Tieran was a strong-willed male who became Autarch of Ilari in the 22nd century. Tieran, after being a uniting force for his people, became manipulative, power-hungry, paranoid and ruthless. He was eventually overthrown; the new Autarch's descendants still ruled as of 2373.
He was able to continue to exist for over two hundred years by transferring his mind to host bodies. His goal was to reclaim the ancient Ilari throne and rule the Ilari world forever. When he was beamed aboard USS Voyager, after being rescued from a disabled starship, his host body died but not before he transferred his consciousness to Kes.
In Kes' body, Tieran returned to the planet and staged a coup that toppled the government. Tieran killed the then-current Autarch and abducted one of his sons, Ameron. Tieran, whose own mental powers combined with Kes' mental powers, became extremely powerful to the extent that he could inflict pain on others through mental telepathy, as he did to Resh, his general, who doubted him.
These enhanced powers had side effects. Kes continued to fight Tieran for control of her body, resulting in a series of severe headaches and bouts of split personality as Kes tried to gain control. Ater Tuvok was captured in a failed rescue attempt, Tieran interrogated Tuvok trying to use Kes' mental powers to get the information he desired. This failed when Tuvok was able to initiate a mind meld and speak directly to Kes, who told Tuvok she was fighting Tieran for control. Tieran then sent a message to Voyager informing them to stay out of his affairs, owing them for saving his life. Afterward, Tieran hosted a celebration for his marriage to Ameron (which he considered a political alliance for his benefit). But when Voyager and a number of loyalists advanced on the capital, Tieran refused to hide in a bunker and ordered everyone to celebrate rather then fight. But he underestimated Voyager, which sent a landing party and attacked the palace. Neelix was able to place a synaptic stimulator on Kes, but not before Tieran had transferred to Ameron. Kes placed the device on Ameron and Tieran was destroyed. (VOY: "Warlord")

A Community of Exceptional Nurses
NTI is the premier conference for nurses who care for high acuity and critically ill patients and their families.
2011 NTI Brochure
NTI features the latest advances and evidence-based practice. In addition to the stellar presentations attendees are accustomed to, we've added great new content for 2011.
Quick Reference Guide
Contains a list of tangible benefits to discuss with your employer, and a summary of creative ideas and suggestions that may help address staffing and funding challenges.
Sessions for every nurse, no matter where you are on your career path. Here are a few examples of sessions you can attend.
Inspiring Change at the Bedside Through Nursing-based M & M Program
Karen Hanel, RN, BSNDerek James, RN, CCRN, EMT-BElisabeth Nelson, RNShands Jacksonville Medical Center
Case Study Investigation created to help fellow staff nurses better comprehend the critical interventions nurses do at the bedside in a shock-trauma ICU. Using the physicians' morbidity & mortality (M & M) format, nurses examine patient cases with unexpected outcomes.
View All Sessions
Eyes of Champions Guide Rookies Through the Race of Critical Care Nursing: Use of a Telemedicine Mentoring Program
Wendy Deibert, RN, BSNExecutive Director Telemedicine Services, Sisters Of Mercy Health System
Things happen fast in the ICU, and time is of the essence, but help might not always be available. Where are the resources when a nurse needs them most? Experienced critical care nurses are ready, willing and able to assist the bedside caregivers in the patient's room via telemedicine. Reviewing the plan of care with a tele-ICU nurse can be the difference between driving safely through the race or speeding blindly with limited information.
Oh, Grandma, What a Very Big Medication List You Have: Toxidromes Every Critical Care Nurse Should Know
Ann Lystrup, BSN, RN, CEN, CFRN, CCRNSpecialist in Poison Information,Utah Poison Control Center
Focus lies on providing clinicians with a basic understanding of key toxidromes, their causative medications and physiologic effects, and the associated appropriate nursing assessments and interventions.

