHSEP is the brainchild of Dr. Joel Boyd, assistant professor of chemistry at Wayland. Boyd said the idea came to him after a visit with a scientist in Albuquerque, N.M. that would offer chemistry and physics labs in his home church for homeschooled students. While working on a chemistry Web page for the university, Boyd happened upon another school that was tapping into the homeschool population.
"It just clicked. I put the two together," he said. "It's a great opportunity to help the community educationally, and that's part of our goal, as well as to recruit. We hope to turn these students on to science and maybe also turn them on to Wayland."
Specifically, Boyd said the program will feature sessions held one Saturday each month from September through May, with the first meeting planned on Sept. 14. The sessions will run from 9 a.m. until around noon, and the labs done will reinforce the lessons the students have learned at home for the past month.
"I designed the lab curriculum to follow the basic order that most all chemistry textbooks use," Boyd explained. "Also, the labs will be listed online, so they'll know what they need to be prepared for."
The program is not a course for credit, Boyd points out, but a supplement to the lessons already being taught in the home. Knowing that many parents who homeschool their children lack the traditional science lab resources, Boyd said PAHSEP was simply a chance to help meet those needs for families and give them the same advantage as public school students.
The program is limited to 20 students and is open to families from anywhere around the region. The year-long program costs $40, which helps offset the cost of materials and chemicals for labs. Boyd said if the program is successful, there is a possibility of extending it to other science disciplines as well.
Information and forms for registration and safety release for PAHSEP are available on the Wayland Web site at www.wbu.edu/chem and may be mailed to Boyd at 1900 West 7th St., Plainview, Texas 79072. For additional information about the program, contact Boyd at (806) 291-1125.

This past week I was presented with a very unique issue. A call came in with a production issue on a tier one application. Unfortunately it was on a system that utilizes SQL 2000 SP4. Having a rather small toolset to use for support I had to rely on Perfmon, sysprocesses and the usual old school tools.
What I found was page life expectancy was higher than usual, CPU was lower than usual, memory was usual, disk metrics were way lower than normal, but thread count was out the roof with pageiolatch waits.
We had all tech areas on the call and we brought in all our top DBA's. Earlier in my analysis I came across a scan64.exe that was running. Our virus protection is setup to best practice for database servers on the "On Access Scan" being that we exclude the normal files. I did not recognize scan64.exe, noticed it was only using 6% CPU so I looked up what processes was using it. I found that it was indeed a virus scan product so I did what any other admin would do, I tried to kill it. I couldn't kill the process so I moved on since it wasn't using much CPU.
In times past when on access scan would be killing a server, CPU would be off the chart. Since scan64.exe wasn't I didn't give it much focus. Another DBA brought it up and once we got Microsoft on the phone and mentioned scan64.exe they stated that belonged to a filter driver product with virus protection. After much more research we found that this was scanning at the application layer 'sqlserv.exe'. All operations were being ran through that driver thus applying a DOS attack on the server.
After shutting down that driver and rebooting the server, everything went back to normal.
Lesson learned for me, anything out of the norm should be a suspect!

Jan. 07--HAVERHILL -- Joe D'Amore has scoured areas in Lawrence and Haverhill where homeless live and congregate to offer them basic necessities for survival, including food, bottled water and clothing. He's done this year-round for the last three years with help from a network of volunteers working under the auspices of a fundraising effort he calls "Merrimack Valley Hope Mission."
He says he was searching for a way to gain a level of spiritual fulfillment that he wasn't getting in other ways.
"I was looking for a way to live out my faith," he said.
But for D'Amore, it didn't feel like he was doing enough, so two years ago he expanded his street outreach with help from Common Ground Ministries in Haverhill by holding bag lunch distributions on Fridays from 1 to 2 p.m. in GAR Park.
As he got to know some of the people who showed up each week, he learned that many of them had served in the military.
"People who were coming through our bagged lunch lines began identifying themselves as veterans, and they also have basic needs including clothing and food," D'Amore said. "Some are suffering from mental health issues, some have lost everything, whether a marriage, home or career, and we've come to the realization that there's a subset of homeless who are veterans."