James Pedeaston is a child molester wanted in Malaysia and is being investigated by the FBI. He hosted The Wild Traveler show on WCTR in 1992, although it is apparently syndicated to nine other stations (not heard in-game). He enjoys traveling the world and logging some of his most 'exotic' encounters in his travelogue, some of which he accidentally reads on-air to the disgust of the listeners. His favorite memory seems to be a relationship with a boy named Avrindar in Sri Lanka. His show appears to be so reviled by his listeners that at one point, he receives few calls which are not supportive. For example, a caller tells him to stop droning on about other countries and focus on talking about where he lives. At one point he received a phone call from a suicidal man in Verdant Bluffs who wanted to go to hell. Pedeaston replies with "Me too! Buy me a refrigerator magnet when you get there". In GTA IV, he was arrested by the Indonesian police after being suspected of child molesting in Bali, Indonesia in 2003.
- Pedeaston is one of the radio/background characters who originated in the GTA III Era who continues his off-screen existence in the high-definition universe.
- In Grand Theft Auto IV a website exists, at freejames.org, which asks people to donate to his legal fund, after Pedeaston was arrested in Bali. The website only received $23. He had been tried and convicted on October 23, 2003.
- His name is likely a play on the word "Pedophile"
- Leaked casting calls for Grand Theft Auto V suggested that he might in the next installment of the series.

FANTASTIC Rain Jacket
- Familiarity:I've put it through the wringer
I have tried multiple rain jackets for here the Seattle Rain Zone, and THIS is by far the very best rain jacket. It is extremely comfortable, it breathes, is excellent in the wind. I have been hailed on, rained on Dumped on and still stayed dry. The temps I have used this jacket range from 35 deg. to 50 deg., I wear Under Armour Heat gear at 50 deg. and Cold gear at 35 deg. under the jacket and a short sleeve jersey. I ride 40-60 miles and would highly recommend this jacket. A gal in our ride group saw me in it 2 weeks ago, asked about it and today she was wearing a Red/White Protezione Jacket!

So why is there disillusionment around CRM? First, the sound business sense in CRM has been overshadowed by the technological and financial implications of making it work in practice.
Second, CRM is much more than a new data warehouse. It's about the structure and culture of the organisation and its ability to respond to customers.
Marketers should embrace CRM, but focus on a new set of initials - CVM (customer value management).
CVM is about proactively creating valuable customers - measuring their current value, assessing potential value and creating strategies to increase that value over time. How many marketers can report on the current value (that's yield), let alone the potential value, of their customer base?
Consider mobile phone networks. New subscribers are universally bribed with a subsidised handset, which takes 15 to 18 months of serious calling to pay back. At this point the fickle 'high-value' customer is enticed away by a competitor to enjoy a new, improved handset upgrade. And so the cycle continues. It is often the medium-value subscriber, who sticks with the same handset, that generates the real value.
CVM tries to understand the opportunities for value growth within customer segments and to create strategies which will change customer behaviour over time to deliver that potential. Unfortunately, there are real barriers to implementing CVM. Marketing is often measured over a month, a quarter or, if they are lucky, a year. Customers tend to look for a far longer-term relationship with a company.
Take a typical full-service airline. Its customer profile is broad, spanning backpackers, junior executives in economy, senior executives in business class, singles on a city break, families on a long-haul holiday, retired couples visiting family overseas and so on. It needs to appeal to all these audiences, but also to recognise that over 30 years, a single loyal customer could fall into all these categories. Imagine how much stronger customer relationships would be if you recognised the past and anticipated the future, instead of simply marketing to the now.
Marketing investment typically looks to a return within the financial year - not over a customer's lifetime. And marketers often change jobs after a year or two. This doesn't engender the long view that is required for joined-up CVM.
Finally, consider the way your business is valued at present. It may report to its shareholders on customer numbers, on revenue, on overall profit, but rarely on customer value or potential value. Since shareholders are often investing for the long term, this could soon be the most valid metric.
CRM is here to stay, but sound CVM is the key that will unlock the profit potential from customers in the future.

Tiki Villagers
The world is an old place, and it is within the deep island jungles that the oldest and darkest of its secrets are tended. A tribe of hunters and lorekeepers has protected the wisdom of the earth since its creation, fighting tirelessly against the modern world that claws at their sanctuary. But progress, like water, wears on even the most powerful of structures. It is a battle the tribe is losing. With a solemn decree and a savage war cry, the tribe decided to leave the shelter of their island and take the fight to the bright, plastic world encroaching on their solitude.
Before leaving, the wisest of them, knowing that the strength that was theirs inside the forest would fade as they left its borders, fashioned totems and weapons from the spirit of the jungle. Even the youngest of them knew what a sacrifice the island had made in giving these objects of power to the villagers. It would be defenseless until their return.
The old world had declared war on the new.

Deadly Poison
Great on Zina to poison the whole enemy team. Also good for Tafari or Popo to add a little punch to their attacks.
Elusive Feather
The Feather makes Popo especially hard to hit with physical attacks, though it's also helpful on Juju as an aid to landing Touch of Doom. Useful on any Villager if physical attacks become important in the metagame.
Death Mask
Getting one extra turn to live is especially good for Juju so he can land a Touch of Doom, but really any Villager benefits from getting one more turn to attack.
Quickening Powder
The unpredictability of Quickening powder can help any Villager sneak in an attack faster than the enemy realizes is possible.
Tiger's Claw
The Claw weakens the enemy, giving you a bit more time to set up your own attacks.

While a student at MCA, you'll be living in the cultural crossroads of America—Memphis. The city that spawned rock and roll along with soul still harbors a creative vibe unlike any other city in the world. Maybe that's why there are so many venues available to experience an outpouring of this aura.
There are literally dozens of museum and art galleries within fifteen minutes of campus. Their exhibitions range from the most recent alternative local art to the intricate beauty of ornamental metalwork.
If performance is more your bag, dig on any of the live theater shows found around town, including the historic Orpheum Theatre — home to touring Broadway productions and Playhouse on the Square — Memphis' professional theatre troupe with an all-new performance venue scheduled to open in 2010.
Or soak in some of the Memphis sound. It seems there's a live band on every street, but the highest concentration exists on and around world-famous Beale Street, where the blues makes its permanent residence and the parties last until the early hours of dawn.
If you're just looking to get your kicks and have a good time, there's always Graceland, the just-the-way-he-left-it home of Elvis. Or Sun Studios, the site where rock and roll was brought to life by Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash and Mr. Presley. Tour the equally-significant Stax Records, the launching pad of Otis Redding, Issac Hayes, Booker T. and the MGs, Al Green, Rufus and Carla Thomas, and the Bar-Kays. Throw in a little dash of B.B. King, Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin, Justin Timberlake, Three 6 Mafia and the fathers of alternative rock, Big Star, and you've got a who's who of American music all from right here in Memphis.
Two independent film festivals give us a refreshing reminder of what movies can be. You can pick up a Faulker novel and get his impression of our fair city. And if you're lucky, maybe John Grisham will be in town kicking off another book signing tour of his latest work based on Memphis.

text: Posted 29th June 2015 at 11:23 am Goalkeeper Adam Legzdins rejoined Blues for a second time in June 2015. The stopper signed a two-year deal with a further year's option in the Club's favour. Legzdins was a free agent having been released by League One Leyton Orient in the summer of 2015. The Penkridge-born player is a product of Blues' Academy and previously left the Club in 2008 to join Crewe Alexandra. After two years at Gresty Road he made the switch to Burton Albion where Paul Peschisolido was first team manager and current Blues boss Gary Rowett his assistant. His performances for the Brewers earned him a move up the footballing pyramid to Derby County. He spent three seasons at Pride Park and made 37 appearances before leaving the Rams to link up with Leyton Orient at the start of the 2014/15 campaign. Unfortunately his playing time with the O's was limited to just 13 appearances because of injury and he left Brisbane Road in the summer of 2015 by mutual consent.