He decided to once again expand his street outreach efforts, only this time by focusing on homeless veterans in partnership with Dana and Salvatore DeFranco, owners of Battle Grounds Coffee Company in downtown Haverhill.
D'Amore, a Groveland resident who works full time as a financial adviser, has given much of his time and money to the area's homeless population, and now he's asking others not to sacrifice their time, but to dig into their pockets to help homeless veterans in particular.
And he's making it as simple as possible by creating a wish list at online retailer Amazon for specific winter clothing items. All you have to do is click on an item on the list and charge it to your Amazon account or credit card.
He's also asking that gift cards be dropped off at Battle Grounds, a business that is passionate about helping veterans in need.
D'Amore along with Donald Jarvis, a peer support specialist for the Massachusetts Department of Veterans Services, recently asked Dana and Sal DeFranco of Battle Grounds to be part of the new outreach project. Sal DeFranco is a former Navy SEAL.
"They loved the idea and graciously offered their coffee shop as a collection and distribution center," D'Amore said.
Dana and Sal recently hosted a Veterans Day breakfast that many veterans as well as local officials and D'Amore attended.
"I realized that Sal, Dana and I are kindred spirits, and that we all care about veterans who have fallen through the cracks," D'Amore said.
"We're very loud in asking people for stuff, but we're very quiet in our distributions," he added. "It's a matter of dignity and respect for these veterans."
During Friday food distributions at GAR Park, D'Amore and his volunteers from area churches, youth groups and families hand out upwards of 100 bagged lunches to the poor and homeless and those living in overnight shelters. Each bag contains a homemade sandwich, a bottle of water, a bag of chips, fresh fruit, and a dessert or energy bar.
"Friday afternoons after 11 a.m. there are no food outlets for the homeless in Haverhill until the next morning, so we're helping to close that hunger gap," he said. "Many of our recipients take more than one bag, as we have families who take four or five. We also have people living in cars and vans who drop by and take a meal."
They also deliver an additional 100 bagged lunches to homeless shelters in Haverhill and to the Common Ground drop-in center on Winter Street.
He says the veterans he's encountered in his Friday lunch lines are humble in a sense they don't bring attention to themselves as veterans, some of whom are decorated veterans.
"It's gratifying that someone would personally entrust me with their personal stories and accept things from me," D'Amore said.
Between Jan. 1 and Feb. 23, D'Amore, Jarvis and Sal and Dana DeFranco are appealing to the public to donate fleece rolls, hats, gloves, socks and scarves as well as gift cards to either Market Basket or Walmart to be distributed directly to area veterans and their families in need this winter.
Battle Grounds is collecting new items for veterans, but the DeFrancos are asking for gift cards in particular.
"I'd like to encourage people to use the website but the best things to drop off at Battle Grounds are gift cards," Dana DeFranco said.
"Our mission at Battle Grounds is to help our community in any way possible," she added. "When it comes to our veteran community, it really hits home for us."
"Our motto is 'Country, Community, Coffee,' and 'here to serve,'" she said.
The staff at Battle Grounds will happily accept and document your donation, and Sal and Dana DeFranco will ensure donated items are distributed directly to veterans and their families in need.
D'Amore said he will work with local veteran's organizations to reach as many veterans as possible.
Donors are also encouraged to use an Amazon Wish List to make purchases online. Search for "Battle Veteran's Homelessness" on Facebook, which includes the Amazon Wish List site, www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1WNCUP1J8Z983/ref=nav_wishlist_lists_1.
Amazon then ships the donated items to the group for rapid distribution.
"We already received approximately 25 sleeping bags, 25 blankets as well as dozens of hats and gloves, all of which were new, and have already distributed them to veterans and their families," D'Amore said. "We don't want to hold onto anything, as it's cold and veterans need these items now."
D'Amore has also reached out to area veterans organizations to promote the project.
"My hope is very clear, that the volume of donations is sufficient so that our distribution can expand to veterans organizations throughout the area," he said. "Our goal is also $5,000 worth of gift cards, and we ask that people purchase them in $25 to $100 denominations if possible."
A special celebration -- and the last date to donate -- is planned for Feb. 23 at Battle Grounds.