lovely model, but .. as a 62 years old, now american but born french, i have an advice : take off the red fron the lips - it is too much red - and try a nice mellow pink.
I like the hat also

I'll be sure to check this out. Will it be in the print version of the mag as well?
- October 8, 2010 at 10:11 PM
beautiful photos and style. I liked the way they captured the spirit, spunk and "essence" of each of the people. I liked how the model's individuality (which appeared to have been their "masterpiece' in the making over the years, shedding their conformity in trade for their claim to "ME") smacked true. Inspiring, encouraging, lovely. The hats were a WOW thing: fun, bold, daring (Today's folks are afraid of hats.)
Thank you

Wonderful to see you in AARP! I exhibit at the big expo every year (2011 is in Los Angeles, where I live). It would be fabulous if you could be a speaker at the meeting,especially if you could bring some of your "models" with you. You would be a big hit at the "Lifestyle Sessions"! Think about it, won't you?

I have to confess, I am an AARP member, get the mag., etc. and I am so glad to see some fashion in it! Even better that you are doing it Ari! It looks great, but I also agree with Lise2cc on the red lipstick, but I think the model likes it.

Recruiting is a funny business.Some recruits come barreling out of the gates and receive all the hype, all the phone calls and everyone knows their name, where they're going and what they will become once they reach the college football field of their choice. Other recruits fly under the radar, for whatever reason, before bursting on the scene and making a name for themselves.One such recruit that seems poised to become a bigger name in the class of 2014 is Charlotte Independence offensive lineman Tony Adams. At 6-foot-1 and 318 pounds, Adams already has the size and frame college coaches are looking for. What he lacks is experience. With only one year of experience playing his current position, it's likely that the only reason more offers haven't been thrown Adams' way is because coaches are waiting to get a closer look at him before they decide to pull the trigger.Adams will keep busy over the summer by attending football camps at North Carolina, Duke, N.C. State and Wake Forest."It's been going alright. I've been getting calls from N.C. State and a few other Division I schools but I've been getting calls from Division II schools the most. I've had three or four offers come in from Furman, North Carolina A&T, Campbell and Charleston Southern," said Adams. "But I feel like after I do a few camps, more Division I offers will come in because of how I did at the Rivals Camp. Even though I had the toe injury I still thought I did well."Adams wasn't just doing well at The Rivals Camp Series presented by Under Armour when it rolled into Charlotte in April. He was impressing everyone in attendance and putting himself in great position heading into the next phase of recruiting."Things happen for a reason, that's fine. I was doing really well at the camp. I was showing out in the drills early and there was a buzz about me before I came over to the one-on-one (drills). But I was blocking the guy and then my toe got stuck in the turf," said Adams."I feel like things happen for a reason. It wasn't too big of an injury. It would have been devastating if it had been an ACL or anything so I was thankful it wasn't that. I was able to get back up the next Tuesday or Wednesday. I was able to run again. The only thing that really mattered was that I could still play football this upcoming season," said Adams. "You guys (Rivals.com) still ranked me pretty high which I really appreciate it. I saw the rankings and you guys ranked me in the top ten for the offensive side of the camp and you guys also ranked me in the top 50. That's my whole thing, I'll come back and everything happens for a reason. I'm going to go to these camps and I should be fine."Adams' performance in Charlotte nabbed him the eighth spot in Woody Womack's top ten performances of the day among offensive players. He finished ahead of players like Braxton Berrios, Derrell Scott and Kevin Crosby.After evaluating all the offensive linemen's performances throughout the camp series' tour across the country, Adams placed 39th for his position."The process is going to change pretty effectively because I'll have to weigh my options. I don't have a lot of options right now," said Adams. "I feel like since I've worked hard this whole offseason and really worked on my technique, I feel like after having only played offensive line for one year that my technique is as crisp as it's ever been." "So I'm going to go to these camps and do what I do and do the best that I can. After I go to each of them that'll get me a D-1 offer but you never know. If they do I'll have to weigh my options," said Adams. "But UNC is my number one school if they do offer me but they're not really showing me a lot more love than the other schools. But I feel like after I go to their camp, I'll be totally fine."Adams currently plays for one of the nation's more famous high school football programs by attending Charlotte Independence. Adams spoke about what it's like playing for a school with so much history."I'm coming from Boston. My Dad is the head wrestling coach at Boston University. I've lived in Boston my whole life and we just moved down with my Mom. Boston's football is nowhere near the talent level of North Carolina's football. That's the other reason that I came down," said Adams. "Being at Independence is just a plus. You have the tradition, the big "I" on the helmet and it's a great experience. I'm happy to be an important asset to the team. I feel like it's been a great experience so far. We're all brothers on the team. We all come together to form a great team. If anything I feel like it's been a privilege and a great opportunity."At this time, Adams doesn't see himself taking a JUCO route to try and improve his stock.Rightfully so, he believes there is still time to sit back and wait to see what kinds of Division I offers will come his way before that option even enters his thought process."JUCO was never in my mind. I don't know if it should be. I've never even thought about JUCO because that was never really brought up to me. I definitely want to weigh my options when I get more offers. I'm just trying to be optimistic about everything," says Adams. "If I do what I do and I do what I know I can do and my abilities are brought to the best that I know they can then I'll be fine. I won't have to worry about anything." ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

Paul Violette refused to answer questions about about lavish Turnpike Authority spending identified by the Legislature's Government Oversight Committee.
The Legislature's Government Oversight Committee has identified $1 million in lavishing spending--including $200,000 that might be illegal--during an investigation into the Maine Turnpike Authority.
During a hearing Friday, Sen. Roger Katz chastized former director Paul Violette. "In a time, sir, when some of our constituents have trouble putting food on their table, that you and other turnpike officials were spending thousands of dollars of public funds, eating at some of the finest restaurants in the world, in Puerto Rico, in Atlantic City, and in Nice, France, among others."
Katz tried to question Violette, but he declined to answer. Violette stared downward, and made an occasional grimace.
Violette stepped down amid questions about turnpike finances and $157,000 in gift cards that were handed out. The committee believes Violette was using many of gift cards for his own use, including at fancy hotels around the world, and a clothing store to buy a tuxedo.
At one point, Katz looked at Violette and asked: "If you caught a tolltaker taking money from the cash drawer, what would you have done?'' Violette didn't answer.

National Alliance on Mental Illness
page printed from FaithNet NAMI
Conversations on Spirituality and Mental Illness
By Nancy Kehoe, RSCJ, Ph.D
NAMI began when some parents reached out to connect with other parents who were living with mental illness in the family. Isolation is a frequent and painful aspect of mental illness; reaching out and connecting with others always bring a sense of life and reduce the sense of isolation.
Five years ago, three mothers who had adult children with mental illness reached out to me for consultation. For one mother, her daughter's schizophrenia, accompanied by religious delusions, prompted her to call me. For the other two women, their questions concerned the way faith could help as they lived with the suffering of their children's mental illness.
As we talked, the idea of having a book event arose. It could introduce the idea of faith and mental illness and would be an excellent way of attracting some interest in the community, in addition to it being an invitation to join the faith group we were going to start.
The first group met in June of 2009 and has met faithfully every second Monday of the month since that date—a remarkable record for such a group. The members of the group are parents who have children with mental illness, individuals who live with mental illness, anyone from the parish who is simply interested in the topic, and then others who learned about it from word of mouth or the NAMI affiliate's newsletter.
The title of the group is "Caring for the Soul." Twelve to fifteen men and women are present each month. One of the co-founders sends out an email reminder a week in advance.
We set some basic ground rules from the beginning and have established a simple way of being together. The focus of the group is to consider how our faith/spirituality helps us as we live with mental illness, either our own or that of a family member. The group is not a therapy group, nor is it a prayer group but a discussion group. It is also not a social action group. It is open to anyone regardless of a religious affiliation, though most of the members are Christian. We do have individuals from different denominations and others who are seekers.The format we created is this: at the beginning of each group the leader asks each one to introduce herself or himself—as we usually have one or two new people each month—and invites them to say a little about themselves. Some just say their name; some say what illness they are living with; some identify themselves as parents of someone living with a mental illness.
As leader, I usually bring some idea, a poem, a quote, a reflection on a recent experience that has been newsworthy. It can also be something connected with the calendar year or the church year and then the conversation begins. Fifteen minutes before the group ends, the leader offers members the time to mention any event or piece of legislation that is coming up as just a point of information. Then the leader brings a small wooden cross or a heart stone and we pass it around. Each one is invited to say something in closing or to just hold the object and say nothing. Often individuals will acknowledge gratitude for the group. Our discussions have focused on how suffering leads to or develops a deeper faith, people's journey with faith, the pain of stigma, and forgiveness in relation to abuse. Furthermore, other discussions focus religious messages that have not been helpful, honesty with God and honesty with oneself, and the role of the arts in healing. A question that we might discuss is our wounds a gift?
Over the years the level of trust and the freedom to explore one's beliefs in a safe, non-judgmental environment has been extremely beneficial to all. Members of the group have described it as "a place where you can talk about what has hurt you with others who have been hurt is healing" and an "atmosphere of total acceptance that is very unique." A third member said, "Because we are all seekers or people of faith, this makes other sharing possible and deeper." Another member said, "We usually walk with masks on. Here we have no masks." In the sharing of their journeys, parents, adult children, believers, the group has become a community.
There are many NAMI Affiliates around the country that have faith-related support groups. To see some examples of faith-related support groups, click here [PDF]. To see if there is a group in your area, click here.

A wide waterfall flanked by historic structures, a river with an important role in American history, the stunning hue of lilacs, and a gorgeous city skyline that inspires artists and poets alike. This is Rochester, New York, and it lives up to the slogan, "Made for Living."
Immigrants settled the area shortly after the American Revolution, but it wasn't until Colonel Nathaniel Rochester purchased land in 1803 that the city began to take shape. Lured to the area by the Genesee River's mighty force, Rochester believed the river would deliver terrific water power.
Since then, Rochester has been the location of significant historical events. Frederick Douglass started the abolitionist newspaper, the North Star, here in 1847. Susan B. Anthony called Rochester home, as did Emma Goldman, an anarchist who championed the cause of labor. George Eastman, founder of Eastman Kodak, began here, as did John Jacob Bausch and Henry Lomb, who launched Bausch & Lomb in 1861.
Education is huge in Rochester – this city is home to the University of Rochester and the Rochester Institute of Technology, two highly-respected universities with top-rated research programs. Rochester is a city of invention, and that reputation continues today.
Ready to discover your new apartment in Rochester? Here's what you need to know about this amazing city!
Things to Do in Rochester:
Located on Lake Ontario and directly east of Niagara Falls, Rochester offers amazing outdoor adventures. The city claims to be a "Hike-Bike-Paddle Paradise," and it is! There are 30 multi-use trails in the area, perfect for hiking and bicycling. Rochester was even named one of the most bike-friendly cities in the US because of its bike lanes, roads, and trails. Be sure to visit the Riverview Trail and the Genesee Valley Greenway after you move to Rochester. If you're up to a 40-mile biking trip, you can even visit the "Grand Canyon of the East," Letchworth State Park (just pedal south).
Amazing hiking, snow-shoeing, and cross-country skiing destinations include Highland Park, one of the nation's oldest arboretums, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted; Seneca Park, home to amazing views of the Genesee River and the Seneca Park Zoo; the Genesee River Trail, a beautiful area with fantastic viewing decks, a canoe launch, and a pedestrian bridge; and Genesee Valley Park, a terrific park with fishing docks, beautiful views, picnic areas, and a nature trail.
Whether it is summer or winter, you'll find plenty to do at Durand Eastman Park. This park opened in 1909 and covers 977 acres. It is located on Lake Ontario with 5,000 feet of shoreline, ideal for summer activities such as swimming and sunbathing. The park also offers hiking, kayaking, canoeing, golfing, and snowshoeing.
In addition to fantastic outdoor locations, there are some amazing historic ones, as well. The Susan B. Anthony House was built in 1866. It is a National Historic Landmark, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Anthony was arrested in the front parlor of the house after she tried to vote in the 1872 Presidential Election. She lived in the house until she died in 1906.
The George Eastman House is the world's oldest photography museum. It also contains one of the world's oldest film archives. The house was built by Eastman Kodak founder George Eastman in 1905. The house is a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is an amazing location, featuring more than 400,000 photographs and negatives dating back to the invention of photography and 23,000 films. The collection also includes publications and pieces of technology.
The Charlotte-Genesee Lighthouse dates back to 1822 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The lighthouse is located on Lake Ontario and is a unique, stone lighthouse with an octagonal shape. The lighthouse is open to the public and operates as a museum. It is part of the Seaway Trail, a stunning 518-mile National Scenic Byway that includes important locations along Lake Erie, the Niagara River, the Saint Lawrence River, and Lake Ontario.
And, of course, Rochester is a major city with a large student population – that means you'll also discover hip nightclubs, funky bistros, laid-back cafes, neighborhood pubs, and trendy boutiques and shops. Be sure to stop by the Public Market, a city-run market that dates back to 1905 and features fresh produce, specialty items, ethnic foods, and more. The surrounding Market District offers coffee shops, specialty stores, breweries, and a variety of other businesses.
Rochester is also home to a wide variety of festivals (so many, in fact, that it is often referred to as "Festival City"). Be sure to attend the breathtaking Lilac Festival in May – this event features thousands of beautiful, fragrant lilacs as well as entertainment, live music, a parade, rides for kids, and wine and chocolate tasting.
The Boardwalk Arcade is a unique festival that takes you back in time, when seaside amusement parks were all the rage. Play pinball, skee ball, and more during this summer event. The largest festival on the Erie Canal, Fairport Canal Days, includes music, food, arts and crafts, and wine and beer from local vineyards and breweries.
Other festivals and events in Rochester include the downtown Park Avenue Summer Arts Festival, the Rochester International Airshow, the Juneteenth Festival, the Corn Hill Arts Festival, and the Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival.
What to Consider When Moving to Rochester:
Rochester has been the birthplace of a wide variety of inventions. Eastman Kodak, Xerox, Bausch & Lomb, Gannett, and Western Union all started in the city. While many have since moved their headquarters to other locations, Rochester continues to provide a great place for technological advances, especially with such powerhouse institutions as the University of Rochester and the Rochester Institute of Technology. The city is famous for its imaging and optical science, and Rochester is recognized as the world capital of imaging.
Rochester offers some terrific neighborhoods – be sure to explore as many as you can while looking for your new Rochester apartment to rent. If you want to live right on Lake Ontario, consider apartments in the Charlotte neighborhood. This neighborhood contains Charlotte Beach, a popular destination during the summer. The Port of Rochester, which contains restaurants and coffee shops, is located here.
Corn Hill, located close to downtown, is one of the best-preserved Victorian neighborhoods in the country. It is home to the Corn Hill Art Festival as well as the popular shopping destination, Corn Hill Landing.
If you want to be surrounded by stunning parks, rent in Upper Monroe. This neighborhood is about a mile from downtown. It is bordered by Cobbs Hill Park and is close to Highland Park, home to the annual Lilac Festival. The neighborhood also contains several local restaurants, shops, and businesses.
For terrific nightlife (and plenty of it), East End is a great neighborhood. While residential, this neighborhood is also the main nightlife district. It features many clubs, bars, restaurants, Little Theatre, the Eastman Theatre, and the Eastman School of Music.
Cafes, trendy bars, book stores – if you are a student (or just enjoy a youthful energy), the South Wedge District is located just south of Downtown Rochester. It is just blocks from the University of Rochester and if filled with chic shops and vibrant nightclubs.
Why Rochester Apartments Are Hot:
From an amazing history that includes the Erie Canal to legendary figures that changed the course of history, Rochester still attracts the innovators and the dreamers. Rochester's gorgeous landscape, combined with the fact that is both bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly, provides endless outdoor fun no matter what the season. Add in top-rated universities, terrific festivals and events, culture and fine arts, and awe-inspiring museums and historic sites, and apartments in Rochester promise endless adventures in a terrific location.

Germany-based Nordex has completed installation of a N90/2500 turbine in Hewitt, Minn. – the first turbine of this type to be installed in North America, according to the company. The operator, Wing River Wind LCC, will transmit the turbine's annual yield of 8.828 MWh of electricity into the electric grid owned by Minnesota Power.
Following the installation of this initial turbine, Nordex plans to install 21 additional turbines in Minnesota – resulting in a total installed capacity of 55 MW. This company expects these additional turbines to be operational by 2009.
The N90/2500 turbine, which has a rotor diameter of 90 meters, is equipped with numerous advanced features, Nordex says. Two automatic controls – torque control and pitch control – are designed to improve the turbine's control dynamics and optimize power production. The turbine also includes safety features such as ice sensors and an automatic fire-extinguishing system.

The movie and the man "Riddick" is one of the deadlist frogs you would ever meet. Riddick played by Vin Diesel is a man not a frog, just to be clear. I just like that it sounds like Ribbit Ribbit like a frog. Riddick being the past Lord of the Necromongers would probably not like having his name made fun of. In the movie Riddick has made a deal with Commander Vaako; the location of Furya and a ship to take him there, in exchange for Vaako becoming the next Lord Marshall. Well, they take him to a desolate planet instead and try to kill him. Riddick kills most of his assassinators. But Krone manages to shoot up a rock ledge causing a landslide to burry Riddick. This was all a lead up to keep the story in line and get to what most of this movie is about. Riddick needs to get off the planet. The Planet is full of deadly creatures, one looks like a scorpion but is much larger, more like 50 pounds. The other is a creature that looks a cross between a dog and a leopard. Mostly Riddick is a harden heart kind of guy who can easily kill but he also lives by a code. In this movie they humanize him and make you like him a little more than the bad guys he fights by having him get one of these leopard dog puppies. The dog when grown fights by Riddick's side and alerts Riddick to danger. Riddick finds an abandon outpost (how convenient, without this there would be no movie, he would just die) He sets a bunch of traps and then hits the emergency beacon which scans him and sends out an alert that Riddick a wanted man with a large bounty is here on this planet. Two different teams come and try to claim the bounty. Riddick leaves a note in the blood of one of them to leave him one ship. The rest of the movie is various attempts to catch or kill Riddick and Riddick killing them. I found the one shot of them looking for Riddick and he is sitting on top of their space ship listening to them scurry about in terror of him, while he is peeking through their sun roof and cutting off pieces of a carrot and eating them to be comical. I think it was supposed to show how superior he is but it gave me a chuckle instead of awe. This is the third movie in a series of Riddick movies. From the sounds of the extras on the DVD there will be more Riddick movies. Give it a try or see them in order, Pitch Black 2000, The Chronicles of Riddick 2004 and Riddick 2014.
